Passage Four
Every culture and every country in the world celebrates New Year, but not everyone does it the same way. The countries in North America and Europe welcome New Year on January the first. This practice began with the Romans in the Middle East, New Year is when spring begins. People in China and Vietnam celebrate it on the first day of the Spring Festival, which is the first day of their calendar based on the moon. Rosh Hashana, which is the Jewish (犹太人的) New Year, comes at the end of summer. The Hindus (印度教教徒 ) in India celebrate the first day of each season, so they have four New Years.
In all these cultures, there is a practice of making noise. People made noise in ancient times to drive away the evil spirits (妖精) from their homes. Today making noise is more of a custom than a religious rim
In the United States, many people stay up until midnight on New Year's Eve to watch the clock pass from one year to the next. Friends often gather together at a party on New Year's Eve, and when the new year comes, all ring bells, blow' whistles, sing songs, and kiss each other. A favorite Scottish song which everyone sings together is Auld Lang Sync. The words tell of old friends and good times.
In all cultures, New Year's Day is a time when people think of new beginnings. They want to make the coming year better than the last one. Many people in the United States make New Year resolutions. These are specific promises that they make to improve their behavior, change their habits, and become better people. There are many jokes about how a person keeps his or her New Year resolutions.
48. In ancient times, the practice of making noise was meant ______.
A. to keep the evil spirits away
B. to have fun
C. to celebrate the coming of the new year
D. to keep to a custom
正确答案：A48．答案为A 此考题为细节题。根据文章第2段第2句People made noise in ancient times to drive away the evil spirits from their homes，就可肯定A正确。

第4题：
Valmont owns 98% of the stock of Barnes Corporation, a manufacturer. During the current year, Barnes has operating income of $64,000, interest income of $10,000 from investments, and passive losses from investments in limited partnerships of $20,000. Barnes Corporation pays $12,000 in dividends. What is Barnes' taxable income for the current year?()
A.$34,000
B.$48,600
C.$54,000
D.$62,000
E.$74,000
答案：E
解析：原句句意为瓦尔蒙特拥有制造商巴恩斯公司98%的股份。本年度，巴恩斯的营业收入为64000美元，投资利息收入为10000美元，有限合伙企业投资的被动损失为20000美元。巴恩斯公司支付12000美元的股息。巴恩斯当年的应税收入是多少？由应税收入的定义得，应税收入，即生产、经营、服务收入，是指纳税人的商品（产品）销售收入、劳务服务收入、营业收入、工程价款结算收入、工业性作业收入以及其他业务收入，所以应税收入为64000+10000=74000美元

第6题：
Questions 117-120refer to the following questions.
Summer Travel Sale
Figures published yesterday in a report on the national housing market show that consumers purchased more new homes in September than in any month yet this year. The increase of 14.1% over last month directly contradicts the predictions of market analysts.
" It was a real shock to most of us," admitted Lashawnda Cassano, chief economist with the firm Capital Resources, LLTG." New-home sales were down so much in August and July that we simply expected the trend to continue. But this changes everything."
The report states that 71,000 homes were sold in the month of September. That is well above the figure of 62,000 sold in August and July's one of 64,000. Previous months had seen the num-ber holding steady at around 68,000. These new numbers are sure to encourage investors, who have been hesitant to put their trust in the country's economy since last spring's downturn. All three national stock markets jumped up at least ten points on the news.
The report is also likely to boost construction of new homes, as builders interpret it as a rise in consumer demand. However, if they react too enthusiastically, they risk flooding the market with new houses which could have the effect of pushing down prices and cutting into the profits of the real estate industry.
What does this article mainly discuss?A.An investment firm's sales figures
B.A recession's effect on the real estate industry
C.Yesterday's stock market activity
D.An economic report's unexpected findings答案：D解析：第一段第一句中说，全国住宅市场报告书中显示，9月份的数据对市场分析师的预测作了直接否定。然后继续说关于这个数据的分析和报告对房地产业的影响。因此正确答案是D。 -

Survey Found Many Women Misinformed About Cancer Sixty-three percent of American women think that if there's no family history of cancer,they're not likely to develop the disease,a new survey found. In fact,most people who develop cancer have no family history of cancer,according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists ( ACOG)（美国妇产科医师学会）,which sponsored the survey.
"Too many women are dying from cancer,"Dr.Douglas W.Laube,ACOG's immediate past president, said during a Friday teleconference."An estimated 200,070 women will die in the U.S.this year,and over 600 , 078 women will be diagnosed with cancer.The results of this survey found a worrisome（令人担忧的） gap in women's knowledge about cancer."
Based on the findings,ACOG is increasing its efforts to educate women about cancer and the need for regular screening tests.
Although the survey found many misconceptions（错误观念）about cancer , 76 percent of women surveyed did say they feel knowledgeable about how they can reduce their risk of the disease. However,only 52 percent said they were doing enough to reduce that risk.And 10 percent said they hadn't done anything in the past years to lower their risk.17 percent said they wouldn't change their lifestyles, even if changes would lower their cancer risk. Many women said they were afraid to undergo screening out of fear of finding cancer.
Twenty percent said they didn't want to know if they had cancer. In response to these findings,ACOG will launch on Oct.29 a new website-Protect & Detect:What Women Should Know about Cancer.The guide is designed to help women to take charge of their health and improve their understanding of their risk of cancer-and the lifestyle steps they can take to cut that risk.Most American women know too little about how to lower their cancer risk.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned答案：B解析：由文章第三段最后一句话“The results of this survey found a worrisome gap in women ' s knowledge about cancer.”可知，很多美国女性对癌症知识了解很少。故选A。
由文章第二段“In fact , most people who develop cancer have no family history of cancer…”可知，没有家族癌症病史的人也会患癌症。故选B。
通读全文，文章中并未提及男性患癌症的情况，因此也就无从比较死于癌症的女性和男性数量的多少。故选C。
由文章第五段“…76 percent of women surveyed did say they feel knowledgeable about how they can reduce their risk of the disease.”可知，大部分女性对于如何减少癌症风险还是有一定了解的。故选B。
由文章第六段第三句话“17 percent said they wouldn ' t change their lifestyles , even if changes would lower their cancer risk.”可知，即使改变生活方式会降低癌症风险，但是有些女性还是不愿意去改变。故选A。
由文章第七段第一句话“Many women said they were afraid to undergo screening out of fear of finding cancer.”可知，很多美国女性因为害怕被检查出癌症而不敢去检查。故选A。
由文章最后一段可知，针对这些发现，AGOG将建立一个网站来指导女性了解自己的健康状况及提高她们对自己会患癌症的风险的理解，并未提及AGOG对女性关于癌症的教育受到了人们的感激。故选C。 -
