  • 第14题：

    Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

    An understanding of man's effect on the balance of nature is crucial (关键的) to being able to find the appropriate remedial action. It is a very common belief that the problems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor people living in poor countries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction. This is not true. The actual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have on nature. Developing countries do have an effect on their environment, but it is the populations of richer countries that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.

    For example, tropical forests are known to be essential to the balance of nature, yet we are destroying them at a great rate. They are being cleared not to benefit the natives of that country, but to satisfy the needs of rich countries. Central American forests are being destroyed for grassland to make pet food in the United States cheaper; in Papua slew Guinea, forests are destroyed to supply cheaper cardboard packaging for Japanese electronic products; in Burma and Thailand, forests have been destroyed to produce more attractive furniture in Singapore and Hong Kong. Therefore, a rich person living thousands of miles away may cause more tropical forest destruction than a poor person living in the forest itself.

    In short, it is everybody's duty to safeguard the future of mankind—not only through population control, but by being more aware of the effect his actions have on nature. Nature is both fragile and powerful. It is very easily destroyed; on the other hand, it can easily destroy its most dangerous enemy—man.

    31.According to the first paragraph, people usually believe that .

    A.poor people in poor countries contribute to the imbalance of nature

    B. rich people know how to protect the environment by taking actions

    C. people in poor areas know a lot about the birth control

    D. rich people in rich countries have done a lot to balance nature


    正确答案：A

    Prolonging Human Life

    1.Prolonging human life has increased the size of the human population.Many people alive today would have died of childhood diseases if they had been born 100 years ago.Because more people live longer,there are more people around at any given time.In fact,it is a decrease in death rates,not an increase in birthrates,that has led to the population explosion.
    2.Prolonging human life has also increased the dependency load.In all societies,people who are disabled or too young or too old to work are dependent on the rest of society to provide for them. In hunting and gathering cultures,old people who could not keep up might be left behind to die.In times of famine,infants might be allowed to die because they could not survive if their parents starved,whereas if the parents survived they could have another child.
    3.In most contemporary societies,people feel a moral obligation to keep people alive whether they can work or not. We have a great many people today who live past the age at which they want to work or are able to work.We also have rules which require people to retire at a certain age.Unless these people were able to save money for their retirement,somebody else must support them.In the United States many retired people live on social security checks which are so little that they must live in near poverty. Older people have more illness than young or middle-aged people.Unless they have wealth or private or government insurance,they must often"go on welfare"if they have a serious illness.
    4.When older people become senile or too weak and ill to care for themselves,they create grave problems for their families.In the past and in some traditional cultures,they would be cared for at home until they died.Today,with most members of a household working or in school,there is often no one at home who can care for a sick or weak person.To meet this need,a great many nursing homes and convalescent hospitals have been built. These are often profit-making organizations, although some are sponsored by religious and other nonprofit groups.While a few of these institutions are good,most of them are simply"dumping grounds"for the dying in which"care"is given by poorly paid,overworked,and under-skilled personnel.

    Many people would have died of_______if they had been born 100 years ago.
    A:too weak and ill
    B:hunting and gathering cultures
    C:childhood diseases
    D:no one at home
    E:epidemic diseases
    F: traditional cultures

    答案：C
    解析：
    文章第一段提出了延长寿命会造成地球人口数量增加的观点，并解释了导致这一现象的原因。因此答案应当选择选项B。
    文章第二段主要讲的是延长人寿命的同时也使要照顾的人数增加了。因此选择D项。
    文章第三段主要解释为什么说老年人会是社会沉重的负担。因此选择A项。
    第四段主要讲的是当今社会老年人生活的状况，及他们生病或身体变弱后会受到的照顾。因此选择F项。
    文章第一段提到如果出生在100年前，很多人会早早死于儿童疾病。因此选项C是正确的。
    文章第二段讲到在过去的狩猎和采集文化时代，部落里跟不上队伍的老年人会被撤下任其死去。因此选项B是正确的。
    第四段第一句讲到，在如今的社会老人生病或变得虚弱会给家庭带来很大的负担。因此选项A是正确的。
    文章最后一段描述现代社会的人们工作和生活的压力很大，大部分情况下没有人能留在家里照顾老人，因此选项D是正确的。

    B

    will inhabit

    C

    will have inhabited

    D

    is going to inhabit


    正确答案： A
    解析：
    句意：到2060年的时候，将有相当于现在两倍的人居住在地球上。By the year 2060是By后加表示将来时间的介词短语在句中作时间状语，句子的谓语要用将来完成时态，表示到将来某个时间为止的动作。inhabit意为“居住于；栖息”，是及物动词，其后通常跟地点。如果地点作主语，要用被动语态，因此A选项正确。
