    正确答案:C
    解析:A)、D)语法不正确,B)中s[5]的形式只能通过for循环的格式进行赋值,而不能直接赋值。C)中表达式左侧的“[]”说明现在定义一个数组,不需要指明数组长度,而表达式右侧“[]”在后面直接紧跟初始内容时也是不需要指定数组大小的,数组大小直接由初值长度决定。

  • 第3题:

    In any country, the "standard ofliving" means the average person′s share of the goods and services whichthe country produces. Therefore, a country′s standard of living depends firstand foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in thissense is not money, but "goods" such as food and clothing, and"services" such as transport and entertainment.
    The capacity to produce wealth depends uponmany factors, most of which have an effect on one another. To a great extent,wealth depends upon a country′s natural resources, such as coal, gold, andother minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are wellsupplied with coal and minerals, and some are not.
    Next to natural resources comes the abilityto turn them to use. Some countries are perhaps well off in natural resources,but unable to develop their resources. They suffered for many years from civiland external wars. Peaceful political and stable conditions enable a country todevelop its natural resources effectively, and to produce more wealth thananother country equally well served by nature but less well ordered. Anotherimportant factor is the technical efficiency of a country′s people.Industrialized countries that have trained numerous skilled workers andtechnicians produce wealth more than countries whose workers are largelyunskilled.
    A country′s standard of living does notonly depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its ownborders, but also upon what is indirectly produced through international trade.
    For instance, Britain′s wealth isfoodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had todepend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplusmanufacture goods to be traded abroad for the agricultural products. In thisaspect, a country′s wealth is much influenced by its manufacturing capacity,provided that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures. A country′s capacity to produce wealthdepends on all the factors EXCEPT FOR ______

    A.people's share of its goods
    B.political and social stability
    C.qualities of its workers
    D.use of natural resources

    答案:A
    解析:
    细节题。第二、三段指出了决定一个国家创造财富的能力的多种因素,如natural resources,the use of naturalresources,political and social stability,technical efficiency of works等。A项本身是生活标准,不符合题干要求,故选A。

    Chronic Diseases: The World's Leading Killer

    Chronic diseases are the leading cause of death in the world.Yet health experts say
    these conditions are often the most preventable.Chronic diseases include heart disease,
    stroke,cancer,diabetes(糖尿病)and lung disorders.
    The World Health Organization says chronic diseases lead to about seventeen million
    early deaths each year.This United Nations agency expects more than three hundred eighty
    million people to die of chronic diseases by 2015.It says about eighty percent of the deaths
    will happen in developing nations.
    The WHO says chronic diseases now cause two-thirds of all deaths in the Asia-Pacific
    area,ln ten years it could be almost three-fourths.People are getting sick in their most
    economically productive years.In fact,experts say chronic diseases are killing more
    middle-aged people in poorer countries than in wealthier ones.
    The WHO estimates that chronic diseases will cost China alone more than five hundred
    thousand million dollars in the next ten years.That estimate represents the costs of medical
    treatment and lost productivity.Russia and lndia are also expected to face huge economic
    losses.
    Kim Hak-Su is the head of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for
    Asia and the Pacific.Last week in Bangkok he presented a WHO report on the problem.It
    says deaths from chronic diseases have increased largely as the result of economic gains in
    many countries.
    The report details the latest findings from nine countries.They include Brazil,Britain,
    Canada,China,India and Nigeria.The others are Pakistan,Russia and Tanzania.
    Mister Kim says infectious and parasitic(寄生的)diseases have until recently been the
    main killers in Asia and the Pacific.But he says they are no longer the major cause of death in
    most countries.
    Health officials say as many as eighty percent of deaths from chronic diseases could be
    prevented.They say an important tool for governments is to restrict the marketing of alcohol
    and tobacco to young people.Also,more programs are needed to urge healthy eating and
    more physical activity.
    UN officials aim through international action to reduce chronic-disease deaths by two
    percent each year through 2015.They say meeting that target could save thirty-six million
    lives.That includes twenty-five million in Asia and the Pacific.

    How many people in developing countries will probably die of chronic diseases by 2015?
    A: More than 17 million.
    B:More than 380 million.
    C: More than 304 million.
    D: More than 25 mullion.
