Ford
1  Ford’s great strength was the manufacturing process--not invention．Long before he started

a car company，he was a worker, known for picking up pieces of metal and wire and turning them

into machines．He started putting cars together in 1 89 1, although it was by no means the first

popular automobile，the Model T showed the world just how creative Ford was at combining

technology and market．

2 The company’s assembly line alone threw America’s Industrial Revolution into overdrive

(高速运转)．Instead of having workers put together the entire car, Ford’s friends，who were great

toolmakers from Scotland，organized teams that added parts to each Model T as it moved down a

line．By the time Ford’s Highland Park plant was humming(嗡嗡作响)along in 1914，the

world’s first automatic conveyor belt could turn out a car every 93 minutes．

3 The same year Henry Ford shocked the world with t11e$5-a．day minimum Wage scheme．

the greatest contribution he had ever made．The average Wage in the auto industry then was$2.34

for a 9-hour shift．Ford not only doubled that．he also took an hour off the workday．In those

years it was unthinkable that a man could be paid that much for doing something that didn’t

involve an awful lot of training or education．The Wall Street Journal called the plan“an

economic crime’．and critics everywhere laughed at F0rd．

4  But as the wage increased later to daily$10，it proved a critical component of Ford’s dream

to make the automobile accessible(可及的)to a11 The critics were too stupid to understand that

because Ford had lowered his costs per car，the higher wages didn’t matter--except for making it

possible for more people to buy cars．

第一篇

Sleepless at Night
It was a normal summer night．Humidity(湿气)hung in the thick air．

  I couldn’t go to sleep．partly because of my cold and partly because of my expectations for

the next day．My mum had said that tomorrow was going to be a surprise．

  Sweat stuck to my aching body．Finally, I gathered enough strength to sit up．I looked out of

my small window into the night．There was a big bright moon hanging in the sky, giving off a

magic light．    。

  I couldn’t stand the pressure anymore，SO I did what I always do to make myself feel better．1

went to the bathroom and picked up my toothbrush and toothpaste．I cleaned my teeth as if there

was no tomorrow．Back and forth，up and down．

  Then 1 walked downstairs to look for some signs of movement，some life．Gladiator, my cat。

frightened me as he meowed(喵喵地唱出)his sad song．He was on t11e 01d orange couch(长沙

发)，sitting up on his front legs，waiting for something to happen．He looked at me as if to s吼

“I’m lonely, pet me．I need a good hug(紧抱)．”Even the couch begged me to sit on it．

  In one movement I settled down onto the soft couch．This couch represented my parents’

marriage，my birth，and hundreds of other little events．

  As I held Gladiator, my heart started beating heavily．My mind was flooded with questions：

What’s life? Am I really alive? Are you listening to me? Every time I moved my hand down

Gladiator’s body, I had a new thought；each touch sang a different song．

  I forget a11 about the heat and the next day’s surprise．The atmosphere was SO full of warmth

and silence that I sank into its alms．Falling asleep with the big cat in my arms．I felt all my

worries slowly move away．

Human Space Exploration
    While scientists are searching the cause of the Columbia disaster, NASA is moving ahead

with plans to develop a new craft that would replace shuttles(航天飞机)on space station

missions by 2012 and respond quickly to space station emergencies．

    The space agency released the first set of mission needs and requirements several days ago

for me orbital space plane(轨道航天飞机)，which would be designed to transport a crew of four

to and from the International Space Station．

  Although it includes few specifics，the plan states the orbiter(轨道航天飞机)will be safer

cheaper and require less preparation time than the shuttle．It would be able to transport four crew

members by 2012--though it would be available for rescue missions by 2010.NASA says the

craft should be able to transport injured or ill space station crew members to“definitive(决定性

的)medical care” within 24 hours．

    The release of the requirements showed NASA remains focused on the long-term priorities

 of space exploration，even as questions exist concerning the loss of Columbia and its

 seven．member crew on February l，2003．．

    Expels at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville，Alabama，have been working for

 years on a successor to the shuttle．The project，known as the Space Launch Initiative(倡议)，

was divided last year into two parts----one focusing on a future launch vehicle，the other on a

 space station orbiter．The orbiter is expected to be ready sooner．

    The program’s managers say NASA officials have told them not to alter Space Launch

Initiative in light of the Columbia disaster．

  U．S．President George W：Bush asked Congress for about US$1 billion for Space Launch

Initiative in 2004，funds that would be almost equally split between the Orbital Space Plane and

Next Generation Launch Technology．

41 NASA plans to design the new space craft to

  A control the International Space Station．

  B carry astronauts to the International Space Station．

  C transport equipment to the International Space Station

  D train astronauts in space flights．

42 Besides its main mission．the orbiter would also be used as

  A a medical research center．

  B a space station．

  C a space ambulance．

  D a passenger plane.

43 The design of the orbiter indicates

  A NASA's determination to continue space exploration．

  B NASA's disadvantage in space technology．

  C the great pressure from Congress on NASA．

  D a heavy defeat for NASA．

44 When did NASA start working on a successor to the shuttle?

  A One year before the Columbia disaster.

  B One year after the Columbia disaster．

  C Immediately after the Columbia disaster.    ‘

  D  Years before the Columbia disaster．

45 According to the passage，the 1 billion funds，if granted，would

  A be used to rebuild the International Space Station．

  B be awarded to the scientists working at NASA．

  C be shared by the two projects under the Space Launch Initiative

  D be spent on the investigation of the Columbia disaster．

False Fear of Big Fish
Many people believe sharks(鲨鱼)are dangerous and will always try to hurt or even kill

humans．-(46)

  A shark exhibition at the National Aquarium(水族馆)in Baltimore，US，proves this．

Visitors can touch young sharks．see their eggs develop and watch a dozen different species

swim smoothly around a huge tank．

  Most people fail to realize that shark attacks don’t happen very often．Humans are mote

likely to be killed by lightning than by a shark．——(47)There，kids Call learn，from an

early age，not to fear sharks．

    ‘'People fear what they don’t know，”said Nancy Hotchkiss。an organizer of the exhibition．

“Sharks have been around for 400 million years and play 1til important role in the ocean’s food

chain．We want people to discover that sharks are amazing animals that need our respect and

protection．”

(48)A study ,published in January in the US magazine，Science，found that

almost all recorded shark species have fallen by half in the past eight to 15 years．

  Thousands of sharks are hunted in Asia for special foods，such as shark fin(鱼翅)soup．And

many others get caught in nets，while fishermen are hunting other fish．——(49)

  “Some fishing methods are actually cleaning out the ocean for sharks，”said Dave Schofield，

the manager of the aquarium’s ocean health program me．——(50)

A They Call watch them develop inside their eggs and fee! the skin of the older swimmers

B A shocking 1 00 million sharks are killed every year around the world by humans．

C In fact,94 per cent of the world’s 400 species are harmless to humans

D It is a worrying situation and some areas have put measures in place to protect these special

  fish．    ’    、

E And to make this point clear, the museum has set up a special touching pool for children．

F More than half of the sharks caught are smaller than 1 metra long.

    Migrant(移民的)Workers

In me past twenty years, there has been all increasing tendency for workers to move from

one country to another．While some countries have restricted(限制)most         (51)to

local people，others have attracted and welcomed migrant workers．This is particularly the case

in the Middle East,        (52)increased 0il incomes have enabled many countries to call

in outsiders to improve local facilities(设施)．Thus the Middle East has attracted oil-workers

(53)the U．S．A．and Europe．It has also brought in workers from many other countries，       (54)South Korea and Japan．

In view of the difficult living and working        (55)in the Middle East，it is not

surprising that the pay is high to attract suitable workers．Many engineers and technicians．Can

            (56) at least twice as much money in the Middle East as they Carl in their Own

country, and this is a major          (57)．

Sometimes a disadvantage has a compensating(补偿的)advantage．For example，the

             (58) living conditions often lead t0 increased friendship when workers have to

(S9)on each other for safety and comfort．In a similar way，many migrant workers

Can save large sums of money partly because of the        (60)of entertainment(娱乐)

facilities．The work is often complex and full of problems but this merely presents greater

challenge to engineers who prefer to find solutions to problems rather than do——(61)

work in their home country．

One major problem which         (62) migrant workers in the Middle East is that their

jobs are temporary ones．They are nearly always on       (63)，so it is not easy for them

to plan ahead with great confidence．This is to be          (64)since no country welcomes a

large number of foreign workers as permanent residents．In any       (65)，migrant

workers accept this disadvantage，along“也others，because of the considerable financial

benefits which they receive．

    重建国际空间站，选项B的意思是颁发给在NASA工作的科学家，这两个选项都与原

    文意思不符。最后一段说，若10亿美元的款项获得国会的批准，这笔款项基本上平

    分给the Orbital Space Plane和Next Generation Launch Technology这两个研究项目，

    故C为正确答案。

第5部分：补全短文

46正确答案为C。  文章第一段第一句的意思是，很多人认为鲨鱼是危险的，总是试图

    伤害甚至威胁人类的性命。选项C的意思是：实际上，世界上400多种(鲨鱼)中

    94％的鲨鱼对人类是无害的。此旬的意思和第一句联系起来语意通顺，合乎逻辑，故

    选C。

47正确答案为E。  And to make this。point clear,，。the museum has set up a special touching

    pool for children：为了清楚地说明这一点，博物馆专门为孩子们搭建了一个可以进行

    触摸(鲨鱼)的水池。第二段主要讲鲨鱼并不经常攻击人类，为了证明这一点，博物

    馆……选项E放入空格处很连贯，与原文意思相符，故E为正确答案。

48正确答案为B。  此段的第一句被删除了，要求考生补全。空格后面举例说明过去8

    至15年内鲨鱼种群消亡了多少，选项B(A shocking 100million sharks are killed every

    year around the world by humans．)显然是本段的主题句，概括本段的意思，故B为正

    确答案。

49正确答案为F。空格前面讲的是渔民们捕杀鲨鱼的事情，选项F具体谈到被捕杀的鲨

    鱼有多大，选项F与前面叙述的内容形成一种逻辑上的连贯关系，故F为正确答案。

50正确答案为D。文章最后一段谈到现在的一些捕鲨方式快把鲨鱼捕尽了，选项D的意

    思是：这种情况令人担忧，有些地区已经采取措施来保护这些特殊的鲨鱼(It is a

    worrying situation and some areas have put measures in place t0 protect these special

    fish．)，可见D是正确的。

第6部分：完形填空

51正确答案为B。文章的第一句说的是：在过去的20年里有着一种不断上升的趋势，

    即工人从一个国家移动到另一个国家。工人从一个国家移动到另一个国家当然是为了

    找工作。因此下面这句话中填“．jobs”(工作)是合适的。“acts”是“动作”的意思，

   _“activities”是“活动”，“uses”是“使用”。

52正确答案为D。前面的句子是这么讲的：在中东尤其如此。这是一个地点状语从句，

    在四个选项中只有“where”能引起地点状语从句。其它的选项填入后，生成的都是

    错误的句子。

53正确答案为A。“来自于”哪个国家，英文用“from”。。

54正确答案为C。很显然，  整个句子的意思是：中东引进了包括韩国和日本在内的许

    多国家的工人。因此“including”(包括)是正确的答案。

55正确答案为B。所在的句子的意思是：考虑到中东艰苦的生活和工作条件，用高工资

    吸引合适的工人也就不奇怪了。“条件”英语用“conditions”。“role”是“作用”，

    “difficulty”是“困难”，“event”是“事件”。这些选项跟句子内容不相关。

56正确答案为A。第二段的第二句(接55中提到的那个句子)的意思是：许多工程师

    和技术员在中东挣的工资至少是在他们自己国家的两倍，这是一个主要的吸引力。可

    见“earn”(挣)是合适的选择。

57正确答案为D。56中的后一个小句中提到了“吸引力”。“吸引力”英语用“attraction”。

58正确答案为C。第三段的第一个句子是这么说的：有时候，不利的地方也可以从有利

    的地方中得到补偿。这是个主题句。接着应是举例说明。后半个句子说的是：当工人

    们不得不为了安全和舒适相互依赖时就加深了友谊。这是一种得到补偿的有利的东

    西，那么前半句空格中应填入的最合适的词显然是“difficult”(困难的)。“necessary”

    是“必须的”，“possible”是“可能的”，“good”是“好的”。这些选项填入后，句子

    前半部分表达的不是不利的地方，而是有利的地方，跟主题句不能构成连贯的语段。

59正确答案为A。58中已经说到了“相互依赖”。“相互依赖”英语用“depend on”。

60正确答案为B。所在句子是对主题旬的进一步说明。该旬的意思是：同样地，由于缺

    乏娱乐的设施，许多迁移来的工人可以积蓄大量的钱。这也是一种补偿。“缺乏”英

    语用“lack”。    ．

61正确答案为A。所在句子的意思是：工作往往是复杂的，问题很多，但是，这充其量

    是对工程师提出了挑战，而工程师们倒是愿意解决问题，而不愿意在自己的国家做一

    般性的工作。“一般性的”用routine。

62正确答案为B。最后一段的第一句话的意思是：影响来中东的工人的一个主要问题是，

    他们的工作是临时性的。“affects”是“影响”的意思。

63正确答案为C。62中谈到的句子是最后一段的主题句。接着应该是说明。63所在的

    句子就是说明。意思是：他们差不多总是订合同的，因此不大可能很有信心地超前安

    排。“合同”英语用“contract节。

64正确答案为D。所在句子是对上一个句子(63中的句子)的解释。因此用“expected”

    是正确的。全句的意思是：这些是在预计之中的，  因为没有一个国家会欢迎许多外

    国工人成为他们的永久居民。“suggested”是“表明”、“建议”的意思，“reported”是

    “报道”，“argued”是“认为”。

65正确答案为D。文章的最后一个句子表明，迁移来的工人显得很无奈。整个句子的意

    思是：不管怎么样，迁移来的工人只能接受这种以及其他方面的不利之处，因为他们

    得到的经济方面的好处还是很多的。“不管怎么样”，英文用“in any case”。
