The Antarctica treaty applies to all areas (the high seas excepted) below latitude 60 degrees south. This line, running around the globe some2,000 miles from the South Pole itself, just misses the lower tip of South America,and is well below the Cape of Good Hope and New Zealand. There are a number ofsmall islands between this line and the Antarctic continent, but the waters here areknown to mariners as the screaming Sixties because there is so little obstruction tothe world-circling winds.In contrast, in the northern hemisphere, the lands lying above the sixtiethparallel of latitude include much of Scandinavia, Siberia and Alaska, all ofGreenland and Iceland, with a total population of several million. Great mountainshelp subdue the winds; a spur of the Gulf Stream and part of the Japan Currenttemper the frigid airs of this polar region. This, and the presence of the Arctic Oceanin the center of the great land mass, give the area a markedly different conformationand climate from that around the opposite pole.Antarctica seems a vast basin of rock, filled and overflowing with a load of ice.In the heart of the continent it is almost as high as the summits of the Alps, yetsoundings show that in some places the rock floor is below sea level.Actually, the ice accumulation is less than it was perhaps 1,000 years ago. Itsseaward flow is not so voluminous as it once was, and as a result there are patches ofbare rock here and there along the coast and inland. They were scoured clear of soilages ago, but one may sometimes find moss or lichens growing, though virtually noflowering plants.41. Unlike the North Pole, the South Pole isA. not fixed in one positionB. the same as the South Magnetic PoleC. on land covered with iceD. on water42. The large area in the southern hemisphere is taken up byA. the major part of South AmericaB. oceansC. AustraliaD. Africa43. The makers of the Antarctic Treaty clearly wanted toA. prevent the Russians from settling in AntarcticaB. prevent possession or control by any nationC. conserve its natural resourcesD. insure the safety of the natives of Antarctica44. Land animals on the Antarctic continentA. are insects onlyB. are relics of the prehistoric pastC. are fur-bearing animals and cold-bloodedD. exist only in the fossil stateQuestions 45 to 48 are based on the following passage:出自课本11.Smoking and Cancer吸烟和癌Americans smoke six thousand million cigarettes every year (1970 figures).This is roughly the equivalent of 4,195 cigarettes a year for every person in thecountry of 18 years of age or more. It is estimated that 51% of American men smokecompared with 34% of American women.Since 1939, numerous scientific studies have been conducted to determinewhether smoking is a health hazard. Research teams have conducted studies thatshow beyond all reasonable doubt that tobacco smoking, particularly cigarettesmoking is associated with a shortened life expectancy.Cigarette smoking is believed by most research workers in this field to be animportant factor in the development of cancer of the lungs and cancer of the throat.Male cigarette smokers have a higher death rate from heart disease thannon-smoking males. (Female smokers are thought to be less affected because theydo not breathe in the smoke so deeply.) The majority of doctors and researchersconsider these relationships proved their point and say, Give up smoking. If youdont smoke-dont start!Some doctors and research workers-though their small number is decreasedeven further-are less sure of the effect of cigarette smoking on health. Theyconsider the increase in respiratory diseases and various forms of cancer maypossibly be explained by other factors in the human environment-atmosphericpollution, increased nervous stress, chemical substance in processed food, orchemical pesticides that are now being used by farmers in large quantities to destroyinsects and small animals. Smokers who develop cancer or lung diseases, they say,may also, by coincidence, live in industrial areas or eat more canned food. Gradually,however, research is isolating all other possible factors and proving them to bestatistically irrelevant.Apart from the scientific statistics, it might be helpful to look at what smokingtobacco actually does to the human body. Smoke is a mixture of gases, vaporizedchemicals, small particles of ash, and other solids. There is also nicotine, which is apowerful poison, and black tar. As the smoke is breathed in, all these componentsform deposits on the membranes of the lungs. One point of concentration is wherethe air tube, or bronchus, divides. Most lung cancer begins at this point.Smoking also affects the heart and blood vessels. It is known to be related toBeurgers disease, a narrowing of the small vessels in the hands and feet that cancause great pain and lead even to the amputation of limbs.While all tobacco smoking affects life and expectancy and health, cigarettesmoking appears to have a much greater effect than cigar or pipe smoking. However,nicotine consumption is not decreased by the latter forms, and current researchshows a causal relationship between all forms of smoking and cancer of the mouthand throat. Filters and low tar tobacco are claimed to make smoking to some extentsafer, but they can only reduce, not eliminate the hazards.45. What can we mainly get from the passage?A. Smoking is harmful to health.B. Women smokers are healthier than men smokers.C. The increased diseases have something to do with pollution.D. Smoking cigarettes is more harmful than smoking pipes.46. Cigarette smoking is believed by doctors to _A. reduce nervous stressB. causes lung and throat cancerC. make life shorter but excitingD. broaden the blood vessels47.

What is Beurgers disease?A. It is a kind of lung cancer.B. It happens in the hands and feet.C. It happens in the heart while smokingD.

As a result, many users now findthey cant write even familiar words though they can type them quickly andcorrectly on a computer keyboard. To make matters worse, some people even forgethow to write at all. Currently, 90 percent of students in America, a nation which hascompletely adapted to everyday use of computers and the Internet, are unable towrite properly and clearly because they have been typing onto keyboards since earlychildhood. Many younger teachers also have trouble writing clearly on blackboard.A university student never imagined that he would lose the chance to get his first jobbecause of his handwriting problem. Another student, for fear that she wouldnt beable to write well when doing the test papers for the university entrance examination,quit using a computer for two months before the exam.It is not surprising, an expert of psychological medicine said. The occurrencecan be attributed to several factors. Firstly, its the result of social developments andthe work needs of constant computer use. Secondly, it relates to introverted(内向旳)personal character and lack of self-control abilities especially for those students whoindulge in playing computer games.Experts also think that many activities on computers make peoples thoughtssimplified, which also affects their lives in other aspects, such as how theycommunicate with others and the way they think.Writing can strengthen human bodys functions in psychology and physiology,which cannot be substituted by typing into a computer. Relevant research indicatesthat inscribing or drawing something on paper can leave a deep impression in thelanguage processing areas of the central nervous system in the brain.

They carefully chose a busy comer for their location.They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecuerestaurant, then another driven-in, but in their new operation, they offered a new,shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this minimal selection theyadded one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. TheirFrench fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers haddeveloped a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on theircooks sticking to that routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular,particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime.The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copiesof their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success untilthey met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he wasselling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of thebrothers fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise other copies of theirrestaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu, theequipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches.Today McDonalds is literally a household name. Its names for its sandwicheshave come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watchedpeople rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonalds had over $1billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the m
