In 1996, over 250,000,000 people visited areas run by the National Park Service. Experts predict that by , 500,000,000 people per year will visit the parks. As a result, people are trying to think of ways to protect the parks from the crowds. The crowding of the parks has caused several problems. One is that there is not enough space for all of the people who want to use the parks. To cope with this problem, national parks may require reservations months in advance for some spots. The Park Service may also raise entrance fees at these places. Another problem caused by increased park use is pollution. Some garbage and waste can be cleaned up, and the cleanup can be paid for by increased entrance fees. To cut down on noise pollution and air pollution, officials may decrease the number of cars allowed in parks. If this happens, people may use buses to travel around the parks. Officials may also limit the use of jet-skis, snowmobiles (摩托雪橇), motorboats, and sightseeing helicopters and planes. The parks are also threatened by development that is going on around them. For example, around Yellow Stone Park, many motels (汽车旅馆), golf courses, resorts, and other tourist attractions have been built. Some of these developments affect areas that are used by animals. People will have to learn to agree about ways to protect the parks. If they do not, there will soon be no reason to visit these national treasures. 41. By , the number of visitors will rise by ______ per year. A. 250 million B. 500 million C. 2.5 billion D. 5 billion 42. If you want to visit the national parks, you may have to _____ in the future. A. pay less than before B. stay there for months C. book the ticket before months D. fill in a form to apply for the ticket 43. Entrance fees may be increased _______. A. just for the benefit of the National Park Service B. either to limit the number of visitors or to pay for the cleaner C. not only to protect the animals but to reduce the noise pollution D. merely for the development of the national parks 44. What does the underlined sentence in the passage mean? A. People are not supposed to visit the national parks for fear that they will harm the animals. B. Only if more man-made tourist attractions are built will more people visit the parks. C. It is reasonable to keep the balance between the development of the parks and the reserve. D. People will not visit the national parks since there are no golf courses and resorts. 45. What can be inferred from the passage? A. High fees may probably keep some people out of parks. B. Helicopters and planes will not be used in parks any longer. C. The bus will become the only toot in parks with the purpose of pollution reduction. D. The National Park Service welcomes as many visitors as possible. B All her life, my mother wanted busy children. It was very important that her house should remain at all times clean and tidy. You could turn your back for a moment in my mother’s house, leave a half-written letter on the dining room table, a magazine open on the chair, and turn around to find that my mother had “put it back where it belonged,” as she explained. My wife, one of her first visits to my mother’s house, placed a packet of biscuits on an end table and went to the kitchen to fetch a drink. When she returned, she found the packet had been removed. Confused, she set down her drink and went back to the kitchen for more biscuits, only to return to find that her drink had disappeared. Up to then she had guessed that everyone in my family held onto their drinks, so as not to make water rings on the end tables. Now she knows better. These disappearance had a confusing effect on our family. We were all inclined to (有……的 倾向) forgetfulness, and it was common for one of us, upon returning from the bathroom, to find that every sign of his work in progress had disappeared suddenly. “ Do you remember what I was doing?” was a question frequently asked, but rarely answered. Now my sister has developed a second-hand love of cleaning windows, and my brother does the cleaning in his house, perhaps to avoid having to be the one to lift his feet. I try not to think about it too much, but I have at this later time started to dust the furniture once a week. We have all become busy persons. 46. Which of the following is TRUE about my mother? A. she enjoyed removing others’ drinks. B. She became more and more forgetful. C. She preferred to do everything by herself. D. She wanted to keep her house in good order. 47. My wife could not find her biscuits and drink in my mother’s house because _______. A. she had already finished them B. my mother had taken them away C. she forgot where she had left them D. someone in my family was holding them 48. The underlined part suggests that my sister ______. A. is happy to clean windows B. loves to clean used windows C. is fond of cleaning used windows D. likes cleaning windows as my mother did 49. How many persons are mentioned in the passage? A. Six. B. Seven. C. Five. D. Four. 50. This passage mainly tells us that ______. A. my mother often made us confused B. my family members had a poor memory C. my mother helped us to form a good habit D. my wife was surprised when she visited my mother C A new system that scans customers’ fingerprints and subtracts the grocery bill from their bank accounts has taken supermarkets in Germany to use the new system. “Almost a quarter of our customers pay with their fingers,” said an employee at the headquarters. Edeka has tried the system at 70 of its supermarkets. It says it will introduce it at others because customers like it. “At first we thought that only the young who really keep up with the latest technology would be interested, but we were wrong,” said Stefan Sewoester from IT Werke. “Almost two-thirds of the people who use the system are 40 and older,” he said. IT Werke, a computer company, is one of the pioneers of fingerprint payment software in Germany. It has helped about 150 shops, canteens and bars to put in the fingerprint scanning machines. Each costs about euros. To sign up for the service, customers must have their fingerprints taken and leave their addresses and banking details with the shop. The shop then takes the cost of goods directly out of the customer’s bank account. “It is especially a good thing for elderly people. Now they do not have to remember their pin to pay with their bank cards, or to scratch around for their glasses or cash.” Sewoester said. The stores benefit from the system too. It saves more than time in the check-out line. It also cuts out the hidden costs of accepting electronic card payments. 46. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. Pay with Fingers. B. New Development in Technology. C. Supermarket Revolution. D. Change in Computer Software. 47. According to the passage, the fingerprint system________. A. was invented by the Edeka supermarket chain B. is preferred by most American customers C. is more popular with young people D. has caused payment revolution in Germany 48. To apply to pay with fingers, customers are required to do all of the following except__________. A. have their fingerprints taken B. leave their addresses C. have their phones connected with computers D. give the shop information about the bank accounts 49. Why do elderly people benefit much from the fingerprint machine? A. They don’t like to pay in cash. B. They are always forgetful. C. They will spend less time on shopping. D. They always fail to find their bank cards. 50. What do we know by inference from the passage? A. Fewer shops will try the new software because of the cost. B. IT Werke should be the largest computer company in Germany. C. The new service requires certain personal information. D. The new change in payment only benefits elderly people. 第二节 信息匹配 （共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 10 分） 请阅读下列有关礼品介绍的应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息，并在答题卡上将对 应题号的相应选项字母涂黑。 A.Mauritius, an island lying off the southeast Africa in the Indian Ocean.

Whoever hasn’t received praise for good deeds wouldn’t study hard later, otherwise those praise would work harder. So praise can be effective between kids and adults. Most people like to be praised and they may long for approval and recognition from others. Therefore praising a kid for his good behavior can help him grow healthy. To be sure, not every use of praise is a calculated approach to control children’s behavior. Sometimes we praise kids just because we’re fully pleased by what they’ve done. Even then, however, it’s worth looking more closely. Praise may increase kids’ dependence on us. So I think while we admit the advantage of praise we can’t ignore the disadvantage of abusing it. When our life is filled with sunshine, we need a bit rain to make our heads clear. Too much praise often makes people, especially the young, become conceited and arrogant, which thus spoils them. No person can live on praise all his life without being hurt.
