Reading Comprehension Passage 1Many people dump (倾倒) most of their garbage in sanitary landfills (垃圾填埋池). Now the landfills are overflowing(泛滥) with garbage. People are noticing that certain items in the garbage arent breaking down and mixing with the soil. Things made of glass, plastics and tin change little over years and they are piling up (堆积). We need to do something about it. But how? Recycling is the answer to the problem. People in many countries are trying to use these items again to make new things. It is important because it conserves (保护，保持，保存) natural resources and saves energy. For example, recycling paper saves trees. Recycling also saves space in landfills. Lets work together to make our world beautiful.1. Garbage overflows because _.A. the landfills are too smallB. there are many items of itC. people dump most of it into landfillsD. people dont know where to dump it2. Which item can mix with soil?A.

Recycling is to _.A. save treesB. preserve resourcesC. use space to dump garbageD. use old items to make new onesPassage 2When you take a walk in any of the cities in the West, you often see a lot of people walking dogs. It is still true that a dog is the most useful and faithful animal in the world, but the reason why people keep a dog has changed. In the old days people used to train dogs to protect themselves against attacks from other beasts. And later they came to realize that a dog was not only useful for protection but willing to obey his master. For example, when people used dogs for hunting, the dog would not eat what was caught without permission.But now people in cities need not protect themselves against attacks of animals. Why do they keep dogs, then? Some people keep dogs to protect themselves from robbery. But the most important reason is for companionship. For a child, a dog is his best friend when he has no friends to play with. For young couples, a dog is their child when they have no children. For old couples, a dog is also their child when their real children have grown up. So the main reason why people keep dogs has changed from protection to friendship.6. According to the passage, in the old days people trained dogs _ .A. for protection against robberyB. just for funC. for companionshipD. for protection against other animals7. The word “companionship” in Paragraph 2 means _.A. worshipB. treasureC. friendly relationshipD. partnership8. The dogs were used for hunting because _ .A. they were good huntersB. they obeyed their mastersC. they were useful for protectionD. they did not eat other animals9. The most important reason for people to keep dogs now is that _.A. they need companionB. they like children C. they enjoy huntingD. they want to protect themselves10. We can infer (推断) from the passage that _.A. dogs can be helpful to those who need companyB. city people always feel lonelyC. dogs can be interestingD. the city can be a very dangerous placePassage 3The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may not be a terrorist with a gun , but the man with the portable computer in business class. In the last 15 years, pilots have reported well over 100 incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference. The source of this interference remains unconfirmed, but increasingly, experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers, radio and cassette players and mobile telephones. RTCA, an organization which advises the aviation (航空) industry, has recommended that all airlines ban (禁止) such devices from being used during critical stages of flight, particularly take-off and landing. Some experts have gone further, calling for a total ban during all flights. Currently, rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines. And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during take-off and landing, most are reluctant to enforce a total ban, given that many passengers want to work during flights. The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircrafts computers. Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication. 8ut, because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory, they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not. The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable (易受损的) to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio systems in order to damage navigation equipment. As worrying, though, is the passenger who cant hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the musics too loud.11. The passage is mainly about _. A. a new regulation for all airlines B. the defects of electronic devices C. a possible cause of aircraft crashes D. effective safety measures for air flight 12. What is said about the over 100 aircraft incidents in the past 15 years? A. They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.B. They may have taken Place during take-off and landing. C. They were proved to have been caused by the passengers, portable computers. D. They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.13. Few airlines want to impose a total passengers using electronic devices because_. A. they dont believe there is such a danger as radio interference B. the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be proved C. most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette players D. they have other effective safety measures to fall back on 14. Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic field on an airplanes computers? A. Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplane B. Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with. C. Because research scientists have not been able to produce the same effects in labs D. Because expert lack equipment to do such research.15. It can be inferred from the passage that the author _. A. is in favor of prohibiting passengers-use of electronic devices completely B. has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interference C. hasnt formed his own opinion on this problem D. regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flight Passage 4Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo.
