Beijing residents say spitting is what they hate most about living in the city.What comes after spitting are dog owners who fail to clear up their pets excrement. Third on the list of bad practices is not properly disposing of rubbish. The result was released by the Beijing Social Psychology Institute after they recently conducted a survey of 770 randomly selected people.The three phenomena that topped the list of uncivilized behavior remained almost the same when they are compared with the survey of one year ago. Nearly 63 percent of those surveyed this month said they often see people spitting in public. However, nearly 27 percent of the residents said that spitting has reduced over the past year.People are happy to see this result. However, spitting in public has become a habit for some. The researchers believe that punishment could help reduce some of bad behavior.The residents being surveyed said that publicity and punishment for spitting should be strengthened to make those with the bad habit change. But it still needs more effort from the whole of society and every resident in order to achieve the goal. They find that few people will spit in their own neighborhood or their workplace. Spitting at home goes without saying. But on streets and in other public places such as buses and railway stations, spitting is more common.People believe that home and their neighborhood are their own places. In workplaces, people care about what other people think of them as everybody else will know them. But in public places, due to a lack of supervision, some people believe the environment has nothing to do with them. Besides spitting, with the increase in dogs raised as pets in Beijing, many complaints have been received because some dog owners do not clear up their pets excrement.More than half of the people surveyed said they often saw this happen. They always saw dog excrement on the grass by the sides of streets. The dogs have no idea where they should relieve themselves, but why do their owners know nothing about what to do with what they leave behind? It is reported that there are more than 1 million pet dogs in Beijing.Other habits that really get on the nerves of the city residents are illegal adverts, out of control passengers on buses or the subways and lovers who show affection in public.However, 44 percent of the people believe that the moral standards of Beijing people are still high despite the problems. Only 7 percent of the people said that the moral standards of Beijing people were low.Many people being surveyed believe that local people are more civilized than a year ago. Many local residents said although the moral standards of Beijing people are high compared with those of the people in other cities, there is still a gap between the capital city and some large foreign cities.56. In Line 1 the expression “turn your stomach” most probably mean_.A. to make your stomach aching B. to make you sickC. to make you hungry D. to make you full57. The uncivilized behavior came first on the list of bad habits were_.A. nearly the same as the result of the survey one year agoB. quite different from the result of the survey one year agoC. almost contrary to the result of the survey one year agoD. just remaining exactly the same as the result of the survey one year ago58. Which of the following is NOT the reason why spitting in public is common?A. People dont care about others opinion as they dont know each other.B. They regard public places as their own home or neighborhood.C. Some people think they have nothing to do with the environment.D. There is no supervision to control people.59. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Gaps between Beijing and Some Big Foreign Cities B. Bad Habit: SpittingC. Uncivilized Beijing Residents D.

Most people who do this job say they love their work because it is very rewarding and varied. They work not only inside a laboratory, but also out in the field. Fieldwork includes traveling to rivers, oceans and lakes in order to collect information and specimens. Reading, writing and speaking are also very important to the job. Fish scientists need to read the research of other scientists. They must be able to write up their own research clearly so that others can follow it. They also need to be able to give lectures about their findings, so that they can spread knowledge.Ichthyologists who wish to specialize can choose any one of three areas of study. The first area is aquaculture. This involves the study and practice of fish farming and management. Because it is a rather new study, there are very few job opportunities available. However, as there is so much to discover, many see it as an exciting area for a new ichthyologist to enter. The second area is fisheries science, which means working with a team of scientists to find out more about different fish species. The third area is about the protection of natural fish populations. This is very important today, given that many fish species are in danger of dying out because of the actions of humans.To become a successful fish scientist, you need to have a curious mind and be able to work on your own. You also need to be able to handle equipment and perform experiments; but most importantly, you must love fish. To become an ichthyologist, you will need to train at a university to pass a Bachelor of Science degree. For this, you will need to be good at mathematics, physical science and biology. Then, you will need to study for another year to complete an honours degree in ichthyology. This honours degree contains coursework about all aspects of fish. You also need to complete a research paper.64. What makes the jobs of ichthyologists so varied?A. They study fish habits and collect information.B. They have to study science and mathematics.C. They work in fields as well as in laboratories.D. They read research papers written by others.65. Who is most likely to become an ichthyologist?A. Tom, because he likes fishing and outdoor sports.B. Jack, because he likes to travel and read adventure books.C. Jenny, because she likes science, mathematics and reading about dinosaurs.D. Jane, because she likes mathematics, science, biology and searching rock-pools.66. What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A. Ichthyologists must choose three areas of study. B. Many fish species are given to humans and in danger of dying out.C. Ones love for fish is the key to becoming an ichthyologist.D. Humans contribute to the decrease in natural fish populations.67. The passage is probably written for _.A. university students B. science researchersC. fisheries expertsD. fish farmersDThe man was shocked. It was as though he had just heard his own sentence of death. For a moment he sat and stared at the spot where the fire had been. Then he grew very calm. Perhaps the old-timer on Sulphur Creek was right. If he had only had a trail-mate he would have been in no danger now. The trail-mate could have built the fire. Well, it was up to him to build the fire over again, and this second time there must be no failure. Even if he succeeded, he would most likely lose some toes. His feet must be badly frozen by now, and there would be some time before the second fire was ready. They were only passing through his m
