(

27、15 points) Passage 1 Chinese basketball players have never been so close to the NBA before, but questions remain about how they will adjust to life in the NBA if they go. Wang Zhizhi, the 2.16-metre center for the Bayi Rockets who was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks two years ago, has finally receive

28、d permission from authorities to travel to Dallas to play for the rest of the NBA season after he finishes playing in the Chinese Basketball Associations finals on March 25th. If he has no problems with his visa, Wang will be the NBAs first Asian player. Wang was chosen by the Mavericks in the secon

29、d round of the 1999 draft, but the Rockets, an army-run club, refused to let him go. After negotiations between the Rockets and NBA representatives, the decision was made to allow Wang the chance to try his hand at American basketball, but only for a short period of time. He has to be back to play i

30、n the Ninth National Games in November in Guangzhou. Another center who has attracted attention from the NBA is Yao Ming, the 2.25-meter star who has led the Shanghai Sharks into the final fight with the Rockets this year. The 20-year-olds NBA dreams might be harder to realize. Yao is the center of

31、the Sharks and the clubs manager Bei Genyuan has said that he would allow Yao to go only at a proper time, for a proper team and under proper conditions. Yao hasnt been chosen yet and it is unlikely that he will be any time soon. People in the Sharks front office earlier told members of the press th

32、at “it is not proper for Yao to attend the draft this year” because he has to represent Shanghai in the Ninth National Games. Even if Wang and Yao make it to the promised land of basketball at last, analysts on both sides of the Pacific 6 精品自学考试资料推荐 have said the NBA road will be a long one for both

33、 of them. Besides needing to work on their upper body strength, Wang and Yao will also have to adapt to the speed, techniques and above all, culture of the NBA. 46Yao Ming has attracted attention from NBA because_. Ahe is 2.25 meters tall, who is the tallest basketball player in China Bhe is the cen

34、ter of the Shanghai Sharks and has led Sharks into the final fight with the Rockets Che is regarded as the best basketball player in China Dhe is thought highly of in the international world 47Yao Ming can play for NBA if _. Athere is no problem with his visa BNBA agrees to supply favorable conditio

35、ns for him Ctime and conditions are proper DNBA can pay a large sum of money for Sharks 48The underlined phrase “try his hand” in the passage probably means_.

Arules of basketball Bthe speed Cculture Dtechniques Passage 2 Scattered through the seas of the world are billions of tons of small plants and animals called plankto

37、n (浮游生物). Most of these plants and animals are too small for the human eye to see. They drift about lazily with the currents, providing a basic food for many larger animals. Plankton has been described as the equivalent (相等物) of the grasses that grow on the dry 7 精品自学考试资料推荐 land continents, and the

38、comparison is an appropriate one. In potential food value, however, plankton far outweighs that of the land grasses. One scientist has estimated that while grasses of the world produce about 49 billion tons of valuable carbohydrates (碳水化合物) each year, the seas plankton generates more than twice as m

39、uch. Despite its enormous food potential, little effort was made until recently to farm plankton as we farm grasses on land. Now, marine scientists have at last begun to study this possibility, especially as the seas resources loom even more important as a means of feeding an expanding world populat

40、ion. No one yet has seriously suggested that “plankton-burgers” may soon become popular around the world. As a possible farmed supplementary food source, however, plankton is gaining considerable interest among marine scientists. One type of plankton that seems to have great harvest possibilities is

41、 a tiny shrimp-like creature called krill (磷虾). Growing to two or three inches long, krill provide the major food for the giant blue whale, the largest animal ever to inhabit the Earth. Realizing that this whale may grow to 100 feet and weigh 150 tons at maturity, it is not surprising that each one

42、devours more than one ton of krill daily. Krill swim about just below the surface in huge schools sometimes miles wide, mainly in the cold Antarctic. Because of their pink color, they often appear as a solid reddish mass when viewed from a ship or from the air. Krill are very high in food value. A p

43、ound of these crustaceans contains about 460 caloriesabout the same as shrimp or lobster, to which they are related. If the krill can feed such huge creatures as whales, many scientists reason, they must certainly be contenders as a new food source for humans. 51Which of the following statements bes

44、t describes the organization of the passage? AThe author presents the advantages and disadvantages of plankton as a food source. BThe author quotes public opinion to support the argument for farming plankton. CThe author makes a general statement about plankton as a food source and then moves to a s

45、pecific example. DThe author introduces two kinds of sea food: plankton and krill 52Which of the following is NOT true about plankton? AIt refers to forms of organic life that drift in or float on the waters of oceans or rivers. BIt refers to grasses and the like that grow at the bottom of the ocean

46、. CIt refers to small plants and animals that provide a basic food for many larger animals. DIt is scattered through the seas of the world. 53According to the passage, plankton is considered to be more valuable than land grasses, because_. Ait is more tasty Bit produces more carbohydrates Cit is eas

47、ier to cultivate DThe quality of it is much more than the land grass 8 精品自学考试资料推荐 54Marine scientists have begun to study the possibility of farming plankton because_. Athey are encouraged by the former efforts made about it Bthe sea resources appear more important as a means of feeding an expanding world population Cplankton can be fertilizers to grasses DIt is easier to cultivate plankton than land grass 55When the author mentions “plankton-burgers” in Paragraph 4, he wants_. Ato describe the appearance of one type of plankton Bto illustrate how m
