[填空题] Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.
The way in which people use social space reflects their social relationships and their ethnic identity. Early immigrants to America from Europe brought with them a (47) style of living, which they retained until late in the 18th century. Historical records document a group-Oriented (48) , in which one room was used for eating, entertaining guests, and sleeping. People ate soups from a communal pot, (49) drinking cups, and used a common pit toilet. With the development of ideas about individualism, people soon began to shift to the use of (50) cups and plates; the eating of meals that included meat, bread, and vegetables (51) on separate plates; and the use of private toilets.

[单项选择] Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.
After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had good news to report: The damage and death toll (死亡人数) could have been much worse.
More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.
Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.
Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often t

[单项选择] Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.
It is clear that human history will end; the only mystery is when. It is also clear that if the timing is left to nature (or, if you prefer, to God) and humans hang on until the bloody end, the race’s final exit will be ignoble (不光彩的). If future generations escape the saurian (蜥蜴类) agony of extinction by a wandering chunk of rock or ice, the sun’s unavoidable growth to giant hood will still burn their last successors to ashes: only cinders and gases and dust will remain.
Far future generations might prolong the process by posting colonies beyond the earth’s orbit, but these would be sad outposts at the end of the solar system’s long day, clutching memories of a lost planet and of billions of sacrificed souls. The difficulties—fantastic difficulties—of interstellar (星性际的) travel might be overcome, but the mightiest of starships could do no more than defer the end of the world. An ignoble ex
A. Leaving the timing to nature.

D. An exit driven by man’s rationality.

[填空题] Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
Electricity was born at the dawn of the last century. From then on, households have been inundated with a flood of home electric goods. What is the impact of this home electric goods revolution
It is argued here that the home electric goods revolution may liberate women from the home. And it is true that many households never hesitate a second to adopt this new technology or that, however, in fact many of the home electric goods which are advertised as liberating the modem woman tend to have the opposite effect, because they simply change the nature of work instead of eliminating it. Machines have a certain novelty value, like toys for adults. It is certainly less tiring to put clothes in a washing machine, but the time saved does not really amount to much the machine has to be watched, the clothes have to be carefully sorted out first, stains removed by hand, buttons pushed and water changed, clothes tak
