    A report has recently been published about what the earth might be like 20 years or so from now on. The report is a result of a three-year  46 .
    According to the report, the picture of the earth in the year 2020 is not a  47 one. The world will be more  48 because the population will continue to grow. The population could be  49 9,000 million, almost 3,000 million more than that in 2009. More people would move into cities, especially cities in  50 countries. Cities in India and Thailand probably would  51 have a population of 20 million by then.
    Food production will  52 , but not enough to feed all the people. Farmers will grow 90% more food than they did in 2009,  53 most of the increase would be in countries that  54 produce enough food for their people. Little increase is  55 in South Asia, Africa or the Middle East. Poor farming ways are  56 large areas of cropland, changing farms into deserts. More farmland is  57 as cities become larger and more houses are built.  58 will get worse as developed countries burn more coal and oil. Many of the world’s  59 could disappear as more and more trees are cut down. Energy will continue to be a serious problem. The experts say their  60  of the earth for the year 2020 may be wrong. They only   61  the situation as it is today. By changing the situation, by  62 the problems, the picture can be changed. There is  63 time for the nations of the world to  64 a plan of action. But they considered that  65 too long to make a decision would greatly reduce the chances of success

    At least 10 million hectares of cultivated（耕作）land in China are polluted, which makes a grave threat to the country’s food safety, the Xinhua News Agency reported on Friday.
    The polluted land，which is mostly in economically developed areas，accounts for one-tenth of the country’s total arable（可耕种的）land，according to an incomplete survey by the State Environmental Protection Administration，China’s top environment watchdog.
    Pollution on cultivated land threatens the environment，food safety and the sustainable development of agriculture，the administration said.
    Because of continual，too much use of chemical fertilizer, pesticide and agricultural plastic sheeting, as well as irrigation using polluted water, a large amount of contaminants（污染物）remain in the cultivated land.
    The contaminants affect the soil’s ecological structure and function，leading to decreased soil productivity, lower crop yield（产量），and lower quality of agricultural products-
    It also leads to worse water quality in rural areas.
    Less than 9 per cent of drinkable water passed checks for bacteria in243 rural water supply stations across the county.
    Another survey, which took samples of drinking water and groundwater an 69 small towns。 in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province of North，China, showed that more than half of the water contains too much nitrate（硝酸盐），which may cause diabetes（糖尿病）and damage the kidney.
    The administration estimated at least 1 90 million farmers are drinking water that contains harmful substances.
    Many villagers drink unfiltered water taken from shallow water wells or water cellars， which are reported to have poor sanitary conditions·
    小题1:The author writes the passage to            .
    A．1et the readers examine their mistakes
    B．present the readers a new idea
    C．come up with a solution to ending farmland pollution
    D．inform the readers of the importance of fighting farmland pollution

    The World Trade Organization (WTO) founded on January 1, 1994, aims to encourage international trade to flow as freely as possible, making sure that trade agreements are respected and that any disputes (争端) can be settled.
    In the five years since its founding, the WTO has become well-known as one of the world’s most powerful economic organizations, taking its place alongside the World Bank and International Monetary Fund.
    The system of global rules for international trade, however, dates back half a century to 1948 when the General Agreement on Tariffs (关税) and Trade (GATT) was formed after World War II.
    As time went by it became clear that the GATT had two major drawbacks—the limited areas of trade it covered, and the lack of an effective system to settle disputes.
    After seven years of trade talks ending in 1994. the so-called Uruguay Round finally gave birth to the WTO, complete with an effective system to settle disputes and new rules covering trade in services and intellectual property (知识产权).
    Even after seven years of talks and 22500 pages of agreements there were still problems, especially the difficult-to-deal-with areas of agriculture and services.
    The WTO. with its head office in Geneva, has 135 members with 30 more waiting to join.
    小题1:Compared with the GATT, the WTO _____.
    A．can do better to settle disputes in more areas of international trade
    B．got its members to sign the agreements more easily
    C．has got too many areas of international trade to deal with to work effectively
    D．didn’t pay enough attention to services and intellectual property
    小题2:In the new century the WTO will _____.
    A．take the place of the World Bank and International Monetary Fund
    B．have new rules covering trade in services and intellectual property
    C．make complete new rules in every area of international trade
    D．have more members and do much more to settle more problems
    小题3:The underlined word “drawbacks” probably means _____.
    A．weak pointsB．changesC．strong pointsD．improvements
    小题4:The best title for the passage is _____.
    A．WTO—Another Name for GATT
    B．WTO—an International Service Organization
    C．WTO—One of the World’s Strongest Economic Organizations
    D．WTO—the World’s Most Powerful Economic Organization

    Group buying is one of the fastest growing trends in South Africa today. Industry leaders are confident the growth potential remains strong since group buying is location-specific. Start-up costs are low and profit room remains high, so many sites continue to receive invested money despite widespread criticism and Facebook’s decision to phase out of deal business due to privacy concerns.
    In the early stages of all industries, some companied fail because they cannot compete with stronger companies in difficult economic conditions. To deal with difficult conditions, an alarming number of businesses are developing group buying websites in places like China and India, so the increase of group buying in South Africa is nothing more than a natural progression into the international mainstream.
    The group buying concept is fairly new and consumers have accepted this concept because they can now make full use of the rich information available on the Internet. Group buying is convenient and easy so it works. Anyone can view a site, join a mailing list, subscribe to RSS or print out a coupon(优惠券). The current group buying structure offered by the industry leaders works although there are still challenges to overcome.
    Perhaps, the future of group buying is tied to the joining together of social media and mobile devices. Mobile devices are with us wherever we go and almost everyone is using some type of social media site like Facebook or Twitter to stay informed. Using GPS and social media technology to provide real time location-specific promotions would be beneficial to every consumer looking for the best deals in town.
    Pause for a moment and think about it! What is better than signing on to your phone while having fun in town and you receive a real time information that your favorite shop across the street is offering a killer dial?
    The future of the group buying in South Africa is bright and we can expect to see more advanced approaches to this concept in the future. In addition to the technological advances consumers will see the range of promotions expand to include new products and services.

    Early last Tuesday, six men carrying machine guns, a pistol and a hunting rifle got on a four—car electric “ milk train” at the Dutch town of Assen. Shortly after it left Beilen, ten miles away, the terrorists stopped the train and seized the passenger as hostages. As police and Dutch soldiers ringed the train, another group of terrorists stuck in Amsterdam, forcing their way into the Indonesian consulate and taking 41 more hostages, including 16 children. By week’s end the terrorists had murdered three people aboard the train, and four more had been wounded in the raid on the consulate.
    The kidnapping, and the subsequent cold—blooded murders, virtually rocked the Netherlands. While the Cabinet met in emergency sessions, television and radio station paused normal programming in favor of solemn music and news bulletins.
    The terrorists were Indonesians from the South Moluccan Islands in the Pacific Ocean, and they were demanding that the Dutch help them gain independence from the Jakarta regime.(雅加达政权)
    The twin acts of violence were not the first signs of South Molucca anger. Just before a 1970 visit to the Netherlands by Indonesia’s President Suharto, they attacked the Indonesian embassy in the Hague, killing a Dutch policeman. Last week’s kidnappings are two days before the Dutch Appeals Court was to trial 16 South Moluccan’s who were implicated in a plot last April to kidnap Queen Juliana and other members of the Royal family. They planned to storm the palace at Soestdijk after attacking the gates with an armoured car(装甲车).
    The Moluccan headache is a heritage(遗留问题) of the old days of empire. A chain of islands at the eastern of the Indonesian archipelago, the Moluccas were once known as the Spice Islands. When the Netherlands gave up its East Indies colonies in 1949, the Moluccans wanted to set up a South Moluccan Republic, some 12,000 islanders were allowed to settle to the Netherlands. Their number swollen by Dutch—born children now reached 35,000. the young Moluccans here are demanding that the Dutch help them gain independence from the Jakarta regime.
    小题1:Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?
    A．Dozens of people were seized by the terrorist as hostages.
    B．The Indonesian consulate was located in Amsterdam.
    C．The terrorists were Indonesians living in the Netherlands.
    D．The terrorists all surrendered(投降) to the police and soldiers.
    小题2:Why did television and radio stations pause normal programming?
    A．The acts of violence shocked the whole country.
    B．The terrorists destroyed necessary equipment.
    C．the Cabinet needed to think quietly.
    D．Their men were too sad to produce good program.
    小题3:The last paragraph __________.
    A．is mainly about the history of Indonesia
    B．tells us how Indonesia won its independence
    C．tell us how the Netherlands gave up its rule
    D．briefly accounts for the acts of violence

    In the United States, train transportation is unpopular compared with cars and airplanes. Most people like traveling by car or by air. Officials of the United States Department of Transportation made a study in 2001. The study is about how many miles Americans traveled by different means of transportation. They only studied trips longer than 50 miles. The study showed that fifty-six percent of all miles were traveled in personal vehicle. Forty-one percent were traveled in an airplane. Two percent were traveled in a bus. And less than one percent of miles were traveled in a train. Amtrak is the national provider of train transportation in the United States. In the past ten years, the number of its passengers has increased by eighteen percent. Although the number of passengers has increased, it is still very small now. In countries such as France, Germany, or Japan, more people use trains. There are several reasons why many people ________________________.
    Firstly, Americans love to drive their own cars. On highways, cars can travel as fast as trains. These highways connect all major cities in America．Secondly, many travelers like to be independent. When they use their own cars they can decide when to travel. Thirdly, many buses travel between major cities. Bus travel is less costly than train travel. In a huge country like the United States, cities are far away from each other. In some cases, travel from one city to another by train may take more than a day. Airplanes can carry passengers over long distances much faster. People who do not want to spend long time traveling by train decide to fly. For these people saving time is the most important thing.

    YUZHOU, HENAN –An accident in a central China coal mine killed 21 miners Saturday and left another 16 trapped underground , the government said.
    The death toll rose to 26 Sunday morning as rescuers were battling to reach the 11 miners who were still trapped underground, rescue headquarters said.
    Rescuers were battling to reach the 11 miners still trapped underground, but chances for them to survive were very slim, said Du Bo, deputy chief of the rescue headquarters.
    "Based upon past experience, the remaining 11 miners could be buried in coal dust, so the survival chances are frail," Du said.
    More than 2,500 tons of coal dust smothered(厚厚的覆盖) the pit after the gas leak（漏出）, which hampered（阻碍） the rescue, said Du.
    The gas outburst happened at 6:03 a.m. Saturday when 276 miners were working underground in the mine in Yuzhou City. A total of 239 workers escaped but 21 were found dead and 16 trapped.
    An initial（最初的） investigation showed that 173,500 cubic meters of gas leaked out in the accident. Liu Wenbin, a deputy chief engineer of the company that owns the mine, was in the pit（矿井） when the accident happened. He organized the escape.
    "At around 6 a.m., I felt there was something wrong with the airflow in the shaft, and one of the team captains told me he also felt it and had already reported the problem," said Liu
    The mine is owned by Pingyu Coal & Electric Co. Ltd., a company jointly established by four investors, including Zhong Ping Energy Chemical Group and China Power Investment Corp.
    小题1:What could be the best title for this passage?                    
    A．Death Toll Rises in an Accident in China
    B．A Coal Mine Accident in Central China
    C．An Accident in Central China
    D．Coal Mine Accidents in China
    小题2:What does the underlined part mean in the second paragraph?           
    A．payment required for the use of rescuing persons
    B．the number of people killed in a particular accident
    C．the percentage of the dead persons in an accident
    D．a number of people killed in an accident
    小题3:From this passage we know that ____.                        
    A．Of the 276 miners in the mine only 21 were dead until the next morning
    B．The miners trapped underground would be saved without difficulty
    C．16 miners trapped underground were still found alive waiting for the rescue
    D．Until the next morning another 5 miners were found dead in this accident
