In this era of increased global warming and diminishing fossil fuel supplies, we must begin to put a greater
priority on harnessing alternative energy sources. Fortunately,there are a number of readily available, renewable
resources that are both costeffective and earth-friendly.Two such resources are solar power and geothermal power
Solar energy,which reaches the earth through sunlight,is so abundant that it could meet the needs of worldwide
energy consumption 6,000 times over. And solar energy is easily harnessed through the use of photovoltaic cells
that convert sunlight into electricity. In the United States alone,more than 100,000 homes are equipped with solar
electric systems in the form of solar panels or solar roof tiles. And in other parts of the world,including many
developing countries, the use of solar systems is growing steadily.
- Mrs Yen’s material –
Another alternative energy source, which is abundant in specific geographical areas, is geothermal power,
which creates energy by tapping heat from below the surface of the earth. Hot water and steam that aretrapped in
underground pools are pumped to the surface and used to run a generator, which produces electricity. Geothermal
energy is 50,000 times more abundant than the entire known supply of fossil fuel resources. And as with solar
power, the technology needed to utilize geothermal energy is fairly simple. A prime example of effective
geothermal use is in Iceland, a region of high geothermal activity, where over 80 percent of private homes are
heated by geothermal power.
Solar and geothermal energy are just two of a number of promising renewable alternatives to conventional energy
sources.The time is long overdue to invest in the development and use of alternative energy on a global scale.
51. What is the main topic of this passage ?
A.The benefits of solar and wind power over conventional energy sources.
B. How energy resources are tapped from nature.
C. Two types of alternative energy sources that should be further utilized.
D. Examples of the use of energy sources worldwide.
52. According to the passage, why should we consider using alternative energy sources ?
A. Because fossil fuels are no longer available.
B. Because global warming has increased the amount of sunlight that reaches the earth.
C. Because they are free and available worldwide.
D. Because conventional energy sources are being depleted,and they cause environmental damage.
53. According to the passage, what can be inferred about solar roof tiles ?
A. They are being used in many undeveloped countries.
B. They can convert geothermal power to electricity.
C. They are more expensive than solar panels.
D. They contain photovoltaic cells.
54. According to the passage, how is solar energy production similar to geothermal energy production ?
A. They both require fairly simple technology. B.They both use heat from the earth’s surface.
C. They both require the use of a generator. D.They are both conventional and costly.
55. According to the passage, which of the following is true about solar power ?
A.There’s very little of it available in Iceland.
B.There’s enough of it to far exceed the energy needs of the world
C.It’s 6,000 times more powerful than energy from fossil fuels.
D.It’s being used in 100,000private homes worldwide.

Niagara Falls, one of the most famous North American natural wonders, has long been a popular tourist
destination. Tourists today flock to see the two falls that actually constitute Niagara Falls: the173-foot Horseshoe
Falls on the Canadian side of the Niagara River in the Canadian province of Ontario and the 182-foot high
American Falls on the U.S. side of the river in the state of New York. Approximately 85 percent of the water that
goes over the falls actually goes over Horseshoe Falls, with the rest going over American Falls.
Most visitors come between April and October, and it is quite a popular activity to take a steamer out onto the
river and right up to the base of the falls for a close-up view. It is also possible to get a spectacular view of the
falls from the strategic locations along the Niagara River, such as Prospect Point or Table Rock, or from one of the
four observation towers which have heights up to 500 feet.
Tourists have been visiting Niagara Falls in large numbers since the 1800s; annual visitation now averages
above 10 million visitors per year. Because of concern that all these tourists would inadvertently destroy the natural
beauty of this scenic wonder, the state of New York in 1885 created Niagara Falls Park in order to protect the land
surrounding American Falls. A year later Canada created Qeen Victoria Park on the Canadian side of the Niagara,
around Horseshoe Falls. With the area surrounding the falls under the jurisdiction of government agencies,
appropriate steps could be taken to preserve the pristine beauty of the area.
56.What is the major point that the author is making in this passage ?
A. Niagara Falls can be viewed from either the American side or the Canadian side.
B. A trip to the United States isn’t complete without a visit to Niagara Falls.
C. Niagara Falls has had an interesting history.

According to the evidence gathered by space probes and astronomers, Mars is an inhospitable planet, more
similar to Earth’s Moon than to Earth itself-a dry, stark, seemingly lifeless world. Mars’air pressure is equal to
Earth’s at an altitude of 100,000 feet. The air there is 95 percent carbon dioxide.
Mars has no ozone layer to screen out the sun’s lethal radiation. Daytime temperatures may reach above
freezing, but because the planet is blanketed by the mere wisp of an atmosphere, the heat radiates back into space.
Even at the equator, the temperature drops to -50c(-60F) at night. Today there is no liquid water, although valleys
and channels on the surface show evidence of having been carved by running water. The polar ice caps are made of
frozen water and carbon dioxide, and water may be frozen in the ground as permafrost.
Despite these difficult conditions, certain scientists believe that there is a possibility of trans-forming Mars into
a more Earth-like planet. Nuclear reactors might be used to melt frozen gases and eventually build up the
atmosphere. This in turn could create a “greenhouse effect” that would stop heat from radiating back into space.
Liquid water could be thawed to form a polar ocean. Once enough ice has melt, suitable plants could be introduced
to build up the level of oxygen in the atmosphere so that, in time, the planet would support animal life from Earth
and even permanent human colonies. “This was once thought to be so far in the future as to be irrelevant,” said
Christopher McKay, a research scientist at NASA. “But now it’s starting to look practical. We could begin work in
four or five decades.”
The idea of “terra-forming” Mars, as enthusiasts call it, has its roots in science fiction. But as researchers
develop a more profound understanding of how Earth’s ecology supports life, they have begun to see how it may
be possible to create similar conditions on Mars. Don’t plan on homesteading on Mars any time soon, though. The
process could take hundreds or even thousands of years to complete and the cost would be staggering.
51. With which of the following is the passage primarily concerned ?
A.The possibility of changing the Martian environment. B. The challenge of interplanetary travel.
C. The advantages of establishing colonies on Mars. D. The need to study the Martian ecology.

A. harsh B. unknown C. dark D. distant

Probably the most important factor governing the severity of forest fires is weather. Hot, dry weather lowers
the moisture content of fuels. Once a fire has started, wind is extremely critical because it influences the oxygen
supply and the rate of spread. Forest type and forest conditions are also important factors. For example, fire is more
likely to occur in conifers than in hardwood; slash-covered or brushy areas are specially hazardous because the rate
at which combustion consu,es fuel is proportional to fuel volume and surface area.
Some fires are caused by lighning; others are caused by people. Those caused by people may be accidental or
intentional(incendiary). The causes of fire in the United States show large regional differences. In the Rocky
Mountains more than 70 percent of the fires are caused by lightning, whereas incendiary fires amount to only about
1 percent. In contrast, more than 40 percent of the fires in the south are incendiary, whereas lightning causes only 1
percent.

Crows are probably the most frequently met and easily identifiable members of the native fauna of the United
States. The great number of tales, legends, and myths about these bird indicates that people have been
exceptionally interested in them for a long time. On the other hand, when it comes to substantive-
particularlybehavioral-information, crows are less well known than many comparably common species and for
that matter, not a few quite uncommon ones: The endangered California condor, to cite one obvious
example.There are practical reasons for this.
Crows are notoriously poor and aggravating subjects for field research. Keen observers and quick learners, they
are astute about the intentions of other creatures, including researchers, and adept at avoiding them. Because
they are so numerous, active, and monochromatic, it is difficult to distinguish one crow from another. Bands,
radio transmitters, or other identifying devices can be attached to them, but this of course requires catching live
crows, who are among the wariest and most untrappable of birds.
Technical difficulties aside, crow research is daunting because the ways of these birds are so complex and
various. As preeminent generalists, members of this species ingeniously exploit a great range of habitats and
resources, and they can quickly adjust to changes in their circumstances. Being so educable, individual birds
have markedly different interests and inclinations, strategies and scams. For example, one pet crow learned
how to let a dog out of its kennel by pulling the pin on the door. When the dog escaped, the bird went into the
kennel and ate its food.

reasons EXCEPT
A. They can successfully avoid observers. B. They are hard to distinguish from one another.

Federal Express is a company that specializes in rapid overnight delivery of high-priority packages. The
first company of its type,Federal Express was founded by the youthful Fred Smith in 1971, when he was only 28
years old. Smith had actually developed the idea for the rapid delivery service in a term paper for an economics
class when he was a student at Yale University. The term paper reputedly received a less-than-stellar grade because
of the infeasibility of the project that Smith had outlined. The model that Smith proposed had never been tried; it
was a model that was efficient to operate but at the same time was very difficult to institute.
Smith achieved efficiency in his model by designing a system that was seperate from the passenger system
and could, therefore, focus on how to deliver packages most efficiently. His strategy was to own his own planes so
that he could create his own schedules and to ship all packages through the hub city of Memphis, a set-up which
resembles the spokes on the wheel of a bicycle. With this combination of his own planes and hub set-up, he could
get packages anywhere in the United States overnight.
What made Smith’s idea difficult to institute was the fact that the entire system had to be created before the
company could begin operations. He needed a fleet of aircraft to collect packages from airports every night and
deliver them to Memphis, where they were immediately sorted and flown out to their new destinations; he needed a
fleet of trucks to deliver packages to and from the various airports; he needed facilities and trained staff all in place
to handle the operation. Smith had a $4 million inheritance from his father, and he managed to raise an additional
$91 million dolars from venture capitalists to get the company operating.
When Federal Express began service in 1973 in 25 cities, the company was not an immediate success, but
success did come within a relatively short period of time. The company lost $29 million in the first 26 months of
operations. However, the tide was to turn relatively quickly. By late 1976, Federal Express was carrying an average
of 19,000 packages per night and had made a profit of $3,6 million.
