特別是近兩年的各項(xiàng)改革,幾乎無一不是在適應(yīng)世貿(mào)組織的要求,且改革的步伐明顯加快,改革也開始越來越深入到計(jì)劃經(jīng)濟(jì)的最核心領(lǐng)域。) up with the ball, the researcher argues. He also says that FIFA39。s experiment was conducted in such a way as to ________. A. pel the subjects to separate major information from minor details B. put the subjects through increasingly plex tests C. check the effectiveness of nicotine on smokers D. register the prompt responses of the subjects45. The word bested (Line 3, Para. 5) most probably means ________. A. beat B. enviedC. caught up with D. made the best of46. Which of the following statements is true? A. Active smokers in general performed better than deprived smokers. B. Active smokers responded more quickly than the other subjects. C. Nonsmokers were not better than other subjects in performing simple tasks. D. Deprived smokers gave the slowest responses to the various tasks.47. We can infer from the last paragraph that __________.A. smokers should not expect to bee airline pilots B. smoking in emergency cases causes mental illness C. no airline pilots smoke during flights D. smokers may prove unequal to handling emergency cases48. The way of research in this passage is _________. A. critical analysis B. parison C. sample investigation D. causeresult analysis Passage Four There is no question that the old style of air pollution could kill people. In one week following the infamous peasouper fog in December 1952, 4,700 people died in London Most of these people were elderly and already had heart or lung diseases. A series of these killer fogs eventually led to the British Parliament passing the Clean Air Act which restricted the burning of coal. Fortunately the effect of smog on the lungs is not so dramatic. Scientists have now conducted a number of laboratory experiments in which volunteers are exposed to ozone inside a steel chamber for a few hours. Even at quite low concentrations there is a reversible fall in lung function, an increase in the irritability of the lungs and evidence of airway inflammation (發(fā)炎). Although irritable and inflamed lungs are particularly seen in people with asthma (哮喘) and other lung diseases, these effects of ozone also occur in healthy subjects. Similar changes are also seen after exposure to nitrogen dioxide, although there is some disagreement about the concentration at which they occur. Other studies have found that people living in areas with high levels of pollution have more symptoms and worse hung function than those living in areas with clean air. Groups of children attending school camps show falls in lung function even at quite law concentrations of ozone. There is also a relationship between ozone levels and hospital admissions for asthma, both in North America and Australia. h is suspected that longterm exposure to smog may result in chronic bronchitis (支氣管炎) and emphysema (肺氣腫), but this has yet to be proven. Recently an association has been found between the levels of particles in the air and death rates in North American cities. The reason for this association is not understood and as yet there is no evidence this occurs in Australia. However, we do know that hazy days are associated with more asthma attacks in children.49. Which of the following is NOT the result of laboratory experiments? A. Low concentrations. B. Fall in lung function. C. Irritability of the lungs. D. Airway inflammation.50. Irritable and inflamed lungs are also seen in people with _______. A. asthma B. lung diseases C. good health D. weak health51. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible cause of lung diseases? A. The burning of coal. B. Longterm exposure to smog. C. Exposure to nitrogen dioxide. D. Attending school camps.52. The relationship between exposure to ________has not yet been determined. A. ozone and fall in lung function B. ozone and lung diseases such as asthma C. nitrogen dioxide and worse lung function D. smog and chronic bronchitis and emphysema53. The association between _____________has not yet been found in Australia. A. ozone levels and hospital admissions for asthma B. hazy days and more asthma attacks in children C. the levels of particles in the air and death rates D. high levels of pollution and more symptoms 54. In the last sentence of the third paragraph, the word suspected can be best replaced by ____________. A. doubtful B. supposed C. suspicious D. said Passage Five Long after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the disputed refereeing (裁判) decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees. The researcher organized an experimental tournament (錦標(biāo)賽) involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge. Observers noted down tile referees errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes a remarkably high number. The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyse the matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The r
