Section Ⅲ Reading Comprehension
Part A Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
Text 1 Trees are useful to man in three very important ways: they supply him with wood and other products ;they give him shade; and they help to prevent droughts and floods. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important. In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers, only to find that without them he has lost the best friends he had. 2 000 years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became hard and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the home country found itself faced floods and starvation. Even if a government realizes the importance of adequate supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade the villager to see this. The villager wants wood to cook his food with; and he can earn money by producing charcoal or selling wood to the townsman. He is usually too lazy or too careless to plant and take care of new trees. So, unless the government has a good control system, or can educate the people, the forests will slowly disappear. This does not only mean that the villager's sons and grandsons have fewer trees. The results are even more serious: for where there are trees their roots break the soil up -- allowing the rain to sink in -- and also bind the soil, thus preventing its being washed away easily; but where there are no trees, the rain falls on hard ground and flows away from the surface, causing floods and carrying away with it the rich topsoil ,in which crops grow so well. When all the top soil is gone, nothing remains but a useless desert.

D.Providing charcoal.

Text 2 Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employees and the self-employed. Labor is one of the country's resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services required by the community. Though the size of the workforce relies greatly on the size of the total population, there are several other aspects which also affect it. The age distribution of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an evenly spread age distribution. If the population grows rapidly from natural increase, i. e. the number of births greatly exceeds the number of deaths, then as a total population increases the proportion in the workforce declines. Sometimes a population is described as aging, which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are unadequate numbers of young people entering it to take place of those who are leaving it. The population is top-heavy with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate. The age distribution of the population has several important influences on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce , this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reasonable level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes or hotels, finance must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax receipts are relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.
1. Labor force is composed of______.
A.people who are available to work and earn income
B.self-employed people only
C.only those who are looking for an employment
D.only the employees
A B C D
A
[解析] 由文中首句对labor force的定义可知选A。

B.a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforce
C.the larger the number of the aged in a population, the higher the proportion of the workforce
D.if the population has an evenly spread age distribution, the workforce will be lower
A B C D
B
[解析] 第二段主要论述 age distribution 对于劳动力规模的影响。

C.there is an oversupply of workforce

[解析] 由末段可知older people 过分增加，会给三方面造成影响：the government，the economy 以及 the workforce。
Text 3 Finishing teacher's evaluations need maturity and objectivity. Every semester we have the opportunity to evaluate our instructors. We are supposed to judge their lectures, interest in students' problems, methods of assigning work, and general ability to conduct a class. Then when the instructor has left the room, we must write our evaluations on the forms provided. We are not supposed to exchange view or discuss our responses. After everyone has completed the forms, one student collects and tallies the responses and then puts them in an envelope and makes them sealed. It is very difficult to evaluate another person' s performance objectively. For example, Senta recently wrote irresponsible remarks about her instructor because she- was failing to pass the course. Her friend Sam wrote a marvelous description of the same instructor because he received an A in the course. Both Senta and Sam were not fairly evaluating the instructor. They were affected by the grades they were earning and were biased in their judgments. Another irresponsible form of evaluation occurred when James rated his instructor excellent because the instructor is "easy". He gives few tests and only assigns one paper during the entire term. His lectures are often full of jokes and endless stories. On the other hand, James rated Professor Jones poor because he assigns text work dally, gives pretest and post test reviews, and packs his lectures with a lot of information.
1. Student should evaluate their instructors______.
A.by discussing opinions with classmates
B.by rating the instructor's interest in students' problem
C.by discussing opinions with instructors

Part B Meriwether Lewis was born near Charlottesville, Virginia on August 19, 1775. For several years he was the personal secretary of his friend Thomas Jefferson, the President of the United States. Before that, he served in the United States Army for 12 years. One day the President told him he had a special mission for him. Jefferson asked Lewis to lead an expedition to explore the Louisiana Territory, cross the Rocky Mountains, and go all the way to the Pacific Ocean. The President wanted him to find a waterway from the Mississippi to the Pacific and to make friends with the native Americans he met. He was also to make detailed maps and to describe the rivers, mountains, plants, and animals he saw. Lewis chose his close friend Captain Bill Clark to be the co-leader of the expedition. Like himself, Captain Clark was in the army for many years, loved the outdoors, and had a lot of experience with native Americans. However, the two men were also rather different. Lewis was quiet, serious, and liked to be alone. Clark liked to talk and joke, and was always kind to others. About 40 men and Lewis's dog Seaman left St. Louis on May 14, 1804. Most of the men were soldiers, and they were named the Corps of Discovery. They traveled northwest up the muddy Missouri River in three boats loaded with food and gifts for the native Americans. In October, they got to Mandan, North Dakota, where they established a fort among friendly native Americans and stayed for the winter. In April 1805, the Corps of Discovery started west from Mandan along with three new members, a French trapper named Charbonneau, his native American wife, Sacagawea, and their baby. They reached the beginning of the Missouri River and the Rocky Mountains in July. With the help of Sacagawea, they bought horses from the native Americans, crossed the Rocky Mountains, and continued along the Snake and Columbia Rivers. On November 7, 1805, they sighted their goal, the Pacific Ocean! In March 1806, the Corps started their long journey back to St. Louis and arrived there on September 23, 1806, tired but very happy. They had accomplished everything President Jefferson wanted except to find a waterway to the Pacific. But it wasn't easy. They had to contend with grizzly bears, mosquitoes, and rattlesnakes. They came close to starving and had to eat horses, dogs, and roots. They suffered a lot from the heat and the cold, from too much rain, and from heavy snow. But they were the first explorers crossing the North American Continent north of Mexico, and the expedition was a great success. Statements A. was the President of the United States. B. were loaded with gifts for the native Americans. C. was serious. D. turned out to be a great success. E. loved the outdoors. F. accomplished everything the President wanted except to find a water way to the Pacific. G. was named Charbonneau.

From living-room, bedroom to kitchen each is furnished with modem electrical appliances such as TV, airconditioner, washing machine, micro-wave stove and so on. It is pretty convenient for us to live with the help of those high-technology machines. For example, TV can provide us not only news about civil and world affairs but entertainment. Besides, washing machine and microwave stove change long time, heavy house work into a few minutes, pushing-button work. Finally computer enables us to communicate with every comer of the world.
