Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
(每小题： 分)
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage or dialog.
I'm 90 years old. The advantage of being 90 is that you can look forward to death. The world is getting noisier, sexier and more horrible by the minute, but at least I can comfort myself with the fact that the end is in sight. Or so I thought. Imagine my anger when I opened the newspaper and discovered they were going to make us live till 130. When you're 60 or 70 the thought of death crosses your mind like a shadow. It disturbs you, it worries you. But by the time you reach my age you hope for it.
My body is dying on me. It's horrible. You start to smell—the smell of death—and you can do nothing about it. I can no longer see properly. You go deaf, and people talk to you as if you're a child. Your legs give up on you. Nowadays I spend so much time working out how to avoid making the trip downstairs more than once a day. When I do get out, I can barely walk more than a few yards—and according to those who know me, I'm lucky in good shape for my 90 years.
Ah, but the world would be so much wiser, some people say. I'm afraid that's an illusion. As we get older, we lose our wisdom, our mind, and even our language. We would have a world in which no one could communicate because we'd have forgotten how to.
No. The absolute nothingness of death is something to look forward to. If I discovered a medicine to make people live until 130, the first thing I'd do is to bury it.
1.
What is the advantage of being 90 years old?
A. You can become sexier.
B. You can look forward to death.
C. You can enjoy the world more.
D. You can hear less noise.
2.
Why did the speaker get angry?
A. He learned people will live longer.
B. He learned people will be noisier.
C. He learned people will become sexy.
D. He learned people will think about death.
3.
Why is the speaker lucky, according to some?
A. He doesn't have to walk much.
B. He doesn't need to listen to others.
C. He is in good health for his age.
D. He is much wiser than before.
4.
What is an "illusion", according to the speaker?
A. That the world has become a better place.
B. That the world has become sexier and noisier.
C. That old people are happy to live longer lives.
D. That old people are wiser than they were before.
5.
What would he do with a medicine that makes life longer?
A. Live 130 years.
B. Become wiser.
C. Forget where it is.
D. Bury the medicine.
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage or dialog.
Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed (供应，分发) among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (极大数量) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility (公用事业) services. The interrelationship of all these prices makes up the system of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.
If one were to ask a group of randomly (任意地) selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees (保证) on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that compose the total "package" being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.
6.
What is the best title for the passage?
A. The Inherent Weaknesses of the Price System.
B. The Complexities of the Price System.
C. Credit Terms in Transactions.
D. Resource Distribution and the Public Sector.
7.
According to the passage, the price system is related primarily to _____.
A. labor and education
B. transportation and insurance
C. utilities and repairs
D. products and services
8.
According to the passage, which if the following is NOT a factor in the complete understanding of price?
A. Instructions that come with a product.
B. The quantity of a product.
C. The quality of a product.
D. Warranties (保修证书) that cover a product.
9.
In the last sentence, the word "they" refers to ______.
A. return privileges
B. buyers and sellers
C. money and credits
D. all the factors
10.
The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses ______.
A. unusual ways to advertise products
B. types of payment plans for service
C. theories about how products affect different levels of society
D. how certain elements of a price "package" influence its market value

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage or dialog.
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 (强度) that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.
Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4: on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city's highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes (准则) 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 take place.
In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations (振动). The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake's vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction.
The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.
11.
One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that ________.
A. new computers had been built into the buildings
B. it occurred in the residential (居住的) areas rather than on the highways
C. large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holiday
D. improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways
12.
The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ________.
A. counterbalance (抵消) an earthquake's action on the building
B. predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracy
C. help strengthen the foundation of the building
D. measure the impact of an earthquake's vibrations
13.
The smart buildings discussed in the passage ________.
A. would cause serious financial problems
B. would be worthwhile though costly
C. would increase the complexity of architectural design
D. can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes
14.
It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ________.
A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital construction
男生qq网名大全
B. the development of flexible building materials
C. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrations
D. early forecasts of earthquakes
15.
The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to ________.
A. compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the US
B. encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use of computers
C. outline the history of the development of quake-resistant building materials
D. report new developments in constructing quake-resistant buildings
