But now,she can live until at least 80. One of the main reasons for people living longer is that we know how to look after our-selves better. We know which foods are good for us and what we have to eat to make sure ourbodies get all the healthy things they need. We know why we sometimes get ill and what to dotoget better again. And we know how important it is to do lots of exercise to keep our heartsbeating healthily. But in order that we dont slip back into bad habits. lets have a look at what life was like100 years ago. Families had between l5 and 20 children, although many babies didnt live long. Childrensuffered from lots of diseases, especially rickets（(佝偻病） and scurvy（坏血病） , which areboth caused by bad diets.

Really poor families who lived in crowded cities like London and Manchester often sleptstanding up, bending over a piece of string, because there was no room for them to lie down.People didnt have fridges until the l920s. They kept fresh food cold by storing it on windowsills（窗台板）, blocks of ice, or even burying it in the garden.Some children had to start work at the age of seven or eight to earn money for their parents.

By moving goods from places where they are plentifulto places where-they are scarce, transport adds to their value. The more easily goods can bebrought over the distance that separates producer and consumer, the better for trade. Whenthere were no railways, no good roads, no canals, and only small sailing ships, trade was on asmall scale.2 The great advances made in transport during the last two hundred years were accompaniedby a big increase in trade. Bigger and faster ships enabled a trade in meat to develop between. Britain and New Zealand, for instance. Quicker transport makes possible mass-production andbig business, drawing supplies from, and selling goods to, all parts of the globe. Big factoriescould not exist without transport to carry the large number of workers they need to and fromtheir homes. Big city stores could not have developed unless customers could travel easily fromthe suburbs and goods delivered to their homes. Big cities could not survive unless food could be brought from a distance.3 Transport also prevents waste. Much of the fish landed at the ports wouldbe wasted if it could not be taken quickly to inland towns. Transport has given US a much greater, variety offoods and goods since we no longer have to live on what is produced locally. Foods which at one time could be obtained only during a part of the year can now be obtained all through the year. Transport has raised the standard of living.4 By moving fuel, raw materials, and even power, as, for example, through electric cables, transport has led to the establishment of industries and trade in areas where they would have been impossible before. Districts and countries can concentrate on making things which they can do better and more cheaply than others and can then exchange them with one another. The cheaper and quicker transport becomes, the longer the distance over which goods can profitably be carried. Countries with poor transport have a lower standard of living.5 Commerce requires not only the moving of goods and people but also the carrying of messages and information. Means of communication, like telephones, cables and radio,send information about prices, supplies, and changing conditions in different parts of the world. In this way, advanced communication systems also help to develop trade.23 Paragraph 2 _24 Paragraph 3 _25 Paragraph 4 _26 Paragraph 5 _A Higher living standardB Importance of transport in tradeC Various means of transportD Birth of transportrelated industries and tradeE Role of information in tradeF Public transportation27 The development of modern means of transport _28 only when goods can be carried to all parts of the world quickly _29 Transport has made it possible for people to eat whatever food they want _30 In the trade of modern society the transmission of information plays as important a role as _A to send goods to various parts of the worldB at any time during the yearC has greatly promoted tradeD is it possible to produce on a large scaleE the transport of goodsF it is possible to produce on a large scale第4部分：阅读理解（第3145题，每题3分，共45分） 下面有3篇短文，每篇短文后有5道题，每题背面有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并根据短文回答其背面旳问题，从4个选项中选择l个最佳答案涂在答题卡对应旳位置上。第一篇Harmless RevengeRevenge is one of those things that everyone enjoys. People dont like to talk about it, though. Just the same, there is nothing more satisfying or more rewarding than revenge. Thepurpose is not to harm your victims but to let them know that you are upset about somethingthat they are doing to you. Careful plotting can provide you with relief from bothersome co-workers, gossiping friends, or nagging family members. Coworkers who make comments about the fact that you are always fifteen minutes late forwork can be taken care of very simply. All you have to do is get up extra early one day. Beforethesun comes up, drive to each coworkers house. Reach under the hood of your coworkerscar and disconnect the center wire that leads to the distributor cap, the car will be unharmed, but it will not start, and your friends at work will all be late for work on the same day. Ifyoure lucky, your boss might notice that you are the only one there and will give you a raise. Gossiping friends at school are also perfect targets for a simple act of revenge. A way to trap either male or female friends is to leave phony messages on their lockers. If the friend that you want toget is male, leave a message that a certain girl would like him to stop by her house later that day. With any luck, her boyfriend will be there. The girl wont know whats going on, and the victimwill be so embarrassed that he probably wont leave his home for a month. When Morn and Dad and your sisters and brothers really begin to annoy you, harmless revenge may be just the way to make them quiet down for a while. The dinner table is a likelyplace. Just before the meal begins, throw a handful of raisins into the food. Wait about fiveminutes and, after everyone has begun to eat, cover your mouth with your handand begin to make odd noises. When they ask you what the matter is, point to a raisin and yell, Bugs! They dump their food in the disposal, jump into the car，and head for McDonalds. Thatnight, youll have your first quiet, peaceful meal in a long time. A well-planned revenge does not have to hurt anyone. The object is simply to let otherpeople know that they are beginning to bother you.31According to the passage, a harmless revenge is _. A to amuse the victim B to react to those who bother you C to prevent one from disturbing others D to hurt nobody emotionally32 As a harmless revenge, you might come first and get a raise by _. A making your colleagues come late B getting up earlier than your colleagues C destroying your colleagues cars D pleasing your boss33 Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the second example? _. A The girl received a phony message. B The victim was invited by the girl. C The girl managed to revenge the victim harmlessly. D The girl wasnt expecting the victim.34 The family members dumped their food in the disposal because _. A they thought their food had been spoiled B they wanted to eat out C they wanted to have a peaceful meal D they didnt like the food with raisins35 The main topic of the passage is how to _. A avoid nagging familymembersB silence gossiping friends C make a harmless revenge D deal with bothersome coworkers第二篇The Only Way Is UpThink of a modem city and the first image that come to mind is the skyline. It is full of great buildings, pointing like fingers to heaven. It is true that some cities dont permit buildings to go above a certain height. But these are cities concerned with the past. The first thing any city does when it wants to tell the world that it has arrived is to build skyscrapers.When people gather together in cities, they create a demand for land. Since cities are places where money is made, that demand can be met. And the best way to make money out of city land is to put as many people as possible in a space that covers the smallest amount of ground. That means building upwards.The technology existed to do this as early as the 19th century. But the height of buildings was limited by one important factor. They had to be small enough for people on the top floors to climb stairs. People could not be expected to climb a mountain at the end of their journey to work, or home.Elisha Otis, a US inventor, was the man who brought us the lift-or elevator, as he preferred to call it. However, most of the technology is very old. Lifts work using the same pulley system the Egyptians used to create the Pyramids. What Otis did was attach the system to a steam engine and develop the elevator brake, which stops the lift falling if the cords that hold it up are broken. It was this that did the most to gain public confidence in the new invention. In fact, he spent a number of years exhibiting lifts at fairgrounds, giving people the chance to trythem out before selling the idea to architects and builders.A lift would not be a very good theme park attraction now. Going in a lift is such an everyday thing that it would just be boring. Yet psychologists and others who study human behavior find lifts fascinating. The reason is simple. Scientists have always studied animals in zoos. The nearest they can get to that with humans is in observing them in lifts.It breaks all the usual conventions about the bubble of personal space we carry around with us - and you just cant choose to move away, says workplace psychologist, Gary Fitzgibbon. Being trapped in this setting can create different types of tensions, he says. Some people are scared of them. Others use them as an opportunity to get close to the boss. Some stand close to the door. Others hide in the comers. Most people try and shrink into the background. But some behave in a way that makes others notice them. There are a few people who just stand in a comer taking notes.Dont worry about them. They are probably from a university.36. .these are cities concerned with the past in the first paragraph refer to cities thatA) are worried about their past.B) have a glorious past to be proud of.C) want to maintain their traditional image.D) are very interested in their own history.37. The difficulty in constructing tall buildings in the 19th century lies inA) the shortage of money.B) the lack of a device to carry people upward.C) backward technology.D) mountains taking up land space.38. When Otis came up with th
