History is a partial guide: East Asia has a long trading tradition, lately reinvigorated (給以新的活力 ) by the Chinese adoption of market economics. The Soviet Union, on the other hand, was sheltered from free-market forces for more than 70 years. In Africa, some countries are disadvantaged because of inadequate infrastructure (基礎(chǔ)結(jié)構(gòu)); many countries have little to trade but commodities, the prices of which have fallen in recent years. In some regions, certain countries have suffered by adopting misguided policies, often under pressure from International Monetary Fund. First among these is Russia, which in the early 1990s tried to embrace capitalism before first building the institutions that make capitalism work, such as an independent bank system, a system of business law, and all adequate method for collecting taxes. Encouraged by the IMF the World Bank and the U. S. Department of the Treasury, President Boris Yeltsin (葉利欽) 's regime privatized the state-owned industrial sector, creating a class of oligarchs ( 寡頭政治集團成員 ), who, knowing how unstable conditions were at home. sent their money abroad instead of investing it at home. In contrast, China, the biggest winner from globalization, did not follow the IMF formula. Of the former states of the Soviet bloc, only a few, notably Poland and Hungary, managed to grow, which they did by iguodng IMF advice and adopting expansionary plans, including spending more than they collected in taxes. Botswana and Uganda are also success stories: despite their disadvantages, their countries achieved vigorous growth by creating stable civil societies, liberalizing trade and implementing reforms that ran counter to IMF prescriptions.

    23、根據(jù)材料，回答23-31問題。 Keeping Cut Flowers 　　1. While everybody enjoys fresh cut flowers around his house, few people know how to keep them for as long as possible. This may be done by keeping in mind a few simple facts. 2. An important thing to remember about cut flowers is that they are sensitive to temperature. For example, studies have shown that cut carnations (康乃馨) retain their freshness eight, times longer when kept at 12~C than when kept at 26~C. Keeping freshly harvested flowers at the right temperatures is probably the most important aspect of flower care. 　　3. Flowers are not intended by nature to live very long. Their biological purpose is simply to attract birds or insects, Such as bees, for pollination (授粉)fg). After that, they quickly dry up and die. The process by which flowers consume oxygen and produce carbon dioxide (二氧化碳), called respiration (呼吸), generates the energy the flower needs to give the flower its shape and colour. The making of seeds also depends on this energy. While all living things respire, flowers have a high level of respiration. A result of all this respiration is heat, and for flowers the level of heat relative to the mass of the flower is very high. Respiration also brings about the eventual death of the flower. Thus the greater the level of respiration, the sooner the flower dies. 　　4. How, then, to control the rate at which flowers die? By controlling respiration. How is respiration controlled? By controlling temperature we know that respiration produces heat, but the reverse is also true. Thus by maintaining low temperatures, respiration is reduced and the cut flower will age more slowly. 　　5. Another vital factor in keeping cut flowers is the quality of the water in which they are placed. Flowers find it difficult to "drink" water that is dirty or otherwise polluted. Even when water looks and smells clean, it almost certainly contains harmful substances that can endanger the flowers. To rid the water of these unwanted substances, household chlorine bleach (含氯漂白劑) can be used in small quantities. It is recommended that 15 drops of chlorine bleach ( at 4% solution) be added to each litre of water. The water and solution should also be replaced each day.

    31、根據(jù)材料，回答31-36問題。 Technology Transfer in Germany When it comes to translating basic research into industrial success, few nations can match Germany. Since the 1940s, the nation's vast industrial base has been fed with a constant stream of new ideas and expertise from science. And though German prosperity (繁榮) has faltered (衰退) over the past decade because of the huge cost of unifying east and west as well as the global economic decline, it still has an enviable record for turning ideas into profit. Much of the reason for that success is the Fraunhofer Society, a network of research institutes that exists solely to solve industrial problems and create sought-after technologies. But today the Fraunhofer institutes have competition. Universities are taking an ever larger role in technology transfer, and technology parks are springing up all over. These efforts are being complemented by the federal programmes for pumping money into start-up companies. Such a strategy may sound like a recipe for economic success, but it is not without its critics. These people worry that favouring applied research will mean neglecting basic science, eventually starving industry of fresh ideas. If every scientist starts thinking like an entrepreneur (企業(yè)家), the argument goes, then the traditional principles of university research being curiosity-driven, free and widely available will suffer. 'Others claim that many of the programmes to promote technology transfer are a waste of money because half the small businesses that are promoted are bound to go bankrupt within a few years. While this debate continues, new ideas flow at a steady rate from Germany's research networks, which bear famous names such as Helmholtz, Max Planck and Leibniz. Yet it is the fourth network, the Fraunhofer Society, that plays the greatest role in technology transfer. Founded in 1949, the Fraunhofer Society is now Europe's largest organisation for applied technology, and has 59 institutes employing 12, 000 people. It Continues to grow. Last year, it swallowed up the Heinrich Hertz Institute for Communication Technology in Berlin. Today, there are even Fraunhofers in the US and Asia.
    What factor can be attributed to German prosperity? A．Technology transfer. B．Good management. C．Hard work. D．Fierce competition. 32、 Which of the following is NOT true of traditional university research____? A．It is free. B．It is profit-driven. C．It is widely available D．It is curiosity-driven.
    33、 The Fraunhofer Society is the largest organisation for applied technology in____ A．Asia B．USA C．Europe D．Africa
    34、 When was the Fraunhofer Society founded____? A．In 1940. B．Last year. C．After the unification. D．In 1949.
    35、The word "expertise" in line 3 could be best replaced by____ A．"experts" B．"scientists" C．"scholars" D．"special knowledge" 36、根據(jù)材料，回答36-41問題。 Star Quality 　　A new and-cheating system for counting the judges' scores in ice skating is flawed,according to leading sports specialists．Ice skating's governing body announced the new rules last week after concerns that a judge at the Winter Olympics may have been unfairly influenced．Initially the judges in the pairs figure-skating event at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City voted 5 to 4 to give the gold medal to a Russian pair, even though they had a fall during their routine．But the International Skating Union suspended the French judge for failing to reveal that she had been put under pressure to vote for the Russians．The International Olympics Committee then decided to give a second gold to the Canadian runners-up (亞軍). 　　The ISU, skating's governing body, now says it intends to change the rules．In future 14 judges will judge each event, but only 7 of their scores -- selected at random will count．The ISU won't finally approve the new system until it meets in June but already UK Sport．The British Government's sports body has expressed reservations．"I remain to be convinced that the random selection system would offer the guarantees that everyone concerned with ethical sport is looking for", says Jerry Bingham, UK Sport's head of ethics (倫理). 　　A random system can still be manipulated, says Mark Dixon, a specialist on sports statistics from the Royal Statistical Society in London．"The score of one or two judges who have been nobbled(受到賄賂) may still be in the seven selected．" 　　Many other sports that have judges, including diving, gymnastics, and synchronizdd swimming have a system that discards the highest and lowest scores．If a judge was under pressure to favour a particular team, they would tend to give it very high scores and mark down the opposition team, so their scores wouldn't count．It works for diving, says Jeff Cook, a member of the international government body's technical committee．"If you remove those at the top andbottom you're left with those in the middle, so you're getting a reasonable average．" 　　Since the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, diving has tightened up in its system still further．Two separate panels of judges score different rounds of diving during top competitions．Neither panel knows the scores given by the other．"We have done this to head off any suggestion of bias．"says Cook. 　　Bingham urged the ISU to consider other options．"This should involve examining the way in which other sports deal with the problem of adjudicating (裁定 ) on matter of style and presentation" he says.
    Who won the gold medal in the Paris figure-skating event____? A．The Russian pair B．The Canadian pair. C．Both the Russian pair and the Canadian pair. D．The French pair.
    37、 According to the new rules proposed by the ISU, which of the following is right____? A．The number of judges will be doubled. B．Only half of the judges will score. C．Only some selected judges will score. D．Only half of the scores will count.
    38、 What does Jerry Bingham express by saying "1 remain to be convinced"____? A．His anger. B．His criticism. C．His agreement． D．His doubt.
    39、 The attitude of those concerned in the UK to the new rules proposed by ISU can be best described as____ A．indifferent B．reserved C．enthusiastic D．positive
    40、Which of the following is NOT true of the scoring system for diving____
    A．It is more biased. B．It is more reasonable. C．It is fairer． D．It is tighter. 41、根據(jù)材料，回答41-46問題。 Eat More, Weigh Less, Live Longer 　　Clever genetic detective work may have found out the reason why a near starvation dietprolongs the life of many animals．Ronald Kahn at Harvard Medical School in Boston, US, and his colleagues have been ableto extend the lifespan (壽命) of mice by 18 per cent by blocking the rodent's (嚙齒動物) increase of fat in specific cells． This suggests that thinness -- and not necessarily diet --promotes long life in "calorie (卡路里) restricted" animals． 　　"It's very cool work． " says aging researcher Cynthia Kenyon of the University of California, San Francisco． "These mice eat all they want, lose weight and live longer． It's like heaven."Calorie restrition dramatically extends the lifespan of organisms as different as worms and rodents． Whether this works in humans is still unknown, partly because few people are willing to submit to such a strict diet． 　　But many researchers hope they will be able to trigger the same effect with a drug once they understand how less food leads to a longer life． One theory is that eating less reduces the increase of harmful things that can damage cells． But Kahn's team wondered whether the animals simply benefit by becoming thin． 　　To find out, they used biology tricks to disrupt the insulin (胰島素) receptor (受體) gene in lab mice -- but only in their fat cells． "Since insulin is needed to help fat cells store fat, these animals were protected against becoming fat," explains Kahn． 　　This slight genetic change in a single tissue had dramatic effects． By three months of age, Kahn, thoses modified mice had up to 70 per cent less body fat than normal control mice, despite the fact that they ate 55 per cent more food per gram of body weight． In addition, their lifespan increased． The average control mouse lived 753 days, while the thin rodents averaged a lifespan of 887 days． After three years, all the control mice had died, but one-quarter of the modified rodents were still alive． "That they get these effects by just manipulating the fat cells is controversial," says Leonard Guarente of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, who studies calorie restriction and aging． But Guarente says Kahn has yet to prove that the same effect is responsible for increased lifespan in calorie-restricted animals． "It might be the same effect or there might be two routes to long life," he points out, "and that would be very interesting． "
    Ronald Kahn and his colleagues can make mice live longer by____ A．offering them less food B．giving them a balanced diet C．disrupting the specific genes in their fat cells D．preventing them growing larger
    42、According to the passage, we do not know whether humans will benefit from takingin fewer calories partly because____ A．humans, worms and rodents are different B．most people are not willing to be put on a strict diet C．the effect is not known D．genetic changes in tissues can not be performed on humans
    43、 What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply____? A．People like to lose weight, but they do not like to eat less． B．People want to go to heaven, but they do not want to die C．Mice will go to heaven if they lose weight． D．Mice enjoy losing weight．
    44、 The average modified mouse lived____ A．3 years B．753 days C．More than 3 years D．887 days
    45、What can be inferred from the passage about the route to long life____? A．It remains to be studied． B．It has already been discovered． C．Eating more leads to long life． D．Eating less leads to long life． 閱讀下面的短文，文章中有5處空白，文章后面有6組文字，請根據(jù)文章的內(nèi)容選擇5組文字，將其分別放回文章原有位置，以恢復(fù)文章原貌。請將答案涂在答題卡相應(yīng)的位置上。 46、根據(jù)材料，回答46-51問題。 Why Would They Falsely Confess? Why on earth would an innocent person falsely confess to committing a crime? To most people, it just doesn't seem logical. But it is logical, say experts, if you understand what can happen in a police interrogation (審訊) room. Under the right conditions, people's minds are susceptible (易受影響的) to influence, and the pressure put on suspects during police grillings (盤問) is enormous. ____ (46) ____"The pressure is important to understand, because otherwise it's impossible to understand why someone would say he did something he didn't do. The answer is: to put an end to an uncomfortable situation that will continue until he does confess. " Developmental psychologist Allison Redlich recently conducted a laboratory determine how likely people are to confess to things they didn't do. ____ (47) ____The researchers then intentionally crashed the computers and accused the participants of hitting the "alt" key to see if they would sign a statement falsely taking responsibility. Redlich's findings clearly demonstrate how easy it can be to get people to falsely confess: 59 percent of the young adults in the experiment immediately confessed. ____ (48) ____Of the 15-to-16-year-olds, 72 percent signed confessions, as did 78 percent of the 12-to-13-year-olds. "There's no question that young people are more at risk," says Saul Kassin, Professor at Williams College, who has done similar studies with similar results. ____ (49) ____a psychology both Kassin and Redlich note that the entire "interrogation" in their experiments consisted of a simple accusation -- not hours of aggressive questioning -- and still, most participants falsely confessed. Because of the stress of a police interrogation, they conclude, suspects can become convinced that falsely confessing is the easiest way out of a bad situation. ____ (50) ____

D．"But adults are highly vulnerable too. " E．How could an innocent person admit to doing something he didn't do?
