22、n There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some True-False questions or Multiple-Choice questions. Choose among A, B, C, and D or between T and F to answer each question. Write the letter of your choice on your Answer Sheet.Passage 1The people who lived in Rome 2,000 years ago
23、were already complaining about the noise in their city. They couldnt sleep, they said, with all that traffic in the streets. For them, noise was merely a disturbance. For us it has become a real danger. We know that the sounds of an average city are loud enough to cause serious damage to the inhabit
24、ants hearingin the United States, one person out of twenty has suffered some hearing loss. And all over the world the situation is getting worse all the time, since noise increases with the population.Noise has also increased enormously in the 20th century with the development of machines. We live s
25、urrounded by loud planes, trucks, motorcycles, buses, electric tools, radios, pneumatic drillsthat roar day and night up to 90 or 100 decibels. The decibel is the unit used to measure the loudness of sound. A normal conversation reaches 55 decibels, thunder roars at 70 decibels, a jet plane goes to
26、100 decibels and more, and an ordinary subway train, approaching the station, can be twice as loud as the loudest jet. The average discotheque reaches around 118 decibels. At 120 decibels the ear stops hearing sound, and pain starts.Unfortunately, the human ear does not judge clearly the degree of l
27、oudness of a noise. A sound ten decibels louder than another one is felt as twice as loud, when in fact it is ten times louder. Since we cannot measure the increase or decrease of noise, we never know to what danger we are exposed.But it is not only our hearing that is threatened. It has been establ
28、ished that loud noises, over a period of time, cause loss of sleep, anger, and many mental and physical problems. Such problems have been observed among factory workers, prisoners in large prisons, and people who drive heavy trucks, operate pneumatic drills, or go frequently to rock-and-roll concert
29、s.Is there a solution? We do know how to build quieter machines, if the public wants them. But merchants point out that people who buy motorcycles, for instance, prefer the loudest ones because they sound more powerful. Some cities are trying to enforce more strictly their anti-noise laws. In Memphi
30、s automobilists are fined fifty dollars for honking; they may lose their right to drive if they do it again. People who carry noisy radios in public places may lose them if they are caught with them.Actually, it will take everybodys efforts to keep city noises from increasing. Even so, say the exper
31、ts, in twenty years the cities will be twice as loud as they are today because of the growth of the population. The inhabitants will have to shout to be heard at the dinner table. Unless, of course, they have all become completely deaf.51. For them, noise was merely a disturbance.A. only B. only and
32、 nothing else C. not D. not only52. that roar day and night up to 90 or 100 decibels.A. as loud as B. louder than C. higher than D. go up53. It has been established that loud noises, , cause loss of sleep, anger and many.A. result from B. result C. because D. lead to54. We do know how they build qui
33、eter machines, if the public wants them.A. machines making people quieter B. calm machinesC. machines making less noise D. silent machines55. Actually, it will take everybodys efforts to keep city noises from increasing.A. go on increasing B. preventfrom increasingC. keepincreasing D. stopo increase
34、Passage 2In many respects international trade is no different from trade within a country. People who have more of a good than they want seek out other people who have something they lack. Through exchange, both parties attempt to make themselves better off. The complications of international trade
35、arise because the two parties use different monies. An American who wants to buy a Japanese automobile cannot expect the Japanese manufacturer to accept U.S dollars in payment, unless by sheer coincidence the manufacturer happens at the time to want to buy a new computer from an American firm. Other
36、wise the auto manufacturer will be stuck with money that no tempura shop or geisha in Tokyo will accept; in Japan the dollars are useless.Of course, things are rarely as complicated as is suggested above. In both the United States and Japan there are banks that specialize in buying and selling forei
37、gn currencies. The sophisticated American would never offer dollars to the Japanese. Instead he would go to his bank and purchase Japanese yen with his dollars, then offer yen in payment for the car. Availability of yen would then make trade with Japan no more complicated than buying groceries at a
38、neighborhood supermarket. But what is the price of yen? This question is more than slightly important. If yen are cheapif many can be bought for a dollarthen buying Japanese goods will be attractive to Americans, and American goods will be expensive to Japanese buyers.The quantities of goods exchang
39、ed between two countries depend on complex forces. Even though unfettered trade might allow the world to consume more, each country is likely to be more concerned about employment and incomes at home than about economists assurances of the efficiency of trade. Both countries may therefore try to enc
40、ourage exports and discourage imports. Obviously, both countries cannot succeed at once.There is another side of the situation for many countriesthe developing countries especially, but also small island nations, such as Japan and Great Britain. Their ability to import goods in the future may be as
41、important as economic efficiency and full employment in the present. These countries depend on imports of spare parts, equipment, and raw material to keep their economies operating. Not to have the foreign exchange to buy a new bearing for a steam turbine, or oil, or fertilizer, when the need arises
42、 is a risk they simply cannot afford. For this reason, countries, even rich countries, try to keep reserves of foreign currencies around. Just as individuals keep savings to meet emergencies and to cover payments on the television if they are laid off, so do nations attempt to maintain hoards of for
43、eign currencies to cover unexpected events.The price of any foreign currency expressed in the local currency (say, dollars) is thus a major issue. And it is closely tied to the need to maintain reserves and the desire to manage certain aspects of the domestic economy. Over the past two centuries, a
44、number of international monetary systems have been set up to deal with these questions. All have proved inadequate. The interests of some countries inevitably conflict with the interests of others, and so the system collapses. But in spite of its limitations and faults, the international financial s
45、ystem is important to all of us.56. Through exchange, both parties attempt to make themselves better off.A. a gathering of people for food and amusementB. an association of people having the same political aimsC. a group of people doing something togetherD. one of the people or sides in an agreement
46、 or argument57. Just as and to cover payments on the television if they are laid off, .A. put aside B. bought without fully being paid forC. stopped D. dismissed temporarily 58. , so do nations attempt to maintain hoards of foreign currencies to cover unexpected events.A. to includeB. to spread overC. to protectD. to be enough money for59. The price of any foreign currency expressed in the local currencyA. shown in some other wayB. shown in wordsC. sent by expressD. pressed
