Questions 61-70 are based on the following passage.
Are you interested in seeing the beautiful fall foliage of New England but tired of traffic jams and overbooked hotels? Then this year forget the crowds in New England and see the beautiful colors of autumn in the Catskills.
These rugged mountains in New York State, just 90 miles northwest of New York City, are famous for the legendary tales of Rip Van Winkle, and more recently for the summer hotels that sprang up in the region during the 1940s, 1950s, and 1960s. Families trying to escape the heat of New York City found the Catskills to be the perfect place to stay for a month or so each summer. By the late 1950s there were over 500 resorts and hotels offering nighttime entertainment as well as all kinds of outdoor activities.
Famous comedians like Jackie Gleason, Joan Rivers, and Sid Caesar all got their start touring the hotel clubs here. Since the introduction of air-conditioning and cheaper air travel, however, families have stopped coming to the Catskills in such large numbers, choosing instead more distant locations at different times of the year. Many of the Catskills hotels closed in the 1970s, but some remain and have expanded and changed their facilities to meet the needs of today’s visitors.
Currently, there are many activities available to the traveler besides witnessing the changing colors of the leaves. There is an all-organic sheep farm where visitors can see how a traditional sheep farm operates. There are also hundreds of miles of scenic drives in the area. Route 42, for instance, is an excellent site for spotting bald eagles. For more information on vacations in the Catskills, call the Office of Public Information.

Questions 71-80 are based on the following passage.
Questions 71-80 are based on the following passage.
First, of course, it is plain that in a few years everyone will have at his elbowseveral times more mechanical energy than he has today.
Second, there will be advances in biological knowledge as far-reaching asthose that have been made in physics. We are only beginning to learn that we cancontrol our biological environment as well as our physical one. Starvation has beenprophesied twice to a growing world population: by Malthus about 1.8 billion andby Crookes about 1.9 billion. It was headed off the first time by taking agriculture toAmerica and the second time by using the new fertilizers. Soon starvation will beheaded off by the control of the diseases and the heredity of plants and animals —by shaping our own biological environment.
And third,1 come back to the haunting theme of automation. The mostcommon species in the factory today is the man who works or minds a simplemachine — the operator. Before long he will be as extinct as the hand-loom weaverand the dodo (老古董). The repetitive tasks of industry will be taken over by themachines, as the heavy tasks were taken over long ago; and the mental tedium willgo the way of physical exhaustion.Today we still distinguish,even amongrepetitive jobs, between the skilled and the unskilled, but in a few years to come allrepetition will be unskilled. We simply waste our time if we oppose this change.
71. This article was written to ________.
A. warn us of impending starvation
B. present facts about life in the near future
C. oppose biological advances
D. warn of the danger of automation

Questions 81-90 are based on the following passage.
Of all the areas of learning the most important is the development of attitudes. Emotional reactions as well as logical thought processes affect the behavior of most people.
“The burnt child fears the fire” is one instance; another is the rise of despots like Hitler. Both examples also point up the fact that attitudes stem from experience. In one case the experience was direct and impressive; in the other it was indirect and cumulative. The Nazis were indoctrinated largely by the speeches they heard and the books they read.
The classroom teacher in the elementary school is in a strategic position to influence attitudes. This is true partly because children acquire attitudes from those adults whose word they respect.
Another reason it is true is that pupils often delve somewhat deeply into a subject in school that has only been touched upon at home or has possibly never occurred to them before. To a child who had previously acquired little knowledge of Mexico, his teacher’s method of handling such a unit would greatly affect his attitude toward Mexicans.
The media through which the teacher can develop wholesome attitudes are innumerable. Social studies (with special reference to races, creeds and nationalities), science matters of health and safety, the very atmosphere of the classroom… these are a few of the fertile fields for the inculcation of proper emotional reactions.
However, when children come to school with undesirable attitudes, it is
unwise for the teacher to attempt to change their feelings by cajoling or scolding them. She can achieve the proper effect by helping them obtain constructive experiences.
To illustrate, first grade pupils afraid of policemen will probably alter their attitudes after a classroom chat with the neighborhood officer in which he explains how he protects them. In the same way, a class of older children can develop attitudes through discussion, research, outside reading and all-day trips.
Finally, a teacher must constantly evaluate her own attitudes, because her influence can be deleterious if she has personal prejudices. This is especially true in respect to controversial issues and questions on which children should be encouraged to reach their own decisions as a result of objective analysis of all the facts.
81. The central idea of the above passage is that ________.
A. attitudes affect our actions
B. teachers are important in developing or changing pupils’ attitudes
C. attitudes can be changed by some classroom experiences
D. by their attitudes, teachers inadvertently affect pupils’ attitudes
82. The word “despot” underlined in Paragraph 2 means a person ________.
A. who enjoys a high reputation
B. who is very successful in politics
C. with unlimited powers
D. who deposits a large sum of money in a bank
83. The pupils’ attitudes are NOT influenced by ________.
A. their parents’ persuasion to behave properly
B. their teachers’ attitudes
C. the speeches they hear and the books they read
D. such media as social studies, science matter and classroom atmosphere
84. It can be inferred from the passage that the pupils ________.
A. usually study a certain subject in greater details at home than at school
B. usually do not study a certain subject at home
C. study the subjects only at school
D. study a subject more deeply at school than at home
85. The example of the pupils’ learning about Mexico shows that ________.
A. a child usually learns the right things from their teachers
B. a teacher can correct a pupil’s wrong ideas
C. a teacher’s attitude can influence a child’s attitude by teaching
D. a child’s attitude is very changeable
86. The author implies that ________.
A. the teacher should guide all discussions by revealing her own attitude
B. in some aspects of social studies a greater variety of methods can be used in the upper grades than in the lower grades
C. people usually act on the basis of reasoning rather than emotion
D. children’s attitudes often come from those of other children
87. A statement made or implied in the passage is that ________.
A. attitudes can be based on the learning of falsehoods
B. a child can develop in the classroom an attitude about the importance of brushing his teeth
C. attitudes cannot easily be changed by rewards and lectures
D. the attitudes of elementary school-aged children are influenced primarily by their teachers
88. The passage specifically states that ________.
A. direct experiences are more valuable than indirect ones
B. whatever attitudes a child learns in school have already been introduced at home
C. teachers should always conceal their own attitudes
D. teachers can sometimes have an unwholesome influence on children
89. From the last paragraph, we can see that ________.
A. a teacher’s influence on children is always positive
B. children should be encouraged to reach their own decisions by ignoring objective facts
C. if improperly handled, a teacher’s influence can be very harmful to the children
D. children may develop prejudices if the teacher’s attitude is wrong

A. present certain facts of how the development of a person’s attitude can be influenced
B. show that our society is not doing enough to help children shape their attitudes

In retrospect, profound changes and tremendous progress have taken place in East Asia. Looking ahead, we can say with full confidence that relatively sound conditions exist for East Asia to raise its economic and social development to a new level.
It has become the shared understanding of East Asian countries to maintain regional peace and stability, develop the economy, science and technology, expand mutually beneficial cooperation, and promote common prosperity. East Asian countries are committed to the development of their relations on the basis of mutual respect, treating one another as equals and non-interference in one another’s internal affairs and properly addressing some existing differences through friendly consultations. With political stability, East Asian countries enjoy good relations among themselves. This has provided an important prerequisite for the sustained economic growth of East Asian countries and the development of their economic cooperation.
East Asian countries have built up significant economic strength. Some have entered the developed stage, others have joined the rank of newly industrialized nations, and still others have embarked on the road of rapid growth. Endowed with rich human and natural resources, countries in this region have formulated their development strategies in light of their actual conditions, constantly readjusted their industrial structure, effected shifts in modes of growth, promoted scientific and technological progress, and strengthened external economic exchanges. All this has provided a broad scope for East Asian countries to engage in economic cooperation.
Through their long histories, the peoples of East Asian countries have created their own fine cultural traditions. These cultural traditions attach great value to social communities uphold such virtues as self-strengthening arduous effort, industriousness, frugality modesty and eagerness to learn. They stress harmony in handling human relations and stand for peaceful coexistence in international relations. These cultural conditions constitute valuable spiritual legacy. As long as East Asian countries keep up with the trend of the times and carry forward and apply those cultural traditions and wisdom with oriental features in light of their actual national conditions while vigorously absorbing all fruits of human progress and civilization, the development of economic cooperation in East Asia will be further boosted by these spiritual motivations.
All in all, East Asia in today’s world is a force that cannot be ignored politically, economically, culturally or geographically. The prospect for East Asia’s economic development is promising.
Of course, while fully recognizing the economic achievements in East Asia, we must also look squarely into the difficulties and obstacles on the road ahead. For instance East Asian countries suffer, to varying degrees, from untenable economic structures, flawed financial systems, crude modes of growth, backward infrastructures and the enormous pressures brought about by over-population and the increasing need for environmental controls. These problems need to be addressed seriously and resolved effectively.
Southeast Asia’s recent financial crisis has taught people a profound lesson. Normal functioning of the financial system is crucial to overall economic stability and development. To maintain a sound and stable financial order in a closely intertwined global economy, it is imperative for countries to work to improve there financial system, policies and supervision, to strengthen both regional and international financial cooperation and jointly ward off excessive speculation by international hot money. Only by doing so can we effectively maintain the international financial order.
We believe that as long as we work together, the peoples of East Asia will certainly build a better future in the new century.

维护地区的和平与稳定,发展经济科技,扩大互利合作,促进共同繁荣,成为东亚各国的共识。东亚国家致力于在相互尊重、平等相待、互不干涉内政的基础上发展相互关系,通过友好协商妥善处理存在的某些分歧。东亚政局稳定,国家关系良好。这为东亚各国保持经济持续增长,发展经济合作,创造了重要的前提条件。
东亚国家具有相当的经济实力,有的进入了发达阶段,有的踏上了新兴工业化的航程,有的正在步入快速发展的行列。这一地区拥有丰富的劳动力资源和自然资源,各国都在按照自己的实际情况确定发展战略,不断调整产业结构,转变增展方式,促进科技进步,加强对外经济联系。这为东亚各国开展经济合作提供了广阔的空间。
东亚各国人民在漫长的历史实践中创造了自己的优秀文化。这种文化传统,以社会集体为重,崇尚自尊自强、艰苦奋斗、勤劳节俭、谦虚好学的美德,处理人际关系提倡和洽协调,对待国际关系主张和平共处。这是宝贵的精神财富。只要东亚各国结合本国的实际,顺应时代的潮流,弘扬和运用这些具有东方特色的文化传统和智慧,同时经济吸取世界各国人民创造的一切进步文明成果,就可以为不断发展东亚经济合作提供精神动力。
总之,从政治、经济、文化、地缘等各方面看,东亚都是当今世界一支不可忽视的力量。东亚经济发展的前景是光明的。
当然,在充分看到东亚经济发展取得成就的同时,也要正视前进中存在的困难和障碍。例如,东亚国家不同程度地存在不合理的经济结构,不健全的金融体制,粗放型的增长方式,滞后的基础设施建设,以及沉重的人口和环保压力等问题,都需要认真对待,切实加以解决。
近年来发生在东南亚的金融危机,给人们以深刻启示。金融体系的正常运行,对经济全局的稳定和发展至关重要。在各国经济联系日益密切的条件下,保持健康稳定的金融形势,需要各国在完善金融的体制、政策和监管上进行努力,需要加强国际和地区的金融合作,需要共同防范国际游资过度投机。这样才能有效地维护国际金融秩序。
