Part I
Reading Comprehension
(30%)
Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or
unfinished
statements.
For
each
of
them
there
are
four
choices
marked
A,
B,
C
and
D.
You
should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
The multi- billion-dollar Western pop music industry is
under fire.
It is being blamed by the
United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide.
“
The most worrying development is
a
culture
of
drug- friendliness,
”
says
the
UN's
International
Narcotics
Control
Board
in
a
report
released last year.
The 74-page study says that pop music, as a global industry, is by far
the
most influential
trend-setter for young people of most cultures.
“
Some songs encourage people to take drugs. (76)
Certain
pop
stars
make
statements
and
set
examples
as
if
the
use
of
drugs
for
non-medicinal
purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle,
”
the study says.
Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite
the
occasional
shock
of
death
by
overdose
(
过量用药
).
“
Such
incidents
tend
to
be
seen
as
an
occasion to mourn (
哀悼
) the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect
of
drug
use,
”
it
notes.
Since
the
1970s,
several
internationally
famous
singers
and
movie
stars --including
Elvis
Presley,
Janice
Joplin,
John
Belushi,
Jimi
Hendrix,
Jonathan
Melvin
and
Andy
Gibbs--have
died
of
eitherdrug
abuse
or
drugrelated
illnesses.
With
the
globalization
of
popular music, messages promoting, drug abuse are now reaching beyond their countries of origin.
“
In most countries, the names of certain POP stars have become familiar to the members of every
household,
”
the study says.
The
UN
study
also
blames
the
media
for
its
description
of
certain
drug
incidents,
which
encourages rather than prevents drag abuse.
“
Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is
increasingly regarded as being acceptable or even attractive,
”
says Hamid Ghodse, president of the
Board.
“
Powerful pressure groups mn political campaigns aimed at legalizing controlled drugs,
”
he says. Ghodse also points out that all thee developments have created an environment which is
tolerant(
容忍的
)
of
or
even
favorable
to
drug
abuse
and
spoils
international
drug
prevention
effortscurrently under way.
The
study
focuses
on
demand
reduction
and
prevention
within
an
environment
that
has
become tolerant of drug abuse. The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties,
and to act against the pro-drug (
赞成吸毒
) messages of the youth culture to which young people
increasingly are be'rug exposed.

C. No efforts have been made to prevent the spreading of drag abuse.

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is
that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health
Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.
It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries.
For example, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to
14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.
What arethe implications of these increased numbers of older folk?
(77) One of the biggest
worries for governments is that the longer people live. the more likelihood there is for diseases and
for
disability(
残疾
).
Attention
is
being
paid
to
the
need
to
keep
people
as
healthy
as
possible,
including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.
(78)
Another
significant
problem
is
the
need
for
the
younger
generations
to
understand
and
value the older people in their society. In some African couintries, certainly in Asia, older people
are
respected
and
regarded
as
the
ones~
with
special
knowledge.
Yet
traditions
are
fading
away
daily,
which
does
not
ensure
the
continued
high
regard
of
older
people.
As
society
changes,
attitudes will change.
Much
needs
to
be
done
to
get
rid
of
age
discrimination
(
歧视
)
in
employment.
Life-long
learning programs need to be provided to enable older peopleto be active members in a country's
development.
Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older
people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to, build a suitable safety net.
To achieve equality in such matters will take considerable time and effort. One thing is sure:
there is no time to be lost.
6. The proportion of older people______.
A. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countries
B. is one- seventh of the population developing countries

most worded about?
A. The diseases and disability of older people.
B. The longer life and good health of people.
C. The loss of taxes on older people.
D. The increasing respect for older people.
8. It is stated directly in the passage that older people should______.
A. be treated differently in different cultures
B. enjoy a similar lifestyle
C. be ignored as society changes
D. be valued by the younger generations
9. Which of the following measures is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?
A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.
B. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.
C. Providing free health care for sick older people.
D. Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.
10. The author concludes in the last paragraph that______.
A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problem
B. population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgently
C. people are too busy to solve the population ageing problem
D. much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problem
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following passage:
(79) Extensive new studies suggestthat the world has, made extraordinary progress in reducing
poverty in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid
and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and
economic liberalization (
自由化
) after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the
Institute
for
International
Economics
in
Washington,
finds
that
the
proportion
of
the
6.1
billion
people in the world who live on $$1 a day or less shrank from 63 .percent in 1950 to 35 percent in
1980 and 12 percent in 1999. By some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still,
economists
agree
that
poverty
has
plunged
in
key
nations
such
as
India
and
especially
China,
thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom.
“
This is a huge success for the
world as a whole,
”
says Harvard University economist Richard Cooper.
“
We are doing something
right.
”
The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington'
an
event that has been troubled in recent
years by protests that the Bank and its sister institution, the
International Monetary Fund (IMF
国际货币基金组织
), have done too little for the world's poor.
(80) The new economic research will not put an end to that dispute. Vast populations remain poor,
and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are
helpful to understand what policies should be followed by th6se institutions and hundreds of other
development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dramatic
gains
are
under
way,
the
present
policies--
calling
for
open
markets,
freebusiness
activities,
and
tight monetary control
are working and correct.

But critics of
IMF
and World Bank policies maintain that such s stories as
Japan,
China,
South
Korea
and
Singapore
are
rooted
in
more
than
just
markets.
These
nations have managed to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their
domestic
industries
were

pushing
exports
to
rich
nations,
