Many people decide to wear tattoos in order to express their artistic nature, their beliefs, or their feelings—in other words, to show their individuality (个性). A musician in a rock band may get a tattoo of a guitar on the arm. Some environmentalists may tattoo pictures of endangered animals on their shoulders. A tattoo can be a public sign to show what is important in a person’s life.

As you can see, there are many reasons why young North Americans get tattoos. A tattoo can be part of a group’s uniform, a sign of fashion, or an expression of individuality. The decision to get a tattoo is most often a result of the influence of friends or media or the desire to express oneself. For Jack, it was a mixture of all three.

64. Jack has got tattoos in order to ______.

A. show his great bravery B. gain a special experience

C. be different from others D. make himself more healthy

65. According to the passage, media images are linked to ______.

A. traditional lifestyle B. social position C. cultural background D. public interest

66. We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. some people get tattoos out of pressure B. tattoo is related to religious belief

C. getting tattoos costs a lot of money D. most people with tattoos are artists

67. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?

CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: Conclusion

D

Apparently, we are safe neither at home nor in the business office. We use water in both places, but the research shows that chemicals added to our local water supply to kill harmful bacteria can have unwanted side effects. These chemicals can cause potential harm through drinking and in seemingly harmless activities as cleaning one’s house. They are released (set free) from water by daily actions like water running out of tap, spraying from garden pipes, or splashing in dishwashers and washing machines. As the water is moving, these chemicals are released into the air and then breathed in. Once inside our bodies, they start to affect our health.

Does this mean we should stop bathing? No, say the scientists, but we should put all pollution into perspective. Activities at home such as the burning of coal, cooking oil, or even candles release carbon monoxide and particulates such as cigarette ashes which have been proven as harmful to health as working or living near heavy traffic. New rugs, bedding, and even clothing give off that “new smell,” which is a sure sign of chemicals. In the office, newly applied paint, newly purchased telephones and other telecommunications equipment, and computers release polluting chemicals, too. As offices and homes often have inadequate ventilation (通风), these chemicals can build up to become health problems. Their poisonous effects are only now being slowly recognized.

These facts suggest that, at a minimum, proper airing of newly purchased goods with an obvious chemical smell is a wise warning. Home and office windows should be opened during good weather. Even one’s car needs to be ventilated as well while in the garage.

We need further research to understand better other potential health dangers, too. For example, the effects of overcrowding of schools (carbon dioxide build-up), the factory work environment (an endless list of potentially dangerous substances), and even home heating and cooling (the air conditioner may be our enemies, not our friends) have only recently started to come to light. Until we understand the effects of our new technological environment better, we can only hope that “there is no place like home.”

68. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

A. The air we breathe in is harmful.

B. The water in everyday use is unsafe.

C. Chemicals are added to the drinking water.

D. Chemicals are released in the running water.

69. In Paragraph 2, the underlined sentence means that _______.

A. bathing should be done with caution

B. homes and offices should be aired often

C. we should prevent any pollution from doing harm to us

D. any pollution should be taken into consideration

70. What is the purpose of the passage?

A. To call on us to guard our water.

B. To show us that no place is like home.

C. To make us aware of the pollution around us.

D. To argue that neither homes nor offices are safe.

第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项并写在第二卷答题区。选项中有两项多余选项。

Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?

At least one group of people believes that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy. 71 Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green – eyed monster” and the UK is its home.
