第1题,1.??<font face="Arial">In the water around New York city is a
very small island called Liberty Island. On Liberty Island there is
a very special statue called the Statue of Liberty. It is one of the
most famous sights in the world.<br />The Statue of Liberty was a
gift from the people of France to the people of the United States.
The statue was made by a French sculptor named Frederic Auguste
Bartholdi. The inner support system was designed by Gustave Eiffel,
the same man who made the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris.<br
/>Liberty, of course, means freedom, and the Statue of Liberty was
given to the United States to celebrate the one-hundredth
anniversary of U.S independence from England. The statue was built
in France, taken apart piece by piece, and then rebuilt in the
United States. It was opened to the public on October 28, 1886.<br
/>As you might expect, the statue is very big. Visitors can ride an
elevator from the ground to the bottom of the statue. If they want,
they can walk 168 steps to reach the head of the statue where they
can look out and enjoy the beautiful sight of the city of New
York.<br /></font>

第2题,2.??<font face="Arial"> The opportunity to
study abroad should be something that sounds very exciting. For most
students, going abroad is a life-changing experience. There are
benefits for the host country as well. Not only do foreign students
spend money on tuition, housing, food and clothing, but they also
often take home positive impressions of their stay and the people
they met.<br /> But Japan, which hosts over
100,000 foreign students a year, is having trouble making the most
of its foreign students. “I’ve been here for three
years,” says a 26-year-old Chinese student in Osaka. “I
don’t have any Japanese friends, I’ve never been invited
to a Japanese home, and I’ve never felt very welcome
here.”<br /> That’s hardly the kind of
impression that the Japanese government wants foreign students
taking home to their families and classmates, but it seems to be a
widespread sentiment（情感）. One newspaper complained that, “If
foreign students tell everyone how they hate this country when they
go home, we should ask for what purpose we are hosting them to begin
with.” <br /> Many of the students arrive
with hopes to learn Japanese and stay on for a few years working for
a Japanese company. However, that doesn’t always work out.
Many foreign students graduate from a Japanese university only to
discover that “Japanese companies don’t hire foreigners
because they think they cannot trust non-Japanese people,”
says one job-seeker from the Philippines.<br />
This is a problem for universities. With the Japanese birth rate one
of the lowest in the world, Japanese schools are turning to foreign
students to fill their classrooms. <br />The government has actively
tried to increase the number of foreign students, up from fewer than
10,000 only 20 years ago. But, as one student in Tokyo says,
“Japan’s policy is one of persuading people to come and
then dissuading them from staying.”</font>
A. does good to most foreign students and the host
country

D. informing
A. <font face="Arial">Japan is one of the countries with the lowest
birth rate worldwide. </font>
B. The present situation in Japan lies in the slow action by the
government.
C. It is almost impossible for foreign graduates to work in
Japanese companies.
D. learning Japanese and having work experience are the hopes of
many arrivals.

第3题,3.??<font face="Arial">Believe it or not, optical illusion
(错觉)can cut highway crashes.<br />Japan is a case in point. It has
reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using
a simple optical illusion. Bent stripes, called chevrons (人字形),
painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster
than they really are, and thus drivers slow down.<br />Now the
American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in
Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan’s success.
Starting next year, the foundation will paint chevrons and other
patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how
well the patterns reduce highway crashes.<br />Excessive speed plays
a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents,
according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the
foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related
hazards are the greatest---curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and
bridges.<br />Some studies suggest that straight, horizontal bars
painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers
in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months
as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.<br />Chevrons,
scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are
driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to
be narrower. The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway
speed and the number of traffic accidents.</font>
