三、3.Reading Comprehension
Part III Reading Comprehension
Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
1.Fifty years ago, most people lived in rural areas. But the world has changed. In the near future, more than half of all people will live in cities for the first time in history.
City life is not always a bad thing, but many experts worry about this process of urbanization (城市化 ). A new report says that process is having a huge effect on human health and the quality of the environment. Of the three billion people who live in cities now, the report says, about one billion live in unplanned settlements. These are areas of poverty, slums that generally lack basic services like clean water, or even permanent housing. More than 60 million people are added to cities and surrounding areas each year, mostly in slums in developing countries. The international community has been too slow to recognize the growth of urban poverty. Policy makers need to increase investments in education, health care and other areas.
The report talks about some successful efforts by local governments and community groups. For example, it says in Columbia, engineers have created a bus system that has helped reduce air pollution and improve quality of life.
The link between urban poverty and the environment is serious, but governments also need to consider why people are moving out of rural areas. Climate changes, droughts, floods—there are many reasons forcing people to leave their farm land.
The two issues of poverty reduction and the environment have existed side by side, but rarely have they connected—until now. Governments are starting to understand that environmental collapse is not a natural cost of economic development. Instead, it is hurting the possibility for growth.
The main idea of the passage is about ______.
A.urbanization and its effects
B.a(chǎn) huge effect of human
C.economic development
D.the environment
2.
Which is NOT true among tile following statements?
A.Half a century ago, most people lived in the countryside.
B.Climate changes, droughts, floods are the reasons for many people to leave their farm land.
C.More than sixty million people are added to cities and surrounding areas every two years.
D.The international community has reacted slowly to the growth of urban poverty.
3.
The process of urbanization has caused many problems, the major one is ______.
A.economy
B.the growth of poverty in cities
C.education
D.health care
4.
According to the passage, what should be understood by governments?
A.The link between the environment and the economy is not serious enough.
B.The two issues of poverty reduction and the environment have often been connected
C.Environmental collapse is a result of economic development
D.Environmental collapse is affecting the possibility for growth.
6.Most people want to work, but it has become more difficult in today"s world to find work for everybody. The economies(經(jīng)濟) of the world need to grow by 4% each year just to keep the old number of jobs for people. Often this is not possible, and so more people are out of work(失業(yè)). Some people have no jobs now because new machines can do the work of many people in a short time. Also, machines do not ask for more money and longer holiday. In all of the countries of the world, machines are taking work from people, not only in factories but also on the farms. One machine can often do the work of forty people. About 75 000 people are moving to the cities a day to look for jobs, but only 70% of them can find jobs.
If tile economics of the world grow by 4% each year, ______.
A.people will have no jobs
B.people can still have jobs as before
C.4% of the people will have jobs
D.97% of the people will have jobs

B.Now more people are out of work.
C.Machines need more money and longer holidays.
D.Most people want to have jobs.
11.Most English people have three names: a first name, a middle name and the family name. Their family name comes last. For example, my full name is Jim Allan Green. Green is my family name. My parents gave me both of my other names.
People don"t use their middle names very much, So "John Henry Brown" is usually called "John Brown". People never use Mr. , Mrs. or Miss before their first names. So you can say John Brown, or Mr. Brown; but you should never say Mr. John. They use Mr. , Mrs. or Miss with the family name but never with the first name.
Sometimes people ask me about nay name. "When were you born, why did your parents call you Jim?" they ask. "Why did they choose that name?" The answer is they didn"t call me Jim.
