Passage 1
Many countries face a somewhat more serious economic problem in the form of an unfavorable trade balance with other nations. Such an imbalance exists when the total value of a country’s imports exceeds that of its exports. For example, if a country buys $25 billion of products from other countries, yet sells only $10 billion of its own products overseas, its trade deficit(贸易逆差)is $15 billion. Many underdeveloped nations find themselves in this position because they lack natural resources or the industrial capacity to use these resources, and thus have to import raw materials or manufactured goods. One effect of a trade deficit is the flow of currency out of a country. In the case of an underdeveloped nation,
this can cause many financial difficulties, including failure to meet debt payments and obstacles to creation of an industrial base. Even in the case of a fully developed nation such as the United States, a large trade deficit is a reason for alarm. American products, made by well-paid workers in U.S. industries, cost more to produce than those made in places like Asia, where labor and material costs are much lower. Money spent on foreign products is money not spent on items produced by domestic industries.
B6. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Some worldwide economic problems.
B. The cause and consequences of trade deficit. C. Lack of resources in underdeveloped countries.
D. High labor and material costs in developed countries
B7. According to the passage, a trade imbalance occurs when ________.
A. a country is facing serious financial problems
B. a country buys more from other countries than it sells overseas C. the value of a country’s exports is greater than that of its imports D. products imported are more expensive than those exported
D 8. Many underdeveloped countries have trade deficits because ________.
A. they failed to meet debt payments
B. they export most of their natural resources to other countries C. they borrow too much money from other countries
D. they have to import most of their manufactured products
A9. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible cause of a trade imbalance?
A. The flow of currency out of the country.
B. Low labor and material costs in Asian countries. C. Lack of natural resources.
D. An undeveloped industrial base.
B10. It can be inferred from this passage that American industries ________.
A. do not pay their workers sufficiently B. are hurt by a trade imbalance
C. imported labor and material from abroad D. are able to prevent a trade deficit
Passage 2 Newspapers, along with reporting the news, instruct, entertain, and give opinion. An important way for reading a large, big-city newspaper is knowing how to take it apart. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, classified ads? Does your paper have other sections? News stories give facts, not the author’s opinions. Editorials do the opposite: you can expect an editorial to take sides. Some newspaper editorials have a by-line with the author’s name, but many newspapers have unsigned editorials. These reflect the opinions of the publisher or editor. You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper. For example, you can expect headlines to omit unnecessary words. You can expect to find the most important facts in the lead paragraph (the first paragraph) of a news story. You can expect important news items to be on the front page. You can expect less important items to be on the inside pages. Most of all, the more you know about the current news, the more you will understand what is in the
newspaper; important stories are generally presented one day and followed up on following days. So, an important way for reading newspapers is reading one frequently.
C11. To read a large newspaper, a good way is ________.
A. to read it from cover to cover B. to do some paper-cutting C. to find separate sections
D. to predict what is inside the newspaper
A12. Which of the following statements about news stories is true?
A. News stories tell the facts without comments. B. News stories contain both facts and opinions. C. News stories reflect the opinions of the editor. D. News stories express the writer’s point of view.
B13. If you want to know less important news without any details, you can read ________.
A. the lead paragraphs of the news on the front page B. the headlines on the inside pages C. news stories on the front page
D. news items on the inside pages only
C14. To follow the current news, the best way is to ________.
A. read extensively and thoroughly B. read various newspapers skillfully C. read one newspaper frequently
D. read a large big-city newspaper carefully D15. The main idea of this passage is ________.
A. how to read stories and editorials B. how to find important news stories
C. how to tell apart different news sections D. how to read newspapers effectively 第三部分: A. 词汇与结构
