第1题

In cities across the United States, old factories, warehouses, schools railroad statio

ns and other buildings are being renovated for new uses.City planners and private investors are finding the good buildings, no matter how old, can be remodeled for new purposes.“If you’d asked someone four or five years ago whether he’d rent an apartment in an abandoned piano factory of clothing warehouse, he’d have thought you were crazy,” says a New York architect.“Today, many people are eager to do it.” The renovating may include a former city hall or courthouse changed into offices; a bank or church changed into a restaurant; or , as in Plains, Georgia, a railroad station used as a center for a presidential campaign.

Only a few decades ago, renovation was unpopular and generally far more expensive than taking down abandoned building and string from the beginning.A change began in the 1960s with a number of well-advertised projects.They included Ghirardelli Square in San Francisco, where an old chocolate factory was restored and made into shops and restaurants, Trolly Square in Salt Lake, where unused warehouses were made into artists’ studios and apartments.

What caused the change？ “One reason is nostalgia,” a San Francisco builder suggests.“Maybe old is better than new, many people are saying.Feelings about preserving attractive or historic buildings have changed a great deal.” A second cause is economy.The cost of tearing down an old building and constructing a new one from nothing now has risen to the point where it is often less expensive to fix a solid older structure.Also builders realize that fixing up an existing building often requires no new permits, sewer lines, or water connections.

Even when the costs of restoration are the same as or a bit more than the costs of putting up a new building, fixing the old building may be better.A Boston architect says The advantage comes when you can develop a final project that is more desirable than a new building – one with the right location, more space, more floor area, a special character, materials of a particular quality.” Gradually, architects and builders are developing knowledge about renovation and preservation, bringing imagination and creativity to the job.

16.In the United States, renovating old buildings_____.

A.has had a long history

B.is becoming increasingly popular

C.is still unpopular

D.has just caught the fancy of architects and builders

17.Ghirardelli Square, Trolley Square, and the Soho district are projects that_________.

A.have been given much publicity

B.are little known to the public

C.have been widely discussed among builders and city planners

D.have changed the building business

18.“Nostalgia” in the 3rd paragraph most probably means________.

A.being conservative

B.being keen on saving money

C.being fond of things new

D.being fond of things of the remote past

19.Which of the following statements is true？

A.Every old building can be renovated for new uses

B.Renovating old buildings is always less costly than putting up new ones

C.Renovation does not require imagination and creativity

D.Fixing an old building may have advantages even when it costs a little more

第2题

The new studies show that fewer than half of the 9th graders in many of the nation’s l

argest cities，ever graduate.The studies clearly show that the dropout rate isn’t dropping.And，in particular，the dropout rate isn’t dropping for poor and minority students.

Amazingly，though so many people regret the rising dropout rate，our schools continue to lack formal plans—or any plans—about students’ motivation.Most schools have no game plans to ensure that students understand that school will be completely necessary.Schools expect the children to act as the school is important，but they never teach them to believe that.

Years ago，families ensured that the offspring recognized the value of school.But in many modern families，the children may fail to recognize the importance of school life just because these families may actually tell the children that school is not important.Since many families are not motivating their children to be interested students，young professionals，like teachers，may need to provide this training.Otherwise，it is likely that the dropout rate will continue to not drop，but only worsen.

Here are some strategies to convince even the most apathetic students that they must stay in school.

Ask students if they will ever need to work：The world has changed.100 years ago，factory work was the booming job，and it required no education.Today，factories are increasingly automated.Most computerrelated jobs require education and at least a high school diploma.

Ask students which century they will be prepared for：In 1900，the most common jobs were farm laborer and domestic servant—education not needed.Now，the most common jobs are office and sales worker—education and diploma usually needed.6 out of 10 people today work in a store or an office.

Ask students to devise a way that the employee could be replaced.For example，the coming trend in fast food is to use computers rather than people to run the restaurant.A prototype is apparently already being tested.The students should discover that most jobs that lack education and diploma requirements will be ripe for automation.

1.By saying “the dropout rate isn’t dropping”，the author means to say that ________.

A、most of the 9th graders can afford to go to school

B、quite a few of the 9th graders can graduate

C、the majority of the 9th graders cannot graduate

D、the minority of the 9th graders can’t graduate

2.The author’s attitude towards the schools is ________.

A、Criticism

B、Praise

C、Ignoring

D、Support

3.With the help of some professionals，________.

A、fewer students may stay in schools

B、some parents will be more convinced of their children’s future

C、the dropout rate in schools may drop

D、all the kids problems should be solved

4.What does the underlined word “offspring” probably mean？

A、friends

B、Students

C、Children

D、Parents

5.According to the passage，________ doesn’t need education.

A、an automation job of today

B、a computerrelated job now

C、an office job at present

D、a domestic servant’s job in 1900

第11题

（题干） Imagine waking up and finding the value of your assets has been halved. No， you’re

not an investor in one of those hedge funds that failed completely. With the dollar slumping to a 26-year low against the pound， already-expensive London has become quite unaffordable. A coffee at Starbucks， just as unavoidable in England as it is in the United States， runs about ￥8. The once all-powerful dollar isn’t doing a Titanic against just the pound. It is sitting at a record low against the euro and at a 30-year low against the Canadian dollar. Even the Argentine peso and Brazilian real are thriving against the dollar. The weak dollar is a source of humiliation， for a nation’s self-esteem rests in part on the strength of its currency. It’s also a potential economic problem， since a declining dollar makes imported food more expensive and exerts upward pressure on interest rates. And yet there are substantial sectors of the vast U.S. economy from giant companies like Coca-Cola to mom-and-pop restaurant operators in Miami for which the weak dollar is most excellent news. Many Europeans may view the U.S. as an arrogant superpower that has become hostile to foreigners. But nothing makes people think more warmly of the U.S. than a weak dollar. Through April， the total number of visitors from abroad was up 6.8 percent from last year. Should the trend continue， the number of tourists this year will finally top the 2000 peak？ Many Europeans now apparently view the U.S. the way many Americans view Mexico as a cheap place to vacation， shop and party， all while ignoring the fact that the poorer locals can’t afford to join the merrymaking. The money tourists spend helps decrease our chronic trade deficit. So do exports， which thanks in part to the weak dollar， soared 11 percent between May 2006 and May 2007. For first five months of 2007， the trade deficit actually fell 7 percent from 2006. If you own shares in large American corporations， you’re a winner in the weak-dollargamble. Last week Coca-Cola’s stick bubbled to a five-year high after it reported a fantastic quarter. Foreign sales accounted for 65 percent of Coke’s beverage business. Other American companies profiting from this trend include McDonald’s and IBM. American tourists， however，shouldn’t expect any relief soon. The dollar lost strength the way many marriages break up slowly， and then all at once. And currencies don’t turn on a dime. So if you want to avoid the pain inflicted by the increasingly pathetic dollar， cancel that summer vacation to England and look to New England. There， the dollar is still treated with a little respect. 问题： Why do Americans feel humiliated？A.Their economy is plunging.

B.They can’t afford trips to Europe.

C.Their currency has slumped.

D.They have lost half of their assets.

How does the weak dollar affect the life of ordinary Americans？A.They have to cancel their vacations in New England.

B.They find it unaffordable to dine in mom-and-pop restaurants.

C.They have to spend more money when buying imported goods.

D.They might lose their jobs due to potential economic problems.

In the author's opinion， the weak dollar leads to the following consequences EXCEPT that.A.The dallar has little respect in New England.

B.Europeans begin to think more warmly of the U.S.

C.Imported food is more expensive to the Americans.

D.Some large American corporations make more profits.

According to the last paragraph， what is the author’s advice to Americans？A.They treat the dollar with a little respect.
