Business activities are becoming increasingly worldwide as many firms spread their operations into markets abroad. Many U.S. firms, for example, are trying to enlarge markets by doing business in China. India. Latin America. and Russia and other Eastern European countries. Multinational Corporations (MNCs), which operate in more than one country, at once, especially move operations to wherever they can find the least expensive employees who are able to do the work well. Production jobs requiring only basic or repetitive skills—such as sewing computer pieces —are usually the first to be moved abroad. MNCs can pay these workers a small part of what they would have to pay in their own countries, and often work them longer and harder. Most U.S. multinational businesses keep the majority of their upper-level management, marketing and finance within the United States. They employ some lower-level managers. and a large number of their production workers in offices, factories, and buildings in developing countries. MNCs based in the United States have moved many of their production operations to Central and Latin America, China, India. and Southeast Asia.
Merger is also becoming more common than in the past. In the United States, for example, tobacco product and food producer R. J. Reynolds Industries bought food giant Nabisco Brands to form RJR Nabisco Holdings Corp. in 1985, and in 1995 the industrial power generator, electronics, and machine producer Westinghouse Electric Corporation bought media production company CBS Inc.
60. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Business Abroad
B. Modern Business Development
C. Spread of MNCs
D. Business in the Developing Countries
61. Why do many U.S. firms move their factories to Central and Latin America, China, India, and Southeast Asia?
A. To help those countries to develop industries.
B. To get rid of the gap between the poor and the rich.
C. To produce more production.
D. To gain more value from the cheap employees.
62. The word “merger” in the first sentence of the last paragraph refers to ________.
A. joining B. bargaining
C. separating D. competing
63. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Worldwide business will be popular.
B. Employees will be inexpensive.
C. People should not work for foreign firms.
D. Small companies should keep on preventing being bought.

In 1993, New York State ordered stores to charge a certain amount of money on containers for drinks. Within a year, millions of aluminum(铝)cans and glass and plastic bottles had been returned. Plenty of companies were eager to accept the aluminum and glass as raw materials for new products. but because few could figure out what to do with the plastics. much of it was buried with rubbish in the landfills. This was not limited to New York. Unfortunately, there were too few uses for second-hand plastic.
Today. one out of five plastic bottles for soft drinks is recycled in the United States. The reason for the change is that now there are dozens of companies across the country buying used plastic bottles for soft drinks and turning them into fence posts, paint brushes, etc.
As the New York experience shows, recycling means more than simply separating valuable materials from the rest of the rubbish. Waste remains waste until somebody figures out how to give it a second life - and until arrangements to save money give that second life value. Without markets to collect used materials for recycling, throwaways actually reduce prices for used materials.
Making landfill space smaller, and rising cost for burying and burning rubbish are forcing local governments to look more closely at recycling. In many areas. the East Coast especially, recycling is already the least expensive waste-management choice. For every ton of waste recycled. a city doesn't need to pay for getting rid of throwaways. which, in parts of New York, is a large amount of money, and saves more, than $ 100 per ton. Recycling winds up the local economy by creating more jobs, reducing the cost of pollution control and supplying industries with more inexpensive refined materials.
67. What rule was made by New York State about containers for drinks?
A. Companies should be responsible for collecting and reusing used plastic bottles.
B. Throwaways should be collected by the state for recycling.
C. A fee should be charged on used containers for recycling.
D. Buyers had to pay for containers and could get their money back on returning them.
68. What does the underlined word “this” ( paragraph 1 ) refer to?
A. Extra pay for drinks.
B. Using second-hand plastics
C. Recycling of aluminum and glass.
D. Treating plastics as rubbish.
69. The key problem in dealing with returned plastic containers was _________.
A. to sell them at a good price
B. how to turn them into useful things
C. how to reduce their recycling cost
D. to lower the prices of used materials
70. Recycling has become the first choice to get rid of rubbish mainly because _______.
A. local governments find it easy to manage
B. recycling interests the jobless
C. recycling causes little pollution
D. other measures cost much more
71. It can be concluded from the passage that ____________.
A. rubbish can cover the shortage of materials
B. local governments in the U.S. can expect big values from pollution control
C. recycling is a good way to be suggested to deal with waste
D. landfills will still be widely used to get rid of throwaways

Before the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season. Drying, smoking, and salting could keep meat for a short time, but the chance of eating fresh meat and drinking fresh milk was very limited: there was no way to keep food from going bad. But in 1810 a French inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking- and-sealing technique of canning. And in the 1850’s an American named Gail Borden develoned a means of keeping milk fresh. Canned foods and condensed milk (炼乳)became more common during the 1860's, but supplies remained low because cans had to be made by hand. By 1880, however, inventors had developed modern machines that mass-produced cans from tinplate. Suddenly all kinds of food could be kept and bought at all times of the year.
Other inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to change their daily diets. Growing populations increased food demand and stimulated fruit and vegetable farmers to raise more produce. Railroad refrigerator cars made it possible to ship growers and packed meat fresh to faraway places without worrying they would go bad. Thus, by the 1890's northern city settlers could enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, for a month at most in the past, for up to six months of the year. Besides, increased use of iceboxes made it possible for families to store food which could easily go bad. An easy means of producing ice had been invented in the 1870's, and by 1900 the nation had more than two thousand ice plants, most of which made home deliveries. The icebox became common equipment in most homes and remained so until the refrigerator replaced it in the 1920's and 1930's. Almost everyone now has a variety of diet.
72. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Causes of food going bad.
B. Production of iceboxes.
C. Inventions that led to changes in food and drink.
D. Canned food.
73. The word “stimulated” can be replaced by "________".
A. protected B. encouraged
C. enabled D. persuaded
74. The writer suggested that in the 1920's and 1930's home deliveries of ice ___________.
A. reduced in number B. became very common
C. increased in cost D. took place all the year
75. Which of the following is supported by the passage?
A. Cans and iceboxes helped develop food supply.
B. Ice factories were developed by railroad refrigerator cars.
C. Most farmers in the United States raised fruits and vegetables.
D. People demanded home deliveries of variety of food and drink.

第一小题（情景作文）
One Possible Version:
Dear editor,
I'm writing to tell you about be changes in my hometown. In the past my hometown used to be a beautiful place. Trees grew thickly on all the hills around the village. In order to build houses and grow more crops, trees were cut but none were planted. As time went by, the whole forest was almost destroyed. Gradually, the green hills have changed into wasteland. As a result, sandstorms struck us now and then, from which we suffered a lot. Many of the people had to leave. So, I do hope all the people should realize the importance of caring about our environment. What's more, we should take care of the forests and plant more trees instead of cutting them down in order to make our life better.
Yours,
Li Hua
