One of the goals of American education officials is to have all public schools connected to the Internet computer system and have computer for all students .Government studies show that in 1994 only thirty-five percent of American public schools were connected to the Internet .Last year, that number reached eighty-nine percent.
Virginia Polytechnic Institute of State University is a large university in the southern state of Virginia. Officials at Virginia Tech say computers are very important to a student’s education. All students at Virginia Tech have been required to have a computer since 1998.
Each student’s living area at Virginia Tech has the necessary wires to link a computer to the Internet .The students can send and receive electronic mail ,use the World Wide Web part of the Internet and link with other universities ,all without leaving their room .They can also use their computers to send electronics copies of their schoolwork to their teachers .And they can search for books in the school’s huge library.
Most major American universities and colleges strongly urge or require new students to have a computer .Most colleges and universities also have large rooms where students can use computers for class work.

It was a day to celebrate if your family had put most of its money in a bank .You will get more money back because of a recent rise in interest rates(利率).
On October 29, for the first time in nine years, the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) raised interest rates. The rate for one-year renminbi deposits(存款)was increased from 1.98 per cent to 2.25 per cent .And the rate for one-year renminbi loans(代款)went up from 5.31 per cent to 5.58 per cent .Longer term rates saw higher increases.
So what are interest rates ?Banks offer some money to encourage people to keep their savings in a savings account(储蓄帐户),and ask more money in return if you borrow money from them .The percentages of the extra money are the interest rates.
If your parents have borrowed money from banks to pay for houses or cars ,the interest rates rise was not good news.
An increase in the interest rates on a loan means the borrower will need to repay more to the bank . For example ,a person who borrowed ,10,000 yuan from the bank had to return 10,531 yuan before the interest rise .But after the interest rates are increased ,he has to pay extra 27 yuan per year.
The rise came following a great demand for the cooling of the over-heating Chinese economy .For several years ,pushed by a huge investment and construction projects ,the country has had the fastest economic growth in the world .But this can be damaging just as it is when a person grows too fast and can no longer fit their clothes .It is hoped that with a higher interest rate people will act more cautiously and take less risks when borrowing money .
“The rate rise will help the economy to cool down .It will reduce investment in unnecessary industrial and construction projects .” said Su Ning , deputy governor(副行长)of the PBOC.
63.If we deposit 1000 RMB in the bank for one year ,how much can we get after October 29?
(The tax rate on interest rates is 20%.)
A.21.6. B.13.68. C.15.84. D.18.
64.What is the purpose of the rise in the interest rates?
A.To attract greater investment.
B.To make people earn more money.
C.To carry out construction projects.
D.To cool down the over-heating Chinese economy .
65.By saying “this can be damaging just as it is when a person grows too fast and can no longer fit their clothes” the writer .
A.warns that if the economy grows too rapidly ,it will cause trouble
B.warns us that industry will suffer a loss
C.advises us to buy bigger clothes when we are young
D.advises us not to grow too fast
66.Which of the following is NOT a result of the increase in the interest rates on a loan?
A.People will make wiser investments.
B.People will need to repay more to the bank.
C.People will borrow more money to invest in their business.
D.People will be careful of taking money from banks to expand their business.

When nature is left alone ,a balance is reached among the animals and plants living in one area .But when man starts his work in nature ,the balance is likely to be destroyed .He grows a crop and takes it away to eat ;then there are no dead leaves to fall on the ground ,holding water while it sinks into the surface , or decaying(腐烂)and adding humus(腐殖质)to the soil. Unless a farmer acts with knowledge and skill ,he is therefore most likely to make the land poorer. To take the place of the useful matter in the crops that he removes ,he uses some kind of fertilizer(肥料). Chemical fertilizers are of great help , but the waste products of animals and decaying remains of plants should also be put on the land .In some places ,it is a habit to burn waste material lying about ,but such burning destroys the useful matter in the dead plants. Although the ashes that are left are valuable when put on the land, a better practice is to bury the waste so that it decays and increases the humus in the soil.
In the past ,when the world population was much lower than it is now ,a man had little difficulty in ordinary times in growing the food that was needed .When a field had been used some years and had become tired ,the farmer could move to another place. The tired land then slowly recovered. Gradually grasses and other plants would appear on it and its productive power would slowly return to normal through their decay .But nature ,left alone , would take a long time to bring back the land to its former state ;the length of time required would depend on local conditions ,but it might well be ten years.
It is a bad practice to grow the same crop in a field year after year .If the crop is changed ,the land will suffer less because it is treated and used in a different way .Different plants have different effects on the soil .Therefore , a change of crop will do less harm than the growing of the same crop year after year and a regular change to grass will do good to the soil .Much will therefore be gained if different crops are grown one after another ,a method known as the rotation(轮作)of crops .
67.According to the passage ,the land will become poorer
A.if all the dead leaves are cleared away
B.if the humus is increased after the harvest
C.if dead leaves decay in the soil by themselves
D.if waste plant material lying about is buried
68.We can learn from the passage that the tired land has gradually recovered
A.when grasses and other plants appear again
B.when the treatment is given by nature alone
C.after new grasses and other plants have decayed again
D.after nature has been left alone for several months
69.A modern farmer can hardly move to another place as he did before because ?
A.the productive power of a new field isn’t higher than that of an old one
B.there are few free fields left for him to do farming
C.it takes a farmer more than ten years to start farming in a new field
D.there will be too many grasses in a new field to grow crops
70.It is most likely that the author will go on to in the paragraph following the passage above.
A.introduce other methods of planting crops
B.deal with how to prevent land getting tired
C.start another topic of how to make use of land
D.further explain what the rotation of crops is

Listening to music while you drive can improve your speed and ability to get away from accidents ,according to Australian psychologists(心理学家). But turning your car radio up to full volume could probably make you end up in an accident .The performance of difficult tasks can be affected if people are subjected to loud noise .The experience of pulling up at traffic lights alongside cars with loud music made some psychologists in the University of Sydney look into whether loud music has something to do with driving.
The psychologists invited 60 men and women aged between 20 and 28 as subjects and tested them on almost the same driving tasks under three noise conditions: silence ,rock music played at a gentle 55 decibels(分贝),and the same music at 85 decibels.
For 10 minutes the subjects sat in front of a screen operating a simple machine like a car .They had to track a moving disk on screen ,respond to traffic signals changing color, and brake(刹车)in response to arrows that appeared without warning.
On the tracking task ,there was no difference in performance under the three noise conditions .But under both the loud and quiet music conditions ,the performers “braked” at a red light about 50 milliseconds sooner than they did when there was no rock music at all .That could mean a reduction in braking distance of a couple of meters actually ,the difference between life and death for a pedestrian(行人).
When it came to the arrows that appeared across the visual field ,the psychologists found that when the music was quiet ,people responded faster to objects in their central field of sight by about 50 milliseconds .For the people listening at 85 decibels ,response times dropped by a further 50 milliseconds—a whole tenth of second faster than those “driving” with no music.
“But there’s a trade-off,” the psychologists told the European Congress of Psychology. “They lose the ability to look around the whole situation effectively.” In responding to objects that suddenly appeared ,people subjected to 85—decibel rock music were around 100 milliseconds slower than both the other groups . Since some accident—such as children running into the road—take place without any notice ,drivers listening to loud music must be less safe as a result.
71.Which of the following is the best way to make driving safer?
A.Loud music . B.Quiet music.
C.Silence. D.Heavy metal music.
72.What does the phrase “the pulling up” in paragraph two mean?
A.Stopping. B.Giving somebody a lift.
C.Putting up with. D.Driving.
73.Where did the researchers do the experiment?
A.At crossroads.
B.At a police traffic station.
C.In a crowed street.
D.Under the same conditions as those of the streets.
74.Which of the following didn’t help the performers to “brake” sooner at red lights?
A.Silence. B.Loud music.
C.Quiet music. D.Rock music.
75.Which of the following is NOT true of loud music?
A.It helped the performers to brake sooner at red lights.
B.It helped the performers to be more careful.
C.It helped the performers to respond faster to objects stepping in the way.
D.It can do more good than harm to drivers.

The students of our school had a discussion about whether listening test in the National Matriculation English Test should be kept or canceled .Some students think that listening test should not be canceled. They insist listening is among the four basic skills .We therefore can not ignore it .Besides ,listening is one of the important channels for us to get information from the outside world. So it should be strengthened today when international cooperation is becoming more and more frequent .But others don’t agree .They think not everyone has to communicate with foreigners in the future .Moreover ,listening test is unfair to the students in the areas where radio signals cannot be picked up effectively .And for certain reasons ,there is a big difference in teachers and equipment between the countryside and the cit
