40.根据以下内容，回答下列各题。   As you are students of English，its very possible that you’ll be interested in England．
　　Thats where the language was first spoken．But England is often called by other nalTles．This often Confuses people．and l wonder if you know what these natnes mean．So,now Iwould like to tell you about mis matter of names．I believe that you．have heard people use thenames England，Britain or Great Britain．Lets see what each of these names means．
　　If you look at a map of Europe．you’11 see a group of islands one larger island off thenorthwest coast，one smaller and many tiny ones．These make up what is called the British Isles(不列颠群岛)．The largest island of the British Isles is Britain．It is also called Great Brit—ain．The smaller island is keland(爱尔兰)．
　　Britain  is divided into three parts：Scotland，Wales and England．But sometimes the Word“England”is used instead of“Britain”．Why so?
　　In ancient times，what is Britain now used to be three different countries，People in these different countries spoke different language．Over many years the three countries became one．England is the largest and richest of the three and it has the most people．So the English people take it for granted that their own name stands for the whole island．
　　There’s another thing that confuses people：sometimes you may hear people say＂the Untied Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland＂。That is official name of the country．Northern Ireland is only one sixth of the island of Ireland．The rest of the island is an independent state ,called the Republic of Ireland．So we have the names of"England＂，"Britain"， "Great Britain"，and"the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"． Now do you know what each of them means?

44.根据以上内容，回答下列各题。   Space is a dangerous place，not only because of meteors but also because of rays from the sun and other stars．The atmosphere again acts as our protective blanket on earth．Light gets through，and this is essential for plants to make the food which we eat．Heat，too，makes our environment endurable．Various kinds of rays come through the air from outer space，but enormous quantities of radiation：from the sun are screened off．As soon as men leave the atmosphere they are exposed to this radiation but their spacesuits or the walls of their spacecraft。if they are inside，do prevent a lot of radiation damage．
　　Radiation is the greatest known danger to explorers in space．The unit of radiation is called “rem”．Scientists have reason to think that a man can put up with far more radiation than 0.1ream without being damaged；the figure of 60 reins has been agreed on．The  trouble is that it isextremely difficult to be sure about radiation damage--a  person may feel perfectly well，but theCells of his or her sex organs may be damaged，and this will not be discovered until the birth ofdeformed(畸形的)children or even  grandchildren．Missions of the Apollo flights have had tocross belts of high radiation and，during the outward and return joumeys，the Apollo crew ac—cumulated a large amount of reams．So far，no dangerous amounts of radiation have been repor-ted，but the Apollo missions have been quite short．We simply do not know yet how men aregoing to get on when they spend weeks and months outside the protection of the atmosphere，working in a space laboratory．Drugs might help to decrease the damage done by radiation，butno really effective ones have been found so far．

According to the first paragraph，the atmosphere is essential to man in that_________．

48.根据以下内容，回答下列各题。   The agricultural revolution in the nineteenth century involved two things：the invention oflabor-saving machinery and the development of scientific agriculture．Labor．saving machinerynaturally appeared first where labor was SCarCe．“In Europe”，said Thomas Jefferson，“the ob．ject is to make the most of their land，labor being abundant；here it is to make the most of ourlabor，land being abundant．”It Was in America，therefore，that the great advances in nine-teenth-century agricultural machinery first came．At the opening of the century，with the excep-tion of a crude plow，farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural imple-ments(农具)on their backs；by 1860，most of the machinery in use today had been designedin an early form．The most important of the early inventions was the iron plow．As early as 1790 Charles Newbold of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a cast-iron plow and spent hisentire fortune in introducing his  invention．The farmers，however，would have none of it，clai-ming that the iron poisoned the soil and made the weeds grow．Nevertheless，many people devot-ed their attention to the plow，until in 1869 James Oliver of South Bend，Indiana，turned out thefirst chilled—steel(冷淬钢)plow．

What is the main topic of the passage?

A.The need for agricultural  advances to help feed a growing population．
B.The development of safer  machines demanded by the labor movement．
C.Machinery that contributed  to the agricultural revolution．
D.New Jersey as a leader in  the agricultural revolution．

C.Life on the farm was extremely difficult．
D.New tools were designed to the portable．

51. Which of the following can be inferred from what Thomas Jefferson said?

A.Europe Was changing more quickly than America．
B.Europe had greater need of farm machinery than America did．
C.America was finally running out of good farmland．

52.根据以下内容，回答下列各题。  Even plants can run a fever，especially when they’re under attack by insects or disease．But unlike humans，plants Can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away—straightup．A decade ago，adapting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for militarypurposes and other satellites，physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick  way to take thetemperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress．The goal was to let farmers pre-cisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field，which in-variably includes plants that don’t have pest(害虫)problems．
　Even better．Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems be-fore they became visible to the eye．Mounted on a plane flown at 3，000 feet at night，an infra-red scanner measured the heat emitted by crops．The data were transformed into a color-codemap showing where plants were running“fevers”．Farmers could then spot-spray，using 50 to70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would．
　　The bad news is that Paleys company closed down in 1984，after only three years．Farm,ers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find．But with the　renewedconcem about pesticides on produce，and refinements in infrared scanning，Paley hopes to getback into operation．Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works．“This techniquecan be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States"，says George Oerther ofTexas A&M．Ray Jackson，who recently retired from the Department of Agricuhrue，thinks re-mote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade．But only if Paley findsthe financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago．

In order to apply pesticide spraying  precisely，we call use infrared scanning to _________.

A.locate the problem areas
B.drew a color-coded map
C.measure the size of the  affected area
D.estimate the damage to the  crops

53.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by_________．

A.transforming poisoned rain
B.consuhing infrared  scanning experts
C.resorting to spot-spraying
D.detecting crop problems at  an early date

54.Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are_________

A.sprayed with pesticides
B.in pour physical condition
C.facing an infrared scanner
D.exposed to excessive sun  rays

55.The application of infrared scanning technolgy to agriculture met with some difficul-ties due to_________．

A.the lack of official  support
B.its hieagh cost
C.it’s failure to help  increase production
D.the lack of financial support
