PASSAGE 1
A useful definition of an air pollutant is a compound added directly or
indirectly by humans to the atmosphere in such quantities as to affect humans,
animals, vegetation, or materials adversely. Air pollution requires a very flexible
definition that permits continuous change; When the first air pollution laws were
established in England in the fourteenth century, air pollutants were limited to
compounds that could be seen or smelled-a far cry from the extensive list of
harmful substances known today. As technology has developed and knowledge
of the health aspects o f various chemicals has increased, the list o f air pollutants
has lengthened. In the future, even water vapor might be considered an air
pollutant under certain conditions.
Many o f the more important air pollutants, such as sulfur oxides, carbon
monoxide, and nitrogen oxides, are found in nature. As the Earth developed, the
concentrations o f these pollutants were altered by various chemical reactions;
they became components in biogeochemical cycles, These serve as an air
purification scheme by allowing the compounds to move from the air to the
water or soil. On a global basis, natures output of these compounds dwarfs that
resulting from human activities. However, human production usually occurs in a
localized area, such as a city.
In this localized region, human output may be dominant and may temporarily
overload the natural purification scheme of the cycles. The result is an increased
concentration o f noxious chemicals in the air. The concentrations at which the
adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrations that the. pollutants
would have in the absence o f human activities. The actual concentration need not
be large for a substance to be a pollutant: in fact the numerical value tells us little
until we know how much o f an increase this represents over the concentration
that would occur naturally in the area. For example, sulfur dioxide has
detectable health effects at 0.08 parts per million (ppm), which is about 400
times its natural level. Carbon monoxide, however, has a natural level o f 0.1
ppm and is not usually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm.

41. W hat does the passage mainly discuss?


A. The economic impact o f air pollution.
B. What constitutes an air pollutant.

34
c . How much harm air pollutants can cause.

B. m ost air pollutants today can be seen or smelled
c . the definition o f air pollution will continue to change
D. a substance becomes an air pollutant only in'cities
44. The word “a /te m f’ is closest in meaning to”_______.
A. eliminated B. caused c . slowed D. changed
45. Natural pollutants can play an important role in controlling air pollution
for which o f the following reasons?
A. They function as part of a purification process.
B. They occur in greater quantities than other pollutants.
c . They are less harmful to living beirịgs than are other pollutants.
D. They have existed since the Earth developed.
46. According to the passage, which o f the following is true about human
generated air pollution in localized regions?

PASSAGE 2
In the West, cartoons are used chiefly to make people laugh. The important
feature o f all these cartoons is the joke and the element o f surprise which is
contained. Even though it is very funny, a good cartoon is always based on close
observation of a particular feature o f life and usually has a serious purpose.
Cartoons in the West have been associated with political and social matters,
for many years. In wartime, for example, they proved to be an excellent way of
spreading propaganda. Nowadays cartoons are often used to make short; sharp
comments on politics and governments as well as on a variety o f social matters.
In this way, the modern cartoon has become a very powerful force in influencing
people in Europe and the. United States.
Unlike most American and European cartoons, however, many Chinese
cartoon drawings in the past have also attempted to educate people, especially
those who could not read and write. Such cartoons about the lives and sayings of
great men in China have proved extremely useful in bringing education to
illiterate and semi-literate people throughout China. Confucius, Mencius and
Laozi have all appeared in very interesting stories presented in the form of
cartoons. The cartoons themselves have thus served to illustrate the teachings of
the Chinese sages in a very attractive way.
In this sense, many Chinese cartoons are different from Western cartoons in
so far as they do not depend chiefly on telling jokes. Often, there is nothing to
laugh at when you see Chinese cartoons. This is not their primary aim. In
addition to commenting on serious political and social matters, Chinese cartoons
have aimed at spreading the traditional Chinese thoughts and culture as widely
as possible among the people.
Today, however, Chinese cartoons have an added part to play in spreading
knowledge. They offer a very attractive and useful way of. reaching people
throughout the world, regardless of the particular country in which they live.
Thus, through cartoons, the thoughts and teachings o f the old Chinese
philosophers and sages can now reach people who live in such countries as
Britain, France, America, Japan, Malaysia or Australia and who are unfamiliar
with the Chinese culture.
Until recently, the transfer of knowledge and culture has been overwhelmingly
from the West to the East and not vice versa. By means of cartoons, however,
publishing companies in Taiwan, Hong Kong and Singapore arc now having
success in correcting this imbalance between the East and the West.
Cartoons can overcome language barriers in all foreign countries. The vast
increase in the popularity o f these cartoons serves to illustrate the truth of
Confucius’s famous saying “One picture is worth a thousand words.”
Question 51: Which of the following clearly characterizes Western cartoons?
A. Enjoyment, liveliness, and carefulness.
B. Originality, freshness, and astonishment.
c . Seriousness, propaganda, and attractiveness.
D. Humour, unexpectedness, and criticism.
36
Question 52: Chinese cartoons have been useful as an important means
of
A. political propaganda in wartime B. amusing people ail the time
c . educating ordinary people D. spreading Western ideas
Question 53: The major differences between Chinese cartoons and Western
cartoons come from th eir______ .
A. styles B. values c . purposes D. nationalities
Question 54: The pronoun “this” in paragraph 4/mostly refers t o ______ .
A. an educational purpose B. a piece of art
'C. a funny element D. a propaganda campaign
Question 55: The passage is intended to present .
A. an opinion about how cartoons entertain people
B. án outline o f Western cartoons and Chinese cartoons
c . a description o f cartoons o f all kinds the world over
D. a contrast between Western cartoons and Chinese cartoons
Question 56: W hich o f the following could be the best title for the passage?
A. A Very Powerful Force in Influencing People
B. Chinese Cartoons and Western Cartoons
c . An Excellent Way of Spreading Propaganda
D. Cartoons as a Way o f Educating People
Question 57: In general, Chinese cartoons are now aiming at .
A. disseminating traditional practices in China and throughout the world
B. spreading the Chinese ideas and cultural values throughout the world
c . bringing education to illiterate and semi-literate people in the world
D. illustrating the truth o f Chinese great men’s famous sayings
Question 58: The word “imbalance” in paragraph 6 refers to ______.
A. the discrimination between the West culture and the East culture
B. the influence o f the East cartoons over the West cartoons
c . the mismatch between the East cartoons and the West cartoons
D. the dominant cultural influence o f the West over the East
Question 59: Which o f the following is most likely the traditional subject of
Chinese cartoons?
A. Jokes and other kinds of humour in political and social matters.
B. The philosophies and sayings of ancient Chinese thinkers,
c . The illiterate and semi-literate people throughout China.
D. The stories and features o f the lives o f great men the world over.
Question 60: According to the passage, which o f the following is true?
A. Cartoons will replace other forms o f writing.
