Medicine comes in many forms. In its liquid form, medicine affects the body very quickly. But the effects of liquid medicine arch' t usually long-lasting. This is why pills and capsules (胶囊) are also used.
The pills and capsules being sold today arch' t perfect, either. Pills dissolve in the stomach. The medicine in the pills is released when the pills dissolve. But often, the pills dissolve too quickly.
Scientists have been trying to develop a pill that can release medicine slowly over a long period of time. They have applied their knowledge of plants to produce the "osmotic (渗透的) pump pill".
The cell walls of plants are made of cellulose (纤维素). Cellulose is a very porous substance. Their holes are big enough to allow water through the cell walls. As water enters a cell, pressure builds up in the cell. The pressure pumps other substances out of the cell. These substances leave the cell through the cellulose wall. This slow, steady process is called osmosis.
The osmotic pump pill is coated with synthetic cellulose. Liquid medicine is contained in the pill. The holes in the cellulose coating of the pill are big enough to allow water in the pill. As water from the body enters the pill, pressure builds up in the pill. The medicine is then slowly pumped out of the pill.
The passage implies that the osmotic pump pill is better than other pills and capsules because______.
A．it releases medicine slowly over a long period of time
B．it helps to build pressure in the body
C．the medicine in the pill can affect the body quickly
D．the coating doesn't dissolve in the stomach

The U. S. economy is growing most slowly, the U. S. Federal Reserve said on
Wednesday in a report. Economic business activity in most districts is
34 reported to be generally good and expanding moderately, in according to a
35 survey of regional business conditions last week. But the survey found
36 labour-market tightness and, in a few of regions, rift tightness appears to be
37 broadly based. As a result, wage gains have been tended to outstrip price increases.
38 The survey will be ruled by Federal Reserve policy-makers when they will meet
39 next month to consider adjusting interest rates. It was based on with information
40 collected during the middle of last week. There is a growing belief that Federal
41 Reserve officials will raise up short-term interest rates at the meeting to slow
42 economic growth and prevent from any acceleration in inflation. Recent reports,
43 including for shrinking unemployment, expanding factory orders and continued
44 high levels of home sales, have caused many to ask question earlier beliefs
45 that the dynamic economy in the country will slow by itself in the near future.

Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.
The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To food a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities (便利设施) such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them.
One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of the government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.
A small population may mean ______.
A．higher productivity, but a lower average income
B．lower productivity, but a higher average income
C．lower productivity and a lower average income
D．higher productivity and a higher average income

Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gels answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on. For most of the time this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we arc running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.
Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page, others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.
There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a “process”conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are an advanced reader our ability to hold a process conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a content conversation. It is precisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.
According to the author, when will our reading become conscious？
A.When the readers expectations match with what is said in the text.
B.When the reader has trouble understanding what the author says.
C.When the reader asks tough questions and gets proper answers.
D.When the reader understands a text with no difficulties.
At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to_____.A.read a text slowly and carefully
B.read without thinking hard
C.interpret a text in their own way
D.focus on the meaning of words only
A “process” conversation has to do with____ .A.the application of reading strategies
B.matching our expectations with the meaning of a text
C.the development of our ability to check the details
D.determining the main idea of a text
According to the passage, it is of great importance for readers at a higher level to maintain a balance between_____.A.conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension
B.the reader's expectations and the meaning of a text
C.lower and higher levels of comprehension
D.interpreting and criticizing a text

It is curious to note how slowly the mechanism of the intellectual life improves. Contrast the ordinary library facilities of a middle-class English home with the inconveniences of the equipment of an Alexandrian writer, and one realizes the enormous waste of time, physical exertion, and attention that went on through all the centuries during which the library flourished.
Before the present writer lies half a dozen books, and there are good indices to them. He can pick up any one of these six books, refer quickly to a statement, verify a quotation, and go on writing. In contrast with the tedious unfolding of a rolled manuscript, close at hand are two encyclopedias, a dictionary, an atlas of the world, a biographical dictionary, and other books of reference.
However, there were no such resources in the world in 300 B.C. Alexandria had still to produce the first grammar and the first dictionary. The present writer writes a book in manuscript; then the book is typed out very accurately by a typist. It can then, with the utmost convenience, be read over, corrected amply, rearranged freely, retyped, and reconnected. The Alexandrian author had to dictate or recopy every word he wrote. Before he could mm back to what he had written previously, he had to dry his last words by waving them in the air or pouring sand over them; he had not even blotting-paper. Whatever an author wrote had to be recopied again and again before it could reach any considerable circle of readers, and every copyist introduced some new error. New books were dictated to a roomful of copyists, and so issued in a first edition of some hundreds at least. Whenever a need for maps or diagrams arose, there were fresh difficulties. Such a science as anatomy, for example, depending upon accurate drawing, must have been enormously hampered by the natural limitations of the copyist. The transmission of geographical fact again must have been almost incredibly tedious.
The best title for this passage might be
A．The Difficulties of Alexandrian Writers.
B．The Advance of Writing and Publishing Since Alexandrian Time.
C．The Inadequacies of Ancient and Modern Times.
D．Writing and Publishing.
