　　Passage 1

　　Questions 11-15 are based on the following passage.

　　Scientists claim that air pollution causes a decline in the world's average air temperature. In order to prove that theory, ecologists have turned to historical data in relation to especially huge volcanic eruptions. They suspect that volcanoes affect weather change that are similar to air pollution.

　　One source of information is the effect of the eruption of Tambura, a volcano in Sumbawa, the Dutch East Indian, in April 1815. The largest recorded volcanic eruption, Tambura threw 150 million tons of fine ash into the stratosphere(平流层). The ash from a volcano spreads worldwide in a few days and remains in the air for years. Its effect is to turn incoming solar radiation into space and thus cool the earth. For example, records of weather in England show that between April and November 1815, the average temperature had fallen 4.5. During the next twenty four months, England suffered one of the coldest periods of its history. Farmers' records from April 1815 to December 1818 indicate frost throughout the spring and summer and sharp decreases in crop and livestock markets. Since there was a time lag(滞后)of several years between cause and effect, by the time the world agricultural commodity community had deteriorated, no one realized the cause.

　　Ecologists today warn that we face a twofold menace. The ever present possibility of volcanic eruptions, such as that of Mr. St. Helens in Washington, added to man's pollution of the atmosphere with oil, gas, coal, and other polluting substances, may bring us increasingly colder weather.

　　11. It is believed that the earth gets colder when ________.

　　A. volcanoes erupt

　　B. the air is polluted by modern man

　　C. the rays of the sun are turned into space

　　D. all of the above

　　12. The effects of Tambura 's eruption were ________.

　　A. felt mainly in the Dutch East Indian

　　B. of several day's duration worldwide

　　C. evidence of pollution's cooling the earth

　　D. immediately evident to the world's scientists

　　13. The cause of cold weather in England from 1815 to 1818 was ________.

　　A. decreased crop and livestock production

　　B. volcanic ash in the atmosphere

　　C. pollution caused by the Industrial Revolution

　　D. its proximity to the North sea

　　14. No one realized the cause of the deterioration of the world agricultural commodity market because ________.

　　A. there was a long delay between cause and effect

　　B. the weather is beyond our comprehension

　　C. weather forecasts were inaccurate

　　D. ecologists didn't exist until modern times

　　15. If, as some scientists predict, the world ends in ice, what might be the cause?

　　A. Modern man's pollution of the air.

　　B. Volcanic eruptions.

　　C. Obliteration (破坏) of solar radiation.

　　D. All of the above.

　　Passage 2

　　Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage.

　　It is difficult to estimate the number of youngsters involved in home schooling, where children are not sent to school and receive their formal education from one or both parents. Legislation and court decisions have make it legally possible in most states for parents to educate their children at home, and each year more people take advantage of that opportunity.

　　Supporters of home education claim that it is less expensive and far more efficient than mass public education. Moreover they quote several merits: relief of school overcrowding, added curricular and pedagogical (课程和教学法) alternatives, strengthened family relationships, lower dropout rates, increased motivation, higher standardized test scores, and reduced discipline problems. Supporters of home schooling also believe that it provides the parents with the opportunity to reinforce their moral values through education.

　　Critics of home schooling movement claim that it creates as many problems as it solves. They acknowledge that, in a few cases, home schooling offers educational opportunities superior to those found in most public schools, but few parents can provide such educational advantages. Some parents who withdraw their children from the schools in favor of home schooling have an inadequate educational background and insufficient formal training to provide a satisfactory education for their children. Typically, parents have fewer, not more technological resources available than do schools. However, the relatively inexpensive computer technology that is readily available today is causing some to challenge the notion that home schooling is in any way not so good as more highly structured classroom education.

　　Finally, a sociological (社会学) concern is the restricted social interaction experienced by children who are educated at home. Technology will never replace the pupil-teacher relationship. Also, while relationships with parents and brothers and sisters may be improved, children taught at home may develop a distorted (歪曲的) view of society.

　　16. The main idea of the passage is that .

　　A. more and more parents are in favor of home schooling

　　B. home schooling is superior to school education because it has been legally approved

　　C. though home schooling has its advantages, it creates as many new problems at the same time

　　D. school education is no doubt better than home education

　　17. Those who support home schooling think that .

　　A. it’s less expensive and more efficient apart from other merits

　　B. it has added curricular and pedagogical alternatives

　　C. it will cause fewer discipline problems

　　D. it’s more important to reinforce moral values

　　18. Critics believe that .

　　A. few parents can afford computers and technology when providing home education

　　B. few parents are qualified enough to provide a satisfactory home education

　　C. school teachers are better than parents

　　D. classroom environment can provide most satisfactory education

　　19. According to the author, home schooling cannot help children .

　　A. acquire social knowledge

　　C. build up pupil-teacher relationship

　　D. develop a right view of society
