（A）
After a 13-year ban on the sale of fireworks in Beijing, Kang Guoliang, 51, was able to start his old trade again yesterday.
As a salesman in Xinhui store in Dongcheng District, he is happy about the increasing number of buying fireworks wrapped in red paper - a color standing for happiness and good luck.
“Fireworks are available for the first time in town for more than a decade,” Kang said happily. “People will buy them.”
The store has 300 boxes of fireworks piled up and is open 24 hours at the moment. Residents are buying the fireworks and firecrackers for the upcoming Spring Festival, which falls on February 18.
Citywide, 2,116 registered stores and retailers, 585 in the centre and 1,600 on the outskirts are trading fireworks in the Chinese capital. Sales of fireworks within the Fifth Ring Road started yesterday and will last until March 4, Xinhua reported. Among the stores, 117 stores are permitted to operate 24 hours. About 600,000 boxes of firecrackers worth more than 100 million yuan have been carried to registered stores.
The Chinese capital began a ban in 1993 to reduce fireworks-related deaths and fires during the holiday season. Last September the ban was removed in response to residents’ fondness for fireworks when celebrating Spring Festival.
According to new rules, Beijing residents are allowed to set off fireworks within the Fifth Ring Road all day on Lunar New Year’s Eve and Lunar New Year’s day, from 7 a.m. to midnight every day from February 19 to March 4.
“Spring Festival without fireworks is not Spring Festival,” said Sheng Hefei, who was buying fireworks in the store. “It was fun to light the firecrackers when I was little,” he said. “The sound and view of fireworks make a real holiday.” However, not all residents welcome the return of firecrackers because of injuries, pollution and noise. “My child is scared of the sudden sound of firecrackers, and it is annoying to hear it all night long,” complained Lu Jun, a local resident.

People will soon cool their homes with power from the burning desert sun. Deserts are becoming hot spots for solar thermal (熱的) power in which futuristic troughs (低谷期) pay more attention to the sun's rays and create steam to run power-producing turbines (渦輪機) at power plants.
Tiny experimental plants built in the 1980s in California ran into problems when energy prices dropped. But as oil, natural gas and electricity costs soar, companies are racing to build commercial solar thermal plants that are the size of power plants.
Limits on emissions (釋放) of greenhouse gases from fossil fuels have also promoted the new technology. Utah-based International Automated Systems Inc. signed an agreement to build a $150 million, 100-megawatt power plant for Solar Renewable Energy in Nevada. And North Carolina-based Solargenix will break ground on a 64 MW, $100 million solar thermal plant called Nevada Solar One.
Currently, all the types of solar energy provide only about 1 percent of U. S. power. One problem is price. Solar thermal at present costs about 12 to 15 cents per kilowatt hour, Westerholt said, compared with natural gas power which costs 10 cents per KWH. But as production grows, solar companies expect costs to slip to 8 cents per KHW in five years.
Solar thermal is expensive compared with wind energy and fuels. But it does have advantages. Power from the desert sun is more reliable than wind power during the day. And unlike fuels, it has no greenhouse gases.
And solar thermal is growing globally. A white paper says that by 2040 solar power could satisfy more than 5 percent of the world's electricity demand. The best places for it are Australia, the United States, Spain, the Middle East and North Africa, which could export power from the sun to Europe on high-tech power lines.
40. How many factors does the passage mention which affect the development of solar thermal power?
A. One. B. Two.
C. Three. D. Four.
41. The underlined word “soar” ( in Paragraph 2 ) means ________.
A. dropped B. disappeared
C. limited D. increased
42. The passage mentioned Solargenix in order to show that _________.
A. limits on greenhouse gases can encourage new technologies
B. it will need lots of money to build Solargenix
C. Solargenix was a newly-built plant
D. the solar thermal power has its own promising future
43. According to the passage, which of the following energy supplies is more reliable and renewable during the day?
A. Wind. B. Oil.
C. The sun. D. Coal.
44. Which of the following will be the best title for the passage?
A. The Solar Thermal Power Age Is Coming.
B. More Measures Should Be Made for Solar Development.
C. Advantages for the Solar Thermal Power.
D. Solar Thermal Is Growing Globally.

Many people believe the glare from snow causes snow blindness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snow blindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow light”.
The United States army has now determined that glare from snow does not cause snow blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a man’s eyes often find nothing to focus on in a broad space of snow-covered without-grass land. So his gaze continually moves and jumps back and forth over the entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding something, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become tired and the eye muscles ache. Nature makes up for this discomfort by producing more and more fluid (液體) which covers the eyeball. The fluid covers the eyeball in increasing quantity until it makes eyes difficult to see clearly, and the result is total, even though for a short time, snow blindness.
Experiments lead the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts (偵察員) ahead of the troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross completely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on which they can focus too. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching the snow-blanketed landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the men can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snow-blind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a continuous white land is overcome.
40. To prevent snow blindness caused by the strong light from snow, wearing glasses or not _________.
A. depends on whether the snow is white enough
B. makes no difference
C. makes much difference
D. depends on whether the snow is thick
41. When the eyes are tired, tears flow out __________.
A. to clear the vision
B. to make the eyes stop searching
C. to make the vision unclear
D. to produce more and more liquid
42. Snow blindness can be prevented by ___________
A. moving one’s gaze back and forth
B. walking ahead and keeping looking around
C. making up for the discomfort of one’s eyes
D. providing the eyes with something to focus on
43. What is the probable meaning of the underlined part “Their gaze is arrested.”?
A. They get something to look at.
B. They can only look at one spot.
C. Their eyes are clear.
D. They can’t see freely.

B篇主要是講了隨著油價的上升和對于溫室氣體的排放的限制，這不斷激勵著對于太陽能這一新技術的開發。
40．B。文章主要是提到了油價、天然氣價格提高(成本提高)和對于溫室氣體的排放量的限制。因此，總共是兩個原因。
41．D。由第二段第一、二句話可知，當油氣的價格升高時，物價也就上升，從而成本提高，人們就會轉向太陽能等可再利用的能源。反而，就會充分利用油氣能源。
42．A。由文章第三段可知，下面所舉的兩個例子是為了闡述本段第一句話的觀點的。
43．C。由文章的第五段可知。
44．A。本文主要是講了隨著油價的上升和對于溫室氣體的排放的限制，這不斷激勵著對于太陽能這一新技術的開發。
36．D。計算過程為：(164,500×8)÷ (0093×1,003)≈14.150。
37．A。依據是“This Garden style home is equipped with ...”，葡萄藤爬滿房子正面，到了夏天當然看上去是綠油油的。
38．A。A項錯在車庫里的小房間是已經存在的：B項的依據是該房子的宅基地其實是供兩所房子用的（“Lot Size：2”/“double sized lot”），當然擴建空間很足；C項的依據是花園用的是自動噴灌系統；D項的洗碗機和地毯是作為“房屋特色”列入廣告中的，自然是屬于房屋的一部分。
39．B。結合生活常識應該能夠判斷“access”的意思是“通道，人口”,“wheelchair access”即是指專供殘疾人使用的“無障礙通道”，如醫院和公共場所所鋪設的無臺階、斜坡型、可供輪椅出入的通道。
40．B。第一段第二句“Yet, with dark glasses or not…”提到戴不戴眼鏡都會產生“雪盲”的癥狀，如頭疼，流淚甚至雪盲。
41．C。第二段結尾部分“... makes eyes difficult to see clearly ...”說此時淚水流出來充滿眼眶，眼睛看不清，導致雪盲。
42．D。第三段提到的偵察兵的做法告訴我們，雪盲的產生是因為在雪地里眼睛找不到具體目標，由于尋找不到看的物體才產生雪盲。人們就將灌木上的雪去掉，扔一些深色物體，其目的是D項所言內容。
43．A。畫線句子后面說“眼睛盯著灌木，找到東西可看”，故選A。arrest意為“逮捕”、“抑制”。
One possible version:
As time goes on, both city people and country people have a lot of free time. They have different ways to spend their weekends.
After a stressful week of hard work, city people would like to go to the country and return to nature. They go fishing or traveling into the country while some go hiking into the country. Some people go to the country by car or by bike while others go on foot. They went to relax themselves, breathe fresh air and do exercise in the open air.
On the other hand, country people will drive into cities for shopping. They will see films or go to concerts on weekends. Country people want to perceive modern city life in this way.
