We moved back home in August.With December coming,there?s still reconstruction work to be done,so it?s difficult to prepare for Christmas.But I can?t wait—I?m going to throw a party for our friends in the village to say thanks for their support.This year,I won?t need any gifts—living away from home for months has made me realize how little we actually need or miss all our possessions.Although we are replacing things,there?s really no rush—we have our home back,and that?s the main thing.

Passage Three

　　There are two factors which determine an individual?s intelligence.The first is the sort of brain he is born with.Human brains differ considerably,some being more capable than others.But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with,an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is reared.If an individual is handicapped environmentally,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.

　　The importance of environment in determining an individual?s intelligence can be demonstrated by the case of the identical twins,Peter and Mark Being identical,the twins had identical brains at birth,and their growth processes were the same.When the twins were three months old,their parents died,and they were placed in separate foster homes.Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities.Mark was reared in the home of well?to?do parents who had been to college.He was read to as a child,sent to good schools,and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens,when they were given tests to measure their intelligence.Mark?s I.Q.was 125,twenty?five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother.Given equal opportunities,the twins,having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.

　　()12.According to the passage,the average I.Q.is .

　　A.85B.100

　　C.110D.125

　　()13.The case of the twins appears to support the conclusion that .

　　A.individual with identical brains seldom test at same level

　　B.an individual?s intelligence is determined only by his environment

　　C.lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligence

　　D.changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain

　　()14.This passage suggests that an individual?s I.Q..

　　A.can be predicted at birth

　　B.stays the same throughout his life

　　C.can be increased by education

　　D.is determined by his childhood

Passage Four

　　Sustainable development is applied to just about everything from energy to clean water and economic growth,and as a result it has become difficult to question either the basic assumptions behind it or the way the concept is put to use.This is especially true in agriculture,where sustainable development is often taken as the sole measure of progress without a proper appreciation of historical and cultural perspectives.

　　To start with,it is important to remember that the nature of agriculture has changed markedly throughout history,and will continue to do so.Medieval agriculture in northern Europe fed,clothed and sheltered a predominantly rural society with a much lower population density than it is today.It had minimal effect on biodiversity,and any pollution it caused was typically localized.In terms of energy use and the nutrients captured in the product it was relatively inefficient.

　　Contrast this with farming since the start of the industrial revolution.Competition from overseas led farmers to specialize and increase yields.Throughout this period food became cheaper,safer and more reliable.However,these changes have also led to habitat loss.

　　What?s more,demand for animal products in developing countries is growing so fast that meeting it will require an extra 300 million tons of grain a year by 2050.Yet the growth of cities and industry is reducing the amount of water available for agriculture in many regions.

　　All this means that agriculture in the 21st century will have to be very different from how it was in the 20th.This will require radical thinking.For example,we need to move away from the idea that traditional practices are inevitably more sustainable than new ones.We also need to abandon the notion that agriculture can be “zero impact”.The key will be to abandon the rather simple and static measures of sustainability,which centre on the need to maintain production without increasing damage.Instead we need a more dynamic interpretation,one that looks at the pros and cons of all the various way land is used.There are many different agricultural performances besides food yield: energy use,environmental costs,water purity,carbon footprint and biodiversity.It is clear,for example,that the carbon of transporting tomatoes from Spain to the UK is less than that of producing them in the UK with additional heating and lighting.But we do not know whether lower carbon footprints will always be better for biodiversity.What is crucial is recognizing that sustainable agriculture is not just about sustainable food production.

　　()15.How do people often measure progress in agriculture?

　　A.By its productivity.

　　B.By its sustainability.

　　C.By its impact on the environment.

　　D.By its contribution to economic growth.

　　()16.Specialization and the effort to increase yields have resulted in.

　　A.localized pollution

　　B.the shrinking of farmland

　　C.competition from overseas

　　D.the decrease of biodiversity

　　()17.What does the author think of traditional farming practices?

　　A.They have remained the same over the centuries.

　　B.They have not kept pace with population growth.

　　C.They are not necessarily sustainable.

　　D.They are environmentally friendly.

　　()18.What will agriculture be like in the 21st century?

　　A.It will go through radical changes.

　　B.It will supply more animal products.

　　C.It will abandon traditional farming practices.

　　D.It will cause zero damage to the environment.

　　()19.What is the author?s purpose in writing this passage?

　　A.To remind people of the need of sustainable development.

　　B.To suggest ways of ensuring sustainable food production.

　　C.To advance new criteria for measuring farming progress.

　　D.To urge people to rethink what sustainable agriculture is.
