You will graduate soon, and are eager to find a job in the Southern area of China. Please write a letter to one of your southern friends to inquire some information, about 100 words.
The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet is heading towards the Earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two fragments will probably hit the southern part of the Earth. The news has caused panic.
On 17 July, a fragment four kilometers wide enters the Earth's atmosphere with a huge explosion. About half of the fragment is destroyed. But the major part survives and hits the South Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and an enormous wave is created and spreads. The wall of water rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometres an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned. The wave moves into the Indian Ocean and heads towards Asia. Millions of people are already dead in the southern part of the Earth, but the north won't escape for long. Tons of broken pieces are thrown into the atmosphere by the explosions. As the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later civilization has collapsed. No more than 10 million people have survived.
Could it really happen？ In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the Earth. The dinosaurs(恐龙) were on the Earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the Earth was hit by a space fragment. The dinosaurs couldn't survive in the cold climate that followed and they became extinct. Will we meet the same end？
Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the author's description of the disaster in 2094？
A．The whole world becomes extremely cold.
B．All the coastal cities in Africa are destroyed.
C．The whole mankind becomes extinct.
D．The visit of the comet results in wars.
听力原文： The climate of the west coast is the most moderate in Canada. Summers are cool and fairly dry and winters are mild, cloudy and wet. Even in mid-winter, average temperatures are usually above freezing.
The central plain from the Rocky Mountains to Great Lakes is characterized by cold winters, short but hot summers, and light snow and rain. Tile large water-surfaces of Central and Eastern Canada produce considerable modification in the climate. Southern Ontario and Quebec experience cold, damp winters and hot, humid summers.
Most of Atlantic Canada has a humid climate owing to its maritime character. Nevertheless, it experiences weather systems arriving from the dry, continental interior as well as from the sea. The combined influence of these systems creates some of the most variable day-to-day weather conditions to be encountered anywhere in Canada.
The north-central part of Canada is usually snow-covered for more than half of the year, with a frost-free period of barely two months. Rain is relatively light. Further north, on the islands along the Arctic coast and round Hudson Bay, the land. is always frozen. Average temperatures stay above freezing for only a few weeks of the year. The Arctic Islands and the northern border of the mainland do not have a summer season of the kind known in Southern Canada.

The warning came in a new W. H.O. report released on April 7th--World Health Day. The report says the health cam crisis is most severe in southern Africa. The continent has 11 percent of the world's population, but only 3 percent of the world's health care workers. W. H.O. official Timothy Evans says part of the problem is caused by rich nations that offer high-paying jobs to doctors and nurses from poor countries. In addition, Mister Evans says few trained health care professionals are working where they are needed most. These in poor countries usually work in cities instead of farming areas.
The W. H.O. report provides a ten-year plan to deal with the crisis. It calls for national leadership and new policies for health workers. It also urges more international assistance and foreign aid. The report says that nations facing the most serious shortages must increase health care spending and use public money for health care effectively.
What is the passage mainly about？
(30)
A．The influence of WHO on governments.
B．The warning of the coming diseases.
C．The international cooperation in health improvement.
D．The shortage of health care workers.

听力原文： Every part of the United States has special celebrations, depending on the particular national groups that live in the area. In Hawaii, there are origins. Immigrants from China and Japan arrived in Hawaii in great numbers during the past century.The early Polynesians came to Hawaii from South Pacific islands more than a thousand years before any other people. The Asians left rich traditions for their younger generations to follow. Today, Hawaiians honor the memory of their ancestors with special feasts and festivals.Chinese-Hawaiians hold the Moon Festival to honor the memory of their ancestors and their native land. The Moon Festival occurs in August on the night of the full moon. Unlike the Japanese festival, the Chinese celebration is a simple family occasion. Family members gather in a garden or large open-air space in the light of the moon. They drink tea and feast on delicious moon-shaped cakes filled with meat or sweets, depending on family custom. If the family is from northern China, the cakes have meat in them. If the family comes from southern China, the cakes have sweet firings.The cakes, an important food on this occasion, represent an event in Chinese history. A long time ago, the people of China used round cakes in a special way they sent secret messages to each other in them. The messages gave instructions for the people of the north and south to join together to fight against the evil who ruled them at that time. The trick worked and the people were able to overthrow their ruler. By recalling this event in the Moon Festival, the Chinese people help to keep their native traditions alive and their family ties strong.

Recently the attack on illiteracy(文盲)has been stepped up. A world plan has been drawn up by a committee of UNESCO experts in Paris, as part of the United Nations Development Decade, and an international conference on the subject has the aim. People must learn the basic skills of responsible citizenship: the ability to read notices, newspapers, timetables, letters, pricelists, to keep simple records and accounts, to sort out the significance of the information gathered, and to fill in forms.
The major areas of illiteracy are in Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. In Africa there are at least one hundred million illiterates, compromising(牵连)eighty to eighty-five per cent of the total population. In Europe the figure is about twenty-four million, most of them in Southern Europe, with Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Yugoslavia heading the list (the United Kingdom has about seven hundred thousand).
Studying carefully the clues in the passage, we learn that the total population of Africa is ______.
A．approximately seven hundred million
B．approximately one hundred and twenty-five million
C．approximately eight or eight point five thousand million
D．exactly twenty-four million
The biggest problem facing Chile as it promotes itself as a tourist desti
nation is that it is at the end of the earth. It is too far southern to be a 【M1】______
convenient stop on the way to anywhere else and is much further than a 【M2】______
relatively cheap half-day's flight away from the big tourist markets. Chile,
therefore, is having to fight hard to attract tourists, to convince travelers
that it is worthwhile coming halfway round the world to visit. 【M3】______
Like all South American countriss, Chile sees to urism as a valuable

fear of street crime in Brazil has reduced the attraction of Rio de Janeiro as
a dream destination for foreigners.
More than 150,000 people are directly involved in Chile's tourist
sector, an industry which earns the country more than $ 950 million each
year. The state-run National Tourism Service, in partner with a number of 【M7】______
private companies, is currently running a worldwide campaign, takes part 【M8】______
in trade fairs and international events to attract visitors to Chile. Chile's
great strength as a tourist destination is its geographical diversity. From the
parching Atacama Desert in the north to the Antarctic snowfields of the 【M9】______
south, it is more than 5000km long. With the Pacific on one side and the
Andean mountains on the other, Chile boasts in natural attractions. Its 【M10】______
beaches are not up to Caribbean standards but resorts, such as Vina del Mar
