28、arks) Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passageAThe oil from palms (棕榈) has a wid
29、e variety of uses and is found in food, soaps and shampoos. An international team found a gene that made some of the trees produce more oil than others.Dr Rajinder Singh, from government agency the Malaysian Palm Oil Board, said, “The oil palm has three fruit forms: a thick-shelled type the Dura; th
30、ose that dont have any shellthe Pisifera; a third form produced as a cross between the thick shell and the one without the shellthe Tenera, which are more of the fleshy fruit to produce the oil,” and the researchers identified the gene producing this trait. While oil palm growers attempt to grow onl
31、y the thin-shelled Tenera variety, up to 10% of the seeds can be contaminated (污染的), and turn out to be the other less oily plants. Prof. Martienssen, from the Cold Spring Harbour Laboratory, said, “We can now use that gene in genetic testing, which will allow growers as well as producers to know ex
32、actly what sort of tree they are planting before it produces fruit. It takes a long time for these trees to produce fruit, but by being able to predict exactly what sort of fruit that trees will produce, it will greatly assist growers.”The researchers say this could offer a more sustainable form of
33、agriculture. Prof. Martienssen said, “This finding gives us huge hope. We hope to maximize land usage and produce a lot more on the same amount of land, because we do not want to destroy the rain forest any more.”However, the environmental group WWF-UK said that the global demand for oil palm was gr
34、owing rapidly, making the expansion of plantations inevitable.Adam Harrison, the organizations food and agriculture policy officer, said, “In a sense it does not matter if a good variety replaces forest or a bad one, the wildlife and communities that need access to that land will suffer. So for palm
35、 oil to be sustainable, the process of allocating (分配) land needs to be controlled. There is an abundance of low-carbon, low-wildlife and conflict-free land available and there is no more need for forest areas to be changed.”56. What can we infer from the passage? A. The plantation of oil palms has
36、decreased in recent years. B. The Dura produces less oil than other two types of palm fruit. C. It takes less time to produce fruit, Pisifera, than other two types of fruit. D. The researchers are trying to produce more palms with the fruit, Tenera.57. What difficulty are the oil palm growers faced
37、with? A. The more oily palms easily died of bad weather. B. The more oily palms can change to the less oily ones. C. They dont have enough land to grow oil palms. D. They are unable to predict exactly what sort of fruit the trees they are planting will produce. 58. According to his statement in Para
38、graph 4, Prof Martienssen thought they should _. A. expand the plantation of oil palms B. plant more other trees instead of oil palms C. make full use of less land to plant oil palms D. only grow the more sustainable type of oil palms59. The underlined word “inevitable” in the last but one paragraph
39、 means _. A. unchangeable B. improper C. uncertain D. impractical60. Over which issue Adam Harrison showed his concern? A. The oil palm is not a good replacement of the forest. B. The palm oil the researchers are testing is unsustainable. C. There is not enough land for the plantation of oil palms.
40、D. The plantation of oil palms will affect the native environment.BSalesman Ramesh lived in the southern part of India. He got his first assignment in the month of June, the start of the rainy season in the area. He was given a list of local laundry owners whom he had to approach and sell products t
41、o. He was scared and thought he wouldnt be able to fulfill the task, but he accepted the challenge as he had no other choice. The next day he started approaching the laundry owners, and within 15 days he got a really nice response. Most of them purchased his products, but they borrowed money from Ra
42、mesh to buy the products. Everyone promised to pay him back within the next 15 days. During the last week of June a midst heavy showers, he started visiting the laundry owners to collect money. Upon visiting half of them, he realized he hadnt collected a penny. After almost 14 days, on a bright sunn
43、y Monday morning, he started visiting the laundry owners once again. Suddenly, by noon Ramesh realized that he had collected the payments from almost 50% of the owners. He worked hard throughout the day, and by the end of the day he had completed 90% of his target for June and July. At last, he beca
44、me the “star performer” for the months of June and July. Why did the laundry owners look at the sky and tell him to come the next day when Ramesh visited them? He went to a laundry owner and asked him the question. The owner said, “This is the month of the rainy season and we have to wash the clothe
45、s, dry them off and iron them before handing them over to customers. If the sun doesnt shine, how can we dry our clothes and earn money to pay you back?” Ramesh then realized that it was his patience and endurance that kept him going and ultimately helped him achieve success. Like Ramesh, each one of us should realize that apart from being honest and hard-working, if we can keep our patience, we are inching up the ladder of success. 61. What can we learn about Ramesh? A. He didnt like the job of salesman. B. He was confident in
