20．The following are the results of the tests done by"Family and Home Magazine"on some Pocket Tape-Recorders on the market now．
Pearlcorder S702 64
This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording．Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible，but it doesn't turn off automatically．
Tape length：30minutes per side．Weight：240g．
Sony M9  49.95
Small and very good looking，Sony's latest offering scored most for its appearance．Sounds clear，but there is slight machine noise．The big control buttons are a great improvement on some of the complicated little controls on other tape-recorders．It doesn't switch off automatically，but a red light shows if the machine is still running．
Tape length：60minutes per side．Weight：195g．
Sony M400 115
Lots of little control buttons that make a noise are difficult to use．Recording is good but machine noise loses points．Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful．
Tape length：60 minutes per side．Weight：230g．
Imperial OEM MC7 29.95
Cheap and simple compared with the rest，but recording is good as long as there is no background noise．Use only its own-make of cassette．No light to show it is on； no fast-forward button and the record button makes a loud noise．
Tape length：30 minutes per side．Weight：285g．
Philips 585 80
Handsome and simple to use，but recording is very poor at more than the recommended distance of 5 cm-designed for dictation．No recording light．
Tape length：15 minutes per side．Weight：220g．

60．The machine that produces the best recording with the least unwanted noise isA．
A．Pearlcorder S 702    B．Sony M9     C．Sony M400   D．Imperial OEM MC7
61．If you want a machine which turns off automatically and weighs very little you should chooseC
A．Pearlcorder S 702     B．Sony M9   C．Sony M400     D．Philips 585
62．Which of the following allows you to record longest but costs you least？D

63．What disadvantage does only the Imperial OEM MC7 have？B
A．No light shows when it is on．B．It requires a special cassette．
C．It picks up background noise．D．The record button makes a noise．

分析 本文介紹了幾種袖珍錄音機的詳細(xì)信息．

解答 60．A 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)This simple model at the bottom of the Olympus range scored the most points for its excellent quality of recording．Background noise hardly affects the sound and recording from a pocket is perfectly possible，說明這種機器錄音功能最好，噪音也很小，故A正確．
61．C 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)該部分的Tape counter and automatic switch-off when tape has finished recording or rewinding are useful．和Weight：230g說明Sony M400有自動關(guān)機的功能，同時也不算重的．故C項正確．
62．D 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)本部分的Tape length：60minutes per side．和Sony M9   $49.95可知他的錄音時間是最長的，價格也相對合理．故D項正確．
63．B 細(xì)節(jié)題．根據(jù)Imperial OEM MC7 $ 29.95和Use only its own-make of cassette．說明它需要專用的機器，故B正確．

10．Let us suppose it is now about A．D.2060．Let's make believe （假裝；虛構(gòu)） it is about sixty years from now．Of course，things have changed and life is very different．
Voyages to the moon are being made every day．It is as easy to take a holiday on the moon today as it was for the people in 1960to take a holiday in Europe．At a number of scenic spots on the moon，many hotels have been built．The hotels are air-conditioned，naturally．In order that everyone can enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moon，every room has at least one picture window．Everything imaginable is provided for entertainment （娛樂） of young and old．
What are people eating now？People are still eating food．They haven't yet started to take on heir （繼承） supply of energy directly as electrical current or as nuclear power．They may some day．But many foods now come in pill form，and the food that goes into the pill continues to come mainly from green plants．
Since there are several times as many people in the world today as there were a[]hundred years ago，most of our planet's surface has to be filled．The deserts are irrigated with water and crops are no longer destroyed bypests．The harvest is always good．
Farming，of course，is very highly developed．Very few people have to work on the farm．It is possible to run the farm by just pushing a few buttons now and then．
People are now largely vegetarians （素食者）．You see，as the number of people increases，the number of animal decreases．Therefore，the people have to be vegetarians and we are healthier both in our bodies and in our minds，and we know the causes and cure of disease and pain，and it is possible to get rid of diseases．No one has to be ill any more．
Such would be our life in 2060．
32．When was the passage written？D
A．In about A．D.2060．
B．In about 1960．
C．In about 2004．
D．In about 2000．
33．According to the passage，what will be on the moon in about A．D.2060？B
A．Many other animals．
B．Many tourists．
C．Many plants．
D．A sea．
34．What will people eat then according to the passage？A
A．Foods in pill form．
B．Biscuits in pill form．
C．Foods in water form．
D．Foods in gas form．
35．The passage tells us that in 2060，C on the earth than now．
A．there are fewer population   
B．there are more pests
C．the crops are getting better   
D．there is less wate．

11．When kids hit puberty（青春期），their bodies and minds go through tons of changes，including the larynx，the voice box in the throat．The larynx is what gives you your voice．You can find your larynx by touching the front of your throat and humming．When you feel vibrations（震動） under your fingers，you've found it!
When the larynx grows larger during puberty，it sticks out at the front of the throat．This is what's called an Adam's apple．Everyone's larynx grows during puberty，but a girl's larynx doesn't grow as much as a boy's does．That's why boys have Adam's apples．Most girls don't have Adam's apples，but some do．
But why is it called an Adam's apple？If you think it's called that after the story of the Garden of Eden where Adam ate a piece of the forbidden fruit that got stuck in his throat，you're right．An Adam's apple sometimes looks like a small，rounded apple just under the skin in the front of the throat．
This larger larynx also gives boys deeper voices．Actually，girls'voices get a little bit deeper as their larynxes get larger，too．But because boys'larynxes grow so much more，it makes their voices deeper than girls'voices．
The larynx doesn't grow to its new size overnight，though．If you've ever heard a teenage boy's voice sound squeaky（發(fā)短促尖叫聲的），you've heard a larynx trying to get adjusted to its new size!
28．Who has Adam's apples after puberty？D
A．All kids．
B．Most girls．
C．Most boys．
D．Boys．
29．What makes a person's voice deeper？A
A．The size of the larynx．
B．The length of puberty．
C．The amount of body changes．
D．The shape of one's throat．
30．Which of the following is true about the larynx？B
A．The larynx comes after Adam's apples．
B．The larynx grows gradually in one's teens．
C．The larynx grows the moment a person is born．
D．The larynx is a piece of apple stuck in the throat．
31．What's mainly talked about in the text？B
A．Where an Adam's apple exists．
B．What an Adam's apple is．
C．When teenagers have their puberty．
D．How squeaky a teenage boy's voice sounds．

There is no doubt that this decision will encourage more citizens to ride bicycles．Consequently，it contributes to reducing thge traffic pressure in our city as well as the emission or the greenhouse gases，thus in a way slowing the process of global warming．For us citizens，not only is riding bicycle an economic way to transport but it offers us a good chance to exerciseThank you for reading my letter．I am sure all citizens are looking forward to a more convenient life and a greener world．
Yours faithfully，
