7个习惯（分数：10.00）
A.in
&
C.over √
D.around
解析：globe意为“球体，地球仪”，在本文中指的是“整个世界，全球”，over the globe意为“在世界上”。
A.from √
B.with
C.upon
&
解析：本题强调因为“疯牛病”的威胁，许多国家如南非、新西兰、新加坡纷纷禁止从英国进口牛肉。
A.accepting
B.banning √
C.cancelling
D.allowing
解析：join in+v．-ing意为“参加…”，banning意为“禁止，禁令”。根据文章整个意思，应该选此项。
A.likely √
B.liking
C.alike
D.like
解析：likely意为“可能的”。a likely link在本文中指的是一些科学家发现“疯牛病”和另一种病毒CJD可能有一定联系。
A.same
B.equivalent √
&unterpart
D.likeness
解析：equivalent意为“相等物，等价物”，比较切合文意，在文中指有可能与“疯牛病”有关联的一种人类的疾病CJD，而其他各项均无此意。
A.fruit分子植物育种
B.fruitful
C.failure
D.fruitless √
解析：fruitless是fruitful的反义词，意为“没有成果的；无效的”，放在此处比较切合文意，
其句意为：各种想使消费者和各国政府放心的努力都是无效的。
& √
B.in
C.over
D.for
解析：ban意为“禁止，禁令”，后面常接介词on，如：There is a ban on smoking in this theatre．这个戏院内不准吸烟。
A.have recommended
B.has recommended
&ended √
&ending
解析：本题考点为时态问题。注意本句后面出现了said，这个词明显说明应用过去时，所以一般过去时recommended最为合适，意为“推荐”。
A.call on
B.call for √
C.call in
D.call forth
解析：call for意为“呼唤；号召；要求”，比较合适此空，其句意为：“疯牛病”会感染人的证据还不充分，不应提倡对英国牛肉出口一概禁止。call on意为“拜访，访问”，放在此处不合适。
A.stop to eat
B.stop eating √
C.stop to be eating
D.stop not to eat
解析：本题考点为动词stop的用法，stop doing sth．指停下正在做的事；而stop to do sth．指停下来，开始做另一件事。因为过去一直食用英国牛肉，现在停下来，选择stop eating较合适。
& contract
B.being contracted
&acting √
&act
解析：be sure of sth．意为“确信；有把握”，所以此处应用contract的动名词形式，contract此处意为“感染，染(病)”。
A.fatal √
B.deadly
C.lethal
&al
解析：fatal意为“必死无疑的”；lethal意为“致死原因的”；deadly意为“不共戴天的；极度的”； mortal意为“会死的”。虽然各项均与死有关，但fatal为最佳选择，染上CJD病就必死无疑。
A.which is gripping
& grip
&ipped
&ipping √
解析：gripping用在这里表示一种正在伴随着的状态，意为“牢牢掌握，控制着”，其句意为：英国被恐惧与不安控制着。
A.affected
B.affects √
C.effect
D.affecting
解析：因为本句后面出现了in the same way that BSE makes cows mad，根据makes可判断此空应填入动词affect的第三人称单数形式affects。
A.after
B.before
C.until √
D.when
猪八戒戴花歇后语解析：until意为“直到…”，句意为：病毒不断吞食脑细胞直到它看上去像一个多孔的瑞士奶酷。
A.marks
&ace
C.symbols
D.signs √
解析：sign在医学上有“症状，病症”的意思，而其他各项均不合适，此句意为：患者表现出…痴呆和记忆衰败的症状。
A.after
B.until
C.in
D.within √
解析：within意为“在…范围内，不超过”。在句中意为“过不了六个月患者就会死亡”。 withi
n尤指在时间或距离内。
A.in
B.of
C.for √
&
解析：for sure此短语具有“肯定，确信”的意思，是一个固定搭配。
A.how
B.why √
C.what
D.when
寒冷的拼音解析：注意前面出现了一个explain，可知是为了说明原因，由此可判断这里应填入why，引出一个原因状语从句。
A.rule off
B.rule out √
C.rule over
D.rule of
解析：本题考点为关于rule的短语的用法。rule out常用于短语rule out the possibility中，意为“拒绝考虑；排除”，放在此处较合适，而rule off意为“(在书页上)划线格开”，rule over意为“统治”，都不合文意。

四、Text 1(总题数：1，分数：10.00)
In an interview last month, Frank Church, chairman of the Senate committee that is investigating the CIA, issued an oblique but impassioned warning, that the technology of eavesdropping had become so highly developed that Americans might soon be left with "no place to hide". That day may have arrived. Newsweek has learned that the country's most cret intelligence operation, the National Security Agency, already posss the computerized equipment to monitor nearly all overas telephone calls and most domestic and international printed messages.
The agency's devices monitor thousands of telephone circuits, cable lines and the microwave transmissons that carry an increasing share of both spoken and written communications. Computers are programed to watch for "trigger" words or phras indicating that a message might interest intelligence analysis, when the trigger is pulled, entire messages are tape-recorded or printed out.
辞职报告怎么写最好That kind of eavesdropping is, however, relatively simple compared with the breakthroughs that lie ahead in the field of snoopery. Already it is technically feasible to "bug" an electric typewriter by picking up its feeble electronic emissions from a remote loc
ation and then translating them into words. And some scientists believe that it may be possible in the future for remote electronic equipment to intercept and "read" human brain waves.

（分数：10.00）
(1).Which is the best title for the passage?（分数：2.00）
A.Fight Against Eavesdropping
B.A New Breakthrouth
C.No Place to Hide √
D.An Impassioned Warning
解析：C项最合全文的意思。可以根据排除法来做此题，A项，与窃听作斗争，文章中没有此意。B项，一项新的突破，过于笼统，不能体现出文章的要点。D项，一个富有感情的警告，虽然文中有此内容，但也不足以概括全文的意思。
(2).Which of the following is most likely to be bugged?（分数：2.00）
A.International telephone calls. √
B.International printed messages.
C.Domestic printed messages.
D.Electric typewriters.
解析：请看第一段最后一句…monitor nearly all overas telephone calls and most domestic and international printed messages．“监控了全部打往国外的电话和大部分国内电话及国际问的印刷信息。”由此可推断，国际电话是最可能被窃听的。
(3).The warning given by Frank Church is ______.（分数：2.00）
A.indirect but enthusiastic √
B.direct but passionate
C.ambiguous but calm
上海特色小吃
D.definite but indifferent
解析：根据第一段第2行，oblique意为“间接的”，impassioned意为“慷慨激昂的”，所以他的话应该是间接而又热心的。
