11、 the following passage. In the past industries had more freedom than they have now,and they did not need to be as careful as they must today.They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed.They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of t

12、he people who worked for them.Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them;often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.

13、ges.Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times,there were inquiries into the causes of the disater or the problems.New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries;however,the

14、 new rules came too late to protect the people who had died or become seriously ill.

I made a pledge to myself on the way down to the vacation beach cottage.For two weeks I would try to be a loving husband

20、and father.Totally loving.No ifs,ands or buts.

21、 admit that I had been a selfish husband.Well,for two weeks that would change. And it did.Right from the moment I kissed Evelyn at the door and said,“That new yellow sweater(套頭衫) looks great on you.” “Oh,Tom,you noticed,”she said,surprised and pleased.Maybe a little puzzled. After the long drive,I w

22、anted to sit and read.Evelyn suggested a walk on the beach.I stared to refuse,but then I thought,“Evelyns been alone here with the kids all week and now she wants to be alone with me.”We walked on the beach while the children flew their kites. So it went.Two weeks of not calling the Wall Street firm

23、 where I am a director,a visit to the shell museum though I usually hate museums.Relaxed and happy,thats how the whole vacation passed.I made a new pledge to keep on remembering to choose love. There was one thing that went wrong with my experiment,however.Evelyn and I still laugh about it today.On

24、the last night at our cottage,preparing for bed,Evelyn stared at me with the saddest expression. “Whats the matter?”I asked her. “Tom,”she said in a voice filled with distress,“do you know something I dont?” “What do you mean?” “Well.that checkup(體檢)I had several weeks ago.our doctor.did he tell you

25、 something about me?Tom,youve been so good to me.am I dying?” It took a moment for it all to sink in.Then I burst out laughing. “No,honey,”I said,wrapping her in my arms.“Youre not dying;Im just starting to live.”26.In the first paragraph,“No ifs,ands or buts” probably means “_.” AUnintentionally BI

26、nevitably CImpressively DUnconditionally27.From the story we may infer that Tom drove to the beach cottage _. Awith his family Bwith Evelyn Calone Dwith his children28.During the two weeks on the beach,Tom showed more love to his wife because _. Ashe looked lovely in her new clothes Bhe had made a l

31、ed by teachers imported from Japan to learn mathematics at Japanese levels,generally considered at least a year more advanced than the level here.

32、e names of all the worlds major cities,from Kabul to Karachi.At the same age,my son,who was brought up a Californian,thought that Buenos Aires was Spanish for good food.However,unlike children of his age in Asia and Europe,my son had studied creative geography.When he was only 6,he drew a map of the

33、 route that he traveled to get to school,including the streets,the traffic signs and the houses that he passed.
