"Wanted by the FBI."To the murderer,or the bank robber,these are the mostfrightening words in the world.When the criminal(罪犯)hears them,he knows that sixthousand trained persons are after him.
Why should he be so afraid?There are hundreds of cities and thousands of villageswhere he can hide.There are large forests and deserts where he can lose himself.Besideshe's usually rich with stolen money.
Money can make it easier to hide.With money,the criminal can pay a dishonest doctor to operate on his face and make him hard to recognize.Money can pay for a hideout some far-off place.But the criminal knows what happened to public enemies such as JohnDillinger,Baby Face Nelson,and Machine Gun Kelly.They had plenty of money and goodhideouts.Yet one by one they were found by the men of the FBI.
They know every trick the criminal knows and many more.If he makes just one mistaketake,they'll get him.That's why the man who is hunted can't sleep.That's why he becomes nervous,why he jumps at every 'sound."When he makes a mistake,he'll no longerbe"wanted by the FBI".He'll have been caught.
The FBI began on May 10,1924.Attorney General Harlan F.Stone chose J.EegarHoover,a young lawyer in the Department of Justice,to head the new agency(机构)。"What we need is a wholly new kind of police force,"he said."Criminals today are smart.They use stolen cars and even planes to make their gateways.They have learned to openany lock.The criminal would have discovered science.We can't beat them with old methods.We have to train officers to work scientifically."
J.EdgarHoover quietly went ahead with his plans.He picked his men carefully.They had to be between the ages of twenty-five and thirty-five.He wanted only men withgood manners and good character.When working ashis officers they would have to meetall kinds of people.Hoover wanted men who could handle a teacup as well as a gun.Hechose men so carefully that he made theFBI the hardest service in the world to get into.The FBI cannot help in every police problem.It can look into only certain crimes againstthe government.Solving all other crimes is the duty of local police forces.1.A man wanted by the FBI will find that money is()

Passage Two
Women are on the whole more verbal than men. They are good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning. while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial(
视空 )abilities. In fact, along with aggression these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.
Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology( 神经生理学 ), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain males are specialists while women are generalists.
But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial and it ’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled
as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity.
(82)A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.Why do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves?
单选题A. Because they have no visual-spatial skills.~||~Because they are only good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning. ~||~Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspects. ~||~Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles,computers,etc.
5.It was sunrise on an August morning when the captain and his crew cast their nets some 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. As the net was pulled over, the contents were poured out followed by excited cries of "Coins! Coins!" The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fishermen's dream: sunken treasure! And not just any treasure, but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.In 1784, at the end of the American Revolutionary War, a heavily armed ship was bund for the port of New Orleans. On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars. Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans, yet not a single one arrived. With no survivors from theill-fated voyage, historians can only guess at what happened. Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasure-hungry pirates (海盗) . Whatever happened, the secret -- along with a treasure valued near $100,000,000 in today's dollars -- was sent to a watery grave some 300 feet below the ocean's surface.Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans. Widely used and accepted as payment in the thirteen colonies, the United States government gave them the status of official legal tender. Unfortunately, even though they were struck in large quantities, not many of them survive today. After the Civil War, the government withdrew them from circulation and they were melted down.Due to the historic discovery of the treasure, GovMint.com is releasing these coins to the public for an amazingly low price. For a limited time, these authentic silver dollars are priced at$49 plus shipping and handling -- a dramatic reduction from the market price of this coin anywhere else worldwide.What surprised the fishermen on an August morning?
单选题A. Their net contained a big strange-looking fish.~||~ They found the treasure sunken 210 years ago.~||~ They found some pieces of a sunken ship in the net.~||~ Their net suddenly got caught by something deep in the water.

14.Passage ThreeThe small number of newborn babies, which has been caused by high price and the changing social situation of women, is one of the most serious problems in Asia. When people talk about it, you can hear a word invented in Japan, "DINKS", which means Double Income No Kids.In many major Asian cities like Seoul, Singapore, and Tokyo, the cost of a house is extremely high. A young couple who want to buy their own house may have to pay about $ 300,000 (though prices have fallen). For a fiat with one bedroom, one dining-room, a kitchen,and a bathroom, the couple will pay about $ 900 a month. What's more, if they want to have a child, the child's education is very expensive. For example, most kindergarten charges are at a child, the child's education is very expensive~ For example, most kindergarten charges are at least $ 5,000 a year. In such a situation, it's difficult to afford children.The number of married women who want to continue working increases rapidly because they enjoy their jobs. However, if they want to have children, they immediately have serious problems. Though most companies allow women to leave their job for a short time to have a baby, they expect women with babies to gave up their jobs. In short, if they want to bring up children properly, both parents have to work, but it is hard for mothers to work. Indeed,women who want to continue working have to choose between having children or keeping their jobs.In a word, Asian governments must take steps to improve the present situation as soon as possibleAccording to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

17.Can animals be made to work for us? Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings. They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things.Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film.If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward.The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them. Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modem times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near.But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories.In Russia, for example, pigeons which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory.When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak.This turns on a light to warn people in the factory.At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward.It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeon to do this and one pigeon can inspect 3 000 to 4 000 balls an hour. Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys may be one day gather crops and even drive trains.[单选题] The trainer usually gives the animal a piece of candy or fruit __.
