阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

在现代化的办公室里，办公用品中最不可或缺的是什么?毫无疑问，电脑。其实，这种变化的时间并不长。

Without most people realizing it, there has been a revolution in office work over the last ten years. Before that time, large computers were only used by large, rich companies that could afford the investment. With the advancement of technology, small computers have come onto the market, which are capable of doing the work that used to be done by much larger and expensive computers, so now most smaller companies can use them.

The main development in small computers has been in the field of word processors (处理器), or WPS as they are often called. 40% of British offices are now estimated to have a word processor and this percentage is growing fast.

There are many advantages in using a word processor for both secretary and manager. The secretary is freed from a lot of daily work, such as re - typing letters and storing papers. He or she can use this time to do other more interesting work for the boss. From a manager's point of view, secretarial time is being made better use of and money can be saved by doing daily jobs automatically outside office hours.

But is it all good? If a lot of daily secretarial work can be done automatically, surely this will mean that fewer secretaries will be needed. Another worry is the increasing medical problems related to work with visual display units (显示器). The case of a slow loss of sight among people using word processors seems to have risen greatly. It is also feared that if a woman works at a CDU for long hours, the unborn child in her body might be killed. Safety screens to put over a VDU have been invented but few companies in England bother to buy them.

Whatever the arguments for and against word processor, they are a key feature (特征) of this revolution in office practice.

Stress Level Tied to Education Level

People with less education suffer fewer stressful days, according to report in the current issue of the Journal of Health and Social Behavior.

However, the study also found that when less - educated people did suffer stress it was more severe and had a larger impact on their health.

Front this, researchers have concluded that the day - to - day factors that cause are not random. Where you are in society determines the kinds of problems that you have each day, and how well you will cope with them.

The research team interviewed a national sample of 1,031 adults daily for eight days about their stress level and health. People without a high school diploma (毕业文凭) reported stress on 30 percent of the study days, people with a high school degree reported stress 38 percent of the time, and people with college degrees reporned stress 44 percent to the time.

"Less advantaged people are less healthy on daily basis and are more likely to have downward turns in their health," lead researcher DR. Joseph Grzywacz, of Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center, said in a prepared statement. "The downward turns in health were connected with daily stressors and the effect of daily stressors on their health is much more devastating (毁灭性的) for the less advantaged," Grzywacz suggested follow - up research to determine why less - educated people report fewer days of stress when it is known their stress in more acute and chronic.

"If something happens every day, maybe it's no seen as a stressor" Grzywacz says. "Maybe it is just life"

41.Stress level is closely related to .

A.family size B.social status C.body weight D.work experience

42.The 1,301, adults were interviewed .

A.on a daily basis for 8 days B.during one of eight days

C.all by Grzywacz D.in groups

43.Which group reported the biggest number of stressful days?

A.People without any education. B.People without high school degrees.

C.People with high school degrees. D.People with college degrees.

44.The less advantaged people are, the greater .

A.the impact off stress on their health is

B.the effect off education on their health is

C.the level of their education is

D.the degree of their health concern is

45.Less - educated people report fewer days of stress possibly because .

B.they don't want to face the truth

C.stress is to common a factor in their lives

D.their stress is more acute

看过电影《泰坦尼克号》的观众对冰川的印象应该比较深刻，他是怎样形成的?他们对行船有何影响?如果不熟悉，请看下文。

Icebergs are among nature's most impressive creations, and yet most people have never seen one. They come into being somewhere in faraway, freezing waters, amid thunderous noise and splashing turbulence(漩涡), which in most cases no one hears or sees. They exist only a short time and then slowly melt away just as unnoticed.

They have been called objects of complete beauty. Appearing in an endless variety of shapes, they may be dazzlingly white, or they may be glassy blue, green or purple, in light colors or in dark colors. They are graceful, stately, inspiring-in calm, sunlit seas.

But they are also called frightening and dangerous, and that they are-in the night, in the fog, and in storms. Even in clear weather one is wise to stay a safe distance away from them. Most of their main part is hidden below the water, so their underwater parts may extend out far beyond the visible top. Also, they may roll over unexpectedly, stirring the waters around them.

Icebergs are parts of glaciers that break off, drift into the water, float about awhile, and finally melt. Icebergs floating today are made of snows that have fallen over long ages of time. They include snows that drifted down hundreds, or many thousands, or in some cases maybe a million years ago. The snows fell in Polar regions and on cold mountains, where they melted only a little or not at all, and so collected to great depths over the years and centuries.

As each year's snow accumulation lay on the surface, evaporation and melting caused the snowflakes slowly to become tiny grains of ice. When new snow fell on top of the old, it too turned to icy grains. So blankets of snow and ice grains mounted layer upon layer and were of such great thickness that the weight of the upper layers pressed the lower ones. With time and pressure from above, the many small ice grains joined and changed to larger crystals, and eventually the deeper crystals merged into a solid mass of ice.

46.The underlined word "dazzlingly" in Paragraph 2 probably means " ".

A.brilliantly B.abundantly C.beautifully D.approximately

47.The author states that icebergs are rarely seen because they are .

A.broken by waves soon after they are found

B.hidden under the mountains

C.located in remote regions of the world

D.surrounded by fog

48.The underlined phrase "from above" in the last paragraph refers to " ".

A.sunlit seas B.polar regions

C.weight of mountains D.layers of ice and snow

49.According to the passage, icebergs are dangerous because they .

A.usually melt quickly

B.can turn over suddenly

C.may create large snowdrifts

D.may float and hit the ships suddenly
