Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
① The past year, which is fast becoming just a memory, is the year I drove through the car wash at fifty miles an hour. At least, it felt like fifty miles an hour.
② That day I followed the attendant’s instructions, drove to one of those do-it-yourself car washes. I forgot that my car was a bit moody. I’d been meaning to have it checked, but it didn’t happen often enough to rush me to the garage. Anyway, then unexpectedly, suddenly we picked up speed before the astonished eyes of the attendant. The car shot through the wash cycle, the wax（蜡）cycle, and the dry cycle at a ridiculous rate of speed, and then aimed for the street at the end of the tunnel. We shot through the tunnel with what seemed like the speed of sound and rushed out into the street while I was relieved to see that no cars were approaching. The water and the wax had not yet dried — the car looked as if it had caught some terrible disease.
③ ―What happened then?‖ Bobbie asked after I had told my family the story at an evening meal.
④ ―Nothing,‖ I said.
⑤ ―Didn’t you go back to the car wash?‖
⑥ ―Of course not,‖ I replied.
⑦ ―I don’t blame you,‖ Peter said. ―They might have arrested you for speeding in a car wash.‖
⑧ We all laughed. It was a nice moment. We were relaxing after the dishes had been taken away, the pleasant smell of coffee filling the air. We had been talking about the past year and, without pausing to think of the possible consequences, I had told them about my experience with the car wash.
⑨ The story delighted the children — who are no longer children. Peter and Bobbie are married, in fact, and I realized I had given them a sort of philosophy of life for the future. I could imagine them, years from now, when they gather together and one of them will say, ―Remember the time Dad drove through that car wash …?‖
⑩ Other things happened last year, too, because each year has its events, the good and the bad, the sweet and the sorrowful, the ordinary and the terrific. The milestones and the small incidents stand side by side, fundamentally different in quality or kind, perhaps, but
making a sweet kind of harmony.

(C)
When a patient calls for help at Seton Medical Center, ―Hi, Mr. Rogers, can I help you?‖ says a nurse; it’s never a problem finding the nurse. It’s because they all wear locator tags that are part of a wireless system that tracks their movements on the floor. ―You can even tell when they are walking down the hallway.‖ says James Hattori.
This system made by Hill-Rom uses infrared（红外线的）signals to detect when nurses enter a room to answer a call. The Hill-Rom devices look like a mini computer mouse. Some hospitals are putting them in nurses’ kitchens. Staff can talk and listen through a wall unit to nurses or even to patients in other rooms. ―We can put the time we were spending hunting staff down, trying to find and locate them to much better use,‖ says a staff member from Seton. Hill-Rom says it has systems installed in more than 850 U.S. hospitals.
Some nurses worry that the devices will be used to listen in on conversations and their movements. ―I’m not wearing mine. I will still meet my patient’s needs but I will not wear this badge.‖ Annette Bearden is among dozens of nurses at Eden Medical Center who staged an active protest two months ago and hid their badges though they were later recovered. ―You know it makes me not feel like a professional. It makes me feel like that someone has to watch me to make sure I am doing my job.‖
―The biggest reason we installed this technology is because our old call system is about 25 years old,‖ says a hospital manager. For hospitals this is a case of technology allowing, perhaps forcing people to better make use of their time. Officials at Eden don’t deny they monitor how long it takes nurses to respond to calls but say their main concern is patient care. ―I think it is one tool that we can use in measuring overall performance but by itself it is not a valid disciplinary tool,‖ says an Eden spokesperson.
Eden is expanding its system with hopes the nurse will eventually accept the new technology, but back at Seton where it’s been in place for about two years, there is no uneasiness. ―Once the staff actually find out how advantageous it can be for them and the patients, well, actually it became very popular.‖
In Castro Valley, California, the Eden Medical Center spent almost three hundred thousand dollars to install the Hill-Rom systems on two floors. Eden hopes to get more of the systems for other floors.
73. Why is it easy to find a nurse at Seton Medical Center?
A. The nurses are on television.
B. The nurses wear locator badges.
C. Every patient has his/her own nurse.
D. Each room has a telephone.
74. How can the staff talk to their patients when they are not in the same room?
A. With hand signals. B. Through microphones in the pocket.
C. Through a wall unit. D. With infrared signals on the doors.
75. According to the passage, the underlined word ―scrutinize‖ (paragraph 3) probably means
_______.
A. watch closely B. see inside
C. scan word by word D. make right
76. How did the nurses at Eden Medical Center react to the badges?
A. The nurses really liked the badges.
B. They threw the locator badges away.
C. They refused to work.
D. They protested and concealed the badges.
77. According to the administrators of the hospital, Eden Medical Center, the application of the
Hill-Rom devices mainly aims at _______.
A. introducing modern technology
B. adding a tool for discipline
C. replacing the old call system
D. improving the service for patients
Section C
Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
It was early in the afternoon of May 10, 1996. I hadn’t slept in 57 hours. The only food I had been able to force down over the proceeding three days was a bowel of soup. Weeks of violent coughing had made ordinary breathing a bitter process. At 29,028 feet up in the troposphere（气体对流）, so little oxygen was reaching my brain that my mental capacity was that of a slow child. Under the circumstances, I was incapable of feeling much of anything except cold and tired.
I’d arrived on the summit a few minutes after Anatoli Boukreev, a Russian climbing guide working for an American commercial expedition, and just ahead of Andy Harris, a guide on the New Zealand-based team to which I belonged. Although I just met Boukreev, I had come to know and like Harris well during the proceeding six weeks. I snapped four quick photos of Harris and Boukreev striking summit poses, then turned and headed down. My watch read 1:17 p.m. I’d spent less than five minutes on the roof of the world.
A moment later, I paused to take another photo, this one looking down the Southeast Eidge, the route we had chosen to go up. Training my lens（镜头）on a pair of climbers approaching the summit, I noticed something that until that moment had escaped my attention. To the south, where the sky had been perfectly clear just an hour earlier, a blanket of clouds now hid the peaks surrounding Everest. Later, after six bodies had been located, after a search
for two others had been abandoned, after surgeons had removed the rotten right hand of my teammate Beck Weathers, people would ask why, if the weather had begun to worsen, had climbers on the upper mountain not observed the signs? Why did experienced Himalayan guides keep moving upward, leading a gang of relatively inexperienced amateurs — each of whom had paid as much as $65,000 to be taken safely up Everest — into an apparent death trap?
Nobody can speak for the leaders of the two guided groups involved, because both men are dead. But I can assure that nothing I saw early on the afternoon of May 10th suggested that a murderous storm was bearing down. To my oxygen-exhausted mind, the clouds drifting up the grand valley of ice known as the Western Cwm（西库姆冰斗） looked so friendly and innocent in the brilliant midday sun, not different from that rose from the valley almost every afternoon.
As I began my descent I was extremely anxious, but my concern had little to do with the weather: a check of the meter on my oxygen tank had revealed that it was almost empty. I needed to get down, fast.
(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)
78. Where were the three climbers mentioned in the second paragraph from?
______________________________________________________________________
79. Besides the change of the weather, what else led to the expedition team’s falling into a death trap?
_______________________________________________________________________
80. The underlined phrase ―the harmless puffs‖ in paragraph 4 refers to ______________
_______________________________________________________________________.
81. The author spent less than five minutes on the roof of the world and climbed down fast
because _______________________________________________________________.
