Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the answer to each of the questions from 41 to 50

Traditionally in America, helping the poor was a matter for private charities or local government.

Arriving immigrants depended mainly on predecessors from their homeland to help them start a new life. In the late 19^th and early 20^th century, several European nations instituted public-welfare programs.

But such a movement was slow to take hold in the United States because the rapid pace of industrialization and the ready availability of farmland seemed to confirm the belief that anyone who was willing to work could find a job.

Most of the programs started during the Depression era were temporary relief measures, but one of the programs- Social Security - has become an American institution. Paid for by deduction from the paychecks of working people, Social Security ensures that retired persons receive a modest monthly

(3)

income and also provides unemployment insurance, disability insurance, and other assistance to those who need it. Social Security payments to retired persons can start at age 62, but many wait until age 65, when the payments are slightly higher. Recently, there has been concern that the Social Security fund may not have enough money to fulfill its obligations in the 21^st century, when the population of elderly Americans is expected to increase dramatically. Policy makers have proposed various ways to make up the anticipated deficit, but a long-term solution is still being debated.

In the years since Roosevelt, other American presidents have established assistance programs.

These include Medical and Medicare; food stamps, certificates that people can use to purchase food;

public housing which is built at federal expense and made available to persons with low incomes.

Needy Americans can also turn to sources other than government for help. A broad spectrum of private charities and voluntary organizations is available .Volunteerism is on the rise in the United States, especially among retired persons. It is estimated that almost 50 percent of Americans over age 18 do volunteer work, and nearly 75 percent of U.S. households contribute money to charity.

41). New immigrants to the U.S. could seek help from ______

A). the U.S. government agencie C). the people who came earlier B). volunteer organization D). only charity organizations

42). Public-welfare programs were unable to take firm root in the U.S. due to the fast growth of______

A). modernization B). population C). industrialization D). urbanization 43). The word "institute" in the first paragraph mostly means _______

A). carried out B). enforced C). studied D). introduced

44). The Social Security program has become possible thanks to _______

A). enforcement laws C). people's willingness to work

B). donations from company D). deductions from wages

45). Most of the public assistance programs _____ after the severe economic crisis

A). functioned fruitfully in institutions C). were introduced into institutions B). did not work in institutions D). did not become institutionalized 46). That Social Security payments will be a burden comes from the concern that ____

A). the program discourages working people C). elderly people ask for more money B). younger people do not want to work D). the number of elderly people is growing.

47). Persons with low incomes can access public housing through_____

A). federal expenditure B). donations C). low rents D). state spending 48). Americans with low incomes can seek help from ______

A). non-government agencies C). government agencies

Read the following passage carefully and then choose the best option A, B, C, D from 66 to 75 Animation traditionally is done by hand-drawing or painting successive frames of an object, each slightly different than the preceding frame. In computer animation, although the computer may be the one to draw the different frames, in most cases the artist will draw the beginning and ending frames and the computer will produce the drawings between the first and the last drawing. This is generally referred to as computer-assisted animation, because the computer is more of a helper than an originator.

In full computer animation, complex mathematical formulas are used to produce the final sequence of pictures. These formulas operate on extensive databases of numbers that define the objects in the pictures as they exist in mathematical space. The database consists of endpoints, and color and intensity information. Highly trained professionals are needed to produce such effects because animation that obtains high degrees of realism involves computer techniques for three-dimensional transformation, shading, and curvatures.

High-tech computer animation for film involves very expensive computer systems along with special color terminals or frame buffers. The frame buffer is nothing more than a giant image memory for viewing a single frame. It temporarily holds the image for display on the screen.

A camera can be used to film directly from the computer's display screen, but for the highest quality images, possible, expensive film recorders are used. The computer computes the positions and colors for the figures in the picture, and sends this information to the recorder, which captures it on film.

Sometimes, however, the images are stored on a large magnetic disk before being sent to the recorder.

Once this process is completed, it is repeated for the next frame. When the entire sequence has been recorded on the film, the film must be developed before the animation can be viewed. If the entire sequence does not seem right, the motions must be corrected, recomputed, redisplayed, and rerecorded.

This approach can be very expensive and time consuming. Often, computer-animation companies first do motion tests with simple computer-generated line drawings before selling their computers to the task of calculating the high-resolution, realistic-looking images.

66). What aspect of computer animation does the passage mainly discuss?

A). The role of the artist C). The high cost

B). The equipment needed D). The production process

67). According to the passage, in computer - assisted animation the role of the computer is to draw the ______.

A). expose several frames at the same time C). create new frames B). store individual images D). add color to the images

70). According to the passage, the positions and colors of the figures in high- tech animation are determined by ____.

A). using computer calculations B). analyzing the sequence from different angles C). drawing several versions D). enlarging one frame at a lime

71). The word "captures" in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.

A). separates B). describes C). numbers D). registers

72). The word "Once" in the fourth paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.

A). after B). since C). before D). while

Read the following passage carefully and then choose the best option A, B, C, D from 66 to 75 Animation traditionally is done by hand-drawing or painting successive frames of an object, each slightly different than the preceding frame. In computer animation, although the computer may be the one to draw the different frames, in most cases the artist will draw the beginning and ending frames and the computer will produce the drawings between the first and the last drawing. This is generally referred to as computer-assisted animation, because the computer is more of a helper than an originator.

High-tech computer animation for film involves very expensive computer systems along with special color terminals or frame buffers. The frame buffer is nothing more than a giant image memory for viewing a single frame. It temporarily holds the image for display on the screen.

A camera can be used to film directly from the computer's display screen, but for the highest quality images, possible, expensive film recorders are used. The computer computes the positions and colors for the figures in the picture, and sends this information to the recorder, which captures it on film.
