74. The main idea of the whole story is that _______.
there is more food and water in space than on earth
eating and drinking in space is a special problem
astronauts can never eat or drink in a spaceship
there is no food or water in a spaceship
75. Which of the following does the story lead you to believe?
Food for astronauts must be made in a special way.

Passage Four
The energy which the sun radiates goes in every direction, and only a minute part of it falls on the earth. Even so, it represents power of about 5,000,000 horsepower (马力) per square mile per day; the sun gives us as much energy every miunte as mankind utilizes in a year. At present, we use this energy indirectly, and it is our final source of power. Coal represents the chemical action of the sun on green plants thousands of years ago. Water power results from the rain formed by vapor which comes from the evaporation of water under the sunshine. Even windmills operate because of air currents set in motion by the different heating affects of the sun in different places. Some day, through chemistry or some type of solar engine, we shall harness this great source of energy more directly. Already a scientist has worked out an engine, surprisingly efficient, in which the sun’s rays are concentrated through mirrors on a tube of water to create steam.
76. How much energy given off by the sun reaches the earth?
A. 100% but indirectly. B. 5%.
C. 50%. D. only a very tiny amount.
77. The reason why all the solar energy falling on the earth can’t be utilized is that ______.
only a very small part is available the sun is too distant from the earth
it takes thousands of years for this energy to be stored up in coal and oil
our scientific knowledge is not sufficient
78. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
Even windmill’s action depends on the sun.
The sun produces enormous energy for man to make use of.
Some day man will be able to utilize 100% of the solar energy that gets to the earth.
The sun produces different heating effects in different places.
79. In order to support this argument, the writer gives the example that _______.
a machine using solar energy efficiently has already been developed
the sun is our final source of power
man uses only a tiny part of the sun’s energy
the part of the sun’s energy we use is used indirectly
80. This passage centers mainly on ________.
harnessing energy through chemistry
our last source of power
how water power is produced
the amount of solar energy that can be utilized

Should Men and Women Be Equal?
People have different ideas about this issue, Some people say that men are superior to women in ability because men are physically stronger, do most of the hard labor in the world and hold most important positions. Other people believe that women have the ability to compete with men. There have been many famous women state leaders and great scientists in the world. We should fully carry out the principle “to each according to his work” so that the enthusiasm of both men and women for work can be fully aroused.
