23 never come down even for a drink of water. In fact, their names means “no drink.” The koalas have a
24 of knowing which trees they can feed on safely. They eat each leaf the same way.
25 , they bite the leaf off the stem and then they chew it from base to
26 .
When a koala is born, it is less than an inch long. The baby crawls into the mother’s
27 right away and stays there for six months. After that, the baby rides piggyback or hangs on
28 the mother’s front paws and legs. Young koalas stay with their mothers for at least a year.
The koala is a strong climber. Its paws end with sharp claws,
29 he can get a good grip on tree branches. Koalas sleep in the eucalyptus trees on most of the day and eat at night. Koalas may live alone or in small

三、 阅读理解(本大题共10小题,每小题2分,共20分)
阅读下面的短文,从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案填空或答题,错选、多选或未选均无分。
Passage 1
The Internet will play a central role in conducting international trade beyond the year 2000. The World Trade Centers Association (WTCA) recently announced a plan to assist developing countries develop a capacity for e-commerce and e-business. The spin off from this decision can pay huge dividends to offshore companies that position themselves on-line right now to supply goods and services to the coming global Internet trading market.
E-business will help you get set up and operate with a minimum of effort and at reasonable prices.
E-business Incorporated works with international companies to set up a web-office, or CyberSuite as its own domain accessible over the Internet via its own domain name or from the e-business Cyberspace Station.
If you are a supplier, your CyberSuite would have a showroom where visitors — especially wholesale importers and distributors — can examine images, drawings or listings of what you have to offer. If you are a buyer, your web-office can include a notice board listing products or services or agreements you are looking for and a bidding gallery where suppliers can post bids and link you to their sites to examine products. Trading partners can make purchases, send invoices, hold business meetings, track shipments, and work out potential trade agreements within the E-business Cyberspace Station. E-business seminars and conferences will introduce new potential trade partners to each other.
Orders placed on the site are sent immediately to manufacturers and any suppliers integrated into the trade process. For example, established trading partners might include an importer ordering large shipments from a manufacturer and suppliers of parts or raw materials in other countries. By electronically notifying the whole trade net at the same time, each partner is able to trim supply and demand to “just in time” delivery of goods or services. The savings of doing business this way can be substantial — even without the tax advantages.
31. E-business Incorporated can help a company to______.
A. set up a web-office free of charge
B. build a Cybersuite as its domain
C. get its own domain name
D. have its web site accessible via its own domain name
32. In a Cybersuite, a supplier can ______.
A. exhibit its products and services
B. find more images and drawings
C. get many lists of products
D. bid for a certain product or service
33. The passage mainly tells about ______.
A. the benefits brought by e-business
B. how to do e-commerce via Internet
C. a project by WTCA
D. how to find trade partners via Internet
Passage 2
Music which is original is individual and personal. That is to say, it can be identified as belonging to a particular composer. It has particular qualities, or a style, which are not copied from another. If you can recognize the style of a composer, you will probably be able to tell that a certain composition belongs to him or her even though you have never heard it before. A composer organizes his melodies (旋律) and rhythms and combines sounds to create harmony. He may be capable of thinking up very good, original tunes, yet if tunes are poorly organized, the final result will not be to standard.
Good music expresses feelings in a way that is suitable to those feelings. There may be joy, sorrow, fear, love, anger, or whatever. Bad music, on the other hand, may confuse unrelated feelings, it may not express any important feeling at all, or it may exaggerate some feelings and make them vulgar, that is, cheap and ugly.
Good music will stand the test of time. It will not go out of fashion but will continue to be enjoyed and respected long after it is first introduced. It will gain a kind of permanent status while bad music will disappear and be forgotten quickly. In pop music, where the general rule seems to be “the newer the better”, the test of time is the hardest test of all to pass.
34. A piece of original music ______.
A. has a personal style
B. sounds very familiar to our ears
C. is one whose style you cannot recognize
D. cannot be recognized as belonging to any composer
35. Good music is ______.
A. well-organized tunes
B. the proper expression of feelings
C. an expression of mixed feelings
D. exaggeration of some feelings
36. The passage is concerned with ______.
A. how to compose music
B. how to enjoy music
C. how to judge music
D. how to perform music
Passage 3
For some time past it has been widely accepted that babies - and other creatures - learn to do things because certain acts lead to “rewards”; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective reward, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological (生理的) “drives” as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink of some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.
It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.
Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to “reward” the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still go on making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children’s responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement “switched on” a display of lights - and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result, for instance, two left or two right, or even to make as many three turns to one side.
Papousek’s light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would “smile and bubble” when the display came on. Papousek concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the world and bring it under intentional control.
37. According to the author, babies learn to do things which ______.
A. are directly related to pleasure
B. will meet their physical needs
C. will bring them a feeling of success
D. will satisfy their curiosity
38. Papousek noticed in his studies that a baby ______.
A. would make learned responses when it saw the milk
B. would carry out learned movements when it had enough to drink
C. would continue the simple movements without being given milk
D. would turn its head to right or left when it had enough to drink
39. In Papousek’s experiment babies make learned movements of the head in order to______.
A. have the lights turned on B. be rewarded with milk
C. please their parents D. be praised
40. The babies would “smile and bubble” at the lights because ______.
A. the lights were directly related to some basic “drives”
B. the sight of the lights was interesting
C. they need not turn back to watch the lights
D. they succeeded in “switching on” the lights

六、英译汉 (本大题共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面的短文,然后把划线的句子翻译成汉语。

Customer Relationship Management (CRM) provides your company with new ways of better understanding and serving your customer. In July 1998, when Intel began taking orders over the Internet, it also premiered a new Web-based system to deliver confidential documents to its B2B direct customers. (72)
This service, known as Information Desk, along with other new Web-based information delivery services, has enabled the company and its direct, indirect and channel customers to work together more efficiently. In Intel’s case, there were several reasons for deploying CRM, including:
·With Web-based information delivery, everyone can get important information at the same time no matter where they are located.
·(73)
The first release of Intel’s information delivery system slashed document delivery time from as much as two to three weeks to an average of three days. Now, it’s a matter of minutes.
·Extend reach without adding staff. Intel has added services to upwards of 75,000 global resellers.
·(74)
As a result of getting confidential documents faster, three-fourths of Intel’s direct customer engineers shaved a week or more off their product development cycle.
When it came to designing the system, Intel used best-of-breed, off-the-shelf applications and modified them to meet the needs of their customers. Indirect customers received an Electronic Design Kit (EDK) to help develop their own products and solutions.
(75)
And because CRM is a field in which new applications appear frequently, it was important to develop a flexible software architecture and an agile hardware infrastructure. Intel runs its CRM systems on dual and 4-way Intel-based servers, with back-end databases distributed over 8-way Intel-based servers. This gives the company a powerful, flexible and highly available infrastructure.
