　　II. Reading comprehension: (2× 10=20)

　　Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.

　　(1)

　　In Britain arrangements for inviting and entertaining guests at a wedding are usually the responsibility of the bride's family. In most cases it is mainly friends and relations of both families who are invited. But when the bride's father is a businessman of some kind, the wedding reception may provide a useful occasion for establishing social connections with clients or customers and other people whose goodwill may be of advantage to him. It is, however, the bride's mother who has the job of sending out the formal printed invitation cards.

　　In the case of a church wedding, the vicar of each parish in which the bride and bridegroom live is normally informed about a month in advance of the ceremony so that an announcement of the coming wedding can be made in church on each of three Sundays before it takes place. Anyone who may know of an existing marriage of either partner is ordered to give information about it, through this means of avoiding bigamy (重婚) must have been more effective in the days when people moved about the world less than they do today. Often up to a hundred or more people attend the religious service and the bride usually wears the traditional long white dress and veil, while her bridesmaids, who are often children, wear long dresses in attractive colors. This may also happen in the case of a civil wedding in a register office but is probably less usual.

　　The reception which follows may be held in a restaurant, a local hall or, when there are few guests, in the bride's own home. Refreshments are provided, a special iced wedding-cake is cut usually to the accompaniment of speeches and distributed to the guests, toasts are drunk and dancing may follow. At some point in the celebrations, the bride goes off to change into everyday clothes and then leaves the party with her husband to go on their honeymoon, the journey they will make together, often in romantic surroundings abroad.

　　16. According to the passage some guests may be invited because ______.

　　A. their presence is a great honor to the family

　　B. their presence may provide future benefits

　　C. they can bring more goodwill to the family

　　D. they can make the wedding more sociable

　　17. Which of the following statement is NOT true?

　　A. Guests are invited for different reasons.

　　B, The bride's family is in charge of preparing the wedding.

　　C. Any illegal marriage will be stopped by the church.

　　D. The bride's mother decides the name list of guests.

　　18. The reason the vicar is informed in advance of the ceremony is that ______.

　　A. the bride's family can make sure that all the guests are informed

　　B. people can ensure a thorough investigation of a lawful marriage

　　C. the coming wedding can be announced time and again

　　D. it leaves more time for the bride's family to arrange the wedding

　　19. Which of the following statements may NOT be inferred from the passage?

　　A. A civil wedding is not as romantic as a church wedding.

　　B. Sometimes the reception is held in the bride's home.

　　C. A church wedding is usually attended by many people.

　　D. The bride in a civil wedding often wears the white dress and veil.

　　20. When do the couple leave for their honeymoon?

　　A. Soon after the wedding ceremony.

　　B. Near the end of the reception.

　　C. In the course of the reception.

　　D. After the drinking and dancing.

　　The discovery of the Antarctic not only proved one of the most interesting of all geographical adventures, but created what might be called 'the heroic age of Antarctic exploration'. By their tremendous heroism, men such as Shakleton, Scott, and Amundsen caused a new continent to emerge from the shadows, and yet that heroic age, little more than a century old, is already passing. Modern science and inventions are revolutionizing the endurance. Future journeys into these icy wastes will probably depend on motor vehicles equipped with caterpillar traction rather than on the dogs that earlier discoverers found so invaluable and hardly comparable.

　　Few realize that this Antarctic continent is almost equal in size to South America, and enormous field of work awaits geographers and prospectors. The coasts of this continent remain to be accurately charted, and the mapping of the whole of the interior presents a formidable task to the cartographers who undertake the work. Once their labors are completed, it will be possible to prospect the vast natural resources which scientists believe will furnish one of the largest treasure hoards of metals and minerals the world has yet known, and almost inexhaustible sources of copper, coal, uranium, and many other ores will become available to man. Such discoveries will usher in an era of practical exploitation of the Antarctic wastes.

　　The polar darkness which hides this continent for the six winter months will be defeated by huge batteries of light, and make possible the establishing of air-fields for the future inter-continental air services by making these areas as light as day. Present flying routes will be completely changed, for the Antarctic refueling bases will make flights from Australia to South America comparatively easy over the 5,000 miles journey.

　　The climate is not likely to offer an unsolvable problem, for the explorer Admiral Byrd has shown that the climate is possible even for men completely untrained for expeditions into those

　　frozen wastes. Some of his parties were men who had never seen snow before, and yet he records

　　that they survived the rigors of the Antarctic climate comfortably, so that, provided that the appropriate installations are made, we may assume that human beings from all countries could live there safely. Byrd even affirms that it is probably the most healthy climate in the world, for the intense cold of thousands of years has sterilized this continent, and rendered it absolutely germfree, with the consequences that ordinary and extraordinary sickness and diseases from which man suffers in other zones with different climates are here utterly unknown. There exist no problems of conservation and preservation of food supplies, for the latter keep indefinitely without any signs of deterioration; it may even be that later generations will come to regard the Antarctic as the natural storehouse for the whole world.

　　Plans are already on foot to set up permanent bases on the shores of this continent, and what so few years ago was regarded as a 'dead continent' now promises to be a most active center of human life and endeavor.

　　21. What kind of metals and minerals can we find in the Antarctic?

　　A. Magnetite, coal and ores. B. Copper, coal and uranium.
