5、age or dialog.During the first half of the nineteenth century much thought was given to building the Panama Canal. The discovery of gold in California in 1848 brought an increased demand for a transportation link across Panama. A railroad line was completed after six years of hard labor in the swamp

6、s (沼泽) and jungles. Over two thousand workmen died from yellow fever and malaria (疟疾). In 1881 a French organization tried to build a canal across the Isthmus (巴拿马地峡). For eleven years workmen struggled against heat and disease. At least 15,000 died before the French gave up their attempts to build

7、the canal. For years the abandoned machinery lay in the jungles. At the close of the Spanish-American War the United States bought a strip of land ten miles wide across the Isthmus. Immediate attention was given to the control of diseases. In two years yellow fever was completely eliminated. Because

8、 of the work of American medical heroes, it was possible to build the splendid Panama Canal. 1. Prior to the successful completion of the Panama Canal, _.A.

12、(相似) between their lives and what they see on TV-if they are even able to watch TV. The first difference is that in real life a policeman has been trained in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He will spend most of his w

13、orking life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty-or not-of stupid, petty (不重要的) crimes. Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as hes arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom

14、much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks-where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police-little effort is spent on searching. A third big difference is between the drama detective and the real life ones. Detectives are subject to two

15、opposing pressures: first, as members of a police force they always have to behave with absolute legality (合法); secondly, as expensive public servants they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways. If the detective has to

16、deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simplemindedness-as he sees it-of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead

17、of stamping out crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detectives feel, is that nine-tenths of their time is spent re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical. 6. It is essential for a policeman to

18、be trained in criminal law _.A. so that he can catch criminals in the streetsB. because many of the criminals he has to catch are dangerousC. so that he can justify his arrests in courtD. because he has to know nearly as much about law as a professional lawyer7. The everyday life of a policeman or d

19、etective is _.A. exciting and mysteriousB. full of dangerC. devoted mostly to routine mattersD. wasted on unimportant matters8. When murders and terrorist attacks occur the police _.A. prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself awayB. work hard to track down the criminalsC. try to make a quick

20、arrest in order to keep up their reputationD. usually fail to produce results9. The real detective lives in an unusual moral climate because _.A. he is an expensive public servantB. he must always behave with absolute legalityC. he is obliged to break the law in order to preserve itD. he feels himse

21、lf to be cut off from the rest of the world10. Detectives are rather cynical because _.A. nine-tenths of their work involves arresting peopleB. hardly anyone tells them the truthC. society does not punish criminals severely enoughD. D too many criminals escape from jailQuestions 11 to 15 are based o

22、n the same passage or dialog.During the long vacation I was accepted as a trainee bus conductor. I found the job fiercely demanding even on a short route with a total of about two dozen passengers. I pulled the wrong tickets, forgot the change and wrote up my log (行程记录) at the end of each trip in a

23、way that drew hollow laughter from the inspectors. The inspectors were likely to check at any time. A conductor with twenty years service could be dismissed if an inspector caught him accepting money without pulling a ticket. It was hot that summer: 100 Fahrenheit (华氏) every day. Inside the bus it w

24、as 30 hotter still. It was so jammed inside that my feet werent touching the floor. I couldnt blink (眨眼睛) the sweat out of my eyes. There was no hope of collecting any fares. In these circumstances I was scarcely to blame. I didnt even know where we were, but I guessed we were at the top just before

25、 Market Street. I pressed the bell, the doors closed, and the bus surged forward. There were shouts and yells from down the back, but I thought they were the angry cries of passengers who had not got on. Too late I realized that they were coming from within the bus. The automatic doors at the back o

26、f the bus had closed around an old ladys neck as she was getting on. Her head was inside the bus. The rest of her, carrying a shopping bag was outside. I knew none of this at the time. When I at last signaled the driver to stop, he crashed to a halt and opened the automatic doors. The woman dropped

27、to the road. Unfortunately, the car behind turned out to be full of inspectors. Since it would have made headlines if a university student had almost half-killed a woman of an advanced age, I was given the opportunity to leave quietly. 11.
