Near the end of a five-day tour of highly automated, high-tech Japanese factories, the Ame

rican visitor was overwhelmed and feeling a little inferior. Watching a string of gleaming stereo sets move down an assembly line, he turned to the plant manager and said, "Gosh, even your industrial design is better than ours."

"Ah, yes," replied the manager, "but America has treasures that Japan can never hope to possess."

"You mean our mineral wealth and bountiful farms？"

"All, no. I was referring to Caltech and MIT."

America's scientific institutions-its technological universities and government laboratories-are the envy of the world, producing ideas, devices and medicines that have made the U.S. prosperous, improved the lives of people around the globe and profoundly affected their perception of the world and the universe. This tremendous creativity is reflected in the technical reports that are published in scientific journals throughout the world. Fully 35% of them come from scientists doing their research at American institutions.

Yet American dominance can no longer be taken for granted. Many recent U.S. achievements and awards stem in large measure from generous research grants of the past, and any weakening of government and industry commitment to support of basic research could in the next few decades cost the nation its scientific leadership. Some slipping is already divalent. In high-energy physics, where Americans once reigned supreme, Western Europe now spends roughly twice as much money as the U.S. Result: the major high-energy physics discoveries of the past few years have been made not by Americans but by Europeans.

Even so, money alone cannot guarantee scientific supremacy. Freedom of inquiry, an intellectually stimulating environment and continuous recruitment of the best minds must accompany it. That combination has been achieved in many U.S. institutions-educational, governmental and industrial-but perhaps nowhere more successfully than at the National Institutes of Health, Bell Laboratories and Caltech.

America's technological universities and government laboratories are generally______.

A．loved by scientists in other parts of the world

B．disliked by scientists in other parts of the world

C．admired by scientists in other parts of the world

D．jealous of scientists in other parts of the world

The following trial balance relates to Cavern as at 30 September 2010:The following notes

The following trial balance relates to Cavern as at 30 September 2010:

The following notes are relevant:

(i) Cavern has accounted for a fully subscribed rights issue of equity shares made on 1 April 2010 of one new share for every four in issue at 42 cents each. The company paid ordinary dividends of 3 cents per share on 30 November 2009 and 5 cents per share on 31 May 2010. The dividend payments are included in administrative expenses in the trial balance.

(ii) The 8% loan note was issued on 1 October 2008 at its nominal (face) value of $30 million. The loan note will be redeemed on 30 September 2012 at a premium which gives the loan note an effective fi nance cost of 10% per annum.

(iii) Non-current assets:

Cavern revalues its land and building at the end of each accounting year. At 30 September 2010 the relevant value to be incorporated into the fi nancial statements is $41·8 million. The building’s remaining life at the beginning of the current year (1 October 2009) was 18 years. Cavern does not make an annual transfer from the revaluation reserve to retained earnings in respect of the realisation of the revaluation surplus. Ignore deferred tax on the revaluation surplus.

Plant and equipment includes an item of plant bought for $10 million on 1 October 2009 that will have a 10-year life (using straight-line depreciation with no residual value). Production using this plant involves toxic chemicals which will cause decontamination costs to be incurred at the end of its life. The present value of these costs using a discount rate of 10% at 1 October 2009 was $4 million. Cavern has not provided any amount for this future decontamination cost. All other plant and equipment is depreciated at 12·5% per annum using the reducing balance method.

No depreciation has yet been charged on any non-current asset for the year ended 30 September 2010. All depreciation is charged to cost of sales.

(iv) The available-for-sale investments held at 30 September 2010 had a fair value of $13·5 million. There were no acquisitions or disposals of these investments during the year ended 30 September 2010.

(v) A provision for income tax for the year ended 30 September 2010 of $5·6 million is required. The balance on current tax represents the under/over provision of the tax liability for the year ended 30 September 2009. At 30 September 2010 the tax base of Cavern’s net assets was $15 million less than their carrying amounts. The movement on deferred tax should be taken to the income statement. The income tax rate of Cavern is 25%.

Required:

(a) Prepare the statement of comprehensive income for Cavern for the year ended 30 September 2010.

(b) Prepare the statement of changes in equity for Cavern for the year ended 30 September 2010.

(c) Prepare the statement of fi nancial position of Cavern as at 30 September 2010.

Notes to the fi nancial statements are not required.

The following mark allocation is provided as guidance for this question:

(a) 11 marks

(b) 5 marks

(c) 9 marks

听力原文：A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable fi

听力原文： A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and on glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modem newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality, its immediate relation to what is happening in your world end your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day's paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill end self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.

(30)

A．Uniform. style.

B．Wide coverage.

C．Speed in reporting news.

D．Popularity.

Deep inside a mountain near Sweatwater in East Tennessee is a body of water known as the L
ost Sea. It is listed by the "Guinness Book of World Records" as the world's largest underground lake. The lost Sea is part of an extensive and historical cave system called Craighead Caverns.

The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian Nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called "the Council Room", many Indian artifacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons and jewelry.

For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.

Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.

According to the passage, the lost Sea is unique because it is ______.

A．part of a historical cave system

B．the biggest underground lake in the world

C．listed in the "Guinness Book of World Records"

D．the largest body of water in Tennessee

Flats were almost unknown in Britain until the 1850s when they were developed, along with
other industrial dwellings, for the labouring classes. These vast blocks were plainly a 【C1】______ means of 【C2】______ social conscience by housing large numbers of the ever-present poor on 【C3】______ city sites.

In Paris and other major European cities, the custom whereby the better-off lived in apartments, or flats, was well【C8】______ .

第10题

Whatever their chosen method, Americans bathe zealously. A study conducted found that we t
ake an average of 4. 5 baths and 7.5 showers each week and in the ranks of non edible items purchased by store customers, bar soap ranks second, right after toilet paper. We spend more than $ 700 million annually on soaps, but all work the same way. Soap is composed of molecules that at one end attract water and at the other end attract oil and dirt, while repelling water. With a kind of pushing and pulling action, the soap loosens the bonds holding dirt to the skin.

Unless you're using a germicidal soap, it usually doesn't kill the bacteria soap simply removes bacteria along with dirt and oil. Neither baths nor showers are all that necessary and unless you're in a Third World country where infectious diseases are common, or you have open sores on your skin, the dirt and bacteria aren't going to hurt. The only reason for showering or bathing is to feel clean and refreshed. There is a physiological basis for this relaxed feeling. Your limbs become slightly buoyant in bathwater, which takes a load off muscles and tension. Moreover, if the water is hotter than normal body temperature, the body attempts to shed heat by expanding the blood vessels near the surface of the skin, lessening the circulatory system's resistance to blood flow, and dropping blood pres sure gently. A bath is also the most effective way to hydrate the skin. The longer you soak, the more water gets into the skin and because soap lowers the surface tension of the water, it helps you hydrate rapidly and remove dry skin flakes.

However, in a bath, all the dirt and grime and the soap in which it's suspended float on the surface. So when you stand up, it covers your body like a film. The real solution is to take a bath and then rinse off with a shower, however, after leaving a tub or freshly ex posed skin becomes a playground for microbes. In two hours, you probably have as many bacteria on certain parts of the body, such as the armpits, as before the bath.

The statement "Americans bathe zealously" (Line 1, Para. 1) is closest to saying.

A．Americans bathe wastefully

B．Americans are rather ambivalent to bathing

C．Americans bathe with intense enthusiasm

D．Americans bathe too much

听力原文： Today when a man steps on to the moon, or something new and important happens, t
he world learns about it immediately. What did the newspapers say about that first flight in 19037 Strangely enough, they said hardly anything about it at all. There were only a few reports about it in the papers. These reports said very little. Some of the things they said were not even correct. In 1904, the Wrights built a second machine. They called it Flyer No. 2. They invited some reporters to a field near Dayton to watch them fly. Unfortunately, there was some mechanical trouble with the plane and it did not fly at all that day. The reporters went away. They were disappointed and did not come back. The Wrights went on with their work. In 1905, they built an even better machine, Flyer No. 3. They were able to stay up in the air for half an hour and more in this machine. They were able to turn and climb in the air. Farmers, travelers on the roads around Dayton often saw them flying. But when these people told reporters about it, they refused to believe them.

The Wrights offered Flyer No. 3 to the United States Government. The Government was not interested. They seemed to think the Wrights wanted money in order to build an airplane. They did not understand the Wrights had already done this, and flown it as well. Experts were still saying that mechanical flight was impossible. At the end of 1905, the two brothers took their plane to pieces. The parts were put into a huge wooden case. It seemed nobody was interested.

(30)

A．They were able to fly it in the air.

B．They were able to stay up in the air for half an hour and more in the machine.

C．They were able to carry travelers.

D．They were able to fly in around Dayton.
