二、阅读理解题

Passage One

The civil engineering may work in research which involves duties, emphases, and uses of the

engineer's knowledge and experience. Research is one of the most important aspects of scientific

and engineering practice. A researcher usually works as a member of a team with other scientists and

engineers. He or she is often employed in a laboratory that is financed by government or industry.

Areas of research connected with civil engineering include soil mechanics and soil stabilization

techniques, and also the development and the testing of new structural materials.

21. Research is one of D aspects of scientific and engineering practice.

A. the most useless

B. the most advanced

C. the most unnecessary

D. the most important

22. Aresearcher is often employed C

A. on a farm B. in a library

C. in a laboratory D. in a factory

23. A researcher usually works as a member of a team with C

A. farmers and scientists B. engineers and farmers

C. scientists and engineers D. workers and farmers

24. Which of the following is true D ?

A. Civil engineering research doesn't include the development of new electronics.

B. Civil engineering research doesn't include soil mechanics and soil stabilization.

C. Civil engineering research doesn't include the development of new structural materials.

D. Civil engineering research doesn't only include soil mechanics and soil stabilization,

but also the development of new structural materials.

Passage Two

In civil engineering contract, the employer or promoter of civil engineering works normally

determines the conditions of contract, which define the obligations and performances by some form

of competitive tendering and any contractor who submits a successful tender and subsequently enters

into a contract is deemed in law to have voluntarily accepted the conditions of contract adopted by

the promoter.

The obligations that a contractor accepts when he submits a tender are determined by the form

of the invitation to tender. In most cases the tender may be withdrawn at any time until it has been

accepted and may, even then, be withdrawn if the acceptance is stated by the promoter to be 'subject

to formal contract' as is often the case.

25. From the passage, we can see that the conditions of contract are normally determined By

C .

A. the government official B. the contractor

C. the promoter D. the carrier

26. These conditions of contract define the obligations and performances to which C will

be subject.

A. the employer B. the official C. the contractor D. the manager

27. The obligations that D accepts when he submits a tender are determined by the form

of the invitation to the tender.

A. the employer B. the auditor C. the designer D. the contractor

28. In most cases the tender may be withdrawn at any time until B

A. the promoter has enough money

B. it has been accepted

C. the tender approved by the government

D. achievement has been attained

Passage Three

Selection of excavation equipment depends on the nature of material. Materials are usually

described as 'rock', 'loose rock', or 'common', with 'common' signifying all material not otherwise

classified. Rock, sometimes called 'solid rock', nearly always must be drilled and blasted, then

loaded with a front-end loader or power shovel into trucks or other hauling units. Blasted rock may

be moved or drifted for short distances by means of a bulldozer, which is, in effect, a huge

tractor-mounted blade. Loose rock often is dug with loaders or shovels without any previous

blasting.

29. According to the passage, which material signifying all material is not otherwise classified? B

A. loose rock B. common

C. rock D. solid rock

30. Which of the following is NOT true? D

A. Rock is sometimes called 'solid rock'.

B. Rock nearly always must be drilled and blasted.

C. Rock is usually called 'hard rock'.

D. Rock is sometimes called 'loose rock'.
