Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes )
Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them the re are four choices marked A)，B)，C) and D). you should dicide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial insitutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substanitial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.
It's easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.
Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it's disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, no t by systematic10 inspections11 or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may been the victims of uncommonly12 bad luck.
For example, a certain keypunch(键盘打孔) operator complained of having to stay overtime13 to punch extra cards. Investigation14 revealed that the extra cards s he was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off(向……透露) the company that was being robbed.
Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.
Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity15 that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused16. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled(耍弄 ) the most confidential17 records right under the noses of the company's executives, a ccountants , and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.
21. It can be concluded from the passage that __________.
A) it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today
B) computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial in
stitutions
C) computer criminals can escape punishment because they can't be detected
D) people commit computer crimes at the request their company
22. It is implied in the third paragraph that __________.
A) many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered
B) the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problem
C) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimes
D) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their bad luck
23. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
A) A strict law against computer crimes must be enforced.
B) Companies need to impose restrictions18 on confidential information.
C) Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation
D) Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes.
24. What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?
A) With a bad reputation they can hardly find another job.
B) They will be denied access to confidential records.
C) They may walk away and easily find another job.
D) They must leave the country or go to jail.
25. The passage is mainly about __________.
A) why computer crimes are difficult to detect by systematic inspections.
B) why computer criminals are often able to escape punishment
C) how computer criminals manage to get good recommendation from their former
employers
D) why computer crimes can't be eliminated
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
It is often claimed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without. W e live in a consumer society where there is an enormous demand for commercial products of all kinds. Moreover, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment. Such an increase presumes an abundant and cheap energy supply. Many people believe that nuclear energy provides an inexhaustible and economical source of power and that it is therefore essential for an industrially developing society. There are a number of other advantages in the use of nuclear energy. Firstly, nuclear power, except for accidents, is clean. A further advantage is that a nuclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively19 few technical and administrative20 staff. The nuclear reactor21 represents an enormous step in our scientific evolution and, whatever the anti?nuclear group says, it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive22 sources of fuel. However, opponents of nuclear energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct threat not only to the environment but also to civil liberties.
Furthermore, it is questionable23 whether ultimately nuclear power is a cheap source of energy. There have, for example, been very costly24 accidents in America , in Britain and, of course, in Russia. The possibility of increases in the cost of uranium(铀) in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions could p rice nuclear power out of the market. In the long run, environmentalists argue, nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent which could bring about the destruction of the human race. Thus, if we wish to survive, we cannot afford nuclear energy. In spite of the case against nuclear energy outlined above, nuclear energy programmes are expanding. Such an expansion assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands. However, it is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue. Having weighed up the arguments on both sides, it seems there are good economic and ecological25 reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power.
26. The writer's attitude toward nuclear energy is __________.
A) indifferent B) favorable C) tolerant D) negative
27. According to the opponents of nuclear energy, which of the following is true of
nuclear energy?
A) Primitive B) Exhaustible C) Cheap D) Unsafe
28. Some people claim that nuclear energy is essential because __________ .
A) it provides a perfect solution to mass unemployment
B) it represents an enormous step forward in our scientific evolution
C) it can meet the growing demand of an industrially developing society
D) nuclear power stations can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and
administrative staff
29. Which of the following statements does the writer support?
A) The demand for commercial products will not necessarily keep increasing.
B) Nuclear energy is something we cannot do without.
C) Uranium is a good source of energy for economic and ecological reasons.
D) Greater safety provisions can bring about the expansion of nuclear energy
programmes.
30. The function of the last sentence is to __________.
A) advance the final argument.
B) reflect the writer's attitude.
C) reverse previously26 expressed thoughts.
D) show the disadvantages of nuclear power.
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer's background, personality, status, mood, and social outlook.
Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to manipulate people's impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle?class man or woman may be alienated(疏远……) by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person's education, background, or interests.
People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits(套装), including the number of boyfriends they likely have had and whether they smoke or d rink. Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And collage27 students who view themselves as taking an active role in their inter5 personal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we act ed. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you anticipated a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.
In the workplace, men have long had well?defined precedents29 and role models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of "masculine" an d "feminine" attributes they should convey by their professional clothing. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that avail able for men. Male administrators31 tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" grooming(打扮)-shorter hair, moderate use of make?up, and plain tailored clothing. As one male administrator30 confessed, "An attractive woman is definitely going to get a longer interview, but she won't get a job."
31. According to the passage, the way we dress __________.
A) provides clues for people who are critical of us
B) indicates our likes and dislikes in choosing a career
C) has a direct influence on the way people regard us
D) is of particular importance when we get on in age
32. From the third paragraph of the passage, we can conclude that young adults t end to
believe that certain types of clothing can __________.
A) change people's conservative attitudes toward their lifestyle
B) help young people make friends with the opposite sex
C) make them competitive in the job market
D) help them achieve success in their interpersonal relationships
33. The word "precedent28" (Line 1, Para.4) probably refers to __________ .
A) early acts for men to follow as examples
B) particular places for men to occupy especially because of their importance
C) things that men should agree upon
D) men's beliefs that everything in the world has already been decided32
34. According to the passage, many career women find themselves in difficult situations
because __________.
A) the variety of professional clothing is too wide for them to choose
B) women are generally thought to be only good at being fashion models
C) men are more favorably judged for managerial positions
D) they are not sure to what extent they should display their feminine qualities
through clothing
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A) Dressing33 for effect. B) How to dress appropriately.
C) Managerial positions and clothing. D) Dressing for the occasion.
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
The more women and minorities make their way into the ranks of management, t he more they seem to want to talk about things formerly34 judged to be best left unsaid. The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye, in the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyones experience in the organization.
Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead. Coleman is black. He spent 11 years with IBM, half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant35 to the likes of AT&T, Co ca?Cola, Prudential, and Merch. Coleman says that based on what he's seen at bi g companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long?term career success as follows: performance counts a mere36 10%, image, 30%; and exposure, a full 60%. Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won't secure you the big promotion37. He finds that advancement38 more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.
Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who, like Coleman, feel that the scales(障眼物) have dropped fro m their eyes. "Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs," says Kaleel Jamison, a New York?based management consultant who helps corporation s deal with these issues. "They think that if you work hard, you'll get ahead-t hat someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion." She adds, "Most women and blacks are so frightened that people will think they've gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down(使不突出) their visibility." Her advice to those folks: learn the ways that white males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight39.
36. According to the passage, "things formerly judged to be best left un said" (Line 2,
Para.1) probably refers to "__________".
A) criticisms that shape everyone's experience
B) the opinions which contradict the established beliefs
C) the tendencies that help the newcomers to see office matters with a fresh eye
D) the ideas which usually come up with usually come up with new ways of management
in the organization
37. To achieve success in your career, the most important factor, accordi ng to the
passage, is to __________.
A) let your superiors know how good you are

C) work as a consultant to your superiors
D) perform well your tasks given by your superiors

A) know that someone in authority will reach down and give them a promotion
B) want to give people the impression that they work under false beliefs
C) don't want people to think that their promotions40 were due to sex or color
D) believe they can get promoted by reason of their sex or color
39. The author is of the opinion that Coleman's beliefs are __________ .

Part Ⅳ Short Answer Questions (15 minutes )
Directions: In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
Joe Templer should have known better: after all, he works for a large auto69? insurance company. It won't hurt to leave the key in the truck this once, he thought, as he filled his gas tank at a self?service gas station. But moments latte r as he was paying the money he saw the truck being driven away.
In 1987,1.6 million motor vehicles were stolen in the United States-one every 20 seconds. If current trends continue, experts predict annual vehicle thefts could exceed two million by the end of the decade.
Vehicle theft is a common phenomenon, which has a direct impact on over four million victims a year. The cost is astonishing.
Many police officials blame professional thieves for the high volume of thefts. It is a major money?maker70 for organized crime. Typically, stolen cars are taken to pieces and the parts sold to individuals. But as many as 200,000 cars a re smuggled71 out of the country every year. Most go to Latin America, the Middle East and Europe.
Only about 15 percent car thefts result in an arrest, because few police departments routinely conduct in?depth auto?investigations72. When thieves are arrested, judges will often sentence them to probation(缓刑), not immediately put them in prison because the prisons are overcrowded with violent criminals.
One exception is a Michigan program that assigns 92 police officers to work full?time on the state's 65,000 car theft cases a year. Since 1986, when the effort began, the state's auto?theft rate has fallen from second in the nation to ninth.
How can you protect your car? If you live in a high?theft area or drive an expensive model, consider a security system. It may cost anywhere from $25 to $1, 000. Some systems engage automatically?simply removing the key disables the fuel pump and the starter. When cars are equipped with such systems, t hefts may drop by one?third. In some states, you may be able to use a device that transmits radio signals, allowing stolen cars to be tracked by police.
Questions:
71. What is the passage mainly about?
_______________________________________________.
72. What does the author think Joe Templer should be blamed for?
_______________________________________________.
73. How serious did the author predict the annual vehicle theft could in the United
States in 1989?
_______________________________________________.
74. What are the two ways thieves sell the stolen cars?
_______________________________________________.
75. What type of security system can help the police track down a stolen car?
_______________________________________________.

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes )
Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them the re are four choices marked A)，B)，C) and D). you should dicide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
More and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial insitutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substanitial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.
It's easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.
Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it's disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, no t by systematic10 inspections11 or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may been the victims of uncommonly12 bad luck.
For example, a certain keypunch(键盘打孔) operator complained of having to stay overtime13 to punch extra cards. Investigation14 revealed that the extra cards s he was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off(向……透露) the company that was being robbed.
Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.
Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity15 that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused16. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled(耍弄 ) the most confidential17 records right under the noses of the company's executives, a ccountants , and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.
21. It can be concluded from the passage that __________.
A) it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today
B) computer crimes are the most serious problem in the operation of financial in
stitutions
C) computer criminals can escape punishment because they can't be detected
D) people commit computer crimes at the request their company
22. It is implied in the third paragraph that __________.
A) many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered
B) the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problem
C) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimes
D) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their bad luck
23. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
A) A strict law against computer crimes must be enforced.
B) Companies need to impose restrictions18 on confidential information.
C) Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation
D) Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes.
24. What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?
A) With a bad reputation they can hardly find another job.
B) They will be denied access to confidential records.
C) They may walk away and easily find another job.
D) They must leave the country or go to jail.
25. The passage is mainly about __________.
A) why computer crimes are difficult to detect by systematic inspections.
B) why computer criminals are often able to escape punishment
C) how computer criminals manage to get good recommendation from their former
employers
D) why computer crimes can't be eliminated
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
It is often claimed that nuclear energy is something we cannot do without. W e live in a consumer society where there is an enormous demand for commercial products of all kinds. Moreover, an increase in industrial production is considered to be one solution to the problem of mass unemployment. Such an increase presumes an abundant and cheap energy supply. Many people believe that nuclear energy provides an inexhaustible and economical source of power and that it is therefore essential for an industrially developing society. There are a number of other advantages in the use of nuclear energy. Firstly, nuclear power, except for accidents, is clean. A further advantage is that a nuclear power station can be run and maintained by relatively19 few technical and administrative20 staff. The nuclear reactor21 represents an enormous step in our scientific evolution and, whatever the anti?nuclear group says, it is wrong to expect a return to more primitive22 sources of fuel. However, opponents of nuclear energy point out that nuclear power stations bring a direct threat not only to the environment but also to civil liberties.
Furthermore, it is questionable23 whether ultimately nuclear power is a cheap source of energy. There have, for example, been very costly24 accidents in America , in Britain and, of course, in Russia. The possibility of increases in the cost of uranium(铀) in addition to the cost of greater safety provisions could p rice nuclear power out of the market. In the long run, environmentalists argue, nuclear energy wastes valuable resources and disturbs the ecology to an extent which could bring about the destruction of the human race. Thus, if we wish to survive, we cannot afford nuclear energy. In spite of the case against nuclear energy outlined above, nuclear energy programmes are expanding. Such an expansion assumes a continual growth in industrial production and consumer demands. However, it is doubtful whether this growth will or can continue. Having weighed up the arguments on both sides, it seems there are good economic and ecological25 reasons for sources of energy other than nuclear power.
26. The writer's attitude toward nuclear energy is __________.
A) indifferent B) favorable C) tolerant D) negative
27. According to the opponents of nuclear energy, which of the following is true of
nuclear energy?
A) Primitive B) Exhaustible C) Cheap D) Unsafe
28. Some people claim that nuclear energy is essential because __________ .
A) it provides a perfect solution to mass unemployment
B) it represents an enormous step forward in our scientific evolution
C) it can meet the growing demand of an industrially developing society
D) nuclear power stations can be run and maintained by relatively few technical and
administrative staff
29. Which of the following statements does the writer support?
A) The demand for commercial products will not necessarily keep increasing.
B) Nuclear energy is something we cannot do without.
C) Uranium is a good source of energy for economic and ecological reasons.
D) Greater safety provisions can bring about the expansion of nuclear energy
programmes.
30. The function of the last sentence is to __________.
A) advance the final argument.
B) reflect the writer's attitude.
C) reverse previously26 expressed thoughts.
D) show the disadvantages of nuclear power.
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer's background, personality, status, mood, and social outlook.
Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to manipulate people's impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle?class man or woman may be alienated(疏远……) by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person's education, background, or interests.
People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits(套装), including the number of boyfriends they likely have had and whether they smoke or d rink. Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And collage27 students who view themselves as taking an active role in their inter5 personal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we act ed. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you anticipated a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.
In the workplace, men have long had well?defined precedents29 and role models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of "masculine" an d "feminine" attributes they should convey by their professional clothing. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that avail able for men. Male administrators31 tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" grooming(打扮)-shorter hair, moderate use of make?up, and plain tailored clothing. As one male administrator30 confessed, "An attractive woman is definitely going to get a longer interview, but she won't get a job."
31. According to the passage, the way we dress __________.
A) provides clues for people who are critical of us
B) indicates our likes and dislikes in choosing a career
C) has a direct influence on the way people regard us
D) is of particular importance when we get on in age
32. From the third paragraph of the passage, we can conclude that young adults t end to
believe that certain types of clothing can __________.
A) change people's conservative attitudes toward their lifestyle
B) help young people make friends with the opposite sex
C) make them competitive in the job market
D) help them achieve success in their interpersonal relationships
33. The word "precedent28" (Line 1, Para.4) probably refers to __________ .
A) early acts for men to follow as examples
B) particular places for men to occupy especially because of their importance
C) things that men should agree upon
D) men's beliefs that everything in the world has already been decided32
34. According to the passage, many career women find themselves in difficult situations
because __________.
A) the variety of professional clothing is too wide for them to choose
B) women are generally thought to be only good at being fashion models
C) men are more favorably judged for managerial positions
D) they are not sure to what extent they should display their feminine qualities
through clothing
35. What is the passage mainly about?
A) Dressing33 for effect. B) How to dress appropriately.
C) Managerial positions and clothing. D) Dressing for the occasion.
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
The more women and minorities make their way into the ranks of management, t he more they seem to want to talk about things formerly34 judged to be best left unsaid. The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye, in the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyones experience in the organization.
Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead. Coleman is black. He spent 11 years with IBM, half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant35 to the likes of AT&T, Co ca?Cola, Prudential, and Merch. Coleman says that based on what he's seen at bi g companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long?term career success as follows: performance counts a mere36 10%, image, 30%; and exposure, a full 60%. Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won't secure you the big promotion37. He finds that advancement38 more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.
Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who, like Coleman, feel that the scales(障眼物) have dropped fro m their eyes. "Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs," says Kaleel Jamison, a New York?based management consultant who helps corporation s deal with these issues. "They think that if you work hard, you'll get ahead-t hat someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion." She adds, "Most women and blacks are so frightened that people will think they've gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down(使不突出) their visibility." Her advice to those folks: learn the ways that white males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight39.
36. According to the passage, "things formerly judged to be best left un said" (Line 2,
Para.1) probably refers to "__________".
A) criticisms that shape everyone's experience
B) the opinions which contradict the established beliefs
C) the tendencies that help the newcomers to see office matters with a fresh eye
D) the ideas which usually come up with usually come up with new ways of management
in the organization

C) don't want people to think that their promotions40 were due to sex or color
D) believe they can get promoted by reason of their sex or color

Part Ⅳ Short Answer Questions (15 minutes )
Directions: In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
Joe Templer should have known better: after all, he works for a large auto69? insurance company. It won't hurt to leave the key in the truck this once, he thought, as he filled his gas tank at a self?service gas station. But moments latte r as he was paying the money he saw the truck being driven away.
In 1987,1.6 million motor vehicles were stolen in the United States-one every 20 seconds. If current trends continue, experts predict annual vehicle thefts could exceed two million by the end of the decade.
Vehicle theft is a common phenomenon, which has a direct impact on over four million victims a year. The cost is astonishing.
Many police officials blame professional thieves for the high volume of thefts. It is a major money?maker70 for organized crime. Typically, stolen cars are taken to pieces and the parts sold to individuals. But as many as 200,000 cars a re smuggled71 out of the country every year. Most go to Latin America, the Middle East and Europe.
Only about 15 percent car thefts result in an arrest, because few police departments routinely conduct in?depth auto?investigations72. When thieves are arrested, judges will often sentence them to probation(缓刑), not immediately put them in prison because the prisons are overcrowded with violent criminals.
One exception is a Michigan program that assigns 92 police officers to work full?time on the state's 65,000 car theft cases a year. Since 1986, when the effort began, the state's auto?theft rate has fallen from second in the nation to ninth.
How can you protect your car? If you live in a high?theft area or drive an expensive model, consider a security system. It may cost anywhere from $25 to $1, 000. Some systems engage automatically?simply removing the key disables the fuel pump and the starter. When cars are equipped with such systems, t hefts may drop by one?third. In some states, you may be able to use a device that transmits radio signals, allowing stolen cars to be tracked by police.
Questions:
71. What is the passage mainly about?
_______________________________________________.
72. What does the author think Joe Templer should be blamed for?
_______________________________________________.
73. How serious did the author predict the annual vehicle theft could in the United
States in 1989?
_______________________________________________.
74. What are the two ways thieves sell the stolen cars?
_______________________________________________.
75. What type of security system can help the police track down a stolen car?
