Ⅱ.认真阅读下面两篇短文，每篇短文后有五个问题。根据短文的内容从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案，并填在答题纸相应的位置上。（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）
Passage 1
Drugs have become a political obsession(困扰) this election year. The House recently passed a bill that would impose a federal death penalty for drug-related murder. The House bill also calls for widespread mandatory drug testing and would permit the use of illegally gathered evidence in criminal trials. The Senate(参议院) is considering ways to bring the House bill to a quick vote, without going through the normally lengthy committee process.
Every politician is eager, it seems, to cast a tough antidrug vote before the election in November. It’s as if politicians feel they have to come up with some new and severe measure that hasn’t been tried before, in the hopes it will make the drug problem disappear. The death penalty for drug pushers or those who commit drug-related murders seems to be the favorite of conservatives this year. Now, a handful of liberals have come up with a radical approach at the other extreme: decriminalize drug use in the hopes that it will take the profit out of drug sales.
There aren’t any easy answers to the drug problem in America. And election years certainly aren’t conducive(有益于) to discussions of the hard truth of drug use. Drug dealers push their wares because there is a market for them in this country. Legalizing drugs won’t affect that market and, arguably, might increase it by removing the penalties.
Nancy Reagan was strongly criticized when she proposed a program to “just say ‘no’ to drugs.” But is there really any other answer? Americans are going to have to face up to some hard questions about ourselves and our values if we’re really going to eliminate drugs. Most of us, unfortunately, would rather talk tough or redefine the problem.

31．Which proposal was included in the House bill on drugs?
A．to punish drug-related murderers by death
B．to prohibit the use of drugs in any situation
C．to make mandatory drug testing illegal
D．to refuse to use illegally gathered evidence in criminal trials
32．What is the Senate trying to do?
A．fight the House bill
B．put forward another proposal
C．speed up the voting process
D．establish a committee before the vote
33．What are politicians eager to do, according to the author?
A．change their constituents’(选民)minds about drugs
B．delay a decision on the drug problem until November
C．find a way to make the drug problem disappear
D．limit the drug problem to a certain group of people
34．According to the author, what will happen to the drug market if we legalize drugs?
A．The hard truth about drugs will finally be faced.
B．Drug dealers won’t be able to sell drugs so easily.
C．Pushers may make more money.
D．It would benefit those who take drugs.
35．How do most Americans deal with the drug problem?
A．They generally support the “just say no”drug policy.
B．They would not touch drugs.
C．They really try to face the drug problem.
D．They only talk about it.
Passage 2
   Men seem to have always taken an interest in meteorites(陨石),but not until the early nineteenth century were these objects considered worth preserving for scientific study.
   In the beginning people believed that because meteorites fell from the heavens, they were either gods themselves or messengers from the gods. Thus the more civilized of early men carefully kept the meteorites, covering them with costly linens and printing them with oil. In many instances, the people built special temples in which the meteorites were to
