The economic news from Europe was particularly disappointing
in the second half of 2002. Moreover, recent surveys from
the region imply little prospect of improvement in the near
future. Perhaps the most worrying aspect has been the sharp
decline in conditions in Germany-the area's largest and most
important economy. Domestic demand in Germany is very weak
and, with the global economy also struggling, Germany's
manufacturers have not been able to export their way out of
trouble as they have done in the past. With the economy in
such a weak state, it is no surprise then that European
stock markets have followed the US stock markets' downturn
over the past 6 months. While individual share pries may be
lower and market valuations look attractive, the economy
does not. Recovery seems some way off and strong equity
performance from Europe's markets seems unlikely in 2003.
81. We understand from the passage that the
economic prospects in the current year for the European
stock markets __________.
a) are not foreseeable
b) are certainly promising
c) are constantly under discussion
d) seem most encouraging
e) don't look hopeful
82. It is pointed out in the passage that the
present economic recession in Germany __________.
a) is actually not as serious as is being
experienced in several other European countries
b) is being overcome by means of increased exports
c) is more persistent than previous ones have been
d) should have been foreseen much earlier
e) has been exaggerated in several surveys recently
83. The passage points out that Germany's current
economic problems __________.
a) have left the stock markets of Europe
unaffected
b) have led to a worrying decline in the world
economy
c) are far serious than those of any other country
in Europe
d) stem in part from a drop in domestic sales
e) are in fact not as alarming as they were once
thought to be
84. According to the passage, the trend in
European stock markets __________.
a) does not reflect the economic situation in
Germany
b) has been roughly the same as that in the US stock
markets
c) improved greatly during the last six months of
2002
d) is related to the level of domestic demand in
Germany
e) seems to change every six months
85. The phrase "to export their way out of
trouble" means __________.
a) to expand their market capacity through more
exports
b) to find trouble-free markets for exports
c) to work extremely hard to increase their exports
d) to put and end to the slump
e) to get out of the recession through increased
exports

Scientist who study earth's moon have two big
regrets about the six Apollo missions that landed a
dozen astronauts on the lunar surface between 1969
and 1972. The biggest regret, of course, is that the
emissions ended so abruptly, with so much of the
moon still unexplored. But researchers also lament
that the great triumph of Apollo led to a popular
misconception: because astronauts have visited the
moon, there is no compelling reason to go back. In
the 1990s, however, two probes that orbited the moon
raised new questions about Earth's airless satellite.
One stunning discovery was strong evidence of water
ice in the perpetually shadowed areas near the
moon's poles. Because scientists believe that comets
deposited water and organic compounds on both Earth
and its moon, well-preserved ice at the lunar poles
could yield clues to the origins of life.
86.
The point made in the passage is that it may be
possible to __________.
a) come to a better understanding of comets
through the study of the moon
b) learn more about the beginnings of life from the
ice at the moon's poles
c) resume Apollo missions as there is evidence of
water on the moon
d) identify the origin of the organic compounds
found on the moon
e) have a full knowledge of the moon without sending
anymore astronauts there
87. As is pointed out in the passage, one
significant outcome of the lunar probes in the 1990s
was __________.
a) the staggering finding of evidence of water
on the moon
b) the focussing of scientific attention on the
comets
c) the resumption of lunar missions
d) the realization that life is possible on the moon
e) the realization that there were great
similarities between earth and moon
88. According to the passage, even through there
were six Apollo missions to the moon roughly thirty
years ago, __________.
a) none of them could claim to be successful
b) man's knowledge of the moon has not increased at
all
c) a very large proportion of the lunar surface
remains to date unexamined
d) it was only the lunar poles that were explored
fully
e) the idea of sending astronauts back to the moon
seems even more far-fetched than formerly
89. As we understand from the passage, a great
many people __________.
a) believe lunar missions should continue
indefinitely
b) regard the Apollo missions as a scientific
breakthrough
c) are sure the moon cannot support life
d) feel that the very fact that man has landed on
the moon is enough
e) regard scientific investigations of the moon as
unfeasible
90. A major point made in the passage is that
__________.
a) comets hold the secrets of the origins of
life in the universe
b) the six Apollo missions to the moon were a great
scientific success
c) the chances of finding water on the moon are very
slim
d) the probes of the 1990s demonstrated that the
lunar landings should have continued
e) scientists are agreed that there is nothing
further to learn about the moon
