House-price falls are gathering momentum and are spreading across the UK, according to a m

onthly poll of surveyors which on Monday delivered its gloomiest reading for nearly 12 years.

Fifty-six percent of surveyors contacted by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors reported price falls in the three months to October. Only 3 percent saw prices rise in their area, compared with 58 percent as recently as May.

There was further evidence of slowing activity in the property market as the number of sales per surveyor dived to a nine-year low. Unsold stock on agents' books has increased 10 percent since the summer. Ian Perry, Rics' national housing spokesman, said it was now very clear that buyers were unsettled by higher interest rates.

The Bank of England raised rates five times to 4.75 percent over the last year to cool the property boom.

But he also blamed comments by Mervyn King, the Bank's governor, and misleading media headlines for "injecting additional uncertainty into the market by continued speculation over more serious price declines".

"Mervyn King presumably felt that he had to be more explicit in the summer when people were still buying. His warnings of a drop in property prices then have had the desired effect.

"But our concern now is that the pendulum is swinging too far", be said.

Last week, the Bank's monetary policy committee predicted for the first time that "house prices may fall modestly for a period" in its November inflation report. The Nationwide and Halifax mortgage lenders both showed a modest monthly decline in house prices in their latest loan approval data.

Although the majority of surveyors expect prices to fall further in the next three months, Mr. Perry stressed there were signs of stabilizing demand from buyers in London.

"London tends to be ahead of the rest of the market. And agents are telling us that more people are looking to buy. It is much better than it was", Mr. Perry said.

However, falling prices continued to spread from the South of England as surveyors reported the first clear decline in prices in Yorkshire and the Humber, the north and the northwest. Scotland remained the only region with rising prices.

We learn from the passage that

A．the present house price falls are at most a momentary phenomenon.

B．the property market is experiencing its most depressing time over the decade.

C．58 percent of surveyprs contacted started to encounter house price falls in May.

D．Rics' widely-followed headline indicator began to fall since Dec. 1992.

第3题

These are useful to man in three important ways: They provide him with wood and other prod

ucts; They give him shade and they help to prevent drought (干旱) and floods. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world, in his eagerness to draw quick benefit from the tree, man has cut down a large number of trees. Even where a government realizes the importance of plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult for it to persuade the villagers to see this. So unless the government has a great system of control, or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.

The resaults are more serious: for where there are trees their roots break the soil allowing the rain to sink and also hold the soil, thus preventing it from being washed away easily, but where there are no trees, the soil becomes hard and poor.

The rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface, causing floods, and carry away with it the rich top soil in which crops grow so well. When all the top soil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desert.

The purpose that the writer wrote this article for is ______.

A．to tell people that trees are very useful to man

B．to warn people not to cut down trees any more

C．to warn that man mustn't destroy forests any more

D．to explain how trees help to prevent drought and floods

For reasons of safety and ease of maintenance, Washington and dozens of other communities are building rubber sidewalks made 76 ground-up tires of cars and bikes. The rubber squares are up to three times more expensive than concrete squares but 77 longer, because tree roots and freezing weather won't crack them. That, 78 , could reduce the number of slip-and-fall complaints made 79 uneven pavements. The shock absorbing surface also happens to be easier on the joints of slow runners and more forgiving when someone slips or falls, and the rubber sidewalks are considered more environmentally friendly. They 80 a way to recycle some of the estimated 290 million tires 81 out each year in the United States, and they do not restrict tree.roots the way concrete squares 82 . Since 2001, a company, Rubber sidewalks, has been grinding thousands of old tires into small pieces, 83 sticky substances and baking the material into sidewalk sections that weigh less than eleven pounds a square foot, or a quarter of the weight of concrete.

第5题

It is not unusual for chief executives to collect millions of dollars a year in pay, stock

options, and bonuses. In the last fifteen years, while executive remuneration rose, taxes in the highest income bracket went down. Millionaires are now commonplace.

Amiability is not a prerequisite for rising to the top, and there are a number of chief executive officers with legendary bad tempers. It is not the boss's job to worry about the well-being of his subordinates although the man with many enemies will be swept out more quickly in hard times; it is the company he worries about. His business savvy is supposed to be based on intimate knowledge of his company and the industry so he goes home nightly with a full briefcase. At the very top and on the way up—executives are exceedingly dedicated.

The American executive must be capable of enough small talk to get him through the social part of his schedule, but he is probably not a highly cultured individual or an intellectual. Although his wife may be on the board of the symphony or opera, he himself has little time for such pursuits. His reading may largely concern business and management, despite interests in other fields. Golf provides him with a sportive outlet that combines with some useful socializing.

These days, he probably attempts some form. of aerobic exercise to "keep the old heart in shape" and for the same reason goes easy on butter and alcohol, and substances thought to contribute to taking highly stressed executives out of the running. But his doctor's admonition to "take it easy" falls on deaf ears. He likes to work. He knows there are younger men nipping at his heels.

Corporate head-hunting, carried on by "executive search firms," is a growing industry. America has great faith in individual talent, and dynamic and aggressive executives are so in demand that companies regularly raid each other's managerial ranks.

We can infer from the second paragraph that ______.

A．promotion depends on amiability

B．chief executives do not work hard enough at the top level

C．it is the duty of the chief executive to look after the well-being of his subordinates

D．a chief executive is expected to know more about his company and the industry
