老托福阅读全套真题95年-05年.doc

TOEFL95-05阅读真题 我还是坚持推荐同学们去找由ETS出的iBT文章来做，而除了我推出了一年多的黄金29篇（现改名为文勇的新托福精选阅读）之外，我们还能找到的就是这个文档之中所有的老托福阅读真题。 我曾经这样建议过同学们，在所有的由ETS出的iBT文章没有做完之前，IBT文章是一致的，就连现在同学们在上托福阅读课的时候，也有许多老师是从老托福中寻找题目进行讲解，我们为何不能主动的适当的去感受一下老托福文章呢。 另外，iBT-SAT-GRE的作文部分或者写留学文书，也应该仔细的琢磨一下这些文章：经过ETS打磨的文章，无一不是精妙绝伦，极具模仿价值。常常有同学拜托我帮她（他）写PS，也说起自己的句子怎么看都像是小学生写的（尽管用上了GRE里面的单词），于是会随口问我“勇哥，您的写作能力是怎么训练出来的。”我说，“看呗，看呗：托福文章看多了，写作能力自然就提高了。” “这ETS的这些文章真的那么好？”。每当听到这个问题，我都会装做赵本山的样子来一句“谁用谁知道～～” 目录 1995.08 4 1995.10 14 1995.12 25 1996.01 36 1996.05 47 1996.08 58 1996.10 68 1996.12 80 1997.01 92 1997.05 103 1997.08 115 1997.10 127 1997.12 139 1998.01 150 1998.05 160 1998.08 170 1998.10 181 1999.01 191 1999.05 204 1999.08 215 1999.10 226 2000.01 238 2000.05 250 2000.08 261 2000.10 273 2001.01 283 2001.05 294 2001.08 305 2001.10 317 2002.01 328 2002.05 339 2002.08 350 2002.09 360 2002.10 371 2003.01 383 2003.08 395 2003.10 407 2004.01 418 2004.05 429 2004.08 439 2004.10 450 2005.01 461 2005.05 472 2005.08 482  1995.08 Question 1-9 Investigation of the Deep-Ocean Keywords: ocean, researchers, techniques, samples, rocks The ocean bottom – a region nearly 2.5 times greater than the total land area of the Earth – is a vast frontier that even today is largely unexplored and uncharted. Until about a century ago, the deep – ocean floor was completely inaccessible, hidden beneath waters averaging over 3,6000 meters deep. Totally without light and subjected to intense pressures hundreds of times greater than at the Earths surface, the deep – ocean bottom is a hostile environment to humans, in some ways as forbidding and remote as the void of outer space. Although researchers have taken samples of deep – ocean rocks and sediments for over a century, the first detailed global investigation of the ocean bottom did not actually start until 1968, with the beginning of the National Science Foundations Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP). Using techniques first developed for the offshore oil and gas industry, the DSDPs drill ship, th
