America　　B．1arger than that ofNorth and South America　　C．equal to that ofNorth and South America　　D．far smaller than that ofNorth and South America　　7．The temperature on the moon can be as high

as industrial diamonds　　B．a(chǎn)ll kinds ofmanufactured goods　　C．medical operations　　D．commercial development　　Passage 3　　Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage：In Switzerland，six miles west of Geneva，lies a collection of laboratories and buildings，and，most curious of all，a circular mound of earth more than 650 feet in diameter．This clusterhas unique importance．It is Europe’S one and only atomic city dedicated to investigation ofthe atom for peaceful purposes．The strange buildings belong to the European Council for Nuclear Research，morepopularly known，from its French initials，as CERN．The council was born when a handful ofstatesmen and scientific experts met in Paris in 1 950．Their aim was“to establish an organizationproviding for collaboration among European states in nuclear research of a pure scientific andfundamental character．”The CERN agreement was signed in 1 953，and work on the atomic city began in 1 954．Today CERN’S facilities are among the most modem and the most diversified in the world．Impressive as the scientific aspect may be，the real significance of CERN may lie with thethousand people——the scientists，lab workers，and administrative crew drawn from the fourteenmember nations——who populate it．British engineers work side by side with Swiss electricians，Yugoslav nuclear physicists，and Dutch mathematicians．The official languages are French andEnglish，with German an unofficial third．But CERN is no tower of Babel——the language ofscience is universal and all-embracing．　　11．The European Council for Nuclear Research was evolved by————．　　A．the Officers of the United Nations　　B．a(chǎn) group ofEuropean scientists　　C．the statesmen and scientists of Switzerland　　D．a(chǎn) handful of statesmen and scientific experts　　12．CERN was established with the aim ofpromoting————．　　A．nuclear research of a fundamental character　　B．collaboration among the world’S nuclear scientists　　C．pure study in all fields of science　　D．bothA andB　　13．fERN’S facilities for research are————．　　A．limitedbut effecfive　　B．a(chǎn)mong the best in the world　　C．rapidly expanding　　D．both A and C　　14．The selection says that CERN is not a tower ofBabel because————．　　A．work iS the common denominator of all the staff　　B．the language of science is universal　　C．CERN has adopted only two official languages　　D．a(chǎn)ll the workers are drawn from one country　　15．The real significance ofCERN may lie in its staffbecause they————．　　A．work in international harmony　　B．come from all over the world　　C．a(chǎn)re investigating all phases ofhuman conduct　　D．a(chǎn)re eliminating the problems of individual nationalism　　Passage 4　　Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage：　Adam Smith，writing in the 1770s，was the first person to see the importance of the division of labour and to explain part of its advantages．He gives as an example of the process by which pins were made in England．　　“One man draws out the wire，another strengthens it，a third cuts it，a fourth points it，afifth grinds it at the top to prepare it to receive the head．To make the head requires two orthree distinct operations．To put it on is a separate operation；to polish the pins is another．It is even a仃ade by itself to put them into the paper．And the important business of making pins is．in this manner，divided into about eighteen distinct operations，which in some factories are allperformed by different people，though in others the same man will sometimes perform two orthree ofthem．”　Ten men，Smith said，in this way，turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4．800pins apiece．But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division oflabour，they certainly could not，each of them，have made twenty pins in a day and perhaps noteven one．　There can be no doubt that division of labour，provided that it is not taken too far，is anefficient way of organising work．Fewer people can make more pins．Adam Smith saw this buthe also took it for granted that division of labour is in itself responsible for economic growthand development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding economies andthose that stand still．But division of labour adds nothing new；it only enables people toproduce more of what they already have．
