To make an estimate means to guess the number of things in a group or guess a measurement of some kind. It sometimes means to make a calculation about the future which is based not on exact data（数据） but on past experience．This kind of estimate has some basis, but it generally has to be changed and corrected later．

www.88haoxue.com When you estimate a number, a temperature, or a weight, you do not count things one by one or use a measuring tool．You look at a group of things without counting them and try to get a rough, general idea of their number, or you try to weigh something in your hand instead of on a balance．You feel hot and say “My temperature must be 38 degrees” or you look at a room and say that you estimate its area as 10+8 feet． But in many situations in ordinary life we do not have time to measure things and must depend on estimates．Drivers do not have time to measure the distance between their own car and a car which is coming near．They must guess it; the guess or estimate will be based on their past experience．Experienced cooks do not trouble to measure the amount of salt they put into the soup or sugar they mix with flour． Suppose a man comes into the house and says, “There are two inches of snow on the road．” His statement is only an estimate, but we believe it because we think that it is roughly correct．We put our boots on before we go into the snow． For practical purposes in some situations it is safe to make an estimate, but in other situations it is obviously dangerous．If it is your job to weigh drugs or make airplanes, do not depend on guessing but use an accurate（精确的） instrument． 60．The writer suggests that in our daily life an estimate is _____． A．usually corrected by further data B．often checked by instruments C．not accepted by others D．often made according to one’s past experience 61．According to the passage, measuring instruments are not always used in measuring things in everyday life because _____． A．people generally do not carry them along B．it is more reliable to guess than to measure C．they are not always ready when you need them D．people are busy and a general idea of things is enough 62．We can know from the person’s statement on snow that _____． A．he wants to inform people that it’s snowing heavily B．it is necessary to depend on estimates C．his estimate is quite exact D．it is likely that he has measured the level of the snow 63．The writer thinks that depending on estimates _____． A．may save us both time and money B．may bring us a sense of safety C．does not always keep us out of danger D．is practical but dangerous C If you can’t catch the bad guy, it’s game over-----this is the rule of life for computer game players．But similar thoughts might be worrying US president George W．Bush as he prepares for the election year with the world’s most wanted man still out of his reach． The hunt for Laden has been going on since the attack on New York’s World Trade Center on September 11, 2001．Progress has been slow and, with John Kerry winning the race last Tuesday to compete against Bush in November’s presidential elections, the president needs results． “If Laden can be caught before the presidential election, Bush will get an upper hand,” a senior US official told the New York Times． The American public’s support for the war in Iraq has been falling, especially as the Bush government cannot find the banned weapons it said were in the country．But the way in which the president’s popularity rose following the arrest of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein in December shows how useful the capture of Laden would be． The latest information suggests the election will be close, with 48 percent of Americans saying they will vote for Bush and 46 percent backing Kerry． In order to seize Laden, thousands of US soldiers were moved from Iraq to Afghanistan earlier this week, according to a US official Further efforts have been made to strengthen Afghanistan’s border area with Pakistan, with soldiers checking nearby villages more frequently than before． 64．The American presidential election will be held between _____and ____． A．George W Bush; Jimmy Carter    B．John Kerry; Thomas Jefferson C．George W Bush; John Kerry        D．George Bush; John Kerry 65．Which of the following statements is TRUE?
