20、 Life of Insects, Professor Bouvier says that we must be careful not to credit the little winged fellows with intelligence when they behave in what seems like an intelligent manner. They may be only reacting. I would like to confront the professor with an instance of reasoning power on the part of a

21、n insect which cannot be explained away in any other manner.During the summer of 1899, while I was at work on my doctoral thesis, we kept a female wasp at our cottage. It was more like a child of our own than a Wasp, except that it looked more like a wasp than a child of our own. That was one of the

22、 ways we told the difference.It was still a young wasp when we got it (thirteen or fourteen years old) and for some time we could not get it to eat or drink, it was so shy. Since it was a female we decided to call it Miriam, but soon the childrens nickname for it “Pudge“ became a fixture, and “Pudge

23、“ it was from that time on.One evening I had been working late in my laboratory fooling around with some gin and other chemicals, and in leaving the room I tripped over a nine of diamonds which someone had left lying on the floor and knocked over my card index which contained the names and addresses

24、 of all the larvae worth knowing in North America. The cards went everywhere.I was too tired to stop to pick them up that night, and went sobbing to bed, just as mad as I could be. As I went, however, I noticed the wasp was flying about in circles over the scattered cards. “Maybe Pudge will pick the

25、m up,“ I said half laughingly to myself, never thinking for one moment that such would be the case.When I came down the next morning Pudge was still asleep in her box, evidently tired out. And well she might have been. For there on the floor lay the cards scattered all about just as I had left them

26、the night before. The faithful little insect had buzzed about all night trying to come to some decision about picking them up and arranging them in the boxes for me, and then had figured out for herself that, as she knew practically nothing of larvae of any sort except wasp larvae, she would probabl

27、y make more of a mess of rearranging them than if she had left them on the floor for me to fix. It was just too much for her to tackle, and, discouraged, she went over and lay down in her box, where she cried herself to sleep.If this is not an answer to Professor Bouviers statement, I do not know wh

28、at is.（分数：5.00）(1).Professor Bouvier believes that insects_.（分数：1.00）A.do not have intelligenceB.behave in an intelligent wayC.are capable of reasoningD.are more intelligent than we thought(2).On the evening the author fell over, someone_.（分数：1.00）A.had moved his card indexB.had been playing card ga

29、mesC.had knocked over his boxes containing cardsD.had looked at his collection of diamonds(3).When he came to the laboratory the next morning, the author_.（分数：1.00）A.saw that his cards had already been rearrangedB.realized that the wasp had been trying to helpC.found evidence of the wasps intelligen

30、ceD.found his index cards still scattered about the room(4).The authors account of his wasps intelligence_.（分数：1.00）A.is imaginaryB.is convincingC.firmly proves his point of viewD.is valuable for insect study(5).The purpose of this article is to_.（分数：1.00）A.oppose Professor Bouviers point of viewB.s

31、upport Professor Bouvier with his own experienceC.further discuss whether insects are intelligentD.illustrate the working theory behind the authors thesisBPassage Two/BModem technology and science have produced a wealth of new materials and new ways of using old materials. For the artist this means

32、wider opportunities. There is no doubt that the limitations of materials and nature of tools both restrict and shape a mans work. Observe how the development of plastics and light metals along with new methods of welding has changed the direction of sculpture. Transparent plastic materials allow one

33、 to look through an object, to see its various sides superimposed on each other (as in Cubism or in an X-ray). Today, welding is as prevalent as casting was in the past. This new method encourages open designs, where surrounding and intervening space becomes as important as form itself.More ambiguou

34、s than other scientific inventions familiar to modem artists, but no less influential, are the psychoanalytic studies of Freud and his followers, discoveries that have infiltrated recent art, especially Surrealism. The Surrealists, in their struggle to escape the monotony and frustrations of everyda

35、y life, claimed that dreams were the only hope. Turning to the irrational world of their unconscious, they banished all time barriers and moral judgments to combine disconnected dream experiences from the past, present and intervening psychological states. The Surrealists were concerned with overlap

36、ping emotions more than with overlapping forms. Their paintings often become segmented capsules of associative experiences. For them, obsessive and often unrelated images replaced the direct emotional message of expressionism. They did not need to smash paint and canvas; they went beyond this to sma

37、sh the whole continuity of logical thought.There is little doubt that contemporary art has taken much from contemporary life. In a period when science has made revolutionary strides, artists in their studios have not been unaware of scientists in their laboratories. But this has rarely been a one-wa

38、y street. Painters and sculptors, though admittedly influenced by modern science, have also molded and changed our world. If breakup has been a vital part of their expression, it has not always been a symbol of destruction. Quite the contrary: it has been used to examine more fully, to penetrate mor

39、e deeply, to analyze more thoroughly, to enlarge, isolate and make more familiar certain aspects of life that earlier we were apt to neglect. In addition, it sometimes provides rich multiple experiences so organized as not merely to reflect our world, but in fact to interpret it.（分数：5.00）(1).The wel

40、ding techniques_.（分数：1.00）A.can cause a lot of changes in sculpture artsB.permit details of an object to be seen clearlyC.can superimpose multiple sides of sculptors designsD.can make artists adaptable to be surroundings(2).We can learn from the text that Freuds studies_.（分数：1.00）A.are more ambiguou

41、s than any other scientific inventionB.have influenced other scientific inventionsC.cause SurrealismD.have infiltrated Surrealism(3).Which of the following is true about Surrealists?（分数：1.00）A.They diminished all time barriers and moral judgments to combine disconnected dream experiences.B.They trie

42、d to express their subconscious world.C.They could transform real existence into incoherent dreams.D.They wanted to substitute direct expressions for fragmented images.(4).According to the passage, it is true that_.（分数：1.00）A.artistic creations seem to be the reproductions of modern technologyB.arti

43、stic creations have made great strides scientificallyC.artistic creations appear to be incapable of ignoring material advancesD.artistic creations are the reflection of the material world(5).The sentence “But this has rarely been a one-way street“ in the last paragraph means that_.（分数：1.00）A.contemp

44、orary art has been nourished by modern scienceB.modern science has been nourished by artC.artists can become scientists and scientists can become artistsD.the impacts of modern art and science are actually mutualBPassage Three/BWhen I was a child in Sunday school, I would ask searching questions lik

45、e “Angels can fly up in heaven, but how do clouds hold up pianos?“ and get the same puzzling response about how that was not important, what was important was that Jesus died for our sins and if we accepted him as our savior, when we died, we would go to heaven, where wed get everything we wanted. S

46、ome children in my class wondered why anyone would hang on a cross with nails stuck through his hands to help anyone else; I wondered how Santa Claus knew what I wanted for Christmas, even though I never wrote him a letter. Maybe he had a tape recorder hidden in every chimney in the world.This liter

47、al-mindedness has stuck with me; one result of it is that I am unable to believe in God. Most of the other atheists I know seem to feel freed or proud of their unbelief, as if they have cleverly refused to be sold snake oil. My husband, who was reared in a devout Catholic family, has served as an al

48、tar boy. So other than baptizing our son to reassure our families, weve skated over the issue of faith.Some people believe faith is a gift; its a choice, a matter of spiritual discipline. I have a friend who was reared to believe, and he does. But his faith has wavered. He has struggled to hang onto it and to pass it along to his children. Another friend of mine never goes to church because shes a single mother who doesnt
