9、n this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20 Animals have different ways of protecting themselv

10、es against wintertime weather. Some animals grow heavy coats of fur or feathers, while others dig into the ground to find a warm wintertime home. Some animals spend the winter in a deep sleep because by going to sleep they avoid the time of the year when food is scarce and the temperatures are low.

11、Their sleep is known as hibernation.There is much about hibernation that puzzles scientists. For example, they are wondering how hibernation came into being. Some scientists have explored the possibility that animals release a chemical that starts them hibernating.One thing that scientists are certa

12、in about is that animals hibernate only when it is cold. Hibernation is a seasonal practice.Some animals that fall into a wintertime sleep are not true hibernators because they spend only a part of the cold season asleep. Bears, for example, can easily be awakened from their winter nap. They are not

13、 true hibernators.Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a particular animal is a true hibernator. For example, some mice hibernate, but others do not. The same is true of bats. Some of them hibernate. Other do not.21 Hibernation is a seasonal practice. This means it _.（A）takes place only du

14、ring a particular season（B） occurs only during the night（C） is a daily practice（D）only happens when a species becomes over-populated22 Some scientists believe that hibernation is started by _.（A）over-eating（B） calcium deposits（C） a body chemical（D）a lack of water23 The underlined word “hibernation“

15、in paragraph 1 means _.（A）a sleep to avoid eating（B） a temperature in cold weather（C） a sleep in the cold season（D）an animal to practice sleep in winter24 The main idea of this passage is that _.（A）many animals die during hibernation（B） hibernation protects animals during the wintertime（C） scientist

16、s feel puzzled about hibernation（D）some bats hibernate and others do not24 The strange close understanding between twins is a familiar enough phenomenon. Often they seem to understand each other and share each others emotions to such an extent that one suspects some kind of thought communication.Wha

17、t is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins intellectual development. As they are partly isolated in their own private world, twins communicate less with adults than do other children. The verbal ability of a four-year-old twin is typically six months behi

18、nd that of a non-twin. The problem can be particularly severe in an underprivileged family, a one-parent family for example, where there is little stimulation for children anyway.Such children, while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language, often remain incomprehensible to outsiders an

19、d thus at a severe educational disadvantage. The only solution to the problem, cruel though it may seem, is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinary speech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.25 Many people dont know that _.（A）twins understand each other very wel

20、l（B） twins are slow to learn to talk（C） twins are unlikely to do less well at school than other children（D）there exists more communication between twins26 Whats the reason for twins to be at a disadvantage in their intellectual development?（A）They can only understand their own private language.（B） T

21、hey communicate with outsiders less than non-twins.（C） There is little stimulation for them.（D）Adults dont like to talk with them.27 The author probably feels that twins problem _.（A）can not be solved because solution is very cruel（B） can be solved because twins will be separated（C） can not be solve

22、d unless the twins are forced to live in an ordinary environment（D）can be solved if the adults communicate with them more often28 The writer mentions all of the items listed below EXCEPT _.（A）twins can help each other（B） twins share each others emotion（C） twins are able to understand each other in a

23、 private language（D）twins communicate less with their parents28 The intelligence test used most often today are based on the work of a Frenchman, Alfred Binet. In 1905, Binet was asked by the French Ministry of Education to develop a way to identify those children in French schools who were too “men

24、tally deficient (不足的)“ to benefit from ordinary schooling and who needed special education. The tests had to distinguish those who were merely behind in school from those who were actually mentally deficient.The items that Binet and his colleague Theophile Simon included on the test were chosen on t

25、he basis of their ideas about intelligence. Binet and Simon believed intelligence includes such abilities as understanding the meaning of words; solving problems, and making commonsense judgements. Two other important assumptions also shaped Binets and Simons work: (1) that children with more intell

26、igence will do better in school and (2) that older children have a greater ability than younger children.Binets first test consisted of thirty tasks. They were simple things most children learn as a result of their everyday experiences. The tasks were arranged in groups, according to age. Binet deci

27、ded which tasks were appropriate for a given age group by giving them first to a large number of children of different ages. If more than half of the children of a given age passed a test, it was considered appropriate for that age group.29 The main purpose of this passage is to _.（A）tell the origin

28、 of intelligence tests（B） explain the basic principle of intelligence tests（C） describe the changes in the content of intelligence tests（D）state the development of intelligence tests30 What was the purpose of the intelligence test designed by Alfred Binet in 1905?（A）To select top students.（B） To kno

29、w who had received ordinary schooling.（C） To put students in a right order.（D）To make sure who required particular treatment.31 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?（A）Intelligence includes word understanding and problem solving.（B） More intelligent children usually do better

30、in school.（C） The French Ministry of Education was charged with the development of first intelligence tests.（D）Intelligence is related with age.32 How did Binet decide which task to include on his first test?（A）He first worked out thirty tasks for mentally deficient children.（B） He first gave all th

31、e tasks to many children both younger and older.（C） He first gave the tasks to many children he thought appropriate.（D）He first gave some of the tasks to different groups of children.32 How men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we real

32、ly know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds and which could

33、be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associationsthe things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the gl

34、ad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telli

35、ng use of words is what we call literary(文字的) style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accura

36、tely, or they will make our speech silly and rude.33 The origin of language _.（A）is a legend handed down from the past（B） is reflected in sounds and letters（C） dates back to the prehistoric period（D）is a problem not yet solved34 One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts

37、and actions is that _.（A）they could agree upon certain signs（B） they could write them down（C） they could communicate with each other（D）they could combine them35 What is true about words?（A）They are used to express feelings only.（B） They can not be written down.（C） They are represented either by soun

38、ds or letters.（D）They are visual letters.36 The real power of words exists in their _.（A）accuracy（B） beauty（C） charm（D）representative function36 It is customary for adults to forget how hard and dull and long school is. The learning by memory of all the basic things one must know is a most incredibl

39、e and unending effort. Learning to read is probably the most difficult and revolutionary thing that happens to the human brain and if you dont believe that, watch an illiterate adult try to do it. School is not easy and it is not for the most part very much fun, but then, if you are very lucky, you

40、may find a real teacher. Three real teachers in a lifetime is the very best of my luck. My first was a science and math teacher in high school, my second, a professor of creative writing at Stanford, and my third was my friend and partner, Ed Ricketts.My three had these things in common: They all lo

41、ved what they were doing. They did not tell; they catalyzed a burning desire to know. Under their influence, the horizons sprung wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable. But most important of all, the truth, that dangerous stuff, became beautiful and very precious.I shall speak only

42、of my first teacher because in addition to the other things, she brought discovery.She aroused us to shouting, book-waving discussions. She had the noisiest class in school and she didnt even seem to know it. We could never stick to the subject. Our speculation ranged the world. She breathed curiosi

43、ty into us so that we brought in facts or truths shielded in our hands like captured fireflies.I can tell my son who looks forward with horror to fifteen years of drudgery that somewhere in the dusty dark a magic may happen that will light up the years if he is very lucky.37 According to the author,

44、 what is the difficult thing to people in school?（A）Listening.（B） Reading.（C） Writing.（D）Speaking.38 The very best of the author is that he _.（A）met a good teacher（B） he graduated from Stanford（C） made friends with his teachers（D）met some good teachers in his life39 Among his teachers, _ left him a

45、very deep impression.（A）the university teacher（B） the high school teacher（C） Ed Ricketts（D）the first two teachers40 The author hoped that his son _.（A）may be lucky to meet a good teacher（B） may study in school for fifteen years（C） can read many books（D）may study science and math四、Part IV ClozeDirect
