15、 things for granted. We tend to assume that experts and religious leaders tell us “the truth“ We tend to believe that things advertised on television or in newspapers can“t be bad for us. However, encouragement of critical thinking in students is one of the goals of most colleges and universities. F
16、ew professors require students to share the professors“ own beliefs. In general, professors are more concerned that students learn to question and critically examine the arguments of others, including some of their own beliefs or values. This does not mean that professors insist that you change your
17、 beliefs, either. It does mean, however, professors will usually ask you to support the views you express in class or in your writing. If your premises (前提) are shaky , or if your arguments are not logical, professors personally point out the false reasoning in your arguments. Most professors want y
18、ou to learn to recognize the premises of your arguments, to examine whether you really accept these premises, and to understand whether or not you draw logical conclusions. Put it this way: Professors don“t tell you what to think; they try to teach you how to think. On the other hand, if you intend
19、to disagree with your professors in class, you should be prepared to offer a strong argument in support of your ideas. Argument just for the sake of arguing usually does not promote a critical examination of ideas. Many professors interpret it as rudeness.（分数：10.00）(1).In the first paragraph, the wr
20、iter tries to tell us that people _.（分数：2.00）A.grow up through learning certain things in lifeB.easily accept certain things without a second thoughtC.have strong beliefs in authorities while getting oldD.are forming their views during their growth(2).Nowadays, most colleges and universities encoura
21、ge students to _.（分数：2.00）A.give their own ideasB.share professors“ beliefC.criticize othersD.change their own beliefs(3).The word “shaky“ (Line 1, Para.3) most probably means _.（分数：2.00）A.creativeB.firmC.weakD.false(4).To help students develop their critical thinking, professors mainly teach them _
22、.（分数：2.00）A.choice of their premisesB.different kinds of argumentC.skills of drawing conclusionsD.the way to think independently(5).According to the writer, the right way to argue is to _.（分数：2.00）A.support your idea with sound reasoningB.prove it with a good conclusionC.argue mainly for the sake of
23、 arguingD.examine others“ ideas critically四、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popula
24、r in the United States? Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a unifor
25、m tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity (身份) than to step out of uniform? Uniforms also have many
26、practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible (可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes. Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienc
27、ed by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practic
28、al problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.（分数：10.00）(1).It is surp
29、rising that Americans who worship variety and individuality _.（分数：2.00）A.still judge a man by his clothesB.hold the uniform in such high regardC.enjoy having a professional identityD.will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform(2).People are accustomed to think that a man in uni
30、form _.（分数：2.00）A.suggests quality workB.discards his social identityC.appears to be more practicalD.looks superior to a person in civilian clothes(3).The chief function of a uniform is to _.（分数：2.00）A.provide practical benefits to the wearerB.make the wearer catch the public eyeC.inspire the wearer
31、“s confidence in himselfD.provide the wearer with a professional identity(4).According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _.（分数：2.00）A.are usually helpfulB.have little or no individual freedomC.tend to lose their individualityD.enjoy greater popularity(5).The best title for this passage would b
32、e _.（分数：2.00）A.Uniforms and SocietyB.The Importance of Wearing a UniformC.Practical Benefits of Wearing a UniformD.Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms五、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：10.00)When prices are low people will buy more, and when prices are high they will buy less. Every shopkeeper knows this
33、. But at the same time, producers want higher prices for their goods when they make more goods. How can we find the best price for the goods? The Law of Supply and Demand is the economist“s answer to this question. According to this law, changes in the prices of goods cause changes in supply and dem
34、and. An increase in the price of the goods causes an increase in supplythe number of goods the producers make. Producers will make more goods when they can get higher prices for the goods. The producer makes more shoes as the price of shoes goes up. At the same time, an increase in the price of the
35、goods causes a decrease in demandthe number of goods the consumers buy. This is because people buy less when the price is high. People buy fewer shoes as the price of shoes goes up. Conversely, a decrease in the price causes an increase in demand (people buy more shoes) and a decrease in supply (pro
36、ducers make fewer shoes). Business firms look at both supply and demand when they make decisions about prices and production. They look for the equilibrium point where supply equals demand. At this point, the number of shoes produced is 3000 and the price of the shoes is $30. $30 is the equilibrium
37、price; at this price the consumers will buy all of the 3000 shoes which the producers make. If the producers increase the price of the shoes, or if they produce more than 3000 shoes, the consumers will not buy all of the shoes. The producers will have a surplus(过剩)more supply than demandso they must
38、 decrease the price in order to sell all of the shoes. On the other hand, if they make fewer than 3000 shoes, there will be a shoes shortagemore demand than supplyand the price will go up. According to the Law of Supply and Demand, the equilibrium price is the best price for the goods. The consumers
39、 and the producers will agree on this price because it is the only price that helps them both equally.（分数：10.00）(1).Why does an increase in price cause an increase in supply?（分数：2.00）A.Consumers buy more goods when prices are high.B.Producers want to sell all of their goods.C.Producers make more goo
40、ds when prices are high.D.Consumers will not buy all of the goods.(2).Why does a decrease in prices cause an increase in demand?（分数：2.00）A.Producers make fewer goods when prices are low.B.Consumers buy fewer goods when prices are low.C.Consumers buy more goods when prices are low.D.Producers make mo
41、re goods when prices are high.(3).What do business firms look at when they make decisions about prices and production?（分数：2.00）A.The equilibrium point.B.The demand curve.C.The supply curve.D.All of the above.(4).Why will consumers and producers agree on the equilibrium price?（分数：2.00）A.It is the onl
42、y price for the goods.B.It will help them both equally.C.All of the goods will be sold.D.It is the lowest price.(5).When will producers have a surplus of goods?（分数：2.00）A.When supply-equals demand.B.When they sell all of their goods.C.When there is more demand than supply.D.When there is more supply
43、 than demand.六、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：10.00)A new World Bank report warns that children who do not get enough good food in the first two years of life suffer lasting damage. They may be underdeveloped or underweight. They may suffer from poor health or limited intelligence. In addition, poorly nouris
44、hed children are more likely to drop out of school and earn less money as adults. The report notes that too little food is not the only cause of poor nutrition. Many children who live in homes with plenty of food suffer for other reasons. For example, the study says that mothers often fail to give t
45、heir newly born babies their first breast milk. This milk-like substance is called colostrum (初乳). It is full of nutrients that improve a baby“s ability to fight infections and disease. The study also links malnutrition (营养不良) to economic growth in poor countries. A lack of nutrition in early childh
46、ood can cost developing nations up to three percent of their yearly earnings. Many of these same countries have economies that are growing at a rate of two to three percent yearly. The study suggests that poor countries could possibly double their economic growth if they improved nutrition. Africa a
47、nd South Asia are affected the most by poor nutrition. The study says about half of all children in India do not get enough good food. The World Bank study also notes that rates of malnutrition in South Asia are almost double those in central and southern Africa. Other parts of the world are also se
48、verely affected, including Indonesia, Uzbekistan, Yemen, Guatemala and Peru. The study recommends that developing countries change their policies to deal with malnutrition. Instead of directly providing food, the study suggests educational programs in health and nutrition for mothers with young babi
49、es. It also recommends cleaner living conditions and improvements in health care. World Bank nutrition specialist Meera Shekar said the period of life between pregnancy and two years is extremely important. Governments with limited resources should take direct action to improve nutrition for children during this period.（分数：10.00）(1).What“s the main topic of the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Poor nu
