Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the eff
2、ects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suf-fer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the polit
3、icians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and to make their opinions count.Unfortunately, televisions influence has been extremely harmful to the young. (76) Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertiseme
4、nts lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television generations“ are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient. (77) Used to TV shows, where ever
5、ything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read abook that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesnt do funny things like the people on childrens programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thi
6、rty minutes. Thats the time it takes on the screen.（分数：10.00）(1).In the past, many young people_.（分数：2.00）A.knew the effects of warB.went in for politicsC.liked to save the wounded in warsD.were willing to be soldiers(2).Now with TV people can_.（分数：2.00）A.discuss politics at an information centerB.s

9、B.TV programs should be improvedC.childrens books should have picturesD.TV has a deep influence on the young三、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and close-ness of two people when they are tal
10、king. (78) The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry.For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Ameri-cans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North America
11、n when speaking, while the South American often consider the North American to be “cold“ or “distant“ because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to. The “eye contact“ provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have obser
12、ved that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who dont like each other.(79) The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indi-cates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about.On the other ha
13、nd, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparent-ly play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to bea sign of friendliness. Someone, who is always smiling, and wi
14、th little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, nonverbal communication_.（分数：2.00）A.is a method often used by people who cannot speakB.can tell something that words cannotC.can be used to talk with people who cannot bearD.is less used than words(2).The South

16、ts distance in relation.B.The longer one looks at you, the more interest he has in you.C.There is more eye contact between people who like each other.D.Shorter eye contact shows more interest in what one is talking about.(4).Too long a gaze_.（分数：2.00）A.may upset people being looked atB.shows ones gr

18、 to 15 are based on the following passage:In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostly married. (80) The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make
19、 the chil-dren happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago-so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interestedrather than giving them actual ins
20、truction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co- operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that
21、American society is highly competitive; however, the need for mak-ing people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of educa-tion. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational
22、system fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, the American elementary education is supposed to make children_.（分数：2.00）A.sensible and sensitiveB.c

24、give little actual instruction to children(3).The authors attitude towards American education can be best described as_.（分数：2.00）A.favorableB.negativeC.tolerantD.unfriendly(4).The American educational system emphasizes_.（分数：2.00）A.material wealthB.competitionC.cooperationD.personal benefit(5).The un
25、derlined word “sociable“ in the passage most probably means being_.（分数：2.00）A.fond of talking freelyB.friendly with other peopleC.concerned about social welfareD.happy at school五、Part Vocabulary an(总题数：30，分数：30.00)1.In fact, I would rather have left for the countryside_at home.（分数：1.00）A.by stayingB

This is particularly true (56) women, and even more (57) if the inquirer is a man.However, it i
43、s very (58) to ask children their age, and some adults may not mind (59) either. In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to (60) their age, especially if they feel they look young (61) their age.

45、youthfulness, though rather than (67) that they look very old!(68) Westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not (69) that they are not interested in knowing how old other people are. They may ask someone else (70) the information, (71) they may try to (72) the topic
46、indirect-ly. Sometimes discussions about educational (73) and the number of years of working ex- periences may provide some (74) , but this is not always the (75) .（分数：10.00）A.onB.forC.inD.ofA.thatB.suchC.thanD.soA.averageB.normalC.expectedD.unusualA.being askedB.askingC.to askD.to be askedA.revealB
