Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 30 Change or the ability to adapt oneself to
28、 a changing environment is essential to evolution. The farmer whose land is required for housing or industry must adapt himself: he can move to another place and master the problems peculiar to it; he can change his occupation, perhaps after a period of training; or he can starve to death. A nation
29、which cannot adapt its trade or defense requirements to meet world conditions faces economic or military disaster. Nothing is fixed and permanently stable. There must be movement forward, which is progress of a sort, or movement backwards, which is decay and deterioration. In this context, tradition
30、 can be a force for good or for evil. As long as it offers a guide, it helps the ignorant and the uninformed to take a step forward and, thereby, to adapt themselves to changed circumstances. Tradition, or custom, can guide the hunter as effectively as it can influence the nervous hostess. But if we
31、 make an idol (偶像 ) of tradition, it ceases to become a guide and becomes an obstacle lying across the path of change and progress. If we insist on trying to plot the future by the past, we clearly handicap ourselves and invite failure. The better course is to accept the help which tradition can giv
32、e, but realizing that it necessarily has its roots in the past, to be well aware of its limitations in a changing world. 31 According to this passage, which of the following statements is true? （ A） To avoid decay and deterioration, we must keep the world permanently stable. （ B） The world is always
33、 changing, so we must adjust ourselves to new conditions. （ C） The important point of evolution is that the world undergoes movement forward and movement backward alternately. （ D） Tradition often become an obstacle lying across the path of change and progress. 32 The author uses the incident of the
34、 farmer in the passage to illustrate that_. （ A） people should adapt themselves to the changed circumstances （ B） farmers are especially influenced by tradition （ C） the farmer may have to undergo a period of training （ D） the farmer will starve to death if he does not pay due regard to tradition 33
35、 In the second paragraph, “this context“ refers to_. （ A） decay and deterioration （ B） movement forward （ C） tradition （ D） a changing world 34 Tradition becomes an obstacle across the path of change and progress when we_. （ A） accept tradition only as a guide （ B） rely too much on tradition without
36、 realizing its limitations （ C） strongly desire for change without considering the possible consequences （ D） plot the future irrespective of tradition 35 The author concludes by offering the advice; _. （ A） since tradition necessarily has its roots in the past, it would be better to take no notice
37、of it （ B） we must stick firmly to tradition when facing a new problem, and not break with it under any circumstance （ C） we should neither worship nor reject tradition but take from it some help it can offer in certain particular instance （ D） we should realize the limitations of a changing world a
38、nd not invite failure 35 Our bodies are wonderfully skilful at maintaining balance. When the temperature jumps, we sweat to cool down. When our blood pressure falls, our hearts pound to compensate. As it turned out, though, our natural state is not a steady one. Researchers are finding that everythi
39、ng from blood pressure to brain function varies rhythmically with the cycles of sun, moon and seasons. And their insights are yielding new strategies for keeping away such common killers as heart disease and cancer. Only one doctor in 20 has a good knowledge of the growing field of “chronotherapeuti
40、cs“, the strategic use of time (chronos) in medicine. But according to a new American Medical Association poll, three out of four are eager to change that “The field is exploding“, says Michael Smolensky. “Doctors used to look at us like, What space ship did you guys get off ? Now theyre thirsty to
41、know more. “ In medical school, most doctors learn that people with chronic conditions should take their medicine at steady rates. “Its a terrible way to treat disease,“ says Dr. Richard Martin. For example, asthmatics (气喘患者 ) are most likely to suffer during the night. Yet most patients strive to k
42、eep a constant level of medicine in their blood day and night, whether by breathing in on an inhaler (吸入器 ) four times a day or taking a pill each morning and evening. In recent studies, researchers have found that a large midafternoon dose of a bronchodilator (支气管扩张 剂 ) can be as safe as several sm
43、all doses, and better for preventing nighttime attacks. If the night belongs to asthma, the dawn belongs to high blood pressure and heart disease. Heart attacks are twice as common at 9 a. m. as at 11 p. m. Part of the reason is that our blood pressure falls predictably at night, then peaks as we st
44、art to work for the day. “Doctors know that,“ says Dr. Henry Black of Chicago Medical Center, “but until now, we havent been able to do anything about it. “ Most blood pressure drugs provide 18 to 20 hours of relief. But because theyre taken in the morning, theyre least effective when most needed. “
45、You take your pill at 7and its working by 9,“ says Dr. William White of the University of Connecticut Health Center. “But by that time youve gone through the worst four hours of the day with no protection,“Bedtime dosing would prevent that lapse, but it would also push blood pressure to dangerously
46、low levels during the night. 36 According to the passage, how do human bodies maintain balance? （ A） They adjust themselves timely in line with their physical conditions. （ B） People increase or lower the body temperature by sweating. （ C） Peoples hearts pound to compensate when the blood pressure g
47、oes up. （ D） Both B and C 37 Researchers are finding that_. （ A） heart disease and cancer are the most common killers of human beings （ B） blood pressure and brain function are decided by cycles of sun, moon and seasons （ C） the functions of human bodies have much to do with nature （ D） any change i
48、n human bodies goes systematically with changes in the environment 38 According to the author, it is best for asthmatics to take their medicines_. （ A） at steady rates （ B） each morning and evening （ C） when the disease occurs （ D） at midafternoon 39 Which of the following statements is NOT true? （
49、A） Doctors know more about chronotherapeutics than before. （ B） Doctors in the U. S. used to be thirsty to know more about the new medical field. （ C） The researchers insights are providing new strategies to prevent common killers. （ D） The strategic use of time in medicine attracts more attention in the medical circle in the U.S. 40 The suggested title for this passage might be_. （ A
