25、) Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. 30 In what now see
26、ms like the prehistoric times of computer history, the earths postwar era, there was quite a wide-spread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and
27、in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfu
28、nction (失误 ). Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong. Questioning and routine double-checks must cont
29、inue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills. 31 What is the main purpose of this passage
30、? （ A） To look back to the early days of computers. （ B） To explain what technical problems may occur with computers. （ C） To discourage unnecessary investment in computers. （ D） To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers. 32 According to the passage, the initial concern about comput
31、ers was that they might_. （ A） change our personal lives （ B） take control of the world （ C） create unforeseen problems （ D） affect our businesses 33 The passage recommends those dealing with computers to_. （ A） be reasonably doubtful about them （ B） check all their answers （ C） substitute them for
32、basic thinking （ D） use them for business purposes only 34 The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is_. （ A） challenging （ B） psychological （ C） dramatic （ D） fundamental 35 It can be inferred from the passage that the author would disapprove of_. （ A） investment i
33、n computers （ B） the use of ones internal computer （ C） double-checks on computers （ D） complete dependence on computers for decision-making 35 What is exactly a lie? Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some
34、money from you, you say: I wish I could help you but Im short of money myself. In fact, you are not short of money, but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you dont want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this really a lie? A scientific study of lying shows women a
35、re better liars than men, particularly when telling a “white lie“ such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks terrible. However, this is only one side of the story. Other researches show that men are more likely to tell more serious li
36、es, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or gain in some way. Research has also been done into the way peoples behavior changes
37、in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the same time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. To the trained observer they are saying “I wish I were somewhere else now“. 36 This passage tells us that_. （ A）
38、 telling lies is often necessary in order to avoid being defeated （ B） telling lies is often bad because people ought not to be dishonest （ C） telling lies is sometimes necessary in order not to hurt someone elses feelings （ D） telling lies is not bad at all in most cases 37 In Para. 2, the sentence
39、 “Women are better liars than men. “ probably means_. （ A） Women are better at telling lies than men （ B） Women liars are better accepted than men （ C） Women have a better intention when telling lies （ D） Women tell fewer lies than men do 38 A “white lie“ means_. （ A） a lie that is completely unbeli
40、evable （ B） a lie that is told with a goodwill （ C） a lie that is always believable （ D） a lie that often has an evil purpose 39 Politicians and businessmen are supposed to be skilled at telling the kind of lies_. （ A） from which they may gain some advantages （ B） that seems to be believable （ C） th
41、at women are most likely to believe （ D） with which they can have better relationship with others 40 It can be concluded from the passage that_. （ A） there is a simple way of finding out if someone is lying （ B） from some ways people behave we can know they are lying （ C） certain emotions are proof
42、of lying （ D） in some situations women are most likely to think businessmen are dishonest 40 Nursing at Beth Israel Hospital produces the best patient care possible. If we are to solve the nursing shortage, hospital administration and doctors everywhere would do well to follow Beth Israels example.
43、At Beth Israel each patient is assigned to a primary nurse who visits at length with the patient and constructs a full-scale health account that covers everything from his medical history to his emotional state. Then she writes a care plan centered on the patients illness but which also includes eve
44、rything else that is necessary. The primary nurse stays with the patient through his hospitalization, keeping track with his progress and seeking further advice from his doctor. If a patient at Beth Israel is not responding to treatment, it is not uncommon for his nurse to propose another approach t
45、o his doctor. What the doctor at Beth Israel has in the primary nurse is a true colleague. Nursing at Beth Israel also involves a decentralized (分散的 ) nursing administration; every floor, every unit is a self-contained organization. There are nurse-managers instead of head nurses; in addition to the
46、ir medical duties they do all their own hiring and dismissing, employee advising, and they make salary recommendations. Each units nurses decide among themselves who will work what shifts and when. Beth Israels nurse-in-chief ranks as an equal with other vice presidents of the hospital. She also is
47、a member of the Medical Executive Committee, which in most hospitals includes only doctors. 41 Which of the following best characterizes the main feature of the nursing system at Beth Israel Hospital? （ A） The doctor gets more active professional support from the primary nurse. （ B） Each patient is
48、taken care of by a primary nurse day and night. （ C） The primary nurse writes care plans for every patient. （ D） The primary nurse keeps records of the patients health conditions every day. 42 It can be inferred from the passage that_. （ A） compared with other hospitals nurses at Beth Israel Hospita
49、l are more patient （ B） in most hospitals patient care is inadequate from the professional point of view （ C） in most hospitals nurses get low salaries （ D） compared with other hospitals nurses have to work longer hours at Beth Israel Hospital 43 A primary nurse can propose a different approach of treatment when_. （ A） the present one is refused by the patient （ B） the pa
