11、le bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 10 Many people believe the glare from snow causes snow blindness. Yet, with dark glasses or not, they find themselves suffering from headaches and watering eyes, and even snowblindness, when exposed to several hours of “snow lig
12、ht“. The United States Army has now determined that the glare from snow does not cause snow-blindness in troops in a snow-covered country. Rather, a mans eyes frequently find nothing to focus on in a broad expanse of a snow-covered area. So his gaze continually shifts and jumps back and forth over t
13、he entire landscape in search of something to look at. Finding nothing, hour after hour, the eyes never stop searching and the eyeballs become sore and the eye muscle aches. Nature balances this annoyance by producing more and more liquid which covers the eyeballs. The liquid covers the eyeballs in
14、increasing quantity until vision blurs. And the result is total, even though temporary, snowblindness. Experiments led the Army to a simple method of overcoming this problem. Scouts ahead of a main body of troops are trained to shake snow from evergreen bushes, creating a dotted line as they cross c
15、ompletely snow-covered landscape. Even the scouts themselves throw lightweight, dark-colored objects ahead on which they too can focus. The men following can then see something. Their gaze is arrested. Their eyes focus on a bush and having found something to see, stop searching through the snow-blan
16、keted landscape. By focusing their attention on one object at a time, the man can cross the snow without becoming hopelessly snowblind or lost. In this way the problem of crossing a solid white area is overcome. 11 The eyeballs become sore and the eye muscles ache because_. ( A) tears cover the eyeb
17、alls ( B) the eyes are annoyed by blinding sunlight ( C) the eyes are annoyed by blinding snow ( D) there is nothing to focus on 12 When the eyes are sore, tears are produced to_. ( A) clear the vision ( B) remedy snowblindness ( C) ease the annoyance ( D) loosen the muscles 13 Snow-blindness may be
18、 avoided by_. ( A) concentration on the solid white area ( B) providing the eyes with something to focus on ( C) searching for something to look at in snow-covered areas ( D) covering the eyeballs with liquid 13 Emotion is a feeling about or reaction to certain important events or thoughts. People e
19、njoy feeling such pleasant emotions as love, happiness, and contentment. They often try to avoid feeling unpleasant emotions, such as loneliness, worry, and grief. Individuals communicate most of their emotions by means of words, a variety of sounds, facial expressions, and gestures. For example, an
20、ger causes many people to frown, make a fist, and yell. People learn ways of showing some of their emotions from members of their society, though heredity (遗传 ) may determine some emotional behavior. Research has shown that different isolated peoples show emotions by means of similar facial expressi
21、ons. Charles Darwin, famous for the theory of natural selection, also studied emotion. Darwin said in 1872 that emotional behavior originally served both as an aid to survival and as a method of communicating intentions. According to the James-Lange theory of emotions developed in the 1880s, people
22、feel emotions only if aware of their own internal physical reactions to events, such as increased heart rate or blood pressure. But this theory was not upheld by research on cats that had their nervous systems damaged. The cats could not feel their bodys internal changes, but they showed normal emot
23、ional behavior. John B. Watson, an American psychologist who helped found the school of psychology called behaviorism, observed that babies stimulated by certain events showed three basic emotions-fear, anger, and love. Watsons view has been challenged frequently since he proposed it in 1919. The mo
24、st widely accepted view is that emotions occur as a complex sequence of events. The sequence begins when a person encounters an important event or thought. The persons interpretation of the encounter determines the feeling that is likely to follow. For example, someone who encounters a bear in the w
25、oods would probably interpret the event as dangerous. The sense of danger would cause the individual to feel fear. Each feeling is followed by physical changes and desires to take action, which are responses to the event that started the sequence. Thus, a person who met a bear would probably run awa
26、y. Several American psychologists independently developed the theory that there are eight basic emotions. These emotionswhich can exist at various levels of intensityare anger, fear, joy, sadness, acceptance, disgusts, surprise, and interest or curiosity. They combine to form all other emotions, jus
27、t as certain basic colors produce all others. 14 It can be inferred from the second paragraph that those who are born blind_. ( A) have emotions different from those of sighted persons ( B) have some facial expression like those of sighted persons ( C) depend only on words to express their feelings
28、( D) seldom communicate with other people by means of gestures 15 The James-Lange theory of emotions_. ( A) overlooked internal physical reactions ( B) exaggerated the function of stimulating events ( C) faced a challenge from counter evidence ( D) offered a narrow interpretation of emotions 16 In t
29、he sequence of events for emotions to occur, which is next to the encounter of an important event? ( A) Interpretation made. ( B) Responses produced. ( C) Feeling stimulated. ( D) Action taken. 17 Emotions are compared to colors because_. ( A) they are classified in a similar way ( B) they have the
30、same influence on peoples life ( C) both of them may take on different forms ( D) both of them may have basic elements mixed in them 18 The main purpose of this writing is to_. ( A) arouse readers interest in emotional behaviors ( B) help readers enjoy pleasant emotions ( C) outline the development
31、of theories about emotions ( D) analyze various emotions and physical changes 18 The worlds population continues to grow. There now are about 4 billion of us on earth. That could reach 6 billion by the end of the century and 11 billion in another 75 years. Experts long have been concerned about such
32、 growth. Where will we find the food, water, jobs, houses, schools and health care for all these people? A major new study shows that the situation may be changing. A large and rapid drop in the worlds birth rate has taken place during the past 10 years. Families generally are smaller now than they
33、were a few years ago. It is happening in both developing and industrial nations. Researchers said they found a number of reasons for this. More men and women are waiting longer to get married and are using birth control devices and methods to prevent or delay pregnancy. More women are going to schoo
34、l or working at jobs away from their homes instead of having children. And more governments, especially in developing nations, now support family planning programs to reduce population growth. China is one of the nations that has made great progress in reducing its population growth. China has alrea
35、dy cut its rate of population growth by about one half since 1970. China now urges each family to have no more than one child. And it hopes to reach zero population growth, the number of births equaling the number of deaths, by the year 2000. Several nations in Europe already have fewer births than
36、deaths. Experts said that these nations could face a serious shortage of workers in the future. And the persons who are working could face much higher taxes to help support the growing number of retired people. 19 In Paragraph One, the sentence “Experts long have been concerned about such growth“, t
37、he phrase “concerned about“ is similar in meaning to_. ( A) worried about ( B) related to ( C) engaged in ( D) made a study of 20 “Family planning programs“ means_.

40、r and fewer children will be born ( C) they will be making a lot of money ( D) the number of retired people will become ever larger 24 The reasons for the population decrease covers as follows except_. ( A) later marriage ( B) late pregnancy ( C) national family planning policy ( D) China 24 When I
41、was walking down the street the other day, I happened to notice a small brown leather wallet lying on the sidewalk. I picked it up and opened it to see if I could find out the owners name. There was nothing inside it except some change and an old photographa picture of a woman and a young girl about
42、 twelve years old, who looked like the womans daughter. I put the photograph back and took the wallet to the police station, where I handed it to the desk sergeant. Before I left, the sergeant took down my name and address in case the owner might want to write and thank me. That evening I went to ha
43、ve dinner with my aunt and uncle. They had also invited a young woman so that there would be four people at the table. Her face was familiar.

44、mention that she had lost her wallet that afternoon. All at once I realized where I had seen her. She was the young girl in the photograph, although she was now much older. She was very surprised, of course, when I was able to describe her wallet to her. Then I explained that I had recognized her fr
45、om the photograph I had found in the wallet. My uncle insisted on going to the police station immediately to claim the wallet.
