10、omprehension (30%) Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a s
11、ingle line through the center. 10 Concerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a power struggle. Conflicts between parent and child often centre around the same issue. As children enter adolescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go where they please
12、, do what they please, and make decisions without parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide
13、them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive. But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is right. Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles of dress or
14、 hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions, use of the family car, dating, and sex behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given to the problem t
15、eenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, and nearly all grow up into “ solid citizens“ who fulfill most of their parents expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the “generation gap“ is narrowing. The vast m
16、ajority of teenagers share most of their parents values and ideas.

21、es that a man can squeeze into his mouth. Bite-sized cookies are packed in plastic. There is a good reason for covering each bite. The plastic keeps pieces of food from travelling in the spaceship. On the earth very small pieces of food would simply fall to the floor. But gravity doesn t pull them t
22、o the floor when they are out of the plastic in a spaceship. They move here and there and can get into a man s eyes or into the spaceships instruments. If any of the instruments is blocked, the astronauts may have trouble getting safely home. As astronauts travel on longer space trips, he must take
23、time to sleep. An astronaut can fit himself to his seat with a kind of seat belt. Or, if he wants to, he can sleep in a sleeping bag which is fixed in place under his seat. But be careful he must put his hands under the belt when he goes to sleep. This is because he is really afraid that he might to

This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body. The needles
29、are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them. To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training. But to be skillful requires greater time. The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This p
30、erson also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed. A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body. But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles. Today, the Chinese doctors ar
31、e trying to learn more about acupuncture. They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth. A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having a
32、cupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep, It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day. 21 Acupuncture is_. （ A） a medical op

37、r ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna(天线 ). But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between c
38、ell phones and brain cancer. “What we showed is glucose(葡萄糖 )metabolism(代谢 )(a sign of brain activity)increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna,“ said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medic
39、al Association. The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals. Volkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation(电磁辐射 )from cell phones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings do not shed any light on
40、 whether cell phones cause cancer. “This study does not in any way indicate that. What the study does is to show the human brain is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures. “ Use of the devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early 1955 s, with a
41、bout 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide. Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain cancers, but a large study by the World Health Organization did not offer a clear answer to this. Volkow s team studied 47 people who had their brain examined while a cell phon
42、e was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the phone was turned off. While there was no complete change in brain metabolism, they found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the cell phone antenna when the phone was on. Experts said the results were interesting, but
43、 urged that they be understood with great care. “ Although the biological significance, if any, of increased glucose metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require further investigation,“ Henry Lai of the University of Washington in the U. S. and Dr. Lennart Hardell of
44、University Hospital in Sweden, wrote in an article in JAMA. “Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects. “ They wrote. 26 According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE? （ A） Cell phone use is dangerous. （ B） Cell phone use causes cancer. （ C） The human brain i
45、s an electromagnetic field. （ D） There are about 5 billion cell phone users in the world right now. 27 Doctor Volkow was astonished because_. （ A） her research has shed light on her understanding of cell phone （ B） she found that cell phone exposure is harmful to human brain （ C） she found that usin
46、g a cell phone for about 50 minutes could influence or change brain activity （ D） human brain is not responsive to electromagnetic radiation 28 According to the passage, cell phones were launched_. （ A） in the late 1970s （ B） between 1955 and 1960 （ C） in the late 1955s （ D） in the early 1990s 29 Wh

48、B） Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Useful? （ C） Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Healthy? （ D） Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Weak? 三、 Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%) Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.
