11、 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 single line through the center. 10 There is no doubt that adults, and even highly e
12、ducated adults, vary greatly in the speed and efficiency of their reading. Some proceed very slowly throughout; others dash along too quickly and then have to regress. Poor readers in particular may lack the ability to vary their manner of reading according to the type of reading matter and to their
13、 intentions in reading it. A good reader can move at great speed through the text of a novel or similar light reading matter. He may be able to skim a page, picking up a word or two here and there, and gain a general idea of what the text is about without really reading it. In reading more difficult
14、 material, with the intention of taking in the whole of it, he will proceed more slowly, but even then he will vary his pace, concentrating on the key words and passages, perhaps re-reading them several times and pass more quickly over the remainder. A less efficient reader tends to maintain the sam
15、e speed whatever the material he reads. Consequently, even light reading matter gives him little pleasure because he reads so slowly. But this pace may be too fast for really difficult material which requires special concentration at difficult points. A type of reading which necessitates careful att
16、ention to detail is proofreading, in which the reader, in order to detect misprints in a sample print, has to notice not so much the meaning of what he reads as the exact shape and order of letters and words in the text. This is extremely difficult for most people, since they are accustomed to overl
17、ooking such details. In fact, considerable practice is required to practice this task efficiently and it can be done only by reading very slowly, and by paying comparatively little attention to the general meaning of the text. 11 The author claims that there is a difference in reading speed_. （ A） a
18、mong readers who have different experience （ B） among all the readers （ C） between the poorly educated and the highly educated （ D） among the highly educated people 12 A good reader is a reader who_. （ A） concentrates on the wonderful part of the article （ B） always reads slowly and carefully （ C） c
19、hanges his speed according to the kind of text （ D） changes his speed according to the interesting of the text 13 The author says that when reading a novel, a good reader can quickly read_. （ A） every part of the book （ B） the most wonderful part in the book （ C） the major part in the book （ D） the
20、scientific part of the book 14 The last two sentences of the first paragraph mean that_. （ A） a reading speed too slow for a difficult book is just right for a non-serious one （ B） a reading speed too slow for a non-serious book may be too fast for a difficult one （ C） A reading speed too fast for d
21、ifficult material is just right for a non-serious book is also too slow for a difficult one （ D） A reading speed too slow for a non-serious book is also too slow for a difficult one 15 Which of the following can be the tide of the passage? （ A） Reading and listening. （ B） Difference between highly e
22、ducated and poorly educated. （ C） Practice reading skill. （ D） Difference in the speed and efficiency of reading. 15 Television has opened windows in everybodys life. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result ha
23、s been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from allthe 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 politicians before an election. Better in
24、formed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count. Unfortunately, televisions influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are some
25、times 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. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do n
26、ot have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book 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 thirty minutes. Thats the time it takes on t
27、he screen. 16 In the past, many young people_. （ A） knew the effects of war （ B） went in for politics （ C） liked to save the wounded in wars （ D） were willing to be soldiers 17 Now with TV people can_. （ A） discuss politics at an information center （ B） show more interest in politics （ C） make their
28、 own decisions on political affairs （ D） express their opinions freely 18 The author thinks that TV advertisements_. （ A） are not reliable on the whole （ B） are useless to people （ C） are a good guide to adults （ D） are very harmful to the young 19 Which is NOT true according to the passage? （ A） Pe
29、ople have become used to crimes now. （ B） On a TV screen some problems can be solved quickly. （ C） People now like to read books with pictures. （ D） The adults are less violent than the young. 20 From the passage, we can conclude that_. （ A） children should keep away from TV （ B） TV programs should
30、be improved （ C） childrens books should have pictures （ D） TV has a deep influence on the young 20 Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insect
31、s. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages, I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic. Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of g
32、randparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and above all, the insects. I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investiga
33、tions. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil, reading about other peoples observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to
34、fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research. But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding and essential qualities required i
35、s self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of born worlds. 21 According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be_. （ A） full of enthusiasm （ B） self-disciplined （ C） full of ambition （ D） knowledgeab
36、le 22 The first paragraph tells us that the author_. （ A） lost his hearing when he was a child （ B） didnt like his brothers and sisters （ C） was born to a naturalists family （ D） was interested in flowers and inserts in his childhood 23 The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist
37、 probably because he thinks he_. （ A） just reads about other peoples observations and discoveries （ B） comes up with solutions in most natural ways （ C） has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic （ D） lacks some of the qualities required of scientist 24 The author cant remember his relative
38、s clearly because_. （ A） he was fully occupied with observing nature （ B） he didnt live very long with them （ C） the family was extremely large （ D） he was too young when he lived with them 25 Which of the following statement is true? （ A） The author believes that a born naturalist cannot be a scien
39、tist. （ B） The authors brothers and sisters were good at music and languages. （ C） The author read a lot of books about the natural world and the oil industry. （ D） The author spent a lot of time working on riddles. 25 As the Titanic was sinking and women and children climbed into lifeboats, the mus
40、icians from the ships band stood and played. They died when the ship went down. Men stood on the deck and smoked cigarettes. They died, too. This behavior is puzzling to economists, who like to believe that people tend to act in their own self-interest. “There was no pushing,“ says David Savage, an
41、economist at Queensland University in Australia who has studied witness reports from the survivors. It was “very, very orderly behavior. Savage has compared the behavior of the passengers on the Titanic with those on the Lusitania, another ship that also sank at about the same time. But when the Lus
42、itania went down, the passengers panicked. There were a lot of similarities between these two events. These two ships were both luxury ones, they had a similar number of passengers and a similar number of survivors. The biggest difference, Savage concludes, was time. The Lusitania sank in less than
43、20 minutes. But for the Titanic, it was two-and-a-half hours. “If youve got an event that lasts two-and-a-half hours, social order will take over and everybody will behave in a social manner,“Savage says. “If youre going down in under 17 minutes, basically its instinctual.“ On the Titanic, social or
44、der ruled, and it was women and children first. On the Lusitania, instinct won out. The survivors were largely the people who could swim and get into the lifeboats. Yes, were self-interested, Savage says. But were also part of a society. Given time, social norms can beat our natural self-interest. A
45、 hundred years ago, women and children always went first. Men were stoic. On the Titanic, there was enough time for these norms to become forceful. 26 According to the author, economists were confused because_. （ A） peoples behavior was disorderly on the Titanic （ B） people did not act in their own
46、interest on the Titanic （ C） most men did not act in their own interest on the Lusitania （ D） women and children could not climb into the lifeboats 27 The expression “won out“ in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to “_“. （ A） took the upper hand （ B） went out of control （ C） ran wild （ D） sh
47、ut down 28 According to David Savage, _was a critical factor in determining peoples behavior in the sinking of these two ships. （ A） social order （ B） place （ C） instinct （ D） time 29 According to the passage, which of the following is NOT TRUE? （ A） Both ships were expensive ones. （ B） A similar nu
48、mber of women and children from both ships survived. （ C） About the same number of people from each ship died. （ D） Both ships had a similar number of passengers. 30 Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage? （ A） Why Didnt Musicians Play on the Lusitania? （ B） Why Did Musician
49、s Play on the Titanic? （ C） Why Didnt Passengers Panic on the Titanic? （ D） Why Did Men Smoke on the Titanic? 三、 Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%) Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.
