2、esponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 0 When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new o
3、r upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do. For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he c
4、an, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isnt sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he cant make things work out right, he doesnt feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he i
5、s very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it. If you look at children, youll see great difference between what we call “bright“ children and “not-bright“ children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with
6、 different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life he tries to get in touch with everything around him.

It is su
11、rprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the childrens language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the childs language skills increase. A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their pare
12、nts. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent sh
13、ould ask, “What is the doggie doing?“ rather than “Is the doggie running away?“ The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers. At the beginning of the study, the children did
14、 not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5. 5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary.

In the first place, television is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a comparativel
20、y cheap one. With a TV set in the family people dont have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre, the cinema, or the opera. All they have to do is to push a button or turn a knob, and they can see plays, films, operas and shows of every kind. Some people, however, think that this is where the dan
21、ger lies. The television viewers need do nothing. He does not even have to use his legs if he has a remote control. He makes no choice and exercise, no judgment. He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort on his part. Television, it is often said, keeps one infor
22、med about current events and the latest developments in science and politics. The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into ones sitting room. It could be argued that the radio performs this service as well; but on television everything is much more living, much more re
23、al. Yet here again there is a danger. The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm for us. We get so, used to looking at the movements on it, so dependent on its pictures, that it begins to control our lives. People are often heard to say that their television sets have broken
24、down and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time to do things and that they have actually begun to talk to each other again. It makes one think, doesnt it? There are many other arguments for and against television. We must realize that television itself is neither good nor bad. It
25、 is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society. 11 What is the major function of Paragraph 1? （ A） To arouse the readers concern. （ B） To introduce the theme of the whole passage. （ C） To summarize the whole passage. （ D） To state the primary uses of TV. 12 Television, as a sourc

28、e towards it （ C） how we use it （ D） when we use it 15 If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the que
29、stion. It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all
30、 because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 20
31、0 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write. Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings. And
32、 these have been sung and acted and told for many generations for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history“. Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more
33、easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful. 16 Which of the following ideas is not conveyed in the passage? （ A） Remembered history, compared with written history, is less reliable
34、. （ B） Written records of the past plays a most important role in our learning of the human history. （ C） A written account of our daily activities helps us to answer some questions. （ D） Where there are no written records, there is no history. 17 We know very little about the central Africa 200 yea
35、rs ago because_. （ A） there was nothing worth being written down at that time （ B） the people there ignored the importance of keeping a record （ C） the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fire （ D） the people there had not known how to write 18 “Remembered history“ refers to_. （ A） history b

40、 C 【试题解析】 本题主要考查考生对细节的把握。答案对应文章第二段，此段一开始就谈到 “在新环境中，一个聪明的人会考虑环境而不是自己或自己会发生什么 ”。所以选 C，关注在这种环境下该做什么。 【知识模块】 推理判断题 3 【正确答案】 B 【试题解析】 本题主要考查考生的推断能力及对细节的把握。答案对应文章的第二段，其中第四行写道：如果他失败了他并不会感到惭愧，而是设法从错误中获得启示。作者并没有正面提到 A，只是说不会感到惭愧。所以选 B，从经验中学习。 【知识模块】 推理判断题 4 【正确答案】 A 【试题解析】 本题主要考查考生对细节的把握。答案对应文章的第三段第二行“他们实际上是两
