Each passage is followed by some questions or unfi
12、nished 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.15 Some psychologists(心理学家) maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed i
13、n the brain alone, but that ones muscles also participate. (76)It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies. You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Fe
14、w people can listen to music without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is attracted to direct the orchestra (乐队) even though he knows there is a good conductor on the job. Strange as this behavior may be,
15、there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels“ himself into the music with more or less noticeable motions of his body. (77) The muscles of the body actually participate in the ment
16、al process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less noticeable.16 Some psychologists think that thinking is _.（A）not a mental process（B） more of a physical process than a mental action（C） a process that involves our entire bodies.（D）a process that involv
17、es the muscles as well as the brain17 The process of thinking and that of listening to music are similar in that _.（A）both are mental acts（B） muscles participate in both processes（C） both processes are performed by the entire body（D）we derive equal enjoyment from them18 Few people are able to listen
18、 to familiar music without（A）moving some part of their body（B） stopping what they are doing to listen（C） directing the orchestra playing it（D）wishing that they could conduct music properly19 The listeners way of “feeling“ the music is _.（A）the unnoticed motion of his muscles（B） participating in the
19、performance（C） bending an ear to the music（D）being the conductor of the orchestra20 According to the passage, muscle participation in the process of thinking is _.（A）deliberate（B） apparent（C） indistinct（D）impressive20 It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. (78) The meanin
20、gs of thousands of everyday perceptions, the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory. Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes n
21、ot only “remembering“ things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involving any change in the way an animal typically behaves. (79) Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old
22、child learns to swing a baseball bat. Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being
23、. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words“-ready for instant use. An average U. S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Conside
24、r, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight. The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a persons memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.21 According to the passage, memory is
25、considered to be _.（A）the basis for decision making and problem solving（B） an ability to store experiences for future use（C） an intelligence typically possessed by human beings（D）the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words22 The comparison made between the memory capacity of a larg
26、e computer and that of a human being shows that _.（A）the computers memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenagers（B） the computers memory capacity is much smaller that an adult human beings（C） the computers memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenagers（D）both A and B23 The whole passag
27、e implies that _.（A）only human beings have problem-solving intelligence（B） a persons memory is different from a computers in every respect（C） animals are able to solve only very simple problems（D）animals solve problems by instincts rather than intelligence24 The phrase “in terms of“ in the last sent
28、ence can best be replaced by _.（A）in connection with（B） expressed by（C） consisting（D）by means of25 The topic of the passage is: _.（A）What would life be like without memory?（B） Memory is of vital importance to life.（C） How is a persons memory different from an animals or a computers?（D）What is contai
29、ned in memory?25 Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of others they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money. Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. But people used to
30、 use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money, In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In some parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest kinds of money. Other animal
31、s were used as money, too. The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. People strung them together and carried them from place to place. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made
32、 of tin. Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver. But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. (80) The fi
33、rst paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than paper money used today. Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.26 Which of the following can be cited as an example of the use of money in exchange for services?（A）To sell a bicycle for $ 2
