The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions, the basis for the decisions we make, and the ro
14、ots 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 not only includes “remembering“ things like arithmetic(算术)or historical facts, but also involves an
15、y change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed(嗅出)something suspicious in the grain pile.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices f
16、or storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words“string of alphabetic or numerical charactersready for instant use. An average U. S. teenager p
17、robably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information that the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.The use of words is the basis of the advan
18、ced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words. But while language greatly expands the number and the kind of things a person can remember, it also requires a huge memory capacity. It may well be this capacity that d
19、istinguishes humans, setting them apart from other animals.31 Which of the following is TRUE about memory?（A）It helps us perceive things happening around us every day.（B） It is based on the decisions we made in the past.（C） It is rooted in our past habits and skills.（D）It connects our past experienc
20、es with the present.32 According to the passage, memory is helpful in one s life in the following aspects EXCEPT that_.（A）it involves a change in one s behavior（B） it keeps information for later use（C） it warns people not to do things repeatedly（D）it enables one to remember events that happened in t
21、he past33 What is the author s view about computers and human beings in terms of intelligence?（A）Computers have better memory than a child does.（B） Computers are as intelligent as a teenager is.（C） Computers can understand as many as 100,000 words.（D）Human beings are far superior to computers.34 Wha
22、t is the major characteristic of mans memory capacity according to the author?（A）It can be expanded by language.（B） It can remember all the combined words.（C） It may keep all the information in the past.（D）It may change what has been stored in it.35 Human beings make themselves different from other
23、animals by_.（A）having the ability to perceive danger（B） having a far greater memory capacity（C） having the ability to recognize faces and places on sight（D）having the ability to draw on past experiences35 That cold January night, I was growing sick of my life in San Francisco. There I was, walking h
24、ome at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting a
25、nd San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blanket
26、s.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building
27、and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back where I d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be fo
28、und.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?“ I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in
29、his eye. “Is this what youre looking for?“ he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A. M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldnt get much sleep that night, but I had gotten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn t be a bad
30、place as long as people were willing to help each other.36 How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?（A）Cold and sick.（B） Fortunate and helpful.（C） Satisfied and cheerful.（D）Disappointed and helpless.37 From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy_.（A）solving her pr
31、oblem at the bank（B） taking part in various city activities（C） learning acting in an evening school（D）preparing for the first night show38 On her way home the writer_.（A）lost her wallet unknowingly（B） was stopped by a garbage truck driver（C） was robbed of her wallet by an armed man（D）found some home
32、less people following her39 In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?（A）Someone offered to take her back home.（B） A red-haired man came to see her.（C） She heard someone call her name.（D）Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.40 From the text, we can infer that the writer_.（A）
33、would stop working at night（B） would stay on in San Francisco（C） would make friends with cleaners（D）would give up her job at the bank40 In the United States, elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, mostly married. The atmosphere is usually very
34、 friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian(要绝对服从的)methods of education were discredited(不被认可)rather a long time ago so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of t
35、rying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on cooperation rather than competition throu
36、ghout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive: however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously
37、 quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.41 According to the passage, the U. S. elementary education is sup
38、posed to make children_.（A）sensible and sensitive（B） competitive and interested（C） curious and friendly（D）happy and cooperative42 Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think_.（A）children are reluctant to help each other（B） schools lay too much emphasis on cooperation（C） child
39、ren should grow up with competitive ideas（D）schools give little actual instruction to children43 The author s attitude towards American education can be best described as_.（A）favorable（B） negative（C） tolerant（D）unfriendly44 The American educational system emphasizes_.（A）material wealth（B） competitio
40、n（C） cooperation（D）personal benefit45 The word “sociable“(Para. 2)most probably means_.（A）fond of talking freely（B） friendly with other people（C） concerned about social welfare（D）happy at school45 Borrowing to start a business is not easy. Getting a bank loan, particularly for a new small business,
41、is like going through the eye of a needle.Banks favor established business people with a solid credit rating and a large bank account. They should also have experience in the business they propose to enter, and offer well-prepared business plans that show the ability to repay the loans. If you are n
42、ot such a person, then you need to double your preparations to convince the banker to lend you that much needed start-up capital. If your business is new and small, bankers will need to know as much as possible about you and your business.However, many small business owners often make the mistake of
43、 not being well prepared when going to the bank to apply for the loan. Surprisingly, many loan applicants don t even have the slightest idea how or when they intend to repay the money they request. Often they don t even know how much money they need. When asked how much money they want to borrow, ma
44、ny people give these two common responses: “How much money can I get?“ and “As much as possible. “ Is it any wonder that lenders say no?So the most important thing is do your homework before you ask for a loan.46 By saying “Getting a bank loan. is like going through the eye of a needle“ , the writer
45、 emphasizes_.（A）the ability to borrow from a bank（B） the importance of borrowing money（C） the difficulty of getting a bank loan（D）the start-up of a new small business47 Banks prefer to give a loan to those who_.（A）are in need of start-up capital（B） have the ability to pay it back（C） own an old and l
46、arge business（D）haven t borrowed money before48 What will bankers do before they give a loan to a new and small business?（A）Help fill out a special form for getting a loan.（B） Request the business to pay a small deposit.（C） Get enough information about the business.（D）Estimate the size of the loan t
47、hey will give.49 Some small businesses fail to get a bank loan because_.（A）the form they fill in is incomplete（B） their products are not technically advanced（C） the amount of money they want to borrow is too big（D）they have no clear idea of how much they need to borrow50 The writer advises that befo
48、re applying for a bank loan, the applicant should_.（A）thoroughly prepare（B） do some market research（C） learn a lot about the bank（D）know the upper limit of the loan50 Today is my first day in the office. My new employer explains the duties of the job to me. As part of my secretarial duties, I study
49、the filing system. There is no central filing system here. Each department has a separate system. My department does not have a file clerk. I do my own filing. There are many file cabinets. Here is one they call general correspondence at the beginning of the file which is an index. The general correspondence file contains all the letters my c
