Questionable payments can be 66. partedisolateddisconnectedseparatedinto three classes. The first is sums of money paid over to achieve political 67. objectivesperspectivesintentionsbalances.

As a result, some people argued recently that "industry is caught in a web of bribery" and that everyone is "on the take".Part 6 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(Each item: 2)Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from thefour choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowedto rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold thatthe car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable (可预见的)future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasolineengine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types. Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion (拥挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated (自动化的) highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will drop fromthe auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relaxand wait for the buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.86. One significant improvement in the future car will probably be ________.A. its power sourceB. its monitoring systemC. its driving systemD. its seating capacity87. What is the author's main concern?A. How to render automobiles pollution-free.B. How to make smaller and safer automobiles.C. How to solve the problem of traffic jams.D. How to develop an automated subway system.88. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?A. A rail.B. A retractable arm.C. An engine.D. A computer controller.89. In an automated highway system, all the driver needs to do is _______.A. keep in the right laneB. wait to arrive at his destinationC. keep in constant touch with the computer centerD. inform the system of his destination by phone90. What is the author's attitude toward the future of autos?A. Enthusiastic.B. Optimistic.C. Pessimistic.D. Cautious.Questions 91 to 95 are based on the same passage or dialog.Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long beenaccused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmerstry to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the foxpopulation. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group ofspecially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogseventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform ofred coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horseand hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But overthe last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because theythink it is brutal (残酷的), has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to passoff without some kind of confrontation (冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox's smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they arealmost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit (追逐) of foxes itself. But this yearsupporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.91. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes ________.A. for recreationB. to limit the fox populationC. in the interests of the farmersD. to display their wealth92. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.B. It is a costly event which rarely occurs.C. The hunters have set rules to follow.D. The hunters have to go through strict training.93. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game ________.A. by resorting to violenceB. by taking legal actionC. by confusing the fox huntersD. by demonstrating on the scene94. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to ________.A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxesB. forbid hunting foxes with dogsC. stop hunting wild animals in the countrysideD. prevent large-scale fox hunting95. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. killing foxes with poison is illegalB. limiting the fox population is unnecessaryC. hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violentD. fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the rich Questions 96 to 100 are based on the same passage or dialog.Are organically grown foods the best food choices? The advantages claimed for such foods over conventionally grown and marketed food products are now being debated.Advocates of organic foods—a term whose meaning varies greatly—frequently proclaimthat such products are safer and more nutritious than others.The growing interest of consumers in the safety and nutritional quality of the typicalNorth American diet is a welcome development. However, much of this interest has beensparked by sweeping claims that the food supply is unsafe or inadequate in meetingnutritional needs. Although most of these claims are not supported by scientificevidence, the great number of written material advancing such claims makes itdifficult for the general public to separate fact from fiction. As a result, claimsthat eating a diet consisting entirely of organically-grown foods prevents or curesdisease or provides other benefits to health have become widely publicized and popularamong customers.Almost daily the public is surrounded by claims for "no-aging" diets, new vitamins,and other wonder foods. There are numerous unsubstantiated (无确实根据的) reports thatnatural vitamins are superior to synthetic ones, that fertilized eggs arenutritionally superior to unfertilized eggs, that untreated grains are better thanfertilized grains, and the like.One thing that most organically grown food products seem to have in common is thatthey cost more than conventionally grown foods. But in many cases consumers are misledif they believe organic foods can maintain health and provide better nutritionalquality than conventionally grown foods. So there is real cause for concern ifconsumers, particularly those with limited incomes, distrust the regular food supply and buy only expensive organic foods instead.96. The word "Advocates" (Para. 1) is closest in meaning to which of the following?A. Supporters.B. Merchants.C. Inspectors.D. Consumers.97. What does the word "others" (Para. 1) refer to?A. Advantages.B. Advocates.C. Organic foods.D. Nonorganically-grown produc ts.98. The author implies that there is cause for concern if consumers with limited incomes buy organic foods instead of conventionally grown foods because ________.A. organic foods can be more expensive but are often no better than conventionally- grown foodsB. many organic foods are actually less nutritious than similar conventionally-grownfoodsC. conventionally-grown foods are more readily available than organic foodsD. too many farmers will stop using conventional methods to grow food crops99. According to the last paragraph, consumers who believe that organic foods arebetter than conventionally-grown foods are often ________.A. carelessB. mistakenC. mistakingD. wealthy100. What is the author's attitude toward the claims made by advocates of healthfoods?A. Very enthusiastic.B. Somewhat favorable.C. Neutral.D. Doubtful.Questions 101 to 105 are based on the same passage or dialog.For me, scientific knowledge is divided into mathematical sciences, natural sciences or sciences dealing with the natural world, and sciences dealing with mankind. Apart from these sciences is philosophy. In the first place, pure or theoretical knowledge has been sought only for the purpose of understanding. What distinguishes man fromanimals is that he knows and needs to know. If man did not know that the worldexisted, and that the world was of a certain kind, that he was in the world and thathe himself was of a certain kind, he wouldn't be man. The technical aspects or applications of knowledge are equally necessary for man and are of the greatest importance, because they also contribute to defining him as man and permit him topursue a life increasingly more truly human.But even while enjoying the results of technical progress, he must defend the value ofpure knowledge. Knowledge sought directly for its practical applications will haveimmediate and foreseeable success, but pure or theoretical knowledge will not. Let merecall a well-known example. If the Greek mathematicians had not applied themselves tothe investigation of conic (圆锥形的) sections, keenly and without the least suspicion that it might someday be useful, it would not have been possible centuries later to navigate far from shore. The first men to study the nature of electricity could not imagine that their experiments, carried on because of mere intellectual curiosity,would eventually lead to modern electrical technology, without which we can scarcelythink of contemporary life. Pure knowledge is valuable for its own sake, because the human spirit cannot resign itself to ignorance. But, in addition, it is the foundationfor practical results that would not have been reached if this knowledge had not beensought disinterestedly.101. The most important advances made by mankind come from ________ according to thepassage.A. practical applications of social sciencesB. practical applications of pure knowledgeC. sciences dealing with the natural worldD. the biological sciences102. The author does NOT include among the sciences the study of _________.A. chemistryB. astronomyC. economicsD. literature103. The author points out that the Greeks who studied conic sections ________.A. were mathematiciansB. were interested in navigationC. were unaware of the practical value of their studiesD. worked with electricity104. The title below that best expresses the ideas of this passage is ________.A. Technical ProgressB. A Little Learning Is a Dangerous ThingC. Man's Distinguishing CharacteristicsD. The Value of Pure Knowledge105. Pure knowledge is valuable for its own sake because ________.A. it is sought only for the purpose of understandingB. it is the foundation for practical resultsC. people are keen on itD. people are curious about it。

In the 1920s, parents emphasized _____ linked to conformity, with three top choices as“ loyaltyto the church” ,“ strict obedience choose traits opposing views.” and“ good manners” . Today, parents are more likely to to autonomy, such as independence, tolerance of This virtual revolution in values described by asociologist Duane Alwin, has far-reaching for parent-child relationship, and has nationwide influence.There are various reasons for this move greater individualism,“ Parents according to Alwin. “ It is an complex world, ” he says, want their kids to succeed in it, to survive in it. They know that good jobs_______ being able to think for yourself”.Another for this shift, he says, is the increased education ofparents today. “ Thefarther you go in school, the more you are encouragedto think for yourself and the more likely you are to see that asa value for your children.”The rising number of working mothers and single parents has alsomade self-reliance children desirable. Pressed for time andenergy, these parents often encourage their children to take more _______for themselves, dealing with homework on their own, transportingthemselves back and forth to school or minding younger siblings.Reading Comprehension (II)Read the following passage and then choose the best choice.There is no doubt that babies are more sensitive to stimulation fromthe outside world than either psychologists or parents had ever imagined inthe past. Thus it is for good reason that mothers and fathers have been encouraged to begin right from the start to exercise the baby ’ s senses.Without any doubt, a stimulating environment can have a positiveeffect on the intellectual capacities of babies.But it is doubtful that the larger the amount of early stimulationyou provide, the more beneficial it will be. The truth is that babies can beover-stimulated. Indeed, crowding newborns with heavier doses of new sensations than they are physiologically prepared for can sometimesinhibit progress. Some psychologists said, “ It is possible that the three-week-old baby, biologically too immature to reach for thebrightly-colored mobile, may become more upset by the presence of themobile than if nothing were present.”Observant parents have probably noticed that too much stimulationcan be very upsetting for the baby who is still not up to dealing with thepressure of all that input. Some simply become angry or cry. Others try topush away the irritating stimulus—the toy, the talking face, or the finger.Still others withdraw, turning inward to avoid the cruel assault in theirsenses, and some simply turn away and wisely drop off to sleep. Givensuch clues, parents are wise to limit the“ enrichment activity” . baby seems to be saying is “ Enoughalready! My nervous system isn ’ tquite ready for all that stuff.”1. We know from the passage that.A)the positive effect of a stimulating environment on the intelligenceof babies is doubtfulB) there is no reason for parents to exercise the baby’ s senses from th startC)babies are more sensitive to the outside stimulation thanpsychologists and parents had ever imagined.D)the larger the amount of early stimulation parents provides, themore helpful it will be for the babies.2. The italicized word“ inhibit in”Para. 2 most probably means“”.A) prevent B) bring about C) promote D) involve3.According to the passage, some psychologists consider that in thepresence of the brightly-colored mobile the three-week-old baby___________.A)is mature enough to reach for itB)may become very excited with itC)is indifferent to itD)may become unhappy and worried at the sight of it4.The author lists in the passage the following clues to theover-stimulation of babies EXCEPT _______________ .A)becoming angry and cryingB)pushing away the irritating stimulusC)remaining calm in the face of assault on their sensesD)turning away and falling asleep5. When parents notice their babies are provided with too much stimulation they should ______________ .A)stop giving babies any stimulusB)offer babies new sensationsC)impose the stimuli on babiesD)limit the amount of stimulation providedKEYS TO QUIZVocabulary and Structure1~10 CBBCB 11~20 CBBBD 21~30 CBBCA ABCDC CBDBA DCDADReading Comprehension IL J F M C I N B E GReading Comprehension II1~5 C A D C D。
