Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.TextlWhen Katherine Chon was in fifth grade, she drew a "drcam tree” representing the path she hoped her life would take. One branch led to Harvard Medical School,which is exactly what her mother had hoped for when the Chons moved to the U.S. from South Korea to give their three children opportunities.Always a diligent student, Katherine started to learn medieine at Brown. But then she added a new limb to her drcam tree 一one that her mother still doesn't understand. Shocked by the misfortune of some South Korean women,Katherine joined forces with another Brown student to form the Polaris Project, now one of the largest anti-human-trafficking organizations in the country. "It was really hard for my parents,” says Katherine. u They had so many life stresses so their children could ger a great education and have a comfortable life.”The drcams of parents and children often differ, but the conflict can be especially painful in first-generation immigrant families where the parents have made enormous sacrifices- Lisa Park, an assistant professor at the University of California,San Diego, says that the focus of every family that moves to the United States to provide opportunities for their children is almost always on the future, with little mention of the circumstances that compelled them to move.And even though the parents arc the ones working 12-hour days, the children arc also under intense pressure to perform in ways that will justify the parents^sacrifice.The contrast between parents' dreams and children's realities can be pareicularly sharp for daughters who have grown up with almost infinite opportunities. Their mothers often came from places where opportunities for women were limited, which makes the daughers5choices even harder to understand. Mary Lugcmwa's parents encouraged her to study math or science at Harvard. She complied at first, majoring in computer science. But she is cuiTently working as a film producer for a nonprofit organization called Meaningful Media. "I sometimes feel guilty； she says, "having chosen tobe an artist, because I know that if I had chosen a scientific background, I could help my parents a lot more.”46.When Katherine Chon was a fifth-grader,・[A]she had a great interest in drawing[B]she had a clear vision of her future[C]she had an independent personality[DJ she had a desire to study in the U.S.47.It can be inferred form the text that Katherine's mother.[A]was disappointed at her daughter's decision[B]was shocked by the suffering of some womenLCJ failed to give her kids enough opportunities[D]failed to realize her own dream to be a doctor48- According to the text, in first-generation immigrant families, the parents feel furstrated if .[A] they fail to adjust to the circumstancesfB] they are forced to make great sacrifices[C]their children fail to focus on the future[D]their children develop against their wishes49According to Lisa Park, first-generation immigrant children.[A]avoid the slightest mention of their parents5past[B]focus on seizing chances for futuer development[CJwork very hard to justify their parents' sacrifices[DJare under pressure to fulfill teir parents' deams50We learn from Mary Lugemwa's case that・[AJher parents cherished opportunities more than she did[B]her parents9dreams and her reality could be balanced[Clshe had a quite different view of life from her parents[D]s hc enjoyed infinite opportunities in career developmentText 2Monther Against Drunk Driving (MADD) has launched a new public awareness campaign aimed at Canadian Justice Minister Irwin Cotier. "Enough is Enough" advocates dropping the Criminal Code's blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit form 0.08 to 0.05 percent, to "protect innocent drivers on our roads." MADD Canada CEO Andrew Murie thinks that lowering the BAC limit could result in a 6-to-18 percent reduction in crash deaths.But questions have been raised about the science behind that campaign.MADD selectively cites a report published in 2002 by Robert Mann of the Mental Health Centre. Mann, in turn, had got those number form two separate studies whose data was selected from Swedenand Australia. The conclusion in mann's report seem to ignore the Swedish authors' numerous warnings and cautions, as welll as the limitations in the Australian study. First, the Australian study examined the effectiveness of breath testing, not lowered BAC levels, on fatal traffic crashes. Also, that research was started in 1970 when "liquid lunches^were far more common. What's more, the Australian data varied:whereas the state of Queensland saw the 18 percent decline in fatal accidents cited by MADD's Murie, in neighboring New South Wales, fatal accidents decreased just 8 percent.It is also reported by the Ontario Community Council that the majority of dricers in alcohol-rclatcd fatal crashes arc repeat offenders with BACs over 0.15 percent - meaning that the problem is drivers who repeatedly get behind the wheel with BAC levels twice the legal limit,not social drinkers who consume a glass of wine or two.This makes MADD's concern seem wasteful, given the downward trend in alcohol-related traffic deaths.The Canada Safety Council, the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators and the Traffic Injury Research Foundation take issue with MADD's campaign.Even the Ontario Community Council has determined that lowering the BAC would mean more work for police and the courts. But to MADD's Murie, the math question is simple :"If you lower BAC limits, regardless to what level, you'll save Canadian lives.” Unfortunately, the math doesn't quite add up.51. MADD launched a public awareness campaign in order to.[A]criticize the Justice Minister[B]improve BAC measurement[C]restrict drivers9access to alcohol[D]revise the law regarding drunk driving52From the text we learn that MADD cites a report that.[A]justifies its new campaign[B]cs favored by the authorities[C]sums up major public concerns[DJ es mentioned in two other studies53It is implied in the text that Mann's report is unreliable because.[A]it was based on some unsound research[B]it got its data from two inconsistent studies[CJ it was written in conditions no longer valid[D]it ignored the limitations of the studies cited54The text indicates that MADD's campaign.[A] will not affect social drinkersLBJ may turn out to be of little value[Cl is goingto reduce governmental labor[D]has won support from somcorganizations55The writer's attitude towards the campaign is[A] satiricalfB] scornful[C]suspicious[D]supportiveTEXT 3A recent study demon started how pwerful a few words can be : Forty competitive tennis players were shown digital images of ball coming their way . Just before each ball appeared ,the players sawor head comments like "Good short" or "Bad short." The reactions times of players hearing negative remarks were measurably slower. And these were athletes who trained frequently to play a consistent game and not make unforced errors.What is the explanation? Negative feedback weakens anyone's belief in his or her ability to succeed. But if you can hold on to a winning attitude, you'll make a gerater effort and slso create positive drive. Confident people inspire others;opportunities seem to come their way more often. They become magnrts for success.Learn the importeance of giving yourself pep talks, and keep the voice in your head positiive. The best athletes9 success is rrely due to raw talent alone. It's because they're simply better prepared. They stay focused, they're willing to work as hard as they need to, and they keep the positive voice in their heads switched on.Perhaps the most important aspect of being your own coach is to do what any outside adviser - or a good parent, for that matter 一would preach: practice, practice, practice. Avoid individuals who suck your energy and diminish your confidcncc.Hang out with the people who see you at your best, and remind you about it every so often. Pessimists drag you down, as do whiners and critics.If there's one winning behavior that people building confidence should model, it's the willingness to get back into the game after a setback. Don't nurse your wounds.There are, however, important warnings. Panicking can compound a small misstep by causing you to lose your head and forget to think clearly. If you suffer a terrible loss, give yourself time to absorb the blow. Don't deny the hurt or try to solve the problem immediately.Gather your support system around you and simply get nurtured. Sitting around and thinking about your loss is the worst thing you can do to solve your problem.56.We learn from the first paragraph that・LAJ excellent performance often goes with well- trained players[B]excellent performance often goes with positive comments[C]high- tech methods help players avoid unforced errors[D]high -tech methods increase players' competitiveness57.People who want to succeed should first imagine themselves to be.[A]an observer[B]an inspircr[C]a creator[DJ a winner58.The phrase “pep talks” in Paragraph 3 means 'talks' which.[A]encourage people[B]entertain peopleLCJ impress people[D]interest people59.The writer thinks that you should keep company with those who[A]point out your mistakes[B]tolerate your weaknesses[CJ emphasize your strengths[D] understand your complaints60.In the face of a severe loss, the best thing you can do is to.[A] deny the hurtLBJ try to forget it[CJ solve it at once[D] accept it calmlyPartBDirections:Read the texts from a magazine section called " Letters n in which five people commented on a special report on new medicines. For questions 61 to 65 , match the name of each person to one of the statements( A to G ) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Ann Best:Your special report on new medicines showed there is thrilling promise in future "cures” for so many diseases that threaten mankind . But how will ordinary folks pay for these modern miracles? One drug company is hopeful that the savings involved in developing these medicines " will translate into pure profit for investors." This can only result in a problem for me: Shall I buy food,pay the rent or get the medicines I need?Tom Waaken:As a citizen who has been critical of drug companies because of the high drug price, I found that your report about the new medicines has softened my stand. The companies say they have to charge more for their drugs so they can do research for better medicines- Now that fve read about the newer and better drugs, I will gladly go on paying for my6L Ann Best62. Tom Waken63. Robert H. Kamm64. John J.Bagshaw65• Laurel Woodsmedications,knowing I am making a good investment in better living. Robert H.Kamm:We all want to live longer and healthier lives,but taking pills to rescue us from our self-abusive lifestyle only masks real problems and ends up costing us billions of dollars a year.We ought to be investing at least as much in trying to discover why millions of us behave in ways that arc not in our best interest - smoking , drinking,overworking,undcr-cxcrcising and generally doing things that are bad for our health. John J. Bagshaw:The cost of poor health is shocking and goes well beyond dollars. But the approach that offers the best solution, reduces risk, cuts demand and gets people healthy and fit is prevention. The U. S. Is a nation of chronic diseases.lt will get much worse, because we never deal with the causes. Individual Americans need to bring this issue to a boil and keep it there until we get a health -care system based on prevention. Laurel Woods:While I applaud the research being done in the field of medicine, I am also aware that goodthings can go bad in an instant. I have heart disease, and I had a negative reaction to a new treatment: the result was a long hospital stay. We should remember that caution has to be applied when being treated with a new medicine. Nothing will replace the human element that must be present in a caring medical community.Now match each of the people ( 61 to 65 ) to the appropriate statement. Note :there are two extra statements.Statements[AJ Prevention should always come before treatment.[B] A new medical treatment needs to be administered with caution.[CJ Pills often perform miracles on people who take them.fD] A change of behavior counts more than reliance on drugs.[EJ However good the new drugs, their affordability is firstand foremost.[F] New drugs should not be put onto the market until proveneffective.[G] Drug companies are justified to sell their products athigher prices.Section IV WritingDirections:66.You have read the following ad about a training course.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.Text1Passwords are everywhere in computer security. All too often, they are also ineffective. A good password has to be both easy to remember and hard to guess, but in practice people seem to pay attention to the former. Names of wives, husbands and children are popular.“123456” or "12345"are also common choices.That predictability lets security researchers(and hackers) create dictionaries which list com- mon passwords, useful to those seeking to break in. But although researchers know that passwords are insecure, working out just how insecure has been difficult. Many studies have only small sam- ples to work on.However, with the co-operation of Yahoo!, Joseph Bonneau of Cambridge University obtained the biggest sample to date—70 million passwords that came with useful data about their owners.Mr Bonneau found some interesting variations. Older users had better passwords than young ones. People whose preferred language was Korean or German chose the most secure passwords; those who spoke Indonesian the least. Passwords designed to hide sensitive information such as credit-card numbers were only slightly more secure than those protecting less important things, like access to games."Nag screens" that told users they had chosen a weak password made virtually no difference. And users whose accounts had been hacked in the past did not make more secure choices than those who had never been hacked.But it is the broader analysis of the sample that is of most interest to security researchers. For, despite their differences, the 70 million users were still predictable enough that a generic password dictionary was effective against both the entire sample and any slice of it. Mr Bonneau is blunt: "An attacker who can manage ten guesses per account will compromise around 1% of accounts.' And that is a worthwhile outcome for a hacker.One obvious solution would be for sites to limit the number of guesses that can be made before access is blocked. Yet whereas the biggest sites, such as Google and Microsoft, do take such measures, many do not. The reasons of their not doing so are various. So it's time for users to consider the altenatives to traditional passwords.26. People tend to use passwords that are[A] easy to remember [B] hard to figure out2017年3月笔试真卷第6页(共12页)[C] random numbers [D] popular names27.Researchers find it difficult to know how unsafe passwords are due to[A] lack of research tools [B] lack of research funds[C] limited time of studies [D] limited size of samples28. It is indicated in the text that[A] Indonesians are sensitive to password security[B] young people tend to have secure passwords[C} nag screens help little in password security[D] passwords for credit cards are usually safe29. The underlined word"compromise"in Para.5 most probably means[A] comprise [B] compensate[C] endanger [D] encounter30. The last paragraph of the text suggests that[A] net users regulate their online behaviors[B] net users rely on themselves for security[C] big websites limit the number of guesses[D] big websites offer users convenient accessText2John Lubbock, a British member of the Parliament, led to the first law to safeguard Britain's heritage—the Ancient Monuments Bill. How did it happen?By the late 1800s more and more people were visiting Stonehenge for a day out. Now a World Heritage Site owned by the Crown, it was, at the time, privately owned and neglected.But the visitors left behind rubbish and leftover food. It encouraged rats that made holes at the stones' foundations, weakening them. One of the upright stones had already fallen over and one had broken in two. They also chipped pieces off the stones for souvenirs and carved pictures into them,says architectural critic Jonathan Glancey.It was the same for other pre-historie remains,which were disappearing fast. Threats also in- cluded farmers and landowners as the ancient stones got in the way of working on the fields and were a free source of building materials.Shocked and angry, Lubbock took up the fight. When he heard Britain's largest ancient stone circle at Avebury in Wiltshire was up for sale in 1871 he persuaded its owners to sell it to him and the stone circle was saved."Lubbock aroused national attention for ancient monuments,"says Glancey."At the time places like Stonchenge were just sen as a collection of stones, ancient sites to get building materials.""Lubbock knew they were the roots of British identity. He did for heritage what Darwin did for natural history."2017年3月笔试真卷第7页(共12页)But Lubbock couldn't buy every threatened site. He knew laws were needed and tabled the Ancient Monuments Bill. It proposed govemment powers to take any pre-historic site under threat away from uncaring owners, a radical idea at the time.For eight years he tried and failed to get the bill through parliament. Finally, in 1882, it was voted into law. It had, however, been watered down; people had to willingly give their ancient monuments to the government. But what it did do was plant the idea that the state could preserve Britain's heritage better than private owners.Pressure started to be put on the owners of sites like Stonehenge to take better care of them.31. According to the text, Stonehenge in the late 1800s was[A] a royal property [B] utterly neglected[C] legally protected [D] a public property32. One stone in Stonehenge fell over because[A] rats weakened its foundation [B] farmers cut it to build houses[C] visitors carved pictures into it [D] visitors chipped pieces off it33.Lubbock proposed a bill to[A] push people to learn history [B] ensure government function[C] enforce ancient site protection [D] push visitors to behave properly34. When the bill was voted into law in 1882,it had been made less[A] severe [B] biased[C] implicit [D] complex35. This text is mainly about[A] a famous British Parliament member[B] the value of ancient heritages in the UK[C] the history and protection of Stonehenge[D] the origin of the Ancient Monuments BillPart BDirections:Read the texis from a magazine in which five women wrote to respond to an article on mother- daughter relationship. For questions 36 -40,match the name of each person to one of the state. ments(A-G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.Lucy:As the mother of two girls, I was moved to tears by your article, because it echoed so many of my own feelings. I don't think I should feel ashamed or that I am failing my child in any way because I feel like this. I think it's really normal and I love the way you have put into words what so many mums feel at this stage in their lives.2017年3月笔试真卷第8页(共12页)Anna;My husband and I both read this article and we think it is moving, thoughtful, and the ending is wonderful. People cannot deny that jealousy is a natural emotion between children and parents. It is wonderful to see someone emotionally mature enough to be so aware of their own feelings.and celebrate them. You have written what I am sure most mothers feel, but are too scared to admit.Beth:There is some form of jealousy between mother and daughter. I remember suspecting that my mother was jealous of me but kept it under wraps. I understood that my mother was not happy with my father and the good relationship between myself and him. The strange thing is years later 、my own daughter and her father have a good relationship with each other and I can feel jealousy creep- ing in.Clare:When I realized my daughter had become a young woman, I was not jealous. At first I felt sad that I had lost my little girl, then I accepted this and rejoiced in her loveliness. I feel protective towards her because it is too natural for young girls to meet men. Offer your child advice on things like wearing fancy clothes which men do see as charming, and hope that she enjoys her life.RuthI think that a mature person judges herself based on her own qualities. A loving mother does not compare herself to her children and advertise her unhealthy thoughts to the world in a news- paper. I am surrounded all day at work by hot, smart young undergraduates, many of whom are hotter and smarter than I was at their age. When they succeed socially and academically, I feel happy for them.Now match the name of each person(36-40) to the appropriate statement.Note; there are nwo extra statements.Statements36.Lucy37.

Ruth [A]You have spoken out the true feelings of mothers like me.[B ] It is helpful for mothers to reveal their hidden feelings.[C] Emotionally mature mothers understand their daughters.[D] I understand my mother now, being a mother myself.[E]You have expressed what most mothers feel but dare not say.

Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.Whenever I hear a recording of John Denver singing "Sunshine on My Shoulders," I find myself smiling, drawn to a love of the sun and outdoors I've had for decades as a Michigan native. Walking barefoot to the lake, playing shirtless in the sunlight, and breathing fresh air feel good. 4]Studics have found higher rates of high blood pressure among people with the lowest sun expo- sure. One reason may be due to nitric oxide, a gas whose production is stimulated when your skin is exposed to the sun's rays. 42 Vitamin D, which sunlight helps your body produce, is also linked to berter heart health. So walk outdoors for 15 to 30 minutes daily.43 Research on 280 volunteers there found that people had a reduced heart rate, and lower blood pressure when they walked through a forest than when they spent time in an urban area.One of the consequences of modern society is that rarely is our body in direct contact with the ground. The earth has an electrical current. 44 Although"earthing" or "grounding" is con- sidered alternative by mainstream medicine, research shows that the practice seems to be able to re- duce heart discasc risk. So, walk around barefoot whenever possible, let your backyard grass tickle your feet, and dig your toes into sandy beaches.45 A 2011 British review of 11 studies found that people who exercised outside generally reported morc energy and less anger, tension, and depression—all factors contributing to heart attack—than those who worked out indoors.「A] Exercising indoors is another option.[B] It reduces both heart attack and stroke risks.C1Excrcising outdoors may be more beneficial than working out indoors.[D] In Japan, walking through forests for healing has become a popular practice.[E] Direct contact with it may be a stabilizing force for good health.[F] As a doctor, I can tell you they are also very good for your heart.[G]You'll get greater health benefits exercising where it's green.Part DDirections:Read the following text from which 10 words harve been removed.

What a big 46 a little continued effort and determination can make.2017年3月笔试真卷第10页(共12页)Workplace expert Nan Russell, author of"The Titleless Leader: How to Get Things Done When You're Not in Charge," offers a number of 47 of people who were deemed failures—and then turned successful.Albert Einstein was 48 to be mentally challenged as a child and told he would never amount to anything. Need we say how that one turned out?Walt Disney was fired from the Kansas City Star because the editor thought he lacked 49 Chester Carlson's early Xerox machines were 50 by 20 companies before he finally found a business partner.Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before inventing the light bulb. There are many quotes from the great inventor that are worth 51 t o memory. Here's just one:"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how 52 they were to success when they gave up."So, while failure may not feel good, it's often an essential part of success, the trial-and-error that can lead to greater things. If you spend all your time 53 about past mistakes, you might not notice when real opporunity arrives,so by all 54 learn from your mistakes—then put them behind you, roll up your sleeves and get back to work.Here's one more quote from Edison for us to think about:"If we all did the things we are55 of, we would astound ourselves."[A] capable [B]close [C] combination[D] committing [E] contributing [F] creativity[G] difference [H] encouraged [I] examples[ J ] judged [K] means [L] rejected[M] typical [N] ways [O] worryingSECTIONⅢWriting(45 minutes)Directions:You should write your responses to both Part A and Pan B of this section on your ANSWER SHEET.Part A56.You found some problem with the book you bought from a US online bookstore.

Try to use your own words.Lee Rodriguez-Espada, 12,was late to the Wegmans Family 5k Sunday in Rochester,New York. To save time, her mom dropped her near the starting line before parking the car. Lee rushed to the starting line only to realize the race had already begun. She was told to just start running and quickly fell into pace with the others. Meanwhile her mom found a spot at the finish line, expec- ting to congratulate her daughter within the hour.Concentrating on running,Lee didn't realize until mile 4 that the finish line was nowhere in sight. Tuming to another runner,she asked how much further."That's when it struck me I was in the half marathon instead of the 5k,"Lee said afterwards. Instead of dropping out, she decided to keep running.Realizing Lee wasn't among the runners crossing the 5k finish line, her mom alerted race of- ficials and the police. A police officer eventually found Lee on the course of the Flower City Half Marathon. The girl said she knew her family was worried but she couldn't quit. She needed to fin- ish the race. And as she finally crossed the finish line,after running 10 miles more than she had planned, her mother cried tears of joy."I see her with a medal and I thought,'Oh my gosh, she ran the other one, like for real,'" she said."She decided to just keep running and not give up." "I'm really proud," said Lee, whose next race is this weekend.THAT IS THE END OF THE TEST.2017年3月笔试真卷第12页(共12页)参考答案及精析第一部分听力1-5 BACDA 6- 10 BCDDB II- 15 CDBBA 16-20 CDCCD21-25 ABAAD听力眼分录音材料Purt A1.M:Hey,Shelly, I am going to get some chips and water, what aan I getfor you?W;Well, I don't roaly nesd anything, maybe just a eoke, bet huny up, the movie will start soon.M: Dun't wory, I'll be righ back.2.

04年3月全国英语等级考试三级真题(2)
04年3月全国英语等级考试三级真题(2)SECTION Ⅲ Reading Comprehension（40 minutes）Part ADirections:Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1Bum rate is the speed at which a startup business consumes money. My rate would be $ 50,000 a month when my new media company started. So, I began looking around for individuals who would be my first investors. "Angel money" it was called. But when I reviewed my list of acquaintances to find those who might be able to help, I found the number got small.With no other choices, I began meeting with the venture-capital companies. But I was warned they took a huge share of your company for the money they put in. And if you struggled, they could drop you cold.As I was searching for "angel money", I started to build a team who trusted me even though I didn't have money for paychecks yet.Bill Becker was an expert in computer programming and image processing at a very famous Media Lab at M. I.T. With his arrival, my company suddenly had a maior technology "guy" in-house.Katherine Henderson, a filmmaker and a former real-estate dealer, joined us as our director of market research. Steve White came on as operating officer. He had worked for the developer of a home-finance software, Quicken. We grabbed him.We had some really good people, but we still didn't have enough money. One night, my neighbor, Louise Johnson, came for a visit. She and I were only nodding acquaintances, but her boys and ours were constant companions. She ran a very good business at the time.Louise was brilliant and missed nothing. She had been watching my progressclosely. She knew I was dying for money and I had prospects but could offer no guarantees of success.She told me that her attorney had talked to mine and the terms had been agreed upon. She handed me an envelope. Inside was a check for $ 500,000.I almost fell down. I heard her voice as if from heaven."I have confidence in your plan," she said. "You' 11 do well. You're going to work hard for it, but it' s satisfying when you build your own company."Who would have thought I'd find an angel so close to home? There were no words sufficient for the moment. We just said good night. She left and I just stood there, completely humbled and completely committed.46. For a newly-established business, bum rate refers to___________.A. the salary it pays to its staffB. the interest it pays to the bankC. the way in which it raises capitalD. the speed at which it spends money47. By "Angel money", the author refers to__________.A. the money borrowed from banksB. the money spent to promote salesC. the money raised from close friendsD. the money needed to start a business48. To get help from a venture-capital company, you may have to__________.A. put up with unfair termsB. change your business lineC. enlarge your business scopeD. let them operate your business49. The author easily built a team for his company because__________.A. they were underpaid at their previous jobsB. they were turned down by other companiesC. they were confident of the author and his businessD. they were satisfied with the salaries in his company50. Louise decided to lend money to the author because__________.A. she wanted to join his companyB. she knew he would build a teamC. she knew his plan would succeedD. she wanted to help promote his salesText 2Nearly all "speed reading" courses have a "pacing" element--some timing device which lets the student know how many words a minute he is reading. You can do this simply by looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes and noting down the page number you have reached. Check the average number of words per page for the particular book you are reading. How do you know when 5 minutes has passed on your watch if you are busy reading the book? Well, this is difficult at first. A friend can help by timing you over a set period, or you can read within hearing distance of a pub-lic clock which strikes the quarter hours. Pace yourself every three or four days, always with the same kind of easy, general interest books. You should soon notice your accustomed w. p.m. rate creeping up.Obviously there is little point in increasing your w. p. m. rate if you do not understand what you are reading. When you are consciously trying to increase your reading speed, stop after every chapter （ if you are reading a novel） or every section or group of ten or twelve pages （ if it is a text-book） and ask yourself a few questions about what you have been reading. If you find you have lost the thread of the story, or you cannot remember clearly the details of what was said, reread the section or chapter.You can also try "lightning speed" exercise from time to time. Take four or five pages of the general interest book you happen to be reading and read them as fast as you possibly can. Do not bother about whether you understand or not. Now go back and read them at what you feel to be your "normal" w. p. m. rate, the rate at which you can comfortably understand. After a 'lightning speed' reading through （probably 600 w. p. m. ） you will usually find that your "normal" speed has increased-perhaps. by as much as 50-100 w. p.m. This is the technique sportsmen usewhen they usually run further in training than they will have to on the day of the big race.51. According to the passage, a "pacing" device_________.A.is used to time student' s reading speedB.is. not used in most, speed reading coursesC. is used as .an aid to vocabulary learningD. should be used whenever we read alone52. In speed reading, looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes_________.A. avoids the need for reading fasterB. is not the same as pacingC. may seem unworkable at firstD. helps you to remember your page number53. When you are reading a novel, you should check your understanding of the content after_______.A. every chapterB. every sectionC. every four or five pagesD. every ten or twelve pages54. The purpose of the "lightning speed" exercise is to_________.A. increase your speed by scanning the text firstB. test your maximum reading speedC. help you understand more of the content of the bookD. enable you to win reading races against your friends55. The best title for this passage would be_________.A. Hints for Successful ReadingB. Hints for Speed ReadingC. Effective ReadingD. Lightning Speed ExercisesText 3There is one difference between the sexes on which virtually every expertand study agree: men are more aggressive than women. It shows up in 2-year-olds. It continues through school days and persists into adulthood. It is even constant across cultures. And there is little doubt that it is rooted in biology in the male sex hormone testosterone.If there's a feminine trait that's the counterpart of male aggressiveness, it's what social scien-tists awkwardly refer to as "nurturance". Feminists have argued that the nurturing nature of women is not biological in origin, but rather has been drummed into women by a society that wanted to keep them in the home. But the signs that it is at least partly inborn are too numerous to ignore.Just as tiny infant girls respond more readily to human faces, female toddlers learn much faster than males how to pick up nonverbal cues from others. And grown women are far more adept than men at interpreting facial expressions: A recent study by University of Pennsylvania brain researcher Ru-ben Gur showed that they easily read emotions such as anger, sadness and fear. The only such e-motion men could pick up was disgust.What difference do such differences make in the real world? Among other things, women appear to be somewhat less competitive--or at least competitive in different ways--than men. At the Harvard Law School, for instance, female students enter with credentials just as outstanding as those of their male peers. But they don' t qualify for the prestigious Law Review in proportionate numbers, a fact some school officials attribute to women' s discomfort in the incredibly competitive atmosphere.Students of management styles have found fewer differences than they expected between men and women who reach leadership positions, perhaps because many successful women deliberately imitate masculine ways. But an analysis by Purdue social psychologist Alice Eagly of 166 studies of leadership style did find one consistent difference: Men tend to be more "autocratic"-making decisions on their own--while women tend to consult colleagues and subordinates more often. Studies of behavior in small groups turn up even more differences. Men will typically domi-nate the discussion, says University of Toronto psychologist Kenneth Dion, spending more time talking and less time listening.56. The passage mainly discusses__________.A. how sex differences are demonstrated in social relationsB. how hormone determines sex differencesC. why there are differences between males and femalesD. why men and women have different social roles57. Which of the following is true of women's nurturing nature according to the passage?A. It is not inborn in any sense.B. It is inspired by women' s families.C. It is caused by social prejudice.D. It is partly biological in origin.58. The Harvard Law School example in paragraph 3 suggests that_________.A. women are not as competitive as menB. law is not the fight profession for womenC. women are as excellent as men when they are youngD. academic credentials are disproportionate to performance59. Which of the following statement is tree according to paragraph 4?A. Men leaders should consult colleagues and subordinates more often.B. Female leaders' success is due to their imitating male leaders.C. Men and women are different in their leadership style.D. Decisiveness is an important quality for a successful politician.60. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer_________.A. denies the difference sexes make in real lifeB. is prejudiced against menC. discourages women to be competitiveD. treats sex difference objectivelyPart BDirections:Read the texts from an article in which five people talked about energy and making use of it. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each speaker to one of the statements （A to G） given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWERSHEET 1.Jackson:Viewed from a scientist's standpoint, all of the energy contained in fuel either now or in the future becomes heat. Some of the heat is used directly or produces useful work. The rest is lost or rejected.That is to say, it is radiated into the atmosphere from the engines, motors, furnaces, power lines, television sets, boilers and all the other energy-consuming machinery that makes our wheels go around.Browning:It is necessary to improve the efficiency with. which we use energy in order to do more work. But improvement cannot come overnight, and there are limits beyond which not even science can help.According to the Center for Strategic and International studies, about three quarters of the energy we use to move things, including ourselves, accomplishes no useful work.Jeffrey:In terms of efficiency, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation may be using en-ergy more efficiently than private automobiles. Unless private automobiles can operate at near capacity, their overall efficiency is poor. For example, an urban bus carrying 36 passengers may achieve an efficiency of around 120 passenger-miles per gallon of gasoline. But buses are not al-ways fully loaded, and sometimes they carry no passengers at all.Vandenberg:It is true that buses can sometimes run without passengers. City trains seem to be very effi-cient, but they suffer the same shortcomings as buses and cost more. Except for rush hours, com-muter trains seldom run at full capacity. This wastes even more energy and is more than the management can afford.As a result, commuter trains are truly practical only in places where there are a lot of people.Nathan:For some people, mass transportation may serve their needs. For others, a combination of mass transportation and private transportation may be preferable. Better design and wise use of both mass transportation systems and private vehicles will play an important part in helping us make full-er use of energy for transportation.Now match each of the persons （61 to 65） to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61. Jackson A. City trains and buses have different faults to overcome.62. Browning B. The efficiency of the city train depends on the size of population.63. Jeffrey C. Public transportation is usually more energy-efficient.64. Vandenberg D. Private cars usually run at full capacity.65. Nathan E. No fuel energy is fully used.F. A combined means of transport can help increase energy efficiency.G. Problems of energy loss can never be completely solved.。
