One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses ,from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by other despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instructivesupport----financial aid, material resources, and needed services----that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.21.Interpersonal relationships are important because________A. they are indispensable to people’s social well-beingB. they waken people’s desire to exchange resourcesC. they help people to cope with life in the information ageD. they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.22.Research shows that people’s physical and mental health________A. relies on the social welfare system which support themB. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesC. has much to so with the amount of support they get from othersD. is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives23.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “cushions”(line 1,para.2)?A. Adds up toB. Lessens the effect ofC. Does away withD. Lays the foundation of24.Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of_______A. informational supportB. instrumental supportC. social companionshipD. the strengthening of self-respect25.Social companionship is beneficial in that _________A. it helps strengthen our ties with relativesB. it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakesC. it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyableD. it draws our attention away from our worries and troublesPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based the following passage:In the passed two years ,millions of Americans have suddenly embraced the bicycle as if it were a starting new invention. Annual bike dales doubled between 1960 and 1970, and there are nearly 70 million bikes in the United States today. That’s more than two for every three automobiles.Of course, the bike has been around for more than 150 years , and this isn’t America’s first bicycle boom. A wave of bike enthusiasm swept the land in the late 1800s and bike production hit two million unites in 1897. Then with the coming of the auto ,bicycling declined ,and for decades remained popular only with children and a few adult faddists(追随时尚的人).Now, national preoccupation(重视)with air pollution and physical fitness has brought the bike back to the forefront -----particularly with adults. More than eight million bikes were sold in the United States last year and a third of them went to adults. The year before, only 15 percent ofnew bike sales were for adults.26. It can be concluded that if people continue to concern themselves with air pollution and physical fitness________A. stricter air standards will be enforcedB. fewer automobiles will be soldC. Americans will enjoy better healthD. bicycle sales will continue to rise27.The bicycle is _______A. enjoying a strong revivalB. creating traffic problemsC. popular only with childrenD. replacing the family car28.The reader can infer that Americans are _______A. quick to follow the example of othersB. interested in comfort and luxuryC. concerned with the quality of their livesD. childish in the way they relax and exercises29.It can be inferred that in America there are ______A. more bicycles than automobilesB. more automobiles than bicyclesC. as many bicycles as automobilesD. fewer automobiles than bicycles30.What is the author’s attitude to this phenomenon?A. NegativeB. PositiveC. NeutralD. CompromisingPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Believe it or not, optical illusion (错觉) can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point. It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75 percent using a simple optical illusion. Bent strips, called chevrons(人字形), painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are, and thus drivers slow down..Now the American Automobile Association Foundation forTraffic Safety in Washington D.C. is planning to repeat Japan’s success. Starting next year,the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.Excessive speed plays a major role as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents, according to the foundation. To help reduce those accidents, the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest-----curves, exit slopes, traffic circles, and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight , horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half. However, traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bar.Chevrons, scientists say, not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they are but also make a lane speed to be narrower. The result is a longer reduction in highway speed and the number of traffic accidents.31. The passage mainly discusses______A. a new way of highway speed controlB. a new pattern for painting highwaysC. a new approach to training driversE. a new type of optical illusion32. On roads painted with chevrons, drivers tend to feel that_______A. they should avoid speed-related hazardsB. they should slow down their speedC. they are driving in the wrong laneD. they are approaching the speed limit33. The advantage of chevrons over straight, horizontal bars is that the former________A. can keep drivers awakeB. can cut road accidents in halfC. will look more attractiveD. will have a longer effect on drivers34.The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to ______A. change the road signs across the countryB. try out the Japanese method in certain areasC. replace the straight, horizontal bars with chevronsD. repeat the Japanese road patterns35.What does the author day about straight ,horizontal bars painted across roads?A. They are falling out of use in the United StatesB. They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of timeC. They are applicable only on broad roadsD. They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circlesPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Crime has its own cycles, a magazine reported some years ago. Police records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the season and crime patterns.The pattern of crime has varied little over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high during July and August, as do rape and other violent attacks. Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal: it is a weekend crime. It is also a nighttime crime:62 percent of murders are committed between 6 p.m and 6 a.m..Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, burglary has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6p.m. and 2 a.m on a Saturday night in December ,January, or February. The most uncriminal month of all? May -----except for one strange statistic. More dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month of the year.Possibly, soaring thermometers and high humidity(湿度) bring on our strange and terrifying actions, but police officials are not surer. “ There is ,of cours e, no proof of a connection between humidity and murder,” they say, “Why murder’s high time should come in the summertime we really don’t know.”36.The passage is about_______A. police recordsB. crime patternsC. the links between seasonal changes and the crime patternsD. the summer high in crimes37.For many years which of the following does not reach its high during the summer?A. RapeB. BurglaryC. MurderD. Other violent attacks38. In which month(s) are more dog bites reported?A. MayB. JanuaryC. DecemberD. June and July39.In which month(s) are the fewest crimes registered?A.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished 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.Passage OneA recent US best-seller declared that men and women are so different that we must be from different planets! Men, it was said, can ’t talk about their feelings. Thus, the author suggested that when a man is upset, a woman should just go shopping.Well, speaking for the one man I know best, I can say that I feel insulted, underestimated and stereotyped by such misleading generalizations. Not only do I believe the author ’s premise to be false, but I believe it contributes toe the problem by perpetuating a dysfunctional myth. In my experience, men, like women, can talk about their feelings if they are given the words to do so.This myth that men are insensitive is also reinforced through the socialization process. Buys are not supposed to cry, and if they do they aredenigrated wit labels such as sissy, pansy, and much worse, all of which are designed to shame them into acting “manly ”. In the man ’s world, one of the first things boys learn is that the expression of any so-called feminine feelings will quickly bring mockery, ridicule, rejection and other forms of social disapproval.Boys are taught to play with injuries and are admired when they endure pain. Men have long been taught to blindly obey in areas as law enforcement, the military and even in some corporations. A man who is trained to kill animals for trophies, to fight bulls for entertainment and to kill other humans in battle is a man who has been conditioned to alienate himself forms this feeling. And now it seems women are becoming more like men, rather than vice versa.Research shows that women, in general, are by nature more empathetic, sensitive and attuned to their own and other ’s feelings. But I have known some men who are more emotionally sensitive than some women. The preliminary scores on EI (Emotional Intelligence) tests also show that there is only a small difference in the composite EI score. From personal experience, I’ve found it easy to teach men to identify and express their feelings. And finally, I am living proof that not all men are from Mars!31. The author of this passage might believe that ______. A. men are from a different planet than women areB. men are taught from early age to behave masculine to meet social approvalC. more and more men are becoming sissy and sensitiveD. in tests of feelings men and women have very different scores 32. What does the last sentence of the first paragraph imply?A. The woman should still go shipping even though the man is unhappyB. A man should not be upset when a woman goes shopping.C. Men and women are completely different from each other.D. The man is upset because the woman spends too much money shopping. 33. According to research, women are by nature more attuned to their own and others ’ feelings, which means that women______. A. agree with their own and other ’s feelings easily. B. change their own and other ’s feelings easily. C. keep their own and others ’ feelings easily. D. forget their own and others ’ feelings easily34. Which of the following is in agreement with the author ’s point of view?A. Men and women are completely different as far as emotions are concerned.B. Women are talkative, and in contrast, men are completely not.C. Women are naturally able to identify and express their fellings, while menare not.D. Men and women are likely to believe that they are from different planets.: 班级: 姓名: 学号: 考场地点装 订 线35. The word “stereotyped ” (underlined in paragraph 2) probably means_________.A. with individualityB. dullC. a type of manD. a kind of sound effect.Passage TwoAnother cultural aspect of nonverbal communication is one that you might not think about: space. Every person perceives himself to have a sort of invisible shield surrounding his physical body. When someone comes too close, he feels uncomfortable. When he bumps onto someone, he feels obligated to apologize. But the size of a person’s “comfort zone” depends on his cultural ethnic origin. For example, in casual conversation, many Americans stand about four feet apart. In other words, they like to keep each other “at arm’s length”. People in Latin or Arab cultures, in contrast, stand very close to each other, and touch each other often. If someone from one of those cultures stands too close to an American while in conversation, the American may feel uncomfortable and back away. When Americans are talking, they expect others to respond to what they are saying. To Americans, polite conversationalists empathize by displaying expressions of excitement or disgust, shock or sadness. People with a “poker face”, whose emotions are hidden by a deadpan expression, are looked upon with suspicion. Americans also indicate their attentiveness in a conversation by raising their eyebrows, nodding, smiling politely and maintaining good eye contact. Whereas some cultures view direct eye contact as impolite or threatening, Americans see it as a sign of genuineness and honesty. If a person doesn’t look you in the eye, American might say, you should question his motives-or assume that he doesn’t like you. Yet with all the concern for eye contact, Americans still consider staring —especially at strangers — to be rude.36. What the author discussed in the previous section is most probably about________.A. classification of nonverbal communicationB. the reasons why people should think about spaceC. the relationship between communication and spaceD. some other cultural aspects of nonverbal communication37.How far people keep to each other while talking is closely associated with their ______.A. originB. cultureC. customD. nationality 38. When an Italian talks to an Arabian on informal occasions,________. A. he stands about four feet away B. “comfort zone” does not exist C. keeping close enough is preferred D. communication barriers may emerge39. A “poker face” (Line 3,Para. 2) refers to a face which is ________. A attentive B. emotional C. suspicious D. expressionless40. In a conversation between friends, Americans regard it as sincere and truthful to________.A. maintain direct eye contactB. hide emotions with a deadpan expressionC. display excitement or disgust, shock or sadnessD. raise their eyebrows, nod and smile politelySection B:Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the blank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Blanks 41 to 50 are based on the following passage.I have read The History and Geography of Human Genes by Luca Cavalli-Sforza but still have some questions. Even though the findings seemingly prove that races are essentially equal on a genetic level, there are differences unexplained. It was Darwin who first __41__ the theory of natural selection. His notion was that certain characteristics that help that species __42__ are selected over generations by that species. The species does not consciously make the choice for genetic ___43___. Instead, by surviving longer and being more fruitful, members of that species with the preferred genes gradually become the __44__ breed. We may, as a species, all have ___45__ our existence in one location, but this was long long ago. Factors such as climate and other survival necessities have created needs for ___46__. I believe these factors have contributed to races evolving with different __47__. This explains the __48__ such Asians receiving better science and math scores. It also __49__ light on why there are so many excellent athletes from Africa. I understand that this is a particularly __50__ statement. This is especially true in an age when races are mixing and the peoples of this planet are attempting to learn to live together.系: 班级: 姓名: 学号: 考场地点装 订 线Part III Vocabulary and Structure (10 points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part.

Sometimes I asked it a little differently, as in, “Who has good news?”or “Who has something good to say?”However I worded it, it always meant the same thing. It was a call for celebrating life, for focusing on what’s right and what’s good. And it was always fun! It was part of a life-affirming ritual thatstarted by accident in the 1970–71 school year and continued until I stopped classroom teaching in 2001 —thirty years of celebrating! By a conservative estimate, I asked one of these questions at the beginning of class about twenty-seven thousand times. And every time I asked, I got five or more positive responses. That’s a lot of celebrating!Believe it or not, this little ritual started as the result of two things that usually have a negative connotation, especially with kids: current events and homework. At the high school level I often taught courses in United States history and in American government. Whenever I taught either of these two subjects, there was a nightly homework assignment in current events. The average high school kid is woefully uninformed about anything unrelated to music, sports, and other forms of entertainment, so reading the actual news section of a newspaper was a completely new experience for most of them.Within a few weeks they got the hang of it and were actually surprised at their newly developed ability to carry on an intelligent conversation about what was going on in a world they hardly knew. Just as we were settling into our routine, a student’s innocent observation jolted me. He said, “You know, Dr. Urban, for being such a positive guy, you sure give a negative homework assignment.”Somewhat startled, I replied with, “What do you mean?”He simply stated that most of the news was bad news, and he added, “It’s kind of a downer.”He had me.We had a long class discussion about this, and I was surprised at how involved the students were. While we had several theories on the reasons for so much bad news, we all agreed on one thing: We needed to receive more good news. This is something I mulled over for quite some time. I was requiring my students to read all this bad news and at the same time jeopardizing my reputation with many of them as “Mr. Positive.”I was now more determined than ever to prove to my students that there was something to celebrate every day and to work a daily dose of good news into our learning environment. So the next day at the beginning of class I asked, “What are we celebrating today?”They thought I meant that it was some day of historical significance, and they should know it. So I said, “Let me ask it a different way: Who has good news? Who has something good to say?”Since this was the first time I’d started class that way, they were a bit mystified. I said, “Since you’re having such a hard time finding good news in the newspaper, let’s see if we can find some in our own lives.”They thought it was a great way to start class, and it developed into something that had a profound and lasting impact on both my students and me. Over the years of doing this, we heard just about every bit of good news possible. Some were small things, some were huge things. But most important was that my students learned to look for the good in everyday life and then to share it with others. This simple little ritual also had a buildup effect. Each day we added to the good news of the previous day, and so on. And each day my students increased their awareness of all the good news going on around them all the time. They looked for it, they found it, and they celebrated it by sharing it with others.(10分)(1)What was the ritual the author has performed in his 30 years of teaching?A. Playing a word guessing game.B. Teaching kids to think creatively.C. Inviting some good news from the students.D. Celebrating students’academic achievements.正确答案:C(2)What made the author start the little ritual in the first place?A.He trained students to have negative connotations.B. Students considered most of the news discouraging.C. Students were willing to collect news of celebration.D. He developed students’ability to criticize the media.正确答案:B(3)What do we know about the high school students in the author’s class?A.They made reading newspaper an interesting pastime.B. They did not know much about the entertainment industry.C. They had to learn about American history and government.D.

They are still changing it today.The Colorado River slowly cut down through stone to make the Grand Canyon (大峡谷). Long ago, ice sheets cut Yosemite Valley and the Great Lakes, and glaciers are still on the move in Alaska.Wind and rain storm hit the land from time to time. Fires sometimes burn down forests and destroy the homes of wild animals. This happened in Yellowstone Park in 1988.Dead volcanic mountains such as Haleakala on Maui and Crater Lake in Oregon are beautiful to look at. But there are several active volcanoes in the U.S., especially along the Pacific Coast. There are also many earthquakes in this area. Scientists can do nothing to control earthquakes or volcanoes. This was shown clearly on May 18, 1980. At 8:32 that morning, Mt. St. Helens (圣·海伦斯火山) in Washington state broke out. The top of the mountain was blown off.Over 60 people—campers, scientists, journalists, forest workers—were killed. Hundreds of square miles of forests were knocked down. In towns over 100 miles away, day suddenly became night. An ash cloud hid the sun for many hours. Towns and fields in Washington, Oregon, and Idaho were covered with dirty gray ash. Scientists knew that Mt St Helens might erupt (爆发) soon. But no one could say when. And no one expected the terrible strength of the eruption. Many people were surprised and unready. Harry R. Truman, 84, owned a small hotel in Mt. St Helens. Scientists had asked people to move away because the volcano was becoming dangerous.But Harry Truman would not leave his home. Now it is covered with many feet of dirty ash. A small cross stands above the place where Harry probably died. Perhaps it is better that he did not see the destruction of Mt St Helens, the once beautiful lake, and the forests. But slowly, life is returning to the dead area around the mountain. Grasses and small plants are beginning to grow again. Deer and birds have been seen.The land will never be the same as it once was. Perhaps Mt St Helens will erupt again. But this is all part of nature’s pattern of change, and man has little power to control it.(10分)(1)Which of the following is the most suitable title for this article?A. Wind, Water, Fire, and IceB. Volcano’s Beauty and DangerC. The Power of NatureD. Natural Force Shapes Beautiful Land of America正确答案:C(2)How many states did Mt. St. Helens cause trouble in?A. Two.B. Three.C. Four.D.

The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decision makes for equality and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the “battle of the sexes”.If the process goes too far and man’s role is regarded as less important—and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before , only in reverse.It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a 1ittle tired of “Momism”—but we don’t want to exchange it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are signs that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit—nor the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.The family is a co-operative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism(命令主义. has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is pertinent (相关的,切题的. not only to a healthy democracy , but also to a healthy family.(10分)(1)Sharing tasks and decisions in a family leads to ()A. momismB. neo-popismC. inequalityD. further sharing正确答案:D(2)If a boy and girl has grown up in a home with sharing tasks and decisions, he or she will probably ()A. believe that life is a "battle of sexes".B. accept equality as their parents did.C. prepare more fully for participation in a cooperative world.D. insist that man has a place in the home.正确答案:C(3)The author states that bringing up children ().A. involves a partnership of equalsB. belongs among the duties of the fatherC. is the job of schools and churchesD. is mainly the mother’s job正确答案:A(4)Psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers and specialists on the family ()A. are paying increased attention to man’s place in the home.B. suggest that we exchange "Momism" for a "neo-Popism".C. women should receive all the credits and blames.D. men should receive all the credits and blames.正确答案:A(5)The ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is ()A. related to either a healthy democracy or a healthy familyB. related to a healthy family as well as healthy democracyC. related to neither a healthy democracy nor a healthy familyD. none of the above正确答案:B4.A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called “take a mortgage ”. The bank usually lends money or gives a mortgage for twenty-five years. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $ 50 000. In other words, they will have a $ 50 000 mortgage.How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank. The bank will research you financial history and decide if they think you are a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have, what kind of salary you make, and how long you have had the job. They will also want to know how much money you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the-price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money forthe down payment.(10分)(1)What does a house mean in the United States?A. It is a dream which many people can hardly realize.B. It is so expensive that many people cannot really buy them.C. It is the most important property that many people try to buy.D. It doesn't belong to people if they can't borrow money from the bank.正确答案:C(2)If American people borrow money from the bank for 25 years, this means that the person who borrows _________.A. has 25 years to pay back the moneyB. has more than 25 years to pay back the moneyC. has less than 25 years to pay back the moneyD. has about 25 years to pay back the money正确答案:A(3)What does“down payment”refer to in the passage?A. Money borrowed from a bank as a mortgage.B. Money paid to a bank before the mortgages is given.C. Interest received by a person who borrows money as the mortgages.D. Interest charged by a bank on a mortgage.正确答案:B(4)Which is not one of the things researched by a bank?A. How much money the borrower owns.B. What salary the borrower makes.C. What kind of job the borrower has.D. What kind of house the borrower lives in.正确答案:D(5)The most suitable title for this passage would be _______.A. How to Save Money on the HouseB. How to Borrow Money from a BankC. How to Take a MortgageD. How to Buy a House正确答案:C5.How men first learnt to invent words is unknown, in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations -- the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience, and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but alsoexpress these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming(迷人的) and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar(粗俗的).(10分)One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thought and actions was that ________.A.they could agree upon certain signsB.they could write them downC.they could combine themD. they could communicate with each other正确答案:C(2)By “association”, the author means _________.A. a special qualityB. a joining of ideas and experience in the mindC. an appearance which is puzzlingD. a strange feature正确答案:A(3)Which of the following statements is true?A. The more we read and learn, the more confused we will be.B. The more we read and learn, the more ignorant we are.C. The more we read and learn, the more learned we are.D. The more we read and learn, the more snobbish we become.正确答案:B(4)In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able _________.A. to move our actionsB. to puzzle our feelingsC. to move men to tearsD. to confound the readers正确答案:C(5)The word “convey”(in Para. 3) means_________.A. deliverB. sellC. reportD. talk正确答案:A6.Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: the international contests encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred.There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sports encourage international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragicincident involving the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by lesser incidents caused principally by minor national contests.One country received its second-place medals with visible indignation after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey matches, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were convinced that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’victory was unfair. Their manager was in a rage when he said: “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.”The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension of the team for at least three years.The American basketball team announced that they would not yield first place to Russia, after a disputable end to their contest. The game had ended in disturbance. It was thought at first that the United States had won, by a single point, but it was announced that there were three seconds still to play. A Russian player then threw the ball from one end of the court to the other, and another player popped it into the basket. It was the first time the U.S.A.. had ever lost an Olympic basketball match. An appeal jury debated the matter for four and a half hours before announcing that the result would stand. The American players then voted not to receive the silver medals.Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national terms, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism.(10分)(1)According to the author, recent Olympic Games have ()A. created goodwill between the nationsB. bred only false national prideC. hardly showed any international friendshipD. led to more and more misunderstanding and hatred正确答案:C(2)What did the manager mean by saying,“...Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished”?A. His team would no longer take part in international games.B. Hockey and the Federation are ruined by the unfair decisions.C. There should be no more hockey matches organized by the Federation.D. The Federation should be dissolved.正确答案:B(3)The basketball example implied that ()A. too much patriotism was displayed in the incidentB. the announcement to prolong the match was wrongC. the appeal jury was too hesitant in making the decisionD. The American team was right in receiving the silver medals正确答案:A(4)The author gives the two examples in paragraph 2 and 3 to show ()A. how false national pride led to undesirable incidents in international gamesB. that sportsmen have been more obedient than they used to be。
