Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and markthe corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecenter.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Psychologist George Spilich and colleagues at Washington College in Chestertown, Maryland, decided to find out whether, as many smokers say, smoking helps them to “think and concentrate. Spilich put young non-smokers, active smokers and smokers deprived (被剥夺) of cigarettes through a series of tests.In the first test, each subject (试验对象) sat before a computer screen and pressed a key as soon as he or she recognized a target letter among a grouping of 96. In this simple test, smokers, deprived smokers and non-smokers performed equally well.The next test was more complex, requiring all to scan sequences of 20 identical letters and respond the instant one of the letters transformed into a different one. Non-smokers were faster, but under the stimulation of nicotine (尼古丁), active smokers were faster than deprived smokers.In the third test of short-term memory, non-smokers made the fewest errors, but deprived smokers committed fewer errors than active smokers.The fourth test required people to read a passage, then answer questions about it. Non-smokers remembered 19 percent more of the most important information than active smokers, and deprived smokers bested those who had smoked a cigarette just before testing. Active smokers tended not only to have poorer memories but also had trouble separating important information from insignificant details.“As our tests became more complex,” sums up Spilich, “non-smokers performed better than smokers by wider and wider margins” He predicts, “smokers might perform adequately at many jobs-until they got complicated. A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose, but if something went wrong, smoking might damage his mental capacity.”21.The purpose of George Spilich’s experiments is ________.A) to test whether smoking has a positive effect on the mental capacity of smokersB) to show how smoking damages people’s mental capacityC) to prove that smoking affects people’s regular performanceD) to find out whether smoking helps people’s short-term memory22.George Spilich’s experiment was conducted in such a way as to ________.A) compel the subjects to separate major information from minor detailsB) put the subjects through increasingly complex testsC) check the effectiveness of nicotine on smokersD) register the prompt responses of the subjects23.The word “bested” (Line 3, Para. 5) most probably means ________.A) beatB) enviedC) caught up withD) made the best of24.Which of the following statements is true?A) Active smokers in general performed better than deprived smokers.B) Active smokers responded more quickly than the other subjects.C) Non-smokers were not better than other subjects in performing simple tasks.D) Deprived smokers gave the slowest responses to the various tasks.25.We can infer from the last paragraph that ________.A) smokers should not expect to become airline pilotsB) smoking in emergency cases causes mental illnessC) no airline pilots smoke during flightsD) smokers may prove unequal to handing emergency casesPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.There is no denying that students should learn something about how computers work, just as we expect them at least to understand that the internal-combustion engine (内燃机) has something to do with burning fuel, expanding gases and pistons (活塞) being driven. For people should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do. Further, students might be helped by a course that considers the computer’s impact on society. But that is not what is meant by computer literacy. For computer literacy is not a form of literacy (读写能力); it is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art.Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities. A case might be made that the competent citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers. But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to program one. Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career. While programming can be lots of fun, and while our society needs some people who are experts at it, the same is true of auto repaid and violin-making.Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult, and it gets easier all the time as programs become more “user-friendly”. Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen. What does the phrase “learning to use a computer” mean? It sounds like “learning to drive a car”, that is, it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that, once acquired, enable one to use a computer.In fact, “learning to use a computer” is much more like “learning to play a game”, but learning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game, whose rules may not be the same. There is no such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer. One can only teach people to use this or that program and generally that is easily accomplished.26.To be the competent citizens of tomorrow, people should ________.A) try to lay a solid foundation in computer scienceB) be aware of how the things that they use do what they doC) learn to use a computer by acquiring a certain set of skillsD) understand that programming a computer is more essential than repairing a car27.In the second paragraph “violin-making” is mentioned to show that ________.A) programming a computer is as interesting as making a violinB) our society needs experts in different fieldsC) violin-making requires as much skill as computer programmingD) people who can use a computer don’t necessarily have to know computerprogramming28.Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because ________.A) programs are becoming less complicatedB) programs are designed to be convenient to usersC) programming is becoming easier and easierD) programs are becoming readily available to computer users29.According to the author, the phrase “learning to use a computer” (Lines 3-4, Para. 3)means learning ________.A) a set of rulesB) the fundamentals of computer scienceC) specific programsD) general principles of programming30.The author’s purpose in writing this passage is ________.A) to stress the impact of the computer on societyB) to explain the concept of the computer literacyC) to illustrate the requirements for being competent citizens of tomorrowD) to emphasize that computer programming is an interesting and challenging jobPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness, if fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, religious commitment (承担的义务), self-improvement.Ask a bachelor (单身汉) why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. For commitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three-day vacation. I don’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.31.According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because ________.A) he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB) he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC) he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD) he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement32.Raising children, in the author’s opinion, is ________.A) a moral dutyB) a thankless jobC) a rewarding taskD) a source of inevitable pain33.From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from ________.A) hatredB) misunderstandingC) prejudiceD) ignorance34.To understand what true happiness is one must ________.A) have as much run as possible during one’s lifetimeB) make every effort to liberate oneself from painC) put up with pain under all circumstancesD) be able to distinguish happiness from fun35.What is the author trying to tell us?A) Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.B) One must know how to attain happiness.C) It is important to make commitments.D) It is pain that leads to happiness.Passage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.It’s very interesting to note where the debate about diversity (多样化) is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate (公司的) leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that doesn’t occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientist, the lawyers, or the business managers they will need.Likewise, I don’t hear people in the academy saying. “Let’s go backward. Let’s go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy (不拘一格选人才) “ (which was never true-we never had a meritocracy, although we’ve come close to it in the last 30 years). I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus had doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined the community, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus. Now, all of us feel the university is better because of the diversity. So where we hear this debate is primarily in political circles and in the media-not in corporate board rooms or on college campuses.36.The word “imperative” (Line 5, Para. 1) most probably refers to something________.A) superficialB) remarkableC) debatableD) essential37.Which of the following groups of people still differ in their views on diversity?A) Minorities.B) Politicians.C) Professors.D) Managers.38.High corporate leaders seem to be in favor of promoting diversity so as to________.A) lower the rate of unemploymentB) win equal political rights for minoritiesC) be competitive in the world marketD) satisfy the demands of a growing population39.It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A) meritocracy can never be realized without diversityB) American political circles will not accept diversityC) it is unlikely that diversity will occur in the U.S. mediaD) minorities can only enter the fields where no debate is heard about diversity40.According to the passage diversity can be achieved in American society by________.A) expanding the pool of potential employeesB) promoting policies that provide skills to employeesC) training more engineers, scientists lawyers and business managersD) providing education for all regardless of race or sexPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions:There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.The researcher organized an experimental tournament（锦标赛）involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.Observers noted down the referees’ errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number.The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyse the matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum（最佳的）distance is about 20 meters.There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.If FIFA, football’s international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues.He also says that FIFA’s insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may bemisguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.51. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to _______.A) review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World CupB) analyse the causes of errors made by football refereesC) set a standard for football refereeingD) reexamine the rules for football refereeing52. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was _______.A) slightly above averageB) higher than in the 1998 World CupC) quite unexpectedD) as high as in a standard match53. The findings of the experiment show that _______.A) errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ballB) the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errorsC) the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occurD) errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot54. The word “officials” (Line 2, Para.4) most probably refers to _______.A) the researchers involved in the experimentB) the inspectors of the football tournamentC) the referees of the football tournamentD) the observers at the site of the experiment55. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?A) The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.B) Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.C) A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.D) An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition. Passage TwoWhile still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great success in many states —at least in getting people off welfare. It’s estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.In the past four years, welfare rolls in Athens Country have been cut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past tow years took jobs that paid less than $6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent — twice the national average.For advocates（代言人）for the poor, that’s an indication much more needs to be done.“More people are getting jobs, but it’s not making their lives any better,” says Kathy Lairn, a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities inWashington.A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that between 1995 and 1996, a greater percentage of single, female-headed households were earning money on their own, but that average income for these households actually went down.But for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost as well without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge victory.“Welfare was a poison. It was a toxin（毒素）that was poisoning the family,” says Robert Rector, a welfare-reform policy analyst. “The reform in changing the moral climate in low-income communities. It’s beginning to rebuild the work ethic（道德观）, which is much more important.”Mr. Rector and o thers argued that once “the habit of dependency is cracked,” then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.56. From the passage, it can be seen that the author _______.A) believes the reform has reduced the government’s burdenB) insists that welfare reform is doing little good for the poorC) is overenthusiastic about the success of welfare reformD) considers welfare reform to be fundamentally successful57. Why aren’t people enjoying better lives when they have jobs?A) Because many families are divorced.B) Because government aid is now rare.C) Because their wages are low.D) Because the cost of living is rising.58. What is worth noting from the example of Athens County is that _______.A) greater efforts should b e made to improve people’s living standardsB) 70 percent of the people there have been employed for two yearsC) 50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfareD) the living standards of most people are going down59. From the passage we know that welfare reform aims at _______.A) saving welfare fundsB) rebuilding the work ethicC) providing more jobsD) cutting government expenses60. According to the passage before the welfare reform was carried out, _______.A) the poverty rate was loverB) average living standards were higherC) the average worker was paid higher wagesD) the poor used to rely on government aidPassage ThreeAmericans are pound of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respectfew things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian（百姓的）clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. the television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity（身份）than to step out of uniform?Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible（可减税的）. They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.61. It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality _______.A) still judge a man by his clothesB) hold the uniform in such high regardC) enjoy having a professional identityD) will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform62. People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform _______.A) suggests quality workB) discards his social identityC) appears to be more practicalD) looks superior to a person in civilian clothes63. The chief function of a uniform is to _______.A) provide practical benefits to the wearerB) make the wearer catch the pubic eyeC) inspire the wearer’s confidence in himselfD) provide the wearer with a professional identity64. According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _______.A) are usually helpfulB) have little or no individual freedomC) tend to lose their individualityD) enjoy greater popularity65. The best title for this passage would be _______.A) Uniforms and SocietyB) The Importance of Wearing a UniformC) Practical Benefits of Wearing a UniformD) Advantages and Disadvantages of UniformsPassage FourSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one 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（困难）. 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（挡开）illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, andco-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others 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（转移…注意力）us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support —financial aid, material resources, and needed services — that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.66. Interpersonal relationships are important because _______.A) they are indispensable to people’s social well-beingB) they awaken people’s desire to exchange resourcesC) they help people to cope with life in the information eraD) they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.67. Research shows that people’s physical and mental health _______.A) relies on the social welfare systems which support themB) has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersC) depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesD) is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives68. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “cushions” (Line 1, Para.2)?A) Adds up to.B) Does away with.C) Lessens the effect of.D) Lays the foundation for.69. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of _______.A) instrumental supportB) informational supportC) social companionshipD) the strengthening of self-respect70. 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 troublesPart IV Translation (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, there are four items, each consisting of one or two sentences for you to translate into Chinese.

Choose the one that you think is the correct answer.TEXT APeople have been painting pictures for at least 30,000 years. The earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals. They used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill. Pictures of this kind have been found on the walls of caves in France and Spain. No one knows why they were painted there. Perhaps the painter thought that their pictures would help them to catch these animals. Or perhaps human beings have always wanted to tell stories in pictures.About 5,000 years ago the Egyptians and other people in the Near East began to use pictures as a kind of writing. They drew simple pictures or signs to represent things and ideas, and also to represent the sounds of their language. The signs these people used became a kind of alphabet.The Egyptians used to record information and to tell stories by putting picture-writing and pictures together. When an important person died, scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried. Some of these pictures are like modem comic-strip (连环漫画) stories. It has been said that Egypt is the home of the comic strip. But, for the Egyptians, pictures still had magic power. So they did not try to make their way of writing simple. The ordinary people could not understand it.By the year 1,000 BC, people who lived in the area around the Mediterranean Sea bad developed a simpler system of writing. The signs they used were very easy to write, and there were fewer of them than in the Egyptian system. This was because each sign, or letter, represented only one sound in their language. The Greeks developed this system and formed the letter of the Greek alphabet. The Ronmans copied the idea, and the Roman alphabet is now used all over the world.These days, we can write down a story, or record information, without using pictures. But we still need pictures of all kinds, drawings, photographs, signs and diagrams. We find them everywhere: in books and newspapers, in the street, and on the walls of the places where we live and work. Pictures help us to understand and remember things more easily, and they can make a story much more interesting. 66. Pictures of animals were painted on the walls of caves in France and Spain because[A] the hunters wanted to see the pictures[B] the painters were animal lover[C] the painters wanted to show imagination[D] the pictures were thought to be helpful67. The Greek alphabet was simpler than the Egyptian system for all the following reasons EXCEPT[A] the former was easy to write [B] there were fewer signs in the former[C] the former was easy to pronounce [D] each sign stood for only one sound68. Which of the following statements is TRUE?[A] The Egyptian signs later became a particular alphabet.[B] The Egyptians liked to write comic-strip stories.[C] The Roman alphabet was developed from the Egyptian one.[D] The Greeks copied their writing system from the Egyptians.69. In the paragraph, the author thinks that pictures __[A] should be made comprehensible [B] should be made interesting[C] are of much use in our life [D] are disappearing from our lifeTEXT BHuman beings have used tools for a very long time. In some parts of the world you can still find tools that people used more titan two million years ago. They made these tools by hitting one stone against another. In this way they broke off pieces from one of the stones. These chips of stone were usually sharp on one side. People used them for cutting meat and skin from dead animals and also for malting other tools out of wood. Human beings needed to use tools because they did not have sharp teeth like other meat--eating animals, such as lions and tigers. Tools helped people to get food more easily.Working with tools also helped to develop human intelligence. The human brain grew bigger, and human beings began to invent more and more tools and machines. The stone chip was one of the flint tools that people used, and perhaps it is the most important. Some scientists say that it was the key to the success of mankind.Since 1960 a new kind of tool tins appeared. This is the silicon chip--a little chip of silicon crystal (硅晶体). It is smaller than a finger-nail, but it can store more than a million "bits" of information. It is an electronic brain.Every year these chips get cleverer, but their size gets smaller, and their cost gets less. They are used in watches, calculators and intelligent machines that we can use in many ways.In the future we will not need to work with tools in the old way. Machines will do everything for us. They will even talk and play games with us. People will have plenty of spare time. But what will they do with it?Human beings used stone chips for more than two million yearn, but human life changed very little in that time. We have used silicon chips for only a few years, but life is changing faster every day. What will life be like twenty years from now? What will the world be like two million years from now?70. The stone chip is thought to be the most important tool because it__[A] was one of the first tools [B] developed human capabilities[C] led to the invention of machines [D] was crucial to the development of mankind71. At the end of the passage the author seems to suggest that life in future is __[A] disastrous [B] unpredictable [C] exciting [D] colorfulTEXT CA century ago in the United States, when an individual brought suit against a company, public opinion tended to protect that company. But perhaps this phenomenon was most striking in the case of the railroads. Neatly haft of all negligence( 过失) cases decided through 1896 involved railroads. And the railroads usually won.Most of the cases were derided in state courts, when the railroads had the climate of the times on their sides. Government supported the railroad industry; the progress railroads represented was not to be slowed down by requiring them often to pay damages to those unlucky enough to be hurt working for them.Court decisions always went against railroad workers. A Mr. Farwell, an engineer, lost his right hand when a switchman's negligence ran his engine off the track. The court reasoned, that since Farwell had taken the job of an engineer voluntarily at good pay, he had accepted the risk. Therefore the accident, though avoidable had the switchmen acted carefully, was a "pure accident". In effect a railroad could never be held responsible for injury to one employee caused by the mistake of another.In one case where a Pennsylvania Railroad worker had started a fire at a warehouse and the fire had spread several blocks, causing widespread damage, a jury found the company responsible for all the damage. But the court overturned the jury's decision because it argued that the railroad's negligence was the immediate cause of damage only to the nearest buildings. Beyond them the connection was too remote to consider.As the century were on, public sentiment began to turn against the railroads--against their economic and political power and high fares as well as against their callousness(无情) toward individuals.72. Which of the following is NOT tree in Farwell's case?[A] Farwell was injured because he negligently ran his engine off the track.[B] Farwell would not have been injured ff the switchman had been more careful.[C] The court argued that the victim had accepted the risk since he had willingly taken his job.[D] The court decided that the railroad should not be held responsible.73. What must have happened after the fire case was settled in court?[A] The railroad compensated for the damage to the immediate buildings.[B] The railroad compensated for all the damage by the fire.[C] The railroad paid nothing for the damaged building.[D] The railroad worker paid for the property damage himself.74. The following aroused public resentment EXCEPT[A] political power [B] high fares [C] economic loss [D] indifference75. What does the passage mainly discuss?[A] Railroad oppressing individuals in the US. [B] History of the US railroads. [C] Railroad workers' working rights. [D] Law cases concerning the railroads.TEXT DHawaii's native minority is demanding a greater degree of sovereignty over its own affairs. But much of the archipelago's political establishment, which includes the White Americans who dominated until the second world war and people of Japanese, Chinese mint Filipino origin, is opposed to the idea.The islands were annexed by the US in 1898 and since then Hawaii's native people have fared worse than any of its other ethnic groups. They make up over 60 percent of the state's homeless, suffer higher levels of unemployment and their life span is five years less than the average Hawaiians. They are the only major US native group without some degree of autonomy.But a sovereignty advisory committee set up by Hawaii's first native governor, John Waihee, has given the natives' cause a major boost by recommending that the Hawaiian natives decide by themselves whether to re-establish a sovereign Hawaiian nation.However, the Hawaiian natives are not united in their demands. Some just want greater autonomy within the state--as enjoyed by many American Indian natives over matters such as education. This is a position supported by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA), a state agency set up in 1978 to represent the natives' interests and which has now become the moderate face of the native sovereignty movement. Moreambitious is the Ka Lahui group, which declared itself a new nation in 1987 and wants full, official independence from the US.But if Hawaiian natives are given greater autonomy, it is far from dear how many people this will apply to. The state authorities only count as native those people with more than 50 percent Hawaiian blood.Native demands are not just based on political grievances, though. They also want their claim on 660,000 hectares of Hawaiian crown land to be accepted. It is on this issue that native groups are facing most opposition from the state authorities. In 1993, the state government paid the OHA US $136 million in back rent on the crown land and many officials say that by accepting this payment the agency has given up its claims to legally own the land. The OHA has vigorously disputed this.76. Hawaii's native minority refers to[A] Hawaii's ethnic groups [B] people of Filipino origin[C] the Ka Lahui group [D] people with 50% Hawaiian blood77. Which of the following statements is tree of the Hawaiian natives?[A] Sixty percent of them are homeless or unemployed.[B] Their life span is 5 years shorter than average Americans.[C] Their life is worse than that of other ethnic groups in Hawaii.[D] They are the only native group without sovereignty.78. Which of the following is NOT true of John Waihee?[A] He is Hawaii's flint native govemor.[B] He has set up a sovereignty advisory committee.[C] He suggested the native people decide for themselves.[D] He is leading the local independence movement.79. Which of the following groups holds a less radical attitude on the matter of sovereignty?.[A] American Indian natives. [B] Office of Hawaiian Affairs.[C] The Ka Lahui group. [D] The Hawaiian natives.80. Various native Hawaiians demand all the following EXCEPT[A] a greater autonomy within the state [B] more back rent on the crown land[C] a claim on the Hawaiian crown land [D] full independence from the USSECTION B SKIMMING & SCANNINGIn this section there are six passages with a total of ten multiple choice questions. Skim or scan them as required and then mark your answers on your answer sheet. TEXT EFirst read the following question.81. The passage is mainly about __ of outdoor advertising.[A] problems [B] features [C] attraction [D] locationNow, read TEXT E quickly and mark your answer an your answer sheet.Outdoor advertising provides the advertiser with the largest colorful display of his product, package, trade mark, and slogan. It embraces the most spectacular use of light and animation in order to attract a passer-by and deliver a message. It provides visual continuity to a campaign that may also be appearing in other media.Outdoor advertising has a high degree of geographic flexibility. An advertiser can use it nationally, by region, by markets, and even by specific locations within those markets.Outdoor advertising can be memorable. During an interview eight people out of ten revealed that they remembered specific outdoor posters.A problem in using outdoor advertising is that of getting reliable data on the number of people who actually see an advertising. It may also take time to negotiate for the space for a specific outdoor advertising location, to print the posters, or to paint the board.TEXT FFirst read the following question.82. The passage focuses on Oxford's[A] past and present [B] modem development[C] present and future [D] traditional structureNow, read TEXT F quickly and mark your answer on your answer sheet.For centuries Oxford has been at Britain's intellectual heart, perhaps the most prestigious among Europe's many ancient universities. Oxford has attracted students and scholars from all over the world who have gone on to achieve the highest positions in their countries. Alumni includes numerous famous scientists, literary figures, and overseas politicians.As a place of learning Oxford's beginnings go back to the Middle Ages. Legend has it that Alfred laid its foundations at the end of the ninth century. Certainly by the 12th century scholars were teaching in the town and their fame had spread to the Continent, particularly to the Sorbonnes in Paris, then Europe's greatest center of learning. A group of English scholars left the French capital in 1167 to settle in Oxford and the place became a magnet for students and teachers from all over Britain. Today Oxford is a large, busy city, but the ancient university buildings in the center have remained largely untouched by the urban expansion.While most old universities have modernized radically to accommodate their growing populations, Oxford has managed to expand while still preserving its traditional structure. The 36 existing colleges are independent, self-governing institutions operating under the umbrella of the University of Oxford.TEXT GFirst read the following question.83. The figures in the second paragraph are used for the following purposes EXCEPT[A] prediction [B] contrast [C] definition [D] explanationNow, read TEXT G quickly and mark your answer on your answer sheet.The industrial societies have been extremely productive during the last two centuries. The economic advance has been remarkable. During this relatively short period of time, greater changes in people's living conditions have occurred than in the thousands of years which preceded.During the past 200 years the world population has increased 6 times, the annual world output has increased 80 times, and the distance a person can travel has gone up 1,000 times. There has also been much recent progress in art, culture, learning and science. Such changes have led to a high rate of production and growth of the economy.Economists fear that within the next 100 to 150 yearn, the earth's resources will become very scarce. Their feats are partly justified, but we should not be afraid. Industrial civilization adapts to new knowledge. By advancing knowledge, we do not only create new forms of resources, but we also find ways to economize their use. Advanced modem knowledge can feed the hungry people of the world and improve their standard of living.TEXT HFirst read the following questions.84.

At the speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third-floor windows. Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to ￡50. it will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver’s responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you reversing your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear you seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.21.

This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise—and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon.Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down.With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations.Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect (智能) and emotion, and determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculties.)Contraction of front and side parts—as cells die off—was observed I some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty- and seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age—using the head.The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.Matsuzawa’s findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain,” he says, “Think hard and engage in conversation. Don’t rely on pocket calculators.”26. The team of doctors wanted to find out ________.A) why certain people age sooner than othersB) how to make people live longerC) the size of certain people’s brainsD) which people are most intelligent27. On what are their research findings based?A) A survey of farmers in northern Japan.B) Tests performed on a thousand old people.C) The study of brain volumes of different peopleD) The latest development of computer technology.28. The doctor’s test show that ________.A) our brains shrink as we grow olderB) the front section of the brain does not shrinkC) sixty-year-olds have the better brains than thirty-year-oldsD) some people’s brains have contracted more than other people’s29. The word “subjects” in Paragraph 5means ________.A) something to be consideredB) branches of knowledge studiedC) persons chosen to be studied in an experimentD) any member of a state except the supreme ruler30. According to the passage, which people seem to age slower than the others?A) Lawyers.B) Farmers.C) Clerks.D) Shop assistants.Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.On June 17, 1744, the officials from Maryland and Virginia held a talk with the Indians of the Six Nations. The Indians were invited to send boys to William and Mary College. In a letter the next day the refused the offer as follows:We know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges, and that the costs of living of our young men, while with you, would be very expensive to you. We are convinced that you mean to do us good by your proposal; and we thank you heartily. But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things, and you will therefore not be offended if your ideas of this kind of education happen not t be the same as yours. We have had some experience of it. Several of our young people were formerly brought up at the colleges of the northern provinces: they were taught all your sciences; but, when they came back to us, they were bad runners, ignorant of every means of living in the woods…they were totally good for nothing.We are, however, not the less obliged by your kind offer, though we refuse to accept it; and, to show our grateful sense of it, if the gentlemen of Virginia will send up a dozen of their sons, we will take care of their education, teach them in all we know, and make men of them.31. The passage is about ________.A) the talk between the Indians and the officialsB) the colleges of northern provincesC) the educational values of the IndiansD) the problems of the Americans in the mid-eighteenth century32. The Indians’ chief purpose in writing the letter seems to be to ________.A) politely refuse a friendly offerB) express their opinion on equal treatmentC) show their prideD) describe Indian customs33. According to the letter, the Indians believed that ________.A) it would be better for their boys to receive some schoolingB) they were being insulted by the offerC) they knew more about science than the officialsD) they had a better way of educating young men34. Different from the officials’ view of education, the Indians though ________.A) young women should also be educatedB) they had different goals of educationC) they taught different branches of scienceD) they should teach the sons of the officials first35. The tone of the letter as a whole is best described as ________.A) angryB) pleasantC) politeD) inquiringPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the earth’spostwar era, there was quite a wide-spread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction (失误).Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong.Questioning and routine double-checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.36. What is the main purpose of this passage?A) To look back to the early days of computers.B) To explain what technical problems may occur with computers.C) To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.D) To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers.37. According to the passage, the initial concern about computers was that they might________.A) change our personal livesB) take control of the worldC) create unforeseen problemsD) affect our businesses38. The passage recommends those dealing with computers to ________.A) be reasonably doubtful about themB) check all their answersC) substitute them for basic thinkingD) use them for business purposes only39. The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is________.A) challengingB) psychologicalC) dramaticD) fundamental40. It can be inferred from the passage that the author would disapprove of ________.A) investment in computersB) the use of on e’s internal computerC) double-check on computersD) complete dependence on computers for decision-makingPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

The earth’s crust is divided into seven sections. These sections are called plates.When two plates push against each other, or when two plates rub against each other, an earthquake will occur. An earthquake causes the ground above the plate to shake. The shaking is caused by the motion of two plates.Earthquakes are likely to happen at the boundaries of the earth’s plates. Each of these plates is about 70 kilometers thick. Let’s take a look at the general boundaries of one of these seven major plate.Take the North American plate for an example. The left boundary of this plate is the west coat of North America and the east boundary of this plate is through the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. That is, this plate extends from the west coast of North America to the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.11. What is the top layer of the earth called?12. How many major sections is the earth’s crust divided into?13. Which of the following is the left boundary of the North American plate?Passage 2Nowadays motorcycling is fast becoming one of America’s most popular sports. However, there are several things about motorcycling that the average citizen dislikes. Motorcyclists frequently look dirty; in fact, there are dirty. On the road there is little toprotect them from mud, insects, and bird droppings. For practical reasons they often dress in old clothing which looks much less respectable than the clothing of people who ride in cars. For the same reason motorcyclists usually wear dark colors.Of course the danger of motorcycling also helps account for many people’s low opinion of the sport. Its defenders, however, claim that careful cyclists are in less danger than is commonly believed. A cyclist must drive s if everybody around him wanted to kill him. He must pay careful attention to his driving. From that point of view, a man on a motorcycle is safer than a man in a car.Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.14. Why do motorcyclists often dress in old and dark clothing?15. What is the average citizen’s opinion about motorcycling?16. How can a motorcyclist be safer than a car driver?Passage 3Robert Edwards was blinded in an automobile accident nine years age. He was also partially deaf because of old age. Last week, he was walking near his home when a thunder-storm approached. He took shelter under a tree and was struck by lightning. He was knocked to the ground and woke up some 20 minutes later, lying face down in water below a tree. He went into the house and lay down in bed. A short time later, he awoke; his legs couldn’t move and he was trembling, but, when he opened his eyes, he could see the clock across the room in front of him. When his wife entered, he saw her for the first time in nine years. Doctors confirm that he has regained his sight and hearing apparently from the flash of lightning, but they are unable to explain the reason. The only possible explanation offered by one doctor was that, since Edwards lost his sight as a result of a hard blow in a terrible accident, perhaps the only way it could be restored was by another blow.Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.17. What caused Robert Edwards’s blindness?18. Which was the first thing that he saw after being struck by lightning?19. What was Edwards doing when he was struck by lightning?20. What caused Edwards to regain his sight according to one of the doctors?。

(S10) ________Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and markthe corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecenter.Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition (学会) of each new skill-the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child: This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Patents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are sever over times of coming home atnight or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child’s own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality (道德). Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.11. Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills ________.A) should be avoidedB) is universal among parentsC) sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD) will make him lose interest in learning new things12. In the process of children’s learning new skills parents ________.A) should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words theyreadB) should not expect too much of themC) should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them ontheir ownD) should create as many learning opportunities as possible13. The second paragraph mainly tells us that ________.A) parents should be strict with their childrenB) parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of thecommunityC) parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of thechildren aloneD) parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation14. The word “precept” (Line 3, Para. 3) probably means “________”.A) ideaB) punishmentC) behaviorD) instruction15. In moral matters, parents should ________.A) observe the rules themselvesB) be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenC) forbid things which have no foundation in moralityD) consistently ensure the security of their childrenPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features (特写) as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and not glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers variety to attract many different readers, but far more than nay one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now, but immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what papers in a newspaper has no more than transient (短暂的) value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.16. A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following except its ________.A) wide coverageB) uniform styleC) speed in reporting newsD) popularity17. According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the “same”newspaper is that ________.A) people scan for the news they are interested inB) different people prefer different newspapersC) people are rarely interested in the same kind of newsD) people have different views about what a good newspaper is18. It can be conclude from the passage that newspaper readers ________.A) apply reading techniques skillfullyB) jump from one newspaper to anotherC) appreciate the variety of a newspaperD) usually read a newspaper selectively19. A good newspaper offers “a variety” to readers because ________.A) it tries to serve different readersB) it has to cover things that happen in a certain localityC) readers are difficult to pleaseD) readers like to read different newspapers20. The best title for this passage would be “________”.A) The Importance of Newspaper TopicalityB) The Characteristics of a Good NewspaperC) The Variety of a Good NewspaperD) Some Suggestions on How to Read a NewspaperPassage ThreeQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.American society is not nap (午睡) friendly. In fact, says David Dinges, a sleep specialist at the Universi ty of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. “There’s even a prohibition against admitting we need sleep.” Nobody wants to be caught napping or found asleep at work. To quote proverb: “Some sleep five hours, nature requires seven, laziness nine and wickedness el even.”Wrong. The way not to fall asleep at work is to take naps when you need them. “We have to totally change our attitude toward napping”, says Dr. William Dement of Stanford University, the godfather of sleep research.Last year a national commission l ed by Dement identified an “American sleep debt” which one member said was as important as the national debt, the commission was concerned about the dangers of sleepiness: people causing industrial accidents or falling asleep while driving. This may be why we have a new sleep policy in the White House. According to recent reports, president Clinton is trying to take a half-hour snooze (打瞌睡) every afternoon.About 60 percent of American adults nap when given the opportunity. We seem to have “a midafternoon quiet phase” also called “a secondary sleep gate.” Sleeping 15 minutes to two hours in the early afternoon can reduce stress and make us refreshed. Clearly, we were born to nap.We Superstars of Snooze don’t nap to replace lost shut-eye or to prepare for a night shift. Rather, we “snack” on sleep, whenever, wherever and at whatever time we feel like it. I myself have napped in buses, cars, planes and on boats; on floors and beds; and inlibraries, offices and museums.21. It is commonly accepted in American society that too much sleep is ________.A) unreasonableB) criminalC) harmfulD) costly22. The research done by the Dement commission shows that Americans ________.A) don’t like to take napsB) are terribly worried about their national debtC) sleep less than is good for themD) have caused many industrial and traffic accidents23. The purpose of this article is to ________.A) warn us of the wickedness of nappingB) explain the danger of sleepinessC) discuss the side effects of nappingD) convince the reader of the necessity of napping24. The “American sleep debt” (Line 1, Para. 3) is the result of ________.A) the traditional misconception the Americans have about sleepB) the new sleep policy of the Clinton AdministrationC) the rapid development of American industryD) the Americans’ worry about the danger of sleepiness25. The second sentence of the last paragraph tells us that it is ________.A) preferable to have a sound sleep before a night shiftB) good practice to eat something light before we go to bedC) essential to make up for cost sleepD) natural to take a nap whenever we feel the need for itPassage FourQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Violin prodigies (神童), I learned, have come in distinct waves from distinct regions. Most of the great performers if the late 19th and early 20th centuries were born and brought up in Russia and Eastern Europe. I asked Isaac Stern, one of the world’s greatest violinists the reason for this phenomenon. “It is very clear,” he told me. “They were allJews (犹太人) and Jews at the time were severely oppressed and ill-treated in that part of the world. They were not allowed into the professional fields, but they were allowed to achieve excellence on a concert stage.” As a result, every Jewish parent’s dream was to have a child in the music school because it was a passport to the West.Another element in the emergence of prodigies, I found, is a society that values excellence in a certain field to nurture (培育) talent. Nowadays, the most nurturing societies seem to be in the Far East. “In Japan, a most competitive society, with stronger discipline than ours,” says Isaac Stem, children are ready to test their limits every day in many fields, including music. When Western music came to Japan after World War II, that music not only became part of their daily lives, but it became a discipline as well. The Koreans and Chinese as we know, are just as highly motivated as the Japanese.That’s a good thing, because even prodigies must work hard. Next to hard work, biological inheritance plays an important role in the making of a prodigy. J. S. Bach, for example, was the top of several generations of musicians, and four of his sons had significant careers in music.26. Jewish parents in Eastern Europe longed for their children to attend music schoolbecause ________.A) it would allow them access to a better life in the WestB) Jewish children are born with excellent musical talentC) they wanted their children to enter into the professional fieldD) it would enable the family to get better treatment in their own country27. Nurturing societies as mentioned in the passage refer to societies that, ________.A) enforce strong discipline on students who want to achieve excellenceB) treasure talent and provide opportunities for its full developmentC) encourage people to compete with each otherD) promise talented children high positions28. Japan is described in the passage as a country that attaches importance to ________.A) all-round developmentB) the learning of Western musicC) strict training of childrenD) variety in academic studies29. Which of the following contributes to the emergence of musical prodigies accordingto the passage?A) A natural gift.B) Extensive knowledge of music.C) Very early training.D) A prejudice-free society.30.

1998年英语专业四级考试真题参考答案
1998年英语专业四级考试真题参考答案PART I WRITINGSECTION A COMPOSITION参考样文One Way to Solve the ProblemToo many vehicles, such as cars, tracks, motorcycles, have created a lot of serious problems in our world. Besides congestion, accidents and fast fuel consumption, they are responsible for a good part of air pollution in big dries. All the time, the vehicles are pumping huge amounts of waste gases into the atmosphere. These gases are harmful, causing disease and even death.One possible solution that may reduce air pollution created by so many vehicles is to develop modem public transportation systems and restrict the use of private cars. If the price of petrol rises constantly and the public vehicles are efficient and convenient enough, most people will not have private cars. And the total number of cars in big cities will reduce greatly. People would find more room to walk, to jog, to perform what they used to do in the open air. Moreover, dirt, noise exhaust, parked cars, and smog would decrease greatly.There is no inherent incompatibility between man in an urban setting and the automobile. But we don't want cars to seize our living space. We take for granted that everyone could enjoy the pleasure of stretching his legs freely, breathing and sniffing the air cheerfully. On the whole, the elimination of air pollution needs the co-efforts from the government, the public and the environments.SECTION B NOTE-WRITING参考样文May 15, 1998Dear George,I've got a ticket for the computer fair for this coming Sunday at the Municipal Exhibition Center.

The fair will begin at 9 a.m. You may take Bus No. 32 to go there.SallyPART ⅡDICTA TIONThe Railway in BritainThe success of early railways, such as the lines between big cities, /led to a great increase in railway building in Victorian times. /Between 1835 and 1865, about 25 thousand kilometers of track were built, /and over 100 railway companies were created./Railway travel transformed people's lives. /Trains were first designed to can-y goods. /However, a law in the 19th century forced railway companies to run one cheap train a day, /which stopped at every station and cost only a penny a mile. /Soon working class passengers found they could afford to travel by rail. /Cheap day excursion trains became popular and seaside resorts grew rapidly. /The railways also provided thousands of new jobs, /building carriages, running the railways, and repairing the tracks./ Railways even changed the time. /The need to run railways on time meant the local time was abolished / and clocks showed the same time all over the country.PART ⅢLISTENING COMPREHENSIONSECTION A1.

Spilich put young non-smokers, active smokers and smokers deprived (被剥夺) of cigarettes through a series of tests.In the first test, each subject (试验对象) sat before a computer screen and pressed a key as soon as he or she recognized a target letter among a grouping of 96. In this simple test, smokers, deprived smokers and non-smokers performed equally well.The next test was **plex, requiring all to scan sequences of 20 identical letters and respond the instant one of the letters transformed into a different one. Non-smokers were faster, but under the stimulation of nicotine (尼古丁), active smokers were faster than deprived smokers.In the third test of short-term memory, non-smokers made the fewest errors, but deprived **mitted fewer errors than activesmokers.The fourth test required people to read a passage, then answer questions about it. Non-smokers remembered 19 percent more of the most important information than active smokers, and deprived smokers bested those who had smoked a cigarette just before testing. Active smokers tended not only to have poorer memories but also had trouble separating important information from insignificant details."As our tests became **plex, ' Sums up Spilich, "non-smokers performed better than smokers by wi- der and wider margins." He predicts, "smokers might perform adequately at many jobs -- until they **plicated. A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose, but ff something went wrong, smoking might damagehis mental capacity. "21.The purpose of George Spilich's experiments is ______.SSS_SINGLE_SELA to test whether smoking has a positive effect on the mental capacity of smokersB to show how smoking damages people's mental capacityC to prove that smoking affects people's regular performanceD to find out whether smoking helps people's short-term memory22.George Spilich's experiment was conducted in such a way as to ______.SSS_SINGLE_SELA compel the subjects to separate major information from minor detailsB put the subjects through **plex testsC check the effectiveness of nicotine on smokersD register the prompt responses of the subjects23.The word "bested" ( Line 3, Para. 5) most probably means ______.SSS_SINGLE_SELA beatB enviedC caught up withD made the best of24.Which of the following statements is true?SSS_SINGLE_SELA Active smokers in general performed better than deprived smokers.B Active smokers responded more quickly than the other subjects.C Non-smokers were not better than other subjects in performing simple tasks.D Deprived smokers gave the slowest responses to the various tasks.25.We can infer from the last paragraph that _______.SSS_SINGLE_SELA smokers should not expect to become airline pilotsB smoking in emergency cases causes mental illnessC no airline pilots smoke during flightsD smokers may prove unequal to handling emergency cases Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:There is no denying that students should learn something about **puters work, just as we expect them at least to understand that the **bustion engine (内燃机) has something to do with burning fuel, expanding gases and pistons (活塞) being driven. For people should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do. Further, students might be helped by a course that considers**puter's impact on society. But that is not what is meant by computer literacy. **puter literacy is not a form of literacy (读写能力) it is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art.Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities. A case might be made that **petent citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers. But this is quite different from saying that ail ought to know how to program one. Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career. While programming can be lots of fun, and while our society needs some people who are experts at it, the same is true of auto repair and violinmaking.Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult, and it gets easier all the time as programs become more "user-friendly'. Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen. What does the phrase "learning to use a computer" mean? It sounds like "learning to drive a car", that is, it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that, once acquired, enable one to use a computer.In fact, "learning to use a computer" is much more like "learning to play a game", but learning the roles of one game maynot help you play a second game, whose rules may not be the same. There is no such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer. One can only teach people to use this or that program and generally that is easily accomplished.26.To be **petent citizens of tomorrow, people should _____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA try to lay a solid foundation in computer scienceB be aware of how the things that they use do what they doC learn to use a computer by acquiring a certain set of skillsD understand that programming a computer is more essential than repairing a car27.In the second paragraph "violin-making" is mentioned to show that_____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA programming a computer is as interesting as making a violinB our society needs experts in different fieldsC violin-making requires as much skill as computer programmingD people who can use a computer don't necessarily have to **puter programming28.Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because_____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA programs are becoming **plicatedB programs are designed to be convenient to usersC programming is becoming easier and easierD programs are becoming readily available to computer users29.According to the author, the phrase "learning to use a computer"( Lines 3-4, Para. 3) means learning_____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA a set of rulesB the fundamentals of computer scienceC specific programsD general principles of programming30.The author's purpose in writing this passage is _____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA to stress the impact of **puter on societyB to explain the concept of computer literacyC to illustrate the requirements for **petent citizens of tomorrowD to emphasize **puter programming is an interesting and challenging jobQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled, pain-free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness. If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to un- happiness. But in fact, the opposite is true: more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result, many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness. They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage, raising children, professional achievement, **mitment (承担的义务) , self-improvement.Ask a bachelor (单身汉) why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying. If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment. **mitment is in fact quite painful. The single life is filled with fun, adventure, excitement. Marriage has such moments, but they are not its most distinguishing features.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night's sleep or a three-day vacation. I don't know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children. But couple who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations. It liberates time: now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness. It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless. And it liberates us from envy: we now understand that all those who are always having 8o much fun actually may not be happy at all.31.According to the author, a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because _____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD he fears it will put an end to all his fun, adventure and excitement32.Raising children, in the author's opinion, is _____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA a moral dutyB a thankless jobC a rewarding taskD a source of inevitable pain33.From the last paragraph, we learn that envy sometimes stems from_____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA hatredB misunderstandingC prejudiceD ignorance34.To understand what true happiness is one must _____.SSS_SINGLE_SELA have as much fun as possible during one's lifetimeB make every effort to liberate oneself from painC put up with pain under all circumstancesD be able to distinguish happiness from fun35.What is the author trying to tell us?SSS_SINGLE_SELA Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.B One must know how to attain happiness.C It is important to **mitments.D It is pain that leads to happiness.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:It's very interesting to note where the debate about diversity (多样化) is taking place. It in taking place primarily inpolitical circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate (公司的) leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if **panies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. Theyalso say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool of potential employees. And in locking at where birth rates are growing and at where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that doesn't occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the business managers they will need.Likewise, I don't hear people in the academy saying. "Let's go backward. Let's go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy (不拘一格选人才)" ( which was never true -- we never had a meritocracy, although we've come closer to it in the last 30 years). I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus has doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined **munity, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus.
