Reading comprehension: (2×10=20)Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.(1)Manners nowadays in metropolitan cities like London are practically nonexistent. It is nothing for a big, strong schoolboy to elbow an elderly woman aside in the dash for the last remaining seat on the tube or bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her, as he ought. In fact,it is saddening to note that if a man does offer his seat to an older woman, it is nearly always a continental man or one from the older generation.3This question of giving up seats in public transport is much argued about by young men who say that, since women have claimed equality, they no longer deserve to be treated with courtesy, and that those who go out to work should take their turn in the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be physically as strong as men. Even if it is not agreed, however, that young men should stand up for younger women, the fact remains that courtesy should be shown to the old, the sick and the burdened. Are we really so lost to all ideals of unselfishness that we can sit there indifferently reading the paper or a book, saying to ourselves “First come, first served,” while a gra y haired woman, a mother with a young child or a cripple stands? Yet this is all too often seen.Conditions in travel are really very hard on everyone, we know, but hardship is surely no excuse. Sometimes one wonders what would have been the behavior of these stout young men in packed refugee train or a train on its way to a prisoner camp during the war. Would they have considered it only right and their proper due to keep the best places for themselves then?Older people, tired and irritable from a day’s w ork, are not angels at all. Many a brisk argument or an insulting quarrel breaks out as the weary queues push and shove each other to get on buses and tubes. One cannot commend this, of course, but one does feel there is just a little more excuse.If cities are to remain pleasant places to live in at all, however, it seems urgent, not only that communications in transport should he improved, but also that communication between human beings should be kept smooth and polite. All over cities, it seems that people are too tired and toorushed to be polite. Shop assistants won’t bother to assist, taxi drivers shout at each other as theydash dangerously round corners, bus conductors pull the bell before their desperate passengers have had time to get on or off the bus, and so on and so forth. It seems to us that it4is up to theyoung and strong to do their small part to stop such deterioration.16. According to the passage, we could expect good manners from ________.A. Englishmen in LondonB. a man from FranceC. men in big modern cities in EnglandD. men only in metropolitan cities17. What is the writer’s opinion concerning courteous manners toward women?A. Women have claimed equality and no longer need to be treated differently from men.B. It is considered old fashioned for young men to give up their seats for young women.C. Lady First should be universally practiced.D. Special consideration should be shown to women.18. According to the writer, communication between human beings would be smoother if ________.A. people were more considerate to each otherB. life were easier and more comfortableC. women were treated with more courtesyD. public transport could be improved19. The italicized word “deterioration” in the last paragraph probably means “________”.A. worsening of the general situationB. lowering of the moral standardsC. declining of the courtesy to womenD. spreading of evil conduct20. It could be inferred that the best remedy for the hard travel conditions in city would be ________.A. to attach significance to the moral education of young peopleB. to treat people, be they young or old, with courtesy and sympathyC. to demand everyone do his part not to be impolite to each otherD. to improve the means of transportation and the public morality(2)5From the health point of view we are living in a marvelous age. We are immunized from birth against many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery. It is almost certain that one day remedies will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased enormously. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the incredible slaughter of men, women and children on the roads. Man versus the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing. Thousands of people the world over are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel, his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man’s veryworst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They swear. They are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and utterly selfish. All their hidden frustrations, disappointments and jealousies seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.The surprising thing is that society smiles so benignly on the motorist and seems to condone his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is desecrated by road networks; and the mass annual slaughter becomes nothing more than a statistic, to be conveniently forgotten.It is high time that a world code were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are notoriously lax and even the strictest are not strict enough. A code which was universally accepted could only have a dramatically beneficial effect on the accident rate. Here are a few examples of some of the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is;6all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through stringent annual tests for safety. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can impair a person’s driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Maximum and minimum speed limits should be imposed on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specification for manufactures. All advertising stressing power and performance should be banned. These measures may sound inordinately harsh. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.21. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.B. Thousands of people the world over are killed each year.C. The laws of some countries about driving are too lax.D. Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents.22. The italicized word “condone” (Para. 3) probably means “________”.A. dislikeB. conductC. forgiveD. forbid23. The sentence “his car becomes the extension of his personality” (Para. 2) probably means “________”.A. driving can show his real selfB. driving can show the other part of his personalityC. driving can bring out his characterD. his car embodies his temper24. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way against traffic accidents?A. To test drivers at more regular intervals.B. To make driving tests more difficult to pass.7C. To modify maximum and minimum speed limits.D. To draw up safety specifications for manufactures.25. The author’s attitude towards the present traffic laws is ________.A. ironicalB. criticalC. appealingD. pessimisticIII. Cloze: (1×15=15)Directions: Choose the one from the given A, B, C and D to complete the passage properly.The nation’s dreams for the 2010 World Expo have come true as Shanghai won the bid in the fourth round of voting at the Bureau of International Exhibition’s 132nd general assembly.

However, in theory, bringing together people of different countries and backgrounds does have political and educational significance as well as the economic and social aspects. The degree achieved depends on the host countries and the ability to converse in the relevant languages.10…………………………………………………………精品自学考试资料推荐………………………………………………Through travel, people are finding friends in every corner of the earth: finding common bonds with the rest of humanity and spreading messages of hope for a peaceful world. Tourism, properly designed and developed, has the potential to help bridge the psychological and cultural distances that separate people of diverse races, colors, religions and stages of social and economic development.72. In the past decades, international hotel companies concentrated on building luxury and upscale hotels and resorts around the world to serve tourists from the developed Western countries. Since the early 1990s, international hotel companies have noticed that growth at the high end of the hotel segment slowed down worldwide, but demand for two-star and three-star midscale hotels has been on the rise in many countries with emerging economies. For instance, the rush to build luxury hotels in Bangkok, Thailand, in the 1980s and early 1990s has pushed the hotel market to a glut. The average room rate of a five-star hotel in Bangkok in 1993 was only $79 per night. However, there has been a shortage of two-star and three-star hotels in Bangkok to accommodate the increased number of tourists from South Korea, and China.11。

Reading Comprehension (2×10=20)Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choice.(A)Traveling with children who are old enough to read, write, or play games need not be a problem. By taking along a supply of papers, pencils, or one of the excellent game books that are sold just for the purpose, the time can be made to fly. Verbal games, too, such as “Twenty Questions”, help to pass the hours.When traveling on public transportation, having games and diversions on hand is just as important, since it is unreasonable to expect children, especially small ones, to be able to sit still for long periods of time. It is up to you to keep watch over them, however, and not let them roam bythemselves or make excessive amounts of noise. Fellow passengers have paid for their travel tickets and even those who love children can learn to hate them quickly when trapped in a train or airplane with those who are ill-behaved.On ships there are usually activities of children. Although it is a break for parents to be able to send their children off to participate and have some time alone, you should still make sure that your children behave well. Children should not be permitted to race through corridors or to be unsupervised, no matter how much you enjoy relaxing in your desk chair without them nearby. It would be unfortunate if your children were the cause of other’s feelings that they were also traveling “with children”—— yours ——because of their interruption through constant noise, quarreling, or bad behavior.More and more frequently, children are sent to travel unaccompanied by an adult, whether to visit a relative, or to travel to grandparents. Many parents expect that a flight attendant or train steward will take care of their children when they send them off alone. This is an unreasonable expectation. Travel attendants have specific jobs to do, andthese do not include child care. For that reason each airline has established a minimum age for unaccompanied children. As long as that regulation is respected, there is no reason that children who are emotionally stable and unafraid should not travel by themselves. In my experience with our grandchildren, the airlines have done an excellent job of caring for them and the children have enjoyed it thoroughly. Of course, if it is not possible for a parent to accompany a very young child, then another adult should be hired as a traveling companion.21. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Traveling with a primary school child is not a problem.B. Adults find it easy to pass the time by doing the game such as “Twenty Questions”.C. Children find time fly by doing verbal games such as “Twenty Questions”.D. Game books help make the time pass quickly for young children.22. It is implied but not stated that ______.A. small children cannot be expected to be emotionally stablefor longB. parents find it harassing to take care of their own childrenC. small children always make much noiseD. few fellow passengers like traveling with children23. The italicized word “break”(Para. 3) most probably means “ ______ ”.A. accidentB. mistakeC. restD. pause24. Parents cannot depend on travel attendants to take care of their children because ______.A. they are not responsible for child careB. there is a minimum age for children who travel aloneC. their children are emotionally unstable and timidD. parents should always go with their children25. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. the author doesn’t like traveling with his childrenB. the a uthor doesn’t like traveling with other passengers’ childrenC. the author opposes the airlines’ minimum age for unaccompanied childrenD. the author prefers children’s unaccompanied trave l ifthey are old enough(B)With its almost six billion people, the world offers a fascinating variety of human shapes and colors. As humans spread throughout the world, their adaptations to diverse climate and other living conditions resulted in this fascinating variety of complexions, colors and shapes. Changes in the genetic structure added distinct characteristics to the peoples of the globe. In this sense the concept of race, a group with inherited physical characteristics that distinguish it from another group, is a reality. Humans do indeed come in a variety of colors and shapes.In two senses, however, race is a myth, a fabrication of the human mind. The first fabrication is the idea that any one race is superior to another. All races have their geniuses —and their idiots. Like language, no race is superior to another. Adolf Hitler’s ideas were extreme. He believed that a superior race, called the Aryans, was responsible for the cultural achievements of Europe. They possessed the genetic stuff that made them inherently superior. Even many scientists of the time —not only Germany but throughout Europe and theUnited States —espoused the idea of racial superiority. Not surprisingly, they considered themselves members of the supposedly superior race!In addition to the myth of racial superiority, there is a second myth — that of the existence of a “pure” race. From the perspective of contemporary biology, humans show such a mixture of physical characteristics, that the “pure” races do not exist. Instead of falling into distinct types clearly separate from one another, human characteristics flow endlessly together. These minute gradations made arbitrary any attempt to draw definite lines.Large groupings of people, however, can be classified by blood type and gene frequencies. Yet even this arrangement does not uncover “race”. Rather, such classifications are so arbitrary that biologists and anthropologists can draw up listings showing any number of “race”. Ashley Montagu, a physical anthropologist, pointed out that some scientists have classified humans into only two “races”while others have found as many as two thousand. Montagu himself classified humans into forty “racial” groups.This is not meant to imply that the idea of race is a myth.That idea is definitely very much alive. It is firmly embedded in our culture, a social reality that we confront daily. Sociologist W. I. Thomas observed that “if people define situations as real, they are real in their consequences”. The fact that no race is superior or that biologically we cannot even decide how people should be classified into races is not what counts. What makes a difference for social life, rather, is that people believe these ideas, for people act on beliefs, not facts. As a result, we always have people like Hitler. Most people, fortunately, do not believe in such extremes, yet most people also appear to be ethnocentric enough to believe, at least just a little, that their own race is superior to others. 26. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that the diversification of human race resulted from ______.A. genetic inheritance and environmental influencesB. the differentiation of the inherited physical characteristicsC. humans' adaptations to diverse climate and other living conditionsD. genetic changes and distinct characteristics27. The italicized word “espoused” (Para. 2) probably means “______”.A. challengedB. questionedC. opposedD. supported28. Why is there no “pure” race according to the passage?A. Because people of different races often get married.B. Because people have different blood types.C. Because racial characteristics cover each other in part.D. Because there are so many races in the world.29. The author believes that any attempt at classifying races ______.A. is at best arbitraryB. is bound to be biasedC. tends to pick out one race as superiorD. takes culture into account30. The author concludes the passage by pointing out that ______.A. it is hardly possible to classify humans into racial groupsB. we should be on our guard against any idea of racial superiorityC. race is indeed a mystery to be explored and uncoveredD. it is not important how people should be classifiedIII.

二、Ⅱ.Reading comprehension(总题数：2，分数：20.00)Culture is the total sum of all the traditions, customs, beliefs, and ways of life of a given group of human beings. In this sense, every group has a culture, however savage, undeveloped, or uncivilized it may seem to be.To the professional anthropologist, there is no intrinsic superiority of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic rank or hierarchy among languages. People once thought of the languages of backward groups as savage, undeveloped forms of speech, consisting largely of grunts and groans. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of grunts and groans, it is a fact established by the study of "backward" languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today.Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the transfer of ideas. They fall behind our Western languages not in their sound pattern of grammatical structures, which usually are fully adequatefor all language needs, but only in their vocabularies, which reflect the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however, two things are to be noted. First, all languages seem to possess the machinery for vocabulary expansion, either by putting together words already in existence, or by borrowing them from other languages and adapting them to their own system. Second, the objects and activities requiring names and distinctions in "backward" languages, while different from ours, are often surprisingly numerous and complicated. A Western language distinguishes merely between two degrees of remoteness ("this" and "that"); some languages of the American Indians distinguish between what is close to the speaker, or to the person addressed, or out of sight, or in the past, or in the future.This study of language, in turn, casts a new light upon the claim of the anthropologists that all cultures are to be viewed independently, and without ideas of rank or hierarchy.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the author, to the professional linguists, ______.（分数：2.00）A.all languages came from grunts and groansB.all languages in the world are equal and independent √C.Western cultures are better than Eastern culturesD.the superiority of one culture over another is difficult to explain解析：[考点] 事实细节题。
