As they grew to young manhood，the king sought a 16 way to designate （委任） one of them as crown prince.

Being a keenly observant king， he thought he found a characteristic in one 18 was not shared by the other. 19 them to his council chamber one day，he said，“My sons， the day will come when one of you must 20 me as king. The weight of sovereignty （统治） is very heavy. To find out which of you is better able to 21 cheerfully， I am sending you together to a far corner of the 22 . One of my advisors there will place equal burdens on your shoulders. My 23 will one day go to the one who first returns bearing his yoke like a 24 should.”In a spirit of 25 competition， the brothers set out together. Soon they overtook an aged woman struggling under a burden that seemed far too 26 for her weak body. One of the boys suggested that they stop to help her. The other 27 ：“We have a saddle o f our own to worry about. Let us be on our way.”The objector hurried on while the other stayed 28 to give aid to the aged woman. Along the road， from day to day， he found otherswho also needed 29 . A blind man took him miles out of his way，and a 30 man slowed him to a cripples walk.Eventually he did 31 his fathers advisor， where he secured his own yoke and started home with it 32 on his shoulders.

The secondgrader，surnamed Wu， is accompanied by her parents， and is hoping to improve her appearance.With short hair and glasses， wearing a purple Tshirt， dark sport pants and gray sneakers， she says she is after medical advice about whether she should undergo surgical or nonsurgical procedures.Wu is one of the many high school students who get plastic surgery during summer and winter vacations. A few days before Wu came to Beijing， another high school graduate surnamed Guo had a breast enlargement procedure at the same clinic. Guo， who has been admitted to Beijing Film Academy， also had work done on her eyes and nose during the last summer vacation. The three operations cost her wealthy mother nearly 100，000 yuan. The goodlooking girl saysshe simply “wants to become prettier”， while her mother admits a better appearance may help her daughter find more acting opportunities in the future.“High school students usually arent so clear about what they want， compared to their parents， especially those who want their children to have a career in entertainment，” says Ding Xiaobang，a surgeon at the clinic， add ing he never sees anyone “ugly” comes to his clinic. He says the most common operations are for double eyelids and nose jobs. He does not recommend that students under the age of 16 seek a sharper nose through surgery as their bones are stilling growing.Hu Xiaogen， a doctor， says it is safer for women above 20 and men above 25 to undergo plastic surgery. Besides being physically immature， Hu says high school students are less prepared mentally to make such decisions. He says one 16yearold student pulled out of an operation， as she was afraid the injection to her eyelids would be too painful.“Parents should offer objective and reasonable suggestions to their children. Not all of them are suitable to become actors or actresses， even after they take the risk of undergoing plastic surgery，” Hu says. “Enhancing allround capabilities is the correct way forward to a prospective career.”36. Why did Wu come to Beijing together with her parents？A. To find opportunities in acting.B. To treat her nearsighted eyesight.C. To seek advice on plastic surgery.D. To enroll for Beijing Film Academy.37. From what Ding said， we can infer .A. parents wonder why their children need a plastic surgeryB. girls who do surgery operations will become actressesC. parents having a career in entertainment prefer plastic surgeryD. those who do plastic surgery arent ugly at all38. Which statement may Hu agree to？A. Plastic surgery leads to a good job.B. Appearance isnt everything.C. Actors or actresses dont need plastic surgery.D. There is no risk in doing plastic surgery.BYohoho and a whole lot of fun！Hello， friends！ An interactive experience has dropped anchor at the Pirate Snorke Adventure.Help Captain Poseidon locate his treasure by finding the missing map pieces hidden at the bottom of our own lagoon （泻湖）.

Fishers.CWith the 2012 London Olympics just over a year away， a small town in central England is celebrating early， and with good reason.While the first modern Olympics took place in Athens， Greece， in 1896，Much Wenlock began staging its “Olympian” nearly 50 years earlier.The town of 2，000 about 240 kilometers northwest of London owes this legacy to Dr. William Penny Brookes， who first organized the games and promoted them for the rest of his life. Former International Olympic Committee President Juan Antonio Samaranch laid a wreath on Brookes grave in 1994， saying，“I came to pay respect to Dr. Brookes， who really was the founder of the modern Olympic Games.”The London organizing committee for 2012 also honored the town that dates to medieval times， naming one of its two official mascots （吉祥物2012）for next years games “Wenlock”.“Brookes wanted sports for all， at all levels and over broad bases，” says Kirk Heywood， owner of the towns 17thcentury Raven Hotel.In October 1890， Brookes met Baron Pierre de Coubertin of France， widely regarded as the founder of the modern Olympics，over several hours at the Raven. The two spoke about de Coubertins wish to stage an international Olympic festival in Athens. Even then， de Coubertin was determined to make sure his games werestrictly for amateurs.“The only trouble we have regarding professionalism is with the country towns money prizes are given very often for bicycle races，” the baron wrote in a letter. Amateurism eventually gave way at the Olympics， as professional athletes began competing in most sports.Much Wenlock today is as much as it was several centuries ago，lacking fastfood chains and any semblance of modern buildings in the town center. Harold Langley won the Wenlock pentathlon gold medal in 1923 and competed for Britain in the 1924 Paris Olympics. Alison Williamson won the Much Wenlock archery silver medal as a l0yearold in 1981. She went on to represent Britain at the 2000， 2004 and 2008 0lympics， winning a bronze medal at Athens in 2004.Brookes died in December 1895， just five months before the 1896 Athens Games. He was born， maintained his medical practice.43. The town Much Wenlock became famous because .A. Dr. Brookes really started the modern Olympic Games hereB. one of the 2012 Olympic mascots was named WenlockC. it remains unchanged as it was several centuries agoD. it is a place which Samaranch visited in 199444. We can infer that Brookes and Coubertin .A. didnt want the games to be competitiveB. expected the games to be held for amateursC. blamed the town for giving more money to bicycle racesD. wished more professional athletes to join in the games45. The writer mentioned Harold and Alison to prove .A. England will achieve great success in 2012 Olympic GamesB. Much Wenlock was a birthplace for British championsC. the legacy of the competitions has lived onD. more British players will come to Wenlock to be trained46. The main idea of the passage may be .A. small English town stakes claim to Olympic legacyB. Brookes was really founder of the modern OlympicsC. a small town held Olympic Games in EnglandD. Much Wenlock was the name of Olympic mascotDThe NewYork Times states that cheerleading is the fastest growing girls sport， yet more than half of Americans do not believe it is a sport. In addition， they fail to distinguish between sideline cheerleaders and competitive ones. Sideline cheerleaders main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers，which should not be considered a sport. On the other hand，competitive cheerleading is a sport.Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. Like gymnasts， cheerleaders must learn to tumble. They perform standing back flips， round flip full layout twists. Cheerleaders also perform lifts and tosses. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air，held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and cooperation with other teammates.Just as basketball and football have guidelines for competitive play， so does competitive cheerleading. The whole routine has to be completed in less than three minutes and 15 seconds and the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Competitive cheerleaders goal is to be the best. Just like gymnasts，they are awarded points for difficulty， technique， creativity and sharpness. The more difficult a mount or a stunt， the sharper and more insync the motions， the better the score. Cheerleading is a team sport so without cooperation and synchronization （同步），first place is out of reach.So why do many Americans not think cheerleading is a sport？It cannot be because cheerleaders do not use balls or manipulate objects （if you do not count megaphones， pompoms and signs as objects）. Wrestling， swimming diving， track， crosscountry，gymnastics， iceskating and boxing are recognized sports that do not use balls. Some people argue that cheerleaders are just “flirtsin skirts” with their only job to ente rtain the crowd， but cheerleaders today compete against other squads and work just as hard as other athletes.Competitive cheerleading is a sport. It is a physical activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared and its primary purpose is to compare the skills of participants.Hopefully， cheerleading will become as wellknown a sport as football and basketball， and even appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports.47. What is the primary purpose of cheerleading now？A. To make the audience feel amused.B. To cheer up the competitors on the court.C. To compare the skills of participants.D. To attract more people to watch events.48. What is the most important for cheerleaders to win a champion？A. They need to perform as gymnasts do.B. They have to entertain the crowd a lot.C. They should be energetic in the competition.D. They must understand how to work together.49. While competing in cheerleading， cheerleaders .A. cant perform more than three minutesB. are free to go here and thereC. need to follow a set of designed actionsD. usually use balls to add beauty to events50. The writers attitude to treating cheerleading as a sport is .A. negativeB. supportiveC. neutralD. disappointing四、任务型阅读（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格处填入一个最恰当的单词。

2013年考研英语阅读理解及答案
2013年全国研究生入学考试英语Section II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections: Read the following fourtexts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (40 points)Text 1In the 2006 film version of The Devil Wears Prada ,Miranda Priestly, played by Meryl Streep, scolds her unattractive assistant for imagining that high fashion doesn’t affect her, Priestly explains how the deep blue color of the assistant’s sweater descended over the years from fashion shows to departments stores and to the bargain bin in which the poor girl doubtless found her garment.This top-down conception of the fashion business couldn’t be more out of date or at odds with the feverish would described in Overdressed, Eliazabeth Cline’s three-year indictment of “fast fashion”. In the last decade or so ,advances in technology have allowed mass-market labels such as Zara ,H&M, and Uniqlo to react to trends more quickly and anticipate demand more precisely. Quicker turnarounds mean less wasted inventory, more frequent release, and more profit. These labels encourage style-conscious consumers to see clothes as disposable-meant to last only a wash or two, although they don’t advertise that –and to renew their wardrobe every few weeks. By offering on-trend items at dirt-cheap prices, Cline argues, these brands have hijacked fashion cycles, shaking an industry long accustomed to a seasonal pace.The victims of this revolution , of course ,are not limited to designers. For H&M to offer a $5.95 knit miniskirt in all its 2,300-pius stores around the world, it must rely on low-wage overseas labor, order in volumes that strain natural resources, and use massive amounts of harmful chemicals.Overdressed is the fashion world’s answer to consumer-activist bestsellers like Michael Pollan’s The Omnivore’s Dilemma. “Mass-produced clothing ,like fast food, fills a hunger and need, yet is non-durable and wasteful,”Cline argues. Americans, she finds, buy roughly 20 billion garments a year –about 64 items per person –and no matter how much they give away, this excess leads to waste.Towards the end of Overdressed, Cline introduced her ideal, a Brooklyn woman named Sarah Kate Beaumont, who since 2008 has made all of her own clothes –and beautifully. But as Cline is the first to note, it took Beaumont decades to perfect her craft; her example can’t be knocked off.Though several fast-fashion companies have made efforts to curb their impact on labor and the environment –including H&M, with its green Conscious Collection line –Cline believes lasting change can only be effected by the customer. She exhibits the idealism common to many advocates of sustainability, be it in food or in energy. V anity is a constant; people will only start shopping more sustainably when they can’t afford not to.21. Priestly criticizes her assistant for her（B）[A] poor bargaining skill. [B] insensitivity to fashion.[C] obsession with high fashion. [D] lack of imagination.22. According to Cline, mass-maket labels urge consumers to（A）[A] combat unnecessary waste. [B] shut out the feverish fashion world.[C] resist the influence of advertisements. [D] shop for their garments more frequently.23. The word “indictment”(Line 3, Para.2) is closest in meaning to（A）[A] accusation.[B] enthusiasm.[C] indifference.[D] tolerance.24. Which of the following can be inferred from the lase paragraph? （D）[A] V anity has more often been found in idealists.[B] The fast-fashion industry ignores sustainability.[C] People are more interested in unaffordable garments.[D] Pricing is vital to environment-friendly purchasing.25. What is the subject of the text? （C）[A] Satire on an extravagant lifestyle.[B] Challenge to a high-fashion myth.[C] Criticism of the fast-fashion industry.[D] Exposure of a mass-market secret.Text 2An old saying has it that half of all advertising budgets are wasted-the trouble is, no one knows which half . In the internet age,at least in theory ,this fraction can be much reduced . By watching what people search for, click on and say online, companies can aim “behavioural”ads at those most likely to buy.In the past couple of weeks a quarrel has illustrated the value to advertisers of such fine-grained information: Should advertisers assume that people are happy to be tracked and sent behavioural ads? Or should they have explicit permission?In December 2010 America's Federal Trade Cornmission (FTC) proposed adding a "do not track "(DNT) option to internet browsers ,so that users could tell adwertisers that they did not want to be followed .Microsoft's Internet Explorer and Apple's Safari both offer DNT ;Google's Chrome is due to do so this year. In February the FTC and Digltal Adwertising Alliance (DAA) agreed that the industry would get cracking on responging to DNT requests.On May 31st Microsoft Set off the row: It said that Internet Explorer 10,the version due to appear windows 8, would have DNT as a default.It is not yet clear how advertisers will respond. Geting a DNT signal does not oblige anyone to s top tracking, although some companies have promised to do so. Unable to tell whether someone really objects to behavioural ads or whether they are sticking with Microsoft’s default, some may ignore a DNT signal and press on anyway.Also unclear is why Microsoft has gone it alone. Atter all, it has an ad business too, which it says will comply with DNT requests, though it is still working out how. If it is trying to upset Google, which relies almost wholly on default will bec ome the norm. DNT does not seem an obviously huge selling point for windows 8-though the firm has compared some of its other products favourably with Google's on that count before. Brendon Lynch, MMicrosoft's chief privacy officer, bloggde:"we believe consumers should have more control." Could it really be that simple?26. It is suggested in paragraph 1 that “behavioural”ads help advertisers to（B）[A] ease competition among themselves[B] lower their operational costs[C] avoid complaints from consumers[D] provide better online services27. “The industry”(Line 6,Para.3) refers to: （D）[A] online advertisers[B] e-commerce conductors[C] digital information analysis[D] internet browser developers28. Bob Liodice holds that setting DNT as a default（C）[A] many cut the number of junk ads[B] fails to affect the ad industry[C] will not benefit consumers[D] goes against human nature29. which of the following is ture according to Paragraph.6? （A）[A] DNT may not serve its intended purpose[B] Advertisers are willing to implement DNT[C] DNT is losing its popularity among consumers[D] Advertisers are obliged to offer behavioural ads30. The author's attitude towards what Brendon Lynch said in his blog is one of: （D）[A] indulgence[B] understanding[C] appreciaction[D] skepticismText 3Up until a few decades ago, our visions of the future were largely - though by no means uniformly - glowingly positive. Science and technology would cure all the ills of humanity, leading to lives of fulfillment and opportunity for all.Now utopia has grown unfashionable, as we have gained a deeper appreciation of the range of threats facing us, from asteroid strike to epidemic flu and to climate change. Y ou might even be tempted to assume that humanity has little future to look forward to.But such gloominess is misplaced. The fossil record shows that many species have endured for millions of years - so why shouldn't we? Take a broader look at our species' place in the universe, and it becomes clear that we have an excellent chanc e of surviving for tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of years . Look up Homo sapiens in the "Red List" of threatened species of the International Union for the Conversation of Nature (IUCN) ,and you will read: "Listed as Least Concern as the species is very widely distributed, adaptable, currently increasing, and there are no major threats resulting in an overall population decline."So what does our deep future hold? A growing number of researchers and organisations are now thinking seriously about that question. For example, the Long Now Foundation has its flagship project a medical clock that is designed to still be marking time thousands of years hence .Perhaps willfully , it may be easier to think about such lengthy timescales than about the more immediate future. The potentialevolution of today's technology, and its social consequences, is dazzlingly complicated, and it's perhaps best left to science fiction writers and futurologists to explore the many possibilities we can envisage. That's one reason why we have launched Arc, a new publication dedicated to the near future.But take a longer view and there is a surprising amount that we can say with considerable assurance. As so often, the past holds the key to the future: we have now identified enough of the long-term patterns shaping the history of the planet, and our species, to make evidence-based forecasts about the situations in which our descendants will find themselves.This long perspective makes the pessimistic view of our prospects seem more likely to be a passing fad. To be sure, the future is not all rosy. But we are now knowledgeable enough to reduce many of the risks that threatened the existence of earlier humans, and to improve the lot of those to come.31. Our vision of the future used to be inspired by（B）[A] our desire for lives of fulfillment[B] our faith in science and technology[C] our awareness of potential risks[D] our belief in equal opportunity32. The IUCN’s “Red List”suggest that human being are（A）[A] a sustained species[B] a threaten to the environment[C] the world’s dominant power[D] a misplaced race33. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 5? （D）[A] Arc helps limit the scope of futurological studies.[B] Technology offers solutions to social problem.[C] The interest in science fiction is on the rise.[D] Our Immediate future is hard to conceive.34. To ensure the future of mankind, it is crucial to（C）[A] explore our planet’s abundant resources[B] adopt an optimistic view of the world[C] draw on our experience from the past[D] curb our ambition to reshape history35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text? （C）[A] Uncertainty about Our Future[B] Evolution of the Human Species[C] The Ever-bright Prospects of Mankind[D] Science, Technology and HumanityText 4On a five to three vote,the Supreme Court knocked out much of Arizona's immigration law Monday-a modest policy victory for the Obama Aministration.But on the more important matter of the Constitution,the decision was an 8-0 defeat for the federal government and the states.An arizona.United States,the majority overturned three of the four contested provisions of Arizona's controversial plan to have state and local police enfour federal immigrations law.The Constitutional principles that Washington alone has the power to "establish a uniform Rule of Anturalization" and that federal laws precede state laws are noncontroversial.Arizona had attempted to fashion state police that ran to the existing federal ones.Justice Anthony Kennedy,joined by Chief Justice John Roberts and the Court's liberals,ruled that the state flew too close to the federal sun .On the overturned provisions the majority held the congress had deliberately "occupied the field " and Arizona had thus intruded on the federal's privileged powersHowever,the Justices said that Arizona police would be allowed to verify the legal status of people who come in contact with law enforcement.That’s because Congress has always envisioned joint federal-state immigration enforcement and explicitly encourages state officers to share information and cooperate with federal colleagues.Two of the three objecting Justice-Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas-agreed with this Constitutional logic but disagreed about which Arizona rules conflicted with the federal statute. The only major objection came from Justice Antonin Scalia,who offered an even more robust defense of state privileges going back to the alien and Sedition Acts.The 8-0 objection to President Obama tures on what Justice Samuel Alito describes in his objection as “a shocking assertion assertion of federal executive power”. The White House argued tha Arizona’s laws conflicted with its enforcement priorities, even if state laws complied with federal statutes to the letter. In effect, the White House claimed that it could invalidate any otherwise legitimate state law that it disagrees with.Some powers do belong exclusively to the federal government,and control of citizenship and the borders is among them. But if Congress wanted to prevent states from using their own resources to check immigration status,it could.It could.It never did so.The administration was in essence asserting that because it didn't want to carry out Congress's immigration wishes,no state should be allowed to do so either.Every Justice rightly rejected this remarkable claim.36. Three provisions of Arizona’s plan were overturned because they（C）[A] deprived the federal police of Constitutional powers.[B] disturbed the power balance between different states.[C] overstepped the authority of federal immigration law.[D] contradicted both the federal and state policies.37. On which of the following did the Justices agree,according to Paragraph4? （C）[A] Federal officers’duty to withhold immigrants’information.[B] States’independence from federal immigration law.[C] States’legitimate role in immigration enforcement.[D] Congress’s intervention in immigration enforcement.38. It can be inferred from Paragraph 5 that the Alien and Sedition Acts（D）[A] violated the Constitution.[B] undermined the states’interests.[C] supported the federal statute.[D] stood in favor of the states.39. The White House claims that its power of enforcement（A）[A] outweighs that held by the states.[B] is dependent on the states’support.[C] is established by federal statutes.[D] rarely goes against state laws.40. What can be learned from the last paragraph? （B）[A] Immigration issues are usually decided by Congress.[B] Justices intended to check the power of the Administrstion.[C] Justices wanted to strengthen its coordination with Congress.[D] The Administration is dominant over immigration issues.Section III WritingPart A51.Directions:Write an e-mail of about 100 words to a foreign teacher in your college,inviting him/her to be a judge for the upcoming English speech contest.You should include the details you think necessary.You should write neatly on the ANSWER SHEET.Do not sign your own name at the end of the e “Li Ming”instead.Do not write the address.(10 points)参考范文：Dear Mr Smith,On behalf of the Student Union , I am sending this e-mail to you to invite you to act as our judge of English Speech Contest to be held in our university on May 5 .To be more specific , our contest is on the topic of how to embrace tough challenges in digital era.

In this cartoon , after graduation, a host of graduates may face diverse choices , ranging from postgraduate entrance exam to study abroad to job-hunting and so on . But when approaching a junction , which direction should one choose ? The caption, summarizing the message conveyed by this cartoon in a couple of words , reads : “choice”This picture inspires me hugely.The cartoonist strives to bring home to us a single clear message : making choice matters much for a person’s success. Stated in another way, a folk would be permanently locked out of the league of successful elites if he or she lacks the awareness of choice . To be more specific , on the basis of self-evaluation and development goal in the foreseeable future , different folks possess different options .From my own perspective , option is truly among the most important of elements that drive individuals to success. Losing sight of the crucial importance of option would be a major obstacle to one’s success. Meanwhile , when making every opti on , we are supposed to take self-evaluation and interest into consideration. On a broader level, a persistent atmosphere of placing a high value on cultivating of making options is sorely needed. Only in this way can we embrace a brighter future.选择题答案：1-5 ABCDB 6-10 DAADC 11-15 ACBCB 15-20 CDDBA21-25 BAADC26-30 BDCAD 31-35 BADCC 36-40 CCDAB 41-45 EFBGC。

2013英语三级阅读专练(含答案解析)
2013英语三级阅读理解模拟练习ATae kwon do(跆拳道) is the Korean martial(军事的）art of hand-to-hand combat（战斗)．Maybe that should really be body—to—body combat because in tae kwon do the whole body must be trained to properly defend and attack．There are some similarities between tae kwon do and other martial arts．For example，tae kwon do uses quick straight-line moves which can also be found in Japanese martial arts,but tae kwon do also uses flowing circular moves like the type of moves found in Chinese martial arts．The main difference between tae kwon do and other martial arts is the powerful kicking technique which tae kwon do uses．This is where the name tae kwon do comes from．In Korean，tae means”to kick",kwon means"to strike with the hand"，and do means”art"．Therefore，tae kwon do can be translated as"the art of kicking and punching”．Paintings found on the walls and ceilings of ancient Korean tombs in-dicate that tae kwon do，or something similar to it，has been practiced in Korea since about 50 B．C．Also，records of a specially trained group of young warriors called Hwarang explain how these young men were taught taek kyon（an early form of tae kwon do）along with history，philosophy，ethics,archery，riding，and sword fighting．Members of the Hwarang were also encouraged to travel throughout Korea in order to learn about the people who lived in all regions of the country．This helped spread the practice of taek kyon throughout Korea．Eventually taek kyon，which was practiced for exercise and sport was replaced by subak，another martial art ．The purpose of subak was specifically fighting，so members of the military were required to learn it．However，people's interest in subak died out over time．By the 1800s，few Koreans actually practiced subak．After Korea was invaded in 1909,authorities put an end to the practice of all martial arts in the country．In the long run，this ban actually led to increased interest in martial arts，and secret groups began to practice subak again in the Buddhist temples hidden high in the mountains in Korea．After Korea gained its independence again in 1948，interest in many forms of martial arts grew around the country．The Korean Tae Kwon Do Association was formed in 1961，and this was followed by the World Tae Kwon Do Federation in 1973．Today，tae kwon do enjoys great popularity around the world．More than 20 million people practice tae kwon do in more than 120 countries．Tae kwon do was also made an official demonstration sport in the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul，Korea．41．Tae kwon do means_____．[ A ]．martial arts[ B ]．the art of kicking and punching［C ]．taek kyon or subak[ D ]．younger warrior42．How is tae kwon do different from other forms of martial arts？[ A ]．The movements are straight．[ B ]．It is practiced by men and women．［C ］．It uses powerful kicks．[ D ］．The movements are flowing．43．What was the Hwarang？[ A ]．A kind of martial arts．［B ］．A group of warriors．［C ］．A kind of painting．[ D ］．An early form of tae kwon do．44．Where did Koreans practice martial arts after being invaded in 1909？［A ］．In Buddhist temples．［B ］．In sports competitions．［C ］．In special schools．［D ］．In tunnels．45．When was tae kwon do first seen at an Olympic competition？［A ]．1948．[ B ]．1973．[ C ]．1961．[ D ]．1988．BFrom the earliest times，man has been interested in art．People have often worked together to collect and save the world’s art treasures．Fine art treasures from many countries are kept in an art museum called the Louvre in Paris，France．The works of art have been collected by the people of France over many centuries．The Louvre has not always been a museum．The first building was a fort（炮台）．In 1190，it was the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower．It had a moat to keep out his enemies．Over the years，the number of buildings around the castle grew．By 1350,the castle was no longer needed as a fort．The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens．During times of peace,new treasures were brought in．During days of war,many treasures were stolen,and the buildings were damaged．When Francis I became king of France in 1515，he brought in artists from many countries．One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy．Da Vinci’s”Mona Lisa"is the best known painting in the museum today．In 1793，the Louvre became a public museum，just as it is now．It is a place where art treasures have been saved for everyone to enjoy．46．On the whole,this passage is mainly about____。

(一)Proxemics(空间关系学) is the study of what governs how closely one person stands to another. People who feel close will be close, though the actual distances will vary between cultures. For Amreicans we can discern four main categories of distance: intimate, personal, social and public. Intimate ranges from direct contact to about 45 centimeters. This is for the closest relationships such as those between husband and wife. Beyond this comes personal distance. This stands at between 45 and 80 centimeters. It is the most usual distance maintained for conversations between friends and relatives. Social distance covers people who work together or are meeting at social gatherings. Distances here tend to be kept between 1.30 to 2 meters. Beyond this comes public distance, such as that between a lecturer and his audience.All cultures draw lines between what is an appropriate and what is an inappropriate social distance for different types of relationship. They differ, however, in where they draw these lines. Look at an international reception withrepresentatives from the US and Arabic countries conversing and you will see the Americans pirouetting(快速旋转) backwards around the hall pursued by their Arab partners. The Americans will be trying to keep the distance between themselves and their partners which they have grown used to regarding as “normal”. They probably will not even notice themselves trying to adjust the distance between themselves and their partners, though they may have vague feeling that their Arab neighbors are being a bit “pushy”. The Arab, on the other hand, coming from a culture where much closer distance is the norm, may be feeling that the Americans are being “stand-offish”. Finding themselves happier standing close to and even touching those they are in conversation with they will persistently pursue the Americans round the room trying to close the distance between them.The appropriateness of physical contact varies between different cultures too. One study of the number of times people conversing in coffee shops over a one hour period showed the following interesting variations: London, 0; Florida, 2; Paris, 10; and Puerto Rico 180. Not only dose it vary between societies, however, it also varies between different subcultures within one society. Young people in Britain, for example, are more likely to touch and hug friends than are the older generation. This may be partly a matter of growing older, but it also reflects the fact that the older generation grew up at a time when touching was less common for all age groups. Forty years ago, for example, footballers would never hug and kiss one another on the field after a goal as they do today.1.In proxemics, ____governs the standing space between two persons.A. distanceB. cultureC. conversationD. relationship2.The word “stand-offish”(Line 14, Para. 2) could best be replaced by_________.A. cold and distant in behaviourB. ungentlemanlike in behaviourC. inhuman in behaviourD. polite in behaviour3. In conversation with an American partner at an international reception, an Arab deems that close distant is _________.A. appropriateB. inappropriateC. rashD. impetuous4. We can infer from the third paragragh that the appropriateness of physical contact also varies with_________.A. timeB. cityC. countryD. people5. The best title for the passage would be __________.A. ProxemicsB. Appropriateness of Social DistanceC. Appropriateness Relationships Between Two PersonsD. Appropriateness Physical Contact Between Two Persons答案DAAAA（二）In the past century Irish painting has changes from a British-influenced lyrical tradition to an art that evokes the ruggedness and roots of an Irish Celtic past. At the turn of the twentieth century Irish painters, including notables Walter Frederick Osbo rne and Sir William Orpen, looked elsewhere for influence. Osborne’s exposure to “plein air” painting deeply impacted his stylistic development; and Orpen allied himself with a group of English artists, while at the same time participated in the French avant-garde experiment, both as painter and teacher.However, nationalist energies were beginning to coalesce (接合)，reviving interest in Irish culture-including Irish visual arts. Beatrice Elvery’s (1907), a landmark achievement, merged the devotional simplici ty offifteenth-century Italian painting with the iconography (肖像画法) of Ireland’s Celtic past, linking the history of Irish Catholicism with the still-nasce t (初生的) Irish republic. And, although also captivated by the French plein air school, Sir John Lavery invoked the mythology of his native land for a 1928 commission to paint the central figure for the bank note of the new Irish Free State. Lavery chose as this figure, with her arm on a Celtic harp (竖琴)，the national symbol of independent Ireland.In Irish painting from about 1910, memories of Edwardian romanticism coexisted with a new sense of realism,exemplified by the paintings of Paul Henry and Se Keating, a student of Orpen’s. realism also crept into the work of Edwardians Lavery and Orpen, both of whom made paintings depicting World WarⅠ,Lavery with a distanced Victorian nobility, Orpen closer to the front, revealing a more sinister and realistic vision. Meanwhile, counterpoint to the Edwardians and realists came Jack B. Yeats, whose travels throughout the rugged and more authentically Irish West led him to depict subjects ranging from street scenes in Dublin to boxing matches and funerals. Fusing close observations of Irish life and icons with an Irish identity in a new way, Yeats changed the face of Irish painting and became the most important Irishartist of his century.1. Which of the following art most probably exerted the greatest influence on Irish painting in the 19th century?A. British lyrical traditionB. French avant-garde experimentC. notionalist energiesD. Italian painting2. It is implied_________was least influenced by the contemporary art of Frence.A. Sir John LaveryB. Sir William OrpenC. Beatrice ElveryD. Se Keating3. Which of the following best explains the author’s use of the word “counterpoint” in referring to Yeats?A. Yeats’ paintings differed significantly in subject matter from those of his contemporaries in Ireland.B. Yeats reacted to the realism of his contemporary artists by invoking nineteenth-century naturalism in his own painting style.C. Yeats avoided religious and mythological themes in favor of mundane portrayals of Irish life.D. Yeats built upon the realism painting tradition, elevating it to unprecedented artistic heights.4. The author points out the coexistence of romanticism and realism most probably in order to showthat_________.A. Irish painters of the early twentieth century tended to romanticize the harsh reality of warB. for a time painters from each school influenced painters from the other schoolC. Yeats was influenced by both the romantic and realist schools of Irish paintingD. the transition in Irish painting from one predominant style to the other was not an abrupt one5. The most likely topic of the paragraph followed is _________.A. The Role of Celtic Mythology in Irish PaintingB. Who Deserves Credit for the Preeminence of Yeats among Irish Painters?C. Realism vs. Romanticism: Ireland’s Struggle for National IdentityD. Irish Paintings: Reflections of an Emerging Independent State答案AAADD（三）In the last 12 years total employment in the United States grew faster than at any time in the peacetime history of any country – from 82 to 110 million between 1973 and 1985 – that is, by a full one third. The entire growth, however, was in manufacturing, and especially in no – blue-collar jobs…This trend is the same in all developed countries, and is, indeed, even more pronounced in Japan. It is therefore highly probable that in 25 years developed countries such as the United States and Japan will employ no larger a proportion of the labor force I n manufacturing than developed countries now employ in farming – at most, 10 percent. Today the United States employs around 18 million people in blue-collar jobs in manufacturing industries. By 2010, the number is likely to be no more than 12 million. In some major industries the drop will be even sharper. It is quite unrealistic, for instance, to expect that the American automobile industry will employ more than one–third of its present blue-collar force 25 years hence, even though production might be 50 percent higher.If a company, an industry or a country does not in the next quarter century sharply increase manufacturing production and at the same time sharply reduce the blue-collar work force, it cannot hope to remain competitive – or even to remain “developed.” The attempt to preserve such blue – collar jobs is actually a prescription for unemployment…This is not a conclusion that American politicians, labor leaders or indeed the general public can easily understand or accept. What confuses the issue even more it that the United States is experiencing several separate and different shifts in the manufacturing economy. One is the acceleration of the substitution of knowledge and capital for manual labor. Where we spoke of mechanization a few decades ago, we now speak of “robotization “ or “automation.” This is actually more a change in terminology than a change in reality. When Henry Ford introduced the assembly line in 1909, he cut the number of man – hours required to produce a motor car by some 80 percent in two or three years –far more than anyone expects to result from even the most complete robotization. But there is no doubt that we are facing a new, sharp acceleration in the replacement of manual workers by machines –that is, by the products of knowledge.1.According to the author, the shrinkage in the manufacturing labor force demonstrates______.A.the degree to which a country’s production is robotizedB.a reduction in a country’s manufacturing i ndustriesC.a worsening relationship between labor and managementD.the difference between a developed country and a developing country2.According to the author, in coming 25years, a developed country or industry, in order t remain competitive, ought to ______.A.reduce the percentage of the blue-collar work forceB.preserve blue – collar jobs for international competitionC.accelerate motor –can manufacturing in Henry Ford’s styleD.solve the problem of unemployment3.American politicians and labor leaders tend to dislike_____.A.confusion in manufacturing economyB.an increase in blue – collar work forceC.internal competition in manufacturing productionD.a drop in the blue – collar job opportunities4.The word “prescription” in “a prescription for unemployment” may be the equivalent to ______A.something recommended as medical treatmentB.a way suggested to overcome some difficultyC.some measures taken in advanceD.a device to dire5.This passage may have been excepted from ________A.a magazine about capital investmentB.an article on automationC.a motor-car magazineD.an article on global economy答案：AADCD（四）What does the future hold for the problem of housing? A good deal depends, of course, on the meaning of “future”. If one is thinking in terms of science fiction and the space age, it is at least possible to assume that man will have solved such trivial and earthly problems as housing. Writers of science fiction, from H.G. Wells onwards, have had little to say on the subject. They have conveyed the suggestion that men will live in great comfort, with every conceivable apparatus to make life smooth, healthy and easy, if not happy. But they have not said what his house will be made of. Perhaps some new building material, as yet unimagined, will have been discovered or invented at least. One may be certain that bricks and mortar(泥灰，灰浆) will long have gone out of fashion.But the problems of the next generation or two can more readily be imagined. Scientists have already pointed out that unless something is done either to restrict the world’s rapid growth in population or to discover and develop new sources of food (or both), millions of people will be dying of starvation or at the best suffering from underfeeding before this century is out. But nobody has yet worked out any plan for housing these growing populations. Admittedly the worst situations will occur in the hottest parts of the world, where housing can be light structure or in backward areas where standards are traditionally low. But even the minimum shelter requires materials of some kind and in the teeming, bulging towns the low-standard “housing” of flattened petrol cans and dirty canvas is far more wasteful of ground space than can be tolerated.Since the war, Hong Kong has suffered the kind of crisis which is likely to arise in many other places during the next generation. Literally millions of refugees arrived to swell the already growing population and emergency steps had to be taken rapidly to prevent squalor(肮脏)and disease and the spread crime. The city is tackling the situation energetically and enormous blocks of tenements(贫民住宅)are rising at an astonishing aped. But Hong Kong is only one small part of what will certainly become a vast problem and not merely a housing problem, because when population grows at this rate there are accompanying problems of education, transport, hospital services, drainage, water supply and so on. Not every area may give the same resources as Hong Kong to draw upon and the search for quicker and cheaper methods of construction must never cease.1.What is the author’s opinion of housing problems in the first paragraph?A.They may be completely solved at sometime in the future.B.They are unimportant and easily dealt with.C.They will not be solved until a new building material has been discovered.D.They have been dealt with in specific detail in books describing the future.2.The writer is sure that in the distant future ___.A.bricks and mortar will be replaced by some other building material.B.a new building material will have been invented.C.bricks and mortar will not be used by people who want their house to be fashionable.D.a new way of using bricks and mortar will have been discovered.3.The writer believes that the biggest problem likely to confront the world before the end of the century ___.A.is difficult to foresee.B.will be how to feed the ever growing population.C.will be how to provide enough houses in the hottest parts of the world.D.is the question of finding enough ground space.4.When the writer says that the worst situations will occur in the hottest parts of the world or in backward areas, he is referring to the fact that in these parts ___.A.standards of building are low.B.only minimum shelter will be possible.C.there is not enough ground space.D.the population growth will be the greatest.5.Which of the following sentences best summarizes Paragraph 3?A.Hong Kong has faced a serious crisis caused by millions of refugees.B.Hong Kong has successfully dealt with the emergency caused by millions of refugees.C.Hong Kong’s crisis was not only a matter of housing but included a number of other problems of population growth.D.Many parts of the world may have to face the kind of problems encountered by Hong Kong and may find it much harder to deal with them.答案：AABDD（五）It being not only possible but even easy to predict which ten-year-old boys are at greatest risk of growing up to be persistent offenders, what are we doing with the information? Just about the last thing that we should do is to wait until their troubles have escalated in adolescence and then attack them with the provisions of the new Criminal Justice Bill.If this bill becomes law, magistrates will have the power to impose residential care orders. More young people will be drawn into institutional life when all the evidence shows that this worsens rather than improves their prospects. The introduction of short sharp shocks in detention centers will simply give more young people a taste of something else they don’t need; the whole regime of detention centers is one of toughening delinquents, and if you want to train someone to be anti-establishment, “I can’t think of a better way to do it,” says the writer of this report.The Cambridge Institute of Criminology comes up with five key factors that are likely to make for delinquency: a low income family a large family, parents deemed by social workers to be bad at raising children, parents who themselves have a criminal record, and low intelligence in the child. Not surprisingly, the factors tend to overlap. Of the 63 boys in the sample who had at least three of them when they were ten, half became juvenile delinquents—compared with only a fifth of the sample as a whole.Three more factors make the prediction more accurate: being judged troublesome by teachers at the age of ten, having a father with at least two criminal convictions and having another member of the family with a criminal record. Of the 35 men who had at least two of these factors in their background 18 became persistent delinquents and 8 more were in trouble with the law.Among those key factors, far and away the most important was having a parent with a criminal record, even if that had been acquired in the distant past, even though very few parents did other than condemn delinquent behavior in their children.The role of the schools emerges as extremely important. The most reliable prediction of all on the futures of boys came from teachers’ ratings of how troublesome they were at the age of ten. If the information is there in the classroom there must be a response that brings more attention to those troublesome children: a search for things to give them credit for other than academic achievement, a refusal to allow them to go on playing truant, and a fostering of ambition and opportunity which should start early in their school careers.1.According to the author, delinquency should be tackled ___.A.before adolescenceB.during institutional treatmentC.during adolescenceD.when the problem becomes acute2.The number of young offenders could be reduced by the way of ___.A.new legal measuresB.better residential careC.brief periods of harsh punishmentD.examination of their backgrounds3.What is the outcome result of putting young offenders into detention centers?A.They become more violentB.They receive useful trainingC.They become used to institutionsD.They turn against society4.Ten-year-old children likely to become offenders are usually___.A.spoilt children from small families.B.bright children in a poor family.C.dull children with many brothers and sisters.D.children whose parents have acquired wealth dishonestly.5.The writer concludes that potential offenders could be helped by ___.A.spending more time at schoolB.more encouragement at schoolC.more activities outside schoolD.stricter treatment from teachers答案：ADDCB（六）The word religion is derived from the Latin noun religio, which denotes both earnest observance of ritual obligations and an inward spirit of reverence. In modern usage, religion covers a wide spectrum of meaning that reflects the enormous variety of ways the term can be interpreted. At one extreme, many committed believers recognize only their own tradition as a religion, understanding expressions such as worship and prayer to refer exclusively to the practices of their tradition. Although many believers stop short of claiming an exclusive status for their tradition, they may nevertheless use vague or idealizing terms in defining religion for example, true love of God, or the path of enlightenment. At the other extreme, religion may be equated with ignorance, fanaticism, or wishful thinking.By defining religion as a sacred engagement with what is taken to be a spiritual reality, it is possible to consider the importance of religion in human life without making claims about what it really is or ought to be. Religion is not an object with a single, fixed meaning, or even a zone with clear boundaries. It is an aspect of human experience that may intersect, incorporate, or transcend other aspects of life and society. Such a definition avoid the drawbacks of limiting the investigation of religion to Western or biblical categories such as monotheism (belief in one god only) or to church structure, which are not universal. For example, in tribal societies, religion unlike the Christian church usually is not a separate institution but pervades the whole of public and private life.In Buddhism, gods are not as central as the idea of a Buddha. In many traditional cultures, the idea of a sacred cosmic order is the most prominent religious belief. Because of this variety, some scholars prefer to use a general term such as the sacred to designate the common foundation of religious life.Religion in this understanding includes a complex of activities that cannot be reduced to any single aspect of human experience. It is a part of individual life but also of group dynamics. Religion includes patterns of behavior but also patterns of language and thought. It is sometimes a highly organized institution that sets itself apart from a culture, and it is sometimes an integral part of a culture. Religious experience may be expressed in visual symbols, dance and performance, elaborate philosophical systems, legendary and imaginative stories, formal ceremonies, and detailed rules of ethical conduct and law. Each of these elements assumes innumerable cultural forms. In some ways there are as many forms of religious expression as there are human cultural environments.1.What is the passage mainly concerned about?A.Religion has a variety of interpretation.B.Religion is a reflection of ignorance.C.Religion is not only confined to the Christian categories.D.Religion includes all kinds of activities.2.What does the word “observance” probably convey in Para. 1?A.noticeB.watchingC.conformityD.experience3.According to the passage what people generally consider religion to be?A.Fantastic observanceB.Spiritual practiceC.Individual observance of traditionD.A complex of activities4.Which of the following is not true?A.It is believed by some that religion should be what it ought to be.B.“The path of enlightenment” is a definition that the author doesn’t agree to.C.According to the author, the committed believers define religion improperly.D.The author doesn’t speak in favor of the definition of “the sacred”.5.Which of the following is religion according to the passage?A.Performance of human beings.B.Buddha, monotheism and some tribal tradition.C.Practice separated from culture.D.All the above.答案：ACBDB（七）You stare at waterfall for a minute or two, and then shift your gaze to its surroundings. What you now see appears to drift upward.These optical illusions occur because the brain is constantly matching its model of reality to signals from the body’s sensors and interpreting what must be happening—that your brain must have moved, not the other; that downward motions is now normal, so a change from it must now be perceived as upward motion.The sensors that make this magic are of two kinds. Each eye contains about 120 million rods, which provide somewhat blurry black and white vision. These are the windows of night vision; once adapted to the dark, they can detect a candle burning ten miles away.Color vision in each eye comes from six to seven million structures called cones. Under ideal conditions, every cone can “see” the entire rainbow spectrum of visible colors, but one type of cone is most sensitive to red, another to green, a third to blue.Rods and cones send their messages pulsing an average 20 to 25 times per second along the optic nerve. We see an image for a fraction of a second longer than it actually appears. In movies, reels of still photographs are projected onto screens at 24 frames per second, tricking our eyes into seeing a continuous moving picture.Like apparent motion, color vision is also subject to unusual effects. When day gives way to night, twilight brings what the p oet T.S. Eliot called “the violet hour.” A light levels fall, the rods become progressively less responsive. Rods are most sensitive to the shorter wavelengths of blue and green, and they impart a strange vividness to the garden’s blue flowers.However, lo ok at a white shirt during the reddish light of sunset, and you’ll still see it in its “true” color—white, not red. Our eyes are constantly comparing an object against its surroundings. They therefore observe the effect of a shift in the color of illuminating on both, and adjust accordingly.The eyes can distinguish several million graduations of light and shade of color. Each waking second they flash tens of millions of pieces of information to the brain, which weaves them incessantly into a picture of the world around us.Yet all this is done at the back of each eye by a fabric of sensors, called the retina, about as wide and as thick as a postage stamp. As the Renaissance inventor and artist Leonardo da Vinci wrote in wonder, “Who would believe that so sm all a space could contain the images of all the universe?”1.Visual illusions often take place when the image of reality is ___.A.matched to six to seven million structures called cones.B.confused in the body’s sensors of both rods and cones.C.interpreted in the brain as what must be the case.D.signaled by about 120 million rods in the eye.2.The visual sensor that is capable of distinguishing shades of color is called ___.A.conesB.color visionC.rodsD.spectrum3.The retina send pulses to the brain ___.A.in short wavelengthsB.as color picturesC.by a ganglion cellD.along the optic nerve.4.Twenty-four still photographs are made into a continuous moving picture just because ___.A.the image we see usually stays longer than it actually appears.B.we see an object in comparison with its surroundings.C.the eyes catch million pieces of information continuously.D.rods and cones send messages 20 to 25 times a second.5.The author’s purpose in writing the passage lies in ___.A.showing that we sometimes are deceived by our own eyes.rming us about the different functions of the eye organs.C.regretting that we are too slow in the study of eyes.D.marveling at the great work done by the retina.答案：CADAB。
