第二部分：阅读理解（共15 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 30 分）

Passage 1

Television has opened windows in everybody ’ s life. Young men will never again go to war as th did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a

general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the

terrible things that have been shown on the screen.

Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and

hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to

make their opinion count.

Unfortunately, television’ s influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to

sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal

and acceptable. All educators agree that the “ televisiongenerations are” more violent than their parents and grandparents.

Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting,

they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’ t do funny things like the people on children

And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That

takes on the screen.

11.In the past, many young people ______.

A. knew the effects of war

B. went in for politics

C. liked to save the wounded in

wars D. were willing to be soldiers

12.Now with TV people can _____.

A. discuss politics at an information center

B. show more interest in politics

C. make their own decisions on political affairs

D. express their opinions freely

13.The author thinks that TV advertisements _____.

A. are not reliable on the whole

B. are useless to people

C. are a good guide to adults

D. are very harmful to the young

14.Which is NOT true according to the passage?

A. People have become used to crimes now.

B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.

C. People now like to read books with pictures.

D. The adults are less violent than the young.

15.From the passage, we can conclude that _____.

A. children should keep away from TV

https://www.360docs.net/doc/e218728510.html, programs should be improved

C. children’ s books should have pictures

D. TV has a deep influence on the young

Passage2

Nonverbal (非语言的 ) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of

two people when they are talking. The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on

have meaning which words do not carry.

For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be

or“ distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person shespeaking to . The“ eyecontact ”provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than

there is between people who don’ t like each otherlength.Thof time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about.

On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a

great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone

who is always smiling, and with little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.

16.According to the passage, nonverbal communication _____.

A. is a method often used by people who cannot speak

B. can tell something that words cannot

C. can be used to talk with people who cannot

bear D. is less used than words

17.The South American _____.

A. tends to keep a distance between himself and the person he is speaking to

B. usually stands close to the person he is talking to

C. is often unfriendly when spoken to

D. is often cold and distant when speaking

18. Which of the following is NOT true?

A. Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.

B. The longer one looks at you, the more interest he has in you.

C. There is more eye contact between people who like each other.

D. Shorter eye contact shows more interest in what one is talking about.

19. Too long a gaze _____.

A. may upset people being looked at

B. shows one’ s great confidence

C. indicates one’ s interest in the talk

D. tells you how friendly one is

20.Constant smiling without apparent reason _____.

A. is a sign of one ’ s friendliness

B. is a sign of one’ s unfriendliness

C. makes people feel happy

D. makes people feel uncomfortable

Passage 3

My husband had just bought a new washing machine for me. I decided to use it and I washed

a lot of things.

Everything worked well, but I found one of my husband's socks missing. I looked everywhere

for it, but I couldn't find it anywhere.

The next morning, I got ready for school as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in. I greeted them first and then told them what we were going to do that day.

When I turned around to write on the blackboard, the class broke out a roar!

They laughed and laughed. They laughed so much, in fact, that I was afraid the headmaster would be into seeing all this.

I asked the class to stop, but the more I talked, the more they laughed. I decided to pay no attention to them and I continued to write on the blackboard. When I did this, they roared even more.

Finally, the teacher who had the room next to mine came in to see what all the laughter was about. When he came in, he started laughing, too!

"Good heavens," I said. "Will someone please tell me what is so funny?"

"Oh, God," said the teacher. "You have a brown sock to the back of your skirt!"

So that's how I found my husband's missing sock.

"Oh, well," I said to the class. "Let's just say you have had an unforgettable lesson on static ( 静止的 ) electricity."
