[07:47.55]Reading Comprehension  (35 minutes)

[07:46.55]Directions:There are 4 passage in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked [A],[B],[C] and [D].You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.

[07:45.55]Passage One

[07:44.55]Question 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

[07:43.55]Some people are accustomed to thinking that facts must either be believed or they must be disbelieved-as if beliefs were like a light switch with only two positions,on or off.My use of the bathtub hoax 3 is intended to illustrate 4 that belief does not have to operate as a simple yes or no choice,all or nothing.Belief can be more conditional;it can be something that we decide to have"up to a point"or"to a degree."And so,the question we might ask ourselves while reading does not have to be"Should I believe it or not?"but instead can be"How much should I believe it?"This later question implies that the belief we have in any given fact,or in any given idea,is not determined 5 by whether it sounds right or whether the source is an authority.It means that our beliefs are determined by the reasons that justify 6 them.Belief is not a mechanical action,brought about by invariable rules of nature.It is a human activity,the exercise of judgment 7.With this in mind,we might say that we perform this action better when we know what the reasons are that have led to our belief,and why they are good reasons.These observations do not deprive us of our ability to believe in what we read.They are not intended to transform you from credulous 8 believers into stuborn doubters.The process of weighing beliefs against the quality of reasons is one that you already go through all the time,whether you are aware of it or not.We all do.The practice of critical reading is the exercise of this kind of judgment on purpose.By doing it,we protect ourselves from being led into belief for inadequate 9 reasons,but at the same time we open up our minds to the possibility of arriving at belief for adequate ones.If we decide to grant or withhold 10 consent based on the quality of the reasons that we are given,we admit at the same time that two things are possible:We admit that we might consent less in the future if we discover that the reasons are not so good after all;and we admit that we might consent more if we are ever presented with better reasons than we had formerly 11 known.This attitude is not pure skepticism any more than it is pure credulity.It is somewhere in between.It is the attitude of an open-minded thinker,of someone who wishes to be responsible for deciding for herself or himself what to believe.

[07:42.55]21.The author's use of bathtub hoax is meant to suggest that_.  A.facts must be believed unconditionally 12  B.belief is more than a simple yes or no choice  C.nothing should be believed or disbelieved  D.belief is nothing but a light switch

[07:41.55]22.To believe or disbelieve what you read should be based on_.  A.the facts that you are given  B.whether the author is open-minded or not  C.the quality of reasons provided by the material  D.the assumption that you know everything about it

[07:40.55]23.As a human activity,weighing the facts about something is actually_.  A.determined by the rules of nature  B.a purposeful performance  C.brought about even at brith  D.experienced by everybody

[07:39.55]24.According to the author,which of the following statements is True?  A.Our attitude toward that we read may change if we are given more reasons.  B.An open-minded thinker is responsible for what he or she says.  C.Critical reading can make us believe more in what we read.  D.We ought to question the value of what we read if its source is not authoritative 13.

[07:38.55]25.What is the topic of this passage?  A.Judgement and Responsibility  B.Reading and Belief  C.Distrust and Faith  D.Reading and Human Activity

[07:37.55]Passage Two

[07:36.55]Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

[07:35.55]Every once in a while the reasons for discouragement about the human prospect 14 pile up so high that it becomes difficult to see the way adead,and it is then a great blessing 15 to have one conspicuous 16 and undeniable good thing to think about ourselves,something solid enough to step onto and look beyond the pile.Language is often useful for this,and music.A particular painting,if you have the right receptors,can lift the spirits and hold them high enough to see a whole future for the race.The sound of laughter in the distance in the dark can be a marvelous encouragement.But these are uncertain stimuli,ready to work only if you happen to be ready to receive them,which takes a bit of luch.I have been reading magazine stories about the technology of lie detection lately,and it occurs to me that this may be the thing I've been looking for,an encouragement supported by genuine,hard scientific data.It is promising 17 enough that I've decided 18 to take as given what the articles say,uncriticaly,and to look no further.As I understand it,a human being cannot tell a lie,even a small one,without setting off a kind of smoke alarm somewhere deep in a dark recess 19 of the brain,resulting in the sudden discharge of nerve impulses,or the sudden outpouring of neurohormones(神经激素) of some sort,or both.The outcome,recorded by the liedetector device is similar to the responses to various kinds stress.Lying,then is stressful,even when we do it for protection,or relief,or escape,or profit,or just for the pure pleasure of lying and getting away with it.It is a strain,distressing enough to cause the emission 21 of signals to and from the central nervous system warning that something has gone wrong.It is,in a pure physiological 22 sense,an unnatural 23 act.Now I regard this as a piece of extraordinarily 24 good news,neaning,that we are compelled to be a moral species at least in the limited sense that we are biologically designed to be truthful 25 to each other.It seems a petty thing to have this information,but perhaps it tells us to look again,and look deeper.We are indeed a social species,more dependent on each other than the celebrated 26 social insects,we can no more live a solitary 27 life than can a bee,we are obliged,as a species,to rely on each other.Trust is a fundamental repuirement for our kind of existence,and without it all our linkages 28 would begin to snap loose.It is enough,quite enough,to know that we cannot even tell a plain untruth,betray a trust,without scaring some part of our own brains.

[07:34.55]26.In the first paragraph,the author implies that_.  A.there are a lot of obstacles on the way ahead of human beings.  B.human beings are surrounded by piles of rubbish  C.we are convinced that men are born evil  D.man's future is seen to be better advantage from his good nature

[07:33.55]27.According to the second paragraph,which of the following statements is True?  A.Language is as useful music.  B.Painting is the best of all in lifting one's spirits.  C.Not everyone is given the chance of a good future.  D.To see human's bright side is a game of chance.

[07:32.55]28.In the author's opinion,_.  A.physiological changes will for sure betray a liar 29  B.the bigger a lie is,the stronger the strain will be  C.the degree of the strain depends on the purpose of lying.  D.a well-trained person can tell lies without being detected

[07:31.55]29.The information given by the lie detector 20,according to the author,is_.  A.trivial  B.essential  C.surprising  D.wrong

[07:30.55]30.The message the author transmits to us is that_.  A.a lie detector can make a good record of nerve impulses  B.a liar benefits himself from lying,but only at the cost of others  C.it is vital for us to be truthful to each other  D.lying will be checked by more advanced lie detectors 30

[07:29.55]Passage Three

[07:28.55]Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

[07:27.55]Whether work should be placed among the causes of happiness or among the causes of unhappiness may perhaps be regarded as a doubtful question.There is certainly much work which is exceedingly weary and an excess of work is always very painful.I think,however,that,provided work is not excessive in amount,even the dullest work is to most people less painful than idleness.There are in work all grades,from mere 31 relief of tedium 32 up to the profoundest delights,according to the nature of the work and the abilities of the worker.Most of the work that most people have to do is not in itself interesting,but even such work has certain great advantages.To begin with,it fills a good many hours of the day without the need of deciding what one shall do.Most people,when they are left free to fill their own time own time according to their own choice,are at a loss to think of anything sufficiently 33 pleasant to be worth doing.And whatever they decide on,they are troubled by the feeling that something else would have been pleasanter.To be able to fill leisure intelligently is the last product of civilization,and at present very few people have reach this level.Moreover the exercise of choice is in itself tiresome 34.Except to people with unusual initiative it is positively 35 agreeable to be told what to do at each hour of the day,provided the orders are not too unpleasant.Most of the idle rich suffer unspeakable boredom 36 as the price of their freedom from toil 37.At times they may find relief by hunting big game in Africa,or by flying round the world,but the number of such sensations is limited,especially after youth is past.Accordingly the more intelligent rich men work nearly as hard as if they were poor,while rich women for the most part keep themselves busy with innumerable trifles of whose earth-shaking importance they are firmly persuaded.Work therefore is desirable,first and foremost,as a preventive of boredom,for the boredom that a man feels when he is doing necessary though uninteresting work is as nothing in comparison with the boredom that he feels when he has nothing to do with his days.With this advantage of work another is associated,namely that it makes holidays much more delicious when they come.Provided a man does not have to work so hard as to impair 38 his vigor,he is likely to find far more zest 39 in his free time than an idle man could possibly find.The second advantage of most paid work and of some unpaid 40 work is that it gives chances of success and opportunities for ambition.In most work success is measured by income,and while our capitalistic society continues,this is inevitable 41.It is only where the best work is concerned that this measure ceases to be the natural one to apply.The desire that men feel to increase their income is quite as much a desire for success as for the extra comforts that a higher income can acquire.However dull work may be,it becomes bearable if it is a means of building up a reputation,whether in the world at large or only in one's own circle.

[07:26.55]31.What is author's opinion about work?  A.Work is very tiresome,especially when too excessive.  B.Work is a cause of the greatest delight of life.  C.Work can at least give relief from boredom.  D.Work can keep people busy as if they were poo

[07:25.55]32.In the author's opinion,what is the last product of civilization?  A.To work to some extent. B.To be free from hard work.  C.To make wise use of leisure.  D.To keep oneself busy with trifle

[07:24.55]33.According to the passage,to be told to do something is generally_?  A.acceptable  B.respectable  C.insulting  D.admiring

[07:23.55]34.According to the passage,success can mostly be measured in terms of_.  A.enjoyment 42  B.income  C.initiative  D.intelligence

[07:22.55]35.As put by the author,most of the work that most people have to do is_.  A.not interesting but very rewarding  B.exceedingly dull and always painful  C.delightful 43 but time consuming  D.not worth doing and bearable at all

[07:21.55]Passage Four

[07:20.55]Question 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

[07:19.55]An Asian engineer is assigned to a U.S.laboratory and almost suffers a nervous breakdown 44 U.S.A.executive dissension.A Japanese manager is promoted by his British president,but within six months asks for a transfer.Each of these real-life cases involved people who were regarded as superior employees,but were ill-e-quipped to cope with the complexities 45 and dangers of intercultural management."Multinational 46 companies have studied everything else,now they're finally looking at culture",says Clifford Clarke,founder and president of the California-based IRI International Inc,one of a small but growing number of consulting firms that specialize in teaching business people from differing cultures how to communi cate and work with each other."Never show the shoe to an Arab,never arrive on time for a party in Brazil,and in Japan,don't think'yes'means'yes',"advise U.S.consultants 48 Lennie Copland and Lewis Brown Griggs,who have produced a series of films and a book to help managers improve their international business skills.But simply learning the social"dos"and"don'ts"is not the answer,according to the new culture specialists.The penalties for ignoring different thinking patterns,they point out,can be disastrous 49.For example,the American manager who promised to be fair thought he was telling his Japanese staff that their hard work would be rewarded,but when some workers received higher salary increases than others,there were complaints."You told us you'd be fair,and you lied to us,"accused one salesman."It took me a year and a half",sighed the American,"to realize that 'fair',to my staff,meant being treated equally."The Asian engineer who suffered in America was the victim of another mistaken expectation."He was accustomed to the warm group environment so typical in Japan,"said his U.S.manager."But in our company,we're all expected to be self-starters,who thrive on working alone.For him,it was emotional starvation.He's made the adjustment now,but he'd humiliated 50 if I told you his name,That's another cultural difference."The Japanese manager who failed to respond to his promotion 51 couldn't bring himself to use the more direct language needed to communicate with his London-based superiors."I used to think all this talk about cultural communication was a lot of baloney,"says Eugene J.Flath,president of Intel Japan Ltd,a subsidiary of the American semiconductor 52 maker,"Now,I can see it's a real problem.Miscommunication has slowed our ability to coordinate 53 action with our have office."That's why Intel,with the help of consultant 47 Clarke,began an intercultural training program this spring which Flath expects will dramatically reduce decision-making time now lost in making sure the Americans and the Japanese understand each other.

[07:18.55]36.The best title for the passage would be"_".  A.Building Bridges over the Cultural Rivers  B.Multinational Training for Businessmen  C.Learning Different Thinking Patterns  D.Communication Problems and Complaints

[06:39.55]71.In the year 2,000,the world is going to have a population of approximately 8 billion.Most scientists agree that the severest problem people then are going to face is producing food.Who is going to feed on all those people?

[06:38.55]72.Where is the food going to come from?Are we going to take enough food?Are we going to produce more artificial foods?

[06:37.55]73.One way of alleviating 77 the situation is for people to eat more meat.Why?Because it takes 4 kilos of grain protein to produce half a kilo of meat protein.

[06:36.55]74.Obvious there is not going to be sufficient meat protein for 8 billion people.

[06:35.55]75.Therefore,it will also be necessary to change eating habits because meat is fundamental part of many people's diet today.
