Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 points for each)从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestion 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Like fingerprints, no two faces are exactly the same. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the characters that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child---even an animal, such as a bird ------ can learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.We also tell two people apart by how they behave. A person’s personality means the ways in which he acts, speaks, thinks and feels that make him different from others.Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing a person’s personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face, if you were asked to describe what a “nice face” looks like, you would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a “nice person”, you might begin to think about someone who is kind, thoughtful, warm, and so on.There are many words that can be used to describe how a person thinks, feels, and acts. Gordon Allport, a U.S. scientist who studies the human mind, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in human behavior. And many of us use these words to describe different types of people ---- bookworms (书呆子), fools, workaholics(工作狂).Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Although April did not bring the rains we all hoped for, and although the Central Valley doesn’t generally experience the atmospheric (大气的) sound and lightning that can accompany those rains, it is still important for parents to be able to answer the youthful questions about thunder and lightning.The reason that these that these two wonders of nature are so difficult for many adults to explain to children is that they are not very well understood by adults themselves. For example, did you know that the lighting we see flashing(闪烁) down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earth? Our eyes cheat us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually the other way round. But then, if we believe only what we think we see, we’d still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night.Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud, and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two clouds or between the earth and a cloud. But, with about 2,000 thunderstorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night, there’s enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on the earth every second.Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them. When children understand that the light of the lightning flashes reaches their eyes almost at the same moment, but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile, they can begin to time the interval between the flash and the crash to learn how close they are to the actual spark.Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The year at an American college is divided into 2 semesters or 3 quarters. Semesters are 15 weeks; quarters are 10 weeks. American college students usually attend school from September to May. They can also study during the summer.Students choose their classes a few weeks before the start of each term. Universities offer a great many classes in the students’ main area of study and in other areas as well. Students must take both. These include science, mathematics, computer, history and English. Other classes may be just for fun, like dance, theater or sports. Tests usually are given in the middle of the term and at the end. The final examinations are extremely important. In some classes, the professor asks the students to write a research paper or complete a certain task instead of taking a test.Classes usually are organized through lectures. For example, a student may attend 2 or 3 lectures a week by the professor. As many as several hundred students sit at each lecture. Sometimes they also attend a smaller class to ask questions and discuss what the professor says. These small classes are taught by professor’s assistants. In science classes, students also have a long laboratory class each week.

Reading Comprehension(30 points,2 points each)从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题纸上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Among the company was a lawyer, a young man of about twenty-five. On being asked his opinion,he said, " Capital punishment and life imprisonment are equally immoral. If I were to make a choice between them, I would rather choose the latter. Anyway, it' s better to live than not to live at all. "A lively discussion followed. A banker, who was then younger and more nervous than the lawyer, suddenly lost his temper and cried out, "It' s a lie. I bet you two millions. You wouldn' t stick in a cell even for five years. ""If you mean it," replied the young lawyer, "I bet I'll stay there longer; make it fifteen instead of five. ""Fifteen! Done !" cried the banker. "Gentleman, I bet you two millions. ""Agreed. Two millions for my freedom," said the lawyer.So this wild, ridiculous bet came to pass. The banker could not hide his excitement. During supper he said to the lawyer jokingly, "Come to your senses, young man, before it's too late. Two millions are nothing to me, but you stand to lose three or four of the best years of your life. I say three or four because you'II never stick it out any longer. Don't forget that voluntary imprisonment is much harder to put up with than an enforced one. The idea that you have the right to free yourself any moment will poison your life in the cell. I pity you. "And now the banker, pacing from corner to corner, recalled all this and asked himself, " Why did I make this bet? What' s the good7 The lawyer lost fifteen years of his life and 1 threw away two millions. Will it convince people that capital punishment is worse or better than imprisonment for life-? No, no ! Rubbish ! On my part, it was the caprice( 心血来潮) of a well-fed millionaire; on the 1awyer' s part, it' s the pure greed of gold. "Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.In a quiet,darkened lecture room,you begin a frustrating fight against fatigue. The overhead projector hums,and you cannot concentrate on the slides. You stop absorbing information and become absent-minded. The professor lost you a long time ago. You are bored.Virtually everyone gets bored once in a while. Most of us chalk it up to a dull environment. " The most common way to define boredom in Western culture is ' having nothing to do,' " says psychologist Stephen Vodanovich of the University of West Florida. And indeed,early research into the effects of boredom focused on people forced to perform dull tasks,such as working a factory assembly line .But boredom is not merely an natural property of the circumstances,researchers say. Rather this perception is subjective and rooted in aspects of consciousness. Levels of boredom vary among people:some individuals are far less liable to boredom than others-and some,such as extroverts(性格外向者) ,are more likely to have this feeling.Thus,a new generation of scientists is coping with the psychological interpretations of this most tedious of human emotions-and they have found that it is more complicated than is commonly known. Researchers say that boredom is not a unifiecl concept but rather comes in several flavors.Level of attention,an aspect of conscious awareness,plays an important role in boredom,such that improving a person' s ability to focus may therefore decrease boredom. Emotional factors can also contribute to boredom. People who are poor in understanding their own feelings and those who become sucked in and distracted by their moods are more easily bored,for example.Staying away from tedium is not easy. People who are liable to boredom are more likely to suffer from ills depression and drug addiction;they also tend to be socially awkward and poor performers at school or work.Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.This green and blue planet spinning in space is under severe stress. If we continue to exploit the planet at the present rate,human and animal life will be threatened. Human pride will be followed by nature' s punishment. To save our earth and ourselves,we need first develop an unbiased understanding of ourselves,nature and life.Everyone understands the meaning of the sentence6*Man should respect animal life and nature". But the exact meaning of man,nature and animal life is not always clear. Many refer to man and animals as if they were essentially different. I consider man to be an animal and only differing in degree and not in kind from other animals. Although I discuss in conventional terms human rights and animal rights as if they were separate,strictly speaking,human rights should be considered a branch of animal rights.The word " nature" is one of the most complex words in the language,but it has developed three main areas of meaning. These are ,first,the essential quality and character of something( as in human nature,or the nature of wood) ; second,the inherent force which influences the world( as in Mother Nature) ; third,the entire world itself. The last can be taken to include or to exclude human be]ngs,as the phrase man and the natural world implies.I consider humans to be an integral part of nature, although they are also the beings most capable of interfering with its processes. Unfortunately a central drive of Western" man" has been to conquer"nature" , as if it were an object separate from him. Hence it has become c.ommon to distinguish between what is natural( existing without man.' s interference) and artificial( man-made). In this way, natural growth is opposed to education, civilization to the natural state. For many urban people living permanently among concrete and glass, nature itself has come to mean little more than the countryside. And this notion of opposition is where the seed of potential destruction lies.
