Part III  Reading Comprehension (30 points)
Directions: There are 6 reading passages 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.
Passage 1
Whether the eyes are "the windows of the soul" is debatable; that they are intensely important in interpersonal communication is a fact. During the first two months of a baby's life, the stimulus that produces a smile is a pair of eyes. The eyes need not be real: a mask with two dots will produce a smile. Significantly, a real human face with eyes covered will not motivate a smile, nor will the sight of only one eye when the face is presented a profile. This attraction to eyes as opposed to the nose or mouth continues as the baby matures. In one study, when American four-year-olds were asked to draw people, 75 percent of them drew people with mouths, but 99 percent of them drew people with eyes. In Japan, however, where babies are carried on their mother's back, infants do not acquire as much attachment to eyes as they do in other cultures. As a result, Japanese adults make little use of the face either to encode or decode meaning. In fact, Argyle reveals that the "proper place to focus one's gaze during a conversation in Japan is on the neck of one's conversation partner."
The role of eye contact in a conversational exchange between two Americans is well defined; speakers make contact with the eyes of their listener for about one second, then glance away as they talk; in a few moments they re-establish eye contact with the listener or reassure themselves that their audience is still attentive, then shift their gaze away once more. Listeners, meanwhile, keep their eyes on the face of the speaker, allowing themselves to glance away one briefly. It is important that they be looking at the speaker at the precise moment when the speaker re-establishes eye contact; if they are not looking, the speaker assumes that they are disinterested and either will pause until eye contact is resumed or will terminate the conversation. Just how critical this eye maneuvering is to the maintenance of conversational flow becomes evident when two speakers are wearing dark glasses; there may be a sort of traffic jam of words caused by interruption, false starts, and unpredictable pauses.
41. The author is convinced that the eyes are ______.    a. of extreme importance in expressing feelings and exchanging ideas    b. something through which one can see a person's inner world    c. of considerable significance in making conversations interesting    d. something the value of which is largely a matter of long debate
42. Babies will not be stimulated to smile by a person ______.    a. whose front view is fully perceived    b. whose face is covered with a mask    c. whose face is seen from the side    d. whose face is free of any covering
43. According to the passage, the Japanese fix their gaze on their conversation partner's neck because ______.    a. they don't like to keep their eyes on the face of the speaker    b. they need not communicate through eye contact    c. they don't think it polite to have eye contact    d. they didn't have much opportunity to communicate through eye contact in babyhood
44. According to the passage, a conversation between two Americans may break down due to ______.    a. one temporarily glancing away from the other    b. eye contact of more than one second    c. improperly-timed ceasing of eye contact    d. constant adjustment of eye contact
45. To keep a conversation flowing smoothly, it is better for the participants ______.    a. not to wear dark spectacles    b. not to make any interruptions    c. not to glance away from each other    d. not to make unpredictable pauses
Passage 2
Imagine eating everything delicious you want—with none of the fat. That would be great, wouldn't it?
New "fake fat" products appeared on store shelves in the United States recently, but not everyone is happy about it. Makers of the products, which contain a compound called olestra, say food manufacturers can now eliminate fat from certain foods. Critics, however, say the new compound can rob the body of essential vitamins and nutrients and can also cause unpleasant side effects in some people. So it's up to consumers to decide whether the new fat-free products taste good enough to keep eating.
Chemists discovered olestra in the late 1960s, when they were searching for a fat that could be digested by infants more easily. Instead of finding the desired fat, the researchers created a fat that can't be digested at all.
Normally, special chemicals in the intestines "grab" molecules of regular fat and break them down so they can be used by the body. A molecule of regular fat is made up of three molecules of substances called fatty acids.
The fatty acids are absorbed by the intestines and bring with them the essential vitamins A, D, E, and K. When fat molecules are present in the intestines with any of those vitamins, the vitamins attach to the molecules and are carried into the bloodstream.
Olestra, which is made from six to eight molecules of fatty acids, is too large for the intestines to absorb. It just slides through the intestines without being broken down. Manufacturers say it's that ability to slide unchanged through the intestines that makes olestra so valuable as a fat substitute. It provides consumers with the taste of regular fat without any bad effects on the body. But critics say olestra can prevent vitamins A, D, E, and K from being absorbed. It can also prevent the absorption of carotenoids, compounds that may reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, etc.
Manufacturers are adding vitamins A, D, E, and K as well as carotenoids to their products now. Even so, some nutritionists are still concerned that people might eat unlimited amounts of food made with the fat substitute without worrying about how many calories they are consuming.
46. We learn from the passage that olestra is a substance that ______.    a. contains plenty of nutrients    b. makes foods fat-free while keeping them delicious    c. renders foods calorie-free while retaining their vitamins    d. makes foods easily digestible
47. The result of the search for an easily digestible fat turned out to be ______.    a. just as anticipated    b. commercially useless    c. quite unexpected    d. somewhat controversial
48. Olestra is different from ordinary fats in that ______.    a. it facilitates the absorption of vitamins by the body    b. it passes through the intestines without being absorbed    c. it helps reduce the incidence of heart disease    d. it prevents excessive intake of vitamins
49. What is a possible negative effect of olestra according to some critics?    a. It may increase the risk of cancer.    b. It may spoil the consumers' appetite.    c. It may impair the digestive system.    d. It may affect the overall fat intake.
50. Why are nutritionists concerned about adding vitamins to olestra?    a. People may be induced to eat more than is necessary.    b. It may trigger a new wave of fake food production.    c. It may lead to the over-consumption of vitamins.    d. The function of the intestines may be weakened.
Passage 3
Cars account for half the oil consumed in the U.S., about half the urban pollution and one fourth the greenhouse gases. They take a similar toll of resources in other industrial nations and in the cities of the developing world. As vehicle use continues to increase in the coming decade, the U.S. and other countries will have to deal with these issues or else face unacceptable economic, health-related and political costs. It is unlikely that oil prices will remain at their current low level or that other nations will accept a large and growing U.S. contribution to global climatic change.
Policymakers and industry have four options: reduce vehicle use, increase the efficiency and reduce the emissions of conventional gasoline-powered vehicles, switch to less harmful fuels, or find less polluting driving systems. The last of these—in particular the introduction of vehicles powered by electricity—is ultimately the only sustainable option. The other alternatives are attractive in theory but in practice are either impractical or offer only marginal improvements. For example, reduced vehicle use could solve traffic problems and a host of social and environmental problems, but evidence from around the world suggests that it is very difficult to make people give up their cars to any significant extent. In the U.S., mass-transit ridership and carpooling have declined since World War II. Even in western Europe, with fuel prices averaging more than $1 a liter (about $4 a gallon) and with easily accessible mass transit and dense populations, cars still account for 80 percent of all passenger travel.
Improved energy efficiency is also appealing, but automotive fuel economy has barely made any progress in 10 years. Alternative fuels such as natural gas, burned in internal-combustion engines, could be introduced at relatively low cost, but they would lead to only marginal reductions in pollution and greenhouse emissions (especially because oil companies are already spending billions of dollars every year to develop less polluting types of gasoline.)
51. From the passage we know that the increased use of cars will ______.    a. consume half of the oil produced in the world    b. have serious consequences for the well-being of all nations    c. widen the gap between the developed and developing countries    d. impose an intolerable economic burden on residents of large cities
52. The U.S. has to deal with the problems arising from vehicle use because ______.    a. most Americans are reluctant to switch to public transportation systems    b. the present level of oil prices is considered unacceptable    c. other countries will protest its increasing greenhouse emissions    d. it should take a lead in conserving natural resources
53. Which of the following is the best solution to the problems mentioned in the passage?    a. The designing of highly efficient car engines.    b. A reduction of vehicle use in cities.    c. The development of electric cars.    d. The use of less polluting fuels.
54. Which of the following is practical but only makes a marginal contribution to solving the problem of greenhouse emissions?    a. The use of fuels other than gasoline.    b. Improved energy efficiency.    c. The introduction of less polluting driving systems.    d. Reducing car use by carpooling.
55. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?    a. The decline of public transportation accounts for increased car use in western Europe.    b. Cars are popular in western Europe even though fuel prices are fairly high.    c. The reduction of vehicle use is the only sustainable option in densely populated western Europe.    d. Western European oil companies cannot sustain the cost of developing new-type fuels.
Passage 4
Taking charge of yourself involves putting to rest some very prevalent myths. At the top of the list is the notion that intelligence is measured by your ability to solve complex problems; to read, write and compute at certain levels; and to resolve abstract equations quickly. This vision of intelligence asserts formal education and bookish excellence as the true measures of self-fulfillment. It encourages a kind of intellectual prejudice that has brought with it some discouraging results. We have come to believe that someone who has more educational merit badges, who is very good at some form of school discipline is "intelligent". Yet mental hospitals are filled with patients who have all of the properly lettered certificates. A truer indicator of intelligence is an effective, happy life lived each day and each present moment of every day.
If you are happy, if you live each moment for everything it's worth, then you are an intelligent person. Problem solving is a useful help to your happiness, but if you know that given your inability to resolve a particular concern you can still choose happiness for yourself, or at a minimum refuse to choose unhappiness, then you are intelligent. You are intelligent because you have the ultimate weapon against the big N.B.D.—Nervous Break Down.
"Intelligent" people do not have N.B.D.'s because they are in charge of themselves. They know how to choose happiness over depression, because they know how to deal with the problems of their lives.
You can begin to think of yourself as truly intelligent on the basis of how you choose to feel in the face of trying circumstances. The life struggles are pretty much the same for each of us. Everyone who is involved with other human beings in any social context has similar difficulties. Disagreements, conflicts and compromises are a part of what it means to be human. Similarly, money, growing old, sickness, deaths, natural disasters and accidents are all events which present problems to virtually all human beings. But some people are able to make it, to avoid immobilizing depression and unhappiness despite such occurrences, while others collapse or have an N.B.D. Those who recognize problems as a human condition and don't measure happiness by an absence of problems are the most intelligent kind of humans we know; also, the most rare.
56. According to the author, the conventional notion of intelligence measured in terms of one's ability to read, write and compute ______.    a. is a widely held but wrong concept    b. will help eliminate intellectual prejudice    c. is the root of all mental distress    d. will contribute to one's self-fulfillment
57. It is implied in the passage that holding a university degree ______.    a. may result in one's inability to solve complex real-life problems    b. does not indicate one's ability to write properly worded documents    c. may make one mentally sick and physically weak    d. does not mean that one is highly intelligent
58. The author thinks that an intelligent person knows ______.    a. how to put up with some very prevalent myths    b. how to find the best way to achieve success in life    c. how to avoid depression and make his life worthwhile    d. how to persuade others to compromise
59. In the last paragraph, the author tells us that ______.    a. difficulties are but part of everyone's life    b. depression and unhappiness are unavoidable in life    c. everybody should learn to avoid trying circumstances    d. good feelings can contribute to eventually academic excellence
60. According to the passage, what kind of people are rare?    a. Those who don't emphasize bookish excellence in their pursuit of happiness.    b. Those who are aware of difficulties in life but know how to avoid unhappiness.    c. Those who measure happiness by an absence of problems but seldom suffer from N.B.D.'s.    d. Those who are able to secure happiness though having to struggle against trying circumstances.
Passage 5
It is hardly necessary for me to cite all the evidence of the depressing state of literacy. These figures from the Department of Education are sufficient: 27 million Americans cannot read at all, and a further 35 million read at a level that is less than sufficient to survive in our society.
But my own worry today is less that of the overwhelming problem of elemental literacy than it is of the slightly more luxurious problem of the decline in the skill even of the middle-class reader, of his unwillingness to afford those spaces of silence, those luxuries of domesticity and time and concentration, that surround the image of the classic act of reading. It has been suggested that almost 80 percent of America's literate, educated teenagers can no longer read without an accompanying noise (music) in the background or a television screen flickering at the corner of their field of perception. We know very little about the brain and how it deals with simultaneous conflicting input, but every common-sense intuition suggests we should be profoundly alarmed. This violation of concentration, silence, solitude goes to the very heart of our notion of literacy; this new form of part-reading, of part-perception against background distraction, renders impossible certain essential acts of apprehension and concentration, let alone that most important tribute any human being can pay to a poem or a piece of prose he or she really loves, which is to learn it by heart. Not by brain, by heart; the expression is vital.
Under these circumstances, the question of what future there is for the arts of reading is a real one. Ahead of us lie technical, psychic, and social transformations probably much more dramatic than those brought about by Gutenberg, the German inventor in printing. The Gutenberg revolution, as we now know it, took a long time; its effects are still being debated. The information revolution will touch every facet of composition, publication, distribution, and reading. No one in the book industry can say with any confidence what will happen to the book as we've known it.
61. The picture of the reading ability of the American people, drawn by the author, is ______.    a. rather bleak    b. fairly bright    c. very impressive    d. quite encouraging
62. The author's biggest concern is ______.    a. elementary school children's disinterest in reading classics    b. the surprisingly low rate of literacy in the U.S.    c. the musical setting American readers require for reading    d. the reading ability and reading behavior of the middle class
63. A major problem with most adolescents who can read is ______.    a. their fondness of music and TV programs    b. their ignorance of various forms of art and literature    c. their lack of attentiveness and basic understanding    d. their inability to focus on conflicting input
64. The author claims that the best way a reader can show admiration for a piece of poetry or prose is ______.    a. to be able to appreciate it and memorize it    b. to analyze its essential features    c. to think it over conscientiously    d. to make a fair appraisal of its artistic value
65. About the future of the arts of reading the author feels ______.    a. upset    b. uncertain    c. alarmed    d. pessimistic
Passage 6
About the time that schools and others quite reasonably became interested in seeing to it that all children, whatever their background, were fairly treated, intelligence testing became unpopular.
Some thought it was unfair to minority children. Through the past few decades such testing has gone out of fashion and many communities have indeed forbidden it.
However, paradoxically, just recently a group of black parents filed a lawsuit in California claiming that the state's ban on IQ testing discriminates against their children by denying them the opportunity to take the test. (They believed, correctly, that IQ tests are a valid method of evaluating children for special education classes.) The judge, therefore, reversed, at least partially, his original decision.
And so the argument goes on and on. Does it benefit or harm children from minority groups to have their intelligence tested? We have always been on the side of permitting, even facilitating, such testing. If a child of any color or group is doing poorly in school it seems to us very important to know whether it is because he or she is of low intelligence, or whether some other factor is the cause.
What school and family can do to improve poor performance is influenced by its cause. It is not discriminative to evaluate either a child's physical condition or his intellectual level.
Unfortunately, intellectual level seems to be a sensitive subject, and what the law allows us to do varies from time to time. The same fluctuation back and forth occurs in areas other than intelligence. Thirty years or so ago, for instance, white families were encouraged to adopt black children. It was considered discriminative not to do so.
And then the style changed and this cross-racial adopting became generally unpopular, and social agencies felt that black children should go to black families only. It is hard to say what are the best procedures. But surely good will on the part of all of us is needed.
As to intelligence, in our opinion, the more we know about any child's intellectual level, the better for the child in question.
66. Why did the intelligence test become unpopular in the past few decades?    a. Its validity was challenged by many communities.    b. It was considered discriminative against minority children.    c. It met with strong opposition from the majority of black parents.    d. It deprived the black children of their rights to a good education.
67. The recent legal action taken by some black parents in California aimed to ______.    a. draw public attention to IQ testing    b. remove the state's ban on intelligence tests    c. put an end to special education    d. have their children enter white schools
68. The author believes that intelligence testing ______.    a. may ease racial confrontation in the United States    b. can encourage black children to keep up with white children    c. may seriously aggravate racial discrimination in the United States    d. can help black parents make decisions about their children's education
69. The author's opinion of child adoption seems to be that ______.    a. no rules whatsoever can be prescribed    b. white families should adopt black children    c. adoption should be based on IQ test results    d. cross-racial adoption is to be advocated
70. Child adoption is mentioned in the passage to show that ______.    a. good will may sometimes complicate racial problems    b. social surroundings are vital to the healthy growth of children    c. intelligence testing also applies to non-academic areas    d. American opinion can shift when it comes to sensitive issues

Graf is no longer an ascending child star, and a rapidly maturing, well-established one, who is endeavoring for the realization that life and tennis from now to only get more complicated. Her vencer(风貌) of invincibility fell out at the French Open when Arantxa Sanchez, 17, upset him, and Graf seemed almost appreciative, embracing the Spaniard afterward. Although she defeated second-ranked Martina Navratilova to defend her Wimbledon title in a difficult three-set match, she alternately giggled and wept.
"you enjoy at even more than you do before," she said. "When you lose a couple of times, it makes you realized how difficult it is. There was times last year when I just didn't know how much I was winning, and how tough it was."
Graf's performance in the last three years has scarcely seemed like a chore, however. She made the finals in 10 straight Grand Slam events, and won six of them. Her massive baseline game, in particularly, the forehand that could fell a tree, has become recognized as the most significant occurrence in tennis since Chris Evert struck a two-handed backhand, and then Navratilova ask her axelike and volleys. The number and ease of her victories are such that she had already said she can't see playing the game much beyond her 20s.

假如你调查美国工人是否赞同他们所在公司的政策，我相信你会发现仅有很少的一部分人回答是肯定的；其余的人则是出于生计而出卖自己的技能，从事一些他们认为有害的工作。此类工作不可能带来真正的满足感。一个人为了做这份工作，就得不断作出妥协，使得自己变得如此愤世嫉俗(cynical)，以至于做其他任何事情也无法获得真正的满足。我不能责备从事这种工作的人，因为他们另一个严峻的选择就是饥饿；我想的是怎样才能既不挨饿又可以从事满足创造欲的工作。从个人是否幸福的观点考虑，如果他选择上述工作，而不选择那些报酬很高而对他来说似乎没有任何意义的工作，他一定是经过深思熟虑的。没有自尊，是不可能有真正的幸福的。而一个对自己的工作感到脸上无光的人，很难获得自尊。
