The chances of success are perhaps even less.No law of causality (因果关系) exists to insist that in choosing a travel companion you will lose a friend. But it's not unlikely. The odds depend on the length and the rigorousness (严密) of the trip. Some friendships have a strength that will withstand even travel; others are by nature short-lived and travel merely hastens their dissolution (结束，终止).Perhaps I should make it clear that in discussing this matter of travel companions I am confining myself to Platonic (柏拉图式的) friendships. Intimate friends may well be the best companions of all. Compromises and concessions from such companions clearly spring from a recognized emotional base that colors every issue. I'll confine myself, then, to companions, male and female, who are sharing a trip solely for company. Why bother at all with a travel companion? Why not travel alone, shiftily (机智地) pursuing one's goal? Some of the answers are obvious. A pleasant fellow traveler eases the stress and tensions, adds to the delights and rewards and pays half the bills. However, a bad-tempered companion quite often brings you to the point where you devoutly (虔诚地) wish you were alone.Finding that suitable companion is something of an art and something of a gamble. But the choice should be determined by one important rule: travelers should be going on the trip with the same idea in mind. They should hold in common a theory of travel.1.Choosing a travel companion is hard and risky, because________.A. one may lose a friendB. one may suffer financial lossesC. one may be trapped in the dangerous situationD. one may miss the chance of finding the right marriagepartner2.When intimate friends travel together, ________.A. the trip will hasten their dissolutionB. the trip will make them closer to each otherC. they will find the right ways to solve problems due to theirrelationshipD. they will make more friends on trip3.It can be inferred from the passage that the companion talkedabout here is the person ________.A. one can think of developing a deeper relationship withB. one can travel with merely for companyC. one can count on for a free travelD. one can learn much from4.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Choosing a travel companion won't lead to the loss of friends.B. Friendships cannot withstand the test of any trip.C. A travel companion is badly needed if one wants to take a trip.D. Like-minded people should travel together.5.Which of the following is the best title for this passage?A. Travel and Marriage-Two Similar ExperiencesB. Finding a Good Travel Companion-a Risky MatterC. Will Travel Damage the Friendship?D. Should One Travel Alone or in Another's Company?Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage. Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness. In the interval he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and there are few things of which he stands in more fear than of the absence of noise. Even his conversation is in great measure a desperate attempt to prevent a dreadful (可怕的) silence. He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing (发出嗡嗡声) of a fly, but he longs to join the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure. The object of conversation is not, for the most part, to communicate ideas. It is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are, it must be admitted, different qualities of buzz: there is even a buzz that is as exasperating (使人恼怒的) as the continuous ping (砰声) of a mosquito. But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a mute (哑巴). Most buzzing, fortunately, is agreeable to the ear, and some of it is agreeable even to the mind. He would be a foolish man, however, who waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.Those who despise (看不起) the weather as a conversational opening seem to me to be ignorant of the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they aremerely allowed to go on making a noise into other people's ears, though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they have had food in a Swiss hotel. At the end of an evening during which they have said nothing at immense length, they are proud of themselves on their success as conversationalists.6.The significance of man's speaking ability is that ________.A. it proves his existence as a manB. it raises his position as a manC. it makes him enjoy meaningful conversationsD. it gets him out of trouble7.The statement that "ninety-nine percent of human conversationmeans no more than the buzzing of a fly" suggests that________.A. most of the human conversations are inspiring andinstructiveB. most of the human conversations are as irritating as thenoise made by a flyC. most of the human conversations can be dismissed asmeaninglessD. most of the human conversations can be regarded as theeffective activities8.According to the passage, a man will look silly if he ________.A. makes mistakes in the conversationB. feels reluctant to join in the conversationC. fails to communicate anything new to others in theconversationD. misunderstands others' meanings in the conversation9.In the author's opinion, the introduction of weather as aconversational opening indicates ________.A. the ignorance of the conversationalistB. the start of an acceptable conversationC. the coming of something newD. the boring nature of the conversation10. Which of the following statements is true, according to thepassage?A. At a dinner party, everyone prefers to talk like a mosquito.B. People despise meaningless conversations.C. People take pride in their roles as conversationalists.D. One can always learn something useful from conversation.Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(每小题: 3 分; 满分：30 分)小题得分对错我的答案客观1. 3 A A2. 3 C C3. 3 B B4. 3 D D5. 3 B B6. 3 A A7. 3 C C8. 3 B B9. 3 B B10. 3 C CSubtotal: 30 老师评语：Total score: 92正确率：92%。
