Directions:Each of the passages below is followed by some questions. For each question there are four answers marked A, B, C and D. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.(每小题2分,共20分)Passage 1:If you asked people today why they used the telephone to communicate with their friends or why they turned to the television for entertainment, they would look at you as if you were crazy. We don't think about a telephone or a television or a car as being rare. These things have become such an essential part of life that they are no longer noticed, let alone remarked upon.In the same way, within a decade no one will notice the World Wide Web. It will just bethere, an essential part of life. It will be a reflex to turn to the Web for shopping, education, entertainment and communication, just as it is natural today to pick up the telephone to talk to someone.There is an enormous interest in the Web. Yet it is still in its infancy (婴儿期). The technology and the speed of response are leaping forward. This will move more and more people to the Web as part of their everyday lives. Eventually, everyone’s business card will have an electronic mail address. Every lawyer, every doctor and every business – from large to small –will be connected.To predict that it will take over ten years for these changes to happen is probably pessimistic. We usually overestimate what we can do in two years and underestimate what we can do in ten. The Web will be as much a way of life as the car by 2008. Probably before.1. What is implied in Paragraph 1?A. Only mad people would ask questions about telephones, TV sets and cars.B. We don't usually ask people why they use the telephone, television and car.C. Today televisions and cars are no longer as important as they used to be.D. In some places, telephones, televisions and cars are still rare things.2. According to the text, in ten years' time the Web will.A. have become part of people’s everyday lifeB. be as cheap as the telephone of todayC. have lost its interest to peopleD. no longer be an infant3. The word “reflex” in Paragr aph 2 probably means.A. automatic, unthinking actB. something one is thinking overC. reflection of other people's opinionD. turning from the source4. Technology for the Web.A. has passed its infancyB. is developing at a very rapid rateC. has naturally moved more people togetherD. is responding to the challenge of the world5. Which of the following statements is NOT true?.A. The development of the Web has just started.B. It will probably take less than ten years for the Web to become common.C. Eventually the Web will be able to link all businesses together.D. We are usually too optimistic when we talk about what we can do in ten yearsC A A B DPassage 2Blind people can “see” things by using other parts of their b odies. This fact may help us to understand our feelings about color. If blind people can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciously.Manufacturers have discovered by experience that sugar sells. Badly in green wrappings, that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and that cosmetics(化妆品) should never be packaged in brown. These discoveries have grown into a branch of color psychology.Color psychology now finds application in everything from fashion to decoration. Some of our preferences are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore associated with calm, while yellow is a day color with associations of energy and incentive(刺激). For a primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw red as the color of blood and anger and the heat that came with effort. And green is associated with passive defense and self-protection.Experiments have shown that colors, partly because of their psychological associations, also have a direct psychological effect. People exposed to bring red show an increase in breath, in heartbeat and in blood pressure; red is exciting. Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming color. Because of its exciting meaning, red is chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm. So fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop the traffic dead.1. Our preferences for certain colors are _______ according to the passage.A. associated with the time of the dayB. dependent on our personalitiesC. are linked with our ancestorsD. partly due to psychological factors2. If people are exposed to bright red, which of the following things does NOT happen?A. They breathe faster.B. They feel satisfied.C. Their blood pressure rises.D. Their hearts beat faster.3. Which of the following statements if NOT true according to the passage?A. Color probably has an effect on us which we are not conscious of.B. Yellow fire engines have caused many bad accidents in some advanced communities.C. People exposed to pure blue start to breathe more slowly.D. The psychology of color is of some practical use.4. Which of the following statements if TRUE according to the passage?A. Manufacturers often sell sugar in green wrapping.B. Dark blue bring people the feeling of being energetic.C. Primitive people associated heat and anger with red.D. Green and yellow are associated with calm and passive defense.5. Which of the following could be the most suitable title for the passage?A. The Branch of Color PsychologyB. Color and Its MeaningsC. The Practical Use of Color PsychologyD. Color and Feelings.A B B C DPassage 3:Human wants seem endless. When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure boats dance into view. The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wantswere satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching” level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction - the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body – this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement, and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical and dental care, and entertainment. Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.On the fourth level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level.A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime. And prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our garages and our fully the good things on the first four levels.1. According to the passage; man will begin to think about such needs as housing and clothing only when _____.A) he has saved up enough moneyB) he has grown dissatisfied with his simple shelterC) he has satisfied his hungerD) he has learned to build houses2. It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World War II most Americans_____.A) were very richB) lived in povertyC) had the good things on the first three levelsD) did not own automobiles3. Which of the following is NOT related to “physical satisfaction”?A) A successful career B) A cozy homeC) A good service D) A family car4. What is the main concern of man on the fourth level?A) The more goods the betterB) The more mental satisfaction the betterC)The more “luxury” items the betterD) The more earnings the better5. The author is inclined to think that a fifth level_____.A) would be little than the fourth levelB) may be a lot more desirable than the firs fourC) can be the last and most satisfying levelD) will become attainable provided the government takes actionsC D A B BPassage Four:Some people hate everything that is modern. They cannot imagine how anyone can really like modern music; they find it hard to accept the new fashions in clothing; they think that all modern painting is ugly; and they seldom have a good word for the new buildings that are being built everywhere in the world. Such people look for perfection in everything, and they take their standards of perfection from the past. They are usually impatient with anyone who is brave enough to experiment with new or to express himself or the age in any original ways. It is, of course, true that many artists do not succeed in their work and instead produce works that can only be considered as failures. If the work of art is a painting, the artist’s failure concerns himself alone, but if it is a building, his failure concerns others too, because it may damage the beauty of the whole place. This does sometimes happen, but it is completely untrue to say, as some people do, that modern architecture is nothing.We can't judge every modern building by the standards of the ancient time, even though we admire the ancient buildings. Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced. The modern architect knows he should learn from the ancient works, but with his greater resources of knowledge and materials, he will never be content to imitate the past. He is too proud to do that. 1. Some people hate everything that is modern becauseA. they are agedB. they find it hard to accept modern thingsC. they take their standards of perfection from the GreekD. they look at things by the standards of the past2. The writer of the passage thinks that.A. it is true to say artists fail in their workB. it is untrue to say artists fail in their workC. it is true to say some artists fail in their workD. it is true to say only painters fail in their work3. The writer thinks the failure of a building.A. means nothingB. concerns othersC. concerns only the artistD. concerns all the people in the world4. The writer thinks that.A. we can't judge buildings by the ancient standardsB. we can't judge all the buildings by the ancient standardsC. we can't judge all the modern buildings by the ancient standardsD. we can't judge modern buildings5. Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced. The sentence means .A. the ancient architects had no technologyB. the modern architects use more advanced technologyC. the modern buildings are advanced because they are completely different from the ancient buildingsD. the modern buildings are more beautifulD C B C BPassage Five:In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue restaurant. then another drive-in. But intheir new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks' sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers' fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches.Today McDonald's is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to orderfifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald's had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its firsttwenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.1. This passage mainly talks abort .A. the development of fast food servicesB. how McDonald's became a billion-dollar businessC. the business careers of Mac and Dick McDonaldD. Ray Kroc's business talent2. Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses except.A. a drive-inB. a cinemaC. a theaterD. a barbecue restaurant3. We may infer from this passage that.A. Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to KrocB. The location the McDonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-inC. Forty years ago there were numerous fast-food restaurantsD. Ray Kroc was a good businessman4. The passage suggests that.A. creativity is an important element of business successB. Ray Kroc was the close partner of the McDonald brothersC. Mac and Dick McDonald became broken after they sold their ideas to Ray KrocD. California is the best place to go into business5. As used in the second sentence of the third paragraph, the word "unique" means .A. specialB. attractiveC. financialD. peculiarB B D A APassage SixFaces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child - or even an animal, such as a pigeon - can learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone' 5 personality, we mean the ways in which he or she acts , speaks , thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone' 5 personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a "nice face" looked like , you probably 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 was kind , considerate , friendly , warm , and so forth.There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon, an American psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people' s behavior.And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types - people are described with such terms.People have always tried to "type" each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains or the heroes. In fact, the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask". Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we can easily tell the "good guys" from the "bad guys" because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.1. The main idea of this passage is_____.A. how to distinguish people' s facesB. how to describe people' s personalityC. how to distinguish people both inward and outwardD. how to differ good persons from bad persons2. Why do actors in early Greek drama wore masks?______.A. To show whether they are good or badB. To play wellC. To act their rolesD. To tell the audience stories3. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Different people may have different personalities.B. People differ from each other in appearance.C. People can learn to recognize faces.D. People can describe all the features of others.4. The reason why it is easier to describe a person' s personality in words than his faceis that________.A. a person' s face is more complex than his personalityB. a person' s personality is easily distinguishedC. people' s personalities are very alikeD. many words are available when people try to describe one' s personality5. We learn from the passage that people classify a person into certain type accordingTo______.A. his way of acting and thinkingB. his way of speaking and behavingC. his learning and behaviorD. his physical appearance and his personalityC AD D DIV.
