Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Direction: There are 4 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 with a single line through the center.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Passage One
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Navigation computers, now sold by most car-makers, cost $2,000 and up. No surprise, then, that they are most often found in luxury cars, like Lexus, BMW and Audi. But it is a developing technology - meaning prices should eventually drop - and the market does seem to be growing.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Even at current prices, a navigation computer is impressive. It can guide you from point to point in most major cities with precise turn-by-turn directions - spoken by a clear human- sounding voice, and written on a screen in front of the driver.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
The computer works with an antenna (天线) that takes signals from no fewer than three of the 24 global positioning system (GPS) satellites. By measuring the time required for a signal to travel between the satellites and the antenna, the car’s location can be pinned down within 100 meters.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
The satellite signals, along with inputs on speed from a wheel-speed sensor and direction from a meter, determine the car’s position even as it moves. This information is combined with a map database. Streets, landmarks and points of interest are included.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Most systems are basically identical. The differences come in hardware - the way the computer accepts the driver’s request for directions and the way it presents the driving instructions. On most systems, a driver enters a desired address, motorway junction or point of interest via a touch screen or disc. But the Lexus screen goes a step further: you can point to any spot on the map screen and get directions to it.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
BMW’s system offers a set of cross hairs (瞄准器上的十字纹) that can be moved across the map (you have several choices of map scale) to pick a point you’d like to get to. Audi’s screen can be switched to TV reception.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Even the voices that recite the directions can differ, with better systems like BMW’s and Lexus’s having a wider vocabulary. The instructions are available in French, German, Spanish, Dutch and Italian, as well as English. The driver can also choose parameters for determining the route: fastest, shortest or no freeways (高速公路), for example.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
21. We learn from the passage that navigation computers ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) will greatly promote sales of automobiles

湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Passage Two
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
“The word’s environment is surprisingly healthy. Discuss.” If that were an examination topic, most students would tear it apart, offering a long list of complaints: from local smog (烟雾) to global climate change, from the felling (砍伐) of forests to the extinction of species. The list would largely be accurate, the concern legitimate. Yet the students who should be given the highest marks would actually be those who agreed with the statement. The surprise is how good things are, not how bad.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
After all, the world’s population has more than tripled during this century, and world output has risen hugely, so you would expect the earth itself to have been affected. Indeed, if people lived, consumed and produced things in the same way as they did in 1900 (or 1950, or indeed 1980), the world by now would be a pretty disgusting place: smelly, dirty, toxic and dangerous.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
But they don’t. The reasons why they don’t, and why the environment has not been ruined, have to do with prices, technological innovation, social change and government regulation in response to popular pressure. That is why today’s environmental problems in the poor countries ought, in principle, to be solvable.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Raw materials have not run out, and show no sign of doing so. Logically, one day they must: the planet is a finite place. Yet it is also very big, and man is very ingenious. What has happened is that every time a material seems to be running short, the price has risen and, in response, people have looked for new sources of supply, tried to find ways to use less of the material, or looked for a new substitute. For this reason prices for energy and for minerals have fallen in real terms during the century. The same is true for food. Prices fluctuate, in response to harvests, natural disasters and political instability; and when they rise, it takes some time before new sources of supply become available. But they always do, assisted by new farming and crop technology. The long- term trend has been downwards.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
It is where prices and markets do not operate properly that this benign (良性的) trend begins to stumble, and the genuine problems arise. Markets cannot always keep the environment healthy. If no one owns the resource concerned, no one has an interest in conserving it or fostering it: fish is the best example of this.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
26. According to the author, most students ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) believe the world’s environment is in an undesirable condition
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) agree that the environment of the world is not as bad as it is thought to be
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) get high marks for their good knowledge of the world’s environment
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) appear somewhat unconcerned about the state of the world’s environment
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
27. The huge increase in world production and population ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) has made the world a worse place to live in
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) has had a positive influence on the environment
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) has not significantly affected the environment
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) has made the world a dangerous place to live in
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
28. One of the reasons why the long-term trend of prices has been downwards is that ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) technological innovation can promote social stability
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) political instability will cause consumption to drop
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) new farming and crop technology can lead to overproduction
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) new sources are always becoming available

湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) they are not owned by any particular entity
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com

湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
30. The primary solution to environmental problems is ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) to allow market forces to operate properly
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) to curb consumption of natural resources
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) to limit the growth of the world population
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) to avoid fluctuations in prices
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Passage Three
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
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.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Some thought it was unfair to minority children. Through the past few decades such testing has gone out of fashion andmany communities have indeed forbidden it.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
However, paradoxically, just recently a group of black parents filed a lawsuit (诉讼) 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.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
And so the argument goes on and on. Does it benefit or harm children from inority 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.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
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.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
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.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
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.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
As to intelligence, in our opinion, the more we know about any child’s intellectual level, the better for the child in question. 31. Why did the intelligence test become unpopular in the past few decades?
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) Its validity was challenged by many communities.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) It was considered discriminative against minority children.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) It met with strong opposition from the majority of black parents.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) It deprived the black children of their rights to a good education.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
32. The recent legal action taken by some black parents in California aimed to ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) draw public attention to IQ testing
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) put an end to special education
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) remove the state’s ban on intelligence tests
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) have their children enter white schools
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
33. The author believes that intelligence testing ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) may ease racial confrontation in the United States
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) can encourage black children to keep up with white children
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) may seriously aggravate racial discrimination in the United States
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) can help black parents make decisions abut their children’s education

34. The author’s opinion of child adoption seems to be that ________.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) no rules whatsoever can be prescribed

B) white families should adopt black children
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) adoption should be based on IQ test results
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) cross-racial adoption is to be advocated
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com

湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
A) good will may sometimes complicate racial problems
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
B) social surroundings are vital to the healthy growth of children
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
C) intelligence testing also applies to non-academic areas
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
D) American opinion can shift when it comes to sensitive issues
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Passage Four
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Not too many decades ago it seemed “obvious” both to the general public and to sociologists that modern society has changed people’s natural relations, loosened their responsibilities to kin (亲戚) and neighbors, and substituted in their place superficial relationships with passing acquaintances. However, in recent years a growing body of research has revealed that the “obvious” is not true. It seems that if you are a city resident, you typically know a smaller proportion of your neighbors than you do if you are a resident of a smaller community. But, for the most part, this fact has few significant consequences. It does not necessarily follow that if you know few of your neighbors you will know no one else.
湖南校园网 www.sunnyol.com
Even in very large cities, people maintain close social ties within small, private social worlds. Indeed, the number and quality of meaningful relationships do not differ between more and less urban people. Small-town residents are more involved with kin than are big-city residents. yet city dwellers compensate by developing friendships with people who share similar interests and activates. Urbanism may produce a different style of life, but the quality of life does not differ between town and city. Nor are residents of large communities any likelier to display psychological symptoms of stress or alienation, a feeling of not belonging, than are residents of smaller communities. However, city dwellers do worry more about crime, and this leads them to a distrust of strangers.
