Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are two reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You will decide on the best choice.Passage 1On February 3rd, 1949, New York Harbor was an exciting place. Many people were there to greet a ship from France. On the ship were 49 French railroad boxcars filled with gifts from the people of France to the people of America. These boxcars were from the famous Merci Train （Merci: a French word meaning “thank you”）.After World War II, a lot of factories, roads and farms in France had been destroyed. Many French people had no jobs or money and had little to wear and little to eat. In the winter of 1947, a train was sent across the United States, stopping in cities and towns along the way.At every stop, people gave whatever they could.Factories gave clothing and medicine. Farmers gave food. Families gave money.Even school children gave away their pocket money.All the things were then taken to France by ship.By 1949, the French had begun to recover from the war.The Merci Train was their way of saying “thank you” to America. French people had filled the boxcars with gifts.Most of themwere personal, like hand - made toys, children’s drawings, or postcards.But the boxcars themselves were perhaps the most meaningful of the gifts.On each car, the French people had painted the pictures of all their 40 provinces with an American eagle on the front. The boxcars were taken to each state of America, where they were warmly greeted.Now many of the states still keep their boxcars.Gifts sent by the French people can still be seen in some museums. The Merci Train came out of the war, but it now reminds the world that countries can also work together in peace.1.Many people crowded at New York Harbor on February 3rd, 1949 to _________.A. welcome the Merci TrainB. meet their familiesC. have a big partyD. start a trip by ship2.In 1947, a train stopped in cities across America in order to _________.A. give away clothing and foodB. get more soldiers for the warC. collect things to help French peopleD. show exhibitions from the museums3.The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refers to _________.A. the American peopleB. the French peopleC. the boxcarsD. the gifts4.The French people painted their 40 provinces and an American eagle on each boxcarbecause_________.A. they thought France was stronger than AmericaB. it could show the friendship between the two countriesC. the boxcars would be more beautifulD. they were very good at painting pictures5.The passage is mainly about _________.A. the story of the Merci TrainB. American museums where the boxcars keptC. gifts that American people likedD. World War II1.A2.C3.D4.B5.APassage 2①The Dream It is everyone’s dream to work at home or not work at all. You can plan your own hours and work when you want to. There is no more rush hour and no hours that people waste when they get to and from a job every day.②The Fact The fact is that this dream can be attained.

How is the passage organized ?A. By using famous people’s wor ds.B. By giving reasons only.C. By showing a topic and giving solutionsD. By telling old stories6.D7.B8.B9.A 10.CPassage 3As a child, I was really afraid of the dark and of getting lost. These fears were very real and caused me some uncomfortable moments.Maybe it was the strange way things looked and sounded in my own room at night that scared me so much. There was never complete darkness, but always a streetlight or passing car lights, which made clothes on the back of a chair take on the shape of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no wind. A very low sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the day. My imagination would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would lie very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, especially on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home. That was no problem. After school, though, when all the buses were lined up along the street, I was afraid that I would get in the wrong one and be taken to some other strange places. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t let the leaders out of my sight.Perhaps one of the worst fears of all I had as a child was that of not being liked or accepted by others. Being popular was so important to me then, and the fear of not being liked was a serious one.One of the processes growing up is being able to realize and overcome our fears. Understanding the things that scared us as children helps us achieve greater success later in life.11. The author had _________kind(s) of fears when she was a child.A. oneB. twoC. threeD. none12. _________ would scare the author at night.A. Streetlight and car lightsB. Wild animals and enemiesC. Moving curtains and windD. Strange sights and sounds13.

Which of the following would be possibly true when she was a child?A. She was usually popular among people.B. She was always the leader of the others.C. She always’ got poor grade s.D. She was not at all liked by others.15. The underlined word “overcome” means “_________” in Chinese.A. 接受B. 忍受C. 信服D. 克服11.C 12.D 13.C 14.A 15.DPassage 4The weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school.A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.16. Many people like drinking energy drinks because of the following EXCEPT that ________.A. they have beautiful colors and cool namesB. they have lots of caffeineC. they can keep them awake and better at sportsD. they are said to be helpful to health17. The main reason for people not to drink too much energy drinks is that they may cause _____.A. heart problemsB. nervousnessC. sleeping difficultyD. possible health dangers18.

From the passage we can know that _________.A. advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB. energy drinks are helpful to teenagers’ studyC. sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD. energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers20. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A. What’s the Use of Energy Drinks?B. Who Can Drink Energy DrinksC. What’s that in Energy Drinks?D.

Each passage is followed by 5 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1The phrase almost completes itself: midlife crisis. It’s the stage in the middle of the journey when people feel youth vanishing, their prospects narrowing and death approaching.There’s only one problem with the cliche (套话).It isn’t true.“In fact, there is almost no hard evidence for midlife crisis other than a few small pilot studies conducted decades ago,”Barbara Hagerty writes in her new book, Life Reimagined. The vast bulk of the research shows that there may be a pause, or a shifting of gears in the 40s or 50s, but this shift “can be exciting, rather than terrifying”.Barbara Hagerty looks at some of the features of people who turn midlife into a rebirth. They break routines, because “autopilot is death”. They choose purpose over happiness一having a clear sense of purpose even reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. They give priority to relationships, as careers often recede(逐渐淡化).Life Reimagined paints a picture of middle age that is far from gloomy. Midlife seems like the second big phase of decision-making. Your identity has been formed; you’ve built up your resources; and now you have the chance to take the big risks precisely because your foundation is already secure.Karl Barth described midlife precisely this way. At middle age, he wrote, “the sowing is behind; now is the time to reap. The run has been taken; now is the time to leap. Preparation has been made; now is the time for the venture of the work itself.”The middle-aged person, Barth continued, can see death in the distance, but moves with a “measured haste”to get big new things done while there is still time.What Barth wrote decades ago is even truer today. People are healthy and energetic longer. We have presidential candidates running for their first term in office at age 68, 69 and 74. A longer lifespan ischanging the narrative structure of life itself. What could have been considered the beginning of a descent is now a potential turning point—the turning point you are most equipped to take full advantage of.1.What does the author think of the phrase “midlife crisis”？A) It has led to a lot of debate. B) It is widely acknowledged.C) It is no longer fashionable. D) It misrepresents real life.2.How does Barbara Hagerty view midlife?A) It may be the beginning of a crisis.B) It can be a new phase of one’s life.C) It can be terrifying for the unprepared.D)It may see old-age diseases approaching.3.How is midlife pictured in the book Life Reimagined?A) It can be quite rose.B) It can be burdensome.C) It undergoes radical transformation.D) It makes for the best part of one’s life.4.According to Karl Barth, midlife is the time_______.A) to relax B) to matureC) to harvest D) to reflect5.What does the author say about midlife today?A) It is more meaningful than other stages of life.B) It is likely to change the narrative of one’s life,C) It is more important to those with a longer lifespan.D)It is likely to be a critical turning point in one’s life.Passage 2In spring, chickens start laying again, bringing a welcome source of protein at winter’s end. So it’s no surprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.Some traditions are simple, like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads. Others elevate the egg into a fancy art, like the heavily jewel-covered “eggs”that were favored by the Russians starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art comes to us from Ukraine. For centuries, Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs. Contemporary artists have followed this tradition to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age: Life is precious, and delicate. Eggs are, too.“There’s something about their delicate nature that appeals to me,”says New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast. Several years ago, she became interested in eggs and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modem characters. “I’ve broken eggs at every stage of the process—from the very beginning to the very, very end.”But there’s an appeal in that vulnerability. “There’s part of this sickening horror of knowing you’re walking on the edge with this, that I kind of like, knowing that it could all fall apart at any second.”Chast’s designs, such as a worried man alone in a tiny rowboat, reflect that delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears. The elaborate patterns were believed to offer protection against evil.“There’s an ancient legend that as long as these eggs are made, evil will not prevail in the world,”says Joan Brander, a Canadian egg-painter who has been painting eggs for over 60 years, having learned the art from her Ukrainian relatives.The tradition, dating back to 300 B.C., was later incorporated into the Christian church. The old symbols, however, still endure. A decorated egg with a bird on it, given to a young married couple, is a wish for children. A decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.6.Why do people in many cultures prize the egg?A) It is a welcome sign of the coming of spring.B) It is their major source of protein in winter.C) It can easily be made into a work of art.D) It can bring wealth and honor to them.7.What do we learn about the decorated “eggs”in Russia?A) They are shaped like jewel cases.B) They are cherished by the rich.C) They are heavily painted in red.D) They are favored as a form of art.8.Why have contemporary artists continued the egg art tradition?A) Eggs serve as an enduring symbol of new life.B) Eggs have an oval shape appealing to artists.C) Eggs reflect the anxieties of people today.D) Eggs provide a unique surface to paint on.9.Why does Chast enjoy the process of decorating eggs?A) She never knows if the egg will break before the design is completed.B) She can add multiple details to the design to communicate her idea.C) She always derives great pleasure from designing something new.D) She is never sure what the final design will look like until the end.10.What do we learn from the passage about egg-painting?A) It originated in the eastern part of Europe.B) It has a history of over two thousand years.C) It is the most time-honored form of fancy art.D) It is especially favored as a church decoration.Passage 3The Urbanization —migration away from the suburbs to the city center —will be the biggest real estate trend in 2015, according to a new report.The report says America’s urbanization will continue to be the most significant issue affecting the industry, as cities across the country imitate the walkability and transit-oriented development makingcities like New York and San Francisco so successful.As smaller cities copy the model of these “24-hour cities，’’tfiore affordable versions of these places will be created. The report refers to this as the coming of the “18-hour city，”，and uses the term to refer to cities like Houston, Austin, Charlotte, and Nashville, which are “positioning themselves as highly competitive, in terms of livability, employment offerings, and recreational and cultural facilities.”Another trend that looks significant in 2015 is that America’s largest population group, Millennials (千禧一代)，will continue to put off buying a house. Apartments will retain their appeal for a while for Millennials, haunted by what happened to home-owning parents.This trend will continue into the 2020s, the report projects. After that, survey respondents disagree over whether this generation will follow in their parents，footsteps, moving to the suburbs to raise families, or will choose to remain in the city center.Another issue affecting real estate in the coming year will be America’s failing infrastructure. Most roads, bridges, transit, water systems, the electric grid, and communications networks were installed 50 to 100 years ago, and they are largely taken for granted until they fail.The report’s writers state that America’s failure to invest in infrastructure impacts not only the health of the real-estate market, but also our ability to remain globally competitive.Apart from the specific trends highlighted above, which cause some investors to worry, the report portrays an overall optimism borne by the recent healthy real-estate “upcycle”and improving economy. Seventy-four percent of the respondents surveyed report a “good to excellent”expectation of real-estate profitability in 2015. While excessive optimism can promote bad investment patterns, resulting in a real- estate “bubble,”the report’s writers downplay that potential outcome in that it has not yet occurred.11. According to the new report, real estate development in 2015 will witness_______ .A) an accelerating speedB) a shift to city centersC) a new focus on small citiesD) an ever-increasing demand12. What characterizes “24-hour cities”like New York?A) People can live without private cars.B) People are generally more competitive.C) People can enjoy services around the clock.D) People are in harmony with the environment.13. Why are Millennials reluctant to buy a house?A) They can only afford small apartments.B) The house prices are currently too high.C) Their parents' bad experience still haunts them.D) They feel attached to the suburban environment.14. What might hinder real estate development in the U.S.?A) The continuing economic recession in the country.B) The lack of confidence on the part of investors.C) The fierce global competition.D) The worsening infrastructure.15. How do most of the respondents in the survey feel about the U.S. real-estate market in 2015?A) Pessimistic. B) Hopeful.C) Cautious. D) Uncertain.Part II: Vocabulary and Structure（2*10=20）Directions: In this part there are 10 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C andD.(20%)Passage 1As we have seen, the focus of medical care in oursociety has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease– especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors, such as poor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thoughtinvolved in this shift can be pursued further. Imaginea person who is about the right weight, but does not eat very nutritious( 有营养的)foods,who feels OK but exercises only occasionally,who goes to work every day, but is not an outstanding worker,who drinks a few beersat home most nights but does not drive while drunk,and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, butsleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is notill.He maynot even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someonewho is merely“ not ill”and someonewho is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs. Both types have simply been called “well ”. In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to apply the terms“well ” and “wellness ” only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are wellare concerned with nutrition and exercise and they make a point of monitoring their body’s condition.Most important,perhaps,people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺陷) may be "well," in this new sense, if they make aneffort to maintain the best possible health they can inthe face of their physical limitations. "Wellness" mayperhaps best be viewed not as a state that peoplecan achieve, but as an ideal that people can strive for.People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And byfocusing attention on healthy ways of living,the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways inwhich people face the challenges of daily life.1.Today medical care is placing more stress on ________.A. keeping people in a healthy physical conditionB. monitoring patients’ body functionsC. removing people ’s bad living habitsD. ensuring people ’s psychological well-being2.In the first paragraph,people are reminded that ________.A. good health is more than not being illB. drinking, even if not to excess, could be harmfulC. regular health checks are essential to keeping fitD.prevention is more difficult than cure3.Traditionally, a person is considered "well" if he________.A.does not have any unhealthy living habitsB.does not have any physical handicapsC.is able to handle his daily routinesD.is free from any kind of disease4.According to the author, the true meaning of "wellness" is forpeople ________.A. to best satisfy their body’s special needsB. to strive to maintain the best possible healthC.to meet the strictest standards of bodily healthD. to keep a proper balance between work and leisure5. According to what the author advocates, which of thefollowing groups of people would be considered healthy?A. People who have strong muscles as well as slim figures.B. People who are not presently experiencing anysymptoms of disease.C. People who try to be as possible, regardlessof their limitations.D. People who can recover from illness evenwithout seeking medical care.Passage 2Throughout this long, tense election, everyone has focused on the presidential candidates and how they ’ll change America. Rightly so, but selfishly, I’m more fascinated by Michelle Obama and what she might be ableto do,not just for this country,but for me as an African-American woman.As the potential First Lady, she would have the world’s attention. And that means thatfor the first time people will have a chance to get upclose and personal with the type of African-Americanwoman they so rarely see.Usually,the lives of black women go largely unexamined. The prevailing theory seems to b e that we’re all hot-tempered single mothers who can’t keep a man. Even in the world of make-believe, black women stillcan’ t escape the stereotype of being eye-rolling, oversexed females raised by our never-married,alcoholic ( 酗酒的 ) mothers.These images have helped define the way all womenare viewed, including Michelle Obama. Before she ever getsthe chance to commit to a cause, charity or foundationas First Lady,her most urgent and perhaps most complicated duty may be simple to be herself.It won’t be easy.Because few mainstream publications have done in-depth features on regular African-American women,little is known about whowe are, what we think and what we face on a regular basis. Forbetter or worse, Michelle will represent us all.Just as she will have her critics,she will also have millions of fans who usually have little interest in the First Lady. Many African-American blogs have writtenabout what they ’d like to see Michelle bring to the WhiteHouse—mainly showing the world that a black woman can support her manand raise a strong black family. Michelle will have to work to please everyone —an impossible task. But for many African-American women like me,just a little of her poise( 沉着 ), confidence and intelligence will go a lon g way in changing an image that’s been around for far too long.6. Whydoes Michelle Obamahold a strong fascination forthe author?A)She serves as a role model for African women.B)She possesses many admirable qualities becominga First Lady.C)She will present to the world a new image of African-American women.D)She will pay closer attention to the interests of7.What is the common stereotype of African-American women according to the author?A)They are victims of violence.B)They are of an inferior violence.C)They use quite a lot of body language.D)They live on charity and social welfare.8.What do many African-Americans write about intheir blogs?A)Whether Michelle can live up to the highexpectations of her fans.B)How Michelle should behave as a public figure.C)H ow proud they are to have a black woman in theWhite House.D) What Michelle should do as wife and mother in theWhite House.9.What does the author say about Michelle Obama asa First Lady?A)However many fans she has, she shouldremain modest,B)She shouldn ’t disappoint the African-Americancommunity.C) However hard she tries, she can’ t expect toplease everybody.D) She will give priority to African-Americanwomen’s concerns.10.What do many African-American women hopeMichelle Obama will do?A) Help change the prevailing view about black women.B)Help her husband in the task of changing America.C)Outshine previous First Lady.D)Fully display her fine qualities.VI. Fill in each blank of the passage with ONE suitable word. (10%)More than one million children in the United Statesdo not go to school.1,they learn at home. They are 2 by adults, like tutors (家庭教师 ).Most often, their parents are their cational companies, libraries, and the Internet3__many families withteaching material.Parents choose home-schooling for several reasons.Some choose it because of their religious __4 .

Computer technology helped the researchers to get most exact measurements of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which have something to do with intellect and feelings, and decide the human character. As we all know, the back part of the brain, which controls task like eating and breathing, does not contract with age.Contraction of front and side parts—as cells die off—was seen in some people in their thirties, but it was still not found in some sixty and seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to prevent the contraction—using the head.The findings show that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. “Those with least possibility,” says Matsuzawa, “are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing the same work day after day in government offices are, however, as possible to have contracting brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.”26. The team of doctors wanted to find out _____.A. at what point people grow mentally oldB. how to make people live longerC. the size of certain people’s brainsD. which people are the most clever27. Their research findings are based on _____.A. an examination of farmers in northern JapanB. tests given on a thousand old peopleC. examining the brain volumes of different peopleD. using computer technology28. The doctors’ tests show that _____.A. our brains contract as we grow olderB. one part of the brain does not contractC. sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-oldsD. some people’s brains have contracted earlier than other people’s29. The most possible conclusion of the passage is that _____.A. most of us take more exerciseB. it’s better to live in the townC. the brain contracts if it is not usedD. the more one uses his brain, the sooner he becomes old30、从事国际贸易意味着承担更多的市场风险。

When the other boys were playing with balls, little Bentley was studying things like drops of water, flowers and snowflakes. Bentley loved watching snowflakes. For the next two years young Bentley spent many winterdays in a cold room watching these ice crystals(晶体) under his microscope. The boy thought they were so beautiful that he started to draw pictures of them. But there were so many snowflakes that he couldn't draw them all. How could he keep their beauty forever? Bentley thought of buying a camera. The boy and his mother asked his father to buy one. But, his father didn't agree. He thought the whole thing was a bad idea. He thought the only thing a farmer should do was farming.But finally Bentley did get a camera, For more than a year he tried to take pictures of snowflakes. On January 15, 1885, during a snowstorm, Bentley took the first ever photo of an ice crystal with his camera.“ It was the greatest moment of my life,” Bentley said later.

Overhead bridges are used in very much the same way as zebra crossings. They are more efficient although less convenient because people have to climb up a long flight ofsteps. This is inconvenient especially to older people. When pedestrians use an overhead bridge, they do not hold up traffic.However, when they cross a busy road using a zebra crossing, traffic is held up. This is why the government has built many overhead bridges to help pedestrians and to keep traffic moving at the same time.The government of Singapore has spent large sums of money building these bridges. For their own safety pedestrians should be encouraged to use them instead of risking their lives by dashing across the road. Old people, however, may find it a little difficult climbing up and down the steps, but it is still much safer than walking across the road with all the danger of moving traffic.Overhead bridges serve a very useful purpose. Pedestrians, both old and young, should make it a habit to use them. This will prevent unnecessary accidents and loss of life.6. What is the advantage of overhead bridges mentioned in this passage?A. Taller vehicle can pass under them.B. Pedestrians can climb up and have a view of the city.C. They don’t hold up traffic and are safer for pedestrians.D. They are easier and more convenient for the pedestrians.7. Why were overhead bridges built in Singapore by its government?A. Because they do not hold up traffic.B. Because they provide an easy way for the drivers to cross the road.C. Because they save money for the government.D. Because they save time for the pedestrians.8. Which of the following is true according to this passage?A. Overhead bridges are found in places where traffic is heavy.B. Overhead bridges are found in every part of Singapore.C. Overhead bridges are found in many parts of the big cities in the world.D. Overhead bridges are only found in the capital Singapore.9. The expression “zebra crossings” in paragraph 2 means ____________.A. a safe place where pedestrians use to walk across a roadB. a big animal covered with alternating black and white stripes in AfricaC. a safe place where zebras walk aroundD. a safe place across a road for children to play a game10. What is the writer’s attitude towards overhea d bridges?A. It is inconvenient to older people to walk across the road.B. It is much safer though a little difficult climbing up and down the steps for pedestrians.C. Overhead bridges are more beautiful than zebra crossingsD. To build overhead bridges is the order of the government.Passage ThreeCars are an important part of life in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. An even if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor when he has a car.Henry Ford wa s the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn’t know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the Unite States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. First of all, the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the mostcomfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developedan efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays, there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really m ade cars popular. Americans do n’t like to wait for a bus or a train or even a plane. They don’t like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas.11. When do most Americans feel they are poor?A. When they don’t have a car.B. When they live in a huge country.C. When they don’t use planes.D. When they have a car.12. Why do cars become popular in the United States?A. The United States is huge.B. Public transportation is not so good.C. Americans like to be independent.D. Americans like to move around.13. What public transportation is good in the United States?A. Buses.B. Trains.C. Taxis.D.

本科《综合英语》期末考试试卷及答案
《综合英语》考试试卷(A卷、闭卷)Part I Reading Comprehension (阅读理解）（每小题3分，共15分) Passage OneSuppose we built a robot to explore the planet Mars. We provide the robot with seeing detectors to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times？ No。
The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to cease its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.According to the evolutionary theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason。
The theory does not deny that sleep provides some important restorative functions。
It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However，sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us。
