PART III Reading Comprehension
There are two passages in this part, each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are 4 choices marked a), b), c), d). you should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
A moment’s drilling by the dentists may make us nervous
and upset. Many of us cannot stand pain. To avoid the pain of a drilling that may last perhaps a minute or two. We demand the “needle”that deadens the nerves around the tooth.
Now it’s true the human body has developed millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the world. Without our nerves-and our brain,which is a bundle of nerves--- we wouldn’t know what’s happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any
part of our body. The history of torture is based on the human body being open to pain.
But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian Fakir who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.
The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude towards it. If the dentist says, “this will hurt a little”, it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation, we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still
a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.
1.The purpose of this passage is mainly to tell us (c )
a)that pain is good for us
b)to stop taking the “needle” at the dentist’s.
c)how to handle pain.
d)How to avoid torture.
2.The result of pain is to (b)
a)let us know what’s going on.
b)Make us open to torture.
c)Make us pay for our sensitivity.
d)Help us get more sensations.
3.The most important thing in handling pain is to (d)
a)do what the Indian Fakirs do.
b)Welcome it
c)Know about it in advance.
d)Treat it as an interesting sensation
4. In the first sentence of the last paragraph, the word
“withstanding”probably mean s (c )
a)accepting b)avoiding c)handling d)curing
5. “we pay for our sensitivity .” (paragraph 2) this means (b)
a)it was fortunate for humans to have developed this sensitivity.
b)We suffer because of this sensitivity
c)We know very well how to cope with sensations of pain
d)We have to pay the dentist for his treatment of our teeth. Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
Of all the animals in the animal kingdom, which one (aside from man) is smartest? There are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals. In one test a scientist sets three identical cans on a table. While the animal watches, he puts food under one of the cans. Then he leads the
animal away. Some time later, he brings it back to see is it remembers which can has the food. No sniffing is allowed;the animal must go directly to the correct can or it fails.
This is called a delayed-response test. The idea is to find out how long an animal’s memory can retain information. The scientists would try showing the cans to the animal one hour later, or two hours later, or even a full day later. They discovered that
chimpanzees and elephants have the best memory, and are able to remember the correct can for at least twenty hours. No other animal is close. Dogs came next, but they only remembered for nine hours.
To settle the matter, the scientists devised a gigantic maze and ran the chimps and elephants through it. The maze was very complicated, with many blind alleys and dead ends. It took the chimps ten minutes to find their way out. The elephants needed a half hour. Even allowing for the elephants’ slower rate of speed, the test indicates that chimpanzees are the smartest animals.
From this and other tests, the scientists drew the following conclusion: an animal’s intellige nce de pends on the size of its brain in proportion to the size of its body. The elephant’s brain weights ten pounds. But this is only 1/600th of its 6000 pound body. A chimp’s brain weighs about one pound, or 1/120th of its total body weight. So in proportion to its body size, the chimp has five times as much brain as the elephant----more brain for less body. The chimp is the champ.
6.Select the best title. (d)
a)the elephant’s memory
b)judging intelligence
c)the chimp’s brain
d)the smartest animal
7. The main idea of this passage is that (c )
a)there are several ways of measuring the intelligence of animals.
b)Chimps and elephants have the best memory.
c)Intelligence tests show that the chimp is the smartest animal
d)The scientists devised a gigantic maze and ran the chimps and
elephants through it
8. The delayed-response test is designed to test an animal’s
(d)
a)eyesight b)intelligence c)learning ability d)memory
9. The passage indicates that elephants (c )
a)never forget b)are smarter than chimps
c)are slower-moving than chimps
e)have better memories than chimps
10. According to the passage, a rhinoceros that weighs 2100 pounds and has a 3 pound brain is (c )
a)equal in intelligence to a chimp
b)more intelligent than an elephant
c)less intelligent than an elephant
d)equal in intelligence to an elephant
