A good modern newspaper is an
e_traordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first what it contains: the
range of news from local crime (犯罪)
to international politics, from sports to business to fashion to science, and
the range(范围)of comment and special features(特写)as well, from editorial page to feature
articles, from interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre, and music. A
newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and
out,
glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the ne_t. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to
attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested
in. what brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性), its immediate relation to what is
happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of
production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper
has no more than transient(短暂的)value.
For all these reasons, not two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’ s paper, his own
selection and sequence (顺序),
his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently which means
getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self- awareness(意识)
as you modify(改变)and apply the techniques of
reading.
55. A modern newspaper is remarkable for all the following e_cept
its________.
A. wide coverage
B. uniform style
C. speed in reporting news
D. popularity

D. people have different views about what a good newspaper is
57. It can he concluded from the passage that newspaper readers________.
A. apply reading techniques skillfully
B. jump from one newspaper to another
C. appreciate the variety of a newspaper
D. usually read a newspaper selectively(有选择性地)
58. A good newspaper offers 〝a variety〞 to readers because________.
A. it tries to serve different readers
B. it has to cover things that happen in
a certain locality

In bringing up
children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition (学会) of each new skill- the first spoken words,
the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is
often tempting(诱惑)to hurry the child beyond his
natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and
states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be
forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to
read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning
opportunities(机会), he loses his natural enthusiasm(热情)for life and his desire to find out new
things for himself.
Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some
may he especially strict in money matter, others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality(及时)for
meals. In general, the controls imposed(施加的)represent(代表)the needs of the parents and the values of
the community as much as the child’s own happiness.
As regards the development of
moral standards in the growing child, consistency(一致性)is very important in parental teaching. To
forbid a thing one day and e_cuse it the ne_t is no foundation for morality(道德). Also, parents should realize that e_ample
is better than percept (认知)〞.
If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教), their children may grow confused and
emotionally insecure(不确定)when they grow old enough to
think for themselves, and realize they have
been to some e_tent fooled.
A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’principles and
their morals can he a dangerous disappointment.
60. Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills________.
A. should be avoided
B. is universal(普遍的)among
parents
C. sets up dangerous states of worry in the child
D. will make him lose interest in learning new things
61. In the process of children’ s learning new skills parents________.
A. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they
read
B. should e_pect much of them
C. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on
their own.
D. should create as many learning opportunities as possible.
62. The second paragraph mainly tells us that________.
A. parents should be strict with their children
B. parental controls reflect only the needs of the partents and the values of
the community
C. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for benefit of the
children alone
D. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the
situation
63. In moral matters, parents should________.
A. observe the rules themselves
B. be aware of the marked difference between adults and children
C. forbid things which have no foundation in morality
D. consistently ensure
the security of their children

The report came to the
British on May 21,1941. The German battleship Bismarck, the most powerful warship in the world, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean. Her task: to
destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to war- torn English.
The British had feared such a task. No warship they had could match the Bismarck in speed or in firepower. The Bismarck had eight 15 - inch guns and 81
smaller guns. She could move at 30 nautical(航海的)miles
an hour. She was believed to be unsinkable.
However, the British had to sink her. They sent our a task force headed by
their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck. On My 24, the Hood found
the Bismarck.
It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see. His
orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies, but to
stay away from a fight with British warships.
The battle didn’t last long. The Bismarck’s first torpedo(鱼雷)hit the Hood, which went town taking all but
three of her 1,419 men with her.
But in the fight, the Bismarck was
slightly damaged. Her commander decided to run for repairs to France, which had
at that time been taken by the Germans. The British force followed her. However, because of the Bismarck’ s speed and the heavy fog, they lost
sight of
her.
For two days, every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck, but with no success. Finally, she was sighted by a plane from Ireland. Trying
to slow the Bismarck down so that their ships could catch up with her, the British fired at her from the air. The Bismarck was hit.
On the morning of May 27, the last battle was fought. Four British ships fired
on the Bismarck, and she was finally sunk.
64. The Bismarck sailed into the Atlantic Ocean________.
A. to sink the Hood
B. to gain control of France

Germany

67. Which of the following is the immediate cause of the sinking of the Bismarck?

Social change is more likely
to occur in societies where there is a mi_ture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for
this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the
first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest,
and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition(此外), there is usually a greater worldly
interest and greater tolerance(容忍)in
mi_ed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in
many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity(机会)for change because everything
seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are
at least customary and undisputed(明白的).
Within a society,
social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the
material aspects(方面)of the culture than in the non-
material, for e_ample, in technology rather than in values; in what has been
learned later in life rather than what was learned early, in the less basic and
less emotional aspects of society rather than in their opposites; in the simple
elements rather than in the comple_(复杂的)
ones; form rather than in substance(物质);and
in elements(元素)that are acceptable to the
culture rather than in strange elements.
Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For e_ample, it comes
more readily in human relations on a continuous scale(规模)rather than one with sharp dichotomies(一分成). This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts.
68. The passage is mainly discussing________.
A. two different societies
B. the necessity of social change
C. certain factors that determine the ease(容易)with
which social changes occur
D. certain factors that promote social change________.
69. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?
A. Social change tends to meet with more difficulty in basic and emotional aspects of society.
B. Disagreement with and argument about conditions tends to slow down social
change.
C. Social change is more likely to occur in the material aspect of society.
D. Social change is less likely to occur in what people learned when they were
young.
70. Social change is less likely to occur in a society where people are quite
similar in many ways because________.
A. people there have got so accustomed(习惯于)
to their conditions that they seldom think it necessary to change
B. people there have identical needs that can be satisfied without much difficulty
C. people there are easy to please
D. people there are less disputatious(好争辩的)
