Eachpassage is followed bysome 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.IGreek mythology is largely made up of stories about gods and goddesses, but it must not be read as a kind of Greek Bible, an account of the Greek religion.According to the most modern idea, a real myth has nothing to do with religion. It is an explanation of something in nature; how, for instance, any and everything in the universe came into existence: men, animals, this or that tree or flower, the sun, the moon, the stars, storms, eruption, earthquakes, all that is and all that happens. Thunder and lightning are caused when Zeus hurls his thunderbolt. A volcano erupts because a terrible creature is imprisoned in the mountain and every now and then struggles to get free. The Dipper, the constellation called also the Great Bear, does not set below the horizon because a goddess once was angry at it and decreed that it should never sink into the sea. Myths are early science, the result of men?s first trying to explain what they saw around them.But there are many so-called myths which explain nothing at all. These tales are pure entertainment, the sort of thing people would tell each other on a long winter?s evening. The story of Pygmalion and Galatea is an example; it has no conceivable connection with any event in nature. Neither has the Quest of the Golden Fleece, nor Orpheus and Eurydice, nor many another. This fact is now generally accepted; and we do not have to try to find in every mythological heroine the moon or the dawn and in everyhero?s life a sun myth. The stories are early literature as well as e arly science. But religion is there, too. In the background, to be sure, but nevertheless plain to see. From Homer through the tragedians and even later, there is a deepening realization of what human beings need and what they must have in their gods.11. The author believes that myths _____.A.have nothing to do with religionB.contain very modern ideas.C.are pure entertainment with no religious contentD.have to do with science, religion and entertainment12. In every myth, ____.A.there is a connection with some natural eventB.there is not necessarily an attempt to explain an event in natureC.there are angry gods and goddessesD.there exists some religious teaching13. According to the passage, the story of Pymalion and Galatea ______.A.has something to do with the explanation of natureB.is pure entertainmentC.has something to do with scienceD.is closely related to religion14. Myths are early science because they_______.A.explain the natural eventsB.teach about the historyC.have nothing to do with religionD.reflect people?s expectations15. The author, in regard to modern ideas on myth_____.A.is impressed and agrees with themB.refuses to accept any of themC.adds to them new points of viewD.none of the aboveIIResearchers have established that when people are mentally engaged, biochemical changes occur in the brain that allow it to act more effectively in cognitive areas such as attention and memory. This is true regardless of age.People will be alert and receptive if they are faced with information that gets them to think about things they are interested in. And someone with a history of doing more rather than less will go into old age more cognitively sound than someone who has nothad an active mind.Many experts are so convinced of the benefits of challenging the brain that they are putting the theory to work in their own lives. “The idea is not necessarily to learn to memorize enormous amounts of information,” says James Fozard, associate director of the National Institute on Aging. “Most of us don?t need that kind of skill. Such specific training is of less interest than being able to maintain mental alertness.” Fzard and others say they challenge their brains with different mental skills, both because they enjoy them and because they are sure that their range of activities will help the way their brains work.Gene Cohen, acting director of the same institute, suggests that people in their old age should engage in mentally and physical activities individually as well as in groups. Cohen says that we are frequently advised to keep physically active as we age, but older people need to keep mentally active as well. Those who do are more likely to maintain their intellectual abilities and to be generally happier and better adjusted. “The point is, you needto do both,” Cohen says, “Intellectual activity actually influences brain-cell health and size.”16. People who are cognitively healthy are those_____.A.who can remember large amounts of informationB.who are highly intelligentC.whose minds are alert and receptiveD.who are good at recognizing different sounds17. According to Fozard?s argument, people can make theirb rains work moreefficiently by_____.A.constantly doing memory workB.taking part in various mental activitiesC.going through specific trainingD.making frequent adjustments18. The findings of James and other scientists in their work_____.A.remain a theory to be further provedB.have been challenged by many other expertsC.have been generally acceptedD.are practiced by the researchers themselves19. Older people are generally advised to_____.A.keep fit by going in for physical activitiesB.keep mentally active by challenging their brainsC.maintain mental alertness through specific trainingD.maintain a balance between individual and group activities20. This passage is mainly about_____.A.how biochemical changes occur in the human brainB.why people should keep active not only physically but also mentallyC.how intellectual activities influence brain-cell healthD.why people should receive special mental training as they ageIIIEducation achievement is a vital measure of any society?s level of development. In modern times, universal literacy for all social groups has become the goal of all nations, and education has been recognized as a right of both women and men. Apart from the absolute benefits that education brings to women, women?s education benefits society. Studies has shown that women?s education is closely related to children?s health outcomes (结果)and other social development indicators. Education and training increase women?s opportunities in the modern economic sector by better qualifying them for well-paid employment. Education also expands women?s life choices beyond marriage and child-raising.Arab countries have made great advances in improving literacy rate in the past two decades for both men and women. However, women still remain behind men. In most countries the urban-rural contrast in female literacy is still great, creating an increasing gap of development opportunities for women within the same country.Overall, the difference between male and female literacy rates is greater inlower-income countries, which suggests that when resources are scarce male educationtakes precedence(领先) over female education. The lower social value of girls? education causes high dropout rates among those who come from poor families. Girls may also be removed from school to care for the younger or to be married at a young age. But a problem facing women and men alike is that thecontent of education is often unrelated to the needs of the labor market---so much so that some rural families prefer not to send their children to school, where they will lose useful agricultural skills and emerge with unmarketable knowledge.21. According to the passage, the education of women is important because_____.A.it represents the development of the societyB.it will benefit the societyC.women can enjoy their legal rightD.it shows women and men are equal22. With the information given in the passage, the following statements are true EXCEPT_______.A.women will be qualified for well-paid jobsB.the economic position will be changedC.women will be too busy to get married and give birth to a childD.the scope of life for women will be expended with better education23. Difference in education between male and female exits because of_____.A. ageB. raceC. regionD. wealth24. Some families in the countryside are reluctant to send their children to schoolbecause_____.A.they cannot afford the children?s schoolingB.girl?s education is regarded as of less importantC.the school education cannot meet the requirement of thesocietyD.they thought it was enough to stay at home with their present agricultural skill25. In the first paragraph, education achievement refers to_____.A.women?s educationB.the education of both men and womenC.the education of children in the countrysideD.the education of women in poor countriesIVWhat is exactly a lie? Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you, you say: “I wish I could help you but I?m short of money myself.? In fact, you are not short of money, but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you don?t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this really a lie?A scientific study of lying shows women are better liars than men, particularly when telling a …white lie? such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks terrible.However, this is only one side of the story. Other researches show that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or gain in some way.Research has also been done into the w ay people?s behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the same time, they tend to move about in their chairs more thanusual. To the trained observer they are saying …I wish I were somewhere else now.?26. This passage tells us that_____.A.telling lies is often necessary in order to avoid being defeatedB.telling lies is often bad because people ought not to be dishonestC.telling lies is sometimes n ecessary in order not to hurt someone else?s feelingsD.telling lies is not bad at all in most cases27. In paragraph 2, the sentence “…women are better liars than men.” Probably means “_____”.A.Women are better at telling lies than menB.Women liars are better accepted than menC.Women have a better intention when telling liesD.Women tell fewer lies than men do28. A …white lie? means_____.A. a lie that is completely unbelievableB. a lie that is told with a good willC. a lie that is always believableD. a lie that often has an evil purpose29. Politicians and businessmen are supposed to be skilled at telling the kind oflies _____.A.from which they may gain some advantagesB.that seems to be believableC.that women are most likely to believeD.with which they can have better relationship with others30. It can be concluded from the passage that_____.A.there is a simple way of finding out if someone is lyingB.from some ways people behave we can know they are lyingC.certain emotions are proof of lyingD.in some situations women are most likely to think businessmen are dishonest Part III Vocabulary and Structure (35 points)Directions: there are thirty-five incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with as single line through the center.31. The engine____ smoke and steam.A. gives upB. gives inC. gives awayD. gives off32.

These large orange and black insects(昆虫) brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers. What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate(迁飞)——all the way to California or Mexico and back. They are thought to be the only insect that does this.Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south. Those heading for Mexico go first for the Louisiana-Mississippi area, then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas. Once in Mexico, they settle themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees. Each place provides a winter home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees. When spring comes, they begin their long journey north.The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year. And the answer is no. The average monarch lives about nine months. So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then die. The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky; the eggs of the next generation may end up in Wisconsin or Michigan. The last generation of the season, about the fourth, will make their way back to Mexico and restart the journey.Scientists learn about monarchs’ migration by catching the making marks on the insects. By recatching a monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from, the next scientist can get to know get to know things like the butterfly’s age and its routing(路线).56. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is ____.A. the Gulf of MexicoB. an area in MississippiC. a forest in MexicoD. a plain in Texas57. The routing of monarchs’ migration can be learned ____.A. by examining the marks made on themB. by collecting their eggs in the mountainsC. by comparing their different agesD. by counting the dead ones in the forests58. What is the subject discussed in the passage?A. Migration of monarchs.B. Scientists’ interest in monarchs.C. Winter home of monarchs.D. Life and death of monarchs.BSYDNEY: As they sat sharing sweets beside a swimming pool in 1999, Shane Gould and Jessicah Schipper were simply getting along well, chatting about sport, life and “anything else that came up.”Yet in Sydney next month, they will meet again by the pool, and for a short time the friends will race against each other in the 50-meter butterfly(蝶泳) in the Australian championships at Homebush Bay.Gould, now a 47-year-old mother of four, has announced she will be making a return to elite competition(顶级赛事) to swim the one event, having set a qualifying(合格的) time of 30.32 seconds in winning gold at last year’s United States Masters championships. Her comeback comes 32 years after she won three golds at the Munich Olympics.Schipper, now a 17-year-old from Brisbane with a bright future of going to Athens for her first Olympics, yesterday recalled(回忆) her time with Gould five years ago.“I was at a national youth camp on the Gold Coast and Shane had come along to talk to us and watch us train,”Schipper explained. “It seemed as if we had long been good friends. I don’t know why. We just started talking and it went from there.”“She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp. She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what it’s like to be on an Australian team. It was really interesting.”Next time, things will be more serious. “I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals, so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Shane Gould,” said Schipper, who burst onto the scene at last year’s national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterfly.59. What is the passage mainly about?A. Stories happening in swimming competitions.B. Two women swimmers winning Olympic golds.C. Lessons learned from international swimming championships.D. Friendship and competition between two swimmers.60. Gould and Schipper are going to ____.A. talk about sport and lifeB. go back to elite competitionC. set a qualifying time and win goldD. take part in the same sports event61. Gould won her three Olympic golds when she was ____.A. 15B. 17C. 22D. 3062. The underlined word “it” in the fifth paragraph probably refers to ____.A. the OlympicsB. the youth campC. the friendshipD. the Australian team63. What Schipper said showed that she ____.A. was no longer Gould’s friendB. had learned a lot from GouldC. was not interested in Gould’s storiesD. would not like to compete against GouldCWith a good shopping position and the right amount(数量) of money, any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop. It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop. But the hours of work are very long——I was only doing a part-time job, but my boss put in a seventy-hour week, besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life, however, is that while I was in it I lost my love of books. A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books, and that gives him a dislike for them. There was a time when I really did love books——loved the sight and smell and feel of them——if they were fifty or more years old, that is. Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds. There is a peculiar flavour(独特的味道) about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection: little-known eighteenth-century poets, or out-of-date geography books. For occasional(偶尔的) reading——in your bath, for example, or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed——there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book.But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books. Seen in a mass, five or ten thousand at a time, books were dull and even a little tiresome. Nowadays I do buy one occasionally, but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow, and I never buy rubbish.64. According to the passage, ____ is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.A. an educated shop-ownerB. a good position at a street cornerC. a regular journey out of the shopD. the force of large chain-stores65. The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because____.A. he hated his job of selling booksB. selling books was only a part-time jobC. the books in the shop gave him a dislikeD. he was unable to be honest about the books he sold66. The books preferred by the author should be those ____.A. stories making readers sleeplessB. valuable ones bought on saleC. peculiar ones with great expectationD. geography ones from the eighteenth century67. The author will only buy new books ____.A. if he feels dull and tiredB. after he gives up his job as a booksellerC. which are interesting but hard to borrowD. when he throws away old onesDMillions of aircraft take off around the world every year. The skies they fly in seem limitless——miles of empty space. But, with the number of flights increasing each year, this emptiness no longer exists. Researchers in the world of aviation(航空) are worried about the increasing pressure on pilots and ground controllers. And increasing collisions, occurring at or near an airport, have called attention to the need for more aids(辅助设备) to aviation control.People who travel the skies are not certain about air safety. A great deal of money is spent on new and bigger aircraft and airports to deal with the vast increase in passengers travelling by air. Only a small percentage of this money is spent on navigation(导航) and other aids. Actually, suitable electronic equipment has long existed, and many companies market safety aids designed to make it safer for aircraft to take off, fly any distance, and land, whatever the weather. Yet, there are two problems to be solved. The first is to get governments, airlines and airport officials to agree to basic levels of safety aids. The second problem is to find a way of meeting these basic requirements.But no matter how well the equipment works, operators of the equipment still play an important role. Communications between pilots and ground controllers are extremely important to air safety. It is worth pointing out that the mishearing or misunderstanding of instructions in English, and the use of another language, in an international conversation, have led to two recent aircraft accidents. A new type of instrument(仪器) called FLIGHTWATCH would help pilots prevent airport collisions. It would be particularly helpful near airports.68. The increasing number of flights leads to the fact that ____.A. flying is no longer limited in the skyB. there is no empty space for aids to aviation controlC. piloting and controlling planes is getting more difficultD. the pressure on the ground becomes greater69. There is uncertainty about air safety because ____.A. planes become bigger for the increasing number of passengersB. money spent on electronic equipment is far from enoughC. suitable electronic equipment hasn’t been invented yetD. it is dangerous for planes to take off or land70. The underlined word “collisions” probably means ____.A. accidents in which two planes hit each otherB. misunderstandings between pilots and ground controllersC. quarrels among passengersD. breakdowns of new types of instrument71. It can be inferred from the passage that ____.A. governments and officials have paid great attention to air safetyB. there should be more companies to sell new safety aidsC. English should be used in an international conversationD. understanding between pilots and ground controllers should be improvedEArt museums are places where people can learn about various cultures(文化). The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center ofthe hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales——it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled(困惑). This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous(幽默的) part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.72. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they ____.A. show more technologically advance productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do73. The author believes that most design museum visitors ____.A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well74. The choices open to design museums ____.A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed to interest the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits75. The best title for this passage is ____.A. The forms of design museumsB. The exhibits of design museumsC. The nature of design museumsD. The choices open to design museums短文改错I still remember my middle school life in Tianjin yet. I was then 76. ____________in a school for students from Tibet.

13 学位英语：2004年阅读理解分析

请同学们自己先动手做，再听课，不断总结提高！2004年真题Many parents give lunch money to their teenagers instead of a box lunch. The teenagers will often spend that money for a fast food lunch of hot dogs or hamburgers instead of in the school cafeteria.They are strongly influenced by what their friends do, and even though you've filled Them with good eating habits since early childhood, they cast them off in favor of eating junk food if that is what the others eat.Unfortunately, hot dog and French fry eaters tend to be malnourished (营养不良) especially if they don't eat fruits and vegetables at lunch time.Fast foods are high in calories, high in fats and high in sodium, and Vitamins A, C and E, calcium and iron are very low or missing from fast foods. Fast foods are considered "junk foods" if they have too many calories , fried and too few nutrients.Teenage girls are among the most poorly nourished group m Canadian society, because they are often dieting to stay slim. They seldom think of achieving this end by increasing their daily exercises. Very few of them are regularly involved in sports, and they are generally more inactive than boys. They tend to skip meals, but when they are with friends, they enjoy themselves at .junk foods that provide them with little of the nutrients they require.Fighting with your teenage daughter, or son, usually doesn't help. Teenagers are resistant and seek independence from their parents. So telling your teenagers that fast foods are bad for them might be of some help.16. A cafeteria isA. a restaurant where people can serve themselvesB. a coffee shop where people can have a cup of coffeeC. a tea shop where people can have a cup of teaD. a bar where people can have drinks17. Nowadays teenagers tend to have a fast food lunch becauseA. they are influenced by each otherB. they are given lunch moneyC. fast foods are usually friedD. fast foods are nutritious18. If teenage girls want to stay slim, they shouldA. be involved in sports irregularlyB. increase their daily exercisesC. eat fast foodsD. skip meals19. People regard fast foods as "junk foods" because of the following EXCEPT ThatA. they are usually friedB. they have too many caloriesC. they have too few nutrientsD. they have enough vitamins20. What do you expect in the next paragraph after this passage.'?A. Giving some nutrition advice to parents.B. Explaining some disadvantages of eating fast foods.C. Introducing some advantages of eating fast foods.D. Criticizing parents for giving their children lunch money.An occasional drink with dinner could reduce the risk of having a stroke (中风) according to a new study. Researchers found that light to moderate drinkers can lower their risk by about 20 percent compared with non-drinkers.The study was the biggest ever to examine the link between alcohol and stroke. It showed that as little as a single glass of wine or beer per week can significantly reduce stroke risk. The study involved more than 22,000 men, but the researchers said the results could also apply to women.However, the researchers stressed it would be unwise for doctors to advise patients who don't drink to suddenly start or those who drink small amounts to begin consuming more heavily. The study found no added protection from stroke by drinking more than lightly or moderately.And researchers warned of possible harms posed by alcohol, such as liver damage, the dangers of driving while drunk and the risk of breast cancer in women.What's more, there are other ways to reduce stroke risk, such as quitting smoking or lowering blood pressure.Numerous studies have shown that modest drinking reduces the risk of heart disease. But until now, the evidence of an effect on strokes has been less convincing. Early studies were criticized because they simply compared drinkers to non-drinkers. This latest studyexamined varying levels of alcohol intake. It found that between one drink a week and one a day reduces the risk, and the lesser amount was about as good as the higher one.21. The study was the biggest ever becauseA. it has been published latelyB. it involved more than 22,000 menC. it provided some advice to doctorsD. the results could also apply to women22. Which of the following ways is NOT mentioned in the passage to reduce stroke risk?A. Giving up smoking.B. Lowering blood pressure.C. Drinking lightly and occasionally.D. Taking medicine on time.23. Alcohol does the following harm EXCEPTA. resulting in liver damageB. causing traffic accidentsC. lowering blood pressureD. increasing the risk of breast cancer24. The study is considered more successful because itA. compared drinkers to non-drinkersB. tested light drinkersC. looked into heavy drinkersD. examined varying levels of alcohol intake25. The purpose of the study isA. to look at the link between alcohol and strokeB. to advise non-drinkers to make a startC. to encourage light drinkers to become heavy drinkersD. to promote the sale of alcoholMany of the most damaging and life-threatening types of weather, such as torrential rains and severe thunderstorms, begin quickly, strike suddenly, and disappear rapidly, destroying small regions while leaving neighboring areas untouched. Conventional computer models of the atmosphere have limited value in predicting short-lived local storms I:.ecause the available weather data are generally not detailed enough to allowcomputers to see clearly the small atmospheric changes that come before these storms. In most nations, for example, weather balloon observations are taken just once every twelve hours at locations typically separated by hundreds of miles. With such limited data, conventional forecasting models do a much better job predicting general weather conditions over large regions than they do forecasting specific local events.Until recently, the observation-intensive approach needed for accurate, very short-range forecasts, or “Nowcasts” was impracticable. The cost of equipping and operating many thousands of conventional weather stations was extremely high, and the difficulties involved in rapidly collecting and processing the raw weather data from such a network were beyond overcoming. Fortunately, scientific and technological advances have overcome most of these problems. Radar systems, automated weather instruments, and satellites are all capable of making detailed, nearly continuous observations over large regions at a relatively low cost. Communication satellites can transmit data around the world cheaply and immediately, and modern computers can quickly compile and analyze this large volume of weather information. Meteorologists (气象学家) and computer scientists now work together to design computer programs and video equipment capable of transforming raw weather data into words, symbols, and vivid graphic displays that forecasters can interpret easily and quickly. As meteorologists have begun using these new technologies in weather forecasting offices, nowcasting is becoming a reality.26. What is the best title of the passage?A. Severe Thunderstorms and Damages.B. Weather Forecasting and Life-threatening Damages.C. Science Advances and Nowcasts.D. Available Data and Nowcasts.27. Nowcasts areA. local forecastsB. short-range forecastsC. medium-range forecastsD. long-range forecasts28. Nowcasts used to be impracticable becauseA. there were no conventional computersB. the cost of the equipping and operating was sky highC. there were no difficulties in data processingD. there were not enough meteorologists29. Things have been changed by the following EXCEPTA. the use of radar systems and automated instrumentsB. the use of communication satellites and modern computersC. the joint work of meteorologists and computer scientistsD. weather information volume is large enough to compile and analyze30. The dream of Nowcasts will come true whenA. the cost is loweredB. people need it to reduce damagesC. meteorologists can make full use of the new technologiesD. conventional weather forecasts are got rid ofBack in the 1870s, Charles Daiwin's cousin Francis Galton wanted to define the face of a criminal. He assembled a set of samples by lining them up on a single photographic plate. The surprise is that everybody liked the villain (反面人物), including Galton himself. He reasoned that the villainous irregularities he supposed belonged to criminal faces had disappeared in the averaging process. In the next century, scientists began to show reliably that faces combine digitally on computers were likable------more than the individual' faces from which they were composed. Although people clearly admire the long legs of Brazilian model Ana Hickmann or Dolly Parton's breasts, in general humans like averages.Last week researchers confirmed that humans judge real faces by their differences or similarities from a norm. But they also found that the norm can change quickly. When researchers showed 164 people, a set of 100 computer generated faces representing a slow transition from male to female--and from Japanese to Spanish--it turned out that the test subjects' idea of what constituted an "average" face shifted depending on the first face they saw. When they were flashed a super-masculine face,' first, more faces on the spectrum impressed them, by contrast, as female. The masculine faces had, in effect, set a standard. From then on, other faces had to be more masculine in order to rate as belonging to the gender. The study noted a similar shift using a scale of faces moving fromsurprise to disgust.The authors of the study, who published their results, last week in the journal Nature, conclude that in real life we also quickly change our perception of the midpoint--what's normal--depending on what we see. We may not be aware that our judgment has changed; we simply see differently, says Michael Webster, a psychologist at the University of Nevada in Rena.31. Which of the following can best describe the main idea of Paragraph 1?A. The way to define the face of a criminal.B. Most people admire the long legs of Ana Hickmann or Dolly Parton's breasts.C. Darwin's cousin F. Ualton was the first person who began to define faces.D. The relation between the face of the villain and the faces of averages.32. The word which is similar in meaning to "norm" in Paragraph 2 isA. averageB. genderC. transitionD. scale33. Which of the following can be an essential factor for people to choose a face he or she likes?A. The whole spectrum of faces.B. The shifting of faces.C. Their differences or similarities from a norm.D. The flashing of the super-masculine face.34、the sentence in paragraph 2 “from then on , other faces had to be more masculine in order to rate as belonging to the gende r” can best meanA、from that face on, more masculine faces have to be shownB、from that masculine faces on, other faces are to be shown with more and more striking masculine featuresC、from the time of setting the standard, other faces had to be more and more masculineD、from the shining of the super-masculine face, other faces should be masculine in gender35、in the last paragraph, the writer of the passage implies thatA、there is no standard in defining a face at allB、people’s judgment of faces is actually subconsciousC、people’s judgment of a face may be different with the trend changeD、different people may like different faces in different societies2004年阅读理解真题Many parents give lunch money to their teenagers instead of a box lunch.

These large orange and black insects（昆虫）brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers. What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate（迁飞）—all the way to California or Mexico and back. They are thought to be the only insect that does this.Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south. Those heading for Mexico go first for the Louisiana-Mississippi area, then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas. Once in Mexico, they settle themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees. Each place provides a winter home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees. When spring comes, they begin their long journey north.The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year. And the answer is no. The average monarch lives about nine months. So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then die. The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky; the eggs of the next generation may end up in Wisconsin or Michigan. The last generation of the season, about the fourth, will make their way back to Mexico and restart the journey.Scientists learn about monarchs’ migration by catching and making marks on the insects. By re-catching a monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from, the next scientist can get to know things like the butterfly’s age and its routing（路线）.56. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is______.A. the Gulf of MexicoB. an area in MississippiC. a forest in MexicoD. a plain in Texas57. The routing of monarchs’ migration can be learned______.A. by examining the marks made on themB. by collecting their eggs in the mountainsC. by comparing their different agesD. by counting the dead ones in the forests58. What is the subject discussed in the passage?A. Migration of monarchs.B. Scientists’ interest in monarchs.C. Winter home of monarchs.D. Life and death of monarchs.BSYDNEY：As they sat sharing sweets beside a swimming pool in 1999，Shane Gould and Jessicah Schipper were simply getting along well, chatting about sport, life and “anything else that came up.”Yet in Sydney next month, they will meet again by the pool, and for a short time the friends will race against each other in the 50-meter butterfly（蝶泳）in the Australian championships at Homebush Bay.Gould, now a 47-year-old mother of four, has announced she will be making a return to elite competition（顶级赛事）to swim the one event, having set a qualifying（合格的）time of 30.32 seconds in winning gold at last year’s United States Masters championships. Her comeback comes 32 years after she won three golds at the Munich Olympics.Schipper, now a 17-year-old from Brisbane with a bright future of going to Athens for her first Olympics, yesterday recalled（回忆）her time with Gould five years ago.“I was at a national youth camp on the Gold Coast and Shane had come along to talk to us and watch us train,” Schipper explained. “It seemed as if we had long been good friends. I don’t know why. We just started talking and it went from there.”“She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp. She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what it’s like to be on an Australian team. It was really interesting.”Next time, things will be more serious.“ I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals, so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Sha ne Gould,”saidSchipper, who burst onto the scene at last year’s national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterfly.59. What is the passage mainly about?A. Stories happening in swimming competitions.B. Two women swimmers winning Olympic golds.C. Lessons learned from international swimming championships.D. Friendship and competition between two swimmers.60. Gould and Schipper are going to______.A. talk about sport and lifeB. go back to elite competitionC. set a qualifying time and win goldD. take part in the same sports event61. Gould won her three Olympic golds when she was______.A.15B.17C.22D.3062. The underlined word “it” in the fifth paragraph probably refers to______.A. the OlympicsB. the youth campC. the friendshipD. the Australian team63. What Schipper said showed that she______.A. was no longer Gould’s friendB. had learned a lot from GouldC. was not intere sted in Gould’s storiesD. would not like to compete against GouldCWith a good shopping position and the right amount（数量）of money, any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop. It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop. But the hours of work are very long—I was only doing a part-time job, but my boss put in a seventy-hour week, besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life, however,is that while I was in it I lost my love of books. A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books, and that gives him a dislike for them. There was a time when I really did love books-loved the sight and smell and feel of them—if they were fifty or more years old, that is. Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds. There is a peculiar flavour（独特的味道）about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection：little-known eighteenth-century poets, or out-of-date geography books. For occasional（偶尔的）reading—in your bath, for example, or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed—there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book.But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books. Seen in a mass, five or ten thousand at a time, books were dull and even a little tiresome. Nowadays I do buy one occasionally, but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow, and I never buy rubbish.64. According to the passage, ______ is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.A. an educated shop-ownerB. a good position at a street cornerC. a regular journey out of the shopD. the force of large chain-stores65. The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because______.A. he hated his job of selling booksB. selling books was only a part-time jobC. the books in the shop gave him a dislikeD. he was unable to be honest about the books he sold66. The books preferred by the author should be those______.A. stories making readers sleeplessB. valuable ones bought on saleC. peculiar ones with great expectationD. geography ones from the eighteenth century67. The author will only buy new books______.A. if he feels dull and tiredB. after he gives up his job as a booksellerC. which are interesting but hard to borrowD. when he throws away old onesDMillions of aircraft take off around the world every year. The skies they fly in seem limitless-miles of empty space. But, with the number of flights increasing each year, this emptiness no longer exists. Researchers in the world of aviation（航空）are worried about the increasing pressure on pilots and ground controllers. And increasing collisions ,occurring at or near an airport, have called attention to the need for more aids（辅助设备）to aviation control.People who travel the skies are not certain about air safety. A great deal of money is spent on new and bigger aircraft and airports to deal with the vast increase in passengers travelling by air. Only a small percentage of this money is spent on navigation（导航）and other aids. Actually, suitable electronic equipment has long existed, and many companies market safety aids designed to make it safer for aircraft to take off, fly any distance, and land, whatever the weather. Yet, there are two problems to be solved. The first is to get governments, airlines and airport officials to agree to basic levels of safety aids. The second problem is to find a way of meeting these basic requirements.But no matter how well the equipment works, operators of the equipment still play an important role. Communications between pilots and ground controllers are extremely important to air safety. It is worth pointing out that the mishearing or misunderstanding of instructions in English, and the use of another language, in an international conversation, have led to two recent aircraft accidents. A new type of instrument（仪器）called FLIGHTWATCH would help pilots prevent airport collisions. It would be particularly helpful near airports.68. The increasing number of flights leads to the fact that______.A. flying is no longer limited in the skyB. there is no empty space for aids to aviation controlC. piloting and controlling planes is getting more difficultD. the pressure on the ground becomes greater69. There is uncertainty about air safety because______.A. planes become bigger for the increasing number of passengersB. money spent on electronic equipment is far from enoughC. suitable electronic equipment hasn’t been invented yetD. it is dangerous for planes to take off or land70. The underlined word “collisions” probably means______.A. accidents in which two planes hit each otherB. misunderstandings between pilots and ground controllersC. quarrels among passengersD. breakdowns of new types of instrument71. It can be inferred from the passage that______.A. governments and officials have paid great attention to air safetyB. there should be more companies to sell new safety aidsC. English should be used in an international conversationD. understanding between pilots and ground controllers should be improvedEArt museums are places where people can learn about various cultures（文化）.The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales—it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled（困惑）.This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives.Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous（幽默的）part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.72. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they______.A. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do73. The author believes that most design museum visitors______.A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well74. The choices open to design museums______.A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed to interest the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits75. The best title for this passage is______.A. The forms of design museumsB. The exhibits of design museumsC. The nature of design museumsD. The choices open to design museums四、短文改错 ( 本大题共 1 题, 共计 10 分)I still remember my middle school life in Tianjin yet. I was then 76.______in a school for students from Tibet. As we were all left home 77.______at early age, we met lots of problems in our daily life. We 78.______had to do the washing, cleaning and shopping by us.

2004年4月成人本科学位英语全真试卷

[真题] 2004年4月成人本科学位英语全真试卷Reading Comprehension Directions: There are three 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.A youngster's social development has a profound effect on his academic progress. Kids who have trouble getting along with their classmates can end up behind academically as well and have a higher chance of dropping out (退学). In the early grades especially, experts say, youngsters should be encouraged to work in groups rather than individually so that teachers can spot children who may be having problems making friends, "When children work on a project," says Lillian Kate, an educational professor at the University of Illinois, "they learn to work together, to disagree, to think, to take turns and lighten tensions. These skills can't be learned through lecture. We all know people who have wonderful technical skills but don't have any social skills. Relationships should be the first R".At a certain age, children are also learning to judge themselves in relation to others. For most children, school marks the first time that their goals are not set by an internal clock but by the outside world. Just as the 1-year-old struggles to walk, the 6-year-old is struggling to meet adult expectations. "Young kids don't know how to distinguish early-childhood education for the state of New Jersey. (76) If they try hard to do something and fail, they may conclude that they will never be able to accomplish a particular task. The effects of obvious methods of comparison such as posting grades can be serious," say Hills, "A child who has had his confidence really damaged needs a rescue operation."第1题：The author seems to think that a kid's poor relationship with his classmates would ______.A.have negative effects on his studyB.develop his individualism but limit his intelligenceC.eventually lead to his leaving schoolD.have nothing to do with his achievements in a course参考答案：A 您的答案：答案解析：本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。
