　　Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)
　 　Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B) ,C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
　　Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
　 　It is simple enough to say that since books have classesfiction, biography, poetry—we should separate them and take from each what it is right that each should give us. Yet few people ask from books what books can give us. Most commonly we come to books with blurred and divided minds, asking of fiction that it shall be true, of poetry that it shall be false, of biography that it shall be flattering, of history that it shall enforce our own prejudices. If we could banish all such preconception when we read, that would be an admirable beginning. Do not dictate to your author; try to become him. Be his fellowworker and accomplice(同谋). If you hang back, and reserve and criticize at first, you are preventing yourself from getting the fullest possible value from what you read. But if you open your mind as widely as possible, then signs and hints of almost imperceptible finess(委婉之处), from the twist and turn of the first sentences, will bring you into the presence of a human being unlike any other. Steep yourself in this, acquaint yourself with this, and soon you will find that your author is giving you, or attempting to give you, something far more definite. The thirtytwo chapters of anovel—if we consider how to read a novel first—are an attempt to make something as formed and controlled as a building but words are more impalpable than bricks, reading is a longer and more complicated process than seeing. Perhaps the quickest way to understand the elements of what a novelist is doing is not to read, but to write; to make your own experiment with the dangers and difficulties of words. Recall, then, some event that has left a distinct impression on you—how at the corner of the street, perhaps, you passed two people talking. A tree shook; an electric light danced; the tone of the talk was comic, but also tragic; a whole vision, an entire conception, seemed contained in that moment.
　　21.What does the author mean by saying “Yet few people ask from books what books can give us.”?
　　A.The author means that lots of people read few books.
　　B.The author thinks that readers have only absorbed part of knowledge in books.
　　C.The author holds that few people have a proper idea about what content some kind of books should include.
　　D.The author considers that readers can scarcely understand most of the books. 
　　22.According to the passage, which of the following statement is right? 
　　A.A reader should find some mistakes when he is reading.
　　B.The more difficult a book is, the more you can get from it. 
　　C.To read something is easier than to watch something.
　　D.One should be in the same track with the writer when he is reading.
　　23.What is the possible meaning of “impalpable” (Paragraph 2) in the passage?
　　A.Clear.B.Elusive.C.Delicate.D.Precise.
　　24.What’s the main idea of this passage?
　　A.The importance of reading. B.The proper way to read.
　　C.How to get most from one book. D.The characters of a good book.
　　25.When a writer is writing he often get the whole conception ____. 
　　A.after a long time’s thinking 
　　B.through an instant inspiration 
　　C.according to his own experience
　　D.by way of watching the objects attentively 

　　Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
　 　According to the dictionary definition of “create”, ordinary people are creative every day. To create means “to bring into being, to cause to exist”—something each of us does daily.
　 　We are creative whenever we look at or think about something in a new way. First this involves an awareness of our surroundings. It means using all of our sese to become aware of our world. This may be as simple as being aware of color and texture, as well as taste, when we plan a meal. Above all, it is the ability to notice things that others might miss.
　　A second part of creativity is an ability to see relationships among things. I f we believe the expression, “There is nothing new under the sun,” the creativ ity is remaking or recombining the old in new ways. For example, we might do this by finding a more effective way to study or a better way to arrange our furniture, or we might make a new combination of camera lenses and filters to cr eate an unusual photograph.
　 　A third part of creativity is the courage and drive to make use of our new ide as, to apply them to achieve some new results. To think up a new concept is one thing; to put the idea to work is another.
　 　These three parts of creativity are involved in all the great works of genius, but they are also involved in many of our daytoday activities.
　　26.Which of the following activities is NOT a creative one according to t he passage?
　　A.To prepare a meal.
　　B.To arrange the furniture in a peculiar way. 
　　C.To buy some books from a bookstore. 
　　D.To “write” a letter with the computer. 
　　27.The author holds that ____. 
　　A.creativity is of highly demand
　　B.creativity is connected with a deep insight to some extent 
　　C.creativity is to create something new and concrete
　　D.to practise and practise is the only way to cultivate one’s creativity
　　28.“There is nothing new under the sun.” (Par.3) really implies that ____. 
　　A.we can seldom create new things 
　　B.a new thing is only a tale
　　C.a new thing can only be created at the basis of original things 
　　D.we can scarcely see really new things in the world
　　29.What does the author think about the relationship between a new though t and its being put into practice?
　　A.It’s more difficult to create a new thought than to apply it in practice. 
　　B.To find a new thought will definitely lead to the production of a new thing. 
　　C.One may come up with a new thought, but can not put it into practice. 
　　D.A man with an excellent ability of practice can easily become an inventor. 
　　30.The best title for this passage is ____. 
　　A.How to Cultivate One’s Creativity 
　　B.What is Creativity
　　C.The Importance of Creativity 
　　D.Creativity—a Not Farway Thing 

　　Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
　 　When I was studying at Yale, some phenomena puzzled me greatly. I found that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese students were not as aggressive as American students.
　　I was impressed by the role of the professor in the seminar(讨论会). The professor didn’t act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a reseac her looking for answers to questions together with the students. One lingui stic(语言的) feature of his interacting with his students was that he used many modal(情态的) verbs—far more than I did in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said, “This is my personal opinion and it could be wrong.” or “You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting.”
　　 In China, authorities are always supposed to give wise decisions and correct di rections. Therefore, students always expect the professor to give an answer to th e question. I still remember how frustrated they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than that of American students. Once the Chinese students got the answer, they w ere sure about it.
　　Education in China is valued for united thinking. I remember American teachers who taught in our university complaining about the fact that Chinese students u niformly expressed the same idea in their English composition. The examinations in America usually do not test a student’s ability to memorize the material but his ability to analyze and solve problems. Education in America is valued not on ly as a means to obtain employment but as a process of enhancing critical thinking. 31.In the USA, when the students are in class, ____. A.a Chinese student tends to be very active B.an American student likes to make trouble C.a Chinese student likes to puzzle the teacher D.an American student tends to be vigorous
　　32.A teacher in the USA prefers to ____ when he answers questions.
　　A.be very sincere B.be very direct
　　C.be very selfconfident D.be very indifferent
　　33.What is the opinion of the author concerning the difference of teachin g methods between China and the USA?
　　A.He thinks that Chinese teaching metods can make students learn more. 
　　B.He holds that the major purpose of Chinese teaching methods is to impro ve students’ remembrance.
　　C.He thinks that American teaching is abilityoriented. 
　　D.He holds that American teachers hate to give a test.
　　34.The author thinks that the relationship between the student and the te acher is ____.
　　A.more intimate in China
　　B.closer in China 
　　C.looser in USA
　　D.more harmonious in USA
　　35.The education in USA may produce some ____ graduates. 
　　A.talkative B.conventional 
　　C.creative D.imaginative

　　Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
　 　Online courses (also called distance learning) are a hot new trend in American education. According to the nonprofit Distance Education and Training Council,about 400 US colleges and schools offer some portion of their programs on the We b. At the university level, they cost the same as traditional classes and requir e similar weekly assignments and textbook reading, the difference is in class pa rticipation.
　 　Generally speaking, students congregate(使聚集) online throughout each week to explore topic with the professor, but these discussions occur “asynchronousl y(不同时发生地)” rather than in real time. (You read others’ comments and post your own whenever you get a chance.) Written assignments are posted, you email in your work periodically, and you’re required to take a proctored exam in order to receive degree credit. Careerboosting business administration and information technology programs are the most popular, but you’ll also find a variety of literal arts offerings, from film theory to medieval history and foreign lang uage study. While you still can’t get an Ivy League degree online, a growing number of elite(卓越的) institutions, including Stanford and New York Univer sity are beginning to offer online courses.
　 　The benefits for busy people are obvious. “I always get a frontrow seat,” says one student studying at the State University of New York Learning Network. “I can get up in the middle of class, grab a cup of coffee. The class is waiting for me when I get back, and I haven’t missed a thing.” On the other hand, some students miss the facetoface interaction that often sparks interest and involvement. 36.Generally speaking, online education costs ____. A.more than the traditional one B.less than the traditional one C.as much as the traditional one D.the author hasn’t mentioned
　　37.The major way to hand out assignments of online students is ____. 
　　A.to hand out them in person 
　　B.to post them
　　C.to email in them
　　D.to let the teacher enter into their personal main pages
　　38.Which kind of program is probably NOT welcomed by most of the students? 
　　A.Software development.
　　B.Decoration and design. 
　　C.International trade.
　　D.Company management.
　　39.The closest meaning of “Ivy League” (Par. 2) ____. 
　　A.famous universities in USA
　　B.famous business colleges in USA 
　　C.famous companies in USA 
　　D.universities with a long history 
　　40.It is implied that in USA ____.
　　A.online education will take the place of the traditional one soon 
　　B.there are only a few online programs until now
　　C.one need not take part in the exam in order to receive a diploma by way of online education
　　D.one can not receive a degree certificate of New York University through distant learning

　　Part Ⅱ 1
　　短文大意 
　　本散文谈读书方法。作者认为许多
　　读者因存在太多先入之见而不能从书中汲取它们所能提 供给我们的东西。而如果能在阅读时尽量和作者融为一体的话，就可以体会到书本中的许多 微妙之处。最后作者又告诉读者可通过动手练笔的方式领会作家是如何创作的，灵感和构思 是如何得来的。 21.答案C。
　　【参考译文】 作者说“然而很少有人向书籍索取它们所能提 供给我们的东西。”的真正 含义是什么?
　　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对含义复杂句子的正确理解” 的能力。
　　【详细解答】 解答此题，正确理解“Yes…us”一句含义是 关键。其实质含义是：“许多
　 　人读书时因观念不正确，而仅仅能从书本中得到很少的知识获得很少的启迪”。这样，我们 就可以对选项进行逐个分析取舍了。A项意为“作者认为许多人读的书都太少”，显然与我 们的分析不符。B项意为“作者认为读者仅仅从书中汲取了部分知识。”这句话只是引文部 分的字面含义，所以也应排除。再看C项作者认为许多人对某类书应该包含什么样的内容没 有正确的观念。这才是作者的隐含意思，所以是正确的。而D项“作者认为许多读者对大量 的书都不能读懂。”这也是一种错误的理解，也应排除。这样就可确定选项为C。 
　　22.答案D。
　 　【参考译文】 根据短文，下面的说法哪一个是正确的? 【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对具体细节的把握”的能力。 【详细解答】 此题只能用排除法，去掉与文章细节不符的选 项。选项A意为“读者在阅读时应该能发现一些错误。”文章中没有此细节，可排除。B项“一本书越难读，从中得到知 识也越多。”也与文意无关。再看C项“阅读比观看容易。”根据文章第二段第四句最后一分句可知这正与作者的观点相反，故也排除。最后只剩下D项，应为正确 答案。而其内容“读者在阅读时应和作者保持一致。”正是作者的观点，无疑正确。 
　　23.答案B。
　 　【参考译文】 第二段中“impalpable”一词最可能的含义是什么? 【试题分析】 此题考查学生“根据上下文推测生词含义”的能力。 【详细解答】 先看上文：作家想把素材安排得像一座完整的大房，使之具体化。接下来就是含有“impalpable”一句。句首用“but”引导，有转折含义。所以此单 词意义可能与“具体”相对。再看下文，阅读比观看更复杂和费时。这样，该词的含义就可以基本确定了，应该是“非常抽象难以捉摸的”之类的意思。(这里与” 砖头”相比，更加强了这一点)据此可 排除A、D项。C项意为“微妙”，意近。但B项恰好意为“难以捉摸的”，更与生词含义接近 ，所以应选B。此题目C项干扰性较大，注意要避免匆忙选择，而功亏一篑。 
　　24.答案B。
　　【参考译文】 此文的主要内容是什么?
　　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对文章的主旨和大意的把握”的能力。 【详细解答】 解答此题关键在于先弄清文章的主旨和大意。 在此基础上就可进行选弃了。
　　此短文主要讲“何为正确的读书方法”。据此，A项“阅读的重要性”，C项“如何从书中获 取最多的信息”，D项“一本好书的特征”，均不能选。而B项“何为正确的读书方法”，正 与我们的分析不谋而合，所以B为正确答案无疑。 
　　25.答案B。
　　【参考译文】 作家在写作时，常通过什么样的方式来获得构 思?
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对具体细节正确理解”的能力。 【详细解答】 答案可从文章最后一句获得。解答此类题的关 键就是找到并正确理解有关细节。根据最后一句可知“作家构思的获得是通过瞬间的感悟。”这样，就可对选项进行逐 个分析了。A项意为“通过长期的思考”，虽符合一般常识，但不是作者看法，排除。B项意为“瞬间/快速的灵感”，与作者的观点十分接近，有正确的可能。再 看C项“根据作者自己的 经历”，作者也没有提及。而D项“通过专心致志地观看描写的对象”，这只是构思活动过 程的一部分。与B项相比，也应排除。现在就可确定：B项为正确答案。 

　　短文大意
　 　 本文主要介绍了什么是创造力。作者认为创造力离我们并不遥远，我们每天都在创造。创造力有三个方面的表现，第一是以新的方式观察和思考。第二是能观察到事 物之间的关系。 第三是运用新思想的勇气和激情，运用新思想来获得新的效果。最后作者指出创造力的三方 面需要全面非凡的天赋，但同时也需要我们日常许许多多的亲身实践。 
　　26.答案C。
　　【参考译文】 下列哪一种活动不具有创造性?
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“根据所读材料进行一定的判断”的能力。 【详细解答】 本题可用排除法。根据第一段可知创造力的含 义是“使事物产生”，“致使事物存在”。而它三个方面的表现可参考“短文大意”，据此，A项“做饭”是一种日常 生活中的“使饭产生”，具有创造性。B项“用一种独我的方式安排家俱”，为创造力第二 面详述中的例子，故也是创造活动。再看C项“从书店买书”，只是一种简单的行为，不涉 及创造性。而D项“用电脑写一封信”即“创造一封信”，也为创造性活动，也不能选。这样就可得出结论，A、B、D项不能选，C为正确答案。解答此题时要千 万注意 问题的提问方式是问“哪一个不是”，以免错误理解题意而误选。 
　　27.答案B。
　　【参考译文】 作者认为……
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对具体细节的把握”的能力。 【详细解答】 此题的解答需要在理解文章大意及细节基础上 进行。选项A意为“创造力对人的素质要求很高”。此项初看正确，而且作者在文章末尾也提到。但根据文章开头，可 知平凡人每天都在创造。所以只能先在此选项上作个标记，再继续分析。选项B意为“创造力在一定程度上取决于非凡的洞察力。”根据最后一段，可知这是一种 “天赋”，故正确。选项C 认为“创造力只体现在创造某些新的具体东西”，失之片面。D项认为“不断实践是培养创 造力的唯一方面”，也失之片面(参见文章最后一句)。这样就只剩下A、B项，两者相比，A 项似乎仍显武断和片面，故也排除。这样就可确定B为正确答案。
　　28.答案C。
　　【参考译文】 “太阳之下无新物”(第三段)的真正含义是什么?
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“根据上下文理解含义复杂句子”的能力。 【详细解答】 此题可在正确理解句子含义的基础上采取“排 除法”来解答。根据上下文可以得知：此句的真正含义是“任何新事物的产生都是建立在原有事物基础之上的”。据此， A项认为“我们很少能创造新事物”，显然只是句子的字面意思，不正确。B项“创造新事物 是一个神话”，也为字面理解。再看C项“只有在原有事物基础之上才能创造新事物”，这不 正是我们分析得出的结论吗?而D项“我们几乎不可能看到新事物”，更是差之甚远。这样就 可确定C项为正确答案无疑。 
　　29.答案C。
　　【参考译文】 作者如何认识获得新思想与将其付诸于实践的 关系?
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对特定的细节的把握”的能力。 【详细解答】 先找有关细节。此问题涉及到对文章第三段最 后一句的理解。作者认为“获得新思想并不意味着就能够将其付诸实践，暗含“知易行难”的意义。这样，我们就可对 选项进行分析选弃了。先看A项“获得新思想比将其付诸实践困难”。显然刚好与我们分析 的含义相反，故排除，再看B项“只要获得新思想就可将其付诸实践。”也不对。而C项“一 个人可能获得某种新思想，但有可能无法将其付诸实践。”正是作者的观点，所以是正确的 。也就无需看D。 实际上，D项说“实践能力很强的人容易成为发明家。”并不是作者的观 点，因为作者只是认为实践对培养创造力是具有重要作用，所以也不正确。这样就可确定C 为正确答案无疑。 30.答案B。
　　【参考译文】 本文最好的标题是什么?
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对阅读材料主旨和大意的把握”的能力。 【详细解答】 首先快速通读全文(注意主题句)，可知文章主 要谈论的是“创造力的含义及其三个方面的表现”，整篇文章都是围绕创造力展开的。现在来分析选项。A项意为“如 何培养创造力”，初看符合文章内容，但仔细分析，文章只在最后一段提到了培养创造力三个方面的途径和要求，所以不能选。看B项“什么是创造力”，这个题目 下可写和创造力有关 的许多东西如创造力定义，表现及培养途径，所以有道理。再看C项“创造力的重要性”， 文章没有提及。而D项“创造力离我们并不遥远”，也只是文章开头提到，中间涉及一点， 也不确切。这样就可确定，B项为正确答案。

　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对文章某些细节的理解”的能力。 【详细解答】 在文章中找到有关的细节为解此题的关键。从 文章第一段的最后两句可得知“中国留学生在课堂上表现很有礼貌和节制，而美国学生则非常主动和活跃。”据此，A项 说“中国学生在课堂上表现很活跃”，则正好与事实相反，故排除。看B项“美国学生喜欢 捣乱”。虽然作者在第一段倒数第二句提到“美国学生有时甚至控制课堂讨论”，但这并不 说明他们故意捣乱，而是表现积极活跃的一种方式。所以也不对。而C项说“学生喜欢为难 老师”，显然也只是字面理解，与B项判断犯同样错误，故也不对。最后看D项“美国学生经 常表现得非常活跃”，正是我们与作者得出的结论，所以是选项无疑。解答此题也给了我们一个启示：某些干扰项迷惑性很大，不能一眼识别，所以在选择时可能需 要进行反复比较思考 ，方能断定其正确与否。我们要记住这一点。 
　　32.答案A。
　　【参考译文】 美国教师在回答问题时更表现得……
　 　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“对文章某些段落把握”的能力。 【详细解答】 文章第二段是解答问题的关键。此段主要谈论 “美国教授在上课时扮演的是与学生平等的角色”，并介绍了“这种情况的种种表现”。现在，我们来看选项。A项“ 非常诚恳”，符合事实，先标出，看有没有更合适的。B项“非常直接”，显然不对，即使 美国老师语气委婉，也只是“不直接”。C项意为“非常自信”，文章没有提到这一点， 也不能选。再看D项“非常冷淡”，更是荒谬。这样也就只能选A。 
　　33.答案C。
　　【参考译文】 作者如何评价中美教育方式的差异? 【试题分析】 此题考查学生“理解作者观点”的能力。
　 　【详细解答】 解答此类题目，首先也必须象解答“有关文章 主要内容题目”一样，首先应掌握全文的主旨和大意，据此才能在理解作者观点时，不致管中窥豹，以致偏颇。迅速通 读全文，可知作者意在抨击中国教育方式的弊端。这样，作者的观点也就昭然若揭了。现在 看选项。A项“中国教育方式能传授更多知识”。这或许可能，但文中没提，故不能选，而且作者也不可能将这样的话写入文中，自相矛盾。所以A项排除。看B项 “中国教育方式集中在如何提高学生记忆力上”，文中没有提及，而且显然也太片面。作者只在课文最后一段暗示中国 式考试偏重于考查学生记忆力。所以也不能选。再看C项“美国教育重在培养学生能力”。 作者在对中国教育抨击的同时，也对美国教育的某些做法表示赞成，而这一点正是作者对美国教育考查后得出的结论之一，所以正确。至此就可排除D项。而实际上 D项说“美国教师讨厌考试”， 与文章无关，所以也不能选。 
　　34.答案D。
　　【参考译文】 (中美相比)作者认为学生与教师间的关系…… 【试题分析】 此题考查学生“根据所读材料进行推断”的能力。 
　 　【详细解答】 推理(断)题属于要求较高的题型。它要求学生 不仅能正确理解文章(或某些细节)，也要能据此进一步推测其中暗含的意思。先看短文，特别注意第一段和第二段。 现在再来逐个分析选项。A项说“中国师生关系更密切”，是否如此?老师是权威，表面上可以更有力控制学生，但学生从心目中肯定是对教师敬而远之的，所以这 种看法是表面上的，不 正确。B项说“中国师生关系更近”，与A项意近，也不能选。注意这两个选项的迷惑性 。 再看C项说“美国师生之间关系松散”。平等交流，并不等于松散，最多只能是和谐，所以 也不能选。再看D项说“美国师生之间关系和谐”，正合作者的看法，所以只能选D。 
　　35.答案C。
　　【参考译文】 美国教育方法可能培养出什么样的学生?
　　【试题分析】 此题考查学生“根据所读材料进行推断”的能力。
　 　【详细解答】 此题的问题太宽泛，只能根据选项，结合文章，进行取舍。A项意为“健谈 的”，正确吗?学生上课积极主动，能锻炼口才和外向性格，但是否有点片面，先标出。再 看B项“默守成规的”，肯定不对，此项更符合中国学生。而C项是“具有创造力的”，美国平 等式的、自由、宽松的教育方式，鼓励学生培养独立分析、解决问题的能力，这样培养出来的学生势必多具有“创造力”，符合事实。再看D项，“具有想象力 的”。美国学生更具有实干精 神，所以也不对。这样只剩下A和C选项，两者相比，C项更准确，所以选项为C。
