　　Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题，每小题2分，共40分)
　　Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.
　　Passage 1
　　Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
　　Ask three people to look the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.
　　Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what the senses—in this case our eyes—tell us.
　　Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.
　　1. Seeing and perceiving are .
　　A. the same action
　　B. two separate actions
　　C. two actions carried on entirely by eyes
　　D. several actions that take place at different times
　　2. Perceiving is an action that takes place .
　　A. in our eyes
　　B. only when we think very hard about something
　　C. only under the direction of a psychologist
　　D. in every person’s mind
　　3. People perceive different things about the same scene because .
　　A. they see different things B. some have better eyesight
　　C. they cannot agree about things D. none of these
　　4. Which of the following is implied but not stated in the passage?
　　A. Psychologists do not yet know people see.
　　B. The experiments in which all factors are controlled are better.
　　C. The study of perception is going on now.
　　D. Perception does not involve psychological factors.
　　5. The best title for this selection is .
　　A. How We See
　　B. Learning about Our Minds through Science
　　C. What Psychologists Perceive
　　D. How to Because an Experimental Psychologist
　　Passage 2
　　Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
　　The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown tat 40 percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. Different cultures ate more prone to get certain illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites, commonly used to preserve color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to beef and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.

　　Passage 3
　　Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
　　Unlike their American or European counterparts, car salesmen in Japan work hard to get a buyer. Instead of lying lazily around showrooms waiting for customers to drop by, many Japanese car salesmen still go out to get them. They walk wearily along the streets cars door-to-door. New customers are hunted with fruit and cakes on their birthdays. But life is getting tough, and not just because new-car sales are falling.
　　With more Japanese women (who often control the household budget) going out to work, the salesmen increasingly find nobody at home when they call. That means another visit in the evening or the weekend. Then they face an extra problem: more people, especially the young, prefer to choose a new car from a showroom where they can compare different models.
　　Even as late as the mid-1980s some 90% of new cars were sold door-to-door. In some rural areas most new cars are still sold this way. But in the big cities more than half the new cars are now sold from showrooms.
　　Although investing in showrooms is expensive because of the high cost of Japanese land, dealers have little choice. A labor shortage and higher expectations among Japan’s workforce are making it difficult to hire door-to-door salesmen. Most of a Japanese car salesman’s working day is spent doing favors for customers, like arranging insurance or picking up vehicles for servicing, rather than actually selling.
　　Japan’s doorstep car salesmen are not about to vanish. The personal service they provide is so deep-rooted in Japan that they are likely to operate alongside the glittering new showrooms. The two systems even complement each other. What increasingly happens is that the showroom attracts the interest of a potential buyer, giving the footsore salesmen a firm lead to follow up with a home visit.

　　Passage 4
　　Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
　　The new global satellite communications systems will offer three kinds service, which may overlap in many different kinds of receivers.
　　VOICE. Satellite telephones will be able to make calls from anywhere on the Earth to anywhere else. That could make them especially useful to remote, third world villages (some of which already use stationary satellite telephones), explorers and disaster-relief teams. Today’s mobile telephones depend on earth-bound transmitters, where technical standards vary from country to country. So business travelers cannot use their mobile phones on international trips. Satellite telephones would make that possible.
　　MESSAGING. Satellite massagers have the same global coverage as satellite telephones, but carry text alone, which could be useful for those with laptop computers. Equipped with a small screen like today’s papers, satellite massagers will also receive short messages.
　　TRACKING. Voice and messaging systems will also tell their users where they are to within a few hundred meters. Combined with the messaging service, the location service could help rescue teams to find stranded adventurers, the police to find stolen cars, exporters to follow the progress of cargoes, and haulage companies to check that drivers are not detouring the pub. America’s military Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite will provide better positioning information to anyone who has a receiver for their signals, but GPS does not carry messages, so such a receiver cannot be used on its own for tracking or rescue. By the mid-1990s, GPS receivers will be able to tell people where they are to within 70 meters anywhere in the world, and to within a meter or so in areas where the service is supplemented by ground-based transmitter.
　　16. Global satellite communications systems will be useful to .
　　A. laptop computer users B. remote villages
　　C. disaster-relief teams D. all above
　　17. Satellite telephone will make .
　　A. business travelers use mobile phones on international trips
　　B. possible calls from anywhere on earth to anywhere else
　　C. explorers happy
　　D. all above

　　C. They are costly. D. Both A and B.
　　20. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?
　　A. Global Satellite Communications B. New Voice and Messaging System
　　C. New Generation Satellite D. Always in Touch
　　Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
　　One if the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspapers; signal to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night.
　　Advertising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without adding customer-appeal to all his other problem of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers (赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.
　　Other manufactures find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration sees called for how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.
　　16. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modern advertising?
　　A. Indifferent B. Shocked C. Disapproving D. Approving
　　17. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designs a product?
　　A. Stress factors B. Man-hours
　　C. Machine tolerances D. Customer-appeal
　　18. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a product customer-appeal are .
　　A. customers B. designers C. advertisers D. manufacturers
　　19. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, a manufacturer will choose to
　　A. lower the production cost B. hire a better designer
　　C. improve its quality D. alter its image
　　20. The best title for the passage might be .
　　A. Advertising since the War
　　B. Advertising and Manufacturers
　　C. Advertising—England’s Biggest Industry
　　D. Advertising and Purchasers

　　What makes a child speak a language has long been a puzzle to linguists. 61 speaking, there are two schools of linguists, both of whom try to explain 62 a child picks up a language so easily. The fact that a child picks a language 63 is 64 : At one year old, a child is able to say “bye-bye”; at two, he is able to use fifty; by there he begins to 65 tenses. The famous American linguist Noam Chomsky 66 that human being have a sort of built-in system for language use, and that the 67 is 68 . Children are not taught language 69 they are taught arithmetic. Other linguists, 70 , hold the view that a child learns 71 of his language from the hints in the environment. 72 , theorists of both schools 73 that there is a biological basis for language use. The 74 is which is more important, the inner ability or the environment. This is certainly a field 75 to be explored. Researchers from both schools are busy finding evidence to 76 their own theory, but 77 side is persuading the other.

　　Part V 参考例文
　　Keeping Fit
　　Obviously, health is more important than anything else we have in this world. Good health is a necessity for us to enjoy our life and pursue our dreams in the society. On the other hand, poor health may lead to poor chances in our career, making us pessimistic about our future. In other words, good health means more chances and much happier life in the world.
　　There are some effective ways to keep us healthy. Firstly, we have to form a good habit in our daily life. Franklin once said that early to bed and early to rise made one healthy and wealthy. That is to say, a good habit of life is very important for us to be successful in our career. Besides, drinking and smoking do great harm to our health, so you have to keep away from them. Secondly, exercises may keep us very strong. Although each of us is very busy with our daily work and study, we will never forget to spend some time doing exercises. Thirdly, a balanced diet is a must to keep us healthy. We’d better not have too much fat and sugar, which may cause us to become overweight. Vegetables and fruits provide us various vitamins; therefore, do not hesitate to enjoy these foods.
　　In conclusion, health is very valuable for each of us. If you could follow the advice we’ve proposed above, you will be sure to keep fit and enjoy your happy life.
