Section III Reading Comprehension (60 minutes)
　　Part A
　　根据以下资料，回答41-60题：
　　A finding in recent years shows that men cannot manufacture blood as efficiently as women can．This
makes surgery riskier for men．Because they do not breathe as often as women，men also need more oxy
gen．But men breathe more deeply and this exposes them to another risk．They draw more of the air wh
en it is polluted．
　　Men's bones are larger than women's and they are arranged somewhat differently．The feminine wal
k that evokes so many whistles is a matter of bone structure．A man has broader shoulders and a narr
ower pelvis，which makes him stride out with no waste motion．A woman's wider pelvis，designed for c
hildbearin9，forces her to put more movement into each step she takes with the result that she displ
ays a bit of jiggle and sway as she walks．
　　If you think a man is brave because he can climb a ladder to clean out the roof gutters．don't f
orget it is easier for him than for a woman．The angle at which a woman's thigh is joined to her kne
es makes climbing difficult for her，no matter whether it is a ladder or stairs or a mountain that s
he is tackling．
　　A man's skin is thicker than a woman's and not nearly as soft．This prevents the sun's radiation
from getting through，which is why men wrinkle less than women do．Women have a thin lay-er of fat
just under the skin and there is a plus to this greater fat reserve．It acts as an invisible fur coa
t to keep a woman wanner in the winter．Women also stay cooler in summer．Because the fat layer help
s insulate them against heat．Men's fat is distributed differently．And they do not have that layer
of it underneath their skin．In fact，they have considerably less than women and more lean mass．41
percent of a man's body is muscle compared to thirty．five percent for women，which means that men h
ave more mus proportion of muscle to fat makes it easier for men to lose weight．Muscle bums up five
more calories a pound than fat does just to maintain itself．So when a man wants to lose weight．th
e pounds roll off much faster．For all men's muscularity they do not have the energy re-serves women
d0．They have more start-up energy，but the fat tucked away in women's nooks and crannies provides
a rich energy reserve that men lack．
　　Cardiologists at the University of Alabama who tested healthy women on treadmills discovered tha
t over the years the female capacity for exercise far exceeds the male capacity．A woman of sixty wh
o is in good health can exercise up t0 90 percent of what she could do when she was twenty．A man of
sixty has only 60 percent left of his capacity as a twenty-year-old．
　　41、That boys suffer more from air pollution can possibly be justified by the fact that______．
　　A．the male have larger bones than the female
　　B．women can manufacture blood more efficiently than men
　　C．men usually breathe more deeply than women
　　D．women breathe as often as men
　　42、 The different ways men and women move their body indicate that______．
　　A．bone structures in men and women are arranged differently
　　B．women's bones are more ready to movement
　　C．men always move their bodies with waste mouons
　　D．women are good at climbing upwards
　　43、 It can be concluded from the passage that______．
　　A．men suffer more from sun's radiation than women do
　　B．men will be more exhausted than women after a long tnp
　　C．the higher proportion of fat in women's body makes them easier to lose welghl
　　D．an aged man can still exercise his body as he was young
　　44、 The best title for the above article is______．
　　A．Why Men Lack Capacity for Exercise over the Years
　　B．How Men's Bones Are Arranged Differently from Women's
　　C．Studies on Differences and Similarities between Men and Women
　　D．Men and Women：Some Differences
　　45、 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
　　A．More oxygen needs to be prepared when a man 18 having surgery．
　　B．Man's courage has nothing to do with male's body structure．
　　C．A woman usually stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter．
　　D．It is easier for a man to lose his weight．

根据以下资料，回答51-70题：
　　I remember the way the light touched her hair．She turned her head，and our eyes met，a momentary aw
areness in that raucous fifth grade classroom．I felt as though l'd been struck a blow under the hea
rt．Thus began my first love affair．
　　Her name was Rachel，and I mooned my way through the grade and high school，stricken at the mere
sight of her，tongue-tied in her presence．Does anyone，anymore，linger in the shadows of evening，
drawn by the pale light of a window--her window--like some hapless summer insect? That delirious swo
oning，asexual but urgent and obsessive，that made me awkward and my voice crack，is like some impos
sible dream now．
　　I would catch sight of her，walking down an aisle of trees to or from school，and I'd become Par
alyzed．She always seemed so poised，so self-possessed． At home，I'd relive each encounter， writhi
ng at the thought of my inadequacies．We eventually got acquainted and socialized as we entered our
adolescence，she knew I had a case on her，and I sensed her affectionate tolerance for me．"Going st
eady"implied a maturity we still lacked．Her Orthodox Jewish upbringing and my own Catholic scruples
imposed an inhibited grace that made even kissing a distant prospect, however fervently desired．I
managed to hold her once at a dance-chaperoned，of course．Our embrace made her giggle．a sound SO t
rusting that I hated myself for what I 'd been thinking．At any rate，my love for Rachel remained un
requited．We graduated from high school，she went on t0 college，and I joined the Army．
　　When World War II engulfed US．I was sent overseas．For a time we corresponded and her letters w
ere the highlight of those grinding endless years．Once she sent me a snapshot of herself in a bathi
ng suit，which drove me to the wildest of fantasies．I mentioned the possibility of marriage in my n
ext letter．and almost immediately her replies became less frequent，less personal．Her Dear John le
tter finally caught up with me while l was awaiting discharge．She gently explained the im- possibil
ity of a marriage between US．Looking back on it．I must have recovered rather quickly，al-though fo
r the first few months I believed I didn't want to live．Like Rachel，I found someone else，whom I l
earned to love with a deep and permanent commitment that has lasted to this day．
　　51、According to the passage，how old was the author when his first love affair began?

　　B．His Catholic adherence forbade it．
　　C．They were not sure whether it was proper or ethical to kiss in line with their religious decorum．

根据以下资料，回答56-75题：
　　In the late years of the nineteenth century．"capital"and"labour"were enlarging and perfecting their
rival organizations on modem lines．Many an old firm was replaced by a limited liability company wi
th a bureaucracy of salaried managers．The change met the technical requirements of the new age by e
ngaging a large professional element and prevented the decline in efficiency that so commonly spoile
d the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation after the energetic founders．It w
as moreover a step away from individual initiative，towards collectivism and municipal and state-own
ed business．The railway companies，though still private business managed for the benefit of shareho
lders，were very unlike old family business．Meanwhile the great municipalities went into business t
o supply lighting，trams and other services to the taxpayers．
　　The growth of the limited liability company and municipal business had important consequences．S
uch large，impersonal manipulation of capital and industry greatly increased the numbers and importa
nce of shareholders as a class，an element in national life representing irresponsible wealth detach
ed from the land and the duties of the landowners；and almost equally detached from the responsible
management of business．During the nineteenth century，America，Africa，India， Australia and parts
of Europe were being developed by British capital，and British shareholders were thus enriched by th
e world's movement towards industrialization．Towns like Bournemouth and Eastbourne sprang up to hou
se large"comfortable"classes who had retired on their incomes，and who had no relation to the rest o
f the community except that of drawing dividends and occasionally attending a shareholders'meeting t
o dictate their orders to the management．On the other hand"shareholdin9"meant leisure and freedom w
hich was used by many of the later Victorians for the highest purpose of a great civilization．
　　The"shareholders"as such had no knowledge of the lives，thoughts or needs of employees in the co
mpany in which they held shares，and their influence on the relations of capital and labour was not
good．The paid manager acting for the company was in more direct relation with the work-ers and thei
r demands，but even he had seldom familiar personal knowledge of the workmen which the employers had
often had under the more patriarchal system of the old family business．Indeed the mere size of ope
rations and the number of workmen involved rendered such personal relations　impossible．Fortunately
，however，the increasing power and organization of the trade unions，at least in all skilled trades
．enabled the workmen to meet on equal terms the managers of the companies who employed them．The cr
uel discipline of the strike and lockout taught the two parties to respect each other's strength and
understand the value of fair negotiation．
　　56、The author says that old family firms_______．
　　A．were mined by the younger generations
　　B．failed for lack of individual initiative
　　C．lacked efficiency compared with modem companies
　　D．were able to supply adequate services to taxpayers
　　57、 The growth of limited liability companies resulted in_______．
　　A．the separation of capital from management
　　B．the ownership of capital by managers
　　C．the emergence of capital and labour as two classes
　　D．the participation of shareholders in land ownership
　　58、 The text indicates that_______．
　　A．some countries developed quickly because of the emergence of the limited liability companies
　　B．the tide of industrialization would widely benefit British shareholders greatly
　　C．shareholders contributed a lot to the fast growth of the British economy
　　D．the system of shareholding impaired the management of modem companies
　　59、 We learn from the text that_______．
　　A．shareholders often cast negative influence on the well-being of workers
　　B．owners of traditional finns enjoyed a good relationship with their employees
　　C．limited liability companies were too large to run smoothly
　　D．trade unions had a positive role on workers and the management
　　60、 The author appears to be very critical of_______．
　　A．family finn owners
　　B．shareholders
　　C．managers
　　D．landowners

Section III Reading Comprehension

　　Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese．Your tran
slation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2．
　　61)In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many househo
ld tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent,notions of male superiority are hard to maintain．
The paRem of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality，and this in turn leads to further
sharin9．62)In such a home,the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than
their parents did and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperatio
n rather than by the"battle of the sexes"．
　　If the process goes too far and man's role is not regarded as important as before--and that has
happened in some cases--we are as badly off as before．only in reverse．
　　We should reassess the role of the man in the American family．We are getting a little tired of"
Momism"．but we don't want to change it into a "Neo-papism".
　　What we need is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equality．
　　63)There are signs that psychologists and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of t
he part men play and that they have de-cided that women should not receive all the credit, nor all t
he blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman's place is at home．64)We are beginning,howeve
r,to study a man's place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it．Nor is that plac
e irrelevant to the healthy development of the child．
　　65)The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules,because ea
ch family member needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems．Excessive antiauthorit
arianism has unhappy consequences，whether it wears skirts or trousers，and the ideal of equal right
s and equal responsibilities is relevant not only to a healthy democracy，but also to a healthy fami
ly．
