Part ⅢReading Comprehension
Directions:Each of the passages below is followed by some questions.For each question there are four answers marked A,B,C and D.Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions.Then mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.(40points)
Passage 1
Only two animals have entered the human household otherwise than as prisoners and become domesticated by other means than those of enforced servititude:the dog and the cat.Two things they have in common,namely,that both belong to the order of carnivores and both serve man in their capacity of hunters.
In all other characteristics,above all in the manner of their association with man,they are as different as the night from the day.There is no domestic animal which has so rapidly altered its whole way of living,indeed its whole sphere of interests,that has become domestic in so true a sense as the dog:and there is no animal that,in the course of its centuryold association with man,has altered so little as the cat.There is some truth in the assertion that the cat,with the exception of a few luxury breeds,such as Angoras,Persians and Siamese,is no domestic animal but a completely wild being.Maintaining its full independence it has taken up its abode in the houses and outhouses of man,for the simple reason that there are more mice there than elsewhere.The whole charm of the dog lies in the depth of the friendship and the strength of the spiritual ties with which he has bound himself to man,but the appeal of the cat lies in the very fact that she has formed no close bond with him,that she has the uncompromising independence of a tiger or a leopard while she is hunting in his stables and barns;that she still remain mysterious and remote when she is rubbing herself gently against the legs of her mistress or purring contentedly in front of the fire.
The purring cat is,for me,a symbol of the heartside and the hidden security which it stands for.I should no more like to be without a cat in my home than to be without the dog that trots behind me in field or street.Since my earliest I have always had dogs and cats about me.Businesslike friends have advised me to write a dogbook and a catbook separately,because doglovers often dislike cats and catlovers frequently abhor dogs.But I consider it the finest test of genuine love and understanding of animals if a person has sympathies for both these creatures,and can apreciate in each its own special virtue.
51.Cats,according to the author,_____.
A.are not domestic animals at all
B.are fiercer than dogs
C.are both meek and independent
D.can sometimes be very hostile to people
52.Dogs and cats are similar in that _____.
A.people can use them for hunting
B.they are associated with man closely
C.they have the same way of living
D.they are equally liked by people
53.We can infer from the passage that the author _____.
A.prefers dogs to cats
B.prefers cats to dogs
C.likes dogs as well as cats
D.likes neither dogs nor cats
54.The passage concludes that _____.
A.dogs are more domesticated than cats
B.dogs are more lovable animals than cats
C.though different,dogs and cats have their charms
D.both dogs and cats can be kept as pets in one house
Passage 2
A single status may have multiple roles attached to it,constituting a role set.Consider the status of a patient in a hospital.The status involves the sick role;another role as the peer of other patients;still another role as the “appreciative”receiver of the gifts and attention of friends and family members;one role as a consumer of newspapers,magazines,and other small items purchased from a hospital attendant;and a role as acquaintance of a number of friendly hospital personnel.Or consider your status as a family member.Your status includes a variety of roles,for example,parent and child,uncle,spouse,and cousin.Clearly,a role does not exist in a social vacuum;it is a bundle of activities that are connected with the activities of other people.For this reason there can be no professors without students,no husbands without wives,no whites without nonwhites,and no lawyers without clients.
Roles affect us as sets of norms that define our duties the actions others can legitimately insist that we perform,and our right the actions we can legitimately insist that others perform.Every role has at least one reciprocal role attached to it;the rights of one role are the duties of the other role.As we have noted,we have a social niche for the sick.Sick people have rights our society says they do not have to function in usual ways until they get well.But sick people also have the duty to get well and“not enjoy themselves too much.”The sick role also entails an appeal to another party the physician.The physician must perceive the patient as trying to get well this is the physician's right and the patient's duty.And the patient must see the doctor as sincere the patient's right and the physician's duty.It should come as no surprise that the quality of medical care falters when patient and physician role expectations break down.
One way that people are linked in groups is through networks of reciprocal roles.Role relationships tie us to one another because the rights of one end of the relationship are the duties of the other.People experience these stable relationships as social structure a hospital,a college,a family,a gang,an army,and so on.
55.If your are a patient,you take on all the following roles EXCEPT the role as _____.
A.a friend of your fellow patients
B.a staff member of the hospital
C.the receiver of the treatment
D.a buyer of medicines
56.The example of the family member in Paragraph one is used to convey the idea that _____.
A.roles involve both duties and rights corresponding to them
B.a role set forms a network of interdependencies
C.family roles are far more complex than they appear
D.family members have more duties than patients
57.Which of the following may be one of the doctor's duties?
A.See to it that the patient gets well as soon as possible
B.Make sure that the patient doesn't enjoy himself too much
C.Ask the patient to be cooperative in the treatment
D.Perceive the patient as eager to get well
58.A role is best defined in its relation to _____.
A.another status
B.its obligation
C.other roles
D.its importance
Passage 3
By the 1980s,according to international but admittedly inconsistent definitions of literacy,about seven out of ten adults in the world were considered literate.The increase in literacy from ancient times to the present has not been a story of unbroken progress.The ability of people within a given society to read and write has been influenced by a number of factors,including economic wellbeing,the availability of material to read,the amount of education available,and the basic matter of the usefulness of reading.
Of these factors,usefulness has probably been the most decisive.In ancient societies,as people settled into stable patterns of agriculture and trade,it became useful for some of them to read and write in order to keep records,to transact business,and to measure amounts of land,animals,goods,materials,and produce.Since all economic aspects of a society were closely tied to the operations of government,literacy became useful and even necessary for the keeping of records by officials.The responsibilities of citizenship led to a fairly high level of literacy in ancient Greece and Rome,but in addition to that,there also grew an appreciation of good literature,poetry,drama,history,and philosophy.
During the early Middle Ages,with the general breakdown of society in Europe and the decrease of commerce,literacy became largely confined to the church.But in the late Middle Ages,in the period of the Renaissance,the great expansion of commerce and banking led to a revival in literacy for the same reason that had caused it to increase in the ancient world usefulness.
With the invention of the printing press and inexpensive paper late in the 15th century there was for the first time a great availability of reading material for a much greater number of people.Religious reformers were among the first to utilize the situation,quickly getting translations of the Bible and educational tracts and booklets into the hands of many people.
The broadened religious enlightenment that resulted was followed in later centuries by a political one.Political theorists who favored doctrines promoting the natural rights of man called for an attack upon illiteracy.Political revolutions,particularly in the United States and France,helped inaugurate an era in which all classes were called upon to become informed on public policy for their own welfare.Against this political background there emerged the movement for universal popular education.Literacy came to be understood as a means whereby the individual could benefit and advance,and gradually whole societies began to acknowledge that universal literacy among their citizens was an avenue to greater economic wellbeing.
59.Form the first paragraph we know _____.
A.it is fairly easy to determine literacy
B.there is no illiteracy in a rich family
C.history sees an even progress towards literacy
D.in history literacy suffers ups and downs
60.According to the passage,what is the major driving force behind the progress toward more literacy?
A.The amount of education.
B.The availability of reading materials.
C.The economic development.
D.The necessity to read.
61.In the Renaissance,it was _____that greatly expand literacy.
A.the religious reforms
B.the translation and popularization of the Bible
C.the availability of printing technology and cheap paper
D.the renovations of the teaching methods
62.The last paragraph is mainly about _____.
A.the religious movements that promoted the literacy of the public
B.the new progress towards literacy initiated by democratic society
C.modern political movement towards a more democratic society
D.political movements at the end of the Middle Ages fighting illiteracy
Passage 4
Every product on the market has a variety of costs built into it before it is ever put up for sale to a customer.There are costs of production,transportation,storage,advertising,and more.Each of these costs must bring in some profit at each stage:truckers must profit from transporting products,or they would not be in business.Thus,costs also include several layers of profits.The selling price of a product must take all of these costs(and builtin profits)into consideration.The selling price itself consists of a markup over the total of all costs,and it is normally based on a percentage of the total cost.
The markup may be quite high 90percent of cost or it may be low.Grocery items in a supermarket usually have a low markup,while mink coast have a very high one.High markups,however,do not in themselves guarantee big profits.Profits come from turnover.If an item has a 50percent markup and does not sell,there is no profit.But if a cereal has an 8percent markup and sells very well,there are reasonable profits.
While most pricing is based on cost factors,there are some exceptions.Prestige pricing means setting prices artificially high in order to attract select clientele.Such pricing attempts to suggest that the quality or style of the product is exceptional or that the item cannot be found elsewhere.Stores can use prestige pricing to attract wealthy shoppers.
Leader pricing and bait pricing are the opposites of prestige pricing.Leader pricing means setting low prices on certain items to get people to come into the stores.The products so priced are called loss leaders because little or no profit can be made on them.The profits are made from other products people buy while in the store.Bait pricing,now generally considered illegal,means setting artificially low prices to attract customers.The store,however,has no inttention of selling goods at the bait prices.The point is to get people into the store and persuade them of the inferiority of the lowpriced item.Then a higherpriced item is presented as a better altermative.
A common retail tactic is oddpriced products.For some products of $300,the store will set the price at $295or$299.95to give the appearance of a lower price.Automobiles and other highpriced products are usually priced in this manner.For some reason $7995has more appeal to a potential car customer than $8000.
Bid pricing is a special kind of price setting.It is often used in the awarding of government contracts.Several companies are asked to submit bids on a job,and normally the lowest bidder wins.A school system may want to buy a large number of computers.Several companies are asked to submit prices,and the school district will decide on the best bid based as well on considerations of quality and service.
63.We learn from the second paragraph,_____.
A.reducing cost is the surest way to increase profits
B.profits depend on how fast goods are moving
C.fair markup promise the greatest profits
D.lower markup brings reasonable profits
64.In a department store,the purpose of showing clients baitpriced items is to _____.
A.demonstrate the bad quality of these items
B.get them to purchase some other articles
C.earn some dirty money from these items
D.persuade them to buy what they don't really need
65.Oddeven pricing method _____.
A.is often used with very expensive items
B.is only effective on potential car customers
C.is the most popular way of pricing a product
D.is the most effective way of selling low priced products
66.In a bidding deal,_____.
A.the buyer search from place to place for desired object
B.the government selects the best items
C.the government transacts with an individual
D.the sellers compete with each other for the bid
Passage 5
Educator today are more and more often hard to say that computer literacy is absolutely necessary for college studnets.Many even argue that each incoming freshman should have permanet access to his or her own microcomputer.What advantages do computers offer the college stdent?
Any sutdent who has used a word processor willk now one compelling reason to use a computer:to write papers.Although not all sutdents feel comfortable composing on a word delete just by pressing a few keys,tus eliminating the need to rewrite or retype.Furthermore,since the revison process is less burden some,students are more likely to revise as often as is necessary to end up with the best paper possible.For these reasons,many freshman English courses require the use of a word processor.
Science studnets take advantage of computers in many ways.Using computer graphic capabilities,for example,botany studeents can repressent and analyse different plant growth patterns.Medical students can learn to interpret computerized images of internal body structures.Physics studnts can comlpete complex calculations far more quickly than they could without the use of a computer.
Similarly,business and accounting students find that computer spreadsheet programs are all but indispensable to many aspects of their work,while students pursuing careers in graphic arts,marketing,and public realtions find that knowledge of computer graphics is important.Education majors learn to develop grading systems suing computers,whill social science sutdnets use computers for analysing and graphically sisplaying their research results.
It is no wonder,then,that educators support the purchase and use of computers by studnets.A versatile tool,the computer can help studnts learn.and that is,after all,the rason for going to college.
67.The writer's chief purpose in writing this passage is to _____.
A.analyse the advantages and disadvantages of computers in education

Part IV EnglishChinese Translation
Directions:Read the following passage carefully and then translate the underlined sentences into Chinese.(15points)
Trees do more than make life pleasant;they make life possible.Trees get water through their roots and,primarily through their leaves,they draw carbon dioxide from the air.(71)Then,with the action of sunlight on cells containing chlorophyll and other materials,chemical reactions occur,and oxygen is released.Through photosynthesis,an acre of trees produces enough oxygen to sustain three humans.
(72)Eating wood might seem odd,but many lowcalorie breads and other baked goods now include powdered cellulose,which acts as a bulking agent to help hold the foods together.
Trees have always been green machines,producing substances that humans learned to use.(73)The ancient Greeks,for example,treated pain with a tea made by boiling willow leaves and bark;a tea modern scientists now know contains salicin,a precursor of acetylsalicylic acid asprin.For centuries,the Chinese have derived medicines from the ginkgo tree.(74)More recently,researchers isolated and synthesized the chemical ginkgolide from the tree for use in treating asthma,toxie shock and other ills.
As scientists unlock the secrets of trees,they uncover surprising facts.In the early 1980s David Rhoades,a chemical ecologist at the University of Washington,Seattle,discovered that trees send unseen signals to each other.(75)When willows are attacked by webworms and tent caterpillars,they give off a chemical that alerts nearby willows.The neighboring trees respond by pumping more tannin into their leaves,making them more difficult for the insects to digest.
