Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. Passage One It was Friday,the day of the field trip on which Miss Joan would take her class to pick apples. Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard(果园). The bus ride was bumpy and the kids were a little noisy,but still Miss Joan was smiling. The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Orchard Store and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there.“What a glorious,sunny,apple picking day,”Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile. Mr. Greenly was there to greet them.“Let me see,there are eighteen children and two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars,please.” Miss Joan held up the brochure in her hand.“It says that the price is two dollars each,”she pointed out.“That’s what I collected from everyone.” “We’ve had to raise the price,”Mr. Greenly stated. “You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation,”Miss Joan complained, “and it says two dollars!” “Miss Joan,if you look at the bottom of this brochure,”Mr. Greenly said,“you’ ll notice a very important statement.” Sure enough,in very tiny letters,it said,“Prices are subject to change without notice.” Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope. “Now children,do you all have your baskets?”Miss Joan called out.“Remember, you can pick as many apples as six apples each.” “I beg your pardon!”Miss Joan was not smiling now.“The brochure says,‘ALL YOU CAN PICK’!” Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says,“Terms and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice.”
Miss Joan’s good mood was now history. She didn’t want to set a bad example for her students,so she said in a calm and quiet voice,“We’re going home,give me our money back,please.” 31. How many dollars did Miss Joan hand to Mr. Greenly? A. 20 B. 40 C. 60 D. 18 32. The phrase“subject to change without notice”suggests A. Mr. Greenly could change the terms at will. B. the customers should read the brochure carefully. C. Mr. Greenly could determine what apples to be picked. D. the customers should be informed beforehand. 33. The students could not pick as many apples as they would like because A. they were children. B. there were not enough apples. C. they had made a group reservation. D. they would eat up too many apples. 34.“Miss Joan’s good mood was now history?”(the last paragraph)means A. Miss Joan had been happy until that moment. B. Miss Joan was no longer interested in history. C. Miss Joan taught her students the history of the orchard. D. Miss Joan was good at concealing her feelings. 35. What can we learn about Miss Joan from the story? A. She did not read the brochure carefully. B. She made a reservation after seeing the brochure. C. She lost her temper in the end. D. She didn’t know how to complain. Passage Two Both civilization and culture are fairly modern words,having come into prominent use during the 19th century by anthropologists(人类学家),historians,and literary figures. There has been a strong tendency to use them interchangeably as though they mean the same thing,but they are not the same. Although modern in their usage,the two words derived from ancient Latin. The word civilization is based on the Latin civis,of a city. Thus civilization,in its most essential meaning,is the ability of people to live together harmoniously in cities, in social groupings. From this definition it would seem that certain insects,such as ants or bees,are also civilized. They live and work together in social groups. So do some microorganisms. But there is more to civilization,and that is what culture brings to it. So,civilization is inseparable from culture. The word culture is derived from the Latin verb colere,till the soil. But colere also has a wider range of meanings. It may,like civis,mean inhabiting a town or village. But most of its definitions suggest a process of starting and promoting growth and development. One may cultivate a garden;one may also cultivate one’ s interests,mind,and abilities. In its modern use the word culture refers to all the positive aspects and achievements of humanity that make mankind different from the rest of the animal world. Culture has grown out of creativity,a characteristic that seems to be unique to human beings. One of the basic and best-known features of civilization and culture is the presence
of tools. But more important than their simple existence is that the tools are always being improved and enlarged upon,a result of creativity. It took thousands of years to get from the first wheel to the latest,most advanced model of automobile. It is the concept of humans as toolmakers and improvers that differentiates them from other animals. A monkey may use a stick to knock a banana from a tree,but that stick will never,through a monkey’s cleverness,be modified into a hook or a ladder. Monkeys have never devised a spoken language,written a book,composed a melody, built a house,or painted a portrait. To say that birds build nests and beavers (海狸)their dens is to miss the point. People once lived in caves,but their cleverness , imagination , and creativity led them to progress beyond caves to buildings. 36. What does the author think of the words“civilization”and“culture”? A. They are identical. B. They are different concepts. C. They can often be used interchangeably. D. They are defined differently by different people. 37. According to the author the word“civilization”originally refers to . A. people’s way of life in cities B. people’s ability to live together in cities C. a type of social organizations D. an advanced level of social life 38. The Latin verb colere originally means“ ”. A. live in a city B. develop oneself C. promote growth D. cultivate the land 39. The author believes that creativity . A. is a unique feature of civilized beings B. brings forth the improvement of tools C. is the result of human development D. helps the advance of culture 40. The author mentions monkeys in the last paragraph to show that . A. monkeys are the same as birds B. people once lived in caves like monkeys C. monkeys can never develop into human beings D. man is different from other animals such as monkeys Passage Three The huge growth of global“ecotourism”industry is becoming an increasing concern for conservationists with mounting evidence that many wild species do not respond well to contact with human beings. Overexposure to tourists has been linked to stress,abnormal behaviour and adverse health effects in species such as polar bears, dolphins and gorillas(大猩猩),says a report in New Scientist. While regulated ecotourism can help conservation efforts by encouraging people to manage endangered species and their habitats,many projects are poorly designed and unregulated,it says.“Many ecotourist projects are unaudited,unauthorized and merely hint they are based on environmentally friendly policies and operations.”
Ecotourism is growing by 10 to 30 percent a year and an estimated 20 percent of tourists are thought to visit a conservation-based project. Philip Seddon,of the University of Otago in New Zealand , said that although most tourist projects conformed to basic guidelines on land use and not scaring wildlife,their full impact was rarely considered. “Transmission of disease to wildlife,or subtle changes to wildlife health through disturbance of daily routines or increased stress levels may translate to lowered survival and breeding,”he said. Research at the University of Auckland has shown that dolphins become restless and overactive when many tourist boats are present. When three or more boats are near,the dolphins rest for 0.5 percent of the time, compared with 68 percent when they are accompanied by a single boat. The findings are backed up by studies of dolphins in Britain. Researchers at the University of Manitoba in Canada have found that male polar bears easily disturbed by tourist vehicles,with a possible effect on their heart rate and metabolism(新陈代谢). That could reduce body fat levels and fitness,critical for survival. In Africa,gorillas have picked up parasites introduced to their habitat by tourists and mongooses(蠓)have caught lung diseases from human beings. Experts said that the answer to the problems was better regulation and supervision of ecotourism. The Galapagos Islands,where visitor numbers are strictly controlled,is a good model. 41. Ecotourism is meant to . A. have tourists help in the conservation of wildlife B. have wild species respond well to contact with humans C. make wild species reduce stress and abnormal behaviour D. make conservationists more concerned with wildlife 42. According to New Scientist,many ecotourist projects . A. really encourage people to protect wildlife and its habitat B. strictly follow environmentally friendly policies C. actually lack proper examination and official approval D. seriously damage the habitats of endangered species 43. What will happen to wildlife ultimately if the present“ecotourism”practice goes on? A. It will disturb their life. B. It will affect their health. C. It will increase their stress. D. It will threaten their survival. 44. According to the passage,the growth in the global“ecotourism”industry . A. reflects an increasing concern for conservation B. arouses a growing concern for conservation C. coincides with a mounting concern for conservation D. originates from a greater concern for conservation 45. According to the passage,a solution to the“ecotourism”problem is to . A. encourage people to manage endangered species B. reduce the exposure of wildlife to human beings C. help wild animals increase their fitness D. prevent wildlife from catching human diseases Passage Four
Computers can beat chess champion Gary Kasparov at his game,count all the atoms in a nuclear explosion,and calculate complex figures in a fraction of a second, but they still fail at the slight differences in language translation. Artificial Intelligence computers have large amounts of memory , capable of storing huge translating dictionaries and extensive lists of grammar rules. Yet,today’s best computer language translators have just a 60 percent accuracy rate. Scientists are still unable to program the computer with human-like common sense reasoning power. Computer language translation is called Machine Translation,or MT. While not perfect,MT is surprisingly good. MT was designed to process dry,technical language that people find tedious to translate. Computers can translate basic phrases,such as“You foot bone’s connected to your ankle bone,your ankle bone’s connected to your leg bone.”They can translate more difficult phrases,such as“Which witch is which?”Computers can also accurately translate“Wild thing,you make my heart sing!” into other languages because they can understand individual words,as long as the words are pre-programmed in their dictionary. But highly sensitive types of translating , such as important diplomatic conversations , are beyond the scope of computer translating programs. Human translators use intuitional meaning,not logic,to process words and phrases into other languages. A human can properly translate the phrase,“The pen is in the pen (围养禽畜的圈),”because most humans know that it means that a writing instrument is in a small enclosed space. Many times,computers do not have the ability to determine in which way two identical words in one sentence are to be used. In addition to using massive rule-programmed machines,computer programmers are also trying to teach computers to learn how to think for themselves through the “experience”of translating. Even with these efforts,programmers admit that a “thinking”computer might not ever be invented in the future. 46. Computers today are capable of . A. defeating the best chess player in the world B. telling subtle differences between languages C. translating over 60 percent of difficult texts D. doing human-like common sense reasoning 47. According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true? A. Computers can translate dry and difficult phrases. B. Computers can understand sensitive language. C. Computers can translate technical language. D. Computers can understand pre-programmed words. 48. The major problem with computer translating programs is that computers . A. can not translate illogical sentences B. do not have a large enough capacity of memory C. can not understand grammatical rules D. do not have intuition to process language 49. To improve machine translation,computer programmers are trying to . A. use powerful rule-programmed computers B. teach computers to think by practice
