IV. Reading Comprehension

Directions: Choose the ONE best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.

Passage One

What exactly is an economic system? Simply put, it’s a basic set of rules used to allocate a society’s resources to satisfy its citizens’ needs. Although every nation has a unique way of distributing resources, economic systems all have certain features in common and may be measured in similar ways.

A society’s resources are referred to by economists as the factors of product ion. One factor of production, land, includes not only the real estate on the earth’s surface but also the minerals, timber, and water below. The second, labor, consists of the human resources used to produce goods and services. The third factor of production is capital, the machine, tools, and buildings used to produce good and services, as well as the money that buy resources. A fourth factor of production is embodied in people called entrepreneurs. They are the ones who develop new ways to use the other economic resources more efficiently. They acquire materials, employ workers, invest in capital goods, and engage in marketing activities. In some societies, entrepreneurs risk losing only their reputations or their positions if they fail. In our society, entrepreneurs like Jose de Santiago also risk losing their own personal resources. On the other hand, our entrepreneurs reap the benefits if they succeed; this possibility is what motivates them to take the risk of trying something new.

Although all economies rely on the same basic factors of production, not all are blessed with

the same quantity and quality of resources. North America is more fortunate than most of regions. We have a wealth of land and raw materials, an industrious and well-educated work force, a strong capital base, and an abundance of entrepreneurs. To a great extent, our prosperity derives from these plentiful resources.

1. An economic system can be described as .

A. a basic set of rules used to allocate resources to meet the needs of the people

A.they can use the other economic resources more efficiently

B.they can acquire materials, employ workers, invest in capital goods and engage in

marketing activities

C.they can reap the benefit if they succeed

D.they can win reputations or position if they succeed

4. Capitals, as a factor of production, includes .

A.goods and services produced by a company

B.buildings for people to live in

A. a large population

B.an entirely different economic system

C. a hard-working and well-educated work force

D. a unique way of distributing resources

Passage Two

Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and medieval worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become commonplace.

One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is a distraction to others. Examination of factors related to historical development of silent reading reveals that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.

The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy, and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of potential listeners declined, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud would cause distraction to other readers.

Towards the end of the century there was still considerable argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and periodicals for a specialized readership on the other.

By the end of the century students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and to use skills in reading them which were inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral readers. The social, cultural and technological changes in the country in the century had greatly altered what the term “reading” implied.

6. Why did people usually read aloud before the nineteenth century?

A.Few people would read for themselves, so those literate people read aloud to them.

B.Reading aloud was a mark of one’s literacy.

C.Silent reading was not prevailing at that time.

D.People read aloud for entertainment.

7. Which of the following statements is true about silent reading according to the passage?

A.Silent reading can not distract others’ attention.

B.Silent reading is more efficient than reading aloud.

C.The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century indicated an increase in the

number of libraries.

D.The fact that silent reading replaced the old practice of reading aloud shows that human

beings have made much progress in learning skills.

8. Educationists are still arguing about ________.

A.the values of different types of reading materials

B.whether books should be respected or not

C.whether newspapers can weaken our intellectual ability

D.whether the information on books and newspapers is reliable

9. The emergence of the mass media and of specialized periodicals indicated .

A.the change of readers’ attitudes

B.the diversity of readers’ interest

C.that printing techniques had greatly improved

D.the decline of the standard of literacy

10. What is the main purpose of this passage?

A.To point out we have greatly improved our reading methods

B.To explain how silent reading developed

C.To illustrate the advantages of silent reading over reading aloud

D.To criticize the mass media

Passage Three

France might be described as an “all-round” country, one that has achieved results of equal importance in many diverse branches of artistic and intellectual activity. Most of the great nations of Europe excel (胜过) in some special branch of art or of thought, Italy in the plastic arts, Germany in philosophy and music, England in poetry and the sciences. France, on the contrary, had produced philosophers, musicians, painters, and scientists, without any noticeable

specialization of her effort.

The French ideal has always been the man who has a good all-round knowledge better still, an all-round understanding; it is the ideal of general culture as opposed to specialization. This is the ideal reflected in the education France provides for her children. By studying this education we in England may learn a few things useful to ourselves even though, perhaps indeed because, the French system is very different from our own in its aims, its organization and its results. The French child, too, the raw material of this education, is unlike the English child and differences in the raw material may well account for differences in the processes employed.

The French child, boy or girl, gives one the impression of being intellectually more precocious than the product of the chillier English climate. This precocity is encouraged by his upbringing among adults, not in a nursery. English parents readily adapt their conversation to the child’s point of view and interest themsel ves more in his games and childish preoccupations. The English are, as regards national character, younger than the French, or, to put it another way, there is in England no deep division between the life of the child and that of the grown man. The art of talking to children in the kind of language they understand is so much an English art that most of the French children’s favorite books are translations from the English. French parents, on the other hand, do their best to develop the child’s intelligence as rapidly as possible. They have little patience with childish ideas even if they do not go so far as to look upon childhood as an unfortunate but necessary prelude (序言) to adult life. Not that they need to force the child, for he usually leads himself willingly to the process, and enjoys the effect of his unexpectedly clever remarks and of his keen judgment of men and things. It is not without significance that the French mother instead of appealing to the child’s heart by asking him to be good appeals to his reason by asking him to be wise. Reasonableness is looked for early in France, and the age of reason is fixed at seven years.

11. The author considers that France ________.

A.specialized in the ideal of general culture

B.favors the ideal of general culture

C.is a specialist country in spite of herself

D.cannot help being a specialist country

12. In comparing French and English education the author indicates that ______.

A. a great deal can be learnt by both countries

B.differences should not be looked for only in the methods

C.the French child needs far more training

D.the main differences are in the children

13. The passage suggests that the French child .

A.is as he is because of the climate

B.only associates with adults

C.is forced to behave like an adult

D.is not treated as a child

14. In Paragraph 3, what is said about books _________.

A.appears to be somewhat contradictory

B.is not in any sense a contradiction

C.suggests that French parents like English children’s books

D.suggests that French parents find these books educational

15. With what conclusion, regarding French mothers, is the reader left?

A.They are the most significant influence in their sons lives.

B.They equate goodness with reason.

C.They know how to appeal to what is best in their sons.

D.They identify wisdom with reasonableness.

Passage Four

In such a changing, complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs become complicated. Many of life’s problems which were solved by asking family members, friends or colleagues are beyond the capability of the extended family to resolve. Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are questions facing many people today.

In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since World War I. As families move away from their stable community, their friends of many years, their extended family relationships, the informal flow of information is cut off and with it the confidence that information will be available – when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable. The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciously learned.

Adding to social changes today is an enormous stockpile of information. The individual now has more information available than any generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming.

Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies which enables the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before. Computer technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files, and to program computers to locate specific information. Telecommunication development enables the sending of messages via television, radio, and very shortly, electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared world wide through teleconferencing (电视电话会议) and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.

In this world of change and complexity, the need for information is of greatest importance. Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems, the critical problems of their business, social and family life, will survive and succeed. “Knowledge is power” may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people.

16. The word “it” (Para. 2) most probably refers to _________,

A.the lack of stable communities

B.the breakdown of informal information channels

C.the increased mobility of families

D.the growing number of people moving from place to place

17. The main problem people may encounter today arises from the fact that

A.they have to learn new things consciously

B.they lack the confidence of securing reliable and trustworthy information

C.they have difficulty obtaining the needed information readily

D.they can hardly carry out casual communications with an extended family

18. Which of the following statements is NOT right according to the passage?

A.Some problems used to be settled by consulting the family members.

B.The way we learn things today is different from what it used to be.

C.Thanks to the development of technology individuals today enjoy more information than

any other generation.

D.Those who have got the latest information are bound to succeed.

19. From the passage we can infer that _________.

A.electronic mail will soon play a dominant role in transmitting messages

B.it will become more difficult for people to keep secrets in an information era

C.people will spend less time holding meetings or conferences

D.events will be reported on the spot mainly through satellites

20. We can learn from the last paragraph that _________.

A.it is necessary to obtain as much knowledge as possible

B.people should make the best use of the information accessible

C.we should realize the importance of accumulating information

D.it is of vital importance to acquire needed information efficiently

When Anthony Falzo, a conductor of a freight train, was thinking of what to do over the weekend, he never realized that an 1 was about to happen on the track. It was May 1, 1989. When Anthony and Rich, an engineer, were talking leisurely, they suddenly noticed some curious shape lying on the track ahead. It seemed to be some box or old rags. Yet all of a sudden, they realized it was two kids on the track. Rich threw on the 2 brake and pulled on the air-horn handle with all his 3 . But it might still be too late. Anthony 4 to the front of the 5 train, and saw the two little children sitting alongside the rail.

He had to struggle to keep his balance on the 7 , first-side stones alongside the track. The 8 he covered the two kids and 9 them away, the younger child was hit under the chin.

Unit 1 苏格拉底是古希腊哲学家,被誉为现代西方哲学的奠基人。他是一个谜一般的人物,人们主要通过后期的一些古典作家的叙述,尤其是他最著名的学生柏拉图的作品去了解他。苏格拉底以他对伦理学的贡献而闻名。他的教学法亦称为苏格拉底法,即通过提问和回答来激发批判性思维以及阐述观点。该方法在各种讨论中仍被普遍使用。他还在认识论和逻辑领域作出了重大而深远的贡献。他的思想和方法所带来的影响一直是后来的西方哲学的坚实基础。苏格拉底是古代哲学史上最丰富多彩的人物。他在他那个时代已威名远扬。虽然他未曾建立什么哲学体系,未曾设立什么学派,也未曾创立什么宗派,但他的名字很快就变得家喻户晓了。 Socrates was a classical Greek philosopher who is credited with laying the fundamentals (基础) of modern Western philosophy. He is a mysterious figure known chiefly through the accounts of later classical writers, especially the writings of his most famous student Plato. Socrates has become well known for his contribution to the field of ethics. His method of teaching, known as the Socratic Method, by asking and answering questions to stimulate critical thinking and to explain ideas remains a commonly used tool in a wide range of discussions. He also made important and lasting contributions to the field of epistemology (认识论) and logic, and the influence of his ideas and approach remains a strong foundation for Western philosophy that followed. Socrates was the most colorful figure in the history of ancient philosophy. His fame was widespread in his own time, and his name soon became a household word although he constructed no philosophical system, established no school, and founded no sect (宗派). 孔子是中国历史上著名的思想家、教育家,是儒家学派(Confucianism)的创始人,被尊称为古代的"圣人"(sage)。他的言论和生平活动记录在《论语》(The Analects)一书中。《论语》是中国古代文化的经典著作,对后来历代的思想家、文学家、政治家产生了很大影响。不研究《论语》,就不能真正把握中国几千年的传统文化。孔子的很多思想,尤其是其教育思想,对中国社会产生了深远的影响。在21世纪的今天,孔子的学说不仅受到中国人的重视,而且也越来越受到整个国际社会的重视。 Confucius was a great thinker and educator in Chinese history. He was the founder of Confucianism and was respectfully referred to as an ancient "sage". His words and life story were recorded in The Analects. An enduring classic of ancient Chinese culture, The Analects has had a great influence on the thinkers, writers, and statesmen that came after Confucius. Without studying this book, one could hardly truly understand the thousands-of-years' traditional Chinese culture. Much of Confucius' thought, especially his thought on education, has had a profound influence on Chinese society. In the 21st century, Confucian thought not only retains the attention of the Chinese, but it also wins an increasing attention from the international community. Unit 2 圣诞节是一个被广泛庆祝的文化节日,全世界有许许多多的人在1 2月2 5日庆祝这一节日。它是为了纪念耶稣基督的诞辰。该节日最早可追溯到公元3 3 6年。渐渐地,这一节日演变为一个既是宗教又是非宗教的节日,越来越多的非基督徒也庆祝圣诞节。如今,圣诞

Unit 1 1学习外语是我一生中最艰苦也是最有意义的经历之一。虽然时常遭遇挫折,但却非常有价值。 2我学外语的经历始于初中的第一堂英语课。老师很慈祥耐心,时常表扬学生。由于这种积极的教学方法,我踊跃回答各种问题,从不怕答错。两年中,我的成绩一直名列前茅。 3到了高中后,我渴望继续学习英语。然而,高中时的经历与以前大不相同。以前,老师对所有的学生都很耐心,而新老师则总是惩罚答错的学生。每当有谁回答错了,她就会用长教鞭指着我们,上下挥舞大喊:“错!错!错!”没有多久,我便不再渴望回答问题了。我不仅失去了回答问题的乐趣,而且根本就不想再用英语说半个字。 4好在这种情况没持续多久。到了大学,我了解到所有学生必须上英语课。与高中老师不。大学英语老师非常耐心和蔼,而且从来不带教鞭!不过情况却远不尽如人意。由于班大,每堂课能轮到我回答的问题寥寥无几。上了几周课后,我还发现许多同学的英语说得比我要好得多。我开始产生一种畏惧感。虽然原因与高中时不同,但我却又一次不敢开口了。看来我的英语水平要永远停步不前了。 5直到几年后我有机会参加远程英语课程,情况才有所改善。这种课程的媒介是一台电脑、一条电话线和一个调制解调器。我很快配齐了必要的设备并跟一个朋友学会了电脑操作技术,于是我每周用5到7天在网上的虚拟课堂里学习英语。 6网上学习并不比普通的课堂学习容易。它需要花许多的时间,需要学习者专心自律,以跟上课程进度。我尽力达到课程的最低要求,并按时完成作业。 7我随时随地都在学习。不管去哪里,我都随身携带一本袖珍字典和笔记本,笔记本上记着我遇到的生词。我学习中出过许多错,有时是令人尴尬的错误。有时我会因挫折而哭泣,有时甚至想放弃。但我从未因别的同学英语说得比我快而感到畏惧,因为在电脑屏幕上作出回答之前,我可以根据自己的需要花时间去琢磨自己的想法。突然有一天我发现自己什么都懂了,更重要的是,我说起英语来灵活自如。尽管我还是常常出错,还有很多东西要学,但我已尝到了刻苦学习的甜头。 8学习外语对我来说是非常艰辛的经历,但它又无比珍贵。它不仅使我懂得了艰苦努力的意义,而且让我了解了不同的文化,让我以一种全新的思维去看待事物。学习一门外语最令人兴奋的收获是我能与更多的人交流。与人交谈是我最喜欢的一项活动,新的语言使我能与陌生人交往,参与他们的谈话,并建立新的难以忘怀的友谊。由于我已能说英语,别人讲英语时我不再茫然不解了。我能够参与其中,并结交朋友。我能与人交流,并能够弥合我所说的语言和所处的文化与他们的语言和文化之间的鸿沟。 III. 1. rewarding 2. communicate 3. access 4. embarrassing 5. positive 6. commitment 7. virtual 8. benefits 9. minimum 10. opportunities IV. 1. up 2. into 3. from 4. with 5. to 6. up 7. of 8. in 9. for 10.with V. 1.G 2.B 3.E 4.I 5.H 6.K 7.M 8.O 9.F 10.C Sentence Structure VI. 1. Universities in the east are better equipped, while those in the west are relatively poor. 2. Allan Clark kept talking the price up, while Wilkinson kept knocking it down. 3. The husband spent all his money drinking, while his wife saved all hers for the family. 4. Some guests spoke pleasantly and behaved politely, while others wee insulting and impolite. 5. Outwardly Sara was friendly towards all those concerned, while inwardly she was angry. VII. 1. Not only did Mr. Smith learn the Chinese language, but he also bridged the gap between his culture and ours. 2. Not only did we learn the technology through the online course, but we also learned to communicate with friends in English. 3. Not only did we lose all our money, but we also came close to losing our lives.
