Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)

Passage One

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

Suppose we built a robot (机器人) to explore the planet Mars. We provide the robot with seeing detectors to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times? No. The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to cease its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.

According to the evolutionary (进化的) theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The theory does not deny (否认) that sleep provides some important restorative functions. It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.

The evolutionary theory accounts well for differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little? Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do. But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep. Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value. Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival depends on their ability to run away from attackers.

21. The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us ________.

A) the differences between robots and men

B) the reason why men need to sleep

C) about the need for robots to save power

D) about the danger of men working at night

22. Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him ________.

A) maintain a regular pattern of life

B) prevent trouble that comes looking for him

C) avoid danger and inefficient labor

D) restore his bodily functions

23. According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we ________.

A) are worrying about our safety

B) are overworked

C) are in a tent

D) are away from home

24. Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats ________.

A) need more time for restoration

B) are unlikely to be attackers

C) are more active than horses when they are awake

D) spend less time eating to get enough energy

25. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage? ________.

A) Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and

waking.

B) The study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory.

C) Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots.

D) The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats.

Passage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

“Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it’s a girl.”

Fatherhood is going to have a different meaning and bring forth a different response from every man who hears these words. Some feel pride when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good father. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward to children for some time. For other couples,pregnancy (怀孕) was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.

Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this resocialization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of a father.

It is argued by some writers that the transition to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mother’s role. The mother’s role seems to require a complete trans formation in daily routine (生活规律) and highly innovative (创新的) adaptation, on the other hand, the father’s role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as

the breadwinner in the household.

26. According to the author, being a father ________.

A) brings a feeling of excitement to some men

B) has a different meaning for those who have daughters

C) makes some men feel proud and others uneasy

D) means nothing but more responsibilities

27. It is stated in the passage that ________.

A) some parents are not prepared to have a child

B) young couples do not like children at all

C) working couples do not have much time to take care of their children

D) many parents look forward to having a boy as their first child

28. In the second paragraph, the author ________.

A) criticizes fathers for not taking enough responsibilities in bringing up their

children

B) excuses the American writers for ignoring the difficulties of being a father

C) supports the idea that the chief role of a father is to earn money for the family

D) complains about the lack of social programs to help husbands adjust themselves

to being a father

29. The transition to the mother’s role requires that the wife ________.

A) change her life style in a highly innovative way

B) make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation

C) stay at home to take care of the baby

D) help her husband in his resocialization process

30. Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles, fathers, compared with

mothers, ________.

A) have to shoulder more burdens

B) have to make more difficult adaptations

C) have an easier job to do

D) can usually do a better job

Passage Three

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The

reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of these he puts further questions, and so on.

For most of the tim e this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.

Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehension which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.

There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a “process” conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies (策略) we employ in reading. If we are an advanced reader our ability to hold a process conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a content conversation. It is precisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.

31. Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becomes

conscious only when ________.

A) the reader’s expectations agree with what is said in the text

B) the reader has trouble understanding what the author says

C) the reader asks questions and gets answers

D) the reader understands a text very well

32. At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to ________.

A) read a text slowly

B) read without thinking hard

C) interpret a text in their own way

D) concentrate on the meaning of words only

33. A “process” conversation has to do with ________.

A) the application of reading strategies

B) matching our expectations with the meaning of a text

C) the development of our ability to check the details

D) determining the main idea of a text

34. According to the passage, it is of great importance for readers at a higher level to

maintain a balance between ________.

A) conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension

B) the reader’s expectations and the meaning of a text

C) lower and higher levels of comprehension

D) interpreting and criticizing a text

35. If we want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should ________.

A) learn to use different approaches in reading different texts

B) make our reading process more conscious

C) pay more attention to the content of a text

D) take a critical attitude towards the author’s idea

Passage Four

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

Although April did not bring us the rains we all hoped for, and although the Central Valley doesn’t generally experience the atmospheric sound and lightning that can accompany those rains, it’s still important for pa rents to be able to answer the youthful questions about thunder and lightning.

The reason these two wonders of nature are so difficult for many adults to explain to children is that they are not very well understood by adults themselves. For example, did you know that the lightning we see flashing down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earth? Our eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually the other way around. But then, if we believed only wha t we think we see, we’d still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night.

Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud, and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two cloud or between earth and a cloud. But, with about 2,000 th understorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night, there’s enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on earth every second.

Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them. When children understand that the light of the lightning flashing reaches their eyes almost at the same moment, but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile, they can begin to time the interval between the flash and the crash to learn how close they were to the actual spark.

36. According to the author, in the area of the Central Valley, ________.

A) rains usually come without thunder and lightning

B) it is usually dry in April

C) children pay no attention to natural phenomena

D) parents are not interested in thunder and lightning

37. We believe that lightning is a downward notion because ________.

A) we were taught so by our parents from our childhood

B) we are deceived by our sense of vision

C) it is a common natural phenomenon

D) it is a truth proved by science

38. What is TRUE about lightning according to the passage?

A) Only a small number of lightning flashes occur on earth.

B) Lightning travels 5 minutes faster than thunder.

C) Lightning flashes usually jump from one cloud to another.

D) There are far more lightning strikes occurring on earth than we imagine.

39. The word “activity” (Para. 3, Line 3) is most closely related to the word(s)

________.

A) “cloud”

B) “lightning strikes”

C) “lightning flashes”

D) “thunderstorms”

40. It can be concluded from the passage that ________.

A) we should not believe what we see or hear

B) things moving downward are more noticeable

C) people often have wrong concepts about ordinary phenomena

D) adults are not as good as children in observing certain natural phenomena

Small Schools Rising This year's list of the top 100 high schools shows that today, those with fewer students are flourishing. Fifty years ago, they were the latest thing in educational reform: big, modern, suburban high schools with students counted in the thousands. As baby boomers(二战后婴儿潮时期出生的人) came of high-school age, big schools promised economic efficiency. A greater choice of courses, and, of course, better football teams. Only years later did we understand the trade-offs this involved: the creation of excessive bureaucracies(官僚机构)，the difficulty of forging personal connections between teachers and students.SAT scores began dropping in 1963;today,on average,30% of students do not complete high school in four years, a figure that rises to 50% in poor urban neighborhoods. While the emphasis on teaching to higher, test-driven standards as set in No Child Left Behind resulted in significantly better performance in elementary(and some middle)schools, high schools for a variety of reasons seemed to have made little progress. Size isn't everything, but it does matter, and the past decade has seen a noticeable countertrend toward smaller schools. This has been due ,in part ,to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which has invested $1.8 billion in American high schools, helping to open about 1,000 small schools-most of them with about 400 kids each with an average enrollment of only 150 per grade, About 500 more are on the drawing board. Districts all over the country are taking notice, along with mayors in cities like New York, Chicago and

As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise. He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice. “It wasn’t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn’t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate’s “different” behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes. “I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,” Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.” Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions . Hire Advantage At a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult ,employers who can eliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinct advantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots . A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make .
