IV.Reading Comprehension (75 points)
Directions:There are five reading Passages in this part.Each passage is followed by five questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET I.
Passage One
Lisa is a good example of a student in shock.She is an attractive, intelligent twenty-year-old college junior at a state university. She was a straight-A student in high school and a member of basketball and volleyball teams there.Now,only three years later,Lisa is miserable.She has changed her major four times and is forced to hold down two part-time jobs in order to pay her tuition(学费).She suffers from sleeping and eating disorders and has no close friends.Sometimes she bursts out crying for no apparent reasons.
What is happening to Lisa happens to millions of college students each year. As a result, about one quarter of the student population at any time will suffer from symptoms (症状)of depression. Of that group, almost half will experience depression intense enough to call for professional help.But many reject that idea, because they don5t want people to think there's something wrong with them.
There are three reasons today's students are suffering more than in earlier generations. First is a weakening family support structure.Today, with high divorce rates and many parents experiencing their own psychological difficulties, the traditional family is not always available for guidance and support.
Another problem is financial pressure.In the last decade tuition costs have skyrocketed 一 up a- bout sixty-six percent at public colleges and ninety percent at private schools. At the same time there has been a cutback in federal aid to students. College loans are now much harder to obtain. Consequently ,most students must work at least part-time.
A final cause of student shock is the large selection of majors available.Because of the multitude (众多)and difficulty of choosing a major,college can prove a time of great indecision.Many students switch majors.As a result, it is becoming commonplace to take five or six years to get a degree.lt can be depressing for students to be faced with the added tuition costs.
31.Whafs the main idea of the text?
A.Going to college is a depressing experience for many students.
-3 -

Passage Two
Your mind like your body is a thing where the powers are developed by effort.This is a principal use, as I see it, of hard work in studies.Unless you train your body you can, t be a good sportsman, and unless you train your mind you can, t be much of a scholar. The four miles a boatman covers at top speed is in itself nothing to the good, but the physical capacity to hold out over the distance is thought to be of some value.So a good part of what you learn by hard study may not be retained forever ,and may not seem to be of much final value, but your mind is a better and more powerful instrument because you have learned it.u Knowledge is power, ” but still more the ability of acquiring and u- sing knowledge is power.If you have a trained and powerful mind, you are bound to have stored it with something, its value is more in what it can do, what it can grasp and use, than in what it contains ; and if it were possible, as it is not, to come out of college with a trained mind and nothing useful in it, you would still be ahead, and still, in a manner, educated.
36.The title that best expresses the main idea of this passage is .
A.Knowledge Is Power
B.How to Retain and Use Knowledge
C.Physical and Mental Efforts
D.The Trained Mind Is What One Needs
37.In his example the author tells his readers that .
A.it is important to build up one's physical capacity
B.it is no good having much physical training
C.it is more important to know one's capacity than to win the race
D.it is important to have physical training while one trains his mind
38.The author emphasizes that many of the facts you acquire by hard study .
A.deal with rules of health
B.will be forgotten
C.are of no value
D.will be very useful
39.The man leaving college with a trained mind .
A.is certain to succeed
B.is successful in his studies
C.is considered an educated person
D.can grasp any problem
40.After reading this passage, one gets to know that the author is .
A.praising the college education
B.helping change the college education
C.giving his advice to the college education
D.criticizing the college education
Passage Three
It would be difficult to have a society like ours without public goods such as defense, transportation ,and other services.
A public good is one that a person can use without reducing the use of it for another person. One of the best examples of a public good is national defense. One person can benefit from our national defense without reducing another person' s benefits. In fact, it is difficult to keep any person in our society from enjoying the benefits of national defense.
The market system does not work well in producing public goods. This is because a person who refuses to pay for a public good cannot be kept from using it. Suppose that the neighbors in a high crime area decide to hire a police force. Each neighbor, except Mrs. Smith, agrees to pay $ 100 a year for it. Mrs. Smith refuses to pay because she knows that if all the others pay the $ 100,the police will guard the area anyway. So Mrs. Smith can enjoy the services of the police force without paying $ 100.
The market system has no way to deal with this type of problem. For this reason, we cannot ask each person to make a direct payment in the form of product price. Therefore, we collect money for public goods by using taxes.
41.According to the passage, public goods are .
A)services enjoyed by all people B ) what we can buy and sell in public
C ) products that we make for national defense D ) taxes paid by the people involved
42.The writer gives the example of national defense in paragraph 2 in order to show that .
A)there will be no safety if there is no national defense
B)all the people should be responsible for national defense
C)a public good is a shared benefit for the whole society
D)some public goods are more important than others
43.The person who does not pay for a public good .
A) keeps himself from using its benefits B ) cannot enjoy its benefits at any time
C ) fails to keep its benefits from being used D) enjoy its benefits all the same
44.In the third paragraph the author explains .
A)what role the market system plays in producing public goods
B)how weak the market system is in producing public goods
C)why some people refuse to pay for public goods
D)what we can do to make use of the market system
45.From the passage we learn that the purpose of collecting taxes is to .
A)ensure the continuous supply of public goods
B)reduce the difference between the rich and the poor
C ) get extra money to support public goods
D ) remind people of their duty
Passage Four
Even plants can run a fever, especially when they' re under attack by insects or disease.But un
like humans, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away straight up.A decade
ago, adapting the infrared (红夕卜线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress.The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide (杀虫齐!J) spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don' t have pest (害虫)problems.
Even better, Paley' s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye.Mounted on a plane flown at 3 ,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a color-code map showing where plants were runningu fevers. Farmers could then spot-spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.
The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984, after only three years. Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find.But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce, and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to get back into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works/4 This technique can be used on 75 percent of agricultural land in the United States”,says George Oerther of Texas A&M.Ray Jackson, who recently retired from the Department of Agricultrue, thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be a- dopted by the end of the decade.But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain 10 years ago.
46.Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are .
A.sprayed with pesticides B.in pour physical condition
C.facing an infrared scanner D.exposed to excessive sun rays
47.In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely, we can use infrared scanning to .
A.locate the problem areas B.drew a color-coded map
C.measure the size of the affected area D.estimate the damage to the crops
48.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by .
A.transforming poisoned rain B.consulting infrared scanning experts
C.resorting to spot-spraying D.detecting crop problems at an early date
49.The application of infrared scanning technolgy to agriculture met with some difficulties due to
A.the lack of official support B.its high cost
C.its failure to help increase production D.the lack of financial support
50.Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of .
A.growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on crops
B.the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produce
C.the forceful promotion by the Department of Agriculture
D.fiill support from agricultural experts
Passage Five
Reading is the key to school success and it takes practice. A child leams to walk by practicing until he no longer has to think about how to put one foot in front of the other. A great athletes practices until he can play quickly, accurately, without thinking. Tennis players call that “ being in the zone". Educators call itu automatically.
A child learns to read by sounding out the letters and decoding the words. With practice, he stumbles less and less. Then automatically, he doesn' t have to think about the meanings of the words, so he can concentrate on the meaning of the text.
It can begin as early as first grade. In a recent study of children in Illinois schools, Alan Rossman of Northwestern University found automatic readers in the first grade who were reading almost three times as fast as the other children and scoring twice as high on comprehension tests.
“ It' s not I. Q. but the amount of time a child spends reading that is the key to automaticity," according to Rossman. You can test your child by giving him a paragraph or two to read aloud——something unfamiliar but appropriate to his age. If he reads aloud with expression, with a sense of the meaning of the sentences, he probably is an automatic reader. If he reads haltingly, one word at a time, without expression or meaning, he needs more practice.
51.We can learn from the first paragraph .
A)what we should do to learn to walk B ) what automaticity is
C ) when a child begins to learn to walk D ) how we train an athlete
52.According to the second paragraph, a child can read automatically when .
A)he can sound out the letters
B)he begins to understand the meanings of the words
C)he stumbles less and less
D)he doesn' t have to think about the meanings of the words
53.Alan Rossman, s study shows that .
A)the automatic reader can read faster and score higher than other readers
B)the more difficult the reading passage ,the faster the automatic reader can read C ) the first grade students can read three times faster than those in higher grades D) no one can read faster than the first grade students
54.What is more important for one to become an automatic reader?
A)The amount of time he spends. B)The higher I. Q.
C)The lower I. Q. D) The ways in which he practices reading.
55.What should parents choose to test the automaticity of their child?
A)The story the child is familiar most. B)The passage full of new words.
C) The paragraph new and fit to him. D) The sentences he has not studied.
