27、00）A.B.C.D.七、第三部分 阅读理解(总题数：0，分数：0.00)AIn this experiment, Robert Rosenthal and Lenore Jacobson studied the way that innocent subjects might be affected by another persons expectations. First, they gave an intelligence test to the entire student body at an unnamed primary school in the San Francisco
28、area. Then, they selected students at random(随便) and told their teachers that the students tests had shown that they were about to experience a period of rapid learning. Teachers did not change their methods or materials for teaching the selected students, but, at the end of the year, when the test
29、was administered (实施) again, first and second graders who had been selected had, in fact, gained twice as many IQ points as the other children. The experimenters concluded that they had performed better because they had been given more attention. Teachers had challenged them and had given them more
30、positive reinforcement because they had expected more from them.（分数：4.00）(1).What was tested in this experiment?A. The influence of IQ test.B. The influence of selected teachers.C.

The IQ test used in San Francisco schools should be changed.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.BJapan has a problem many other countries would envyits workforce works too
34、 hard. Curing Japanese workers of disease “workaholism“ is proving a difficult job, partly because many of them like work better than anybody else, experts say.Last month, the Japanese government passed a law for a 40-hour working week, down from 48 hours, to let people spend time away from the offi
35、ce or factory. But it could be many years before average work hours fall to the new level.In 1985, Japanese workers worked an average of 2 168 hours a year. But people in Britain worked 1 952 hours, the United States 1 924, West Germany 1 965 and France 1 643. Many Japanese workers work long hours n
36、ot only because of devotion and pleasure of the job, but also because of fear and inefficiency (无效，不称职).Many people feel that if they raked week off, they will lose touch with the business and fall behind other people. So they would rather stay at their desks. It is also considered bad form in many
37、offices to leave before the boss. So workers will sit at their desks pretending to be busy until their boss finally puts on his jacket and heads out the door.（分数：3.00）(1).According to the passage, Japan was facing a problem because many workers_.A. do not want to leave workB. fear their bossesC. wor
38、k inefficientlyD. take day off because of disease（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).“Workaholism“ is likely to happen when one_.A. loves ones work too muchB. has to de a very difficult jobC. works long hours in a placeD. suffers a lot at work（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The passage tells that in Japan_.A. the boss is usu
39、ally the last to leave the officeB. the boss is usually the first to leave the officeC. workers are busiest just before going homeD. workers are usually busier than the boss（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.Like all other mothers who have small children, I, too, have to steal time-from my own children at home and fr
40、om the children who know me as their teacher-just to put a few words down on paper. Many times Ive wanted to write for myself, for other women, for my parents, for my husband, and especially for my children. I would have liked to leave a legacy (遗产) of words explaining what it has meant to have twin
41、s (双胞胎). One reason there is not a great deal written about being a mother of a new baby is that there is seldom a moment to think of anything else but the babys needs.With twins, I did not have a spare hand to write with.Before my twins were born, my days were long and I had nothing to write about.
42、 After the twins birth I did have something to write about, but I found myself facing not a pen and paper but milk bottles.Some nights, friends would visit. They would leave at 11 p.m. , heading for bed, and for us the night was only just beginning. With twins, there is really no night. Each feeding
43、 lasts a long time. At 1: 00 a. m. , each of them would begin crying from hunger. At 4:00 a. m., when I finally put them down, I head for the kitchen and light a cigarette. I haven t smoked in almost a year, but I feel Ive never needed it more. Im so sleepy and so tired that I dont care.Two years ha
44、ve passed since then and weve managed to live through k ail. My days are still very full and even now there isnt one evening when I put the twins down for the night that I dont breathe a sigh of relief(松口气). At last a little time for myself.（分数：4.00）(1).What does the writer mainly write about?A. Her

46、ut the babies needs.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).When the writer says “I dont care“ ( paragraph 4 ), she means that she doesnt care about_.A. her babies any moreB. the time to go to bedC. the writing of her bookD. the possible effects of smoking（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Even when the twins were two years old, th
47、e only time the writer could find for herself was_.A. when her babies were asleepB. when the feeding was overC. when her friends leftD. when evening began（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.CIf an American is satisfied with you, he will put his thumb and forefinger into a circle. That means OK. But in Brazil, the very
48、 sign is considered to be rude. In Poland, a guest usually presents flowers to his hostess. The number must be an odd (奇数) one. Besides, the hostess isnt expected to remove the cover of the bunch of flowers. And usually, red rose is a sign of love.Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake ou
49、r heads to show disapproval. To our surprise these body movements mean the opposite in Bulgaria (保加利亚).The differences in customs and cultures in the world are really noticeable. We should learn more about them to avoid embarrassment (窘迫). Then, would you please remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.（分数：5.00）(1).In Poland, if a man gives some odd red roses to woman as a present, it means that heA. will invite her to a dinne
