27、ng Co(总题数：0，分数：0.00)六、Part A(总题数：0，分数：0.00)七、Text 1(总题数：1，分数：6.00)A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing. So, as a police officer, I have some urgent things to say to good people.Day after day my men and I struggle to hold back a tida
28、l wave of crime. Something has gone terribly wrong with our once-proud American way of life. It has happened in the area of values. A key ingredient disappearing, and I think I know what it is: accountability.Accountability isnt hard to define. It means that every person is responsible for his or he
29、r actions and liable for their consequences.Of the many values that hold civilization together-honesty, kindness, and so on-accountability may be the most important of all. Without it, there can be no respect, no trust, no law-and, ultimately, no society.My job as a police officer is to impose accou
30、ntability on people who rerun, or have never learned, to impose it on themselves. But as every policeman knows, external controls on peoples behavior are far less effective than internal restraints such as guilt, shame and embarrassment.Fortunately there are still communities-smaller towns, usually-
31、where schools maintain discipline and where parents hold up standards that proclaim: “In this family certain things are not tolerated-they simply are not done!“Yet more and more, especially in our larger cities and suburbs, these inner restraints are loosening. Your typical robber has gone. He consi
32、ders your property his property; he takes what he wants, including your life if you enrage him.The main cause of this break-down is a radical shift in attitudes. Thirty years ago, if a crime was committed, society was considered the victim. Now, in a shocking reversal, its the criminal who is consid
33、ered victimized: by his underprivileged upbringing, by the school that didnt teach him to read, by the church that failed to reach him with moral guidance, by the parents who didnt provide a stable home.I dont believe it. Many others in equally disadvantaged circumstances choose not to engage in cri
34、minal activities. If we free the criminal, even partly, from accountability, we become a society of endless excuses where no one accepts responsibility for anything.We in America desperately need more people who believe that the person who commits a crime is the one responsible for it.（分数：6.00）(1).W
35、hat the wise man said suggests that _.A. its unnecessary for good people to do anything in face of evilB. its certain that evil will prevail it good men do nothing about itC. its only natural for virtue to defeat evilD. its desirable for good men to keep away from evil（分数：1.20）A.B.C.D.(2).According
36、to the author, if a person is found guilty of a crime, _.A. society is to be held responsibilitiesB. modern civilization is responsible for itC. the criminal himself should bear the blameD. the standards of living should be improved（分数：1.20）A.B.C.D.(3).Compared with those in small towns, people in l

38、dardsC. todays society lacks sympathy for people in difficultyD. people in disadvantaged circumstances are engaged in criminal activities（分数：1.20）A.B.C.D.(5).The key point of the passage is that _.A. stricter discipline should be maintained in schools and familiesB. more good examples should be set
39、for people to followC. more restrictions should be imposed on peoples behaviorD. more people should accept the value of accountability（分数：1.20）A.B.C.D.八、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short
40、 a period of time challenges explanation.Language learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey“ spoken instructions some time before they can speak
41、though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make Io the
42、ir first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed hat they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few. months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these cannot be said to show the babys i
43、ntention to communicate they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire. This selfimitation leads on to deliberate imitation of soun
44、ds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.（分数：10.00）(1).By “. challenges explanation“ the author means that _.A. no explanation has been made up to nowB. no explanation is necessary
45、for such an obvious phenomenonC. its no easy job to provide an adequate explanationD. its high time that an explanation was provided（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The third paragraph is mainly about _.A. the difficulties of babies in learning to speakB. babies intention to communicateC. babies strong desire t
46、o communicateD. the development of babies early forms of language（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The authors purpose in writing the second paragraph is to show that children _.A. learn to speak by listeningB. are passive in the process of learning to speakC. are born cooperativeD. usually obey without asking q
47、uestions（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(4).From the passage we learn that _.A. children have various difficulties in learning to speakB. imitation plays an important role in learning to speakC. children show a strong desire to communicate by making noisesD. early starters can learn to speak within only six months
48、（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The best title for this passage would be _.A. Noise Making and Language LearningB. A Huge Task for ChildrenC. How Babies Learn to SpeakD. Early Forms of Language（分数：2.00）A.B.C.D.九、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：10.00)The United States became a rich industrial nation toward the end of the 1800s
49、. There were more goods, more services, more jobs, and a higher standard of living. There was more of everything, including problems. One problem was monopoly that is, be the only seller of a certain line of products or a service. In some cases, several companies that manufactured the same product would agree not to compete with one another. They would all agree to charge the same price. These arrangements made it impossible for customers to shop around for lower prices for certain pro
