Each passage is follow

9、ed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.（分数：8.00）_Public goods are those commodities from whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively excluded. Everybody

10、is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities, and one persons utilization does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else s enjoying the same good. Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect. A flood control dam is a public goods. Once the dam is built, all persons living i

11、n the area will benefitirrespective of their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam. The same holds true for highway signs or aids to navigation. Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from the utilization of the lighthouse for navigational p

12、urposes. National defense is another example. Even a person who voted against military expenditures or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded. It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefits associated with public goods. There is no practicable way of ch

13、arging drivers for looking at highway signs, sailors for watching a lighthouse, and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense. Because the market does not provide the necessary signals, economic analysis has to be substituted for the impersonal judgement of the marketplace.

14、（分数：8.00）(1).What does the passage mainly discuss?（分数：2.00）A.Mechanisms for safer navigation.B.The economic structure of the marketplace.C.A specific group of commodities.D.The advantages of lowering taxes.(2).Which of the following would NOT be an example of public goods as described in the passage

17、ed and then examples are given.We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?“ “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?“ When we

18、look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, its too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we dont really listen closely we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “Your

19、e a lucky dog.“ Thats being friendly. But “lucky dog“? Theres a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in the “dog“ puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesnt think you deserve your luck. “Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for

20、“ is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isnt important. Its telling you to think of all the starving people

21、 in the world when you havent got a date for Saturday night. How can you tell the real meaning behind someones words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and t

22、hink. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.（分数：8.00）(1).According to the author, the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that_.（分数：2.00）A.we fail to listen carefully when they talkB.people tend to be annoyed when we check wha

23、t they sayC.people usually state one thing but mean anotherD.we tend to doubt what our friends say(2).In the sentence “Maybe he doesnt see it himself“ in paragraph 2, the pronoun “it“ refers to_.（分数：2.00）A.being friendlyB.a bit of envyC.lucky dogD.your luck(3).When we listen to a person talking, the

24、 most important thing for us to do is to_.（分数：2.00）A.notice the way the person is talkingB.take a good look at the person talkingC.mind his tone, his posture and the look in his eyesD.examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner, his tone and his posture(4).The author most probably i

25、s a_.（分数：2.00）A.teacherB.psychologistC.philosopherD.doctorHave you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings (误解) ? Little wonder. We often believe were more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are, according to Boza Keysar, a professor at the University of Chi

26、cago. In his recent study, speakers tried to express their meanings using unclear sentences. Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the time. Heres some good advice to reduce misunderstanding: (1) Dont trust what you see from the listener. listeners often nod, look at you o

27、r say “uhhuh“ to be polite or move the conversation along. But its easy to consider these as signs of understanding. (2)Train the editor(编辑) in your head. If you say, “Beth discusses her problems with her husband,“ its not clear whether shes talking to her husband or about him. Try instead, “Beth ta

28、lks to her husband about her problems.“ or “Beth talks to others about the problems with her husband.“ (3) Ask listeners to repeat your message. Introduce your request by saying “I want to be sure I said that right.“ Questions like “How does that sound?“ or “Does that make sense?“ may also work. (4)

30、ng our normal lives.C.Misunderstanding occurs now and then.D.Its impolite to say NO to others.(2).The writer suggests that when talking to others, the speaker should_.（分数：2.00）A.know that listeners will show him that they understand his wordsB.express himself clearly even when he sees signs of under

31、standingC.notice listeners signs of understandingD.look directly into his listeners eyes(3).By Train the editor in your head, the speakers are advised_.（分数：2.00）A.to get themselves trained by a good editorB.to discuss problems with their husbands or wivesC.to express themselves in long but simple se
