9、 was reported of a tramp(流浪汉)who，apparently throu9h no fault of his own，found himself locked in a well-known chain store late on Christmas Eve. No doubt the store was crowded with last-minute Christmas shoppers. and the staff were dead beat and longing to get home. All the proper security checks wer

10、e made before the store was locked and they left to enjoy the three-day holiday untroubled by customers desperate to get last-minute Christmas presents. However that may be, our tramp found himself alone in the. store and decided to make the best of it. There was food, drink, bedding and camping equ

11、ipment, of which he made good use. There must a so have been- television sets and radios. Though it was not reported if he took advantage of these facilities, when the shop re-opened, he was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him. He seems to have been a man of good humor

12、and philosophic temperament-as indeed tramps very commonly are. Everyone else was enjoying Christmas, so he saw no good reason why he should not do the same. He submitted, cheerfully enough, to being taken away by the police. Perhaps he had had a better Christmas than usual. He was sent lo prison fo

13、r seven days. The judge awarded no compensation (赔偿)to the chain store for the food and drink our tramp had consumed. They had, in his opinion, already received valuable free publicity from the coverage the story received in the newspapers and on television.Perhaps the judge had had a good Christmas

14、 too.（分数：5.00）(1).The tramp was locked in the store _A. for his own mistakesB. due to a misunderstandingC. by accidentD. through an error of judgment（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The phrase “dead beat“ most probably means _A. half asleepB. exhausted C. angry D. forgetful（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).What action did t

15、he tramp take when he was trapped in the store?A. He robbed the store.B. He made himself at home.C. He went to sleep for two days.D.

The store had profited by the incident.C. The tramp deserved a happy Christmas.D. The store was responsible for what had happened.（分数：1.

17、00）A.B.C.D.Efforts to educate people about the risks of subs lance abuse seem to deter some people from using -dangerous substances, if such efforts are realistic about what is genuinely dangerous and what is not. Observed declines in the use of such drugs as LSD, PCP, and Quaaludes since the early

18、1970s are probably related to increased awareness of the risks of their use, and some of this- awareness was the result of warnings about these drugs in “underground“ papers read by drug users. Such sources are influential, because they do not give a simple “all drugs are terrible for you“ message.

19、Drug users know there are big variations in danger among drugs and antidrug education that ignores or denies this is likely to be ridiculed. This is illustrated by the popularity among young marijuana users of Reefer Madness, a widely unrealistic propaganda film against marijuana made in the 1930s.

20、This film made the rounds of college campuses in the 1970s and joined rock-music videos on cable televisions MTV in the 1980s. Instead of deterring marijuana use, it became a cult film among users, many of whom got high to watch it. Although persuasion can work for some people if it is balanced and

21、reasonable, other people seem immune to the most reasoned education a efforts. Millions have started smoking even though the considerable health risks of smoking have been well known and publicized for years. Moreover, the usefulness of education lies in primary prevention: prevention of abuse among

22、 those who presently have no problems. Hence, Bomiers (1978) contention that “if the Pepsi generation can be persuaded to drink pop wine, they can be persuaded not to drink it while driving“ is probably not correct, since most drunken driving is done by people who already have significant drinking p

23、roblems, and hence seem not to be dissuaded even by much stronger measures such as loss of a drivers license.（分数：5.00）(1).According to the passage, up. to now, antidrug education _A. has made all people see the danger of drugsB. has succeeded in dissuading people from using drugsC. has been effectiv

24、e only to a certain degreeD. has proved to be a total failure（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The film “Reefer Madness“ mentioned in the passage _A. effectively deterred marijuana useB. was rejected by young marijuana useC. did not picture the danger of marijuana realisticallyD. was welcomed by marijuana users

25、because it told them how to gel high（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The message “all drugs are terrible for you“ is not influential because _A. it ignores the fact that drugs vary greatly in dangerB. it gives a false account of the risks of drug useC. some drugs are good for healthD. it does not appear in unde

26、rground papers（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Even balanced and reasonable antidrug persuasion is influential only. to some people.B. Most drug users are ignorant of the danger of drugsC. Punishments such as loss of drivers license do n

27、ot seem to be an- effective way to stop drunken driving.D. Primary prevenlion is a useful principle to be followed in antidrug educalion（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The best title for the passage would be _A. Are All Drugs Terrible for You?B. Do People Believe What Underground Papers Say?C. Is There an Incr

28、eased Awareness of the Risks of Drugs?D. Can Persuasion Reduce Drug Abuse?（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.The inhabitants of the earth are divided not only by race, nation, religion or ideology, but also, in a sense, by their position in time. Examining-the present population of I he globe, we find a tiny group wh

29、o still live, hunting and food-foraging, as men did millennia ago.Others, the vast majority of mankind, depend no I on bear-hunting or berry-picking, but on agriculture. They live, in many respects, as their ancestors did centuries ago. These two groups taken together compose perhaps 70 percent of a

30、ll living human beings. They are people of the past.By contrast, somewhat more than 25 percent of the earths population can be found in the industrialized societies. They lead modern lives. They are products of the first half of the twentieth century, molded by mechanization and mass education, brou

31、ght up with lingering memories of their own countrys agricultural past. They are, in effect, the people of the present.The remaining 2 or 3 percent of the worlds population, however, are no longer people of either the past or the present. For within the main canters of technological and cultural cha

32、nge, in Santa Monica, California and Can-, bridge, Massachusetts, in New York and London, and Tokyo, are millions of men and women who can already be said to be living the way of life of I he future. Trend makers often without being aware of it, they live today as millions will live tomorrow. And wh

33、ile they account for only a few percent of I lie global population today, they already form an international nation of the future in our midst. They are the advance agents of man, the earliest citizens of the world-wide super-industrial society now in the throes of birth.What makes them different fr

34、om the rest of mankind? Certainly, they are richer, better educated, more mobile than the majority of I he human race. They also live longer. But what specifically marks the people of the future is the fact that they are already caught up in a new, stepped-up pace of life. They “live faster“ than th

35、e people around them.（分数：5.00）(1).The main argument in this pa$ sage is that _A. a small percentage of the worlds population is already “living in I he future“B. the majority should say what the future will be likeC. the new “pace of life“ is actually nothing newD. however we live, we I must all fac

36、e an increased pace of life（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).According to the writer, 70% of all humans _A. live by hunting bears or picking berriesB. still tend to live in small groupsC. are engaged in agriculture, or depend on natural food supplies in natureD. lead lives totally differ enl from their ancestors

37、（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The “people of (he present“, in I he writers u6e of the words, are I hose who _A. rely on their countrys agricultural pastB. spend their time examining different racesC. have been shaped by industrialization and mass educationD. are constantly trying to change life as they see i

38、t（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).From what the writer says, “tread makers“ are people who _A. live in large cities all over the worldB. dream about the FutureC. set I he pattern of life for the futureD. make changes in culture and technology（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The most important point about the “ 2 or 3 perce

39、nt“ is that they _A. have a better educationB. travel far and wide and generally live longerC. are trapped by their environ men I D. enjoy a faster pace of life（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. Its strident clamor

40、dominates our lives. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; plucks at our sleeves on the I escalator; signals to us from the roadside billboards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night. It has forced

41、 on us a whole new conception of the successful man as a man no less than 20% of whose mail consists of announcements of giant carpet sales.Advertising has been among Englands biggest growth industries since the war, in terms of the ratio of money earnings to demonstrable achievement. Why all this f

42、antastic expenditure?Perhaps the answer is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to thin I about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enoug

43、h without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and made the thing and leave it lo the advertiser to find eleven ways of making it appeal to purchasers afi1er they have finished it, by pretending that it confers

44、 status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness. If the advertising agency can do this authoritatively enough, the manufacturer is in cover.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one which goes on unchanged for ev

45、er.If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for - how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.（分数：5.00）(1).According to the passage modern advertising is “authoritat

46、ive“ because of I he way it _A. influences our image of the kind person we ought to be likeB. interferes with the privacy of home lifeC. continually forces us into buying thingsD. distracts us no matter where we travel（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).The form of advertising which has best succeeded in conferrin

47、g personal status on the individual makes use of_A. colored lights all nightB. roadside billboardsC. the postal serviceD. the wall space beside escalators（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Advertisers are appreciated by manufacturers because they _A. advise them on ways of giving a product customer-appeallB. acce

48、pt responsibility for giving a product customer-appealC. advise them on the best time to go ahead with productionsD. consult them during the design and development stages（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).According to the passage customers are attracted to a product because it appears to _A. have a sufficiently a

49、ttractive designB. offer good value for moneyC. fulfill the manufacturers claimsD. satisfy their personal needs（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The passage tells us that some manufacturers, instead of changing their product, would prefer-to change its _.A. product costB. qualityC. appealD. market value（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.三、Part Close(总题数：1，分数：10.00)For the past two years, I have been working on students evaluation of clas
