14、ne-scoring ANSWER SHEET.（分数：10.00）_Lateral thinking(迂回思维), first described by Edward de Bone in 1967, is just a few years older than Edward s son. You might imagine that Caspar was raised to be an adventurous thinker, but the de Bone was so famous, Caspars parents worried that any time he would say

15、something bright at school, his teachers might snap, “Where do you get that idea from?“ “We had to be careful and not overdo it,“ Edward admits. Now Caspar is at Oxfordwhich once looked unlikely because he is also slightly dyslexic(诵读困难). In fact, when he was applying to Oxford, none of his school t

16、eachers thought he had a chance. “So then we did several thinking sessions,“ his father says, “using my techniques and, when he went up for the exam, he did extremely well. “ Soon after, Edward de Bone decided to write his latest book, Teach Your Child How to Think, in which he transforms the thinki

17、ng skills he developed for brainstorming businessmen into informal exercises for parents and children to share. Thinking is traditionally regarded as something executed in a logical sequence, and everybody knows that children arent very logical. So isnt it an uphill battle, trying to teach them to t

18、hink? “You know,“ Edward de Bone says, “if you examine peoples thinking, it is quite unusual to find faults of logic. But the faults of perception are huge! Often we think ineffectively because we take too limited a view. “ Teach Your Child How to Think offers lessons in perception improvement, of c

19、learly seeing the implications of something you are saying and of exploring the alternatives.（分数：10.00）(1).What is TRUE about Caspar?（分数：2.00）A.He is Edwards son.B.He is an adventurous thinker.C.He first described lateral thinking.D.He is often scolded by his teacher.(2).Caspar succeeded in applying

24、f years before the appearance of the electric light, shift work, all-night cable TV and the Internet, the Earths creatures evolved on a planet with predictable and reassuring 24-hour rhythms. Our biological clocks are set for this daily cycle. Simply put, our bodies want to sleep at night and be awa

25、ke during the day. Most women and men need between eight and eight and a half hours of sleep a night to function properly throughout their lives.(Contrary to popular belief, humans dont need less sleep as they age.) But on average, Americans sleep only about seven and a half hours per night, a marke

26、d drop from the nine hours they averaged in 1910. Whats worse, nearly one third of all Americans get less than six hours of sleep on a typical work night. For most people, thats not nearly enough. Finding ways to get more and better sleep can be a challenge. Scientists have identified more than 80 d

27、ifferent sleep disorders. Some sleeping disorders are genetic. But many problems are caused by staying up late and sleeping in, by traveling frequently between time zones or by working nights. Dr. James. F. Jones at National Jewish Medical and Research Center in Denver says that sleep disorders are

28、often diagnosed as other discomforts. About one third of the patients referred to him with possible chronic fatigue syndrome actually have treatable sleep disorders. “Before we do anything else, we look at their sleep,“ Jones says. Sleep experts say that most people would benefit from a good look at

29、 their sleep patterns. “My motto(座右铭)is Sleep defensivejy,“ says Mary Carskadon of Brown University. She says people need to carve out sufficient time to sleep, even if it means giving up other things. Sleep routineslike going to bed and getting up at the same time every dayare important. Pre-bedtim

30、e activities also make a difference. As with Elaner, who used to suffer from sleeplessness, a few lifestyle changesavoiding stimulants and late meals, exercising hours before bedtime, relaxing with a hot bathyield better sleep.（分数：10.00）(1).What is TRUE of human sleep?（分数：2.00）A.Most people need les

31、s sleep when they grow older.B.Most people need seven and a half hours of sleep every night.C.On average, people in the U. S. today sleep less per night than they used to.D.For most people, less than six hours of sleep on a typical work night is enough.(2).For our bodies to function properly, we sho

33、bedtime exercisesC.improper sleep patternsD.chronic fatigue syndrome(4).Which of the following measures can help you sleep better?（分数：2.00）A.Staying up late.B.Taking a hot bath.C.Having late meals.D.Traveling between time zones.(5).“Sleep defensively“ means that_.（分数：2.00）A.people should go to a doc

34、tor and have their problems diagnosedB.people should exercise immediately before going to bed every nightC.people should sacrifice other things to getting enough sleep if necessaryD.people should give up going to bed and getting up at the same time every dayThe media can impact current events. As a

35、graduate student at Berkeley in the 1960s, I remember experiencing the events related to the Peoples Park that were occurring on campus. Some of these events were given national media coverage in the press and on TV. I found it interesting to compare my impressions of what was going on with percepti

36、ons obtained from the news media. I could begin to see events of that time feed on news cover-age. This also provided me with some healthy insights into the distinctions between these realities. Electronic media are having a greater impact on the peoples lives every day. People gather more and more

37、of their impressions from representations. Television and telephone communications are linking people to a global village, or what one writer calls the electronic city. Consider the information that television brings into your home every day. Consider also the contact you have with others simply by

38、using telephone. These media extend your consciousness and your contact. For example, the video coverage of the 1989 San Francisco earthquake focused on “live action“ such as the fires or the rescue efforts. This gave the viewer the impression of total disaster. Television coverage of the Iraqi War

39、also developed an immediacy. CNN reported events as they happened. This coverage was distributed worldwide. Although most people were far away from these events, they developed some perception of these realities. In 1992, many people watched in horror as riots broke out on a sad Wednesday evening in

40、 Los Angeles, seemingly fed by video coverage from helicopters. This event was triggered by the verdict(裁定)in the Rodney King beating. We are now in an age where the public can have access to information that enables it to make its own judgments, and most people, who had seen the video of this beati

41、ng, could not understand how the jury(陪审团)was able to acquit(宣布无罪)the policemen involved. Media coverage of events as they occur also provides powerful feedback that influences events. This can have harmful results, as it seemed on that Wednesday night in Los Angeles. By Friday night the public got

42、to see Rodney King on television pleading, “Can we all get along?“ By Saturday, television seemed to provide positive feedback as the Los Angeles riot turned out into a rally for peace. The television showed thousands of people marching with banners and cleaning tools. Because of that, many more peo

43、ple turned out to join the peaceful event they saw unfolding(展开)on television. The real healing, of course, will take much longer, but electronic media will continue to be a part of that process.（分数：10.00）(1).The best title for the passage is_.（分数：2.00）A.The 1992 Los Angeles RiotsB.The Impact of Med

44、ia on Current EventsC.The 1989 San Francisco Earthquake and the 1992 Los Angeles RiotsD.How Media Cover Events(2).All the following statements are true EXCEPT that_.“（分数：2.00）A.electronic media can extend ones contact with the worldB.those living far away from a certain event can also have some perc

45、eption of realities by watching televisionC.all the events occurring on the university campus at Berkeley were given national media coverageD.video coverage of the 1989 San Francisco earthquake gave the viewers the impression of a total disaster(3).The term “electronic city“ in Paragraph 2 refers to

46、_.（分数：2.00）A.Los AngelesB.San FranciscoC.BerkeleyD.the Earth(4).The 1992 Los Angeles riots broke out because_.（分数：2.00）A.the jury acquitted the policemen who had beaten Rodney KingB.people can make their own judgmentsC.video coverage from helicopters had made people angryD.video coverage had provide

47、d powerful feedback(5).It can be inferred from the passage that_.（分数：2.00）A.media coverage of events as they occur can have either good or bad resultsB.most people who had seen the video of the Rodney King beating agree with the verdict of the juryC.the 1992 Los Angeles riots lasted a whole weekD.Ro

48、dney King seemed very angry when he appeared on television on FridayAt the Kyoto conference on global warming in December 1997, it became abundantly clear how complex it has become to work out international agreements relating to the environment because of economic concerns unique to each country. It is no longer enough to try to forbid certain activities or to reduce emissions of certain substances. The global challenges of the interlink between the environment and development increasingly bri
