16、od detail.三、BSection Use o(总题数：1，分数：20.00)The speaker, a teacher from a community college, addressed a sympathetic audience. Heads nodded, in agreement when he said, “High school English teachers are not doing their jobs.“ He described the inadequacies of his students, all high school graduates who

17、can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how his grade 9 level had been established.My topic is not standards nor its decline. What the speaker was really U(26) /U is that he is no longer young; he has been U(27) /U for sixteen years, and i

18、s able to think and speak like a mature adult.My U(28) /U is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following U(29) /U is inevitable. It is also human nature to look for the reasons U(30) /U our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nine

19、teenth century, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language U(31) /U. But since then, English teachers have been under constant U(32) /U.The complainers think they have hit upon an U(33) /U idea. As their own command of the language U(34) /U, they notice that young people do not ha

20、ve this same ability. U(35) /U that their own ability has developed through the years, they U(36) /U the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this U(37) /U. To the eyes and ears of U(38) /U adults the language of the young always seems U(39) /U.Since this concern about the U(40) /U and

21、 fall of the English language is not U(41) /U as a generational phenomenon but rather as something new and U(42) /U to todays young people, it naturally U(43) /U that todays English teachers cannot be doing their jobs. U(44) /U, young people would not commit U(45) /U against the language.（分数：20.00）A

25、nglish, you may be Bulgarian or African. We are all human beings, but sometimes we have communication problems which can lead to suspicion and misunderstanding.If you speak English, you have an advantage. The English language means power and freedom to many. It dominates international relations. It

26、affects nearly all our lives in one way or another, influencing everything from pop music to diplomatic relations. Yet only around 10% of the worlds population are native English language speakers. Many of you who are reading now will have struggled to learn the grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation

27、 of this very complicated language. But there could be another solution: learning Esperanto.Esperanto, meaning “one who hopes“, is an artificial language which is said to be the earliest in the world to learn. It was invented in 1887 by Ludwig Zamnehof, a young Polish optician.The usefulness of Espe

28、ranto has been recognized the world over. It is now estimated that around eight million people in over 100 countries have at least some knowledge of it.In Esperanto, we have a language that is easy to learn and fair to all speakers because it belongs not to one nation but to us all. Many people, who

29、 have tried to learn other languages and failed, have succeeded in Esperanto because it is so easy. Although it is often seen as a joke and not as an important living language, it has been considered dangerous and governments are sometimes afraid of it.Your view of the world is largely based on the

30、language you speak. If you are French, you have a French view; if you are Chinese, you have a Chinese view, and so on. Peter Miles, a member of the Esperanto Translation Service in England, says that speaking Esperanto gives you a truly international view of the world. He regards himself as a citize

31、n of the world looking down from a satellite circling the earth, who is able to communicate with people all over the world in Esperanto. A nice thought!（分数：10.00）(1).What is the best title for the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Esperanto An artificial Language.B.Esperanto A Language for All.C.A Language Express

32、ing Peoples Dream.D.A Language Resulting From a Nice Thought.(2).Esperanto is _.（分数：2.00）A.often taken lightlyB.Zamnehofs mother tongueC.accepted by all peopleD.a favorite of some linguists(3).Implied but not directly stated is that _.（分数：2.00）A.Zamnehof hated RussianB.English is more difficult to l

33、earn than EsperantoC.Peter Miles is an astronautD.eight million people can speak Esperanto(4).Peter Miles is _.（分数：2.00）A.from the Esperanto Translation Service in BulgariaB.in charge of the Esperanto Translation Organization of BritainC.a member of the Esperanto Translation Service in BritainD.a me

34、mber of the Translation Service of Europe(5).The author speaks of Esperanto _.（分数：2.00）A.in an exaggerative wayB.in a subjective wayC.in a mysterious wayD.in a favorable way.BText 2/BAre some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experien

35、ce? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence

36、 less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a persons intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelli

37、gence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different.

38、 If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identica

39、l twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also s

40、uggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, if a child is born with low intelligence, he can _.（分数：2.00）A.never become a geniusB.exceed his intelli

41、gence limit in good surroundingsC.still become a genius if he should be given special educationD.not reach his intelligence limit in his life(2).The writer is in favor of the view that mans intelligence is given to him _.（分数：2.00）A.at birthB.through educationC.both at birth and through educationD.ne

42、ither at birth nor through education(3).In the second paragraph “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population “means“ if we _.“（分数：2.00）A.pick up any two personsB.choose two different personsC.take out two persons who are relativeD.choose two persons with different intelligence from

43、 each other(4).The example of the twins mentioned in the third paragraph shows the importance of _.（分数：2.00）A.the birthB.their intelligenceC.environment on intelligenceD.the university(5).The best title of this passage can be _.（分数：2.00）A.SurroundingsB.IntelligenceC.Effect of EducationD.Dependence o

44、n EnvironmentBText 3/BPeople from many countries find it difficult to understand how the majority of Americans live comfortable lives without the support of a public welfare system. Medical care in the United States is expensive; university education can cost 20,000 per year; living well after a wor

45、ker retires requires more money than will be paid through the Social Security System. Most Americans prepare for those needs by saving a part of their salaries in saving banks; others invest in industries or service corporations in hopes of receiving greater profits. Most Americans also buy insuranc

46、e of many kinds. In buying insurance, a working person agrees to pay a set sum of money every month or at other regular intervals. In exchange, he or she receives money when needed. Life insurance guarantees a sum of money to survivors of the person in case of death. Medical and hospital insurance g

47、uarantees payment of large medical and hospital bills. There is also dental insurance and insurance that pays money when a home burns down. An American can also insure a car, furniture or other personal belongings.Other benefits for working Americans are provided by the companies they work for or th

48、e labor unions to which they belong.All large businesses and many smaller ones offer their workers benefits. These benefits can include free or low-cost medical insurance and life insurance. Many companies also have retirement plans. The companies put money aside to pay their workers when they retire. There are also profit-sharing plans through which extra money is put aside for workers when the company makes a great deal of money in any one year.Many labor unions also have special funds from which workers can receive monthly checks when they retire or if they become disab
