14、lent三、Part Reading Compr(总题数：0，分数：0.00)四、Passage 1(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Some psychologists(心理学家) maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one“s muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen t

15、o music with our bodies. You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert o

16、n the radio, he is attracted to direct the orchestra (乐队) even though he knows there is a good conductor on the job. Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The l

17、istener “feels“ himself into the music with more or less noticeable motions of his body. The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less noticeable.（分数：10.00）(1).Some psychologists think that th

18、inking is _.（分数：2.00）A.not a mental processB.more of a physical process than a mental actionC.a process that involves our entire bodiesD.a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain(2).The process of thinking and that of listening to music are similar in that _.（分数：2.00）A.both are mental

19、 actsB.muscles participate in both processesC.both processes are performed by the entire bodyD.we derive equal enjoyment from them(3).Few people are able to listen to familiar music without _.（分数：2.00）A.moving some part of their bodyB.stopping what they are doing to listenC.directing the orchestra p

20、laying itD.wishing that they could conduct music properly(4).The listener“s way of “feeling“ the music is _.（分数：2.00）A.the unnoticed motion of his musclesB.“participating“ in the performanceC.bending an ear to the musicD.being the conductor of the orchestra(5).According to the passage, muscle partic

21、ipation in the process of thinking is _.（分数：2.00）A.deliberateB.apparentC.indistinctD.impressive五、Passage 2(总题数：1，分数：10.00)It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions, the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our ha

22、bits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory. Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only “remembering“ things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involving any change in th

23、e way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat. Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physic

24、al objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words“ ready for instant use. An a

25、verage U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight. The use of words i

26、s the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person“s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, memory is considered to be _.（分数：2.00）A.the basis for decision making and problem solvingB.an ability to

27、store experiences for future useC.an intelligence typically possessed by human beingsD.the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words(2).The comparison made between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that _.（分数：2.00）A.the computer“s memory has a li

28、ttle bigger capacity than a teenager“sB.the computer“s memory capacity is much smaller that an adult human being“sC.the computer“s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenager“sD.both A and B(3).The whole passage implies that _.（分数：2.00）A.only human beings have problem-solving intelligenceB.

29、a person“s memory is different from a computer“s in every respectC.animals are able to solve only very simple problemsD.animals solve problems by instincts rather than intelligence(4).The phrase “ in terms of “ in the last sentence can best be replaced by _.（分数：2.00）A.“in connection with“B.“expresse

30、d by“C.“consisting“D.“by means of“(5).The topic of the passage is: _.（分数：2.00）A.What would life be like without memory?B.Memory is of vital importance to life.C.How is a person“s memory different from an animal“s or a computer“s?D.What is contained in memory?六、Passage 3(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Today anyone w

31、ill accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of others they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money. Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as mon

32、ey. One of the first kinds of money was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In some parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest kinds of money. Other animals were used as money, too. The

33、first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. People strung them together and carded them from place to place. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin. Sweden and Russia used

34、copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver. But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like a no

35、te from one person to another than paper money used today. Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following can be cited as an example of the use of money in exchange for services?（分数：2.00）A.To sell a bicycle for $20.B.To get some mon

My first job was to drive the oxen that plo

40、wed the cane fields. I would walk behind an ox, guiding him with a broomstick. For $1 a day, I worked eight hours straight, with no food breaks. It was very tedious work, but it prepared me for life and taught me many lasting lessons. Because the plantation owners were always watching us, I had to b

41、e on time every day and work as hard as I could. I“ve never been late for any job since. I also learned about being respectful and loyal to the people you work for. More important, I earned my pay. I was only six years old, but I was doing a man“s job. Our family needed every dollar we could make be

42、cause my father never earned more than $18 a week. Our home was a three-room wood shack with dirty floor and no toilet. Nothing made me prouder than bringing home money to help my mother, father, two brothers and three sisters. This gave me self-esteem, one of the most important things a person can

43、have. When I was seven, I got work at a golf course near our house. My job was to stand down the fairway and spot the balls as they landed so the golfers could find them. Losing a ball meant you were fired, so I never miss one. Some nights I would lie in bed and dream of making thousands of dollars

44、playing golf and being able to buy a bicycle. The more I dreamed, the more I thought. Why not? I made my first golf club out of guava limb and a piece of pipe. Then I hammered an empty tin can into the shape of a ball. And finally I dug two small holes in the ground and hit the ball back and forth.
