9、umber of different grey cards. These grey cards are of all possible shades of grey and include white and black. On each card a watch-glass is placed. The watch-glass on the blue card has some syrup(果汁) in it, all the others are empty. After a short time bees find the syrup, and they come for it agai

10、n and again. Then, after some hours, we take away the watch-glass of syrup which was on the blue card and put an empty one in its place.Now what do the bees do? They still go straight to the blue card, although there is no syrup there. They do not go to any of the grey cards, in spite of the fact th

11、at one of the grey cards is of exactly the same brightness as the blue card. Thus the bees do not mistake any shade of grey for blue. In this way we have proved that they do really see blue as a colour.We can find out in just the same way what other colours bees can see. It turns out that bees can s

12、ee various colours, but these insects differ from us as regards their colour-sense in two very interesting ways. Suppose we train bees to come to a red card, and, having done so, we put the red card on the table in the garden among the set of different grey cards. This time we find that the bees mis

13、take red for dark grey or black. They cannot distinguish between them. This means that red is not a cotour at all for bees; for them it is just dark grey or black.That is one strange fact; here is another. A rainbow is red on one edge, violet on the other. Outside the violet of the rainbow there is

14、another colour which we cannot see at all. This colour beyond the violet, invisible to us, is called the ultra-violet. Although it is invisible, we know that the ultra-violet is there because it affects a photographic plate. Now, although we are unable to see ultra-violet light, bees can do so; for

15、them ultra-violet is a colour. Thus bees see a colour which we cannot even imagine. This has been found out by training bees to come for syrup to various parts of a spectrum, or artificial rainbow, thrown by a prism on a table in a dark room. In such an experiment the insects can be taught to fly to

16、 the ultra-violet, which for us is just darkness.（分数：7.00）(1).The experiment with bees described in the first and second paragraphs tell us that bees regard blue as a colour.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(2).The third paragraph tells us that bees also regard red as a colour.（分数：1.00）A.RightB

17、.WrongC.Not mentioned(3).The experiment described in the second paragraph aimed to find out that bees are not able to see grey as a colour.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(4).An artificial rainbow was created for the experiment to see whether bees can recognize the ultra-violet as a colour.（分数

18、：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(5).The fourth paragraph tells us that bees may be harmed by ultra-violet light.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(6).We can conclude from the passage that bees recognize colours in the same way as human beings.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(7).Bees are

19、 more sensitive to colours than human beings.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned三、第 3部分：概括大意与完成句子(总题数：2，分数：8.00) A. Colorful life on the campus B. Intelligent student body C.

23、 for how medicine seeks to relieve dying patients of pain and suffering.Although it ruled that there is no constitutional right to physician-assisted suicide, the Court in effect supported the medical principle of “double effect“, a centuries-old moral principle holding that an action having two eff

24、ectsa good one that is intended and a harmful one that is foreseenis permissible if the actor intends only the good effect.Doctors have used that principle in recent years to justify using high doses of morphine to control terminally ill patients pain. even though increasing dosages will eventually

25、kill the patient.Nancy Dubler, director of Montefiore Medical Center, contends that the principle will shield doctors who “until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain if that might hasten death. “George Annas, chair of the

26、health law department at Boston University, maintains that, as long as a doctor prescribes a drug for a legitimate medical purpose, the doctor has done nothing illegal even if the patient uses the drug to hasten death. “Its like surgery, “ he says. “We dont call those deaths homicides because the do

27、ctors didnt intend to kill their patients, although they risked their death. If youre a physician, you can risk your patients suicide as long as you dont intend their suicide. “On another level, many in the medical community acknowledge that the assisted-suicide debate has been fueled in part by the

28、 despair of patients for whom modern medicine has prolonged the physical agony of dying.Just three weeks before the Courts ruling on physician-assisted suicide, the National Academy of Science (NAS) released a two-volume report, Approaching Death: Improving Care at the End of Life. It identifies the

29、 under-treatment of pain and the aggressive use of “ineffectual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the period of dying“ as the twin problems of end-of-life care. The profession is taking steps to require young doctors to train in hospices, to test knowledge of aggressiv

30、e pain management therapies, to develop a Medicare billing code for hospital-based care, and to develop new standards for assessing and treating pain at the end of life.Annas says lawyers can play a key role in insisting that these well-meaning medical initiatives translate into better care. “Large

31、numbers of physicians seem unconcerned with the pain their patients are needlessly and predictably suffering, “ to the extent that it constitutes “systematic patient abuse. “ He says medical licensing boards “must make it clear. that painful deaths are presumptively ones that are incompetently manag

32、ed and should result in license suspension. /（分数：15.00）(1).From the first three paragraphs, we learn that _.（分数：3.00）A.doctors used to increase drug dosages to control their patients painB.it is still illegal for doctors to help the dying end their livesC.the Supreme Court strongly opposes physician

34、rt ruled that high-dosage pain-relieving medication should be prescribed.D.A doctors medication is no longer justified by his intentions.(3).According to the NASs report, one of the problems in end-of-life care is _.（分数：3.00）A.prolonged medical proceduresB.inadequate treatment of painC.systematic dr

35、ug abuseD.insufficient hospital care(4).Which of the following best defines the word “aggressive“ (line 3, paragraph 7)?（分数：3.00）A.Bold.B.Harmful.C.Careless.D.Desperat(5).George Annas would probably agree that doctors should be punished if they _.（分数：3.00）A.manage their patients incompetentlyB.give

36、patients more medicine than neededC.reduce drug dosages for their patientsD.prolong the needless suffering of the patients六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)Department StoreA mainstay of retailing in the United States is the department store, a large-scale retailing instituting that has a very broad and deep prod

37、uct assortment (分类), tires not to compete on the basis of price, and provides a wide array or customer services.Traditional department stores offer a greater variety of merchandise and services than does any other type of retail store. They feature both “soft goods“such as apparel, sheets, towels, a

38、nd bedding (寝具)and “hard goods“ including furniture, appliances, and consumer electronics. Department stores also attractand satisfy consumers by offering many customer services.

39、aintain the manufacturers suggested retail prices. That is, department stores strive to charge“ full“ or “nondiscounted“ (不打折扣的) prices.Department stores face mounting problems, however, Largely due to their prime locations and customer services, their operation expenses are considerably higher than

40、 those of most other kinds of retail business. Many manufacturers brands that used to be available exclusively thorough department stores are now widely distributed and often carry discounted prices in other outlets. And the quality of personal service, especially knowledgeable sales help, has deter

41、iorated in some department stores.Intense horizontal competition is also hurting department stores. Other types of retailers are aiming at consumers who have long supported department stores.

44、lection of limited-line “superstores“.Some department stores are also trying to be more price-competitive.
