For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice 35 Suicide has been a

19、cause of concern in most societies for a long time. The classical Greeks, for example, required people who wanted to kill themselves to get permission from the senate. While this law is not without humor by today s standards, it clearly shows an awareness of the problem in times gone by. In today s

20、society, suicide is much more prevalent than we want to admit. Why do people try to take their own lives? The motives for suicide can be categorized into areas such as failure, wrath, the need for attention, stress, and so on. However, the qualities of a person who wants to take his own life change

21、from person to person, making it difficult to depict (描写 ) the typical victim. To make the problem even more involved, people will often camouflage (掩盖 ) their true feelings, thus causing their friends to disregard problems that should be viewed as serious. In the U. S. , a network of centers has be

22、en created to attempt to prevent suicides. People who are bitter, worried, or depressed are encouraged to contact workers at these centers. These workers, often trained volunteers , offer benevolent advice to the callers, trying to help the callers to see that suicide as a solution to problems is an

23、 illusion. The accomplishments of these centers, in so far as their effectiveness to reduce suicide is concerned, are minimal. However, they have helped a lot of people with a variety of problems. So, in the some-what amorphous (难以名状的 ) area of man helping his fellow man, they are certainly a succes

24、s. 36 Which of the following arguments is TRUE according to the article? （ A） The classical Greeks did not know the existence of suicide. （ B） Suicide has always been prevalent in all parts of the world. （ C） In today s society, there are quite a number of people who commit suicide. （ D） Nowadays su

25、icide is not as common as it was in the past. 37 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a motive for suicide? （ A） Insanity. （ B） Pressure. （ C） The need for attention. （ D） Great anger. 38 Which of the following statements is NOT true? （ A） People who want to take their own lives often disguise

26、 their feelings. （ B） It is difficult to describe what kind of people tend to commit suicide. （ C） Suicide has been a problem in most cities since ancient times. （ D） People who commit suicide all share certain characteristics. 39 The word “benevolent“ (Line 3, Para. 3) means_. （ A） relevant （ B） ki

27、nd （ C） serious （ D） effective 40 The third paragraph mainly tells us that_. （ A） a network of centers has been quite effective in reducing suicide （ B） a network of centers help the callers to realize that suicide is a common social problem （ C） people are making efforts to help those who tend to c

28、ommit suicide and in a way, they are successful （ D） in the US, people who want to commit suicide call a network of centers to get help Task 2 Directions： This task is the same as Task 1 The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45 40 The human brain contains 10 thousand milli

29、on cells and each of these may have a thousand connections. Such enormous numbers used to discourage us and cause us to dismiss the possibility of making a machine with human-like ability, but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace we can be less sure. Quite soon, in only 10 or

30、 20 years perhaps, we will be able to assemble a machine as complex as the human brain, and if we can we will. It may then take us a long time to render it intelligent by loading in the right soft-ware(软件 ) or by altering the architecture but that too will happen. I think it is certain that in decad

31、es, not centuries, machines of silicon(硅 ) will arise first to rival and then exceed their human ancestors. Once they exceed us they will be capable of their own design. In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves. Silicon will have ended carbon s long control. And we will no longer be

32、 able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe. As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines through economies of scale we may use them to expand our frontiers, first on earth through their ability to withstand environments,

33、 harmful to ourselves. Thus, deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined. Further ahead, by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide, the construction of a vast, man-created world in space, home to thousands or millions of people, will be within

34、our power. 41 In what way can we make a machine intelligent? （ A） By making it work in such environments as deserts, oceans or space. （ B） By working hard for 10 or 20 years. （ C） By either properly programming it or changing its structure. （ D） By reproducing it. 42 What does the writer think about

35、 machines with human-like ability? （ A） He believes they will be useful to human beings. （ B） He believes that they will control us in the future. （ C） He is not quite sure in what way they may influence us. （ D） He doesnt consider the construction of such machines possible. 43 The word “carbon“ (Li

36、ne 3, Para. 2)stands for_. （ A） intelligent robots （ B） a chemical element （ C） an organic substance （ D） human beings 44 A robot can be used to expand our frontiers when_. （ A） its intelligence and cost are beyond question （ B） it is able to bear the rough environment （ C） it is made as complex as

37、the human brain （ D） its architecture is different from that of the present ones 45 It can be inferred from the passage that_. （ A） after the installation of a great number of cells and connections, robots will be capable of self-reproduction （ B） with the rapid development of technology, people hav

38、e come to realize the possibility of making a machine with human-like ability （ C） once we make a machine as complex as the human brain, it will possess intelligence （ D） robots will have control of the vast, man-made world in space Task 3 Directions： The following is a passage After reading it， you
