18、s but not by children20 Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that ones muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies. You surely are not surpr

19、ised 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 that is more or less familiar without moving their body or mom specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is te

20、mpted to direct the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent 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 listener “feels“ himself

21、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.21 Some psychologists maintain that thinking is _.（A）not a mental proce

22、ss（B） more of a physical process than a mental action（C） a process that involves our entire bodies（D）a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain22 Few people are able to listen to familiar music without _.（A）moving some part of their body（B） stopping what they are doing to listen（C） dir

23、ecting the orchestra playing it（D）wishing that they could conduct music properly23 Body movements are necessary in order for the listener to _.（A）hear the music（B） appreciate the music（C） enjoy the music fully（D）completely understand the music24 According to the selection, muscle participation in th

24、e process of thinking is _.（A）deliberate（B） obvious（C） not readily apparent（D）very pronounced25 The best title for this selection is _.（A）An Ear for Music（B） Music Appreciation（C） How Muscles Participate in Mental Acts（D）A Psychological Definition of the Thinking Process25 Adam Smith was the first p

25、erson to see the importance of the division of labor. He gave us an example of the process by which pins were made in England.“One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, and a fifth gives it a head. Just to make the head requires two or three different o

26、perations. The work of making pins is divided into about eighteen different operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them. “Ten men, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day

27、or about 4800 pins a worker. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not have made twenty pins in a day and not even one.There can be no doubt that division of labor is an efficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more

28、pins. Adam Smith saw this, but he also took it for granted that division of labor is itself responsible for economic growth and development and it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But division of labor adds nothing new, it only enables people to pro

29、duce more of what they already have.26 According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to _.（A）take advantage of the physical labor（B） introduce the division of labor into England（C） understand the effects of the division of labor（D）explain the bad causes of the division of labor27 Adam Sm

30、ith saw that the division of labor _.（A）enabled each worker to design pins more quickly（B） increased the possible output per worker（C） increased the number of people employed in factories（D）improved the quality of pins produced28 Adam Smith mentioned the number 4800 in order to _.（A）show the advanta

31、ges of the old labor system（B） stress how powerful the individual worker was（C） show the advantages of the division of labor（D）stress the importance of increased production29 According to the writer, Adam Smiths mistake was in believing that the division of labor _.（A）was an efficient way of organiz

32、ing work（B） was an important development in methods of production（C） finally led to economic development（D）increased the production of existing goods30 According to the writer, which one of the following is NOT true?（A）Division of labor can enable fewer people to make more pins.（B） Division of labor

33、 helps people to produce more of what they already have.（C） Division of labor is responsible for economic growth.（D）Division of labor is an efficient way of organizing work.三、Part III ClozeDirections: There are ten blanks in the following passage.
