7、In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.15 Imagine you are a left-hander. Suddenly everythin

8、g in the world is changed. The door locks are on the wrong side of doors. The shift gear (变速器) in your car is in the wrong place. Handles on tin openers are on the wrong side and turn the wrong way.Twenty-five million Americans wake up every day in just such a sorry situation. They are one in ten of

9、 us who are left-handed and must face the world designed for the right-handed majority.Why we are left or right-handed remains one of the greatest unsolved mysteries of science. We know that nearly two out of three lefties are men and that left-handedness runs in families. According to one study alm

10、ost half of the children of two left-handed parents will be left-handed. The Scots-Irish family Kerr produced so many left-handers that in 1470 the family built its house stairway with a reverse twist.On the other hand, heredity (遗传) alone cannot explain lefties. At least 84 percent of them are born

11、 of two right-handed parents. And in 12 percent of twins, one will be right-handed, the other left.Perhaps the greatest puzzle of all is not why some people are left-handed, but rather why so few are. In fact, almost equal numbers of individuals will favour either the right or the left. However, sci

12、entists are trying to set things right and they are beginning to study the many ways left-handers differ from right-handers by considering how their brains work.16 How many of the Americans are left-handers?（A）10%.（B） 12%.（C） 50%.（D）84%. 17 Among the left handers, _.（A）few are men（B） most of them ar

14、e right. 19 In Paragraph 3, the word “runs“ (Line 2) means “ _“.（A）goes fast（B） spreads quickly（C） leaves（D）develops 20 Why so few people are left-handed _.（A）has nothing to do with heredity（B） is not known by scientists（C） has little to do with the working of their brains（D）is that left-handers are

15、 mainly twins 20 As heart disease continues to be the number-one killer in the United States, researchers have become increasingly interested in identifying the potential risk factors that trigger heart attacks. High-fat diets and “life in the fast track“ have long been known to contribute to the hi

16、gh incidence of heart failure. But according to new studies, the list of risk factors may be significantly longer and quite surprising.Heart failure, for example, appears to have seasonal and temporal patterns. A higher percentage of heart attacks occur in cold weather, and more people experience he

17、art failure on Monday than on any other day of the week. In addition, people are more susceptible to heart attacks in the first few hours after waking. Cardiologists first observed this morning phenomenon in the mid-1980, and have since discovered a number of possible causes. An early-morning rise i

18、n blood pressure, heart rate, and concentration of heart stimulating hormones, plus a reduction of blood flow to the heart, may all contribute to the higher incidence of heart attacks between the hours of 8:00 AM and 10:00 AM.In other studies, both birthdays and bachelorhood have been implicated as

19、risk factors. Statistics reveal that heart attack rates increase significantly for both females and males in the few days immediately preceding and following their birthdays. And unmarried men are more at risk for heart attacks than their married counterparts. Though stress is thought to be linked i

20、n some way to all of the aforementioned risk factors, intense research continues in the hope of further comprehending why and how heart failure is triggered.21 What does the passage mainly discuss?（A）Risk factors in heart attacks.（B） Seasonal and temporal patterns of heart attacks.（C） Cardiology in

21、the 1980s.（D）Diet and stress as factors in heart attacks. 22 The phrase “susceptible to“ in Para. 2 could best be replaced by“ _“.（A）aware of（B） affected by（C） accustomed（D）prone to 23 According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a possible cause of many heart attacks?（A）Decreased blood f

22、low to the heart.（B） Increased blood pressure.（C） Lower heart rate.（D）Increase in hormones. 24 Which of the following is NOT cited as a possible risk factor?（A）High in cholesterol.（B） Conjugal affection.（C） Eating fatty foods.（D）Being under stress. 25 Which of the following does the passage infer?（A

23、）We now fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks.（B） We recently began to study how risk factors trigger heart attacks.（C） We have not identified many risk factors associated with heart attacks.（D）We do not fully understand how risk factors trigger heart attacks. 25 Today, moving and

24、changing are as much a part of a modern business way of life as they are a part of the native Americans or the early pioneers way of life. And the trend is toward even greater mobility, particularly within the management sector of American business.In the early fifties, only eight or nine out of a h

25、undred young men changed their jobs within the first three years with the company. In the past few years, almost thirty-five percent of the college-graduated work force changed jobs within the same period. These people want to intensify their management training. Since most jobs take only a year to

26、a year and a half to master, in order to continue learning, they have to make a job change. Even company presidents tend to be seen as mobile specialists, staying with one company an average of only five years.Company presidents in the United States today tend to be young men who begin their careers

27、 with educational backgrounds in engineering science, or business management. They have worked for a few years as technical specialists and quickly moved into higher management positions. Most of them were making 30 000 per year by the time they reached thirty. On an average, these men have only twe

28、nty years working experience at management level when they become company presidents. On the way to the top, they have an average of eleven promotions and seven city transfers.Friendships remain casual and are usually derived from business contracts. Families of these career men have little time to

29、put down roots in and become part of a community.In the past, a few men attained high positions through family and social connections; today, high positions go to men who are mobile, and have good educational, backgrounds.26 According to the passage, an increasing number of future company presidents

30、 might be _.（A）people who have spent a number of years with one company（B） young people who do not want to move often, but are steady and dependable（C） people who have spent a long time concerned with community affairs（D）young people who have good education and are willing to move around 27 What is

34、ause they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only

35、 a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Wome

36、n who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion desig

37、ners are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability (耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasnt at some time

38、in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of womens cloth

39、es, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers.
