16、ur 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.37 Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportsw

17、omen kills the essence of sport-the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still en joy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying him s

18、elf, he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nations hopes, dreams and reputation.A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the worlds most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention “Argentina“ to s

19、omeone and the chances are that hell think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup “put Argentina on the map“.Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Sco

20、ts sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinian really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillfu

21、ll at foot ball, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But its nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.37 What is the authors main purpose in the passage? _（A）To prove that football is the worlds most important sport（B） To show that

22、Argentina is better than all others（C） To compare Scotland with Argentina（D）To explain the role of sport38 In the second paragraph, the word “summit“ means _.（A）highest point（B） mountain top（C） award（D）summary39 According to the passage, Argentina is world-famous because of its _.（A）large number of

23、sports fans and supporters（B） successes in the football World Cup（C） obvious position on the map（D）excellence at most important sports40 According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will _.（A）fail to succeed（B） be successful（C） lose enjoyment（D）be irrational41 What is the a

25、s that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways42 It has been generally recognized that a youngsters social development has a profound effect on his academic progress. Children who have trouble getting along with their classmates can end up falling behind acade

26、mically as well and have a higher chance of dropping our of school than the other children. In the early grades especially, experts say, youngsters should be encouraged to work in groups rather than individually so that teachers can spot kids who may be having problems making friends. “When children

27、 work on a project,“ says Lillian Kate, an educational professor at the University of Illinois, “they learn to work together, to disagree, to think, to take turns and to lighten tensions. These skills cant be learned through teachers lectures in the class. We all know people who have wonderful techn

28、ical skills but dont have any social skills. Relationship should be the first important aspect that children should learn in and out of the school.“At a certain age, children are also learning to judge themselves in relation to others. For most children, their goals are not set by an internal clock

29、but by the outside world. Just as the 1-year-old kid struggling to walk, the 6-year-old is struggling to meet adult expectations. Young kids dont know how to distinguish early-childhood education. If they try hard to do something and fail, even for the first time, they may make the conclusion that t

30、hey will never be able to accomplish a particular task. “The effects are serious,“ says Kate. “A child who has had his confidence really damaged basically needs a rescue operation.“42 According to the author, kids who have poor relationship with classmates _.（A）would make the same achievements in a

31、course（B） would do poorly with his study（C） would develop his individualism and limit his intelligence（D）would eventually leave school43 The word “spot“ in the third sentence of the first paragraph most probably means _.（A）watch for（B） help with（C） teach individually（D）drop44 What does the second se

32、ntence of Paragraph 2 means?（A）It is society rather than individual that decides ones future.（B） They can meet the social needs by setting an internal clock.（C） To have good relationship with classmates is very important.（D）The outside world will decide peoples inner world.45 Which of the following

33、is most unlikely for the author to do, if he or she is a teacher?（A）To make friends with students who have mental problems.（B） To help students develop a feeling of self-confidence.（C） To announce a students poor scores in public.（D）To keep a student from playing alone.46 Which of the following is t

34、he best title of this passage?（A）Socialization and Feeling of Competence.（B） Individualism and Cooperation.（C） Intelligence and Respect.（D）Academic Success and Independent Thinking.47 Drivers on the Basingstoke by-pass used to have their attention diverted (转移) by a sign that read: A MOMENTS INATTEN

35、TION CAUSES ACCIDENTS. This self-defeating warning has now been removed, but its message is still very much to the point.Almost anything can cause an accident, Apart from momentary inattention, it might be a minor miscalculation, a sudden cough, an argument with the wife, falling asleep at the wheel

36、-all these make the difference between a tragic (悲剧的) hit and a lucky miss.Although human error plays its part, it is by no means the only cause of accidents. There must be some cause other than simple human error. Road construction plays its part: re searchers have found that it is not at the obvio

37、us danger spots- sharp comers, cross-roads, narrow lanes-that accidents happen. It is on those roads where there are subtle (细微的) visual traps, unexpected changes in the shape or surface of the road, or even insufficient or badly placed signs. Wherever there is a “black spot“, it means that somethin

38、g is seriously wrong with the road. Why else did the careless driving of so many come out at that particular spot?When you have an accident, you are required by law to stop accident only if1. somebody other than yourself in or outside your car has been injured.2. a vehicle not your own has been dama

39、ged.3. any horse, cow, donkey, sheep, or dog has been injured.It has been said that if a driver continues unaware of causing injury he must be charged. But the courts are careful about that excuse. Furthermore, the car owner himself must wait at the scene; it is not enough for him to leave his drive

40、r or a friend to attend to the boring formal procedures while he goes off on more important business.47 “A MOMENTS INATTENTION CAUSES ACCIDENTS“ (Line 2, Para. 1) is a self-defeating warning because _.（A）it tells drivers not to go fast（B） it will distract the drivers attention（C） it is too difficult

41、 to understand（D）it is too long to be read quickly48 What does the phrase “by no means“ (Line 1, Para. 3) mean?（A）without doubt（B） in no way（C） probably not（D）surely not49 “subtle visual traps“ (Line 4, Para. 3) refers to _.（A）places where the police hide in order to trap motorists（B） dangerous part

During the first few decades of the twentieth century, canned and other convenience foods fre

45、ed the family cook from full- time duty at the kitchen range. Then, in the 1940s, work in the wartime defense plants took more women out of the home than ever before, setting the pattern of the working wife and mother.Today about half of the countrys married women are employed outside the home. But,

46、 unless family members pitch in with food preparation, women are not fully liberated from that chore. Instead, many have become, in a sense, prisoners of the completely cooked convenience meals. Its easier to pick up a bucket of fried chicken on the way home from work or take the family out for pizz

47、as or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long, hard day.Also, the rising divorce rate means that there are more single working parents with children to feed. And many young adults and elderly people, as well as unmarried and divorced mature people, have been alon

It can be eaten in the cat - sometimes picked up at a d
