Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.20

9、Banks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts: they rely on depositors(储户 )not to demand payment all at the same time. If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same

10、 day. If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts. However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it. Mrs. Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced. One day in December of 19

11、25 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs. Vaught lived. The other banks expected a run the next day, and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs. Vaught worked as a teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors. The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand. The nex

12、t morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside. The length of the line made many think that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone. People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers windows. The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers, thoug

13、h they knew that the bank was quite all right and could pay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank. Mrs. Vaught says that she had difficulty keeping herself from doing the same.21 A bank run happens when_.（A）a bank is closed for one or more days（B） too many depositors try to draw out the

14、ir money at one time（C） there is not enough money to pay all its depositors at one time（D）tellers of a bank take their own money from the bank22 The main cause of a bank run is_.（A）loss of confidence（B） lack of money（C） crowds of people（D）inexperienced tellers23 Which of the following did Mrs. Vaugh

15、t say?（A）She knew that the bank was not sound.（B） She feared that too many depositors drawing their money would close the bank.（C） She was not able to draw out her money.（D）She was tempted to draw out her money.24 According to the passage, the actions of the depositors of Mrs. Vaughts bank were affe

16、cted mainly by the _.（A）ease with which they could get their money（B） confidence that Mrs. Vaught showed（C） failure of several other banks to open（D）confidence shown by other depositors of the bank24 Copernicus was born in Torun, Poland, on February 19, 1473. Little is known about his early life exc

17、ept that his father died when he was 10. An uncle adopted him, his two sisters, and his brother. The uncle saw to it that the two boys received a good education. Copernicus went to the University of Cracow. There he studied such subjects as Latin, mathematics, and astronomy. It was probably at that

18、time that he changed his Polish name, Niklas Koppernigk, to the Latin form of Nicolaus Copernicus. In 1496 Copernicus went to Italy, where he spent the next 10 years studying at various universities.In Copernicus time people still believed that all thingsthe sun, the stars, and the planets moved aro

19、und the earth. It was an old belief that few men had ever questioned. Aristotle had based his theory of astronomy on this belief. Because the Church had long been the center of learning, the theory was also linked to religious beliefs.In 1506 Copernicus returned to his homeland. A few years later he

20、 began to work for the Church. All those years Copernicus carried on his work in astronomy. He had just the most basic equipment and, like other scientists of his day, made observations with only his eyes. Still, using mathematics and logic, Copernicus worked out a different theory, which held that

21、the planets went around the sun.Copernicus did not announce his ideas. He did not want to make trouble. But he could not hide the scientific truth. So he talked about his theory with his friends, who strongly advised him to have his work published. His great book, On the Revolutions of the Heavenly

22、Bodies, appeared at the very end of his life. Copernicus saw the first copy on the day he died, May 24, 1543.25 From the passage we can see that astronomy is _.（A）the life experience of great men（B） the movement of the stars and the planets（C） the scientific study of natural objects in space（D）the t

23、heories developed by scientists of old times26 Copernicus developed his theory_.（A）using various telescopes（B） based on Aristotles beliefs（C） through observations and reasoning（D）under the encouragement of his friends27 The writer of the passage wants us to know that_.（A）Copernicus did not tell abou

24、t his discovery until the day of his death（B） for many years Copernicus dared to do nothing openly against the Church（C） pushed by his friends Copernicus decided to write a book in May 1543（D）shortly before he got back to Poland Copernicus started to work for the Church28 Copernicus had his great bo

25、ok published because_.（A）he didnt agree with Aristotle（B） he could not hide the scientific truth（C） he worked for the Church（D）his friends advised him to do so28 In ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged in things that could be touched: food, tools, and precious metals and stones. Then the

26、barter system was replaced by coins, which still had real value since they were pieces of rare metal. Coins were followed by fiat money, paper notes that have value only because everyone agrees to accept them.Today electronic monetary systems are gradually being introduced that will transform money

27、into even less tangible forms, reducing it to a series of “bits and bytes“ , or units of computerized information, going between machines at the speed of light. Already, electronic fund transfer allows money to be instantly sent and received by different banks, companies, and countries through compu

28、ters and telecommunications devices.29 According to the passage, which of the following was the earliest kind of exchange of wealth?（A）Bartered goods.（B） Fiat money.（C） Coin currency.（D）Intangible forms.30 The author mentions food, tools and precious metals and stones together because they are all _

29、.（A）useful items（B） articles of value（C） difficult things to obtain（D）material objects31 According to the passage, coins once had real value as currency because they_.（A）represented a great improvement over barter（B） permitted easy transportation of wealth（C） were made of precious metals（D）could bec

30、ome collectors items32 Which of the following statements about computerized monetary systems is NOT supported by the passage?（A）They promote international trade.（B） They allow very rapid money transfers.（C） They are still limited to small transactions(交易 ).（D）They are dependent on good telecommunica

31、tions systems.32 There has been, in history, a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived to tell the tale. The mans name is James Bartley. The records to prove his unusual experience are in the British Admiralty.Bartley was making his first trip on the whaling ship Star of the East. Suddenly the lo

32、okout sighted a huge sperm whale. The whalers knew it was a huge whale by the size of the spray it blew into the air. They lowered their small boats. James Bartley was in the first longboat. The men rowed until they were close to the whale. A harpoon was thrown and it found its mark. It sank into th

33、e whales flesh. The maddened beast crashed into the boat, snapping its tail at the men and the wreckage of their boats. When the survivors were picked up, James Bartley was missing.Shortly before sunset, the whale was finally captured. The sailors tied the whales dead body to the side of the ship. B

34、ecause of the hot weather it was important that they cut up the whale right away. Otherwise, the meat would begin to rot and the oil would begin to spoil. When they got to the stomach, they felt something moving about wildly. They thought it would be a big fish still alive inside. But when they open

35、ed the stomach they found James Bartley. After this trip, Bartley settled in England, and never returned to sea.33 This passage is mainly about _.（A）how to hunt whales for their oil and meat（B） the hard and dangerous lives that whalers had to live（C） the duties of each man on a whaling ship（D）a man

36、who was swallowed by a whale and lived34 The sailors knew that something was in the whales stomach because_（A）they could feel it moving about wildly（B） the whale seemed very heavy（C） the whale was swelling at one spot（D）the captain heard Bartley yelling for help35 James Bartley probably never went t

37、o sea again because_.（A）he wanted different kinds of adventures（B） of fright and shock（C） he was crippled by the whale（D）he often got seasick36 The author, in telling James Bartleys story, informs us by _.（A）narrating the plain facts（B） referring to whaling in general（C） comparing whaling to other f

38、ishing（D）dramatically telling what happened36 This was no ordinary class. The students who came together were all science or engineering professors at Cornell University. They had interrupted their research to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual experiment:“ an interesting week of poetry

39、. “ This class was part of a study to answer the questions: Why is science difficult for many nonscience students? What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class that is not in their field?The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes. They had reading tasks and h

40、ad to write three short papers. All students noticed one thingthe importance of spoken words. In science and engineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard. But in this poetry class, the instructors just talked. They didnt write anything on the board.The scientists an

41、d engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry. In both subjects, students need to find layers(层次)of meaning. Some layers are simple, clear, and on the surface : other layers are deeper and more difficult. This search for different levels of meaning doesnt happen much in undergraduate

42、(本科)science classes, but it is important later, in graduate school. And it is always important in humanities(人文科学).Both the poetry instructors and their students learned something about teaching from this experience. One poetry instructor, for example, now sees the importance of using careful, clear

43、 definitions(定义)when he explains a poem. He also plans to be more informative as he teaches. Most of the scientists agreed on several points. First, humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and decide which information is important. Second, the poetry class was fun. One enginee

44、r decided, “We need to change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students. “But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this: All of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better.37 What do we know about this unusual

45、 class?（A）The teachers did lots of writing on the board.（B） The teachers were invited to attend several lectures.（C） The students were professors from a university.（D）The students were studying science and humanities.38 The experiment was designed to find out_.（A）how to teach the students in the sci

46、ence class（B） whether poetry is difficult for science students（C） what to be taught in the humanities class（D）why many humanities students find science hard39 Finding levels of meaning is_.（A）important for graduate students in humanities（B） difficult for graduate students in humanities（C） common for

47、 undergraduate students in science（D）easy for undergraduate students in science40 What did the science professors learn after the experiment?（A）They should change the way they teach.（B） A poem could be explained in clear definitions.（C） A poetry class could be more informative.（D）Their teaching was

48、an enjoyable experience.四、Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.
