Each passage is followed by a number of comprehen

8、sion 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.20 Years ago, a cigarette commercial asked if you were smoking more, but enjoying it less. That describes the way many of us live today. We

9、 are doing more, but enjoying it less. And when that doesnt work, we get the problem. In our extremely hurried search for satisfaction, we try stuffing still more into our days, never realizing that we are taking the wrong approach.The truth is simple: so simple it is hard to believe. Satisfaction l

10、ies with less, not with more. Yet, we pursue the myth that this thing, or that activity, will somehow provide the satisfaction we so desperately seek.Arthur Lindman, in his very effective book, “The Harried Leisure Class, “ described the uselessness of pursuing more. His research focused on what peo

11、ple did with their leisure time. He found that as income rose, people bought more things to occupy their leisure time. But, i-ronically, the more things they bought, the less they valued any one of them. Carried to an extreme , he predicted massive boredom in the midst of tremendous variety. That wa

12、s more than twenty years-ago, and his prediction seems more accurate every year.Lindman of course, is not the first to discover this. The writer of Ecclesiastes expressed the same thought thousands of years ago. It is better, he wrote, to have less, but enjoy it more.If you would like to enjoy life

13、more, I challenge you to experiment with me. How could you simplify your life? What could you drop? What could you do without? What could you stop pursuing? What few things could you concentrate on?The more I learn, the more I realize that fullness of life does not depend on things. The more I give

14、up, the more I seem to gain. But words will never convince you. You must try it for yourself.21 Lindman wrote his book_.（A）ten years ago（B） twenty years ago（C） more than twenty years ago（D）thousands of years ago22 We can make our life happier if we_.（A）get rid of useless things（B） buy more things（C）

15、 sell things we do not need（D）give up more23 The best title for the passage is_.（A）Simplify Your Life（B） Enjoy Your Life（C） Smoking Less（D）Satisfaction24 Arthur Lindman wrote_.（A）a popular novel（B） a research paper（C） Ecclesiastes（D）The Harried Leisure Class24 The year 2000 will bring big changes in

16、 communication. Cell phones will be small enough to carry in your pocket. Videophones will let you see the person you are talking to on the phone. Tiny hand size computers will know your favorite subjects. The Internet and email will be everywhere. Technologists believe 2000 will be the year of vide

17、o messaging. You will be a-ble to see whom youre talking to.Also in the near future small wireless boxes will pick up information from satellites. In 5 years, computers wont need to be connected through wires.All of this will be good for rural areas and countries that dont have cable or telephone no

18、w.In 20 years you may only need to think about something and the computer will do it.Constance Hale is the author of Sin and Syntax, “ I believe that email has been an incredible boon to communication. People are writing today where they would have been telephoning yesterday. So people are engaging

19、with words more than they have for the last couple generations. “If people use email and the Internet more, it could make people better readers and writers. Some people think the most important part of communication is to make people understand each other better. Will technology make that easier?The

20、 translator also comes in handy in medical emergencies. Tam Dinh says, “ Where people are injured its always important to get as much information as quickly as possible. “Bob Parks is an Associate Editor of Wired Magazine, “ Bobs morning begins at about 6: 45 am. and Bob is kind of mad, because Bob

21、usually gets up at around 7 : 15 and likes to cut it close with his morning commute, but I look at my radio and it says that theres a traffic jam on 101 South and Im gonna need an extra 1/2 hour. And so my radio has got a net connection, wireless net connection as well as a good old power cord to th

22、e wall and it has received notice that theres a traffic jam and it has calculated an extra 1/2 hour commute time. “Some day everything may be connected to the Internet. Your refrigerator will add milk to your Internet grocery list when the date on the carton has passed. Light bulbs will be ordered b

23、efore they burn out.Its fun to try to guess the future. Usually the predictions are wrong. The one thing we know for sure is that we cant imagine how technology will change.25 How will wireless computers and Internet services help rural areas?（A）One of the biggest barriers to Internet use is getting

24、 wires into rural areas.（B） The wireless computers will be cheaper.（C） People in rural areas dont have anything else to do.（D）People in rural areas already have wireless boxes on their roofs.26 Constance Hale says “email has been an incredible boon to communication“.

27、28 The Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the world, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren. According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose. Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was su

28、pposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small children in 1719. However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this storyand doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person. They point out that the name is a direct translation of t

29、he French “ Mere F Oye. “ In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used. The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty“, “Cinderella“ and “Puss in Boots. “ But Perrault did not originate these stories: they were already quite popular in

30、 his day, and he only collected them.29 What is suppssed to have happened in 1719?（A）Elizabeth Vergoose wrote the first Mother Goose Stories.（B） Thomas Fleet published the Mother Goose Stories.（C） The Mother Goose Stories were translated into French.（D）Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goo

31、se Stories.30 Most scholars consider Mother Goose to be_.（A）a real person（B） a book written by a little old woman（C） a collection by Elizabeth Vergoose（D）a translation from French31 When Perrault published the first book in 1679, _.（A）no story of the book had been known to people（B） some stories of

32、the book were already well known（C） few people were interested in the stories of the book（D）stories like “Sleeping Beauty“ and “Cinderella“ became popular32 The name used in the first book published in 1679 is supposed to have been_.（A）Mother Goose（B） Mere F Oye（C） Elizabeth Vergoose（D）Charles Perra

33、ult32 In the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of differen

34、t kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the “ Lusitania“ , which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1, 500 live

35、s. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300, 000 or more. The ship lying on the seabed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about $ 1, 200, 000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He als

36、o hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $600, 000.33 Divers today try to bring to the surface_.（A）gold and jewels（B） parts of ships（C） whole ships（D）all of the above34 Divers try to bring up metals because_.（A）they have been in the sea for a long t

37、ime（B） gold and jewels are not valuable things（C） some kinds of metals are worth a lot of money（D）it is easy to bring up metals35 The word “surface“ in the passage means the_.（A）market（B） air（C） top of a liquid（D）sea36 John Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the parts of the “Lusitania“ for

38、 about_.（A）$12, 000（B） $300, 000 （C） $1, 200, 000（D）$1, 800, 00036 The idea of a fish being able to generate electricity strong enough to light lamp bulbsor even to run a small electric motoris almost unbelievable, but several kinds of fish are able to do this. Even more strangely, this curious powe

39、r has been acquired in different ways by fish belonging to very different families.Perhaps the best known are the electric rays, or torpedoes(电鱼), of which several kinds live in warm seas. They posses on each side of the head, behind the eyes, a large organ consisting of a number of hexagonal shaped

40、 cells rather like a honeycomb. The cells are filled with a jelly-like substance, and contain a series of flat electric plates. One side, the negative side, of each plate, is supplied with very fine nerves, connected with a main nerve coming from a special part of the brain. Current passes from the

41、upper, positive side of the organ downwards to the negative, lower side. Generally it is necessary to touch the fish in two places, completing the circuit, in order to receive a shock.The strength of this shock depends on the size of the fish, but newly born ones only about 5 centimeters across can

42、be made to light the bulb of a pocket flashlight for a few moments, while a fully grown torpedo gives a shock capable of knocking a man down, and, if suitable wires are connected, will operate a small electric motor for several minutes.Another famous example is the electric eel. This fish gives an e

43、ven more powerful shock. The system is different from that of the torpedo in that the electric plates run longitudinally(纵向)and are supplied with nerves from the spinal(脊骨)cord. Consequently, the current passes along the fish from head to tail. The electric or gans of these fish are really altered m

44、uscles and like all muscles are apt(likely)to tire, so they are not able to produce electricity for very long.The power of producing electricity may serve these fish both for defence and attack.37 It can be seen from the passage that_.（A）the torpedos electric cells have a shape with six sides（B） som

45、e fish can produce enough electricity to drive a number of electric motors（C） the current travels in an upward direction from the positive side to negative side in torpedos electric cells（D）the capacity to generate electricity is the distinctive characteristic of the fish38 Usually you will not get

46、a shock by touching the electric ray in one place only because _.（A）a torpedos electric cells contain more than one electric plates（B） to complete the circuit, you have to touch the fish in two places（C） the current in one place is not strong enough to give a shock（D）the fishs electric cells are fil

47、led with jelly-like substance39 The main idea of the third paragraph is that_.（A）the mass of the fish decides the intensity of electric power it generates（B） the strength of shock given by a young electric ray can only light the bulb of a pocket flashlight（C） to make full use of the energy produced

48、by electric fish, suitable wires should be available（D）a mature torpedo is capable of producing enough electricity to knock down a man40 The reason why the electric eel is able to give more powerful shock is that_.（A）compared with those in the torpedo, the working system of electric plates in the ee

49、l is more direct and efficient（B） compared with other electric fish, the eel possesses much more electric plates（C） the working system of the electric plates in the eel is far inferior to those in the torpedo（D）the working system of the electric plates in the eel is the most effective四、Part IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages. For each blank there are four choices marke
