The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of these he puts further questions,

16、and so on.For most of the lime this “conversation“ goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced, ou

17、r questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The former represents a kind of comprehen

18、sion which is written in the text. The latter represents higher levels of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.There is another conversation which from our point of view is equally important, and that is to do not with what is read but with how it is

19、 read. We call this a “process“ conversation as opposed to a “content“ conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies(策略 ) we employ in reading. If we are advanced readers our ability to hold a content conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our abil

20、ity to hold a process conversation. It is precisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop our reading ability to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.11 Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becom

21、es conscious only when_.（A）the readers expectations agree with what is said in the text（B） the reader has trouble understanding what the author says（C） the reader asks questions and gets answers（D）the reader understands a text very well12 At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to_.（A）read a

22、 text slowly（B） read without thinking hard（C） interpret a text in their own way（D）concentrate on the meaning of words only13 A “process“ conversation has to do with _.（A）the application of reading strategies（B） matching our expectations with the meaning of a text（C） the development of our ability to

23、 check the details（D）determining the main idea of a text14 According to the passage, it is of great importance for readers at a higher level to maintain a balance between_.（A）conscious and unconscious levels of comprehension（B） the readers expectations and the meaning of a text（C） lower and higher l

24、evels of comprehension（D）interpreting and criticizing a text15 If we want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should_.（A）learn to use different approaches in reading different texts（B） make our reading process more conscious（C） pay more attention to the content of a text（D）take a

25、 critical attitude towards the authors ideas15 Suppose we built a robot to explore the planet Mars. We provide the robot with seeing detectors to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times? No. The robot would be using u

26、p energy at a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to cease its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning.According to the evolutionary(进化的) theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The th

27、eory does not deny(否认) that sleep provides some important restorative functions. It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into

28、; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent.The evolutionary theory accounts well for differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for i

29、nstance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little? Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do. But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep. Horses must spend almos

30、t all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value. Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival depends on their ability to run away from attackers.16 The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us_.（A

31、）the differences between robots and men（B） the reason why men need to sleep（C） about the need for robots to save power（D）about the danger of men working at night17 Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him（A）maintain a regular pattern of life（B） prevent trouble that comes lo

32、oking for him（C） avoid danger and inefficient labor（D）restore his bodily functions18 According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we_.（A）are worrying about our safety（B） are overworked（C） are in a tent（D）are away from home19 Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats _.（A）need mor

33、e time for restoration（B） are likely to be attackers（C） are more active than horses when they are awake（D）spend less time eating to get enough energy20 Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?（A）Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking.（B） The

34、 study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory.（C） Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots.（D）The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats.20 Museums are places where collections of objects are preserved and displa

35、yed. The objects may be anything found in nature or made by man. There are museums devoted to art. science, history, industry, and technology. But museums are no longer just storehouses for collections. Today nearly all museums, large or small, carry on educational programs. Museums offer guided tou

36、rs, lectures, films, music recitals, art lessons, and other attractions.Museums work constantly to improve their collections and ways of displaying them. All museums are always on the watch for new additions to their collections. Works of art are bought from art dealers and private collectors or auc

37、tion (拍卖) sales. Museums also accept gifts and bequests(遗物), but the large museums no longer accept everything that is offered to them. They accept only objects or collections that meet their high standards.What is to be gained from visiting museums? Museums exhibits can teach us about the world in

38、which we live_the materials it is made of, the trees and plants that cover it, and the animals that have lived on it since its beginning. We can learn about the activities of man_ his history and development and his accomplishments in arts and crafts.21 The first paragraph deals with_.（A）what museum
