三、 阅读理解 (共 8 题、0 / 32 分 ) 1、Hunger is nonovelty. We can discount legends of golden ages, lands of Cockayne, andMefgasthenes' statement that before Alexander's invasion of India, there hadnever been famine or food shortage there. Trustworthy historical records showthat during the Renaissance one year in ten in Britain, and one in five inEurope, was a famine year. China, with a greater area and more diverse climate,had a famine in some region every year. Famine is a state of affairs in whichpeople are dying in the streets. It therefore attracts the notice of historiansand is recorded. The fact that it strikes people who are aware of having beenproperly fed and well is more important. Not only are the survivors moreresilient, they are also angry at the breakdown of the system and eager to dosomething about it though it is obvious from the record that they do not alwayshave the means. Malnutrition is much more insidious. It is a chronic state inwhich the total food supply or, more often, the supply of certain componentssuch as protein or some of the vitamins, is inadequate. It seems probable that,either constantly or seasonally. It used to be the usual condition of mankindand was regarded as normal. The rickety appearance of the figures in medievalpaintings and drawings is often put down to the incompetence of the artist: itis as likely that most people really did look like that. The exuberance withwhich poets greeted the "merry month of May" may, in our dullclimate, have had a meteorological basis: it is just as likely that in May,after six months' shortage, there was now an adequate vitamin supply. Thepromptness with which some sailors succumbed to scurvy after leaving portsuggests that they were normally on the edge of scurvy and needed only a slightworsening of conditions to get it acutely. Others will think of other examples.Hunger and malnutrition are components, of a classic example of a viciouscycle. They lead to enfeeblement or apathy in which nothing either can be done,or seems to be worth doing, to alter the state of affairs; this leads to morehunger and malnutrition. There is good reason to think that, in much of thedeveloping world, if the cycle could once the broken, it would never return. 0、According to thetext, hunger in the past ____. A、occurred morefrequently in Britain than in the rest of Europe B、was less of aproblem than it is today C、was almost unknownin the Indian subcontinent D、was quite a regularoccurrence 参考答案：

0、What does the writersay about malnutrition?____ A、It was a commoncondition in the Middle Ages. B、It arouses a greatdeal of emotion and interest. C、It affected thecompetence of medieval artists. D、It is a more obviousproblem than famine. 参考答案：
0、The writer says thatmany sailors in the past succumbed rapidly to scurvy because ____. A、they did not haveenough to eat B、they were not usedto living at sea C、they were alreadysuffering from malnutrition D、they caught it fromother sailors 参考答案：

A、makes long-termprogress very difficult to achieve B、could be broken forgood if it were broken once C、has a significant effecton the developed countries D、could extend todeveloped countries in the future 参考答案： 2、 One of the most fascinating questions abouthuman behavior is each person is different from all others. The answer to thisquestion would explain the aspect of human nature called personality. Sometheories assume that inborn characteristics determine human personality. Manyobservers have hypothesized that each person has a dominant temperament,present from birth, that influences his or her behavior during an entirelifetime. According to one of these theories, people can be classified intofour basic types: sanguine, choleric, phlegmatic and melancholic. Each type ortemperament is characterized by a unique set of possible strengths and possibleweaknesses. Sanguine people are described as the mostoutgoing of the four temperaments. They are warm, fun-loving, and like thecompany of others. Because of these strengths, it is said that sanguines oftenmake good salesmen, actors, or public speakers. Sanguines, however, may havesome serious weaknesses. Their problems often come from their lack ofdiscipline. Easily distracted, they often lack the concentration to complete ajob or follow through on a promise. For this reason, other people may not trustthem. Choleric people, are quite different fromthe carefree, emotional sanguines. Because of their strong will, decisiveness,and productivity, cholerics are natural leaders who are good at making vastplans and motivating other people to help them carry out their plans. They areoften successful in business, industry, or politics. Choleric weaknesses can bevery damaging, however. Because a strong desire to lead, they can be cruel andcold toward those who do not wish to follow. They often do not listen to advicefrom others, and once they make a decision, they may become hostile towardanyone who questions that decision. Phlegmatics are calm, easygoing people whostrive for efficiency and organization. Very diplomatic and polite, they makepeople feel comfortable and generally help keep things running smoothly. Forthese reasons, they make good teachers, technicians, etc. Phlegmatics, however,often have weaknesses that keep them from becoming successful. Afraid to takechances, they may let opportunities go by. In fact, they may avoid taking anysteps to improve their position in life. Melancholics are often considered to begifted persons who possess creative talent. They are very analytical and ableto understand complicated processes and to note detail. These people can makegood doctors, scientists, artists, writers, and musicians. Melancholics arealso said to be loyal, idealistic and self-sacrificing. However, melancholicsfrequently make themselves miserable because they tend to be negative andcritical, and put up inflexible standards. They attach importance to everythingthey do, so they worry too much and see problems everywhere, and complain toomuch. They often become disappointed because neither they nor the people aroundthem can live up to their high standards. Explaining human personality in terms ofinnate temperaments is a theory that has not been generally accepted bypsychologists. They criticize it for being too simplistic and unscientific.This may be so; however, present-day psychologists have been unable toformulate a single theory. 0、The word"dominant" probably means ____.

4、Large companies needa way to reach the savings of the public. The same problem, on a smaller scale,faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create newjobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friendsand people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance,they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis forlong-term projects. So companies turn to the public, inviting people to lendthem money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in futureprofits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through theStock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the savings ofindividuals and institutions, both at home and overseas. When the saver needs his money back, hedoes not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. Instead,he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking toinvest his money. Many of the services needed both byindustry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by localauthorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railway, thiscountry could not function. All these require continuous spending on newequipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring moremoney than is raised through taxes alone. The Government, local authorities,and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money tofinance major capital spending, and they, too, come to the Stock Exchange. There is hardly a man or woman in thiscountry whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability ofhis or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way oranother this new money must come from the savings of the country. The StockExchange exists to provide a channel through which these savings can reachthose who need finance. 0、Almost all companiesinvolved in new production and development must ____. A、rely on their ownfinancial resources B、persuade the banksto provide long-term finance C、borrow large sum ofmoney from friends and people they know D、depend on thepopulation as a whole for finance 参考答案：
0、The money whichenables those companies to go ahead with their projects is ____. A、repaid to itsoriginal owners as soon as possible B、raised by theselling of shares in the companies C、exchanged forownership in The Stock Exchange Dinvested in different companies on TheStock Exchange 参考答案：
0、When the savers wanttheir money back they ____. A、ask another companyto obtain money for them B、look for otherpeople to borrow money from C、put their shares inthe company back on the market D、transfer their moneyto a more successful company 参考答案：
0、All the essentialservices on which we depend are ____. A、run by theGovernment or our local authorities B、in constant need offinancial support C、financed wholly byrates and taxes 参考答案：
D、unable to providefor the needs of the population 0、The Stock Exchangemakes it possible for the Government, local authorities and nationalizedindustries ____. A、to borrow as muchmoney as they wish B、to make certaineverybody saves money C、to raise money tofinance new development D、to make certaineverybody lends money to them 参考答案：
5、How much paper doyou use every year? Probably you can't answer that question quickly. In 1990the world's use of paper was about one kilogram for each person in a year. Nowsome countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person in a year.The amount of paper a country uses shows how far advanced the country is, somepeople say. It is difficult to say whether this is true: different people meandifferent things by the word 'advanced'. But countries like the United States,England and Sweden certainly use more paper than other countries. Paper, like many other things that we usetoday, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not verycommonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on papyrus. Europeansused Parchment for many hundreds of years. Parchment was very strong; it wasmade from the skin of. Certain young animals. We have learnt someof the most important facts of European history from records that were kept onparchment. The Chinese first made paper about 2000years ago. China still has pieces of paper which were made as long ago as that.But Chinese paper was not made from the wood of trees. It was made from thehair-like parts of certain plants. Paper was not made in southern Europe untilabout the year 1100. Scandinavia which now makes a great deal of the world'spaper, did not begin to make it until 1500. It was a German named Schaeffer whofound out that one could make the best paper from trees. After that, the forestcountries of Canada, Sweden, Norway Finland and the United States became themost important in papermaking. Today in Finland, which makes the best paper inthe world, the paper industry is the biggest in the land. New papermakingmachines are very big, and they make paper very fast. The biggest machines canmake a piece of paper 300 metres long and six metres wide in one minute. When we think of paper, we think ofnewspaper, books, letters, envelopes, and writing paper. But there are manyother uses. Only half of the paper that is made is used for books andnewspapers, etc. Paper is very good for keeping you warm.Houses are often insulated with paper. You have perhaps seen homeless menasleep on a large number of newspapers. They are insulating themselves againstthe cold. In Finland, where in winter it is sometimes - 40℃centigrade,the farmers wear paper boots in the snow. Nothing could be warmer. Each year, more and more things are made ofpaper. We have had paper cups, plates, and dishes for a long time. But now wehear that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper. With paper bootsand shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. Whenyou have used them once, you throw them away and buy new ones. The latest in paper seems to be paperhouses. These are not small houses for children to play in, but real, bighouses for people to live in. You can buy a house with three chief rooms, forabout $500. You can put it up yourself in a few hours, and you can use it forabout five years. People have made paper boats, but they havenot yet made paper aeroplanes or cars. Just wait - they probably will. 0、____use more paperthan other countries. A、China, England andSweden B、The United States,England and Finland C、The United States,England and Switzerland D、The United States,England and Sweden 参考答案：

6、No one really likeshelp. It is a great deal more satisfactory to be given the opportunity to earnone's daily bread; and if, by so doing, one can create a continuing means oflivelihood, more jobs, and better living conditions for one's community, thatis more satisfactory still. It is on this premise that the World Food Programmebases most of its operations. But how can a man born of unemployed,undernourished parents, in the depths of poverty that spreads the solidaritytowns near Latin American cities, or displaced people's camps in Africa and Asia,begin to make some improvement? Someone must help someone who understands thatboth food and employment are fundamental to his need. Most thinking people must have remarked atsome time or other that it doesn't make sense for half the population of theworld to be in need of better food while governments and farmers elsewhere areworried by surpluses. For a number of years, until recently, North America andAustralia had too much wheat. Japan had too much rice. Similarly, the EECrapidly built a butter "Mountain" in its short history. It was an awareness of the cruel paradox ofa world with surpluses and starvation that prompted the setting up of the WorldFood Programme by the United Nations and also by the Food and AgriculturalOrganization. Its organizers realized that it could be useful both to developedand developing countries. It could remove surpluses in such a way that did notupset normal trading or threaten the livelihood of farmers in contributorcountries, and then use these food to feed people and aid development inpoor-privileged areas. So how does the World Food Programme (WFP)work and what has it achieved? Logically, the story starts with a pledgingsession. The contributor countries, of which there have been a hundred and fourover the years, pledge themselves to give a certain value during the succeedingtwo years. Most of these pledges are honored by gifts of food, but countrieswhich do not produce food surplus to their own needs pledge money to financethe administration and shipping of the food given by other. Meanwhile, the WFP staff in Rome getrequests from countries which would like to receive this food aid. Some ofthese are emergency requests when earthquake, hurricane, flood, drought orpestilence strikes, or political disorder causes a new wave of refugees. Ofcourse, WFP responds to these, but they represent no more than a quarter of itsaid in any one year. The real objective is to aid constructive development, andso to make full preparation against the every day disaster of having littlefood to eat, no work to go to, no dignity to have. So the WFP staff are responsive to requestsfrom governments who want initial help to develop new lands for farming, tobuild roads, to provide irrigation, and so on. The government of the would-berecipient country has to put forward what is considered to be a worthwhile andworkable scheme, and if this is accepted, WFP agrees to supply food to acertain value for a specified period of years (usually three to five). Usuallythe food is for the people; sometimes it is their farm livestock. 0、The main idea of thefirst two paragraphs is that many people ____. A、feel offended bypeople who offer them gifts B、are prevented fromrising in the world by the poverty of their surroundings C、need to be givenboth food and the chance to earn their living D、feel their pridehurt if they are given charity 参考答案：

7、The appeal ofadvertising to buying motives can have both negative and positive effects.Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high pricebecause of an advertisement. For example, some advertisers have appealed topeople's desire for better fuel economy for their cars by advertisingautomotive products that improve gasoline mileage. Some of the products work.Others are worthless and a waste of consumers' money. Sometimes advertising is intentionallymisleading. A few years ago a brand of bread was offered to dieters（节食者) withthe message that there were fewer calories（热量单位，大卡) in everyslice. It turned out that the bread was not dietetic（适合于节食的), butjust regular bread. There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin,but there were the same number of calories in every loaf. On the positive side, emotional appeals mayrespond to a consumer's real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurancemay be sold by appealing to fear of loss. But fear of loss is the real reason forfire insurance. The security of knowing that property is protected by insurancemakes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment for most people.If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans as well as the messagein the ads, they will benefit from the advertising. Each consumer must evaluate her or his ownsituation. Are the benefits of the product important enough to justify buyingit? Advertising is intended to appeal to consumers, but it does not force themto buy the product. Consumers still control the final buying decision. 0、Advertising canpersuade the consumer to buy worthless products by ____. A、maintaining abalance between quality and price B、convincing him oftheir low price C、appealing to hisbuying motives D、stressing their highquality 参考答案：
0、The reason why thebread advertisement is misleading is that ____. A、the total number ofcalories in the loaf remained the same B、thin slices of breadcould contain more calories C、the loaf was cutinto regular slices D、the bread was notgenuine bread 参考答案：
0、The passage tells usthat ____. A、advertisementsoccasionally force consumers into buying things they don't need B、the buying motivesof consumers are controlled by advertisements C、sometimesadvertisements really sell what the consumer needs D、fire insurance isseldom a worthwhile investment 参考答案：
0、It can be inferredfrom the passage that a smart consumer should ____. A、be familiar withvarious advertising strategies B、think carefullyabout the benefits described in the advertisements C、guard against thedeceiving nature of advertisements D、avoid buyingproducts that have strong emotional appeal 参考答案：
0、The passage ismainly about ____. A、ways to protect theinterests of the consumer B、how to make a wisebuying decision C、the function ofadvertisements in promoting sales D、the positive andnegative aspects of advertising 参考答案：
8、Is language, likefood, a basic human need without which a child at a critical period of life canbe starved and damaged? Judging from the drastic experiment of Frederick II inthe thirteenth century it may be. Hoping to discover what language a childwould speak if he heard no mother tongue he told the nurses to keep silent. All the infants died before the first year.But clearly there was more than language deprivation here. What was missing wasgood mothering, in the first year of life especially, the capacity to surviveis seriously affected. Today no such drastic deprivation exists asthat ordered by Frederick. Nevertheless, some children are still backward inspeaking. Most often the reason for that is that the mother is insensitive tothe cues and signals of the infant, whose brain is programmed to mop uplanguage rapidly. There are critical times, it seems, when children learn morereadily. If these sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for acquiringskills passes, and they might never be learned so easily again. A bird learnsto sing and to fly rapidly at the right time, but finds the process slow andhard once the critical stage has passed. Linguists suggest that speech milestonesare reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age, but there are caseswhere speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be of highIQ (Intelligence Quotient). At twelve weeks a baby smiles and utters vowel-likesounds; at twelve months he can speak simple words and understand simplecommands; at eighteen months he has a vocabulary of three to fifty words. At threehe knows about words which he can put into sentences, and at four his languagediffers from that of his parents in style rather than grammar. Recent evidence suggests that all infantsare born with the capacity to speak. What is special about man's brain,compared with that of the monkey, is the complex system which enables a childto connect the sight and feel of, say, a teddy bear with the sound pattern"teddy-bear". And even more incredible is the young brain's abilityto pick out an order in language from the hubbub of sound around him, toanalyses, to combine and recombine the parts of a language in novel ways. But speech has to be triggered, and thisdepends on interaction between the mother and the child where the motherrecognizes the cues and signals in the child's babbling, clinging, grasping,crying, smiling, and responds to them. Insensitivity of the mother to thesesignals dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends outonly the obvious signal. Sensitivity to the child's non-verbal cues isessential to the growth and development of language. 0、Frederick II'sexperiment was "drastic" because ____.

0、The reason somechildren are backward in speaking today is that ____. A、they do not listencarefully to their mothers. B、their brains have toabsorb too much language at once C、their mother do notrespond to their attempt to speak D、their mothers arenot intelligent enough to help them 参考答案：
