Part II¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡Reading Comprehension¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡(35 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by
some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four
choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and
mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line
through the centre.
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
¡¡¡¡Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into
disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be
abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto
is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of
urban travel in the foreseeable future.
¡¡¡¡The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30
years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not
be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more
pollution-free than present types.
¡¡¡¡Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the
main problem in urbantraffic congestion (Óµ¼·). One proposed solution to this
problem is the automated highway system.
¡¡¡¡When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (¿ÉÉìËõµÄ) arm will
drop from the
auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering
subway trains electrically.
Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from
the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The
computer will then monitor all of the car's move-ments.
¡¡¡¡The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his
destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route,
and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the
highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer
(·äÃùÆ÷) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an
automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared
with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day
highway.
21. One significant improvement in the future car will probably be________.
¡¡¡¡A) its power source¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) its monitoring system
¡¡¡¡B) its driving system¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) its seating capacity
22. What is the author's main concern?
¡¡¡¡A) How to render automobiles pollution-free.
¡¡¡¡B) How to make smaller and safer automobiles.
¡¡¡¡C) How to solve the problem of traffic jams.
¡¡¡¡D) How to develop an automated subway system.
23. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?
¡¡¡¡A) A rail. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) A retractable arm.
¡¡¡¡B) An engine. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) A computer controller.
24. In an automated highway system, all the driver needs to do is _______.
¡¡¡¡A) keep in the right lane
¡¡¡¡B) wait to arrive at his destination
¡¡¡¡C) keep in constant touch with the computer center
¡¡¡¡D) inform the system of his destination by phone
25. What is the author's attitude toward the future of autos?
¡¡¡¡A) Enthusiastic.¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) Optimistic.
¡¡¡¡B) Pessimistic. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) Cautious.
Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
¡¡¡¡Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals
have long been
accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful
and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.
¡¡¡¡Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the
fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside,
with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding
horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter
shoots it.
¡¡¡¡People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a
special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of
behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most
hunters are wealthy.
¡¡¡¡It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox
hunting. But over the lastcouple of decades the number of people opposed to
fox hunting, because they think it is brutal (²Ð¿áµÄ), has risen sharply.
Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of
confrontation (³åÍ») between hunters and hunt saboteurs (×èÀ¹Õß). Sometimes
these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the
hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox's smell,
which the dogs follow.
¡¡¡¡Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common
that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes
itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat
to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is
trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting
of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like
foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.
26. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes
¡¡¡¡A) for recreation¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) to limit the fox population
¡¡¡¡B) in the interests of the farmers¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) to show of ftheir wealth
27. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?
¡¡¡¡A) It involves the use of a deadly poison.
¡¡¡¡B) It is a costly event which rarely occurs.
¡¡¡¡C) The hunters have set rules to follow.
¡¡¡¡D) The hunters have to go through strict training.
28. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game________.
¡¡¡¡A) by resorting to violence¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) by taking legal action
¡¡¡¡B) by confusing the fox hunters¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) by demonstrating on the scene
29. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to________.
¡¡¡¡A) prohibit farmers from hunting foxes
¡¡¡¡B) forbid hunting foxes with dogs
¡¡¡¡C) stop hunting wild animals in the countryside
¡¡¡¡D) prevent large-scale fox hunting
30. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
¡¡¡¡A) killing foxes with poison is illegal
¡¡¡¡B) limiting the fox population is unnecessary
¡¡¡¡C) hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violent
¡¡¡¡D) fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the rich
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
¡¡¡¡For an increasing number of students at American universities, Old is
suddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs.
Coupled with the aging of the baby-boom ( ÉúÓý¸ß·å) generation, a longer life
span means that the nation's elderly population is bound to expand
significantly over the next 50 years. By 2050, 25 percent of all Americans
will be older than 65, up from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses
profound questions for government and society, of course. But it also
creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law
and business as well. "In addition to the doctors, we're going to need more
sociologists, biologists, urban planners and specialized lawyers," says
Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern California's (USC)
School of Gerontology (ÀÏÄêѧ).
¡¡¡¡Lawyers can specialize in "elder law," which covers everything from
trusts and estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination (ÆçÊÓ).
Businessmen see huge opportunities in the elder market because the baby
boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of
retirees in human history. "Any student who combines an expert knowledge in
gerontology with, say, an MBA or law degree will have a license to print
money," one professor says.
¡¡¡¡Margarite Santos is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a
biology major but found she was "really bored with bacteria."So she took a
class in gerontology and discovered that she liked it. She says, "I did
volunteer work in retirement homes and it was very satisfying."
31. "¡ Old is suddenly in" (Line 1, Para. 1) most probably means"______".
¡¡¡¡A) America has suddenly become a nation of old people
¡¡¡¡B) gerontology has suddenly become popular
¡¡¡¡C) more elderly professors are found on American campuses
¡¡¡¡D) American colleges have realized the need of enrolling older students
32. With the aging of America, lawyers can benefit ______.
¡¡¡¡A) from the adoption of the "elder law"
¡¡¡¡B) from rendering special services to the elderly
¡¡¡¡C) by enriching their professional knowledge
¡¡¡¡D) by winning the trust of the elderly to promote their own interests
33. Why can businessmen make money in the emerging elder market?
¡¡¡¡A) Retirees are more generous in spending money.
¡¡¡¡B) They can employ more gerontologists.
¡¡¡¡C) The elderly possess an enormous purchasing power.
¡¡¡¡D) There are more elderly people working than before.
34. Who can make big money in the new century according to the passage?
¡¡¡¡A) Retirees who are business-minded.
¡¡¡¡B) The volunteer workers in retirement homes.
¡¡¡¡C) College graduates with an MBA or law degree.
¡¡¡¡D) Professionals with a good knowledge of gerontology.
35. It can be seen from the passage that the expansion of America's elderly
population ________.
¡¡¡¡A) will provide good job opportunities in many areas
¡¡¡¡B) will impose an unbearable burden on society
¡¡¡¡C) may lead to nursing home abuse and age discrimination
¡¡¡¡D) will create new fields of study in universities
Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.
The decline in moral standards-which has long concerned social analysts-has
at last captured the attention of average Americans. And Jean Bethke
Elshtain, for one, is glad.
¡¡¡¡The fact that ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about
the nation's moral climate, says this ethics (Â×Àíѧ) professor at the
University of Chicago, is reason to hope that new ideas will come forward
to improve it.
¡¡¡¡But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and
individualism in American society are the biggest obstacles. "The thought
that 'I'm in it for me' has become deeply rooted in the national
consciousness," Ms. Elshtain says.
¡¡¡¡Some of this can be attributed to the disintegration of traditional
communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With
today's greater mobility and with so many couples working, those bonds have
been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.
¡¡¡¡In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the
biggest problems facing the U.S. And Elshtain says the public is correct to
sense that: Data show that Americans are struggling with problems unheard
of in the 1950s, such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to
unmarried mothers.
The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament (Íì¸è) for some
nonexistent "golden age," Elshtain says, nor is it a wishful ( Ò»ÏáÇéÔ¸µÄ )
longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most
people, in fact, favor the lessening of prejudice.
¡¡¡¡Moral decline will not be reversed until people frnd ways to counter the
materialism in society,she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things
that matter are those that can't be bought."
36. Professor Elshtain is pleased to see that Americans________.
¡¡¡¡A) have adapted to a new set of moral standards
¡¡¡¡B) are longing for the return of the good old days
¡¡¡¡C) have realized the importance of material things
¡¡¡¡D) are awakening to the lowering of their moral standards
37. The moral decline of American society is caused mainly by
¡¡¡¡A) its growing wealth
¡¡¡¡B) the self-centeredness of individuals
¡¡¡¡C) underestimating the impact of social changes
¡¡¡¡D) the prejudice against women and minorities
38. Which of the following characterizes the traditional communities?
¡¡¡¡A) Great mobility. ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) Emphasis on individual effort.
¡¡¡¡B) Concern for one's neighbors.¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) Ever-weakening social bonds.
39. In the 1950s, classroom violence
¡¡¡¡A) was something unheard of¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡C) attracted a lot of public attention
¡¡¡¡B) was by no means a rare occurrence¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡D) began to appear in analysts'
data
40. According to Elshtain, the current moral decline may be reversed
¡¡¡¡A) if people can return to the "golden age"
¡¡¡¡B) when women and men enjoy equal rights
¡¡¡¡C) when people rid themselves of prejudice
¡¡¡¡D) if less emphasis is laid on material things

on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
¡¡¡¡One summer night, on my way home from work I decided to see a movie. I
knew the theatre would be air-conditioned and I couldn't face my 71
apartment. Sitting in the theatre I had to look through the 72 between the
two tall heads in front of me. I had to keep changing the 73 every time she
leaned over to talk to him, 74 he leaned over to kiss her. Why do Americans
display such 75 in a public place? I thought the movie would be good for my
English, but 76 it turned out, it was an Italian movie. 77 about an hour I
decided to give up on the movie and 78 on my popcorn ( ±¬ÓñÃ×»¨ ). I've never
understood why they give you so much popcorn! It tasted pretty good, 79 .
After a while I heard 80 more of the romantic-sounding Italians. I just
heard the 81 of the popcorn crunching ( ¾×½À ) between my teeth. My thought
started to 82 . I remembered when I was in South Korea (º«¹ú ), I 83 to watch
Kojak on TV frequently. He spoke perfect Korean - I was really amazed. He
seemed like a good friend to me, 84 _ I saw him again in New York speaking
85 . English instead of perfect Korean. He didn't even have a Korean accent
and I 86 like I had been betrayed. When our family moved to the United
States six years ago, none of us spoke any English. 87 we had begun to
learn a few words, my mother suggested that we all should speak English at
home. Everyone agreed, but our house became very 88 and we all seemed to
avoid each other. We sat at the dinner table in silence, preferring that to
89 . in a difficult language. Mother tried to say something in English but
it 90 out all wrong and we all burst into laughter and decided to forget
it! We've been speaking Korean at home ever since.
