Fill in each blank in the passage with the most likely answer. (15 points)
From childhood to old age, we all use language as a means of broadening our knowledge of ourselves and the world about us. When humans first   16  , they were like newborn children, unable to use this   17   tool. Yet once language developed, the possibilities for human kinds future attainments (成就) and cultural growth increased.
Many linguists believe that evolution is   18   for our ability to produce and use language. They   19   that our highly evolved brain provides us   20   an innate (天生的) language ability not found in lower organisms (生命体). Proponents of this innateness theory say that our   21   for language is inborn, but that language itself develops gradually,   22   a function of the growth of the brain during childhood. Therefore, there are critical biological times for language development. Current   23   of innateness theory are mixed. However, evidence supporting the existence of some innate abilities is undeniable.   24  , more and more schools are discovering that foreign languages are best taught in   25   grades. Young children often can learn several languages by being   26   to them, while adults have a much harder time learning another language once the   27   of their first language have become firmly fi
28   some aspects of language are undeniably innate, language does not develop automatically in a vacuum. Children who have been   29   from other human beings do not possess language. This demonstrates that interaction with other human beings is necessary for proper language development. Some linguists believe that this is even more basic to human language acquisition than any innate capacities. These theorists view language as imitative, learned behavior.   30  , children learn language from their parents by imitating them. Parents gradually shape their child’s language skills by positively reinforcing precise imitations and negatively reinforcing imprecise ones.
16. A. generated        B. evolved             C. born                     D. originated
17. A. valuable         B. appropriate       C. convenient            D. favorite
18. A. essential         B. available           C. reliable                 D. responsible

Passage 1
Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal (人际的) relationships. One strength of the human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful (有压力的) conditions. Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves
 against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.
Social support, cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting (转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support, money aid, material resources, and needed services--that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.
41．Interpersonal relationships are important because they can________．
A．make people live more easily

Passage 2
    Fred Michel is one of 7.2 million Americans who moonlight．
    Once a week, after his day job as medical director of a mental health center，the 40-year-old
psychiatrist(精神科医生)heads to a part-time job at a treatment center for young people．Twice a month，he travels three hours to another teenage treatment center．
    Last year，5.4 percent of the American workforce held second jobs，according to the US Labor Department，and that looks set to increase this year．
    Many workers like the safety that moonlighting provides，says Carl Hausamn，the writer of “Moonlighting：148 Great Ways to Make Money to the Side”．
    The information from the US Labor Department shows that 40 percent of US moonlighters in 1997 took a second job to meet household expenses or pay off debts．Others save money or buy some special

things．
    People also take second jobs with an eye to the future—wanting to try out a new field or gain experience．
    Michel started moonlighting when medical systems were unstable(不稳定的)．He wanted to make sure he wasn’t tied to one system that ended up failing．
    Just as the purposes for moonlighting vary，the moonlighters cross all age and racial groups．And they work in a variety of industries-·no longer just service，office and sales jobs．
    “Technology just affects your ability to make money,” Hausman says. “That makes a frequent change in moonlighting.”
     As its name means, moonlighting still occurs mostly at night. And that results in some pressures. Chief among them is time.
     Full-time employers could misunderstand, too. Some companies do not allow after-hour work because they fear it will affect their employees’ 9-to-5 performance.
     “The primary employer is saying, ‘Wait, I’m paying you for the sharp, fresh, energetic you,’”says Tom Gimbel, president and founder of LaSalle Staffing in Chicago. “If you’re burning yourself at both ends, it’s going to show.”
     Still, the good done to the moonlighters can be great. Besides extra income, moonlighters enjoy variety, freedom and chance to do something new. They also may find their part-time jobs strengthen what they do full time.
     Besides, “it’s fun,” Michel says. Not only do his part-time jobs offer a chance to network, stretch his professional skills and make more money, but they also give him the variety he wouldn’t find just in a full-time job.
    ; “It’s a way of pulling from the spice cabinet,” he says, “and offering a little variety throughout the day.”
46. What is the closest definition of “moonlight”?
A. Go out at night.                               
B. Do some secret things at night.
C. Take some part-time jobs at night.       
D. Go out for a walk at night.

47. What is the article mainly about?
A. The ways of moonlighting.              
B. The reasons for moonlighting.
C. The problems with moonlighting.            
D. The kinds of people who moonlight.

48. The reason why Fred Michel began to moonlight is that ______.
A. he found it exciting to do a part-time job
B. he needed to make ends meet with more money
C. he feared he would lose his present job one day
D. he felt more and more pressure from his employer

49. Some companies don’t allow their workers to moonlight because they are afraid ______.
A. their workers cannot do extra-hour work for them
B. their workers will be too tired to try their best at work
C. their workers will one day turn to some other different jobs
D. their workers will not get to work and be off work on time

50. The underlined sentence “It’s a way of pulling from the spice cabinet.” in the last paragraph means________.
A. moonlighting gets you away from the job you don’t enjoy
B. moonlighting offers you freedom to make extra money
C. moonlighting strengthens your professional skills
D. moonlighting brings you chances to do something diff

erent
