Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes) Section A 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. Dogs are social animals and without proper training, they will behave like wild animals. They will spboil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively,fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong thing. The key to preventing or treating behavior problems us learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior to outlets that are acceptable in the domestic setting. One of the best things you can do for your dog and yourself is to obedience train (驯服) it. Obedience training doesn't solve all behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem.Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do. Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order. When your dog o beys a simple request of "come here, sit," it is showing obedience and respect for you. It is not necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the dog pack (群) by using extreme measures. You can teach your dog its subordinate (从属的)role by teaching it to show submission to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you to pleasantly accept that you are in charge. Training should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog.It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable. A well |trained dog is more confident and can more safely be allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal. 21. Behavior problems of dogs are believed to _______. A) be just part of their nature B) worsen in modern society C) occure when they go wild D) present a threat to the community 22. The primary purpose of obedience training is to _______. A) teach the dog to perform clever tricks B) make the dog aware fo its owner's authority C) provide the dog with outlets for its wild behavior D) enable the dog to regain its normal behavior 23. Effective communication between a dog and its owner is _______. A) essential to solving the dog's behavior problems B) the foundation for dogs to perform tasks C) a good way to teach the dog new tricks D) an extreme measure in obedience training 24. Why do pet dogs love performing tricks for their masters? A) To avoid being punished. B) To show their affection for their masters. C) To win leadership of the dog pack. D) To show their willingness to obey. 25. When a dog has received effective obedience training, its owner _______. A) can give the dog more rewards B) will enjoy a better family life C) can give the dog more freedom D) will have more confidence in himself Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality , but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In highschool I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department,famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that's not what I did. I chose to study engineering at a small liberal |arts(文科) university that doesn't even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who weren't studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice. They told me I was wise and mature beyond my 18 years, and I believed them. I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineerng "factories" where they didn't care if you had values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer: technical genius and sensitive humanist(人文学者) all in one. Now I'm not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into reality, as all noble ideals eventually do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal arts courses, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile (协调) engineering with liberal |arts courses in college. The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply don't mix as easily as I assumed in high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways; together they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult. 26. The author chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university because he _______. A) wanted to be an example of practicality and rationality B) intended to be a combination of engineer and humanist C) wanted to coordinate engineering with liberal-arts courses in college D) intended to be a sensible student with noble ideals 27. According to the author, by interacting with people who study liberal arts, engineering students can _______. A) balance engineering and the liberal arts B) receive guidance in their careers C) become noble idealists D) broaden their horizons 28. In the eyes of the author, a successful engineering student is expected _______. A) to have an excellent academic record B) to be wise and mature C) to be imaginative with a value system to guide him D) to be a technical genius with a wide vision 29. The author's experience shows that he was _______. A) creative B) ambitious C) unrealistic D) irrational 30. The word "they" in "... together they threaten to confuse." (Line 3, Para. 5) refers to _______. A) engineering and the liberal arts B) reality and noble ideals C) flexibility and a value system D) practicality and rationality Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. Priscilla Ouchida's "energy |efficient" house turned out to be a horrible dream. When she and her engineer husband married a few years ago, they built a $100,000, three -bedroom home in California. Tightly sealed to prevent air leaks,the house was equipped with small double |paned(双层玻璃的) windows and several other energy |saving features. Problems began as soon as the couple moved in, however. Priscilla's eyes burned. Her throat was constantly dry. She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep. It was as though she had suddenly developed a strange illness. Experts finally traced the cause of her illness. The leyel of of formaldehyde(甲醛) gas in her kitchen was twice the maximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers. The source of the gas? Her new kitchen cabinets and wall |to |wall carpeting. The Ouchidas are victims of indoor air pollution, which is not given sufficient attention partly because of the nation's drive to save energy. The problem itself isn't new. "The indoor environment was dirty long before energy conservation came along," says Moschandreas, a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies in Maryland. "Energy conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in some cases." The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes rather than old ones. Back in the days when energy was cheap, home builders didn't worry much about unsealed cracks. Because of such leaks, the air in an average home was replaced by fresh outdoor air about once an hour. As a result, the pollutants generated in most households seldom built up to dangerous levels. 31. It can be learned from the passage that the Ouchidas' house_______. A) is well worth the money spent on its construction B) is almost faultless from the point of energy conservation C) failed to meet energy conservation standards D) was designed and constructed in a scientific way 32. What made the Ouchidas' new house a horrible dream? A) Lack of fresh air. B) Poor quality of buildig materials. C) Gas leakage in the kitchen. D) The newly painted walls 33. The word "accentuate"(Line 4, Para. 3) most probably means "________". A) relieve B) accelerate C) worsen D) improve 34. Why were cracks in old houses not a big concern? A) Because indoor cleanness was not emphasized. B) Because energy used to be inexpensive. C) Because environmental protection was given top priority. D) Because they were technically unavoidable. 35. This passage is most probably taken from an article entitled "________" . A) Energy Conservation B) House Building Crisis C) Air Pollution Indoors D) Traps in Building Consruction Passage Four Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. In 1993, New York State ordered stores to charge a deposit on beverage(饮料) containers. Within a year, consumers had returned millions of aluminum cans and glass and plastic bottles. Plenty of companies were eager to accept the aluminum and glass as raw materials for new products, but because few could figure out what to do with the plastic, much of it wound up buried in landfills (垃圾填埋场). The problem was not limited to New York. Unfortunately, there were too few uses for second |hand plastic. Today, one out of five plastic soda bottles is recycled (回收利用) in the United States. The reason for the change is that now there are dozens of companies across the country buying discarded plastic soda bottles and turning them into fence posts, paint brushes, etc. As the New York experience shows, recycling involves more than simply separating valuable materials from the rest of the rubbish. A discard remains a discard until somebody figures out how to give it a second life-and until economic arrangements exist to give that second life value. Without adequate markets to absorb materials collected for recycling, throwaways actually depress prices for used materials. Shrinking landfill space, and rising costs for burying and burning rubbish are forcing local governments to look more closely at recycling. In many areas, the East Coast especially, recycling is already the least expensive waste |management option. For every ton of waste recycled, a city avoids paying for its disposal, which, in parts of New York, amounts to savings of more than $100 per ton. Recycling also stimulates the local economy by creating jobs and trims the pollution control and energy costs of industries that make recycled products by giving them a more refined raw material. 36. What regulation was issued by New York State concerning beyerage containers? A) Beverage companies should be responsible for collecting and reusing discarded plastic soda bottles. B) Throwaways should be collected by the state for recycling. C) A fee should be charged on used containers for recycling. D) Consumers had to pay for beverage containers and could get their money back on returning them. 37. The returned plastic bottles in New York used to _______. A) end up somewhere underground B) be turned into raw materials C) have a second |life value D) be separated from other rubbish 38. The key problem in dealing with returned plastic beverage containers is_______. A) to sell them at a profitable price B) how to turn them into useful things C) how to reduce their recycling costs D) to lower the prices for used materials 39. Recycling has become the first choice for the disposal of rubbish because _______. A) local governments find it easy to manage B) recycling has great appeal for the jobless C) recycling causes little pollution D) other methods are more expensive 40. It can be concluded from the passage that _______. A) rubbish is a potential remedy for the shortage of raw materials B) local governments in the U.S. can expect big profits from recycling C) recycling is to be recommended both economically and environmentally D) lanfills will still be widely used for waste disposal

For the past two years, I have been working on students' evaluation of classroom teaching.

Nevertheless, 79 the following suggestions and comments indicate, students feel 80 with things-as-they-are in the classroom. Professors should be 81 from reading lecture notes.

Passage One
A friend of mine told me that when he was a young man,he went to work as a teacher in one of the states of India.One day,he received an invitation to dinner at the ruler ' s palace.Very pleased,he went to tell his colleagues.They laughed,and told him the meaning of the invitation.They had all been invited,and each person who was invited had to bring with him a certain number of silver and gold coins.The number of coins varied according to the person ' s position in the service of the government.My friend ' s income was not high,so he did not have much to pay.Each person bowed before the ruler,his gold went onto one hip,his silver went onto another hip.And in this way he paid his income tax for the year.This was a simple way of collecting income tax.The tax on property was also collected simply.The ruler gave a man the power to collect a tax from each owner of land or property in a certain area,if this man promised to pay the ruler a certain amount of money.Of course,the tax collector managed to collect more money than he paid to the ruler.The difference between the sum of money he collected and the sum of money he gave to the ruler was his profit.
11.What do we know about the speaker ' s friend?
12.What was the real purpose of the ruler ' s invitation?
13.What does the passage say about the tax collectors?
Passage Two
Around the year 1000 A.D,some people from northwest India began to travel westward.Nobody knows why.After leaving their homes,they did not settle down again,but spent their lives moving from one place to another,their later generations are called the Romany people,or Gypsies.There ' re Gypsies all over the world,and many of them are still travelling with no fix homes.There are about 8,000,000 of them,including 3,000,000 in eastern Europe.Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel,because they are different. People may be afraid of them,look down on them, or think that they are criminals. The Nazies treated the Gypsies cruelly,like the Jews,and nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler ' s deathcamps.Gypsies have their own language Romany.They liked music and dancing.And they often work in fairs and travelling shows.Travelling is very important to them,and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place.Because of this,it is difficult for Gypsy children to go to school,and Gypsies are often unable to read and write.In some places,the education authorities tried to arrange special travelling schools for Gypsy children,so that they can get the same education as other children.
14.Why did the ancestors of Gypsies leave their home?
15.What is the attitude of some people toward Gypsies?
16.What measure has been taken to help Gypsy children?
Passage Three
As the car industry develops,traffic accidents have become as familiar as the common code.Yet,their cause and control remain a serious problem that is difficult to solve.Experts have long recognized that this discouraging problem has multiple causes.At the very least,it is a problem that involves three factors:the driver,the vehicle,and the roadway.If all drivers exercise good judgement at all times,there would be few accidents.But that is rather like saying that if all people were honest,there would be no crime.Improved design has helped make highways much safer.But the type of accidents continued to rise because of human failure and an enormous increase in the numbers of automobiles on the road.Attention is now turning increasingly to the third factor of the accident,the car itself.Since people assume that the accidents are bound to occur,they want to know how cars can be built better to protect the drivers.
17.What does the speaker think of the causes of automobile accidents?
18.What measure has been taken to reduce car accidents?
19.What remains an important factor for the rising number of road accidents? 20.What is the focus of people ' s attentions today according to the passage? 1.C 2.A 3.A 4.C 5.B 6.D 7.A 8.D 9.B 10.B

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension
Passage One
【短文大意】这是一篇说明文。本文着重介绍被驯服的狗和一般狗行为的差异,向读者介绍了有关驯服狗的一些基本知识。
第一段介绍狗是人们常见的一种动物,未经驯服的狗生性狂野,解决狗行为上的关键在于怎样使它适应正常的环境。
第二、三段提到驯服狗并不是要求解决其行为上的所有问题,而是基于某种特殊的现象,在狗与主人之间建立一种和谐主从关系,使狗能有正常的行为,随时听从使唤。最后一段介绍一个受过良好驯服的狗常会得到更多的自由和活动范围,而它的主人也会从中得到乐趣。
21.C 细节推理题。从文章第一段第 3 句话判断 C) 项正确。未经驯服的狗生性狂野,这种行为上的异常现象是多数狗在异常情况下 ( 尤指狗被激怒时 ) 的正确表现,即是它本性的一个方面。 A) 项内容未提到。 B) 项容易使考生误解,从第一段第一句便能判断不正确,问句说:狗变得凶猛时,才出现行为上的问题,言外之意,狗是一个温驯的动物,显然与句意不符。 D) 项为局部内容,不能作全面回答。
22.B 细节推理题。从第一段最后一句话判断 B) 项正确。驯服的主要目的是使狗能有正常的行为,而并非 A) 项中片面地提到训练狗仅是需要它玩耍几个花样而已。 C) 、 D) 项内容未提到。

Passage Two
【短文大意】这是一篇记叙文。讲述作者本人进入大学力图专修文理课程所遇到的困难。第一段是主题段落,介绍作者高中时就想当一名电气工程师,在一所条件颇好的知名工程系学习,不过他没有这样做,但后来的选择使他深知自己是一个远离现实的理想主义者。第二、三段介绍作者选择了一所不开设电气工程专业的文科大学学习工科,尽管这种选择与初衷相悖,但认为这有利于自己拓宽知识、开阔眼界,使自己成为一名既懂专业又具有人文知识的学生。
第四、五段谈到经过三年的努力全面发展文理知识后,作者才意识到,像这类文理兼修的学生要想有所为绝非易事,因为工科与文科知识的相互补充毕竟有限,由此导致他美好的理想彻底破灭。
26.C 综合推理题。从文章第三段最后一句可判断 C) 项正确。作者在文科大学攻读工科专业,旨在拓宽知识、掌握有关文科知识,使自己成为一名全面发展的学生。

Passage Three
【短文大意】这是一篇科普说明文。本文主要论述室内空气污染问题。以 Ouchida 夫妇修建的节能房屋及其导致 Priscilla 生病为例介绍了新的节约能源方法的运用。由于采用新的节能方法,使得原有潜在的室内空气污染更加严重,从而酿成祸患。
第一段介绍了 Ouchida 夫妇耗资 10 万美元修建一栋有三间卧室的节能房屋,房屋密封效果好,然而令人可怕的是住进后不久, Priscilla 祸患不断。
第二、三、四段提到有关专家对此进行调查,酿成祸患的根源是室内空气严重污染所致。过去能源廉价,住房修建不太合理,出现房屋袭缝,汇漏能源现象;空气污染问题还未暴露出来。但由于后来采用节能方法,使得这潜在的问题更加严重,演出这祸患的一幕。
31.D 综合推理题。从节约能源的角度看, Ouchida 夫妇修建的房屋是按要求修建的,并不存在问题。文中 Priscilla 祸患不断并非因采用节能方法所造成,而是原有潜在的及后来采用新方法带来的问题才使室内空气污染问题变得明显严重。故 D) 为正确答案。
32.A 综合推理题。根据第一段和最后一段对比分析能判断 A) 为正确答案。
33.A 词义推测题。从上下文分析,节能部门事先未对室内环境不洁净状况引起重视,加之后来采用新的节能方法,使得原有的问题更严重,室内空气污染更严重,故 A) 为正确答案。
34.D 细节推测题。根据最后一段第二句可判断 D) 项正确。过去建造者对房屋裂缝 ( 泄漏能源现象 ) 没有认真考虑,因那时能源廉价,住房者能承受得了。
35.B 主旨推断题。文章主旨不在讲能源节约,而主要论述室内空气污染问题。采用新的节能方法修建房屋 ( 即房屋密封效果好 ) 带来的室内空气污染及原有潜在的成为本文论述的主要话题。所以 B) 是正确答案。

第二、三段介绍了回收利用塑料垃圾的方法,找到一条再利用的途径以及产生的经济效益。第四段说明处理垃圾费用昂贵,而且需要填埋场地,这迫使当地部门重视废物回收利用,因为这被认为是最经济的选择方法,同时,它还能解决环境污染,作为原材料生产新产品,推动经济发展。
36.C 事实辨认题。从文章第一段第一句可得知答案为 C) 。纽约市要求商店先收取顾客购买罐制品饮料时的押金,待顾客用完返回时再退回。
37.D 细节推理题。根据文章第一段第三句话可判断 D) 为答案。在纽约多数公司愿意回收铝制、玻璃类垃圾,而对回收利用塑料类垃圾感到一筹莫展,只好被埋到垃圾填埋场里。
38.C 细节推理题。根据第三段第二句可找到答案 C) 。从上述两段分析,塑料垃圾回收利用一直是厂家难以解决的问题。本段着重论述人们应如何找到一条塑料垃圾再利用的途径 ( 即给予第二次生命 ) ,使之变成有用的产品,其次还要有经济效益。
39.B 事实辨认题。从最后一段第一、二句话可知答案 B) 。废弃物回收利用是管理部门认为的一种最经济的选择方式,因为填埋和焚烧垃圾的费用正在不断上涨。
40.A 主旨大意题。全文介绍了废弃物回收利用的好处,它不仅能减少环境污染,节约垃圾填埋场地,又能被生产成新产品、推动经济发展,不言而喻, recycling 值得推广。

50.D 虽然允许从家庭、社团或政府中接受财政资助,但这并不受到赞赏。本题是语法题。本句需一个表示转折关系的连接词连接句子,才能符合句意,故 D) 是正确选项。 A)once “一旦…… ( 就…… ) 。 B)lest “以免,唯恐”,是四级测试中的常考点,其从句中的谓语动词一般用虚拟语气 (should)+ 动词原形,如: I am afraid lest he (should) miss the train ( 我担心他会错过火车。 )

55.C 我宁愿有一个自己的房间,也不愿与别人同住一室,无论这个房间有多小。测试点为语法结构题。句中 would rahter...than... “宁可…… ( 也 ) 不愿……,是一个典型的平行结构句型。平行结构要求平行的两部分在语法上对等。 would rather 后面跟的是谓语动词, than 后面也应跟谓语动词,如: I would rather stay at home than go out. ( 我宁可呆在家里,也不想出去 ) ,故 C) 为正确答案。 A) 、 B) 、 D) 都是非谓语动词,不符合题意。

69.A 由于温度下降如此迅速,所以我们不可能继续做实验。本题是 with 引导的独立结构,独立结构中的逻辑主语前有时可以加 with 或 without, 作伴随状语或定语,其后可跟分词、不定式、形容词、介词短语、副词或名词等。

76.A make remarks 是习惯搭配,意指“评论”。 address “演讲、演说、致辞”。
77.A fact “事实”,常作 that 引导同位语从句的先行词,指实际上发生过或有过的事,符合句意。 truth 虽可作同位语从句的先行词,但此时指真实无误,含有正确、真理的意思,显然与上下文不符。其它二项也为干扰项。

79.C as 是连词,在此处意为“正如,象”,是常考词,望考生注意。

84.D 结合上下文理解:“那么我们就不需要去上课了”,显然这是一个与将来事实相反的虚拟语气。应选 D 项 wouldn ' t 。
85.A 从本段分析进而说明教师们还应避免教科书中内容的重要讲授,故 avoid 是正确答案。其余不合题意。
86.C once “一旦,只要、如果”。 A) 、 B) 、 D) 不符合题意。

88.A 从上下文结合起来分析,此句意为“只要我们读完了这些材料,需要的是对它进行论讨或听到对其详尽讲解,而并非复述”。显然此处缺一个表示否定的副词。
