20、)Directions: There are 4 reading 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.Passage OneAs supp

21、lier of most of the food we eat and of raw materials for many industrial processes, agriculture is clearly an important area of the economy. But the industrial performance of agriculture (the relative efficiency of agricultural production compared to other areas in the economy) is even more importan

22、t than this. For in nations where the productivity of farmers is low, most of the working population is needed to raise food and few people are available for the production of investment goods or for other activities required for economic growth. Indeed, one of the factors related most closely to th

23、e per capita income (人均收入) of a nation is the fraction of its population engaged in farming. In the poorest nations of the world more than half of the population lives on farms. This compares sharply with less than 10 percent in Western Europe and less than 4 percent in the United States.In short, t

24、he course of economic development in general depends in a fundamental way on the performance of farmers. This performance, in turn, depends on how agriculture is organized and on the economic environment, or market structure, within which it functions. In the following pages the performance of Ameri

25、can agriculture is examined. It is appropriate to begin with a consideration of its market structure.41.This passage is most probably _.A) a news itemB) part of an introduction to a bookC) part of a lectureD) an advertisement（C）42.What is the most important to agriculture is _.A) the amount of food

26、it producesB) the per capita income of farmersC) its industrial performanceD) the production of investment goods（C）43.The underlined word “this” in the first paragraph refers to _.A) the provision of food and raw materialsB) the productivity of farmersC) the production of investment goodsD) the econ

27、omy as a whole（A）44.The performance of farmers essentially determines _.A) the size of the working populationB) the organization of agricultureC) the market structureD) the general development of economy（D）45.This passage will most probably be followed by a discussion of _.A) the structure of Americ

28、an farming populationB) the market structure of American agricultureC) the various functions of American agricultureD) the organization of American agriculturePassage TwoFaces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people. Even a skilled writer pro

29、bably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child-or even an animal, such as a pigeon-can learn to recognize faces, we all take this ability for granted.We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someones personality, we

30、 mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks thinks and feels that make that individual different from others.Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someones personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a “nice

31、 face” looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a “nice person”, you might begin to think about someone who was kind considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon Allport

32、, an American psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in peoples behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types-people are described with such terms.People have always tr

33、ied to “type” each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains (坏人) or the heros role. In fact, the words “person” and “personality” come from the Latin persona, meaning “mask”. Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. But we

34、can easily tell the “good guys” from the “bad guys” because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.46.By using the example of finger prints, the author tells us that _.A) people can learn to recognize facesB) people have different personalitiesC) people have difficulty in describin

35、g the features of finger printsD) people differ from each other in facial features（D）47.According to this passage, some animals have the gift of _.A) telling people apart by how they behaveB) typing each otherC) telling good people from had peopleD) recognizing human faces（D）48.Who most probably kno

36、ws best how to describe peoples personality?A) The ancient Greek audienceB) The movie actorsC) PsychologistsD) The modern TV audience（C）49.According to the passage, it is possible for us tell one type of person from another because _.A) people differ in their behavioral and physical characteristicsB

37、) human fingerprints provide unique informationC) peoples behavior can be easily described in wordsD) human faces have complex features（A）50.Which of the following is the major point of the passage?A) Why it is necessary to identify peoples personalityB) Why it is possible to describe peopleC) How t

38、o get to know peopleD) How best to recognize peoplePassage ThreeIn bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the childs acquisition of each new skill-the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond

39、his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child: This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On th

40、e other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Patents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money

41、 matters. Others are severe over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the childs own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consist

42、ency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practice what they preach, their children may grow confused, and emotion

43、ally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.51.Eagerly watching the childs acquisition of new skills _.A

44、) should be avoidedB) is universal among parentsC) sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD) will make him lose interest in learning new things（B）52.In the process of childrens learning new skills parents _.A) should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they readB)

45、 should not expect too much of themC) should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD) should create as many learning opportunities as possible（C）53.The second paragraph mainly tells us that _.A) parents should be strict with their childrenB) parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of the communityC) parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children aloneD) parents vary in their strictness
