Mark the corresponding letter of the word(s) you have chosen with a single bar across the square brackets on your Machine-scoring Answer Sheet. Every m

18、an unfolds a distinct character over which circumstances and education have only the most limited _21_. No two people will have ever _22_ the same conclusions from the same experiences, but each must interpret events and _23_ them into the mosaic of his own life pattern. Human nature is ever true to

19、 itself, not to the systems of faith or education. Each _24_ to the structure of the mold into which the soul was cast at the time of its individualization. The qualities _25_ in one remain as potentials whether they have a chance to develop or not. Under pressure, or change of interest, they can pa

20、rtially or wholly _26_ from view for considerable periods of time; but _27_ can permanently modify them, nothing can obliterate them. Although man is potentially _28_ he is far from being actually so. If he were actually perfect there would be _29_ for preachers, teachers and humanitarians to do; no

21、 use for churches, schools, courts and prisons. _30_ while it is impossible to change human nature, it can be studied, controlled and directed and this should be the supreme _31_ of our religious, educational and social institutions. Man is perfect as a seed is perfect, germinally. The spirit is per

22、fect, but when it _32_ human structures, it participates in the imperfections of _33_; and during its association with matters takes on a mortal weakness, desires and limitations. But the spirit, the inner man, remains untouched and undefiled by evil. Only the outer man-the personality and the physi

23、cal body-becomes imperfect, due to ignorance, wrong thinking and _34_ of the laws of being. The outer man, too, was originally perfect, _35_ man has so desecrated and abused it that today it is a far _36_ from the original model. Man s inherent goodness, moreover, is _37_ by his countless acts of he

24、roism, unselfishness and sacrifice. Human nature does not and cannot _38_ but unfolds its inherent pattern. Man has a nature and its _39_ can be known. We can only endeavor _40_ man as he is. 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 3 页，共 12 页 - - - - - - - - -

29、e square bracket on your Machine-scoring Answer Sheet . Passage One Acting is such an over-crowded profession that the only advice that should be given to a young person thinking of going on the stage is Dont!” But it is useless to try to discourage someone who feels that he must act, though the cha

30、nces of his becoming famous are slim. The normal way to begin is to go to a drama school. Usually only students who show promise and talent are accepted, and the course lasts two years. Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a repertory company, usually as an assistant stage manager. Thi

31、s means doing everything that there is to do in the theatre: painting scenery, looking after the furniture, taking care of the costumes, and even acting in very small parts. It is very hard work indeed. The hours are long and the salary is tiny. But young actors with the stage in their blood are hap

32、py, waiting for the chances of working with a better company, or perhaps in films or television. Of course, some people have unusual chances which lead to fame and success without this long and dull training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle factory. A film p

33、roducer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 名师精心整理 - - - - - - - 第 4 页，共 12 页 - - - - - - - - - 5 drove past in his big car. He told the driver to stop, and he got out to speak to the girl. He asked her if s

34、he would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and at first she thought he was joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the police. It took the producer twenty minutes to tell Connie that he was serious. Then an appointment was made for her to go to the studio the next day. The test

35、was successful. They gave her some necessary lessons and within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of the day. Of Course, she was given a more dramatic name, which is now world-famous. But chances like this happen once in a blue moon! 41. According to

36、 the passage, the main reason why young people should be discouraged from becoming actors is _. A actors are very unusual people B the course at the drama school lasts two years C acting is really a hard job D there are already too many actors 42. An assistant stage managers job is difficult because

37、 he has to _. A do all kinds of stage work B work for long hours C wait for a better companyD act well 43. According to the context, the sentence But young actors with the stage in their blood are happy at the end of the first paragraph means _. A they dont care if their job is hard B they like the

38、stage naturally C they are born happy D they are easily satisfied 44. Conie Pratt soon became a famous actress after _. A learning some lessons about the art of speaking B playing her part in the Blue Colored Moon C successfully matching the most famous actors D a cting a leading part with a most fa

39、mous actor at that time45. The phrase once in a blue moon in last line refers to _. A all at once B once for a long timeC once in a while D once and for all Passage Two Desegregation of higher education has produced significant improvements in education for all Americans. The opening up of segregate

40、d colleges and universities to students of all racial and ethnic backgrounds came about only as the result of many forms of prolonged struggle in the courts, in the streets, and on campuses. The efforts to open up higher educational opportunities for blacks in historically white institutions also le

41、d to expanded opportunities for lower- and middle-class white students, especially at institutions that adopted “ open admissions” policies of accepting all high school graduates. Between 1960 and 1981, while the number of black students between the ages of 名师资料总结 - - -精品资料欢迎下载 - - - - - - - - - - -

In 1960 more than one-half of blacks attendin

43、g colleges were enrolled at historically black institutions. By 1981 that percentage had declined to just 18 per cent. Most of the blacks enrolled in traditionally white institutions, however, were at two-year community colleges or at four-year public colleges that were becoming or had already becom

44、e predominantly black.Desegregation of higher education produced difficult problems for historically black institutions that had always struggled under great hardship to provide higher education for blacks when blacks had been barred from white institutions. Historically black institutions, however,

45、 have continued to produce a high percentage of the most educationally and professionally successful blacks in the United States. Meanwhile, blacks in predominantly white institutions have achieved notable progress, but they have also encountered various problems. College completion rates for young

46、blacks have increased substantially, but they are only about one-half the rate for young whites. In 1981, for example, 11.5 percent of blacks aged twenty-five to twenty-nine and 21.3percent of whites in that age group had completed college. Blacks continue to be substantially underrepresented in gra

47、duate and professional schools in the United States. During the early 1980s blacks comprised about 6 percent of students in graduate school and medical school and about 4 percent of all law school students. Blacks also received about 4 percent of all doctoral degrees, but over half of these degrees

48、were conferred in one discipline education. In general, since the cry of “ reverse discrimination” was raised during the middle of the 1970s, black progress in higher education has been slowed and perhaps even reversed. 46. What is the main idea of the passage? A Desegregation of higher education pr

49、oduced many difficulties for historically black institutions. B The opening up of higher educational opportunities for blacks led to expanded opportunities for white students too. C Blacks have been historically repressed in graduate and professional schools in the United States. D Desegregation of

50、higher education has brought more higher educational opportunities for black and white students alike. 47. What can be inferred about the opening up of segregated colleges and universities? A It came about as the result of a surge in the number of students enrolled in higher institutions. B It came
