10、 idea.Then listen to the passage again.When the passage is read for the second time,you are required to fill in the blanks numbered from S1 to S7 with the exact words you have just heard.For blanks numbered S8 to S10 you are required to fill in missing information.You can either use the exact words

11、you have just heard or write down the main points in your own words.Finally,when the passage is read for the third time,you should check what you have written.President Clinton later today joins(S1)_ presidents Ford,Carter and Bush at“the president s summit for America s future”(S2)_ at recruiting o

12、ne million volunteer tutors to provide after-school,weekend and summer reading help for up to three million children.Mr.Clinton will ask Congress this coming week for nearly three(S3)_ dollars to fund a five-year program called“America Reads”.The program would fund the(S4)_ efforts of 20 thousand re

13、ading(S5)_ and it would also give(S6)_ to help parents help children read by the third grade,or about age eight.During his Saturday radio(S7)_,the president explained why the program is important.“We need America Reads and we need it now.Studies show that if the fourth-graders fail to read well,(S8)

14、_.But,40 percent of them still can t read at a basic level.”Volunteer tutors,who provide community service in exchange for college funding,are being used in literacy and tutoring programs.(S9)_.The president says many of the Philadelphia summit s corporate sponsors will recruit tutors.(S10)_.Part II

15、 Reading Comprehension(35 minutes)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 Answe

16、r Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.We sometimes think humans are uniquely vulnerable to anxiety,but stress seems to affect the immune defenses of lower animals too.In one experiment,for example,behavioral immunologist(免疫学家)Mark Laudens

17、lager,at the University of Denver,gave mild electric shocks to 24 rats.Half the animals could switch off the current by turning a wheel in their enclosure,while the other half could mot.The rats in the two groups were paired so that each time one rat turned the wheel it protected both itself and its

18、 helpless partner from the shock.Laudenslager found that the immune response was depressed below normal in the helpless rats but not in those that could turn off the electricity.What he has demonstrated,he believes,is that lack of control over an event,not the experience itself,is what weakens the i

19、mmune system.Other researchers agree.Jay Weiss,a psychologist at Duke University School of Medicine,has shown that animals who are allowed to control unpleasant stimuli don t develop sleep disturbances or changes in brain chemistry typical of stressed rats.But if the animals are confronted with situ

20、ations they have no control over,they later behave passively when faced with experiences they can control.Such findings reinforce psychologists suspicions that the experience or perception of helplessness is one of the most harmful factors in depression.One of the most startling examples of how the

21、mind can alter the immune response was discovered by chance.In 1975 psychologist Robert Ader at the University of Rochester School of Medicine conditioned(使形成条件反射)mice to avoid saccharin(糖精)by simultaneously feeding them the sweetener and injecting them with a drug that while suppressing their immun

22、e systems caused stomach upsets.Associating the saccharin with the stomach pains,the mice quickly learned to avoid the sweetener.In order to extinguish this dislike for the sweetener,Ader reexposed the animals to saccharin,this time without the drug,and was astonished to find that those mice that ha

23、d received the highest amounts of sweetener during their earlier conditioning died.He could only speculate that he had so successfully conditioned the rats that saccharin alone now served to weaken their immune systems enough to kill them.11.Laudenslager s experiment showed that the immune system of

24、 those rats who could turn off the electricity _.A)was strengthened B)was not affected C)was altered D)was weakened 12.According to the passage,the experience of helplessness causes rats to _.A)try to control unpleasant stimuli B)turn off the electricity C)behave passively in controllable situations

25、 D)become abnormally suspicious 13.The reason why the mice in Ader s experiment avoided saccharin was that _.A)they disliked its taste B)it affected their immune systems C)it led to stomach pains D)they associated it with stomachaches 14.The passage tells us that the most probable reason for the dea

26、th of the mice in Ader s experiment was that _.A)they had been weakened psychologically by the saccharin B)the sweetener was poisonous to them C)their immune systems had been altered by the mind D)they had taken too much sweetener during earlier conditioning 15.It can be concluded from the passage t

27、hat the immune systems of animals _.A)can be weakened by conditioning B)can be suppressed by drug injections C)can be affected by frequent doses of saccharin D)can be altered by electric shocks Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.The destruction of our natural resources and contami

28、nation of our food supply continue occur,largely because of the extreme difficulty in affixing(把固定)legal responsibility on those who continue to treat our environment with reckless abandon(放任).Attempts to prevent pollution by legislation,economic incentives and friendly persuasion have been net by l

29、awsuits,personal and industrial denial and long delaysnot only in accepting responsibility,but more importantly,in doing something about it.It seems that only when government decides it can afford tax incentives or production sacrifices is there any initiative for change.Where is industry s and our

30、recognition that protecting mankind s great treasure is the single most important responsibility?If ever there will be time for environmental health professionals to come to the frontlines and provide leadership to solve environmental problems,that time is now.We are being asked,and,in fact,the publ

31、ic is demanding that we take positive action.It is our responsibility as professionals in environmental health to make the difference.Yes,the ecologists,the environmental activists and the conservationists serve to communicate,stimulate thinking and promote behavioral change.However,it is those of u

32、s who are paid to make the decisions to develop,improve and enforce environmental standards,I submit,who must lead the charge.We must recognize that environmental health issues do not stop at city limits,county lines,state or even federal boundaries.We can no longer afford to be tunnel-visioned in o

33、ur approach.We must visualize issues from every perspective to make the objective decisions.We must express our views clearly to prevent media distortion and public confusion.I believe we have a three-part mission for the present.First,we must continue to press for improvements in the quality of lif

34、e that people can make for themselves.Second,we must investigate and understand the link between environment and health.Third,we must be able to communicate technical information in a form that citizens can understand.If we can accomplish these three goals in this decade,maybe we can finally stop en

35、vironmental degradation,and not merely hold it back.We will then be able to spend pollution dollars truly on prevention rather than on bandages.16.We can infer from the first two paragraphs that the industrialists disregard environmental protection chiefly because _.A)they are unaware of the consequ

36、ences of what they are doing B)they are reluctant to sacrifice their own economic interests C)time has not yet come for them to put due emphasis on it D)it is difficult for them to take effective measures 17.The main task now facing ecologists,environmental activists and conservationists is _.A)to p

37、revent pollution by legislation,economic incentives and persuasion B)to arouse public awareness of the importance of environmental protection C)to take radical measures to control environmental pollution D)to improve the quality of life by enforcing environmental standards 18.The word“tunnel-visione

38、d(Line 2,Para.4)most probably means“_”.A)narrow-minded B)blind to the facts C)short-sighted D)able to see only one aspect 19.Which of the following,according to the author,should play the leading role in the solution of environmental problems?A)Legislation and government intervention.B)The industry

39、s understanding and support.C)The efforts of environmental health professionals.D)The cooperation of ecologists,environmental activists and conservationists.20.Which of the following is true according to the last paragraph?A)Efforts should be exerted on pollution prevention instead of on remedial me

40、asures.B)More money should be spent in order to stop pollution.C)Ordinary citizens have no access to technical information on pollution.D)Environmental degradation will be stopped by the end of this decade.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.British universities,groaning under the

41、burden of a huge increase in student numbers,are warning that the tradition of a free education is at risk.The universities have threatened to impose an admission fee on students to plug a gap in revenue if the government does not act to improve their finances and scrap some public spending cutbacks

42、.The government responded to the universities threat by setting up the most fundamental review of higher education for a generation,under a non-party troubleshooter(调停人)，Sir Ron Dearing.One in three school-leavers enters higher education,five times the number when the last review took place thirty y

43、ears ago.Everyone agrees a system that is feeling the strain after rapid expansion needs a lot more money-but there is little hope of getting it from the taxpayer and not much scope for attracting more finance from business.Most colleges believe students should contribute to tuition costs,something

44、that is common elsewhere in the world but would mark a revolutionary change in Britain.Universities want the government to introduce a loan scheme for tuition fees and have suspended their own threatened action for now.They await Dearing s advice,hoping it will not be too late-some are already repor

45、ted to be in financial difficulty.As the century nears its end,the whole concept of what a university should be is under the microscope.Experts ponder how much they can use computers instead of classrooms,talk of the need for lifelong learning and refer to students as“consumers.”The Confederation(联盟

46、)of British Industry,the key employers organization,wants even more expansion in higher education to help fight competition on world markets from booming Asian economies.But the government has doubts about more expansion.The Times newspaper egress,complaining that quality has suffered as student num

47、bers soared,with close tutorial supervision giving way to“mass production methods more typical of European universities.”21.The chief concern of British universities is _.A)how to tackle their present financial difficulty B)how to expand the enrollment to meet the needs of enterprises C)how to impro

48、ve their educational technology D)how to put an end to the current tendency of quality deterioration 22.We can learn from the passage that in Britain _.A)the government pays dearly for its financial policy B)universities are mainly funded by businesses C)higher education is provided free of charge D

49、)students are ready to accept loan schemes for tuition 23.What was the percentage of high school graduates admitted to universities in Britain thirty years ago?A)20%or so.B)About 15%.C)Above 30%.D)Below 10%.24.It can be inferred from the passage that _.A)the British government will be forced to incr

50、ease its spending on higher education B)British employers demand an expansion in enrollment at the expense of quality C)the best way out for British universities is to follow their European counterparts D)British students will probably have to pay for their higher education in the near future 25.Whi
