　　Part III Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)

　　Direction: 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 center. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: Long after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the disputed refereeing・加登・decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.

　　The researcher organized an experimental tournament・助炎琵・involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.

　　Observers noted down the referees¨ errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number.

　　The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyse the matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum・恷煮議・distance is about 20 meters.

　　There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.

　　If FIFA, football¨s international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues.

　　He also says that FIFA¨s insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.

　　51. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to _______.

　　A) review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World Cup

　　B) analyse the causes of errors made by football referees

　　C) set a standard for football refereeing

　　D) reexamine the rules for football refereeing

　　52. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was _______.

　　A) slightly above average

　　B) higher than in the 1998 World Cup

　　C) quite unexpected

　　D) as high as in a standard match

　　53. The findings of the experiment show that _______.

　　A) errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ball

　　B) the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errors

　　C) the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occur

　　D) errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot

　　54. The word ＾officials￣ (Line 2, Para.4) most probably refers to _______.

　　A) the researchers involved in the experiment

　　B) the inspectors of the football tournament

　　C) the referees of the football tournament

　　D) the observers at the site of the experiment

　　55. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?

　　A) The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.

　　B) Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.

　　C) A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.

　　D) An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.

　　Passage Two

　　Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:

　　 While still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great success in many states ！ at least in getting people off welfare. It¨s estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.

　　In the past four years, welfare rolls in Athens Country have been cut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past tow years took jobs that paid less than $6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent ！ twice the national average.

　　For advocates・旗冱繁・for the poor, that¨s an indication much more needs to be done.

　　＾More people are getting jobs, but it¨s not making their lives any better,￣ says Kathy Lairn, a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington.

　　A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that between 1995 and 1996, a greater percentage of single, female-headed households were earning money on their own, but that average income for these households actually went down.

　　But for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost as well without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge victory.

　　＾Welfare was a poison. It was a toxin・蕎殆・that was poisoning the family,￣ says Robert Rector, a welfare-reform policy analyst. ＾The reform in changing the moral climate in low-income communities. It¨s beginning to rebuild the work ethic・祇蟻鉱・, which is much more important.￣

　　Mr. Rector and others argued that once ＾the habit of dependency is cracked,￣ then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.

　　56. From the passage, it can be seen that the author _______.

　　A) believes the reform has reduced the government¨s burden

　　B) insists that welfare reform is doing little good for the poor

　　C) is overenthusiastic about the success of welfare reform

　　D) considers welfare reform to be fundamentally successful

　　57. Why aren¨t people enjoying better lives when they have jobs?

　　A) Because many families are divorced.

　　B) Because government aid is now rare.

　　C) Because their wages are low.

　　D) Because the cost of living is rising.

　　58. What is worth noting from the example of Athens County is that _______.

　　A) greater efforts should be made to improve people¨s living standards

　　B) 70 percent of the people there have been employed for two years

　　C) 50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfare

　　D) the living standards of most people are going down

　　59. From the passage we know that welfare reform aims at _______.

　　A) saving welfare funds

　　B) rebuilding the work ethic C) providing more jobs D) cutting government expenses 60. According to the passage before the welfare reform was carried out, _______. A) the poverty rate was lover B) average living standards were higher C) the average worker was paid higher wages D) the poor used to rely on government aid Passage Three Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage: Americans are pound of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States? Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian・為侖議・clothes. People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. the television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity・附芸・than to step out of uniform?

　　Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible・辛受飽議・. They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.

　　Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.

　　Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.

　　61. It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality _______.

　　A) still judge a man by his clothes

　　B) hold the uniform in such high regard

　　C) enjoy having a professional identity

　　D) will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform

　　62. People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform _______.

　　A) suggests quality work

　　B) discards his social identity

　　C) appears to be more practical

　　D) looks superior to a person in civilian clothes

　　63. The chief function of a uniform is to _______.

　　A) provide practical benefits to the wearer

　　B) make the wearer catch the pubic eye

　　C) inspire the wearer¨s confidence in himself

　　D) provide the wearer with a professional identity

　　64. According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _______.

　　A) are usually helpful

　　B) have little or no individual freedom

　　C) tend to lose their individuality

　　D) enjoy greater popularity

　　65. The best title for this passage would be _______.

　　A) Uniforms and Society

　　B) The Importance of Wearing a Uniform

　　C) Practical Benefits of Wearing a Uniform

　　D) Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms

　　Passage Four

　　Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:

　　 Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles・是佃・. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off・飢蝕・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 despite 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. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting・廬卞´廣吭薦・us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support ！ financial aid, material resources, and needed services ！ that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.

　　66. Interpersonal relationships are important because _______.

　　A) they are indispensable to people¨s social well-being

　　B) they awaken people¨s desire to exchange resources

　　C) they help people to cope with life in the information era

　　D) they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.

　　67. Research shows that people¨s physical and mental health _______.

　　A) relies on the social welfare systems which support them

　　B) has much to do with the amount of support they get from others

　　C) depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles

　　D) is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives

　　68. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word ＾cushions￣ (Line 1, Para.2)?

　　A) Adds up to.

　　B) Does away with.

　　C) Lessens the effect of.

　　D) Lays the foundation for.

　　69. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of _______.

　　A) instrumental support

　　B) informational support

　　C) social companionship

　　D) the strengthening of self-respect

　　70. Social companionship is beneficial in that _______.

　　A) it helps strengthen our ties with relatives

　　B) it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakes

　　C) it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyable

　　D) it draws our attention away from our worries and troubles

　　拿下浏览的话，分数就很可不雅了。而相对的，浏览当然也有难度，涵盖了语法，词汇等。

　　我废话未几说，咱上节目吧。

　　　　Many Americans harbour a grossly distorted and exaggerated view of most of the risks surrounding food. Fergus Clydesdale, head of the department of food science and nutrition at the University of Massachusetts-Amherst, says bluntly that if the dangers from bacterially contaminated chicken were as great as somepeople believe, “the streets would be littered with people lying here and there.”

　　Though the public increasingly demands no-risk food, there is no such thing.Bruce Ames, chairman of the biochemistry department at the University of California, Berkeley, points out that up to 10% of a plant’s weight is made up of natural pesticides (杀虫剂). Says he: “Since plants do not have jaws or teeth to protect themselves, they employ chemical warfare.” And many naturally produced chemicals, though occurring in tiny amounts, prove in laboratory tests to be strong carcinogens-a substance which can cause cancer. Mushrooms (磨菇)might be banned if they were judged by the same standards that apply to food additives (添加剂). Declares Christina Stark, a nutritionist at Cornell University:“We’ve got fat worse natural chemicals in the food supply than anything man-made.”

　　Yet the issues are not that simple. While Americans have no reason to be terrified to sit down at the dinner table, they have every reason to demand significant

　　improvements in food and water safety. They unconsciously and unwillingly take in too much of too many dangerous chemicals. If food already contains natural carcinogens, it does not make much sense to add dozens of new manmade ones. Though most people will withstand the small amounts of contaminants generally found in food and water, at least a few individuals will probably get cancer one day be cause of what they eat and drink.

　　To make good food and water supplies even better, the Government needs to tighten its regulatory standards, stiffen its inspection program and strengthen its enforcement policies. The food industry should modify some long-accepted practices or turn to less hazardous alternatives.Perhaps most important, consumers will have to do a better job of learning how to handle and cook food properly.The problems that need to be tackled exist all along the food supply chain, from fields to processing plants to kitchens. 21. What does the author think of the Americans’ view of their food? A) They overstate the government’s interference with the food industry. B) They are overoptimistic about the safety of their food. C) They overestimate the hazards of their food. D) They overlook the risks of the food they eat.（） 22. The author considers it impossible to obtain no-risk food because ________. A) no food is free from pollution in the environment B) pesticides are widely used in agriculture C) many vegetables contain dangerous natural chemicals D) almost all foods have additives（） 23. By saying “they employ chemical warfare” (Line 4, Para. 2), Bruce Ames means “________”.

　　A) plants produce certain chemicals to combat pests and diseases

　　B) plants absorb useful chemicals to promote their growth

　　C) farmers use man-made chemicals to dissolve the natural chemicals in plants

　　D) farmers use chemicals to protect plants against pests and diseases（）

　　24. The reduction of the possible hazards in food ultimately depends on ________.

　　A) the government

　　B) the consumer

　　C) the processor

　　D) the grower（）

　　25. What is the message the author wants to convey in the passage?

　　A) Eating and drinking have become more hazardous than before.

　　B) Immediate measures must be taken to improve food production and processing.

　　C) Health food is not a dream in modern society.

　　D) There is reason for caution but no cause for alarm with regard to food consumption.
