Reading comprehension(20%) Directions: in this part there are three passages followed by questions, each with four suggested answers. choose the best ONE you think is the best answer. (A) Some people have it easy. When their kids ask them what they do at work, they can give a sample, direct answer: ―I put out fires‖ or ―I fix sick people‖ or ―I teach primary school‖. As a theoretical physicist, I never had this luck. Society has come to expect many things from the physicists. (1)It used to be that we only had to discover the basic laws of the world and supply the techniques that would power the next Silicon Valley. With these expectations we were fairly comfortable: they are the sorts of things we think we know how to do. What makes us un comfortable –and what makes it hard for us to tell our kids what we are up to—is that in this century we have become, though unwillingly, gurus on questions such as ―what is the nature of reality?‖. We now deal with a whole new class of problems. We ask how the world began and what the nature of matter is. (2)The answers we are coming up with are just not easy to comprehend for the average person.. So, when physicists get out of their cars in the morning, have a cup of coffee and sit down in front of their computers, they leave a familiar world and enter a place where things act in strange ways that are impossible for ordinary people to understand. 1、According to the passage, in a way physicist are A、intelligent B、comfortable C、strange D、unlucky 2、Judging from the context, the word ―guru‖ in the first paragraph most probably means a person A、who acts as a teacher and answers big questions.

He was Prince Henry of Portugal, The younger son of the Portuguese king and an English princess. Prince Henry lived in the fifteenth century. As a boy he became devoted to the sea, and he dedicated himself to improving the design of ships and the methods of sailing them.(3)In 1416, when he was twenty-two , Henry founded a school for mariners, to which he invited everyone who could help him-Jewish astronomers, Italian and Spanish sailors, and Arab mathematicians and map makers who knew how to use crude compass of the day and could improve it. ’(4)Henrys goal was to design and equip vessels that would be capable of making long ocean voyages without having to keep close to the store. The caravel, witch he help design, carried more sails and was longer and slimmer than any ship then made, yet was tough enough to stand up against gales at sea. He also developed the carrack, which was a slower ship, but one that was capable of carrying more cargo. The world owes credit to Prince Henry for the development of craft that made oceanic exploration possible. He lives in history as Henry the Navigator. 6、Henry the Navigator was a member of the royal family of A、England B、Spain C、Italy D、Portugal 7、Prince Henry started his school for the purpose of A、helping mariners B、improving ship design and sailing methods C、studying astronomy and mathematics D、improving his own skill as a sailor ’8、The teacher in Prince Henrys school seem to have been A、members of the royal family B、astronomers, sailors and map makers C、shipbuilders D、all of the above 9、Prince Heir’s goal was to design vessels that could A、make long deep-sea voyages B、travel faster than those in use at that time C、explore the coastline of Portugal D、carry larger crews and more cargo than existing ones 10、Compared with his caravel, Heir’s carrack was A、longer and slimmer B、able to carry more sails C、able to carry more cargo D、shorter 11、Prince Heir’s principal achievement was that of A、making oceanic exploration possible B、improving the compass C、founding a school for mariners D、inventing the clipper ship 12、The best title for this selection is A、The First Modern Sailing Vessels B、The Mariner Prince C、Prince Heir’s Role in the History of Shipbuilding D、The First School for Sailors (C) Many people are frightened by spiders. They are especially afraid of large, hairy ones. The largest and most frightening of all spiders is the bird-eating spider, which lives in the hot, thick rain forests of northern South America. Bird-eating spiders are a type of tarantula. They are very hairy. Some of these giant spiders can spread eighteen centimeters (seven inches)with their legs.(5)Tarantulas are not, as most people think, poisonous spiders. They can bite, and the bite is painful, but it will not kill a grown-up. The Poisonous bite of a black widow spider is far more dangerous. Bird-eating spiders often hide in holes and under rocks during the day, but at night they creep out and hunt for insects. As you might guess from their name, they also catch birds and eat them. They have another unusual ability. They can walk up windowpanes because of sticky, silky hairs on their feet that cling to glass. 13、The bird-eating spider can be described as A、a very hairy spider B、a very frightening spider C、the largest of spider D、all of the above 14、This spider lives where the climate is A、wet and hot B、cool and dry C、hot and dry D、cool and wet 15、The article says that the bird-eating spider is a kind of A、large crab B、tarantula C、black widow spider D、all of the above 16、Compared with the bite of a black widow spider, the bite of a tarantula is A、more dangerous B、less dangerous C、just as dangerous D、None of the above 17、Bird-eating spiders hunt A、during the day B、at night C、at dawn D、Both A and B 18、Implied but not started: A、The bird-eating spider may probably fly if it can catch birds.

James Watt had made the world’s first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power. Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He called that unit one horsepower. With this unit he could measure the work his steam engine could do. He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute. (1)Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten horsepower engine 21、The selection says that Watt made the first A、engine B、steam engine C、widely used steam engine D、useful engine 22、Watt wanted to find a way to A、measure the work his engine could do B、tell people how powerful his engine was C、lift a 3300-pound weight D、Both A and B 23、He made up a unit of measurement based on the strength of A、a man B、ten horses C、his engine D、a horse 24、One horsepower would equal the A、work a horse could do in a minute B、weight a horse could lift C、work a horse could do in ten minutes D、weight of one horse 25、The best title for this selection is A、Watt’s Engine B、The Origin of the Term Horsepower C、Units of Measurement D、It Happened 200 Years Ago. (E) (2)Cancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found out that stress helps to bring it on. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about them. Are we under-employed, or overburdened with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be? All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations into the open. People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle up their feelings. (3)If our self-examination has brought any cause of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hour’s anger. The teaching in the in the Bible ―Let not the sun go down upon your wrath‖ is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religious. 26、Which of the following statements is true?

A、Changing our jobs B、Changing our attitude about little things that make us unhappy C、Speaking out about our frustrations D、Reading the Bible 30、 ―Let not the sun go down upon your wrath‖ probably means A、Don’t let your anger last long B、Don’t get angry while the sun is going down C、Don’t get angry easily about little things watch the sun set while you are angry D、Don’t (F) Humans are social animals. They depend on groups for survival, An individual human being lost in a wilderness is capable of doing mangy things. But he or she will probably be thinking constantly about how much better it would be if there were other people around to talk and to help. Because humans like to live and work in groups, they form couples and families; villages and cities; work groups, teams, and other organizations. Language is the ―cement‖ that holds these social groups together. Though language we can share ideas and experiences.(4)The human mouth and throat are so constructed that we can utter a variety sounds. Language is the device for matching certain combinations of sounds with the symbols for things, ideas and emotions. our brains think in symbols---words and sentences---as well as in the images that we receive from our senses. Thus we can turn experiences into symbols and communicate to other people through the use of language. Any one individual, therefore, can learn much more from others than he or she can discover alone. Language enables people to pass ideas from group to group and from generation to generation. Language is part of culture. Culture, in this sense, means all those customs, skills, and attitude that are part of the behavior of a particular group. The way you live, what you think, and what you want in life are all affected by the culture of the group in which you are raised. Groups of people live in different ways. They may different skills, organizations, and art forms. Their family life may be completely different from yours. Human beings are inventive animals. They can even decide to change their cultures in order to meet new situations. They can choose to live in many environments and in a wide variety of ways.(5)Of all living things, only human beings can choose where and how they want to live and then modify the physical environment to help themselves realize these choices. Acquiring the wisdom to make wise choices is the enduring challenge of being human. 31、An individual human being lost in a wilderness A、longs for a life among other people B、can do many things C、keep talking all the time D、Both A and B 32、What is the most important thing that helps humans to form social groups?
