Questions 16
through 20 refer to the following passage:
The greatest contribution to
civilization in the century may well be the air-
conditioning-
and
American
leads
just
as
amazing
is
the
speed
with
which
this
situation
came
to
be.
Air-conditioning began to spread in
industries as a production aid during World War
Ⅱ
. Today
most
Americans need to take air-conditioning for
granted to homes, offices, factories, theatres,
shops, studios, schools, hotels, and
restaurants.
But not everybody is aware that high
cost and easy comfort are merely two of the
effects
of the vast cooling of
American. In fact, air conditioning has
substantially altered the country’s
character and customs.
Many of the byproducts are
so conspicuous that they are scarcely noticed. To
begin with,
air-conditioning
transformed
the
face
of
America
by
making
possible
those
glassy,
boxy,
sealed-in
skyscrapers.
It
has
been
indispensable,
no
less,
to
the
functioning
of
sensitive
advanced
computers,
whose
high
operating
temperatures
require
that
they
be
constantly
cooled. .
It
has,
at
will,
forced
families
into
retreating
into
families
with
closed
doors
and
shut
windows,
reducing the interactions of neighborhood
life. It is really surprising that the
public’s
often noted withdrawal into
self-pursuit and privacy has coincided with the
historic spread of
air-conditioning.
Though science has little studied how habitual
air-conditioning affects mind
and
body,
some
medical
experts
suggest
that,
like
other
technical
avoidance
of
natural
variations in climate, air-conditioning
may damage the human capacity to adapt to stress.
If so,
air-conditioning is only like
many other greatly useful technical developments
that liberate man
from
nature
by
increasing
his
productivity
and
power
in
some
way
-
while
indirectly
weakening him in
others.

Questions 21 through 25 refer to the
following passage:
Now let us look at
how we read. When we read a printed text, our eyes
move across a
page in short, jerky
movement. We recognize words usually when our eyes
are still when they
fixate. Each time
they fixate, we see a group of words. This is
known as the recognition span or
the
visual
span.
The
length
of
time
of
which
the
eyes
stop
---the
duration
of
the
fixation
----varies
considerably from person to person. It also varies
within any one person according to
his
purpose in reading and his familiarity with the
text. Furthermore, it can be affected by such
factors as lighting and tiredness.
Unfortunately,
in
the
past,
many
reading
improvement
courses
have
concentrated
too
much on how our eyes move across the
printed page. As a result of this misleading
emphasis
on the purely visual aspects
of reading, numerous exercises have been devised
to train the eyes
to see more words at
one fixation. For instance, in some exercises,
words are flashed on to a
screen for,
say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second. One of
the exercises has required students to
fix their eyes on some central point,
taking in the words on either side. Such word
patterns are
often constructed in the
shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes
in more and more
words
at
each
successive
fixation.
All
these
exercises
are
very
clever,
but
it’s
one
thing
to
improve
a person’s ability to see words and quite another
thing to improve his ability to read a
text
efficiently.
Reading
requires
the
ability
to
understand
the
relationship
between
words.
Consequently, for
these reasons, many experts have now begun to
question the usefulness of
eye
training, especially
since any
approach which trains
a
person to
read isolated words
and
phrases would seem
unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.
(
) 21. The time of the
recognition span can be affected by the following
facts except
________ .
A.
one’s familiarity with the text

graph?
A. The ability to see words is not

B. The reading
exercises mentioned can’t help to improve both the
ability to see and
to comprehend words.
C. The reading
exercises ment
ioned can’t help to
improve an efficient reading.
D. The reading
exercises mentioned has done a great job to
improve one’s ability to
see words.
(
) 24. Which of
the following is NOT true?
A. The visual span is a word or a group
of words we see each time.
B. Many experts began to question the
efficiency of eye training.
C. The emphasis on the
purely visual aspects is misleading.
D. The eye training will
help readers in reading a continuous text.
(
) 25. The tune
of the author in writing this article is ________
A critical
B neutral
C pessimistic
D optimistic
Questions 26 through 30
refer to the following passage:
Until
the 1980s, the American homeless population
comprised mainly older males. Today,
homelessness
strikes
much
younger
part
of
society.
In
fact,
a
25-city
survey
by
the
U.
S.
Conference
of Mayors in 1987 found that families with
children make up the fastest growing
part
of
the
homeless
population.
Many
homeless
children
gather
in
inner
cities;
this
transient(

and
frequently
frightened
student
population
creates
additional
problems
—
both
legal
and
educational
—
for
already
overburdened
urban
school
administrators and
teachers.
Estimates
of
the
number
of
homeless
Americans
range
from
350,000
to
three
million.
Likewise,
estimates
of
the
number
of
homeless
school
children
vary
radically.
A
U.S.
Department
of
Education
report,
based
on
state
estimates,
states
that
there
are
220,000
homeless school-age children, about a
third of whom do not attend school on a regular
basis,
But the National Coalition for
the Homeless estimates that there are at least two
times as many
homeless children, and
that less than half of them attend school
regularly.
One part of the
homeless population that is particularly difficult
to count consists of the
