Reading Comprehension

Directions:There are two 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.

Questions 56-60 are based on Passage One:

Passage One

A recent study indicates that the “short sleepers” had been more or l

ess average in their sleep

needs

until

the

men

were

in

their

teens.

But

at

about

age

15

or

so,

the

men

voluntarily

began

cutting down their nightly sleep time because of pressures from school, work, and other activities.

These men tended to view their nightly periods of unconsciousness as bothersome interruptions in

their daily routines.

In general, these “short sleepers” appeared ambitious, active, energetic, cheerful, conformist

in their opinions, and very sure about their career choices. They often held several jobs at once, or

work full

?or part?time while going to school. And many of them had a strong urge to appear

“normal” or “acceptable” to their friends and associates.

When

asked

to

recall

their

dreams,

the

“short

sleepers”

did

poorly.

More

than

this,

they

seemed

to

prefer

not

remembering.

In

similar

fashion,

their

usual

way

of

dealing

with

psychological problems was to deny that the problem existed, and then to keep busy in the hope

that the trouble would go away.

The

sleep

patterns

of

the

“short

sleepers”

were

similar

to,

but

less

extreme

than,

sleep

patterns

shown by many mental patients categorized as manic.

The “long sleepers” were quite different indeed. According to the study, these young men had

lengthy

sleeps

since

childhood.

They

seemed

to

enjoy

their

sleep,

protected

it,

and

were

quite

concerned when they were occasionally deprived of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest. They

tended to recall their dreams much better than did the “short sleepers”.

Many

of

the

“long

sleepers”

wer

e

shy,

anxious,

introverted,

inhibited,

passive,

mildly

depressed,

and

unsure

of

themselves

(particularly

in

social

situations).

Several

openly

state

that

sleep was an escape from their daily problems.

41. According to the study, (

)

。

A. many short sleepers need less sleep by nature

B. many short sleepers are obliged to reduce their nightly sleep time because they are busy with

their work

C. long sleepers sleep a longer period of time during the day

D. many long sleepers preserve their sleeping habit formed during their childhood

42

. Many “short sleepers” are likely to hold the view that

(

)

。

A. sleep is a withdrawal from the reality

B. sleep interferes with their sound judgment

C. sleep is the least expensive item on their routine program

D. sleep is the best way to deal with psychological troubles

43. It is stated in the third paragraph that short sleepers (

)

。

A. are ideally vigorous even under the pressures of life

B. often neglect the consequences of inadequate sleep

C. do not know how to relax properly

D. are more unlikely to run into mental problems

44. When sometimes they cannot enjoy adequate sleep, the long sleepers might (

)

。

A. appear disturbed

B. become energetic

C. feel dissatisfied

D. be extremely depressed

45. Which of the following is NOT included in the passage?(

)

。

A. If one sleeps inadequately, his performance suffers and his memory is weakened.

B.

The

sleep

patterns

of short

sleepers are

exactly

the

same

as

those

shown

by

many

mental

patients.

C. Long and short sleepers differ in their attitudes towards sleep.

D. Short sleepers would be better off with more rest.

Questions 61

—

65 are based on Passage Two:

Passage Two

As the 21st century begins, a number of leaders in politics, education, and other professions

believe that the US must adopt some new values to go along with the old traditional ones. What

new

values

should

Americans

adopt?

This

is

a

very

difficult

question

to

answer.

Certainly,

a

greater value should be placed on the conservation of natural reasources; Americans should learn

to use less and waste less. But conservation has never been a strong value to Americans, who have

believed that their country offered an endless,abundant supply of natural resources.

Recently,

progress

has

been

made

—

more

and

more

Americans

are

recycling

their

paper,cans,bottles,and

other

goods

—

but

old

wasteful

habits

died

hard.

Furthermore,the

need

to

protect

the

environment

may

conflict

with

the

need

for

jobs,as

in

the

Northwest

,where

conservationists battle lumber companies that want to cut down ancient redwood trees. A belief in

the value of conservation is still compared with other

American values; it can become stronger

only as Americans see the need for it more clearly.

In

addition,Americans

may

need

to

place

a

strong

value

on

cooperation

on

a

national

scale

to

achieve

important

national

objectives.

The

American

idea

of

the

national

good

has

never

been

based

on

national

cooperation

but

rather

on

the

freedom

of

the

individual,

maintaining

those

conditions

that

provide

the

greatest

freedom

and

prosperity

for

the

individual .

It

is

far

more

difficult

for

Americans

to

accept

shared

sacrifice

for

the

common

good

and

well

?being

of

the

entire

country.

For

example

,although

the

majority

of

Americans

believe

that

it

is

extremely

important to balance the national budget and reduce the deficit, they do not want to see cuts in

government programs that benefit them personally.

The

American

value

of

competition

also

hinders

the

development

of

a

spirit

of

national

cooperation. Competition sometimes encourages feelings of suspicion rather than the mutual trust

that

is

necessary

for

successful

national

gh

Americans

often

cooperate

successfully

on

the

local

level

—

in

neighborhood

groups

and

churches,

for

example,

on

the

national level, they may see themselves as part of an interest group that is competing with other

interest groups for government funds. A request by the national government for shared sacrifice

may

be

seen

as

coercive

and

destructive

rather

than

voluntary

and

constructive.

However,

the

demands

for

the

21st

century

may

compel

Americans

to

place

a

greater

value

on

national

cooperation to solve problems that affect them all, directly and indirectly.

46. The best TITLE of this passage could be (

)

。

A. Which is Better, New V

alue or Old Value?

B. Conservation vs. Need for Jobs

C. The Need for New National Values

D. Cooperation and Competition

47. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?(

)

。

A.

Some

Americans

would

not

accept

the

value

of

conservation

and

environment

protection,

because this value would probably make them unemployed.

B. Many Americans have been used to wasting, so it will be difficult for them to accept the new

value of conservation.

C. Some old values are still having a strong influence on American people, although they are

harmful in this new age.

D. Most Americans have fully realized the need to protect the environment, so they have taken

measures to recycle junked goods.

48. What is the basis for the American notion of national good?(

)

。

A. Individual freedom.

B. Personal property.

C. National cooperation.

D. Both A and B.

49. The author gave an example in the third paragraph in order to (

)

。

A. emphasize the need to place a stronger value on national cooperation

B. explain why the American idea has been based on individual freedom
