Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B,
29、C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Although one might not think so from some of the criticism of it, advertising is essential to the kind of society in which people in the United Kingdom, and a very _50_ proportion of the world at large, live. Advertising
30、is necessary as a _51_ of communicating with others, of telling them about the goods and services that are offered, and of which most of them would never _52_ to hear at all if it were not for advertising. And advertising helps a great deal to promote a _53_ standard of living.In talking about adver
31、tising, one should not think only _54_ a commercial on television, or an advertisement in the newspapers or periodicals. In its widest _55_ , advertising includes a host of other _56_ such as packaging, shop displays and in the sense of communication even the spoken word of the salesman. _57_ , the
32、roots of advertising are to be found in the market place.For many years it was thought that it was enough to _58_ goods and supply services, h is only more _59_ that it has become increasingly understood that the production of goods is a waste of resources _60_ those goods can be sold at a fair pric
33、e within a _61_ time span. In the competitive society in which we live, it is essential that we go out and sell what we have to offer, and advertising plays an important role in this respect, whether selling at home or in _62_ markets. Approximately 2 percent of the UK gross national product is spen
34、t on advertising. But it must not be thought that this advertising tries to sell goods to consumers who do not want them. Of course, advertising does try to attract the interest of the _63_ consumer, but if the articles when _64_ does not match up to the standards that the advertising suggests that
35、it will, it is obviously exceedingly unlikely that the article will sell well.50.A.enjoyableB.considerableC.agreeableD.knowledgeable51.A.dataB.proportionC.meansD.messages52.A.getB.putC.findD.avoid53.A.demandingB.raisingC.creatingD.rising54.A.in honor ofB.in case ofC.in terms ofD.in favor of55.A.sens

47、nly intended to _.A. encourage the British to travel in China B. attract the British to traditional Chinese foodC. offer service of booking air tickets to touristsD. provide the British with a better understanding of Shanghai(B)There are two factors which determine an individuals intelligence. The f
48、irst is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the
49、 individual 一 the sort of environment in which he is reared. If an individual is handicapped environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individuals intelli
50、gence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster homes. Peter was
51、 reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environme
52、ntal difference continued until the twins were in their teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Marks I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical bra
53、ins, would have tested at roughly the same level.69. According to the passage, the average I.Q. is _.A. 85 B. 100 C. 110 D. 125 70. This passage suggests that an individuals I.Q. _. A. can be predicted at birth B. is inherited from his parentsC. stays the same throughout his life D. can be increased
54、 by education 71. This selection can best be titled_. A. Measuring Your Intelligence B. Intelligence and Environment C. The Case of Peter and Mark D. How the brain Influences Intelligence (C)At some time in your life you may have a strong desire to do something strange or terrible. However, chances
55、are that you dont act on your impulse, but let it pass instead. You know that to commit the action is wrong in some way and that other people will not accept your behavior.Perhaps the most interesting thing about the phenomenon of taboo (禁忌的) behavior is how it can change over the years within the s
56、ame society, how certain behavior and attitudes once considered taboo can become perfectly acceptable and natural at another point in time. Topics such as death, for example, were once considered so upsetting and unpleasant that it was a taboo to even talk about them. Now with the publication of imp
57、ortant books such as On Death and Dying and Learning to Say Goodbye, people have become more aware of the importance of expressing feelings about death and, as a result, are more willing to talk about this taboo subject.One of the newest taboos in American society is the topic of fat. Unlike many ot
58、her taboos, fat is a topic that Americans talk about constantly. Its not taboo to talk about fat; its taboo to be fat. The “in” look is thin, not fat. In the work world, most companies prefer youthful-looking, trim executives to sell their image as well as their products to the public. The thin look
59、 is associated with youth, vigor, and success. The fat person, on the other hand, is thought of as lazy and lacking in energy, self-discipline, and self-respect. In an image-conscious society like the U.S., thin is “in”, fat is “out”.Its not surprising, then, that millions of Americans have become o
60、bsessed (着迷) with staying slim and “in shape”. The pursuit of a youthful physical appearance is not, however, the sole reason for Americas obsession with diet and exercise. Recent research has shown the critical importance of diet and exercise for personal health. As in most technologically develope
61、d nations, the life-style of North Americans has changed dramatically during the course of the last century. Modern machines do all the physical labor that people were once forced to do by hand. Cars and buses transport us quickly from point to point. As a result of inactivity and disuse, peoples bo
62、dies can easily become weak and vulnerable to disease. In an effort to avoid such a fate, millions of Americans are spending more of their time exercising every day.72. From the passage we can infer taboo is.A. a strong desire to do something strange or terribleB. a crime committed on impulse commit
63、tedC. behavior considered unacceptable in societys eyesD. an unfavorable impression left on other people73. Based on the ideas presented in the passage we can conclude being fat.A. will always remain a tabooB. is not considered a taboo by most peopleC. has long been a tabooD. may no longer be a tabo
64、o some day74. In the U.S., thin is “in”, fat is “out”, this means.A. thin is “inside”, fat is “outside”B. thin is “devoted”, fat is “lazy”C. thin is “youthful”, fat is “spiritless”D. thin is “fashionable”, fat is “unfashionable”75. The main reason the passage gives for why so many Americans are exer
65、cising regularly is _.A. their changed life-styleB. their eagerness to stay thin and youthfulC. their appreciation of the importance of exerciseD. the encouragement they have received from their companiesSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from the list
66、A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.A. Fathers are easier to satisfy on their special date.B. Greeting cards are the most popular gifts for Dads.C. People traced the origin oi Fathers Day.D. Fathers have higher expectations for their special date.E. New neckties
67、are popular presents on Fathers Day.F. People tend to spend more on Mothers Day than on Fathers Day.76.On Fathers Day 2009, which falls on Sunday, June 21, millions of dads across the US will open boxes, peel back tissue paper, and break into a smile as they admire their new necktie 一 still among th
68、e most popular Fathers Day gifts.77.That smile is almost certainly genuine, according to psychology lecturer Nicole Gilbert Cote at the University of Massachusetts in Amherst. Her research shows that even though dads get less attention on fathers day than moms do on Mothers Day, dads are more likely
69、 to be satisfied on their special date. Part of the reason seems to be that moms expect to be relieved of stereotypical chores such as cooking and cleaning up on Mothers Day, but that doesnt always happen. Dads didnt have that role in the family. “The bar is low, and dad is OK with that,” Gilbert Co
70、te said, adding that the way families even those that espouse egalitarian ideal celebrate the two holidays reinforces such stereotypes.78. Fathers low expectation means that shoppers spend less money on them than they do on moms, according to the National Retail Federation, a Washington, D.C.-based
71、trade group. The stumbling global economy, however, does mean shoppers are cutting back. In 2008, Fathers Day cost individual consumers $94.54, and Mothers Day cost $138.36. But this year, the retail group experts gift givers to spend an average of US$90, on Fathers Day. For moms, shoppers shelled o
72、ut “dad an average of US$123.89. “Dad is a little more laid-back and easier to shop for,” said federation spokesperson Kathy Grannis. “His gifts usually range from a simple tie for work to a new spatula for the grill, all of which can make dad very happy.” Mothers Day gifts tend to be more luxurious
73、 jewels, flowers, a trip to the spa, and dinner at a restaurant, for example.79. The most popular gift for Dads and often the only one hell got is a greeting card. All told, an estimated 110 million cards are sent on Fathers Day, according to the greeting card company Hallmark. This makes Fathers Da
74、y the fourth largest card sending holiday in the US, behind Mothers Day (162 million), Valentines Day (192 million), and Christmas (2.1 billion). Fifty percent of Fathers Day cards are purchased for dads and another 20 percent for husbands. The remaining 30 percent fall into a broad “other” category
75、, according to Deidre Mize, a Hallmark spokesperson. “It might be someone who served as a father role. Or it could be a stepdad,” she said. The Fathers Day card business, according to the retail federation, will ring up about $780 million this year.80.Despite all the cards given on fathers day, hall
76、mark didnt invent the holiday, Mize said. Rather, fathers day traced its origins to Spokane, Washington, where Sonora Smart-Dodd was one of six children being raised by a single dad. Inspired by a mothers day sermon she heard at church, she wanted to honor her father. So, she encouraged local church
77、es to institute the first fathers day observance in 1909. The idea caught on, and hallmark started printing fathers day cards in 1920s, Mize said. In 1972, us president Richard Nixon formally declared fathers day as the third Sunday in June.Section DDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answe
78、r the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.All we have a clock located inside our brains. Similar to your bedside alarm clock, your internal clock runs on a 24-hour cycle. This cycle, called a circadian (昼夜节奏的) rhythm, helps control when you wake, when you eat and when y
79、ou sleep.Somewhere around puberty, something happens in the timing of the biological clock. The clock pushes forward, so adolescents and teenagers are unable to fall asleep as early as they used to. When your mother tells you its time for bed, your body may be pushing you to stay up3 for several hou
80、rs more. And the light coming from your computer screen or TV could be pushing you to stay up even later. This shift is natural for teenagers. But staying up very late and sleeping late can get your bodys clock out of sync with the cycle of light and dark. It can also make it hard to get out of bed
81、in the morning and may bring other problems, too. Teenagers are put in a kind of a gray cloud (提不起精神的状态) when they dont get enough sleep, says Mary Carskadon, a sleep researcher at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. It affects their mood and their ability to think and learn.But just like
82、your alarm clock, your internal clock can be reset. In fact, it automatically resets itself every day. How? By using the light it gets through your eyes.Scientists have known for a long time that the light of day and the dark of night play important roles in setting our internal clocks. For years, r
83、esearchers thought that the signals that synchronize the bodys clock were handled through the same pathways that we use to see. But recent discoveries show that the human eye has two separate light-sensing systems. One system allows us to see. The second system tells our body whether its day or nigh
