Because of this, most people think that craft no longer exist
23、s.One of the ways these people wrongly support their view is by pointing to 100-year-old homes which are still solid, and arguing that it is the craftsmanship that is responsible for their durability. “Homes in those days were well-built,” they say. No doubt these homes were well-built, but what the
24、se people have done is mix up the quality of material used in the house with the quality of the craftsmanship.Homes today could be built to last just as long as those old homes if people were willing or able to pay the price. For example, most people can no longer afford solid oak stairways, althoug
25、h they were once fairly common in older homes. Nor can they afford the high labor cost of employing a carpenter to build the stairway. Yet if someone can pay the high cost, there are still plenty of carpenters around able to make those stairways. And not only would these carpenters know how to build
26、 them, they would probably do a better job than carpenters of old.One thing the modern carpenter has which enables him to do a better job is much more advanced tools. Such tools as laser beams and powerplanes help them lay out a house better and make more precision cuts on the wood. Also, it is not
27、uncommon say more to find carpenters with college degrees and carpenters with a solid knowledge of mathematics, which would enable them to deal with more difficult house designs.The problem of modern quality, then, really boils down to the problem of material, for the modern carpenter is just as abl
28、e to produce craftsmanship as the carpenter of fifty years ago, but only if given proper material.51. Compared to the carpenters in the past, modern carpenters are . A. more successful B. more learned C. more imaginative D. more hardworking52. What does the underlined work “they” (paragraph 2) refer
29、 to? A. Carpenters who are fond of oak stairways. B. Carpenters who have college degrees. C. People who think highly of carpenters of old. D. People who think that modern material is of low quality.53. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss? A. People in the past preferred to use oak to build
30、stairways. B. It is now expensive to employ a carpenter. C. Modern houses last as long as the old ones. D. Good carpenters still exist in modern times.54. What would be the best title for the text? A. Is Craft Dead?B. Craft, Back to Life? C. History of CraftsmanshipD. Carpenters Today and YesterdayB
31、Grown-ups know that people and objects are solid. At the movies, we know that if we reach out to touch Tom Cruise, all we will feel is air. But does a baby have this understanding?To see whether babies know objects are solid, T. Bower designed a method for projecting an optical illusion of a hanging
32、 ball. His plan was to first give babies a real ball, one they could reach out and touch, and then to show them the illusion. If they knew that objects are solid and they reached out for the illusion and found empty air, they could be expected to show surprise in their faces and movements. All the 1
33、6- to 24-week-old babies tested were surprised when they reached for the illusion and found that the ball was not there.Grown-ups also have a sense of object permanence,We know that if we put a box in a room and lock the door, the box will still be there when we come back. But does a baby realize th
34、at a ball that rolls under a chair does not disappear and go to never-never land?Experiments done by Bower suggest that babies develop a sense of object permanence when they are about 18 weeks old. In his experiments, Bower used a toy train that went behind a screen. When 16-week-old and 22-week-old
35、 babies watched the toy train disappear behind the left side of the screen, they looked to the right, expecting it to reappear. If the experimenter took the train off the table and lifted the screen, all the babies seemed surprised not to see the train. This seems to show that all the babies had a s
36、ense of object permanence. But the second part of the experiment showed that this was not really the case. The researcher substituted a ball for the train when it went behind the screen. The 22-week-old babies seemed surprised and looked back to the left side for the train. But the 16-week-old babie
37、s did not seem to notice the switch. Thus, the 16-week-old babies seem to have a sense of “something permanence,” while the 22-week-old babies had a sense of object permanence related to a particular object.55. The passage is mainly about . A. babies understanding of objects B. effects of experiment
38、s on babies C. babies sense of sight D. different tests on babies feelings56.In Paragraph 3,“object permanence” means that when out of sight, an object . A. still existsB. keeps its shapeC. still stays solid D. is beyond reach57. What did Bower use in his experiments? A. A chair.B. A screen.C. A fil
39、m.D. A box.58. Which of the following statements is true? A. The babies didnt have a sense of direction. B. The older babies preferred toy trains to balls. C. The younger babies liked looking for missing objects. D. The babies couldnt tell a ball from its optical illusion.CWe are all interested in e
40、quality, but while some people try to protect the school and examination system in the name of equality, others, still in the name of equality, want only to destroy it.Any society which is interested in equality of opportunity and standards of achievement must regularly test its pupils. The standard
41、s may be changed no examination is perfect but to have no tests or examination would mean the end of equality and of standards. There are groups of people who oppose this view and who do not believe either in examinations or in any controls in schools or on teachers. This would mean that everything
42、would depend on luck since every pupil would depend on the efficiency the values and the purpose of each teacher.Without examinations, employers will look for employees from the highly respected schools and from families known to them a form of favouritism will replace equality at the moment. The br
43、ight child from an ill-respected school can show certificates to prove he or she is suitable for a job, while the lack of certificate indicates the unsuitability of a dull child attending a well-respected school. This defense of excellence and opportunity would disappear if examinations were taken a
44、way, and the bright child from a poor family would be a prisoner of his or her schools reputation, unable to compete for employment with the child from the favoured school.The opponents of the examination system suggest that examinations are an evil force because they show differences between pupils
45、. According to these people, there must be no special, different, academic class. They have even suggested that there should be no form of difference in sport or any other area: all jobs or posts should be filled by unsystematic selection. The selection would be made by people who themselves are pro
46、bably selected by some computer.59.The word “favouritism” in paragraph 3 is used to describe the phenomenon that .A. bright children also need certificates to get satisfying jobs.B. poor children with certificates are favoured in job markets.C. children from well-respected schools tend to have good
47、jobs.D. children attending ordinary schools achieve great success.60. What would happen if examinations were taken away according to the author?A. Schools for bright children would lose their reputation.B. There would be more opportunities and excellence.C. Children from poor families would be able
48、to change their schools.D. Childrens job opportunity would be affected by their school reputation.61. The opponents of the examination system will agree that .A. jobs should not be assigned by systematic selectionB. computers should be selected to take over many jobs.C. special classes are necessary
49、 to keep the school standardsD. schools with academic subjects should be done away with62. The passage mainly focuses on .A. schools and certificatesB. examination and equalityC. opportunity and employmentD. standards and reputationDHoliday Inns and McDonalds. both saw unmatched growth in the 1960s.
50、 Their growth opened another direct business operation franchising.These operations have the same general pattern. The franchisor, the parent company, first establishes a successful retail business. As it expands, it sees a profit potential in offering others the right to open similar business under
51、 its name. The parent companys methods and means of identification with consumers are included in this right. The parent company supplies skill, and may build and rent stores to franchisees. For these advantages the franchisee pays the franchisor a considerable fee. However, some of the advantages a
52、nd disadvantages are different.By extending a “proven” marketing method, a parent can profit in several ways. First, the franchisees purchase price gives the parent an immediate return on the plan. Then the sale of supplies to the franchisee provides a continuing source of profits. As new businesses
53、 are added and the companys reputation spreads, the values of the franchise increases and sales of franchises become easier. The snowballing effect can be dramatic. Such growth, too, bring into play the economies of scale. Regional or national advertising that might be financially impossible for a f
54、ranchisor with 20 franchises could be profitable for one with 40.The parent, then, finds immediate gains from the opportunity to expand markets on the basis of reputation alone, without having to put up capital or take the risk of owning retail stores. Added to this advantage is a less obvious but m
55、aterial one, Skilled, responsible retail managers are rare. People who invest their capital in franchises, though, probably come closer to the ideal than do paid managers. In fact, the franchisee is an independent store operator working for the franchisor, but without an independents freedom to drop
56、 supplies at will. Of course the factorys costs of selling supplies are less. But also certainly the franchisee buying goods that have had broad consumer acceptance will not casually change supplies, even when the contract permits. If the hamburger is not what the customer expected, they may not ret
57、urn. Having paid for the goodwill, the franchisee wont thoughtlessly destroy it.63. Franchising refers to a business operation in which a successful parent company .A. sells name-brand goods to a private investorB. rents proven ideas and techniques for investmentC. sells the right, the guidance to a
58、 business under its nameD. takes no advertising responsibility for individual investors64. The advantages of franchising to the parent company are all the following EXCEPT .A. an immediate investment return B. the profit from the sale of suppliesC. the ownership of additional retail stores D. the po
59、ssibility of profitable advertising65. The passage mainly tells the reader .A. the advantages and disadvantages of franchising B. the benefits of franchising to the franchisorC. the unmatched economic growth in the 1960s D. some regional and national business operation66. What will the author probab
60、ly discuss after the last paragraph?A. More advantages of franchising. B. Negative aspects related to franchising.C. The standard of consumer acceptance. D. Risks of investment besides franchising E“Oh please God, no, no!” Stephen Eldredge cried out when he saw his wife, Shelli, badly wounded on the
61、 side of the road. She had broken actually every long bone in her body, along with her pelvis, jaw, and cheekbones. He was terrified his bride would bleed to death.Stephen and Shelli had married just six months before near their home in South Jordan, Utah. They were in Hawaii on a family vacation wi
62、th two of their sons. The family had rented electric motors and headed towards a nature preserve near Waikiki. But Shelli had fallen behind and the family turned back to make sure she was okay.Shelli lost so much blood that her heart couldnt function properly and she went into shock at the hospital.
63、 Physicians were able to make her come to herself. On the first and second days there, she lived through half a dozen operations. On day three, the worst of Stephens fears came true. Shelli didnt wake. She had shown heart failure and lung failure. “I thought every heartbeat would be her last,” Steph
64、en says.As days passed with no change, one doctor gently asked if it was time to let Shelli go. An MRI（核磁共振）showed her brain didnt have much chance of supporting life. Stephen couldnt bear the thought of trapping his wifes beautiful spirit in a body that would never work. If he kept her alive, what
65、kind of life would she have ? He called family, religious leaders, and physician friends in Utah for guidance.And he decided there still was a chance.The family moved Shelli to a Utah hospital closer to home. In the next few weeks she started opening her eyes, but it wasnt entirely clear how conscio
66、us she was. Nearly seven weeks after the accident, Stephen was joking with his sister in the hospital room when he saw Shelli smile, a big toothy grin. “Did you understand that?” he asked. She smiled again. Stephen fell to his knees in thanks.Shellis recovery has been slow but steady. Initially, she
67、 couldn t remember much of the previous months, including her own wedding. Shelli has endured 17 operations so far and may require more surgery. She will definitely need more months of recovery. But she is able to walk. “Shes got her life back. Shes able to love and be loved, and be the person she w
68、as.” Elovie says.When Shelli hears about each step in her recovery, she calls it “miracle after miracle”. As for his experience, Stephen says, “This is a story of fear that was slowly replaced by faith.”67. We learn from the first two paragraphs that .A. Stephen and Shelli left home to hold the wedd
69、ing ceremony.B. Shelli was mainly wounded in the backC. the couple were in Hawaii when the accident happenedD. the accident happened on their way to Waikiki68. In the hospital room Shelli smiled for the first time after the accident because .A. she liked people telling jokes. B. she had remembered a
70、ll that had happenedC. she was excited that she got her life back D. she understood the joke being talked about69. By saying “miracle after miracle”, Shelli means that .A. she suffered what a terrible accident B. she appreciated the care of her husband so muchC. the love for her family got her life
71、back D. it really surprised her that she survived so many operations70. After reading the passage, what impresses us most may be that.A. Stephens not giving up B. the doctors skill and hard work C. Shellis bravery and persistence D. the couples faith第四部分：书面表达（共两节，满分50分）第一节：完成句子（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）71.
