二、阅读理解（共 2 道试题，共 20 分。）V 1.
People can be addicted to different things ─ e.g., alcohol, drugs,
certain foods, or even television. People who have such an addiction are
compulsive, i.e., they have a very powerful psychological need that they
feel they must satisfy. According to psychologists, many people are
compulsive spenders; They feel that they must spend money. This
compulsion, like most others, is irrational ─ impossible to explain
reasonably. For compulsive spenders who buy on credit, charge accounts are
even more exciting than money. In other words, compulsive spenders feel
that with credit, they can do anything. Their pleasure in spending
enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from
the things they buy.
There is even a special psychology of bargain-hunting. To save money,
of course, most people look for sales, low prices, and discounts.
Compulsive bargain hunters, however, often buy things that they don’t need
just because they are cheap. They want to believe that they are helping
their budgets, but they are really playing an exciting game; when they can
buy something for less than other people, they feel that they are winning.
Most people, experts claim, have two reasons for their behavior: a good
reason for the things that they do and the real reason.
It is not only scientists, of course, who understand the psychology of
spending habits, but also business people. Stores, companies, and
advertisers use psychology to increase business. They consider people’s
needs for love, power, or influence, their basic values, their beliefs and
opinions, and so on in their advertising and sales methods.
Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy” to help
individuals solve their personality problems. In the same way, they can
help people who feel that they have problems with money.1). According to
the psychologists a compulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of
money （ ） .
A. and takes great pleasure from what he or she buys
B. in order to satisfy his or her basic needs in life
C. just to meet his or her strong psychological need
D. entirely with an irrational eagerness
满分：2分
2). According to the writer, compulsive bargain hunters are in constant
search of the lowest possible prices （） .
A. because they want to save money to help their budgets
B. because they can openly boast of their triumph over others in getting
things for less
C. and will not have money problems if they can keep to their budgets
D. but they seldom admit they feel satisfied if they can get things for
less than others
满分：2分
3). Which of the following is TRUE?
A. All people spend money for exactly the same reason that they need to
buy things.
B.
Business people and advertisers can use the psychology of money to
increase salesC. Business people understand the psychology of compulsive
buying better than scientists do
D. compulsive bargain hunters do not have problems with money.
满分：2分

A. the psychology of money – spending habits

compulsive bargain hunters（）
A. are really unreasonable

Geology is a natural science. With it men can discover all kinds of
useful minerals. Geology studies the earth. But of the three spheres, the
atmosphere, the hydrosphere and the lithosphere, it only directly studies
the lithosphere. It studies the composition and distribution of material
in the earth’s crust. It studies also the formation, changes and
development of rocks and minerals in the earth’s crust.
Geology is a very complex science. There are many branches in
geology. Mineralogy is the science of the minerals. Petrology is the
science of the rocks. Geomorphology deals with origin of landscapes and
changes in them. Historical geology traces the evolution and development
of the earth and of the animals and plants on it. Stratigraphy studies the
sequence of the rocks in the earth’s crust. Paleontology deals with the
ancient animals and plants. These are just a few of the most important
branches of geology.
Geology is a very important science. We depend upon geology for the
discovery of mineral deposits needed by the various industries. A lot of
minerals are used as fuel and raw materials. Without them
industrialization is impossible. Minerals are also used as fertilizers in
agriculture. China is very rich in mineral deposits of all kinds. The
study of geology will help us to discover them.
Petroleum occurs widely in the earth as gas, liquid, semisolid, or
solid, or in more than one of these states at a single place. Chemically
any petroleum is an extremely complex mixture of hydrocarbon (hydrogen and
carbon) compounds, with minor amounts of nitrogen, oxygen, and sulfur as
impurities. Liquid petroleum, which is called crude oil to distinguish it
from refined oil, is the most important commercially. It consists chiefly
of the liquid hydrocarbons, with varying amounts of dissolved gases,
bitumens, and impurities.
Petroleum gas, commonly called natural gas to distinguish it from
manufactured gas, consists of the lighter paraffin hydrocarbons, of which
the most abundant is methane gas (CH4). The semisolid and solid forms of
petroleum consist of the heavy hydrocarbons and bitumens.
Geology plays an important role in the search for oil and natural
gas. Four prerequisites are necessary for oil (and gas) to accumulate in
commercial quantities in an area: (1) The oil originates in a source bed,
and a marine shale, once a black mud rich in organic compounds, is thought
to be a common source rock. (2) The oil then migrates to a permeable
reservoir rock, and to do this it may travel for long distances both
vertically and horizontally. Oil cannot move through the tiny openings of
the shale source beds rapidly enough to be extracted profitably. (3) A
nonpermeable layer must occur above a reservoir bed. Since oil is lighter
than water, it tends to move upward through openings and cracks until it
encounters impervious beds that it cannot penetrate. The oil may then
accumulate beneath the impervious layers. Some gas occurs in solution
within the oil, and if enough is present it separates out to occupy the
uppermost region of such a trap. (4) A favorable structure must exist to
concentrate the oil and anticlines, salt plugs, and faults are common
examples. A fault zone may itself be impervious, or faulting may have
shifted an impervious bed so that it now blocks a reservoir bed.
Stratigraphic traps tend to be more difficult to locate and may form where
tilted reservoir beds are overlain unconformably by impervious layers or
where the reservoir beds become thinner up-dip and wedge out within
enclosing impervious beds. Thus oil that was once distributed in sparse
amounts throughout a very large volume of rock may now be richly
concentrated within the uppermost portions of favorable reservoir rocks.
The task of the geologist is the location of promising structures
in regions where rocks are favorable for the occurrence of the other
prerequisites. Drilling a hole is then the only known method of
determining whether or not oil is present in the structure. 1). What is
mainly dealt with in the passage?
A. The formation of oil.
B. The formation of rocks.
C.The general introduction of geology.
D. The roles of geology in finding oil.
满分：2分
2). Geology is a natural science and it does NOT study______.
A.the minerals in the earth’s crust
B. the rocks in the earth’s crust
C. the evolution and development of the earth
D.the origin of the atmosphere surrounding the earth
满分：2分
3). One prerequisite for oil to accumulate in quantity is that the oil
originates in ______.
A. a source rock
B. a black mud
C. the seawater
D. organic compounds
满分：2分
4). In the formation of oil, a nonpermeable layer above a reservoir bed is
necessary because it can ______.
A. accelerate the travel speed of the oil
B. hinder the oil to move upward
C. help the oil to move upward
D. help people to discover the oil
满分：2分
5). Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Drilling a hole is one of the known methods of determining whether or
not oil is present in the structure.
B. A geologist usually tries to locate promising structures in regions
where rocks are favorable for the occurrence of the other prerequisites.
C. An unfavorable structure must exist to concentrate the oil.
D. A permeable layer must occur above a reservoir bed.

A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so-called digital
divide — the division of the world into the info(information) rich and the
info poor. And that(1)does exist today. My wife and I lectured about
this looming danger twenty years ago. What was less(2)then, however,
were the new, positive (3)that work against the digital divide.(4) ,
there are reasons to be(5) .
There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will
narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more(6) , it is in the
interest of business to universalize access—after all, the more people
online, the more potential(7)there are. More and more(8), afraid
their countries will be left(9), want to spread Internet access.
Within the next decade or two, one to two billion people on the planet
will be(10) together. As a result, I now believe the digital divide will
(11)rather than widen in the years ahead. And that is very good news
because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for(12)world
poverty that we’ve ever had.
Of course, the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to(13)
poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has(14)
potential.
To(15)advantage of this tool, some poor countries will have to get
over their outdated anti-colonial prejudices (16)respect to foreign
investment. Countries that still think foreign investment is a/an(17)
of their sovereignty（主权）might well study the history of infrastructure
(the basic structural foundations of a society) in the United States. When
the United States(18)its industrial infrastructure, it didn’t have the
capital to do so. And that is(19)America’s Second Wave infrastructure—
