III. ReadingComprehension. (2 points for each, altogether 30 points)
Directions: There are 4 passages followed by questions.Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A,B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers onthe answer sheet.
Passage 1Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone whocomes in contact with them. Their values—this can’t be repeated too often—arenot necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and order are notnecessarily the most important things. The social services from time to timefind themselves faced with a flat with decaying food covered by small worms,and an old person lying alone in bed, taking no notice of the worms. But is itinterfering(干涉) with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some oftheir relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some socialworkers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carryingthis concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are beingtaken with the health and safety of the old.Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The body is like acar, it needs more mechanical maintenance(机械维修，保养) as it gets older. Youcan carry this comparison right through to the provision of spare parts. Butnever forget that such operations are painful experiences, howevergood the results will be. And at what point should you stop to treat the oldbody? Is it morally right to try to push off death by seeking the developmentof drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to activate the old body, knowingthat it is designed to die? You can’t ask doctors or scientists to decide,because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they will feelbound to give them a try, on the principle that while there’s life, there’shope.When you talk to the old people, however,you are forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasantdepends less on money or on health than it does on your ability to havefun.51. What does the passage mainly tell us? _______.
A. The values are different between the oldand the young.
B. The moral problems raised by old people.
C. The personal freedom for the old.
D. Old people’s viewpoint on life.
52. We can know from the first paragraphthat_______.
A. Very old people would like to live aloneto have more personal freedom.
B. Very old people are able to keep theirroom clean.
C. Very old people like to live with theirchildren.
D. Social services have nothing to do withvery old people.
53. According tothe author, which of the following is right? _______.
A. The older a person, the more care heneeds.
B. Too much emphasis has been put on oldpeople’s values.
C. The human body can’t be compared to acar.
D. It is easy to provide spare parts forold people.
54. The underlined word “it” in the lastparagraph refers to “_______”.
A. their money or their health
B. the conclusion you come to
C. your talk to the old people
D. whether age is happy or unpleasant
Passage 2Today, ultrasonic(超声的) waves are being put to work in laboratoriesand factories. If an ultrasound generator is placed in a liquid, the waves movethe liquid back and forth hundreds of thousands of times each second. Thiscauses materials to mix quickly or to dissolve(使分解，使溶解) in liquids. Paintmanufacturers(制造商) use ultrasound to do a better job of blending colors. Thecompanies that make film for your camera find that mixing chemicals by the useof sound waves will produce a more sensitive film. The new lightweight(轻量的) type of washing machine uses ultrasonic wavesto get clothes clean. Its special ultrasound generator is put into a pail ofsoapy water containing the soiled clothes. The sound waves drive the soapywater back and forth through the cloth so fast that everything is soon clean.There is also a new kind of dishwasher that works in much the same way. Ultrasonic waves can shake a liquid so fast that tiny holes form allthrough it. The liquid is actually torn apart by this action. Almost as soon asthese holes are made, they fall together again. The result is a powerfulpounding action. In the dairy industry this is used for the double purpose ofmaking homogenized(使均匀，使匀质) milk and sterilizing(使无菌) it atthe same time. If you look at some raw milk with a microscope, you find that itis made up of little drops of butter fat floating around in a watery liquid. Inorder to make milk easier to digest, these fat droplets(微粒) may bebroken up by forcing the milk through very small openings. The result is calledhomogenized milk. When the ultrasonic method is used, the sound waves not onlybreak up the droplets but also kill the germs in the milk by pounding them topieces. 55. Why does a paint manufacturer useultrasound to do a better job of blending colors? _______.
A. Because it is cheap to use ultrasound toblend colors.
B. Because the waves move the liquid soquickly that it can make materials mix quickly or dissolve in liquids.
C. Because they can mix chemicals by theuse of sound waves.
D. Because the waves can clean the paint.
56. What properties does ultrasound wavehave? _______.
A. Homogenizes and sterilizes the milk.
B. Mix materials and break droplets.
C. Kill germs and sterilize milk.
D. Move liquids quickly.
57. What exists in the raw milk? _______.
A. Little drops of butter fat.
B. Small holes.
C. Fat droplets and germs.
D. Chemicals.
58. Where is ultrasound wave not used? _______.
A. In the paint manufacture.
B. In the shop mixing bread flour.
C. In the film-making company.
D. In the dairy industry.
Passage 3“The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; tobe conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato.Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to hisimpulses(冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral(道德) freedom.A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found inhimself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order tocontrol himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut sothat you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in greatanger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroythey first make them mad.” “Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is notargument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness(狂怒) makeserror a fault.”To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strongyourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “brings with folly and ends with regret.”You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings heconquers, not by the power of those which conquer him. Self-control is man’slast and greatest victory. If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without ithe can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have noself-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. Ifhe lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lackingalso. 59. What’s the main idea of the passage? _______.
A. The importance of self- control.
B. How to conquer oneself?
C. The relation between a man’s moralfreedom and his feelings.
D. A man should keep cool.
60. What’s the meaning of “whoever the godswould destroy they first make them mad”? _______.

C. If you can’t control yourself, you willbe crazy.
D. If the gods want to kill you, they willmake you mad first.
61. Which of the following is NOT true, according topassage? _______.
A. The first and best of victories is for aman to conquer himself.
B. You will make a small mistake serious ifyou don’t keep cool.
C. You must measure a man’s strength by thepower of the feelings which conquer him.
D. Anger brings with folly and ends withregret.

Passage 4I grew up in a small town. My father raised chickens and ran aconstruction company.

One night, a woman executive(董事) from a company named Warner Brothers Records came to hear me sing.When the show was over, we sat down and talked and after she left, I said tomyself it was one more rejection.
