d?0 Real policemen, both Britain and the United States hardly recognize anyresemblance between their lives and what they see on TV—if they ever get home intime. There are similarities, of course, but the cops don't think much of them. U/ZbE
?it> The first difference is that a policeman'sreal life revolves round the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. Hehas to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used toprove them in court. He has to know nearly as much law as a professionallawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it on his feet, in the dark and rain,running down an alley after someone he has to talk to. [W2p }4( Little of his time is spent in chatting toscantily clad ladies or in dramatic confrontations with desperate criminal. Hewill spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands offorms about hundreds of sad, unimportantpeople who are guilty—or not—of stupid, petty crimes. X=JSqO6V9 Most television crime drama is aboutfinding the criminal; as soon as he's arrested, the story is over. In reallife, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very seriouscases like murders and terrorist attacks—where failure to produce resultsreflects on the standing of the police—little effort is spent on searching. Thepolice have an elaborate machinery which eventually shows up most wanted men. XJlun l)(K Having made an arrest, a detective reallystarts to work. He has to prove his case in court and to do that he often hasto gather a lot of different evidence. Much of this has to be given by peoplewho don't want to get involved in a court case. So as well as being overworked,a detective has to be out at all hours of the day and night interviewing hiswitnesses and persuading them, usually against their own best interests, tohelp him. Wb|IWnH$ A third big difference between the dramadetective and the real one is the unpleasant moral twilight in which the realone lives. Detectives are subject to two opposing pressures: first as membersof a police force they always have to behave with absolute legality, secondly,as expensive public servants they have to get results. They can hardly ever doboth. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways. Mz06cw& If the detective has to deceive the world,the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. Andthis separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the worldis deepened by the simple mindedness—as he sees it—of citizens, social workers,doctors, law makers, and judges, who, instead of stamping out crime punish thecriminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. Theresult, detectives feel, is that nine tenths of their work is reaching peoplewho should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical. `)%eU~ +<iw|vr 1.It is essential for a policeman to be trained incriminal law ______. p5bH-km6 A. so that he can catch criminals in thestreets )sL:iGU B. because many of the criminals he has tocatch are dangerous _Y0o\0B C. so that he can justify his arrests incourt We9mkwK7C D. because he has to know nearly as much about law asa professional lawyer c)lK{DC 2.The everyday life of a policeman or detective is______. ,:#prT[P" A. exciting and glamorous e8[*=& B. full of danger rdC(+2+Ay C. devoted mostly to routine matters 3QF!fll^ D. wasted on unimportant matters qH-dT,`"{ 3.When murders and terrorist attacks occur the police______. 0zEn`rq& A. prefer to wait for the criminal to givehimself away MTF:mLJ B. spend a lot of effort on trying to trackdown their man J>+Dv?Ni$ C. try to make a quick arrest in order tokeep up their reputation h)YqC$A-s D. usually fail to produce results }FFW,x 4.The realdetective lives in “an unpleasant moral twilight” because ______.

VF 8Mp 例子Passage 1 zZDr=6|r_ A history of long and effortless successcan be a dreadful handicap, but, if properly handled, it may become a drivingforce. When the United States entered just such a glowing periodafter the end of the Second World War, it had a market eight times larger thanany competitor, giving its industries unparalleled economies of scale. Itsscientists were the world's best, its workers the most skilled. America andAmericans were prosperous beyond the dreams of the Europeans and Asians whoseeconomies the war had destroyed. is`a_{5e= It was inevitable that this primacy shouldhave narrowed as other countries grew richer. Just as inevitably, the retreatfrom predominance proved painful. By the mid1980s Americans had foundthemselves at a loss over their fading industrial competitiveness. Some hugeAmerican industries, such as consumer electronics, had shrunk or vanished inthe face of foreign competition. By 1987 there was only one American televisionmaker left, Zenith.(Now there is none: Zenith was bought by South Korea'sLG Electronics in July.)Foreign made cars and textiles were sweeping into thedomestic market. America'smachine tool industry was on the ropes. For a while it looked as though themaking of semiconductors, which Americahad invented and which sat at the heart of the new computer age, was going tobe the next casualty. |D^[]*cEH All of this caused a crisis of confidence.Americans stopped taking prosperity for granted. They began to believe thattheir way of doing business was failing, and that their incomes would thereforeshortly begin to fall as well. The mid1980s brought one inquiry after anotherinto the causes of America'sindustrial decline. Their sometimes sensational findings were filled withwarnings about the growing competition from overseas. )kd PAw How things have changed! In 1995 the United States can look back on five years ofsolid growth while Japanhas been struggling. Few Americans attribute this solely to such obvious causesas a devalued dollar or the turning of the business cycle. Self doubt hasyielded to blind pride.“American industry has changed itsstructure, has gone on a diet, has learnt to be more quickwitted,” according toRichard Cavanagh, executive dean of Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.“It makes me proud to be an American just to see howour businesses are improving their productivity,” says Stephen Moore of theCato Institute, a think-tank in Washington, DC. And William Sahlman of the Harvard BusinessSchool believes that people will lookback on this period as “a golden age of business management in the United States.” &QE* V Xe%n.DW m 1.The U.

But since people don't alwayssay what they think, marketers would need direct access to consumers' thoughtsto get the truth. ~ia#=|1} Now, in a way, that is possible. At the“Mind of the Market” laboratory at Harvard Business School,researchers are looking inside shoppers' skulls to develop more effectiveadvertisements and marketing pitches. Using imaging techniques that measureblood flow to various parts of the brain, the Harvard team hopes to predict howconsumers will react to particular products and to discover the most effectiveways to present information. Stephen Kosslyn, a professor of psychology atHarvard, and business school professor Gerald Zaltman, oversee the lab.“The goal is not to manipulate peoples' preferences,”says Kosslyn, “just to speak to their actual desires.” The group's findings,though still preliminary, could radically change how firms develop and marketnew products. 1rT}mm/e; The Harvard group use position emissiontopography (PET) scans to monitor the brain activity. These PET scans, alongwith other non-invasive imaging techniques; enable researchers to see whichparts of the brain are active during specific tasks (such as remembering a worD..Correlations have been found between blood flow tospecifc areas and future behavior. Because of this, Harvard researchers believethe scans can also predict future purchasing patterns. According to anunpublished paper the group produced, “It is possible to use these techniquesto predict not only whether people will remember and have specific emotionalreactions to certain materials, but also whether they will be inclined to wantthose materials months later.” q<.^DO~$L The Harvard group is now moving into thenext stage of experiments. They will explore how people remember advertisementsas part of an effort to predict how they will react to a product after havingseen an ad. The researchers believe that once key areas of the brain are identified,scans on about two dozen volunteers will be enough to draw conclusions aboutthe reactions of specific segments of the population. Largecorporations-including Coca Cola, Eastman Kodak, General Motors, andHallmark-have already signed up to fund further investigations. 3fn6W)v? For their financial support, these firmsgain access to the experiments but cannot control them. If Kosslyn and Zaltmanand their team really can read the mind of the market, then consumers may findit even harder to get those advertising jingles out of their heads. % e:VeP~ i%v^Zg&FU 1.Which ofthe following statements can be the best title for this passage? y}nM'$p A.

A few have alreadyappeared. The goal of all will be to try to explain to a confused and oftenunenlightened citizenry that there are not two equally valid scientifictheories for the origin and evolution of universe and life. Cosmology, geology,and biology have provided a consistent, unified, and constantly improvingaccount of what happened.“Scientific” creationism, which is beingpushed by some for “equal time” in the classrooms whenever the scientificaccounts of evolution are given, is based on religion, not science. Virtuallyall scientists and the majority of nonfundamentalist religious leaders havecome to regard “scientific” creationism as bad science and bad religion. IgR_p7['. The first four chapters of Kitcher's book givea very brief introduction to evolution. At appropriate places, he introducesthe criticisms of the creationists and provides answers. In the last threechapters, he takes off his gloves and gives the creationists a good beating. Hedescribes their programmes and tactics, and, for those unfamiliar with the waysof creationists, the extent of their deception and distortion may come as anunpleasant surprise. When their basic motivation is religious, one might haveexpected more Christian behavior. x{5I Kitcher is a philosopher, and this mayaccount, in part, for the clarity and effectiveness of his arguments. Thenonspecialist will be able to obtain at least a notion of the sorts of data andargument that support evolutionary theory. The final chapter on thecreationists will be extremely clear to all. On the dust jacket of this finebook, Stephen Jay Gould says: “This book stands for reason itself.” And so itdoes and all would be well were reason the only judge in thecreationism/evolution debate. _H<ur?G 1.“Creationism” in the passage refers to ______. 3,S5>~R= (A) evolution in its true sense as to theorigin of the universe HaJD2wvr (B) a notion of the creation of religion +twJHf_U (C) the scientific explanation of the earthformation /N{x Ft/?

E \b{=&B[Q$' Passage 2 li$(oA2 Being a man has always been dangerous.There are about 105 males born for every 100 females, but this ratio drops tonear balance at the age of maturity, and among 70yearolds there are twice asmany women as men. But the great universal of male mortality is being changed.Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that, for thefirst time, there will be an excess of boys in those crucial years when theyare searching for a mate. More important, another chance for natural selectionhas been removed. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby (particularly a boybaby) surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meantalmost certain death. Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of thevariation is due to genes, one more agent of evolution has gone. bUU_NqUf*3 There is another way to commit evolutionarysuicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. Few people are as fertile as inthe past. Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15children. Nowadays the number of births, like the age of death, has becomeaverage. Most of us have roughly the same number of offspring. Again,differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to takeadvantage of it have diminished. India shows what is happening. Thecountry offers wealth for a few in the great cities and poverty for theremaining tribal peoples. The grand mediocrity of today—everyone being the samein survival and number of offspring—means that natural selection has lost 80%of its power in upper-middle class India compared to the tribes. p@YU7_sF^! For us, this means that evolution is over; thebiological Utopia has arrived. Strangely, it has involved little physicalchange. No other species fills so many places in nature. But in the past100,000 years—even the past 100 years—our lives have been transformed but ourbodies have not. We did not evolve, because machines and society did it for us.Darwin had aphrase to describe those ignorant of evolution: they “look at an organic beingas a savage looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond his comprehension.”No doubt we will remember a 20th century way of life beyond comprehension forits ugliness. But however amazed our descendants may be at how far from Utopiawe were, they will look just like us. =uMoX
