Part III Reading Comprehension (45 minutes, 30 points)
Directions: There are 6 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You must decide one the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Passage One
    Americans today don’t place a very high value on intellect. Our heroes are athletes, entertainers, and entrepreneurs, not scholars. Even our schools are where we send our children to get a practical education —— not to pursue knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Symptoms of pervasive anti-intellectualism in our schools aren’t difficult to find. “Schools have always been in a society where practical is more important than intellectual,” says education writer Diane Ravitch.
   “Schools could be a counterbalance.” Ravitch’s latest book, Left Back: A Century of Failed School Reforms, traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools, concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits.
   But they could and should be. Encouraging kids to reject the life of the mind leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and control. Without the ability to think critically, to defend their ideas and understand the ideas of others, they cannot fully participate in our democracy. Continuing along this path, says writer Earl Shorris, “We will become a second-rate country. We will have a less civil society.”
   “Intellect is resented as a form of power or privilege,” writes historian and professor Richard Hofstadter in Anti-Intellectualism in American life, a Pulitzer Prize winning book on the roots of anti-intellectualism in US politics, religion, and education. From the beginning of our history, says Hofstadter, our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism. Practicality, common sense, and native intelligence have been considered more noble qualities than anything you could learn from a book.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson and other Transcendentalist philosophers thought schooling and rigorous book learning put unnatural restraints on children: “We are shut up in schools and college recitation rooms for 10 or 15 years and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing.” Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn exemplified American anti-intellectualism. Its hero avoids being civilized — going to school and learning to read — so he can preserve his innate goodness.
   Intellect, according to Hofstadter, is different from native intelligence, a quality we reluctantly admire. Intellect is the critical, creative, and contemplative side of the mind. Intelligence seeks to grasp, manipulate, re-order, and adjust, while intellect examines, ponders, wonders, theorizes, criticizes and imagines.
    School remains a place where intellect is mistrusted. Hofstadter says our country’s educational system is in the grips of people who “joyfully and militantly proclaim their hostility to intellect and their eagerness to identify with children who show the least intellectual promise.”
41. What do American parents expect their children to acquire in school?
   A. The habit of thinking independently.
   B. Profound knowledge of the world.
   C. Practical abilities for future career.
   D. The confidence in intellectual pursuits.
42. We can learn from the text that Americans have a history of ________.
   A. undervaluing intellect   B. favoring intellectualism
   C. supporting school reform       D. suppressing native intelligence
43. The views of Ravitch and Emerson on schooling are _________.
   A. identical           B. similar            C. complementary         D. opposite
44. Emerson, according to the text, is probably
   A. a pioneer of education reform.              B. an opponent of intellectualism.
   C. a scholar in favor of intellect.             D. an advocate of regular schooling.
45. What does the author think of intellect?
   A. It is second to intelligence.           B. It evolves from common sense.
   C. It is to be pursued.           D. It underlies power.

Passage Two
   Some houses are designed to be smart. Others have smart designs. An example of the second type of house won an Award of Excellence from the American Institute of Architects.
  　Located on the shore of Sullivan's Island off the coast of South Carolina, the award-winning cube-shaped beach house was built to replace one smashed to pieces by Hurricane Hugo 10 years ago. In September 1989, Hugo struck South Carolina, killing 18 people and damaging or destroying 36,000 homes in the state.
Before Hugo, many new houses built along South Carolina's shoreline were poorly constructed, and enforcement of building codes wasn't strict, according to architect Ray Huff, who created the cleverly-designed beach house. In Hugo's wake, all new shoreline houses are required to meet stricter, better-enforced codes. The new beach house on Sullivan's Island should be able to withstand a Category 3 hurricane with peak winds of 179 to 209 kilometers per hour.
　At first sight, the house on Sullivan's Island looks anything but hurricane-proof. Its redwood shell makes it resemble "a large party lantern" at night, according to one observer. But looks can be deceiving. The house's wooden frame is reinforced with long steel rods to give it extra strength.
   To further protect the house from hurricane damage, Huff raised it 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings -- long, slender columns of wood anchored deep in the sand. Pilings might appear insecure, but they are strong enough to support the weight of the house. They also elevate the house above storm surges. The pilings allow the surges to run under the house instead of running into it. "These swells of water come ashore at tremendous speeds and cause most of the damage done to beach-front buildings," said Huff.
    Huff designed the timber pilings to be partially concealed by the house's ground-to-roof shell. "The shell masks the pilings so that the house doesn't look like it's standing with its pant legs pulled up," said Huff. In the event of a storm surge, the shell should break apart and let the waves rush under the house, the architect explained.
46. After the tragedy caused by Hurricane Hugo, new houses built along South Carolina's shore line are required________.
   A. to be easily reinforced         B. to look smarter in design
   C. to meet stricter building standards            D. to be designed in the shape of cubes
47. The award-winning beach house is quite strong because________.
   A. it is strengthened by steel rods        B. it is made of redwood
   C. it is in the shape of a shell   D. it is built with timber and concrete
48. Huff raised the house 2.7 meters off the ground on timber pilings in order to ________.
   A. withstand peak winds of about 200 km/hr
   B. anchor stronger pilings deep in the sand
　 C. break huge sea waves into smaller ones
　D. prevent water from rushing into the house
49. The main function of the shell is __________.
  A. to strengthen the pilings of the house
  B. to give the house a better appearance
  C. to protect the wooden frame of the house
  D. to slow down the speed of the swelling water
50. It can be inferred from the passage that the shell should be_________.
  A. fancy-looking       B. waterproof        C. easily breakable     D. extremely strong

Passage Three
Early in the age of affluence that followed World War II, an American retailing analyst named Victor Lebow proclaimed, “Our enormously productive economy ... demands that we make consumption our way of life, that we convert the buying and use of goods into rituals, that we seek our spiritual satisfaction, our ego satisfaction, in consumption. ... We need things consumed, burned up, worn out, replaced and discarded at an ever increasing rate.”
Americans have responded to Lebow’s call, and much of the world has followed.   Consumption has become a central pillar of life in industrial lands and is even embedded in social values. Opinion surveys in the world’s two largest economies—Japan and the United States -- show consumerist definitions of success becoming ever more prevalent.
       Overconsumption by the world’s fortunate is an environmental problem unmatched in severity by anything but perhaps population growth. Their surging exploitation of resources threatens to exhaust or unalterably spoil forests, soils, water, air and climate.
       Ironically, high consumption may be a mixed blessing in human terms, too. The time-honored values of integrity of character, good work, friendship, family and community have often been sacrificed in the rush to riches.
       Thus many in the industrial lands have a sense that their world of plenty is somehow hollow—that, misled by a consumerist culture, they have been fruitlessly attempting to satisfy what are essentially social, psychological and spiritual needs with material things.
       Of course, the opposite of overconsumption — poverty— is no solution to either environmental or human problems. It is infinitely worse for people and bad for the natural world too. Dispossessed peasants slash-and-burn their way into the rain forests of Latin America, and hungry nomads turn their herds out onto fragile African grassland, reducing it to desert.
       If environmental destruction results when people have either too little or too much, we are left to wonder how much is enough. What level of consumption can the earth support? When does having more cease to add noticeably to human satisfaction?
51.   The emergence of the affluent society after World War II ________.
       A. gave birth to a new generation of upper class consumers
       B. gave rise to the dominance of the new egoism
       C. led to the reform of the retailing system
       D. resulted in the worship of consumerism
52.   Apart from enormous productivity, another important impetus to high consumption is _______.
       A. the conversion of the sale of goods into rituals
       B. the people’s desire for a rise in their living standards
       C. the imbalance that has existed between production and consumption
       D. the concept that one’s success is measured by how much they consume
53.   Why does the author say high consumption is a mixed blessing?
       A. Because poverty still exists in an affluent society.
       B. Because moral values are sacrificed in pursuit of material satisfaction.
       C. Because overconsumption won’t last long due to unrestricted population growth.
       D. Because traditional rituals are often neglected in the process of modernization.
54.   According to the passage, consumerist culture ________.
       A. cannot thrive on a fragile economy
       B. will not aggravate environmental problems
       C. cannot satisfy human spiritual needs
       D. will not alleviate poverty in wealthy countries
55.   It can be inferred from the passage that _______.
       A. human spiritual needs should match material affluence
       B. there is never an end to satisfying people’s material needs
       C. whether high consumption should be encouraged is still an issue
       D. how to keep consumption at a reasonable level remains a problem

Passage Four
    When families gather for Christmas dinner, some will stick to formal traditions dating back to Grandma's generation. Their tables will be set with the good dishes and silver, and the dress code will be Sunday-best. freekaob o.com
But in many other homes, this china-and-silver elegance has given way to a stoneware-and-stainless informality, with dresses assuming an equally casual-Friday look. For hosts and guests, the change means greater simplicity and comfort. For makers of fine china in Britain, it spells economic hard times.
    Last week Royal Doulton, the largest employer in Stoke-on-Trent, announced that it is eliminating 1,000 jobs -- one-fifth of its total workforce. That brings to more than 4,000 the number of positions lost in 18 months in the pottery region. Wedgwood and other pottery factories made cuts earlier.
   Although a strong pound and weak markets in Asia play a role in the downsizing, the layoffs in Stoke have their roots in earthshaking social shifts. A spokesman for Royal Doulton admitted that the company "has been somewhat slow in catching up with the trend" toward casual dining. Families eat together less often, he explained, and more people eat alone, either because they are single or they eat in front of television; even dinner parties, if they happen at all, have gone casual. In a time of long work hours and demanding family schedules, busy hosts insist, rightly, that it's better to share a takeout pizza on paper plates in the family room than to wait for the perfect moment or a "real" dinner party. Too often, the perfect moment never comes. Iron a fine-patterned tablecloth? Forget it. Polish the silver? Who has time?
　 Yet the loss of formality has its down side. The fine points of etiquette that children might once have learned at the table by observation or instruction from parents and grandparents ("Chew with your mouth closed." "Keep your elbows off the table.") must be picked up elsewhere. Some companies now offer etiquette seminars for employees who may be competent professionally but clueless socially.
56. The trend toward casual dining has resulted in_____.
A. bankruptcy of fine china manufacturers         B. shrinking of the pottery industry
    C. restructuring of large enterprises         D. economic recession in Great Britain
57. Which of the following may be the best reason for casual dining?
   A. Family members need more time to relax.
   B. Busy schedules leave people no time for formality.
   C. People want to practice economy in times of scarcity.
   D. Young people won't follow the etiquette of the older generation.
58. It can be learned from the passage that Royal Doulton is_____.
   A. a retailer of stainless steel tableware         B. a dealer in stoneware
   C. a pottery chain store           D. a producer of fine china
59. The main cause of the layoffs in the pottery industry is_____.
   A. the increased value of the pound    B. the economic recession in Asia
   C. the change in people's way of life   D. the fierce competition at home and abroad
60. Refined table manners, though less popular than before in current social life_____.
   A. are still a must on certain occasions         B. are bound to return sooner or later
   C. are still being taught by parents at home    D. can help improve personal relationships

Passage Five
    Richard Satava, program manager for advanced medical technologies, has been a driving force in bringing virtual reality to medicine, where computers create a "virtual" or simulated environment for surgeons and other medical practitioners.
"With virtual reality we'll be able to put a surgeon in every trench," said Satava. He envisaged a time when soldiers who are wounded fighting overseas are put in mobile surgical units equipped with computers.
The computers would transmit images of the soldiers to surgeons back in the U.S. The surgeons would look at the soldier through virtual reality helmets that contain a small screen displaying the image of the wound. The doctors would guide robotic instruments in the battlefield mobile surgical unit that operate on the soldier.
Although Satava's vision may be years away from standard operating procedure, scientists are progressing toward virtual reality surgery. Engineers at an international organization in California are developing a tele-operating device. As surgeons watch a three-dimensional image of the surgery, they move instruments that are connected to a computer, which passes their movements to robotic instruments that perform the surgery. The computer provides, feedback to the surgeon on force, textures, and sound.
These technological wonders may not yet be part of the community hospital setting but increasingly some of the machinery is finding its way into civilian medicine. At Wayne State University Medical School, surgeon Lucia Zamorano takes images of the brain from computerized scans and uses a computer program to produce a 3-D image. She can then maneuver the 3-D image on the computer screen to map the shortest, least invasive surgical path to the rumor. Zamorano is also using technology that attaches a probe to surgical instruments so that she can track their positions. While cutting away a tumor deep in the brain, she watches the movement of her surgical tools in a computer graphics image of the patient's brain taken before surgery.
During these procedures -- operations that are done through small cuts in the body in which a miniature camera and surgical tools are maneuvered -- surgeons are wearing 3-D glasses for a better view. And they are commanding robot surgeons to cut away tissue more accurately than human surgeons can. Satava says, "We are in the midst of a fundamental change in the field of medicine."

61. According to Richard Satava, the application of virtual reality to medicine _______.
  A. will enable surgeons to be physically present on every battlefield
  B. can raise the spirits of soldiers wounded on the battlefield
  C. will greatly improve medical conditions on the battlefield
  D. can shorten the time for operations on soldiers wounded on the battlefield

62. Richard Satava has visions of_______

  A. using a remote-control technique to treat wounded soldiers fighting overseas

  B. wounded soldiers being saved by doctors wearing virtual reality helmets on the battlefield

  C. wounded soldiers being operated on by specially trained surgeons

  D. setting up mobile surgical units overseas
  63. How is virtual reality surgery performed?
  A. It is performed by a computer-designed high precision device.
  B. Surgeons wear virtual reality helmets to receive feedback provided by a computer.

  C. Surgeons move robotic instruments by means of a computer linked to them.
  D. A 3-D image records the movements of the surgeons during the operation.
  64. During virtual reality operations, the surgeon can have a better view of the cuts in the body   because _____. 网络督察
  A. he is looking at the cuts on a computer screen
  B. the cuts can be examined from different angles
  C. the cuts have been highly magnified
  D. he is wearing 3-D glasses
65. Virtual reality operations are an improvement on conventional surgery in that they _______.
  A. cause less pain to the wounded
  B. allow the patient to recover more quickly
  C. will make human surgeons' work less tedious
  D. are done by robot surgeons with greater precision

Passage Six
    For most thinkers since the Greek philosophers, it was self-evident that there is something called human nature, something that constitutes the essence of man. There were various views about what constitutes it, but there was agreement that such an essence exists -- that is to say, that there is something by virtue of which man is man. Thus man was defined as a rational being, as a social animal, an animal that can make tools, or a symbol-making animal.
    More recently, this traditional view has begun to be questioned. One reason for this change was the increasing emphasis given to the historical approach to man. An examination of the history of humanity suggested that man in our epoch is so different from man in previous times that it seemed unrealistic to assume that men in every age have had in common something that can be called "human nature." The historical approach was reinforced, particularly in the United States, by studies in the field of cultural anthropology. The study of primitive peoples has discovered such a diversity of customs, values, feelings, and thoughts that many anthropologists arrived at the concept that man is born as a blank sheet of paper on which each culture writes its text.
Another factor contributing to the tendency to deny the assumption of a fixed human nature was that the concept has so often been abused as a shield behind which the most inhuman acts are committed. In the name of human nature, for example, Aristotle and most thinkers up to the eighteenth century defended slavery. Or in order to prove the rationality and necessity of the capitalist form of society, scholars have tried to make a case for acquisitiveness, competitiveness, and selfishness as innate human traits. Popularly, one refers cynically to "human nature" in accepting the inevitability of such undesirable human behavior as greed, murder, cheating and lying.
Another reason for skepticism about the concept of human nature probably lies in the influence of evolutionary thinking. Once man came to be seen as developing in the process of evolution, the idea of a substance which is contained in his essence seemed untenable.

In the 52-year history of the United Nations, the General Assembly has held only 19 special sessions.  71  to some of the leading issues of our times, such as the environment, the struggle against apartheid （南非种族隔离）and the economic situation in Africa, those meetings were held at critical junctures,  72  when international attention of the highest  73  was needed.
One  74  special session, in 1990,  75  the question of international drug control. The sad reality today,  76 , is that the problem of illegal drugs remains  77  us, and the trends are not slowing.

So, it is  80  that the international community mount a  81 , sustained and global response.

There is nothing “cool”, nor “artistic”,  90  “charming”, but rather “degenerating”.
