Directions: There are 4 reading 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 should decide on the BEST choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with your pencil.
Passage One
The American Revolution was not a revolution in the sense of a radical or total change. It was not a sudden and violent overturning of the political and social framework, such as later occurred in France and Russia, when both were already independent nations. Significant changes were ushered in, but they were not breathtaking. What happened was accelerated evolution rather than outright revolution. During the conflict itself people went on working and praying, marrying and playing. Most of them were not seriously disturbed by the actual fighting, and many of the more isolated communities scarcely knew that a war was on.
America’s War of independence heralded the birth of three modern nations. One was Canada, which received its first large influx (涌入) of English-speaking population from the thousands of loyalists who fled there from the United States. Another was Australia, which became a penal colony now that America was no longer available for prisoners and debtors. The third
newcomer----the United States-based itself squarely on republican principles. Yet even the political overturn was not so revolutionary as one might suppose. In some states, notable Connecticut and Rhode Island, the war largely ratified (批准，认可) a colonial self-rule already existing. British officials, everywhere ousted (驱逐), were replaced by a homegrown governing class, which promptly sought a local substitute for king and Parliament. Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: 31．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A) The United States: An isolated Community
B) Breathtaking Events during the American Revolution C) Canada and the American war of Independence
D) The American Revolution: Evolution Not Revolution
32. In the first paragraph, what does the author suggest about the French and Russian
Revolutions?
装A) They were explosive and abrupt.
B) They were ineffective.
订C) They involved only those people living in urban areas.
D) They led to the release of all political prisoners. 线33. In line 7 what does the author mean by “people went on working and praying, marrying and
playing”? 内A) More people got married than divorced. 不B) The war created new jobs.
C) Life went on as usual.
要D) People had more than enough leisure time.
34. In the second paragraph, the author states that the colonies struggle for self-government 答preceded the creation of all of the following countries EXCEPT_____.
A) Canada B) the United States C) Australia D) the United Kingdom 题35. It can be inferred from the passage that the loyalists who escaped to Canada were _____. A) Russian B) French C) British D) Australian
Passage Two
Some of the most beautiful caves are formed in glaciers (冰川). Streams of melting ice and snow tunnel through the glaciers the same way that water from a faucet melts its way through an ice cube. Water from the surface drips down through cracks, hollowing out the tunnels and decorating the caves with crystal icicles. The smooth walls and floors are so glasslike that pebbles frozen six feet deep can easily be seen. Crystal-clear icicles draping from the ceilings flash blue-green, as though they were carved from precious jewels instead of ice. Although most of the cave ice in the United States is found in lava caves, there are a number of limestone ice caves as well. Some people believe that this ice was formed thousands of years ago, when temperatures were much colder than they are today. Others think that the cave ice broke off from the ancient glaciers as they spread over the country. Today many cave scientists have another idea. They believe that cold water sinks down through cracks into these caves until the temperature is chilly enough to freeze the water that seeps (渗入) in. The ice that forms keep the cave cool, and that helps build up still more ice. Many caves become covered with so much ice that no one knows just how thick it is. In some, such as Crystal Falls Cave in Idaho, there are frozen rivers and even
frozen waterfalls. Native Americans and early settlers used to store food in these underground refrigerators and chip out blocks of ice to melt for drinking water. Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: 36．What does the passage mainly discuss?
A) Characteristics of glaciers. B) Uses for ice caves. C) The origin of cave ice.]
D) Where glaciers can be found.
37. According to many of today’s cave scientists, what causes ice to build up in caves?
A) Rivers and waterfalls supply water. B) Icicles accumulate on the ceilings. C) Cave ice breaks off glaciers. D) Cold water seeps in and freezes.
38. It can be inferred from the passage that the early settlers in the Unites States appreciated the
ice caves for their ______.
A) practicality B) beautiful interiors C) historical value D) precious gems
39. The author compares icicles to precious jewels based on which of the following?
A) Appearance. B) Cost.
C) Method of formation. D) Availability. 40. Where is most of the cave ice in the United States found?
A) In lava caves. B) In ancient glaciers. C) On cave ceilings. D) In cave cracks.
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passages:
With the Switzerland-based World Wildlife Fund(WWF), China is making a concerned and dedicated effort to save the endangered pandas. The results, officials here in Chengdu indicate, are mixed but encouraging.
A clear disappointment is the failure to breed pandas in captivity, necessary if their decreasing numbers are to be replaced. Another failure has been the incapability to find a natural, readily available food to replace the arrow bamboo.
Despite these failures, success has come on two fronts. One achievement has been the physical rescue effort. Some pandas have been kept alive by salting the mountains with tons of cooked meat, which pandas will eat as a substitute for bamboo, and by the planting of new bamboo in isolated areas. Animals in some Sichuan areas have been rescued by local peasants and given emergency treatment by animal doctors.
A second achievement is a massive fund-raising effort. Publicity about the pandas’ plight has resulted in a new $100,000 emergency allocation by the WWF and independent fund dries both in China and abroad.
In spite of this support, there have been conflicts in the panda relief program. One important problem is the difficulty Peking is having balancing the recommendations of environmentalists with China’s ambitious goal of agricultural and industrial modernization.
Wolong is but one example of this difficulty. This 494,000-acre preserve was declared a
protected area in 1975. Yet 1,800 people, mostly Tibetans, still live in the preserve, logging trunks still roll down the narrow mountain roads, and blasting work still goes on at the site of a new 160,000-kilowatt hydroelectric plant just six miles away.
This all means that the panda’s fight for survival will not be an easy one, even with the concerted effort of man. For in the end, even if they can survive the dangers of the wild, they must still contend with man.
41. Efforts to save the endangered pandas _________.
A) have met with setbacks but brought hope B) have proven highly successful C) have failed completely
D) have received no response from the scientists
42. Which of the following threatens pandas’ survival in the Wolong preserve?
A) Local population.
B) Economic development. C) Unfavorable environment. D) All of the above.
43. All of the following help prevent the decline of the panda population EXCEPT__________.
A) the large-scale fund-raising drives
B) the reproduction of panda offspring during captivity C) the rescue of the injured and the sick D) the cultivation of new bamboo forests 44. It can be inferred from the passage that _____.
A) Switzerland is the only country that contributes in the panda relief program B) it is too late to rescue the endangered pandas C) the survival of pandas is an international concern D) the lovely pandas will soon die out
45. The tone of the author’s conclusion concerning pandas’ survival is _______. A) worried B) optimistic C) angry D) impersonal
Passage Four
We use emotive language to express our own attitudes and feelings. We also direct emotive language at other people to persuade them to believe as we do or to do, as we want them to do; and, of course, other people direct emotive language at us to get us to believe or to do what they want.
We are subjected to a constant stream of persuasion, day in, and day out, at home and in school, on the radio and on television. It comes from parents and teachers, from preachers and politicians, form editors and commentators, but most of all, of course, from advertisers. Most of this persuasion is expressed in emotive language and is intended to appeal to our feelings rather than to be weighted up by our powers of reasoning.
We should look at the motives behind all this persuasion. Why do they want to persuade us? What do they want us to do? We are not thinking very clearly unless we try to see through the veil of words and realize something of the speakers’ purpose.
An appeal to motion is in itself neither good nor bad. Our emotions exist and they are part of our personality. On some occasions people appeal to our emotions on the highest levels and from
the best of motives. A case in point is Churchill’s wartime speeches: whatever people thought of Churchill as a politician, they were united behind him when he spoke as a national leader in those dark days their feelings responded to his call for resolution and unity.
It is a characteristic of social groups that the members have a feeling of personal attachment to the group--- to the family in earliest childhood and extending later to the school, the team, the church, the nation, in patterns that vary from time to time. Hence a speaker from our group will find in us feelings to which he can readily and genuinely appeal, whether our reaction is favorable or not. We are at least open to the appeal and we appreciate the content in which it is made. Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
46. The passage discusses the emotive language, whose major functions are to ______.
A) show one’s feelings and appeal to these of others B) make others trust us and respond to our feeling
C) extend our powers of reasoning and carry out a purpose D) advertise and produce the wanted social effects
47. The source from which emotive language flows upon us in its greatest amount is _____.
A) the religious circles B) the academic lecture C) the mass media D) the advertising business 48. The third paragraph of this passage suggests that we __________.
A) have to carefully use our emotive language
B) need to judge whether a persuasion is made for good or bad
C) should keep a cool head when subjected to different kinds of persuasions D) should avoid being easily seen through by and appeal form others 49. Churchill is mentioned in the passage as _______.
A) a good example of the way of weighting up persuasion by reasoning B) a famous leader who brought out people’s best feelings C) a positive example of appealing to people’s emotion D) a known politician who was good at lecturing
50. From the passage we can get that a persuasive speaker must ________.
A) find out what group his audience is attached to B) differentiate his speech patterns from time to time
C) be aware of the way of adapting his speaking way to the needs of the audience D) know whether the listeners are favorable to his opinion or not

In the 81 World, the woman saw many people like her father and daughter. All of them were attracted by huge advertisements showing beautiful 82 girls and confident men 83 away. As in American cities and reservations（美国印第安部落的居留地）, money intended for food was spent on tobacco so that 84 time people starve for food and air, weaken and hook their children and 85 kill themselves.
