Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are

23、four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice. Passage One Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. In such a changing, complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs become complicated. Many of life's problems which were solved by as

24、king family members, friends or colleagues are beyond the capability of the extended family to resolve. Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are questions facing many people today. In addition to this, there is the growing mobility of people since W

25、orld War . As families move away from their stable community, their friends of many years, their extended family relationships, the informal flow of information is cut off, and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable. The almost unco

26、nscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off. Thus, things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciously learned. Adding to societal changes today is an enormous stockpile of information. The individual now

27、 has more information available than any other generation, and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated, time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming. Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies

28、 which enable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible before. Computer technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files, and to program computers to locate specific information. Telecommunicatio

29、ns developments enable the sending of messages via television, radio, and very shortly, electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages. Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence. Expertise can be shared worldwide through telecon

30、ferencing, and problems in dispute can be settled without the participants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site. Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.

31、 In this world of change and complexity, the need for information is of greatest importance. Those people who have accurate, reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems, the critical problems of their business, social and family life, will survive and succeed. "Knowledge is

32、 power" may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people. 31. The word "it" (Para. 2) most probably refers to _. A) the lack of stable communities B) the breakdown of informal information channels C) the increased mobility of f

34、taining the needed information readily D) they can hardly carry out casual communications with an extended family 正確答案： C 33. From the passage we can infer that _. A) electronic mail will soon play a dominant role in transmitting messages B) it will become more difficult for people to keep secrets i

35、n an information era C) people will spend less time holding meetings or conferences D) events will be reported on the spot mainly through satellites 正確答案： A 34. Technology facilitates _.

37、ntly 正確答案： D Passage Two Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. The first way we can approach language is as a phenomenon of the individual person. It is concerned with describing and explaining language as a matter of human behavior. People speak and write; they also evidently read

38、and understand what they hear. They are not born doing so; they have to acquire these skills. Not everybody seems to develop them to the same degree. People may suffer accidents or diseases, which impair their performance. Language is thus seen as part of human psychology, a particular sort of behav

39、ior, the behavior, which has as its principal, function that of communication. The trouble with the term “behavior” is that it is often taken to refer only to more or less overt, and describable, physical movements and acts. Yet part of language behavior ? that of understanding spoken or written lan

40、guage, for example ? has little or no physically observable signs. It is true we can sometimes infer that understanding has taken place by the changes that take place in the other persons behavior. When someone has been prohibited from doing something, we may infer that he has understood the prohibi

41、tion by observing that thereafter he never behaves in that way. We cannot, of course, be absolutely sure that his subsequent behavior is a result of his understanding; it might be due to a loss of interest or inclination. So behavior must be taken to include unobservable activity, often only to be i

42、nferred from other observable behavior. Once we admit that the study of language behavior involves describing and explaining the unobservable, the situation becomes much more complicated, because we have to postulate some set of processes, some internal mechanism, which operates when we speak and un

43、derstand. We have to postulate something we can call a mind. The study of language from this point of view can then be seen as a study of the specific properties, processes and states of the mind whose outward manifestations are observable behavior; what we have to know in order to perform linguisti

44、cally. This approach to language, as a phenomenon of the individual, is thus principally concerned with explaining how we acquire language, and its relation to general human cognitive systems, and with the psychological mechanisms underlying the comprehension and production of speech; much less with

45、 the problem of what language is for, that is, its function as communication, since this necessarily involves more than a single individual. 36. What is the best title for this passage? A) Language as Means of Communication. B) Language and Psychology. C) Language and the Individual. D) Language as

46、a Social Phenomenon. 正確答案： C 37. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? A) Language is often regarded as part of human psychology. B) People develop language skills of different degrees as a result of different personal experiences. C) Language is a special kind of

47、psychological behavior that is born with an individual. D) People learn to speak and write through imitation and training. 正確答案： C 38. What does the term “behavior” in the second paragraph especially refer to in this passage? A) It refers to observable and physical movements and acts. B) It refers t

48、o the part of language behavior that involves understanding or interpretation. C) It refers to both the overt and the unobservable language behaviors in communicating. D) It refers to acts of speaking and writing. 正確答案： C 39. What does “internal mechanism” ( Para. 3) mean? A) Secret machine. B) Ment

49、al processes. C) Overt system. D) Mechanic operation. 正確答案： B 40. What can you infer from the passage? A) Its individualistic approach to language is meant to study the psychological processes of language acquisition. B) The individualistic approach to language is mainly concerned with how language

50、functions in society. C) The study of language is sure to involve more than a single individual. D) Psychological approach to language is concerned with the comprehension and production of speech. 正確答案： A Part III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes ) Directions: There are a number of incomplete s
