Part IV Reading Comprehension (40 marks)
Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. Respond to the questions using information from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.
Section A (10 marks)
Questions 56—60 are based on the following passage.
The term culture shock was introduced for
the first time in 1958 to describe the anxiety
produced when a person moves to a completely
new environment. This term expresses the
feeling of not knowing what to do or how to do
things in a new environment. This term
expresses the feeling of not knowing what to do or how to do things in a new environment. We can describe culture shock as the physical and emotional discomfort a person suffers when coming to live in a place different from the place of origin.
Often, the way that we live before is not accepted or considered as normal in the new place. Everything is different, for example, not speaking the language, not knowing how to use banking machines, not knowing how to use telephones, and so forth.
The symptoms of culture shock can appear at different times. Although a person can experience real pain from culture shock, it is also an opportunity for growing and learning new perspectives. Culture shock can help people develop a better understanding of themselves and stimulate personal creativity.
Culture shock has many stages. Each stage can be ongoing, or appear only at certain times. In the first stage, the new arrival may feel very happy about all of the new experience. This time is called the honeymoon stage. Afterward, the second stage presents itself. A person may encounter some difficulties in daily life. For example, communication difficulties may occur, such as not being understood. In this stage, there may be feelings of impatience, anger and sadness. Transition between the old methods and those of the new country is a difficult process and takes time to complete. The third stage is characterized by gaining some understanding of the new culture. A
new feeling of pleasure and sense of humor may be experienced. A person may start to feel a psychological balance. The individual is more familiar with the environment and wants to belong. This starts an evaluation of the old ways versus those of the new. In the fourth stage, the person realizes that the new culture has good and bad things to offer. This stage can be one of double integration or triple integration, depending on the number of cultures that the person has to process. This integration is characterized by a more solid feeling of belonging. The person starts to define himself or herself and establish goals for living. The fifth stage is the stage that is called the reentry shock. This occurs when a person returns to the newly acquired customs are considered improper in the old culture.
Questions 56—60
Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, with only one word for each blank.
Introduced in 1958, culture shock is a term used to (56) __________ physical and emotional discomfort people experience when they come to or live in a new place. Although many people suffer a lot from culture shock, it is an (57) _________ for personal improvement. The five stages of culture shock may last for a long time or show up once in a while. In the first stage, the (58) __________ stage, the new arrival might be OK with everything. Afterward, (59) ________ from old methods to the new one calls for time and energy. During the third and fourth stage, people may gain more understanding of the new culture and possess objective views. The double or triple integration is (60) __________ by a feeling of belonging. The last stage, called reentry shock, refers to the feeling people have when returning to their home country.
Section B (10 marks)
Questions 61-65 are based on the following passage.
For some people, it would be unthinkable. But Gabe Henderson is finding freedom in a recent decision; he canceled his MySpace account. The 26 years old graduate student stopped his account after realizing that a lot of his online friends were really just acquaintanc es. ―The
superficial emptiness clouded the excitement I had once felt,‖ Henderson wrote in an article. ―It seems we have lost, to some degree, the special depth that true friendship is about.‖Journalism professor Michael Bugeja, who is a strong supporter of face-to-face communication, read Henderson’s column and saw it was a sign of hope. Though he’s not anti-technology, Bugeja often lectures students about ―interpersonal intelligence‖—knowing when, where, and for what purpose technology is most appropriate. He points out the students he’s seen walking across campus, holding hands with each other while talking on cell phones to someone else He’s also seen them in coffee shops, surrounded by people, but staring instead at a computer screen. ―True friends,‖ he says, ―need to learn when to stop blogging and go across campus to help a friend.‖
These days, young people are more wired than ever—but they’re also getting more worried. Increasingly, they’ve had to deal with online bullies, who are posting anything f rom embarrassing photos to online threats. And increasingly, young people also are realizing that things they post on their profiles can come back to hurt them when applying for schools or jobs.
Social networking can be an ―extremely effective‖ way to publ icize events to large groups. It can even help build a sense of community on campus. People joined Facebook as a way to meet others. However, it has limitations. A good Internet profile could make even the most boring person seem some what interesting. People are also not always happy with text messages on the cell phones. Cell phones can be a quick way to say ―have a good day‖. But friends can also cancel a night out with a text message to avoid having to explain. ―Our generation needs to get over this fea r of confrontation and rejection.‖ Henderson says. ―The focus needs to be on quality communication, in all ways.‖ Back in his life, Henderson is enjoying spending more face-to-face time with his friends and less with his computer. He says his decision to quit his social-networking Internet accounts was a good one. ―I’m not sacrificing friends,‖ he says, ―because if a picture, some basic information about their life and a Web page is all my friendship has become, then there was nothing to sacrifice to begin with.‖
Questions 61—63
Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.
61. Although Henderson quit MySpace, most of his online friends are actually close friends.
62. According to Bugeja, young people should know when to use technology and when to stop using it.
63. Social networking helps build a sense of community but has a negative effect on young people’s life if it is used inappropriately.
Questions 64—65
Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.
64. What does Henderson lose by using social networking websites like Myspace?
65. What do young people need to overcome in order to focus on quality communication? Section C (10 marks)
Questions 66—70 are based on the following passage.
―Five …Four …Three …Two …
One …See ya! ‖ and Chance McGuire,
twenty-five, is airborne off a 600 –foot
concrete dam in Northern California. In one
second he falls 15 feet, in two seconds 60 feet,
and after three seconds and 130 feet, he is
flying at 66 miles an hour.
McGuire is a practitioner of what he calls
the king of all extreme sports. BASE—an
acronym for building, antenna, span (bridge)
and earth (cliffs)—jumping has one of the sporting world’s highest fatality rates: in its 18-year history, forty –six participants have been killed. Yet the sport has never been more popular, with more than a thousand jumpers in the United States, and more seeking to get into it every day. It is an activity without margin for error. If your chute malfunctions, don’t bother researching for a reserve—there isn’t time. There are no second chances.
Still, the sport may be a perfect fit with the times. Americans may have more in common with McGuire than they know or care to admit. America has embarked on a national orgy of thrill seeking and risk taking. The rise of adventure and extreme sports such as BASE jumping, snowboarding, ice climbing, skateboarding, and paragliding is merely the most vivid
manifestation of this new national behavior.
The rising popularity of extreme sports speaks of an eagerness on the part of millions of Americans to participate in activities closer to the edge, where danger, skill, and fear combine to give weekend warriors and professional athletes alike a sense of pushing out personal boundaries. According to American Sports Data Inc., a consulting firm, participation in so-called extreme sports is way up. Snowboarding has grown 113 percent in five years and now boasts nearly 5.5 million participants. Mountain hiking, skateboarding, scuba diving—their growth curves reveal a nation that loves to play with danger. Contrast that with activities such as baseball, touch football, and aerobics, all of which were in steady decline throughout the 1990s.
The pursuits that are becoming more popular have one thing in common: the perception that they are somehow more challenging than a game of touch football. ―Every human being with two legs and two arms is going to wonder how fast, how strong, how enduring he or she is,‖ says Eric Perlman, a mountaineer and film ma ker specializing in extreme sports. ―We are designed to experience or die.‖
Questions 66—68
Complete the following sentences with information given in the passage in a maximum of 4 words for each blank.
66. _______ rates doesn’t stop people from getting in to BASE jumping every day.
67. The rise of extreme sports manifests the national behavior of _______ and ________.
68. The combination of fear, skill and danger gives both amateurs and professionals a sense of
______.
Questions 69—70
Choose the best answer according to the passage.
69. Which of the following activities reveals a nation that loves to play activities closer to the edge?
A. Touch football.
B. Baseball.
C. Scuba diving.
D. Aerobics.
70. What does Eric mean by saying ―We are designed to experience or die‖?
A. Life with great challenges is a meaningful one.
B. Life without great experiences is very common.
C. People may die while doing extreme sports.
D. Extreme sports are essential parts of human life.
Section D (10 marks)
Questions 71—75 are based on the following passage.
Albert Einstein was one of the greatest thinkers the world has ever known. He formulated theories of relativity, successfully described the nature of the universe and came up with the most famous equation in the world. David Beckham is the footballer whose skills and precision have made him one of the most gifted sportsmen of his generation. Who is more intelligent?
How Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences (MI) dares us to put these two men on neighboring pedestals. Instead of regarding intelligence as a single quantity measurable by pen-and-paper tests, Gardner, an education professor at Harvard University, divides human intelligence into no fewer than eight separate categories ranging from mathematical to musical competence. (74)His ideas have provoked vigorous debate about how one defines intelligence. Gardner’s point is that quantity measures on ly one capacity, the sort of mental agility that is valued in academic achievement, and that this single number does not do justice to human potential. So he has created his own spheres of achievement. Some categories are easily reconcilable with general p erceptions about IQ. For example, ―linguistic‖ intelligence confers a mastery of language, and is the preserve of such people as poets, writers and linguists. ―Logical mathematical‖ intelligence marks out people who take a reasoning approach to physical th ings, and seek underlying principles. Einstein is the standard –bearer of this group, which also includes philosophers. These two categories are the main components of what we generally think of as ―intelligence‖.
―Musical‖ intelligence characterizes musicians, composers and conductors. ―Spatial‖ intelligence is about being able to picture perspective, to visualize a world in one’s head with great accuracy. Chess players, artists and architects would rate highly in this category. Dancers,
athletes and actor s are lumped under the ―bodily-kinesthetic‖ heading; these individual, like Beckham, are able to control their bodies and movements very carefully.
Then come two types of ―personal‖ intelligence-intrapersonal, the ability to gauge one’s own mood, feelings and mental states, and interpersonal, being able to gauge it in others and use the information. These two categories could be interpreted as emotional intelligence. Psychiatrists are particularly adept at the former, while religious leaders and politicians are seen as people who can exploit the latter.
Charles Darwin is perhaps the perfect embodiment of the eighth intelligence –―naturalist‖. This label describes people with a deep understanding of the natural world and its objects. Zoologists and botanists can count themselves among this group.
(75)These eight categories certainly reflect the fact that, in these areas, there is a spectrum of human ability ranging from the hopeless to the brilliant. But are these really intelligences, or could these competences be more accurately described as gifts or talents?
Questions 71—73
Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.
71. What are the main components of ―intelligence‖ we generally think of?
72. What kind of abilities does emotional intelligence involve?
73. Which intelligences are represented by Einstein and Beckham respectively?
Questions 74—75
Translate the underlined sentences in the passage into Chinese.

There may be a slight chill (寒冷) in the air, with temperatures staying around 15℃in March, but Spain's handsome capital is slowly starting to warm up. Even more attractive are the cultural events. A new exhibition on the living and working spaces of Spain's greatest artist, Picasso, has just opened in the studio at the Fundacion Mapfe at Paseo de Recoletos 23. It runs until 11 May with rarely seen pieces borrowed from his family. Later this summer, the 400th anniversary of the death of the Renaissance (文艺复兴) painter EI Greco will be marked with an exciting exhibition at the Museo del Prado at Pasco del Prado from 24 June to 5 October. How to go? The widest range of flights is offered by EasyJet—from Bristol, Edinburgh, Gatwick, Liverpool and Luton. British Airways and its sister airline Iberia combine forces from Heathrow and London City. Ryanair flies from Manchester and Stansted; Air Europa flies from Gatwick. Barajas airport is 13km north-east of the city centre and is served by frequent trains on Metro line 8, but the shortest underground journey is a bit complex with at least one change at Nuevos Ministerios station and takes about 30 minutes. The fare to any station in the city centre is €4.50. The airport express bus runs every 15 to 35 minutes around the clock; €5 one way. It takes 40 minutes to reach the city centre. A taxi takes half the time. A flat rate of €30 covers mast of central Madrid. 1. When will the exhibition about Picasso close? A. On 23 March. B. On 11 May. C. On 24 June. D. On 5 October. 2. Which airline operates flights from Manchester to Madrid? A. EasyJet. B. Ryanair. C. Air Europa. D. British Airways. 3. What is the fastest way to reach central Madrid from Barajas airport? A. Take a taxi. B. Take a city bus.
