Part II Reading Comprehension (2×20=40 points)
Points
Directions: There are four 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 a single line through the center.
Passage One
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Do animals fall in love? Konrad Lorenz, studying the behavior of geese, describes a typical example. Ado’s mate, Susanne-Elisabeth, was killed by a fox. He stood silently by her partly eaten body, which lay across their nest. In the following days, he hung his head and his eyes became vacant. Because he did not have the heart to defend himself from the attacks of the other
geese, his status in the flock fell sharply. A year went by. Finally Ado pulled himself together and found another mate.
Animals may fall in love dramatically. According to Lorenz two geese are most likely to “fall in love” when they have known each other as youngsters, been separated and then meet again. He compared this to a man who meets a woman and --- astonished that she is the same girl he used to see running around in a school uniform --- falls in love and marries her. According to parrot specialist Sue Athan, it is common for some parrots to fall in love at first sight.
Instinct may urge animals to love, but it does not say whom they will love. Seeking a mate for a male parrot, Athan purchased a fine-feathered young female and introduced the two birds. To Aathan’s disappointment, “the male nevertheless acted like the female wasn’t even in the room.”
A few months later Athan was given an older female in extremely poor condition. “She didn’t have a feature from the neck down,” she says. “Her feet were all twisted. She had lines around her eyes. And yet the male thought she was the love of his life.” The two birds immediately paired off and eventually produced young.
11. Susanne-Elisabeth is the name of ______.
A) a researcher
B) a fox
C) a girl
D) a female goose
12. The main point of the story of Ado is to show that some animals _______.
A) live together after raising young
B) are deeply saddened when a mate dies
C) ensure adequate protection for their young
D) fight other animals
13. When Athan bought her parrot a mate he _______.
A) bit her
B) took to it at once
C) did not realize it was there
D) ignored it
14. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?
A) Animals will never feel sad when their mates die.
B) Male parrots love beautiful female parrots.
C) It is common for some parrots to fall in love at first sight.
D) Instinct can decide which one an animal should love.
15. From this passage, what can we know about animals?
A) Some animals do experience love in their lives.
B) Animals only love those in good conditions.
C) All behaviors are decided by animals’ instincts.
D) Animals will love anyone in their group without making any choice.
Passage Two
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
Ever since I was very small, I’ve had the sense that I ought to be somewhat else. I remember watching trains flash by and wishing I was on board. I remember going to the airport with my parents when I was 13 and reading the destinations board, seeing all the places that I could go to: Los Angeles, Chicago, London.
But the trains passed by and the planes took off without me, so I wandered the world through books. I went to Victorian England in the pages of Middlemarch and A Little Princess, and to St. Petersburge before the fall of the tsar with Anna Karenina.
My home was in a pleasant place outside Philadelphia. But I really lived, truly lived, somewhere else. I lived within the covers of books. In books I traveled, not only to other worlds, but into my own. I learned who I was and who I wanted to be, what I might achieve, and what I might dare to dream about my world and myself.
I travel today in the way I once dreamed of traveling as a child --- on airplanes and in trains. And the irony is that I don’t care for it very much. I am the sort of person who prefers to stay at home, surrounded by family, friends, books. The only thing I do like about traveling is the time on airplanes spent reading.
It turns out that when my younger self thought of taking wing, she wanted only to let her spirit soar. Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the real destinations, and the journey too. They are home.
16. What did the writer do as a curious child?
A) She visited Victorious England and Tarist Russia.
B) She flew to Los Angeles, Chicago and London with her parents.
C) She read all kinds of books.
D) She spent lots of time traveling on trains.
17. How does the author feel about travel today?
A) She doesn’t like it very much.
B) She takes great pleasure in it.
C) She feels tired of it.
D) She feels as excited as when she was young.
18. What did the author learn from books as a child?
A) About many foreign places.
B) About many historical figures.
C) About the outside world as well as her own self.
D) About the ironies of life.
19. We can infer from the passage that when traveling by air, the author spends most of her time
on the way_______.
A) reading books
B) reading herself
C) imagining things
D) letting her spirit soar
20. In this passage the author mainly talks about _______.
A) the wonders of travel
B) her growth from an innocent child to a learned woman
C) the benefits of reading
D) the difference between childhood dreams and life’s realities
Passage Three
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
Nowadays, it is important to understand correct gift-giving behaviour around the world.
So what is an appropriate and thoughtful gift? Rogers, an American businessman based in Chicago, says that anything that from your home country that is difficult to get elsewhere would be good. For example, a fancy packet of Hawaiian pineapples would be appreciated. Once you have got to know someone try to give them a present to suit their personal interests as well. If your business partner enjoys football, for example, why not get them a shirt of his favorite team? But remember gifts of clothing from a man to a woman may seem too intimate and might suggest an inappropriate relationship.
When to give the gift also depends on your culture. Westerners usually give gifts when they meet each other but in Eastern cultures it is more usual to give gifts when you leave. There may also be special holiday times when gift-giving is expected. Christmas is a time for gift-giving in Christian countries and Muslim people exchange cards during the festival at the end of Ramadan, the Holy Month.
All gifts should be wrapped. In some cultures the wrapping paper has special meanings. For example, the Chinese feel red is lucky. Especially at New Year the Chinese like to give money in red envelopes called “Hong Bao”, and presents with a red pattern are usual. White paper wrapping should be avoided as the color white is associated with funerals in China.
Westerners usually open gifts immediately and thank the giver but in Asia it is more usual to open the gift later in private. This is to protect the gift-giver from any embarrassment if the gift is discovered to be inappropriate in any way. Additionally in Asia, it is considered polite to refuse the gift at the beginning and for the gift-giver to have to insist that the other person accepts.
Gift-giving customs vary from country to country so it is difficult to be correct in every situation. But if you learn the general rules and do a bit of research on the customs of the places you will visit you will not go too far wrong.
21. What sorts of gifts would be appropriate, according to Rogers?
A) Things that from your own place that are difficult to get locally in the
place where you are visiting
B) Things that are difficult to get in your own country
C) Things that suit your own personal interests
D) Anything
22. The word “intimate” (Para 3) most probably means “______”.
A) personal B) secret C)
close D) private
23. Asian people tend to open gifts in private because _________.
A) Because they consider impolite to open gifts in public
B) Because they don't want to appear greedy
C) Because they don’t want the donor to lose face if the gift is not
appropriate
D) Because they feel embarrassed to open gifts immediately
24. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A) When giving gifts, we should remember the country’s religion.
B) We should avoid giving things that are not appropriate.
C) We should chose the wrapping paper carefully
D) In Europe, people usually refuse the gift many times before they take
it
25. The best title for this passage would be _______.
A) What is an Appropriate Gift B) The Art of Gift-giving
C) The Importance of Gift-giving D) How to Avoid Mistakes in Gift-giving
Passage Four
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
Why are British people so interested in spending money on their homes? One reason is economic. Buying a house is usually the most expensive single purchase that any person will ever make. The average price of a home in Britain was 100,000 pounds in 2001.
Very few people can afford to buy a house outright,for cash, and so they have to take out a loan, called a mortgage, from a bank to pay for the house. This loan then needs to be paid back over a long period of time, often twenty-five years.
Given such a large and long investment, it makes sense for people to spend time renovating and extending their property in order to make it worth more money if they sell the house; or to give themselves more space if they continue to live in it.
Furthermore, house prices have risen spectacularly over the last years as more people choose to buy, rather than rent, their homes. Property prices increased by more than 33% in the 1990s alone. Another British saying, “Safe as houses”reveals their attitude towards investing in property.
Can this trend towards owning your own property continue? British has a long-established base of houses and not much new space to build new ones. Bur fortunately Britain’s population is not growing very fast and so the number of new houses and flats built every year, about 200,000 in the year 2001, is not quite enough to cater for demand. Consequently, as demand outstrips supply, prices rise.
But another, perhaps more compelling, reason for the urge to spend money on the house, is psychological. Dr. John Russell of Bournemouth University says, “The home is of great emotional and cultural significance for people. People try to express themselves in front of others through their houses.”
So houses are no longer just about bricks and mortar. Homes are about safety and security, warmth and comfort. They are an outward sign of one’s identity, of one’s status and achievements. “Ultimately,” says Dr. Russell, “homes are about a sense of belonging.”
26. What is the main idea of this passage?
A) Buying a house is usually the most expensive single purchase in Britain
B) To analyze the reasons why house prices have risen spectacularly over
the last few years.
C) To predict whether or not house prices will continue to rise.
D) To analyze the reasons why British people are interested in spending money
on their home.
27. What is the meaning of the word “outright”(in para. 2) ?
A) completely and totally
B) directly
C) partly
D) decisively
28. Why do British people spend time to renovate and extend their property?
A) Because house buying is a large and long investment.
B) In order to make the house worth more money if they sell it.
C) In order to give themselves more space if they continue to live in it.
D) Both A, B and C.
29. What can you infer from “Safe as houses” (in para. 4)?
A) Houses are usually cheap in Britain.
B) It’s safer to live in a house than outdoors.
C) It is safe to invest in property.
D) House prices will keep steady in the next year.
30. Why are British people so interested in spending money on their homes?
A) Because of economic reason.
B) Because of psychological reason
C) Both A and B.
D) Houses are an outward sign of one’s identity, status and achievements.

大学英语三级B级-阅读理解(三) (总分：25.00，做题时间：90分钟) 一、单项选择题(总题数：5，分数：25.00) Task 6 The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a wasted product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better. Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully. There is a saying about it being so noisy that you can't hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think. If we don't, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems. Noise adds more tension (紧张) to a society that already faces enough stress. But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome, people complained so much about noise that the government stopped chariots (四轮马车) from moving through the streets at night! Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return to the "good old days" of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise--if we shout loudly enough about it. （分数：5.00） (1).Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study?（分数：1.00） A.Because the world is becoming more and more noisy. √ B.Because they have learned that noise is also a kind of pollution. C.Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings. · D.Because people knew little about the danger of noise before. 解析：细节判断题。第二段第三、四句话解释了原因：和平安静的地方很难找到，噪音对人类是一种威胁，人们应认真对待。 (2).What may be the result if we cannot hear ourselves think?（分数：1.00） A.We may forget what we have thought about. B.Our thoughts may be interfered. C.Our mind may be harmed. √ D.We may have difficulty using the right words. 解析：细节辨认题。从文中第三段的If we don’t，we may have headaches，other aches and pains，or even worse mental problems．这句话可知：如果我们听不到自己的声音，可能会产生头痛、其他疼痛，甚至会出现更糟糕的大脑问题。 ` (3).When the writer says we cannot return to the "good old days", he means that ______（分数：1.00） A.our society is becoming much worse than before B.in our modern society it is hard to lead a quiet life √ C.the old days were much happier than the present D.it is impossible for us to deal with noise as we did before______ 解析：推理题。从文章最后一段可知B是正确的。 (4).From the last sentence of the passage we can learn that（分数：1.00） A.we can put noise under control if our measures are effective @
