Writing第三部分阅读和写作VI.Reading comprehension（共30分）A.Choose the best answer.(12分)Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of acity?In order to answer this question,we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area.Not all historical buildings are attractive.However,there may be other reasons—for example,economic reasons—why they should be preserved.So,let us assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people.What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view,new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style.Indeed, there are many examples in my own hometown of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings.As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响)its surroundings too much,it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏)the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too.Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas.I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings,I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward.If we always reproduced what was there before,we would all still be living in caves.Thus,I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different,even though that might be the more risky choice.69.What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A.Some of them are not attractive.B.Most of them are too expensive to preserve.C.They are more pleasing than modern buildings.D.They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.70.Why do people still speak against new buildings in historic areas according to the author?A.Because historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people.B.Because new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style.C.Because people like following old ideas and do not like change.D.Because people have to respect new architectural styles.71.Which of the following is true according to the author?A.We should reproduce the same old buildings.B.Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C.Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.D.No one understands why people speak against new buildings.72.By using`“move things forward”in the last paragraph,the author probably means“_______”.A.Destroy old buildingsB.Put things in a different placeC.Choose new architectural stylesD.Respect people’s feelings for historical buildings73.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To explain why people dislike change.B.To warn that we could end up with living in caves.C.To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.D.To argue that modern buildings an be built in historic areas.74.What is the author’s attitude towards the topic“Should we allow modern buildings to be builtnext to older buildings in a historic area of a city?”A.UninterestedB.SupportiveC.NeutralD.DisapprovedB.Choose the words or expressions and complete the passage.(12分)In1973,I was teaching elementary school.Each day,27kids entered“The Thinking Laboratory.”That was the name students voted for after deciding that“Room104”was too dull.Freddy was an average student,but not an average

met forty years before.Once,while working over night at a store,he let a homeless man sleep in his truck.Another time,he lent a friend money to buy a house.Just last year,I was____79______a workshop when someone knocked at the classroom door.A woman excused the interruption and handed me an envelope.I stopped teaching and opened it up.Inside were the“Verbs”shirt and a note from Freddy’s mother.“Freddy passed away on Thanksgiving.He wanted you to have this.”I told the story to the class.As sad as it was,I couldn’t help smiling.Although Freddy was taken from us,we

elevator is an unremarkable machine that inspires none of the enthusiasm or interest that Americans afford trains,jets，and even bicycles.Dr.Christopher Wilk is a member of a small group of elevator experts who c___81___this a misunderstanding.Without the elevator,they point out,there could be no downtown skyscrapers or tall buildings,and city life as we know it would be i___82___.In that sense,they argue，the elevator’s role in American history has been no less significant than that of cars.In fact,according to Wilk?the car and the elevator have been locked in a“secret war”for over a century,with cars making it possible for people to spread horizontally(水平地)，and elevators pushing them toward life in close groups of towering vertical(垂直的)columns.If we tend to ignore the significance of elevators,it might be because riding in them tends to be such a brief,boring,and even awkward experience one that can involve unexpectedly meeting people with whom we have nothing in common,and an unpleasant a____83__of the fact thatwe’re hanging from a cable in a long passage.In a new book,Lifted,German journalist and cultural studies professor Andreas Bernard directed all his a___84___to this experience,studying the origins of elevator and its r____85____to humankind and finding that riding in an elevator has never been a totally comfortable experience.“After150years,we are still not used to it”，Bernard said.“We still have not exactly learned to cope with the mixture of closeness and displeasure.”That mixture,according to Bernard, sets the elevator ride apart from just about every other s___86____we find ourselves in as we go about our lives.Today，as the world’s urban population explodes，and cities become more c__87____, taller,and more crowded,America’s total number of elevators—900,000at last count,according to Elevator World magazine’s“2012Vertical Transportation Industry”一are a force that’s becoming more important than ever.And for the people who really,really love them,it seems like high time that we looked seriously at just what kind of force they are.81c______82i______83.______84________85_______86._____87.______D.Read the passage and

century, people’s IQ test scores have gotten steadily higher---on average,three points higher each decade. This improvement is known as the“Flynn effect”,and scientists want to know what is behind it.IQ tests are designed to measure general intelligence rather than knowledge.Flynn believes that intelligence partly comes from our parents and partly is the result of our environment,but the improvement in test scores has been happening too quickly to be explained by heredity（遗传）. So what has occurred in the20th century to help people achieve higher scores?Scientists have proposed several explanations for the Flynn effect.Some suggest that the improved test scores simply reflect an increased exposure to tests in general and the learning of test-taking techniques that help us perform better on any test.Others have pointed to better nutrition.Babies now are born larger,healthier,and with more brain development than in the past. Another suggested explanation is a change in educational styles,with teachers encouraging children to learn by discovering things for themselves rather than just memorizing information, which improves their problem-solving skills.Flynn has limited the possible explanations after carefully examining test data and discovering that the improvement in scores has taken place in only certain parts of the IQ test.Test-takers are not doing better on the maths or vocabulary sections of the test;they are doing better on the sections requiring reasoning and problem solving.For example,one part of the test shows a set of shapes,and test-takers must find the patterns and connections between them.According to Flynn,this visual intelligence improves as the amount of technology in our lives increases.Every time you play a computer game,you are exercising exactly the kind of thinking and problem solving that helps you do well on one kind of intelligence test.So are you really smarter than your parents?In one very specific way,you may be.Questions88.Does Flynn think you are smarter than your parents and grandparents?(1分)89.What do IQ tests focus on,general intelligence or knowledge?(2分)90.How do educational styles help people do better in the test according to some scientists?(2分)91.Which sections did the test takers do better in the test on?(2分)92.Why does the writer mention computer games?(2分)93.Do you agree with Flynn?Why or why not?(3分)参考答案26-30DBADD31-35DBABB36-40ADABA41-45CADDC46.D47.A48.E49.B50.C51.A52.B53.E54.trickier55.habitual56.essence57.skillfully58.respetable59.exchange60.electricity61.requirements62.Did,stick63.It's,since64.am woken65.isn't it66.What important67.preferred,to 69.A70.C71.C72.C73.D74.B75.A76.A77.D78.C79.D80.B81.consider82.impossible83.awareness84.attention85.relationship86.situation87. crowded88.Yes,he does89.General intelligence90.By increasing exposure to tests and learning test-taking techniques.91.The sections requiring reasoning and problem solving92.To prove that increasing the amount of technology in our lives can improve the visual intelligence.93.略。
