示例[A] [B] [▆] [D]Passage 1A farmer had once made a purchase of a fine fat sheep, hoping to offer it up to the Buddha. While he was leading it home, four thieves saw him and made up their minds to steal the sheep. They knew him to be an honest person and one who thought of no more harm in others than he had in himself. They dared not take the sheep away from him by force, for they were too near the city. Therefore, they thought hard and got an idea: they first parted company and then came to the man as if they had come from several distinct parts.The first thief came up to the farm and said, “My good old man, why are you leading this dog?”At this moment the second thief, coming from another direction, cried to him, “ Poor old man, where have you stolen this dog?” And immediately after these words, thethird thief came up and asked the farmer, “Where are you going with this handsome greyhound?”The poor farmer began to doubt whether the sheep was a sheep or not. But the fourth robber put him quite beside himself by coming near him and asking what the dog cost him.The farmer began to think and got the conclusion that the four men, who came from different directions, could not all be wrong. He believed that the sheep he was leading was a dog. On realizing this, the farmer went back quickly to the market to demand his money of the person who sold him the dog, leaving the dog with the four thieves.1.The farmer ___________B_____.A. bought a sheep in the cityB. bought a sheep in the marketC. led a sheep to the market to sell C. stole a sheep in the city12.

In the eleventh century China was producing two and a half times as much iron as did England and Wales together in 1640. By the twelfth century several Chinese cities had a population equal to that of the whole contemporary England --- about 1.3 million people. When the Westerners began their attack of Constantinople in 1203, they were full of respects for those high walls, those mighty towers, those rich palaces and churches, of which there were so many that no man could believe it if he had not seen them with their own eyes.In modern times the situation was changed, thanks in large part to the profits from overseas trade and colonies, and to the settlement in new continents. Therefore, ninety percent of the world’s total indus trial output comes today from European origin. About two-thirds of the world’s people are earning about $200 per capita every year, while the remaining one-third enjoy per capita incomes as high as $2,400 in the case of the United States.16.

Europe began to develop when they attacked ConstantinopleD. Westerners set up colonies after they became richPassage 3The body of an animal may well be compared with some machine like a locomotive engine. Indeed, the animal body is a machine. It is a machine composed of many parts doing some particular kind of work for which a particular kind of structure fits it. All the parts are dependent on each other and work together for the accomplishment of the total business of the machine. The locomotive must be provided with fuel, such as coal or wood or other combustible substance, the consumption of which provides the force or energy of the machine. The animal body must be provided wit fuel, which is called food, which similarly provides the energy of the animal. Oxygen must be provided for the combustion of the fuel in the locomotive and of the food in the body. The locomotive is composed of special parts: the fire box for the storage and combustion of fuel; the steam pipes for the carriage of steam; the wheels for locomotion; the chimney for throwing off waste. The animal body is similarly composed of such parts as the stomach for the storage and digestion of food, the organs for the throwing off of waste water, the blood vessels for the carriage of oxygen and food-holding blood, the legs or wings for locomotion.21. The body of an animal is like a locomotive in that _______A____________.A. it is composed of many parts that work just like different parts of a locomotiveB. it can do some particular kind of workC. it works like all the machines in the worldD. both the animal and the locomotive need coal or wood as their fuel22.

The function of the animal’s legs is like ____________A______ of a machine.A. the wheelsB. chimneyC. steam pipesD. the fire box25. The steam pipes of a locomotive work like the __B________________ of an animal body.A. stomachB. blood vesselsC. legsD. wingsPassage 4I once amused myself by asking persons on the street, in stores and on street cars what they most desired out of life. This was before the polls of Mr. Gallup or of the inquiring reporter. I expected those questioned to place foremost good health. But they did not. Neither did they say salvation or life after death. Quite differently, their first wish was more money to spend.Secondly, they wanted more happiness out of life.These may not be the answers I thought they ought to give, but they appeared to be sincere and honest answers. Who does not want happiness,or more money to spend?As these seem to be almost universal desires they merit consideration. So, since taking this poll I have from time to time speculated on what social science might do to bring about these desiderata.Our first question is: What is the promise of social science in regard to the standard of living? After examining that, we can consider what social science promises in regard to happiness.The outlook for a higher plane of living for all of us here in the United States is very good indeed. The wealth we probably will have, however, will not be wholly an achievement of social science; it will be the result also of natural science. For we must have tools as well as markets to produce wealth.16.
