二、阅读理解(每题10分，共4题)
1. Soci al change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.
注：装订线内禁止答题，装订线外禁止有姓名和其他标记。
Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposite; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.
Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with sharp dichotomies(一分为二). This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts.
1. The following factors tend to promote social change EXCEPT ________.
A) different kinds of people B) different points of view
C) different interest D) different conditions
2. The expression “greater tolerance” (Line 8, Para. 1) refers to _________.
A) more respect for different beliefs and behaviors
B) quicker adaptation to changing circumstances
C) greater willingness to accept social change
D) greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas
3. According to passage, which of the following is TRUE within a society?
A) Social change is less likely to occur in technology than in values.
B) What people learned in their early times tends to change quickly.
C) The basic and emotional aspects of society tend to slow sown social change.
D) Strange elements are likely to quicken social change.
4. Social change is easier if it takes place ______.
A) step by step
B) among Black Americans
C) between Black Americans and their white counterparts
D) between Black Americans and other American minorities
5. The passage is mainly discussing _______.
A) the necessity of social change
B) certain factors that determine the ease with which social change occur
C) the way to slow down social change
D) how to promote social change
2. For some time past it has been widely accepted that babies -- and other creatures -- learn to do things because certain acts lead to "rewards"; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective rewards, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological (生理的) "drives" as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.
It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce resuits in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.
Papousek began his studies by using milk in the normal way to "reward" the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still goon making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children's responses in situations where no milk was provided.

He quickly found that children as young as four months would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement "switched on" a display of lights-and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result ,for instance ,two left or two right ,or even to make as many as three turns to one side.
Papousek's light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would "smile and bubble" when the display came on. Papousek concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the world and bring it under intentional control .
1.According to the author, babies learn to do things which_______
A)are directly related to pleasure
B)will meet their physical needs
C)will bring them a feeling of success
D)will satisfy their curiosity
2.Papousek noticed in his studies that a baby________
A)would make learned responses when it saw the milk
B)would carry out learned movements when it had enough to drink
C)would continue the simple movements without being given milk
D)would turn its head to right or left when it had enough to drink
3.In Papousek's experiment babies make learned movements of the head in order to_______
A)have the lights turned on
B)be rewarded with milk
C)please their parents
D)be praised
4.The babies would "smile and bubble" at the lights because_____
A)the lights were directly related to some basic "drives"
B)the sight of the lights was interesting
C)they need not turn back to watch the lights
D)they succeeded in "switching on" the lights
5.According to Papousek, the pleasure babies get in achieving something is a reflection of
__________
A)a basic human desire to understand and control the world
B)the satisfaction of certain physiological needs
C)their strong desire to solve complex problems
D)a fundamenta1human urge to display their learned skills
3. Many young British doctors drink too much and use cannabis and other illegal drugs, according to a survey released last week.
The poll of 14 junior doctors in northeastern England, published in a letter in The Lancet medical journal, showed that more than 60 per cent drank more alcohol than the recommended safe limits.
注：装订线内禁止答题，装订线外禁止有姓名和其他标记。
Over 35 per cent of male doctors and 19 per cent of female physicians also admitted using cannabis and up to 13 per cent also took other drugs.
"The current drinking habits, illegal drug use, and stress in some junior doctors is of concern, not only for their own well being, but also how they affect patients' care," said Dr. Farhad Kam all of the University of Newcastle, who conducted the study.
The British Medical Association (BMA) said the findings were consistent with its own research into the habits of the junior doctors.
The survey was released a day after Dr. Patrick Dixon, a British AIDS expert and author, called for random testing of doctors for alcohol and drug abuse.
Exxon, the author of "The Truth about Drugs", said that the problem, posed a significant
threat to the public health because patients' lives were being put at risk.
"With around 10 per cent of all doctors either intoxicated (沉醉) or withdrawing (from drugs or alcohol) we are faced with the fact that significant numbers of doctors have impaired judgment because of addiction," Dixon said in a telephone interview.
He claimed that more than 1,000 addicted doctors in London were addicts but he said their colleagues were reluctant to identify them because of fear of retribution (报复).
"Our estimate is that up to 10 percent of doctors may have a drug or alcohol problem at some time in their working lives," a BMA spokeswoman said.

A) it is quite fashionable to take cannabis in Britain

B) had negative influence over the younger doctors
C) presented a great threat to the public health
D) was a pretty new social phenomenon in Britain
4. The word "impaired" (Para. 8) means
A) irresponsible B) weakened C) false D) paired up
5. The colleagues of the addicted doctors were unwilling to identify them because they
A) did not want to lose friendship
B) lacked self-confidence
C) didn't want to get punished
D) didn' t want the addicted doctors to be punished
4. Researchers have established that when people are mentally engaged , biochemical changes occur in the brain that allow it to act more effectively in cognitive (认知的)areas such as attention and memory. This is true regardless of age. People will be alert (警觉的)and receptive (愿意接受的)if they are faced with information that gets them to think about things they are interested in. And someone with a history of doing more rather than less will go into old age more cognitively sound than someone who has not had an active mind. Many experts are so convinced of the benefits of challenging the brain that they are putting

the theory to work in their own lives. "The idea is not necessarily to learn to memorize enormous amounts of information," says James Fozard, associate director of the National Institute on Aging. "Most of us don't need that kind of skii1.Such specific training is of less interest than being able to maintain mental alertness. "Fozard and others say they challenge their brains with different mental skills, both because t hey enjoy them and because they are sure that their range of activities will help the way their brains work. Gene Cohen ,acting director of the same institute ,suggests that people in their old age should engage in mental and physical activities individually as well as in groups. Cohen says that we are frequently advised to keep physically active as we age, but older people need to keep mentally active as well. Those who do are more likely to maintain their intellectual abilities and to be generally happier and better adjusted. "The point is, you need to do both," Cohen says. "Intellectual activity actually influences brain-cell health and size."

A) whose minds are alert and receptive
B) who are highly intelligent.

A)remain a theory to be further proved
B)have been challenged by many other experts
C)are practised by the researchers themselves
D)have been generally accepted
4.Older people are generally advised to
A) keep mentally active by challenging their brains
B)keep fit by going in for physical activities
C)maintain mental alertness through specific training
D)maintain a balance between individual and group activities
5.What is the passage mainly about?
A)How biochemical changes occur in the human brain.

In the United States a university professor is given a few months of freedom from his duties about every seventh year for travel or advanced study. This period of freedom from teaching is called a “study or research leave”. Its purpose is to give the professor experiences which will make him a wiser person and a better teacher when he returns to his university. Few study leaves are interesting enough to be described in national newspapers and magazines. Recently, however, there was an exception. The public learned how Dr. John R. Coleman, president of Haverford College, had spent his study leave. At the age of 51, Dr. Coleman was determined to escape from university life for a few months and to get a variety of experiences in the world of work. He especially wanted to learn about people. People who do hard physical labor were especially interesting to him. “I wanted to get away from the world of words and political matters and parties – the things a president does,” Dr. Coleman later explained to news writers. “As a college president you begin to take yourself very seriously and to think you have power you don't. You forget things about people. I wanted to relearn things I’d forgotten.” Telling no on e of his plans, Dr. Coleman started his study leave on a farm in Canada, hundreds of miles from his college. Getting up at 4:30 each morning, working thirteen hours a day in fields, he prepared himself physically for his next job, digging ditches in Atlanta, GeorgiA、 After that, the college president washed dishes ina Boston restaurant. During the last ten days of his leave, he worked as a garbage collector. 1. The first paragraph is mainly about _______________. A、why a professor should be free from his duties every seventh year B、how professors spend their study leave C、what a study leave is and its purpose D、how a study leave makes a professor a wiser person and a better teacher 2. A study leave is a period of freedom from duties allowed to a university teacher who has taught ________ since his last leave. A、for six years B、for seven years C、for a term D、for a university year 3. People learned about Dr. Coleman's unusual experiences from ________. A、his colleagues B、the boss of a Boston restaurant C、the Canadian newspapers and magazines D、the U.S. newspapers and magazines 4. Dr. Coleman carried out his study leave in an unusual way because ________. A、he hates his university life, especially his job as a president B、he wanted to learn about people, especially people who do hard physical labor

You should write at least 120 words following the outline given below. 1.娱乐活动多种多样 2.娱乐活动可能使人们受益，也可能有危害性 3.作为大学生，我的看法 Recreational Activities The twenty-first century has brought with it an unprecedented variety of recreational activities. They range from traditional outdoor activities such as playing ball games to all kinds of online ones. Some people think those various recreational activities brought by modern technology are great and necessary because they can help people relax from hard work and study and broaden people ’horizon. However, some people think that too many recreational activities may have a bad effect on people ’s lives. Some people may not resist some temptations and indulge themselves i n those activities, such as the online games. At last they are lured away from their studies, work and interpersonal relationships. In my opinion , we should pay more attention to the advantages of various recreational activities and make the most of them to enrich our lives and broaden the scope of knowledge. When it comes to those time-consuming and less meaningful activities, I think to stay away from them is a wise decision. 2.
