For each ofthem there are four choices marked A), B) C) and D). You should decide on thebest choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a singleline through the center. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on thefollowing passage: When global warming finally came, it stuckwith a vengeance (异乎寻常地). In some regions, temperatures rose several degrees in less than acentury. Sea levels shot up nearly 400 feet, flooding coastal settlements andforcing people to migrate inland. Deserts spread throughout the world asvegetation shifted drastically in North America, Europe and Asia.After driving many of the animals around them to near extinction, people wereforced to abandon their old way of life for a radically new survival strategythat resulted in widespread starvation and disease. The adaptation was farming:the global-warming crisis hat gave rise to it happened more than 10,000 yearsago. As environmentalists convene in Rio de Janeirothis week to ponder the global climate of the future, earth scientists are inthe midst of a revolution in understanding how climate has changed in the past —and how those changes have transformed human existence. Researchers have begunto piece together an illuminating picture of the powerful geological andastronomical forces that have combined to change the planet’s environment fromhot to cold, wet to dry and back again over a time period stretching backhundreds of millions of years. Most important, scientists are beginningto realize that the climatic changes have had a major impact on the evolutionof the human species. New research now suggests that climate shifts have playeda key role in nearly every significant turning point in human evolution: fromthe dawn of primates (灵长目动物) some 65 million years ago to human ancestors rising up to walk ontwo legs, from the huge expansion of the human brain to the rise ofagriculture. Indeed, the human history has not been merely touched by globalclimate change, some scientists argue, it has in some instances been driven byit. The new research has profound implicationsfor the environmental summit in Rio. Amongother things, the findings demonstrate that dramatic climate change is nothingnew for planet Earth. The benign (宜人的) global environment that has existed over the past 10,000 years — duringwhich agriculture, writing, cities and most other features of civilizationappeared — is a mere bright spot in a much larger pattern of widely varyingclimate over the ages. In fact, the pattern of climate change in the past revealsthat Earth’s climate will almost certainly go through dramatic changes in thefuture — even without the influence of human activity. 21. Farmingemerged as a survival strategy because man had been obliged ______. A)to give up his former way of life B)to leave the coastal areas C)to follow the ever-shifting vegetation D)to abandon his original settlement 22. Earthscientists have come to understand that climate ______. A)is going through a fundamental change B)has been getting warmer for 10,000 years C)will eventually change from hot to cold D)has gone through periodical changes 23. Scientistsbelieve that human evolution ______. A)has seldom been accompanied by climatic changes B)has exerted little influence on climatic changes C)has largely been effected by climatic changes D)has had a major impact on climatic changes 24. Evidenceof past climatic changes indicates that ______. A)human activities have accelerated changes of Earth’s environment B)Earth’s environment will remain mild despite human interference C)Earth’s climate is bound to change significantly in the future D)Earth’s climate is unlikely to undergo substantial changes in the future 25. Themessage the author wishes to convey in the passage is that ______. A)human civilization remains glorious though it is affected by climatic changes B)mankind is virtually helpless in the face of the dramatic changes of climate C)man has to limit his activities to slow down the global warming process D)human civilization will continue to develop in spite of the changes of nature Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on thefollowing passage: No woman can be too rich or too thin. Thissaying often attributed to the late Duchess (公爵夫人) of Windsor embodies much of the odd spirit of our times. Beingthin is deemed as such a virtue. The problem with such a view is that some peopleactually attempt to live by it. I myself have fantasies of slipping into narrowdesigner clothes. Consequently, I have been on a diet for the better — or worse— part of my life. Being rich wouldn’t be bad either, but that won’t happenunless an unknown relative dies suddenly in some distant land, leaving memillions of dollars. Where did we go off the track? When dideating butter become a sin, and a little bit of extra flesh unappealing, if notrepellent? All religions have certain days when people refrain from eating andexcessive eating is one of Christianity’s seven deadly sins. However, untilquite recently, most people had a problem getting enough to eat. In somereligious groups, wealth was a symbol of probable salvation and high morals,and fatness a sign of wealth and well-being. Today the opposite is true. We haveshifted to thinness as our new mark of virtue. The result is that being fat —or even only somewhat overweight — is bad because it implies a lack of moralstrength. Our obsession (迷恋) with thinness is also fueled byhealth concerns. It is true that in this country we have more overweight peoplethan ever before, and that, in many cases, being over-weight correlates with anincreased risk of heart and blood vessel disease. These diseases, however, manyhave as much to do with our way of life and our high-fat diets as with excessweight. And the associated risk of cancer in the digestive system may be moreof a dietary problem — too much fat and a lack of fiber — than a weightproblem. The real concern, then, is not that weweigh too much, but that we neither exercise enough nor eat well. Exercise isnecessary for strong bones and both heart and lung health. A balanced dietwithout a lot of fat can also help the body avoid many diseases. We shouldsurely stop paying so much attention to weight. Simply being thin is notenough. It is actually hazardous if those who get (or already are) thin thinkthey are automatically healthy and thus free form paying attention to theiroverall life-style. Thinness can be pure vainglory (虚荣). 26. Inthe eyes of the author, an odd phenomenon nowadays is that ______. A)the Duchess of Windsoris regarded as a woman of virtue. B)looking slim is a symbol of having a large fortune C)being thin is viewed as a much desired quality D)religious people are not necessarily virtuous 27. Sweptby the prevailing trend, the author ______. A)had to go on a diet for the greater part of her life B)could still prevent herself from going off the track C)had to seek help from rich distant relatives D)had to wear highly fashionable clothes 28. Inhuman history, people’s views on body weight ______. A)were closely related to their religious beliefs B)changed from time to time C)varied between the poor and the rich D)led to different oral standards 29. Theauthor criticizes women’s obsession with thinness ______. A)from an economic and educational perspective B)from sociological and medical points of view C)from a historical and religious standpoint D)in the light of moral principles 30. What’sthe author’s advice to women who are absorbed in the idea of thinness? A)They should be more concerned with their overall lifestyle. B)They should be more watchful for fatal diseases. C)They should gain weight to look healthy. D)They should rid themselves of fantasies about designer clothes. Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on thefollowing passage: War may be a natural expression ofbiological instincts and drives toward aggression in the human species. Naturalimpulses of anger, hostility, and territoriality (守卫地盘的天性) are expressed through actsof violence. Theses are all qualities that humans share with animals.Aggression is a kind of innate (天生的) survival mechanism, an instinct for self-preservation, that allowsanimals to defend themselves from threats to their existence. But, on the otherhand, human violence shows evidence of being a learned behavior. In the case ofhuman aggression, violence cannot be simply reduced to an instinct. The manyexpressions of human violence are always conditioned by social conventions thatgive shape to aggressive behavior. In human societies violence has a socialfunction: It is a strategy for creating or destroying forms of social order.Religious traditions have taken a leading role in directing the powers ofviolence. We will look at the ritual and ethical (道德上的) patterns within which humanviolence has been directed. The violence within a society iscontrolled through institutions of law. The more developed a legal systembecomes, the more society takes responsibility for the discovery, control, andpunishment of violent acts. In most tribal societies the only means to dealwith an act of violence is revenge. Each family group may have theresponsibility for personally carrying out judgment and punishment upon theperson who committed the offense. But in legal systems, the responsibility forrevenge becomes depersonalized and diffused. The society assumes theresponsibility for protecting individuals from violence. In cases where theycannot be protected, the society is responsible for imposing punishment. In asate controlled legal system, individuals are removed from the cycle of revengemotivated by acts of violence, and the state assumes responsibility for their protection. The other side of a state legal apparatusis a state military apparatus. While the one protects the individual fromviolence, the other sacrifices the individual to violence in the interests ofthe state. In war the state affirms its supreme power over the individualswithin its own borders. War is not simply a trial by combat to settle disputesbetween states; it is the moment when the state makes its most powerful demandsupon its people for their recommitment, allegiance, and supreme sacrifice.Times of war test a community’s deepest religious and ethical commitments. 31. Humanviolence shows evidence of being a learned behavior in that ______. A)it threatens the existing social systems B)it is influenced by society C)it has roots in religious conflicts D)it is directed against institutions of law 32. Thefunction of legal systems, according to the passage, is ______. A)to control violence within a society B)to protect the world from chaos C)to free society from the idea of revenge D)to give the government absolute power 33. What does the author meanby saying “… in legal systems, the responsibility for revenge becomesdepersonalized an diffused” (Lines 5-6, Para. 2) A)Legal systems greatly reduce the possibilities of physical violence. B)Offenses against individuals are no longer judged on a personal basis. C)Victims of violence find it more difficult to take revenge. D)Punishment is not carried out directly by the individuals involved. 34. Theword “allegiance” (Line 5, Para. 3) is closest in meaning to ______. A)loyalty B)objective C)survival D)motive 35. Whatcan we learn from the last paragraph? A)Governments tend to abuse their supreme power in times of war. B)In times of war governments may extend their power across national borders. C) In times ofwar governments impose high religious and ethical standards on their people. D)Governments may sacrifice individuals in the interests of the state in times ofwar. Passage Four Questions 36 to 40 are based on thefollowing passage: Researchers who are unfamiliar with thecultural and ethnic groups they are studying must take extra precautions toshed any biases they bring with them from their own culture. For example, theymust make sure they construct measures that are meaningful for each of thecultural or ethnic minority groups being studied. In conducting research on cultural andethnic minority issues, investigators distinguish between the emic approach andthe etic approach. In the emic approach, the goal is to describe behavior inone culture or ethnic group in terms that are meaningful and important to thepeople in that culture or ethnic group, without regard to other cultures orethnic groups. In the etic approach, the goal is to describe behavior so thatgeneralizations can be made across cultures. If researchers construct aquestionnaire in an emic fashion, their concern is only that the questions aremeaningful to the particular culture or ethnic group being studied. If,however, the researchers construct a questionnaire in an etic fashion, theywant to include questions that reflect concepts familiar to all culturesinvolved. How might the emic and etic approaches bereflected in the study of family processes? In the emic approach, theresearchers might choose to focus only on middle-class White families, withoutregard for whether the information obtained in the study can be generalized oris appropriate for ethnic minority groups. In a subsequent study, theresearchers may decide to adopt an etic approach by studying not onlymiddle-class White families, but also lower-income White families, BlackAmerican families, Spanish American families, and Asian American families. Instudying ethnic minority families, the researchers would likely discover thatthe extended family is more frequently a support system in ethnic minorityfamilies than in White American families. If so, the emic approach would reveala different pattern of family interaction than would the etic approach,documenting that research with middle-class White families cannot always begeneralized to all ethnic groups. 36. According tothe first paragraph, researchers unfamiliar with the target cultures are inclinedto ______. A)be overcautious in constructing meaningful measures B)view them from their own cultural perspective C)guard against interference from their own culture D)accept readily what is alien to their own culture 37. What does the author say aboutthe emic approach and the etic approach? A)They have different research focuses in the study of ethnic issues. B)The former is biased while the latter is objective. C)The former concentrates on the study of culture while the latter on family issues. D)They are both heavily dependent on questionnaires in conducting surveys. 38. Comparedwith the etic approach, the emic approach is apparently more ______. A)culturally interactive B)culture-oriented C)culturally biased D)culture-specific 39. Theetic approach is concerned with ______. A)the general characteristics of minority families B)culture-related concepts of individual ethnic groups C)features shared by various cultures or ethnic groups D)the economic conditions of different types of families 40. Which of the following istrue of the ethnic minority families in the U.S. according to the passage? A)Their cultural patterns are usually more adaptable. B)Their cultural concepts are difficult to comprehend. C)They don’t interact with each other so much as White families. D)They have closer family ties than White families.
