V. Reading Comprehension
(A)
As
the first report of the accident came in, Burton was sitting in his office on
the top floor of the building. Immediately, realizing the seriousness of the
whole incident, he moved to a ground floor room with a small waiting-room to
look into the matter himself, leaving his second-in-command to take over all
other cases.
He
interviewed the first witness almost at once, making sure that everything was
done that could be done to put him at his ease. However, the witness was
obviously nervous and Burton took great pains to go over what he said
thoroughly, choosing and checking each word carefully and taking the mans
statement down himself. The witness had called the police and hed waited until
the ambulances began to arrive, then when the first police car arrived on the
scene hed been asked to report to the station which was what he had done.
Burton
explained that regrettably it would be necessary for him to go to court because
of the serious nature of the disaster. More he could not say at present. Hed
be thankful if the man could keep in touch with the police.
When
he had gone, Burton put his head in his hands and considered before asking for
the next witness. The man couldnt be regarded as a hundred percent witness
because he had been behind a wall when the explosion occurred. But in spite of
his nerves, Burton had the impression that he was dependable, not afraid of
relating himself to it and a fairly exact observer.
When there would be other descriptions and
no doubt all these would be put into place and the whole picture would become
clear. He raised his head and press the bell on his desk.
Next witness please, he said.
56. Why did Burton move to the ground floor
when he heard the incident?
A. Because the ground
floor room had a small waiting-room.
B. Because it would be
easier for him to interview the witness.
C. Because he was not
pleased to work on the top floor.
D. Because it would be
easier for him to talk with the people.
57. How did the witness feel during the
interview?
A. Obviously somewhat
frightened. B. Excited at seeing the incident.
C. Anxious to give a
report to the police. D. Calm and unhurried.
58. The underlined part a hundred
percent witness most probably means ________.
A. a patient and
talkative person B. a well-informed witness
C. the only person who
was interviewed in the incident
D. a person who watched
the whole incident
(B)
The
ant is a rather complicated creature yet it is synonym (同义词)
for lack of individuality. All ants look alike and seem to act alike. Maybe if
we got to know them well enough we might find some traces of individuality
among them.
Individuality
becomes more obvious among animals and fish. If you keep a fish tank at home
you will notice that some fish are shy and slip under a stone at the first
approach of a person. Others stare you in the eye without blinking. Some are
greedy, others just take tiny bites at their food. Some are bullies, others are
friendly. After a while you will not mistake one fish for another even if they
are of the same species.
But
it is with man that individuality becomes most strongly marked. Not two human
faces are exactly the same in spite of the efforts of fashion to make them so.
The individuality extends to more than the physical appearance. Even with so
called identical twins there are difference of character and
temperament (气质) at a
deeper level. These differences are increased by the differing experiences of
people throughout life.
We value this individuality of human
beings. It gives rise to the attractive variety of our race.
59. The author implies that _________.
A. tha
ant must have a sort of individuality B. the ant is a kind
of germ
C. the
ant is complicated enough D. we want to find individuality
among ants
60. Bullies are __________.
A. those who use
strength or power to frighten or hurt others
B. enemies to those who
are friendly
C. those who can be
strong sports players
D. those who always
steal food from other fish
61. We can learn from the second paragraph
that ________.
A. fish are not greedy
B. fish are afraid of strangers
C. only pet fish show
individuality D. you may be able to tell one pet fish from
another
62. It seems that individuality of human
beings _________.
A. only brings aobut
trouble in the society
B. makes our society
more colorful and interesting
C. has nothing to do
with our human society
D. is the same as that
of fish and animals
(C)

In
October 1994 the United Nations brought a number of specialists on food to
Geneva, to discuss the problems of eating habits and food supplies of peoples
throughout the world. One problem that interested the specialissts particulary
was a form of illness, about which little was known, among the children in
Africa and Latin America. The World Health Organization (WHO) planned to study
this disease to determine the relationship between the eating habits of the
people and the disease.
Two
doctors were chosen the make the sutdy. They flew to Africa south of the Sahara
and during the next two months visited ten countries. They found those serious
diseases of poor eating, often mistaken for other diseases, existed in all
parts of Africa. The diseases were similar and could therefore all be named
kwashiorkor.
The
diseased children are usually from one to four years old. As the illness
progresses, the childs stomach becomes swollen (膨胀的)
by liquid collecting in the body. The skin changes color and may break out in
open sores (溃疡处). The
hair changes color and starts to fall out. The patient loses all interest in
his surroundings and even if food, and becomes so weak that he wants to lie
down all the time. Stomach liquids are no longer produced.
The
doctors reasoned that kwnshiorkor was found in the young children of this age
in many parts of Africa because of lack of milk or meat. Their mothers, after
stopping their breast-feeding, gave them foods full of starches (淀粉)
instead of greatly needed proteins. They found that the addition of milk to the
food of children suffering from kwashiorkor saved many lives.
The
unbelievable thing about kwashiorkor is that the very existence of the disease,
which has been killing thousands of children for centuries - was not even
recognized in Latin America as recently as ten years ago. The deaths of those
children were mistakenly listed as due to other diseases. It was the WHOs work
in Africa that led to the discovery of the problem in Central America.
67. From the passage we learn that
kwashiorkor is a disease caused by ________.
A. poor living
conditions B. lack of proteins
in food
C.
breast-feeding
D. lack of food
68. It is difficult to discover kwashiorkor
because ________.
A. it has no symptoms at
all B. it is hard to identify signs of it
C. it doesnt last long
enough for careful observation
D. it is hardly
distinguishable from other diseases
69. What is mentioned as a simple but
efficient way of curing this disease?
A. Taking a special
medicine. B. Avoiding any food containing starch.
C. Having more meat or
milk. D. Taking medicines full of proteins.
70. Whats the best title for the article?
A. Meat Is Daily
Necessity B. Bad Eating Habits
C. A New Form of Illness
in Africa and Latin America
D.
A Case of Eating Habits
