阅读下列短文，然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Sometimes people call each other “scared-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream Although the cat doesn’t realize this, its body is getting ready for action If the danger continues, the animal will do one of two things It will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as it can
Something like this also happens to people When we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble Have you ever said something in anger—or hit somebody—and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn’t always wise to express your feelings freely
Does this mean that it’s smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense Physical illness can develop, and you can feel churned up inside It can actually be bad for your health
Feeling that you keep all bottled up inside, don’t just go away It’s as if bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard You might not be able to see them, but before long you’d smell them, if you opened the cupboard, chances are you’d see little fruit flies hovering all over them They’d be rotten
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist, but they’ll still be around And at last you’ll have to deal with them, just like those bananas
56 What does the word “emotions” in the second paragraph mean?
A acts B feelings C measurements D thinking
57 The best title for this article is __________
A Emotions Affect Our Bodies B What Happens to A Frightened Cat
C What Happens to An Excited Person D Feelings That People Have
58 The author wrote this article in order to __________
A tell us that it isn’t good to keep feelings inside
B give us some advice on how to express our feelings
C pare man with a scared cat and suggest mankind learn from it
D make us know that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely
B
A century ago in the United States, when an inpidual brought suit（起诉） against a pany, public opinion tended to protect that pany But perhaps this phenomenon was most striking in the case of the railroads Nearly half of all carelessness cases decided through 1896 involved railroads And the railroads usually won
Most of the cases were decided in sate courts, when the railroads had the climate of the times on their sides Government supported the railroad industry; the progress railroads represented was not to be slowed down by requiring them often to pay damages to those unlucky enough to be hurt working for them
Court decisions always t against railroad workers A Mr Farwell, an engineer, lost his right hand when a switchman carelessly ran his engine off the track The court reasoned that since Farwell had taken the job of an engineer voluntarily at good pay, he had accepted the risk Therefore the accident, though avoidable had the switchmen acted carefully, was a "pure accident" In effect a railroad could never be held responsible for injury to one employee caused by the mistake of another
In one case where a Pennsylvania Railroad worker had started a fire at a warehouse and the fire had spread several blocks, causing widespread damage, a jury found the pany responsible for all the damage But the court overturned the jury's decision because it argued that the railroad's carelessness was the immediate cause of damage only to the nearest buildings Beyond them the connection was too far-off to consider
As the century wore on, public feeling began to turn against the railroads -- against their economic and political power and high fares as well as against their coldness toward inpiduals
59 Which of the following is NOT true in Farwell's case?
A Farwell was injured because he carelessly ran his engine off the track
B Farwell would not have been injured if the switchman had been more careful
C The court argued that the victim had accepted the risk since he had willingly taken his job
D The court decided that the railroad should not be held responsible
60 What must have happened after the fire case was settled in court?
A The railroad pensated（赔偿）for the damage to the immediate buildings
B The railroad pensated for all the damage by the fire
C The railroad paid nothing for the damaged building
D The railroad worker paid for the property damage himself
61 The following aroused public anger EXCEPT _____
A political power B high fares C economic loss D indifference
62 What does the passage mainly discuss?
A Railroad oppressing inpiduals in the US B History of the US railroads
C Railroad workers' working rights D Law cases concerning the railroads
C

It’s no secret that many children would be healthier and happier with adoptive parents than with the parents that nature dealt them That’s especially true of children who remain in abusive homes because the law blindly favors biological parents It's also true of children who suffer for years in foster homes because of parents who can't or won't care for them but refuse to give up custody rights
Fourteen-year-old Kimberly Mays fits neither description, but her recent court victory could eventually help children who do Kimberly has been the object of an angry custody battle between the man who raised her and her biological parents, with whom she has never lived A Florida judge ruled that the teenager can remain with the only father she's ever known and that her biological parents have “no legal right” on her
The ruling, though it may yet be reversed , sets aside the principle that biology is the primary determinant of parentage That's an important development, though not so much in time
Shortly after birth in December 1978, Kimberly Mays and another infant were mistakenly switched and sent home with the wrong parents Kimberly’s biological parents, Ernest and Regina Twigg, received a child who died of a heart disease in 1988 Medical tests showed that the child wasn’t the Twiggs’ own daughter, but Kim only was, thus causing a custody battle with Robert Mays In 1989, the two families agreed that Mr Mays would continue to have custody with the Twiggs getting visiting rights Those rights were ended when Mr Mays decided that Kimberly was being harmed
The decision to leave Kimberly with Mr Mays caused people to debate her suit But the judge made clear that Kimberly did have rights to make a decision on her own behalf Thus he made clear that she was more than just possession to be handled as adults saw fit
Certainly, the biological link between parent and child is important But biological parents aren’t always preferable to adoptive ones, and biological parentage does not have an plete ownership that cancels all the rights of children
67 What was first of all considered in the Florida judge’s ruling?
A The biological link B The child’s benefits
C The true practice D The parents’ feelings
68 We can learn from the Kimberly case that _______
A children are more than just personal possessions of their parents
B the biological link between parent and child should be paid more attention to
C foster homes bring children more pain and suffering than care
D biological parents shouldn't demand of custody rights after their child is adopted
69 The Twiggs demanded of custody rights to Kimberly because _______
A they found her unhappy in Mr Mays’ custody B they regarded her as their property
C they were her biological parents D they felt very sorry about their past mistake
70 Kimberly had been given to Mr Mays _______
A by plete accident B at his request
C out of the hospital’s mistakes D for better care
E
It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions , the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory
Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use It includes not only “remembering” things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sensed something suspicious in the grain pile Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat
Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines
puters, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use It is interesting to pare the memory-storage capacity of a puter with that of a human being The instantaccess memory of a large puter may hold up to 100000 “words” ready for instant use An average US ? teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100000 words of English However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight
The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and binations of words
71 According to the passage, memory is considered to be ________
A the basis for decision making and problem solving
B an ability to store experiences for future use
C an intelligence typically possessed by human beings
D the data mainly consisting of words and binations of words
72 The parison made between the memory capacity of a large puter and that of a human being shows that ________
A the puter’ s memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager’s
B the puter’ s memory capacity is much better than an adult human being’s
C the puter’ s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenager’s
D the memory capacity of a teenager’s should be full made use of
73 The whole passage implies that_________
A only human beings have problem-solving intelligence
B a person’s memory is different from a puter’s in every respect
C animals are able to solve only very simple problems
D animals solve problems by instincts and intelligence
74 The phrase “in terms of” in the last sentence can best be replaced by_______
A changing into B expressed by C making up D made up of
75 Which of the following is the topic of the passage?
A What life would be like without memory
B Memory is of plete importance to life
C How a person’ s memory is different from an animal’s or a puter’s
D What is contained in memory 第二卷（共35分）

Sometimes people call each other “scared-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression? When a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream Although the cat doesn’t realize this, its body is getting ready for action If the danger continues, the animal will do one of two things It will defend itself, or it will run away as fast as it can
Something like this also happens to people When we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes Our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react We, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run
Human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face If we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble Have you ever said something in anger—or hit somebody—and regretted it later? Have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely, or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? It isn’t always wise to express your feelings freely
Does this mean that it’s smarter always to hide our feelings? No! If you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense Physical illness can develop, and you can feel churned up inside It can actually be bad for your health
Feeling that you keep all bottled up inside, don’t just go away It’s as if bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard You might not be able to see them, but before long you’d smell them, if you opened the cupboard, chances are you’d see little fruit flies hovering all over them They’d be rotten
You can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard You can hide them and you can pretend they don’t exist, but they’ll still be around And at last you’ll have to deal with them, just like those bananas
56 What does the word “emotions” in the second paragraph mean?
A acts B feelings C measurements D thinking
57 The best title for this article is __________
A Emotions Affect Our Bodies B What Happens to A Frightened Cat
C What Happens to An Excited Person D Feelings That People Have
58 The author wrote this article in order to __________
A tell us that it isn’t good to keep feelings inside
B give us some advice on how to express our feelings
C pare man with a scared cat and suggest mankind learn from it
D make us know that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely
B
A century ago in the United States, when an inpidual brought suit（起诉） against a pany, public opinion tended to protect that pany But perhaps this phenomenon was most striking in the case of the railroads Nearly half of all carelessness cases decided through 1896 involved railroads And the railroads usually won
Most of the cases were decided in sate courts, when the railroads had the climate of the times on their sides Government supported the railroad industry; the progress railroads represented was not to be slowed down by requiring them often to pay damages to those unlucky enough to be hurt working for them
Court decisions always t against railroad workers A Mr Farwell, an engineer, lost his right hand when a switchman carelessly ran his engine off the track The court reasoned that since Farwell had taken the job of an engineer voluntarily at good pay, he had accepted the risk Therefore the accident, though avoidable had the switchmen acted carefully, was a "pure accident" In effect a railroad could never be held responsible for injury to one employee caused by the mistake of another
In one case where a Pennsylvania Railroad worker had started a fire at a warehouse and the fire had spread several blocks, causing widespread damage, a jury found the pany responsible for all the damage But the court overturned the jury's decision because it argued that the railroad's carelessness was the immediate cause of damage only to the nearest buildings Beyond them the connection was too far-off to consider
As the century wore on, public feeling began to turn against the railroads -- against their economic and political power and high fares as well as against their coldness toward inpiduals
59 Which of the following is NOT true in Farwell's case?
A Farwell was injured because he carelessly ran his engine off the track
B Farwell would not have been injured if the switchman had been more careful
C The court argued that the victim had accepted the risk since he had willingly taken his job
D The court decided that the railroad should not be held responsible
60 What must have happened after the fire case was settled in court?
A The railroad pensated（赔偿）for the damage to the immediate buildings
B The railroad pensated for all the damage by the fire
C The railroad paid nothing for the damaged building
D The railroad worker paid for the property damage himself
61 The following aroused public anger EXCEPT _____
A political power B high fares C economic loss D indifference
62 What does the passage mainly discuss?
A Railroad oppressing inpiduals in the US B History of the US railroads
C Railroad workers' working rights D Law cases concerning the railroads
C

It’s no secret that many children would be healthier and happier with adoptive parents than with the parents that nature dealt them That’s especially true of children who remain in abusive homes because the law blindly favors biological parents It's also true of children who suffer for years in foster homes because of parents who can't or won't care for them but refuse to give up custody rights
Fourteen-year-old Kimberly Mays fits neither description, but her recent court victory could eventually help children who do Kimberly has been the object of an angry custody battle between the man who raised her and her biological parents, with whom she has never lived A Florida judge ruled that the teenager can remain with the only father she's ever known and that her biological parents have “no legal right” on her
The ruling, though it may yet be reversed , sets aside the principle that biology is the primary determinant of parentage That's an important development, though not so much in time
Shortly after birth in December 1978, Kimberly Mays and another infant were mistakenly switched and sent home with the wrong parents Kimberly’s biological parents, Ernest and Regina Twigg, received a child who died of a heart disease in 1988 Medical tests showed that the child wasn’t the Twiggs’ own daughter, but Kim only was, thus causing a custody battle with Robert Mays In 1989, the two families agreed that Mr Mays would continue to have custody with the Twiggs getting visiting rights Those rights were ended when Mr Mays decided that Kimberly was being harmed
The decision to leave Kimberly with Mr Mays caused people to debate her suit But the judge made clear that Kimberly did have rights to make a decision on her own behalf Thus he made clear that she was more than just possession to be handled as adults saw fit
Certainly, the biological link between parent and child is important But biological parents aren’t always preferable to adoptive ones, and biological parentage does not have an plete ownership that cancels all the rights of children
67 What was first of all considered in the Florida judge’s ruling?
A The biological link B The child’s benefits
C The true practice D The parents’ feelings
68 We can learn from the Kimberly case that _______
A children are more than just personal possessions of their parents
B the biological link between parent and child should be paid more attention to
C foster homes bring children more pain and suffering than care
D biological parents shouldn't demand of custody rights after their child is adopted
69 The Twiggs demanded of custody rights to Kimberly because _______
A they found her unhappy in Mr Mays’ custody B they regarded her as their property
C they were her biological parents D they felt very sorry about their past mistake
70 Kimberly had been given to Mr Mays _______
A by plete accident B at his request
C out of the hospital’s mistakes D for better care
E
It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions , the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory
Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use It includes not only “remembering” things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sensed something suspicious in the grain pile Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat
Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines
puters, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use It is interesting to pare the memory-storage capacity of a puter with that of a human being The instantaccess memory of a large puter may hold up to 100000 “words” ready for instant use An average US ? teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100000 words of English However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight
The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and binations of words
71 According to the passage, memory is considered to be ________
A the basis for decision making and problem solving
B an ability to store experiences for future use
C an intelligence typically possessed by human beings
D the data mainly consisting of words and binations of words
72 The parison made between the memory capacity of a large puter and that of a human being shows that ________
A the puter’ s memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager’s
B the puter’ s memory capacity is much better than an adult human being’s
C the puter’ s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenager’s
D the memory capacity of a teenager’s should be full made use of
73 The whole passage implies that_________
A only human beings have problem-solving intelligence
B a person’s memory is different from a puter’s in every respect
C animals are able to solve only very simple problems
D animals solve problems by instincts and intelligence
74 The phrase “in terms of” in the last sentence can best be replaced by_______
A changing into B expressed by C making up D made up of
75 Which of the following is the topic of the passage?
A What life would be like without memory
B Memory is of plete importance to life
C How a person’ s memory is different from an animal’s or a puter’s
D What is contained in memory 第二卷（共35分）

Recently the students in our class had a discussion about whether our parents should acpany us studying at school
We do have different opinions on this matter Most of us think our parents should not acpany us studying at school since it make us fall into the habit of dependence, so that we won’t form the good habit of studying What’s more, it is harmful for us to form the habit of controlling ourselves At the same time it affects our parents’ work, studies and rest
While about 30%of my classmates think it necessary for our parents to acpany us studying at school Acpanying us studying at school can let us have more time to spare for our studies Besides, we shall be more healthy for their cooking On the other hand our parents can help us set up our aim, urge us to finish our task, encourage us to overe difficulties and get us into the good habit of studying
In my opinion,……
