Part IIReading Comprehension  (35 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.

Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
    The importance and focus of the interview in the work of the print and broadcast journalist is reflected in several books that have been written on the topic. Most of these books, as well as several chapters, mainly in, but not limited to, journalism and broadcasting handbooks and reporting texts, stress the “how to” aspects of journalistic interviewing rather than the conceptual aspects of the interview, its context, and implications. Much of the “how to” material is based on personal experiences and general impressions. As we know, in journalism as in other fields, much can be learned from the systematic study of professional practice. Such study brings together evidence from which broad generalized principles can be developed.
    There is, as has been suggested, a growing body of research literature in journalism and broadcasting, but very little significant attention has been devoted to the study of the interview itself. On the other hand, many general tests as well as numerous research articles on interviewing in fields other than journalism have been written. Many of these books and articles present the theoretical and empirical (经验主义的) aspects of the interview as well as the training of the interviewers. Unhappily, this plentiful general literature about interviewing pays little attention to the journalistic interview. The fact that the general literature on interviewing does not deal with the journalistic interview seems to be surprising for two reasons. First, it seems likely that most people in modern Western societies are more familiar, at least in a positive manner, with journalistic interviewing than with any other form of interviewing. Most of us are probably somewhat familiar with the clinical（临床的）interview, such as that conducted by physicians and psychologists. In these situations the professional person or interviewer is interested in getting information necessary for the diagnosis and treatment of the person seeking help. Another familiar situation is the job interview. However, very few of us have actually been interviewed personally by the mass media, particularly by television. And yet, we have a vivid acquaintance with the journalistic interview by virtue of our roles as readers, listeners, and viewers. Even so, true understanding of the journalistic interview, especially television interviews, requires thoughtful analysis and even study, as this book indicates.

21. The passage is most likely to be a ________ in style and tone.
   A) journalistic interview                  B) preface to a book
   C) newspaper article                       D) book report
22. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
   A) Most westerners have been interviewed face to face by the media.
   B) Most books on interview have paid little attention to the training of the interviewers.
   C) General principles are based on particular evidence collected through systematic study.
   D) The “how to” aspect of a book on interview presents the theoretical idea.
23. The expression “by virtue of” in the last but one sentence can best be replaced by ________ .
   A) by means of        B) because of
   C) in case of D) with the help of
24. Most books on interviewing are not concerned about journalistic kind because ________ .
   A) most people like to read broadcasting interviews
   B) most western people are seemingly familiar with journalistic interviews
   C) journalistic interviews are too professional for most people
   D) texts about journalistic interview don’t deal with the “how to” aspects
25. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an occasion of interview?
   A) Going to see a doctor.  B) Reading an article.
   C) Negotiating with a client.               D) Looking for a job.

Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
    A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain data both on resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.
    If an economist was asked which of three groups borrow most, people with rising incomes, stable incomes, or declining incomes--he would probably answer: those with declining incomes. Actually, in the years 1947--1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions about earning and spending are not always reliable. Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will hasten to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The typical attitude was expressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices, "In a few months, " she said, "we"ll have to pay more for meat and milk; we"ll have less to spend on other things." Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. Furthermore, the rise in prices that has already taken place may be resented and buyer"s resistance may be evoked. This is shown by the following typical comment: "I just don"t pay these prices; they are too high."
   The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America. Investigations conducted at the same time in Great Britain, however, yielded results that were more in agreement with traditional assumptions about saving and spending patterns. The condition most conducive(有助于) to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology.

26. It can be inferred from the passage that if one wants to predict the way consumers will spend their money, he should ________.
   A) rely on traditional assumptions about earning and spending
   B) try to encourage or discourage consumers to spend money
   C) carry our investigations on consumer behavior and obtain data on consumers" incomes and money spending motives
   D) do researches in consumer psychology in a laboratory
27. According to Paragraph 2, research surveys have proved that ________.
   A) price increases always stimulate people to hasten to buy things
   B) rising prices may make people put off their purchase of certain things
   C) women are more sensitive to the rising in prices than men
   D) the expectations of price increases often make buyers feel angry
28. The results of the investigations on consumer psychology carried out in America were ________ those of the investigations made at the same time in Great Britain.
   A) somewhat different from
   B) exactly the same as
   C) much better than
   D) not as good as
29. From the results of the surveys, the writer of this article ________.
   A) concludes that the saving and spending patterns in Great Britain are better than those in America.
   B) concludes that the consumers always expect prices to remain stable
   C) concludes that maintaining stable prices is a correct business policy
   D) does not draw any conclusion
30. Which of the following statements is always TRUE according to the surveys mentioned in the passage?
   A) Consumers will put off buying things if they expect prices to decrease.
   B) Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect prices to increase.
   C) The price condition has an influence on consumer behavior.
   D) Traditional assumptions about earning and spending are reliable.

Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
    About six years ago I was eating lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table, I couldn"t help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point, the woman asked: "So, how have you been?" And the boy―who could not have been more than seven or eight years old―replied, "Frankly, I"ve been feeling a little depressed lately.""
    This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didn"t find out we were "depressed" until we were in high school.
    The evidence of a change in children has increased steadily in recent years. Children don"t seem childlike any more. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.
    Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no longer exists. Why?
    Human development is based not only on innate (天生的) biological states, but also on patterns of access to social knowledge. Movement from one social root to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new status. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and in stages: traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.
    In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation (揭示) machine has been installed in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information, and indiscriminately (不加区分地), to all viewers alike, no matter they are children or adults. Unable to resist the temptation, many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more vivid moving pictures.
    Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information to which children have access. Reading and writing involve a complex code of symbols that must be memorized and practiced. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.

31.  According to the author, feeling depressed is ________.
   A) a sure sign of a psychological problem in a child
   B) something hardly to be expected in a young child
   C) an inevitable sign of children"s mental development
   D) a mental scale present in all humans, including children
32.  Traditionally, a child is supposed to learn about the adult world ________.
   A) through contact with society    C) naturally and by biological instinct
   B) gradually and under guidance    D)through exposure to social information
33.  The phenomenon that today"s children seem adult-like is attributed by the author to _    .
   A) the widespread influence of television
   B) the poor arrangement of teaching content
   C) the fast pace of human intellectual development
   D) the constantly rising standard of living
34.  Why is the author in favor of communication through print for children?
   A) It enables children to gain more social information.
   B) It develops children"s interest in reading and writing.
   C) It helps children to memorize and practice more.
   D) It can control what children are to learn.
35.  What does the author think of the change in today"s children?
   A) He feels amused by their premature behavior.
   B) He thinks it is a phenomenon worthy of note.
   C) He considers it a positive development.
   D) He seems to be upset about it.

Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.
    "Opinion" is a word that is used carelessly today. It is used to refer to matters of taste, belief, and judgment. This casual use would probably cause little confusion if people didn"t attach too much importance to opinion. Unfortunately, most do attach great importance to it. "I have as much right to my opinion as you to yours, "" and ""Everyone"s entitled to his opinion, "" are common expressions. In fact, anyone who would challenge another"s opinion is likely to be branded intolerant.
    Is that label accurate? Is it intolerant to challenge another"s opinion? It depends on what definition of opinion you have in mind. For example, you may ask a friend ""What do you think of the new Ford cars?" And he may reply, "In my opinion, they"re ugly." In this case, it would not only be intolerant to challenge his statement, but foolish. For it"s obvious that by opinion he means his personal preference, a matter of taste. And as the old saying goes, ""It"s pointless to argue about matters of taste."
    But consider this very different use of the term, a newspaper reports that the Supreme Court has delivered its opinion in a controversial case. Obviously the justices did not shake their personal preferences, their mere likes and dislikes. They stated their considered judgment, painstakingly arrived at after thorough inquiry and deliberation.
    Most of what is referred to as opinion falls somewhere between these two extremes. It is not an expression of taste. Nor is it careful judgment. Yet it may contain elements of both. It is a view or belief more or less casually arrived at, with or without examining the evidence.
    Is everyone entitled to his opinion? Of course, this is not only permitted, but guaranteed. We are free to act on our opinions only so long as, in doing so, we do not harm others.
36. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the author?
   A) Everyone has a right to hold his own opinion.
   B) Free expression of opinions often leads to confusion.
   C) Most people tend to be careless in forming their opinions.
   D) Casual use of the word "opinion" often brings about quarrels.
37. According to the author, who of the following would be labeled as intolerant?
   A) Someone who turns a deaf ear to others" opinions.
   B) Someone who can"t put up with others" tastes.
   C) Someone who values only their own opinions.
   D) Someone whose opinion harm other people.
38. The new Ford cars are cited as an example to show that ________.
   A) it is foolish to criticize a famous brand
   B) one should not always agree to others" opinions
   C) personal tastes are not something to be challenged
   D) it is unwise to express one"s likes and dislikes in public
39. Considered judgment is different from personal preference in that ________.
   A) it is stated by judges in the court
   B) it reflects public likes and dislikes
   C) it is a result of a lot of controversy
   D) it is based on careful thought
40. As indicate, being free to act on one"s opinion ________.
   A) means that one can ignore other people"s criticism
   B) means that one can impose his preferences on others
   C) doesn"t mean that one has the right to do things at will
   D) doesn"t mean that one has the right to charge others without evidence

    Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative person who is __71   only among those with whom he is acquainted.

    Serous-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or sleeping in a corner; hardly anybody talks, since to do so would be considered quite offensive.  74  , there is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which,  75   broken, makes the offender immediately the object of   76  .

The man in the street seems to be as accurate---or as inaccurate---as the weathermen in his   84   .
    Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references   85   weather that the British makes to each other in the course of a single day. Very often conversational greetings are   86    by comments on the weather. “Nice day, isn’t it ?” “Beautiful!” may well be heard instead of “Good morning, how are you ?” 87   the foreigner may consider this exaggerated and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his advantage.   88    he wants to start a conversation with a British but is   89    to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a safe subject which will   90   an answer from even the most reserved of the British.
