36 , ” he was advised, “and the well reveal (告诉，揭露) it to you.” having found the well, the seeker asked that most basic and important 37 . and from the depths came the answer: “go to the village crossroad, and there you shall find what you are seeking.”full of 38 the man ran to the crossroad to 39 only three rather uninteresting shops. one shop was selling pieces of metal, another sold 40 , and thin wires were for sale in the third. nothing and no one there seemed to 41 much to do with the revelation of truth.disappointed, the seeker returned to the well to demand an 42 , but he was told only: “you will 43 in the future.”deeply 48 , the truth seeker felt drawn towards the 49 . he looked at the fingers dancing over the strings. and then suddenly he let out a cry of joyful 50 : the sitar was made out of wires and pieces of metal and wood just like 51 he had once seen in the three stores.at last he understood the 52 of the well: we have already been given everything we need; our 53 is to assemble (聚集) and use them in the proper way. nothing is 54 so long as we recognize only fragments (碎片). but as soon as the pieces are put together, something new appears, whose nature we

formed第三部分：阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项（a，b，c和d）中，选出最佳选项aamericans are proud of their variety and individuality (个性), yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general. why are uniforms so popular in the united states? among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes. people have become conditioned to expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform. the television repairman who wears a uniform is likely to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. what easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity (职业身份) than to step out of uniform? uniforms also have many practical good points. they are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes. primary among the argument against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. when people look alike, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least. uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes. 56. what surprises us is that americans _. a. still judge a man by his clothes b. think highly of uniforms c. less prefer wearing civilian clothes d. respect a lift operator in uniform 57. people are likely to think that a man in uniform _. a. suggests quality work b. shows his social position c. appears to he more practical d. looks more fresh and attractive 58. those who are against uniforms believe that people wearing uniforms _. a. are usually helpful b. have little freedom c. lose personal character d. enjoy greater popularity 59. it can be concluded from the passage that _. a. people generally trust a person in uniform b. people enjoy wearing comfortable uniform c. the cost of the uniform is acceptable to people d. people wear uniforms to show their professions bonce there was an 11-year-old boy who went fishing with his father in the middle of a new hampshire lake. on the day before bass (巴斯鱼) season opened, they were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. then the boy tied on a small silver lure (鱼饵) and put it into the lake. suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure. his father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. it was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.the boy and his father looked at the big fish. the father lit a match and looked at his watch. it was 10 pm two hours before the season opened. he looked at the fish, then at the boy. “youll have to put it back, son,” he said. “dad!” cried the boy, “there will be other fish,” said his father. “not as big as this one,” cried the boy. he looked around the lake. no other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. he looked again at his father.even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his fathers voice that the decision couldnt be changed. he threw the huge bass into the black water. the big fish disappeared. the boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.that was 34 years ago. today the boy is successful architect in new york city. he often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.and he was right. he has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. but he does see that same fish again and again every time he has an ethical (伦理的，道德的) decision to make. for, as his father had taught him, ethics are simple matters of right and wrong. it is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.60. what happened when the big fish turned out to be a bass?a. the boy and his father discussed what to do with the big fish.b. the boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.c. the father lit a match in order to check the time.d. they worried other fishermen might discover what they had done.61. from the text we know that the father _.a. didnt love his son b. always disagreed with his sonc. disliked the huge fish d. was firm and stubborn62. the successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _.a. they might catch a big fish there b. he was taught a moral lesson therec. it was a most popular fishing spot d. their children enjoyed fishing there63. what does the story imply?a. it is easy to say something, but difficult to do.b. an ethical decision is always easy to make.c. its hard to tell right from wrong sometimesd. fishing can help one to make right decisions.cmeeting people from another culture can be difficult. from the beginning , people may send the wrong signal. or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. for example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time in “small talk”, usually over a glass of tea , before they do any job . in many european countrieslike the uk or francepeople find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. i once made a speech in thailand. i had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. the people present just stared at me and smiled. after getting to know their ways better, i realized that they thought i was talking too much. in my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.even within northern europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. certainly, english and german cultures share similar values; however, germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. we think that they are rude. in fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.people from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. however, if we can understand them better, a multicultural environment（多元文化环境）will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.64in some countries, eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to .adevelop closer relations bshare the same culturecget to know each other dkeep each other company65the author mentions his experience in thailand to show that .athe english prefer to make long speechesbtoo many words are of no usecpeople from thailand are quiet and shy by naturedeven talk and silence can be culturally different daccording to the united states government, people are classified as homeless if they have no place to stay and no expectation of finding a place for the next thirty daysalthough technically accurate, that is an impersonal assessment of an enormous and very human problemthe homeless population represents all of us americansit includes men and women, the elderly, children, and infantsits members are from all ethnic groupswhat they have in common is povertycurrently in the u.s., thirty-nine million people live in povertywhen money is really tight, paying the rent or buying food often becomes a choicegovernment assistance in the form of food stamps does help but, as one homeless man explains, you cant pay the rent with food stampswith no money for rent, the streets and homeless shelters become the alternativealthough men constitute the largest group within the homeless population, homeless women with children are rapidly joining themin fact, one quarter of the homeless people in the usare teenagers and young childrenpeople may become homeless for numerous reasonshowever, there are certain factors that many of these individuals have in commonthey include a lack of adequate education and job skillsa majority of the teenagers and adults have not completed high schoolthe abuse of alcohol and drugs is also a common factorone third of the adult homeless population abuses alcohol, while one quarter of the same group uses drugssome members of this population suffer mental health problemswithin the past several years many institutions for the mentally ill have been closed and their patients sent “home”unfortunately, a number of those people have no home to go to and they are unable to adequately look after themselvesjob loss in todays economy has also become a real factor in the loss of peoples homesthe breakup of families through abandonment and divorce are also contributing factors, parti
