by a number of comprehension questions Read the passage and answer the questions Then mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage Imagine you are Alice stepping through the looking glass Suddenly everything is reversed Doorknobs are on the wrong side of doors The gearshift in your car is in the wrong place Twenty five million Americans wake up every day in just such an awkward situation They are the one in ten of us who are left handed and must face the world designed for the right handed majority Why we are left or right handed remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of science We know that nearly two out of three lefties are male and that left handedness runs in families According to one study almost half the offspring of two left handed parents will be left handed The Scots Irish family Kerr from the Gaelic word for left produced so many left handers that in 1470 the family built its castle s spiral stairways with a reverse twist to favor left handed swordsmen On the other hand heredity alone cannot explain lefties At least 84 percent of them are born of two right handed parents And in 12 percent of genetically identical twins one will be right handed the other left Perhaps the greatest puzzle of all is not why some people are left handed but rather why so few are So scientists are trying to discover the truth of the matter and they are beginning to gain insight into many ways left handed differ from right handed by considering how their brains work 1 How many of the Americans are left handers A 10 B 12 C 50 D 80 2 Among the left handers A few are men B most of them are women C half of them are men D two thirds are men 3 According to the passage which of the following is NOT true A Almost half of the children of two left handed parents will be left handed B At least 84 percent of left handers are born of two right handed parents C One in ten of Americans are left handed D In the majority of genetically identical twins one will be right handed the other left 4 In the third paragraph the word offspring means A relatives B sons C daughters D children 5 The reason why so few are left handed A has nothing to do with heredity B remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of science C has little to do with the working of their brains D is that left handers are mainly twins Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage Marketing in economics is that part of the process of production and exchange that is concerned with the flow of goods and services from producer to consumer In popular usage it is defined as the distribution and sale of goods the word DISTRIBUTION being understood in a broader sense than the technical economic one Marketing includes the activities of all those who are engaged in the transfer of goods from producer to consumer not only those who buy and sell directly wholesale and retail but also those who warehouse grade transport insure finance or otherwise have a hand in the process of transfer In a modern capitalist economy where all production is for a market such activities are of first importance it is estimated that more than 50 of the price paid by the final consumer is made up of the cost of marketing Where production is for direct use as in the subsistence farm the feudal manor 庄园 or the communal group there is little need for exchange of good because the division of labour is poorly developed and most people produce the same or similar goods Interregional exchange between disparate geographic areas depends on adequate means of transportation This before the development of area travel and navigation there was little change of the products of one region for those of another Where systems of transportation are well developed as in the Mediterranean in ancient times and throughout most of the world in modern times interregional trade has been substantial The village market of fair the itinerant 巡游的 merchant or peddle and the shop where customers could have such goods as shoes and furniture made to order were features of marketing up in rural Europe 6 There is little need for marketing in the place such as a subsistence farm because A the goods are used directly by its producer there B the division of labour is developed there C there are few consumers there D their production is distributed widely 7 According to the passage the activities of marketing in popular sense are involved in 南师专转本 大学英语 冲刺实战卷 教务电话 025 83598393 南师专转本 大学英语 冲刺实战卷 教务电话 025 83598393 大学英语 试题 第

good order C customers could hardly buy anything in their village D the itinerant merchant could sell similar goods in the region Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage In America the middle classes and even the well paid working class have pursued happiness according to the prescription of the Declaration of Independence But in recent years it has become more and more evident that this pursuit has led to a brave new world of consumer goods and services And as in Aldous Huxley s great novel of that name this world took over not just the body but the spirit of man Not only does the modern man buy material junk at the supermarket he buys spiritual junk from the movies and television those supermarkets of the soul Man is now happy by definition but whether this is the happiness which the rebels of 1776 had in mind is a moot 争论未决的 point It is certainly not the happiness sought by the rebels of 1960 s They consider it a form of consciousness too narrow to be dignified with the word human and so have initiated an era of significant if symbolic protest Although hairdos and clothing drugs and rock music are hardly in themselves worth a fight to death for the rebels of the 60 s they have become symbols of more than just a life style They have become symbols of another life the essential life of human beings the life of their deep affections and soaring thoughts 11 The author questions whether in America the pursuit of happiness A has led to a brave new world B was prescribed by the Declaration of Independence C has brought the happiness envisioned

disappointing results thus far C produced a finer braver kind of modern man D fulfilled the hope of the American rebels of 1776 13 In saying Man is now happy by definition Para 1 the author is suggesting that A man believes himself to be happy even though he may not be B consumer goods are the essential ingredients of happiness C both the body and the spirit of man are satisfied D real human happiness is probably unattainable 14 As examples of consumer goods that affect the spirit of man the author refers to A the supermarket B movies and television C material junk D services in the brave new world 15 The author regards the hairdos and clothing drugs and rock music of the rebels of the sixties as A perhaps worth a fight to death B fairly insignificant consumer goods C another form of material and spiritual junk D symbols of important human values Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage If it were only necessary to decide whether to teach elementary science to everyone on a mass basis or to find the gifted few and take them as far as they can go our task would be fairly simple The public school system however has no such choice for the jobs must be carried on at the same time Because we depend so heavily upon science and technology for our progress we must produce specialists in many fields Because we live in a democratic nation whose citizens make the policies for the nation large numbers of us must be educated to understand to support and when necessary to judge the work of experts The public school must educate both producers and users of scientific services In education there should be a good balance among the branches of knowledge that contribute to effective thinking and wise judgment Such balance is defeated by too much emphasis on any one field The question of balance involves not only the relation of the natural sciences the social sciences and the arts but also relative emphases among the natural sciences themselves Similarly we must have a balance between current and classical knowledge The attention of the public is continually drawn to new possibilities in scientific fields and the discovery of new knowledge these should not be allowed to turn our attention away from the sound established materials that form the basis of courses for beginners 16 According to the first paragraph the task of education is fairly complicated because A the current public school system is too complicated to be understood B the public school system has no choice of what to teach C it is difficult to decide whether elementary science should be taught in public schools 南师专转本 大学英语 冲刺实战卷 教务电话 025 83598393 南师专转本 大学英语 冲刺实战卷 教务电话 025 83598393 大学英语 试题 第 3 页 共 20 页 D the educators have to take care of both ordinary and gifted
