Each passage is followed by 4 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 your answer on the Answer Sheet. Questions 41 to 44 are based on the following passage: In the past, American families tended to be quite large. Parents raising five or more children were common. Over the years, the size of the family has decreased. One reason for this is an increase in the cost of living. On the average, children attend schools for more years than they used to, making them financially dependent on their families longer. Moreover, children nowadays are better dressed and have more money to spend on entertainment. The parents usually take the responsibility for all the expenses. Meanwhile, families are less close than they used to be. More and more American mothers work away from home. The break up of the family occurs when the parents divorce, A lot of children in the U. S. live part of their young lives with only one parent. Broken families usually result in problems for children and parents alike. Children blame themselves when their parents separate. They grow up feeling unsettled as they are moved back and forth between parents. Usually one parent is responsible for raising the children. These single parents must care for the childrens emotional and psychological needs while also supporting them financially. This is very demanding and leaves very little time for the parents own personal interests. Single parents often marry other single parents. In this type of family, unrelated children are forced to develop brother or sister relationship. The situations of many American families today are not good. However, recent signs indicate that things are getting better. The divorce rate is declining. The rate of childbirth is rising. Perhaps Americans have learned how important families are. 在过去美国家庭趋向于抚养五个或更多孩子的大家庭是普遍的。过了些年后，家庭的大小在减小。其中一个原因就是生活成本的增加。平均地孩子们在学校学习的时间也比过去多，这使得他们在经济上信赖家庭的时间更长。而且今年的孩子穿得更好，在娱乐上花的钱也更多。父母通常负责所有这些花销。同时家庭成员也不象过去那样联系紧密了。有越来越多的美国母亲工作在离家远的地方。当父母离婚时家庭也就破裂了，很多美国孩子在单亲家庭中渡过他们部分的年轻时光。破裂的家庭通常会给孩子以及父母带来一些问题。孩子会责怪他们的父母当他们分开的时候。他们在不稳定的感觉中成长好象他们在父母之间来回迁移。通常父母的一方负责抚养孩子，他或她在给孩子经济支持的时候也必须关心孩子的感觉及心理上的需求。这个就要求父母一方留给自己兴趣的时间就很少。单亲父母通常会跟另一个单亲父母结婚，在这种家庭里，没有关系的孩子被迫变成兄弟姐妹关系。今天很多美国家庭的情况都不太好。然后，最近的一些迹象表明事情在向好的方向发展，离婚率在下降，出生率在上升，也许美国人已经明白了家庭的重要性了。41. To parents who take the responsibility for childrens expenses, the cost of living increases because 对负责孩子花销的父母来说，生活成本在增加是因为： A. children attend school for more years B. children are better dressed C. children spend more money on entertainment D. all of the above 42. What problems would broken families bring to both children and parents? 破碎的家庭会给孩子和父母带来什么样的问题？ A. Children grow up feeling unsettled and parents didnt pay much attention to children. B. Children grow up feeling free and one parent is responsible for raising the children. C. Children are moved back and forth between parents and the single parent is busy working to make money to support himself/herself. D. Children grow up feeling unsettled, and the parents have little time for his/her own interests because one parent is too busy taking care of children. 43. According to the author, the situations of American families in the future may _ 如作者言，美国家庭的情况在将来会。 A. become worse B. remain the same C. get better D. keep unchanged 44. The title of the article might be _ 文章的题目可能是。 A. American Children B. American Families C. American Mother D. American Parents Questions 45 to 48 are based on the following passage: When I was studying at Yale, some phenomena puzzled me greatly. I found that Chinese students or Asian students were very polite in class while American students often interrupted the professor, asking questions and dominating the discussion. The Chinese students were not as aggressive as American students. I was impressed by the role of the professor in the seminar (讨论会). The professor didnt act as an authority, giving final conclusions, but as a researcher looking for answers to questions together with the students. One linguistic (语言的) feature of his interacting with his students was that he used many modal (情态的) verbs-far more than I did in Beiwai. When answering questions, he usually said, This is my personal opinion and it could be wrong. or You could be right, but you might find this point of view also interesting. In China, authorities are always supposed to give wise decisions and correct directions. Therefore, students always expect the professor to give an answer to the question, i still remember how frustrated they were when foreign teachers did not provide such an answer. Their expectations from authorities are much higher than that of American students. Once the Chinese students got the answer, they were sure about it. Education in China is valued for united thinking. I remember American teachers who taught in our university complaining about the fact that Chinese students uniformly expressed the same idea in their English composition. The examinations in America usually do not test a students ability to memorize the material but his ability to analyze and solve problems. Education in America is valued not only as a means to obtain employment but as a process of enhancing critical thinking. 我在耶鲁学习的时候，一些现象使我很迷惑。我发现中国学生或亚洲学生在课堂上非常有礼貌，而美国学生却经常打断教授问一些问题或者主动发起讨论。中国学生就不象美国学生这样激进。教授在讨论会上的角色给我深刻的印象。教授不象个权威人士给出最后结论，只象个研究者一样同学生一起寻找问题的答案。一个他同学生互动的语言特点就是他会用很多情态动词比我在北外用的多多了。当回答问题的时候，他通常会说：“这是我的个人观点，有可能是错误的。”或者说：“你可能是对的，但是你会发现这个观点也很有趣。”在中国，权威人士通常要给出英明的决定和正常的指示，因此，学生们通常也希望教授给出问题的答案。我仍然记得当外国教师不提供答案的时候他们是多么失望。这些对权威者的期望比美国学生的要多很多。一旦中国学生得到了答案，他们就会对它确定不已。中国的教育认可大家要有一样的思想。我记得在我们大学教学的美国教师抱怨：中国学生在他们的英语作文里都一致地表达相同的观点。美国的测验通常不检查学生对一些内容的记忆能力，只检查他们对问题的分析以及解决能力。45. In the USA, when the students are in class, _ 在美国，当同学们在课堂上时，。 A. a Chinese student tends to be very active B. an American student likes to make trouble C. a Chinese student likes to puzzle the teacher D. an American student tends to be vigorous 46. A teacher in the USA prefers to _ when he answers questions. 美国教师更喜欢。当他问问题的时候。 A. be very sincere B. be very direct C. be very self confident D. be very indifferent 47. What is the opinion of the author concerning the difference of teaching methods between China and the USA? 作者关于中国和美国老师的教学方法的不同在哪里？ A. He thinks that Chinese teaching methods can make students learn more. B. He holds that the major purpose of Chinese teaching methods is to improve students remembrance. C. He thinks that American teaching is ability oriented. D. He holds that American teachers hate to give a test. 48. The author thinks that the relationship between the student and the teacher is _ 作者认为学生和老师间的关系应该是。 A. more intimate in China B. closer in China C. looser in USA D. more harmonious in USA Questions 49 to 52 are based on the following passage: With a tremendous roar from its rocket engine, the satellite is sent up into the sky. Minutes later, at an altitude of 300 miles, this tiny electronic moon begins to orbit about the earth. Its radio begins to transmit an astonishing amount of information about the satellites orbital path, the amount of radiation it detects, and the presence of meteorites. Information of all kinds races back to the earth. No human being could possibly copy down all these facts, much less remember and organize them. But an electronic computer can. The marvel of the machine age, the electronic computer has been in use only since 1946. It can do simple computations-add, subtract, multiply and divide-with lighting speed and perfect accuracy. Some computers can work 500,000 times faster than any person can. Once it is given a program - that is, a carefully worked out set of instructions devised by a technician trained in computer language - a computer can gather a wide range of information for many purposes. For the scientist it can get information from outer space or from the depth of the ocean. In business and industry the computer prepares factory inventories, keeps track of sales trends and production needs, mails dividend checks, and makes out company payrolls. It can keep bank accounts up to date and make out electric bills. If you are planning a trip by plane, the computer will find out what to take and what space is available. Not only can the computer gather facts, it can also store them as fast as they are gathered and can pour them out wheneve
