How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ballgame, come back three and a half hours later, and theyre still sitting on the sofa, talking?What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about?Betty shrugs. Talk? Were friends.Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. No matter what their age, their job, their sex, the results were completely clear. Women have more friendships than men, and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is “marked and unmistakable”.More than two-thirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman. Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend, and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend, most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress（情感危机）. “Most women,” says Rubin, “identified at least one, usually more, trusted friends to whom they could turn in a troubled moment, and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives”.“In general,” writes Rubin in her new book, “womens friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but mens relationships are marked by shared activities.” For the most part, Rubin says , interactions (交往) between men are emotionally controlleda good fit with the social requirements of “manly behavior”.“Even when a man is said to be a best friend,” Rubin writes, “the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a womans closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasnt unusual to hear a man say he didnt know his friends marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa.”6. What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that B . A. he is treated as an outsider rather than a husband B. women have so much to share C. women show little interest in ballgames D. his wife is difficult to talk to7. Rubins study shows that for emotional support a married woman is more likely to turn to B . A. a male friend B. a female friend C. her parents D. her husband 8. According to the text, which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society? DA. Ending his marriage without good reason.B. Spending too much time with his friends. C.

Women depend on others in making decisions.10. The research done by psychologist Rubin centers on C . A. happy and successful marriage B. friendships of men and women C. emotional problems in marriage D. interactions between men and womenPassage2There is no doubt that man is a member of the animal kingdom. Anyone who has thought about this fact seriously must have wondered how it has come about that man has achieved a position so supreme（最高的） among the myriad(无数的) kinds of animal life. Two characteristics of man, in comparison with all other animals, that stand out above all others are the creation and use of tools and the development and use of language. Since no other animals have achieved these abilities, it must be assumed that mans evolutionary development led to his capacity to create and use tools and to devise and use language. Once these abilities and practices evolved, they probably became driving forces in the further evolution of man. Those members of the species who become most proficient(精通的) in the fabrication of tools and in the command of language and thought would tend to survive and maintain their kind for good, at the expense of those of lesser ability.11.Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of the passage? AA. Tools and language are either the effects or the causes of human evolution.B. No other animals have achieved human abilities.C. Among the animals, only man is able to use tools and language.D. Man owns his capacity to making use of tools and language.12.“Animal kingdom” in the passage refers to C . A. the place where all animals liveB. the animal societyC. all kinds of animals, including manD. the forest with animals13.One important condition for mans evolution is D .A. the animal kingdomB. a supreme positionC. the myriad kindsD. his natural capacity14.The phrase “come about” in the passage is likely to mean _C_.A. happenedB. appearedC. arrivedD. succeeded15.The last sentence suggests that D .A. those of lesser ability would be very expensiveB. in order to survive, man has to sacrifice some other animalsC. those who become proficient in making tools can speak wellD. language and thought could be acquired by man第三部分：词汇与结构（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分）16.
