21、rehension (30%)Directions: Read the following passages and then do the exercises that follow.Passage OneFlags of the United StatesThe basic flag of the United States is one of the world s oldest national flags. Only thebasic flags of Austria, Denmark, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Swit

22、zerland are older.During the discovery and settlement of what is now the United States, the flags of various European nations were flown over the land, as symbols of possession. Later, in the Colonial and Revolutionary War periods, flags representing famous persons, places, and events were flown in

23、the American Colonies.The first official flag of the United States was created by Congress on June 14, 1777.It consisted of 13 alternate red and white stripes and 13 white stars in a field of blue, representing the 13 colonies that had declared their independence in 1776. Congress adopted a new flag

24、 of 15 stars and 15 stripes in 1795, to give representation to the two new states admitted into the Union, Vermont and Kentucky.By 1817, there were 20 states in the Union, and it became apparent that adding one stripe for each new state would destroy the shape of the flag. As a result, Congress in 1

25、818 restored the original design of 13 stripes and provided that each state was to be represented by one star. In 1912 President William H. Taft made the first official provision for the arrangement of the stars. He ordered that there be six even rows of eight stars each. Previously the arrangement

26、of the stars had been left to the flag- maker s fancy.The evolution of the Stars and Stripes reflects the growth of the United States. After the admission of Hawaii into the Union in 1959, the flag was officially changed for the 26th time since its creation.There are many government flags flown in t

27、he United States in addition to the national flag. Among them are the president s a- pnrde svidcent s flags and those of the federaldepartments and some federal agencies. Each state in the Union has an official flag. The United States Navy uses special flags for signaling.1. The basic flag of the Un

28、ited States is .A) the oldest national flag in the worldB) as old as the basic flags of some European nationsC) the most beautiful flag in the WestD) one of the world s oldest flags2. Before the War of Independence the flags of various European nations flown over the land were symbols of .A) self-ru

29、leB) occupationC) peace and friendshipD) independence3. The first official flag of the United States was adopted .A) before the Independence WarB) right after the Independence WarC) when independence was declared in 1776D) during the War of Independence which ended in 17834.

30、ipes and 13 white stars represent .A) 13 independent statesB) the colonies that declared independence in 1776C) the U.S. CongressD) 13 famous figures in the American colonies5. Why was the original design of 13 stripes restored in 1818?A) Too many stripes would destroy the shape of the flag.B) Congr

31、ess insisted 13 is the best number.C) That was a decision President Taft had made.D) The American people suggested it.Passage TwoThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserabl

32、e. Thus arises the different ways in which they consider things, persons and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, t

33、he fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. On the contrary, unhappy people tend to focus their attention on the unpleasant parts of everything. Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they “ sourt he pleasures of society ” an,d make themselves disagreeable everywher

34、e. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown toits possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who ha

35、ve it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. For

36、those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and“ scTahricse ly thatfrequently puts them in bad temper and draws into arguments. If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank of fortune, nobody wishes them success

37、. Nor will anyone stir a step or speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them, and many will join to criticize their misconduct. These people should change this bad habit and condescend to be pleased with what is pleasing, witho

38、ut worrying needlessly about themselves and others. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them. Otherwise, it can be disagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixed up in their quarrels.6. People who are unhappy .A) always consider thing

39、s differently from othersB) usually are influenced by the results of certain thingsC) can discover the unpleasant part of certain thingsD) usually have a fault-finding habit7. The phrase “ sour the pleasures of society ” most nearly means they .A) have a good taste to the pleasures of societyB) have

40、n t a good taste to the pleasures of societyC) feel happy with the pleasures of societyD) enjoy the pleasures of society8. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to passage?A) We should pity all such unhappy people.B) Such unhappy people are critical about everything.C) If such unha

41、ppy people recognize the bad effects of the habit on themselves they may get rid of it.D) Such unhappy people are also not content with themselves.9. The phrase “ scarcely that ” mean_s_.A) just like thatB) almost not like thatC) more than thatD) not all like that10. If such unhappy people don t cha

42、nge their bad behavior, the author s solution to theproblem is that .A) people should avoid contact with themB) people should criticize their misconductC) people should help them recognize the bad effects of the habitD) people should show no respect and politeness to them Passage ThreeAsking three p

43、eople to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are that you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the wind

44、ow, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket 罚款( 单 ). Another may say that he sees a rushhour traffic jam at the intersection.

45、 what the sensein this case our eyestell us.Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him.
