75、60;Part III Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by a number of questions for comprehension. Read the passages carefully and answer the questions. Passage One    Long before the first Europeans arrived in Amer

76、ica, a strange looking animal lived on the western plains. It looked somewhat like a water buffalo(北美洲野牛) It had a hump(驼峰) like a camel and a mane(鬃)like a lion. It preferred to eat the rich grass of the plains. The official name of the strange animal is the American Bison. However, nearly everyone

77、 calls it a buffalo.    In the early days, millions of buffalo moved freely across the continent. They were powerful animals and ran with great speed. The Indians hunted them for food and clothing.    In the 19th century, white men hunted the bison for their skins. They

78、 seldom killed the bison for meat. One famous frontiersman, however, Buffalo Bill Cody hunted buffalo for meat. The railroads used the meat to feed their workers.The American buffalo could run at a speed of almost 75 kilometers an hour. He was difficult to hurt because he was always for a fight. The

79、re were times when five or six bullets would not kill him, and buffalo hunters sometimes had a lot of trouble killing the animal. The buffaloes were hard to control and the hunters would get confused or feel helpless. Finally, in the west the expression, to buffalo, came to mean to make one helpless

80、 or to confuse and trick    It is still used today. When a person has you "buffaloed", he has you in his power. You're helpless!51. When did the bison begin to live on the western plains of America?   A. When the European immigrated to America.   B. L

81、ong before the first Europeans arrived in America.   C. After the Europeans immigrated to America.   D. A short time before the first Europeans arrived in America.52. The bison looks like a _   .   A. lion         &

83、60;                                B. for their meat        C. for theft hunters      

84、0;                                   D. for their skins54. Why was American Bison difficult to hurt?   A. Because he was

85、 always for a fight.   B. Because he could nm fast.   C. Because he was too thick to be caught.   D. Because his look was odd enough to frighten away the hunters.55. “To be buffaloed” means _       A. to run as fast as a buffalo   

86、0;             B. to be helpless or be confused   C. to be caught for amusement               D. to be as special as a buffalo Passage Two  

87、  Personal interviewing is most effective, when all the people to be interviewed are located in a relatively small geographical area. Otherwise, the time and expense spent in traveling from one person to another makes this type of interviewing economically impractical. Personal interviewing is

88、usually used when the information needed is too complex to be gathered by another technique. For example, a problem being studied may require the interviewer to probe beyond the more superficial answers that might be obtained with another method.    It is sometimes assumed that person

89、al interviewing is the most accurate of all survey research techniques. Although personal interviewing may be accurate, in many cases, human errors may prevent a researcher from obtaining valid results. Questions perceived by the interviewee as an invasion of privacy or threatening in any way will p

90、robably produce false or partially true answers. Also, since the interviewer must interpret the respondent's statements, a certain amount of information loses results even though the respondent may be answering truthfully.   In spite of the problems, at least two major advantages are p

91、rovided by this research technique. First, the alert interviewer can generally tell if the respondent is being truthful or if he or she is giving superficial or untrue responses. Second, the interviewer can rephrase questions, give more explanations, or probe more deeply if the initial questions do

92、not produce the information desired. As a result, the information gleaned should be more accurate than that provided by interviews where no one is present to clarify questions or to interpret answers.56. It can be concluded from the passage that when all the people to be interviewed are located in a

93、 relatively big geographical area_.   A. personal interviewing is most effective   B. personal interviewing is economically impractical   C. personal interviewing is the only technique to get information   D. telephone interviewing may not be used57. Sometimes

94、 a researcher cannot get valid results because_ .   A. the information needed is too complex to be gathered   B. personal interviewing is the most accurate of all survey research techniques   C. personal interviewing is not as effective as other research techniques 

95、;  D. both interviewer and interviewee may make mistakes during the interview58. In the second paragraph, the phrase "an invasion of privacy" most probably means_.   A. an unpleasant conversation   B. a challenge to interviewee's professional skills  

96、 C. an interference with interviewee's personal affairs   D. an interference with interviewee's hobby59. In the first sentence of the last paragraph, the pronoun "this" refers to a(n)       A. survey        

97、                           B. question   C. answering                  

98、0;             D. personal interviewing60. According to the last paragraph, one of the advantages of the personal interviewing is_.   A. the interviewer can ask the interviewee questions again in different ways   B. the inter

99、viewer can ask the interviewee some personal questions   C. the initial questions do not produce the information desired   D. no one 5s present to clarify questions Passage Three    I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city.
