Reading Comprehension (30 points， 2 points for each item)从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestions 21 to

13、 25 are based on the following passage.Alcohol affects the brain; and its immediate effects are more marked on those who are not used to the drug than on regular drinkers. It is not a stimulant but a depressant， which adversely affects concentration， removes inhabitations， and increases the risk of

14、accidents. Under the influence of alcohol people are less able to exercise self-control and may say and do things that they afterwards regret-perhaps for the rest of their lives. For example， a girl who does not wish to have a baby may be made pregnant by a man whom she would not have chosen as the

15、farther of her child; and a man may make pregnant a woman whom he would not have chosen as the mother of his child. Some other forms of drug taking， like drinking alcohol and smoking tobacco， are part of group behavior. Such drug taking is encouraged by those who are already addicted to the drug， an

16、d by those who profit by making and selling the drug.Imean one who starts taking a drug may soon become addicted to it. As with all bad habits， it is better not to start drug taking than to suffer the physical and emotional harm caused by the drug and to have the problem of trying to break the addic

17、tion. It is best， therefore， to refuse the drugs that is offered. Apart from other considerations， drugs that come from unreliable sources (because their manufacturer and distribution is against the law.) and not available in carefully measured and doses and their purity are not guaranteed. Their ef

18、fects are unpredictable and they may well be dangerous. If such drugs are offered by so-called friends you wouldnt be well advised to find new friends， who share your values， and to continue being yourself.21. Regular drinkers of alcohol are those who_are not used to the drugmany get immediate effec

Under the influence of alcohol， people_.are able to concentrate themselvesare able to exercise self controlare afraid of taking the risk of accidentsmay see and do things that they afterwards regret23.

21、rt drug taking25. Drugs that come from unreliable sources_are illegalare not available in measured dosesare encouraged to takeare manufactured abroadPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Everybody gets sick. Disease and injury make us suffer throughout our lives until， fin

22、ally， some attack on the body brings our existence to an end. Fortunately， most of us in modern industrialized societies can take relatively good health for granted most of the time. In fact， we tend to fully realize the importance of good health only when we or those close to us become seriously il

23、l. At such times we keenly appreciate the ancient truth that health is our most precious asset， one for which we might readily give up such rewards as power， wealth， or fame(荣誉)。Because ill health is a universal problem， affecting both the individual and society， the human response to sickness in al

24、ways socially organized. No society leaves the responsibility for maintaining health and treating ill health entirely to the individual. Each society develops its own concepts of health and sickness and authorizes certain people to decide who is sick and how the sick should be treated. Around this f

25、ocus there arises， over time， a number of standard， values， groups， statuses， and roles: in other words， an institution(体系，机构)。 To the sociologist(社会学家)， then， medicine is the institution concerned with the maintenance of health and the treatment of disease.In the simple pre-industrial societies， me

26、dicine is usually an aspect of religion. The social arrangements for dealing with sickness are very elementary， often involving only two roles: the sick and the healer(治疗者)。 The later is typically also the priest(牧师)， who relies primarily on religious ceremonies， both to identify and to treat diseas

27、e: For example， bones may be thrown to establish a cause， songs may be used to bring about a cure. In modern industrialized societies， on the other hand， the institution has become highly complicated and specialized， including dozens of roles such as those of brain surgeon， druggist， hospital admini

28、strator， linked with organizations such as nursing houses， insurance companies， and medical schools. Medicine， in fact， has become the subject of intense sociological interest precisely because it is now one of the most pervasive and costly institutions of modern society.26. Which of the following s

29、tatements is true according to Paragraph 1?A、Nowadays most people believeB、Human life involves a great deal of pain and suffering.C、most of us are aware of the full value of healthD、ancient people believed that health was more expensive than anything else.27. The word “authorize” in paragraph 2 mean

30、s “_”。A、make way forB、give power toC、write an order forD、make it possible for28. In paragraph 2， we learn that the sociologist regards medicine as _.A、a system whose purpose is to treat disease and keep people healthyB、a universal problem that affects every societyC、a social responsibility to treat

31、ill healthD、a science that focuses on the treatment of disease29. According to Paragraph 3， which of the following is NOT true?A、In the past， bones might be used to decide why people fell illB、In pre-industrial societies priests sometimes treated patients by singingC、Modern medicine is so complicate

32、d that sociology no longer has a place in it.D、there were only two roles in an elementary medical system， the patient and the one who tried to cure them.30. The author of this passage is mainly concerned with _.A、sociological aspects in medicineB、medical treatment of diseasesC、the development of med

33、ical scienceD、the role of religion in medicinePassage threeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passageLets look at another example of how peoples communication patterns differ: the way people conserve. Some foreigners have observed that when Americans carry on a conversation， it seems as i

34、f they are having a Ping-Pong game. One person has the ball and then hits it to the other side of the table. The other player hits the ball back and the game continues. If one person doesnt return the ball， then the conversation stops. Each part of the conversation follows this pattern: the greeting

35、 and the opening， the discussion of a topic， and the closing and farewell. If either person talks too much， the other may become impatient and feel that he is dominating the conversation. Similarly， if one person doesnt say enough or ask enough questions to keep the conversation going， the conversat

36、ion stops.Many North Americans are impatient with culturally different conversation styles simply because the styles are unfamiliar. For example， to many North Americans， it seems that some Latin Americans dominate conversations， or hold the ball too long. Speaking of her co-workers from several Lat

37、in American countries， one North Americans woman said，“ I just find it difficult to cut in. they seem to take such a long time to express themselves. They give you a lot of unnecessary details.” when she talked with them， she became tense， because she found it so hard to participate. Yet she also no

38、ted that when they talked to each other， nobody seemed uncomfortable or left out.The North American woman didnt know how to interrupt the Latin American conversations because North American ways of listening and breaking in are very different. She had been taught to listen politely until the other p

39、erson had finished talking. (once again， there are gender(性别)difference; it has been observed that men tend to interrupt women more than women interrupt men.)when the North American woman did what was “natural” or “normal” for her(i. e.， listen politely without interrupting)， she was not comfortable

40、 in the conversation with the Latin Americans. The result was that she became more passive in her conversations with her co-workers. The differences between the unspoken rules of conversation of each cultural group interfered with their on-the-job relationship.31. When North Americans converse toget

41、her， each one of the group is supposed to _.A. participate in the talkB. play Ping-Pang gamesC. interrupt the speakerD. dominate the conversation32.

42、 Americans， the Latin Americans are _.A. politeB. communicativeC. dominantD. familiar34.
