3、A recent university research project investigated the attitudes of postgraduate science students 1 _the learning of English vocabulary. The results were urprising.

4、mpletely 4 _to the facts. A glance at any English dictionary will show this. The student will 5 _find seven or eight meanings listed for 6 _simple words.

8、They believe that as soon as they know the meaning of a word, theyre in a 18 _to use it correctly. This is untrue for any language but is perhaps particularly 19 _for English. The student has to learn when to use a word as well as to know what it means. Some words in English mean almost the same but

34、swer on the Answer Sheet. 9 One day in 1963, a dolphin named Elvar and a famous astronomer, Carl Sagan, were playing a little game. The astronomer was visiting an institute which was looking into the way dolphins communicate with each other. He was standing at the edge of one of the tanks where seve

35、ral of these highly intelligent, friendly creatures were kept. Elvar had just swum up alongside hiui,and had turned on his back. He wanted Sagan to scratch his stomach again, as the astronomer had done twice before. But this time Elvar was too deep in the water for Sagan to reach him. Elvar looked u

36、p at Sagan, waiting. Then, after a minute or so, the dolphin leapt up through the water into the air and made a sound just like the word More. The astonished astronomer went -to the director of the institute and told him about the incident. Oh, yes: Thats one of the words he knows, the director said

37、, showing no surprise at all. Dolphins have bigger brains in proportion to their body size than humans have, andit has been known for a long time that they can make a number o. sounds. What is more, these sounds seem to have different functions, such as warning each other of danger. Sound travels mu

38、ch faster ,and much further in water than it does in air. That is why the parts of the brain that deal with sound are much better developed in dolphins than in humans. But can it be said that dolphins have a language in the real sense of the word. Scientists dont agree on this. A language is not jus

39、t a collection of sounds, or even words. A language has a structure, or what we call a grammar. The grammar of a language helps to give it meaning. For example, the two questions Who loves Mary. and Who does Mary love. mean different things. If you stop to think about it, you will see that this diff

40、erence doesnt come from the words in the question but from the difference in structure. That is why the question Can dolphins speak. cant be answered until we find out if dolphins not only make sounds but also arrange them in ways which affect their meaning. 71. The dolphin leapt into the air becaus

41、e A Sagan had turned his back B it was part of the game they were playing C he wanted Sagan to scratch him again D Sagan wanted him to do this 72. When Sagan told the director about what the dolphin had done, the director 10 A didnt seem to think it was unusual B thought Sagan was joking C told Saga

42、n about other words the dolphin knew D asked him if he knew other words 73. Dolphins brains are particularly well-developed to A help them to travel fast in water B arrange sounds in different structures C respond to different kinds of sound D communicate with humans through sound 74. The sounds we

43、call words can be called a language only if A each sound has a different meaning B each sound is different from the other C there is a system of writing D they have a structure or grammar （2）Married people live happily ever after in fairy tales, but they do so less and less often in real life. 1, li

44、ke many of my friends, got married, divorced, and remarried. I suppose, to some people, Im a failure. After all, I broke my first solemn promise to love and cherish until death us do part. But I feel that Im finally a success. I learned from the mistakes I made in my first marriage. This time around

45、, the ways my husband and I share our free time, make decisions, and deal with problems are very different. I learned, first of all, not to be a clinging vine 依 赖 男 子 的 妇 女 . In my first marriage, I felt the every moment we spent apart was wasted. If Ray wanted to go out to a bar with his friends to

46、 watch a football game, I felt rejected and talked him into staying home. I wouldnt accept an offer to go to a movie or join an exercise class it it meant that Ray would be home alone. I realize now that we were often angry with each other just because we spent too much time together. In contrast, m

47、y second husband and I spend some of our tree 11 time apart and try to have interests of our own. I have started playing racquetball at a health club, and David sometimes takes off to go to the local auto races with his friends. When we are together, we arent bored with each other; our separate inte

48、rests make us more interesting people. I learned not only to be apart sometimes but also to work together when its time to make decisions. When Ray and I were married, I left all the important decisions to him. He decided how we would spend money, whether we should sell the car or fix it, and where

49、to take a vacation. I know now that I went along with this so that I wouldnt have to take the responsibility when things went wrong. I could always end an argument by saying, It was your fault. With my second marriage, I am trying to be a full partner. We ask each others opinions on major decisions

50、and try to compromise if we disagree. If we make the wrong choice, were equally guilty. When we rented an apartment, for example, we both had to take the blame for not noticing the drafty windows and the no pets clause in our lease. Maybe the most important thing Ive learned is to be a grown-up abou

51、t facing problems. David and i have made a vow to face our troubles like adults. If were mad at each other or worried and upset, we say how we feel. Rather than hide behind our own misery, we talk about the problem until we discover how to fix it. Everybody argues or has to deal with the occasional

52、crisis, but Ray and I always reacted like children to these stormy times. I would lock myself in the spare bedroom. Ray would stalk out of the house, slam the door, and race off in the car. Then I would cry and worry till he returned. I wish that my first marriage hadnt been the place where I learne

53、d how to make a relationship work, but at least I did learn. 1 feel better now about being an independent person, about making decisions, and about facing problems. My second marriage isnt perfect, but it doesnt have the deep flaws that made the first one fall apart. 75. Which of the following has c

54、ontributed to the writers divorce. A Her former husband went out to watch football games. B She started to play racquetball at a health club. C They spent too much time together and got bored with each other. D They spent so little time together that they could not talk to each other. 76. It can be

55、learned from the passage that the writer, in her first marriage, A took less responsibility than she should for major decision 12 B tool: the same responsibility as her husband C took more blame when things went wrong D felt equally guilty when things went wrong 77. Which of the following that the a

56、uthor should have said when she quarrelled with her former husband but she did not. A It was your fault. B Maybe youre right. C Its none of your business. D Its none of my business. 78. All the problems between the writer and David can be resolved because A they hide their feelings B they lock thems

57、elves in their bedroom C they have promised not to be mad at each other D they dare to face them 79, The writers second marriage is different from the first one in all the following ways except A that they share their free time B that they make their decisions together C that they talk to each other

58、 D that they deal with their troubles together 80. The best title for the passage is A First Marriage B Second Marriage C Divorce D Perfect Marriage （3）13 Classified Advertising is that advertising which is grouped in certain sections of the paper and is thus distinguished from display advertising.

59、Such groupings as Help Wanted, Real Estate, Lost and Found are made, the rate charged being less than that for display advertising. Classified advertisements are a convenience to the reader and a saving to the advertiser. The reader who, is interested in a particular kind of advertisement finds all

60、advertisements of that type grouped for him. The advertiser may, on this account, use a very small advertisement that would be lost if it were placed among larger advertisements in the paper. It is evident that the reader approaches the classified advertisement in a different frame of mind from that
