16、shed statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D, You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: Long after the 1998 World C

17、up was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the disputed refereeing (裁判) decisions that denied victory to their team. A researcher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees. The researcher organized an experimental tournament (錦標(biāo)賽) involving four youth teams. Each match lasted

18、 an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge. Observers noted down the referees errors, of which there were 61 over the tournament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 mistakes, a remarkably high number. The re

19、searcher then studied the videotapes to analyze the matches in detail. Surprisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors

20、was 12 meters. The research shows the optimum (最佳的)distance is about 20 meters. There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second. If FIFA, footballs internation

21、al ruling body, wants to improve the standard of refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball, the researcher argues. He also says that FIFAs insistence that referees should retire at age

22、 45 may be misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.21. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to _ .A. review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World CupB. analyse the causes of errors made by football refereesC. set a

23、 standard for football refereeingD. reexamine the rules for football refereeing22. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was _ . A. slightly C. quite unexpected B. higher than in the 1998 World Cup D. as high as in a standard match23. The findings of the experiment show that _.

24、A. errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ballB. the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errorsC. the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occurD. errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spot24. The word “officials” (Line 3, Para.

25、4) most probably refers to _.A. the researchers involved in the experimentB. the inspectors of the football tournament C. the referees of the football tournamentD. the observers at the site of the experiment25. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?A. The ideal retirement age for

26、 an experienced football referee is 45.B. Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.C. A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.D. An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are

27、based on the following passage: While still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great success in many states- at least in getting people off welfare. Its estimated that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994. In the past four years , welfare rolls in Athe

28、ns County have been cut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past two years took jobs that paid less than $6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent - twice the national average. For advocates (代言人) for the poor, thats an indication

29、much more needs to be done. “More people are getting jobs, but its not making their lives any better,” says Kathy Lairn, a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities in Washington. A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that between 1995 and 1996, a greater percentage

30、 of single, female-headed households were earning money on their won, but that average income for these households actually went down. But for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost as well as without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge victory. “Wel

31、fare was a poison. It was a toxin (毒素) that was poisoning the family,” says Robert Rector, a welfare-reform policy analyst. “The reform is changing the moral climate in low-income communities. Its beginning to rebuild the work ethic ( 道德觀) , which is much more important.” Mr.Rector and others argued

32、 that once “the habit of dependency is cracked,” then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.26. From the passage, it can be seen that the author _.A. believes the reform has reduced the governments burdenB. insists that welfare reform is doing little good for

33、the poorC. is overenthusiastic about the success of welfare reformD. considers welfare reform to be fundamentally successful27. Why arent people enjoying better lives when they have jobs?A. Because many families are divorced.B. Because government aid is now rare.C. Because their wages are low.D. Bec

34、ause the cost of living is rising.28. What is worth noting from the example of Athens County is that _ .A. greater efforts should be made to improve peoples standardsB. 70 percent of the people there have been employed for two yearsC. 50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfareD. the li

35、ving standards of most people are going down29. From the passage we know that welfare reform aims at _. A. saving welfare funds C. providing more jobs B. rebuilding the work ethic D. cutting government expenses30. According to the passage, before the welfare reform was carried out, _ .A. the poverty

36、 rate was lowerB. average living standards were higherC. the average worker was paid higher wagesD. the poor used to rely on government aidPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are base on the following passage” Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things m

37、ore than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States? Among the arguments for uniform, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes.

38、 People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The television repairman who wears a uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there fo

39、r a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity (身份) than to step out of uniform? Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible(可減稅的) . They are often more comfortable and more durable than civi

40、lian clothes. Primary among the arguments against uniform is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retiremen

41、t. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least. Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requ

42、iring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.31.
