Examining a cultures tools and technology can tell us about the groups history and way of life. Similarly, research into the materia

19、l culture of music can help us to understand the music-culture. The most vivid body of “things” in it, of course, are musical instruments.

Through the study of instruments, as well preserved Paintings, written documents, and so on, we can explore the movement of mu

21、sic from the Neat East to China over a thousand years ago, or we can outline the spread of Near eastern influence to Europe that results in the development of most of the instruments on the symphony orchestra.Sheet music or printed music, too is material culture. Scholars once defined folk music-cul

22、tures as those in with people learn and sing music by ear rather than from print, but research show mutual influence among oral and written sources during the past few centuries in Europe, Britain, and America, printed versions limit variety because they tend to standardize any song, yet they stimul

23、ate people to create new and different songs. Besides, the ability to read music notation has a far-reaching effect on musicians and, when it becomes widespread, on the music-culture as a whole.One more important part of musics material culture should be singled out the influence of the electronic m

24、edia-radio, record player, tape recorder, television, and videocassette, with the future promising talking and singing computers and other developments. This all part of the “information revolution,” a twentieth century phenomenon as important as the industrial revolution was in the nineteenth. Thes

31、s highly dependent or its material aspect.（D）Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.The question of whether war is inevitable is one which has concerned many of the worlds great writers. Before considering this question, it will useful to introduce some related concepts. Conflict, def

32、ined as opposition among social entities directed against one another is distinguished from competition, defined as opposition among social entities independently striving for some thing which is in inadequate supply. Competitors may not be aware of one another, while the parties to a conflict are.

33、Conflict and vice of one another.Opposition is thus contrasted with cooperation, the process by which social entities function in the service of one another. These definitions are necessary because it is important to emphasize that competition between individuals or groups is inevitable in a world o

34、f limited resources, but conflict is not. Conflict, nevertheless, is very likely to occur, and is probably an essential and desirable element of human societies.Many authors have argued for the inevitability of war from the premise that in the struggle for existence among animal species, only the fi

35、ttest survive. In general, however this struggle in natures competition, not conflict. Social animals, such as monkeys and cattle, fight to win or maintain leadership of the group. The struggle for existence occurs not in such fights but in the competition for limited feeding areas and for the occup

36、ancy of areas free from meet-eating animals. Those who fail in competition starve to death or become victims to other species. This struggle for existence does not resemble human war, but rather the competition of individuals for jobs, markets, and materials. The essence of the struggle is the compe

37、tition for the necessities of life that are insufficient to satisfy all.Among nations there is competition in developing resources trades, skills, and a satisfactory way of life. The successful nations grow and prosper; the unsuccessful decline. While it is true that this competition may induce effo

38、rts to expand territory at the expense of others, and thus lead to conflict, it cannot be said that war-like conflict among nations is inevitable, although competition is.26.In the first paragraph, the author gives the definitions of some term in order to _.A) argue for the similarities between and

39、human societiesB) smooth out the conflicts in human societiesC) distinguish between two kinds of oppositionD) summarize the that characteristic features of opposition and cooperation（C）27.According to the author, competition differs from conflict in that _.A) it results in war in most casesB) it ind

40、uces efforts to expand territoryC) it is kind of opposition among aria entitiesD) it is essentially a struggle for existence（D）28.The phrase “function in the disservice of one another” (Para. 1) most probably means “_”.A) betray each otherB) harm one anotherC) help to collaborate with each otherD) b

41、enefit on another（B）29.The author indicates in the passage that conflict _.A) is an inevitable struggle resulting from competitionB) reflects the struggle among social animalsC) is an opposition among individual social animalsD) can be avoided（D）30.The passage is probably intended to answer the ques

42、tion “_”.A) Is war inevitable?B) Why is there conflict and competition?C) Is conflict desirable?D) Can competition lead to conflict?（A）Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.As Dr. Samuel Johnson said in a different era about ladies preaching, the surprising thing about computer is no

43、t that they think less well than a man, but that they think at all. The early electronic computer did not have much going for it except a marvelous memory and some good math skills. But today the best models can be wired up to learn by experience, follow an argument, ask proper questions and write p

44、oetry and write poetry and music. They can also carry on somewhat puzzling conversations.Computers imitate life. As computer get more complex, the imitation gets better. Finally, the line between the original and the copy becomes unclear. In another 15 years or so, we will the computer as a new form

45、 of life.The opinion seems ridiculous because, for one thing, computers lack the drives and emotions of living creatures. But drives car can be programmed into the computers brain just as nature programmed them into our human brains as a part of the equipment for survival.Computers match people in s

46、ome roles, and when fast decisions are needed in a crisis, they often surpass them. Having evolved when the pace of life was slower, the human brain has an inherent defect that prevents it from absorbing several streams of information simultaneously and acting on them quickly. Throw too many things

47、at the brain one time and it freezes up.We are still control, but the capabilities of computer are increasing at a fantastic rate, while raw human intelligence is changing slowly, if as all. Computer power has increased ten times every eight years since 1946. In the 1990s, when the sixth generation

48、appears, the reasoning power of an intelligence built out of silicon will begin to match that of the human brain.That does not mean the evolution of intelligence has ended on the earth. Judging by the he past, we can expect that a new species will arise out of man, surpassing his achievements those

49、of his predecessor. Only a carbon chemistry enthusiast would assume that the new species must be mans flesh-and-blood descendants. The new kind of intelligent life is more I likely to be made of silicon.31.What do you suppose the attitude of Dr. Samuel Johnson towards ladies preaching?A) He believed

50、 that ladies were born worse preachers that men.B) He was pleased that ladies could though not as well as men.C) He disapproved of ladies preaching.D) He encouraged ladies to preach.（A）32.Today, computer are still inferior to man in terms of _.A) decision makingB) drives and feelingsC) growth of rea

51、soning powerD) information absorption（B）33.In terms of making quick decisions, the human brain cannot be compared with the computer because _.A) in the long process of evolution slow pace of life didnt require such ability of the computer because brainB) the human brain is influenced by other factor

52、s such as motivation and emotionC) the human brain may sometimes freeze up in a dangerous situationD) the evolution of imitate life while the human brain docs not imitate computers（C）34.Though he think highly of the development of computer science, the author doesnt mean that _.A) computers are like

53、ly to become a new form of intelligent lifeB) human beings have lost control of computersC) the intelligence of computers will eventually surpass will that of human beingsD) the evolution of intelligence will probably depend on that of electronic brains（B）35.According to the passage, which of the fo

54、llowing statements is TRUE?A) Future man will be made of silicon instead of flesh and blood.B) Some day it will be difficult to tell a computer from a man.C) The reasoning power of computers has already surpassed that of man.D) Future intelligent life may not necessarily be made of organic matter.（D

55、）Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Video recorders and photocopiers, even ticket machines on the railways, often seem unnecessarily difficult to use. Last December I bought myself a Video cassette recorder (VCR) described as “simple to use”. In the first three weeks I failed repe

56、atedly to program the machine to record from the TV, and after months of practice I still made mistakes. I am not alone. According to a survey last year by Ferguson, the British manufacturer, more than one in four VCR owners never use the timer on their machines to record a programme: they dont use

57、it because theyve found it far too hard to operate.So why do manufacturers keep on designing and producing VCRS that are awkward to use if the problems are so obvious?First, the problems we notice are not obvious to technically minded designers with years of experience and trained to understand how appliances work. Secondly, designers tend to add one or two features at a time to each model, whereas you or I face all a machines features at once. Thirdly, although find problems in a finished product is easily, it is too late by then to do anything about the design. Finally, if manufacturers ca
