17、lowed by some questions or unfinished statements。 For each of them there are four choices marked A, B， C and D。 You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity。 It may be walking, cycling or swimming, or， i

18、n winter, skating or skiing (滑雪）. It may be a game of some kind - football， hockey （曲棍球）， golf， or tennis. It may be mountaineering.Those who have a passion (激情） for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardsh

19、ip， and to take risks on high mountains？ This astonishment is caused， probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure。Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no manmade rules， as there are for such games, as golf and football

20、。 There are, of course， rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from manmade rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar spo

21、rts, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a team game. We should be mistaken in this。 There are, it is true, no matches between teams of climbers， but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork。The mo

22、untain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man。 He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year。 A skier is probably past his best by the a

23、ge of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties。 But it is not unusual for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less waste of effort, and they certainl

24、y experience equal enjoyment.The difference between a sport and a game has to do with _。A。 the kind of activityB. the kind of rulesC。 the kind of uniformD. the kind of participants (參與者)Mountaineering can be called a team sport because _。A. it is an Olympic eventB. teams compete against each otherC.

25、 mountaineers depend on each other while climbingD。 there are 5 climbers in each teamMountaineers compete against _.A. natureB. each otherC。 other teamsD. international standardsThe age during which people can enjoy mountaineering _.A. is very restrictedB。 is from 20 to 30C。 is governed by lawD。 is

26、limited only by individual ability and desireWhich is the best title for the passage？A。 Mountaineering is Different from Golf and FootballB. Mountaineering is More Attractive Than Other SportsC。 MountaineeringD。 Mountain ClimbersPassage 2Conflict, like stress, is a natural phenomenon when people int

27、eract. Conflict in some form is always present; however， it is not always negative. Conflict can be positive, for example， when you and your colleagues try to select the best possible solution to a problem。 However， much more attention is given to the negative aspects of conflict. Conflict occurs wh

28、en we fear the unknown. This can be very simple: someone says something in a tone of voice different from our expectations， which raises questions in our mind as to what the real meaning might be. Of course conflict can, and does, occur in much more serious circumstances。 Your ability to detect and

29、understand conflict will place you in a better position to control the situation。 Conflict is often categorized in three stages. Stage one is the day-to-day irritations (惱人的事） that are easy to deal with. Stage one conflict is real but low in intensity。 The intensity can increase if irritations incre

30、ase and no solutions are found. Stage two is reached when the two sides become competitive。 Each person protects his selfinterest and fears loss of face。 Stage three is reached when the objective changes from wanting to win toward wanting to hurt the other side. This stage can be explosive because o

31、ther people are drawn into the conflict and sides are chosen。 Problem solving is no longer a realistic method of resolution. By understanding the three stages of conflict, it will be easier for you to handle the dayto-day situations to which you are exposed。 You will also be able to detect potential

32、 conflict between others in which you do not want to get involved。Conflict is _.A. paid attention to because it is negativeB。 only positive when occurring between colleaguesC。 universally present in human interactionsD. similar to stress in every aspectStage two conflict is different from stage one

33、conflict in that _.A. it is caused by daily disputesB。 it is low in intensityC. it takes a form of competitionD。 it always leads to loss of faceThe third stage can be explosive because _.A。 quarreling becomes inevitableB. it is no longer a conflict between two individualsC. people begin to hate each

34、 otherD。 no solution is possibleThe ability to identify conflict _.A。 can help you make good use of conflictB. enables you to win every competitionC。 can prevent conflict from occurringD。 can help you deal with the situation betterThe conflict between a student and his roommate caused by different l

35、iving habits is an instance of _。A。 stage one conflictB. stage two conflictC. stage three conflictD。 none of the abovePassage 3All of us communicate with one another nonverbally （不使用語(yǔ)言地), as well as with words。 Most of the time were not aware that were doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or a hand, m

36、eet someone elses eyes and look away, change positions in a chair。 These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language。One important kind of body language is eye behavior。 Ameri

37、cans are careful about how and when they meet one anothers eyes. In our normal conversation， each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away。 When two Americans look searchingly into each others eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore， we carefully avoid this, except

38、 in suitable situations。Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs (磨擦) his nose， it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing something。 But there are other possible

39、interpretations， too。 Another example： when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older mans eyes a little longer than is usual， it can be a sign of respect; it can be a challenge to the professors authority （權(quán)威); it can be something else entirely。 The researchers look for patterns in

40、 the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.Communication between human beings would be just dull if it were all done with words.The main idea of this article is that _。A. study of communication through body movement is a new scienceB。 body movements are as important as words in communicat

41、ionC。 all of us communicate with one anotherD. eye behavior is the most important part in body languageWhat do researchers think of body language？A. Body language can be understood and used by people in communication。B. Body language is more important than spoken language in communication.C。 Body la

42、nguage has been discovered in recent years。D。 Body language is the study of communication through body movement.The word “intimate” in paragraph 2 probably means _。A. greatB。 closeC. goodD。 importantAccording to the passage， you make an American person feel uncomfortable, if you _。A。 meet his eyesB。

43、 avoid meeting his eyesC。 stare into his eyes for one secondD. look into his eyes for a long timeThe sentence “The researchers look for patterns in the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture” means _。A。 the researchers explain the meaning of a gesture according to the situation in which it

44、 is usedB。 the researchers believe that one gesture has only one meaningC. the researchers think that one gesture can not be used in different situationsD。 the researchers look for patterns in textbooks to explain the meaning of a gesturePassage 4How often one hears children wishing they were grown

45、up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets。Youth is a time when there are few tasks to make life difficult. If a child has good parents，

46、he is fed, looked after and loved whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return。In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child - things that have lost their interest for older people because they are

47、too well-known. But a child has his pains： he is not so free to do what he wishes to do； he is continually being told not to do things， or being punished for what he has done wrong。When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and

48、his room， but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry。 And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison。 If, however， he works hard， keeps ou

49、t of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.People can experience happiness if they _.A。 always think of the past and regret itB。 value the presentC. are no longer youngD. become old and have much experienceWhen people were

51、arentsC。 they can not be accepted and praised by othersD。 they are not allowed to do what they like to doChildren are usually happy because _。A. old people lose interest in themB. they are free to do wrongC。 they are familiar with everything going on around themD。 things are new to themWhich of the

52、following is NOT needed for a young man to be happy？A。 Hard work.B。 Being free from troubles。C. Wealth.D。 Health。Part III ClozeDirections： There are 20 blanks in each of the following passages。 For each blank there are four choices marked A， B， C， and D。 You should choose the one that best fits into

54、 the wrong. Being human， we all need the art of apology. Look back and think how 60 youve judged roughly， said 61 things, pushed yourself ahead at the 62 of a friend.
