Part Three Reading Comprehension
Ⅰ. Directions: Each of the passages is followed by some questions. For
each question four answers are given. Read the passages carefully and
choose the best answer to each question. Put your answer on the ANSWER
SHEET. (10%)
Passage One
What Makes a “Millennial Mind”?
Since 1000 AD, around 30 billion people have been born on our planet. The
vast majority have come and gone unknown to all but their friends and
family. A few have left some trace on history: a discovery made, perhaps,
or a record broken. Of those, fewer still are remembered long after their
death. Yet of all the people who have lived their lives during the last 1,
000 years, just 38 have achieved the status of “Millennial Minds” -that’s
barely one in a billion. Those whose lives Focus has chronicled have thus
become members of possibly the most exclusive list of all time. And
choosing who should be included was not easy.
From the beginning, the single most important criterion was that the
“Millennial Minds” are those who did more than merely achieve greatness in
their own time, or in one field. Thus mere winners of Nobel Prizes had no
automatic right to inclusion, nor artists who gained fame in their own
era, but whose reputation has faded with changing fashion. The
achievements of the genuine “Millennial Mind” affect our lives even now,
often in ways so fundamental that it is hard to imagine what the world was
like before.
Not even transcendent genius was enough to guarantee a place in the Focus
list. To rate as a “Millennial Mind”, the life and achievements also had
to cast light on the complex nature of creativity: its origins, nature,
and its personal cost.
61. The first paragraph tells us that__________.
A. Focus had a list of “Millennial Minds” worked out in secret
B. Focus had compiled a biographical book of the lives of “Millennial
Minds”
C. Focus ’s list of the “Millennial Minds” consists of a strictly selected
few
D. Focus tried hard to exclude most of the famous lives from the list of
the “Millennial Minds”
62. According to the second paragraph, which of the following statements
is TRUE?
A. Nobel Prize winners are not qualified for the “Millennial Minds”.
B. A “Millennial Mind” needs only to have a great influence on the lives
of the people of his time.
C. Only those whose achievements still greatly affect our lives today can
be included in the list of the “Millennial Minds”.
D. The “Millennial Minds” are those who have changed human lives so much
that people of later generations can not remember what things were likein
the past.
63. In the first sentence of the third paragraph, “transcendent genius”
means__________.
A. people who are exceptionally superior and great in talent
B. people whose achievements are not forgotten by later generations
C. people whose genius has been passed down to the present time
D. people who have guaranteed themselves a place in the Focus list
64. In the third paragraph, the phrase “cast light on” can be replaced
by__________.
A. shine over B. light up C. shed light on D. brighten up
Passage Two
Tribute to Dr. Carlo Urbani, Identifier of SARS
On the 29th of March, 2003, the World Health Organization doctor Carol
Urbani died of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, the fast-spreading
pneumonia that had killed 54 people worldwide.
The 46-year-old Italian doctor was the first WHO officer to identify the
outbreak of this new disease in an American businessman. Dr. Urbani first
saw the US businessman on Feb. 28, two days after the patient had been
admitted to a hospital in Hanoi. Although Urbani had worn a mask, he
lacked goggles and other protective clothing. He began demanding that
Hanoi hospitals stock up on protective gear and tighten up infection
control procedures. But he was frustrated at how long it was taking to
teach infection-control procedures to people in hospitals. There were
shortages of supplies, like disposable masks, gowns, gloves.
After three weeks of round-the-clock effort, Urbani’s superior urged him
to take a few days off to attend a medical meeting in Bangkok, where he
was to talk on childhood parasites. The day after he arrived, he began
feeling ill-with symptoms of the new disease. He called his wife, now
living in Hanoi with their three children. He said:“Go back to Italy and
take the children, because this will be the end for me.” Dr. Urbani
developed a fever and was put into isolation where he remained until his
death. The WHO representative in Hanoi said:“He was very much a doctor,
his first goal was to help people.”
He was buried on April 2, 2003 in Castelplanio, central Italy, leaving
behind his wife and children. The measures he helped put in place before
his death appear to have doused the SARS wildfire in Vietnam.
65. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?
A. Dr. Urbani caught SARS from an American businessman who was
hospitalized in Hanoi.
B. There were not enough disposable masks, gowns, gloves and protective
equipment.
C. He knew he had little hope to survive after he was found infected.
D. Dr. Urbani had helped combating the new disease by putting in place a
series of infection-control measures.
66. In the third paragraph, “three weeks of round-clock
effort”means__________.
A. for three weeks the hospital was taking in SARS patients without
stopping
B. Dr Urbani worked day and night for three weeks, trying to get SARS
under control
C. for three weeks Dr. Urbani did not have any time to sleep, trying hard
to fight the new disease
D. After three weeks hard work to control SARS, the hospital superior
thought it was time to stop the clock
67. According to the context, the word “doused” in the last sentence of
this passage could be best replaced with__________.
A. extinguished B. eliminated C. solved D. deluged
Passage Three
Glass
Since the Bronze Age, about 3000 B. C., glass has been used for making
various kinds of objects. It was first made from a mixture of silica,
lime, and an alkali such as soda or potash, and these remained the basic
ingredients of glass until the development of lead glass in the
seventeenth century.
When heated the mixture becomes soft and moldable and can be formed by
various techniques into a vast array of shapes and sizes. The homogeneous
mass thus formed by melting then cools to create glass, but in contrast to
most materials formed in this way (metals, for instance), glass lacks the
crystalline structure normally associated with solids, and instead retains
the random molecular structure of a liquid. In effect, as molten glass
cools, it progressively stiffens until rigid, but does so without setting
up a network of interlocking crystals customarily associated with that
process. This is why glass shatters so easily when dealt a blow.
Another unusual feature of glass is the manner in which its viscosity
changes as it turns from a cold substance into a hot, ductile liquid.
Unlike metals that flow or “freeze” at specific temperatures, glass
progressively softens as the temperature rises, going through varying
moldable stages until it flows like a thick syrup. Each of these stages
allows the glass to be manipulated into various forms, by different
techniques, and if suddenly cooled the object retains the shape achieved
at that point. Glass is thus open to a greater number of heat-forming
techniques than most other materials.
68. According to the passage glass cools and becomes rigid differently
from metals because__________.
A. it has an unusually low melting temperatrue
B. it does not set up a network of interlocking crystals
C. it has a random molecular structure of a liquid
D. it is made from a mixture of silica, lime, and soda
69. In the phrase “without setting up a network of interlocking crystals
customarily associated with that process” in the second paragraph, a
substitute for the word “customarily” may be__________.
A. continuously B. certainly C. eventually D. usually
70. Glass can be easily molded into all kinds of forms because__________.
A. it melts like liquid when heated
B. it softens gradually through varying stages when heated
C. it retains the shape at the point when it is suddenly cooled
D. various heating techniques can be used in making glass

No one gets out of this world alive, and few people come through life
without at least one serious illness. (71) If we are given a serious
diagnosis, it is useful to try to remain free of panic and depression.
Panic can constrict blood vessels and impose an additional burden on the
heart. (72) Depression, as medical researchers way back to Galen, an
ancient Greek doctor, have observed, can set the stage for other illnesses
or intensify existing ones. It is no surprise that so many patients who
learn that they have cancer or heart disease-or any other catastrophic
disease-become worse at the time of diagnosis. (73) The moment they have a
label to attach to their symptoms, the illness deepens. All the terrible
things they have heard about disease produce the kind of despair that in
turn complicates the underlying condition. (74) It is not unnatural to be
severely apprehensive about a serious diagnosis, but a reasonable
confidence is justified. Cancer today, for example, is largely a treatable
disease. A heavily damaged heart can be reconditioned. (75) Even a
positive HIV diagnosis does not necessarily mean that the illness will
move into the active stage.

Flowers for the Dead
Since flowers symbolize new life, it may seem inappropriate to have them
at funerals. Yet people in many cultures top coffins or caskets with
wreaths and garlands and put blossoms on the graves of the (76)
__________. This custom is part of a widespread, long-lived pattern. Edwin
Daniel Wolff speculated that floral tributes to the dead are an outgrowth
of the grave goods of ancient (77)__________. In cultures that firmly
believed in an (78)__________, and believed further that the
departed could enter that afterlife only (79) __________they took with
them indications of their worldly status, it was a necessity to bury the
dead with material goods: hence the wives and animals that were killed to
accompany (80)__________rulers, the riches (81)__________with Egyptian
pharaohs, and the coins that Europeans used to place on the departed
person’s eyes as payment for the Stygian ferryman. In time, as economy
modified tradition, the actual (82)__________goods were replaced
(83)__________symbolic representations. In China, for example, gold and
silver paper became a stand-in (84)__________real money. Eventually even
the symbolic significance became obscured. Thus, Wolff said, flowers may
be the (85)__________step in “three well-marked stages of offerings to the
dead: the actual object, its substitute in various forms, and — finally
—mere tributes of respect.”

(86) Homes could start been connected to the Internet through electrical
outlets. (87) In this way, consumers and business may find easier to make
cheaper telephone calls under new rules that the Federal Communications
Commission began preparing on Thursday. (88) Taking together, the new
rules could profoundly affect the architecture of the Internet and the
services it provides. (89) They also have enormous implications for
consumers, the telephone and energy industries, equipment manufacturers.
Michael K. Powell, the F. C. C. chairman, and his two Republican
colleagues on the five-member commission said that (90) a 4-to-1 vote on
Thursday to allow a small company providing computer-to-computer phone
connections to operate in different rules from ordinary phone companies,
would ultimately transform the telecommunications industry and the
Internet. (91) “This is a reflecting of the commission’s commitment to
bring tomorrow’s technology to consumers today,” said Mr. Powell. He added
that (92)the rules governing the new phone services sought to make them as
wide available as e-mail, (93) and possibly much less expensive than
traditional phones, and given their lower regulatory costs. At the same
time, (94) once while the rules allowing delivery of the Internet through
power lines are completed, (95) companies could provide consumers with the
ability to plug their modems directly into wall sockets, just like they do
with a toaster, or a desk lamp.

Part Six Writing
Epidemic Diseases and Public Health Crises
When SARS epidemic swept across China and stirred up even the entire globe
last year, people finally came to realize the concept of public health
crises, which in reality have already affected our life in various ways.
Why didn’t we recognize this until our life has been endangered? Surely,
epidemic diseases as a kind of public health crises, have contributed to
people’s perception of public health crises.
Public health itself is not new, but the term ”public health crises “has
been fresh for most people in China. It includes not only outbreaks of
diseases, but also water erosion, deforestation, desertification and many
other problems which mankind as a whole must face. Ever since the
industrial revolution and great economic expansion, people’s life has been
challenged in one way or another due to lots of irresponsible behaviors of
mankind. Most of the time, people have accustomed to their ordinary way of
life and do not spare time in comprehending the imminent crises.
On the other hand, epidemic outbreaks always take on a very severe outlook
and thus pose direct dangers to common people. They affect people’s daily
activities and even their lives, and that is why they can successfully
arouse people’s concerns about their own health. To some extent, our
awareness of our dining habits and carelessness in protecting the
environment can be attributed to the outbreak of some epidemics, like SARS
and bird flu.
We should all be gratitude for this awareness brought about by some
epidemics. As China and the world’s economy continue to expand,
governments and people are fully aware that some measures have to be taken
to fend off any possible danger to public health.
A. is to send them to clinics
B. offers recapture of earlier experiences
C. is in the provision of clockwork toys and trains
D. is to capture them before they are sufficiently experienced
47. The child in the nursery__________.
A. quickly learns to wait for food
B. doesn’t initially sleep and wake at regular intervals
C. always accepts the rhythm of the world around them
D. always feels the world around him is warm and friendly
48. The encouragement of children to achieve new skills__________.
A. can never be taken too far
B. should be left to school teachers
C. will always assist their development
D. should be balanced between two extremes
49. Jigsaw puzzles are__________.
A. too difficult for children
B. a kind of building-block toy
C. not very entertaining for adults
D. suitable exercises for parent-child cooperation
50. Parental controls and discipline__________.
A. serve a dual purpose
B. should be avoided as much as possible
C. reflect the values of the community
D. are designed to promote the child’s happiness
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:
More than half of all Jews married in U. S. since 1990 have wed people who
aren’t Jewish. Nearly 480, 000 American children under the age of ten have
one Jewish and one non-Jewish parent. And, if a survey compiled by
researchers at the University of California at Los Angeles is any
indication, it’s almost certain that most of these children will not
identify themselves as “Jewish” when they get older.
That survey asked college freshmen, who are usually around age 18, about
their own and their parents’ religious identities. Ninety-three percent of
those with two Jewish parents said they thought of themselves as Jewish.
But when the father wasn’t Jewish, the number dropped to 38 percent, and
when the mother wasn’t Jew, just 15 percent of the students said they were
Jewish, too.
“I think what was surprising was just how low the Jewish identification
was in these mixed marriage families.” Linda Sax is a professor of
education at UCLA. She directed the survey which was conducted over the
course of more than a decade and wasn’t actually about religious identity
specifically. But Professor Sax says the answers to questions about
religion were particularly striking, and deserve a more detailed study.
She says it’s obvious that interfaith marriage works against the
development of Jewish identity among children, but says it’s not clear at
this point why that’s the case. “This new study is necessary to get more
in-depth about their feelings about their religion. That’s something that
the study that I completed was not able to do. We didn’t have information
on how they feel about their religion, whether they have any concern about
their issues of identification, how comfortable they feel about their
lifelong goals. I think the new study’s going to cover some of that,” she
says.
Jay Rubin is executive director of Hilel, a national organization that
works with Jewish college students. Mr. Rubin says Judaism is more than a
religion, it’s an experience. And with that in mind, Hillel has
commissioned a study of Jewish attitudes towards Judaism. Researchers will
concentrate primarily on young adults, and those with two Jewish parents,
and those with just one, those who see themselves as Jewish and those who
do not. Jay Rubin says Hillel will then use this study to formulate a
strategy for making Judaism more relevant to the next generation of
American Jews.
51. The best title of this passage is__________.
A. Jewish and Non-Jewish in American
B. Jewish Identity in America
C. Judaism-a Religion?
D. College Jewish Students
52. Among the freshmen at UCLA__________thought themselves as Jewish.
A. most
B. 93% of those whose parents were both Jewish
C. 62% of those only whose father were Jewish
D. 15% of those only whose mother were Jewish
53. The phrase “interfaith marriage” in the Paragraph 3 refers to
the__________.
A. marriage of people based on mutual belief
B. marriage of people for the common faith
C. marriage of people of different religious faiths
D. marriage of people who have faith in each other
54. Which of the following statements is NOT true about professor Sax’s
research?
A. The research indicates that most students with only one Jewish parent
will not think themselves as Jewish.
B. The survey was carried out among Jewish Freshmen.
C. The research survey didn’t find out what and how these Jewish students
think about their religion.
D. The research presents a new perspective for the future study.
55. Which of the following is true according to the last paragraph?
A. Mr. Rubin is the founder of Hillel.
B. Mr. Rubin thinks that Judaism is not a religion and it’s an
experience.
C. Hillel is an organization concerned with Jewish college students in the
world.
D. Hillel has asked certain people to carry out a study about Jewish
attitudes towards Judaism.
Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:
Governments that want their people to prosper in the burgeoning world
economy should guarantee two basic rights: the right to private property
and the right to enforceable contracts, says Mancur Olson in his book
Power and Prosperity. Olson was an economics professor at the University
of Maryland until his death in 1998.
Some have argued that such rights are merely luxuries that wealthy
societies bestow, but Olson turns that argument around and asserts that
such rights are essential to creating wealth. “In comes are low in most of
the countries of the world, in short, because the people in those
countries do not have secure in dividual rights,” he says.
Certain simple economic activities, such as food gathering and making
handicrafts, rely mostly on individual labor; property is not necessary.
But more advanced activities, such as the mass production of goods,
require machines and factories and offices. This production is often
called capital-intensive, but it is really property-intensive, Olson
observes.
“No one would normally engage in capital-intensive production if he or she
did not have rights that kept the valuable capital from being taken by
bandits, whether roving or stationary,”he argues. “There is no private
property without government—individuals may have possessions, the way a
dog possesses a bone, but there is private property only if the society
protects and defends a private right to that possession against other
private parties and against the government as well.”
Would-be entrepreneurs, no matter how small, also need a government and
court system that will make sure people honor their contracts. In fact,
the banking systems relied on by developed nations are based on just such
an enforceable contract system. “We would not deposit our money in
banks...if we could not rely on the bank having to honor its contract with
us, and the bank would not be able to make the profits it needs to stay in
business if it could not enforce its loan contracts with borrowers,” Olson
writes.
Other economists have argued that the poor economies of Third World and
communist countries are the result of governments setting both prices and
the quantities of goods produced rather than letting a free market
determine them. Olson agrees there is some merit to this point of view,
but he argues that government intervention is not enough to explain the
poverty of these countries. Rather, the real problem is lack of individual
rights that give people incentive to generate wealth. “If a society has
clear and secure individual rights, there are strong incentives (刺激，动力）to
produce, invest, and engage in mutually advantageous trade, and therefore
at least some economic advance,” Olson concludes.
56. Which of the following is true about Olson?
A. He was a fiction writer.
B. He edited the book Power and Prosperity.
C. He taught economics at the University of Maryland.
D. He was against the ownership of private property.
57. Which of the following represents Olson’s point or view?
A. Protecting individual property rights encourages wealth building.
B. Only in wealthy societies do people have secure individual rights.
C. Secure individual rights are brought about by the wealth of the
society.
D. In some countries, people don’t have secure individual rights because
they’re poor.
58. What does Olson think about mass production?
A. It’s capital intensive.
B. It’s property intensive.
C. It relies on individual labor.
D. It relies on individual skills.
59. What is the basis for the banking system?
A. Contract system that can be enforced.
B. People’s willingness to deposit money in banks.
C. The possibility that the bank can make profits from its borrowers.
D. The fact that some people have surplus money while some need loans.
60. According to Olson, what is the reason for the poor economies of Third
World countries?
A. government intervention
B. lack of secure individual rights
C. being short of capital
D. lack of a free market

参考范文: Effect of Research Event on My Later Life and Work
The most unforgettable thing in my research career by now is a course
named aspects of translation that was given in the second semester when I
was a senior undergraduate student.
One of the reasons for which the course has left such a deep impression on
me is that it was the first time I learned to look at and study
translation from a completely new perspective, the perspective of
linguistics. Before taking that course, I though that translation was no
more than the mechanic practice of turning texts written in one language
into those in another and didn’t realize that it had anything to do with
linguistics, though, in retrospect, the link ought to be obvious for
linguistics is the science that studies language properly. It was very
fortunate for me to attend during the same semester the course
Introduction to Linguistics, which helped me pave the way for the study of
that critical course. Obvious as the link between the two disciplines was,
it was still a giant project to actually connect the two and the course
proved to be very brain-consuming. However, once the barriers collapsed,
the landscape altered and became much more open. I could appreciate many
beautiful scenes that I had never discovered before.
Encouraged by the first attempt at inter-disciplinary study, in my later
research and life I always try to bridge what I have learned in different
courses and different aspects of life, to fill them into my jigsaw of
knowledge about the world and myself and to complete it and perfect
myself.
