IV. Reading Comprehension ( 60 points)
Directions：There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is
followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers
marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter
on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Debate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring
long-lasting rewards，especially for people working with Western businesses. The
main activity of debate is presenting one' s opinion and supporting it with
evidence， such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive
communication.
Charles Lebeau helped create the "Discover Debate" method. He says debate
is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business.
Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion，reasons and support. "What
we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion
and how to interact (交流) with someone else' s opinion，rather than brush their
opinion aside. "
Debate skills are also important in selling a product，he says. In that
situation，the judges are the customers. "So on Monday，for example，one company
may come in and present their case to the customer and they" ll make as strong a
ease as they can. On Tuesday， the next day，another company will come in and
present their ease to the customer. Usually the party that can present the
strongest case wins”
Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words， it helps
students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone' s reasons and
evidence.lift-. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen
carefully to what other people are saying. Then， they look for the weak points
in someone else' s opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematic way
of questioning.
Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view.
Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind. "There' s an expression in
English：don' t criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I
think the wonderful thing about debate is， it puts us in another person' s
shoes. "
36. According to Paragraph 1，what is the purpose of debate? A. To bring
long-lasting material rewards.
B. To present evidence such as statistics and facts.
C. To respond to questions in a systematic way.
D. To persuade people to accept your opinions.
37. Why is debate important.
A. It helps people understand others better.
B. It allows people to present their opinions.
C. It develops one' s thinking and communicative competence. D. It gives
one the opportunity to brush others' opinion aside. 38. What does the underlined
word “case”in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Container. B. Evidence. C. Problem. D. Product.
39. What can debaters benefit from “walking in another person' s shoes”
.
A. Becoming more broad-minded.
B. Developing critical thinking.
C. Finding others' weak points.
D. Trying out others' methods.
Passage Two
We all love a hero， and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all.
You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone，
risking–and at times losing–their lives in the process.
Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups， or from
the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound，Labrador
Retriever，Newfoundland， German Shepherd，Golden Retriever，and Belgian
Malinois–all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their
amazing physical strength，loyalty，and their tendency for mental stability.
These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell–to better locate
lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly
trained animals，they serve in many different fields， including specialist
search， snow slide rescue，dead body location， and tracking.
To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a
search-and-rescue worker， a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to
intelligence and strength，the dog must be swift，confident，easily trainable，
adaptable， and have a high level of stamina (耐力) and endurance.
A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly
play during "down" time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.
A rescue dog goes through many， many hours of intensive training to be fit
for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take
from two to three years，working three to four hours a day，three to six
days a week，often in group，team-oriented sessions.
Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue
training， for instance， includes "air scenting"–where dogs are trained to smell
the air for the victim' s scent (气味) and then follow the scent to the person.
This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and
snow slide.
40.
Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__ A.
B. C. D.
41. What does "faint-hearted" in Paragraph 5 mean?? A. Courageous. B.
Cowardly. C. Energetic. D. Slow. 42. Which ability is most important for dogs to
rescue people trapped in snow?
A. Sharp hearing. B.
C. Extraordinary smelling. D. 43. What is the passage mainly Selection
process of rescue
Qualities and training of rescue dogs. Risks rescue dogs are faced
with.
Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.
Passage Three
Eating an apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away，but it does reduce the
amount of trips you make to the drug store per year. That ' s according to a new
study that investigates whether there' s any truth in the old saying.
A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis， of the University of
Michigan School of Nursing，asked 8，399 participants to answer survey questions
about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters， consuming at least 149g
of raw apple per day. The remaining 7，646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When
both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug
store per year，the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the
druggist for drugs. Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple
consumption，though. "Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the
doctor away. However，the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does
appear to use fewer prescription medications，" the study concludes.
Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely
to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do
not compete with oranges， they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing
vitamin C，which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8mg
of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit， an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily
recommended intake.
Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type
2 diabetes (二型糖尿病) ，improved lung function and a lower risk of colon (结肠)
cancer.
44. How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the
research?
A. 149. B. 7，646. C. 753. D. 8，399.
45. What is the conclusion of the study?
A. Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults' trips to the
doctor.
B. An apple a day does keep the doctor away.
C. Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.
D. A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.
46. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Apples are better than oranges.
B. Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system. C. Apples
can help cure certain diseases.
D. Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.
47. What can be described as the writing style of this passage? A.
Objective. B. Creative. C.subjective D.persuasive
Passage Four
Sometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government' s efforts to
improve schools：new standards and tests to be applied， strict teacher
evaluations， and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the
school employees， not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable
to solve problems or try new ideas–which is what fear does to us–research on
school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school
leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of
twelve Chicago public schools，Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive
social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school
improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.
Trust in schools comes down to one thing：psychological safety or safety to
speak one's mind，to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn't
working，to make collective decisions.
Yet this kind of safety doesn't come easily to schools. According to Bryk
and Schneider，the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly
and with integrity (正 直). The challenge is that our expectations are very
diverse based on our unique backgrounds.
At one school where I taught， each teacher had different expectations about
how much effort teachers should put into their work–a big difference between
the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening.
And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken， it becomes impossible for
others to live up to them.
We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person' s behavior.
As we all Imam，assumptions are often wrong. For example，parents and teachers my
think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement
rather than hat" s best for the students. don't feel psychologically safe to
question our assumptions and expectations，trust flies out the window and our
relationships suffer.
48. According to Paragraph 1，why does the author scratch his head?
A. Because he doesn't know what to do once schools are closed. B. Because
he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.
C. Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.
D. Because he is not in favor of the government' s reform efforts.
49. According to Bryk and Schneider，what was most important for successful
school improvement?
A. New standards and tests in schools.
B. Positive social relationships.
C. Strict teacher and student evaluations.
D. Assistance of the government.
50. What is meant by trust in school?
A. Freedom to express one' s views，
B. Extra effort teachers put into their work.
C. Independence of the teachers in schools.
D. Unconscious and unspoken expectations.
51. What does the author say about the assumptions made about the
intentions behind a person's behavior?
A. They should be trusted.
B. They are often bold.
C. They are often incorrect.
D. They should be encouraged.
Passage Five
An interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets
of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the
world.
The people in the five regions in Europe，Latin America， Asia and the US
that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small
role，but these folks also have strong social ties ，tightly-knit families and
lots of opportunities to exercise.
As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones， as described in
author Dan Buettner’s latest book，The Blue Zones Solution， we were struck by how
essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact， Buettner' s Blue Zones
Beverage Rule–a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of
studying these places–is：" Drink coffee for breakfast， tea in the afternoon，
wine at 5 p.m"
Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea.
Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea，as well as
foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break 1007 Some
components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke，heart disease and several
cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly
improve metabolism (新陈代谢).
If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria， the Greek Blue Zone in the
middle of the Aegean，you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead，
Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that
they have picked themselves that day–either rosemary， wild sage，
oregano，maijoram，mint or dandelion，all plants that may have anti-inflammatory
(消炎的) properties，which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria'
s very low dementia (痴呆) rate，since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the
disease.
52. What does the underlined word "centenarians" in Paragraph 1 refer
to?
A. People who have secret lifestyles.
B. People who enjoy physical exercise.
C. People who are one hundred years old or older.
D. People who carry the gene for being slim.
53. According to Paragraph 3，what is the recommended time for tea
drinking?
A. In the morning. B. Any time of a day.
C. In the early evening. D. In the afternoon.
54. What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?
A. To improve metabolism.
B. To lower blood pressure.
C. To lower life stress.
D. To improve social relationships.
55. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. Tea-Drinking Tips
B. Lifestyle Secrets of Ikarians
C. Tea-Drinking Ceremony in Okinawa
D. Blue Zones Solutions

Dear Tim，
Last weekend we went to the countryside to have a barbecue. We took
chicken，beef and some vegetable. Of course we didn’ t forget to take some fruits
and drinks.
We left home quite early in order to avoid the traffic jam. It took 1us two
hours to come to a nice place near a river. Then we began our rich
picnic，eating，talking，smiling and singing. We had a happy time. After having
barbecue，we played a game called truth or dare，It was very interesting，and we
didn't come back home until the night fell.
How are you doing recently? I am looking forward to your
reply.
Your sincerely，
Li Yuan
