Religious and private schools receive little or no support from public taxes in the United States, and, r 41 a result, are usually somewhat expensive to 42 .The largest group of religious schools in America 43 rby the Roman Catholic Church. While religious schools tend to be 44 rexpensive than private schools, there are usually some fees.

Each passage is followed 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 the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre. Questions 56 to 59 are based on the following passage: Scientists recently revealed an instinct in women intact and unaffected by the age of technology. Glancing through glossy art books Lee Salk noticed that four times out of five Mary is depicted holding the infant Jesus against her left breast. The Madonna sparked off a series of experiments and observations to determine on which side women hold their babies and why. First he determined that modern mothers still tend to hold their baby on the left. Of 255 right-handed mothers, 83% held the baby on the left. And out of 32 left-handed women, 78% held the baby on the left. As a control, women were watched emerging from supermarkets carrying baby-sized packages; the bundles were held with no side preference. Then, dental patients were given a large rubber ball to hold during treatment. The majority clutched the ball to their left side, even when it interfered with the dentist’s activities. This suggested that in times of stress objects are held against the left side. At that point an apparently contradictory phenomenon was observed. A large number of mothers who brought their premature babies to a follow-up clinic were 得 分 评卷人 4 seen to hold their babies against their right side. So, 115 mothers who had been separated from their babies for 24 hours after birth were observed for holding response. The experiments presented the baby directly to the mid-line of the mother’s body, and noted that the mothers of the group who had held their baby on the left had already had a baby from which they had not been separated after birth. The author suggested that “the time immediately after birth is a critical period when the stimulus of holding the baby releases a certain maternal response.” That is to say, she senses the baby is better off on her left. Left-handed holding enables the baby to hear the heart-beat— a sound associated with the security of the womb. In order to discover whether hearing the heart has a beneficial effect on the baby, the sound of a human heartbeat was played to 102 babies in a New York nursery for 4 days. A control group of babies was not exposed to heartbeats. The babies in the beat group gained markedly more weight and cried far less than the babies in the control group. 56. Why did Lee Salk watch women coming out of supermarkets? A) To see how they carried their babies. B) To see if they were left-handed. C) To see if they carried parcels and babies differently. D) To control them. 57. The word “critical” in line 1, paragraph 6 means __________ . A) very serious B)extremely important C)very dangerous D) risky 58. What is the reason given for the gain in the weight of the babies in the “beat group”? A) The sound of the human heartbeat reminds the baby of the security of the womb. B) The sound of the human heartbeat resembles that of the baby’s own heartbeat. C) The sound of the human heartbeat resembles that of the mother’s heartbeat. D) The sound of the human heartbeat is regular and rhythmical. 59. Salk’s experiments proved that __________ . A) mothers have an instinct to hold their babies on the left immediately after birth B) mothers hold their babies on the left only at times of stress C) mothers of premature babies do not have the instinct to hold their babies on the left D) mothers find it more comfortable to carry their babies on the left because the heart is on that side Questions 60 to 63 are based on the following passage: There are many theories about the beginning of drama in ancient Greece. The one most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that drama evolved from ritual. The argument for this view goes as follows. In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world, even the seasonal changes, as unpredictable, and they sought, through various means, to control these unknown and fearful powers. Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then retained and repeated until they hardened into fixed rituals. Eventually stories arose which explained or veiled the mysteries of the rites. As time passed some rituals were abandoned, but the stories, later called myths, persisted and provided material for art and drama. Those who believe that drama evolved out of ritual also argue that those rites contained the seed of theater because music, dance, masks, and costumes were almost always used. Furthermore, a suitable site had to be provided for performances, and when the entire community did not participate, a clear division was usually made between the “acting area” and the “auditorium”. In addition, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in the enactment of rites, religious leaders usually assumed that task. Wearing masks and costumes, they often impersonated other people, animals, or supernatural beings and mimed the desired effect — success in hunt or ballet, the coming rain, the revival of the sun — as an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representations were separated from religious activities. Another theory traces the theater’s origin from the human interest in storytelling. According to this view, tales (about the hunt, war, of other feats) are gradually elaborated, at first through the use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a narrator and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person. A closely related theory traces theater to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic of that are the imitation of animal movements and sounds. 60. An appropriate title of the passage would be . A) “The Origins of Theater” B) B)“The Role of Ritual in Modern Dance” C) “The Importance of Storytelling” D) “The Variety of Early Religious Activities” 61. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a common element of theater and ritual? A) Dance. B) Magic. C) Music D) Costumes. 62. Which of the following ideas does the passage support? A) No one is sure about the origin of theater. 5 B) Myths were the ultimate origin of drama. C) Storytelling is an important part of drama. D) All religions came from ritual activities. 63. According to the passage, what is the main difference between ritual and drama? A) Ritual uses music whereas drama does not. B) Ritual is shorter than drama. C) Ritual requires fewer performers than drama does. D) Ritual has a religious purpose and drama does not. Questions 64 to 69 are based on the following passage: When British voters go to the polls during General Elections to decide who will govern them they usually have a choice of at least three candidates who will each represent one of the three main political parties in Britain today. The Labor Party is the party of the left, the Tory or Conservative Party represents the right and between the two, with politics and opinions of its own, is the smaller Liberal Party. Britain is divided into over 600 political units known as “constituencies”, each with its own candidates who stand for Parliament hoping to be elected (or re-elected) with large majorities. The cities and large towns are themselves divided into constituencies and they also choose the Members of Parliament (MPs) who will represent their views in the Houses of Parliament at Westminster. Here, in the “House”, the government of the day led by its Prime Minister and his Cabinet — a team of specially selected ministers — carries out its duties of governing the country. Various proposals are put forward for debate and discussion and these may, eventually, become part of the law of the land. The government in office has to face the criticism of the other parties which are in opposition. This is the sort of democratic process that the majority of British people seem to favor. Her Majesty’s Government is watched over by Her Majesty’s Opposition, and thus a certain balance of power is maintained. Decisions are made by a majority vote and this, of course, is where the other parties, the Liberals, the National and Regional parties (such as the Scottish or Welsh National Party), and other independent parties can exercise their influence. Some issues may be decided on a mere handful of votes. 64. According to the passage, the Liberal Party could be described as . A) a party with policies of its own C) the only small party with independent views C) a very influential party D) a small party with no central policy 65. A constituency is . A) a place where the General Election is held B) a political area found only in the larger towns B) an area represented by an MP in Parliament D) an area of the country 66. How can the other parties exercise their influence in Parliament, according to the passage? A) By remaining independent. B) By supporting various proposals put forward by the major parties. C) Through the Members of Parliament they have chosen. D)Through their combined voting power. 67. The Cabinet is . A) the Prime Minister’s private office B) a ministerial group assisting the Prime Minister B) any group of MPs with special responsibility D) a specially chosen team of ministers from all three political parties 68. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A) The British voters usually have a choice among at least three candidates. B) The three major parties of Britain are the Labor Party, The Tory party, and the Conservative Party. C) The government in office has to face various kinds of criticism from the opposition parties. D) The result of the vote is decided by the opinion of the majority of voters. 69. The appropriate title for this passage is . A) The British Voting System B) British Voters C) The Three Major Parties of Britain D) Her Majesty’s Government Questions 70 to 75 are based on the following passage: Parks and similar recreation areas act as a kind of barrier between residential and industrial areas. The government is making efforts to preserve this “Green Belt” to halt the spread of industrial growth and excessive suburban “sprawl” into the surrounding countryside. Planning permission to build a new factory complex or housing estate is often refused for this reason. People nowadays have become very conscious of the threat which modern living poses to our natural environment. They are becoming concerned about the quality of present-day life and are giving vigorous support to conservation policies which aim to safeguard the countryside that is still untouched, and to clean and restore what has already been spoiled. This involves clearing town centers of all motor traffic with its polluting fumes and gases, preventing agricultural land from 6 being sold to unscrupulous property developers, and launching a powerful campaign against the serious chemical pollution of many of our rivers, lakes and coastal waters. There is even some talk about making our elaborate canal system viable again for the transportation of goods such as coal, which would then lessen the amount of heavy traffic on our already overloaded roads. Neither is it all empty talk; for the first time in decades fish are being caught in the lower reaches of the Thames. For the conservationists this represents a real victory and gives them well-deserved satisfaction. 70. Motor traffic is banned from many town centers because . A) there is too much traffic already B)it contaminates the air with fumes and gases C) the smell of the fumes and gases is terrible D) it is noisy and dangerous 71. The “Green Belt” in line 2 refers to . A) the surrounding countryside B)the trees planted along the city roads C) recreational areas D) industrial areas 72. The fact that fish are now being caught in the lower reaches of the Thames shows that . A) the campaign to clean up rivers has brought about a change in the natural environment B) the government has no interest in clearing up the middle and upper reaches of the river C) the rest of the river is still polluted D) there are no fish in the middle and upper reaches of the river 73. What threat does modern living pose to our natural environment? A) The rising cost of living. B) The excessive growth of suburban areas. C) The rapid expansion of industry. D) The deterioration of the quality of life. 74. The campaign against serious pollution of rivers was launched because . A) the government wanted to preserve the cleanliness of the rivers B) the government wanted to raise fish in the rivers C) the government wanted to lessen the traffic burdens on the road D) the government wanted to safeguard the countryside 75. According to the passage, in what other way can the canal system be used? A) As a fishing pond. B) As a boating center. C) As a means to carry goods. D) As a recreational area.
