　　Passage One

　　Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

　　One reason is that out at sea, waves moving in one direction almost alwaysrun into waves moving in a different direction. The two sets of waves tend tocancel each other out. Another reason is that water is shallower near theshore. As a wave gets closer to land, the shallow bottom helps reduce itsstrength.

　　But thepower of waves striking the shore can still be very great. During a wintergale, waves

　　sometimes strike the shorewith the force of 6,000 pounds for each square foot. That means a wave.

　　25 feet high and 500 feetalong its face, may strike the shore with a force of 75 million pounds.

　　(91) Yetthe waves, no matter how big or how violent, affect only the surface of thesea.

　　During the most raging storms, the water ahundred fathoms (600 feet) beneath the surface is just as calm as on a daywithout a breath of wind.

(92) Becausewe live in a democratic nation, whose citizens make policies for the nation,large numbers of us must be educated to understand, to support, and whennecessary, to judge the work of experts. The public school must educateboth producers and users of scientific services.

　　Ineducation, there should be a good balance among the branches of knowledge thatcontribute to effective thinking and wise judgment. Such balance is defeated bytoo much emphasis on any one field. The question of balance involves not onlythe relation of the natural sciences, the social sciences, and the arts butalso relative emphases among the natural sciences themselves.

　　Similarly, we must have a balancebetween current and classical knowledge. The attention of the public iscontinually drawn to new possibilities in scientific fields and the discoveryof new knowledge; these should not be allowed to turn our attention away fromthe sound, established materials that form the basis of courses for beginners.

　　Passage Four

　　Questions 36 to 40 are based on the followingpassage.

　　Do you realize that you have made a statement? Hold the glance for a secondlonger, and you have made a different statement. Hold it for 3 seconds, and themeaning has changed again. For every social situation, there is a permissibletime that you can hold a person’s gaze without being intimate, rude oraggressive. If you are on an elevator, what gaze-time are you permitted? Toanswer this question, consider what you typically do. You very likely giveother passengers a quick glance to size them up and to assure them that you meanno threat. (95) Since being close to another person signals the possibilityof interaction, you need to emit a signal telling others you want to be leftalone. So you cut off eye contact, what sociologist Erving Goffman calls “adimming of the lights”. You look down at the floor, at the indicator lights,anywhere but into another passenger’s eyes. Should you break the rule againststaring at a stranger on an elevator, you will make the other personexceedingly uncomfortable, and you are likely to feel a bit strange yourself.

　　If you hold eye contact for more than3 seconds, what are you telling another person? Much depends on the person andsituation. For instance, a man and a woman communicate interest in this matter.They typically gaze at each other for about 3 seconds at a time, then droptheir eyes down for 3 seconds, before letting their eyes meet again. But if oneman gives another man a 3-second-plus stare, he signals “I know you”. I aminterested in you” or “You look peculiar and I am curious about you. “This typeof stare often produces hostile feelings.

　　36. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that_______

　　A. every glance has its significance

　　B. staring at a person is an expression of interest

　　C. a gaze longer than 3 seconds is unacceptable

　　D. a glance conveys more meaning than words

　　37. If a person wants to be left alone on an elevator,the best thing to do is

　　A. tolook into another passenger’s eyes

　　B. to avoid eye contact with other passengers

　　C. to signal that he isnot a threat to them

　　D. to keep a certain distance from other passengers

　　38. The phrase“ a dimming of the lights” most probablymeans ______

　　A. closing one’s eyes B. turning off thelights

　　C. ceasing to glance at others D.reducing gaze-time to the minimum

　　39. If one is looked at by a stranger for toolong, he tends to feel ______

　　A. depressed B. uneasy C. curious D. amazed

　　40. The passage is mainly about ______

　　A. the limitation of eye contacts

　　B. the exchange of ideas through eye contacts

　　C. proper behavior in different situation

　　D.the role of eye contact in interpersonal communication

　　Part III Cloze (15 minutes 10%)

　　choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required tochoose the one that best fills into the passage

　　and mark the corresponding letteron the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

　　45 greenhouse gases neverrise beyond their present level, temperatures and sea levels will continue 46 foranother century or more because of a time 47 in the oceans' response toatmospheric temperatures, say researchers.

　　This time lag means policymakers cannotafford to wait to tackle climate change 48 its consequences become painful, because 49 thenthey will already be committed 50 further change, they urge."The feeling is that if things are getting bad, you 51 thestop button. But even if you 52 , the climate continues to change,"says Gerald Meehl, a climatologist.

　　But even an optimistic scenario predictsthat 53 temperatures would continue to rise 54 between 0. 4℃ and 0. 6℃overthe next century. That increase is 55 to the increase in duringthe 20th century.

　　And because water expands as it 56 this time lag in temperature will continue topush sea level 57 . Meehl's models predict that thermalexpansion alone would make sea levels rise by about 11 centimeters over thenext century, even if greenhouse gases were held 58 2,000 levels. The real rise would almostcertainly be more, he says, because his models do not include the effect of 59 ofglaciers and icecaps, which will be 60 rapid in a warmer world.
