  Part II&&&&&&&&&&&&& Reading Comprehension&&&&&&&& (35 minutes)
  Passage One
  Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
  "There is a senseless notion that children grow up and leave home when they' re 18, and
  the truth is far from that, "says sociologist Larry Bumpass of the University of Wisconsin. Today, unexpected numbers of young adults are living with their parents. "There is a major shift in
  the middle class, "declares sociologist Allan Schnaiberg of Northwestern University, whose son,
  19, moved back in after an absence of eight months.
  Analysts cite a variety of reasons for this return to the next. The marriage age is rising, a
  condition that makes home and its pleasantness particularly attractive to young peopole. A high
  divorce rate and a declining remarriage rate are sending economically pressed and emotionally
  hurt survivors back to parental shelters. For some, the expense of an away - from - home college
  education has become so excessively great that many students now attend local schools. Even after graduation, young people find their wings clipped by skyrocketing housing costs.
  Living at home, says Knighton, a school teacher, continues to give her security and moral
  support. Her mother agreed, "It' s ridiculous for the kids to pay all that money for rent. It
  makes sense for kids to stay at home. "But sharing the family home requires adjustments for all.
  There are the hassles over bathrooms, telephones and privacy. Some families, however, manage
  the delicate balancing act. But for others, it proves too difficult. Michelle Del Turco, 24, has been
  home three times- and left three times. "What I considered a social drink, my dad considered
  an alcohol problem," she explains. "He never liked anyone I dated, so I either had to hide away
  or meet them at friends' houses."
  Just how long should adult children live with their parents before moving on? Most psychologists feel lengthy homecomings are a mistake. Children, struggling to establish separate identities, can end up with "a sense of inadequacy, defeat and failure." And aging parents, who
  should be enjoying some financial and personal freedom, find themselves stuck with responsibilities. Many agree that brief visits, however, can work beneficially.
  21. There was apparently a trend in the U. S.
  A) for young adults to leave their parents and live independently
  B) for middle class young adults to stay with their parents
  C) for married young adults to move back home after a lengthy absence
  D) for young adults to get jobs nearby in order to live with their parents
  22. Which of the following does not account for young adults returning to the nest?
  A) Young adults find housing costs too high.
  B) Young adults are psychologically and intellectually immature.
  C) Young adults seek parental comfort and moral support.
  D) Quite a number of young adults attend local schools.
  23. One of the disadvantages of young adults returning to stay with their parents is that
  A) there will inevitably be inconveniences in everyday life
  B) the parents have to spend more money keeping a bigger family going
  C) the young adults tend to be overprotected by their parents
  D) public opinion is against young adults staying with their parents
  24. The word "hassles" in the passage (Line 4, Para. 3) probably means
  A) agreements&&&&& B) worries&&&&&&&& C) disadvantages& D) quarrels
  25. According to the passage what is the best for both parents and children?
  A) They should adjust themselves to sharing the family expenses.
  B) Children should leave their parents when they are grown- up.
  C) Adult children should visit their parents from time to time.
  D) Parents should support their adult children when they are in trouble.
  Passage Two
  Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
  The word conservation has a thrifty(节俭) meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to
  leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share the enjoyment.
  Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of
   most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures
  were "limitless" and "inexhaustible". Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or
  nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which
  means that , as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the others.
  Fifty year ago nature study was not par scientific forestry was a new
  I timber was still cheap Because it could be brought in any quantity fr
  soil destruction and river floods were n nobody had yet studied long- term
  climatic cycles in relatio even the word "conservation" had nothing of the
  meaning that it has for us today.
  For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone'
  s daily life. To know about the water table(水位) in the ground is just as important to us as a
  knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds (上游源头森
  林地带集水区) need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and
  rivers must Be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We
  need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the
  importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man' s fellow creatures on this
  planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume above the earth.
  In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.
  26. The author's attitude towards the current situation in the exploitation of natural resources
  A) positive&&&&&&&&& B) neutral&&&&&&&& C) suspicious&&&& D) critical
  27. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that
  A) they had no idea about scientific forestry
  B) they had little or no sense of environmental protection
  C) they were not aware of the significance of nature study
  D) they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials
  28. It can be inferred from the passage that earlier generations didn't realize
  A) the interdependence of water, soil, and living things
  B) the importance of the proper land use
  C) the harmfulness of soil destruction and river floods
  D) the extraordinary rapid growth of population
  29. With a view to correcting the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that
  A) we plant more trees
  B) we be taught environmental science, as well as the science of plants
  C) environmental education be directed toward everyone
  D) we return to nature
  30. What does the author imply by saying "living space ——' is figured -" also in cubic volume
  above the earth" (Lines 8 - 9, Para. 3) ?
  A) Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smaller.
  B) Our living space should be measured in cubic volume.
  C) We need to take some measures to protect space.
  D) We must create better living conditions for both birds and animals.
  Passage Three
  Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
  Judging from recent surveys, most experts in sleep behavior agree that there is virtually an
  epidemic(流行病) of sleepiness in the nation. "I can't think of a single study that hasn't
  found Americans getting less sleep than they ought to," says Dr. David. Even people who think
  they are sleeping enough would probably be better off with more rest.
  The beginning of our sleep - deficit (睡眠不足) crisis can be traced to the invention of the
  light bulb a century ago. From diary entries and other personal accounts from the 18th and 19th
  centuries sleep scientists have reached the conclusion that the average person used to sleep
  about 9.5 hours a night. "The best sleep habits once were forced on us, when we had nothing to
  do in the evening down on the farm, and it was dark. "By the 1950s and 1960s, that sleep
  schedule had been reduced dramatically, to between 7.5 and eight hours, and most people had
  to wake to an alarm clock. "People cheat on their sleep, and they don't even realize they' re doing it, "says Dr. David. "They think they' re okay because they can get by on 6.5 hours, when
  they really need 7.5, eight or even more to feel ideally vigorous."
  Perhaps the most merciless robber of sleep, researchers say, is the complexity of the day.
  Whenever pressures from work, family, friends and community mount, many people consider
  sleep the least expensive item on his programme. "In our society, you' re considered dynamic if
  you say you only need 5.5 hours' sleep. If you've got to get 8.5 hours, people think you lack
  drive and ambition."
  To determine the consequnces of sleep deficit, researchers have put subjects through a set
  of psychological and performance tests requiring them, for instance, to add columns of numbers
  or recall a passage read to them only minutes earlier. "We' ye found that if you' re in sleep
  deficit, performance suffers, "says Dr. David. "Short - term memory is weakened, as are abilities
  to make decisions and to concentrate."
  31. People in the 18th and 19th centuries used to sleep about 9.5 hours a night because they
  A) no drive and ambition&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B) no electric lighting
  C) the best sleep habits&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& D) nothing to do in the evening
  32. According to Dr. David, Americans
  A) are ideally vigorous even under the pressure of life
  B) often neglect the consequences of sleep deficit
  C) do not know how to relax themselves properly
  D) can get by on 6.5 hours of sleep
  33. Many Americans believe that __
  A) sleep is the first thing that can be sacrificed when one is busy
  B) they need more sleep to cope with the complexities of everyday life
  C) to sleep is something one can do at any time of the day
  D) enough sleep promotes people's drive and ambition
  34. The word "subjects" (Line 1, Para.4)refers to
  A) the performance tests used in the study of sleep deficit
  B) special branches of knowledge that are being studied
  C) people whose behavior or reactions are being studied
  D) the psychological consequences of sleep deficit
  35. It can be concluded from the passage that one should sleep as many hours as is necessary to
  A) improve one's memory dramatically
  B) by considered dynamic by other people
  C) maintain one's daily schedule
  D) feel energetic and perform adequately
  Passage Four
  Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
  The concept of personal choice in relation to health behaviors is an important one. An estimated 90 percent of all illnesses may be preventable if individuals would make sound personal
  health choices based upon current medical knowledge. We all enjoy our freedom of choice and do
  not like to see it restricted when it is within the legal and moral boundaries of society. The
  structure of American society allows us to make almost all our own personal decisions that may
  concern our health. If we so desire, we can smoke, drink excessively, refuse to wear seat belts,
  eat whatever foods we want, and live a completely sedentary life - style without any exercise.
  The freedom to make such personal decisions is a fundamental aspect of our society, although
  the wisdom of these decisions can be questioned. Personal choices relative to health often cause a
  difficulty. As one example, a teenager may know the facts relative to smoking cigarettes and
  health but may be pressured by friends into believing it is the socially accepted thing to do.
  A multitude of factors, both inherited and environmental, influence the development of
  health - related behaviors, and it is beyond the scope of this text to discuss all these factors as
  they may affect any given individual. However, the decision to adopt a particular health- related
  behavior is usually one of personal choice. There are healthy choices and there are unhealthy
  choices. In discussing the morals of personal choice, Fries and Crapo drew a comparison. They
  suggest that to knowingly give oneself over to a behavior that has a statistical probability of
  shortening life is similar to attempting suicide. Thus, for those individuals who are interested in
  preserving both the quality and quantity of life, personal health choices should reflect those behaviors that are associated with a statistical probability of increased vitality and longevity.
  36. The concept of personal choice concerning health is important because
  A) personal health choices help cure most illnesses
  B) it helps raise the level of our medical knowledge
  C) it is essential to personal freedom in American society
  D) wrong decisions could lead to poor health
  37. To "live a completely sedentary life - style" (Line 7, Para. 1 ) in the passage means
  A) to "live an inactive life"
  B) to "live a decent life"
  C) to "live a life with complete freedom"
  D) to "live a life of vice"
  38. Sound personal health choice is often difficult to make because
  A) current medical knowledge is still insufficient
  B) there are many factors influencing our decisions
  C) few people are willing to trade the quality of life for the quantity of life
  D) people are usually influenced by the behavior of their friends
  39. To knowingly allow oneself to pursue unhealthy habits is compared by Fries and Crapo to
  A) improving the quality of one's life
  B) limiting one's personal health choice
  C) deliberately ending one's life
  D) breaking the rules of social behavior
  40. According to Fries and Crapo sound health choices should be based on
  A) personal decisions&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& B) society's laws
  C) statistical evidence&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&& D) friends' opinions
