18、满分 40分） A Science is a major topic in our culture. Since it touches almost every field of our life, educated people need at least some knowledge with its structure and operation. They should also have an understanding of the scientific subculture in which scientists live and the kinds of people they
19、 are. An understanding of general characteristics of science as well as specific scientific ideas is easier to obtain if one knows something about the things that excite and discourage the scientist. This book is written for the person whose knowledge with science is not complete; for the person who
20、 has been presented with science as a musty（发霉的）storehouse of dried facts; for the person who sees the chief objective of science as the production of tricks; and for the person who views the scientists as some sort of magician. The book can be used to add to a course in any science, to come with an
21、y course that attempts to give an understanding of the modern world, or simply to provide a better understanding of science. We hope this book will lead readers to a broader view on scientific attitudes and a more realistic view of what science is, who scientists are, and what they do. It will give
22、them an idea and understanding of the relationship between science and our culture and an appreciation of the roles science may play in our culture. Besides, readers may learn to appreciate the relationship between scientific views and some of the values and philosophies（哲学）that are deep in our cult
23、ure. 41. According to the passage, scientific subculture means _. A. scientific society B. technical groups C. complex situation D. knowledge system 42. We need to know something about science because _. A. scientists have specific scientific ideas B. science affects almost every field of our life C
24、. it is easier to understand general characteristics of science D. it is not easy to understand the things that excite and discourage scientists 43. The book mentioned in this passage is written for readers who _. A. are scientists making influential contributions B. want to have a little understand
25、ing of science C. want to break the male-controlled world D. have a misunderstanding about science 44. This passage most probably is _. A. the review of a book B. the concluding part of a book C. the information added to a book D. the introduction of a book 45. According to the passage, we can infer
26、 that the book probably is _. A. interesting B. serious C. realistic D. humorous B London-A morning train rides away, across the channel. English kids discuss the Liverpools football team in a Paris pub. Some Parisians have started to travel to work in London. In the 19th century, Charles Dickens co
27、mpared the two cities, London and Paris, in A Tale of Two Cities. These days, it might be A tale of One City. As there are few jobs at home over recent years, perhaps 250,000 Frenchmen moved across the channel. With an undersea tunnel, they could travel between cities in three hours. The European Un
28、ion freed them from immigration and customs. Paris, rich in beauty, is more stylish. But London feels more full of life, and more fun until the pubs shut down. “For me, the difference is that London is real, alive,“ said Trevor Wheeler, a financial expert.xkb1 Chantal Jaouen, a professional designer
29、, agrees. “I am French, but Ill stay in London, she said. There is, of course, the other view. Julie Lenoux is a student who moved to London two years ago. “I think people laugh more in Paris,“ she said. “Both cities have changed beyond recognition,“ said Larry Collins, an author and sometimes a Lon
30、doner. Like most people who know both cities well, he finds the two now fit together comfortably. “I first fell in love with Paris in the 1950s. Things are so much more ordered, and life is better.“ But certainly not cheaper. In some parts of London, rents can be twice those on Avenue Foch in Paris.
31、 Deciding between London and Paris requires a lifestyle choice. Like Daphne Benoit, a French journalism student with perfect English, many young people are happy to be close enough so they dont have to choose. “I love Paris, my little neighbourhood, the way I can walk around a centre, but life is to
32、o organized , “she said. “In London, you can be whoever you want. No one cares.“ 46. It can be inferred that _. A. Paris and London are the two biggest cities in the world B. in the 19th century, Dickens told his stories in the two cities C. London and Paris used to be separated D. Liverpool is a bi
33、g city in France 47. According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE? A. People feel it difficult to find a job in Paris. B. People cant travel to London without a passport. C. People can travel to London without a passport. D. People can find any job in London. 48. According to this passa
34、ge we know that _. A. Parisians enjoy English food more than their own B. Londoners seldom travel to Paris on holidays C. both cities have their advantages D. young people prefer to live in London 49. Which city is better to live in according to the passage? A. Paris. B. London. C. Both cities. D. I
35、t just depends. 50. Whats the meaning of the last sentence? A. People can do everything in London. B. People will feel lonely in London. C. People in London enjoy living in different ways. D. People in London enjoy a lawless life. C Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill betwe
36、en the nations and that if countries play games together, they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international competitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred（憎恨） . There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent year
37、s the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests. One country received its second-p
38、lace medals with visible anger after the hockey(曲棍球) final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents victory was unfair. Their manager was i
39、n great anger when he said, “This wasnt hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension（停赛） of the team for at least three years. Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport i
40、s played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages aggressive patriotism(爱国主义). 51. Acc
41、ording to the author, recently the Olympic Games have _. A. created goodwill between the nations B. brought about only false national pride C. hardly showed any international friendship D. put an end to misunderstanding and hatred 52. The underlined word “disallowed”(in Paragraph 2) means “_”. A. pe
42、rmitted to pass B. considered as reasonable C. won by the other side D. refused to accept 53. What did the manager mean by saying, “Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished”? A. His team would no longer take part in international games. B. Hockey and the Federation are both ruined
43、 by the unfair decisions. C. There should be no more Hockey matches organized by the Federation. D. The Federation should break up. 54. The author gives the example in paragraph 2 to show _. A. how false national pride led to undesirable incidents in international games B. that sportsmen are often a
44、gainst the final decisions C. that competitiveness in the games discourages international friendship D. that unfair decisions are common in the Olympic Games 55. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage? A. The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved. B. Athletes should compete as in
45、dividuals in the Olympic Games. C. A game should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game. D. More and more athletes will compete for their own honor. Dxkb 1 We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us dont do a very good job. This article gives
46、some suggestions on how to give an effective speech. So, you have to give a speech- and youre terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank goodness, its over. Im just no good at public spea
47、king. I hope I never have to do that again. ” Cheer up! It doesnt have to be that bad. Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of time doing your research. Then spend plenty of time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they will help you make your points more clearly. Never forget your audi
