PartIII                   Reading Comprehension                (35 minutes)SYT大学英语四级考试网
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some SYT大学英语四级考试网
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.SYT大学英语四级考试网
Passage OneSYT大学英语四级考试网
Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Long after the 1998 World Cup was won, disappointed fans were still cursing the SYT大学英语四级考试网
disputed refereeing (裁判) decisions that denied victory to their team. A researSYT大学英语四级考试网
cher was appointed to study the performance of some top referees.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    The researcher organized an experimental tournament (锦标赛) involving four youth teams. Each match lasted an hour, divided into three periods of 20 minutes during which different referees were in charge.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Observers noted down the referees' errors, of which there were 61 over the tournSYT大学英语四级考试网
ament. Converted to a standard match of 90 minutes, each referee made almost 23 SYT大学英语四级考试网
mistakes, a remarkably high number.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    The researcher then studied the videotapes to analyse the matches in detail. SurSYT大学英语四级考试网
prisingly, he found that errors were more likely when the referees were close to the incident. When the officials got it right, they were, on average, 17 meters away from the action. The average distance in the case of errors was 12 meters.The research shows the optimum (最佳的) distance is about 20 meters.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    There also seemed to be an optimum speed. Correct decisions came when the referees were moving at a speed of about 2 meters per second. The average speed for errors was 4 meters per second.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    If FIFA, football's international ruling body, wants to improve the standard of SYT大学英语四级考试网
refereeing at the next World Cup, it should encourage referees to keep their eyes on the action from a distance, rather than rushing to keep up with the ball,the researcher argues.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    He also says that FIFA's insistence that referees should retire at age 45 may beSYT大学英语四级考试网
misguided. If keeping up with the action is not so important, their physical condition is less critical.SYT大学英语四级考试网

51. The experiment conducted by the researcher was meant to _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) review the decisions of referees at the 1998 World CupSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) analyse the causes of errors made by football refereesSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) set a standard for football refereeingSYT大学英语四级考试网
52. The number of refereeing errors in the experimental matches was _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) slightly above average    B) higher than in the 1998 World CupSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) quite unexpected          D) as high as in a standard matchSYT大学英语四级考试网
53. The findings of the experiment show that _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) errors are more likely when a referee keeps close to the ballSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) the farther the referee is from the incident, the fewer the errorsSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) the more slowly the referee runs, the more likely will errors occurSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) errors are less likely when a referee stays in one spotSYT大学英语四级考试网
54. The word "officials" (Line 2, Para. 4) most probably refers to _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) the researchers involved in the experimentSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) the inspectors of the football tournamentSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) the referees of the football tournamentSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) the observers at the site of the experimentSYT大学英语四级考试网
55. What is one of the possible conclusions of the experiment?SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) The ideal retirement age for an experienced football referee is 45.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) Age should not be the chief consideration in choosing a football referee.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) A football referee should be as young and energetic as possible.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    D)An experienced football referee can do well even when in poor physical condition.SYT大学英语四级考试网
Passage TwoSYT大学英语四级考试网
Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:SYT大学英语四级考试网
    While still in its early stages, welfare reform has already been judged a great SYT大学英语四级考试网
success in many states ?a at least in getting people off welfare. It's estimatedSYT大学英语四级考试网
that more than 2 million people have left the rolls since 1994.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    In the past four years, welfare rolls in Athens County have been eut in half. But 70 percent of the people who left in the past two years took jobs that paid less than $6 an hour. The result: The Athens County poverty rate still remains at more than 30 percent--twice the national average.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    For advocates (代言人)for the poor, that's an indication much more needs to be done.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    "More people are getting jobs, but it's not making their lives any better," says Kathy Lairn,a policy analyst at the Center on Budget and Policy Pricorities in Washington.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A center analysis of US Census data nationwide found that between 1995 and 1996,SYT大学英语四级考试网
a greater percentage of single, femalea2headed households were earning money on their own, but that average income for these households actually went down.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    but for many, the fact that poor people are able to support themselves almost asSYT大学英语四级考试网
well without government aid as they did with it is in itself a huge victory.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    "Welfare was a poison. It was a toxin (毒素) that was poisoning the family," says Robert Rector, a welfarea2reform policy analyst. "The reform is changing the moral climate in lowa2income communities. It's beginning to rebuild the work ethic (道德观),which is much more important."SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Mr. Rector and others argued that once "the habit of dependency is cracked," then the country can make other policy changes aimed at improving living standards.SYT大学英语四级考试网

56. From the passage, it can be seen that the author _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) believes the reform has reduced the government's burdenSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) insists that welfare reform is doing little good for the poorSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) is overenthusiastic about the success of welfare reformSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) considers welfare reform to be fundamentally successfulSYT大学英语四级考试网
57. Why aren't people enjoying better lives when they have jobs?SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) Because many families are divorced.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) Because government aid is now rare.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) Because their wages are low.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) Because the cost of living is rising.SYT大学英语四级考试网
58. What is worth noting from the example of Athens County is that _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) greater efforts should be made to improve people's living standardsSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) 70 percent of the people there have been employed for two yearsSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) 50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfareSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) the living standards of most people are going downSYT大学英语四级考试网
59. From the passage we know that welfare reform aims at _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) saving welfare fundsSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) rebuilding the work ethicSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) providing more jobsSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) cutting government expensesSYT大学英语四级考试网
60. According to the passage, before the welfare reform was carried out, _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) the poverty rate was lowerSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) average living standards were higherSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) the average worker was paid higher wagesSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) the poor used to rely on government aidSYT大学英语四级考试网
Passage ThreeSYT大学英语四级考试网
Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Americans are proud of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general. Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) Clothes. People have be come conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform. The  television repairman who wears a uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes. Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform. What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity(身份) than to step out of uniform?SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes. They save on laundry bills. They are tax-deductible(可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement. When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems. Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes. Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.SYT大学英语四级考试网

61. It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) still judge a man by his clothesSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) hold the uniform in such high regardSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) enjoy having a professional identitySYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniformSYT大学英语四级考试网
62. People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) suggests quality workSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) discards his social identitySYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) appears to be more practicalSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) looks superior to a person in civilian clothesSYT大学英语四级考试网
63. The chief function of a uniform is to _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) provide practical benefits to the wearerSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) make the wearer catch the public eyeSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) inspire the wearer's confidence in himselfSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) provide the wearer with a professional identitySYT大学英语四级考试网
64. According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) are usually helpfulSYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) have little or no individual freedomSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) tend to lose their individualitySYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) enjoy greater popularitySYT大学英语四级考试网
65. The best title for this passage would be _______.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    A) Uniforms and SocietySYT大学英语四级考试网
    B) The Importance of Wearing a UniformSYT大学英语四级考试网
    C) Practical Benefits of Wearing a UniformSYT大学英语四级考试网
    D) Advantages and Disadvantages of UniformsSYT大学英语四级考试网
Passage FourSYT大学英语四级考试网
Question 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties.SYT大学英语四级考试网
Those of us with strong support systems appear betterable to cope with major lifeSYT大学英语四级考试网
changes and daily hassles(困难). People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those withou such ties.Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off(挡开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.SYT大学英语四级考试网
    Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is streng thened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移...注意力)us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support ?a financial aid, material resources, and needed services -- that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.SYT大学英语四级考试网

Passage OneSYT大学英语四级考试网
    There are three groups of English learners; beginners, intemediate leaners, and learners of special English. Beginners need to learn the basics of English. Students who have reached an intermediate level benefit from learning general En glish skills. But what about students who want to lean specialist English for th eir work or profess-SYT大学英语四级考试网
inal life? Most students, who fit into this third group have a clear idea about what they want to lean. A bank clerk, for example, wants to u se this specialist vocabulary and technical terms of finance. But for teachers, deciding how to teach specialist English is not always so easy. For a start, the variety is enormous. Every field from airline polots to secretaries has its own vocabulary and technical terms. Teachers also need to have an up-to-date knowle dge of the that specialist language, and not many teachers are exposed to workin g environments outside the classroom. These issues have influenced the way speci alist English is taught in schools. This type of course is usually known as Engl ish for Specific Purposes, or ESP and there isn't ESP courses for almsot every a rea of professional and working life. In Britain, for example, there are courses which teach English for doctors, lawyers, reporters, travel agents and people w orking in the hotel industry. By far, the most popular ESP courses are for busin ess English.SYT大学英语四级考试网

Passage TwoSYT大学英语四级考试网
    The first step to stop drug abuse is knowing why people start to use drugs. The reasons people abuse drugs are as different as people are from one to anothe r. but there seems to be one common thread: people seem to take drugs to changes the way they feel. They want to feel better or feel happy or to feel nothing. S ometimes, they want to forget or to remember. People often feel better about the mselves when they are under the influence of drugs. But the effects don't last l ong. Drugs don't solve problems. They just postpone them. No matter how far drug s may take you, it's always around trip. After a while, people who miss drugs ma y feel worse about themselves, and they they may use more drugs. If someone you know is using or abusing drugs, you can help. The most important part you can pl ay is to be there. You can let your friends know that you care. You can listen a nd try to solve the problem behind your friend's need to use drugs. Two people together can often solve a problem that seems too big for one person alone. Studies of heavy abusers in the United States show that they felt unloved and unwanted. They didn't have close friends to talk to. When you or your friends take the time to care for each other, you're all helping to stop drugs abuse. After all, what is a friend for?SYT大学英语四级考试网

Passage ThreeSYT大学英语四级考试网
    Bows and arrows, are one of man's oldest weapons. They gave early man an eff ective weapon to kill his enemies. The ordinary bow or short bow as used by near ly all early people. This bow had limited power and short range. However, man ov ercame these faults by learning to track his targets at a close rane. The long h ow was most likely discovered when someone found out that a five-foot piece of w ood made a better bow than a three-food piece. Hundreds of thousands of these bo ws were made and used for three hundred years. However, not one is known to surv ive today. We believe that a force of about one hundred pounds was needed to pul l the string all the way back on a long bow. For a long time the bow was just a bent stick and string. In fact, more changes have taken plae in a bow in the past 25 years than in the last 7 centuries. Today, bow is forceful. It is as exact as a gun. In addition, it requires little strength to draw the string. Modern bo ws also have precise aiming devices. In indoor contest, perfect scores from 40 y ards are common. The invention of the bows itself ranks with discovery of fire a nd the wheel. It was a great-step-forward for man.SYT大学英语四级考试网
