综合题,请根据题目给出的内容,来回答下面给出的试题。Part Ⅱ Reading
Comprehension (35 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part, Each passage is followed by some
questions at 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.




Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
In 1985 when a Japan Air Lines (JAL) jet crashed, its president, Yasumoto
Takagi, called each victim’s family to apologize, and then promptly resigned. And in
1987, when a subsidiary of Toshiba sole sensitive military technology to the former
Soviet Union, the chairman of Toshiba gave up his post.


These executive actions, which Toshiba calls “the highest form of apology,”
may seem bizarre to US managers. No one at Boeing resigned after the JAL crash,
which may have been caused by a faulty Boeing repair.
The difference between the two business cultures centers around different
definitions of delegation. While US executives give both responsibility and authority
to their employees, Japanese executives delegate only authority—the responsibility is
still theirs. Although the subsidiary that sold the sensitive technology to the Soviets
had its own management, the Toshiba top executives said they “must take personal
responsibility for not creating an atmosphere throughout the Toshiba group that would
make such activity unthinkable, even in an independently run subsidiary.”
Such acceptance of community responsibility is not unique to businesses in
Japan. School principals in Japan have resigned when their students committed major
crimes after school hours. Even if they do not quit, Japanese executives will often
accept primary responsibility in other ways, such as taking the first pay cut when a
company gets into financial trouble. Such personal sacrifices, even if they are largely
symbolic, help to create the sense of community and employee loyalty that is crucial
to the Japanese way of doing business.
Harvard Business School professor George Lodge calls the ritual acceptance
of blame “almost a feudal (封建的) way of purging (清除) the community of
dishonor,” and to some in the United States, such resignations look cowardly.
However, in an era in which both business and governmental leaders seem
particularly good at evading responsibility, many US managers would probably
welcome an infusion (灌输) of the Japanese sense of responsibility, If, for instance,

US automobile company executives offered to reduce their own salaries before they
asked their workers to take pay cuts, negotiations would probably take on a very
different character.

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
As machines go, the car is not terribly noisy, nor terribly polluting, nor terribly
dangerous; and on all those dimensions it has become better as the century has grown
older. The main problem is its prevalence, and the social costs that ensue from the use
by everyone of something that would be fairly harmless if, say, only the rich were to
use it. It is a price we pay for equality.
Before becoming too gloomy, it is worth recalling why the car has been arguably
the most successful and popular product of the whole of the past 100 years—and
remains so. The story begins with the environmental improvement it brought in the
1900s. In New York city

in 1900, according to the Car Culture. A 1975 book by J. Flink, a historian, horses
deposited 2.5 millioo pounds of manure(粪)and 60,000 gallons of urine (尿) every day.
Every year, the city authorities had to remove an average of 15,000 dead horses from
the streets, It made cars smell of roses.
Cars were also wonderfully flexible. The main earlier solution to horse pollution
and traffic jams was the electric trolley bus (电车). But that required fixed overhead
wires, and rails and platforms, which were expensive, ugly, and inflexible, The car
could go from any A to any B, and allowed towns to develop in all directions with
low- density housing, rather than just being concentrated along the trolley or rail lines.
Rural areas benefited too, for they became less remote.
However, since pollution became a concern in the 1950s, experts have predicted
—wrongly—that the car boom was about to end. In his book Mr. Flink argued that by
1973 the American market had become saturated, at one car for every 2.25 people,
and so had the markets of Japan and Western Europe (because of land shortages).
Environmental worries and diminishing oil reserves would prohibit mass car use
anywhere else.
He was wrong, Between 1970 and 1990, whereas America’s population grew by
23%, the aumber of cars on its roads grew by 60%, There is now one car for every 1.7
people there, one for every 2.1 in Japan, one for every 5.3 in Britain. Around 550
million cars are already on the roads, not to mention all the trucks and mocorcyeles,
免费?宅在家学英语?怎么报名?
and about 50 million new ones are made each year worldwide. Will it go on?
Undoubtedly, because people want it to.

请选择答案: A:B:C:D:Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
Crying is hardly an activity encouraged by society. Tears, be they of sorrow,
anger, on joy, typically make Americans feel uncomforuble and embarrassed. The
shedder of tears is likely to apologize, even when a devastating (毁灭性的) tragedy
was the provocation. The observer of tears is likely to do everything possible to put an
end to the emotional outpouring. But judging form recent studies of crying behavior,
links between illness and crying and the chemical composition of tears, both those
responses to tears are often inappropriate and may even be counterproductive.
Humans are the only animals definitely known to shed emotiomal tears. Since
evolution has given rise to few, if any, purposeless physiological responset, it is
logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that enhance survival.
Although some observers have suggested that crying is a way to clicit assistance form
others (as a crying baby might from its mother), the shedding of tears is hardly
necessary to get help. Vocal cries would have been quite enough, more likely than
tears to gain attention, So, it appears, there must be something special about tears
themselves.
Indeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a direct role in
alleviating stress, University of Minnesota researchers who are studying the chemical
composition of tears have recently isolated two important chemicals from emotional
tears. Both chemicals are found only in tears that are shed in response to cmotion.
Tears shed because of exposure to =cut onion would contain no such substance.
Researchers at several other institutions are investigating the usefulness of tears as a
means of diagnosing human ills and monitoring drugs.
At Tulane University’s Teat Analysis Laboratory Kastl and his
colleagues report that they can use tears to detect drug abuse and exposure to
medication(药物), to determine whether a contact lens fits properly of why it may be
uncomfortable, to study the causes of “dry eye” syndrome and the effects of eye
surgery, and perhaps even to measure exposure to environmental pollutants.
At Columbia University Faris and colleagues are studying tears for
clues to the diagnosis of diseases away from the eyes. Tears can be obtained
painlessly without invading the body and only tiny amounts are needed to perform
highly refined analyses.

请选择答案: A:B:C:D:Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.
It is no secret among athletes that in order to improve performance you’ve got to
work hard. However, hard training breaks you down and makes you weaker, It is rest
that makes you stronger. Improvement only occurs during the rest period following
hard training. This adaptation is accomplished by improving efficiency of the heart
and certain systems within the muscle cells. During recovery periods these systems
build to greater levels to compensate for the stress that you have applied. The result is
that you are now at a higher level of performance.
If sufficient rest is not included in a training program, imbalance between excess
training and inadequate rest will occur, and performance will decline. The
“overtraining syndrome(综合症)” is the name given to the collection of emotional,
behavioral, and physical symptoms due to overtraining that has persisted for weeks to
months. It is marked by cumulative exhaustion that persists even after recovery
periods.
The most common symptom is fatigue. This may limit workouts and may be present
at rest. The athlete may also become moody, easily imitated, have altered sleep
patterns, become depressed, or lose the competitive desire and enthusiasm for the
sport, Some will report decreased appetite and weight loss. Physical symptoms
include persistent muscular soreness, increased frequency of viral (病毒性的)
illnesses, and increased incidence of injuries.
The treatment for the overtraining syndrome is rest. The longer the overtraining
has occurred, the more rest required, Therefore, early detection is very important, If
the overtraining has only occurred for a short period of time (e.g. 3-4 weeks) then
interrupting training for 3-5 days is usually sufficient rest. It is important that the
factors that lead to overtraining be identified and corrected. Otherwise, the
overtraining syndrome is likely to recur. The overtraining syndrome should be
considered in any athlete who manifests symptoms of prolonged fatigue and whose
performance has leveled off or decreased. It is important to exclude any underlying
illness that may be responsible for the fatigue.
