Passage 1
The universities from which our own are descended were founded in the Middle Ages. They were
established either by corporations of students wanting to learn, as in Italy, or by teachers wanting to teach as
in France. Corporations that had special or customary privileges for the purpose of carrying out the
intentions of the incorporators were common in those days. The university corporations of the Middle Ages
at the height of their power were not responsible to anybody, in the sense that they could not be brought to
book by any authority. They claimed, and made good their claim, complete independence of all secular and
religious control The American university was, however, at first a corporation formed by a religious
denomination or by the state for the purposes of the denomination or the state.
The American university in the seventeenth century was much closer to the American university today
than to the medieval university. The Puritan communities needed ministers and professional men and so
established universities to provide them. Later, religious groups built universities in order to extend their own
influence. For example, the University of Chicago was founded by devout Baptists to combat the rising tide
of Methodism in the Middle West. The president and trustees of the university were required to have the
proper religious affiliations in order to keep the university on the right path. Fortunately, the combination of
John D. Rockefeller, William Rainey Harper, and the enlightened wing of the Baptist Church preserved
the university from too narrow an interpretation of its purpose.
11. what does the passage mainly discussed?
A. The importance of the universities.
B. The universities of the Middle Ages.

B. To make students study their religion.
C. To convert more people.
D. To provide necessary personnel for the Puritan communities.
14. It is implied that the University of Chicago
A. underwent a period of liberalization
B. succeeded in fighting the influence of Methodists
C. made true of the purpose
D. was finally taken over by John D. Rockefeller

Passage 2
Throughout history man has changed his physical environment in order to improve his way of life.
With the tools of technology he has altered many physical features of the earth. He has transformed
woodlands into farmland, and made lakes and reservoirs out of rivers for irrigation purposes or hydroelectric
power. Man has also modified the face of the earth by draining marshes and cutting through mountains to
build roads and railways.
However, man' s changes to the physical environment have not always had beneficial results. Today,
pollution of the air and water is an increasing danger to the health of the planet. Each day thousands of tons
of gases come out of the exhausts of motor vehicles; smoke from factories pollutes the air of industrialized
areas and the surrounding areas of countryside. The air in cities is becoming increasingly unhealthy.


The pollution of water is equally harmful. In the sea, pollution from oil is increasing and is killing
enormous numbers of algae (水藻), fish and birds. The whole ecological balance of the sea is being
changed. The same problem exists in rivers. Industrial wastes have already made many rivers lifeless.
Conservationists believe that it is now necessary for man to limit the growth of technology in order to
survive on earth.
16. Man has changed his physical environment with a view to
A. altering the physical features of the earth
B. bettering his way of life

D. industrial wastes discharged into rivers
18. The ecological balance of the sea is lost when
A. people consume more fish than they used to
B. the ecological balance of the river is lost
C. large numbers of algae, fish and birds are killed
D. the production of marine petroleum is increased
19. Who would most probably disagree with conservationists?
A. Industrialists. B. Ecologists.

C. Businessmen. D. Environmentalists

20. The purpose of the writer is
A. to reduce modern technology
B. to improve man' s way of life
C. to warn people not to change the natural environment
D. to call attention to the protection of the natural environment
Passage 3
People appear to be born to compute. The numerical skills of children develop so early and so
inexorably that it is easy to imagine an internal clock of mathematical maturity guiding their growth. Not
long after learning to walk and talk, they can set the table with impressive accuracy--one plate, one knife,
one spoon, one fork, for each of the five chairs. Soon they are capable of noting that they have placed five
knives, spoons, and forks on the table, and a bit later, that this amounts to fifteen pieces of silverware.
Having thus mastered addition, they move on to subtraction. It seems almost reasonable to expect that if a
child were secluded on a desert island at birth and retrieved seven years later, he or she could enter a
second-grade mathematics class without any serious problems of intellectual adjustment.
Of course, the truth is not so simple this century. The work of cognitive psychologists has illuminated
the subtle forms of daily learning on which intellectual progress depends. Children were observed as they
slowly grasped--or, as the case might be, bumped into-concepts that adults take for granted, as they refused,
for instance, to concede that quantity is unchanged as water pours from a short stout glass into a tall thin one.
Psychologists have since demonstrated that young children, asked to count the pencils, on a pile, readily
report the number of blue or red pencils, but must be coaxed into finding the total. Such studies have
suggested that the rudiments of mathematics are mastered gradually, and with effort. They have also
suggested that the very concept of abstract numbers--the idea of a oneness, twoness, a threeness that applies
to any class of objects and is a prerequisite for doing anything more mathematically demanding than setting a
table--is itself far more innate.
21. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. trends in teaching mathematics to children.
B. The use of mathematics in child psychology.
C. The development of mathematical ability in children.
D. The fundamental concepts of mathematics that children must learn.
22. It can be inferred from the passage that children normally learn simple counting
A. soon after they learn to talk
B. by looking at the clock
C. when they begin to be mathematically mature
D. after they reach school grade in school
23. According to the passage, when small children were asked to count a pile of red and blue pencils, they
__
A. counted the number of pencils of each other
B. counted the total number of pencils
C. counted only the pencils of their favorite color
D. subtracted the number of red pencils from the number blue pencils.
24. The word
A. the total
B. the concept of abstract number

C. any class of objects
D. setting a table

D. technique
25. The word
A. reason
Passage 4
B. theory C. requirement
More surprising, perhaps, than the current difficulties of traditional marriage is the fact that marriage
itself is alive and thriving. As Skolnick notes, Americans are marrying people: relative to Europeans, more of
us marry and we marry at a younger age. Moreover, after a decline in the early 1970s, the rate of marriage in
the United States is now increasing. Even the divorce rate needs to be taken in this pro- marriage context:
some 80 percent of divorced individuals remarry. Thus, marriage remains, by far, the preferred way of life for
the vast majority of people in our society.
What has changed more than marriage is the nuclear family. Twenty five years ago, the typical
American family consisted of a husband, a wife, and two or three children. Now, there are many marriages in
which couples have decided not to have any children. And there are many marriages where at least some of
the children are from the wife' s previous marriage, or the husband' s, or both. Sometimes these children
spend all of their time with one parent from the former marriage; sometimes they are shared between the two
former spouses (配偶).
Thus, one can find the very type of family arrangement. There are marriages without children;
marriages with children from only the present marriage; marriages with
marriage and children from former marriages. There are stepfathers, stepmothers,
half-brothers, and half-sisters. It is not all that unusual for a child to have four parents and eight grandparents!
These are enormous changes from the traditional nuclear family. But even so, even in the midst of all this,
there remains one constant: most Americans spend most of their adult lives married.
26. By calling Americans marrying people the author means that
A. Americans are more traditional than Europeans
B. Americans expect more out of marriage than Europeans
C. there are more married couples in U.S.A than in Europe
D. more of Americans, as compared with Europeans, prefer marriage and they accept it at a younger age
27. Divorced Americans
A. will most likely remarry
B. prefer the way they live
C. have lost faith in marriage
D. are the vast majority of people in the society
28. Which of the following can be presented as the picture of today's American families?
A. A typical American family consists of only a husband and a wife,
B. Many types of family arrangements have become socially acceptable.
C. Americans prefer to have more kids than before.
