example , often show their teeth when they are angry . This is probably because


they are born with those behavior patterns .

heopened his eyes wide

frequently

used

where
the
police

given

derogatory
nicknames

”

the visitor to Britain , when asked for his views of the country , will always

say , at some point or other ,

“I
think your policemen are

wonderful

”.

Well , the British bobby not always be wonderful but he is usually a very

friendly and helpful sort of character . A music-hall song of some years ago

was called

”
. Nowadays

most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions
to ask the policeman . In London , the policeman spend so much of their

Passage Three























Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage .


It

is

difficult

to

imagine

what

life would be like without

memory .

The


meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions , the bases for the decisions we


make , and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found

experiences , which are brought into the present by memory .


Memory

can be defined



in

our

past




as

the

capacity

to

keep

information

”
things

available for

like


latter

for

later

use

. It

not

only

includes
“
remembering

arithmetic

or

historical

facts

but

also involves any change in

the way

an







animal typically behaves . Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain

because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile . Memory is also

involved when a six- year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat .

Memory

exists

not

only

in humans




and

animals

but

also

in

some

physical

objects and machines .

Computers

, for

example

, contain

devices

for

storing





data for later use . It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity

of a computer with that of a human being . The instant-access memory of a large


computer may hold up to 100,000

American

“
words

—”
ready for instant use . An average


teenager

probably

recognizes

the

meaning

of about

100,000

words of












English . However , this is but a fraction of the total amount of information


which the teenager has stored . Consider , for example , the number of faces


and places that the teenager can recognize on sight .






The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence

of human beings . A large part of a







person
’s
memory is in terms of words and










combinations of words .



ing to the passage , memory is considered to be________.

basis for decision making and problem solving

ability to store information for future use






intelligence typically possessed by human beings

data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words

human being shows that______.

er

’s

er

’s

computer
’s
in every respect

in the last
sentence

be best
replaced

by

“

Passage Four

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage .




Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must

communicate with other people . A great deal of communication is performed on a

person- to-person basis by the simple means of speech . If we travel in buses ,


buy
thing
in
shops
,
or
eat
in
restaurants


,
we
are
likely
to
have

conversations where we give information or opinions , receive news or comment

,and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society .


Face-to-face
contact
is by no means


the only
form
of communication

and

during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one

of the dominating factors of contemporary society . Two things , above others ,


have
caused
the enormous

growth
of the
communication
in
printing

industry
. Firstly

,
,

,

inventiveness








has
led
to
advances

telecommunications

the

photography
, radio
and television .
Secondly
, speed
has revolutionized
transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a

back

seat

to

national

news

,

which

itself

is

often

almost

eclipsed
（黯然失色）
by international news .

No
longer
is
the
possession
of
information
confined
to
a

privileged

minority . In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed

fortunate , but today there are public libraries . Forty years ago people used


to flock to the cinema , but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV


to watch a programme the is being channeled into millions of homes .




Communication

is
no
longer
merely
concerned
with
the
transmission

of

information . The modern communication industry influences the way people live

in society
and broadens
their
horizons
by allowing
access
to information

,






education and entertainment .The printing , broadcasting and advertising industries are
all involved with informing , educating and entertaining .



Although
a great
deal
of the material
communicated
by the mass
media
is

very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part , the


vast modern
network
of communications
is open to abuse .
However
, the mass

media are with us for better or for worse , and there is no turning back .

first paragraph emphasizes the ______ of face-to-face contact in social

settings .

ness

tion



vity
