Part II

Reading Comprehension


(30 %)
Directions:
There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some
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 center.

Passage One
4-18


Science is not a set of unquestionable results but a way of understanding the
world
around
us.
Its
real
work
is
slow.
The
scientific
method
,
as
many
of
us
learned
in school, is a gradual process that begins with a purpose or problem or question
to be answered. It includes a list of materials, a procedure to follow, a set of
observations to make and, finally, conclusions to reach. In medicine, when a new
drug
is
proposed
that
might
cure
or
control
a
disease,
it
is
first
tested
on
a
large
random
group
of
people,
and
their
reactions
are
then
compared
with
those
of
another
random group
not
given
the
drug.
All
reactions
in
both
groups
are
carefully
recorded
and compared, and the drug is evaluated. All of this takes time and patience.
It

s the result of course, that makes the best news

not the years of quiet
work that characterize the bulk of scientific inquiry. After an experiment is
concluded
or
an
observation
is
made,
the
result
continues
to
be
examined
critically.
When it is submitted for publication, it goes to a group of the scientist

s
colleagues, who review the work. Einstein was right when he said:

No amount of
experimentation can
ever prove
me right,
a single experiment can at any time prove
me wrong.


In August 1996, NASA announced the discovery in Antarctica of a meteorite
(流
星)
from Mars that might contain evidence of ancient life on another world. As
President
Clinton
said
that
day,
the
possibility
that
life
existed
on
Mars
billions
of years ago was potentially one of the great discoveries of our time.
After
the
excitement
wore
down
and
initial
papers
were
published,
other
researchers began looking at samples from the same meteorite. Some concluded that
the

evidence
of
life


was
mostly
contamination
from
Antarctic
ice
or
that
there
was nothing organic at all in the rock.
Was this a failure of science, as some news reports trumpeted?
No!
It
was
a
good
example
of
the
scientific
method
working
the
way
it
is
supposed
to.
Scientists
spend
years
on
research,
announce
their
findings,
and
these
findings
are examined by other scientists. That

s how we learn. Like climbing a mountain,
we
struggle
up
three
feet
and
fall
back
two.
It

s
a
process
filled
with
disappointments and reverses, but somehow we keep moving ahead.

21.
The
author

s
main
purpose
in
writing
this
passage
is
to
state
that
____________.
A) most scientific discoveries are not reliable
B) mass
media
is
misleading
because
it
looks
at
the
research
results
only
C) scientific
research
is
a
process
filled
with
reverses
and
requires
slow
and patient
work
D) repeated experiments are necessary before medicine can be used in
patients

22. Publication of a scientific finding signifies __________.
A) a challenge to fellow scientists to prove it wrong
B) the end of a process
5-18
C) the beginning of a new scientific inquiry
D) the soundness of the result

23. Einstein

s words are used to show that he thought___________.
A) experiments have proved him right
B) scientists do not need so many experiments
C) one experiment is not enough to prove him wrong.
D) scientific ideas are never free from challenge


24.
NASA

s
announcement
of
the
discovery
of
evidence
of
ancient
life
on
Mars
shows
_________.
A) the way human beings learn about nature
B) the failure of the scientific method
C) the fruitlessness of human search for life on another world
D) the excitement brought by scientific findings

25.
It
can
be
inferred
from
the
passage
that
the
media
is
interested
in
__________.
A) the process of scientific research
B) the results of scientific research
C) the scientists who do the research
D) the effects of scientific research on human life

Passage Two

Normally
a
student
must
attend
a
certain
number
of
courses
in
order
to
graduate,
and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a
degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of
thirty-six
courses
each
lasting
for
one
semester.
A
typical
course
consists
of
three
classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will
probably
attend
four
or
five
courses
during
each
semester.
Normally
a
student
would
expect
to
take
four
years
attending
two
semesters
each
year.
It
is
possible
to
spread
the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a
student
to
move
between
one
university
and
another
during
his
degree
course,
though
this is not in fact done as a regular practice.
For
every
course
that
he
follows
a
student
is
given
a
grade,
which
is
recorded,
and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All
this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some
students
still
find
time
for
great
activity
in
student
affairs.
Elections
to
positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of
maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic
authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by
cheating
has
to
appear
before
a
student
court.
With
the
enormous
numbers
of
students,
the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student
6-18
who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be
of benefit to him later in his career.

26. Normally a student would at least attend __________classes each week.
A) 36
B) 12
C) 20
D) 15

27. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed _______.
A) to live in a different university
B) to take a particular course in a different university
C) to live at home and drive to classes
D) to get two degrees from two different universities
28.
American
university
students
are
usually
under
pressure
of
work
because_________.
A) their academic performance will affect their future careers
B) they are heavily involved in student affairs
C) they have to observe university discipline
D) they want to run for positions of authority

students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably
because_________.
A) they hate the constant pressure and strain of their study
B) they will then be able to stay longer in the university
C) such positions help them get better jobs
D) such positions are usually well paid

30. The student organizations seem to be effective in _________.
A) dealing with the academic affairs of the university
B) ensuring that the students observe university regulations
C) evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a court

D) keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activities


Passage Three

Doreen Sykora is now a junior at Mcgill University. She had a difficult time
when
she
first
began
college.
She
said,

I
was
always
well
prepared
for
my
examinations. But I would go in to class to take the exam, and I would fall apart.
I could not answer the questions correctly-----even though I knew the answers! I
would
just
blank
out
because
of
nervousness
and
fear.


Hitoshi
Sakamoto,
an
anthropology student at Temple University in Tokyo reports similar experiences.
These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety.
Because a student worries and is stressed about a test, his or her mind does not
7-18
work as well as it usually does. The student cannot write or think clearly because
of the severe tension and nervousness.
Now there are special university courses to help students. In these courses,
advisors and psychologists try to help students by teaching them to manage test
anxiety.
Such
a
course
helps
students
learn
to
live
with
stress
and
not
fail
because
of
it.
First
students
take
a
practice
test
to
measure
their
worry
level.
If
the
tests
show
that
their
stress
level
is
high,
the
students
can
take
a
short
course
to
manage
the
fear.
These
courses
teach
students
how
to
relax
their
bodies.
They
get
training
to
become
calm
in
very
tense
situations.
By
controlling
their
nervousness,
they
can
let
their
minds
work
more
easily.
Learned
information
then
comes
out
without
difficulty on a test.
Doreen Sykora saw immediate results after taking such a course. She now has
enthusiasm about the relaxation methods.

Mostly, what I do is imagine myself in
a very calm place. Then I imagine myself picking up a pencil. I move slowly and
carefully.
I
breathe
easily
and
let
all
the
tension
out.
With
each
breath,
more
worry
leaves
me. It really works too.
My grades
have
improved greatly! I

m really doing
well at McGill now. This relaxation method works not only on examinations, but it
has improved the rest of my life as well.


For Hitoshi in Tokyo, the results were much the same. He is enjoying school a
lot more and learning more.
31.

Sykora
and
Hitoshi
Sakamoto

with
nervousness
and
fear
during
examinations because they were__________.

C) subject to test anxiety
D) unable to write or think clearly

32. The higher the students

worry level is, __________.
A) the less calm and relaxing they are
B) the more difficult they will be trained to manage fear
