28、arked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Passage 1 Psychologist George Spilich and colleagues at Washington College in Chestertown,Maryland,decided to find out whether,as many smokers say,smoking helps them to“think and concentrate.Spil
29、ich put young non-smokers,active smokers and smokers deprived(被剥夺)of cigarettes through a series of tests.In the first test,each subject(试验对象)sat before a computer screen and pressed a key as soon as he or she recognized a target letter among a grouping of 96.In this simple test,smokers,deprived smo
30、kers and non-smokers performed equally well.The next test was more complex,requiring all to scan sequences of 20 identical letters and respond the instant one of the letters transformed into a different one.Non-smokers were faster,but under the stimulation of nicotine(尼古丁),active smokers were faster
31、 than deprived smokers.In the third test of short-term memory,non-smokers made the fewest errors,but deprived smokers committed fewer errors than active smokers.The fourth test required people to read a passage,then answer questions about it.Non-smokers remembered 19 percent more of the most importa
32、nt information than active smokers,and deprived smokers bested those who had smoked a cigarette just before testing.Active smokers tended not only to have poorer memories but also had trouble separating important information from insignificant details.“As our tests became more complex,”sums up Spili
33、ch,“non-smokers performed better than smokers by wider and wider margins”He predicts,“smokers might perform adequately at many jobs-until they got complicated.A smoking airline pilot could fly adequately if no problems arose,but if something went wrong,smoking might damage his mental capacity.”61.Th
34、e purpose of George Spilichs experiments is _.A.to test whether smoking has a positive effect on the mental capacity of smokers B.to show how smoking damages peoples mental capacity C.to prove that smoking affects peoples regular performance D.to find out whether smoking helps peoples short-term mem
35、ory 62.George Spilichs experiment was conducted in such a way as to _.A.compel the subjects to separate major information from minor details B.put the subjects through increasingly complex tests C.check the effectiveness of nicotine on smokers D.register the prompt responses of the subjects 63.The w
36、ord“bested”(Line 3,Para.5)most probably means _.A.beat B.envied C.caught up with D.made the best of 64.Which of the following statements is true A.Active smokers in general performed better than deprived smokers.B.Active smokers responded more quickly than the other subjects.C.Non-smokers were not b
37、etter than other subjects in performing simple tasks.D.Deprived smokers gave the slowest responses to the various tasks.65.We can infer from the last paragraph that _.A.smokers should not expect to become airline pilots B.smoking in emergency cases causes mental illness C.no airline pilots smoke dur
38、ing flights D.smokers may prove unequal to handing emergency cases Passage 2 There is no denying that students should learn something about how computers work,just as we expect them at least to understand that the internal-combustion engine(内燃机)has something to do with burning fuel,expanding gases a
39、nd pistons(活塞)being driven.For people should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do.Further,students might be helped by a course that considers the computers impact on society.But that is not what is meant by computer literacy.For computer literacy is not a form of lite
40、racy(读写能力);it is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art.Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities.A case might be made that the competent citizens of tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers.But this is quite diff
41、erent from saying that all ought to know how to program one.Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career.While programming can be lots of fun,and while our society needs some people who are experts at it,the same is true of auto repaid and violin-making.Learning how to use a computer
42、 is not that difficult,and it gets easier all the time as programs become more“user-friendly”.Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citizen.What does the phrase“learning to use a computer”mean It sounds like“learning to drive a car
43、”,that is,it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that,once acquired,enable one to use a computer.In fact,“learning to use a computer”is much more like“learning to play a game”,but learning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game,whose rules may not be the same.There i
44、s no such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer.One can only teach people to use this or that program and generally that is easily accomplished.66.To be the competent citizens of tomorrow,people should _.A.try to lay a solid foundation in computer science B.be aware of how the things tha
45、t they use do what they do C.learn to use a computer by acquiring a certain set of skills D.understand that programming a computer is more essential than repairing a car 67.In the second paragraph“violin-making”is mentioned to show that _.A.programming a computer is as interesting as making a violin
46、 B.our society needs experts in different fields C.violin-making requires as much skill as computer programming D.people who can use a computer dont necessarily have to know computer programming 68.Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because _.A.programs are becoming less compl
47、icated B.programs are designed to be convenient to users C.programming is becoming easier and easier D.programs are becoming readily available to computer users（B）69.According to the author,the phrase“learning to use a computer”(Lines 3-4,Para.3)means learning _.A.a set of rules B.the fundamentals o
48、f computer science C.specific programs D.general principles of programming 70.The authors purpose in writing this passage is _.A.to stress the impact of the computer on society B.to explain the concept of the computer literacy C.to illustrate the requirements for being competent citizens of tomorrow
49、 D.to emphasize that computer programming is an interesting and challenging job Passage 3 The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled,pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness,if fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be e
50、qual to unhappiness.But in fact,the opposite is true:more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result,many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness.They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage,raising children,professiona
