Directions: There are three 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
(76) Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswom-en kills the essence of sport-the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competi-tive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself, and he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation’s hopes, dreams and reputation.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention "Argentina" to someone, and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup "put Argentina on the map."
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in Eng-land felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money travel-ing to Argentina, where the finals were played.
So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not!(77) Do the Argentinian really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skilful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others?Not really. But it’s nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.
1.
What is the author’s main purpose in the passage?
A To prove that football is the world’s most important sport.
B To show that Argentina is better than all others.
C To compare Scotland with Argentina.
D To explain the role of sport.
答案:D
此題考查的是考生對文章總體觀點的認識。Football is the world’s most important sport是第二段中的原話，這只是文章中普通的一句話，並不代表作者的觀點，因此A項認為本文的目的是去證明這句話顯然是錯誤的。Do the Argentinian really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skilful at football，their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really.僅僅因為阿根廷足球隊的11名隊員證明了他們是在足球領域技藝最高超的，阿根廷的人們就認為阿根廷在各個方面都是世界上最好的嗎?不是這樣的。從以上這句話可以看出B項也是錯誤的。文章中根本沒有拿阿根廷和蘇格蘭做比較，C項顯然不對。因此本題應該選擇D。
2.
In the second paragraph, the word "summit" means ______.
A highest point
B mountain top
C award
D summary
答案:A
本題考查的是對詞義的猜測。Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success.假如這句話我們只認識前半句，即“贏得世界盃是……”。很顯然贏得世界盃就是贏得冠軍.也就是站到了足球領域的最高點，因此sum-mit的意思是A項。
3.
According to the passage, Argentina is world-famous because of its ______.
A large number of sports fans and supporters
B success in the football World Cup
C obvious position on the map
D excellence at most important sports
答案:B
本題其實考查的是對winning the World Cup“put Argentina on the map”這句話的.理解，把阿根廷放到地圖上其實就是說讓全世界的人都知道阿根廷，而獲得世界盃是讓阿根廷知名度提升的原因。理解了這句話，這道題的答案B也就不說自明瞭。
4.
According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will ______.
A fail to succeed
B be successful
C lose enjoyment
D be irrational
答案:C
這道題考查的是對第一段中這句話的理解：The individual represen-ting his country cannot afford to think about enjoying he has to think only about winning.代表國家參加比賽的個人根本無法考慮從比賽中得到樂趣，他們不得不考慮如何去獲得勝利。所以說只想著去獲得勝利的人是得不到體育本身的樂趣的。因此本題應該選擇C。
5.
What is the author’s attitude towards international games?
A Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.
B Nations that win the football World Cup are regarded as the best in all aspects.
C Nations that win in international games prove the best on the sports field at least.
D Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.
答案:C
本題是考查作者觀點的題目。想做對此題，應該找到最後一段中的這句話：But it’s nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.但是，知道你的國家獲勝是很令人高興的一件事情，這表明至少在一個領域中你的國家是最好的。在四個選項裡面只有C項和這句話相符。因此應該選擇C。
Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
If you smoke-particularly cigarettes-you are far more likely than a non-smoker to suffer or die from several major diseases-notably lung cancer.
One smoker in four dies prematurely (過早的) because of his smoking. The risk of dy-ing for a heavy smoker (between the ages of 35 and 55) is roughly equal to the risk run by a non-smoker 10 years older.
Cigarette smoking-and to a lesser degree pipe and cigar smoking--may aggravate (使惡化) or be partly responsible for the development of a wide variety of other diseases, which include cancers of the mouth and throat, peptic ulcers (胃潰瘍), and loss of teeth.
(78) Women who smoke during pregnancy produce babies on average about 5 to 8 ounces lighter than those who don’t.
Take lung cancer for example.
Britain’s lung cancer figures are the highest in the world, and still rising. Ninety peo-ple die every day, 33,000 in 1969. Almost all these deaths can be attributed directly to to-bacco smoking. (79) The prospects of a cure for lung cancer are, at present, remote, and it is impossible to estimate when, if ever, someone will find one. You would be foolish to rely on someone finding a cure before you needed it.
One man in eight who die between the ages of 35 and 64 is killed by lung cancer. The figures for women in this age group are lower, about 1 in 20. This is partly because women smoke less, and have not smoked as long. But the figures are still very high.
6.
According to the passage, lung cancer______.
A is the major cause of death between the ages of 35 and 55
B is most often caused by smoking
C never affects non-smokers
D has nothing to do with smoking
答案:B
倒數第二段中給出證據：Almost all these deaths can be attributed di-rectly to tobacco smoking。
7.
Women who smoke during pregnancy produce______.
A lighter babies than those who don’t
B heavier babies than those who don’t
C babies who can’t live long
D babies who suffer from heart diseases
答案:A
原文第四段畫線句子給出了答案。
8.
The cure for lung cancer______.
A can be found before long
B is available if one needs it
C is unknown at present
D will be found before you need it
答案:C
倒數第二段最後一句，應該注意選項A中before long的意思是不久以後，和原文意思相反。
9.
The passage suggests that women______.
A smoke as much as men
B react better than men to smoking
C are affected by smoking only during pregnancy
D run the same risks as men if they smoke
答案:D
本題可以用排除法：婦女吸菸少於男性，婦女對於菸草的反應不會比男性好，婦女吸菸受影響並不限於懷孕期間。
10.
What is the main idea of the passage?
A Man-smokers live shorter than woman-smokers.
B All the deaths in Britain result directly from tobacco smoking.
C Smoking is the main killer of babies.
D Smoking can give rise to several major diseases.
答案:D
參見第一段，後面只是舉例說明論證。
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.
Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved everyone has a daily energy cycle.
During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you’re "hot. "That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body tem-perature is at its peak (頂峰). For some people, the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自語) as: "Get up, John. You’ll be late for work again. " The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-an-ener-gy peak in the evening. (80) Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives real-ize what these energy cycles mean and which cycle each member of the family has.
You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Dr. Kleitman believes that habit can help. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (對抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually stay-ing up later than you want. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (振作精神) and work better at your low point.
Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn (打哈欠) and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. When-ever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.
11.
According to the writer, if a person finds getting up early a problem, most proba-bly ______.
A he refuses to follow his own energy cycle
B he is a lazy person
C he is not sure when his energy is low
D he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening
答案:D
這道題考查考生對文章觀點的整體把握，由第一段可知，K1eitman博士對早晨起床困難的原因有了新的解釋，他認為每個人都有自己的生物鐘，而不是像人們通常所認為的那樣。
12.
Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A Man’s energy cycle can be changed easily.
B Some family quarrels are caused by unawareness of energy cycle.
C Getting up early in the morning is not easy.
D Everyone has a daily energy cycle but a lazy on
答案:B
由第二段最後一句Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean and which cycle each member of the family has可知，在很多家庭裡，當丈夫和妻子意識到生物鐘在生活中所起的作用時，就會停止爭吵。
13.
If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should______.
A change his own energy cycle
B go to bed earlier
C get up earlier than usual
D overcome his laziness
答案:C
由第三段If your energy is low in the morning but you have an impor-tant job to do early in the day，rise before your usual hour可知，如果你在早晨容易精神不振，而恰好又在此時有重要的工作，那麼就要起得比往常早些，故選C。
14.
You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.
A help you to keep your energy for the day’s work
B help you to control your temper early in the day
C enable you to concentrate on your routine work
D keep your energy cycle under control all day
答案:A
由第四段Get off to a slow start which saves your up with a leisurely yawn(打哈欠)and stretch可知，起床慢一些會幫助你節省精力，故選15.
Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.
B Dr. Kleitman doesn’t explain why people reach their peaks at different hours of the day.
C Habit helps one adapt to his own energy cycle.
D Children have energy cycles, too.
答案:A
有最後一段可知，為了保持精力，應在工作方法或工作時間上作適當的調節，而並非以極小的努力來對待工作。
