Directions：There are 4 reading 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 o single line throught the center.

根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容回答下面試題：

Celebrities lead very stressful lives，for no matter how fascinating or powerful they are，they have too little privacy，too much pressure，and no safety.

For one thing，celebrities don’t have the privacy an ordinary person has.The most personal details of their lives are printed on the front pages of the National Enquirer and the Globe so that bored supermarket shoppers can read about“Leonardo DiCaprio’s Awful Secret”or“The Heartbreak behind Winona Ryder's Smile”。Even a celebrity’s family is made public.A teen-age son’s arrest for using drug or a wife’s drinking problem becomes the subject of headlines.Photographers chase celebrities at their homes，in restaurants，and on the street，hoping to get a picture of Halle Berry in curlers or Jim Carrey drinking beer.When celebrities try to do the things that normal people do，like eat out or attend a football game，they run the risk of being interrupted by thoughtless photographers.

Celebrities must also cope with the constant pressure of having to look great and act fight.Their physical appearance is always under observation.Famous women，especially，suffer from public attention，inviting remarks like“She really looks old”or“Boy，has she put on weight.”Embarrassing pictures of celebrities are sold at hi|gh prices，which increases the pres-sure on celebrities to look good at all times.Famous people are also under pressure to act“calm and collected under any circumstances.Because they are constantly observed，they have no freedom to be angry or to do something just a little crazy.

Most important，celebrities must deal with the stress of being in constant danger.The friendly behaviors such as kisses of enthusiastic fans can quickly turn into uncontrolled attacks on a celebrity’s hair，clothes，and car.Most people agree that photographers brar some respon-sibility for the death of one of the leading celebrities of the 1990s--Princess Diana.Whether or not their pursuit caused the accident that took her life.it's clear she was chased by reporters like an escaped prisoner chased by police dogs.And celebrities can even fall victim to deliber-ately deadly attacks.The attempts to kill Ronald Reagan and the murder of John Lennon came about because two unbalanced people could not get these world·famous figures off their minds.

As a result，famous people must live with the fact that they are always fair game--and never out of season.

根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容回答下面試題：

Many things about language are a mystery，and many will always remain so.But sone things we do know.

First，we know that all human beings have a language of some sort.Thero is no race of men anvwhere on earth so backward that it has no language，no set of speech souBds by whieh the people communicate with one another.Furthermore，in historical times，there has never been a race of men without a language.

Second.there is no such thing as a primitive language.There are many people whose cal-tures are undeveloped，who are，as we say，uncivilized，but the languages they speak are not Drimitive.In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been，tens of thou-sands of years in developing.

This has not always been well understood;indeed，the direct contrary has often been stated.Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate.Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive system of noises-Study has proved this to be nonsense.There are，or were，hundreds of American Indian languages，and all of them tum out to be very complicated and very old.They are certainly different from.the lanlguages that most of us are familiar with，but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate.That is，each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language.

Finallv，we know that language changes.It is natural and normal for language to change;the only languages which do not change are the dead ones.This is easy to understand if we look backward in time.Change goes on in all aspects of language.Grammatical features change as do speech sounds.and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive.and may occur Very rapidly.Vocabulary is the least stable part of any languages.

“Too many people view their jobs as a five-day prison from which they are paroled every Friday，”says Joel Gook man，founder of The Humor Project，a humor-consulting group in Saratoga Springs，N.Y.Humor unlocks the’office prison because it lets adults bring some of their childlike spirit to the job.

According to Howard Polli0，professor of psychology at the University of Tennesse，Knox-ville，an office with humor breaks is an office with satisfied and productive employees.Pollio conducted a study that proved humor can help workers excel at routine production task.Employees perform better when they have fun.

In large corporations with a hierarchy of power，there is often no outlet for stress，“Every company needs underground ways of、poking fun at the organization，”says Lynn Mark，a speak-er on workplace humor for St.Mary’S Health Center in St.Louis.

Kodak’S Rochester，New York branch discovered a way for its 20 000employees to uncork their bottomed-up resentments.Their 1 000.square.foot“Humor Room”features a“toy store.”Among the room's many stress-reducing gadgets，the main attraction is a boss doll with Velcro antis and legs.Employees can dismantle the boss，as long as they put its arms and legs back in place.

Every April Fool’S day，Sun Micro systems of mountain View，Calif.，concocts(虛構(gòu))an intricate hoax(惡作劇)aimed at one of its employees.One year，CEO Scott McNealy’S office was decorated as a one-hole，par—four miniature golf course.The annual gag does so much for encouraging teamwork and boosting morale that the company has set aside an April Fool’s hoax budget.

Sandy Cohen，owner of a graphic print-production business，created“The Quote Board” to document the amusing phrases people say when under strict deadlines.“When you’re under stress，you say stupid things，”says Cohen.“Now we just look at each other and say，That’S one for the Quote Board!”

根據(jù)以下內(nèi)容回答下面試題：

No one knows for sure why birds migrate.One theory of migration says that ancient birds of the northern part of the earth were forced southward during the Ice Age，when ice covered large parts of Europe，Asia and North America.As the ice melted，the birds came back to their homelands，spent the summer，and then went south again in winter.Gradually，these comings and goings became habits，and birds now migrate though much of the ice has gone.

Another theory proposes that the ancient home of all modern birds was the tropic areas.There lived so well that the region became overcrowded.Many species had to move northward.During the summer，these birds found plenty of room and food.In winter，however，food be-came scarce and they had to return to the south.

A newer theory is that increasing daylight stimulates certain glands(腺)in the bird’s body and prepares it for migration.One scientist is able to make birds migrate in midwinter by expo-sing them for two months to artificial daylight.Recoveries of marked birds indicate that they fly north as soon as they are set free.The conclusion is that the urge to migrate is determined by changes in the bird’s body which take place under seasonal changes in the length of daylight.

This theory would account for the fact that not all birds migrate at the same time.Each sDecies seems to have its own schedule.The theory would also account for the regular time and rou‘tes of migration.Birds arrive at a given place year after year.Unfavorable weather delays them only a few days.Total hours of daylight，rather than weather，start them on the way.

How birds find their way to the same place year after year and why they follow their own Darticular route are still mysteries.They evidently do not follow known landmarks，for many young birds migrate alone without the help of experienced adults.

第31題單選 We can conclude from the first paragraph that__________ .

A.during the Ice Age，the whole Europe was covered with ice

B.the south used to be the homelands of all birds

C.scientists can confidently explain why birds migrate now

D.migration of birds can be explained by the change of ice on earth

參考答案：D

第32題單選 The birds mentioned in the third paragraph fly north in midwinter because__________ .

A.they are specially trained by a scientist

B.they are affected by seasorfal changes
