Passage 1

Looking back on my childhood.I am convinced that naturalists are bom and not made.Although we were brought up in the same way,my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed(緊抱的)flowers and insects. Unlike them , hand no ear for music and languages,I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.

Before Word war I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary.I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys.(76)Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents ,aunts,uncles and cousins who gathered next door.but 1 do have a crystal-dlear memory of dogs,the fam animals,the local birds and above all,the insets.

I am a naturalist,not a scientist.I have a strong love of the natural world,and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations.I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight.I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy buming the midnight oil,reading about other people's observations and discoveries .then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle( 謎),because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and

books,which some might honor with the title of scientific research.

But curiosity,a keen eye,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientit one of the outstanding and essental qulities required is self-discipline,a quality I lack.A scientist can be made A naturalist is bom.If you can combine the two,you get the best of born worlds.

Passage 2

Question 6 to 10 are based on the fllowing passage.

If you have a chance to go to Finland,you will probably be suprised to find how“foolish”the Finnish people are.

Take the taxi drivers for example.Taxis in Finland are mostly high- dlass Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer.You can go anywhere in one,tell the driver to drop you at any place,say that you have some business to attend to,and then walk off without paying your fare.The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.

The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners.Hotel guests have their meals fee, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their waiter.With such a loose check,you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.

The Finish workers are paid by the hour.(77)They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.

With so many loopholes(漏洞 )in everyday life,surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take“petty advantages".But the strange thing is,all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business;not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms.And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in.As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do,living in such a society has turned everyone into a real"gentleman"

(78)In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others?

6.While taking a taxi in Finland,______

A.a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver

B.a passenger pays two Us dollars for a taxi ride
