Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:
Teacher evaluations (评价) have been carried out in a lot of schools in recent years. Every term the students are given the opportunity to evaluate their teachers. The students are supposed to judge their teachers’ lectures, interests in students’ problems, methods of exercise, and general ability to conduct a class. Then, when the teacher has left the classroom, they must write their evaluation on the forms provided. They are not supposed to exchange views or discuss their responses. After everyone has completed the forms, one student collects and puts them in envelopes.
It is very difficult to evaluate another person?s performance fairly. For example, Santa recently wrote irresponsible remarks about her teacher because she was failing the course. Her friend Sam wrote a marvelous description of the same teacher because he was receiving an A in the course. Both Santa and Sam were not fairly evaluating the teacher. They were influenced by the grades they were earning and were unfair in their judgments.
Another irresponsible form of evaluation occurred when James rated his teacher excellent because the teacher is “easy”. He gives few tests and only assigns (分配) one paper during the entire term. His lectures are often filled with jokes and endless stories about his family. On the other hand, James rated Professor Jones poor because he assigns homework daily, gives pretest previews and post-test reviews, and packs his lectures with information.
Santa, Sam, and James have not thought about their teachers? teaching abilities. They have written unfair evaluations and have not given thought to their evaluations. They have not made fair judgments, but instead have been influenced by their own personality and have equated (使等同) little work with excellence in teaching.

Passage Three
Questions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:
There is probably no sphere of human activity in which our values and life styles are reflected more vividly than they are in the clothes that we choose to wear. The dress of an individual is a kind of “sign language” that communicates a complex set of information and is usually the basis on which immediate impressions are formed. Traditionally, women cared much about their clothes, while men took pride in the fact that they were completely lacking in clothes consciousness.
This type of American culture is gradually changing as men?s dress takes on greater variety and color. Even as early as 1995, a research in Michigan revealed that men attached rather high importance to the value of clothing in daily life. White-collar workers in particular viewed dress as a symbol of control, which could be used to impress or influence others, especially in the work situation. The white-collar worker was described as extremely concerned about the impression his clothing made on his superiors. Although blue-collar workers were less aware that they might be judged on the basis of their clothing, they recognized that they would be laughed at by their fellow workers if they were any different from the accepted pattern of dress.
Since that time, of course, the patterns have changed: the typical office worker may now be wearing the blue shirt, and laborer a white shirt; but the importance of dress has not decreased. Other investigators in recent years have helped to establish its significance in the lives of individuals at various age levels in different social and economic groups.
