第二部分（阅读理解）
Ⅰ.认真阅读下面两篇短文，每篇短文后有五个问题。根据短文的内容，从A, B, C, D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案，并将答案的字母写在答题纸上。
Passage One
Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.
One of the advantages of being self-employed is that the profit the business makes belongs to the owner. If the self-employed person in successful in business, he or she has the chance to earn a great deal of money and even become wealthy. The profit earned by a self-employed person is the reward for his or her effort, ability, and creativity. Thus, a second advantage of being self-employed is that a person's intelligence and abilities have a direct effect on his or her earnings. People who have outstanding abilities or intelligence often find they can earn far more through self-employment than they can through working as an employee. A third advantage of being self-employed is that a person can control both the number of hours worked and the hours of work. While not all self-employed people are completely free to choose whatever hours they want to work, most of them have more control over this area than do the people who for salaries or wages.
As with most things in life, being self-employed is not without problems. First, being one's own boss places the responsibility for success directly on that individual's shoulders. Abilities and intelligence will be put to the test. Everyone has some weaknesses and is less capable in some things than in others. These weaknesses will affect how successful a self-employed person is. Second, though the self-employed can earn considerable profits with a successful business, losses can force them out of business and, in some instances, place them in debt. A third disadvantage concerns income security. Self-employed people have no guaranteed wage. Their earnings can vary greatly from year to year, depending on business conditions. Salaried people, on the other hand, can generally count on continued earnings from year to year. In addition, salaried people often enjoy fringe benefits that mean greater peace of mind. Fringe benefits are all of the benefits provided for employees in addition to wages and salaries. One of these benefits may be insurance paid for by the employer that continues the employee's salary in the event of sickness or accident. Many self-employed people do not have such protection, unless they put money aside themselves.
61. A self-employed person is one _____________. A. who can make a big profit B. who is his or her own boss
C. whose business has a better chance to success D. who employs no others but his or her relatives
62. One of the advantages self-employment offers is that self-employed people ________. A. may decide when and how long they work
B. have outstanding abilities and intelligence
C. may get more business support from the government D. are easy to earn money and ready to become wealthy 63. One problem of self-employment is that ___________. A. there is no guarantee of income security
3
B. it is comparatively week in management
C. an employer's earnings have nothing to do with business conditions D salaries may vary greatly from person to person
64. We may guess from the context that fringe benefits _____________. A. are all the money provided for employees
B. are benefits an employee receives apart from wages and salaries C. consist of those that are paid by insurance companies
D. result from business activities the employer has organized 65. The author's attitude towards self-employment is ____________.
A. positive B. negative C. indifferent D. objective
Passage Two
Questions 6 to 70 are based on the following passage.
Every living thing has what scientists call a biological clock that controls behavior. It tells plants when to form flowers and insects when to leave protective cocoon（茧）and fly away. And it tells animals and human beings when to awaken, sleep, and seek food. It controls our body temperatures, the release of some hormones（激素）and even dreams.
Events outside the plant and animal affect its actions. Scientists recently found that a tiny animal called Siberian hamster changes the color of its fur because of the number of hours of daylight. In shorter days of winter its fur becomes white. The fur becomes gray-brown in longer hours of daylight in summer.
Inner signals control other biological clocks. German scientists found that some internal one seems to order birds to begin their migration flights two times each year. Birds prevented from flying become restless when it is time for the trip. But they become calm again when the time of the flight has ended.
A mix of outside and internal events controls some biological clocks; such things as heartbeat and the daily change from sleep to walking take place because of both external and internal signals.
Scientists are beginning to learn which parts of the brain contain the biological clocks. A researcher at Harvard University ─ Dr. Martin Moore Ede ─ said a small group of cells near the front of the brain seems to control the timing of some of our actions. Probably there are other cells to control other body activities. He is studying how they affect the way we do our work. Most of us have great difficulty if we must often change to different work hours. It can take many days for a human body to accept a major change in work hours. Industrial officials should have a better understanding of biological clocks and how they affect workers. He said such an understanding could reduce sickness and accidents at work, and would help increase production.
66. Which of the following can not be controlled by biological clocks? A. Dreams. B. when and what to eat.
C. Body temperature. D. When the flowers should open.
67. The author mentions Siberian hamster to illustrate that _________. A. every living thing has a biological clock
B. Siberian hamster is a highly adaptive species
C .biological clocks can change an animal's skin color D. external factors can affect the behavior of an organism 68. From the passage we can infer that __________.
A. biological clocks are responsible for all the human behaviors B. biological clocks are too mysterious to be explained
C. heartbeat and some daily activities affect biological clocks
D. studies on biological clocks can throw some light on human actions
69. Why should industrial officials have a better understanding of biological clocks? A. Because some cells in the brain are very important. B. Because it is very hard to change working time.
C. Because it may lead to improvement of work efficiency.
D. Because it takes a long time for a person to get used to the shift of work hours. 70. The best title for the passage could be _________. A. A Brief Account of Biological Clocks B. Biological Clocks and Work Efficiency C. How Biological Clocks Work
D. The location of Biological Clocks
Passage Three
Questions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:
4
In the past, operations were difficult. Until the middle of the eighteen fifties, surgery was very dangerous. Many patients died after even the smallest operations. This was because bacteria entered the cuts in the patients’ bodied and started infection. In some countries, up to 90 percent of patients died from infection after operations. In 1865, however, Joseph Lister, a British surgeon, found an answer to the problem. He used an “antiseptic” during and after operations. This killed the dangerous bacteria and most of his patients lived. Since then, surgeons have used antiseptics in all operations.
Surgery has developed in many important ways since the day of Joseph Lister. Today, when patients go to hospital for an operation, they can expect the best treatment, in clean and hygienic conditions.
71. Operations were difficult and dangerous until_______. A.1850 B. the middle of 1850
C. the middle of the fifties of the eighteenth century D. the middle of the fifties of the nineteenth century 72. In the passage, surgery means__________.
A. The performing of an operation B. cure C. treatment D. medicine
73. In the past, up to 90 percent of patients died after operations mainly because__________. A. bacteria entered the cuts in the patients’ bodies and infection took place B. the conditions in hospitals were bad C. the skill of surgeons was not so good D. there were no good medicine at that time
74. Which topic of the following best suits the passage? A. Operations were difficult in the past
B. The devotion of Joseph Lister to medical science C. Surgery has become safer D. Developments in surgery 75. Joseph Lister was________.
A. a Frenchman B. a German C. an Englishman D. an American
Passage Four
Questions 76 to 80 are based on the following passage:
Some 4000 Americans ambitions to become physicians are studying for their M. D. s abroad. Many were rejected by U.S. medical schools simply because there was no room. Last year, for example, some 13,000 of 35,000 would-be physicians who applied to U.S. schools were accepted. Of those who were turned down, well over 600 are trying the foreign route.
But gaining admittance to a good foreign school may be a problem. British medical schools give priority to Britons , and Canada’s world-renowned McGill University School of Medicine takes only a handful of well qualified Americans annually. But several schools do welcome U.S. medical students---if they can master the local language. More than 500 Americans are enrolled in the Belgian universities at Brussels and Louvain , for example. Some 800 attend the Italian University at Bologna; 175 at Rome. Mexico’s Autonomous University of Guadalajara numbers 1,300 gringos among its 4,000 students.
Despite difficulties abroad, many Americans complete their medical educations, and manage to win the respect of their professors and classmates. One second-year student at Louvain has a simple explanation for those successes: “ Anyone who comes here to be motivated. You have to learn a new language, the school is constant hard work, and it’s difficult to get back into the States to practice”.
Before they can intern or practice in the United States, graduates of foreign schools must pass a special examination required by medical-education authorities. The tough test is designed primarily to weed out those who are unable to speak English or whose medical education is not up to U.S. standards.
76. Which of the following is true about U.S. would-be physicians? A. America medical schools have superfluous applicants
B. language is a big problem all the American students applying to foreign medical schools have to face.
C. Graduates from both American and foreign medical schools should take the same test before practice D. As many as one-third of last year’s applicants of medical schools are now applying to foreign schools
77. Which is following is true about foreign medical education ?
