　　第二部分 閱讀理解 (共兩節(jié)，滿分40分)

　　第一節(jié) (共15小題;每小題2分，滿分30 分)

　　閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該選項涂黑。

　　A

Whoever has made a voyage up the Hudson River must remember the Catskill Mountains. They area branch of the great Appalachian family, and can be seen to the west rising up to a noble height and towering over the surrounding country. When the weather is fair and settled, they are clothed in blue and purple, and print their beautiful shapes on the clear evening sky, but sometimes when it is cloudless, gray steam gathers around the top of the mountains which, in the last rays of the setting sun, will shine and light up like a crown of glory(華麗的皇冠).

　　At the foot of these mountains, a traveler may see light smoke going up from a village.

　　In that village, and in one of the houses (which, to tell the exact truth, was sadly time-worn and weather-beaten), there lived many years ago, a simple, good-natured fellow by the name of Rip Van Winkle .

　　Rip’s great weakness was a natural dislike of all kinds of money-making labor. It could not be from lack of diligence(勤勞), for he could sit all day on a wet rock and fish without saying a word, even though he was not encouraged by a single bite. He would carry a gun on his shoulder for hours, walking through woods and fields to shoot a few birds or squirrels. He would never refuse to help a neighbor, even in the roughest work. The women of the village, too, used to employ him to do such little jobs as their less helpful husbands would not do for them. In a word, Rip was ready to attend to everybody’s business but his own.

　　If left to himself, he would have whistled(吹口哨)life away in perfect satisfaction; but his wife was always mad at him for his idleness(懶散). Morning, noon, and night, her tongue was endlessly going, so that he was forced to escape to the outside of the house — the only side which, in truth, belongs to a henpecked husband.

　　21. Which of the following best describes the Catskill Mountains?

　　A. They are on the west of the Hudson River.

　　B. They are very high and beautiful in this area.

　　C. They can be seen from the Appalachian family.

　　D. They gather beautiful clouds in blue and purple.

　　22. The hero of the story is probably__________.

　　A. hard-working and likes all kinds of work B. idle and hates all kinds of jobs

　　C. simple, idle but very dutiful D. gentle, helpful but a little idle

　　23. The underlined words “henpecked husband” in the last paragraph probably means a man

　　who__________.

　　A. likes hunting B. is afraid of hens

　　C. loves his wife D. is afraid of his wife

　　24. What would be the best title for the text?

　　A. Catskill Mountains. B. A Mountain Village.

　　C. Rip Van Winkle. D. A Dutiful Husband.

　　No one is sure how the ancient Egyptians built the pyramids near Cairo. But a new study suggests they used a little rock ‘n’ roll. Long-ago builders could have attached wooden poles to the stones and rolled them across the sand, the scientists say.

　　“Technically, I think what they’re proposing is possible,” physicist Daniel Bonn said.

　　People have long puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks. And there’s no obvious answer. On average, each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck. The Egyptians somehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away.

　　The most popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths. Many scientists suspect workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板). Then they would have dragged them along paths. To make the work easier, workers may have lubricated the paths either with wet clay or with the fat from cattle. Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand.

　　Evidence from the sand supports this idea. Researchers found small amounts of fat, as well as a large amount of stone and the remains of paths.

　　However, physicist Joseph West thinks there might have been a simpler way. West said, “I was inspired while watching a television program showing how sleds might have helped with pyramid construction. I thought, ‘Why don’t they just try rolling the things?’ “A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides, he realized. That, he notes, should make a block of stone “a lot easier to roll than a square”.

　　So he tried it.

He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram stone block. That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel. Then they placed the block on the ground. They wrapped one end of a rope around the block and pulled. The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths. They calculated that rolling the block required about as much force as moving it along a slippery path.

　　West hasn’t tested his idea on larger blocks, but he thinks rolling has clear advantages over sliding. At least, workers wouldn’t have needed to carry cattle fat or water to smooth the paths.

　　25. It’s widely believed that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site by__________.

　　A. rolling them on roads B. pushing them over the sand

　　C. sliding them on smooth paths D. dragging them on some poles

　　26. The underlined part “lubricated the paths” in Paragraph 4 means__________.

　　A. made the path wet B. made the path hard

　　C. made the path wide D. made the path slippery

　　27. Why is rolling better than sliding according to West?

　　A. Because more force is needed for sliding.

　　B. Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle.

　　C. Because sliding on smooth road is more dangerous.

　　D. Because less preparation on path is needed for rolling.

　　C

　　We live in a technological society where most goods are mass-produced by unskilled labor. Because of this, most people think that craft(手藝) no longer exists.

　　One of the ways these people wrongly support their view is by pointing to 100-year-old homes which are still solid, and arguing that it is the craftsmanship that is responsible for their durability(持久性). “Homes in those days were well-built,” they say. No doubt these homes were well-built, but what these people have done is mix up the quality of material used in the house with the quality of the craftsmanship.

　　Homes today could be built to last just as long as those old homes if people were willing or able to pay the price. For example, more people can no longer afford solid oak stairways, although they were once fairly common in older homes. Nor can they afford the high labor cost of employing a carpenter(木匠) to build the stairway. Yet if someone can pay the high cost, there are still plenty of carpenters around able to make those stairways. And not only would these carpenters know how to build them, they would probably do a better job than carpenters of old.

　　One thing the modern carpenter has which enables him to do a better job is much more advanced tools. Such tools as laser beams and power planes help them lay out a house better and make more precision cuts(精確切割)on the wood. Also, it is not uncommon any more to find carpenters with college degrees and carpenters with a solid knowledge of mathematics, which would enable them to deal with more difficult house designs.

　　The problem of modern quality, then, really boils down to the problem of material, for the modern carpenter is just as able to produce craftsmanship as the carpenter of fifty years ago, but only if given proper material.

　　28. Compared to the carpenters in the past, modern carpenters are__________.

　　A. more successful B. more learned

　　C. more imaginative D. more hardworking

　　29. What does the underlined word “they” (paragraph2) refer to?

　　A. Carpenters who are fond of oak stairways.

　　B. Carpenters who have college degrees.

　　C. people who think highly of carpenters of old

　　D. people who think that modern material is of low quality.

　　30. What does the third paragraph mainly discuss?

　　A. People in the past preferred to use oak to build stairways.

　　B. It is now expensive to employ a carpenter.

　　C. Modern houses last as long as the old one.

　　D. Good carpenters still exist in modern times.

　　31. What would be the best title for the text?

　　A. Is Craft Dead? B. Craft, Back to Life?

　　C. History of Craftsmanship D. Carpenters Today and Yesterday

　　D

　　The values of artistic works, according to cultural relativism(相對主義), are simply reflections of local social and economic conditions. Such a view, however, fails to explain the ability of some works of art to excite the human mind across cultures and through centuries.

History has witnessed the endless productions of Shakespearean plays in every major language of the world. It is never rare to find that Mozart packs Japanese concert halls, as Japanese painter Hiroshige does Paris galleries. Unique works of this kind are different from today’s popular art, even if they began as works of popular art. They have set themselves apart in their timeless appeal and will probably be enjoyed for centuries into the future.

　　In a 1757 essay, the philosopher David Hume argued that because “the general principles of taste are uniform(不變的) in human nature,” the value of some works of art might be essentially permanent. He observed that Homer was still admired after two thousand years. Works of this type, he believed, spoke to deep and unvarying features of human nature and could continue to exist over centuries.

　　Now researchers are applying scientific methods to the study of the universality of art. For example, evolutionary psychology is being used by literary scholars to explain the long-lasting themes and plot devices in fiction. The structures of musical pieces are now open to experimental analysis as never before. Research findings seem to indicate that the creation by a great artist is as permanent an achievement as the discovery by a great scientist.

　　32. According to the passage, what do we know about cultural relativism?

　　A. It introduces different cultural values.

　　B. It explains the history of artistic works.

　　C. It relates artistic values to local conditions.

　　D. It excites the human mind throughout the world.

　　33. In Paragraph 2, the artists are mentioned in order to show that__________.

　　A. great works of art can go beyond national boundaries

　　B. history gives art works special appeal to set them apart

　　C. popular arts are hardly distinguishable from great arts

　　D. great artists are skilled at combining various cultures

　　34. According to Hume, some works of art can exist for centuries because__________.

　　A. they are results of scientific study

　　B. they establish some general principles of art

　　C. they are created by the world’s greatest artists

　　D. they appeal to unchanging features of human nature

　　35. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?

　　A. Are Artistic Values Universal? B. Are Popular Arts Permanent?

　　C. Is Human Nature Uniform? D. Is Cultural Relativism Scientific?
