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 a single line through the centre. www.test99.com

Passage 1www.test99.com

Test99Opinion polls are now beginning to show that, whoever is to blame and whatever happens from now on, high unemployment is probably here to say. This means we shall have to find ways of sharing the available employment more widely.www.test99.com

Test99But we need to go further. We must ask some fundamental questions about the future work. Should we continue to treat employment as the norm? Should we not rather encourage many ways for self-respecting people to work? Should we not create conditions in which many of us can work for ourselves, rather than for an employer? Should we not aim to revive the household and the neighborhood, as well as the factory and the office, as centers of production and work?www.test99.com

Test99The industrial age has been the only period of human history in which most peoples work has taken the form of jobs. The industrial age may now becoming to an end, and some of the changes in work patterns which it brought may have to be reverseD.This seems a daunting thought. But, in fact, it could offer the prospect of a better future for work. Universal employment, as its history shows, has not meant economic freedom.www.test99.com

Test99Employment became widespread when the enclosures of the 17th and 18th centuries made many people dependent on paid work by depriving them of the use of the land, and thus of the means to provide a living for themselves. Then the factory system destroyed the cottage industries and removed work from peoples homes. Later, as transport improved, first by rail and then by road, people commuted longer distances to their places of employment until, eventually, many peoples work lost all connection with their home lives and the places in which they live.www.test99.com

Test99Meanwhile, employment put women at a disadvantage. In preindustrial times, men and women had shared the productive work of the household and village community. Now it became customary for the husband to go out to paid employment, leaving the unpaid work of the home and families to his wife. Tax and benefit regulations still assume this norm today, and restrict more flexible sharing of work roles between the sexes.www.test99.com

Test99It was not only women whose work status suffereD.As employment became the dominant form of work, young people and old people were exclude—a problem now, as more teenagers become frustrated at school and more retired people want to live active lives.www.test99.com

Test99All this may now have to change.www.test99.com

Test99The time has certainly come to switch some effort and resources away from the idealist goal creating jobs for all, to the urgent practical task of helping many people to manage without full-time jobs. www.test99.com

Passage 2www.test99.com

Test99University Physics is intended for students of science and engineering. Primary emphasis is on physical principles and problem-solving; historical background and specialized practical applications have been given a place of secondary importance. Many worked-out examples and an extensive collection of problems are included with each chapter.www.test99.com

Test99In this new edition, the basic philosophy and outline and the balance between depth of treatment and breadth of subject-matter coverage are unchanged from previous editions. We have tried to preserve those features that users of previous editions have found desirable, while incorporating a number of changes that should enhance the books usefulness.www.test99.com

Test99The textbook is adaptable to a wide variety of course outlines. The entire textbook can be used for an intensive course two or three semesters in length. For a less intensive course, many instructors will want to omit certain chapters or sections to tailor the book to their individual needs. The arrangement of this edition facilitates this kind of flexibility.www.test99.com

Test99Conversely, however, many topics that were regarded a few years ago as of peripheral (外围的)importance and were omitted from introductory courses have now come to the fore again in the life sciences, earth and space sciences, and environmental problems. An instructor who wishes to stress these kinds of applications will find this textbook a useful source for discussion of the appropriate principles.www.test99.com

Test99In any case, it should be emphasized that instructors should not feel constrained (受约束的)to work straight through the book from cover to cover. Many chapters are, of course, inherently sequential in nature, but within this general limitation instructors should be encouraged to select among the contents those chapters that fit their needs, omitting material that is not relevant to the objectives of a a particular course. www.test99.com

Passage 3www.test99.com

Test99Hamletfish are cautious lovers. Each evening at twilight, many times an evening in fact, a pair of them will leave the safety of their Caribbean reef and rush a few yards off the seafloor. Positioning themselves side-to-side, head-to-tail they hurriedly release their eggs and sperm. Then they turn sharply for home, leaves their gametes to mix in silence. www.test99.com

Test99Ichthyologist Phillip Lobel of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution has found that hamlet fish and many other fish emit “cries of ecstasy at the appropriate moment. www.test99.com

Test99Biologists have long known that a few fish make sounds. The toadfish, for example, is named for its low call, which can be heard even above water. Underwater, however, human ears dont work well. As a result researchers didnt notice how common fish calls were until Lobel started diving with a video camera and an underwater microphone like the kind the Navy uses to listen for submarines.www.test99.com

Test99Lobel has learned that the fish playing the role of the male-hamletifish switches roles from one tryst to the next-emits a series of short, low sounds. The female responds with a downward, sweeping sound like a slide whistle. The purpose to these calls, says Lobel, is probably to synchronize spawning, so that sperm and egg have a fighting chance of actually meeting in the water.www.test99.com

Test99Then, at the moment of spawning, the female flutters her pectoral fins, contracts her abdominal muscles to squeeze out the eggs, and lets out a soft cry, which in part may simply be the sound of her swim bladder vibrating from all that muscle contraction. “The sound is not a scream, its only as loud as conversation, says Lobel.www.test99.com

Test99Lobel has since recorded sounds from about two dozen other fish species. He thinks fish calls, like some birdcalls, may be a means by which fish recognize suitable mates, and that fish of the same species may even communicate in regional dialects. “Lots of people sit and watch their little fish in their aquarium, Lobel says, “Well, its like looking at a birdcage behind sound-proof glass. These things are all making sounds. www.test99.com

11. The primary purpose of this passage is to .www.test99.com
A.refute a misconception that fish dont make soundswww.test99.com
B.prove a new discoverywww.test99.com
C.explain the time when hamletfish make soundswww.test99.com
D.demonstrate the fact that fish are romantic as human beings www.test99.com

12. Which of the following is NOT true about fish calls according to this passage?www.test99.com
A.Fish calls are commonly regarded as rare.www.test99.com
B.Some of sounds produced by fish are not uttered from their mouths.www.test99.com
C.Fish calls may be a means by which fish found their mates.www.test99.com
D.No sounds can be heard from fish if a person stands on the ground. www.test99.com

13. Which of the following best explains “the appropriate moment for fish to emit cries of ecstasy mentioned in the first paragraph?www.test99.com
A.When Phillip Lobel was under the water with a video camera and a microphone.www.test99.com
B.When one fish has a tryst with another.www.test99.com
C.When the sperm and egg of the fish have a chance to meet in the water.www.test99.com
D.When fish are spawning. www.test99.com

14. Which of the following is a correct inference from the passage?www.test99.com
A.Few biologists have the idea fish may produce sounds underwater.www.test99.com
B.A person underwater may clearly hear the call of another persons above water.www.test99.com
C.Lobels original intention to do the experiment was to test whether hamletfish would produce mating calls.www.test99.com
D.A hamletfish may play the roles of both male and female at different times. www.test99.com

15. The author mentioned birdcalls in the last paragraph in order .www.test99.com
A.to demonstrate that birds can be classified into certain fish specieswww.test99.com
B.to illustrate that birds, just like fish, produce calls to find their mateswww.test99.com
C.to prove birdcalls are more common than fishcallswww.test99.com
D.to further explain that fish is a kind of animal that may also make sounds when necessary www.test99.com

Passage 4www.test99.com

Test99With human footprints on the moon, radio telescopes listening for messages from alien creatures (who may or may not exist), technicians looking for celestial (天体的)and planetary sources of energy to support our civilization, orbiting telescopes data hinting at planetary systems around other stars, and political groups trying to figure out how to save humanity from nuclear warfare that would damage life and elimate on a planet-wide scale, an astronomy book published today enters a world different from the one that greeted books a generation ago. Astronomy has broadened to involve our basic circumstances and our mysterious future in the universe. With eclipese and space missions broadcast live, and with NASA(［美国］国家航空和宇宙航行局)，Europe, and the USSR (苏联)planning and building permanent space stations, astronomy offers adventure for all people, an outward exploratory thrust that may one day be seen as an alternative to mindless consumerism, ideological bickering (争吵)，and wars to control dwinding resources on a closed, finite Earth.www.test99.com

Test99Todays astronomy students not only seek an up-to-date summary of astronomical facts: they ask, as people have asked for ages, about our basic relations to the rest of the universe. They may study astronomy partly to seek points of contact between science and other human endeavors: philosophy, history, politics, environmental action, even the arts and religion.www.test99.com

Test99Science fiction writers and special effect artists on recent films help todays students realize that unseen worlds of space are real places—not abstract concepts. Todays students are citizens of a more real, more vast cosmos than conceptualized by students of a decade ago.www.test99.com

Test99In designing this edition, the Wadsworh editors and I have tried to respond to these developments. Rather than jumping at the start into murky waters of cosmology (宇宙论)，I have begun with the viewpoint of ancient people on Earth and worked outward across the universe. This method of organization automatically (if loosely) reflects the order of humanitys discoveries about astronomy and provides a unifying theme of increasing distance and scale. www.test99.com

16. This passage is most probably taken from .www.test99.com
A.an article of popular sciencewww.test99.com
B.the introduction of a book of astronomy www.test99.com
C.a lecture given by the author to astronomy students www.test99.com

C.to introduce some newly established space stations www.test99.com
D.to illustrate that the world today is different in many aspects from that of a generations ago www.test99.com

18. The author thinks that the growing interest in space exploration among people on Earth will probably lead to .www.test99.com
A.all people having chances of travelling in spacewww.test99.com
B.the realization of permanent settlement on other planetswww.test99.com
