Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choice
20、s marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to a
21、ccept ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion.Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal
22、with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boys hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the la
23、test fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull.What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In c
24、old climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more American men have followed example.There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion. In th
25、e 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War , they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter until the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again.Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is n
26、o longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the “untidy“ look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashions of the t
27、op fashion houses.At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choose our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater; and it would be discourteous to visit some distinguished scholar lo
28、oking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depressed if you dont look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and youll see that no one else does either!31.The author thinks that people are _.A) satisfied with their appearance B) concerned about appea
29、rance in old age C) far from neglecting what is in fashion D) reluctant to follow the trends in fashion 正确答案： C32.Fashion magazines and TV advertisements seem to link fashion to _.A) confidence in life B) personal dress C) individual hair style D) personal future 正确答案： A33.Causes of fashions are _.A
30、) uniform B) varied C) unknown D) inexplicable 正确答案： B34.Present-day society is much freer and easier because it emphasizes _.A) uniformity B) formality C) informality D) individuality 正确答案： D35.Which is the main idea of the last paragraph?A) Care about appearance in formal situations. B) Fashion in
31、 formal and informal situations. C) Ignoring appearance in informal situations. D) Ignoring appearance in all situations. 正确答案： APassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.American no longer expect public figures, whether in speech or in writing, to command the English language
32、 with skill and gift. Nor do they aspire to such command themselves. In his latest book, Doing Our Own Thing: The Degradation of Language and Music and Why We Should, Like, Care, John McWhorter, a linguist and controversialist of mixed liberal and conservative views, sees the triumph of 1960s counte
33、r-culture as responsible for the decline of formal English.Blaming the permissive 1960s is nothing new, but this is not yet another criticism against the decline in education. Mr. McWhorters academic speciality is language history and change, and he sees gradual disappearance of “whom”, for example,
34、 to be natural and no more regrettable than the loss of the case-endings of Old English.But the cult of the authentic and the personal, “doing our own thing”, has spelt the death of formal speech, writing, poetry and music. While even the modestly educated sought an elevated tone when they put pen t
35、o paper before the 1960s, even the most well regarded writing since then has sought to capture spoken English on the page. Equally, in poetry, the highly personal, performative genre is the only form that could claim real liveliness. In both oral and written English, talking is triumphing over speak
36、ing, spontaneity over craft.Illustrated with an entertaining array of examples from both high and low culture, the trend that Mr. McWhorter documents is unmistakable. But it is less clear, to take the question of his subtitle, “Why We Should Like, Care”. As a linguist, he acknowledges that all varie
37、ties of human language, including non-standard ones like Black English, can be powerfully expressive ? there exists no language or dialect in the world that cannot convey complex ideas. He is not arguing, as many do, that we can no longer think straight because we do not talk proper.Russians have a
38、deep love for their own language and carry large chunks of memorized poetry in their heads, while Italian politicians tend to elaborate speech that would seem old-fashioned to most English-speakers. Mr. McWhorter acknowledges that formal language is not strictly necessary, and proposes no radical ed
39、ucation reforms ? he is really grieving over the loss of something beautiful more than useful. We now take our English “on paper plates instead of china”. A shame, perhaps, but probably an inevitable one.36.According to McWhorter, the decline of formal English _.A) is inevitable in radical education
40、 reforms B) is but all too natural in language development C) has caused the controversy over the counter-culture D) brought about changes in public attitudes in the 1960s 正确答案： B37.The word “talking” (Paragraph 3) denotes _.A) formality B) personality C) vividness D) informality 正确答案： D38.Which of
41、the following statements would McWhorter most likely agree to?A) Logical thinking is not necessarily related to the way we talk. B) Black English can be more expressive than Standard English. C) Non-standard varieties of human language are just as entertaining. D) Of all the varieties, Standard Engl
42、ish can best convey complex ideas. 正确答案： A39.The description of Russians love of memorizing poetry shows the authors _.A) interest in their language B) appreciation of their efforts C) struggle against the decline of formal English D) contempt for their old-fashionedness 正确答案： B40.According to the l
43、ast paragraph, “paper plates” is to “china” as _.A) “radical” is to “conservative” B) “informal” is to “formal” C) “functional” is to “artistic” D) “inferior” is to “superior” 正确答案： CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 12 minutes ) Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.
