阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

Today just as technology changed the face of industry，farms have undergone an

“agricultural revolution”.0n the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power.

One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer.A few forward—looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently.The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant，how much livestock to buy，when to sell their products，and how much profit they can expect.Many computer companies bave been developing special computer programs just for farmers in the future，farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs.Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm，students at agicultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural

courses.There can he no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even nore in the future.While the old time farm depended on horse power.and modern farms depend on machine power，farms of the future will depend on computer power.

Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robet.a real“mechanized hired hand”that wilt be able to move and, in some ways,think like a human being. Agricultural engineers believe that computer aided robots will make amazing changes in farming within two decades.Unlike farmers of the present.farmers of the future will find that many day—to一day tasks will be done for them.Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear sheep，drive tractors, and harvest fruit.Even complex iobs will be done by robots.For example，in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the

barn，then connect them to the milking machines，watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished.In the future，this will be done by robots.In addition.when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure.The complete modernization of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.

The mother and son participated in a new study that suggests youth from military families may have higher stress levels and emotional problems than other teens.

The study found an association between how long a parent had heen deployed in the last three years and the difficulties that children faced.

It also found a link between the mental health of the nondeployed parent at home and the well-being of the child.If the parent is doing worse, the child is doing worse，pointing to the importance of also providing support to parents，Chandra said.

“The main parent at home is trying to juggle so many balls that some of those balls get drupped.”she said. “I find it hard to believe that you call do it all, and so by virtue of that，since I’m the adult in the picture sometimes I don’t have time to listen to my kids.”

Some of the soures of difficulty during deployment that children mentioned were taking on more household responsibilities and missing school activities.she said.

When the parent returned home，children said it was hard to get to know him or her again.and some were worried about the next deployment.Parents’mood changes and how their mothers and fathers were getting along were also challenges.

Every year more people recognize that it is wrong to kill wildlife for “sport.” Progress in this direction is slow hecause shouting is not a sport for watching，and only those few who take part realize the cruelty and destruction.

The number of gunners.However, grows rapidly.Children too young to develop proper judgments through independent thought are led a long way away by their gunning parents.They are subjected to advertisements of gun producers who describe shooting as good for their health and gun-carrying as a way of putting redder blood in the veins (血管).They are persuaded by gunner magazines with stories honoring the chase and the kill.In school they view motion pictures which are supposedly meant to teach them how to deal with arms safely but which are actually designed to stimulate a desire to own a gun.Wildlife is disappearing because of shooting and because of the loss of wild—land habitat.Habitat loss will continue with our increasing population，but can we slow the loss of wildlife caused by shooting? There doesn't seem to be any chance if the serious condition of our birds is not improved.

Wildlife belongs to everyone and not to the gunners alone.Although most people do not shoot, they seem to forgive shooting for sport because they know little or nothing about it.

The only answer, then, is to bring the truth about sport shooting to the great majority of people.

Now, it is time to realize that animals have the same right to life as we do and that there is nothing fair or right about a person with a gun shooting the harmless and beautiful creatures.The gunners like to describe what they do as character-building, but we know that to wound an animal and watch it go through the agony of dying can make nobody happy.If,as they would have you believe，gun-carrying and killing improve human—character，then perhaps we should encourage war.

46.According to the text，most people do not seem to be against hunting because

A.they have little knowledge of it

B.it helps to build human character

C.it is too costly to stop killing wildlife

D.they want to keep wildlife under control

47.The underlined word “agony”in the last paragraph probably means .

A.form B.condition C.pain D.sadness

48.According to the text，the films children watch at school actually .

A.teach them how to deal with guns safely

B.praise hunting as character-bullding

C.describe hunting as an exercise

D.encourage them to have guns of their own

49.It can be inferred from the text that the author seems to .

A.blame the majority of people

B.worry about the existence of wildlife

C.beinfavet of war

D.be in support of character-building

50.Which of the following words can best describe the author’s attitude towards gun—carry—ing?

A.Supportive. B.Negative. C.Uncertain. D.Approving.

D

Canadian experts have found that so—called self-help books may actually do more harm than good to people who really need help.Researchers say that individuals with low respect felt much worse after repeating positive statements about themselves.

In their study, psychologists Joanne Wood and John lee sought to determine how positive thinking affected people with different levels of self—confidence.They questioned dozens of people both male and female，analyzed their self-worth and optimism by means of the standard psychological methods and then asked them to write down their thoughts and feelings.The scoring system ranged from 0 to 35.

During the experiment, the researchers asked a total of 68 participants to repeat the self—help book phrase.”I am a lovable person.”After that they measured the participants’moods and their feelings about themselves.The results revealed that the participants in the low self—respect group who repeated the mantra，were feeling much worse afterwards，when comparod to other participants in low self-respect group who did not repeat the phrase.Those with low self-respect who repeated the phrase scored ao average of 10 points.Their counterparts with equally low self—respect who were not asked to repeat the statement，were able to score a little higher average of l7 points.

However，individuals with high self—respect reported feeling better after repeating the positive self-statement---but only slightly.They scored an average of 31 points, compared with an average of 25 for those with equally high self-respect who did not repeat the phrase.

Professor Wood urged those who promote self-help books，magazinesl and television shows to stop telling people that simply repeating a positive mantra could change one's life. First，people start following this idea and feel like they are not alone.They are told that all they have to do is just to read that book and then to repeat these positive statements in a hope that things will be better,and when it does not work for them and they realize that nothing gets better，then it is really frustration to people.

Researchers concluded：“Repeating positive self—statements may benefit certain people such as individuals with high self-respect but discourage the very people who need confidence the most.”

51.The experts tried to find out，when repeating positive self-statements， .

A.whether males or females will get more benefit from self-help books

B.the different influences on people with different levels of self-confidence

C.which group of people self-help books will do the greatest harm to

D.who will get the least benefit from self-help book

52.How many points did the low self—respect participants get after repeating the self—help book phrase?

A.An average of l7 points.

B.An average of 25 points

C.An average of 31 points.

D.An average of l0 points.

53.So—called self-help books do some good to .

A.people lacking confidence

B.people with problems to settle urgently

C. people with high self-respect

D.people repeating positive self-statements

54.Which of the following statements isTRUE according to the passage?

A.Simply repeating a positive mantra couldn't possibly change one’s life.

B.All the participants will slightly benefit from the positive self-statement.

C.Believing in positive self-statements will result in great failures in the end.

D.The positive self-statement can greatly encourage people with high self-respect.

55.What do the researchers think of so—called self-help books?

A.They value them.

B.They think little of them.

C They promote them.

D.They get puzzled with ttmm.

Americans usually consider themselves a friendly people. Their friendships，however，tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures.It is not uncommon for Americans to have only one close friend during their lifetime，and consider other “friends”to be iust social acquaintances.This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans do not like to be dependent on other people.They tend to“compartmentalize”friendships, having “friends at wllrk”, “fritrods on

the softball team”, “family friends”，etc.

Because the United States is a highly active society，full of movement and change.

people always seem to be on the go.In this highly changed atmosphere，Americans can sometimes seem brusque or impatient.They want to get to know you as quickly as possible and then move on to something else.Sometimes，early on，they will ask you questions that you may feel are very personal. No insult is intended;the questions usually grow out of their genuine interest or curiosity，and their impatience to get to the heart of the matter.And the same goes for you.If you do not understand certain American behavior or you want to know more about them.do not hesitate to ask them questions.Americans are usually eager to explain all about their country or anything “American”in which you may be interested.So much so in fact that you may become tired of listening.It doesn't matter，because Americans

tend to be uncomfortable with silence during a conversation.Tbey would rather talk about the weather of the latest sports scores，for example，than deal with silence.

0n the other hand, don’t expect Americans to be knowledgeable about international geography or world affairs，unless those subjects directly involve the United States.Because the Unitcd States is not surrounded by many other nations, some Americans tend to ignore the rest of the world.

56.What is the main idea of the first paragraph?( no more than l5 words)

57.The underlined phrase “on the go”means .(no more than 5 words)

58.What would Americans prefer to talk about in order to carry on a comfortable conversation? (no more than l0 words)

59. According to the customs mentioned in the passage，what would you do if you want to know something about America?(no more than l0 words)

60. Why don’t Americans know much about international geography or world affairs?

(no more than 10 words)
