　　Directions: There are three 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 center.

　　Passage 1

Today the game reserves(獵物保護區)of East Africa are facing a number of threats. (76)Although they earn considerable revenue(收入) by attracting tourists, they take up land which is increasingly sought by the local people. While these reserves feed and protect animals, they are in danger of turning into barren areas or deserts. Trees, shrubs and grass are gradually being eaten by grazing herds.

Another problem is to be found in the changing attitudes of the animals themselves. Many of them are losing their hereditary(天生)fear of man. In this way they may become a danger to visitors and thus to themselves. Attacks on vehicles are beginning to increase, and it is possible that the problems will become serious in a few years’ time.

The problem of shortage of land is not a simple one. (77) As the population increases, more and more people look hungrily at the land set aside for game reserves. They claim that a Government’s first duty is to its inhabitants and not to tourists or to wild animals. Despite the income obtained from tourism, this is an argument which it is difficult to answer satisfactorily.

A problems Facing East African Tourists

B They may seek land for their own cultivation (耕種).

C The animals may be a danger to them and their village.

D They may dislike living in a deserted plac

答案:B

[分析] 第三段談到，由於“shortage of land”和“the population increases”，因此“people look hungrily at the land set aside for game reserves”，故本題選B。

3.

______ is causing soil erosion(侵蝕)in the game reserves.

A The bad weather

B The disappearance of vegetation which is eaten by the animals

[分析] 根據第一段最後二句，本題應選B。

[分析] 當地政府保留獵物保護區的主要原因是，“they earn considerable revenue by attracting tourists”，故本題選C。

5.

The word "this" refers to ______ in the last sentence of the passage.

A the income obtained from tourists who park their cars in the town

B the revenue derived from tourists who visit the game reserves

C the problem concerning game reserves in East Africa

　　Passage 2

(78)Professor Martin’s report says that children who attend a number of different schools, because their parents have to move around the country, probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs, says Professor Martin, that an unusually large number of such children are mentally (精神上) affected.

The professor says, "It’s true. My personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. However, our findings are based on research and not on any personal feelings that I or my assistants may have on the subject."

Captain Thomas James, an Army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two, said, "I’ve never heard such rubbish. Taking me for example, no harm is done to the education of my children who change schools regularly---if they keep to the same system(系統) ,as in our Army schools. In my experience Army children--and I’ve known quite a few of them--are as well - adjusted(善於適應的)as any others, if not more so. What the Professor doesn’t appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situations children will adapt(適應)much better than grown - ups."

When this was put to Professor Martin, he said that at no time had his team suggested that all such children were backward or mentally affected in some way, but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency (趨向).

"Our findings show that while the very bright child can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress in studies, the majority of children suffer from constantly having to enter a new learning situation.

6.

According to Professor Martin’s report, ______.

A children have to go to different schools because of their parents’ moving around

B children make slow progress because they are mentally affected

C signs are shown that many children are mentally affected by their studies

D changing from one school to another too often has ill effect on children’s studies

答案:D

[分析] 第一段中講到馬丁教授的報告中説孩子們經常換學校會使孩子在學業上進步緩慢。

7.

Which of the following is true according to what the professor says?

A He doesn’t quite agree with the report.

B The conclusion is reasonable without any personal feelings.

C His feelings has some effect on the research.

D His assistants may have effect on his feelin

答案:B

[分析] 從個人情感上講馬丁教授認為孩子們應該呆在一所學校中，這正與他在第一段中的報告結果相符，而他們報告的.內容是基於調查研究而並非基於個人情感。

8.

From the passage, we know that Captain James’ children ______.

A enjoy changing schools instead of staying in one school

B adapt much better than grown- ups

C discuss the same system regularly with their father

D can get used to the Army school education

答案:D

[分析] Captain James不同意馬丁教授的觀點，他認為他的孩子就不受換學校的影響。

9.

In this passage, the view of Captain James is that ______.

A children are generally well- adjusted

B quite a few children don’t keep to the system

C all children are mentally affected in some way

D children can adapt more easily than grown- ups

答案:D

[分析] 由第三段最後一句可知，Captain James認為孩子們比成人更易適應環境。

10.

What is the idea that Professor Martin sticks to?

A Very bright children have rich experience in changing schools

B Changing schools regularly is not good for most children

C Changing schools regularly is good for most children

D Not changing schools regularly is not good for most children

答案:B

[分析] 馬丁教授堅持他的觀點，即頻繁換學校對多數孩子不好。見最後一段。

　　Passage 3

(79)Most people have heard of Shakespeare and probably know something of the plays that he wrote. However, not everybody knows much about the life of this remarkable man, except perhaps that he was born in the market town of Stratford- upon - Avon and that he married a woman called Anne Hathaway. We know nothing of his school life. We do not know, for example, how long it lasted, but we presume that he attended the local grammar school, where the principal subject taught was Latin.

Nothing certain is known of what he did between the time he left school and his departure for London. According to a local legend, he was beaten and even put in prison for stealing rabbits and deer from the estate of a neighboring landowner, Sir Thomas Lucy. It is said that because of this he was forced to run away from his native place. A different legend says that he was apprenticed to a Stratford butcher, but did not like the life and for this reason decided to leave Stratford.

Whatever caused him to leave the town of his birth; the world can be grateful that he did so. What is certain is that he set his foot on the road to fame when he arrived in London. (80) It is said that at first he was without money or friends there, but that he earned a little by taking care of the horses of the gentlemen who attended the plays at the theatre. In time, as he became a familiar figure to the actors in the theatre, they stopped and spoke to him. They found his conversation so brilliant that finally he was invited to join their company.

11.

Shakespeare ______ in his early life.

A attended a public school

B lived in London

C studied Latin

D was put in prison for stealing cattle

答案:B

[分析] 根據一、二、三段可知，他上公立學校，學習拉丁文，因偷牲畜而被投到監獄都是猜測和傳説。只有生活在倫敦是事實。

12.

Why was he forced to leave his native place according to this passage?

A Because he didn’t want to go to school.

B Because he left for London to become famous.

C Because he had stolen deer and was beaten.

D No one knows for certain.

答案:D

[分析] 根據二、三段可知，沒有人知道在他離開學校到去倫敦之前發生過什麼，也不知是什麼使他離開他的出生地。

13.

What is the reason why the world can be grateful?

A He wrote many world- famous plays.

B He became a good rider.

C He was an actor

D He was an traveller.

答案:A

[分析] 見第三段，世界人民感激莎士比亞是因為他寫出了許多著名的戲劇。

14.

"In time, as he became a familiar figure... ", "In time" means ______.

A on time

B sometimes

C some time later

D some time

答案:C

[分析] some time later“一段時間後”;on time“及時”;sometimes“有時”;some time“一段時間”。

15.

The passage can be entitled as ______.

A the Early Life of Shakespeare

B Shakespeare’ s Life in London

C shakespeare’s Role in Performance

D Shakespeare’s Later Life

答案:A

[分析] 根據全文，莎士比亞的早期生活是最佳題目。
