Section B
Directions: There are
several passages in this section. 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.
Passage
One
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the
following passage.
Because
Ireland is an island geographically near the
mainland of the United Kingdom,
English rulers
have fought since the Middle-English Ages to
retain political control over it. Attracted
by
the lush farmland, English and Scottish landowners
settled there, and in time of famine or political
unrest, the local workers suffered, while
their landlords were cushioned by their wealth.
The history
of modern Ireland is, in fact,
largely a story of antagonism and resentment
between the Irish and
their English and
Scottish rulers.
Since the 1920s,
Ireland has been divided into two parts: Northern
Ireland (Ulster) and
the Republic of Ireland
(Eire). The north is still part of the United
Kingdom and is predominantly
Protestant; the
south is an independent republic and is mainly
Catholic. The majority in Ulster accept
this
political compromise, but the active and mainly
Catholic minority are fighting for union with the
independent republic of Southern Ireland. The
IRA, the Irish Republican Army, have mounted
bombing campaigns in military and civil
targets in Ulster and England. They have sent
letter-bombs to
public figures, they have shot
fellow Irishmen who support the British or belong
to opposing, and
now equally militant
Protestant groups. As a result of this, the
British have stationed an army in
Belfast, the
IRA have been outlawed, and several of them have
spent many years in prison or have
died in
support of their cause. Whether this level of
violence and repression is justifiable, and
whether the violence that could result from
political change would be worthwhile are the
controversial issues that divide everybody
involved.
31.
It suggested
that the central problem is the relationship
between _________.
A) Britain and Ireland
B) Ulster and Eire
C) Catholics
and Protestants
D) the Irish
Republican Army and Ulster
正确答案： A

problem is _________.
A) a few years old
B) about 80 years old
C) many
centuries old
D) about three centuries
old

33.

A) prohibit

C) suppress
D) declare illegal
正确答案： D
34.

_________.
A) only in England
B)
when public figures talk about Ireland
C) only in Northern Ireland
D) in
England and Northern Ireland
正确答案： D
35.

controversy is about _________.
A) freedom
B) political change
C) the use
of violence
D) injustice
正确答案：
B
Passage Two
Questions 36 to
40 are based on the following passage.
The past ages of man have all been carefully
labeled by anthropologists. When the
time
comes for anthropologists to turn their attention
to the twentieth century, they will surely
choose the label “Legless Man”.
Histories of the time will go something like this:
“in the twentieth century, people
forgot how
to use their legs. Men and women moved about in
cars, buses and trains from a very early
age.
There were lifts and escalators in all large
buildings to prevent people from walking. The
surprising thing is that they didn’t use their
legs even when they went on holiday. They built
cable
railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top
of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on
earth were
marred by the presence of large car
parks.”
The future history books
might also record that we were deprived of the use
of our
eyes. In our hurry to get from one
place to another, we failed to see anything on the
way. Air travel
gives you a bird’s-eye view of
the world ― or even less if the wing of the
aircraft happens to get in
your way. When you
travel by car or train a blurred image of the
countryside constantly smears the
windows. And
as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. It
is perfectly summed up in the words of
the old
song: “I joined the navy to see the world, and
what did I see? I saw the sea.” The typical
twentieth-century traveler is the man
who always says “I’ve been there.” You mention the
remotest, most evocative place and someone is
bound to say “I’ve been there” ― meaning, “I
drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the
way to somewhere else.”
When you
travel at high speeds, the present means nothing:
you live mainly in the
future because you
spend most of your time looking forward to
arriving at some other place. By
traveling
like this, you suspend all experience; the present
ceases to be a reality: you might just as
well
be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand,
lives constantly in the present. For him
traveling and arriving are one and the same
thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he
makes.
He experiences the present moment with
his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At
the end of
his journey he feels a delicious
physical weariness. He knows that sound.
Satisfying sleep will be his:
the just reward
of all true travelers.
36.
Nowadays, anthropologists tend to label men
“Legless” because ________.
A) people
forget how to use his legs
B) people
prefer cars, buses and trains
C) lifts
and escalators prevent people from walking
D) there are a lot of transportation devices
正确答案： B

there” mean?

D) I stayed there for a long time.
