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.
After the terrorist attack on the World Trade
Center, structural
engineers are trying hard
to solve a question that a month ago would have
been
completely unthinkable: Can building be
designed to withstand catastrophic blasts
inflicted by terrorists?
Ten
days after the terrorist attacks on the twin
towers, structural
engineers from the
University at Buffalo and the Multidisciplinary
Center for
Earthquake Engineering Research
(MCEER) headquartered at UB traveled to ground
zero(被毁现场) as part of a project funded by the
National Science Foundation. “Our
objective in
visiting ground zero was to go and look at the
buildings surrounding
the World Trade Center,
those buildings that are still standing, but that
sustained
damage,” said M. Bruneau, Ph. D.
“Our immediate hope is that we can develop a
better
understanding as to why those buildings
remain standing, while our long-term goal
is
to see whether earthquake engineering technologies
can be married to existing
technologies to
achieve enhanced performance of buildings in the
event of terrorist
attacks,” he added.
Photographs taken by the investigators demonstrate
in startling detail
the monumental damage
inflicted on the World Trade Center towers and
buildings in
the vicinity. One building
a block away from the towers remains standing, but
was
badly damaged. “This building is many
meters away from the World Trade Center and
yet we see a column there that used to be part
of that building,” explained A.
Whittaker, Ph.
D. “The column became a missile that shot across
the road, through
the window and through the
floor.”
The visit to the area also
revealed some surprises, according to the
engineers. For example, the floor framing
system in one of the adjacent buildings
was
quite rugged, allowing floors that were pierced by
tons of falling debris to remain
intact.
“Highly redundant ductile framing systems may
provide a simple, but robust
strategy for
blast resistance,” he added. Other strategies may
include providing
alternate paths for gravity
loads in the event that a load-bearing column
fails.
A. Reinhorn, Ph. D. noted
that “Earthquake shaking has led to the
collapse of many buildings in the past. It
induces dynamic response and extremely
high
stresses and deformations in structural
components. Solutions developed for
earthquake-resistant design may be directly
applicable to blast engineering and
terrorist-
resistant design. Part of our mission now at UB is
to transfer these
solutions and to develop new
ones where none exist at present.”
31.
The question raised in the first
paragraph is one _________________.
A)
that was asked by structural engineers a month ago
B) that is too difficult for structural
engineers to answer even now
C) that was
never thought of before the terrorist attack
D) that terrorists are eager to find a
solution to
正确答案: C
32.
The project funded by the National Science
Foundation________________.
A) was first
proposed by some engineers at UB
B) took
about two days to complete
C) was to
investigate the damage caused by the terrorist
attack
D) was to find out why some
buildings could survive the blasts
正确答案: D
33.
The column mentioned by
Dr. Whittaker____________________.
A) was
part of the building close to the World Trade
Center
B) was part of the World Trade
Center
C) was shot through the window
and the floor of the World Trade Center
D) damaged many buildings in the vicinity of the
World Trade Center
正确答案: A
34.
A surprising discovery
made by the investigators during their visit to
ground
zero is that ________.
A)
floors in the adjacent building remain undamaged
B) some floor framing systems demonstrate
resistance to explosion
C) simple floor
framing systems are more blast resistant
D) floors in one of the adjacent buildings were
pierced by tons of debris
正确答案: B
35.
What Dr. Reinhorn said in the last
paragraph may imply all the following EXCEPT
that ________.
A) blast engineers
should develop new solutions for terror-resistant
design
B) blast engineering can borrow
technologies developed for terror-resistant
design
C) solutions developed for
earthquake-resistant design may apply to
terrorist-resistant design
D) blast
engineering emerges as a new branch of science
正确答案: D
Passage Two
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following
passage.
In her international
bestselling Talk to the Hand, author Lynne Truss
argues that common courtesies such as saying
“Excuse me” are practically extinct.
There are
certainly plenty who would agree with her.
Is it really true? We decided to find out by
experiments. In dozens of
American cities, our
reporters performed two experiments: “door tests”
(Would anyone
hold one open for them?) and
“document drops” (Who would help them retrieve a
pile
of “accidentally” dropped papers?). Along
the way, the reporters encountered all
types:men and women of different races,
ages,professions, and income levels.
While 90 percent of the people passed the door
test,only 55 percent passed
the document drop.
Are people less likely to help others when doing
so takes extra
effort or time? Not always, the
reporters found. Take the pregnant woman who
thought
nothing of bending down to help us
with our papers. Or the woman named Liz who
balanced
two coffees,her keys and her wallet
on a takeout tray with one hand,while picking
up papers off the wet pavement with the other.
Her reason for helping? “I was there,”
she
said.
Overall, men were the most
willing to help, especially when it came to
document drops. In those,men offered aid 63
percent of the time, compared to 47 percent
among women. Of course, men weren’t entirely
democratic about whom they’d help.
All of them
held the door for the female reporter, and were
more than twice as likely
to help her pick up
fallen papers than they were to help our male
reporter.
By far, the most common
reason people cited for being willing to go out
of their way to help others was their
upbringing. “It’s the way I was raised,”
said
one young woman who held a door open despite
struggling with her umbrella on
a rainy day in
Brooklyn. We realize this isn’t a rigorous
scientific study, but we
believe it is a
reasonable real-world test of good manners around
the globe. And it’
s comforting to know that in
a place where millions of people push one another
each
day to get ahead, they’re able to do it
with a smile. Hey, if they can make nice
here,they can make nice anywhere.
36.
Which of the following is the best
word to describe the experiments?
A)
Scientific.
B) Biased.
C)
Revolutionary.
D) Realistic.
正确答案:
D
37.

save time
