Part II
Reading Comprehension
(20%)
Directions:
There
are
3
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 centre.
Passage 1
Eye
contact
is
nonverbal
technique
that
helps
the
speaker
“
sell
”
his
or
her
ideas
to
an
audience.
Besides
its
persuasive
powers,
eye
contact
helps
hold
listener
interest.
A
successful
speaker must maintain direct contact with an audience. To have good rapport
（关系）
with listeners,
a speaker should maintain direct eye contact for at
least 75 percent of the time.
Some speakers
focus
exclusively
on
their
notes.
Others
gaze
over
the
heads
of
their
listeners.
Both
are
losing
audience interest and esteem. People who maintain eye contact while speaking, from a podium
（演
讲台）
or
from
across
the
table,
are
“
regarded
not
only
as
exceptionally
well-disposed
by
their
target but also as more believable and earnest.
”
To show the potency
（
力量，
威力）
of eye contact in daily life, we have only to consider how
passers-by
behave
when
their
glances
happen
to
meet
on
the
street.
At
one
extreme
are
those
people who feel obliged to smile when they make eye contact. At the other extreme are those who
feel awkward and immediately look away. To make eye contact, it seems, is to make a certain link
with someone.
Eye contact with an audience also helps a speaker know and monitor the listeners.
It is, in
fact, esential for analyzing an audience during a speech. Visual cues from audience members can
indicate that a speech is dragging, that the speaking is dwelling on a particular point too long, or
that a particular point requires further explanation. As we have pointed out, visual feedback from
learners should play an important role in shaping a speech as it is delivered.
41. The passage is mainly concerned with ________.
A. the importance of eye contact
B. the potency of non-verbal techniques
C. successful speech delivery
D. an effective way to gain visual feedback
42. According to the passage, a good speaker must ________.
A.
“
sell
”
his or her ideas to an audience
B. maintain direct eye contact with listeners
C. be very persuasive and believable
D. be exceptionally well-disposed
43. The word
“
target
”
in the last sentence of the first paragraph can best be replaced by ________.
A.
“
destination
”
B.
“
goal
”
C.
“
audience
”
D.
“
follower
”
44.
In
daily
life,
when
the
glance
of
two
passers-by
happen
to
meet,
these
two
persons
will
inevitably ________.
A. smile to each other
B. feel awkward and look away immdiately
C. try tp make a conversation
D. none of the above
45. Eye contact with an audience, according to the author, has all the following benefits EXCEPT
that it does not help the speaker ________.
A. to control the audience
B. to gain audience interest and esteem
C. to know whether he is talking too much about a certain point
D. to analyze his audience when he is beginning his speech
Passage 2
I hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish I were so. At
your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on
your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all
taking
the
same
way
of
showing
that
they
disagree
with
their
parents.
Instead
of
striking
out
boldly on their own, most of them are clutching at one another
’
s hands for reassurance.
They claim they want to dresss as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set
off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up huddled round listening to the same
record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and- such a way is that the crowd is doing it.
They have come out of their cocoon
（蚕茧）
---into a larger cocoon.
It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to
go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager
can
learn
from
the
advertisments
what
a
teenager
should
have
and
be.
And
many
of
today
’
s
parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a
great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.
But the barrier is worth climbling over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen
to classic music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is
collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you do
n’
t care to share at once with your
