　　American Sports

　　The United States is a sports-loving nation. Sports in America take a variety of forms: organized competitive struggles, which draw huge crowds to cheer their favorite team to victory; athletic games, played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found; and hunting and fishing. Most sports are seasonal, so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year. Some sports are called spectator sports, as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game.

　　Baseball is the most popular sport in the US. It is played throughout the spring and summer, and professional baseball teams play well into the fall. Although no other game is exactly like baseball, perhaps the one most nearly like it is the English game of cricket.

　　Football is the most popular sport in the fall. The game originated as a college sport more than 7dazhihui008.cnears ago. It is still played by almost every college and university in the country, and the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people. The game is not the same as European football or soccer. In American football there are 11 players on each team, and they are dressed in padded uniforms and helmets because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur.

　　Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges. Like football, basketball originated in the US and is not popular in other countries. Many Americans prefer it to football because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game. It is a very popular game with high schools, and in more than 20 states, state-wide high school matches are held yearly.

　　Other spectator sports include wrestling, boxing, and horse racing. Although horse-racing fans call themselves sportsmen, the accuracy of the term is questionable, as only the jockeys who ride the horses in the races can be considered athletes. The so-called sportsmen are the spectators, who do “not assemble” primarily to see the horses race, but to bet upon the outcome of each race. Gambling is the attraction of horse racing.

　　练习：

　　1.Hunting and fishing are mainly favored by men, young and old, in the US.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　2.Professional baseball teams can continue to play for a long period of time in the fall after the regular baseball seasons of spring and summer.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　3.Baseball shares many features with the English game of cricket.

　　4.Football can be classified as a spectator sport.

　　5.Many Americans like basketball better than football because the latter is so harsh that players have to wear special uniforms.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　6.Basketball in American is so popular with universities that nationwide university matches are held yearly.

　　A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned

　　7.Horse-racing fans cannot be considered sportsmen because they are spectators whose primary interest is gambling.

　　Soot and Snow：a Hot Combination

　　l New research from NASA scientists suggests emissions of black soot alter the way sunlight reflects off snow.According to a computer simulation，black soot may be responsible for 25 percent of observed global warming over the past century.

　　2 Soot in the higher latitudes of the Earth。where ice is more common，absorbs more of the sun’s energy and warmth than an icy, white background.Dark-colored black carbon，or soot，absorbs sunlight，while lighter colored ice reflects sunlight.

　　3 Soot in areas with snow and ice may play all important role in climate change.Als0，if snow and ice covered areas begin melting。the warming effect increases，as the soot becomes more concentrated on the snow surface.“This provides a positive feedback，as glaciers and ice sheet smelt,they tend to get even dirtier,” said Dr.James Hansen，a researcher at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies，NewYork.

　　4 Hansen found soot’s effect on snow albedo(solar energy reflected back to space)，which may be contributing to trends toward early springs in the Northern Hemisphere，such as thinning Arctic sea ice，melting glaciers and permafrost.Soot also is believed to play a role in changes in the atmosphere above the oceans and land.

　　5 “Black carbon reduces the amount of energy reflected by snow back into space，thus heating the snow surface more than if there were no black carbon~，”Hansen said.Soot’s increased absorption of solar energy is especially effective in warming the world’s climate. “This forcing is unusually effective，causing twice as much global warming as a carbon.dioxide forcing of the same magnitude，”Hansen noted.

　　6 Hansen cautioned.although the role of soot in altering global climate is substantial，it does not alter the fact that greenhouse gases are the primary cause of climate warming during the past century.Such gases are expected to be the largest climate forcing f10r也e rest of this century.

　　7 The researchers found that observed warming in the Northern Hemisphere was 1arge in the winter and spring at middle and high latitudes.These observations were consistent with the researchers’ climate model simulations，which showed some of the largest warming effects occurred when there were heavy snow cover and sufficient sunlight.

　　Goal of American Education

　　Education is all enormous and expensive part of American life. Its size is matched by its variety.

　　Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of other

　　countries lie in the fact that education here has long been intended for everyone—not just

　　for a privileged elite. Schools ale expected to meet the needs of every child, regardless

　　of ability, and also the needs of society itself.This means that public schools offer more

　　than academic subjects.It surprises many people when t11ey come here to find high schools

　　offering such courses as typing，sewing，radio repair, computer programming or driver training，along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics，history, and languages.Students choose their curricula depending on their interests，future goals，and level of ability.The underlying goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities，and to give each one a sense of civic and community consciousness。.

　　Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and

　　“Americanizing”the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many

　　different backgrounds and origins. Schools still play a large role in the community, especially in the small towns.

　　The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many, not only because it is informal，

　　but also because there is not much emphasis on learning facts.Instead，Americans try to

　　teach their children toⅡ1ink for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and

　　creative abilities.Students spend much time，learning how to use resource materials libraries, statistics and computers.Americans believe that if children are taught to reason well and to research well, they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the rest of their lives.Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than the accumulation of facts.

　　This is America’s answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking themselves in the fast-moving time：“How Can one prepare today’s child for a tomorrow that one can neither predict nor understand?”

　　词汇：

　　privileged adj.享有特权的

　　Common Problems, Common Solutions

　　The chances are that you made up your mind about smoking a long time ago --- and decided it’s not for you.

　　The chances are equally good that you know a lot of smokers -- there are, after all about 60 million of them, work with them, and get along with them very well.

　　And finally it’s a pretty safe bet that you’re open-minded and interested in all the various issues about smokers and nonsmokers -- or you wouldn’t be reading this.

　　And those three things make you incredibly important today.

　　Because they mean that yours is the voice -- not the smoker’s and not the anti-smoker’s --that will determine how much of society’s efforts should go into building walls that separate us and how much into the search for solutions that bring us together.

　　For one tragic result of the emphasis on building walls is the diversion of millions of dollars from scientific research on the causes and cures of diseases which, when all is said and done, still strike the nonsmoker as well as the smoker. One prominent health organization, to cite but a single instance, now spends 28 cents of every publicly contributed dollar on " education " (much of it in anti-smoking propaganda) and only 2 cents on research.

　　There will always be some who want to build walls, who want to separate people from people, and up to a point, even these may serve society. The anti-smoking wall-builders have, to give them their due, helped to make us all more keenly aware of choice.

　　But our guess, and certainly our hope, is that you are among the far greatest number who know that walls are only temporary at best, and that over the long run, we can serve society’s interest better by working together in mutual accommodation.

　　Whatever virtue walls may have, they can never move our society toward fundamental solutions. People who work together on common problems, common solutions, can.

　　1. What does the word " wall " used in the passage mean?

　　A) Anti-smoking propaganda.

　　B) Diseases striking nonsmokers as well as smokers.

　　C) Rules and regulations that prohibit smoking.

　　D) Separation of smokers from nonsmokers.

　　2. In paragraph 4, " you " refers to

　　A) smokers.

　　B) nonsmokers.

　　C) anti-smokers.

　　D) smokers who have quitted smoking.

　　3. It is evident that the author is not in favor of

　　A) building a wall between smokers and nonsmokers.

　　B) doing scientific research at the expense of one’s health.

　　C) bringing smokers and nonsmokers together.

　　D) proving accommodation for smokers.

　　4. As is suggested, the common solution to the common problem is

　　A) to separate people from people.

　　B) to work together in mutual accommodation.

　　C) to make us more keenly aware of choice.

　　D) to serve society’s interests better.

　　5. According to the passage, the writer looks upon the anti-smoking wall-builders’ actions

　　A) optimistically.

　　B) pessimistically.

　　C)unconcernedly.

　　D) skeptically.

　　Early or Later Day Care

　　The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby maintains that separation from the parents during

　　The sensitive“attachment” period from birth to three may scar a child’s personality and

　　I predispose to emotional problems in later life.Some people have drawn the conclusion from

　　Bowlby’s work that children should not be subjected to day care before the age of three because of the parental separation it entails，and many people do believe this. But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion. Firstly，anthropologists point out that the insulated love affair between children and parents;found in modem societies does not usually exist in traditional societies.For example，in some tribal societies，such as the Ngoni，the father and mother of a child did not rear their infant alone—far from it’.Secondly，common sense tells US that day care would not be so widespread today if parents

　　care-takers found children had problems with it.Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out，and even if they were，the results would be certain to be complicated and controversial.Thirdly.in the last decade there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care，and they have uniformly reported that day care had a neural or slightly positive effect on children’s development.But tests that have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue.

　　But Bowlby’s analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects.The possibility that such care might lead to，say，more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be explored by the use of statistics.Whatever the long—term effects，parents sometimes find the immediate effects difficult to deal with。.Children under three are likely to protest at leaving their parents and show unhappiness.At the age of three or three and a half almost all children find the transition to nursery easy，and this is undoubtedly why more and more parents make use of child care at this time.The matter，then，is far from clear-cuff，though experience and available evidence indicate that early care is reasonable for infants.

　　词汇：

　　psychoanalyst n.精神分析学家一心理分析学家 insulate vt.隔绝

　　rear vt.抚养 predispose引起易感性

　　care taker n.照顾者，看管人 entail vt.蕴涵

　　infant n.婴儿 anthropologist n.人类学家

　　练习：

　　1. Which of the following statements would Bowlby support?

　　A)Statistical studies should be carried out to assess the positive effect of day car

　　for children at the age of three or older.

　　B)Early day care can delay the occurrence of mental illness in children.

　　C)The first three years of one’s life is extremely important to the later development of personality.

　　D)Children under three get used to the life at nursery schools more readily than children over three

　　2. Which of the following is derivable from Bowlby’s work?

　　A)Mothers should not send their children to day care centers before the age of three.

　　B)Day care nurseries have positive effects on a child’s development.

　　C)A child sent to a day care center before the age of three may have emotional problems in later life.

　　D)Baby care would not be so popular if it has noticeable negative effects on a child’s s personality.

　　3. It is suggested that modem societies differ from traditional societies in that

　　A)the parents—child relationship is more exclusive in modem societies.

　　B)a child more often grows up with his(her brothers or sisters in traditional societies.

　　C)mother brings up children with the help of her husband in traditional societies.

　　D)children in modem societies are more likely to develop mental illness in later years

　　4. Which of the following statements is NOT an argument against Bowlby’s theory?

　　A)Many studies show that day care has a positive effect on children’s development.

　　B)The fact that there are so many nursery schools today shows that day care is safe.

　　C)The separation of young children from their parents is common in some traditional societies.

　　D)Parents find the immediate effects of early day care difficult to deal with.

　　5 Which of the following best expresses the writer’s attitude towards early day care?

　　A)Children under three should stay with their parents.

　　B)Early day care has positive effects on children’s development.

　　C)The issue is controversial and its settlement calls for the use of statistics.

　　D)The effects of early day care on children are exaggerated and parents should ignore the issue.

　　Why do people shrink?

　　Did you ever see the movie Honey, I shrunk the kids? It’s about a wacky dad (who’s also a scientist) who accidentally shrinks his kids with his homemade miniaturizing invention. Oops! ____1____.

　　For older people, shrinking isn’t that dramatic or sudden at all. It takes place over years and may add up to only one inch or so off of their adult height (maybe a little more, maybe less), and this kind of shrinking can’t be magically reversed, although there are things that can be done to stop it or slow it down. ___2___.

　　There are a few reasons. As people get older, they generally lose some muscle and fat from their bodies as part of the natural aging process. Gravity (the force that keeps your feet on the ground) take hold, and the bones in the spine, called vertebrae, may break down or degenerate, and start to collapse into one another. ___3___. But perhaps the most common reason why some older people shrink is because of osteoporosis.

　　Osteoporosis occurs when too much spongy bone tissue (which is found inside of most bones) is broken down and not enough new bone material is made. ___4___. Bones become smaller and weaker and can easily break if someone with osteoporosis is injured. Older people --especially women, who generally have smaller and lighter bones to begin with -- are more likely to develop osteoporosis. As years go by, a person with osteoporosis shrinks a little bit.

　　Did you know that every day you do a shrinking act? You aren’t as tall at the end of the day as you are at the beginning. That’s because as the day goes on, water in the disks of the spine gets compressed (squeezed) due to gravity, making you just a tiny bit shorter. Don’t worry, though. ___5___.

　　A. They end up pressing closer together, which makes a person lose a little height and become shorter.

　　B. Once you get a good night’s rest, your body recovers, and the next morning, you’re standing tall again.

　　C. Over time, bone is said to be lost because it’s not being replaced.

　　D. Luckily, there are things that people can do to prevent shrinking.

　　E. The kids spend the rest of the movie as tiny people who are barely visible while trying to get back to their normal size.

　　F. But why does shrinking happen at all?

　　Something Men Do Not Like to Do

　　1. C 段个句子是主题句，说的是：Eric Brown讨厌买东西。“shopping”是合适的选择。

　　2. A 语境是的：当我出去买东西时，我上知道我要买。我冲了进去，买了后……显然，填入“get out”(出去)是连贯的。“stay in”是“在家里呆着”，“look round”是“环顾”，“move about”是“闲荡”，不难看出，都合适的选择。

　　3。 B 段的个句子说的是：的认识，男人讨厌买东西。句的起始词是“But”，它告诉意思将转折，“challenging”是合适的选择。“confirming”是“确认”的意思，“proving”是“证明”，“supporting”是“支持”。

　　4. A 段的个句子引自纽约城市大学社会学教授Sharon Zukin的话，大意是：……在社会阶层、种族特点、年龄上是有差异的，男人都说讨厌买东西。可以看出，合适的选择是“Regardless of”(不管)，“Because of”，“Owing to”，“Thanks to”都表示“原因”，插入后意思上是不连贯的。

　　5. B 紧接着段个句子的后句子由“Yet”起始， 词提示由它的句子在意思上跟上句子构成对比。上句子说的是“男人们讨厌买东西”，那么句子应当说的是男人们上是喜欢买东西的。，“like”是合适的选择。

　　6. D 从下文的“music”(音乐)，“hardware”(硬件)判断，“coats”(外套)，pants(裤子)，socks(袜子)都合适的选择，它们都与“music”和“hardware”构成自然的类别，惟有“books”是合适的选择。，紧随其后的一句话中也了“books”词，这是提示。

　　7. D 该题问的是：男人们不把买书和音乐制品看做是购物，那么把它看做是呢?从下面的三段的信息来看，“research”()比“relaxation”(放松)，“rest”(休息)，“exercise”(锻炼)更合适一点。

　　8. D 该题问的是：男人们和女人们在称之为“买东西”和行事上都会怎么样?所在的句子上是对前面文章的总结。合适的选择是“different”。 “similar”(相似的)、 “contradictory”(矛盾的)和“inclusive”(兼容的)都不构成答案。

　　9. A 买东西是需要来回看的， 这是常识。，紧随其后的句子中也用了“wander”(漫游)词。

　　lO. D 上文中了“perfect”(完美的)。注意：文章在把男人与女人做。此处也应用“perfect”。 ’

　　11. D 注意紧随其后的动词不定式“to be won’’(赢得)，只能是“game”(游戏)。“won”在语义上搭配的

　　12.C 句子要表达的是：这会使得快乐。“makes”是的。用 ‘‘brings”，须改原文：it brings them happiness.或it brings happiness to them.如用“causes”，也须改原文：it causes them to be come happy.“it keeps them happy.”是可以说的，但它的意思是：原来就快乐。，如此?文章说。

　　13.A “nobody”，“no one”和“anybody”用于否定的语境。但该句子的否定的语境，，的选择是“everybody”。

　　14.C 至此文章在说男女之间的差别，“division”是理想的选择。整个句子说的是：事实上，在服装最能清楚地把男女区分开来。“competition”是“竞争”，“comparison”是“”，“confrontation”是“对抗”。

　　15.D 对许多男人来说，选择的范围越窄，买衣服越。“narrow”(窄)是合适的选择
