　　I know science's limitations, but with my worship of science I always let the scientists do the groundwork, having complete confidence in them. I let them discover the physical universe for me-the physical universe that I de-sire so much to know. Then, after getting as much as possible of the scientist's knowledge, I remember that human beings are greater than the analytical scientist that the latter cannot tell us everything, not tell us about the most important things, the things that make for happiness.

　　It is instead intuitive thinking that alone can help us attain the truth and wisdom of living. Truly intuitive thinking is always the type of thinking that is sort of warm, emotional, and half-humorous, mixed in part with idealism and in part with delightful nonsense. Great wisdom consists in not demanding too much of human nature, and yet not altogether spoiling it by indulgence. One must try to do one's best and at the same time, one must, when rewarded by partial success or confronted with partial failure, say to oneself, “I have done my best. ” This is about all the philosophy of living that one needs.

　　After science has done its groundwork, religion, art, literature, and philosophy must take their rightful place in human life. These things do not seem to tie together with science in the modem world; the specialist has taken over the human being. For science can never replace art, religion, literature and philosophy. Next to knowledge, we must retain, and never lose, a taste for life, a respect for life, a sense of wonder at life, and a proper and reasonable attitude toward life. The taste for life must be simple, the respect for life must be truly profound, the sense of wonder must be fully alive, and the attitude toward life must be harmonious and reasonable .

1．According to this passage, which of the following is one of science's limitations?

[　　]

A．Science cannot make us live happily.

B．Science cannot discover knowledge.

C．Science cannot lead us to success.

D．Science cannot give us confidence.

2．According to the author, intuitive thinking is something that________.

[　　]

A．scientists use to discover knowledge.

B．people can do, but animals cannot.

C．students can learn in school.

D．we need to lead a better life.

3．The author recommends that we should

[　　]

A．be satisfied with moderate achievement.

B．avoid failure at all costs.

C．ignore human nature .

D．drive ourselves to be the best.

4．The author thinks that in the modern world1________.

[　　]

A．a true taste for life depends upon science.

B．science is closely related to the humanities.

C．harmony can be found among scientists.

D．experts have controlled our way of life.

5．What statement best reflects the author's opinion as stated in this passage?

[　　]

A．Science teaches us more about life than art, religion, literature and philosophy.

B．Art, religion, literature and philosophy are no less important than science .

C．Science should replace religion as a new faith for people today.

D．Knowledge of the physical universe gives us wisdom about life.

　　Suppose we built a robot(机器人)to explore the planet Mars．We provide the robot with seeing detectors(探测器)to keep it away from danger．It is powered entirely by the sun．Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times?No．The robot would be using up energy at a time when it was not receiving any．So we would probably program it to stop its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning．

　　According to the evolutionary(进化的)theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason．The theory does not deny(否认)that sleep provides some important restorative functions(恢复功能)．It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous．However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not protect us from trouble that comes looking for us．So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent．

　　The evolutionary theory explains the differences in sleep among creatures．Why do eats, for instance, sleep so much, while horses sleep so little?Surely cats do not need five times as much repair and restoration as horses do．But cats can afford to have long periods of inactivity because they spend little time eating and are unlikely to be attacked while they sleep．Horses must spend almost all their waking hours eating, because what they eat is very low in energy value．Moreover, they cannot afford to sleep too long or too deeply, because their survival(生存)depends on their ability to run away from attackers．

(1)

The author uses the example of the robot in space exploration to tell us ________．
[　　]
A．	the differences between robots and men
B．	the reason why men need to sleep
C．	about the need for robots to save power
D．	about the danger of men working at night

(2)

Evolution has programmed man to sleep at night chiefly to help him ________．
[　　]
A．	keep up a regular pattern of life
B．	prevent trouble that comes looking for him
C．	avoid danger and inefficient labour
D．	restore his bodily functions

(3)

According to the author, we cannot sleep well when we ________．
[　　]
A．	are worrying about our safety
B．	are overworked
C．	are in a tent
D．	are away from home

(4)

Cats sleep much more than horses do partly because cats ________．
[　　]
A．	need more time for restoration
B．	are unlikely to be attackers
C．	axe more active than homes when they are awake
D．	spend less time eating to get enough energy

(5)

Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?
[　　]
A．	Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking．
B．	The study of sleep is an important part of the evolutionary theory．
C．	Sleeping patterns must be taken into consideration in the designing of robots．
D．	The sleeping pattern of a living creature is determined by the food it eats．

　　Many sports need the services of one or more referees(裁判).You will find, for example, referees in swimming, diving, competitions, football, skating, basketball, and tennis, among others .The referee’s judgment, no matter what the sport is, can make the difference between winning and losing．

　　When a decision is announced, one can often hear loud cheering from the spectators(观众).Sometimes the people don’t agree with the decision．Usually, however, no matter what the people think, the decision of the judge is final．With the instant(即时的)replay television viewers often get a second chance to watch the special sports moments .Should the camera help the referees in making their decisions?Some people think so .The Japanese have been using the television instant replay in one of their sports for some time．

　　In Japan, where sumo wrestling is thought by many to be the national sport, a wrestler named Taiho was trying to break Futabayama’s record of 69 victories .In the 46th match, Futabayama was declared the winner by mistake because the judges had not seen the wrestler’s foot leave the circle．

　　Soon after the mistake, the people said that they had a right to see the match end with the correct winners since they had paid as much as $ 375 for a ringside seat .Now cameras record the actions of wrestlers .The camera is the most important referee of all .If a man or a woman makes a mistake in judgment, the camera will correct it, and the instant replay will let everyone know it .The right winner will win．

阅读理解：

　　Next time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee．And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea．The physical sensation(感觉)of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions－those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A．Bargh．

　　Psychologists have known that one person’s perception(感知)of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships．Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary consideration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable．Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness．Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle．Harlow’s work and later studies have led psychologists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills．

　　Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal．Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries．

　　To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students．A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses(假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form：The drink was then handed back．After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description．Those who had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink．

　　“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh．

(1)

According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by _________．
[　　]
A．	the visitors to his office
B．	the psychology lessons he has
C．	his physical feeling of coldness
D．	the things he has bought online

(2)

The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that _________．
[　　]
A．	adults should develop social skills
B．	babies need warm physical contact
C．	caregivers should be healthy adults
D．	monkeys have social relationships

(3)

In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to _________．
[　　]
A．	evaluate someone’s personality
B．	write down their hypotheses
C．	fill out a personal information form
D．	hold coffee and cold drink alternatively

(4)

We can infer from the passage that _________．
[　　]
A．	abstract thinking does not come from physical experiences
B．	feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwide
C．	physical temperature affects how we see others
D．	capable persons are often cold to others

(5)

What would be the best title for the passage?
[　　]
A．	Drinking for Better Social Relationships
B．	Experiments of Personality Evaluation
C．	Developing Better Drinking Habits
D．	Physical Sensations and Emotions
