题目列表(包括答案和解析)

Imagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion--a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist: in a world without friends or enemies, there could be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds (关系) among members of groups. Society's economic underpinnings (支柱) would be destroyed: since earning $10 million would be no more pleasant than earning $10, there would be no incentive to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind, for as we will see, incentives imply a capacity to enjoy them.

In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instrument of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize objects on the basis of our emotions. True, we consider the length, shape, size, or texture, but an object's physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us--hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experiences with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are "good" and others are "bad”, and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life--from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept. In fact, society uses our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty morality, pride shame, guilt, fear and greed, in order to maintain itself. It gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusual or dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal penal (刑法的) system to make people afraid to engage in antisocial acts.

1.Which of the following is Right according to the first paragraph?

A.People would not be able to tell the texture of objects.

B.People would not know what was beneficial and what was harmful to them.

C.$10 million is equal to $10 in a world without emotions.

D.There would be full of lies, arguments and violence.

2.It can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation of society is dependent on _______.

  A.the ability to make money         B.the capacity to work

  C.the stimulus to work                       D.the categorizations of our emotional experiences

3.Emotions are significant for man's survival and adaptation because _______.

  A.they provide the means by which people view the size or shape of objects.

  B.they are the basis for the social feeling of agreement by which society is maintained.

  C.they encourage people to perform dangerous achievements.

  D.they produce more love than hate among people.

4.Why are the emotional aspects of an object more important than its physical aspects?

  A.They help society use its members for profit.

  B.They encourage us to perform important tasks.

  C.They help to perfect the legal and penal system.

D.They help us adapt our behavior to the world surrounding us.

5.What is the text mainly about?

A.People could only live in a world with emotions.

B.People would always do bad things in the emotionless world.

C.Emotions are very important in the world.

D.Emotions structure the world for us in important ways.

Dear Mr. Wang,

Thank you for taking your time to read my letter. 

My name is Wang Lin. I was born in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province in February 1988. Now I’m studying in the Foreign Languages College, Yangzhou University. As an open-minded young man, I’m good at communicating with people. English is my favorite subject. In 2007, I won the first prize in the National English Speech Contest. And in 2008 I worked as a volunteer in the Beijing Olympics, which helps me accumulate enough working experience.

    With the approach of the 2010 World Expo, I’d like very much to be a volunteer. Above all, I like meeting people from all over the world and making friends with them. Besides, I have such a rich knowledge about Chinese history that I can introduce them to our splendid culture. I’m sure I’ll serve the guests with enthusiasm. To sum up, I believe I can be a qualified volunteer. 

I will value it and do all I can if I could be accepted.

M: Hello, Mary. This is David Morison from the office. I'm calling to see how Tom is feeling today. If he's not well, I may tell someone else to do his work instead.

W: Oh, hello. The doctor said he'd be able to go back to work tomorrow. 

M: I see. Thank you.

(Text 4)               

W: How can I get to your house?

M: Oh it’s very easy. My house is only five minutes’ walk from the station. Turn right outside the station, and then it's the third street on the left. You can't miss it. It's got the number on the gate. It's exactly opposite the park.

W: I see. Thanks.

(Text 5)

W: What a memory I have! I did write down the number on a sheet of paper when I answered the phone this morning. But now the paper is missing.

M: Don't worry. I'll be seeing Mr. Brown in an hour.

(Text 6)

M: You were driving 40 miles per hour in a 25 miles per hour zone.

W: I wasn't speeding. I was driving 25 miles per hour. But there was a car in front of me that was only going 15 or 20. I think he was looking for someone's address. 1 finally passed him. And it was just at that moment that you saw me,

M: Here we are. This is it. I know it's smaller than you wanted, but it's one of the nicest flats in the building.

W: Does it have three bedrooms?

M: No, there are two. The master room is quite large though. Maybe you could let the children share the larger room, and you and your husband could use the smaller one.

W: I suppose I could do that. A three- bedroom flat will be difficult to find. I've been looking for one over a week. The first three --- bedroom flats that I have found are all extremely expensive. You said that the rent would be 350 dollars a month.

M: Yes. It includes gas. So, as you can imagine, electricity and water are quite inexpensive.

(Text 9)           

W: Did you see today’s newspaper? That building over in Centerville was just struck by lightning for the fourth time!

M: I'm not surprised. If the conditions for lightning to strike are right one time, they might be as good another time.

W: Well, I don't take any chances. If I'm caught in a thunderstorm, I look for a building or a closed car. Also, I was told that if you're stuck outdoors, the best thing you can do is to keep yourself close to the ground and avoid bodies of water.

M: To tell you the truth, even when I'm at home, I don't take baths or showers during a thunderstorm. And I don't use anything that works electrically; Maybe I'm too anxious.

W: I wouldn't say that. According to the article, lightning starts thousands of fires every year in the United States alone. Hundreds of people are injured or even killed. I think you're just being sensible.

(Text 10)

M: Attention please, ladies and gentlemen. Our bus is getting close to Cambridge, where we'll be stopping to eat. We'll have our lunch in 'the garden of a restaurant overlooking a small park that reminds people of a very famous tree. It's said that General George Washington took command of the army in 1775 under its very branches. It was almost 100 years later, in 1864, that the city of Cambridge celebrated the event and from that moment on, the tree was called the Washington Elm. Later the tree was attacked by insects and finally destroyed in a storm. The remains of the tree were cut down and the growth tings were counted to find out how old the tree was. Well, it seems that if Washington had accepted the Command of his army under this tree he must have done so on his knees. This particular elm couldn't have been over 3 or 4 years old in 1775, It is a well-known fact that Washington took command under an elm tree, but unfortunately it couldn't have been the famous Washington Elm.

    Well, enjoy your lunch. Watch your step as you leave the bus.
