| 第2、3、4、5、6题：A Reading is not the only way to gain knowledge of the work in the past. There is another large reservoir (知识库) which may be called experience, and the college student will find that every craftsman (工匠) has something he can teach and will generally teach gladly to any college student who does not look down upon them . The information from them differs from (不同于) that in textbooks and papers chiefly in that its theoretical (理论 ) part -- the explanations of why things happen -- is frequently quite fantastic (神奇 ) . But the demonstration (示范) and report of what happens , and how it happens are correct even if the reports are in completely unscientific terms (术语). Presently the college student will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One important thing for a college student to remember is that if Aristotle could talk to the fisherman, so can he. Another source of knowledge is the vast store of traditional (传统 ) practices handed down from father to son , or mother to daughter, of old country customs (习惯), of folklore (风俗). All this is very difficult for a college student to examine, for much knowledge and personal experience is needed here to separate good plants from wild grass. The college student should learn to realize and remember how much of real value science has found in this wide, confused wilderness and how often scientific discoveries of what had existed in this area long age. 36.In the last paragraph the phrase "this wide, confused wilderness" refers to _____. A. personal experience B. wild weeds among good plants C. the information from the parentsD. the vast store of traditional practices 37. Which of the following statements is supported by the passage? A. The college students have trouble separating good plants from wild grass B. Craftsman's experience is usually unscientific C. The contemptuous (傲慢 ) college students will receive nothing from craftsmen D. Traditional practices are as important as experience for the college student 38. From this passage we can infer that ______. A. we'll invite the craftsman to teach in the college B. schools and books are not the only way to knowledge C. scientific discoveries late based on personal experience D. discoveries and rediscoveries are the most important source of knowledge for a college student 39. The author advises the college student to ______ . A. be contemptuous to the craftsman B. be patient in helping the craftsman with scientific terms C. learn the craftsman's experience by judging it carefully D. gain the craftsman's experience without rejection 40. The main idea of this passage is about ________. A . what to learn from the parents B. how to gain knowledge C. why to learn from craftsman D. how to deal with experience |

| 第27、28、29、30题：Hotlines have become common in China. Some radio broadcasting stations use hotlines to encourage the listeners to take part in the talk shows. That's a good idea. Yet, the fact is, some people do nothing but break the whole programme. Some people know little about the topic under discussion. Sometimes they do not even know what the host(主持人)is talking about. So the host has to tell the caller what the show is about .Usually the caller will ask a few questions which express his hope and show his ignorance(无知).Then the host has to answer and explain-how silly this is !It wastes a lot of time . It seems that some people phone the hotlines in fun. They just want to let the listeners hear them. They don't care what the topic is , whether they themselves are interested in or how silly they appear to be. I'm totally bored(厌烦)by those people . It's necessary for radio stations to improve the hotline programmes. In my opinion, if a caller doesn't know what is going on, the operator should not let the caller take part in it. 52.
