| 第28、29、30、31、32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33、34、35、36题：Greek soldiers sent messages by turning their shields(盾)toward the sun. The flashes reflected light could be seen several miles away. The enemy did not know what the flashes meant, but other Greek soldiers could understand the messages. Roman soldiers in some places built long rows of signal towers. When they had a message to send, the soldiers shouted it from tower to tower. If there were enough towers and enough soldiers with loud voices, important news could be sent quickly over distance. In Africa, people learned to send messages by beating on a series of large drums(鼓). Each drum was kept within hearing distance of the next one. The drum beats were sent out in a special way that all the drummers understood. Though the messages were simple, they could be sent at great speed for hundreds of miles. In the eighteenth century, a French engineer found a new way to send short messages. In this way, a person held a flag in each hand and the arms were moved to various positions representing different letters of the alphabet. It was like spelling out words with flags and arms. Over a long period of time, people sent messages by all these different ways. However, not until the telephone was invented in America in the nineteenth century could people send speech sounds over a great distance in just a few seconds. 65. According to this passage, the Roman way of communication depended very much upon . A、fine weather B、high tower C、the spelling system D、arm movements 66. Which of the following statements is true? A、Neither the Greek soldiers nor their enemy could understand the message. B、African soldiers shouted from tower to tower to pass message. C、Telephone was invented by a French engineer. D、Only by using telephone could people send speech sounds quickly. 67. The African way of communication sent messages. A、in a special way B、over a very short distance C、by a musical instrument D、at a rather slow speed 68. The way of communication made use of visible signs. A、French B、Roman C、African D、American |
