| 第7、8、9、10、11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12、13、14、15、16题：A Stage plays, at first, seem a lot like films. Both use actors and dialogue and scenery. But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worse you’ll b3e wasting a powerful tool --- the camera. A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look, a whisper, a trembling of hands. The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this. 36. The main idea of the text is that ________ . A. stage plays and films are two different kinds of art B. it is always disappointing to turn play into films C. films have certain advantages(长处) over stage plays D. the camera has made film making easy and possible 37. What is wrong with making a film by setting up a camera before the stage ? A. Fewer and fewer people will go to the theatre. B. The audience cannot see what is going on on the stage. C. The scene cannot be changed from time to time. D. The powerful camera cannot be made good use of. 38. Which of the following can show that the camera is a powerful tool ? A. It can move easily. B. It can make small things look larger. C. It can show things in the future. D. It can give us a scene of realism. 39. In what way are plays different from film ? A. Films often use real scenery while plays don’t. B. Films can show the past while plays can’t. C. Films change scenes while plays don’t. D. Film audience can move while play audience can’t. 40. A suitable title for this text is _______. A. Stage Plays and Film B. The Powerful Camera C. Fewer Plays, More Films D. Less Waste, More Freedom |
