第三部分：阅读理解( Part III Reading Comprehension)共20题，考试时间为35分钟。 第一节：短文理解，考生可根据文章内容从每题四个选择项中选出最佳答案。 Passage 1
Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.
For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse
3
B) hand C) think D) get
much enthusiasm. The effective word of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.
51. Normally a student would at least attend ________ classes each week.
A) 36
B) 20
C) 12
D) 15
52. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed ________.
A) to live in a different university
B) to take a particular course in a different university C) to live at home and drive to classes
D) to get two degrees from two different universities
53. American university students are usually under pressure of work because ________.
A) their academic performance will affect their future careers B) they are heavily involved in student affairs C) they have to observe university discipline D) they want to run for positions of authority
54. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because
________.
A) they hate the constant pressure strain of their study B) they will then be able to stay longer in the university C) such positions help them get better jobs D) such positions are usually well paid
55. The student organizations seem, to be effective in ________.
A) dealing with the academic affairs of the university B) ensuring that the students observe university regulations C) evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a court D) keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activities
Passage 2
As supplier of most of the food we eat and of raw materials for many industrial processes, agriculture is clearly an important area of the economy. But the industrial performance of agriculture (the relative efficiency of agricultural production compared to
4
other areas in the economy) is even more important than this. For in nations where the productivity of farmers is low, most of the working population is needed to raise food and few people are available for the production of investment goods or for other activities required for economic growth. Indeed, one of the factors related most closely to the per capita income (人均收入) of a nation is the fraction of its population engaged in farming. In the poorest nations of the world more than half of the population lives on farms. This compares sharply with less than 10 percent in western Europe and less than 4 percent in the United States.
In short, the course of economic development in general depends in a fundamental way on the performance of farmers. This performance, in turn, depends on how agriculture is organized and on the economic environment, or market structure, within which it functions. In the following pages the performance of American agriculture is examined. It is appropriate to begin with a consideration of its market structure. 56. This passage is most probably ________.
A) a news item
B) part of an introduction to a book C) part of a lecture D) an advertisement
57. What is the most important to agriculture is ________.
A) the amount of food it produces B) the per capita income of farmers C) its industrial performance D) the production of investment goods
58. The underlined word “this” in the first paragraph refers to ________.
A) the provision of food and raw materials B) the productivity of farmers C) the production of investment goods D) the economy as a whole
59. The performance of farmers essentially determines ________.
A) the size of the working population B) the organization of agriculture C) the market structure
D) the general development of economy
60. This passage will most probably be followed by a discussion of ________.
A) the structure of American farming population
