二、2.Reading Comprehension

Part III  Reading Comprehension
Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and choose the best answer to each question. Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

1.By midday, the small party of boys, led by their schoolmaster, had reached a height of 2,500 feet. At this point the party had to stop climbing because one of the boys became seriously ill. The only thing the master could do was to return to the mountain hut where they ha& spent the night. From there, he telephoned the police. As no rescue party could reach the boy quickly enough, the Royal Air Force Rescue Center sent a helicopter (直升飛機(jī)) with a policeman and a doctor on board. The helicopter soon arrived on the scene, but the sides of the mountain were so steep that it could not land. A helicopter usually lands on four wheels, but it can land on two. However, the slope was too steep even for that. The pilot, there fore, kept the helicopter in the air with only one wheel touching the mountain side while the party carried the boy on board.

7.When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.
  People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes." Everything else is not so clear. Many people who do a lot of close work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near sighted. Then they have to wear glasses in order to see distant (遠(yuǎn)處的) things clearly.
  People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm"s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.
  Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people"s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白內(nèi)障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them."
  Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle (角度). To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of the other eye. You will find the object"s relation to the background (背景) and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

We should take good care of our eyes ______.

A．only when we cannot see perfectly
B．only when we can see well
C．even if we can see well
D．only when we realize how important our eyes are

8.
When things far away seem indistinct, one is probably ______.

A．near-sighted
B．far-sighted
C．a(chǎn)stigmatic
D．suffering from cataracts

9.
The underlined phrase "suffer from" most probably means ______.

A．experience
B．recognize
C．feel
D．imagine

10.
Having two eyes, instead of one, is particularly useful for ______.

A．seeing at night
B．seeing objects far away
C．looking over a wide area
D．judging distances

11.
People who suffer from astigmatism ______.

A．have a curable disease in their eyes
B．have eyes that are not exactly the right shape
C．have a difficulty that can be corrected by an operation
D．have an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses

13.Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something.
  His purpose is settled and decided. He knows what he wants and he just finds it and buys it, but cares little about the price. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it, the salesman quickly takes it out, and the business of trying it on follows at once. If all is well, the deal (買賣) can be and is often completed in less than-five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone"s satisfaction.
  For a man, small problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman tries to sell the customer something else--he offers the nearest he can to the thing asked for. He would say, "I know this jacket is not the style. you want, Sir, but would you like to try it on for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned." Few men have patience (耐心) with this treatment, and the usual answer is, "This is the right color and may lie the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on."
  Now how does a woman go about buying clothes7 In almost every respect (方面) she does so quite differently. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind about what she wants, and she is only "having a look around". She is always open to what the salesman tells her, even to what her friends tell her. She will try on any number of things. What is most important in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Besides, most women have an excellent sense of value when" they buy clothes. They are always ready for the unexpected bargain (便宜貸). Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one counter to another before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It takes time, but surely it is enjoyable to women shoppers. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.

When a man is buying clothes, ______.

A．he buys cheap things and does not care about (he quality
B．he chooses things that others recommend
C．he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right things
D．he buys good quality things, so long as they are not too expensive

14.
According to the passage, a good salesman is one who ______.

A．treats his customers sharply
B．a(chǎn)lways has just what you want
C．does not waste his time on difficult customers
D．tries to sell something a customer does not particularly want

15.
What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?

A．They welcome suggestions from anyone.
B．They rarely consider buying cheap clothes.
C．They often buy things without giving the matter proper thought.
D．They listen to advice but never take it.

16.
In most cases women shoppers are supposed to ______.

A．waste money on goods of poor quality
B．buy only the best clothes
C．be much more careful than men
D．think of the price of clothes and nothing else

17.
What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?

A．The fact that men do not try clothes on in a shop.
B．Women bargain (計(jì)價(jià)還價(jià)) for their clothes, but men do not.
C．Women stand in a shop, but men sit down.
D．The time they take to buy clothes.

25.Hollywood (好萊塢) Is a suburb of the city of Los Angeles (洛杉磯) in California. Until 1908 it was no more than a quiet village on the northern side of the city, but in that year William Selig, one of the first people to make films, set up a film-producing workshop (車間) in Los Angeles. By 1911, David and William Horsely had set up another one in Hollywood, and at about the same time oil was discovered in the neighborhood. Thus Hollywood quickly became a big district given over to the film industry and to oil wells (沒井).
  The early makers of films found Hollywood a good place for their work because of its clear, sunny, rain-free weather, which allowed pictures to be taken all the year round. Also, it was known that every kind of scene needed for films, whether town, country, sea, desert or snow-capped mountains, could be found within the area of California. Today, when most films can be "shot" (拍攝) under cover by man made lighting, these advantages (優(yōu)點(diǎn)) are not so important.
  In spite of a drop in its importance, Hollywood remains a center of film production although now making more films for television than for the cinema.
