Each passage is followed by some comprehension questions. Read the passages and answer the questions. Then, mark your answer on the Answer Sheet. In 1954 a turning point in medical history, resulting from applied bionics (仿生学), was the first “open heart” surgery done in Minneapolis, Minnesota, by Dr. C. W. Lillehei. Dr. Lillehei’s techniques for the first time allowed the patient to be operated upon while blood was supplied to the patient from a donor (输血者). Today “open heart” surgery, using more sophisticated methods and bionic devices, is common in the United States. Significant technological advances such as those already mentioned have encouraged scientists to develop the artificial heart. Early in 1983, in its first use by a human patient, a medical team at the University of Utah Medical Center replaced the diseased heart of Dr. Clark with a mechanical pump. Clark was sixty-one years old when his diseased heart was replaced by a Jarvik-7. The world watched amazed as television pictures of Dr. Clark showed he improved steadily after the surgery. His continued life demonstrated that a bionic device could imitate the action and function of a healthy heart. Dr. Clark lived for 112 days. Life-like or bionic machines have existed for centuries. The development of tools by man’s ancestors is a good example of the application of bionics to extend human capabilities. Modern bionic research is especially involved in prosthetics (修复学) --- devices that substitute for, or replace, lost or diseased body parts such as arms, legs, and eyes. Recent advances in electronics have enabled scientists to make better use of electrical impulses (脉冲) in the control of prosthetic devices. One interesting research project is the development of an artificial eye in which video signals are translated into light patterns that are sent into nerve receptors in the patient. The future for applied bionics appears to be promising. Existing bionic devices will become smaller, faster, and more effective. The artificial heart used for Dr. Clark is only one of experimental replacement devices. It is likely to be joined in the future by replacements for other internal systems or organs. Bionic livers, stomachs, and lungs are not impossibilities! 11 Which of the following does this passage mainly discuss? a. The application of bionics. b. The first “ open heart” surgery. c. The development of the artificial heart. d. The future of applied bionics. 12 According to the passage, it was Dr. C. W. Lillehei that ________. a. first developed applied bionics b. was the first to operate on the heart of a patient c. developed the artificial heart d. used more sophisticated methods to do “open heart” surgery 13 By “ Dr. Clark lived for 112 days”, the author most probably means that ______. a. the replacement of Dr. Clark’s heart was a failure b. there was still a long way to go in applied bionics c. applied bionics was promising d. the first artificial heart was most effective 14 The control of artificial devices is improving because ___________. a. video signals can be translated into light patterns b. bionic machines have existed for centuries c. artificial devices such as arms, legs, and eyes require better control than bionic machines d. science has made great advances in electronics 15 The author’s attitude towards applied bionics is _________. a. critical b. approving c. objective d. questioning Two years ago, conventional wisdom still laughed at the World Wide Web as an amusing toy with little practical application. No more. With striking speed, the business that Yahoo (or, as the company formally calls itself, Yahoo!) has been pioneering has grown into nothing less than a new economic order, a Net Economy! Want to get a $900 suit for $150? Try Countryroadfashion.com. Looking for that hard-to-find book? Amazon. com is your best bet. Yearn(向往) to have groceries delivered to your door? For Americans, Peapod.com exists to make grocery shopping easier --- and it even lets you specify how ripe you like your bananas. Carpoint. com, the Microsoft website, lets you look at 3D, interactive pictures of the inside of dozens of sports cars---something you can't do anywhere in the real world. And that's the feature for this new electronic world: faster, cheaper, better. It lets you do things better and do things you couldn't even dream of doing before. But for hundreds of front-line businesses, this revolution has become very unpleasant. The 230-year-old Encyclopedia Britannica(大英百科全书), two years ago, shed its entire home sales force in North America after the arrival of the Internet at $8.50 a month made the idea of owning a $1,250, 32-volume set of books seem less appealing. Kids, everyone knew, were just happy to get their information online or from a CD-ROM. In fact, they preferred it. When discovering advertisers were discarding the paper in favor of the Net, the 170-year-old Journal of Commerce, which made most of its money from publishing shipping logs(航运日志) every week, has been forced to set sail on a new digital ocean in order to survive. 16 What's the author's main purpose in writing the passage? a. To illustrate the Internet's impact on commerce. b. To encourage consumers to shop through the Internet. c. To describe the features for the new electronic world. d. To reveal that the Internet has brought misfortune to some businessmen. 17 If you are writing a paper on a little-known 14th century poet, you may try ______ to find relevant reference materials. a. Countryroadfashion.com b. Amazon.com c. Peapod.com d. Carpoint.com 18 The sales of Encyclopedia Britannica decreased, because _______. a. fewer kids were interested in the information provided by the set of books b. its home sales force in North America was not competitive c. people could get their information from the Internet at a much lower cost d. kids preferred to get the information they needed from the computer 19 It can be inferred that in order to survive the revolution, the Journal of Commerce ______. a. started up a new business b. started to establish a website c. had to publish shipping logs every week d. tried to get more customers by means of advertisements 20 The word "shed" in the second sentence of the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ______. a. criticized b. reorganized c. reinforced d. dismissed What are the comparative results --- measured in student achievement --- of machine courses and the conventional, "live teacher" courses? In a majority of controlled experimental cases, where identical material has been presented by machine and live teacher, average final grades for machine students were superior to those for conventional students. Needless to say, many more tests must be made, and with each test many more questions will appear in need of answers. But contrary to our unconcern thirty years ago, today we must push energetically to find the answers, because now there are not enough teachers --- and now, for the same reason, greater emphasis than ever is being placed on the effectiveness of our educational systems. This does not mean that there are no criticisms of and objections to the concept and implications of teaching machine instruction. But all sides of the story must be heard. Last year, for example, a very simple machine for teaching elementary arithmetic was placed in a state institution for mentally handicapped children. The experimenter began to show each child how to work (or play) with the machine. It soon became the most sought after object in the play room. Finally there were so many quarrels among the children in competing for the teaching machine that it was set in a corner and the privilege of "playing" with it became a reward to the children who merited it for other unrelated work done in the institute. Before it was removed at the end of the experiment, many children, earlier considered hopeless, could add and subtract. 21 The writer argues for more interest in machine teaching because ______. a. teachers are scarce b. teaching machines are not subject to human error c. teaching machines overcome psychological problems in teaching d. teaching machines are cheaper than human teachers 22 Which of the following statements agrees with what the writer says? a. Some machines can learn faster than humans. b. We need to develop more effective teaching systems. c. Many people accept teaching machines in theory but not in practice d. Students trained by machines usually do worse than students trained by teachers. 23 What was the attitude of the mentally handicapped children towards the teaching machine? a. They resented it. b. They regarded it as a toy. c. They preferred their teacher. d. They ignored it. 24 The author feels that after more tests of teaching machines are made, _______. a. students will become more accustomed to using teaching machines b. the cost of the machines will drop c. resistance to teaching machines will grow less d. more problems will need to be solved 25 When the writer says that "all sides of the story must be heard", he is really suggesting that _______. a. we should seek the opinion of experienced educators b. parents have a right to say what kind of education their children should have c. there are some valuable criticisms of teaching machines d. we should not allow criticisms of teaching machines to obscure their value Part III Vocabulary & Structure ( 15 points, 20 minutes) Directions: Each of the following sentences is followed by four choices.

Part III Writing ( 15 points, 30 minutes) Social Practice in Education 范文 It is a common weak point among today's college students that the majority of them have little knowledge of social reality. Social practice is a bridge between their theory and reality. Timely participation in social practice will benefit them all throughout their life. Social practice must become an organic component of the nation's higher education. Students must learn more than their textbooks teach. Their participation in social practice and the knowledge of society and the national conditions might strengthen their sense of social responsibility; their close contact with the working people might help them to apply their knowledge to the solution of the practical problem. In recent years, many college students have been sent to the basic level to keep in contact with workers and farmers. The process has proved effective in enriching their knowledge of reality. They have learned a great deal from social practice.
