11、ing Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes) Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.Women often complain that dating is like a cattle market, and a paper just published in Biology Letters by Thomas Pollet and Daniel Nettle of Newcastle University, in England, suggests they are ri

12、ght. They have little cause for complaint, however, because the paper also suggests that in this particular market, it is women who are the buyers.Mr. Pollet and Dr. Nettle were looking for evidence to support the contention that women choose men of high status and resources, as well as good looks.

13、That may sound common sense, but it was often denied by social scientists until a group of researchers who called themselves evolutionary psychologists started investigating the matter two decades ago. Since then, a series of experiments in laboratories have supported the contention. But as all zool

14、ogists know, experiments can only tell you so much. Eventually, you have to look at natural populations.And that is what Mr. Pollet and Dr. Nettle have done. They have examined data from the 1910 census of the United States of America and discovered that marriage is, indeed, a market. Moreover, as i

15、n any market, a scarcity of buyers means the sellers have to have particularly attractive goods on offer if they are to make the exchange.The advantage of picking 1910 was that America had not yet settled down, demographically (人口统计学方面) speaking. Though the long-colonized eastern states had a sex ra

16、tio of one man to one woman, or thereabouts, in the rest of the country the old adage(格言，谚语)go west, young man had resulted in a surplus of males. Mr. Pollet and Dr. Nettle were thus able to see just how picky women are, given the chance.Rather than looking at the whole census, the two researchers r

17、elied on a sample of one person in 250.They then assigned the men in the sample a socioeconomic status score between zero and 96, on a scale drawn up in 1950.They showed that in states where the sexes were equal in number, 56% of low status men were married by the age of 30, while 60% of high status

18、 men were. As the men went west, then, so did their marriage opportunities.47. A paper published in Biology Letters agreed with women that_ .48. What is the contention which is often denied by social scientists?49. Although the experiments support the contention, all zoologists suggest that .50. In

19、the market of marriage, a scarcity of buyers means sellers have to to make the exchange.51. What had given two researchers the chance to see how picky women were?Section BPassage oneQuestions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.With the possible exception of equal rights, perhaps the most co

20、ntroversial issue across the United States today is the death penalty. Many argue that it is an effective deterrent (威慑) to murder, while others maintain there is no convincing evidence that the death penalty reduces the number of murders.The principal argument advanced by those opposed to the death

21、 penalty, basically, is that it is cruel and inhuman punishment, which is the mark of a brutal society, and finally that it is of questionable effectiveness as a deterrent to crime anyway.In our opinion, the death penalty is a necessary evil. Throughout recorded history there have always been those

22、extreme individuals in every society who were capable of terribly violent crimes such as murder. But some are more extreme than others.For example, it is one thing to take the life of another in a fit of blind rage, but quite another to coldly plot and carry out the murder of one or more people in t

23、he style of a butcher. Thus, murder, like all other crimes, is a matter of relative degree. While it could be argued with some conviction that the criminal in the first instance should be merely isolated from society, such should not be the fate of the latter type murderer.The value of the death pen

24、alty as a deterrent to crime may be open to debate. But the overwhelming majority of citizens believe that the death penalty protects them. Their belief is reinforced by evidence which shows that the death penalty deters murder. For example, from 1954 to 1963, when the death penalty was consistently

25、 imposed in California, the murder rate remained between three and four murders for each 100,000 population. Since 1964 the death penalty has been imposed only once, and the murder rate has risen to 10.4 murders for each 100,000 population. The sharp climb in the states murder rate, which began when

26、 executions stopped, is no coincidence. It is convincing evidence that the death penalty does deter many murderers. If the bill reestablishing the death penalty is vetoed, innocent people will be murdered-some whose lives may have been saved if the death penalty were in effect. This is literally a l

27、ife or death matter. The lives of thousands of innocent people must be protected.52. The principal purpose of this passage is to .A) speak for the majority B) initiate a vetoC) criticize the government D) argue for the value of the death penalty53. The authors response to those who urge the death pe

29、 reestablishing the death penalty is of little importanceD) the value of the death penalty as a deterrent to crime is not to be debated55. The passage attempts to establish a relationship between .A) the murder rate and the imposition of the death penaltyB) the effects of execution and the effects o

30、f isolationC) the importance of equal rights and that of the death penaltyD) executions and murders56. The authors attitude towards death penalty is .A) opposing B) supporting C) neutral D) sarcasticPassage TwoQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.One positive consequence of our curr

31、ent national crisis may be at least a temporary shadow in Hollywoods culture of violence. Fearful of offending audiences in the wake of the terrorist attack, some moviemakers have postponed the release of film with terrorist themes. Television writers are delaying scripts with warlike and terrorist

32、scenarios (剧本提纲).It is probably good thinking. My local video store tells me nobody is checking out disaster movies. Says the manager, Currently, people want comedy.

33、tional tapes and CDs.According to The New York Times, the self scrutiny among these czars (特权人物) of mass-entertainment taste is unprecedented in scale, sweeping aside hundreds of millions of dollars in projects that no longer seem appropriate. A reasonable concern is that this might be a short term

34、phenomenon. Once life returns to something more normal, will Hollywood return to its bad old ways? The Times offers a glimmer of hope. The industrys titans (巨头),it suggests, are struggling with much more difficulties, long range questions of what the public will want once the initial shock from the

35、terrorist attacks wears off. Many in the industry admit they do not know where the boundaries of taste and consumer tolerance now lie.This is an opportunity for some of us to suggest to Hollywood where that boundary of consumer tolerance is, especially those of us who have not yet convinced Hollywoo

37、age. The traditional family hour between 8p.m.and 9p.m., when the networks used to offer programs for the entire family, has disappeared. The problem looks like it will get worse.That certainly looked to be the case before the Sept.11th assault. One pre attack New York Times story reported that TV p

Producers like Aaron Sorkin of The West Wing planned to keep pushing hard. He was quoted as saying, Theres abso

39、lutely no reason why we cant use the language of adulthood in programs that are about adults.My guess is that a lot of adults dont use the language Mr. Sorkin wants to use, and dont enjoy having their children hear it. At this moment of crisis in our nations history, thought has become more thoughtf
