3、 To do the most effective reading, you should _______ A. try every possible means to increase your reading speed B. above all improve your comprehension of the text C. hunt for whatever is implied in the reading material D. increase your reading speed and improve your understanding
4、 Directions: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage. If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1947 ), concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities. He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in summer. Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking. 11. According to the passage, man’s intelligence______. A. stays the same throughout the year B. varies from day to day C. changes with the seasons D. changes from year to year
5、 Why does the author say summer is a good time to take a long vacation from thinking? A. Because a long vacation in summer helps to improve people’s mental power. B. Because people tend to be less creative during summer. C. Because summer is a good time for outdoor activities. D. Because mental exertion in the summer heat taxes too much of people’s energy.
6、 Ellsworth Hunting’s conclusion was based on ______. A. variations of his own mental abilities from season to season B. the results of research done by him and other scientists among peoples in different climates. C. detailed records of temperature changes in different places D. detailed records of different ways of thinking among peoples in different climates
7、 You don’t need every word to understand the meaning of what you read. In fact, too much emphasis on individual words both slows your speed and reduces your comprehension. You will be given the chance to prove this to yourself, but meanwhile, let us look at the implication. First, any habit which slows down you silent reading to the speed at which you speak, or read aloud, is inefficient. If you point to each word as you read, or more your head or form the words with your lips, you read poorly. Less obvious habits also hold back reading efficiency. ONE is “saying” each word silently by moving your tongue or throat or vocal cords; another is “hearing” each word as you read. These are habits which should have been outgrown long ago. The beginning reader is learning how letters can make words, how written words are pronounced, and how sentences are put together. Your reading purpose is quite different; it is to understand meaning. It has been estimated that up to 75%of the words in English sentences are not really necessary for conveying the meaning .The secret of silent reading is to seek out those key words and phrases which carry the thought, and to pay less attention to words which exist only for the sake of grammatical completeness. An efficient reader can grasp the meaning from a page at least twice as fast as he can read the passage aloud. Unconsciously perhaps, he takes in a whole phrase or thought unit at a time. If he “says” or “hears” words to himself. They are selected ones, said for emphasis. 16. This passage is mainly about __. A. improving eye movements B. reading more widely C. eliminating poor reading habits D. concentrating while reading
8、 The certain idea of this passage is ______. A. man’s mental abilities change from season to season B. man’s intelligence varies from place to place C. man should take a long vacation in summer D. if you want to do creative thinking, go to a cool place
9、 Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. The comprehension passages on this course are designed to help you increase your speed. A higher reading rate, with no loss of comprehension, will help you in other subjects as well as English, and the general principles apply to any language. Naturally, you will read every book at the same speed. You would expect to read a newspaper, for example, much more rapidly than a physics or economics textbook but you can raise your average reading speed over the whole range of materials you wish to cover so that the percentage gain will be the same whatever kind of reading you are concerned with. The reading passages which follow are all of an average level of difficulty for your stage of instruction. If you get to the point where you can read books of average difficulty at between 40 and 50 w.p.m. with 70% or more comprehension, you will be doing quite well, though of course any further improvement of speed with comprehension will be a good thing. When you practice reading with passages shorter than book length, do not try to take in each word separately, one after the other. It is much more difficult to grasp the broad theme of the passage this way, and you will also get stuck in individual words which may not be absolutely essential to a general understanding of the passage. It is a good idea to skim through the passage very quickly First (say 500 words in a minute or so) to get the general idea of each paragraph. Titles, paragraph headings and emphasized words (underlined or in italics) can be a great help in getting this skeleton outline of the passage. 21. Provided there is no loss of understanding, a higher reading speed will help in______. A. physics B. English C. other subjects as well as English D. economics
10、 Saying each word to yourself as you read ______. A. improves comprehension B. increases reading speed C. prevent regression D. hinders reading efficiency
3、 To do the most effective reading, you should _______ A. try every possible means to increase your reading speed B. above all improve your comprehension of the text C. hunt for whatever is implied in the reading material D. increase your reading speed and improve your understanding
