     In many parts of the world, cars play an important role in daily life and many societies would not exist
without them. 1_____ But this is the prediction made by a team of transport researchers who are taken
seriously, not only by government but also by car manufacturers.
     The Human Science and Advanced Technology Institute at Loughborough in the UK is part of an
international research program. 2_____ That will mean much saving, no accidents and better use of roads.
The super-intelligent car of the 21st century will drive itself, 3_____ Instead, we will have a choice of cars
and change them as frequently as we change our clothing.
     According to Dr. David Davis, who leads the research team, these predictions are based on the rising
cost of the car culture, which had blocked up our cities, polluted our air, and caused more deaths than both
world wars put together.
     Davis says, cars will be fitted with some intelligent devices (裝置) to regulate (調(diào)節(jié)) the distance
between one car and another. 4_____ Computers are much safer drivers than people, so cars in a road train
will be able to drive much closer together than cars driven by people.
     By 2020, Dr. David Davis believes,car technology will give motorists a clear view of the road, whatever
the weather conditions, by projecting an image (影像) of the road ahead on to the car's wind-screen.
5_____ Cars will be connected by an electronic tow bar to the car in front to form" road-trains". "The front
vehicle in such a train burns the normal amount." says Davis. "But all the others in the train would burn about
ten percent of the normal amount, and so produce about ten percent of the pollution."
A. The team there believes that by 2030 all cars will be computerized.
B. They believe that cars will become more important in 20 years.
C. And it will not be owned by one individual.
D. And by 2030, cars will travel in line, linked to each other electronically.
E. So the idea that in 20 years' time, no one will own cars may be hard to believe.
F. Every driver will use less fuel in the car he owns.
G. The car will automatically speed up, or slow down, to match the speed of the car in front.

     When students and parents are asked to rate subjects according to their importance, the arts are
unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. Too often it
is viewed as mere entertainment, but certainly not an education priority (優(yōu)先).This view is shortsighted.
In fact, music education is beneficial and important for all students.
     Music tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their
thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just
as surely as a Schubert song. The jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced
into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music
expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.
     Music provides a kind of perception(感知)that cannot be acquired any other way. Science can
explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore the emotional meaning of the same phenomenon. We
need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No
one way can get it all.
     The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what they communicate as mathematical and scientific
symbols. They are ways we human beings "talk" to each other. They are the language of civilization
through which we express our fears, our curiosities, our hungers, our discoveries, and our hopes. The
arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination so that they can be shared with others. When
we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take
away from them the meanings that music expresses.
     Science and technology do not tell us what it means to be human. The arts do. Music is an important
way we express human suffering, celebration, the meaning and value of peace and love.
So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize. 

1. According to Paragraph 1,students_________.
A. regard music as a way of entertainment
B. disagree with their parents on education
C. view music as an overlooked subject
D. prefer the arts to science

2. In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to ___________.
A. compare it with rock music
B. show music reflects a society
C. introduce American musical traditions
D. prove music influences people's lifestyles

3. According to the passage, the arts and science________.
A. approach the world from different angles
B. explore different phenomena of the world
C. express people's feelings in different ways
D. explain what it means to be human differently

4. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Music education deserves more attention.
B. Music should be of top education priority.
C. Music is an effective communication tool.
D. Music education makes students more imaginative. '

     Our spiritual intelligence quotient(精神智商),or SQ, helps us understand ourselves, and live fuller,
happier lives.
     Though we're all born with SQ, most of us don't even realize that we have it. Fortunately, you don't
have to sign up for classes to learn how to improve your SQ. Here are some simple steps that can lead
you to this new level of understanding.
     Sit Quietly. The process of developing spiritual intelligence begins with solitude(獨(dú)處)and silence. To
tune in to your spirit
, you have to turn down the volume(強(qiáng)度)in your busy, noisy, complicated life and
force yourself to do nothing at all. Start small by creating islands for silence in your day. In the car, instead of listening to the music, use the time to think. At work, shut the door to your office between meetings, take a few breaths and let them out very, very slowly. Enjoy the stillness in your home after the kids are finally in bed.
     Step Outside. For many people, nature sets their spirit free. Go outside to watch a beautiful sunset. If
you are walking with the dog, take the time to admire flowers in bloom; follow the flight of a bird and
watch clouds float overhead.
     Ask Questions of Yourself. Ask open-ended questions, such as "What am I Feeling? What are my
choices? Where am I heading?"
     But don't expect an answer to arrive through some supernatural forms of e-mail. "Rarely do I get an
immediate answer to my question," says Reverend Joan Carter, a Presbyterian minister in Sausalito,
California. "But later that day I suddenly find myself thinking about a problem in a perspective(角度) I
never considered before."
     Trust Your Spirit. While most of us rely on gut(本能的)feeling to realize danger, spiritual intelligence
pushes us, not away from, but towards some action that will lead to a greater good.

1. The passage is mainly about______.
A. what your SQ is and in what way it can benefit our life
B. what your SQ is and in what way it can be improved
C. the relationship between your SQ and your life
D. advantages and disadvantages of SQ

2. The underlined phrase "to tune in to your spirit" in the third paragraph probably
means to_________
A. get your spirit relaxed
B. keep up your spirit
C. keep seated quietly                
D. change your spirit

3. From the passage, we can know that the most important thing to improve your SQ is______
A. a peaceful mind      
B. deep thought
C. spare time and hobbies
D. good spirits

4. According to the passage, which of the following is True?
A. Not everyone has SQ.
B. You have to go to classes to learn how to improve your SQ.
C. SQ leads us to take wrong actions.
D. SQ can benefit our life.

     Scientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for the difference between boys and girls.
However, none were believable enough to explain the general picture. As one scientist points out, "There
are slight genetic(遺傳的) differences between the sexes at birth which may affect the subjects boys and
girls choose. But the difficulty is that by the time children reach school age, there are so many other effects that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse at science and maths, or whether they've been brought up to think of these subjects as boys'' territory".
     Statistics(統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)) show that in mathematics, at least, girls are equal to boys. A recent report
suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics because of social attitudes. One of the reports' authors
says, "While it is socially unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write, it is still acceptable for women to say that they are 'hope-less' at maths. Our research shows that, although girls get marks which
are as good as the boys', they have not been encouraged to do so."
     The explanation for the difference, which is very clear during the teenage years, goes as far back as
early childhood experiences. From their first days in nursery school, girls are not encouraged to work on
their own or to complete tasks, although boys are. For example, boys but not girls, are often asked to
'help' with repair work. This encouragement leads to a way of learning how to solve problems later on in
life. Evidence shows that exceptional mathematicians and scientists did not have teachers who supplied
answers; they had to find out for themselves.
A further report on maths teaching shows that teachers seem to give more attention to boys than to girls.
Most teachers who took part in the study admitted that they expect their male students to do better at
mathematics and science subjects than their female students. All of this tends to encourage boys to work
harder in these subjects, gives them confidence  and makes them believe that they can succeed.    
      Interestingly, both boys and girls tend to regard such 'male' subjects like mathematics and science as
difficult. Yet it has been suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses, not because they are difficult, but
for social reasons.
     Mathematics and science are mainly male subjects, and therefore, as girls become teenagers, they are
less likely to take them up. Girls do not seem to want to be in open competition with boys. Neither do
they want to do better than boys because they are afraid to appear less female and so, less attractive.

1. The underlined word "territory" in the second paragraph most probably means "      ".
A. interest  
B. area of land  
C. special field  
D. district

2. According to scientific studies,             .
A.  maths is not fit for girls to learn  
B.  boys have a special sense of maths
C.  girls are poorer at maths because they are the weaker sex
D.  girls can learn maths as well as boys if given enough encouragement

3. Those who made extraordinary contribution in mathematics and science         .
A.usually had good teachers to help them
B. had the abilities to solve problems by themselves
C. usually worked harder than others
D. were encouraged to repair things when young

4. Which of the following is not true according to the text?
A. It seems socially acceptable for a girl not to be able to read and write.
B. It is a social problem rather than a problem of brains that girls are poor at maths
C. Mathematics and science are no easy subjects to either girls or boys.
D. There is no connection between a girl's ability in maths and her appearance.

5. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Who's Afraind of Maths Anyway?
B. Are Boys Cleverer than Girls?
C. Boys Are Better at Maths than Girls by Birth

     A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that
although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. Puppy
love(早戀) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression(憂郁癥). The study shows
that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.
     The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is "loss
of self". According to the study, even though boys would say "lose themselves in a romantic
relationship", this "loss of self" is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. Young
girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions. They won't tell that to
their parents. 
      Dr. Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will
have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression.
     She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young
people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. She also suggests the parents should
encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend
enough time with family.
     Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes—and if they see signs from
their daughter or son, they need to give help. The good news is that the connection between romance
and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young, but only maturity(成熟) gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.
1. What's the main idea of the passage?
A. Romance is a two-edged sword for adults  
B. Parents should forbid their children's love lives.  
C. Puppy love may bring young people depression.  
D. Romance is good for young people.
2. Which of the following is more likely to have depression?  
A. Young girls who always hide their feelings and opinions.  
B. Young boys whose parents watch for their behavior.  
C. Young people who have a strong sense of self.  
D. Careless parents whose children are deep in love.
3. What can be inferred from the passage?  
A .Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.  
B. The older a woman is, the less likely she seems to lose herself in romance.  
C .Parents should help their children to be aware of the signs of depression.  
D. Early love makes young people keep close to their friends and parents.
4. What's the author's attitude towards puppy love?
A. Confused.
B. Scared.
C. Disinterested.
D. Disapproving.

    Recently. a survey was done among 288,000 students. which shows that today's traditionalage college
freshmen are "more materialistic and less altruistic (利他主義的)" than at any time in the 19 years of the
poll(民意調(diào)查).
      Not surprisingly. in these hard times. the students' major purpose "is to be financially well off."
Developing a meaningful philosophy of life is less important than ever. It follows then that today the most
popular course is not literature or history but accounting.
     Interest in teaching. social service and the "altruistic" fields is at a low. On the other hand. enrollment
in business programs. engineering and computer science is way up.
      That's no surprise either. A friend of mine (a sales representative for a chemical company) was making twice the salary of her college instructors in her first year on the job-even before she completed her
twoyear associate degree.
     Though it's true that we all need a career. it is equally true that our civilization has accumulated an
incredible amount of knowledge in fields far beyond our own and that it will be better for our
understanding of these other contributions-either scientific or artistic.
     Similarly. it is true that. in studying the diverse wisdom of others. we learn how to think. More
importantly. perhaps. education teaches us to see the connections between things. as well as to see
beyond our immediate needs.
     Weekly we read of unions who went on strike for higher wages. only to drive their employer out of
business. No company. no job. How shortsighted in the long run!
But the most important argument for a broad education is that in studying the accumulated wisdom of the
ages. we improve our moral sense. I saw a cartoon recently which shows a group of businessmen looking puzzled as they sit around a conference table;one of them is talking on the intercom (對講機(jī)) : "Miss
Baxter. " he says. "could you please send in someone who can distinguish right from wrong?"
     From the longterm point of view. that's what education really ought to be about.

1.According to the result of the survey. college students ________.
A.take developing a meaningful philosophy of life more seriously
B.have a wide range of knowledge in many aspects
C.pay more attention to the study of literature
D.have never been so materialistic as today

2.The students' criteria (標(biāo)準(zhǔn)) for choosing their majors today are largely basedon ________.
A.their own understanding of the courses
B.the financial goals they seek in life
C.the influence of their instructors
D.the vast potential for the future educational development

3.What does the fifth paragraph imply?
A.Knowledge in other fields has nothing to do with one's career.
B.Business management should be included in educational programs.
C.The importance of a broad education should not be ignored.
D.A good understanding of the civilization will make students rich.

4.The author's attitude to the effect of studying the diverse wisdom of others is ________.
A.positive  
B.indifferent  
C.doubtful  
D.negative

5.The writer wrote the passage in order to indicate that ________.
A.college students today are not a diligent generation
B.people engaged in technical jobs lead a more meaningful life
C.career seekers shouldn't focus on immediate interests only
D.working experience outside college counts a lot to one's future career

     If we agree that the function of education is to prepare us for life, then there is very little time to waste. So, while we can, we ought to concentrate on teaching children something really useful. Here is what our
schools should teach.
     Politeness is a mark of civilization. The sooner children learn this, the better. In any case, a lot can be
accomplished by a smile and good manners.
     Like it or not, our adult lives will be consumed by the struggle for money, but we don't make an effort
to teach children how to manage it. So our schools have a duty to teach them this ability from the
beginning.
     We're likely to accept something we are told, but that's not what educated people do. Educated
people are reasonable and they look at facts. If our schools teach nothing else, they should at least teach
critical ( 批判性的) thinking.
     Children should learn to take care of their health. They should know that if they eat junk food ( 垃圾
食品) ,they will become fat and unhealthy. They should be very clear about what happens to their bodies when they drink or smoke.
    All of us are part of society. We have rights and responsibilities. We ought to understand what they
are.   We have to know a little bit of our history and geography, because we need to have an environment
in which to relate to the people around us.
     How will we test students on these? We can't. But that's not a reason to avoid teaching what is
important. Our schools should spend every moment they have telling this to our children :"This is life, this
is what you are going to face, and this is how you deal with it."

      Having entered a boarding school, Ada and her twin sister Rita determined to strike out independently. Although the sisters had requested rooms in different buildings, they were placed in the same, Ada on the
eighth floor and Rita one floor higher. While Ada lived in harmony with her roommate, Rita was unhappy. She and her roommate had a quarrel over matters like the smallest thing-the time of lights being turned
off-and the biggest thing-the arrangement of the furniture. Finally, they communicated primarily through
short notes rather than by speaking. Rita kept running down along the stairs to ask Ada for help. Before
long, the two wanted to live together again. Rita's roommate finally had to move out.
      Rita's ability to solve her problem by rooming with her twin is unusual, but the conflict she faced is not. Despite great efforts by many schools to make good roommate matches, unpleasant outcomes are
common.
      Most conflicts between roommates develop from small, annoying differences. In extreme cases, the
conflicts can lead to serious violence and affect roommates' psychological ( 心理的) health.
Learning to tolerate a stranger's habits may teach students the art of compromise, but the learning process
is often painful.
     Many schools have started conflict solution programs to calm tensions that could build up like a volcano preparing to explode, resulting in physical violence.Some schools try to prevent conflicts by using computerized matching. Students are put together on the basis of their answers to housing form questions about
preferred hours of study and sleep, and selfdescribed tendencies toward tidiness or disorder. Parents
sometimes weaken the process by taking the forms and filling in false data about their children's habits.
     If only conflicts between roommates could disappear!
