四、阅读理解

阅读理解：共15小题；每题3分，共45分。

1.“Seasame Street” has been called “the longest street in the world”. 　　This is because the television program by that name can nowf be seen in so many parts of the world.The program,which went on the air in New York in 1969,uses songs,jokes,and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human Relationships. More than 6 million children in the United States watch it regularly. The viewers (观众) include more than half the nation, schildren before school age. 　　Many teachers consider the program a great help, though some teachers find that problems happen when the first-year pupils who have learned from “Seasame Street” are in the same class with those who have not watched the program. Tests have shown that children who watch it five times a week learn more than those who seldom watch it. In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly. 　　Why has “Seasame Street” been so much more successful than other children’s shows? Many reasons have been suggested. Perhaps one reason is that mothers watch “Seasame Street” along with their children. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning,and he wants to learn more.People call “Seasame Street” the longest street in the world because

A.it is the longest TV program ever produced
B.it took much more time to put on this program than any other one
C.it is shown almost throughout the world
D.it has been on the air since 1969

2. “Seasame Street” is a TV program produced mainly for

3. “Seasame Street” is so successful mainly because

C.it is impossible to begin class at the fixed time
D.they don’t want to leam anythihg more

5. Student participation (参与)in tike classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student’ s oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role(i. e. , listening and taking notes) , many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions, and informal lectures. In graduate discussions the profess or has a “manager”role and the students make presentations and lead discussions. The students do the actual teaching in these discussions. 　　A professor’ s teaching method is another factor (因素)that determines the degree and type of student participation. Some professors prefer to control discussion while others prefer to guide the class without controlling it. Many professors encourage students to question their ideas. Students who object to the professor’ s point of view should be prepared to prove their positions. 　　In the teaching of science and mathematics, the controlling mode of instruction is generally traditional, with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking notes. However,new educational trends have turned up in the humanities and social sciences in the past twenty years. Students in education,society, and history classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations, and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are“practical” rather than theoretical，they pay more attention to “doing” for themselves.“Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the student” in many courses except in____.

A.science and mathematics
B.the humanities and social sciences
C.informal lecture courses
D.discussion courses

6. From the passage we know that education in the humanities and society____.

B.pay attention to students’ studying instead of teachers’ teaching
C.is much more important than that of science and mathematics

8. Which of the following sentences is true according to the passage?

A.Student participation is not common in the classroom in many courses like society.
B.Some professors want to control the classroom discussion.
C.Some professors usually want the students to take part in the teaching of science and mathematics.
D.New educational trends have turned up in teaching of natural sciences such as chemistry.

9.Life gets noisier every day and very few people can free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn’ t matter where you live—in the middle of a modem city, or a faraway village—the chances that you will be disturbed by jet aeroplanes, transistor radios, oil powered engines, etc. , are almost everywhere. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without back-ground music while they are working. 　　Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be very frightening experience for human beings. However,some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud,and this can do harm to their eardrums (耳鼓).The noise level in some disco is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas. 　　One recent report about noise and concentration (专心)suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really affects their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise, which doesn’ t change too much (music,for example) may even help people to concentrate.From this passage,the pollution of noise____.

A.doesn’ t matter much
B.has become worse everywhere
C.has become better in big cities
D.has become better in villages

10.“Background music” in the passage means____.

A.music played in the concert

B.great changes in level of noise
C.background noise

13.If you are writing or studying,it makes very much difference where the light comes from. People who use books and pens every day have to be especially careful about the way the light shines on their work. 　　Every house gets its light either from daylight through the windows—which is the best to use—or from lamps or electricity;but whichever kind of light it is, the way it shines toward our book or work is a matter of great importance to the eyes. 　　Take a book，sit with your back toward the window，and try to read. Your shadow(影子)falls all over the page and makes it almost as bad for your eyes as if you were in a dark room. 　　Now turn around and face the window. The page is in the shadow again,while the bright light is in your eyes. 　　Try sitting with your right side toward the window. This is very well for reading, but if you were writing,the shadow of your hand would fall across the page and bother(打撹)you a little. 　　There is just one other way：sit with your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for reading and for writing,too. 　　Whatever kind of light is in the room,the rule about the right to sit is always the same.Which of the following is true?

A.How the light shines on our work is of much importance
B.The way the light shines on your work makes no difference
