Part II Reading Comprehension ( 40%)

Directions : In this part of the test , there are five short passages . Read each passage carefully , and then do the questions that follow . Choose the best answer from the four choices given and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSHER SHEET .

Passage One

There are over 6 , 000 different computer and online games in the world now. A segment of them are considered to be both educational and harmlessly entertaining. One such game teaches geography , and another trains pilots .others train the player in logical thinking and problem solving . Some games may also help young people to become more computer literate , which is more important in this technology-driven era .

But the dark side of the computer games has become more and more obvious . “A segment of games features anti-social themes of violence , sex and crude language” , says David Walsh , president of the National Institute on Media and Family . “Unfortunately , it's a segment that seems particularly popular with kids aged eight to fifteen. “

One study showed that almost 80 percent of the computer and online games young people preferred contained violence . The investigators said These are not just games anymore . These are learning machines . we’re teaching kids in the most incredible manner what it’s like to pull the trigger . what they are not learning are the real-life consequences . They also said “The new and more sophisticated games are even worse , because they have better graphics and allow the player to participate in even more realistic violent acts.” In the game Carmageddon, for example, the player will have killed up to 33 , OCX ) people by the time all levels are completed. A description of the outcome of the game says ”Your victims not only squish under your tires and splatter blood on the windshield . They also get on their knees and beg for mercy , or commit suicide . If you like , you can also dismember them.” Is all this simulated violence harmful? Approximately 3 , 000 different studies have been conducted on this subject . Many have suggested that there is a connection between violence in games and increased aggressiveness in the players .

Some specialists downplay the influence of the games , saying that other factors must be taken into consideration , such as the possibility that kids who already have violent tendencies are choosing such games . But could it be that violent games still play a contributing role ? It seems unrealistic to insist that people are not influenced by what they see . If that were true , why would the commercial world spend billions of dollars annually for television advertising ?

41 . Which of the following computer games are NOT mentioned as educational and harmlessly entertaining ?

A . Those that teach how to fly an airplane .

B . Those that teach the features of the earth .

C Those that help people use computer language

D.Those that teach computer technology .

42 . According to the investigators,

A . the new and more sophisticated games allow the players to take part in real violent acts

B . the new and more sophisticated games teach the players how to kill other people

C . most computer and online games make the players forget the real life

D . most computer and online games may cultivate young people with bad manners

43 . It can be inferred from the passage that

A . more and more young people enjoy cruel computer g

B.it is hard to find evidence of a link between violence and computer games

C.there are now more incidents of violence due to computer games

D.simulated violence in computer games is different from real violence

44.The author uses “television advertising” as an example to show that

A . the commercial world s contributing to the increased violence in real life

B . computer and online games are not the only cause of increased violence in real life

C . their is a close link between computer games and increases violence in real life

D . other factors must be considered as possible causes of violence in real life

Passage Two

The collapse of the Earth's magnetic field-which guards the planet and guides many of its creatures-appears to have started seriously about 150 years ago , the New York Times reported last week .The field's strength has decreased by 10 or 15 percent so far and this has increased the debate over whether it signals a reversal of the planet’s lines of magnetic force.

During a reversal , the main field weakens , almost vanishes , and reappears with opposite polarity (极) . The transition would take thousands of years . Once completed , compass needles that had pointed north would point south . A reversal could cause problems for both man and animals . Astronauts and satellites would have difficulties . Birds , fish and animals that rely on the inagnetic field for navigation would find migration confusing . But experts said the effects would not be a big disaster , despite daims of doom and vague evidence of links between past field reversals and species extinctions .Although a total transition may be hundreds or thousands of years away , the rapid decline in magnetic strength is already affecting satellites . Last month the European Space Agency approved the world’s largest effort at tracking the field's shifts . A group of new satellites , called Swarm , is to monitor the collapsing field with far greater precision . We want to get some idea of how this would evolve in the near future , just like people trying to predict the weather , said Gauthier Hulot , a French geophysicist working on the satellite plan, “I’m personally quite convinced we should be able to workout the first predictions by the end of the mission .”
