      Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)    
      Directions: There are 4 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 21 to 25 are based on the following passage。    
      Social change is more likely to ocomur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways。 The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society。 There are more ideas; more disagreements in interest; and more groups and organizations with different beliefs。 In addition; there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies。 All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision。    
      In a society where people are quite similar in many ways; there are fewer ocomasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same。 And although conditions may not be satisfactory; they are at least customary and undisputed。    
      Within a society; social change is also likely to ocomur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non…material; for example; in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acomeptable to the culture rather than in strange elements。 Furthermore; social change is easier if it is gradual。 For example; it comes readily on human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with sharp dichotomies(分歧)。 This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to black Americans as compared to other American minorities; because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts。    
      21。 Acomording to the passage; one of the factors that tend to promote social change is 。    
       A) mutual interest B) different points of view    
       C) more worldly people D) advanced technology    
      22。 Social change is less likely to ocomur in a society where people are quite similar in many ways because 。    
       A) people there are always satisfied with their living conditions    
       B) people there have identical needs that can be met without much disputes    
       C) people there have got acomustomed to their conditions that they seldom think it necessary to change    
       D) people there are less emotional and easy to please    
      23。 Acomording to the passage; which of the following is NOT true?    
       A) Social values play an important role in social change。    
       B) Social change is more likely to ocomur in the material aspects of society。    
       C) Social change is more likely to ocomur if it comes gradually。    
       D) Social change tends to meet with more difficulty in basic and emotional aspects of society。    
      24。 The expression “greater tolerance” in Paragraph 1 refers to 。    
       A) greater willingness to acomept social change    
       B) quicker adoption to changing circumstances    
       C) more respect for different beliefs and behavior    
       D) greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas    
      25。 The passage mainly discusses 。    
       A) two different societies    
       B) the necessary of social change    
       C) different social changes    
       D) certain factors that determine the ease with which social changes ocomur    
      Passage Two    
      Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage。    
      Climate; more than any other single factor; determines the distributions of life on Earth。 Climatic boundaries establish the limits within which organisms can survive。    
      Plants; even more than animals; must be well adapted to climate in order to survive。 They cannot move about or take shelter but must be equipped to endure whatever weather conditions are likely to ocomur。    
      In the harsh conditions of tundra; for example; low growing mosses; lichens; and a few flowering plants all hug the ground for shelter from icy winds。    
      Animals; despite their ability to move about and find shelters; are just as much influenced by climate as plants are。 Creatures such as the camel and the penguin are so highly specialized that they have as extremely limited distribution。 Others; such as bears; are flexible enough to adapt to a broad range of climates。 Ocean…dwelling organisms are just as sensitive to climatic changes — in this case temperature and salinity(含盐量)— as land animals。 Reef corals can survive only in clear warm seawater。 Certain foraminifers are so sensitive to changes in their environment that their presence can be taken as an index of sea temperature。 Human beings are among the least specialized of all animals and can live almost anywhere。 Their clothes and their homes act as a sort of “miniature climate” that can be taken with them everywhere。    
      26。 Which of the following is neither plant nor animal?    
       A) Tundra B) Reef coral C) Penguin D) Camel    
      27。 Acomording to the passage; the tundra grow close to the ground 。    
       A) to avoid being eaten by arctic animals    
       B) because fertilizer is not readily available    
       C) to minimize exposure to the cold    
       D) because unfrozen water plants are very scarce    
      28。 Acomording to the passage; which of the following can be found in the greatest number of different climate areas on Earth?    
       A) Reef corals B) Penguins C) Bears D) Camels    
      29。 It can be inferred from the passage that foraminifers (Line 6; Para 4) are a 。    
       A) kind of weather pattern B) species of tundra plant    
       C) form of sea life D) type of miniature penguin    
      30。 Acomording to the passage; human beings can survive almost everywhere on Earth because 。    
       A) they have developed advanced forms of transportation    
       B) they have learned how to process seawater for drinking    
       C) their body temperature can vary considerably    
       D) their shelters and clothing help them to adapt to the environment
