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 centre. Passage 1 Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: When we think about the effect of the Copernican view of the world of literature, we are likely to slip into exaggeration. It is often said that the removal of the earth from its central place in a comfortably ordered system to the status of a minor planet in vaster space was fatal blow to man’s sense of his own dignity. This idea is philosophically foolish and historically false. Throughout the Middle Ages, even though man was considered the special child of God, the earth was regarded as the poorest part of creation. Copernicus was only looking for a simpler pattern of the heavens than Ptolemy’s and he found it. Despite the work of Kepler, Galileo, and the Elizabethan experts, moreover, it took well over a century for the theory to win full acceptance even among the learned. As late as 1643, a hundred years after Copernicus’book, a scientist named Browne declared movement of the earth impossible. The reasons for delayed victory were natural. Many educated as well as uneducated men resisted contradiction of the senses and the Bible, or of Aristotle, Ptolemy, and all tradition. Many others were simply unaware or indifferent, as most of us in the twentieth century felt no acute concern over Einstein’s discoveries. In either case, few had the mathematical knowledge needed for confirmation or even comprehension of the theory; indeed, the knowledge needed to confirm Copernicus was not fully available until Newton. 21. The Copernican theory gained wide acceptance as a result of the work of_________________________________. A) Browne B) Kepler and Galileo C) Einstein D) Aristotle and Ptolemy 22. The author believes that the effect of the Copernican theory on literature_______________________________. A) has not often been consideredB) resulted from man’s loss of dignity C) contradicted the sensesD) can easily be overestimated 23. To understand the Copernican theory, one had to _________________________________. A) understand mathematics B) view the universe as an ordered system C) have read the BibleD) accept the teaching of tradition 24. The author believes that the slow reception of Copernicus’ theory__. A) was due to Browne B) was to be expected C) increased its influence D) has no historical parallels 25. Which of the following does the author say about “a simpler pattern of the heavens”? A) It was the object of Copernicus’ search. B) It became common to the thinking of the Middle Ages. C) It is considered to be philosophically foolish. D) It depended on the idea that man was the special child of God. Passage 2 Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: Allelomimetic behavior may be defined as behavior in which two or more individual animals do the same thing, with some degree of mutual simulation and coordination. It can only involve in species with sense organs that are well enough developed so that continuous sensory contact can be maintained. It is found primarily in vertebrate (脊椎动物),in those species that are diurnal, and usually in those that spend much of their lives in the air, in open water or on open plains. In birds, allelomimetic behavior is the rule rather than the exception, though it may occasionally be limited to particular seasons of the year as it is in the redwing blackbird. Its principal function is that of providing safety from predators（掠食者）, partly because the flock can rely on many pairs of eyes to watch for enemies, and partly because if one bird reacts to danger, the whole flock is warned. Among mammals, allelomimetic behavior is very rare in rodents (啮齿动物), which almost never move in flocks or herds. Even when they are artificially crowded to gether, they do not conform in their movements. On the other hand, such behavior is a major system among large hoofed mammals such as sheep. In the pack-hunting carnivores（食肉类飞禽）, allelomimetic behavior has another function that of cooperative hunting for large prey(被捕食者)animals such as moose. Wolves also defend their dens as a group against larger predators, such as bears.Finally, allelomimetic behavior is highly developed among most primate groups, where it has the principal function of providing warning against predators, though combined defensive behavior is also seen in troops of baboons (狒狒)。 26. The author implies that allelomimetic behavior occurs most often among animals that_________________________________. A) prey on other animals B) are less intelligent than their enemies C) move in groups D) have one sense organ that dominates perception 27. Which of the following is most clearly an example of allelomimetic? A) Bears hunting for carnivores. B) Cattle fleeing from a fire. C) Horses running at a racetrack. D) Dogs working with police officers. 28. According to the passage the primary function of allelomimetic behavior in bird is to_______________________________. A) defend nests against predators B) look at each other C) locate prey D) warn against predators 29. According to the passage, what happens to the behavior of rodents when they are artificially crowded together? A) Their allelomimetic behavior increases. B) Continuous cooperation between them is maintained. C) They become aggressive and attack each other. D) They show little allelomimetic behavior. 30. Which of the following groups of human beings would probably show the greatest amount of allelomimetic behavior? A) A group of students taking a test.B) Tennis players competing in a tournament . C) A patrol of soldiers scouting for the enemy.D) Drivers waiting for a traffic light to change. Passage 3 Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage: Black Americans have served with honor in every American military action, though this fact is often omitted in history books. Even though black men almost had to beg to be allowed to serve in the Revolutionary War, they went on to serve well. Two blackmen, Oliver Cromwell and Prince Whipple, were with A black man named Estabrook captured the Royal Army’s general Prescott Newport, and Peter Salem, a black, killed Major Pitcairn as he was savoring his expected victory at Bunker Hill. Even though they were forced to serve in separated units, black soldiers distinguished themselves in combat. This was despite the fact that whites had long believed that blacks could neither command nor use firearms. In 1863, William Carney of the Massachusetts Colored Infantry received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his role in battles with the Plains Indians. Isaiah Dorman, Coster’s black scout, served and died at the Little Big Horn in 1876. Henry Flipper was the first black graduate of West Point in 1877. In World War Ⅰ, 40,000 black American combat soldiers served with the French command. Neither including some 400,000 who served overseas.

This versatile and ubiquitous tree still keeps to itself the mystery of its geographical origins. Scientists may have theories, but most Pacific islanders believe that the coconut palm is of supernatural origin. Stray palms on uninhabited isles or in remote island valleys may appear wild and neglected to stranger, but chances are that some local family is watching and using them.On the other hand, the material culture of the islands is based on forest products in general, not just the coconut. Melanesian craftsmen fashion their goods from bark, fiber, wood, and other plant parts. Stone, shell, and bone are found in great variety, feathers and shell are seen as ornaments.
