6、Text 2 At the start of the year, The Independent on Sunday argued that there were three over-whelming reasons why Iraq should not be invaded: there was no proof that Saddam posed an imminent threat; Iraq would be even more unstable as a result of its liberation; and a conflict would increase the threat posed by terrorists. What we did not know was that Tony Blair had received intelligence and advice that raised the very same points. Last week’s report from the Intelligence and Security Committee included the revelation that some of the intelligence had warned that a war against Iraq risked an increased threat of terrorism. Why did Mr. Blair not make this evidence available to the public in the way that so much of the alarmist intelligence on Saddam’s weapons was published? Why did he choose to ignore the intelligence and argue instead that the war was necessary, precisely because of the threat posed by international terrorism? There have been two parliamentary investigations into this war and the Hutton inquiry reopens tomorrow. In their different ways they have been illuminating, but none of them has addressed the main issues relating to the war. The Foreign Affairs Committee had the scope to range widely, but chose to become entangled in the dispute between the Government and the BBC. The Intelligence Committee reached the conclusion that the Government’s file on Saddam’s weapons was not mixed up, but failed to explain why the intelligence was so hopelessly wrong. The Hutton inquiry is investigating the death of Dr. David Kelly, a personal tragedy of marginal relevance to the war against Iraq. Tony Blair has still to come under close examination about his conduct in the building-up to war. Instead, the Defence Secretary, Geoff Hoon, is being fingered as if he were master-minding the war behind everyone’s backs from the Ministry of Defence. Mr. Hoon is not a minister who dares to think without consulting Downing Street first. At all times he would have been dancing to Downing Street’s tunes. Mr. Blair would be wrong to assume that he can draw a line under all of this by making Mr. Hoon the fall-guy. It was Mr. Blair who decided to take Britain to war, and a Cabinet of largely skeptical ministers that backed him. It was Mr. Blair who told MPs that unless Saddam was removed, terrorists would pose a greater global threat—even though he had received intelligence that suggested a war would lead to an increase in terrorism. Parliament should be the forum in which the Prime Minister is called more fully to account, but Iain Duncan Smith’s support for the war has neutered an already inept opposition. In the absence of proper parliamentary scrutiny, it is left to newspapers like this one to keep asking the most important questions until the Prime Minister answers them.
第26题:We learn from the first two paragraphs that _____.
[A] the evidence should have been made available to the Parliament [B] the necessity of war has been exaggerated by the Committee [C] Blair had purposely ignored some of the intelligence he received [D] it was The Independent that first revealed the intelligence

7、第27题:The author thinks that the Hutton enquiry is _____.
[A] also beside the mark [B] hopelessly wrong [C] illuminating in its way [D] wide in scope

8、第28题:By “chose to become entangled” (Line 4,Paragraph 3), the author implies that _____.
[A] the dispute between the Government and the BBC was unnecessary [B] the Foreign Affairs Committee had mixed up the argument [C] it was entirely wrong to carry out such investigations [D] the Intelligence Committee shouldn’t mix up with the affair

9、第29题:It can be learned from Paragraph 4 that _____.
[A] most ministers were suspicious of Hoon’s conduct [B] Hoon will not do anything without consulting Blair [C] Blair should not divert his responsibility to his Cabinet [D] MPs think that it is Blair who drags the country into the war

10、第30题:What is the author’s attitude towards the Parliament?
[A] Indignant. [B] Skeptical. [C] Inquisitive. [D] Critical.

11、Text 3Scholastic thinkers held a wide variety of doctrines in both philosophy and theology, the study of religion. What gives unity to the whole Scholastic movement, the academic practice in Europe from the 9th to the 17th centuries, are the common aims, attitudes, and methods generally accepted by all its members. The chief concern of the Scholastics was not to discover new facts but to integrate the knowledge already acquired separately by Greek reasoning and Christian revelation. This concern is one of the most characteristic differences between Scholasticism and modern thought since the Renaissance. The basic aim of the Scholastics determined certain common attitudes, the most important of which was their conviction of the fundamental harmony between reason and revelation. The Scholastics maintained that because the same God was the source of both types of knowledge and truth was one of his chief attributes, he could not contradict himself in these two ways of speaking. Any apparent opposition between revelation and reason could be traced either to an incorrect use of reason or to an inaccurate interpretation of the words of revelation. Because the Scholastics believed that revelation was the direct teaching of God, it possessed for them a higher degree of truth and certainty than did natural reason. In apparent conflicts between religious faith and philosophic reasoning, faith was thus always the supreme arbiter; the theologians decision overruled that of the philosopher. After the early 13th century, Scholastic thought emphasized more the independence of philosophy within its own domain. Nonetheless, throughout the Scholastic period, philosophy was called the servant of theology, not only because the truth of philosophy was subordinated to that of theology, but also because the theologian used philosophy to understand and explain revelation. This attitude of Scholasticism stands in sharp contrast to the so-called double-truth theory of the Spanish-Arab philosopher and physician Averroёs. His theory assumed that truth was accessible to both philosophy and Islamic theology but that only philosophy could attain it perfectly. The so-called truths of theology served, hence, as imperfect imaginative expressions for the common people of the authentic truth accessible only to philosophy. Averroёs maintained that philosophic truth could even contradict, at least verbally, the teachings of Islamic theology. As a result of their belief in the harmony between faith and reason, the Scholastics attempted to determine the precise scope and competence of each of these faculties. Many early Scholastics, such as the Italian ecclesiastic and philosopher St. Anselm, did not clearly distinguish the two and were overconfident that reason could prove certain doctrines of revelation. Later, at the height of the mature period of Scholasticism, the Italian theologian and philosopher St. Thomas Aquinas worked out a balance between reason and revelation.
第31题:With the Scholastics, the search for new knowledge _____.
[A] stopped completely [B] slowed down [C] advanced rapidly [D] awaked gradually

12、第32题:Which of the following best illustrates the relation between reason and revelation?
[A] They are simply identical. [B] Revelation guides reason. [C] They are occasionally contradictory. [D] Reason is used to perfect revelation.

13、第33题:It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 of the text that _____.
[A] the position of philosophy as a humble servant was accepted [B] religion had turned into a hamper to the functioning of philosophy [C] philosophers often quoted revelation to support themselves [D] philosophers were sometimes referred to in religious practice

14、第34题:Averroёs held that _____.
[A] Islamic theology was often subordinate to philosophy [B] religious truth was nothing but imaginative fantasy [C] real truth was inaccessible to many common people [D] imperfect expressions were result of flawed religion

15、第35题:Which of the following is most likely to be discussed in the part succeeding this text?
[A] Relations of St. T. Aquinas’ achievements to previous efforts. [B] How St. T. Aquinas worked out in the balance in discussion. [C] Other endeavors on the relationship of reason and revelation. [D] Outstanding features of the mature period of Scholasticism.

16、Text 4 Despite the general negative findings, it is important to remember that all children who live through a divorce do not behave in the same way. The specific behavior. depends on the child’s individual personality, characteristics, age at the time of divorce, and gender. In terms of personality, when compared to those rated as relaxed and easygoing, children described as temperamental and irritable have more difficulty coping with parental divorce, as indeed they have more difficulty adapting to life change in general. Stress, such as that found in disrupted families, seems to impair the ability of temperamental children to adapt to their surroundings, the greater the amount of stress, the less well they adapt. In contrast, a moderate amount of stress may actually help an easygoing, relaxed child learn to cope with adversity. There is some relationship between age and children’s characteristic reaction to divorce. As the child grows older, the greater is the likelihood of a free expression of a variety of complex feelings, an understanding of those feelings, and a realization that the decision to divorce cannot be attributed to any one simple cause. Self-blame virtually disappears after the age of 6, fear of abandonment diminishes after the age of 8, and the confusion and fear of the young child is replaced in the older child by shame, anger, and self-reflection. Gender of the child is also a factor that predicts the nature of reaction to divorce. The impact of divorce is initially greater on boys than on girls. They are more aggressive, less compliant, have greater difficulties in interpersonal relationships, and exhibit problem behaviors both at home and at school. Furthermore, the adjustment problems of boys are still noticeable even two years after the divorce. Girls’ adjustment problems are usually internalized rather than acted out, and are often resolved by the second year after the divorce. However, new problems may surface for girls as they enter adolescence and adulthood. How can the relatively greater impact of divorce on boys than on girls be explained? The greater male aggression and noncompliance may reflect the fact that such behaviors are tolerated and even encouraged in males in our culture more than they are in females. Furthermore, boys may have a particular need for a strong male model of self-control, as well as for a strong disciplinarian parent. Finally, boys are more likely to be exposed to their parents’ fights than girls are, and after the breakup, boys are less likely than girls to receive sympathy and support from mothers, teachers, or peers.
第36题:Temperamental, irritable kids have difficulty adapting to parental divorce because_____.
[A] they care too much about the life change [B] the great stress of their families diminishes their ability [C] they tend to lose temper easily and are sensitive to the life change [D] they are faced with more parents’ fights than the relaxed, easygoing children

17、第37题:The following statements are true EXCEPT_____.
[A] divorce is usually caused by more than one reason [B] a six-year-old boy may fear being deserted by his parents [C] as the kids grow older, they have a better understanding of divorce [D] a young girl may feel more shameful on parental divorce than an older boy

18、第38题:It can be inferred from the passage that the impact of divorce_____.
[A] on kids of different sexes will probably change as they grow older [B] may cause most kids’ difficulties in communicating with others [C] on an irritable girl is greater than a noncompliant boy [D] is always greater on boys than on girls

19、第39题:According to the author, the reason why parental divorce has greater effect on boys than on girls is that_____.
[A] all cultures encourage male aggression and noncompliance [B] boys are always involved in their parents’ fights [C] males are usually viewed as the models in self-control and strong will [D] boys are basically more self-disciplined than girls

20、第40题:What is the main idea of the passage?
[A] Parental divorce has a negative effect on children all through their life. [B] The impact of parental divorce on children varies in personality, age and gender. [C] Boys may become more aggressive than girls in disrupted families. [D] Kids of different ages behave differently on parental divorce.

1、第45题:
[A] As more has become known of the many thousands of African plant species and their complex ecology, naming, classification, and mapping have also become more particular, stressing what was actually present rather than postulating about climatic potential. [B] In regions of higher rainfall, such as eastern Africa, savanna vegetation is maintained by periodic fires. Consuming dry grass at the end of the rainy season, the fires burn back the forest vegetation, check the invasion of trees and shrubs, and stimulate new grass growth. [C] Once, as with the scientific treatment of African soils, a much greater uniformity was attributed to the vegetation than would have been generally accepted in the same period for treatments of the lands of western Europe or the United States. [D] The vegetational map of Africa and general vegetation groupings used here follow the White map and its extensive annotations. [E] African vegetation zones are closely linked to climatic zones, with the same zones occurring both north and south of the equator in broadly similar patterns. As with climatic zones, differences in the amount and seasonal distribution of precipitation constitute the most important influence on the development of vegetation. [F] Nevertheless, in broad terms, climate remains the dominant control over vegetation. Zonal belts of precipitation, reflection latitude and contrasting exposure to the Atlantic and Indian oceans and their currents, give some reality to related belts of vegetation. [G] The span of human occupation in Africa is believed to exceed that of any other continent. All the resultant activities have tended, on balance, to reduce tree cover and increase grassland; but there has been considerable dispute among scholars concerning the natural versus human-caused development of most African grasslands at the regional level.
