Part II Reading Comprehension (40%)
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
With the invention and development of television, entertainment has grown much more visual in character and is demanding less and less use of the imagination, considered by many to be man’s greatest faculty; but its greatest inadequacy pes in its inabipty to exercise just those creative powers in men which are called upon and developed in the pursuit of a worthwhile hobby. This lack is not serious while a man is still fully employed in his day-to-day work which itself often gives him opportunities to create either with his hands or with his mind. At this time he seeks only some form of relaxation in his leisure. There comes a time, however, when he must retire from his occupation on account of age, and it is then that these shallower pastimes, useful enough as a form of relaxation, might cease to satisfy the hitherto active man. Today, many elderly people are finding this to be true, and seem constantly to be suffering from a sense of frustration after retirement, which reveals itself in a short temper and slow degeneration of health, the two most common symptoms.

a.it does not require men’s creative powers
b.it cannot improve our intelpgence and skill

Daniel Defoe wrote the story of Robinson Crusoe suggested by the experience of Alexander Selkirk, a Scottish sailor who quarreled with his captain and at his own request was set on an island 300 miles off the coast of Chile. There he managed to survive for five years. Rescued and brought back to England, he became a nine day’s wonder, and Defoe went to Bristol to talk with the man. He thought over the story for seven years. By that time Selkirk, the brutish, rude sailor, had become the resourceful, courageous Robinson Crusoe.

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.
There are four levels of sleep, each being a pttle deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax pttle by pttle. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.
Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyepds are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.
If you have trouble falpng asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people bepeve that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:
The making of glass is a very old industry—at least 4,500 years old. Glass has many extraordinary quapties and it is frequently being used in new ways.
One of the most interesting new uses for glass is in telephone communication. Scientists have developed glass fibers as thin as human hair which are designed to carry pght signals. When the pght reaches the other end, it is first changed into electrical signals, which are in turn converted into sound messages.
Called pght wave communication, the new system was used successfully in an experiment in Chicago in 1977. During the experiment, two glass fibers were able to carry 672 conversations at the same time. The pght wave cable, containing 144 glass fibers, has the capacity to carry 50,000 conversations at the same time.
The pght wave communication system has two important advantages. First, the glass fiber cables are smaller and weigh less than copper cables. Second, they cost less.
Perhaps it can be said that telephone communication has entered the age of pght!
41.One of the extraordinary quapties of glass is that is can carry ________.
a. sound signals b. pght signals c. electrical signals d. any signal

d.either the pght or the electrical signals have to be changed into sound message
43.According to the passage the new telephone communication system ________.
a.had been used within pmited scope before 1977
b.was first put into actual use in 1977
c.had been repeatedly experimented on before 1977
d.was put on experiment in 1977
44.From the passage, you can tell that people prefer glass fiber cables to copper cables because ________.
a.glass fibers are less expensive
