2月4日的选调考试英语阅读居然都是6级真题(内含答案) 狂晕!!!2月4日的选调考试英语阅读居然都是6级真题  第1道95年1月CET-6真题 It is a curious paradox that we think of the physical sciences as "hard", the social sciences as "soft", and the biological sciences as somewhere in between. This is interpreted to mean that our knowledge of physical systems is more certain than our knowledge of biological systems, and these in turn are more certain than our knowledge of social systems. In terms of our capacity to sample the relevant universes, however, and the probability that our images of these universes are at least approximately correct, one suspects that a reverse order is more reasonable. We are able to sample earth's social systems with some degree of confidence that we have a reasonable sample of the total universe being investigated. Our knowledge of social systems, therefore, while it is in many ways extremely inaccurate, is not likely to be seriously overturned by new discoveries. Even the folk knowledge in social systems on which ordinary life is based in earning, spending, organizing, marrying, taking part in political activities, fighting and so on, is not very dissimilar from the more sophisticated images of the social system derived from the social sciences, even though it is built upon the very imperfect samples of personal experience. In contrast, our image of the astronomical universe, of even of earth's geological history, can easily be subject to revolutionary changes as new data comes in and new theories are worked out. If we define the "security" our image of various parts of the total system as the probability of their suffering significant changes, then we would reverse the order of hardness and see the social sciences as the most secure, the physical sciences as the least secure, and again the biological sciences as somewhere in between. Our image of the astronomical universe is the least secure of all simply because we observe such a fantastically small sample of it and its record-keeping is trivial as compared with the rich records of the social systems, or even the limited records of biological systems. Records of the astronomical universe, despite the fact that we see distant things as they were long ago, are limited in the extreme. Even in regard to such a close neighbour as the moon, which we have actually visited, theories about its origin and history are extremely different, contradictory, and hard to choose among. Our knowledge of physical evolution is incomplete and highly insecure. 31. The word "paradox" (Para. 1, Line 1) means "_____". (A) implication (B) contradiction (C) interpretation (D) confusion 32. According to the author, we should reverse our classification of the physical sciences as "hard" and the social sciences as "soft" because _____. (A) a reverse ordering will help promote the development of the physical sciences (B) our knowledge of physical systems is more reliable than that of social systems (C) our understanding of the social systems is approximately correct (D) we are better able to investigate social phenomena than physical phenomena 33. The author believes that our knowledge of social systems is more secure than that of physical systems because _____. (A) it is not based on personal experience (B) new discoveries are less likely to occur in social sciences (C) it is based on a fairly representative quantity of data (D) the records of social systems are more reliable 34. The chances of the physical sciences being subject to great changes are the biggest because _____. (A) contradictory theories keep emerging all the time (B) new information is constantly coming in (C) the direction of their development is difficult to predict (D) our knowledge of the physical world is inaccurate 35. We know less about the astronomical universe than we do about any social system because _____. (A) theories of its origin and history are varied (B) our knowledge of it is highly insecure (C) only a very small sample of it has been observed (D) few scientists are involved in the study of astronomy 答案 BDBBC 第2道是99年6月的CET-6真题 British universities, groaning under the burden of a huge increase in student numbers, are warning that the tradition of a free education is at risk.The universities have threatened to impose an admission fee on students to plug a gap in revenue if the government does not act to improve their finances and scrap some public spending cutbacks. The government responded to the universities' threat by setting up the most fundamemtal review of higher education for a generation, under a non - party troubleshooter(调停人)，Sir Ron Dearing. One in three school - leavers enters higher education, five times the number when the last review took place thirty years ago. Everyone agrees a system that is feeling the strain after rapid expansion needs a lot more money - but there is little hope of getting it from the taxpayer and not much scope for attracting more finance from business. Most colleges believe students should contribute to tuition costs ,something that is common elsewhere in the world but would mark a revolutionary change in Britain. Universities want the government to introduce a loan scheme for tuition fees and have suspended their own threatened action for now. They await Dearing's advice, hoping it will not be too late - some are already reported to be in financial difficulty. As the century nears its end, the whole concept of what a university should be is under the microscope. Experts ponder how much they can use computers instead of classrooms, talk of the need for lifelong learning and refer to students as “consumers.” The Confederation(联盟)of British Industry, the key employers' organization, wants even more expansion in higher education to help fight competition on world markets from booming Asian economies. But the government has doubts about more expansion. The Times newspaper egress, complaining that quality has suffered as student numbers soared, with close tutorial supervision giving way to “mass production methods more typical of European universities.” 21. The chief concern of British universities is ______ . A) how to tackle their present financial difficulty B) how to expand the enrollment to meet the needs of enterprises C) how to improve their educational technology D) how to put an end to the current tendency of quality deterioration 22. We can learn from the passage that in Britain ______ . A) the government pays dearly for its financial policy B) universities are mainly funded by businesses C) higher education is provided free of charge D) students are ready to accept loan schemes for tuition 23. What was the percentage of high school graduates admitted to universities in Britain thirty years ago? A) 20% or so. B) About 15%. C) Above 30%. D) Below 10%. 24. It can be inferred from the passage that _______ . A) the British government will be forced to increase its spending on higher education B) British employers demand an expansion in enrollment at the expense of quality C) the best way out for British universities is to follow their European counterparts D) British students will probably have to pay for their higher education in the near future 25. Which of the following is the viewpoint of the Times newspaper? A) Expansion in enrollment is bound to affect the quality of British higher education. B) British universities should expand their enrollment to meet the needs of industry. C) European universities can better meet the needs of the modern world. D) British universities should help fight competition on world markets. 答案ACDDA |
