Ⅱ.Reading Comprehension 15%
Directions:There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by five questions or
unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide
on the BEST ONE.
Passage 1
Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space.The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural difference,not an economic one.Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices,including,for example,the number of bedrooms in the home.If you were brought up in a two child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms,the chances are if you have two children or more,that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them.In America,for example,they train people to want to have their own rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies.This is very unusual in the world.In many other countries,the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in bed near them. The space in the home also shows a lot about the psychological space needs.Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it.Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone. Although it is true that the psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons,they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressure.It is almost impossibe,however,to completely change your psychological space needs.

Passage 2
Flying over a desert area in an airplane,two scientists looked down with trained eyes at trees and bushes,After an hour s flight one of the scientists wrote in his book,“Look here for probable metal.”Scientists in another airplane,flying over a mountain area,sent a message to other scientists on the ground,“Gold possible.”Walking across hilly ground,four scientists reported.“The ground should be searched for metal.”From an airplane over a hilly wasteland a scientist sent there by radio one word:“Uranium.” None of the scientists had X ray eyes:they had on magic powers of looking down below the earth s surface.They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of locating minerals in the ground,using trees and plants as signs that certain minerals may lie beneath the ground on which trees and plants are growing. This newest method of searchng for minerals is based on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of bushes and trees that grow on the surface. At Weston Bar Greek,a brook six thousand feet high in the mountains of British Columbia,Canada,a mineral search group gathered bags of tree seeds.Boxes were filled with small branches from the trees.Roots were dug and put into boxes.Each bag and box was carefully marked.In a scientific laboratory the parts of the forest trees were burned to ashes and tested.Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it. Study of the roots,branches,and seeds showed no silver.But there were small amounts of gold in the roots and a little less gold in the branches and seeds.The seeds growing nearest to the tree trunk had more gold than those growing on the ends of the branches.

Passage 3
Taiwan police cannot decide whether to treat it as an extremely clever act of stealing or an even cleverer cheat.Either way,it could be the perfect crime,because the criminals are birds-homing pigeons! The crime begins with a telephone message to the owner of a stolen car:if you want the car back,pay up.Then,the car owner is directed to a park,told where to find a bird cage and how to attach money to the neck of the pigeon inside.Carrying the money in a tiny bag,the pigeon flies off. There have been at least four such pigeon pick ups in Changwa.What at first seemed like the work of a clever stay at home car thief,however,may in fact be the work of an even lazier and more inventive criminal mind-one that avoids not only collecting money but going out to steal the car in the first place.Police officer Chen says that the criminal probably has pulled a double trick:he gets money for things he cannot possibly return.Instead of stealing cars,he lets someone else do it and then waits for the car owner to place an ad in the newspaper asking for help. The theory is supported by the fact that,so far,none of the stolen cars have been returned.Also,the amount of money demanded-under 3,000 Taiwanese dollars-seems too little for a car worth many times more. Demands for pigeon-delivered money stopped as soon as the press reported the story.And even if they start again,Chen holds little hope of catching the criminal.“We have more important things to do,”he said.

A.went to a certain pigeon and put some money in the bag it carried

C.one of the policemen is Changwa
D.the owner of the pigeons
()13.The writer mentions the fact that“none of the stolen cars have been returned”to show.
A.how easily people get fooled by criminals
B.what Chen thinks might be correct
C.the thief is extremely clever
D.the money paid is too little
()14.The underlined word “they” in the last paragraph refers to.
