PartII Reading Comprehension (40%)
Passage 1
In Western countries people havebeen using the installment(分期付款)plan since the first half ofthe twentieth century. Today, a large number of families in Great Britain buyfurniture, household goods and cars
byinstallment. In the U.S. , the figure is much higher than in Great Britain, andpeople there spend over 10 percent of their income on the installment plan.
The price of an article bought oninstallment is always higher than the price that would be paid by cash. Thereis a charge for interest. The buyer pays one quarter or one third of the priceas a down payment(首期付款) when the goods are delivered tohim. He then makes regular payments, weekly or monthly, until the full piece ispaid up. The legal ownership of the goods remains with the seller until thefinal payment has been made.
Installment buyinghas advantages and disadvantages. It can help couples with small incomes tofurnish their homes and start housekeeping. It increases the demand for goods,and in this way helps business and employment. There is, however, the dangerthat when business is bad, installment buying may end suddenly, making businessmuch worse. This may result in a great increase in unemployment. If the peopleon the installment plan lose their jobs, they will probably not be able to maketheir payments. If great numbers of people are not able to pay theirinstallment debts there is a possibility that businessmen cannot collect theirdebts and will therefore lose money. If businessmen lose money or fail to makea satisfactory profit, it becomes more likely to have a depression. This iswhy, in some countries, the government controls the installment plan by fixingthe amount of the down payment and each of the following installments todiscourage people from buying more than they can pay for on the installmentplan.
36.Whichof the following is NOT true about the installment plan?
A. Alot of British families use the installment plan.
B. Morethan 10 percent American families buy things on installments.
C. Americansdepend more on installment than British people do.
D. Americansspend more than one tenth of their income on installment buying.
【答案】B

37.Goodsbought on installments are more expensive than goods bought by cash because______.
A. thebuyer has to pay extra money as interest
B. thedelivery of the goods charges extra money
C. thebuyer has to pay a down payment
D. theservice offered by installment plan is much better
【答案】A
【解析】第二段中“Thereis a charge for interest”的意思是“需要支付一个利息”,所以选项 A 符合:“买家必须支付额外的费用作为利息”。
38. What will happen to abuyer if he fails to make the full payment for an item bought on installment?
A.He might lose his job. B.He will not own the item he has bought.
C.He will have to sell what he has bought. D.He will go into debt.
【答案】B
【解析】第二段最后一句话“The legalownership…………”意思是“直到买家把所有的剩下的贷款还清才可以有商品
的所有权”,答案 B 的意思是如果买家没有把分期付款的贷款还清,他将不能再贷款了,故选 B
39.Theadvantage of installment buying might include all the following EXCEPT that______.
A. purchasingpower is strengthened
B. employmentmight be increased
C. peopledevelop a good habit of saving money
D. youngcouples are able to furnish their homes
【答案】C

B. increasepeople’s income
C. ensurethat businesses make good profits
D. ensurethat people can pay for what they buy
【答案】D

Passage 2
Publicity(宣传,报道)offersseveral benefits. There are no costs for message time or space. An ad in primetime television may cost $ 250,000 or mare per minute, whereas a five-minutereport on a network newscast would not cost anything. However, there are costsfor news releases (发布), a publicity department, and otheritems. As with advertising, publicity reaches a mass audience. Within a shorttime, new products or company policies are widely known.
Credibility(可信度)about messages is high, because they are reported in independent media. Anewspaper review of a movie has more believability than an ad in the samepaper, because the reader associates independence with objectivity. Similarly,people are more likely to pay attention to news reports than ads. Readers spendtime reading the stories, but they flip through (草草翻阅)the ads.Furthermore, there may be hundreds of ads in a magazine. Feature stories (专题报道)aremuch fewer in number and stand out clearly.
Publicityalso has some significant limitations. A firm has little control over messages,their timing, placement(报道顺序), or coverage. It may issue detailednews releases and find only small portions of them reported by the media; andmedia have the ability to be much more critical than a company would like. Afirm may want publicity during certain periods, such as when a new product isintroduced or new store opened, but the media may not cover the introduction oropening until after the time it would aid the firm. Similarly, media determinethe placement of a story; it may follow a report on crime or sports. Finally,the media ascertain(确定)whether to cover a story at all andthe amount of coverage to be devoted to it. A company-sponsored(赞助)jobprogram might go unreported or receive three-sentence coverage in a localnewspaper.
41.The author mentions all ofthe following advantages of publicity EXCEPT ______.
A.having no time costs B.having attentiveness
C.having high credibility D.having no space costs
【答案】B
【解析】题目问得是文中提到的报道的优点除了下列的哪个,B 是说报道有关注度,但是文中并没有提到,所以选 B

Passage 3
Theidea behind “ the rule of law ” is that it is laws based on logical reasons andclear thinking that should govern social life. “ We live under a rule of law,not of men. ” American teachers tell their students. The students accept theidea. They believe that “no man is above the law,” and that laws apply equallyto all people no matter how wealthy they are, what their personal connectionsare, or what their stations in life are. Their faith in the rule of lawexplains the belief many Americans held, and many foreigners could notunderstand, that President Richard Nixon should be removed from office as aresult of his behavior in connection with what was called“ Watergate Scandal (水门事件)”.Nixon had broken the law and therefore should be punished, Americans believed,even if he was the President.
The belief in therule of law goes beyond the area of politics to other areas of life that aregoverned by formal rules and procedures. To get a job with governmentinstitutions, for example, or to get government funding for a research project,one must follow published procedures and show that one meets the publishedrequirements. Personal connections are not supposed to matter under the rule oflaw.
Thisis not to say that personal contacts, wealth, and social influence do notmatter in situations where laws and rules are to be obeyed. They may.What is said above describes the ideal with which Americans agree. In reality,connections can sometimes help a person get a government job. Rich people cansometimes go unpunished for illegal behavior that poor people would be likelyto be punished for. But in general the rule of law prevails, and Americans areproud that it does.
46.The word “ stations” (Line 5, Para 1) is closest inmeaning to ______.

A. is notcarried out as fully as it should be
B. makespoor people also likely to be successful
C. is, inreality, almost impossible to realize
D. makessure that everyone is punished for his wrongdoing
【答案】A
【解析】根据文章第三段“Rich people………punishedfor”可以推断出 美国的法律实施起来并没有完全像它应该有的结
果那样好,所以选 A
49.The pronoun “ They ” inthe second line of the last paragraph refers to all of the following EXCEPT______.
A.personal connections B. laws andrules C. social influence D.wealth
【答案】B
【解析】本题和人物关系,社会影响(地位),财富有关,所以They 并不表示 B
50.The main idea of the last paragraph is ______.

Withcloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments forinfertility, in terms of percentages(百分比), are notvery successful. Couples go through physically and emotionally painfulprocedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of timeand money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make itpossible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before. Weshould be able to clone the bone marrow (骨髓) forchildren and adults suffering from leukemia (白血病). This isexpected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.
