　　Anthropology(人类学) is a science which deals with man and his social habits. I think of anthropology here as “being interested, without 36 , in the way other people choose to live and 37 .”

　　When you are curious about the way someone behaves or the way 38 feel about something, it’s 39 that you will be annoyed(恼火).

　　When someone acts in a way that seems 40 to you, rather than react in your usual way, such as “I can’t believe they would do that,” 41 say something to yourself like “I see, that must be the way they 42 things in their world. Very interesting.” In order for this 43 to help you, you have to be genuine(真诚的).

　　Recently I was at a shopping mall with my six-year- old daughter 44 　a group of punk rockers walked by with orange hair and tattoos(文身) covering much of their bodies. At the sight of them, my daughter immediately asked me, “Daddy, why are they 45 like that?” Years ago I would have felt very 46 with such young people. I would have given a judgmental explanation and passed along to her my 47 . Pretending to be an anthropologist, however, has 48 my perspective(看法) a great deal, so it’s made me 49 . I said to my daughter, “I’m not really sure, but it’s interesting how 50 we all are, isn’t it?” She said, “Yeah, 51 I like my own hair.”

　　When you are interested in other perspectives, it doesn’t mean you’re 52 　them. I certainly wouldn’t choose a punk rock lifestyle or 53 it to anyone else. At the same time, however, it’s really not my 54 to judge it either. One of the most important rules of joyful living is that judging others takes a great deal of energy and 55 you away from where you want to be.

　　36. A. agreement　 B. judgment

　　C. improvement　 D. encouragement

　　37. A. behave B. speak C. growD. eat

　　38. A. you　 B. they　 C. I　D. we

　　39. A. natural B. certain

　　C. obvious D. impossible

　　40. A. normal B. common

　　C. strange D. passive

　　41. A. just 　 B. also　 C. still D. never

　　42. A. make　 B. find　 C. see　 D. get

　　43. A. person B. way　 C. interest D. word

　　44. A. while　 B. until C. since　 D. when

　　45. A. tried on B. grown up

　　C. acted out 　 　D. dressed up

　　46. A. pleased B. interested C. bored　D. excited

　　47. A. views　 B. questions C. adviceD. plan

　　48. A. blocked B. changed　

　　C. enlarged D. raised

　　49. A. softer　 B. higher

　　C. happier　 D. angrier

　　第三部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)

　　阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

　　A

　　The private automobile(私家车) has long played an important role in the United States. In fact, it has become a necessary and important part of the American way of life. In 1986, sixty-nine percent of American families owned at least one car, and thirty-eight percent had more than one. By giving workers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their place of work. This has encouraged the growth of the cities, but it has also led to traffic problems.

　　For farm families the automobile is very helpful. It has made it possible for them to travel to town very often for business and for pleasure, and also to transport their children to distant schools.

　　Family life has been affected in various ways. The car helps to keep families together when it is used for picnics, outings, and other shared experiences. However, when teenage children have the use of the car, their parents can’t keep an eye on them. There is a great danger if the driver has been drinking alcohol or taking drugs, or showing off by speeding or breaking down traffic laws. Mothers of victims(受害者) of such accidents have formed an organization called MADD (Mothers Against Drink Driving). These women want to prevent further tragedies(悲剧). They have worked to encourage the government to limit the youngest drinking age. Students have formed a similar organization, SADD(Students Against Drink Driving)and are spreading the same message among their friends.

　　For many Americans the automobile is a necessity. But for some, it is also a mark of social position and for young people, a sign of becoming an adult. Altogether, cars mean very much to Americans.

　　56. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the text?

　　A. Cars have encouraged the growth of the cities.

　　B. Cars can bring families together when they go for picnics.

　　C. Cars have enabled people to live far from their places of work.

　　D. Cars help city families to transport their children to faraway schools.

　　57. What has been done to deal with the problem of drink-driving?

　　A. Parents have paid more attention to their children.

　　B. Some organizations have been set up against drink-driving.

　　C. Mothers have tried to persuade their children not to drink alcohol.

　　D. University students have asked the government to solve the problem.

　　58. We can infer from the text that in America ________.

　　A. it will be more difficult for people to get new cars

　　B. parents will not allow their children to have their own cars

　　C. the government will encourage people to use public transportation

　　D. cars will still be popular though they have caused many problems

　　B

　　Everyone chases success, but not all of us want to be famous.

　　South African writer John Maxwell Coetzee is well-known for keeping to himself. When the 63-year-old was named the 2003 Nobel Prize winner for literature, reporters were warned that they would find him “particularly difficult to catch.”

　　Coetzee lives in Australia but spends part of the year teaching at the University of Chicago. He seemed shocked by the news that he won the US＄1.3 million prize. “I wasn’t even aware they were due to make the announcement,” he said.

　　His love of privacy leads to doubts as to whether Coetzee will attend the prize-giving in Stockholm, Sweden, on December 10.

　　But despite being described as difficult to track down, the critics agree that his writing is easy to get to know.

　　Born in Cape Town, South Africa, to an English-speaking family, Coetzee made his breakthrough in 1980 with the novel “Waiting for the Barbarians”. He took his place among the world’s leading writers with two Booker prize victories, Britain’s highest honour for novels. He first won in 1983 for the “Life and Times of Michael K”, and this second title came in 1999 for “Disgrace.”

　　A major theme in his work is South Africa’s former apartheid(种族隔离) system, which divided whites from blacks. Dealing with the problems of violence, crime and racial division that still exist in the country, his books have enabled ordinary people to understand apartheid from within.

　　“I have always been more interested in the past than the future,” he said in a rare interview. “The past casts its shadow over the present. I hope I have made one or two people think twice about whether they want to forget the past completely.”

　　In fact this purity in his writing seems to be mirrored in his personal life. Coetzee is a vegetarian, a cyclist rather than a motorist and doesn’t drink alcohol.

　　But what he has contributed to literature, culture and the people of South Africa is far greater than the things he has given up. “In looking at weakness and failure in life,” the Nobel Prize judging panel said, “Coetzee’s work expresses the divine spark(闪光点) in man.”

　　59. When the news came that he won the 2003 Nobel Prize for literature, Coetzee was ________.

　　A. excited B. surprised C. frightened D. satisfied

　　60. People wonder if he will come to the prize-giving in December because ________.

　　A. he is particularly difficult to find

　　B. he lives in Australia not in South Africa

　　C. he is busy teaching at the University of Chicago

　　D. he likes to be left in peace without being bothered

　　61. When reading his works, people may find ________.

　　A. he became famous for the novel “Waiting for the Barbarians”

　　B. he won British highest honour for novels

　　C. racial division exists in South Africa

　　D. he wanted to forget the past completely

　　62. John Maxwell Coetzee is a person who ________.

　　A. prefers riding a bike to driving a car

　　B. likes eating meat very much

　　C. ever drinks wine

　　D. often accepts interviews

　　C

　　Rome had the Forum. London has Speaker’s Corner. Now always-on-the-go New Yorkers have Liz and Bill.

　　Liz and Bill, two college graduates in their early 20s, have spent a whole year trying to have thousands of people talk to them in subway stations and on busy street corners. Just talk.

　　Using a 2-foot-tall sign that says, “Talk to Me,” they attract conversationalists, who one evening included a mental patient, and men in business suits.

　　They don’t collect money. They don’t push religion(宗教). So what’s the point?

　　“To see what happens,” said Liz. “We simply enjoy life with open communication.”

　　Shortly after the September 11, 2001 attacks, they decided to walk from New York City to Washington, a 270-mile trip. They found they loved talking to people along the way and wanted to continue talking with strangers after their return.

　　“It started as a crazy idea,” Liz said. “We were so curious about all the strangers walking by with their life stories. People will talk to us about anything: their jobs, their clothes, their childhood experiences, anything.”

　　Denise wanted to talk about an exam she was about to take. She had stopped by for the second time in two days, to let the two listeners know how it went.

　　Marcia had lost her husband to a serious disease. “That was very heavy on my mind,” Marcia said. “To be able to talk about it to total strangers was very good,” she explained.

　　To celebrate a year of talking, the two held a get-together in a city park for all the people they had met over the past year. A few hundred people showed up, as well as some television cameramen and reporters.

　　They may plan more parties or try to attract more people to join their informal talks. Some publishers have expressed interest in a book, something they say they’ll consider.

　　Dr Kimsma, from the Netherlands, believes that euthanasia(安乐死) is not simply a question of ending someone’s life. The important thing is how that person’s life ends. If someone chooses euthanasia, he doesn’t have to think about the worry, and the suffering. He can also focus on the things he really wants to do, such as taking a last trip, or making up a fight with someone in the family, or saying goodbye. The pressure on that person becomes lighter when he knows he won’t have to go on suffering long. Often, people who have chosen euthanasia have such peace of mind that they die naturally. “If I ended the life of a patient because I had not given him good care, I would feel ashamed and guilty,” he said.

　　Dr Kimsma admits that in the case of euthanasia there is a conflict(冲突) between his goals as a doctor: saving life and helping those who are suffering. He believes that helping people is the morally right thing to do. “My patient can be sure that I will not let them suffer unnecessarily alone. That is just my goal and duty as a doctor.” He says he can only continue to perform euthanasia because it is something that happens very rarely.

　　Dr Ravenscroft, a medical professor in Australia, holds that euthanasia is wrong. He believes that when people have an incurable illness, they should be given care that lessens their pain and suffering and helps them to feel less afraid. He says that such care should improve the quality of a person’s life, even in the very last part of his life, without bringing death. Dr Ravenscroft suggests that a patient should be given a drug to help him sleep for the last few days of his life, if nothing else will help him.

　　Ravenscroft says, “ Life is a great mystery. We take part in all of life including dying, but we are not masters of it.”

　　Besides, if euthanasia is lawful, it may be easier to choose death instead of continuing to look for a better treatment. He fears that people can be persuaded to choose euthanasia when they do not really want to.

　　72. Which of the following is NOT Dr Kimsma’s opinion?

　　A. People may die peacefully in euthanasia because

　　they feel less pressure.

　　B. Euthanasia allows people to focus on important

　　personal things in the last part of their lives.

　　C. It is wrong to give up looking for a better treatment

　　for an incurable disease.

　　D. It is wrong to let a patient suffer when the disease is beyond cure.

　　73. According to Dr Kimsma, when the two goals of a doctor conflict, ________.

　　A. saving life should come first.

　　B. helping people who are suffering should come first.

　　C. it is up to his patient to make a decision.

　　D. the solution varies according to the situation.

　　74. Dr Ravenscroft is against euthanasia. One of his reasons is that ________.

　　A. nobody really wants to end his own life

　　B. saving life is the only goal for a doctor

　　C. care given to people having incurable diseases can make them live longer

　　D. patient can be given painkillers and drugs to make them suffer less

　　75. By “we are not masters of it”, Dr Ravenscroft means

　　________.

　　A. we have no right to end a person’s life

　　B. we can never tell what will happen to us

　　C. life is as mysterious as death

　　D. life is always beyond our knowledge
