Is there something as truth？ For a good many centuries "the search for truth" has been (31) the noblest activity of the human mind, but the seekers after truth have come to such (32) conclusions that it often seems that very little progress has been made. (33) , there are many people who reel that we are actually going backward. They (34) , often contemptuously, that we have accumulated more "knowledge" than our ancestors, but they think we are farther from the truth than ever, or even that we have (35) the truth that we once possessed. If people look for anything long enough without finding it, the question naturally arises (36) the thing is really there to find. You have seen a picture of an animal with a lion's head, a goat's body, and a serpent's tail--and maybe an eagle's wings for good (37) There is plenty of evidence that each part of this animal (38) --but there is no (39) evidence that the parts ever occur in this combination. It is at least conceivable that the seekers after "truth" have made a similar mistake and invented an (40) combination.A.regardedB.consideredC.ponderedD.referred

听力原文： There seems never to have been a civilization without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do.
In the ancient world, as today, most boys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with some other. In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world.
What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same. The changes have been mostly in terms of craftsmanship, mechanics, and technology. It is the universality of toys with regard to their development in all part of the world and their persistence to the present that is amazing. In Egypt, America, China, Japan, and even among the Arctic peoples, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Variations depended on local customs and ways of life because toys imitate their surroundings. Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.
(4)
A．Because boys and girls are being prepared for different social roles.
B．Because boys are more courageous.
C．Because toy makers want to diversify their products.
D．Because parents have different expectations for boys and girls.

There has been, in history, a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived to tell the tale. The man&39;s name is James Bartley. The records to prove his unusual experience are in the British Admiralty.
Bartley was making his first trip on the whaling ship Star of the East. Suddenly the lookout sighted a huge sperm whale. The whalers knew it was a huge whale by the size of the spray it blew into the air. They lowered their small boats. James Bartley was in the first longboat. The men rowed until they were close to the whale. A harpoon was thrown and it found its mark. It sank into the whale&39;s flesh. The maddened beast crashed into the boat, snapping its tail at the men and the wreckage of their boats. When the survivors were picked up, James Bartley was missing.
Shortly before sunset, the whale was finally captured. The sailors tied the whale&39;s dead body to the side of the ship. Because of the hot weather it was important that they cut up the whale right away. Otherwise, the meat would begin to rot and oil would begin to spoil. When they got to the stomach, they felt something moving about wildly. They thought it would be a big fish still alive inside. But when they opened the stomach they found James Bartley. After this trip, Bartley settled in England, and never returned to sea.

At the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear accident, there was a very large release of radioactivity in a few minutes, followed by a slowly declining release rate over several months. The total release is estimated to have been about 5×10<sup>7</sup>curies The winds carried the released materials all the way to Sweden, from which the first reports came that there had been a nuclear accident in the USSR.
For the purposes of this problem assume that there was an instantaneous release of 10<sup>7</sup>curies of radioactive gases (and fine particles, which are assumed to remain in the atmosphere and not settle out). Then estimate the maximum ground level concentration of radioactive gases (curies/m<sup>3</sup>) when the radioactive cloud from the accident got to Sweden. Make the following assumptions:
(1) Ignore decay of the radioactive gases (i.e., assume their half-lives were infinite).
(2) Assume the distance between Chernobyl and Sweden is 1000 km.
(3) Assume that the wind speed was 3 m/s and the stability class C.
(4) Assume that the mixing height was 2000 m.
(5) Assume that mlXmg in the x direction(up and down the direction of the wind) has the same intensity as miXing in the y(crosswind)direction.

Crime is a very serious problem in Britain. One sort of crime which particularly worries people is juvenile delinquency—that is, crimes committed by young people. For some years juvenile delinquency had been increasing. There are two main sorts of juvenile crimes: stealing and violence. Most people do not understand why young people commit these crimes. There are, I think, a large number of different reasons.
These crimes are not usually committed by people who are poor or in need. Young people often dislike and hate the adult world. They will do things to show that they are rebels. Also in Britain today it is easier for young people to commit crimes because they have more freedom to go where they like and more money to do what they like.
There are two other possible causes which are worth mentioning. More and more people in Britain live in large towns. In a large town no one knows who anyone else is or where they live. But in the village I come from crimes are rare because everyone knows everyone else.
Although it is difficult to explain, I think the last cause is very important. Perhaps there is something with our society which encourages violence and crime. It is a fact that all the time children are exposed to films and reports about crime and violence. Many people do not agree that this influences the young people, but I think that young people are very much influenced by the society they grow in. I feel that the fault may be as much with our whole society as with these young people.
6. From the passage we know that many British people are confused about ().
A. the cause of juvenile crimes
B. the rise of the crime rate
C. the problem of crimes in their country
D. the various kinds of juvenile delinquency
7. One reason why young people in large cities are more likely to commit crimes is that ().
A. nobody knows anything about others
B. they are free to move
C. they live a better life
D. they need more money
8. According to the passage, which groups of the following young people are LEAST likely to commit crimes？
A. Those living in big cities
B. Those who are in need of help
C. Those who are very poor
D. Those living in the countryside
9. Unlike many others, the author holds that one important cause for juvenile delinquency is that().
A. young people nowadays do not like adult world
B. young people in Britain today are freer than before
C. too many young people have come to live in big cities
D. young people are influenced by crime and violence in films and newspapers
10.According to the passage, which is to blame for juvenile crimes, apart from the young people themselves？
A. The adult world
B. Their parents
C. The development of the cities
D. The society
