第三部分 閱讀理解（共15小題 ，每小題2分；滿分30分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A,B,C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
I don’t ever want to talk about being a woman scientist again. There was a time in my life when people asked constantly for stories about what it’s like to work in a field controlled by men. I was never very good at telling those stories because truthfully I never found them interesting. What I do find interesting is the origin of the universe, the shape of space-time and the nature of black holes.
At 19, when I began studying astrophysics, it did not bother me in the least to be the only woman in the classroom. But while earning my Ph.D．a(chǎn)t MIT and then as a post-doctor doing space research, the issue started to bother me. My every achievement―jobs, research papers, awards―was viewed through the lens(透鏡) of gender (性別) politics. So were my failures. Sometimes, when I was pushed into an argument on left brain versus right brain, or nature versus nurture (培育), I would instantly fight fiercely on my behalf and all womankind.
Then one day a few years ago, out of my mouth came a sentence that would eventually become my reply to any and all provocations(挑釁): I don’t talk about that anymore. It took me 10 years to get back the confidence I had at 19 and to realize that I didn’t want to deal with gender issues. Why should gender discrimination be yet another terrible burden on every female scientist? After all, I don’t study sociology or political theory.
Today I research and teach at Barnard, a women’s college in
56．Why doesn’t the author want to talk about being a woman scientist again?
A．She feels unhappy working in male-dominated fields.
B．She is fed up with the issue of gender discrimination.
C．She is not good at telling stories of the kind.
D．She finds space research more important.
57．From Paragraph 2, we can infer that people would think ______ leads to the author’s failures ________.
A．the very fact that she is a woman
B．her involvement in gender politics
C．her over-confidence as a female astrophysicist
D．the burden she bears in a male-dominated society
58．What did the author constantly fight against while doing her Ph.D．a(chǎn)nd post-doctoral research?
A．Lack of confidence in succeeding in space science.
B．Unfair accusations from both inside and outside her circle.
C．People’s stereotyped(已成成規(guī)的） attitude toward female scientists.
D．Widespread misunderstanding about nature and nurtured.
59．What does the image the author presents to her students suggest?
A．Women students needn’t have the concerns of her generation.
B．Women have more barriers on their way to academic success.
C．Women can balance a career in science and having a family.
D．Women now have fewer problems seeking a science career.

Life gets noisier every day and very few people can be free from noise of some sort or another. It doesn’t matter where you live --- in the middle of a modern city, or a faraway village --- the chances are that you’11 be disturbed by jet planes, transistor radios, oil-powered engines, etc. We seem to be getting used to noise, too. Some people feel quite lonely without background music while they’re working.
Scientific tests have shown that total silence can be a very frightening experience for a human being. However, some people enjoy listening to pop music which is very loud, and this can do harm to their eardrums (耳鼓). The noise level in some discos is far above the usual safety level for heavy industrial areas.
One recent report about noise and concentration (專心) suggested that although a lot of people say that any noise disturbs their concentration, what really influences their ability to concentrate is a change in the level of noise. It goes on to say that a background noise which doesn’t change too much (music, for example) may even help people to concentrate.
60. What does background music refer to?
A. Music played while people are working.
B. Music played in the backyard.
C. Noise that continues while you’re listening to other noises.
D. Music used to help people to concentrate.
61. Some people have their hearing harmed _____.
A. while listening to pop music B. in complete silence
C. when speaking loudly D. while watching TV
62. Which of the following isn’t included among the things causing noise?
A. trucks B. motorcycles C. electric engines D. jet planes
63. Scientists have discovered that what prevents people from concentrating on something is _____
A. all kinds of noise B. great changes in the level of noise
C. background noise D. popular music

You’re out to dinner. The food is delicious and the service is fine. You decide to leave a big fat tip. Why? The answer may not be as simple as you think.
Tipping, psychologists have found, is not just about service. Instead, studies have shown that tipping can be affected by psychological reactions to a series of different factors from the waiter’s choice of words to how they carry themselves while taking orders to the bill’s total.
“Studies before have shown that mimicry (模仿) brings into positive feelings for the mimicker,” wrote Rick van Baaren, a social psychology professor. “These studies show that people who are being mimicked become more generous toward the person who mimics them.”
So Rick van Baaren divided 59 waiters into two groups. He requested that half serve with a phrase such as, “Coming up!” Those in the other half were instructed to repeat the orders and preferences back to the customers. Rick van Baaren then compared their take-home. The results were clear-it pays to mimic your customer. The copycat waiters earned almost double the amount of tips to the other group.
Leonard Green and Joel Myerson, psychologists at
“That’s also a point of tipping,” Green says. “You have to give a little extra to the cab driver for being there to pick you up and something to the waiter for being there to serve you. If they weren’t there you’d never get any service. So part of the idea of a tip is for just being there.”
64. How many factors affecting the customers’ tipping are mentioned in the passage?
A. 2. B. 1. C. 3. D. 4.
65. According to the passage, which of the following will be likely to show the right change of the tip percentages?

66. According to the passage, we know the writer seems to _________.
A. oppose Mr. Green’s idea about tipping
B. think part of Mr. Green’s explanation is reasonable
C. give his generous tip to the waiters very often
D. support the opinions of Mr. Green and Rick van Baaren about tipping
D
It’s a case of the grass not being any greener on the other side. Nearly 60 percent of Australian workers are not happy with their employers, but almost 50 percent remain because they believe there are not many ideal companies around, a survey released recently shows.
The report by career networking site LinkMe.com.au found that after taking into account working hours, staff morale(員工士氣), industry, wages, image, charity support and career progression, the 2000 people surveyed predominantly(絕大多數(shù)地) believed their company did not quite make the grade.
Just over 25 percent of respondents claimed their company's record regarding staff morale was extremely awful, 30 percent said their working hours were too long and inflexible, 59 percent reported that their offices were shoddy and poorly-equipped, and 32 percent said their wages were far too low.
"Employers must realize that the Australian workplace is an environment of low unemployment so they need to provide better working environments or risk losing staff," CEO of LinkMe.com.au Campbell Sallabank said．
Those that are considered to be respectable and glamorous firms with great working conditions are few and far between.
Only 17 percent said they believe they worked for an ideal company, while 33 percent said the competition was tough to get into those types of firms.
Predominantly, staff morale (75 percent), wages (68 percent) and distances between houses and companies (54 percent) are the factors considered when determining the ideal companies.
"Workers should not hold back from trying to improve their office environment," Mr Sallabank said．
"There are all sorts of ways where employees can be successful in obtaining this but if attempts continually fall on deaf ears then voting with your feet is the best way to improve the situation as there are plenty of good employers out there."
67．According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT right?
A．The minorities of employees consider they are working for ideal firms.
B．Some respectable and glamorous firms provide unsatisfactory working conditions.
C．There are few chances for employees to find their satisfactory employers.
D．Employees complain about the low staff morale and wages, and the long working hours.
68．What does the underlined phrase “voting with your feet” mean?
A．The way of disabled people to show their disagreement.
B．Having your own rights to express your belief.
C．Showing that you do not support a decision by leaving the company.
D．A kind of body language to demonstrate your satisfaction.
69．Which of the following can we infer from the passage?
A．Owing
to low unemployment in
B．The employees take three key factors---staff morale, wages, and distances between houses and companies---into consideration when choosing the ideal companies.
C．The
government of
D．Nearly 60 percent of Australian employers are not happy with their employees.
70．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A．Australian workers demand better working conditions.
B．Sick of your job? Why can’t you leave?
C．The grass is not any greener on the other side.
D．A survey of Australian workers.

With the development of the national economy and the growth of population, the city size grows larger and larger, which brings about both benefits and disadvantages. As a result of the city expansion, local people are enjoying the convenience of commercial business and their residential conditions have also improved. More financial investment will pour into the area as well.
On the other hand, some destruction of farmland is unavoidable when a city expands. Besides forms of pollution done to the land, wildlife, including both plants and animals, is put at risk.
All these ought to be considered. In my opinion, tearing down unusable buildings can spare many areas inside the city, so it's unnecessary to expand outside. As for the government, careful planning should be done to maintain the natural beauty while at the same time allowing for growth.
