題目列表(包括答案和解析)

If you go to Finland, you will likely be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.

    The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals．The most they would do to show their good faith (信任) is to wave their registration (登記) card to the waiter.With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.

       The Finnish workers are paid by the hour.They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate.From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.

       With so many loopholes (漏洞)in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms.And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.

       In a society of such high moral(道德的)practice, what need is there for people to be on guard (警惕)against others ?

56. While taking a taxi in Finland, a passenger __________.

       A. can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to go

       B. only pays two US dollars for a taxi ride

    C. can go anywhere without having to pay the driver

       D. needs to provide good faith demonstration(證明) before leaving without paying

57. We can know from the passage that in Finland __________.

       A. both hotel guests and outside diners are served food free of charge

       B. big hotels are mostly poorly managed

       C. guests can enjoy free food once they stayed in the hotel

    D. big hotels provide meals for all kinds of diners

58. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

       A. Generally speaking, in Finland, workers can get more pay by working long hours.

       B. The bosses are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.

       C. The workers are always honest with their working hours.

       D. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.

59. It can be concluded that _________.

       A. Finnish people are really foolish in daily life

       B. Finland has been a good place for cheats

    C. all the Finns are rich and therefore honest

    D. the Finnish society is of very high moral level

閱讀理解

　　The days of the hunter are almost over in India．This is partly because there is practically nothing left to kill, and partly because some steps have been taken mainly by banning tiger-shooting to protect those animals which still survive．

　　Some people say that Man is naturally a hunter．I disagree with this view．Surely our earliest forefathers, who at first possessed no weapons, spent their time digging for roots, and were no doubt themselves often hunted by meat-eating animals．

　　I believe the main reason why the modern hunter kills is that he thinks people will admire his courage in overpowering dangerous animals．Of course, there are some who truly believe that the killing is not really the important thing, and that the chief pleasure lies in the joy of the hunt and the beauty of the wild countryside．There are also those for whom hunting in fact offers a chance to prove themselves and risk death by design; these men go out after dangerous animals like tigers, even if they say they only do it to rid the countryside of a threat．I can respect reasons like these, but they are clearly different from the need to strengthen your high opinion of yourself．

　　The greatest big-game hunters expressed in their writings something of these finer motives．One of them wrote：

　　“You must properly respect what you are after and shoot it clearly and on the animal’s own territory(領(lǐng)地)．You must fix forever in your mind all the wonders of that particular day．This is better than letting him grow a few years older to be attacked and wounded by his own son and eventually eaten, half alive, by other animals．Hunting is not a cruel and senseless killing－not if you respect the thing you kill, not if you kill to enrich your memories, not if you kill to feed your people．”

　　I can understand such beliefs, and can compare these hunters with those who hunted lions with spears and bravely caught them by the tail．But this is very different from many tiger-shoots I have seen, in which modern weapons were used．The so-called hunters fired from tall trees or from the backs of trained elephants．Such methods made tigers seem no more dangerous than rabbits．

(1)
