Passage 1 Among all the changes resulting from the massive entry of women into the work force, the transformation that has occurred in the women themselves is not the least important. They see themselves in a new light, for they have discovered that they can do just as well as men in any profession. Some of them have gone to the top, which has given women pride and self-confidence. Of course, the picture is not perfect. In the first place, a very large number of women do not even try to enter “male” professions because they lack the necessary training or because they are not bold enough to take risks on new paths. For one woman executive or one woman judge, there are still countless typists and saleswomen who struggle through their day without any sense of victory. Besides, many of their braver sisters, who are daring to compete with men in higher fields, find that male opposition is still strong, and that society is still ready to explain a woman’s success by reasons that have nothing to do with her intelligence. Still, the fact remains that women are now free to enter any career that attracts them; the situation has improved, and the tide is not likely to turn back.
31. The changes in the women have been brought about by ________. A. Women’s participation in work.
B. some women who participate in important work. C. men’s encouragement D. lack of labor force
32. According to the author, “the picture is not perfect” because _________. A. a large number of women do not dare to compete with men in higher fields. B. men offer strong opposition
C. society looks down upon women D All of the above.
33. Only a small number of women have entered “male” professions because ________. A. most women are content with less important work. B. many women lack courage or necessary training C. women are generally not as able as men
D. most women cannot free themselves from housework. 34. How does society view a woman’s success in her career? A. It proves that women are as intelligent as men.
B. It has resulted from reasons other than her intelligence. C. Women are beginning to see themselves in a new light.
D. Women should be encouraged to take up more jobs in higher fields.

Passage 2
The school obviously plays an important part in your education. But what part? Is it just a place—a place where you go to read your textbooks, to write, to hear people talking with you? Is it just an institution—an institution which is approved by the Government, which pays the salaries of your teachers, which issues periodic reports on you to your parents, which rewards you, which punishes you, which gives you an official grading for your year’s work?
It is, certainly, both these things—a place and an institution. But it is neither as a place nor as an institution that the school contributes most to your education. It is as a gathering of people that the schools of greatest value to your educationally.
It is people who bring a building to life, and people who determine the success or failure of an institution. So it is people who must rate highest in your assessment of the educational value of your school.
There are lots of arguments about what education really is. But someone perceptive（有察觉力的） once said that “education is what’s left over when you have forgotten all that you’ve learned.” Education does not consist in remembering a particular theorem（定理） or date or definition or formula. It does not consist in getting a couple of credits and distinctions in the public exam at the end of the year. It does not consist in doing school work that enables you to join a particular social class later on. All these things are the by-products of education.
Genuine education is deeper: it is more a part of yourself. It gives you certain attitude which are more permanent than selected facts. It gives you a training in reasoning. It gives you mental self-restraint: you get into the habit of looking at both sides of the question before coming to a decision. It gives you a respect for truth. It gives you a respect for people. 36. According to the writer, the school is of greatest value to us educationally as ____. A. a place for us to have lessons and read books B. an institution to issue periodic reports to our parents C. an institution to assess our school work D. a gathering of people
37. People must be considered as the most important factor when we assess the educational value of the school, because it is people who ________.
A. build the school B. live in the school
C. determined the success or failure of the school D. will leave us a deep impression
38. According to the writer, real education _____________. A. helps students to get distinctions in exams
B. continually assesses a student’s work throughout the academic year C. pays no attention to official grading for a student’s work D. does not concentrate on the learning of facts
39. According to the passage, teachers who want to give their students a true education will probably ______. A. not prepare their students for passing examination B. ask students to do more school work
C. encourage students to make contact with the other people in the school D. feel satisfied when students get credits for their work

Remembering theorems or definitions is only a by-product of education. C. Today people have the same opinion on education. D. Education is what can be easily forgotten. Passage 3
Sleeping pills depress the brain and students who take them are less fit for study, or other work, or for driving a car, on the next day, than they would otherwise be.

If you are fresh and free from worry, and have regular sleeping habits, you should not need sleeping pills.

If you seem to take a long time in going to sleep, try to relax so that you can at least benefit from the rest. Let all your muscles relax. Some experts suggest that it is best to think only about relaxing. Alternatively to take your thoughts away from any current worry, you may prefer to recollect some pleasant experience. Pop pills stimulate the brain and some people take them to overcome a felling of tiredness, when they should be trying to relax and go to sleep. It is unwise to take pep pills, when you have already studied for long enough, to help you to stay awake and work longer. Extreme physical tiredness and mental depression may be felt when the effects of the pills wear off, so that they have the opposite to the intended effect. There may then be a temptation to take more pep pills to help overcome the feeling of exhaustion resulting from the previous dose. This is a vicious circle. It is best to plan your week so that you are wide awake all day and ready to sleep at bed-time. 41. Sleeping pills ______.
A. can help you get enough relaxation
B. are only fit for adults but not for children C. may help free you from any worry

A. to take sleeping pills before going to bed B. to avoid taking any sleeping pills

B. the students take pep pills only when they have studied for a long time C. extreme physical tiredness may be felt if pep pills are taken
D. it is better to take pep pills than sleeping pills before going to bed Passage 4
The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this .means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads, and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them. One of the difficulties in carrying out a world-wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline. 46. A small population may mean _____.
