从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选项中选出一个最佳答案，并写在答题纸相应的位置上。
Passage One
Questions 21 to 23 are based on the following passage.
If you are like most people,your intelligence varies from season to season.You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year.A noted scientist,Ellsworth Huntington(1876-1947),concluded from other men's work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on your mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favourable for creative thinking than is summer heat.This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year.It does mean,however,that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking.One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next-best season,then winter.As for summer,it seems to be good time to take a long vacation from thinking!
21.Huntington decided that climate and temperature have _____.
A.a great effect on everybody's intelligence
B.no effect on most people's intelligence
C.certain effect on most people's intelligence
D.a little effect on few people's intelligence
22.One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that____.
A.all nature,including man, is growing then
B.it lasts longer than the other seasons
C.it has longer daytime than winter
D.it is the most comfortable season
23.According to the passage, the time when people's intelligence drops to its lowest point is _____.
A.spring B.summer C.autumn D.winter
Passage Two
Questions 24 to 26 are based on the following passage.
The faces of elderly,happily——married people sometimes resemble each other.Dr.Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty——fiveyears.Each couple provided four photographs-one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty——five or more years later.All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues.The photos were then displayed in groups:a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later.Some judges were asked to pick out the partners.They failed totally with the first group.Their judgements were no better than chance.But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage,the judges were quite successful at deciding who was married to whom.They were particularly successful with the most happily-married couples.
Dr.Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike.One reason has something to do with imitation.One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it.He says human begins imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones.Another possible reason,he says,is the common experience of the couples.There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways.For example,if a couple suffered from a lot of sad experiences,their faces are likely to change in a similar way.
24.The main purpose of the passage is to _____.
A.tell how couples like each other
B.show the life experience of husband and wife
C.explain why couples grow alike
D.describe the study on a number of married people
25.The judges failed to _____.
A.tell couples by looking at their photos taken when they got married
B.distinguish happily——married couples from sadly——married couples
C.discvoer the difference of each partner
D.understand Dr.Aiken's study
26.From the passage we can draw a conclusion that _____.
A.happily——married couples are often richer than other couples
B.couples who look alike can live logner
C.the influence between couples can be quite strong
D.all couples have been proved to grow alike
Passage Three
Questions 27 to 30 are based on the following passage.
The British people are great readers of newspapers.There are few homes to which one newspaper is not delivered every morning.Many households have two,or even three,newspapers every day.One newspaper may be delivered at the house,a member of the family may buy one at the station bookstall to read in the train as he goes to town,and someone else in the family may buy an evening newspaper later in the day.
Daily papers are those that are published daily from Monday to Saturday.There are the morning papers and the evening papers.The morning papers are on sale in the morning.The evening papers begin to appear during the morning,and new editions appear every two or three hours until the final edition comes out in the evening.
The London newspaper that is best known outside Great Britain in probably The Times.It began in 1785,and has a high reputation for reliable news and serious comment on the news.It calls itself an independent paper,which means that it does not give its support to a particular political party.Its leading articles give the opinions of its editorial staff,not those of the owners of the paper.
The Daily Express and the Daily Mail are also independent,though they are usually more sympathetic to Conservative than to socialist policies.The Daily Telegraph, also a serious paper with a high reputation,is not independent.It supports the Conservative Party.
Two popular papers are Daily Mirror and the Daily Sketch.These have many pages of photographs and numerous strip cartoons(漫画).Their makeup is more exciting than that of the serious papers.The news that appears in their pages is not always the most important news:it is the news that is most interesting to the man in the street.
