第3页 共 8页
ONE error. In each case, only ONE word is involved. You should proofread the passage and correct it.
Please write your answers on the Answer Sheet.
Many witnesses concerning the Chinese have told the truth, but perhaps
a few of them have succeeded in telling nothing but the truth, and no one of (21)
them has ever told the whole truth. No single individual, whatever the extent
of his knowledge, could by any possible know the whole truth about the (22)
Chinese.
The difficulty of comparing Chinese with Anglo-Saxons will be more (23)
strongly felt by those who have attempted. To such it will soon become (24)
evident that many things which seem “characteristic” of the Chinese are
merely Oriental traits; but in what extent this is true, each reader in the (25)
light of his own experience must judge by himself. (26)
It has been said that in the present stage of our intercourse with Chinese
there are three ways in which we can come to some knowledge of their
social life—by the study of their novels, their ballads, and their plays. Each
of these sources of information doubtless have its worth, but there is likewise (27)
a fourth, more valuable than all of them combining, a source not open to every (28)
one who wrote on China and the Chinese. It is the study of the family life of (29)
the Chinese in their own homes. As the topography of a district can be much
better understood in the country than the city, so it is with the characteristics (30)
of the people. A foreigner may live in a Chinese city for a decade, and not gain
as much knowledge of the interior life of the people as he can acquire by living
twelve months in a Chinese village.
Part II. Reading Comprehension (50 %)
Section A (30 %)
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or
unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D).You should decide
on the best choice and write your answers on the Answer Sheet.
Passage One
Questions 31 to 39 are based on the following passage.
My Views on Gambling
Most of life is a gamble. Very many of the things we do involve taking some risk in order to achieve a
satisfactory result. We undertake a new job with no idea of the more indirect consequences of our action.
Marriage is certainly a gamble and so is the bringing into existence of children, who could prove sad
liabilities. A journey, a business transaction, even a chance remark may result immediately or ultimately in
tragedy. Perpetually we gamble—against life, destiny, chance, the unknown—call the invisible opponent
what we will. Human survival and progress indicate that usually we win.
So the gambling instinct must be an elemental one. Taking risks achieve something is a characteristic
of all form of life, including humanity. As soon as man acquired property, the challenge he habitually issued
to destiny found an additional expression in a human contest. Early may well have staked his flint axe, his
bearskin, his wife, in the hope of adding to his possessions. The acquirement of desirable but non-essential
commodities must have increased his scope enormously, while the risk of complete disaster lessened.
