[b]Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)[b]Passage One[b]Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.[b]It was the worst tragedy in maritime (航海的) history, six [b]times more deadly than [b][b]the Titanic.[b]When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by [b]torpedoes (鱼雷) fired from a [b][b]Russian submarine in the final winter of World War II, more than [b]10,000 people - mostly [b][b]women, children and old people fleeing the final Red Army push into [b]Nazi Germany - were [b][b]packed aboard. An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets [b]that sent hundreds of [b][b]families sliding into the sea as the ship tilted andbegan to go [b]down. Others desperately [b][b]tried to put lifeboats down. Some who succeeded fought offthose in [b]the water who had the [b][b]strength to try to claw their way aboard. Most people froze [b]immediately. 'Tll never forget [b][b]the screams," says Christa Ntitzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 [b]survivors. She recalls [b][b]watching the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave - and [b]into seeming [b][b]nothingness, rarely mentioned for more than half a century.[b]Now Germany's Nobel Prize-winning author Gtinter Grass has [b]revived the memory of [b][b]the 9,000 dead, including more than 4,000 children - with his latest [b]novel Crab Walk, [b][b]published last month. The book, which will be out in English next [b]year, doesn't dwell on [b][b]the sinking; its heroine is a pregnant young woman who survives the [b]catastrophe only to [b][b]say later: "Nobody wanted to hear about it, not here in the West [b](of Germany) and not at [b][b]all in the East." The reason was obvious. As Grass put it in a [b]recent interview with the [b][b]weekly Die Woche: "Because the crimes we Germans are responsible for [b]were and are so [b][b]dominant, we didn't have the energy left to tell of our own [b]sufferings.''[b]The long silence about the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was [b]probably unavoidable [b][b]- and necessary. By unreservedly owning up to their country's [b]monstrous crimes in the [b][b]Second World War, Germans have managed to win acceptance abroad, [b]marginalize ( 使...不得势 [b][b]) the neo- Nazis at home and make peace with their neighbors. [b]Today's unified Germany is [b][b]more prosperous and stable than at any time in its long, troubled [b]history. For that, a [b][b]half century of willful forgetting about painful memories like the [b]German Titanic was [b][b]perhaps a reasonable price to pay. But even the most politically [b]correct Germans believe [b][b]that they' ye now earned the right to discuss the full historical [b]record. Not to equate [b][b]German suffering with that of its victims, but simply to acknowledge [b]a terrible tragedy.[b]21. Why does the author say the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was [b]the worst tragedy in [b][b]maritime history?[b]A) It was attacked by Russian torpedoes.[b]B) Most of its passengers were frozen to death.[b]C) Its victims were mostly women and children.[b]* D) It caused the largest number of casualties.[b]22. Hundreds of families dropped into the sea when[b]A) a strong ice storm tilted the ship[b]B) the cruise ship sank all of a sudden[b]*C) the badly damaged ship leaned toward one [b]side[b]D) the frightened passengers fought [b]desperately for lifeboats[b]23. The Wilhelm Gustloff tragedy was little talked about for more [b]than half a century [b][b]because Germans[b]A) were eager,to win international acceptance[b]* B) felt guilty for their crimes in World War II[b]C)~ad been pressured to keep silent about it[b]D) were afraid of offending their neighbors[b][b]24. How does Gunter Grass revive the memory of the Wilhelm Gustloff [b]tragedy?[b]A) By presenting the horrible scene of the [b]torpedo attack.[b]B) By describing the ship's sinking in great [b]detail.[b]C) By giving an interview to the weekly Die [b]Woche.[b]*D) By depicting the survival of a young [b]pregnant woman.[b]25. It can be learned from the passage that Germans no longer think [b]that[b]*A) they will be misunderstood if they talk about the Wilhelm [b]Gustloff tragedy[b]B) the Wilhelm Gustloff tragedy is a reasonable price to pay [b]for the nation's [b][b]past misdeeds[b]C) Germany is responsible for the horrible crimes it [b]committed in World War II[b]D) it-is wrong to equate their sufferings with those of [b]other countries[b][b]Passage Two[b]Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.[b]Given the lack of fit between gifted students and their [b]schools, it is not [b][b]surprising that such students often have little good to say 'about [b]their school [b][b]experience. In one study of 400 adul who had achieved distinction in [b]all areas of life, [b][b]researchers found that three-fifths of these individuals either did [b]badly in school or [b][b]were unhappy in school. Few MacArthur Prize fellows, winners of the [b]MacArthur Award for [b][b]creative accomplishment, had good things to say about their [b]precollegiate schooling if [b][b]they had not been placed in advanced programs. Anecdotal ( 名人轶事[b]) reports support this. Pablo Picasso, Charles Darwin, Mark Twain, [b]Oliver Goldsmith, and [b][b]William Butler Yeats all disliked school. So did Winston Churchill, [b]who almost failed out [b][b]of Harrow, an elite British school. About Oliver Goldsmith, one of [b]his teachers remarked, [b][b]"Never was so dull a boy." Often these children realize that they [b]know more than their [b][b]teachers, and their teachers often feel that these children are [b]arrogant, inattentive, or [b][b]unmotivated.[b]Some of these gifted people may have done poorly in school [b]because their, gifts [b][b]were not scholastic. Maybe we can account for Picasso in this way. [b]But most fared poorly [b][b]in school not because they lacked ability but because they found [b]school unchallenging and [b][b]consequently lost interest. Yeats described the lack of fit between [b]his mind and school: [b][b]"Because I had found it difficult to attend to anything less [b]interesting than my own [b][b]thoughts, I was difficult to teach." As noted earlier, gifted [b]children of all kinds tend [b][b]to be strong-willed nonconformists. Nonconformity[b]and stubbornness (and Yeats's level of arrogance and self-[b]absorption) are likely to lead [b][b]to Conflicts with teachers.[b]When highly gifted students in any domain talk about what was [b]important to the [b][b]development of their abilities, they are far more likely to mention [b]their families than [b][b]their schools or teachers. A writing prodigy (神童) studied by David [b]Feldman and Lynn [b][b]Goldsmith was taught far more about writing by his journalist father [b]than his English [b][b]teacher. High-IQ children, in Australia studied by Miraca Gross had [b]much more positive [b][b]feelings about their families than their schools. About half of the [b]mathematicians studied [b][b]by Benjamin Bloom had little good to say about school. They all did [b]well in school and [b][b]took honors classes when available, and some skipped grades.[b]26. The main point the author is making about schools is that[b]A) they should satisfy the needs of students from [b]different family backgrounds[b]*B) they are often incapable of catering to the needs of [b]talented students[b]C) they should organize their classes according to the [b]students' ability[b]D) they should enroll as many gifted students as possible[b]27. The author quotes the remarks of one of Oliver Goldsmith's [b]teachers[b]*A) to provide support for his argument[b]B) to illustrate the strong will of some gifted children[b]C) to explain how dull students can also be successful[b]D) to show how poor Oliver's performance was at school[b]28. Pablo Picasso is listed among the many gifted children who[b]A) paid no attention to their teachers in class[b]B) contradicted their teachers much too often[b]C) could not cope with their studies at school successfully[b]*D) behaved arrogantly and stubbornly in the presence of [b]their teachers[b]29. Many gifted people attributed their success.[b]*A) mainly to parental help and their education at home[b]B) both to school instruction and to their parents' coaching[b]C) more to their parents' encouragement than to school [b]training[b]D) less to their systematic education than to their talent[b]30. The root cause of many gifted students having bad memories of [b]their school years is [b][b]that[b]A) their nonconformity brought them a lot of trouble[b]B) they were seldom praised by their teachers[b]* C) school courses failed to inspire or motivate them[b]D) teachers were usually far stricter than their parents[b][b][b]　 Passage Three[b]Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.[b]When we worry about who might be spying on our private lives, [b]we usually think about [b][b]the Federal agents. But the private sector outdoes the government [b]every time. It's Linda [b][b]Tripp, not the FBI, who is facing charges under Maryland's laws [b]against secret telephone [b][b]taping. It's our banks, not the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), that [b]pass our private [b][b]financial data to telemarketing fin'ms.[b]Consumer activists are pressing Congress for better privacy [b]laws without much result [b][b]so far. The legislators lean toward letting business people track [b]our financial habits [b][b]virtually at will.[b]As an example of what's going on, consider U.S. Bancorp, which [b]was recently sued for [b][b]deceptive practices by the state of Minnesota. According to the [b]lawsuit, the bank supplied [b][b]a telemarketer called MemberWorks with sensitive customer data such [b]as names,, ph'one [b][b]numbers, bank-account and credit-card numbers, Social Security [b]numbers, account balances [b][b]and credit limits.[b]With these customer lists in hand, MemberWorks started dialing [b]for dollars - selling [b][b]dental plans, videogames, computer software and other products and [b]services. Customers who [b][b]accepted a "free trial offer" had, 30 days to cancel. If the [b]deadline passed, they were [b][b]charged automatically through their bank or credit-card accounts. [b]U.S. Bancorp collected a [b][b]share of the revenu--es_ ....[b]Customers were doubly deceived, the lawsuit claims. They. [b]didn't know that the bank [b][b]was giving account numbers to MemberWorks. And if customers asked, [b]they were led to think [b][b]the answer was no.[b]The state sued MemberWorks separately for deceptive selling. [b]Thecompany de'hies that [b][b]it did anything wrong. For its part, U.S. Bancorp settled without [b]admitting any mistakes. [b][b]But it agreed to stop exposing its customers to nonfinancial [b]products sold by outside [b][b]firms. A few top banks decided to do the same. Many other banks will [b]still do business [b][b]with MemberWorks and similar firms.[b]And banks will still be mining data from your account in order [b]to sell you financial [b][b]products, including things of little value, such as credit insurance [b]and credit-card [b][b]protection plans.[b]You have almost no protection from businesses that use your [b]personal accounts for [b][b]profit. For example, no federal law shields "transaction and [b]experience" information - [b][b]mainly the details of your bank and credit-card accounts. Social [b]Security numbers are for [b][b]sale by private fa'ms. They've generally agreed not to sell to the [b]public. But to [b][b]businesses, the numbers are an open book. Selfregulation doesn't [b]work. A firm might [b][b]publish a privacy-protection policy, but who enforces it?[b]Take U.S. Bancorp again. Customers were told, in writing, [b]that "all personal [b][b]information you supply to us will be considered confidential." Then [b]it sold your data to [b][b]MemberWorks. The bank even claims that it doesn't "sell" your data [b]at all. It merely [b][b]"shares" it and reaps a profit. Now you know.[b]31. Contrary to popular belief, the author finds that spying on [b]people's privacy[b]A) is mainly carried out by means of secret taping[b]B) has been intensified with the help of the IRS[b]C) is practiced exclusively by the FBI[b]*D) is more prevalent in business circles[b]32. We know from the passage that[b]A) legislators are acting to pass a law to provide better [b]privacy protection[b]B) most states are turning a blind eye to the deceptive [b]practices of private [b][b]businesses[b]C) the state of Minnesota is considering drawing up laws [b]to protect private [b][b]information[b]* D) lawmakers are inclined tO give a free hand to [b]businesses to inquire into [b][b]customers' buying habits[b][b]33. When the "free trial" deadline is over, you'll be charged [b]without notice for a product [b][b]or service if[b]* A) you fail to cancel it within the specified period[b]B) you happen to reveal your credit card number[b]C) you find the product or service unsatisfactory[b]D) you fail to apply for extension of the deadline[b]34. Businesses do not regard information concerning personal bank [b]accounts as private [b][b]because[b]A) its revelation will do no harm to consumers under the [b]current protection policy[b]* B) it is considered "transaction and experience" [b]information unprotected by law[b]C) it has always been considered an open secret by the [b]general public[b]D) its sale can be brought under control through self-[b]regulation[b]35. We can infer from the passage that[b]A) banks will have to change their ways of doing business[b]B) privacy protection laws will soon be enforced[b]* C) consumers' privacy will continue to be invaded[b]D) "free trial" practice will eventually be banned[b]Passage Four[b]Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.[b]It's hardly news that the immigration system is a mess. Foreign [b]nationals have long [b][b]been slipping across the border with fake papers, and visitors who [b]arrive in the U.S. [b][b]legitimately often overstay their legal welcome without being [b]punished. But since Sept. [b][b]11, it's become clear that terrorists have been shrewdly factoring [b]the weaknesses of our [b][b]system into their plans. In addition to their mastery of forging [b]passports, at least three [b][b]of the 19 Sept. 11 hijackers (劫机者) were here on expired visas. [b]That's been a safe bet [b][b]until now. The Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) ( 移民归[b]化局 ) lacks the [b][b]resources, and apparently the inclination, to keep track of the [b]estimated 2 million [b][b]foreigners who have intentionally overstayed their welcome.[b]But this laxness (马虎) toward immigration fraud may be about [b]to change. Congress [b][b]has already taken some modest steps. The U.S.A. Patriot Act, passed [b]in the wake of the [b][b]Sept. 11 tragedy, requires the FBI, the Justice Department, the [b]State Department and the [b][b]INS to share more data, which will make it easier to stop watch-[b]listed terrorists at the [b][b]border.[b]But what's really needed, critics say, is even tougher laws and [b]more resources aimed [b][b]at tightening up border security. Reformers are calling for a [b]rollback of rules that [b][b]hinder law enforcement.They also want the INS to hire hundreds more [b]border patrol agents [b][b]and investigators to keep illegal immigrants out and to track them [b]down once they're here. [b][b]Reformers also want to see the INS set up a database to monitor [b]whether visa holders [b][b]actually leave the country when they are required to.[b]All these proposed changes were part of a new border-security [b]bill that passed the [b][b]House of Representatives but died in the Senate last week. Before [b]Sept. 11, legislation of [b][b]this kind had been blocked by two powerful lobbies: universities, [b]which rely on tuition [b][b]from foreign students who could be kept out by the new law, and [b]business, which relies on [b][b]foreigners for cheap labor. Since the attacks, they've backed off. [b]The bill would have [b][b]passed this time but for congressional maneuverings and is expected [b]to be reintroduced and [b][b]to pass next year.[b]Also on the agenda for next year: a proposal, backed by [b]some influential law-[b][b]makers, to split the INS into two agencies - a good cop that would [b]tend to service [b][b]functions like processing citizenship papers and a bad cop that [b]would concentrate on [b][b]border inspections, deportation and other functions. One reason for [b]the division, [b][b]supporters say, is that the INS has in recent years become too [b]focused on serving tourists [b][b]and immigrants. After the Sept. l 1 tragedy, the INS should pay more [b]attention to serving [b][b]the millions of ordinary Americans who rely on the nation's border [b]security to protect [b][b]them from terrorist attacks.[b]36. Terrorists have obviously taken advantage of[b]A) the legal privileges granted to foreigners[b]B) the excessive hospitality of the American people[b]C) the irresponsibility of the officials at border [b]checkpoints[b]* D) the low efficiency of the Immigration and [b]Naturalization Service[b]37. We learn from the passage that coordinated efforts will [b]be made by various [b][b]U.S. government agencies to[b]A) refuse the renewing of expired visas[b]*B) ward off terrorist suspects at the border[b]C) prevent the forgery of immigration papers[b]D). limit the number Of immigrants to the U.S.[b]38. It can be inferred from the passage that before Sept. [b]11, aliens with expired [b][b]visas[b]A) might have them extended without trouble[b]B) would be closely watched by FBI agents[b]* C) might stay on for as long as [hey wished[b]D) would live in constant fear of deportation[b]39. It is believed by many that all these years the INS[b]A) has been serving two contradictory functions '[b]B) has been too liberal in granting visas to [b]tourists and immigrants [b][b]indiscriminately[b]* C) has over-emphasized its service functions at [b]the expense of the [b][b]nation's security[b]D) has ignored the pleas of the two powerful lobbies[b]40. Before Sept. 11, the U.S. Congress had been unable to [b]pass stricter [b][b]immigration laws because[b]*A) they might have kept away foreign students and [b]cheap labor[b]B) it was difficult to coordinate the efforts of [b]the congressmen[b]C) education and business circles cared little [b]about national security[b]D) resources were not available for their [b]enforcement [b][b]Part III Vocabulary (20 minutes) [b][b]41.
