[填空题]This passage outlines five strategies for making parents wise consumers.
[单项选择]Passage One
Five or six years ago, I attended a lecture on the science of attention. A philosopher who conducts research in the medical school was talking about attention blindness, the basic feature of the human brain that, when we concentrate intensely on one task, causes us to miss just about everything else. Because we can’t see what we can’t see, our lecturer was determined to catch us in the act. He had us watch a video of six people tossing basketballs back and forth, three in white shirts and three in black, and our task was to keep track only of the tosses among the people in white. The tape rolled, and everyone began counting.
Everyone except me, I’m dyslexic (有阅读障碍的），and the moment I saw that grainy tape with the confusing basketball tossers, I knew I wouldn’t be able to keep track of their movements, so I let my mind wander. My curiosity was aroused, though, when about 30 seconds into the tape, a gorilla (大猩猩)came in among the players. She (we later learned

Passage Five
Some modern anthropologists hold that
biological evolution has shaped not only human morphology but also human
behavior. The role those anthropologists ascribe to evolution is not of
dictating the details of human behavior but one of imposing constraints-ways of
feeling, thinking, and acting that "come naturally" in archetypal situations in
any culture. Our "frailties" --emotions and motives such as rage, fear, greed,
gluttony, joy, lust, love--may be a very mixed assortment, but they share at
least one immediate quality: we are, as we say, "in the grip" of them. And thus
they give us our sense of constraints.
Unhappily, some of those
frailties--our need for ever-increasing security among them--are presently
maladaptive. Yet beneath the overlay of cultural detail, they, too, are said to
be biological in direction, and therefore
A. a position on the foundations of human behavior and on what those foundations imply
B. a theory outlining the parallel development of human morphology and of human behavior
C. a diagnostic test for separating biologically determined behavior patterns from culture- specific detail
D. a practical method for resisting the pressures of biologically determined drives
[单项选择] Passage Five
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change concluded that global warming is no game. They provide evidence that
heat-trapping gases related to human activities--such as carbon dioxide from
burning coal, oil, and gas--are in part driving global warming by increasing the
amount of the sun’s heat trapped in the earth’s atmosphere. This extra heat is
making the global climate system unstable. Because the climate system is
complex, scientists cannot predict precisely how much and how fast the climate
will change. But sophisticated computer simulations project a range of scenarios
for increases in average surface temperature between 1.8° and 6.3°F (1° and
3.5℃) by the year 2100. (Bear in mind that seemingly small changes in
temperature can produce major changes in climate. During the last Ice Age,
global temperatures were only 5° to 9
A. Global Warming Is a Serious Problem
B. Global-Warming Does Exist
C. The Dangers of Global Warming
D. What Is Causing Global Warming
