[单项选择] Passage Four
Most people would agree that, although
our age exceeds all previous ages in knowledge, there has been no corresponding
increase in wisdom. But agreement ceases as soon as we attempt to define
"wisdom" and consider means of promoting it. There are several factors that
contribute to wisdom. Of these I should put first a sense of proportion: the
capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach
to each its due weight. This has become more difficult than it
used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the special knowledge required
of various kinds of technicians. Suppose, for example, that you are engaged in
research in scientific medicine. The work is difficult and is likely to absorb
the whole of your mind. You have no time to consider the effect which your
discoveries or inventions may have ou A. how much more wisdom we have now than before B. what wisdom is and how to develop it C. if there is a great increase of wisdom in our age D. whether wisdom can be developed or not

[单项选择] Passage Two
Would you eat a bacon, lettuce and love
apple sandwich You probably have eaten many of them. Love apple was the name
used many years ago for the tomato. The tomato is originally an
American plant. It was found in South America by early Spanish explorers. The
word tomato comes from the native Nahuatl word tomatl. But when it moved north,
the plant earned a different name. Remarkably, the settlers in North America
thought it was poisonous. They believed that to eat it was surely to die. It was
said that deserted suitors would threaten to eat a tomato to cause their
coldhearted lovers regret. Because of this legend, the settlers called the
tomato a "love apple." While people enjoyed other native plants such as corn and
sweet potatoes, everyone avoided the tomato. No one knows who
first dared to eat a tomato. Perhaps someone was A. they had too much other food B. they mistakenly thought they were poisonous C. settlers ate only traditional European foods D. no one liked the taste
