In 1857, when Mark Twain, born Samuel Clemens, became an apprentice river pilot, steam boating had been a part of the Mississippi scene for a quarter of a century. The steamboat dominated life along the old river. How well Sam knew the magic cry. S-t-e-a-m-boat are-coming, which woke his sleepy little hometown of Hannibal Missouri. Ten minutes before a steamboat touched the dock, the town would be dead, and ten minutes after the boat had departed, the familiar boatman’s sounding call “mark twain", meaning that the river depth measured two fathoms, or twelve feet of water, could still be heard.
Twain’s first experience as a cub pilot was aboard the steamer Paul Jones, out of New Orleans, and his instructor was the strict Horace Bixby.

[简答题]Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:
In 1964, the world coined a new word, Beatle-mania. That year the world was introduced to four Englishmen named John, Paul, George, and Ringo. For the next eight years, these four were the number one musical group. Each new album that appeared was a success, but the 1967 album called Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band was a milestone. It indicated a turning point in their music.
The music of the Beatles from 1964 to 1967 dealt with traditional love themes. All their songs from 1964 tell of happy meetings between boy and girl, the beginning of love. By 1966, the love affair isn’t moving smoothly. In the 1966 song "No Reply", the situation goes like this: "You" walked hand in hand with another man in my place. Yet the unfaithful love is part of the traditional love theme. The Beatles were still concerned almost totally with love in early 1967. Then came the Sgt. Pepper album. From the 1967 Sgt. Pepper albu

[简答题]Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:
Reading is not the only way to acquire knowledge of preceding work. There is another large reservoir which may be called experience, and the college student will find that every craftsman has something he can teach and will teach gladly to any college student who does not look down upon them.
The information from these quarters differs from that in textbooks and papers chiefly in that its theoretical part －the explanations of why things happen — is frequently quite fantastic. But the demonstration and report of what happens, and how it happens, are sound even if the reports are in completely unscientific terms. Presently the college student will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One important thing for a college student to remember is that if Aristotle could talk to the fisherman, so can he.
Another source of knowledge is the vast store of traditional practices handed down
A. A．The college students have trouble separating good plants from wild weeds.
B．Craftsman’s experience is usually unscientific.
C．The contemptuous college students will receive no instructions from craftsmen.
D．Traditional practices are as important as experience for the college students.

[填空题] Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
Japanese firms have achieved the highest levels of manufacturing efficiency in the world auto mobile industry. Some observers of Japan have assumed that Japanese firms use the same manufacturing equipment and techniques as United States firms but have benefited from the unique characteristics of Japanese employees and the Japanese culture. However, if this were true, then one would expect Japanese auto plants in the United States to perform no better than factories run by United States companies. This is not the case. Japanese-run automobile plants located in the United States and staffed by local workers have demonstrated higher levels of productivity when compared with factories owned by United States companies.
Other observers link high Japanese productivity to higher levels of capital investment per worker. But a historical perspective leads to a different conclusion. When the two top Japanese automobil
