There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions: technology is a matter of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between observable phenomena in nature and with
establishing theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and procedures for implementing the findings of science. Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each.
Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comprehend the
universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy and certainty, cannot pay heed to their own or other people's likes and dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people -- as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the option of refusing it! But hardly so with technology: we do not have the option of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe polluted air. Unlike science, progress in technology must be measured in terms of the human factor. Technology must be our slave and not the reverse. The legitimate purpose of
technology is to serve people -- people in general, not merely some people: and future generations, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.
We are all familiar with the abuses of technology. Many people blame technology itself for widespread pollution, resource depletion and even social decay in general -- so much so that the promise of technology is obscured. That promise is a cleaner and healthier world. If wise application of science and technology do not lead to a better world, what else will? 61. The difference between science and technology lies in that _________.
A. the former seeks to comprehend the universe while the latter helps change the material world B. the former provides answers to theoretical questions while the latter, to practical problems C. all of the mentioned
D. the former aims to discover the interconnections of facts and the rules that explain them while the
正确答案:C
注释:文中都明确提及,所以选all of the mentioned项。 62. Which of the following may be representative of science? A. mass production. B. faming tools.
C. the theory of evolution. D. the origin of the species. 正确答案:D
注释:第二段第三句话中达尔文的进化论被当作例子提出来,说明科学家的发现会让人震惊和愤怒。所 以选达尔文的“the origin of the species”。 63. According to the author, scientific theories _______ A. must be strictly objective
B. usually take into consideration people's likes and dislikes C. always appear in perfect and finished forms D. should conform to popular opinions 正确答案:A
注释:第二段的第一、二句话表明科学理论必须要客观。 64. The author states that technology itself ________. A. will inevitably be used for bad purposes
B. is responsible for widespread pollution and resource depletion C. will lead to a better world if put to wise use
D. should serve those who wish to gain advantage for themselves
正确答案:C
注释:根据文章最后一段的信息,尤其是最后一句的反问明确表明作者对技术应用的态度。 65. What is the suitable title for this passage? A. Technology -- Discovering New Designs B. Difference Between Science and Technology C. Science -- the Way to Comprehend the Universe D. Science and Technology 正确答案:D 注释:
文章前两段重点说明科学和技术之间的众多区别,第三段谈到人们对技术应用的片面理解,并提出科学和技术对于人类发展的巨大作用,即它们是使我们走上未来美好道路的力量。 Fried foods have long been frowned upon. Nevertheless, the frying pan is about our handiest and most useful piece of kitchen equipment. People engaged in active labor requiring 4,000
calories per day or more will take approximately one-third of their rations prepared in this fashion. Meat, eggs, and French toast cooked in this way are served in millions of homes daily. Apparently the consumers are not beset with more signs of indigestion than afflict those who insist upon broiling, roasting, or boiling. Some years ago one of our most eminent physiologists investigated the digestibility of fried potatoes. He found that the pan variety was more easily broken down for assimilation than when deep fat was employed. The latter, however, dissolved within the alimentary tract more readily than the boiled type. Furthermore, he learned, by watching the progress of the contents of the stomach by means of the fluoroscope, that fat actually accelerated the rate of digestion. Now all this is quite in contrast with \on nutrition, and everywhere the dictum has been accepted -- no fried edibles of any sort for children. A few will go so far as to forbid this style of cooking wholly. Now and then an expert will be bold enough to admit that he uses them himself, the absence of discomfort being explained on the ground that he possesses a powerful gastric apparatus. We can of course sizzle perfectly good articles to death so that they will be leathery and tough. But thorough heating, in the
presence of shortening, is not the awful crime that it has been labeled. Such dishes stimulate rather than retard contractions of the gall bladder. Thus it is that bile mixes with the nutriment shortly after it leaves the stomach. We don’t need to allow our foodstuffs to become oil soaked, but other than that, there seems to be no basis for the widely heralded prohibition against this method. But notions become fixed. The first condemnation probably arose because an” oracle\dyspepsia which he ascribed to some fried item on the menu. The theory spread. Others agreed with him, and after a time the doctrine became incorporated in our textbooks. The belief is now tradition rather than proved fact. It should have been refuted long since, as experience has demonstrated its falsity.

Americans today don't place a very high value on intellect. Our heroes are athletes, entertainers, and entrepreneurs, not scholars. Even our schools are where we send our children to get a
practical education -- not to pursue knowledge for the sake of knowledge. Symptoms of pervasive anti-intellectualism in our schools aren't difficult to find.
\says education writer Diane Ravitch. \Left Back A Century of Failed School Reforms, traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools, concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for
intellectual pursuits. But they could and should be. Encouraging kids to reject the life of the mind leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and control. Without the ability to think critically, to defend their ideas and understand the ideas of others, they cannot fully participate in our
democracy. Continuing along this path, says writer Earl Shorris, \country. We will have a less civil society. \
\Hofstadter in Anti-Intellectualism in American life, a Pulitzer Prize winning book on the roots of anti-intellectualism in US politics, religion, and education. From the beginning of our history, says Hofstadter, our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism. Practicality, common sense, and native intelligence have been considered more noble qualities than anything you could learn from a book.
Ralph Waldo Emerson and other Transcendentalist philosophers thought schooling and
rigorous book learning put unnatural restraints on children. \recitations rooms for 10 or 15 years and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing.\avoids being civilized -- going to school and learning to read – so he can preserve his innate goodness.
Intellect, according to Hofstadter, is different from native intelligence, a quality we reluctantly admire. Intellect is the critical, creative, and contemplative side of the mind. Intelligence seeks to grasp, manipulate, re-order, and adjust, while intellect examines, ponders, wonders, theorizes, criticizes and imagines. School remains a place where intellect is mistrusted. Hofstadter says our country's educational system is in the grips of people who \hostility to intellect and their eagerness to identify with children who show the least intellectual promise.
71. What do American parents expect their children to acquire in school? A. Practical abilities for future career. B. The habit of thinking independently. C. Profound knowledge of the world. D. The confidence in intellectual pursuits. 正确答案:A
注释:根据第一段第三句可知,美国父母期望孩子到学校学会些实用的技能。 72. We can learn from the text that Americans have a history of ______ A. supporting school reform. B. favoring intellectualism. C. undervaluing intellect.
D. suppressing native intelligence. 正确答案:C
注释:依据第二段中“…concluding。they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits”可知,美国人厌恶学识追求。 73. The views of Raviteh and Emerson on schooling are _____ A. identical
B. complementary C. similar D. opposite
正确答案:D
注释:对比第二段和第五段可知,这两人的观点正好相反。 74. Emerson, according to the text, is probably ________. A. an advocate of regular schooling. B. an opponent of intellectualism. C. a pioneer of education reform. D. a scholar in favor of intellect. 正确答案:B
注释:根据第五段中Emerson对学校的批评可知,他是学识的反对者。
It's said that George Washington was one of the first to realize how important the building of the canals would be to the nation's development. In fact, before he became President, he headed the first company in the US to build a canal which was to connect the Ohio and Potomac rivers. It was never completed, but it showed the nation the feasibility of canals. As the country expanded westward, settlers in western New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio needed a means to ship goods. Canals linking natural waterways seemed to offer an effective solution.
In 1791 engineers commissioned by the state of New York investigated the possibility of a canal between Albany on the Hudson River and Buffalo on Lake Erie, which would link the Great Lake area with the Atlantic seacoast. It would avoid the mountain that served as a barrier to canals from the Delaware and Potomac rivers.
The first attempt to dig the canal, to be called the Erie Canal, was made by private companies, but only a comparatively small portion was built before the project was halted for lack of funds. The cost of the project was an estimated 5 million dollars, an enormous amount for those days. There was some on-again-off-again Federal funding, but the War of 1812 put an end to this. In 1817, Dewitt Clinton was elected governor of New York and persuaded the state to finance and build the canal. It was completed in 1825, costing 2 million dollars more than expected.
The canal rapidly lived up to its sponsors~ faith, quickly paying for itself through tolls. It was far more economical than any other form of transportation at the time. It permitted trade between the Great Lake region and East Coast, robbing the Mississippi River of much of its traffic. It
allowed New York to supplant Boston, Philadelphia, and other eastern cities as the chief center of both domestic and foreign commerce. Cities sprang up along the canal. It also contributed in a number of ways to the north's victory over the south in the CivilWar.
An expansion of the canal was planned in 1849. Increased traffic would undoubtedly have warranted its construction had it not been for the development of the railroads.
75. Why does the author most likely mention George Washington in the first paragraph? A. He successfully opened the first canal in the US.
B. He was President at the time the Erie Canal was built. C. He was involved in pioneering efforts to build canals.
D. He commissioned engineers to study the possibility of building the Erie Canal. 正确答案:C 注释:
文章整篇讲的是修运河,开头提到George Washington是为了说明他早就意识到运河的重要性,并 付诸努力尝试修筑运河。
76. The completion of the Erie Canal was financed by __________ A. the state of New York B. private companies C. the federal government D. Dewitt Clinton 正确答案:A 注释:
第三段的倒数第二句话“Dewitt Clinton was elected governor of New York and Persuaded the state to finance and build the canal.”这里的“state”指的是“the state of New York”。 77. The actual cost of building the Erie Canal was ________ A. less than had been estimated B. 7 million dollar C. 5 million dollars
D. more than could be repaid
正确答案:B
注释:根据第三段的旬中“The Cost of the project was an estimated 5 million dollars”和句末“costing 2 million dollars more than expected”。
78. Which of the following is not given in the fourth paragraph as an effect of the building of the Erie Canal?
A. It allowed the east coast to trade with the Great Lakes area. B. It took water traffic away from the Mississippi River. C. It helped determine the outcome of the civil war.
D. It established Boston and Philadelphia as the most important centers of trade. 正确答案:D 注释:
在第四段中有明确提示,而It established Boston and Philadelphia as the most important centers of trade.项与文中意思(“它使纽约取代其他东部城市而成为国内外商业的中心”)相反。
79. What can be inferred about railroads in 1849 from the information in the last paragraph? A. They had begun to compete with the Erie Canal for traffic. B. They were being planned but had not yet been built. C. They were weakened by the expansion of the canal. D. They were seriously ~ underdeveloped. 正确答案:A
注释:最后一句使用的是虚拟语气,意思是“如果不是铁路的发展,增加的运输量肯定会使运河的扩建 为现实。”暗含铁路已经开始与运河争夺运输量之意。
80. The phrase \change in meaning?

Vacations are more necessary now than before because today the average life is less well rounded and has become increasingly compartmentalized.I suppose the idea of vacations,as we conceive it,must be incomprehensible to primitive peoples.Rest of some kind has of course always been a part of the rhythm of human life,but earlier ages did not find it necessary to organize it in the way that modern man has done.Holidays and feast days were sufficient. 81
