Once upon a time in the West, the only acceptable role models available to women were that of the wife and mother. But now, not only are feminist critics and historians rediscovering the heroines of the past, we have also enough real heroines around today to believe our own new dreams of power.
Although Madonna’s star might be getting less bright in Britain and America, let us not underestimate her influence. Many young women used to think that being a strong, feminist, demanding woman meant that they might have to give up their claims to be sexual, funny and individualist. But here is someone who is completely in control of her life, her art, her performance. When she grabs her crotch on stage or sells a book o f pin-up pictures of herself, we can see her recreating images that have been used before only to exploit women , and using them to show women that their sexuality is something to be proud of .
No wonder of Madonna’s fans are not men but young women. They are responding to this new, real possibility that they can play with fire and may not get burnt. They identify with the fat that Madonna controls all aspects of her art, rather than being the innocent victim.
Another female icon whose power has swept through women’s imaginations is Margaret Thatcher. It is all very well for her to say that she does not think she woes the women’s movement anything. What is important for women, whether or not they sympathizes with her methods, politics or rhetoric, is that here was a woman who stood with the men at the G7 summits or in the British Cabinet as a leader among leaders.
She is not an icon that is easy to cope with. Just as with Madonna, she goes against the grain of the most traditional images of female power. But by breaking through the male cordons of the British establishment she has made sure that never again can a woman’s ability to run a democratic country be questioned just because she is a woman.
31.It can be seen from the passage that Madonna’s influence is _________.
more and more increasing B. still great in societyC. becoming less and lessD. disappearing as time goes by
32.Most of Madonna’s fans are young women because _________.
she controls all aspects of her life and art B. she sells a book of pin-up pictures of herself
C. she grabs her crotch on stage D. she uses her pictures to show that she is sexy
33.It is indicated in the passage that Margaret Thatcher __________.
became successful because she was the only stateswoman among statesmen.
Thinks male British leaders should have done more to help women
Thinks her success has nothing to do with the women’s movement
Has donated a large sum of money to the women’s movement
34.The example of Margaret Thatcher shows that __________.
everyone should support the women’s movement B women should learn to work together with men
C one’s ability should not be judged by sex D women should not seek to be sexual only
35.The main idea of the passage is __________.
women have gathered strength from the women’s movement B. women have achieved a new-found power
C women should take careers to realize their power D women’s role should be in the home

In science the meaning of the word “explain” suffers with civilization’s every step in search of reality. Science cannot really explain electricity, magnetism, and gravitation; their effects can be measured and predicted, but of their nature no more is known to the modern scientist than to Thales who first speculated on the electrification of amber. Most contemporary physicists reject the notion that man can ever discover what these mysterious forces”really” are. “Electricity”, Bertrand Russell says, “ is not a thing, like St. Paul’s Cathedral; it is a way in which things behave. When we have told how things behave when they are electrified, and under what circumstances they are electrified, we have told all there is to tell.” Until recently scientists would have disapproved to such an ideA.
Aristotle, for example, whose natural science dominated Western thought for two thousand years, believed that man could arrive at an understanding of reality by reasoning from self-evident principles. He felt, for example, that it is a self-evident principle that everything in the universe has the ground because that’s where it belongs. The goal of Aristotelian science was to explain why things happen. Modern science was born when Galileo began trying to explain how things happen and thus originated the method of controlled experiment which now forms the basis of scientific investigation.
36. The aim of the controlled experiment is ___________.
A. to explain why things happen B. to explain how things happen
C. to form the basis of scientific investigation.D. to prove accepted theories
37. What principles most influenced scientific thought for two thousand years?
A. Thales’ speculations. B. Self-evident principles.
C. Aristotle’s natural science. D. Russell’s theory on electricity.
38. Bertrand Russell’s notion about electricity is __________.
A. disapproved of by most modern scientistsB. in agreement with Aristotle’s theory of self-evident principles
C. disagreed by Galileo’s theory D. supported by scientific investigation directed toward “how”things happen
39. The passage says that until recently scientists disagreed with the idea that _________.
A. man can’t discover what forces “really” are B. there are mysterious forces in the universe
C. there are self-evident principles D. we can discover why things behave as they do
40. According to Aristotle, that objects fall to the ground __________.
A. is a result of reasoning B. could be explained from self-evident principles
C. is an instance of self-evident principle D. could be tested by experience

When John Milton, writer of“Paradise Lost”, entered Cambridge University, in 1625, he was already skilled in Latin after seven years of studying it as his second language at St. Paul’s School, London. Like all English boys who prepared for college in grammar schools, he had learned not only to read Latin but also to speak and write it smoothly and correctly. His pronunciation of Latin was English, however, and seemed to have sounded strange to his friends when he later visited Italy.
Schoolboys gained their skill in Latin in a bitter way. They kept in mind the rules to make learning by heart easier. They first made a word -for -word translation and then an idiomatic translation into English. As they increased their skill, they translated their English back into Latin without referring to the book and then compared their translation with the original. The schoolmaster was always at hand to encourage them. All schoolmasters believed Latin should be beaten in.
After several years of study, the boys began to write compositions in imitation of the Latin writers they read. And as they began to read Latin poems, they began to write poems in Latin. Because Milton was already a poet at ten, his poems were much better than those painfully put together by the other boys. During the seven years Milton spent at university, he made regular use of his command of Latin. He wrote some excellent Latin poems, which he published among his works in 1645.
41．What does the passage mainly tell about? A. How John Milton wrote“ Paradise Lost”.
B. How John Milton studied Latin. C. How John Milton became famous.D. How John Milton became a poet.

C. It was natural and easy to understand. D. It was bad and difficult to understand.
43．It can be inferred from the passage that________.
A. Milton’s training in Latin was similar to that of the other boys
B. Milton hadn’t learned any foreign language except Latin before going to college
C. Milton’s Italian friends helped him with Latin when talking
D. Milton's classmates learned Latin harder but worse than Milton
44．Which of the following is suggested in the passage?
A. The schoolmaster mainly helped those who were bad at Latin.
B. The schoolmaster usually stood beside the schoolboys with a stick in his hand.
C. The schoolboys could repeat Latin grammar rules from memory.
D. Some of the schoolboys were quick at writing compositions in Latin.
45．What is the meaning of the underlined part“ Latin should be beaten in”that the writer wishes you to understand?
A. Schoolboys should be punished if they were lazy to learn Latin.
B. Schoolboys should be encouraged if they had difficulty in learning Latin.
C. Schoolboys were expected to master Latin in a short time.
D. Schoolboys had to study Latin in a hard way.

Between about 1910 and 1930, new artistic movements in European art were making themselves felt in the United States. American artists became acquainted with the new art on their trips to Paris and at the exhibitions in the famous New York gallery “291”( named after its address on Fifth Avenue) of the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. But most important in the spread of the modern movements in the United States was the sensational Armory Show of the 1913 held in New York, in which the works of many of the leading European artists were seen along with the works of a number of progressive American painters.
Several of the American modernists who were influenced by the Armory Show found the urban landscape, especially New York, an appealing subject. Compared with the works of the realist painters, the works of American modernists were much further removed from the actual appearance of the city; they were more interested in the “feel “ of the city, more concerned with the meaning behind appearance. However, both the painters of the Ash Can School” and the later realists were still tied to nineteenth-century or earlier styles, while the early modernists shared in the international breakthroughs of the art of the twentieth century.
The greatest of these breakthroughs was Cubism, developed most fully in France between 1907 and 1914, which brought about a major revolution in Western painting. It overturned the regional tradition that had been built upon since the Renaissance. In cubism, natural forms were broken down analytically into geometric shapes. No longer was a clear differentiation made between the figure and the background of a painting: the objects represented and the surface on which they were painted became one. The Cubists abandoned the conventional single vantage point of the viewer, and objects depicted from multiple viewpoints were shown at the same way.
46.What’s the main topic of the passage?
Modern art movements in the United States.
The great influence of Cubism.
Several American modernists found urban landscape an appealing subject.
Contemporary artists in the United States.
47.Which of the following is not mentioned as a means through which American artists learned about new movements?

C The exhibitions in the famous New York gallery “291”. DThe sensational Armory Show in 1913.
48.What was exhibited on the sensational Armory Show of 1913 in New York?
Works of many leading European artists as well as works of many progressive American painters.
Works of all the European artists and American painters.
Works of a number of American modernists and painters of the “Ash Can School”.
Works of European artists only.
49.According to the author, which of the following was a major new movement in twentieth-century art?
A. Impressionism. B. Cubism. C. The rational tradition.D. Realism.
50.What do we know about Cubism?
It made a clear differentiation between the figure and the background of a painting.
Natural forms were broken down analytically into shape of a square.
The object represented and the surface on which they were painted became one.
The Cubists preserved the conventional single vantage point of the viewer.
