Section C

Directions: In this section, you will hear a passage three times. When the passage is read for the first time,you should

blanks with the exact words you have just heard. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should

check what you have written.

If you're like most people, you've indulged in fake listening many times. You go to history class, sit in the third

row, and look squarely at the instructor as she speaks. But your mind is far away,26inthe clouds of pleasant

daydreams. Occasionally you come back to earth: The instructor writes an important term on the chalkboard, and you

27copy it in your notebook. Every once in a while the instructor makes a 28remark, causing others in the class to

laugh. You smile politely, pretending that you've heard the remark and found it mildly humorous. You have a vague

sense of 29that you aren't paying close attention, but you tell yourself that any material you miss can 30from a

friend's notes. Besides, the instructor's talking about road 31in ancient Rome, and nothing could be more boring. So

back you go into your private little world. Only later do you realize you've missed important information for a test.

Fake listening may be easily exposed, since many speakers 32facial cues and can tell if you're merely pretending

to listen. Your blank expression and the faraway look in your eyes are the cues that33your inattentiveness.

Even if you're not exposed, there's another reason to avoid fakery: It's easy for this34tobecome a habit. For some

people, the habit is so deeply rooted that they automatically start day dreaming when a speaker begins talking on

something35or uninteresting. As a result, they miss lots of valuable information.

Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)

Section A

Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank

from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making

your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on

Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the center. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.

Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.

It was 10 years ago, on a warm July night, that a newborn lamb took her first breath in a small shed

in Scotland. From the outside, she looked no different from thousands of other sheep born on 36farms. But Dolly, as

the world soon came to realize, was no 37lamb. She was cloned from a single cell of an adult female sheep,38long-

held scientific dogma that had declared such a thing biologically impossible.

A decade later, scientists are starting to come to grips with just how different Dolly was. Dozens of animals have

been cloned since that first lamb_mice, cats, cows and, most recently, a dog--and it's becoming 39clear that they are

all, in one way or another, defective.

It's 40to think of clones as perfect carbon copies of the original. It turns out, though, that there are various degrees

of genetic41. That may come as a shock to people who have paid thousands of dollars to clone a pet cat only to

discover that the baby cat looks and behaves 42liketheir beloved pet--with a different-color coat of fur, perhaps, or a

43different attitude toward its human hosts.

And these are just the obvious differences. Not only are clones 44from the original template(模板) by time, but

they are also the product of an unnatural molecular mechanism that turns out not to be very good at making

45copies. In fact, the process can embed small flaws in the genes of clones that scientists are only now discovering

注意：此部分试题请在答题卡 2上作答。

A．abstract F. identical K．overturning

B．completely. G. increasingly L． separated

C．deserted H．miniature M． surrounding

D. duplication I．Nothing N． systematically.

E. everything J. ordinary O． tempting

Section B

Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement

contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived.

You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by

marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.

Should Single-Sex Education Be Eliminated?

A）Why is a neuroscientist here debating single-sex schooling? Honestly, I had no fixed ideas on the topic when I

started researching it for my book, Pink Brain, Blue Brain. But any discussion of gender differences in children
