We tend to assume that experts and religious leaders tell us“the truth”. We tend to believe that things advertised on television or in newspapers cant be bad for us. However, encouragement of critical thinking in students is one of the goals of most colleges and universities. Few professors require students to share the professorsown beliefs. In general， professors are more concerned that students learn to question and critically examine the arguments of others， including some of their own beliefs or values. This does not mean that professors insist that you change your beliefs， either. It does mean， however, that professors will usually ask you to support the views you express in class or in your writing. If your premises(前提)are shaky, or if your arguments are not logical， professors personally point out the false reasoning in your arguments. Most professors want you to learn to recognize the premises of your arguments， to examine whether you really accept these premises， and to understand whether or not you draw logical conclusions. Put it this way: professors dont tell you what to think； they try to teach you how to think. On the other hand， if you intend to disagree with your professors in class, you should be prepared to offer a strong argument in support of your ideas. Arguing just for the sake of arguing usually does not promote a critical examination of ideas. Many professors interpret it as rudeness. 36. In the first paragraph， the writer tries to tell us that people _.A. easily accept certain things without a second thoughtB. grow up through learning certain things in lifeC. are forming their views during their growthD. have strong beliefs in authorities while getting old37. Nowadays， most colleges and universities encourage students to _.A. criticize others B. share professors beliefsC. give their own ideas D. change their own beliefs38.

To help students develop their critical thinking， professors mainly teach them _.A. choice of their premisesB. the way to think independently C. skills of drawing conclusionsD. different kinds of argument40. According to the writer, the right way to argue is to_.A. argue mainly for the sake of arguingB. prove it with a good conclusionC. support your idea with sound reasoning D. examine others ideas criticallyPassage 2Pepys and his wife had asked some friends to dinner on Sunday， September 2nd， 1666. They were up very late on the Saturday evening， getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow of a fire start in the sky. By 3 oclock on the Sunday morning， its glow had become so bright that Jane woke her husband to watch it. Pepys slipped on his dressing gown and went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away， so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning， it looked， as though the fire was dying down， though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them. While he was doing this， Jane came in to say that she had heard the fire was a bad one：three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the buildings so that he could see what was happening. From there， Pepys could see that it was， indeed， a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. The man of the Tower told him that the fire had started in a bakers shop in Pudding Lane； the bakers house had caught fire from the over-heated oven and then the flames had quickly spread to the other houses in the narrow lane. So began the Great Fire of London， a fire that lasted nearly five days， destroyed most of the old city and ended， so it is said， at Pie Corner. 41. What is the passage about?A.

D. The bakers house was burning quickly. Passage 3Acting is such an over-crowded profession that the only advice that should be given to a young person thinking of going on the stage is “Dont ”! But it is useless to try to discourage someone who feels that he must act, although the chances of his becoming famous are slim. The normal way to begin is to go to a drama school. Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a theatrical company, usually as an assistant stage manager. This means doing everything that there is to do in the theatre:painting scenery, publicity （宣传）， taking care of the costumes （舞台服装）， and even acting in very small parts. It is very hard work indeed. The hours are long and the salary is tiny. Of course, some people have remarkable chances which lead to fame and success without this long and hard training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle factory. A film producer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he drove past in his car. He stopped and asked if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and she thought he was joking. It took the producer twenty minutes to convince Connie that he was serious. The test was successful. And within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of the day. But chances like this happen once in a blue moon!46. From the very beginning, the author puts it clearly that acting is a profession _.A. for ambitious people only B. for young people onlyC. too difficult for young people D. sought after by too many people47. For someone who feels he must act, it is very likely that _.A. he will become a film star at long lastB. he will be well paidC. he will end up without becoming a film starD. he will become a stage manager48. A few weeks after the test, Connie Pratt found herself _.A. as famous as the greatest actor of the worldB. playing the leading female role in a playC. no less famous than the leading actor of the dayD. the most famous actress of the world49. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as part of an assistant stage managers job?A. Help advertise plays.B. Play minor roles.C. Collect tickets.D. Take care of the dress to be worn on the stage by an actor or actress.50. The concluding sentence“chances like this happen once in a blue moon” means _.A. this is a highly profitable chanceB. this is something highly possibleC. this is something which happens once in whileD. this is very rare chancePassage 4We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” “And Paulwhy didnt I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, its too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we dont really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “Youre a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “Youre a lucky guy. ” or “Youre a lucky gal.”, thats being friendly. But“lucky dog”? Theres a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesnt think you deserve your luck. “Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isnt important. Its telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you havent got a date for Saturday night. How can you tell the real meaning behind someones words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake. 51. When the writer recalls the things that happened between him and his friends, he _.A. feels happy, thinking of how nice his friends were to himB. feels he may not have“read” his friends true feelings correctly C. thinks it was a mistake to view Jim as a friend D. is sorry that his friends let him down 52. By saying “Youre a lucky dog.” the speaker _.A. is just being friendly B. expresses the same meaning as “Youre a lucky guy.” or “Youre a lucky gal.” C. is humorous to apply the word “dog” to people D. has a hidden jealous feeling behind the words 53. In listening to a person, the important thing is _.A. to notice his tone, his posture, and the look in his eyesB. to listen to how he pronounces his words C. to check his words against his manner, his tone of voice, and his posture D. not to believe what he says 54. If you followed the advice of the writer, you would _.A. weigh carefully what people say to determine their real meaning B. get along well with people C. trust what other people say D. have no doubts about our friends 55. This passage tries to tell you how to _.A. avoid mistakes about both money and people B. say things elegantly C. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you D. keep people friendly without trusting them Part ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.
