第二部分 閱讀理解（第一節(jié)共10小題，第二節(jié)5小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）

第一節(jié)

A

The former President Bush had suggested increasing the study of foreign languages in American schools.

The new plan was called the National Security Language Initiative. It would involve the departments of State， Education and Defense， and the director of National Intelligence.

The plan called for teaching foreign languages to more children， as early as the age of four. It also aimed to increase foreign—language instruction in colleges and graduate schools. The hope was to bring more foreign—language speakers into government service.

And it called for expanding an effort to increase the number of military officers who spoke foreign languages.

Most of the new teaching would be in languages not widely taught in American schools. These include Arabic， Chinese， Farsi， Hindi and Russian.

Administration officials would ask for 114 million dollars to start the program. They said too many American children learned only English. They said only 44 percent of American high school students took any foreign language， and 70 percent of those were learning Spanish.

Officials said money would be used to help foreign—language students pay for their education in exchange for future service. The plan also called for sending more American students to other countries for part of their college studies. And it called for bringing more foreign language teaching assistants to the United States.

Officials said the United States did not have enough foreign—language teachers. Research showed that children had an easier time than adults in learning languages. Yet less than one—third of American elementary schools taught languages other than English. And experts said most of these schools just taught the basics， not how to speak a foreign language well.

President Bush said America needed intelligence officers who could understand languages like Arabic， Farsi or Urdu. But he said that was not the only reason for the program. He said it would also show that Americans care enough about other cultures to learn to speak their languages.

36. Which of the following was a purpose of the former President Bush’s to suggest increasing the study of foreign languages？

A. To teach foreign languages to more school children.

B. Not to learn about other cultures.

C. To increase the number of economic officers who spoke foreign languages.

D. To help foreign—language students pay for their education in exchange for future service.

37. From the passage， we can conclude that American students ___ .

A. had a poor basic knowledge of foreign languages

B. could speak foreign languages well

C. were not good at speaking foreign languages

D. learned several foreign languages at school

38. The passage seems to ___ .

A. analyze a common problem

B. report a new plan

C. explain the reason for a plan

D. make a suggestion

B

Do you know about a series of books that say they are “for dummies”？ These American self—help books have been translated into more than thirty—nine languages including Chinese， Arabic， Russian， French， German， Greek and Spanish.

“Dummy” is a word for a stupid person. The Dummies books are not really for stupid people. They are designed to show people how to do something they may never have tried before， like painting a house or learning a language. The books all say in a funny way that they are for dummies， such as World History for Dummies， Rabbits for Dummies， Chinese Cooking for Dummies， and Wedding Planning for Dummies. The first such book， DOS for Dummies， was published in 1991. It helped people learn how to use the DOS operating system of computers’. Since then， more than one hundred fifty million Dummies books have been sold.

The dummies.com website explains the ideas behind the books. It says that they show that people can be taught to do anything. First they can make fun of ideas that are difficult to understand. Then they show how the information can be interesting and easy. The publishers say that the books do not provide more information than necessary.

A Completely Different Camel. The New York Times announced today that the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company is introducing a new variety of Camel cigarettes designed for female smokers. The new Camel No.9 comes in a pretty black box with pink and light blue accents（強調）. Camel has traditionally been thought of as a “male” cigarette. With this new marketing plan， Reynolds declare that they are attempting to capture（搶奪）some of the female smokers who usually buy cigarettes like Virginia Slims and similar types.

Pretty in Pink. The packages are very pretty. With a pink camel in the middle of the black box， and even a pink cover， they shout “cool and style” to any young woman walking by looking for something to match her new pink Razor phone. The ad is equally eye—catching， with the boxes surrounded by flowers against a watercolor background. Yes， they did a nice job. But don’t let anyone fool you for one minute. These are not being packaged for thirty and forty—year—old women. They are clearly for a much younger crowd.

How You Can Help. So what about our girls？ How do we get them to see this not as another cool new decoration for their purse， but as the cunning（狡猾的）control of their money and their health that it truly is？ The answer is education. Talk with girls about how product packaging， advertising， and promotions can change the appearance and effect of almost any product. Discuss the difference between style and material. Explain to them how and why they are targeted， and have them search for and point out examples of this targeting as they meet them. Make sure girls know about the addiction and health risks related to cigarettes， and set a good example.

第二節(jié) 下面文章中有5處（第46～50題）需要添加小標題。請從以下選項（A、B、C、D、E和F）中選出符合各段意思的小標題。選項中有一項是多余選項。

A. There are few statues in the Middle East.

B. Art is a good means for people to know about religions.

C. Artists express their feelings and opinions in their works.

D. People know more about our culture through learning art history.

E. Art is more objective than history itself.

F. Art history provides information of different places and people.

46. _______________

A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics， economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects（反映）not only the political values of a people， but also religious beliefs， emotions， and psychology.

47. _______________

In addition， information about the daily activities of our ancestors（祖先）—or of people very different from our own —can be provided by art. In short， art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place， and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.

48. _______________

In history books， objective information about the political life of a country is presented； that is， facts about politics are given， but opinions are not expressed. Art， on the other hand， is subjective： it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist. In his well—known painting The Third of May 1808， he criticized the Spanish government for its misuse of power over people. Over a hundred years later， symbolic images were used in Pablo Picasso’s Guernica to express the horror of war. Meanwhile， on another continent， the powerful paintings of Diego Rivera， Jose Clemente Orozco， and David Alfaro Siqueiros—as well as the works of Alfredo Ramos Martinez —depicted（描繪）these Mexican artists’ deep anger and sadness about social problems.

49. _______________

In the same way， art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe， religious art was almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that depicted people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn’t read， they could still understand biblical stories in the pictures on church walls.

50. _______________

By contrast， one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was （and still is） its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues are impure. That’s why no figures can be found in or around places of interest in these regions.
