⑵Answer ㈠:

1.    According to the author the study of starbursts is easier in dwarf galaxies because
                  
      1.  they are relatively stable and have changed little since their inception.
      2.  their radiations are easier to isolate in these galaxies
      3.  they are smaller and composed of relatively fewer stars.
      4.  they alone contain answers to questions about the mechanics of star formation.
      5.  starbursts are more intense and frequent in these galaxies
                  
Answer : 3
                  
Explanation :
                    
Thelast sentence of the passage holds the answer to this question. Thisstates clearly dwarf galaxies hold fewer stars and so a study of thesewill yield an answer to many of the astrologers' questions. So option 3is the correct answer.                  2.   Astronomers according to the author, are keen to study starbursts because   (B)  (C)  (D)  (E)
                  
      1.  starbursts are intriguing phenomena that have not yet been studied.
      2.  this is the process by which star formation takes place.
      3.  it could contain evidence of the big bang.
      4.  the radiations from these could be potentially useful to humans.
      5.  these could help understand how early galaxies were formed.
                  
Answer : 5
                  
Explanation :
                    
Thefirst sentence of the last paragraph states clearly that starburstsplay an important role in galactic evolution and formation of starclusters. Option 5 gives us the correct answer.
                  3.   To support the statement that starbursts are a short-lived stage, the author,
      1.  points to data from astronomical observations
      2.  argues that it is a logical consequence of the rapid rate of star formation
      3.  proves they are dominated by hot young stars
      4.  argues that a longer stage cannot be materially sustained.
      5.  Cites the work of various astronomers.
Answer : 4
                  
Explanation :

Thethird sentence of the third paragraph gives us a reason for this: theauthor states that the galaxies would have run out of the gas out ofwhich stars are made if they had been going on for a longer period. Sooption 4 is the correct answer.


⑶Answer ㈡:

1.   The primary purpose of the passage is to
                  
      1.  makeout a strong case for the superiority of the imperial system ofmeasurement over the metric system on the grounds of accuracy
      2.  makea detailed list of all the devices that are in general use today forthe accurate measurement of objects, distances and speeds
      3.  briefly explain the importance, function, systems and types of measurements that are used in everyday life.
      4.  show the various means that were employed by people after the 1200s to measure.
      5.  describe the various situations in which human beings need to measure and count in their everyday activities.
                  
                  Answer : 3
                  
Explanation :
                    
Inthis passage, the author mainly talks about measurement, its importancein our lives, the daily usage of it. So the answer is option 3.                  2.   According to the passage, in order to measure anything
                        1.  it is necessary both to count and use devices within either system of measurement
      2.  a unit of one object has to be contrasted with a unit of another object
      3.  a scale called the micrometer calliper has to be used with great precision
      4.  it is first necessary to accept that all measurements are only approximations
      5.  both a number and a unit of measurement are required
                  
Answer : 5
                  
Explanation :
                    
Line 1 of para four clearly directly gives the answer. The correct answer is option 5.
                  3.   Most measurement is only an approximation because
                  
      1.  it involves both a number and a unit and it is unlikely that both of them can be accurate enough
      2.  the object being measured is likely to fall between the calibrations of the scale or device  that is used to measure
      3.  the devices used to measure objects cannot be made to fit all the possible objects that have to be measured accurately
      4.  accuratemeasurement in almost all the cases involve the use of powerful opticalinstruments like magnifying glasses which are not commonly available
      5.  most people who measure are not trained in the use of numbers, units and devices used to measure objects
                  
Answer : 2
                  
Explanation :
                    
The answer is the second line of para 7. It is a direct answer. The correct choice is therefore option 2.

⑵Sample(样例)


To trace mental health and depression to any single factor would be to miss the wood for the trees. Without necessarily disputing the accuracy of the discovery, it may be said that the scientists have tried only to establish a link between depression and saturated fat. Nowhere does the excerpt say that increased consumption of omega-3 fatty acids is a guarantee against depression.

Agreed that our ancestors, who ate less saturated fat and more polyunsaturated fat, including omega-3 fatty acids, were much less likely to suffer from depression than those of the present generation are. But our ancestors enjoyed certain other advantages not available to the modern American.

For instance, external factors and influences induce depression as surely as, and much faster than, the kind of food one eats does. For instance, an unemployed person cannot be saved from bouts of depression just through being fed more polyunsaturated fat, including omega-3 fatty acids.

The food one eats certainly influences one's mood, but so do several external factors. During the time of our ancestors there was little atmospheric pollution that is a very potent source of depression today. Besides, the population was infinitely smaller than it now is, and that helped greater social interaction than is possible at present when the world has more people than it can accommodate.

The latter fact is a definite source of depression induced by uncertainty about food, clothing and shelter, among other necessities of life. When there are 100 aspirants for one job, depression is bound to set in even if all of them have consumed less saturated fat. Besides, with the proliferation of population familial responsibilities and worries have multiplied, and that is the surest recipe imaginable for bouts of depression. It is true that the Japanese and the Taiwanese consume large quantities of fish. But even they would be rash to attribute lower rates of depression to that one factor. The lifestyle, the social milieu and the ethos of a people combine to insure that fewer people are depressed at fewer times than mere consumption of less saturated fat.

The Japanese, for instance, are too neurotically preoccupied with work and profits to have time to feel depressed. But even among them, those who fail to make the grade, those who are not the best, are overcome by depression and commit hara-kiri. Consumption of large quantities of fish does not come in their way.

Therefore, while increased consumption of fish, omega-3 fatty acids and less saturated fat might help physical health and mental hygiene, that alone cannot claim all the credit for lower rates of depression, if not for its disappearance.

--[美]奥利佛·文德尔·荷默斯

　　in this symposium:此刻

　　At this timegoal: n.目的,目标

　　standstill: n.停止

In this symposium, better is it to only sit in silence. To express one's feelings as the end draws near is too
intimate a task. That I would mention only one thought that comes to me as a listener-in: the riders in a race do
not stop short when they reach the goal, there is a little finishing canter before coming to a standstill, there
is time to hear the kind voice of friends, and to say to oneself, the work is done. But just as one says that, the
answer comes, the race is over, but the work never is done while the power to work remains. The canter that
brings you to a standstill need not be only coming to rest; it cannot be while you still live. But to live is to
function, that is all there is in living. So I end with a land from a Latin voice: death, death, clutches my ear,
and says, live, I am coming.--By Oliver Wendell Holmes

ministered on to , but to minister to ourselves, to our fellow men.
幸福并不在于单纯的占有金钱，幸福还在于取得成功后的喜悦，在于创造努力时的激情。务必不能再忘记劳动带来的喜悦和激励，

服务的话，那么，我们付出的代价是完全值得的。
