第1题:
Which of the following is closest in meaning to the statement “There are various... to do so” (Line 17-20)?
[A] Principles of history and philosophy are hard to deal with.
[B] People like to see what other people do for their own model.
[C] The educated are more susceptible to errors in their daily life.
[D] That everyone does the same may not prove they are all right.
本题考查句意的理解。这是第三段的第一句话,其结构颇为复杂,主干成分是There are various topics。especially in history, law, philosophy做状语,意为“尤其是在历史、法律、哲学方面”。Where even the educated people...to do so部分做定语修饰various topics。这个定语从句也是一个复合句,主干成分是even the educated people can hardly be brought to see,句中的 we live among部分做定语修饰the educated people。See后是that引导的宾语从句,其主干结构是the cause why... is by no means necessarily a reason why...,意为“...的原因决不一定非是...的理由”。其中又包含了两个由why引导的定语从句,分别修饰the cause和the reason。整个句子的大意是:对于很多话题,尤其是涉及到历史,法律和哲学方面的话题,即使是我们中间受过教育的人也很难认识到人们持有某种观念或形成某种习俗的缘由决不一定是他们这样做的理由。换言之,很多人持有的观念或形成的习俗不是必然的。再看该句的上文,即第二段末句提到,有一种谬论深深植根于人类的头脑中,认为大家都说的话肯定是真的,大家都做的事肯定是对的。可见,三段首句是延续二段末句的话题展开论述,其中hold an opinion和practise a custom对应上文中的what everybody says和what everybody does。既然是谬论,当然是不合理的。因此三段首句仍在说明:大家共有的或已有的观点和做法不一定合理。[D]项为正确答案。
在文中,作者提到历史、哲学,是为了说明人们这些方面形成的观点和形成的习俗,并未涉及它们本身的原则处理问题,所以[A]项错误,文中提到,受教育的人也免不了和常人一样有这样错误的认识,但不是更容易受错误影响,[C]项不正确。[B]项与文章内容无关。

第8题:
A dream is one kind of experience.It seems as real as something that actually happens; in it the dreamer takes actions and reacts.During dreams the body is asleep but the thinking part of the brain is wide awake.In fact, it is more active than it sometimes is when the body is awake.
One group of researchers decided to see what would happen if they stopped people from dreaming.As soon as the electroencephalograph (脑电图仪) registered a dream pattern, researchers woke the dreamer.They did this all night for several nights, every time the person started to dream.
The experiment revealed that people who were unable to dream became nervous, easily upset, and hungrier.As soon as they were able to sleep without interruptions they lost their nervousness and became normal again; however, they then had more dreams than usual.It was as if they were catching up on their dreams.
To check these findings, the researchers carried on a control experiment.Again they woke people during the night, but during non-dreaming periods.These people did not change their daytime behavior.And when they were allowed to sleep without interruptions (打断), the number of their dreams did not increase.
Experiments like these have caused scientists to ask if dreams serve a purpose.Researchers know, for example, that some people who go for days without sleep will suffer from hallucinations (幻觉).Certain people even begin to show signs of mental illness.Some researchers believe that people become this way because they cannot have their usual numbers of dreams.According to this theory dreaming helps people to lead normal lives.
