The building of the Bastille had been started in 1370 under Charles V. By the seventeenth century it had stopped to be important for defense. Cardinal Richelieu turned it into a prison. It was not an ordinary prison to punish common crimes. Its huge doors closed only on enemies of the King. The Bastilles workings were secret. Prisoners were taken to it in closed vehicles. Soldiers on guard duty had to stand with their faces to the wall. No talking was allowed. Worst of all, a prisoner never knew if he would be there a day, a week, a year, or forever. Only the Kings letter could set him free.Over the years the number of arrests by Kings letter had become fewer. By the time of its fall, most of the prisoners were writers who had written against the corruptions (贪污腐败) of the government. Voltaire, the famous French writer, spent a year there in 1717-1718, and another 12 days in 1726.For those who believed in free speech and free thinking, the Bastille stood for everything evil. The day it was captured, only seven prisoners were found inside. Still, the Bastille was hated by the people. It was a symbol of the Kings complete power.31. The Bastille became a prison _.A. since the time of Charles VB. since 1370C. in the seventeenth centuryD. since the time of Cardinal Richelieu32. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Anyone who did something wrong could find himself suddenly in the Bastille.B. The Bastille was only for those who were opposed to the King.C. Things done in the Bastille were hardly known to people outside.D. Voltaire was twice put in the Bastille.33. At the time of its fall, the Bastille housed _. A. a large number of prisonersB. a lot of writers who had been against the governmentC. some dozens of people who believed in free speech and free thinkingD. only a few prisoners34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. All prisoners in the Bastille had to stay there for life.B. Over the years the number of prisoners in the Bastille was getting bigger and bigger.C. The King could put people in or let them out of the Bastille as he wanted.D. At the time it was captured, there were so few prisoners in it that it meant little to the people.35. This passage mainly _.A. tells how the prisoners were controlled by the King B. tells how little was known about the BastilleC. shows the inner workings of the BastilleD. gives a brief history of the BastillePassage 2The resources of the library can be helpful even when we are doing something very informal, such as trying to devise (设计) a better way to measure attitudes toward music or looking for a better way to teach mathematics. The library can be equally helpful when we are doing something very formal, such as writing a dissertation (学位论文) or preparing an article for publication in a professional journal. In either case, our goal should be to use the library as a useful tool to help us understand and solve our problem.The following sections of this chapter will describe specific resources available in many libraries. In some cases you may already be aware of a resource and may use it frequently and successfully. In other cases you may be completely unfamiliar with a resource. Your goal should be to become aware of what is available and to know how to use each of these resources to help you solve the problem they are designed to solve.When educators have a piece of information that they want to share with their colleagues, they often make this information available in professional journals or at professional meetings. It would often be useful to have access to such information, and this chapter will describe the special services that enable us to locate such information.36. The library resources can be helpful when we _.A. want to find a better way to measure attitudes toward musicB. are preparing a paper for a professional journalC. are writing a dissertationD. All of the above37. The familiarity of readers with different resources _.A. is more or less the sameB. varies slightlyC. differs greatlyD. should not be different38. The author believes that _. A. library resources should be used frequently and completelyB. library resources cannot be made good use of if they are not available to usC. one is supposed to be aware of the library resources that are usually not availableD. one is supposed to have good knowledge and make good use of resources39. When educators wish to share some information with their colleagues, they often _. A. publish it in a professional journalB. get it from professional meetingsC. get access to it in the libraryD. make use of some library services40. The chapter where this passage is taken _. A. mainly deals with the ways of dissertation writingB. presents information on publishing papers in professional journalsC. introduces some library servicesD. describes some professional meetingsPassage 3What will man be like in the future in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brains capacity (容量). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that mans eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own.41. The size of mans forehead will probably grow bigger because _.A. he will use his brain more and more as time goes onB. he makes use only 20% of the brains capacityC. his brain has grown larger over the past centuriesD. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time42. What serves as the evidence that man is changing?A. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.B.
