Part ⅡReading Comprehension(35 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
   To emphasize the stagnation ( 死氣沉沉 ) and the narrowness of the society depicted in Jane Austin’s novels is to take a narrow and mechanical view of them. Emma is not a period piece, nor is what is sometimes called a “comedy of manners”. We read it to illuminate not only the past but also the present. And we must face here in both its crudity and its important a question. Exactly what relevance and helpfulness does Emma have for us today?
    In what sense does a novel dealing skillfully and realistically with a society and its standards,which are dead and gone forever,have value in our very different world today? Stated in such term, the question itself is unsatisfactory. If Emma today captures our imagination and engages our sympathies (as, in fact, it does), then either it has some genuine value for us, or else there is something wrong with the way we give our sympathy and our values are pretty useless.
    Put this way, it is clear that anyone who enjoys Emma and then remarks “but of course it has no relevance today” is, in fact, debasing the novel, looking at it not as living, enjoyable work of art but as a mere dead picture of a past society.Such an attitude is fatal both to art and to life. It can be assumed that Emma has relevance. The helpful approach is to ask why this novel still has the power to move us today.
    What gives Emma its power to move us is the realism and depth of feeling behind Jane Austin’s attitudes. She examines with a scrupulous (小心謹慎的) yet passionate and critical precision the actual problems of her world. That this world is narrow cannot be denied, but the value of a work of art rests on the depth and truth of the experience it communicates, and such qualities cannot be identified with the breath of the work’s panorama (概觀). A conversation between two people in a grocery store may tell us more about a world war than a volume of dispatches from the front.The stilliest of all criticism of Jane Austen is the one that blames of the news papers she read. She wrote about what she genuinely understood, and artist can do more.
 21. The main idea of the passage is that          .
   A) a narrow view of Emma is natural and acceptable
   B) a novel should not depict a vanished society
   C) a good novel is an intellectual rather than an emotional experience
   D) Emma should be read with sensitivity and an open mind
22. The author would probably disagree with those critics or readers who find that the society in Jane Austin’s novel is          .
    A) unsympatheticB) uninterestingC) crudeD) authoritarian
23. The author implies that a work of art is probably judged on the basis of its          .
   A) universality of human experience truthfully recorded
   B) popularity and critical acclaim in its own age
   C) openness to varied interpretations, including seemingly contradictory ones
   D) avoidance of political and social issues of minor importance
24. It can be  inferred that the author considers the question stated and restarted in the passage to be unsatisfactory because it            .
   A) fails to assume that society and its standards are the proper concern of the novel
   B) neglects to assume that a novel is a definable art form
   C) suggest that our society and Jane Austin’s are quite different
   D) wrongly states the criteria for judging a novel’s worth
25. The author’s attitude toward someone who “enjoys Emma and then remarks ‘but of course it has no relevance today’” can best be described as one of         .
   A) amusementB) astonishmentC) disapprovalD) resignation
Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
   The media can impact current events. As a graduate student at Berkeley in the 1960s, I remember experiencing the events related to the People’s Park that were occurring on campus. Some of these events were given national media coverage in the press and on TV. I found it interesting to compare my impressions of what was going on with perceptions obtained from the news media. I could begin to see events of that time feed on news coverage.     This also provided me with some healthy insights into the distinction between these realities.
Electronic media are having a greater impact on the people’s lives every day. People gather more and more of their impressions from representations. Television and telephone communications are linking people to a global village, or what one writer calls the electronic city. Consider the information that television brings into your home every day. Consider also the contact you have with others simply by using telephone. These media extend your consciousness and your contact. for example, the video coverage of the 1989 San Francisco earthquake focused on “l(fā)ive action” such as the fires or the rescue efforts. This gave the viewer the impression of total disaster. Television coverage of the Iraqi War also developed an immediacy. CNN reported events as they happened. This coverage was distributed worldwide. Although most people were far away from these events, they developed some perception of these realities.
In 1992, many people watched in horror as riots broke out on a sad Wednesday evening in Los Angeles, seemingly fed by video coverage from helicopters. This event was triggered by verdict (裁定) in the Rodney King beating. We are now in an age where the public can have access to information that enables it to make its own judgments, and most people, who had seen the video of this beating, could not understand how the jury(陪審團)was able to acquit (宣布…無罪)the policeman involved. Media coverage of events as they occur also provides powerful feedback that influences events. This can have harmful results, as it seemed on that Wednesday night in Los Angeles. By Friday night the public got to see Rodney King on television pleading. “Can we all get along?” By Saturday, television seemed to provide positive feedback as the Los Angeles riot turned out into a rally for peace. The television showed thousands of people marching with banners and cleaning tools. Because of that, many people turned out to join the peaceful event that saw unfolding on television. The real healing, of course, will take much longer, but electronic media will continue to be a part of that process.
26. The best title for this passage is            .
 A) The 1992 Los Angeles Riots
    B) The Impact of Media on Current Events
    C) The 1989 San Francisco Earthquake and the 1992 Los Angeles Riots
    D) How media Cover Events
27. All the following statements are true EXCEPT that            .
 A) electronic media can extend one’s contact with the world
    B) those living far away from a certain event can also have some perception of realities by watching television
    C) all the events occurring on the university campus at Berkeley were given national media coverage
    D) video coverage of the 1989 San Francisco earthquake gave the viewers the impression of total disaster
28. The term“electronic city”in paragraph 2 refers to            .
 A) Los Angeles B) San Francisco C) Berkeley D) Earth
29. The 1992 Los Angeles riots broke out because            .
 A) the jury acquitted the policemen who had beaten Rodney King
    B) people can make their own judgments
    C) video coverage from helicopters had made people angry
    D) video coverage had provided powerful feedback
30. It can be inferred from the passage that.
 A) media coverage of events as they occur can have either good or bad results
    B) most people who had seen the video of the Rodney King beating agree with the verdict of the jury
    C) the 1992 Los Angeles riots lasted a whole week
    D) Rodney King seemed very angry when he appeared on television on Friday
