Mr. Smith was a wealthy industrialist , but he was not satisfied with life. He did not sleep well and his food did not agree with him. This situation lasted for some time. Finally , after several sleepless nights , he decided to consult his doctor. The doctor advised a change of surroundings. "Go abroad , " he said. "But l' m not good at foreign language ," said Mr. Smith. "It doesn't matter , " said the doctor. "It won' t hurt you to talk a little less. Go on a voyage. Take plenty of exercise. Try to reduce your weight. Avoid rich food. "
Mr. Smith went to Switzerland. He did not know French or German , and had to communicate through gestures. He attended a physical training course. The instructor made him bend his knees , swing his arms , stretch his neck and shake his head rapidly. He had to lie on the ground and raise his right and left legs alternately. After a time his muscles grew hard and firm. He forgot the financial crisis and the importance of raising the level of production. He even began to notice individual trees and individual birds.
Finally he returned home. But unfortunately his improvement was only temporary. Soon he was a normal businessman again , worried about his property , his profits , his savings , his advancement in a technological society , and things in general.

Passage Two
Public goods are those commodities from whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively exclude^. Everybody is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities, and one person' s utilization does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else * s enjoying the same good.
Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect. A flood control dam is a public goods. Once the dam is built, all persons living in the area will benefit— irrespective of their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam. The same holds true for highway signs or aids to navigation. Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from the utilization of the lighthouse for navigational purposes. National defense is another example. Even a person who voted against military expenditures or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded.
It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefits associated with public goods. There is no practicable way of charging drivers for looking at highway signs, sailors for watching a lighthouse, and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense. Because the market does not provide the necessary signals, economic analysis has to be substituted for the impersonal judgement of the marketplace.
40.What does the passage mainly discuss?A.Mechanisms for safer navigation. B.The economic structure of the marketplace.C.A specific group of commodities. D.The advantages of lowering taxes.
41.Which of the following would NOT be an example of public goods as described in the passage?A.A taxi. B. A bridge. C. A fire truck. D. A stoplight.

Passage Three
The strange close understanding between twins is a familiar enough phenomenon. Often they seem to understand each other and share each other' s emotions to such an extent that one suspects some kind of thought communication.
What is not so widely known is that this special relationship often acts as brake on twins' intellectual development. As they are partly isolated in their own private world, twins communicate less with adults than do other children. The verbal ability of a four-year-old twin is typically six months behind that of a non-twin.The problem can be particularly severe in an underprivileged family, a one-parent family for example, where there is little stimulation for children anyway.
Such children, while capable of mutual comprehension in a private language, often remain incomprehensible to outsiders and thus at a severe educational disadvantage. The only solution to the problem, cruel though it may seem, is to separate the twins thus forcing them to acquire ordinaryspeech helped and guided by sympathetic parents and teachers.
44.Many people don't know that .A.twins understand each other very wellB.twins are slow to learn to talkC.twins are unlikely to do less well at school than other children D.there exists more communication between twins
45.What's the reason for twins to be at a disadvantage in their intellectual development?A.They can only understand their own private language.B.They communicate with outsiders less than non-twins.C.There is little stimulation for them.D.Adults don't like to talk with them.
46.The author probably feels that twins' problem .A.can not be solved because solution is very cruelB.can be solved because twins will be separatedC.can not be solved unless the twins are forced to live in an ordinary environment D.can be solved if the adults communicate with them more often
47.The writer mentions all of the items listed below EXCEPT . A.twins can help each otherB.twins share each other's emotionC.twins are able to understand each other in a private languageD.twins communicate less with their parents

Passage Five
How first learned to invent words is unknown ; in other words , the origin of language is a mystery . All we really know is that men , unlike animals , somehow invented certain sounds to exores thoughts and feelings , actions and things , so that they could communicate with each other ; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent hose hounds and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken , or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words , then , lies in their associations-the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience ; and the longer we live , the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past ; and the more we read and learn , the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words Which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary (文字的) style. Above all , the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music , and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately ,or they will make our speech silly and rude.
52. The origin of language A. is a legend handed down from the past B. is ref1ected in sounds and lettersC. dates back to the prehistoric period D. is a problem not yet solved
