　　大学英语六级阅读提分练习与答案：

　　Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who comes in contact with them. Their values—this can't be repeated too often—are not necessarily our values. Physical comfort, cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important things. The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone in bed, taking no notice of the worms. But is it interfering with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying this concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old.

　　Indeed, the old can be easily hurt or harmed. The body is like a car, it needs more mechanical maintenance as it gets older. You can carry this comparison right through to the provision of spare parts. But never forget that such operations are painful experiences, however good the results. And at what point should you cease to treat the old body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by pursuing the development of drugs to excite the forgetful old mind and to activate(激活) the old body, knowing that it is designed to die? You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long as they can see the technical opportunities, they will feel bound to give them a try, on the principle that while there's life, there's hope.

　　When you talk to the old people, however, you are forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant depends less on money or on health than it does on your ability to have fun.

　　A. very old people enjoy living with their relatives

　　B. social services have nothing to do with very old people

　　C. very old people would like to live alone so that they can have more personal freedom

　　A. health and safety are more important than personal freedom

　　B. personal freedom is more important than health and safety

　　C. old people should keep their rooms clean

　　3. In the author's opinion, ______.

　　A. the human body can't be compared to a car

　　B. the older a person, the more care he needs

　　C. too much emphasis has been put on old people's values

　　D. it is easy to provide spare parts for old people

　　4. The word "it" in the last paragraph refers to______.

　　A. the conclusion you have come to B. your talk to the old people

　　C. whether age is happy or unpleasant D. one's money or one's health

　　5. The author thinks that______.

　　A. medical decisions for old people should be left to the doctors

　　B. old people can enjoy a happy life only if they are very rich

　　大学英语六级阅读提分练习与答案：

　　The process of perceiving others is rarely translated (to ourselves or others) into cold, objective terms. "She was 5 feet 8 inches tall, had fair hair, and wore a colored skirt. " More often, we try to get inside the other person to pinpoint (强调 ) his or her attitudes, emotions, motivations, abilities, ideas, and characters. Furthermore, we sometimes behave as if we can accomplish this difficult job very quickly—perhaps with a two-second glance.

　　ways. Berger suggests several methods for reducing uncertainties about others; who are known to you so you can compare the observed person's behavior with the known others' behavior, observing a person in a situation where social behavior is relatively unrestrained or where a wide variety of behavioral responses are called for, deliberately structuring the physical or social environment so as to observe the person's responses to specific stimuli (刺激因素) , asking people who have had or have frequent contact with the person about him or her, and using various strategies in face-to-face interaction to uncover information about another person—question, self-disclosures, and so on.

　　Getting to know someone is a never-ending task, largely because people are constantly changing and the methods we use to obtain information are often imprecise. You may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him. If we accept the idea that we won't ever fully know another person, it enables us to deal more easily with those things that get in the way of accurate knowledge such as secrets and deceptions. It will also keep us from being too surprised or shocked by seemingly inconsistent behavior. Ironically, those things that keep us from knowing another person too well(e. g. secrets and deceptions) may be just as important to the development of a satisfying relationship as those things that enable us to obtain accurate knowledge about a person (e. g. disclosures and truthful statement).

　　1. According to the passage, if we perceive a person, we are likely to be interested in

　　A. what he wears B. how tall he is

　　C. how happy he is D. what color he dyes his hair

　　2. Some people are often surprised by what other people do. According to Berger, that is mainly because_______.

　　A. some people are more emotional than others

　　B. some people are not aware of the fact that we will never completely know another person

　　C. some people are sensitive enough to sense the change of other people's attitudes

　　D. some people choose to keep to themselves

　　3. We may have known someone for ten years and still know very little about him because_______.

　　A. we don't accept the idea that we might never fully know another person

　　B. we often get information in a casual and inexact way

　　C. we pay more attention to other people's motivations and emotions

　　D. we often have face-to-face conversation with him

　　4. There are things that we find preventing us from knowing others. These things are

　　A. disclosures B. deceptions

　　C. stimuli D. interactions

　　5. This passage mainly concerns_______.

　　A. the relationship between people B. the perception of other people

　　C. secrets and deceptions of people D. people's attitudes and characters
