第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Americans are proud of their variety and individuality (个性), yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of a lift operator or the uniform of a five-star general(将军).  71  .
Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professional than civilian (百姓的) clothes.People expect higher quality from a man who wears a uniform.  72   .Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform.What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a hairdresser, or a waiter to lose professional identity (职业身份) than to step out of uniform?
73  .They are often more comfortable and more lasting than civilian clothes.
Among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them.Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement.  74  .
75  .Though they are long-lasting, often their initial(最初的) expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes.Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.
A.Americans think highly of uniforms .
B.Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?
C.When people wear the same uniforms, they are likely to think, speak, and act similarly on the job at least.
D.Uniforms also have many practical good points

One day a young man called Jim was told to take the  21  examination the next day. He was   22   so much that he couldn’t get to sleep. He wouldn’t join the army because he was in love with a beautiful girl. “If only I could find a   23   to make the doctor believe there is something    24  with my body,” he thought and thought. Suddenly, a good idea crossed his mind.
The next morning Jim got to the   25   on time and was led into a large room. He hurriedly found a seat to sit down and took out an out-of-date newspaper,   26   to read it. Soon it was his turn to be examined. When he came up to the doctor, the old man took a quick and sharp look at him. Then in a   27   he ordered Jim to take off his clothes, go straight to a corner and sit down on a chair there. No sooner had he seated himself on the chair than he heard the doctor murmuring to his assistant: “Finished! The boy is  28   up to the standard.”
“How can you draw such a   29   like that before you give me a  30  check? Jim shouted at the doctor.
“Don’t be impetuous(冲动), young man! Put on your clothes, and then I’ll  31   it to you,” the doctor said   32  .“You said we didn’t examine you carefully, but I don’t think it
33   for us to do that. When I told you in a low voice to take off your clothes, you did it as I told you. It shows you have good  34  . When you were asked to go and sit on the chair, you did so, too. It shows you can see any subject within a certain distance.   35  , you were found reading the newspaper just now, and we are certain you are a man of intelligence.
36 , you’re perfect in mind and body.” 
Half a year later, Jim was killed on the battlefield. At the news his girlfriend nearly went
37  . She kept weeping. “Don’t be like that, my dear.” It was an old man’s  38   voice. “Your Jim died a real man. He   39  his life to the people all over the world. It is right that we should be proud of him…” Saying this, the old man, her father, was choked(哽咽). His only   40   was that he had never had Jim know who he was. This old man was the medical officer who had given Jim the health check.

The dog that gave us the most trouble was a beagle (猎兔犬) named Murphy.As far as I’m concerned, the first thing he did wrong was to turn into a beagle.I had seen him bounding around on the other side of a pet-shop window, and I went in and asked the man, “How much is that adorable fox terrier (小猎狗) in the window?” Did he say “That adorable fox terrier is a beagle”? No, he said, “Ten dollars, lady.” Now, I don’t mean to say one word against beagles.They have rights just like other people.But it is a bit of a shock when you bring home a small ball of fluff (绒毛) in a shoebox, and three weeks later it’s as long as the sofa.
Murphy was the first dog I ever trained personally, and I was delighted at the enthusiasm with which he took to the newspaper.It was some time later that we discovered, to our horror, that—like so many dogs—he had grasped the letter but not the spirit of the thing.Until the very end of his days he felt a real sense of duty whenever he saw a newspaper—any newspaper—and it didn’t matter where it was.I can’t bring myself to go into the details, except to mention that we were finally forced to keep all the papers in the bottom of the icebox.
He had another habit that used to leave us open to a certain amount of criticism from our friends.He never climbed up on beds or chairs or sofas.But he always sat on top of the piano.In the beginning we used to try to pull him off.But after a few noisy fights in which he knocked a picture off the wall, scratched the piano, and smashed a lamp, we just gave in—only to discover that he hopped up and down as skillfully as a ballet dancer.
Nowadays if I go anywhere, I just ask if they have a dog.If they do, I say, “Maybe I’d better keep away from it—I have bad allergy.” This sometimes annoys the host.But it works.It really works.
56.The writer uses a hyperbole (夸张) in Paragraph 1 to suggest that the dog grew  _____________.
A.surprisingly lovable B.comfortable in the house
C.too fierce to tolerate D.larger than expected
57.Which sentence shows the author’s inability to train Murphy?
A.I had seen him bounding around on the other side of a pet-shop window.
B.We were finally forced to keep all the papers in the bottom of the icebox.
C.He never climbed up on beds or chairs.
D.Nowadays if I go anywhere, I just ask if they have a dog.
58.What can you infer from the second paragraph?
A.The writer tried to train Murphy to fetch newspapers but in vain.
B.Like other dogs, Murphy hated newspapers.
C.Murphy learned to help the writer clean the papers.
D.Murphy liked fetching letters rather than newspapers.
59.Which can be the best title of the passage?
A.Murphy—My Favorite Dog    B.Murphy—An Adorable Dog
C.Murphy Gave Me Trouble      D.Murphy Turned Into A Beagle

Dr.Sylvia Earle wants you to stop eating fish.It’s not because fish are endangered, though wild fish stocks in many oceans are very low.It’s not because they’re bad for you, though fish in many areas are exposed to poisonous substances in the water.It’s because they’re smart.
“Fish are sensitive, they have personalities,” says the marine biologist.For Earle, eating a fish would be like eating a dog or a cat.“I would never eat anyone I know personally.”
There’s a lot more to fish than meets the eye: they talk to each other, they like to be touched, and they engage in behavior that can seem very human.They can remember things and learn from experience.Earle and a growing number of animal rights activists see these as strong arguments against eating fish altogether.
The activists also point out that fish feel pain and fish suffer horribly on their way from the sea to the supermarket.“While it may seem obvious that fish are able to feel pain, like every other animal, some people think of fish as swimming vegetables,” says Dr.Lynne Sneddon.“Really, it’s kind of a moral question.Is the enjoyment you get from fishing (or eating fish) more important than the pain of the fish?”
Fishermen and (fried) fish lovers are doubtful.“I’ve never seen a smart fish,” says Marie Swaringen as she finishes off a plate of fish at a Seattle seafood restaurant.“If they were very smart,
they wouldn’t get caught.”
“For years, everyone’s been telling us to eat fish because it’s so good for us,” says another diner.“Now I’ve got to feel guilty while I’m eating my fish? What are they going to think of next? Don’t eat salad because cucumbers have feelings?”
64.Dr.Sylvia Earle discourage people from eating fish because _____________.
A.there are not that many wild fish in the ocean
B.fish actually are sensitive and have personalities
C.some ocean fish contain poisonous substances
D.fish are like dogs or cats that people know personally
65.We can infer from the passage that _____________.
A.all people don’t agree with the idea to stop eating fish
B.people will be persuaded not to eat fish in the future
C.stopping eating fish will lead to people’s not eating vegetables
D.we shouldn’t care too much about the feeling of fish
66.By saying “There’s a lot more to fish than meets the eye,” the writer means ____________.
A.there are far more fish than other animals in the world
B.there are more fish in the world than people can see
C.people can see more fish if they pay more attention
D.fish are not that simple as they appear to people’s eyes
67.What is the writer’s attitude towards people eating fish?
A.Neutral.    B.Indifferent.      C.Approving.      D.Opposed.
