阅读理解。     Attitude is an internal (内在的) state that influences the choices of personal action made by the individual
(个人). Some researchers consider that attitudes come from differences between beliefs and ideas; others
believe that attitudes come from emotional states. Here, we focus on the effects of attitudes upon behavior,
that is, upon the choices of action made by the individual.
     The kinds of actions taken by human beings are obviously influenced greatly by attitudes. Whether one
listens to classical music or rock, whether one obeys the speed limit while driving, whether one encourages
one"s husband or wife to express his or her own ideas-all are influenced by attitudes. These internal states
are acquired (获得) throughout life from situations one is faced with in the home, in the streets, and in the
school.
     Of course, the course of action chosen by an individual in any situation will be largely determined by the
particulars of that situation. An individual who has a strong attitude of obeying laws may drive too fast when
he is in a hurry and no police cars in sight. A child who has a strong attitude of honesty may steal a penny
when she thinks no one will notice, But the internal state which remains unchanged over a period of time,
and which makes the individual behave regularly in a variety of situations, is what is meant by an attitude.
     Attitudes are learned in a variety of ways. They can result from single incidents, as when an attitude
toward snakes is acquired by an experience in childhood at the sudden movement of a snake. They can
result from the individual"s experiences of success and pleasure, as when someone acquires a positive
attitude toward doing crossword puzzles by being able to complete some of them, And frequently, they are
learned by copying other people"s behavior, as when a child learns how to behave toward foreigners by
observing the actions of his parents. Regardless of these differences, there is something in common in the
learning and modification (修正)of attitudes. 1. According to the passage, attitudes ____. A. come from different situations in one"s life
B. are largely affected by one"s behavior
C. remain unchanged in one"s daily life
D. could be chosen according to one"s will 2. The author uses the examples in Paragraph 3 to show _____. A. people often make mistakes when they are not noticed
B. people with good attitudes may sometimes do bad deeds
C. particulars of a situation may influence an individual"s action
D. an individual may change his or her attitude fairly easily 3. Which of the following is TRUE about the learning of attitudes? A. Attitudes are only learned through one"s success.
B. Attitudes learned in danger will last longer.
C. Copying others behavior is not a good idea.
D. Attitudes can be learned from one"s parents. 4. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Differences of Attitudes.
B. Nature of Attitude.
C. Choices of Attitudes.
D. Modification of Attitude.

are the sort of person who feels there"s never anything to do during the school holidays.
     The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club.    2   Pets, clothes, pop music or
dancing groups, sports, making things? The list is endless.
     Next you need some friends to be in your club with you.   3   All you need is three or four other people
who are interested in the same thing as you.
         4    You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every
name you can think up. That"ll keep you busy for ages.
     At your first meeting you should make up a rule book. And the first rule should be no grown-ups or
little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret!
     Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards. These are very important and
again you can speed a lot of time making them.    5    Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself?
That will make the membership card really look like it.

     There is a tendency to think of each of the arts as a separate area of activity. Many artists,    1  , would
prove that there has always been a warm relationship between the various areas of human activity.   2  , in
the late nineteenth century the connections between music and painting were particularly   3  . Artists were
invited to design clothes and settings for operas and ballets, but sometimes it was the musicians who were
inspired (给…以灵感) by the work of contemporary painters. Of the musical compositions that were
considered as   4   to the visual arts, perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky"s Pictures at an Exhibition.
     Mussorgsky composed the piece in 1874 after the death, at the age of 39, of the artist victor Hartmann. 
  5   their friendship had not been a particularly long-lasting one, Mussorgsky was shocked by Hartmann"s
   6   death. The following year the critic, Vladimir Stasuv, who decided to hold an exhibition of Hartmann"s
work, suggested that Mussorgsky try to   7   his grief by writing something in memory of Hartmann.
     The exhibition served as Mussorgsky"s inspiration. The ten pieces that made up Pictures at an Exhibition
are intended as   8   rather than representations of the paintings in the exhibition. Between each is a promenade
(舞曲中的行进),   9   the composer walks from one painting to another. The music is sometimes witty and
playful, sometimes almost alarming and frightening. Through a range of surprising   10  . Mussorgsky
manages to convey the spirit of the artist and his work.

     You either have it, or you don"t- a sense of direction, that is. But why is it that some people could find their
way across the Sahara without a map, while others can lose themselves in the next street?
     Scientists say we"re all born with a sense of direction, but it is not properly understood how it works. One
theory is that people with a good sense of direction have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being
carried out at Liverpool University supports this idea and suggests that if we don"t use it, we lose it.
     "Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around. Says Jim Martland, Research Director of the project." However, if they are not allowed out alone or are taken everywhere by car, they never develop
the skills."
     Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to improve their sense of
direction. He makes the following suggestions:
     If you are using a map, turn it so it relates to the way you are facing.
     If you leave your bike in a strange place, put it near something like a big stone or a tree. Note landmarks on
the route as you go away from your bike. When you return, go back along the same route.
     Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a town. Streams, or walls in the
countryside to guide you. Count your steps so that you know how far you have gone and note any landmarks
such as tower blocks or hills which can help to find out where you are. Now you need never get lost again!
1. Scientists believe that ______.
A. some babies are born with a sense of direction
B. people learn a sense of direction as they grow older
C. people never lose their sense of direction
D. everybody possesses a sense of direction from birth
2. What is true of seven-year-old children according to the passage?
A. They never have a sense of direction without maps.
B. They should never be allowed out alone if they lack a sense of direction.
C. They have a sense of direction and can find their way around.
D. They can develop a good sense or direction if they are driven around in a car.
3. If you leave your bike in a strange place, you should ______.
A. tie it to a tree so as to present it from being stolen.
B. draw a map of the route to help remember where it is.
C. avoid taking the same route when you come back to it.
D. remember something easily recognized on the route.
4. According to the passage, the best way to find your way around is to ______.
A. ask policemen for directions.
B. use walls, streams and streets to guide yourself.
C. remember your route by looking out for steps and stairs.
D. count the number of landmarks that you see.

     Equipped only with a pair of binoculars (双筒望远镜) and ready to spend long hours waiting in all weathers
for a precious glance of a rare bullfinch (红腹灰雀), Britain"s birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport. But new figures show bird-watching is fast becoming a popular pastime, with almost three million of us absorbed in our fluttering feathered friends.
     Devoted birdwatchers, those prepared to travel thousands of miles for sighting of a rare Siberian bird, are
fast being joined by a new breed of follower whose interest is satiated by watching a few finches (雀科鸣鸟)
on a Sunday walk or putting up a bird-box in the back garden.
     "Almost three million UK birdwatchers is certainly possible if you include everyone with only a casual
interest," Stephen Moss said in his newly published book.-A bird in the Bush: a Social History of Birdwatching
- which records the pursuit from the rich Victorian Englishman"s love of shooting rare birds to the less
offensive observational tendencies of birdwatchers today.
     Television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend. Last summer, BBC 2"s Britain Goes
Wild was a surprise success. It pulled in three million views and led to bird-houses selling out across the UK as
45,000 people promised to put up a box. Birdwatchers networking system first came to the attention of the
nation in 1989, when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first Vermivora chrysoptera-a golden-winged songbird
from North America-to be seen in Britain. He put a message out on the network service Birdline, and the next
day 3,000 birdwatchers proved the full pull of a truly rare bird as they visited the Tesco car park in Kent.,
where it had settled. Today, birdwatchers can log on to www.birdline.co.uk or have news of the latest sighting
texted to their phones.
      "Multimillion-pound spending on binoculars, bird food and boxes point to the increasing numbers of
birdwatchers." Said David Croack, the editor of Bird Watching magazine"The number of people involved is so
big that they have great potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment."
1. The word "satiated" in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by "______".
A. affected
B. shared
C. satisfied
D. narrowed
2. What happened after the message of seeing a Vermivora Chrysoptera was put on the network?
A. Birdwatchers helped the rare bird settle in Kent.
B. Large numbers of birdwatchers went to view the bird.
C. Many birdwatchers logged on to the website for details.
D. Birdwatchers showed their determination to protect the rare bird.
3. Which of the following CANNOT be true according to the passage?
A. Television wildlife programmes started the popular pastime of birdwatching.
B. The network service has contributed to the rapid development of birdwatching.
C. Birdwatching in Britain was long considered a sport with a small group of followers.
D. The current situation of birdwatching may promote the protection of the environment.
4. The passage mainly tells us about _______ in UK.
A. the history of birdwatching.
B. a growing passion for birdwatching
C. the impact of media on birdwatching
D. birdwatching as a popular expensive sport
