If someone tells you he fought in the Swiss Navy and speaks Swiss, don't believe a word he says. Switzerland is a landlocked (内陆的) nation. It hasn't gone to war in over a century. And there is no such thing as the Swiss language.
Switzerland is located among the highest mountains of Western Europe. The Aare River flows in the north and the Rhone River cuts through the south. Many beautiful lakes serve as tourist attractions.
More than 6,300,000 people live in Switzerland. The national languages are German, French, and Italian. About 70% of the people speak German. Nearly everyone speaks at least two of the national languages. About 49% of the country is Roman Catholic, and 48% is Protestant. Zurich is the largest city with over 375,000 people. Bern, the capital, has a population of about 145,000. The city of Geneva is famous, and the Red Cross was founded there.
(82)The Swiss have a 99% literacy rate, which means that 99% of the people can read and write. Many children from other nations enroll in Swiss schools. The Swiss have a high standard of living. Foreign residents, who represent 20% of all workers, are willing to take the lower paying jobs that the Swiss do not apply for.
The nation is a federation of 23 cantons. These states have a history of independence. Since 1848, they have joined to form a common government, but they still maintain their independent Character.

There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low level of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual-the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individual is handicapped (不利的) environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.
The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. (83)When the twins were three months old, their parents died and they were placed in separate foster (抚养) homes. Peter was raised by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with fewer educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given even - opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.

11. The main idea of this passage is that ______.

A.human brains differ completely
B.the brain a person is born with determines his intelligence
C.environment is crucial in determining a person's intelligence
D.persons having identical brains will have roughly the same intelligence

A B C D

12. According to the passage, the average I.Q. is ______.

A B C D

[解析] 细节题，关键词是average，第二段最后一句话“Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average”，可以看出，平均智商是125-25=100。

13. The case history of twins appears to support the conclusion that ______.

A.individuals with identical brains are seldom tested
B.an individual's intelligence is determined only by his environment
C.lack of educational opportunities blocks the growth of intelligence
D.changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain

A B C D

[解析] 主旨大意题。

(84)Three American psychologists did a research study several years ago on what Americans value most. In the study, eighteen values were asked to put in the order of importance. The result is as follows:
1. family security　　　　　　　　　　2. a world at peace
3. freedom　　　　　　　　　　　　　　4. self-respect
5. happiness　　　　　　　　　　　　　6. wisdom
7. a sense of accomplishment　　　　　8. a comfortable life
9. true friendship　　　　　　　　　　10. salvation (拯救) in the religious
11. inner harmony　　　　　　　　　　 12. equality
13. national security　　　　　　　　14. mature love
15. a world of beauty　　　　　　　　16. pleasure
17. an exciting life　　　　　　　　　18. social recognition
Are you surprised that Americans place their values in this way? Did you think they would put their values in a different order? I would have thought love and friendship might have come higher on this list. (85)As you can see, several of these values are closely related to each other and are dependent upon each other. In other words, we cannot have family security without a world at peace and national security.
The results of the study showed that people who placed equality high up on their list of values were those who had positive attitudes towards persons of other races and who supported civil rights activity, especially the work of Martin Luther King Jr.
Another interesting finding in this study was that eleven-year-old children ranked a world of beauty 7th in importance, but fifteen-year-old children ranked a world of beauty 14th and adults ranked it 17th. Well, what does it mean? Probably it means that as people grow older and take on more responsibilities in their work and with their own families, that appreciating beauty move-back into the background of their lives. What a pity! Children have more time to enjoy beauty and Nature.
Philosophers, psychologists and religious people have always been very much concerned with values. After all, values represent what we each hold most dear to ourselves and to our society. Societies establish their own forms of government based on the collective values of the people, or at least they try to do so.

16. The best title of this passage can be ______.

A.The American People
B.Research on American Values
C.How Psychologists Do Research
D.The American Social Custom

A B C D

[解析] 主旨大意题。整篇文章是关于美国人的价值观的，全文反复出现的词就是values。

[解析] 细节题。由第二段“I would have thought love and friendship might have come higher on this list.”可以看出，作者认为爱和友谊是最重要的。

B.Psychologists got some interesting results from this study.
C.Family security and a world at peace are dependent upon each other.
D.People's concepts of values play an essential role in the formation of their government system.

A B C D

[解析] 细节题。由第三段“The results of the study showed that people who placed equality high up on their list of values were those who had positive attitudes towards persons of other races and who supported civil rights activity...”可以看出，并非所有美国人都希望种族平等。

19. The finding that children ranked "a world of beauty" higher than adults probably means that ______.

A.American schools begin to lay more emphasis as beauty education
B.American children are usually more kind-hearted than adults
C.adults have less time to enjoy beauty and Nature because of more responsibilities
D.a world of beauty would he the most important thing as people grow older

A B C D

[解析] 细节题。定位词a world of beauty，定位于第四段、由最后三句话“Probably it means that as people grow older and take on more responsibilities... Children have more time to enjoy beauty and Nature.”可以看出，成年人由于要承担更多的责任，无法像孩子一样欣赏美。

20. According to the last paragraph, values represent ______.

A.what a dear friend our society is to us
B.what our dear society can give us
C.most valuable things to us and our society
D.how we and our society hold to each other

Part Ⅴ Writing

1. Directions: In this part you are required to write an essay about the ways of finding information. You should write at least 120 words and base your composition on the outline given below.
1．There are different ways of finding information.
2．Which way(s) do you prefer? And why?

With so many new inventions in modern society, people can find information via many different ways. People can make use of older ways like radio, television and telephone. Young people prefer newer and faster means such as cell phone and Internet. Among these ways, Internet is my favorite. Internet is very convenient. On Internet, people can find information of different kinds from all sources. I can switch from political news to a job-hunting page just by one click, which saves a lot of time. I can even talk to my parents and friends on the same computer. Some people may say that there is too much false information on the Internet, which can bring bad influence to you. For me, this is not a problem. I always save some popular, reliable and respectable websites and make good use of them and care little about the attached advertisement. Small kids can also learn a lot of things from the Internet if their parents tell them how to tell good from bad.
