Ask why most people are right-handed,
and the answer might fall along the same lines as why fish school(鱼成群地游). Two
neuroscientists suggest that social pressures drive individuals to coordinate
their behaviors so that everyone in the group gets an evolutionary
edge. Approximately 85 percent of people prefer their right
hand, which is controlled by the left hemisphere of the brain. One
theorized benefit of locating a particular function in one hemisphere is that it
frees the other to deal with different tasks. But that idea does not explain
why. population-wide trends for handedness exist in the first place.
Moreover, evidence gleaned in recent years has overturned the long-held
belief that human handedness is a unique by-product of brain specialization
attributable to language. A suite of studies has revealed brain lateraliz A. it was a necessary evolutionary process B. it has something to do with human right-handedness C. they need to coordinate with other fish D. their brain function is unique

[单项选择] Passage Three
Most people would be impressed by the
high quality of medicine available to most Americans. There is a lot of
specialization, a great deal of attention to the individual, a vast amount of
advanced technical equipment, and intense effort not to make mistakes because of
the financial risk which doctors and hospitals must face in the courts if they
handle things badly. But the Americans are in a mess. The
problem is the way in which health care is organized and financed. Contrary to
public belief, it is not just a free competition system. To the private system
has been joined a large public system, because private care was simply not
looking after the less fortunate and the elderly. But even with
this huge public part of the system, which this year will eat up 84.5 billion
dollars—more than 10 percent of the U.S. budget—large A. occasional mistakes by careless doctors B. a great deal of personal attention C. low charge by doctors and hospitals D. stacking nurses and bad services
[单项选择] Passage Four
Most people would agree that, although
our age exceeds all previous ages in knowledge, there has been no corresponding
increase in wisdom. But agreement ceases as soon as we attempt to define
"wisdom" and consider means of promoting it. There are several factors that
contribute to wisdom. Of these I should put first a sense of proportion: the
capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach
to each its due weight. This has become more difficult than it
used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the special knowledge required
of various kinds of technicians. Suppose, for example, that you are engaged in
research in scientific medicine. The work is difficult and is likely to absorb
the whole of your mind. You have no time to consider the effect which your
discoveries or inventions may have ou A. how much more wisdom we have now than before B. what wisdom is and how to develop it C. if there is a great increase of wisdom in our age D. whether wisdom can be developed or not
[单项选择] Passage One
Most people think of lions as strictly
African beasts, but only because they’ve been killed off almost everywhere else.
Ten thousand years ago lions spanned vast sections of the globe. Now lions hold
only a small fraction of their former habitat, and Asiatic lions, a subspecies
that spit from African lions perhaps 100 000 years ago, hang on to an almost
impossibly small slice of their former territory. India is the
proud steward of these 300 or so lions, which live primarily in a
S60-square-mile sanctuary (保护区). It took me a year and a half to get a permit to
explore the entire Gir Forest-and no time at all to see why these lions became
symbols of royalty and greatness. A tiger will hide in the forest unseen, but a
lion stands its ground, curious and unafraid-lionhearted. Though they told mc in
subtle ways when I got too close, A. the present sanctuary is not large enough B. scientists want to do more research on them C. they have killed many people D. the forest is shrinking in size
