20、t II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes, 30 %) Directions: Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the questions following the passage. Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage: Why do students cut classes so frequently? I can cite the immediate causes, but I fi

21、rst want to note that they can cut because they are allowed to. They cut because of the climate of acceptance that comes from our belief that responsibility can be developed only when one is free, free even to act against personal best interests. That that is a misapplied belief in this case can be

22、easily demonstrated. When substantial numbers of students do not attend, classroom learning is depreciated (贬低), student and teacher morale suffers, and academic standards are compromised. Students who miss classes unnecessarily are hurting more than themselves. They are undermining what colleges an

23、d universities are all about. Students cut for two general reasons. They have things to do that appear more important than the class, or they wish to avoid what they fear will be painful consequences if they attend.

24、uses for missing a class. 4 But other excusesthe demands of outside jobs, social engagements (including recovering from the night before), completing assignments for other coursesare, at best, questionable.

But what accounts for frequent cutting where the teacher tries to make the material interesting, knows the students by n

27、ame, and approaches them with respect and help? I accept that questions as unanswerable. I simply tell my students: Attend my classes regularly or drop the course. Thats the rule. 16. The word “that” (Line 4, Para. 1) refers to _. A) the immediate causes of the students absence from classes B) the a

28、uthors belief that students are permitted to cut classes C) teachers tolerance of the students who rarely show up in the classroom D) the belief that freedom is essential in cultivating a sense of responsibility 17. Why do university students so often miss classes? A) They are advised to rest until

29、they recover from their illnesses. B) They want to avoid painful feelings brought by the professors. C) The inadequate allowances they get force them to take part-time jobs. D) They think the teaching qualifications of the professors are open to question. 18. The word “aversion” (Line 4, Para.3) mea

30、ns _. A) response B) dislike C) excuse D) plainness 19 What is the result of the students frequent cutting? A) They are likely to avoid more classes. B) They have to lower their academic standards. C) They are involved in more social activities. D) They attach less importance to classroom learning.

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: A subject which seems to have been insufficiently studied by doctors and psychologists is the influence of geography

32、 and climate on the psychological and physical health of humankind.
