II.认真阅读下面两篇短文，每篇短文后有五个问题。根据短文的内容从四个选项中选择一个最佳答案。（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）
Passage 1
A linguist is always listening, never off-duty. I invited a group of friends round to my house, telling them that I was going to record their speech. I said I was interested in their regional accents, and that it would take only a few minutes. Thus one evening, three people turned up at my house and were shown into my front room. When they saw the room they were a bit alarmed, for it was laid out as a studio.(工作室) In front of each easy chair, there was a microphone at head height, with wires leading to a tape recorder in the middle of the floor. They sat down, and I explained that all I wanted was for them to count from 1 to 20. Then we could relax and have a drink.
I turned on the tape-recorder and each in turn counted from 1 to 20 in their best accents. When it was over, I turned the tape-recorder off and brought round the drinks. For the rest of the evening there was general jolly conversation—spoilt only by the fact that I had to take a telephone call in another room, which unfortunately lasted some time.
As a matter of fact, the microphones were not connected to the tape-recorder in the middle of the room at all but to another one in the kitchen. The participants, having seen the visible tape-recorder turned off, paid no more attention to the microphone which stayed in front of their chairs, only a few inches from their mouths, thus giving excellent sound quality. And my lengthy absence meant that I was able to obtain as natural a piece of conversation as it would be possible to find.
Of course, I did tell my friends what had happened to them after the event was over and gave them the option of destroying the tape. But none of them wanted to.
31.The linguist asked his friends to count from one to twenty because .
A．he wanted to record the numbers for his research
B．he wanted to find out whether the tape recorder was working
C．he wanted to make his friends relax before real recording started
D．he wanted his friends to think that was all he wanted to record
32.The linguist turned off the tape-recorder because .
A．he had to answer a phone call
B．he wanted his friends to enjoy some drinks
C．he thought the tape-recorder might bother his friends
D．he wanted to make his friends believe he had finished the recording
33.The linguist went into another room to .
A．get a natural recording of his friends’ conversation
B．stay away from too much drinking with his friends
C．bring a telephone into the front room.
D．answer a long distance phone call
34.The linguist successfully recorded his friends’ conversation on the recorder .
A．in the kitchen
B．in the front room
C．in the middle of the room
D．in the room where he was answering the call
35.Which of the following words can best describe the recording which the linguist managed to make?
A．controlled B．prepared
C．natural D．artificial
Passage 2
A father’s relationship to his child’s current and future academic success is an important factor with some rather interesting implications that educators are beginning to study and estimate. As a matter of fact, “life with father” has been discovered to be a very important factor in determining a child’s progress or lack of progress in school.
A recent survey of over 16,000 children made by the National Child Development Study in London, England, revealed that children whose fathers came to school conferences and accompanied their children on outings did better in schools than did those children whose fathers were not involved in these activities. The study monitored(监测) children born in the same week in March,1958, from the time of their birth through the years of their early schooling. It revealed that the children of actively involved fathers did better in reading and math than did children whose only involved parent was the mother. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the role played by fathers in the raising of a child. It indicated a much higher level of parental involvement by the father than had been expected. Over 66% of the fathers were said to have played a major role in parental responsibility.
The study also suggested that the greatest level of fatherly parenting took place in the families of only one child. As the number of children and financial obligations increased, the father’s apparent interest and involvement with the children decreased. However, no matter what the size of financial condition of the family, a father’s active participation in the child’s development made a definite difference in the child’s progress.
The study further revealed that when the father was frequently away from home for the night, it had a bad effect on the child’s level in math and reading. However, if he worked on night shifts, it appeared to have little effect on the child’s academic progress. The data for the study was obtained primarily through interviews with parents, teachers and physicians. The information that evaluated the level of the father’s parenting performance came chiefly from observations of their wives.
36.In this article the author intends to say that ( ).
A．parental involvement by the father is as good as that by the mother
B．parental involvement by the father is far better than that by the mother
C．children with only father’s involvement do very well in schools
D．children with the father’s involvement do better in math and reading than those whose only involved parent is the mother
37.The expression “life with father” in this context means ( ).
A．life in a family without the mother
B．life in a family with only the father
C．life in a family where the father is involved in the child’s growth
D．life in a family where the mother is not involved in the child’s growth
38.Study results show that ( ) the fathers were involved in the child’s development.
A．about one third of B．about two-thirds of
C．just about half of D．no more than half of
39.The study indicated that if fathers are frequently away from home for the night, their children might be ( ) in reading and math.
A．favorably affected B．little affected
C．unfavorably affected D．a little affected
40.The data accumulated was obtained through ( ).
A．monitoring children of the same age throughout their schooling
B．interviews with the children’s mothers
C．observations of parents, teachers and physicians
D．monitoring, interviews and observations
