　　Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)

　　Directions: In this part there are 4 passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

　　Passage 1

　　Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

　　When a person commits a crime, he is not always sent to prison. If he has committed some minor offense, he may be released from detention and allowed to remain in the community. This type of punishment is usually administered to juveniles. It is young people who usually commit the less serious crimes. For this reason they are given less punishment. Although the individual is not in jail, he is under the supervision of special police officers. These officers watch his actions very closely. This type of punishment is called probation.

　　The conditions of the probation are decided in a meeting during which a judge hears the offender's case. After this meeting, the judge issues an order of probation. This order can only be made with the offender's consent. If the offender does not wish to be placed on probation, he must go to jail.

　　Once on probation, the offender can't disobey the probation order. He must report to the police at least once a week. During the whole period of probation, the offender must live according to the conditions ordered by the court. If there is a breach of the probation order, the offender may be taken off probation and placed in jail.

　　A) imprisonment B) release

　　C) punishment D) offense

　　Passage 2

　　Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:

　　To an economist, labor is the supply of human resources which can be used in the production of goods and services. Labor can be classified into three types: skilled, semiskilled and unskilled. Each of these types has certain characteristics which distinguish it from the other two. These distinguishing characteristics are the degree of skill and training required of the worker and the specificity of the task performed.

　　Skilled labor is labor which either has expertise in particular skill, like tool making or printing, or which has received professional training, such as doctors, teachers and lawyers.

　　A semiskilled is a person who has reached a very high degree of skill over a limited range of activities. Such labor can be trained very quickly. A welder in a motor vehicle assembly plant is an example. Similarly, one manufacturer of business machines believes that an operator can be fully trained in two days.

　　Unskilled labor, as its name implies, requires little specialized training. Skills can be acquired on the job itself, and as the laborers grow used to the work they become more efficient. For example, when the canals were built in Britain, and later when the railways were laid, the entrepreneurs who built them found that it took a full year for strong healthy farm boys to become diggers. These young men had to learn to use their energy economically so that they could work long hours without feeling tired. Although a great deal of specialized training was not necessary, the strong body and character that the job required were not produced in a single day.

　　The idea of specificity is also important in classifying labor. Generally speaking, skilled labor tends to be more specific than semiskilled or unskilled labor: skilled laborers usually perform only those tasks for which they have special skill or training. For instance, a dentist must be employed in dentistry in order to use his or her special skills. For a dentist to work in the fields planting corn would be a waste of these skills. Of course, it may do the dentist a world of good to find out about the life of a farmer, but this would not substitute for the efficient use of the dentists' service in caring for people's teeth. A welder in an automobile factory is a less specific type of labor. This laborer might be equally useful repairing cars or welding steel framework of a new building.

　　26. According to the author's classification, someone working on the assembly line is a (an) ________ laborer.

　　A) extremely skilled B) skilled

　　C) semiskilled D) unskilled

　　27. Which of the following does the passage NOT mention as a factor to be considered in classifying labor?

　　A) The degree of skills required of the worker.

　　B) The environment in which the job is done.

　　C) The training that the worker receives.

　　D) The specificity of the task.

　　28. What is said about the unskilled labor in this passage?

　　A) Unskilled workers have to receive specified training.

　　B) Unskilled labor, as its name implies, requires no skills at all.

　　C) In some cases, it takes a long time to make a person an unskilled worker.

　　D) Only the strong-bodied can become an unskilled laborer.

　　29. Which of the following is the least specific type of labor?

　　A) A welder B) A digger

　　C) A dentist D) A lawyer

　　30. "...it may do a world of good to the dentist to find out about the life of a farmer"(Para.5) implies that .

　　A) a farmer's life has something to do with the dentist's job

　　B) most farmers have dental problems

　　C) knowledge about his patient's background may substitute for the dentist's skills

　　D) some general information about his patient may help the dentist in his job

　　Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

　　I find it wholesome to be alone the greater part of the time; to be in company, even with the best, is soon wearisome and dissipating, and I never found a companion so companionable as solitude.

　　We are for the most part lonely when we go abroad than we stay in our chambers, for solitude is not measured by the miles of space that intervene between a man and his fellows.

　　The farmer, who can work alone all day without feeling lonesome, but must recreate with others at night wonders how the students can sit alone at night; he does not realize that the student, though in his house, is actually at work in his field and chopping his wood as the farmer was in his.

　　Society is commonly too cheap: We meet at very short intervals, not having had time to acquire any new value for each other; we meet at meals three times a day and give each other a new taste of that musty old cheese that we are; we live thick and in each other's way, and I think that we thus lose some respect for one another.
