Passage 2
What do we think with？ Only the brain？ Hardly. The brain is like a telephone exchange. It is the switchboard， but not the whole system. Its function is to receive incoming signals， make proper connections， and send the messages through to their destination. For efficient service， the body must function as a whole.
But where is the“mind”？ Is it in the brain？ Or perhaps in the nervous system？ After all， can we say that the mind is in any particular place？ It is not a thing， like a leg， or even the brain. It is a function， an activity. Aristotle， twenty-three hundred years ago， observed that the mind was to the body what cutting was to the ax. When the ax is not in use， there is no cutting. So with the mind.“Mind，”said Charles H. Woolbert，“is what the body is doing.”
If this activity is necessary for thinking， it is also necessary for carrying thought from one person to another. Observe how people go about business of ordinary conversation. If you have never done this painstakingly， you have a surprise in store， for good conversationalists are almost constantly in motion. Their heads are continually nodding and shaking sometimes so vigorously that you wonder how their necks can stand the strain.
Even the legs and feet are active. As for the hands and arms ， they are seldom still for more than a few seconds at a time. These people， remember， are not making speeches. They are merely common folk trying to make others understand what they have in mind. They are not conscious of movement. Their speech is not studied. They are just human creatures in a human environment， trying to adapt themselves to a social situation. Yet they converse， not only with oral language， but with visible actions that involve practically every muscle in the body.
In short， because people really think all over， a speaker must talk all over if he succeeds in making people think.
41. Which of the following is the best title for this passage？
A. Bodily Communication
B. Bodily Actions
C. Spoken Language
D. Conversations
43. In communication， it is essential not only to employ speech， but also __________.
A. to speak directly to the other person
B. to employ a variety of bodily movements
C. to be certain that the other person is listening
D. to pay great attention to the other person‘s behavior
44. It can be inferred from the passage that the basic function of bodily activity in speech is to __________.
A. make the listener feel emotional
B. make the speaker understood
C. strengthen the speaker‘s oral words
D. convey the speaker‘s implied meaning to the listener

A. The brain is compared to a telephone exchange.
B. The mind is an activity of the nervous system.
C. Some people remain still while talking to others.
D. Many people move their bodies on purpose while talking.
Passage 3
Censorship is becoming more and more of a dirty word. So persuasive have been the arguments against it， put forward by intelligent， well-meaning and above all articulate （雄辩的） campaigners， that nowadays censorship is hardly found in any state of the US. These people argued that the censorship which had prevailed throughout most of history had resulted in needless interference with， and frustration of， the creative talent of artists and writers.
So now we have the opposite situation. But are the effects of this change as beneficial as expected？ To put it bluntly， has the literary market been flooded with hitherto（到目前为止）suppressed masterpieces since censorship was eased？ Oddly enough， rather the opposite is the case， and moreover we now have a situation in which fornication （通奸） and homosexual rape can be displayed on stage in the name of entertainment. The nook and magazine market is awash（覆盖，淹没）with printed filth and the public flocks to buy it.
But perhaps I am wrong to be worried by this– maybe my disquiet， and that of others like me， is just a hangover from the former more restrictive situation. Many people would argue against us that books， plays and films do not have the power to corrupt.
Yet it‘s clear that society does have some conscience about what its members do in the name of entertainment. We would not， for example， allow someone to take his own life as part of a television show （although a recent Hollywood movie was frighteningly realistic in its depiction of TV producers promoting just this event to enhance their audience ratings ）。 We have made such entertainment as bear-baiting， and cockfighting， criminal offenses， because we believe that watching such things tends to deprave （使堕落） and corrupt spectators.
The type of censorship we need is， in my view， similar to the laws we have governing the use of alcohol and tobacco.
Although we can trace the bad effects of smoking and drinking， we have not prohibited them， but introduced laws which regulate their use， rather than repressing it altogether. In the case of pornography （色情文学） ， such registration would not run contrary to liberal principles and should therefore be acceptable to even the most ardent civil libertarians. The risin
apanese get high-school diplomas. But nearly a quarter of America‘s teenagers drop out， sending one million untrained youngsters into the job market every year. The problem would be worse， some experts say with a straight face， if so many teenagers didn’t stay in school so they could take driver‘s education and get a driver’s license.
For years， foreigners have outclassed young Americans in academic knowledge， and this week sees still another indictment of U.S. education： New details on how thousands of 12th graders in selected countries did on a 1982 algebra test given by the International Association for Evaluation of Educational Achievement. Hong Kong ranked first， barely ahead of Japan. The U.S. Finished 14th among the 15 countries， just ahead of Thailand， just behind Hungary. In a United Nations survey of what students in nine countries know about foreign cultures， the U.S. comes in next to last. One test of American 12-year-olds shows 20 percent unable to locate even their own nation on a world map.“Our students lag behind， and it doesn‘t bode well for our country，”says Herbert Walberg， a comparative-education expert for the University of Illinois in Chicago.“Fifty-five percent of America’s jobs involve information processing. If we don‘t have good， solid skills in language， geography， math and science， we’ll be at a severe disadvantage.”

Passage two
Children in the United states are exposed to many influences other than that of their families. Television is the most significant of these influences， because the habit of watching television usually begins before children start attending school. And， by the time that the average child finishes high school， he or she will have spent 18，000 hours in front of a television set as opposed to 12，000 hours in a classroom.
Parents are concerned about these figures. They are also concerned about the lack of quality in television programs for children. The degree of violence in many of these shows also worries them.
Even if it is unreal– a cartoon cat beating up a cartoon mouse with a baseball bat– this violence may have a negative effect on the young minds exposed to it. Studies indicate that， when children are exposed to violence， they may become aggressive or insecure.
Parents are also concerned about the commercials that their children set on television. Many parents would like to see fewer commercials during programs for children. And some parents feel that these shows should not have commercials at all because young minds are not mature enough to deal with the claims made by advertisers.
Educational television has no commercials and has programs for children that many parents approve of. The most famous of these is“Sesame Street”， which tries to give preschool children a head start in learning the alphabet and numbers. It also tries to teach children useful things about the world in which they live.
Even though most parents and educators give“Sesame Streets”and shows like it high marks for quality， some critics argue that all television， whether educational or not， is harmful to children. These critics feel that the habit of watching hours of television every day turns children into bored and passive consumers of their world rather than encouraging them to become active explorers of it.
Questions：
13. Which of the following statements best gives the main idea of the passage？
14. According to the passage， what do you think“Sesame Street”is？
15. What will be the consequence if a child forms a habit of watching hours of television every day？
