The difference was that only 2,000 cars a day ran down Octavia。

in Appleyard’s terminology) while Gough Street (MEDIUM stre。

cars a day, and Franklin Street (HEAVY street) had around 16,000 cars a day.。

Franklin Street often had as many cars in an hour as Octavia Street had in a day.。

Heavy traffic brought with it danger, noise, fumes, and soot, directly, and trash。

secondarily. That is, the cars didn’t bring in much trash, but when trash accumulated,。

residents seldom picked it up. The cars, Appleyard determined, reduced the amount of。

territory residents felt responsible for. Noise was a constant intrusion into their homes.。

Many Franklin Street residents covered their doors and windows and spent most of their time in the rear of their houses. Most families with children had already left.。

Conditions on Octavia Street were much different. Residents picked up trash. They sat on their front steps and chatted with neighbors. They had three times as many friends and twice as many acquaintances as the people on Franklin.。

On Gough Street, residents said that the old feeling of community was disappearing as traffic increased. People were becoming more and more preoccupied with their own lives.

Test 2

Imagine, if you will, the average games player. What do you see? A guy who never grew up? Or a nervous 18-year-old pushing buttons on his controller, lost and alone in a violent onscreen world? Sorry, you lose. The average gamer is starting to look pretty much like the average person. For the first time, according to a U.S. poll commissioned by AOL Games, roughly half of those surveyed, ages 12 to 55, are tapping away at some kind of electronic game － whether on a PC, a cell phone or another handheld device － for an average of three hours every week.。

The games people play say a lot about who they are. Machines like the Xbox and PlayStation 2 are largely the territory of twenty-something men, who prefer to picture themselves as sports stars and racing drivers. Men 50 and older prefer military games. Teenage girls are much more likely than boys to play games on their phone, while older women make up the majority of people playing card games such as Hearts on line.。

Is it a good thing, all this time spent on games? Or is it as harmful as television, pulling people ever further from reality? The AOL survey suggests some players are in denial about the extent of their habit. One in 10 gamers finds it impossible to resist games; 1 in 4 admits to losing a night’s sleep to play games; and another quarter has been too absorbed to have meals.。

But don’t think we’re all heading into a world with everyone plugged into, if not totally controlled by, his own game. Quite the contrary: gamers appear to be more engaged with reality than other kinds of couch potatoes. According to a comprehensive survey by the Entertainment Software Association (ESA – whose members, of course, want you to think video games are healthy), gamers spend an average of 23 hours a week volunteering and going to church, concerts, museums and other cultural events. More enthusiastic gamers who play 11 hours a week or more spend ever more time out in the cultural world (34 hours).。

51. The AOL survey finds that electronic games .。

[A] do not present a violent onscreen world。

[B] no longer keep gamers from growing up。

[C] are no longer exclusive to young people。

[D] are not as popular with teenagers as before。

52. Who does the author say tend to identify themselves with the characters in the game?。

[A] Teenage girls.。

[B] Older women.。

[C] Men in their 20s.。

[D] Men 50 and older.。

53. When asked about the extent of their habit, some players .。

[A] refused to provide an answer to this question。

[B] denied they were affected by electronic games。

[C] wondered why they were asked such a question。

[D] stressed their interest in playing electronic games。

54. It can be inferred from the text that .。

Text 3

The ostrich, the largest bird in the world at present, lives in the drier regions of Africa outside the actual deserts. Because of its very long, powerful legs and the floating effect of its extended wings, it is able to run at great speed over considerable distances.。

The female ostrich normally produces about twenty eggs every rainy season. When the female ostrich begins to lay her eggs, however, she does not begin in her own nest. Instead she goes off in search of the nests of neighboring females and lays two or three eggs in each of them. By the time she has laid eight or nine eggs, she returns and lays the rest in her own nest.。

Because of the size of the eggs, the female ostrich cannot lay more than one every two days, so it takes her three weeks to finish laying in her own nest. During that period, she spends a lot of time away from her nest looking for food. And while she is off her nest, other females visit it to lay their eggs amongst hers. By the time she is ready to sit on the eggs to hatch them, there could be up to thirty eggs in her nest, over half of which are not her own.。

The female ostrich can comfortably cover only about twenty eggs when she is sitting on the nest so before settling down she pushes the surplus ten or so eggs out of the nest. The rejected eggs, however, never include any of her own. Each female is remarkably consistent in the size and shape of the eggs she produces, so it is not difficult for her to distinguish her own from those of strangers.。

Of all the eggs laid by a colony of ostriches, only a very small number hatch into young birds. There are times when nests are left unprotected, for there are too few males to sit on all the nests at night. Thus there are ample opportunities for their natural enemies to raid the nests and eat the eggs. In fact, nearly 80% of the nests are destroyed. But even if a particular female’s nest suffers this fate, there is a good chance that one or two of her eggs will be hatched in the nest of one of her neighbors.。

[A] it is a special kind of bird。

[D] it is the largest bird in the world。

Part B

Directions:

Read the opinions given by five scholars on challenges facing today’s single women. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each scholar to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.。

Timothy Constance。

What the women I spoke with said was that they want a husband who is independent and dedicated to his career, but that he doesn’t have to make a lot of money. The emphasis was always on finding a best friend – a soul mate – someone you could tell all your troubles to and who would be supportive. So it doesn’t seem to be the case that these women were looking fro super high-achieving men.。

Grise Levison

I think that for women, as well as for men, the standard for someone who you’d want to spend your life with depends much more today on emotional intimacy. It takes some trial and error and a pretty long and dedicated search to identify the kind of person who is emotionally matching you and who is able to communicate and listen to trouble talk.。

Marry Brown

In recent decades girls have been raised to be more competitive and stronger than they were in the past. Several women I talked to mentioned that in their life they felt that their intelligence or intellectual achievement seemed to work against them in their romantic relationships with men. However, most of the women I interviewed felt that there were some men “out there” who would be attracted to smart women. The problem was finding them.。

Donna smith

I think, for the women I talked to, their ultimate sense of what they want in life includes family and children, but they aren’t willing to think about the fact that they therefore will probably have to give up some of their own individual pursuits and career goals. I think the definition of success includes both love and work, and that the challenge is how to arrange that in a particular order.。

Elizabeth Budy

I think that people who have done at least some of the things that are essential for a wise judgment about a partner are more likely to eventually end up in a stable marriage. It’s also true that they’re likely to marry someone who is similar to them in education and earning power, which means that those marriages are likely to have more money in them.。

Now match the name of each scholar (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.。

Note: there are two extra statements.。

Statements。

61. Timothy Constance [A] Career success is in fact not a disadvantage.。

62. Grise Levison [B] The ability to choose a right partner ensures a stable marriage.。

63. Marry Brown [C] How to balance career with family is key to success.。

64. Donna Smith [D] The essential part of marriage is the union of soul.。

65. Elizabeth Budy [E] Finding an emotionally intimate mate isn’t a piece of cake.。

[F] Career success ensures a solid marriage.。

[G] Social assistance is needed for today’s single women.。
