Section II: Reading Comprehension
Each of the passages below is followed by some questions. For ach question four
answers are given. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of
the questions. Put your choice in the ANSWER SHEET. (30 points)
Text l
A wise man once said that the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for
good men to do nothing. So, as a police officer, I have some urgent things to say to
good people.
Day after day my men and I struggle to hold back a tidal wave of crime.
Something has gone terribly wrong with our once-proud American way of life. It has
happened in the area of values. A key ingredient is disappearing, and I think I know
what it is: accountability.
Accountability isn’t hard to define. It means that every person is responsible for
his or her actions and liable for their consequences.
Of the many values that hold civilization together -- honesty, kindness, and so on
-- accountability may be the most important of all. Without it, there can be no respect,
no trust, no law -- and, ultimately, no society.
My job as a police officer is to impose accountability on people who refuse, or
have never learned, to impose it on themselves. But as every policeman knows,
external controls on people’s behavior are far less effective than internal restraints
such as guilt, shame and embarrassment.
Fortunately there are still communities -- smaller towns, usually -- where schools
maintain discipline and where parents hold up standards that proclaim: “In this family
certain things are not tolerated -- they simply are not done!”
Yet more and more, especially in our larger cities and suburbs, these inner
restraints are loosening. Your typical robber has none. He considers your property his
property; he takes what he wants, including your life if you enrage him.

The main cause of this break-down is a radical shift in attitudes. Thirty years ago,
if a crime was committed, society was considered the victim. Now, in a shocking
reversal, it’s the criminal who is considered victimized: by his underprivileged
upbringing, by the school that didn’t teach him to read, by the church that failed to
reach him with moral guidance, by the parents who didn’t provide a stable home.
I don’t believe it. Many others in equally disadvantaged circumstances choose
not to engage in criminal activities. If we free the criminal, even partly, from
accountability, we become a society of endless excuses where no one accepts
responsibility for anything.
We in America desperately need more people who believe that the person who
commits a crime is the one responsible for it.
31. What the wise man said suggests that ________.
[A] it’s unnecessary for good people to do anything in face of evil
[B] it’s certain that evil will prevail if good men do nothing about it
[C] it’s only natural for virtue to defeat evil
[D] it’s desirable for good men to keep away from evil
32. According to the author, if a person is found guilty of a crime, ________.
[A] society is to be held responsible
[B] modern civilization is responsible for it
[C] the criminal himself should bear the blame
[D] the standards of living should be improved
33. Compared with those in small towns, people in large cities have ________.
[A] less self-discipline
[B] better sense of discipline
[C] more mutual respect
[D] less effective government
34. The writer is sorry to have noticed that ________.
[A] people in large cities tend to excuse criminals
[B] people in small towns still stick to old discipline and standards
[C] today’s society lacks sympathy for people in difficulty
[D] people in disadvantaged circumstances are engaged in criminal activities
35. The key point of the passage is that ________.
[A] stricter discipline should be maintained in schools and families
[B] more good examples should be set for people to follow
[C] more restrictions should be imposed on people’s behavior
[D] more people should accept the value of accountability
Text 2
The period of adolescence, i.e., the period between childhood and adulthood,
may be long or short, depending on social expectations and on society’s definition as
to what constitutes maturity and adulthood. In primitive societies adolescence is
銆� 7
frequently a relatively short period of time, while in industrial societies with patterns
of prolonged education coupled with laws against child labor, the period of
adolescence is much longer and may include most of the second decade of one’s life.
Furthermore, the length of the adolescent period and the definition of adulthood status
may change in a given society as social and economic conditions change. Examples of
this type of change are the disappearance of the frontier in the latter part of the
nineteenth century in the United States, and more universally, the industrialization of
an agricultural society.
In modern society, ceremonies for adolescence have lost their formal recognition
and symbolic significance and there no longer is agreement as to what constitutes
initiation ceremonies. Social ones have been replaced by a sequence of steps that lead
to increased recognition and social status. For example, grade school graduation, high
school graduation and college graduation constitute such a sequence, and while each
step implies certain behavioral changes and social recognition, the significance of
each depends on the socio-economic status and the educational ambition of the
individual. Ceremonies for adolescence have also been replaced by legal definitions
of status roles, right, privileges and responsibilities. It is during the nine years from
the twelfth birthday to the twenty-first that the protective and restrictive aspects of
childhood and minor status are removed and adult privileges and responsibilities are
granted. The twelve-year-old is no longer considered a child and has to pay full fare
for train, airplane, theater and movie tickets. Basically, the individual at this age loses
childhood privileges without gaining significant adult rights. At the age of sixteen the
adolescent is granted certain adult rights which increases his social status by
providing him with more freedom and choices. He now can obtain a driver’s license;
he can leave public schools; and he can work without the restrictions of child labor
laws. At the age of eighteen the law provides adult responsibilities as well as rights;
the young man can now be a soldier, but he also can marry without parental
permission. At the age of twenty-one the individual obtains his full legal rights as an
adult. He now can vote, he can buy liquor, he can enter into financial contracts, and he
is entitled to run for public office. No additional basic rights are acquired as a function
of age after majority status has been attained. None of these legal provisions
determine at what point adulthood has been reached but they do point to the
prolonged period of adolescence.
36. The period of adolescence is much longer in industrial societies because
________.
[A] the definition of maturity has changed
[B] the industrialized society is more developed
[C] more education is provided and laws against child labor are made
[D] ceremonies for adolescence have lost their formal recognition and symbolic
significance
37. Former social ceremonies that used to mark adolescence have given place to
________.
[A] graduations from schools and colleges
[B] social recognition
[C] socio-economic status
[D] certain behavioral changes
