二、阅读理解（共 2 道试题，共 30 分。）V 1.   If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A well-known scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876-1937), concluded from other men's work and his own among people in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man's mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking!
1). Huntington based his conclusions on ___________.
A. work with people in different climates
B. records of temperature changes
C. records of change in his own intelligence
D. all of the above

2).  Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have _________.
A. a great effect on everyone's intelligence  
B. no effect on people's intelligence
C. effect on only a few people's intelligence
D.  some effect on most people's intelligence
      满分：3  分
3). One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that ___________.
A.  there are some things making all nature different from before
B. it is neither too warm nor too cold
C. it is more natural for the development of mental abilities
D. it lasts longer than the other seasons

2.    From the outset(开始), railroad and canals were bitter competitors(激烈竞争者). For a time the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Company blocked the advance of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad through the narrow gorge(峡谷) of the upper Potomac, and the State of New York prohibited railroads from hauling freight in competition with the Erie Canal and its branches. These restrictions(限制) and the slow pace of railroad building meant that canals carried twice as much tonnage as railroads even as late as 1852. But railroads had the advantage of speed and year-round operation (canals closed down for the winter freeze) and could be located almost anywhere, regardless of terrain(地形) and the availability of water. These assets, combined with a slight price advantage, produced a victory for railroads during the 1850's. By the end of the decade, they took most of the nation's passenger traffic and carried more freight than the canals.


1). 1. What drawbacks were there to the introduction of railroads in North America?
A. The Chesapeake and Ohio canals were more advanced than the railroads.
B. It was more efficient to use the Erie Canal than the railroad.
C. Some of the gorges, such as the Potomac, were too narrow to use for railroads.
