25981 .   unlike the eye, the ear has no lids. Therefore noise penetrates without obstruction. Loud noises instinctively signal danger to any organism with a hearing mechanism, including human beings. In response, heartbeat and respiration accelerate. In fact, there is a general increase in functioning brought about by the flow of adrenalin released in response to fear. Because noise is unavoidable in a complex industrial society, we are constantly responding in the same ways that we would respond to anger. Recently, researchers have concluded that noise and our response may be much more than an annoyance. It may be a serious  threat to physical and psychological health and well-being causing  damage not only to the ear and brain but also to the heart and stomach. We have long known that hearing loss is America's number one  nonfatal health problem, but now we are learning that some of us with heart disease and ulcer may be victims of noise as well.   1.What is the author's main contention?
  • A. noise may pose a serious threat to our physical and psychological health
  • B. loud noises signal danger
  • C. hearing loss is America's number one nonfatal health problem
  • D. the ear is not like the eye

25986 . The first shock that I received had nothing to do with the stone ; figures I had come to see. It was the sight of the island itself that. filled me with astonishment. It was so barren: there were no trees, and it was apparent that scarcely any ground was good enough to support crops. Yet nobody looked hungry or unhappy. The second shock left me in a state of wonder. Many people have indeed seen photographs of the enormous stone figures, but the pictures show single statues or groups of only three or-four. What I now discovered was that there are hundreds; they are all over the island. ‘he greatest concentration of the figures is near the eastern tip. Here lies the quarry from which the stone was taken. What surprised the writer at first?
  • A. The stone figures
  • B. The size of the statues
  • C. The island itself

25988 . Let us define a plot. We have defined a story as a narrative of events arranged in their time sequence. A plot is also a narrative of events, the emphasis falling on causality. “The kind died and the queen died” is a story.” “The king. died and the queen died of grief,” is a plot. The time-sequence Is preserved, but the sense of causality overshadows it. Or again: “The queen died, no one knew why, until it was discovered that it was through grief at the death of the king.” This is a plot with a mystery in it, a form capable of high development. It suspends the time-sequence, it moves as far away & from the story as its limitations will allow. Consider the death of: the queen. If it is a story we say, “and then?” If it is a plot we ask’ why?” That is a fundamental difference between these two, aspects of the novel  The death of a queen in a good plot will be trated________.
  • A. causally
  • B. causlly
  • C. episodically
