Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
A lawyer friend of mine has devoted herself to the service of humanity. Her special area iscalled "public interest law".

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
Some psychologists(心理学家) maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performedin the brain alone, but that one' s muscles also participate. (76) It may be said that we think withour muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.
You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your earsbut with your whole body. Few people can listen to music without moving their body or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one listens to a symphonic concert on the radio, he is attracted to direct the orchestra (乐队) even though he knows there is a good conductor on the job.
Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener "feels" himself into the music with more or less noticeable motions of his body.( 77 ) The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the sameway, but this participation is less obvious because it is less noticeable.

A．not a mental process
B．more of a physical process than a mental action
C．a process that involves our entire bodies

B．stopping what they are doing to listen
C．directing the orchestra playing it
D．wishing that they could conduct music properly

A．the unnoticed motion of his muscles
B．"participating" in the performance
C．bending an ear to the music
D．being the conductor of the orchestra


35、 According to the passage, muscle participation in the process of thinking is _________

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
To swim across the English Channel takes at least nine hours. It' s a hard work and it makes you short of breath. To fly over the Channel takes only twenty minutes ( as long as you' re not held up at the airport), but it' s an expensive way to travel. You can travel by hovercraft if you don' t mind the noise, and that takes forty minutes. Otherwise you can go by boat, if you forget your sea-sickness ills. All these means of transport have their problems and the weary( 不耐烦的 ) travel-er often dreams of being able to drive to France in his own car. "Not possible", you say. Well, wait a minute. People are once again considering the idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge.
This time, the Greater London Council is looking into the possibility of building a Channel link straight to London. (79) A bridge would cost far more than a tunnel, but you would be able to
go by rail or by car on a bridge, whereas a tunnel would provide a rail link only.
Why is this idea being discussed again? Is Britain becoming more conscious of the need for links with Europe as a result of joining the EEC(欧共体) ? Well, perhaps. The main reason,though, is that a tunnel or bridge would reach the twenty square kilometers of London' s disused dockland(船坞地). A link from London to the continent would stimulate trade and re-vitalize( 使...重新有活力) the port, and would make London a main trading center in Europe. (80)With a link over the Channel, you could buy your fish and chips in England, and be able to eat them in France while they were still warm!

Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A．Swimming across the Channel takes less than four hours.
B．The idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge is a very new one.
C．It is considered to be more difficult to swim across the channel than any other means.
D．A tunnel or bridge would only reach as far as the coast.


37、
A tunnel would be
A．less expensive to be built than a bridge
B．more expensive to be built than a bridge
C．less expensive to be built than a rail
D．more expensive to be built than a rail


38、
If they built a Channel tunnel, you would
A．neither take a train nor go by car
B．only take a train
C．either take a train or go by car
D．only take a bus


39、
It can be concluded that many of London' s dockyards are
A．not used
B．seriously blocked
C．fully used
D．opened again


40、
Channel link would
A．allow us to buy fish and chips in France
B．make the journey from Europe to England dangerous but easier and faster
C．decrease more trade for London' s dockyards
D．make London more prosperous again
