此部分共有2篇短文，每篇短文后有5个问题。请从每个问题后的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并用铅笔将答题卡上的相应字母涂黑。
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
　　I was born in the city of York, in England, in the year 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. My father gave me strong advice against it, but with little effect. One day, being at Hull, I met a school-fellow who was about to sail for London in his father's ship, and he invited me to go with him, and without telling my father, I went on board.
　　On the way to London, a storm arose, the ship was wrecked (失事), and we barely escaped with our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a vessel which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He took a fancy to me, and offered me a chance to go with him on his voyages, which I gladly accepted.
　　A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed (被颠簸) about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we struck a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we launched (使…下水) a boat. After we had been driven four or five miles, a mountainous wave struck us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. Though I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was dashed (被猛撞) against a rock with such force that it left me senseless. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely.
16. What did the author want to do most when he was young?
A. To visit Africa.
B. To sail the seas.
C. To practice law.
D. To make a tour of London.
17. Why did the author go on foot to London?
A. The ship he took was destroyed in a storm.
B. His father did not supply the fare for the journey.
C. He went against his father’s strong advice not to do so.
D. His school-fellow invited him to go together.
18. Why did they launch a boat?
A. they knew they were near the shore.
B. the big waves were about to overturn the ship.
C. their ship had been knocked about for many days on the sea.
D. their ship had struck sand and was about to break into pieces.
19. When the author got to the mainland, he_________.
A. searched everywhere for his lost companions       
B. fell down on the ground senseless
C. was safe and sound               
D. ran forward to escape being washed back into the sea
20. When the author finally arrived on land, he most probably_________.
A. knew he was in Africa                                            
B. did not know where he was
C. was not aware he was back in England            
D. got in touch with his family and asked for help
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
A man is seated at a desk. Before him lie a pencil and a large pile of blank paper. He picks up the pencil, closes his eyes, and attempts to draw a four-inch line. He repeats the exercises for several days, until he has drawn some 3,000 lines, all with his eyes closed. On the last day, he examines his work. The question is, how much improvement has there been in his ability to draw a four-inch line? How much has he learned from his effort? He found his ability to draw a four-inch line was no better on the last day than it had been on the first.
The result of his experiment may seem clear to us today, but it was an effective way of doubting a belief widely held earlier in the 20th century, a belief that formed the very basis of education at the time: “Practice makes perfect”.
It was this blind belief in practice that made countless hours of drill as a standard teaching technique. The experiment shows that practice in and of itself is not enough for learning. Based on this and other more formal studies, a conclusion is made that practices is important only in so far as it provides the opportunity for reinforcement (强化效应).
To reinforce (加强) means to strengthen by providing certain kinds of feedback (反馈). This feedback, called reinforcement, involves thing a person willingly seeks out. For example, we might teach a person to draw a four-inch line with his eyes closed simply by saying “good” each time the effort is within half an inch of the goal. Most people like to succeed, so this kind of feedback should be an effective way of reinforcing the correct practice.
21. The purpose of the drawing four-inch lines is to _________.
A. learn the skill of exact drawing
   B. test the belief: Practice makes perfect
   C. prove the practice of long time drill
   D. test the theory (理论) of reinforcement
22. The man failed to improve his ability because_________.
   A. he did not have enough practice
B. he had not belief in blindness
C. practice alone was not enough
D. the result of the practice was not clear
23. Which of the following is true about “reinforcement”?
A. Reinforcement is what people gain in practice.
B. Reinforcement is what the teacher forces on the students.
C. Reinforcement is the praise one gets when one reaches the goal.
D. Reinforcement means strengthening in practice through feedback.
24. The word“ willingly”（Line 2, Para.4） means _______.
A. eagerly                                 B. forced by outside world
   C. prepared to do something                D. powerfully
25. How can a man improve his ability to draw four-inch lines according to the passage?
A. Do plenty of exercises with a good pen
B. Open his eyes while drawing.
C. Begin with drawing half-an-inch lines.
D. Give him encouragement (鼓励) when he is near the goal.
