　　Part Two Reading Comprehension

　　Directions:

　　In this part there are four passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four

　　suggested answers. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET

　　by drawing with a pencil a short bar across the corresponding letter in the brackets.

　　Questions 11—15 are based on the following passage:

　　In the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs before he can learn to walk, the child

　　must physiologically be capable of producing and experiencing particular emotions before these emotions can be

　　modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes

　　place. One kind of learning is called "classical conditioning.' This occurs when one event or stimulus is

　　continuously followed by a reward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to

　　associate his mother's face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and

　　comfort. Negative emotions are learned in a similar fashion.

　　The second kind of learning is called "operant (動作的) conditioning." This occurs when an individual

　　learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments.

　　For example, if a mother always attends to her baby when he cries and cuddles him until he is quiet, she may teach

　　him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to

　　have his mother more.

　　11. The main purpose of this passage is to ___________.

　　A. teach children how to learn to produce and experience certain emotions

　　B. give the common reader a general description of two basic kinds of learning

　　C. give parents some advice on how to modify their children's emotions through learning

　　D. discuss with psychologists how positive and negative feelings are produced

　　12. If a child is bitten or startled several times by a dog, he may learn to associate furry (有皮毛的) animals with

　　pain or startle and thus develop a fear of furry animals. This is a typical example of learning through

　　_________.

　　A. classical conditioning B. operant conditioning

　　C. both A and B D. neither A nor B

　　13. If your jokes often find a ready echo in a person, you will learn through __________ that telling jokes to this

　　person is fun, and you will try with greater efforts to be humorous in his presence.
