14、about about Part II: Banked ClozeQuestions 31 to 40 are based on the following passage.Its very interesting that so many world cultures are (31), or based on the superiority of the father or husband. Why do you think this is so? There are a(n) (32) of explanations, but many of them can be traced bac

15、k to the basic (33) stereotypes: strength, power, and dominance. Throughout history and around the world, men have overpowered women due to their physical qualities. Yet how can we explain the handful of cultures that are actually (34), or based on the superiority of the mother or wife? No one can (

16、35) to know the precise reason for why they developed differently, but it is interesting to theorize. One particularly (36) fact is that most of these cultures have a strong agricultural tradition and, hence, a strong female role in society. One of the major tenets of the (37) movement is that moder

17、n women should not be restricted by traditional roles and their subservient status in society. Women should not believe that their gender automatically (38) them for the same rights and privileges that men enjoy. Women have been taught that, for us, the earth is flat, and that if we venture out, we

18、will fall off the edge. This anonymous (39) perfectly captures the essence of the modern feminist movement. Elevating the female gender to be completely equal with men should be the (40) cause of everyone everywhere. Your answer Correct answer (31) patriarchal patriarchal (32) myriad myriad (33) mas

19、culine masculine (34) matriarchal matriarchal (35) presume presume (36) revealing revealing (37) feminism feminism (38) disqualifies disqualifies (39) quote quote (40) singular singular Part III: Reading ComprehensionQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage. Language not only allows us

20、to communicate our thoughts and ideas to others but also helps us understand the world and how others think. Words and ideas convey much more than the basic information we use them for. Our choice of words, examples, context, and grammatical structure all contribute to forming a picture of ourselves

21、 and our world view. However, language is not a neutral vehicle in the representation of reality, and the mere existence of non-sexist and feminist terms does not guarantee their usage. Many of the words and ideas we use in everyday speech are overtly coded with sexist or gendered understandings whi

22、ch distract from their true intent. The only way to truly create a neutral language is to eliminate all of the sexist, feminist, gender-encoded terms and replace them with new ones. However, even this is not a guarantee that the words will be used in the intended manner or even that the cultural und

23、erstandings which are attached to the non-neutral terms will be changed. Sexist use of language can not, very feasibly, be changed simply through the replacement of certain words or terms. With the same cultural understanding in place, the new terms will only be appropriated to mean or signify the s

24、ame thing as the old ones. There is inherent sexism in language. Language and cultural understanding are connected and have a reciprocating relationship. Another implied sexist use of language is the tendency to refer to inanimate objects in English (with no grammatical gender) as gendered. This is

25、seen in references to boats, planes, or cars as feminine. Perhaps the most widely-used example of this is the idea of Mother Nature. Historically, men have treated nature as they treat womenas something to be subdued, exploited, and admired. Our concepts of gender and the relation of those concepts

26、to reality are reflected in our choice of words and referents. Language and our use of it are almost entirely entrenched in our understanding of the world. Therefore, commonly held beliefs about gender and the differences between men and women are reflected in language use. When gender neutral or fe

27、minine terms are introduced into a society still dominated by men, their intended neutrality is thwarted in actual usage. Indeed, if man equals human (linguistically and culturally), then man will always be the standard against which woman is measured. 41. Which of the following would make the best

28、title for this passage? A. The Neutrality of Language: Why Uninteresting Language is Sometimes Better B. Language as a Mirror: How Our Words Reflect What We Think C.
