For almost two months Dominic York, a 23-year-old hairdresser(理发师), wandered(徘徊) about hospitals all night, wearing a white coat and pretending he was a doctor. Yesterday he proudly said in court that despite his complete lack of medical experience or qualifications(资格), he had saved several people’s lives. He had even been allowed to help a surgeon(外科医生) during an emergency operation on a patient who was about to die on something she had swallowed(吞).
“I watched one of those TV dramas about a hospital and suddenly I felt like playing one of the roles myself. So I put on a white jacket and a stethoscope(听诊器)and walked around one of the biggest hospital in London. At first I just watched. Once you learn how doctors talk to patients, nurses and other doctors, it’s easy to take people in,” he said.
One of the patients he treated was Laura Kennan. She had been knocked down by a car and fainted. When she came to in hospital, York was standing over her.
“He looked very professional(专业的). He told me his name was Doctor Simon. Then he gave me some sort of injection(注射),” she said. And then he suddenly went away when a nurse asked who he was. She didn’t think there was anything wrong. “I would never have realized he was a fake(冒牌货) if a policewoman hadn’t showed me his photograph a week later. When the policewoman told me who he really was, I could hardly believe my ears.”
Judge Raymond Adams told York that he was “ shocked and horrified” that he got away with his deceiving(欺骗) for so long, and then sentenced(判刑) him to eighteen months in a special prison for criminal with mental disorders.
“I can only hope that this will not lead to further problems. After all, you will have considerable opportunity to study the behavior of the psychiatrists (精神科医生) who will look after you while you are there. If you try to persuade people that you yourself are a psychiatrist after you are set free, I shall make sure that you are given a much longer sentence.” Judge Adams warned York.

If we are asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we might have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and written in it account(陈述) of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.
It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account(叙述) of them. Sometimes men did keep record of the important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a great deal about the people who lived in China 4000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.
Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, they may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and those have been sung and acted and told for many generations(代), for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call “remembered history”. Some of it has now been written into history, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.
61.Which of the following ideas is not talked about in the passage above?
A.“Remembered history” is less reliable(可靠的) than written history.
B. Written records of the past play a most important part in our learning of the human history.
C. A written account of our daily activities (活动) helps us to answer some questions.
D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.
62.“Remembered history” refers to _________.
A. history based on a person's imagination(想象)
B. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouth
C. songs and dances about the most important events(事件)
D. both B and C
63.“Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when _________.
A. it is written down B. there is no written account
C. it proves to be true D. people are interested in it
64. It can be inferred (推断) from the passage that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if our ancestors(祖先) had _________.
A. kept a written record of every past event
B. not burnt their written records in wars
C. told exact stories of the most important happenings
D. made more songs and dances

第三部分阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
Most painters discover a style(风格) of painting that suits them and stick to that, especially if people admire their pictures. But Picasso, the great Spanish painter, was like a man who had not yet found his own particular style of painting. He kept on struggling to find the perfect expression till his death in 1973.
Some of Picasso's paintings are rich, soft coloured and beautiful. Others are ugly and cruel and strange. But such paintings allow us to imagine things for ourselves. They force us to say to ourselves, “What does he see that makes him paint like that?” And we begin to look beneath(在…之下) the surface of the things we see.
Picasso painted thousands of pictures in different styles. Sometimes he painted the natural look of things. Sometimes he seemed to break them apart and throw the pieces in our faces. He showed us what the mind knows as well as what the eye sees. At the age of 90 he remained as curious about the world as he had been when he was young. That is why people have called him “the youngest painter in the world”.

A. about some pictures which have different styles

A. make us try to notice something latent(潜在的) in the things

Newspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past．There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people read only the sports pages，the advice or the gossip columns，the comics, and perhaps the classified advertisements．Most people don’t take the time to read the real news. Newspapers attempt to catch the reader’s interest with pictures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper．The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story and headline to make them stop and look．If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough，perhaps they will go on to read the front page．However，they may just read the headlines，but that is all，then they turn to the sports page，or comics，or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore. They say they get the news on the television now．
More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper．What about you? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you think it is easier to get the news from television? Or do you care about news at all? Would you mind if there were no news?
