Perhaps the most important defining characteristic of a human being is culture. The term culture as used here is not limited to operas, paintings, and other artistic endeavors. These are seen by anthropologists (人类学家) as examples of culture: culture itself is the customary manner in which human groups learn to organize their behavior. and thought in relation to their environment. Defined in this manner, culture has three principal aspects: behavioral, perceptual and material. The behavioral component refers to how people act, especially how they interact with each other. In child rearing (养育) , for example, parents and children tend to interact in a relatively patterned fashion. Then there is the manner of perception, the ways people perceive the world. For example, parents have a limited range of ideas about how they should act, and what significance parenthood carries in the scheme of things. Finally, there is the material component of culture — the physical objects that we produce. Most of what goes into making up culture is a result of learning — modifying behavior. in response to experience within an environment. Learning is practically universal among organisms. But no other organism has a greater capacity for learning than a human, or depends as much on learned behavior. for its survival. While the survival of most other organisms is to some extent safeguarded by instincts, humans rely heavily on culture for their survival. People must learn how to live in a particular social and physical setting, biology playing but a minimal (最小限度的) role. The ideas and modes of behavior. that constitute culture are transmitted largely by a complex system of symbols that includes language. Humans have evolved an extremely complex system of communication that is unique to our species. Without it the creation of human culture as we know it would be impossible. Question：Learning is most essential for _________.
A、all the organisms to survive
B、all the organisms to acquire learned behavior
C、human beings to respond to experience within an environment
D、human beings to survive and live in a society
Dogs are similar to human beings in ______.
A．size
B．structure
C．temperament
D．appearance
Social scientists are, of course, extremely interested in these types of questions. They want to explain why we possess certain characteristics and exhibit certain behaviors. There are no clear answers yet, but two distinct schools of thought on the matter have been developed. As one might expect, the two approaches are very different from one another, and there is a great deal of debate between proponents of each theory. The controversy is often referred to as " nature/nurture".
Two who support the" nature" side of the conflict believe that our personalities and behavior. patterns are largely determined by biological and genetic factors. That our environment has little, if anything, to do with our abilities, characteristics, and behavior. is central to this theory. Taken to an extreme, this theory maintains that our behavior. is predetermined to such a degree that we are almost completely governed by our instincts.
Proponents of the " nurture" theory, or as they are often called, behaviorists, claimed that our environment is more important than our biologically based instincts in determining how we will act. A behaviorist, B. F. Skinner, sees humans as beings whose behavior. is almost completely shaped by their surroundings. The behaviorists view of the human being is quite mechanistic; they maintain that, like machines, humans respond to environmental stimulus as the basis of their behavior.
Neither of these theories can yet fully explain human behavior. In fact, it is quite likely that the key to our behavior. lies somewhere between these two extremes. That the controversy will continue for a long time is certain.
Which of the following statements would supporters of the" nature" theory agree with？
A．A person's instincts have little effect on his actions.
B．Environment is important in determining a person's behavior. and personality.
C．Biological reasons have a strong influence on how we act.
D．The behaviorists' view correctly explains how we act.
Since human beings(A) depend to(B) a great extent on forests, every effort must be made preserving(C) trees and wildlife(D).

A．only human beings have problem-solving intelligence
B．a person' s memory is different from a computer' s in every respect
C．animals are able to solve only very simple problems
D．animals solve problems by instincts rather than intelligence

The killer bees should not be coming at all. Nature did not put them on this direct path for the United States; human beings did. The killer bees are from Africa. But in 1957 a scientist from Brazil got some of these killer bees for his experiments. The aim was to produce a better bee. However, an accident happened: a guest beekeeper let twenty-six of the queen bees escape by mistake. Before long, groups of killer bees took off for the woods.
Since that time, the wild killer bees have multiplied(繁衍) many times over. By 1998, their population was over 1015. They have spread all over South America, Central America, and most of Mexico. The United States is the next stop.
Are the killer bees really killers？ Yes, they are. In their first thirty years in America, they have killed thousands of hens, pigs, and other animals. While no one knows the exact number, it is believed that several hundred people have also been killed.
So be careful. Killer bees are on the way. Scientists have no idea what to do with them yet. There must be a way.
We know from the passage that killer bees will spread to the United States ______.
A．from north
B．from south
C．from west
D．from east
A．features
B．appearances
C．virtues
D．characteristics
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the followingpassage:
It is difficult to imagine what life would belike without memory. (78) The meanings of thou-sands of everydayperceptions, the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habitsand skills are to be found in our past experiences，which are brought into thepresent by memory.
Memory can be defined as the capacity to keepinformation available for later use. It includes not only “remembering” thingslike arithmetic or historical facts, but also involving any change in the wayan animal typically behaves. (79) Memory is involved when a rat gives upeating grain be-cause he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memoryis also involved when a six- year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.
Memory exists not only in humans and animalsbut also in some physical objects and ma-chines. Computers, for example,contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to comparethe memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. Theinstant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words”一ready for instant use. An averageU. S.teenagerprobably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However,this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenagerhas stored. Consider, for ex-ample ，the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.
The use of words is the basis of the advancedproblem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person’s memoryis in terms of words and combinations of words.
6. Accordingto the passage, memory is considered to be_____________.
A.the basis for decision making and problem solving
B.an ability to store experiences for future use
C.an intelligence typically possessed by human beings
D.the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words
