　　2．命题要遵循“有助于高校选拔人才，有助于中学实施素质教育，有助于高等学校扩大办学自主权”的高考改革原则，确保公平、公正、科学、规范。

　　3．命题应坚持稳定为主，注重基础考查，突出能力立意，着力内容创新。要结合我省教学实际，有利于推动高中英语课程改革，考查考生进入高等学校继续学习的潜能。

　　4．命题应考虑英语学科特点，在考查考生的英语语言知识和语言技能的同时，侧重考查考生的综合语言运用能力，特别是运用英语获取信息、处理信息、分析问题和解决实际问题的能力。

　　5．命制的试卷应具有较高的信度、效度，适当的难度和必要的区分能力。

　　(III)考查阅读理解

　　Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness. In between he does all he can to make a noise in the world， and he fears silence more than anything else. Even his conversation is an attempt to prevent a fearful silence. If he is introduced to another person， and a number of pauses occur in the conversation， he regards himself as a failure， a worthless person， and is full of envy of the emptiest-headed chatterbox (喋喋不休的人). He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means no more than the buzzing of a fly， but he is anxious to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a waxwork figure (蜡塑人像).

　　The aim of conversation is not， for the most part， to communicate ideas; it is to keep up the buzzing sound. There are， it must be admitted， different qualities of buzz; there is even a buzz that is as annoying as the continuous noise made by a mosquito (蚊子). But at a dinner party one would rather be a mosquito than a quiet person. Most buzzing， fortunately， is pleasant to the ear， and some of it is pleasant even to the mind. He would be a foolish man if he waited until he had a wise thought to take part in the buzzing with his neighbors.

　　Those who hate to pick up the weather as a conversational opening seem to me not to know the reason why human beings wish to talk. Very few human beings join in a conversation in the hope of learning anything new. Some of them are content if they are merely allowed to go on making a noise into other people’s ears， though they have nothing to tell them except that they have seen two or three new plays or that they had food in a Swiss hotel. At the end of an evening during which they have said nothing meaningful for a long time， they just prove themselves to be successful conversationists.

　　1.According to the author， people make conversation to ____.

　　A. exchange ideas

　　B. prove their value

　　C. achieve success in life

　　D. overcome their fear of silence

　　2.By “the buzzing of a fly” (Para.1)， the author means “___”.

　　A. the noise of an insect

　　B. a low whispering sound

　　C. meaningless talks

　　D. the voice of a chatterbox

　　3. According to the passage， people usually talk to their neighbors ______.

　　A. about whatever they have prepared

　　B. about whatever they want to

　　C.in the hope of learning something new

　　D. in the hope of getting on well

　　4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?

　　A.To discuss why people like talking about weather.

　　B.To encourage people to join in conversations.

　　C.To persuade people to stop making noises.

　　D.To explain why people keep talking.

　　【答案】1. D 2. C 3. B 4. D
