Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheetwith a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 61 to 65are based on the following passage:As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing theart of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life and working from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way toavoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation (动机) and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress and such characters are obviously the best material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "flight or fight" and in more primitive (原始的)days the choices made the difference between lifeand death. The crises (危机) we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress, it involves the same response.It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued3exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart diseases have establishedlinks with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it. 61. Which of the following is a possible consequence of the increased pace of life? A) One will overwork himself.B) One will have more time for relaxation.C) One will no longer be used to the slow pace of life.D) One will get physically weaker but mentally stronger.62. What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the second paragraph?A) How stress affects us. B) What she thinks stress is.C) Why people misunderstand stress. D) How people may benefit from stress. 63. Which of the following words is closest in meaning to "withstand" in Paragraph 3? A) bear B) fear C) produce D) reduce64. Which of the following is false according to the last paragraph?A) Some people can handle stress better than others.B) Once exposed to stress, people's health is harmed.C) People react to stress both physically and mentally,D) People do not often meet life-or-death crises in modern times.65. What do you think the writer will go on to discuss in the following paragraphs? A) Ways to avoid stress. B) Ways to broaden our mind.C) Ways to keep fit physically. D) Ways to bring stress under control.Passage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:Time spent in a bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book lover or merely you are there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dustjacket (护套) is irresistible, although thismethod of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end upwith a rather dull book.This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is themain attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart's content. No assistant will approach you with inevitable (必有的) greeting: "Can I help you, sir?" You needn't buy anything you don't want.You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of booksin a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel and perhaps a book about painting—something that had only vaguely interested you up until then. Maybe that part of the book you read proved so interesting that you just had to buy it. This sort of thingcan be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section.66. What does the writer mean when he mentions a person who finds shelter in a bookshop? A) The person likes a quiet place. B) The person enjoys reading books. C) The person goes there by accident. D) The person seldom goes to bookshops. 67. What does the writer mean by his example of a book with a dust jacket?A) A dull book may have a beautiful look.4B) An interesting book can be very expensive.C) People buy books they fall in love with at first sight.D) Everyone likes to buy books with attractive appearance.68. How do people generally feel when staying in a bookshop?A) Excited. B) Relaxed. C) Carefree. D) Watchful.69. What happens if you buy books you actually do not want?A) You may think you have wasted money.B) You may develop an interest in them later.C) You may give them to whoever needs them.D) You may end up reading them from cover to cover.70. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) Bookshop: An Attractive But Wrong PlaceB) Bookshop: A Place You Can't Help Going toC) Bookshop: A Wonderful Gold Mine to ExploreD) Bookshop: An Enjoyable But Dangerous PlacePassage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:Going to court can be frightening, especially if you are a child.You may have to stand up in the witness box, and swear to tell the truth and answer questions in front of a crowd of adults. It would be even more frightening if you were the victim of a crime and you had to sit in the same courtroom with the person accused of attacking you, for instance. So the law in Britain has made it easier for children to actas witnesses. Children are allowed to tell what they know, from another room in the same courthouse. This way they do not have to face all those people in the courtroom.It works on a closed-circuit (闭路) television link, which meansthat the TV only operatesinside the court. The child witness sits in a room with a social worker in front of a TV camera. Everyone in the courtroom can see the child on a TV screen, but the child can only see the judge and the lawyers who will ask him or her questions. The system has been so successful that it will be extended to more courts this year.Another way to make it easy for a child to act as a witness is toset up a screen in the courtroom around the witness box so that thechild cannot see the defendant (^被告).Information given by children can be very important to a court trial, but before 1988 the law did not really recognize that children told the truth. It stated that anything a child said in court had to be supported by other evidence of the case.71. What is the most frightening to a child witness?A) He has to stand before many adults. B) He has to tell all he knows about the case. C) He has to answer many questions in court. D) He has to face his attacker in the same room. 72. Who is/are not allowed to appear in a courtroom together with a child witness? A) The judge of the case. B) The lawyers involved.C) The suspect of the crime. D) The social workers involved.73. Which of the following statements is false according to the passage?A) A child witness can watch TV programs while the court trial is going on.B) A child witness can appear in the courtroom without facing the defendant. C) The practice of separating the child witness will be adopted in other courts. D) Advanced technology helps separate a child witness from the main courtroom.574. What is implied in the last paragraph?A) A child witness was not considered reliable until 1988.B) Information from adults is considered true in court now.C) The court does not trust anyone without enough evidence.D) Other evidence than a child witness was more important before 1988.75. What is the main idea of the passage?A) How people in the courthouse hear a child witness.B) How a child acts as a witness in the British courthouse.C) How a child witness can appear in the courthouse calmly.D) How a child witness can tell the truth in the British courthouse.Part V Translation from English into ChineseDirections: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined parts, numbered 76 to 80. After reading the passage carefully, you should translate the numbered parts into Chinese.Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. 76) Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a lower order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.77) So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individual is handicapped 智力低下的) environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which heis capable.The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical 同卵的) twins, Peter and Mark. 78) Beingidentical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. Whenthe twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate homes. Peter was brought up by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was brought up in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to school. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. 79) This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's I.Q. was 125, twenty-five pointshigher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. 80) Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.76. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others.77. So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he isbrought up.78. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same.79. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence.80. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.Part VI Translation from Chinese into EnglishDirections: Translate the following sentences into English. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.681. 今天的气温已攀升到40度了,据说是今年以来最热的一天。

They've been hearing and using Chinese words since nursery, and it's natural to give a "ni hao" when strangers enter the classroom, “It's really fun!” says Miranda Lucas, taking a break from a lesson that includes a Chinese interview with Jackie Chan. “I'm teaching my mom to speak Chinese。

These highly trained specialists risk their lives every day fighting fires. It’s easy to see why so many people are eager to become firefighters: serving as one is heroic and adventurous. But becoming a firefighter takes more than merely strength and bravery. Before you can become an active-duty firefighter, you need to spend about 600 hours in training, over the course of 12 to 14 weeks. That’s somewhere from 40 to 48 hours per week, which makes firefighter training a full-time job. Training typically occurs at a fire academy, which is often run by the fire department, a division of the state government or a university.Much of this training is actually in the classroom. During their academic coursework at the fire academy, students study English, physics, chemistry, mathematics and fire science in relation to real-life fire situations. To be effective problem solvers and keep up good communication on the job, a fire fighter needs to be well-rounded. The requirements to enter a training program vary from department to department, but typically, firefighters must:●Be at least 18 years old (sometimes 21).●Have a high school diploma or equivalent, though many fire departments now require a college education.●Be physically fit.●Have a clean criminal record.●Have corrected 20 / 20 vision.Firefighting is a highly competitive field. Thousands of applicants apply every year across the country, but most are rejected. Many departments hire every two years, and typically give staff positions to about 30 applicants at a time. While some fire departments only require applicants to hold a high school diploma, many look for applicants with two years of college credit from an accredited college or university. Firefighting is so competitive, in fact, that many applicants obtain EMT certification before applying to be a firefighter, making them more desirable to departments that are hiring. Today, more applicants than ever have four-year degrees in fire science or a related field, which has made the field even more competitive.To enter a training program, applicants should take three exams: a written test, a Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPA T) and an ability test. The written exam typically consists of around 100 multiple choice questions and covers spatial awareness, reading comprehension, mechanical reasoning, logic, observation and memory. The primary focus of the physical ability test is agility, upper body strength and endurance. Each task is timed and tests the applicant’s ability to endure sustained physical activity. These tasks reflect what students do day in and day out in the fire academy. It’s unlikely that an applicant who struggles to complete the tasks will survive 14 weeks of training, and so it is a strong indicator of future success. Physical tests vary from academy to academy, but here are some common tasks:●Climb and descend an aerial ladder set at 60 degrees up 50 feet.●Drag a 2-inch tube charged with water 100 to 200 feet.●Operate a 30-foot extension ladder, which requires pulling a rope with tension equivalent to lifting a50-pound bag of cement.●Carry a 12-foot ladder through an obstacle course.●Perform an attic, or crawl space, crawl in full firefighter gear, including SCBA (self-contained breathingapparatus).●Complete search and rescue drills.In order to survive, firefighters must be able to think critically and clearly and solve problems quickly under extreme stress. This can be especially difficult in an actual fire, so training instructors conduct live fire training drills where they purposely set buildings on fire to give students opportunities to develop these skills. The overall goal of this behavioral training is to form good habits in students through repeated exposure, live fire training is conducted in burn buildings, which are structures, built or acquired, to be intentionally burned for firefighter training. Let’s take a look at what a typical live fire training looks like.An instructor gives a briefing of the day’s activities, and students dress in their high-tech, multi-layered specialty clothing. These clothes can withstand temperatures up to 1,200 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, the students enter the burning building. One instructor goes before the students, and one trails behind. The students place themselves on the same side of the tube and distance themselves an arm’s length from each other. Other students, who won’t be operating the tube in the structure, prepare to move the tube line forward as the crew goes further into the structure. The crew gets down into a crawling position as they enter the burning area, making sure to keep the tube line between themselves and the flames. As the students approach the area they will attack, they take their positions on the line, one operating the nozzle(喷嘴), the others supporting.The instructor gives the go-ahead and the students open the nozzle, attacking the flames. At the instructor’s command, the crew closes the nozzle positioned away from their bodies to avoid steam burns on exposed skin. The nozzle operator moves to the back of the line and everyone else moves forward. The crew repeats this process until everyone has a turn operating the nozzle. When they put out the fire, the crew leaves the structure quickly but safely, leaving only the nozzle operator and a back-up crew member behind. When it’s clear the fire is completely put out, the crew works together to retract the tube line from the structure.After the training drill, the instructor checks the students for injuries. Once everyone is checked out and accounted for, the instructor reviews the activity and provides constructive feedback.1.People can take firefighter training as a part-time job.2.The academic coursework only focuses on the skills of firefighting.3.A 30-year-old physically fit man, who was a criminal many years ago, is not allowed to enter a trainingprogram.4.The three exams which are required to enter a training program are irrelevant to the firefighter training.5.After entering the burning building, students should stay very close to each other.6.The students should make sure that the building won’t burn again before they leave.7.There are usually no students who get injured in the live firefighter training.8. Typically, firefighter training takes place ____________ run by the fire department, which is a division ofthe state government or a university.9. Today, more applicants than ever before have ____________, which has made the field even morecompetitive.10. The goal of live fire training is to form good habits in students through ____________.Part III Listening Comprehension (30 minutes,30%)Section ADirections:In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

They give their owners automatic credit in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home, across the country, and even abroad, and they make many banking services available as well. More and more of these credit cards can be read automatically, making it possible to withdraw or deposit money in scattered locations, whether or not the local branch bank is opened. For many of us the ―cashless society‖ is not on the horizon—it’s already here.While computers offer these conveniences to consumers, they have many advantages for sellers too. Electronic cash registers can do much more than simply ring up sales. They can keep a wide range of records, including who sold what, when, and to whom. This information allows businessmen to keep track of their list of goods by showing which items are being sold and how fast they are moving. Decisions to record or return goods to suppliers can then be made. At the same time these computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, allowing personnel and staffing assignments to be made accordingly. And they also identify preferred customers for promotional campaigns. Computers are relied on by manufacturers for similar reasons. Computer-analyzed marking reports can help to decide which products to emphasize now, which to develop for the future, and which to drop. Computers keep track of goods in stock, of raw materials on hand, and even of the production process itself.Numerous other commercial enterprises, from theaters to magazines publishers, from gas and electri c utilities to milk processors, bring better and more efficient services to consumers through the use of computers.57. According to the passage, the credit card enables its owner to ______.A) withdraw as much money from the bank as he wishesB) obtain more convenient services than other people doC) enjoy greater trust from the storekeeperD) cash money wherever he wishes to58. From the last sentence of the first paragraph we learn that ______.A) in the future all the Americans will use credit cardsB) credit cards are mainly used in the United States todayC) nowadays many Americans do not pay in cashD) it is now more convenient to use credit cards than before59. If computers record which hours are busiest and which employees are the most efficient, what willbusinessmen do?A) They will fire some employees and raise the work efficiency.B) They will arrange for different employees to do different jobs according to their abilities andperformance.C) They will assign more work for the employees to do.D) They will allow the personnel to do whatever work they want to do.60. The phrase ―ring up sales‖ in Line 2, Paragraph 2, most probably means ______.A) make an order of goodsB) record sales on a cash registerC) call the sales managerD) keep track of the goods in stock61. What does the passage mainly discuss?A) Approaches to the commercial use of computers.B) Conveniences brought about by computers in business.C) Significance of automation in commercial enterprises.D) Advantages of credit cards in business.Passage TwoBirds that feed in flocks commonly retire together into roosts(栖息). The reasons for roosting communally are not always obvious, but there are some likely benefits. In winter especially, it is important for birds to keep warm at night and conserve precious food reserves. One way to do this is to find a sheltered roost. Solitary roosters shelter in dense vegetation or enter a cavity –horned larks dig holes in the ground and ptarmigan burrow into snow banks –but the effect of sheltering is magnified by several birds huddling together in the roosts, as wrens, swifts, brown creepers, bluebirds, and anis do. Body contact reduces the surface area exposed to the cold air, so the birds keep each other warm. Two kinglets huddling together were found to reduce their heat losses by a quarter, and three together saved a third of their heat.The second possible benefit of communal roosts is that they act as ―information centers‖. During the day, parties of birds will have spread out to forage over a very large area. When they return in the evening some will have fed well, but others may have found little to eat. Some investigators have observed that when the birds set out again next morning, those birds that did not feed well on the previous day appear to follow those that did. The behavior of common and lesser kestrels may illustrate different feeding behaviors of similar birds with different roosting habits. The common kestrel hunts vertebrate animals in a small, familiar hunting ground, whereas the very similar lesser kestrel feeds on insects over a large area. The common kestrel roosts and hunts alone, but the lesser kestrel roosts and hunts in flocks, possibly so one bird can learn from others where to find insects swarms.Finally, there is safety in numbers at communal roosts since there will always be a few birds awake at anygiven moment to give the alarm. But this increased protection is partially counteracted by the fact that mass roosts attract predators and are especially vulnerable if they are on the ground. Even those in trees can be attacked by birds of prey. The birds on the edge are at greatest risk since predators find it easier to catch small birds perching at the margins of the roost.62. What does the passage mainly discuss?A) How birds find and store food.B) How birds maintain body heat in the winter.C) Why birds need to establish territory.D) Why some species of birds nest together.63. Ptarmigan keep warm in the winter by _________________.A) huddling together on the ground with other birdsB) building nests in treesC) burrowing into dense patches of vegetationD) digging tunnels into the snow64. The word ―magnified‖ in paragraph one is closest in meaning to _________________.A) caused B) modified C) intensified D) combined65. Which of the following statement about lesser and common kestrels is true?A) The lesser kestrel and the common kestrel have similar diets.B) The lesser kestrel feeds sociably but the common kestrel does not.C) The common kestrel nests in larger flocks than does the lesser kestrel.D) The common kestrel nests in trees; the lesser kestrel nests on the ground.66. Which of the following is a disadvantage of communal roosts that is mentioned in the passage?A) Diseases easily spread among the birds.B) Groups are more attractive to predators that individual birds are.C) Food supplies are quickly depletedD) Some birds in the group will attack the others.Part V Cloze (15 minutes,10%)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answersmarked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of the human conditions is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with life changes and daily hassles (争吵). People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off (避开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically4外教社®《大学英语》(第三版)3级学业测试find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support ― financial aid, material resources and needed services — that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.1. Interpersonal relationships are important because ________.A. they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.B. they help people to cope with life in the information eraC. they aw aken people’s desire to exchange resourcesD. they are indispensable to people’s social well-being2. Research shows that people’s physical and mental health ________.A. depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesB. relies on the social welfare systems which support themC. has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersD. is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives3. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “cushions” ?A. Lays the foundation for.B. Lessens the effect of.C. Adds up to.D. Does away with.4. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of ________.A. informational supportB. social companionshipC. instrumental supportD. the strengthening of self-respect5. Social companionship is beneficial in that ________.A. it helps strengthen our ties with relativesB. it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyableC. it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakesD. it draws our attention away from our worries and troubleQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:A good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sport to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre and music. A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out glancing at one piece, reading another article all theSFLEP College English (3rd Edition) Achievement Test (Band3) 5way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality (时事性), its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient (短暂的) value. For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.6. A modern newspaper is remarkable of all the following except its ______.A. wide coverageB. uniform styleC. speed in reporting newsD. popularity7. According to the passage, the reason why not two people really read the “same” newspaper isthat_______.A. people scan for the news they are interested inB. different people prefer different newspapersC. people are rarely interested in the same kind of newsD. people have different views about what a good newspaper is8. It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers______.A. apply reading techniques skillfullyB. jump from one newspaper to anotherC. appreciate the variety of a newspaperD. usually read a newspaper selectively9. A good newspaper offers “a variety” to readers because_______.A. it tries to serve different readersB. it has to cover things that happen in a certain localityC. readers are difficult to pleaseD. readers like to read different newspapers10. The best title for this passage would be “ _______”.A. The Importance of Newspaper TopicalityB. The Characteristics of a Good NewspaperC. The Variety of a Good NewspaperD. Some Suggestions on How to Read a Newspaper6外教社®《大学英语》(第三版)3级学业测试Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completed a university degree could find a good career quite panies toured the academic institutions, competing with each other to select graduates. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs.Most career organizations highlight three stages for graduates to follow in the process of securing a suitable career:recognizing abilities, matching these to available jobs and presenting them well to possible employers.Job seekers have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes. An honest assessment of personal interests and abilities such as creative skills, or skills acquired from work experience, should also be given careful thought.The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. To do this, graduates can study job and position information in newspapers, or they can visit a careers office, write to possible employers for information or contact friends or relatives who may already be involved in a particular profession. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.Good personal presentation is essential in the search for a good career.Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors. Where additional information is asked for, job seekers should describe their abilities and work experience in more depth, with examples if possible. They should try to balance their own abilities with the employer’s needs, explain why they are interested in a career with the particular company and try to show that they already know something about the company and its activities.When graduates go to an interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can about the possible employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer.11. “Those days are gone, even in Hong Kong” in Paragraph 1 suggests that .A. finding a good career used to be easier in Hong Kong than elsewhereB. now everyone in Hong Kong has an equal chance of finding a good jobC. graduates now face stronger competition in Hong Kong than elsewhereD. even in Hong Kong companies tour universities trying to select graduatesSFLEP College English (3rd Edition) Achievement Test (Band3)712. It is implied in Paragraph 3 that graduates should .A. aim to give a balanced account of what the employer needsB. consider careers which suit their values, interests and abilitiesC. recognize their own abilities regardless of what the employer looks forD. stress their personal attitudes and values in job applications13. According to Paragraph 4, graduates should .A. find a good position and then compare it with other careersB. ask friends or relatives to secure them a good jobC. get information about a number of careers before making comparisonsD. study the opportunities and the kinds of training that will be available14. In the last paragraph, the writer seems to suggest that .A. interviewees should appear humble if they can’t give an answerB. dressing properly is more important than being able to give an answerC. it is better for interviewees to be honest than to pretend to understandD. it is a good idea for interviewees to be boastful in their answers15. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Until recently it was quite easy for graduates to get good jobs in Hong Kong.B. Job seekers should consider as many related factors as possible.C. Businesses used to visit the universities in Hong Kong to select graduates.D. Graduates used to compete with each other for a good job in Hong Kong.Section BDirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Readthe passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice is identified bya letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.For many environmentalists, the world seems to be getting worse. They have developed a hit-list of our main fears, natural resources are (1)______ out; the population is growing, leaving less and less to eat; species are becoming (2)______ in vast numbers, and the planet’s air and water are becoming even more polluted.But a quick look at the facts shows a different picture. First, energy and other natural resources have become more (3)______ not less so, since the book The Limits to Growth published in 1972 by a group of scientists. Second, more food is now produced per (4)______ of the world’s population than at any time in history. Fewer people are (5)_______.

However, what are the actual benefits and disadvantages of distance education?Potential Benefits: The most obvious reason for trying to get an online degree are time and money. With an online course, you can join a class, do assignment on the Internet, and even communicate with classmates in chat rooms or on bulletin board. Technology has even reached the point where students can interact with other students and the teacher through high-quality web conferencing. All of these activities can be done from the comfort of your home or laptop: any time, any place.Second, getting such a degree can, in some cases, be cheaper because you don’t have to pay costs related to an overseas adventure: air-tickets, housing, local transportation, etc.Potential Disadvantages: For all these benefits, there are a number of disadvantages to this kind of learning. Above all else, you have to consider how a degree form an online school will be received by future employers because they might fell that the academic standards of such an online institution are not as high as a regular program.Second, you probably won’t have face-to-face contact with other students since everything is online. Such contact is very important in learning how to deal with many aspects of non-verbal communication that aren’t obvious in an online chat room.21. It is possible to get an online degree thanks to__ __.A. the increasing distance of educationB. the improvement of personal computersC. the available option of technologiesD. the worldwide use of the Internet22.

The number-one disadvantage of getting an online degree is that_ __A. the course may take a longer time to completeB. the degree may be less useful for finding a jobC. the study may provide little face-to-face contactD. the program may lower the academic standards24. The word “non-verbal” in the second line of the last paragraph means__ ___.A. “not using words”B. “relating to word”C. “without action”D. “not having verb”25. Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?A. Some Suggestions for Getting an Online Degree.B. Advantages and Disadvantages of an Online Degree.C. An Analysis on Weaknesses of Distance Learning.D. A comparison Between Online and Regular Education.Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Sales promotion is the process of persuading a potential customer to buy the product. It can be part of the personal selling process. The main methods of sales promotion are:Money-off coupons(优惠券) ---customers receive coupons out of newspapers or a products packing that enable them to buy the product next time at a reduced price.Competitions ---buying the product will allow the customer to take part in a chance to win a prize.Discount vouchers --- a voucher is like a money-off coupon.Free gifts --- a free product when buying another product.Point of sales materials --- e.g. posters, display stands-ways of presenting the product in its best way or show the customer that the product is thereLoyalty cards --- e.g. Nectar and Air Miles; where customers earn points for buying certain goods or shopping at certain retailers(零售商) – that can be later be exchanged for money, goods of other offers.Loyalty cards have recently become an important form of sales promotion. They encourage the customer to return to the retailer by giving them discounts based on the spending from a previous visit.Loyalty cards can offset(弥补) the discount they offer by making more sales and persuading the customer to come back. They also provide information about the shopping habits of customers –where do they shop, when and what do they buy? This is very valuable marketing research and can be used in the planning process for new and existing products.26. Generally speaking, sales promotion aims to _____.A. win as many customers as possibleB. start a personal selling processC. sell some cheap products to customersD. distinguish potential customers27. Money-off coupons can be ____.A. got every time they go shoppingB. bought at a very low priceC. found on the products packagingD. printed on a dollar note28. An airline company may most frequently use ______.A. free giftsB. money-off couponsC. loyalty cardsD. competitions29. Which sales promotion form listed below gives customers discounts?A. Money-off coupons.B. Point of sales materials.C. Competitions.D. Free gifts30. Which of the following is NOT true about loyalty card?A. The points earned for buying goods can sometimes be used as money.B. Loyalty cards enable the retailer to know customers’ shopping habits.C. Loyalty cards attract customers back to the same retailer.D. With no discounts, loyalty cards can still make more sales.Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.“It’s not what you know, but who you know that counts.”This over-simplified statement often angers those who believe that all it takes to get ahead is hard work.

cannot be explained briefly as is possible when describing drinking in many other countries.There are special laws to limit drinking and Americans enjoy their own tastes.Alcohol American laws concerning alcohol differ fromstate to state and city to city.Insome towns even states alcohol is not allowed for sale at all except for the very weak 3.2 percent alcohol beer known as ―three-two‖ beer.Some places do not allow the sale of alcohol on Sundays even in shops—you may find a bar with locks on its alcohol shelves.Other places permit alcohol to be sold on Sunday afternoons and evenings but not on Sunday mornings.In many parts of America you are not allowed to drink alcohol in a public place.That is you may not sit in a park or walk along a street while drinking beer and you cannot even take a nice bottle of wine on your picnic.And in many states you are not allowed to drink alcohol while driving or even have an opened alcohol bottle in the car.Some bars have a license only for beer and wine.Others are also allowed to sell spirits 烈性酒and as Americans say ―mixed drinks‖.Many bars have a period known as ―happy hour‖ often longer than an hour when they sell drinks at lower-than-usual prices.This is usually around 5 p.m.and may be only on certain days of the week.The Legal Drinking Age The legal drinking age differs from place to place but is generally between 18 and 21.Some places permit the consumption of beer at 18 but spirits only at 21.Others permit the consumption only of ―three-two‖ beer from 18 to 21.Young people therefore often drive from one place to another with more free drinking laws.In some parts of the US young people areallowed to vote marry raise children keep full-time jobs be tried in courts as adults join the army and even buy guns—but NOT have a glass of beer.In some places people aged between 18 and 21 are allowed to go into bars but not allowed to drink.Another even more interesting aspect of American drinking age laws is that in some places people below legal drinking ageare not even allowed to sell alcohol.Proof of Legal Drinking Age In most places these drinking laws are fairly rigidly kept.You may for example find people lining up to get into a bar and discover that the line is caused by a guard on the door who is asking everybody for identification.If you ask him why he wants to know who you are he will inform you that he actually wants proof of how old you are.On such occasions Americans often show their driving licenses which have their date of birth written on them.Beer American beer with very few exceptions ranges from the average to the terrible.There are not many types of beer in the US—‖light‖ and ―dark‖ are two terms commonly used.It is therefore normal to order beer simply by brand names.In a restaurant in fact it is quite all right to order ―a beer‖ and they will tell you what they have.It is not necessary either to specify quantity when ordering beer.If it comes in bottles or cans you will get a bottle or can and if it’s ―on tap‖可以随时取用的 you will get a glass unless you order a ―pitcher‖大酒罐.The latter is very convenient to serve since you can then take the pitcher and glasses to your table and keep filling up without going back to the bar.It is harder however to know how much you have drunk.Some beer comes in bottles with taps that look as if they need an opener but you can in fact open them up by hand—though you have to be very careful not to hurt yourself.It is possible in some stores and bars to find a wide variety of beer from all over the world especially Western Europe and Australia and it is fun to try them.Cocktail 鸡尾酒Cocktails and ―mixed drinks‖ are much more popular and stronger in the US than in Europe and visitors may not be familiar with some of the term.―On the rocks‖ as you probably know means with ice while ―straight up‖ or ―up‖ means neat and without ice.There arehundreds of different cocktails and there is no space here to list all the different names.Whiskey In America ―whiskey‖ means bourbon unless otherwise indicated.Bourbon波旁威士忌is a rather oily spirit made from corn.Rye 黑麦whiskey is called ―rye‖ and Scotch whiskey ―Scotch‖.W ine In bars wine can often be bought by the glass.Don’t be misled by names.―Chablis‖ is used to refer to white wine and ―Burgundy‖ to red—Americans seem never to have heard of white Burgundy.21.Limits on drinking in the US are the strictest in the world.22.Alcohol in some states can be sold if they are not verystrong.23.In many states people are not allowed to drink alcohol while driving but they can keep opened alcohol bottles in the car.24.The legal drinking age in the US is between 18 and 21.25.Americans often show their driving licenses if asked for identification when they get into a bar.26.You are requested to clarify how much you want when you order beer.27.Many stores and bars offer a wide variety of beer from all over the world.28.If you say ―straight up‖ when ordering cocktail in the US you mean you want it_____________ 29.In America ―whiskey‖ usually refers to a kind of oily spirit made from __________________.30.―Rye‖ is another name for _______________________________ III.Reading Comprehension Reading in Depth 20 marks 2 marks each Directions: There are 2 passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A B C and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Nursing at Beth Israel Hospital produces the best patient care possible.If we are to solve the nursing shortage hospital administration anddoctors everywhere would do well to follow Beth Israel’s example.At Beth Israel each patient is assigned to a primary nurse who visits at length with the patient and constructs a full-scale health account that covers everything from his medical history to his emotional state.Then she writes a care plan centered on the patient’s illness but which also includes everything else that is necessary.The primary nurse stays with the patient through the hospitalization keeping track with his progress and seeking further advice from his doctor.If a patient at Beth Israel is not responding to treatment it is not uncommon for his nurse to propose another approach to his doctor.What the doctor at Beth Israel has in the primary nurse is a true colleague.Nursing at Beth Israel also involves a decentralized 分散的nursing administration.Every floor every unit is a self-contained organization.There are nurse-managers instead of head nurses.In addition to their medical duties they do all their own hiring and dismissing employee advising and they make salary recommendations.Each unit’s nurses decide among themselves who will work what shifts and when.Beth Israel’s nurse-in-chief ranks as an
