ID. Reading Comprehension
Directions ： Each of the passages below is followed by some questions. For each question there are four answers
look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
21. This passage is mainly about __________ .
A. how to interpret what people say
B. what to do when you listen to others talking
C. how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people
D. why wc go wrong with people sometimes
22. According to the author, the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that
B. didn't try D. hadn't tried
marked A, B. C andl). Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. (20 points)
Questions 21 ?25 are based on the following passage.
We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when 1 broke up with Helen?" "When 1 got that great job, did Jim really fee l good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” "And Pau l - why didn't I realize that he was friendly just because I had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late.
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You're a lucky dog. " That's being friendly. But a “lucky dog”？ There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But br inging in the "dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.
“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for* ? is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.
But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important. It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good
B.take a good look at the person talking
C.mind his tone, his posture and the look in his eyes
D.examine the real meaning of what he says based on his
manner, his tone and his posture
25.The author most probably is a _______ .
A. teacher
B. psychologist
C. philosopher I), doctor
Questions 26~30 are based on the following passage.
There is no doubt that adults, and even highly educated adults, vary greatly in the speed and efficiency of
A.wc fail to listen carefully when they talk
B.people tend to be annoyed when wc check what they say
C.people usually state one thing but means another
D.we tend to doubt what our friends say
23.In the sentence "Maybe he doesn't see it himself. "In the second paragraph, the
pronoun "it" refers to _________ ..
A. being friendly
B. a bit of envy
C. lucky dog
D. your luck
24.When we listen to a person talking, the most important thing for us to do is
A. notice the way the person is talking
their reading. Some proceed very slowly throughout；others dash along too quickly and then have to regress(退回；回顾).Poor readers in particular may lack the ability to vary their manner of reading according to the type of reading matter and to their intentions in reading it.
A good reader can move at great speed through the text of a novel or similar light reading matter. He may be able to skim a
page, picking up a word or two here and there, and gain a general idea of what the text is about without really reading it. In reading more difficult material, with the intention o( taking in the whole of it, he will proceed more slowly, but even then he will vary his pace, concentrating on the key words and passages, perhaps rc-reading them several times and pass more quickly over the remainder.
A less efficient reader tends to maintain the same speed whatever material he reads. Consequently, even light reading matter gives him little pleasure because he reads so slowly. But this pace may be too fast for really difficult material which requires special concentration at difficult points.
A type of reading which necessitates careful attention to detail is proofreading, in which the reader, in order to detect misprints in a sample print, has to notice not so much the meaning of what he reads as the exact shape and order of letters and words in the text. This is extremely difficult for most people, since they are accustomed to overlooking such details. In fact, considerable practice is required to complete this task efficiently and it can be done only by reading very slowly, and by paying comparatively little attention to the general meaning of the text.
26.The author claims that there is a difference in reading speed ____________ ?
A.among readers who have different experience
B.among all the readers
C.between the poorly educated and the highly educated
D.among the highly educated people
27. A good reader is a reader who
A.concentrates on the wonderful part of the article
B.always reads slowly and carefully
C.changes his speed according to the kind of text
D.changes his speed according to the interest of the text
28.The author says that when reading a novel, a good reader can quickly read ___________ .
A. the general story of the book
B. the most wonderful part in the book
C. all the details in the book
D. the scientific part of the book
29.Which of the following is TRUE about a poor reader? A poor reader _____ .
A.changes his reading speed according to his reading intentions
B.can move at great speed when he reads a novel
C.tends to have a fixed reading speed no matter what he reads
D.concentrates on the key words and passages
30.Which of the following can be the title of the passage?
A. Reading for pleasure.
B. Good readers.
C. Practical reading skills.
D. Different reading manners.

C andD. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. (20 points) Questions 21 ?25 are based on the following passage.
Life in the twentieth century demands preparation. Today, all individuals in a country must have adequate schooling to prepare
them for their work as well as for their responsibilities as citizens. With this in mind* national leaders everywhere are placing more emphasis on the education of the young.
】n the United States, government officials, parents, and teachers are working hard to give the children —tomorrow's decision makers — the best preparation available.
There is no national school policy in the United States. Each of the fifty states makes its own rules and regulations for its schools* but there are many similarities among the fifty school systems. Public schools in all states are supported by taxes paid by the citizens of the individual state. In most states the children arc required to attend school until they reach the age of sixteen.
When they become six years old, children begin elementary school. After six years in elementary school, they go into junior high school and remain there for three years. The last three years of their public school education are spent in senior high school, from which they graduate at the age of eighteen.
A great number of high school graduates continue their education in one of the many colleges or
universities in the country. After four years, they receive a Bachelor * s degree. Some continue studying for a Master's degree and perhaps a Doctor*s degree.
21. At what age does a child in the United States enter elementary school?

Questions 26?30 are based on the following passage.
About 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (BA) or Bachelor of Science (BS) degree. Some students attend a
junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one
or two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore or junior.
It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA),
as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.
Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have fulltime jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.
While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student *s time, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances. clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activities.
26.The best title for this passage is __________ .
A.Part-time jobs
B. American college
C. Popular activities
D. A new system
27.The American college students like to ___________ m ost of all.
A. discuss problems on philosophy
B. play bails
C. earn enough money
D. go to the cinemas or theatres
28.How can poor students attend private schools?
A.Only by working at part-time jobs.
B.Only by working at full-time jobs.
C.Only by earning scholarships.
D.AH of above.
29.Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools?
A. Entrance examinations.
B. Taking part in many activities.
C. GPA.
D. College prep classes.
30. College education is ________ _ in America.
A. quite common
