But that is not thecase. In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more different.The Greeks were truly democratic, often without a single leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the people. The Romans weresemi-democratic. They had a governing Senate, but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders. But the construction interestsof the two cultures were also different. The Greeks tended to be moreartistic. Their buildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples, columns, and decorative forms. The Romans, on the other hand, were more engineers than artists. They concentrated theirefforts on urban planning, well-functioning water pipes, and the bestroads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures reallysimilar. Both peoples ate very well indeed: lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, healthy meals, holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact, it would probably be fair to say that they both loved life in their warm,sea-oriented climates and they both lived a full life.40. What is the first paragraph about?A. The Greek and the Roman were similar.B. People misunderstood European civilization.C. Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilization.D. European civilization influenced American civilization greatly.41. Which of the following is TRUE?A. The Romans had more political awareness.B. The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.C. The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.D. The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.42. What were the Greeks famous for?A. The overall planning of a city or a town.B. The artistic decoration of the buildings.C. The practical functions of the buildings.aD. The system of water supply and transportation.43. How are the two cultures alike?A. Both loved the sea.B. Both lived long lives.C. Both loved cookingD. Both enjoyed talking over meals.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago, manyAmericans believed that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought. Someeven thought that owing money to a store or a credit company was something to be ashamed of. Good citizens, they believed, always bought what theywanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today, however, all that has changed. Credit, as someobservers have noted, has become a way of life in the United States. More and moreAmericans now are depending on those small pieces of plastic, credit cards, to pay for large purchases such as televisions, record players or furniture. Manypeople today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant dinner, a hotel room or an airlinetrip. And there are some situations in which Americans must have creditcards. If they want the temporary use of a car, for example, they firstmust give the car rental company the number of their credit card. Thatnumber is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay Credit cards offer two major services to Americans. First of all,they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money. Second,they permit people to borrow, to have the immediate pleasure of owning something, even if they do not have enough moneyto pay for it at the time. With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them. And when the time does come to pay, mostcredit cards offer people a choice. They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between 5 and 10 percent of whatthey owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadaysaccording to the passage?A. They consider it valuable.B. They regard it as a shame.C. They think it dangerous.D. They find it quite convenient.45.Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card number?A. To prevent the overuse of the car.B. To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C. To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.D. To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned.46.What advantage can credit card holders have? A.They can choose not to pay for their purchases. B.They can easily borrow money at a lower interest.C. They can own something before they actually pay for it.D. They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.47.What is the best title for the passage?A. Credit-a Way of Life in AmericaB. Credit Services in AmericaC. Convenience of Living in AmericaD. History of Credit Cards in AmericaPassage FourAt the 1893 Columbian Exposition, a World Fair held in Chicago,chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed. It caught theeye of M. S. Hershey, who saw the potential for chocolate. He installedchocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster, and produced his firstchocolate bars in 1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to makeup new candy bars throughout the end of the 1890's and the early 1900's. But it wasWorld War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U. S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smallerdistributed to American soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers. By the end of thewar when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result from that time on and through the 1920's, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout theUnited States, and as many as 40, 000 different candy bars appeared onthe scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coastin such cities as Philadelphia, Boston, and New York. The industry soonspread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar,corn syrup, and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat ofthe candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48.Why did M. S. Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?A. He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B. He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popularC. There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D. He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair49.Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?A. The adding of new materials.B. The demand in the army during WWI.C. The purchase of new machinesD. The appearance of smaller candy bars.50.What does the underlined word "seat"in the last paragraphmost probably mean?A. Focus.B.Position. C.Chair. D.Center51.What is this passage mainly about?A. World Fair held in Chicago in 1893.B. The popularity of the American candy bar industry.oC. The candy bar industry during World War.D. The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors,creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Prince and The Pauper,and Adventuresof Huckleberry Finn. Twain passed away in 1910, leaving behind a treasure of great literature. But now, 100 years after his death, he'll have abrand-new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb it was his wish thatpublishers wait until100 years after his death to publish his memoirs ) which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than 5,000 pages, and likely won't be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain harbored some bitternessagainst former girlfriends and ex-friends. He also writes negativelyabout politicians of his day, such as Teddy Roosevelt. It's likely thathe requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published the autobiography has never been available in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the classic books. The firstvolume of the set will be available in November, and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley."There are so many biographies of Twain, and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography", editor Robert Hirst told TheIndependent. "But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote. Bypublishing Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to cometo their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52. According to Paragraph 1, which of the statements is TRUEof Mark Twain?A. He left behind lots of money.B. His works were written for children.C. His works are full of adventures.D. He is famous for his great works.53. What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the passage?54.What does the underlined word "trilogy" in Paragraph 4 mean?A. work in three volumes.B. An imaginative work.C. collection of stories.55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?A. To supplement other biographies.B. To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C. To introduce Mark Twain's works.D. To expose new discoveries about MarkTwain V.

But the air was still ftill o f smoke and fallen trees had blocked the ti ack. Jack was just going to him back when he saw something moving in the smoke. He waited.

Dr. Aiken studied a munber of couples who had been mairied for at least hventy-five year s. Each couple provided four photogiaphs-one photo of each partner at the time of th eir maniage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All bac kground was cut fiom the photos to remove any chies. The photos were then displaye d in gi oups: a random giouping of the persons at thetime of their mamage and anothe r random grouping of the same persons who took photogi aphs later. Some testees wer e asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first gioup. Their judgeme nts were no better than chance. But with the photos taken hventy-five or more years af ter the maiTiage. the testees were quite successftil with the most happily-manied coup les.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as some one else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the fa ces of their loved ones. u Another possible reason J he says, “is the common experienc e of the couples." There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21.Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos fbr the piupose ofA.imitating the coupleslifeB.grouping the couples againC.leaving no trace fbr the testeesD.giving the testees more chances22.Tlie underlined sentence u Tlieir judgements were no better than chance“ iinpl ies that the testees.A.did a good job in making theii, choices.B.had difficulty in picking out the partnersC.had no chance to make the right judgementsD.did better with the first gioup than with the second23.The underlined word “imitate” (in Para. 2) has a similai, meaning toA. copyB. changeC. knowD. suffer24.From the passage we can diaw the conclusion that.A.couples who look alike can live longerB.most partners have been proved to grow alikeC.the influence between partners can be quite strongD.happily-mamed couples are often richer than others25.The main piupose of the passage is to.A.explain why couples glow alikeB.tell how couples like each otherC.discuss the fiuiction of mamageD.describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThieeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1) “The check is in the mail”, (2) "Of coiir se ril respect you in the morning”, and (3) “It was a computer error.”Of these tlii ee little white lies, the worst is the third. Ifs the only one that can nev er be tine. Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know wha t theclerk is sure to say,“ It was a computer error." Nonsense. The computer is reporti ng nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most amioying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery st ore shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If the innocent buyer points o ut the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and o ffer the famil iar explanation: “It was a compute error.”It wasn't, of course that computerized cashier is really nothing more than an elect ric event. The eye reads the Universal Product Code-chat bar of black and white line s ina comer of the package-and then checks the code against a price list stored in m emory. If the price list is right, you'll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day—that is, somebody sits at a keyboar d and types in the prices. If the price they type in is too high, there are only two expla nations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow “a computer erroi” is supposed to e xcuse everytliing.One reason we let people hide beliind a computer is the common misperception t hat huge, modem computers are ele ctric brain with “artificial intelligence.^ At some p oint there miglit be a machine with intelligence but none exists today. The smartest co mputer on Earth riglit now is no more intelligent than your average pen. At this point i n the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has iiistnicted it to do.26.Of the three lies, the one about computer is the worst because the computer it self.A. says nonsenseB. cheats customersC. caimot make the enorD. does not admit its eiTor27.According to the author, a computerized cashier is really just.A. a machine to coimt moneyB. a machine to receive moneyC.an instnunent to print codesD.an iiistniment to read codes28.Grocery store price lists are updated by.A. a computerB. a keyboaidC. an employeeD. an electr ic brain29.The last paragraph of the passage implies that computers.A. are veiy cleverB. never make mistakesC. have a good memoryD. are controlled by men30.Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage?puters are stupid and inefficient.puter eiTors are due to its dishonesty.puters help stores update the price list.puter errors are actually human errors.Passage FourI came across an old coimtiy guidebook the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in eac h village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of sendees which were availabl e onone's own doorstep in the late Victorian coxmtryside.Nowadays a tiaveler in niral England miglit conclude that the only village tradesmen still floiuishing were either selling frozen food to the \ illagers or selling antiques to vi sitors. Nevertheless, tliis would really be a false impression. On the suiiace, there has been adecline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer's shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supeiinarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and excha nge the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supennaiket • And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value.

I had seen three especially mean-spirited things happenI hrst thought about mean-spinted people as I walked from the bus stop to the office where l work I make this walk every day.and its my fr st step away trom the comforts of home and into the tensions of the cty For me,a landmark on the route is a tiny patch of ground that was once strewn with rubbish and broken glass The city is trying to make a "pocket park" out of t by planting trees and flowers Every day this s ping.I watched the skinny saplings put out tny leaves When I wa ked past,I atways noted how big the tuhips were getting and made bets w ith myself on when they would bioom.But last Wednesday,as I reached the park I fell sick.Someone had knocked the trees to the ground and trampled the budding tulips into the dirt Someone had destroyed a bit d beauty for no reason At lunchtime on Wednesday,I witressed more meamess Along wth dozens of cther hungry.hued people,I wes waiting in line at McDon ald's Aso in line was a young mother with two tred,impatent chidren clnging tb her legs The mother was trying to catm the children,but it was obviousthat they were about to start crying The lines barely moved,and the unchline tension was building Then.one of the children began to cry and scream The litle boy'syels resounded through the restaurant,and people stared angrily at the helpless mother Finally.o ne man turned to her and said,"Lady,you shouldn't bring your kids tb a pubie place if you can't contrd them*The woman was exhausted a nd hungry Someone in ine could have helped her with her problem Instead,even though many of the customers in the restaurant were par ents themselves,they treated her lke a cnminal.The worst incident of mean -spiritedness thatl saw that day happened after I left work AsI walked to the bus stop,I approached an oid wom an huddled in a dooway She was wrapped in a dirty banket and cutched a cheap vinyl bag packed with her belongings She was one of th "street people our society leaves tb fend for themseves The Unted States,the nchestcountry on earth should not allow such suffering Some of these victims even live in cardboard bores dunng the coldest winters Approaching the woman from the opposite direction were thr ee eenagers who were laughing and taking in loud voces When hey saw the oid woman,they began tb shout crude remarks at her One of them grabbed her shopping bag and pretended to trow tout into tme street The woman stared helplessly at them,like a wounded anim al surrounded by hunters Then,having had their fun,the teenagers went on tneir wayI had seen enough of the world's coldness that day and wented tb leavetbehind At home,I hudded in the warmth of my tamily I wondere d why we al contrbute b the world's supply of petty cruety.There's enough of italready.11.

Even a skilled writer probably could n ot descnbe all the leatures that make one face different from ancther.Yet a very young chid-or even an animal,such as a pigeon-can le am to recognize taces,we al take this ability for grantedWe also lell people apart by how they behave,When we talk about someone's penor she acts.s peaks,thinks and feels that make that individual d fferent from others.Like the human face,human personalty is very complex But descnbing someone's personality in words is somewhat easier than descn bing his face.If you were asked to descnbe what a 'nice face"lboked lihe,you probably would have a difficut bme doing soBut if you were asked to descnbe a "nice person",you might begin tb think about someone who was kuind,considerato,fmendly,wam,a nd so forthThere are many words to descnbe howa person thinks,eels and acts Fordin Alport,an American psychologists,found nearly 18 000 English words charactenzing differences in people's behavior And manyof us use his infomation as a basis for descnibing,of typing.hispersonality.Bookworms.conservatives,military types-people are described with such terms People have alweys tried tb "type'each other,Actors in earty Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the vi llains(坏人)or the hero's role In tact,the words "person"and"personalty"come from the Latn persona,meaning '"mask".Today,mostt elevision and movie actors do not wear masks But we can easily tel the 'good guys trom the "bad guys'"because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions16.

Or is inteligence developed by out environment and our experience?Strangely e nough,the answer to these questions is yes To some extent our inteiligence s gven tb us at birth,and no amount of specal education can make a genius out of a chid bom with low intelligence On the other hand,a child who lves in a bonng environment will develop his intetigence less than one who lives in nich and vaned surroundings Thus the hmits of person's intelligence are hred at brth,whether or not he reaches hose lmts wil depend on his environment This view,now held by most experts,can be supported n a number of ways.It is easy tb show that irteligence s tb some extert something we are bom wth The closer the blood relatonship two people,the closer they are likety tb be in intellgence Thus f we take two unvelated people at random from the populaton,it is likety that their degree of in telligence will be completety different it.on the other hand.we take two identcal twns,they will very likely be as intelligent as each othe t.Relations like brothers and sisters.parents and chitren,usualy have smar nteligence,and thus cieafty suggests that intelligence d epends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments We mightsend one,for example,to a universty an d the other to a factory where the work is boring,We would soon find differences in intelligence developing,and thvs indicates that envircontact with each other but who are not related at all are likely tb have similar degree of intefigence.21.The wrter is in favor of the view that man's ntelligence is gven tb himA) at birthB)through educatonC)both at birth and trough educatonD)neither at birth nor through education22 Ha child is bom with low nteligence,he mayA) become a genusB) still become a genus the should be give special educationC) reach his inteligence lmits in nch surroundingsD)not reach his intelgence in his te23. In the second paragraph 'f we take two unrelated peoA) pick any two personsB) take out two differert personsC) choose two persons who are relativeD)choose two persons weh diferent inteligence24.The example of the tmins going b a universty and tb a factory separately showsA) the mportance of ther intelligenceB)the role of environmert on intelligenceC)te mportance of teir postonsD)the part that birth plays25 The best the of this passage can beA) Surroundings B)IntellgenceC)Dependence on Envronment D)Efect of EducatonPassage FourA telescope,lke a microscope.enables us to see things which we could nat see without i A microscope magnifes things(or features of ngs)which are so smal that they are invisible tb the naked eye They may be as smal as a cel or even a small group of molecules Micre n Greek,and in several English technical words,means"smal"But ele-in Greek means distant or tar away The word "television"is alsc erived from this Greek word In England,Australia,and New Zealand we cal a televsion set the "elly'.which is almost the same as the C ek word In the United Sates people cal ta TV.A telescope enables us to see objects which,though milions of tmes lbrger han ourseves,appear much smaller because they are so away Even the images of stars which we see thvrough a telescope are.of course greaty reduced in size in comparson with the stars a al size But a telescope enables us tb see stars which are invisible tb the human eye as well as gving us a brighter,clearer image of those which are visibleIn the last twenty or thirty years there has been a great improvemert in tpower d belescopes There are now me very large and powerful elescopes in existence When you see the sun nse in the morming you are eight minutes late Whatis the meanng of ths strange statement? The tact s thatitt es eight minutes tor the lght totravel trom the sun to the earthThe speed of lgrt s approxmately 186.000 mies per second When you s e a planet ith or wihout the help of a telescope you are agan too late tb see the planet as itexists when you bok at it You see it as it wa some tme eartierWhat happens when you observe stars beyond the solar system?Light trom these stars takes a much longer tme on its jpumey In many ses it takes millions of years to reach our planet Pemaps you beleve that when you see a particutar star.you and the star exist simultanec sly.But this camot be true,Between you and the star,here are many milons of mles in space.and tvs means that there s also a long h tory of several mihion years between the star and you,in other words the star whch you are bokng at now no longer exists n the fom in hich you see it Pertaps at this moment there is no star at that partcutar pont in space Stars,lie human beings.are born and die26.AmcroscopeA) may be as small as a cell or a smal group of moleculesB) is simlar to a telescopeD)enables us to see things that are too small to be seen27.

Reading Comprehension (30%)Passage One:When John and Victoria Falls arrived in New York City for one-year stay, they did not bring very many things with them. They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couples --- people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don’t like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.1.Which of the following has become one of America’s fastest growingbusinesses?A. Selling home furnishings.B. Renting furnished apartments.C. Selling used furniture.D. Renting home furnishings.2.Why do some people prefer to rent furniture?A.Because the furniture they get in this way is new.B.Because it saves them a lot of money.C.Because it saves them much trouble and money.D.Because they can always get better quality furniture in this way.3.What can you infer from the passage?A.The idea of renting furniture is not acceptable.B.Renting furniture is not popular in the couple’s home town.C.Only those who don’t have enough money rent furniture.D.People usually grow to like the furniture they have rented.4.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. rent or Buy?B. A New Way of Getting Home FurnishingsC. Furnished ApartmentsD. A New Idea5.Young people liked renting home furniture in that _______.A. They have less money.B. They don’t want to buy old furniture.C. The new furniture is of good quality.D. They don’t have much money and don’t want to buy the cheap furniture.Passage Two:For the most part, rapid economic development has been a boon. But there is a down side to development – health problems such as overweight are all becoming more prevalent, as more people take taxis to work instead of riding their bicycles, and other labor-saving devices become more popular.An increasing fast pace of life makes it difficult for people to spend time working out or playing sports. “I know exercise is good for your health,” a young lady said. “But after a busy work week, the only thing I want to do is watch some TV and go to sleep.” That attitude may explain the results of a recent nationwide study, which suggested 15 percent of urban adults I China are overweight, a large number of people over the age of 40 suffer from high blood pressure and cardiac ailments.Local researchers found that 31.2 percent of elderly respondents were getting enough exercise, but less than 9 percent of youngsters and the middle-aged got an adequate amount of physical activity.Elderly people understand the importance of protecting their health. The young people, however, are busy working and use this as an excuse to avoid exercise. In fact, physical exercise doesn’t require much time, money or a special gymnasium. People can make use of any time and any place at their convenience to take part in sports. Walking quickly, cycling, climbing the stairs and dancing are all helpful methods to enhance one’s health.The benefits of adding a little more activity to your lift are priceless. “There is no need to be an athlete, however,” a local doctor said. People should walk for 30 minutes a day and take part in other physical activity three to five times a week. He warns, however, that people in poor physical shape should start slowly, and build up over time.China has taken the need for more exercise to heart, with the government running several activities last Sunday, which was the designated World Health Day. Pamphlets and posters based on the theme“Move for Health” were distributed nationwide, encouraging people to develop a positive and healthy lifestyle.6.Rapid economic development has resulted in all the following except ____.A.an increasing number of taxi passengersB.the wide use of labor-saving devicesC.an increasingly fast pace of lifeD.people’s awareness of the importance of exercise7.Some people are getting overweight because ____.A.they are too busy to have any time for exerciseB.they are ignorant of the benefits of exerciseC.they are too weak to participate in physical activityD.they are short of money to pay for different exercises8.According to the passage, who need regular daily exercise most?A.People taking taxis to work.B.Urban adults with full-time jobs.C.Elderly people suffering from high blood pressure.D.Youngsters dreaming of becoming professional athletes.9.What is the main idea of the last paragraph but one?A.Many people are still unable to afford the cost of physical exercises.B.Nobody should take part in physical activity in order to be an athlete.C.Moderate physical exercise is usually enough for ordinary people.D.Old or sick people should only take part in physical exercises of theslowest type.10.By referring to rapid economic development as “a boon” at the beginning ofthe passage, the author means that ____.A.it has benefited the general public greatlyB.it has done harm to people’s health nationwideC.it is going faster than anyone could have imaginedD.it has helped to establish a positive and health lifestyle of the publicPassage Three:Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem – how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no conventional fuel is needed to make the campus’s six buildings comfortable.Some parts of most modern buildings – theaters and offices as well as classrooms – are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing it is called “heat recovery”. A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from some buildings andreuse it in others.Along the way, Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard-working, overweight male genius.11.Until recently, body heat has caused problems because it_____.A. was difficult to collectB. came in variety of formsC. was difficult to get rid of itD. tended to be absorbed by physical objects12.Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstowncampus?A. The heat is supplied by human bodiesB. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and otherheat-emitting objectsC. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and conventional fuelD. The heat is supplied by human bodies, other heat-emitting objects, and conventional fuel13.At the Johnstown campus, how many of the buildings are heated entirely bythe heat collection system?A. NoneB. TwoC. FourD. Six14.According to the passage, which of the following would produce theLEAST amount of heat?A. A fat female who studies hardB. A thin female who does not studyC. A fat male who does not studyD. A thin male who studies hard15.In the last paragraph, the “hottest prospect” means the____.A. most intelligent studentB. most desirable studentC. most diligent studentD. most learned studentPassage Four:The resources of the library can be helpful even when we are doing something very informal, such as trying to devise a better way to measure attitudes toward music or looking for a better way to teach mathematics. The library can be equally helpful when we are doing something very formal, such as writing a dissertation (学位论文) or preparing an article for publication in a professional journal. In either case, our goal should be to use the library as a useful tool to help us understand and solve our problem.The following sections of this chapter will describe specific resources available in many libraries. In some cases you may already be aware of a resource and may use it frequently and successfully. In other cases you may be completely unfamiliar with a resource. Your goal should be to become aware of what is available and to know how to use each of these resources to help you solve the problem they are designed to solve.When educators have a piece of information that they want to share with their colleagues, they often make this information available in professional journals or at professional meetings. It would often be useful to have access to such information, and this chapter will describe the special services that enable us to locate such information.16.The library resources can be helpful when we ______.A. want to find a better way to measure attitudes toward musicB. are preparing a paper for a professional journalC. are writing a dissertationD. All of the above17.Readers’ familiarity with different resources ______.A. is more or less the sameB. varies slightlyC. differs greatlyD. should not be different18.The author believes that ______.A. library resources should be used frequently and completelyB. library resources cannot be made good use of if they are not available tousC. one is supposed to be aware of the library resources that are usually notavailableD. one is supposed to have good knowledge and make good use of libraryresources19.When educators wish to share some information with their colleagues, theyoften ______.A. publish it in a professional journalB. organize professional meetingsC. get access to it in the libraryD. make use of some library services20.The chapter in question mainly ______.A. deals with the ways of dissertation writingB. presents information on publishing papers in professional journalsC. introduces some library servicesD. describes some professional meetingsPart III.

Many artists tried. The king looked at all the pictures. But only two he really liked, and he had to choose between them. One picture was of a calm lake. The lake was a perfect mirroring for towering mountains all around it. Overhead was a blue sky with fluffy white clouds. All who saw this picture thought that it was a perfect picture of peace. The other picture had mountains, too. But these were rugged and bare. Above was an angry sky, from which rain fell and in which lightning played. Down the side of the mountain tumbled a waterfall. This did not look peaceful at all.But when the king looked closely, he saw behind the waterfall a tiny bush growing in a crack in the rock. There, in the midst of the rush of angry water, sat the mother bird on her nest - - in perfect peace.Which picture do you think won the prize? The king chose the second picture. Do you know why?“Because, ” explained the king, “peace does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, no trouble, or hard work. Peace means to be in the midst of all those things and still be calm in your heart. This is the real meaning of peace.”75. The king offered a prize for the best picture of peace, didn’t he?76.

Drugs are unnecessary because of side-effects.( B )Whether the hair is long or short it must be brushed and regularly washed. For greasy hair especially if the owner lives in a town it may be necessary to wash the head every four or five days. Those with a dry hair can usually go a little longer but this is a matter for the individual to decide.If a woman is not able to go to the hairdresser’s very often it is important that she choose a style she can easily manage for herself and this nearly always means that the first cut must be very standard. The same applies to permanent waving(电烫). Ideally this should be carried out three or four times a year so that the hair never gets out of hand.One thing should be remembered though that is whatever you apply to the head can have some effect upon the skin and therefore anything strong should be used with care. Or you may use softer products. As for style this must be studied according to what is the latest fashion and also to suit the individual at different times of her life.Young people who have spots or skin troubles on their faces should take particular care to make sure that the hair is both clean and does not come into contact with the affected piece of skin. Hair is very difficult to keep completely clean and therefore anyone running their hands through their hair and afterwards touching their faces or letting their hair fall over their faces might spread infection(感染)from one place to another. Good hair does a lot to the effect of a face so if you want to look delightful please start with your hair.57.According to the text the most basic thing to do in hair care is to______.A. go to hairdressers very oftenB. choose better milder products for the hairC. wash and brush the hair regularlyD. keep the hair away from the skin trouble58..The best hair style ca be achieved by______.A. having the hair cut standardB. following the latest fashion to suit one’s ageC. not combing the hair with handD. not applying anything strong to the head59. Those with a dry hair can usually go a little longer” means if your hair is dry______.A. you can walk longerB. your hair can grow longerC. you don’t have to wash it as oftenD. you can grow taller( C )It could be said that the age of adventure peaked with Sir Everest Shackleton the moment hisship, the Endurance, become hopelessly locked in ice on its way to Antarctica in January 1915. For ten months the 28 men aboard Shackleton's ship waited and prayed for ice to break. When it finally did, the Endurance sank, leaving the crew homeless and adrift on a sea of ice in one of the world's most dangerous environments.In January 2000 a luxury ocean liner found itself similarly trapped in the cold waters off Antarctica. Argentine authorities sent off an icebreaker straight away from the nearest naval base, and in 24 hours, all 176passengers and crew were free. The tour company's spokespersonspun the potential disaster as a value-added reward in extreme travel. "The people on board are looking at this as sort of a great adventure, "she said.Ever since Jon Krakauer's book Into Thin Air made Everest a household name, the subculture of adventure has blown up like a Himalayan avalanche(雪崩)into public consciousness. Magazines promise "extreme" content, television, offers adventure programs, and the growing collective fascination with adventure has produced a flow of published accounts about the world's greatest adventurous journey. Nowadays more 4and more people are interested in adventure and this mass appeal makes good business sense. Today the only thing blocking a would-be adventurer's passage to Antarctica is the cost----which typically runs well over 10, 000.Despite very different implications, adventure was just as popular in Shackleton's time. He has little trouble filling the Endurance----5, 000 men are said to have responded to his recruitment (招募)notice:"Men wanted for risky journey. Small wages. Bitter cold. Long months of complete darkness. Constant danger. Safe return doubtful. "After five months drifting on ice, the crew were forced to take to their lifeboats to Elephant Island. Reaching the wasteland, Shackleton went on with one lifeboat and five of his best men 1, 300 kilometers across the bone-chilly Scotia Sea to South Georgia Island. Shivering with cold, dressed in rags, Shackleton marched into a whaling station and set about organizing a rescue expedition to Elephant Island. Almost two years after becoming shipwrecked on ice, Shackleton picked up his crew. "Not a life lost, and we have been through hell, "he remarked earnestly.63.We can learn from the first sentence of this passage that__________.A. the age of adventure began with the ship Endurance trapped in iceB. Shackleton's adventure marked the highest point of pure explorationC. the age of adventure ended with the ship Endurance trapped in iceD. Shackleton's adventure predicted that the golden age of exploration was approaching64.The word "spun" in the second paragraph can be replaced by_________.A. summed upB. judgedC. boasted aboutD. referred to65.Since Jon Krakauer's book was published_________.A. the media have got interested in the topic of adventureB. the costs of extreme travel have gone upC. Everest has got its name known to EuropeD. people have got fascinated by Himalayan avalanches66.The adventure in Shackleton's time has different implications from today's in that_________.A. Shackleton's adventure lasted longer then any other adventure nowadaysB. no one was missing during Shackleton's adventureC. Shackleton's adventure was entirely for the sake of adventureD. Shackleton enrolled volunteers more easily.KEYS16. B 17. A 18. D 19. D 20. A 21. A 22. C 23. A 24. D 25. C 26.D 27. C 28. B29. H 30. G 31. K 32. B 33. A 34. C 35. E 36. J 37. F 38. I39. A 40. D 41.

Reading Comprehension (30%)Passage One:When John and Victoria Falls arrived in New York City for one-year stay, they did not bring very many things with them. They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America’s fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couples --- people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don’t like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.1.Which of the following has become one of America’s f astest growingbusinesses DA. Selling home furnishings.B. Renting furnished apartments.C. Selling used furniture.D. Renting home furnishings.2.Why do some people prefer to rent furniture CA.Because the furniture they get in this way is new.B.Because it saves them a lot of money.C.Because it saves them much trouble and money.D.Because they can always get better quality furniture in this way.3.What can you infer from the passageA.The idea of renting furniture is not acceptable. BB.Renting furnit ure is not popular in the couple’s home town.C.Only those who don’t have enough money rent furniture.D.People usually grow to like the furniture they have rented.4.Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage BA. rent or BuyB. A New Way of Getting Home FurnishingsC. Furnished ApartmentsD. A New Idea5.Young people liked renting home furniture in that ____D___.A. They have less money.B. They don’t want to buy old furniture.C. The new furniture is of good quality.D. They don’t have much money and don’t want to buy the cheap furniture. Passage Two:For the most part, rapid economic development has been a boon. But there is a down side to development – health problems such as overweight are all becoming more prevalent, as more people take taxis to work instead of riding their bicycles, and other labor-saving devices become more popular.An increasing fast pace of life makes it difficult for people to spend time working out or playing sports. “I know exercise is good for your health,〞 a young lady said. “But after a busy work week, the only thing I want to do is watch some TV and go to sleep.〞 That attitude may explain the results of a recent nationwide study, which suggested 15 percent of urban adults I China are overweight, a large number of people over the age of 40 suffer from high blood pressure and cardiac ailments.Local researchers found that 31.2 percent of elderly respondents were getting enough exercise, but less than 9 percent of youngsters and the middle-aged got an adequate amount of physical activity.Elderly people understand the importance of protecting their health. The young people, however, are busy working and use this as an excuse to avoid exercise. In fact, physical exercise doesn’t r equire much time, money or a special gymnasium. People can make use of any time and any place at their convenience to take part in sports. Walking quickly, cycling, climbing the stairs and dancing are all helpful methods to enhance one’s health.The benefits of adding a little more activity to your lift are priceless. “There is no need to be an athlete, however,〞 a local doctor said. People should walk for 30 minutes a day and take part in other physical activity three to five times a week. He warns, however, that people in poor physical shape should start slowly, and build up over time.China has taken the need for more exercise to heart, with the government running several activities last Sunday, which was the designated World Health Day. Pamphlets and posters based on the theme “Move for Health〞 were distributed nationwide, encouraging people to develop a positive and healthy lifestyle.6.Rapid economic development has resulted in all the following except __D__.A.an increasing number of taxi passengersB.the wide use of labor-saving devicesC.an increasingly fast pace of lifeD.people’s awareness of the importance of exercise7.Some people are getting overweight because ___A_.A.they are too busy to have any time for exerciseB.they are ignorant of the benefits of exerciseC.they are too weak to participate in physical activityD.they are short of money to pay for different exercises8.According to the passage, who need regular daily exercise most BA.People taking taxis to work.B.Urban adults with full-time jobs.C.Elderly people suffering from high blood pressure.D.Youngsters dreaming of becoming professional athletes.9.What is the main idea of the last paragraph but one CA.Many people are still unable to afford the cost of physical exercises.B.Nobody should take part in physical activity in order to be an athlete.C.Moderate physical exercise is usually enough for ordinary people.D.Old or sick people should only take part in physical exercises of theslowest type.10.By referring to rapid economic development as “a boon〞 at the beginningof the passage, the author means that ___A_.A.it has benefited the general public greatlyB.it has done harm to people’s health nationwideC.it is going faster than anyone could have imaginedD.it has helped to establish a positive and health lifestyle of the public Passage Three:Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem – how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no conventional fuel is needed to make the campu s’s six buildings comfortable.Some parts of most modern buildings – theaters and offices as well as classrooms – are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and red istributing it is called “heat recovery〞. A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and reuse it in others.Along the way, Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard-working, overweight male genius.11.Until recently, body heat has caused problems because it____C_.A. was difficult to collectB. came in variety of formsC. was difficult to get rid of itD. tended to be absorbed by physical objects12.Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstown campusBA. The heat is supplied by human bodiesB. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and otherheat-emitting objectsC. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and conventional fuelD. The heat is supplied by human bodies, other heat-emitting objects, and conventional fuel13.At the Johnstown campus, how many of the buildings are heated entirely bythe heat collection system DA. NoneB. TwoC. FourD. Six14.According to the passage, which of the following would produce the LEASTamount of heat BA. A fat female who studies hardB. A thin female who does not studyC. A fat male who does not studyD. A thin male who studies hard15.In the last paragraph, the “hottest prospect〞 means the__C__.A. most intelligent studentB. most desirable studentC. most diligent studentD. most learned studentPassage Four:The resources of the library can be helpful even when we are doing something very informal, such as trying to devise a better way to measure attitudes toward music or looking for a better way to teach mathematics. The library can be equally helpful when we are doing something very formal, such as writing a dissertation (学位论文) or preparing an article for publication in a professional journal. In either case, our goal should be to use the library as a useful tool to help us understand and solve our problem.The following sections of this chapter will describe specific resources available in many libraries. In some cases you may already be aware of a resource and may use it frequently and successfully. In other cases you may be completely unfamiliar with a resource. Your goal should be to become aware of what is available and to know how to use each of these resources to help you solve the problem they are designed to solve.When educators have a piece of information that they want to share with their colleagues, they often make this information available in professional journals or at professional meetings. It would often be useful to have access to such information, and this chapter will describe the special services that enable us to locate such information.16.The library resources can be helpful when we _D_____.A. want to find a better way to measure attitudes toward musicB. are preparing a paper for a professional journalC. are writing a dissertationD. All of the above17.Readers’ familiarity with different resources __C____.A. is more or less the sameB. varies slightlyC. differs greatlyD. should not be different18.The author believes that ____D__.A. library resources should be used frequently and completelyB. library resources cannot be made good use of if they are not availableto usC. one is supposed to be aware of the library resources that are usuallynot availableD. one is supposed to have good knowledge and make good use of libraryresources19.When educators wish to share some information with their colleagues, theyoften ___A___.A. publish it in a professional journalB. organize professional meetingsC. get access to it in the libraryD. make use of some library services20.The chapter in question mainly _C_____.A. deals with the ways of dissertation writingB. presents information on publishing papers in professional journalsC. introduces some library servicesD. describes some professional meetingsPart III.
