参考答案：
Last night a cigarette end caused a big fire in an office building. The fire had already been out of control by the time the second fire engine arrived. Some massive concrete beams began to collapse. Fortunately, no casualty was reported. Since local government has long banned smoking in al 1 offices, the police are skeptical of a mere accident. They are now seeking evidences to bear out their suspect. It will probably take the police a year to find out the cause of the fire. Anyway, it is not a piece of cake.

Reading Comprehension. 30 points, 2 points eachPassage OneThe longest bull run in a centuryof art-market history ended on a dramatic note with a sale of 56 works by Damien Hirst, Beautiful Inside My Head Forever, at Sothebys in London on September 15th 2008. All but two pieces sold, fetching more than 70m, a record for a sale by asingle artist. It was a last victory. As the auctioneer called out bids, in New York one of the oldest banks on Wall Street, Lehman Brothers, filed for bankruptcy.The world art market had already been losing momentum for a while after rising bewilderingly since 2003. At its peak in 2007 it was worth some 65 billion, reckons Clare McAndrew, founder of Arts Economics, a research firm double the figure five years earlier. Since then it may have come down to 50 billion. But the market generates interest far beyond its size because it brings together great wealth, enormous egos, greed, passion and controversy in a way matched by few other industries.In the weeks and months that followed Mr. Hirsts sale, spending of any sort became deeply unfashionable. In the art world that meant collectors stayed away from galleries and salerooms. Sales of contemporary art fell by two-thirds, and in the most overheated sector, they were down by nearly 90 in the year to November 2008. within weeks the worlds two biggest auction houses, Sothebys and Christies, had to pay out nearly 200m in guarantees to clients who had placed works for sale with them.The current downturn in the art market is the worst since the Japanese stopped buying Impressionists at the end of 1989. This time experts reckon that prices are about 40 down on their peak on average, though some have been far more fluctuant. But Edward Dolman, Christies chief cutive, says“Im pretty confident were at the bottom.”What makes this slump different from the last, he says, is that there are still buyers in the market. Almost everyone who was interviewed for this special report said that the biggest problem at the moment is not a lack of demand but a lack of good work to sell. The three Ds death, debt and divorce still deliver works of art to the market. But anyone who does not have to sell is keeping away, waiting for confidence to return.46. In the first paragraph, Damien Hirsts sale was referred to as “a last victory” because ______. A. the art market had witnessed a succession of victories B. the auctioneer finally got the two pieces at the highest bids C. Beautiful Inside My Head Forever won over all masterpieces D. it was successfully made just before the world financial crisis47. By saying “spending of any sort became deeply unfashionable” Line 1-2, Para.3, the author suggests that ____. A. collectors were no longer actively involved in art-market auctions B. people stopped every kind of spending and stayed away from galleries C. art collection as a fashion had lost its appeal to a great extent D. works of art in general had gone out of fashion so they were not worth buying48. Which of the following statement is NOT true A. Sales of contemporary art fell dramatically from 2007 to 2008. B.The art market surpassed many other industries in momentum. C. The art market generally went downward in various ways. D. Some art dealers were awaiting better chances to come.49. The three Ds mentioned in the last paragraph are ____. A. auction house favorites B. contemporary trends C. factors promoting artwork circulation D. styles representing Impressionists50. The most appropriate title for this text could be ____. A. Fluctuation of Art Prices B. Up-to-date Art Auctions C. Art Market in Decline D. Shifted Interest in ArtsPassage TwoConcern with money, and then more money, in order to buy the conveniences and luxuries of modern life, has brought great changes to the lives of most Frenchmen. More people are working than ever before in France. In the cities the traditional leisurely midday meal is disappearing. Offices, shops, and factories are discovering the great efficiency of a short lunch hour in company lunch rooms. In almost all lines of work emphasis now falls on ever increasing output. Thus the “typical” Frenchman produces more, earns more, and buys more consumer goods than his counterpart of only a generation ago. He gains in creature comforts and ease of life. What he loses to some extent is his sense of personal uniqueness, or individuality. Some say that France has been Americanized. This is because the United States is a world symbol of the technological society and its consumer products. The so called Americanizationof France has its critics. They fear that “assembly line life” will lead to the disappearance of the pleasures of the more graceful and leisurely but less productive old French style. What will happen, they ask, to taste, elegance, and the cultivation of the good things in lifeto joy in the smell of a freshly picked apple, a stroll by the river, or just happy hours ofconversation in a local caf Since the late 1950s life in France has indeed taken on qualities of rush, tension, and the pursuit of material gain. Some of the strongest critics of the new way of life are the young, especially university students. They are concerned with the future, and they fear that France is threatened by the triumph of this competitive, goods oriented culture. Occasionally, they have reacted against the trend with considerable violence. In spite of the critics, however, countless Frenchmen are committed to keeping France in the forefront of the modern economic world. They find that the present life brings more rewards, conveniences, and pleasures than that of the past. They believe that a modern, industrial France is preferable to the old. 51. Which of the following is a feature of the old French way of life A. Leisure, elegance, and efficiency. B.Elegance, efficiency, and taste. C. Leisure, elegance, and taste. D.Elegance, recreation, and taste. 52. Which of the following is NOT true about Frenchmen A. Many of them prefer the modern life style. B. They actually enjoy working at the assembly line. C. They are more concerned with money than before. D. They are more competitive than the old generation. 53. The passage suggests that ____________. A. in pursuing material gains the French are suffering losses elsewhere B. its now unlikely to see a Frenchman enjoying a stroll by the river C. the French are fed up with the smell of freshly picked apples D.great changes have occurred in the life style of all Frenchmen 54. Which of the following is true about the critics A. Critics are greater in number than people enjoying the new way of life. B. Student critics are greater in number than critics in other fields. C. Student critics have, on occasion, resorted to violent means against the trend.D. Critics are concerned solely with the present and not the future. 55. Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage A. Changes in the French Way of Life B. Criticism of the New Life Style C. The Americanization of France D.Features of the New Way of Life Passage ThreeWill the European Union make it The question would have sounded strange not long ago. Now even the projects greatest cheerleaders talk of a continent facing a “Bermuda triangle” of debt, population decline and lower growth.As well as those chronic problems, the EU face an acute crisis in its economic core, the 16 countries that use the single currency. Markets have lost faith that the euro zones economies, weaker or stronger, will one day converge thanks to the discipline of sharing a single currency, which denies uncompetitive members the quick fix of duation.Yet the debate about how to save Europes single currency from disintegration is stuck. It is stuck because the euro zones dominant powers, France and Germany, agree on the need for greater harmonization within the euro zone, but disagree about what to harmonize.Germany thinks the euro must be saved by stricter rules on borrow spending and competitiveness, backed by quasi-automatic sanctions for governments that do not obey. These might include threats to freeze EU funds for poorer regions and EU mega-projects and even the s。

One winter Mr and Mrs Robinson went England, and they took John there. John was seven years old then.One day it snowed. The boy went into the garden, and he played in the snow. He said, “Snow is very beautiful, but it is very cold.”Then he said, “What is this?” It is a big, round piece of glass. It is beautiful, but it is very cold, too.”But it was not glass. It was ice. It was on a bucket(桶) of water. John said, “Who put this glass here? I’m going to take it into the house.” He took the ice to his father and said, “This is a beautiful piece of glass, but it is very cold and wet. It was on a bucket of w ater in the garden.” Mr Robinson smiled and said, “Take it to the kitchen, put it in front of the stove （炉子） there, and dry it.”The boy took the ice to the kitchen and put it in front of the stove. He dried his hands, because they were very cold and wet, and then he went to the ice again. He looked at it, and then he took it to his father again. He said, “I put this glass in front of the stove, but it does got drier. It becomes wetter and smaller.”21. J ohn didn’t know what the ice was, because___________.专业班级：姓名：学号：装订线A. he was very foolishB. he was youngC. he was born in Africa D .he didn’t go to school22. One winter Mr and Mrs Robinsin went to England with_______________.A. their sonB. a boy of their friendC. their daughterD. one o f their friend’s sons23.

What did Mr. Robinson ask John to do?A He asked John to take the ice out.B He asked John to put the ice in front of the stove.C He asked John to play with the ice.D He asked John to dry his hands at once.25. After John put the ice in front of the stove, he found that it became ______.A dry B. wetter C. bigger D. colderPassage TwoDuring the day we work and play. At night we sleep. Our bodies rest while we sleep. In the morning we are ready to work and play again. Our bodies grow most while we are asleep. Children usually need more sleep. They can learn their lessons better after they have had plenty of rest. Boys and girls who are eight or nine years old need ten hours of sleep every night. Our bodies need plenty of air when we sleep. If we don’t get enough fresh air, we’ll feel tired when we wake up. While in bed we must not cover our heads. Our lungs need enough fresh air. If we open our windows at night we can have plenty of fresh air. Cool air is better than warm air. Boys and girls who want to be strong must get plenty of sleep.26. Our bodies grow most while we are______.A. eatingB. playingC. sleepingD. exercising27. Our bodies need ______ when we sleep.A.plenty of airB. foodC. waterD. drink28. What may cause us to feel tired in the morning? _____________A.Too much airB.Not enough fresh airC.Too much cold airD.Too much sleep29. What do lungs need most? _____________A. FreshB. CoveringC. Warm airD. Sleeping30. In order to get enough air at night, you should ________________A.not cover your headB.close windowsC.sleepD.sleep ten hoursPassage ThreeWe know that we have to pay for what we get. If we buy food, we have to pay for it. If a doctor treats us, we know there will be a bill to pay. These are private bills. But there are also public bills that must be paid. Public bills are paid for by the government. In return we get needed services. We all use these services without thinking how we get them. But such services cost money. We pay for these services through taxes.What would happen if everyone in a city stopped paying taxes? The water supply would stop. Water might even become unclean and impure. The streets might not be cleaned. There would be no police force to protect people and property. Schools would be closed. People would become sick and disease might spread. We would not want to live in such a city. We all want pure water and food, clean streets, and good schools. We want police to protect us from crime.These services are expensive. The bills get larger each year. We spend public money today for services that we did not have fifty years ago. For instance, we now use public money to help stop accidents in mines and shops and to help farmers.The chief duty of every government is to protect persons and property. Billions of dollars each year are spent on schools and libraries. Public money is used to pay the teachers and other public officials. Also, a large amount of public fund is spent on roads.The greatest part of the needed funds is raised by taxes. A tax is the money that we all must pay to support the government. The law orders us to pay taxes. We have no choice in the matter. Almost everyone pays some tax in one form or another.Years ago, the government made money from the sale of public lands. But most of the best public lands have now been sold. The money raised was used to help to pay the costs of the government. There are still some public lands that contain oil, coal, gas, and other natural products. They could be sold. But we want to save them for future years. So, we all must pay our share for the services that make our lives comfortable.31. Who should pay for the public bills?A. The publicB. The societyC. The governmentD. Both A and C32. Why should everyone pay taxes?A.Because water might even become unclear and impure.B.Because streets might not be cleaned and schools would be closed.C.Because people would become sick and disease might spread.D.Because the government would have funds to work for the welfare of people.33. The largest amount of public money is used to _________________A.protect persons and propertyB.stop accidents in minesC.pay the teachersD.build roads34. Which of the following about taxes is not true?A.It’s lawful that everyone pays taxes.B.The taxes raised are used for supporting the governmentC.Everyone has his right to make a decision in the matter.D.The government spent a large amount of money on road building.35. Why did the government sell public lands years ago?A.Because those public lands were not rich in natural resources.B.Because the government wanted to benefit from the sale of lands.C.Because the government had to pay all kinds of costs.D.Because people needed lands to build their houses.Passage fourEveryone knows that the favorite food in the United States is the hamburger. It seems impossible, but people eat 34 billion hamburgers a year. This is enough to make a line of hamburgers around the world four times.The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast-food restaurant. In these restaurants, people order their food, wait just a few minutes, and carry it to their tables themselves. They can eat it in the restaurant or take the food out and eat it at home, at work, or in a park. At some restaurants people can drive up beside a window. They order the food, and a worker hands it through the window. They eat it in their cars. Hamburgers are not the only kind of food that fast-food restaurants serve. Some serve fish, chicken, beef sandwiches, or Mexican food. They also serve fries (French fried potatoes) , shakes ( a drink made from milk and ice cream), soft drink and coffee.Fast-food restaurants are very popular because the service is fast and the food is inexpensive. For many people, this is more important than quality of the food. These restaurants are also popular because the food is always the same. People know that if they eat at a com pany’s restaurant in the north or south of the city, the food will be the same. If they eat in New York or San Francisco, it will still be the same.Fast service and low cost are important in the United States. One reason is that about 50 percent of all married women with children work outside the home. They are too busy and too tired to cook dinner every night.Is the food at fast-food restaurants good for you? In general, it is all right, except that it has too much fat and salt.One thing is sure. People will continue to eat fast foods. In fact, now there are fast-food restaurants in countries all over the world.36. In a fast-food restaurant, people ___________.A. stand up to eatB. are served at tableC. eat in a hurryD. serve themselves37. Usually fast food is rich in _______________.A. sugar and milkB. salt and fatC. meat and saltD. beef and fish38. Fast-food restaurant is popular because ____________.A. people are free to order their foodB. the quality of the food is goodC. it is cheaper and faster to have meals thereD. people can find fast food restaurants everywhere.39. Which of the following sentences is not correct?A. The service is fast and the food is cheaper in fast-food restaurants.B. More people like eating fast food.C.

Each passage is followed by five questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice by writing the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet(机读纸).7．Passage OnePeople have grown taller over the last century, with South Korean women shooting up by more than 20cm on average, and Iranian men gaining 16.5cm. A global study looked at the average height of 18-year-olds in 200 countries in 1914 and 2014.The results reveal that while Swedes were the tallest people in the world in 1914, Dutch men have risen from 12th place to claim top spot with an average height of 182.5cm. Larvian women, meanwhile, rose from 28th place in 1914 to become the tallest in the world a century later, with an average height of 169.8cm.James Bentham, a co-author of the research from Imperial College, London, says the global trend is likely to be due primarily to improvements in nutrition and healthcare. “An individual's genetics has a big influence on their height, but once you average over whole populations, genetics plays a less key role” he added.A little extra height brings a number of advantages, says Elio Riboli of Imperial College. “Being taller is associated with longer life expectancy,” he said. “This is largely due to a lower risk ofdying of cardiovascular (心血管的) disease among taller people.”But while height has increased around the world, the trend in many countries of north and sub-Saharan Africa causes concern, says Riboli. While height increased in Uganda and Niger during the early 20th century, the trend has reversed in recent years, with height decreasing among 18-year-olds.“One reason for these decreases in height is the economic situation in the 1980s,” said Alexander Moradi of the University of Sussex. The nutritional and health crises that followed the policy of structural adjustment, he says, led to many children and teenagers failing to reach their full potential in terms of height.Bentham believe the global trend of increasing height has important implications. “How tall we are now is strongly influenced by the environment we grew up in,” he said. “If we give children the best possible start in life now, they will be healthier and more productive for decades to come.”（5分）(1)．What does the global study tell us about people’s height in the last hundred years?（1分）A．There is a remarkable difference across continents.B．There has been a marked increase in most countries.C．The increase in people’s height has been quickening.D．The increase in women’s height is bigger than in men’s.(2)．What does James Bentham say about genetics in the increase of people’s height?（1分）A．It counts less than generally thought.B．It outweighs nutrition and healthcare.C．It impacts more on an individual than on population.D．It plays a more significant role in females than in males.(3)．What does Elio Riboli say about taller people?（1分）A．They tend to live longer.B．They enjoy an easier life.C．They generally risk fewer fatal diseases.D．They have greater expectations in life.(4)．What do we learn about 18-year-olds in Uganda and Niger?（1分）A．They grow up slower than their peers in other countries.B．They are actually shorter than their earlier generations.C．They find it hard to bring their potential into full play.D．They have experienced many changes of government.(5)．What does James Bentham suggest we do?（1分）A．Watch closely the global trend in children's development.B．Make sure that our children grow up to their full height.C．Try every means possible to improve our environment.D．Ensure our children grow up in an ideal environment.8．Passage TwoIf you were like most children, you probably got upset when your mother called you by a sibling's (兄弟姐妹) name. How could she not know you? Did it mean she loved you less?Probably not. According to the first research to tackle this topic head-on, misnaming the most familiar people in our life is a common cognitive (认知的) error that has to do with how our memories classify and store familiar names.The study, published online in April in the journal Memory and Cognition, found that the “wrong” name is not random but is invariably fished out from the same relationship pond: children, siblings, friends. The study did not examine the possibility of deep psychological significance to the mistake, says psychologist David Rubin, “but it does tell us who’s in and who’s out of the group”. The study also found that within that group, misnamings occurred where the names shared initial or internal sounds, like Jimmy and Joanie or John and Bob. Physical resemblance between people was not a factor. Nor was gender.The researchers conducted five separate surveys of more than 1,700 people Some of the surveys included only college students; others were done with a mixed age population. Some asked subjects about incidents where someone close to them--- family or friend---had called them by another person’s name. The other surveys asked about times when subjects had themselves called someone close to them by the wrong name. All the surveys found that people mixed up names within relationship groups such as grandchildren, friends and siblings but hardly ever crossed these boundaries.In general, the study found that undergraduates were almost as likely as old people to make this mistake and men as likely as women. Older people and women made the mistake slightly more often, but that may be because grandparents have more grandchildren to mix up than parents have children. Also, mothers may call on their children more often than fathers, given traditional gender norms. There was no evidence that errors occurred more when the misnamer was frustrated, tired or angry.（5分）(1)．How might people often feel when they were misnamed?（1分）A．Unwanted.B．Unhappy.C．Confused.D．Indifferent.(2)．What did David Rubin's research find about misnaming?（1分）A．It is related to the way our memories work.B．It is a possible indicator of a faulty memory.C．It occurs mostly between kids and their friends.D．It often causes misunderstandings among people.(3)．What is most likely the cause of misnaming?（1分）A．Similar personality traits.B．Similar spellings of names.C．Similar physical appearance.D．Similar pronunciation of names.(4)．What did the surveys of more than 1,700 subjects find about misnaming?（1分）A．It more often than not hurts relationships.B．It hardly occurs across gender boundaries.C．It is most frequently found in extended families.D．It most often occurs within a relationship groups.(5)．Why do mothers misname their children more often than fathers?（1分）A．They suffer more frustrations.B．They become worn out more often.C．They communicate more with their children.D．They generally take on more work at home.得分阅卷人五、Part II Reading Comprehension Section B (共1题，共10分)9．Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Please write your answers on the Answer Sheet (机读纸).1.How you approach studying matters(A-C)2.Where you study is important(D-E)3. Bring everything you need, nothing you don’t(F-G)4. Outline and rewrite your notes(H)5. Practice by yourself or with friends(I)6.Make a schedule you can stick to(J)7. Take breaks (and rewards!)(K)8. Keep healthy and balanced(L)9. Know what the expectations are for the class(M-N)（10分）A．Students grapple with many issues in their lives, and because of all of the competingthings for your attention, it’s hard to concentrate on studying. And yet if you’re inschool, you have to do at least a little studying in order to progress from year to year.The key to effective studying isn't cramming or studying longer, but studying smarter.You can begin studying smarter with these nine proven and effective study habits.B．Too many people look at studying as a necessary task, not an enjoyment or anopportunity to learn. That's fine, but researchers have found that how you approachsomething matters almost as much as what you do. Being in the right mindset isimportant in order to study smarter,C．Sometimes you can’t “force” yourself to be in the right mindset, and it is during such times that you should simply avoid studying If you’re distracted by a relationship issue, an upcoming game, or finishing an important project, then studying is just going to be an exercise in frustration. Come back to it when you’re not preoccupied (or obsessed!) by something else going on in your life.D．A lot of people make the mistake of studying in a place that really isn’t conductive to concentrating. A place with a lot of distractions makes for a poor study area. If you try and study in your dorm room, for instance, you may find the computer, TV, or a roommate more interesting than the reading material you’ re trying to digest.E．The library, a corner in a student lounge or study hall are good places to check out. Make sure to choose the quiet areas in these places, not the loud, central gathering areas. Investigate multiple places on-campus and off-campus; don't just pick the first one you find as “good enough” for your needs and habits. Finding an ideal study place is important, because it’s one you can reliably count on for the next few years. F．Unfortunately, when you find an ideal place to study, sometimes people bring things they don’t need. For instance, while it may seem ideal to type notes into a computer to refer back to later, computers are a powerful distraction for many people because they can do so many different things. Playing games, going online, surfing the Web, and answering emails are all wonderful distractions that have nothing to do with studying. So ask yourself whether you really need a computer to take notes, or whether you can make do with the old fashioned paper and pen or pencil.G．Don’t forget the things you need to study for the class, exam or paper you’re focusing on for the study session. Nothing is more time consuming and wasteful than having to run back and forth regularly because you forget an important book, paper, or some other resource you need to be successful.H．Most people find that keeping to a standard outline format helps them boil information down to its most basic components. People find that connecting similar concepts together makes it easier to remember when the exam comes around. The important thing to remember in writing outlines is that an out-line only works as a learning tool when it is in your own words and structure. Every person is unique in how they put similar information together (called “chunking” by cognitive psychologists). So while you’re welcomed to copy other people’s notes or outlines, make sure you translate those notes and outlines into your own words and concepts. Failing to do this is what often causes many students to stumble in remembering important items. I．The old saying, practice makes perfect, is true. You can practice by yourself by testing yourself with either practice exams, past quizzes, or flash cards(depending on what kind of course it is and what's available). If a practice exam isn't available, you canmake one up for yourself and your classmates. If a practice or old exam from a course is available, use it as a guide ___do not study to the practice or old exam! Such exams help you understand the breadth of content and types of questions to expect, but are not the actual material to study for.J．Too many people treat studying as the thing to do when you get around to it or have some spare time. But if you schedule study time just as your class time is scheduled, you’ll find it becomes much less of a hassle in the long run. Instead of lastminute cramming sessions, you’ll be better prepared because you haven’t put off all the studying into one 12-hour marathon. Spending 30 or 60 minutes every day you have a class studying for that class before or after is a lot easier and will allow you to actually learn more of the material.K．Because so many people view studying as a chore or task, it’s human nature to avoid it. If, however, you find rewards to help reinforce what you’re doing, you may be pleasantly surprised by the change you may find in your attitude over time.Rewards start by chunking study time into manageable components. Studying for 4 hours at a time with no breaks is not realistic or fun for most people. Studying for 1 hour, and then taking a 5-minute break and grabbing a snack is usually more sustainable and enjoyable. Divide study time into segments that make sense and work for you. If you have to digest a whole textbook chapter, find sections in the chapter and commit to reading and taking notes on one section at a time. Maybe you only do one section in a sitting, maybe you do two. Find the limits that seem to work for you.L．It’s hard to live a balanced life while in school, I know. But the more balance you seek out in your life, the easier every component in your life becomes. If you spend all of your time focusing on a relationship or a game, you can see how easy it is to be out of balance. When you're out of balance, the things you’re not focusing on such as studying become that much harder. Don't spend all of your time studying ___ have friends, keep in touch with your family, and find interests outside of school that you can pursue and enjoy.M．Different professors and teachers have different expectations for their students. While taking good notes and listening in class are good starts, you can do better by spending some time with the instructor or professor's assistant. Talking to the instructor early on especially if you foresee a difficult course ahead ___ will help you understand the course requirements and the professor's expectations.If you get a particularly bad grade on a paper or exam, talk to the instructor. Try and understand where things went wrong, and what you can do in the future to help reduce it from happening again.Don’t forget to learn!N．Studying isn’t just about passing an exam, as most students look at it as. Studying isan effort to actually learn things, some of which you might actually care about. So whileyou’ll have to take your share of classes that have little or nothing to do with yourinterests, you should still look for interesting things to take away from every experience.(1)．___ There are always interesting things to be found in what you learn.（1分）(2)．___ You should space your work out over shorter periods of time and not try to cram all ofyour studying into just one or two sessions.（1分）(3)．___ Past test papers are only useful in that they give you a general idea of the subject areas tofocus on and help you identify the style of the questions.（1分）(4)．___ It is important to know what the professors will be expecting of you when you sign up fortheir courses.（1分）(5)．___ Studying can be a problem when you aren’t in the mood for it.（1分）(6)．___ Only bring the necessary study tools with you when you go to your ideal study place.（1分）(7)．___ Notes are only useful and helpful when they are written using your own words andconcepts.（1分）(8)．___ Finding a positive study environment is very important.（1分）(9)．___ In order to study efficiently, you have to have the right attitude.（1分）(10)．___ Information reviewed amid distractions is less likely to be remembered.（1分）得分阅卷人六、Part II Reading Comprehension Section C (共1题，共10分)10．Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

He would then take her to a dinner and a movie.Today the rules of traditional dating are less clear. Twenty years ago, if a young lady asked a young man out on a date, it was thought to be __9__.

Men often pay on the first date, but the woman may offer to go Dutch. The traditional dating style has been found much less common now.（10分）A．promising B．temptingC．local D．processE．proceed F．commentG．charm H．componentsI．allowing J．appealedK．weird L．displayM．arrange N．commenceO．magic(1)．_______（1分）(2)．_______（1分）(3)．_______（1分）(4)．_______（1分）(5)．_______（1分）(6)．_______（1分）(7)．_______（1分）(8)．_______（1分）(9)．_______（1分）(10)．_______（1分）得分阅卷人七、Part III Vocabulary and Structure (每题0.5分，共10分)Directions: In this part, there are 20 incomplete sentences.

Enthusiasm for nuclear power is particularly strong in Eastern Europe, which wants to move away from dependence on Russian oil and natural gas, and on heavily polluting coal-fired power plants. Eastern governments have begun improving existing nuclear plants or are building or planning new ones. But as Japan struggled to deal with her nuclear crises, discussion about the good and the bad of nuclear power became heated.In Germany, nuclear power has been a repeatedly argued and widely felt issue for decades。

Passage 1After much thought, I came up with a brilliant plan for Rich to meet my mother and win her over. In fact, I arranged it so my mother would want to cook a meal especially for him.One day, my mother called me, to invite me to a birthday dinner for my father. My brother Vincent was bringing his girlfriend, Lisa Lum. I could bring a friend, too.I knew she would do this, because cooking was how my mother expressed her love, her pride, her power, and her proof that she knew more than anyone else. "Just be sure to tell her later that her cooking was the best you ever tasted," I told Rich. "Believe me."The eve of the dinner, I sat in the kitchen watching her cook, waiting for the right moment to tell her about our marriage plans, that we had decided to get married next July, about seven months away. She was cubing garlic and slicing cabbage into small pieces and chatting at the same time about Auntie Suyuan: "She can only cook looking at directions. My instructions are in my fingers. I know what secret ingredients to put in just by using my nose!" And she was slicing so quickly, seemingly not paying attention to her sharp chopping knife, that I was afraid the tips of her fingers would become one of the ingredients of the purple vegetable and pork dish.I was hoping she would say something first concerning Rich. I had seen her expression when she opened the door, her forced smile as she surveyed him from head to toe, checking her judgment of him against that already given to her by Auntie Suyuan. I tried to anticipate what criticisms she would have.Rich was not only not Chinese, he was also my junior, a few years younger thanI was. And unfortunately, he looked much younger with his curly red hair, smooth pale skin, and the splash of orange freckles across his nose. He was a bit on the short side, compactly built. In his dark business suits, he looked nice but easily forgettable, like somebody's nephew at a funeral. This was why I didn't notice him the first year we worked together at the firm. But, my mother noticed everything."So what do you think of Rich?" I finally asked, holding my breath.She tossed the garlic in the hot oil, which bubbled in a loud, angry sound. "So many spots on his face," she said.I could feel the goose bumps rise on my back. "They're freckles. Freckles are good luck, you know, " I felt compelled to defend on his behalf, a bit too heatedly as I raised my voice above the noise of the kitchen."Oh?" She said innocently."Yes, the more spots the better. Everybody knows that."She considered this a moment and then smiled and spoke in a Chinese dialect: "Maybe this is true. When you were young, you got the chicken pox. So many spots, you had to stay home for ten days. So lucky, you thought."I couldn't save Rich in the kitchen. And I couldn't save him later at the dinner table either.He had brought a bottle of French wine, something he did not know my parents could not appreciate. My parents did not even own appropriate glasses for wine. And then he also made the mistake of drinking not one but two frosted glasses full, while everybody else had a half-inch "just for taste".But the worst happened when Rich criticized my mother's cooking, and he didn't even have a clue about what he had done. As is the Chinese cook's custom, my mother always made negative remarks about her own cooking. That night she chose to direct it toward her famous steamed pork and preserved vegetable dish, which she always served with special pride."Ai! This dish not salty enough, no flavor," she complained, after tasting a small bite. "It is too bad to eat."This was our family's cue to eat some and proclaim it the best she had ever made. But before we could be so diplomatic, Rich said, "You know, all it needs is a little soy sauce." And he proceeded to pour a riverful of the salty black stuff on the china plate, right before my mother's shocked eyes.And even though I was hopeful throughout the dinner that my mother would somehow see Rich's kindness, his sense of humor and charm, I knew he had failed miserably in her eyes.Rich obviously had had a different opinion on how the evening had gone. When we got home that night, after we put Shoshana to bed, he said modestly, "Well, I think we hit it off A-OK."41. After much thought, the writer came up with an idea _______.A. for her mother to call on her boyfriendB. about how to cook a meal for her friendC. for her boyfriend to meet her motherD. about how to reveal their relationship to her mother42. The writer's mother thought she was more skillful than anyone else in cooking because ________.A. she used garlic and cabbage with careB. she expressed her love, pride and power by cookingC. she needn't pay attention to her sharp chopping knife while chattingD. she knew what secret ingredients to put in43.In "I felt compelled to defend on his behalf, a bit too heatedly as I raised my voice..." (Para. 9), "heatedly" can be best explained as _________.A. warm-heartedlyB. angrilyC. criticallyD. anxiously44. When Rich poured a riverful of the salty black stuff on the china plate, it suggests that _______.A. Rich did not understand what the writer's mother really meantB. Rich understood the Chinese cooking customsC. Rich was a better cook than the writer's motherD. Rich was a little drunk45.From the writer's point of view, her boyfriend _________that night.A. did what she had expected him to doB. acted out of characterC. hit it off with her motherD. failed to win her mother overPassage 2I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the gir l sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she saw me lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from the girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadn’t tal ked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.46. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____.A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her ownD. her own had been taken away by someone47. The story took place exactly ____.A. in the teacher’s officeB. in an exam roomC. in the schoolD. in the language lab48. The teacher saw all this, so she asked the boy ____.A. to go on writing his paperB. to stop whisperingC. to leave the room immediatelyD. to stay behind after the exam49. The boy knew everything ____.A. the moment he was asked to stay behindB. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time laterD. when he was walking out of the room50. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was (were) ____.A. honestyB. sense of dutyC. seriousnessD. all of the aboveIV. Translation. (7×5')51. 你再怎么有经验，也得学习新技术。

南财实用英语期末试卷B(答案)

Part Two Reading Comprehension (40%)Passage 2Are the following statements true or false according to the passage? Write T/F accordingly.When I Was in AmericaFor most people, the holiday season is a time of joy and family reunion. For me, it is a time of mixed emotions –for I have been away from my family and friends in Iran while studying in the United States. Rather than lock myself in my loneliness, I have tried each Christmas to learn a little more about the culture of the country and know more about my American friends.A tie-clasp I still wear reminds me repeatedly of the Christmas of 1989, which was quite memorable. All my classmates had eagerly looked forward to the holiday time. I had no vacation because I was short of money. My check from home had not arrived on schedule because of the crush of holiday mail.One day I walked to the campus to pick up my mail at the International Students Office. But the all important check still had not arrived. Maria, Mexican-American student, who worked as a temporary secretary in the department when others left for their holidays, must have seen me as I left the mailbox with disappointment showing on my face. She invited me to spend Christmas Eve with her family. I accepted all too gladly.Maria’s family was not rich. They lived in a modest small house. Maria introduced me to her parents, her aunt and her sister, who welcomed me warmly. Maria’s father could only speak Spanish, so he talked to me while Maria’s sister acted as an interpreter. The kind look in his eyes and his relaxed behavior made me feel right at home.The dinner was very elaborate. Each dish had a special feature, sauce and a blend of seasonings. Maria’s aunt ate while standing at a corner of the small, old table. I felt a little uncomfortable, knowing that I was occupying her place, but her gesture expressed the sincere hospitality with which Maria’s whole family received me. After dinner, Maria chose a small package from under the Christmas tree and handed it to me. Inside I found the tie-clasp I still use to this day.Looking at the tie-clasp, I know I would always regard it as a memento of an unforgettable evening of good friendship during a hard and lonely period of my life.1.

The cash register(现金出纳机) showed her I need 99 cents, but she couldn’t figure out how to count out the coins.” I understood Mike’s concern, what we have done in this country, although unintentionally, is to create several generations of individuals most of whom have no idea how to reason, how to do simple math, how to do research, or finally how to be creative (有创造力的). The reason for this is our overuse of information technology: video games, television, digital watches, calculators, and computers. Information technology feeds us information without requiring us to think about it andlet us perform operations without understanding them.It is time for us to take a hard look at an educational system that only teaches our children how to push buttons. Our kids can’t tell time if the clock has hands. They can use calculators, but cannot add, subtract, divide to multiply. Video games have taken the place of active, imaginative play. Although most of them are technically literate, they choose not to read. They are so used to television and movies that they cannot use their imagination to stay interested in a book.It is not enough to recognize the problem. What we need is solution. The one I offer is simple to suggest, but may be impossible to carry out. We must unplug our children. If we don’t, they will never learn how to solve problems. They will never learn basic reasoning skills and will certainly not develop creativity. Instead of filling classrooms with electronics, let’s concentrate on good old-fashioned literacy—reading books. Students must be taught not only to perform computer operations by rote(死记), but to figure and reason for themselves. They must see how things work and how process leads to results; they must also stretch their imagination.[选项][答案][解析][难度]难[分数]15[子题][子题型][题干] What’s the problem of the employee of the fast food restaurant?[选项]A. She does not know how to operate the cash register.B. She is unable to solve simple math problems.C. She lacks coins for customer’s change.D. She does not know how to count coins.[答案]B[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] What is Mike’s concern?[选项]A. People now rely too much on information technologyB. Many restaurants now do not provide good serviceC. Modern technology feeds us too much informationD. We are creating people who can’t think for themselves[答案]D[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] For children to be interested in reading, they must ##.[选项]A. have an imaginative mindB. be given the right bookC. turn off their television setsD. have a large enough vocabulary[答案] A[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] What solution does the author suggest to our children’s problem?[选项]A. Get them off TV and computer gamesB. Turn off all electronic equipment at schoolC. Teach them how to learn from video gamesD. Give them freedom in the use of computers.[答案]A[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] We can see from the passage that the author believes ##.[选项]A. information technology is being overusedB. modern te chnology helps us to do things we don’t even understandC. reading benefits children more than anything elseD. electronics has no place in the classroom.[答案] C[解析][分数]3[题型]阅读理解[章节][类别]考试[题干] I was born in the city of York, in England, in the year 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. My father gave me strong advice against it, but with little effect. One day, being at Hull, I met a school-fellow who was about to sail for London in his father's ship, and he invited me to go with him, and without telling my father, I went on board.On the way to London, a storm arose, the ship was wrecked (失事), and we barely escaped with our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a vessel which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He took a fancy to me, and offered me a chance to go with him on his voyages, which I gladly accepted.A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed (被颠簸) about for many days,until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we struck a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we launched (使…下水) a boat. After we had been driven four or five miles, a mountainous wave struck us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. Though I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was dashed (被猛撞) against a rock with such force that it left me senseless. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely.[选项][答案][解析][难度]难[分数]15[子题][子题型][题干] What did the author want to do most when he was young?[选项]A. To visit Africa.B. To sail the seas.C. To practice law.D. To make a tour of London.[答案] B[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] Why did the author go on foot to London?[选项]A. The ship he took was destroyed in a storm.B. His father did not supply the fare for the journey.C. He went against his father’s strong advice not to do so.D. His school-fellow invited him to go together.[答案] A[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] Why did they launch a boat?[选项]A. they knew they were near the shore.B. the big waves were about to overturn the ship.C. their ship had been knocked about for many days on the sea.D. their ship had struck sand and was about to break into pieces.[答案]D[解析][分数]3[题干] When the author got to the mainland, he ##.[选项]A. searched everywhere for his lost companionsB. fell down on the ground senselessC. was safe and soundD. ran forward to escape being washed back into the sea[答案] C[解析][分数]3[子题型][题干] When the author finally arrived on land, he most probably ##.[选项]A. knew he was in AfricaB. did not know where he wasC. was not aware he was back in EnglandD. got in touch with his family and asked for help[答案] B[解析][分数]3[题型]完型填空[章节][类别]考试[题干] One day when Jamie came home after school, his mother had on her "worry" face.

These may include headaches,light-headedness, and chest pains. Psychological symptoms, such as anxiety, short-term depression, and inability to concentrate, may also appear. The main psychological symptom is increased irritability. People become so irritable, in fact, that they say they feel “like killing somebody.” Yet there is no evidence that quitting smoking leads to physical violence.Some people seem to lose all their energy and drive, wanting only to sleep. Others react in exactly the opposite way, becoming so over-energized they can't find enough activity to burn off their excess energy. For instance, one woman said she cleaned out all her closets completely and was ready to go next door to start on her neighbor's. Both these extremes, however, eventually level off. The symptoms may be intense for two or three days, but within 10 to 14 days after quitting, most subside. The truth is that after people quit smoking, they have more energy, they generally will need less sleep, and feel betterabout themselves. Quitting smoking not only extends the ex-smoker's life, but adds new happiness and meaning to one's current life. Most smokers state that immediately after they quit smoking, they start noticing dramatic differences in their overall health and vitality. Quitting is beneficial at any age, no matter how long a person has been smoking. The death rate of an ex-smoker decreases after quitting. If the patient quits before a serious disease has developed, his/her body may eventually be able to restore itself almost completely.1．Which of the following is the main psychological symptom of smokers who quit?A.Being light-headed.B.Being anxious.C.Being easily annoyed.D.Being violent.参考答案：C2．Why does the author offer the example of one woman in Paragraph 2?A.To tell us that smokers will be over-energetic.B.To indicate that smokers have to participate in some activities to help quit smoking.C.To show that the smokers who quit will go to extremes.D.To claim that smokers will be very helpful once they quit smoking.参考答案：C3．How do most smokers feel immediately after they quit smoking?A.They have better health and more vitality.B.They find that life is meaningless.C.They need more sleep than before.D.They visit their neighbors more often.参考答案：C4．Which of the following statements is true about ex-smokers according to the passage?A.They begin to develop some diseases after quitting smoking.B.They can benefit little from quitting if they are heavy smokers.C.They are less likely to die after quitting even if they have serious diseases.D.They may regain their health almost completely if they quit in time.参考答案：D5．What is the most suitable title of the passage?A.Danger of smoking.B.Ways to quit smoking.C.Facts about smoking.D.Withdrawal symptoms of smokers. 参考答案：D1．of_______.A.his businessB.his houseC.his gardenD.his window参考答案：C2．The Daguerreotype was_______.A.a FrenchmanB.a kind of pictureC.a kind of cameraD.a photographer参考答案：B3．If a photographer wanted to take pictures of moving things in the year of 1840s,he had to________.A.watch lots of filmsB.buy an expensive cameraC.stop in most citiesD.take many films and something else with him参考答案：D4．Mathew Brady________.A.was very lifelikeB.was famous for his unusual picturesC.was quite strongD.took many pictures of moving people参考答案：B5．This passage tells us________.A.how photography was developedB.how to show your ideas and feelings in picturesC.how to take pictures in the worldD.how to use different cameras参考答案：Abut he couldn’t find anyone. He followed h is tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV.

And some insect-carried diseases can even be dangerous・At all times, personal cleanliness is of the greatest importance. You should always wash our hands after using the toilet and before preparing or eating food. About 20-50 per cent of tourists suffer from diarrhea caused by infections of various kinds of bacteria or viruses.If you are with some friends from abroad traveling in China, you can suggest some local herbal products・ Many traditional Chinese methods have been proved to be very effective and safe in treating certain illnesses. What if your friends are reluctant to try them? Facts are the most convincing advertisement. As with Western medicine, some Chinese herbal treatments could have a satisfactory result without any danger or side effects. For instance, medicated oil is good for both headache and insect bites. It is also helpful for other sicknesses. Chinese herbal teas can soothe both an upset stomach and mild heat-stroke. Yunnan White Medicine Spray will greatly reduce the pain of a stiff neck or a broken leg. All these have been widely accepted in many other countries outside China・So bring some Chinese herbal products along in your first-aid kit and introduce them to our friends from abroad when you travel around China with them.

They were able to carry out the transplant.That night, when Cheryl was declared dead, Frank knocked at Maria 9s door.

I got into a lot of trouble for that.Although our parents disapproved of many things that we did, they usually did not get very angry. They always tried to discuss the situation with us the first time and rarely screamed at us.

I can still remember how we joked with our older brother when he first was able to grow a beard・ He was very proud of his n beard n, but we all laughed because it was nothing more than three or four blond hairs on his face.

Reading Judgment (True or False) ( 20＇)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the following 10 questions. If the statement agrees with the information given in the passage. You choose A for True; and if statement contradicts1the information given in the passage, you choose B for False.Ability to LearnPeople differ in their ability to learn. They differ in the amount of ability they have, as well as in the kind of ability they have. Some students can barely get passing marks in high school, while others earn all A?s. Certain students are successful in mathematics and science but do poorly in literature and history. Other students do well in literature and history and poorly in science and mathematics.It is hard to find out what causes these differences. Are they due to the person?s background — tothe kind of home or neighborhood in which he grew up and the kind of experiences he had? Or is a person?s abilityto learn passed on to him from his ancestors, along with such traits as the texture of his hair and the color of his eyes?Most studies of these questions seem to point to the fact that both the conditions under which a person grows up (his environment) and the traits passed on to him from his ancestors (his inheritance) determine how well the person learns. It is true that some families have an unusually large number of gifted members. But these families may live in homes in which there are books and other opportunities for learning. The parents may be concerned with their children?s success in school. In other families there are generations of people with very modest abilities. In these families, interest in learning may not be encouraged.Differences between boys and girls in ability to learn have also been reported. Generally, however, the differences have been small. Girls tend to have slightly better grades in elementary school, and they re slightly better in work skills than boys. Boys, on the average, get higher scores on mathematical learning tasks and in science and mechanics. It is doubtful that the differences reported in learning reflect physical differences between boys and girls. It is more likely that the differences in learning reflect a general feeling among people in the Western world. Certain tasks are popularly felt to be best suited to girls and others best suited to boys.It is thought by many people that children learn more easily than adults. But children are not necessarily the best learners. The ability to remember numbers, to memorize poetry, or to learn school subjects increases as people grow older. In many of these tasks a person can achieve nearly twice as much at the age of 20 as he can at the age of 10. After the age of 25 the ability to acquire new learning begins to drop somewhat. This drop continues for the rest of one?s life. But it is not the same for all subjects. The ability to learn routine tasks falls off faster thanthe ability to learn meaningful material. It also seems to be true thatpeople who are intelligent and well educated show less of a drop thanothers in ability to learn as they grow older.The rapid growth of technical and other information in this century hasmade learning particularly important. But many questions wait foranswers. Much research is going on in psychological laboratories.Psychologists want to know how memory works. In what way is an abilityto learn affected by the skills we have learned before? Do human beingshave certain inborn abilities that make it possible for them to learn someskills more easily than others?The need for learning and remembering is especially important tostudents. Perhaps your task as a student will be made easier as more isdiscovered about learning.1. Different people have different abilities to learn.A. TrueB. False2. A person?s ability to learn, as well as the traits of the textureof his hair and the color of his eyes, is inherited from his ancestor.A. TrueB. False3.

Each passage isfollowed by 5 questions. For each of them there are four choices markedA), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter. Passage 1The key to any successful garage sale (家庭旧物出售) is to get the wordout. The best means of advertising your sale is to place an ad in the local newspaper.

Printing Ads for Garage SalesPassage 2In the eighteenth—century one of the first modern economists, Adam Smith, thought that the “whole annual produce of the land and labor of every country” provided revenue to “three different orders of people: those who live by rent, those who live by wages, and those who live by profit”. Each successive stage of the industrial revolution, however, made the social structure more complicated.Many intermediate groups grew up during the nineteenth century between the upper middle class and the working class. There were small—scale industrialists as well as large ones, small shopkeepers and tradesmen, officials and salaried employees, skilled and unskilled workers, and professional men such as doctors and teachers. Farmers and peasants continued in all countries as independent groups.During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the possession of wealth inevitably affected a person?s social position. Intelligent industrialists with initiative made fortunes by their wits which lifted them into an economic group far higher than that of their working—class parents. But they lacked social training of the upper class, who despised 3them as the “new rich.”They often sent their sons and daughters to special school to acquire social training. Here their children, mixed with the children of the upper classes, were accepted by them, and very often found marriage partnersfrom among them. In the same way, a thrifty, hardworking laborer, thoughnot clever himself, might save for his son enough to pay for an extended secondary school education in the hope that he would move in a“white-collar” occupation, carrying with it a higher salary and a moveup in the social scale.In the twentieth century the increased taxation of higher incomes, thegrowth of the social services, and the wider development of educational opportunity have considerably altered the social outlook. The upperclasses no longer are the sole, or even the main possessors of wealth,power and education, though inherited social position still carries considerable prestige.6. What criterion did Adam Smith seem to go by in his classificationof social groups?A. The amount of wealthB. The amount of moneyC. The social statusD. The way of gettingmoney7. If you compare the first and second paragraph, what groups of peopledid Adam Smith leave out in his classification?A. Officials and employees?B. Peasants andfarmers. C Doctors and teachers? D. Tradesmenand landlords. 8. Who were the ?new rich? during the nineteenth and earlytwentieth centuries? A. They were still the upper class people.B. They were owners of large factories.C They were intelligent industrialists.D They wereskilled workers who made their fortune.9. According to the passage, what did those people do who intended tomake their children move up in the socialladder? A. They saved a lot of money for their children to receivehigher education. B. They tried to find marriage partners from thechildren of the upper class. C. They made greater fortunes by their wits.D. They worked even harder to acquire social training.10. In the twentieth century class differences have been partly smoothedout by ____.A. Increased income and decreased taxationB. Taxation, social services and educational opportunitiesC. Education, the increase of income and industrial developmentD. Thedecrease of the upper class populationDirections: There are 10 incomplete statements in this section.

We pay for these services through taxes.What would happen if everyone in a city stopped paying taxes? The water supply would stop. Water might even become unclean and impure. The streets might not be cleaned. There would be no police force to protect people and property. Schools would be closed. People would become sick and disease might spread. We would not want to live in such a city. We all want pure water and food, clean streets, and good schools. We want police to protect us from crime.These services are expensive. The bills get larger each year. We spend public money today for services that we did not have fifty years ago. For instance, we now use public money to help stop accidents in mines and shops and to help farmers.The chief duty of every government is to protect persons and property. More than three-fourths of the money spent by our citizens. Billions of dollars each year are spent on schools and libraries. Public money is used to pay the teachers and other public officials. Also, a large amount of public fund is spent on roads.The greatest part of the needed funds is raised by taxes. A tax is the money that we all must pay to support the government. The law orders us to pay taxes. We have no choice in the matter. Almost everyone pays some tax in one form or another.Years ago, the government made money from the sale of public lands. But most of the best public lands have now been sold. The money raised was used to help to pay the costs of the government. There are still some public lands that contain oil, coal, gas, and other natural products. They could be sold. But we want to save them for future years. So, we all must pay our share for the services that make our lives comfortable.11. Who should pays for the public bills?A. The publicB. The societyC. The governmentD. Both A and C12.

It seems impossible, but people eat 34 billion hamburgers a year. This is enough to make a line of hamburgers around the world four times.The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast-food restaurant. In these restaurants, people order their food, wait just a few minutes, and carry it to their tables themselves. They can eat it in the restaurant or take the food out and eat it at home, at work, or in a park. At some restaurants people can drive up beside a window. They order the food, and a worker hands it through the window. They eat it in their cars. Hamburgers are not the only kind of food that fast-food restaurants serve. Some serve fish, chicken, beef sandwiches, or Mexican food. They also serve fries (French fried potatoes) , shakes ( a drink made from milk and ice cream), soft drink and coffee.Fast-food restaurants are very popular because the service is fast and the food is inexpensive. For many people, this is more important than quality of the food. These restaurants are also popular because the food is always the same. People know that if they eat at a company’s restaurant in the north or south of the city, the food will be the same. If they eat in New York or San Francisco, it will still be the same.Fast service and low cost are important in the United States.
