Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 points for each item)从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案,并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.In reading the world’s great literature on human excellence and personal success, I’ve found that to launch ourselves into a life of true success we need to satisfy one basic condition: pursue our vision with stubborn (顽强的) consistency. The biggest difference between people who succeed and those who don’t is not usually talent but persistence.On my way to work one morning, I met Rudy Ruettiger, who is now a motivational speaker. He has grown up in Joliet, listening to stories about Notre Dame and dreaming of one day playing football there. Friends told him he wasn’t a good enough student to be admitted. So he gave up his dream and went to wor k in a power plant.Then a friend was killed in an accident at work. Shocked, Rudy suddenly realized that life is too short not to pursue your dreams.In 1972, at the age of 23, he enrolled at Holy Cross Junior College in South Bend, Ind. He got goodenough grades to transfer to Notre Dame, where he finally made the football team as a member of the “scout team”, the players who help the team prepare for games.Rudy was living his dream, almost. But he wasn’t allowed to suit up for the games themselves. T he next year, after Rudy requested it, the coach told Rudy he could put on his uniform for the season’s final game. And there he sat, on the Notre Dame bench during the game. A student started shouting, “We want Rudy!” Soon others joined in. Finally, at th e age of 27, with 27 seconds left to play, Rudy Ruettiger was sent onto the field-and made the final tackle (阻截). So his team won the game.When I met Rudy 17 year later, it was in the parking lot outside Notre Dame stadium (体育场), where a camera crew was filming scenes for Rudy, a motion picture about his life. His story illustrates that there is no limit to where your dreams can take you.21. The writer believes that the key to achieving success is .A. developing one’s talentB. seizing opportunitiesC. having wide visionD. sticking to one’s goal22. According to the passage, Rudy once gave up his dream of playing football for Notre Dame because .A. his friend was killed thereB. his foot was injured in an accidentC. he lacked confidence in himselfD. he failed in the entrance examination23. Rudy quit his job in the power plant because .A. his friend encouraged him toB. his outlook on life changedC. he was disappointed in his futureD. he was shocked by his friend’s death24. Rudy was transferred to Notre Dame .A. as a good studentB. as a good playerC. with the help of a coachD. with the help of a friend25. A camera crew was making a movie about Rudy’s life because .A. Rudy was the oldest player at Notre DameB. Rudy succeeded in realizing his dreamC. Rudy was the best speaker at Notre DameD. Rudy succeeded in developing his abilityPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.NASA, the U.S. space agency, believes there’s a good chance that we’re not alone in the universe. Last fall, NASA began a new project called the High Resolution Microwave Survey (HRMS). Its aim: to find evidence of life in one of the billions of galaxies in the universe.The search for intelligent life on other planets i sn’t new. It began almost 100 years ago. That’s when scientists built a huge transmitter to send radio waves into space. Scientists thought smart beings on other planets might pick up the signals.Scientists also have sent a message about humans and our solar system to a nearby constellation (星座). But because the constellation is 25,000 light years away, a return message wouldn’t reach Earth for 50,000 years! So don’t wait up for an answer.So far, no extraterrestrial (地球外的) beings that we know of have re turned our “calls.” But according to Dr. Jill Tarter, an HRMS scientist, we haven’t exactly had our ears wide open. “Now, however,” says Dr. Tarter, “we’ve built the tools we need to listen well.”Last October, Dr. Tarter switched on the largest radio rec eiver in the world. It’s an enormous metal bowl stretching 1,000 feet across a valley in Puerto Rico.Meanwhile, another NASA scientist turned on a huge radio receiver in California’s Mojave Desert. NASA hopes these big dishes-and others around the world-will pick up radio signals from new world.Dr. Frank Drake has been searching for life in outer space for years. He explains the HRMS project this way: To listen to your radio, you move the tuner on the dial until the channels come in loud and clear: Now imagine radio receivers that scan our galaxy “listening” to 14 million channels every second. That’s what NASA’s radio receivers in Puerto Rico and California are doing.But that’s not all. Powerful computers hooked to the receivers examine every signal c arefully. The computers try to match the signals to ones that scientists already recognize, such as human-made signals. If they can’t, Drake and Tarter check on them. “It could prove there is radio technology elsewhere in the universe,” says Dr. Tarter. “And that would mean we’re not alone.” 26、NASA scientists started a new project in order to _______.A、discover life in other galaxiesB、send human beings into spaceC、find evidence of a new galaxyD、confirm the number of galaxies27、According to Dr.Jill Tarter ,the reason why we haven’t received any return any return messages from outer space is that_______.A、our ears are not sharp enough to hear themB、our equipment hasn’t been good enoughC、it takes millions of yuars for them to reach usD、it takes quite a long time to send them28、Dr.Jill Tarter compares the large receiver to _______.A、the human earB、the universeC、a metal bowlD、a huge dish29、According to Dr.Frank Drake ,NASA’s radio receivers in Puerto Rico and California a re _______.A、trying to check on every channel carefullyB、moving the tuner on the dial for clear channelsC、scanning the universe for possible signalsD、picking up radio signals from new world30、The best title of this passage is ________.A、Signals from the SpaceB、The Invention of New Radio ReceiversC、The Intelligent Life in Outer SpaceD、NASA Listens for Space NeighborsPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Even a careful motorist(开汽车的人) may commit a motoring offence (违法).In this case, he will appear in a police court .This is a court ruled by a judge without a jury (陪审团).A judge has powers to pass sentence for relatively minor offences only ;serious charges are dealt with by a judge and a jury.In certain cases, a motoring offender may choose to go before a judge and a jury ,instead of appearing before just a judge .A court is also used for the conduct of preliminary investigations to dedermine whether or not a motoring offender shall appear for trial in a higher court.When his case comes up in court ,the motorist hears his name called by the clerk of the court, and comes forward to identify himself.The judge then calls for the policeman who charged the offender and asks him to give evidence.He is expected to ive an account of what happened when the offence was committed and to mention any special circumstances.For example the offence may have been partly due to the foolishness of another motorist.It would be unwise for the motoring offender to exaggerate this.It will not help his case to try to blame someone else for his own mistake.If you are guilty ,it is of course wise to admit it and say you’re sorry for committing the offence and taking up the court’s time .Judges are not heartless and a mo torist may be lucky enough to hear one say:“You’ve got good reasons ,but you have broken the law and I’ll have to impose a fine .Pay five pounds.Next case.”Some short-tempered people forget that both policemen and judges have a public duty to perform,and aren rude to them. This does not pay! A judge will not let off an offender merely because he is respectful,but a polite law-breaker may certainly hope that the judge will extend him what tolerance the law permits.31、Even a careful motorist may be asked to go to a police court for______.A、an injuryB、a motoring offenceC、refusing to pay a fineD、being rude to the policeman32、The underlined word “one ”(paragraph 5) refers to _____.A、a jury memberB、a police officerC、a motoristD、a judge33、A motoring offender is usually charged by ______.A、a judgeB、a juryC、a policemanD 、another motorist34、It is foolish for a motoring offender to _______.A 、overstate another motorist’s mistakeB 、mention someone else’s foolishnessC 、argue that he is not guiltyD 、choose to go before a jury35、If a man knows that he is guilty, he should ______.A、be polite to the policeman and the judgeB、try his best to appear before just a judgeC 、save the court’s time and pay the fineD 、admit the wrong and say sorry to the court第二部分非选择题(共50分)Ⅳ.Word Spelling(10 points,1point for two items)36. 乐意地,容易地ad. r_______37.日常工作,常规n. r______38.多数,大半n. m_______39. 永恒的,不断的a. c______40. 偏袒的,部分的a. p_______41. 漆工,画家n. p______42. 跳跃,飞跃v. l______43.易管理的a. m_______44.缩短,减少vi.

He dreamed, in the American way, of becoming a millionaire. He tried his luck on Wall Street. He was diligent and shrewd and, when he had to be, devious. He put together the deal and he did some things with an electronics acquisition that wouldn’t bear explaining. He succeeded even beyond his dream: he made twelve million dollars.2) At first the yo ung man assumed that everything was working out splendidly. “Isn’t it grand?” he said to his wife, once it was apparent that he had made twelve million dollars. His wife told him that it wasn’t grand, and he was a nobody.3) “But that’s impossible,” the young man said. “I’m a rich person. We live in an era that celebrates rich people. Rich people are shown in the newspapers in the company of movie stars and famous novelists and distinguished dress designers. The names of the richest corporate raiders are known to every schoolboy. There are rich real estate sharks whose faces appear on the covers of glossy magazines.” But his wife said that his face would not, because he was a nobody. When he stressed the fact that he had twelve million dollars, his wife retorted that a lot of people did, but they were still nobodies.4) “I could buy our way onto the committees of important charity balls,” the young man said,3“then we’d be mentioned in the columns.” “Don’t kid yourself,” his wife said. “The important committees are already filled up with people who are really rich. People like us would end up working on something like a dinner-dance to benefit the American Psoriasis (牛皮癣) Foundation.” The young man mentioned that he owned a co-op apartment on Fifth Avenue that was worth two million dollars. His wife argued that, to a certain extent, two million-dollar co-ops were a dime a dozen. Then the young man boasted of owning a stretch limousine and said it was twenty-one and a half feet long. His wife brushed the idea aside, saying that nobody famous had ever ridden in something like that ,and neither Henry Kissinger nor Calvin Klein had ever heard of him, so he was still a nobody.5) The young man was silent for a while. “Are you disappointed in me?” he finally said to his wife. “Of course I’m disappointed in you,” she said. “When you asked me to marry you , you said you would surely amount to something. How was I to know that yo u’d turn out to be a nobody?”6) For a moment the young man looked defeated. Then he squared his shoulders and cleared his throat. “I’ll make them pay attention, ” he said. “I’ll buy a professional football team and argue a lot with the coach in public. Ce lebrities will join me to watch big games from the owner’s box.” The wife ridiculed him, saying that nobody could buy a professional football team for twelve million dollars, because professional football teams cost big bucks.7) “Then I’ll buy a magazine and appoint myself chief columnist,” the young man said. “A tiny but exceedingly flattering picture of me will run next to my column every week. The owners of professional football teams will invite me to watch big games from the owner’s box.” The wife believed that he might be able to buy one of those weekly-shoppers throwaways for twelve million dollars, but not a real magazine. One couldn’t buy a real magazine for chicken feed.8) The young man was very much hurt and asked his wife whether twelve million dollars were chicken feed. But his wife insisted, “it’s not big bucks.”9) “But that’s not fair,” the young man said. “I’m a young man of humble origins who made twelve million dollars. I succeeded even beyond my dream. ” “Some of those things you did wi th the electronics acquisition probably weren’t fair either,” his wife said. “Fair isn’t being measured these days. What they measure is money.” Then the young man said, if that was the case, he would get more money by going back to Wall Street and making fifty million dollars.10) But before the young man could make fifty million dollars a man from the Securities and Exchange Commission came and arrested him for having committed insider-trading violations in the electronics acquisition.11) The young man was taken away from his office in handcuffs. A picture on the front page of the afternoon paper showed him leaving his arraignment trying to hide his face behind an $850 Italian overcoat. A long article in the morning paper used him as an example of a new breed of Wall Street traders who were the victims of their own greed, probably because of their humble origins. His friends and associates avoided him.12) Only his wife stuck by him. She tried to see the bright side. “For someone with only twelve4million d ollars,” she said to the young man, “you’re getting to be pretty well known.”Ⅳ.

Supply the missing paragraph (20 points) The following passage is incomplete with the ending paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully and write the missing paragraph in about 100 words. Make sure that your tone and diction are in unity with the passage provided. Too Many Moves My first semester of college was the worst I‘ve been through. Everything started out smoothly enough. I had made plans during the summer to share an apartment with two of my close friends from high school. We had found a nice enough apartment about two miles from campus, but before we even moved in, problems started developing that kept me on the move the entire semester. One of the two girls I was to share an apartment with was going to work instead of going to college. However, a week before we were to move in , she found out that she didn‘t get the job she had been counting on. She was forced to live at home and look for work, and two of us were stuck with higher monthly rent payments. We lasted for a month and then agreed that we couldn’t make it by ourselves. Joan moved away and I started looking around. I found another apartment and the rent wasn‘t bad. The room was small with one tiny bathroom for four people. The place was noisy, but it was the best I could afford for the time. However, one day when I returned from school, I saw smoke coming from the back of the house. The cottage had caught fire, and the fire department was putting out the last flames. My room was a charred mess; there was no way that anyone could live there for a long time. I was once more out of a place to stay, and there was still over a month of school left. After looking around all weekend for lodging, I finally gave up and moved home. I had to drive forty miles to school every day, so I almost spent as much on gas as I would have on lodging . I‘d drive to school, go to classes, and come home and sit in an empty house for a few hours. I was very bored; I’d also lost the will to study. It had been such a bad semester moving all over the place that my heart wasn‘t in school anymore. So the semester just played itself out. Ⅱ。

We inherit genes, not traits. When we say that a boy got his brown eyes from his father, we really mean that he got the genes for brown eyes from his father. Every gene must develop in an environment, and the environment influences how that gene will develop. In the case of fruit flies, the vestigial( 退化的)-wing characteristic will develop if the flies are raised at room temperature. If the flies are reared at about 92 o F( 33o C) , however, the wings will be almost normal.2. In the final analysis, the question, “ Which is more important, heredity or environment?has no meaning. There can be no “ heredity versus environment ” situation: both factors, heredity2 / 11and environment, must interact for an organism to develop.3. Still, we can get some idea of the relative contributions of heredity and environment to certain traits. To do this, we must determine the genetic mechanism for a particular trait. We must also determine how much effect the environment can have on the trait. Neither of these determinations is easy, but for a few traits they have both been made.4. In the case of D own' s syndrome, for example, we know that the presence of an extra number 21 chromosome sets limits on the development of the intelligence and largely determines certain other abnormal characteristics of the victim. Unfortunately, no amount of environmenta l manipulation can cause the victim 's intelligence to exceed a certain “subnlevel. Thus we can say that in the development of the phenotype of a person with Down' s syndrome, heredity makes a relatively great contribution —by imposing severe limits.5. But in most situations one can study, the role of the environment is very much in evidence. Identical human twins who have been reared apart show quite noticeable phenotypic differences, in personality and even in some physical characteristics.6. The problem of assessing the relative contributions of heredity and environment to human intelligence is notoriously difficult and controversial. On the one hand, many studies have shown high correlations between the intelligence of individuals and their degree of “ relatedness ” . On the other hand, the many variables encountered in studies of this type make interpretation very difficult. But some studies have found correlations suggesting environmental factors influence intelligence more than genetic factors do. So the question of intelligence and inheritance is still very much up in the air. The problems and the controversy should not, however, obscure one basic fact: intelligence, like any other trait, depends on the interaction of both genetic and environmental factors.SECTION 2 READING COMPREHENSION (40 points)IV. Directions: Skim passage 2 and read the statements given right after the passage and judge whether they are True or False. Blacken the corresponding answer you choose on your ANSWER SHEET. (10 points, 1 point for each)Passage 21. Mild stress is known to improve learning. A totally relaxed child will not be as receptive tonew information as a child experiencing mild stress. It is also known that when the stress ofworking at a job is removed when elderly people retire they age more quickly unless new activities are substituted in their lives. It is thought that senility occurs more frequently with inactivity than with continued activity. Much of the great art, inventions and discoveries has resulted from the stress of the creators. Would we have the Sistine Chapel(西斯行廷教堂) if Michaelangelo had lived a quiet stressless life?2. We must also admit that the bodily changes that occur under stress often lead to activities that could not be performed under normal circumstances. The 110-pound woman who lifts a one-ton automobile to release her child caught under the wheels could not ordinarily perform this feat; the bodily changes produced by the stress of the situation enable her to do this superhuman act. An athlete relies on the changes that occur under stress to help him run faster, tackle harder, and win the game.3. It appears that the amount of harmful stress any particular individual experiences depends upon how he views the stressful experience. If he sees it as threatening, it is a bad stress; but if he views it as a challenge, it can be a beneficial3 / 11stress. Also, his personality type plays a significant role in the determination of whether the stress is good or bad. Certain types of people appear to need stress to make their lives exciting and meaningful —it keeps them young, alive, and functioning. Other types seem to need routine, quiet, and peaceful environment.4. Should you avoid stress or encourage it? The experts don ' t haverethses answer. Since sthas always been part of the human condition and life is not static —unexpected things do happen —complete avoidance is impossible. In fact, worrying about stress is a stress itself. Some authorities suggest that everyone use meditation and relaxation techniques to lessen the effects of stress. They favor changing our busy life-style to slower-paced living, striving less, and staying put more. Other authorities state that these methods may erase the beneficial effects of stress and that if you receive gratifications from a hectic lifestyle, adopting a more relaxed routine may deprive you of needed stimuli and lower the quality of your life.5. All do agree that attitude is one of the most important factors. A positive attitude can make stress your ally. A negative attitude will make stress your enemy. Since we may never know whose advice to follow, perhaps the best course is to accept stress as inevitable, both good and bad, and to keep the stress that feels good and try to eliminate the stress that feels bad. You be your own expert!31. Total relaxation enables you to receive new information more easily than stressful circumstance.32. People age much more quickly if they are active after retirement.33. People under stress can sometimes make incredible events happen.34. Women whose weight is over 110 pounds can lift a one-ton object.35. Whether stress is good or bad is not decided by the stressful situation itself, but by how people view it.36. Stress keeps some people young, alive and lively.37. There have been controversies among the authorities over whether meditation and relaxationtech niq ues should be recomme nded.38. According to the author, stresses can not be classified into positive and negative ones.39. Stressful experiences won ' t beithwe aWtipt right attitude towards them.40. If you want to live Ion ger, please stay put and be quiet and peaceful.V. Directions: Read Passages 3 and 4 and choose the correct answer. Blacken the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET.(20 points, 1 point for each)Passage 31. In the evolution of mammals from reptiles, there was a succession of physical changes: the developme nt of warm blood, body hair in stead of scales, and the begi nning of the nursing of the young. This radical physical tran sformatio n provided mammals with a greater tolera nee for external temperature and required relianee on specialized food types. When the dominant dino saurs became ext in ct, the Age of Mammals bega n. For the rest 60 millio n years mammals expa nded into the biological vacuum which they were better equipped to exploit tha n all but afew varieties of reptiles.2. The habitat of life forms on earth has been the entire planet, conveniently dividing the world into the birds of the air, the fish of the sea, and the creatures of the land. The evolutionary process also created sea-dwelli ng mammals who appeared to reverse the process of evoluti on asthey returned to the sea. The whales ' limbs became flipperlike, and they lost the hair on their4 / 11bodies, suit ing them better to aquatic life.3. On the other hand, in the course of the evolution of birds from reptiles, there was a succession of cha nges in the bone, muscle, and skin structures of the ani mals. This wholesale restructuring of some reptiles over a period of thousands of years equipped the new animals to escape their predators and to find food more easily. But the evoluti onary process did not stop there. Once adapted to flight, some birds con ti nued to cha nge and the process seemed to reverse itself. As penguins adapted to marine life, their wings changed to flippers and their feathers to a waterproof coveri ng, thus suit ing the birds for a semi-aquatic existe nee.41. The Age of Mammals began when ______ .A. ani mals evolved from reptilesB. ani mals nu rsed the youngC. an imals were more tolera nt to exter nal temperatureD. the dominant dino saurs died out42.

The temperature of the Sun is over 5,000 degrees Fahrenheit at the surface, but it rises to perhaps more than 16 million degrees at the center. The Sun is so much hotter than the Earth that matter can exist only as a gas, except at the core .In the core of the Sun, the pressures are so great against the gases that, despite the high temperature, there may bea small solid core. However, no one really kno ws, since the cen ter of the Sun can n ever be directly observed.2. Solar astronomers do know that the Sun is divided into five layers or zones. Starting at the outsides atmosphere. and going dow n into the Sun, the zones are the coro na, chromospheres, photosphere, convection zone, and fin ally the core. The first three zones are regarded as the SunBut since the Sun has no solid surface, it is hard to tell where the atmosphere ends and the main body of the Sun begi ns.3. The Sun ' s outermost layer beg ins about 10,000 miles above the visible isrface and goes outward for milli ons of miles. This is the only part of the Sun that can be see n duri ng an eclipse6 / 117 / 11such as the one in February 1979. At any other time, the corona can be see n only whe n special instruments are used on cameras and telescopes to keep out the glare of the Sun ' s rays.4. The corona is a brilliant, pearly white, filmy light, about as bright as the full Moon. Itsbeautiful rays are a sensational sight during an eclipse. The corona' s rays flash out in a brilliant fan that has wispy spikelike rays near the Sun' s north and south poles. The corona is thickest at the Sun ' s equator.5. The corona rays are made up of gases streaming outward at tremendous speeds and reach ing a temperature of more tha n 2 milli on degrees Fahre nheit. The rays of gas thi n out asthey reach the space around the planets. By the time the Sun' s corona rays reach the Earth, they are weak and in visible.51. The temperature of the Sun at the center is _____ .A. over 5,000 degrees Fahre nheitB. more tha n 5,000 degrees Cen tigradeC. over 16,000,000 degrees Fahre nheitD. more than 16,000,000 degrees Ce ntigrade52. One thing that is sure about the core of the Sun is that ______ .A. it is gasB. it is solidC. the temperature is lowD. the pressure is great 53. The zone that is NOT regarded as the Sun' s atmosphere is A. convection zoneB. corona zoneC. chromospheres zone54. Paragraph 2 is mainly about _______ .A. how the Sun evolvedC. why scie ntists study the SunD. the main body of the Sun 55. The word “ glare ” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to . A. glitterB. gleamC. blazeD. fire 56.The word“ one ” in Paragraph 3 refers to . A. the Sun B. the coronaC. an eclipseD. the surface57. The coro na can be see n _____ .A. only in an eclipseB. with n aked eyesC. with any cameras or telescopesD. with cameras equipped with special in strume nts58. Which is NOT true about the coro na?A. It is the outmost layer of the Sun.B. It is very bright as the full Moo n.C. It is as white as pearl.D. photosphere zone B. the structure of the Suns equator.D. It is the thinn est at the Sun59. The word “ sen sati onal ” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to .A. spectacularB. predictableC. bizarreD. con sta nt60. Accord ing to the passage, as the corona rays reach the pla nets, they become ___ .A. hotterB. clea nerC. thinnerD. stron gerVI. Directions: Passage 5 is taken from the textbook. Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.Blacken the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET.(10 points, 1 point for each)Passage 51. Social an xiety is the sin gle most com mon psychological problem, accord ing to the 1986results of the Stanford Shyn ess Inven tory, a survey con ducted by Philip G.Zimbardo, professor of social psychology at Stanford Uni versity of Califor nia. At a party with stra ngers, for in sta nee, three-quarters of adults have anxiety. “ Thebest estimate is that 40 percent of all Americ ans suffer from shyn ess, ” says Zimbardo.2. How can you avoid being n ervous whe n you meet people? Prepare. Preparatio n for anycom muni cati ng situati on is a must. You ' ve bee n in vited to a big dinner party in two weeks. Youknow that one of the other guests is a politicia n. Scan the n ewspapers and magaz in es; liste n to newscasts for topics of conversation in political areas. Then, at the party, pretend you ' rein in terviewer on talk show. Think of questi ons to ask that can ' t be an swered yes or no. opinion, who …”“ What do you think of …” Keep the mome ntum going.3. Whether you ' re delivering a speech, approaching your boss for a raise or an importantsocial occasi on, do your homework. The most polished, smoothly delivered, spontan eous-so unding talks are the results of many hours of work. The memorable on e-l iners and moving phrases that go down in history don 't-ooiiiuii^rouT^tBBbf inspiration.4. If you ' rmaking a presentation of any sort, begin preparing as far ahead of time aspossible. “ Goodwriting, s a ys Harvard University historian Richard Marius, “ isa kind ofwrestling with thought ” . Begin the wrestling match Twoyd ays before your presentation isusually too late to go into the ring and come up with a wi nning idea.5. “ To com muni cate, "Newaysork Times colu mnist William Samire, “ put your thoughtsin order, give them a purpose; use them to persuade, to in struct, to discover, to seduce.6. Prepare yourself as well as your material, giving special attention to your voice. A shrill,nasal tone strikes your listener like chalk screeching on a blackboard. By putting energy and resonance into your voice, you will have a positive effect. If your voice is timid or quivers with nervousness, you sense it, the audienee hears it, and you see discomfort in their eyes. With energy and enthusiasm in your voice, the listeners say ahhh, tell me more. You read approval.7. Like your voice, your appeara nce is a com muni catio n tool. For example, if you areanimated, you are more likely to see animated listeners. You give the audience the message: I ' m glad I ' m here; I ' m glad you ' re here.8 / 118. Your approach can, in fact, be a powerful weapon for deflecting hostility —from an audie nee, an in terviewer, an employer. A ben evole nt aspect says I un dersta nd and con veys good will and positive expectations. It works.9. However, don' fever assume that an audie nee, an in terviewer, your boss will be sympathetic. Always be prepared for a grilli ng. Think beforeha nd of the ten toughest questi ons you could get and be ready with your answers. And remember, when you ' resked a hostile questi on, n ever show hostility to your questi on er. If you do, you lose.10. While the hostile questioner is talking, prepare your response. Take a positive tack immediately, and make your an swers short. The in sta nt the in terviewer fini shes the questio n, begi n the an swer: first point, sec ond point, third point …b in go, your con clusi on. It 'like shooti ng a basket. Keep your eyes on the basket, and bounce, bounce, shoot to your con clusi on.11. The way you liste n gives messages about you too. Liste n with in terest, focus ing youreyes on the speaker. If you are sitting next toward the person, angle your body slightly in the chair so that you ' re turned toward the person. Animate your face with approval. It says, I you, I ' m interested in what you ' re saying.12. Once you ' re prepared for a situation, you ' re 50 percent of the way toward overcomingn ervous ness. The other 50 perce nt is the physical and men tal con trol of n ervous ness: adjust ingyour attitude so you have con fide nee, and con trol of yourself and your audie nee.13. I was in the theater for many years and always went to work with terrible stage fright —until I was in The King and I ” . While waiting offstage one night, I saw Yul Brynner, the show s star, push ing in a lunging positi on aga inst a wall. It looked as though he wan ted to knock it dow n. “ This helps me con trol my n ervous ness, ” he expla in ed.14. I tried it and, sure eno ugh, freed myself from stage fright. Not only that, but push ingthe wall seemed to give me a whole new kind of physical energy. Later I discovered that when you push aga inst a wall you con tract the muscles that lie just below where your ribs begi n to splay. I call this area the “ vital triangle ”.15. To un dersta nd how these muscles work, try this: Sit i n a straight-backed chair and lea nslightly forward. Put your palms together in front of you, your elbows pointing out the sides, _____your fingertips pointing upward, and push so that you feel pressure in the heels of your palms and un der your arms.16. Say ssssssss like a hiss. As you ' re exhaiincptirteact those muscles in the vitaltriangle as though you were rowing a boat, pulling the oars back and up. The vital triangle should tighte n. Relax the muscles at the end of your exhalati on, the n in hale gen tly.17. You can also adjust your attitude to prevent nervousness. What you say to yourselfsends a message to your audienee. If you tell yourself you ' refraid, that 'ths message your liste ner receives. So select the attitude you want to com muni cate. Attitude adjusti ng is your men tal suit of armor agai nst n ervous ness. If you en terta in only positive thoughts, you will be_________________________________________________giving out these vibes: joy and ease, enthusiasm, sincerity and concern, and authority.18. You have the power within you to become a forceful, persuasive, con fide nt comm un icator. With these tech niq ues, you will be able to ask for a raise, make a sale, deal with a family crisis, feel comfortable in social and bus in ess situati ons. Master the simple prin ciples set out here and you will n ever be n ervous aga in.61. Which of the following is true according to Paragraphs 1 and 2?A.

following passage.most people sometimes feel lonely, but it usually only lasts between minutes and a few hours.this kind of loneliness is not serious.in fact, it is quite normal.for some people, thought, loneliness can last for years.now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.the first kind of loneliness is temporary.this is the most common type.it usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention.the second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of a particular situation—for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to new place.although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.the third kind of loneliness is the most severe.unlike the second type, chronic ( 习惯性的) loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause.people who experience habitual loneliness have problem socializing and becoming close to others.unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve theircondition.psychologists agree that one important factor in loneliness is a person’s social contacts, .friends, family members, coworkers, etc.we depend on various people for different reasons.for instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities with us.however, psychologists have found that, though lonely people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more.they question their own popularity.psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart diseases.while temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous,condition.21.what can we learn from the passage about temporary loneliness?a.it requires special attention.b.it is very common and usually disappears quickly.c.it is

population, resources and environment.despite greater food output, people in the world will be poorer in many ways than they are today.for hundreds of millions of the extremely poor, the outlook for food and other necessities of life will be no better.for many it will be worse.while the economies of the developing countries are expected to grow at a faster rate than those of the industrialized nations, the total national product per head in most less developed countries remains low.the existing gap between the rich and poor nations will further widen.world food production is estimated to increase by 90 percent from 1970 to 2010.most of that increase goes to the countries that already have relativelyhigher per-head food consumption ( 消费).meanwhile, per-head consumption of food in the developing countries will scarcely improve or will actually fall far below the present inadequate level.what is worse is prices for food are expected to double.as a result, many less developed countries will have increasing difficulties meeting energy needs.for the one quarter of mankind that depends primarily on wood for fuel, the outlook is not hopeful.regional water shortage will become more severe.in the 1970-2010 period population growth will require twice as much water as it does today in nearly half the world.still greater increases would be needed to improve standards of living.development of new water supplies will become more costly.26.according to the passage, in 2010 while output of food will be greater, .a.people will have sufficient food supplies.b.the world
