Throughthe years, this gateway to the new world was enlarged from its5original 3.3 acres to 27.5 acres by landfill supposedly obtained fromthe ballast of ships, excess earth from the construction of the NewYork City subway system and elsewhere.Before being designated as the site of one of the first Federal immigration station by President Benjamin Harrison in 1890, Ellis10Island had a varied history. The local Indian tribes had called it"Kioshk" or Gull Island. Due to its rich and abundant oyster beds andplentiful and profitable shad runs, it was known as Oyster Island formany generations during the Dutch and English colonial periods. Bythe time Samuel Ellis became the island's private owner in the 1770's,15the island had been called Kioshk, Oyster, Dyre, Bucking andAnderson's Island.

One cannot wonderthat so very fine a young man, with family, fortune, everything in hisfavour, should think highly of himself. If I may so express it, he has aright to be proud.”5“That is very true,” replied Elizabeth, “and I could easily forgivehis pride, if he had not mortified mine.""Pride,” observed Mary, who piqued herself upon the solidity ofher reflecti ons, “is a very common failing I believe. By all that I haveever read, I am convinced that it is very common indeed, that human10nature is particularly prone to it, and that there are very few of uswho do not cherish a feeling of self-complacency on the score of somequality or other, real or imaginary. Vanity and pride are differentthings, though the words are often used synonymously. A person maybe proud without being vain.

For each question, decide on the basis of the passage which one of the choices best answer the question.The Second World War was a watershed event for all Americans. It brought the Great Depression to an end and marked the beginning of significant social and political changes for women and racial minorities. Chinese American women played an important role in these long-term changes.Encouraged by motives ranging from Chinese nationalism to American patriotism, Chinese American women initiated an outpouring of highly organized activities in such areas as fund-raising, propaganda, civil defense, and Red Cross work. While some women in San Francisco’s Chinatown joined in the armed services, many others went to work in businesses outside their neighborhood and in defense industries for the first time.1.The passage is mainly about(A)the contributions of Chinatown to the war effort(B)different jobs held by women during the Second World War(C)how the Second World War end the Great Depression(D)how the second World War affect Chinese American women(E)how the feminism influence Chinese American women2.The author’s attitude toward Chinese American women can be best described as(A)confused(B)envious(C)sarcastic(D)sympathetic(E)appreciative3.It is most likely that Chinese American women set going well-organized activities during theSecond World because(A)they were concerned about their own property(B)they wanted to take care of their family(C)they were forced by the American government(D)they were eager to devote themselves to a country(E)they have to fight against the Great Depression4.According to the passage, all of the following is mentioned to be possible jobs taken byChinese American women during the Second World War EXCEPT(A)raising money for national defense(B)tending elders in their neighborhood(C)working in military factories(D)nursing wounded soldiers(E)promoting the patriotic spirit5.It can be inferred from the passage that “armed services” is most likely to be found in(A)the neighborhood of Chinatown(B)San Francisco’s Red Cross work(C)business industries(D)the front line of Second World War(E)Chinese organized activities6.This passage is most likely found in a(n)(A)novel written in World War two(B)textbook on American history(C)letter to a beloved family member(D)autobiography of a famous person(E)editorial in a newspaper in 1940sIt hung in Napoleon’s bedroom until moving to the Louvre in 1804. It caused traffic jams in New York for seven weeks as 1.6 million people jostled to see it. In Tokyo viewers were allowed ten seconds each. The object of all this attention was the world’s most famous portrait, the Mona Lisa. Historically, its subject was nobody special, probably the wife of a Florentine merchant named Giocondo. But her portrait set the standard for High Renaissance paintings in many important ways. The use of perspective, which created the illusion of depth behind Mona Lisa’s head, and triangular composition established the importance of geometry in painting. It diverged from the stiff, profile portraits that had been the norm by displaying the subject in a relaxed, natural, three-quarter pose.One of the first easel paintings intended to be framed and hung on a wall, the Mona Lisa fully realized the potential of the new oil medium. Instead of proceeding from outlined figures, as painters did before, Leonardo modeled features through light and shadow. Starting with dark undertones, he built the illusion of three-dimensional features through layers and layers of thin, transparent glazes. This technique rendered the whole, as Leonardo said, “without lines of borders, in the manner of smoke.” His colors ranged from light to dark in a continuous gradation of subtle tones, without crisp separating edges. The forms seemed to emerge from, and melt into, shadows.7.The main purpose of this passage is toA)illustrate the characteristics and the value of a well-known masterpieceB)introduce the painting technique of an important genreC)describe the contribution of a distinguished artistD)discuss the influence of an artistic reformE)refute the norm of an aesthetic practice8.The author cites Napoleon’s bedroom to illustrate theA)ambition of NapoleonB)fame of the Mona LisaC)mystery of the Mona LisaD)long history of the Mona LisaE)political use of the Mona Lisa9.By mentioning the identity of Giocondo, the model of Mona Lisa, the author contrastGiocondo’sA)humble origins and her portrait’s monetary valueB)uncomely appearance and her portrait’s beautyC)ordinary status and her portrait’s artistic importanceD)immoral habit and her portrait’s fameE)early death and her portrait’s eternity10.According to the passage, the traditional principle on displaying subject is characterized asA)romanticB)rigidC)looseD)freeE)illusive11.The passage lists which of the following as features of the Mona Lisa?I.graze layersII.subtle changeIII.imposing backdropIV.outlined figureA)I onlyB)II onlyC)I and II onlyD)I, II, and III onlyE)I and IV only12.As it is used in line 7, the word “diverge” most nearly means(A) differ(B) display(C) symbolize(D) build(E) comeGeologists Harris and Gass hypothesized that the Red Sea rift developed along the line of a split (a splice in the Earth’s crust), and that significant observable differences in the composition of the upper layers of rocks deposited on either side of the split give clues to the different natures of the underlying igneous rocks.Other geologists argued that neither the upper rock layer nor the underlying igneous rocks on the one side of the rift differ fundamentally from the layers on the other side. These geologists believe, therefore, that there is inadequate evidence to conclude that a split underlies the rift.In response, Harris and Gass asserted that the upper rock layers on the two sides of the rift had not been shown to be of similar age, structure, or geochemical content. Furthermore, they cited new evidence that the underlying igneous rocks on either side of the rift contain significantly different kinds of rare metals.13.Which of the following has been observed according to the passage?I.the origin of the Red Sea riftII.the difference existed on underlying rocks on either sidesIII.the difference existed on upper rocks on either sidesIV.the split underlying the Red Sea riftA)I onlyB)II onlyC)III onlyD)II and III onlyE)III and IV only14.According to the passage, the most powerful evidence supporting Harris and Gass’shypothesis would beA)the fact that rifts grow along with splits have been observed elsewhereB)the fact that rifts grow on Earth’s crust have been observed elsewhereC)the fact that upper rock gives indications on underlying rock have been observed elsewhereD)the upper rock on either side of the Red Sea rift are totally unlikeE)the underlying rock on either side of the Red Sea rift are totally unlike15.Those who disagree with Harris and Gass’s hypothesis in this passage challenge theA)validity of its evidenceB)strictness of its reasoningC)sufficiency of its proofD)rightness of its motivationE)feasibility of its practice16. It can be inferred from the passage that Harris and Gass have done which of the following?(A) Drawn detailed maps of the Red Sea rift.(B) Based conclusions on how splits develop in the Earth’s crust.(C) Rejected other geologists’ objections to their hypothesis.(D) Suggested the presence of rare metals in rocks indicates a split.(E) Asserted that rifts usually occur along the lines of splits.17. According to the passage, Harris and Gass have mentioned all of the following properties of rocks along the Red Sea rift EXCEPT:(A) age of the upper layers of rock(B) age of the underlying igneous rocks(C) structure of the upper layers of rocks(D) geochemical content of the upper layers of rocks(E) metallic content of the underlying igneous rocks18.

According to such an agreement, a labor union talks for wages and working conditions for all workers in a business, and all workers are required to belong to the union. Since 1947, 20 states have adopted right-to-work laws. Much of the research concerning right-to-work laws implies that such law has not actually had a significant impact. This point of view, however, has not gone uncriticized. Thomas Carroll said that the conclusions drawn by previous researchers are limited on the assumption that, unless right-to-work laws significantly reduce union membership within a state, they have no effect. Carroll argues that the right-to-work laws “do matter” in that such laws make differences in real wages across states. Specifically, Carroll indicates that while right-to-work laws may not “destroy” unions by reducing the absolute number of unionized workers, they do stop the spread of unions and thereby reduce wages within right-to-work states. Because the counteracting power of unions is weakened in right-to-work states, manufacturers and their suppliers can act jointly in competitive labor markers, thus lowering wages in the affected industries.23. This passage is primarily to(A)refute the criticism against a law(B)validate the justice of a judgment(C)introduce the content of an agreement(D)compare the point of two group of lawyers(E)illustrate the mechanism unions influence wages24. “right-to-work” law in this passage is enacted to(A)free workers from unions(B)introduce workers to unions(C)improve working condition for workers(D)help suppliers against manufacturers(E)launch counterattack against criticizers25. Both Carroll and previous researchers in this passage agree that “right-to-work” law(A)hardly made any influence(B)effectively prohibit union shop agreement(C)importantly increase the wage of workers(D)notably weakened the competitiveness of workers(E)insignificantly affect the number of union members26. The passage suggests that in term of workers’ wages, the spread of unions is(A)useless(B)harmful(C)beneficial(D)dispensable(E)unhelpful27. According to the passage, Carroll’s attitude toward “previous researchers” is likely to be(A)condemnation(B)appreciation(C)indifference(D)opposition(E)sarcasm28. In right-to-work state, the following statement can be inferred from the passage EXCEPT(A)some workers are not belong to the labor union(B)some workers are not included in the negotiations of the labor union(C)manufacturer have bigger influence on workers’ wages than the past(D)the membership in labor unions stop to increase(E)union shop agreement is held to some degree29. What is the primary purpose of this passage?A)showing evidence to a doubtable viewpointB)giving examples of a wide-spread phenomenonC)finding the motivation of a historical actionD)challenging the validity of an early conclusionE)explaining the economic status of a group of people30.

King applied for a permit to hold apeaceful march through Birmingham, butthe city officials denied his request. Nevertheless, 10he scheduled the march. Becausethe marchers had no permit, their actionwas illegal, and the march was broken up bypolice. King and many of the marchers werearrested. While King was in jail, eight15clergy men signed a letter that was publishedin the local newspaper. The letter, while itasked the community to work to end racialproblems, opposed marches and demonstrationsas the means of working toward a20solution. Alter King read the letter, he wrotea response, replying to each point theclergymen raised. His response, published as“Letter from Birmingham Jail,” includes ananalysis of when it is proper to act in25violation of a law. He believed that if a lawis unjust or unfair, people have not only aright but also a positive moral duty tooppose it, so long as their oppositionremains peaceful and nonviolent. Because of30its balanced sentence structure, appropriatereferences to the Bible and historical fact,and its powerful wording, “Letter fromBirmingham Jail" is considered to be amasterpiece of rhetoric.351.

King believed that breaking a law is(A) always wrong.(B) always the right thing to do.(C) one's duty if one dislikes the law.(D) a proper way to oppose an unjust law.(E) always proper if the opposition is not violent.4. The clergymen who wrote the letter wanted to(A) stop the marches and demonstrations.(B) be sure King remained in jail.(C) oppose the ending of racial problems.(D) provide civil rights for African Americans.(E) help King get out of jail.5. In the last sentence of the passage, “rhetoric” (line 35) means(A) advertisement.(B) excellent writing.(C) an emotional speech.(D) poetry.(E) religious teaching.Passage 2When you buy a house plant, if the plant ishealthy, it is likely to grow successfully inyour home. How do you decide if a plant issound? First, look at the leaves. If they arebrown at the edges, the plant has been5given too much fertilizer or has been kept intemperatures that are too warm for itsspecies. If the leaves are pale or yellow, theplant has been given too much or too littlewater. If the leaves are very far apart from 10each other on the stem, this may mean theplant has been pushed to grow abnormallyfast, and new leaves will not grow to fill inthe gaps. You should look for a plant whosefoliage is dense.15After checking the leaves' generalappearance, look carefully at the undersideof the leaves and the places where theleaves join the stem for evidence of insects.Because the insects that infest house plants 20are very tiny, it may be hard to see them.But they leave clues that they are living onthe plant. Some secrete a shiny stickysubstance called honeydew on the plant.Others leave behind tiny fine white webs.25Finally, check to see if the plant s roots are growing out through the drainage holein the bottom of the pot. If the roots aregrowing through the hole, the plant hasoutgrown its pot, and it may not be the30healthiest plant, even if you repot it in alarger container.6. If a plant has been given too much fertilizer,(A)its leaves may have brown edges.(B)its leaves may be yellow.(C)there will be tiny webs on the leaves.(D)the foliage will be dense.(E)the soil will appear dry.7.

Too much or too little water will cause(A)dark-colored foliage.(B)large gaps between the leaves.(C)yellow or pale leaves.(D)roots to grow out of the drainage hole.(E)shiny spots on the stem.10. Based on this passage, a reader can infer that(A)all growers of plants for sale raise them in perfect conditions.(B)some plants for sale have not been cared for properly.(C)plants are forced to grow abnormally fast.(D)it is difficult to care for a plant at home.(E) a plant’s health is based on its environment.Passage 3Some myths are stories told by earlycivilizations to explain the origins of naturalphenomena. The Greek myth that explainsthe origin of the seasons is about Demeter,the goddess of the harvest. She had a5daughter, Persephone, whom she loved verymuch. Hades, god of the underworld, fell inlove with Persephone, and he asked Zeus,the ruler of the gods, to give Persephone tohim as his wife. Zeus did not want to offend 10either Hades or Persephone, so he said hewould not agree to the marriage, but neitherwould he forbid it. Hades, therefore, decidedto take the girl without permission. As shewas picking flowers in a meadow, he seized15her and took her to the underworld. WhenDemeter found out what happened toPersephone, she became so angry that shecaused all plants to stop growing. Peoplewere in danger of starving. But Demeter20swore that no food would grow untilPersephone was returned to her. Zeus, stillnot wanting to offend Hades, set a conditionfor Persephone's return. She could go backto her mother if she had not eaten anything 25while she was in the underworld. Demeterdid not know it, but Persephone had eatenseveral pomegranate seeds in the underworld.When Zeus discovered this, hepermitted a compromise. Persephone could 30spend part of the year with her mother, butbecause she had eaten the seeds, she mustspend part of the year in the underworld.And when Persephone is in the underworld,Demeter is sad, and therefore will not let the 35crops grow. That is why we have winter,when plants do not grow. When Persephonereturns. Demeter is happy, it is spring, andplants begin to grow again.11.

Demeter stopped the growth of crops when(A)Zeus did not forbid the marriage.(B)Hades took Persephone to the underworld.(C)she discovered what Hades had done.(D)Persephone ate some pomegranate seeds.(E)Persephone was returned to her.Passage 4The Big Bang theory, an explanation of theorigins of our universe, is one of the greatestintellectual achievements of the twentiethcentury. According to this theory, about tento twenty million years ago, the matter of5which the universe is made was infinitelytightly compressed. Something—called theBig Bang—turned this matter into a giganticfireball. As the matter was set into motionand flew away from its compressed state,10bits of it became glued together to creategalaxies and, later, stars and planets. Themotion of the matter that flew out of thefireball continues today, and the universeappears to be expanding. The theory grew 15out of observations of the Doppler effect. Itexplains that the frequency of radiationgiven off by a moving body decreases as thesources get farther from the observer. In1965, scientists discovered that the radiation 20bathing the earth is at the precise micro-wave frequency that would be expected ifthe universe began with a big bang. Somescientists think the expansion of theuniverse will continue to infinity, while25others theorize that gravity will, at somepoint in the far distant future, collapse backonto itself in a “big crunch, returning it to astate of compressed matter.16. The best title for this passage is(A)“The Big Bang.”(B)“The Big Crunch.”(C)“Our Expanding Universe.”(D)“The Doppler Effect.”(E)“Scientific Discoveries.”17. As a moving object gets farther from its source, its radiation frequency(A)stays the same.(B)grows larger.(C)grows smaller.(D)expands.(E)collapses.18.

The author of this passage thinks the Big Bang theory(A)has not been proven.(B)does not explain the creation of the universe.(C)is a very important contribution to knowledge.(D)explains what happens when a moving body gets farther from its source.(E)shows the frequency of radiation bathing the earth.Passage 5Although the First World War had beenfought as the “war to make the world safefor democracy,” and the “war to end allwars,” the world's problems were not solvedwhen fighting was stopped by the cease-fire5agreement signed on November 11, 1918.The world was not yet at peace. In Russia,there was a civil war among various factionswishing to replace the monarchy, which hadbeen lead by the Czar. Greece was fighting10Turkey over territory that had belonged tothe former Turkish Empire. In the MiddleEast, the Jews were asking for the establishmentof a national homeland, and the Arabsin the area were opposing them. In India, at15that time a colony of the British Empire,educated Indians thought their contributionsto the war meant their nation was ready formore self-rule and some independence fromGreat Britain. And throughout the world,20populations had been reduced by the 1918influenza epidemic, which, most publichealth experts believe, killed more peoplethan were killed in the war s battles. Whenthe Paris Peace Conference began in January251919, the defeated nations were not invited.They would simply be notified of the termsof die peace treaty and asked to sign it. Inthe United States, Americans' disgust aboutthe huge human costs of the war lead to30isolationism, the desire to avoid internationalpolitical situations and focus only onproblems within the country. Thus, it is notsurprising that the League of Nations,formed while the Peace Conference was in35session as an international organization tocreate a better world, did not succeed in itsgoals of achieving world disarmament andpreventing nations from invading oneanother.4021. As used in the passage, the word “factions” (line 8) means(A)fractions.(B)international terrorists.(C)nationalists.(D)disagreeing groups.(E)followers of the king.22.

The conflict between Greece and Turkey and the conflict between Jews andArabs were similar because both(A)were about control over land.(B)involved a new homeland.(C)arose from the terms of the peace treaty.(D)led to revolutions.(E)were settled by the League of Nations.24. Wishing to withdraw from international politics is called(A)organization.(B)monarchy.(C)factionalism.(D)isolationism.(E)home rule.25. The fighting of World War I ended(A)after the world was made safe for democracy.(B)in January 1919.(C)in November 1918.(D)when the League of Nations was founded.(E)by the terms of the peace treaty.Passage 6I was flying from Los Angeles to Tucson,Arizona, to celebrate New Year’s weekendwith some friends. Because of the holidayand winter weather delays, the airport wascrowded, and many flights were canceled or 5late. Boarding for my flight began at1:15 P M.,the time originally scheduled fordeparture. The airline personnel appeared tobe in a hurry. As passengers boarded, thepilot announced on the public address10system, “O.K., folks, we’re cleared fordeparture at 1:35. If you’ll all take yourseats, well take off at that time.” Cabinattendants guided people to their seats andhelped them stow baggage. “Are we all15okay?” a cabin attendant asked.Across the aisle from where I sat, awoman said, “Where are my son andgrandson? They’re supposed on be on theplane with me. They came to the airport20with me.” She was an older woman withwell-cut white hair. Her face, although lined,was carefully but not overly made up. Shewore a stylish suit and small earrings. Theattendant leaned over and spoke to her, and 25then made an announcement. “PassengersStuart and John Miller, please let me knowwhere you are seated.” There was no rep ly.She repeated her announcement. Again, noone responded. She told Mrs. Miller that her 30son was not on the plane. “But they camewith me,” Mrs. Miller said. "They're sup posedto be here."The attendant went to the cockpit to consult the flight officers. Returning to Mrs.35Miller, she said, “Ma’am,I'm sorry. We needto have you deplane. I’m sure the airportpersonnel will be able to help you find yourson. ” Then she guided Mrs. Miller to theexit.40The doors closed; the engines fired; the plane began to taxi. A passenger seated nextto me said, “Oh, dear! That woman waswrong. Her son left her with airlinepersonnel and told them to be sure to escort 45her onto the plane.” My heart sank. Mrs.Miller probably suffered from confusion thatsometimes affects older people. Someone,no doubt, would be waiting to meet her inTucson. (Clearly, that person would be50worried. And what of Mrs. Miller? Her sonand grandson had probably left the airportby now. Would she remember their telephonenumber? And if she did, was it likelythey had already arrived home? Who would 55care for Mrs. Miller in a crowded, busyairport where passengers were trying tolocate flights to replace canceled ones, andairline personnel were concerned aboutsticking to a schedule? I thought I might60weep.。
