一、Cloze （本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）The second year in Cornell for me was very demanding. This was not because of the study. The pressure mainly came from 36 .In such top-ranking business schools as Cornell, permanent job recruiting starts as soon as the second year starts. There is a special office, the Career Service Office (CSO), which is in charge of posting on-campus interview 37 , collecting students’ resumes and coordinating the company and students in regard to the interview. Usually, during the summer time, companies start to book with the CSO when to make presentations on campus, when to collect resumes and when to 38 interviews. By mid-September, the CSO will start the first round of resume drop. Throughout the whole semester, there are about 12 or more rounds of resume drop and each round is composed of about 20 companies. 39 the past two years, the job market has been unprecedentedly good, and lots of companies have come to campus to recruit.However, for international students, the opportunities are very limited. Almost two-thirds of the American companies will state at the end of their job descriptions that they are not recruiting students without US work 40 . In the States, international students are on F-1 visa status. Once they are employed by the companies upon graduation, they need to change to H-1 status, to get the work authorization, which has to be 41 by their employers. The legal process is troublesome and time-consuming. Therefore, to avoid the troubles, many companies do not want to recruit international students without work authorization, which means that the international students can apply only 42 they have a green card. Given the fact that only about one-third of the companies coming to campus to recruit are willing to employ international students and sponsor them to get the necessary work authorization, it is not difficult to imagine how fierce the competitions are among international students on campus. Fortunately, beyond the confines of the campus, there are still more companies 43 there which have a great need for MBA students and are willing to sponsor the international students having no green cards to get the H-1 work visa. With these companies, what you need to do is to network. I cannot stress enough how important networking is in job-hunting. But networking here is quite different from what we understand by “ 44 ” in Chinese cultur e. You do not have to send any presents to the person with whom you want to establish a network, and neither do you have to know him beforehand. Our school has a great network of alums working in different fields and those alums’ 45 information is provided by the CSO. 1.A.job-searchingB.job-lookingC.job-huntingD.job-discovering 2.A.calendarsB.schedulesC.ordersD.arrangements 3.A.conductB.conduceC.constructD.control4.A.AroundB.BeyondC.AboveD.Over 5.A.authorizationB.authorityC.authorizeD.authoratative 6.A.ensuredB.sponsoredC.assuredD.guarded7.

But many travelers never meet a truck driver. Most people know little about the trucker’s way of life.This way of life has certain disadvantages. The three-day periods away from home put a strain on family life. Wives complain that their husbands are not at home to deal with their children’s problems. In turn, drivers worry about their families while they are away.Another problem is that truckers’ families can seldom plan ahead. It is hard to plan a party for a certain date or even to accept invitations. Friends often say to each other, “Come over next Saturday if your husband is back by then.”In addition, of course, there is always the danger of accidents. Although the accident rate per mile is only about half the rate for passenger cars, a life spent on major highways can never be really safe. All truck drivers fear being forced to make a sudden turn or having to stop unexpectedly on an icy road. When such accidents happen, someone other than a truck driver is usually at fault. Truckers have a low opinion of the driving skills of the general public. When truck drivers meet, much of their conversation deals with careless driving habits —the habits of others on the road. But truck drivers and their wives also point to advantages in their way of life. The chief advantage is money. “How else could an uneducated man earn as much?” one trucker’s wife asked, sitting in the comfortable living room of their new home with its large color television set and expensive furniture. The average salary earned by truck drivers may be $25,000—$30,000 with some drivers earning as much as $40,000 each year.Driving a truck requires little physical labor. At each end of the journey other workers load and unload the truck. For days at a time the driver’s life consists entirely of sitting, eating, and sleeping. It is not surprising that man y truckers worry about gaining weight.Some of the sleeping is done inside the truck. It is quite common for two men to ride together in a huge truck, one man driving while the other sleeps on a comfortable bed behind the driver. That part of the truck is usually air conditioned, and often it is furnished with all the comforts of home.When a trucker does not sleep in the truck, he spends the night at a truck stop. Some truck stops have enough parking space for as many as 400 trucks. At the truck stop there are stores that sell clothing, gifts, books, magazines, and many other kinds of goods. There are also comfortable rooms for sleeping, showers, and machines which wash the trucks.习中心______________________ 姓名______________________ 学校____________________ 专业名称______________________………………………………………密………………………………………封……………………………线………………………………………After a shower the driver can enjoy a good meal in the dining room, listening to music. Much of the music is “country” music or “western” music, as most truckers grew up on farms in the southern and western states. There are even special truckers’ songs, like “I’m a Truck”, in which a truck complains about its unsympathetic driver. In another song, “A Truck Driver’s Prayer”, the driver prays for a chance “to pass a Greyhound bus” before he dies.To the average citizen, who works in the same place from 9:00 to 5:00 each day and then goes home to his family, the truckers live in a different world. It is a world seldom seen by others.11. Huge trucks are a familiar sight to anyone who travels across the United States__________.A. by trainB.by carC.by airD.by bus12. Which of the following statements is not a disadvantage of being a truck driver?A. The three-day periods away from home put a strain on family life.B. Wives complain that their husbands are not at home to deal with their children’s problems.C. Children miss their fathers while they are not at home.D. Drivers worry about their families while they are away.13. The following are the advantages of being a truck driver EXCEPT ____________.A. a truck driver can earn $25,000—$30,000 each yearB. driving a truck requires little physical laborC. the truck drivers’ families can seldom plan aheadD. the truck drivers can enjoy themselves while they are away from home14.Many truckers worry about gaining weight, because ___________.A.at each end of the journey the truckers load and unload the truckB.for days at a time the driver’s life is boringC.driving a truck requires little physical laborD.the truckers have to work with other workers15.The truck stops have ___________.A.enough parking space for trucksB.stores that sell many kinds of thingsfortable rooms for sleeping, showers, and machines that wash the trucksD.all of the above三、Reading Comprehension1（本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分）We usually think of sportsmanship as having something to do with games and sports. Sportsmanship shows up very plainly in games such as basketball, baseball, and football. People are quick to notice good sportsmanship also in ski racing, boxing, running and jumping events, and all other forms of sports contests.If a person is a good sport, his teammates, his competitors, and the spectators at the sporting event notice it at once. Even if he loses the game, he is approved of if he is a good sport. Even if he wins the game, he is disapproved of if he is a poor sport.Sportsmanship is just as important in everything we do in life as it is in games and sports. Our friends, our families, and our fellow workers approve of us if we are good sports, and disapprove if we are poor sports.Some rules for good sportsmanship are given below. If your follow all of these rules, then you are, no doubt, a good sport.Show consideration for others. Helen took turns with her older sister and mother in washing the dinner dishes. However, she always left the pots and pans for either her sister or mother to do. “I don’t like to wash pots and pans,” she’d say. Probably her sister and mother didn’t enjoy washing pots and pans either. Helen was being a poor sport---she was thinking only of herself and not showing consideration for others.When you have an unpleasant job to do, remember it is also unpleasant for others. Don’t pity yourself or try to get someone else to do it for you. Go ahead with your difficult, dull tasks, and help others when they are doing an unpleasant task. Also, follow the golden rule of doing for others as you would have them do for you, and then you can be sure that you are showing consideration.Follow the rule of the game. In playing a game, there are certain rules which all must follow in order that the game be played fairly. If one doesn’t follow these rules, he is not allowed to continue playing.There are rules for doing many things in life in addition to playing games. There are rules for doing your school work, crossing the street, participating in fire drills, driving a car, picking wild flowers in certain places, putting out campfires, and many other things. These rules are made not only for your own good, but also for the good of others. It is just as important that you follow these rules in daily activities as it is for the football player to follow the rules in a football game.Work with the team. Ted gave up an opportunity to win the silver cup for himself because he didn’t want to take the chance of having his team lose the game. He was more interested in the happiness of all Kenmore students than in his personal happiness in winning the cup.Even though you are not always playing a game, you are nearly always working or playing with a kind of team. Your class in school is a team. A committee which is asked to do a certain thing in the classroom is a team. The group of friends with whom you spend much time outside of school is a team. Your family is a team.It is just as important for you to help each of these teams to accomplish whatever it sets out to do as it was for Ted to do what he did to help his basketball team win the game. Usually, each group has a certain goal or goals it is attempting to achieve. It is your job to support the “team” in every way you can to help it reach its goals.The only exception is when the team has an unworthy goal. “Come on, let’s go back and cover old lady Gray’s windows with soap. She didn’t give us a good enough treat,” sa id Tom to the five friends with whom he was having Halloween fun. As the group started off, Fred said, “I’m not going.” “Come on, be a sport,” cried Jim.“I don’t think making a lot of work and expense for an old lady is being a sport,” replied Fred.When the group wants to do something that isn’t right, then the really good sport is the one who can stand on his own. In such a case, the good sport does not go along with the group because they dare him, call him “chicken,” or tell him that he should be a good sport and join them.Be a good loser. One of the important rules of good sportsmanship is to take disappointment, defeat, or bad luck with a smile. Then start trying harder than ever to do what it is that you want to do successfully next time.A good loser never complains, makes excuses, sulks, or hits back with words when he fails at something. Doing any of these things can bring no good to anyone. They may be harmful to the loser in the future. The thing to do is to clear your mind of the old disappointment and give all of your thought and energy to new goals ahead.16. Sportsmanship will be shown in __________.A. games such as basketball, baseball, and footballB. ski racing, boxing, running and jumping eventsC. only jumping eventsD. all forms of sports contests17. If a person is a good sport, then__________.A. his teammates, his competitors and the spectators at the sporting event notice it at onceB. he is approved of, even if he loses the gameC. his families, and his fellow workers approved of himD. all of the above18. Which rule is not mentioned in the text for good sportsmanship?A. Show consideration for others.B. Follow the rules of the game.C. Try to get someone else to do what you don’t like to do.D. Work with the team.19. According to the passage, which statement is not supported by the author?A. Sportsmanship is just as important in everything we do in life as it is in games and sports.B. When you’ve an unpleasant job to do, it may be pleasant for others.C. There are certain rules which all must follow in order that the game be played fairly.D. It is just as important for you to help each of these teams to accomplish whatever it sets out to do.20. In paragraph 14, “chicken” means __________.A. one who can stand on his ownB. one who doesn’t want to go along with his groupC. a cowardD. a good sportsman四、完形填空（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分）Adults are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised in the meantime.A man who has not had an opportunity to go swimming for years can___21___swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water.

Because of the many changes in computer technology,laptop use in higher education,such as colleges and universities,is workable.As laptops become more powerful,they becomemore similar to desktop computers.In addition,the portable computers can connect students to not only the Internet,but also libraries and other resources.State higher-education officials are studying how laptops can help students.State officials are also testing laptop programs at other universities,too.At Westlake College,more than60percent of the staff use computers.The laptops will allow all teachers to use computers in their lessons.As one Westlake teacher said,“Here we are in the middle of Virginia and we’re giving students a window on the world. They can see everything and do everything.”57.The main purpose of the laptop program is to give each student a laptop to ________.e for their schoolworkB.access the InternetC.work at homeD.connect them to libraries58.Why is the word“speak”in the second paragraph in quotation marks(引号)?A.They don’t really talk.B.They use the computer language.ptops have speakers.D.None of the above reasons is correct.59.Which of the following is true about Westlake College?A.All teachers use computers.B.1500students have laptops.C.It is an old college in America.D.Students there can do everything.60.A window on the world in the last paragraph means that students can________.A.attend lectures on information technologyB.travel around the worldC.get information from around the worldD.have free laptops61.What can we infer from the passage?A.The program is successful.B.The program is not workable.C.The program is too expensive.D.We don’t know the result yet.There is an English saying:“Laughter is the best medicine.”Until recently,few people took the saying seriously.Now,however,doctors have begun to look into(调查)laughter and the effects it has on the human body.They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body.People watched funny films while doctors checked their heart,blood pressure,breathing and muscles.It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise.It increases blood pressure,the heart beating and breathing;it also works several groups of muscles in the face,the stomach, and even the feet.If laughter exercises the body,it must be beneficial(有益的).Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body.In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programmes.The group that tolerated(忍受)the pain for the longest time was the groups which listened to a funny programme.The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress(紧张；压力)and pain.As a result of these discoveries,some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics,in which they help to improve their patients’condition by encouraging them to laugh.They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing,making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.62.The underlined phrase“took the saying seriously”in the1st paragraph probably means “________”.A.treat as important B.treat as interestingC.treat as dangerousD.treat as funny63.Doctors have proved the following except that_______.A.smiling does good to healthughter can be toleratedC.there is a way to reduce painughter can work the muscles in the feet64.The main idea of the passage is_______.ughter and physical exercises have similar effects on the human bodyB.smile can produce the same effects as laughterC.pain can be reduced by laughterughter is the best medicine65. The underlined word“diminish”is similar to“______”.A.testB.stopC.reduceD.increase66.Doctors hold laughter clinics_______.A.to give better condition to their patientsB.in order to improve patients’healthC.to make patients smileD.to prove smile and laughter have the same effect七、Vocabulary and Structure（本大题共21小题，每小题1分，共21分）在每小题列出的备选项中只有一个符合题目要求的，请将其选出并将“答题卡”的相应代码涂黑，错涂、多涂或未涂均无分67.Whether right or wrong, he has ideas about how the lessons should ___________.A.have conductedB.be conductedC.conductD.been conducting68.Words cannot ___________ the beauty of the scene.A.sayB.talkC.speakD.describe69.This unusual sabbatical leave was conducted ___________ great secrecy.A.byB.inC.atD.On70.A miner works underground, digging out ________ such as coal, copper, and diamonds.A.minesB.minersC.minorsD.minerals71.I have had this ____________ headache ever since I woke up this morning.A.consistentB.consistC.consciousD.consequent72.Let me ___________to my next main point.A.get onB.hold onC.turn onD.move on73.When he awoke, he found himself ___________ by an old woman.A.looked afterB.be looked afterC.being looked afterD.to be looked after74.The trouble was that many of his friends were also __________ observers of life.A.deanB.meanC.keenD.teen75.In their secondary schooling children got more advanced knowledge and begin to _________ on their special interests.A.takeB.goC.concentrateD.keep76.He ___________ her elbows on her knees and cupped her chin in her hands.A.learnedB.loanedC.leanedD.lined77.There was _________ amount of memory work.A.considerateB.consideringC.considerableD.consideration78.Students are entitled __________ free medical care under the National Health Service.A.byB.ofC.onD.to79.The curtain ___________ and the show began.A.dividedB.partedC.splitD.departed80.I am going to Paris __________ my brother is coming as well.A.bothB.orC.eitherD.and81.
