Ⅳ．Reading Comprehension (30 points)
Directions：There are two reading passages in this part．Each passage is followed by five questions. For each
question there are four suggested answers marked A，B, C and D．Choose one best answer.
Passage One
Almost everyone knows the meaning of Mr, Mrs and Miss．Mr is used before the names of men．Mrs is for married women and Miss is for single women．But what is Ms?
For some time，businessmen in the United States have used Ms before a woman's
name when they do not know whether the woman is married or not．Today，however，
many women prefer to use Ms rather than Mrs or Miss．The word Mr does not tell us
whether or not a man is married. Many women think this is an advantage for
men．They want to be equal with men in this way. These women feel that it is not
important for people to know whether they are married or not．
There are some problems with Ms，however．Not all women like it. Some like the
older ways of doing things．Some find it difficult to pronounce．(Ms sounds like
"miz".) Generally，young women like it better than older women do．It is difficult
to know whether or not Ms will be used by more American women in the future．What
do you think of this change?
31.The word Ms can be used before the name of ______.
A． a married woman B．an unmarried woman
C． a woman D．any person
32．Ms was most likely used first ______.
A．by business people B．among young women
C．among workers D．in schools
33．Many young women prefer to use Ms because ______.
A. the word has been used for a long time
B. they think themselves as good as men
C. the word sounds more pleasant than Mrs does
D. it does not tell whether they are married or not
34．From the passage we can learn that the word Ms appeared ______.
A．before Mr, Mrs and Miss
B．before Mrs and Miss，but after Mr
C．after Mr，Mrs and Miss
D．after Mrs and Miss，but before Mr
35． Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage? _____.
A．More and more American women will accept the use of Ms in the future
B. Ms can be used for both married and unmarried women
C. Ms is the short form of Mrs
D．Men like to use Ms better than women do
Passage Two
Life on earth depends on the sun．Day after day we see its light and feel its
warmth，but we do not often consider their origin．Yet there are many remarkable
things about the sun．One is its distance from the earth, even if it could be
made，it would take several hundred years even in the fastest rocket．
The sun is a large star．The planet earth is very small in comparison. One
hundred and nine globes the size of the earth would be needed to stretch from one
side of the sun to the other side．The sun makes us feel hot even at a distance of
ninety-three million miles. This is not surprising. The temperature on the sun is
about ten thousand degrees Fahrenheit．But we receive only a small part of this
heat．The total heat of the sun could melt a column of ice two and quarter miles
thick and ninety-three million miles high in one second．
The brightness of the sun is equally astonishing. The sun gives such a bright
light that 1, 575, 000, 000, 000, 00O, 000 wax candles would be needed to give an equal light．This very long row of figures gives us some ideas of the brilliance of the sun. As we said earlier, we receive only a very small part of its light．This is sufficient for the growth of trees and plants，and for the existence of living creatures on earth．Too mach heat and light would destroy the balance of life．The heat and light from the sun come in just the right quantities for life on earth．
36．The sun is ______.
A. the largest globe B．the largest star
C．a large heavenly body D．a large planet
37．The diameter of the sun is _____.
A．two hundred and eighteen times as big as that of the earth
B．ninety-five million miles
C．one hundred and nine times as large as that of the earth D．ninety—three million times as large as that of the earth 38．Which of the following statements is TRUE? _______.
A．Man can get to the sun by the rocket
B．The heat we receive from the sun can melt a column of ice in one second
C．Nothing can describe the brightness of the sun
D．The distance from the sun to earth is 93 million miles
39. The balance of life on earth would be destroyed if _________.
A. the temperature on the sun should be ten thousand degrees centigrade
B. the earth receives a small part of the sun’s heat
C. we should receive only a very small part of the sun’s light
D．the light and heat from the sun should come in just the right quantities for us on earth
40．The main idea of this passage would probably be _________.
A. life on earth depends on the sun
B．too much heat and light from the sun would destroy the balance of life
C．compared with the sun，the planet earth is very small
D.the sun's heat and light come in just the right quantities for life on earth
