My friend was w aiting for me when my plane landed at Kennedy Airport at three o’clock in the afternoon. The weather was very cold and it was snowing, but I was too excited to mind. From the airport, my friend and I took a taxi to my hotel. On the way, I saw the skyline of Manhattan for the first time and I stared in astonishment at the famous skyscrapers and their man-made beauty. My friend helped me unpack at the hotel and them left me because he had to go back to work. He promised to return the next day.Shortly after my friend had left, I went to a restaurant near the hotel to get something to eat. Because I couldn’t speak a word of English, I couldn’t tell the waiter what I wanted. I was very upset and started to make some gestures, but the waiter didn’t understand me. Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the next table was eating. After dinner, I started to walk along Broadway until I came to Times Square with its movie theatres, neon lights, and huge crowds of people. I did not feel tired, so I continued to walk around the city. I wanted to see everything on my first day. I knew it was impossible, but I wanted to try.When I returned to the hotel, I was exhausted, but I couldn’t sleep because I kept hearing the fire and police sirens during the night. I lay awake and thought about New York. It was a very big and interesting city with many tall buildings and big cars, and full of noise and busy people. I also decided right then that I had to learn to speak English.6.

He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could not afford 31 any more chocolate.It all began a year ago when Albert returned home one evening and found a large dog 32 front of the gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate 33 his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. It held up its 34 and perceived another piece of chocolate as a reward. Albert called his new friend “Bingo”. He never 35 the dog’s real name, nor who his owner was. However, Bingo appeared 36 every afternoon and it was quite clear that he preferred chocolate to bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with 37 pieces of chocolate and demanded a large bar a day. If at any time Albert neglected his duty, Bingo got very 38 and refused to let him open the gate. Albert was nowat Bingo’s mercy and had to bribe him to get out 39 his own house! He spent such a large part of his weekly wages to keep Bingo supplied with chocolate 40 in the end he had to move somewhere else.31. A. buying B. to buy C. to buying D. to have bought32.

Either way, the lady will have to stand 43 someone else gets off.You can’t entirely blame men for this change in manners, 44 . The days are gone when women could be referred to as the weaker sex without causing 45 . A whole generation of women has grown up demanding 46 with men; not just equality in jobs or education, 47 in social attitudes.

Each passage is provided with some questions followed by 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. Decide on the one that best answers those questions.Passage 1“Learning a language is easy. Even a child can do it!”Most adults who are learning a second or a foreign language would disagree with this statement. For them, learning a language is a very difficult task. They need hundreds of hours of study and practice, and even this will not guarantee success for every adult language learner.Language learning is different from other kinds of learning. Some people who are very intelligent and successful in their fields find it difficult to succeed in language learning. Conversely, some people who are successful language learners find it difficult to succeed in other fields.Language teachers often offer advice to language learners: “Read as much as you can in the new language.” “Practice speaking the language every day.” “Live with people who speak the language.” “Don’t translate—try t o think in the new language.” “Learn as a child would learn; play with the language.”But what does a successful language learner do? Language learning research shows that successful language learners are similar in many ways.First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes.Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate. They are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things; they are willing to make mistakes and try again. When communications are difficult, they can accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.What kind of language learner are you? If you are a successful language learner, you have probably been learning independently, actively, and purposefully. On the other hand, if your language learning has been less than successful, you might do well to try some of the techniques outlined above.51. A successful language learner must ___________.A.be very intelligentB.depend on a good book or teacherC.try always to speak correctlyD.try to learn the new language independently, actively, and purposefully52. Which of the following would most probably NOT be a piece of advice offered by a language teacher?A. Never guess the meaning of a word.B. Don’t translate—try to think in the new language.C. Find every chance to speak the language.E.Read as much as possible in the new language.53. The expression “ play with the language” in para.4 me ans to _________.A.learn the language to play with a childB.learn the language from a childC.learn the language in a more natural waye the language as a toy54. According to para.7, thinking in the language is more important than knowing the meaning of every word of the language, because .A.knowing the meaning of every word is useless.B.thinking in the language is easier than knowing the meaning of every word.C.knowing the meaning of every word requires more time.D.when thinking in the language, you are using the language in an active way.55. The word “techniques” in the last line of the text cannot be replaced by _________.A.methodsB. skillsC. toolsD. reasonsPassage 2The family is important to people all over the world although the structure of the family is quite different from one country to another. In the United States, as in many other countries in the world, the family is changing. A generation or two ago, the traditional family, in which the father was boss, was customary. Now, the modern family, in which both the father and the mother are equal partners, is more common. Although there are several similarities between the traditional family and the modern family, there also exist some very important differences.The traditional family of yesterday and the modern family of today have several similarities. The traditional family was a nuclear family, and the modern family is, too. The role of the father in the traditional family was to provide for his family. Similarly, the father in the modern family is expected to do so, also. The mother in the traditional family took care of the children’s physical and emotional needs just as the modern mother does.On the other hand, there are some great differences between the traditional family and the modern family. The first important difference is in the man’s role. The traditional husband was the head of household, because he was the only one who worked outside the home. If the wife worked for pay, then the husband was not considered to be a good provider. In many families today, both husband and wife work for pay. Therefore, they share the role of head of household. In addition, the traditional husband usually made the big decisions about spending money. However, the modern husband shares these decisions with his working wife. Also, the traditional husband did not help his wife with the housework or meal preparation. Dinner was ready when he came home. In contrast, the modern husband helps his working wife at home. He may do some of the household jobs, and it is not unusual for him to cook.The second difference is in the woman’s role. In the traditional family, the woman may have worked for pay during her first years of marriage. However, after she became pregnant, she would usually give up her job. Her primary role was to take care of her family and home. In contrast, in many families today, the modern woman works outside the home even after she has children. She’s doing two jobs instead of one, so she is busier than the traditional mother was. The traditional wifelearned to live within her husband’s income. On the other hand, the modern wife does not have to because the family has two incomes.The final difference is in the role of the children. In the traditional family, the children were taken care of by the mother because she did not work outside the home. However, today preschool children may go to a child care center or to a baby-sitter regularly because the mother works. The school-age children of a traditional family were more dependent. Their mother was there to help them to get ready for school and to make their breakfast. In contrast, modern children are more independent. They have to get up early in the morning and get ready for school. Their mother is busy getting ready for work, so they may even have to make their own breakfast.In conclusion, the American family of today is different from the family of fifty years ago. In the modern family, the roles of the father, mother, and children have changed as more and more women work outside the home. The next century may bring more important changes to the American family structure. It should be interesting to see.56.

Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).Passage 1Though marriage is practiced in almost all countries of the world, the customs are quitedifferent from one culture to another. It is interesting for me to compare the customs of marriage in the United States with those in my country.I’ve lived in the U.S. for four years now, but I’m still not comfortable with the customs here. In fact, what seems strange to me is that courting or dating is not always for the purpose of finding a husband or wife. Some people seem to do it as a hobby.Here in the United States, I have noticed that courting is begun by the young couple themselves, and they seem to have a lot of freedom to decide and do what they want. Both young men and women date a number of different people. They do it without the knowledge or help of their parents. In fact, I have known several friends who got married without even telling their parents or other family members.At the actual wedding ceremony, the father of the bride symbolically gives his daughter to the groom. It’s only a custom, I think, because the bride and groom already know each other quite well. The bride and groom stand together in front of the religious leader or government official to be married. The official reads from a short prepared speech and then asks both the man and woman if they are willing to be married to the other. If they both say “yes,” and nobody attending the wedding stands up to object, they are declared “man and wife”. It is interesting that the two families are asked if there are any objections right during the ceremony. Perhaps it is because the family members are not as involved in the wedding preparations as they are in Iran.Marriage is different in a number of ways in my country. In Iran, courting is more serious, and is performed strictly for the purpose of marriage. It is definitely not a part of the fun-filled years of growing up like it is here in America. It is the mother of the young man who initiates the process by visiting the home of a potential bride. She goes to inspect the girl, and discover the position and wealth of the girl’s family. If she is pleased, then she will return another day with her son. If her son is also pleased, then the two families get together to talk about the dowry, the wedding ceremony, who they will hire to perform the marriage, and other matters.The actual marriage ceremony is quite different, however, from the American wedding ceremonies I have seen. The bride, dressed in white, with a veil over her face, sits in a room alone. She sits on a special piece of silk which is surrounded on two sides by very long pieces of flat bread. Two mullahs stand outside the door to this room reading from the Koran. Twice the bride must remain silent to the questions of the mullahs. The groom’s mother then presents a gift of gold to show that her side of the family is serious. The bride then responds to the mullahs in much the same manner as do Americans when they say “I do.” The groom is allowed to go into the bride’s room while the mullahs take care of the official marriage papers.One more difference between the marriage customs of the United States and my country is that the bride does not immediately go to the home of her new husband. For several months, she continues to stay at her own home preparing her dowry and receiving instructions from her mother on how to be a good wife and mother. After a few months, the groom and his relatives come for the bride and take her to his home along with the dowry.Though I can certainly see the advantages of the freedom that is given to American youths to choose whom they will marry and when, I think I still prefer the customs of my home country. I suppose that’s because there is not so much guessing and uncertainty.61. Marriage as a social form of male and female relationship exists in all countries of the world,but customs of marriage vary from culture to culture.62. As a custom in the U.S., it is the parents who decide when their daughter can have a boyfriendand who he should be.63. Before the wedding ceremony takes place, the American couple already know each other quite well.64. In Iran, courting is a very serious matter. It is done only for the purpose of finding a husband orwife.65. In Iran, as soon as the wedding ceremony is complete, the bride will go to her husband’s home.Passage 2Every four years, there is the presidential election. In the United States, there are two major political parties, Democratic and Republican. The summer before the election, each of the major political parties holds a presidential-nominating convention. It is a large meeting within a political party made up of party delegates chosen from the states, the District of Columbia and the territories. The convention meets every presidential-election year and picks the party’s presidential and vice-presidential nominees. Once the presidential candidate is selected, his running-mate, the vice-presidential candidate, must be chosen.At the convention, a party platform is adopted. It is a very general statement on the party’s goals and position on national and international issues. A majority of the convention delegates must vote for the various planks of the platform in order for them to be accepted.Actual campaigning for the election traditionally begins on the first Monday in September. From that time until election day, voters are bombarded from all sides by radio, television, newspapers, and personal communications with political content.On the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, voters cast their ballots for President and Vice-President. Some members of Congress and many state and local officials are also selected at this time.The President and Vice-President are not actually chosen by popular votes but by electoral votes. That is, the people vote for electors, who are, as a group, known as the Electoral College. This group selects the President and Vice-President. When a voter casts his vote for a presidential candidate, he is really choosing electors. Each elector is expected to vote for the candidate who wins the majority of popular votes in his state. The number of electors allotted to each state is equal to the total number of representatives and senators who represent that state in Congress. Thus, states with large populations have more electoral votes. The candidate who receives a majority of the votes in a particular state receives all of that state’s electoral votes.To be elected, candidates for President and Vice-President must receive a majority of the votes in the Electoral College. If no candidate receives a majority, the House of Representatives chooses the President from the top three candidates and the Senate chooses the Vice-president from the top two candidates having the highest number of electoral votes.As soon as the votes in the November elections are counted in all the states, or in most of them, it becomes known who is going to be the U. S. President in the next four years. There is no need to wait for the voting by the electors. However, as a matter of formality, the electors usually meet in their state capital in early January of the following year to “elect” a President and a Vic e-President.The newly elected President is inaugurated in January during a nationally-televised ceremony. He then moves into the White House and appoints members of his Cabinet.66. In the United States, there are two minor political parties, Democratic and Republican.67. Once the presidential candidate is selected, his running-mate, the vice-presidential candidate, must be chosen.68. On the first Tuesday after the last Monday in November, voters cast their ballots for President and Vice-President.69. The number of electors allotted to each state is the same as the total number of representatives and senators who represent that state in Congress.70. The newly elected President is inaugurated on January 1 during a nationally-televised ceremony.IV.

Roald dahlRoald Dahl - the author who entertained people with classics like Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach--would have been 100 years old this year. Roald Dahl is most famous for the books he wrote for children, but he also wrote novels and short stories for adults, screenplays and non - fictions, too!Roald Dahl was born near Cardiff, in Wales in 1916. Roald was sent off to boarding school when he was only nine years old. He was very homesick, and had a hard time obeying the strict teachers and the headmaster. In those days, teachers would sometimes hit their students with a cane(藤条)when they misbehaved. Later on, Roald integrated this fear and distrust of adults into many of his children’s books.During World War II, Roald joined the Royal Air Force. At one point, his plane crashed in the Libyan Desert. He was temporarily blinded, and stranded(滞留)in the middle of nowhere. Fortunately, he was rescued and within a few months had made a complete recovery. After his injuries forced him to leave the Air Force, Roald began writing. His first published piece was a magazine article about his plane crash. During the 1950s, he became an accomplished writer of short stories for adults. These stories usually featured mystery, suspense(悬念), and a twist ending.In 1961, Roald published James and the Giant Peach, which tells the story of a young boy who attempts to escape from his two bad aunts. The boy finally gets away by sailing across the ocean inside a magical giant peach. James and the Giant Peach was prompted by the bedtime stories Roald would make up for his young daughters.1He said that it was a challenge to keep them interested and attentive - he had to make his stories funny, exciting, and original. In 1964. he wrote his most famous book - Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, in which a poor boy wins a "golden ticket" to tour a mysterious world.1.

My car had broken down outside the town and I wanted to get in touch with the Automobile Association. Low grey clouds were drifting across the sky and there was a cold damp wind blowing off the sea. It had rained in the night and water was dripping from the bare trees that lined the street. I was glad that I was wearing a thick coat.There was no sign of a call box, nor was there anyone at that early hour I could ask. I had thought I might find a shop selling the Sunday papers or a milkman doing his job, but the town was completely dead.Then suddenly I found what I was looking for. There was a small post office, and it was almost hidden from sight in a dark narrow street next to which was the town's only public call box, which badly needed a coat of paint. I hurried forward but stopped in astonishment when I saw through the dirty glass that there was a man inside. He was very fat, and was wearing a cheap blue plastic raincoat and rubber boots. I could not see his face—he was bending forward over the phone with his back pressed against the glass and didn't even raise his head at the sound of my coming nearer and nearer. With care and surprise, I remained standing a few feet away and lit a cigarette to wait my turn. It was when I threw the dead match on the ground that I noticed something bright red trickling from under the call box door.66. The author was walking through the small seaside town . BA. late morningB. early morningC. before midnightD. late evening67. The weather of the day was , when the story happened. AA. windy, cold and cloudyB. stormy, damp and clearC. rainy, cold and clearD. rainy, windy and cold68. Why was the author astonished when he saw that there was a man in the call box? BA. Because the man inside was still wearing a raincoat.B. Because he didn't expect it to be taken up.C. Because the man had his back against the glass.D. Because the man did not seem to be moving.69. The author waited, standing a few feet away from the box because . DA. it was not safe to be close to the boxB. the man didn't notice his comingC. he wanted to have a cigarette to calm himself downD. it was bad manners to overhear others' phone calls70. What do you suppose happened to the man in the call box? BA. He was asleep.B. He had most probably been killed.C. He was lost in his important phone call.D. He was too fat to move around.Passage TwoI had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric ( 古怪的) farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for a minute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone... even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal ( 丑闻). I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn. I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!” he said.Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!” he said, and burst into tears again.71. The underlined phrase “make out” in the first paragraph means. BA. expectB. understandC. see clearlyD. hear clearly72. Before he arrived at the farmer's house, the writer expected to see Milly lying .

CA. farmerB. policemanC. country doctorD. newspaper reporterPassage ThreeVitamins are a group of substances found in food. The body needs them for life and health. So naturally, many people are concerned with the question: Am I getting enough vitamins, and am I getting the right kind?Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis. And this has something to do with their diet — the food they take in. A person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed with the possible exception of vitamin D.The problem is that there are many people who don't choose foods wisely, don't get enough variety, and don't eat the basic foods they need to get their vitamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not bestored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them. It is even harmful to put too much of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in.What foods supply what vitamins? Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1 which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. Vitamin B2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps bones and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certain fruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.76. Our body needs for life and health. AA. small amounts of each vitaminB. extra vitaminsC. all vitamins except vitamin DD. large amounts of certain vitamins77. Vitamin A is needed by and can be found in . CA. bones, porkB. nervous system, milkC. eyes, green vegetablesD. teeth, meats78. Vitamin B1 is very important to . AA. the digestive systemB. bonesC. liverD. skin79. What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need? DA. They will do great harm to our body.B. We get all the vitamins needed.C. Our body will function more properly.D. Our body simply gets rid of them.80. The passage has probably been taken from . BA. a sports magazineB. a journal of medical scienceC. an aged magazineD. a youth journalPassage FourIdeal conditions for flying a kite are a large open space like a field or a beach, and a steady wind, blowing from one direction, without any sudden gusts. Avoid spots such as clearings or river banks, where the wind is likely to change suddenly. Small kites will be much easier to launch in a gentle wind, and may well tear if the wind is too strong. Big kites on the other hand, will only take off in a reasonably strong wind. Stand with your back to the wind and unwind several meters of line, holding the kite at arm's length and pulling on the line gently. With a larger kite, ask a friend to help. He should stand a little way off, the kite held out in front of him, and let go when you give the signal. A kite should never be thrown into the air, but simply released when the wind is strongenough to lift it.Be very careful how you handle your kite and try to avoid any sudden movement once it is in the air. If a particularly violent gust of wind causes it to lose height, unwind a little of the line. Never pull it along on the ground once it has come down, or you will tear it.If you want to bring the kite down in a hurry, make the line fast or give it to someone to hold, put your arm over the line and run towards the kite. Always take a pair of scissors, some glue and two or three strips of crepe paper ( 绉纹纸) with you for on-the-spot repairs.Never fly a kite near a railway line or a busy road. If the kite comes down suddenly in front of a car, it may cause an accident. Never fly a kite in stormy weather because it could act as a lightning conductor (with you as the earth) !81. Where do people often fly kites? CA. In a large open field with sudden gusts.B. In a large open area with a strong wind.C. In a large open space with a steady wind blowing from one direction.D. At a beach with a gentle wind.82. The passage is mainly about . DA. the significance of flying a kiteB. the place selection and ways of flying a kiteC. some warnings to flying a kiteD. both B and C83. The underlined word "clearings" in the first paragraph probably means . AA. open spacesB. large playing-groundsC. places for clearing thingsD. areas which are very clear84. According to the passage, how should we bring a kite down in a hurry? BA. Pull the line gently and run towards the kite.B. Fix the line to a place, put the arm over the line and run towards the kite.C. Give the kite to someone to hold, put the arm over the kite and run towards the kite.D. Pull the kite and wind the line fast.85. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? BA. Most people like to fly kites.B. Flying a kite near a railway line is dangerous.C. It is very difficult to find an ideal space for flying a kite.D. There are many ways in which people fly their kites.Passage FiveAre you nervous? Maybe you should sit in a blue room. Are you always cold? Maybe you should sit in a room painted in a warm color such as soft orange. Are you often sad? Maybe you should sit in a yellow room. Some researchers believe that color has the power to affect our feelings. They believe that colors affect almost everyone in the same way. They tested the idea in different settings.One study was done in a workplace. The researchers painted heavy boxes white and lightboxes black. They wanted to see how color affected the workers' feelings. Which boxes do you think were more difficult to lift? The heavy white ones? No. The black boxes were more difficult. The white boxes were heavier but they looked light. The researchers think that this is because light colors seem light.Another study was done at a hospital with brown and dark green walls. Painters repainted the hospital walls in bright colors—bright orange on the first floor, bright pink on the second, bright green on the third. Guess what happened? The patients changed. They visited each other and talked more. The workers also changed and were happier about their work.Another study was done at a school. Researchers at the University of Alberta in Edmonton , Canada , studied children with behavior problems in their classroom. When the walls were brown and yellow, the children's heart rates went up and they were overactive. When the walls were light and dark blue, the children's heart rates were slower and the children were much calmer.If this is true, people might start to think carefully about the colors around them—not just in houses, but also in offices, in schools, in hospitals, in gyms, in prisons, in museums, and in restaurants!86. What is the main idea of this article? DA. Children are calmer in light blue rooms.B. If you are sad, sit in a yellow room.C. A heavy box seems light if it has a light color.D. Colors affect people's feelings.87. Which of the following places is NOT mentioned in the examples to show how colors affect people's feelings? CA. Hospital.B. Workplace.C. Restaurant.D. School.88. Colors such as red, yellow, and soft orange make people feel . BA. coldB. warmC. sadD. tired89. Blue makes people feel . BA. warmB. calmC. nervousD. active90. A dark colored box looks than a light colored box. BA. lighterB. heavierC. softerD. bigger四.作文Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic "Health and Sports". You should write no less than 80 words.。

For each questions there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1College is a new and different experience for me. I'm away from home, so I have many things to adjust to, e.g. being on my own, talking with friendly people. These are some of the things I like about college.First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility, of being on my own. My parents aren't around to say, "No, you'renot going out tonight." or "Did you finish your homework?" Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a current or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions!Friendly people, that's another thing I like about college. On my first day I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what building we were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didn't know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, "Are you a new student?" When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said: "Oh, just follow us; that's where we're going." Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick: New York is a very good place, too!31.The text is perhaps written by ____a____.A.a new studentB. a new teacherC. a foreign reporterD.a foreign visitor32. What does "gives me a sense of responsibility" in the first sentence of Paragraph 2mean? It means ___d_____.A. I shall be responsible for my parentsB. I shall be responsible for my teacherC. I shall be responsible for the schoolD. I shall be responsible for myself33. From Paragraph 3 we know that ____d____.A. the writer knew Marymount University quite wellB. the writer was a student from VirginiaC. the writer came to Marymount University aloneD. the writer liked his/her dorm very much34. What is New Gerard?cA. It's a student's name.B. It's a teacher's nameC. It's a dorm's name.D. It's a school's name.35. Which of the following is NOT true?dA. People in Marymount University are friendly.B. The writer likes the new experience in the university.C. The writer drove to Marymount University on the first day.D. The writer is not homesick.Passage 2At the center of our solar system is a star called the Sun. It is a ball of very hot gases. Its diameter is more than 100 times as big as that of the Earth. It gives off powerful rays of light in the form of radiant energy. This energy travels to the Earth at a speed of approximately 300,000 kilometers per second. This means that sunlight takes 8.33 minutes to get to the Earth.The temperature on the surface of the Sun is about 5,520°C, and it is much hotter inside. Scientists now believe that the heat of the Sun comes from natural atomic energy. In this process,hydrogen is believed to be changed to helium (氦) with an enormous amount of energy given off. The mass (matter) is changed to energy. This energy is in the form of heat, light, and other forms of radiation.36. The author makes all of the following statements about the Sun EXCEPT that it___d___.A.is a starB.emits light raysC.is made up of gassesD.is more than 100 times heavier than the Earth37. It can be inferred from the passage that the temperature of the outer rim (缘) of theSun is ___b___.A.hotter than the Earth’s interiorB.cooler than the Sun’s interiorC.as hot as the Earth’s interiorD.as hot as the Sun’s interior38. The author implies that scientists at one time did not believe that atomic energywas ___a___.A.the source of the Sun’s heatB.contained in the Earth’s coreC.able to travel at the speed of lightD.less powerful than solar energy39. According to the passage, which of the following best describes the manner inwhich the Sun is thought to produce energy?dA.Helium heats hydrogen, which gives off light.B.Heat and light melt hydrogen, which produces helium.C.Light produces hydrogen and helium, which gives off energy.D.Hydrogen turns into helium, which gives off light and heat.40. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?dA.The Sun --- the Largest Star in the Sky.B.The Sun --- The Brightest Star in the Sky.C.The Sun --- Ball of Hot Gasses.D.The Sun --- Great Source of Energy.Passage 3In 1920, after some thirty-nine years of problems with disease, high costs, and politics, the Panama Canal was officially opened, finally linking the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans by allowing ships to pass through the fifty-mile canal zone instead of traveling some seven thousand miles around Cape Horn. It takes a ship approximately 8 hours to complete the trip through the canal and costs an average of fifteen thousand dollars, one-tenth of what it would cost an average ship to round the Horn. More than fifteen thousand ships pass through its locks (船闸) each year.The French initiated the project but sold their rights to the United States. The latter will control it until the end of the twentieth century when Panama takes over its duties.41. Who currently controls the Panama Canal?cA. FranceB.

Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.And so there are many similarities between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. However, the fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor 61 that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage; for there are very important differences 62 the teacher’s work and the actor’s work. The actor has to speak words which he ahs learned 63 ; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part; 64 his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually fixed 65 . What he has to do is to make all these carefully learned words and actions seem natural on the stage.The good teacher works in 66 different way. His audience takes an active part in his play, they ask and answer questions, they 67 orders, and if they do not understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act 68 the need of his audience which is his class. He cannot keep his part in mind, but must 69 it as he goes along.I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to play a part in a stage-play because their brains would not keep discipline; they could not keep strictly to 70 .c61.

Jumping out of bed,he took his gun and hurried to the bedroom window. The room was not shining and the night was rather dark. But he could see a white shape. It looked like a man in the garden. He pointed his gun at it,fired and went back to bed. Early in the morning,he went down to the garden. His shirt was hanging from a tree. He had washed it the day before and hung it on the tree do dry. It had a hole right through the middle. Mr. Robinson was really frightened out of his life when he saw it and began to tremble(颤抖). His neighbour arrived at that moment.“How are you today,Mr,Robinson?”he asked in an anxious voice. “You don't look well.”“I'm all right,thank you,”said Mr. Robinson. “But I'm lucky to be alive. You see that shirt there?”“Yes?”said the neighbour.“If I'd been wearing that shirt last night,”said Mr. Robinson,“I'd be a dead man now.”31.

The title “A Narrow Escape”suggests that one has_______.[A] succeeded in escaping to escape[B] failed[C] run away[D] only just avoided deathPassage 2One of the most popular literary figures in American literature is a woman who spent almost half of her life in China, a country on a continent thousands of miles from the United States. In her life time she earned his country’s most highly acclaimed literary award, the Pulitzer Prize, and also the most prestigious form of literary recognition in the world, the Nobel Prize for Literature. Pearl S. Buck was almost a household word throughout much of her lifetime because of her prolific output, which consisted of some eighty-five published works, including several dozen novels, six collections of short stories, fourteen books for children, and more than a dozen works of nonfiction. When she was eighty years old, some twenty-five volumes were awaiting publication. Many of those books were set in China, the land in which she spent so much of her life. Her books and her life served as a bridge between the cultures of the East and the West. As the product of those two cultures shebecame, as she described herself, “mentally bifocal”. Her unique background made her into an unusually interesting and versatile human being. As we examine the life of Pearl Buck, we cannot help but be aware that we are in fact meeting three separate people: a wife and mother, an internationally famous writer, and a humanitarian and philanthropist. One cannot really get to know Pearl Buck without learning about each of the three. Though honored in her lifetime with the William Dean Howell Medal of the American Academy of Arts and Letters in addition to the Nobel and Pulitzer Prizes, Pearl Buck as a total human being, not only a famous author, is a captivating subject of study.36. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A) To offer a criticism of the works of Pearl Buck.B) To illustr ate Pearl Buck’s views on Chinese literature.C) To illustrate the background and diverse interests of Pearl Buck.D) To discuss Pearl Buck’s influence on the cultures of the East and the West.37. According to the passage, Pearl Buck was an unusual figure in American literature in that she ______.A) wrote extensively about a very different cultureB) published half of her books abroadC) won more awards than any other woman of her timeD) achieved her first success very late in life38. According to the pa ssage, Pearl Buck described herself as “mentally bifocal” to suggest that she was ______.A) capable of resolving the differences between two distinct linguistic systemsB) keenly aware of how the past could influence the futureC) capable of producing literary works of interest to both adults and childrenD) equally familiar with two different cultural environments39. The word “prolific” in Line 6 is closest in meaning to which of the following?A) influential.B) impressive.C) fruitful.D) outstanding.40. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A) All of Pearl Buck’s books were written in China.B) Pearl Buck won several literary awards for her works.C) Pearl Buck knew both American and Chinese cultures very well.D) One has to study the different aspects of Pearl Buck in order to understand her well.Passage 3The general principles of dynamics (力学) are rules which demonstrate a relationship between the motions of bodies and the forces which produce those motions. Based in large part on the work of his predecessors (前辈), sir Isaac Newton deduced (推出) three laws of dynamics which he published in 1667 in his famous " Principia ".Prior to Newton, Aristotle had established that the natural state of a body was a state of rest, and that unless a force acted upon it to maintain motion, a moving body would come to rest. Galileo had succeeded in correctly describing the behavior of falling objects and in recording that no force was required to maintain a body in motion. He noted that the effect of force was to change motion. Huygens recognized that a change in the direction of motion involved acceleration (加速), just as did a change in speed, and further, that the action of a force was required. Kepler deduced the laws describing the motion of planets around the sun. It was primarily from Galileo and Kepler that Newton borrowed.41.Huygens stated that acceleration was required _____.A only for a change in speedB only for a change in directionC neither for a change in direction nor for a change in speedD either for a change in direction or for a change in speed42. Which of the following scientists established that the natural state of a body was a state of rest ?A Galileo.B Newton.C Aristotle .D Kepler.43. The first scientist who correctly described the behavior of falling objects was ______.A KeplerB NewtonC GalileoD Aristotle44.

Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Passage oneRites of PassageSuddenly there come times when everything is different —you’resomehow another personSeveral years ago my parents, my wife, my son, and I ate at one of those restaurants where the menu is written on a blackboard. After a wonderful dinner, the waiter set the bill in the middle of the table. That’s when it happened: my father did not reach for the bill.Conversation continued. Finally it dawned on me. I was supposed to pick up the bill! After hundreds of restaurant meal with my parents, after a lifetime of thinking of my father as the one who had the money, it had all changed. I reached for the check, and my view of myself was suddenly altered. I was an adult.Some people mark off their lives in years; I measure mine in small events —in rites of passage. I did not become a young man at a particular age, like 13, but rather when a kid walked into the store where I worked and called me “mister”. He repeated it several times, looking straight at me. The realization hit like a punch: Me! I was suddenly a mister.There have been other milestones. The cops of my youth always seemed big, even huge, and of course they were older than I was. Then one day they were suddenly neither. In fact, some were kids —short kids at that.The day came when I suddenly realized that all the football player in the game I was watching were younger than I was. They were just big kids. With that milestone went the dream that someday, maybe, I too could be a football player. Without ever having reached the hill, I was over it.I never thought that I would fall asleep in front of the television set as my father did. Now it’s what I do best. I never thought that I would go to the beach and not swim. Yet I spent all of August at the seaside and never once went into the ocean. I never thought that I would like opera, but now the sadness and combination of voice and orchestra appeal to me.I never thought that I would prefer to stay home evenings, but now I find myself passing up parties. I used to think that people who watched birds were strange, but this summer I found myself watching them, and maybe I’ll get a book on the subject. I long for a religious conviction that I never th ought I’d want, and in arguments with my son, I repeat what my father used to say to me. I still lose.One day I bought a house. One day —what a day! —I became a father, and not too long after that I picked up the bill for my own father. I thought then it was a rite of passage for me. But one day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him too. Another milestone.the young man picked up the bill and paid it, ____.A)he felt that his father should have paid itB)he was glad to have the chance pay the bill for onceC)he realized he was now an adultD)his father said he would pay it as he usually did soman marked off his life not by the passing years but by _____.A)comparing himself with other peopleB)certain meaningful eventsC)counting the milestones of his lifeD)recalling events of the pastthe writer was young, _____.A) he looked forward to the day when he would be like his fatherB)it seemed to him that the policeman were big and tallC)he felt bird watching was an interesting hobbyD)he couldn’t understand why his father fell asleep while watching TV didn’t the writer go swimming while he was at the beach in AugustA)Because he liked going to the opera.B)Because he preferred to watch birds.C)Because he was not young anymore.D)Because he did not know how to swim.the writer argued with his son, ____.A)he used the same reasons as his father didB)he always succeeded in winning the argumentsC)he sometimes managed to persuade his son to agree with himD)he seldom succeeded in winningPassage twoThe verb procrastinate comes from the Latin procrastinate, which means to postpone until tomorrow. To procrastinate, then, is to delay doing something until some future time, and a procrastinator is someone who is always putting off what he or she should be doing right now.Those of us who have a tendency toward procrastination know that it is a terrible habit. Every day we tell ourselves that we must start doing things immediately, and each day we postpone our work, are late for deadlines, and put off keeping our promises to other people. Because we are always in the process of procrastinating, we are also always trying to catch up. We are always doing yesterday's jobs today, and tomorrow we will be doing today's unfinished work.Maybe the way to overcome procrastination is to change our habits gradually. We can start with a daily schedule of the things we want or need to accomplish. But let's be reasonable. We shouldn't crowd the list with too many tasks, and we should be realistic about what we can do. Especially in the beginning we should be lenient(宽大的, 仁慈的) with ourselves. After all, if we get discouraged at the start, we will go right back to our old habits.Finally, if we begin to follow our own schedule for each day, we will stop postponing the chores that face us. Life will become far less complicated and each day will be easier to face. We will undoubtedly feel better about ourselves, too, because we will know that we can overcome our weaknesses and improve ourselves.1. The first paragraph tells us _____ of the word procrastinate.A) the originB) the meaningC) the historyD) both A and B2. A procrastinator is a person who always postpones ___work.A) importantB) unimportantC) important or unimportantD) uninteresting3. The first step suggested by the author to change the habit of procrastinating is ___.A) not to fill our plans with too many tasksB) to make a plan for everyday activitiesC) to list as many tasks as possibleD) not to be reasonable with our plan4. Procrastinators do not live a happy life, because___.A) life is complicated and uneasy for them to faceB) they can't choose what to doC) things often become more difficult the next dayD) they will lose interest in doing things5. The author of the passage tries to tell us ___.A) that to be a procrastinator is not easyB) to be procrastinatorsC) that to be a procrastinator is bad for oneselfD) that being a procrastinator is good for othersPassage threeA good reader is one who can read beyond the lines, seeing ideas implied through the words, and one who can bridge the gap between the obvious and the suggested, thus obtaining much more information. Let's look at the following sentence: JOHN HENDERSON WAS DRIVING HOME LATE LAST NIGHT FROM AN EXHAUSTING BUSINESS TRIP.As you might have realized, this is the opening sentence of a story. It tells the reader whom the story is about -- John Henderson, and when the event takes place -- late one night, if we read carefully and thoughtfully we can also infer from this sentence that1. John Henderson may be a businessman because he has just finished a "business trip"2. John Henderson must be very tired because the trip is "exhausting"3. John Henderson must be very eager to get home because he is driving "late" at night right after this exhausting trip.Making inferences while reading will always help us achieve a better comprehension. But we should keep in mind that inferences must be made with care and supported by evidence. In order to make reasonable inferences we should1. read and think beyond the primed words;2. analyze the information given in the text;3. determine the author's reason for his choice of words.1. According to the author, a good reader___.A) can read between the linesB) should have a large vocabularyC) knows enough grammar rulesD) must have a good knowledge of the author2. From the quoted sentence, you know John Henderson was most likely___.A) a sellerB) a man on businessC) a driverD) a traveler3. From the quoted sentence, you know John Henderson had a ___.A) tired tripB) bored tripC) boring tripD) tiring trip4. When the author asks us to make inferences while reading, he intends to say___.A) make guessesB) have imaginationsC) do translationsD) reach conclusions5. The best topic of the passage is ____.A) Reading SkillsB) Try to Be a Good ReaderC) Reading Is ImportantD) Reading Is ThinkingPassage fourMan's first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it.(The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature —no living thing was ever created with wheels.) How, then, did man come to invent the wheel Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the dead body of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected at their centers by a strong stick. This would roll along just as the logs did yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being, and with them the first carts.1. The wheel is important because _______.A. it was man's first real inventionB. all transportation depends on itC. every machine depends on itD. both B and C2. The wheel is described as _______.A. simpleB. complicatedC. strangeD. light3. It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel because ______.A. it led to many other inventionsB. man had no use for it thenC. there were no wheels in natureD. it was very complicated4. This passage says that the first wheel might have been a _______.A. round piece of stoneB. heavy logC. piece of metalD. slice of log5. The idea of making wheels might have come from ______.A. chasing an animalB. watching a rolling trunkC. watching running animalsD. rolling the dead body of an animal on logsPart III ClozeHave you 1)_____ asked yourself why children go to school You will probably say that they go 2)_____ their own language and other languages, arithmetic, history, science and 3)_____ subjects.
