Each passage is followed by some 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 and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Question 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Censorship (审查制度) is for the good of society as a whole. Imagine what chaos there would be if we lived in a society without laws. Like the law, censorship contributes to the common good.Some people think that it is disgraceful that a censor should interfere with works of art. Who is this person, they say, to ban this great book or cut that great film? No one can set himself up as a superior being. But we must remember two things. Firstly, where genuine works of art are concerned, modern censors are extremely liberal in their views----often far more liberal than a large section of the public. Artistic merit is something which censors clearly recognize. And secondly, we must bear in mind that the great proportion of books, plays and films which come before the censor are very far from being "works of art".When discussing censorship, therefore, we should not confine our attention to great masterpieces, but should consider the vast numbers of publications and films which make up the bulk (大部分) of the entertainment industry. When censorship laws are relaxed, dishonest people are given a licence to produce virtually anything in the name of "art". There is an increasing tendency to equate "artistic" with "pornographic" (色情的).So one of the great things that censorship does is toprevent certain people from making fat profits by corrupting the minds of others. Society would really be poorer if it deprived itself of the wise counsel and the restraining influence which a censor provides.51. A censor's duty is ____.A) to see there is no filthy content in publications or filmsB) to ban books and cut filmsC) to distinguish works of art from othersD) to make sure that no licence is given to dishonest people52.Some people are against censorship for the reason that ____.A) censorship is not consistent with the ideals of democracyB) censors prevent people from making profitsC) censors are conservative and cannot appreciate artistic meritD) censorship limits the way people feel and think53.When the writer says "to equate 'artistic' which 'pornographic', he means ____.A) there is no clear distinction between what is artistic and what is pornographicB) masterpieces are sometimes offensive to decencyC) many pornographic works will be published in the name of artD) artistic works and pornographic works have the same market value54.According to the writer, a society free from censorship ____.A) would be poor materiallyB) would expose its people to dangers of being corruptedC) could not develop its entertainment industryD) would allow only a small section of people to make profits55.All the following are the writer's views except that ____.A) censors are fully qualified for their jobB) masterpieces even with pornographic content are still masterpiecesC) society will not do without censorshipD) many books, plays and films are not works of artPassage 2Question 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:A few weeks ago I was talking to a school inspector in one of the more fashionable districts of Paris. She astonished me by saying that if she had young children today, she'd probably send them to a private school. She had devoted 25 years of her life to the ideal of free public education, she said, but the truth was the state system was in a mess.There are two main problems: State schools in France have to accept whatever teachers are assigned to them by the Ministry of Education. As my school inspector friend put it, "one year a school may be excellent; three or four years later, half the teachers may be incapable!" That is not very reassuring if you're a parent. Private schools can choose their own teachers.The other problem is discipline or, rather, the lack of it. Not long ago a school in Birmingham made headlines in Britain because the teachers were being terrorized by their pupils. In the desolate suburbs of low-cost apartment blocks, thrown together in the 1960s on the outskirts of most big French cities, such stories are commonplace. Vandalism(破坏他人财产的行为), drug-taking and extortion aren'tlimited to schools in poor areas either. A recent poll found that 88 per cent of French children rate as the biggest problem of their school lives the prevalence (流行, 猖獗)of factions and gangs which spend all their time fighting one another. Small wonder, then, that the private schools, with their emphasis on traditional values, are undergoing a new surge of popularity (despite disapproval from France's newsocialist leaders), and competition to get into the best of them has now become intense.56.The French school inspector has long been a supporter of ____.A) compulsory education B) free private educationC) private schools D) the state school system57.The French state education system ____.A) does not guarantee the competence of teachers B) seems to have no serious difficultiesC)is running smoothly D) promises to maintain high standards58.Private schools in France today ____.A) are generally undergoing changes for the worseB) enjoy the prestige(声望) of becoming the place to send one's children toC) have become victims of vandalismD) never hire teachers who stress traditional valuesck of discipline among students is rampant in state schools ____.A) in the Paris slums, but not in other areasB) noticeably and solely in the poorer areas in French citiesC) almost everywhere in FranceD) rather restricted to Birmingham60.France children who wish to go to the best private schools can do so by ____.A) taking highly competitive examinations B) simply sending in applications C) joining factions and gangs D) drawing lotsPart Ⅲ Cloze ( 10 points, 15 minutes )Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should choose the One that th e best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the cettre.Today vegetables, fish, fruit, meat and beer are canned in enormous quantities. Within three generations the 81 habits of millions have been revolutionized. Foods that were previously 82 may now be eaten at any time, and strange foods are 83 far from the countries where they are 84 . The crops many farmers now produce often depend on the nearness of a canning factory.The first stage in the canning 85 is the preparation of the raw food. Diseased and waste portions are thrown 86 ; meat and fish are cleaned and trimmed; fruit and vegetables washed and graded for 87 . The jobs are principally 88 by machine.The next stage, for vegetables only, is soak in very 89 or boiling water for a short time to remove air and 90 the vegetable. This makes 91 easier to pack into cans for sterilization (free from living germs).Some packing machines fill 92 to 400 cans a minute. Fruit, fish and meat are packed raw and cold into cans, and then all the air is removed. 93 the cans are sealed, the pressure inside each can is only about half thepressure of the outside air.The sterilization process which follows the cans are subjected 94 steam or boiling water, with the temperature and time 95 according to the type of food. Cans of fruit, for example, 96 only 5-10 minutes in boiling water, 97 meat and fish are cooked at higher temperatures for 98 period. After sterilization, the cans are cooled quickly to 32 degree to prevent the contents 99 becoming too soft.The final stage before sending off to the grocer is labeling, and packing the tins into boxes. Nowadays, however, labeling is often printed on in 100 by the can-maker and no paper labels are then required.81.A) eat B) eatable C) eaten D) eating82.A) monthly B) year-round C) seasonal D) quarterly83.A) accessible B) obtained C) available D) usable84.A) planting B) grown C) growing D) producing85.

A) up B) down C) in D) on93. A) When B) If C) Although D) Before94.A) on B) to C) in D) at95.A) varies B) vary C) varied D) varying96.A) cost B) spend C) take D) consume97.A) as B) because C) while D) for98.A) less B) longer C) shorter D) more99.A) off B) through C) by D) from100. A) fashion B) before hand C) advance D) practicePart IV English-Chinese Translation (20 points, 15 minutes)Directions: In this part, there are six items which you should translate into Chinese, each item consisting one or more sentences.

In both cases, the differences between white and nonwhite were even more substantial than between poverty and nonpoverty areas.⑥ (line 3-4, para. 4, passage 6) Monitoring by computer has proven to be very accurate and increases early discovery of life threatening events.Part V &n, bsp; Writing (20 points, 35 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 35 minutes to write a composition on the topic Diligence is the Father of Success.

At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks didn’t work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sen through another part. In this way the computer network system would keep on working all the time.At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks began to use it, too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. At the beginning of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use. And scientists developed software that made Internet “surfing” more convenient.Today it is easy to get online and it is said that millions of people use the Internet every day.16. The Internet was set up in _____________.A. 1960B. the 1960sC. 1970D. the 1970s17.

He did not want to be early or late. He had forgotten to put on his watch so he went up to a man who was waiting for a taxi.“Excuse me, sir,” he said, very politely, “but could you tell me the time?”The man, who was very well-dressed and looked quite rich, said nothing. He did noteven look at Alan. Alan spoke to him again. “Excuse me, sir,” he said, “but could you please tell me w hat time it is?”This time the man looked at him, but he did not speak and looked quickly away. Alan thought to himself: well, he can hear me; he must be just rude. So Alan asked again, “Why wouldn’t you tell me the time, sir?”The man turned towards him a nd said, “Put yourself in my shoes. I am standing here waiting for a taxi. You come up to me and ask me for the time. If I tell it to you, you will thank me. I will say ‘That’s all right.’ You may then say ‘It’s a beautiful day,’ to which I may reply ‘Yes,I like these sunny winter days.’ Before we know what is happening we have a friendly conversation. You are a pleasant, polite yo7ung man, so when my taxi comes, I offer you a ride. You accept. We talk. I like you. You like me.I invite you to my home. You meet my daughter. She is a very pretty girl. You are a good-looking man. You like each other. Soon you fall in love. You want to marry. Now do you understand my problem?”Alan shook his head. “No, sir, I’m sorry, I don’t. Everything you have said seems ve ry natural to me.”“Exactly,” the man said, “and I do not want my daughter to marry a man who is too poor to buy a watch. Good morning to you.” And with these words he hurried away.21. Why did Alan ask the man what time it was?A. He was too late.B. He was very early.C. He had left his watch home.D.

The story is mainly about ____________.A. how rude a person can beB. how one thing leads to anotherC. where a person can’t tell the timeD. why you shouldn’t speak to strangersPassage ThreeWhat are the beauties of Hawaii? Let’s start w ith four.The beach, famous for its water temperature, air temperature and waves, is the first beauty. There are hundreds of miles of beaches on the twenty islands of Hawaii. They are thought to be among the finest beaches in the world.Then, what do you think would be the second beautiful thing? It is volcanoes (火山), of course. These volcanoes are not just a part of the islands; they made the islands in the first place. Because of them the islands are still growing.What would be the third thing of beauty that the first visitor to Hawaii would notice? It probably wouldn’t be just one thing, but many things: all the wonderful fruits and flowers of the islands. Sugar cane, bananas and pineapples are Hawaii’s biggestexports. Sugar cane has been growing in Hawaii for a thousand years. As for pineapples, the islands produce more than any other places in the world, which has made Dole Company the biggest fruit-packing company in the world.The fourth and most beautiful thing about Hawaii is the people who live there. The Hawaiians never rush, and perhaps this is because they care more for human life than they care for the machine. There is an old Hawaiian law that a man can go to sleep in the middle of the road if he wants to. What makes the people of Hawaii so beautiful is their feeling about people. There are 64 different combinations of races on the islands, and they all live in peace. They believe “Above all nations is humanity.” That is the most beautiful thing of all.26. According to the passage, Hawaii is made up of ___________.A. one islandB. twenty islandsC. sixty-four islandsD. hundreds of islands27. Why are the volcanoes so special to the islands?A. They are not a part of the islands.B. They actually made the islands.C. They are the first in the world.D. They are growing.28. What has made Dole Company the biggest fruit-packing company in the world?A. Sugar.B. Sugar cane.C. Bananas.D. Pineapples.29. The people in Hawaii are the most beautiful thing because ___________.A. they had a peaceful historyB. they can sleep in the middle of the roadC. there are 64 different races on the islandsD. they care more for people than anything else30. According to the passage, “above all nations is humanity” might mean ___________.A. not all nations have humanityB. humanity is as important as a nationC. humanity has no national boundariesD. all human beings should live in peacePassage FourThere is a measurable relation between how much a person learns and his attitude toward the subject to be learned. When faced with a difficult learning task, one path to success is to concentrate on the positive aspects of the subject matter. If a student has a boring teacher, one solution is to look for the positive aspects of completing the course, regardless of how boring the teacher happens to be. To accomplish this might require a private tutor or some independent reading, but with the right attitude, success is possible.Over-achievers – students who do better than their test scores show – usually have a positive interest toward learning. They may learn some things more slowly, and they may make more efforts, but, to compensate (补偿), they are often better at applying what they have learned. As long as they do not have emotional problems, they are successful.Under-achievers – those who function below their ability shown by test scored –often tend to allow a few negative factors to affect them. Because of their negative attitudes, they sometimes become unfairly critical of teachers. They allow themselves to get bored when it is not necessary. In short, their attitudes often cause them to learn less than over-achievers.If you learn to replace a negative attitude toward learning with something more。

After nine years as a senior writer, I was forced to tradein my private office for a seat at a long, shared table. It felt like my boss had rippedoff my clothes and left me standing in my underwear.However, about 70 percent of U.S. offices now have no or low partitions. SiliconValley has been the leader in bringing down the dividers. Google, Yahoo and American Express are all adherents. Facebook designed the largest open floor planin the world, housing nearly 3,000 engineers.These new floor plans are ideal for maximizing a company’ space whileminimizing costs. Bosses love the ability to keep a closer eye on their employees, ensuring movie-watching, constant social media-browsing and unlimited personal cellphone use isn’ t occupying billing hours.While employees feel like they ’ repart of a relaxed, innovative enterprise, the environment ultimately damages workers’ attention spans, creativity and satisfaction. Furthermore, a sense of privacy boosts job performance, while the opposite can cause feelings of helplessness. In addition to the distractions, my colleagues and I havebeen more vulnerable to illness. Last flu season took down a succession of my co-workers like dominoes.As the new space intended, I’ ve formed interesting, unexpected bonds with my colleagues. But my personal performance at work has hit an all-time low. Each day,my associatesand I are seated at a table staring at each other, having an ongoing12-person conversation from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Those who have worked in privateoffices for decades have proven to bethe most noisy and tough. They haven’ t had to consider how their loud habits affect others, so I can only work effectively duringtimes when no one else is around, or if I isolate myself in one of the small,constantly sought-after, glass-windowed meeting rooms.To make the open-office model work, employers have to take measures toimprove work efficiency. For one, they should create more private areas — oneswithout open windows. Also, they should implement rules on when interaction shouldbe limited. And please, let ’ s eliminate the music that blanketsorkspacesourw. Companies could simply join another trend — allowing employees to work from home. That model boosts productivity, with employees working more hours and taking fewer breaks. There are fewer interruptions when employees work remotely. At home, my greatest distraction is the refrigerator.51.Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A.The author enjoyed working in an open office.B.This open-office model has gained popularity.panies are compelled to shift to an open office.D.Google and Yahoo refuse to go along with the trend.rge open floor plans can help bosses to______.A.reduce investment in researchB. show movies to workers in the officeC. supervise co-workers ’ conversationsD. restrict the use of personal cell phones53. According to Paragraph 4, an open office______.A. can benefit workers’ mental healthB. brings no relaxation to workers at allC. adversely affects productivity and healthD. contributes to better productivity54.It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 that in an open office______.A.fellow workers are likely to spend a long time talkingB.one ’ s personal performance can be improved easilyC.work efficiency can be ensured amid frequent interactionD.most of the workers can easily become close friends55.The last sentence of this passage suggests that the author______.A.can hardly concentrate on his work at homeB.often suffers from the noise of the refrigeratorC.works more efficiently at home than in the open officeD.has nobody to talk to while working at home56.The central idea of this passage is that the open-office model ______.A.should be highly recommendedB.is destroying the workplaceC.is more of a blessing than a curseD.proves to be quite innovativePassage TwoThe mosquito-borne Zika virus, which has spread to 22 countries in the Americas,is terrifying to pregnant women and their partners. The virus may cause birth defects inbabies whose mothers were infected during pregnancy. In Brazil more than 4,000 havebeen born with abnormally small heads since last October, compared with fewer than200 in a typical year. The response of several governments has triggered a debateabout abortion and birth control which may outlast the outbreak itself.It started after some governments advised women to delay getting pregnant.Colombia, which has the second-highest number of infections after Brazil, advisedwomen to wait six to eight months. Jamaica issued a similar recommendation, eventhough no cases of Zika have yet been reported there. El Salvador ’governmentssuggested that women should delay pregnancy until 2018. Panama warned womenfrom vulnerable communities not to conceive.Some women find this advice rather bossy. Others say that governments havedone little to help women control their fertility. A lobby group in New York notes thatrates of teenage pregnancy in Latin America are among the world ’ s highest, as 56% pregnancies in Latin America and the Caribbean are unintended.Rates of accidental pregnancy are high because sex education is inadequateand birth control is hard to come by. Health workers are reluctant to prescribecontraceptives to teenagers or to women who have not yet given birth. If women areto avoid pregnancy, governments must inform them better and provide more accessto contraception for both men and women.Some argue that the Zika crisis should prompt countries to liberalize policies thatseverely restrict abortion. In El Salvador, which does not allow abortion even if awoman’ s life is at risk, activists are stepping up their campaign for a change in thelaw. A Brazilian newspaper argued that Brazil should end its ban on most abortions.Rather than calling on women to delay pregnancy, Brazil is sensiblyconcentrating its efforts on the mosquito responsible, which also carries dengue andyellow fever. The country had stamped out the threat by 1958 but let down its guardand allowed it to return. The health minister announced that insect repellent will bedistributed to 400,000 expectant mothers. Some 310,000 health workers areteaching people how to keep mosquitoes at bay. Following WHO guidelines, Braziladvises women contemplating pregnancy on how to avoid getting bitten bymosquitoes. Women need facts, not fertility targets.57.The first paragraph is primarily concerned with ______.A.the harm done by the Zika virusB.abortion and birth controlC.the response of some countriesD.the origin of the Zika virus58.The rate of infections with the Zika virus is the highest in ______.A. ColombiaB. BrazilC. JamaicaD. Panama59.Rates of accidental pregnancy are high in Latin America because of thefollowing except______.A.insufficient sex education or information on pregnancyB.the reluctance to prescribe contraceptives to teenagersC.poor accessibility of birth control for men and womenD.the extremely low rate of marriage in some countries60.Which of the following is true according to this passage?A.Abortion is strictly prohibited in the whole of Latin America.B.Activists in El Salvador are fighting for the right to abortion.C.Brazil has managed to eliminate the mosquito responsible.D.Most women have been convinced of the advice by governments.61.The underlined words in the last paragraph probably mean ______.A.stay away from mosquitoesB.try to make mosquitoes extinctC.confine mosquitoes to the beachD.culture some new mosquitoes62.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage?A.How to Contain the Zika Virus?B.Health during Pregnancy.C.To Breed, or not to Breed.D. Measures of Birth Control.。

阅读理解专项练习Passage 1The secret of being born lucky is a summer birthday, with May babies most likely to enjoy a lifetime’s good fortune, according to a study of more than 40,000 people. The time of year at which you are born has an enduring influence on levels of optimism and self-reported luck, according to a research by British and Swedish scientists. May was the luckiest month in which to be born, with 50 percent of those born then considering themselves lucky, while October was the least lucky month, with just 43 percent claiming good fortune.The findings add to growing evidence that the phenomenon of luck is not all down to chance, but is affected by a person’s general disposition. Other research has shown that whether people think themselves fortunate depends less on objective success than on having a “glass half-full” or “half-empty” approach to life. “What we are seeing suggests that something is influencing how people perceive their luckiness. My hypothesis is that people create their own luck by traits such as optimism, that luck is a psychological phenomenon rather than a matter of blind chance,” said Profe ssor Richard Wiseman, who led the research.The pattern of the result, with those born in spring and in summer reporting themselves luckier than those born in autumn or winter, could have two potential explanations, Professor Wiseman said.1.According to the passage, whether people think themselves lucky or not dependson the following factors EXCEPT _______.A. one’s objective successB. one’s general dispositionC. one’s attitude to lifeD. one’s place of birth2. According to the passage, those who were born in ________ regard themselves as the most fortunate.A. MarchB. AprilC. MayD. October3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Optimistic people tend to be luckier.B. Devoted people tend to be luckier.C. Objective success is more important than one’s general disposition in feeling lucky.D. People drinking more water tend to be luckier.4. Which of the following words can be best replace the word “trait” (Line7, Para.2)?A. Quality.B. Expectation.C. Belief.D. Idea5. What is the best title for the passage?A. Luck is Something BornB. Luck is Not All Down to ChanceC. Luck is a Matter of Blind ChanceD. Luck and AgePassage 2Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large “hot air balloon”. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.1. Leonardo Da Vinci _______.A. said that man would fly in the sky one dayB. built a kind of machine which never flewC. made designs for flying machinesD. drew many beautiful pictures of birds2. Eight hundred years ago an Englishman _______.A. made a kind of flying machineB. tried to fly with wings made of chicken feathersC. wanted to build a kind of balloonD. tried to fly on a large bird3. In fact, the Englishman who tried to fly _______.A. got badly woundedB. succeeded in flyingC. lost his lifeD. flew only 8 minutes4. The very first air passengers in the balloon were _______.A. two animalsB. the MontgolfiersC. two FrenchmenD. the King and Queen5. When did two Frenchmen rise above Paris?A. In December 1783.B. In September 1783.C. In the 17th century.D. In November 1783.Passage 3Dieting to lose weight has become very popular in recent years. People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more nutritiously（有营养的） and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many avoid the so called “plastic” fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients(成分) in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxing dinner without phone or TV interruptions.While dieting may be viewed as beneficial, it has also become a serious problem for Americans, particularly for young women. Dieting for them has actually become a psychological addiction(依赖). They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight, and although they look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat.The current waves of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public. Many schools, hospitals, health organizations, newspapers and magazines, for example, are offering classes, printing booklet articles, etc. to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet, of the dangers of dieting too rapidly, and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to “diet addiction”.1. These days people are dieting more because _______.A. they have become fatter and fatterB. they have realized the danger of eatingC. they have become more health consciousD. they have taken better care of themselves2. What changes have people made in the atmosphere of mealtime?A. They are taking more time for each meal.B. They are eating in quiet restaurants with more leisurely atmosphere.C. At home they are eating without phone or TV interruptions.D. All of the above.3. “They look like skeletons” in the third paragraph most probably means ________.A. they are very prettyB. they are very uglyC. they are too thinD. they are starving4. The main idea of the last paragraph is about ________.A. how the organizations try to help people with dieting addictionB. what kind of media can be used to educate the publicC. where people with dieting addiction can go to ask for helpD. what causes the organizations to begin educating the public5. According to the passage, we can infer that the atmosphere of eating has something to do with ________.A. dietingB. mannersC. healthD. exercisingPassage 4Do you know who Benjamin Banneker was and what he did? Benjamin Banneker was a self-educated scientist at a time when most African Americans were slaves. Born a free black man in the British Colony of Maryland in 1731, he received some formal education, but he mostly borrowed books and taught himself science and mathematics. At 22, he borrowed a pocket watch, and without any training, figured out how to carve a working wooden clock that chimed each hour. Because of this clock, he became well known and people would visit him just to see his creation.Banneker ran his family farm from many years, but when he was in his late 50s, a neighbor’s son lent him a telescope. He became interested in astronomy, the stud y of the planets and stars, and again taught himself a new science. He made calculations of tides, sunrises and sunsets, and even predicted an eclipse. For several years he published an almanac of these calculations. Today, he is best known for publishing six almanacs, called “Benjamin Banneker’s Almanac” between 1792 and 1797.In the 1790s, Banneker also helped survey and lay out the land for Washington, D. C., which became the nation’s capital. For a look at Banneker’s amazing life, visit the Benjamin Banneker Historical Park & Museum in Ellicott City, Maryland.1. What was the status of most African-Americans at Banneker’s time?A. Most African-Americans could have formal education.B. Most African-Americans could be self-educated.C.

Helping surveying the capital.C. Benjamin Banneker’s Almanac.D. A wooden clock.Passage 5The clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff they call “books”.I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I didn’t answer. In fact, I dare not.The clock struck twelve. “Oh, dear!” I cried.“Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!” We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy.The clock stroke one. I was quite desperate now. I forgot all I had learned.I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.”My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them. A few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.1.

Going over My LessonsPassage 6Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services. People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of others they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money.Most of the money today is made of metal pr paper. But people used to use all kinds of things as money. One of the first kinds of money was shells. Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money. In parts of Africa, cattle were one of the earliest money. Other animals were used as money too.The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. People strung them together and carried them from place to place. Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. The first coins in England were made of tin. Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later, other countries began to make coins of gold and silver.But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. They began to use paper money. The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than paper money used today.Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.1.

Why does the author say that even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive?A. Because they are difficult for people to obtain.B. Because they themselves are expensive, too.C. Because they are not easy to carry around.D. Because they are easy to steal.5. Which do you choose as the best title for this passage?A. Money and Its UseB. Different Things Used as MoneyC. Different Countries, Different MoneyD. The History of MoneyPassage 7In Denmark, parents are allowed to set up a new school if they are dissatisfied with the school in the area where they are living. Although these schools have to follow the national course, they are allowed a lot of choices in deciding what to teach.Some of these new schools are called “small schools” because usually the number of pupils in them is only sixty, but a school has to have at least twenty-seven pupils.

To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support the idea.Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn’t watch television.Several modern studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3,545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts: The more the men run, the more body fat they lost. The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate. Thus, those who run the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.1. The physical problem that many adult Americans have is that ________.A. they are too slimB. they work too hardC. they are too fatD. they lose too much body fat2. According to the article, given 500 adult Americans, ________ will have a weight problem.A. 30B. 50C. 100D. 1503. Is there any scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a weight problem?A. Yes, there is plenty of evidence.B. Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.C. There is hardly any scientific evidence to support that.D. We don’t know because the information is not given.4. In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of the 1910s _______.A. ate more food and had more physical activities.B. ate less food but had more activitiesC. ate less food and had less physical exerciseD. had more weight problems5. Modern scientific researchers have reported to us that ________.A. fat people eat less food and are less activeB. fat people eat more food than slim people and are more activeC. fat people eat more food than slim people but are less activeD. thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intakePassage 9Mass media, the tools of communication, can be divided into two groups: print media and electronic media. By print media, we mean books, newspapers and magazines. Electronic media include television, computer, radio and movie. Mass media allow us to record and pass information rapidly to a large, scattered audience. They extend our ability to talk to each other by helping us overcome barriers cause by time and space.Mass media make daily life easier for us in various ways. Firstly, they help us keep a watch on our world. They gather and pass on information we would be unlikely or unable to obtain on our own.Secondly, mass media help us arrange our time and life. What we talk about and what we think about are greatly influenced by the media. When people get together, they tend to talk about certain happenings in newspapers or on TV. Because we are exposed to different points of view through different kinds of media every day, we are able to evaluate all sides of a certain issue.Thirdly, the media are used to persuade people. Newspapers, magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colorful, persuasive advertisements. Though many advertisements may not say openly that they want you to buy a certain product, they describe their products in such a way that you may want to buy them.Fourthly, the media also entertain. All media make efforts to entertain their audience. For instance, even though the newspaper is a prime medium of information, it also contains entertainment features. Television, motion picture, some radio stations and magazines are devoted mainly to entertainment. It is estimated that in the future, the entertainment function of mass media will become even more important than it is now.1.What makes it possible for people living in different places to communicate witheach other?A. Printed media.B. Mass media.C. Electronic media.D. Computers.2. Which of the following functions of mass media is NOT mentioned?A. To make people well informed about the world.B. To amuse and entertain people.C. To help people arrange their time and life.D. To give people a sense of honor.3. Certain matters in newspapers or on TV tend to be talked about when people get together because ________.A. people are curious about themB. people are influenced by those mass mediaC. it is fashionable for people to do soD. it is easy for people to communicate in this way4. How does advertisement make people purchase certain goods according to the passage?A. By giving an attractive account of the goods.B. By asking people to buy them.C. By forcing people to buy them.D. By giving people something extra.5. Which of the following media is mainly devoted to information according to the passage?A. TV.B. Magazine.C. Motion pictures.D.

In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone of his body and rested in peace.The first real step took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large “hot air balloon”. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fil l a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.1. Leonardo Da Vinci _______.A. said that man would fly in the sky one dayB. built a kind of machine which never flewC. made designs for flying machinesD. drew many beautiful pictures of birds2. Eight hundred years ago an Englishman _______.A. made a kind of flying machineB. tried to fly with wings made of chicken feathersC. wanted to build a kind of balloonD. tried to fly on a large bird3. In fact, the Englishman who tried to fly _______.A. got badly woundedB. succeeded in flyingC. lost his lifeD. flew only 8 minutes4. The very first air passengers in the balloon were _______.A. two animalsB. the MontgolfiersC. two FrenchmenD. the King and Queen5. When did two Frenchmen rise above Paris?A. In December 1783.B. In September 1783.C. In the 17th century.D. In November 1783.Passage 11Community service is an important component of education here at our university.

The flashes reflected light could be seen several miles away. The enemy did not know what the flashes meant, but other Greek soldiers could understand the message.Roman soldiers in some places built long rows of signal towers. When they had a message to send, the soldiers shouted it from tower to tower. If there were enough towers and soldiers with loud voices, important news could be sent quickly over distance.In Africa, people learn to send messages by beating on a series of large drums. Each drum was kept within hearing distance of the next one. The drum beats were sent out in a special way that all the drummers understood. Though the messages were simple, they could be sent at great speed for hundreds of miles.In the eighteenth century, a French engineer found a new way to send short messages. In this way, a person held a flag in each hand and the arms were moved to various positions representing different letters of the alphabet. It was like spelling out words with flags and arms.Over a long period of time, people sent messages by all these different ways. However, not until the telephone was invented in America in the nineteenth century could people send speeches sounds over a great distance in just a few seconds. 1. According to this passage, the Roman way of communication depended very much upon _________.A. fine weatherB. high towerC. the spelling systemD. arm movements2.

A college education is completely necessary for each of us, but we have to ask what it 41 to get into college? High school grades and standardized tests arestill the most common measurements.42 this information is often considered alongside other sources of information, other indicators of college potential are typically not considered if high school grades and standardized test scores don't reach a certain 43.Even though standardized test scores do predict 44 performance and job performance, relying so heavily on these scores is problematic 45 a number of reasons. For one, studies have found that the SAT is a better predictor of college performance for white students.46 reason is that other key skills are neglectedthat contribute to life success, defined more 47 than merely the capacity for academic learning, including active learning 48, natural motivation, social-emotional intelligence, imagination, and creativity.Creativity and imagination are particularly important skills in this century, 49 how quickly this world is changing. This world needs people who are notonly quick learners, but also reflective learners as well as 50 of new knowledge.41. A. means B.takes C. seems D. likes42. A. But B. However C. While D. Yet43.

After nine years as a senior writer, I was forced to trade in my private office for a seat at a long, shared table. It felt like my boss had ripped off my clothes and left me standing in my underwear.However, about 70 percent of U.S. offices now have no or low partitions. Silicon Valley has been the leader in bringing down the dividers. Google, Yahoo and American Express are all adherents• Facebook designed the largest open floor plan in the world, housing nearly 3,000 engineers.These new floor plans are ideal for maximizing a company's space while minimizing costs. Bosses love the ability to keep a closer eye on their employees, ensuring movie-watching, constant social media-browsing and unlimited personal cellphone use isn't occupying billing hours-While employees feel like they're part of a relaxed, innovative enterprise, the environment ultimately damages workers' attention spans, creativity and satisfaction. Furthermore, a sense of privacy boosts job performance, while the opposite can cause feelings of helplessness. In addition to the distractions, my colleagues and I have been more vulnerable to illness. Last flu season took down a succession of my co-workers like dominoes.As the new space intended, Fve formed interesting, unexpected bonds with my colleagues. But my personal performance at work has hit an all-time low. Each day, my associates and I are seated at a table staring at each other, having an ongoing 12-person conversation from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Those who have worked in private offices for decades have proven to be the most noisy and tough. They haven't had to consider how their loud habits affect others, so I can only work effectively during times when no one else is around, or if I isolate myself in one of the small, constantly sought-after, glass-windowed meeting rooms.To make the open-office model work, employers have to take measures to improve work efficiency. For one, they should create more private areas —ones without open windows. Also, they should implement rules on when interaction should be limited. And please, let's eliminate the music that blankets our workspaces. Companies could simply join another trend 一allowing employees to work from home. That model boosts productivity, with employees working more hours and taking fewer breaks. There are fewer interruptions when employees work remotely. At home, my greatest distraction is the refrigerator.51.Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A.The author enjoyed working in an open office.B.This open-office model has gained popularity.panies are compelled to shift to an open office.D.Google and Yahoo refuse to go along with the trend.rge open floor plans can help bosses to.A.reduce investment in researchB.show movies to workers in the officeC.supervise co-workersconversationsD.restrict the use of personal cell phones53.According to Paragraph 4, an open office•A.can benefit workers' mental healthB.brings no relaxation to workers at allC.adversely affects productivity and healthD.contributes to better productivity54.It can be concluded from Paragraph 5 that in an open officeA.fellow workers are likely to spend a long time talkingB.one's personal performance can be improved easilyC.work efficiency can be ensured amid frequent interactionD.most of the workers can easily become close friends55.The last sentence of this passage suggests that the authorA.can hardly concentrate on his work at homeB.often suffers from the noise of the refrigeratorC.works more efficiently at home than in the open officeD.has nobody to talk to while working at home56.The central idea of this passage is that the open-office modelA.should be highly recommendedB.is destroying the workplaceC.is more of a blessing than a curseD.proves to be quite innovativePassage TwoThe mosquito-borne Zika virus, which has spread to 22 countries in the Americas, is terrifying to pregnant women and their partners. The virus may cause birth defects in babies whose mothers were infected during pregnancy. In Brazil more than 4,000 have been born with abnormally small heads since last October, compared with fewer than 200 in a typical year. The response of several governments has triggered a debate about abortion and birth control which may outlast the outbreak itself.It started after some governments advised women to delay getting pregnant. Colombia, which has the second-highest number of infections after Brazil, advised women to wait six to eight months. Jamaica issued a similar recommendation, even though no cases of Zika have yet been reported there. El Salvador's government suggested that women should delay pregnancy until 2018. Panama warned women from vulnerable communities not to conceive.Some women find this advice rather bossy. Others say that governments have done little to help women control their fertility. A lobby group in New York notes that rates of teenage pregnancy in Latin America are among the world's highest, as 56% of pregnancies in Latin America and the Caribbean are unintended.Rates of accidental pregnancy are high because sex education is inadequate and birth control is hard to come by. Health workers are reluctant to prescribe contraceptives to teenagers or to women who have not yet given birth. If women are to avoid pregnancy, governments must inform them better and provide more access to contraception for both men and women.Some argue that the Zika crisis should prompt countries to liberalize policies that severely restrict abortion. In El Salvador, which does not allow abortion even if a woman's life is at risk, activists are stepping up their campaign for a change in the law.A Brazilian newspaper argued that Brazil should end its ban on most abortions.Rather than calling on women to delay pregnancy, Brazil is sensibly concentrating its efforts on the mosquito responsible, which also carries dengue and yellow fever. The country had stamped out the threat by 1958 but let down its guard and allowed it to return. The health minister announced that insect repellent will be distributed to 400,000 expectant mothers. Some 310,000 health workers are teaching people how to keep mosquitoes at bay. Following WHO guidelines, Brazil advises women contemplating pregnancy on how to avoid getting bitten by mosquitoes. Women need facts, not fertility targets.57.The first paragraph is primarily concerned with.A.the harm done by the Zika virusB.abortion and birth controlC.the response of some countriesD.the origin of the Zika virus58.The rate of infections with the Zika virus is the highest in•A.ColombiaB. BrazilC. JamaicaD.
