Decide whether each of the statements is True (T) or False (F). The second and the third passages are both followed by five questions or unfinished statements. There are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage 1There were once many sheiks（阿拉伯的酋长）who wanted to marry Queen Maura, for she was one of the most beautiful and powerful queens of Arabia. However, she did not like most of the sheiks, and soon there were only three left on her list of possible husbands.These three sheiks were all equally young and handsome, rich and strong. It was very hard for the Queen to choose the best one. One evening, she disguised herself and went to where the three sheiks were having their evening meal. She asked them to give her something to eat. The first sheik gave her some stale food left over from the day before. The second sheik gave her a tough piece of old camel’s tail.The third sheik, whose name was Hakim, gave her some of the most tender and tasty meat. After the meal, Queen Maura left the sheiks’ camp.The next day, she invited the three sheiks to dinner at her palace. She told her servants to give each sheik what he had given her the evening before. Hakim, who received a plate of tender and tasty meat, would not eat it unless the other two sheiks could share it with him.Queen Maura was now certain which of the sheiks she wanted to marry ―Hakim is the most generous of you,‖ she told them, ―so I want to marry him and he will become king.‖1. The Queen was looking for a husband. AA. TB. F2. The Queen disguised herself because she didn’t want to be recognized by the sheiks. AA. TB. F3. She gave the sheiks some stale food to eat the next evening. BA. TB. F4. Hakim wanted to eat his meal because it was very tasty. BA. TB. F5. The Queen finally decided to marry Hakim the next evening after the meal. AA. TB. FPassage 2A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man – theman who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.This attitude toward manual (体力的) labor is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously (豪华地) furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary，the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.6. From paragraph 1, we know that in America A.A. people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made manB. people can always rise to the top through their won effortsC. college professors win great respect from common workersD. people feel painful to mention their fathers as labors7. According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because B .A. servants in American are hard to getB. she takes pride in what she can do herselfC. she can hardly afford servantsD. it is easy to prepare a meal with canned food8. The underlined expression ―wait on table‖ in the second paragraph means― D ‖.A. work in a furniture shopB. keep accounts for a barC. wait to lay the tableD. serve customers in a restaurant9. The author’s attitude towards manual labor is A.A. positiveB. negativeC. humorousD. critical10. Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage? BA. A Respectable Self-made Family.B. American Attitude toward Manual Labor.C. Characteristics of American Culture.D. The Development of Manual Labor.Passage 3In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached（附予) to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it’s a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U. S. A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate（伙伴）waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.11. What is the main idea of this passage? BA. It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U. S.B. The role of time in social life over the world.C. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U. S.D. Not every country treats the concept of times as the same.12. What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? BA. A matter of work.B. A matter of life or death.C. Y ou want to see him or her.D. Y ou want to make an appointment with him or her.13. Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an appointment with your friend in the U.S.A.? BA. At 7:00 am.B. At 4:00 pm.C. At the midnight.D. At 4:00 am.14. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? DA. In the U. S. A. guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.B. There is no misunderstanding arising between people from different cultures about the concept of time.C. It may be considered foolish to make an appointment well in advance in the U. S. A..D. Promptness is valued highly in American life.15. From the passage we can safely infer that _____A_________.A. it’s a matter of life or death if you call someone in day timeB. the meaning of time differs in different parts of the worldC. it makes no difference in the U. S. whether you are early or late for a business partyD. if a person is late for a date, he needn’t make some explanationPart III Vocabulary & Structure（本大题共20小题，每小题1分，共20分）Directions: There are twenty incomplete sentences in this part.

DA B C DPart II Reading Comprehension （本大题共20小题，每小题2分，共40分）Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. Passage 1For most mere mortals (凡人)，publishing 466 books would be impossible even in dozens of lifetimes. But the remarkable Isaac Asimov had produced such an output during his 41-year book career and showed no signs of slowing down even at his old age.Many of Asimov’s science and science fiction works deal with space travel --- such as his well-known Foundation Trilogy (三部曲) --- yet despite this, Asimov would be perfectly happy never leaving his Manhattan apartment, where he lived with his wife, psychiatrist(精神病医生) --- author Janet Jeppson. “I travel in my writing to the far ends of space,” he would say, “so I don’t have to travel in real life.” Even if invited, he wouldn’t want to go.But he happily supported the space movement, serving on the NSS Board of Governors (理事会).Asimov, a workaholic who said he wanted to end his days “face down on my typewriter,” spent eight hours a day, seven days a week typing.The Russian-born son of American immigrants, Asimov (1920―1992) began writing science fiction at age 11. His first story appeared in print when he was 18. As he continued writing, he completed college, earning a Ph.D. in chemistry.Known mainly as a science fiction writer, Asimov was also an essayist, editor, journalist, biographer (传记作家) and humorist. Over the years, he'd owned dozens of awards, including the title Grandmaster of Science Fiction.1. How could Isaac Asimov be such a prolific (多产的) writer during his lifetime? DA. He began writing science fiction at age 11.B. He published his first work at age 18.C. He seldom left his Manhattan apartment.D. He spent almost all the time writing.2. Which of the following words best describes Isaac Asimov’s personality? CA. Quiet.B. Funny.C. Work-centered.D. Strange.3. How do you understand Isaac Asimov’s home life?BA. He was a hermit (隐士).B. He was a family man.C. He hated social life.D. He didn’t care about his family.4. What was the major topic in most of his books? AA. Space exploration.B. Star wars.C. Computers.D. Mysteries of the sea world.5. What do the achievements made by Isaac Asimov teach us? CA. In order to be successful, you have to be a workaholic.B. Imagination plays an important role in creative writing.C. Passion and hard work lead to success.D. It is important to publish at a young age.Passage 2Is your job doing harm to your health? If you are like a lot of American workers today, you experience a significant amount of stress in work. Stress doesn't just make you unhappy at work. It can affect your health. Doctors say people under stress have higher blood pressure, even when they are away from work. And they are at a higher risk for death from any cause than those who are more relaxed.How do you know if your job could be a risk to your health? Some danger signs include difficulty getting to sleep or difficulty waking up in the morning, forgetfulness, aches and pains for no apparent reason, a desire to eat less or tendency to eat poorly, loss of interest in activities, etc. Everyone has bad days in which they feel many of these symptoms, but if you have noticed several of them, and you have experienced them for months, you may need to do something.If you notice these signs in yourself or your beloved one, check with your doctor to eliminate other possibilities. If the cause does appear to be stress, you should try to make time for yourself away from work. Try relaxing in a warm bubble bath, listening to music, and shutting out the world for a while.1. According to the passage, ____________. AA. many American workers are under stress latelyB. almost all people know how to get rid of stressC. most people go to doctors for help with stressD. it is sure that our work is doing harm to our health2. How does stress at work affect your life? AA. It makes you unhappy at work.B. It always affects your health.C. It makes you worry all the time.D. It keeps you from working well.3. Which of the following is mentioned as a sign that your job is unhealthy? CA. Sudden aches and pains.B. Frequent bad days.C. Trouble remembering.D. Loss of time to relax.4. When should you do something about your problems? BA. When you’ve been told by others that you should do something.B. When you’ve noticed several bad symptoms over a long time.C. When you’ve let stress affect your friendships or life at work.D. When you’ve visited a doctor and he has told you to leave work.5. What can you do if you’ve noticed some of th e signs of stress? AA. See a doctor and try to relax more.B. Change to another less stressful job.C. Assume much fewer responsibilities.D. Take up a hobby like playing music.Passage 3In the United States, it is not normal to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention.The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important role. In the US guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of time is different in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. To be on time is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not on time, they may be regarded as not polite or not fully responsible. In the US no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour; it would be bad-mannered. A person who is five minutes late is expected to apologize. If he is less than five minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.1. If you telephone someone early in the day, it means _______ D ____.A. you are expected to explain whyB. you are not kind enoughC. you want to show your concern for himD. you have a very important matter to discuss2. The expression “a matter of life and death” means ________A____.A. an issue of the greatest importance and emergencyB. a very important appointmentC. a matter of whether someone should live or dieD. a strong desire to communicate3. In the US guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded ________ A____.A. if the invitation to a dinner party is not extended early enoughB. if the invitation to a dinner party is extended too far in advanceC. if the invitation to a dinner party is not extended repeatedlyD. if the invitation to a dinner party is extended to too many people4. The word “misunderstanding” can be explained as _____B_.A. failing to attend a partyB. failing to understand correctlyC. standing in one’s wayD. standing on one's own feet5. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A_A. In the US it’s normal to keep someone waiting for some time.B. In the US it’s not polite to keep someone waiting for an hour.C. In the US one is always expected to be on time.D. In the US one is expected to apologize if he is five minutes latePassage 4Ours is a big world, and full of many different people. People with many varying (不同的) points of view are often running up against others who have different opinions. Those of us who smoke are just one group of many. Recently, the activism (采取行动) of non-smokers has reminded us of the need to be considerate (体谅的) of others when we smoke in public.But, please! Enough is enough! We should like to remind non-smokers that being polite is a two-way street. If you politely request that someone not smoke you are more likely to receive an agreeable response than if you give an ugly look and say something unkind. If you speak directly to someone, you are more likely to get what you want than if you complain to the management.Many of us have been smoking for so long that we sometimes forget that others are not used to the smell of burning tobacco. We’re human, and like everyone else, we occasionally offend unknowingly. But most of us are open to friendly suggestions and comments, and quite willing to change our behavior to accommodate others.Smokers are people, too. We laugh and cry. We have hopes, dreams, and aspirations. We have children, mothers, and pets. Weeat our hamburgers (汉堡包) with everything on them and give respect to the flag at Fourth of July picnics. We hope you'll remember that the next time a smoker light up in public.1. The purpose of the first paragraph is ______. DA. to inform the reader of the bigness of the worldB. to declare that the author belongs to the group of smokersC. to tell non-smokers that smokers will be considerateD. to reveal the author’s reason for writing this essay2. What does the second sentence in the second paragraph imply? CA. We should go on two different roads.B. We have different ways of doing things.C. Being polite to each other is a mutual thing.D. We can smoke and sometimes we will not smoke.3. According to the author, how can you get an agreeable response from smokers if you don’t feel like someone smoking beside you? DA. Complain to his boss.B. Tell him directly that you hate smokers.C. Keep from complaining but do something to suggest your feelings.D. Tell him politely that you are not used to smoke.4. According to the author, why do some smokers smoke in public? BA. Because they cannot stop from smoking.B. Because they forget that others do not like the smell cigarettes.C. Because they are humans and they cannot avoid offending people.D. Because there is no law against it.5. How does the author try to persuade the reader? BA. He uses reasons.B. He appeals to people’s feelings.C. He gives examples in his argument.D. He simply states his opinion.Part III Cloze（本大题共20小题，每小题1分，共20分）Directions: In this section there is a passage with 20 blanks.

This, I think, is a good practice.For one thing, it lightens the burden on public transportation, which is already too crowded. For another, it saves time. As public transportation is overburdened, it often takes a lot of waiting to get on a bus and to transfer from one bus line to another. In addition, cycling has no need for fuel and therefore does not in the least pollute the air. It benefits not only the rider himself but also the residents of the whole community. What’s more, cycling is good for people’s health. Nowadays, with the automation of factories and offices, work, to many people, means button-pressing. What better exercise could such workers have than cycling to and from work?In a word, cycling to work is good for the rider and for our environment.。
