One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not untilhe got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds.

There are different forms of colour blindness. A man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades ofgreen. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything a stranin shades of green—In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully. For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal toeach other. A green light may mean “Advance” and a red light may mean “Danger!

In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, These help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colours.There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside. Look round you and try toBirds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colours.

To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears,dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fearThere are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, c., do not exist;and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, 公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them.

For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (1 to 5) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heartdisease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be passive smokers without realising it.Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost likea tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements stit is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great open air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better off if smoking were banned altogether.Smoking can provide constant consolation. When I feelseemeverything and cigarette a get just I nervous, or worried公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题to get right. After a day's hard work, the thing I want to domost is smoking.

From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities.When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots”and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning, Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams' daily paper but with a half ounce packet of Williams' favorite tobacco, John Rhiney's Mixed. A gun dog by breed, Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially evolved for the safe carrying of hunted creatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark.Williams was a railwayman, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days”or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams' slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously undelivered.A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William's hand. Very muddy, stained and wet through, the little case still contained fifty three pounds, Williams' driving license and a few other papers. Where the dog had found it no one could tell, but found it he had and recognized it probably by the faint oily smell on the worn leather.46. How did the dog perform his duties?[A]He was delighted to show them off.[B]He did his best but was not often successful.[C]He did them quickly to get them over.[D]He had few opportunities to do them.47. What does the passage tell us about gun dogs?[A]They are the fastest runners of all dogs.[B]Their teeth are removed when they are young.[C]They can carry birds, etc. without hurting them.[D]They breed well, producing many young dogs.48. As a result of Williams' work .[A]he did not get enough sleep[B]there was an oily smell from his clothes[C]the dog grew accustomed to travelling by train [D]the dog was confused about the time of the day 49. It upset Williams' wife and family when .[A]Williams had to go to work at night[B]the dog made too much noise in the house[C]Williams made them all get up early[D]the dog would not let them see the newspaper50. Williams did not realise his loss for several days because .[A]he trusted the dog to find the wallet[B]he was unconscious all that time[C]he thought the wallet was in the house[D]he had no occasion to feel in his pocketsText 2About ten men in every hundred suffer from colour blindness in some way; women are luckier only about one in two hundred is affected in this manner. There are different forms of colour blindness.A man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully. For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal to each other. A green light may mean “Advance”and a red light may mean “Danger! Keep back!”, You can see what will happen if somebody thinks that red is green! Colour blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, These help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference betweencolours. There are also millions of “rods”but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside. Look round you and try to see what colors you can recognize.Birds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colours. As far as we know, bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs cannot see colours as well as we can.Insects can see ultra violet rays which are invisible to us, and some of them can even see X rays. The wings of a moth may seem grey and dull to us, but to insects they may appear beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see. Scientists know that there are other colours around us which insects can see but which we cannot see. Some insects have favorite colours. Mosquitoes like blue, but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects but a blue lamp will.51. Among people who suffer from colour blindness, .[A]some may see everything in shades of green[B]few can tell the difference between blue and green[C]few may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green[D]very few may think that everything in the world is in green52. When millions of rods in our eyes are at work in darkness we can see.[A]colours only[B]shapes and colours[C]shapes only[D]darkness only53. According to the passage, bats and adult owls cannot see colours.[A]because they hunt at night[B]because they cannot see light[C]because they have no cones and rods[D]because they have no cones54. According to the passage, dogs and cats.[A]as well as human beings can not see some colours[B]have fewer cones than human beings[C]have less rods than human beings[D]can see colours as well as human beings55. Which of the following is not true about insects?[A]Insects can see more colours than human beings.[B]Insects can see ultra violet rays which are invisible to men.[C]All insects have their favorite colours.[D]The world is more colorful to insects than to human beings.Text 3A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think, well authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear facedand mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two headed dragons, magic carpets, etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of madmen attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted girl friend.No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane child had ever believed that it was.56. In the writer's opinion, a fairy tale .[A]cannot be read to children without variation because they find no pleasure in it[B]will be more effective if it is adapted by parents[C]must be made easy so that children can read it on their own[D]is no longer needed in developing children's power of memory57. According to the passage, some people who are openlyagainst fairy tales argue that .[A]fairy tales are harmful to children in that they show the primitive cruelty in children[B]fairy tales are harmful to children unless they have been adapted by their parent[C]fairy tales increase a tendency to sadism in children[D]children who have read fairy stories pay little attention to the study of history and mechanics58. In the writer's opinion to rid children of fears, fairy stories should be.[A]told only once[B]repeated many times[C]told in a realistic setting[D]presented vividly59. In the writer's opinion, fairy stories .[A]have a very bad effect on children[B]have advantages in cultivating children's imagniativity[C]help children to come to terms with fears[D]harm children greatly60. According to the passage, which of the following statement is not true about fairy stories?[A]If children indulged his fantasies in fairy tales instead ofbeingtaught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics the world should be full of madman.[B]Children can often be greatly terrified when the fairy story is heard for the first time.[C]Fairy tales may beneficially direct children's aggressive, destructive and sadistic impulses.[D]Fairy tales are no more than stories about imaginary figures with magical powers which has nothing to do with external world.Part BDirections:Read the texts from an article in which five people talked about smoking. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (1 to 5) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.HadleyIf you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even thesefew people might be passive smokers without realising it.RandyTobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.SampsonThe advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements always depict handsome, clean shaven young men. They suggest it is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great openair life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.What utter nonsense!RowleyOf course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be muchbetter off if smoking were banned altogether.BerniceSmoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seem to get right. After a day's hard work, the thing I want to do most is smoking. It can be even better with a cup of coffee. It's so enjoyable and relaxing that it relieves stresses of every day life. So why bother to ban it and take the pleasure from us.Now match each of the people (1 to 5) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.公共英语三级考试模拟题及答案(1)相关内容:。

Lie detectors are commonly 26as emotion detectors, for their aim is to 27 bodily changes that contradict what a 28 says. The lie detector records changes 29 heart rate, breathing, blood pressure, and the electrical 30 of the skin. In the first part of the 31, you are electronically connected to the machine and 32 a few neutral questions (“What is your name?”etc).Your physical reactions serve 33 the standard for evaluating what comes 34. Then you are presented with a few 35 questions among the neutral ones (“When did you rob the bank?”). The idea is that if you are 36, your body will reveal the truth, even if you try to 37 it. Your heart rate and breathing will change 38 as you respond to the questions.That is the theory, but psychologists have found that lie detectors are simply not 39. Since most physical changes are the same across 40 emotions, lie detectors cannot tell41 you are feeling angry, nervous or excited. 42 people may be tense and nervous 43 the whole procedure. They may react physiologically to a certain word (“bank”) not because they robbed it, but because they recently used a bad check. In either 44, the machine will record a “lie”.On the other hand, some practiced liars can lie 45 hesitation, so the reverse mistake is also common.26.[A]fixed [B]designed [C]known [D]produced27.[A]measure [B]keep [C]maintain [D]grade28.[A]policeman [B]suspect [C]person [D]criminal29.[A]from [B]with [C]upon [D]in30.[A]display [B]activity [C]action [D]flow31.[A]test [B]research [C]operation[D]project32.[A]investigated [B]questioned [C]raised [D]asked33.[A]by [B]as [C]on [D]with34.[A]again [B]behind [C]after [D]next35.[A]critical [B]interesting [C]general [D]impossible36.[A]wrong [B]bad [C]guilty [D]mistaken37.[A]mislead [B]confuse [C]deny [D]cancel38.[A]slowly [B]naturally [C]steadily [D]abruptly39.[A]reliable [B]usable [C]reasonable [D]comprehensible40.[A]other [B]some [C]any [D]all41.[A]whether [B]when [C]where [D]why42.[A]Untrained [B]Innocent [C]Naive [D]Ignorant43.[A]before [B]about [C]after [D]at44.[A]fact [B]case [C]condition[D]chance45.[A]beyond [B]through [C]without [D]againstSection III Reading Comprehension(40 minutes)Part ADirections:Read the following three the questions on each text by choosing A,B,C or your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1Fifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which was a temple to me then. It wasn’t easy getting hired. I had to fight my way into a dime a word job. But once you were there, 1 found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life —guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there —moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor. I would have a lifetime of security if I stuck with it.Instead, I had made a decision to leave.I entered my boss’s office. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk,”I began awkwardly. “I came to the Globe when I was twenty four. Now I’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I’m resigning.”“To another paper?”he asked.I reached into my coat pocket, but didn’t say anything, not trusting myself just then.I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new media company. That the Globe had taught me in a thousand ways. That we were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly engaged in the change.“I’m glad for you,”he said, quite out of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can’t,”he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world,”he concluded. “And if it doesn’t work out, remember, your star is always high here.”Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more good byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody —even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into a billion dollar property.“I’m resigning, Bill,”I said. He listened while I gave him the story. He wasn’t looking angry or dismayed either.After a pause, he said, “Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46. From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous.[A]newspaper [B]magazine[C]temple [D]church47. If the writer stayed with the Globe,.[A]he would be able to realize his lifetime dreams[B]he would let his long cherished dreams fade away[C]he would never have to worry about his future life[D]he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions48. The writer wanted to resign because.[A]he had serious trouble with his boss[B]he got underpaid at his job for the Globe[C]he wanted to be engaged in the new media industry[D]he had found a better paid job in a publishing house49. When the writer decided to resign, the Globe was faced with.[A] a trouble with its staff members[B] a shortage of qualified reporters[C]an unfavorable business situation[D]an uncontrollable business situation50. By “I wish I were in your shoes.”(in the last paragraph), Bill Taylor meant that.[A]the writer was to fail[B]the writer was stupid[C]he would do the same if possible[D]he would reject the writer’s requestText 2Over two hundred years ago, Adam Smith introduced some ideas which brought about a world revolution. If we enjoy a high standard of living in modern society, we owe much to this Scottish economist and philosopher. If we enjoy driving in beautiful cars,wearing fashionable shoes, or flying away to distant places for exciting holidays, we should perhaps pay thanks to the man who made it all possible.What was Adam Smith’s contribution? Like so many ideas which have surprising effects, his was a simple one. He watched workers practising their craft of pin making. One man would heat the strip of metal, stretch it out, cut off an appropriate length, shape it, cool it and finally smooth and shine it. Smith drew attention to the advantages which could be gained if these various tasks were performedby different workers. Let one be responsible for preparing the metal. Another for stretching and cutting. Another for shaping. Another for finishing. He described the technique as the Division of Labour; in this way workers repeat the same actions again and again. Smith convinced the world that specialisation could solve the problem of poverty and want.What was the result? The Industrial Revolution. Productivity was greatly increased. For Britain, where the revolution started, there was a prosperity which made it the richest country in the nineteenth trains and railway lines spread out like a spider’s web across the world. British ships were used to carry the new cargoes from one corner of the world to another.The revolution is not over. It is still with us, but now it is a worldwide phenomenon. Everywhere, factories are producing large numbers of similar products, and are in continuous production. What were called mass production lines yesterday are called robotic productions today. The pace of change is increasing. And if these techniques have brought us prosperity, they have also brought us a little misery in overcrowded towns, boring jobs and, most of all, unemployment.51. We should be grateful to Adam Smith because.[A]his ideas made it possible for people to improve their lives[B]he invented a more efficient way of pin making[C]he started the industrial revolution[D]he brought to people a high standard of living52. Which of the following is true according to the passage?[A]The Division of Labour makes work more interesting.[B]Specialisation could solve the problem of unemployment.[C]Adam Smith put forward the idea of the Division of Labour.[D]Adam Smith insisted that each worker be better paid.53. From the passage we know that the Industrial Revolution.[A]led to Adam Smith’s idea of specialisation[B]was finished in the nineteenth century[C]also has its side effects in society[D]put an end to poverty in the world54. According to the passage, the Industrial Revolution is responsible for the following results except.[A]prosperity [B]crime[C]unemployment [D]overcrowdedness55. What is the best title for this passage?[A]The Theory of Division of Labour and Its Significance[B]The Industrial Revolution and Its Significance[C]The Causes of Industrial Revolution[D]Adam Smith, the Economist and PhilosopherText 3Whenever I see anyone buying a National Lottery ticket I want to stop them and ask if they know just where their money is going.The lottery money is supposed to go to charity —but it makes me angry to see some of the so called “good causes”it’s being used to support. Also, Camelot, the organizers, have made a profit of £million in five months. We hear now that a lot of that money is boosting the pay packets of the company’s bosses.For the past 10 years I’ve been helping to raise funds for a cancer research charity called Tenovus. My husband, Sandy, died from cancer 11 years ago —he was only 51. There’s been a long line of deaths in our family through cancer and it’s been devastating. I’ve also lost two sisters in law, my brother, Michael, my father in law and my father. That’s apart from several close friends.The charity is 50 years old now and raises money mainly for breast cancer research. It also runs asupport line for the families of cancer sufferers. Our local group raises money through dances, sales and coffee mornings, and all the funds go directly to cancer research. In 1993 Tenovus raised £3 million —and half that money came from sales of our own lottery tickets at supermarkets. But our income has dropped by half since the National Lottery was introduced.I’m not against people playing the National Lottery, but they should think about what they’re doing. The chances of winning the jackpot are so small; they might as well throw their money Government tells us that the proceeds are going to things like the arts and sport, but what about the National Health Service? They should give some cash to that, too. How can they justify spending ridiculous amounts of cash on so called works of art —like displays of potatoes —or buying up Winston Churchill’s papers at a cost of £12 million?So who really are the winners in the National Lottery? When I think of all that money people could be donating to cancer research,I could weep. It’s time people realized how charities across the country are suffering because of the National Lottery. It’s disheartening and so infuriating.56. The writer seems to hope that.[A]people will spend more money on the National Lottery[B]people will give more money to charity[C]most of the lottery money will go to charity[D]most of the lottery money will be used for cancer research57. The reason why the writer raises funds for cancer research is that.[A]she herself is suffering from cancer[B]the cancer is the most frightening disease[C] a number of her relatives died of cancer[D]some cancer research needs more money than other research58. In this text the writer is expressing.[A]her personal opinions[B]the opinions of the general public[C]her feelings about cancer sufferers[D]some ideas of fund raising59. The organisation “Tenovus”is.[A]run by a group of people in the writer’s town[B] a charity organisation which has some local groups[C]set up to collect money for people who lose their relatives[D]set up to assist the National Lottery60. From the text we can conclude that.[A]the writer is enthusiastically supporting the National Lottery[B]the writer has objections to the National Lottery[C]the writer believes that the lottery money should be used for cancer research [D]the writer is just expressing her feelings about collecting money for charity Part BDirections:Read the texts from a magazine article in which five business leaders talked about their predictions for high tech developments in the 21st Questions 61 to 65,match the name of each person to one of the statements (A to G)given your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Maguel de Icaza:Free software benefits people, countries and companies by giving them complete control of the software on which they depend. This is helping close the digital divide between developed and underdeveloped countries. People who previously might never have had access to this sort of technology are already leading the efforts to bring it to the developing world. Free software is thefoundation on which a fairer future and a more efficient economy is being built.Austin Hill:Welcome to the future. Your mobile phone tracks your location, your interactive TV records your viewing habits. Privacy is to the information age what environmentalism was to the industrial age. Businesses will protect themselves, and their customers, by introducing privacy promoting technologies and building better data controls into every aspect of their operation. A leading class of privacy protectors will emerge in every industry, and both they and their customers will reap the rewards of the ethical privacy brand.Ng Ede Phang:This will be the year that plain old text e mail sits up and starts talking —and talking a lot. The human voice is a powerful weapon. An e mail doesn’t tell me whether you’re happy, sad or excited, whereas Internet voice services provide all these key emotional characteristics. The human voice adds a very powerful element to business relationships that e mail just cannot match.Murray Goldman:For those of us who live on airplanes, a key decision is which electronic devices to carry on a trip. The future is in the appropriate combination of communications and computing devices. Many business travelers will require the full computing power of a personal computer, with a screen large enough to do intensive work. As a result, lightweight notebooks have been introduced to the market with innovative options such as built in DVDs, cameras and wireless capabilities.Christine Karman:We’ll see agents on portals and community websites helping people trade goods and information. Venture capitalists are shifting from dotcoms to software and hardware companies. In Europe, that shift is hard to make because we don’t have a Silicon Valley from which lots of companies are conquering the world. As a consequence, the slowly emerging Internet and software industry inEurope may not survive. If I were starting a new software company now, I’d go to California or Boston.Now match each of the persons (61 to 65)to the appropriate statement.Note:there are two extra statements.Statements61. Maguel de Icaza [A]Business travelers will set thetrend of future computer market.62. Austin Hill [B]Europe will catchup with America in the hi-tech industry.63.

Markyour answers on ANSWER SHEETl.Text 1It was fifteen past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work.Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day.Once inside the lobby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked "Smith Enter- prises" , she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no reply. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no answer. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had the interview with Mr. Smith, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardlylooked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. In the front of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others.Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone washard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. Smith, who would arrive at any moment. ThenMarie realized that the day's work in the office began justbefore Mr. Smith arrived. Later she found out that he livedin Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same trainevery morning, arriving in the office at 9 :35,so that his staff knew exactly when to start working.46.Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because _ .[A]it was her first day in a new job[B]she was a little bit late for work[C]she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong place[D]there was no answer from inside the office47.

Let' s start by discounting these confusing myths.1. All calories are created equalWhat you eat, not how much, is the main factor behind weight gain, according to research.Calories from fat pack on the pounds. The reason : during digestion, the body burns many more calories metabolizing protein and carbohydrates than it does metabolizing fat.2. Desserts are tabooCakes, pies and ice cream can sensibly be worked into a diet, the expert says. Moderation is the key. CVt down on other meals if you'll be eating out at a restaurant known for its rich sweets.Or indulge, but take only a few bites.3. Fast foods are forbiddenA plain hamburger on a bun is still a healthful choice.So is grilled chicken or a green salad with low-cal dressing. But watch out for French fries, milkshakes and batter-dipped chicken or fish.4. Fasting is the fastest dietSome studies suggest that drastically reducing calorie intake switches the body into a " starvationmode", which conserves calories and decreases your metabolic rate. The more frequently you deprive yourself of food, the better your body may get at storing calories. So,in the long run, repeated fasting may actually undermine your weight-loss efforts.5. To keep weight off, simply watch what you eat .According to experts, exercise combined with dieting ensures weight Joss better than dieting alone does. Experts also agree that sticking with regular, moderate exercise is more important that occasional vigorous workouts are. Obesity-researcher Kelly Brownell encourages patients to makea series of small physical efforts : taking the stairs insteadof the elevator and parking the car far from where you are going and walking.Most important, before getting caught up in dietary myths, let good sense shape your eating habits. Your body will thank you for it.51. It cannot be inferred from the first paragraph that_ .[A]the information about dieting is always-contradictory[B]there are too many weight-loss strategies to choose from[C]dieting is always troublesome to most people[D]people should not believe the ideas of dieting52. One of the elements to gain weight is _ .[A]the amount of the food you eat[B]over sleeping[C]laziness[D]the kind of food you eat53.Which of the following saying is true about dieting?[A] You can't eat sweets.[B] Fast foods are not good.[C] You should not neglect any meals.[D] Fasting is always helpful54.The phrase "starvation mode" means .[A] being very hungry[B]eating what you like when you are hungry[C]weight-loss efforts[D]being ready to eat55.The word "shape" in the last sentence means .[A] break [B] form[C] get rid of [D] changeText 3Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment,so it includes employees and the self-employed. Labor is one of the country's resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services required by the community. .Though the size of the workforce relies greatly on the size of the total population,there are several other aspects which also affect it. The age distribution of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work,then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an evenly spread age distribution.If the population grows rapidly from natural increase,i. e. the number of births greatly exceeds the number of deaths,then as a total population increases, the proportion in the workforce declines.Sometimes a population is described as aging,which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing veryslowly,and as people retire from the workforce, there are inadequate numbers of young people entering it to take placeof those who are leaving it. The population is top-heavy with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate. 'The age distribution of the population has several important influences on the economy. If the population isaging and there is an increase in the number of peopleretiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce,this raises the problem of the abilityof the economy to provide a reasonable level of socialservices to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared forin special homes or hotels,finance must be available forthat purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative tothe total population,then the government tax receipts are relatively low and either the govemment has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxedmore heavily.56. Labor force is composed of .[A]people who are available to work and earn income[B]self-employed people only[C]only those who are looking for an employment[D]only the employees57.The factor which does NOT influence the size ofthe worldorce is _ .[A]the size of population[B]age distribution of the population[C]national economy[D]natural increase58.The conclusion which can be drawn safely fromthe second paragraph is that _[A]a population growth from natural increase leads to a greater proportion of the work-force[B]a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforce[C]the larger the number of the aged in a population,the higher the proportion of the workforce[D]if the population has an evenly spreaded age distribution,the workforce will be lower59. When a population is said to be aging,_ .[A]more people are retiring than people entering the workforce[B]the birth rate is growing '[C]there is an oversupply of workforce[D]young people outnumber old people60.The population which is top-heavy with olderpeople poses a problem to _ .[A] the government [B] the economy[C]the workforce [D] all of the abovePart BDirections :Read the following discussion. among five people about workplace dress, for questions 61 t0 65,match the name of each person. (61 t0 65) to one of the statements (A to G ) given below. Mark you answers on. you.r ANSWER SHEETl.Marian :I have a friend who is a team leader of about 25 employees who are primarily women. She' s found a trick that works for her most of the time, but -not always. Those staff who appear in much less than professional dressing are asked if their mother and father would think appropriate a pictureof them dressed in what they believe is "OK" for work. Ifthey say "yes", she then takes a picture and asks them to send it home. Having a camera helps. Having a visualproof drives her message home.Catherine:I think it really boils down to a moral question. Is it morally "right" to use our body to move ahead in business? Or should we instead emphasize intelligence, capabilities, creative and independent thought, professionalism, and other such qualities which many, many women possess, but whom areroutinely neglected for promotions and are never glorified or emphasized in our culture. It' s okay to be a tough,competent lawyer like Ally Mcbeal, but you won't getnoticed unless you look good in really short skirts. Having a nice body is a plus, but I think that there are tons and tonsof styles of dress which can show off a nice body in a professional way.Roget:A lot of employees have finally gotten the message about inappropriate ( 不合适的 ) dress-down items such as jeans, shorts, revealing tops, etc. They are starting to wear the proper dress-down clothes. However, wearing the appropriate dress-down clothes doesn' t mean you're excused fromironing and it's certainly no license to wear dirty clothes. Wash and iron people! And guys, tuck your shirts in and put on apair of socks!Briggs :I work in a large company that has adopted the business code. They have an outline of what is acceptable and what is not. On it you find the typical, no blue jeans, no mini-skirts, no bare feet or legs and that type of thing. I guessI agree with Jessica. Anyone with common sense knows how to dress appropriately for whatever environment he or she works in. I am a casual person by nature but I tend to wear the business dress in my office. I do see some people in my building wearing casually and they look strange there.BiH:You're forgetting the most important point-it's "their" business. They are the ones who have put financial resources on the line : who have a whole bunch to lose if the business goes bad : who are providing employment for others. Therefore, they get to make the rules. If that includes a dress code,then that's their right. If you'd like a differentdress code-start your own business.Now match each of the people (61 t0 65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61.Marian [A] We shall not be moved.62.Catherine [B] Money means freedom.63.Roget [C] Photos taking are pleasant.64.Briggs [D] There are people who are so careless about dressing.65.Bill [E] Action speaks louder than words.[F]It is our society that must be blamed.[G]You should wear appropriately where you are.SectionIV Writing(40 minutes)Directions:You should write your responses to both Part A and Part B of this section on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A66.Suppose you borrowed a novel from your friend Jane.
