Eachpassage is followed by several questions.Respond to the questions usinginformation from the passage.

This term expresses the feeling of not knowing whatto do or how to do things in a new environment. We c an describe culture shock as the physical and emotional discomfort a person suffers when coming tolive in a place different from the place of origin.Often, the way that we live before is not accepted or considered as normalin the new place. Everything is different, for example, not speaking thelanguage, not knowing how to use banking machines, not knowing how to use telephones, and so forth.The symptoms of culture shock can appear at different times. Although aperson can experience real pain from culture shock, it is also an opportunity for growing and learning new perspectives. Culture shock can help peopledevelop a better understanding of themselves and stimulate personalcreativity.Culture shock has many stages. Each stage can be ongoing, or appear onlyat certain times. In the first stage, the new arrival may feel very happyabout all of the new experience. This time is called the honeymoon stage. Afterward, the second stage presents itself. A person may encounter somedifficulties in daily life. For example, communication difficulties mayoccur, such as not being understood. In this stage, there may be feelingsof impatience, anger and sadness. Transition between the old methods andthose of the new country is a difficult process and takes time to complete. The third stage is characterized by gaining some understanding of the newculture. A new feeling of pleasure and sense of humor may be experienced.A person may start to feel a psychological balance. The individual is morefamiliar with the environment and wants to belong. This starts an evaluation of the old ways versus those of the new. In the fourth stage, the personrealizes that the new culture has good and bad things to offer. This stagecan be one of double integration or triple integration, depending on thenumber of cultures that the person has to process. This integration ischaracterized by a more solid feeling of belonging. The person starts todefine himself or herself and establish goals for living. The fifth stageis the stage that is called the reentry shock. This occurs when a personreturns to the newly acquired customs are considered improper in the oldculture.Questions 56—60Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, with only one word for each blank.Introduced in 1958, culture shock is a term used to (56) __________ physical and emotional discomfort people experience when they come to or live in anew place. Although many people suffer a lot from culture shock, it is an(57) _________ for personal improvement. The five stages of culture shockmay last for a long time or show up once in a while. In the first stage,the (58) __________ stage, the new arrival might be OK with everything.Afterward, (59) ________ from old methods to the new one calls for time and energy. During the third and fourth stage, people may g ain more understanding of the new culture and possess objective views. The double or tripleintegration is (60) __________ by a feeling of belonging. The last stage,called reentry shock, refers to the feeling people have when returning totheir home country.Section B (10 marks)Questions 61-65 are based on the following passage.For some people, it would be unthinkable. But Gabe Henderson is findingfreedom in a recent decision; he canceled his MySpace a ccount. The 26 years old graduate student stopped his account after realizing that a lot of hisonline friends were really just acquaintances. “The superficial emptiness clouded the excitement I had once felt,” Henderson wrote in an article.“It seems we have lost, to some degree, the special depth that truefriendship is about.”Journalism professor Michael Bugeja, who is a strong supporter offace-to-face communication, read Henderson’ｓ column and saw it was a signof hope. Though he’s not anti-technology, Bugeja often lectures studentsabout “interpersonal intelligence”—knowing when, where, and for what purpose technology is most appropriate. He points out the students he’s seen walking across campus, holding hands with each other while talking oncell phones to someone else He’s also seen them in coffee shops, surrounded by people, but staring instead at a computer screen. “True friends,” he says, “need to learn when to stop blogging and go across campus to helpa friend.”These days, young people are more wired than ever—but they’re also getting more worried. Increasingly, they’ve had to deal with online bullies, whoare posting anything from embarrassing photos to online threats. Andincreasingly, young people also are realizing that things they post on their profiles can come back to hurt them when applying for schools or jobs.Social networking can be an “extremely effective”way to publicize eventsto large groups. It can even help build a sense of community on campus. People joined Facebook as a way to meet others. However, it has limitations. A good Internet profile could make even the most boring person seem some whatinteresting. People are also not always happy with text messages on the cell phones. Cell phones can be a quick way to say “have a good day”. But friends can also cancel a night out with a text message to avoid having to explain.“Our generation needs to get over this fear of confrontation and rejection.”Henderson says. “The focus needs to be on quality communication, in allways.” Back in his life, Henderson is enjoying spending more face-to-facetime with his friends and less with his computer. He says his decision toquit his social-networking Internet accounts was a good one. “I’m not sacrificing friends,” he says, “because if a picture, some basicinformation about their life and a Web p age is all my f riendship has become, then there was nothing to sacrifice to begin with.”Questions 61—63Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F) accordingto the passage.61. Although Henderson quit MySpace, most of his online friends are actually close friends.62. According to Bugeja, young people should know when to use technologyand when to stop using it.63. Social networking helps build asense of community but has a negativeeffect on young people’s life if it isused inappropriately.Questions 64—65Answer the following questions brieflyaccording to the passage.64. What does Henderson lose by using social networking websites likeMyspace?65. What do young people need to overcome in order to focus on quality communication?Section C (10 marks)Questions 66—70 are based on the following passage.“Five … Four … Three … Two … One … See ya! ” and Chance McGuire, twenty-five, is airborne off a 600 –foot concrete dam i n Northern California. In one second he falls 15 feet, in two seconds 60 feet, and after three seconds and 130 feet, he is flying at 66 miles an hour.McGuire is a practitioner of what he calls the king of all extreme sports.BASE—an acronym for building, antenna, span (bridge) and earth (cliffs)—jumping has one of the sporting world’s highest fatality rates: in its18-year history, forty –six participants have been killed. Yet the sporthas never been more popular, with more than a thousand jumpers in the UnitedStates, and more seeking to get into it every day. It is an activity without margin for error. If your chute malfunctions, don’t bother researching for a reserve—there isn’t time. There are no second chances.Still, the sport may be a perfect fit with the times. Americans may havemore in common with McGuire than they know or care to admit. America has embarked on a national orgy of thrill seeking and risk taking. The rise ofadventure and extreme sports such as BASE jumping, snowboarding, iceclimbing, skateboarding, and paragliding is merely the most vividmanifestation of this new national behavior.The rising popularity of extreme sports speaks of an eagerness on the partof millions of Americans to participate in activities closer to the edge,where danger, skill, and fear combine to give weekend warriors andprofessional athletes alike a sense of pushing out personal boundaries.According to American Sports Data Inc., a consulting firm, participationin so-called extreme sports is way up. Snowboarding has grown 113 percentin five years and now boasts nearly 5.5 million participants. Mountain hiking, skateboarding, scuba diving—their growth curves reveal a nation that loves to play with danger. Contrast that with activities such as baseball, touchfootball, and aerobics, all of which were in steady decline throughout the1990s.The pursuits that are becoming more popular have one thing in common: the perception that they are somehow more challenging than a game of touchfootball. “Every human being with two legs and two arms is going to wonder how fast, how strong, how enduring he or she is,” says Eric Perlman, a mountaineer and film maker specializing in extreme sports. “We a re designed to experience or die.”Questions 66—68Complete the following sentences with information given in the passage ina maximum of 4 words for each blank.66. _______ rates doesn’t stop people from getting into BASE j umping every day.67. The rise of extreme sports manifests the national behavior of _______and ________.68.

What does Eric mean by saying “We a re designed to experience or die”?A. Life with great challenges is a meaningful one.B. Life without great experiences is very common.C. People may die while doing extreme sports.D. Extreme sports are essential parts of human life.Section D (10 marks)Questions 71—75 are based on the following passage.Albert Einstein was one of the greatest thinkers the world has ever known.He formulated theories of relativity, successfully described the nature ofthe universe and came up with the most famous equation in the world. DavidBeckham is the footballer whose skills and precision have made him one ofthe most gifted sportsmen of his generation. Who is more intelligent?How Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences (MI) dares us to put thesetwo men on neighboring pedestals. Instead of regarding intelligence as asingle quantity measurable by pen-and-paper tests, Gardner, an educationprofessor at Harvard University, divides human intelligence into no fewerthan eight separate categories ranging from mathematical to musicalcompetence. (74)His ideas have provoked vigorous debate about how onedefines intelligence. Gardner’s point is that quantity measures only one capacity, the sort of mental agility that is valued in academic achievement, and that this single number does not do justice to human potential. So hehas created his own spheres of achievement. Some categories are easilyreconcilable with general perceptions about IQ. For example, “linguistic”intelligence confers a mastery of language, and is the preserve of suchpeople as poets, writers and linguists. “Logical mathematical”intelligence marks out people who take a reasoning approach to physicalthings, and seek underlying principles. Einstein is the standard –bearer of this group, which also includes philosophers. These two categories arethe main components of what we generally think of as “intelligence”. “Musical”intelligence characterizes musicians, composers and conductors. “Spatial” intelligence is about being able to picture perspective, tovisualize a world in one’s head with great accuracy. Chess players, artists and architects would rate highly in this category. Dancers, athletes andactors are lumped under the “bodily-kinesthetic” heading; these individual, like Beckham, are able to control their bodies and movementsvery carefully.Then come t wo types of “personal”intelligence-intrapersonal, the ability to gauge one’s own mood, feelings and mental states, and interpersonal,being able to gauge it in others and use the information. These two categories could be interpreted as emotional intelligence. Psychiatrists areparticularly adept at the former, while religious leaders and politiciansare seen as people who can exploit the latter.Charles Darwin is perhaps the perfect embodiment of the eighth intelligence–“naturalist”. This label describes people with a deep understanding ofthe natural world and its objects. Zoologists and botanists can countthemselves among this group.(75)These eight categories certainly reflect the fact that, in these areas, there is a spectrum of human ability ranging from the hopeless to thebrilliant. But are these really intelligences, or could these competencesbe more accurately described as gifts or talents?Questions 71—73Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.71. What are the main components of “intelligence”we generally think of?72. What kind of abilities does emotional intelligence involve?73. Which intelligences are represented by Einstein and Beckhamrespectively?Questions 74—75Translate the underlined sentences in the passage into Chinese.74. His ideas have provoked vigorous debate about how one definesintelligence.75. These eight categories certainly reflect the fact that, in these areas, there is a spectrum of human ability ranging from the hopeless to thebrilliant.Part V Translation (10 marks)Translate the following sentences into English, using the hints given inbrackets.

Nobod y cansurvive this.‖―There was abs olutely nothing I could do. The pain was horrendous and all the air was being crushed out of my lungs.‖―I couldn‘t breathe. I thought every breath would be my last.‖The machine took more than a second to roll over Mr. J epson‘s body.―It came over my head but I had my hard hat on which must have blocked most of the pressure,‖ he said.Workmates believed he would be dead but the uneven surface, foundation for a road, cushioned much of the weight of the roller and saved him.―Afterwards I tried to get straight up,‖he said. ―I was fully conscious. I was in shock but for some reason I thought, ‗If I stay down, I will die.‘‖―Luckily a laborer ran over and kept me down so that I would not do any more injury to myself.‖―The driver rushed over.

We prayed all the way to the hosp ital. To see him now is just wonderful.‖Mr. Jepson‘s employer, construction firm Laing, said the accident was still being investigated. Statements:Section C (7 points)Directions: You are going to read a magazine article about sand. Seven sentences have been removed from the article. Choose from the sentences (A-H) the one which fits each gap (64-70). There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on the Answer Sheet .Sand: as children we play on it and as adults we relax on it. It is something we complain about when it gets in our eyes on a windy beach, and praise when it is made into sand castles.But we don‘t often look at it. If we did, we would discover an account of a geological past and a history of sea life that goes back thousands and, in some cases, mil- lions of years.Sand covers not just seashores, but also ocean beds, deserts and mountains. And it is a major element in manufactured products too - concrete is largely sand, while glass is made of little else.Well, it is larger than fine dust and smaller than shingle. In fact, according to the mostgenerally accepted scheme of measurement, grains can be called sand if their diameter is greater than 0.06 of a millimetre and less than 0.6 of a millimetre. Depending on its age and origin, a particular sand can consist of tiny stones or porous grains through which water can pass. They have come from the breaking down of rocks, or from the dead bodies of sea creatures, which collect on the bottom of the oceans, or even from volcanic eruptions.If it is a dazzling white, its grains may come from nearby coral, from crystalline quartzrocks or from gypsum, like the white sand of New Mexico. On Pacific Islands, jet black sands form from volcanic minerals. Other black beaches are magnetic and are mined for iron ore. It washes rock into streams and rivers and down to the sea, leaving be- hind softermaterials. By the time it reaches the sea, the hardest rocks remain but every- thing else has been broken into tiny particles of 0.02 millimetre diameter or less. The largest pieces fall to the bottom quickly , while smaller particles float and settle only slowly in deeper water, which is why the sandy beach on the shoreline so often turns to mud further out. If the individual fragments still have sharp edges, you can be sure they were formed fairly646566676869recently. This is the case on the island of Kamoama in Hawaii, where a beach was created after a volcanic eruption in 1990. Molten lava spilled into the sea and exploded into glassy droplets.It seems that when the poet William Blake saw infinity in a grain of sand he was not far wrong. Sand is an irreplaceable industrial ingredient which has manyuses. Sand cushions our land from the force of the sea, and geologists say it often does a better job protecting our shores than the most advanced coastal technology .Section D (10 points)Directions: In this section, there is one passage followed by 5 questions. Read the passage carefully, then answer the questions in as few words as possible (not more than 10 words). Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet .Questions 71-75 are based on the following passage.Rare among American actors, Depp has made a name for himself effortlessly switching between mainst ream Hollywood movies and more ―out of the ordinary‖ projects. Talking about his choice of roles, he once said, ―With any part you play , there is a certain amount of yourself in it. There has to be, otherwise it‘s not ac t ing. It‘s lying.‖ Highlights of a r ichly diverse career include Edward Scissorhands, Sleepy Hollow and Pirates of the Caribbean .Depp dropped out of school at sixteen to concentrate on a career in music, playing the guitar (he played with more than twenty bands). However, his musical career rifled to take off, and he found himself selling pens over the phone to pay the bills. His lucky break came when makeup artist Loft Allison, to whom he was briefly married, introduced him to Nicolas Cage. Although at first they did not like each other, th ey later became good friends and Cage persuaded him to try acting. Depp signed on with Cage‘s agent, and made his feature film de but in Wes Craven‘s horror film Nightmare on Elm Street, in which the character he played was eaten by his bed. After that he had his first screen leading role in Private Resort.Depp went on to achieve teen idol status in the TV series 21 Jump Street, but after four seasons, he wanted out, with the hope of making the transition to the big screen. He starred in Cry-Baby , followed by Tim Burton‘s Edward Scissorhands, after which he went on to win considerable critical acclaim in Ed Wood, a reunion with Burton. Depp made his feature directorial debut with The Brave in 1997, a film he also co-wrote and starred in. Premiering at the Cannes Film Festival, the film also featured Marlon Brando, but earned mostly negative reviews, with most critics blaming its weak script. Sleepy Hollow teamed him with director Burton yet again, be fore he starred in Ted Demme‘s Blow, and a ppeared in the thriller From Hell, about Jack the Ripper.Off screen, his good looks and ―bad boy‖ image (he was once arrested for attacking intrusive paparazzi with a wooden plank) have earned him a lot of media attention. He was voted one of the fifty most beautiful people in the world by People magazine in 1996. He has also had his fair share of celebrity romances; when his engagement to Edward Scissorhands co-star Winona Ryder ended, he had a tattoo (one of at least eight), which said ―Winona Forever‖, altered by laser t o get rid of the last two letters of her name. His relationship with model Kate Moss also ended abruptly in 1998, when he started dating70French singer-actress Vanessa Paradis. They are now married and have two children, Lily-Rose Melody and Jack. More recent work has included Pirates of the Caribbean with Geoffrey Rush and Once Upon a Time in Mexico.Section E (10 points)Directions:In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the pas- sage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in the spaces 76-80. Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Questions 76-80 are based on the following passage.Lack of culture, or rather an excess of the wrong sort of culture, is often considered to be synonymous with disadvantage. Most commonly associated with low cultural standards are low levels of reading, and some thirteen per cent of all twenty-three-year-olds feel they have trouble with reading and writing. One way of compensating such disadvantaged young people is thought to be to provide them with the culture they lack: in particular, high quality reading material.Whereas forty to fifty per cent of young people aged sixteen to twenty rarely read a book, the majority appear to read comics. In 1991 sales of Viz, a UK comic, exceeded one million copies per issue, making it the fourth best-selling periodical in Britain. The reading of comics, however, is not restricted to young people: by 1992 it was estimated that two out of three men aged eighteen to fifty-three read Viz. The number of imitators this comic has spawned, including Zit, Gas, Brain Damage and Swiz, indicates the extent of the influence it wields.The reading of comics was traditionally regarded by the educational establishment with considerable suspicion. Whereas the received arts were always assumed to exert an improving or civilizing influence, comics were thought to ―rot children‘s brains‖, to lower educational standards and to threaten morality. They were, and are, assumed to be an inferior cultural form, their readers assumed to come from the lower social classes, to be low educational attainers and to be easily led astray.Over the past decade, perceptions of comics have shifted. Since the 1970s, the comic format has been commonly used to represent the interests of various disenfranchised groups — community groups, the unemployed, welfare recipients —who became more conscious of a climate conditioned by other contemporary movements such as civil fights, consumerism, self-help and de-institutionalization. As cultural signifiers, comics have become the subject matter of academic courses in cultural and media studies. Indee d, young people‘s cultural activities, grounded in the commercial rather than the subsidized sector, are beginning to merit the attention of the arts establishment.Summary:Part V Cloze (10 minutes, 10 points)Directions:There are 10 blanks in the passage. Use the words (phrases) given in the box to fill in the blanks, changing the form where necessary. Use only one word (phrase) in each blank.

Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.(91) An active lifestyle and a healthy, fish-rich diet are not only good for your heart, they may also help tackle the memory loss associated with old age, two leading neuroscientists said.As people live longer, finding ways of halting the decline in mental agility is becoming increasingly important, said Professor Ian Robertson, director of the Institute of Neuroscience at Trinity College Dublin.(92) ―The biggest threat to being able to function well and properly is our brains,‖ he told journalists.―There is very strong evidence, particularly in the over-50s, that the degree to which you maintain your mental faculties depends on a handful of quite simple environmental factors,‖ he said.(93) Those who remained physically fit, avoided high stress levels and enjoyed a rich and varied social life are better equipped to stay alert as they age. Mental stimulation, learning new things and simply thinking young also help.A new survey compiled for the University of Kent and the charity Age Concern showed ageism was rife in Britain where people, on average, see youth as ending at 49 and old age beginning at 65.But Robertson said such attitudes were not helpful given the number of 80-year- olds who remain。
