S. government passed a law, which said that theland of the American Indians could never be takenfrom them without their.agreem en t. :O. n e hundred. years later,however, the Indians only had a very small part of the land that originally belonged to them. How did this great injustice occur?After 1812 white settlers began to move west across North America At first, the set-tlers and the Indians lived in peace. However; the number of settlers increased greatly ev- ery year. and slowly the Indians began to see the white settlers as a danger to their surmv-al. To feed themselves, the settlers killed more and more wild animals. The Indians, who depended on these animals for food, had to struggle against starvatiorx The settlers also brought with them many diseases which were common in white society, but which were new for'the Indians. Great numbers of Indians became sick and died. Between 1843 and 1854 the Indian population in one area of the country went down from 100, 000 t0 30,000.More land was needed for the increasing number of white settlers. In Washington, the old respect for the rights of the Indians disappeared. The old promises to the Indians were broken; the federal governm ent began to move groups of Indians from their original home-lands' to other poorer parts of the country. Some Indians reacted angrily and violently to this treatment. They began to attack white settlers, and the Indian Wars began. For thirty years, until the late 1880s, different groups of Indians fought against the injustices of the white man* They had a few famous successes~ but the result of the struggle was never in doubt. There were too many white soldiers, and they' were too powerful. Many Indians were killed; the survivors were moved from their homelands to different areas of the coun-try. It was a terrible chapter in the history of a country that promised freedom and equality to everyone.16. It is implied in the passage that _ DA. the Indians had many great successes in the Indian WarsB. the Indians had no doubt that they would win the WarsC. the result of the struggle was that the In'dians stayed where they were beforeD. it was quite obvious that the Indians were too weak to win the struggle17.

He believes that the government cannot be criticized for its treatment-of the In- dians.C. He believes that the government treated the Indians unjustly.D. He believes that the government's unfair treatment against the Indians was not on purpose.19. Why did American Indians begin to see the white settlers as a danger to them?（A）A.

They made a series of experiments and observations to determine on which side women hold their babies and why.First they determined that modern mothers tend to hold their baby on the left. Of 155 right-handed mothers, 83% held the baby on the left. And out of 32 left-handed mothers, 78% held the baby on the left. As a control, women were watched emerging from super- markets carrying baby-sized packages; the bundles were held with no side preference (偏爱).A large number of mothers who brought their premature babies to a follow-up clinic were seen to hold their babies against their right side. So, 155 mothers who had been sepa- rated from their babies for 24 hours right after birth were observed for holding response. The experimenters presented the baby directly to the mid-line of the mother's body, and noted that 53% placed the baby on the left and 47% on the right. The author suggests "the time immediately after birth is a critical period when the stimulus of holding the baby releases a certain maternal response. " That is to say, she senses that the baby is better off on her left. Left-handed holding enables the baby to hear the heartbeat, a sound associated with the security of the womb. In order to discover whether hearing the heartbeat has a beneficial effect on the baby, the sound of a human heartbeat was played t0 102 babies in a nursery for 4 days. A control group of babies was not exposed to heartbeats. The babies in the experiment group gained more weight and cried far less than the babies in the control group.21. Who did not show side preference for holding babies?(B)A. The mothers who had divorced from their husbands.B. The mothers who had been separated from their babies for 24 hours after birth.C. The mothers whose babies had been placed in control groups.D. The mothers who had lived a luxurious life.22. According to the passage, the time right after birth is importantbecause_ DA. the mother can hear the baby's heartbeat in that periodB the mother is ready at all times to satisfy the baby's needsC. the baby can hear the mother's heartbeatD. the mother has an instinctive tendency to hold the baby on the left23. Why did the scientists watch women coming out of supermarkets?(A)A. To see if they carried parcels and babies differently.B. To see how they carried their babies.C. To determine what they had bought in the supermarkets.D. To determine whether they were right-handed or left-handed.24. In the experiment mentioned in the last paragraph, 102 babies were_ CA. not exposed to heartbeatsB. placed-in a control groupC. exposed to heartbeatsD. looked after by their mothers25. Who tend to hold their babies on the left according to the experiment?(C)A Left-handed women.B. Right-handed womenC. Both right-handed mothers and left-handed mothers.D. Women who hold parcels on the left.Passage ThreeSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between "teaching" and "1earningn, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which onl'y children can do for themselves. Teachingchildren to rea.d is not passing reading on to them 'It is dertairily not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught di-rectly and schools shoulcl stop trying to do the impossible. " Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They' differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for t'eaching themselves to readl Teaching is also a public activity: it can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If roles of teacher and learner are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest (探索 ) for knowledge? Smith has one princi- pal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy. which means making. reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children. "When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are9 and when both teachers and learners fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an envi- ronment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.26. According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a dif'ficult taskwhen_ AA. children become highly motivatedB. roles of teacher and learner are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children's experience27. The teaching of reading will be successful if (B) .A. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable28. The word " scrutiny " ( Line 3, Paragraph 3 ) most probably means_ BA inquiry B. observation C. control D. suspicion29. The main idea of the passage is that_ CA. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possible .C. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated than generally believed30. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph isthat_ DA. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about readingPassage FourPeople living on parts of the south coast of England face a serious problem. In1993,the owners of a large hotel and of several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gar- dens had disappearedovernight. The sea had eaten into the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were,studying the_problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion (侵蚀) of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has become more serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people, forecasting the year in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their ernment surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say. until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eaten as limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in one of the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turn out to be a knockdown home.31. The experts' study on the problem of erosion can_ DA. lead to its eventual solutionB. provide an effective way to slow it downC. help to prevent it from worseningD. warn people whose homes are in danger32. What is the cause of the problem that people living on parts of the south coast of England face?(D)A. The disappearance of hotels, houses and gardens.B. The experts' lack of knowledge.C. The rising of the sea level.D. The washing-away of limestone cliffs.33. It is not feasible to build sea defenses to protect against erosionbecause_ AA. it is too costly and will endanger neighboring areasB. the government is too slow in taking actionC. they will be easily knocked down by waves and currentsD. house agents along the coast do not support the idea34. The erosion of the white cliffs in the south of England _ BA. will soon become a problem for people living in central EnglandB. has now become a threat to the local residentsC. is quickly changing the map of EnglandD. can be stopped if proper measures are taken35. According to the author, when buying a house along the south coast of England, people should_ AA. be aware of the potential danger involvedB. guard against being cheated by the house agentC. take the quality of the house into considerationD. examine the house carefully before making a decisionPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this section.

At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, Mostly married. (80) The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago - so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than gibing them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. Ti probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.11.

A.This sort of thing is quite mon.B.It makes no difference to a child.C.It’s nothing to be surprised at .D.It may hurt the girl’s feelings.22.In the second paragraph “the father…had his way” means ________.A.the father went out to work B.the father made his own decision C.the father left his daughter alone D.the father did what he wanted 23.Which of the following sentences may best reflect the girl’s attitude toward her father? A.“A man came to the door this morning.” B.“He was a nice man, much nicer than Robert.” C.“After all, that leaves you with nine.” D.“I gave him four of your books.” 24.What does the writer think of the father? A.He was very strict with his daughter.B.He was too proud to listen to his daughter.C.As a child psychologist, he didn’t understand his daughter’s psychology very well.D.As a father, he showed little care for his daughter.25.This short story tells us that ________.A.failure is the mother of success B.what you do not wish done to yourself, do not doto others C.we should put others first and ourselves last D.everything is hard in the beginning Passage 2 What is e_actly a lie? Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For e_le, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you, you say: I wi sh I could help you but I’m short of money myself.In fact, you are not short of money, but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you don’t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this.Is this really a lie? A scientific study of lying shows women are better liars than men, particularlywhen telling a “white lie” such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks terrible.However, this is only one side of the story.Other researches show that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling.This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or gain in some way.Research has also been done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie.It has been found that if they are sitting down at the same time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual.To the trained observer they are saying I wish I were somewhere else now.26.This passage tells us that ________.A.telling lies is often necessary in order to avoid being defeated B.telling lies is often bad because people ought not to be dishonest C.telling lies is sometimes necessary in order not to hurt someone else’s feelings D.telling lies is not bad at all in most cases 27.In Paragraph 2, the sentence “Women are better liars than men do.” probably mea ns ________.A.women are better at telling lies than men B.women liars are better accepted than men C.women have a better intention when telling lies D.women tell fewer lies than men do 28.A “white lie” means ________.A.a lie that is pletely unbelievable B.a lie that is told with a good will C.a lie that is always believable D.a lie that often has an evil purpose 29.Politicians and businessmen are supposed to be skilled at telling the kind of lies ________.A.from which they may gain some advantages B.that seems to be believable C.that women are most likely to believe D.with which they can have better relationship with others 30.It can be concluded from the passage that ________.A.there is a simple way of finding out if someone is lying B.from some ways people behave we can know they are lying C.certain emotions are proof of lying D.in some situations women are most likely to think businessmen are dishonest Passage 3 Life reallyshould be one long journey of joy for children born with a world of wealth at their feet.Internationally famous child doctor Robert Colesis the world’s top e_pert on the influence of money on children.He has written a well-known book on the subject, “The Privileged Ones”, and his resea rch shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little.“Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich,” says the 33-year-old doctor, “such as better health, education and future work prospects.But the most important is the quality of family life.Money can’t buy love.” It can buy a lot of other things, however, and that’s where the trouble starts.Rich kids have so much to choose from that they often bee confused.Over-indulgence by their parents can make them spoilt.They tend to travel more than other children, from home to home and country to country, which causes feelings of restlessness.“But privileged children do have a better senseof their positions in the world,” adds Mr.Coles, “and they are more self-assured.” Therich children inherit the property from their parents and enjoy a high ine.So money will never be one of their problems.“However they will have a sense of isolation”, warns Dr Coles, “and they could suffer from the hardship of not being able to deal with the everyday world because they will never really be given the chance.Everything they have achieved is because of an accident of birth.There can be no tremendous inner satisfaction about that.” Today’s wealthy parents perhapsrealize their riches can be more of a heavy load than a happiness to their children.So the first thing for them to consider is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.31.In his book “The Privileged Ones,” Dr Coles implies that _______.A.there are fewer problems in the rich family than the poor family B.rich children live a life of separation from the world C.rich children usually enjoy more love than poor children D.the quality of rich children’s family life may not be high 32.In the doctor’s view, _______.A.there are both advantages and disadvantages to being rich B.traveling a lot will be beneficial to children C.rich children usually have little confidence in themselves D.rich kids are often short of money because of their life of lu_ury 33.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A.Rich children usually lead a life of happiness.B.Rich children have earned what they have.C.Rich children tend to feel isolated.D.Rich children are hardly given too many material things.34.According to the author of the passage, _______.A.life is really a long journey of joy for rich children B.the rich children feel greatly satisfied with the property they inherit from their parents C.it is most important for wealth parents to make sure that their families are rich in love as well as in money D.today all the wealthy parents are sure of the problems their money can bring 35.It seems that the author of the passage _______what Dr.Coles says in the book “The Privileged Ones”.A.knows little about B.is doubtful about C.is opposed to D.agrees with Passage 4 Very old people do raise moral problems for almost everyone who es into contact with them.Their values —this can’t be repea ted too often — are not necessarily our values.Physical fort, cleanness and order are not necessarily the most important things.The social services from time to time find themselves faced with a flat with decaying(腐烂) food covered by small worms, and an old person lying alone on bed, taking no notice of the worms.But is it interfering with personal freedom to insist that they go to live with some of their relatives so that they might be taken better care of? Some social workers, the ones who clear up the worms, think we are in danger of carrying this concept of personal freedom to the point where serious risks are being taken with the health and safety of the old.Indeed the old can be easily hurt or harmed.The body is like a car.It needs more mechanical maintenance as it gets older.You can carry this parison right through to the provision of spare parts.But never forget that such operations are painful e_periences, however good the results.And at what point should you cease to treat theold body? Is it morally right to try to push off death by continuing the development of drugs to e_cite the forgetful old mind and to make the old body active, knowing that it is designed to die? You cannot ask doctors or scientists to decide, because so long asthey can see the technical opportunities, they willfeel bound to give them a try, on the principle that while there’s life, there’s hope.When you talk to the old people, however, you are forced to the conclusion that whether age is happy or unpleasant depends less on money or on health than it does on your ability to have fun.36.It is implied in Paragraph 1 that ______.A.very old people enjoy living with their relatives B.social services have nothing to do with very old people C.very old people would like to live alone so that they can have more personal freedom D.very old people are able to keep their rooms very clean 37.Some social workers think that _______.A.health and safety are more important than personal freedom B.personal freedom is more important than health and safety C.old people should keep their rooms clean D.one should not take risks dealing with old people 38.In the author’s opinion, ______.A.the human body can’t be pared to a car B.the older a person is, the more care he needs C.too much emphasis has been put on old people’s values D.it is easy to provide spare parts for old people 39.The word “it” in the last paragraph refers to_______.A.the conclusion you have e to B.whether age is happy or unpleasant C.your talk to the old people D.one’s money or one’s health 40.The author thinks that _______.A.medical decisions for old people should be left to the doctors B.old people can enjoy a happy life only if they are very rich C.the opinion that we should try every meanspossible to save old people is doubtful D.it is always morally right to treat old people and push off death Part III Cloze (10 points) Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage.For

them on the Translation Paper.Not all memories are sweet.Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad e_periences.Violence and traffic accidents can leave peoplewith terrible physical and emotional scars.Often they relive these e_periences innightmares(噩梦).(51)Now American researchers think they are closeto developing a pill, which will help people forgetbad memories.The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening e_perience.They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase(抹去), the effect of painful memories.In November, e_perts tested a drug on people inthe US and France.The drug stops the body releasing chemicals thatfi_ memories in the brain.(52) So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument.Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.(53)Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers’ troubling memories after war.They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories.“Some memories can ruin people’s lives.They e back to you when you don’t want to have them in a daydream or nightmare.They usually e with very painful emotions.” said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard MedicalSchool.“This could relieve a lot of that suffering.” (54)But those who are against the research say that it is very dangerous to change memories because memories give us our identity.They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past.(55)“All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are.I’m not sure we want to wipe those memorie s out,” said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.Part V Writing (30 points) For

Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice.Passage1The biggest safety threat facing airlines today may not be a terrorist with a gun,but the man with the portable computer in business class.In the last15years,pilots have reported well over100incidents that could have been caused by electromagnetic interference.The source of this interference remains unconfirmed,but increasingly,experts are pointing the blame at portable electronic devices such as portable computers,radio and cassette players and mobile telephones. RTCA,an organization which advises the aviation(航空)industry,has recommended that all airlines ban such devices from being used during“critical”stages of flight,particularly takeoff and landing.Some experts have gone further,calling for a total ban during all flights.Currently,rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines.And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during takeoff and landing,most are reluctant to enforce a total ban,given that many passengers want to work during flights.The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircraft’s computers. Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication.But,because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory,they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not.The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio system in order to damage navigation equipment.As worrying,though,is the passenger who can’t hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music’s too loud.11.The passage is mainly about_______.A.a new regulation for all airlinesB.the defects of electronic devicesC.a possible cause of aircraft crashesD.effective safety measures for air flight12.What is said about the over100aircraft incidents in the past15years?A.They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.B.They may have taken place during takeoff and landing.C.They were proved to have been caused by the passengers’portable computers.D.They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.13.Few airlines want to impose a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because _______.A.they don’t believe there is such a danger as radio interferenceB.the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be provedC.most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette playersD.they have other effective safety measures to fall back on14.Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on an airplane’s computers?A.Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplane.B.Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with.C.Because research scientists have not been able to produce the same effects in labs.D.Because experts lack adequate equipment to do such research.15.It can be inferred from the passage that the author_______.A.is in favor of prohibiting passengers’use of electronic devices completelyB.has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interferenceC.hasn’t formed his own opinion on this problemD.regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flightPassage2Even plants can run a fever,especially when they’re under attack by insects or disease.But unlike humans,plants can have their temperature taken from3,000feet away straight up.A decade ago,adapting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites,physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress.The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field,which invariably includes plants that don’t have pest problems.Even better,Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye.Mounted on a plane flown at3,000feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running“fevers”.Farmers could then spot-spray, using50to70percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley’s company closed down in1984,after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find.But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce,and refinements in infrared scanning,Paley hopes to get back into operation.Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works.“This technique can be used on75percent of agricultural land in the United States,”says George,expert of Texas A&M.Ray Jackson,who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture,thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain10years ago.16.Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are_______.A.sprayed with pesticidesB.facing an infrared scannerC.in poor physical conditionD.exposed to excessive sun rays17.In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely,we can use infrared scanning to_______.A.estimate the damage to the cropsB.measure the size of the affected areaC.draw a color-coded mapD.locate the problem area18.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by_______.A.resorting to spot-sprayingB.consulting infrared scanning expertsC.transforming poisoned rainD.detecting crop problems at an early stage19.The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties,such as_______.A.the lack of official supportB.its high costC.the lack of financial backingD.its failure to help increase production20.Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of_______.A.the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produceB.growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsC.the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD.full support from agricultural expertsPassage3The human brain contains10thousand million cells and each of these may have a thousand connections.Such enormous numbers used to discourage us and cause us to dismiss the possibility of making a machine with humanlike ability,but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace,we can be less sure.Quite soon,in only10or20years perhaps,we will be able to assemble a machine as complex as the human brain,and if we can we will.It may then take us a long time to render it intelligent by loading in the right software or by altering the architecture but that too will happen.I think it certain that in decades,not centuries,machines of silicon(硅)will arise first to rival and then exceed their human ancestors.Once they exceed us,they will be capable of their own design.In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves.Silicon will have ended carbon’s long control.And we will no longer be able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe.As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines through economies of scale,we may use them to expand our frontiers,first on earth through their ability to withstand environments,harmful to ourselves.Thus,deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined.Further ahead,by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide,the construction of a vast,man-created world in space,home to thousands or millions of people,will be within our power.21.In what way can we make a machine intelligent?A.By making it work in such environments as deserts,oceans or space.B.By working hard for10or20years.C.By either properly programming it or changing its structure.D.By reproducing it.22.What does the writer think about machines with human-like ability?A.He believes they will be useful to human beings.B.He believes that they will control us in the future.C.He is not quite sure in what way they may influence us.D.He doesn’t consider the construction of such machines possible.23.The word carbon(para.2)stands for“_______”.A.intelligent robotsB.a chemical elementC.an organic substanceD.human beings24.A robot can be used to expand our frontiers when_______.A.its intelligence and cost are beyond questionB.it is able to bear the rough environmentC.it is made as complex as the human brainD.its architecture is different from that of the present ones25.It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A.after the installation of a great number of cells and connections,robots will be capable of self-reproductionB.with the rapid development of technology,people have come to realize the possibility of making a machine with human-like abilityC.once we make a machine as complex as the human brain,it will possess intelligenceD.robots will have control of the vast,man-made world in spacePassage4Cancer is feared by everyone.And this fear is reaching epidemic proportions.Not the disease itself－there is no such thing as a cancer epidemic.Except for lung cancer,mostly caused by cigarette smoking,the incidence rates are leveling off,and in the case of some kinds of cancer are decreasing.But the fear of cancer is catching,and the country stands at risk of an anxiety.The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物).The ordinary,more or less scientific statement that something between80and90percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.”This is not at all the meaning.The80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world－for example,the high proportion of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East,stomach cancer in Japan,breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer inAmerica.These data indicate there may be special and specific environmental influences,largely based on personal life-style,that determine the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities－but that is all the data suggest.The overall incidence of cancer,counting up all the cases,is probable roughly the same everywhere.26.Which of the following is closest to meaning to the phrase“leveling off”?A.Became very popular.B.Reached its lowest level in popularity.C.Stopped being popular.D.Stopped increasing its popularity.27.According to the passage,the incidence of cancer is generally believed_______.A.to be based on inactive life styleB.to be due to anxietyC.to result from environmental influencesD.to be caused by heavy smoking28.It can be inferred from the passage that the writer’s opinion about the relationship between cancer and environment is_______.A.positiveB.negativeC.neutralD.approving29.According to the passage,the writer seems to feel that_______.A.cancer risk is on the riseB.the whole earth resembles a huge carcinogenC.the risk of catching cancer is not so great as most people conceiveD.cancer can be cured sooner or later30.Which of the following would be the best TITLE for the passage?A.Cancer and EnvironmentB.The Fear Caused by CancersC.Data on Cancer IncidenceD.Cancer and its InvestigationPart III Vocabulary and Structure(20minutes,20points)Directions:There are20incomplete sentences in this section.For each

Following the rules…planning your next move . . . acting as a team member…these are all “game” ideas that you will c ome across throughout your life.Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating (合作) .Many children’s games have a practical side Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones. Which sharpens the hand-eye coordination（协调）needed in hunting.Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition. People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.Sports are also an event that unites people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it—some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.16. Through playing hide-and-seek, children are expected to learn to ________. A. be a team leader B. obey the basic rules C. act asa grown-up D. predict possible danger17. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 most probably means that games can________.A. describe life in an exciting wayB. turn real-life experiences into a playC. make learning life skills more interestingD. change peop le’s views of sporting events18.

It helps the country out of natural disasters. D. It earns the winners fame and fortune. 19. Iribarne’s goal of forming the foundation is to _______. A. bring fun to poor kids . B. provide soccer balls for children C. give poor kids a chance for a better life[ks5u. com.

C．People are advised to play games for fun. D．Sports increase a country’s competitiveness.Passage ThreeIn what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone awry. Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.21.What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To look back to the early days of computers.B. To explain what technical problems may occur with computers?C. To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.D. To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers.22. According to the passage, initial concerns about computers were that they might_____A. lead us into the post-war eraB. be quite widespreadC. take controlD. take over routine tasks23. The passage recommends those dealing with computers to_____A. be reasonably skeptical abort themB. check all their answersC. substitute them for basic thinkingD. use them for business purposes only24.An “internal computer” is_____A. a computer uses exclusively by one company for its own problemsB. a person’s store of knowledge and the ability to process itC. the most up-to-date in-house computer a company can buyD. a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable25.The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is_____A. challengingB. psychologicalC. dramaticD. malfunctioningPassage FourSeveral recent studies have found that being randomly (随机地) assigned to a roommate of another race can lead to increased tolerance but also to a greater likelihood (可能性)of conflict.Recent reports found that lodging with a student of a different race may decrease prejudice and compel students to engage in more ethnically diverse friendships.An Ohio State University study also found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success throughout their college careers. Researchers believe this may be caused by social pressure.In a New York Times article, Sam Boakye – the only black student on his freshman year floor -said that "if you're surrounded by whites, you have something to prove."Researchers also observed problems resulting from pairing interracial students in residences.According to two recent studies, randomly assigned roommates of different races are more likely to experience conflicts so strained thatone roommate will move out.An Indiana University study found that interracial roommates were three times as likely as two white roommates to no longer live together by the end of the semester.Grace Kao, a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings. "This may be the first time that some of these students have interacted, and lived, with someone of a different race," she said.At Penn, students are not asked to indicate race when applying for housing."One of the great things about freshman housing is that, with some exceptions, the process throws you together randomly," said Undergraduate Assembly chairman Alec Webley. "This is the definition of integration.""I've experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students that have both broken down stereotypes and reinforced stereotypes," said one Penn resident advisor (RA). The RA of two years added that while some conflicts "provided more multicultural acceptance and melding (融合)," there were also "jarring cultural confrontations."The RA said that these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race.Kao said she cautions against forming any generalizations based on any one of the studies, noting that more background characteristics ofthe students need to be studied and explained.26. What can we learn from some recent studies?A)C onflicts between students of different races are unavoidable.B)S tudents of different races are prejudiced against each other.C)I nterracial lodging does more harm than good.D)I nterracial lodging may have diverse outcomes.27. What does Sam Boakye's remark mean?A)W hite students tend to look down upon their black peers.B)B lack students can compete with their white peers academically.C)B lack students feel somewhat embarrassed among white peersduring the freshman year.D)Being surrounded by white peers motivates a black student towork harder to succeed.28. What does the Indiana University study show?A)Interracial roommates are more likely to fall out.B)F ew white students like sharing a room with a black peer.C)R oommates of different races just don't get along.D)A ssigning students' lodging randomly is not a good policy.29. What does Alec Webley consider to be the "definition of integration"?A)Students of different races are required to share a room.B)I nterracial lodging is arranged by the school for freshmen.C)L odging is assigned to students of different races withoutexception.D)The school randomly assigns roommates without regard to race.30. What does Grace Kao say about interracial lodging?A. It is unscientific to make generalizations about it without further study.B. Schools should be cautious when making decisions about student lodging.C. Students' racial background should be considered before lodging is assigned.D. Experienced resident advisors should be assigned to handle the problems.Part Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points) Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section .For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B , C and D .Choose the one that best completes the sentence.

I asked the money collector, “How much 56 is h e?”She told me he had meant to put $15 of petrol in h is car but he had been looking at the wrong gauge and ha d put in 15 57, which came to just over $20. That is an easy mistak58both gauges run fast.Something made me think of you and what you did that night at the caféin Bondi. I handed the man $6.

But only children have their problems, too. For one thing, they have no privacy. Parents always feel entitled to know everything that’s going on in an only child’s life. Also, only children never have the opportunity to put the blame on a brother or sister for something they’ve done wrong. Third, only children miss the companionship of brothers and sisters. They can be lonely, and they may have trouble making friends later in life because they have never learned to get along with a brother or sister.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic Protection of the Environment 。

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 center.Passage 1How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he willever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child — things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.21. According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that _______.A. life for a child is comparatively easyB. a child is always loved whatever he doesC. if much is given to a child, he must do something in returnD. only children are interested in life22. After a child grows up, he_____.A. will have little time playingB. has to be successful in finding a jobC. can still ask for help in time of troubleD. should be able to take care of himself23. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. People are often satisfied with their life.B. Life is less interesting for old people.C. Adults are freer to do what they want to do.D. Adults should no longer rely on others.24. The main idea of the passage is that ______.A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some painsB. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hardC. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s lifeD. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life25. The paragraph following the passage will most probably discuss ______.A. examples of successful young menB. how to build up one’s position in societyC. joys and pains of old peopleD. what to do when one has problems in lifePassage 2Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different from it. And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted (曲解) one.Here is a great argument in favor of foreign travel and learning foreign languages. It is only by traveling in, or living in a county and getting to know its inhabitants and their language that one can find out what a country and its people are really like. And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be true from the second-hand information gathered from other sources! How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different people from ourselves are not very different after all!Differences between peoples do of course, exist and, one hopes, will always continue to do so. The world will be a dull place indeed when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike, andsome people might say that we are rapidly approaching this state of affairs. With the much greater rapidity and ease of travel, there might seem to be some truth in this at least as far as Europe is concerned. However this may be, at least the greater ease of travel today has revealed to more people than ever before that the Englishman or Frenchman or German is not some different kind of animal from themselves.26. Every country criticizes ways of life in other countries because they are _______.A. distortedB. normalC. similar to each otherD. different from its own27. One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will ______.A. find out what its people are likeB. argue in favor of this country and the languageC. know the country and its people betterD. like its inhabitants and their language28. The knowledge one gains by traveling in a foreign county is often _______.A. from second-hand informationB. gathered from other sources than from its inhabitantsC. gained from the arguments about the countryD. different from what one had before the travel29. Differences between peoples ________.A. will gradually disappear because of ease of travelB. do exist even though different nationalities behave exactly alikeC. will always continue to exist and the world will be a dull placeD. will not exist as one hopes30. The underlined word “However” most probably means _________.A. somewhatB. by whatever meansC. anyhowD. no matter whatPassage 3We arranged that Kissinger would fly to Vietnam for talks early in July and then stop in Pakistan on the way back. There he would develop a stomachache that would require him to stay in bed and not be seen by the press. Then, with President Yahya’s coope ration he would be taken to an airport where a Pakistan plane would fly him over the mountains to China.Kissinger’s trip was given the code(密码) name Polo after Marco Polo, another Western traveler who made history by journeying to China. Everything went without a hitch. His slight illness in Islamabad received only minor attention from reporters covering him. They accepted the story that he would be confined to bed for at least a couple of days and began making arrangements for their own entertainment.Because of the need for complete secrecy and the lack of any direct communication facilities between Beijing and Washington, I knew that we would have no word from Kissinger while he was in China. Even after he had returned to Pakistan it would still be important to maintain secrecy. So before Kissinger left, we agreed on a single code word —Eureka －which he would use if his mission were successful.On July 11, Al Haig, who knew our code word, phoned me to say that a cable from Kissinger had arrived.“What’s the message?” I asked.“Eureka,” he replied.31. Kissinger stopped in Pakistan because ______.A. he happened to have a stomachacheB. he needed a rest after a long journeyC. he had a secret mission to perform thereD. he did not want to be seen by the press32. The reporters in Islamabad believed that ______.A. Kissinger was not feeling wellB. Kissinger had just come back from VietnamC. Kissinger had put off leaving for ChinaD. Kissinger was preparing to entertain them33. The statement “everything went without a hitch” (Para.2) most probably means that ______.A. nothing was easy with the missionB. the plans were carried out with great difficultyC. things went smoothlyD. there was no possibility of success34. There was no news from Kissinger while he was in Beijing, chiefly because _______.A. his trip had to be kept secretB. President Yahya did not go with KissingerC. communication between Beijing and Islamabad was difficultD. the negotiation(谈判) was not successful35. The passage implies that Kissinger’s message “Eureka” was sent _______.A. when the negotiation started in BeijingB. as soon as he arrived in WashingtonC. when he flew to Vietnam on July 11D. when the negotiation was completed in Beijing Passage 4No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the U.S.A. There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 144 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world. Distinguished dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over thecountry. However the Post and the Times are not national newspapers in the sense that The times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these present detailed accounts of national and international news, but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensational”, which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events. But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with television.Just as American newspapers give way to all tastes, so do they also try and apply to readers for all political persuasions. A few newspapers support extremist (过激分子) groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers attempt to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are essentially moderate. Many of these papers print columns by well-known journalists of different political and social views in order to present a balanced picture.As in other democratic countries American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once bravely uncovered political scandals (丑闻) or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair. The newspapers drew the attention of the public to the fears of the Vietnam War.36. There are fewer national newspapers in ______.A. Britain than in the U.S.A.B. France than in BritainC. the U.S.A. than in Britain or FranceD. France than in the U.S.A. or Britain37. Most American newspapers try to entertain their readers because ______.A. they have to keep up a good relation with themB. they have to compete with televisionC. they have to write about crime, sex and rumorD. they have to give factual news in an interesting way38. Many American newspapers attract readers of different political tendency by ______.A. supporting extremist groups from time to timeB. inviting middle-of-the-road Americans to write articles for themC. avoiding carrying articles about extremistsD. printing articles representing different political viewpoints39. In this passage the underlined word “press” (Para.2) means ______.A. a machine for printingB. the business of printingC. great forceD. newspapers40. The passage is mainly about ______.A. the characteristics of American newspapersB. the development of American newspapersC. the functions of American newspapersD. the merits and shortcomings of American newspapersPart III Cloze (10 points)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each blanks there are four choicesmarked A, B, C and D, you should choose one that best fits into the passage. Then mark the answer by blanking the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a pencil.If you feel you have a closer relationship with your grandmother on your mother’s side than on you father’s side, it is no surprise to rese archers at the universities of Newcastle and Antwerp. 41 on studies in the Netherlands, they claim that maternal grandparents（外祖父母）are likely to make greater efforts to maintain frequent contact 42 their grandchildren than paternal grandparents（祖父母）.They 43 that psychological behaviors related to human evolution are involved: women are always sure of their relationship to their sons or daughters, 44 men can never be wholly certain they are their children biological fathers.Further more, maternal grandparents are always more certain than paternal grandparents 45 a grandchild is related to them: “Thus maternal grandparents may go the extra mile to visit their grandchildren.”The study, 46 by Thomas Pollet and his colleagues, found that for grandparents 47 within 30 km of their grandchildren, more than 30 per cent of maternal grandmothers and 25 per cent of maternal grandfathers had 48 daily or a few times a week. In 49 , this fell to 15 percent for paternal grandparents.Mr. Pollet said: “Even in families where there has been divorce, we found 50 differences.

UnexpectedPart IV Translate from English to Chinese (20 points)Directions: Read the following passage and translate the 5 parts underlined in the following passage from English into Chinese and write them on the Translation Paper.Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. (51) An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (52)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man andreality. (53)By work people come into contact with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.(54 )Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(55)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study hard and live a happy and healthy life.Part V Writing (30 points)For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Animals—Pets or Sources of Food and Clothing?

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose thebest one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneHow much do you know about nutrition? If your knowledge is similar to that of food shopperswho answered three surveys for the U. S. Food and Drug Administration, then you probably share some wide-spread misinformation about nutrition. Check your answers to the following statements.Is it true or false?Statement 1: Fresh vegetables cooked at home are always more nutritious than canned or frozen vegetables. False. The nutritional difference depends more on how vegetables are handled or prepared than in whether they are bought fresh or packaged. Overcooking, for example, destroys many nutrients. Vegetables cooked in too much water can lose a significant amount of vitamins. Statement 2: When dieting, avoid starchy( 淀粉类) foods, such as bread or potatoes. False. If you cut out starchy foods, such as peas, potatoes, bread, and rice, you cut out very good sources of several B vitamins, Vitamin C, and other nutrients. Moreover, ounce for ounce, bread and potatoes have fewer calories than sirloin steak and roast beef.Statement 3: Taking extra vitamins beyond the recommended daily allowances won’tgive youmore energy. True. It ’s widely believed that extra vitamins provide moreye. n B e u r g t taking more than the body needs doesn't make it function better, just as overfilling your gas tank doesnyour car run faster.If you answered these questions correctly, you can for the time being consider yourself well informed about food and nutrition by today ’s standards. But remember that nutrition is a complexand growing science and that today ’bseliefs may be changed as new information becomes available.16.

Starchy foods include only peas, potatoes, bread and rice.19.

Misleading Nutrition ConceptsPassage TwoMost women in Ghana--the educated and illiterate, the urban and rural, the young and old--workto earn an income in addition to maintaining their roles as housewives and mothers. Their reputation for economic independence, self-reliance, and hard work is well known and well deserved.Most of Ghana ’ s working women are farmers and traders. Only one woman in five, or even fewer, can be classified as simply housewives. Even these women often earn money by sewing orby baking and cooking things to sell. They also maintain vegetable gardens and chicken farms. Indeed, the woman who depends entirely upon her husband for support is looked upon with disfavor.Traditionally the tasks of motherhood have been shared. Mothers and sisters, grandmothers and nieces all helped to raise the children and to carry out daily tasks. As the family grew, olderbrothers and sisters also helped to care for the younger ones and helped in the home. Now with more children going to school, with more people moving away from their traditional homes, notonly must the mother continue her income-producing activities, but she must take on all the heavy, time-consuming housework.Ghana today is looking for new ways to meet the needs of women and their families, such as providing more day care centers, so women can continue to play their multiple roles in the homeand in the economy.21. What is the role of most women in Ghana?A. Handling various housework at home.B. Taking care of children indoors.C. Farming and trading out of house.D. Working as well as maintaining families.22.“ s-erelfliance ”could be explained as “ __________ ”.A. making great wealthB. depending on oneselfC. caring for one ’ s ownD. being a reliable person23. What kind of women do people in Ghana prefer?A. Beautiful and charming.B. Skillful at sewing or baking.C. Depending totally on husbands.D. Working hard to earn incomes.24. Paragraph 3 describes__________.A. how traditional extended families operateB. why women in Ghana have more burdens nowC. how changes in life help the working womenD. the new life style of Ghana ’ s people25. The author of this article probably agrees that women inGhana should__________.A. stay at home and focus on family lifeB. become as active as men in businessC. try to maintain their original rolesD. make a choice and stick to one rolePassage ThreeThe blues was born on the Mississippi River Delta in the early 1900s. After the Civil War, theslaves were free but life was still not easy. They had to find new work. In the South, work camps were formed. Black people from these camps worked on farms and on building up the Mississippi River banks. During the week the people worked long and hard. They often lived alone, without their families, far from home. On the weekends, the workers got together at picnics or drinking places. Travelling black musicians with guitars entertained them. The musicians sang songs about the difficult life of the workers. These songs were called the blues.If you have the blues it means you feel very sad. You can have the blues because you have no money, no job, no lover, or no home. But blue songs were not always sad. Some of them werehappy and many of them were funny.Sometimes the blues singers had song contests. Each singer sang new words or a new style of the blues song. They made up the music as they played. In this way they created new music. This is called improvisation. Later, improvisation became a very important part of jazz music.Blues began in the country in the South. As blacks moved into the big cities to work, the blues went with them. There, they sang about life in the cities. W. C. Handy, a black band leader from Memphis made the blues popular all over America. In 1914 he wrote the most famous blues songof all, “ The St. Louis Blues ”.26.

The blues were born in the country in the South.B. The blues soon disappeared in big cities.C. W. C. Handy is the first blues singer in US.D.

(76)People who lived in northeastern Asia found their homeland growing colder. Huge sheets of ice were spreading over the land, and animals people hunted for food were being forced away. The people also had to move, to stay near the animals. Some groups of people crossed Bering Strait from Asia to North Pacific Ocean, which separates northeastern Asia from Alaska. (77)These people slowly traveled east and south, searching for areas where hunting was good. Their children and all those who came after them continued to spread throughout the New World.The Indians do not have yellowish skin that many Asian people have. Their skin is reddish brown. But like the people of Japan and other countries of Asia, Indians usually have high cheekbones and straight black hair.1.

The Indians have reddish brown skin Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old question and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. (78)Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about.(79)The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "You are such a smart child."6. The words "intelligent" and "brilliant" in the first paragraph probably mean __ while "dull" in the second paragraph means __A. bright and splendid.., slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome.., ordinary-lookingC. great and important.., commonD. hopeful and helpful.., careless7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is __ while an idiot is___.A. a normal person.., a funny personB. a strong person.., a weak personC. a highly intelligent person.., a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person.., an ordinary person8.

It is better for parents_____________A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible10. Which of the following is not true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children's growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.ID. Parents should always encourage their children.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Scientists were embroiled(使…卷入) last week in an international row over genetically modified cotton (GM cotton).A study in China suggested for the first time that the crop was permanently damaging the environment and that insects were building up resistance to it.The study, by the Nanjing institute of Environmental Science, combined the laboratory and field work from four Chinese scientific institutes. The study was done over a several-year period.GM cotton had a gene resistance to the cotton bollworm棉铃虫) and isolated from thebacterium (细菌) named Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), but the study found that it harms the natural parasitic （寄生的) enemies of the cotton bollworm.It also indicated that populations of pests besides the bollworm had increased in Bt cotton fields and some had replaced the bollworm as the primary pest.However, the leading GM company, the US's Monsanto, which controls more than 80 per cent of the Bt cotton grown worldwide, dismissed the research.It said that the industry has always cited GM cotton as its biggest success, because it can increase yields by up to 60 per cent and reduce the need for pesticides(杀虫剂) by 80 per cent.But, unfortunately for the industry, (80) the scientists also found that the resistance of Bt cotton to bollworm decreased significantly over time.11.

本科学士学位英语考试模拟试题（一）Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions：There are three passages in this part. 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 center.Passage 1American medical instruments and techniques are the most advanced in the world. Bu the medical costs are enormous. One of my Chinese friends got in a car accident and was scratched a little bit on his forehead.(76) He was admitted into a hospital and the doctor immediately gave him a through physical check-up from head to toes. Then he was charged$ 800 . My friend wondered why the American doctor made such a fuss.There are several different reasons for this. One reason is that the fees are divided among several different places. Secondly, there are many lawsuits（诉讼）against doctors in America. They have a lot of money and a lot of people go to court to try to get their money. (77)If doctors don‟t check something, and it turns out that they need to check it, the patient can sue（控告）for hundreds of thousands of dollars for a small oversight（疏忽）. The third reason is that medicine in America is a business for profit in many cases. The last reason is that a lot of American people can‟t pay the high medical costs. But by law the hospital has to take care of them anyway. So hospital has to charge other people more money to make up for those who can …t pay very much or nothing at all.1. “Enormous” means _________.A. normalB. smallC. very greatD. certain2. The doctors always have to give a patient a thorough examination so that ______.A. they can find the cause of the diseaseB. they can take good care of himC. people will sing high praise for themD. they cannot be sued later3. An American doctor does a lot of tests to patient because______.A. the tests are quite necessaryB. he makes it a rule to do as much work as possibleC. the patient wants him to do soD. the more work he does, the more money he can charge you and the more profit he can make4. Which of the following is true?A. The medical costs in American have increased so much that a lot of Americans are unable to provide medical case for the family.B. In the eye of the law the hospital needn‟t take care of the poor patients.C. By law the rich in America have to pay high medical care for the family.D. Not every American can get medical care.5. The best title for this passage is _____A. High Costs in AmericaB. American Medical CareC. The Rich and the Poor in American HospitalD. Too Much Work for American DoctorsCDDABPassage 2In many countries there is a fixed charge for personal services. A certain percentage many be added to the bill at a hotel or restaurant “for the service”. (78)In other places the customer many be expected to give a tip, or a small amount of money, as a sign of appreciation whenever services are performed. In the United States there is no consistent practice in regard to tipping. The custom is more common in large city than in a small town. A native American may often be in doubt about when and how much to tip when he is in a city that is strange to him(79). In general, however, a tip is expected by the porter who carries your baggage, by taxi drivers (except, perhaps, in small towns), and by those who serve you in hotels and restaurants.When you pick up your incoming luggage at an airport, you may tip the man who takes it to the taxi or airport bus. He usually expects 35 cents a bag for his service. In some cities the taxi that takes you to your hotel many have one meter that shows the cost of the trip and another that shows a fixed charge, usually about 20 cents, for “extra” . In some cities the taxi driver may expec t a tip in addition to the “extra” , especially if he carries your suitcase. If no “extra” ischarged, tip is usually given. Hotels generally do not make a service charge, though there are places where one is added. It is customary, however , to give something to the porter who carries your suitcases and shows you to your room. In case of doubt, 35 cents for each bag he carries is satisfactory. In a restaurant you generally leave about 15 percent of the bill in small change on that table as tip for the person who has served you. A service charge is generally not included except in some the large , more expensive places. If the order is small—a cup of coffee at a lunch counter, or something of the sort--- a tip is not usually expected.6. According to the passage, the practice of giving tips____________A.is consistent throughout the world.B.Varies from place to place in the USA.C.is consistent in large towns in the USAD.s consistent in small towns in the USA.7. According to the passage, the following are the people one may tip EXCEPT__________A. portersB. taxi driversC. waitersD. cleaners8. According to the passage, which of the following is INCORRECT?A.“Extra” is a fixed charge in some cities.B.“Extra” is similar to tip in some cases.C.If the “extra” is paid, one doesn‟t tip any more.D.Some hotels require people to pay a service charge.9. According to the passage, the amount of money for a tip____________A.is the same across restaurants and hotels.B.depends on how much one pays for his meal.C.generally varie s according to the size of one‟s bag in hotel.D.is usually small for a cup of coffee at a lunch counter10. From the passage we learn that_______A.Americans sometimes are not sure how to tip.B.People in large towns know more about tippingC.One has to tip no matter how big or small the order is.D.People sometimes don‟t tip when they are not satisfied.BDCBAPassage 3Much has been said and written recently about heroes, chiefly because many people think we have too few of them. There are many different kinds of heroes, but they all seem to have two things in common. First, heroes, by their actions, show the great possibilities of human nature. Second, heroes can also stand the test of time, and their achievements will not be easily forgotten. Because of these qualities, we need to choose our heroes carefully.Olympic track star Jackie Joyner-Kersee, who many people believe is a hero, warns young people to be careful of making heroes of athletes. She hopes that if someone tries to imitate her, it will be because she achieved her goals by working hard. Joyner-Kersee says that a hero should be someone who has made difference in another person‟s life.Poet Maya Angelou believes that a hero inspires people to treat others well and to be concerned about the greater good. A hero should show politeness, courage, patience, and strength all the time. (80) A hero should inspire others to follow their concerns with actions that improve the world, even if only in small ways.Author Daniel Boorstin suggest that, “Celebrities are people who make news, but heroes are people who make history.” Thus , if a person is truly worthy to be called a hero, he or she will not be soon forgotten.We all need heroes. We need to be able look up to people who have been there, done that, and succeeded. Many times the greatest heroes are the people we deal with daily—relatives, friends, and neighbours ---who have kept going when it would have been easier to give up. The parent who puts her or his family ahead of a potential athletic career, the grandparent who chooses to stay and work instead of seeking fortune, the teacher who might have made more money at another career but chose to help others ---all these people can be considered as heroes. A hero quietly and steadily sets a good example, and example that inspires others to follow it.11. A good title of this passage is _______.A. Sports HeroesB. There Are No More HeroesC. People Need HeroesD. Everyday Heroes12. There is enough information in this story to show that _______.A. different people have different opinions of who is a heroB. we have fewer heroes today than we did in the pastC. a typical person seldom has a chance to become a heroD. young people today really don‟t need heroes anymore13. Which words would best describe a hero?A. Two things in commonB. Stand the test of time.C. Making more moneyD. people who make news.14. Why do people need heroes?A. To show how to make news and bring great fame.B. Because most people don‟t know how to do the right thing.C. To set a good example for them to follow.D. Because the world is a more different place than it was before.15.
