Because of a bad coldC. Bad cold as I hadPassage 1You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, theglass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls tool.11. Stuntmen are those who ___C___.A. often dress up as actorsB. prefer to lead dangerous livesC. often perform seemingly dangerous actionsD. often fight each other for their lives12. Stuntmen earn their living by ____B__.A. playing their dirty tricksB. selling their special skillsC. jumping out of high windowsD. jumping from fast moving trains13. When a stuntman falls from a high building, ___D___.A. he needs little protectionB. he will be covered with a mattressC. his life is endangeredD. his safety is generally all right14. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance?BA. Strength.B. Exactness.C. Speed.D. Carefulness.15. What can be inferred from the author' s example of the Norwegian stuntman? AA. Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman.B. The percentage of serious accidents is high.C. Parachutes must be of good quality.D. The cliff is too high.Passage 2Every weekday morning I take the 8:30 bus to go to my job. I know by sight several people who also fide that bus. Some of the girls work as maids. They get off at each stop in ones, twos or threes.But at one corner something wonderful happens. Before the bus stops, a little dog races out of the nearest house. He doesn't look at two of the maids who get off. But for the third he has a joyful "Hello!". From head to tail his little body wags his happiness. Everyoneon the bus watches until the maid and the dog go into the house.One day not long ago the maid wasn't on the bus. I wondered if the dog would be waiting for her. Sure enough, he was!He stood at the back door of the bus for a minute. I could see his joyful welcome turning into fearful worry. Where was she? The driver closed the back door. The dog raced to the front door. It, too, shut in his face.Everyone on the bus felt sad. Poor little pup! He looked so unhappy, standing there!The driver couldn't stand it. He opened the door and looked down at the dog. "She didn't come today," he said, in a loud, kind voice.A man in a front seat leaned forward. "Maybe she will come tomorrow," he called.The dog wagged his tail as if to say "thank you." He watched the bus as we pulled away. Then he turned to trot home ─alone. The next day everyone on the bus was happy to see the maid back again. Yes, the dog was waiting for her.The welcome he gave her was even warmer and more delighted than usual. We all smiled at one another. How bright and good the morning suddenly seemed to us!16. What do the people on the bus usually see at one corner?DA. A little dog coming close to the bus when it stops.B. Two maids get off the moment the bus stops.C. A dog waiting for someone.D. A dog greets a maid merrily and follow her into a house.17. One day the maid wasn't on the bus and the dog __C_.A. didn't appearB. stood waiting at the bus stop till the bus leftC. raced about looking for the maidD. went back the moment he found the maid wasn't there18. All this made people on the bus _A__.A. awfully sorryB. greatly surprisedC. very boredD. much exited19. The next day people on the bus were happy, for __A_.A. the maid was among them againB. she would not take the same busC. she was not on their busD. she was waiting for an empty bus to come20. We can safely say this story is about _D__.A. a magic dogB. a young maid that has magic powersC. a bus that can produce magical resultsD. the close relationship between a maid and her dogPassage 3People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more trash and garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles to the air.The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy for traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the live of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.21. The key point of the passage is that __B____.A. the cause of air pollution is people。

Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parentsknow and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society,young people often travel great distances for their education, moveout of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom theirparents have never met, and choose jobs different from those oftheir parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do allthe things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another causeof the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have verylittle in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society isthe third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditionalculture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in oursociety the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. Theyoung and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generationgap will continue in American life for some time to come.6.The first paragraph tells us that ______.A.the problem of the generation gap draws much attentionfrom peopleB.it is out of date to talk about the generation gapC.children and parents are trying to understand each otherD.it is very important for people to frequently communicatewith each other7.In a more traditional society, old people_______.A.have their children respect and listen to themB.do not care for their children at allC.expect their children to rebel against themD.do not live together with their children8.In American society young people________.A.do not need to find jobsB.leave home at an early ageC.have better education than their parentsD. marry people younger than them9.Which of the following is NOT the causA.Young people like to depend moreB.Parents do not love their children dC.American society changes rapidly.D.Parents expect too much of their c10.The main idea of the passage is ____A.that the generation gap needs coB.when the generation gap is neceC.why the generation gap existD.how we can reduce the generatio二、交际用语 (此部分共有 10 个未完成的完成的部分有 4 个选项，请你从 A、B、个最佳选项。

Have you ever noticed that people who cannot read or write usually have better memories than those who can? Whyis this? Of course, because those who cannot read or write have to remember things; they cannot write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember dates, times and prices, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.

He handed it to the elderly couple. They thanked him.“Where are your children?” asked Minh. “Why don’t they help you buy food?”“Our children have their own lives,” they said. “We like to be free to do as we like.” Minh doesn’t think this is right.

She wishes that he was as easy to please as her mother, who was always delighted with perfume. Besides, shopping at this time of the year was a most disagreeable experience: people trod on your toes, poked you with their elbows and almost knocked you over in their haste to get to a bargain ahead of you.Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter where some attractive ties were on display. "They are real silk," the assistant assured her, trying to tempt her. "Worth doubles the price." But Edith knew from past experience that her choice of ties hardly ever pleased her father.She moved on reluctantly and then quite by chance, stopped where a small crowd of man had gathered round a counter. She found some good quality pipes on sale-----and the prices were very reasonable. Edith did not hesitate for long: although her father only smoked a pipe occasionally, she knew that this was a present which was bund to please him.When she got home, with her small well-chosen present concealed in her handbag, her parents were already at the supper table.

New Yorkers are famous for not agreeing on anything. Arguments, both good-natured and not, erupt(爆发) daily on everything from politics to food, world events to the price of vegetables. However, for a brief moment, a half-dozen architectural models managed to uniteNew Yorkpublic opinion. The models were of proposed designs of buildings to replace the fallen World Trade Centre, and the overwhelming reaction was: “They stink” (糟透了).

Reading Comprehension (30 points)Directions: There are 3 passages in this section. 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 centrePassage OneOne of the strongest reasons for the raising of the school leaving age has been that it will bring us nearer to the ideal of “equal opportunity”.Many people like to think of our present system of schooling as providing plenty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children. It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can fail to become successful when the state system is apparently so thorough. It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less rich homes reach university or do well in other ways.Unfortunately, we now have plenty of evidence that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could. For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence of all males aged between 18 and 20. Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two highest ability groups had left schools at 15.It has also been shown that percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939. One study of 5,000 children from birth to 21 years old indicated that up to half the bright pupils from working class homes left school when they reached 16 years old. Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexed, but far more boys than girls stay in education after 16.It is clear form this and much other evidence that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit form the prizes----money, social respectability, and interesting jobs, which higher education gives. It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social circumstances. Their parents often need the extra money another wage-earner can bring in; they do not value education for itself because their own was probably dull and unhappy. It is not so much that they for ce their sons and daughters to leave school, rather that they tend to say, “it’s up to you.”61.What’s the purpose of raising the school leaving age?A.To provide steps up the ladder of success.B.To provide children with the same chances in society.C.To give children the right to a better school.D.To give children a more thorough state system.62.In people’s eyes, the education system _______.A.provides enough chances to success for childrenB.misses no children who are really cleverC.only provides chances for children from rich familiesD.does not give equal chances to all bright children.63.Working class children are felt to be at a disadvantage because _______.A.many of the clever ones leave school earlyB.fewer go to university than ever beforeC.more than half leave school when they are 16D.fewer boys than girls stay at school after 1664.Many children leave school early because ______.A.their social circumstances make them unhappyB.they have to work to help support their familyC.their school is a dull and unhappy placeD.their parents don’t allow them to make their own decisions65.This article shows that equal opportunity in education _______.C.is a thing of the past B. has not yet been achievedD.is there for those who merit it D. has greatly improved our societyPassage TwoWhat you give your relatives, friends, husband, or wife can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives what ---and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they’re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries today--- so much that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered unusual. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. People who give homemade gifts may be said to be very generous. They’ve given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food when thinking of a gift is a good example of what human warmth means. Whether you gibe a box of chocolates, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large, heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.66. The first paragraph is written mainly to tell readers that _____.A.gifts you give can help you understand yourself betterB.gifts should be given when you know a person’s personalityC.gifts can show friendship and love between the giver and receiverD.gifts can tell you something about the person who gives them67. A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter _______.A.beautiful clothes to compliment the receiverB. a gift that was made at home by the giverC. a gift that agrees with the personality of the receiverD.a gift that matches the character of the giver68. People are especially generous if they give ______.A.a thing not found in one’s countryB. an object that shows warmthC. something unusualD. gifts made by hand69. What kind of message is communicated by a gift of food?A.A supportive oneB. A generous oneC. A creative oneD. An usual one70. If you give a large book as a gift, rather than a small one, it may show that ______.A.you enjoy reading very much and want the receiver to enjoy it tooB.the receiver is interesting in reading a large book of that sortC.you want to share with others a certain feeling or newly learned meaningD.you are more interested in the appearance of the book than in its contentsPassage ThreeThe standardized educational or psychological tests, which are widely used to aid in selecting, assigning or promoting students, employees and military personnel, have been the target of recent attacks in books, magazines, the daily press, and even in Congress. The target is wrong, for, in attacking the tests, critics divert attention from the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users. The tests themselves are merely tools. Whether the results will be valuable, meaningless, or even misleading depends partly upon the tool itself but largely upon the user.All informed predictions of future performance are based upon some knowledge of relevant past performance. How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount, reliability and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted. Anyone who keeps careful score knows that the information available is always incomplete and that the predictions are always subject to error.Standardized tests should be considered in this context: they provide a quick, objective method of getting some kind of information about what a person has learned, the skills he has developed, or the kind of person he is. The information so obtained has, qualitatively, the same advantages and shortcomings as other kinds of information. Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation depends, therefore, upon the empirical evidence concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.In general, the tests work most effectively when the traits or qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined (for example, ability to do well in a particular course of training program) and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted cannot be well defined, for example, personality or creativity. Properly used, they provide a rapid means of getting comparable information about many people. Sometimes they identify students whose high potential has not been previously recognized.71. In this passage, the author is primarily concerned with _________.A. the necessity of standardized testsB. the validity of standardized testsC. the method used in interpreting the results of standardized tests.D. the theoretical grounds of standardized tests.72. We can infer from the passage that _______.A. standardized tests should no longer be used.B. results of standardized tests accurately reflect the abilities of the testeesC. the value of standardized tests lies in their proper interpretationD. special methods must be applied to the result of standardized tests.73. The word “empirical” (Line 6, Para.3) most probably means “__________”.A. theoreticalB. criticalC. indisputableD. experiential74. According to the passage, standardized tests work most effectively when ___________.A. the user knows how to interpret the results in advance.B. the objectives are most clearly defined.C. the persons who take the test are intelligent or skillful.D. they measure the traits or qualities of the tests75. The author’s attitude toward standardized tests could be described as _______.A. positiveB. criticalC. prejudicedD. indifferent.Part V. Translation (20 points)Section A: translate the following sentences into English. (10 points)76. 她连水都不愿喝一口，更别提留下来吃饭了。

French influence on this continent thus came to an end；England now controlled most of North America. But the war had been long and expensive. England had many debts. George III，king of England，after consulting with his advisers，decided that the American colonists（殖民者）should help pay some of the expenses of this war. A standing English army of 10，000 men had been left in the colonies（殖民地）forprotection against the Indians. The English government alsofelt that the colonists should share in the expenses of maintaining this army. The result was a series of measures，the Grenville Program，passed by Parliament and designed to raise money in the colonies. Some of these measures were accepted by the colonists，but one in particular，the Stamp Act，was met with great protest. The Stamp Act required that stamps，ranging in price from a few cents to almost a dollar，be placed on all newspapers，advertisements，bills of sale，wills，legal papers，etc. The Stamp Act was one of the causes of the American Revolution. It affected everyone，rich and poor alike. Some businessmen felt that the act would surely ruin their businesses.Of all the voices raised in protest to the Stamp Act，none had greater effect than that of a young lawyer from V irginia - Patrick Henry. Henry had only recently been elected to the Virginia Assembly. Y et when the Stamp Act came up for discussion，he opposed it almost single-handedly. He also expressed，for the first time，certain ideas that were held by many Americans of the time but that never before had been stated so openly. “Is life so dear or peace so sweet，as to be bought at the price of chains and slavery？Forbid it，Almighty （万能的）God！I know not what course others may take，but as for me，give me liberty，or give me death！”21.From the text we learn that ___________________.A、Britain took over Canada from the Indians in 1763B、there had been a war between the French and the Indians which ended in 1763C、France used to have control of Canada and some areas east of the Mississippi RiverD、the French still kept some influence in North America through the Treaty of Paris22.The Grenville Program refers to ___________________.A、King George IIIs plan to gather money in North AmericaB、the British governments desire to raise money in North AmericaC、a plan to share the expenses of maintaining an army in the American coloniesD、a decision of the British Parliament to collect money in the American colonies23.The Stamp Act ___________________.A、was an act about selling stamps at prices from a few cents to almost a dollarB、required that all commercial and legal documents in America have stamps on themC、was the main cause of the American RevolutionD、chiefly affected business people who felt it would ruin their businesses24.From the text we learn that Patrick Henry ___________________.A、had been a member of the Virginia Assembly for a long timeB、didnt know what courses to take to complete his studies as a lawyerC、was almost the only one who openly protested against the Stamp ActD、didnt value life or peace as much as other people did25.This passage is mainly about ___________________.A、one of the events leading to the American RevolutionB、the Treaty of Paris between Britain and FranceC、the Grenville Program to raise money in the American coloniesD、Patrick Henry， a hero who opposed the Stamp ActPassage Two：Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A number of recent books have reworked subjects，forms and writing techniques. Todays children read stories about divorce，death，drugs，air pollution，political extremism and violence. Relying on the magic of the illustrator，all kinds of books are being published.Before they know to read，babies can play with books made of cloth or books made to take in the bath. Later on，they are given picture books that may be cubical（立方形的）or triangular，outsized or very small. They also like work-books which come with watercolours and paintbrushes，and comic books（漫画册）filled with details where they have to spot a figure hidden among thousands of others.Not that the traditional childrens books are being neglected. There are still storybooks where the pages pop up（跳起）when they are opened，to make a forest or a castle. Among the latest ideas are interactive stories where readers choose the plot（情节）or ending they want，and books on CD，which are very popular in rich industrialized countries.The public has enthusiastically greeted the wealth of creativity displayed by publishers. “Previously，giving a child a book as often seen as improper，” says Canadian author Marie-France Hebért. Her books，published by a French-language publisher，sell like hot cakes in hundreds of thousands of copies. “Theres a real appetite for reading these days and I try to get across to children the passion for reading which is food for the mind and the heart，like a medicine or a vitamin.”26.“Reworked” as used in Paragraph 1 means“___________________”。

(30 points)Section A：Passage OneWant increase your vocabulary? Here are five tried-and-true methods.1. Pay attention to context (上下文).When you come across an unfamiliar word, try to figure out its meaning by using hints (暗示) from other words or visuals (画面). For example, when an ad for a food processor (加工器) promises that it will help you prepare “a sumptuous family breakfast, including eggs, fruit, pastries (各式糕点), and more,” you can infer (推断) that sumptuous means “lavish” (丰盛的) or “magnificent” (极好的). The words, along with the photo that may accompany the ad, can help you guess the meaning.2. Learn a new word daily.Each day, pick a word from the dictionary and try to use it as often as possible. Realize you’ve forgotten your best friend’s birthday? Just exclaim (大声说出), “How gauc he (笨拙) of me!” Y ou’ll make much more of an impression (印象) than if you just say “thoughtless” (粗心的).3. Associate (把…跟…联系起来) new words with people orplaces.One way to learn something new is to associate something you don’t know with something you do. Let’s say you learn that urbane (温文尔雅的) means “elegant” (高雅的) or “refined” (有教养的). Associate that new word with someone who is like that —perhaps your English teacher. Then, whenever you read “urbane” again, your teacher’s face will pop (突然出现) into your he ad, and you’ll remember the word’s meaning.4. Listen to good vocabulary sources.Hearing words used correctly will help you learn their denotations (本义) (dictionary definitions (定义)) and connotations (转意) (implied meanings). Keep your ears open —especially to respectable sources. Listen to National Public Radio occasionally instead of pop music stations. Watch TV shows that feature (由…担纲) articulate (口才好的) people discussing current events (时事) or comedies (喜剧) that use clever wordplay (俏皮话). Learn new words as you enjoy leisure (闲暇的) activities.5. Become an active reader.Well written magazines such as Time （《时代》）or The Smithsonian （《史密森》杂志）can provide painless (无痛的) vocabulary lessons as you wait in the dentist’s (牙医的) office.Outstanding fiction (小说) and nonfiction (非小说) are as close as your local library. As you read, no tice the words that authors use: When you come upon one you don’t know and can’t figure out from context, look it up.It’s fun to make note of an author’s “favorite” words. For example, you’ll come across furtive (偷偷摸摸的) at least a dozen times in Mark Tw ain’s The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (《汤姆·索亚历险记》). Do you know what it means?To monitor (检测) your progress, keep a notebook of new words you acquire (学到). By the end of the year, you’ll be surprised at how many words you’ve learned. Review the list regu larly to refresh your memory (加深记忆), put a star by favorite words, and use them often!46. While reading, it is possible to know the meaning of a word __________.A. from its contextB. by studying some advertisementsC. from notes given by the writerD. by talking to someone at breakfast47. According to the writer, by using a word that is less commonly used, one can ____________.A. befriend other people more easilyB. show how learned and knowledgeable one isC. make a deep impression on other peopleD. remember that word forever48. By associating new words with people or places, the writer believes that _________________.A. one can remember those people or placesB. one can get those people’s support and friendshipC. one can remember the meaning of those wordsD. one can learn to be more elegant or refined49. People can increase the size of their vocabulary not only from written sources, but also from________________.A. spoken sourcesB. talking to articulate people onlyC. current eventsD. taking part in as many leisure activities as possible50. The writer mentions Time and The Smithsonian when he tells the reader to be an activereader because he thinks that these magazines ____________.A. can be found in all local librariesB. ar e most suitable to be read in the dentist’s officeC. should be read by well educated people onlyD. can help people increase their vocabulary in a leisurely wayPassage T woThis is not the world we know. This world is controlled by computers. Men and women canbe seen, but they are following orders given to them by machines. The machines were designed by mad scientists, but at some point even the mad scientists were taken over(取代) by their super-inventions.Does this sound familiar（熟悉）? Y ou have probably read something like it in magazines or books, or seen it in a film. Why is it so popular? One of the reasons is that it reflects the fears of many people; fear of the unknown, fear of what is not understood or, at least, fear or something that is not completely understood.The fact is that every day it seems that computers take control of another area of our lives. Some factory jobs are now done by robots and the robots are controlled by computers. Our bank accounts（账户）are managed by computers. At the airport, our tickets are sold by computers. Certainly, many of these operations are made more efficient by computers, but our admiration is sometimes mixed with unsafe feelings. And this lack of safety is caused by the fact that we do not know how computers do these things, and we really don’t know what they might do next.But we can find out how computers work, and once we understand them, we can use computers instead of worrying about being used by them. T oday there is a new generation of computer wizards (奇才) who know exactly how computers get things done. These young men and women, usually university students, are happy to sit for hours, sometimes for days, designing programs, not eating, not sleeping, but discovering what can be done by these wonderful slaves which they learned to control. These computer wizards have learned to use the computers and search for new tasks for their machines.51We can know that he scientists who designed the machines___________A.are careless in their daily life.B.are unkind and cruelC.are out of their mindD.have great abilities52.The reason why many people are afraid of computers is that____________A.they don’t know anything about computersB.they haven’t really understood computersC.there are so many computer gamesputers are often down53.The author mentions computer wizards in order to point out that___________A. computers can be controlled by manB. there should be more people devoted to computersC. only young people are interested in computersD. more time and energy is required to control computers54.This passage is probably written to suggest that _____________A. some day computers can deal with all human problemsB. computers can be used in places for traveling to our jobsC. people should not be afraid of computersD. computer technology will not meet people’s needs in various situations55.The author’s attitude towards widely used computers is_______________A. positiveB. anxiousC. worried D curiousSection B (2×5＝10 points)Directions: Read the announcement and write down the answers that follow the questions briefly.During the summer holidays there will be a changed schedule of services for the students.
