Custom has also governed the common practice in regard to its use. All the armed services have precise regulations on how to display the national flag. This may vary somewhat from the general rules. The national flag should be raised and lowered by hand. Do not raise the flag while it is folded. Unfold the flag first, and then hoist it quickly to the top of the flagpole. Lower it slowly and with dignity. Place no objects on or over the flag. Do not use the flag as part of a costume or athletic uniform. Do not print it upon cushions, handkerchiefs, paper napkins or boxes. A federal law provides that the trademark cannot be registered if it comprises the flag, or badgers of the US. When the flag is used to unveil a statue or monument, it shouldn't serve as a covering of the object to be unveiled. If it is displayed on such occasions, do not allow the flag to fall to the ground, but let it be carried high up in the air to form a feature of the ceremony. Take every precaution to prevent the flag from soiled. It should not be allowed to touch the ground or floor, nor to brush against objects.(1)、How do Americans ensure proper respect for the national flag? _________A:By making laws.B:By enforcing discipline.C:By educating the public.D:By holding ceremonies.(2)、What is the regulation regarding the raising of the American National Flag? _________A:It should be raised by soldiers.B:It should be raised quickly by hand.C:It should be raised only by Americans.D:It should be raised by mechanical means.(3)、How should the American National Flag be displayed at an unveiling ceremony? _________ A:It should be attached to the status.B:It should be hung from the top of the monument.C:It should be spread over the object to be unveiled.D:It should be carried high up in the air.(4)、What do we learn about the use of the American National Flag? _________A:There has been a lot of controversy over the use of flag.B:The best athletes can wear uniforms with the design of the flag.C:There are precise regulations and customs to be followed.D:Americans can print the flag on their cushions or handkerchiefs.(5)、What is Americans' attitude towards their National Flag? _________A:Arbitrary.B:Respect.C:Happy.D:Brave.2、There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.(1)、Our long-term goals mean a lot _______.A:if we cannot reach solid short-term goalsB:if we complete the short-term goalsC:if we have dreams of the futureD:if we put forward some plans(2)、New short-term goals are built upon______.A:a daily basisB:your achievement in a weekC:current activitiesD:the goals that have been completed(3)、When we complete each step of our goals, ________.A:we will win final successB:we are overwhelmedC:we will build up our confidence to achieve successD:we should have strong desire for setting new goals(4)、What is the main idea of this passage? _______A:Life is a dynamic thing.B:We should set up long-term goals.C:Different kinds of goals in life.D:The limitation of long-term goals.(5)、Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? _______A:The long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without achieving short-term goals. B:The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.C:Life is a static thing, thus never allowing a long-term goal to limit us.D:We should often add new short-term goals to what have been completed.三、词汇与语法1、It's bad ________ for you to smoke in the public places where smoking is not allowed.A:behaviorB:actionC:mannerD:movement答案:A2、People at the party worried about him, because no one was aware ____ he had gone.A:of whereB:of the place whereC:whereD:the place答案:A3、Tom, what did you do with my documents?

大学英语读写译(1)期末测试题及答案2大学英语读写译(一)期末测试题(2)Part I. Reading Comprehension (50%)Section A. Skimming and Scanning (10%)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet.For questions 1-7, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage.For question 8-10,complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.If it weren’t for nicotine, people wouldn’t smoke tobacco. Why? Because of the more than 4000 chemicals in tobacco smoke, nicotine is the primary one that acts on the brain, altering people’s moo ds, appetites and alertness in ways they find pleasant and beneficial. Unfortunately, as it is widely known, nicotine has a dark side: it is highly addictive. Once smokers become hooked on it, they must get their fix of it regularly, sometimes several dozen times a day. Cigarette smoke contains 43 known carcinogens, which means that long-term smoking canamount to a death sentence. In the US alone, 420,000 Americans die every year from tobacco-related illnesses.Breaking nicotine addiction is not easy. Each year, nearly 35 million people make a concerted effort to quit smoking. Sadly, less than 7 percent succeed in abstaining for more than a year; most start smoking again within days. So what is nicotine and how does it insinuate itself into the smoker’s bra in and very being?The nicotine found in tobacco is a potent drug and smokers, and even some scientists, say it offers certain benefits. One is enhance performance. One study found that non-smokers given doses of nicotine typed about 5 percent faster than they did without it. To greater or lesser degrees, users also say nicotine helps them to maintain concentration, reduce anxiety, relieve pain, and even dampen their appetites (thus helping in weight control). Unfortunately, nicotine can also produce deleterious effects beyond addiction. At high doses, as are achieved from tobacco products, it can cause high blood pressure, distress in the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems and an increase in susceptibility to seizures and hypothermia.First isolated as a compound in 1828, in its pure form nicotine is a clear liquid that turns brown when burned and smells like tobacco when exposed to air. It is found in several species of plants, including tobacco and, perhaps surprisingly, in tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplant (though in extremely low quantities that are pharmacologically insignificant for humans).As simple as it looks, the cigarette is highly engineered nicotine delivery device. For instance, when tobacco researchers found that much of the nicotine in a cigarette wasn’t released when burned but rather remained chemically bound within the tobacco leaf, they began adding substances such as ammonia to cigarette tobacco to release more nicotine. Ammonia helps keep nicotine in its basic form, which is more readily vaporised by the intense heat of the burning cigarette than the acidic form. Most cigarettes for sale in the US today contain 10 milligrams or more of nicotine. By inhaling smoke from a lighted cigarette, the average smoker takes 1 or2 milligrams of vaporised nicotine per cigarette. Today we know that only a miniscule amount of nicotine is needed to fuel addiction. Research shows that manufacturers would have to cut nicotine levels in a typical cigarette by 95% to forestall its power to addict. When a smoker puffs on a lighted cigarette, smoke, including vaporised nicotine, is drawn into the mouth. The skin and lining of the mouth immediately absorb some nicotine, but the remainder flows straight down into the lungs, where it easily diffuses into the blood vessels lining the lung walls. The blood vessels carry the nicotine to the heart, which then pumps it directly to the brain. While most of the effects a smoker seeks occur in the brain, the heart takes a hit as well.Studies have shown that a smoker’s first cigarette of the day can increase his or her heart rate by 10 to 20 beats a minute. Scientists have found that a smoked substance reaches the brain more quickly than one swallowed, snorted (such as cocaine powder) or even injected. Indeed, a nicotine molecule inhaled in smoke will reach the brain within 10 seconds. The nicotine travels through blood vessels, which branch out into capillaries within the brain. Capillaries normally carry nutrients but they readily accommodate nicotine molecules as well. Once inside the brain, nicotine, like most addictive drugs, triggers the release of chemicals associated with euphoria and pleasure. Just as it moves rapidly from the lungs into the bloodstream, nicotine also easily diffuses through capillary walls. It then migrates to the spaces surrounding neurones –ganglion cells that transmit nerve impulses throughout the nervous system. These impulses are the basis for our thoughts, feelings, and moods. To transmit nerve impulses to its neighbour, a neurone releases chemical messengers known as neurotransmitters. Like nicotine molecules, the neurotransmitters drift into the so-called synaptic space between neurones, ready to latch onto the receiving neurone and thus deliver a chemical “message” that triggers an ele ctrical impulse.The neurotransmitters bind onto receptors on the surface of the recipient neurone. This opens channels in the cell surface through whichenter ions, or charged atoms, of sodium. This generates a current across the membrane of the receiving cell, which completes delivery of the “message”. An accomplished mimic, nicotine competes with the neurotransmitters to bind to the receptors. It wins and, like the vanquished chemical, opens ion channels that let sodium ions into the cell. But there’s a lot more nicotine around than the original transmitter, so a much larger current spreads across the membrane. This bigger current causes increased electrical impulses to travel along certain neurones. With repeated smoking, the neurones adapt to this increased electrical activity, and the smoker becomes dependent on the nicotine.Questions 1 – 71. Although nicotine is probably the well-known chemical in cigarettes, it is not necessarily the one that changes the psyche of the smoker when cigarettes are smoked.2. In spite of the difficulties, according to thetext more than thirty-five million people a yeargive up smoking.3. It has been shown that nicotine in cigarettescan improve people’s abilities to perform someactions more quickly.4. Added ammonia in cigarettes allows smokers to inhale more nicotine.5. Snorted substances reach the brain faster than injected substances.6. Nicotine dilates the blood vessels that carry it around the body.7. Nicotine molecules allow greater electrical charges to pass between neurones.Questions 8 – 108. Cigarette companies would have to cut the nicotine content in cigarettes by _________ to prevent them from being addictive.9. According to the passage, a cigarette can raisea smoker’s heart rate by _________ a minut e.10. In order to transmit nerve impulses to its neighbour, a neurone sends _________ known as neurotransmittersSection B. Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: In this section, there are 3 passages.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 OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.One of the most interesting paradoxes in America today is that Harvard University, the oldest university of higher learning in the United States, is now engaged in a serious discussion about what a university should be, and whether it is measuring up.Should Harvard—or any other university—be an intellectual sanctuary(圣地), apart from the political and social revolution of the age, or should it be a laboratory for experimenting with these political and social revolutions; or even an engine of the revolution?This issue was defined several years ago by Walter LippMann, a famous Harvard graduate: “If the universities are to do their work,” he said, “ they must be independent and they must be disinterested(公正)…They are places to which men can turn for judgments which are fair. Obviously, the moment the universities fall under political control, or under the control of private interests, or the moment they themselves take a hand in political affairs and leading positions in government, their value as independent as disinterested sources of judgment is weakened…”This is part of the discussion that is going on at Harvard today. Another part is the discussion of the militant(激进的) and even many conservative students that a university is the keeper of our ideals and morals, and should not be “disinterested”but active in bringing the nation’s ideals and actions together.Harvard’s men of today seem more troubled and less sure about personal, political and study purposes than they did at the beginning. They are not even clear about how they should discuss and resolve their problem, but they are struggling with them privately, and how they come out is sure to influence American university and political life.11. According to Walter LippMann, a university must _____.A. depend on the governmentB. take active part in political affairs and social issuesC. fall under the control of special and private interestsD. remain independent of our society12. Those who disagree with Walter LippMann argue that a university should_____.A. be engaged in a serious discussion on the role it plays in the societyB. support our old and established universitiesC. take an active part in solving society’s problemsD. not be interested in social revolutions13. In regard to their goals and purposes in life, Harvard men of today are becoming_____.A. more sure about themB. less sure about themC. Class interested in themD. completely lost14. The word “paradoxes” underlined in the first sentence of this passage means______.A. a difficult problemB. an out-of-the-ordinary conditionC. a self-contradiction (矛盾)D. an unusual situation15. According to the writer, the discussion going on at Harvard______.A. will soon be overB. will have no resultC. will influence future life in AmericaD. will cause little influence on other universitiesPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-esteem is the basis of a good mental health.A youngster, who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and become so afraid of failing, that he (or she) won’t try at all.Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong: this is the way children learn. But the criticisms should be balanced with praises. Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is charge of himself; it’s like being in a car without brakes. The parent who says “No” when other parents say “Yes” sends a double message .He is also saying:” I love you, and I am ready to risk your anger, because I don’t want you to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information that they will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy and respect for their personal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted, not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets.If a mother feels that she must read her daughter’s diary to know what is going on, the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The best way to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towels from a hotel will think that it is all right to steal. A youngster who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have difficult time laughing and loving.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something. And if you give him his due, he’ll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.16. According to the passage, parents owe their children the following things except______.A. carsB. privacyC. respectD. information about their body17. The writer things that teenagers arefrightened when they are in charge of themselves because_________.A. they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB. there is no one to guide and discipline themC. they are afraid of being left aloneD. there is no one to ask for help when in trouble18. Which of the following ways is advised for parents to show love to their children?A. Saying” Yes” to everything the children ask forB. Never embracing older childrenC. Refusing something to their childrenD. Never criticizing children19. The word “due” in the last p aragraph means________.A. something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB. reasonable explanation(s) or plan(s)C. what must be given to someone because it is right or owingD. the money to be paid20. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own lives at an early age.B. Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C. Children shouldn’t be corrected because it destroys their self-esteem.D. It is better to compare a youngster to hisbrighter brothers because it makes him try harder.Passage ThreeQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economies. It has been argued that the supply of a good land is limited. To feed a large population, poor land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be contained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more chance of development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to bebuilt unless there is a big demand.One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw material. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, the first concern of government will be to set a limit on the birthrate, whatever the final result may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and building industry grows weaker. Faced with concerns such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.21. The main topic of this article is _______.A. environment protectionB. population growthC. environment and economyD. climate changing22. The passage says that a small population may lead to _______.A. higher production, but a lower average incomeB. lower production and lower average incomeC. higher production and a higher average incomeD. lower production, but a higher average income23. According to the passage, the use of birth control perhaps is good for________.A. a developing countryB. a developed countryC. the whole worldD. each nation with a big population24. In a developed country, people will perhaps be unemployed if the birthrate________.A. goes upB. goes downC. remains stableD. is out of control25. The author is aiming to show that ________.A. humans will run out of their food supply in the futureB. it is necessary for humans to carry out a worldwide plan for birth controlC. different nation have different views of population growthD. we need to take necessary measures to prevent the overuse of natural resourcesSection C Reading in Depth (10%)Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

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 your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Dolphins (海豚) are not fish, but warm-blooded animals. They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time --- at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them findtheir way around. They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called “The penguin” shot and wounded Jack. He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area --- except for “The Penguin”.Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.36.Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they ______.A. live in groupsB. have large brainsC. are warm-bloodedD. have their own language37.Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around?A. Its nose.B. Its ears.C. Its mouth.D. Its eyes.38.Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look forJack?A. He was lonely and liked to be with people.B. They enjoyed playing with him.C. He was seriously wounded.D. They wanted his help39.By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that ______.A. dolphins are friendly and cleverB. people are cruel to animalsC. Jack is different from other dolphinsD. dolphins should be protected by law40.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Dolphins have their own language.B. Dolphins use a part of their mouth to find their way around.C. In many countries one will break the law if he/she kills a dolphin.D. It took Jack nine years to recover after it was wounded by the shot in 1903.Passage 2Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural difference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family, and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are, if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms bygiving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a bed near them.The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone.Although it is true that psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons, they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.41.The passage is chiefly concerned with ______.A. American way of livingB. living conditions in different countriesC. space requirements in different culturesD. space requirements and economic factors42.According to the author, the amount of living space a person needs is decided by ______.A. his cultural backgroundB. the relationship between the family membersC. his financial situationsD. how many rooms there are in his house43.The example of American families seems to suggest that ______.A. Americans are more eager to be alone when they are at homeB. psychological space needs are developed when one is very youngC. it is advisable to let the baby sleep with his parentsD. it is advisable to let the baby sleep in a separate room44.Some families gather close to each other at home because ______.A. they have limited living spaceB. it satisfies their psychological space needsC. they have been brought up in a small familyD. they haven’t small corners for themselves45.According to the author, psychological space needs ______.A. will change as one’s incomes are reducedB. will change if you move to a smaller houseC. can be changed at willD. cannot be changed completelyPassage 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 (烟) 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 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 cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add pollution to the air.The effects of air pollution range from slight headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are usedfor fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode (腐蚀). In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the lives of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.46.The key point of the passage is that ______.A. the cause of air pollution is peopleB. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in citiesC. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to deathD. air pollution is caused by dirty air47.What is the purpose of this passage?A. To persuade people to stop polluting the air.B. To tell the causes of air pollution.C. To tell why cities are bad places to live in.D. To describe how people living in cities feel about polluted air.48.Why is air pollution more serious in the city than in the country?A. Because there are larger population in cities.B. Because the air in the city is dirty.C. Because there are more cars in the city.D. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energyin the city than in the country.49.The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal ______.A. to turn blackB. to become rustyC. to corrodeD. to twist50.In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contributeto ______.A. lung diseasesB. heart diseasesC. loss of clear visionD. serious headachePassage 4A man once sa id how useless it was to put advertisements in newspapers. “Last week,” said he, “my umbrella was stolen from a London church, it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but did not get it back.”“How did you write your advertisement?” asked one of the listeners, a merchant.“Here it is,” said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, “Lost an umbrella from the City church, the man who finds it will receive ten shillings leaving it at No. 10 Br oad Street.”“Now,” said the merchant, “I often advertise and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance. Let us try your umbrella again, and if it fails, I’ll buy you a new one.”The merchant the n took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: “If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening does not wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known.”This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown, and his own was among them. Many of them had notes fastened to them saying that they had been taken bymistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.51.What is an advertisement?A. A news item.B. A public announcement in the press, on TV, etc.C. One way to voice one’s view.D. Public opinions.52.The man once thought advertising was ______.A. of little useB. of some useC. practicalD. valuable53.Why did the merchant say “I often advertise and find that it pays me well”?A. Because he knew how to advertise.B. Because he had more money for advertising.C. Because he found it easy to advertise.D. Because he had a friend in the newspaper where he advertised.54.Did the merchant know who had taken the umbrella?A. Sure.B. Not very sure.C. Not at all.D. Probably.55.This is a story about ______.A. a useless advertisementB. how to make an effective advertisementC. how the man lost and found his umbrellaD. what the merchant did for the umbrella ownerPart III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in each of the following passages. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the one that best fits into the passage and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.1I do a lot of management training each year for the Circle K Company. Among the 56__ we discuss in our classes is the 57 of quality employees.“What has caused you to stay _58 enough to become a manager?” I asked. After a while a new manager took the 59 and said slowly, “It was a baseball glove.”Cynthia said she used to 60 a Circle K clerk job as an interim (临时的) one while she looked for something 61 . On her second day behind the counter, she received a(n) 62__ from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He 63 a baseball glove for the little League. She 64__ that as a single mother, money was 65 , and her first check would have to go for paying __66 .When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager asked her to come to her small office and handed her a box. “I overheard you 67 to your son yesterday,” she said, “a nd I know that it is 68 to explain things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie. I know you have to pay bills 69 you can buy gloves. You know we can’t 70__ good people like you as 71 as we would like to; but we do 72 and I want you to know how 73 you are to us.”Cynthia’s story shows vividly that people 74 more how much a(n) 75 cares than how much he pays.56.

It is also one of the __77_ objects to the earth: only the moon and, _78_ , Mars are nearer to us than Venus. Why, then, do we know so little about it?The reason is _79_ the surface of Venus is always covered _80_ a thick layer of clouds. These clouds brilliantly reflect the light _81_ reaches them from the sun and make theplanet __82 very bright to us. We are not sure about _83_ the clouds contain, and we don’t know _84_ the surface of Venus 85 look like.One _86_ suggestion is that the clouds of Venus _87_ be vapors of oil. Our earth clouds _88_ water ---because ourtemperature is just _89_ to turn a little of _90_ seas into vapor. The temperature on Venus, _ 91 _ is four times as hot as boiling water, is quite high enough to _92_ some kinds of oil in to vapors. If Venus had any “seas”, they cannot be seas of water. The water there _93_ away millions of years ago. _94_ they may be “sea” of heavy oil. Some kinds of oil would need to be hotter than Venus before they _95_ boil.76.

Why? Because of the more than 4000 chemicals in tobacco smoke, nicotine is the primary one that acts on the brain, altering people’s moo ds, appetites and alertness in ways they find pleasant and beneficial. Unfortunately, as it is widely known, nicotine has a dark side: it is highly addictive. Once smokers become hooked on it, they must get their fix of it regularly, sometimes several dozen times a day. Cigarette smoke contains 43 known carcinogens, which means that long-term smoking canamount to a death sentence. In the US alone, 420,000 Americans die every year from tobacco-related illnesses.Breaking nicotine addiction is not easy. Each year, nearly 35 million people make a concerted effort to quit smoking. Sadly, less than 7 percent succeed in abstaining for more than a year; most start smoking again within days. So what is nicotine and how does it insinuate itself into the smoker’s bra in and very being?The nicotine found in tobacco is a potent drug and smokers, and even some scientists, say it offers certain benefits. One is enhance performance. One study found that non-smokers given doses of nicotine typed about 5 percent faster than they did without it. To greater or lesser degrees, users also say nicotine helps them to maintain concentration, reduce anxiety, relieve pain, and even dampen their appetites (thus helping in weight control). Unfortunately, nicotine can also produce deleterious effects beyond addiction. At high doses, as are achieved from tobacco products, it can cause high blood pressure, distress in the respiratory and gastrointestinal systems and an increase in susceptibility to seizures and hypothermia.First isolated as a compound in 1828, in its pure form nicotine is a clear liquid that turns brown when burned and smells like tobacco when exposed to air. It is found in several species of plants, including tobacco and, perhaps surprisingly, in tomatoes, potatoes, and eggplant (though in extremely low quantities that are pharmacologically insignificant for humans).As simple as it looks, the cigarette is highly engineered nicotine delivery device. For instance, when tobacco researchers found that much of the nicotine in a cigarette wasn’t released when burned but rather remained chemically bound within the tobacco leaf, they began adding substances such as ammonia to cigarette tobacco to release more nicotine. Ammonia helps keep nicotine in its basic form, which is more readily vaporised by the intense heat of the burning cigarette than the acidic form. Most cigarettes for sale in the US today contain 10 milligrams or more of nicotine. By inhaling smoke from a lighted cigarette, the average smoker takes 1 or2 milligrams of vaporised nicotine per cigarette. Today we know that only a miniscule amount of nicotine is needed to fuel addiction. Research shows that manufacturers would have to cut nicotine levels in a typical cigarette by 95% to forestall its power to addict. When a smoker puffs on a lighted cigarette, smoke, including vaporised nicotine, is drawn into the mouth. The skin and lining of the mouth immediately absorb some nicotine, but the remainder flows straight down into the lungs, where it easily diffuses into the blood vessels lining the lung walls. The blood vessels carry the nicotine to the heart, which then pumps it directly to the brain. While most of the effects a smoker seeks occur in the brain, the heart takes a hit as well.Studies have shown that a smoker’s first cigarette of the day can increase his or her heart rate by 10 to 20 beats a minute. Scientists have found that a smoked substance reaches the brain more quickly than one swallowed, snorted (such as cocaine powder) or even injected. Indeed, a nicotine molecule inhaled in smoke will reach the brain within 10 seconds. The nicotine travels through blood vessels, which branch out into capillaries within the brain. Capillaries normally carry nutrients but they readily accommodate nicotine molecules as well. Once inside the brain, nicotine, like most addictive drugs, triggers the release of chemicals associated with euphoria and pleasure. Just as it moves rapidly from the lungs into the bloodstream, nicotine also easily diffuses through capillary walls. It then migrates to the spaces surrounding neurones –ganglion cells that transmit nerve impulses throughout the nervous system. These impulses are the basis for our thoughts, feelings, and moods. To transmit nerve impulses to its neighbour, a neurone releases chemical messengers known as neurotransmitters. Like nicotine molecules, the neurotransmitters drift into the so-called synaptic space between neurones, ready to latch onto the receiving neurone and thus deliver a chemical “message” that triggers an ele ctrical impulse.The neurotransmitters bind onto receptors on the surface of the recipient neurone. This opens channels in the cell surface through whichenter ions, or charged atoms, of sodium. This generates a current across the membrane of the receiving cell, which completes delivery of the “message”. An accomplished mimic, nicotine competes with the neurotransmitters to bind to the receptors. It wins and, like the vanquished chemical, opens ion channels that let sodium ions into the cell. But there’s a lot more nicotine around than the original transmitter, so a much larger current spreads across the membrane. This bigger current causes increased electrical impulses to travel along certain neurones. With repeated smoking, the neurones adapt to this increased electrical activity, and the smoker becomes dependent on the nicotine.Questions 1 – 71. Although nicotine is probably the well-known chemical in cigarettes, it is not necessarily the one that changes the psyche of the smoker when cigarettes are smoked.2. In spite of the difficulties, according to thetext more than thirty-five million people a yeargive up smoking.3. It has been shown that nicotine in cigarettescan improve people’s abilities to perform someactions more quickly.4. Added ammonia in cigarettes allows smokers to inhale more nicotine.5. Snorted substances reach the brain faster than injected substances.6. Nicotine dilates the blood vessels that carry it around the body.7. Nicotine molecules allow greater electrical charges to pass between neurones.Questions 8 – 108. Cigarette companies would have to cut the nicotine content in cigarettes by _________ to prevent them from being addictive.9. According to the passage, a cigarette can raisea smoker’s heart rate by _________ a minut e.10. In order to transmit nerve impulses to its neighbour, a neurone sends _________ known as neurotransmittersSection B. Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: In this section, there are 3 passages.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 OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.One of the most interesting paradoxes in America today is that Harvard University, the oldest university of higher learning in the United States, is now engaged in a serious discussion about what a university should be, and whether it is measuring up.Should Harvard—or any other university—be an intellectual sanctuary(圣地), apart from the political and social revolution of the age, or should it be a laboratory for experimenting with these political and social revolutions; or even an engine of the revolution?This issue was defined several years ago by Walter LippMann, a famous Harvard graduate: “If the universities are to do their work,” he said, “ they must be independent and they must be disinterested(公正)…They are places to which men can turn for judgments which are fair. Obviously, the moment the universities fall under political control, or under the control of private interests, or the moment they themselves take a hand in political affairs and leading positions in government, their value as independent as disinterested sources of judgment is weakened…”This is part of the discussion that is going on at Harvard today. Another part is the discussion of the militant(激进的) and even many conservative students that a university is the keeper of our ideals and morals, and should not be “disinterested”but active in bringing the nation’s ideals and actions together.Harvard’s men of today seem more troubled and less sure about personal, political and study purposes than they did at the beginning. They are not even clear about how they should discuss and resolve their problem, but they are struggling with them privately, and how they come out is sure to influence American university and political life.11. According to Walter LippMann, a university must _____.A. depend on the governmentB. take active part in political affairs and social issuesC. fall under the control of special and private interestsD. remain independent of our society12. Those who disagree with Walter LippMann argue that a university should_____.A. be engaged in a serious discussion on the role it plays in the societyB. support our old and established universitiesC. take an active part in solving society’s problemsD. not be interested in social revolutions13. In regard to their goals and purposes in life, Harvard men of today are becoming_____.A. more sure about themB. less sure about themC. Class interested in themD. completely lost14. The word “paradoxes” underlined in the first sentence of this passage means______.A. a difficult problemB. an out-of-the-ordinary conditionC. a self-contradiction (矛盾)D. an unusual situation15. According to the writer, the discussion going on at Harvard______.A. will soon be overB. will have no resultC. will influence future life in AmericaD. will cause little influence on other universitiesPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-esteem is the basis of a good mental health.A youngster, who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and become so afraid of failing, that he (or she) won’t try at all.Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong: this is the way children learn. But the criticisms should be balanced with praises. Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is charge of himself; it’s like being in a car without brakes. The parent who says “No” when other parents say “Yes” sends a double message .He is also saying:” I love you, and I am ready to risk your anger, because I don’t want you to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information that they will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy and respect for their personal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted, not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets.If a mother feels that she must read her daughter’s diary to know what is going on, the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The best way to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towels from a hotel will think that it is all right to steal. A youngster who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have difficult time laughing and loving.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something. And if you give him his due, he’ll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.16. According to the passage, parents owe their children the following things except______.A. carsB. privacyC. respectD. information about their body17. The writer things that teenagers arefrightened when they are in charge of themselves because_________.A. they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB. there is no one to guide and discipline themC. they are afraid of being left aloneD. there is no one to ask for help when in trouble18. Which of the following ways is advised for parents to show love to their children?A. Saying” Yes” to everything the children ask forB. Never embracing older childrenC. Refusing something to their childrenD. Never criticizing children19. The word “due” in the last p aragraph means________.A. something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB. reasonable explanation(s) or plan(s)C. what must be given to someone because it is right or owingD. the money to be paid20. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own lives at an early age.B. Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C. Children shouldn’t be corrected because it destroys their self-esteem.D. It is better to compare a youngster to hisbrighter brothers because it makes him try harder.Passage ThreeQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economies. It has been argued that the supply of a good land is limited. To feed a large population, poor land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be contained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more chance of development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to bebuilt unless there is a big demand.One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw material. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, the first concern of government will be to set a limit on the birthrate, whatever the final result may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and building industry grows weaker. Faced with concerns such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.21. The main topic of this article is _______.A. environment protectionB. population growthC. environment and economyD. climate changing22. The passage says that a small population may lead to _______.A. higher production, but a lower average incomeB. lower production and lower average incomeC. higher production and a higher average incomeD. lower production, but a higher average income23. According to the passage, the use of birth control perhaps is good for________.A. a developing countryB. a developed countryC. the whole worldD. each nation with a big population24. In a developed country, people will perhaps be unemployed if the birthrate________.A. goes upB. goes downC. remains stableD. is out of control25. The author is aiming to show that ________.A. humans will run out of their food supply in the futureB. it is necessary for humans to carry out a worldwide plan for birth controlC. different nation have different views of population growthD. we need to take necessary measures to prevent the overuse of natural resourcesSection C Reading in Depth (10%)Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

Each passage is followed by five 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.Passage oneRites of PassageSuddenly there come times when everything is different —you’re somehowanother personSeveral years ago my parents, my wife, my son, and I ate at one of those restaurants where the menu is written on a blackboard. After a wonderful dinner, the waiter set the bill in the middle of the table. That’s when it happened: my father did not reach for the bill.Conversation continued. Finally it dawned on me. I was supposed to pick up the bill! After hundreds of restaurant meal with my parents, after a lifetime of thinking of my father as the one who had the money, it had all changed. I reached for the check, and my view of myself was suddenly altered. I was an adult.Some people mark off their lives in years; I measure mine in small events —in rites of passage. I did not become a young man at a particular age, like 13, but rather when a kid walked into the store where I worked and called me “mister”. He repeated it several times, looking straight at me. The realization hit like a punch: Me! I was suddenly a mister.There have been other milestones. The cops of my youth always seemed big, even huge, and of course they were older than I was. Then one day they were suddenly neither. In fact, some were kids —short kids at that. The day came when I suddenly realized that all the football player in the game I was watching were younger than I was. They were just big kids. With that milestone went the dream that someday, maybe, I too could be a football player. Without ever having reached the hill, I was over it.I never thought that I would fall asleep in front of the television set as my father did. Now it’s what I do best. I never thought that I would go to t he beach and notswim. Yet I spent all of August at the seaside and never once went into the ocean. I never thought that I would like opera, but now the sadness and combination of voice and orchestra appeal to me. I never thought that I would prefer to stay home evenings, but now I find myself passing up parties. I used to think that people who watched birds were strange, but this summer I found myself watching them, and maybe I’ll get a book on the subject. I long for a religious conviction that I never th ought I’d want, and in arguments with my son, I repeat what my father used to say to me. I still lose.One day I bought a house. One day —what a day! — I became a father, and not too long after that I picked up the bill for my own father. I thought then it was a rite of passage for me. But one day, when I was a little older, I realized it was one for him too. Another milestone.1.When the young man picked up the bill and paid it, ____.A)he felt that his father should have paid itB)he was glad to have the chance pay the bill for onceC)he realized he was now an adultD)his father said he would pay it as he usually did so2.The man marked off his life not by the passing years but by _____.A)comparing himself with other peopleB)certain meaningful eventsC)counting the milestones of his lifeD)recalling events of the past3.When the writer was young, _____.A) he looked forward to the day when he would be like his fatherB)it seemed to him that the policeman were big and tallC)he felt bird watching was an interesting hobbyD)he couldn’t understand why his father fell asleep while watching TV4.Why didn’t the writer go swimming while he was at the beach in August?A)Because he liked going to the opera.B)Because he preferred to watch birds.C)Because he was not young anymore.D)Because he did not know how to swim.5.When the writer argued with his son, ____.A)he used the same reasons as his father didB)he always succeeded in winning the argumentsC)he sometimes managed to persuade his son to agree with himD)he seldom succeeded in winningPassage twoThe verb procrastinate comes from the Latin procrastinate, which means to postpone until tomorrow. To procrastinate, then, is to delay doing something until some future time, and a procrastinator is someone who is always putting off what he or she should be doing right now.Those of us who have a tendency toward procrastination know that it is a terrible habit. Every day we tell ourselves that we must start doing things immediately, andeach day we postpone our work, are late for deadlines, and put off keeping our promises to other people. Because we are always in the process of procrastinating, we are also always trying to catch up. We are always doing yesterday's jobs today, and tomorrow we will be doing today's unfinished work.Maybe the way to overcome procrastination is to change our habits gradually. We can start with a daily schedule of the things we want or need to accomplish. But let's be reasonable. We shouldn't crowd the list with too many tasks, and we should be realistic about what we can do. Especially in the beginning we should be lenient(宽大的, 仁慈的) with ourselves. After all, if we get discouraged at the start, we will go right back to our old habits.Finally, if we begin to follow our own schedule for each day, we will stop postponing the chores that face us. Life will become far less complicated and each day will be easier to face. We will undoubtedly feel better about ourselves, too, because we will know that we can overcome our weaknesses and improve ourselves.1. The first paragraph tells us _____ of the word procrastinate.A) the originB) the meaningC) the historyD) both A and B2. A procrastinator is a person who always postpones ___work.A) importantB) unimportantC) important or unimportantD) uninteresting3. The first step suggested by the author to change the habit of procrastinating is ___.A) not to fill our plans with too many tasksB) to make a plan for everyday activitiesC) to list as many tasks as possibleD) not to be reasonable with our plan4. Procrastinators do not live a happy life, because___.A) life is complicated and uneasy for them to faceB) they can't choose what to doC) things often become more difficult the next dayD) they will lose interest in doing things5. The author of the passage tries to tell us ___.A) that to be a procrastinator is not easyB) to be procrastinatorsC) that to be a procrastinator is bad for oneselfD) that being a procrastinator is good for othersPassage threeA good reader is one who can read beyond the lines, seeing ideas implied through the words, and one who can bridge the gap between the obvious and the suggested, thus obtaining much more information. Let's look at the following sentence:JOHN HENDERSON WAS DRIVING HOME LATE LAST NIGHT FROM AN EXHAUSTING BUSINESS TRIP.As you might have realized, this is the opening sentence of a story. It tells the reader whom the story is about -- John Henderson, and when the event takes place -- late one night, if we read carefully and thoughtfully we can also infer from this sentence that1. John Henderson may be a businessman because he has just finished a "business trip"2. John Henderson must be very tired because the trip is "exhausting"3. John Henderson must be very eager to get home because he is driving "late" at night right after this exhausting trip.Making inferences while reading will always help us achieve a better comprehension. But we should keep in mind that inferences must be made with care and supported by evidence. In order to make reasonable inferences we should1. read and think beyond the primed words;2. analyze the information given in the text;3. determine the author's reason for his choice of words.1. According to the author, a good reader___.A) can read between the linesB) should have a large vocabularyC) knows enough grammar rulesD) must have a good knowledge of the author2. From the quoted sentence, you know John Henderson was most likely___.A) a sellerB) a man on businessC) a driverD) a traveler3. From the quoted sentence, you know John Henderson had a ___.A) tired tripB) bored tripC) boring tripD) tiring trip4. When the author asks us to make inferences while reading, he intends to say___.A) make guessesB) have imaginationsC) do translationsD) reach conclusions5. The best topic of the passage is ____.A) Reading SkillsB) Try to Be a Good ReaderC) Reading Is ImportantD) Reading Is ThinkingPassage fourMan's first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it.(The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature — no living thing was ever created with wheels.) How, then, did man come to invent the wheel?Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the dead body of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected at their centers by a strong stick. This would roll along just as the logs did yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being, and with them the first carts.1. The wheel is important because _______.A. it was man's first real inventionB. all transportation depends on itC. every machine depends on itD. both B and C2. The wheel is described as _______.A. simpleB. complicatedC. strangeD. light3. It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel because ______.A. it led to many other inventionsB. man had no use for it thenC. there were no wheels in natureD. it was very complicated4. This passage says that the first wheel might have been a _______.A. round piece of stoneB. heavy logC. piece of metalD. slice of log5. The idea of making wheels might have come from ______.A. chasing an animalB. watching a rolling trunkC. watching running animalsD. rolling the dead body of an animal on logsPart III ClozeHave you 1)_____ asked yourself why children go to school? You will probably say that they go 2)_____ their own language and other languages, arithmetic, history, science and 3)_____ subjects. That is quite true; but why do they learn these things?And are these things 4)_____ that they learn at school?We 5)____ our children to school to 6)_____ them for the time 7)_____ they will be big and will have to work 8)_____ themselves.

The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories(卡路里) you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight.When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or a simple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.Keep busy! This way you will not be tempted to go off the diet. Make full use of opportunities to exercise. Try walking instead of riding whenever possible. Happy dieting!1. What is the main idea of the passage?A) How to diet. B) Why we should diet.C) What we should diet. D) Where we should diet.2. While dieting you should ________.A) choose fried foods B) choose low-calorie foodC) choose snack as hamburger in McDonalds D) talk to your doctor3. When you have lost the weight you wish, you can ________.A) have some more simple items in your diet B) eat more and more foods you likeC) stop dieting D) tell the doctor what you've done4. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A) While dieting, you should ask the doctor so that you can lose your weight quickly.B) Plan meals means to have some foods you like and take them as your daily eating habits.C) When you have lost your weight, you can have some coffee and tea without sugar or cream.D) As you are dieting, don't forget exercise5. If you want to start a weight control program, you should ________.A) ask your doctor B) plan meals and choose low-calorie foodsC) do some exercise D) all of the abovePassage twoA house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called “take a mortgage (抵押)." The bank usually lends money or gives a mortgae for twenty-five years. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $ 50 000. In other words, they will have a $ 50 000 mortgage.How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank. The bank will research you financial (金融的) history and decide if they think you are a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have, what kind of salary you make, and how long you have had the job. They will also want to know how much money you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the-price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment.6. What does a house mean in the United States?A) It is a dream which many people can hardly realize.B) It is so expensive that many people cannot really buy them.C) It is the most important property that many people try to buy.D) It doesn't belong to people if they can't borrow money from the bank.7. If American people borrow money from the bank for 25 years, this means that the person who borrowsA) has twenty-five years to pay back the moneyB) has more than twenty-five years to pay back the moneyC) has less than twenty-five years to pay back the moneyD) has about twenty-five years to pay back the money8. What does“down payment" refer to in the passage?A) Money borrowed from a bank as a mortgage.B) Money paid to a bank before the mortgages is given.C) Interest received by a person who borrows money as the mortgages.D) Interest charged by a bank on a mortgage.9. Which is not one of the things researched by a bank?A) How much money the borrower owns. B) What salary the borrower makes.C) What kind of job the borrower has. D) What kind of house the borrower lives in.10. The most suitable title for this passage would be _______.A) How to Save Money on the House B) How to Borrow Money from a BankC) How to Take a Mortgage D) How to Buy a House四、汉译英(本大题共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)1.我的观点和你的差不多。

(阅读理解题)The comfort zone is our living, work, and social environments that we have grown accustomed to. It determines the type of friends we make or people we associate with. It determines a life style we accept or reject.Young people are very adaptable; they can adjust to changing comfort zones with ease. They can socialize with homeless people in the morning and be equally at ease at a formal banquet in the evening. As we age, the ability to adapt towide-ranging comfort zones becomes more difficult. Social prejudice narrows the comfort zone range. The comfort zone can be a decision making tool.Comfort zones are directly related to our dreams or goals, which is associated with self-fulfilling prophecy(预言). In order to grow and change, we must first be discontent with our current comfort zone. We must realize that all meaningful and lasting changes occur first in daydreaming and then they work their way into reality. The more clearly and vividly we fantasize our dream, the stronger and more real the pictures on the subconscious level will become. Once our subconscious accepts this image and its expectation, it will go to work, searching for a way to bring it into reality. If we feel that these things are too good for us, we will find ways to fail. If, however, we intentionally imagine the change we want, build an expectation of the change mentally and emotionally, and we will find ways to acquire dream and, when mentally ready, it will arrive faster than we ever thought possible.For some people, problems, suffering, poverty, bad breaks are their comfort zone. They find comfort in finding fault and complaining about their misfortune. Thesame is true for businesses. Management and workers have grown used to seeing things go wrong and expect them too. Management finds comfort in finding fault with workers and workers and vice versa.Note: If the comfort zone we are seeking is beyond our current income, then, we need to develop a service that has greater value than our current one. Money, power and influence are not goals; they are rewards ONLY for personal achievement.(1). (单选题) As one grows older, ______.

(阅读理解题)Passage 2Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.The faces of elderly, happily-married people sometimes resemble each other. Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple provided four photographs—one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another randomgrouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgements were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples. Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. “Another possible reason,” he says, “is the common experience of the couples.”There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.(1). (单选题) Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of __________.

Reading Comprehension. (2 point for each, altogether 30 points) Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1At most institutions in America students may purchase meals in cafeterias,dining rooms,or snack bars that are either owned and operated by the institution or concessions (出让) that are permitted to operate on the premises under a contractual(契约的)arrangement. Meals served in cafeterias or dining rooms that are associated with college dormitories are prepared for the dormitory residents and must meet certain government nutritional(营养的)standards as well as satisfy local (state or municipal)sanitary(卫生)requirements. The menus are more or less varied,depending on the imagination and resourcefulness of the management,the taste or demands of the student residents,and many other factors. These dining facilities are usually open only during specified meal hours each day.In contrast to this,other campus eating establishments that charge"by the meal" may be open all day and may cater to the taste of a particular clientele (students,faculty and staff,guests of the institution,etc.). Both the cost of a meal and the choice of served food will vary according to the clientele. Snack bars and food vending machines(自动售货机)provide light meals or snacks throughout the day and often remain open until late at night.31. The places where students may have their meals are_______.[A] dining rooms [B]cafeterias[C]snack bars [D] A,B and C.32. Meals served in cafeterias or dining rooms are prepared for_______.[A] dormitory residents[B] faculty members[C] all the students[D] not mentioned33. Meals must come to_______.[A] certain government nutritional standards[B] local sanitary requirements[C] under a contractual arrangement[D] A and B34. Other campus eating establishments may be open_______.[A]during specified meal hours [B]all day[C]all day and night [D] A and B.35. This passage mainly tells us about_______.[A] America colleges[B] American students[C] college food service in America[D] How to run a cafeteriaPassage 2Some students at the Open University left school 20 years ago. Others are younger but all must be at least 21 years old. This is one example of how the Open University is different from all other universities. Its students must either work full-time or be at home all day. For instance,mothers of families do not have to pass any examinations before they are accepted as students. This is why the university is called“open”. The university was started in order to help a known group--people who missed having a university education when they were young.The first name for the Open University was“The University of the air”. The idea was to teach “on the air”,in other words on radio and television. Most of the teaching is done like this. Radio and television have brought the classroom into people's homes. But this,on its own,is not enough for a university education. The Open University student also receives advice at one of 283 study centres in the country. 36 weeks of the year he or she has to send written work to a "tutor",the person who guides his or her studies. The student must also spend 3 weeks every summer as a full-time student. Tutors and students meet and study together,as in other universities. At the end of the Open University's first year,the results were good,3 out of every 4 students passed their examinations. If they do this every year,they will finish their studies in 4 or 5 years.36. The purpose of the Open University is to_______.[A] help the young to go to school[B] help those who had missed the chance to study when they were young[C] help those who want to study in the university[D] help those who do housework37. "On the air" means_______.[A]on radio and TV [B]on the flight[C]on the show [D]on the board.38. The students of the Open University have their education_______.[A] both at home and at some study centers[B] with their written work only[C] through many kinds of examinations[D] with the help of their family friends39. "Tutor" in the second paragraph means_______.[A] the person who checks the student's work at home[B] the person who is in charge of the various kinds of exams[C] the person who is to help the students get through the exam[D] the person who inspects the students' studies40. Which of the following is implied but not stated?_______.[A] The Open University has become popular all over the world.[B] Every country needs such a university.[C] Everyone wants to go to such a university.[D] The Open University really benefits a lot those who once lost the chance to have university education.Passage 3The emergency room or “out-patient clinic” of a hospital is staffed and equipped to treat both emergencies and less serious illnesses or injuries. The fees are reasonable but will range from 30 to several hundred dollars depending on the seriousness of the illness or injury.A physician who sees a patient in the doctor's office may charge 30 to 70 for the initial visit,and 20 to 30 for subsequent (以后的) office calls. X-ray,laboratory,and prescription charges will be add to the cost of treatment.If minor surgery is necessary,the student should first determine whether it can be accomplished in the doctor's office to avoid hospitalization,an expensive and time-consuming experience. It is also advisable for the student to discuss the cost of any surgery with the doctor,in order to prepare for it financially.Necessary surgery is worth the cost,regardless of the amount,but unnecessary or "elective" surgery can upset the student's budget and schedule needlessly.41、According to the passage,which of the following cannot usually be treated at the“out-patient clinic”?[A] Emergencies[B] Minor Diseases[C] Slight Injuries[D] Serious Illnesses42. The word “range”in the second sentence of the first paragraph may best be replaced by________.[A] “include”[B] “vary”[C] “increase”[D] “divide”43. For the first office call,a physician may charge his patient_______.[A] 10 [B] 20[C] 50 [D] 20044. According to the passage,_______is an expensive and time-consuming experience.[A] having a minor surgery[B] visiting a doctor in his office[C] staying in a hospital for treatment[D] preparing for any surgery45. This passage is most probably written for_______.[A] college students[B] any kind of patients[C] doctors in the emergency room[D] physicians who overcharge patientsIV. Blanking filling.
