Cell PhonesBelieve it or not, cell phones have been around for over a quarter of a century. The first commercial (商业的) cell phone system was developed by the Japanese in 1979. But cell phones have changed a lot since that time. The early cell phones were big and heavy but they have been developed into small and light palm-sized models. There have been huge developments in their functions, too. We have had cell forwarding, text messaging, answering services and hands-free use for years, but now there are countless new uses, such as instant access to the internet and receiving and sending photos.Cell phones have become very common in our lives; recent statistics suggest as many as one in three people on the planet now have a cell phone, and most of them say they can’t live without one. Cell phones are used in every area of our lives and have become a necessary tool, used for essential arrangements, social contact and business. They have made it easier to call for help on the highway. They have made it possible to keep in touch with people” on the move” when people are traveling.Cell phones have made communication easier and have reduced the need for family arguments. We can use cell phones to let our family know we’ll be late or if there’s a change of plan or an emergency(紧急情况)。

Table mannersPeople who go to a formal western dinner party for the first time may be surprised by the table manners in western culture. Knowing them will help you make a good impression. Having good table manners means knowing, for example, how to use knives and forks, when to drink a toast and how to behave at the table. Beside your napkin(餐巾)，you will find a small bread roll and three glasses----one for white wine, one for red wine, and one for water. There are two pairs of knives and forks on the table, forks on the left and knives on the right of the plate. When you see two spoons(汤匙)，the big one is for the soup and the small one for the dessert. The knife and fork that are closest to your plate are a little bit bigger than ones beside them. When you sit down at the table, you can take your napkin, unfold it and put it on your lap(膝盖)。

The package is divided into two buckets—base salary and bonus.The bonus is tied to graduation rates,affordability,student achievement,philanthropic support,faculty excellence,and strategic program initiatives.In establishing this bonus system,Daniels married traditional notions of academic quality—as measured by excellence in faculty,programs and resources—with an equal emphasis on effective outcomes and price controls:graduation rates,affordability,and student achievement.(6)In so doing,Daniels has demonstrated his belief that there is common ground to be found between the university and government.The choice is not quality or effectiveness,not excellence or affordability;the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game in which one side wins and the other loses.Rather,he believes it is possible to balance the seemingly conflicting goals of government and higher education.(7)Daniels is not the first president to have his salary tied to achieving institutional goals,but he is probably the most visible.Moreover,although Daniels is renouncing involvement in partisan politics as he enters the Purdue presidency,he is a former Republican governor and party leader known as a frugal fiscal conservative.Historically,the divisions have been greater between Republicans and the academy than has been the case with Democrats.In a very real sense,what Daniels has chosen to do is somewhat akin to Nixon going to China.He has undertaken an experiment to be closely watched.If successful,he will have established a potential model for the country.(8)Typically,presidents reserve such powerful statements for their inaugural addresses.Though such addresses are sincere in intent—I can vouch for that,as someone who has given two and listened to many more—they are generally aspirational;they articulate hopes and dreams for what an institution can become.Daniels has already done something very different. He is putting himself on the line in a very public fashion.Year after year his salary will be determined by his success.And perhaps even more importantly,his success or failure will be public when his board announces the size and rationale for his bonus.(9)It’s a bold step—and Governor Daniels should be applauded for taking it.II.In this section,there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet.(20points,2points for each)16.The word“rift”in Paragraph1means______A.gapB.dilemmaC.painD.headache17.As to higher education,the government is more and more concerned about ______.A.costs and productivityB.accountabilityC.costs and accessD.graduation rates18.Which of the following statements is true about Daniels’salary package?A.He applies for salary inflation.B.The salary should be more than bonus.C.The salary should be based on his achievement.D.His salary package is the smallest among university presidents.19.The word“married”in Paragraph5means______A.meltedbinedC.arrangedD.acknowledged20.According to the author,the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game because______.A.neither government nor higher education can winB.higher education can achieve both quality and effectivenessC.excellence can only be attained at the cost of affordabilityernment and higher education can never reach agreement21.Nixon’s visit to China is mentioned______.A.to highlight Daniels’pioneering workB.to extol Nixon’s contribution to the countryC.to point out the division between Republicans and DemocratsD.to show the importance of the relationship between the two nations22.The word“articulate”in Paragraph8means______.A.designB.cultivateC.fosterD.express23.It can be inferred from Paragraph8that the author is probably______.A.a farmerB.a freelancerC.a company employeeD.a president of an organization24.The author’s attitude towards Daniels’reformation is______.A.expectantB.indifferentC.negativeD.critical25.Which of the following is most appropriate as a title for this passage?A.A Hard TimeB.A Loyal PresidentC.A Powerful StatementD.A Promising Industry非选择题部分注意事项：用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能答在试题卷上。

They had no beasts of burden, wheeled vehicles, or roads. People traveled 19 and carried their infants and belongings strapped to their backs or heads. Loads too heavy for one person to carry were strapped to a pole and carried by two people. 20 , people learned that they could drag loads along the ground on sledges. During late prehistoric times, people began to build sledges with runners. When people developed agriculture and began to establish 21 settlements, trade between settlements started to develop, which created a need for better 22 of transportation. The donkey and the ox, which had been tamed for food products and farm work, helped 23 this need. The use of donkeys and oxen as beasts of burden enabled people to 24 heavier loads than they could before. People also began to develop water transportation during prehistoric times. They built rafts of such 25 as logs or reeds. Later, people learned 26 to make dugouts and canoes. People paddled these early craft with their hands or propelled them with paddles or 27 .

(2 points each, 20 points in all) Passage One If you are searching for a job, you have perhaps read lots of local newspapers with job vacancies, and certainly even visited an employment agency or firm to help you get the job of your dreams. Job hunting is not an easy task and one needs to be informed on how to find numerous advertisements of vacancies that suit your professional needs. There are a number of useful tips on how to write unique and good curriculum vitae (CV)(简历) documents that all job seekers should like. All this information can be obtained at no cost from most job sites. Today most recruitment companies advertise their vacancies on the job websites and this provides a free and accessible way to find thousands of jobs and one can feasibly apply for jobs within a very short time. Most recruitment portals (门户站) allow you to keep your CV with them and send it automatically to the human resources for consideration any time you apply for a job. This service also allows you to up-date your CV at any time and companies looking for employees will also be able to view your employment and qualification details and send you an application invitation without the need of your having to look for them. If you are looking for a job, you can start with the most popular and trusted sites that will give you a wide range of choices to select from. E-mail alerts can save you a lot of energy and time but one needs to specify the type of notifications she/he needs to receive depending on one’s career goals. You should also need to be keen on the deadline because most sites do not remove the list of jobs, whose deadline has already passed. In case the deadline is not indicated you can e-mail or call the employer to check the details. Before applying for a job it is advisable to read the terms and conditions of recruitment well to see whether you qualify for the position because it is pointless to apply for a post of which you do not meet the requirements. You need to expand your job search by browsing related categories or you can look for a job using alternative job titles in other areas, for instance, outside your locality, since an opportunity can present itself at the least expected place. Business sites are also becoming very popular and help many job seekers to create and develop relationships that will help them find a job. There are numerous job sites available but one needs to be very careful. There are people who use these sites to cheat innocent employment seekers. These sites also offer useful information and tips on how to find a job, write a CV, apply for a vacancy as well as tips on interviews. Some sites provide you with career coaches to give you all the information you need on jobs and can also help you find the right job that is in line with your career or profession. 41. What kind of service do most recruitment portals offer? A. They keep job seekers’ CVs. B. They publish job seekers’ CVs. C. They up-date CVs for job seekers. D. They prepare CVs for job seekers. 42.Which of the following can best explain the word “feasibly” in Paragraph 2?A. Directly.B. Effortlessly.C. Possibly.D. Immediately. 43. Which of the following can help you avoid wasting time on a job which does not exist?A. To ask for details.B. To check the deadline.0 0 C . T o i n q u i r e a b o u t p a y m e n t s . D .
