them there are4choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice,and write it in the brackets“【】”.Passage1Procrastination(犹豫不决)is a disease of the mind.A scientific study in recent years has shown that it is a close relative of sadness and attention disorder;that procrastinators tend to be the result of low self-confidence and are likely to experience anxiety.The research has shown,what is more,that the illness has become quite common.Susan Robert,a behavioral psychologist who has written a book called Living With Procrastination,says that about a quarter of the adult population of the United States and Canada report having serious problems with procrastination.“when we say ‘serious’we mean people for whom procrastination causes great discomfort and suffering.We’ve found that such people are more troubled by daily life than others, that possibility of anxiety is much higher among them than in the rest of the population.”In a society driven by achievement,it is little wonder that not being able to work at full steam will bring people sadness.Surely,in the land of opportunity,this anxiety has produced an industry of experts offering solutions.Many books and specialist solutions have appeared.In exchange for$19.95,Dr.Jerome Murray will send out an audio-cassette called“Protect your future from the thief of procrastination.”Dr. Murray promises that if you follow his step-by-step rules you will be empowered to “turn self-defeat into self-realization”.“Since the start of the1990s,procrastination has been taken more and more seriously,”said Dr.Roberts,who has been treating patients troubled by the condition for more than20years.“It is now recognized as a true mental health problem and is being seen more as a psychological problem andless as a moral issue.”41.What is the main topic of this passage?A.Don’t hesitate to give up smoking.B.Don’t regard depression as not important.C.Delay can be a sign of illness.D.Don’t work too hard to stay healthy.42．Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A.Procrastination is a disease of the mind.B.Procrastination is likely to cause a great discomfort and suffering.C.Procrastination is not considered as a psychological problem but a moral issue.D.Dr.Jerome Murray provides some ways to get rid of procrastination.43.How does the author look at procrastination?A.It is something like running.B.It is a disease of mind.C.It is not a permitted act.D.It is not full of stress.44.These are the signs of procrastination except______________.A.discomfort C.pleasureB.suffering D.sadness45.What’s the main idea of Dr.Murray’s cassette“Protect your future from the thiefof procrastination”?A.Turn defeat to self-realization.B.Turn depression into enthusiasm.C.Procrastination has been taken more and more seriously.D.Turn self-defeat into self-realization.Passage2Parrots are becoming one of the most popular pets in America and for good reason. The parrot is an extraordinary bird that can be taught to talk,can be easily cared for, and can create a lively atmosphere anywhere.With the help of an energetic parrot owner,a parrot can develop an enormous vocabulary.In addition,a parrot can be trained to say“Pretty boy”or“Polly wants a cracker,”and it also can learn to whistle or sing.No matter what an owner decides to teach a bird,training a parrot takes much patience,but the reward is a stream of chatter.Another reason for the parrot’s popularity is that this pet does not require much care.For example,even a spoiled parrot does not need a house-sitter for the purpose of daily walks and daily feeding.In fact,a parrot owner may leave his or her pet with enough food for five days and have no fear that the parrot will overeat.Still another advantage of owning a parrot is its inexpensive food,including seeds,nuts,corn,and grain－along with an apple,banana,or carrot.Perhaps the most likely reason the parrot is becoming such a well-liked pet is that it is a combination of tameness and wildness. Because the parrot can live in almost any environment,it makes a fine,tamecompanion for many people.In addition,because it can be easily trained,it is a delightful performer.At the same time,its colorful feathers give it an air of the mystery of the parrot’s native home,the jungle.Thus,the parrot,once a highly valued gift presented to kings and noble families,is now appreciated by a growing number of people.46．A parrot can be trained to do all the following but________.A．talkB．help its ownerC．singD．create a lively atmosphere47．Which of the following is not a reason for the easy raising of the parrot?A．It eats very little.B．Its food is inexpensiveC．It does not need a house-sitter.D．It does not require daily walks as dogs do.48．The word“tameness”in the passage means______.A．the quality of being brave or unafraidB．the quality of being kind or warm-heartedC．the quality of being uncontrolled or fierceD．the quality of being gentle or trained49.The word“jungle”probably means______.A．boundless desert with very little plant lifeB．large apartment building with pleasing surroundingsC．wild land overgrown with thick bushes and treesD．snow-covered mountain top in very cold areas50.The writer______.A．likes the parrotB．dislikes the parrotC．does not like nor dislike the parrotD．values the parrot highlyPassage3In my long life I have seen many changes in our habits and customs and conditions in general.I think that you might be interested if I told you some of them.The world I entered at the age of eighteen when I became a medical student was a world that knew nothing of such advanced things as planes,films,radios or telephones.It was a very cheap world.Prices were stable.When I entered St.Thomas’hospital I rent a set of rooms in Vincent square for which I paid18shillings a week. My landlady provided me with a very good breakfast before I went to the hospital and a dinner when I came back at half past six.I only had to pay for the breakfasts and dinners twelve shillings a week.For four-pence I lunched at St.Thomas’on bread and butter and a glass of milk.I was able to live very well,pay my fees,buy my necessary instruments,clothe myself,and have a lot of fun on fourteen pounds a month.And I could always pawn my microscope for three pounds.I spent five years at St.Thomas’hospital.I was a bad student,for my heart,as you might have guessed,was not in it.I wanted,I had always wanted to be a writer,and in the evenings,after my dinner,I wrote and read.Before long,I wrote a novel called “Liza of Lambeth”,which I sent to a publisher and was accepted.It came out during my last year at the hospital and it was successful.It was of course an accident,but I didn’t know that.I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession;so,three days after I graduated from the school of medicine,I left for Spain to write another book,I did not realize,at that time,that I was taking a great risk.51.The text is a talk given by the writer when____.A.he was18B.his first novel was publishedC.he graduated from the school of medicineD.he was at an advanced age52.The writer graduated from the school of medicine when he was____.A.18 C.23B.28 D.3053.“And I

with three poundsD.lend his microscope for three pounds54.In the sentence“I was able to live very well,pay my fees,buy my necessary instruments,clothe myself...”,the word“clothe”means____.A.wear clothesB.make clothes forC.wash clothes forD.buy clothes for55.The writer wanted to be a writer because____.A.he liked to take risksB.he found it easier to make a living by writingC.he was interesting in writingD.he could not study medicine wellPassage4How often one hears children wishing they were grown up,and old people wishing they were young again.Each age has its pleasures and its pains,and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.Youth is a time when there are few tasks to make life difficult.If a child has good parents,he is fed,looked after and loved whatever he may do.It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.In addition,life is always presenting new things to the child---things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known.But a child has his pains:he is not so free to do what he wishes to do;he is continually being told not to do things,or being punished for what he has done wrong.When the young man starts to earn his own living,he can no longer expect others to pay for his food,his clothes,and his room,but has to work if he wants tolive comfortably.If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child,he will go hungry.And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents,he may go hungry.And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents,he may go to prison.If,however,he works hard,keeps out of trouble and has good health,he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.56．People can experience happiness if they___.A.always thinks of the past and regret itB.value the presentC.are no longer youngD.become old and have much experience57．When people were young,they used to___.A.be in charge of many businessesB.have few things to think about and take
