Reading ComprehensionEach of the passages below is followed by some questions. For each question there are four answers marked A, B, C and D. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Passage 1There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows howshort-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, advanced, and native-speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.21. Henning made the experiment in order to study .A. how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB. how students learn English vocabularyC. how to develop students’ ability in EnglishD. how long information in short-term memory is kept2 2. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.D. Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.2 3. From Henning’s results we can see that .A. beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB. advanced students remember words by their meaningC. it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning2 4. The word ―subject‖ in the passage means .A. the college course the students takeB. the theme of the listening materialC. a branch of knowledge studiedD. the student experimented on25. The passage centers on .A. memoryB. two kinds of memoryC. short-term memoryD. an experiment on studentsPassage 2How men first learned to invent words is unknown: in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented some sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their association – the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience, and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears.26. According to the passage, the origin of language is __________.A. a matter that is hiddenB. a question difficult to answerC. a problem not yet solvedD. a legend handed down from the past27. The real power of words exists in their __________.A. propertiesB. formsC. characteristicsD. representative function28. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Animals have no feelings, so they needn’t have words.B. Men invented certain signs to represent their sounds.C. We learn words through experience and study.D. The meaning of a word keeps changing.29. We can learn from the passage that words are __________.A. letters written downB. signsC. simply soundsD. sounds or letters30. In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able to _____________.A. choose words carefullyB. make excellent speechC. use beautiful wordsD. cause us to have feelingsPassage 3Almost two million British children are suffering ill-health and are not growing as well as they could because of poor food quality and variety. A report called ―The Hunger Within‖ complains about the British government’s decision to stop providing inexpe nsive school meals and free milk for school children. This decision has caused much suffering among the children of Britain.Many children are below the weight and height they should be. In some poor places in Britain, there is a lack of iron in what many of the children regularly eat. Children’s emotional, academi c and physical developments have been badly affected as a result.Of particular concern is the increase of lung disease. This disease spreads easily among those who have weakened health due to po or, unbalanced food. In the 1960’s, lung disease was conside red a childhood disease easy to put an end to, provided all children were able to have healthy, well-balanced, regular meals. Disappointingly, it appears to be on the increase in certain population groups in Britain. This is especially a concern at a time when the British economy is experiencing healthy growth. Despite an increase in wealth of the country as a whole, some children are still suffering.31.What has caused problems among British children?A.The food prices that keep going up.B.The government’s decision concerning food distribution.C.The growing child population.D.The declining milk production.32.According to the passage, what effects do low levels of iron in food have?A.Children can improve their school work.B.Children may grow too fast.C.Children’s growth can slow down.D.Children will eat more slowly.33.How can people put an end to lung disease?A.By curing all children with the disease.B.By increasing the variety of food.C.By making more new medicines.D.By providing children with better food.34.It is interesting that, despite a healthy economy, _____.A.some rich people are still sufferingB.all British children are falling illC.the health of the nation’s children is not improvingD.the health of the nation as a whole is at risk35.What does the author think of the health condition of British children?A.It is becoming poorer and deserves public attention.B.It is not as bad as reported in ―The Hunger Within‖.C.British children enjoy better health than children in other countries.D.British children are not as healthy as children in other European countries.Passage 4Loch Ness（尼斯湖）is a lake resulting from a movement in the earth’s crust. It is the largest body of fresh water in Britain. There is more water in Loch Ness than all the other lakes in England, Scotland and Wales put together.Because of the great amount of water in the loch a thermocline（温跃层）lies at around 100 feet down in the loch. The top 100 feet of water changes temperature depending on the weather conditions but below the thermocline the temperature never changes from 44 degrees Fahrenheit. So, as the surface water cools in winter and nears freezing point, it sinks and is replaced by warmer water from below. This can cause the loch to steam on very cold days. In fact it has been estimated that the heat given off by the loch in winter is the equivalent to burning two million tons of coal.It is said that the residents around the loch used to tell their children stories of the kelpie（马形水鬼）to keep them away from the dark dangerous waters of the loch. The story is of a horrible beast who lived in the loch and when hungry would leave its watery home and change itself into a beautiful horse which would wait for some unlucky traveler to climb on its back. Then it would jump straight into the loch and feed on its victim.Most people think that the Loch Ness monster first appeared in the 1930’s and it is certain from this time that the loch became famous. However, sightings of something unusual in the loch date back much further than this.36. Loch Ness was caused by ____________.A. an active volcanoB. a movement of the outer layer of the earth’s surfaceC. earthquakeD. atomic bombs37. The thermocline lies at around 100 feet down in the loch because ____________.A. the water in the loch is freshB. the loch is the largest body of fresh water in BritainC. the amount of water in the loch is largeD. the temperature in Britain is very low38. On very cold days, the steam on the loch is caused by ____________.A. the rising of warmer water from the deeper part of the lochB. the burning of tons of coalC. the cold air on the surface of the lochD. the change of large amounts of fresh water to seawater39. The stories of the kelpie would ____________.A. discourage children from playing near the lochB. keep children away from horsesC. make children believe that a horrible beast can change to a horseD. make the loch famous40. Which of the following statements is true?A. Loch Ness is the largest body of seawater in Britain.B. The total amount of fresh water in all other lakes in Britain is less than that in the Loch.C. The temperature of the water in the loch is 44 degrees Fahrenheit all year round.D. People have seen unusual things in the loch since the 1930’s.III.

Reading Comprehension. (2 points for each, altogether 20 points) Directions: There are 2 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 One Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can zcharge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages. Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equa l”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.31. There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may .[A]cause a shortage of apartments[B]worry those who rent apartments as homes[C]increase the profits of landlords[D]encourage landlords to invest in building apartment32. According to the critics, rent control[A]will always benefit those who rent apartments[B]is unnecessary[C]will bring negative effects in the long run[D]is necessary under all circumstances33. The problem of unemployment will arise[A]if the minimum wage is set too high[B]if the minimum wage is set too low[C]if the workers are unskilled[D]if the maximum wage is set34. The passage tells u s[A]the relationship between supply and demand[B]the possible results of government controls[C]the necessity of government controlz[D]the urgency of getting rid of government controls35. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A]The results of economic decisions can not always be predicted.[B]Minimum wage can not always protect employees.[C]Economic theory can predict the results of economic decisions if other factors are not changing.[D]Economic decisions should not be based on economic theory.Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on street. No man who thought of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Should leave one in your lap, or on the table?The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is , if a dinner invitation is for 7 o'clock , the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable-----especially if they are your guests. When the food was served , one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife . The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.36. If one has accepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is late for the dinner?[A]. He should find an excuse[B]. He should ask for excuse.[C]. He should say sorry[D].He should telephone to explain his being late.37."It would have been bad manners to make his guests feel foolish or uncomfortable." "Bad manners " means ________.[A] ugly[B] dishonest[C] impolite [D] shameful38. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage? .[A] Social Customs and Customs [B] Social Life[C] American and British Customs [D] Promptness Is Important39. According to the text, the best host_______.[A]. tries his best to make his guests feel comfortable[B]. makes his guests feel excited[C]. tries to avoid being naughty to his guests[D]. tries to avoid being foolishz40.The author of this article may agree with which of the following?[A]. The guest who ate his peas with a knife[B]. The other guests who were amused or shocked[C].The host who picked up his knife and began eating in the same way[D]. None of the aboveIII.

All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.11.The origin of language is _________.A.a legend handed down from the pastB.a matter that is hidden or secretC.a question difficult to answerD.a problem not yet solved答案：D12.What is true about words?A.They are used to express feelings only.B.They can not be written down.C.They are simply sounds.D.They are mysterious.答案：C13.The real power of words consists in their ______.A.propertiesB.characteristicsC.peculiarityD.representative function答案：D14.By “association” in the last paragraph, the author means ______.A.a special qualityB.a joining of ideas in the mindC.an appearance which is puzzlingD.a strange feature答案：B15.Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?A.He is no more than a master of words.B.He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C.He can move men to tears.D.His style is always charming.答案：A三、词汇与语法16.The Japanese, ______ average, live much longer than the Europeans.A.withB.inC.toD.on答案：D17.Look!

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 1I’ve been writing for most of my life. Th e book Writing without Teachers introduced me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously. The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much we might like to think so.Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting (稍纵即逝的) thought, the thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to create first and then criticize if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you write is what Elbow calls “free writing”. In free writing, the objective is to get words down on paper non-stop, usually for 15-20 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no criticizing. The goal is to get the words flowing. As the words begin to flow, the ideas will come from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your screen.Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will believe that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at the pagesas the deadline draws near.Instead of staring at a blank start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway through you available time, stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to finished product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will most likely be far better than your current practices.41. When the author says the creative mind and the critical mind “cannot work in parallel” (Line 4, Para. 1) in the writing process, he means ________.[A] no one can be both creative and critical[B] they cannot be regarded as equally important[C] they are in constant conflict with each other[D] one cannot use them at the same time42. What prevents people from writing on is ________.[A] putting their ideas in raw form[B] attempting to edit as they write[C] ignoring grammatical soundness[D] trying to capture fleeting thoughts43. What is the chief objective of the first stage of writing?[A] To organize one’s thoughts logically.[B] To choose an appropriate topic.[C] To get one’s ideas down.[D] To collect raw materials.44. One common concern of writers about “free writing” is that ________.[A] it overstresses the role of the creative mind[B] it takes too much time to edit afterwards[C] it may bring about too much criticism[D] it does not help them to think clearly45. In what way does the critical mind help the writer in the writing process?[A] It refines his writing into better shape.[B] It helps him to come up with new ideas.[C] It saves the writing time available to him.[D] It allows him to sit on the side and observe.Passage 2Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion (拥挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car’s movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.46.One significant improvement in the future car will probably be __________.[A] its power source [B] its driving system[C] its monitoring system [D] its seating capacity47. What is the author’s main concern?[A] How to render automobiles pollution-free.[B] How to make smaller and safer automobiles.[C] How to solve the problem of traffic jams.[D] How to develop an automated subway system.48. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?[A] A rail. [B] An engine.[C] A retractable arm. [D] A computer controller.49. In an automated highway system, all the driver needs to do is __________.[A] keep in the right lane[B] wait to arrive at his destination[C] keep in constant touch with the computer center[D] inform the system of his destination by phone50. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of autos?[A] Enthusiastic. [B] Pessimistic. [C] Optimistic. [D] Cautious.Passage 3The rate of population growth is fastest in underdeveloped countries. In these countries a high birthrate is accompanied by a lowered death rate thanks to improved standards of public health. Ideally it should be possible to counter balance the effect of a reduced death rate by an increased use of family planning. In practice, however, population control is a complex matter. Throughout history people have determined the size of their families according to the cultural values of their societies.Population control has long been a subject of discussion among researchers. Some have argued that the supply of good land is limited. In order to feed a large population, bad land must be cultivated and the good land overworked. As a result, each person produces less in a given amount of time and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other researchers have argued that a large population gives more scope for the development of facilities such as sports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them. Similarly, it can be argued that the public costs of society will not be so heavy to each individual if they are shared among the members of a large population.One of the difficulties in implementing birth control lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country. In underdeveloped countries where a large population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate. In a well developed society the problem may be more complex. A declining birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a shrinking market. Cities with a declining population may have to face the prospect of a shrinking tax base and a fall in land values. If there are fewer children going to school, teachers may be thrown out of work. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations 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.51. One reason for quick population increase in underdeveloped countries is that__________.[A] those countries encourage people to have large families[B] people can get government support if they have more kids[C] improved public health standards have reduced death rate greatly[D] those countries have enough resources to support a large population52. The writer suggests that policy makers should consider cultural values __________.[A] in carrying out family planning [B] in producing birth control drugs[C] in improving public health standards [D] in introducing birth control techniques53. A large population in an underdeveloped country may lead to __________.[A] a rise in work efficiency [B] a shortage of farm workers[C] a decline in grain production [D] a reduction in average income54. Some people believe that population control in developed countries may __________.[A] increase market demand [B] lower unemployment rate[C] slow down economic growth [D] create more job opportunities55. According to the writer, developed countries prefer __________.[A] a standstill population [B] a fast increasing population[C] a slowly growing population [D] a steadily decreasing populationIV.

It included the return to private ownership of state - owned industries, the use of monetarist policies to control inflation, the weakening of trade unions, the strengthening of the role of market forces in the economy, and an emphasis on law and order.2. diversity of American educationDiversity is considered to be an outstanding characteristic of American education. This can be seen not only in type, size and control of the institutions, but educational policies and practices. As is stated by the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, education is a function of the state, not the federal govemment. As each state has the freedom to develop its own school system and delegates its power over education to local districts, many variations can be found in the education system of the 50 states.3. the Canadian ShieldThe Canadian Shield is a semicircular band of rocky highlands and plateaus around Hudson Bay from the northern shores of Quebec to the Arctic shores of the Northwest Territories. It is a region of rounded hills, and tens of thousands of lakes and swamps.4. Australia's service industriesService industries are also called "tertiary industy". This sector now includes an additional "quaternary" level, which covers the research, processing and storage of information. Australia's service sector is the fastestgrowing one. It has been growing in importance, due to higher living standards and greater demand for more and better transport and housing, and the expansion by government of educational, health and welfare services.5. the New DealIn order to deal with the Depression, President Franklin Roosevelt put forward the New Deal program. It passed a lot of New Deal laws and set up many efficient social security systems. The New Deal helped to save American democracy and the development of American economy.V.1. Look at a physical map of the United States and find out and name the main monition ranges, rivers and lakes in the United States.There are two main mountain ranges in the United States. They are the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains. There are many important rivers in the United States. The Mississippi River and its two branches, the Missouri River and the Ohio River, flow south to the Gulf of Mexico. On the Pacific side there are two great rivers: the Colorado River and the Columbia River. The Rio Grande River forms a natural boundary between Mexico and the United States. Other well known rivers include the Hudson River which meets the Atlantic Ocean at New Yurk and the Potomac boarding the national capital of Washington. The most important lakes in the United States are the Great Lakes. They are Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. They are all located between Canada and the United States except Lade Michigan.2. How many constituencies are there in Britain today?How many members are there in the House of Commons?To hold general elections, Britain is divided into 651 constituencies, each of which returns one member to the House of Commons. There are 651 members in the House of Commnos.3. What were the effects of European settlement on the Aborigines?White settlement in 1788 proved disastrous for the Aborigines. (1) Aboriginal culture and society were totally disrupted because of a total conflict of cultures. (2) The loss o land to white people led to the breakdown of their tribal life because Aboriginal culture was based on the land. (3) After losing their land, Aborigines became dependent on white handouts. They copied the European habit of drinking alcohol, which destroyed large numbers of Aborigines. (4) The whites also brought many diseases which the Aborigines had no resistance to. (5) All these, combined with the violence between Europeans and Aborigines resulted in the drastically reduction in Aboriginal population. The Aborigines have always been in unfavorable position ever since 1788. The Aborigines still face legal, political, economic and social discrimination today.4. Sinn FeinSinn Fein was the Irish guerrilla movement that wrested independence from the British in 1921. It spit in 1921 over the Anglo - Irish Treaty and became two parties, Fianna Fail and Fine Gael, which remains to be the two major political parties in Ireland today.VI.1. Tell briefly the history of the two - party system in the United States. What are the characteristics of the two major parties in the United States today?There nave been four periods in the history of the two - party system in the United States.(1) During the Ratification period, the first two major parties appeared. They were the Federalists and the Anti - Federalists. After the adoption of the Bill of Rights, the Anti - Federalists began to call themselves Democratic - Republicans. The Federalists gradually disintegrated. (2) After the 1828 election of Andrew Jackson, the Democratic - Republican Party split. The main faction led by Jackson was called the Whig Party which formed in 1834. As the struggle over slavery intensified, the majority of the Whig Party, part of the democrats, and other anti - slavery elements formed the Republican Party in 1854. (3) From 1860s to 1920s, the Republican Party dominated the political scene. (4) From the time of President Franklin Roosevelt to the 1980s, the Democratic Party was dominant, with short interruptions.Traditionally, the Democrats support government intervention in the economy and a strong social security system. While the Republicans stress the role of the market more and oppose large government social security programs. But the two parties are not really very different. They both believe in individualism, defend capitalism and uphold private ownership of means of production. Their organizations are both very loose. But they are both very significant in political life.。

Reading Comprehension（40 points）Passage 1The typical conversation between Americans takes a form that can be called repartee. No one speaks for very long. Speakers take turns frequently, often after only a few sentences have b een spoken. “Watching a conversation between two Americans is like watching a table tennis game,” a British observer said. “Your head goes back and forth and back and forth so fast it almost makes your neck hurt.”Americans tend to be impatient with people who take long turns. Such people are said to “talk too much.” Many Americans have difficulty paying attention to someone who speaks more than a few sentences at a time, as Nigerians, Arabs, and some others do. Americans admire conciseness, or what they ca ll “getting to the point.”Americans engage in little ritual interaction (礼仪式的交流). Only a few ritual greetings are common: “How are you?” “I’m fine, thank you,” “Nice to meet you,” and “Hope to see you again.” These things are said in certain situations Americans learn to recognize, and, like any ritual greetings, are concerned more with form than with substance. That is, the questions are supposed to be asked and the statements are supposed to be made in particular situations, no matter what the people inv olved are feeling or what they really have in mind. In many American’s opinions, people who rely heavily on ritual greetings are “too shy” or “too polite,” unwilling to reveal their true natures and ideas.Americans are generally impatient with long ritual greetings about family members’ health—common among Latin Americans—considering them a waste of time.26. During a typical conversation between Americans, people try to be ________. a. polite b. interested c. concise d. friendly 27. By comparing a conversation between two Americans to a table tennis game, the British observer means that _________. a. Americans like to take short turns in a conversation b. Americans enjoy talking as well as watching a table tennis game c. Americans get excited easily d. Americans talk with great expression 28. Americans ___________ when they talk with Arabs. a. may lose their patience b. have to listen very carefully c. talk too much d. never use English 29. In the United States, ritual greetings __________. a. are very common in people’s conversations b. are suitable in all situations c. help to lead to a serious conversation d. have little substance 30. According to this passage, Americans have a low opinion of people who ____________. a.. do not talk much b. do not pay attention to the speaker c. like to ask about other people’s health d. bring too many ritual greetings into a conversation Passage 2 Ask most American children what they want to be when they grow up, and they probably will say “doctor” or “lawyer.”Though our culture, our economy, indeed our very security are heavily dependent on science and engineering, only 12 percent of American high school students graduate with the prerequisites(必要条件) for a career in science or engineering. Worse yet, only 6 percent of minority children are said to be so prepared.Don’t be too surprised. If you ask further why the majority of the high school students would choose a career in medicine or law, the answers will be straight out of some popular TV shows.“Doctors help people. They save lives.” “Lawyers beat the bad guys.” Most students would say.Now, how about science or engineering as a career choice? The answers will be just as pred ictable: “Get real! Who wants to be a geek? They all are nerds. Besides, I hate math.”In our media, scientists and engineers typically are portrayed as introverted(内向的) and humorless. They always wear white lab coats, with a collection of pencils装订线内不要答题in their pocket protectors. They wear glasses with black plastic frames. If more students are to choose technical careers, they must have a better view presented to them. They need to be told, for instance, that the invention of lifesaving equipment saves lives just as surely as the application of it in the hospital. It also might help if someone emphasized to students that the lawyer who saved the defendant(被告) by introducing the DNA evidence would have seen him hanged had it not been for the scientists who discovered DNA. Whatever we do, until students stop thinking of the term “engineer” as a synonym for “geek,” it is impossible to expect our children to change their views towards scientists and engineers. 31. What is the problem with most American children when they choose their careers? a. They have a very low opinion of science and engineering. b. They are too anxious to succeed in different fields. c. They are not sure what career suits them best. d. They do not have enough confidence in themselves. 32. Which of the following has influenced American students greatly in their choice of their careers? a. Parents’ opinions. b. TV shows and various publications. c. Great discoveries made by doctors and lawyers. d. Culture and economy. 33. In the passage, the writer criticizes the media for ___________. a. depicting scientists and engineers as nerds and geeks b. creating too much violence in the society c. failing to report the great achievements made by scientists d. using words like “nerd” and “geek” inappropriately 34. In order to change the students’ view towards scientists and engineers,the writer suggests that _________.a. teachers reconsider their way of teaching mathematicsb. students be told about the wonders of science and engineeringc. scientists and engineers change their images a little bitd. the media stop praising doctors and lawyers excessively35. Judging from what is said in the passage, the writer obviously believes that _________.a. scientists and engineers are more important than doctors and lawyersb. science and engineering have been dangerously ignoredc. American children are hopelessd. there are too many scientists and engineers nowadaysPassage 3Reaching new peaks of popularity in North America is Iceberg Water, which is harvested from icebergs off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. 装订线内不要答题Arthur von Wiesenberger, who carries the title Water Master, is one of the few water critics in North America. As a boy, he spent time in the larger cities of Italy, France and Switzerland, where bottled water is consumed daily. Even then, he kept a water journal, noting the brands he liked best. “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water,” He says.But is plain tap water a ll that bad? Not at all. In fact, New York’s municipal water for more than a century was called the champagne of tap water and until recently considered among the best in the world in terms of both taste and purity. Similarly, a magazine in England found that tap water from the Thames River tasted better than several leading brands of bottled water that were 400 times more expensive.Nevertheless, soft-drink companies view bottled water as the next battle-ground for market share—this despite the fact that over 25 percent of bottled water comes from tap water: PepsiCo’s Aquafina and Coca-Cola’s Dasani are both purified tap water rather than spring water.As diners thirst for leading brands, bottlers and restaurateurs salivate (垂涎) over the profits. A restaura nt’s typical mark-up on wine is 100 to 150 percent, whereas on bottled water it’s often 300 to 500 percent. But since water is much cheaper than wine, and many of the fancier brands aren’t available in stores, most diners don’t notice or care.As a result, some restaurants are turning up the pressure to sell bottled water. According to an article in The Street Journal, some of the more shameless tactics include placing attractive bottles on the table for a visual sell, listing brands on the menu without prices, and pouring bottled water without even asking the diners if they want it.Regardless of how it’s sold, the popularity of bottled water taps into our desire for better health, our wish to appear cultivated, and even a longing for lost purity.36. What do we know about Iceberg Water from the passage?a. It is a kind of iced water.b. It is just plain tap water.c. It is a kind of bottled water.d. It is a kind of mineral water.37. By saying “My dog could tell the difference between bottled and tap water” (Para. 2), von Wiesenberger wants to convey the message that ________.a. plain tap water is certainly unfit for drinkingb. bottled water is clearly superior to tap waterc. bottled water often appeals more to dogs tasted. dogs can usually detect a fine difference in taste38. The “fancier brands” (Para. 5) refers to ________.a. tap water from the Thames Riverb. famous wines not sold in ordinary storesc. PepsiCo’s Aquafina and Coca-Cola’s Dasanid. expensive bottled water with impressive names39. Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water?a. Bottled water brings in huge profits.b. Competition from the wine industry is intense.c. Most diners find bottled water affordable.d. Bottled water satisfied diners’ desir e to fashionable. 40. According to passage, why is bottled water so popular? a. It is much cheaper than wine. b. It is considered healthier. c. It appeals to more cultivated people. d. It is more widely promoted in the market. Passage 4 As we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease —especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors, such as poor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can be pursued further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight, but does not eat very nutritious (有营养的) foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, who goes to work every day, but is not an outstanding worker, who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk, and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, but sleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier. The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely “not ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs. Both types have simply been called “well.” In recent years, however, some health specialists have begun to apply the terms “well” and “wellness” only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise, and they make a point of monitoring their body’s condition. Most important, perhaps, people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺陷) may be “well,” in this ne wsense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations. “Wellness” may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but as an ideal that people can strive for. People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.41. Today medical care is placing more stress on ________.a. keeping people in a healthy physical conditionb. monitoring patients’ body functionsc. removing people’s bad living habitsd. ensuring people’s psychological well -being42. In the first paragraph, people are reminded that ________.a. good health is more than not being illb. drinking, even if not to excess, could be harmful装订线内不要答题c. regular health checks are essential to keeping fitd. prevention is more difficult than cure 43. Traditiona lly, a person is considered “well” if he ________. a. does not have any unhealthy living habits b. does not have any physical handicaps c. is able to handle his daily routines d. is free from any kind of disease 44. According to the author, the true mea ning of “wellness” is for people ________. a. to best satisfy their body’s special needs b. to strive to maintain the best possible health c. to meet the strictest standards of bodily health d. to keep a proper balance between work and leisure 45. According to what the author advocates, which of the following groups of people would be considered healthy? a. People who have strong muscles as well as slim figures. b. People who are not presently experiencing any symptoms of disease. c. People who try to maintain the best possible, regardless of their limitations. d. People who can recover from illness even without seeking medical care. Ⅴ. Sentences Translation 1.看见火车轰隆隆地向他开来，他即刻的反应就是要跳离铁轨，但双腿却不听使唤。
