All you have to do is just listen. Keep on listening. Don't answer back, and in nine cases out of ten, your staff will leave your room perfectly happy and satisfied.Even ordinary things should be noticed and appreciated. That's what the smart boss does. So you shouldn't just praise once and forget about it. If someone has done a good job, you should mention it again and again and again, because for most of us the desire for appreciation is never satisfied.Moreover, a good supervisor (监管者) certainly notices the changes in all members of his staff and asks about them. When a staff member is back from leave, the good supervisor asks the staff member how he enjoyed his time off. He welcomes him back with a cheerful smile. It is just these small touches that make all the difference between a pleasant and unpleasant working environment.It is a fact that anyone loves being given attention, and you have to recognize it if you want good results when dealing with people. People crave (渴求) attention. And they will get it one way or another. If they can't get it by being constructive (建设性的), they will get it by being destructive (破坏性的). Don't ignore people. Even a few seconds of attention periodically (周期性地) can make all the difference.As a boss, before you yourself eat or look after your own needs, you must see to the needs of your people. You should also keep yourself in touch with the habits and ways of the people who work for you. Give them plenty of chances to say what they think. Encourage them to do so. This is one of the best ways to keep open the lines of communication. Do this often. Talk to your people. Get to know what's on their minds. Then you will be able to anticipate theirneeds and even stop trouble well before a matter becomes serious.91.It may be surprising that people in general just _____B______________.A. feel happy and satisfied oftenB. wish to reveal their innermost feelingsC. listen to what others have to sayD. want to answer back when told something92.To be a smart boss, you should _______C_____________.A. only praise your staff members for a good job sometimesB. show your craving (渴求) for appreciation again and againC. take notice of ordinary things and show your appreciationD. do a good job and expect your staff members to praise you93.We can guess that these small touches of your care_____A_____________.A. enhance the pleasant feelings at workB. urge your staff members to come backC. enable yourself to go on workingD. keep your staff members working hard94.It is a general fact that people _______D________________.A. want good results in their workB. want to work without being botheredC. would become constructive (建设性的) when neglectedD. have a strong desire for attention95.The passage is mainly about _____B________________.A. praise being better than criticismB. how to be a smart bossC. listening to your staffD. making a differenceQuestions 96 to 100 are based on the same passage or dialog.In 1848, gold was discovered in California; from all over the nation, thousands of young men set out for California. People called this the time of the Gold Rush.A gold miner came into a city looking for a pair of pants. He wanted pants strong enough to stand up to the rough work of mining. He met a young man named Levi, who sold heavy cloth for tents and wagon tops. They asked a tailor to use heavy cloth for their pants. Then Levi went into the business of making work pants. He asked his brothers to send him some strong blue cotton cloth called denim (斜纹粗棉布). With this blue denim cloth, Levi started making the kind of pants we call blue jeans today. They were sewed up in the same way as other pants.In 1860, a miner said that the pockets weren't strong enough to hold the pieces of gold he found. The pockets kept falling off the pants. The cloth was all right. It was the thread that wasn't strong enough. So Levi used rivets (铆钉) to attach the pockets onto the pants.Cowboys needed tough pants, too. They liked their pants to fit tightly. But the rivets marked the cowboys' saddles. So Levi covered the rivets with cloth. Then everybody was happy.96.This article as a whole is about _____A_____________.A. how people got blue jeansB. the Gold Rush in CaliforniaC. How blue jeans are madeD. The kind of pants cowboys' wear97.While not stated in the article, you can tell that _______D___________.A. everybody who went to California got a lot of goldB. Levi found riches in the gold fieldsC. Levi sold more jeans to cowboys than to gold minersD. Levi made more money than many gold miners98.The word this in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to_______C____.A. CaliforniaB. the discovery of goldC. many people looking for goldD. the nation at this time99.Levi used strong blue cotton cloth to make pants because _____C_____.A. gold miners liked the blue colorB. this was the only cloth he hadC. miners wanted pants which could stand rough workD. cowboys liked their pants to fit tightly100.Which of the following sentences is NOT true?BA. It was Levi who started the business of making blue jeans.B. It was one tailor who started making blue jeans.C. It was in California that blue jeans first became popular.D. It was in California that gold was discovered.Questions 101 to 105 are based on the same passage or dialog.Rote-learning (死记硬背), spoon-fed education, produces a brand of kids that don't know what to do when entering university. They are disciplined into following, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination. The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not the followers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college and university level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown into a process designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent in listening to teachers.There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing.Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. The computer may not be liked by traditional teachers, who use rote-learning toput information, which will be out of date in a few years, into the heads of the students. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing; you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learn faster.The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will be out of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at school may be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choice what to forget. Rote-learning for exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be better to learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly be doing a job in the not too distant future which has not yet been invented.101.According to the author, the future doesn't need ___D_________.A. creativityB. imaginationC. creatorsD. followers102.In the author's view, how can students learn well?DA. Carefully listen to the teacher in class.B. Take down every single word said by the teacher.C. Learn all the notes by heart.D. Combine listening with looking and doing.103.What does the author mean by "The changing speed of information is frightening"? BA. We don't have enough time to adjust ourselves to the speed of information.B. What we learned today may not be useful tomorrow.C. The pace of life is too fast.D. The world is changing every minute.104.What does the last sentence of the passage tell us? BA. Rote-learning is completely harmful.B. Students may have to do jobs which are not yet in existence.C. It's better to learn how to learn than learn what to forget.D. Students must imagine the future.105.The author's attitude towards rote-learning is ___B______.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. confidentD. opposite to what the words say Key: 1-10 A C D C D/ C B B A C 11-20 C C C A C/ D B D C A。

The children often asked him to tell them some stories and his life in Africa.One day a few children asked him to tell them something about the animals in Africa. He told them how he fought with the tigers and elephants. His stories surprised them all and some policemen and workers went to listen to him. It made him happier. Just a man who taught geography in a middle school passed there. He stopped to listen to him for a while and then said, "Could you please tell us a rare animal, sir?""Certainly," said Mr. Turner.

D (Doctor of Philosophy from Boston University, he became a political and religious leader of the non-violent civil relights movement in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he led over 250,000 Americans on a march in Washington D.C. to fight for the Civil Rights before the Lincoln Memorial.

These great forests are the oceans of trees. There are thousands and thousands of different kinds of plants and animals.However, the world's forests are getting smaller all the time. We are cutting down the trees because we need wood, and we need more farmland. Some people say that there will not be any forests like these in 20 or 30 years. What will happen if they disappear?If we cut down our forests, a lot of plants and animals will disappear from the world. In a lot of places the new farmland will soon look like the old deserts. Crops will not grow there. It will not rain very often, and the weather will get very hot. Perhaps the climate of the world will change. This will be dangerous for everyone in the world.

Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家 think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to somepsychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "You are such a smart child." 1.

She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States. She spoke English very well. Though she was very happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and friends. As she was thinking all about this, she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales(称). Maria pulled and pulled. The bag was too heavy and she just couldn’t lift it up. The man behind her got very impatient. He, too, was waiting to check in his luggage.“What ’s wrong with this girl?” He said, “Why doesn’t she hurry up?” He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in first. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said, “Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, why can ’t you give me a hand with my luggage?”The man was surprised to hear Maria speak English. He quickly picked up her luggage and stepped back.

Wide spread use of written language would not have been possible without some cheap and practical material to write on. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed and distributed. Together with the printing press, paper provided an extremely important way to communicate knowledge.How much paper do you use every year? Probably you cannot answer that question quickly. In 1990 the world ’s use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year. Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper than other countries.Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant. Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of year.

Between the hours of 11 a. m. and 4:30 p. m., college television lou nges are filled with soap opera fans who can’t wait to see the next episode in the lives of their favorite characters.Actually, soaps are more than a college favorite; they’re a youth favorite. When school is out, high-school students are in front of their TV sets. One young working woman admitted that she turned down a higher paying job rather than give up watching her favorite serials. During the 1960’s, it was uncommon for young people to watch soap operas. The mood of the sixties was very different from now. It was a time of seriousness, and talk was about social issues of great importance.Now, seriousness has been replaced by fun. Young people want to be happy. It may seem strange that they should turn to soap opera, which is known for showing trouble in people’s lives. But soap opera is enjoyment. Young people can identify with the soap opera character, who, like the college-age viewer, is looking for happy love, and probably not finding it. And soap opera gives young people a chance to feel close to people without having to bear any responsibility for their problems.1. What is soap opera? A. Plays based on science fiction stories. B. Plays based on non-fiction stories.C. The daytime serial dramas on TV.D. Popular documentary films on TV.2. What can be the best title of the passage?A. College student viewers.B.

Because the viewers want to be happy and to enjoy themselves.B. Because the soap opera makes young people feel close to their people.C. Because the viewers can find themselves in the soap opera characters.D. Because the young people have to bear the responsibilities for their troubles.4. What can we learn from the passage?A. College students like soap operas more than any other social groups.B. Young people of sixties like soap operas more than people today.C. Young viewers have turned themselves from the seriousness of sixties to enjoyment now.D. The young as a whole are trying to look for happy love but in vain.5. What message does the author want to convey to us? A. The people’s favorites to drama works have been changed for a long time.B. The people’s favorites to drama works change along with the times.C.

It is certainly true that worry and quarrel can cause all kinds of illnesses, 1 backache to severe headaches, or even more serious complaints such as high blood pressure. Many of us think 2 stress as something that other people impose on us. We often complain about how other people put us 3 pressure. But we should try not to let such pressure affect us. We should not forget that we are largely responsible for some of the stress ourselves. We sometimes take 4 more work than our bodies and our minds can handle. We should learn to 5 our limitations.

At that time, zoos were places 1 people could go to see animals from many parts of the world. The animals lived in cages that were made 2 concrete with ironbars, cages that were easy to keep clean. Unfortunately for the animals, the cages were small and impossible to hide in. The zoo environment was anything but natural. 3 the zoo keepers took good care of the animals and fed them well, many of the animals did not thrive; they behaved in strange ways, and they often became ill. In modern zoos, people can see animals in more natural habitats. The animals are given more 4 in large areas so that they can live more comfortably as they would in nature.

And we can't even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of it has been polluted.

Every term students aregiven the opportunity to evaluate their teachers. Theyare supposed to judge their teachers’lectures,interests in students’problems, methods of exercise,and general ability to conduct a class. Then, when theteacher has left the classroom, they must write theirevaluation o the forms provided. They are notsupposed to exchange views or discuss theirresponses. After everyone has completed the forms,one student collects and puts them in envelopes.It is very difficult to evaluate another person’sperformance fairly. For example, Santa recently wroteirresponsible remarks about her teacher because shewas failing the course. Her friend Sam wrote amarvelous description of the same teacher because hewas receiving an A in the course. Both Santa and Samwere not fairly evaluating the teacher. They wereinfluence by the grades they were earning and wereunfair in their judgments.Another irresponsible form of evaluation occurredwhen James rated his teacher excellent because theteacher is “easy”. He gives few tests and only assigns(分配) one paper during the entire term. His lecturesare often filled with jokes and endless stories about hisfamily. On the other hand, James rated ProfessorJones poor because he assigns homework daily, givespretest previews and post-test reviews, and packs his lectures with information.Santa, Sam, and James have not thought about their teachers’teaching abilities. They have written unfair evaluations and have not given thought to their evaluations. They have not made fair judgments, but instead have been influenced by their own personality and have equated (使等同) light work with excellence in teaching.Santa and Sam judged their teacher by ____________.所选答案:C. the grades that they were earning问题33得2 分,满分2 分James’ evaluation was influenced by ____________.所选答案:A. the amount of coursework问题34得2 分,满分2 分The word “easy” (Line 2,Para. 3) most probably means____________ .所选答案: D. not strict问题35得2 分,满分2 分The students didn’t evaluate their teachers fairly because____________.所选答案:C. their personality affected them a lot问题36得2 分,满分2 分The best title for this passage is ____________.所选答案: B.

I, however, don't see 54.with these people.To my mind, the greatest value of friends is something 55.. Friendspoint out when you're in error, either factually or 56.. So when you'remaking a horrible mistake, such as 57.on your wife, a friend shouldset you right. And if you're putting 58.in a business that's sure to fail, a friend should take you aside for a frank discussion. And all talk should be as 59.as it is honest.

And we should support only rightactions.Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(Each item: 2)Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 71 to 75 are based on the same passage or dialog.What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any especially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance at a fresh start at work.71. Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?A. The importance of doing well at school.B. Using school performance to help to choose a career.C. The importance of being good at all subjects.D. The indirect value of schoolwork.72. Which subject has indirect, rather than direct, use for a job?A. Mathematics.B. English.C. Engineering.D. History.73. The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably ______.A. a waste of time that could have been spent on studyB. useful for his future workC. a good way to earn extra moneyD. a good way to find out his weak points74. According to the passage, if a student's school record is not good, he ______.A. will be a complete failure in his future workB. will not be able to find a suitable jobC. will regret not having worked harder at schoolD. may do well in his future work75. The whole passage centers on ______.A. choosing a career according to what one is skilled inB. acquiring knowledge by working hard at schoolC. finding one's strong and weak pointsD. developing one's useful abilities in school workQuestions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.As a Canadian bilingual (双语的) teacher, I agree that the Canadian bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. However, Mr. Whelpton's suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers. Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they "understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom" which is a rather sterile explanation. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centered manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests.Mr. Whelpton's third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills with others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary? Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Therefore the concept of Cooperative Learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they cooperate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information.76. How would you describe the writer's style?A. Written in an academic style.B. Written in a journalistic style.C. Written in a personal style.D. Written on the basis of widespread research in the area.77. How would you describe the writer's attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programs?A. Balanced.B. Unenthusiastic.C. Supportive.D. Critical.78. In Paragraph 1 the writer ________.A. agrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentB. agrees partially with Mr. Whelpton's argumentC. disagrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentD. is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelpton's argument79. In Paragraph 2 "sterile" is closest in meaning to ________.A. uninformativeB. unusualC. exaggeratedD. uninspiring80. According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success ________.A. because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB. because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the same levelC. because the students can use their first language freelyD. because they work towards real life goalsQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed (供应,分发) among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought andsold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (极大数量) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility (公用事业) services. The interrelationship of all these prices makes up the system of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.If one were to ask a group of randomly (任意地) selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees (保证) on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that compose the total "package" being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.81.

The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses ______.A. unusual ways to advertise productsB. types of payment plans for serviceC. theories about how products affect different levels of societyD. how certain elements of a price "package" influence its market valueQuiz 3小题Part 1 Multiple Choice1.A2.C3.A4.D5.A6.B7.A8.B9.D 10.D11.D 12.C 13.A 14.B 15.D 16.

There is no doubt that one of the greatest concerns of modern man is his health. It is estimated that in the United States $200 billion are spent on health care each year. The medical field has grown into such a big business that it employs 4.8 million people. Much more interest has been shown in preventive medicine in recent years. This is probably due to the increasing costs of medical treatment, but the writing of such people as Dr. Kenneth Cooper have also played an important role. In his book Aerobics, Dr. Cooper communicated his message of the benefits of exercise so effectively that many other authors have followed inhis trail, and literally millions of readers have put on their sports shoes and taken to the highways and byways of America. A recent survey showed that over 17 million people are jogging. Many of these are so serious that they trained themselves to run the 26 miles and 385 yards of the hard and tiring marathons(马拉松) that are organized all over the country. The last time I was in Honolulu , I was amazed to see hundreds of people, young and old, running for their lives. And I discovered many of them have run in the Hawaiian Marathon. Exercise has also become a major part of conversation. At a dinner party recently, the president of a bank asked me, “ You look like a runner; how far do you run each day?” A few days later when I appeared on a national television show, the host suddenly asked me if I was a regular runner. On both occasions the conversation turned to the subject ofexercise and I found that this is a subject on many people ’s minds.The “early risers ” mentioned in Paragraph 1 are ____________ .所选答案: D. people who get up early问题 33得 2 分,满分 2 分What does the writer think of the $200 billion spent on health care each year? 所选答案: C. It’s a big sum of money.问题 34 得 2 分,满分 2 分According to the passage, nowadays what people are most interested in is ____________.所选答案:B. how to keep fit问题 35 得 2 分,满分 2 分Why are the examples of conversation in the last paragraph used? 所选答案:A. To show the importance of running.问题 36得 2 分,满分 2 分 Aerobics is a book about ____________ . 所选答案:A. exercise。

All you have to do is just listen. Keep on listening. Don't answer back, and in nine cases out of ten, your staff will leave your room perfectly happy and satisfied.Even ordinary things should be noticed and appreciated. That's what the smart boss does. So you shouldn't just praise once and forget about it. If someone has done a good job, you should mention it again and again and again, because for most of us the desire for appreciation is never satisfied.Moreover, a good supervisor (监管者) certainly notices the changes in all members of his staff and asks about them. When a staff member is back from leave, the good supervisor asks the staff member how he enjoyed his time off. He welcomes him back with a cheerful smile. It is just these small touches that make all the difference between a pleasant and unpleasant working environment.It is a fact that anyone loves being given attention, and you have to recognize it if you want good results when dealing with people. People crave (渴求) attention. And they will get it one way or another. If they can't get it by being constructive (建设性的), they will get it by being destructive (破坏性的). Don't ignore people. Even a few seconds of attention periodically (周期性地) can make all the difference.As a boss, before you yourself eat or look after your own needs, you must see to the needs of your people. You should also keep yourself in touch with the habits and ways of the people who work for you. Give them plenty of chances to say what they think. Encourage them to do so. This is one of the best ways to keep open the lines of communication. Do this often. Talk to your people. Get to know what's on their minds. Then you will be able to anticipate their needs and even stop trouble well before a matter becomes serious.91.It may be surprising that people in general just _____B______________.A. feel happy and satisfied oftenB. wish to reveal their innermost feelingsC. listen to what others have to sayD. want to answer back when told something92.To be a smart boss, you should _______C_____________.A. only praise your staff members for a good job sometimesB. show your craving (渴求) for appreciation again and againC. take notice of ordinary things and show your appreciationD. do a good job and expect your staff members to praise you93.We can guess that these small touches of your care_____A_____________.A. enhance the pleasant feelings at workB. urge your staff members to come backC. enable yourself to go on workingD. keep your staff members working hard94.It is a general fact that people _______D________________.A. want good results in their workB. want to work without being botheredC. would become constructive (建设性的) when neglectedD. have a strong desire for attention95.The passage is mainly about _____B________________.A. praise being better than criticismB. how to be a smart bossC. listening to your staffD. making a differenceQuestions 96 to 100 are based on the same passage or dialog.In 1848, gold was discovered in California; from all over the nation, thousands of young men set out for California. People called this the time of the Gold Rush.A gold miner came into a city looking for a pair of pants. He wanted pants strong enough to stand up to the rough work of mining. He met a young man named Levi, who sold heavy cloth for tents and wagon tops. They asked a tailor to use heavy cloth for their pants. Then Levi went into the business of making work pants. He asked his brothers to send him some strong blue cotton cloth called denim (斜纹粗棉布). With this blue denim cloth, Levi started making the kind of pants we call blue jeans today. They were sewed up in the same way as other pants.In 1860, a miner said that the pockets weren't strong enough to hold the pieces of gold he found. The pockets kept falling off the pants. The cloth was all right. It was the thread that wasn't strong enough. So Levi used rivets (铆钉) to attach the pockets onto the pants.Cowboys needed tough pants, too. They liked their pants to fit tightly. But the rivets marked the cowboys' saddles. So Levi covered the rivets with cloth. Then everybody was happy.96.This article as a whole is about _____A_____________.A. how people got blue jeansB. the Gold Rush in CaliforniaC. How blue jeans are madeD. The kind of pants cowboys' wear97.While not stated in the article, you can tell that _______D___________.A. everybody who went to California got a lot of goldB. Levi found riches in the gold fieldsC. Levi sold more jeans to cowboys than to gold minersD. Levi made more money than many gold miners98.The word this in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to_______C____.A. CaliforniaB. the discovery of goldC. many people looking for goldD. the nation at this time99.Levi used strong blue cotton cloth to make pants because _____C_____.A. gold miners liked the blue colorB. this was the only cloth he hadC. miners wanted pants which could stand rough workD. cowboys liked their pants to fit tightly100. Which of the following sentences is NOT true? BA. It was Levi who started the business of making blue jeans.B. It was one tailor who started making blue jeans.C. It was in California that blue jeans first became popular.D. It was in California that gold was discovered.Questions 101 to 105 are based on the same passage or dialog.Rote-learning (死记硬背), spoon-fed education, produces a brand of kids thatdon't know what to do when entering university. They are disciplined into following, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination. The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not the followers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college and university level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown into a process designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent in listening to teachers.There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing.Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. The computer may not be liked by traditional teachers, who use rote-learning to put information, which will be out of date in a few years, into the heads of the students. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing; you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learn faster.The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will be out of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at school may be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choice what to forget. Rote-learning for exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be better to learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly be doing a job in the not too distant future which has not yet been invented.101. According to the author, the future doesn't need ___D_________.A. creativityB. imaginationC. creatorsD. followers102. In the author's view, how can students learn well? DA. Carefully listen to the teacher in class.B. Take down every single word said by the teacher.C. Learn all the notes by heart.D. Combine listening with looking and doing.103. What does the author mean by "The changing speed of information is frightening"? BA. We don't have enough time to adjust ourselves to the speed ofinformation.B. What we learned today may not be useful tomorrow.C. The pace of life is too fast.D. The world is changing every minute.104. What does the last sentence of the passage tell us? BA. Rote-learning is completely harmful.B. Students may have to do jobs which are not yet in existence.C. It's better to learn how to learn than learn what to forget.D. Students must imagine the future.105. The author's attitude towards rote-learning is ___B______.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. confidentD. opposite to what the words sayKey: 1-10 A C D C D/ C B B A C 11-20 C C C A C/ D B D C A。

Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham, were the long-distance western 31 where ridership had been declining significantly.At one time, trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west. Trains were fast, luxurious, and quite convenient 32 to other forms of transportation existing at the time. However, times changed and the automobile became America’s standard of convenience. Also, air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances. Therefore, the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other 33 of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west.Two portions of total market were 34 : A) anxious fliers—those concerned 35 safety, relaxation, and cleanliness and B) travel-lovers—those viewing themselves as relaxed, 36, and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation. The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom, escape, relaxation, and enjoyment of the great western outdoors. It stressed experiences 37 by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures.Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful 38 that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder, etc.). These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs 39 nature and America in order to most affectively reach target audiences. Results were impressive. The Empire Builder, which was focused on in one ad, enjoyed a 15 percent increase in profits 40 its Chicago to Seattle route.31、A. routes B. roads C. ways D. paths32、A. comparing B. comparedC. compareD. being compared33、A. parts B.portions C.proportions D.aspects34、A. divided B.targeted C. providedD.excluded35、A. with B. for C. at D. in36、A.formal B.casual C.stressfulD.considerable37、A.gained B.retained C.attained D.maintained38、A.session B.solitude C. scenery D. stain39、A. involve B. involvedC.involvingD. being involved40、A. on B. in C. at D. ofDirections:Read the following passage and then choose the best choice.Mass transportation revised the social and economic fabric of the American city in three fundamental ways. It speeded up physical expansion, it sorted out people and land uses, and it accelerated the inherent instability of urban life. By opening vast areasof unoccupied land for residential expansion, the omnibuses, horse railways, commuter trains and electric trolleys pulled settled regions outward two or four times more distance from city centers than they were in the pre-modern era. In 1850, for example, the borders of Boston lay scarcely two miles from the old business district; by the turn of the century the radius (半径范围) extended ten miles. Now those who could afford it could live far removed from the old city center and still commuter there for work, shopping, and entertainment. The new accessibility of land around the outer edge of almost every major city sparked an explosion of real estate development and fueled what we now know as urban sprawl. Between 1890 and 1920, for example, some 250,000 new residential lots were recorded within the borders of Chicago, most of them located in remote areas. Over the same period, another 550,000 were plotted outside the city limits but within the metropolitan area. Anxious to take advantage of the possibilities of commuting, real-estate developers added 800,000 potential building sites to the Chicago region in just thirty years—lots that could have housed five to six million people.Of course, many were never occupied, there was always a huge surplus subdivided, but vacant land around Chicago and other cities. These excesses underscore a feature of residential expansion related to the growth of mass transportation: urban sprawl was essentially unplanned. It was carried out by thousandsof small investors who paid little heed to coordinated land use or to future land users. Those who purchasedand prepared land for residential purposes, particularly land near or outside city borders where transit lines and middle-class inhabitants were anticipated, did so to create demand as much as to respond to it. Chicago is a prime example of this process. Real estate subdivision there proceeded much faster than population growth.41. The passage is mainly concerned with _____.A) types of mass transportationB) instability of urban lifeC) how supply and demand determine land useD) the effects of mass transportation on urbanexpansion42. The author mentions all of the following as effectsof mass transportation on cities EXCEPT _____.A) growth in city areaB) separation of commercial and residential districtsC) changes in life in the inner cityD) increasing standards of living43. The italicized word “sparked” in the firstparagraph is closest in meaning to _____.A) brought on B) surroundedC) sent out D) followed44.

The university enrollment has been on the increase and some institutions of higher learning do not have enough teachers and teaching facilities, thus affecting the educational quality.Task3:Let's group work!VI.Further Listening and SpeakingListening Task:Task1:Problems with our educational systemHi,everybody.My topic today is"Problems with our educational system".I disagree on a lot of the ways that things have happened for a long time in our educational system.It seems that educators just want to give standardized tests,which focus only on academic performance and neglect students'abilities and interest in other areas.I think there are a lot of people who are very intelligent,but haven't had the opportunities they could have had if they had learned in a broader-minded educational system.I feel that a lot of courses that students are required to take in high school are too academic,and,as a result,many kids have lost their interest in cators often fail to recognize various kinds of intelligence.They simply exert a lot of pressure on students to be as well-rounded as possible.I think being well-rounded isn't really possible.And as a consequence,some students I believe to be intelligent can't get into good colleges if they,you know,haven't scored well on the math section,even if they are brilliant writers.Another thing that disturbs me is that the so-called weak students are separated from the rest of the school.Some kids are kept in a separate class if their grades are lower than others'.And they're very aware of their social position,you know.I think it causes them to act in a way that is not really positive.They're just acting in a way they are expected.Often their grades go from bad to worse.And that's pretty sad.I think that many of the kids in those classes are intelligent,but they never actually realize their potential because of the way they are treated early on in their education.Keys:(1)standardized tests(2)abilities and interest(3)interest(4)pressure(5)well-rounded(6)get into good colleges(7)the rest of the school(8)from bad to worseTask2:The final examScriptAt a university,there were four sophomores taking a chemistry course. They were doing so well on all the quizzes,midterms,labs,etc.that each had an"A"so far for the semester.These four friends were so confident that on the weekend before the final,they decided to go up to the University of Virginia and party with some friends there.They had a great time and didn't make it back to school until early Monday morning.Rather than taking the final then,they decided to find their professor after the final and explain to him why they missed it.They explained that they had planned to come back in time for the final exam,but,unfortunately,they had a flat tire on the way back and didn't have a spare. As a result,they missed the final.The professor thought it over and then agreed they could make up the final the following day.The guys were relieved and elated.The next day,the professor placed them in separate rooms,handed each of them a paper,and told them to begin.They looked at the first problem,worth five points.It was a simple question on a chemical reaction."Cool,"they all thought at the same time,each one in his separate room, "this is going to be easy."Each finished the problem and then turned the page.On the second page was a question worth95points:"Which of the tires was flat?"Keys:(1)course(2)quizzes(3)semester(4)confident(5)party(6)make(7)missed(8)they had a flat tire on the way back and didn't have a spare(9)placed them in separate rooms,handed each of them a paper(10)On the second page was a question worthTask3:Harvard UniversityScriptHarvard University is the oldest institute of higher learning in the United States.Founded16years after the arrival of the Pilgrims at Plymouth,the university has grown from nine students with a single master to the present enrollment of more than21,000students,including undergraduates and students in10graduate and professional schools.Over14,000people work at Harvard,including more than2,100faculty members.Harvard has produced eight American presidents and many Nobel Prize winners.During its early years,Harvard offered a classic academic course based on the model of English universities,but consistent with the prevailing Puritan philosophy.Although many of its early graduates became ministers in Puritan churches throughout New England,the university was never formally affiliated with a specific religious group.Under President Pusey,Harvard started what was then the largest fundraising campaign in the history of American higher education.It was an82.5-million-dollar program for the university.The program increased faculty salaries,broadened student aid,created new professorships,and expanded Harvard's physical facilities.NeiI L.Rudenstine took office as Harvard's26th president in1991.As part of an overall effort to achieve greater coordination among the university's schools and faculties,Rudenstine encouraged academic planning and identified some of Harvard's main intellectual priorities.He also stressed the importance of the university's excellence in undergraduate education,the significance of keeping Harvard's doors open to students from families of different economic backgrounds,and the task of adapting the research university to an era of both rapid information growth and serious fund shortage.Keys:1.B2.A3.C4.D5.DViewing and speaking:Task1:University budget cutsScriptHost:Well,David Lammy,the University Minister,joins me from Westminster.Now thanks for joining us this lunchtime,mmy.How do these cuts...tie in with your much trumpeted commitment to increasing higher education?Interviewee:Well,I think it's important to remind viewers that we will spend well over12billion pounds on higher education this year and to also say that there will be more students at university next year than everbefore in our history.But what is important is that when they get to university,is that they have good facilities,good buildings,that they have good contact with their lecturers and,for students from poorer backgrounds that they receive a grant.And you know40percent of students who are going to university are in receipt of some grants.So we have to plan...Host:But there's going to be less money next year.That's the bottom line, isn't it?Interviewee:Er,we are asking universities to make a one percent cut in their teaching grant.That's51million out of a total budget of over five billion.Look,I think there are families across the country preparing for Christmas spending a bit less and they're,you know,it's a lot more than one percent that they're,they're feeling.So I think this is reasonable to ask universities if we are to ensure that we can continue to send more young people to university and we remain committed to that.Host:And briefly,what about these two-year degrees?This is a reduction in standards,isn't it?Interviewee:Well,we,we,we...It's important in this country that we remember that students aren't just the classic18-to21-year-oldundergraduates.We want mature students.We want more parttime students and over the last few years we've been growing the number of foundation degree, two-year degrees that ensure that transition into high university and high level skills.That's what we want to support and that's what we're indicating in the grant letter that we've sent to universities over the last few days.

Sometimes the pollutants enter the food chain and accumulate until they reach toxic levels,eventually killing fish and other animals.Third,oil pollution.If oil enters a slow-moving river,it forms a rainbow-colored film over the entire surface,preventing oxygen from entering the water.Fourth,warm water.Industry often uses water for cooling processes, sometimes discharging large quantities of warm water back into rivers.A higher temperature of the water lowers the level of dissolved oxygen and upsets the balance of life in the water.Keys:1.D2.A3.B4.C5.DTask3:Curbing carbon emissionsScript:Although it is not an easy task,China is striving to fulfill the promise to cut its carbon dioxide emissions per unit of GDP by40to45percent in the next10years.Zhang Guobao,Director of the National Energy Administration,said, "The government puts great emphasis on seeking harmonious development between cities and the environment,and is readjusting the energy structure by giving priority to the development of clean and low-carbon energies,including hydroelectric,nuclear,wind,and solar power."Government authorities have closed small,coal-fired plants with a total capacity of60.06million kilowatts in the past four years.This year's target of closing10million kilowatts of capacity will be achieved by August."We have promised to the international community that15percent of our power will be generated from nonfossil sources by2020,"Director Zhang said.At present,non-fossil energy accounts for only7.8percent.China is making efforts to increase the proportion of clean energy in its total energy consumption.Statistics show that China invested US$34.6 billion in clean energy last year,exceeding the United States whichinvested US$18.6billion.Thus,China has become the world leader in generating clean energy.Five years earlier,China's investment in clean energy was only US$2.5billion.However,China's carbon emission reduction target cannot be achieved easily.The shift to a low-carbon economy might be met at a cost to society.For instance,more than400,000people were laid off as a result of the shutdown of small coal-fired power plants in the past four years. Many studies indicate that the effort to curb greenhouse gas emissions may delay China's development,affect people's income,and lead to unemployment.Keys:1.D2.D3.A4.B5.CIV.Speaking OutMODEL1MODEL2MODEL3V.Let?ˉs TalkTask1:Disappointment over climate negotiationsKeys:1)doesn't really actually commit anyone to doing anything,2)the atmosphere simple can't take the kind of emissions we've been seeing in the business-as-usual scenario and there's no real commitment to change that.3)There's no real commitment to put serious money on the table4)It's not backed by action,5)It does not constitute a...a deal.6)It's a hollow shell7)it lacks anything on emissions cuts8)There's no guarantee that there will be new money,that the money will be real,that there's actually a commitment to get there,or that it will be channeled in new ways,Task2:What's your answer?Two speakers hold a negative attitude toward the world climate conference.Task3:Let's group work!Developed countries should bear more responsibilities.First,they caused most of the world pollution in their industrialization process.Second,they are already economically advanced,with more funds to deal with pollution problems.On the other hand,developing countries caused less pollution in the past, and now they need rapid development.Therefore,an international agreement the Kyoto Protocol in1997 stipulated common but differentiated responsibilities for developed and developing nations,which means that both should be responsible for environmental protection and cut carbon dioxide emissions,but theformer must take more responsibility.Recently,however,some wealthy countries have insisted that developing countries like China should shoulder more responsibilities.VI.Further Listening and SpeakingListening Task:Task1:The environment and the developmentScript:Li:Hi,Professor Wang.I'm Li Lin,a correspondent for the university newspaper.The staff and students here are getting more and more interested in the relationship between the environment and economic development.What do you think is the most serious environmental problem at present? What measures should we adopt to improve the environment and develop the economy at the same time?Wang:There are many environmental problems:air pollution,water pollution,desertification,overfishing,destruction of natural habitats,acid rain,overconsumption of wild animals and plants,etc.But lying at the center of all those problems,as I see it,is the contradiction between economic growth and the environment.Since the United Nations Earth Summit in1992,growing number of people and governments have adopted the new idea of"sustainable development".This means today's economic growth should not wipe outthe resources and options for future generations.Planning and development should ensure not only economic growth,but also social advancement and environmental health.In other words,some economic behavior must be restricted or controlled.Instilling principles of sustainable development into government planning,resource management and economic policy is the most important step China can take to solve its environmental problems.China has already taken some remarkable steps to reduce damage to the environment.For instance,following the huge floods of1998,the government banned logging in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in order to protect forests and reduce the risk of floods.Still,the basic contradiction between the environment and development persists.Much work is to be done before we can achieve the aim of a balance between economic growth and the environment.Keys:(1)water pollution(2)overconsumption(3)economic growth(4)resources(5)social advancement(6)restricted(7)government planning(8)economic policy(9)remarkable steps(10)balanceTask2:Thick cloud of pollution covering southern AsiaScriptA United Nations study says a thick cloud of pollution covering southern Asia threatens the lives of millions of people.Scientists say the pollution could increase lung disease and cause early death.The cloud is also damaging agriculture and affecting rainfall levels.It has affected many countries in southern Asia.The pollution cloud is three kilometers high. Scientists say it can move halfway around the world in a week.The cloud is the result of forest fires,the burning of agricultural waste, and huge increases in the burning of fuels by vehicles,industries,and power stations.Pollution from millions of bad cooking stoves has made the problem worse.Many poor people burn fuels like wood and animal waste in such stoves. Scientists say the cloud of pollution appears to cool the land and oceans by blocking sunlight.They say it reduces the amount of sunlight reaching the Earth's surface by as much as15percent.At the same time,heat inside the cloud warms the lower parts of theatmosphere.Harmful chemicals from the cloud are mixing with rainfall.This acid rain damages crops and trees and threatens public health. Scientists are concerned that the pollution will intensify during the next 30years as the population of Asia increases to an estimated5,000million people.Keys:1.D2.B3.A4.C5.CTask3:Mountain regions face a number of dangersScriptMountain people around the world are in great danger of the negative effects of the worsening environment,according to a UN report.As global warming and deforestation accelerate and technology makes wilder places more accessible,environmental and social pressures on the world's remotest regions increase.The UN has found that many mountainous regions—inhabited by one out of five of the world's people—are barely recognizable when they are compared to what they were like60years ago.This is mostly because forests were cut to make way for cattle grazing and agriculture.The authors of the UN study expect98percent of the mountain areas to experience severe climate change by2055.Biological losses are expected to be heavy.The mountains of Europe,parts of California and the northwest Andes in South America are among the most threatened mountain areas in the world and should be given priority in conservation.The UN is anxious to raise awareness of the problems facing mountain areas because they are inhabited by some of the most vulnerable people. These people could lose their culture and their livelihood with even the smallest shifts in climate.At the same time,many mountain regions are losing people.Thousands of villages in Europe are deserted most of the year.In other areas like Nepal,people are drifting to the cities in search of work.Keys:(1)negative(2)report(3)warming(4)pressures(5)mountainous(6)barely(7)make way for(8)expect98percent of the mountain areas to experience severe climate change by2055(9)The UN is anxious to raise awareness of the problems facing mountainareas(10)Thousands of villages in Europe are deserted most of the year Viewing and speaking:Task1:Santa's home town in dangerScriptWeather experts may have found a new problem caused by global warming,one which many people will pay attention to:There are signs that Santa's home in the North may be in trouble because of warmer temperatures.The Finnish town of Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle,which many Europeans say is the home of Santa Claus,has had its warmest winter in 40years.As a result,there has been much less snow than usual—meaning no snowmen,no snowballs,and possibly not enough snow for Santa to ride his sleigh on.More important for local residents,it may mean fewer tourists,as well. Santa's wintry home town normally attracts thousands of visitors each year,and millions of dollars.Anne Pelttari-Bergman,the town's tourist director,worries that the town could be in trouble if snow levels do not return to normal.She explains:"Snow is really important for us,of course,for Santa Claus, for Christmas tourism,and also for our winter tourism because winter isour best season.It is really important for us."Weather experts and town residents are hoping this warm winter is an one-time thing.Few people can imagine a holiday when even Santa does not have a white Christmas.Keys:(1)signs(2)warmer temperatures(3)warmest(4)snow(5)attracts(6)trouble(7)normal(8)season(9)one-time(10)whiteTask2:Talk after viewingScriptThe image of Santa Claus flying in a sleigh pulled by reindeer and leaving toys and gifts for every child is known worldwide,and Santa Claus has become the most beloved of Christmas symbols.But if the weather at Santa's home town were to become so warm that there was no more snow at Christmas,Santa Claus would lose his charm.So snow is really important for Santa Claus,for his home town's Christmas tourism,and its winter tourism as winter is the best season in Santa's home town.Unit2testPart IKeys:1.C2.C3.B4.C5.DPart II(1)chemicals(2)atmosphere(3)particles(4)trapped(5)lasts(6)human-based(7)progressed(8)Even in Ancient Rome people complained about smoke put into the atmosphere(9)Air pollution can have serious consequences for the health of human beings(10)Cities with large numbers of automobiles or those that use great quantities of coal often suffer most severely from air pollution problems Part III1.A2.C3.D4.C5.BPart IV1.B2.C3.D4.C5.C6.A7.D8.D9.B10.CUint3Culture makes me what I amTask1:On the first dayCollectivism Individualism Individualism CollectivismII.Basic Listening PracticeKeys:1.B2.A3.D4.B5.AIII.Listening InTask1:Competition in AmericaKeys:1.C2.A3.C4.B5.DTask2:How to select elective courses?Keys:(1)roots(2)what(3)moral(4)diligence(5)sin(6)teachings(7)centuries(8)If it's worth doing at all,it's worth doing well(9)In English a new word has been created to describe people who workcompulsively(10)Others hold that workaholics are valuable members of society because they are extremely productiveTask3:Cross-cultural tips on doing businessKeys:1.D2.A3.D4.A5.CIV.Speaking OutMODEL1MODEL2MODEL3V.Let?ˉs TalkTask1:International Slavery MuseumKeys:1.(1)transatlantic slave trade(2)unknown lands(3)dignity or payment2.(1)rich(2)cotton and sugar3.(1)all over the world(2)family history(3)changed4.200th anniversary5.(1)banned(2)taking part in(3)slavery(4)freedTask2:What's your answer?VI.Further Listening and SpeakingListening Task:Task1:Problems with our educational systemScript:To Americans,punctuality is a way of showing respect for other people's time.Being more than10minutes late to an appointment usually calls for an apology and maybe an explanation.People who are running late often call ahead to let others know of the delay.Of course,the less formal the situation,the less important it is to be exactly on time.At informal get-togethers,for example,people often arrive as much as30 minutes past the appointed time.But they usually don't try that at work.American lifestyles show how much people respect the time of others.When people plan an event,they often set the time days or weeks in advance.Once the time is fixed,it takes almost an emergency to change it.If people want to come to your house for a friendly visit,they will usually call first to make sure it is convenient.Only very close friends will just"drop in"unannounced.Also,people hesitate to call others late at night for fear they might already be in bed.The time may vary,but most people think twice about calling after10:00 p.m.To outsiders,Americans seem tied to the clock.People in some Eastern cultures value relationships more than schedules.In these societies,people don't try to control time,but to experience it. Many Eastern cultures,for example,view time as a cycle.The rhythm of nature—from the passing of seasons to the monthly cycle of the moon—shapes their view of events.If they have wasted some time or let an opportunity pass by,they are not very worried,knowing that more time and opportunities will come in the。

They were symbols of progress and expansion. They played as much of a role in America’s history as presidents and generals.The first American railroads were built in the late 1820’s. The early railroads provided cheap transportation for shippers and travelers. To encourage the railroads to expand into unsettled lands, President Millard Fillmore signed a series of landgrant acts (土地拨赠法案) in the 1850’s. These acts gave the railroad companies ownership of land that ran along the railways. In return for the land, the railroads carried government traffic at reduced rates. The railroad companies sold much of their land to farmers and cattlemen, who then shipped their goods on the trains. The importance of the railroads became clear during the Civil War. During the war, trains carried troops, arms, and supplies. One reason that the North won the war is that it had more use of the railroads.Between 1865 and 1900, railroads grew rapidly. The first transcontinental (跨越全洲的) route was completedin 1869. This track made it easier for pioneers to cross the Rocky Mountains and settle the West. And the railroads brought new people to the West even before the trains started running. Thousands of Chinese and Irish laborers helped to lay down the tracks.When were the first American railroads built according to the passage?所选答案: C.

For each question there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneUpon reaching an appropriate age (usually between 18 and 21 years), children are encouraged, but not forced, to ―leave the nest‖ and begin an independent life. After children leav e home they often find social relationship and financial support outside the family. Parents do not arrange marriages for their children, nor do children usually ask permission of their parents to get married. Romantic love is most often the basis for marriage in the United States; young adults meet their future spouses (配偶) through other friends, at jobs, and in organizations and religious institutions, Although children choose their own spouses, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.In many families, parents feel that children should make major life decisions by themselves. A parent may try to influence a child to follow a particular profession but the child is free to choose another career. Sometimes children do precisely the opposite of what their parents wish in order to assert their independence. A son may deliberately decide not to go into his father’s business because of a fear that he 第 3 页共13 页will lose his autonomy in his father’s workplace. This independence from parents is not an ind ication that parents and children do not love each other. Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in the American family. Coexisting with such love in the American family are cultural values of self – reliance and independence.41. The writer discusses the marriage of young adults in order to show which of the following?A. They enjoy the freedom of choosing their spouses.B. They want to win the permission of their parents.C. They have a strong desire to become independent.D. They want to challenge the authority of their parents.42. Most young adults in the U.S. get married for the sake of __________________.A. loveB. financial concernC. their parentsD. family background43. Based on the passage, it can be assumed that _________________.A. American young adults are likely to follow the suit of their parentsB. most American people never make major decisions for their childrenC. American young adults possess cultural values of independenceD. once a young person steps into his twenties, he will leave his home permanently44. A son is unwilling to work in his father’s business mainly because __________________.A. he wishes to make full use of what he has learnt in schoolB. he wants to prove his independenceC. he wishes to do the opposite of what his parents approve ofD. he wants to show his love for his parents45. The subject matter of this selection is _________________.A. family valuesB. marriage arrangementsC. the pursuit of a careerD. decision makingPassage TwoMore than 30,000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At the speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third-floor window. Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you could be fined up to £50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver’s responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you reversing your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.46. This text is taken from ________.A. a medical magazineB. a police reportC. a legal documentD. a government information booklet第 4 页共13 页47. Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle ________.A. reduces road accidents by more than halfB. saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hourC. reduces the death rate in traffic accidentsD. saves more than 15,000 lives each year48. It is the driver’s responsibility to ________.A. make the front seat passenger wear a seat beltB. make the front seat children under 14 wear a seat beltC. stop children riding in the front seatD. wear a seat belt each time he drives49. According to the text, which of the following people riding in the front does not have to wear a seat belt?A. Someone who is backing into a parking space.B. Someone who is picking up the children from the local school.C. Someone who is delivering invitation letters.D. Someone who is under 14.50. For some people, it may be better ________.A. to wear a seat belt for health reasonsB. not to wear a seat belt for health reasonsC. to get valid medical certificate before wearing a seat beltD. to pay a fine rather than wear a seat beltPassage ThreeWhy do men die earlier than women? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline when they reach middle age.The largest study of the effects of ageing on the hea rt has found that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.―We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,‖ said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.―Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70,one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,‖ said Goldspink. ―This is part of the ageing process.‖What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.―This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men,‖ said Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. ―The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on t he male heart,‖ said Goldspink.第 5 页共13 页The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.51. The underlined word ―longevity‖ in the second paragraph probably refers to ―________‖.A. healthB. long lifeC. ageingD. Effect52. The text mainly talks about ________.A. men’s heart cellsB. women’s ageing process、C. the gender differenceD. hearts and long life53. According to the text, the UK scientists have known that ________.A. women have more cells than men when they are bornB. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beatC. the female heart loses few of the cells with ageD. women never lose their pumping power with age54. If you want to live longer, you should ________.A. enable your heart to beat much fasterB. find out the reason for ageingC. exercise regularly to keep your heart healthyD. prevent your cells from being lost55. We can know from the passage that ________.A. the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found outB. scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cellsC. the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater lossD. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20第 6 页共13 页Passage FourThere are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably, some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual the sort of environment in which he is reared (抚养). If an individual is handicapped environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster (收养) homes. Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Mark's IQ was 125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.56.This selection can best be titled_________.A.Measuring Your IntelligenceB.Intelligence and EnvironmentC.The Case of Peter and MarkD.How the brain Influences Intelligence57.The best statement of the main idea of this passage is that _____.A.human brains differ considerablyB.the brain a person is born with is improtant in determining his intelligenceC.environment is crucial in determining a person's intelligenceD. persons having identical brains will have roughly the same intelligence58.According to the passage , the average I.Q.is _____.A.85B.100C.110D.12559.The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that _______.第7 页共13 页A.individual with identical brains seldom test at same levelB.an individual's intelligence is determined only by his enviromentck of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligenceD.changes of enviroment produce changes in the structure of the brain60.This passage suggests that an individual 's I.Q.______.A.can be predicted at birthB.stays the same throuthout his lifeC.can be increased by educationD.is determined by his childhoodPartⅢCloze (10%)If you were to begin a new job tomorrow, you would bring with you some basic strengths and weaknesses.

u校园quiz3答案新视野⼤学英语(第三版)读写教程2长篇阅读10题,总分值:20分Directions:You are going to read a passage with 10 statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Teens Give up Traditional Summer Jobs to Build Careers(A) Pikesville Josh Borris is working this summer, but he won’t be paid. Completing a second summer as an intern (实习⽣) at Correct Rx Pharmacy Services Inc., he said, is more valuable than earning money at a traditional summer job. “I want to one day be a pharmacist (药剂师) researcher figuring out how drugs interact with the human body,” he said of his summer work at the institutional pharmacy company. “This internship is an exper ience for the future.” Even as fewer teens seek to work during the summer, some like Borris are pursuing internships or other experiences. They hope such experiences will give them a leg up on their intended careers. “Right now, there is pressure on findin g a career,” said John A. Challenger, CEO of the employment-consulting firm. “People worry that there won’t be something for them coming out of school.”(B) But not everyone. Many teenagers simply don’t want to work. Only about a million of the 11 million youths between 16 and 19 who were neither employed nor actively seeking work last year wanted a job, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). The rest, according to surveys conducted by the bureau, said they did not want to work. The percentage of youths in the workforce has declined steadily since 1994, according to the BLS. It hit an all-time low record last year and may be headed even lower this summer.(C) Still, there are jobs for teens – and teens who want to take them. Nearly1.1 million teens found work last summer, up from 960,000 in 2010, according to the BLS. In a report issued in late April, John A. Challenger, CEO of the firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas employment consulting projected more would find jobs this summer, even though they face increased competition from older, more experienced applicants, including people in their 20s looking for any kind of work and “retirees who are seeking low-skilled, low-pressure jobs to supplement their retirement income”. Not counted in the dat a are theteens who win internships. While most internships go to college and graduate school students, some high-schoolers also are in the hunt.(D) “There may be as many as two million interns employed each year,” wrote Ross Eisenbrey, vice president of the Economic Policy Institute, in a report issued May 23. “Experts agree that the internship phenomenon was growing even before the Great Recession and has accelerated since. Yet, few can provide any information on the impact of internships, paid or unpaid, on the labor market or the wages and employment prospects of young people.” More and more teenagers are keen on filling their resumés with work experience beyond the traditional summer jobs of scooping (⽤勺舀) ice cream and waiting tables, Challenger said.(E) Riley Drake, a senior, got an unpaid internship last June at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine through family connections. She still works there on an immunology (免疫学) project, developing and testing tumor-targeted antibodies (抗体). “I was excited to just be a lab monkey,” Drake said, “but I ended up getting to work on my own project. This is valuable because not only am I finding something no one has found before, but I’m learning interpersonal skills, lab skills and how to interact wit h people older than I am.”(F) Yvette Schein, a senior at Baltimore’s Bryn Mawr School, also has used her summers as an opportunity to pursue what interests her: global health. “For the past three summers I’ve gone to Tanzania for five weeks,” she said. “I help with a public health research project called ‘Partnership for the Rapid Elimination of Trachoma’.” Schein’s father, Dr. Oliver Schein, a professor at the Hopkins medical school, connected her with the project but doesn’t go on the trips with her. Her first summer, she mostly handed out forms to patients. The past two years, she performed tests on patients with trachoma, an eye disease. This summer she is going to help map how the disease spreads by marking infected homes with a Global-Positioning Sys tem. “I get to see an entirely different perspective on the world,” she said. “This has changed my life.”(G) Not everyone is fortunate enough to have connections like those. Baltimore has developed a program to find real-world work experience for city te enagers called ‘Baltimore City Youth Works’, which finds paying summer jobs for young people between 14 and 21 in the public and private sectors.The program, which runs from June 25 to August 3, aims to give young people “the chance to put a stamp on what our future workforce will look like,” said Brice Freeman, spokesman for the mayor’s office of employment development. “We’ve secured jobs for around 5,000 people this summer.”(H) Jasmine Lane, a senior at the Academy for College and Career Exploration in Baltimore, got a job through the program at Veolia Transportation, which provides taxi and other public transportation services in the city. She’s worked at the front desk for the company, answering phones, assisting customers, filling out paperwork and taking inventory. “It’s a great program,”Lane said. “It really boosts teens’ skills and gives teens more experience to put on their resumés. When you don’t have experience, you can’t get certain jobs.”(I) Of course, not every teen focuses exclusively on career-oriented experience. Danielle Moses, a junior at Du Bois High School in Baltimore, who has obtained positions through Youth Works in the past, wants a paying job at McDonald’s or at a hairstyling school this summer. “I like having my own money, and a job gives me something to do during the summer,” she said. Still, Moses said, in the future she hopes to pursue a summer job or an internship related to her intended career: nursing. If she does, Moses would be joining what Challenger said is a growing number of teens choosing a career-oriented internship or job. “Jobs right now,” he said, “are trials for future roles.”1)An increasing number of teenagers are more aware of the importance of real-work experience than traditional summer jobs.(D)2)Some teens hope to get a summer job with some payment because they want to have money of their own. I3)According to Challenger, some retired people are also hunting for jobs in order to earn some extra money for their better retirement life.(C)4)Internship is very important for it helps young people master a lot of skills such as how to communicate with other people and how to work in the lab. E5)The number of the young people who don’t want to work is on the rise since 1990s. B6)The experi ence of internship has a big impact on interns’ life, which helps them see the world from a completely different perspective. F7)Quite a few students work as interns in order to gain experience for their future work. A8)According to experts internship first appeared before the Great Recession and since then it has been developing at a faster rate. D9)Some city government has offered a program intended to help young people gain some work experience. G10)Internships are popular among college graduates but there is also a chance for high school students. C参考答案:1) D 2) I 3) C 4) E 5) B 6) F 7) A 8) D 9) G 10) C阅读理解15题,总分值:30分Directions:Read the following passages carefully. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.As the world becomes increasingly populated, it is also becoming alarmingly polluted. We use more resources, producemore waste, and cause more environmental distress than ever before. Fortunately, there are many ways that you can help to counter the negative effects that we force on the environment. One of these is driving an electric car. This benefits not only the environment but also individual drivers.Electric cars produce about 80 percent less pollution than cars with gas-powered motors. In fact, the only reason that electric cars produce any pollution at all is that their electric energy is generated by power plants —electric cars themselves send out no exhaust. When energy comes from large sources such as power plants, it’s easier to regulate and monitor, so there’s less waste than if the energy is generated by many smaller sources, such as the gas engines in individual cars.In addition, electric cars are simply more efficient than gas-powered cars for several reasons. First, electric cars have regenerative breaking, which means that when you use the brakes (刹车) in an electric car, the battery has a chance to recharge. Conversely, when you brake in a gas-powered car, you actually use energy.Also, during the production of electric cars, more time and energy are spent making the design lighter and more powerful so that there will be less drag from the wind. This allows them to travel farther using less energy than a gas-powered car would use to go the same distance.Moreover, electric cars can also save people time. While gas-powered cars require visits to a mechanic every few months, the only routine maintenance required by electric cars is replacing the battery every four years.Overall, there are numerous benefits of driving an electric car. It may take a little getting used to, but in the long run, the use of electric cars can help save the environment and give people more time and money to be put to better use.11)What way is discussed to help reduce environmental distress?A. Using less energy resources.B. Making the world less populated.C. Producing less waste and pollution.D. Driving an electric car.12)Why do electric cars produce much less pollution?A. They are gas-powered which is easy to control.B. Their energy isgenerated through large sources. C. Their energy comes from differentsmaller sources. D. They themselves send out almost no exhaust.13)What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4-5?A. Electric cars are more efficient in structure and design.B. Electriccars are faster than gas-powered cars. C. Though smaller, electric carssave more energy. D. The production of electronic cars is more dynamic.14)How does driving an electric car benefit people?A. Save a lot of money spent on gas.B. Save people a lot of time andmoney. C. Visit a mechanic only every few months. D. Replace the battery only every four years.15)What is the main purpose of the reading passage?A. Convince readers that cars use too much energy.B. Show readershow to improve driving. C. Convince people that electric cars are good.D. Show how the environment can be saved.参考答案:11) D 12) D 13) A 14) B 15) CHave you ever flown? Did you fly to another country to study English? How do you feel about flying? People who have to fly all the time for business usually find it boring. People who fly only once in a while are excited. However, somepeople feel only terror when they board an airplane. They suffer from a phobia, an illogical fear.If you are afraid of poisonous spiders (有毒蜘蛛), this is logical. If you are afraid of all spiders, even harmless ones, this is a phobia because it is illogical. Some people have phobias about heights being shut up in a small or large open area. It’s not logical to be afraid of these things when there is no danger, but a phobia is not logical.Fear of flying is another phobia. We always hear about a plane crash, but we don’t hear about the millions of flights every year that are safe. Riding in a car is thirty times more dangerous than flying, but most of us are not afraid every time we get into a car. It is not logical to be afraid of flying, but research shows that about 12 percent of people have this fear.People with a phobia about flying are afraid for one or more reasons. They are afraid of heights. They avoid high places, and if they are in a high-rise building, they don’t look out the windows.They might be afraid of being in an enclosed place like an elevator or a tunnel on a highway. When they get on an airplane, they can’t get out until the end of the flight, and the flight might last several hours or even more. Maybe they are afraid of the crowds and all the noise and people rushing around at an airport. This especially bothers older people.Some people are afraid of the unknown. They don’t understand the technology of flying and can’t believe th at a huge airplane can stay up in the air. Though some people are afraid of flying, for many people it’s not important because they don’treally need to fly.16)________ usually think flying is boring.A. People who fly once in a whileB. People who fly often on businesstrips C. People who have a phobia about flying D. People who feel terror once they board a plane 17)According to the passage, a phobia refers to ________.A. a chemical that causes terrorB. an illogical way of reactionC. a reliable way of predicting dangerD. a harmful way of thinking18)A person with a fear of enclosed places doesn’t like ________.A. walking on a pathB. staying in high placesC. being in a tunnelD. driving a car by himself19)________ especially bother old people.A. Crowds at airportsB. High-rise buildingsC. Dangerous spidersD. An enclosed place20)What does the author want to say through this passage?A. Riding on a car is much safer than riding on a plane.B. car, thoughsmaller, is more reliable than a plane. C. Travelling by an airplane is notsuitable to everyone. D. It is illogical to be afraid of taking airplanes.参考答案:16) B 17) B 18) C 19) A 20) DWhen important events are happening around the world, most people turn to traditional media sources, such as CNN and BBC, for their news. However, now people can write diaries and post them on a web site, known as a “blog.” Blogs, short for “web-logs,” are online diaries, usually kept by individuals, but sometimes by companies and other groups of people. They are the fastest growing type of web site on the Internet.A blog differs from a traditional web site in several ways. Most importantly, it is updated much more regularly. Many blogs are updated every day, and some are updated several times a day. Also, most blogs use special software or web sites which are specifically aimed at bloggers, so you don’t need to be a computer expert to create your own blog. This means that ordinary people who may find computers difficult to use can easily set up and start writing their own blog.There are many different kinds of blogs. The most popular type is an online diary of links, where the blog writer surfs the Internet and then posts links to sites or new articles that they find interesting, with a few comments about each one. Other types are personal diaries, where the writers talk about their life and feelings. Sometimes these blogs can be very personal. There is another kind of blogging, called “moblogging,” short for “mobile blogging.” Mobloggers use mobile phones with cameras to take photos, which are posted instantly to the Internet. The use of mobile phones in this way made the headlines in Singapore when a high school student posted on the Internet a movie he had taken of a teacher shouting at another student and tearing up the student’s homework. Many people were shocked by the student posting a video of the incident on the Internet.As blogs become more common, news reporting will rely less on big media companies and more on ordinary people posting news to the Internet. Possibly, the news will be less like a lecture and more like a conversation, where anyone can join in. 21)What is the main idea of this passage?A. The history of the Internet.B. The introduction of new types ofmedia. C. The increase in popularity of computers. D. growing number of people writing diaries.22)To start your own blog, what do you need most?A. Special software.B. An Internet account.C. An interestingpoint of view. D. Access to the Internet.23)What is the most significant difference between blogs and traditional web sites?A. Blogs are updated much more often.B. Blogs use special software.C. Blogs contain links to other web sites.D. Blogs contain personal information.24)What is “moblogging”?A. Mobile phones that made the headlines in Singapore.B. Usephones to take photos and then post them online. C. Negative newsposted on the Internet. D. Pictures posted instantly to the Internet.25)According to the passage, which one is most likely to happen in the future?A. Everyone will have a blog.B. Large media companies will beunnecessary. C. People will learn the news from different points of view.D. Blogging technology will be banned.参考答案:21) B 22) D 23) A 24) B 25) C完型填空20题,总分值:30分Directions: There are some blanks in the following passage.

In fact, the brains of teenagersare very different from those of children or adults.Once people believed it was 47) (sensible) that the human brain was fully developed by the age of three. According to this theory, teenager behaviors like risk-taking, a lack of sensitivity to how their actions 48) (affect) both themselves and others, increased aggressive deeds, 49) diminished concentration and a negative attitude were thought to be due to bad parenting or changes in body chemistry.However, new technology has allowed researchers to examine the healthy brain at work.

Coupled with light are the shadows it casts. How often does one notice a painting that may be quite delicately worked, full of details and interest but for all these points it remains a dull, sorry sight? The reason can often be that the light and shade have just not been observed and rendered with truth.This seeing of light and shade in landscapes does need practice; therecan be many shades and gentle features that can be unnoticed. Still, it will not be just a matter of highlights (强彩色) and deep shade. There will be half-tones (中间色调), reflected lights to be sought out and registered.Deep shade can be deceptive (造成假象的)—it is no good just dismissing it as a matter of a dark flat area of color. It is what the artist can paint of the things going on in shadowed areas that marks his class. Take a look at a picture such as The Adoration of the Shepherds by Rembrandt. Within the dark passages are subtle forms, all indicated with as much care as those in the strongly-lit places.There is an Italian word chiaroscuro that means the study of light and shade. This concern with the effects of both can be seen in the handling of many masters.Seeing the actual effects of light and shade is one side of the study—the other is to train the eye to decide exactly what colors are in them. Once more, whenever possible, turn to look at those who have succeeded in the past with the particular problem that is puzzling you.1.According to the passage, there is another important thing thatgoes together with light in picture making. What is it?A. It is the color that the painter uses in the picture.B. It is the shapes of things that the painter paints in the picture.C. It is the modeling in the picture.D. It is the shadows that the light casts.2.According to the passage, a good painter _______.A. paints deep shade as a dark flat area of colorB. paints strongly-lit forms in the shaded partsC. pays careful attention to his dark areasD. pays more care to the strongly-lit parts3.What are the two sides of chiaroscuro?A. Studying both light and shade.B. Studying how light and shade affect things.C. Studying the colors in light and shade.D. Studying the effects of light and shade and the colors in them.4.What does the writer suggest to a painter who is havingproblems?A. He should learn by trial and error (差错).B. He should study the old masters.C. He should be careful about mixing his paints together.D. He should observe his work carefully.Questions 5 to 9 are based on the same passage or dialog.After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had good news to report: The damage and death toll (死亡人数) could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity (强度) that shook America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city's highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes (准则) in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city's buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes. Despite the good news, civil engineers aren't resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图) for improved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations (振动). The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake'svibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.5.One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquakewas comparatively low is that ________.A. new computers had been built into the buildingsB. it occurred in the residential (居住的) areas rather than on thehighwaysC. large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for aholidayD. improvements had been made in the construction of buildingsand highways6.The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to________.A. counterbalance (抵消) an earthquake's action on the buildingB. predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC. help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD. measure the impact of an earthquake's vibrations7.The smart buildings discussed in the passage ________.A. would cause serious financial problemsB. would be worthwhile though costlyC. would increase the complexity of architectural designD. can reduce the ground vibrations caused by earthquakes8.It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing thedamage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on________.A. the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB. the development of flexible building materialsC. the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD. early forecasts of earthquakes9.The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to ________.A. compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred inthe USB. encourage civil engineers to make more extensive use ofcomputersC. outline the history of the development of quake-resistantbuilding materialsD. report new developments in constructing quake-resistantbuildingsQuestions 10 to 14 are based on the same passage or dialog. Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed (供应,分发) among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (极大数量) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility (公用事业) services. The interrelationship of all these prices makes up the system of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.If one were to ask a group of randomly (任意地) selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the buyer and seller should be familiar with not only the money amount, but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment will be made, the form of money to be used, thecredit terms and discounts that apply to the transaction, guarantees (保证) on the product or service, delivery terms, return privilege, and other factors. In other words, both the buyer and seller should be fully aware of all the factors that compose the total "package" being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.10.What is the best title for the passage?A. The Inherent Weaknesses of the Price System.B. The Complexities of the Price System.C. Credit Terms in Transactions.D. Resource Distribution and the Public Sector.11.According to the passage, the price system is related primarily to_____.A. labor and educationB. transportation and insuranceC. utilities and repairsD. products and services12.According to the passage, which if the following is NOT a factorin the complete understanding of price?A. Instructions that come with a product.B. The quantity of a product.C. The quality of a product.D. Warranties (保修证书) that cover a product.13.In the last sentence, the word "they" refers to ______.A. return privilegesB. buyers and sellersC. money and creditsD. all the factors14.The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses______.A. unusual ways to advertise productsB. types of payment plans for serviceC. theories about how products affect different levels of societyD. how certain elements of a price "package" influence itsmarket valueQuestions 15 to 19 are based on the same passage or dialog.I'm 90 years old. The advantage of being 90 is that you can look forward to death. The world is getting noisier, sexier and more horrible by the minute, but at least I can comfort myself with the fact that the end is in sight. Or so I thought. Imagine my anger when I opened the newspaper and discovered they were going to make us live till 130. When you're 60 or 70 the thought of death crosses your mind like a shadow. It disturbs you, it worries you. But by the time you reach my age you hope for it.My body is dying on me. It's horrible. You start to smell—the smell of death—and you can do nothing about it. I can no longer see properly. You go deaf, and people talk to you as if you're a child. Your legs give up on you. Nowadays I spend so much time working out how to avoid making the trip downstairs more than once a day. When I do get out, I can barely walk more than a few yards—and according to those who know me, I'm lucky in good shape for my 90 years.Ah, but the world would be so much wiser, some people say. I'm afraid that's an illusion. As we get older, we lose our wisdom, our mind, and even our language. We would have a world in which no one could communicate because we'd have forgotten how to.No. The absolute nothingness of death is something to look forward to. If I discovered a medicine to make people live until 130, the first thing I'd do is to bury it.15.What is the advantage of being 90 years old?A. You can become sexier.B. You can look forward to death.C. You can enjoy the world more.D. You can hear less noise.16.Why did the speaker get angry?A. He learned people will live longer.B. He learned people will be noisier.C. He learned people will become sexy.D. He learned people will think about death.17.Why is the speaker lucky, according to some?A. He doesn't have to walk much.B. He doesn't need to listen to others.C. He is in good health for his age.D. He is much wiser than before.18.What is an "illusion", according to the speaker?A. That the world has become a better place.B. That the world has become sexier and noisier.C. That old people are happy to live longer lives.D. That old people are wiser than they were before.19.What would he do with a medicine that makes life longer?A. Live 130 years.B. Become wiser.C. Forget where it is.D. Bury the medicine.。
