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

But now, not only are feminist critics and historians rediscovering theheroines of the past, we have also enough real heroines around today to believe our own new dreams of power.Although Madonna’s star might be getting less bright in Britain and America, let us not underestimate her influence. Many young women used to think that being a strong, feminist, demanding woman meant that they might have to give up their claims to be sexual, funny and individualist. But here is someone who is completely in control of her life, her art, her performance. When she grabs her crotch on stage or sells a book o f pin-up pictures of herself, we can see her recreating images that have been used before only to exploit women , and using them to show women that their sexuality is something to be proud of .No wonder of Madonna’s fans are not men but young women. They are responding to this new, real possibility that they can play with fire and may not get burnt. They identify with the fat that Madonna controls all aspects of her art, rather than being the innocent victim.Another female icon whose power has swept through women’s imaginations is Margaret Thatcher. It is all very well for her to say that she does not think she woes the women’s movement anything. What is important for women, whether or not they sympathizes with her methods, politics or rhetoric, is that here was a woman who stood with the men at the G7 summits or in the British Cabinet as a leader among leaders.She is not an icon that is easy to cope with. Just as with Madonna, she goes against the grain of the most traditional images of female power. But by breaking through the male cordons of the British establishment she has made sure that never again can a woman’s ability to run a democratic country be questioned just because she is a woman.31.It can be seen from the passage that Madonna’s influence is _________.A.more and more increasingB.still great in societyC.becoming less and lessD.disappearing as time goes by32.Most of Madonna’s fans are young women because _________.A.she controls all aspects of her life and artB.she sells a book of pin-up pictures of herselfC.she grabs her crotch on stageD.she uses her pictures to show that she is sexy33.It is indicated in the passage that Margaret Thatcher __________.A.became successful because she was the only stateswoman among statesmen.B.Thinks male British leaders should have done more to help womenC.Thinks her success has nothing to do with the women’s movementD.Has donated a large sum of money to the women’s movement34.The example of Margaret Thatcher shows that __________.A.everyone should support the women’s movementB.women should learn to work together with menC.one’s ability should not be judged by sexD.women should not seek to be sexual only35.The main idea of the passage is __________.A.women have gathere d strength from the women’s movementB.women have achieved a new-found powerC.women should take careers to realize their powerD.women’s role should be in the homeReading Comprehension.(B)In science the meaning of the word “explain” suffers with civilization’s every step in search of reality. Science cannot really explain electricity, magnetism, and gravitation; their effects can be measured and predicted, but of their nature no more is known to the modern scientist than to Thales who first speculated on the electrification of amber. Most contemporary physicists reject the notion that man can ever discover what these mysterious forces”really” are. “Electricity”, Bertrand Russell says, “ is not a thing, like St. Paul’s Cathedral; it is a way in which things beh ave. When we have told how things behave when they are electrified, and under what circumstances they are electrified, we have told all there is to tell.” Until recently scientists would have disapproved to such an ideA.Aristotle, for example, whose natural science dominated Western thought for two thousand years, believed that man could arrive at an understanding of reality by reasoning from self-evident principles. He felt, for example, that it is a self-evident principle that everything in the universe has the ground because that’s where it belongs. The goal of Aristotelian science was to explain why things happen. Modern science was born when Galileo began trying to explain how things happen and thus originated the method of controlled experiment which now forms the basis of scientific investigation.36. The aim of the controlled experiment is ___________.A. to explain why things happenB. to explain how things happenC. to form the basis of scientific investigation.D. to prove accepted theories37. What principles most influenced scientific thought for two thousand years?A. Thales’ speculations.B. Self-evident principles.C. Aristotle’s natural science.D. Russell’s theory on electricity.38. Bertrand Russell’s notion about electricity is __________.A. disapproved of by most modern scientistsB. in agreement with Aristotle’s theory of self-evident principlesC. disagreed by Galileo’s theoryD. supported by scientific investigation directed toward “how”things happen39. The passage says that until recently scientists disagreed with the idea that _________.A. man can’t discover what forces “really” areB. there are mysterious forces in the universeC. there are self-evident principlesD. we can discover why things behave as they do40. According to Aristotle, that objects fall to the ground __________.A. is a result of reasoningB. could be explained from self-evident principlesC. is an instance of self-evident principleD. could be tested by experienceReading Comprehension.(C)When John Milto n, writer of“Paradise Lost”, entered Cambridge University, in 1625, he was already skilled in Latin after seven years of studying it as his second language at St. Paul’s School, London. Like all English boys who prepared for college in grammar schools, he had learned not only to read Latin but also to speak and write it smoothly and correctly. His pronunciation of Latin was English, however, and seemed to have sounded strange to his friends when he later visited Italy.Schoolboys gained their skill in Latin in a bitter way. They kept in mind the rules to make learning by heart easier. They first made a word -for -word translation and then an idiomatic translation into English. As they increased their skill, they translated their English back into Latin without referring to the book and then compared their translation with the original. The schoolmaster was always at hand to encourage them. All schoolmasters believed Latin should be beaten in.After several years of study, the boys began to write compositions in imitation of the Latin writers they read. And as they began to read Latin poems, they began to write poems in Latin. Because Milton was already a poet at ten, his poems were much better than those painfully put together by the other boys. During the seven years Milton spent at university, he made regular use of his command of Latin. He wrote some excellent Latin poems, which he published among his works in 1645.41.What does the passage mainly tell about?A. How John Milton wrote“ Paradise Lost”.B. How John Milton studied Latin.C. How John Milton became famous.D. How John Milton became a poet.42.Which of the following is true of John Milton’s pronunciation of Latin?A. It has a strong Italian accent.B. It has an uncommon accent.C. It was natural and easy to understand.D. It was bad and difficult to understand.43.It can be inferred from the passage that________.A. Milton’s training in Latin was similar to that of the other boysB. Milton hadn’t learned any foreign languag e except Latin before going to collegeC. Milton’s Italian friends helped him with Latin when talkingD. Milton's classmates learned Latin harder but worse than Milton44.Which of the following is suggested in the passage?A. The schoolmaster mainly helped those who were bad at Latin.B. The schoolmaster usually stood beside the schoolboys with a stick in his hand.C. The schoolboys could repeat Latin grammar rules from memory.D. Some of the schoolboys were quick at writing compositions in Latin.45.What is the meaning of the underlined part“ Latin should be beaten in”that the writer wishes you to understand?A. Schoolboys should be punished if they were lazy to learn Latin.B. Schoolboys should be encouraged if they had difficulty in learning Latin.C. Schoolboys were expected to master Latin in a short time.D. Schoolboys had to study Latin in a hard way.Reading Comprehension.(D)Between about 1910 and 1930, new artistic movements in European art were making themselves felt in the United States. American artists became acquainted with the new art on their trips to Paris and at the exhibitions in the famous New York gallery “291”( named after its address on Fifth Avenue) of the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. But most important in the spread of the modern movements in the United States was the sensational Armory Show of the 1913 held in New York, in which the works of many of the leading European artists were seen along with the works of a number of progressive American painters.Several of the American modernists who were influenced by the Armory Show found the urban landscape, especially New York, an appealing subject. Compared with the works of the realist painters, the works of American modernists were much further removed from the actual appearance of the city; they were more interested in the “feel “ of the city, more concerned with the meaning behind appearance. However, both the painters of the Ash Can School” and the later realists were still tied to nineteenth-century or earlier styles, while the early modernists shared in the international breakthroughs of the art of the twentieth century.The greatest of these breakthroughs was Cubism, developed most fully in France between1907 and 1914, which brought about a major revolution in Western painting. It overturned the regional tradition that had been built upon since the Renaissance. In cubism, natural forms were broken down analytically into geometric shapes. No longer was a clear differentiation made between the figure and the background of a painting: the objects represented and the surface on which they were painted became one. The Cubists abandoned the conventional single vantage point of the viewer, and objects depicted from multiple viewpoints were shown at the same way.46.What’s the main topic of the passage?A.Modern art movements in the United States.B.The great influence of Cubism.C.Several American modernists found urban landscape an appealing subject.D.Contemporary artists in the United States.47.Which of the following is not mentioned as a means through which American artists learned about new movements?A.Trips to Paris.B.Lectures by European artists.C.The exhibitions in the famous New York gallery “291”.D.The sensational Armory Show in 1913.48.What was exhibited on the sensational Armory Show of 1913 in New York?A.Works of many leading European artists as well as works of many progressive Americanpainters.B.Works of all the European artists and American painters.C.Works of a number of American modernists and painters of the “Ash Can School”.D.Works of European artists only.49.According to the author, which of the following was a major new movement intwentieth-century art?A. Impressionism.B. Cubism.C. The rational tradition.D. Realism.50.What do we know about Cubism?A.It made a clear differentiation between the figure and the background of a painting.B.Natural forms were broken down analytically into shape of a square.C.The object represented and the surface on which they were painted became one.D.The Cubists preserved the conventional single vantage point of the viewer.Reading Comprehension.(E)We are all familiar with magnets. The Chinese knew about them in the eleventh century. But the earth itself is also a magnet, with a magnetic North and a magnetic South.N o one really understands very much about the earth’s magnetism, although many people have written about it. Scientists believe the center of the earth is like an enormous magnet, giving out a steady magnetic force. This slowly moves away from the center and up to the surface. By the time it reaches the surface the force is really very weak.Magnetism is measured by a unit called the gauss. The earth’s magnetic force is much weaker.It measures about 0.7 gauss at the North and South Poles. The weakest point is near Rio de Janeiro at 0.3 gauss.Many scientists now believe the magnetism of the earth may have a strong influence on life itself. In the distant past many kinds of animals and plants died out suddenly, when the North and South magnetic Poles changed position.Animals, birds and even people are to some extent controlled by magnetic forces. When there is a sudden increase in magnetic strength, many animals have difficulty finding their way. Mice ,placed near a strong magnet, lose their hair and die earl y. And when the earth’s magnetism suddenly decreases, the number of men or women who kill themselves increases.How much does the earth’s magnetism control our lives? We can not know for certain. We do know this magnetism is getting weaker and we know that in 2500 years the magnetic poles may change position again. And we know when this happened in the past there were enormous changes in life on Earth.51. Which one of the following statements is true?A.The earth is a magnet with many magnetic poles.B.The earth has a very feeble magnet.C.The Chinese knew about magnets as far back as eleven centuries ago.D.It’s not clear whether the earth’s magnet has any impact on its beings.52. What is true about the center of the earth?A.Science has proved that the center of the earth is an enormous magnet.B.The center of the earth gives out a very weak magnetic force.C.The center of the earth has the strongest magnetic force than elsewhere.D.The magnetic force at the center of the earth is unstable.53. According to the passage, what will happen if the magnetic force of the earth increase suddenly?A.Doves will not be able to find their way back.B.People will commit suicide.C.People will become mad and abnormal.D.Rats will reproduce very rapidly.54.According to the passage, the magnetic force of the earth _________.A.is controlling more and more peopleB.is disappearing little by littleC.is becoming weaker and weakerD.is hard to predict55. What does the author imply in the last sentence of the passage?A.There will be great changes in life in the future.B.Animals will die out in the future.C.The human race will die out in 2500 years.D. The earth will meet its ruin.三、完形填空(每题20分,共1题)Family time is one of the most important times in a child’s life.My family and I 56 a lot of time together,including every 57 .Even when my father is 58 on business,my mother,my sister,and I sit down at the table to eat and 59 our day.We don’t watch television but have 60 together.As a teenager,61 with my parents is not the most fun thing I do but I feel it is necessary.I learn from them 62 we talk, whether it is about my dad’s job or my mother’s day.I did a little research on the “family table” 63 .Statistics show that only 50% of 64 sit down to dinner together each night.That’s a65 ,because researchers 66 that kids who have these regular family dinners have 67behavior,grades,and a larger vocabulary.They are also less 68to smoke,drink,do drugs,or have eating disorders Time with their parents makes kids more 69 and gives them a sense of 70 and safety.Plus,they learn better manners.Now with many single-parent families or homes 71 both parents work,making time together has become harder.There have been many recent studies showing kids are“ 72 ”than they used to be.I think it’s primarily parents’73 .Only good things 74 taking 15 minutes away from television and five minutes from video games to have this time with your family.By spending 20 minutes with 75 ,I believe this idea of “wild kids” would decrease greatly.56.A.spend B.pass C.take D.cost 57.A.morning B.dinner C.weekend D.party 58.A.away B.lonely C.back D.alone 59.A.welcome B memorize C.discuss D.remember 60.A.snacks B.meal C.sports D.fun 61.A.putting up B.getting up C.keeping up D.hanging out 62.A.every time B.before C.some time D.since63.A.plan B.manner C.idea D.project 64.A.parents B.sisters C.brothers D.families 65.A.wonder B.shame C.miracle D.worry 66.A.suppose B.claim C.assume D doubt 67.A.higher B.worse C.lower D.better 68.A.unlikely B.probably C.likely D.impossibly 69.A.stubborn B.nervous C.silent D.stable 70.A.belonging B.anxiety C.honor D.achievement 71.A.whose B.where C.that D.which 72.A.smarter B.quicker C.wilder D.slower 73.A.duty B.fault C.power D.burden 74.A.come out B.contribute to C.come from D.result in 75.A.the other B.another one C.the rest D.each other大学英语1A答案一、单项选择题(每题1分,共30题)1.

(阅读理解题)Many visitors finds the fast pace at which American people move very troubling. One’s first impression is likely to be that everyone is in a rush. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going and are very impatient if they are delayed even for a brief moment. At first, this may seem unfriendly to you. Drivers will rush you; storekeepers will be in a hurry as they serve you; people will push past you as they walk along the street. You will miss smiles, brief conversations with people as you shop or dine away from home. Do not think that because Americans are in such a hurry they are unfriendly. Often, life is much slower outside the big cities, as is true in other countries as well. Americans who live in cities such as New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles, often think that everyone is equally in a hurry to get things done; they expect others to “push back”, just as city people do in Tokyo, Singapore or Paris, for example. But when they discover that you are a stranger, most Americans become quite kindly and will take great care to help you. Many of them first came to the city as strangers and they remember how frightening a new city can be .If you need help orwant to ask a question, choose a friendly looking person and say, “I am a stranger here. Can you help me?”Most people will stop, smile at you, and help you find you way or answer your questions. But you must let them know that you need help. Otherwise they are likely to pass you by, not noticing that you are new to the city and in need of help. Occasionally, you may find someone too busy or perhaps too rushed to give you aid. If this happens, do not be discouraged; just ask someone else. Most Americans enjoy helping a stranger.(1). (单选题) Many people who first visit the United States will find that _______.(本题2.0分)A、America is a highly developed countryB、American city people seem to be always in a rushC、the fast pace in American life often causes much troubleD、Americans are impatient and unfriendly people学生答案: B标准答案:B解析:得分: 2(2).

(阅读理解题)Many people think that when they become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth. The world is full of very richpeople who are as miserable as if they were living in hell. We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems. Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness. Lottery winnings do not bring happiness. Gambling winnings do not bring happiness. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort. If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means, you will know that it is ill-earned money. If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, you will not be happy with it. You will think you are a base person. Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem. Happiness is not an end; it is a process. It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” There is no use saying “Someday when I achieve these goals, when I get a car, build a house and own my own business, then I will be really happy.” Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life tomake you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something missing.(1).

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

That is quite true; but why do they learn these things?And are these things 4)_____ that they learn at school?We 5)____ our children to school to 6)_____ them for the time 7)_____ they will be big and will have to work 8)_____ themselves.

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.

示例[A] [B] [C] [D]Passage 1Are you nervous? Maybe you should sit in a blue room. Are you always cold? Maybe you should sit in a room painted in a warm color such as soft orange. Are you often sad? Maybe you should sit in a yellow room. Some researchers believe that color has the power to affect our feelings. They believe that colors affect almost everyone in the same way. They tested the idea in different settings.One study was done in a workplace. The researchers painted heavy boxes white and light boxes black. They wanted to see how color affected the workers' feelings. Which boxes do you think were more difficult to lift? The heavy white ones? No. The black boxes were more difficult. The white boxes were heavier but they looked light. The researchers think that this is because light colors seem light.Another study was done at a hospital with brown and dark green walls. Painters repainted the hospital walls in bright colors — bright orange on the first floor, bright pink on the second, bright green on the third. Guess what happened? The patients changed. They visited each other and talked more. The workers also changed and were happier about their work.Another study was done at a school. Researchers at the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Canada, studied children with behavior problems in their classroom. When the walls were brown and yellow, the children's heart rates went up and they were overactive. When the walls were light and dark blue, the children's heart rates were slower and the children were much calmer.If this is true, people might start to think carefully about the colors around them—not just in houses, but also in offices, in schools, in hospitals, in gyms, in prisons, in museums, and in6. What is the main idea of this article?A. Children are calmer in light blue rooms.B. If you are sad, sit in a yellow room.C. A heavy box seems light if it has a light color.D. Colors affect people's feelings.7. Which of the following places is NOT mentioned in the examples to show how colors affect people's feelings?A. Hospital.B. Workplace.C. Restaurant.D. School.8. Colors such as red, yellow, and soft orange make people feel _______.A. coldB. warmC. sadD. tired9. Blue makes people feel _______.A. warmB. calmC. nervousD. active10. A dark colored box looks _______than a light colored box.A. lighterB. heavierC. softerD. biggerPassage 2Mr. Brown was going away for a week. Before he left, he said to his son, “if anyone asks for me, you can tell him that your father has been out for doing something, and will be back in a week, then be sure to ask him to sit down for a cup of tea.”“OK, Dad,” said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn’t remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.Four days passed, but no one came to see his father.
