For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best answer or the best choice to complete the statement and write the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.(40 points, 2 points each)Passage 1When you’re negotiating with someone, listen for the messages that he or she might be sending to you. For example, the word “difficult”does not mean the same as impossible. Imagine you’re staying in a hotel, and you want to change your room. The manager’s answer of,“That would be very difficult, sir”,does not mean that he is saying “no.”It just means that he wants to know what you are prepared to offer him in return for the change of room.If you are buying a new car, and want to pay less than the price being asked, then the salesman’s comment, “I’m sorry, but we never negotiate on the price”, means that they do negotiate on other things, like the delivery time, or the “extra”that might be available as part of the purchase. In the same car showroom, if the salesman says, “Sorry, I can’t negotiate prices”, then your response should be to ask who can. The message the salesman is sending suggests that his boss is the one you need to be talking to.In all of these situations, the message is never communicated in clear terms. In any negotiation, the two “players”wish to get as much out of it as they can, of course. In the three examples above, the salesmen and the hotel manager are hoping that you will accept their price or conditions —but their “messages”make it clear that there may be room for movement and compromise. In a successful negotiation, the two sides move towards each other and reach agreement on conditions that satisfy both sides.21.The hotel manager’s answer “That would be very difficult, sir”implies .A.you can change the room if you find some excuseB.someone else has paid more for the room under discussionC.the room is available if an extra sum of money is offeredD.someone else has booked the room in return for more money22.When the salesmen tell you that they never negotiate on the price, you can . A.negotiate the price with the managerB.demand to see the one who canC.find out other possibilities in the purchaseD.accept the price without any further negotiation23.This passage is intended for .A.managers B.customers4C.salesmen D.scholars24.The passage tells us how to .A.send massages in a negotiationB.become a successful salesmanC.profit from business transactionsD.receive messages in a negotiation25.It can be safely concluded from the passage that .A.at least two players should be in the room for communicationB.a lot can be inferred from what is actually stated in a negotiationC.you should never communicate your ideas in clear termsD.you should play the roles of a salesman and manager in a negotiationPassage 2Following football hero O.J.Simpson’s arrest in June 1994 for the murder of his ex-wife and one of her friends, Newsweek and Time magazines ran the same police mug shot of Simpson on their covers. Newweek’s version was a straight reproduction. Time electronically manipulated the photo to darken it and achieve a gloomy and threatening look that emphasized Simpson’s unshaven cheeks and African-American skin color. The alteration offended many readers and raised an increasingly familiar question: In an age of computer-controlled images, can anyone still trust a photograph?Altering a digitized image(数码技术相片), as Time did for its cover, has been one of the fastest-growing, most far-reaching, and most controversial(有争议的) techniques in contemporary photography. With this method a photograph is scanned(扫描), digitized (converted into a set of numeric values), and entered into a computer from which the operator can control the image almost in any way imaginable: add, delete, or change the position of visual elements; modify tones and colors; create montages; combine photographs; and even create entirely imaginary scenes. The digitized image can be stored in a data base, output as a print(底片) or transparency(透明胶片), or converted for video-screen display.Electronic image manipulation arrived in force in the 1980s with a new type of computers that cost on the order of $500,000 or more and occupied and entire room. More compact and far less expensive desktop systems soon appeared, capable of, at least, limited image control and available at chain-store prices.The ever-rising flood of digitized visual information may not, as some critics fear, fatally destroy the certainty of photographic evidence. Yet many observers agree that both suppliers and consumers of photographic information must exercise greater care than before to tell fact from falsehood in the images they use.526.Which of the following magazines was accused of distorting the murderer’s photograph by many readers?A.Time. B.Newsweek.C.Washington Post. D.Not mentioned in the passage27.Nowadays, electronic image alterations are .A.unbearably expensiveB.more expensive in the StatesC.only available in chain storesD.far less expensive than before28.The digitized alteration technique is .A.developing with great careB.very capable and developing rapidlyC.strongly criticized due to its easy accessD.fatal in destroying the certainty of photographic evidence29.According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A.With digitized alteration techniques, a photograph may be scanned, digitized and altered. B.With digitized alteration techniques, the digitized images can be stored in a data base or transformed for video-screen display.C.With digitized alteration techniques, both suppliers and consumers of photographic information are able to tell fact from falsehood in the image they use.D.With digitized alteration techniques, it is possible for the computer operators to control the image almost in any conceivable way.30.W hat is the author’s attitude toward the technique of digitized image manipulation? A.Critical. B.Objective.C.Indifferent. D.Supportive.Passage 3The importance of symbols as a source of cultural diversity can be seen in the dress codes and hairstyles of different societies. In most situations, the symbolism of clothing and hairstyles communicates different messages ranging from political beliefs to identification with specific ethnic or religious groups. The tartan(格子呢) of a Scottish clan, the black leather jacket and long hair of a motorcycle gang member in the United States, and the veil of an Islamic woman in Saudi Arabia provide a symbolic vocabulary that creates cultural diversity.Many examples of clothing styles could be used to illustrate how symbols are used to produce cultural diversity. Consider, for instance, changing dress codes in the United States. During the 1960s, many young people wore jeans, sandals, and beads to symbolize their rebellion against6what they conceived as the conformist inclinations of American society. By the 1980s, many of the same people were wearing “power suits”as they sought to advance up the corporate ladder.An example of how hairstyles can create meaningful symbolic codes can be seen in a group known as the Rastafarians(sometimes known as Rastas or Rastaman) of Jamaica. The majority of the people of Jamaica are of African descent. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, they were brought to Jamaica by European slave traders to work on plantations. The Rastafarians are a specific religious group within Jamaica who believe that Haile Selassie(1892-1975), the former emperor of Ethiopia, whose original name was Ras Tafari, was the black Messiah who appeared in the flesh for the redemption of all blacks exiled in the world of white oppression. Rastafarian religion fuses Old Testament teachings, Christian mysticism, and Afro-Jamaican religious beliefs. The Rastafarian movement originated as a consequence of harsh economic, political, and living conditions in the slums of Jamaica.In the 1950s, during the early phase of the Rastafarian movement, some male members began to grow their hair in “locks”or “dreadlocks”to symbolize their religious and political commitments. This hairstyle became well known in Western society through reggae(强节奏黑人音乐) music and Rasta musicians such as the late Bob Marley. Rastafarians derive the symbolism of the dreadlock hairstyle of the Rastafarians from the Bible. They view the unshaven man as the natural man and invoke Samson as one of the most important figures in the Bible. Dreadlocks also reflect a dominant symbol within the Rastafarian movement, the lion, which is associated with Haile Selassie, one of whose titles was the “Conquering Lion of Judah(犹大).”To simulate the spirit of the lion, some Rastas do not cut their hair, sometimes growing their locks 20 inches or more.Thus, to a great extent, culture consists of a network of symbolic codes that enhance values, beliefs, worldviews, and ideologies within a society, Humans go to a great length to create symbols that provide meaning for individuals and groups. These symbolic meanings are a powerful source of cultural diversity.31.What is the main idea of this selection?A.Hairstyles and dress codes identify political beliefs in diverse societies.B.The Rastafarian movement symbolized a religious and political commitment.C.Symbols provide meaning and a satisfaction of biological needs in society.D.Hairstyles and dress codes can be important symbols of cultural diversity in different societies.32.The author uses the examples of the Scottish tartan, the motorcycle jacket, and the Islamic veilto show .A.the political power of dress codes in different societies7B.the diversity of clothing styles throughout the worldC.dress codes that symbolize different ethnic and religious groupsD.the resistance to change of culturally different groups33.The author suggests that the young people wearing jeans in the 1960s wore “power suits”inthe 1980s because .A.styles changed B.the American government changedC.their attitudes and goals changed D.both outfits symbolized rebellion34.All of the following are true of the Rastafarians EXCEPT .A.they believe that Emperor Haile Selassie was the black MessiahB.they are the original natives of JamaicaC.they are a religious group with political commitmentsD.they formed as a result of harsh living conditions in Jamaica35.The Rastafarian movement began .A.at the beginning of the nineteenth centuryB.around the middle of the twentieth centuryC.before European slave traders arrivedD.in the early eighteenth centuryPassage 4A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic(虐待狂的) impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seem to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are , I think, well-authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do8not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of madmen attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted girlfriend.No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane child has ever believed that it was.36.The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is .A.repeated without variation B.treated with respectC.adapted by the parent D.set in the present37.Fairy stories are a means by which children’s impulses may be .A.beneficially channeled B.given a destructive tendencyC.held back until maturity D.effectively suppressed38.According to the passage great fear can be stimulated in a child when the story is . A.in a realistic setting B.heard for the first timeC.repeated too often D.dramatically told39.The advantage claimed for repeating a fairy story to young children is that it . A.makes them come to terms with their fearsB.develops their power of memoryC.convinces them there is nothing to be afraid ofD.encourages them not to have ridiculous beliefs40.The author’s mentioning of broomsticks and telephones is meant to suggest that . A.fairy stories are still being made upB.there might be confusion about different kinds of truthC.people try to modernize old fairy storiesD.there is more concern for children’s fears nowadaysIII.SKIMMING AND SCANNINGIn this part there are 3 reading passages followed by 10 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 answers marked A,B,C and D. Skim or scan the passages, then decide on the best answer or the best choice to complete the statement and write the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.(10 points,1 point each)Passage 1When we call someone a pig or a swine, we do not mean it as a compliment. But pigs do not deserve to be used as a symbol for an insult. They are probably not as dirty as they are made out to be. According to one pig keeper, swine are very clean when allowed to live in a clean environment. He feels pigs are usually dirty simply because their keepers don’t clean their pens. In any case, no one has proven that the pig that wallows in mud prefers that to a cool bath. Furthermore, pigs are smarter than most wallows in mud prefers that to a cool bath. Furthermore, pigs are smarter than9most people think. Many farmers, for example, have observed that pigs frequently undo complicated bolts on gates in search of adventure or romance. So the next time you call someone a pig, perhaps he or she ought to be someone you wish to praise.41.This passage deals with .A.the reasons why pigs are dirtyB.people’s wrong perceptions of pigsC.how to insult or compliment peopleD.why people like to keep pigs42.One pig keeper feels that pigs will stay clean if they are .A.given cool baths every dayB.praised from time to timeC.kept in a clean environmentD.allowed to seek adventure or romance43.The detail that pigs “can undo complicated bolts on gates”supports the opinion that . A.pigs sometimes can be adventurousB.pigs are generally misunderstood by peopleC.pigs are also mischievous and romanticD.pigs are smarter than most people thinkPassage 2The large, gleaming refrigerator is the focal point of most American kitchens. It holds enough food to last many days. It is cold enough to preserve that food well. Its advantages are clear. But that big refrigerator has its drawbacks as well, although they are not usually recognized. First of all, the large refrigerator encourages the hoarding of food, obesity and other eating problems. Also, it has destroyed the pleasant custom, still common in Europe, of going to market each day. Picking out one’s fresh produce daily while cha tting with friends and neighbors is no longer a part of our lives. In addition, people’s desire to buy huge amounts of groceries just a few times a month has encouraged the growth of supermarkets and destroyed local grocery stores. Another victim of the gi ant refrigerator has been small local farmers, who can’t compete against the mega-producers favored by the supermarkets.44.According to the passage, which of the following is regarded by the author as one of the victims of the “giant refrigerator”?A.The supermarkets. B.The local grocery stores.C.The American kitchens D.The mega-producers45.From this passage, you could infer that many Europeans .A.are more economical shoppers than AmericansB.are better cooksC.enjoy eating moreD.don’t h ave “giant”refrigerators1046.The author’s tone in this passage is mainly .A.cheerful B.depressingC.critical D.optimistic47.The passage mainly deals with .A.the advantages of shopping patterns in EuropeB.disadvantages and advantages of large refrigeratorsC.fresh, healthy produce and daily meeting with friendsD.wonderful modern kitchen appliancesPassage 3Urbanization and industrialization demanded new directions in education. Public education, once a dream, now becomes a reality. Education was forced to meet new social changes. American society was getting much more complex; literacy became more essential. Secondary education, which had been almost totally in the hands of private individuals up to the time of the Civil War, gradually became a public concern. By the early 1900s there were over 7000 high schools, totaling an enrollment of over 1 million. Technological changes demand more vocational training. Subjects such as bookkeeping, typing, agriculture, woodworking, and metalworking were introduced into the curriculum. American education finally was becoming universal.Higher education also responded to the need for more and different education. The Morril Act of 1862 established state land grant colleges that taught agricultural methods and vocational subjects. While curriculums included a large number of required courses during the first two years of college, more elective subjects were added during the last two years. In 1876 Hopkins University instituted America’s first gradu ate school for advanced study. In general, American education began to respond to the complexities of the industrial age and the need for a new focus in education.48.One factor, repeatedly emphasized in the passage, is that .A.technological changes demanded more vocational trainingB.teaching methods were also changingC.higher education also responded to the need for more different educationD.education was forced to meet new social changes49.Literacy became more essential because .A.American public education was far from enoughB.American society was growing more complexC.the public was concerned about secondary educationD.far fewer subjects were introduced into the school curriculum50.In the last paragraph of the passage, the word “instituted”means .A.set up B.provided11C.set forth D.preparedPART TWO (30 POINTS)IV.WORD FORMATIONSComplete each of the following sentences with the proper form of the word given in the brackets.

(本大题共10 小题,每小题 2 分,共 20 分 )Passage 1A mile or so before they reached Oxford, they stopped the car on top of a hill from whichthey could see the whole of the city spread out before them. The spires and the domes, the college walls and towers looked as peaceful as when they were first built, hundreds of years ago.When they drove down, over the River Thames and into the city centre, they found it was not so peaceful after all! The main streets were packed with traffic: cars, lorries, coaches full of tourists and the bicycles which the students use to get about. But as soon as they had managed to park the car and get away from the roaring traffic, they discovered a completely different world. Narrow cobbled streets which had hardly changed since the Middle Ages ran between the highcollege walls of grey or yellow stone. Inside the great double gates of each college they found quiet squares of grass, surrounded by the chapel, the library, the dining-hall and the rooms where the students and teachers live. Many colleges had the most beautiful gardens where one could sit and read, talk, work or dream.Most of the students, or undergraduates, wore informal clothes: sports coats, or pullovers, and slacks. But some of them were wearing their black gowns. George explained that they had to wear these when going to lectures or to their weekly meeting with their tutor, or teacher. Tom and Anne were very surprised to see a few young men dressed in formal black suits, with ties, gownsand scholars ’ caps. Anne asked whatever they were doing, wearing evening dress in the morning! George laughed and said that this was the official dress for taking examinations, many of which3were held in June.In one college, they visited the dining-hall. It was enormous with a high roof held up by great wooden beams with windows of stained glass as in a church, and long heavy tables and benches. At one end was the “ High Table ”, which is usually reserved for the Head of the college and the teachers. It really was high, raised on a wooden platform above the level of the rest of the hall. An undergraduate may sit at the High Table once on the day when he has passed all his examinations, takes his degrees and becomes a graduate.21.They stopped the car on top of a hill because _______.A. the spires and domes looked peacefulB. they wanted to see OxfordC. they wanted to take a restD. the old college walls looked different22.Before they got away from the roaring traffic, they _______.A. succeeded in parking their carB. found a car parkC. tried to park their carD. failed to park their car23.Most of the undergraduates were wearing _______.A. suits, caps and gownsB. black gownsC. sweaters or sports jacketsD. vests and slacks24.George told Tom and Anne students wore black gowns _______.A. only when they were on their way to lecturesB. when meeting with their tutor once aweek C. on their way to the libraryD. when they were in the chapel25.An undergraduate may sit at the High Table on the day he _______.A. receives his degreesB. passes his examsC. takes his examsD. leaves schoolPassage 2An ideal design for a toothbrush has not been invented. Dentists have put forward many4different designs over the years and each has its advantages. We all know the problems of tryingto clean less accessible areas, where it is difficult to see and space is restricted. In trying to cleanthe backs of our lower front teeth and our wisdom teeth we have produced toothbrushes with every type of bend in the handles and curve on the surface of the bristles( 猪鬃、毛发 ). Added tothis there is the choice of natural bristle or nylon for the heads of the toothbrush.After numerous tests it has been found that there is no difference in effectiveness betweenthe natural and artificial bristle. In fact, dentists are finding more advantages with the nylon toothbrush. Nylon bristle is said to last longer, is more easily cleaned and harbours fewer germs.The individual nylon bristles tend to be more consistent in texture and do not become soft. The bristles, moreover, do not split as is the case with natural bristle.The main advantage of natural bristles appears to be that they are more resilient( 有弹性的 ) when new. Another controversy is the appearance of hard, medium and soft toothbrushes. We are told that certain hard brushes are good for smokers and promote healthy gums. Once again the publicity is misleading, starting with the conception that hardness means a bristle of a tougher substance. This is not so, for a hard toothbrush is one in which the diameter of the bristles is greater, thus making the brush more rigid. This causes problems because the gums are easily injured and the tooth surface is more easily worn away by this type of brush. In fact, too muchpressure and the wrong technique with a hard brush can cause much damage to the teeth and gums. As the bristles are thicker, they cannot get into the narrow openings so easily. The only advantage of this type of brush is that it lasts longer. In general, therefore, a hard toothbrush is not recommended unless used with extreme care. It is much more advisable to use a medium or soft bristle toothbrush. They don’ t have a very long life, andmentreplaceisnecessary as soon as the bristles split or fall out.26.According to the passage, the artificial bristle is _______.A.more effective than the natural oneB.less effective than the natural oneC.just as effective as the natural oneD.firmer and cleaner than the natural one27.Which of the following, according to the passage, is an advantage of the nylon toothbrush?A.The bristles split more easily.5B. The bristles are free from germs.C. The bristles always stay firm.D. The bristles last longer.28. A hard brush is _______.A. a brush with hard bristlesB. a brush with thick bristlesC. good for smokersD. good for the gums29. The wrong technique with a hard brush means _______.A. the wrong use of brushB. too much pressureC. the wrong sort of brushD. the wrong toothbrush30.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A.A hard brush is all right if you use it firmly.B.A medium brush is recommended as the bristles last longer.C.A soft brush will soon need replacing.D.A brush that is a mixture of medium and soft bristles is recommended.III .用国际音标标出下列单词中划线字母或字母组合的读音,并填在答题纸相应的位置上。
