How could this happen? People used to think that hard work is the only way to success. But now they have understood that smart work can make them succeed too.Hard workers don’t mind working for long hours, while smart workers always think of several different answers to these questions, such as “Why should I suffer this?” or “ Isn’t there a better way to do this?”Thanks to these people, we can use computers instead of the abacus now. progress in every field is the direct result of “trying to find a better way” by smart workers.There was a large soap factory in Japan. Once it received an unusual letter from someone who complained that there was no soap in the soap in the soapbox he bought.How could empty soapboxes go out of the factory? The engineers checked the producing and packing. The producing was fine, but in about ten thousand soapboxes, the packing machine let an empty soapbox go. There was no need to spend a lot of money repairing the machine for such a small problem. The engineer soon worked out a solution. He put a huge X-ray machine and two large computers to find out the empty soapboxes. After teaching the workers how to use it, he sat down in his seat, exhausted. “Sir, we could have solved the problem in a much simpler and cheaper way, ” a worker said.“Really? How?”“We can put a huge fan near the packing machine. The wind coming from the fan will blow away the empty boxes, leaving the other boxes with soap. ”See, this is smart work. In order to succeed, we should not only work hard like the engineer, but also think smart like this worker.Some students spend less time on school work but do better in exams because they study longer.A、 TB、 F答案:BThe passage mainly tells us we should work hard like the engineer and think smart like the worker.A、 TB、 F答案:AThe soap factory could only put a huge fan near the packing machine to solve problem in a much simpler and cheaper way.A、 TB、 F答案:AThe underlined phrase “blow away” means “停止” in Chinese.A、 TB、 F答案:BSomeone wrote to the soap factory and complained that the soapbox he bought was terrible.A、 TB、 F答案:A【46】 The English language started about 1,500 years ago in England. Three groups of people came to the country. They were the Angles, the Saxons, and the Jutes. These three groups brought their languages with them to the country.After some time, the three languages became one new language —English. The name “English” comes from the Angles. They lived in most of England. The language that we speak today—Modern English is not the same as the English that people used 1,500 years ago, including Old English (before 1150) and Middle English (up till 1500). That language—Old English sounds different, and it has some different rules of grammar. There were only a few thousand words in Old English. But Modern English does come from Old English, and it is still like it in many important ways. When did Modern English start?A、 About the year 1150.B、 Between the 12th century and the 16th century.C、 About the year 1500.D、 Before the year 1500.答案:CHow many languages did Old English come from?A、 One.B、 Two.C、 Three.D、 Four.答案:CWhich language did the name “English” come from?A、 The Saxons.B、 The Jutes.C、 The Angles.D、 Modern English.答案:CAccording to the passage, Modern English is different from Old English in____.A、 grammarB、 pronunciationC、 wordsD、 all the above答案:DWhich of the following is TRUE?A、 Modern English has nothing to do with Old English.B、 Modern English has more words than Old English.C、 Modern English has fewer words than Old English.D、 There is no difference between Old English and Modern English.答案:B【47】 Camp Broadway is a children’s camp in the United States.

They are ways of showing kindness.My husband,Bob,is a pilot,and one day we were invited to a potluck (百味餐) at his flying squadron(飞行中队). The noisy room was filled with mouthy kids and their chatting moms and dads. Our son,Daniel, was only two years old. We let him play with the other kids because it was a safe environment.After a while,he came back with a package of peanut butter crackers and proudly held them out to us. A pilot who asked “Do you know whose this little boy is?”followe d him.“He is mine,” I answered, wondering what Daniel might have done.“Well,” replied the pilot, “I've been passing out crackers to the kids for almost two hours,and your son is one of the youngest guys I gave them to. He's the only one who said 'Thank you'. What he did makes me pleased.”Daniel smiled and proudly repeated,“Thank you.”6.Pilots and their family were invited to the potluck.A.TB.F答案:A7.Daniel felt very excited when he showed his crackers to his parents.A.TB.F答案:B8.For nearly two hours at least, the pilot served at the party when he found Daniel.A.TB.F答案:A9.Only one kid said “Thank you” to the man when he gave the kids crackers.A.TB.F答案:A10.The pilot felt surprised when he heard the boy said “Thank you”.A.TB.FWhat makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is “no”. It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientist’s knowledge must be exact. There is no ro om for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the Theory of Relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, and Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.11.What makes a scientist according to the passage? ________A.The tools he uses.B.The way he uses his tools.C.His ways of learning.D.The various tools he uses.答案:B12.The underlined part in the passage shows_______.A.the importance of informationB.the importance of thinkingC.the difference between scientists and ordinary peopleD.the difference between carpenters and people with other jobs答案:C13.A sound scientific theory should be one that _________.A.works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under the same conditions at other timesB.does not allow any changes even under different conditionsC.can be used for many purposesD.leaves no room for improvement答案:A14.The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to illustrate __________.A.that measurements are keys to success in scienceB.that accuracy of mathematicsC.that investigations are important in scienceD.that the mathematical calculations may test his investigations答案:C15.What is the main idea of the passage? ________A.The theory of relativity.B.Exactness is the core of science.C.Scientists are different from ordinary people.D.Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist. 答案:D三、词汇与语法16.The man ______Mary was so tall that she could hardly see the show.A.in front ofB.in the front ofC.at the back ofD.at the beginning of答案:A17.Jane likes singing.

B.不同的国家的人对送礼的态度各不相同。

Reading Comprehension(A)Public goods are those commodities whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively excluded. Everybody is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities, and one person’s utilization does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else’s enjoying the same good.Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect. A flood control dam is a public good. Once the dam is built, all persons living in the area will benefit—irrespective of their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam. The same holds true for high way signs or aids to navigation. Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from the utilization of the lighthouse for navigation purposes. National defense is another example. Even a person who voted against military expenditures or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded.It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefit associated with a public good. There is no practicable way of charging drivers for looking at high way signs, sailors for watching a lighthouse and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense. Because the market does not provide the necessary signals, economic analysis to be substituted for the impersonal judgment of the marketplace.1, What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Mechanisms for safer navigationB. The economic structure of the marketplaceC. A specific group of commoditiesD. The advantage of lowering taxes2.Which of the following would NOT be an example of a public good as described in the passage?A. A taxicabB. A bridgeC. A five truckD. A stoplight3.In Paragraph 2, the word “holds” could best be replaced by which of the following?A. hasB. isC. graphsD. carries4.According to the passage, finding out the social cost of a public good is a ____.A. difficult procedureB. daily administrative dutyC. matter of personal judgmentD. citizen’s responsibility5.Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the first paragraphs?A.Suggestions for the application of an economic concept are offeredB.Several generalizations are presented from which various conclusions are drawnC.Persuasive language is used to argue against a popular ideaD.A general concept is defined and then examples are given(B)Adam Smith, writing in the 1770s, was the first person to see the importance of the division of labor and to explain part of its advantages. He gives as an example the process by which pins were made in England.One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, a fifth grinds it at the top to prepare it to receive the head. To make the head requires two or three distinct operations. To put it on is a separate operation, to polish the pins is another. It ids even a trade by itself to put them into the paper. And the important business of making pins is, in this manner, divided into about eighteen distinct operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them.Ten man, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4800 pins apiece. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor they certainly could not reach each of them have madetwenty pins a day and perhaps not even one.There can be no doubt that division of labor provided that it is not taken too far is an efficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this but he also took it for granted that division of labor is in itself responsible for economic growth and development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But division of labor adds nothing new; it only enables people to produce more of what they already have..1.According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to ______.A. take advantage of the division of laborB. introduce the division of labor into EnglishC. understand the effects of the division of laborD. explain the causes of the division of labor2. Which of the following was believed by Adam Smith as the advantages of the division of labo r?A. The workers qualities were improved.B. The output per worker was increased.C. The number of people employed in factories was increased.D. The quality of pins produced was improved.3. Why did Adam Smith mention the number 4800?A. To show the advantages of the division of labor.B. To show the advantages of the old craft system.C. To emphasize how powerful the individual worker was.D. To emphasize the importance of increased production.4.According to the writer, Adam Smith’s mistake was in believing that division of labor ______.A. was an efficient way of organizing workB. was an important development in methods of productionC. inevitable led to economic developmentD. increased the production of existing goods5.Line 4, Para4, the phrase “took…for granted” could best be replaced by ______.A. took…into accountB. consider…seriouslyC. regard…as trueD. accepted…as interesting(C)One phase of business cycle is the expansion phase. This phase is a two-fold one, including recovery and prosperity. During the recovery period there is ever-growing expansion of existing facilities, and new facilities for production are created. More businesses are created and older ones expanded. Improvements of various kinds are made. There is an ever increasing optimism about the future of economic growth. Much capital is invested in machinery or “heavy” industry. More labor is employed. More raw materials are required. As one part of the economy grows, other parts are affected. For example, a great expansion in automobiles results in an expansion of the steel, glass, and rubber industries. Roads are requires, thus the cement and machinery industries are stimulated. Demand for labor and materials result in greater prosperity for workers and suppliers of raw materials, including farmers. This increases purchasing power and the volume of goods bought and sold. Thus prosperity is diffused among the various segments of the population. This prosperity period may continue to rise without an apparent end. However, a time comes when this phase reaches a peak and stops spiraling upwards. This is the end of the expansion phase.1.We may assume that in the next paragraph the writer will discuss______.A. cyclical industriesB. the status of the farmerC. the higher cost of livingD. the recession period2.The title below that best expresses the ideas of this passage is ______.A. the business cycleB. the phase of recessionC. an expanding societyD. the phase of expansion3.Prosperity in one industry______.A.will influence many other industriesB.will spiral upwardsC.will affect the steel industryD.will help all segments of society except the farmers4.Which of the following industries will probably be a good indicator of a period of expansion?A.
