Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
(每小题：分)
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.
I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes.
We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity.
1.Which people are having trouble with language?
A. Natives.
B. People of the 2nd generation.
C. People when born.
D. Immigrants.
2.Why are children ignoring their parents?
A. Children have lost their identity.
B. Parents cause children to suffer.
C. They speak different languages.
D. They have different job levels.
3.The author's aunt taught Korean ________.
A. so she could preserve her language
B. so she would have a job in America
C. to help children succeed in their new country
D. to help children keep their Korean identity
4.The author's cousins felt ________.
A. they were not similar to people in Korea
B. they could not get a job in America
C. it was all right to look and feel different
D. it was important to keep their identity
5. A proper title for this passage is ________.
A. The Identity of the Second Generation
B. Korean Problems in America
C. Learning a New Language in the US
D. Keeping Your Culture in a New Land
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage. Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival (节日).
Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.
Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.
The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—prove that people really can postpone their deaths.
6.When did Yilan die?
A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.
B. Before going to sleep.
C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.
D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.
7.The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that
_________.
A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderly
Chinese women
B. Chinese families get together to enjoy the Harvest
Moon Festival
C. families are often sad during the Harvest Moon
Festival
D. people may be able to put off death for an important
event
8.Where did the study take place?
A. China.
B. Yilan's home.
C. Festival grounds.
D. California.
9.What does the author describe as "not new"?
A. The work of sociologists.
B. Proof of postponing death.
C. The Harvest Moon Festival.
D. Stories of putting off death.
10.What provides us with proof?
A. The stories of family members.
B. The numbers showing death rates.
C. The important events.
D. The postponing of death.
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.
Today's trumpet (喇叭，小号) is one of the world's oldest instruments. It is the result of many centuries of development. Although it looks nothing like the ones of old days, there are many similarities. All trumpets are hollow tubes (管) They are all blown. And they all use the player's lips to produce their basic sound.
The trumpet developed as players and makers worked to improve its design, size, shape, material, and method of construction. They wanted to create an instrument that would produce a beautiful and attractive tone, enable the performer to play all the notes of the scale, extend the range higher and lower, make it possible to play more difficult music, and in general, be easier to play well. The remarkable way in which the modern trumpet achieves these goals is a measure of the success of all those who struggled to perfect this magnificent instrument.
The trumpet is actually the leading member of an entire family of related instruments. There are trumpets of several different sizes, and in several different keys. There are cornets (短号), bugles (军号), flugelhorns (粗管短号), and a number of others that are all similar to the trumpet in the way they are made and played.
The trumpet family is much more than a group of related instruments that can stir one with their sound, or narrow tubes of metal capable of producing a variety of musical sounds. It is a link to many different periods of history and to people of many cultures. From the use of trumpets in ancient religious
ceremonies to the part they play in modern rock bands, the trumpet family of instruments has much to tell about civilization and its development.
11.How do trumpets all resemble each other?
A. They require the same force when blowing them.
B. They make the same sound when playing them.
C. They use a player's lips to make a sound.
D. They have the same size of hollow tube.
12.Why did players and makers want to improve the
trumpet?
A. They wanted an instrument that'd be easy to play.
B. They wanted an instrument to play easy music.
C. They wanted an instrument of different sizes.
D. They wanted an instrument that looked attractive.
13.What is the trumpet the leading member of?
A. Trumpet family instruments.
B. Remarkable instruments.
C. Rock band instruments.
D. Religious instruments.
14.What is linked by the trumpet?
A. Different cultures.
B. Different bands.
C. Different tubes.
D. Different ceremonies.
15.What can trumpets tell us a lot about?
A. The sound of modern rock bands.
B. The development of civilization.
C. The different varieties of musical sound.
D. The links between different people.
