Hw went to a bar and had several drinks. When he was done, he stood up and walked toward the door. The barman shouted after him, “Hey mister, are you going to pay for those drinks?”Tom turned around an d replied, “I have already paid you,” and then walked out of the bar. Almost immediately he saw one of his friends Richard and told him about the barman, “Just go in there and drink all you want, then get up and leave. When the barman asks you to pay the bill, just tell him you have already paid.”This sounded easy enough, so Richard went in and has several drinks. The barman went to him and said, “Before you came in, another man was here. When I asked him to pay his bill, he told me he’d paid, but I don’t remember him paying me.”Richard said, “I would love to stay and hear your story, but I don’t have time. Can I havemy change please?”1. A2.B3.D4.C5.CTask 3: Why not just print money?What’s the solution to a recession, a time of little econom ic activity? Just print money! Sounds reasonable, doesn’t it? Let’s see if this will work by using an example.Let’s pretend that all the students in your class make up the ENTER population of the country, and the teacher represents the government. Let’s a lso pretend each student has exactly $1.00.Since we are in a recession, let’s have the teacher, who represents the government, print money. He prints $1.00 more for everyone. Now everyone has $1.00 more to spend. More money to spend sounds like a great way to get us out of recession, since more money to spend means demand for goods and services.Then if that works, why don’t we give MORE money away? How about $100? Now we have lots of money to spend. So no more recession, right?Not really, because we have only looked at one side of the problem. As more and more people receive more and more money, what’ll happen?Since everyone has more money, the students all go shopping to spend that extra money. This causes the demand for goods and services to rise, and people who sell goods and services raise price. For example, if you could buy a new music CD at $10 in the past, now the price could be $1,000! This is called inflation.So, the original reason for printing all this money was to help get us of recession, but we have only replaced one problem with another.1.T2.T3.F4.F5.FIV. Speaking OutModel 1 I want to blow it all.John: Hey, Se-Jin, do you want to come shopping with me? My dad just gave me my monthly allowance and I want to blow it all.Se-Jin: That sounds just like you, John! What do you want to buy?John: I don’t know…Some music CDs, maybe.Se-Jin: If you spend all that money on things you don’t even know if you want, you won’t have any money left when you need it.John: But if I just save my money, that doesn’t s sound like much fun either. Besides, I need some new CDs.Se-Jin: You also need a financial advisor!Now Your TurnA: Hey, do you want to come shopping with me? I just got some money from my part-time job, and I want to get rid of it right away.B: That’s your style. What do you want to buy?A: I don’t know…some fashionable clothes, maybe.B: If you waste all your money on things you don’t even know if you want, you’ll be out of money completely when you need it.A: But if I ju st hold on to my money…that doesn’t make much sense either. I really need some new clothes. What’s the point of saving lots of money without fun?B: As I see it, you need a person to look after your money.Model 2 Can money buy everything?Peter: I’m try ing to think of ways to become rich. If I could get my hands on a lot of money, I’ll be really happy.Jane: Do you really think so? I’m not so sure.Peter: Of course, why wouldn’t I? I’d be able to have anything I want.Jane: Well, there are plenty of peop le who have a lot of money but aren’t happy. What do you say to that?Peter: But if I became a millionaire, I’d buy whatever I wanted.Jane: Can you buy true love? Can you buy the moon?Peter: Maybe not, but I can buy a house with a lot of modern conveniences. Jane: So many people think like you do, buy look at all the divorces, suicides and murders among wealthy people. How do you explain that?Peter: Maybe there’s something in what you said.Now Your TurnA: I really hope I can make a fortune. If I had a lot of money, I’d be as happy as a king.B: Do you really believe so? I have my doubts about it.A: Of course, why wouldn’t I? If I were a millionaire, there’s nothing I couldn’tbuy.B: Well, can you but health? Can you but true friendship?B: Maybe not. But I can but a big house and car, and make my life more comfortable.A: Maybe you have a point there. Money can bring material comforts. But don’t forget, there are also divorces and suicides among wealthy people.B: Well, there is some truth in what you said. Money cannot but real happiness. Model 3 I wonder if you could give me a loan.John: Hey, Se-Jin, I was just on my way to find you.Se-Jin: What’s up, John?John: Se-Jin, I’m kind of broke, and you usually have a bundle tucked away. I wonder if you could give me a loan.Se-Jin: Dream on! I’m hard up myself.John: You see, I want to buy some new stereo equipment, and I’m just about a hundred short.Se-Jin: Why not save up for it?John: The stores have all stuff on a huge sales promotion right now. I could save at least 30 percent!S-Jin: John, I’d lend you money if you were in a jam. But a new stereo isn’t an emergency.John: Then I’m afraid I have to find someone who is more easy-going.Now Your TurnA: Hi, I was trying to catch up with you.B: What happened?A: Money had burned a hole in my pocket. You usually have some savings. I wonder if you can lend me some money?B: You’re daydreaming. I’m short of money myself.A: Look, I want to buy a digital camera, and I’m only short of 150 bucks.B: Why not save towards it?A: The camera is on sale right now. This can save me almost 25 percent.B: Well, I’d lend you the money if you were in real redouble. But a new camera isn’t urgent.A: Then I’m afraid I’ll have to try someone who’s more generous.V. L et’s TalkStory of a MiserThere was a miser who loved money more than anything else. Just before he died, he said to his wife, “Now, listen. When I die, I want you to take all my money and put it in the casket with me. I want to take my money to the afterlife with me.”He made her promise with all her heart that when he dies, she would pit all the money in the casket with him. Then he died. He was laid in the casket, his wife was sitting there wearing black, and her friend was sitting next to her.When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got already to close the casket, the wife said, “Wait a minute!” She had a box with her. She came over with the box and put it in the casket.Then the undertakers locked the casket down, and they rolled it away. He friend said, “Girl, I know you weren’t fool enough to put all that money in there with your husband!”She said, “Listen, I’m a Christian. I can’t go back on my word. I promise him that I would put all the money in the casket with him.”“You mean you really put that money in the casket with him!?”“I surely did,” said the wife. “I wrote him a check.”more thanmoney casketpromisein the casketsitting blacknext to/besideclosea boxaway/offfoolish all that money/the moneya Christian on her wordput the moneya checkVI.

At noon, when the lunch bell rings, two thousand men and women immediately stop working and leave the building.“Your workers, they’re escaping!” cries the visitor. “You’ve got to stop them.”“Don’t worry, they’ll be back,” says the American. And indeed, an exactly one 0’clock the bell rings again, and all the workers return from their break.When the tour is over, the manufacturer t urn s to his guest and says, “Well, now, which of these machines would you like to order?”“Forget the machines,” says the visitor. “How much do you want for that bell?”1.T2.F3.F4.T5.TTask 3: An Introduction to Credit CardsCredit cards are plastic cards issued by a bank or other financial institutions allowing the holder to buy goods and service without using cash. Many American don’t like to carry much ca sh. For them the cards are convenient and safe to use. Credit cards are gaining popularity, even for buying small items. They are accepted almost everywhere, though not at fast food restaurants.Credit cards allow you to purchase things that you may not currently have the money to buy. When you use a credit card, the credit card company that issued the credit card pays the store. Later, a bill will be mailed to you by your credit card company for the amount you purchased. At that time, you can either pay the bill in full, or only pay a minimum amount, and wait till later to finish paying. If you wait till later, you will owe the credit card company interest on the amount that you do not pay.1.D2.C3.B4.C5.ASpeakingCan you change a twenty-dollar bill?Cashier: How can I help you, Miss?Jill: Could you change a 20 for me?Cashier: Sure.

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.

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 intofollowing, not leading. Yet the future depends on creativity and imagination.The world needs creators, makers and shakers of the new centuries, not thefollowers of the past centuries. As the numbers increase at college anduniversity level, more students from the lower ends are likely to be thrown intoa process designed to choose only learners that have proved excellent inlistening to teachers.There are three ways to learn: looking, listening and doing.Students and teachers today are a product of learning by listening. Thecomputer 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 thestudents. With computer learning you learn by looking, listening and doing;you use three methods of learning, not just one. Therefore, you can learnfaster.The changing speed of information is frightening. What we learn now will beout of date in the near future. So what students are learning now at schoolmay be replaced by the time they finish university. We have to learn by choicewhat to forget. Rote-learning for exams is one thing, but wouldn't it be betterto learn how to learn? The students at university today could possibly bedoing 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.

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。

Are you aware that the time spent on today's reading prevents you from reading something else? Life is one of choices?make sure your choices take you in the direction you wish to go.My biggest recommendation (建议) to increase your reading rate is to attend a rapid reading course (sometimes called speed reading), but the single most important element is the on-going practice.If you want to try a few techniques on your own, here are a few key pointers, but you really need to attend a course to bepushed to significantly higher levels of competency, because only an external person can push you past the comfort zone of your eyes, your brain, and your current beliefs about your abilities.Some Rapid-reading Keys:Read with purpose. Don't read things you won't remember, and don't waste time reading things that won't further you in any way. However, many people read mindlessly, just because it's there! You should start with the end in mind.Have an expectation of success. See yourself reading at great speed.Fill your mind with a positive expectation of great deeds. Feel and imagine the power of the rapid flow of information into your mind. And hear the rapid flow of words just pouring into your brain.Preview and review the book. You can do it by scanning contents andother information at the front, as well as the back. Sit upright andhold the book at a comfortable position. Have good overhead light, fresh air, plenty of water, and a comfortable temperature.Use a visual guide. You may usually use your finger, or sometimes two fingers, which depends on the size of the print. This is where the training by an instructor is really useful (they won't let you get away with bad habits, and they push you beyond your comfort level). One ofthe key elements of rapid reading is to use our finger at a very fast rate, running it down the page. We don't need to read every word inorder to comprehend (理解) and keep the information. All weneed is a large amount of text, and the sense is gathered at lightening speed.Speed training. Go as fast as your hand can turn the pages, and don't worry that there seems to be practically no comprehension at this stage. The key is to extend the eye's capacity to absorb, and to strengthenyour mind's belief that it can be done. Two hands are needed. With one hand run a finger down the page as fast as you can. At first you'll notice an occasional word or phrase will jump out at you, but not much else. That's fine—comprehension is not the goal at this stage. With the other hand, turn the pages as fast as you can go.Set a daily target for yourself—it might be to race through a thick book that you're interested to read. It might be to practice for a specified amount of time.Practice, practice, and practice. Magazines and newspapers are great to practice on. The columns (栏目) are thin, which helps you go even faster.Comprehension. You may think you're not absorbing much, but try this test. Choose a book you want to read. Each time you pick it up to readin your old style, first do the rapid run described above. You'll notice when you come to read in your slow way that in fact you already know,and can remember having seen, most of the key concepts. We call this a conscious convincer. Your subconscious needs reassurance (安心) that nothing is being lost, and that you have absorbed the information you need. Coupled with the rapid "preview", if you do wish to read slower,do it with a highlighter in your hand. Your ability to keep thematerial will be greatly enhanced, for you will have visited the information several times.You may still wish to read at a slower speed for enjoyment, or because you need to really absorb every word of an author for study purposes,but if every day you practice this technique, suddenly you'll find you really are reading and absorbing at a much faster rate.1. What can we know about life? ___B_____________A. Life is about reading.B. Life is about choices.C. Life is about wishes.D. Life is about directions.2. What is the most important element in speed reading? ____C___________A. Your comfort zone.B. A level of competency.C. Practice that doesn't stop.D. One's reading rate.3. From the fourth paragraph we know when we read, __________A______.A. we should start reading with a purpose in mindB. we should take time reading something which you won't rememberC. we should read something near at hand because it is convenientD. we should start at the end of the book to know the purpose4. How can we preview and review the book? ___________D_____A. Sit upright and hold the book at a comfortable position.B. Have good overhead light and fresh air.C. Have plenty of water, and a comfortable temperature.D. Glance at contents and other information at the front and the back.5. When we use our finger as a visual guide in rapid reading, it's very crucial that ____B___________.A. we take our time and have a full comprehensionB. we run our finger down the page very fastC. we read every word on the page to keep the informationD. we gather the sense of the passage light-heartedly6. In speed reading, the finger of one hand runs down the page, and the other hand ____A____________.A. turns the pages quicklyB. guides the eyes to absorbC. runs down the page tooD. marks the occasional word or phrase7. We should ___C_____________.A. read newspapers and magazines every dayB. finish reading a thick book every dayC. plan a daily objective of reading for ourselvesD. read newspaper columns daily8. Reading a book quickly and then checking your comprehension by reading slowly is called .a conscious convincer9. We will greatly strengthen our ability to keep the information, as we will have visited the information several times.10. You might want to read slowly for study purposes or for enjoyment.Part 5 Reading Comprehension (Banked Cloze)(每小题：1.5 分)Directions: Fill in the blanks in the following passage(s) byselecting suitable words from the Word Bank.

The arrival of digital (数字的) time has been changing the way we act and think. I believe that it has put us to a higher level of anxiety, with greater expectations of efficiency.The old, round, hand-moved time still kept a certain connection to the natural flow of things, to the roundness of the earth, and to the changes of light and seasons. Old, round time was outside ourselves, far enough removed from us so we could ignore it if we so chose.It is not so with digital time, which is a beat. It beats instead of turning. It makes a sound like the sound of the heart and thus places itself smoothly into the body. More and more, we mistake its regular beat for our own, thus mistaking the demands of the world for our wishes.Before wrist watches, time used to live in towers in the centers of towns. At that distance, it could be seen by everybody, but only if they so wished. It took an effort, an actual visit to "time". But then something happened. Time began to live with us, and now it is beginning to live in us.I remember what it was like to be a child, absorbed in the endlessly changeable thing of time. For me there was only child time, divided meaninglessly and quite painfully by the orders of the parents into Bedtime, Wakeup Time, and School Time. But within each of those divisions (分割), Eternity still ruled. Later, of course, they managed to infect me with the anxious demands of clock time. Very soon, all that remained was the anxiety of thatwhich was exact. The fast beats of the timepiece (时钟) cut Eternity to pieces.Occasionally, I stop long enough to recall the times of childhood, but not often enough. Like everybody else, I am helpless before the new technologies. Time is a virus, and it is growing stronger.76.Digital time has changed how we act and think by ____C________________.A. allowing us to work with more efficiencyB. giving us more time to do what we likeC. causing us to be more anxiousD. having us expect more of others77.The author thinks that the old clocks _________A___________.A. are somehow linked with the seasonal changesB. stay closer to people than a digital watchC. are connected with human's handsD. work better than a wrist watch78.Before watches, clocks were located _________D_________.A. everywhere for everyone to seeB. wherever a person wishedC. on the wristD. in the center of town79.In the author's early childhood memory, ____B_____________.A. time was a concrete thingB. time seemed to have no endC. he fought against his parents' idea of timeD. he enjoyed the anxiety of precision (精确)80.The author's attitude towards time in the modern world is _____C_______.A. positiveB. unclearC. negativeD. in the middleQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.The University of London is one of Britain's largest centers for higher education, with a name for international education. Located in one of the world's most dynamic(有活力有生气的) cities, we can offer international students a wide and exciting cultural life, as well as the very best course choice and teaching. We offer our international students the ability to study and improve their command of English, to ensure they get the best from the course of their choice.International students are assured of a successful and happy time while studying at the University of London. We have a Student Service office to help you at all times, and first year students are ensured a place in halls of residence if desired. Your teacher will give you personal instruction if required. Students can enjoy themselves in the free health center at any time.As a final point, we offer religious service rooms for those of all faiths and as London is an international city, we can put students in touch with many religious groups in this area. Finally, with excellent air, rail, and road links to the rest of Britain, Europe, and the world, getting here is easy.81.The University of London is located in a city _____B_____________.A. well known for producing excellent professorsB. full of activity and energyC. where you can enjoy everything free of chargeD. that is quiet and peaceful all the time82.The University of London is famous for _________D_________.A. the largest number of studentsB. being located on the ThamesC. excellent transportationD. international education83.Whenever international students have any difficulty in life, they can go to_____C__________ for help.A. the health centerB. the hall of residenceC. the Student Service officeD. their teacher84.The university assures the first year students that ________A_________.A. they can have a place in halls of residence if they wish toB. they don't have to pay for their first-year educationC. they will all be put into some religious groupsD. they can get houses at Newcastle for a very low price85.The main purpose of this passage is to ___________C_______.A. attract more travelers to LondonB. show that the University offers religious serviceC. draw more international studentsD. show how students enjoy their studyQuestions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.Stare at the clock.Make silly drawings.Stare at the clock again.Complain about the weather.The clock? It's still there, ticking even more slowly.No, none of this was planned for the meeting.You'd love to get your work done, but instead you spend half your day in a meeting room.Office workers spend an average of 23 hours a week in meetings, according to the Wharton Center for Applied Research in the US. And, these workers consider only 58 percent of that time useful.It doesn't have to be this way. Here are a few guidelines for you to use meetings effectively, not eat up your productivity.1) Know what you want. "Know precisely why the meeting is being held and decide realistically what you intend to accomplish," says Gayle Brickman, a US communication instructor. "If you cannot write these two things down, the meeting should not take place."2) Figure out whether a face-to-face meeting is necessary. Would a group email be enough?A couple of phone calls? These ways would probably be more efficient with fellow workers you know well.3) Pick the right times. If possible, avoid planning meetings during your most productive hours. If everyone runs to the break room for coffee at 10:30 am, that would be an excellent time to have informal staff meetings.4) Be prepared. Read the plan for what needs to be done. Study the numbers on the project you're putting forward. If there are papers to be discussed, hand them out the day before to those who will attend the meeting.5) Keep track of the time for them. Set apart a certain amount of time each week for the meetings, and keep to it.If you still find yourself caught in meeting after meeting, don't feel bad. At least your organization obviously thinks your physical presence is valuable.86. A worker who is in a meeting that he doesn't want to take part in is likely to______A_____.A. draw funny picturesB. change the clockC. check the weatherD. plan another meeting87.Office workers think that ____C_____ the time used in meetings is wasted.A. more than half ofB. almost all ofC. less than half ofD. none of88.In this passage, we are advised to follow some principles in order to _____C_____.A. learn guidelinesB. eat up productivityC. make the most of meetingsD. increase production89.To decide whether a meeting is necessary, we may ask the following questions except"_____B______".A. Can I solve the problem by email or phone call?B. Will my fellow workers like to have this meeting?C. What is the purpose of this meeting?D. What do I intend to get from the meeting?90.It is a good time to have informal staff meetings ____B_______.A. when you and your coworkers are most productiveB. when all the staff are having a coffee breakC. before you hand out the information to be discussedD. when you can keep track of the time。

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。

Many people like to stereotype (模式化) these schools which, while these general statements may be true in some cases, tend to be worse most of the time. People think that the students of these schools receive inferior educations. My school, an inner-city school named St. Ignatius, is regarded as one of the best in the state. People also believe that violence occurs on a daily basis, both in the school itself and in the nearby city.I cannot even remember a serious fight at St. Ignatius. People who think that the teachers at inner-city schools lack love for their job worsen this typical stereotype even further. My teachers not only had a love for teaching, but they were also able to cultivate a love for learning in their students.Take Mrs. Borroni, my Spanish teacher, for example. She would often take time out of her class to tell her students about the numerous activities after class with which we should get involved. She loved her job so much that she stayed after school every day to moderate activities such as "Amnesty International" (an international organization that protects human rights) and the Spanish Club. Her students, including me, joined all of the clubs which she moderated just because she made them so interesting.After reading all of this, most people would argue that St. Ignatius should not be considered a true "inner-city school". While this may hold some truth, I am arguing that my life was greatly enriched simply because of the school's location in the middle of Cleveland, as opposed to a poor suburban area.91.What do people often think negatively about?A. Inner-city schools.B. Stereotypes.C. St. Ignatius.D. Violence.92.What can the author never remember seeing at St. Ignatius?A. Amnesty International.B. A serious fight.C. A Spanish club.D. Inferior students.93.What would Mrs. Borroni do after school?A. Give Spanish classes.B. Tell students about activities.C. Guide students in special groups.D. Help students love learning.94.Why might a reader of this article not view St. Ignatius as a realinner-city school?A. It is not in the middle of the city.B. It is in a poor suburban area.C. It enriched the author's life.D. It might be better than others.95.How does the author feel about inner-city schools?A. The stereotypes about them are not at all true.B. They are not necessarily all bad, as they can be good.C. They are much poorer than those in the suburbs.D. The students there are more enlightened.Questions 96 to 100 are based on the same passage or dialog.In 1913, the United States government introduced a bold, new nickel. James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin that would be "truly American." In his search for symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect unity of theme."Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913.A single coining press at the Philadelphia Mint (造币厂) started turning out the nickels at the rate of 120 a minute. But after the first examples were introduced,The New York Times said they were "bad."Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters (造假币的人). But the most serious complaint about the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would remove the date and the words Five Cents "beyond understanding."In 1938, the Government staged a competition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson. According to a news item of the day, the Department of Indian Affairs didn't receive a single complaint from Native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem to mind either.96.In the eyes of Fraser, a __________ is the most distinctive.A. nickelB. buffaloC. Native AmericanD. unity of theme97.In the second sentence, Paragraph 2, the word "press" means ________.A. publicationB. newspaperC. machineD. the act of pushing down98.The design of a buffalo was modified ________.A. because it was not able to stand heavy useB. because the words Five Cents were "beyond understanding"C. because the coin couldn't be pressed by the Philadelphia MintD. because the words were too high on the coin99.According to one collectors' magazine using a Native American anda buffalo was ________.A. a good ideaB. a bad ideaC. a perfect ideaD. a forced idea100.It seemed that the new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson ________.A. won much praise from collectorsB. caused strong protests from American IndiansC. was OK both to the collectors and American IndiansD. was praised both by the collectors and American Indians Questions 101 to 105 are based on the same passage or dialog.In the early days of sea travel, seamen on long voyages lived exclusively on salted meat and biscuits. Many of them died of scurvy (坏血病), a blood disease which causes swollen gums, livid (铅色的) white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion. On one occasion, in 1535, an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew seriously ill. The men's lives were saved by Iroquois Indians (易洛魁印第安人) who gave them vegetable leaves to eat. Gradually it came to be realized that scurvy was caused by something lacking in the sailors' diet. Captain Cook, on his long voyages of discovery to Australia and New Zealand, established the fact that scurvy could be warded off by the giving fresh fruit to the sailors.Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious diseases if certain important elements are missing. These elements are called "vitamins". Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them, A, B, C, D, and so on. Different diseases are associated with a lack of particular vitamins. Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increase our chances of catching colds.The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruit and green vegetables. It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say, during the extended periods of religious fasting (斋戒), or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to supply the missing vitamins.101.Which of the following happens because of scurvy?A. People become hungry.B. People lose blood.C. People become livid.D. People feel pain in their gums.102.How would the sailors ward off scurvy on long trips?A. They took fresh fruit with them.B. They stopped in places to relax.C. They often found Indians to help.D. They ate vegetable leaves regularly.103. Which vitamin helps protect us against colds?A. Vitamin A.B. Vitamin B.C. Vitamin C.D. Vitamin D.104.What supplies all the vitamins we need to be healthy?A. Any one of the different sorts of green vegetables.B. Diets like those taken by religious people.C. Certain important elements known by letters.D. Mixed diets with different fruits and vegetables.105. When should people take vitamins?A. When wanting to be healthy.B. When joining a religion.C. When dieting to lose weight.D. When protecting against sickness.（注：可编辑下载，若有不当之处，请指正，谢谢!）。

It isalways much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, ifa parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the timeand the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, somuch the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child byfrightening him or arousing his sadistic (施虐狂的) impulses. Toprove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experimentthat children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty ofcruelty than those who had not. As to fear, I think, we also needwell-documented cases of children being dangerously terrified (恐惧) by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the childhaving heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetitionturns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced andmastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the groundsthat they are not objectively true, that giants, witches (女巫),two-headed dragons, magic carpets (魔毯), etc., do not exist; andthat, instead of indulging (沉溺) his fantasies in fairy tales, the childshould 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 do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick (女巫乘骑的扫帚柄) or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted (中魔法的) girl-friend.No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane (精神健全的) child has ever believed that it was.1.The author considers that a fairy story is more effective whenit is ___c____.A. repeated without variationB. treated with respectC. adapted by the parentD. set in the present2.Some people dislike fairy stories because they feel that they_____d___.A. tempt people to be cruel to childrenB. show the primitive cruelty in childrenC. lend themselves to undesirable experiments with childrenD. increase a tendency to have sadistic impulses in children3.According to the passage great fear can be stimulated in achild when the story is __b______.A. set in realityB. heard for the first timeC. repeated too oftenD. dramatically told4.The author's mention of broomsticks and telephones is meantto suggest that __b_____.A. fairy stories are still being made upB. there is confusion about different kinds of truthC. people try to modernize old fairy storiesD. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays5.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to thepassage? cA. Fairy stories are anything but beneficial to the growth ofchildren.B. Fairy stories teach children the way to adapt to the society.C. No fairy story should be taken as the true description of thereality.D. No fairy story should be told to the children withoutmodification.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.In the primary school, a child is in a comparatively simple setting and most of the time forms a relationship with one familiar teacher. On entering secondary school, a new world opens up and frequently it is a much more difficult world. The pupil soon learns to be less free in the way he speaks to teachers and even to his fellow pupils. He begins to lose gradually the free and easy ways of the primary school, for he senses the need for a more cautious approach in the secondary school where there are older pupils. Secondary staff and pupils suffer from the pressures of academic work and seem to have less time to stop and talk. Teachers with specialist roles may see hundreds of children in a week, and a pupil may be able to form relationships with very few of the staff. He has to decide which adults are approachable; good schools will make clear to every young person from the first year what guidance and personal help is available—but whether the reality of life in the institution actually encourages requests for help is another matter.Adults often forget what a confusing picture school can offer to a child. He sees a great deal of movement, a great number of people—often rather frightening-looking people—and realizes that an increasing number of choices and decisions have to be made. As he progresses through the school the confusion may become less but the choices and decisions required will increase. The school will rightly expect the pupil to take the first steps to obtain the help he needs, for this is the pattern of adult life for which he has to be prepared, but all the time the opportunities for personal and group advice must be presented in a way which makes them easy to understand and within easy reach of pupils.6.According to the passage one of the problems for pupilsentering secondary schools is that ____a____.A. they are taught by many different teachersB. they do not attend lessons in every subjectC. the teachers are not so friendly and helpfulD. the teachers give most attention to a few pupils7.In secondary schools every pupil having problems should____a____.A. know how to ask for helpB. go to ask any teacher he can findC. discuss his problem in classD. turn to his parents for help8.It can be inferred from the passage that the author is mainlyconcerned about ____d____.A. academic standardsB. the role of specialist teachersC. the training of the individual teachersD. the personal development of pupils9.Which of the following statements is TRUE? bA. All the secondary schools know the way to encouragestudents' requests for help.B. The secondary schools are responsible for offering personaland group advice to new pupils.C. Secondary school pupils enjoy greater freedom incommunicating with teachers and fellow pupils.D. Secondary school pupils can easily get the help they need.10.The most appropriate title for the passage is ____c____.A. Primary School and Secondary SchoolB. Problems for New Secondary School TeachersC. Problems for New Secondary School PupilsD. Academic Work and Personal RelationshipQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage. The US military has blocked public access to nearly all its web sites after its servers were attacked by a new computer virus.Late last week, the US Space Command, which provides security for military computers, instructed all military organizations to block public access after a number of sites had contracted the virus, called the "Code Red" bug, according to an official.The virus is known as a "denial of service" bug, because it replicates (自我复制) itself by reading the data files on a network server and sending copies to other servers—thereby multiplying and sometimes crashing a system—and denying access to legitimate (合法的) users of the site."The Code Red worm did in fact show up in some DoD (Department of Defense) web sites and we're working to contain that," CommandSpokesman Army Maj. Barry Venable said. "Ways we're going about that include blocking public access to the Web sites, because that's the way this worm works, to prevent it from using our networks to propagate (繁殖) itself."The virus exploits a security flaw (缺陷) in certain Microsoft network servers. The flaw was announced last month when a patch was released to fix it."To protect our DoD web sites from being compromised, DoD organizations have been told to review the status of the Internet information servers... to make sure that all the patches that were previously installed had been installed," says Venable.Only a handful of the major Defense Department sites, with the suffix ".mil," appear currently accessible to the public, including the central public affairs site DefenseLink and the military services' main homepages. Public access is blocked to information connected to those sites, and others such as the National Missile Defense site and the US Air Force's European site. Registered Department of Defense personnel continue to have access to the sites, Venable said.11.Which of the following is the best title for this passage? dA. The Code Red Worm.B. DoD Blocks Public Web Site Access.C. DoD Was Attacked.D. Protect DoD Web Sites Against Viruses.12.The word "contracted" (Para.2) most probably means____b____.A. make less or smallerB. get an illnessC. make a legal agreementD. formally agree to marry somebody13.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the CodeRed worm? cA. It can multiply in large numbers.B. It may make a computer system stop working.C. It's included in a patch released by Microsoft.D. It may destroy the connection between legitimate users andthe sites.14.Public access is blocked to most DoD web sites so that____a____.A. the Code Red worm can't use the web site to replicates itselfand send copiesB. DoD organizations can have necessary patches installed toprotect their sitesC. the defense secrets can be prevented from being revealedD. the mistake in certain Microsoft network servers can becorrected15.Which of the following is NOT a measure taken by DoD to fightagainst the Code Red worm? bA. Blocking public access.B. Shutting down e-mail.C. Reviewing the status of the Internet information servers.D. Having necessary patches installed.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage. The decline in moral standards—which has long concerned social analysts—has at last captured the attention of average Americans. And Jean Bethke Elshtain, for one, is glad.The fact that ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about the nation's moral climate, says this ethics (伦理学) professorat the University of Chicago, is reason to hope that new ideas will come forward to improve it.But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and individualism in American society are the biggest obstacles. "The thought that 'I'm in it for me' has become deeply rooted in the national consciousness," Ms. Elshtain says.Some of this can be attributed to the decay of traditional communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With today's greater mobility and with so many couples working, those bonds have been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the biggest problems facing the US. And Elshtain says the public is correct to sense that: Data show that Americans are struggling with problems unheard of in the 1950s, such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to unmarried mothers.The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament (挽歌) for some nonexistent "golden age," Elshtain says, nor is it a wishful (一厢情愿的) longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most people, in fact, favor a decrease in prejudice.Moral decline will not be reversed until people find ways to counter the materialism in society, she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things that matter are those that can't be bought."16.Professor Elshtain is pleased to see that Americans___d_____.A. have adapted to a new set of moral standardsB. are longing for the return of the good old daysC. have realized the importance of material thingsD. are awakening to the lowering of their moral standards17.The moral decline of American society is caused mainly by_____b___.A. its growing wealthB. the self-centeredness of individualsC. underestimating the impact of social changesD. the prejudice against women and minorities18.Which of the following characterizes the traditionalcommunities? cA. Great mobility.B. Emphasis on individual effort.C. Concern for one's neighbors.D. Ever-weakening social bonds.19.In the 1950s, classroom violence _____a___.A. was something unheard ofB. attracted a lot of public attentionC. was by no means a rare occurrenceD. began to appear in analysts' data20.According to Elshtain, the current moral decline may bereversed ____d____.A. if people can return to the "golden age"B. when women and men enjoy equal rightsC. when people rid themselves of prejudiceD. if less emphasis is laid on material thingsPart 2 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题: 1 分; 满分：20 分)小题得分对错我的答案客观1. 1 C C2. 1 D D3. 1 B B4. 1 B B5. 1 C C6. 1 A A7. 1 A A8. 1 D D9. 0 C B10. 1 C C11. 1 D D12. 1 B B13. 1 C C14. 1 A A15. 1 B B16. 1 D D17. 1 B B18. 0 B C19. 1 A A20. 1 D DSubtotal: 18 老师评语：。

During the long vacation I was accepted as a trainee bus conductor. I found the job fiercely demanding even on a short route with a total of about two dozen passengers. I pulled the wrong tickets, forgot the change and wrote up my log (行程记录) at the end of each trip in a way that drew hollow laughter from the inspectors. The inspectors were likely to check at any time. A conductor with twenty years' service could be dismissed if an inspector caught him accepting money without pulling a ticket.It was hot that summer: 100° Fahrenheit (华氏) every day. Inside the bus it was 30° hotter still. It was so jammed inside that my feet weren't touching the floor. I couldn't blink (眨眼睛) the sweat out of my eyes. There was no hope of collecting any fares.In these circumstances I was scarcely to blame. I didn't even know where we were, but I guessed we were at the top just before Market Street. I pressed the bell, the doors closed, and the bus surged forward. There were shouts and yells from down the back, but I thought they were the angry cries of passengers who had not got on. Too late I realized that they were coming from within the bus. The automatic doors at the back of the bus had closed around an old lady's neck as she was getting on. Her head was inside the bus. The rest of her, carrying a shopping bag was outside. I knew none of this at the time.When I at last signaled the driver to stop, he crashed to a halt and opened the automatic doors. The woman dropped to the road. Unfortunately, the car behind turned out to be full of inspectors. Since it would have made headlines if a university student had almost half-killed a woman of an advanced age, I was given the opportunity to leave quietly.1.What do we learn about the inspectors in the first paragraph?A. They found the writer amusing.B. They never wore uniforms.C. They were feared by employees.D. They distrusted older employees.2.Why was the writer unable to do his job properly?A. He wasn't tall enough.B. The buses were too fast.C. People avoided paying.D. He couldn't move.3.The old lady in the incident described ________.A. was injuredB. faintedC. was draggedD. hit her head4.When the incident with old lady happened, ________.A. the writer had already decided to give up the jobB. the writer's employers wanted to avoid publicityC. the writer was offered the chance to continueD. the consequences were as the writer expected5.What is the writer's attitude now to the job?A. He feels responsible for the incident that ended it.B. He thinks that he was unfairly treated by the inspectors.C. He is ashamed that he was incapable of doing it properly.D. He believes that it was an impossible job to do well.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog. Urban (城市的) life has always involved a balancing of opportunities and rewards against dangers and stress; its moving force is, in thebroadest sense, money. Opportunities to make money make competition stressful; it is often at its most intense in the largest cities, where opportunities are greatest. Crime has always flourished in the relative anonymity (人所不知) of urban life, but today's ease of movement makes its control more difficult than ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of communities. City dwellers (居民) may become trapped in their homes by the fear of crime around them.As defense against these developments, city dwellers tend to use various strategies to try and reduce the pressures upon themselves: contacts with other people are generally made brief and impersonal; doors are kept locked; telephone numbers may be ex-directory (未列入电话号码簿的); journeys outside the home are usually hurried, rather than a source of pleasure.Inner areas of cities tend to be abandoned by the more successful and left to those who have done badly in the competitive struggle or who belong to minority groups; these people are then geographically trapped because so much economic activity has migrated to the suburbs and beyond.Present-day architecture and planning have enormously worsened the human problems of urban life. Old-established neighborhoods have been ruthlessly (无情地) swept away, by both public and private organizations, usually to be replaced by huge, ugly, impersonal structures. People have been forced to leave their familiar homes, usually to be re-housed in tower blocks which are inconvenient, and fail to provide any setting for human interaction or support. The destruction of established social structures is the worse possible approach to the difficulties of living in a town or city. Instead, every effort should be made to conserve (保护) the human scale of the environment, and to retain familiar landmarks.6.According to the author, living in a city causes stress becausethere are so many people who are ________.A. anxious to succeedB. in need of helpC. naturally aggressiveD. likely to commit crime7.The author thinks that crime is increasing in cities because________.A. people do not communicate with their neighborsB. criminals are difficult to trace in large populationsC. people feel anonymous thereD. the trappings of success are attractive to criminals8.The majority of people who live in inner cities tend to quit fromthe inner areas because they ________.A. dislike having to travel far to workB. have been forced by circumstances to do soC. don't like the idea of living in the suburbsD. have turned against society9.Architectural changes have affected city life by ________.A. scattering long-established communitiesB. giving the individual a say in planningC. forcing people to live on top of each otherD. making people move to the suburbs10.The author's general argument is that urban life would beimproved by ________.A. moving people out of tower blocksB. restoring old buildingsC. building community centersD. preserving existing social systemsQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.My love of nature goes right back to my childhood, to the times when I stayed on my grandparent's farm in Suffolk. I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more than anyone: she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to do Zoology at university.I didn't get my first camera until after I'd graduated, when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there. My father didn't know anything about photography, but he bought me an Exacta, which was really quite a good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first pictures of sea anemones (海葵) and starfish (海星). I became keen very quickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I've tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologically correct. There are people who will alter things deliberately: you don't pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of the shore without knowing you're doing it.There can be a lot of ignorance in people's behaviour towards wild animals and it's a problem that more and more people are going to wild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won't get used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheer pressure of people, coupled with the fact there are increasingly few places where no-one else has photographed, means that over the years, life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless (然而), wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving. Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime (消遣), as it is to many people, it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.11.The author decided to go to university and study Zoologybecause ________.A. she wanted to improve her life in the countrysideB. she was persuaded to do so by her grandmotherC. she was keen on the natural worldD. she wanted to stop moving around all the time12.How is the author different from some of the other wildlifephotographers she meets?A. She tries to make her photographs as attractive aspossible.B. She takes photographs which record accurate naturalconditions.C. She likes to photograph plants as well as wildlife.D. She knows the best places to find wildlife.13.The author now finds it more difficult to photograph wildanimals because ________.A. there are fewer of themB. they have become more nervous of peopleC. it is harder to find suitable placesD. they have become frightened of cars14.According to the author, wildlife photography is importantbecause it can make people realize that ________.A. photography is an enjoyable hobbyB. we learn little about wildlife at schoolC. it is worthwhile visiting the countrysideD. it is important to look after wild animals15.Which of the following describes the author?A. Proud.B. Sensitive.C. Aggressive.D. Disappointed.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog. Real policemen, both in Britain and the United States, hardly recognize any resemblance (相似) between their lives and what they see on TV-if they are even able to watch TV.The first difference is that in real life a policeman has been trained in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court.He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty-or not-of stupid, petty (不重要的) crimes.Most television crime drama is about finding the criminal: as soon as he's arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. Except in very serious cases like murders and terrorist attacks-where failure to produce results reflects on the standing of the police-little effort is spent on searching.A third big difference is between the drama detective and the real life ones. Detectives are subject to two opposing pressures: first, as members of a police force they always have to behave with absolute legality (合法); secondly, as expensive public servants they have to get results. They can hardly ever do both. Most of the time some of them have to break the rules in small ways.If the detective has to deceive the world, the world often deceives him. Hardly anyone he meets tells him the truth. And this separation the detective feels between himself and the rest of the world is deepened by the simplemindedness-as he sees it-of citizens, social workers, doctors, law-makers, and judges, who, instead of stamping out crime, punish the criminals less severely in the hope that this will make them reform. The result, detectives feel, is that nine-tenths of their time is spent re-catching people who should have stayed behind bars. This makes them rather cynical.16.It is essential for a policeman to be trained in criminal law________.A. so that he can catch criminals in the streetsB. because many of the criminals he has to catch aredangerousC. so that he can justify his arrests in courtD. because he has to know nearly as much about law as aprofessional lawyer17.The everyday life of a policeman or detective is ________.A. exciting and mysteriousB. full of dangerC. devoted mostly to routine mattersD. wasted on unimportant matters18.When murders and terrorist attacks occur the police________.A. prefer to wait for the criminal to give himself awayB. work hard to track down the criminalsC. try to make a quick arrest in order to keep up theirreputationD. usually fail to produce results19.The real detective lives in an unusual moral climate because________.A. he is an expensive public servantB. he must always behave with absolute legalityC. he is obliged to break the law in order to preserve itD. he feels himself to be cut off from the rest of the world20.Detectives are rather cynical because ________.A. nine-tenths of their work involves arresting peopleB. hardly anyone tells them the truthC. society does not punish criminals severely enoughD. D too many criminals escape from jail。

For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from thefour choices marked A, B, C and D. For questions 8-10,complete the sentences with the information given in thepassage.Questions 1 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.News and Entertainment MediaAmericans spend about five hours each day on leisure activities.Those who live in or near large cities spend some of this time attheaters, opera houses, night clubs, zoos, and museums.Americans who live in rural areas do not usually have such placesto visit, but like city residents, they can enjoy the most popularsources of information and entertainment as well: radio, television,movies, books, magazines, and newspapers.RadioAlmost every American family owns at least one radio, and many have three or four. Years ago, families gathered around one big living room radio. Today, people take small, lightweight radios with them into the bedroom (clock radios), on the street (transistor radios [半导体收音机], on the road (car radios), and into the fields (radios built into tractors). Radios have even been built into hair dryers and sunglasses.With the development of television, radio is no longer the major source of home entertainment; but Americans still turn to radio when they want the latest news quickly. Many stations broadcast up-to-the-minute news every half hour. Americans tend to listen to radios for short periods. In an effort to hold audiences, many radio stations appeal to special interests. Some offer only music or only news; others broadcast professional sports events. In large cities, some stations attract immigrants by presenting foreign-language programs. One New York City station broadcasts in thirteen languages!There are two types of radio broadcasting-AM and FM. FM can produce a wider range of sounds and can also broadcast in stereophonic (立体声的) sound. In recent years, FM has become increasingly popular. Many radios are equipped to receive both AM and FM.TelevisionTelevision was new in 1946, but by the 1950s it was a firmly established industry. Today, there are about 99 million TV sets in the United States; 99 percent of American households have at least one set, and 54 percent have two or more. Color TV is in 60 percent of American homes. The average American between his second and sixty-fifth birthday spends 3,000 entire days (almost nine years of his entire life) watching TV!In the United States, there is no government-owned television network. Commercial television attempts to please a vast audience of all age groups and educational levels by presenting entertainment that can be understood by all. Many adults are annoyed by the simplicity and dullness of most TV shows; they call the TV set the "idiot (傻瓜) box". A typical day's TV listing includescartoons and other children's shows, family situation comedies, news and weather, mysteries, interview shows, sports, movies, and musical reviews.Public" television stations offer a wide variety of high-quality entertainment and information without the annoying commercials. Funds to operate public TV come from money given by individuals and industries and, to a small degree, from the government. Public television has been highly praised for imaginative, appealing shows which help children learn basic reading concepts, valuable psychological insights, and languages like English and Spanish. Fine dramatic and musical presentations, award-winning movies, and intelligent discussions of national problems often take up the evening hours on public TV. For those who seek self-improvement with the help of TV, there are "how-to" shows (daytime and evening) which teach cooking, skiing, sewing, instrument-playing, and dozens of other skills. Also offered are college courses which give academic credit to enrolled listeners.MoviesMost American movies are produced in Hollywood, California. Hollywood, which is actually not a separate city but a part of Los Angeles, is an ideal spot for the movie industry. The sun shines most of the time, and the climate is mild. Almost every kind of natural scenery is within a few hour's drive.Hollywood becomes the center of national attention on one evening each year-Academy Award night. At the Academy Award presentations held each spring, awards called Oscars are given to film industry winners in dozens of categories, including best actor, best actress, and best picture. The winners are chosen by members of the industry before the ceremony, but their names are kept secret until the presentation night, when they are announced in a long program broadcast on television.Motion pictures were extremely popular in the United States until after World War II, when television captured much of the movie audience. Geared to the masses, Hollywood movies offered much the same type of entertainment as television does. With free entertainment in their homes, many Americans simply stopped going to movies. Between 1946 and 1956, movie attendance was cut in half. At the same time, production costs increased. The movie industry was in trouble.The industry adjusted itself in a number of ways. Movie companies rented sound stages to TV companies and sold old movies to TV. To cut costs, Hollywood produced fewer movies and filmed many of them overseas. To attract audiences, the industry started using wider screens. Studios also began producing kinds of entertainment that could not be offered by TV-films with controversial or shocking themes, films with huge casts and expensive settings. As a result of these changes, today the American motion picture industry is prosperous.Since industries prefer to advertise where they will reach the largest number of potential customers, the mass media do everything they can to hold the largest audience possible. On commercial TV, this goal leads to a great deal of sports and generally inadequate analyses of the national and international situations. It also means very little opera, classical music, or Shakespearean drama, and a great deal of unsophisticated comedy. Generally, the mass communications media try to please the public by reinforcing popular and traditional ideas rather than helping the public to understand (or at least, accept) new ideas.It would be foolish to think that news in the United States is always "the whole truth and nothing but the truth." However, the concerned citizen who exposes himself to a wide variety of publications and broadcasting stations can obtain a reasonably accurate picture of what's happening in the world. The United States government cannot control the news and entertainment media except to protect the public. It can prohibit misleading advertising and ban the sale of unhealthy materials, but it cannot examine and thus delete the news or ban its release. Public officials sometimes keep back information concerning governmental activities from the news media. Attempts to do this, however, are often exposed by persistent reporters.The guarantee of freedom of expression allows writers, news reporters, and public figures to state their opinions openly, without fear of governmental evaluation. No official power controls what is said to the public. No particular point of view is forced upon the news media. No American needs be ignorant about public affairs in this nation where freedom of speech makes a wide range of events and ideas available to the public.1.American Rural and city people are the same in that they can________________.A. go to theaters and opera housesB. visit zoos and museumsC. dance at clubsD. read books and magazines2.What do Americans do when they want the latest newsquickly? ________________A.
