Pruning involves the cutting away ofovergrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged bythe thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size.The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or branches that are rubbing against each other and thus causing wounds. The health of a treemay be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air.One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easyentry for disease, but it is a wound that will heal. Often there is a race between the healing and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when thetree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far aspossible. It is essential to make the area, which has been pruned, smooth and clean, for healing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a fewhours and then paint it with one of the substances available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is usually done in winter, for then you can see the shapeof the tree clearly without interference from the leaves and it is, too, very unlikely that thecuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is, of course, impossible to paint them properly.1. Pruning may be done to ______.A. make the tree grow tallerB. improve the shape of the treeC. get rid of the small branchesD. make the small branches thicker2. Trees become unhealthy if a gardener _____.A. allows too many branches to grow in the middleB. does not protect them from the windC. forces them to grow too quicklyD. damages some of the small side branches3. A special substance is painted on the tree ______.A. to make a wound smoothB. to prevent disease entering a woundC. to cover a rough surfaceD. to help a wound to dry4. A good gardener prunes a tree ______.A. at intervals throughout the yearB. as quickly as possibleC. occasionally when necessaryD. regularly every winter5. What was the writer's purpose when writing this passage?A. To give practical instructions for pruning a tree.B. To give a general description of pruning.C. To explain how trees develop diseases.D. To discuss different methods of pruning.答案:BABCB(2)、In every society it is necessary to have a general system of laws to ensure ws are designed to make certain that people's rights are protected and that people respect each other's rights. Sometimes, however, laws are passed which are specific to a timeor situation. For example, a town in Indiana once passed a law making it illegal to shoot open a can of food. Apparently, some gun-carrying citizens forgot their can openers and naturally enough, used their guns to do the job. This disturbed other citizens, and endangered their lives, so a law was passed to prevent it.Specific laws sometimes remain in existence long after the problem has disappeared. The laws then seem strange. For example, the Indiana law was no longer necessary when citizens stopped carrying guns and using them as can openers. Since the law was no longer needed, what once made sense now seems like nonsense.Sometimes laws designed to serve a good purpose were passed but somehow these became mixed up in their wording. As a result, the laws don't make sense. In one state there is a law which says that it is "illegal to move or to attempt to move a motor vehicle." Obviously, a massive traffic jam would occur if everyone suddenly obeyed that law. But no one does, of course, because the intention of the law was not to prevent owners from moving their own cars. It was to prevent people from moving (stealing) other people's cars.It is often harder to repeal (废止)a law than to pass one, so many of these old laws remain in existence. Because they nolonger fit the way people live or because the problem no longer exists, these laws are ignored. Everyone understands that and life goes on. Thus, laws that once made very good sense now seem like nonsense.1. According to the passage, laws are designed for the purpose of____________.A. protecting people's rightsB. making people respect each otherC. preventing gun-carryingD. punishing criminals2. The word "job " in paragraph 1 refers to ___________.A. workingB. shootingC. preventing gun-carryingD. disturbing others3. The author used the Indiana law as an example to explain _________.A. how some laws are passed and changedB. how people in Indiana open cansC. why some laws may seem strangeD. why people in Indiana no longer use their guns4. What's the problem with the law concerning motor vehicles?A. It leads to traffic jams.B. It is not clearly written.C. It is not designed to serve a good purpose.D. It has been out of date.5. We can conclude from the passage that ___________.A. a law system is necessary for every societyB. some laws that don't make sense may also get passedC. it is more difficult to change the old law than pass a new oneD. some laws may seem strange as time passes答案:ACCBD(3)、Trees should only be pruned when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and, fortunately, the number of such reasons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away ofovergrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged bythe thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size.The object may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape.

To discuss different methods of pruning.答案:BABCB(4)、The dog has beenman’sbest friend for thousands of years. Dogs are friendly, obedient and faithful animals. Many stories are told of the bravery and faithfulness of dogs.Dogs are also intelligent animals, so it is easy to train them.

The question we are asking is, "Is the commercial true to life, or does it offer an unreal picture of the product?"Sylvester is keeping track of the falsehoods, and he already has quite a long list. He says that all housewives seem to live in lovely homes, dress beautifully, and love their household chores, they smile and boast about floor cleaners and proudly display their dirty laundry, dusty tabletops, and unclean ovens. In addition, he has never seen men doing housework. Sylvester thinks that this view of family life is filled with distortions.I am keeping track of the people who appear in the advertisements. I have found handsome men chasing after the All-American Girl, and they are always recommending brand X toothpasteor brand Y cologne (古龙水). I see teenagers and children surrounded by their friends, having a wonderful time at parties and at school, and they are usually enjoying large, friendly family gatherings. I think that these advertisements are also filled with fantasy.Sylvester and I have concluded that much of American life is pictured unrealistically in commercials. Teenagers do not always have fun at parties, and very few people love doing chores. People do have problems but few of these are ever shown in commercials. Instead, we watch Cinderella discover a miracle floor wax, finish the kitchen chores, and go dancing. Our heads are filled with these fantasies, and they also suggest that, for any problem, brand Z will provide the instant cure. Sylvester and I will have very few facts and a lot of fantasy to write about in our research reports.11. Judging from the context, the relationship between the author and Sylvester is most probablythat of _____.A. research workersB. a professor and a studentC. a father and a sonD. classmates12. According to Sylvester, what can be inferred about housewives in advertisements?A. They are sad and tired.B. They enjoy doing their housework.C. They always have their husbands help them.D. They never touch dirty things13. The author thinks that life of teenagers shown in commercials is _____.A. incompleteB. unrealisticC. true to lifeD. boring14. Sylvester and the author have come to the conclusion that commercials _____.A. are just like American lifeB. are not interesting or entertainingC. are not much like American lifeD. are fun for children15. The most suitable title for the passage is _____.A. A Class Research Project on TVB. American Life to Be ShownC. Children Like to See AdvertisementsD. Distortions in TV AdvertisingPassage TwoChristmas was coming. I wanted a pony. To make sure that my parents understood, I declared that I wanted nothing else, though I did want a pair of high boots.On Christmas Eve I hung up my stocking along with those of my sisters.The next morning my sisters and I woke up at six. Then we raced downstairs to the fireplace. And there they were: the gifts, all sorts of wonderful things. Only my stocking was empty. My sisters were crying with delight till they found me standing there looking so miserable. My sisters and I all cried till I became indignant. That helped some. I drove my sisters away; I went out alone into the stable and wept. My mother tried to comfort me. But I wanted no comfort at that momentI felt I was hurt. And my father must have been hurt, too. I saw him watching me or something through the window for an hour or two, with a look of anxiety on his face.After an hour or two, I caught sight of a man riding a pony down the street. But the man came along, reading the numbers on the houses. He looked at our door and passed by. I fell upon the steps and burst into tears. Soon the man on the pony came back again. After making sure that I was the very boy named Lennie Steffens,he gave it to me, saying something about “ought to have got here at seven o’clock, but—”I hardly heard, and I could scarcely wait. I was so happy, so thrilled. I rode off up the street.But that Christmas, which my father had planned so carefully, was it the best or the worst I ever knew? He often asked me that; I never could answer as a boy. I think now that it was both. It covered the whole distance from broken-hearted misery to bursting happiness—too fast. A grown-up could hardly have stood it.16. Which of the following statements about the man riding on the pony is NOT true?A) It was not easy for him to find Lennie Steffens’ home.B) He had never met Lennie Steffens before.C) He dressed himself as Father Christmas.D) He should have arrived earlier.17. Having found that I hadn’t gotten my gift, all of my family members came to comfort me except______.A) one of my sisters B) all of my sistersC) my mother D) my father18. What is the possible meaning of the underlined word “indignant” in Paragraph 3?A) Angry. B) Depressed.C) Impatient. D) Joyous.19. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A) On Christmas Eve Lennie Steffens did not hang up his stocking along with his sisters’.B) Lennie Steffens was the only boy in the family.C) The delivery of the Christmas gift for the boy was delayed as planned.D) Lennie Steffens didn’t want boots at all.20. What is the best title for the passage?A) A Merry Christmas B) A Miserable ChristmasC) A Miserable, Merry Christmas D) A PonyPassage Thre eDo you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people, the peak comes during the forenoon. For others, it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (振作, 奋发) and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.21. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________.A) he is a lazy personB) he refuses to follow his own energy cycleC) he is not sure when his energy is lowD) he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening22. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?A) Unawareness of energy cycles.B) Familiar monologues.C) A change in a family member’s energy cycle.D) Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.23. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should ________.A) change his energy cycle B) overcome his lazinessC) get up earlier than usual D) go to bed earlier24. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ________.A) help to keep your energy for the day’s workB) help you to control your temper early in the dayC) enable you to concentrate on your routine workD) keep your energy cycle under control all day25. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A) Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.B) Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.C) Habits help a person adapt to his own energy cycle.D) Children have energy cycles, too.III.

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

The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories(卡路里) you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight.When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or a simple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.Keep busy! This way you will not be tempted to go off the diet. Make full use of opportunities to exercise. Try walking instead of riding whenever possible. Happy dieting!1. What is the main idea of the passage?A) How to diet. B) Why we should diet.C) What we should diet. D) Where we should diet.2.

Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called “take a mortgage (抵押)." The bank usually lends money or gives a mortgae for twenty-five years. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $ 50 000. In other words, they will have a $ 50 000 mortgage.How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank. The bank will research you financial (金融的) history and decide if they think you are a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have, what kind of salary you make, and how long you have had the job. They will also want to know how much money you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the-price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment.6. What does a house mean in the United States?A) It is a dream which many people can hardly realize.B) It is so expensive that many people cannot really buy them.C) It is the most important property that many people try to buy.D) It doesn't belong to people if they can't borrow money from the bank.7. If American people borrow money from the bank for 25 years, this means that the person who borrowsA) has twenty-five years to pay back the moneyB) has more than twenty-five years to pay back the moneyC) has less than twenty-five years to pay back the moneyD) has about twenty-five years to pay back the money8. What does“down payment" refer to in the passage?A) Money borrowed from a bank as a mortgage.B) Money paid to a bank before the mortgages is given.C) Interest received by a person who borrows money as the mortgages.D) Interest charged by a bank on a mortgage.9. Which is not one of the things researched by a bank?A) How much money the borrower owns. B) What salary the borrower makes.C) What kind of job the borrower has. D) What kind of house the borrower lives in.10.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1College is a new and different experience for me. I'm away from home, so I have many things to adjust to, e.g. being on my own, talking with friendly people. These are some of the things I like about college.First of all, living at college gives me a sense of responsibility, of being on my own. My parents aren't around to say, "No, you're not going out tonight." or "Did you finish your homework?" Everything I do has to be my decision, and that makes me responsible for my own life. During the second week I was at college, I had to go out and look for a bank where I could open an account. And when I got to the bank, I had to decide whether to have a current or savings account and whether or not to get a credit card. Decisions! Decisions!Friendly people, that's another thing I like about college. On my first day I came to Marymount University here in Virginia from New York, I was a bit confused about where I was going. My mother and I drove in. We did not know the building we were supposed to go to, but the guard was very nice. With a smile, he told us what buildingwe were looking for and where we could park our car. My room was on the first floor of New Gerard, and I knew I had to go through some glass doors, but my mother and I didn't know which ones. Some students saw me and asked, "Are you a new student?" When they found out I was looking for New Gerard, one said: "Oh, just follow us; that's where we're going." Even now I feel comfortable in the dorm because there are friendly people around to talk with.I do like a lot of things about college, but that doesn't mean I don't think about things at home. Although I like college, I can still get homesick: New York is a very good place, too!31.The text is perhaps written by _A a new student _______.32. What does "gives me a sense of responsibility" in the first sentence of Paragraph 2mean? It means ___D_ I shall be responsible for myself ____.33. From Paragraph 3 we know that D. the writer liked his/her dorm very much34. What is New Gerard? C It's a dorm's name35. Which of the following is NOT true? D. The writer is not homesickPassage 2At the center of our solar system is a star called the Sun. It is a ball of very hot gases. Its diameter is more than 100 times as big as that of the Earth. It gives off powerful rays of light in the form of radiant energy. This energy travels to the Earth at a speed of approximately 300,000 kilometers per second. This means that sunlight takes 8.33 minutes to get to the Earth.The temperature on the surface of the Sun is about 5,520°C, and it is much hotter inside. Scientists now believe that the heat of the Sun comes from natural atomic energy. In this process, hydrogen is believed to be changed to helium (氦) with an enormous amount of energy given off. The mass (matter) is changed to energy. This energy is in the form of heat, light, and other forms of radiation.36.

However, the fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor does not that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage; for there are very important differencesbetween the teacher’s work and the actor’s work. The actor has to speak words which he ahs learned by heart ; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part; even his movements and the way in which he uses his voice are usually fixed before . What he has to do is to make all these carefully learned words and actions seem natural on the stage.The good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play, they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they do not understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the need of his audience which is his class. He cannot keep his part in mind, but must invent it as he goes along.I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to play a part in a stage-play because their brains would not keep discipline; they could not keep strictly to what another had written .Part V Writing (15 points)Directions:For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write a note asking for leave based on the information given.Part V WritingMarch 11Dear Mr. Smith,I would like to know if I could ask for a leave of absence from March 12th to the 13th.

He always likes to take part in various social meetings because he wants to make friends with as many people as he can. Usually, when he is invited, he goes, unless he is really ill.Recently, silly Mr. Smith received an invitation to a fashionable party. Although he didn't know the hostess, he accepted the invitation. He was secretly very pleased because he felt that he was becoming more and more popular! When the evening came, he dressed up smartly, took a taxi, and told the driver to go straight to the party. When Mr. Smith got there, he found that about a hundred people had been invited. He began to move around the hall. He spoke to all the other guests, whether he knew them or not. However, he soon realized that he had never met any of the other people present, although they all seemed to know each other. Yet Mr. Smith was feeling happy. He danced and danced with as many pretty women as he could find, feeling on top of the world.When dinner came, he was asked to sit beside a certain woman. The woman tried to be friendly, even though she had never met Mr. Smith before. She spoke politely, whenever he spoke to her. Between the first and second course of the meal, she turned to Mr. Smith and said, "Do you see that gray-haired man at the end of the table?""Ah, yes. Who is he?" asked Smith."He's the Secretary of the International Department!" she replied."So that's the Secretary of the International Department!" Mr. Smith said. "I'm afraid that I find very little to like about him, although he is the Secretary."The woman did not reply. Smith went on, despite her coldness:"I really can't see how he received his post, unless he is perhaps a relative of the President.""It hardly matters whether you like the Secretary or not," she said. "He was chosen because the President thought he was the man for the job. If he does the job well, you should have nothing to say against it.""That's just it," said Smith, not easy to give up. "No one does the things he does, unless he is a full fool!""Sir," said the woman in a proud voice. "Do you know who I am?""No," replied Smith."I am the Secretary's wife," she said coldly.Mr. Smith was greatly surprised, but he went on, in spite of his obvious error:"My dear lady, do you know who I am?""No, I don't," the woman replied."Thank God!" Mr. Smith cried out, and quickly left the table.31.Mr. Smith is famous in Washington because __D______.D. he has made a lot of mistakes at various social meetings32.Recently, silly Mr. Smith received an invitation to a fashionable party.

Omlie of the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics in 1935 conceived a plan to paint town names and directional indicators on the roofs of buildings throughout the United States.At Eleanor Roosevelt’s suggestion, the Bureau of Air Commerce hired women fliers, among them Louise Thaden and Blanche Noyes, to scout sites and get permission for the markers from local officials and building owners. Workers then painted the signs in orange characters, seven to twelve feet high and visible from 3,000 feet. The system soon became the answer to a lost pilot’s prayer with 16,000 markers --- one every 15 miles on every air route in the country.41. What is the best title for this passage?

Reading Comprehension. (2 point for each, altogether 30 points) Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1At most institutions in America students may purchase meals in cafeterias,dining rooms,or snack bars that are either owned and operated by the institution or concessions (出让) that are permitted to operate on the premises under a contractual(契约的)arrangement. Meals served in cafeterias or dining rooms that are associated with college dormitories are prepared for the dormitory residents and must meet certain government nutritional(营养的)standards as well as satisfy local (state or municipal)sanitary(卫生)requirements. The menus are more or less varied,depending on the imagination and resourcefulness of the management,the taste or demands of the student residents,and many other factors. These dining facilities are usually open only during specified meal hours each day.In contrast to this,other campus eating establishments that charge"by the meal" may be open all day and may cater to the taste of a particular clientele (students,faculty and staff,guests of the institution,etc.). Both the cost of a meal and the choice of served food will vary according to the clientele. Snack bars and food vending machines(自动售货机)provide light meals or snacks throughout the day and often remain open until late at night.31. The places where students may have their meals are_______.[A] dining rooms [B]cafeterias[C]snack bars [D] A,B and C.32. Meals served in cafeterias or dining rooms are prepared for_______.[A] dormitory residents[B] faculty members[C] all the students[D] not mentioned33.

This passage mainly tells us about_______.[A] America colleges[B] American students[C] college food service in America[D] How to run a cafeteriaPassage 2Some students at the Open University left school 20 years ago. Others are younger but all must be at least 21 years old. This is one example of how the Open University is different from all other universities. Its students must either work full-time or be at home all day. For instance,mothers of families do not have to pass any examinations before they are accepted as students. This is why the university is called“open”. The university was started in order to help a known group--people who missed having a university education when they were young.The first name for the Open University was“The University of the air”. The idea was to teach “on the air”,in other words on radio and television. Most of the teaching is done like this. Radio and television have brought the classroom into people's homes. But this,on its own,is not enough for a university education. The Open University student also receives advice at one of 283 study centres in the country. 36 weeks of the year he or she has to send written work to a "tutor",the person who guides his or her studies. The student must also spend 3 weeks every summer as a full-time student. Tutors and students meet and study together,as in other universities. At the end of the Open University's first year,the results were good,3 out of every 4 students passed their examinations. If they do this every year,they will finish their studies in 4 or 5 years.36. The purpose of the Open University is to_______.[A] help the young to go to school[B] help those who had missed the chance to study when they were young[C] help those who want to study in the university[D] help those who do housework37. "On the air" means_______.[A]on radio and TV [B]on the flight[C]on the show [D]on the board.38. The students of the Open University have their education_______.[A] both at home and at some study centers[B] with their written work only[C] through many kinds of examinations[D] with the help of their family friends39. "Tutor" in the second paragraph means_______.[A] the person who checks the student's work at home[B] the person who is in charge of the various kinds of exams[C] the person who is to help the students get through the exam[D] the person who inspects the students' studies40. Which of the following is implied but not stated?_______.[A] The Open University has become popular all over the world.[B] Every country needs such a university.[C] Everyone wants to go to such a university.[D] The Open University really benefits a lot those who once lost the chance to have university education.Passage 3The emergency room or “out-patient clinic” of a hospital is staffed and equipped to treat both emergencies and less serious illnesses or injuries. The fees are reasonable but will range from 30 to several hundred dollars depending on the seriousness of the illness or injury.A physician who sees a patient in the doctor's office may charge 30 to 70 for the initial visit,and 20 to 30 for subsequent (以后的) office calls. X-ray,laboratory,and prescription charges will be add to the cost of treatment.If minor surgery is necessary,the student should first determine whether it can be accomplished in the doctor's office to avoid hospitalization,an expensive and time-consuming experience. It is also advisable for the student to discuss the cost of any surgery with the doctor,in order to prepare for it financially.Necessary surgery is worth the cost,regardless of the amount,but unnecessary or "elective" surgery can upset the student's budget and schedule needlessly.41、According to the passage,which of the following cannot usually be treated at the“out-patient clinic”?[A] Emergencies[B] Minor Diseases[C] Slight Injuries[D] Serious Illnesses42. The word “range”in the second sentence of the first paragraph may best be replaced by________.[A] “include”[B] “vary”[C] “increase”[D] “divide”43. For the first office call,a physician may charge his patient_______.[A] 10 [B] 20[C] 50 [D] 20044. According to the passage,_______is an expensive and time-consuming experience.[A] having a minor surgery[B] visiting a doctor in his office[C] staying in a hospital for treatment[D] preparing for any surgery45. This passage is most probably written for_______.[A] college students[B] any kind of patients[C] doctors in the emergency room[D] physicians who overcharge patientsIV. Blanking filling.

ThatcherismThe election of 1979 returned the Conservative Party to power and Margaret Thatcher became the first woman prime minister in Britain. Her policies are popularly referred to as Thatcherism. It included the return to private ownership of state - owned industries, the use of monetarist policies to control inflation, the weakening of trade unions, the strengthening of the role of market forces in the economy, and an emphasis on law and order.2. diversity of American educationDiversity is considered to be an outstanding characteristic of American education. This can be seen not only in type, size and control of the institutions, but educational policies and practices. As is stated by the Tenth Amendment to the United States Constitution, education is a function of the state, not the federal govemment. As each state has the freedom to develop its own school system and delegates its power over education to local districts, many variations can be found in the education system of the 50 states.3. the Canadian ShieldThe Canadian Shield is a semicircular band of rocky highlands and plateaus around Hudson Bay from the northern shores of Quebec to the Arctic shores of the Northwest Territories. It is a region of rounded hills, and tens of thousands of lakes and swamps.4. Australia's service industriesService industries are also called "tertiary industy". This sector now includes an additional "quaternary" level, which covers the research, processing and storage of information. Australia's service sector is the fastestgrowing one. It has been growing in importance, due to higher living standards and greater demand for more and better transport and housing, and the expansion by government of educational, health and welfare services.5. the New DealIn order to deal with the Depression, President Franklin Roosevelt put forward the New Deal program. It passed a lot of New Deal laws and set up many efficient social security systems. The New Deal helped to save American democracy and the development of American economy.V.1. Look at a physical map of the United States and find out and name the main monition ranges, rivers and lakes in the United States.There are two main mountain ranges in the United States. They are the Appalachian Mountains and the Rocky Mountains. There are many important rivers in the United States. The Mississippi River and its two branches, the Missouri River and the Ohio River, flow south to the Gulf of Mexico. On the Pacific side there are two great rivers: the Colorado River and the Columbia River. The Rio Grande River forms a natural boundary between Mexico and the United States. Other well known rivers include the Hudson River which meets the Atlantic Ocean at New Yurk and the Potomac boarding the national capital of Washington. The most important lakes in the United States are the Great Lakes. They are Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. They are all located between Canada and the United States except Lade Michigan.2. How many constituencies are there in Britain today?How many members are there in the House of Commons?To hold general elections, Britain is divided into 651 constituencies, each of which returns one member to the House of Commons. There are 651 members in the House of Commnos.3. What were the effects of European settlement on the Aborigines?White settlement in 1788 proved disastrous for the Aborigines. (1) Aboriginal culture and society were totally disrupted because of a total conflict of cultures. (2) The loss o land to white people led to the breakdown of their tribal life because Aboriginal culture was based on the land. (3) After losing their land, Aborigines became dependent on white handouts. They copied the European habit of drinking alcohol, which destroyed large numbers of Aborigines. (4) The whites also brought many diseases which the Aborigines had no resistance to. (5) All these, combined with the violence between Europeans and Aborigines resulted in the drastically reduction in Aboriginal population. The Aborigines have always been in unfavorable position ever since 1788. The Aborigines still face legal, political, economic and social discrimination today.4. Sinn FeinSinn Fein was the Irish guerrilla movement that wrested independence from the British in 1921. It spit in 1921 over the Anglo - Irish Treaty and became two parties, Fianna Fail and Fine Gael, which remains to be the two major political parties in Ireland today.VI.1. Tell briefly the history of the two - party system in the United States. What are the characteristics of the two major parties in the United States today?There nave been four periods in the history of the two - party system in the United States.(1) During the Ratification period, the first two major parties appeared. They were the Federalists and the Anti - Federalists. After the adoption of the Bill of Rights, the Anti - Federalists began to call themselves Democratic - Republicans. The Federalists gradually disintegrated. (2) After the 1828 election of Andrew Jackson, the Democratic - Republican Party split. The main faction led by Jackson was called the Whig Party which formed in 1834. As the struggle over slavery intensified, the majority of the Whig Party, part of the democrats, and other anti - slavery elements formed the Republican Party in 1854. (3) From 1860s to 1920s, the Republican Party dominated the political scene. (4) From the time of President Franklin Roosevelt to the 1980s, the Democratic Party was dominant, with short interruptions.Traditionally, the Democrats support government intervention in the economy and a strong social security system. While the Republicans stress the role of the market more and oppose large government social security programs. But the two parties are not really very different. They both believe in individualism, defend capitalism and uphold private ownership of means of production. Their organizations are both very loose. But they are both very significant in political life.。

But they also go beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 22, The word geography comes from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for ―earth‖ and graphein, 23means ―to write‖, the English word Geography means ―to describe the earth‖. Some geography books focus on a small area 24 a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an entire continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 25to divide the study of geography is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 26starts with human beings and studies how human beings and their environment act 27each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, neither branch can neglect the other.A geographer might be described 28one who observes, records, and explains the differences between places.If places 29alike, there would be little need for geographers.We know, however, that no two places are exactly the same. Geography, 30is a point of view, a special way of looking at places.21. A.similar B.various C.distant D.famous22. A.whole B.unit C.part D.total23. A.what B.that C.which D.it24. A.outside B.except C.as D.like25. A.way B.means C.habit D.technique26. A.second ter C.next tter27. A.upon B.for C.as D.to28. A.for B.to C.as D.by29. A.being B.are C.be D.were30. A.still B.then C.nevertheless D.moreoverIV. Reading ComprehensionDirections: Each of the passages below is followed by some questions. For each question there are four answers marked A, B, C and D. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. (20 points)Questions 31~35 are based on the Passage 1.Passage 1Learning a foreign language is not a matter of reading some grammar rules and memorizing (牢记、记忆)some vocabulary words—although those are important activities not to be ignored. Acquiring a language is learning a skill, not a body of information. It's as much like learning to swim or ride a bike as it is like learning about the Second World War. That is, you must not only understand the ideas and concepts, have information at hand, but also make your body accustomed to using that information in physical activity: in this case the physical activity involved is speaking, listening, writing and reading.You need, then, not only to memorize and understand, but also to practice!Here are a few brief suggestions on effective practice/study techniques.1. Make your mouth or hand do what your mind is learning. Study out loud. Do go to the lab and work on the tapes. Study with a friend, thus involving yourself in speaking and listening. Try to write sentences or a short paragraph using the skills you have practiced orally.2. Study day by day. You cannot get by in a foreign language course by cramming (临时抱佛脚) at the last minute. You may be able to "learn" vocabulary items that way, but you cannot teach your mouth to use them in sentences.3. Occasionally go back and review "old" topics and vocabulary. Language learning is cumulative (积累的). You learn new skills on the basis of old ones. The more you "recycle"(循环)familiar information and skills, the better you will be able to absorb new ones.4. Don't be afraid to make mistakes. Self-consciousness (自我意识) can be a mighty obstacle to learning a language. Perhaps part of the reason small children readily acquire languages is that they are not afraid of making mistakes.31. The first paragraph of the passage is to emphasize that.A. memorizing vocabulary words is necessary in language learningB.learning to swim is quite similar to learning about the Second World WarC.understanding the ideas and concepts is more important than anything elsenguage learning is a process of acquiring different language skills32. One of the advantages of studying with a friend is that.A.it makes one talk in a particular languageB.it strengthens the friendship between two friendsC.friends can share tapes or other learning materialsD.one studies better in a friendly atmosphere33. Cramming should be avoided while learning a language because.A.it is of little use to study without a clear purposeB.nothing can be learnt through crammingC.anything learnt that way can hardly be put into useD.one may not find enough time to use at the last minute34. The purpose of reviewing old topics is.A. to build up a good foundation for new skillsB.to appreciate the good ideas contained in themC.to throw away the old, useless informationD.to avoid making mistakes in the future35.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Why Children Are Capable of Learning a Language Better Than Grown-upsB.A Few Brief Suggestions on Studying a Foreign LanguageC.Why Learning a Foreign Language Is More Difficult Than Anything ElseD.An Introduction to Language Teaching and LearningQuestions 36~40 are based on the Passage 2.Passage 2Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become "computer-literate." But not all experts agree that this is a good idea. One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees is David Tebbutt, the founder of Computertown UK.Although many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer, David does not see it that way. He says that Computertown UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to people and make them ―people-literate." David Tebbutt thinks Computertowns are most successful when tied to a computer club but he insists there is an important difference between the two; the clubs are for people who have some computer knowledge already. This frightens away non-experts, who are happier going to Computertowns where there are computers for them to experiment on. With experts to encourage them and answer any questions they have, they are not told what to do. They find out. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to answer all questions people ask. People don't have to learn computer terms, but the experts have to explain in plain language. The computers are becoming "people-literate."36. Which of the following is David Tebbutt's idea on the relationship between people and computers?A. Computer learning should be made easier.B.There should be more computer clubs for experts.C.People should work harder to master computer use.puters should be made cheaper so that people can afford them.37. We can infer from the text that "computer-literate" means.A.being able to afford a computerB.being able to write computer programsC.working with the computer and finding out its valueD.understanding the computer and knowing how to use it38. The underlined word "it" in the second paragraph refers to the idea that Computertowns .A.help to set up more computer clubsB.bring people to learn to use computersC.bring more experts to work togetherD.help to sell computers to the public39. David Tebbutt started Computertown UK with the purpose of.A.making better use of computer expertsB.improving computer programsC.increasing computer salesD.popularizing computers40. Which of the following is NOT true?.A.Many people think that Computertown UK is a good way to bring people closer to the computer.puter clubs are for those computer-literate people.C.Everyone think people should be ―computer-literate.‖D.The computer experts have to be able to answer all questions in plain language.V. TranslationDirections:Put each of the following sentences into English or Chinese, using the word(s) given in the bracket if any. Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET. (20 points)41. To tell the truth, we don't really have much in common, but we get along really well.42. Although there is no cure for the common cold, doctors believe that vitamins can help prevent them.43. Whether you come through the front door, or sail right up to the deck, you'll enjoy this wonderful restaurant, where the fish and other seafood are fresh and truly a treasure.44.如果你能把你的成就大致列一个提纲,会对你很有帮助,然后练习在镜子前、朋友面前或录象机前大声地讲话。

Reading Comprehension. (2 point for each, altogether 30 points) Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1At most institutions in America students may purchase meals in cafeterias,dining rooms,or snack bars that are either owned and operated by the institution or concessions (出让) that are permitted to operate on the premises under a contractual(契约的)arrangement. Meals served in cafeterias or dining rooms that are associated with college dormitories are prepared for the dormitory residents and must meet certain government nutritional(营养的)standards as well as satisfy local (state or municipal)sanitary(卫生)requirements. The menus are more or less varied,depending on the imagination and resourcefulness of the management,the taste or demands of the student residents,and many other factors. These dining facilities are usually open only during specified meal hours each day.In contrast to this,other campus eating establishments that charge"by the meal" may be open all day and may cater to the taste of a particular clientele (students,faculty and staff,guests of the institution,etc.). Both the cost of a meal and the choice of served food will vary according to the clientele. Snack bars and food vending machines(自动售货机)provide light meals or snacks throughout the day and often remain open until late at night.31. The places where students may have their meals are_______.[A] dining rooms [B]cafeterias[C]snack bars [D] A,B and C.32. Meals served in cafeterias or dining rooms are prepared for_______.[A] dormitory residents[B] faculty members[C] all the students[D] not mentioned33. Meals must come to_______.[A] certain government nutritional standards[B] local sanitary requirements[C] under a contractual arrangement[D] A and B34. Other campus eating establishments may be open_______.[A]during specified meal hours [B]all day[C]all day and night [D] A and B.35. This passage mainly tells us about_______.[A] America colleges[B] American students[C] college food service in America[D] How to run a cafeteriaPassage 2Some students at the Open University left school 20 years ago. Others are younger but all must be at least 21 years old. This is one example of how the Open University is different from all other universities. Its students must either work full-time or be at home all day. For instance,mothers of families do not have to pass any examinations before they are accepted as students. This is why the university is called“open”. The university was started in order to help a known group--people who missed having a university education when they were young.The first name for the Open University was“The University of the air”. The idea was to teach “on the air”,in other words on radio and television. Most of the teaching is done like this. Radio and television have brought the classroom into people's homes. But this,on its own,is not enough for a university education. The Open University student also receives advice at one of 283 study centres in the country. 36 weeks of the year he or she has to send written work to a "tutor",the person who guides his or her studies. The student must also spend 3 weeks every summer as a full-time student. Tutors and students meet and study together,as in other universities. At the end of the Open University's first year,the results were good,3 out of every 4 students passed their examinations. If they do this every year,they will finish their studies in 4 or 5 years.36. The purpose of the Open University is to_______.[A] help the young to go to school[B] help those who had missed the chance to study when they were young[C] help those who want to study in the university[D] help those who do housework37. "On the air" means_______.[A]on radio and TV [B]on the flight[C]on the show [D]on the board.38. The students of the Open University have their education_______.[A] both at home and at some study centers[B] with their written work only[C] through many kinds of examinations[D] with the help of their family friends39. "Tutor" in the second paragraph means_______.[A] the person who checks the student's work at home[B] the person who is in charge of the various kinds of exams[C] the person who is to help the students get through the exam[D] the person who inspects the students' studies40. Which of the following is implied but not stated?_______.[A] The Open University has become popular all over the world.[B] Every country needs such a university.[C] Everyone wants to go to such a university.[D] The Open University really benefits a lot those who once lost the chance to have university education.Passage 3The emergency room or “out-patient clinic” of a hospital is staffed and equipped to treat both emergencies and less serious illnesses or injuries. The fees are reasonable but will range from 30 to several hundred dollars depending on the seriousness of the illness or injury.A physician who sees a patient in the doctor's office may charge 30 to 70 for the initial visit,and 20 to 30 for subsequent (以后的) office calls. X-ray,laboratory,and prescription charges will be add to the cost of treatment.If minor surgery is necessary,the student should first determine whether it can be accomplished in the doctor's office to avoid hospitalization,an expensive and time-consuming experience. It is also advisable for the student to discuss the cost of any surgery with the doctor,in order to prepare for it financially.Necessary surgery is worth the cost,regardless of the amount,but unnecessary or "elective" surgery can upset the student's budget and schedule needlessly.41、According to the passage,which of the following cannot usually be treated at the“out-patient clinic”?[A] Emergencies[B] Minor Diseases[C] Slight Injuries[D] Serious Illnesses42. The word “range”in the second sentence of the first paragraph may best be replaced by________.[A] “include”[B] “vary”[C] “increase”[D] “divide”43. For the first office call,a physician may charge his patient_______.[A] 10 [B] 20[C] 50 [D] 20044. According to the passage,_______is an expensive and time-consuming experience.[A] having a minor surgery[B] visiting a doctor in his office[C] staying in a hospital for treatment[D] preparing for any surgery45. This passage is most probably written for_______.[A] college students[B] any kind of patients[C] doctors in the emergency room[D] physicians who overcharge patientsIV. Blanking filling.
