1：0uestions(30—34)are based on passage 1． 1 0 pointsPassage 1Born In The U．S．A．As a creation of the Defense Department and U．S．universities，the Internet at first drew mostly U．S．bureaucrats and academics．Although its founders assigned domain names for about 250 countries—such as．uk for the United Kingdom and．no for Norway—U．S．domination continued even when the Net became more commercial．“If the U．S．could have invented a device t0 export their culture and their policies and the whole fabric of theAmerican experiment，they couldn’t have done better，” said Don Heath，president of t11e nonprofit Internet Society in Reston，Va．A strong private sector made this domination possible，said David Colton of theInformation Technology Association of America in Arlington，Va．Private phone lines in the United States allow cheap connections to the Net，and business entrepreneurs provide money for risky start-ups．With few users outside the United States，foreign companies had little incentive to produce their own content．And with scant local content，foreign residents had littleincentive to connect．As recently as a year ago，many Europeans avoided the Internet，viewing it as“an American toy，”said Liesbeth Hop，president of Pro Active International，an Internet research group based in Amsterdam．Most U．S．-based retail sites are in English and deal in U．S．dollars．They also typically require credit cards，she said，even though Europeans are used to billing or cash on delivery．However，foreign businesses have been busily moving onto the Internet，especially in thetravel industry．“It’S still considered a very American network，though we are making it ours at the moment，” Hop said．And programmers around the world are developing software to translate text into other languages，although there still are kinks that make mistakes，such as changing Bill Gates to “invoice of fences．”Questions(30—34)Multiple Choice：Choose the best answer among the choices given．Write the appropriate letters in the space indicated on the answer sheet．30·Bureaucrats area．office bossesb．government administratorsC．clerksd．people who make office furniture31．Assigned means ．a．made legalb．agreed onc．allocatedd．invented32．Entrepreneurs are ．a．businessmen who invest their own moneyb．business employeesC．middlemend．gamblers33．incentive means ．a．desireb．positive reasonC．enthusiasmd．reward34．retail sites are ．a．supermarketsb．shopsC．money-changersd．Internet sales operationsPart 2：Questions(35—38)are based on passage 2·10 pointsPassage 21．Shortly after Brenda Tallman had arrived as publisher at the Plattsburgh PressRepublican in northeastern New York State，in 1986，she learned an important lesson about small—town newspapering in the United States．“You have to remember that the person you are talking about is probably rela ted to theperson you are talking to，” she says with a slight grin．Understanding human nature is absolutely essential to the survival and growth of America’s small—town newspapers·Through the eyes of newspaper people，the grand designs of the U．S．Constitu tion’sprotection of press freedom appear less monumental when they are viewed alongside patternsof long—standing，close-knit relationships in a place like Plattsburgh．2．Tallman，who has been in the newspaper business for all of her adult life，is anemphatic defender of press freedom．Since coming to Plattsburgh，she has had to resist community pressure on several occasions for the sake of full , fair，and accurate newscoverage．3．But in a small city like Plattsburgh，with a population of 26，000，one need not recite the constitutional protections from the rooftops．The sensibility and close associations of small towns can be taken into account，Tallman believes，without damaging a newspaper’sright to unfettered publication．4．“Our role as a small—town newspaper is to make people aware of their surroundings and the changes that are taking place，” Tallman explains during an interview at the modern newspaper plant，located in the downtown area．The population demographics have remainedrelatively stable for generations in Plattsburgh．’5．Government-related industries such as prisons，customs，and border patrols(Plattsburgh is some 45 kilometers from the U.S．_Canadian border)employ a largepercentage of the civilian population．6．“People who live here went to school with one another；they know everybody’s sins and weaknesses；they remember the‘F’[failing grade-]on the mathematics test in secondary school，”explains Tallman．“Certainly we are mindful of the readership and the community we serve．and the makeup Of the area．So we do some things that other papers don’t．It’s important if someone has won an award，and we do a lot of the‘chicken dinner’[community activities-I stuff That’s our purpose．”·7．The Press-Republican has a circulation of over 23，000 in a three—county area，placing it among the ranks of hundreds of other small U．S．dailies．Because their audiences are much smaller，more specific，and more familiar，community media such as local newspaper，television，and radio operations must approach the news differently from their big-city counterparts．Coverage is targeted to the needs and desires of a narrow audience．Thus，happenings that might rate only a line or two，if that，in a metropolitan paper receive full—blown attention in the local media．Questions 35—38 Matching：Match each of the items in column A with 2 or 3 related itemsPart 3：Questions(39—48)are based on passage 3. 20 pointsPassage 3(A)Marriage at St．Mary’sA hundred and fifty guests attended the marriage ceremony of Jane Francis Harrison，of Morton，and Henry Barlow from Surrey．The Reverend J．H．Casey officiated at the St．Mary’s church．The bride，who wore a white silk gown and carried a spray of white roses and gypsophila，was given away by her father，Felix Harrison．She was attended by three bridesmaids in pale pink silk dresses，and a page boy in a sailor suit．The best man was William Barlow，the groom’s brother After the ceremony，there was a buffet reception at the County Hotel．The happy couple spent the first night of their married life in the hotel，before leaving Morton on Sunday morning，for a honeymoon in Scotland．(B)Local man weds Chinese doctorGuests at Morton registry office on Saturday enjoyed the marriage ceremony of WangYang，from Shanghai，China and local man，David Gibson．The couple met three years ago in Manchester，where Wang was studying medicine．The bride wore a traditional Chinese dress of red silk and carried yellow roses．Thewitnesses were the bride’s close fr iend，Ling Mei，and the bridegroom’s friend，PhilipWard．An informal reception party for the couple was held at the home of the groom’s parents，Mr ．and Mrs ．Amold Gibson．The couple left for a honeymoon in the south of France on Saturday evening．Questions 39—43．Guided Summary：Fill the blanks with one t0 two words from Passage 3“complete the summary．Text A and B are two local news items from a newspaper．Both items give accounts of recent marriages．In text A，the bride wore a white silk gown and carried white roses，she was attended by three 39 and a 40 boy．The groom’s brother，William Barlow，was the 41 that day．In text B ，the couple held wedding ceremony in a 42 office．The type of reception is 43．Questions 44—48．True or False：Mark the following statements as T(true)or F(false)on your answer sheet．44．The two people who accompany a couple who get married in a registry office are thewitnesses．45．When the bride is given away by her father，it means her father presents her to herfuture husband．46．The boy who

For most Americans, two of these stand out above the others as occasions to cherish national originsThanksgiving and the Fourth of July.1. Thanksgiving Day is the fourth Thursday in November, but many Americans takea day of vacation on the following Friday to make a four-day weekend, during which they may travel long distances to visit family and friends. The holiday dates back to 1621, the year after the Puritans arrivedin Massachusetts, determined to practice their dissenting religion without interference.After a rough winter, in which about half of them died, they turned for help to neighboring Indians, who taught them how to plant corn and other crops. The next fall' s bountiful harvest inspired the Pilgrims to give thanks by holding a feast. The Thanksgiving feast became a national tradition--not only because so many other Americans have found prosperity but also because the Pilgrims' sacrifices for their freedom still captivate the imagination. To this day, Thanksgiving dinner almost always includes some of the foods served at the first feast: roast turkey, cranberry sauce, potatoes, pumpkin pie. Before the meal begins, families or friends usually pause to give thanks for their blessings, including the joy of being united for the occasion.2. The Fourth of July, or Independence Day, honors the nation's birthday--the signing of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776. It is a day of picnics and patriotic parades, a night of concerts and fireworks. The flying of the American flag (which also occurs on Memorial Day and other holidays) is widespread. On July 4, 1976, The 200th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence was marked by grand festivals across the mation.Besides Thanksgiving and the Fourth of July, there are six other uniquely American holidays.3. Martin Luther King Day: The Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., an African-American clergyman, is considered a great American because of his tireless efforts to win civil rights for all people through nonviolent means. Since his assassination in 1968, memorial services have marked his birthday on January 15. In 1986, that day was replaced by the third Monday of January, which was declared a national holiday.4. Presidents' Day: Until the mid-1970s, the February 22 birthday of George Washington, hero of the Revolutionary War and first president of the United States, was a national holiday. In addition, the February 12 birthday of Abraham Lincoln, the president during the Civil War, was a holiday in most states. The two days have been joined, and the holiday has been expanded to embrace all past presidents. It is celebrated on the third Monday in February.5. Memorial Day: Celebrated on the fourth Monday of May, this holiday honors the dead. Although it originated in the aftermath of the Civil War, it has become a day on which the dead of all wars, and the dead generally, are remembered in special programs held in cemeteries, churches, and other public meeting places.6. Labor Day: The first Monday of September, this holiday honors the nation' s working people, typically with parades. For most Americans it marks the end of the summer vacation season, and for many students the opening of the school year.7. Columbus Day: On October 12, 1492, Italian navigator Christopher Columbus landed in the New World. Although most other nations of the Americas observe this holiday on October 12, in the United States it takes place on the second Monday in October.8. Vetrans Day: Originally called Armistice Day, this holiday was established to honor Americans who had served in World War I. It falls on November 11, the day when that war ended in 1918, but it now honors veterans of all wars in which the United States has fought. Veterans' organizations hold parades, and the president customarily places a wreath on the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery, across the Potomac from Washington, D.C.chose one correct answer from a. b. c. or d to answer questions 26 -44 based on your understanding of the passage.26.

His most talented student was Frank Lloyd Wright (1869--1959), who spent much of his career designing private residences with matching furniture and generous use of open space. One of his best-known buildings, however, is a public one: the Guggenheim Museum in New York City.European architects who emigrated to the United States before World War Il launched what became a dominant movement in architecture, the International Style. Perhaps the most influential of these immigrants were Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886--1969)and Walter Gropius (1883--1969), both former directors of Germany' s famous design school, the Bauhaus. Based on geometric forms, buildings in their style have been both praised as monuments to American corporate life and dismissed as “glass boxes.” In reaction, younger American architects such as Michael Graves (1945--) have rejected the austere, boxy look in favor of “postmodern” buildings with striking contours and bold decoration that alludes to historical styles of architecture.45.

It is 21. 7 kilometers long and 3.8 kilometers wide at its widest point. It contains New York's tallest buildings as well as some of the largest schools and colleges, and the most famous financial and theater districts in the United States. It has skyscrapers and Central Park, the old and the new, the best and the worst. It is like no other big city. It is unique.To understand Manhattan, we must know something of its early history: its early days of Dutch colonists and English settlers; the waves of nineteenth @ century European immigrants who arrived at its shores; the African @ Americans who moved north after the Civil War; recent immigrants from China and other parts of Asia; and young people who go to New York from all over America. It is a mix of ethnic groups and cultures, successes and failures, hopes and fears.The United States is a nation of immigrants and no other city displays this fact as well as New York City. From Chinatown and Little 1taly to Harlem, New York is a place where communities take pride in retaining their ethnicity. Most immigrants went to America with very little. They were the poor and unhappy in their OWTI countries. America gave them hope and a new beginning. Millions of immigrants have prospered in America.On July 4, 1884, the people of France gave to the United States as a symbol of friendship, a statue sculptured by Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. This statue was placed on an island in New York Harbor. It is 46 meters high and is' the first sight immigrants see as they come into New York City by ship. It is known as the Statue of liberty. On the statue is a poem written by Emma Lazarus. This poem sums up the American tradition of accepting people from other countries. It follows: Give me your tired, your poor,Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,The -wretched refuse of your teeming shore.Send these, the homeless, tempest —tossed to me,I lift my lamp beside the golden door!Questions 30 —34.

New York City is ________.A. the only big city with a ChinatownB. the largest city in the worldC. home to many ethnic groupsD. the richest city on earthPart 2: Questions 35 —39 are based on the following passage. 10 pointsAmericans assume that people need some time to themselves or some time alone to think about things or recover their spent psychological energy. Americans have great difficulty understanding people who always want to be with another person and who dislike being alone. In America a person wants to have a space that's his or hers without having to share it with anyone else. Having someone read an .American's mail or touch an American's possessions can cause a serious problem for a well —meaning person of another culture who does not understand American values.If parents can afford it, each child will have Ills or her own bedroom. Having one' sown bedroom, even as an infant, instills in that person the idea that he/she is entitled to a place of his/her own where he/ she can be by him/herself and keep his/her possessions. American children have their own clothes, toys and textbooks. American parents often do not even enter their children's rooms without their children's permission.Americans assume that people have their private thoughts that might never be shared with anyone. Doctors, lawyers and other have rules that prevent information from becoming public or known to anyone but the client and the professional.Americans are difficult to understand as their homes and offices seem open and inviting. Yet there are boundaries people do not cross. Although Americans are friendly, it may be difficult to establish a friendship with an American. Time is the American ' s most valuable possession and, if one wastes his/her time, the American is usually angry.Integrity is often seen by Americans as the most important virtue. Integrity is keeping one 's word. If an American gives anyone his word, he will honor it especially if he/she is from the Southern United States. In oilier parts of the country one's \vord often has to be on paper. Writing an agreement makes it official. "Writing a complaint makes it official.Questions 35 —39. Based on the information in the text, match the explanation In Column B with the attitude In Column A. On your answer sheet, write the appropriate letters In the spaces given.A B35. Americans ' attitude A. They don' t like people who always wanttowards being alone to be with another person.B. Parents often don't enter their children' srooms without their children ' s permission.36. Americans ' attitude C. Some personal information is preventedtowards children from becoming public or being known.D. They keep their words.37. Americans ' attitude E. They put their words on paper to maketowards private thoughts them official.F. They can think about things alone or re-cover their spent psychological energy.G. Some of the thoughts never shared withothers.38. Americans ' attitude H. It seems the homes and offices are nottowards home and office open and inviting.1. Integrity is the most important virtue.J. Kach child will have his or her own bed-room.39. Americans ' attitude K. They will be upset if their mails are readtowards integrity by someone.L. There are boundaries people do not cross.Part 3: Questions 40 @ 49 are based on the following passage. 20 pointsWelcome to Bering Foreign Studies UniversityBeijing Foreign Studies University (BFSU) is situated In the north west of Beijing, in Haidian District.

R eadi n g Test 40poi n t sPart 1: Questions (30 --34) are based on passage 1. 10 pointsBoost for Beijing -Tianjin Sa ndstorm Contr ol ProgramAs spring draws near, Beijingers' thoughts are turning to the annual onslaught of March sandstorms on their city -- ordeals which see many tons of sand and grit dumped on large areas and which get into buildings and clog people's hair, eyes and nostrils. Last yea r saw one two-day storm dump more than 30 tons of choking sand/grit on local streets before high winds carried it east to South Korea. Meanwhile, in efforts to reduce the effects of the storms, the Chinese government is reinforcing the Beijing--Tianjin sandstorm source, control program with new policies to boostthe efficacy of current tree-planting and' greening~ measures.: The program covers 75counties in Hebei and Shanxi provinces, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous region and Beijingand Tianjin municipalit ies -- a total area of 458,000 square kilometers. Over the next 10years, 205,000 square kilometers of desert and soil-eroded land will be grassed.To date, a total of 2. 28 million hectares of such land have been transformed and 1.4million hectares of woods planted. Just over two million hectares of new grassland andforestry have emerged in the regions covered by the program, resulting in a gradualimprovement in overall ecological conditions.Despite this, it has become harder for the program to be carried out. To reduce ornegate sandstorms in the capital as soon as possible, it is imperative to readjust currentpolicies for desertification control and afforestation under the present program. Thus newpolicies will include permission for indi viduals to enjoy the same state subsidies forafforestation as official economic entities.Questions (30- 34) Multiple Choice: Choose the best answer among the choices given.

Jody and I were classmates at hi gh school and were attracted to each other from the time we first met at the age of twelve or thirteen. We always hung out together and started dating seriously when we were only fifteen. I was so excited the first time I asked her out! After that, we spen t every spare moment together.Everyone... our parents, teachers, friends and so on... predicted that we'd break up one day. We were determined to prove them wrong and were engaged when we were nineteen. The evening I proposed was like something from a romantic novel. I chose my moment and asked the magic question: "Jody, darling, will you marry me?" her answer was a few tears of happiness. It seems crazy when I look back on it! Again, everyone was expecting us to break off the engagement, but we never even considered that.A year later, we had a typical, big wedding ceremony and Jody really did look the perfect, beautiful bride in her white gown. We had a great time in Lake Taho for our honeymoon and came back and settled down to married life. Jessica, our daughter, was born, according to plan, two years after we were married and that was when our problems began.We were both delighted to be parents, but somehow we just grew further and further apart from each other. We were arguing, the whole time and were both very miserable. Eventually, after four years, we separated and then, divorced. I still see Jessica regularly. I can't say I enjoy living alone, but I haven't yet found another partner. Jody is dating a guy who lives in the same apartment house as her but I don't think their relationship is really serious. I'm really sad about our divorce, hut I guess everyone was right: we were too young when we started going together and, the truth is, we were never really compatible. Questions 40-43.
