Part3Reading Comprehension Section A
Directions:There are3passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.Choose the,best answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage One
Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.I always encourage such people,but I also explain that there's a big difference between being a writer and writing.In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame,not the long hours alone at a typewriter.“Y ou’ve got to want to write,”I say to them,“not want to be a writer.,’
The reality is that writing is a lonely,private and poor-paying affair.For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded.When I left a 20-year career in the U.S.Coast Guard to become a freelance writer,I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found for me my room in a New Y ork apartment building.It didn't even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.
After a year or so,however,I still hadn't got a break and began to doubt myself.It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat.But I knew I wanted to write.I had dreamed about it for years.I wasn't going to be one of those people who died wondering.What if I would keep putting my dream to test(even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure). This is the shadow-land of hope,and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.
51.The passage is meant to_______.
A)warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience
B)encourage young people to pursue a writing career
C)show young people it is unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth
D)advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer
52.What can be concluded from the passage?
A)A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.
B)Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.
C)Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.
D)The chances for writers to become successful are small.
53.Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?
A)He found his dream would never come true.
B)He hadn't seen a change for the better.
C)He wasn't able to have a rest for a whole year.
D)He was not able to produce a single book.
54.In Line13“...people who died wondering”,“who”refers to those.
A)who think a lot without making a decision
B)who regret giving up their career halfway
C)who think too much of the dark side of life
D)who are full of imagination even upon death
Passage Two

A travel agent can give you information on special economy fares for trains,buses and planes.Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip,too.Y ou‘ll not only save money,but you'll also see a lot more of the country.
Some students may want to travel by car.Be sure to think about going with other students—many colleges have'‘ride boards”that list when and where other students plan to travel.Many radio stations provide the same,sort of service—they announce who’s driving where,when,how many riders they will take and what the expenses will be.
There are many inexpensive,older hotels near bus or train stations.Check your travel guide for names of the best.Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where young people can stay for only a few dollars a night.
Y ou don't have to eat in restaurants all the time,but we don?t recommend a diet of candy and cola,either.Y ou can usually get a healthy,cheap breakfast in a restaurant.If the weather is warm,you can buy food in supermarkets or at roadside stands and have a picnic for lunch.For dinner you can get the names of good,cheap restaurants from travel guides or friends.

Passage Three
Emily Dickinson was a nineteenth-century American woman who lived her life completely unknown to anyone except her family and a few friends.Less than a dozen of her poems were published during her lifetime.In spite of this,she is regarded today as a great poet, perhaps the greatest poet the United States has produced.Along with the Greek poet Sappho,she may be one oi the two greatest women poets who have ever lived.
Dickinson was born on December10,1830,in a small Massachusetts town called Amherst.Hers was an oid family;her ancestors had come lo the United States200years before. Her parents were not really rich,but they were certainly not poor.She had an older brother,Austin, and a younger sister,Lavinia.Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people,and the members of the family spent a good deal of time by themselves.She doesn’t seem to have liked her mother very much.She spoke once of never really having a mother.
She was educated at the local Amherst Academy and Mount Holyoke Women’Seminary. Although she was sometimes described as pretty,she never married.In all outward respects,her life appeared to be rather boring.
The time and place in which she lived was not a good one for a woman artist to succeed. Women are expected to be obedient to men and to remain in their place at home.Rather than waste her life in the meaningless round of social events that were open to women,she decided at some point to retreat from the world in order to write her poetry.From then on,she spent a great deal oftime in her bedroom writing.In later years when she was standing in front of her bedroom door,she looked at her niece and said,“It’s just a turn-and freedom,Mary!”It was when she closed the door of her room and turned the key that locked the door that the most important and
s
creative hours of her life were spent,the hours when she wrote her poetry.She was regarded as a recluse by many of her neighbors,that is,as a person who spent a good deal of time by herself.
59.According to the author,who is the greatest woman poet in America?
A)Both Sappho and Dickinson B)Emily Dickinson
C)Sappho D)Not mentioned
60.Women in Emily Dickinson’s time______.
A)are regarded as recluses
B)are expected to be obedient to men
C)spend most of their time in social event
D)are expected to retreat from the world
61.Emily Dickinson's ancestors came to the United States in around.
A)1630B)1830C)1730D)1930
62.Which of the following statement is NOT true?
A)It is quite likely that Emily Dickinson didn't like her mother.
B)Emily Dickinson regarded being locked in her room as“freedom”.
C)She is well-known in her lifetime and is still regarded as a great poet now.
D)Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people,and they spent a good deal of
time with their family members.
