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 and
mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet
with a single line
through the centre.
Passage 1
(81) In ancient times wealth was
measured and exchanged in things that could be
touched：food,
tools, and precious metals and
stone. Then the barter system was replaced by
coins, which still had
real value since they
were pieces of rare metal. Coins were followed by
fiat money, paper notes that
have value only
because everyone agrees to accept them.
Today electronic monetary systems are gradually
being introduced that will transform money

------
into
even less tangible forms, reducing it to a series
of and bytesor units of computerized
information, going between machines at the

computers and telecommunications
devices.

Passage Two
At the University of
Kansas art museum, scientists tested the effect of
different colored walls on
two groups of
visitors to an exhibit of paintings. For the first
group the room was painted white; for
the
second, dark brown. Movement of each group was
followed by an electrical equipment under the
carpet.(82)The experiment showed that those
who entered the dark brown walked more quickly,
covered more area, and spent less time in the
room than people in the white one. Dark brown made
people more active, but the activity ended
sooner. Not only the choice of colors but also the
general
appearance of a room affects those
inside. Another experiment presented people with
photographs of
faces whose energy was to be
commented on. Three groups of people were used~
each was shown the
same photos, but each
'group was in an ordinary room--a nice office. The
third was in a tastefully
designed living room
with carpeting. Results showed that the people in
the beautiful room tend to
give higher marks
to the faces than those in the ugly room did.
Other studies show that students do
better on
tests taken in comfortable rooms than in ordinary
--looking or ugly rooms.

Passage Three
The water we drink and use
is running short in the world. We all have to
learn how to stop wasting
our limited water.
One of the steps we should take is to find ways of
reusing it. Experiments have
already been done
in this field.
Today in most large cities,
fresh water is used only once, then it runs into
waste system. But it is
possible to pipe the
used water to a purifying factory. (83) There it
can be filtered and treated with
chemicals so
that it can be used again, just as it were fresh
from a spring.
But even if every large city
purified and reused its water, we still would not
have enough. Then we
could turn to the oceans.
All we'd have to do to make use of the seawater on
earth is to get rid of the
salt. (84)This
process is called desalinization, and it is
already in use in many parts of the world.
51.
The way to stop wasting our limited water is
to_______.
A. do experiments with water
B. purify the used water and reuse it
C. use
fresh water once again D. make use of
seawater
52. The following tells us how to
reuse the used water. Which is the right order of
the passage?
A. to pipe the used water to be
purified in a factory→to put chemicals in it→to
have the used
--------------------------------

B. to put chemicals in it→to have the
used water filtered→to pipe it to the users→to
pipe the used
water to be purified in a
factory
C. to pipe it to the users→to have the
used water filtered→to pipe the used water to be
purified in
a factory→to put chemicals in it
D. to pipe the used water to be purified in a
factory→to have the used Water filtered→to put
chemicals in it→to pipe it to the users
58. There wouldn't be enough water for us if

A. turn to the oceans for
more water
B. reuse used water and make use ok

A. How to Reuse Water
B. Two Solutions to
the Problem of Water Shortage
C. Stop Wasting
Our Limited Water
D. How to Make Use of
Seawater
Passage Four
Some people hate everything
that is modern. They cannot imagine how anyone can
really like
modern music; they find it hard to
accept the new fashions in clothing; they think
that all modern
paintings are ugly; and they
seldom have a good word for the new buildings that
are being built
everywhere in the world. Such
people look for perfection in everything, and they
take their standards
of perfection from the
past. They are usually impatient with anyone who
is brave enough to
experiment with new
materials or to express himself or the age in
original ways. It is, of course, true
that
many artists do not succeed in their work and
instead produce works that can only be considered
as failures. If the work of art is a painting,
the artist's failure concerns himself alone, but
if it is a
building, his failure concerns
others too, because it may damage the beauty of
the whole place. This
does sometimes happen,
but it is completely untrue to say, as some people
do, that modern
architecture is nothing.
(85)We can't judge every modern building by the
standards of the ancient time, even though we
admire the ancient buildings. Technologically,
the modern buildings are more advanced. The modern
architect knows he should learn from the
ancient works, but with his greater resources of
knowledge
and materials, he will never be
content to imitate the past. He is too proud to do
that.

modern because______.
A. they are aged
B.
they find it hard to accept modern things
C.
they take their standards of perfection from the
Greek
D. they look at things by the standards
of the past
57. The writer of the passage
thinks that_____.
A. it is true to say artists
fail in their work
B. it is untrue to say
artists fail in their work
C. it is true to
say some artists fail in their work
D. it is
true to say only painters fail in their work
58. The writer thinks the failure of a
building_______.
A. means nothing
B. concerns others
C. concerns only the
artist D. concerns all the
people in the world

by the ancient standards
B. we can't judge
all the buildings by the ancient standards
C. we can't judge all the modern buildings by the
ancient standards

buildings
60. Technologically, the modern

technology

are advanced because they are completely different
from the ancient
buildings
D. the modern
buildings are more beautiful

Ⅱ.Reading Comprehension（50分）
Directions：In this part there are four
passages. 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 and
mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet
with a single line
through the centre.
Passage 1
(81) In ancient times wealth was
measured and exchanged in things that could be
touched：food,
tools, and precious metals and
stone. Then the barter system was replaced by
coins, which still had
real value since they
were pieces of rare metal. Coins were followed by
fiat money, paper notes that
have value only
because everyone agrees to accept them.
Today electronic monetary systems are gradually
being introduced that will transform money

into
even less tangible forms, reducing it to a series
of and bytesor units of computerized

Passage Two
At the University of
Kansas art museum, scientists tested the effect of
different colored walls on
two groups of
visitors to an exhibit of paintings. For the first
group the room was painted white; for
the
second, dark brown. Movement of each group was
followed by an electrical equipment under the
carpet.(82)The experiment showed that those
who entered the dark brown walked more quickly,
covered more area, and spent less time in the
room than people in the white one. Dark brown made
people more active, but the activity ended
sooner. Not only the choice of colors but also the
general
appearance of a room affects those
inside. Another experiment presented people with
photographs of
faces whose energy was to be
commented on. Three groups of people were used~
each was shown the
same photos, but each
'group was in an ordinary room--a nice office. The
third was in a tastefully
designed living room
with carpeting. Results showed that the people in
the beautiful room tend to
give higher marks
to the faces than those in the ugly room did.
Other studies show that students do
better on
tests taken in comfortable rooms than in ordinary
--looking or ugly rooms.

Passage Three
The water we drink and use
is running short in the world. We all have to
learn how to stop wasting
our limited water.
One of the steps we should take is to find ways of
reusing it. Experiments have
already been done
in this field.
Today in most large cities,
fresh water is used only once, then it runs into
waste system. But it is
possible to pipe the
used water to a purifying factory. (83) There it
can be filtered and treated with
chemicals so
that it can be used again, just as it were fresh
from a spring.
But even if every large city
purified and reused its water, we still would not
have enough. Then we
could turn to the oceans.
All we'd have to do to make use of the seawater on
earth is to get rid of the
salt. (84)This
process is called desalinization, and it is
already in use in many parts of the world.
51.
The way to stop wasting our limited water is
to_______.
A. do experiments with water
B. purify the used water and reuse it
C. use
fresh water once again D. make use of
seawater
52. The following tells us how to
reuse the used water. Which is the right order of
the passage?

C. to pipe it to the users→to have the
used water filtered→to pipe the used water to be
purified in
a factory→to put chemicals in it
D. to pipe the used water to be purified in a
factory→to have the used Water filtered→to put

A. How to Reuse Water
B. Two Solutions to
the Problem of Water Shortage
C. Stop Wasting
Our Limited Water
D. How to Make Use of
Seawater
Passage Four
Some people hate everything
that is modern. They cannot imagine how anyone can
really like
modern music; they find it hard to
accept the new fashions in clothing; they think
that all modern
paintings are ugly; and they
seldom have a good word for the new buildings that
are being built
everywhere in the world. Such
people look for perfection in everything, and they
take their standards
of perfection from the
past. They are usually impatient with anyone who
is brave enough to
experiment with new
materials or to express himself or the age in
original ways. It is, of course, true
that
many artists do not succeed in their work and
instead produce works that can only be considered
as failures. If the work of art is a painting,
the artist's failure concerns himself alone, but
if it is a
building, his failure concerns
others too, because it may damage the beauty of
the whole place. This
does sometimes happen,
but it is completely untrue to say, as some people
do, that modern
architecture is nothing.
(85)We can't judge every modern building by the
standards of the ancient time, even though we
admire the ancient buildings. Technologically,
the modern buildings are more advanced. The modern
architect knows he should learn from the
ancient works, but with his greater resources of
knowledge
and materials, he will never be
content to imitate the past. He is too proud to do
that.

B. it is untrue to say
artists fail in their work

D. it is
true to say only painters fail in their work

building_______.
