Questions 1 to 10 are based
on the same passage or dialog.
The King, the
Servant, and
Some time ago, there lived a
king. This king should have been
contented
with his life, given all the riches he had.
However, this
was not the case! The king was
not content with life at all, and he
spent all
his time wondering why.
One day, the king
woke up earlier than usual to take a leisurely
walk around his palace. He came to a stop when
he heard
someone happily singing away. He
followed the sound until he
discovered where
it was coming from. As it turned out, one of the
servants was singing, and this servant had a
very contented look
on his face. This
attracted the king greatly and he called this man
to
his room. The man entered the king's room
as ordered. The king
asked why he was so
happy. To this the man replied,
Majesty, I am
nothing but a servant, but I make enough of a
living to
keep my wife and children happy. We
don't need anything more
than a roof over our
heads and warm food to fill our stomach. My
wife and children are content with the little
money and food I bring
home. And I am happy
because my family is happy.
Hearing this, the
king let the servant leave and called his personal
assistant to his room. The king told him about
his sadness and
about the happiness of the
servant, hoping that somehow, he would
be able
to explain why a king, who could have anything he
wished
for, was not happy, whereas his
servant, who had so little, was
greatly
contented.
The personal assistant listened
carefully and came to this
conclusion:
made part of the 99 Club.
The 99 Club? And
what exactly is that?
The Assistant replied,
Club is, you will have to do the following:
Place 99 gold coins in a
bag and leave it at
this servant's doorstep. You will then understand
what the 99 Club is.
That very same
evening, the king arranged for 99 gold coins to be
placed in a bag at the servant's doorstep. The
servant was just
stepping out of his house
when he saw the bag. He then took it to a
table and emptied it out so he could count the
coins. Doing so, he
realized that there were
99 coins and he thought it was an odd
文档
number so he counted again, and again
and again, only to come to
the same amountD99
gold coins.
He began to wonder, what could
have happened to that last coin?
He couldn't
imagine that anyone would leave 99 coins. He began
to
search his entire house, looked around his
backyard for hours, not
wanting to lose out on
that one coin. Finally, tired out, he decided
that he was going to have to work harder than
ever to make up for
that one gold coin and
make his entire collection an even 100 gold
coins.
He got up the next morning and
began the day by shouting at his
children and
his wife for letting him sleep too late, though in
fact it
was not their fault. Actually, he had
spent most of the night
imagining ways of
working hard so that he would have enough
money to buy himself that gold coin. He went
to work as usual but
did not feel happy as he
usually did. Instead of singing happily while
he did his work, he did everything very
angrily.
Seeing the man's attitude change so
violently, the king was
confused. He could not
believe that the servant, who until yesterday
had been singing away happy and content with
his life, could have
such a sudden change in
behavior, and when he should have been
happier
after receiving the gold coins.
To this, the
assistant replied,
now officially joined the
99 Club.
a name given to those people who have
a lot but are never
contented. They are not
pleased with what they have, but are angry
because of what they do not have. We have so
much to be thankful
for, and we can live with
very little in our lives, but the minute we
are given something bigger and better, we want
even more! By
wanting more and more we don't
realize the price we pay for it. We
lose sleep
and happiness. Hurting the people around us is
another
price we pay for our growing needs and
desires. That is what
joining the 99 Club is
all about.
Having heard this, the king learned
a lesson about life and decided
that from that
day onwards, he was going to start appreciating
all
the little things in life.

7 Reading Comprehension (Multiple
Choice)
(每小题：1 分)
文档
Directions:
Read the following passages carefully and choose
the best answer from the four choices marked
A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on
the same passage or dialog.
Since the late
1960s a growing number of women have expressed
a strong dissatisfaction with any marriage
arrangement in which the
husband and his
career are the most important considerations in
the marriage. By the end of the 1970s, for
example, considerably
less than half of the
women in the United States still believed that
they would put their husbands and children
ahead of their own
careers.
More and more
American women have come to believe that they
should be equal partners in their marriages.
This stage of marriage,
although still unusual
in most American marriages at present, will
grow most rapidly in the future. In an equal
marriage, the wife gets
a full-time job or
career which has equal importance to her
husband's. The long-standing division of labor
between husband
and wife comes to an end. The
husband is no longer the main
provider of
family income, and the wife no longer has the main
responsibilities for household duties and
raising children. Husband
and wife share all
these duties equally. Power over family decisions
is also shared equally.
The rapid change
in women's attitudes toward marriage in the
1970s reflected the rapid changes in the
larger society. The
Women's Liberation
Movement appeared in the late 1960s,
demanding
an end to all forms of prejudice against females.
An
Equal Rights Amendment (修正案) to the US
Constitution was
proposed which would make any
form of prejudice on the basis of
sex illegal,
and though it has failed to be confirmed, it
continues to
have millions of supporters.
1. Since the late 1960s more women have been
dissatisfied with
the marriage in which
__________________.
A. they are unhappy
B.
they are in a lower position
C. only the
husband earns money
D. the wife only takes
care of the household
2. What is the long-
standing division of labor between husband
文档
and wife in America?
A.
Husband―provider, wife―domestic duties.
B.
Husband and wife share the housework.
C.
Husband and wife have equal responsibility.
D.
Husband plays a higher role than the wife
3.
Which statement is NOT true about the new type of
marriage?
A. Husband and wife share all their
duties equally.
B. Wife can also make the
decisions in the family.
C. Wife earns their
living while husband does the housework.
D.
Husband is also responsible for raising children.
4. Women's attitudes toward marriage involve
____________________.
A. the Women's
Liberation Movement
B. forbidding any form of
prejudice against women
C. the changing roles
of husband and wife in the marriage
D. all of
the above
5. Which of the following describes
the general idea for this
passage?
A. The
Changing Patterns of Americans' Marriage.
B.
An Ideal Marriage.
C. The Women's Liberation
Movement.
D. The need for Equal Rights between
Husband and Wife.
Questions 6 to 10 are based
on the same passage or dialog.
文档
If the population of the Earth goes on
increasing at its present rate,
there will
eventually not be enough resources left to support
life on
the planet. One possible solution to
the problem has recently been
suggested by an
American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan: he
believes that before the Earth's resources are
completely used up it
will be possible to
change the atmosphere (大气圈) of Venus (金星)
and
so create a new world almost as large as the Earth
itself. The
difficulty is that Venus is much
hotter than the Earth and has only a
tiny
amount of water.
Sagan suggests that algae
(藻类), plant life that can live in
extremely
hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time
produce
oxygen, should be produced in
conditions similar to those on
Venus. The
algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceships
will
then fly to Venus and fire the rockets
into the atmosphere. In a fairly
short time,
the algae will break down the gasses in the
atmosphere
and change them into oxygen that
people can breathe. But before
man can set
foot on Venus, it will be necessary for the oxygen
to
produce rain to cool the planet, so that
after a few years conditions
like those on
Earth will be produced.
If the experiments
are successful, life will become possible there
but it will not be pleasant at first. When
they go to Venus, the first
citizens will have
to take plenty of water with them and get used to
days and nights lasting 60 Earth days. But
there will also be some
advantages. They will
live longer because their hearts will suffer
less stress than on Earth.
6. Men may
eventually move to Venus because
______________________.
A. there are many
people on the Earth
B. we have used too much
oil and water
C. the limited resources can't
support life on the Earth
D. people take up
too much space
7. Now it is difficult for us
to move to Venus because
______________________.
A. it is too hot
for men to land on
文档
B. there
is no water there
C. we cannot change the
environment there
D. it's a long distance for
us to go there
8. The algae play a very
important role in the possible solution
because _________________________.
A. they
can be produced easily on the Earth
B. there
are a lot of them on Venus
C. they can be
easily carried to Venus
D. they can live in
hot and cold conditions and produce
oxygen
The first citizens will find life on Venus not
pleasant because
___________.
A. their
hearts will suffer more stress
9.
B. their
days and nights will last quite long
C. there
are not any houses there
D. there is too much
water there
10. One of the advantages the
first citizens on Venus will enjoy is
___________.
A. they will have much more
space
B. they won't suffer from heart disease
C. their life will last longer
D. they
will have better living conditions

Questions 1 to 10 are based
on the same passage or dialog.
The King, the
Servant, and
Some time ago, there lived a
king. This king should have been
contented
with his life, given all the riches he had.
However, this
was not the case! The king was
not content with life at all, and he
spent all
his time wondering why.
One day, the king
woke up earlier than usual to take a leisurely
walk around his palace. He came to a stop when
he heard
someone happily singing away. He
followed the sound until he
discovered where
it was coming from. As it turned out, one of the
servants was singing, and this servant had a
very contented look
on his face. This
attracted the king greatly and he called this man
to
his room. The man entered the king's room
as ordered. The king
asked why he was so
happy. To this the man replied,
Majesty, I am
nothing but a servant, but I make enough of a
living to
keep my wife and children happy. We
don't need anything more
than a roof over our
heads and warm food to fill our stomach. My
wife and children are content with the little
money and food I bring
home. And I am happy
because my family is happy.
Hearing this, the
king let the servant leave and called his personal
assistant to his room. The king told him about
his sadness and
about the happiness of the
servant, hoping that somehow, he would
be able
to explain why a king, who could have anything he
wished
for, was not happy, whereas his
servant, who had so little, was
greatly
contented.
The personal assistant listened
carefully and came to this
conclusion:
made part of the 99 Club.
The 99 Club? And
what exactly is that?
The Assistant replied,
Club is, you will have to do the following:
Place 99 gold coins in a
bag and leave it at
this servant's doorstep. You will then understand
what the 99 Club is.
That very same
evening, the king arranged for 99 gold coins to be
placed in a bag at the servant's doorstep. The
servant was just
stepping out of his house
when he saw the bag. He then took it to a
table and emptied it out so he could count the
coins. Doing so, he
realized that there were
99 coins and he thought it was an odd
文档
number so he counted again, and again
and again, only to come to
the same amountD99
gold coins.
He began to wonder, what could
have happened to that last coin?
He couldn't
imagine that anyone would leave 99 coins. He began
to
search his entire house, looked around his
backyard for hours, not
wanting to lose out on
that one coin. Finally, tired out, he decided
that he was going to have to work harder than
ever to make up for
that one gold coin and
make his entire collection an even 100 gold
coins.
He got up the next morning and
began the day by shouting at his
children and
his wife for letting him sleep too late, though in
fact it
was not their fault. Actually, he had
spent most of the night
imagining ways of
working hard so that he would have enough
money to buy himself that gold coin. He went
to work as usual but
did not feel happy as he
usually did. Instead of singing happily while
he did his work, he did everything very
angrily.
Seeing the man's attitude change so
violently, the king was
confused. He could not
believe that the servant, who until yesterday
had been singing away happy and content with
his life, could have
such a sudden change in
behavior, and when he should have been
happier
after receiving the gold coins.
To this, the
assistant replied,
now officially joined the
99 Club.
a name given to those people who have
a lot but are never
contented. They are not
pleased with what they have, but are angry
because of what they do not have. We have so
much to be thankful
for, and we can live with
very little in our lives, but the minute we
are given something bigger and better, we want
even more! By
wanting more and more we don't
realize the price we pay for it. We
lose sleep
and happiness. Hurting the people around us is
another
price we pay for our growing needs and
desires. That is what
joining the 99 Club is
all about.
Having heard this, the king learned
a lesson about life and decided
that from that
day onwards, he was going to start appreciating
all
the little things in life.

7 Reading Comprehension (Multiple
Choice)

文档
Directions:
Read the following passages carefully and choose
the best answer from the four choices marked
A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on
the same passage or dialog.
Since the late
1960s a growing number of women have expressed
a strong dissatisfaction with any marriage
arrangement in which the
husband and his
career are the most important considerations in
the marriage. By the end of the 1970s, for
example, considerably
less than half of the
women in the United States still believed that
they would put their husbands and children
ahead of their own
careers.
More and more
American women have come to believe that they
should be equal partners in their marriages.
This stage of marriage,
although still unusual
in most American marriages at present, will
grow most rapidly in the future. In an equal
marriage, the wife gets
a full-time job or
career which has equal importance to her
husband's. The long-standing division of labor
between husband
and wife comes to an end. The
husband is no longer the main
provider of
family income, and the wife no longer has the main
responsibilities for household duties and
raising children. Husband
and wife share all
these duties equally. Power over family decisions
is also shared equally.
The rapid change
in women's attitudes toward marriage in the
1970s reflected the rapid changes in the
larger society. The
Women's Liberation
Movement appeared in the late 1960s,
demanding
an end to all forms of prejudice against females.
An
Equal Rights Amendment (修正案) to the US
Constitution was
proposed which would make any
form of prejudice on the basis of
sex illegal,
and though it has failed to be confirmed, it
continues to
have millions of supporters.
1. Since the late 1960s more women have been
dissatisfied with
the marriage in which
__________________.
A. they are unhappy
B.
they are in a lower position
C. only the
husband earns money
D. the wife only takes
care of the household
2. What is the long-
standing division of labor between husband
文档
and wife in America?
A.
Husband―provider, wife―domestic duties.
B.
Husband and wife share the housework.
C.
Husband and wife have equal responsibility.
D.
Husband plays a higher role than the wife
3.
Which statement is NOT true about the new type of
marriage?
A. Husband and wife share all their
duties equally.
B. Wife can also make the
decisions in the family.
C. Wife earns their
living while husband does the housework.
D.
Husband is also responsible for raising children.
4. Women's attitudes toward marriage involve
____________________.
A. the Women's
Liberation Movement
B. forbidding any form of
prejudice against women
C. the changing roles
of husband and wife in the marriage
D. all of
the above
5. Which of the following describes
the general idea for this
passage?
A. The
Changing Patterns of Americans' Marriage.
B.
An Ideal Marriage.
C. The Women's Liberation
Movement.
D. The need for Equal Rights between
Husband and Wife.
Questions 6 to 10 are based
on the same passage or dialog.
文档
If the population of the Earth goes on
increasing at its present rate,
there will
eventually not be enough resources left to support
life on
the planet. One possible solution to
the problem has recently been
suggested by an
American scientist, Professor Carl Sagan: he
believes that before the Earth's resources are
completely used up it
will be possible to
change the atmosphere (大气圈) of Venus (金星)
and
so create a new world almost as large as the Earth
itself. The
difficulty is that Venus is much
hotter than the Earth and has only a
tiny
amount of water.
Sagan suggests that algae
(藻类), plant life that can live in
extremely
hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time
produce
oxygen, should be produced in
conditions similar to those on
Venus. The
algae will be placed in small rockets. Spaceships
will
then fly to Venus and fire the rockets
into the atmosphere. In a fairly
short time,
the algae will break down the gasses in the
atmosphere
and change them into oxygen that
people can breathe. But before
man can set
foot on Venus, it will be necessary for the oxygen
to
produce rain to cool the planet, so that
after a few years conditions
like those on
Earth will be produced.
If the experiments
are successful, life will become possible there
but it will not be pleasant at first. When
they go to Venus, the first
citizens will have
to take plenty of water with them and get used to
days and nights lasting 60 Earth days. But
there will also be some
advantages. They will
live longer because their hearts will suffer
less stress than on Earth.
6. Men may
eventually move to Venus because
______________________.
A. there are many
people on the Earth
B. we have used too much
oil and water
C. the limited resources can't
support life on the Earth
D. people take up
too much space
7. Now it is difficult for us
to move to Venus because
______________________.
A. it is too hot
for men to land on
文档
B. there
is no water there
C. we cannot change the
environment there
D. it's a long distance for
us to go there
8. The algae play a very
important role in the possible solution
because _________________________.
A. they
can be produced easily on the Earth
B. there
are a lot of them on Venus
C. they can be
easily carried to Venus
D. they can live in
hot and cold conditions and produce
oxygen
The first citizens will find life on Venus not
pleasant because
___________.
A. their
hearts will suffer more stress
9.
B. their
days and nights will last quite long
C. there
are not any houses there
D. there is too much
water there
10. One of the advantages the
first citizens on Venus will enjoy is
___________.
A. they will have much more
space
B. they won't suffer from heart disease
C. their life will last longer
D. they
will have better living conditions
