Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some 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 write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Questions
41 to 45
are based on the following passage:
Passage One
Population
tends
to
grow
at
an
exponential(
指数的
)rate.
This
means
that
they
progressively
double. As an example of this type of growth rate take one penny and double every day for one
month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cent, but after the fourth week you would
This
helps
explain
why
the
population
has
come
on
“
all
of
a
sudden
”
took
from
he
beginning
of human 1ife to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That
repents(
缓慢进行
) a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930
for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960 only thirty years
and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion which is another billion people in only fifteen
years.
World population is increasing at a rate of 9, 000per hour, 220,000 per day and 80 million
per year.
This
is
not
only
due
to
higher
birth
rate,
but
to
lower
death
rate
as well.
The
number
of
births
has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.
Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are
doubling their population about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of percent a year
or more. The United States is doubling its population about very eighty-seven years, with a
rate of percent per year.
(
81
)
Every time a population doubles, the country involved needs
twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food and medicines to
care
for
its
people.
It
is
easy
to
see
that
this
is
very
difficult
to
achieve
for
the
more
rapidly
growing countries.
41. This passage chiefly discusses
A. the growth of world population.
B. one type of the exponential rate.
C. the population problem of more rapidly growing countries.
D. the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth.
42. According to the passage what helps to explain why the population problem has come on
“all of a sudden”?
A. The penny that doubles itself every day for one month.
B. The time span of at 1east two million years in human history.
C. An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the author.
D. The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week.
have over a million dollars.
43. It took for the world to increase its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.
44. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minute.
B. Lower death rate also contributes to world population growth.
C. The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 years.
D. The United States is usually doubling its population on about every 87 years.
45. When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything
including __.
A. hospitals and medicines
C. food and manpower resources
B. schools and students
D. all of the above
A. 100 years B. 175 years C. 1975 years D. over two million years
Questions
46 to 50
based on the following passage:
Passage Two
Women
are
on
the
whole
more
verbal
than
men.
They
are
good
at
1anguage
and
verbal
reasoning.
while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual- spatial(
视空
)abilities. In fact, along
with aggression these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.
Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people.
They
are
mainly
social
tools.
Visual
and
spatial
abilities
are
good
for
imagining
and
manipulating
objects
and
for
communicating
information
about
them.
Are
these
talents
programmed
into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology(
神
经生理学
), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain males are specialists while
women are generalists.
But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes.
Engineering is both Visual and spatial and
it’s
true that there are relatively few women
engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task
that
involve
visual-spatial
skills.
They
also
do
equally
well
at
programming
a
computer,
which
is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the
objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity.
(
82
)
A
woman
is
more
likely
to
see
her
car,
rifle
or
computer
as
a
useful
tool
but
not
in
itself
fascinating.
46. According to the passage, women are usually good at_____.
A. body language
B. logical reasoning
D. both A and B
D. reconciled
C. tasks demanding for the use of words
A. believed
B. assumed
47. The word
”
in the last sentence of the first paragraph, roughly means_____.
C. received
B. mind and body.
D. imagination and communication.
48. In the author
’
s opinion, visual and spatial abilities are good for______.
A.
achieving one’s objects.
C. programming talents into the brain.
A. imagining and handling objects.
B. providing a computer with a set of instructions
C. shooting a gun and driving an automobile
D. planning and making things as an engineer does
50. Why do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves?
A. Because they have no visual-spatial skills.
B. Because they are only good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning.
C. Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspects.
D. Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles, computers, etc.
Questions
51 to 55
are based on the following passage:
Passage Three
The
US.
government
has
recently
helped
people
learn
more
about
the
dangers
of
earthquakes
by
publishing
a
map.
This
map
shows
the
chances
of
an
earthquake
in
each
part
of
the
country.
(
83
)
The
areas
of
the
map
where
earthquakes
are
most
likely
to
occur
are
called
earthquake
“
belt
”
.
The
government
is,
spending
a
great
deal
money
and
is
working
hard
to
help
discover
the
answer
to
these
two
questions:
l.
Can
we
predict
earthquake?
2.
Can
we
control
earthquakes?
49. All the following tasks involve visual- spatial abilities EXCEPT____.
To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active
fault(
断层
)systems in the country such as the San Andreas fault in California, a fault is
break between two sections of the earth
’s
surface. These breaks between sections are the
place where earthquake occurs. Scientists look at the faults for changes that might show
that an earthquake was about to occurs. But it will probably be many years before we can
predict earthquakes accurately. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.
Nevertheless,
there
have
been
some
interesting
developments
in
the
field
of
controlling
earthquakes.
The
most
interesting
development
concerns
the
Rocky
Mountain
Arsenal
earthquakes.
Here
water
was
put
into
a
layer
of
rocks
4000
meters
below
surface
of
the
ground.
Shortly
after
this
injection
of
water,
there
were
a
small
number
of
earthquakes.
Scientists
have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other.
When
the
water
“
oiled
”
the
fault,
the
fault
became
slippery
and
the
energy
of
an
earthquake
was released. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They
have
realized
that there
is a
connection between
injection of the water and the
earthquake
activity. They have suggested
that might be possible to use this
knowledge
to prevent
very
big
destructive
earthquakes,
that
is,
scientists
could
inject
some
kind
of
fluid
like
water
into faults and change one big earthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes.
51. Earthquake belts are .
A. maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occur
B. zones with a high probability of earthquakes
C. breaks between two sections of the earth
’
s surface
D. the two layers of earth along a fault
52. The San Andreas
’
fault is .
A. an active fault system
B. a place where earthquakes have been predicted accurately
C. a place where earthquake have been controlled
D. the location of the Rocky Mountain
53. What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal
?
A. They occur at bout 4000 meters below ground level
B. The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurring.
C. They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.
D.
Harmful
earthquakes
can
be
possibly
prevented
by
causing
small
harmless
earthquake.
54. What can be said about the experiments at Rocky Mountain Arsenal?
A. They have no practical value in earthquake prevention.
B. They may have practical value in earthquake prevention.
C. They are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.
D.
he
article
does
not
say
anything
about
their
practical
value
in
earthquake
prevention.
55. What is the most appropriate title for the passage?
A. Dangers of Earthquake
B. Earthquake Belts and Prediction
C. Earthquake Prediction and Control
D. Earthquake Engineering in California
Questions
56 to 60
are based on the following passage:
Passage Four
Sporting
activities
are
essentially
modified
forms
of
hunting
behavior.
Viewed
biologically,
the modern footballer is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned
into a harmless football and his prey into a goalmouth. If his aim is accurate and he scores
a goal, he enjoys the hunter
’
s triumph of killing his prey.
To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look back at our
forefathers. They
spent
over
a
million
years
evolving(
进化
)
as
Cooperative
hunters.
Their
very
survival depended on success in the hunting field.
(
84
)
Under this pressure their whole way
of
life,
even
their
bodies,
became
greatly
changed
:
They
became
chasers,
runners,
jumpers,
aimers,
throwers and prey killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attack.
Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting the food,
they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life was put
to
a
new
use
——
that
of
controlling
and
domesticating
(
驯养
)
their
prey.
The
hunt
became
suddenly
out
of
date.
The
food
was
there
on
the farms,
awaiting
their
needs.
The
risks
and
uncertainties
of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.
(85)The
skills
and
thirst
for
hunting
remained,
however,
and
demanded
new
outlets.
Hunting
for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting
sequences(
后果
), but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the
sportsmen
set
off
to
test
their
skill
against
prey
that
was
no
longer
essential
to
their
survival.
To
be
sure,
the
kill
may
have
been
eaten,
but
there
were
other
purposes,
much
simpler
of
obtaining
a meaty meal.
56. What is the main idea of the passage?
A.
Hunting is very important in human civilization.
B.
Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern society.
C.
It’s hunting that provides human beings with food.
D.
The importance of sporting activities in modern society.
57. According to the author, sporting activities .
A. are essential to the survival
B. have actually developed from hunting
C. evolve as biological development
D. are football games
58. For over a million years. our forefathers were basically .
A. skillful sportsmen
C. runners and jumpers
A. sports activities
B. successful farmers
D. cooperating hunters
C. farmers
D. prey killing
59. The word
“
operation (Par. 4)refers to .
B. hunting
60. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The goalmouth is equal to the weapon in hunting.
B. Without hunting our forefathers couldn
’
t live.
C. After our forefathers became farmers they still hunted for food.
D. Farmers are satisfied with stable lives and they didn
’
t have enthusiasm for hunting
any more

As a developing country, China is confronted with the dual task of developing the economy
and
protecting
the
environment.
Preceding
from
its
national
conditions,
China
has
in
the
process
of promoting its overall modernization program made environmental protection one of its basic
policies regarded the realization of sustained economic development as an important strategy
and
meanwhile
carried

throughout
the

campaigns
for

prevention
and
treatment as well as ecological environmental protection.
Over the 18 years since its adoption of reform and opening policy, China's gross national
product
has
achieved
a
sustained
average
annual
growth
of
around10
percent.
While
its
environment
has basically ceased from deteriorating, the results of our work
have shown that China’s
endeavor in striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection has
been effective.
As a member of the international community, while making great efforts to protect its own
environment. China has taken an active part in international environmental protection affairs
to promote international cooperation in environmental protection and earnestly fulfilled her
international
obligations.
All
these
have
given
full
expression
to
the
sincerity
and
determination of the Chinese government and people to protect the global environment.
Mankind still faces a great many difficulties in solving the problems of the environment
and development and there is a grand task to perform and a long way to go. China will do as
it
did
in
the
past
to
cooperate
with
other
countries of
the
world
and
strive
for

Modern Life in the Modern World
Many people insist that now we live in the most wonderful and promising era in history ,
as more and more machines take over our hard work, making our societies more efficient and our
lives more comfortable. For instance, telephone and cell phone become so popular that you can
anywhere if you want. Household electrical appliances free us from housework so that we can
enjoy more leisure time. Modern transportation makes the world so small that you can travel
by air from one city to another in a few hours which could take several days by trains.
In spite the above benefits we gained from the development of science and technology,
however, everyone now worries about the pressure modern life. As more and more machines are
applied
in
our
daily
life,
life
pace
keeps
getting
faster
and
the
world
is
getting
too
complex.
As we pursue more and more material things such as luxury cars, personal computers, big houses
etc. our financial pressures are growing. As job markets become shrinking and job competition
becomes
intense,
everyone
worries
about
losing
his
job.
What
’
s
more,
many
people
are
now
faced
with
the
threat
of
terrorists
or
live
in
constant
fear
because
of
the
unfair
wealth
distribution
between the rich and the poor.
Since
human
beings
are
largely
a
pleasure
seeking
and
pain-avoiding
creature,
we
never
stop
inventing things to release us from hard labor. And we also try our best to prove that we are
the masters of
our surrounding .That
’
s why our civilization
keeps
going forward and every new
generation
benefits
from
the
efforts
made
by
previous
one.
As
high
tech
develops
at
a
surprisingly
high speed, we will gain more instead of suffering more and our future bright and promising.

B,
C

D

are based on the following passage:
Passage One
A
man
once
said
how
useless
it
was
to
put
advertisements
in
the
newspapers.
“
Last
week,
”
he said, my umbrella was stolen from a London church. As it was a present, I spent twice its
worth in advertising, but didn
’
t get it back.
“
How did you write your advertisement?
”
asked one of the listeners, a merchant.
“
Here it is,
”
said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper, The
other
man
took
it
and
read,
“
Lost
from
the
City
Church
last
Sunday
evening,
a
black
silk
umbrella.
The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street.
”
“
Now,
”
said the merchant
, “I
often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the
way
in
which
an
advertisement
is
expressed
is
of
extreme
importance.
Let
us
try
for
your
umbrella
again, and if it fails,
I’
ll buy you a new one.
”
The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote:
“
If the man who was
seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening does
n’
t wish to get into
trouble, he will return the umbrella to Broad Street. He is well known.
”
This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when the
opened
the
front
door.
(81)
In
the
doorway
lay
at
least
twelve
umbrellas
of
all
sizes
and
colors
that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number. Many of them had notes fastened to

Questions
46 to 50
based on the following passage:
Passage Two
The great advance in rocker theory 40 years ago shows that liquid-fuel rockets were far
superior
in
every
respect
to
the
skyrocket
with
its
weak
solid
fuel.
However,
during
the
decade,
large solid- fuel rockets with solid fuels about as powerful as liquid fuels have made their
appearance, and it is a favorite layman
’
s question to inquire which one is
“
better
”
. The
question
is
meaningless.
One
might
as
well
ask
whether
a
gasoline
or
a
diesel
engine
is
“
better
”
.
It all depends on the purpose, a liquid-fuel rocket is complicated, but has the advantage that
it can be controlled beautifully. The burning of the rocket engine can be stopped completely:
it can be reignited when desired. In addition, the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the
speed
of
the
fuel
pumps.
A
solid-fuel
rocket,
on
the
other
hand,
is
rather
simple
in
construction,
though hard to build when a really at very short notice. A liquid-fuel rocket has to be fueled
first
and
cannot
be
held
in
readiness
for
very
long
after
it
has
been
fueled.
(82)However,
once
a solid-fuel rocket has been ignited, it will keep burning. It cannot be stopped and reignited
whenever
desired
and
its
thrust
cannot
be
varied.
Because
a
solid-fuel
rocket
can
be
kept
ready
for a long time, most military employ solid fuels, but manned space-flight needs the fine
adjustments
that
can
only
be
provided
by
liquid
fuels.
It
may
be
added
that
a
liquid-fuel
rocket
is
an
expensive
device;
a
large
solid-fuel
rocket
is,
by
comparison,
cheap. But
the
solid
fuel,
pound per pound, costs about 10 times as much as the liquid fuel. So you have, on the one hand,
an expensive rocket with a cheap fuel and on the other hand a comparatively cheap rocket with
an expensive fuel.
46.
The
author
feels
that
a
comparison
of
liquid- fuel
and
solid-fuel
rockets
shows
that
_______.
A. neither type is very economical B. the liquid-fuel rocket is best
C. each type has certain advantages D. the solid-fuel rocket is best.
47. The most important consideration for manned space flight is that the rocket be_____.
A. inexpensive to construct B. capable of lifting heavy space shift into orbit
C. easily controlled D. inexpensive to operate
48. Solid-fuel rockets are expensive to operate because of their_______.
A. size B. fuel C. construction D. complicated engines
49. Which of the following statements is not characteristic of liquid-fuel rockets?
A. the fuel is cheap B. they are cheap to build.
C. they can be stopped and reignited. D. they must be used soon after fueling.
50. The author tells us that_______.
A. whether a liquid-fuel or a solid-fuel rocket is better depends on the purpose
B. neither type is superior
C. forty years ago, large solid-fuel rockets with solid-fuel as powerful as liquid fuels
were made
D. the thrust can be made to vary by adjusting the direction of the pump
Questions
51 to 55
are based on the following passage:
Passage Three
As a medium of exchange, money permits the separation of exchange into the two distinct
acts
of
buying
and
selling.
Hence
producers
who
know
they
will
be
paid
in
money,
can
concentrate
on finding the most suitable outlet for their goods, while buyers who will pay in money, can
concentrate
on
finding
the
cheapest
market
for
the
wings
they
wish
to
purchase.
(83)
Specialization is encouraged, because people whose output is not a complete product but only
a part of one can be paid an amount equivalent to their share of the product.
Another advantage of money is that it is a measure of value. In a barter economy it would
be necessary to determine how many plates were worth one hundred weight of cotton, or how many
pens should be exchanged for a ton of coal. (84) The process of establishing relative values
would have to be undertaken for every act of exchange, according to what products were being
offered against one another, and according to the two parties
’
desires and preferences.
Thirdly, money acts as store of wealth. It is difficult to imagine saving under a barter
system. No one engaged on only one stage in the manufacture of a product could save part of
his output, since he would be producing nothing complete. Most products deteriorate fairly
rapidly,
either
physically
or
in
value,
as
a
result
of
long
storage;
even
if
storage
were
possible,
the
practice
of
storing
products
for
years
on
end
would
involve
obvious
disadvantages.
If
wealth
could not be saved, or only with great difficulty, future needs could not be provided.
51. Using money as a medium of exchange means that_____.
A. you have to sell something in order to buy something
B. you have to buy something in order to sell something
C. you don
’
t have to buy something in order to sell something
D. the seller and the purchaser are the same person
52. Specialization is encouraged because_______.
A. people can use their money to buy whatever they want
B. people get paid according to their share of the product.
C. people pay great attention to the manufacture of a product
D. people cannot use their money to buy whatever they want
53. A barter economy is one in which _______.
A. value is decided by weight
B. value is decided by number
C. money is used and goods are not exchanged
D. goods are exchanged and money is not used
54. If one had to save products instead of money, __________.
A. this would need years of practice B. coal, for example, would lose its value
C. they could not be stored for years on end D. many products would lose their value
55. How many advantages of money are mentioned in this passage?
A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five
Questions
56 to 60
are based on the following passage:
Passage Four
There are two common explanations for origin of tipping.
The Oxford English Dictionary
says tip was seventeenth-
century underworld slang for “give”———as in “Tip me your money
or
your
life.”
(85)
Opponents
of
tipping
will
probably
prefer
this
explanation,
since
it
suggests
the practice as originally a form of robbery. A less reputable, but nonetheless charming
explanation is that in Renaissance(
文艺复兴
) coffeehouses, boxes were set near the door, into
which customers could drop money: These boxes, accord
ing to the story, bore the legend “To
Insure Promptitude,” which was ultimately shortened to TIP. Whether it was a serving woman
or a boss with his or her eye on depressing wages who first thought up the idea, the story does
not say.
Tipping became common in England by the middle of the eighteenth century. Because it is
ill-suited to a country without an established servant class, it did not catch on in America
until after the Civil War, when former slaveholders suddenly found themselves having to pay
the
help
and
when
new-rich
industrialists
adopted
the
European
fashion.
By
the
turn
of
the
century,
we had made the custom our own, and the American “big tipper” was on his way.
Today, although the lines between bribery(
贿赂
) and thanks for services remain as vague
as
ever,
tipping
has
become
universal,
not
least
because,
in
an
increasingly
uncertain
economy,
it provides the growing service class with income that is at least as reliable as wages and
that is less subject to tax review. Not surprisingly, government officials as among the few
die-
hards
who
still
question
the
tipping
system.
They
have
a
point
too.
Tippers’
International
Association estimates that . workers get about $$5 billion a year in tips.
56. In the seventeenth century, tip was probably a word used by_____.
A. lawbreakers B. customers C. waitresses D. coffeehouse bosses
57. Tipping did not become popular in . until after the Civil War because______.
A. the country was free of a servant class
B. former slaveholders did not want to pay the help
C. northern industrialists refused to adopt the European fashion
D. tipping was contradictory to the American custom
58. Tipping is universally accepted mainly because_______.
A. it is an easy way to make money
B. it ensures people a good and prompt service
C. it enables the service class to be free from taxes
D. it supplies the service class with a sort of reliable income
59.
Which
of
the
following
words
can
best
describe
the
government
officials’
attitudes
towards
the tipping system?
A. Positive. B. Negative. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent.
60. The passage is about_______.
A. the origin of tipping B. the practice of tipping in
C. the popularity of tipping D. the shaping of the tipping system

He
believes
that
language
is
something
alive,
which
relates/
is
relevant
to
our
daily
life
closely.
According
to
him,
he
was
lucky
in
the
sense
that
he
could
maintain
his
grasp
of
English
and
Chinese
with
constant
use
of
the
languages
in
his
work
–
first
as
a
court
interpreter
and now as the supervisor in the translation section.
Even when he was a teacher of English, he kept in touch with Chinese by translating
articles from English magazines into Chinese for the local
press. He said:
“
Internet
and motivation are most important in learning and mastering a language.
”
He compares
language learning to jogging. It is a laborious exercise, but what keeps the jogger
running
is
an
interest
and
the
knowledge
of
the
advantages
and
benefits
of
the
exercise.
One must always create the environment and opportunities for language learning. He
suggests watching movies, reading books, and even writing to pen- pals as some of the
ways to get involved in the learning.
“
Because of the limited time we have, reading
short
stories,
or
even
lines of famous quotations of wise
men,
is
good, and
helps make
language learning more interesting,
”
he added.

How to Repay Your Parents
Children
can
’
t
live
happily
and
healthily
without
parents,
because
parents
have
done
a lot during the growth of children. From the necessities such as three meals a day
to school education at different levels, parents
’
love of and devotion to children
are felt everywhere.
As children have become grown-up, they realize how much their parents have done for
them and how important it is to repay their parents; some work so hard to earn large
sums
of
money
to
provide
big
houses
for
their
parents.
Some
are
always
cooking
delicious
food or buying expensive clothes for them; still others arrange for parents to go
traveling
both
home
and
abroad
and
the
like.
Naturally
all
these
would
make
their
parents
happy.
However, as far as I am concerned, what parents need most is simply a call, a talk,
or a dinner together. To tell you the truth, whenever I have spare time, I try to see
them in person, have meals with them, talk with them and share with them my joys and
sorrows, which offers them the greatest happiness. In a word, I think we should repay
our parents with the deep love from the bottom of our hearts as they have done for us.

)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some 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 write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Questions
41 to 45
are based on the following passage:
Passage One
Learning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I
’
d ask whether anyone
in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.
“What
did you learn in that course?
”
I
’
d ask.
“
Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience
…
not to be inhibited (
拘谨;
抑
制
)
…
not to be nervous
…”
Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don
’
t hear much about gr-
ammar
and
vocabulary.
Instead,
you
’
re
taught
how
not
to
be
afraid
or
embarrassed,
how
to
speak
without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking
is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.
It is the same in writing. (81) The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous
inhibi-
tions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person
who’ll
read
what y-
ou wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out
to the person at the other end of the line.
Of
course,
in
public
speaking,
with
the
audience
right
in
front
of
you,
the
problem
is
easier.
You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you
’
re alone. It needs an effort
of your
experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that
effort is
necessary or at least it
’
s necessary
until you
’
ve reached
the
point
when you
quite naturally
and unconsciously
“
talk on paper.
”
41. The main task of a public speech course is to ________.
A.
teach spoken-language experience
B.
teach how to use gestures to assist speech
C.
help the learners overcome nervousness
D.
teach how to control the volume of the speaker
’
s voice
42.
Learning
how
to
write is
similar to learning how to speak in public in
that a
writer
should
___________.
A.
overcome his or her nervousness in the first place
B.
watch his or her grammar and vocabulary
C.
collect a lot of data before writing
D.
take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing
43. In the author
’
s opinion_________.
A.
writing needs more experience and skill than public speaking
B.
both writing and public speaking require effort
C.
writing is imaginative
D.
public speaking is not so natural as writing
44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A.
Not many students feel the need to learn public speaking
B.
Training is necessary before you can speak with script
C.
In public speaking, the audience are more nervous than the speaker
D.
Writing is just like making a public speech on paper
45. This selection is mainly about learning how to _______.
A.
make a public speech
B.
talk on paper
C.
behave properly in public speech
D.
express strong emotion on paper
Questions
46 to 50
based on the following passage:
Passage Two
In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.
(82)Resources
on
land
are
beginning
to
grow less.
The
sea,
however,
still
offers
hope
to
supply
many of man
’
s needs.
The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil a
nd gas
explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron,
nickel and copper and so on exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of
fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental peoples.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm
temperature
of
the
ocean
can
be
used
in
a
way
similar
to
the
steam
in
a
steamship.
Ocean
currents
and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydroelectric power.
Technology
is
enabling
man
to
explore
ever
deeper
under
the
sea.
The
new
undersea
technology
is
providing
divers
with
diving
suits
and
undersea
chambers
that
are
kept
at
sea
level
pressure.
The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year 2000, experts believe
that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely
solved.
46. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Needs of
.
Man B. Sources of
..
Energy
C. Sea Harvest D. Sea Exploring Technology
47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because______.
A.
man cannot travel farther into space
B.
resources on land are running short
C.
it’s a lot of fun diving into the sea
D.
ancient people used to explore the sea
48. Why does the author mention a steamship?
A.
To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.
B.
To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ship.
C.
To argue that man should use steamships more than other means of transportation.
D.
To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.
49. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.
A.
man hasn’t completely developed the riches of the sea
B.
technology for exploring the sea has been solved
C.
planting rice in the sea will be made possible in a short time
D.
in the near future man can live on the ocean floor
50. The word
“
exploit
”
in the last paragraph could best be replaced by________.
A. evaluate B. develop C. gather D. scatter
Questions
51 to 55
are based on the following passage:
Passage Three
Your
passport
is
your
official
identification
as
an
American
citizen.
In
American,
most
people
never
consider
obtaining
a
passport
unless
they
are
planning
a
trip
out
of
the
country.
In
Europe,
where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a pass-
port. A passport is final proof of identity in almost every county in the world.
In 1979 almost 15 million American held passports. Most of these passports were obtained
to
travel
outside
the
country
because,
except
for
a
few
Western
nations,
passports
are
required
to enter every country. And if you travel abroad, you must have a valid passport to return the
country.
When
traveling
abroad,
you
will
need
a
passport
for
identification
when
exchanging
dollars
for francs or marks or other foreign currency. You may also need your passport to use a credit
card, buy an airplane ticket or check into a hotel. As a passport is an official . document,
it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires or war.
Don
’
t
confuse passports and visas. (83)Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its
citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that
country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend
has reversed. They may be obtained from the embassy of the country you wish to visit.
Passport
applications
are
available
at
passport
agency
offices
in
large
cities
like
Boston,
New
York,
or
Chicago.
In
smaller
cities,
applications
are
available
at
post
offices
and
at
federal
courts. To get your first passport, you must submit the application in person, along with a
birth certificate and two pictures.
51. The main purpose of this passage is to___________.
A.
discuss traveling in other countries
B.
distinguish between passports and visas
C.
discuss the financial uses of a passport
D.
provide information about passports
52. Passports are beneficial for___________.
A. exchanging currency
B. using a credit card
C. checking into hotels
D. all of the above
53. We can conclude from the passage that_________.
A.
passports are more important than visas
B.
visas and passports are the same thing
C.
foreign government issue visas instead of passports
D.
visas are required to obtain passports
54. The passage suggests that_________.
A.
Most people don
’
t realize how important passports are
B.
passports aren
’
t important once you are in the country you
’
ve chosen to visit
C.
passports are simple to obtain through the mail
D.
passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country.
55. As used in this passage, the word
“
valid
”
in the second paragraph means__________.
A. foreign
B. legal
C. monetary
D. illegal
Questions
56 to 60
are based on the following passage:
Passage Four
I hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were
so.
At
young age
you ought to be growing away from you parents.
You should
be learning to stand
on your own two feet.
But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are a1l taking the
same way of snowing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out on their
own
,
most of them are clutching at one another
’
s hands for reassurance.
They say they want to dress as they please
,
but all of them wear the same clothes. They set
off
in
new
directions
in
music
,
but
all
of
them
end
up
huddled
round
listening
to
the
same
record.
Their reason for thinking or acting in this and that way is that the crowd is doing it.
(84)It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave
and go his or her own way. These days every teenager can 1earn from the advertisements what
a teenager should have and be. And many of today
’
s parents have come to award high marks for
the popularity of their children. (85)All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who
wants to find his or her own path.
But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen
to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone
else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don
’
t care to share at once
with your classmates. Well
,
go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-will
the people who respect you for who you are. That
’
s the only kind of popularity that really
counts.
56. The author
’
s purpose in writing this passage is to tell _____.
A.
readers how to be popular with people around
B.
teenagers how to learn to decide things for themselves
C.
parents how to control and guide their children
D.
people how to understand and respect each other
57. According to the author, many teenagers think they are brave enough to act on their own,
but, in fact, most of them _____.
A.
have much difficulty understanding each other
B.
lack confidence
C.
dare not cope with problems single-handed
D.
are very much afraid of getting lost
58. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage
?
A.
There is no popularity that really counts.
B.
What
many
parents are
doing is in fact hindering
their
children from finding
their own
paths.
C.
It is not necessarily bad for a teenager to disagree with his or her classmates.
D.
Most
teenagers
claim
that
they
want
to
do
what
they
like
to,
but
they
are
actually
doing
the same.
59. The author thinks of advertisements as _____.
A. convincing
B. influential
C. instructive
D. authoritative
60. During the teenage years, one should learn to _____.
A.
differ from others in as many ways as possible
B.
get into the right season and become popular
C.
find one
’

D.
rebel against parents and the popularity wave

In china, it is relatively usual to ask people their age, but in the west, this question
is generally regarded as impolite. This is particularly true 61 women, and even more 62 if the
inquirer is a man. However, it is 63 to ask children their age, and some adults may not mind
64 either. In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to 65 their age, especially if they
feel they look young 66 their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 67 question
like
“
How old are you?
”
if elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive
a
compliment
on
how
young
they
look,
they
may
easily 68
the

themselves,
and
ask
the

person
to

they
are.
70
such

it
is

acceptable
to
discuss
age normally
expect
to
be
complimented
on
their
youthfulness,
though
rather
than 72
that
they
look
very
old!
73 westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not 74 that they
are not interested to know how old other people are. They may ask 75 for the information, 76
they may try to 77 the topic indirectly. Sometimes discussions about educational 78 and the
number of years of working experience may provide some 79 , but this is not always the 80 .

Directions: In this section, there is a short passage in Chinese. Read it carefully and put
it into English.
端午节
每年农历的五月初五 是中国的一个民间传统节日,叫端午节。在这一天,人们要赛龙舟、吃粽子。
这个节日是为了纪念著名诗 人屈原。
相传两千多年前,楚国诗人屈原因政治改革,屡遭保守势力的诽谤,失去楚王的信任 ,后被放逐。
最终,因国家衰败,理想无法实现,自投汨罗江而死。
据说,老百姓听 到屈原投江自尽,就有人驱舟去打捞,但没有找到。他们担心屈原的遗体会被鱼吃
掉,便将煮熟的米饭撒 到江中。我们今天吃粽子、赛龙舟的习俗就是因此慢慢演变而来。
