II. Reading Comprehension
Passage 1
Pigeons have been used as messengers for 500 years, because of their special ability to find home. The mystery of the
homing
pigeon
is
on
how
it
navigates
and
how
it
finds
home.
We
now
know
that
there
are
two
ways
that
pigeons
tell
directions. First, they use the sun. Just getting rough directions from the sun is easy. However, getting accurate directions from
the sun takes more care. To tell direction accurately from the sun, one needs to know the exact time.
All plants and animals seem to have built-in clocks. Usually these biological clocks are not quite exact in measuring time.
However, they work pretty well, because they are “reset” every day, maybe when the sun gets up.
Do pigeons use their biological clocks to help them find direction from the sun? We can experiment to find out. We can keep
pigeons in a room lighted only by lamps. And we can time the lighting to make their artificial “days” start at some different
time from the real outside day. After a while we have shifted their clocks. Now we take them far away from home and let them
go on a sunny day. Most of them start out as if they know just which way to go, but choose a wrong direction. They have
picked a direction that would be correct for the position of the sun and the time of day according to their shifted clocks.
The above experiment shows that homing pigeons can tell directions by the sun. What happens when the sky is darkly
overcast by clouds and no one can see where the sun is? The pigeons still find their way home. So it seems that pigeons also
have some extra sense of direction from the earth’s magnetic field when they cannot see the sun.
1. Pigeons have been used as messengers, for they have special ability ______B_______.
A. to send letters
B. to find home
D. to lead the way for people
B. how they find home
D. how they take care of children
B. the sun sets
D. the moon sets
B. in a correct direction
D. in a circle
B. sensitive hearing
D. brain waves
C. to carry food for men
A. how they find food
C. how they take a letter
A. the sun rises
C. the moon rises
2. The secret of the homing pigeons is ________B_____.
3. All plants and animals reset their biological clocks when ________A______.
4. The experiment tells us that the pigeons fly ____C__ because of the shifted biological clocks.
A. in a wrong direction
C. in all directions
A. sharp eyes
Passage 2
The speaker, a teacher from a community college, addressed a sympathetic audience. Heads nodded in agreement when
5. Pigeons have ___C
___ to tell the direction when it is cloudy by using the earth’s magnetic field.
C. sense of direction
he said,
graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how this
grade 9 level had been established.
My topic is not standards nor its decline (
降低
). What the speaker was really saying is that he is no longer young; he has
been teaching for sixteen years, and is able to think and speak like a mature adult.
My point is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following it is inevitable. It is also
human nature to look for the reasons for our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth
century, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language deficiencies (
缺陷
). But since then, English teachers have
been under constant attack.
The complainers think they have hit upon an original idea. As their own command of the language improves, they notice
that young people do not have this same ability. Unaware that their own ability has developed through the years, they assume
the new generation of young people must be hopeless in this respect. To the eyes and ears of sensitive adults the language of
the young always seems inadequate.

.
Since this concern about the decline and fall of the English language is not perceived as a generational phenomenon but
rather as something new and peculiar to today's young people, it naturally follows that today's English teachers cannot be
doing their jobs. Otherwise, young people would not commit offenses against the language.
6. The speaker the author mentioned in the passage believed that __D___.
A. the language of the younger generation is usually inferior to that of the older generation
B. the students had a poor command of English because they didn't work hard enough
C. he was an excellent language teacher because he had been teaching English for sixteen years
D. English teachers should be held responsible for the students' poor command of English
7. In the author's opinion, the speaker ___B___.
A. gave a correct judgment of the English level of the students
B. had exaggerated the language problems of the students
C. was right in saying that English teachers were not doing their jobs
D. could think and speak intelligently
8. The author's attitude towards the speaker's remarks is ___C___.
A. neutral
B. positive
C. critical
D. compromising
9. It can be concluded from the passage that ___D___.
A. it is justifiable to include English as a school subject
B. the author disagrees with the speaker over the stadard of English at Grade 9 level
C. English language teaching is by no means an easy job
D. Language improvement needs time and effort
10. In the passage the author argues that ___A___.
A. it is unfair to blame the English teachers for the language deficiencies of the students
B. young people would not commit offences against the language if the teachers did their jobs properly
C. to eliminate language deficiencies one must have sensitive eyes and ears
D. to improve the standard of English requires the effort of several generations
Passage 3
Is there a “success personality”—
some winning combination of qualities that leads almost inevitably to achievement?
If so, exactly what is that secret success formula, and can anyone cultivate it?
At
the
Gallup
Organization
we
recently
focused
in
depth
on
success,
probing
the
attitudes
and
qualities
of
1
500
prominent people selected at random from Who’s Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur
regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is, common sense.
Common
sense
is
the
most
prevailing
quality
possessed
by
our
respondents(
回答者
).
Seventy- nine
percent
award
themselves a top score in this category. And 61 percent say that common sense was very important in contributing to their
success.
To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has
to sweep aside extraneous ideas and get right to the core of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way:
“
The key ability for success is simplifying. In conducting meetings and dealing with industry, reducing a complex problem to
the simplest terms is highly important.”
Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? Th
e oil man’s answer is that
common sense can definitely be developed. He attributes his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase
your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their
—
and your own
—
mistakes.
Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence,
the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands
out. If yo
u cultivate these qualities, you’ll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in
Who’s Who
someday.
11. It can be known from the passage that
Who’s Who
___C___.
可编辑
.
A. is a very useful book telling us how to succeed
B. is a book providing us with the information about the family life of some famous people
C. is a book providing us with the names and brief biographies of the top successful people
D. is a book from which we can find out the names of different peoples in the world
12. According to the author, common sense____B__.
A. is something that common people like best
B. is something that enables one to form correct opinions
C. is a popular quality a person is born with
D. is a quality that is possessed by common people
13. The word
“extraneous” in Par
agraph 4 most probably means__D____.
A. right
A. Intelligence.
B. extraordinary
B. Modesty.
C. clear
D. not related
D. Good luck.
14. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor for success?
B
C. Creativity.
15. The passage is mainly concerned with___D___.
A. organizational ability and good work habits
B. the way to obtain big profits and achieve fame and success
C. knowledge and interest which are primary to success
D. what successful people have in common
Passage 4
Baekeland and Hartmann report that the
“
short sleepers
”
had been more or less average in their sleep needs until the
men were in their teens. But at about age 15 or so, the men voluntarily began cutting down their nightly sleep time because of
pressures
from
school,
work,
and
other
activities.
These
men
tended
to
view
their
nightly
periods
of
unconsciousness
as
bothersome interruptions in their daily routines.
In general, these
“
short sleeps
”
appeared ambitious, active, energetic, cheerful, conformist(
不动摇
) in their opinions,
and very sure about their career choices. They often held several jobs at once, or workers full-or part-time while going to
school. And m
any of them had a strong urge to appear “normal” or “acceptable” to their friends and associates.
When
asked
to
recall
their
dreams,
the
“
short
sleepers
”
did
poorly.
More
than
this,
they
seemed
to
prefer
not
remembering. In similar fashion, their usual way of dealing with psychological problems was to deny that the problem existed,
and then to keep busy in the hope that the trouble would go away.
The sleep patterns of the
“
short sleepers
”
were similar to, but less extreme than, sleep patterns shown by many mental
patients categorized as manic(
疯人
).
The
“
long
sleepers
”
were
quite
different
indeed.
Baekeland
and
Hartmann
report
that
these
young
men
had
been
lengthy sleeps since childhood. They seemed to enjoy their sleep, protected it, and were quite concerned when they were
occasionally deprived of their desired 9 hours of nightly bed rest. They tended to recall their dreams much better than did the
“short sleepers.”
Many
of
the
“
long
sleepers
”
were
shy,
anxious,
introverted
(
内向
),
inhibited
(
压抑
),
passive,
mildly
depressed,
and
unsure
of
themselves
(particularly
in
social
situations).
Several
openly
states
that
sleep
was
an
escape
from
their
daily
problems.
16. According to the report,___D___.
A. many short sleepers need less sleep by nature
B. many short sleepers are obliged to reduce their nightly sleep time because they are busy with their work
C. long sleepers sleep a longer period of time during the day
D. many long sleepers preserve their sleeping habit formed during their childhood
17. Many
“
short sleepers
”
are likely to hold the view that __C___.
A. sleep is a withdrawal from the reality
B. sleep interferes with their sound judgement
可编辑
.
C. sleep is the least expensive item on their routine program
D. sleep is the best way to deal with psychological troubles
18. It is stated in the third paragraph that short sleepers __B___.
A. are ideally vigorous even under the pressures of life
B. often neglect the consequences of inadequate sleep
C. do not know how to relax properly
D. are more unlikely to run into mental problems
19. When sometimes they cannot enjoy adequate sleep, the long sleepers might __A__.
A. appear disturbed
C. feel dissatisfied
B. become energetic
D. be extremely depressed
20. Which of the following is Not included in the passage?
B
A. If one sleeps inadequately, his performance suffers and his memory is weakened
B. The sleep patterns of short sleepers are exactly the sane as those shown by many mental patients
C. Long and short sleepers differ in their attitudes towards sleep
D. Short sleepers would be better off with more rest
Passage 5
Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completes a university degree or diploma course could find a good
career quite easily. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition
in the search for jobs.
Job seekers first have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their
academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own
personal values and attitudes, or the relative importance to themselves of such matters as money, security, leadership and
caring for others.
The
second
stage
is
to
study
the
opportunities
available
for
employment
and
to
think
about
how
the
general
employment situation is likely to develop in the future. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to
make informed comparisons between various careers.
Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors.
When graduates are asked to attend for interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can about the
prospective
employer.
Dressing
suitably
and
arriving
for
the
interview
on
time
are
also
obviously
important.
Interviewees
should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure
about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer.
There will always be good career opportunities for people with ability, skills and determination; the secret to securing a
good job to be one of them.
21. In Paragraph 1, the sentence
“…
those days are gone, even in Hong Kong
…”
suggest that ___D___.
A. Hong Kong is no longer the good place for finding jobs
B. nowadays, everyone in Hong Kong has an equal chance of finding a good career
C. it used to be harder to find a good job in Hong Kong than in other countries.
D. in the past, finding a good career was easier in Hong Kong than elsewhere
22. The word
“
relative
”
in Paragraph 2 could best be replaced by
“
______B____
”
.
A. family
B. comparative
C. considerate
D. slight
23. The advice given in the first sentence of Paragraph 3 is to ______B_____.
A. find out what jobs are available and the opportunities for future promotion
B. examine the careers available and how these will be affected in the future
C. look at the information on and probable future location of various careers
D. study the opportunities and the kinds of training that will be available
24. The word
“
prospective
”
in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to
“
___C____
”
.
