内容同2012年12月大学英语四级考试多题多卷(一）Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Suffering in silenceDespite a law designed to protect them，many people with disabling conditions are unaware of their rights. Carole Concha-Bell tells of her experiences.Being diagnosed with a disabling condition is always a shock. Learning to live without the guarantee of health is like having to unlearn a previous life. The implications for your working life may seem intimidating.There is the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA), of course. But does it really provide the protection in the workplace that parliament intended? Are employers merely paying lip service to the DDA? Or are they even aware of an employer’s legal duties and responsibilities?In my experience, it is the latter. I have received little support from employers to whom I have revealed my condition. This has often left me feeling at a disadvantage and wondering why I bothered doing so in the first place.I had been struggling with illness long before I was diagnosed. In practical terms the diagnosis did little to aid me. Of course，it enabled me to understand my body, my limitations and set me on a course to stabilise my symptoms. But it brought a new dilemma. Where I had previously struggled to work while ill, ignorant of why my body was misbehaving, I now had a name for my daily struggle：Lupus (狼疮). This is a chronic (慢性的)auto-immune disorder that can affect virtually any system in the body. It also leaves a huge，dark question hanging over my head when seeking employment：should I tell my employers I have a condition? It is a dilemma that continues to be a root cause of anxiety both for myself and for thousands of other UK employees.The rocky road to my unfortunate enlightenment about work and disability began just after graduation when I，d set my sights on a career in communications and landed my dream job with a respected public relations consultancy (咨询公司）in Bristol. But while I was learning the art of media relations, my body wasn’t quite making it in health terms. I often went to work with swollen limbs and fevers. At my first and last performance review, my boss was amazed that, despite my many capabilities, I hadn’t quite taken control of my responsibilities. A few months later, my contract wasn’t renewed and I plunged further into new depths of ill health.However, I was determined not to be beaten and returned to the interview trail. My next job was in publishing. But despite a shining performance at the interview, I felt like a fraud. How long would it be before Isank into ill health and depression again?The job was to end with a monumental bang when I became so poorly I could no longer function. A few feverish weeks in bed ended in specialist appointment, where I was diagnosed with Lupus and rushed into hospital for fear that it may have attacked my internal organs.The next 12 months were filled with confusion. I had no idea about benefits, felt alienated (被视为另类)by the medical establishment and lived off my savings until I was broke. I realised I needed help from my family and moved to London.As soon as I felt better, I marched into a marketing recruitment consultancy and, within 10 minutes, I had i mpressed the interviewer enough to be offered a job with the agency. W e agreed on a decent salary and I told him I ha d arthr itis (关节炎)and would need to w ork a four-day week.Things went well at the start but soon the client meetings began to fall on my day off, and I rarely left the office on time. I began to slip both in health and professional terms. The 10-hour days crashed around my head；no amount of make-up could disguise my ill health as I battled against the odds to prove to myself that I could still make it in the business world. I often cried on the bus on the way back from work.Not long before my contract was due to be made permanent, I was calle d to the boss’s offic e and given the “talk” about how my performance was slipping, how awful I looked. I felt too weak to fight back and agreed to leave. No attempts to offer adjustments to my job, such as being able to work from home, were ever made. I had a case for unfair dismissal under the DDA, but was ignorant of this at the time.An estimated 10 million people in the UK, or 17% of the population qualify for disability status under the DDA. I have encountered a number of them：the liver-diseased boss; the co-worker with a heart condition; and my asthmatic (哮喘的）trainee-teacher friend. None had disclos ed (透露）their conditions to employers, and all were feeling the strain of not doing so.T o access your rights under the DDA and to request “reasonable adjustments” to your working conditions or your workplace requires disclosure. I had warned my former employer about my condition but it served little purpose. They were ignorant about their obligations to their disabled staff.However, there are plenty of forward-thinking organisations that have inclusive recruitment policies; arc more likely to employ a worker with a disability；and arc more aware of their legal duties. The public sector outperforms the private, but not always the voluntary, according to studies for the Disabilities Rights Commission.I decided to give the voluntary sector a go and was surprised to be offered flexible working conditions and other solutions to meet my needs as an employee. But given the choice, I would still prefer a career in the private sector, which for me is more dynamic, has more attractive salaries and offers better prospects than the voluntary or public sectors.Despite the advances of the DDA, there will always be an army of workers who will soldier on, maybe aware of their rights but choosing to remain silent for personal reasons. It is important, though, to recognise the significance of the act, the protection it affords and the obligations that employers have to us as employees and as human beings.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1 上作答。

Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase. Long-term goals may be related toour dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? ______.A、The long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without achieving short-term goalsB、The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goalsC、Life is a static thing, thus never allowing a long-term goal to limit usD、We should often add new short-term goals to what have been completed学员答案:C正确性:正确。

Buses offer the added advantage of being able to see various areas of Manhattan While you ride.How Much Does the Bus Cost?Fare is $2.25 and can be paid with a MetroCard or coins (no dollar bills, no pennies).A free transfer to another bus or the subway within 2 hours is available if you paid with a MetroCard.If you pay cash you can ask for a transfer, but it is only good for transferringto another bus (not to the subway) within 2 hours.Getting On and Off the BusYou must wait for buses at designated (指定的) bus stops.As you see the bus approaching your stops, you can put your arm out to indicate to the driver that you want to board the bus.Enter the bus through the front doors and pay your fare.Take a seat or move toward the back of the bus to make room for other people boarding the bus.To request a stop: Pull the cord or press the black band near the windows. A “Stop Requested” light will be on immediately at the front of the bus.36. Compared with buses, the subway for traveling around New York City is likely to be__________.A) fasterB) slowerC) more expensiveD) more convenient37. One advantage of traveling by bus is that you can ___________.A) book a comfortable seatB) buy your ticket in advanceC) transfer to the subway freelyD) see different areas of Manhattan38.

To ask for a stop while riding a bus, you may __________.A) raise your handB) move toward the front doorC) press the black band near the windowsD) turn off th e “Stop Requested” light immediatelyTask 2Marketing furniture to the public can be challenging for a small business owner. Consumers buy furniture pieces only occasionally. However, there are severalfurniture promotion ideas that can be used to help you reach your target market. One thing you can do is to talk with real estate (房地产) agents to allow you to display your furniture in a new home or open house setting. This is a good way to reach a key target market – new home buyers – who may need new furniture for their future homes. Increasing foot traffic (顾客流量) is also important for a furniture store. To get more people to the store, you can advertise a raffle event (抽奖活动). This event can be promoted in your local media and through direct mail campaigns or front door advertisements to generate more interest.In tough economic times, small business owners often suffer most as a result of slow consumer spending. To fight back against this, you have to make it easier of your customers to buy furniture. If you can, offer in-store financing, or drop the interest rate on your company’s credit terms, Consider lowering your prices and holding two-for-one events to arouse more consumer interest.41. Why is it a challenge for small businesses to sell furniture to the public？A) The style of furniture changes fast.B) Their furniture is often old-fashioned.C) People buy furniture only occasionally.D) The public’s taste for furniture is different.42.

At night, they do research for their term papers on laptops and commune with their parents on Skype. But as they walk the paths of Hamilton College, a poster-perfect liberal arts school in this upstate village, students are still hauling around bulky, old-fashioned textbooks-and loving it."The screen won't go blank," said Faton Begolli, a junior from Boston. "There can't be a virus. It wouldn't be the same without books. They've defined 'academia' (学术) for a thousand years."Though the world of print is receding before a tide of digital books, blogs and other Web sites, a generation of college students growing up with technology appears to be holding fast to traditional textbooks. That loyalty comes at a price. Textbooks are expensive-a year's worth can cost $700 to $900-and students' frustrations with theexpense, as well as the emergence of new technology, have produced a perplexing array of options for obtaining them.Internet retailers like Amazon and are selling new and used books. They have been joined by several Web services that rent textbooks to students by the semester. Some 1500 college bookstores are also offering rentals this fall, up from 300 last year. Here at Hamilton, students this year have a new way to avoid the middleman: a nonprofit Web site, created by the college's Entrepreneur Club, that lets them sell used books directly to one another.The explosion of outlets and formats-including digital books, which are rapidly becoming more sophisticated-has left some students bewildered. After completing the difficult job of course selection, they are forced to weigh cost versus convenience, analyze their own study habits and guess which texts they will want for years to come and which they will not miss."It depends on the course," said Victoria Adesoba, a student at New York University who was standing outside that school's bookstore, a powder-blue book bag slung over her shoulder "Last semester, I rented for psychology, and it was cheaper. But for something like organic chemistry, I need to keep the book. E-textbooks are good, but it's tempting to go on Facebook, and it can strain your eyes."For all the talk that her generation is the most technologically knowledgeable in history, paper-and-ink textbooks do not seem destined to disappear anytime soonAccording to the National Association of College Stores, digital books make up just under 3% of, although the association expects that share to grow to 10-15% by 2012 as more titles are made available as e-books.In two recent studies-one by the association and another by the Student Public Interest Research Groups-three-quarters of the students surveyed said they still preferred a bound book to a digital version.Many students are reluctant to give up the ability to flip quickly between chapters, write in the margins and highlight passages, although new software applications are beginning to allow students to use e-textbooks that way."Students grew up learning from print books." said Nicole Allen, the textbooks campaign director for the research groups, "so as they transition to higher education, it's not surprising that they prefer a format that they are most accustomed to."Indeed, many Hamilton students grow passionate about the weighty volumes they still carry from dorm room to lecture hall to library, even as they compulsively(克制不住地) check their smartphones for text messages and c-mails."I believe that the codex is one of mankind's best inventions," said Jonathan Piskor, a junior from North Carolina, using the Latin term for book.That passion may be one reason that Barnes & Noble College Booksellers is working so hard to market its new software application, NOOK study, which allows students to navigate e-textbooks on Macs and PCs. The company, which operates 636 campus bookstores nationwide, introduced the free application last summer in hopes of luring more students to buy its electronic textbooks."The real obstacle is getting them to try it," said Tracey Weber, the company'sexecutive vice president.The company is giving away "College Kick-Start Kits" to students who download NOOK study in the fall semester, with a dozen classic e-books like The Canterbury Tales and The Scarlet Letter. CourseSrnart is letting students try any c-textbook free for two weeks.But not every textbook is available in digital or rental format. At Hamilton, for instance, only about one-fifth of the titles are sold as e-textbooks this fall. A stroll through the campus store revealed the price difference. A book on constitutional law, for instance, was $189.85 new, $142.40 used and $85.45 for rent. (Typically, an e-textbook is cheaper than a used book, though more expensive than a rental.)The expense of college textbooks, which is estimated to have risen four times the inflation rate in recent years, has become such a concern that some politicians are taking up the cause. Last month, Senator Charles E. Schumer of New York urged more college stores to rent books, after a survey of 38 campus bookstores in New York City and on Long Island by his office found that 16 did not offer the option.On Thursday, students at more than 40 colleges nationwide are planning an Affordable Textbooks Day of Action to encourage faculty members to assign texts that are less expensive, or offered free online.For now, buying books the old-fashioned way-new or used-prevails. Charles Schmidt, the spokesman for the National Association of College Stores, said that if a campus store sold a new book for $100, it would typically buy the book back for $50 at semester's end and sell it to the next student for $75.The buy-back price plunges, however, if the professor drops the book from the syllabus or if the bookstore has bought enough books to meet demand. When Louis Boguchwal, majoring in economics and math, tried to sell a $100 linear algebra(线性代数) textbook back to the college bookstore, he was offered $15."It was insulting," he said. "They give you next to nothing."Thus, the creation of Hamilton's new nonprofit Web site, get my . So far, traffic has been light: only about 70 books have been sold this fall. But Jason Mariasis, president of the Entrepreneur Club, said he expected sales to pick up as word spread.Mr. Begolli, a member of the club, recently sold three German novels for $17 on the site. "If I had sold them back to the bookstore, I would have gotten $7 or $8,"he said. "The bookstore is king when it comes to. We felt there should be something for students, by students."Yet some students have to go it alone. Rosemary Rocha, an N.Y.U. student pursuing a degree in hospitality and tourism management, added up her required reading for the semester: $600. "It's harsh," she said. "I'm currently collecting unemployment, so that's not going to happen."Instead, she waits to borrow the few copies her professors leave on reserve at the library, or relies on the kindness of classmates. "My friends will let me borrow their books in exchange for coffee or a slice of pizza," she said. "I very seldom buy the textbooks, but I'm always like a chicken without a head."注意：此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

It listed all the tradesmen in each village in my part of the country, and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one'''' s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside. Nowadays a superficial traveller in rural England might conclude that the village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the inhabitants or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. Admittedly there has been a contraction （收缩） of village commerce, but its vigor is still remarkable.Our local grocer''''s shop, for example, is actually expanding inspite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing （排队） up at a supermarket. And the proprietor （店主） knows well that personal service has a substantial cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing ofbicycling on the village street in their lunch hour to take a pieceof cheese to an old age pensioner （领养老金） who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing. The more affluent customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods areon their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red-faced figure, instantly obtains it for them.The village gains from this sort of enterprise, of course. But I also find it satisfactory because a village shop offers one of the few ways in which a modest individualist can still get along in the world without attaching himself to the big battalions of industry or commerce. The writer implies that one disadvantage of town shops is that __.A. their prices are higherB. people cannot telephone themC. their staff may make less trouble to satisfy customersD. one has 10 queue up to pay in them18. Great changes ( ) in China since 1978.A. have been taken placeB. have taken placeC. has been taken placeD. has taken place19. He wore dark glasses to avoid _____.A. having been spottedB. to be spottedC. spottedD. being spotted20. From time to time she looked round ( ) searching for someone.A. as toB. asC. as forD. as if21. A man walked into a restaurant that advertised having the longest menu in the world. The manager was very proud of being able to provide any dish, no matter how unusual.At the bottom of the menu, there was a notice that said, “If you do not see the dish you require on this menu, please tell us and we will add it to the menu immediately.”The man looked at the menu and decided to make life really difficult for the manager and his chef. He would order something that was very unusual.When the waiter came up to take his order, he said, “You say you can serve any dish, anything at all, even if it''''s not on your menu, which is the longest menu in the world.”“That is correct, sir. We have never yet been unable to meet our customers'''' requirem ents.”“Very well,” the man said. “In that case, bring me two elephant ears on toast. Indian, not African.”The waiter wrote down on his pad：Two Indian elephant ears on toast. “Very good, sir”, he said. “That shouldn''''t take long. ”He walked away quickly.The man was very surprised and rather disappointed.Then he smiled as the waiter returned with a very unhappy look on his face.“Ah! ”the man said. “You can’t bring me elephant ears on toast, can you? ”The waiter was very apologetic.“I’m very sorry, sir, and this is most embarrassing, ” he said, “but I’m afraid we can’t. Unfortunately, we’ve run out ofbread. ” the waiter was unhappy because _____ .A. the man didn''''t order elephant earsB. they had no elephant to cookC. they didn''''t want to serve the customerD. the chef didn''''t know how to cook the elephant ears22.

Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.“Well, the main thing was learni ng how to face an audience ... not to be inhibited( 拘谨 )... not to be nervousExactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’ t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’ re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to read out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your long-standing nervous inhibitions.The same is true of writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ ll read what youwrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and read 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(1). The topic of the passage is ________A. how to be a good writerB. how to be a good speakerC. how to express yourself with your wordsD. how to get rid of nervousness in public speaking(2). The public speech course mainly teaches students ______A. how to make an attractive speech using perfect grammar and vocabularyB. how to express themselves exactly and vividlyC. how to collect data needed and organize itD. how to get over their nervousness when making a speech(3). The similarity between making a public speech and writing isthat _______A. you have to do a lot of preparation work beforehandB. you should get over your nervous inhibitionsC. you should know grammar and vocabulary well to accomplish themD. both of them have audience(4). In the opinion of the author, public speaking is much easier than writing because _______A. public speaking requires less effort than writingB. it’ s unnecessary for you to write a lot for speech and you can say anything as you likeC. you face the audience directly in public speaking; while writingis otherwiseD. in public speaking, the audience have to listen to you whether they like it or not(5). The author of this passage probably is a ________A. bossB. politicianC. writerD. professor2."The pen is more powerful than the sword (剑)." There have been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them.She was born in the USA in 1811. One of her books not only made her famous but has been described as one that excited the world, and was helpful in causing a civil war and freezing the slaves. The civil warwas the American Civil War of 1861, in which the Northern States fought the Southern States and finally won.This book was named "Uncle Tom''''s Cabin". There was time when every English-speaking man, woman, and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery. Not many people read it today, but it isstill very interesting. The book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse (唤起) people''''s sympathies (同情). The writer herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave. The Southern Americans were very angry at the novel, which they said did not at all represent (代表) true state of affairs, but the Northern Americans were wildly excited over it and were so inspired (激励) by it that they-were ready to go to war to set the slaves free.(1). According to the passage ( ).A. every English-speaking person had read "Uncle Tom''s Cabin"B. "Uncle Tom''s Cabin" was not very interestingC. those who don''t speak English can not have read "Uncle Tom''s Cabin"D. the book "Uncle Tom''s Cabin" did a great deal in the American Civil War(2).

What do you learn about Mrs. Stowe from the passage? ( )A. AShe had been living in the north of America before the American Civil War.B. She herself encouraged the northern Americans to go to war and set the slaves free.C. She was better as writing as using a sword.D. She had once been a slave.(4). Why could Mrs. Stowe''s book cause a civil war in America? ( )A. She wrote so well that Americans loved her very much.B. She disclosed (揭露) the terrible wrongs that had been done to the slaves in the Southern States.C. The Southern Americans hated the book while the Northern Americans like it.D. The book had been read by many Americans.(5). What can we learn from the passage? ( )A. We needn''t use weapons (武器) to fight things that are wrong.B. writer is more helpful in a war than a soldier.C. We must understand the importance of literature and art.D. No war can be won without such a book as "Uncle Tom''s Cabin".3. The ordinary raindrop is a mighty earth mover with sufficient strength to cut rock. When rainwater collects on the surface of the ground, some of it evaporates and some of it sinks into the earth.The remainder begins to flow downhill, commencing its lengthy journey form brook to stream to lake, or to a river that will carry it to the sea.As water flows along the ground, it picks up sand, pebbles, even boulders. It uses them to gnaw at the sides and bottom of its channel, gradually loosening more earth.By this process enormous amounts of mud and rock are moved from the land to the sea. Each year the Mississippi River carries 730 million tons of solid matter into the Gulf of Mexico.This constant hauling of land into the sea is lowering the United States’ average height above sea level at a rate of about one foot every 9000 years. If erosion continues at the same rate, the United States will be worn completely down to sea level in about 23 million years.(1). Flowing water gradually makes its channel ______.A. narrowerB. deeperC. widerD. both B and C(2). The average height of the United States above sea level ___.A. is being raised each yearB. remains constantC. will reach sea level in 9000 yearsD. is being lowered little by little(3). Erosion by water results in _______.A. wearing down the soilB. building up landC. enriching the soilD. both B and C(4). Implied but not stated: ________A. Millions of years ago the United States was higher than it is nowB. Great amounts of land are moved to the sea by riversC. The water that sinks into the earth also reaches the oceanD. The Gulf of Mexico will be filled up in about 23 million years(5). The best title for this selection is ________.A. How Water Destroys MountainsB. How Rivers Help UsC. The Average Height of the United StatesD. The Mighty Raindrop4. It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it. Then life is no longer difficult. Most people do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent ( 代表 ) a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is the process of facing and solving problems and it is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness or, loneliness or regret or anger of fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, "Those things that hurt, instruct." It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.(1). From the passage, it can be inferred that ( ).A. everybody has problemsB. we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of lifeC. life is difficult because our problems bring us painD. people like to complain about their problems(2). The writer probably used one short sentence in the first paragraph to ( ).A. save spaceB. persuade readersC. make readers laughD. get readers'' attention(3). The main idea of paragraph three is that ( ).A. most people feel life is easyB. the writer feels life is easyC. the writer likes to complain about his problemsD. Problem solving is part of life(4). According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to ( ).A. encourage them to learnB. teach them to fear the pain of solving the problemC. help them learn to deal with painD. teach them how to respect from problems(5). The saying from Benjamin Franklin "Those things that hurt, instruct" suggest that ( ).A. we do not learn from experienceB. we do not learn when we are painC. pain teaches us important lessonsD. pain cannot be avoid答案：一、单项选择题（60分，共 60 题，每小题 1 分）1.

Online HomeWork_U5B3-1I. Reading ComprehensionSection A Fast Reading1 Maintaining a marriage is the responsibility of both you, the wife and mother, and your husband. Living together is already a challenge for couples faced with new situations, a new environment, and new responsibilities, but these challenges tend to increase when you become parents. It is not easy to adjust immediately to the new situation especially when you become the proud parents of two or more at the same time. Then the adjustments are even tougher. While you may not even have enough energy to care for the infants and keep the house clean, you may find that you have even less energy left with which to maintain your marriage.2 Are you aware that statistics show that parents of multiples have a higher stress level and tend to argue more often which leads to a higher divorce rate? It is also seen that these children are more likely to suffer some form of child abuse than other children who don‟t come from homes with multiple s.3 There are many reasons why the marriage struggles during the years of bringing up multiple-birth children. One reason is that when you start feeling overwhelmed with stress, little things start adding up, sleep deprivation, fatigue, the need for personal time and depression can all become too overwhelming to handle, especially when you get no co-operation from your spouse. This can be overcome by talking openly with your spouse and sharing responsibilities. Understanding each other is important to help maintain your marriage especially during the tough times.4 Caring for your children is another area where fathers can and should get involved. Talk with your spouse about getting more involved, and even if he was not born with the skills of parenting, let him make an effort to learn through experience. Be specific about areas where you would like his help. Make him feel he is as capable as you of caring for your babies. Make your spouse feel that he is important and needed. Make him realize that you believe in him as a father. By doing that he will feel proud and self confident in assisting at home. Remember not to push him, give him the chance and time to learn, and the freedom to do things in his own way, even if that means he will make some mistakes. Help him to realize that it‟s not only about helping out at home, but rather more, it is a strong contribution towards maintaining a good married life.5 It is vital for you both, as parents of multiples, to have an outlet to release and share your frustrations, to keep your senses clear and maintain a great relationship with the children as well as each other. When you handle situations wisely, you can strengthen both your marriage and your family.1Statements based on the passage:1. Young couples find it easy to live together because they are faced with newsituations and responsibilities.2. A couple may have less energy to maintain their marriage if they have severalchildren at the same time to take care of.3. Cooperation and understanding between a couple are important to help maintaintheir marriage during the years of bringing up multiples.4. When bringing up multiple-birth children, mother will have more sleep, fatigue andpersonal time.5. Only fathers who were born with the skills of parenting should get involved incaring for children.6. It is not easy for a woman to bring up multiples on her own without the help of her spouse.7. Fathers can also be good at looking after children with a little training.8. Mothers should be tolerant when fathers make some mistakes in assisting at home.9. Fathers‟ involvement in caring for children helps maintain a good married life.10. It is unnecessary for parents to release their frustrations and stresses every nowand then.Section B Passage ReadingPassage 1On the morning of September 11th, I boarded the train from Washington Heights in Upper Manhattan just as usual and went to the Body Positive office in the South Street Seaport of Lower Manhattan. While I was leaving the subway at 8:53 am, a man ran down the street screaming, “someone just bombed the World Trade Center.” Those around me screamed and shouted “No!” in disbelief. However, being an amateur photographer, and thinking that I might be able to help out, I ran directly toward the WTC. I stopped just short of the WTC at a corner and looked up. There2before me stood the gaping hole and fire that had taken over the first building. I stood there in shock taking pictures, wanting to run even closer to help out, but I could not move. Soon I saw what looked like little angels floating down from the top of the building. I began to cry when I realized that these “angels”—in fact, desperate office workers—were coming down, some one by one, some even holding hands with another. Could I actually be seeing this disaster unfold with hundreds of people around me crying, screaming and running for safety?As I watched in horror, another white airliner came from the south and took aim at the South Tower. As the plane entered the building, there was an explosion and fire and soon debris (碎片) began to fall around me. It was then that I realized that we were being attacked and that this was just not a terrible accident. Yet, I still could not move, until I was pushed down by the crowd on the street, many now in a panic running toward the water, as far from the WTC as they could possibly get. All around me were the visual reminders of hundreds of people running in panic. There were shoes, hats, briefcases, pocketbooks, newspapers, and other personal items dropped as hundreds of people ran for safety.Much has been written about the disaster already. We have learned so much in such a small amount of time about appreciating life. In some way we must move forward, bury the dead, build a memorial for those lost, and begin the coping and healing process for the survivors. But healing takes time. Some have been able to head right back to work, others seek counseling, while others remain walking through the streets with expressionless faces. However, we are all united in our grief.11. According to the f irst paragraph, people couldn‟t believe that ______.A. someone bombed the World Trade Center.B. the subway ran into a man who was screaming.C. office workers jumped from the World Trade Center.D. people were running from the subway screaming.12. At first look, the author thought that desperate office workers were ______.A. crying as they fell.B. running for safety.C. holding hands.D. angels in the sky.13. What was the author‟s first reflection when he stood at the corner?A. Nothing could he do to help out.B. There was an accident with an airliner. 3C. He was just at a loss and could not understand everything happening.D. A terrorist attack against America had begun.14. What did the author do on seeing the South Tower being attacked?A. He watched in horror and took pictures.B. He was elbowed by the crowd running off to a safe place.C. He ran nearer to help out.D. he ran nearer to take pictures.15. In the last paragraph, all of the following are mentioned EXCEPT that ______.A. life should be appreciatedB. people are deep in grief, but they are unitedC. we should stop and consider carefully what to doD. work should be done about the dead and the livingPassage 2On Mother‟s Day when we visited Mom in the hospital, she told us she believed the multiple rounds of chemotherapy (化疗), radiation, ICU (intensive care unit) stays, and surgeries had been worth it because they had bought her some time. “But now,it‟s time to go home and …take care of business‟.”Shortly after coming home, Mom announced that she planned to make a quilt(拼接缝制的被子), which she had never done. When I asked why, she said, “Dying is boring, and it‟s never too late to learn something new.” The idleness associated with incapacity was madding to her. Over the next few months Mom worked diligently on the quilt, a simple pattern called “Grandmother‟s Garden”.As she picked up a piece of calico (印花布), she would say, “This reminds me of the dress you wore your first day of school,” or “This blue was your father‟s favorite color.” Each recollection opened the door for a conversation about those things that she wanted to share.As the quilt grew, Mom weakened. It was a poignant reminder that time was passing too quickly. At last, she became too sick to work on the quilt.Mom died before the quilt was finished, but it was all right. She had creatively used it as a tool to teach me her final lesson, that the “business” of dying is something best done at home and not in an intensive care unit. This is because the real “business” of dying is reaffirming relationships that have given one‟s life meaning.Without my knowledge, two Christmases later, my husband‟s parents finished the quilt for me. It was the most wonderful gift imaginable. 4Mom‟s quilt has served our family in many ways she would have liked — picnic cloth, moving pad, bedspread, and wrap for her great-grandson. Each time, the quilt reminds me of the bond between generations and the imp ortant “business” of dying.16. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following is true?A. Mom thought that hospital treatment produced no effect.B. Mom wanted to take care of family business.C. Mom had received many kinds of treatments in hospital.D. Mom had recovered from surgeries and decided to go home.17. Why did Mom plan to make a quilt?A. Because she wanted to leave something valuable to her grandchidren.B.

Reading ComprehensionSection A Fast Reading1 At a primary school in Manning, a small town 65 miles east of Columbia, South Carolina, second grade teachers Holly Garneau and Anna Lynne Gamble are convinced that segregating elementary-age boys and girls produces immediate academic improvement---in both genders. The two created a teaching plan for the upcoming semester. But first, Garneau and Gamble need the parents‟ approval. That‟s where David Chadwell, South Carolina‟s coordinator of single gender education, comes in.2 Just as he‟s explained to hundreds of parents and teachers across the state, Chadwell patiently walks the Manning crowd through how boys and girls perceive the world.3 “They see differently.Literally,” he begins. Male and female eyes are not organized in the same way, he explains. The composition of the male eye makes it attuned to motion and direction. “Boys interpret the world as objects moving through space,” he says. “The teacher should move around the room constantly and be that object.”4 The male eye is also drawn to cooler colors like silver, blue, black, grey, and brown. It‟s no accident boys tend to create pictures of moving objects like spaceships,cars, and trucks in dark colors instead of drawing the happy colorful family, like girls in their class.5 The female eye, on the other hand, is drawn to textures and colors. It‟s also oriented toward warmer colors---reds, yellow, oranges---and visuals with more details, like faces. To engage girls, Chadwell says, the teacher doesn‟t need to move as much, if at all. Girls work well in circles, facing each other. Using descriptive phrases and lots of color in overhead presentations or on the chalkboard gets their attention.6 Boys and girls also hear differently. “When someone speaks in a loud tone, girls interpret it as yelling,” Chadwell says. “They think you‟re mad and can shut down.” Girls have a more finely tuned aural(听觉的) structure; they can hear higher frequencies than boys and are more sensitive to sounds. He advises girls‟ teachers to watch the t one of their voices. Boys‟ teachers should sound matter of fact, even excited.7 A boy‟s autonomic nervous system causes them to be more alert when they are standing, moving, and the room temperature is around 69 degrees. Stress in boys, he says, tends to increase blood flow to their brains, a process that helps them stay focused. This won‟t work for girls, who are more focused seated in a warmer room around 75 degrees. Girls also respond to stress differently. When exposed to threat and confrontation, blood goes to their guts, leaving them feeling nervous or anxious.8 “Boys will rise to a risk and tend to overestimate their abilities,” he says. Teachers can help them by getting them to be more realistic about results,” he says. “Girls at this age shy away from risk, which is exactly why lots of girls‟ programs began in the private sector. Teachers can help them learn to take risks in an atmosphere where they feel confident about doing so.”9 These differences can be accommodated in the classroom, C hadwell adds. “Single gender programs are about maximizing the learning.”1. It is of much help to achieve academic improvement by segregating both genders at primary-age.2. Before the teaching plan which raised by Garneau and Gamble is put into practice, it is necessary to get the students‟ parents‟ approval.3. Boys see the world as objects moving through space is due to the reason that the teacher goes around the classroom constantly.4. Girls tend to draw the happy colorful family in their class. So do the boys.5. For girls, it is enough to use descriptive phrases and lots of color on the blackboard to get their attention.6. Boys can hear higher frequencies than girls and more sensitive to sounds, because they have a finely tuned aural structure.7. In class, girls‟ teachers should watch the tone of their voice while boys‟ teachers should sound more excited.8. Stress in boys tends to increase blood flow to their brains, making them nervous or anxious.9. Boys and girls see and hear differently and respond to stress differently.10. Since boys are likely to overestimate their abilities, teachers can help them bymaking them more realistic.Section B Passage ReadingPassage 1Big Ben is one of London‟s best-known landmarks, and looks most spectacular at night when the clock faces are lighted. You even know when parliament is in session, because a light shines above the clock face.The four dials of the clock are 23 feet square, the minute hand is 14 feet long and the figures are 2 feet high. Minutely regulated with a stack of coins placed on the huge pendulum, Big Ben is an excellent timekeeper, which has rarely stopped.The name Big Ben actually refers not to the clock tower itself, but to the thirteen-ton bell hung within. The bell was named after the first commissioner of works, Sir Benjamin Hall. This bell came originally from the old Palace of Westminster, and was given to the Dean of St. Paul by William III. Before returning to Westminster to hang in its present home, it was refashioned in White Chapel in 1858. The BBC first broadcast the chimes(报时) on 31 December 1923. There is a microphone in the tower connected to Broadcasting House.During the Second World War in 1941, a bomb destroyed the Commons chamber of the Houses of Parliament, but the clock tower remained intact and Big Ben continued to keep time and strike away the hours. Its unique sound was broadcast to the nation and around the world, a welcome reassurance of hope to all who heard it.The tower is not open to th e general public, but those with a “special interest” may arrange a visit to the top of the clock tower through a guide.11.

His father, supporting the decision, found a place for him in a supermarket. “You‟re lucky, Ron,” he said. “For every boy with a job these days, there‟s a dozen without.” So Ron joined the working world at 20 pounds a week.For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food. By the end of that time he was looking back on his school days as a time of great variety and satisfaction. He searched for an interest in his work, with little success.One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south. With nine pounds in his pocket, a full heart and great longing for the sea, he set out to make a better way for himself. That evening, in Bournemouth, he had a sandwich and adrink in a cafe run by an elderly man and his wife. Before he had finished the sandwich, the woman had taken him on for the rest of the summer, at 20 pounds a week, a room upstairs and three meals a day. The ease and speed of it rather took Ron‟s breath away. At quiet times Ron had to check the old man‟s arithmetic in the records of the business.At the end of the season, he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of 17 to make a living. He worked in shops mostly, but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks. Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop. Ron soon found himself in charge there; he was the only one who could keep the books.16. What did Ron‟s father mean by saying “For every boy with a job these days,there‟s a dozen without”?A. Every boy could only have one job because there weren‟t enough.B. Ron was fortunate to get a job when many others didn‟t have one.C. In those days, boys had jobs but girls didn‟t.D. There must have been at least twelve boys who had lost their jobs.17. The reason that Ron left his first job is that ______.A. he got a free lift on a lorryB. he did not feel good in itC. he wanted to work at the seasideD. he knew he would find work in Bournemouth18. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. The money.B. The meals.C. The cafe.D. The job.19. How many jobs in all did Ron take in the passage?A. Six.B. Five.C. Four.D. Three.20. Ron soon found himself having some say in the shoe shop because ______.A. he knew how to keep the accounts of the businessB. he had lots of experience with shopsC. he got on well with the manager thereD. he was young and strongSection C Reading in DepthAre you single but too busy to search for love? Then you need to try the latest dating phenomenon that is sweeping across the UK---speed dating.Speed dating involves men and women meeting in a room and finding out as much as they can about possible 21 in three minutes.

In a number of Europeancountries，people can turn on their TVs and shop for clothes，jewelry，food，toys，and many other things. Teleshopping is becoming popular in Sweden，for example. Thebiggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 Europeancountries，and in one year it made $100 million. In France there are two teleshoppingchannels，and the French spend about $20 million a year to buy things through thosechannels. In Germany，until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for1 hour every day. Then the government allowed more teleshopping. Other channels canopen for telebusiness，including the largest American teleshopping company and a24-hour teleshopping company. German businesses are hoping this new teleshoppingwill help them sell more things. Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the problems of traffic in the cities ，this is an important reason. But at the same time ，other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They can do teleshopping "junk on the air". Many Europeans usually worry about the quality of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them ，and they believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV. The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies. They will have to be more careful about the quality of the things they sell. They will also have to work harder to sell things that the buyers cannot touch or see in person.

But the extent to which TV may or may not be to blame is a question that the study leaves unanswered. The researchers used a national long-term survey of adolescent health to investigate the relationship between media use and depression. They based their findings on more than four thousand adolescents who were not depressed when the survey began in 1995. As part of the survey, the youngpeople were asked how many hours of television or videos they watched daily. They were also asked how often they played computer games and listened to the radio. Media use totaled an average of 5.5 hours a day. More than 2 hours of that was spent watching TV. Seven years later, in 2002, more than 7 percent of the young people had signs of depression. The average age at that time was 21. Brian Primack at the University of Pittsburgh medical school was the lead author of the new study. He says every extra hour of television meant an 8 percent increase in the chances of developing signs of depression. The researchers say they did not find any such relationship with the use of other media such as movies, video games or radio. But the study did find that young men were more likely than young women to develop depression, given the same amount of media use. Doctor Primack says the study did not explore if watching TV causes depression. But one possibility, he says, is that it may take time away from activities that could help prevent depression, like sports and socializing. It might also interfere with sleep, he says, and that could have an influence. 1.

They will turn themselves off and on again when you return. A sensor will detect the presence of a human and turn the systems on, and when the humans leave it will turn them off again. The sensors will work through the central home computer, and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off for you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, isolate them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect fire and if you are out of the house, the computer will call the firemen. It will also call the police, should the sensors detect an intruder （非法闯入者）.

All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they couldcommunicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
