Scientists at the University of California, Berkeley, US, people are more likely to do 42 The scientists did a series of eight experiments. They Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley. They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestri ans at crosswalks.

In another experiment, a group of college students was asked if they would do unethical(不 道德的) things in various everyday situations and families were more likely to act dishonestly. According to the scientists, rich people often think money can get them out of trouble. This makes them less afraid to take risks. It also means they care less about other people’s feelings. Finally, it 48 makes them greedier . “Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more, and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self-interest,” said Paul Piff, lead scientist of the study. Piff pointed out that the findings don’t mean that all rich people are untrustworthy or all poor people honest. He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their 49 and values in different ways. and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more

Directions: Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B,C or D. Choose the one that suits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Acting is such an over-crowded profession that the only advice that should be given to a young person thinking of going on the stage is “Don’t!”. But it is useless to try to discourage someone who feels that he must act, though the chances of his becoming famous are slim. The normal way to begin is to go to a drama school. Usually only students who show promise and talent are accepted, and the course lasts two years. Then the young actor or actress takes up work with a repertory company, usually as an assistant stage manager. This means doing everything that there is to do in the theatre: painting scenery, looking after the furniture, taking care of the costumes, and even acting in very small parts. It is very hard work indeed. The hours are long and the salary is tiny. But young actors with the stage in their blood are happy, waiting for the chances of working with a better company, or perhaps in films or television. Of course, some people have unusual chances which lead to fame and success without this long and dull training. Connie Pratt, for example, was just an ordinary girl working in a bicycle factory. A film producer happened to catch sight of her one morning waiting at a bus stop, as he drove past in his big car. He told the driver to stop, and he got out to speak to the girl. He asked her if she would like to go to the film studio to do a test, and at first she thought he was joking. Then she got angry and said she would call the police. It took the producer twe nty minutes to tell Connie that he was serious. Then an appointment was made for her to go to the studio the next day. The test was successful. They gave her some necessary lessons and within a few weeks she was playing the leading part opposite one of the most famous actors of the day. Of Course, she was given a more dramatic name, which is now world-famous. But chances like this happen once in a blue moon! 65. According to the passage, the main reason why young people should be discouraged from becoming actors is ______. A. actors are very unusual people B. the course at the drama school lasts two years C. acting is really a hard job D. there are already too many actors 66. According to the context, the sentence “But young actors with the stage in their blood are happy” at the end of the first paragraph means ______. A. they don’t care if their job is hard B. they like the stage naturally C. they are born happy D. they are easily satisfied 67. Connie Pratt soon became a famous actress after ______.
-7-

A. learning some lessons about the art of speaking B. playing her part in the “Blue Colored Moon” C. successfully matching the most famous actors D. acting a leading part with a most famous actor at that time 68. The phrase “once in a blue moon” in last line means ______. A. all at once C. once in a while B. once for a long time D. once and for all (B)

(C) The gift of being able to describe a face accurately is a rare one, as every experienced police officer knows to his cost. As the Lancet put it recently, “When we try to describe faces precisely, words fail us, and we resort to identikit (拼脸型图) procedures.” Yet, according to one authority on the subject, we can each probably recognize more than 1,000 faces, the majority of which differ in fine details. This, when one comes to think of it, is a tremendous feat, though, curiously enough, relatively little attention has been devoted to the fundamental problems of how and why we acquire this gift for recognizing and remembering faces. Is it an inborn property of our brains, or an acquired one? As so often happens, the experts tend to differ. Thus, some argue that it is inborn, and that there are “special characteristics about the brain’s ability to distinguish faces”. In support of this, they note how much better we are at recognizing a face after a single encounter than we are, for example, in recognizing an individual horse. On the other hand, there are those, and they are probably in the majority, who claim that the gift is an acquired one. The arguments in favor of this latter view, it must be confessed, are impressive. It is a habit that is acquired soon after birth. Watch, for instance, how a quite young baby recognizes his mother by sight. Granted that his other senses help – the sound, his sense of smell, the distinctive way she handles him. But of all these, sight is predominant. Formed at the very beginning of life, the ability to recognize faces quickly becomes an established habit, and one that is, essential for daily living, if not necessarily for survival. How essential and valuable it is we probably do not appreciate until we encounter people who have been deprived of the faculty. This unfortunate inability to recognize familiar faces is known to all, but such people can often recognize individuals by their voices, their walking manners or their spectacles. With typical human ingenuity, many of these unfortunate people overcome their handicap by recognizing other characteristic features. 72. It is stated in the passage that ______. A. it is unusual for a person to be able to identify a face satisfactorily B. the ability to recognize faces unhesitatingly is an unusual gift C. quite a few people can visualize faces they have seen D. few people can give exact details of the appearance of a face 73. What the author feels strange about is that _______. A. people have the tremendous ability to recognize more than 1,000 faces B. people don’t think much of the problem of how and why we acquire the ability to recognize and remember faces C. people don’t realize how essential and valuable it is for them to have the ability to recognize faces D. people have been arguing much over the way people recognize and remember faces
- 10 -

74. What is the first suggested explanation of the origin of the ability? A. It is one of the characteristics peculiar to human beings. B. It is acquired soon after birth. C. It is something we can do from the very moment we are born. D. It is learned from our environment and experiences. 75. This passage seems to emphasize that ______. A. the ability to recognize individuals is dependent on other senses as well as sight B. sight is indispensable (必需的) to recognizing individuals C. the ability to recognize faces is a special inborn ability of the brain D. the importance of the ability of recognizing faces is fully appreciated by people. Section C Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need. A. What does the Olympic Motto mean?
B. Research on individual styles improves performance. C. Research holds the key to success. D. Personalized programs will help. E. New equipment has made a difference. F. Is there a limit to record-breaking?
76. ________________________ A world record is every athlete’s dream, but the hard-won records of a few years ago are mostly just today’s qualifying times. Roger Bannister’s famous four-minute mile of 1956 has been beaten by nearly 15 seconds, while almost an hour and twenty minutes has been taken off the women’s marathon since. 1953. ‘Faster, higher, stronger’, is the Olympic motto, and today’s competitors continue to push back the boundaries of what the body can achieve. But one wonders if this can continue. 77. ________________________ The last forty years have seen many important technological advances. For example, since the introduction of strong flexible, fiberglass poles, over a meter has been added to the pole vault record. There have also been important developments in the design of the running shoe. And while a shoe won’t actually make someone run faster, modern shoes do mean many more miles of comfortable, injury-free training. 78. ________________________
- 11 -

Pushing back the limits now depends more on science, technology and medicine than anything else. Athletic technique, training programmes and diets are all being studied to find ways of taking a few more seconds off or adding a few more centimetres to that elusive world record. It seems that natural ability and hard work are no longer enough. 79. ________________________ The research to find more efficient ways of moving goes on. Analysis of an athlete’s style is particularly useful for events like jumping and throwing. Studies show that long jumpers need to concentrate not on the speed of approach, as once thought, but on the angle their bodies make with the ground as they take off. However, the rules governing each sport limit advances achieved by new styles. For instance only one-footed takeoffs are allowed in the high jump. 80. ________________________ In the future, it should be possible to develop a more individual approach to training programmes. Athletes will keep detailed diaries and collect data to help predict the point when training becomes overtraining, the cause of many injuries. If athletes feed all their information into a database, it may then be possible to predict patterns and to advise them individually when they should cut Section D Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Culture shock is so named because of the effect it has on people when they enter a new culture. Experts have been interested in these effects and have agreed on five basic stages of culture shock. These stages are general and should only be used as a reference. Not every individual will go through each stage, and one stage may last longer than another for different individuals. The hardest thing for most travelers to deal with is the emotional “roller coaster” they seem to be riding. One moment they feel very positive toward the new culture, and the next moment very negative. It seems common that international visitors and immigrants vacillate(犹豫不定) between loving and hating a new country. Feelings of separation and alienation can be intensified if they do not have a sense of fitting in or belonging. Fatigue is another problem people face when entering a new culture. There can be a sense of greater need for sleep. This is due not only to physical tiredness, but also to mental fatigue. This mental fatigue comes from straining to comprehend the language, and coping with new situation. The impact of culture shock can vary from person to person. There can be significant differences because some people may be better prepared to enter a new culture. Four factors which play into these are personality, language ability, length of stay, and the emotional support received. It is logical to think that when people are deprived of heir familiar surroundings they will feel
- 12 -

disoriented. One solution some have found is to bring a few small reminders of home. Pictures, wall hangings, favorite utensils, and keepsake are all good candidates to make things feel more familiar. Another helpful activity is to establish little routines that become familiar over time. Even better is fitting things that were part of the regular routine back in the home country into the routine established in the new culture. This will make people feel more at home. (Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.) 81. According to the 1st paragraph, what have experts been interested in? 82. What are the two problems people face when entering a new culture? 83. Coping with new situations may result in__________. 84. The author thinks the more effective way to solve “cultural shock” is__________.

Section B Directions: In Section B, you will hear two short passages, and you will be asked three questions on each of the passages. The passages will be read twice, but the questions will be spoken only once. When you hear a question, read the four possible answers on your paper and decide which one would be the best answer to the question you have heard. Questions 11 and 13 are based on the following passage. Mr. Jackson had to travel somewhere on business and as he was in a hurry, he decided to go by air. He liked to sit beside a window when he was flying. So, when he got into the plane, he looked for a window seat. He found all of them had already been taken except one. There was a soldier sitting in the seat beside this one and Mr. Jackson was happy that he had not taken the one by the window; but, anyhow, he at once went towards it. When he reached it, however, he saw there was a notice on it. It was written in ink and said” This seat is reserved for proper load balance. Thank you.” Mr. Jackson had never seen such notice in a plane before, but he thought that the plane must be carrying something heavy in its baggage room which made it necessary to have the passengers properly balanced, so he walked on and found another empty seat, not beside a window, to sit in. Then, when the plane was quite full, a very beautiful girl stepped into the plane. The soldier quickly took the notice off the seat beside him and in this way succeeded in having the girl beside him during the whole trip. Questions: 11. What was Mr. Jackson happy to find when he got on the plane? (C) 12. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? (B) 13. What did Mr. Jackson find out in the end? (A) Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following news. There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses. Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers. Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month. Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color Is Your Parachute?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career since it was first published in nineteen seventy. Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job. Questions:

14. What can you do by logging on the Craigslist Web site? (B) 15. What can be learned from the passage? (C) 16. How many ways of finding a job are mentioned in the passage? (C) Section C Directions: In Section C, you will hear two longer conversations. The conversations will be read twice. After you hear each conversation, you are required to fill in the numbered blanks with the information you have heard. Write your answers on your answer sheet. Blanks 17 through 20 are based on the following conversation. M: Hi, Jessica, I didn’t see you on Susan’s birthday party last Thursday. What were you doing? W: I am sorry. The college entrance exam is around the corner. I am very busy these days. M: Oh, so you are. What are you going to study in the university? W: I am going to study medicine. I want to be a doctor. M: Don’t you think a doctor’s work is really hard? W: I know a doctor has to work hard, but I feel it a pleasure to save other people’s life. M: I’m sure you’ll be a good doctor since you have a kind heart. W: But a kind heart is not enough. M: I know a doctor must have good knowledge and skills. W: So I must study very hard so that I can be a good doctor in the future. M: I’m sure you will. Blanks 21 through 24 are based on the following conversation. M: Please be seated, Mrs. Cooper. I received your resume last week, and it is very impressive. W: Thank you! M: Could you tell us why you applied to our company? W: The reason is that your company enjoys a good reputation in the field. M: That’s good to hear. Would you mind telling me your present job? W: I’m currently working as a sales manager in a company. M: Why do you think you are the right candidate for this position? W: I have a lot of experience in the field, I deal with the different people and situations on the daily basis, and I enjoy working with people. M: Well, you might just be the person we’ve been looking for. Do you have any questions? W: What kind of benefits package do you offer? M: Two weeks of paid vacation in your first year employment. You are also entitled to medical and dental insurance, but this is something you should discuss with our Personnel Department. Do you have any other questions? W: No, not at the moment. M: Well, I have to discuss your application with my colleagues and we’ll get back to you early next week. W: Ok, thank. It’s been nice meeting you! M: Nice meeting you too!
