Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A,B,C or Don ANSWER SHEET 1.(10 points)The basic function of money is the enable buying to be separated from selling, thus permitting trade to take placewithout the so called double coincidence of barter. If a person has something to sell and wants something else 1return, it is not necessary to search for someone able and 2to make the desired exchange of items. The person canto anyone who wants to buy it and then use thesell the 3 item for general purchasing power—that is, “money”—proceeds to buy the desired item from anyone who wants to sell it.The importance of this function of money is 4 illustrated by the experience of Germany just after World War Ⅱ, 5paper money was 6 largely useless because, despite inflationary conditions, price controls were effectively 7 by theAmerican, French, and British armies of occupation. People had to8 to barter or to inefficient money substitutes.The result was to cut total output of the economy in half.

(40 points)Text 1Two related paradoxes also emerge from the same basic conception of the aesthetic experience. The first was givenextended consideration by Hegel, who argued roughly as follows: our sensuous attention and that gives to the workof art its peculiar individuality. Because it addresses itself to our sensory appreciation, the work of art is essentiallyconcrete, to be understood by an act of perception rather than by a process of discursive thought.At the same time, our understanding of the work of art is in part intellectual; we seek in it a conceptual content,which it presents to us in the form of an idea. One purpose of critical interpretation is to expound this idea in discursive form—to give the equivalent of the content of the work of art in another, nonsensuous idiom. Butcriticism can never succeed in this task, for, by separating the content from the particular form, it abolishes its individuality. The content presented then ceases to be the exact content of that work of art. In losing its individuality,the content loses its aesthetic reality; it thus ceases to be a reason for attending to the particular work and that firstattracted our critical attention. It cannot be this that we saw in the original work and that explained its power over us.For this content, displayed in the discursive idiom of the critical intellect, is no more than a husk, a discarded relicof a meaning that eluded us in the act of seizing it. If the content is to be the true object of aesthetic interest, it mustremain wedded to its individuality: it cannot be detached from its “sensuous embodiment” withou from itself. Content is, therefore, inseparable from form and form in turn inseparable from content. (It is the formthat it is only by virtue of the content that it embodies.)Hegel’s argument is the archetype of many, all aimed at showing that it is both necessary to distinguish form fromcontent and also impossible to do so. This paradox may be resolved by rejecting either of its premises, but, as withKant’s antinomy, neither premise seems dispensable. To suppose that content and form are inseparable is, in effect,to dismiss both ideas as illusory, since no two works of art can then share either a content or a form-the form beingdefinitive of each work’s individuality.In this case, no one could ever justify his interest in a work of art by reference to its meaning. The intensity ofaesthetic interest becomes a puzzling, and ultimately inexplicable, feature of our mental life. If, on the other hand,we insist that content and form are separable, we shall never be able to find, through a study of content, the reasonfor attending to the particular work of art that intrigues us. Every work of art stands proxy for its paraphrase. Animpassable gap then opens between aesthetic experience and its ground, and the claim that aesthetic experience isintrinsically valuable is thrown in doubt.21. Hegel argued that .[A]it is our sensuous appreciation that gives peculiar individuality to the work of art[B]it is the content of the work of art that holds our attention[C]the work of art cannot be understood without a process of logical thinking[D]the form of the work of art is what our sensuous appreciation concentrates on22. It can be inferred from this passage that .[A]the paradox that it is both necessary to distinguish form content and also impossible to do so cannot be resolved by rejecting its premises[B]both content and form of the work of art are illusory[C]the content and form of the work of art are separable[D]aesthetic experience is not intrinsically valuable23. Which of the following is NOT what Hegel believed?[A]The content and form of the work of art cannot be separated from each other.[B]The content of the work of art is always the true object of aesthetic interest.[C]The content presented without any individuality is not the content of the work of art.[D]The content understood by means of a process of discursive thought is no more than a husk.24. Premises that are related to each other seems to be dispensable because .[A]Kant thinks they are indispensable[B]either of them can resolve the paradox[C]the premises are separated[D]the premises can account for the theory25. This passage is mainly about .[A]the sensuous appreciation of art[B]the basic conception of the aesthetic experience[C]how to appreciate the work of art[D]the relationship between form and content of the work of artText 2Every country with a monetary system of its own has to have some kind of market in which dealers in bills, notes,and other forms of short term credit can buy and sell. The“money market”is a set of institutions or arrangements for handling what might be called wholesale transactions in money and short term credit. The need for such facilities arises in much the same way that a similar need does in connection with the distribution of any of the products of a diversified economy to their final users at the retail level. If the retailer is to provide reasonably adequate service to his customers, he must have active contacts with others who specialize in making or handling bulk quantities of whatever is his stock in trade. The money market is made up of specialized facilities of exactly this kind. It exists for the purpose of improving the ability of the retailers of financial services—commercial banks, savings institutions, investment houses, lending agencies, and even governments—to do their job. It has little if any contact with the individuals or firms who maintain accounts with these various retailers or purchase their securitiesor borrow from them.The elemental functions of a money market must be performed in any kind of modern economy, even one that is largely planned or socialist, but the arrangements in socialist countries do not ordinarily take the form of a market. Money markets exist in countries that use market processes rather than planned allocations to distribute most oftheir primary resources among alternative uses. The general distinguishing feature of a money market is that it relies upon open competition among those who are bulk suppliers of funds at any particular time and among those seeking bulk funds, to work out the best practicable distribution of the existing total volume of such funds.In their market transactions, those with bulk supplies of funds or demands for them, rely on groups of intermediaries who act as brokers or dealers. The characteristics of these middlemen, the services they perform, and their relationship to other parts of the financial vary widely from country to country. In many countries there is no single meeting place where the middlemen get together, yet in most countries the contacts among all participantsare sufficiently open and free to assure each supplier or user of funds that he will get or pay a price that fairly reflects all of the influences (including his own) that are currently affecting the whole supply and the whole demand.In nearly all cases, moreover, the unifying force of competition is reflected at any given moment in a common price (that is, rate of interest) for similar transactions. Continuous fluctuations in the money market rates of interest result from changes in the pressure of available supplies of funds upon the market and in the pull of current demandsupon the market.26. The first paragraph is mainly about .A. the definition of money marketB. the constitution of a money marketC. the basic functions of a money marketD. the general feature of a money market27. According to this passage, the money market .A. provides convenient services to its customersB. has close contact with the individuals or firms seeking fundsC. maintains accounts with various retailers of financial servicesD. is made up of institutions who specialize in handling wholesale monetary transactions28. Which of the following statements concerning money market is not true according to this passage?A. Money market does not exist in planned economies.B. Money market has been established in some socialist countries.C. Money market encourages open competition among bulk suppliers of funds.D. Money market relies upon market processes to distribute funds to final users.29. The author uses the example of middleman to show .A. market transactions are important in different countriesB. dealers are needed in doing businessC. middlemen can play great role in different transactions and different countries.D. middlemen in different countries have different actions in business.30. According to this passage, .A. brokers usually perform the same kinds of services to their customersB. brokers have little contact with each otherC. open competition tends to result in a common price for similar transactions at any given momentD. changes in the pressure of available supplies of funds upon market tends to maintain a common price forsimilar transactionsText 3Environmental issues raise a host of difficult ethical questions, including the ancient one of the nature of intrinsic value. Whereas many philosophers in the past have agreed that human experiences have intrinsic value and the utilitarians at least have always accepted that the pleasures and pains of nonhuman animals are of some intrinsic significance, this does not show why it is so bad if dodos become extinct or a rain forest is cut down. Are thesethings to be regretted only because of the loss to humans or other sentient creatures? Or is there more to it than that? Some philosophers are now prepared to defend the view that trees, rivers, species (considered apart from the individual animals of which they consist), and perhaps ecological systems as a whole have a value independent ofthe instrumental value they may have for humans or other sentient creatures.Our concern for the environment also raises the question of our obligations to future generations. How much do we owe to the future? From a social contract view of ethics or for the ethical egoist, the answer would seem to be: nothing. For we can benefit them, but they are unable to reciprocate. Most other ethical theories, however, do give weight to the interests of coming generations. Utilitarians, for one, would not think that the fact that members offuture generations do not exist yet is any reason for giving less consideration to their interests than we give to our own, provided only that we are certain that they will exist and will have interests that will be affected by what wedo. In the case of, say, the storage of radioactive wastes, it seems clear that what we do will indeed affect the interests of generations to come.The question becomes much more complex, however, when we consider that we can affect the size of future generations by the population policies we choose and the extent to which we encourage large or small families.Most environmentalists believe that the world is already dangerously overcrowded. This may well be so, but thenotion of overpopulation conceals a philosophical issue that is ingeniously explored by Derek Parfit in Reasons and Persons (1984). What is optimum population? Is it that population size at which the average level of welfare will beas high as possible? Or is it the size at which the total amount of welfare—the average multiplied by the number ofpeople—is as great as possible? Both answers lead to counterintuitive outcomes, and the question remains one ofthe most baffling mysteries in applied ethics.31. The first paragraph is mainly about .[A]the intrinsic value of human experiences[B]the intrinsic value of the experiences of nonhuman animals[C]the intrinsic value of ecological system as a whole[D]an ancient ethical question about the nature of intrinsic value32. , we owe nothing to the future generations.[A]In the author’s opinion[B]From a social contrast view of ethics[C]For a utilitarian[D]For most environmentalists33. Population policy we take should be considered .[A]positive [B]negative [C]complex [D]reasonable34. According to this passage, optimum population .[A]refers to the population size at which the average level of welfare will be as high as possible[B]refers to the population size at which the total amount of welfare will be as great as possible[C]is a difficult philosophical issue which remains to be resolved in the future[D]is a difficult philosophical issue which Derek Parfit has successfully settled in Reasons and Persons35. The proper title for this passage should be .[A] A Mystery in Applied Ethics[B]Our Obligations to Future Generations[C]Environmental Ethics[D]Environmental issuesText 4Perhaps only a small boy training to be a wizard at the Hogwarts school of magic could cast a spell so powerful asto create the biggest book launch ever. Wherever in the world the clock strikes midnight on June 20th, his followerswill flock to get their paws on one of more than 10m copies of “Harry P otter and the Order of the Phoenix”.Bookshops will open in the middle of the night and delivery firms are drafting in extra staff and bigger trucks. Related toys, games, DVDs and other merchandise will be everywhere. There will be no escaping Pottermania.Yet Mr Potter’s world is a curious one, in which things are often not what they appear. While an excitable media(hereby including The Economist, happy to support such a fine example of globalisation) is helping to hype thelaunch of J.K. Rowling’s fifth novel, about the most adventurous thing that the publishers (Scholastic in Americain English elsewhere) have organised is a reading by Ms Rowling in London’s Royal and Britain’s BloomsburyAlbert Hall, to be broadcast as a live webcast. Hollywood, which owns everything else to do with Harry Potter, saysit is doing even less. Incredible as it may seem, the guardians of the brand say that, to protect the Potter franchise,they are trying to maintain a low profile. Well, relatively low.Ms Rowling signed a contract in 1998 with Warner Brothers, part of AOL Time Warner, giving the studio exclusivefilm, licensing and merchandising rights in return for what now appears to have been a steal: some $500,000. Warner licenses other firms to produce goods using Harry Potter characters or images, from which Ms Rowlinggets a big enough cut that she is now wealthier than the queen—if you believe Britain’s Sunday Times rich list.The process is self generating: each book sets the stage for a film, which boosts book sales, which lifts sales ofPotter products.Globally, the first four Harry Potter books have sold some 200m copies in 55 languages; the two movies havegrossed over $1.8 billion at the box office. This is a stunning success by any measure, especially as Ms Rowling haslong demanded that Harry Potter should not be over commercialised. In line with her wishes, Warner says it isbeing extraordinarily careful, at least by Hollywood standards, about what it licenses and to whom. It imposedtough conditions on Coca Cola, insisting that no Harry Potter images should appear on cans, and is now in theprocess of making its licensing programme even more restrictive. Coke may soon be considered too mass market tocarry the brand at all.The deal with Warner ties much of the merchandising to the films alone. There are no officially sanctioned productsrelating to “Order of the Phoenix”; nor yet for “Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”, t book, which is due out in June 2004. Warner agrees that Ms Rowling’s creation is a different sort of comme property, one with long-term potential that could be damaged by a typical Hollywood marketing blitz, says DianeNelson, the studio’s global brand manager for Harry Potter. It is vital, she adds, that with more to come, readers ofy by fans isthe books are not alienated. “The evidence from our market research is that enthusiasm for the propertnot waning.”36. When the author says “there will be no escaping Potter mania”, he implies that .[A]Harry Potter’s appeal for the readers is simply irresistible[B]it is somewhat irrational to be so crazy about the magic boy[C]craze about Harry Potter will not be over in the near future[D]Hogwarts school of magic will be the biggest attraction world over37. Ms Rowling’s reading in London’s Royal Albert Hall is mentioned to show .[A]publishers are really adventurous in managing the Potter’s business[B]businesses are actually more credible than media in Potter’s world[C]the media are promoting Pottermania more actively than Hollywood[D]businesses involved with Potter are moving along in an unusual way38. The author believes that .[A]Britain’s Sunday Times rich list is not very convincing as it sounds[B]Time Warner’s management of licenses is a bit over commercialised[C]other firms may produce goods using Harry Potter images at will[D]what Ms Rowling got in return for her offering to Warner is a real bargain39. Paragraph 4 intends mainly to show Warner’s .[A]determination to promote Potter[B]consistence in conducting busines[C]high regard for Ms Rowling’s request[D]careful restrictions on licensing to Coco-Cola40. It can be concluded from the last paragraph that .[A]products of Potter films have brought enormous profits to Warner[B]current Hollywood’s marketing of Potter may damage its potential[C]readers could get tired of Ms Rowling’s writings sooner or later[D]Warner will maintain the same strategy with Potter in futurePart BSample 1Directions:In the following article, some sentences have been removed.

(41) Small businesses, defined as those with fewer than 100 workers, now employ 60 percent of the workforce and expected to generate half of all new jobs between now and the year 2,000.(42)Too many of these pioneers, however, will blaze ahead unprepared. Idealists will overestimate the clamor for their products or fail to factor in the competition. (43). Midcareer executives, forced by a takeover or a restructuring toquit the corporation and find another way to support themselves, may save the idea of being their own boss but may forget that entrepreneurs must also. at least for a while, be bookkeepers and receptionists, too.(44) By 1995, morethan 60 of those 100 start ups, 77 percent of the companies surveyed were still alive. Most credited their successin large part to having picked a business they already were comfortable in Eighty percent had worked with the same product or service in their last jobs.Thinking through an enterprise before the launch is obviously critical.(45) you must tenderly monitor its pulse, intheir zeal, to expand. Small business owners often ignore early warning signs of a stagnant market or of decaying profitability. They hopefully four more and more into the enterprise, preferring not to acknowledge eroding profitmargins that means the market for their ingenious service or product has evaporated, or that they must cut the payroll or vacate their lavish offices.To snatch opportunity, you must spot the signals that it is time to conquer the new markets, add products or perhaps franchise your hot ideas.[A]Only when the financial well runs dry do they see the seriousness of the illness, and by then the patient is usually too far gone to save.[B]But many entrepreneurs forget that a firm’s health in its infancy may be little indication of how well it will age . [C]Frequent checks of your firm’s vital signs will also guide you to a sensible rate of growth.[D]Some 1.2 million small forms have opened their doors over the past 6 years of economic growth, and 1989will see an additional 200,000 entrepreneurs striking off on their own.[E]According to small Business Administration data, 24 of every 100 businesses starting out today are likely to disappear in two years, and 27 more will have shut their doors four years from now.[F]But to a far greater extent than most Americans realize, the economy’s vitality depends on the fortunes of tiny shops and restaurants, neighborhood services and are factories.[G]Nearly everyone will underestimate, often fatally, the capital that success requiresSample 2Directions:The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order.For questions 41-45, you are required to reorganizethese paragraphs into a coherent article by choosing from the list A-G to fill in each numbered box.

It is one of the best bonds, both of chastity and obedience, in the wife, if she think her husband wise; which she will never do, if shefind him jealous.[B]He that has wife and children has given hostages to fortune; for they are impediments to great enterprises,either of virtue or mischief. Certainly the best works, and of greatest merit for the public, have proceeded from the unmarried or childless men; which both in affection and means, have married and endowed the public. Yet it weregreat reason that those that have children, should have greatest care of future times; unto which they know theymust transmit their dearest pledges.[C]Certainly wife and children are a kind of discipline of humanity; and single men, though they may be manytimes more charitable, because their means are less exhaust, yet, on the other side, they are more cruel and hardhearted (good to make severe inquisitors), because their tenderness is not so oft called upon. Grave natures, ledby custom, and therefore constant, are commonly loving husbands, as was said of Ulysses。

There are two choices, throwing them away or recycling. Throwing away a metal beverage (饮料) container wastes as much energy as filling a can with gasoline and pouring half out. Besides wasting energy, throwing away bottles and cans causes pollution, increases the volume of solid wastes, and uses up natural resources. To control these problems, only nine states have adopted bottle laws. The United States government should require every state to have a bottle law or constitute (制定) a national bottle law.To understand how a bottle law can help, you must know how it works. When consumers buy canned or bottled beverages at the store, they pay deposits. This deposit can range from twenty to fifty cents per bottled beverages at the store, they pay deposits. This deposit can range from twenty to fifty cents per bottle or can. In order to get this deposit back, the bottles and cans must be returned to supermarkets after they are emptied. The supermarkets then return the bottles andcans to their manufacturers for either reuse or recycling.Bottle laws are currently effective in Oregon, Vermont, Maine, Michigan, Iowa, Connecticut, Delaware, Massachusetts, and New York. These laws work largely because the general public supports them. A recent poll (民意测验) of Americans revealed that 73 percent support bottle laws. This support bottle laws. This support undoubtedly results from people’s concern about pollution and our planet’s limited resources.31. What is the bad thing if one throws away metal cans after drinking?A) Wasting energy. C) Pouring half of the gasoline out.B) Going against the national law. D) Causing personal inconvenience.32. Throwing away metal containers people will affect the environment by ________.A) preserving natural resources C) using natural resourcesB) recycling them D) causing pollution33. What does the author suggest in order to solve the problems of cans and bottles?A) Putting the bottle laws into effect.B) Preventing people from pouring out beverage.C) Making a national bottle law.D) Having the manufacturers recycle the containers.34. Who would pay the deposits for the beverage containers?A) The supermarket. C) The consumer.B) The manufacturer. D) The government.35. According to the author, a bottle law can work if _________.A) the consumers, supermarkets and manufacturers make joint effortsB) the manufacturers recycle the empty containersC) the consumers pay depositsD) the nine states support itPassage TwoAmericans usually consider themselves a friendly people. Their friendships, however, tend to be shorter and more casual than friendships among people from other cultures. It is not uncommon for Americans to have only one close friend during their lifetime, and consider other “friends” to be just social acquaintances. This attitude probably has something to do with American mobility and the fact that Americans do not like to be dependent on other people. They tend to “compartmentalize” (划分) friendships, having “friends at work”, “friends on the softball team”, “family friends”, etc.Because the United States is a highly active society, full of movement and change, people always seem to be on the go. In this highly charged atmosphere, Americans can sometimes seem brusque (无礼的) or impatient. They want to get to know you as quickly as possible and then move on to something else. Sometimes, early on, they will ask you questions that you may feel are very personal. No insult is intended; the questions usually grow out of their genuine interest or curiosity, and their impatience to get to the heart of the matter. And the same goes for you. If you do not understand certain American behavior or you want to know more about them, do not hesitate to ask them questions about themselves. Americans are usually eager to explain all about their country or anything “American” in which you may be interested. So much so in fact that you may become tired of listening. It doesn't matter, because Americans tend to be uncomfortable with silence during a conversation. They would rather talk about the weather or the latest sports scores,for example, than deal with silence.On the other hand, don’t expect Americans to be knowledgeable about international geography or world affairs, unless those subjects directly involve the Unite States. Because the United States is not surrounded by many other nations, some Americans tend to ignore the rest of the world.36. The general topic of the passage is________.A. American societyB. American cultureC. Americans’ personalityD. America ns’ activities37. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships among Americans tend to be casual.B. Americans do not like to depend on other people.C. Americans always seem to be on the go.D. Americans know a lot about international affairs.38. The phrase “highly charged” ( Paragraph 2) most probably means_______.A. highly responsibleB. extremely freeC. full of mobility and changeD. very cheerful39. It can be inferred from the passage that__________.A. Americans’ character is affected by their social and geographical environmentB. Americans want to participate in all kinds of activitiesC. curiosity is characteristic of AmericansD. Americans do not know how to deal with silence40. According to the passage, Americans tend to ignore the rest of the world because________.A. they are too proud of themselvesB. they are not interested in other countriesC. they are too busy to learn about other countriesD. their country does not have many neighboring nationsPassage 3Sailors, and Fishermen in particular, have always been extremely Superstitious, This is hardly surprising when one considers the changeable nature of the sea where, even today with sophisticated weather-forecasting techniques, a sudden storm can blow up quite unexpectedly. In the days before radio and engines, where there could be no long-distance communication with another ship or land, and when sails were the only means of movement, it was only natural for the sailor to take every precaution to avoid offending the gods who controlled the sea.One way of pleasing these gods was to make an annual offering. This custom survives in the ceremony of blessing the sea, which can still been seen once a year in some fishing ports. Next to pleasing the sea-gods, the most important thing for the sailor was to know that his boat was free from evil influences. The time to make sure of this was at the launching ceremony. It is clear that the well-known custom of launching a ship by breaking a bottle of champagne against the side goes back a very long way The purpose of it is to keep away evil spirits rather than to ask for the sea-god's protection.Starting on a new voyage or fishing trip was a dangerous business at the best of times. Once the fishermen had set out for his ship, he dared not, on any account, look back. It was bad luck even to call after him, so if he had forgotten anything, someone had to run after him and put the object into his hands. Bad luck could also result from some chance meeting on the way to theboats. In some countries it was considered particularly unlucky to meet a priest, a rabbit or a woman. In such an event, the only thing to do was to turn back and sail next day.41. What made sailors and fishermen superstitious?A. Their own changeable nature.B. The unreliable nature of the sea.C. The difficulty of communicating with land.D. The inadequate techniques of weather forecasting.42. The fishermen tried to please the sea gods by________.A. giving them presents every yearB. going long distances with only sailsC. cleaning the fishing ports every yearD. avoiding communicating with other ships43. Sailors broke a bottle of champagne against the side of the boat__________.A. to protect it from bad spiritsB. to ask fo r the sea gods’ protectionC. so that the ship could go a very long wayD. so that they could start drinking and eating44. What happened if a fisherman forgot something when starting on a trip?A. He went back for it.B. Someone called him back for it.C. He looked behind him and tried to find it.D. Someone gave it to him without speaking.45. If a fisherman met a woman on the way to his boat,____________.A. he wouldn’t blame herB. he should turn his back on herC. he wouldn’t go fishing that da yD. he should come back the next dayPassage 4Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects.I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm had led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people's observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline but hard training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.46. The first paragraph tells us the author__________________ .A) was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood B) lost his hearing when he was a childC) didn't like his brothers and sisters D) was born to a naturalist's family47. The author can't remember his relatives clearly because ____________.A) he didn't live very long with themB) the family was extremely largeC) he was too young when he lived with themD) he was fully absorbed in observing nature48. It can be inferred from the passage that the author was ___________.A) a scientist as well as a naturalist.B) not a naturalist but a scientistC) no more than a born naturalist D) first of all a scientist49. The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he____________ .A) has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmeticB) lacks some of the qualities required of a scientistC) just reads about other people's observations and discoveriesD) comes up with solutions in a most natural way50. According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be _________.A) full of ambition B) knowledgeable C) full of enthusiasm D) self-disciplinedPart IV Cloze test (10%)Shopping habits in the United States have changed greatly in the last quarter of the 20th century. 51 in the 1900s most American towns and cities had a Main Street. Main Street was always in the heart of a town. This street was 52 on both sides with many 53 businesses. Here, shoppers walked into stores to look at all sorts of merchandise: clothing, furniture, hardware, groceries. 54 , some shops offered 55 . These shops included drugstores, restaurants, shoe-repair stores, and barber or hairdressing shops. 56 in the 1950s, a change began to 57 . Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street 58 too few parking places were 59 shoppers. Because the streets were crowded, merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces 60 the city limits. Open space is what their car driving customers needed.51.A. As early as B. Early C.

Such children do all their normal lessons at home, often under the guidance of a parent. The first thing to consider is whether this is legal or not. In most countries it is, so long as parents can prove that their children are receiving an adequate education, equal to that provided by their state educational system. The next consideration is whether the parents have the time, self-discipline, intelligence and patience to teach their own child week after week, day in and day out, for hours on end. Then there is the problem of what will be taught, and how.Part VI Writing (15%)Directions: You are to write in no less than 120 words about the title “The Importance of Economy”.
