Of course, you save time by reading fast, but this is not the main reason for fast reading. The main reason is that you understand better what you are reading when you read fast.As your eyes move along the line of print, they make fixations (注视). It is important that you see several words at a fixation. It is also important that your eyes leave a group of words quickly and move on to another group. The number of letters or words that you see at a fixation iscalled your eye span. Pay attention to improving your eye span so that you can read more words at a fixation.Some people read very slowly one word at a time. Others keep their eyes on the same group of words for a long time. This is a bad habit in reading. If you have this habit, you should try to break it.1.

Fishing with a hook and line for fun is called sport fishing.Perhaps the greatest appeal in fishing for fun is the opportunities it offers to get outdoors, to enjoy the company of friends and to use new and various skills to catch the fish.In fishing,a set of ethic exists based on consideration for others. One job is to take no more fish than one needs. Some of the best fishers catch fish for the spirit of it and then release them unharmed for some else to catch.

Of course, the younger generation's love of traditional culture does not happen randomly, but it is a natural result of their hope to live a cultural life. Young people are also attracted by the intrinsic and unique charm of countless traditional culturaltreasures waiting to be discovered.Social media platforms have became vital for museums to promote themselves. Douyin's 2023 Museum Date Report states that the total number of views of museum-related videos on the platform last year reached about 51.3 billion,66 times the annual number of museum visitors nationwide , which in turn brings life to traditional Chinese culture again.Previously, young people paid little attention to traditional Chineseculture, but now it's different, There are many media reports that inheritors of traditional cultural treasures now talk widely about their work on different media platforms, which has indirectly encouraged more young people to learn about and carry on the treasures.31. What does the word "subject’, in the third line of the passage refer to?A. New media technologiesB. Unprecedented waysC.Traditional Chinese cultureD.Young people32. The underlined word“charm"in the first paragraph probably means__A. attractionB. confidenceC.loveD.treasurePassage 3关于巨石阵,暂无,更新及答案关“学硕学堂”Passage 4Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put out water supply in danger but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(铺砌)a road can lead to less usable fresh water. A major Part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers, it come from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺).Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱)than areas with more rainfall but in any case goodmanagement can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference ,too .In the United States. A family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher(洗碗机) only when it is full . Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.41.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. Why throwing rubbish can put our water supply in dangerB. How we affect our water supplyC. How building roads leads to water shortageD. Why water comes from underground42.Which of the following can help tackle water shortage according to the second paragraph?A. Changing our water needsB. Preventing droughtsC. More rainfallD. Good management43.The underlined word “dripping” in the last paragraph probably means___.A. supplying clean waterB. producing small drops of waterC. containing large amounts of waterD. moving on the surface of water44.What is the topic of the last paragraph?A. How to conserve water at homeB.How to repair leaking tapsC. How to wash drinking glassesD.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of then there are 4choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Passage 1Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence of sport ---- the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself, he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for entire nation's hopes, dreams and reputation.A good example is the football World Cup. Football is third world's most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he' 11 think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map.Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinean really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it's nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.41. What is the author' s main purpose in the passage?A. To explain the role of sport.B. To compare Scotland with Argentina.C. To show that Argentina is better than all others.D. To prove that football is the world' s most important sport.42.

Nations that give much attention to international competitions areworld-famous in many ways.Passage 2Most cities and/or states in the U. S. collect a sales tax on almost everything you buy. You must ask when you move into a new community how much the local sales tax is, and what items are and are not taxable. Both taxable items and the amount of tax vary considerably from place, from one of two percent in some places up to eight or ten in others. The New York City sales tax, for examples, is currently 8%, so if you buy a pair of $ 40 shoes you will actually have to pay $ 43.20. This makes paying and getting correct change much more difficult (not to mention making everything more expensive). We say in America that only two things in life are unavoidable: one is death and the other taxes.Another thing that makes money exchanges more complicated is tipping. The Chinese people have happily put an end to tipping, but Westerners are still plagued with this indignity. Waiters and waitresses, cab drivers, hotel bellboys, barbers and hairdressers and all sorts of other people must be tipped. Their employers give them low wages because it is expected that you, the customer, will make up the difference. If you don't, the service person can't earn a living. Tipping also varies from place to place, generally in the area of 15% of your bill (before taxes), but again you should ask local residents whom to tip and how much.There is another kind of tipping as well. You are generally expected to give something (either cash or a bottle of whisky) to the mailman and to your building "super" at Christmas time. You should discuss this also with neighbors and colleagues.46. The main idea of this passage is ______________.A. shopping and tippingB. sales and shoppingC. sales taxes and tippingD. sales taxes and people47. According to the passage, if you buy a pair of $ 50 shoes in the New YorkCity, you pay extra ____________as sales tax.A. $4.5B. $4C. $5D. $5.548.

According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. The Chinese people have to pay tips in western countries.B. The westerners don't have to pay high tips in their own country.C. Barbers, hotel bellboys and all sorts of other people can earn a living if they are not tipped.D. Tipping varies from place to place, generally in the area of 20% of your bill.50.

S.Passage 3In the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs before he can learn to walk, the child must physiologically be capable of producing and experiencing particular emotions before these emotions can be modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes place. One kind of learning is called "classical conditioning''. This occurs when one event or stimulus is consistently paired with or followed by, a re- ward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to associates his mother's face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort. Negative emotions are learned in a similar fashion.The second kind of learning is called "operant conditioning". This occurs when an individual learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments. For example, if a mother always attends to her baby when he cries and cuddles him until he is quiet, she may teach him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to have his mother more.Every day, we grow and have new experiences. We constantly learn by reading, watching television, interacting with other people, and so forth. This learning affects our emotions. Why is it that we learn to like some people and dislike others? If a person is nice to us, cares about us, we learn to associate this person with positive feelings, such as joy, happiness, and friendliness. On the other hand, if a person is mean to us, does not care about us, and even deliberately does things to harm us, we learn to associate this person with negative feelings, such as unhappiness, discomfort, and anger.51. The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to____________.A. teach children how to learn to produce and experience certain emotionsB. give the general reader an account of two basic kinds of learningC. give parents some advice on how to modify their children's emotionsthrough learningD. discuss with psychologists how positive and negative feelings areproduced52. If your jokes often find a ready echo in a person, you will learn through ______________that telling jokes to this person is fun, and you will try with greater efforts to be humorous in his presence.A. classical conditioningB. neither of themC. operant conditioningD. some other sorts of conditioning53. If a child is bitten or startled several times by a dog, he may learn to associate furry animals with pain or startle and thus develop a fear of furry animals. This is a typical example of learning through____________.A. classical conditioningB. both of themC. operant conditioningD. neither of them54. In the third paragraph, the author is_____________.A. discussing how we grow and have new experiences every dayB. talking about learning to modify emotions through operant conditioningC. concentrating on learning by reading, watching television, interacting with people, and so onD. using examples to further illustrate learning through classical conditioning55. In the following paragraphs the author will most probably go on to discuss______________.A. definitions of positive feelings and negative feelingsB. the third kind of learningC. further examples of learning through operant conditioningD. none of the abovePassage 4You are a German living in Berlin. One day you're walking down in a street minding your own business, when suddenly a stranger approaches with a smile on his face. After stopping you, he holds a small electronic device close to his face and speaks slowly into it, saying, in English: "Can you tell me where I can buy some sauerkraut?" What should you do? (a) Run away'; (b) Call the police; or, (c) Listen closely for the device to say, in German: "Konnen Sie mir bitte sagen, wo ich Sauerkraut kaufen kann?"The most appropriate response would be (c). because the person in front of you is only a tourist trying to enjoy himself. The device is said to be the world's first portable translator------- a hand-held microcomputer that at the same time converts one spoken language into another. The four-pound, battery-operated product is called the V oice, and it is the creation of Advanced Products and Technologies, an American electronic company. When the V oice is introduced in the United States in late April ----- at a price of $1,500 -- it will be capable of converting spoken English into Italian, German, French and Spanish. The product comes with separate cartridges (盒式存贮器) for each of the four languages, which can be changed when the user travels from one country to another. The item will be sold in Europe soon after the U.S. introduction, with cartridges that convert Italian, German, French and Spanish into English.The voice uses a microchip (微型集成块) and artificial intelligence to translate languages. It is started by voice command and produces voice output through a built-in speaker. When the user makes a statement or asks a question, the Voice immediately repeats what has been said in another language.56. The stranger holding the V oice seems to be____________.A. asking for some informationB. greeting the GermanC. amusing himselfD. practicing his German57. The German sentence "konnen Sie...kann?" means_____________.A. "Why don't you ask the policeman?"B. "Would you listen closely for the device to say?"C. "Can you say it again, please?"D.
