One day she decided that she wan ted tobecome a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the m iddle of thenineteenth century. After writing many letters asking for admission (录取) tomedical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia . She wasso determined that she taught school and gave music lessons to get money for the cost of schooling.In 1849, after graduation from medical school. she decided to furt her her education in Paris.

Because they are fun, and a lot more besides. F ollowing rules…planning your next move…acting as a team member …these are all “game” ideas that you will come across throughout y our life. Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are en tertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate li fe into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules t hey will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking t urns and cooperating(合作). Many children’s games have a practical side. Children arou nd the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a ga me called bones, which sharpens the hand-eye coordination (协调) needed in hunting. Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring ath letes from around the world together to take part in friendly comp etition. People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gol d medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olym pic win can mean so much. Sports are also an event that unite s(团结) people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it—some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to sprea d hope through soccer.

Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes、To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence .On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings、Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment、This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with、The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence、Thus if we take two unrelated people at random(随机地) from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different、If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent aseach other、Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birthImagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments、We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring、We would soon find differences in intelligence developing and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part、This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.1、The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him( )A、at birthB、through educationC、both at birth and through educationD、by his experience 2、If a child is born with low intelligence, he can( )A、never become a genius without proper trainingB、still become a genius if given special educationC、become more intelligent if trained in rich surroundingsD、never get more intelligent all his life3、Which pair of the following people, according to the author, is most likely to have similar degree of intelligence( )A、Two children of the same parentsB、Husband and wifeC、Two close friends in the same neighborhoodD、Two room-mates in the same neighborhood4、The example of the twins going to university and to a factory separately shows( )A、the important role of their intelligenceB、the role environment plays in intelligence developmentC、the importance of their social positionsD、the part that birth pays in intelligence development5、The best title of this passage might be( )A、Who Are More IntelligentB、Education and EnvironmentC、Dependence on EnvironmentD、What Determines Intelligence2、The human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of itThis helps us adjust to the outside world、Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn’t know what’s happening、But we pay for our sensitivity、We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body、The history of torture ( 折磨 ) is based on the human body being open to painBut there is a way to handle pain、Look at the Indian fakir ( 苦行僧) who sits on a bed of nails、Fakirs can put a needle fight through an arm, and feel no pain、This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with painThe big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it、If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain、By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation ( 感觉 ), we can handle the pain without falling apart、After all, althoughpain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life6、The human body has developed a system of nerves that enables us to( )A、stay relaxedB、avoid painC、stand tortureD、feel pain7、What does the writer mean by saying "we pay for our sensitivity" in the first paragraph?( )A、We have to take care of our sense of painB、We suffer from our sense of feelingC、We should try hard to resist painD、We are hurt when we feel pain8、When the author mentions the Indian fakir, he shows that( )A、fakirs possess magic powerB、Indians are not afraid of painC、people can learn to cope with painD、some people are born without a sense of pain9、What is essential for people to stand pain according to the writer( )A、Their relaxationB、Their interestC、Their nervesD、Their attitude10、The author believes that( )A、feeling pain is part of our lifeB、pain should be avoided at all costsC、feeling pain can be an interesting thingD、magic power is essential for reducing pain四、英译汉(每题2分，共10分)1、He also estimates that a rope of spider silk as thick as one pencil could pull a large ship through the water2、It is so exasperating listening to teachers, colleagues, parents, and other “experts” who pretend to have all the answers3、Thank heaven that, while good looks may awaken one’s attention, a true sense of a person’s beauty comes out in stages4、But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is as important as that of a professor5、As the population grows larger and larger in the modern world, we would die if we did not have enough food五、汉译英(每题2分，共10分)1、如果你当时对我讲实话，我原本是可以原谅你的2、工作没完成，她不敢回家3、与其和他们去购物,我倒宁愿留在家里读点书4、失业工人离开工厂时抱怨他们所处的困境5、政府非常重视环境保护。

Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. (30 points)Passage 1As a Canadian bilingual (双语的) teacher, I agree that the Canadian bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. However, Mr. Whelpton’s suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers.Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they “understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom”which is a rather sterile explanation. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centered manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests.Mr. Whelpton’s third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills with others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary? Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Therefore the concept of Cooperative Learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they cooperate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information.81. How would you describe the writer’s style?A. Written in an academic style.B. Written in a journalistic style.C. Written in a personal style.D. Written on the basis of widespread research in the area.82. How would you describe the writer’s attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programs?A. Balanced.B. Unenthusiastic.C. Supportive.D. Critical.83. In Paragraph 1 the writer ________.A. agrees completely with Mr. Whelpton’s argumentB. agrees partially with Mr. Whelpton’s argumentC. disagrees completely with Mr. Whelpton’s argumentD. is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelpton’s argument84. In Paragraph 2 “sterile” is closest in meaning to ________.A. uninformativeB. unusualC. exaggeratedD. uninspiring85. According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success ________.A. because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB. because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the same levelC. because the students can use their first language freelyD. because they work towards real life goalsPassage 2The great river Nile (尼罗河) flows gently in its course through the hot plains in the first half of the year but later on when the melting (融化) snows and the rains on the mountains far to the south swell its tributaries (支流), the Nile overflows (泛滥). It spreads rich, muddy (泥泞的) soil from Ethiopia over its valley and forms deep stretches of green, fertile (肥沃的) lands along its banks. The settlers found that in the soft rich earth wheat and other crops could be planted, even without the use of the plough, and they began to make many settlements of farmers.In these early times they did not of course understand why the river overflowed each year. But they knew that their crops and, therefore, their lives, depended upon its magic (魔术似的) floods, and they explained the miracle as the work of gods.But there came some years when there was a “bad Nile”. Sometimes the floods were not full and did not bring enough soil; the crops were poor and the people starved. At other times the waters were so great that they destroyed houses and villages, and drowned (淹死) men and beasts (牲畜). It took perhaps many centuries before the farmers learned how to control the Nile waters.Wise men among them watching the position of the stars year by year found that they could predict when the annual rising of t he Nile would come. Thus they began to learn about the scientific study of the sun, earth, moon, and stars and could make a calendar of the years. They also learnt how to measure out the land so that it could be divided fairly again after the boundaries of the farms had been washed away by great floods. In this way, there came about ancient knowledge of engineering and of geometry.86. We can learn from this passage that the Nile is ______.A. always a gentle flowing riverB. hot in the first half of the year but cold later onC. likely to overflow at unknown times of the yearD. a life-giving river that makes the land rich87. The settlers began farming in the Nile valley because ______.A. they discovered that their crops could grow well in the soil thereB. they did not realize that the river would overflow sometimesC. they found many settlements of farmers in the valleyD. they realized that their crops depended on the floods88. The Nile was called the “bad Nile” at times because _______.A. the floods made the river difficult to controlB. the floods could only be predicted by wise menC. the river sometimes flooded too little or too muchD. the river took the good soil away to Ethiopia89. The Egyptians of that time learned to predict the floods by _______.A. studying the flooding of the Nile year by yearB. observing the position of the stars year by yearC. inventing some maps of the Nile floodsD. developing engineering and measuring land90. According to the passage, the ancient Egyptians ________.A. had studied the stars and made their own calendar of the yearsB. watched the fall and rise of the Nile and learned how to control the floodC. discovered science before the peoples of other nationsD. learned a lot about geometry and spread the knowledge all over the worldPassage 3A department store’s inputs include the land upon which the building is located; the labor of the employees; capital in the form of building, equipment and products they sell; and the management skills of the store managers. On a farm, the operation system is the transformat ion that occurs when a farmer’s inputs (land, equipment, labor, etc.) are changed into such outputs (产出) as corn, wheat or milk. The exact process is different from industry to industry, but it is an economic phenomenon that exists in every industry. Economists refer to this change of resources into goods and services as the production function. For all operation systems, the general goal is to create some kind of value-added outputs that are worth more to consumers than just the sum of the individual inputs. To the consumers, the resulting products offer usefulness due to the form, the time, or the place they are available.However, the process is subject to unpredictable fluctuations (波动). Unplanned or uncontrollable influences may cause the actual output to be different from planned output. Unpredictable fluctuations can arise from external problems (fire, floods or lightning, for example) or from internal problems that are part of the process that change them into useful goods. Variability of equipment, material imperfections, and human mistakes all affect output quality. In fact, unpredictable variations are the rule rather than the exception in the production processes; therefore, reducing variation becomes a major management task.The function of the feedback (反馈) is to provide information connection. Without some feedback of information, management personnel cannot control operations because they don’t know the results of their directions.91.What is included in a store ’s inputs?A. Its equipment.B. Its workers.C. Its managers.D. Its departments.VII.

It’s nothing like you!M: Well, this is the new me—changed by things I’ve learned at college. Studying is helping me find success in my life. I’ve made other changes too.Q: What are the speakers talking about?M: Would you mind if I put some small trees and plants in our house?W: What’s the point? Go outside if you want to see nature. Oh…but if you insist, go ahead and put them in our room, or in our kids’ room if they want.Q: What is the relationship between the two speakers?M: There are some scientific achievements that I wish we could take back.W: I feel the same. And I think the splitting of the atom, which led to the atomic bomb, is an achievement of this sort.Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?M: Are you still reading about Bill Gates? After you’re done, do you think I can read that book?W: Sorry. I already promised to lend it to our daughter. Talk to her. She’ll be back from work shortly.Q: What is the relationship between the two speakers?W: I can’t believe it! There’s a man from the government here telling us to paint our home! He says it’s too ugly! What nerve!M: That’s unbelievable. What right does he have to tell us what our home should look like?Q: What can be inferred from the conversation?W: I was able to lose a lot of weight by eating better, but I’m still weak and soft.M: You look all right to me. But you could probably benefit from lifting the weights in the gym. Or better, take up swimming.Q: According to the man, what is the best thing for the woman to do?M: How is it that you’re here at school? You couldn’t have gotten a scholarship.W:Well, I did, actually. But it only pays a small bit, most of which I send to my sister. I have a job that pays for most of my studies.Q: How does the woman pay for her education?M: I’ve been thinking about retiring soon. Maybe then I can do the traveling I want.W: That’s a great idea. But before you do, let’s save up money for one more year. OK? I’d like to go with you, and we need money to spend.Q: What is the most probable relationship between the two speakers?W: What do you think is the greatest achievement in the history of science?M: I believe it’s the moon landing. Nothing else has captured the imaginations of people around the world.Q: What can we learn from the conversation?W: Why should I care about animal species dying out?M: Animals depend on each other. And so the death of one leads to the death of others. Someday, people will die because we fail to protect other animals.Q: Why should people protect other animals?II. Understanding Long ConversationsLong Conversation 1M: Apples, tomatoes, pears… What do all these foods have in common? Water, that’s what. They all contain lots of water, and that makes them the perfect weight-loss food.W: That’s right. If you eat water-rich, lower-fat foods you can lose weight easily. You can start with a bowl of soup, have a salad, and then you can have a sandwich. Then you can bulk it up with lots of vegetables, and you can even have calories left for a fruit salad. This is a lot of food, but not many calories.M: Six hundred calories.W: Six hundred calories, yes.M: OK. Let’s go back over it. Water-dense foods will fill you up and satisfy your hunger. That’s a good thing when you’re dieting, plus they’re low in calories. But keep in mind, you can drink a glass of water and get the same effect. Fooling your body in this way is a little trick that can help you lose weight.W: Uh-huh. Fewer calories, but these foods won’t leave you feeling hungry. Still, let’s face it, water-dense foods just aren’t asconvenient as snack foods, and often they’re a lot more expensive.Questions:1. What is this passage about?2. What makes apples the perfect diet food?3. What can you begin your low-calorie meal with?4. What does the man call “a little trick”?5. What problem does the woman have with water-rich foods?Long conversationW: Where is my hairbrush? It was that daughter of ours, Lisa, wasn’t it? She took my brush!M: No, dear. Lisa moved out of the house ages ago, don’t you remember? I suppose it was 15 years ago. We haven’t so much as seen Lisa in a year or a year and a half. Or gotten a phone call in the last 6 months. So I think it’s safe to say that she didn’t steal your brush.W: Well…M: You’re forgetting things, love. But don’t worry.W: Why not?M: Because I’m here with you.W: And what if I forget you?M: Then I will remind you.W: And if you forget me?M: Then, we might have a problem. But there are things we can do to help us with this.W: Like what?M:Like…we can paste photographs on the walls. Yeah, photographs everywhere. We’ll have photographs of you and me and words underneath the pictures saying who we are. You know, husband on this one.W: And wife on this other one. That’s silly.M: So you don’t like it?W: Like what?M: I don’t remember.Questions:1. Why is the woman upset at the beginning of the conversation?2. When did Lisa move out of the house?3. Why should the woman be free of worry according to the man?4. What might cause a problem for the speakers?5. What can be inferred from the conversation?III. Compound DictationPassageMajor cultural differences in selling techniques include the relationship between the salesman and the customer. As an expert advises his colleagues, “In many foreign countries, personal relationships are more important than company regulations and products. Developing relationships takes time, but it is decisive to the selling process.”International trade fairs have become extremely important places for conducting business. Yet, very few domestic sales organizations understand how to take advantage of the opportunities that these shows present. In US trade shows, there is an open display of one’s products and services and a lot of looking but not buying. However, a European trade show is relatively closed. Mostly, it is only open to those who are there to conduct business.In some societies, the first thing people care about is quality.In other societies, the first thing on a customer’s mind is the cost of a particular product.And in other countries, the concern is style. The color, size, and quantity of items need to be considered in the packaging of any product. The color blue is for funerals in some countries, smaller items are preferred over large items, and the number of items in a package can be critical when trying to market it. Thus, we must consider these things when we do busines s abroad。

Reading comprehension (40 points)Directions: In this section there are four passages. Each passage is followed by five questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, D. Choose the best answer.Passage 1On a practical level, teachers need a wide variety of skills and abilities. They have to be ready to spend many hours at home planning their lessons and preparing homework. They have to be well organized in class, patient with students, able to appear bright and interested even if they are in fact tired or unhappy, and lively enough to control a group of young people for almost 200 days a year. Outside the classroom, they may have to prepare teaching materials, to choose books to use as texts, to help organize the work of other teachers, or to organize spare time activities for students.If you think that you have all the necessary qualities, you may feel that you would like to be a teacher. One way to decide, if you live in the United States, is by joining a club for future teachers, such as Student Action for Education. Clubs like this give advice about your field, and also allow you to watch teachers at work, attend meetings and experiment with teaching methods and equipment. You could also talk with the job advisor at your school or university. Finally, you could try teaching a younger student or becoming an advisor at a summer camp for children. Any activity in which you are dealing with children will help you decide whether you have a calling for teaching.21. The first paragraph is mainly about ____A____.A) how to plan lessons and prepare homeworkB) how to help organize the work of other teachersC) various skills and abilities teachers needD) how to prepare teaching materials22. The second paragraph is mainly concerned with ___B_____.A) the ways of deciding one's future employmentB) the ways to decide whether teaching should be one's future employmentC) joining a club for future teachersD) talking to an advisor when choosing future employment23. According to the author, a teacher should show a firm mind ___D_____.A) that suffers only from tirednessB) that suffers only from unhappinessC) that suffers only from unusual tiredness or unhappinessD) that is able to control tiredness and unhappiness24. Student Action for Education is ____A____.A) a summer camp for childrenB) an activity at a summer campC) a club for future teachersD) a club for job advisors25. Which of the following does the author suggest to a person who wants to be a teacher? ___C_____.A) Watching teachers at work, or organizing students' spare time activitiesB) Preparing and correcting homework, experimenting with teaching methods and equipmentC) Joining a future teachers' club, talking with job advisors, or working with childrenD) Planning lessons, or attending teachers' meetingsPassage 2There are different ideas about pets in different parts of the world. In most cultures, animals are in a worse position than human beings. In some cases, however, people treat their pets like members of their families, or perhaps better. In the United States and Europe, there are special shops that sell clothing and food for cats and dogs.In many countries of the world, there is special food for pets. It is common for big markets in many places to sell cat food and dog food. However, in a small town in France, there is a special restaurant for dogs. Dogs are the only customers. There is seating for twenty of them. The dogs choose from a variety of dishes on the menu.Of course, in most parts of the world, pets don't live in such wealth and comfort. People treat their pets in a more practical way. People own cats and dogs because they keep away mice and other unwanted animals. Owners have some loving feelings for their pets, but they do not see them as equal to family members. In most places in the world, there isn't any special clothing or fine food for animals. There aren't any special restaurants for dogs.Pets around the world live in a great variety of ways, just as people do.26. According to the passage, in most countries ___A______.A) people treat their pets like members of their familiesB) there are special shops that sell clothing for dogs and catsC) animals are in a worse position than human beingsD) pets such as dogs and cats are very popular27. According to the passage, there are _____A______.A) restaurants for dogs in every city in FranceB) no dogs or cats that wear clothingC) some people who treat their pets far better than they treat their childrenD) many owners of dogs and cats in the United States and Europe28. For many people, pets may have a more practical function because ____B_____.A) cats and dogs can be used to keep away miceB) pets are often useful companions for old peopleC) pets can sometimes be sold to make moneyD) some pets may show loving feelings for their owners.29. In your opinion, which of the following sentences is probably true? ____D_____.A) Dogs and cats like to wear expensive clothing.B) Many people visit the dog restaurant in France.C) People in every part of the world like to buy fine clothing for their pets.D) In some cases, animals have better food and clothing than people.30. The main idea of this reading passage is: ___C____.A) Dogs enjoy fine restaurantsB) A rich cat can afford to go to any restaurantC) People treat pets in very different ways in different parts of the worldD) It is stupid to have special food and clothing for animalsPassage 3What makes Americans spend nearly half their food dollars on meals away from home? The answers lie in the way Americans live today. During the first few decades of the twentieth century, canned and convenience foods freed the family cook from full-time duty at the kitchen range. Then, in the 1940s, work in the wartime plants took more women out of the home than ever before, setting the pattern of the working wife and mother.Today about half of the country’s married women are em ployed outside the home. But, unless family members pitch in with food preparation, women are not fully liberated from that chore. Instead many have become, in a sense, prisoners of the completely cooked convenience meal. It is easier to pick up a bucket of fried chicken on the way from work or t take family out for pizzas, or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long, hard day.Also, the rising divorce rate means that there are more single working parents with children to feed. And many young adults and elderly people, as well as unmarried and divorced mature people, live alone rather than as part of a family unit and don’t want to bother cooking for one.Fast food is appealing because it is fast, it doesn’t require any dressing up, it offers a “fun” break.31. American women left home to work in large numbers because of____D_____.A) the improved living standardB) the increase in food priceC) the need of wartime industryD) the modernization of the kitchen32. The phrase “pitch in” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to___A______.A) “offer help and support”B) “eat with good appetite”C) “offer compliment”D) “disagree with”33. What is a working mother’s best choice if she does not have ti me to prepare dinner for the family according to the passage? ___C____.A) Making a meal out of canned food.B) Buying some chicken on the way home and frying it.C) Taking the family to dinner at a pizza place.D) Heating up frozen dinners.34. Which of the following groups of Americans are most likely to cook their meal at home? ___B___A) Single working mothers.B) unmarried mature people.C) elderly people living alone.D) Unemployed women with family.35. What is this passage mainly about? ___C_____.A) Women’s liberation in America.B) Changes in the American family during Word War II.C) Reasons for the popularity of fast food in America.D) Rising divorce rate in America today.Passage 4The earth is not the only body that travels around the sun. With it are eight other planets (行星), fellow members of the sun's family.Two of them are nearer while the other six are farther from the sun than the earth is. The farther they are, the longer trips they make around the sun. People noticed long ago that these traveling bodies moved around in the sky in fixed paths. It is a force called gravity (重力) that holds them in their paths.We know that every little bit of matter in the universe (宇宙) pulls upon every other bit of matter. Because the sun is so large, the pulls between the sun and the planets are thus great. If it were not for these pulls, the planets would fly off into space. In the same way there exists a pull between the earth and the moon, which keeps the moon traveling in its orbit (轨道) around our planet, the earth. Gravity holds you to the earth’s surface, and pulls back to it the ball which you throw into the air. Of course, the ball also pulls on the larger earth but the earth is so much larger that the pull is not noticed.Now remember that large bodies bring to bear a greater pull on any body than smaller ones which contain less material. But each object in the universe, no matter how small, pulls on all other objects to some degree.36. The earth is ____A______ in the sun family.A) one of the nine fellow membersB) bigger than two of the other bodiesC) smaller than the other bodiesD) nearer than two fellow members37. These traveling bodies _____D_____.A) make much longer trips when they travel around the sunB) have the same traveling pathsC) have their paths changed a bitD) move along certain paths around the sun38. The gravity of every matter in the universe ____A______.A) worksB) makes it fly off into spaceC) keeps the object travelingD) holds it to the surface39. The pull makes the ball ____A______.A) you throw into the air fall back to the earthB) go up into the skyC) fly around the bodyD) none of the above40. Which of the following is TRUE? ____C______.A) The smaller matters fly off into space.B) We do not notice the pull of the moon.C) The larger the bodies are, the greater their pull is.D) The moon travels around the earth because it's nearer to the earth than the other fellowmembers in the sun's family.Part III.

He was not satisfied with the position and wanted to find something better.Yet he did not want to lose his position in bank before he had got another one, so he prepared a letter about himself, with the words "HELP! I AM A PRISONER OF THE BANK OF RURITANIA!" in big letters across the top. Then he sent it to several other banks, asking them for a job.A few days later, one of these letters came into the hands of Herman's boss at the bank; someone had given it to him at a party.

In 1801, Thomas Jefferson was the first president to take the oath of office in the nation's permanent capital, Washington D.C. Although Washington was a new city, it was already familiar to President Jefferson. In fact, Jefferson had helped plan the capital's streets and public buildings. Besides being a city planner and architect, the new President was a writer, a scientist, and the inventor of several tools.Jefferson lived in the Presidential Palace. The Palace was more than a home; it contained offices for the President and some of his staff and advisors. It also included dining and receptionrooms, where the President could entertain congressmen. However, President Jefferson did not give many formal parties. This was partly because there was no First Lady. Jefferson's wife had died in 1782. But it was also because Jefferson liked to live in a simple fashion. Once, he showed up for an important meeting wearing old clothes and slippers! Neither Washington nor Adams would ever have dressed so casually.Jefferson was different from the first two Presidents in other ways, too. He disagreed with them about how the country should be run, and about what part a President should play in running it.（15 分）(1).

Chess must be one of the oldest games in the world. An Arab traveller in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played 'long, long ago.' Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name 'chess' is interesting. When one player is attacking the other's king, he says in English, 'check'. When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says 'check mate'. These words come from Persian 'Shah mat' means 'the king is dead'. That is when the game is over, and one player has won.Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It would be interesting to know why this has happened. Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You don't have to be a champion in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able to play many people at the same time. The record was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people played chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world.（15 分）(1). Chess was played in India long before 900. （3 分）A. TB. F(2). One player has won the game when he attacks the other player's king. （3 分）A.
