Part III. Reading Comprehension(30%)
Directions:Read the following passages carefully and do the multiple-choice questions.
Passage1
It's 3 a.m. when the phone rings. A trembling voice asks, Are you a psychic(通灵大师)
for real? I hope so because I really need some help. The caller then proceeds to relate that
—．
she's worried about her daughter. Just recently, she's been waking up from nightmares, like
tonight. The mother's wondering if her daughter has been the victim of violence.
My next caller is a girl in her early teens, who is crying bitterly. I have to talk in a soft voice.
Comfort falls on the child's ear, decorated with, You're a good girl, and No, you did nothing
wrong. Eventually the sobbing(抽噎) stops altogether. Finally the child says Thank you,
lady.
I never lose my temper at the caller. Never. But the air has been blue a few times after my
hanging up from a difficult person. It still amazes me that people call us because they feel we
are gifted and that we have information that can help them; for the most part that's true.
My third caller is barely out of high school. She has a part time job at McDonald's, still lives at home, and wants to know how soon she's going to get pregnant. The fact she doesn't have a boyfriend seems more important to her than how she could possibly be responsible for a child.
When no babies are seen in the near future (Thank the Gods!) she hangs up, voicing her unhappiness at the outcome. She'll call around until she finds someone who will tell her what
she wants to hear.
Failing that as a solution, I sometimes take a long bath. There I set free all that I am
holding too close, lie in the warm bath and listen to some relaxing music. As a last resort（最后一招）I have a fun solution that has a few of my neighbors letting me stay at a safe distance. I
go for a walk and take in all the nature and activity around me. And I usually don't feel any
drive to explain what I am doing, except sometimes to my friends, those who show concern for
me. (368 words)
36. It seems that at the very beginning the first caller ________.
A. has doubt about whether she is speaking to a psychic
B. trusts the psychic very much
C. wants to cheat the psychic
D. intends to make fun of the psychic
37. The girl stops sobbing because ________.
A. she is a good girl
B. she is made to believe that she did nothing wrong
C. psychic speaks well
D. she is sent to call her mother
38. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the sentence in Paragraph 3: But the air has been blue a few times after my hanging up from a difficult person.

B. But I feel sad when the talk with a difficult person on the phone is over.
C. But I always feel sad after a talk with a difficult person on the phone.
D. But the situation changes suddenly after I finish a talk with a difficult person on the phone.
39. The third caller will be happy if ________.
A. the psychic doesn't tell her the truth
B. the psychic tells her the truth
C. the psychic tells her to call another psychic
D. the psychic asks her to call again
40. Which of the following is not true?

B. The psychic does have her own problems.
C. The psychic often seeks help from her friends.
D. The psychic has to speak in a soft voice to comfort callers.
Passage 2
In the summer of 1978 an English farmer named Ian Stevens was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered something strange. Some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground. The flattened （被压平的）wheat formed a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat. In the following years more and more similar circles were found in a field of wheat or corn. So people cannot help but ask the question: What causes the circles?
At first, people suspected that the circles were a trick. To prove that the circles were a trick, people tried to copy them: they tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found. They couldn't do it. They couldn't enter a field of grain without leaving tracks, and they couldn't flatten the grain without breaking it. The circles are apparently not a trick.
Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles. Some think
that the beings are trying to communicate with us from far away and that the circles are messages from them. Others believe that the beings have actually landed on earth and that the circles are marks left by their spaceships. Several times people reported seeing strange flying objects near fields where circles later appeared.
Scientists say they're not sure what causes them. They have suggested several theories.
For example, some scientists say that microbursts of wind created the circles. A microburst is a downward rush of cool air —the same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash. Others scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. But circles often appear in forms. It is hard to believe that any natural force could create those forms. And recently farmers have discovered not only circles but also other shapes such as triangles in their fields. Could any natural force created a perfect triangle in a field of grain?
In the summer of 1990 some scientists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared. They had all the latest high-tech equipment. This equipment —worth 1.8 million dollars —recorded nothing. But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, circles formed in the field behind them. These circles are shown in the photograph. The scientists had neither seen nor heard anything. (402 words)
41. What causes the circles?
A. Teenagers.
B. Farmers.
C. Flying objects.
D. None of the above.
42. The thing that proves that the circles were not a trick is that ________.
A. two men said they made the circles themselves
B. farmers were making the circles to attract tourists
C. people cannot copy the circles without leaving marks or breaking the grain
D. scientists suggest theories that support the idea that circles were made by
natural forces
43. The circles mean ________.
A. that beings from outer space are trying to communicate with human beings
B. that beings from outer space have visited the earth
C. that there do exist strange flying objects
D. none of the above
44. The only thing for the scientists to be happy about in the summer of 1990 is possibly ________.
A. that they discovered how the circles were made
B. that they saw the circles with the help of the latest high-tech equipment
C. that they were able to show the circles in a photograph
D. none of the above
45. A proper title for this passage is ________.
A. An Unsolved Mystery
B. Strange Flying Objects
D. The Discovery of Strange Circles C. The Power of Natural Forces
Passage 3
Accidents are caused; they don't just happen. The reason may be easy to see: an overloaded tray, a shelf out of reach, a patch of ice on the road. But more often than not there is a chain of events leading up to the misfortune-frustration, tiredness or just bad temper-that show what the accident really is, a sort of attack on oneself.
Road accidents, for example, happen frequently after a family quarrel, and we all
know people who are accident-prone, so often at odds with（和…人争执）themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others.
By definition, an accident is something you cannot predict or avoid, and the idea
which used to be current, that the majority of road accidents are caused a majority of
criminally careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics. These show that most
accidents involve ordinary motorists in a moment of carelessness of thoughtlessness.
It is not always, clear, either, what sort of conditions make people more likely to have
an accident. For instance, the law requires all factories to take safety precautions and most companies have safety committees to make sure the regulations are observed, but still,
every day in Britain, some fifty thousand men and women are absent from work due to an
accident-noise and fatigue, boredom or worry are possible factors which contribute to this.
Doctors who work in factories have found that those who drink too much, usually people
who have a high anxiety level, run three times the normal risk of accidents at work.
46. This passage might be taken from _____________.
A. a text book
B. a science fiction
D. an annual report of a company
C. a popular magazine
47. The writer indicates that ___________.
A. British people are often absent-minded.
B. doctors should work in factories to avoid accidents.
C. drivers are the only factor leading to road accidents.
D. there are always some people who fail to observe regulations.
48. Which of the following is not mentioned as a factor of accidents?
A. anxiety
B. tiredness
C. bad weather
D. carelessness
49. “Accident-prone”(Para.2)probably means “___________.”
A. liable to have accidents
B. likely to be killed in accidents
C. responsible for road accidents
D. possible to avoid accidents
50. Which of the following could serve as the best title for this passage?
A. Causes of Accidents
B. Prevention of Accidents
C. Results of Accidents
D. Accidents and anxiety
Passage 4

新视野第三册1单元测试（本单元配有答案）Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题：4 分) Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog. Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good. I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousins told me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel it just strolling around the street because they wore different clothes. We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity. 1.Which people are having trouble with language? A. Natives. B. People of the 2nd generation.
