Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.When I was a kid, I read every comic book ever published. I quickly went through all of them in a couple of days, and then reread the good ones until the next issues arrived.But as I got older, my eyeballs must have slowed down! I mean comic books started to pile up faster than my brother Russell. It wasn't until much later did I realize it wasn't my eye balls that were to blame. They're still moving as well as ever. The problem is there's too much to read these days and too little time to read every word of it.Now, besides novels and newspapers, I read different kinds of books and magazines. There are hundreds of techniques you could learn to help you read faster. But I know of three that are especially good.Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading, like long and hard magazine or newspaper articles. Read the entire first two paragraphs of whatever you've chosen. Next read only the first sentence of each successive paragraph. Then read the entire last paragraph. It can give you as much as half the comprehension in as little as one-tenth the time.Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading, like short and simple popular magazines or the sports and entertainment sections of the newspaper. Think of your eyes as magnets. Force them to move fast. Sweep each line and pick up only a few key words in each line.Clustering trains you to look at groups of words instead of one at a time to increase your speed and comprehension enormously. It is a totally different way of seeing what we read. Here's how to cluster: Train your eyes to see all the words in clusters of up to three or four words at a glance.With enough practice, you'll be able to handle more reading at school or work – and at home – in less time. You should even have enough time to read your favorite comic books.46.What did the writer realize later regarding his slowed-down eyeballs?A. His brother had more comic books than him.B. He couldn't read as fast as his brother.C. He couldn't finish reading all the comic books.D. He had too much to read but too little time to do it.47.Why is previewing especially useful for a heavy reading?A. You can read various kinds of books such as magazines.B. You can see the whole picture of a long reading in less time.C. You can understand the content completely within a short time.D. You can comprehend at least 50% of what you're reading.48.What is the use of the technique of skimming when you are doinglight reading?A. It enables you to read some entertaining books.B. It enables you to think like magnets.C. It helps you pick up key words.D. It helps you get the information you want.49.What's the most important advantage when you do clustering?A. It helps you read faster and understand better.B. It lets you read in a totally different way.C. It allows your eyes to pick up three to four words at a time.D. It trains your eyes to see all the words in the reading.50.Which statement best expresses the main idea of this passage?A. Moving your eyes fast gives you a general idea.B. It is necessary to choose different methods for different readings.C. Different reading skills should be used at the same time.D. You may read faster by using reading techniques.Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Before computers were invented, the words byte and modem did not exist, and a mouse was something that made some people scream and run away. Words are added to language every day. Changes in society also cause changes in language.Changes in attitude also affect language. As people become more sensitive to the rights and needs of individual, it becomes necessary to change the words we use to describe them. The elderly are now called senior citizens. The handicapped are described as physically challenged. Many of the words we once used had negative feelings attached to them. New words show an awareness in today's society that differences are good and that everyone deserves respect. Even the names of certain jobs have changed so that workers can be proud of what they do. The trash man is now called a sanitation worker and a doorman is an attendant. One important influence on our language in the past decade has been the changing role of women in modern society. As women entered more and more areas that were once thought of as men's job, it became necessary to change the job titles. For example, a mailman is now a mail carrier, a watchman is a guard.Sometimes new words may seem awkward and silly, such as chair for chairman, fisher for fisherman, and drafter for draftsman. But change is never easy. People often fight change until it becomes a familiar part of everyday life.Women have fought long and hard to be treated equally in language as well as in society, because they know that changes in language can cause changes in attitudes. If every person isn't referred to as he, people will begin to realize that men aren't the only ones who are important or who have made great achievements. Most words that indicate only one gender have been replaced with words that refer to both males and females. Thus, a poetess is called a poet, a waitress is a server, and mankind has become humankind.51.Words are added to language ________.A. when new things are inventedB. when society changesC. when old words disappearD. all the time52.Words are changed because ________.A. it is part of everyday life.B. the handicapped should be proud of themselves.C. many old words cause negative feelings.D. some words look silly and awkward.53. A doorman is now called ________.A. attendantB. watchmanC. trash manD. server54.Which of the following is one important influence on our language inthe past decade according to the passage?A. The changing attitude toward the elderly.B. The changing job market.C. The changing role of women.D. The changing social opinions.55.Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A. Language is always added with new vocabulary.B. Language changes with the changing of society.C. Changing language reflects the achievements of people.D. Changing language gives people more individual rights.Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.People use more than just words to communicate. In fact, some researchers claim that less than half of a spoken message's real meaning is in the words used in the message. They say that most of a message's meaning comes from understanding how the speaker uses things like tone of voice and body language.Body language includes such things as the expression on the speaker's face, gestures that speaker makes with his or her hands, and the position of the speaker's body. Just as there are many different languages spoken around the world, there are many different ways for people to use body language, too. For example, gestures may imply different meanings in different cultures. Making a "thumbs up" sign in America means, "Great!" However, in Arab cultures, this gesture is extremely offensive.Although many gestures can be interpreted differently by different cultures, there are also many gestures that are almost universally interpreted in the same way. For example, by and large, a smile is understood as a sign of friendship or good will around the world. Also, using an open hand to gesture toward something is viewed as polite or friendly in most cultures.There are also some forms of body language that can be universally read with the meaning, "I am interested in you" or "I like you." Sometimes this kind of body language is used unconsciously between two people. These signs of interest include standing or sitting with both feet flat on the ground, mirroring or using the same gestures as the other person, and turningone's body to fully face the other person.Body language experts point out one important thing. The person's culture is only one factor that can influence his or her use of body language. The time and place where the body language is being used can have a lot to do with a person's body language. If the person has had a bad day or if a meeting takes place in a crowded place, the body language a person uses may be very different from under other circumstances.56.According to the passage, more than half of a spoken message's realmeaning comes from ________.A. words used in the messageB. things used in the messageC. the speaker's tone of voiceD. the speaker's tone and body language57.The second paragraph describes ________.A. an example of a gesture not used in IndiaB. different meanings of gestures in different culturesC. how gestures can change the meaning of wordsD. useful gestures in Arab cultures58.If a person starts copying your body language, what does thissuggest?A. He/She is interested in you.B. He/She isn't interested in you.C. He/She doesn't agree with you.D. He/She agrees with you.59.People may use different body languages ________.A. only in different placesB. only at different timeC. under different circumstancesD. under few circumstances60.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Body language is an important part of communication.B. Body language is affected by culture.C. Body language can be extremely offensive.D. Body language can tell you whether people like you.Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.Grammar is an aspect of language about which learners have different opinions. Some learners are very interested in finding out or learning grammar rules and doing lots of grammar exercises. Others hate grammar and think it is the most boring part of learning a new language. Whatever opinion you have, however, you cannot escape from grammar; it is in every sentence you read or write, speak or hear. Grammar is simply the word for the rules that people follow when they use a language. We need those rules in the same way as we need the rules in a game. If there are no rules, or if everybody follows their own rules, the game would soon break down. It's the same with language; without rules we would not be able to communicate with other people.So you cannot escape from grammar, but the key question here is: What is the best way to learn grammar? You can learn the rules of a game by simply playing the game. You will certainly make mistakes; you may even get hurt. Eventually, however, you will know how to play. Of course, the rules of a language are very much more complicated than the rules of any game, but in fact this is exactly how you learned your own language. Nobody taught you the rules of your mother tongue as you were growing up but now you never make a grammar mistake.Most people learning a new language do not have so much time and such an ideal situation. So, there is no easy answer to the question. There are just as many different opinions about teaching grammar as there are about learning grammar. Many teachers believe in the importance of grammar lessons devoted to a study of language rules and lots of practice exercises. Other teachers feel that grammar is best learned by doing different language activities without focusing so directly on the rules. Whatever your opinion about grammar and whichever is the way you are taught, you need to use different strategies to help you learn grammar more effectively.61.How is grammar defined in the passage?A. Grammar is something you cannot escape from.B. Grammar is a kind of game that requires a lot of practice.C. Grammar is a set of rules that are used in a language.D. Grammar is a strategy that consists of rules.62.According to the passage, why is learning grammar important?A. It helps you make no mistakes.B. It makes communication possible.C. It helps you not to get hurt.D. It makes playing games possible.63.In the writer's opinion, what is the best way to learn grammar?A. Playing games with a set of rules.B. Learning grammar naturally as you grow up.C. Recalling how you learned your mother tongue.D. Doing a lot of grammar exercises.64.What's the difference between teachers' opinions in the way oflearning grammar?A. More exercises vs. more activities.B. More activities vs. less exercises.C. Less exercises vs. more grammar rules.D. More exercises vs. less activities.65.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Memorizing rules is required for learning grammar.B. Doing a lot of exercises helps learn grammar.C. Playing games helps learn grammar better.D. There are different ways to learn grammar.Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage.Gender differences are also reflected in the ways that men and women use language. In junior high school, Joy's status will depend on her circle of friends. If her friends are popular, then Joy may enjoy high status at schools. For this reason, Joy and many other girls are interested in gossip, talking about other people and their private lives. If Joy has some information to share about a popular girl at school, this proves that she has a friendship with this girl. In this way Joy can use gossip to gain more status in her school.Tommy, on the other hand, may be less interested in gossip. His status doesn't depend on who his friends are at school. Tommy gains status through his own ability to play sports well or earn high grades. Later in life, Joy may continue to be interested in talking about other people and their lives. Tommy will be less interested in personal talk and more concerned with discussions of sports and news. These give him a chance to gain status by showing others his knowledge.Different ways of speaking are part of gender. As adults, men and women sometimes face difficulties in their communication with each other. Studies of communication show that if a woman tells her husband about a problem, she will expect him to listen and offer sympathy. She may be annoyed when he simply tells her how to solve the problem. Similarly, a husband may be annoyed when his wife wants to stop and ask a stranger for directions to a park or restaurant. Unlike his wife, he would rather use a map and find his way by himself.Language is also part of the different ways that men and women think about friendship. Most men believe that friendship means doing things together such as camping or playing tennis. Women, on the other hand, usually identify their best friend as someone with whom they talk frequently. Moreover, they often use tag questions to get agreement from their friends. If men and women can understand their differences, they may be able to improve their relationships.66.Why are girls interested in gossip?A. Gossip teaches them how to act.B. Gossip allows them to use commands.C. Gossip brings them high status.D. Gossip helps them know about their friends.67.What do some boys want to prove by discussing sports?A. They are knowledgeable.B. They are more masculine.C. They are interested in sports.D. They are not interested in personal talking.68.What will a woman expect her husband to do if she tells him about aproblem?A. Tell her how to solve the problem.B. Listen and show sympathy to her.C. Talk about the problem with her.D. Solve the problem for her.69.Men usually show friendship by ________.A. doing things togetherB. agreeing with each otherC. talking together oftenD. camping or playing tennis together70.What message does the writer want to send out?A. Both men and women should speak directly.B. Talking to women is easier than talking to men.C. There are many differences between men and women.D. It's beneficial to understand gender differences in using language.D B D A D D A A C B D B A C A C B BA D C AB A Cmanage trasubmar。

The arrival of digital (数字的) time has been changing the way we act and think. I believe that it has put us to a higher level of anxiety, with greater expectations of efficiency.The old, round, hand-moved time still kept a certain connection to the natural flow of things, to the roundness of the earth, and to the changes of light and seasons. Old, round time was outside ourselves, far enough removed from us so we could ignore it if we so chose.It is not so with digital time, which is a beat. It beats instead of turning. It makes a sound like the sound of the heart and thus places itself smoothly into the body. More and more, we mistake its regular beat for our own, thus mistaking the demands of the world for our wishes.Before wrist watches, time used to live in towers in the centers of towns. At that distance, it could be seen by everybody, but only if they so wished. It took an effort, an actual visit to "time". But then something happened. Time began to live with us, and now it is beginning to live in us.I remember what it was like to be a child, absorbed in the endlessly changeable thing of time. For me there was only child time, divided meaninglessly and quite painfully by the orders of the parents into Bedtime, Wakeup Time, and School Time. But within each of those divisions (分割), Eternity still ruled. Later, of course, they managed to infect me with the anxious demands of clock time. Very soon, all that remained was the anxiety of thatwhich was exact. The fast beats of the timepiece (时钟) cut Eternity to pieces.Occasionally, I stop long enough to recall the times of childhood, but not often enough. Like everybody else, I am helpless before the new technologies. Time is a virus, and it is growing stronger.76.Digital time has changed how we act and think by ____C________________.A. allowing us to work with more efficiencyB. giving us more time to do what we likeC. causing us to be more anxiousD. having us expect more of others77.The author thinks that the old clocks _________A___________.A. are somehow linked with the seasonal changesB. stay closer to people than a digital watchC. are connected with human's handsD. work better than a wrist watch78.Before watches, clocks were located _________D_________.A. everywhere for everyone to seeB. wherever a person wishedC. on the wristD. in the center of town79.In the author's early childhood memory, ____B_____________.A. time was a concrete thingB. time seemed to have no endC. he fought against his parents' idea of timeD. he enjoyed the anxiety of precision (精确)80.The author's attitude towards time in the modern world is _____C_______.A. positiveB. unclearC. negativeD. in the middleQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.The University of London is one of Britain's largest centers for higher education, with a name for international education. Located in one of the world's most dynamic(有活力有生气的) cities, we can offer international students a wide and exciting cultural life, as well as the very best course choice and teaching. We offer our international students the ability to study and improve their command of English, to ensure they get the best from the course of their choice.International students are assured of a successful and happy time while studying at the University of London. We have a Student Service office to help you at all times, and first year students are ensured a place in halls of residence if desired. Your teacher will give you personal instruction if required. Students can enjoy themselves in the free health center at any time.As a final point, we offer religious service rooms for those of all faiths and as London is an international city, we can put students in touch with many religious groups in this area. Finally, with excellent air, rail, and road links to the rest of Britain, Europe, and the world, getting here is easy.81.The University of London is located in a city _____B_____________.A. well known for producing excellent professorsB. full of activity and energyC. where you can enjoy everything free of chargeD. that is quiet and peaceful all the time82.The University of London is famous for _________D_________.A. the largest number of studentsB. being located on the ThamesC. excellent transportationD. international education83.Whenever international students have any difficulty in life, they can go to_____C__________ for help.A. the health centerB. the hall of residenceC. the Student Service officeD. their teacher84.The university assures the first year students that ________A_________.A. they can have a place in halls of residence if they wish toB. they don't have to pay for their first-year educationC. they will all be put into some religious groupsD. they can get houses at Newcastle for a very low price85.The main purpose of this passage is to ___________C_______.A. attract more travelers to LondonB. show that the University offers religious serviceC. draw more international studentsD. show how students enjoy their studyQuestions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.Stare at the clock.Make silly drawings.Stare at the clock again.Complain about the weather.The clock? It's still there, ticking even more slowly.No, none of this was planned for the meeting.You'd love to get your work done, but instead you spend half your day in a meeting room.Office workers spend an average of 23 hours a week in meetings, according to the Wharton Center for Applied Research in the US. And, these workers consider only 58 percent of that time useful.It doesn't have to be this way. Here are a few guidelines for you to use meetings effectively, not eat up your productivity.1) Know what you want. "Know precisely why the meeting is being held and decide realistically what you intend to accomplish," says Gayle Brickman, a US communication instructor. "If you cannot write these two things down, the meeting should not take place."2) Figure out whether a face-to-face meeting is necessary. Would a group email be enough?A couple of phone calls? These ways would probably be more efficient with fellow workers you know well.3) Pick the right times. If possible, avoid planning meetings during your most productive hours. If everyone runs to the break room for coffee at 10:30 am, that would be an excellent time to have informal staff meetings.4) Be prepared. Read the plan for what needs to be done. Study the numbers on the project you're putting forward. If there are papers to be discussed, hand them out the day before to those who will attend the meeting.5) Keep track of the time for them. Set apart a certain amount of time each week for the meetings, and keep to it.If you still find yourself caught in meeting after meeting, don't feel bad. At least your organization obviously thinks your physical presence is valuable.86. A worker who is in a meeting that he doesn't want to take part in is likely to______A_____.A. draw funny picturesB. change the clockC. check the weatherD. plan another meeting87.Office workers think that ____C_____ the time used in meetings is wasted.A. more than half ofB. almost all ofC. less than half ofD. none of88.In this passage, we are advised to follow some principles in order to _____C_____.A. learn guidelinesB. eat up productivityC. make the most of meetingsD. increase production89.To decide whether a meeting is necessary, we may ask the following questions except"_____B______".A. Can I solve the problem by email or phone call?B. Will my fellow workers like to have this meeting?C. What is the purpose of this meeting?D. What do I intend to get from the meeting?90.It is a good time to have informal staff meetings ____B_______.A. when you and your coworkers are most productiveB. when all the staff are having a coffee breakC. before you hand out the information to be discussedD. when you can keep track of the time。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.When I was a kid, I read every comic book ever published. I quickly went through all of them in a couple of days, and then reread the good ones until the next issues arrived.But as I got older, my eyeballs must have slowed down! I mean comic books started to pile up faster than my brother Russell. It wasn't until much later did I realize it wasn't my eye balls that were to blame. They're still moving as well as ever. The problem is there's too much to read these days and too little time to read every word of it.Now, besides novels and newspapers, I read different kinds of books and magazines. There are hundreds of techniques you could learn to help you read faster. But I know of three that are especially good.Previewing is especially useful for getting a general idea of heavy reading, like long and hard magazine or newspaper articles. Read the entire first two paragraphs of whatever you've chosen. Next read only the first sentence of each successive paragraph. Then read the entire last paragraph. It can give you as much as half the comprehension in as little as one-tenth the time.Skimming is a good way to get a general idea of light reading, like short and simple popular magazines or the sports and entertainment sections of the newspaper. Think of your eyes as magnets. Force them to move fast. Sweep each line and pick up only a few key words in each line.Clustering trains you to look at groups of words instead of one at a time to increase your speed and comprehension enormously. It is a totally different way of seeing what we read. Here's how to cluster: Train your eyes to see all the words in clusters of up to three or four words at a glance.With enough practice, you'll be able to handle more reading at school or work – and at home – in less time. You should even have enough time to read your favorite comic books.46.What did the writer realize later regarding his slowed-down eyeballs?A. His brother had more comic books than him.B. He couldn't read as fast as his brother.C. He couldn't finish reading all the comic books.D. He had too much to read but too little time to do it.47.Why is previewing especially useful for a heavy reading?A. You can read various kinds of books such as magazines.B. You can see the whole picture of a long reading in less time.C. You can understand the content completely within a short time.D. You can comprehend at least 50% of what you're reading.48.What is the use of the technique of skimming when you are doinglight reading?A. It enables you to read some entertaining books.B. It enables you to think like magnets.C. It helps you pick up key words.D. It helps you get the information you want.49.What's the most important advantage when you do clustering?A. It helps you read faster and understand better.B. It lets you read in a totally different way.C. It allows your eyes to pick up three to four words at a time.D. It trains your eyes to see all the words in the reading.50.Which statement best expresses the main idea of this passage?A. Moving your eyes fast gives you a general idea.B. It is necessary to choose different methods for different readings.C. Different reading skills should be used at the same time.D. You may read faster by using reading techniques.Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Before computers were invented, the words byte and modem did not exist, and a mouse was something that made some people scream and run away. Words are added to language every day. Changes in society also cause changes in language.Changes in attitude also affect language. As people become more sensitive to the rights and needs of individual, it becomes necessary to change the words we use to describe them. The elderly are now called senior citizens. The handicapped are described as physically challenged. Many of the words we once used had negative feelings attached to them. New words show an awareness in today's society that differences are good and that everyone deserves respect. Even the names of certain jobs have changed so that workers can be proud of what they do. The trash man is now called a sanitation worker and a doorman is an attendant. One important influence on our language in the past decade has been the changing role of women in modern society. As women entered more and more areas that were once thought of as men's job, it became necessary to change the job titles. For example, a mailman is now a mail carrier, a watchman is a guard.Sometimes new words may seem awkward and silly, such as chair for chairman, fisher for fisherman, and drafter for draftsman. But change is never easy. People often fight change until it becomes a familiar part of everyday life.Women have fought long and hard to be treated equally in language as well as in society, because they know that changes in language can cause changes in attitudes. If every person isn't referred to as he, people will begin to realize that men aren't the only ones who are important or who have made great achievements. Most words that indicate only one gender have been replaced with words that refer to both males and females. Thus, a poetess is called a poet, a waitress is a server, and mankind has become humankind.51.Words are added to language ________.A. when new things are inventedB. when society changesC. when old words disappearD. all the time52.Words are changed because ________.A. it is part of everyday life.B. the handicapped should be proud of themselves.C. many old words cause negative feelings.D. some words look silly and awkward.53. A doorman is now called ________.A. attendantB. watchmanC. trash manD. server54.Which of the following is one important influence on our language inthe past decade according to the passage?A. The changing attitude toward the elderly.B. The changing job market.C. The changing role of women.D. The changing social opinions.55.Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A. Language is always added with new vocabulary.B. Language changes with the changing of society.C. Changing language reflects the achievements of people.D. Changing language gives people more individual rights.Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.People use more than just words to communicate. In fact, some researchers claim that less than half of a spoken message's real meaning is in the words used in the message. They say that most of a message's meaning comes from understanding how the speaker uses things like tone of voice and body language.Body language includes such things as the expression on the speaker's face, gestures that speaker makes with his or her hands, and the position of the speaker's body. Just as there are many different languages spoken around the world, there are many different ways for people to use body language, too. For example, gestures may imply different meanings in different cultures. Making a "thumbs up" sign in America means, "Great!" However, in Arab cultures, this gesture is extremely offensive.Although many gestures can be interpreted differently by different cultures, there are also many gestures that are almost universally interpreted in the same way. For example, by and large, a smile is understood as a sign of friendship or good will around the world. Also, using an open hand to gesture toward something is viewed as polite or friendly in most cultures.There are also some forms of body language that can be universally read with the meaning, "I am interested in you" or "I like you." Sometimes this kind of body language is used unconsciously between two people. These signs of interest include standing or sitting with both feet flat on the ground, mirroring or using the same gestures as the other person, and turningone's body to fully face the other person.Body language experts point out one important thing. The person's culture is only one factor that can influence his or her use of body language. The time and place where the body language is being used can have a lot to do with a person's body language. If the person has had a bad day or if a meeting takes place in a crowded place, the body language a person uses may be very different from under other circumstances.56.According to the passage, more than half of a spoken message's realmeaning comes from ________.A. words used in the messageB. things used in the messageC. the speaker's tone of voiceD. the speaker's tone and body language57.The second paragraph describes ________.A. an example of a gesture not used in IndiaB. different meanings of gestures in different culturesC. how gestures can change the meaning of wordsD. useful gestures in Arab cultures58.If a person starts copying your body language, what does thissuggest?A. He/She is interested in you.B. He/She isn't interested in you.C. He/She doesn't agree with you.D. He/She agrees with you.59.People may use different body languages ________.A. only in different placesB. only at different timeC. under different circumstancesD. under few circumstances60.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Body language is an important part of communication.B. Body language is affected by culture.C. Body language can be extremely offensive.D. Body language can tell you whether people like you.Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.Grammar is an aspect of language about which learners have different opinions. Some learners are very interested in finding out or learning grammar rules and doing lots of grammar exercises. Others hate grammar and think it is the most boring part of learning a new language. Whatever opinion you have, however, you cannot escape from grammar; it is in every sentence you read or write, speak or hear. Grammar is simply the word for the rules that people follow when they use a language. We need those rules in the same way as we need the rules in a game. If there are no rules, or if everybody follows their own rules, the game would soon break down. It's the same with language; without rules we would not be able to communicate with other people.So you cannot escape from grammar, but the key question here is: What is the best way to learn grammar? You can learn the rules of a game by simply playing the game. You will certainly make mistakes; you may even get hurt. Eventually, however, you will know how to play. Of course, the rules of a language are very much more complicated than the rules of any game, but in fact this is exactly how you learned your own language. Nobody taught you the rules of your mother tongue as you were growing up but now you never make a grammar mistake.Most people learning a new language do not have so much time and such an ideal situation. So, there is no easy answer to the question. There are just as many different opinions about teaching grammar as there are about learning grammar. Many teachers believe in the importance of grammar lessons devoted to a study of language rules and lots of practice exercises. Other teachers feel that grammar is best learned by doing different language activities without focusing so directly on the rules. Whatever your opinion about grammar and whichever is the way you are taught, you need to use different strategies to help you learn grammar more effectively.61.How is grammar defined in the passage?A. Grammar is something you cannot escape from.B. Grammar is a kind of game that requires a lot of practice.C. Grammar is a set of rules that are used in a language.D. Grammar is a strategy that consists of rules.62.According to the passage, why is learning grammar important?A. It helps you make no mistakes.B. It makes communication possible.C. It helps you not to get hurt.D. It makes playing games possible.63.In the writer's opinion, what is the best way to learn grammar?A. Playing games with a set of rules.B. Learning grammar naturally as you grow up.C. Recalling how you learned your mother tongue.D. Doing a lot of grammar exercises.64.What's the difference between teachers' opinions in the way oflearning grammar?A. More exercises vs. more activities.B. More activities vs. less exercises.C. Less exercises vs. more grammar rules.D. More exercises vs. less activities.65.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Memorizing rules is required for learning grammar.B. Doing a lot of exercises helps learn grammar.C. Playing games helps learn grammar better.D. There are different ways to learn grammar.Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage.Gender differences are also reflected in the ways that men and women use language. In junior high school, Joy's status will depend on her circle of friends. If her friends are popular, then Joy may enjoy high status at schools. For this reason, Joy and many other girls are interested in gossip, talking about other people and their private lives. If Joy has some information to share about a popular girl at school, this proves that she has a friendship with this girl. In this way Joy can use gossip to gain more status in her school.Tommy, on the other hand, may be less interested in gossip. His status doesn't depend on who his friends are at school. Tommy gains status through his own ability to play sports well or earn high grades. Later in life, Joy may continue to be interested in talking about other people and their lives. Tommy will be less interested in personal talk and more concerned with discussions of sports and news. These give him a chance to gain status by showing others his knowledge.Different ways of speaking are part of gender. As adults, men and women sometimes face difficulties in their communication with each other. Studies of communication show that if a woman tells her husband about a problem, she will expect him to listen and offer sympathy. She may be annoyed when he simply tells her how to solve the problem. Similarly, a husband may be annoyed when his wife wants to stop and ask a stranger for directions to a park or restaurant. Unlike his wife, he would rather use a map and find his way by himself.Language is also part of the different ways that men and women think about friendship. Most men believe that friendship means doing things together such as camping or playing tennis. Women, on the other hand, usually identify their best friend as someone with whom they talk frequently. Moreover, they often use tag questions to get agreement from their friends. If men and women can understand their differences, they may be able to improve their relationships.66.Why are girls interested in gossip?A. Gossip teaches them how to act.B. Gossip allows them to use commands.C. Gossip brings them high status.D. Gossip helps them know about their friends.67.What do some boys want to prove by discussing sports?A. They are knowledgeable.B. They are more masculine.C. They are interested in sports.D. They are not interested in personal talking.68.What will a woman expect her husband to do if she tells him about aproblem?A. Tell her how to solve the problem.B. Listen and show sympathy to her.C. Talk about the problem with her.D. Solve the problem for her.69.Men usually show friendship by ________.A. doing things togetherB. agreeing with each otherC. talking together oftenD. camping or playing tennis together70.What message does the writer want to send out?A. Both men and women should speak directly.B. Talking to women is easier than talking to men.C. There are many differences between men and women.D. It's beneficial to understand gender differences in using language.D B D A D D A A C B D B A C A C B BA D C AB A Cmanage trasubmar。

As he was easy to deal with, he was popular with his workmates, too. Though they made fun of him a great deal, he never got angry with them.But Jim's one great shortcoming was that he could never tell a lie, no matter how hard he tried, not even a little one. In fact, he was so honest and shy that he would blush (脸红) even when he was telling the truth. He used to stand in front of the mirror and practice lying while looking himself in the eye at the same time. As soon as he told a lie he'd see his face starting to go red he had to look away.One morning, however, he didn't feel like going to work. He had been to a party the night before that hadn't ended until the early hours of the morning. And so for the first time in his life he decided to take the day off. But in order to do this, he'd have to lie to his boss. He called his boss, pretending to be a woman. "I'm afraid Jim can't come to work today. He isn't feeling very well."Poor Jim was thankful that his boss couldn't see him just at that moment because his face was bright red."Thank you for letting me know," said Mr. Woods, his boss, and then just as he was about to hang up, he said, "Just a moment, madam, who's speaking?""Oh!" Jim stammered (口吃地说), and going all-out to make his voice sound like a woman's, he cried, "This is my landlady speaking!"81.Jim's face would always turn red because ________.A. he was honestB. he became embarrassed whenever he liedC. he did not like to talkD. he was getting sick82.Jim's weakness was that ________.A. it was easy for him to turn redB. he was honest with anyoneC. he could not tell a lieD. he could not speak on the telephone.83.Why did Jim spend so much time practicing how to lie?A.

He stammered.C. He wanted to tell a lie.D. He wanted to impress his boss.85.From the passage, we can conclude that Jim ________.A. told a lie once beforeB. cheated his bossC. made his boss angryD. could cheat no oneQuestions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.When the Japanese Prime Minister Noboru Takeshita visited Washington in 1988, he started an address to the National Press Club with a brief statement in English, in which he admitted that his accent was so bad that a translator was needed for the rest of his speech.Takeshita's problem is not unique in Japan. Many Japanese are eager to use the world's most popular foreign language but have trouble mastering it even when they are, like Takeshita, well educated. The Japanese like to decorate their own language with many English loaners, such as raisu for rice and sarariman for salary man. English is fashionable in Japanese advertising, packaging, and technology.Yet for all that intense interest, when English is spoken in Japan, it is generally spoken poorly. The problem is rooted in a much-praised educational system. Japanese schools turn out top graduates in mathematics and science but fail in teaching spoken English. The teachers, speaking in Japanese most of the time, are generally successful in instructing students in the complexities of written translation and English grammar, because entrance examinations for acceptance bytop-ranked universities stress nothing else.Dramatic changes in the examination system are unlikely. Yet small signs of progress are visible. This year, for example, the University of Tokyo will experiment with an English listening comprehension test as a minor element of the entrance exam. If it is successful, other universities may follow.86.The author told the story of Takeshita in order to show that_____.A. Japanese people are modestB. he didn't learn English wellC. many Japanese people are poor in spoken EnglishD. a translator is necessary for a Japanese person87.The general problem with Japanese English is attributed to_____.A. too many English words being used in JapaneseB. the educational systemC. the listening-comprehension testD. all of the above88.You may find a lot of English loaners in Japanese, because_____.A. the Japanese are fond of EnglishB. English is very effective in advertisingC. English is a language used all over the worldD. the Japanese language has limited vocabulary89.According to the passage, the educational system in Japan_____.A. will have dramatic changesB. is good at teaching EnglishC. is much criticizedD. will make some improvement in its English examination system90.It can be inferred that if a Japanese student is required to take an English grammar exam, he_____.A. will possibly failB. will probably do well on itC. may consult an English dictionaryD. will admit he can't do it。

This difference set Alfred Wegener, a young geologist, in thinking.He thought the error too great to be reasoned out easily. Wegener himselftook measurements and found that since 1869 the island had moved anadditional five eighths of a mile. After checking the positions of other arcticland masses, he concluded that all of them were drifting westward atdifferent speeds. From such date, Wegener developed his floatingcontinents theory. He pictured in mind an original supercontinent thathardened out of molten material making up the newborn earth; eventuallythe mass cracked and broke into several pieces – the present continents.The continents do seem to fit together like pieces of a puzzle, andfurthermore, some of the mountain ranges of different continents line uprather well, as if the land masses were at one time linked. As convincing asWegener’s argument appeared, many geologists refused to accept it, andthere was heated argument. Exactly how the continents were formed is stilla leading geophysical mystery, though today many geophysicists arereturning to the continental drift theory.The 1869 map indicated that ______________.所选答案： A.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage or dialog.People use more than just words to communicate. In fact, some researchers claim that less than half of a spoken message's real meaning is in the words used in the message. They say thatmost of a message's meaning comes from understanding how the speaker uses things like tone of voice and body language.Body language includes such things as the expression on the speaker's face, gestures that speaker makes with his or her hands, and the position of the speaker's body. Just as there are many different languages spoken around the world, there are many different ways for people to use body language, too. For example, gestures may imply different meanings in different cultures. Making a "thumbs up" sign in America means, "Great!" However, in Arab cultures, this gesture is extremely offensive.Although many gestures can be interpreted differently by different cultures, there are also many gestures that are almost universally interpreted in the same way. For example, by and large, a smile is understood as a sign of friendship or good will around the world. Also, using an open hand to gesture toward something is viewed as polite or friendly in most cultures.There are also some forms of body language that can be universally read with the meaning, "I am interested in you" or "I like you." Sometimes this kind of body language is used unconsciously between two people. These signs of interest include standing or sitting with both feet flat on the ground, mirroring or using the same gestures as the other person, and turning one's body to fully face the other person.Body language experts point out one important thing. The person's culture is only one factor that can influence his or her use of body language.

Some learners are very interested in finding out or learning grammar rules and doing lots of grammar exercises. Others hate grammar and think it is the most boring part of learning a new language. Whatever opinion you have, however, you cannot escape from grammar; it is in every sentence you read or write, speak or hear. Grammar is simply the word for the rules that people follow whenthey use a language. We need those rules in the same way as we need the rules in a game. If there are no rules, or if everybody follows their own rules, the game would soon break down. It's the same with language; without rules we would not be able to communicate with other p eople.So you cannot escape from grammar, but the key question here is: What is the best way to learn grammar? You can learn the rules of a game by simply playing the game. You will certainly make mistakes; you may even get hurt. Eventually, however, you will know how to play. Of course, the rules of a language are very much more complicated than the rules of any game, but in fact this is exactly how you learned your own language. Nobody taught you the rules of your mother tongue as you were growing up but now you never make a grammar mistake.Most people learning a new language do not have so much time and such an ideal situation. So, there is no easy answer to the question. There are just as many different opinions about teaching grammar as there are about learning grammar. Many teachers believe in the importance of grammar lessons devoted to a study of language rules and lots of practice exercises. Other teachers feel that grammar is best learned by doing different language activities without focusing so directly on the rules. Whatever your opinion about grammar and whichever is the way you are taught, you need to use different strategies to help you learn grammar more effectively.6.How is grammar defined in the passage?A.Grammar is something you cannot escape from.B.Grammar is a kind of game that requires a lot of practice.C.Grammar is a set of rules that are used in a language.D.Grammar is a strategy that consists of rules.7.According to the passage, why is learning grammar important?A.It helps you make no mistakes.B.It makes communication possible.C.It helps you not to get hurt.D.It makes playing games possible.8.In the writer's opinion, what is the best way to learn grammar?A.Playing games with a set of rules.B.Learning grammar naturally as you grow up.C.Recalling how you learned your mother tongue.D.Doing a lot of grammar exercises.9.What's the difference between teachers' opinions in the way of learning grammar?A.More exercises vs. more activities.B.More activities vs. less exercises.C.Less exercises vs. more grammar rules.D.More exercises vs. less activities.10.What is the main idea of the passage?A.Memorizing rules is required for learning grammar.B.Doing a lot of exercises helps learn grammar.C.Playing games helps learn grammar better.D.There are different ways to learn grammar.Part 7 Skimming and scanning(每小题：1 分，共10 分)Directions: You are going to read a passage or passages with 10 statements attached to each.

Many things contribute to it –smells, sounds, flavors, the very feeling of the air one is breathing. Of course, the natives’ unfamiliar language and behavior contribute to it too. People’s responses to culture shock vary greatly, from excitement and energetic action to withdrawal, depression, physical illness, and hostility. Aparticular individual might react to culture shock one way one day and another the next.The notion of culture shock calls two useful points to mind. First, most people experience some degree of culture shock when they go to a new country, whether they admit it to themselves and others or not. Culture shock is more a product of the situation of being in a new culture than it is of the traveler’s personal character.Second, culture shock, like other kinds of “shock”’, is normally transitory. It passes with time.Academic analysts of the culture shock idea point out that the experience of culture shock need not be negative. While there may be some unhappiness and unpleasantness along with the confusion and disorientation, the confusion and disorientation are necessary steps in learning about a new culture. If everything in the new place is just like home, no learning will come from being there.Which of the following best summarizes the topic of the passage?所选答案：A. The nature of culture shock and its causes.问题33 得2 分，满分2 分Which of the following statements regarding the causes ofculture shock is TRUE?所选答案：D. The language barrier is oneof the major causes of cultureshock.问题34 得2 分，满分2 分The word “transitory”(Para. 3) is closest in meaning to______________.所选答案： A. not lasting long问题35 得2 分，满分2 分We may conclude from the second paragraph that______________.所选答案：D.t people going to a foreigncountry for the first timeexperience culture shock问题36 得2 分，满分2 分According to academic analysts, _______________.所选答案：C. we should be aware of thepositive elements of culture shock。

No one has so set a whole world laughing as the little man with the walking stick and the oversized shoes.Much has been written about Chaplin's art and his career, and opinions haveranged widely. But perhaps those who called him "the truest human being of our time" came closest to the truth. Those who have called him a genius stress the timeless and common qualities in his work. It is an art filled with sad elements and deep human feeling, with which an audience cannot help but become involved. It is for these reasons, I believe, that the figure of Charlie has attracted generation after generation.All the writers who give accounts of Chaplin's life agree that Charlie's unhappy early years in the area in London where houses were dirty and worn had a great influence on his development and on the type of films he made. Chaplin himself emphasizes it in his memoirs (回忆录). The more one reads about his earliest period, the more one tends to agree. Indeed, his suffering youth had a lasting influence on him.Chaplin was never afraid to deal with subjects causing much disagreement in his films. He gave a humorous performance on war only a few weeks before the American soldiers came home from World War I in 1918. This was regarded as madness, but the performance was well received. So perfectly did it hit the nail on the head that even the returning soldiers found it impossible to hate it and deeply appreciated this short and humorous performance on what for them had been an unpleasant reality. Chaplin gave numerous performances attacking capital governments, satirizing (讽刺) the cruelty of the machine age, and even making fun of Hitler.Years after his death, the funny films of motion picture actor and director Charlie Chaplin continue to be well loved. He is particularly well known for his success as a creator of humorous presentations that make fun of people, the establishment, or networks.71.All of the following about Charlie Chaplin are true except_______________.A. he was born in the USAB. he was a great film actorC. he had an unhappy early lifeD. he made fun of Hitler in one of his films72.According to the author, Charlie Chaplin has been well loved bygeneration after generation because ______________.A. he set the whole world laughingB. his performances get people involvedC. his works appeal to people in different periodsD. both B and C73.According to the writers of Charlie Chaplin's life history, ____________ had a strong influence on the type of films he made.A. the society in which he livedB. the audience who praised and admired himC. his unhappy early years in the poor area in LondonD. those who called him a genius74.According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. There are timeless qualities in Chaplin's work because he didn't involve himself in political affairs.B. Chaplin became well loved years after his death.C. Chaplin's performance is funny without any sad elements.D. Chaplin's films are the combinations of funny and sad elements.75.This passage was ____________.A. written by Charlie ChaplinB. written about Charlie ChaplinC. advertising one of Charlie Chaplin's filmsD. written for students to learn film-makingQuestions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.Television carries more national advertising than any other medium in theUnited States. The same is true in some smaller countries such as Spain andPortugal, where it is the only medium reaching a general national audience. Inmany countries, (Sweden and Denmark, for example) the state-ownedtelevision accepts no advertising. In many other countries the amount ofcommercial (商业广告) time is very much limited, as in France, Germany, andItaly. Russian state-owned television began accepting a limited amount ofadvertising in 1988.The chief reason that television is so well liked among United Statesadvertisers is that it reaches a vast number of people at the same time. While itcan cost well over 100,000 dollars, a 30-second commercial on networktelevision can be seen and heard by as many as 25 million viewers. Forcompanies that must make prospects aware of their products and convincethem of their benefits immediately, there is nothing as efficient as televisionadvertising.Because it employs motion as well as words, pictures, sounds, and music,television is a valuable medium for products that lend themselves todemonstration. No other medium is as effective in showing how quickly an automobile can move or how well a certain type of wristwatch will stand up under heavy use and continue to run. In the same way, it is an ideal medium for showing how some products can make a person feel better about him- or herself, such as long-distance telephone calls.76.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. There is less advertising on TV in Spain than in Sweden.B. One can never see any commercial on TV in Denmark since it is notaccepted at all.C. The amount of commercial time is very much limited in most Europeancountries.D. French people don't have to worry about being troubled bycommercials.77.According to the passage, what is the main reason United Statesadvertisers like television so much?A. It communicates information more quickly.B. Every household has at least one TV set.C. It communicates information to a vast number of people at the sametime.D. American people love watching TV more than reading.78.The word prospects in the 2nd paragraph means _____________.A. potential customersB. competitorsC. working staff at TV stationsD. partners79.Which of the following is employed in TV advertising?A. MotionB. Sounds and music.C. PicturesD. All of the above.80.Which of the following statements is true?A. Television is as efficient as newspaper in demonstration benefits of acertain product or service.B. Television is a valuable medium in demonstrating benefits of a certainproduct or service.C. TV commercials can hardly help to communicate feelings.D. People use advertising on TV whenever necessary because of itseffectiveness.Questions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Failure to take time to plan and prepare is one of the major mistakes committed by sales negotiators (谈判). Related to this is weak information gathering. Neither your information gathering nor your planning can be effective without first engaging in negotiation with yourself or within your company, i.e., the agreements that may be necessary before negotiation with the customer.Once your face-to-face negotiating begins, any number of factors can influence the result. Going forth with a rigid mind-set (心态), giving concessions (让步) too early, answering too quickly to each demand, not calling time-out, and not putting yourself into the customer's shoes, are common mistakes in many sales negotiations. Finally, not being careful during the follow-through results in a lack of success even in an effective negotiation.Let us take the case of Ted Jeffries, a newly appointed sales representative for a maker of kitchen equipment. His main line is prefabricated (预制的) ovens. In addition to building additional sales with existing buyers, he is responsible for finding new buyers in some rapidly growing areas.Ted had been very effective with a previous company selling a line of building supplies to buyers by telephone. So he is not without some experience. He has some very positive selling strengths and he is doing reasonably well in closing some early sales. But he is beginning to find that some sales come at a "higher price" than others. Let's see what seems to be his problem. Ted is making his first call to long-time buyers, Lexington Kitchens. He hopes to renegotiate (重新谈判) the buying agreement with Ms. Sue Parker, manager of Lexington.81.According to the passage, what must be done before a sales negotiator(谈判者) works with his customer?A. Information gathering.B. Planning for the negotiation with the customer.C. Visiting his customers frequently.D. Reaching an agreement within the sales network.82.Which of the following is NOT listed as one of the mistakes that a salesnegotiator tends to make?A. Not flexible (灵活机动的) enough.B. Giving in to customers' demands too easily.C. Not being aware of the proper time to stop negotiating for the moment.D. Not leaving enough time to the other party for thinking about thepurchase.83.According to the passage, what is a sales negotiator advised to do afteran effective negotiation?A. Prepare for the next negotiation immediately.B. Spend some time on follow-up activities.C. Hold a celebration to encourage himself.D. Call the buyer immediately to express gratitude for their purchase.84.Which of the following statements about Ted is true?A. He is a salesperson with a fair amount of experience.B. He used to work for a maker of kitchen equipment and did his job well.C. His job is to deal with their customers.D. He is now selling building supplies to buyers.85.What might follow in Ted's story?A. Ted will contact customers to find out some problems.B. Ted will demand all buyers sell their products at the same prices.C. Ted will negotiate with Ms. Sue Parker about the buying agreement.窗体底端KEY:1-5 DABAC 6-10 CAABD 11-15 BACDD 16-20 CACDD21-25 CCABA 26-30 BAAAB 31-35 DACBA 36-40 DDBCD41-45 ABDCA 46-50 CDCABCLOZE: (51) through (52) negative (53) superb (54) putting in (55) whereas (56) challenge (57) bear (58) patience (59) commit (60) progress (61) Come on (62) adjustment (63) competent (64) appreciate (65) let down (66) give up (67) complaining (68) furthermore (69) not to mention (70) represents71-75 ADCDB 76-80 CCADB 81-85 DDBAC。
