Each passage is followed by somequestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 41-45 are based on the following passageWhat do we mean by a satisfactory standard of living? Obviously, it must include the basic necessities of life such as food, clothing and shelter. To get these necessities on regular basis, a person must have a reliable income. But we have other needs which would probably also be included as basic, such as health and education facilities.We may think of all of these as our needs. Yet most of us would be far from satisfied if we had nothing more than these which are supplied for us. We all enjoy extra income to spend on things like books, sports or hobbies. Sometimes we save some of this extra income to pay for future expense of this type on holidays. So we must add our wants to our basic needs. Our standard of living is the degree, to which these needs and wants are satisfied.But as time goes on, what we think of as our basic needs changes. Twenty years ago a television would have been a luxury, and still is in many countries now. Even now we cannot say it is a need in the same sense as food, clothing and shelter. Yet if most of the people of a country have one, it comes to be accepted as a need. It is possible therefore to have food, clothing and shelter and still be poor by the standards of our own society.41. What we need in life is divided into _________ according to this article.A. the basic necessities and luxuryB. many kinds of need such as food, clothing and housesC. four groups the basic necessities, luxury, reliable income and future expenseD. the basic necessities and reliable income42. A person who gets the basic necessities must _______ according to the writer.A. have a reliable incomeB. learn how to please his managerC. finish his work ahead the timeD. get a good education43. We all enjoyA. having only reliable income.B. having reliable income and extra income.C. having nothing more than food and clothing.D. having nothing more than reliable income.44. With time going on,A. a luxury may change into a need which most people want to get.B. the basic needs are getting smaller and smaller.C. a luxury and the basic needs can be exchanged.D. the basic needs can be changed into a luxury.45. If most of the people of a country have a television, weA. can say the television is a need in the same sense as food and clothing and shelter.B. can say the television must be in the basic necessities.C. cannot say the television is in the basic necessities.D. can say every family must have one.Question 46-50 are based on the following passageThe place of the child in society has varied for thousands of years and has been affected by different cultures and religions. In ancient times unwanted children were occasionally abandoned, put to death, exploited, or offered for religious sacrifices, and in any event a large percentage of them did n’t survive their physically hazardous existence to achieve maturity.In Western civilization within the last few hundred years, there have been many changes in attitude toward the young. In agricultural Europe, and later with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the children of the poor worked long hours for little or no pay, and there was no public concern for their safety or welfare. Punishment could be brutal and severe, and sometimes religious passions were expressed violently with a view toward saving the child's soul.By the eighteenth century the harsh, deterministic, doctrinaire methods began to show some change. Society slowly accorded children a role of more importance. Books were written expressly for them and gradually laws were passed for their protection.In the past few decades parents have become more attentive to the needs of their children. Better health care is available and education is no longer reserved for a limited few. With so many now able to go to college, many educators feel that we have too many students and too few competent scholars. Some say the pendulum in child rearing has swung so far towardpermissiveness that many children are growing up alienated from society and with no respect for law or parental authority.The tendency today is for teachers and parents to emphasize individual responsibility and to stress that educational goals for students should be tailored to their chosen vocations rather than provide a generalized higher education.46. What does the article say about children?A. They have always been the hope of mankind.B. In certain periods of history no one cared about them.C. In the mid-eighteenth century western attitudes toward children began to change.D. There were laws barring child labor during the industrial revolution.47. What does the article say about children in ancient times?A. They were often cruelly beaten.B. At times they were used as sacrificial offerings.C. People who didn't want children usually murdered them.D. Though they were abused or neglected by their parents, children survived to adulthoodwith little difficulty.48. What changes have occurred in the past few decades with regard to the child's place insociety?A. Child raising has become more permissive.B. Public health care has improved so much that children now need no particular health care.C. Children are becoming more intelligent.D. Children are becoming more respectful toward their parents.49. What is the present trend in child discipline and education?A. Giving as many young people as possible a popular generalized college education.B. Creating more regimentation of the individual.C. Teaching children to conform to rigorous rules.D. Emphasizing individual responsibility.50. Implied, but not directly stated, is the followingA. Methods used to treat children in the past were worse than those at present.B. There are laws passed for protection of children.C. Parents pay more attention to the needs of their children.D. many books have been written for children.Section B: Short Answer Questions (20 %)Directions: There are two passages in this part.

We have simplified them so that students have only to demonstrate a need to borrow money to further（促进）their academic career.If you demonstrate a capacity to repay, your loan will normally be interest free.If you have financial needs that you cannot meet from any other sources, come to Student Services and ask for an application form. At the same time make an appointment to see the Student Welfare Officer. You must bring your application form filled out with as much information as you are able to supply.Normally, the maximum amount that you may borrow is $500 but in exceptional circumstances, and with supporting documentation, the Student Loan Committee will lend up to $1000. The repayment period for a $500 loan is up to nine months and up to eighteen months for $1000.If you have repayment difficulties, you must make an appointment with the Student Welfare Officer to submit an application to the Student Loan Committee requesting an extension of time on your payment period. Normally you will be expected to have repaid at least 50 per cent of what you have borrowed before an extension will be granted.Non-payment of your loan by an agreed repayment time could result in your being charged 15 percent interest, having your examination results stopped, being unable to enroll further or being unable to graduate. As a last resort you may also be reported and listed as a NTU debtor with the Credit Reference Association.56.
