(阅读理解题)The United States has more than one hundred twenty medical colleges. The American Association of Medical Colleges says these schools have about seventy thousand students.How hard is it to get into one of the top medical schools, like for example the one at Yale University in Connecticut? Last year almost three thousand seven hundred students hoped to get accepted there. Only one hundred seventy-six -- or less than five percent -- were admitted.People who want to become medical doctors often study large amounts of biology, chemistry and other science. Some students work for a year or two in a medical or research job before theytry to get accepted to medical school.Medical students spend their first two years in classroom study. They learn about the body and all of its systems. And they begin studying diseases -- how to recognize and treat them. By the third year, students guided by experienced doctors begin working with patients in hospitals. As the students watch and learn, they think about the kind of medicine they would like to practice as doctors. During the fourth year, students begin applying to hospital programs for the additional training they will need after medical school. Competition for a residency at a top hospital can be fierce.A medical education can be very costly, especially at a private school. One year at a private medical college can cost forty thousand dollars or more. The average at a public medical school is more than fifteen thousand dollars. Most students have to take out loans to pay for medical school. Many finish their education heavily in debt.Doctors are among the highest paid professionals in the United States. Specialists in big cities are generally the highest paid. But there are also doctors who earn considerably less, including those in poor communities.(1).

(阅读理解题)Of the many problems in the world today, none is as widespread, or as old, as crime. Crime has many forms, including crimes against property, person, and government. Crime, in all its forms, penetrates every layer of society and touches every human being. You may never have been robbed, but you suffer the increased cost of store-bought items because of others’ shoplifting. Your house is not worth as much today as it was a few years ago because of the increased crime rate in your neighborhood. Perhaps your business is not doing as well as it used to because tourism is down due to increased terrorism in your part of the world. Crime, especially violent crime, has risen to a point where many people are afraid to walk alone in their own neighborhoods, afraid to open their door after dark, afraid to speak out and voice their own opinions. Some citizens have reacted by arming themselves with various weapons, legal and illegal, to defend themselves.Citizen groups have taken the law into their own hands by forming their own vigilante groups to administer “judgment” when they feel that their criminal justice system has not performed its duty.Experts argue whether the number of crimes committed is actually on the rise or whether there is simply a rise in the number of crimes reported. This issue is particularly true in cases of marriage violence, the abuse of spouse or children. Throughout much of history, cases of family violence and neglect often went unreported because of the attitude of society, which considered family matters to be private.Other experts argue about who is really to blame for criminal behavior: the individual or society. Researchers in the United States and Canada have identified several factors in society that contribute to the crime rate: massive urbanization, unemployment and poverty, and a large immigrant population. Other countries are more affected by factors such as politics, government corruption, and religion.(1). ( 单选题 ) What does the passage mainly discuss? (本题2.0分)A、Crime－the widespread problem.B、The results caused by increasing violent crime.C、Factors contributing to the crime rate.D、Citizen groups combating crimes.学生答案：C标准答案：A解析：得分：0(2).

( 单选题 ) Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? (本题2.0分)A、Since you have never been robbed, you are not a victim of crime.B、Some people use illegal weapons to defend themselves.C、Only the individual should be responsible for the criminal behavior.D、Family violence and neglect are considered family matters, and therefore private, so they are not crimes.学生答案：D标准答案：B解析：得分：033.

They protect the students' self-esteem and encourage individual development.(本题5.0分)学生答案：美国的教师非常小心不要伤害了学生的感情，他们会保护学生的自尊和鼓励个人发展标准答案：美国老师很小心不去伤害学生的感情。

The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work,In the years following the First World War, honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whilhem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize for Physics, and he was highly honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism (纳粹主义) when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.21. The first paragraph is mainly about _____.A. a new outlook of the universeB. the feelings of an American college presidentC. the change in human thought caused by EinsteinD. the difficulty in teaching Einstein's theory22. From the second paragraph, we know Albert Einstein ____.A. enjoyed world popularityB. was the head of an academyC. was a famous teacherD. enjoyed studying wars23. Which of the following statements about Einstein is true?A. He achieved more than any other scientists in history.B. Our ideas about the universe differ from one another because of him.C. He kept working until peace came in 1918.D. His research practically stopped during the First World War.24. In the years following the First World War, _____.A. Einstein began to be accepted even by ordinary menB. more and more honors were granted to EinsteinC. Einstein became the head of the Prussian Academy of ScienceD. Einstein was not honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism25. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _____.A. Albert Einstein was interested in nothing but scienceB. Einstein was forced to serve in the German armyC. Einstein made a lot more breakthroughs in his research after the First World WarD. his reputation was ruined because of NazismPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.In many countries, marriage is a practical matter. A marriage provides a safe and stable home for the husband and wife. It also joins two families, which benefits the couple's parents and makes them happy. Marriage also brings children, making sure the couple will be taken care of in old age. Because a marriage is important for the whole family, some cultures don't let young people choose whom to marry.Just as there are many different reasons for marriage, there are also many different wedding rituals. Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the happy couple. In a typical Western wedding, the bride seeks good luck by wearing "something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue." Something old represents the past. Something new represents success in the future. Something borrowed reminds the bride she can get help from her friends and family. And something blue reminds her to be true to her husband.In Poland, one wedding tradition is not only lucky, but also very practical. The wedding guests pin money to the bride's dress while she is dancing. The money is meant to bring kick and to help the young couple build their new life. In Bermuda, the young couple plants a tree in the yard of their new home. Once they move in, they take good care of the tree and make it grow. The planting of the tree is a good metaphor (比喻) for marriage. A truly good marriage is something that grows with care.26. Which of the following statements DOES NOT support the idea that marriage is a practical matter?A. The couple may have a safe and stable home through their marriage.B. The parents had better help their children choose whom to marry.C. A marriage benefits the couple's parents and makes them happy.D. A marriage brings children who will take care of the couple when they are old.27. The word "rituals" (para.3, line 2) means _____.A. formsB. customsC. traditionsD. ceremonies28. In a typical Western wedding, the bride wears something blue to ________.A. seek good luckB. represent the pastC. represent success in the futureD. remind her to be true to her husbandA, people wish them to take care of each otherB. people wish them to get practical benefits from the marriageC. people wish them to have good luck in their new lifeD. people wish them to make money at the wedding ceremony30. Which of the following statements best summarizes the subject of this passage?A. People across the world get married in different ways and for different reasons.B. Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the young couple.C. A truly good marriage is something that grows with care.D. In many countries, marriage is a practical matter.Passage ThreeQuestion 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.While popular in the U.S., the April Fool's Day tradition is even more prevalent in European countries, such as France and Great Britain. Although the roots of the traditional tricking are unclear, the French and the British both have claims on the origin of the celebration.31. Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?A. April Fool's Day is more popular in the U.S.B. April Fool's Day is more popular in France and Great Britain.C.

(阅读理解题)Many visitors finds the fast pace at which American people move very troubling. One’s first impression is likely to be that everyone is in a rush. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going and are very impatient if they are delayed even for a brief moment. At first, this may seem unfriendly to you. Drivers will rush you; storekeepers will be in a hurry as they serve you; people will push past you as they walk along the street. You will miss smiles, brief conversations with people as you shop or dine away from home. Do not think that because Americans are in such a hurry they are unfriendly. Often, life is much slower outside the big cities, as is true in other countries as well. Americans who live in cities such as New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles, often think that everyone is equally in a hurry to get things done; they expect others to “push back”, just as city people do in Tokyo, Singapore or Paris, for example. But when they discover that you are a stranger, most Americans become quite kindly and will take great care to help you. Many of them first came to the city as strangers and they remember how frightening a new city can be .If you need help orwant to ask a question, choose a friendly looking person and say, “I am a stranger here. Can you help me?”Most people will stop, smile at you, and help you find you way or answer your questions. But you must let them know that you need help. Otherwise they are likely to pass you by, not noticing that you are new to the city and in need of help. Occasionally, you may find someone too busy or perhaps too rushed to give you aid. If this happens, do not be discouraged; just ask someone else. Most Americans enjoy helping a stranger.(1). (单选题) Many people who first visit the United States will find that _______.(本题2.0分)A、America is a highly developed countryB、American city people seem to be always in a rushC、the fast pace in American life often causes much troubleD、Americans are impatient and unfriendly people学生答案： B标准答案：B解析：得分： 2(2).

(阅读理解题)Many people think that when they become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth. The world is full of very richpeople who are as miserable as if they were living in hell. We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems. Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness. Lottery winnings do not bring happiness. Gambling winnings do not bring happiness. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort. If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means, you will know that it is ill-earned money. If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, you will not be happy with it. You will think you are a base person. Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem. Happiness is not an end; it is a process. It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, “There is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” There is no use saying “Someday when I achieve these goals, when I get a car, build a house and own my own business, then I will be really happy.” Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life tomake you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something missing.(1). (单选题) What does “nothing is further from the truth”mean?(本题2.0分)A、Something. is completely untrue.B、Something is completely true.C、We can find out the truth.D、We cannot find out the truth.学生答案： A标准答案：A解析：得分： 2(2).

Happiness is the way.” mean according to the passage?(本题2.0分)A、Happiness is not an end; it is a process.B、People do not know how to get happiness.C、It is hard to get happiness.D、Happiness is what you feel.学生答案： A标准答案：A解析：(5). (单选题) What is the meaning of the word “unfulfilled”?(本题2.0分)A、uncontrolableB、impoliteC、dissatisfiedD、abnormal学生答案： C标准答案：C解析：得分： 238. (阅读理解题)The room was dark and still. Only one boy was still awake. He sat on the edge of his bed at a far corner of the room. Slowly and carefully, he made small holes across apiece of paper with a sharp stylus (铁笔) . Every two or three minutes he stopped and ran his fingers across the raised dots on the opposite side of the paper. A whisper camefrom the next bed, “Louis, are you still making dots? You’d better stop and get some rest. The teacher will be angry if you fall asleep in class. ” The reply came slowly.“I know. I’m almost finished now. Go back to sleep, Gauthier. ” Louis Braille, inventor of the Braille reading system (盲文) for the blind, put his paper and stylus on atable behind his bed. He stood up and walked across the room to an open window. He hardly noticed the cool April wind brushing his face. He knew his system would work despitewhat others thought.(1).

Each passage is followed by some questions. 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. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Philanthropy is a way that people and organizations show concern for others or work to improve the world. Approximately 72 percent of Americans donate to charity (慈善机构), and 51 percent do volunteer work. About 2 millions not-for-profit organizations and charities in the United States today receive this help.There are three types of philanthropists: individuals, foundations, and private corporations. Individuals give money or volunteer their time to support causes that are important to them. Foundations are organizations started by very wealthy individuals. Their “business” is not to make a profit but to give money away to not-for-profits.Private corporations may also use a portion of their business profits to make donations, or they may give away their products or services free of charge. However, foundations and corporations are responsible for only 20 percent of charitable donations; 80 percent comes from individuals.What makes people and institutions give away their time and money? One reason is altruism, the unselfish desire to help other people and make the world a better place. Other reasons involve personal interest. Under US tax law, an individual or business does not have to pay income tax on money that is donated to charity. For extremely wealthy individuals and corporations, this can mean millions of dollars they do not have to pay in taxes to the government. In addition to tax benefits, donors often receive favorable publicity for making donations, and they have an opportunity to influence the world around them.31. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Philanthropy has become an accepted American custom.B. Philanthropy has made the US a great influence in the world.C. More and more organizations rely on philanthropy nowadays.D. Religion plays an important role in the philanthropy in the US.32. Which of the following is NOT characteristic of philanthropists?A. To donate money.B. To do volunteer work.C. To pay income tax.D. To provide free services.33. What is the main source of donations in the United States?A. Foundations.B. Individuals.C. The government.D. Private corporations.34. How are foundations different from private corporations in the aspect of philanthropy?A. They don’t make a profit.B. They receive more publicity.C. They are set up by very rich individuals.D. They don’t donate money to individuals.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Individuals tend to donate money to become famous.B. Foundations gain more power because of philanthropy.C. Some people donate money for practical purposes.D. The US tax law discourages people from donating money.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:A lot of people think that if they put off the decision of whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships, the problems they are having will magically somehow heal themselves or disappear. They won’t.If you don’t invest some quality time now in ta king a true, honest and truthful look at the state of your relationship, you could stay stuck in this place of indecision for a very long time. Many people waste so much precious time when they could be experiencing an incredible relationship filled with love, passion and joy, either in their current relationship or one that is more of what they want. We encourage you to take an honest look at your situation and feel how much pain you’ve been feeling about this relationship. If having a great relationship i s important to you, you need to decide that you’re not willing to live without the love, passion, intimacy, and tenderness. You have to take the first step to create the kind of relationship and love you want in your life.We’re not suggesting that you sho uld leave your current relationship or marriage and head out looking for the new love of your life. That’s your decision and one that should only be made after some careful insight and thinking. What we are telling you is that life is too short to go throu gh it without having the love you want and the love that’s possible for all of us. If you are in a relationship that is causing you to wonder whetheryou should stay in it or leave—i t’s important that you take some time now to make it clear so that you’ll be able to ask yourself openly and honestly whether you’ll be able to heal the challenges.36. To make a decision about whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships quicker, people should ________.A. leave the problems until they heal themselves or disappearB. head out looking for the new love of his /her lifeC. seek expert’s advice and not make a quick decisionD. have a clear understanding of the state of their relationships37. What does the word “incredible” (Para. 2) probably mean in the passage?A. Marvelous.B. Impossible.C. Unusual.D. Unnecessary.38. According to the passage, if one person is not willing to live without love, passion, tenderness and so on, he must ________.A. leave the current relationshipB. take an honest look at his situationC. spend time experiencing an incredible relationshipD. take the first step to create that kind of relationship39. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. If one starts to wonder about the current relationship, it is time to end it.B. Making the decision about one’s relationship needs careful insight.C. A relationship that brings you pain is not necessarily a bad one.D. Life is too short for people to find true love.40. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. persuade people to find a better relationshipB. ask people to invest quality time in their relationshipsC. give people some advice on how to stay in or leave their relationshipsD. advise people how to have a relationship with love, passion and so onSection BDirections:In this section there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Be sure to write your answers on Answer Sheet (2).German careers or jobs fall into several categories. First, there are positions that require strong ability in German with a company in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. This category may also include a job requiring good German and/or bilingual (双语的) skills within a company doing business in the US, Canada, Mexico or elsewhere. Secondly, there are jobs that can be done in English in German Europe. Then there are German companies abroad.Most minor and many major positions are filled by recruiting German, Austrian or Swiss nationals. If you are already in German Europe, you may have a better chance of finding a job. In any case, it is best if your company can handle all the formalities involved when a foreign national takes a job in Germany. There are also relocation services that can help with this if you don’t have any ideas yourself.The German unemployment rate has remained at a fairly high level over the last decade. It is almost impossible for a non-German to get a job in Germany unless she/he can prove that it can’t be done by a German national. In certain fields, such as computer science or information systems, “green card” foreign workers have been imported, but this practice is still uncommon. The reality of searching for and finding a suitable position in German Europe or with a German firm means two main things: knowledge and planning. Too many times, job seekers have unrealistic expectations. Often they overestimate their language skills and underestimate the level of competition. Anotherdanger is ignoring culture shock. That’s why we also offer links to culture-related sites.For getting most German jobs, it is your ability in a field—computers, teaching, advertising, etc.—rather than your German skills that will be the biggest factor in a successful search. But all other things being equal between you and another candidate, it is the person with the best language skills who usually gets the job.41. What is the requirement of the job within a company doing business in the US,Canada, Mexico or elsewhere included in the first category?42. What might the company do for the benefit of a foreign employee?43. What seems to be “hot” fields if you are to find a job in German?44. What is the reason for the author to offer links to culture-related sites?45. What is more important to get most German jobs according to the passage?Part III Vocabulary and Structure (25 marks)Section A (15 marks, 0.5 mark each)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Test Three (A) I Reading ComprehensionPassage OneThe man who, legend has it, escaped from an early grave when his uncle pulled him from drowning in a dirty pond is notorious for his dirty deeds but that what cannot be forgotten arehis achievements in the 1986 World Cup.Forget the handball against England, feel the quality of his 50-yard solo goal in the same game and the near repeat performance in the semi-final against Belgium. The Argentina sideof the 1986 was functional and hard-working but it was Maradona who fired them to the finaland then set up two of the goals in their 3-2 win over West Germany in the final.In 1990, a barely-fit Maradona fought his way to the final where the Germans took their revenge. Few people shared Diego’s pos t-match tears. In fact many rejoiced that such an ugly brute of a team had lost.Eight years before, in Spain, Maradona , then newly arrived at Barcelona, disgraced himself by being sent off in a Second Phase game with Brazil. Even four years before thatthe 18-year-old Maradona was a source of great controversy when he was left out of the victorious squad that won on home ground.USA 1994 was the end for Maradona as a player. Right after the Nigeria game, he was picked for drugs-screening and tested positive for banned stimulant ephedrine (麻黄硷). He was banned from the rest of the tournament and the team fell apart, going out in the second round to Romania.21. How many World Cups are mentioned in the passage?A) Three.
