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

He was not satisfied with the position and wanted to find something better.Yet he did not want to lose his position in bank before he had got another one, so he prepared a letter about himself, with the words "HELP! I AM A PRISONER OF THE BANK OF RURITANIA!" in big letters across the top. Then he sent it to several other banks, asking them for a job.A few days later, one of these letters came into the hands of Herman's boss at the bank; someone had given it to him at a party. The next morning, Herman's boss asked him to come into his room and said, "Herman, I have some very good news for you. The bank of Ruritania is setting you free!"(15 分)(1).

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

Chess must be one of the oldest games in the world. An Arab traveller in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played 'long, long ago.' Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name 'chess' is interesting. When one player is attacking the other's king, he says in English, 'check'. When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says 'check mate'. These words come from Persian 'Shah mat' means 'the king is dead'. That is when the game is over, and one player has won.Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It would be interesting to know why this has happened. Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You don't have to be a champion in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able to play many people at the same time. The record was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people played chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world.(15 分)(1). Chess was played in India long before 900. (3 分)A. TB. F(2). One player has won the game when he attacks the other player's king. (3 分)A. TB. F(3). Chess is a game for all sorts of people. (3 分)A. TB. F(4). Only two people can play chess sitting at the same table.(3 分)A. TB. F(5). According to the old rules of the game, the king could not move anywhere. (3 分)A. TB. F二词汇与语法 (共5题,总分值10分 )4. The boy is not happy at the new school. He has _______A___________ friends there.

The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories(卡路里) you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight.When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or a simple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.Keep busy! This way you will not be tempted to go off the diet. Make full use of opportunities to exercise. Try walking instead of riding whenever possible. Happy dieting!1. What is the main idea of the passage?A) How to diet. B) Why we should diet.C) What we should diet. D) Where we should diet.2. While dieting you should ________.A) choose fried foods B) choose low-calorie foodC) choose snack as hamburger in McDonalds D) talk to your doctor3.

If you want to start a weight control program, you should ________.A) ask your doctor B) plan meals and choose low-calorie foodsC) do some exercise D) all of the abovePassage twoA house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called “take a mortgage (抵押)." The bank usually lends money or gives a mortgae for twenty-five years. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $ 50 000. In other words, they will have a $ 50 000 mortgage.How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank. The bank will research you financial (金融的) history and decide if they think you are a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have, what kind of salary you make, and how long you have had the job. They will also want to know how much money you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the-price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment.6.

During the 19th century, scientists found that when certain parts of the brain of a person were hurt, he would lose the power of doingcertain things. And so people thought that each part of the brain does a different job. But modem research discovered that this is not so, for it is not easy to show exactly what each part of the brain does.In the past fifty years there has been a great increase in the amount of research done on the brain. Scientists have found out the way the brain works is not so simple as people in general may think. Chemists fell us that about 100 000 chemical changes take place in the brain every second. Some recent researches also suggest that we can remember everything that happens to us. We, may not be able to think of the things we have heard and seen, but it is kept there in the storehouse ( 宝库 ) of the humanbrain. Earlier scientists thought that is not true. As long as the brain is given plenty of exercise, it keeps its power. It has been proved that an old person who has always been active in the mind has a quicker mind than a young person who has only done physical work without using much of his brain.(1).

People landing at London''s Heathrow airport have something newto look at as they fly over Britain''s capital city. It is attractive, simple and a little strange. The Millennium Dome ( 千禧穹 )is a huge semi-circle of plastic and steel and it contains the largest public space in the world. It has been built to house an exhibition of all that is best in British life, learning and leisure.The Millennium Dome was designed by Sir Richard Rogers, one ofBritain''s most famous architects ( 建筑师 ) . His work points the way to new developments in building. Think of it as a giant symbolof the buildings in which we will all be living and working in the near-future.Buildings are also a part of history. They express the culture ofthe times. Sir Richard Rogers is aware of this responsibility. While different designers have individual styles, their work also has a common style. That is: to express the values of the information age. What is an "information age" building? The Dome is a good example. After theMillennium exhibition ends, it will be used for another purpose. Just as people no longer have "jobs for life", modem buildings are designed for a number of different uses. Another Richard Roger''s building, the PompidouCenter in France, uses the idea that information is communication. Instead of being hidden in the walls, heating pipes and elevators are open to public view. The PompidouCenter is a very honest building. It tells you how it works.(1). The Millennium Dome has been originally built to holdan exhibition ( )A. of different building designsB. .of everything that can draw the attention of people C.of the finest things in BritainD.of recent developments in information technology(2).

Sir Richard Rogers clearly knows mat it is his duty to ( )A. create something out of a unique styleB.house those people who will often change their jobs C.make his buildings historic onesD.construct a building that can meet the changes of the modem age(4). The PompidouCenter in France is outstanding in the fact that ( )A. people in it are able to visit each other convenientlyB.visitors can see clearly the structure and facilities of the whole buildingC.it makes use of the best techniques invented in the information ageD.it was designed and built by an honest British designer(5). This short passage mainly tells us about ( )A. the unique contribution of a famous architectB.modem buildings of various stylesC.a few developments in house-buildingD.the common features of British and French buildings4. One Sunday, Mark decided to go sailing in his boat with hisfriendDan, but Dan happened to be away. Dan''s brother John offered to goinstead though he did not know anything about sailing. Mark agreed and they set out to sea.Soon they found themselves in a thick fog. Mark was sure they would be hit by a big ship.

In the early morning he fell asleep. He was having abad dream when a shout woke him up. A ship, the Good Hope, came up and he climbed onto it and thanked the captain.

But in the nine days since thefederal cigarette tax more than doubled —to $1. 01 per pack — smokers have jammed telephone“ quit crosslines” a the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every taxincrease.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve publichealth, health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, whichis when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $ 10.06 at onedrugstore Wednesday.

On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, and the same question was always asked :what about crime? But when college officials always gave the same answer—“ That ’ s not a problem here,” —Mahoney began to feel uneasy.“ No crime whatsoever?” comments Mahoney today.“ I just don’ t buy it.” Nor should he: in 1999 the U. S. Department of education had reent-count: 2.0; mports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses.“ Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college, d Nichols, author”ofsays DaviCreating a Safe Campus.“ Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation.”But getting accurate information isn ’ t easy. Colleges must report crime统计statistics(数字)by law, but some holdback for fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest on es looking dangerous.“ The truth may not always be serious,”warms S.

You find them incomic books, on the TV and the big screen.In a survey of fans by the sci-fi ( 科幻 ) and fantasy website, , Batman, 70 years old this year, was voted Britain's favorite superhero.Unlike many crime-fighting superheroes Batman has no special powers. He can't fly like Superman or shoot asticky (粘性的 ) web like Spider-Man.Bruce Wayne is born to a wealthy Gotham City business family. However, when his parents are murdered his lifechanges completely.Wayne feels anger at their deaths and guilty that he did not prevent them. He travels around the world learning howto fight. Upon returning to Gotham, he creates a disguise ( 伪装 ) to enable him to fight crime without being recognized.A childhood fear of bats leads him to choose to dress as one. His idea is that through the bat persona ( 角色 ) he can prove to himself that he has overcome his childhood fears.Wayne is the CEO of the company he inherits ( 继承 ) from his father. He seems to live the lifestyle of a millionaire playboy. But this is a ruse ( 计策 ). He works hard at the image to allow himself the freedom he needs to do his work as a crime fighter. "Bruce Wayne, playboy" is the disguise; Batman is the real person."Wayne is not a born superhero. Instead, he is a real, complex person," said Dace Golder, editor of the website.

A striking example is provided by Dr. Otto Loewi, a pharmacologist ( 药理学家 ) and winner of a Nobel Prize. Loewi had spent years studying the chemical transmission ( 传送 ) of nerve impulses ( 脉搏 ). A major breakthrough in his research came when he dreamed of an experiment three nights in a row. The first two nights he woke up and wrote down the experiment quickly and untidily on paper. But the next morning, he couldn't tell what the notes meant. On the third night, he got up after having the dream. This time, instead of making notes he went straight to his laboratory and performed the important experiment. Loewi later said that if the experiment had occurred to him while awake he would not have given it another thought.Loewi's experiment gives some insight into using dreams to produce creative solutions. Nervous feelings are reduced during dreaming, which may be especially useful in solving problems that require a fresh point of view. Being able to take advantage of dreams for solving is improved if you "set" yourself before retiring. Before you go to bed, try to think intently about a problem you wish to solve. Bury yourself in the problem by stating it clearly and reviewing all relevant information. Then use the suggestions listed in the previous section to catch your dreams. Although this method is not guaranteed to produce an original solution or a new insight, it is certain to be an adventure. About half of a group of college students using the method for a week recalled a dream that helped them solve a personal problem. ( 1 分)(1) Through Loewi's experiment, the author tries to prove that .( 0.2 分)A.very little is really known about the meaning of dreamsB.it is possible to "catch" one's dreams by planning before going to sleepC.dreams can be useful in producing creative solutions to one'sproblems D.it helped in the study of transmission of nerve impulses 标准答案: C(2) The first paragraph is mainly organized by .(0.2分)A.classifying types of experimentsB.summarizing the work of one researcherparing and exploring historical casesD.telling in time order about one man's research标准答案:D(3) If Loewi had thought of the experiment while awake, he would have .( 0.2 分)A.asked someone else to do itB.thought it was a bad ideaC.tried it out on his ownD.thought it was a wise idea标准答案:B(4) The author probably thinks that .(0.2分)A.Loewi should not have conducted his experimentB.dreaming is of very little value to most peopleC.nervous feelings may stop someone thinking of useful ideasD.college students should not try out dream experiments标准答案:C(5) According to the passage, the author seems to be in favor of .(0.2分)A.seeking creative solutionsB.avoiding scientific experimentsC.nervous feelings before dreamsD.becoming a famous scientist标准答案:A5. Federal regulators Wednesday approved a plan to create a nationwide emergency alert ( 警报 ) system using textmessages delivered to cell phones.Text messages have exploded in popularity in recent years,particularly among young people.The wireless industrytrade association,CTIA,estimates ( 估计 ) more than 48 billion text messages are sent each month.The plan comes from the Warning Alert and Response Network Act,a 2006 federal law that requires improvement to thenation ’ s emergency alert system.The act tasked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) with coming upwith new ways to alert the public about emergencies.“ The ability to deliver accurate and time ly warnings and alerts through cell phones and other mobile services isan important next step in our efforts to help ensure that the American public has the information they need to takeaction to protect themselves and their families before,and during,di sasters and other emergencies,” FCC Chairman Kevin Martin said following approval of the plan.Participation in the alert system by carriers-telecommunications companies-is voluntary,but it has received solidsupport from the wireless industry.The program would be optional for cell phone users.They also may not be charged for receiving alerts.There would be three different types of messages,according to the rules.The first would be a national alert from the president,likely involving a terrorist attack or natural disaster.The secondwould involve“ approaching threats” ,which could include natural disasters like hurricanes or storms or even university shootings.The third would be reserved for child abduction ( 绑架 ) emergencies,or so-called Amber Alerts.The service could be in place by 2010.

In 1993, the owners of a large hotel andof several houses discovered, to their horror, that their gardens had disappeared overnight. The sea had eateninto the soft limestone cliffs on which they had been built. While experts were studying the problem, the hotel and several houses disappeared altogether, sliding down the cliff and into the sea.Erosion ( 侵蚀 ) of the white cliffs along the south coast of England has always been a problem but it has becomemore serious in recent years. Dozens of homes have had to be abandoned as the sea has crept farther and farther inland. Experts have studied the areas most affected and have drawn up a map for local people, forecasting theyear in which their homes will be swallowed up by the hungry sea.Angry owners have called on the Government to erect sea defenses to protect their homes. Government surveyors have pointed out that in most cases, this is impossible. New sea walls would cost hundreds of millions of pounds and would merely make the waves and currents go further along the coast, shifting the problem from one area to another. The danger is likely to continue, they say, until the waves reach an inland area of hard rock which will not be eatenas limestone is. Meanwhile, if you want to buy a cheap house with an uncertain future, apply to a house agent in oneof the threatened areas on the south coast of England. You can get a house for a knockdown price but it may turnout to be a knockdown home.

Americans are pound of their variety and individuality, yet they love and respect few things more than a uniform, whether it is the uniform of an elevator operator or the uniform of a five-star general.Why are uniforms so popular in the United States?Among the arguments for uniforms, one of the first is that in the eyes of most people they look more professionalthan civilian (百姓的) clothes . People have become conditioned to expect superior quality from a man who wears a uniform . The television repairman who wears uniform tends to inspire more trust than one who appears in civilian clothes . Faith in the skill of a garage mechanic is increased by a uniform . What easier way is there for a nurse, a policeman, a barber, or a waiter to lose professional identity (身份) than to step out of uniform? Uniforms also have many practical benefits. They save on other clothes . They save on laundry bills . They are tax-deductible (可减税的). They are often more comfortable and more durable than civilian clothes.Primary among the arguments against uniforms is their lack of variety and the consequent loss of individuality experienced by people who must wear them. Though there are many types of uniforms, the wearer of any particular type is generally stuck with it, without change, until retirement . When people look alike, they tend to think, speak, and act similarly, on the job at least.Uniforms also give rise to some practical problems . Though they are long-lasting, often their initial expense is greater than the cost of civilian clothes . Some uniforms are also expensive to maintain, requiring professional dry cleaning rather than the home laundering possible with many types of civilian clothes.(1 分)(1) It is surprising that Americans who worship variety and individuality _______.( 0.2 分)A.still judge a man by his clothesB.hold the uniform in such high regardC.enjoy having a professional identityD.will respect an elevator operator as much as a general in uniform标准答案: B(2) People are accustomed to think that a man in uniform _______.( 0.2 分)A.suggests quality workB.discards his social identityC.appears to be more practicalD.looks superior to a person in civilian clothes标准答案: A(3) The chief function of a uniform is to _______.( 0.2 分)A.provide practical benefits to the wearerB.make the wearer catch the public eyeC.inspire the wearer’ s confidence in himselfD.provide the wearer with a professional identity标准答案: D(4) According to the passage, people wearing uniforms _______.( 0.2 分)A.are usually helpfulB.have little or no individual freedomC.tend to lose their individualityD.enjoy greater popularity标准答案: C(5) The best title for this passage would be _______.( 0.2 分)A.Uniforms and SocietyB.The Importance of Wearing a UniformC.Practical Benefits of Wearing a UniformD.Advantages and Disadvantages of Uniforms标准答案: D10. Priscilla Ouchida’ s- efficient“energy ” house turned out to be a horrible dream. When she and her engineerhusband married a few years ago, they built a $100,000, three-bedroom home in California. Tightly sealed toprevent air leaks, the house was equipped with small double-paned ( 双层玻璃的 ) windows and several otherenergy-saving features. Problems began as soon as the couple moved in,however. Priscilla’ s eyes burned. Her throatwas constantly dry. She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep. It was as though she had suddenlydeveloped a strange illness.Experts finally traced the cause of her illness. The level of formaldehyde (甲醛 ) gas in her kitchen was twice themaximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers. The source of the gas? Her new kitchen cabinets andwall-to-wall carpeting.The Ouchidas are victims of indoor air pollution, which is not given sufficient attention partly because of thenation ’ s drive to save energy. The problem itself isn’ t new. “ The indoor environment was dirty long before en conservation came along,” says Moschandreas, a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies in Maryland.conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in some cases.”The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes rather than old ones. Back in the dayswhen energy was cheap, home builders didn’ t worry much about unsealed cracksauseof.Becsuch leaks, the air inan average home was replaced by fresh outdoor air about once an hour. As a result, the pollutants generated inmost households seldom build up to dangerous levels. ( 1 分)(1) It can be learned from the passage that the Ouchidas house ________.(0.2分)A.is well worth the money spent on its constructionB.is almost faultless from the point of energy conservationC.failed to meet energy conservation standardsD.was designed and constructed in a scientific way标准答案:B(2) What m ade the Ouchidas’ new house a horrible dream?(0.2分)ck of fresh air.B.Poor quality of building materials.C.Gas leakage in the kitchen.D.The newly painted walls.标准答案:A(3) The word“ accentuate” (Line 4, Para. 3) most probably means(0.2分“)________” .A.relieveB.accelerateC.worsenD.improve标准答案:C(4) Why were cracks in old houses not a big concern?(0.2分)。

Each passage is followed by some questions 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 centre. Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.People enjoy talking about “firsts”. They like to remember their first love or their first car. But, notall first are their happy ones. Few people enjoy recalling the firsts that are bad.One of bad but important firsts was the first car accident. Autos( 汽车 ) were still young when it happened. The crash took place in New York City. The year was 1896. The month was May. A man from Massachusetts was visiting the city in his new car. At the time, bicycle riders were still get used to the new set of wheels on the road. No one is sure who was at fault. In any case, the bike and the car collided. The man on the bike was injured. The driver of the car had to stay in prison and wait for the hospital report on the bicycle rider. Luckily the rider was not killed.Three years later, another automobile accident took place. It was again in New York City. A man named Henry Bliss stepped off a streetcar. He was hit by a passing car. Once again, no one is sure just how it happened or whose fault it was. The driver if the car was put in prison. Poor Mr. Bliss became the first person to die in a car accident.21.

There was often tension between each established group of immigrants and each succeeding group. As each group became more financially successful, and more powerful,they excluded newcomers from full participation in the society. Prejudice and discrimination are pert of our history; however, this prejudice treatment of different groups is nowhere more unjust with black Americans.Blacks had distinct disadvantages. For the most part, they came to the“land of opportunity”as《大学英语(I )》试卷本卷共14页第3页《大学英语(I)》试卷本卷共14页第4页slaves and they were not free to keep their heritage and cultural traditions. Unlike most European immigrants, blacks did not have the protection of a support group; sometimes slave owners separated members of the same family. They could not mix easily with the established society either because of their skin color. It was difficult for them to adapt the American culture. Even after they became free people, they still experienced discrimination in employment, housing, education, and even in public facilities, such as restrooms.26. Prejudice and discrimination ______.A. were goneB. have been existing in the American SocietyC. don’texclude new immigrants from participation in the societyD. are mainly caused by the slavery27.

Their tables will be set with the good dishes and silver, and the dress code will be Sunday-best.But in many other homes, this china-and-silver elegance has given way to a stoneware (粗陶 ) -and-stainless informality, with dresses assuming an equally casual-Friday look. For hosts and guests, the change means greater simplicity and comfort. For makers of fine china in Britain, it spells econo times.Last week Royal Doulton, the largest employer in Stoke-on-Trent, announced that it is elim1,000jobs --- one-fifth of its total workforce. That brings to more than 4,000 the number of positio in 18 months in the pottery ( 陶瓷 )region. Wedgwood and other pottery factories made cuts earl Although a strong pound and weak markets in Asia play a role in the downsizing, the layoff have their roots in earthshaking social shifts. A spokesman for Royal Doulton admitted that the c "has been somewhat slow in catching up with the trend" toward casual dining. Families eat together often, he explained, and more people eat alone, either because they are single or they eat in fro television;Even dinner parties, if they happen at all, have gone casual. In a time of long work hours an family schedules, busy hosts insist, rightly, that it's better to share a takeout pizza on paper plates in the family room than to wait for the perfect moment or a "real" dinner party. Too often, t moment never comes. Iron a fine-patterned tablecloth? Forget it. Polish the silver? Who has time Yet the loss of formality has its down side. The fine points of etiquette (礼节)that childre have learned at the table by observation or instruction from parents and grandparents ("Che mouth closed." "Keep your elbows off the table.") must be picked up elsewhere. Some compa offer etiquette seminars for employees who may be competent professionally but clueless social31. The trend toward casual dining has resulted in_____.A.bankruptcy of fine china manufacturersB.shrinking of the pottery industryC.restructuring of large enterprisesD.economic recession in Great Britain32. Which of the following may be the best reason for casual dining?A.Family members need more time to relax.B.Busy schedules leave people no time for formality.C.People want to practice economy in times of scarcity.D.Young people won't follow the etiquette of the older generation.33. It can be learned from the passage that Royal Doulton is_____.A. a retailer of stainless steel tablewareB. a dealer in stonewareC. a pottery chain storeD. a producer of fine china34. The main cause of the layoffs in the pottery industry is_____.A.the increased value of the poundB.the economic recession in AsiaC.the change in people's way of life《大学英语(I )》试卷本卷共14页第5页《大学英语(I)》试卷本卷共14页第6页D.the fierce competition at home and abroad35. Refined table manners, though less popular than before in current social life_____.A. are still a must on certain occasionsB. are bound to return sooner or laterC. are still being taught by parents at homeD. can help improve personal relationshipsPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.An election year is one I which all four numbers are evenly divisible by four (1944, 1940, etc.). Since 1840, American presidents elected in years ending in zero have destined to die in office. William H. Harrison, the man who served the shortest term, died of pneumonia several weeks after his inauguration.Abraham Lincoln was one of the four presidents who were assassinated. He was elected in 1860 and his untimely death came just five years later. James A. Garfield, a former Union army general from Ohio, was shot during his first year in office (1881) by a man to whom he wouldn ’t give a job.While in his second term of office (1901), William McKinley, another Ohioan, attended the Pan-American Expedition at Baffalo, New York. During the reception, he was assassinated while shaking hands with some of the guests.Three years after his election in 1920, Warren G . Harding died in office. Although it was never proved, many believe he was poisoned.Franklin D. Roosevelt had been elected four times (1932, 1936, 1940, 1944) the only man to serve so long a term. He had contracted Polio in 1941 and died of illness in 1945.John F. Kennedy, the last of the line, was assassinated in 1963, only three years after his election.36.Which of the following was NOT an election year?A. 1960B. 1952C. 1889D. 182437.Which president served the shortest term in office?A.

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:The good news about Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) is that it gives free medical help to everyone who needs it. Sick people don’t have to pay to see the doctor, or to stay in hospital, and they only pay part of the cost of their medicines. The bad news is that the NHS is always running out of money. The British government spends even less on health than the American government. And in the USA sick people also have to pay every time they see a doctor. The NHS has been admired and enjoyed by British people since 1946 when it started. The idea then was to look after people ―from the cradle to the grave‖. Free medicine was part of the ―welfare state‖, which gave free education to the young, money to the unemployed, and pensions to the old.Slowly, as the years pass, problems have grown up. Governments are finding that the bills are getting bigger and bigger. In 1982, £14,000 million was spent on health. One reason for this is that there are many more old people now than there were in 1946. Forty percent of NHS money goes to looking after the old. Some people say that the NHS is a luxury Britain can not afford. They want to bring back more private medicine, for which people would pay. Free medicine, they say, should be given only to the poor. Other people, including many doctors, disagree. Everyone, they say, has the right to the same medical help. In a two-part system, the rich would always get the best. This would not befair. People also disagree about how NHS money should be spent. Should £15,000 be spent on each heart transplant operation, when there are not enough beds for thousands of old people in pain? Should abortions be paid for by the NHS? Should more money be spent on the mentally ill? Shouldn’t doctors and nurses be better paid?The questions go on and on—but so does the NHS. And millions of British people are thankful that it’s there.31. In Britain sick people have to pay some money to__________.A. see a doctorB. stay in a hospitalC. get some medicineD. have an operation32. In Britain more money is spent on health than before because__________.A. more people get illB. there are more old peopleC. medicines become more expensiveD. doctors and nurses are better paid33. Some people want to have more private medicine in Britain becausethey__________.A. don’t trust the NHSD. believe that everyone has the right to medical help34. What is the biggest problem the NHS is facing?A. Shortage of money.B. Criticisms from the people.C. Arguments about its function.D. Pressure from the government.35.

Whether there should be free medical care for the mentally ill.C. Whether people should ever be cared for from birth to death.D.

Several suggestions might prove helpful to the applicant when he or she is preparing for the actual interview.A job applicant should gather certain types of information before the interview. First, the applicant should know what kind of job he wants and how that job relates to his career objective. It is important that the applicant be able to state why he wishes to work for a particular company. Second, the applicant should seek as much information as possible concerning the company, such as the location, the financial situation of the company, plans for expansion, and company philosophy. Information about most big corporations is available in reference books and periodicals.After gathering information concerning the company, the applicant is ready for the interview. The interviewer’s first impression comes from the interviewee’s appearance. For most interviews, the appropriate dress for a man is a conservative(保守的) dark colored suit with a long sleeve white or light blue shirt and conservative tie.Although hairstyle and dress are matters of personal taste, many personnel directors get first impressions from these characteristics. For example, one recent college graduate, who felt himself qualified, interviewed for a public relations job. However, the personnel manager considered this young man’s long hair, sloppy dress, and overly casual mannerunsuited for this particular position.36. For whom is the passage most likely written?A. An employee. C. An interviewee.B. An employer. D. An interviewer.37. As the author suggests, what the applicant should know before the interview is_____.A .the type of work he wants and his career expectationB. his career objective a particular company will decideC. the reasons why a particular company wants to employ himD. all of the above38. Before the interview, the applicant should obtain some information about _____.A. most big corporationsD. business and philosophy39. What the applicant wears, as the author suggests, can make him become _____.A. expressive C. informativeB. impressive D. conservative40. What does the passage tell us through the example in the last paragraph?A. The importance of personal taste.B. The importance of public relations.C. The importance of self-confidence.D. The importance of a first impression.Section BDirections:In this section there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions orcomplete the statements with no more than 10 words.Questions 41-45 are based on the following passage.I am not a computer expert. I have been in the field for only a short time. I never learned much in the way of science or math. And I am quite puzzled by things like engineering or electronics.Then why am I able to write about computers? I can write on this subject because of these shortcomings. The last two years of learning have been an ordeal (考验) for me. By hard work I have managed to learn enough to use computers fairly well, and to work with people who know a great deal more than I. Since I have learned all this at such personal cost, I would like to share my knowledge with others. More and more people want to know about computers, and want to know quickly.The best way to learn is to take a course. However, many people do not have the time for this. They will have to find some other ways to get some basic information. I hope to be able to help them by writing about some of the things I have learned myself.I have a home computer on which I’ve learned in my own time. I have used it like a home study course. I have sat down with it day after day, night after night. I have forced it to give up some of its secrets. Now I can use it to do some of the work that I get paid for.Some things about computers are easier than you may think. First, computers are logical. Things that at first seem difficult will make sense to you after you learn the rules. Second, it is really not hard to learn enough to use today’s machines. You do not need to be a great brain. But you do have to learn to think in new ways. And you do have to keep a good bit of information in your head. Finally, there are many people around who are really enthusiastic about computers. These people are always happy to be of help.41.

What’s the author’s purpose of writing the article?____________ ___________ _________ _________ ___________ __________ __________ __________ __________ ________.43. What do people think of computers when they first begin to learn to use them?____________ ___________ _________ _________ ___________ __________ __________ __________ __________ ________.45. According to the author, who can you turn to for help when learning the computer?____________ ___________ _________ _________ ___________ __________ __________ __________ __________ __________.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (25 marks)Section A (15 marks, 0.5 mark each)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Reading comprehension.(This part is to test your reading abilities.Read the following two passages and finish each statement with the four choices marked A, B, C and D.) (20 points in total, 2 points for each)Passage 1A foreigner’s first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in a rush-often under pressure. City people appear always to be hurrying to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store, and elbowing others as they try to complete their errands (任务). Racing through daytimemeals is part of the pace of life in this country.Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don’t, waiters will hurry you.You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain courtesy point.The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse.” We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some returnbe this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee they may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a caféor coffeehouse. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly.41. Which of the following statements is wrong? __________A. Americans seem to be always under pressure.B. Americans attach less importance to patience.C. Americans don’t care much about ritual socializing.D. Americans are impolite to their business colleagues.42. In the fourth paragraph, “a high priority” means __________.A. a less important thingB. a first concernC. a good businessD. an attractive gift43. Americans evaluate a business colleague __________.A. through social courtesyB. through prolonged business talksC. by establishing business relationsD. by learning about their past performance44. This passage mainly talks about __________.A. how Americans treasure their timeB. how busy Americans are every dayC. how Americans do business with foreignersD. what American way of life is like45. We can infer from the passage that the author’s tone in writing is___________.A. criticalB. ironicalC. appreciativeD. objectivePassage 2Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo.
