Reading Comprehension. (2 points for each, altogether 30 points)Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1Billy is 14 years old and in the ninth grade. He has a part-time job which gets him up every morning at 5 o'clock. He is a newspaper boy. Each morning ，Billy leaves the house at 5:15 to go to the corner ，where the newspapers are. The newspapers are delivered to the corner by truck at midnight. He always takes a wagon to carry them.In the winter, it is still dark when he gets up ，but during the rest of the year it is light. Billy must deliver the newspapers to the houses of people on his route in all kinds of weather. He tries to put each paper on the porch(门廊)where it will be protected from wind and rain or snow. His customers think he does a good job. Sometimes they give him tips(小费).Billy earns about $ 70 per month ，and he is saving some of the money to go to college. He spends the rest on records and clothes. Once a month ，he has to collect money from his customers. Since many of them work during the day ，Billy has to collect the money at night. Sometimes ，when Billy is sick ，his brother has to deliver the newspapers. Once ，Billy's father had to help. Billy has seventy customers now ，but he hopes to get more soon. Someday ，if he gets more customers ，Billy might win a prize for being an outstanding(突出的)newspaper boy. He wants to win a trip to Europe ，but he will be happy if he wins a new bicycle. 31. Keeping a part-time job tells us that Billy ______. [A] has to make a living by himself[B] can not get any support from his family [C] has to pay for his school tuition [D] is independent and self-confident 32. He did his work ______. [A] perfectly well [B] twice a week [C] only for fun [D] to support his family 33. To deliver newspapers means ______. [A] to post newspapers [B] to send newspapers [C] to sell newspapers [D] None of the above. 34. One of the purposes of delivering newspapers is ______. [A] to get some money for college education[A] for [B] to [C] in [D] with [A] without [B] in [C] after [D] with [A] little [B] spare [C] full [D] us [A] away [B] up [C] out [D] to [A] belongs [B] will belong [C] has belonged [D] had belonged [A] choice [B] life [C] moments [D] time [A] movie [B] program [C] opera [D] music [A] at [B] beside [C] near [D] by [A] for [B] since [C] unless [D] providing [A] on [B] at [C] in [D] during[C] to have more customers[D] None of the above.35. The prize for an outstanding newspaper boy is ______.[A] a trip to Europe [B] a new bicycle[C] a tip [D] A or BPassage 2Friends or contemporaries(同龄人)are a great influence on the actions，thoughts，and words of young people. This influence，known as peer pressure，is quite common among children. Why are children so easily affected by what their peers do，think，or say?Most of us，children included，feel a strong need to be liked by others. We seek acceptance and friendship. In order to gain them，we act like our friends，and listen to their advice，whether or not it is helpful. Some of us even begin to think like our friends，sometimes at the expense of our own beliefs and values. An example that comes to mind is the young person who gets involved with drugs because his peer group is experimenting with them. Parents may try to exert pressure to keep him away from drugs，but frequently peer pressure is too great. This conflict between being your own person and，at the same time，responding to the pressures of a group remains a problem for young people.36. The passage mainly talks about _____.[A] friendship[B] peer pressure[C] conflicts between young people and their parents[D] problems for young people37. In the third sentence of the second paragraph，"them" refers to _____.[A] children[B] strong needs to be liked by others[C] acceptance and friendship[D] our friends' advice38. "being your own person” in the last sentence most probably means _____.[A] acting according to your own beliefs and values[B] trying not to tell any lie[C] keeping yourself away from drugs[D] having enough self-confidence39. The second paragraph focuses on _____.[A] what peer pressure is[B] how young people start to take drugs[C] what parents should do for their children[D] why young people are easily influenced by their peers40. Who can influence us on the actions, thoughts? _____.[A] Teacher[B] Father[C] Mother[D] Friends and contemporariesPassage 3Background music may seem harmless，but it can have a powerful effect on those who hear it. Recorded background music first found its way into factories，shops and restaurants in the US. But it soon spread to other parts ofTo begin with，"muzak"（音乐广播网）was intended simply to create a soothing atmosphere. Recently，however，it's become big business - thanks in part to recent research. Dr. Ronald Milliman，an American marketing expert，has shown that music can boost(促进)sales or increase factory production by as much as a third.But，it has to be light music. A fast one has no effect at all on sales. Slow music can increase receipts by 38%. This is probably because shoppers slow down and have more opportunity to spot items they like to buy. Yet，slow music isn't always answer. liman found，for example，that in restaurants slow music meant customers took longer to eat their meals，which reduced overall sales. So restaurant owners might be well advised to play up-tempo music to keep the customers moving - unless of course，the resulting indigestion leads to complaints！41. The reason why background music is so popular is that ______.[A] it is harmless everywhere[B] it can boost sales in all places[C] it can help to create a soothing atmosphere[D] it can help to have more meals42. Background music means ______.[A] light music[B] slow music[C] fast music[D] the music you are listening to while you are doing something43. Restaurant owners complain about background music because ______.[A] it results in indigestion [B] it keeps customers moving[C] it increases their sales [D] it decreases their sales44. The word "up-tempo music"(para. 3 the last line but two) probably means ______.[A] slow music [B] light music[C] fast music [D] classical music45. According to this passage, we learned that ______[A] Dr. Milliman made background music.[B] background music spread to the world by Dr. Milliman.[C] Dr. Milliman found fast music meant customers took longer to eat.[D] background music can have a powerful effect on some people.IV. Translation. (2 points for each, altogether 10 points)Directions:There are five sentences followed by the translated versions in this section. Beneath each sentence there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right translation for each sentence. Write your answers on the answer sheet.46.战争已经威胁了这些人们几十年，他们似乎已学会接受这一现实了。
