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. Passage OneQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A sociologist once said “Th ere is a senseless notion thatchildren grow up and leave home when they’re 18, and the truth is far from that”. Today, unexpected numbers of young adults are living with their parents. “There is a major shift in the middle class,” declares sociologist fro m Northwestern University, whose son, 19, moved back in after an absence of eight months.Analysts cite a variety of reasons for this return to the nest. The marriage age is rising, a condition that makes home and its pleasantness particularly attractive to young people. A high divorce rate and a declining remarriage rate are sending economically pressed and emotionally hurt survivors back to parental shelters. For some, the expense of an away-from-home college education has become so excessively great that many students now attend local schools. Even after graduation, young people find their wings clipped by skyrocketing housing costs.Living at home, says a school teacher, continues to give her security and moral support. Her mother agreed, “It’s ridiculou s for the kids to pay all that money for rent. It makes sense for kids to stay at home.” But sharing the family home requires adjustments for all. There are the hassles over bathrooms, telephones and privacy. Some families, however, manage the delicate balancing act. But for others, it proves too difficult. Michelle Tim, 24, has been home three times-and left three times. “What I considered a social drink, my dad considered an alcohol problem,” she e xplains. “He never liked anyone I dated, so I either had to hide away or meet them at friends’ houses.”Just how long should adult children live with their parents before moving on? Most psychologists feel lengthy homecomings are a mistake. Children, struggling to establish separate identities, can end up with “a sense of inadequacy, defeat and failure.” And aging parents, who should be enjoyingsome financial and personal freedom, find themselves stuck with responsibilities. Many agree that brief visits, however, can work beneficially.26. There was apparently a trend in the U.S. ________.A) for young adults to leave their parents and live independentlyB) for middle class young adults to stay with their parentsC) for married young adults to move back home after a lengthy absenceD) for young adults to get jobs nearby in order to live with their parents27. Which of the following does not account for young adults returning to the nest?A) Young adults find housing costs too high.B) Young adults are psychologically and intellectually immature.C) Young adults seek parental comfort and moral support.D) Quite a number of young adults attend local schools.28. One of the disadvantages of young adults returning to stay with their parents is that ______.A) there will inevitably be inconveniences in everyday lifeB) the parents have to spend more money keeping a bigger family goingC) the young adults tend to be overprotected by their parentsD) public opinion is against young adults staying with their parents29. The word “hassles” in the passage (in Para.3) probably means ______.A) agreements B) worriesC) disadvantages D) quarrels30. According to the passage what is the best for both parents and children?A) They should adjust themselves to sharing the family expenses.B) Children should leave their parents when they are grown-up.C) Adult children should visit their parents from time to time.D) Parents should support their adult children when they are in trouble.Passage TwoQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The English have the reputation of being very different from all other nationalities. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons it may be fairly stated, the Englishman has developed some attitudes and habits distinguishing him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person among people he knows well. Before strangers he often seems inhibited(拘束的), even embarrassed. You have only to witness a railway compartment any morning or evening to see the truth. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing in a corner; no one speaks. An English wit once suggested to overseas visitors, “On entering a railway compartment shake hands with all the passenge rs.” Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, if broken, makes the person immediately the object of suspicion.It is well known that the English seldom show openlyextremes of enthusiasm, emotion etc. Of course, an Englishman feels no less than any other nationality. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A man of more emotio nal temperament might describe her as “a marvelous jewel”, while the Englishman will flatly state “Um, she’s all right”. An Englishman may recommend a highly successful and enjoyable film to a friend by commenting, “It’s not bad.” The overseas visitors must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest; he must realize that “all right”, “not bad” are very often used with the sense of “first class”, “excellent”. This special use of language is particularly common in English.31. One explanation for the different character of English people is that ____.A) they are geographically isolated from the European continentB) they have nothing to do with the other EuropeansC) they like living separatelyD) they like living on an island32.If you witness a rai lway compartment, you’ll find that ____.A) the English have much in commonB) the English are diligent readersC) the English are quiet and reservedD) the English have good manners33.According to the passage, on entering a railway compartment, an overseas visitor is expectedto ________.A) inquire about the code of behaviour in the trainB) shake hands with all passengersC) shake hands with the person you knowD. behave like an Englishman34.The English way of commenting on something or somebody suggests that ____.A) the English are modestB) the English feel no less than any other nationalityC) the English tend to display less emotion than they feelD) the English don’t take a strong interest in anything35.What does the passage mainly discuss?A) The differences between the English and the other Europeans.B) The character of English people.C) The shy Englishman.D) The code of behavior.Passage ThreeQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passageSome people are accustomed to thinking that facts must either be believed or disbelieved–as if belief were like a light switch with only two positions. My use of the bathtub trick is intended to illustrate that belief does not have to operate as a simple yes or no choice, all or nothing. Belief can be more conditional; it can be something that we decide to have “up to a point”or “to a degree”. And so, the question we might ask ourselves while reading does not have to be “Should I believe it or not?” This implies that the belief we have in any given fact, or in any given idea, is not determined by whether it sounds right or whether the source is an authority. It means that our beliefs are determined by the reasons that justify them. Belief is not a mechanical action, brought about by invariable relics of nature, but a human activity, the exercise of judgment. With this in mind, we might say that we perform this action better when we knowwhat the reasons are that have led to our belief, and why they are good reasons.These observations do not deprive us of our ability to believe in what we read. They are not intended to transform you from credulous believers into stubborn doubters. The process of weighing beliefs against the quality of reasons is one that you already go through all the time, whether you are aware of it or not. We all do. The practice of critical reading is the exercise of this kind of judgment on purpose. By doing it, we protect ourselves from being led into belief for inadequate reasons, but at the same time we open up our minds to the possibility of arriving at belief for adequate ones. If we decide to grant or withhold consent based on the quality of the reasons that we are given, we admit at the same time that two things are possible. We admit that we might consent less in the future if we discover that the reasons are not so good after all; and we admit that we might consent more if we are ever presented with better reasons than we had formerly know. This attitude is not pure skepticism any more than it is pure credulity. It issomewhere in between. It is the attitude of an open-minded thinker, of someone who wishes to be responsible for deciding for herself or himself what to believe.36. Which question is not encouraged to be asked while you are reading?A) Should I agree with the author?B) To what extent should I believe?C) Why should I consent to it?D) What makes it sound and reasonable?37. To believe or disbelieve what you read should be based on ________A) the facts that you are givenB) whether the author is open-minded or notC) the quality of reasons provided by the materialD) the assumption that you know everything about it38. As a human activity, weighing the facts about something is actually ________.A) determined by the rules of natureB) a purposeful performanceC) brought about even at birthD) experienced by everybody39. According to the author, which of the following statements is true?A) An open-minded thinker is responsible for what he says.B) Our attitude toward what we read may change if we are given more reasons.C) Critical reading can make us believe more in what we read.D) We ought to question the value of what we read if its source is not authoritative.40. What is the best title for this passage?A) Judgment and responsibility B) Reading and beliefC) Distrust and faith D) Reading and human activityPassage FourQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.“Experience may possibly be the best teacher, but it is not a particular good teacher.” You might think that Winston Churchill or perhaps Mark Twain spoke those words, but they actually come from James March, a professor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organization decision making. For years March (possibly be wisest philosopher of management) has studied how humans think and act, and he continues to do so inhis new book The Ambiguities of Experience.He begins by reminding us of just how firmly we have been sticking to the idea of experiential learning :“Experience is respected；experience is sought；experience is explained.”The problem is that learning from experience involves serious complications，ones that are part of the nature of experience itself and which March discusses in the body of this book.In one interesting part of book，for example，he turns a double eye toward the use of stories as the most effective way of experiential learning. He says“Th e more accurately reality is presented，the less understandable the story，and the more understandable the story, the less realistic it is.”Besides being a broadly knowledgeable researcher. March is also a poet, and his gift shines though in the depth of views he offers and the simple language he uses. Though the book is short, it is demanding；Don’t pick it up looking for quick, easy lessons. Rather, be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.41. According to the text, James March is ____________.A) a poet who uses experience in his writingB) a teacher who teaches story writing in universityC) a researcher who studies the way humans think and actD) a professor who helps organizations make important decisions42. According to James March, experience is ______________.A) overvalued B) easy to explainC) to be actively sought D) useless43. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A) Experience makes stories more accurate.B) Stories made interesting fail to fully present the truth.C) The use of stories is the best way of experiential learning.D) Stories are easier to understand when reality is more accurately described.44. What’s the purpose of this text?A) To introduce a book. B) To describe a researcher.C) To explain experiential learning. D) To discuss organizational decision making.45. The sentence “Experience may possibly be the best teacher, but it is not a particular goodteacher.” means ______.A) Experience can be applied to all casesB) Experience is a teacher but not the best teacherC) Experience is a solution to all your problemsD) Experience cannot be true with all casesPart III Vocabulary (10 points) Directions:There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part.

Each statementcontains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information isderived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Answer thequestions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Addicted, Really?A）M ental-health specialists disagree over whether to classify compulsive online behavior as addiction—and how to treat it. CRAIG SMALLWOOD, a disabled American war veteran, spent more than 20,000 hours over five years playing an online role-playing game called “Lineage II”. When NCsoft, the South Korean firm behind the game, accused him of breaking the game’s rules and banned him, he was plunged into depression, severe paranoia(偏执) and hallucinations（幻想）. He spent three weeks in hospital. He sued NCsoft for fraud and negligence（过失）, demanding over $9m in damages and claiming that the company acted negligentlyby failing to warn him of the danger that he would become “addicted” to the game.B）B ut does it make sense to talk of addiction to online activity? Mental-health specialists say three online behaviors can become problematic for many people: video games,pornography（色情作品）and messaging via e-mail and social networks. But there is far less agreement about whether any of this should be called “Internet addiction”—or how to treat it.C）S ome mental-health specialists wanted “Internet addiction” to be included in the fifth version of psychiatry’s bible, the “Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders”, known as DSM-V, which is currently being overhauled（全面修订）.The American Medical Association endorsed（赞成）the idea in 2007, only to backtrack（放弃）days later. The American Journal of Psychiatry called Internet addiction a “common disorder” and supported its recognition. Last year the DSM-V drafting group made its decision: Internet addiction would not be included as a “behavioral addiction”—only gambling made the cut—but it said further study was necessary.D）S keptics say there is nothing uniquely addictive about the Internet. Back in 2000 Joseph Walther, a communications professor at Michigan State University, co-wrote an article in which he suggested, tongue in cheek, that the criteria used to call someone an Internet addict might also show that most professors were “addicted” to academia（学术活动）. He argued that other factors, such as depression, are the real problem. He stands by that view today. “No scientific evidence has emerged to suggest that Internet use is a cause rather than a consequence of some other sort of issu e,” he says. “Focusing on and treating people for Internet addiction, rather than looking for underlying clinical issues, is unwise.”E）Others disagree. “That would be wrong,” says Kimberly Young, a researcher and therapist who has worked on Internet addiction since 1994. She insists that the Internet, with its powerfully immersive environments, creates new problems that people must learn to navigate（应对）. Otherwise，the changing lifestyle will affect the development of the society.F）No one disputes that online habits can turn toxic. Take South Korea, where widespread broadband means that the average high-school student plays video games for 23 hours each week. In 2007 the government estimated that around 210,000 children needed treatment for Internet addiction. Last year newspapers around the globe carried the story of a South Korean couple who fed their infant daughter so little that she starved to death. Instead of caring for the child, the couple spent most nights at an Internet café, sinking hours into a role-playing game in which they raised, fed and cared for a virtual daughter. And several South Korean men have died from exhaustion after marathon, multi-day gaming sessions.G）T he South Korean government has since asked game developers to adopt a gaming curfew (宵禁) for children, to prevent them playing between midnight and 8 am. Ithas also opened more than 100 clinics for Internet addiction and sponsored an “Internet rescue camp” for serious cases.H）B ut compulsive behavior is not limited to gamers. E-mail or web-use behaviors can also show signs of addiction. Getting through a business lunch in which no one pulls out a phone to check their messages now counts as a minor miracle in many quarters. A deluge（泛滥） of self-help books, most recently “Alone Together” b y Sherry Turkle, a social scientist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, offer advice on how to unplug（去除障碍）.I）Pornography is hardly new, either, but the Internet makes accessing it much easier than ever before. When something can be summoned in an instant via broadband, whether it is a game world, an e-mail inbox or pornographic material, it is harder to resist. New services lead to new complaints. When online auction sites first became popular, talk of “eBay addiction” soon followed. Dr Young says women complain to her now about addiction to Facebook—or even to “Farm Ville”, a game playable only within Facebook.J）Treatment centres have popped up around the world. In 2006 Amsterdam’s Smith & Jones facility billed itself as “the first and, currently, the only residential video-game treatment program in the world”. In America the Restart Internet Addiction Recovery Program claims to treat Internet addiction, gaming addiction, and even “texting addiction”. In China, meanwhile, military-style “boot camps” are the preferred way to treat Internet problems. After several deaths, however, scrutiny of the camps has intensified.K）Y et many people like feeling permanently connected. As Arikia Millikan, an American blogger, once put it, “If I could be jacked in at e very waking hour of the day, I would, and I think a lot of my peers would do the same.” Bob La Rose, an Internet specialist at Michigan State University, doesn’t believe her. In his research on college students, he found that most sense when they are “goin g overboard and restore self-control”. Less than 1% have a pathological（病态的） problem, he adds.For most people, Internet use “is just a habit—and one that brings us pleasure.”1.According to Joseph Walther, it is unwise to emphasize the treatment of Internetaddiction instead of seeking for potential clinical issues.2.As online games become popular, treatment centres have sprung up all over theworld.3.After playing online games continuously for days, several South Korean men wereexhausted to death.4.Smallwood sued NCsoft and claimed a huge compensation for fraud and itsnegligence of warning him of the danger of game addiction.5.In South Korea, a gaming curfew for children was adopted to prevent childrenplaying after midnight.6.Internet addiction still needs to be further studied though the DSM-V did notcategorize it as a “behavioral addiction”.7.An Internet specialist found that most college students could realize when they aregoing too far and restore self-control.8.According to mental-health specialists, for many people, video games, pornographyand messaging via e-mail and social networks can become problematic online behaviors.9.People regard it as a small miracle if nobody takes out a phone to read the messagesat a business lunch.10.Kimberly Young insists that people must learn to deal with new problems broughtabout by the Internet.Part III Listening ComprehensionSection ADirections:In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

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 Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake things for children that children can only do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that “reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible.”Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest (探索) for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. “Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children.”When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading.57. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that ________.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading58. The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.A. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable59. The word “scrutiny” (Line 3, Para. 3) most probably means “________”.A. inquiryB. observationC. controlD. suspicion60. According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when ________.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children’s experience61. The main idea of the passage is that ________.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated than generally believedPassage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.The failed Skylab will come screaming home to earth in disappointment sometime next month. But it willfall we know not where.That precise information is beyond even the calculations of scientists and their computers.The best they can tell us is that the space station, weighing 77 tons and as high as a 12 story building, will break into hundreds of pieces that will be scattered across a track 100 miles wide and 4,000 miles long.We are again exposed to one of those unexpected adventures, or misadventures, of science that attracts our attention from the boring routines of daily existence and encourages us to think a lot about man’s future.What worries Richard Smith, the Skylab’s director, is the “big pieces” that will come through the atmosphere, Two lumps, weighing 2 tons each, and ten, weighing at least 1,000 pounds each, will come in at speeds of hundreds of miles an hour and if they crash on land they will dig holes up to 100 feet deep.What worries us, with our lack of scientific knowledge and our quick imagination, is both the big and little pieces, although project officials say there is a very small chance that anyone will be injured by them.That’s good to know, but it doesn’t remove the doubts of the millions who still remember the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island. That accident took place in 1979 in spite of what the officials had assured us as to the safety of the nuclear reactor.62. Where the Skylab will fall ________.A. is kept secretB. has been made publicC. has been predicted by scientistsD. can’t be predicted even by computers63. According to the passage, what does an incident such as the failed Skylab lead us to do?A. Not to believe in officials.B. To think about our future.C. To trust computers more.D. To fear for our lives.64. The author suggests that ________.A. the danger of the Skylab’s fall has been overestimatedB. it’s useless to worry over things you can’t do anything aboutC. the danger of the Skylab’s fall has been underestimatedD. computers can solve the problem caused by the broken Skylab65. The author refers to Three Mile Island ________.A. because he is doubtful about what the officials saidB. because he fears that a piece of the Skylab may strike a nuclear power plantC. because he is afraid of the use of nuclear powerD. because the nuclear reactor there and the Skylab were both built by the same company66. This passage is mainly about the author’s ________.A. interest in the failure of the SkylabB. willingness to give his adviceC. eagerness to see more new scientific discoveriesD. concern that science cannot answer all questionsSection C Blank FillingDirections:In this section, there are ten sentences with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the sentences. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter.

Reading comprehension. 15%Passage 1What is meant by the term economic resources? In general, these are all the natural, man-made, and human resources that go into the production of goods and services. This obviously covers a lot of ground: factories and farms, tools and machines, transportation and communication facilities, all types of natural resources, and labor. Economic resources can be broken down into two general categories: property resources - land and capital, and human resources - labor and entrepreneurial skills.What do economists mean by land? Much more than non-economists. Land refers to all natural resources that are usable in the production process: cultivatable land, forests, mineral and oil deposits, and so on. What about capital? Capital goods are all the man-made aids to producing, storing, transporting, and distributing goods and services. Capital goods differ from consumer goods in that the latter satisfy wants directly, while the former do so indirectly by facilitating the production of consumer goods. It should be noted that capitals as defined here do not refer to money. Money, as such, produces nothing.The term labor refers to the physical and mental talents of humans used to produce goods or services (with the exception of a certain set of human talents, entrepreneurial skills, which will be considered separately because of their special significance). Thus the services of a factory worker or an office worker, a ballet dancer or an astronaut all fall under the general heading of labor. (238w)1. In Paragraph 1, the author uses the expression "This obviously covers a lot ofground" to indicate that ------.A. the factories and farms discussed in the passage are very largeB. e conomic resources will be discussed in great depthC. the topic of economic resources is a broad oneD. land is an important concept in economics2.

Which of the following could be considered a kind of capital goods as defined inthe passage?A. A rail road.B. Money.C. A coal deposit.D. Humanskills.4. The word "heading" in the last sentence is closest in meaning to ____.A. directionB. practiceC. categoryD. utility5. What is the author's main purpose in writing this passage?A. To explain the concept of labor.B. T o criticize certain uses of capital.C. To contrast capital goods and consumer goods.D. To define economic resources.Passage 2Large companies need a way to reach the sayings of the public at large. The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know. And while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects. So companies turn to the public, inviting people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future profits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in their business through a stock exchange. By doing so they can put into use the savings of individuals and institutions, both at home and overseas.When the investor needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other person who is seeking to invest his money. Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the government or by local authorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railways, etc. this country could not function. All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone. The government, local authorities, and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to a stock exchange.There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another this new money must come from the investment funds of the country. Stock exchanges exist to provide a channel through which these funds can reach those who need financing. (333w)1. Almost all companies involved in production and development must ____.A. rely on their own financial resourcesB. persuade banks to provide long-term financeC. borrow large sums of money from friends and people they knowD. depend on the public as a whole for financing2. The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projects is ____.A. repaid to its original owners as soon as possibleB. raised by selling sharesC. exchanged for partial ownership of the stock exchangeD. invested in different companies on the stock exchange3. When the investors want their money back they ____.A. ask another company to obtain their money for themB. look for other people to borrow money fromC. put their shares back on the marketD. transfer their money to a more successful company4. Many essential services on which we depend are ____.A. run by industriesB. in constant need of financial supportC. financed wholly by rates and taxesD. unable to provide for the needsof the population5. The stock exchange makes it possible for the government, local authorities andnationalized industries ------.A. to raise money to finance new developmentsB. to make certain everybody saves moneyC. to borrow as much money as they wishD. to make certain everybody lends money to themVI.
