The Romans had warm public baths. In some baths, as many as 3,000 persons could bathe at the same time.Treating disease by taking baths has been popular for centuries. Modern medical baths first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700s bathing had also become popular in the United States.For many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for one’s health. Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided, and perfume was often used to cover up body smells!By the 1700s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly, people began to bathe more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became common.In the United Sates ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th century, Many Americans were known as “The Great Unwashed!” In one American city, for example, a person was only allowed to take a bath every thirty days! That was a law!Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health. Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases. As a result, in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people bathe once a day at least. They consider a daily bath necessary to good health.41.

Each company or organization usually uses its own specially designed form that, although it generally asks for the same basic information, may vary in detail.

Write carefully and neatly.――Use words that describe the responsibility and different aspects of each job you have held rather than list only the duties you performed.――Particularly describe social activities that show your involvement in the community, or activities in which you held a teaching or coaching role.――Pay particular attention if there is a section on the form that asks you to comment on how your education and past experience have especially prepared you for the position.――Think this through very carefully before you write so that what you say shows a natural progression from past experience to the job you are applying for. If you can, and if they fit naturally ,adda few words to demonstrate how the position fits your overall career plan.46. The first sentence of the passage means that .A. you may have to fill in a long application formB. the filling-in of an application form takes much timeC. any slight error in the tiring filling-in of the forms should be avoidedD. application forms are usually difficult to read and require good skills to fill in47.

How? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual.

Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait.It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob(门把)on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.51.

Reading ComprehensionIt was not much fun to travel on one of the old sailing ships. Life was hard for both passengers and crew. In the 17th century, sailing ships were small and roiled(摇荡)heavily in rough seas, so most of the passengers were seasick. There were no toilets, and the spaces below deck where passengers had to stay during gales(狂风)were often not more than 5 foot high. Water was scarce and the little water they got was brown and smelt terrible. Food was a problem, too—there was only salted meat, ship ' s biscuits and cheese, but the cheese was so hard that sailors often made buttons out of it for their jackets and trousers. There were no vegetables or fruit, so the people on board often fell ill. The sailors, however, were a bit better off than the passengers. They each had a bottle of beer a day, and they needed. The work they had to do was hard and dangerous. Courage was needed, for the heavy sails had to be set and taken down in all kinds of weather, and quite often sailors were swept overboard in a gale. Almost the worst thing about the voyages was the time they took up to 70 days for the journey across the Atlantic. Not surprisingly, everybody was overjoyed when they at last approached land and stepped ashore. But some ships never arrived.SSS_SINGLE_SEL1.In the 17th century______.A life on old sailing ships was enjoyableB people enjoyed sailing old. ships in rough seasC most of the passengers **fortable when the ship was rollingD it was very painful for both passengers and crew during the voyageSSS_SINGLE_SEL2.The passengers______when the ship was heavily rolling.A slept wellB could drink a lot of waterC had to stay below deckD had a big room of more than 5 foot highSSS_SINGLE_SEL3.Which of the following statements is true?A Passengers had a lot of vegetables, but no fruit.B The sailors had four bottles of beer a day.C The people on the ship often fell ill because of the lack of vegetables and fruit.D The food for the passengers was more and better than that for the crew.SSS_SINGLE_SEL4.Which of the following statements is true?A The sailors often had to set the sails in bad weather.B The sailors had no courage.C The sailors were happy to be swept overboard in a strong wind.D A 70-day-journey across the Atlantic was the sailors' happiest thing.SSS_SINGLE_SEL5.When the people saw the land, ______.A only passengers were gladB the sailors had to swim ashoreC they were surprised at the news that some ships never arrivedD all of them were excitedA lot of people are their own enemies. They regard themselves as unlikely to succeed in college and often feel that there have been no accomplishments in their lives. In my first year of college especially, I saw people get themselves down all too quickly. There were two students in my class who failed the first test and seemed to give up immediately. From that day on, they walked into the classroom carrying defeat on their shoulders the way other students carried textbooks under their arms. Both students hang on until about mid-term. When they disappeared for good, no one took much notice, for they had already disappeared in spirit after that first test. They are not the only people in whom I have seen the self-doubt do its work. I have really wanted to shake them by the shoulders and say, "You are not dead. Be proud and pleased that you have broughtyourself here to college. Be someone. Breathe. Hope. Act. "Such people should not use self-doubts as an excuse for not trying. They should pull themselves together and get to work. They should starttaking notes in class and trying to learn. Above all, they should not give up without even trying.SSS_SINGLE_SEL6.The underlined phrase "get themselves down"(Para. 1)probablymeans______.A tell liesB lose confidenceC avoid dangersD waste timeSSS_SINGLE_SEL7.When the two students dropped out, no one took much noticebecause______.A they had long lost heart in class performanceB they were absent from class too oftenC they didn't get on well with other studentsD they were so much cut off from the rest of the classSSS_SINGLE_SEL8.According to the passage, the two students failed in their study because of their______.A shynessB prideC self-doubtD lazinessSSS_SINGLE_SEL9.The author thinks that the two students should______.A give up their college educationB learn from other studentsC feel happy because they are in collegeD try hard before giving upSSS_SINGLE_SEL10.The underlined sentence "Both students hang on until about mid-term"(Para. 1)tells us that______.A they didn' t study wellB they didn't take part in class activitiesC they didn't take notes in classD they didn' t finish their study that termFirst Great Western provides a convenient and accurate ticket selling service.

It listed all the tradesmen in each village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of services which were available on one' s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside. Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of**merce, but its power is still remarkable. Our local grocer' s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of **petition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local newswhile doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value. His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend whohappened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for **modity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figure, instantly obtains it for them?SSS_SINGLE_SEL16.Nowadays **mercial services in the village are______.A still very activeB quickly decliningC unable to flourishD personal to visitorsSSS_SINGLE_SEL17.The local grocer' s shop is expanding because______.A **petition there is weakB it is a place for women to chatC it provides good personal serviceD the goods there are more valuableSSS_SINGLE_SEL18.Which of the following is true about the supermarkets?A Prices there are much higher.B Customers often have to queue up.C Customers can order by telephone.D Their personal services are satisfactory.SSS_SINGLE_SEL19.How do the village grocer' s assistants feel about giving extra service?A They don' t think it a trouble.B They don't think it worthwhile.C They don't consider it a good deal.D They don't consider it a pleasant experience.SSS_SINGLE_SEL20.One special feature of the village shop is that______.A there is a very wide range of goods availableB customers can order goods by word of mouthC customer have to order goods one hour earlierD there is a list of goods to be delivered to doorsteps3.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1“If you want to see a thing wel l, reach out (伸出手) and touch it!”That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth (光滑) and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things as we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it. There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to (习惯于) them!Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show. If we want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see!61. By touching things,________ .A. you will have a strange feelingB. you will learn how to reach out your handC. you can know them betterD. you can tell what colors they are62. When people buy things in shops, they often________ .A. buy them firstB. keep their right hands on themC. ask about themD. feel and touch them63. Why does it say “At first, it is not easy to feel these things”? Because________ .A. the things are used by people, tooB. people feel the things too oftenC. people know how to use the thingsD. the things are easy to feel64. Which of the following is true?A. Touching is more important than seeing.B. Our feet, fingers, hands and skin can help us buy food.C. People have to learn to see by feeling as they grow up.D. Visitors can feel the things on show in some museums.65. Which of the following can be the best title of the story?A. Touching by Feeling.B. To See or to Feel?C. To See Better — Touch.D. Ways of Feeling.Passage 2The old V olkswagen Beetle —“The Bug” — is making a comeback. People who own them are planning to keep them forever. People who don’t own them are paying high prices when they can find one for sale. It’s more remarkable when you realize that VW doesn’t even make them anymore!A spokesman for V olkswagen of America says there were about five million “Bugs” on American roads in 1977.That was the last year they were shipped to America. VW estimates that about four million of them are still running and running and running.Used car dealers say they can’t keep “Bugs” on their lots these days. They feel it’s because these cars have a history of reliable, inexpensive transportation. The cars average about 30 miles per gallon of gas.But all hasn’t been smooth going for the “Bugs”. The heating system is poor. And since it travels very close to the ground, larger cars tend to splash it with winter’s snow and mud. Some in the safety field consider the Beetle as defenseless against heavier cars. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has nothing that shows any problem with them at all.66. American people like to have a “Bug”,________.A. because it is no more in productionB. because it is reliable and energy savingC. because it is remarkable and easy to driveD. because it is safe67.

American feel proud if they can own a “Bug”.D. No “Bugs” h ave been shipped to America since 1977.68.

What is the problem with a “Bug”?A. It does not go smoothly.B. It is not comfortable in winter.C. It splashes mud and water.D. It travels too slowly.70. What can be concluded according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration?A. They are going to investigate into “Bugs” problem.B. Some of the “Bugs” are not usable any more.C. It is defenseless when it is hit by a heavy car.D. The “Bugs” is good for use.Passage 3There are many ways to learn about people of other lands. One way is to study the clothing other people wear. For thousands of years, people in different part of the world have worn very different types of clothing. There are four big reasons for this.One reason might be religion. In many Moslem countries, women must wear veils to hide their faces. The veils must be worn in public. Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in different countries. For instance, in France the materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man made materials. Most people in China wear cotton.The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machines to make most of their clothing. Someone living inIndia can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs.World wide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing. A Mexican farmer wears a straw hat with a brim up. In China, a farmer wears a straw hat with a brim down. Both hats are used to protect the farmers from the sun. Some of these customs have come down through thousands of years.71. If you want to learn about the differences about people in the world, you________.A. should know the ways to study other landsB. should know the four big reasons given in the passageC. may study the different types of clothing people wearD. may be surprised by the ways people wear hats72. In many Moslem countries, women have to ________ in public.A. wear more clothes than menB. cover their faces with veilsC. protect their faces from being hurtD. wear religious clothing73. Which of the following is the reason for the differences in clothing?A. Materials used for clothes differ from country to country.B. Cotton is the common material for clothing.C. Man made materials are invented to make clothes.D. Most people like silk clothes.74. The third reason for difference in clothing is________ .A. different materialsB. different ways of making clothesC. different styles of dressingD. different religions75. The two examples of wearing hats are given in the last paragraph to show________ .A. the effect of customs on dressing styleB. the function of wearing straw hatC. the correct way of wearing straw hatD. the long history of some customsPassage 4Pressure Cooker (高压锅) SafetyWhen you are cooking with a pressure cooker, you should learn a few common sense (常识) rules:1. Never leave the cooker unwatched when it is in use.2. Add sufficient liquid but never past the recommended fill point. Overfilling the cooker may block the vent pipe (排气孔) and cause the cooker to explode.3. Set the cooking time. Too much time may overcook the food or too much pressure may build up in the cooker. Too little time will lead to under cooked food.4. If you are new to pressure cooking, follow the cooking instructions carefully. Heat and time can either result in a great meal or a ruined one.5. Never try to force a pressure cooker cover open. Allow the cooker to cool or run it under cool water before trying to open the cover.6. Clean the cooker thoroughly after each use. Mild detergent (洗涤剂) and hot water work the best. Do not use stove ash or sand for they may damage the cooker. The gasket (密封圈) is best cleaned in warm soapy water and then dried.
