But did that stop you buying another lottery ticket? If the answer is another “no",you might call yourself an optimist.According to researchers at University College London,human beings are sanguine creatures. It is all in the brain,they say. A study suggests that human brain is very efficient at processing good news: about 80% of people have a tendency to see the glass as half-full,not half-empty,even if they don't consider themselves to be optimists.The good news is that this brings a health benefit , Having a positive outlook on life reduces anxiety. A study of nearly 100,000 women showed a lower risk of death from heart disease among optimists.But there are problems in always having an optimistic attitude. The authors of the study point out that the 2008 financial crisis may have been caused by analysts overestimating their assets' performance even in the face of clear evidence to the contrary.There are personal health risks too. Dr Tali Sharot,lead researcher,said: '''Smoking Kills' messages don't work since people think their chances of cancer are low. There's a very fundamental tendency in the brain."But,as they say,every cloud has a silver lining. Even if seeing the world through rose-colored glasses poses a risk to our health,it's not something that is likely to cause us to lose sleep. Let's just keep our chins up and keep smiling!11. What does “sanguine” (para.2) mean ?A .DepressedB Cheerful C. Lucky D. Emotional12.

People tend to be optimistic even in crisis.B. Optimists enjoy life better than pessimists.C. Being optimistic has both benefits and risks.D. Optimism is what keeps us going forward.Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage:The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has launched an investigation into allegations that its officials in more than 50 countries have been selling London Olympics tickets on the black market for profit. The IOC met at an emergency session on Saturday to look into a pile of evidence uncovered by Britain's Sunday Times newspaper. The paper claims that high-ranking Olympic officials have been selling tickets for the games at hugely inflated prices. The highest priced tickets on the black market were for the men's 100-meter final. The roc has issued a statement saying it takes these allegations very seriously and has immediately taken the first steps to investigate. "IOC rules forbid national Olympics committees from selling tickets overseas,increasing ticket prices or selling tickets to unauthorized,third-party resellers. Despite this,Sunday Times undercover report posing as illegal ticket sellers say they have recorded evidence of 27 officials selling tickets distributed to 54 countries One of the most serious allegations was against the Greek Olympic Committee president Spyros Capralos.

Answers are studied by Google's mathematicians to calculate a score meant to predict how well a person will fit into the organization's diversified and competitive culture.Psychometric tests(心理测试) are already used by more traditional companies to select workers,but they are unheard of in a company like Google,which is built on a belief in individual talent. The online questionnaire is based on the answers to 300 questions sent out last summer to every employee at the head office in California's Silicon V alley. Some questions were factual: What programming languages are you familiar with? What internet mailing lists are you on?Other questions,however,tried to establish personality and behavioural characteristics: Have you ever tutored another person?"We wanted to cast a very wide net," said Laszlo Bock,Google's V ice-President for People Operations."It is not unusual to walk into our office and bump into dogs.

For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of ourcustomers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would app roach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is fr ee!”61.

Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.A. pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expandsinto a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66. The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave systemthe biggest underground lake in the worldlisted in the Guinness Book of World Recordsthe largest body of water in Tennessee67.

Many old Indian objects.70. It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____.A. an underground testing siteB. an Indian meeting groundC. a tourist attractionD. a motor boat race course Passage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have allbeen told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas,“is poor”.71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A. the year the author wrote the articleB. 1977C. any year between 1997 and 1983D. 198372. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.several studies have been done in the past few yearsthe omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthadults have especially made studies in this field eating little in the morning is good for health73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance” means ______.anyone without breakfast does improve his performancenot giving people breakfast improve performance having breakfast does not improve performance, eitherpeople having breakfast do improve their performance74. The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______.A. stories, poems, plays, etc.B. written works on a particular subjectC. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America75. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.breakfast does not affect performanceDr. Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningnot eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenProfessor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Some students attenda junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy socialactivities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76. College education is _______ in America.A. quite commonB. very rareC. something difficultD. almost impossible77. Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A. entrance examinationsB. taking part in many activitiesC. GPAD. college prep classes78. How can poor students attend private schools?A. Only by working at part-time jobs.B. Only by working at full-time jobs.C. Only by earning scholarships.D. All of above.79. The American college students like to _______ most of all.A. discuss problems on philosophyB. play ballsC. earn enough moneyD. go to the cinemas or theatres80. The best title for this passage is _______.A. Part-time jobsB. American collegeC. Popular activityD. A new systemⅤ.

And for another example, money can’t buy us good health and a long life. But we can not live without money. We need it for our daily necessities such as food, clothes and transportation. What’s more, we need it to live a better life. In short, we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages.。

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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a pencil.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Do you believe that only boys do well in science? Does it seem to you that girls have better vocabularies than boys? In your opinion, are boys better at building things? If your answer to each of those questions is “Yes,” you are right according to an article in “Current Science .” Ther e are exceptions, but here are the facts.On the average, males score higher on tests that measure mathematical reasoning, mechanical ability, and problem-solving skills. Females show superior ability intests measuring vocabulary, spelling, and memory. But these difference will probably not always exist. In the future, a person’s abilities may not be determined by sex. As one scientist says, “Nothing is impossible for a person to be or do.”In several recent studies, young babies have been observed and tested to discover how different abilities are developed. A scientific team headed by Jerome Kagan, a psychologist at Harvard University, is studying the thinking ability of children 111/2 months old. The test is a simple one. The baby, while seated on it s mother’s lap, watches a “show” on a theater stage.In act I of the show, an orange-colored block is lifted from a blue box and moved slowly across the stage. Then it is returned to the box.This is repeated six times. Act 2 is similar, except that the orange block is smaller. Baby boys do not seem to notice the difference in the size of the block, but girls immediately become excited and begin to make noises that sound like language. They seem to be trying to talk.It is known that bones, muscles, and nerves develop faster in baby girls. Usually, too, baby girls talk at an earlier age than boys do. Scientists think there is a physical reason for this. They believe that the nerve endings in the left side of the brain develop faster in girls than in boys. And it is this side of the brain that strongly influences an individual’s ability to use words, to spell, and to remember things.By the time they start to school, therefore, little girls have an advantage that boys do not have. Girls are physically more ready to remember facts, to spell, and to read. These, of course, are skills that are important in elementary school.But what have the boys been doing in the years before starting school? They have been developing something called aggression. An aggressive person has courage and energy. He feels strong and independent. He is often the first one to start a fight.( )11. According to an article in “Current Science”, which of the following is false?A) Boys do well in science.B) Girls have better vocabulary than boys.C) Boys are better at building things.D)Boys are as good as girls at science( )12. The author of the article believes _____.A) Males, without any exception, score higher on tests that measure mathematical reasoning, mechanical ability, and problem-solving skillB) Females show superior ability in tests measuring vocabulary, spelling, and memoryC) It the future, sex may be a key factor that determines a person’s abilityD)The differences above probably always exist( )13. The test made by a scientific team headed by Jerome Kagan shows _____.A) Baby boys never notice the difference in the size of the blockB) Baby boys try to talkC) Baby girls seem to notice the difference in the size of the blockD)Baby girls know how to use language( )14. Concerning the difference between baby boys and girls in physical development of ability scientists believe _____.A) the nerve endings in the left side of the brain develop faster in baby boysB) an individual’s a bility to use words, to spell, and to remember things is strongly influenced by the right side of the brainC) both baby boys and baby girls talk at an early ageD)There is a physical reason for the difference in the development of abilities of baby boys and baby girls( )15. The author implies in the last two paragraphs that _____.A) little girls have an advantage in elementary schoolB) boys are physically more ready to remember facts, to spell, and to readC) after starting school, boys begin to develop something called aggressionD)girls feel strong and independentSection BDirections: Read the following passage and then give short answers to the five questions. Write your answers on the Answer Sheet.In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, flexible, and do not make mistakes. As one banker said, “Unlike humans, computers never have a bad day.” And they are honest. Many banks advertise that their transactions(业务往来)are “untouched by human hands” and therefore safe from human temptation. Obviously, computers have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience, and the growing number of computer crimes show they can be used to steal.16.What is the passage mainly about? .17. Transactions in many banks are claimed to be safe because they __.18. The bank teller covered up his crime by ____.19. What must the librarian do thirty days after she received the notice? .20. According to the last paragraph, what kind of criminal are the police unable to catch? .Part III Cloze Test (20%)Directions: Of the fifteen words given, choose ten words which best fill in the ten numbered blanks of the following passage. Each word can be used only once. Choose the form where necessary.writers with increases in musicians all accurately attract express upon combine well lie appeal sayHow people first learned to invent words is unknown, (21) other words, the origin of language is a mystery. (22) we really know is that humans, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to (23) thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed (24) certain signs, called letters, which could be (25) to represent those sounds and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then (26) in their association---the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filed with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to tell us (27).Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which (28) powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. (29) can convey meaning in words which sing like music and which, by their position and association, can move others to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them (30), or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.(21) (22) (23) (24) (25)(26) (27) (28) (29) (30)Part IV English - Chinese Translation (20%)Directions: Read the following passage carefully. Then translate it into Chinese. Write your translation on the Answer Sheet.Using international phone links, a group of West German hackers took repeated strolls through NASA computers last summer, as well as through several U.S. military networks. NASA spent three months changing passwords and clearing out "trap door" programs that the intruders had planted to give them access. Another German hacker spent nearly two years cruising through unclassified data in U.S. Defense Department and other research computers around the world until he was stopped last year. And last May, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, was invaded by hackers yet to be identified. Even companies with good security have run into a new problem: the computer virus. Like micro-organisms, these replicate and spread. They're tiny bits of software, often quickly written,that hide in larger programsand then pounce unpredictably.Part I Structure and Vocabulary (20%)1. C2. C3. C4. A5. A6. D7. A8. D9. B 10.

We tend to think of the decades immediately following World War II as a time of prosperity and growth, with soldiers returning home by the millions, going off to college on the G. I. Bill and lining up at the marriage bureaus. But when it came to their houses, it was a time of common sense and a belief that less could truly be more. During the Depression and the war, Americans had learned to live with less, and that restraint, in combination with the postwar confidence in the future, made small, efficient housing positively stylish. Economic condition was only a stimulus for the trend toward efficient living. The phrase “less is more” was actually first popularized by a German, the architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, who like other people associated with the Bauhaus, a school of design, emigrated to the United States before World War II and took up posts at American architecture schools. These designers came to exert enormous influence on the course of American architecture, but none more so that Mies. Mies’s signature phrase means that less decoration, properly organized, has more impact that a lot. Elegance, he believed, did not derive from abundance. Like other modern architects, he employed metal, glass and laminated wood-materials that we take for granted today buy that in the 1940s symbolized the future. Mies’s sophisticated presentation masked the fact that the spaces he designed were small and efficient, rather than big and often empty. The apartments in the elegant towers Mies built on Chicago’s Lake Shore Drive, for example, were smaller-two-bedroom units under 1,000 square feet-than those in their older neighbors along the city’s Gold Coast. But they were popular because of their airy glass walls, the views they afforded and the elegance of the buildings’ details and proportions, the architectural equivalent of the abstract art so popular at the time. The trend toward “less” was not entirely foreign. In the 1930s Frank Lloyd Wright started building more modest and efficient houses-usually around 1,200 square feet-than the spreading two-story ones he had designed in the 1890s and the early 20th century. The “Case Study Houses”commissioned from talented modern architects by California Arts & Architecture magazine between 1945 and 1962 were yet another homegrown influence on the “less is more” trend. Aesthetic effect came from the landscape, new materials and forthright detailing. In his Case Study House, Ralph everyday life – few American families acquired helicopters, though most eventually got clothes dryers – but his belief that self-sufficiency was both desirable and inevitable was widely shared. 1. The postwar American housing style largely reflected the Americans’ . [A]prosperity and growth [B]efficiency and practicality [C]restraint and confidence [D]pride and faithfulness 2. Which of the following can be inferred from Paragraph 3 about Bauhaus? [A]It was founded by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. [B]Its designing concept was affected by World War II. [C]Most American architects used to be associated with it. [D]It had a great influence upon American architecture. 3. Mies held that elegance of architectural design . [A]was related to large space [B]was identified with emptiness [C]was not reliant on abundant decoration [D]was not associated with efficiency 4. What is true about the apartments Mies building Chicago’s Lake Shore Drive? [A]They ignored details and proportions. [B]They were built with materials popular at that time. [C]They were more spacious than neighboring buildings. [D]They shared some characteristics of abstract art. 5. What can we learn about the design of the “Case Study House”? [A]Mechanical devices were widely used. [B]Natural scenes were taken into consideration [C]Details were sacrificed for the overall effect. [D]Eco-friendly materials were employed. 参考答案 1.C。

He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. From the way people spend their money, we can see what they really value in life.He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are a very good friend. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly weaken the relationship if he doesn't, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important.People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life? In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to bring happiness may miss the meaning of life.(1)The author seems to believe that asking your friend to lend you some money ______.A is a good way to test your friendshipB will do harm to your friendshipC will stre ngthen your friendshipD is a good way to break off your friendship(2)What is the meaning of the word "miss" in the passage?A 想念.B 失败.C 失踪.D 失去.(3)What does the American professor of philosophy want to explain in his book?A Money is an end.B Money is everything.C Money is a means(方式). D Money is important.27. Once upon a time, there was a farmer in the central region of China.He didn't have a lot of money and, instead of a strong horse, he used an old horse to plow(犁) his field.One afternoon, while working in the field, the horse dropped dead.Everyone in the village said, "Oh, what a horrible thing to happen!"The farmer said simply, "We'll see."He was soat peace and so calm, that everyone in the village got together and, admiring his attitude, gave him a new horse as a gift.Everyone said, "What a lucky man!"And the farmer said, "We'll see."A couple of days later, the new horse jumped a fence and ran away.Everyone in the village shook their heads and said, "What a poor guy!"The farmer smiled and said, "We'll see."Finally, the horse found his way home, and everyone again said, "What a lucky man!"The farmer said, "______."Later in the year, the farmer's young boy went out riding on the horse and fell and broke his leg.Everyone in the village said, "What a shame for the poor boy!"The farmer said, "We'll s ee."Two days later, the army came into the village to draft new recruits(征兵).When they saw that the farmer's son had a broken leg, they decided not to recruit him. Everyone said, "What a lucky young man!"The farmer smiled again, and said, "We'll see." There's no use in overacting(反应过度)to the events of our everyday lives.Many times what looks likes a bad thing, may actually be a gift in return.And when our hearts are in the right place, all events are gifts that we can le arn valuable lessons from.(1)What is the right order of the events?________A ①②③④.B ④③①②.C ③②①④.D ④①②③.(2) What sentence probably would be on the line?________A Not at all.B Yes,I am.C We'll see.D Thank you.(3)Why did the father always say"We'll see"when things happened?________A Because the father was very clear about what would happen next.B Because the fath er didn't care about what happened.C Because the father didn't want to overact to wha t happened.D Because the father wanted to show off how cool he was.(4)What do you think would be the best title of the story?________A We'll see.B What a cool father!.C What a lucky man!.D What a poor man!.28. One day, I went to see my last patient, an old woman.In the doorway, I saw she was st ruggling to put socks on her swollen (浮肿)feet in the bed.I stepped in, spoke quickly to the nurse, read her chart noting.I was almost in the clear that she was not in serious condition.I asked, "Could I help put on your socks?

Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, andD. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneWhen Columbus reached the New World, corn was the most widely grown plant in the Americas. This plant´s range extended from what is now southern Canada to lower South America. At that time some tribes cultivated it at sea level, others at elevation of more than 11,000 feet.“Columbus had no way of knowing that corn was far more valuable than the spices (香料)and gold he had hoped to find.” said FrancesB. King, a professor at a university of Pittsburgh. Through human intervention, this plant has developed into several hundred races, or varieties. Their heights vary from 2 to 12 feet, and their maturity ranges from little more than 2 months to almost a year. Their ears vary not only in color, but also in size.Unlike other cereals (谷类), corn bears little resemblance to its wild ancestors. In fact, it differs from the appearance of its immediate ancestors more than any other cultivated plant known. From humble origins as a lowland grass, corn developed int o the western world´s important grain. As its high yields allowed communities to grow far beyond what early agriculture could feed, most scientists viewed corn as having largely fueled pre-Columbian growth and civilization.Now, new findings are greatly al tering researchers´ notions about the time when corn revolution occurred. New dates for its emergence from Mesoamenrica do not support the widely held view. The evidence now suggests that the signs of corn in Americas can date back 5,500 years at least.31. The first paragraph states that corn _____.A. was mainly grown at sea levelB. was not grown below the elevation of 11,000 feetC. was widely grown in Canada onlyD. spread throughout Americas32. The second paragraph implies that _____.A. the purpose of Columbus´ exploration was to discover cornB. corn was one of Columbus´ discoveries, but more precious than anything elseC. Columbus knew corn so well that he brought back to Europe at onceD. corn was the only Columbus´ discovery that was remembered33. According to the passage, some varieties of corn can _____.A. ripen little more than 2 monthsB. last little more than 2 monthsC. stay fresh for almost a yearD. stay alive from 2 months to almost a year34. Corn helped the early communities to grow because _____.A. it was easy to digestB. it had a lot of varietiesC. it could produce high yieldsD. it could last long35. The widely held view was challenged by _____.A. a new revolutionB. new findings about cornC. the signs of corn 5,500 years agoD. new dates for communities´ emergencePassage TwoWomen on a touring holiday of Britain were injured by an explosion in their motor van in the center of Norwich yesterday.Shoppers, traders and businessmen in Red Lion Street were shocked by a loud bang, and seconds later the two men jumped over from the vehicle. Several people rushed to give assistance and helped to put out the fire inside the vehicle.“I heard this explosion. It was pretty loud. I thought it could have been a bomb.” Said Mr. Leslie Webst er, manager of the market, who was working in his office in Red Lion Street. “I looked out of the window and saw this lad leap from the van and roll on the ground. Then another lad came out of the van. He seemed to be in a worse state --- parts of his trou sers were hanging below his knee.”“I came downstairs to get a fire extinguisher(灭火器), but by the time I got outside someone from the bank was in the van with an extinguisher.”Mr. Webster, who lives at 71, Trinity Street, Norwich, said both victims were s hocked. One was taken into the market´s office to await an ambulance. “The second man insisted on going back into the van to see if everything was all right, and five minutes later he came out with a drawer that was blazing.” He added.The explosion was also heard inside the bank. Staff provided a fire extinguisher and telephoned for an ambulance.Although a plastic window was blown out, damage inside the vehicle was mainly superficial.The two men have spent the last six months touring the Continent and has traveled to Norwich from Snetterton. At the time of the incident their wives were shopping in the city.36. The two men in the van ______.A. were unhurtB. were slightly hurtC. were shocked and badly hurtD. needed a long-time treatment37.

In the accident ______.A. the windows of the bank were blown outB. the contents of the van were damagedC. everything in the van was all rightD. the van was burned40. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Mr. Webster saw what had happened.B. Mr. Webster helped to put out the fire.C. Mr. Webster didn´t take a fire extinguisher to the van.D. Mr. Webster wanted to help in the accident but he didn´t have a chancePassage ThreeEveryone experiences fear during major crisis—such as fires, automobile accidents, etc. Some people even feel very nervous when they fly in airplanes. No matter how hard they try, they cannot lower their anxiety. Some people try to hide their nervousness: they try to disguise their anxiety by telling jokes. Others become loud and aggressive, attacking people by making them the butt of cruel jokes. Sometimes making someone else the target of jokes is an attempt to control one´s own fears—to master anxiety.A number of factors can be mentioned as important in explaining why some people have a fear of flying: early childhood experiences, general sense of security, fear of heights, trust in others, percentage of alcohol in blood, etc. The memory of a bad experience can sometimes trigger the same fear caused by that experience. Thus, a child might be frightened by the sight of a dog even though he is safe, merely because he once had a bad experience with a dog. A bad experience can be the cue that triggers our fears. But the crucial factor seems to be a feeling of no control.Usually we are able to suppress our feelings so that they do not affect our behavior. But sometimes the tension produced by our fears is so great that we cannot suppress it. At such time we need to discharge the tension by laughing or crying. By smiling foolishly and talking loudly, we are able to repress the rising feeling of fear so that it does not affect the way we behave.Because it is necessary to recognize a problem before it can be solved, admitting that we are afraid is an integral part of the process of mastering our fears.36. To make someone the butt of jokes means ______.A. to make someone become the object of jokesB. to force someone to enjoy jokesC. to entitle someone to tell jokesD. to offend someone by jokes37. What is the positive purpose of people´s telling jokes?A. To show one´s sense of humor.B. To control one´s own fears.C. To disguise their anxiety.D. To attack others.38. To master anxiety means ______.A. to be familiar with tensionB. to hold back the feeling of uneasinessC. to conquer the feeling of nervousnessD. to be good at the subject of anxiety39. According to the author, which of the following is the most important factor triggering the feeling of fear?A. The fear of heights.B. Early childhood experience.C. The general sense of security.D. A feeling of no control.40. According to the concluding paragraph, what is essential to go through the process of mastering one´s fears?A. To be conscious of the way of mastering fears.B. To repress the rising feeling of fear.C. To admit the feeling of fears.D. To control one´s feelings.Passage FourAny country has good reason to want its citizens to be as healthy as possible, since one of its greatest resources is an active population. No country wants its people to suffer unnecessarily from ill health.This was the kind of thinking which led to the introduction of a health service in many countries. In Britain this has developed into a “Welfare State” in which all citizens, rich and poor alike, can get most health treatment free. The money for this is partially raised by contributions from employers and employees.As three decades have shown, such automatic arrangements are not always ideal and there are arguments for and against the Health Service. The number of patients treated every year and the cost of treatment are much greater than was estimated. This means that the people who work for the Health Service—doctors, nurses and other hospital staff—have much more routine work to do and as a result they have littletime for preventive medicine. The Health Service does need more staff—a need that can only be met if more money is made available to it.However, a powerful argument for the Health Service is that many people are able to receive expensive treatment which they could never afford themselves. Sometimes this free treatment is abused and people visit their doctors when they don´t really need to. Because they have so many patients, doctors cannot spend as long with each one as they would like, and some people prefer to pay for private treatment so that their doctors can give them more time. In fact, some wealthy people feel that they should pay, and so free more money for treatment to others.46. In the author´s view, Britain is a Welfare State in that ______.A. all citizens are entitled to a free medical treatment in some senseB. poor, unlike the rich, could enjoy free medical treatmentC. health service is highly developed in BritainD. Britain doesn´t allow its people to suffer unnecessarily from ill health47. We can infer from the passage that ______.A. the Health Service is introduced to many other countries by BritainB. the Health Service has been introduced and developed for 30 years in BritainC. an active population is the greatest resource in BritainD. all citizens in Britain have a good opinion of the Health Service48. The best title for the passage would be ______.A. A Welfare StateB. Importance of the Health ServiceC. Disadvantages of the Health ServiceD. The Health Service49. The author mentions that some wealthy people prefer to pay for private treatment because ______.A. their doctors can give them more time leave from workB. those doctors have better medical instrumentsC. they might save some money for the poorD. their doctors have a stronger sense of responsibility for the patients50. The word “abused” (Par. 4) means ______.A. destroyedB. used in wrong wayC. ignoredD. wastedPart IV Cloze Test (15 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage.
