Passage1Some of the problems that1people in the U.S.2in the cities during old days are still3us:poor planning,problems in4neighborhoods,and public transportation. Pollution was a very important problem for city governments in the last century,5regard to water supplies.It was known that water could be polluted,6they didn't know7.Trying to get pure water was a big problem.People like to talk about the8old days,but actually,the cities of the19th century were dirty and,9,filthier than today.Planning of cities and their neighborhoods was controlled by land speculators and real estate developers who were only interested in10money.1.A.bothered B.stimulate C.interest D.frighten2.A.were living B.being living C.lived D.living3.A.remembered B.with C.to D.known4.A.incoming-low B.low-incoming C.low-income D.lowed-income5.A.by particular B.with particularly C.particularly by D.particularly with6.A.because B.but C.moreover D.since7.A.how B.that C.what D.which8.A.devil B.good C.miserable D.bad9.A.by the way B.in the way C.on the way D.in many ways10.A.making for B.make C.making D.earning for Passage2Men have traveled ever since they first appeared on the earth.In primitive times they did not travel for pleasure but to1new places where their herds could feed,or to escape from hostile neighbors,or to find more favorable climates.They traveled on foot.Their journeys were long,tiring,and often dangerous.They protected themselves with simple weapons such as wooden sticks or stone clubs,and by lighting fires at night and above all,by keeping together.Later they traveled,not for necessity,but2the joy and excitement of seeing and experiencing new things.This is still the main3why we travel today.Traveling,of course, has now become a4organized business.There are cars and splendid roads,express trains, huge ships and jet airplanes,all of5provide us6comforts and security.This sounds wonderful.7there are difficulties.If you want to go8,you need a passport and a visa, tickets,luggage,and a hundred and one9things.If you lose any of them,your journey maybe10.1.A.visit B.explore C.find D.utilize2.A.for B.with C.from D.in3.A.cause B.reason C.goal D.purpose4.A.highly B.greatly C.mostly rgely5.A.that B.these C.which D.those6.A.with B.for C.in D.under7.A.Because B.Besides C.But D.Furthermore8.A.seaside B.outside C.traveling D.abroad9.A.important B.other C.many D.different10.A.hurt B.injured C.spoiled D.destroyed Passage3Most parents,I suppose,have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children.And they must have1how difficult it is to write a2children's book.Either the author has aimed too3,so that the children can't follow what is in his(or more often,her) story,4the story seems to be talking to the readers.The best children's books are5very difficult nor very simple,and satisfy both the6 who hears the story and the adult who7it.Unfortunately,there are in fact8books like this,9the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not10to solve.This may be why many of books regarded as works of children's literature were in fact written for grown-ups.1.A.hoped B.realized C.told D.said2.A.short B.long C.bad D.good3.A.easy B.short C.high D.difficult4.A.and B.but C.or D.so5.A.both B.neither C.either D.very6.A.child B.father C.mother D.teacher7.A.hears B.buys C.understands D.reads8.A.few B.many C.a great deal of D.a great number of9.A.but B.however C.so D.because10A.hard B.easy C.enough D.fastPassage4Earth's animals are disappearing faster than they reproduce.Because there is too1 research and too much ignorance,2is aware of how much we are losing.Many different kinds of plants and animals3extinct.Every year,0.5percent of the 4things in the tropical rain forests become extinct.Some disappear5they are found and named.No one has time6them before they are gone.The disappearance of species7scientists.They want the U.S.Endangered Species Act of1973to be made8.This act was formed to protect endangered species.9,land developers,and factory owners disagree.They want changes that will make the act weaker.

our own to spend as we like in a time of widespread want and starvation.A1organization advertises that for$33a month they can give hospital care to a child suffering from kwashiorkor-the severe deficiency disease 2is simply a starving for protein.Doing3such a pet,and then sending the money saved to a relief organization would mean4a life-over the years,several human lives.Children not5from such a grave disease could be fed with half that amount-not on a diet like ours,but on plain,basic,life-sustaining food.It is not unreasonable to believe6the amount of money we spend on the average pet dog could keep a child7in a region of great poverty.8what we would spend on a cat might not feed a child,but it9probably pay for his medical care or basic education.The point needs no10.That is

asked people what the most important invention has been,many would say the printing press.Others1say the wheel.But even though it's2whether the appearance of the printing press affected the course of history more than the wheel,the printing press3 within the top two or three inventions in history.4the telephone,the television,the radio, and the computer,the written word was the only way to5ideas to people too far away to talk with.Until the6th or7th century,all books had to be written6.Creating a book was difficult,and very few existed.Therefore,very few people read books.In the6th and7th centuries,the Chinese invented a way to print pages by7characters and pictures on wooden,ivory,or clay blocks.They would print a page from the block by putting8on the block and pressing paper onto the ink.This9is called letterpress printing.The invention of letterpress printing was a great advance in communication10each block could be inked many times and many copies of each page could be made.Many books could now be made.Therefore,many people could read the same book.1.A.might B.ought to C.had to D.should2.A.variable B.agreeable C.reliable D.debatable3.A.lists B.ranges C.ranks D.covers4.A.Now

ago,most farmers in the United States Produced only enough food for their own2Today,modern equipment and farming methods have greatly3the American farmer's productivity.In various parts of the world,people4many animals that supply meat and milk.Cattle, horses,goats,sheep,and pigs are important food animals.In the United States,the cow is the major source of milk products.Chickens5people with both meat and eggs.Fishing is an important source of food,6in areas near the sea.Some countries,like Japan,consume much more fish than meat.The wealthy areas of the world consume the most food,7include the United States, Canada,and Europe.Many countries are able to import food if it cannot be produced at home. 8Great Britain imports about75percent of its meat,and grows less than half the food its people require.9people of the poor countries of the world usually eat only what they are able toproduce themselves.In some parts of Asia,people live10rice alone.1.A.In B.Until C.From

and its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess,if they are properly used.If fire did not hurt when it burnt,children would play with it 1their hands were burnt away,2if pain existed but fear did not,a child would burn itself again and again,because fear would not3it to keep away from the fire that had burnt it before.Fear and pain are there fore two guards4which men and animals might soon die out.In the first sentence we suggest that fear ought to be properly used.If,5you never go out of your house6of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too7.Even in your house you are not absolutely8:an airplane may crash on your house or you may get cancer!The important thing is not to let fear rule you,but9to use fear as your servant and guide.Fear will warn you of dangers;10you have to decide what action to take.1.A.because B.if C.though D.until2.A.Generally B.Probably C.Similarly

have to say that wecouldn't remember.But if we kept a book and had written in it an account of1we did each day,we should be able to give an answer2the question.It is the same with history.Many things have been3because we do not have any written account of them.Sometimes men did4a record of the most important happenings in their country,but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war.Sometimes5was never any written record at6because the people of that7and place did not know8to write.For example,we know a good deal about the people who lived in China4,000years ago,because they could write and leave written records for those who9after them.But we know almost 10about the people who lived even2,000years ago in central Africa,because they had not learned to write.1.A.which B.that C.how

could1 that a person died when his heart stopped beating.They learned,however,that the body did not die2when the heart stopped beating.They also discovered that humans remained alive3 their brain remained active.Today the difference between life and death is not as easy to see4in the past.Modern medical devices can5the heart beating and the lungs breathing long6the brain stops.But is this7?The question has caused much debate8doctors in the United States.Many of them want a law that9a person is dead when the brain dies.A person would then be10dead when brain waves stop,even if machines can

little girl whom he had never seen before walked into his shop and demanded twenty cigarettes.She had the2 amount of money in her hand and seemed very sure of herself.Mr.Johnson was so3by her confident manner that he forgot to ask his usual question.4,he asked her what kind of cigarettes she wanted.The girl replied readily and handed him the money.While he was giving her the5,Mr.Johnson said laughingly that as she was so young she should6the packet in her pocket in case a policeman saw it.7,the little girl did not seem to find it funny. Without even smiling she took the packet and walked towards the door.Suddenly she stopped, turned8,and looked at Mr.Johnson.There was a moment of silence and Mr.Johnson9 what she was going to say.All at once,in a clear,firm voice,she said"My dad is a policeman," and with that she walked quickly10the shop.1.A.with B.to C.for D.by2.A.exact B.some rge D.enough3.A.worried B.annoyed C.surprised D.pleased4.A.Therefore B.Instead C.Anyway D.Somehow5.A.change B.warning C.bill D.cigarettes6.A.cover B.hide C.dip D.take7.A.Nevertheless B.Moreover C.Therefore D.Then8.A.away B.round C.over D.aside9.A.wondered B.considered C.doubted D.expected10.A.into B.out of C.or D.away Passage12Why do I want to go to college?No one has ever asked me1a question.But many times I have asked myself.I have2a whole variety of reasons.3important reason is that I want to be a better man.Many things make human beings different4or better than or even superior to animals. One of the most important things is5.If I fail to receive higher education,my education 6.As I want to be a fully7man,I must get a well-rounded education,which good colleges and universities are supposed to8.I know one can get educated in many ways,but colleges and universities are9the best places to teach me how to educate myself.Only when I am well-educated,will I be a better human being and10fit into society.1.A.quite B.so C.such D.anothere up with B.agreed with C.been fed up with D.got on well with3.A.Most B.The most C.More D.Much4.A.to B.around C.between D.fromcation B.weather C.temperature D.science6.A.finished B.don't finish C.will not finish D.has finished7.A.develop B.developed C.developing D.experience8.A.improve B.graduate C.hear D.provide9.A.between B.among C.inside D.outside10.A.can good B.may better C.be able to better D.be able to best Passage13Many people think that Americans1their cars almost more than anything else.When 2people are fourteen years old,they want to have their3cars.They don't ask for a car from their4.So many of them work in5time during their last year of high school to buy a car.Learning to6and getting a driver's license may be one of the most exciting things in a young person's life.Some people almost7go to a doctor when they are ill.But they will8their cars to a garage as soon as they think there is a9.On Saturdays or Sundays some people may10 most of their time washing and repairing their cars.1.A.prefer B.love C.drive D.play2.A.little B.big C.old D.young3.A.new B.own C.expensive D.cheap4.A.friends B.teachers C.parents D.brothers5.A.free B.busy C.study D.good6.A.make B.mend C.wash D.drive7.A.always B.never C.often ually8.A.take B.carry C.pull D.lift9.A.question B.wrong C.Mistake D.problem10.A.cost B.get C.spend e Passage14Many kids think they are1.They think they aren't the prettiest or the smartest.At the same time,they think they aren't even the ugliest or the silliest,which would at least make them stand out.Everyone feels that way sometimes,2in middle school.Kids3realize how special they are.It is4growing up.Growing up means understanding what you can offer the world.
