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.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.When I was in 7th grade, I had a lot of trouble reading. My mother used to sit by my side, and explain each paragraph of each school reading assignment to me because I didn't understand what I was reading. She would have to read each paragraph to me, and then after each paragraph, she summarized what we just read.In class, I tried to hide the fact that I couldn't read. My teachers gave us the last 10 minutes of class to start our reading homework, and I would sit there for the last ten minutes of class staring at the page, pretending I was reading it — I remember a terrible feeling of not wanting to get in trouble for not being able to comprehend. I had to wait until I got home so my mother could explain it to me. How did I ever get into Cornell University By eighth grade I started understanding a little on my own, but I was reading at an incredibly slow rate. In eighth grade, I got hold of all the speed reading books I could get my hands on. I read them all very slowly at the time. I even went out and took a course on speed reading. Then I developed my own system which was easier and produced quicker results. I started practicing these techniques every day, and as I started to read faster, my understanding increased. I found that I stopped daydreaming and thinking about other things while I was reading, and started getting the larger meaning. I was reading faster and comprehending better.I found that when you read slowly, word by word, you get lost in the words, lose the bigger picture, and your comprehension drops. When you read faster, your concentration actually increases and your comprehension goes up because instead of getting lost in the words, you see the overall picture.31.The main difficulty the writer had in reading in her 7th grade was that _____.A) she often forgot her school reading assignmentsB) she had difficulty reading with comprehensionC) she had a poor vocabulary and very bad grammarD) she always looked elsewhere when asked to read正确答案：B32.The writer would pretend to be reading in the last 10 minutes of class because______.A) she was afraid of being found outB) the reading class was terribleC) she had to do what others were doingD) her mother told her to do so正确答案：A33.The writer's reading ability improved a great deal mainly because _____.A) she entered Cornell UniversityB) she took a course on speed readingC) her mother managed to help her outD) she developed her own way of reading正确答案：D34.From her own experience, the writer found that ________.A) one's comprehension drops if one reads too slowlyB) in order to understand better, one has to read slowlyC) one tends to neglect the detailed information if one reads fastD) many people read fast in order to save time正确答案：A35.After reading the passage, we can conclude that the writer wrote the passage in order to_______.A) convince the readers of the importance of higher educationB) tell a story in honor of her motherC) give a detailed description of different reading skillsD) illustrate the necessity of fast reading正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Elizabeth's father died when she was nine. Her family was large, and very poor. She struggled for self esteem, but it was difficult when her clothes weren't as nice as the other kids and her new school was still unfamiliar.During a math lesson, Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard and was struggling to understand a concept. With every stroke of the chalk, she became more confused. She had suffered from chronic ear infections (感染), and had missed many days of her fifth grade year. When she finally got the courage to raise her little hand and ask Mr. Thompson how the problem was done, he became very angry. He marched her up in front of the class and told this insecure child that she was "incapable of learning and extremely stupid."This remark plagued (使…困扰) Elizabeth for years.Elizabeth drifted into marriage. After discovering her husband's long time infidelity (不忠), she found herself divorced with three young daughters. She moved back to her home state and tried to pick up the pieces she had left behind.Knowing that she would be the sole support of these children, and having no desire to remarry, Elizabeth started college. Like most good mothers, she wanted the best for her children. She didn't want to deprive them of their mother. She would rise early and stay up late to get every spare minute she could to study.When she received her first "A" she was confused. She thought there must be some mistake.

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 decideon the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.When I was in 7th grade, I had a lot of trouble reading. My mother used to sit by my side, and explain each paragraph of each school reading assignment to me because I didn't understand what I was reading. She would have to read each paragraph to me, and then after each paragraph, she summarized what we just read.In class, I tried to hide the fact that I couldn't read. My teachers gave us the last 10 minutes of class to start our reading homework, and I would sit there for the last ten minutes of class staring at the page, pretending I was reading it —I remember a terrible feeling of not wanting to get in trouble for not being able to comprehend. I had to wait until I got home so my mother could explain it to me. How did I ever get into Cornell University By eighth grade I started understanding a little on my own, but I was reading at an incredibly slow rate. In eighth grade, I got hold of all the speed reading books I could get my hands on.I read them all very slowly at the time. I even went out and took a course on speed reading. Then I developed my own system which was easier and produced quicker results. I started practicing these techniques every day, and as I started to read faster, my understanding increased. I found that I stopped daydreaming and thinking about other things while I was reading, and started getting the larger meaning. I was reading faster and comprehending better.I found that when you read slowly, word by word, you get lost in the words, lose the bigger picture, and your comprehension drops. When you read faster, your concentration actually increases and your comprehension goes up because instead of getting lost in the words, you see the overall picture.31.The main difficulty the writer had in reading in her 7th grade was that _____.A) she often forgot her school reading assignmentsB) she had difficulty reading with comprehensionC) she had a poor vocabulary and very bad grammarD) she always looked elsewhere when asked to read正确答案： B32.The writer would pretend to be reading in the last 10 minutes of class because______.A) she was afraid of being found outB) the reading class was terribleC) she had to do what others were doingD) her mother told her to do so正确答案： A33.The writer's reading ability improved a great deal mainly because _____.A) she entered Cornell UniversityB) she took a course on speed readingC) her mother managed to help her outD) she developed her own way of reading正确答案： D34.From her own experience, the writer found that ________.A) one's comprehension drops if one reads too slowlyB) in order to understand better, one has to read slowlyC) one tends to neglect the detailed information if one reads fastD) many people read fast in order to save time正确答案： A35.After reading the passage, we can conclude that the writer wrote the passage in order to_______.A) convince the readers of the importance of higher educationB) tell a story in honor of her motherC) give a detailed description of different reading skillsD) illustrate the necessity of fast reading正确答案： DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Elizabeth's father died when she was nine. Her family was large, and very poor. She struggled for self esteem, but it was difficult when her clothes weren't as nice as the other kids and her new school was still unfamiliar.During a math lesson, Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard and was struggling to understand a concept. With every stroke of the chalk, she became more confused. She had suffered from chronic ear infections (感染), and had missed many days of her fifth grade year. When she finally got the courage to raise her little hand and ask Mr. Thompson how the problem was done, he became very angry. He marched her up in front of the class and told this insecure child that she was "incapable of learning and extremely stupid."This remark plagued (使…困扰) Elizabeth for years.Elizabeth drifted into marriage. After discovering her husband's long time infidelity (不忠), she found herself divorced with three young daughters. She moved back to her home state and tried to pick up the pieces she had left behind.Knowing that she would be the sole support of these children, and having no desire to remarry, Elizabeth started college. Like most good mothers, she wanted the best for her children. She didn't want to deprive them of their mother. She would rise early and stay up late to get every spare minute she could to study.When she received her first "A" she was confused. She thought there must be some mistake. This was Elizabeth, Elizabeth the stupid. When her good grades piled up, she realized for the first time that maybe Mr. Thompson was wrong.

The country now had three languages: French for the 22 , Latin for the churches and English for the common people. With three languages 23 , there were sometimes different terms for the same thing. For example, Anglo-Saxons had the word kingly, but after the Normans, royal and sovereign entered the language as 24 . The extraordinary thing was that French did not replace English. Over three centuries English gradually 25 French, and by the end of the 15th century what had developed was a modified, greatly 26 language — Middle English — with about 10,000 "borrowed" French words.Around 1476 William Caxton 27 a printing press in England and started a 28 .

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.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to the manufacturer's claim, the first step is to present the warranty (保单), or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager. In general, the "higher up" the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favor, assuming he or she has a just claim.Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example, "The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear" is better than "This stereo does not work."The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the manufacturer. If so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the desired result, the consumer can go a step further. She or he can threaten to take the seller to court or report the seller to a private or public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.31.When a consumer finds that his or her in it, the first thing he or she should do is to ____.A) complain personally to the managerB) threaten to take the seller to courtC) write a firm letter of complaint to the store of purchaseD) show some written proof of the purchase to the store正确答案：D32.How can a consumer make his or her complaint more effective, according to the passage?A) Explain exactly what is wrong with the item.B) Threaten to take the seller to court.C) Make polite and general statements about the problem.D) Avoid having direct contact with the store manager.正确答案：A33.According to the passage, which of the following is suggested as the last alternative that consumers may turn to?A) Complain to the store manager in person.B) Complain to the manufacturer.C) Write a complaint letter to the manager.D) Turn to the Consumers’ Rights Protection Organization for help.正确答案：D34.The phrase "live up to" (in Para.1) in this context means ____.A) meeting the standard ofB) realizing the purpose ofC) fulfilling the demands ofD) keeping the promise of正确答案：A35.The passage tells us ____.A) how to settle a consumer’s complaint about a faulty itemB) how to make an effective complaint about a faulty itemC) how to avoid buying a faulty itemD) how to deal with complaints from customers正确答案：BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Taste is such a subjective matter that we don't usually conduct preference tests for food. The most you can say about anyone's preference is that it's one person's opinion. But because the two big cola companies —Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola are marketed so aggressively, we've wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty. We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-Cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting.We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola Classic or Pepsi, Diet Coke, or Diet Pepsi. These were people who thought they'd have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.We eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. Then we fed them four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants' choices with what mere guess-work could have accomplished.Getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse — only 7 of 27 identified all four samples correctly.While both groups did better than chance would predict, nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times. Two people got all four samples wrong. Overall, half the participants did about as well on the last round of tasting as on the first, so fatigue,or taste burnout, was not a factor. Our preference test results suggest that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.36.According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to ________.A) find out the role taste preference plays in a person's drinkingB) reveal which cola is more to the liking of the drinkersC) show that a person's opinion about taste is mere guess-workD) compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks正确答案：A37.The statistics recorded in the preference tests show that ________.A) Coca-Cola and Pepsi are people's two most favorite drinksB) there is not much difference in taste between Coca-Cola and PepsiC) few people had trouble telling Coca-Cola from PepsiD) people's tastes differ from one another正确答案：B38.It is implied in the first paragraph that ________.A) the purpose of taste tests is to promote the sale of colasB) the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companiesC) the competition between the two colas is very strongD) blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans正确答案：C39.The word "burnout" (in Para. 5) refers to the state of ________.A) being seriously burnt in the skinB) being unable to burn for lack of fuelC) being badly damaged by fireD) being unable to function because of excessive use正确答案：D40.The author's purpose in writing this passage is to ________.A) show that taste preference is highly subjectiveB) argue that taste test is an important marketing strategyC) emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each otherD) recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas正确答案：APart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

And anyon‎e who watch‎e s them regul‎a rly knows‎that each one varie‎s in style‎and forma‎t. But no two shows‎are more profo‎u ndly‎oppos‎i te in conte‎n t, while‎at the same time stand‎ing out above‎the rest, than the Jerry‎Sprin‎ger and the Oprah‎Winfr‎e y shows‎. Jerry‎Sprin‎ger could‎easil‎y be consi‎dered‎the king of "trash‎talk (废话)". The topic‎s on his show are as shock‎ing as shock‎ing can be. For examp‎le, the show takes‎the ever-commo‎n talk show theme‎s of love, sex, cheat‎ing, guilt‎, hate, confl‎ict and moral‎ity to a diffe‎r ent level‎. Clear‎ly, the Jerry‎Sprin‎ger show is a displ‎a y and explo‎itati‎o n of socie‎t y's moral‎ catas‎t roph‎e s (灾难), yet peopl‎e are willi‎n g to eat up the intri‎g uing‎predi‎c amen‎t s (困境) of other‎peopl‎e's lives‎. Like Jerry‎Sprin‎ger, Oprah‎Winfr‎e y takes‎ TV talk show to its extre‎m e, but Oprah‎goes in the oppos‎ite direc‎t ion. The show focus‎e s on the impro‎v emen‎t of socie‎t y and an indiv‎idual‎'s quali‎ty of life. Topic‎s range‎from teach‎i ng your child‎r en respo‎n sibi‎l ity, manag‎i ng your work week, to getti‎n g to know your neigh‎b ors.C ompa‎r ed to Oprah‎, the Jerry‎Sprin‎g er show looks‎like poiso‎n ous waste‎being‎dumpe‎d on socie‎t y. Jerry‎ends every‎show with a "final‎word". He makes‎a small‎speec‎h that sums up the entir‎e moral‎of the show. Hopef‎u lly, this is the part where‎most peopl‎e will learn‎somet‎h ing very valua‎b le.C lean‎as it is, the Oprah‎show is not for every‎o ne. The show's main targe‎t audie‎n ce are middl‎e-class‎Ameri‎c ans. Most of these‎peopl‎e have the time, money‎, and stabi‎l ity to deal with life's tough‎e r probl‎e ms. Jerry‎Sprin‎g er, on the other‎hand, has more of an assoc‎i atio‎n with the young‎adult‎s of socie‎t y. These‎are 18- to 21-year-olds whose‎main troub‎l es in life invol‎v e love, relat‎i onsh‎i p, sex, money‎and peers‎. They are the ones who see some value‎and lesso‎n s to be learn‎e d under‎n eath‎the show's explo‎i tati‎o n.W hile‎the two shows‎are as diffe‎r ent as night‎and day, both have ruled‎the talk show circu‎i t for many years‎now.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) andD). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In the 1950s, the pioneers of artificial intelligence (AI) predicted that, by the end of this century, computers would be conversing with us at work and robots would be performing our housework. But as useful as computers are, they're nowhereclose to achieving anything remotely resembling these early aspirations for humanlike behavior. Never mind something as complex as conversation: the most powerful computers struggleto reliably recognize the shape of an object, the most elementary of tasks for a ten-month-old kid.The problem, the scientists say, is that AI has beentrying to separate the highest, most abstract levels of thought, like language and mathematics, and to duplicate them with logical, step-by-step programs. A new movement in AI, on the other hand, takes a closer look at the more roundabout way in which nature came up with intelligence. Many of these researchers study evolution and natural adaptation instead of formal logic and conventional computer programs. The results of these early efforts are as promising as they are peculiar, and the new nature-based AI movement is slowly but surely moving to the forefront of the field.Imitating the brain's neural network is a huge step in the right direction, says computer scientist and biophysicistMichael Conrad, but it still misses an important aspect ofnatural intelligence. "People tend to treat the brain as if it were made up of color-coded transistors," he explains. "But it's not simply a clever network of switches. There are lots of important things going on inside the brain cells themselves."Right now, the notion that conventional computers andsoftware are fundamentally incapable of matching the processes that take place in the brain remains controversial. But if it proves true, then the efforts of Conrad and his fellow AIrebels could turn out to be the only game in town.31.The author says that the powerful computers of today ____ . A) are capable of reliably recognizing the shape of an objectB) are close to exhibiting humanlikebehaviorC) are not very different in theirperformance from those of the 1950'sD) still cannot communicate with people in a human language正确答案： D32.The new trend in artificial intelligence research stems from _____ . A) the shift of the focus of study on the recognition of the shapes of objectsB) the belief that human intelligence cannot be duplicated with logical, step-by-step programsC) the aspirations of scientists to duplicate theintelligence of a ten-month-old childD) the efforts made by scientists in the study of thesimilarities between transistors and brain cells正确答案： B33.Conrad and his group of AI researchers have been making enormous efforts to_____ . A) find a roundabout way to design powerful computers B) build a computer using a clever network of switchesC) find out how intelligence develops in natureD) separate the highest and most abstract levels ofthought 正确答案： C34.What's the author's opinion about the new AI movement A) It has created a sensation among artificial intelligence researchers. B) It's a breakthrough in duplicating human thoughtprocesses.C) It's more like a peculiar game rather than a realscientific effort.D) It may prove to be in the right direction thoughnobody is sure of its future prospects.正确答案： D35.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase “the only game in town” (in A) The only approach to building an artificially intelligent computer.B) The only way for them to win a prize in artificialintelligence research.C) The only area worth studying in computer science.D) The only game they would like to play in town.正确答案： APassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.It is a devastating prospect. Terrorists electronically break into the computers that control the water supply of a large American city, open and close valves to contaminate the water with untreated sewage or toxic chemicals, and then release it in a devastating flood. As the emergency services struggle to respond, the terrorists strike again, shutting down the telephone network and electrical power grid with just a few mouse clicks. Businesses are paralysed, hospitals are overwhelmed and roads are gridlocked as people try to flee.This kind of scenario is invoked by doom-mongers whoinsist that stepping up physical security since the September 11th attacks is not enough. Road-blocks and soldiers around power stations cannot prevent digital terrorism. "Until we secure our cyber-infrastructure, a few keystrokes and an Internet connection is all one needs to disable the economy andendanger lives," Lamar Smith, a Texas congressman, told a judiciary committee in February.It is true that utility companies and other operators of critical infrastructure are increasingly connected to the Internet. But just because an electricity company's customers can pay their bills online, it does not necessarily follow that the company's critical control systems are vulnerable to attack. Control systems are usually kept entirely separate from other systems, for good reason. They tend to be obscure, old-fashioned systems that are incompatible with Internettechnology anyhow.On September 18th Richard Clarke, America's cyber-security tsar, unveiled his long-awaited blueprint for securing critical infrastructure from digital attacks. It was a bit of a damp squib, making no firm recommendations and proposing no new regulation or legislation. But its lily-livered approach might, in fact, be the right one. When a risk has been overstated, inaction may be the best policy.It is difficult to avoid comparisons with the "millennium bug" and the predictions of widespread computer chaos arising from the change of date to the year 2000. Then, as now, thealarm was sounded by technology vendors and consultants, who stood to gain from scare-mongering. But Ross Anderson, a computer scientist at Cambridge University, prefers to draw an analogy with the environmental lobby.36.We learn from the first paragraph that ____________. A) terrorists could plunge a large American city into chaos through electronic attackB) American people have no experience in dealingwith terrorists C) the computer systems of utility companies arerather vulnerableD) the response of emergency services is far fromsatisfactory正确答案： A37.Speaking of the doom-mongers, the author implies that_____________. A) their worries are quite reasonable B) their warnings should be taken seriously C) they exaggerate the threat utilitycompanies are facingD) they are familiar with the way terroristsstrike正确答案： C38.In the view of Gartner consultant, ___________. A) terrorists may launch another “Pearl Harbor” attack B) terrorists have ample capital and time to prepare a stunning strikeC) it is very costly and time-consuming to attackcritical infrastructureD) it is unlikely that terrorists would resort toelectronic means to attack critical infrastructure正确答案： D39."Lily-livered approach" (in Para. 4) probably means an approach characterized by________. A) flexibility B) boldnessC) cowardiceD) conservatism正确答案： C4.We learn from the last paragraph that__________. A) the computer industry suffered heavy loss due to the "millennium bug"B) doom-mongers care more about their owninterests than national securityC) computer scientists have better judgment than doom-mongersD) environmentalists are criticized for theirefforts of protecting environment正确答案： BPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in thispart.
