In a couple of hours he was going to fly out to France. He was going to be away for at least a year to learn a foreign language and 61 life in a foreign country.It was a milestone in Dan’s li fe, a change from school days to62 .When we were to say goodbye,I 63 closely at his face. I would like to provide him with good64that would last longer than here andnow.But not a sound came over my lips. I 65 motionless and silent, looking 66 my son’s green eyes.I knew that this wasn’t the first time I 67 such an opportunity pass me by. When Daniel was a little boy, I followed him to the bus on the first day in preschool. I 68 the excitement in his hand that held mine when the bus came round the corner. He looked at me—just 69 he did now. And then he boarded the bus and 70 . The bus drove away. And I hadn’t71 a word.Some ten years later, a similar episode 72 .

Why does it have to be so 77 to tell your son how you feel? My mouth was 78 , and I knew I would only say a few words.“Dan,”I79 stammered out(结结巴巴地说),“if I had the choice myself, I would 80 you.”That was all I could say.

So both of them agreed not to83 after choosing a 84 at every fork(岔路口).A road sign at the first fork 85 one way to the lion area and the other to the tiger hill. They decided on the former after a 86 discussion because li ons were “the king of the grassland”. Thesecond showed a division going separately to the panda and peac ock.

Only92 decision could offer more chances for sightseeing and 93possible regret.Life is 94 like this- choices often occur that one has to make, for example, between two 95 jobs, two fascinating wooers(追求者).To get one you 96 give up the other-you can get half of it.

Many countries fought for the power andriches of the newly discovered Americas. Men introduced new ideas whichdemanded great changes in older ideas. Despite these problems and possiblybecause of them, wonderful things were done by the greatest of men.It is indeed difficult to know why in some periods you find many menof genius while in others you may find few. The "Age of Genius", however,produced some of the greatest thinkers, painters, authors, andscientists.In Italy during the High Renaissance (文艺复兴), a period of the "Ageof Genius", three famous painters started their work. They were Leonardoda Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.Leonardo da Vinci is famous not only for his beautiful paintings butalso for his talent in the sciences. One of his best - known painting isthe "Mona Lisa." Michelangelo was also a man of many talents. He was anartist; he wrote poems; he drew plans for buildings; and he worked withother forms of art. His best- known work is the painting on the ceilingof the Sistine Chapel in Rome (罗马西斯教堂).Raphael was known for his painting. He made well-balanced picturesout of many different actions.101.Another name for the 16th century is the .A.Classical AgeB.Middle AgesC."Age of Genius"D.Age of Renaissance102.To know why in some periods you find many intelligent men and few in other is .A.an easy thing to doB. a very difficult thing to doC.not importantD.unnecessary103.Which of the following statements is implied in the first paragraphof the passage?A.Geniuses are born talented.B.Geniuses are often produced in the same age.C.Fighting for the riches of the newly - discovered Americas produced geniuses.D.A period during which new ideas were replacing older ideas might produce geniuses.104.is famous for his paintings and for his talent in science.A.RaphaelB.Leonardo da VinciC.MichelangeloD.Mona Lisa105.Michelangelo is known for .A.his Mona LisaB.his paintings in Sistine ChapelC.his well-balanced picturesD.his contributions to scienceSometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch(门廊)will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions( 预言)from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of newsevents.Most of the technology is available(可用的)now, but convincing(说服)more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the nextstep. But resistance to computer newspaper may be stronger from withinjournalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the presentgeneration of journalists and publishers will have to die off before thenext generation realize that the newspaper industry is no longer anewspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditionalnewspapers unavoidable.Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replacenewsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to completethe changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapershave established financial(财经的)interests in the paper industry.106.The best title for this passage is ./doc/3d18748196.html,puter Newspapers are Well LikedB.Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on ComputerC.Newspapers Are out of FashionD.New Communications Technology107.It might take 30 to 40 years for computer newspapers to replacetraditional newspapers, because .A.it is technologically impossible now/doc/3d18748196.html,puter newspapers are too expensiveC.there is strong resistance from both the general population and professional journalistsD.traditional newspapers are easy to read108.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?A.They are cheaper than traditional newspapersB.They are very convenient to useC.You can get more information from them quicklyD.You can easily save information for future use109.Journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers,because .A.they don’t know how to use computersB.they think computer newspapers take too much time to readC.they think the new technology is badD.they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers110.We can infer from the passage that .A.all technological changes are goodB.all technologies will eventually replace old onesC.new technologies will eventually replace old onesD.traditional newspapers are here to stay for another centuryPassage2Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a greatdeal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personalworth, for self-esteem(自尊心) is the basis of a good mental health. Ayoungster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighterbrothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and became soafraid of failing, that he or she won’t try at all. Of course,they shouldbe corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But thecriticism should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself;it’s like being in a car without brakes(刹车).The parent who says “No”when other parents say “Yes”sends a double message. He is also saying :“I love you, and I’m ready to risk your anger, because I don’t wantyou to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body,and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information thatthey will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy(隐私权)and respect for theirpersonal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted,not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a motherfeels that she must rea d her daughte’r s diary to know what is going on,the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to buildtheir lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinionsof others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The bestway to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie.A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towel(s 毛巾)f r o m a h o t e l w i l l t h i n k t h a t i t i s a l l r igh t t o s t e a l.A y o u n g s t e r w h o s e e s n o l a u g h t e r a n d n o l o v ei n t h e h o m e w i l lh a v e a d i f f i c u l t t i m e l a u g h i n g a n d l o v i n g.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owethe child something. And if you give him his due, h’e ll have somethingof value to pass along to your grandchildren.111.A ccording to the passage, parents owe their children the followingthings except .A. carsB. privacyC. respect of selfD. informationabout their body112.The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because .A.they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB.there is no one to guide and discipline themC.they are afraid of being left aloneD.there is no one to ask for help when in trouble.113.W hich of the following ways is advised for parents to show love totheir children?A.Saying “Yes” to everything the children ask forB.Never embracing older childrenC.Refusing something to the childrenD.Never criticizing children.114.T he word “due” in the last paragraph means .A.something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB.reasonable explanations or plansC.what must be given to someone because it is right or wrongD.the money to be paid115.W hich of the following is true according to the passage?A.Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own livesat an early age.B.Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C.Children shouldn’t be corr ected because it destroys theirself-esteem.D.It is better to compare a youngster to his bright brothers becauseit makes him try harder.Stage plays, at first, seem a lot like films. Both use actors and dialogue and scenery. But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worseyou’ll be wasting a powerful tool —the camera.A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look,a whisper, a trembling of hands.The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this.116.The main idea of the text is that .A.stage plays and films are two different kinds of artB.it is always disappointing to turn play into filmsC.films have certain advantages(长处) over stage playsD.the camera has made film making easy and possible117.What is wrong with making a film by setting up a camera before thestage?A.Fewer and fewer people will go to the theatre.B.The audience cannot see what is going on the stage.C.The scene cannot be changed from time to time.D.The powerful camera cannot be made good use of.118.Which of the following can show that the camera is a powerful tool?A.It can move easily.B.It can make small things look larger.C.It can show things in the future.D.It can give us a scene of realism.119.In what way are plays different from film?A.Films often use real scenery while plays don’t.B.Films can show the past while plays can’t.C.Films change scenes while plays don’t.D.Film audience can move while play audience can’t.120. A suitable title for this text is .A. Stage Plays and FilmB. The Powerful CameraC. Fewer Plays, More FilmsD. Less Waste, More FreedomPassage3If an American is satisfied with you, he will put his thumb and forefinger into a circle. That means OK. But in Brazil, the very sign is considered to be rude. In Poland, a guest usually presents flowers to his hostess. The number must be an odd(奇数) one. Besides, the hostess isn’t expected to remove the cover of the bunch of flowers. And usually, red rose is a sign of love.Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake our heads to show disapproval. To our surprise these body movements mean the opposite in Bulgaria(保加利亚).The differences in customs and cultures in the world are really noticeable. We should learn more about them to avoid them and to avoidembarrassment(窘迫). Then, would you please remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.121.In Poland, if a man gives some odd red roses to woman as a present, it means that he .A. will invite her to a dinner partyB. has not been in love withherC. will invite her to a ballD. has fallen in love withher122.If a Brazilian puts his thumb and index(食指) into a circle, it shows that he you.A. will be friends withB. is not satisfied withC. is willing to helpD. is satisfied with123.In Poland, it is for the hostess to remove the cover of the bunch of flower somebody presented to her.A. impoliteB. politeC. expectedD. unexpected124.In Bulgaria, if a man nods, it means that he with you.A. will have a talkB. disagreesC. will shake handsD.agrees125.The sentence “When in Rome, do as the Romans d o”means that .A.we should learn from the RomansB.we should work as the Romans doC.we should obey its customs when we are entering a country.D.we have been RomansEvery artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want so say it well, but he wants itto be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand —he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visual (视觉的)artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel thata certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions。

For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the ONE that you think is the best answer.Your success in your studies will also depend upon your motivation(动机). This need or desire to achieve a certain goal can make the difference between success and failure. Motivation can come from two sources: from inside of you or from outside of you. In the first case, motivation comes from your hopes and expectations, from your desire to do something or to be someone. Study purposes that result from personal inner desires are individual, and various. If you have not already done so, you should think carefully about what you hope to gain from your studies, and why. You should set a goal and direct all your study efforts toward reaching it. A goal of this kind is important because it will determine the direction and degree of your motivation for study.Not everyone is highly motivated from within and no one is continuously motivated from within. Fortunately there is another sourceof motivation: from outside. In education the most obvious kind of outside motivation is grades. For many students, course grades are an immediate, short-range motivation for study. This is one of the reasons for examinations and grades, but they must not become a goal in themselves. Grades help to motivate you from day to day, but they are only small, artificial steps to your ultimate goal. It would be wrong to set grades as your only ambition.A textbook like this cannot provide you with motivation; that must come from yourself. But as an encouragement, it is useful to know that good study habits depend upon good motivation. And good study habits are important because they help you get more done in less time. It is not a matter of how much you study; more important is how well you study.11. Inside motivation comes from______.A. your need and desireB. your hopes and expectationsC. your desire to do something or to be someoneD. both B and C12. Study purposes_______.A. are different from person to personB. are personal inner desiresC. share some common pointsD. should be carefully made13. If you haven’t set a goal in your studies, _______.A. you will most probably become a failureB. you will never be a good studentC. you may lose direction and lack motivationD. you won’t have good study habits14. According to the passage, why are examinations and grades necessary in education?A. Because they can make the difference between success and failure.B. Because they can motivate many students to study harder.C. Because they can check what you have gained from your studies.D. Because they are small, artificial steps to an ultimate goal.15. If you want to be an efficient learner, you must_______.A. have clear study purposesB. be always motivated from both inside and outsideC. set grades as your ambitionD. have good study habitsPart IV Cloze (25 points)Directions: There are 5 blanks in the following passage.

Many countries fought for the power andriches of the newly discovered Americas. Men introduced new ideas whichdemanded great changes in older ideas. Despite these problems and possiblybecause of them, wonderful things were done by the greatest of men.It is indeed difficult to know why in some periods you find many menof genius while in others you may find few. The "Age of Genius", however,produced some of the greatest thinkers, painters, authors, andscientists.In Italy during the High Renaissance (文艺复兴), a period of the "Ageof Genius", three famous painters started their work. They were Leonardoda Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.Leonardo da Vinci is famous not only for his beautiful paintings butalso for his talent in the sciences. One of his best - known painting isthe "Mona Lisa." Michelangelo was also a man of many talents. He was anartist; he wrote poems; he drew plans for buildings; and he worked withother forms of art. His best- known work is the painting on the ceilingof the Sistine Chapel in Rome (罗马西斯教堂).Raphael was known for his painting. He made well-balanced picturesout of many different actions.101.Another name for the 16th century is the .A.Classical AgeB.Middle AgesC."Age of Genius"D.Age of Renaissance102.To know why in some periods you find many intelligent men and few in other is .A.an easy thing to doB. a very difficult thing to doC.not importantD.unnecessary103.Which of the following statements is implied in the first paragraphof the passage?A.Geniuses are born talented.B.Geniuses are often produced in the same age.C.Fighting for the riches of the newly - discovered Americas produced geniuses.D.A period during which new ideas were replacing older ideas might produce geniuses.104.is famous for his paintings and for his talent in science.A.RaphaelB.Leonardo da VinciC.MichelangeloD.Mona Lisa105.Michelangelo is known for .A.his Mona LisaB.his paintings in Sistine ChapelC.his well-balanced picturesD.his contributions to scienceSometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch(门廊)will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions( 预言 )from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of newsevents.Most of the technology is available(可用的)now, but convincing(说服)more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the nextstep. But resistance to computer newspaper may be stronger from withinjournalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the presentgeneration of journalists and publishers will have to die off before thenext generation realize that the newspaper industry is no longer anewspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditionalnewspapers unavoidable.Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replacenewsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to completethe changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapershave established financial(财经的)interests in the paper industry.106.The best title for this passage is .puter Newspapers are Well LikedB.Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on ComputerC.Newspapers Are out of FashionD.New Communications Technology107.It might take 30 to 40 years for computer newspapers to replacetraditional newspapers, because .A.it is technologically impossible nowputer newspapers are too expensiveC.there is strong resistance from both the general population and professional journalistsD.traditional newspapers are easy to read108.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?A.They are cheaper than traditional newspapersB.They are very convenient to useC.You can get more information from them quicklyD.You can easily save information for future use109.Journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers,because .A.they don’t know how to use computersB.they think computer newspapers take too much time to readC.they think the new technology is badD.they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers110.We can infer from the passage that .A.all technological changes are goodB.all technologies will eventually replace old onesC.new technologies will eventually replace old onesD.traditional newspapers are here to stay for another centuryPassage2Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a greatdeal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personalworth, for self-esteem(自尊心) is the basis of a good mental health. Ayoungster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighterbrothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and became soafraid of failing, that he or she won’t try at all. Of course, they shouldbe corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But thecriticism should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself;it’s like being in a car without brakes(刹车).The parent who says “No”when other parents say “Yes”sends a double message. He is also saying :“I love you, and I’m ready to risk your anger, because I don’t wantyou to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body,and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information thatthey will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy(隐私权)and respect for theirpersonal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted,not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a motherfeels that she must read her daughte’r s diary to know what is going on,the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to buildtheir lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinionsof others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The bestway to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie.A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towel(s 毛巾)f r o m a h o t e l w i l l t h i n k t h a t i t i s a l l r igh t t o s t e a l.A y o u n g s t e r w h o s e e s n o l a u g h t e r a n d n o l o v ei n t h e h o m e w i l lh a v e a d i f f i c u l t t i m e l a u g h i n g a n d l o v i n g.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owethe child something. And if you give him his due, h’e ll have somethingof value to pass along to your grandchildren.111.A ccording to the passage, parents owe their children the followingthings except .A. carsB. privacyC. respect of selfD. informationabout their body112.The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because .A.they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB.there is no one to guide and discipline themC.they are afraid of being left aloneD.there is no one to ask for help when in trouble.113.W hich of the following ways is advised for parents to show love totheir children?A.Saying “Yes” to everything the children ask forB.Never embracing older childrenC.Refusing something to the childrenD.Never criticizing children.114.T he word “due” in the last paragraph means .A.something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB.reasonable explanations or plansC.what must be given to someone because it is right or wrongD.the money to be paid115.W hich of the following is true according to the passage?A.Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own livesat an early age.B.Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C.Children shouldn’t be corrected because it destroys theirself-esteem.D.It is better to compare a youngster to his bright brothers becauseit makes him try harder.Stage plays, at first, seem a lot like films. Both use actors and dialogue and scenery. But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worse you’ll be wasting a powerful tool —the camera.A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look,a whisper, a trembling of hands.The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this.116.The main idea of the text is that .A.stage plays and films are two different kinds of artB.it is always disappointing to turn play into filmsC.films have certain advantages(长处) over stage playsD.the camera has made film making easy and possible117.What is wrong with making a film by setting up a camera before thestage?A.Fewer and fewer people will go to the theatre.B.The audience cannot see what is going on the stage.C.The scene cannot be changed from time to time.D.The powerful camera cannot be made good use of.118.Which of the following can show that the camera is a powerful tool?A.It can move easily.B.It can make small things look larger.C.It can show things in the future.D.It can give us a scene of realism.119.In what way are plays different from film?A.Films often use real scenery while plays don’t.B.Films can show the past while plays can’t.C.Films change scenes while plays don’t.D.Film audience can move while play audience can’t.120. A suitable title for this text is .A. Stage Plays and FilmB. The Powerful CameraC. Fewer Plays, More FilmsD. Less Waste, More FreedomPassage3If an American is satisfied with you, he will put his thumb and forefinger into a circle. That means OK. But in Brazil, the very sign is considered to be rude. In Poland, a guest usually presents flowers to his hostess. The number must be an odd(奇数) one. Besides, the hostess isn’t expected to remove the cover of the bunch of flowers. And usually, red rose is a sign of love.Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake our heads to show disapproval. To our surprise these body movements mean the opposite in Bulgaria(保加利亚).The differences in customs and cultures in the world are really noticeable. We should learn more about them to avoid them and to avoidembarrassment(窘迫). Then, would you please remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.121.In Poland, if a man gives some odd red roses to woman as a present, it means that he .A. will invite her to a dinner partyB. has not been in love withherC. will invite her to a ballD. has fallen in love withher122.If a Brazilian puts his thumb and index(食指) into a circle, it shows that he you.A. will be friends withB. is not satisfied withC. is willing to helpD. is satisfied with123.In Poland, it is for the hostess to remove the cover of the bunch of flower somebody presented to her.A. impoliteB. politeC. expectedD. unexpected124.In Bulgaria, if a man nods, it means that he with you.A. will have a talkB. disagreesC. will shake handsD.agrees125.The sentence “When in Rome, do as the Romans d o”means that .A.we should learn from the RomansB.we should work as the Romans doC.we should obey its customs when we are entering a country.D.we have been RomansEvery artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want so say it well, but he wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand —he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visual (视觉的)artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel thata certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billionspossible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist. Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and repose; their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merel(y 仅仅) choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without reference to the character of their subjects. If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous (生坏疽的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something —all of which mean that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us. 126.All artists are common in that .A.they use shapes and colors instead of wordsB.they are trying to teach the publicC.what they want to teach is difficult to explainD.they want to learn from the public127.A painter chooses certain shapes and colors out of the countless billions possible because he believes they .A.are beautifulB.can bring delight to himC.are worth showing to the publicD.are particular128.C ontemporary artists choose subjects .A.without reference to the character of their subjectsB.that only provide an interesting patternC.that there is no meaning in itD.partly for the meaning of the subjects129.C omparing the painter who paints a gangrenous leg with the one who。
