All we really known is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions, and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined 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, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled 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 us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal 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. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar . (239words)26. The origin of language is _______D__________A. a legend handed down from the pastB. a matter that is hidden or secret.C. a question difficult to answer.D. a problem not yet solved.27. What is true about words? ______C__________A. They are used t to express feelings only.B. They can not be written downC. They are simply sounds.D. They are mysterious.28. The real power of words lies in their ___D________.A. propertiesB. characteristicsC. peculiarityD. representative function29. By “association”, the author means ______B_______.A. a special qualityB. a joining of ideas in the mind.C. an appearance which is puzzling.D. a strange feature.30. Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true? ___A_______A. He is no more than a master of words.B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C. He can move men to tears.D. His style is always charming.Passage 2Long, long ago there was a very foolish thief. Do you know what he did one day? When he wanted to steal the bell on his neighbor's door, he walked up to the door, took hold of the bell and pulled hard. The bell made a very loud noise. The thief was afraid and went home.Then he sat down to think, "I must do something about the noise," he said. He thought and thought. At last he had an idea. "Ah, I'll put some cotton in my ears. Then I won't be able to hear the noise." The next day he went to the door of his neighbor, and took hold of the bell. This time he pulled even harder. The bell rang loudly, but the thief did not hear anything. With another hard pull he got the bell out. Just then the neighbor came running out."Steal my bell? I'll teach you a lesson," the angry man shouted. And he hit the thief on the nose.The foolish thief did not know how the neighbor found out he was stealing the bell. "Why did he come out just then?" he wondered.31. The thief was trying to get his neighbor's doorbell.AA. TB. F32. The thief put some cotton in his ears so as not to hear anythingA.A. TB. F33.

FPassage 3It has been reported that in colleges across the United States, the daytime serial drama known as the soap opera has suddenly become "in". Between the hours of 11 a.m. and 4:30 p.m, college television lounges are filled with soap opera fans who can't wait to see the next episode in the lives of their favorite characters.Actually, soaps are more than a college favorite; they're a youth favorite. When school is out, high-school students are in front of their TV sets. One young working woman admitted that she turned down a higher paying job rather than give up watching her favorite serials. During the 1960's, it was uncommon for young people to watch soap operas. The mood of the sixties was very different from now. It was a time of seriousness, and talk was about social issues of great importance.Now, seriousness has been replaced by fun. Young people want to be happy. It may seem strange that they should turn to soap opera, which is known for showing trouble in people's lives. But soap opera is enjoyment. Young people can identify with the soap opera character, who, like the college-age viewer, is looking for happy love, and probably not finding it. And soap opera gives young people a chance to feel close to people without having to bear any responsibility for their problems.36. What is soap opera? ___C_____A. Plays based on science fiction stories.B. Plays based on non-fiction stories.C. The daytime serial dramas on TV.D. Popular documentary films on TV.37. What can be the best title of the passage? ___C_____A. College student viewers.B. Favorite TV serials.C. Soap opera fans.D. College-age viewers.38. Which is not the reason why the soap opera suddenly becomes "in" according to the passage? _____D___A. Because the viewers want to be happy and to enjoy themselves.B. Because the soap opera makes young people feel close to their people.C. Because the viewers can find themselves in the soap opera characters.D. Because the young people have to bear the responsibilities for their troubles.39. What can we learn from the passage? ___C_____A. College students like soap operas more than any other social groups.B. Young people of sixties liked soap operas more than people today.C. Young viewers have turned themselves from the seriousness of sixties to enjoyment now.D. The young as a whole are trying to look for happy love but in vain.40. What message does the author want to convey to us? ____B____A. The people's favor toward drama works has been changed for a long time.B. The people's favor toward drama works changes along with the times.C. The people's favor toward drama works is changed by the soap opera.D. The people's favor has changed the drama works.四、完形填空 Cloze（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分)Homesickness is very common among students away from home — even those who had previously been away at overnight camp or traveled far away.

Unit 3你能证明地球是圆的吗?来试试看吧!你将依靠你自己的智力还是不得不引用专家的观点呢?我们为什么相信地球是圆的?乔治·奥韦尔记得在什么地方——我想是在《圣女贞德》序言中——肖伯纳评论说,今天我们比在中世纪时更加轻信,更加迷信。

而作为现代轻信的例证,他举出地圆说这一广为传播的信念。

肖伯纳说,普通人举不出一条理由来说明为什么相信地球是圆的。

他全盘接受这一理论,只是因为这一理论中有一种迎合20世纪心态的东西。

当然,肖伯纳是夸大其词了,但他说的也确实有些道理,这一问题值得进一步探讨,因为它会帮助人们看清现代知识的真实情况。

我们究竟为什么会相信地球是圆的呢?我说的不是数千位天文学家、地理学家之类的人,他们可以用观察到的事实或用理论上的根据来证实这一点,我指的是如同你我之辈的报纸的普通读者。

至于“地平说”,我相信我能够加以驳斥。

如果你在天气晴朗的日子站立海边,你可以看到船桅和烟囱沿着地平线移动而不见船体本身。

只有假设地球表面呈曲线状,这一现象才能得到解释。

但不能由此推断地球是球形的。

设想另一个称做“地球卵形说”的理论吧,这一学说声称地球形如蛋状。

对此,我能说什么加以反驳呢?面对“地球卵形说”者,我能打的第一张牌是,可以根据太阳和月亮来类推。

“地球卵形说”者立即回敬道,我无法根据自己的观察得知那些天体是球形的。

我只能得知他们是圆的,而它们完全可能呈扁平的圆盘状。

我对此无言以答。

此外,他还会说,我凭什么理由认为地球一定与太阳和月亮的形状相同?对此,我同样无法解答。

我的第二张牌是地球的影子: 月食期间,地球投在月亮上的影子看上去呈圆形物体状。

但“地球卵形说”者马上要问,我怎么知道月食是由地球的影子造成的呢?回答是,我并不知道,我只是照搬报刊文章和科普小册子上的说法而已。

小小交锋受挫,于是我打出一张王牌“Q”: 专家的看法。

英国格林威治皇家天文台台长总该是权威了,他告诉我说地球是圆的。

“地球卵形说”者用他的“K”牌压倒我的“Q”牌。

All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associations—the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled 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 increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal 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. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech sillyand vulgar. (239 words)26. The origin of language is D .A. a legend handed down from the pastB. a matter that is hidden or secretC. a question difficult to answerD. a problem not yet solved27. What is true about words?CA. They are used to express feelings only.B. They can not be written down.C. They are simply sounds.D. They are mysterious.28. The real power of words lies in their D .A. propertiesB. characteristicsC. peculiarityD. representative function29. By "association", the author means B .A. a special qualityB. a joining of ideas in the mindC. an appearance which is puzzlingD. a strange feature30. Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?AA. He is no more than a master of words.B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C. He can move men to tears.D. His style is always charming.Passage 2Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in Londonwithout a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theaters, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night. (287 words)31. Which of the following statements is NOT true?BA. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country.C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city.32. With the same money needed for C , one can buy a little house with a garden in thecountry.A. getting a small flat with a gardenB. having a small flat with a gardenC. renting a small flat without a gardenD. buying a small flat without a gardenA. living in the countryB. having spent time working in the gardenC. having a garden of his ownD. having been digging, planting and wateringoutside London.A. their life was meaninglessB. their life was invaluableC. they didn't deserve a happy lifeD. they were not worthy of their happy lifeA. deal withB. do away withC. escape fromD. prevent fromPassage 3By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others----they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation's consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us----an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星) , who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That's hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more thana tragic death----such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana. (258 words)36. The passage mainly deals with C .A. life and deathB. heroes and heroinesC. heroes and iconsD. icons and celebrities37. Heroes and heroines are usually D .A. courageousB. good examples to followC. self-sacrificingD. all of the above38. Which of the following statements is wrong?DA.

Heroes and heroines can only emerge in war times.39. Beautiful young Diana Spencer found her genuine love C .A. when she was 19B. when she became a princessC. just before her deathD. after she gave birth to a prince40. What is more likely to set an icon's status?BA. Good looks.B. Tragic and early death.C. Personal attraction.D.
