Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter.Proactive Strategies to Build a Social LifeA) A lot of people believe that developing a social life is something that should just happen and develop naturally, without you needing to do anything. I disagree. I think that while this can happen for some folks, in certain stages of their life, it’s not always the case, which is why many of us today lack a fulfilling social life. If you’re in college where you get to hang around lots of other people and you’re naturally a social person, your social circle will develop on its own. But if you’re an accountant working in cubicle all day and you’re kind of shy and don’t go out much, your social life may be seriously deficient.B) In my view, building a social life requires the same active and strategic approach that making money or building a career requires. The approach is based on setting goals and acting on them. Coming from this angle, I want to show you some proactive (积极主动的) strategies to build a social life.C) A fulfilling social life looks differently for different people. Some of us need lots of friends and a large social circle. Some of us are more fond of having just a few friends, but who are very close to us. And some prefer a mix of the two. What is your preference? Do you know? Take some time to think about this and visualize what your ideal social circle would look like.D) Another aspect to think about is what kind of people you want in your social circle. Do you prefer people who are artistic, or people who are tech-oriented? People who are outdoorsy or prefer to be indoors? Usually, you will get along best with individuals who are similar to you. So I advise you to consider your dominant traits and consciously decide which of these traits are important for you to find in others. If you know what kind of people you want in your life, you’re much more likely to find them.E) Once you know how many and what kind of friends you’re looking for, it’stime to take action in order to meet them. This m ay seem obvious, but it’s something many of us ignore: If you just wait for others to come to you, you’ll never build a social circle. You must have the initiative and go to them.F) My recommendation here is to think about activities where you are likely to meet people you’d enjoy interacting with, and get involved in a few of them. For instance, you may take a class on a topic you’re interested in. You may volunteer for a charity organization or join some sort of club. Even if you don’t have any friends whatsoever at this point, you can apply this strategy. You can get involved in such activities all by yourself, and you’ll meet others there.G) In using this strategy, the Internet is your friend. You can discover all sorts of classes, social events, clubs and organizations near you online. But keep in mind that this is only the first step. Then you need to actually get out of the house, go there and participate.H) So you attend a training program on, let’s say, urban photography. There are lots of other people there. What do you do? In general, the passive approach tends to prevail. Many of us just sit around doing nothing and expect others to come talk to us, ask us questions, and be chatty. And this may happen, or it may not. One thing I’m certain of,though, is that it’s not the best approach. You want to be friendly first. Be the one to break the ice.I) Walk up to other people and introduce yourself to them. Then start chatting with them. For example, ask them how they found out about the event, how long they’ve been interested in urban photography, change from there into other topics, and if they seem to enjoy talking to you (which they almost always will), keep the conversation going. Doing this may not be easy at first, especially if you’re not used to being this outgoing, but it’s something you get used to with practice. The trick is not to let hesitancy prevent you from being social. And I can tell from experience that if you are social and friendly with new people first, they’ll love you for it.J) If you’re building a new social life from scratch, the beginning is always the hardest part. However, once you’ve met a few people, it gets a lot easier because you can then make use of them to meet even more people. You can then meet some of their friends and acquaintances, and expand your social circle further.K) Again, a proactive approach works miracles. Let your friends know that you’re interested in meeting new people and you’d love to be introduced to other people they know. If they indeed ar e your friends, they’ll love to help you out. They may invite you to come with them to parties they go to, they may call other people to join you when you go out, and they’ll introduce you to new people. But you have to let them know their help is desired.L) The best part is that the bigger your social circle becomes, the easier it is to employ this strategy. Your social life will expand faster and faster, and you’ll find it progressively easier to find people you match well with.M) Your social life is completely in your hands. You can have a social life as rich, connected and diverse as you want. All you need is to do a bit of smart planning in this area, and take massive action. There is certainly no shortage of possibilities to meet people and make fr iends. It’s up to you to capitalize on them. Good luck!1)You will meet some people you would like to interact with when you take part in some activities. F2)People’s ideas of a satisfying social life vary from person to person. C3)You can enlarge your social circle by taking advantage of your current friends. J4)Nowadays many people lack a happy and satisfying social life because their social life doesn’t always develop naturally as they think. A5)You have complete control over your social life and you can have a fulfilling one by making plans and taking actions. M6)The common thing between building a social life and building a career is that they both require using some methods and strategies actively. B7)It’s not easy to be outgoing and sociable among the people you don’t know, but you’ll be used to it with practice. I8)It will be helpful in building your ideal social circle if you know your major characteristics and personality. D9)Many people often ignore that they should go to find friends actively and not simply wait for others to come to them. E10)Suppose you participate in a training program, you are advised to be friendly and break the silence first. H参考答案：1) F 2) C 3) J 4) A 5) M 6) B 7) I 8) D 9) E 10) H阅读理解15题，总分值：30分Directions：Read the following passages carefully. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.When the telephone rings late at night, most women guess it must be one of only four or five people calling. A sister? Maybe. An emergency? Possibly. A mother? Probably not at that time of night. Much more likely it is a close female friend—someone calling to tell you that she has split up with her boyfriend again or perhaps simply that a good movie has just started on TV.At a time when families are spread far and wide and marriages often end in divorce, friendships of intimacy and trust are becoming more and more important. Erika, a 32-year-old lawyer, is strengthened by her ten-year friendship with her married friend Jane. “I was very sick one night, and so I called Jane at about 3:00a.m. to talk about it,” she says. “She was very supportive and even came over to take me to the doctor’s the next morning.”As American TV shows like Friends, which follows the lives of a very close group of young friends, have become very popular, many of us are beginning to see the value of such friendships. TV shows like this tell us that our romantic relationships may not last, but we need to keep in touch with ourclose friends if we want to survive. Also, a TV show called Real Women is about the lives and relationships of five former school friends. In this show, family, husbands, and work are all less important than friendships. Friendship is about commitment and loyalty.This is true of Erika and Jane’s friendship. With Erica’s family 200 miles away, it is Jane who keep s a spare set of keys to Erika’s apartment and waters her plants whenever she is away. “Having Jane around gives me a certain amount of freedom. It is not the kind of thing that you could ask anyone to do, but she knows I would do the same for her.” Jane, who may move to a different city soon, is worried about leaving such a support system of friends. “My friends have more to do with my life than my parents and, therefore, I don’t have to spend a lot of time explaining things to them. Friends are more up to date with what is happening.”11)Friendship is becoming more important because ________.A. people often do not live near their familiesB. people do not getalong with their families C. families are not as dependable asfriends D. all marriages end in divorce12)Friends have become more important than family because ________.A. friends are more intimate than family membersB. friends need tobe together all the time C. friends are there when these people needhelp D. friends can talk about anything to each other13)Good friends usually ________.A. see each other after a long time and are still friendsB. trust andsay “thank you” to each other C. trust each other and treat each othernicely D. do not always have to tell each other truth14)Why does the author mention two TV shows about friendship?A. Friends need to be loyal to each other.B. Friendship meanscommitment and sacrifice. C. Friends shouldn’t keep secret to eachother. D. Friendship is becoming more important nowadays.15)What can you infer from the passage?A. Nothing is more important than friendship.B. Friends are just like anew family in many ways. C. People should help each other to establishfriendship. D. Friends are those who can help when they are needed.参考答案：11) A 12) C 13) C 14) D 15) BCan you imagine life without French fries? Potatoes are very popular today. They are the fourth most important crop in the world, after wheat, rice, and corn. But in the past, potatoes were not always popular. People in Europe started to eat them only 200 years ago!In the 1500s, the Spanish went to South America to look for gold. There, they found people eating potatoes for 7000 years! The Spanish brought the potato back to Europe with them. But people in Europe did not like this strange vegetable. Some people thought that if you ate potatoes, your skin would look like the skin of a potato. Other people could not believe that you ate the underground part of the plant, so they ate the leaves instead. This made themsick because there is poison in the leaves. Others grew potatoes for their flowers. At one time in France, potato flowers were one of the most expensive flowers.Around 1780, the people of Ireland started to eat potatoes. They found that potatoes had many advantages. The potato grew on poor land, and it grew well in their cold and rainy climate. It gave more food than any other plant, and it needed little work. All they had to do was to plant the potatoes, and then they could do other work on the farm. On a small piece of land, a farmer could grow enough potatoes to feed his family. A person could eat eight to ten pounds of potatoes a day, with some milk or cheese, and be very healthy. Soon, potatoes became the main food in Ireland. In 1845, a disease killed all the potatoes in Ireland. Two million people died of hunger. Many Irish who did not die came to the United States at this time.In other parts of Europe, people did not want to change their old food habits. Some preferred to die of hunger rather than eat potatoes. Today, many countries have their own potato dishes. Germans eat potato salad, the United States has the baked potato, and the French invented French fries.16)Which statement is true?A. Potatoes are only popular in France.B. Potatoes are not verypopular today. C. Potatoes are the most important crop in theworld. D. Potatoes were not very popular in the past.17)In the 1500s, people in Europe ________.A. found gold and potatoes from PeruB. found potatoes could harmpeople’s skin C. found potatoes were strange vegetables D. found potatoes and invented French fries18)Only in about 1780 did people start to ________.A. grow potatoes for their flowersB. go to Peru to look forgold C. eat potatoes in Ireland D. eat eight to ten pounds of potatoes a day19)What is one of the advantages of potatoes?A. They grow well in cold and dry weather.B. They have higherproductivity compared with others. C. They can be grown with otherplants. D. They can be eaten along with milk or cheese.20)What statement best illustrates the main idea of the passage?A. How potatoes become popular.B. Why potatoes are a goodvegetable. C. Why potatoes are healthy and tasty. D. How potatoes have been consumed.参考答案：16) D 17) C 18) C 19) B 20) AWhen looking for love, people may go to some extreme lengths. They might go on blind dates set up by family and friends. They might write personal ads to place in newspapers. Or they might use a computer to help them in their search for a soul mate by joining an online dating service. Some people have even tried to find their perfect match through game shows on television. Many of these TV dating shows, including The Bachelor and Who Wants to Marry a Multimillionaire, have proved to have millions of viewers watching each week to find out which of the contestants will find true love.Of all these game shows, perhaps the one with the most unexpected ending was Mr. Right, which was shown in England in 2002. On the show, a bachelor, thirty-five-year-old Lance Gerrard-Wright, dated 15 women to find the one who was his ideal partner. For seven weeks on the show, Gerrard-Wright,took turns going on dates with each of the women, taking them to expensive restaurants and exotic locations.

You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.These days it is very common for young men to give flowers to young women w hen they are in love, but this hasn’t always been the custom. In the 1700s in Turkey, it was quite 26) popular for people in love to secretly send each other baskets full of strange things. 27) Usually , an old woman who sold flowers or fruit on the street was 28) (inclined) to leave the basket beside the door of someone receiving it.These gift baskets 29) included a variety of objects such as flowers, stones, feathers, and even charcoal (木炭). Each thing in the basket had a(n) 30) special meaning and by figuring out the secret message contained in each item, the person who 31) (deserved) to receive the basket could determine the true feelings of the giver. This idea of sending gifts of love with 32) concealed meanings quickly spread to Germany, France, and England. 33) Unfortunately , over time, only sending flowers remained popular.A 34) bunch of flowers told young ladies about the feelings in the hearts of young men. Each 35) cute flower had a different meaning. For example, pink flowers 36) (confessed)the feeling, “My love for you is strong and great.” The flowers from an orange tree meant, “You’re beautiful and pure.” Yellow roses, 37) on the other hand , meant, “I saw you with someone else.” Many flower dictionaries were made to help young people in love 38) (clarify) the meaning of the flowers they received.Not all of the dictionaries agreed 39) on the definite meaning of each flower, though, so a person had to be 40) cautious about what flowers they chose to send. For example, 41) depending on which dictionary you used and which color you gave, a young man’s roses could42) convey different meanings, “I love you,” “love is dangerous,” or even, “my love has decreased.” The 43) notion of using flowers to send messages had fallen out of 44) fashion by the 1880s. Afterwards, sending love letters, a 45) (more direct) way to express love commenced. Today, flowers are still considered a lovely gift, but the meaning for each kind of flowers has been lost.26)A. averageB. popularC. familiarD. standard27)A. UsuallyB. MostlyC. ChieflyD.

Each word can be used only once.Choosing a husband or wife is one of the most important decisions in a person’s life. In many cultures, young men and women are46) daring to choose their own marriage partners. In some cultures, however, parents 47) reserve the right to arrange their children’s marriages. Such arranged marriages have both advantages and disadvantages.One advantage of having parents arrange a marriage is financial 48) security . Of course, money doesn’t automatically bring happiness, but a 49) lack of money certainly causes stress in any relationship. A second advantage of an arranged marriage is that parents may 50) make a better choice than their children. They are not only older but also more 51) superior in life experience. Also, parents have been married; therefore, they know better what qualities are 52) desirable in a spouse.On the other hand, arranged marriages may have some disadvantages. One obvious disadvantage is that parents may choose a wrong person in 53) haste , and the young couple may never be happy together. A second obvious disadvantage is that a young man or woman may already have 54) fallen in love with someone else. If the parents force their children to tie the knot, the result will be a disaster to all concerned.In conclusion, neither an arranged marriage nor a marriage for love is a good 55) formula to be happy. Both kinds of marriages take work, patience, and perhaps a little bit of luck.• A. dictate• B. deserve• C. make• D. reserve• E. charity• F. formula•G. security•H. demanding•I. daring•J. fallen•K. lack•L. desirable•M. available•N. haste•O. superior46) daring 47) reserve 48) security 49) lack 50) make 51) superior 52) desirable 53) haste 54) fallen 55) formula。

Strong-willed people, on the other hand will stand up against all odds and will make it a point to succeed.Unit 2实现中华民族伟大复兴（rejuvenation）是近代以来中国人民最伟大的梦想，我们称之为“中国梦”，其基本内涵是实现国家富强、民族振兴、人民幸福。

U3 reading comprehensionPart 1 Reading comprehension (Each item: 1 point(s))Directions: Read the following passages carefully. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.An additional life phase between adolescence a nd adulthood has been added. Too often, when young adults have not yet accomplished many of the tasks and challenges commonly expected of them after they leave college, they are characterized as "lost,""not having found themselves," or, worse, "dysfunctional."Many parents continue to hope, and perhaps expect, that their children will know clearly about their career aspirations and be actively on the path toward a professional life by graduation day. Often, they get their wish. Many graduates, however, complete college with considerable career uncertainty. They may need a period of post-graduate exploration and experimentation before coming close to a career choice that feels right to them. In my psychotherapy (心理治疗) practice, I have seen many youngsters who either referred themselves for help or were referred by concerned others, typically their parents. The anxiety or depression they reported is often related to phase-of-life. Some young adults feel unprepared when they leave home or college and try to establish a separate and independent life. Others, however, similarly depressed or anxious, simply may not have yet figured out the terms and conditions of their adulthood, including career choice.Some universities are working to create a program to send their newly admitted students for a year of social service work in a foreign country before they set foot on campus as freshmen. Such a program would give students a more international perspective, which will add to their maturity and give them a break from academic pressures. Similarly, growing numbers of high school students have chosen to take a "gap year" before entering college.Some parents may worry, however, that once their children get away from the traditional pattern of high school-college they may lose interest in attending university. In fact, the "gap year" makes "the odyssey years" more meaningful as these young adults try to figure out how to establish their future career.1. Why are young adults sometimes characterized as "lost"?A. They don't really accomplish much after graduation.B. They lost their energy in searching for jobs.C. They face many challenges in their career.D. They simply couldn't do anything.2. What should graduates with career uncertainty do?A. They should know clearly about their career aspirations.B. They should be actively on the path toward their career.C. They need to consult with people who're experienced.D. They need a period of post-graduate exploration.3. What's the purpose for some young people to go to psychotherapy?A. They are unable to be independent.B. They want to make their parents happy.C. They want to know how to handle their life.D. They are unprepared for their career choice.4. Why do universities want to send students to a foreign country?A. It is to enable students to burn out stress.B. It is to broaden students' horizons.C. It is to let students become more mature.D. It is to make sure students won't be lost.5. What message does the author want to send out?A. Parents should stop worrying about their children's career.B. Young people are following a different pattern of life.C. It's necessary for young adults to take a year off to explore their life.D. Young adults should figure out how to establish their future career.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.As the first generations to grow up in a wired world, teenagers hardly know a time when computers weren't around, and they leap at the chance to spend hours online, chatting with friends and searching the web for their interested topics. So what?But researchers n ationwide are increasingly concerned that teenagers a re becoming more isolated, less skillful at interpersonal relationships, and perhaps numb to the small-or-big cheating that is so much a part of the e-mail world. Researchers a re asking just how the futures of teenagers a re changed when so many of them are spending hours on the Internet each day, replacing face-to-face contact with computer contact.Teens, who used computers even just a few hours a week, showed increased signs of loneliness and social isolation. These teens have fewer friends to hang around with, possibly because their computer time has replaced the hours they would have spent with others. They don't see anything strange in the fact that the computer screen occupies a central place in their social lives. They think school is stressful and busy. There's almost no time to just hang out. Talking online is just catch-up time.Many teens acknowledge there's an unreal quality to their cyberspace communication, including their odd shorthand terms, such as POS (parent over shoulder) or LOL (laughing out loud). This code is considered as part of the exclusive shared language that teenagers love. When it comes to e-mail exchanges, teens also show a remarkabletolerance for each other's excuses or tricks. Nor are they surprised when a mere acquaintance unloads a personal secret through e-mail. Nobody seems to expect the online world to be the same as the real world.Teens say they also appreciate the ability to edit what they say online, or take the time to think about a response. As cowardly as it may seem, some teens admit that asking someone f or a date, or breaking up, can be easier in message f orm. But they insist there's no harm intended, and cyberspace has become just another medium, like the telephone, in the world of teenagers.6. Why are researchers asking how the futures of teenagers are changed?A. Teens don't know about a life without computers around.B. Teens are becoming more isolated and less skillful.C. Teens can easily get trapped into the e-mail world.D. Teens are spending too much time on the Internet each day.7. Why do teens spend much time on the Internet?A. They have fewer friends to hang out with.B. They don't see their social life strange.C. They think school is too stressful and busy.D. They think talking online can catch up time.8. Which statement illustrates how teens think about the Internet?A. Cyberspace communication is not the real world.B. The Internet enables them to share their odd shorthand terms.C. They enjoy uploading their own information through email.D. Excuses and tricks in emails are normal and tolerable.9. Why has cyberspace become another medium for teens?A. Breaking up with girlfriends or boyfriends is easier.B. Using cyberspace brings them a lot of convenience.C. They can easily edit what they want to say online.D. They feel more comfortable when express ideas by messages.10. What is the major negative effect on teenagers using cyberspace?A. They don't spend time doing homework.B. They don't hand out with their friends.C. They become more isolated and socially awkward.D. They become more cowered in communication.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.When important events are happening around the world, most people turn to traditional media sources, such as CNN and BBC, for their news. However, now people can write diaries and post them on a web site, known as a "blog." Blogs, short for "web-logs," are online diaries, usually kept by individuals, but sometimes by companies and other groups of people. They are the fastest growing type of web site on the Internet.A blog differs from a traditional web site in several ways. Most importantly, it isupdated much more regularly. Many blogs are updated every day, and some are updated several times a day. Also, most blogs use special software or web sites which are specifically aimed at bloggers, so you don't need to be a computer expert to create your own blog. This means that ordinary people who may find computers difficult to use can easily set up and start writing their own blog.There are many different kinds of blogs. The most popular type is an online diary of links, where the blog writer surfs the Internet and then posts links to sites or new articles that they find interesting, with a few comments about each one. Other types are personal diaries, where the writers talk about their life and feelings. Sometimes these blogs can be very personal.There is another kind of blogging, called "moblogging," short for "mobile blogging." Mobloggers use mobile phones with cameras to take photos, which are posted instantly to the Internet. The use of mobile phones in this way made the headlines in Singapore when a high school student posted on the Internet a movie he had taken of a teacher shouting at another student and tearing up the student's homework. Many people were shocked by the student posting a video of the incident on the Internet.As blogs become more common, news reporting will rely less on big media companies and more on ordinary people posting news to the Internet. Possibly, the news will be less like a lecture and more like a conversation, where anyone can join in.11. What is the main idea of this passage?A. The history of the Internet.B. The introduction of new types of media.C. The increase in popularity of computers.D. growing number of people writing diaries.12. To start your own blog, what do you need most?A. Special software.B. An Internet account.C. An interesting point of view.D. Access to the Internet.13. What is the most significant difference between blogs and traditional web sites?A. Blogs are updated much more often.B. Blogs use special software.C. Blogs contain links to other web sites.D. Blogs contain personal information.14. What is "moblogging"?A. Mobile phones that made the headlines in Singapore.B. Use phones to take photos and then post them online.C. Negative news posted on the Internet.D. Pictures posted instantly to the Internet.15. According to the passage, which one is most likely to happen in the future?A. Everyone will have a blog.B. Large media companies will be unnecessary.C. People will learn the news from different points of view.D. Blogging technology will be banned.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog.Have you ever flown? Did you fly to another country to study English? How do you feel about flying? People who have to fly all the time for business usually find it boring. People who fly only once in a while are excited. However, some people feel only terror when they board an airplane. They suffer from a phobia, an illogical fear.If you are afraid of poisonous spiders (有毒蜘蛛), this is logical. If you are afraid ofall spiders, even harmless ones, this is a phobia because it is illogical. Some people have phobias about heights being shut up in a small or large open area. It's not logical to be afraid of these things when there is no danger, but a phobia is not logical.Fear of flying is another phobia. We always hear about a plane crash, but we don't hear about the millions of flights every year that are safe. Riding in a car is thirty times more dangerous than flying, but most of us are not afraid every time we get into a car. It is not logical to be afraid of flying, but research shows that about 12 percent of people have this fear.People with a phobia about flying are afraid for one or more reasons. They are afraid of heights. They avoid high places, and if they are in a high-rise building, they don't look out the windows.They might be afraid of being in an enclosed place like an elevator or a tunnel on a highway. When they get on an airplane, they can't get out until the end of the flight, and the flight might last several hours or even more. Maybe they are afraid of the crowds and all the noise and people rushing around at an airport. This especially bothers older people.Some people are afraid of the unknown. They don't understand the technology of flying and can't believe that a huge airplane can stay up in the air. Though some people are afraid of flying, for many people it's not important because they don't really need to fly.16. ________ usually think flying is boring.A. People who fly once in a whileB. People who fly often on business tripsC. People who have a phobia about flyingD. People who feel terror once they board a plane17.
