Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a（n）___25__question like “How old are you？”.

They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than _27__ that they look very old！Although Westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not _28__ that they are interested to know how old other people are.

In some states only one house in five has people living in it who have been there for more than five years. One may be born in one city, and go to school in another. He may finish his middle school education in two or three cities and attend a college far across the country. And when he has entered business, he may possibly move from job to job. Moving from job to job, or job- hopping, is a very common practice in the United States.This practice is not good by and large. Yet every chance to change a job offers the worker an opportunity to move up to a higher position and to get better wages. And job-hopping also gives employers—the bosses, the managers the—chance to benefit from the new ideas and skills that different people bring to their firms or factories. Then, most Americans love traveling. People often drive their automobiles 120 to 160 kilometers just to have dinner with a friend or even fly to Europe and back just for watching a football match. It is because of this—the fact that Americans are in constant motion and, in this way, it is also easy for you to become friends with Americans. And the friendship can be close and strong for a while, but then disappears as soon as the individuals move away from each other. But if these people should meet again, even years later, they would be delighted to continue the friendship. So don‟t be unhappy when you fail to find lifetime friendships or relationships in the United States.“Job-hopping” means _______.A. moving from place to placeB. looking for workC. hoping to get a jobD. moving from job to jobWhy do Americans change their jobs so frequently? Because _______.A. they have the habits of movingB. they want a higher position and better wagesC. job-hopping benefits the bossesD. it gives them a good opportunity of travelingIt is inferred that _______.A. Americans like to make friends but don‟t specially attach importance to itB. it‟s impossible to find lifetime friendships or r elationships in the United StatesC. Americans ignore friendships and relationships with othersD. Americans make friends just for funPersonally, the author______ job-hopping.A. is againstB. thinks well ofC. wants to stopD. doesn‟t go alo ng withWhat‟s the meaning of “delighted”?______A. happyB. sadC.depressedD. Moving答案：DBABAJohn Smith was lazy. He had finished his education and was happy to sit in his room and listen to the radio all day long. In fact, he had been doing nothing for almost six months, which worried his father a lot. One day Mr Smith decided that he had to do something. “Johnny, When I was your age 1 was working and supporting my ten brothers and sisters. I want you to go out and get a job.” So that was what he did. In fact, in the next three months, Johnny started ten jobs and was fired from ten jobs. He explained to his father.” They wanted me to be at work at 8:00 a. m. and told me to do all sorts of unpleasant things.”“I don‟t care how you do it,” Mr. Smith said. “Either you earn some money or move out of the house. I gave you one week‟s time.”In the next few days Johnny began to change. He still stayed in his room all day, but spent his time writing letters and reading through the newspapers. More and more posts began to arrive for him. He bought a new suit for himself and invited his parents to the theatre and for dinner afterwards at the most expensive restaurant in town. When his proud parents arrived home after their evening hour, a policeman was waiting at the front door.“John Smith,” he said as he banded him a piece of paper, “I‟ll see you in the court tomorrow.”When he got outside, Johnny told his parents everything.“When you told me to earn some money, 1 decided to put an advertis ement in the newspaper saying, …New way to money fast! Send me $ 5 and I‟ll tell you my secret.‟ When I received the money I wrote back telling people to do as I do.”Johnny was fined $ 250 by the court and was ordered to pay all the people back.

How did the parents feel when Johnny invited them to the theatre and dinnerB. What‟s Johnny‟s secretC. What did the policeman want Johnny to doD. How much did Johnny have to pay all the people back答案：DCCADI came to study in the United States a year ago .Yet I did not know the real American society until I was injured in a car accident because after the accident I had to see a doctor and go to court.After the accident .my roommate called a doctor for me. I was very grateful and determined to repay him one day. But the next day, he asked me to pay him $200 for what he had done. I was astonished. He had good reason to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect money from the person who was responsible for my injury, I‟d have to have a good lawyer. And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him.But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215.My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited to collect his money. He was so irresponsible that I decided to dismiss him.

That’s what all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin, who never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not evenown a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? No one could be sure.Herpin died at the age of 94.1.

After watching him closely, the doctors came to believe that Al Herpin .A.needed some kind of sleepB.was too old to need any sleepC.needed no sleep at allD.often slept in a chair4. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was .A.his mother’s injury before he was bornB.that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC.his magnificent physical conditionD.that he hadn’t got a bed5.

Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colors preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up----we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.Colors do influence our moods----there is no doubt about it .A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. A black bridge overthe Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area ----until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.1."You would rather follow than lead" means_______.A. you don't like to follow othersB. you would be a member rather than a leaderC. you would be afraid of following othersD. you would like to be a leader rather than a follower2. If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer________.A. red to yellowB. blue to orangeC. red to greyD. blue to yellow3."They tell us, among other facts, that we don't choose our favorite colors as we grow up." "among other facts" means______.A. besides other factsB. in regard to other factsC. not considering other factsD. according to other facts4. Which of the following is facts?A. People's preference of one color to another is instinctB. People's preference of one color to another is acquired as they grow up.C. More people happen to love brown because they saw something brown when they were bornD. Colors have little influence on our moods5. Those who committed suicide preferred the bridge over the Thames River near London to others because of _______.A. its shapeB. its structureC. its colorD. its building materials2.题干：Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents (洋流). Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment. However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way --- by studying movements of random floating garbage. A scientist with many years’ experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes wa shing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States. There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes — about 60,000 in total — fell into the ocean in a shipping accident. He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the company told him that they didn't. Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment. If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海滩搜寻) because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area. Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed. In a year he collected reliable information on 1, 600 shoes. With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean. He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand. They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.1. The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____.A. fitting roomsB. trading fairsC. business talksD. group meetings2. Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out _______.A. what caused the shipping accidentB. when and where the shoes went missingC. whether it was all right to use their shoesD. how much they lost in the shipping accident3. How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption?A. By collecting information from beachcombers.B. By studying the shoes found by beachcomber.C. By searching the web for ocean currents models.D. By researching ocean currents data in the library.4. Ebbesmeyer is most famous for ________.A. traveling widely the coastal cities of the worldB. making records for any lost objects on the seaC. running a global currents research associationD. phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea5. What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A. To call people's attention to ocean pollution.B. To warn people of shipping safety in the ocean.C. To explain a unique way of studying ocean currents.D. To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach.3.题干：Nearly everyone agrees that money doesn’t buy as much as it used to, no matter where you want to spend it. This is certainly true of the paper money that passes so quickly through one’s hands. Inflation(通货膨胀) eats away at its buying power just as the steady appetite of waves chews at sand cliffs. But what about coins that seem to do very little except clutter(塞满) up purses and pockets? Unlike notes, metal money becomes more valuable the longer it is held, especially if it is put away where is won’t get scratched or worn. Why is this? One reason is that coins, being more durable, fall more readily into a category for collectors. Naturally, the rarer gold pieces must become more valuable as the piece of this metal goes up.But, curiously, one of the rarest coins in the world is not made of gold, but of the relatively cheaper sliver. In 1840, the United States mint(造纸厂) struck 19 570 silver dollars. That is what its records show. Today only six of this original number remain and these are unlikely ever to reach the auction market. So what happened to some 19 564 large silver coins, not the easiest sort of things to lose? One of the more romantic theories is that they were part of the payment to Napoleon for the American territory then known as Louisiana. But they never reached France. Somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico, the ship transporting them was sunk, either by a storm or by pirates(海盗). The probable answer to the mystery is that they were melted down since the silver value was greater than the actual value of the coin. What really happened to the rest will probably always remain a mystery. What is known is that whoever can come up with one will find himself instantly rich.1. It can be inferred from the passage that____.A. money buys as much as it did beforeB. money does not buy as much as it did beforeC. Paper money buys more than metal moneyD. metal money buys more than paper money2. Which of the following is TRUE of a coin?A. The longer it is held, the less valuable it becomes.B. The more it wears out, the more valuable it becomes.C. The less it gets scratched, the less it values.D. The longer it lasts, the more it values.3. According to this passage, one of the rarest coins in the world is made of ____.A. silverB. goldC. copperD. paper4. Coins become more valuable because _____.A. they clutter up purses and pocketsB. the price of metal goes upC. they fall more readily into a category for collectors due to their durationD. both B and C5. What really happened to some 19 564 large silver coins?A. They were melted down.B. They were sunk in the Gulf of Mexico.C. It is still a mysteryD. They were stolen by pirates.4.题干：Most of us lead unhealthy lives; we spend far too much sitting down. If in addition we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become loose and flabby (松弛的) and our systems sluggish (缺乏活力的). There are some aspects of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid.I am thinking of such features of modern urban life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit is a way to minimize the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by the people who are simply watching them.For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sports-and it is especially difficult to do so if you are not good at them-there are such solitary activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leisurely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, apart from the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.Even after you have found a routine for keeping in shape, through sport or gymnastics, you are still only half way to good health, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation. It has to do with deep breathing, emptyingyour mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practiced in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achieving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical, though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity-physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the other-which were the natural way of life of our forefathers.1. Pollution, noise and stress are examples of _____.A .causes of unfitness B. bad features of living in townsC. the things we can completely do away withD. unavoidable things in town2.

A woman drove up to the Rainbow Bridge tollbooth (收费站). “I’m paying for myself, and for the six cars behind me,”she said with a smile, handing over seven tickets. One after another, the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, “Some lady up ahead already paid your fare.”It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend’s refrigerator: “Practice random kindness and sen seless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for days, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down. “I thought it was beautiful,” she said, explaining why she’d taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters, “like a message from above.” Her husband, Frank, liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students, o ne of whom was the da ughter of Alice Johnson, a local news reporter. Alice put it in the newspaper, admitting that though she liked it, she didn’t know where it came from or what it really meant.Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin. It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.“Here’s the idea,” Anne says. “Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting th e classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.”The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later. Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act. Let it be yours!1. Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?A. She knew the car drivers well.B. She wanted to show kindness.C. She hoped to please others.D. She had seven tickets.2. Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she _________.A. thought it was beautifully writtenB. wanted to know what it really meantC. decided to write it on a warehouse wallD. wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom3. Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?A. Judy Foreman.B. Natalie Smith.C. Alice Johnson.D. Anne Herbert.4. Which of the following statements is closest in the meaning to the underlined sentence above?A. Kindness and violence can change the world.B. Kindness and violence can affect one’s behavior.C. Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves.D. Kindness and violence can shape one’s character.5. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. People should practice random kindness to those in need.B. People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C. People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D. People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.6.题干：T he market investigation is indispensable to sales promotion. They are as closely related as the lips and teeth, so to speak. What you produce is for sale on the market. It would be impossible to succeed in selling a product without first investigating the market.In the investigational market, goods on sale coming from different countries and suppliers are always facing keen competition. Under such circumstances, they will try everything possible to familiarize themselves with the market conditions. In making investigations, we ought to get information about what similar items the competitors are offering their regular customers, etc. Then, how can we obtain such information? There are many channels that we can ma ke use of in doing this sort of work. The commercial counselor’s offices of our embassies stationed abroad can help us in making market investigations. Nowadays, our import and export corporations send their trade groups abroad every now and then. One of their purposes is to make market surveys on the spot.Certainly, face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen are also important channels to get market information. The Chinese Export Commodities Fair and some other fairs of similar nature as well as visits of foreign businessmen provide us some opportunities. Of course, there are some other ways of making market investigations.1. In making market investigations, one should______.A. get enough information concernedB. advertise his productsC. produce high quality goodsD. none of above2. The word “indispensable” in the first line means ______.A. impossibleB. essentialC. advisableD. available3. Which of the following statement is NOT true?A. The relationship between market investigation and sales promotion is just as that of the lips and teeth.B. It is impossible to succeed in selling a product without market investigation.C. There are various ways of making market investigation.D. Production goes before market investigation.4. Making market investigation is important because ______.A. in market goods on sale are numerousB. every producer is facing keen competitionC. it can greatly promote salesD. all of the above5. All of the following are channels to get market information EXCEPT______.A. to have commercial counselor’s office of our embassies stationed abroadB. to promote the quality of our own productsC. to send trade groups abroad every now and thenD. to have face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen7.题干：Is there a “success personality”—some winning combination of qualities that leads almost inevitably to achievement? If so, exactly what is that secret success formula, and can anyone develop it?At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, probing the attitudes of 1500 prominent people selected at random from who’s who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of t he most important, that is common sense.Common sense is the most prevailing quality possessed by our respondents. Seventy-nine percent award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61 percent say that common sense was very important in contributing to their success.To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to sweep aside extra ideas and get right to the core of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way: “The key ability for succe ss is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry r educing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important.”Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oil man’s answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He attributes his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from their—and your own—mistakes.Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, you’ll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in who’s who someday.1. It can be known from the passage that who’s who _____.A. is a very useful book telling us how to succeedB. is a book providing us with the information about the family life of some famous peopleC. is a book providing us with the names and brief biographies of the top successful people2. According to the author, common sense _____.A. is something that common people like bestB. is a popular quality a person is born withC. is something that enables one to form correct opinionsD. is a quality that is possessed by common people3. It can be inferred from the passage that a successful businessman _____.A. pays attention to the essence of a problem when he tries to solve itB. tries to get experience through practiceC. keeps on learning in order to be successfulD. has strong willpower, extensive interest and intelligence4. The passage is mainly concerned with _____.A. organizational ability and good work habitsB. the way to obtain big profits and achieve fame and successC. knowledge and interest which are primary to successD. what successful people have in common5. According to the author, how to develop one’s common sens e?A. To learn how to debate and learn from mistakes.B. To become a businessmanC. To become famous.D. To be simplifying.8.题干：The frightening rise in crime of violence throughout the country has caused more and more people to arm themselves. They buy guns to protect their homes and to carry with them for personal safety when traveling. Unfortunately, instead of safety, what the new handgun owner too often gets is personal tragedy. As I found out in my reading, a handgun does not protect the American home very well. The home handgun is far more likely to kill or injure family members and friends than anyone who breaks in, and is especially harmful to young adults and children.Because 90 percent of break-ins take place when no one is home, the handgun bought for defense is very often stolen. According to some statistics, each year about 100,000 handguns are stolen from ordinary citizens. These guns then enter the criminal underworld and are used in more crimes. Thus, the citizen who lost guns is helping to arm the criminal class.As a New York City police officer recently pointed out to a homeowner who asked if he should buy a handgun to protect his home, too often it is the homeowner himself who ends up getting shot and killed, because he most often warns the robber by saying something like “Stop!” or “What do you think you’re doing?” Possibly, the thief turns and fires.In street crime, the use of a handgun for defense is very risky, with the defender often losing the gun and having it used against him. The handgun owner seldom even gets the chance to use his or her gun because the moment of surprise is always with the attacker. In fact, trying to use a handgun to keep someone off makes the risk of death quite a bit higher.For the ordinary citizen, using a handgun is seldom helpful for defense on the street. And, in the home, the only way to get real defense from a personal handgun would be to have it always at the ready, perhaps in hand loaded and ready to fire every time there is a knock on the door. That is not exactly the American way or my idea of a civilized society.1.Why do people arm themselves according to the passage?A. Because they want to use guns to protect their personal goods.B. Because killing animals with guns is their favorite sport.C. Because the number of crimes of violence is still small.D. Because people intend to attack others with guns in crimes.2.More often than not, what the handgun brings its owner is .A. safetyB. tragedyC. luckD. happiness。

You should decide on the best choice.Passage 1Once a rich man was giving a great dinner. He had got every kind of food that he required except fish,which happened to be hard to get, for the weather had been too stormy for fisherman to go out to seas.On the very morning of the dinner, however, a fisherman appeared at the rich man’s house with a fine turbot (比目鱼) for sale. The fish was gladly accepted, and the fisherman was asked to name his price.“One hundred lashes (鞭子), sir, and nothing less,” was the strange answer. “And these lashes must be laid on my bare back.”As the fisherman could not be persuaded to take money instead of whipping, the lashes were laid. After he had received fifty lashes out of the hundred, he cried out, “Stop! I have had my share. I have a partner in this business, and it is right that the remaining fifty should be given to him.”“What!” said the rich man. “Is th ere another such madman in the world? Call him in, and let us see him.”“You need not go far, sir, ” said the fisherman. “He is your own porter. He would not let me pass until I promised that he should have half of the price to be paid for my fish.”“Call him in,” said the rich man angrily. “He shall have his fifty lashes.”The fifty lashes given, the porter was dismissed and the fisherman was paid for his fish.11. The rich man was hard to get fish because _______.A. he did not really need any fishB. of the bad weather the fishermen couldn’t go out to seasC. the fishermen did not want to give fish to himD. the fish were in deep seas12. The fisherman reached the rich man’s house _______.A. when all the guests had comeB. just as the dinner was being cookedC. after the dinner was readyD. just on time13. Why did the fisherman ask for 100 lashes for his fish?A. Because he did not need any money.B. Because he was foolish and mad.C. Because he wanted to whip the porter himself.D. Because he wanted the porter to be also whipped.14. The porter would not have been whipped if ____.A. he had treated the fisherman as a guestB. he had asked for less moneyC. he had let the fisherman pass without asking for anythingD. the fisherman had agreed to his requirement15. Which statement is true?A. The porter was dismissed but got half of the money.B. The porter got neither money nor punishment.C. The fisherman received the money but was given the remaining fifty lashes.D. Either the fisherman or the porter was satisfied with eresult of the matter.Passage 2The Atlantic Ocean is one of oceans that separate the Old World from the New. For centuries it kept the Americans from being discovered by the people of Europe.Many wrong ideas about the Atlantic made early sailors unwilling to sail far out into it. One idea was that it reached out to “the edge of the world”. Sailors were afraid that they might sail right off the earth. Another idea was that at the equator the ocean would be boiling hot.The Atlantic Ocean is only half as big as the Pacific, but it is still very large. It is more than 4,000 miles (6,400 km) wide where Columbus crossed it. Even at its narrowest spot it is about 2,000 miles (3,200 km) wide. This narrowest place is between South America and Africa.Two things make the Atlantic Ocean rather unusual. For so large an ocean it has very few islands. Also, it is the world’s saltiest ocean.There is so much water in the Atlantic that it is hard to imagine how much there is. But suppose no more rain fell into it and no more water was brought to it by rivers, it would take the ocean about 4,000 years to dry up. On the average the water is a little more than two miles (3.2 km) deep, but in places it is much deeper. The deepest spot is near Puerto Rico (波多黎各). This “deep” measures 30,246 feet ——almost six miles (9.6 km).16. In the first sentence “the New” refers to _______.A. AsiaB. AfricaC. AmericaD. Australia17. Why were the early sailors unwilling to sail far out into the Atlantic?A. Because the y thought they would reach out to “the edge of the world”.B. Because they thought it was too large and deep.C. Because they thought it would be too hot at the equator.D. Both A and C.18. Which statement is true?A. The Atlantic Ocean has more salt than water in it.B. The water of the Atlantic Ocean is saltier than that of any other places in the world.C. The water of the Atlantic Ocean is saltier than that of the Pacific Ocean.D. There is less salt in the Pacific Ocean than in any other places of the world.19. Point out the correct statement.A. The Atlantic has more water.B. The Atlantic has more islands.C. The Atlantic is smaller but saltier.D. The Atlantic is smaller but deeper.20. The best title for the passage is _______.A. The Water of the AtlanticB. The Atlantic OceanC. The Saltiest Ocean in the WorldD. The Atlantic ——a Lovely OceanPassage 3In the sea there are many islands. In its warm waters there are some little ones. We call them “Coral Islands”.A coral island is very nice to look at. It looks like a ring of land with trees, grass, and flowers on it. One part of the ring is opento the water. There is a little round lake inside the island.If you look into this lake, you will see beautiful coral. You may think they are flowers.If you look at a piece of coral, you will see many little holes in it. In each of these holes a very small sea animal has lived. These sea animals make the coral.They began to build under the water. Year after year, the coral grew higher and higher. At last it grew out of the water.Then the sea brought water to small trees and something else. After some years, these things changed into earth. Sometimes the wind brought seeds to earth. Sometimes birds flew over it and brought seeds to the island.The little seeds grew. In a few years there were plants all over the island. In a few more years there were trees growing there.So you see, these islands were built little by little. The workers we re very small. Don’t they teach us a lesson? Can you think out what the lesson is?21. In the sea _______.A. there are coral islands in all placesB. the water is always warmC. there are some coral islandsD. we can see many flowers22. A coral island looks like _______.A. a round cakeB. trees, grass and flowersC. a round lakeD. a ring of land23. There are in the holes in corals.A. sea animalsB. little coralsC. grassD. followers24. How did seeds of trees, grass and flowers come to the coral islands?A. Only the wind brought them thereB. The wind and birds brought them to the coral islandsC. People brought them thereD. Fishes brought them there25. From the story we learn that _______.A. small workers can’s do big thingsB. only big workers can do big thingsC. all small things can do big things.D. small workers can do big things if they work hard and work a long timePassage 4There was a time when wearing jeans would catch eyes, but now when walking in the streets, you expect to meet people in most colorful and daring clothes from T-shirts to blue jeans.Twenty years ago China was referred to “as a clothing desert” in the foreign press, bu t when Pierre Cardin, the famous French King of Clothing, came to Beijing in 1991, he was reported to be so “surprised and happy” to see Cardin’s clothing in Beijing’s shopping windows that he decided to have a series of Cardin’s women’s clothing stores opened in China within the next five years.The quick changes in clothing, in fact, surprised the Chinese people themselves, too. A young girl from the countryside says she just “can’t believe” that she can be in such smart clothes. But when the time has rea lly come, the Chinese people, men and women, old and young, are not shy of dressing themselves up.Today in China, clothing is believe to be something not only protecting people from the cold but showing their living conditions and their sense of beauty as well.26. At present it is _______ for the Chinese to wear most colorful and daring clothes.A. commonB. strangeC. rareD. unusual27. China was once referred to as “a clothing desert” because the Chinese _______.A. were short of sense of beautyB. did not have enough money to get enough clothesC. were all wearing the same simple clothing which wasn’t pleasant to look atD. used to wear clothes which were the same color as the desert28. To Cardin’s surprise and joy, he saw _______ in Beijing’s shopping windows.A. his own clothingB. clothing designed by himselfC. clothing made by himselfD. clothing he had bought a few days before29. The quick changes in clothing have surprised _______.A. The Chinese themselvesB. The whole worldC. Pierre CardinD. All the foreigners30. The Chinese are caring more about clothing than ever because _______.A. clothing protects them from the coldB. clothing shows their living conditionsC. clothing shows their sense of beautyD. their life has greatly improvedPassage 5Butterflies are common all over the world but the ones in hot countries are usually bigger and more brightly colored than those in cooler countries, and there are more different kinds. Usually the male butterfly is more brightly colored than the female. The females have bigger and heavier bodies, since they carry the eggs. The gay colors of the male help to attract the female and the duller (暗淡的) colors of the female make them less likely to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs.Some butterflies have a bright pattern of colors on the upper surface of their wings which show when they fly, but when they rest on a tree or leaf, they close their wings. On the undersides of their wings there are green and brown markings which look like the tree or leaves. They are then difficult to see. The best example of this is the Dead Leaf Butterfly. When its wings are closed, it looks exactly like a dead leaf. There are even marks that look like the holes in a dead leaf. When a bird is chasing a butterfly, and it closes its wings, it seems to have disappeared completely.Many butterflies have round marks on their wings that look like eyes. When they are resting, and their wings are folded, these cannot be seen. When a bird sees one, and begins to attack it, the butterfly opens its wings. The bird thinks that it sees two eyes staring at it, and frightened, it flies away.31. Which of the following is likely to be the most brightly colored?A. A male in a hot countryB. B.

But the student answered, “No, no. My English is very poor.” The foreigner wasquite surprised at the answ er. Thinking he had not made himself understood or the student had not heard him clearly, he said, “Yes, indeed, you speak English very well.” But the Chinese student still kept saying “No.” In the end the foreigner gave up and was at a loss what to say. W hat’s wrong with the student’s answer? It is because he did not accept a compliment as the English people do. He should have said “Thank you” instead of “No”. He actually understood what the American had said. But he thought he should be modest. If he sai d “Thank you”, that would mean he was too proud. According to the western culture, if someone says the dishes you have cooked are very delicious, you should say “Thank you”. If someone says to a woman “You look so beautiful with the new clothes on”, she sh ould be very happy and answer “Thank you.” In our country we think being modest is a virtue and showing off a bad thing. But in the west, if you are modest and say “No, I am afraid I cannot do it well”, then the others will take it for granted that you rea lly cannot do it. If you often say “no”, you will certainly be looked down upon by others. If asking for a job, one says something like “Let me have a try on the job” instead of “Yes, I can certainly do it”, he or she will never expect to get it. So in the west one should always be confident. Without self-confidence, he cannot go anywhere. Confidence is of great importance to one in a country where competition is quite keen.36.The foreigner was surprised at the Chinese student’s answer. Why?A. Because he did not catch what the student had said.B. Because he disliked saying “No.”C. Because he could not hear clearly what the student had said.D. Because it is the different way to accept a compliment between China and the western countries.37.The foreigner _______ as the student kept saying “No”.A. A.was puzzled with the answerB. B.because upsetC. C.could not continue the conversation with himD. D.lost confidence38.According to the western culture, if one is given a compliment, he or she should say:A. Not at all.B. Excuse me.C. Pardon.D. Thank you.39.While asking for a job, the westerner often says “I can certainly do it.” Why?A. Because he is proud.B. Because he gives an impression that he is just the man for the job.C. Because he can do nothing but speak that way.D. Because he wants to have a try on the job.40.“The foreigner was at a loss what to say. ” means “The foreigner ________.”A. did not know what to sayB. lost ability to sayC. did not want to sayD. had no patience to sayPassage 7There was a pilot and four people in a small plane. Suddenly there was something wrong with the machine while it was flying in the air. The smoke was everywhere in the plane. The pilot toldthe people there were only four parachutes.

There was nothing he could do so he jumped out.The first person stood up. “I’m a doctor”, he said. “1 help people live longer and I save lives.” He also took a parachute and jumped out.The second person stood up. “I mush have a parachute. I’m a very clever person. I have to attend an important sports match. I know I’ll win the game because I’ll be the cleverest person there.” He picked up a pack and jumped out.Two men were left ——an old businessman and a young mountain climber. By this time the plane was going down fast. The businessman said, “Young man, I’m old but you’re still young. You take the last parachute.” The young mountain climb er smiled. “Don’t worry,” he said, “we can both jump to safety because there are still two parachutes. Just now the clever person jumped out with my back pack.”41.

Reading ComprehensionPassage 1In the United States there was an unusual tale telling of the daughter of a mechanic. One day while walking along the bank of a lake, the girl happened to see 20 eggs laid by a wild goose. After some time the girl realized the mother would not return to her eggs and she decided to take them home. There she carefully placed the eggs in the heat of a lamp. Several days later the eggs broke and the baby geese came into the world.Geese are known to take the first living thing they see as their mother. Thus, to these young geese, the girl was their mother.As they grew, the girl was able to lead her birds to run across the grass, but she could not teach them to fly. The girl became increasingly worried about this, both when awake and in her dreams. Later, she had an idea. She would pilot a plane to guide them in flight. She asked her father for a plane and he assembled small aircraft for her.Caring about her safety, the father decided to pilot the plane himself. However, the birds did not recognize or follow him, and instead slept in the grass.One day, the girl climbed into the plane, started it and soon left the ground. Seeing their mother take to theair, the birds eagerly flapped their wings and set out. She flew the plane freely in the sky, her young birds following.1.

There are 6.5 billion people in the world but no other person is exactly like you. Besides people, there are millions of other living things. Every living thing is different from each other. Every living thing is a unique combination of characteristics.Why is each living thing unique? Where do its characteristics come from? Do people receive characteristics from their mothers and fathers? How? The work of Gregor Mendel was especially important to help us to answer these questions.Mendel studied plants, especially pea plants. In some way they were all the same. For example, they all had flowers. But some had red flowers, and others had white flowers. Some were tall, others were short. Mendel was especially interested in the differences. He wondered why each plant was of certain color, shape, size. He experimented with thousands of pea plants, with a careful record. And he discovered some interesting things. He mated different pea plants. First, he mated a red flower plant with a white flower plant. All of the offspring plants had red flowers. Mendel was curious about what happened to the white. Then he mated two of the offspring plants. Every time he did this, they produced three red plants and one white plant. There was the white again. So Mendel knew that even red plants somehow passed on whiteness. Mendel decided that pea plants carried factors, and the parents passed these factors onto their offspring.Today we call these factors genes. Genes are tiny pieces of matter. They carry information from parents to offspring. Now we know that every person is unique and one reason for this is that every person is a unique combination of genes.6. In the first paragraph, the author mainly tells us that_______C______.A. no other person is exactly like youB. the total population of the world is 6.5 billionC. every living thing is uniqueD. different people have different characters7. The work of Gregor Mendel was especially important because___D__________.A. he had first set great value on pea plantsB. he was the first person to study pea plantsC. he had done a lot of experiments with thousands of pea plantsD. he had first discovered what we call genes today8. Gregor Mendel made a special study of plant because______C__________.A. few biologists were interested in studying pea plants at that timeB. he liked pea plant flowersC. he wanted to find out why pea plants differed in shape, color and sizeD. pea plants were all the same in some ways9. By experiments Gregor Mendel proved_________B________.A. pea plants of different colors could not mateB. pea plants possessed factors which could be passed onto the youngC. only redness could be passed onto the offspring if a red pea plant mated with a white oneD. pea plants had only two colors — red and white10. Which of the following statements is true?______A_____.A. Every person is unique because he is a unique combination of genesB. Genes only exist in plants, not in animalsC. Although there are a large number of different people in the world, there are some who look exactly alikeD. Some biologists after Gregor Mendel discovered that genes cannot determine the color of one’s eyes Passage 3Versailles is the site of the Palace of Versailles, one of the most storied buildings in the history of France.

Many American colleges and universities have been offering it for years.One example is New York University in Manhattan. The School of Continuing and Professional Studies began online classes in nineteen ninety-two. Its Virtual College has taught more than ten thousand students from across the United States and other countries.Last year, the School of Continuing and Professional Studies launched NYU Online. It offers NYU’s first online programs to earn a bachelor’s degree. Programs are offered in three areas: leadership and management, information systems management and social sciences. University officials say classes are highly interactive, where students communicate with each other and their teachers. Some classes require students to all log in at the same time so they can attend live lectures by a professor. Students can also ask questions and work together on team projects. The university says classes are taught by NYU professors who have been trained in online teaching.International students must take two admissions tests before they can be accepted into the program. These are the SAT and the TOEFL. We will discuss these tests later in our series.The cost to attend NYU Online depends on how many classes a student takes. It can cost as much as fifteen thousand dollars a year. NYU offers no financial aid for international students in this program. You can get more details at .16.

When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel cool. Why? The sun makes the earth hot, but it cannot make the water very hot. Although the air over the earth becomes hot, the air over the water stays cool. The hot air over the earth rises. Then the cool air over the water moves in and takes the place of the hot air. When you are near a lake or an ocean, you feel the cool air when it moves in. You feel the wind. And the wind makes you cool.Of course, scientists cannot answer all of our questions. I f we ask, “Why is the ocean full of salt?” scientists will say that the salt comes from rocks. When a rock gets very hot or very cold, it cracks. Rain falls into the cracks. The rain then carries the salt into the earth and into the rivers. The rivers carry the salt into the ocean. But then we ask, “What happens to the salt in the ocean? The ocean does not get more salty every year.” Scientists are notsure about the answer to this question.We know a lot about our world, but there are still many answers that we do not have, and we are curious about them.21. The main idea of the passage is that ___C___ .A. people feel cool when they are near a lake or an oceanB. scientists can explain everything we want to knowC. scientists can explain many things but not everythingD. the salt in the ocean comes from rocks22. You feel cool when you are near a lake or an ocean because __D____ .A. the water is coldB. the earth is hotC. the water is colder than the earthD. the cool air from the water moves towards the land23. Now scientists know ____A__ .A. what makes people feel cool near a lake or an ocean in summerB. everything about the oceanC. why the ocean does not get more saltyD. what happens to the salt in the ocean24. A rock cracks when ____D__ .A. rain fallsB. it gets very hotC. it gets very coldD. either B or C25.

级本科《⼤学英语》复习资料附答案⼤学英语复习资料注意事项：考试时请看清楚题⽬再作答，谢谢习题1Part One: Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked ABCD. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Advertisement can be thought of “as the means of making known in order to but or sell goods or services”. Advertisement aims to increase people’s awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message. The press offers a fairly cheap method, and magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Public notices are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertisement.There can be no doubt that the growth in advertisement is one of the most striking features of the western world in this century. Many businesses such as those handling frozen foods, liquor, tobacco and medicines have been built up largely by advertisement. We might ask whether the cost of advertisement is paid for by the producer or by the customer. Since advertisement forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is clear that it is the customer who pays for the advertisement. However, if large-scale advertisement leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customer pays less. It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertisement on sales. When the market is growing, advertisement helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertisement may prevent a bigger fall in sales than would occur without its support. What is clear is that business would not pay large sums for advertisement if they were not convinced of its value to them.1.Advertisement is often used to ____B__ .A. cheat customersB. arouse interestC. increase productionD. push the sale2. The word “media” (in the 1st para.) includes ____D____.A. radioB. televisionC. the pressD. all of the above3. Advertisement is mainly paid for by ___C____.A. reduced pricesB. increased salesC. the customerD. the producer4. Advertisement can increase demand ___B____.C. in any circumstancesD. in a shrinking market5. From the last sentence of this passage we conclude that ____A___.A. advertisement usually cost businesses large amounts of moneyB. advertisement could hardly convince people of the value of the goodsC. businesses know well that advertisement could bring profitsD. businesses usually do not pay much for advertisementMan has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the 16th century he made designs for machines that would fry, but they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone in his body.The first real step took place in France, in 1783. two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large “hot airballoon”. They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about.6. Leonardo Da Vinci CA. said that man would fly in the sky one dayB. built a kind of machine which never flewC. made designs for flying machinesD. drew many beautiful pictures of birds7. Eight hundred years ago an Englishman BA. made a kind of flying machineB. tried to fly with wings made of chicken feathersC. wanted to build a kind of balloonD. tried to fly on a large bird8. In fact, the Englishman who tried to fly __B_____A. got badly woundedB. succeeded in flyingC. lost his lifeD. flew only 8 minutes9. The very first air passengers in the balloon were AA. two animalsB. the Montgolfiers10. When did two Frenchmen rise above Paris? AA. In December 1783B. In September 1783C. In the 17th centuryD. In November 1783Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable. Scientists and experts have proved uniqueness of finger prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.The structure on a person’s fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by superficial injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced on time by new one which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed. Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own fingerprints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.Fingerprints can be made easily with printer’s ink. They can be recorded easily. With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time. Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, fingerprints have often been used as a method of solving criminal cases. A suspected man denies a charge, but his finger prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.When a suspect leaves fingerprints behind at the scene of crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Special techniques are used to “develop” them. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible of a print in the size of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained11. In this passage, the writer states that _____C___A. the shape of one’s hands differs from that of other’sB. the patterns of one’s skin are passed on from their parentsC. what caused the uniqueness of the finger prints remains unknownD. scientists have discovered a few unusual cases of finger prints12. According to this passage, if one’s finger gets wounded in the outer skin __B_____A. the pattern of the finger skin will be replaced by a new oneB. fingerprints will be the same when their wound is recoveredC. the arrangement of the finger skin will be totally destroyedD. the pattern of the finger skin will be changed partly13. Some criminals removed their own fingerprints by ____A___A. injuring the inner skin of their fingersB. replacing them with those of others’C. damaging the outer skin of their fingersD. using a kind of printer’s ink14. Fingerprints are often used as a method of solving criminal case because ___B___A. they can be obtained whenever they are neededB. they can outline a criminal’s appearanceC. this method is simple though costingA. delay doingB. refuse to acceptC. admitD. doubtThe clock struck eleven at night. The whole house was quiet. Everyone was in bed except me. Under the strong light, I looked sadly before me at a huge pile of that troublesome stuff they call “books”.I was going to have my examination the next day. “When can I go to bed?” I asked myself. I did n’t answer, in fact I dared not. The clock struck twelve. “Oh, dear! ” I cried. “Ten more books to read before I can go to bed!” We pupils are the most wretched creatures in the world. Dad does not agree with me on this. He did not have to work so hard when he was a boy. The clock struck one. I was quite desperate now. I forgot all I had learned. I was too tired to go on. I did the only thing I could. I prayed, “Oh, God, please help me pass the exam tomorrow. I do promise to work hard afterwards, Amen.”My eyes were so heavy that I could hardly open them a few minutes later, with my head on the desk, I fell asleep.16.

He must obtain data both on the resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.If an economist were asked which of three groups borrow most—people with rising incomes, stable incomes, or decreasing incomes—he would probably answer, those with decreasing incomes. Actually years 1947—1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes.People with decreasing incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions about earning and spending are not always reliable. Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up they will hasten to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The expectations of price increases may not stimulate buying. One typical attitude was expressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices. “In a few months,” she said, “we’ll have to pay more for meat and milk; we’ll have less to spend on other things.” Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. Furthermore, the rise that has already taken place may be disliked and buyer’s resistance may be produced. This is shown by the following typical comment: “I just don’t pay these prices; they are too high.”The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America; condition most helpful to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology.1.According to the passage, if one wants to predict the way people spend their money, he should ___C___ .A. rely on traditional assumptions about earning and spendingB. try to encourage or discourage consumers to spend moneyC. carry out investigations on consumer behavior and get data on consumers incomes and money spending motivesD. do researches in consumer psychology in a laboratory.2. According to Paragraph 2, one traditional assumption is that people with _____C___ incomes borrow mostA. averageB. stableC. decreasingD. rising3. According to Paragraph 4, research surveys have proved that __B_____.A. price increases always stimulate people to hasten to buy thingsB. rising prices may make people put off their purchase of certain thingsC. women are more sensitive to the rising in prices than menD. the expectations of price increases often make buyers feel angry4. From the results of the surveys, the writer of this article ___C____.A. concludes that the saving and spending patterns in Great Britain are better than those in AmericaB. conclude that the consumers always expect prices to remain stableC. concludes that maintaining stable prices is a correct business policyD. does not draw any conclusionA. Consumers will put off buying things if they expect prices to decrease.B. Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect prices to increaseC. The price condition has an influence on consumer behaviorD. Traditional assumptions about earning and spending are reliable.Mass media, the tools of communication, can be divided into two groups: print media and electronic media. By print media, we mean books, newspapers and magazines. Electronic media include television, computer, radio and movie. Mass media allow us to record and pass information rapidly to a large, scattered audience. Theyextend our ability to talk to each other by helping us overcome barriers caused by time and space.Mass media make daily life easier for us in various ways. Firstly, they help us keep a watch on our world. They gather and pass on information we would be unlikely or unable to obtain on our own.Secondly, mass media help us arrange our time and life. What we talk about and what we think about are greatly influenced by the media. When people get together they tend to talk about certain happenings in newspapers or on TV. Because we are exposed to different points of views through different kinds of media every day, we are able to evaluate all sides of a certain issue.Thirdly, the media are used to persuade people. Newspapers, magazines and TV are filled with all kinds of colorful, persuasive advertisements. Though many advertisements may not say openly that they want you to buy a certain product, they describe their products in such a way that you may want to buy them.Fourthly, the media also entertain. All media make efforts to entertain their audience. For instance, even though the newspaper is a prime medium of information, it also contains entertainment features. Television, motion pictures, some radio stations and magazines are devoted mainly to entertainment. It is estimated that in the future, the entertainment function of mass media will become even more important than it is now.6. What makes it possible for people living in different places to communicate with each other? ( B )A. printed mediaB. mass mediaC. electronic mediaD. computers7. Which of the following functions of mass media is NOT mentioned? ( D )A. to make people well informed about the worldB. to amuse and entertain peopleC. to help people arrange their time and lifeD. to give people a sense of humor.8. Certain matters in newspapers or on V tend to be talked about when people get together because __B_____A. people are curious about themB. people are influenced by those mass mediaC. it is fashionable for people to soD. it is easy for people to communicate in this way9. How does advertisement make people purchase certain goods according to the passage? ( A )A. by giving an attractive account of the goods.D. by giving people something extra10. Which of the following media is mainly devoted to information according to the passage? ( D )A. TVB. MagazineC. Motion pictureD. NewspapersEvery human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable. Scientists and experts have proved uniqueness of finger prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.The structure on a person’s fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by superficial injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced on time by new one which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed. Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own fingerprints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.Fingerprints can be made easily with printer’s ink. They can be recorded easily. With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time. Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, fingerprints have often been used as a method of solving criminal cases. A suspected man denies a charge, but his finger prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.When a suspect leaves fingerprints behind at the scene of crime, they are difficult to detect with the nakedeye. Special techniques are used to “develop” them. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible ofa print in the size of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained11. In this passage, the writer states that ____D____A. the shape of one’s hands differs from that of other’sB. the patterns of one’s skin are passed on from their parentsC. what caused the uniqueness of the finger prints remains unknownD. scientists have discovered a few unusual cases of finger prints12. According to this passage, if one’s finger gets wounded in the outer skin ____B___A. the pattern of the finger skin will be replaced by a new oneB. fingerprints will be the same when their wound is recoveredC. the arrangement of the finger skin will be totally destroyedD. the pattern of the finger skin will be changed partly13. Some criminals removed their own fingerprints by ___A____A. injuring the inner skin of their fingersB. replacing them with those of others’C. damaging the outer skin of their fingersD. using a kind of printer’s ink14. Fingerprints are often used as a method of solving criminal case because ___D___A. they can be obtained whenever they are neededB. they can outline a criminal’s appearanceC. this method is simple though costingD. this method is easy and inexpensive15. The word “deny” (line 5, para 3) most probably means ____B__A. delay doingB. refuse to acceptC. admitD. doubt4Greek soldiers sent messages by turning their shields toward the sun. the flashes reflected light could be seen several miles away. The enemy did not know what the flashes meant, but other Greek soldiers could understand the messages.Roman soldiers in some places built long rows of signal towers. When they had a message to send, the soldiers shouted it from tower to tower. If there were enough towers and enough soldiers with loud voices, important news could be sent quickly over distance.In Africa, people learned to send messages by beating on a series of large drums. Each drum was kept within hearing distance of the next one. The drum beats were sent out in a special way that all the drummers understood. Though the messages were simple, they could be sent at great speed for hundreds of miles.In the eighteenth century, a French engineer found a new way to send short messages. In this way, a person held a flag in each hand and the arms were moved to various positions representing different letters of the alphabet. It was like spelling out words with flags and arms.Over a long period of time, people sent messages by all these different ways. However, not until the telephone was invented in America in the nineteenth century could people send speech sounds over a great distance in just a few seconds.16. According to this passage, the Roman way of communication depended very much upon ___B___A. fine weatherB. high towerC. the spelling systemD. arm movements17. Which of the following statements is true? ___D____A. Neither the Greek soldiers nor their enemy could understand the messagesB. African soldiers shouted from tower to tower to pass message.C.

I did a course in acupuncture and shiatsu massage. I took four years to get qualified but now I have set up my own business.

In the evening, we will go to the Bairro Alto area for dinner and to hear the wonderfully melancholy fado music. SATURDAY 20th JuneA day of contrasts. In the morning, a trip to the oldest neighbourhood, Alfama. Its little cobbled streets arecharming but it is also one of the poorest parts of the city.

In the evening, you are free to enjoy whatever part of the city you wish.SUNDAY 21st JuneA coach will take us out of the city to visit Sintra, summer residence of the kings of Portugal. Here, we will see the breathtaking Palácio Nacional and walk around Sintra’s beautiful woods and parks. On our way back, we will stop at Cascais, just half an hour from the capital.

A cup of cocoa before going to bed or a Mars bar on the bus – the British are obsessed with it. The average Briton eats 10kg of chocolate a year. Women eat far more chocolate than men, an amazing 67% of total chocolate consumption. And the most popular snack is KitKat – fifty are eaten every second in the UK.Chocoholics are people with a chocolate obsession. But are they addicts? Not according to recent research. This shows that chocolate is not as addictive as coffee – in fact，there is no proof that chocolate creates addiction at all. And it’s a lot better for you than we thought. Some scientists say that it releases the same chemicals that your body produces when you are in love. Now that can’t be a bad thing!Some more good news –it doesn’t raise your cholesterol level or give you acne, as people believe, and it can even be good for your teeth! It does, however, contain caffeine and is bad if you get headaches. So the least sensible time to eat it is at night.The British lo ve chocolate but they are not as obsessed as the Swiss. The Swiss are officially the world’ greatest chocolate eaters – but then Swiss chocolate is the best!1Women buy less chocolate than men.2There is evidence that chocolate is addictive.3Chocolate contains caffeine.4You should avoid chocolate if you suffer from migraines.5The world’s greatest chocolate eaters are the British.Key: FFTTF5.From: U8L3 P121Found Safe and SoundThe monkey who escaped from Bristol Zoo last weekend was discovered by school children yesterday. Police say that the animal, who was found in a school playground, was fine but a little hungry. The zoo admitted that it needed to improve its security.Discovered…Naked and DrunkHollywood resident Helen Hicks was stopped by police early on Sunday morning after dancing around her neighbourhood with no clothes on. Hicks has drunk half a bottle of vodka after an argument with her rock guitarist boyfriend Johnny Hedges. A friend says that Ms Hicks was suffering depression.HospitalisedLion tamer Sergei Ivanov was seriously injured by his lion, Sheba, during last night’s performance of the Moscow Circus. Ivanov has worked in the circus for over 25 years. He was taken to Springfields General Hospital last night. Doctors say that he is lucky to be alive.Caught on CameraSuper-rich male model Justin Orlando’s love affair with British pop singer Ross Curtis was exposed this week. Thetwo men were photographed together in a London restaurant. Orlando, who has never tried to hide his sexuality, said that he was very happy with his new partner.1 The monkey was found by school children.2 The zoo said they were responsible for the monkey’s escape.3 Helen took her clothes off as a joke.4 Sergei hadn’t had much experience with animals.5 Justin wanted to hide his sexuality.Key: TTFFF6.From: U9L1 P132Digital NativesDavid is not very comfortable with new technology and he does not have many gadgets. Lucy loves new technology. She owns a games console, an MP3 player, and a mobile phone with a built-in digital camera. David is a teacher. Lucy is his student.Like Lucy, many children grow up using computers almost every day and often know more about technology than adults. Educator Marc Prensky calls children like Lucy “digital natives”. Digital natives can quickly learn how to use new gadgets and new software, while non-digital natives spend a lot of time reading manuals and worrying about computer viruses. In fact, many parents try to save time by asking their children to teach them how to use new technology!The divide between digital natives and non-digital natives can cause problems at school because students and teachers grow up with very different ideas about technology. Many teachers think that playing computer games is a waste of time and that technology has made children unable to concentrate. However, many students think their classes are slow and boring, and want to use computers to study.Prensky believes that digital natives have learned a lot from technology, but that they learn things in a different way. For example, reading a website is different from reading a book, so digital natives are good at finding the information they need and choosing what they want to read. So perhaps teachers need to change the way they teach and use more technology in class – because the number of digital natives will keep increasing!1 David is a digital native.2 Marc Prensky is interested in teaching with technology.3 Digital natives are comfortable using laptops and flash drives.4 Many teachers think computer games are only for having fun or killing time.5 People read books and websites in the same way.Key: FTTTF7.From: U10L2 P153SpanglishIn which city can you read signs like “Aparca your car aquí” or “Cuidado con los pickpockets”? Travelguide investigates.1.2 million Hispanics live in the Big Apple and one in five New Yorkers speaks Spanish at home. In the last ten years, the Hispanic population has grown by 400 000. This reflects the enormous increase in the Hispanic population in the States. There are now 42 million Hispanics resident in the USA, representing 15% of the total population.There is a new language, SPANGLISH – a strange mixture of Spanish and English – which is invading the city. The New York Times recently said that it had become the city’s third official language. Its use is colloquial and often limited to short sentences and signs. Many New Yorkers now wear socketines on their feet, drop something on the carpeta, shop for grocerias and have cornfley(“cornflakes”) for breakfast.Norma Rodríguez, a 45-year-old Cuban living in Washington Heights, says it forms a part of her life now: “Sometimes, you don’t realize that you’re mixing the two languages. You just hear them both all the time and find that you’re inventing new words.” Other people, however, are fighting against this new street language. Bu sinessman Juan Cortés sees it as a sign that the Spanish language is being destroyed. “It’s difficult, but I try not to speak it –it feels vulgar to me.”Meanwhile, a surprising number of academics have spoken in favour of Spanglish.
