It cannot be 1 unless the current situation which China has Four Highs and One Low is changed. The Four Highs and the One Low means a high infection rate, a high drug 2 rate, a high death rate, a high__3 of infection, and a low rate of decline changes.Experts say that China is one of the twenty-two countries in the world with the highest tuberculosis 4 China ranks second in the world in the 5 number of the people who have TB. Over 500 million Chinese have been 6 to the TB bacillus, six million have active TB and two million are 7 carriers of the disease. Over two hundred and fifty thousand Chinese die each year from TB. This is twice as many as those who die 8 all of China' s other contagious diseases 9 The rate of TB in the Chinese countryside is 2.4 times 10 in the city. In China, as in other countries, at lease half of the 11 active TB cases, and deaths are in women.Children are the most 12 to infection of all. 13 statistics, the TB death rate among children aged 0-4 are 0.8 per 100,000 and 0.5 per 100,000.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are some choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer SheetQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.The decline of traditional religion in the West has not removed the need for men and women to find a deeper meaningbehind existence. Why is the world the way it is and how do we, as conscious individuals, fit into the great scheme?There is a growing feeling that science, especially what is known as the new physics, can provide answers where religion remains vague and faltering. Many people in search of a meaning to their lives are finding enlightenment in the revolutionary developments at the frontiers of science. Much to the bewilderment of professional scientists, quasi-religious cults are being formed around such unlikely topics as quantum physics, space-time relativity, black holes and the big bang.How can physics, with its reputation for cold precision and objective materialism, provide such fertile soil for the mystical? The truth is that the spirit of scientific inquiry has undergone a remarkable transformation over the past 50 years. The twin revolutions of the theory of relativity, with its space-warps and time-warps, and the quantum theory, which reveals the shadowy and unsubstantial nature of atoms, have demolished the classical image of a clockwork universe slavishly unfolding along a predetermined pathway. Replacing this sterile mechanism is a world full of shifting indeterminism and subtle interactions that have no counterpart in daily experience, To study the new physics is to embark on a journey of wonderment and paradox, to glimpse the universe in a novel perspective, in which subject and object, mind and matter, force and field, become intertwined. Even the creation of the universe itself has fallen within the province of scientific inquiry.The new cosmology provides, for the first time, a consistent picture of how all physical structures, including space and time, came to exist out of nothing. We are moving towards an understanding in which matter, force, order and creation areunified into a single descriptive theme.Many of us who work in fundamental physics are deeply impressed by the harmony and orderwhich pervades the physical world. To me laws of the universe, from quarks to quasars, dovetail together so felicitously that the impression there is something behind it all seems overwhelming. The laws of physics are so remarkably clever they can surely only be a manifestation of genius.l. The author says people nowadays find that traditional religion isA. a form of reassuranceB. inadequate to their needsC. responding to scientific progressD. developing in strange ways2. Scientists find the new cults bewildering because they areA. too reactionaryB. based on false evidenceC. derived from inappropriate sourcesD. too subjective3. Which phrase in paragraph 3 suggests that the universe is like a machine?A. Cold precision and objective materialism.B. The shadowy and unsubstantial nature of atoms.C. Slavishly unfolding along a predetermined pathway.D. Shifting Indeterminism and subtle interactions.4. The new physics is exciting because itA. offers a comprehensive explanation of the universeB. proves the existence of a ruling intelligenceC. incorporates the work of men of geniusD. makes scientific theories easier to understand5. The author of this passage isA. a minister of religionB. a research scientistC. science fiction writerD. a journalistQuestions 6 to 16 are based on the following passage.Suddenly Lady Windermere looked eagerly round the room, and said, in her clear contralto voice, "where is my chiromantist?""Your what, Gladys?" exclaimed the Duchess, trying to remember what a chiromantist really was, and hoping it was not the same as a chiropodist."my chiromantist, Duchess; I can't live without him at present.I must certainly introduce him to you.”"Introduce him!" cried the Duchess. “You don't mean to say he is here?" She began looking about for a small tortoiseshell fan and a very tattered lace shawl so as to be ready to go at a moment's notice."Of course he is here; 1 would not dream of giving a party without him. He tells me I have a pure psychic hand.""Oh, 1 see!" said the Duchess, feeling very much relieved. "He tells fortunes, I suppose?""And misfortunes, too" answered Lady Windermere. "Any amount of them. Next year, for instance, I am in great danger, both by land and sea, so J am going to live in a balloon, and draw up my dinner in a basket every evening. It is all written down on my little finger, or on the palm of my hand. I forgot which." "But surely that is tempting Providence, Gladys." "My dear Duchess, surely Providence can resist temptation by this time. Everyone should have their hands told once a month, so as to know what not to do. Of course, one does it all the same, but it is so pleasantto be warned. Ah, here is Mr. Podgers! Now, Mr. Podgers, I want you to tell the Duchess of Paisley's hand.""Dear Gladys, I really don't think it is quite right," said the Duchess, feebly unbuttoning a rather soiled kid glove."Nothing interesting ever is," said Lady Windmere. "But 1 must introduce you. Duchess, this is Mr. Podgers, my pet chiromantist. Mr. Podgers, this is the Duchess of Paisley, and if you say that she has a larger mountain of the moon than I have, I will never believe you again.""1 am sure, Gladys, there is nothing of the kind in my hand," said the Duchess gravely."Your grace is quite right," said Mr. Podgers, glancing at the little fat hand."The mountain of the moon is not developed. The line of life, however, is excellent You will live to a great age, Duchess, and be extremely happy. Ambition—very moderate, line of intellect not exaggerated, line of heart——”"Now. do be indiscreet, Mr. Podgers," cried Lady Windermere."Nothing would give me greater pleasure," said Mr. Podgers, bowing, "if the Duchess ever had been, but I am sorry to say that I see great permanence of affection, combined with a strong sense of duty.""Pray go on, Mr. Podgers," said the Duchess, looking quite pleased."Economy is not the least of your Grace's virtues," continued Mr. Podgers, and lady Windermere went off into fits of laughter.“Economy is a very good thing, remarked the Duchess complacently. When I married Paisley he had eleven castles, and not a single house fit to live in.""And now he has twelve houses, and not a single castle,"criedLady Windmere." "you have told the Duchess's character admirably, Mr. Podgers, and now you must tell Lady Flora's." In answer to a nod, a tall girl stepped awkwardly from behind the sofa and held out a long, bony hand."Ah, a pianist!" said Mr. Podgers. “Very reserved, very honest, and with a great love of animals.”"Quite true!" exclaimed the Duchess, turning to Lady Windermere. "Flora keeps two dozen collie dogs at Macloskie, and would turn our town house into a menagerie if her father would let her.""Well, that is just what I do with my house every Thursday evening," cried Lady Windermere, laughing. "Only I like lions better than collie dogs, But Mr. Podgers must read some more hands for us. Come, Lady Marvel, show him yours."But Lady Marvel entirely declined to have her past or her future exposed. In fact, many people seemed afraid to face the odd little man with his stereotyped smile and his bright, beady eyes; and when he told poor Lady Fermor right out before everyone that she did not care a bit for music, but was extremely fond of musicians, it was generally felt that chiromancy was a most dangerous science, and one that ought not to be encouraged, except in private.Lord Arthur Savile, however, who did not know anything about Lady Fermor's unfortunate story, was filled with curiosity to have his own hand read, and feeling somewhat shy about putting himself forward, crossed to where Lady Windermere was sitting and asked her if she thought Mr. Podgers would mind."Of course he won't mind," said Lady Windermere. "That is what he is here for. All my lions, Lord Arthur, are performing lions,and jump through hoops whenever I ask them."6. Lady Windermere's statement that she "can't live without" (line 5) her chiromantist is an example of .A. witB. satireC. exaggerationD. generalization7 The Duchess wants to "be ready to go at a moment's notice" (line 7) because sheA. is afraid of chiropodistsB. is tired of Lady WindermereC. thinks having her fortune told would be tempting ProvidenceD. does not want to meet Mr. Podgers8. The passage suggests that the Duchess wears a tattered shawl and soiled gloves because sheA. likes to save moneyB. cannot afford to buy nicer onesC. cares little about appearanceD. prefer to buy nice things for her home9. Lady Windermere's plan to live in a balloon and draw up her dinner in a basket indicates herA .desire to impress the DuchessB. inability to separate reality from fantasyC. whimsical attitude toward fortune-tellingD. respect for the accuracy of Mr. Podger's fortunes10. Lady Windermere's speech in lines21-24 shows that she _______A. likes to give advice to othersB. dislike knowing what is going to happen to herC. believes that Mr. Podgers has amazing and uncanny powersD. does not take either Providence or chiromancy very seriously.11. The Duchess says, "I really don't think it is quite right" in line 26 because sheA. has philosophical and moral objections to fortune-tellingB. thinks that trying to discern the future could be dangerousC. does not like to do what Lady Windermere tells her to doD. believes that Mr. Podgers is likely to predict bad events in her future12. Lady Windermere's use of the phrase “my pet chiromantist” suggests that Lady WindermereA. provide for Mr. Podgers's needB. perceives Mr. Podgers's devotion to herC. feels possessive toward Mr PodgersD. likes to belittle Mr. Podgers in front of her friends13. By characterizing the Duchess's line of intellect as "not exaggerated", Mr. Podgers shows himself to beA. tactfulB. disdainfulC. imaginativeD. suspicious14. The Duchess looks "quite pleased" because .A. her future is brighter than is Lady windermere'sB. her fear about tempting Providence have been allayedC. Mr. Podgers has not suggested any danger in her immediate futureD. Mr. Podgers has described her characteristics positively15. In addition to telling people's fortunes, Mr. Podgers .A. describes their characteristicsB. describes their past endeavorsC. describes their present occupationD. encourages their unspoken plansQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Extraordinary creative activity has been characterized as revolutionary, flying in the face of what is established and producing not what is acceptable but what will become accepted. According to this formulation, highly creative activity transcends the limits of an existing form and establishes a new principle of organization. However, the idea that extraordinary creativity transcends established limits is misleading when it is applied to the arts, even though it may be valid for the sciences. Differences between highly creative art and highly creative science arise in part from differences in their goals. For the sciences, a new theory is the goal and end result of the creative act. Innovative science produces new propositions in terms of which diverse phenomena can be related to one another in more coherent ways. Such phenomena as a brilliant diamond or a nesting bird are relegated to the role of data, serving as the means for formulating or testing a new theory. The goal of highly creative art is very different: the phenomenon itself becomes the direct product of the creative act. Shakespeare's Hamlet is not a tract about the behavior of indecisive princes or the uses of political power, nor is Picasso's painting Guernica primarily a prepositional statement about the Spanish Civil War or the evils of fascism. What highly creative artistic activity produces is not a new generalization that transcends established limits, but rather an aesthetic particular. Aesthetic particulars produced by the highly creative artist extend or exploit, in an innovative way, the limitsof an existing form, rather than transcend that form.This is not to deny that a highly creative artist sometimes establishes a new principle of organization in the history of an artistic field: the composer Monteverdi, who created music of the highest aesthetic value, comes to mind. More generally, however, whether or not a composition establishes a new principle in the history of music has little bearing on its aesthetic worth. Because they embody a new principle of organization, some musical works, such as the operas of the Florentine Camerata, are of signal historical importance, but few listeners or musicologists would include these among the great works of music. On the other hand, Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro is surely among the masterpieces of music even though its modest innovations are confined to extending existing means. It has been said of Beethoven that he toppled the rules and freed music from the stifling confines of convention. But a close study of his compositions reveals that Beethoven overturned no fundamental rules. Rather, he was an incomparable strategist who exploited limits the rules, forms, and conventions that he inherited from predecessors such as Haydn and Mozart, Handel and Bach in strikingly original ways.16. The author considers a new theory that coherently relates diverse phenomena to one another to be the .A. basis for reaffirming a well-established scientific formulationB. byproduct of an aesthetic experienceC. tool used by a scientist to discover a new particularD. result of highly creative scientific activity17. The passage supplies information for answering all of the following questions EXCEPT:A. Has unusual creative activity been characterized as revolutionary?B. Did Beethoven work within a musical tradition that also Included Handel and Bach?C. Is Mozart's The Marriage of Figaro an example of a creative work that transcended limits?D. Who besides Monteverdi wrote music that the author would consider to embody new principles of organization and to be of high aesthetic value?18. The author regards the idea that all highly creative artistic activity transcends limits with .A. deep skepticismB. strong indignationC. marked indifferenceD. moderate amusement19. The author implies that an innovative scientific contribution is one thatA. is cited with high frequency in the publications of other scientistsB. is accepted immediately by the scientific communityC does not relegate particulars to the role of dataD introduces a new valid generalization20. Which of the following statements would most logically conclude the last paragraph of the passage?A. Unlike Beethoven, however, even the greatest of modern composers, such as Stravinsky, did not transcend existing musical forms.B. In a similar fashion, existing musical forms were even further exploited by the next generation of great European composers.C. Thus, many of the great composers displayed the same combination of talents exhibited by Monteverdi.D. By contrast, the view that creativity in the arts exploits but does not transcend limits is supported in the field of literature.Section B (10 points)Directions: Read the following passage carefully and give answers to the five questions. Write your answers on the Answer Sheet.By the mid century there emerged a trend in writing that favored a new approach to constructing the novel that abandoned many of the time-honored traditions of form. In deed, there has been debate about whether many of the works of the times should rightly be considered novels at all. Although not all writers of the period pursued experimental methods, two of them, William Burroughs and Henry Miller, served as exemplary figures.William Burroughs published journals depicting his travels through South America and North Africa. He was heavily influenced by his encounter with foreign languages and associations with strange customs. The impact of his experiences on his writing led to a uniquely detached style. Often it is difficult to determine who is telling the stories, or where the characters have come from. In his most celebrated work Naked Lunch, Burroughs is said to have physically cut up the manuscript and pasted it back together, to further disturb the conventional notion of narration. Although these writing techniques did not boost initial sales of his works, American academia accepts him as an important practitioner of literary theory.Henry Miller wrote about his personal life in a depth that previous authors had avoided. In order to better expose compulsive desires, he used very graphic language to describethe details of his intimate relationships. His books Tropic of Capricorn and Tropic of Cancer were banned in some states when they were first published. Although there are disagreements about Miller's moral positions, he is acknowledged as an important contributor to mid-twentieth century American fiction.21. What is the main topic of this passage?22. What did the passage preceding this one probably discuss?23. What can we assume about Burroughs' earlier works?24. What is the most difficult aspect of reading the book Naked Lunch?25. What can we infer about the works of the two men?Part IV Translation (30 points)Section A E-C translation (15 points)Directions; Read the following passage carefully aid translate it into good Chinese. Write your translation on the answer sheet.Translating versus interpretingSome problems arise because people think of translating and interpreting as being two entirely different kinds of operations, one written and the other spoken. But both are part of the same act of producing in a receptor language the closest natural equivalent of the source text, whether spoken or written. The significant differences are the speed with which an interpreter must make decisions, the enormous tension to keep up with the rapid flow of spoken language, the background knowledge necessary for instant recall, and the willingness to produce something that may not be "perfect." In fact, no interpretation is ever perfect.Interpreting can, however, be an important plus for a translator, because it immediately forces him or her to be up to。

Before you write something, you need to have a clear idea of the topic, the audience, and the purpose of your writing. In this lecture, we’ll concentrate on one of these elements, the audience. This is a very important concept for writing. The term audience usually refers to viewers of movies and TV shows and listeners of radio programs. Here we expand it to include readers of written materials or any discussions of writing activities. The importance of a keen awareness of your audience throughout the writing process can not be overemphasized. Audiences can be examined from three different perspectives: 1. Your social relations to your audience: 2. Your audience’s knowledge about your subject: 3. Your audience’s attitudes or viewpoints to the subject and your position in the writing. Let’s discuss them one by one. Now, first point, analyze your audience in terms of your social relations. Whenever you write, you are interacting with other members of the society. Are you writing to a friend of yours? To a colleague? To the director of your business , firm? To the admission office of an American college? In each situation, you have a different social relationship with your audience and this relationship has a definite impact on the shape of your writing. No one in his or her right mind would write a letter of application to the dean of the graduate school as if the dean was one of his or her buddies. The second point, analyze your audience in terms of their knowledge of the subject you are writing about. This analysis is valuable particularly in informative and explanatory writing. Suppose you are writing a paper comparing the Mid-autumn Festival and Thanksgiving. How much knowledge would you assume your American readers already have about the Chinese holiday and how much about their own? Obviously, very little about the former and a whole lot about the latter. In such a paper, you need to take care not to bore your readers to death by telling them what they already know while leaving them tantalizingly unsatisfied about what they are so eager to learn. The emphasis here should be to show the striking differences and subtle parallels rather than to give exhaustively detailed information on each holiday. Now, the third point, analyze your audience in terms of their attitudes or viewpoints to the subject and your position in the writing. This analysis is vitallyimportant in writing persuasive or argumentative essays, which is much more complex and challenging. In a persuasive essay you present reasons and arguments to convince your readers that they should accept a belief or to take a position or a specific action. For persuasive or argumentative writings, you can classify audiences into three groups: those who agree, those who are neutral or undecided, and those who disagree. When writing to an audience who already sees eye to eye with you about a controversial issue, is there much you need to do? Not much. If you are addressing an audience who already shares your view about developing and maintaining a mature and constructive relationship between China and the United States in the 21st century, all you need to do is restate why such a relationship is in the vital interests of both countries and of the whole world. When writing to audiences who are neutral or undecided, you have the most to do and can hope to achieve a lot. Say you want to propose that anew financial aid system be established to help those bright students in rural and less prosperous areas of the country. You are concerned that with today’s new tuition policy and practice, those students will be priced out of a chance for the high education they deserve so much. Some people may be undecided because they have some doubts and concerns: Where does the money needed for such an aid come from? What are the specific standards whereby to award scholarships? Are there more fair and efficient alternative solutions? Once you find out why your audiences are undecided, you need to address their doubts and concerns as directly and fully as possible. You have a fairly good chance of winning them over when their questions are answered satisfactorily. And audiences who disagree are the most difficult to write to. Different people disagree with you for different reasons. Some of them may have already given the issue a thought and have already made a choice: therefore, it is extremely difficult to change their minds. Others who disagree may not have had the time to think it over seriously. There are two main possible reasons why your audiences may disagree with you: 1. because they don’t have the “facts” or because they look at the same “facts”differently: 2. because they are influenced by their personal opinion, prejudice, and political or religious beliefs. Once you have found why they disagree, you can decide what is the best approach to such audiences. If it is a lack of information, your job is to give them the relevant historical as well as up to date information as accurately as possible. If it is for personal, political and religious reasons, you need to recognize them, understand them, and address them accordingly. Now, we can see that audience awareness is so crucial to the success of your writing. In actual practice, you may need to analyze your audience in terms of three factors: social relations, knowledge, and viewpoints in order to decide the best approach for your writing. And in the next lecture, we’ll discuss the writing purpose and your role in the writing. Thanks for your attention!Audience of Writing Audience is a very important concept for writing.

Today we’re going to talk about the power of self-talk. (1)Life is like a big swing, dangling between the depths of happiness and sadness. As soon as we descend down the slope of sadness, we accelerate over slope of happiness. At times of distress, we slip over an abyss of emotional trauma and frustrations.(2)One who can rise above the occasion is the architect of many wins over sorrows. (3)To come above tougher times you have to pep yourself up, when you are feeling low, lost and confused. This can be done effectively by self-talk. Self-talk is a way of talking to oneself.(4)It can be effectively used for soul searching. When talking to ourselves, we hardly he as our conscience controls our speech. Self-talk is efficient because when we are vocal about our thoughts,(5)it makes a larger impact on our mind. Our brain then receives the same message from the mind as well as the ears. This repetition pep talks and thoughts fine tunes the performance of brain. (7)Self-talk is a software, whichwhen properly loaded onto our mind directs ourselves for better results and a healthy mind. Actually many times in our life, we find others advising us to do better in studies, sports, life etc. We usually get bugged by these people and blank our ears out of their constructive suggestions. It is because it doesn’t come from within us.(8)And when something comes from within you, you always try your best to do justice to it.(6)Self-talk can thus improve our status. Each one of us has some good points and some bad ones. Though we hardly admit in pubic, we know in our mind that we could do better in some areas of our personal landscape.(9)Using self-talk can get better attitude converted into a practical reality. If you are an introvert and you want to be the gregarious person like your friend next door, all you need to do is talk to yourself. Tell yourself with all the sincerity and emotions that “ I can be like him. I am a natural born speaker. I do like people and speaking comes naturally to me. I just have to be ready to listen and speak. “ Suppose you love a person and want to tell him or her, then just say to yourselves “I love her with all my heart. She is the only one and I know it. If I don’t let her know, it would be grave injustice on my part. “Every person loves to be loved. Even she will. These are just some examples I have explained. If you are highly optimistic to do better,(10)there is no better motivator than self-talk. So guys start talking. Thank you very much.The Power of Self-talk I.

(3’* 20 =60’)Directions: There are four passages in this section. Each section is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D.You should decide on the best choice and write your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1It remains to be seen whether the reserves of raw materials would be sufficient to supply a world economy which would have grown by 500 per cent. Southeast Asia alone would have an energy consumption five times greater than that of Western Europe in 1970. Incidentally, if the underdeveloped countries started using up pet petrol at the same rate as the industrialized areas, then world reserves would already be exhausted by 1985.All this only goes to show just how important it is to set up a plan to conserve and divide up fairly natural resources on a world-wide scale.This is a matter of life and death because world population is exploding at an incredible rate.By the middle of the next century population will expand every year by as much as it did in the first 1500 years after Christ. In the southern, poor part of the globe, the figures are enough to make your hair stand on end.Even supposing that steps are taken to stabilize world population in the next fifty years, the number of inhabitants per square kilometer will increase by from 4 in the United States to 140 in Southeast Asia.What can we do about it?In the first hypothesis we do nothing.By the year 2000, the southern parts of the world would then have a population greater than the total world population today. Calcutta would have 60 million inhabitants. It is unthinkable.Alternatively, we could start acting tight now to bring births under control within fifteen years ago so that population levels off.Even then the population in the southern areas would not stop growing for seventy-five years.71.By the year 2000 the world economy will have grown by ______.A.500 per centB.100 per centC.four timesD.an unknown amount72.World petrol reserves will be used up by 1985 if ______.A.Western European consumption continues to expandB.Southeast Asia does not limit its consumptionC.underdeveloped countries start to use petrol at the same rate as Western EuropeD.World population continues to expand73.If we took effective measures right now, the world’s population _________.A.could stabilize in thirty-five years’ timeB.would not stop growing for seventy-five yearsC.would stop growing in about fifteen years’ time from nowD.could stabilize in about seventy-five years’ time74.The author suggests in the passage that _________.A.world petrol supplies will have been exhausted by 1985B.we need to use natural resources carefully and divide them up equallyC.to slow down the economic growth in developed countries might be a best policyD.raw materials will not be enough for the world economy in 200075.The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _________.A.urge people to start taking action right awayB.tell people about the astounding rate of population growthC.describe the problems the world will be faced withD.give an account of the relationship between population growth and industryPassage 2Why do some new products succeed, bringing millions of dollars to innovative companies, while others fail, with great losses? The answer is not simple, and certainly we cannot say that “good” products succeed while “bad” products fail. Many products that function well and seem to meet consumer needs have fallen by the wayside.Sometimes, virtually identical products exist in the market at the same time with one emerging as profitable while the other fails.McNeal Laboratories’ Tylenol has become successful as an aspirin substitute, yet Bristol-Meyers entered the test market at about the same time with Neotrend, also a substitute for aspirin, which quickly failed.The nature of the product is a factor in its success or failure, but the important point is the consumer’s perception of the products need-satisfying capability. Any new product conception should be aimed at meeting a customer need, and the introductory promotion should seek to communicate that need satisfying quality and motivate the customer to try the product. Often, attitude change is involved, and, in the extreme, changes in life-style may be sought.Here the company walks a tightrope.A new product is more likely to be successful if it represents a truly novel way of solving a customer problem, but this very newness, if carried too far, may asked the customer to learn new behavior patterns. The customer will make the change if the perceived benefit is sufficient, but inertia is strong and consumers will often not go to the effort that is required.During the late sixties and early seventies Bristol-Meyers met with new product failures that exemplify both of these problems. In 1967 and 1968 the company entered the market with a $5 million advertising campaign for Fact toothpaste, and an $11 million campaign to promote Resolve.Both products failed quickly, not because they didn’t work or because there was no consumer need, but apparently because consumers just could see no reason to shift from an already satisfactory product to a different one that promised no new benefit.76.The first sentence of first paragraph is a question, to which, the answer is _______.A.that the good products succeed while the bad failB.that the “good” are not really good but the “bad” are actually badC.that new products will succeed if they function well and fail if they don’tD.not given in the paragraph77.What are Tylenol and Neotrend?A.They are names of two drug manufacturers.B.They are probably two brands of medicine which serve as a substitute for aspirin.C.Tylenol is a drug manufacturer whereas Neotrend is a new substitute medicine for aspirin.D.They are probably the names of two laboratories.78.The success or failure of a product seems to be determined by a number of factors, one of which, the author emphasizes, is the consumer’s perception of the product’s _______.A.quality and priceB.usefulness and durabilityC.need-satisfying capabilityD.appearance and inner packing79.What does the author mean when he says “the company walks a tightrope” (see sentence 1, paragraph 3)?A.The company has both the chance to succeed and to fail in dealing in a new product.B.The company has to study the customer’s behavior before a new product is introduced.C.The company has to find a new way to solve customer’s problems before a new product is put on the market.D.The company has to make a great effort to overcome the customer’s intertia.80.Bristol-Meyers failed in promoting Fact toothpaste and Resolve because _____.A.these products were too expensive as compared with their direct competitorsB.both products failed to meet the customers’ needC.the customers could see no sense of a radica1 change of their habitsD.the company forgot an English saying: “You cannot teach an old dog new tricks”Passage 3The more women and minorities make their way into the ranks of management, the more they seem to want to talk about things formerly judged to be best left unsaid.The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye, in the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyone’s experience in the organization.Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead.Coleman is black.He spent 11 years with IBM, half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant to the likes of AT&T, Coca-Cola, Prudential, and Merch.Coleman says that based on what he’s seen at big companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long-term career success as follows: performance counts a mere 10%; image, 30%; and exposure, a full 60%.Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won’t secure you the big promotion. He finds that advancement more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are.Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who, like Coleman, feel that he scales have dropped from their eyes. “Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs,” says Kaleel Jamison, a New York-based management consultant who helps corporations deal with these issues. “They think that if you work hard, you’ll get ahead – that someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion.” She adds, “Most women and blacks are so frightened that people think they’ve gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down their visibility.” Her advice to those folks: learn the ways thatwhite males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight.81.According to the passage, “things formerly judged to be best left unsaid” (Lined 3, Pare.1)probably refers to “______”.A.criticisms that shape everyone’s experienceB.the opinion which contradict the established beliefsC.the tendencies that help the newcomers to see office matters with a fresh eyeD.the ideas which usually come up with new ways of management in the organization82.To achieve success in your career, the most important factor, according to the passage, is to _____.A.let your superiors know how good you areB.project a favorable image to the people around youC.work as a consultant to your superiorsD.perform well your tasks given by your superiors83.The reason why women and blacks play down their visibility is that they ______.A.know that someone in authority will reach down and give them a promotionB.want to give people the impression that they work under false beliefsC.don’t want people to think that their promotions were due to sex or colorD.believe they can get promoted by reason of their sex or color84.The author is of the opinion that Coleman’s beliefs are ________.A.biasedB.popularC.insightfulD.superficial85.The best title for this passage would be ________.A.Role of Women and Minorities in ManagementB.The Importance of Being VisibleC.Job Performance and AdvancementD.Sex and Career SuccessPassage 4Geologists have been studying volcanoes for a long time.Though they have learned a great deal, they still have not discovered the causes of volcanic action, they know that the inside of earth is very hot, but they are not sure exactly what causes the great heat. Some geologists have thought that the heat is caused by the great pressure of the earth’s outer layers. Or the heat may be left from the time when the earth was formed.During the last sixty years scientists have learned about radium, thorium, and other radioactive elements. These give out the heat all the time as they change into other elements. Many scientists now believe that much of the heat inside the earth is produced by radioactive elements.Whatever the cause of the heat may be, we do know that the earth getter hotter the farther down we dig.In deep mines and oil wells the temperature rises about IF. for each 50 feet. At this rate the temperature 40 miles below the earth’s surface would be over 4000 F. This is much hotter necessary to melt rock.However, the pressure of the rock above keeps most materials from melting at their usual melting points. Geologists believe that the rock deep in the earth may be plastic, or puttylike.In other words, the rock yields slowly to pressure but is not liquid.But if some changes in the earth’s crust releases the pressure, the rock melts. Then the hot, liquid rock can move up toward the surface.When the melted rock works its way close to the earth’s crust, a volcano may be formed.The melted rock often contains steam and other gases under great pressure.If the rock above gives way, the pressure is released.Then the sudden expansion of the gases causes explosions. These blow the melted rock into pieces of different sizes and shoot them high in the air.Here they cool and harden into volcanic ash and cinders. Some ofthis materials falls around the hole made in the earth’s surface.The melted rock may keep on rising and pour out as lava.In this way, volcanic ash, cinders, and lava build up the cone-shaped mountains t that we call volcanoes.86.This passage mainly deals with the ______.A.A. causes of volcanic actionB.formation of volcanoesC.results of volcanic actionD.work of geologists87.The cause for the heat in interior of the earth is _____.A.radioactive elementsB.the great pressure of the earthC.not mentioned in the passageD.the heat remaining from the formation of the earth88.From the information given in the passage, most minerals would melt ____.A.A. at 400 F, 5000 feet above sea levelB.at 400F, 5000 feet below sea levelC.at 4000F, at sea levelD.with the pressure of the rock above89.From the passage we know that “thorium”(para.1)may be _____.A.volcanoB.radioactive elementC.the earth’s out layerD.heat inside the earth90.The main idea of the last paragraph is _____.A.what causes explosionsB.cause of volcanoesC.formation of volcanoes at earth’s surfaceD.melted rockPartⅤTranslation.

I was returning to my old neighborhood in the South Bronx to speak to the students of my old school, Morris High. As we drove down streets where my friend Gene Norman and I used to race bicycles, I thought of the pitfalls awaiting the kids living here, the drugs, the temptations, and the crime. What could I say to encourage them?As we passed the hamburger place that I used to haunt, I remembered my growing-up years here, the joys, the sorrows, and the choices. Even then kids faced choices. There were drugs in my neighbourhood and a youngster could gain easy access to them if tempted. But in my family, thedecision was simple: You just didn’t do it. We knew it was stupid and the most self-destructive thing you could do with the life God had given you.At age of 17 I found a summer job in a local soft-drink bottling plant at 90 cents an hour. I was thrilled. On my first day of work, having joined the ranks of other newly hired teenagers, I was full of enthusiasm. The bottling machines caught my eye, but only the white boys worked there. I was hired as a porter and the foreman handed me a mop. I got to work. I mopped what seemed like acres of sticky, cola-strained floor. I decided to be the best mop wielder there ever was. Right to left, left to right. One day someone let 50 cases of cola crash to the cement, and brown sticky foam cascaded across the floor. It was almost more than I could bear. But I kept on mopping. Right to left, left to right.As our car rolled on, our driver’s voice broke my reverie. “We’re here, General.” I looked up at my old school; it hadn’t changed much. As I walked up its familiar stone steps I remembered racing up them to beat the bell. The setting for my talk to the student body was the gymnasium.“I remember this place,” I told the students. “ I remember it all. I remember running through Van Cortland Park with the track team, the rout I used to take each day from my home to Kelly Street to school.”“I also remember, upon occasions, experiencing the feeling `you can’t make it’”, I continued. “ But you can. When I was coming up, opportunities were limited. But now the opportunities are there to be anything you want to be. But wanting to be isn’t enough, dreaming about it isn’t enough. You’ve got to study for it, work for it, fight for it with all your heart, energy and soul so that nothing will be denied you.I wanted them to make the right choices, to work hard and not lose sight of a dream. And I wanted them to know that someone is always watching.1.Why does the author say that he faced an enjoyable yet formidable challenge?
