I am not talking only about the times when you see her at school. She often has a book with her when she is shopping , riding in the car , going to see relatives, or doing just about anything where there might be an opportunity ( 机会) to read . Now , you might think Sally is a bookworm (书呆子) , but that would not be accurate because she also enjoys spending a lot of time with her friends and doing lots of different things . Very simply put , books are one of Sally’s main hobbies .People practice their hobbies in many different ways .Some people like to collect stamps , others like to listen to music or go to the movies , and still others like to travel and visit new places . Sally likes to read books --- many different kinds of books. When she finds a good book in the library , she usually borrows it to investigate (研究) more deeply . She also likes to go to a large bookstore near her home, where she can see all kinds of new books and sometimes buy one that she likes.Sally’s love of books has made it a lot easier for her to do well in school because, after all, you do have to read a lot of books in your classes. When Sally gets an assignment and has to read a chapter, it almost seems like she is practicing her hobby . The books she uses in her classes are written very clearly and are really quite interesting. The only different thing is that sometimes she has to do a written exercise for homework. To Sally that seems like a small price to pay for the opportunity to read another book about something new and interesting. As Sally has read so many books and learned so many new words, she usually only has to do an assigned reading once because she understands just about everything the first time through.1.What is Sally usually doing when you see her?A)She is shopping.B)She is riding in a car.C)She is carrying a book under her arm.D)She is reading in a classroom.2.Why is it not accurate to say that Sally is a bookworm?A)Because reading is just one of her hobbies.B)Because she practices her hobbies in very simple ways.C)Because books make her look like a student.D)Because she does everything better than other people.3.The writer talks about people’s different hobbies in the second paragraph in order to tellus________.A)how many hobbies there might be among different peopleB)that reading is something that everybody likes to doC)why Sally likes reading more than other hobbiesD)that reading is a healthier hobby than other hobbies4.Sally finds it easier for her to do well in school because __________.A)through reading she has learnt a lot alreadyB)the books she uses in her classes are interestingC)once she finishes a book , she never reads it againD)she pays a small price for the opportunity to read her books5. What does Sally not like to do according to the third paragraph?A) Fast reading. B) Reading assignments.C) Chapter questions. D) Written exercises.Task 2 (10%)Directions: Reading the following passages and choose the best answer for each of the questions.No matter how you look on paper, no matter how well you present yourself, no matter how well you answer their questions, you will not get the job unless you make a personal connection with the interviewer. I need to know from the very start that you are someone I can trust to represent my company and me. How do you establish that trust? Simple. At the very beginning of the interview, when the introductions are being made, concentrate on looking directly and solidly into the interviewers’ eyes, giving them your sweetest and most endearing smile. I tend to think of it as a “shy smile”. The bottom lin e is to make it a warm and friendly smile. Then think about the fact that you are truly pleased to be there in the presence of this person. Establish that personal connection both physically and mentally with the interviewer.How do you know when the connection is made? When they return your smile in a comfortable, relaxed manner, you are connected and ready to communicate on a personal level. Remember, I only hire people I am comfortable with. If the connection is not made, I won’t hire. So take the time t o establish that personal connection.6. Which of the following is the most important factor for you to get the job?A) To wear formally and tidily.B) To prepare a good paper and all the materials needed.C) To present myself as well as possible.D) To make a personal connection with the interviewer.7. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A) It is not necessary to make eye contact with the interviewer.B) If you want to be trusted, you should know much more information about the interviewer.C) If you want to get the job, you must make the interviewer trust you with personal connection.D) It is necessary to keep smiling during the interview.8. What’s the way about establishing the trust at the very beginning of the interview t he passage mentioned?A) To stare at the interviewers’ eyes straightly during the interview.B) To be a shy person and not to sit down unless being asked.C) To give the interviewer a warm and friendly smile.D) To be a polite person and try to persuade the interviewer with rich working experience.9. How do you know when the personal connection is made?A) When the interviewer asks the questions with a smile.B) When the interviewer smiles during the whole interview.C) When the interviewee smiles during the whole interview.D) When the interviewer returns the interviewee’s smile in a comfortable, relax manner.10.Which of the following would be the most proper title of the passage?A) How to Establish Personal Connection in an InterviewB) What You Should Do in an InterviewC) How an Interviewee Can Be HiredD) The Role of Personal CommunicationTask 3 (10%)Directions:Reading the following passages and choose the best answer for each of the questions.The entertainment profession, or “show business”, attracts many young people. Unfortunately, only very few can hope to become famous. Talent is not enough, because show business is as competitive as any other business. Without a good manager, a performer can never hope to succeed. Fashion is important in his business, too. The best tailor in the world will never be a success if he makes old-fashioned clothes. In exactly the same way, a performer must change his “act” in order to follow the taste of the moment. This is true for actors, dancers and comedians, but perhaps most of all for singers.“Pop” stands for “ popular”, and a pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must either give the public what they already want, or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when he has succeeded, and his records are sold everywhere, he cannot relax. Then he must work harder than ever to remain popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity.The life of a successful pop singer is not at all easy. He can only relax when he is alone, becauseeverything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the“fans”. The fans are the most important people in the world for the singer. They buy his records, they go to his concerts, and they make him rich and famous. But they can be very annoying, too. Sometimes they get so crazy that they do anything to get a “souvenir”. They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer’s hair.Many singers have been forced to hide, and some who have not been so lucky as to escape have been stripped practically naked by their fans. A pop singer has to spend a lot of money on clothes, because he must always look smart, or, at any rate, different. He must have a luxurious car. And most important he must always keep smiling for the benefit of his public.11. How many of the young can hope to become famous?A) Nobody. B) Only very few.C) The majority of them. D) All of them.12. Which of the following is the key element to become a successful performer?A) The age. B) Education background.C) A wealthy family. D) A good manager.13. Why must a pop singer work harder when he has become famous?A) To sell more records. B) To follow the taste of the moment.C) To stay popular. D) To attract the public’s attention.14. It may be inferred from this passage that_______ .A) a pop singer is afraid of meeting his fansB) some people become pop singers by chanceC) a pop singer sometimes is unwilling to meet peopleD) pop singers have to smile all the time15. A suitable title for this passage might be_______ .A) “The Entertainment Profession” B) “How to Become a Pop Singer”C) “A Pop Singer’s Life” D) “The Pop Singer”Task 4 (10%)Directions: Reading the following passages and choose the best answer for each of the questions.Dear Sir or Madam,The ABC Company was established in 2006 and in four short years has become one of the most successful companies in the market place. For this, we are pleased ,proud and grateful .We are pleased because our customers have confirmed our belief that if the products we offer are new, exciting, innovative and of excellent quality, they will be purchased.We are proud because we know we are a company that keeps its word to its customers; that guarantees that any product can be returned within 30 days if it proves to be unsatisfactory in any way; and that always lets our customers know if there is to be a delay in delivery.We are grateful to customers like you, because you confirm our beliefs that good service andquality result in satisfied customers.

With just a few clicks, we can connect with people from all over the world, access a vast amount of knowledge, and even shop for products online. However, this convenience comes with its own set of challenges. One of the biggest concerns is the potential for online fraud and identity theft. As more and more personal information is shared online, it is crucial to take steps to protect ourselves.One of the most effective ways to protect your identity online is to use strong, unique passwords for each of your accounts. Using the same password for multiple accounts can put you at risk if one of your accounts is compromised. Additionally, it is important to be cautious when sharing personal information online. Avoid posting sensitive information such as your full name, address, or social security number on social media platforms.Another important step to protect your identity online is to keep your computer and mobile devices updated with the latest security software. This will help to prevent malware and viruses from infecting your devices and compromising your personal information. It is also important to be aware of phishing scams, which are designed to trick you into providing personal information. Be cautious of emails or messages that ask for sensitive information and always verify the legitimacy of the sender before responding.While it is impossible to completely eliminate the risk of online fraud and identity theft, taking these steps can significantly reduce your chances of becoming a victim. By being proactive and informed, you can help protect yourself from the potential dangers of the internet.16. What is one of the biggest concerns mentioned in the passage?A.

They feel discouraged when the audience is unable to understand their presentations. That happens a lot especially when technical experts are invited to make a product presentation to a group of users.What can we do to make a business presentation easier to understand? In my view, good presentations have always been simple and visual. In an effective business presentation, the fewer the points, the better the message gets passed on. You focus on the depth of coverage instead of the width (广度) of coverage. Additionally, you make your ideas visual and relevant, so the message is understood better and remembered longer. Great business presenters relate their ideas and concepts to their audience by using simple, powerful diagrams instead of relying on text-based slides. In fact, drawing diagrams forces a presenter to make the idea clear even at the preparation stage. It is impossible to draw a diagram when you are not clear about an idea. When your idea is clear, it is easier to transfer it. Most audiences understand a diagram faster and remember it longer. This possibly explains why most of the memorable presentations have been visual in nature.1. Many speakers believe that the stronger their idea .A) the more powerful their speech will be B) the more meaningful their speech will beC) the more easily the audience will understand it D) the harder the audience will find it to follow2. Why are you advised to give fewer points in your presentation?A) To pass on the messages better.B) To avoid wasting too much time.C) To allow audience to take notes. D) To leave more time for questions.3. The speaker can help the audience remember the message longer by.A) displaying text-based slides B) avoiding long technical termsC) focusing on the width of coverage D) using simple and powerful diagrams4. The underlined word “transfer” in this passage most probably means .A) create B) pass on C) take off D) describe5. This passage is mainly about .A) how to make an effective business presentation B) how to present strong ideas in a presentation C) how to focus on the depth of coverage D) how to prepare a powerful diagramBIt is necessary for us to know the following four points if we want to learn a foreign language well.Firstly, we must be able to understand the language when we hear it spoken. Secondly, we must be able to speak it ourselves correctly with confidence and without hesitation. Thirdly, we must be able to read the language. Fourthly, we must be able to write it. We must be able to make sentences that are grammatically correct. We must know how to arrange sentences in paragraphs so as to write a good letter or composition.There is no easy way to succeed in language learning. A good memory is of great help, but it is not enough simply to memorize rules from a grammar book. It is not much use learning by heart long lists of words and their meanings. We learn words and their meanings not by ourselves, but in sentences. We must learn by using the language. “Learn through use” is a good piece of advice for those who are studying a new language. Practice is very important. We must practise speaking and writing the language whenever we can.6. The underlined word “confidence” in the first paragraph probably means .A) cleverness B) carelessness C) boldness D) belief in oneself7. The first point the writer talks about is .A) listening B) speaking C) reading D) writing8. Which of the following points is NOT included in the passage?A) reading B) speaking C) writing D) translation9.
