Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness, vigor, and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those who, of course, who would adopt the epicurean (享乐者) motto of "Eat, drink, and be merry," but most people would be chastened (磨练) by the certainty of impendent death. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived, in the shadow of death bring a mellow sweetness to everything they do. Most of us, however, take life for granted. We know that one day we must die, but usually we picture that day as far in the future. When we are in buoyant (乐观的) health, death is all but unimaginable. We seldom think of it. The days stretch out in an endless vista.

Each passage 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.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Pronouncing a language is a skill. Every normal person is expert in the skill of pronouncing his own language; but few people are even moderately proficient in pronouncing foreign languages. Now there are many reasons for this, some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I suggest that the fundamental reason why people in general do not speak foreign languages much better than they do is that they fail to grasp the true nature of the problem of learning to pronounce, and consequently never set about tackling it in the right way. Far too many people fail to realize that pronouncing a foreign language is a skill — one that needs careful training of a special kind, and one that cannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of itself. I think even teachers of language, while recognizing the importance of good accent, tend to neglect, in their practical teaching, the branch of study concerned with speaking the language. So the first point I want to make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher should be prepared to devote some of the lesson time to this, and his whole attitude to the subject should get the student to feel that there is a matter worthy of receiving his close attention. So, there should be occasions when other aspects of English, such as grammar or spelling, are allowed for the moment to take second place.Apart from the question of the time given to pronunciation, there are two other requirements for the teacher: the first, knowledge; the second, technique.It is important that the teacher should be in possession of the necessary information. This can generally be obtained from books. It is possible to get from books some ideas of the mechanics of speech, and of what we call general phonetic theory. It is also possible in this way to get a clear mental picture of the relationship between the sounds of different languages, between the speech habits of English people and those, say, of your students. Unless the teacher has such a picture, any comments he makes on his students' pronunciation are unlikely to be of much use, and lesson time spent on pronunciation may well be time wasted.31.What does the author actually say about pronouncing foreign languages?A) There aren't many people who are even fairly good at it.B) Only a few people are really proficient.C) No one is really an expert in the skill.D) There are even some people who are moderately proficient.正确答案：C32.The author argues that going about the problem of pronunciation in the wrong way is __________.A) an obvious cause of not grasping the problem correctlyB) a consequence of not grasping the problem correctlyC) a fundamental consequence of not speaking wellD) not an obvious cause of speaking poorly正确答案：C33.The best way of learning to speak a foreign language, the author suggests, is by ___________.A) picking it up naturally as a childB) learning from a native speakerC) undertaking systematic workD) not concentrating on pronunciation much正确答案：C34.The value the student puts on correct speech habits depends on _________.A) how closely he attends to the matterB) whether it is English that is being taughtC) his teacher's approach to pronunciationD) the importance normally given to grammar and spelling正确答案：C35.How might the teacher find himself wasting lesson time?A) By making ill-informed comments upon pronunciation.B) By spending lesson time on pronunciation.C) By not using books on phonetics in the classroom.D) By not giving students a clear mental picture of the differences between sounds.正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.In the world of entertainment, TV talk shows have undoubtedly flooded every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one varies in style and format. But no two shows are more profoundly opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows. Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "trash talk (废话)". The topics on his show are as shocking as shocking can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show themes of love, sex, cheating, guilt, hate, conflict and morality to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is a display and exploitation of society's moral catastrophes (灾难), yet people are willing to eat up the intriguing predicaments (困境) of other people's lives. Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its extreme, but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individual's quality of life. Topics range from teaching your children responsibility, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech that sums up the entire moral of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main target audience are middle-class Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and stability to deal with life's tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of an association with the young adults of society. These are 18- to 21-year-olds whose main troubles in life involve love, relationship, sex, money and peers. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned underneath the show's exploitation.While the two shows are as different as night and day, both have ruled the talk show circuit for many years now. Each one caters to a different audience while both have a strong following from large groups of fans. Ironically, both could also be considered pioneers in the talk show world.36.Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are __________.A) more family-orientedB) unusually popularC) more profoundD) relatively formal正确答案：C37.Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear distasteful, the audience __________.A) remain fascinated by themB) are ready to face up to themC) remain indifferent to themD) are willing to get involved in them正确答案：A38.Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A) A new type of robot.B) Racist hatred.C) Family budget planning.D) Street violence.正确答案：C39.Despite their differences, the two talk shows are both _________.A) ironicalB) sensitiveC) instructiveD) cynical正确答案：B40.We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ____________.A) have monopolized the talk show circuitB) exploit the weaknesses in human natureC) appear at different times of the dayD) are targeted at different audiences正确答案：DPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

In a special school for the hearing-impaired, he learned sign language and got to mix with other disabled children. However, the sight of all the disabled children communicating with one another upset his mother. She wanted him to lead a normal life. So after speaking to an advisor, she sent him to private classes where he learned to read lips and pronounce words.Later on, Adrian's parents decided to send him to a regular school. But the headmaster tried to prevent them from doing so; saying regular school couldn't take care of special needs students. His parents were determined to take the risk and push him hard to go through his work everyday because they wanted to prove that, given the opportunity, he could do anything. Adrian made the grade and got accepted. It was a big challenge. The pace was faster so he had to sit at the front of the class and really pay attention to the teacher, which wasn't always easy. But he stuck to it and did a lot of extra work after school.The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off. Adrian graduated with good grades and got into a top high school. He also achieved a lot in life outside school. He developed a love for the outdoors and went to Nepal to climb mountains. He even entered the World Yacht Race 05/06 – being the first hearing-impaired Asian to do so.But none of these achievements would have been possible without one of the most important lessons from his mother. "If you believe in yourself and work hard, you can achieve great results." She often said.31.How did Adrian communicate with other children and teacher in regular school?A) By speaking.B) By using sign language.C) By learning to read lips and pronounce words.D) By making loud noises.正确答案： C32.Adrian's parents decided to send him to a regular school because ____.A) they wanted to prove the headmaster wrongB) they wanted him to lead a normal lifeC) he wouldn't mix with other disabled childrenD) he wasn't taken good care of in the special school正确答案： B33.The sentence "The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off."

More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, which would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse.Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. "This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law," he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances.The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read "No Nukes is Good Nukes," "Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power," and "Stop Private Profits from Public Peril." They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by police failed to dislodge the protestors who had come prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.36.The demonstrators were protesting for ____.A) private profitsB) nuclear power stationC) the project of nuclear power constructionD) public peril正确答案： C37.____wore gas-masks.A) EverybodyB) A part of the protestorsC) PolicemenD) Both B and C正确答案： D38.Which of the following was NOT mentioned as a reason for the demonstration?A) Disposal of wastes.B) Public peril.C) Pollution.D) Public transportation.正确答案： D39.Why would the state judicial system collapse?A) Because the state judicial system itself was too fragile.B) Because the court and jail were too crowded to accommodate those arrested demonstrators.C) Because the demonstrators wanted to abolish the current state judicial system.D) Because the state authority wanted to abolish it and set up a new one.正确答案： B40.What is the attitude of Governor Stanforth Thumper toward the power project?A) Stubborn.B) Insistent.C) Insolvable.D) Remissible.正确答案： APart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before makingyour choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Does good teamwork require good relationships between team members? Below is an example that seems to 21 that myth.In 1998, the main striking partnership of Manchester United was Andy Cole and Teddy Sheringham. These two had primary 22 for scoring goals. To do so against good opposition required a great deal of cooperation between them.During a game at Bolton, an incident occurred that caused a complete 23 in their relationship. When Bolton scored, Sheringham 24 Cole for it, and Cole then refused to talk to him.The breakdown in relationship was never 25 , and reputedly they never spoke again.In the following season (1998-1999) Andy Cole and Teddy Sheringham continued as the main striking partnership, supported by other players. They continued to play gamesand 26 on the pitch, but off the field they didn't speak.During that season, Manchester United achieved a unique treble that no British club had ever achieved. They won:The Premiership LeagueThe FA CupThe European Cup (the biggest club football prize in Europe)Cole and Sheringham continued to play together during the next season as well, that is 1999-2000. During that time, with Cole and Sheringham as the main striking partnership, Manchester United set up two Premiership League records:They reached 50 goals in just 19 gamesThey scored a total of 97 goals in the seasonHere we have two people whose relationship was allegedly so bad that they hadn't spoken to each other for over a year. Yet, despite the off-field 27 between them, their cooperation on the field was excellent and they made a significant contribution to, arguably, ManchesterUnited's most successful season ever.This may be an 28 example, but it 29 the principle that personal liking, ora 30 relationship, are not essential for good teamwork. What matters is that the behaviorused (in this case, on the pitch) is one that leads to optimum performance.A) praised B) dispel C) cooperate D) friendlinessE) hostility F) harmonious G) extreme H) blamedI) resolved J) fight K) responsibility L) breakdownM) dismissed N) illustrates O) support21. ______________________正确答案：B学生答案：C得分：0分22. ______________________ 正确答案：K学生答案：A得分：0分23. ______________________ 正确答案：L学生答案：L得分：1分24. ______________________ 正确答案：H学生答案：H得分：1分25. ______________________ 正确答案：I学生答案：M得分：0分26. ______________________ 正确答案：C学生答案：K得分：0分27. ______________________ 正确答案：E学生答案：B得分：0分28. ______________________ 正确答案：G学生答案：G得分：1分29. ______________________ 正确答案：N学生答案：O得分：0分30. ______________________正确答案：F学生答案：D得分：0分Section BDirections: There are several passages in this section. Each passage 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.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn't ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics — a better job, a raise, praise — many people are still unable — or unwilling — to "play the game.""People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior,"says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. "But politics derives from the word 'polite'. It can mean lobbying and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return."In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one's own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form of socializing within the office environment — not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well."The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis," says Neil P. Lewis, a management psychologist. "But if two or three candidates are up fora promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote theperson he or she likes best. It's simple human nature."Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favors.Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for someself-promotion.31. Why are many people unwilling to "play the game" (underlined part in Para.2)?A) They believe that doing so is impractical.B) They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.C) They are not good at manipulating colleagues.D) They think the effort will get them nowhere.正确答案：B学生答案：D得分：0分32. To get promoted, one must not only be competent but _______.A) give his boss a good impressionB) honest and loyal to his companyC) get along well with his colleaguesD) avoid being too outstanding正确答案：A学生答案：B得分：0分33. "Office politics" (the underlined part in Para.4) is used in the passage to refer to _______.A) the code of behavior for company staffB) the political views and beliefs of office workersC) the interpersonal relationships within a companyD) the various qualities required for a successful career正确答案：C学生答案：B得分：0分34. The author considers office politics to be ______.A) unwelcome at the workplaceB) bad for interpersonal relationshipsC) indispensable to the development of company cultureD) an important factor for personal advancement正确答案：D学生答案：D得分：2分35. It is the author's view that ____.A) speaking up for oneself is part of human natureB) self-promotion does not necessarily mean flatteryC) hard work contributes very little to one's promotionD) many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery正确答案：B学生答案：D得分：0分Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.If you know exactly what you want, the best route to a job is to get specialized training. A recent survey shows that companies prefer the graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.That's especially true of booing fields that are challenging for workers. At Cornell's School of Hotel Administration, for example, bachelor's degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20's and plenty of chances for rapid advancement. Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run, too much specialization doesn't pay off. Business, which has been flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval. The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially, but the impact of a degree washes out after five years. As further evidence of the erosion (销蚀) of corporate (公司的) faith in specialized degrees, Michigan State's Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices: although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management. "They want someone who isn't constrained (限制) by nuts and bolts to look at the big picture," says Scheetz.His words sound suspiciously like a formal statement that corporations approve of the liberal-arts graduates. Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have: writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptibility, and the ability to analyze and solve problems. David Birch claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree. "I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things," says Birch. Liberal-arts means an academically thorough and strict program that includes literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behavior — plus a computer course or two. With that under your belt, you can feel free to specialize. "A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace," says Scheetz.36. What kinds of people are in high demand on the job market?A) Students with a bachelor's degree in science.B) People with an MBA degree from top universities.C) People with formal schooling plus work experience.D) People with special training in engineering.正确答案：C学生答案：C得分：2分37. By saying "...but the impact of a degree washes out after five years" (underlined part inPara.3), the author means ________.A) most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundationB) an MBA degree does not help promote to managerial positionsC) MBA programs will not be as popular in five years' time as they are nowD) in five years people will forget about the degree the MBA graduates have got正确答案：B学生答案：C得分：0分38. According to Scheetz's statement (underlined in Para3), companies prefer ________.A) people who have a strategic mindB) people who are talented in fine artsC) people who are ambitious and aggressiveD) people who have received training in mechanics正确答案：A学生答案：C得分：0分39. David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because ________.A) they are more capable of handling changing situationsB) they can stick to established ways of solving problemsC) they are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fieldsD) they have attended special programs in management正确答案：A学生答案：A得分：2分40. Which of the following statements does the author support?A) Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.B) Formal schooling is less important than job training.C) On-the-job training is, in the long run, less costly.D) Generalists will outdo specialists in management.正确答案：D学生答案：C得分：0分Part III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

The reaso‎n s why they don't, and why the envir‎o nmen‎t has not been ruine‎d, have to do with price‎s, techn‎o logi‎c al innov‎a tion‎,socia‎l chang‎e and gover‎n ment‎regul‎a tion‎in respo‎n se to popul‎a r press‎u re.

You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.When school was out, I hurried to find my sister and get out of the schoolyard before seeing anybody in my class. But Barbara and her friends had beaten us to the playground entrance and they seemed to be waiting for us. Barbara said, "So now you're in the A class." She sounded impressed. "What's the A class?" I asked. Everybody made superior yet faintly envious giggling sounds. "Well, why did you think the teacher moved you to the front of the room, dopey? Didn't you know you were in the C class before, way in the back of the room?"Of course I hadn't known. The Wenatchee fifth grade was bigger than my whole school which had been in North Dakota, and the idea of subdivisions within a grade had never occurred to me. The subdividing for the first marking period had been done before I came to the school, and l had never, in the six weeks when I'd been there, talked to anyone long enough to find out about the A, B, and C classes.I still could not understand why that had made such a difference to Barbara and her friends. I didn’t yet know that it was shameful and dirty to be a transient laborer and ridiculous to be from North Dakota. I thought living in a tent was more fun than living in a house.I didn't know that we were gypsies, really (how that thought would have excited me then! ). It didn't occur to me that we were all looked upon as one more of the untrustworthy natural phenomena, drifting here and there like mists or winds, I didn't know that I was the only child who had camped on the Baumann's land ever to get out of the C class.I only knew that for two happy days I walked to school with Barbara and her friends, played hopscotch and jumped rope with them at class intervals, and was even invited into the house for some ginger ale — a strange drink I had never tasted before.31.The tone of this passage as a whole is __________.A) reflectiveB) enthusiasticC) impersonalD) defensive正确答案：A32.The narrator had most probably been placed in the C class because __________.A) she was a poor readerB) she had come from a small schoolC) the marking system confused herD) all children of transient laborers were placed in the C class正确答案：D33.The basic reason why people in the community distrusted the transient workers was that the transient workers ________.A) tended to be lawbreakersB) had little schoolingC) were afraid of strangersD) were temporary residents正确答案：D34.Which of the following is NOT the characteristic of Gypsies?A) Wandering around the world.B) Making ginger ale in their house.C) Never planting something.D) Being foreigners wherever they go.正确答案：B35.Immediately after the narrator was moved to the A class, what was the attitude of Barbara and Barbara's friends towards her?A) Dislike.B) Acceptance.C) Apology.D) Jealousy.正确答案：BPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage."The world's environment is surprisingly healthy. Discuss." If that were an examination topic, most students would tear it apart, offering a long list of complaints: from local smog to global climate change, from the felling of forests to the extinction of species. Yet the students who should be given the highest marks would actually be those who agreed with the statement. The surprise is how good things are, not how bad.After all, the world's population has more than tripled during this century, and world output has risen hugely, so you would expect the earth itself to have been affected. Indeed, if people lived, consumed and produced things in the same way as they did in 1900(or 1950, or indeed 1980), the world by now would be a pretty disgusting place: smelly, dirty, toxic and dangerous.But they don't. The reasons why they don't, and why the environment has not been ruined, have to do with prices, technological innovation, social change and government regulation in response to popular pressure. That is why today's environmental problems in the poor countries ought, in principle, to be solvable.Raw materials have not run out, and show no sign of doing so. What has happened is that every time a material seems to be running short, the price has risen and, in response, people have looked for new sources of supply, tried to find ways to use less of the material, or looked for a new substitute. For this reason prices for food fluctuate, in response to harvests, natural disasters and political instability; and when they rise, it takes some time before new sources of supply become available. But they always do, assisted by new farming and crop technology. The long term trend has been downwards.It is where prices and markets do not operate properly that this benign trend begins to stumble, and the genuine problems arise. Markets cannot always keep the environment healthy. If no one owns the resource concerned, no one has an interest in conserving it or fostering it: fish is the best example of this.36.According to the author, most students_______.A) believe the world's environment is in an undesirable conditionB) agree that the environment of the world is not as bad as it is thought to beC) get high marks for their good knowledge of the world's environmentD) appear somewhat unconcerned about the state of the world's environment正确答案：A37.The huge increase in world production and population _______.A) has made the world a worse place to live inB) has had a positive influence on the environmentC) has not significantly affected the environmentD) has made the world a dangerous place to live in正确答案：C38.One of the reasons why the long-term trend of prices has been downwards is that _____.A) technological innovation can promote social stabilityB) political instability will cause consumption to dropC) new farming and crop technology can lead to overproductionD) new sources are always becoming available正确答案：D39.Fish resources are diminishing because_______.A) no new substitutes can be found in large quantitiesB) they are not owned by any particular entityC) improper methods of fishing have ruined the fishing groundsD) water pollution is extremely serious正确答案：B40.The primary solution to environmental problems is_______.A) to allow market forces to operate properlyB) to curb consumption of natural resourcesC) to limit the growth of the world populationD) to avoid fluctuations in prices正确答案：APart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan. The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert, with light winds and slow moving water currents.

Each passage 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.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.More and more Americans are finding that they must learn to cope with chronic illness. Granted, for some of the 125 million people with chronic illnesses, the problems are minor, but for 60 million others have multiple chronic conditions that can be serious or life-threatening.The toll of so much illness is enormous — $510 billion annually. But chronic illness exacts an emotional toll as well, and it is in that realm that researchers are increasingly looking to the hard-won wisdom of patients to find ways to help others cope with diseases that might once have engulfed them in shame or despair.One view is that people with chronic illnesses should be neither pitied nor idealized, either by others or by themselves. Pity can come across as condescending. Turning someone into a hero may not help. Other mental health specialists, such as Ann Webster, take a somewhat different view. Some people with chronic illnesses do want to be seen as normal, she said, but others do seem truly heroic and may appreciate some recognition of that. "A lot of people grow and change in profound ways", Webster said. Some long-term survivors in her AIDS group "have changed and grown and turned into some of the most evolved and spiritual people, and they never were that way before." "It's really hard having a chronic illness, and knowing it is changing your life and your future," she said. Some people can throw their energies into beating their disease and returning to normal activities. But others can't beat the illness, no matter how hard they try. Many people can do this on their own, she said, but many also find it helpful to join support groups or see individual counselors. Ultimately, the task is to make meaning in the face of disability or imminent（即将发生的，逼近的）death, to reassess what's still important and what you can still do, when your old goals and dreams can no longer be met.31.Ann Webster is different from other people in that she thinks ______.A) people with chronic diseases may feel encouraged when their heroic deeds are recognizedB) people with chronic illnesses wish to be treated in the same way as a normal personC) idealizing people with chronic illnesses may put them under great mental pressureD) sympathizing people with chronic illnesses may make them feel inferior to others正确答案：A32.Which of the following is NOT TRUE of the people in Webster's group?A) Many people turn to support groups for help.B) Most of them realize they have to fight on their own.C) Some of them return to normal life by fighting hard.D) Some of them fail no matter how hard they try.正确答案：B33.We may infer from the passage that the author most probably agrees to the opinion that _____.A) people should stick to their dreams and goals no matter what happensB) people should keep fighting against diseases and turn themselves into heroesC) people should make their life meaningful by resetting goals when necessaryD) people should never give up fighting so long as there is still hope正确答案：C34.This passage is focused on ______.A) the health condition of American peopleB) the prevention of chronic illnessesC) the serious cases of chronic illnessesD) the spiritual aspect of people with chronic illnesses正确答案：D35.Which of the following statements is TRUE as described in the passage?A) The treatment for chronic illnesses mainly depends on spiritual help.B) People with chronic diseases can conquer their illness if they join support groups.C) People's overcoming chronic illnesses demands enormous cost.D) With people's utmost efforts, any chronic illness can be cured now.正确答案：CPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Elizabeth's father died when she was nine. Her family was large, and very poor. She struggled for self esteem, but it was difficult when her clothes weren't as nice as the other kids and her new school was still unfamiliar.During a math lesson, Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard and was struggling to understand a concept. With every stroke of the chalk, she became more confused. She had suffered from chronic ear infections (感染), and had missed many days of her fifth grade year. When she finally got the courage to raise her little hand and ask Mr. Thompson how the problem was done, he became very angry. He marched her up in front of the class and told this insecure child that she was "incapable of learning and extremely stupid."This remark plagued (使…困扰) Elizabeth for years.Elizabeth drifted into marriage. After discovering her husband's long time infidelity (不忠), she found herself divorced with three young daughters. She moved back to her home state and tried to pick up the pieces she had left behind.Knowing that she would be the sole support of these children, and having no desire to remarry, Elizabeth started college. Like most good mothers, she wanted the best for her children. She didn't want to deprive them of their mother. She would rise early and stay up late to get every spare minute she could to study.When she received her first "A" she was confused. She thought there must be some mistake. This was Elizabeth, Elizabeth the stupid. When her good grades piled up, she realized for the first time that maybe Mr. Thompson was wrong. She graduated from Brigham Young University, and will soon be receiving her master's degree at California State University in San Bernardino.36.The reason why Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard was that ______.A) she had ear infections and could not hear very wellB) she was still overwhelmed by the death of her fatherC) too much homework had made her tired and sickD) what the teacher wrote was beyond her understanding正确答案：D37.Mr. Thompson can be best described as a teacher who was ________.A) dull and stupidB) impatient and cruelC) strict with his studentsD) incapable of making himself understood正确答案：B38.We can learn from the passage that Elizabeth started college because she ______.A) was not a very responsible motherB) needed to be able to support her childrenC) knew she could achieve great success in collegeD) wanted her children to have an educated mother正确答案：D39.Why was Elizabeth confused when she got her first "A"?A) Because she believed that it was a mistake.B) Because she had not studied hard enough.C) Because she felt hurt by other people's comments.D) Because she did not trust her teacher.正确答案：A40.Elizabeth's case shows that _______.A) people can overcome a negative self-image through hard workB) a student can achieve great success even though he or she is stupidC) people who suffer a lot are more likely to work hard and succeed in the endD) poor children can also receive the best education and rise high in life正确答案：APart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.
