Then, suddenly, the interviewer asks an unexpected question, “Which is more important, law or love?Job applicants in the West increasingly find themselves asked strange question like this. And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.Employers want people are skilled, enthusiastic(热情的）and devoted. So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are. In response, employers are increasingly using questions which try and show theapplicant’ s true personality.The question in the first paragraph comes from a test called Kiersey Personality Sorter. It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems, rather than what they know. This is often called aptitude(ability) testing.According to Mark Baldwin of Alliance many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult. When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is aright answer and they may well fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.This is sometimes called the prisoner’ s dilemma(窘境）. Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest. But they fail because they don’ t understand what the interviewer is lookingfor. Remember that in an aptitude test, the correct answer is always the honest answer.56.The writer wrote the passage to _____.A.give you a piece of advice on a job interviewB.tell you how to meet a job interviewerC.describe an aptitude testD.advice you how to find a job57.According to the writer, in an aptitude testing, Chinese job applicants should _____.A.not tell the truthB.learn to tell what they really thinkC.be more enthusiasticD.try to find out what the examiner really wants to know58.From the passage we know that _____.A.job applicants are always asked such questionsB.more Chinese applicants fail to find a jobC.applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisonerD.aptitude testing is becoming popular the world wideBOn May 29, 1973, Thomes Bradley, a black man, was selected mayor of the Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the third largest city in the United States, with a population of three million. About sixteen percent of the city’ s population are black.News of this election appeared on the front pages of newspapers everywhere in the United States. Here is how one major newspaper reported the event:LOS ANGELES ELECTES BRADLEY MAYOR UNSEATING YORTYBLACKS WINS% OF VOTESBradley called this victory over Yorty “the fulfilment(实现）of a dream”. During his childhood and youth, people had kept telling him,“You can’ t do this, you can’t go there, because you are a Negro.”Nevertheless he had won a decisive victory over a man who had been the city’ s mayor for three terms. Bradley had won 43.7 percent.Los Angeles voters have had many opportunities to judge. Thomes Bradley had to form an opinion of him. The son of a poor farmer in Texas, he joined the Los Angeles police force in 1940. During his twenty-one years on the police force he earned a law degree by attending school at night.He was elected to the city council(市政厅）ten years ago.At the time of the Los Angeles election, three other American cities already had black mayors, but none of those cities had as large a population as Los Angeles. Besides, the percentage of blacks in those other cities was much large. Cleveland, Ohio, had thirty-six percent black when Carl Stokes was elected mayor of Cleveland in 1967. In the same year Richard Hatcher was elected mayor of Gary, Indiana, which have fifty-five percent black. In Neward, New Jersey 60% of the population were black when Kenneth Gibson was elected in 1970. Thus election of a black mayor in those cities was not surprising.In Los Angeles thousands of whiter citizens voted for Thomas Bradley because they believed he would be a better mayor than the white candidates. Bradley had spent 48 of his 55 years in LosAngeles. Four years ago Bradley lost mayoral election to Yorty. This time Bradley won.59.In the author’ s opinion, it was surprising that _____.A.the whites would vote for a black mayorB.a black mayor would be elected in such a large cityC.a black from a poor farmer’ s family could be elected mayor of Los AngelesD.there would be so many black mayors60.From the passage we can infer that people _____.A.voted for Bradley because his black colorB.didn’ t care much about his color when they votedC.voted for him to give him a chance to fulfil his dreamD.voted for Bradley because they trust him61.Bradley hit the front page headline for _____.A.he was the first black mayor in historyB.he was the first black mayor in the south of USAC.he was the first black mayor of one of the largest cities in USAD.a poor farmer’ s son could also win an important election62.From Bradley’ s victory in the election we can see that _____.A.blacks had equal rights as white in the USAB.black people’ s situation began to be improving much more than beforeC.one can be successful through hard work in US no matter what color you areD.it is sure that someday US will have a black presidentCThe Internet has led to a huge increase in credit-card(信用卡）fraud. Your card information could even be for sale in an illegal Website(非法网站）. Websites offering cheap goods and services should be regarded with card. On line, shoppers who enter their credit-card information may never receive the goods they thought they bought.The thieves then go shopping with your card number—or sell the information over the Internet.Computer hackers(黑客）have broken down security(安全）system, raise questions about thesafety of card-holder information.Several months ago, 25 000 customers of CD universe, an on-line music retailer(批发商), were not lucky. Their names, addresses and credit-card numbers were posted on a Website after the retailer refused to pay US ＄157 828 to get back the information.Credit-card firms are now fighting against on-line fraud. Master-card is working on plans for Web-only credit-card, with a lower credit limit. The card could be used only for shopping on-line. However, there are a few simple steps you can take to keep from being cheated.Ask about your credit-card firm’s on-line rules:Under British law, cardholders are responsible(对……负有责任)for the first US ＄78 of any fraudulent spending.And shop only at secure sites:Send your credit-card information only if the Website offersadvanced secure system.If the security is in place, a letter will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of your screen. The Website address may also start http://—the extra “s”stands for secure. If in doubt, give your credit-card information over the telephone.Keep your password(密码）safe:Most on-line sites require a user name and password beforeplacing an order.

Xinhua reported that a fairly large number of foreign students who earned high scores in TOEFLexam turned out to be very ordinary educational performers after admission.Compared with the TOEFL, the APIEL measures a student’ s ability to read, write, speak and understand English through testing his or her skills in listening comprehension, speaking withaccuracy(精确）and resourcefulness, and writing with clarity and fluency(流畅）, Jen said.68.The United States will introduce a new exam because_____.A.more and more students want to get further education in the USAB.the Chinese people pay special attention to English studies with China’ s entry into the WTOC.the already existing exam systems seem to be far from perfectD.it will bring the US government quite a lot of money69.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the selection?A.It will take quite a period of time for people to accept the APIEL.B.The TOEFL is more popular with the Chinese than the IELTS.C.A student will have to take the APIEL if he or she wants to study in English-speaking countries from 2002.D.Chinese students will prefer the IELTS rather than the APIEL even in the future.70.The underlined word “current”in the second paragraph means _____.A.modemB.presentC.standardD.formal71.Please decide which of the following would be the best title for this news report.A.The Key to English-speaking CountriesB.The Four Skills in Learning EnglishC.TOEFL, IELTS and GRE to be Out of DateD.New Exam Designed for StudentsEIt would be pleasant to believe that all young girls in the past got married for romantic reasons; but the fact is that many of them regarded marriage as their only chance to gain independence fromtheir parents, to have a provider, or to be assured of a good place in society. A couple of generations ago, and old maid of twenty-five did not have much to look forward to, she was more or less fated to remain with her parents or to live in some relative’ s home where she would help with the chores and the children. Not so any more. In the first place, women remain young much longer than they used to, and an unmarried woman of twenty-eight or thirty does not feel that her life is over. Besides, since she is probably working and supporting herself, she is free to marry only when and if she chooses. As a result, today’s women tend(倾向）to marry later in life. They have fewer children—or none at all—if they prefer to devote themselves to their profession. The result is decline in the birthrate.The new role that women have developed for themselves has changed family life. Children are raised differently; they spend more time with adults who are not their parents:baby sitters, day-care center personnel, relatives, or neighbors. Whether they gain or lose in the process is a hotly debated question. Some child experts believe that young children must spend all their time with their mother if they are to grow sound in body and mind. Others think that children get more from a mother who spends with them “quality time”(a time of fun and relaxation set aside for them) rather than hours of forced and unhappy baby sitting. And many child psychologists point out that children kept in day-care centers every day are brighter than those raised at home. No matter what it is, one thing about child raising to be certain of is that the longer the child is with the mother, the better.72.It can be concluded from the passage that _____.A.women today have developed a new role in family lifeB.the birthrate is declining as a result of women’ s pursuit(追求）of careersC.women have always been dependent(依赖）on their parents even after marriageD.children must spend all their time with their mother if they are to grow sound73.The change in women’ s attitude towards marriage results in all of the following EXCEPT _____.A.more and more women quit(leave) jobs to take care of their children at homeB.women today tend to marry later than they didC.women have less time to raise childrenD.more and more families remain childless74.People have different opinions over the question as to _____.A.how children should be raisedB.where children should be raisedC.whether children should stay with their parentsD.how long children should stay with their parents75.The author suggests that _____.A.working women should not have childrenB.children should be kept in day-care centers all the timeC.young children should stay with their mother as long as possibleD.women should leave their work to look after their children at home第二卷(共35分)第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35第一节：短文改错（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）Nobel’ s father wanted Alfred to stop working in theliboratory.
