They invite friends for a meal, a party or even a cup of tea. Sometimes, how ever, people use expressions that sound like an invitation, but actually are not. For example, “ please come over for a drink sometime.” In fact , it is only just a polite way of ending a conversation. It is not a real invitation, because it does not contain a specific time or date. It just shows that the person who is speaking is friendly . So when you hear what sounds like an invitation , listen carefully.When you accept or reject an invitation, it is polite to show pleasure at receiving the invitation.

I hear that soon my local post office will arrange a program to have stamps sent to homes, so that I won’t have to visit the post office to buy stamps when I need them. What’s more, the post office will soon install a drive-through letterbox. That way, I will hardly have to stop my car to drop off mail.

Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Text AWhen I begin to look back on all friends whom I have had, I quickly came to the conclusion that Jerry was the most important and had the greatest effect upon my life. His family moved to my block when I was only 10. Jerry was 15 at the time, but the fact that he was so much older than me seemed to make no difference to him. I was very glad that he liked me. We took long walks together, on which he would tell me stories he had heard form TV and radio programs.But as months went by, a change came into our friendship. Jerry almost stopped coming by the house, and every time I went to his house or telephoned, he put me off with some excuses such as "I'm studying now" or "I've got some jobs to do for Mum". When we passed on the street, he would still give me a warm smile and friendly wave with a "Hi, kid", but he would hardly ever stop to talk. Finally Irealized that he was no longer interested in me and that his taste had changed. I noticed him with a girl once in a while and several times saw him going out in his family's car on a Friday or Saturday night. I simply couldn't understand what was so great about girls and parties.But I was hurt when he finally made me know that our friendship was at an end. Of course, he didn't really mean to hurt me, but it was a long time before I realized that it was an age problem that caused the break. There were a world of differences between the ideas and interests of a 17-year-old and a 12-year-old. Now that I’m over sixteen myself, I realized this, and the hurt I got then has become happy memories of the good times we were once together. I wonder if millions of other boys and girls have hada similar experience.66. When the writer and Jerry first met, Jerry was 5 years older than the writer.67. Their friendship lasted for a few years.68. Jerry stopped playing with the writer because he was busy with his study.69. When a change came in their friendship, the writer started going to parties with girls。

A build ing reflects the scientific and tech no logical achievements of the age as well as the ideas and aspirations of the designer and client. The appeara neeof individual build in gs, however, is often controversial.The use of an architectural style cannot be said to start or finish on a specific date? Neither is it possible to say exactly whatcharacterises a particular movement. But the origins of what is now generally known as modern architecture can be traced back to the social and technological changes of the 18th and 19th centuries.Instead of using timber, stone and traditional building techniques, architects began to explore ways of creating buildings by using the latest tech no logy and materials such as steel, glass and concrete st re ngthened steel bars, known as reinforced concrete. Technological advances also helped bring about the decline of rural industries and an increase in urban populations as people moved to the towns to work in the new factories. Such rapid and uncontrolled growth helped to turn parts of cities into slums.By the 1920s architects throughout Europe were reacting against the conditions created by industrialisation. A new style of architecture emerged to reflect more idealistic notions for the future. It was made possible by new materials and construction techniques and was known as Moder nism.By the 1930s many buildings emerging from this movement were designed in the I nternational Style. This was largely characterised by the bold use of new materials and simple, geometric forms, often with white walls supported by stilt-like pillars? These were stripped of unnecessary decoration that would detract from their primary purpose一to be used or lived in.Water Gropius, Charles Jeanneret (better known as Le Corbusier) and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe were among the most influential of the many architects who contributed to the development of Modernism in the first half of the century. But the economic depression of the 1 930s and the second world war(1939-45) prevented their ideas from being widely realized until the economicconditions improved and wartorn cities had to be rebuilt. By the 1 950s, the I nternational Style had developed into a universal approach to building, which standardized the appearance of new buildings in cities across the world?Unfortunately, this Modernist interest in geometric simplicity and function became exploited for profit? The rediscovery of quick-and-easy-to-handle reinforced concrete and an improved ability to prefabricate building sections meant that builders could meet the budgets of commissioning authorities and handle a renewed dema nd for development quickly and cheaply. But this led to many badly designed buildings, which discredited the original aims of Modernism.Influenced by Le Corbusier's ideas on town planning, every large British city built multi-storey housing estates in the 1 960s. Mass-produced, low-cost high-rises seemed to offer a solution to the problem of housing a growing inner-city population. But far from meeting human needs, the new estates often proved to be windswept deserts lacking essential social facilities and services? Many of these buildings were poorly designed and constructed and have since been demolished?By the 1 970s, a new respect for the place of buildings within the existing towenscape arose. Preserving historic buildings or keeping only their facades (or fronts) grew commoru Architects also began to make more use of building styles and materials that were traditional to the area? The architectural style usually referred to as High-Tech was also emerging? It celebrated scientific and engineering achievements by openly parading the sophisticated techniques used in construction. Such buildings arecommonly made of metal and glass; examples are Stansted airport and the Lloyd's building in London. Disillusionment at the failure of many of the poor imitations of Modernistarchitecture led to interest in various styles and ideas from the past and present? By the 1 980s the co-existenee of different styles of architecture in the same building became known as Post-Modern. Other architects looked back to the classical tradition. The trend in architecture now favours smaller scale building design that reflects a growing public awareness of environmental issues such as energy efficiency. Like the Modernists, people today recognize that a well designed environment improves the quality of life but is not necessarily achieved by adopting one well defined style of architecture.Twentieth century architecture will mainly be remembered for its tall buildings. They have been made possible by the development of light steel frames and safe passenger lifts. They originated in the US over a century ago to help meet the demand for more economical use of land? As construction techniques improved, the skyscraper became a reality.Ruth Cloem anSECTI ON B Multiple Choice Questions (1 5 points / 1 point each) Directions: Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the following questions. Put your answers A, B, C, or D in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneBeauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy. Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier, have better marriages and have more respectable occupations? Personal consultants give them better advice for finding jobs? Even judges are softer on attractive defendants? Butin the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were perceived as having more integrity than plainer men; effort and ability were thought to account for their success. Attractive female executives were considered to have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck? All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and to be more capable than the attractive female executives. Interestingly, though, the rise of the unattractive over night successes was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than was that of attractive overnight successes. Why are attractive women not thought to be able? An attractive woman is perceived to be more feminine and an attractive man more masculine than the less attractive ones. Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditionally female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine positions appears to lack the "masculine” qualities required ?This is true even in politics?"When the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differently/5 says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates?She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The stude nts were told the photographs were of can didates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked most attractive in variably receivedthe fewest votes.1. The word "liability”(Line 5, Paragraph 1) most probablymeans __________ ?A. misfortuneB. instability C? disadvantage D. burden2. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness ____________ .A. reinforce the feminine qualities requiredB? makes women look more honest and capableC. is of primary importance to womenD. often enables women to succeed quickly3. Bowman's experiment reveals that when it comes to politics, attractiveness一_________ .A. turns out to be an obstacle to menB. affects men and women alikeC. has as little effect on men as on womenD. is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women4. It can be inferred from the passage that people's views on beauty are often __________ .A. practical B? prejudiced C? old-fashioned D? radical5. The author writes this passage to ___________ .A. discuss the negative aspects of being attractiveB. give advice to job-seekers who are attractiveC. demand equal rights for womenD? emphasize the importance of appearancePassage TwoThere were two widely divergent influences on the early development ofstatistical methods? Statistics had a mother who was dedicated to keeping orderly records of governmental units (state and statistics come from the same Latin root, status) and agentlemanly gambling father who relied on mathematics to increase his skill at playing the odds in games of chance?The influence of the mother on the offspring, statistics, is represented by counting, measuring, describing, tabulating, ordering, and the taking of censuses 一all of which led to modern descriptive statistics? From the influence of the father came modern inferential statistics, which is based squarely on theories of probability.Descriptive statistics involves tabulating, depicting, and describing collections of data. These data may be either quantitative, such as measures of height, intelligence, or grade level 一variables that are characterized by an underlying continuum 一or the data may represent qualitative variables, such as sex, college major, or personality type? Large masses of data must generally undergo a process of summarization or reduction before they are comprehensible. Descriptive statistics is a tool for describing or summarizing or reducing to comprehensible form the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data?Inferential statistics is a formalized body of methods for solving another class of problems that present great difficulties for the unaided human mind. This general class of problems characteristically involves attempts to make predictions using a sample of observations? For example, a school superintendent wishes to determine the proportion of children in a large school system who come to school without breakfast, have been vaccinated for flu, or whatever. Having a little knowledge of statistics, the superintendent would know that it is unnecessary and inefficient to question each child; the proportion for the entire district could be estimated fairly accurately from asample of as few as 100 children. Thus, the purpose of inferential statistics is to predict or estimate characteristics of a population from a knowledge of the characteristics of only a sample of the population.6.
