A well-dressed man entered a famous jewelry shop. He explained that he wished to buy a pearl for his wife' sbirthday. The price didn' t matter. Since business had been very good for him that year. After examining a nice black one that cost $5000, he paid for the pearl in cash, shook hands with the jeweler, and left.A few days later the man returned and said that his wife liked the pear so much that she wanted another one just like it. It had to be exactly the same size and quality, as she wanted a pair of earrings made, "Can you give me any advice on how to get such a pearl?” said the man. The jeweler regretfully replied, "I would say it's exactly impossible to find one exactly like that pearl.”The rich man insisted that the jeweler advertise in the newspapers, offering $ 25,000 for the matching pearl. Many people answered the advertisement but nobody had a pearl that was just right.Just when the jeweler had given up hope, a little old lady came into his store. To his great surprise, she pulled the perfect pearl from her purse. "I don't like to part with it," she said sadly, 〃l inherited it from my mother, and my mother inherited it from hers. But I really need the money."The jeweler was quick to pay her before she changed her mind. Then he called the rich man's hotel to tell him the good news. The man, however, was nowhere to be found.(1). The man said he wanted to buy a pearl for.A.his wifeB.his mother-in-lawC.his own motherD.no one(2). He paid $ 5,000 for the black pearl without bargaining because.A.he was very richB.he wanted to make the jeweler believe himC.he was anxious to get itD.his business had been successful(3). He told the jeweler to get him another pearl that must be.A.exactly the same size as the black onB.exactly the same quality as the black oneC.worth no more than $ 25,000D.exactly as big and nice as the black one(4). Many people answered the advertisement because they wanted.A.to see the perfect pearlB.to buy some beautiful pearls tooC.to get in touch with the rich manD.to sell their own pearl at a high price(5). The jeweler couldn' t find the man anywhere because.A.he died suddenly.B.he happened to be outC.he got $ 20,00 by cheating and had run away with the money.D.he wouldn't show up until the jeweler called him a second time.54.“The sea is the common possession of all nations. It belon gs equally to all. No one can take it entirely tothemselves; nor is it 'foreign' to any one."This was the decision of John Marshall, chief Justice of the United States from 1801 to 1835. It was made known as a basic rule of the sea that no one, and therefore everyone, owns the ocean. This means that outside territorial waters (the waters within three miles of a country's coast), the law is whatever nations agree on in peacetime and whatever the strongest navy powers can enforce in wartime.After the United States bought Alaska, Americans began to seize Canadians who were hunting seals outside Alaskan territorial waters. The Americans said that the seals were American possession because they often came into the Alaskan shores owned by the United States. International judges disagreed with this reasoning. In some cases, however, the special rights of a nation that makes good use of an open-sea area are recognized.(1). The idea that the sea “belongs equally to all" was put out by.A.an unwritten agreementB. a U.S. Supreme Court decisionC.an international conferenceD. a written agreement(2). The basic rule of the sea means that.A.any powerful nation may control the seaB.any area of the sea belongs to the nation closest to itC.no one has whole rights to the open seaD.no nation has any sea rights(3). International judges decided thatA.Canada had no sealing rights off AlaskaB.the Canadians could hunt the sealsC.the United States could own the sealsD.the Americans could not hunt the seals(4). Nations may obtain special rights on open waters by.A.overrunning those watersB.guarding the watersing the waters regularlyD.spreading out their territorial waters(5). The main idea of this passage is that.A.the rule of the sea was made known by John MarshallB.some nations are able to acquire special open-sea rights.C.every nation owns its territorial watersD.the laws of the sea should be set up by international agreements55.Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste. " "Drink Good Wet Root Beer." "Fill up with Pacific Gas. " Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning thetelevision set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you've traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it's fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的)or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you've got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there's a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you've sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the arm rest, even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.(1). According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A.Buses on the roadB.Films on televisionC.Advertisements on the billboardsD.Gas stations(2). What is the purpose of this passage?A.To give the writer's opinion about long bus tripsB.To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C.To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D.To describe the billboards along the road.(3). The writer of this passage would probably favorA.bus drivers who aren't recklessB.driving aloneC. a television set on the busD.no billboards along the road(4). The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because .A.the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB.they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in betweenC.the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD.both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.(5). The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are.A.excitingfortableC.tiringD.boring56.There are many different cultures in the world, and in each of them the children must learn agreat many things that are expected of everyone who participates effectively in that culture. These things are taken for granted by everyone who shares the culture. Indeed, the children begin to learn them before their linguistic skills(语言技巧)are far enough developed to understand a verbal description for what they are learning. This kind of learning has sometimes been called "imitation", but that is too simple an explanation for the complex processes that go on when a child learns what is normal and expected in his owncommunity. Most of the rules are communicated to the child non-verbally, and he adapts to them as if no other possibilities existed. They are much a part of him as his own body; he would no more question them than he would question the fact that he has two hands and has two legs and two feet, but only one head.(1). Children have to learn a large number of things which in their culture,A.are difficult for them to leanB.are regarded as especially important for themC.are regarded as normal by everyoneD.are good for them to learn(2). Children begin to learn things by.ing their linguistic skillB.understanding what they are learningC. communicating effectivelyD. imitating what others are doing(3) . The learning processes for the children are.A. complexB. simpleC. normalD. skilful(4) . Children accept the communication rules.A. thoughtfullyB. unconsciouslyC. cautiouslyD. choosingly(5) . Which of the following statement is correct?A. Children always ask why they have two handsB. Children learn all that they are expected through imitationsC. Children learn things faster than adultsD. Children adapt to the communication rules naturally三 Fill in the blanks with the proper form of the word given in the bracket.57. Scientists should be ( ) (respond) for the results of their work. 58.

The Civil War was still going on. There was much criticism of President Lincoln at the time. He was not at all popular. He had been invited to speak at Gettysburg only out of courtesy. The principal speaker was to be Edward Everett, a famous statesman and speaker of the day, Everett was a handsome man and very popular everywhere.It is said that Lincoln prepared his speech on the train while going to Gettysburg. Late that night, alone in his hotel room and tired out, he again worked briefly on the speech. The next day Everett spoke first. He spoke for an hour and 57 minutes. His speech was a perfect example of the rich oratory of the day. Then Lincoln rose. The crowd of 15.000 people at first paid little attention to him. He spoke for only nine minutes. At the end there was little applause. Lincoln turned to a friend and remarked, “I have failed again.” On the train back to Washington he commented sadly, “That speech was a flat failure, and the people are disappointed.”Some newspapers at first criticized the speech. But little by little, as people read the speech, they began to understand better. They began to appreciate its simplicity and its deep meaning. It was a speech which only Lincoln could have made.

There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see，hear，or read something，it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many，many books. And like a library，it’s organized（有条理的）.

《大学英语1》复习题APart I Reading Comprehension (40%)Section ADirections: There are 3 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 onthe best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecenter.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Trials are taking place in North America and Europe to test an electronic device which will prevent children from watching unsuitable programs on television.The device, known as a V-chip (the “v” stands for violence), allows parents to control their television set so that programs which are unsuitable for children cannot be watched on a particular television.The V-chip works by using an electronic code. When a program is broadcast, the signal from the television transmitter carries a code, which indicates the level of sex and/or violence in a particular program. The V-chip inside the television then examines the code for each program and blocks transmission of those programs which contain certain codes.Makers of the V-chip say that parents can be confident that their children will not be able to watch those programs which they decide are unsuitable.V-chip technology has attracted a lot of interest. President Clinton passed a law last year which will require all new televisions to be fitted with V-chips by 1998. And the European Parliament（欧洲议会）has included the V-chip in its new Directive on Broadcasting.But critics say that the system will not be fool-proof, and that children will find ways of getting around it. There are also concerns that foreign satellite television companies may not abide by the rules. Others say that if viewers come to rely on the V-chip, other controls on program content may start to be relaxed.1. According to the passage, V-chip technology enables parents to _____________.A) turn off the television when they are not homeB) test electronic devices that can take the place of the TV setC) keep inappropriate TV programs away from their childrenD) control the amount of time that their children spend on watching TV2. What do we learn from the passage about the electronic code?A) It shows the level of sex and/or violence in a particular program.B) It contains information about the television transmitter.C) It is the signal that is sent out by the V-chip.D) It is a computer program built in a TV set to examine the V-chip.3. The word “they ” in Paragraph 4 refers to ________________.A) makers B) parents C) children D) programs4. We can conclude from the passage that ________________________.A) President Clinton attracted a lot of interestB) a law had been passed to prohibit sex and violence on TVC) TV sets sold in American after 1998 are required to have V-chipsD) the European Parliament decided to import the V-chip technology from USA5. Critics of the V-chip were concerned that ____________________.A) children may not like the new technologyB) imported TV set may not have been equipped with V-chipsC) children may get addicted to the new technologyD) new problems may arise even if the V-chip worksQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.It is estimated that some seven hundred million people are unable to read and write, and there are probably two hundred and fifty million more whose level of attainment is so slight that it barely qualifies literacy (读写能力). Recently the attack on illiteracy has been stepped up. A world plan has been drawn up by a committee of UNESCO experts in Paris, as part of the UNESCO Nations Development Decade, and an international conference on the subject has also been held. UNESCO stresses that functional literacy is the aim. People must learn the basic skills of responsible citizenship: the ability to read notices, newspapers, timetables, letters, price-lists, to keep simple records and accounts, to sort out the significance of the information gathered, and to fill in forms.The major areas of illiteracy are in Asia, Africa, and Central and South America. In Africa there are at least one hundred million illiterates, comprising eighty to eighty-five per cent of the total population. In Europe the figure is about twenty-four million, most of them in Southern Europe, with Spain, Italy, Portugal, and Yugoslavia heading the list (the United Kingdom has about seven hundred thousand).6. Studying carefully the clues in the passage, we learn that the total population of Africa is .A) approximately seven hundred millionB) approximately one hundred and twenty-five millionC) approximately eight or eight point five thousand millionD) exactly twenty-four million7. The figure of illiteracy in Britain comprises .A) zero point one per cent of that of illiteracy in the worldB) zero point two per cent of the world adult populationC) thirty-five per cent of Europe’s populationD) three point five per cent of that of the illiteracy in Southern Europe8. It is obvious that UNESCO .A) is a company in FranceB) is a world organization attached to the U. N.C) works mainly at combating illiteracyD) has many experts whose level of attainment is far from literacy9. A world plan mentioned in the passage aims at .A) training responsible citizensB) enforcing the functions of UNESCOC) helping illiterates learn how to read and writeD) urging Southern European countries to take the lead in attacking illiteracy10. The author implies that this world plan is to .A) be carried out in the major areas of illiteracy like AfricaB) be realized in ten yearsC) be drawn up by Parisian expertsD) be debated at an international conferenceQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In the course of the late 1930s thousands of workers transformed an old garbage dump in the New York borough of Queens into the 1939-40 New York World’s Fair. For the price of a five-cent subway ride and seventy-five-cent admission fee, some fifty-seven attendees could sample personally “the wonders of contemporary life.”Since the middle of the nineteenth century, industrial states had held periodic expositions to showcase the goods produced by their nationals and by o thers. Although London’s Great Exhibition of 1851 had led the way, it was the French who were to produce such international displays of culture and machinery most frequently during the next half-century. American expositions tied the French example to the celebration of key historical anniversaries. The best-remembered example is the Chicago Exposition of 1893, which marked the four hundredth anniversary of Columbus’s arrival—one year late. The New York World’s Fair of 1939 was inspired by the 150th anniver sary of the inauguration (就职典礼) of George Washington.What took place at these showcases of modern architecture, national pride, and international commercial competition? The 1893 Chicago Fair boasted its entertainment “Midway” as well as scientific exhib its, and visitors to the New York Fair in 1939 may well have been more impressed by the simulated (模拟的) 250-foot parachute jump than by the first speech by a president to be shown on television, or the first color film for home movie cameras.11. How much did a ticket to the 1939-40 New York Fair cost?A) 5 cents. B) 57 cents. C) 75 cents. D) 80 cents.12. The word “showcase” in paragraph 2 probably means _______.A) be put in a case B) display C) purchase D) be bought13. Which nation organized most of the international exhibitions between 1850 and 1900?A) Great Britain. B) France. C) England. D) The United States.14. We can conclude from the passage that the four hundredth anniversary of Columbus’s arrival should have been celebrated in _______________.A) 1892 B) 1893 C) 1894 D) 189515. What was one important feature of the 1893 Chicago Exposition?A) Presidential speech. B) Historical conference.C) Athletic competition. D) Entertainment and scientific displays.Section BDirections:In this section there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Besure to write your answers on Answer Sheet (2).Teen smoking rates have been dropping since 1997, federal health officials report today, but more than a quarter of high school students still smoke cigarettes.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says roughly 29% of American high school students are smokers, down from 36% in 1997. The finding confirms other studies that show a decline in smoking in this age group. The trend is occurring across all race and age groups and in both boys and girls, says Terry Pechacek of the CDC's National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion. If trends continue, the report says, the national goal to reduce teen smoking rates to 16% or lower by 2010 is achievable.Pechacek attributes the decline to a 70% jump in the price of cigarettes from the end of 1997 to May 2001, along with expanded school, state and national smoking-prevention efforts. By 2000, the report says, 92% of the USA's school districts required tobacco-prevention education, and nearly half of middle and senior high schools hadno-smoking policies.To keep teen smoking rates on a downward path, Pechacek says, cigarette prices should continue to rise and smoking-prevention campaigns should expand. “We’ve got it going in the right direction,” he says, “but we can’t b e satisfied with what we have got. If we’re going to continue to decline, we’ve got to continue those efforts.” The data being released today are part of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey, a national school-based survey of 14,601 students in grades 9-12 that was conducted in spring 2001.SAQ 1. This report mainly discusses ____________________.SAQ 2. From 1997 to 2001, the smoking rate in America high school students has dropped by _____________ percentage point.SAQ 3. What did the US want to achieve in fighting teen smoking by the year 2010?SAQ 4.

What should be the next step to reduce teen smoking rate according to Pechacek?Part II Vocabulary and Structure (35 minutes, 45marks)Section ADirections:There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

The other sentences don’t contain an example ofthe schwa sound.5、Listen to the following sentence and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the others.A. appleB. bananaC. catD. fatherAnswer: CExplanation: The words “apple,” “banana,” and “father” are all pronounced with a short /æ/ sound. The word “cat,” however, is pronounced with a long /æ/ sound. Therefore, “cat” is the word that is pronounced differently.二、词汇与语法知识（本大题有15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1、The conference will be held in the auditorium____all the sports stars are expected to attend.A. whereB. whichC. thatD. asAnswer: A. whereExplanation: “Where” is used here as a relative adverb to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause. In this context, “where all the sports starsare expected to attend” describes the location of the auditorium. The use of “which” or “that” would make the clause restrictive, which is not requiredin this sentence.2、Despite the heavy rain, the workers___on time for the site meeting.A. had comeB. comeC. cameD. were comingAnswer: C. cameExplanation: “Came” is the past tense of the verb “to come,” fitting the past tense context of the sentence. “Had come” and “were coming” suggesta past perfect and continuous aspect, which is not required in this context. “Come” is th e simple present tense, which does not match the past tense indicator in the beginning of the sentence.3、Choose the word that does not belong in the following list:a)translate b) eventual c) elect d) renovateAnswer: c) electExplanation: The word “elect” is the odd one out because it means “choose” or “select,” whereas the other words are all related to the process of changing or transferring something. “Translate” means to convert words from one language to another, “eventual” refers to an outcome that wi ll happen eventually, and “renovate” means to repair, update, or improve something.4、Choose the correct past participle form of the verb in parentheses:The students__________(visit) the museum on the weekend.a)visited b) has visited c) having visited d) will visitAnswer: a) visitedExplanation: The correct past participle to use with the modal verb “have” and the past tense of the verb “visit” is “visited.” Therefore, the correct sentence is “The students visited the museum on the weekend.” Options b) and d) are incorrect because “has visited” is the present perfect tense and “will visit” is the future simple tense. Option c) “having visited” is incorrect as it seems to suggest an ongoing action, while the sentence is about a completed action.5、Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The speaker was___________by the audience, who cheered and applauded enthusiastically.A)ignoredB)admiredC)appreciatedD)overwhelmedAnswer: D) overwhelmedExplanation: The context of the sentence suggests that the speaker was positively affected by the audience’s reaction. “Overwhelmed” means to be affected emotionally in a very strong way, often with feelings of excitement or happiness. The other options do not fit the context as well: “ignored” means not paid attention to, “admired” means regarded with respect or approval, and“appreciated” means to be grateful for or to recognize the value of something.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses: Although the weather was terrible, the marathon runners___________(be) determined to finish the race.A)areB)wereC)isD)were beingAnswer: B) wereExplanation: The sentence describes an action that happened in the past. The phrase “Although the weather was terrible” sets the scene, and the main clause “the marathon runners” is referring to people who were running in the past. Therefore, the correct form of the verb to use is the past simple tense, “were.” The other options are incorrect because “are” is the present simple tense, “is” is the singular present tense, and “were being” is the past continuous tense, which does not fit the context of the sentence.7、He was told not to go abroad. As a result, he .A) has decided to stayB) decided to stayC) will decide to stayD) decides to stayAnswer: B解析：本题考查时态。

Read the following passages and do the questions below: (30%)Passage OneMr. Smith was a wealthy industrialist, but he was not satisfied with life. He did not sleep well and his food did not agree with him. This situation lasted for some time. Finally, after several sleepless nights, he decided to ask his doctor. The doctor advises a change of the place where he lives. “Go abroad,”he said. “But I’m not good at foreign language,”said Mr. Smith. “It doesn’t matter, said the doctor. “It won’t hurt you to talk a little less. Go on a voyage. Take plenty of exercise. Try to become thinner. A void rich food.”Mr. Smith went to Switzerland. He did not know French or German, and had to communicate through gestures. He attended a physical training course. The teacher made him bend his knees, wave his arms, and shake his head rapidly. He had to lie on the ground and raise his right and left legs one after another. After a time his muscles grew hard and firm. He forgot the problems in his business and the importance of raising the level of production. He even began to notice small trees and small birds.Finally he returned home. But unfortunately his improvement was only temporary. Soon he was a business man again, worried about his money, his work, his savings, his raising of level in a technological society, and things in general.1. Mr. Smith went to see his doctor because he ______.A.had little to eatB. was seriously illC.was afraid of sleeping at nightD. didn’t feel well2. The doctor advises Mr. Smith to do all the following except ______.A.talk lessB. change the surroundingsC. eat food of good qualityD. take plenty of exercise3. In the second paragraph, ―gestures‖ means _____________ .A.body movementsB. simple wordsC. pens or pencilsD. handshakes4.When he traveled abroad, Mr. Smith ______________ .A. learned boxingB. raised the level of productionC. forgot all about his businessD. shook his head all the time5. In the last paragraph, the word ―temporary‖ means ________ ./doc/b518665766.html,sting for a short timeB. not deepC. unimportantD. developing very slowlyPassage TwoCancer is among the top killer disease in our society today and scientists have found out that stress helps to bring it out. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do something about them.Are we under-employed, or overburdened with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure (休闲) in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be?All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations (失意) into the open. People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle up their feelings.If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that di sturb us are not worth an hour’s anger. The teaching inthe Bible “Let not the sun go down upon your wrath (愤怒)”is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religions.6. Which from the following statements is true?A.Freedom from responsibilities helps relieve stress.B.Stress is the direct cause of cancer.C.Cancer is the number one killer in our society today.D.The causes of stress are worthy of serious study.7. According to the passage, which of the following types of people is more likely to suffer fromstress?A. People who have more responsibilities than they can handle.B. People who have cancer.C.People who like to quarrel with others.D.People whose living standard is low.8. Judging from the context, the word ―row‖ in the third paragraph most probably means _______.A. a noisy quarrelB. a very loud noiseC. a neat line of things side by sideD. a journey in a boat.9. Which of the following is not mentioned as a way to reduce our stress?A. Changing our job.B. Reading the bible.C.Changing our attitude about little things that make us unhappy.D.Speaking out about our frustrations10.What does ―Let not the sun go down upon your wrath‖ probably mean?A. Don’t watch the sun set while you are angry.B.Don’t get angry easily about li ttle thing.C.Don’t let your anger last long.D.Don’t get angry while the sun is going down.Passage ThreeI worked as a manager for a number of years. I liked my job, and was doing well there, but our company was bought by a larger company and most of the managers at our place lost their jobs. That was when I decided to do something I’d always wanted to do – become a freelance (自由撰稿人) writer. Changing professions (职业) has meant that my lifestyle has changed in a number of ways.The main difference for me now is that I have a much more flexible (灵活的) schedule. I work about as much as I did before –between 45 and 50 hours a week – but my schedule is much less rigid than it used to be. Before, I worked from 8 to 5 every day, with a few extra hours on weekends. Now, however, I worked when I feel like it. For instance, sometimes I work until midnight or 2 A.M., then sleep until noon. I really prefer this kind of schedule. It seems more natural to me.I also decided that it was about time I began to pay more attention to my health. While I was working as a manager, I never exercised. I already felt tired after work, so I just came home in the evening and watched TV. However, last year I joined a health club and began to do regular exercise. As a result I have lost over 10 pounds and felt much better. I’ve also started to eat more healthfully. I used to eat a lot of fast food, but now I do my own shopping. I buy lots of fruits and vegetables and cook them at home.Of course, not all the changes have been that easy. Forexample, I don’t feel as secure financially as I used to. When I was working as a manager, I never worried much about money. I could always count on getting my paycheck every two weeks. Working freelance, I don’t have a regular paycheck. So now I have to make sure there’s enough money until the next arrives.All in all, I really like my current lifestyle. Of course, that doesn’t mean I’ll never want to have a ―regular‖ job. But for now, at least, it suits me.11. Why did the author decide to become a freelance writer?A. He had always liked writing.B. He was dissatisfied with his company.C. He never liked his job as a manager.D. He wanted to change his lifestyle.12. What is the main difference the job change brought to the author?A. He works fewer hours a week.B. He does not have to work as he likes.C. He can change his schedule as he likes.D. He can work at night and sleep late.13. Why does he do his own cooking now?A. He wants to lose weight.B. He has got lots of free time on his hands.C. He no longer feels tired after work.D. He wants to eat more healthfully.14. What is his chief problem now?A. He can’t count on his paycheck to arrive on time.B. He has no regular work to do.C. He has to find a publisher for his books.D. He has to worry about money.15. At the end of the passage, the author indicates that________.A. he is going to find a regular jobB. he is not going to change his lifestyle in the near futureC. he will continue to write for the rest of his lifeD. he will soon find out whether writing is a good career for him.Passage FourIn the eighteenth century young ladies in Italy were taught reading, writing, music and arithmetic. But their knowledge of history and geography was very poor.Once the French ambassador in Rome was giving a ball to which many important people were invited. The Italian Minister of foreign Affairs came very late. A young lady, who was well acquainted with him, saw him enter the ball-room and asked why he was so late.―Y ou see,: said the Minister, ―th ere has been a little accident at the King’s palace.‖The curious young lady asked the Minister to tell her what had happened at the King’s palace.―Oh, nothing important,‖ answered the Minister. ―The ambassador of Brazil, who was to be presented to the King, forgot to take his credentials with him and was obliged to go back to his hotel to bring them. If he had left them in brazil we should have had to wait at least six months for them.‖―Is Brazil so far from Rome?‖ asked the lady, who knew very little geography.―It is in the New World.‖ S aid the Minister.―In the New World?‖ repeated the lady in great astonishment.―Y es, in the New world.‖ Answered the Minister in a sarcastic tone, ―which was discovered by Christopher Columbus.‖When the young lady heard this, she rushed into the middle of the ball-room and shouted as loud as she could:―Ladies and gentlemen, have you heard the latest news? A new world has just beendiscovered by a certain Christopher Columbus.‖16.

My father was a man of some wealth, able to give me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. My father gave me strong advice against it, but with little effect. One day, being at Hull, I met a school-fellow who was about to sail for London in his father’s ship, and he invited me to go with him, and without telling my father, I went on board.On the way to London, a storm arose, the ship was wrecked (失事)，and we barely escaped with our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a vessel which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He took a fancy to me, and offered me a chance to with him on his voyages, which I gladly accepted.A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed ( 被颠簸) about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we struck a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we launched (使…下水) a boat. After we had been driven four or five miles, a mountainous wave struck us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. Though I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was dashed (被猛撞) against a rock with such force that it left me senseless. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and,running forward, go to the mainland safely.21. What did the author want to do most when he was young?A. To visit Africa.B. To sail the seas.C. To practice law.D. To make a tour of London.22. Why did the author go on foot to London?A. The ship he took was destroyed in a storm.B. His father did not supply the fare for the journey.C.

When the author got to the mainland, he _______.A. searched everywhere for his lost companionsB. fell down on the ground senselessC. was safe and soundD. ran forward to escape being washed back into the sea.25. When the author finally arrived on land, he most probably ______.A. knew he was in Africa` B. did not know where he wasC. was not aware he was back in EnglandD. got in touch with his family and asked for helpPassage SixTime talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time communicates in many ways.Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a special meaning to the event. Factory managers in the United States fully realize the importance of an announcement made during the middle of the morning or afternoon that takes everyone away from his work.In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very urgent and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it is a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstanding arises between people from cultures that treat time differently. In the Western world, particularly in the United States, people tend to think of time as something fixed in nature, something from which one cannot escape. As a rule, Americans think of time as a road or a ribbon stretching into the future, along which one progresses. The road has many sections, which are to be kept separate—―one thing at a time‖. Thus an American may feel angry when he has made an appointment with someone and then finds a lot of other things happening at the same time.Americans look ahead and are concerned almost entirely with the future. The American idea of the future is limited, however. It is the foreseeable future and not the future of theSouth Asians’,which may involve centuries. Someone has said of the South Asian idea of time: ―Time is like a museum with endless halls and rooms. The Gods is in charge of the museum, and only. He knows all that is in it.‖Since time has such different meanings in different cultures, communication is often difficult. We will understand each othera little better if we can keep this fact in mind.26. This passage is mainly about ______.A.the American idea of timeB.the South Asian idea of timeC.the importance of keeping appointmentsD.the communication between different culture27. According to this passage, an announcement made during the day in a factory must be veryimportant because ______.A.it interrupts the work of all employeesB.it is made by the managerC.it makes everyone lose his jobD.it communicates in many ways28. In the United States, a phone call made after 11:00 p.m. is considered ______ , in the view ofthe writer.A.more important than one made during the dayB.impolite since it disturbs the receiver’s sleepC.to be a threat to the receiver’s lifeD.even more urgent than one made early in the morning29. The writer concludes that people of different countries will understand each other better if______.A.they know how to communicate with each otherB.they are concerned with the futureC.they learn the way time communicatesD.they bear in mind that different cultures treat time differently30. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.The American idea of the future is quite different from that of the South Asian’.B.The South Asian regards time as something controlled by God.C.Americans are not concerned with the idea of the future which is limited.D.The South Asian idea of the future may go beyond one’s lifetime.VI.
