Australia and the United States are about equal in size, and neither of their western lands are rich in soil. It was along the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled,

Whenever I travel, I meet international leaders who have studied in Britain. These energetic, intelligent people chose Britain because we offer high quality higher education.

It is easier for our executives and our diplomats to do business with people __42__ with Britain. British exports of education and training are worth some eight billion pounds a year. Money feeds into our institutions and helps our __43__ to open up opportunities for more people to study. Our young people also __44__. They gain from the doors in the world which contact with international students. We can teach, but we can also learn from others. Nowadays, we are launching a long-term strategy to strengthen the United Kingdom as a first choice for the quality of study and the quality of our __45__ to international students. This will be a UK-wide and a Government-wide effort. We are __46__ a package of measures to help encourage students from overseas to study in the UK. We will offer international students more open doors. …

We have the measures in place, but we are also __47__ tough targets for recruitment(招募). We want to have 25 percent of the global market share of higher education students and we want to increase the number of international students studying in Further Education institutions by 100 percent.

III. Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.

The United States does not have a government office that regulates the film industry. Government, __51__, does link with the movie business in several ways.

In the United States, films generally come from two __52__ : large studios that produce many films and television programs each year and independent filmmakers, including both students and experienced filmmakers. Sometimes—through grants from universities or arts or humanities councils—independent filmmakers do receive __53__ indirectly from funding that originated with the local, state, or federal government, but more often funding comes from private investors or through charity organizations __54__ either promotion of arts or promotion of a cause being addressed by a film.

While there is no __55__ of film, there are many government offices that interact with the film industry. At the state and local levels, government film offices promote local film locations because use of their locale brings employment and other __56__ advantages to promote local tourist sites. These offices also help filmmakers work with the police and others to __57__ filming that impacts traffic, uses public buildings, or otherwise needs special consideration.

__58__, government organizations, especially the branches of the military, have offices that help coordinate（协调）filmmakers’ use of facilities, equipment, and even personnel. It would be __59__, for example, for a filmmaker to construct a make-believe aircraft carrier or to hire a cast of extras to be in the __60__ of a movie who look like real soldiers, sailors, airmen, or marines (whose haircuts, fitness levels, and posture are often different from that of civilian (群众) actors). The military is willing to make their facilities __61__, within reason, for approved projects, and each branch has an office that handles these requests. Other branches of the government __62__ requests to use public spaces and buildings, such as monuments or parks.

Many years ago, the U.S. government did produce quite a few feature films and worked closely with Hollywood on films that would encourage public morale during wartime. However, since World War II, these programs have been __63__ due to a combination of budgetary and philosophical concerns. The United States Information Agency, __64__, for many years produced films for exhibition to overseas audiences to complement its other educational programs. One such film, John F. Kennedy: Years of Lightning, Day of Drums, a posthumous contribution to the president, even won the 1965 Academy Award for best documentary. This __65__, now a part of the U.S. Department of State, no longer produces such feature films.

Section B

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

(A)

[1]“Maybe when I’m 90 years old, I’ll get used to having everything I do taken for granted,” a young homemaker told a secret to her neighbor, “If Bill would compliment me once in a while, he’d make my life much happier.”

[2] Few of us realize how much we need encouragement. Yet we must bask(沐浴于) in the warmth of approval now and then or lose our self-confidence.

[3]All of us need to feel needed and admired. But unless we hear words of praise from someone else, how can we know that we are valued friends or co-workers?

[4]Anyone who wants to improve his relationships with others need only show a sympathetic understanding. The way to express this understanding and to give others the feeling of importance and worthiness boils down to this: always look for something in the other person you can admire and praise and tell him about it.

[5]We each have a mental picture of ourselves, a self-image. To find life reasonably satisfying, that self-image must be one we can live with, one we can like. When we are proud of our self-image, we feel confident and free to be ourselves. We function at our best. When we are ashamed of our self-image, we attempt to hide it rather than express it. We become hard to get along with.

[6] A miracle happens to the person whose self-pride has been raised. He suddenly likes other people better. He is kinder and more cooperative with those around him. Praise is the polish that helps keep his self-image bright and sparkling.

[7]What has this to do with your giving praise? A lot. You have the ability to perform that kind of miracle in another person. When you add to his self-pride, you make him want to like you and to cooperate with you.

[8]In a classic bit of advice, Lord Chesterfield suggested to his son that he should follow the example of the Duke de Nivernoise: “You will recognize that he makes people pleased with him by making them first pleased with themselves.”

[9]The effects of Praise can be great indeed. A new minister called to a church whose members

were jokingly referred to as “a refrigerator”by other ministers decided against criticizing his people for their coolness toward strangers. Instead, he began welcoming visitors and telling them how friendly the members of the church were. Things gradually changed. “Praise transformed the ice-cube members into warmhearted human beings,” he said.

66. From paragraph [1] and paragraph [2] we can learn that .

A. the young homemaker had a thirst for Bill’s praise

B. the neighbor reminded Bill to compliment the homemaker

C. it is well-known that we all need encouragement very much

D. getting other people’s approval leads to losing self-confidence

67. According to the passage, we become difficult to get on with probably because .

A. we want to show our self-image

B. we are not satisfied with our self-image

C. a miracle happens to other people

D. we are ashamed of being praised

68. The example in paragraph [8] tells us that .

A. Lord Chesterfield advised his son to praise the Duke de Nivernois

B. the Duke de Nivernois made Lord Chesterfield pleased with his son

C. praising other people will help win other people’s compliment

D. receiving words of praise should go before praising other people

69. In paragraph [9], “a refrigerator” was quoted probably because .

A. it was always freezing cold in the church

B. the new minister criticized his people coolly

C. the church took the shape of a refrigerator

D. the members of the church were unfriendly to strangers

(B)

Is Aquaponics the Future of Food?

(C)

The late 1980s found the landscape of popular music in America dominated by a distinctive style of rock and roll known as glam rock or hair metal—so called because of the over-styled hair, makeup, and clothes worn by the style’s shining rockers. Bands like Poison, Whitesnake, and Motley Crue popularized glam rock with their power songs and flashy style, but the product had worn thin by the early 1990s. Just as superficial as the 80s, glam rockers were shallow, short on substance, and musically inferior.

In 1991, a Seattle-based band called Nirvana shocked the corporate music industry with the release of its first single, “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” which quickly became a huge hit all over the world. Nirvana had simply mainstreamed a sound and culture that got its start years before with bands like Mudhoney, Soundgarden, and Green River. Grunge(垃圾) rockers derived their fashion sense from the youth culture of the Pacific Northwest: a mixing of punk（鬅客）rock style and outdoors clothing like heavy boots, worn out jeans, and so on. At the height of the movement’s opportunity, when other Seattle bands like Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains were becoming popular, the trappings of grunge were working their way to the height of American fashion. Like the music, the teenagers were fast to accept the grunge fashion because it represented rebellion against shallow pop culture.

The popularity of grunge music was momentary; by the mid- to late-1990s, its influence upon American culture had all but disappeared, and most of its recognizable bands were nowhere to be seen to the charts. The heavy sound and themes of grunge were replaced on the radio waves by boy bands like the Backstreet Boys, and the bubblegum pop of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.

There are many reasons why the Seattle sound faded out of the mainstream as quickly as it rocketed to distinction, but the most glaring reason lies at the rebellion, anti-establishment heart of the grunge movement itself. It is very hard to resist the trend when you are the one setting it, and many of the grunge bands were never comfortable with the fame that was brought to them. Eventually, the simple fact that many grunge bands were so against mainstream rock stardom (明星地位) took the movement back to where it started: underground. The fickle American mainstream public, as quick as they were to hop on to the grunge bandwagon, were just as quick to hop off and move on to something else.

74. Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?

A. The landscape of popular music was dominated by rock and roll from 1980.

B. The rock and roll formed a distinctive style just because of the over-styled hair.

C. Glam rock became popular with the help of Poison, Whitesnake and Britney Spears.

D. Glam rockers were shallow, short on substance, and their music was humble.

75. It was not long before teenagers welcomed grunge fashion because _________.

A. it would represent the youth culture

B. grunge rockers told them to accept it

C. they were tired of Glam Rock fashion

D. it resisted the shallowness of pop culture

76. What is the difference between glam rock and grunge rock?

A. Glam rock was flashier, while grunge rock was rebellious.

B. Glam rock appealed to teenagers, while grunge rock appealed to adults.

C. Glam rock faded quickly, while grunge rock is still popular.

D. Glam rock was more commercially successful than grunge rock.

77. What is the writer trying to document in this passage?

A. The popularity of glam rock.

B. Nirvana’s role in popularizing grunge rock.

C. The rise and fall of grunge rock.

D. The reasons why young people loved grunge rock.

Section C

Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.

By the mid-19th century most of Europe was in the first stage of the demographic(人口的) transition. Death rate had decreased, as wars, famines(饥荒) and diseases had; local food shortages were rarer, thanks to better economic organization and transport; public health, medical care and the control of infectious diseases had improved. The population increased rapidly, as Malthus had predicted. Between 1800 and 1900 Europe’s population doubled, to over 400 million, whereas that of Asia, further behind in the demographic transition, increased by less than 50%, to about 950 million.

But something else was happening there that would have taken Malthus by surprise: as people came to expect to live longer, and better, they started to have fewer children. They realised they no longer needed several babies just to ensure that two or three would survive. And as they moved from country to town, they also found that children were no longer an economic property that could be set to work at an early age, but a responsibility to be fed, housed and (some of them) educated, for years. Worse, with too many children, a mother would find it hard to take and keep a job, to add to the family income. Nor were the young any longer a guarantee against a poor old age: in the new industrial society, they were likelier to go their own way.

Thanks to Europe’s newborn limitation, in the past 100 years or so its population has risen only 80%, to 730 million, and most countries’birth rate is now so low that numbers are unchanging or falling. But their composition is very different from the past: better living standards, health condition and medical treatment are multiplying old heads, even as the number of young ones shrinks.

In contrast, Asia’s population over the same time has nearly increased four times, to more than 3.6 billion. North America’s too has grown almost as fast, but largely thanks to immigration. Africa’s has multiplied 5 times, and Latin America’s nearly sevenfold.

Why these differences? From around 1950, death rate in developing countries also began to fall, and much faster than it ever had in Europe. The knowledge about how to avoid premature death of small children travelled so readily that life expectancy in many poor countries is now not far behind the rich world’s. But the attitudes and values that persuade people to have fewer children are taking longer to adjust.

(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)

78. What prediction did Malthus make?

79. Give one reason to explain why people started to have fewer children according to paragraph

2.

80. Besides medical treatment, are the other two factors that contribute to the

increasing number of old people.

81. Why has the population in developing countries increased faster than it has in Europe in the

last century?
