III. Reading Comprehension (30%)

Directions: 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 on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.

If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children. But how you say it can be quite tricky.

If you say to your children “I’m sorry I got angry with you, but …” what follows that“but” can render the apology ineffective: “I had a bad day” or “your noise was giving me a headache ” leaves the person who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior in expecting an apology.

Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say “I’m sorry you’re upset”; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.

Then there is the general, all covering apology, which avoids the necessity of identifying a specific act that was particularly hurtful or insulting, and which the person who is apologizing should promise never to do again. Saying “I’m useless as a parent” does not commit a person to any specific improvement.

These pseudo-apologies are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness. Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not resort to these pseudo-apologies.

But even when presented with examples of genuine contrition, children still need help to become aware of the complexities of saying sorry. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology.

A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children’s expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that raiding the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent’s clothes without permission is not.

46. If a mother adds “but” to an apology, _______.

A) she doesn’t feel that she should have apologized

B) she does not realize that the child has been hurt

C) the child may find the apology easier to accept

D) the child may feel that he owes her an apology

47. According to the author, saying “I’m sorry you’re upset” most probably means “_______”.

A) You have good reason to get upset

B) I’m aware you’re upset, but I’m not to blame

C) I apologize for hurting your feelings

D) I’m at fault for making you upset

48. It is not advisable to use the general, all-covering apology because _______.

A) it gets one into the habit of making empty promises

B) it may make the other person feel guilty

C) it is vague and ineffective

D) it is hurtful and insulting

49. We learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry _______.

A) the complexities involved should be ignored

B) their ages should be taken into account

C) parents need to set them a good example

D) parents should be patient and tolerant

50. It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is _______.

A) a social issue calling for immediate attention

B) not necessary among family members

C) a sign of social progress

D) not as simple as it seems

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

Keiko loved London ----- the shops, the entertainment and the low prices. English weather though was one thing that trouble her. Every time she went out she felt under the weather.

In one hour the weather could change from cloud and rain to warm sunshine and back again. She never knew what to wear. In Japan there are typically four seasons and she always knew what weather to expect. When winter came she would carefully put away her husband’s summer suits and she would never let him wear them again until June 1st, no matter how hot it became. But in England

she had to have all the clothes at hand all the time in case the weather changed.

She was always annoyed when she went to her English conversation lessons with Mr. Boyd because she was either over-dressed or underdressed. Mr. Boyd was an elderly teacher who didn’t encourage students to call him by his first name and Keiko liked that. She asked him about the weather problem. Mr. Boyd said, “The weather is a good topic to use in conversation and can help to break the ice. If you don’t what to say next, you can always say something about the weather.”

This was true because Keiko had noticed the many times Mr. Boyd had talked about the weather to her. Mr. Boyd was very unusual in his habits and always carried an umbrella even in the sunniest weather. All the teachers and students made fun of him about it. “You never can tell,”he always said. As she was about to leave the school one day Keiko was angry to see that the sunny day had turned to rain. She had neither a coat nor an umbrella. Mr. Boyd smiled as he passed her in the school doorway and putting up his umbrella said, “Every cloud has a silver lining!”

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.

Although Tomas Jefferson did not begin the effort of designing the University of Virginia until late in his life, the education of the common man had occupied his thoughts for decades. He believed ignorance to be the enemy of freedom, and he wanted to correct what he considered to be the weakness of educational institutions modeled on European settings. He imagined that an “academical village” around a tree-lined lawn would provide an

ideal setting in which to pursue higher education. The center of such a village would be a Temple of Knowledge that would house the university library.

When Virginia decided to set up a state university in 1818, the retired U. S. President finally was able to devote his talent, time, and energy to creating this new kind of educational institution. By the time he was finished with his design, Jefferson had invented an entirely new American setting for higher education: the college campus.

In 1812, Jefferson chose to begin building his “academical village,”the University of Virginia, in Charlottesville, VA, far away from the city center. He intended this spot to promote learning because it was natural and unspoiled, and far from anything that could distract or harm the students. The University consists of two rows of houses, five on each side, leading to a main building. This main building, the Rotunda, became the most important part of the University, because it contained the library. By focusing his entire institution on the library, instead of around the church, Jefferson revolutionized American university architecture.

Jefferson’s aim was to create a new institutional form for his ideal educational system, a system he thought should give every citizen the information he needs for carrying out his daily business. This new approach to citizenship and education demanded a new type of university, one where students and professors could coexist and share ideas. He attempted to create this environment by combing the professors’houses and students’classrooms, and linking all the buildings with covered walkways so intellectual exchanges between departments could go on smoothly. Jefferson had also recognized the importance of the students’ whole life, and given much thought and planning to the students’ dining, living, and exercise facilities.

56. Jefferson devoted much of his thought to the education of the common man because he believed ________.

A. everyone who loved freedom hated ignorance.

B. a country could not be strong without education.

C. an uneducated man could not gain full freedom.

D. European educational institutions did not suit America

57. According to Jefferson, the center of a university should be ______ .

A. the church

B. the library

C. the lawn

D. the classroom

58. Jefferson chose o locate the University of Virginia far away from the city center because ________.

A. land in the city center could not be found.

B. there was a tree-lined lawn there

C. this was a European tradition

D. there was no distraction for the students.

59. In Jefferson’s view, an ideal educational system should _________.

A. be one under which every citizen enjoys equal opportunity.

B. give everyone the information he needs for conducting his business.

C.ensure that everyone has a chance to enter an institution of higher learning.

D. provide students with a natural and unspoiled setting for learning.

60. What was made easy by the revolutionized American campus?

A. Students’ learning.

B. Intellectual exchange

C. Professors’ teaching

D. Both students’ and professors’ life.

IV. Translation(10%)

When dad told us about the delivery work it sounded easy, just a piece of cake. The trouble was, we didn’t take care to inquire just how much material was involved. Before long trucks seemed to be pulling up outside our house all day long, leaving stacks of advertising. It seemed we should have no chance of meeting the deadline. The we had this marvelous idea. Hiring local kids to help would enable us to get the job done on time. True, it would cut into our profits, but there was no alternative. things seemed to be going well, but then we had trouble over a pay claim. Our workers demanded five dollars an hour, but fortunately for us they were ready to settle for less. As for us, when we finally settled our accounts we ended up earning less than the minimum wage for our efforts. I guess we should have know better than to believe that big bucks come easy. While it is often said that love makes the world go round, scientists take a less romantic view. To their minds, energy is the fundamental force at work. All animal life is dependent on obtaining sufficient energy from food. Deer, like other wild animals, do this through eating as much food as possible in the summer, when food resources are abundant. Any excess of energy over their current needs is deposited in the body in the form of fat. Then, when food becomes scarce in the winter, they can live off the fat. In addition, nature helps them to survive the winter by slowing down their metabolism, assisting them to pull through the cold weather. However, when the winter is particularly harsh, deer may have to draw on the fat they have built up more heavily. Under such conditions, only deer in good condition are able to survive to give birth to a new generation. In his essay George Orwell starts off by citing Bernard Shaw’s remark that people are more superstitious today than they were in the Middle Ages. They promptly accept the opinions of experts without asking any questions themselves. Obviously Shaw exaggerates just in order to prove his point that we should not always fall back on the theories of well-known authorities. Rather, we should aim at finding out some things for ourselves. By way of illustration, Orwell outlines arguments against the Flat Earth and the Oval Earth theories, thus throwing light on the fact that much of our knowledge actually rests on authority rather than on reasoning or on experiment. Finally, Orwell draws his conclusion that ours is a credulous age partly because we have such an exceptionally heavy burden of knowledge. The last time Lyz saw her husband was as he waved goodbye to her from the steps of their house. He was due to fly off on business later that day. Unluckily for him his flight was cancelled and he found himself having to take United Flight 93 the following day. It was from on board that ill-fated flight that he telephoned with the news that hijackers had threatened to blow up the aircraft. Cursing his bad luck, he nonetheless realized that his fate was in his own hands. Hoping that the terrorists were bluffing when they claimed to have a bomb, he and some other passengers decided to act. Without hanging up, he set off with the others to attack the hijackers. From the telephone came the sound of screams. Then silence.
