Passage one

I was born in the city of York, in England, in the year 1632. 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 buy my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of rambling, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. My father gave me strong and earnest counsel 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 prompted me to go with him, and in an evil hour, without asking God's blessing or my father's, I went on board.

On the way to London, a storm arose, the ship was wrecked, and we barely escaped with our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a vessel which traded to the coast of Africa. He took a fancy to me, and offered me a chance to go with him on his voyages, which I gladly accepted.

A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed 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. In this distress we launched a boat. After we had been driven four or five miles, a raging wave struck us so furiously that it overset the boat at once. Though I swam well the waves were so strong that I was dashed against a rock with such force that it left me senseless. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely.

Passage two

Some people have it easy. When their kids ask them what they do at work, they can give a simp1e direct answer: “I put out fires” or” “I fix sick peop1e” or” “I teach primary schoo1”. As a theoretica1 physicist, I never had this 1uck . Society has come to expect many things from the physicist. 1t used to be that me on1y bad to discover the basic 1aws of the wor1d and supp1y the techniques that wou1d power the next of things we think we know how to do. What makes us uncomfortab1e-and what makes it hard for us to te11 our kids what we’ re up to-is that in this century we have become, though unwi11ing1y, gurus on questions such as “what is the nature of Rea1ity (现实) ?”

We now deal with a whole new c1ass of prod1ems .We ask how the wor1d began and what is the nature4 of matter. The answers we are coming up with are just not easy to comprehend for the average person.

So, when physicists get out of their cars in the morning, have a cup of coffee and sit down in front of their computers, they 1eave a fami1iar wor1d and enter a p1ace where things act in of strange ways that are impossid1e for ordinary peop1e to understand.

6.According to the passage, in a way physicists are

A. intel1igent

B. comfortad1e

C. strange

D. un1ucky

7. Judging from the context, the word: “gurus” in the first paragraph most probab1y means a person.

A.who acts as a teacher and answers big questions

B.who gives wrong answers to big questions

C.who does not 1ike to answer big questions

D.who is eager to supp1y answers to big questions

8. Which of the fo11owing is true according to what the author says about physicists?

A.physicists do not 1ike their job.

B.Physicists 1ive in two different wor1ds.

C.Physicists are coming up with new answers to o1d questions.

D.Physicists don’t have to te11 peop1e what they are doing.

9. Which of the fo11owing statement is true?

A.Theoretica1 physicists on1y have to answer the basic questions about the wor1d.

B.Theoretica1 physicists contributed do the new industry on Si1icon Va11ey.

C.Theoretoca1 physicists have disappointed the expectations of many peop1e.

D.Theoretica1 physicists have found it hard to friends with ordinary peop1e.

10. Which of the fo11owing is true shout the job of physicists?

A.It is getting more and more difficu1t.

B.It is beyond the comprehension of ordinary peop1e.

C. A person with average inte11igence can not do it.

D. Both A and B.

答案：1.B 2.A 3.D 4.C 5.B 6.D 7.A 8.B 9.B 10.B

Passage one

A couple of years ago I spent the day at an elementary school in New Jersey. It was a nice average school, a square and solid building, full of reasonably well-behaved kids from middle-class families. I handled three classes, and by the time I staggered out the door I wanted to lie down for the rest of the day.

Teaching’s the toughest job there is. In his new memoir, “Teacher Man,” Frank McCourt recalls telling his students, “Teaching is harder than working on docks and warehouses. ” Not to mention writing a column. I can stare off into the middle distance with my chin (下巴) in my hand any time. But you go mentally south for five minutes in front of a class of fifth graders, and you are sunk.

The average new teacher today makes just under $30,000 a year, which may not look too bad for a twenty-something with no mortgage (抵押贷款) and no kids. But soon enough the new teachers realize that they can make more money and not work anywhere near as hard elsewhere. After a lifetime of hearing the old legends about cushy (舒适安逸的) hours and summer vacations, they figure out that early mornings are for students who need extra help, evenings are for test corrections and lesson plans, and weekends and summers are for second and even third jobs to try to pay the bills.

According to the Department of Education, one in every five teachers leaves after the first year, and almost twice as many leave within three. If any business had that rate of turnover, someone would do something smart and strategic to fix it. This isn’t any business. It’s the most important business around, the gardeners of the landscape of the human race.

Unfortunately, the current way of dealing with problems in education is taken directly from business practice, and it’s a terrible fit. Instead of simply acknowledging that starting salaries are woefully low and committing to increasing them and finding the money for reasonable recurring raises, politicians have wasted decades talking about something called merit pay (奖励工资). It’s a concept that works fine if yo u're making toys, but kids aren’t toys, a nd good teaching isn’t an assembly line.

1. What can we infer from the first paragraph about teachers?

A. They have to teach three classes at a time.

B. They have a very rewarding job.

C. They prefer to teach children from middle-class families.

D. They have a very hard job to do.

2. Why does the author say teaching is tougher than writing a column?

A. Teaching is like working on docks and warehouses.

B. Teaching demands full attention.

C. Teachers have to work with children.

D. Teachers have no chance to go traveling.

3. What do new teachers find out after some practice?

A. Their starting salary is lower than offered by other occupations.

B. They have to work during vacations to make ends meet.

C. They have to plan their time well to get everything done.

D. They can take a second or even a third job besides teaching.

4. We can infer from the fourth paragraph that the author thinks __________.

A. measures should be taken to keep teachers in their jobs

B. the rate of turnover in teaching is low compared to other occupations

C. it’s natural for a number of teachers to quit in three to five years

D. it’s fair to call teachers the gardeners of the landscape of the human race

5. What does the author think of merit pay?

A. It will make up for teachers’ low starting salaries.

B. It will bring down the turnover rate of teachers.

C. It is a good fix for current educational problems.

D. It is not suitable for the teaching profession.

Passage two

I’m coming off this plane, and landing at London airport. I’m looking around for a middle-aged woman, my Aunt Penn, who I’ve seen in pictures. The photographs are out of date, but she looked like the type who would wear a big necklace (项链) and flat shoes, and maybe some kind of narrow dress in black or gray. But I'm just guessing since the pictures only showed her face.

Anyway, I’m l ooking and looking and everyone’s leaving and there’s no signal on my phone and I'm thinking, “Oh great, I'm going to be abandoned at the airport so that's two countries they don't want me in,” when I notice everyone’s gone except this kid who comes up to me and says, “You must be Daisy.” And when I loo k relieved he does too and says. “I’m Edmond.”

“Hello Edmond,”I say, “nice to meet you.” I look at him hard to try to get a feel for what my new life with my cousins might be like.

Now let me tell you what he looks like before I forget because it's not exactly what you'd expect from your average fourteen-year-old what with the cigarette and hair that looked like he cut it himself with a knife in the dead of night, but aside from that he's exactly like some kind of mutt, you know the ones you see at the dog shelter who are kind of hopeful and sweet and put their nose straight into your hand when they meet you with a certain kind of dignity and you know from that second that you're go ing to take him home? Well that’s him.

Only he took me home.

I’ll take your b ag, he said, and even though he’s about half a mile shorter than me and has arms about as thick as a dog leg, he grabs my b ag, and I grab it back and say “Where's your mom, is she in the car?”

And he smiles and takes a drag on his cigarette, which, even though I know smoking kills

and all that, I think is a little bit cool, but maybe all the kids in England smoke cigarettes? I don’t say anything in case it’s a well-known fact that the smoking age in England is something like twelve and b y making a big thing about it I’ll end up looking like an idiot when I’ve barely been here five minutes. Anyway, he says. “Mum couldn't come to the airport because she's working, and everyone else seemed to be somewhere else, so I drove here myself.”

6. Daisy flew to London to ________.

A. see England

B. live with her aunt

C. meet Edmond

D. visit a friend

7. Before Edmond greeted her, Daisy felt ________.

D. he was looking for a middle-aged woman

9. What did Edmond look like in Daisy’s eyes?

A. An average 14-year-old.

B. A lost dog.

C. An old friend.

D. A man with dignity.

10. Daisy did not make any comment about Edmond smoking because _______.

A. she knew all children in England smoke cigarettes

B. she thought smoking did harm to one's health

C. the smoking age in England is about twelve

D. she did not want to make a fool of herself

Passage three

Today people can use the phone to talk with others almost anywhere on the earth. But when you use the phone, you don’t see the person you are talking with. That may change in the near future.

Today some people are using a kind of telephone called the picture phone or vision phone. With it, two people who are talking can see each other.

Picture phones can be useful when you have something to show the person you’re calling. They may have other uses in the future. One day you may be able to ring up a library and ask to see a book.

Then you’ll be able to read the book right over your picture phone. Or you may be able to go shopping through your picture phone. If you see something in the newspaper that you think you want to buy, you’ll go to your phone and call the shop. People at the shop will show you the thing you’re interested in right over the phone.

“It’s over! Thank goodness! ”

School was over and I was tired . I sat at the front of the school bus.

Janie , the driver , tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere （气氛）by striking the match of talks . I try to listen politely, but usually I am too busy thinking about my day. On this day , however , her talk was worth （值得）listening to .

“My father’s ill , ”she said to no one in particular （特别地）. I could see worry in her eyes .

I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students with a smile.

With a sudden change of interest, I asked, “What’s wrong with him? ”

With her eyes wet and her voice unusual, she answered, “Heart trouble.”Her eyes lowered as she continued. “I’ve already lost my mum, so I don’t think I can stand losing him.”I couldn’t answer. My heart ached for her.

I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain （痛苦）my own mother was thrown into when her father died . I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that.

Suddenly I realized （意识到）Janie was n’t only a bus driver , that was just her job . She had a whole world of family and cares too.

I suddenly felt very selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant.

Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: In this section there are four passages followed by a total of 15 multiple-choice questions. Read the passages carefully and then write your answers on your ANSWER SHEET. Passage One You may not have thought of it just this way, but the letter you write is part of you, and expression of your personality. Therefore to write letters that are mere patterns of form is to present a colorless personality. Letters, by their very nature, are too individual to be standardized. A letter may be absolutely perfect according to the standards of good taste and good form; but unless it also expresses something of the writer’s personality, it is not a good letter. In other words, don't be satisfied to write letters that are just correct and nothing more. Try to write letters that are correct for you... letters that are warm and alive with reflections of your own personality. And if this sounds like a platitude (陈词滥调), stop for a moment and think back over your recent correspondence. What was the most interesting letter you received? Was it a letter anyone could have written? Or was it a letter that instantly “came alive”as you read it—that brought the personality of the sender right into the room with you.

He was acknowledging one of our most distinctive characteristics：the fact that we are social animals whose behavior and personalities are shaped by the groups to which we belong. Throughout life，most of our daily activities are performed in the company of others. Whether our purpose is working，playing，raising a family，learning，or simply relaxing，we usually pursue it in groups，even if the group is as small as two or three people. Out need for human contacts is not merely a practical one；it is a deep psychological need as well. If people are deprived of the company of others for prolonged periods，mental breakdown is the usual result. Even the Geneva Convention（日内瓦公约），an international agreement that regulates the treatment of prisoners of war，recognizes this need. It regards solitary （孤独的）imprisonment for more than thirty day as a cruel form of torture（折磨）。 In its strictest sense， a group is a collection of people interacting together in an orderly way on the basis of shared expe ctations about one another‘s behavior. As result of this interaction，members feel a common sense of“belonging.”They distinguish members from nonmembers and expect certain kinds of behavior from outsiders. 21.By“No man is an island，”John Donne means _____. A.no one can live on an island alone B.a man is not surrounded by sea on all sides C.a man and an island are irrelevan D.no one can live in isolation from other people 22.The fact that we work or even play in groups illustrates the point that ____. A.poeple are different from animals B.Donne recognized the group to which he belonged C.human beings are social animals D.human behavior and personalities are formed by others 23.“Breakdown”as used in Line 6，Paragraph 2 most probably denotes ____. A.separation B.collapse C.analysis D.function 24.According to the passage，what is NOT a characteristic of group？ A.There are at least two people in it. B.The members share some common grounds. C.The members work for one purpose. D.The members interact regularly with each other. 25.This passage is mainly about _______. A.the importance of human contacts B.pattens of human behavior C.the importance of human activities D.patterns of human society Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
