Text I
No one knows exactly how many disabled (残废的) people there are in the
world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled
people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.


Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to
work or visit
friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to
buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or
could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder
to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It
is almost impossible for the able- bodied to fully appreciate what the severely
disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show
that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts.
46. The first paragraph points out that _________.
{ A J it is possible to get an exact figure of the world ' s disabled people

[C]
49. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?
[A] There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK.
[ B ] The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the
disabled people.
[ C ] Even the able- bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get
older.
[D] There still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from
ignorance.
50. It can be concluded from the passage that _____ __.
[A] we should try our best to prevent disablement
[ B] we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled
[C] the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled
[D] both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down --
Text 2
A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That' s the
finding of an extensive study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were
more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt
water fish per day than those who never ate fish.

The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific
backing to the longheld belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly
to the heart.
Heart disease is the nuinber-one killer in the United States, with more than
550,000 deaths oc- curring from heart attacks each year. But researchers previously
have noticed that the incidence ( 发生率) of heart disease is lower in cultures that
consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for
example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a
day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3
ounces.
For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of
whom ate no fish.
At the start of the study, the average fish consumption was about two-thirds of
an ounce each day with more men eating lean (瘦的) fish than fatty fish.
During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest
deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than
those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other
factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol ( 胆固醇) levels.
51. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
[A] The Dutch research has proved that eating fish can help to prevent heart
disease.
[ B] Heart doctors won't call your house so long as you keep eating fish each day.
[C] Among all the diseases heart disease is the most dangerous in America.
[D] There is a low incidence of heart disease in such countries as Japan and
Greenland.
52. The phrase
between

资格类考试专项资料蝼蚁大树收集整理

_________ and the incidence of heart disease.
[A] the amount offish eaten [B] regular fish-eating
[ C ] the kind of fish eaten [ D ] people of different regions
53. The passage is mainly about _________.
[ A ] the high incidence of heart disease in some countries
[ B ] the effect of fish eating on people ' s health
[ C] the changes in people' s diet
[D] the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures
54. Why is heart disease the most dangerous killer in the United States?
[A] Because American people drink too much spirits.
[B] Because there are a great number of fat people there.
[ C ] The author does n ' t give a definite answer.
[D] Because American people eat too much fatty fish.
55. How many lives could probably be saved each year in the United States by
eating fifth according to the Dutch study?
[A] 550,000. [B] 275,000.
LC] 110,000. [D] 852.
Text 3

Assertiveness is often wrongly confused with aggression (侵犯行为). An
aggressive confrontation is when one or both parties attempt to put forward their
feelings and beliefs at the expense of others. In an assertive confrontation, however,
each party stands up for their personal rights, but each shows respect and
understanding for the other's viewpoint.

In fact we all have a right to use assertive behaviour in a variety of situations.
We are often schooled early in life to believe that sometimes our own need to

12 16

privileged positions such as specialists, we often feel that speaking assertively is, in

we feel guilty about exercising them.
56. According to the passage, an assertive person ________.
[ A ] makes other people feel unfairly treated
[ B ] puts forward his ideas at the expense of others

57. Which of the following is NOT the reason that many people prefer not to be
assertive?
[A] They would rather be aggressive than be assertive.
[B] It's often better to give people hints than to be straightforward.
[C] Their needs to express themselves take secondary place before important
persons.
[ D] They tend to give excuses and justifications for their actions.
58. The last word of the passage
[A] rules [B] actions
[c] personal rights [D] privileged positions

source of installment loans which may run for 12 months or up to 36. Most
banks also make singlepayment loans to consumers for short periods@30, 60, or 90
days. A typical interest rate is 3 cents per $$100 per day. Suppose that you used $$100
of your credit and repaid it in 30 days. The cost would be 90 cents.

Borrowing from pawnbrokers is both easy and expensive. In exchange for a loan
the borrower leaves some item of value such as jewelry, a camera, a musical
instrument, or clothing. Usually the amount of money received is far less than the
actual value of the item left. When a borrower repays the loan plus interest, the
pawnbroker returns the item. If the loan is not paid within a year, the pawnbroker
gets his or her money by selling the item.

When money is urgently needed, people may agree to pay any price for a loan.
Too late, they may find themselves in the clutches of loan sharks. A loan shark is an
unlicensed lender because their rates are higher than the law allows, sometimes
1,000 percent or more a year. Borrowers are hardly ever able to repay their loans. It
is all they can do to pay the interest. Borrowers who fail to pay the interest on time
have been threatened with injury.
Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements
61. Mark Lilla [A] A person can borrow as much as his life insurance's cash value.
62. Chris Roddy [B] The lender gets huge profits.
63. Karen Barber [C] The borrowers may not take as long as they want to repay
their loans.
64. Louise Richard [ D] If the loan is not paid in a year, the item belongs to the
lender.
65. Jodie Morse [E] Borrowing from their parents or relatives is the easiest or
the
best loan source for the young consumers.
[ F ] The consumers without good credit can borrow money from their parents
or relatives.
