choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the
correct choice
and write the corresponding
letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage 1
There are two things I can count on my dad asking
every time he calls me:
you?
really there
for him, and he's determined to provide me with
the support he lacked. During my youth he never
missed a school play or softball game. In
fact, he was so supportive that I sometimes longed
for one of those dads
who dressed better and
cared less. But my dad would forever be the guy
wearing shorts with dress shoes and
black
socks, cheering me on, expecting greatness.
His other standard question-- 'How's the car?
a
man who once suggested making a list of what you
want to talk about before calling someone out of
state. What
第2页 共6页
I now realize is that
is. The advantage is
that if there's something wrong with the car, he
knows what to do about it and how much it
will
cost, whereas if you're having marital problems or
doubting a career choice, he might have to put Mom
on
the line.
At age 30 1 finally took
the plunge(突然一跳) into adulthood by leasing（租） a
car without my dad's help
or advice. I'm sure
my dad was hurt rather than proud. Though a
daughter's independence is evidence（证据） of
a
job well done, it still implies the job's done,
and many fathers are reluctant to retire. Even
when my dad was
overworked, he'd happily hop
on a plane if I said I needed help. His frequent
question,
for you?underlines the fact that he
wishes there was still something he could provide.
It's interesting: Even
though we're tied by
blood and I love him no matter what, he still
seems to need a concrete function -- suggesting
stocks, finding the cheapest plane fare -- to
feel he has a role in my life.
16. Judging
from the first paragraph, the author has a very
A supportive father
B rich father
C capable father
D careful father
17. The author now realizes
that by asking
A wasting precious money
B asking how she's getting along
C expressing
his concern for her safety D
showing how much he knows about cars
18. In
case the author asked her father what she should
do with her life, he would probably
A let her
mother answer the question B tell
her his own experience in career choice
C
let her make her own decision D
make a list of what to say to her
19. When the
author leased a car without asking her father's
advice, he was
A proud his daughter had
finally achieved independence
B hurt
because he had no more to do for her
C
happy that he had got a job well done
D
angry because his daughter no longer minded his
advice
20. What does the author mean by saying
A They want to continue to work so they
will have money to provide support for their
daughters.
B They are afraid they'll lose
their daughters' love if they don't do something
for them.
C They believe their daughters
need their help in things such as fixing a car.
D They wish to keep playing some role in
their daughters' lives
Passage 2
Perhaps
you are an average student with average
intelligence. You do well enough in school, but
you
probably think you will never be a top
student. This is not necessarily the case,
however. You can receive better
grades if you
want to. Yes, even students of average
intelligence can be top students without
additional work.
Here’s how:
1. Plan your
time carefully. Make a list of your weekly tasks.
Then make a schedule or chart of your time.
Fill in committed time such as eating,
sleeping, meetings, classes, etc. Then decide on
good, regular times for
studying. Be sure to
set aside enough time to complete your normal
reading and work assignments. Of course,
studying shouldn’t occupy all of the free time
on the schedule. It’s important to set aside time
for relaxation,
hobbies, and entertainment as
well. This weekly schedule may not solve all of
your problems, but it will make
you more aware
of how you spend your time. Furthermore, it will
enable you to plan your activities so that you
have adequate time for both work and play.
2. Find a good place to study. Choose one
place for your study area. It may be a desk or a
chair at home or in
第3页 共6页
the school library, but it should be
comfortable, and it should not have distractions.
When you begin to work, you
should be able to
concentrate on the subject.
3. Skim before you
read. This means looking over a passage quickly
before you begin to read it more
carefully. As
you preview the material, you get some idea of the
content and how it is organized. Later when you
begin to read you will recognize less
important material and you may skip some of these
portions. Skimming
helps double your reading
speed and improves your comprehension as well.
4. Make good use of your time in class.
Listening to what the teacher says in class means
less work later. Sit
where you can see and
hear well. Take notes to help you remember what
the teacher says.
5. Study regularly. Go over
your notes as soon as you can after class. Review
important points mentioned in
class as well as
points you remain confused about. Read about these
points in your textbook. If you know what
the
teacher will discuss the next day, skim and read
that material too. This will help you understand
the next class.
If you review your notes and
textbook regularly, the material will become more
meaningful and you will
remember it longer.
Regular review leads to improved performance on
tests.
6. Develop a good attitude about tests.
The purpose of a test is to show what you have
learned about a
subject. The world won’t end
if you don’t pass a test, so don’t worry
excessively about a single test. Tests provide
grades, but they also let you know what you
need to spend more time studying, and they help
make your new
knowledge permanent.
There
are other techniques that might help you with your
studying. Only a few have been mentioned here.
You will probably discover many others after
you have tried these. Talk with your classmates
about their study
techniques. Share with them
some of the techniques you have found to be
helpful. Improving your study habits
will
improve your grades.
21. An average student
with average intelligence is a student who
_________.
A. is neither very bright nor
very dull B. has a normal ability to
learn and understand
C. does sufficiently
well but wins no distinction D. all of the above

possible for your homework

your time fulfilling your obligations as a college

Passage 3
One hundred and thirteen million
Americans have at least one bank issued credit
card. They give their
owners automatic credit
in stores, restaurants, and hotels, at home,
across the country, and even abroad, and they
make many banking services available as well.
More and more of these credit cards can be read
automatically,
making it possible to withdraw
or deposit money in scattered locations, whether
or not the local branch bank is
open. For many
of us the “cashless society” is not far away—it’s
already here.
While computers offer these
conveniences to consumers, they have many
advantages for sellers too.
Electronic cash
registers can do much more than simply ring up
sales. They can keep a wide range of records,
including who sold what, when, and to whom.
This information allows business men to keep track
of their list of
goods by showing which items
are being sold and how fast they are moving.
Decisions to reorder or return goods
to
suppliers can then be made. At the same time these
computers record which hours are busiest and which
employees are the most efficient, allowing
personnel and staffing assignments to be made
accordingly. And they
also identify preferred
customers for promotional campaigns. Computers
keep track of goods in stock, of raw
materials
on hand, and even of the production process
itself.
Numerous other commercial enterprises,
from theaters to magazine publishers, from gas and
electric utilities
to milk processors, bring
better and more efficient services to consumers
through the use of computers.
26. The passage
mainly discusses_______________.
A the
advantages of automatic credit in America
B
the advantages of credit cards in business
C the conveniences brought by computers in
business
D the significance of commercial
enterprises
27. What is the “cashless society”
like in the future according to the passage?
A People can withdraw cash from different places
with credit cards.
B People will not pay
cash in the stores in the near future.
C
There will be no cash in use in the American
society.
D The American society will not
make cash in the future.
28. The phrase “ring
up sales” (Line 2, Para. 2) means_______________.
A selling things from ringing service
B selling out telephones
C selling things
in a roundabout way D raising sales
figure

enable the manufacturers to______________.
A make use of more credit cards B
make arrangement for the production
C make
promotional campaigns D produce more
commercial goods
