Part I Reading
Comprehension (30%)
Directions: There are
three passages in this part. 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 blacken the
corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on
the following passage:
The reflective towers
of New York City, which is on the Atlantic
migrating(迁徙的) route, can
be deadly for
birds.“We live in an age of glass,”said Ms.
Laurel,an architect. (76) “It can be a
perfect
mirror in certain lights, and the larger the
glass, the more dangerous it is.”About 90,000
birds are killed by flying into buildings in
the city each year. Often, they strike the lower
levels of
glass towers after searching for
food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-
leading cause of
death for migrating birds,
after habitat (栖息地) loss, with an estimated number
of death ranging up
to a billion a year.
(77) As glass office and apartment towers have
increased in the last decade, so, too have calls
to makethem less deadly to birds. San
Francisco adopted bird-safety standards for new
buildings in
July. The United States Green
Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that
encourages the
creation of environmentally
conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety
credit this fall as part
of its environmental
certification process.
There are no easy
fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring
glass designs that use
ultraviolet (紫外线的)
signals, but they are still in their infancy.
Covers, dot patterns, shades and
nets are the
main options available.
Often, only one
section of a building needs to be changed. ou
don't necessarily have to treat
every
window,
IC Javits Convention Center, which has
been undergoing alterations, is the most recent
building to
voluntarily correct the problem of
bird crashes. The architects used less reflective
glass and dot
patterns.

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following
passage:
Today's students have grown up
hearing more about Bill Gates than F. D. R., and
they live in a
world where amazing innovations
(革新) are common. The current 18-year-olds, after
all, were 8
when Google was founded by two
students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded
Facebook in
2004 while he was at Harvard and
they were entering high school. Having grown up
digital (数字
的), they are impatient to get on
with life.
The easiest way to fred kids like
these is to check in on entrepreneurship (企业家才能 )
education, in which colleges and universities
try to prepare their students to recognize
opportunities
and seize them.
A report
published last year by the Kauffman Foundation,
which finances programs to
promote innovation
on campuses, noted that more than 5,000
entrepreneurship programs are
offered on two-
and four-year campuses-up fromjust 250 courses in
1985. Lesa Mitchell, a
Kauffman vice
president, says that the foundation is extending
the reach of its academic influence,
which
used to be found only inbusiness schools. Now, the
concept of entrepreneurship is blooming
in
engineering programs and medical schools, and even
in the liberal arts. “Our interest is inall the
programs,” she says.“We need to spread out
from the business school.”
Either as class
projects or on their own_, students in a variety
of majors are coming up with
ideas, writing
business plans and seeing them through to
prototype and, often, market. In their
spare
time, students in agricultural economics at Purdue
invent new uses for bean; industrial design
majors at Syracuse, in a special laboratory,
create wearable technologies.
(78) The
entrepreneurship movement has its critics'
especially among those who see college as
a
time for extensive academic exploration. “I just
don't think that entrepreneurship ranks so high in
terms of national: need,”says Daniel S.
Greenberg, author of Science for Sale: The Perils,
Rewards
and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.
Leonard A. Schlesinger, Babson College's
president, says that the question of whether
innovation can really be taught is“an age-old
argument.”
6. When Google and Facebook were
established, the founders were still__________.
A. in high school B. in the army
C.
in primary school D. at college
7.
According to the passage, what is the main purpose
of entrepreneurship education?
A. To prepare
students for future academic life.
B. To
prepare students to fred oppommities and seize
them.
C. To prepare students for overseas
career.
D. To prepare students to develop
interpersonal skills.
8. Theword“prototype” in
the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean
__________
A. model B. strategy C.
method D. stage
2
9. What
does Daniel S. Greenberg think of entrepreneurship
education?
A. Entrepreneurship, or at least
certain elements of it, can be taught.
B. An
entrepreneurship program can help students find
what they really like and entrepreneurship
isn't all about business.
C.
Entrepreneurship should be spread across different
fields.
D. Colleges shouldn't put too much
emphasis on entrepreneurship programs.
10.
What is the main ideaof the passage?
A.
Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.
B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.
C.
Entrepreneurship education in colleges.
D.
Kids in the information age.
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following
passage:
Regret is as common an emotion as
love or fear, and it can be nearly as powerful.
So, in a new
paper, two researchers set about
trying to find out what the typical American
regrets most. In
telephone surveys, Neal
Roese, a psychologist and professor of marketing
at the School
ofmanagement at Northwestern
UniverSity, and Mike Morrison, a doctoral
candidate in psychology
at University of
Illinois, asked 370 Americans, aged 19 to 103, to
talk about their most notable
regret.
Participants were asked what the regret was, when
it happened, whether it was a result of
something they did or didn't do, and whether
it was something that could still be fixed.
The most commonly mentioned regrets involved
romance (浪漫的事) (18%)——lost loves or
unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came
in second (16%), with people still feeling badly
about
being unkind to their brothers or
sisters in childhood. Other frequently reported
regrets involved
career (13%), education
(12%), money (10%) and parenting (9%).
Roese
and Morrison's study, which is to be published in
Social Psychological and Personality
Science,
is significant in that it surveyed a wide range of
the American public, including people of
all
ages and socio-economic and educational
backgrounds. Previous studies on regret have
focused
largely on college students, who
predictably tend to have education-focused
regrets, like wishing
they had studied harder
or a different major. The new survey shows that in
the larger population, a
person's
accomplishments, shortcomings, situation in life-
inject considerable
fuel into the fires of
regret,
(79) People with less education, for
instance, were more likely to report education
regrets.
People with higher levels of
education had the most career regrets. And those
with no romantic
parmer tended to hold regrets
regarding love.
Broken down (分解、细分) by sex,
more women (44%) than men (19%) had regrets about
love
and family not surprising, since women
write. In contrast, men (34%) weremore likely
than women (27%) to mention work-related regrets,
wishing they'd chosen a different career path,
for instance, or followed their passion. (80) Many
participants also reported wishing they had
worked less to spend more time with their
children.
There was an even split between
regrets about inaction (not doing something) and
action
(doing something you wish you didn't).
But, like previous studies, the current research
found that
some regrets are more likely than
others to persist over time: people tend to hang
on longer to the
regret of inaction;
meanwhile, regrets of action tend to be more
recent.
