Passage 1
I
was
15
when
I
walked
into
McCarley
Bookstore
and
began to look over the titles of the books on the shelves.
The man behind the counter, the owner of the bookstore,
asked me if I would like a job. I needed to start saving
for college, so I said yes.

I worked after school and during summers for minimum
wages and the job helped pay for my freshman year of
college. I worked at many other jobs afterwards: I made
coffee in the student union during college. I made maps
for the U.S Forest Service. But selling books was one of
the most satisfying.

One
day
a
woman
asked
me
for
books
on
cancer.
She
seemed
fearful.
I
showed
her
everything
we
had
and
found other books we could order. She left the shop less
worried and I

ve always remembered the pride I felt in
having helped her.

Years later, as a television reporter, I heard about a poor
child
who
was
born
with
his
fingers
of
the
left
hand
linked
together.
His
family
could
not
afford
the
corrective
surgery,
and
the
boy
lived
in
shame,
hiding
his left hand in his pocket.

I persuaded my boss to let me do the story on TV
. After
my
story
was
broadcast,
a
doctor
and
a
nurse
called,
offering to perform the surgery for free.

I visited the boy in the recovery room after the operation.
The first thing he did was hold up his repaired hand and
say,

Thank you.


I was overjoyed and filled with a
strong sense of reward.

At McCarley Bookstore, I always felt I was working for


the customers, not just for the store. Today it

s the same.
NBC news pays me the salary. But I feel that I work for
the viewers, helping them make sense of the world. My
working
experience
in
McCarley
Bookstore
helped
me
find a good sense of the world, and most importantly, it
helped me find a good sense of myself.

1.

did
the
author
get
the
job
in
McCarley
Bookstore?

happened
to
walk
into

Passage 2
Paper
was
invented
by
the
Chinese
in
the
first
century
AD. Paper was not made in southern Europe until about
the
year 1100. Scandinavia -
which now makes a great
deal of the world

s paper - did not begin to make it until
1500. Most paper is made from wood. Paper-making is
an
important
British
industry
and
paper
from
Britain
is
sold
to
many
countries
such
as
Australia
and
South
Africa.
Some
of
the
wood
used
in
the
British
paper
making industry comes from trees grown in Britain, but
wood
is
also
bought
from
other
countries
such
as
Norway.
One
tree
is
needed
for
every
four
hundred
copies
of
a
forty-page
newspaper.
If
half
the
adults
in
Britain buy one daily paper, this uses up over a thousand
trees a day. All over the world, trees are being cut down
faster
than
they
are
being
planted,
so
there
may
be
a
serious need for paper at the beginning of next century.

When we think of paper, we think of newspaper, books,
letters and writing paper. But there are many other uses.
Only half of paper is used for books and newspaper, etc.
Paper
is
very
good
for
keeping
you
warm.
Each
year,
more and more things are made of paper. Now we hear
that chairs, tables, and even beds can be made of paper.
But the latest in paper making seems to be paper houses.
1. Where was paper invented?
A. In China.



B. In southern Europe.
C. In Scandinavia.

D. In Britain.

2. Scandinavia began to make paper ____________.
A. in 1100




B. in 1400
C. in 1500

D. in the first century
3. Every four hundred copies of a forty-page newspaper
will need ____________.
A. half a tree




B. one tree
C. two trees

D. more than one tree
4.
All
over
the
world,
trees
are
being
cut
down
____________ than they are being planted.

D. faster
5. The latest things made of paper are ____________.
A. chairs




B. tables

Passage 3
We
often
use
gestures
to
express
our
feelings,
but
the
problem
is
that
the
gestures
can
be
understood
in
different ways.
It
is
true
that
a
smile
means
the
same
thing
in
any
language.
So
does
laughter
or
crying .
Fear
is
another
emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the
world. In Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like

he went pale and began to tremble


suggests that the
man
is
either
very
afraid
or
he
has
just
got
a
very
big
shock. However,

he opened his eyes wide


is used to
suggest
anger
in
Chinese
whereas
in
English
it
means
surprise.
In
Chinese,
surprise
can
be
described
in
a
phrase
like

they
stretched
out
their
tongues!



Stretching out your tongue


in English is an insulting
gesture or expresses strong dislike.
Even in the same culture, people differ in their ability to
understand
and
express
feelings.
Experiments
in


America have shown that women are usually better than
men
at
recognizing
fear,
anger,
love
and
happiness
on
people

s
faces.
Other
studies
show
that
older
people
usually
find
it
easier
to
recognize
or
understand
body
language than younger people do.
1.
Which
of
the
following
is
true
according
to
the
passage?
A. We
can
easily
understand
what
people

s
gestures
mean.
B. Words can be better understood by older people.
C. Gestures can be understood by most people but words
are not.
D. It
is
difficult
to
tell
what
people


gestures
really
mean sometimes.
2. People

s facial expressions may be misunderstood in
different cultures because ____________.
A. people
of
different
sexes
may
understand
a
gesture
differently
B. people
speaking
different
languages
have
different
facial expressions
C.
people
of
different
ages
may
have
different
interpretations
D.
people
from
different
cultures
have
different
meanings about some facial expressions
3.
From
the
passage,
we
can
conclude
that
____________.
A. gestures can be used to express feelings
B. gestures can be
more
effectively
used
than
words
to
express feelings
C. words
are
often
more
difficult
to
understand
than
gestures
D. gestures
are
used
as
frequently
as
words
to
express
feelings
4. In the same culture, people ____________.
A. hardly ever fail to understand each other

s ideas and
feelings
B.
are
equally
intelligent
even
if
they
have
different
backgrounds
C. almost
all
have
the
same
understanding of
the
same
thing
D. may have different abilities to understand and express
feelings
5. The best title for this passage can be ____________.
A. Gestures B. Feelings



C. Gestures
and
Feelings


D. Culture and Understanding
Key: 1. D

Passage 4
A
funny
thing
happened
on
the
way
to
the
communication
revolution:
we
stopped
talking
to
each
other.


I was walking in the park with a friend recently, and
his
mobile
phone
rang,
interrupting
our
conversation.
There we were, walking and talking on a beautiful sunny
day and


poof!


I was cut off as if I had become
absent from the conversation.


The park was filled with people talking on their cell
phones.
They
were
passing
people
without
looking
at
them,
saying
hello,
noticing
their
babies
or
stopping
to
pat their dogs. It seems that the limitless electronic voice
is preferred to human contact.


The
telephone
used
to
connect
you
to
the
absent.
Now it makes people feel absent. Recently I was in a car
with
three
friends.
The
driver
hushed
the
rest
of
us
because he could not hear the person on the other end of
his cell phone. There we were, four friends driving down
the highway, unable to talk to each other because of the
2
small thing designed to make communication easier.


Why is it that the more connected we get, the more
disconnected
I
feel?
Every
advance
in
communications
technology is a setback (
退步
) to the closeness of human
interaction.
With
e-mail
and
instant
message
over
the
Internet,
we
can
now
communicate
without
seeing
or
talking
to
one
another.
With
voice
mail,
you
can
make
entire conversations without ever reaching anyone. If my
mom
has
a
question,
I
just
leave
the
answer
on
her
machine.


As
almost
every
contact
between
human
beings
gets
automatic,
the
emotional
distance
index
goes
up.
Pumping
gas
at
the
station?
Why
say
good- morning
to
the assistant when you can swipe you credit card at the
pump
and
save
yourself
the
bother
of
human
contact?
Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to the clerk who
lives
in
the
neighborhood
when
you
can
put
your
card
into the ATM?

More and more, I find myself hiding behind e-mail
to do a job meant for conversation or being relieved that
voice mail picked up because I didn

t really have time
to
talk.
The
technology
devoted
to
helping
me
keep
in
touch is making me lonelier.

I own a mobile phone, an ATM card, a voice-mail
telephone, and an e-mail account. Giving them up isn

t
a choice. They are great for what they are intended to do.
It

s their unintended results that make me upset. What
good is all this gee-whiz technology if there is no one in
the room to hear you crying out

Gee whiz

?

Passage 5
Who will stage the games?
Preparing for the Olympics Games is a huge undertaking.
Just like the athletes, the host city spends
years getting
ready for the event. Before deciding which city will host
the
Olympic
Games,
the
International
Olympic
Committee (IOC) has to examine bids from all over the
world. Bidding for the games begins about ten years in
advance.
Without
preparing
a
very
strong
bid1,
a
city
will not win the competition to host the games. Beijing
was
chosen
for
the
2008
games
from
five
bidders


Osaka, Paris, Toronto and Istanbul.2
Why does it take so long to prepare?

Building the infrastructure costs huge amounts of money.
Holding
the
World
Cup
in
2002
in
Japan
and
South
Korea, for example, meant that ten new stadiums had to
be
built,
as
well
as
many
hotels
and
an
improved
transport
system.
In
Beijing,
after
winning
the
bid
the
government
began
major
construction
projects


the
extension
of
the
underground,
the
improvement
of
the
airport and the building of new motorways3. Each host
city must also build an Olympic village for the athletes.
By
planting
trees
and
creating
parks,
the
city
becomes
more attractive for tourists.
Why do countries want to host the Olympic Games?
Hosting
the
games
has
a
major
effect
on
the
economy
and
brings
international
prestige
to
the
country.
Thousands and thousands of visitors come to the games
and the host cities are permanently improved.
1.
Bidding
for
the
Olympic
Games
usually
starts
____________ before the games are really held.
A. two years B.
eight years
C. one year D. ten years
2.
Beijing
was
one
of
the
_______
bidders
for
the
