123Part 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 mark the corresponding letter on the
Answer Sheet with
a single line through
cente
Passage 1
Questions 1
to 5 are based on the following passage:
Television has opened
windows in everybody’s life. Young men will never
again go to war as they did in 1914,
Millions of people now have seen
the
effects of a battle. And the result has been a
general dislike of war,
and
perhaps
more
interest
in
helping
those
who
suffer
from
all
the
terrible things that
have been shown on the screen.
Television
has
also
changed
politics.
The
most
distant
areas
can
now
follow
state
affairs,
see
and
hear
the
politicians
before
an
election.
Better
informed,
people
are
more
likely
to
vote,
and
so
to
make
their
opinion count.
Unfortunately, television’s influence
has been extreme
ly harmful to the
young.
(76)Children
do
not
have
enough
experience
to
realize
that
TV
shows
present
an
unreal
world;
that
TV
advertisements
lie
to
sell
products
that
are
sometimes
bad
or
useless.
They
believe
that
the
violence they see is normal and
acceptable. All educators agree that the
“television
generations”
are
more
violent
than
their
parents
and
grandparents.
Also, the
young are less patient. (77)Used to TV shows,
where everything
is quick and
interesting, they do not have the patience to read
an article
without
pictures;
to
read
a
book
that
requires
thinking;
to
listen
to
a
teacher
who
doesn’t
do
funny
things
like
the
people
on
children’s
programs.
And
they
expect
all
problems
to
be
solved
happily
in
ten,
fifteen,
or thirty minutes. That’s the time
it
takes on the screen.
1. In the past,
many young people ______.
A. knew the
effects of war
B. went in
for politics
C. liked to save the
wounded in wars
D. were willing to be
soldiers
2. Now with TV people can
_____.
A. discus politics at an
information center
B. show more
interest in politics
C.
make their own decisions on political affairs
D. express their opinions
freely
3. The author thinks that TV
advertisements _____.
A. are not
reliable on the whole
B. are useless to
people
C. are a good guide to adults
D. are very harmful to the young
4. Which is NOT true
according to the passage
A. People have
become used to crimes now.
B. With a TV set some problems can be
solved quickly.
C. People now like to
read books with picture.
D.
The adults are less violent than the young.
5. From the passage, we can conclude
that _____.
A. children should keep
away from TV
programs
should be improved
C. children’s books
should have pictures
D. TV
has a deep influence on the young
Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10
are based on the following passage:
Nonverbal
(
非
语
言
的
)
communication
has
to
do
with
gestures,
movements and
closeness of two people when they are talking.
(78) The
scientists say that those
gestures, movements and so on have meaning
which words do not carry.
For example, the body distance between
two speakers can be important.
North
Americans
often
complain
that
South
Americans
are
unfriendly
because they tend to stand close to the
North American when speaking,
while
the
South
American
often
considers
the
North
American
to
be
“cold” or “distant”
because he keeps a greater distance between
himself
and the
person he is
speaking to . The “eye contact” provides another
example
of
what
we
are
calling
nonverbal
communication.
Scientists
have observed
that there is more eye contact between people who
like
each
other
than
there
is
between
people
who
don’t
like
each
other.
(79)The length of time that the person
whom you are speaking to looks
at your
eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in
the things you are
talking about.
On the other hand, too long a gaze can
make people uncomfortable. The
eyes
apparently play a great part in nonverbal
communication. Genuine
warmth or
interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen
in the eyes.
We do not always consider
a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone
who is always smiling, and with little
apparent reasons, often makes us
uneasy.
6. According to the
passage, nonverbal communication _____.
A. is a method often used by people who
cannot speak
B. can tell something that
words cannot
C. can be used to talk
with people who cannot bear
D. is less used than words
7. The South American _____.
A.
tends
to
keep
a
distance
between
himself
and
the
person
he
is
speaking to
B. usually stands close to
the person he is talking to
C. is often unfriendly when spoken to
D. is often cold and
distant when speaking
8.
Which of the following is NOT true
A.
Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.
B. The longer one looks at you , the
more interest he has in you.
C. There
is more eye contact between people who like each
other.
D. Shorter eye contact show more
interest in what one is talking about.
9. Too long a gaze _____.
A.
may upset people being looked at
B.
shows one’s great confidence
C. indicates one’s interest in the talk
D. tells you how friendly
one is
10. Constant smiling
without apparent reason _____.
A. is a
sign of one’s friendliness
B. is a sign of one’s
unfriendliness
C. makes
people fell happy
D. makes
people feel uncomfortable
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the
following passage:
In the
United States elementary education begins at the
age of six. At this
stage
nearly
all
the
teachers
are
women,
Mostly
married.
(80)
The
atmosphere is usually very friendly,
and the teachers have now accepted
the
idea
that
the
important
thing
is
to
make
the
children
happy
and
interested. The old authoritarian
(
要绝对服从的
) methods of
education
were
discredited
(
不被认可
)
rather
a
long
time
ago
-
so
much
so
that
many people now think
that they have gone too far in the direction of
trying
to
make
children
happy
and
interested
rather
than
gibing
them
actual instruction.
The
social
education
of
young
children
tries
to
make
them
accept
the
idea
that
human
beings
in
a
society
need
to
work
together
for
their
common
good.
So
the
emphasis
is
on
co-operation
rather
than
competition throughout
most of this process. This may seem curious, in
view
of
the
fact
that
American
society
is
highly
competitive;
however,
the
need
for
making
people
sociable
in
this
sense
has
come
to
be
regarded as
one of the functions of education. Most Americans
do grow
up with competitive ideas, and
obviously quite a few as criminals, but it
is
not
fair
to
say
that
the
educational
system
fails.
Ti
probably
does
succeed in making most people sociable
and ready to help one another
both in
material ways and through kindness and
friendliness.
11. According to the
passage, the . elementary education is supposed to
make children _____.
A.
sensible and sensitive B. competitive and
interested
C. curious and friendly D.
happy and co-operative
12.
Some
Americans
complain
about
elementary
schools
because
they
think _____.
A. children are
reluctant to help each other
B. schools
lay too much emphasis on co-operation
C. children should grow up with
competitive ideas
D. schools give
little actual instruction to children
13.
The
author’s
attitude
towards
American
education
can
be
best
described as _____.
A.
favorable B. negative C. tolerant D. unfriendly
14. The American
educational system emphasizes _____.
A.
material wealth B. competition C. co-operation D.
personal benefit
15.
The
word
“sociable”
(Line
8,
Paragraph2)
most
probably
means
_____.
A. fond of talking
freely
B. friendly with
other people
C. concerned
about social welfare
D. happy at school

Part IV Cloze (10%)
Directions:
there
are
20
blanks
in
the
following
passage,
and
for
each
blank there are 4
choices marked A, B, C and D at the end of the
passage.
You
should
choose
ONE
answer
that
best
fits
into
the
passage.
Then
mark
the
corresponding
letter
on
the
Answer
Sheet
with
a
single
line
through the center.
In China
it is relatively usual to ask people their age,
but in the West this
question
is
generally
regarded
as
impolite.
This
is
particularly
true
56
women, and even more than
57 if the inquirer is a man.
However,
it is very 58 to ask children their age, and some
adults may not
mind 59 either. In fact,
some elderly people are quite happy to 60 their
age, especially if they feel they look
young 61 their age. Nevertheless, it
is
not very wise to ask a(n) 62 question like
people want to talk about their age,
and perhaps receive a compliment
on how
young they look, they may easily 63 the topic
themselves, and
ask
the
other
person
to
64
how
old
they
are.
65
such
a
question,
it
is
quite
acceptable
to
discuss
age
66
.
They
normally
expect
to
be
complimented
on
their
youthfulness,
though
rather
than
67
that
they
look very old!
68 Westerners do not usually ask people
directly how old they are, this
does
not 69 that they are not interested to know how
old other people
are. They may ask
someone else 70 the information, 71 they may try
to
72 the topic indirectly. Sometimes
discussions about educational 73 and
the number of years of working
experience may provide some 74 , but
this is not always the 75 .
56. A. on B. for C. in D. of
57. A. that B. such C. than D. so
