Passage 1
Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing.In most cases individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter.“You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, not want to be a writer.”
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair.For every writer kissed by fortune there are
thousands more whose longing is never rewarded.When I left a 20-year career in the US Coast Guard to become a freelance writer(自由撰稿者), I had no prospects at all.What I did have was a friend who found me a room in a New York apartment building.It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom.I immediately bought used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t got a break and began to doubt myself.It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat.But I knew I wanted to write.I had dreamed about it for years, I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering.What if I would keep putting my dream to the test(even though it meant living with uncertainly and fear of failure)? This is the shadow-land of hope, and any one with a dream must learn to live there.51.The passage is meant to __________.A.warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience B.encourage young people to pursue a writing career
C.show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth
D.advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer 52.What can be concluded from the passage?
A.A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on effort.B.Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.C.Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D.The chances for a writer to become successful are small
53.Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career? A.He found his dream would never come true.B.He hadn’t seen a change for the better
C.He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year.D.He wasn’t able to produce a single look.54.In line 12 “… people who die wondering”, “who” refers to “those __________.” A.who think a lot without making a decision B.who regret giving up their career halfway C.who think too much of the dark side of life D.who are full of imagination even upon death Passage 2 Students can travel in the United States without spending too much money if they follow these suggestions.A travel agent can give you information on special economy fares for trains, buses and planes.Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip, too.You’ll not only save money, but you’ll also see a lot more of the country.Some students may want to travel by car.Be sure to think about going with other students—many colleges have “ride boards” that list when and where other students plan to travel.Many radio stations provide the same sort of service—they announce who’s driving where, when, how many riders they will take and what the expenses will be.There are many inexpensive, older hotels near bus or train stations.Check your travel guide for names of the best.Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where young people can stay for only a few dollars a night.You don’t have to eat in restaurants all the time, but we don’t recommend a diet of candy and cola, either.You can usually get a healthy, cheap breakfast in a restaurant.If the weather is warm, you can buy food in supermarkets or at roadside stands and have a picnic for lunch.For dinner you can get the names of good, cheap restaurants from travel guides or friends.55.The passage tells students ___________.A.how to get help while traveling
B.how to make travel plans
C.how to use less money while traveling
D.how to choose hotels
56.To see more of the country, you’d better travel ___________.A.by plane B.by train
C.by bus
D.by bike
57.According to the passage, staying at youth hostels is ___________.A.cheap
B.enjoyable
C.comfortable
D.convenient
58.To save money, you can ___________.A.eat in restaurants sometimes
B.invite your friends for a picnic C.take some food with you
D.have more candy and cola
Passage 3
Emily Dickinson was a nineteenth-century American woman who lived her life completely unknown to anyone except her family and a few friends.Less than a dozen of her poems were published during her lifetime.In spite of this, she is regarded today as a great poet, perhaps the greatest poet the United States has produced.Along with the Greek poet Sappho, she may be one of the two greatest women poets who have ever lived.Dickinson was born on December 10, 1830, in a small Massachusetts town called Amherst.Hers was an old family, and her ancestors had come to the United States 200 years before“ Her parents were not really rich, but they were certainly not poor.She had an older brother, Austin, and a younger sister, Lavinia.Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people, and the members of the family spent a good deal of time by themselves.She doesn’t seem to have liked her mother very much.She spoke once of never really having a mother.She was educated at the local Amherst Academy and Mount Holyoke Women’s Seminary.Although she was sometimes described as pretty, she never married.In all outward respects, her life appeared to be rather boring.The time and place in which she lived was not a good one for a woman artist to succeed.Women are expected to be obedient to men and to remain in their place at home.Rather than waste her life in the meaningless round of social events that were open to women, she decided at some point to retreat from the world in order to write her poetry.From then on, she
spent a great deal of time in her bedroom writing.In later years when she was standing in front of her bedroom door, she
looked at her niece and said, ”It’s just a turn--and freedom, Mary!“ It was when she closed the door of her room and turned the key that locked the door that the most important and creative hours of her life were spent, the hours when she wrote her poetry.She was regarded as a recluse by many of her neighbors, that is, as a person who spent a good deal of time by herself.59.According to the writer, who is the greatest woman writer in America? A．Both Sappho and Emily Dickinson.B．Emily Dickinson.C．Sappho.D．Not mentioned in the passage.60.Women in Emily Dickinson's time ________.A.are regarded as recluses
B.are expected to be obedient to men C.spend most of their time in social event
D.are expected to retreat from the world 61.Emily Dickinson's ancestors came to the United States in around _______.A.1630 B.1830 C.1730 D.1930 62.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A.It is quite likely that Emily Dickinson didn't like her mother.B.Emily Dickinson regarded being locked in her room as ”freedom".C.She is well-known in her lifetime and is still regarded as a great poet now.D.Her parents seem to have been rather withdrawn people, and they spent a good deal of time with their family members.71.In most cases individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewriter.72.It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat.73.Think about hiking or biking for a part of your trip, too.You’ll not only save money, but you’ll also see a lot more of the country.74.Many parts of the country also have youth hostels where young people can stay for only a few dollars a night.75.In spite of this, she is regarded today as a great poet, perhaps the greatest poet the United States has produced.76.我们想知道他是如何解决那个问题的。
77.这是一个非常重要的会议，请务必不要迟到。78.明天下午有一场足球比赛。
79.汤姆非常喜欢读书，每周都去书店。80.不管他们是谁，都得对这次事故负责。

Researchers have found that REM(rapid eye movement)sleep is important to human beings.This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence.The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical charges in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM(non-rapid eye movement)to REM sleep.Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep.It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61.According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?

Passage Two
The Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the word, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren.According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose.Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small children in 1719.However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story—and doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person.They point out that the name is a direct translation of the French “Mere I’ Oye.” In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used.The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty,” “Cinderella,” and “Puss in Boots.” But Perrault did not originate these stories;they were already quite popular in his day, and he only collected them.66.What is suppssed to have happened in 1719?
Elizabeth Vergoose wrote the first Mother Goose Stories.Thomas Fleet published the Mother Goose Stories.The Mother Goose Stories were translated into French.Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goose Stories.67.Most scholars consider Mother Goose to be _________.A.a real person B.a book written by a little old woman
C.a collection by Elizabeth Vergoose D.a translation from French
68.When Perrault published the first book in 1679, _______.no story of the book had been known to people
some stories of the book were already well known
few people were interested in the stories of the book
stories like “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella” became popular
69.The name used in the first book published in 1679 is supposed to have been _______.A.Mother Goose B.Mere I’ Oye C.Elizabeth Vergoose D.Charles Perrault
70.On the basis of this passage, what may be concluded about the real origin of stories “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella”?
They were invented by Elizabeth Vergoose.They were invented by Thomas Fleet.They were invented by Charles Perrault.Their writers are unknown.Passage Three
Banks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts;they rely on depositors(储户)not to demand payment all at the same time.If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same day.If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts.However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it.Mrs.Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced.One day in December of 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs.Vaught lived.The other banks expected a run the next day, and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs Vaught worked as a teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors.The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand.The next morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside.The length of the line made many think that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone.People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers’ windows, The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers, though they knew that the bank was quite all right and could pay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank.Mrs Vaught says that she had difficulty keeping herself from doing the same.71.A bank run happens when _______.a bank is closed for one or more days
too many depositors try to draw out their money at one time
there is not enough money to pay all its depositors at one time
tellers of a bank take their own money from the bank
72.The tellers in Mrs.Vaught’s bank were told to ________.explain why they could not pay out all accounts
pay out accounts as requested
make the depositors believe that the bank was stand
pay out money as slowly as possible
73.The main cause of a bank run is _______.A.loss of confidence B.lack of money
C.crowds of people D.inexperienced tellers
74.Which of the following did Mrs.Vaught say?
She know that the bank was not sound.She feared that too many depositors drawing their money would close the bank.She was not able to draw out her money.She was tempted to draw out her money.75.According to the passage, the actions of the depositors of Mrs.Vaught’s bank were affected mainly by the _______.ease with which they could get their money
confidence that Mrs.Vaught showed
failure of several other banks to open
confidence shown by other depositors of the bank
Passage Four
One of the greatest problems for those settlers in Nebraska in the last quarter of the previous century was fuel.Little of the state was forested when the first settlers arrived and it is probable that by 1880, only about one-third of the originally forested area remained, down to a mere 1 percent of the state’s 77,000 square miles.With wood and coal out of the question, and with fuel needed year-round for cooking, and during the harsh winter months for heating, some solution had to be found.Somewhat improbably, the buffalo provided the answer.Buffalo chips(干粪块)were found to burn evenly, hotly, and cleanly, with little smoke and interestingly, no odor, Soon, collecting them became a way of life for the settlers’ children who would pick them up on their way to and from school, or take part in competitions designed to counteract their natural reluctance.Even a young man, seeking to impress the girl he wanted to marry, would arrive with a large bag of chips rather than with a box of candy or a bunch of flowers.76.What is the main topic of this passage?
The solution to the Nebraska settlers’ fuel problem.Life in Nebraska in the late ninteenth century.The imporance of the American buffalo.Deforestation in Nebraska in the late nineteenth century.77.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
Nebraska was not a densely-forested state even before the settlers arrived.The children enjoyed collecting the buffalo chips.The children spent a lot of time collecting the chips.Buffalo chips were satisfactory as a fuel.78.The passage implies that buffalo chips were needed _______.A.in greater amounts in summer B.in greater amounts in winter
C.only in summer D.only in winter
79.Which of the following does the author not express surprise at?
The children needed competitions to them.The buffalo chips gave off no smell.Buffalo chips were the answer to the settlers’ fuel problem.Young men took bags of buffalo chips to their girl friends.80.What’s the best title of the passage?
A.Early Settlers B.One Use of the Buffalo Chips
C.Nebraska’s Problems D.How Young Men Express Their Love for Girls

Part III Reading Comprehension（40%）
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: You must have been troubled by when to say ―I love you‖ because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn‘t love you back? Or if they do say it, but you don‘t feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be ever racking(紧张）and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle(海龟)with no shell.But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn‘ t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand fast?
―A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal,‖ says psychologist Sidney Crown.―But love is seldom equal.‖ All relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in.―That feeling of ‗I‘ve always loved you more‘ may be subverted(颠覆，破坏)for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(大声争吵).― In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful.―The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings,‖ says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins.Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees.―The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative.In fact, the person who says ‗I love you‘ first may also be the one who says ‗I‘m bored with you‘ first.‖ Hall believes that much depends on how ―I love you‖ is said and the motivation
of the person saying it.―Is it said when they‘re drunk? Is it said before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is ‗Please don‘t be unfaithful to me‘? By saying ‗I love you‘, they are really saying ‗Do you love me?‘ If so, wouldn‘t it just be more honest to say that.Collins agrees that intention is everything.―It‘s not what is said, but how it‘s said.What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.‖ 1.What is the main idea of this passage? A.The importance of ―I love you‖.B.The meaning of ―I love you‖.C.The time of saying ―I love you.D.The place of saying ―I love you‖.2.In the first sentence the author means that ________.A.it is easy to say ―I love you‖ B.it is hard to say ―I love you‖
C.we have many troubles in our life D.people usually do not know when to say ―I love you‖
3.According to the expert, a good relationship should be ________.A.fair and equal B.fair and kind C.powerful and equal D.confident and fair 4.In the third paragraph, the phrase ―with the upper hand‖ means ________.A.being low in spirit B.having only one hand C.being active D.being passive 5.What is the most important for you to consider when somebody say ―I love you‖ to you? A.The intention.B.The place.C.The time.D.The determination.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: Culture shock is the loss of emotional balance, disorientation(茫然失措), or confusion that a person feels when moving from a familiar environment to an unfamiliar one.When it is a common experience, the degree to which it occurs will vary from one person to another.Individual personality, previous cross-cultural experience, and language proficiency all affect a person‘s ability to interact socially in the new culture.The basic cause of culture shock is the abrupt loss of all that is familiar, leading to a sense of isolation.When an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of those familiar signs and hints are removed.He or she is like a fish out of water.No matter how broad-minded or good-willed he may be, a series of properties have been knocked from under him.This may be followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety.People react to the frustration in much the same way.First they reject the environment which causes the discomfort: ―The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad.‖
Another aspect of culture shock is regression(倒退).The home environment suddenly assumes a tremendous importance, and everything becomes irrationally glorified.All difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered.It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.Common symptoms of culture shock include the following extremes.These are excessive concerns over delays and other minor frustrations;fear of being cheated, robbed or injured;sleeplessness or a desire to sleep more;and a great longing to go home.Underlying all these is the uncomfortable feeling of not really belonging, of being an outsider.6.Culture shock is basically caused by ________.A.difficulties in using the language B.being unable to make friends C.feeling desperately homesick D.being away from all that is familiar 7.The degree of culture shock to which one feels varies ________.A.from person to person B.from country to country C.in accordance with a person‘s age D.in accordance with one‘s nationality
8.The first response a person tends to have when setting foot on a new land is ________.A.feeling frustrated B.fearing to be cheated C.having a sense of losing something D.having a sense of being abandoned 9.A home-coming trip will ________.A.draw you back to reality B.make you remember all the good things C.make you forget the troubles D.help you solve the problems 10.Which is NOT a symptom of culture shock? A.Longing to go back home.B.Longing to travel.C.Having fear of being cheated.D.Feeling to be an outsider.There is a passage with ten blanks.You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage through carefully before making your choices.Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 11 to 20 are based on the following passage.He looked straight into her eyes, in 11 of a definite answer.―I came here on her behalf,‖ she said, ―She has her words in her letter.‖ He accepted the letter, saw her disap¬pearing amid the throng and got to thinking about what it might tell.The letter read, ―I feel tremendous to you for your sincere friendship.You‘ve sprinkled over my whole life marvelous stars that will never 13.Once I was totally 14 to your deep affection, thorough considerateness that I appreciate so much yet could never repay;nevertheless you never mentioned that you‘ve fallen in love with me.You said and I quote: I‘m more of a flower than of a real girl.‖ The very statement brought back in a their beautiful holiday at sea that had impressed him.Yet now everything had 16 such swift changes.―Therefore, I have my time to bloom.I couldn‘t wait any longer, even though I am still immersed in our past, which I really fail to unload.My marriage is 17.In the letter are some assembled photos of us.You can put them away...‖
He kept turning over her each specific statement while 18 recollecting their joys, tours, dinners, and the rest 19.The love he accords top priority collapsed all of a sudden, but what had happened couldn‘t be.―I‘ve always been in love, though in secret.‖ Silently he said to the letter, weeping.Tears trickled down his face, successively dropping onto the letter.A)gratitude B)under way C)revealed D)going about E)light F)changed G)undergone H)exposed I)looking for
J)quest K)in turn L)diminish M)thank N)reversed O)flash
There is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements.Read the passage carefully, and answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Young people often wonder at the large number of employers who do not respond to their applications for jobs.They say that despite enclosing return envelopes they hear nothing at all or, at the best, an impersonal note is sent declaring that the post for which they applied has been filled.Applicants often developed the suspicion that vacancies are earmarked（内定）for friends and relatives and that advertisements are only put out to avert this accusation.Many of them tire of writing around and feel that if only they could obtain an interview with the right person their application would meet with success.Not to acknowledge applicants‘ letters is impolite and there seems little excuse for this.Yet even sending brief replies to the many who apply takes much time and money.That so-called return envelope may not have been stamped by the sender, and a hard-pressed office manager may be reluctant to send off long letters of explanation to disappointed job hunters.A brief note is all that can be managed and even that depends on the policy of the firm.But this difficulty is reasonably easy to remove with a little goodwill.16.What is the passage mainly about? ________________________________________________________________________ 17.Many job hunters think that they can get a job if __________________________________.18.The author thinks that a letter to decline an applicant should be ______________________.19.What is the chief reason for a manager not to acknowledge applicants‘ letters?
