Part III Reading Comprehension (1.5 points each, 30 points)

Section A

Passage one

In this age of equality, sameness between the sexes is emphasized as if differences have to mean problem. Well, differences can mean problems, but only when they are not properly understood.

Imagine Adam alone in the Garden of Eden and you will have an idea about the way many men feel today. If the major issue for women is overload in their life --- balancing career, relationship, children, home --- the crisis for men is loneliness and the loss of women. Twenty-five years ago, most men came home from work to a warm meal, a clean house, the devotion of a gentle wife, Now the majority of women work outside, they are no longer the full-time housewives as before, so men deserted and easily hurt.

Women get emotional support through a network of friends and family. Most men don’t have such relationships; they are intimate only with their wives or lovers. As a result, any lessoning of their partner’s attention may be thought of as rejection or abandonment.

Bob’s wife Sandy has a full-time job, and he really prefers her bringing home extra income. Yet he also feels uneasy and troubled. “When I get home at the end of the day, wanting to have a talk with Sandy,” he said, “She puts me off. First she makes dinner, then the kids need something, or a friend calls her. She talks with her sister, her girlfriends, her workmates, but not with me. I sometimes do feel abandoned and annoyed.”

Sine most men have difficulty admitting loneliness and hurt, they tend to become angry instead. Bob’s constant complaints and criticism made Sandy confused and irritated. Eventually, they came up with a simple solution that met both Bob’s need for time and Sandy’s sense of responsibility to others. The first half-hour after Bob arrived home from work was “theirs”, they would sit together and just talk to each other about everything they want to say.

51.Many men feel hurt and abandoned because _______.

A.women think it’s unfair to stay at home doing housework

B.their wives are no longer gentle and caring to the family

C.the equality of men and women is strongly emphasized

D.most women have their own jobs and don’t have enough time and energy caring about men

52.Why do men care a lot about their couples’ attitude towards them?

A.Because their differences can man problems

B.Because they don’t have a network of friends and family

C.Because they only want to have an intimate relation with their wives

D.Because men lack confidence nowadays

53.Which of the following statements about Bob and Sandy is true?

A.Bob doesn’t with Sandy to do a full-time job.

B.Sandy is too busy to have time talking with Bob.

C.Sandy puts Bob off since there’s no common topic between then anymore.

D.Sandy feels equal to Bob now and no longer loves him as before.

54.What does the passage want to tell us?

A.Differences between men and women would certainly bring problems.

B.All human beings should be considered equal.

C.Only sameness could bring happiness to a marriage life.

D.Mutual understanding between men and women helps to solve problem.

Passge Two

Many people have the experience that getting up in the morning is so difficult and painful. This might be called laziness. But D. Kleitman has a new explanation to this, he has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.

During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re feeling “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologue as: “Get up, Tom! You’ll he late for school again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that Tom is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening.

Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better, Habit can help a lot. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway, counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. However, if your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.

Get off to slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.

55.According the passage, what might bring family quarrels to the end?

A.Stopping familiar monologues every day

B.A sudden change of a family member’s energy cycle

C.Being aware of energy cycles of other family members

D.Trying to control the energy cycles of other members

56.If one wants to do better at his low point in the morning, he should_____.

A.change his energy cycle

B. go to bed earlier the day before

C.try to overcome his laziness

D. get up earlier than usual

57.What does the sentence “get off to slow start which saves your energy” mean?

A. It will help you to control your temper early in the day.

B.It will enable you to concentrate on your routine work.

C.It will help to keep your energy for the whole day’s work.

D.It will keep your energy cycle under control all day.

58.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A.Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.

B.Habit can help people adjust to their own energy cycle.

C.each person has his own energy cycle.

D.Getting up with a slow stall helps us to save energy for work.

Passage Three

A person with a flat, dull voice which neither rises nor falls sounds like a flat and dull person! But he or she may not be ! While we can’t deny the fact that people can give the impression that they are bored, anxious, friendly or angry just by the sound of their voice.

A French friend of min one said to me, “Your accent in French is excellent but you will never sound life a Frenchman until you put all your heart into your voice. Its a pity because you are lively person and yet you don’t sound lively to a Frenchman!”

We learn the grammar and vocabulary and even the correct pronunciation of the foreign people, but we may forget the important emotional effect of the music of our speech, for British people, the intension of language is attractive. That is to say, the rise and fall in the sound of our voice when we speak really matters. It’s unfortunate that the intonation of some other countries can often communicate the wrong meaning.

British people sometimes feel offended because they think the person is unfriendly even if he has spoken a perfect English sentence! And this failure of communication can also happen between British people themselves.

If you want to communicate successfully with another person, you may have to think about the music of your own voice. Especially when you meet someone from a different part of your country or from another country, you should be careful! Don’t judge them only by their intonation!

59.What does the writer want to show through the example in the second paragraph?

A.To learn a foreign language well, we must learn the sound and pronunciation well.

B.Grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation are not the only important elements in learning

foreign language.

C.A person with a flat, dull voice will not give other good impression.

D.In learning a foreign language, we must talk to the native speakers fluently.

60.The word “music” in the third paragraph means______.

A.intonation

B. rising tone

C. sweet voice

D. falling tone

61.British people sometimes feel offended while talking with others because_____.

A.they can’t understand what the other person says

B.the other person says something rude

C.the language they speak are quite different

D.they misunderstand the other person’s words

62.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.To communicate with others successfully, we must know music well.

B.We can’t simply judge a person by his voice, nor can we neglect intonation.

C.Many listeners will not pay attention to the sound of one’s voice.

D.It’s not easy for people from different countries or parts to communicate.
