Part I Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)
Directions: There are several 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 the centre.
Passage One
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:
In some classes and at some schools, mid-terms seem to be almost non-existent. The phrase is used loosely to represent a short period of time occurring closer to the first day of classes than to finals with no specific calendar designed for it. Some classes require so many exams and papers
th at a “mid-term” never really happens. Other courses don’t give any exams at all; they require written assignments only. Nevertheless, there still exists a sizeable number of schools and curricula that rely on the traditional mid-term/final peaks in the semester to assess student performance.
The mere fact that mid-terms are intended to monitor one’s understanding of a subject
mid-way through the term carries a heavy burden for most students. At one end of the spectrum, students who perform well on their mid-terms tend to then study with far less consistency for their final exams －thus reducing their overall grade for the course. On the other end of that same spectrum, students who perform poorly on a mid-term often become psychologically negative; viewing the rest of the semester as a hopeless void. Almost immediately upon receiving their
mid-term grade, they’re already looking at the course syllabus, trying to compute what their final grade will be if only they can score on their final and on other relevant assessments.
Of course, to avoid becoming a victim of negative mid-term psychology on either end of the spectrum, it is recommended that you should work hard to do very well on your mid-semester exams. Plan in steps. Too many students only loosely understand their subject material and then attempt to learn it all on their own one week before or even one night before an exam. But this tactic rarely works! Ease the anxiety of mid-terms by covering whatever you learned in the previous class and study that material. In the long run, this tactic really takes less time than the “night before cram session”.

Passage Two
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
The man who, legend has it, escaped from an early grave when his uncle pulled him from drowning in a dirty pond is notorious for his dirty deeds but what cannot be forgotten are his achievements in the 1986 World Cup. The man is Maradona.
Forget the handball against England, feel the quality of his 50-yard solo goal in the same game and the near repeat performance in the semi-final against Belgium. The Argentina side of 1986 was functional and hard-working but it was Maradona who fired them to the final and then set up two of the goals in their 3-2 win over West Germany in the final.
In 1990, a barely-fit Maradona fought his way to the final where the Germans took their revenge. Fe w people shared Diego’s post-match tears. In fact many rejoiced that such an ugly brute of a team had lost.
Eight years before, in Spain, Maradona, then newly arrived at Barcelona, disgraced himself by being sent off in a Second Phase game with Brazil. Even four years before that the 18-year-old Maradona was a source of great controversy when he was left out of the victorious squad that won on home ground.
USA 1994 was the end for Maradona as a player. Right after the Nigeria game, he was picked for drugs-screening and tested positive for banned stimulant ephedrine (麻黄硷). He was banned from the rest of the tournament and the team fell apart, going out in the second round to Romania.
6. How many World Cups are mentioned in the passage?
A) Three.
B) Four.
C) Five.
D) Six.
7. Which country won the 1990 World Cup?

D) England.
8. Maradona won the World Cup ____.

B) twice
C) three times
D) four times
9. When in 1994, Maradona was driven out of the World Cup, he was close to ____.
A) 18
B) 24
C) 26
D) 31
10. According to the passage, Maradona is a man ____.
A) full of ideas
B) with cruel behaviors
C) having good luck
D) of great controversy
Passage Three
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Long hours at the screen can cause aching eyes, blurred vision and headaches, experts say. In fact, eyestrain surpasses even wrist pain as the top physical complaint among heavy computer users.
When peering into the computer screen, the eye’s focus ing muscle is at constant tension. Like any muscle, it feels sore when overloaded. And when someone spends a lot of time looking at something close, the eye muscle can get stuck on the near-focus setting and have difficulty relaxing, leaving the person temporarily nearsighted, a condition called accommodative spasm (痉挛) that can last seconds or hours.
This is why after looking at a monitor all day, some computer workers complain that their distance vision is blurred when they attempt to drive home.
The letters on the screen are not as clearly defined as on a printed page. Take a magnifying glass to your monitor and you’ll see the letters, each made up of pinpoint sources of light, have no sharp edges. But those liquid crystal display (LCD) monitors, like those found on laptop computers, are easier on the eyes because they display sharper images.
And studies have shown that when people are working on a computer, their rate of blinking goes down by two-thirds, which can result in dry, stinging eyes. This is especially a problem for contact-lens wearers.
11. ___ used to be the biggest physical problem that computer users had.
A) Dry eyes
B) Blurred vision
C) Headache
D) Wrist pain
12. Working hours before the screen will _____.
A) impose too much burd en on the eye’s focusing muscle
B) bring about near-sightedness
C) make it difficult for the user to learn driving
D) magnify the letters on the screen
13. LCD monitors are better in terms of eye protecting because ___.
A) they are more expensive
B) they w ill not blur the user’s eyes
C) they bring about no eye problems
D) they display letters with sharp edges
14. Dry, stinging eyes are caused by ___.
A) lower rate of blinking of the computer user’s eyes
B) letters on the screen without any edges
C) overburden on the focusing muscle
D) a constant tension
15. Which group of people are most likely to get dry, stinging eyes?
A) Drivers.
B) Doctors.
C) Glasses wearers.
D) Contact-lenses wearers.
Passage Four
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
Culture shock is the loss of emotional balance, disorientation, 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 th ey 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. There 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.
16. Culture shock is basically caused by ____.
A) difficulties in using the language
B) being unable to make new friends
C) severe homesick
D) being far away from all that is familiar
17. The culture shock suffered varies ____.
A) from person to person
B) from country to country
C) in accordance with people’s ages
D) in accordan ce with people’s characters
18. The first response a person tend to have when setting foot on a new land is ___.
A) feeling frustrated
B) feeling nervous
C) the sense of losing something precious
D) the sense of being abandoned
19. A home-coming trip will ____.
A) draw you back to reality
B) beautify the hometown
C) make you forget the troubles
D) help you solve the problems
20. Which is NOT a symptom of culture shock?
A) Not feeling like sleeping.
B) Having fear of being cheated.
C) Longing to go back home.
D) Having excessive concerns over delays.

Part IV Short Answer Questions (15 minutes)
Directions: In this part there is a short passage with some questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.
The Internet is a way of life for US college students, with research showing them to be one of the most connected demographic groups.
A recent study by Harris Interactive and 360 Youth revealed that 93 percent of American college students access the Internet, and this market is expected to grow from 15.2 million in 2003 to 16.4 million in 2007. That is slow but it could be attributed to the already high number of college Internet users. A whopping (庞大的) 88 percent of American college students own a computer, and more than half (56 percent) have broadband connections. Furthermore, 67 percent own cell phones and 36 percent use their mobile devices to access the Internet.
Study findings are that 42 percent go online mainly to communicate socially, and 72 percent of college students check emails at least once a day, with 66 percent using at least two email addresses. The most popular online social activity is forwarding messages to friends or family, with 37 percent of college students saying they do so. The study also looked beyond the Internet surfing habits and into the buying habits of this group, and found them responsible for more than US $210 billion in sales last year alone. College students have learned how to spend their money, with 93 percent saying low prices were important when shopping. The study also showed that 65 percent make loan payments; 41 percent of freshmen have a credit card; and 79 percent of seniors have a credit card. A significant number of charges on those credit cards are likely to be for entertainment and leisure expenses.
66. Why will the increase in Internet users among college students be comparatively slow in the
three years to come?
67. According to the study, what is the percentage of the American college students who don’t use cell phones to log on to the Internet?
68. What is the chief purpose of college students in accessing the Internet?
69. What is the percentage of the college students who borrow money from banks in order to pay for their purchases?
70. On what do college students mainly spend their money in the credit cards?

Calculate for a moment what could be done with even a part of those hours. Five thousand hours, I am told, are what a typical college undergraduate spends working on a bachelor's degree. In 10,000 hours you could have learned enough to become an astronomer or engineer. You could have learned several languages fluently. If it appealed to you, you could be reading Homer in the original Greek or Dostoyevsky in Russian. If it didn't, you could have walked around the world and written a book about it. The trouble with television is that it discourages concentration. Almost anything interesting and rewarding in life requires some constructive, consistently applied effort. The dullest, the least gifted of us can achieve things that seem miraculous to those who never concentrate on anything. But Television encourages us to apply no effort. It sells us instant gratification(满意). It diverts us only to divert, to make the time pass without pain. Television's variety becomes a narcotic(麻醉的), nor a stimulus. Its serial, kaleidoscopic (万花筒般的)exposures force us to follow its lead. The viewer is on a perpetual guided tour: 30 minutes at the museum, 30 at the cathedral, 30 for a drink, then back on the bus to the next attraction—except on television., typically, the spans allotted arc on the order of minutes or seconds, and the chosen delights are more often car crashes and people killing one another. In short, a lot of television usurps(篡夺;侵占) one of the most precious of all human gifts, the ability to focus your attention yourself, rather than just passively surrender it. Capturing your attention—and holding it—is the prime motive of most television programming and enhances its role as a profitable advertising vehicle. Programmers live in constant fear of losing anyone's attention—anyone's. The surest way to avoid doing so is to keep everything brief, not to strain the attention of anyone but instead to provide constant stimulation through variety, novelty, action and movement. Quite
