Passage A

There was once a professor of medicine, who was very strict with the students. Whenever he took the chair on the exam committee, the students would be in fear, because he was seldom pleased with the answer they gave. A student would be lucky enough if he or she could receive a good mark for him. At the end of the term, the students of medicine would take their exam again. Now a student entered the exam room and seated before the committee. This student was a little nervous as he knew it would not be so easy to get through the exam at all.

The professor began to ask. The student was described a certain illness, his description of which turned out to be OK.

Then the professor asked about the cure for illness, and the students, too, answered just as right.

“Good,” said the professor, “and how much will you give the patient?”

“A full spoon,” answered the student.

“Now you may go out and wait for what you can get,” said the professor. At the same time the committee discussed carefully the answers the student had given. Suddenly the student noticed that there was something wrong with his last answer. “A full spoon is too much,” he thought to himself. Anxiously he opened the door of the room and cried, “Mr. professor, I’ve made a mistake! A full spoon is too much for the patient. He can take only five drops.”

“I’m sorry, sir” said the professor coldly, “but it’s too late. Your patient has died.”

B. his last answer had been wrong

C. he had made a mistake

D. he had not done well in the exam

4. Which of the following is NOT true?

A. The patient will be in danger if he’s taken as much as a full spoon

B. The docter will be in trouble if he’s given the patient a full spoon.

C. Since one spoon is less than five drops, the patient will be all right soon if he takes only one full spoon at a time.

D. If the patient wants to remain safe, he should take no more than five drops at a time.

5. Which guess is the most reasonable from the passage?

A. The student must have passed the exam.

B. The student may not have passed the exam.

C. The student must have been very happy when he said, “Your patient has died.”

D. The professor must have been pleased and given the student good mark.

Passage B

Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.

Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds, and above all, the insects.

I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world and my enthusiasm had led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you see the answer to the riddle, because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.

But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist, up to point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.

6. The first paragraph tells us the author________.

A. was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood

B. lost his hearing when he was a child

C. didn’t like his brothers and sisters

D. was a born in a naturalist’s family

7. The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because______.

A. he didn’t live v ery long with them

B. the family was extremely large

C. he was too young when he lived with them

D. he was fully occupied with observing nature

8. It can be inferred from the passage that the author was________.

A. a scientist as well as a naturalist

B. a naturalist but not a scientist

C. no more than a born naturalist

D. first of all a scientist

9.The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because the thinks he_______.

A. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic

B. lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist

C. just reads about other peple’s observations and discoveries

D. comes up with solutions in a most natural way

10. According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be_______.

A. full of ambition

B. knowledgeable

C. full of enthusiasm

D. self-disciplined
