Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer fromthe four choices marked A, B, C and D. (40 points)Passage 1Culture shock might be called an expected disease of people who have suddenly moved to some foreign countries. Like most diseases, it has its own symptoms and cure.Culture shock is started by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and sights of social activities. Those signs or cues (提示) include the thousand and one ways in which we find our place in the situation of daily life: when to shake hands and what to say when we meet people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when5not. These cues, which may be words, gestures, expressions with the face, customs, or norms, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed. He or she is like a fish out of water. No matter how broad-minded or full of goodwill you may be, a number of supports have been knocked out from under you followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety. People respond 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 me feel bad." When foreigners in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure they are suffering from culture shock. Another stage of culture shock is regression. The home country suddenly assumes a great importance. To the foreigner everything becomes much greater than it really is. All the 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.71. According to the passage, culture shock is _________________.A. an expected disease of foreign peopleB. may lead to very serious symptomsC. actually not a diseaseD. something that can't be changed72. According to the passage, culture shock results from ________________.A. the sudden loss of our own signs and sights of social activitiesB. the sudden change of our daily habitsC. the sudden change of the social situation and customsD. the discomfort that we feel when faced with a foreigner73. Which one of the following may NOT be the symptoms of culture shock?A. You don't know how to express your thanks.B. You don't know how to greet other people.C. You suddenly forget what a word means.D. You don't understand why a foreigner acts in a certain way.74. How would a person who stays abroad most probably act when he is frustrated by theculture shock according to the passage?A. He is most likely to refuse to absorb the strange environment at first.B. He may begin to hate the people or things around him.C. He is ready to accept the change and change himself to the new environment.D. Although he takes the cultural differences to be regular, he still doesn't know whatto do with them.75. This passage is most likely taken from ______________.A. a news reportB. a grammar bookC. a book on medicine and psychologyD. an essay on human customsPassage 2Stare at the clock.Make silly drawings.Stare at the clock again.Complain about the weather.The clock? It's still there, ticking even more slowly.No, none of this was planned for the meeting.You'd love to get your work done, but instead you spend half your day in a meeting room.Office workers spend an average of 23 hours a week in meetings, according to the Wharton Center for Applied Research in the US. And, these workers consider only 58 percent of that time useful.It doesn't have to be this way. Here are a few guidelines for you to use meetings6effectively, not eat up your productivity.1)Know what you want. "Know precisely why the meeting is being held and deciderealistically what you intend to accomplish," says Gayle Brickman, a US communication instructor. "If you cannot write these two things down, the meeting should not take place."2)Figure out whether a face-to-face meeting is necessary. Would a group email beenough? A couple of phone calls? These ways would probably be more efficient with fellow workers you know well.3)Pick the right times. If possible, avoid planning meetings during your mostproductive hours. If everyone runs to the break room for coffee at 10:30 am, that would be an excellent time to have informal staff meetings.4)Be prepared. Read the plan for what needs to be done. Study the numbers on theproject you're putting forward. If there are papers to be discussed, hand them out the day before to those who will attend the meeting.5)Keep track of the time for them. Set apart a certain amount of time each week forthe meetings, and keep to it.If you still find yourself caught in meeting after meeting, don't feel bad. At least your organization obviously thinks your physical presence is valuable.76. A worker who is in a meeting that he doesn't want to take part in is likely to___________.A.draw funny picturesB. change the clockC. check the weatherD. plan another meeting77. Office workers think that _________ the time used in meetings is wasted.A. more than half ofB. almost all ofC. less than half ofD. none of78. In this passage, we are advised to follow some principles in order to __________.A. learn guidelinesB. eat up productivityC. make the most of meetingsD. increase production79. To decide whether a meeting is necessary, we may ask the following questions except"___________".A. Can I solve the problem by email or phone call?B. Will my fellow workers like to have this meeting?C. What is the purpose of this meeting?D. What do I intend to get from the meeting?80. It is a good time to have informal staff meetings ___________.A. when you and your coworkers are most productiveB. when all the staff are having a coffee breakC. before you hand out the information to be discussedB. when you can keep track of the timePassage 3You will be surprised how often people simply want to get things off their chests. All you have to do is just listen. Keep on listening. Don't answer back, and in nine cases out of ten, your staff will leave your room perfectly happy and satisfied.Even ordinary things should be noticed and appreciated. That's what the smart boss does. So you shouldn't just praise once and forget about it. If someone has done a good job, you should mention it again and again and again, because for most of us the desire for appreciation is never satisfied.Moreover, a good supervisor (监管者) certainly notices the changes in all members of his staff and asks about them. When a staff member is back from leave, the good7supervisor asks the staff member how he enjoyed his time off. He welcomes him back with a cheerful smile. It is just these small touches that make all the difference between a pleasant and unpleasant working environment.It is a fact that anyone loves being given attention, and you have to recognize it if you want good results when dealing with people. People crave (渴求) attention. And they will get it one way or another. If they can't get it by being constructive (建设性的), they will get it by being destructive (破坏性的). Don't ignore people. Even a few seconds of attention periodically (周期性地) can make all the difference.As a boss, before you yourself eat or look after your own needs, you must see to the needs of your people. You should also keep yourself in touch with the habits and ways of the people who work for you. Give them plenty of chances to say what they think. Encourage them to do so. This is one of the best ways to keep open the lines of communication. Do this often. Talk to your people. Get to know what's on their minds. Then you will be able to anticipate their needs and even stop trouble well before a matter becomes serious.81. It may be surprising that people in general just ___________________.A. feel happy and satisfied oftenB. wish to reveal their innermost feelingsC. listen to what others have to sayD. want to answer back when told something82. To be a smart boss, you should ____________________.A. only praise your staff members for a good job sometimesB. show your craving (渴求) for appreciation again and againC. take notice of ordinary things and show your appreciationD. do a good job and expect your staff members to praise you83. We can guess that these small touches of your care __________________.A. enhance the pleasant feelings at workB. urge your staff members to come backC. enable yourself to go on workingD. keep your staff members working hard84. It is a general fact that people _______________________.A. want good results in their workB. want to work without being botheredC. would become constructive (建设性的) when neglectedD. have a strong desire for attention85. The passage is mainly about _____________________.A. praise being better than criticismB. how to be a smart bossC. listening to your staffD. making a differencePassage 4Tonga is made up of about 150 islands located in the South Pacific Ocean. There are three main groups of islands—Vava'u in the north, Ha'apai in the middle, and Tongatapu in the south. Most of the eastern islands are made up of dead animal remains. The higher islands in the west were formed by a process of mountain building. Large areas on these islands are too mountainous to be used for crops. Some of the mountains are still active—which means that they can be dangerous. Many of the smaller islands do not have any people on them. There are only two large towns—Nukualofa, the capital, and Neiafu.These towns are Tonga's chief ports.Tonga has few natural resources. The most important resources are a pleasant sunny climate and natural beauty, which attract growing numbers of tourists. Because of its location, Tonga is sometimes hit by storms. One such storm, in 1982, caused high winds and huge waves that destroyed many homes, including almost all of the buildings in Nuku'alofa.Tonga was a British protected state from 1900 until 1970, when it became fully free from foreign rule again. Britain was responsible for Tonga's foreign affairs, but the Tongan8nobles still controlled local matters. For most of this period, Tonga was ruled by Queen Salote Tupou III. During the time of her leadership, education and health care were expanded and women were given the right to help choose the leaders. The Tongan government is a mixture of Polynesian tradition and Western methods. The government, in part, is made up of a seven-member body appointed by the king, seven nobles chosen by the nobles, and seven persons chosen by all adult citizens.Tonga's small size, lack of resources, and growing population have created problems. But the country is well governed, and sound plans for the future are being made.86. According to the passage, Tonga is ________.A. a small country to the North of the United StatesB. a country with very rich natural resourcesC. is a country made up of more than a hundred small islandsD. is a country whose government depends totally on Britain87. Which of the following statements about Tonga is NOT true?A. Tonga attracts large numbers of tourists every year.B. Tonga is subject to natural disasters because of it location.C. The islands in Tonga are quite fit for growing crops.D. Tonga doesn't have many large cities.88. What is true about Tonga's political status?A.

2010考研英语阅读理解精读100篇 UNIT 10
UNIT TENTEXT ONEWhen Princeton, the University of Virginia, and Harvard announced last fall that they would drop their early admissions options because they gave an unfair advantage to affluent students, many college counselors held their breath. Would early decision go the way of kegs in dormitories? Not for now, at least. Early admission is still going strong at many colleges and universities, including many top-tier schools.Early decision in particular--in which a student commits to a first-choice institution--is often touted as a plus for both schools and students. Colleges can lock up half of their class before January, and acceptance rates are typically higher than under regular admission. The major drawback of early decision is that it leaves students who are in the market for the best financial aid package out in the cold. By applying early, you must enroll if accepted, so comparing awards with those of other schools is out of the question. Schools like that, of course, because it helps their bottom line. But there is a possible end run: Ask if a school will release you from your obligation should its aid package fall short. In some cases, a school will roll you into the regular admission pool, allowing for comparison shopping come springtime.While some schools admit almost the same percentage of applicants during early and regular admission, many favor the early pool. Johns Hopkins University took 44 percent from its early round and 24 percent from the regular pool. Early birds at Hopkins make up a third of this fall's freshman class.Nonetheless, college counselors have seen borderline students get a boost by applying early decision. "If they aren't legacies, athletes, or an underrepresented minority, early decision may be the only hook that some students have," says Jim Conroy, chair of post-high-school counseling at New Trier Township High School in Winnetka, Ill. But you need to be realistic. "If a school is out of your reach, it's out of reach whether you apply early decision, early action, or regular admission," says Sarah Wilburn, a college counselor at Campus Bound in Quincy, Mass. "Move on and set some new goals."Advantage or not, applying early decision makes sense only if you're convinced that a school is a good fit for you. Erin Murray decided to apply to Dartmouth early despite the advice of her college counselor and others. They wanted her to beef up her transcript after she had spent a semester of high school in Italy. But the teenager from Cheyenne, Wyo., wisely played up her experience abroad (her 4.0 GPA and top-notch board scores didn't hurt, either) and was accepted. "I probably would have fit well at anumber of schools," she admits, "but Dartmouth was the only place I could see myself walking across the greens. It was a gut reaction."If you lack the same certainty but clinching a slot before New Year's is appealing, consider other early admissions plans. Early action is a nonbinding alternative that allows you to apply by November 1 and hear back before the regular application deadline. Some highly selective schools require that you submit only one early action application--called single-choice early action--meaning you can't apply early elsewhere. Another option is to apply early to rolling admissions, where an application that arrives in the fall may stand out more than one that arrives with most of the others in January.1. Which one of the following statements is NOT true of early decision?[A] Early decision is a common strategy adopted by universities to secure high rate of student enrollment.[B] Early decision begins to be abandoned by top American universities.[C] Early decision is a special treatment for rich students, athletes and minorities.[D] Early decision will still be in practice for a fairly long time.2. The major disadvantage of early decision is that_____[A] students can enjoy a less attractive the financial aid package if he chooses early decision.[B] it excludes students who are from lower social class or poor family background.[C] it does not allow students to choose the other better schools.[D] it excludes students who want to have comparison shopping.3. What Sarah Wilburn wants to suggest students is that_____ [A] early decision is not so advantageous as people think.[B] students should not regard early decision as the sole way to college.[C] students should evaluate themselves objectively before making early decision.[D] students should not limit themselves in early decision.4.Wyo applied to Dartmouthbecause_____[A] she was quite confident due to her rich experience of studying abroad. [B] the university‘s beautiful lawn aroused her affection.[C] she found Dartmouth the only one that fit her after researching a bunch of universities.[D] her 4.0 GPA and top-notch board scores were not so ideal.5. The following options can be adopted by students lacking certainty of which school to apply to except_____[A] applying to early action.[B] applying to rolling admissions.[C] applying to early decision. [D] applying single-choice early action.文章剖析：这篇文章主要讲述了美国的提前择校制度。
