Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneNearly a quarter-century after a German boy tossed a message in a bottle off a ship in the Baltic Sea, he's received an answer.A 13-year-old Russian, Daniil Korotkikh, was walking with hisparents on a beach when he saw something glittering lying in the sand."I saw that bottle and it looked interesting," Korotkikh told the Associated Press on Tuesday. "It looked like a German beer bottle with a ceramic (陶瓷的) plug, and there was a message in side."His father, who knows a little German, translated the letter. It said: "My name is Frank, and I am five years old. My dad and I are traveling on a ship to Denmark. If you find this letter, please write back to me, and I will write back to you."The letter, dated 1987, included an address in the town of Coesfeld.The boy in the letter, Frank Uesbeck, is now 29. His parents still live at the letter's address."At first I didn't believe it," Uesbeck told the AP about gettingthe responsefrom Korotkikh. In fact, he barely remembered the trip at all; his father actually wrote the letter.The Russian boy said he does not believe that the bottle actually spent 24 years in the sea. "It would not have survived in the water all that time," he said. He believed it had been hidden under that sand where he found it.In the web chat earlier this month, Uesbeck gave Korotkikh his new address to write to and promised to write back when he receives his letter."He'll definitely get another letter from me," the 29-year-old said.Uesbeck was especially thrilled that he was able to have a positive impact on a life of a young person far away from Germany.16、 The message in the bottle was found ______ years later.A. 25B. 24C. 29D. 20 17、 The letter in the bottle was written in ______.A. RussianB. EnglishC. FrenchD. German 18、 The letter in the bottle was actually written by ______.A. FrankB. KorotkikhC. Frank's fatherD. Korotkikh's father19、 Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Daniil Korotkikh believed the bottle must have stayed in the sea all the time before he got it.B. Frank, the German man gave the Russian boy his new address.C. Frank and Korotkikh have met each other through the web chat.D. It is likely that Frank and Korotkikh will arrange a meeting in person. 20、 That the letter is found and answered so many years lateris a(n) ______ to all the people.A. surpriseB. tragedyC. gloryD. honorPassage TwoToday, many people are starving to death. There is a shortage offood and the available food is too expensive for hungry people to buy. Therefore, they go without food, or each day have only one or two small meals lacking the necessary vitamins to maintain good health.Recently, a man who wanted to understand the conditions of such people conducted an experiment. He only ate one meal a day for a month but continued to work as he normally did.During the first five days he was hungry at his regular meal times, but after he had drunk a glass of water his hunger went away. In the evening, when he ate his one meal, he ate quickly and consumed a large amount. During the next five days, although he was not hungry during the day, he quickly noticed every food stall. And the smell of food caught his attention. During the third and fourth weeks, he had hunger pains and lack physical strength. He looked forward to his one meal and ate it very slowly, enjoying every bite. Without it, he knew he would have hardly enough energy to work.This experience changed his attitude about some things. Having a cup of tea was not just a pastime, it also gave him strength. He more frequently noticed overweight people and people who threw away leftoverfood. He realized the importance of food for the very hungry person. He could no longer easily pass by a hungry beggar on the street. But most importantly, he could now sympathize in a small way with the starving people of the world. 21、 According to the first paragraph, today the problem with many people is that ______.A. they don't eat foodB. they are too poor to buy foodC. the food they eat lacks vitaminsD. not enough food is provided to them22、 The man ate only one meal a day because ______.A. there was a serious shortage of foodB. it was an effective way of losing weightC. he wanted to know how hungry people could beD. he could not afford to have three meals a day23、 At first, when he was hungry he found that a glass of water______.A. got rid of his thirstB. could remove his hungerC. hardly produced any effectD. only made him feel hungrier 24、The experiment made the man realize that ______.A. most people are just eating for funB. overweight people are wasting foodC. food has a different meaning for peopleD. leftover foodshouldn't be thrown away25、 After the experiment was over, the man might have felt that______.A. hunger is less painful once you get used to itB. a man can survive for years on only one meal a dayC. you enjoy your food more if you go hungry for a whileD. something should be done for the hungry people of the worldPassage ThreeA college education is not just preparation for a career, however.In addition to taking courses in their major field of study, students enroll in elective (选修的) courses. They may take classes that help them understand more about people, nature, government, or the arts.Well-rounded people are likely to be better citizens, better parents and more interesting and interested individuals.Although two-thirds of American high school graduates go on to study in college, recent high school graduates no longer dominate the college campuses. Adults of all ages return to the classroom, either for new vocational skills or for personal growth. In 1966, for example, almost 20% of American college students were over age 35. Some 500,000 college students are over 50. American faith in the value of education is exemplified by the rising number of Americans who have at least a bachelor's degree. Almost one-quarter of Americans over age 25 are college graduates. College attendance is not reserved for the wealthyand the academically talented. It is available to anyone who wants to go. Right now about 15 million students are taking advantage of the opportunity. For those not academically prepared to handle college-levelwork, about 80% of undergraduate schools offer remedial (sometimes called developmental) classes in reading, writing and math.The U.S. has about 3,700 institutions of higher learning. About1,600 of these are 2-year schools. More than 2,000 are 4-year schools, many of which also have graduate programs. With so many colleges to choose from, how do prospective students find the right one for their needs? Information about schools is easy to obtain. Students can write for printed information and applications. Some schools even mail out video. Students can also use computer programs that allow them to specify particular interests and print out a list of schools that fit their description. Most institutions of higher learning also have web sites. Many schools send college representatives to high schools and two-year colleges to recruit students. Finally, many students visit colleges, take tours of campuses, and talk to counselors.26、 The word "well-rounded" in Paragraph 1 means ______.A. well developed in a range of aspectsB. rounded in shape or well developedC. well planned and balancedD. full, varied, and satisfying 27、According to the text, recent high school graduates ______ in American colleges.A. are a majorityB. are a minorityC. form two-thirds of the studentsD. are no more than adult students 28、 American colleges are for ______.A. the intelligentB. anyone who has a needC. the academically preparedD. the rich who can afford their education29、 How many methods can one use to obtain information about schools?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six. 30、 According to the passage,the most basic reason for the high rate of college enrollment is ______.A. social pressureB. easy access to collegesC. people's faith in educationD. the large number of collegesPassage FourA man from New York is suing four big fast-food companies. Caesar Barber is going to court because he says that high-fat foods at McDonald's, Burger King, Wendy's, and KFC Corporation destroyed his health. Barber says that he ate at these restaurants four or five timesa week for many years. He claims that this diet made him very overweight. According to Mr. Barber, obesity (肥胖症) gave him diabetes (糖尿病), high blood pressure, and two heart attacks. When a reporter asked him why he ate there so often, he said,"I was single, it was quick, and I'm not a very good cook."Barber's lawyer, Samuel Hirsch, says that the suit has two different purposes. The first is to make fast-food restaurants offer healthier foods in smaller amounts. The suit also asks that fast foods havewarning labels similar to labels on cigarettes. Mr. Hirsch says that these labels are necessary because the effects of fast foods are similar to the effects of cigarettes, alcohol, and illegal drugs such as heroin.Two others may soon join Barber's suit. One is Frances Winn, a 57-year-old retired nurse. Ms. Winn says that she has eaten at fast-food restaurants at least twice a week since 1975. She says that this habit has caused several health problems, including high blood pressure.Isreal Bradley, 59, said eating a pound of French fries every week gave him high blood pressure and diabetes.Officials of the fast-food industry attacked the legal action. National Restaurant Association representative Katharine Kim called it ridiculous. KFC spokeswoman Amy Sherwood claimed KFC offers several kinds of foods for people who want to eat healthier. Legal expert Walter Olson agreed that the suit had little chance of success. He said that people were free to make different choices.Whether or not the suit is successful, there is no doubt that Americans have a weight problem. Medical experts say that obesity will soon be America's number one killer. They have encouraged fast-food companies to offer healthier foods.31、 What does the word "suing" in the first sentence mean?A. Attacking.B. Mentioning.C. Complaining about.D. Taking a legal action against. 32、 Caesar Barber's problem is that ______.A. he does not have a familyB. he suffers diseases caused by overweightC. he has no time for cookingD. he lives near fast-food restaurants33、 By suing the four big fast-food companies, Caesar Barber wants to ______.A. get them punishedB. eat there at a lower priceC. warn the public of the harm of eating fast foodsD. replace them with better restaurants34、 The other two who may soon join Barber's suit ______.A. suffer similar diseases to hisB. eat as much fast food as he doesC. have a longer history of eating fast-foodD. visits the fast-food restaurants more often than he does 35、Fast-food restaurants are ______.A. indifferent to this caseB. very worried about this caseC. quite concerned about this caseD. quite optimistic about this casePart ?

As the most popular medicine in the world today, it is an effective pain reliever. Its bad effects are relatively mild, and it is cheap.Although aspirin was first sold by a German company in 1899, it has been around much longer than that. Hippocrates, in ancient Greece, understood the medical value of the leaves and tree bark which today are known to contain salicylates, the chemical in aspirin. During the 19th century there was a great deal of experimentation in Europe with this chemical, and it led to the introduction of aspirin. By 19l5, aspirin tablets(片剂) were available in the United States.For millions of people suffering from arthritis, aspirin is the only thing that works. A small quantity of aspirin (two five-grain tablets) relieves pain and inflammation. It also reduces fever by interfering with some of the body's reactions. Aspirin, in short, is truly the 20th-century wonder drug. On the other hand, it is also the second largest suicide drug and is the leading cause of poisoning among children. It has side effects that, although relatively mild, are largely unrecognized among users.Aspirin is very irritating to the stomach lining, and many aspirin takers complain about upset stomach. There is a right way and a wrong way to take aspirin. The best way is to chew the tablets before swallowing them with water, but few people can stand the bitter taste. Some people suggest crushing the tablets in milk or orange juice and drinking that.16. This article discusses __________.A. the multiple functions of aspirinB. how and why aspirin was inventedC. the history and the features of aspirinD. how to take aspirin properly17. According to the second paragraph, salicylates is __________.A. leaves and tree barksB. the old name of aspirinC. the name of a US companyD. a component of aspirin18. Which symptom can NOT be treated by aspirin?A. feverB. reactionsC. painD. inflammation19.

The author of this article seems to be__________.A. against the use of aspirinB. in favour of aspirinC. doubtful about aspirinD. not interested in aspirinPassage TwoDr. Mary Jo Bane is the associate director of the Center for Research on Women. Her recent study found “surprising evidence of the persistence of American commitments to family life”, which cast doubt on some common myths about American family.Myth 1: The American Family is Dying Because of the Soaring Divorce Rate.According to Dr. Bane’s study, the American family is changing, not dying. It is becoming smaller and the divorce rate is high. But Dr. Bane says that despite the high divorce rate, marriage has never been more popular. The majority of divorced people re-marry, but only 2％marry more than twice. Most marriages last a long time, and a large proportion of divorces are from teenage marriages. Depending on the specific situation, there’s often good reason for teenage marriages to break up.Myth 2: Working Mothers are Destroying the Family by Neglecting Their Children.“There’s no evidence tha t children receive less attention from mothers who work outside the home than from mothers working inside the home,” says Dr. Bane. “You have to divide the time into different categories: simple physical function and educational time or development time when a mother plays with the child. So far we haven’t seen the amount of educational or development time vary much, whether or not the mother works outside the home.” In fact, Dr. Bane finds evidence that working mothers, especially in the middle class, try to compensate for working by setting aside time exclusively for their children. “They probably read more to their children and spend more time in planned activities with them than nonworking mothers do.” says Dr. Bane.21. Dr. Mary Jo Bane’s study seems to suggest that _________.A. Americans are persistent in careerB. Americans are serious with their familiesC. American families are all breaking upD. American families are perfect as usual22. It can be inferred that the common myths of American family consider family life to be _________.A. in great dangerB. quite wonderfulC. changing too fastD. very satisfying23. According to the article, which of the following is true about marriage and divorce?A. Divorced people never consider a second marriage.B. Teenage couples often divorce out of no reason.C. Less and less people plan to get married.D. Very few people have a third or fourth marriage.24. For the children whose mothers go out to work, __________.A. it is better to have mothers at homeB. almost no attention is paid to themC. no less attention is paid to themD. a lot of time is spent playing gamespared with nonworking mothers, working mothers________.A. spare less time to stay with their childrenB. do more educational activities with childrenC. do very little simple physical houseworkD. avoid disturbing their work by family dutiesPassage ThreeCrime has its own cycles, a magazine reported some years ago. Police records that were studied for five years from over 2,400 cities and towns show a surprising link between changes in the season and crime patterns in UK.The pattern of crime has varied very little over a long period of years. Murder reaches its high during July and August, as do rape and other violent attacks. Murder, moreover, is more than seasonal: it is a weekend crime. It is also a nighttime crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 p. m. and 6 a. m.Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, burglary has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p. m. and 2 a. m. on a Saturday night in December, January or February. The most uncriminal month of all is May; however, more dog bites are reported in this month than in any other month of the year.On the other hand, our intellectual seasonal cycles are completely different from our criminal tendencies. Professor Huntington, of the Foundation for the Study of Cycles, made extensive studies to discover the seasons when people read serious books, attend scientific meetings, make the highest scores on examinations, and propose the most changes to patents. In all instances, he found a spring peak and an autumn peak separated by a summer low. On the other hand, Professor Huntington's studies indicated that June is the peak month for suicides and admissions to mental hospitals. June is also a peak month for marriages!26. The seasonal cycle of crime patterns is proved by_________.A. the figures in police recordsB. 2,400 cities and townsC. a magazine reportD. the studies by police officers27. According to paragraph 2, a murder would most possibly occur on _________.A. a weekday morning in springB. a weekday morning in autumnC. a weekend night in summerD. a weekend night in winter28. What makes May a special month of the year?A. All types of crimes happen in May.B. There is no crime happened in May.C. Criminals increase in number in May.D. Dog attacks are most frequent in May.29. Which behavior is NOT an example of human intellectual activities?A. Reading books on philosophy.B. Attending wedding ceremony.C. Working on mathematics questions.D. Innovating engineering machinery.30. According to Professor Huntington’s study, June is the peak month when people _________.A. get divorcedB. recover from mental illnessC. try to kill themselvesD. climb high and low mountainsPassage FourIn Lusaka, Zambia, a young man applying for a job was told to see the manager. He leaned over the receptionist’s desk and asked. “What tribe（部落）is he?” When the receptionist told him that the manager was a Mashona, the applicant replied, “Then I'll never get the job.”This phenomenon is called tribalism（部落主义）. There are more than 2,000 tribes in black Africa. Each has its own language, customs, and physical characteristics that make its members almost immediately recognizable to a person from another tribe. To the Westerner, tribalism is one of the most difficult of African customs to understand. It makes many people think of savagery, warfare, or old-fashioned customs.However, to most Africans, tribalism simply means very strong loyalty to one’s ethnic group. It is a force that can be both good and bad. By definition tribalism means sharing among members of the extended family. It makes sure that a person is taken care of by his own group tribesman. To give a job to a fellow is not wrong; it is an obligation. Similarly, for a politician or military leader, it is considered good common sense to choose his closest advisers from people of his own tribe. This ensures security, continuity, and authority. Tribal loyalty may mean a quick promotion—from sergeant to captain, from clerk to manager—within a very short time.Modern African politicians publicly speak out against tribal divisions. Yet it remains perhaps the most powerful force in day-to-day African life.31. In paragraph 1, why did the young man believe his job application will be refused?A. His behavior was not appropriate.B. He belonged to the same tribe with the manager.C. He didn’t belong to the same tribe with the manager.D. His questions annoyed the receptionist.32. The situation in the first paragraph is an example of_______.A. the difficulty of getting a job in AfricaB. the disagreement on tribalism among AfricansC. the great numbers of tribes in AfricaD. the importance of tribalism in Africa33. What might be the common attitudes of Westerners towards tribalism?A. positiveB. indifferentC. negativeD. none of the above34. According to the article, which of the following is NOT an evidence of tribalism?A. Sergeants maintain security in his own tribe.B.Politicians choose men from his own tribe as intimate advisers.C. Military leaders promote fellow tribesmen to higher positions.D. Managers give jobs to fellow tribesmen.35. What would be the future of tribalism?A. It will soon be destroyed by modern politicians.B. It will remain as strong as it is today and never be changed.C. It will gradually disappear as the society develops.D. It will speed up further division of tribes.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.
