For each question there are four choices marked A. B. C. and D. Choose the best answer to each of the questions. Passage OneLast week I visited one of my old neighborhoods in Washington D.C.I had not been there for twenty years and as I walked along the street, my mind was flooded by memories of the past. I saw the old apartment building where I had lived and the playground where I had played. As Iviewed these once familiar surroundings, images of myself as a child there came to mind. However, what I saw and what I remembered were not the same.I sadly realized that the best memories are those left untouched.My old apartment building, as I remember, was bright and alive. It was more than just a place to live. It was a movie house, a space station, or whatever my young mind could imagine. I would steal away with my friends and play in the basement. This was always exciting because it was so cool and dark, and there were so many things there to hide among. There was a small river in the back of the building. We would go there to lie in the shade of trees and enjoy ourselves.However, what I saw was completely different. The apartment building was now in disrepair. What was once more than a place to live looked hardly worth living in. The windows were all broken. The once clean walls were covered with dirty marks. The river was hardly recognizable. The water was polluted and the trees and flowers were all dead. The once sweet smelling river now smelled terrible. It was really heartbreaking to see all this.I do not regret having seen my old neighborhood. However, I do not think my innocent childhood memories can ever be the same. I suppose it is true when they say, "You can never go home again."41.

And he thinks it will make more than ￡15,000 by next summer.He set up Peter Blackburn Company last year to bring out a new term-planner that now students all over the UK are using.“I felt that mo st of the planners going around were pretty unimaginative,” he says “I believed that I could do a better job and decided to have a go.”Blackburn admits that he is putting far more effort into business than his computer studies course at university. While fellow students are out with their friends, he keeps in touch with his business office in Lancashire by mobile phone. Before he set up the company he spent on holiday preparing a plan that would persuade the bank to lend him money.“Most students work hard for a good degree because they believe that will help them get a job to support themselves,” he says, “I work hard at my company because that is what will support me next year, after I leave college.”Friends believe that Blackburn will make one million pounds within five years.

In fact, I remember the evening I was at a girlfriend’s house, and we were watching a movie—a terribly romantic movie. He (the hero of the movie) was in love, she (his lady) was beautiful, and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mother’s purse, and she gave one to me. It was my first time.My parents didn’t care much. They both smoked, and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers don’t grow tall, but I was already5’6”(taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that “fact”. In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful, and the women were well, they were beautiful and sophisticated.I read a book called how to stop smoking. The writer said that smoking wastes time, and that cigarettes cost a lot of money. “So what”I thought, the book didn’t say that smoking can take away years of your life. But ten years later, everyone began to hear about the negative effects ofcigarette smoke: lung disease, cancer, and heart problems. After that, there was a health warning on every pack of cigarettes. I didn’t pay much attention to the reports and warnings. I felt healthy, and I thought I was taking good care of myself.Then two events changed my mind. First, I started to cough. I thought it was just a cold, but it didn’t get better. Second, my brother got lung cancer. He got sicker and sicker. My brother and I used to smoke cigarettes together over twenty years age, and we smoked our last cigarettes together the day before he died. I sat with him in his hospital room, and I decided to quit. “NO more cigarettes, ever,” I said to myself.However, it was very hard to stop, Nicotine is a drug; as a result, cigarettes cause a powerful addiction. I tried several times to quit on my own—without success. I made excuses. I told myself: Smoking helps me keep my figure—. I don’t gain weight when I smoke. Smoking not only relaxes me but it also helps me think clearly. I’m a free, liberated woman.I can smoke when I want to.Finally, I ran out of excuses—I might say my excuses went up in smoke.I joined the “Stop Smoking” program at the local hospital, which also ended up in failure.47. How the writer started smoking shows the powerful influence of __________.A. educational institutionsB. one’s social statusC. the mass mediaD. public opinions48. The “fact” in Paragraph 2 refers to __________.A. her admiration for the men in the adsB. her mother’s warning that smokers don’t grow tallC. her height of 5’6”D. the teachers’ negative attitude towards smoking49.

Please choose the ONE that best fits into the passage, then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.In Japan, most people still feel that a woman’s place is in the home; and most women willingly accept their 51 role as wife, leaving the business of making a living up to their husbands. For those who do want a 52 of their own, opportunities are limited, and working women usually have to settle for lower wages, fewer promotions, less responsible positions.In America, on the other hand, most women, 53 wives and mothers, work most of their lives. But 54 , few have had real careers. As in Japan most fields are dominated by men and opportunities for women have been restricted, salaries low, chances for advancement rare. American women work mainly because they 55 ; in these days of inflation and luxury living, one income per family is simply not enough to 56 . So American women actually have two jobs: one nine-to-five position outside the home, and 57 round-the-clock-in-the-home job as wife, housemaid, cook, and nurse.One of the main goals of the modern women’s liberation movement, which started 58 , was to eliminate sex discrimination in the work force, and to open up careers for women that were previously reserved for men.
