He utilizes the facts he observes to the fullest extent. For example, trained observes obtain a very large amount of information about a star (e.g. distance, mass, size, rate of movement etc.) mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum (光谱).He is skeptical (怀疑的) and he does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available –and therefore rejects authority as the sole basis for truth. Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively to prove them.Furthermore, he is not only critical of the work of others, but also of his own, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.Lastly, he is highly imaginative since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete. Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to make hypotheses（假设）of how processes work and how events take place.These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist thinks and acts.21.

A scientist is critical of his own work because he knows that he is______.A. aware of his own findings C. liable to be wrongB. likely to be criticized D. capable of being entirely objective25. The word “imaginative” (Line 1, Paragraph 4 ) most probably means .A. accurate and objective C. curious and seriousC. creative and inventiveD. skeptical and critical(2)At sixteen Ron Mackie might have stayed at school, but the future called to him excitedly. “Get out of the classroom into a job.”It said and Ron obeyed. His father, supporting the decision, found a place for him in a supermarket. “You’re lucky, Ron, “he said. “ For every boy with a job these days, there’s a dozen with-out.” So Ron joined the working world at twenty pounds a week.For a year he spent his days filling shelves with tins of food. By the end of that time he was looking back on his school days as a time of great variety and satisfaction. He searched for an interest in his work, with little success.One fine day instead of going to work Ron got a lift on a lorry going south. With nine pounds in his pocket, a full heart and a great longing for the sea, he set out to make a better way for himself. That evening, in Bournemouth, he had a sandwich and a drink in a café run by an elderly man and his wife. Before he had finished the sandwich, the woman had taken him on for the rest of the summer, at twenty pounds a week, a room upstairs and three meals a day. The ease and speed of it rather took Ron’s breath away. At quiet times, Ron had to check the old man’s arithmetic in the records of the business.At the end of the season, he stayed on the coast. He was again surprised how straightforward it was for a boy of seventeen to make a living. He worked in shops mostly, but once he took a job in a hotel for three weeks. Late in October he was taken on by the sick manager of a shoe shop.Ron soon found himself in charge there, he was the only one who could keep the books.26．Why did Ron Machie leave school at sixteen ? ________．A．His father made him leaveB．He had reached the age when he had to leave.C．He left because he was worried about the future.D．He left because he wanted to start work27．What did Ron’s father think about his leaving school?A．He thought his son was doing the right thingB．He advised him to stay at school to complete his educationC．He did not like the idea, but he helped Ron to find work.D. He knew there was a job for every boy who wanted one28．It took about a year for Ron to realize that _________.A．He worked well because he was interested in the job.B．His work at the supermarket was dullC．Being at work was much better than going to schoolD．The store manager wanted to get rid of him.29．Why did Ron leave the supermarket ?_________．A．He knew he would find work in BournmouthB．He took a job as lorry driverC．He gave up the job because he felt unwell.D．he wanted to work at the seaside30．Ron was able to take over the shoe shop because________．A．He got on well with the manager there.B．He knew how to keep the accounts of the businessC．he had had experience of selling booksD．He was young and strong.(3)Why was Bastille important to the citizens of Paris? The building of the Bastille had been started in 1370 under Charles V. By the seventeenth century it had stopped to be important for defense. Cardinal Richelieu turned it into a prison. It was not an ordinary prison to punish common crimes. Its huge doors closed only on enemies of the King. The Bastille’s workings were secret. Prisoners were taken to it in closed vehicles. Soldiers on guard duty had to stand with their faces to the wall. No talking was allowed. Worst of all, a prisoner never knew if he would be there a day, a week, a year, or forever. Only the King’s letter could set him free.Over the years the number of arrests by King’s letter had become fewer. By the time of its fall, most of the prisoners were writers who had written against the corruptions (贪污腐败) of the government. Voltaire, the famous French writer, spent a year there in 1717-1718, and another 12 days in 1726.For those who believed in free speech and free thinking, the Bastille stood for everything evil. The day it was captured, only seven prisoners were found inside. Still, the Bastille was hated by the people. It was a symbol of the King’s complete power.31. The Bastille became a prison ___________.A. since the time of Charles VB. since 1370C. in the seventeenth centuryD. since the time of Cardinal Richelieu32. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Anyone who did something wrong could find himself suddenly in the Bastille.B. The Bastille was only for those who were opposed to the King.C. Things done in the Bastille were hardly known to people outside.D. Voltaire was twice put in the Bastille.33. At the time of its fall, the Bastille housed _____________.A. a large number of prisonersB. a lot of writers who had been against the governmentC. some dozens of people who believed in free speech and free thinkingD. only a few prisoners34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. All prisoners in the Bastille had to stay there for life.B. Over the years the number of prisoners in the Bastille was getting bigger and bigger.C. The King could put people in or let them out of the Bastille as he wanted.D. At the time it was captured, there were so few prisoners in it that it meant little to the people.35. This passage mainly ________________.A. tells how the prisoners were controlled by the KingB. tells how little was known about the BastilleC. shows the inner workings of the BastilleD. gives a brief history of the Bastille(4)An earthquake is caused by a sudden on a fault(断层). A fault is a fracture in the crust(地壳) of the earth along which rocks on one side have moved relative to those on the other side. Stresses in the earth’s outer layer push the side of the fault together, build up and the rocks slips suddenly, releasing energy in waves that travel though the rock to cause to cause the shaking that we feel during an earthquake.Earthquakes tend to be concentrated in narrow zones. There are 7 major crustal plates on earth, about 80 km thick, all in constant motion relative to one another. They move at between 10 and 130 mm per year.It is estimated that there are several million earthquakes in the world each year. Many of these earthquakes go undetected because they occur in the remote areas or have very small magnitudes(震级). The USGS Earthquake Information Center locates 12, 000 to 14,000 earthquakes each year (about 35 per day ). On average, about 60 earthquakes per year are classified as significant, with 19 classified as major. A significant earthquakes is one of magnitude 6.5 or higher or one of lesser magnitude that causes casualties (伤亡) or considerable damage. Major earthquakes have a magnitude larger than 7.0.36. The main idea of the passage is ______.A how earthquakes are formed and classifiedB. how earthquakes can be predicted and locatedC. earthquakes do not so often occur on the earthD. earthquakes are considered to be a threat to humans.37.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A. Earthquakes of large magnitudes casualties.B. Earthquakes often happen in narrow zones.C. Earthquakes involve the release of energy.D. Earthquakes can cause waves in the sea.38. What can we learn from the passage?A. Scientists can locate most earthquakesB. Earthquakes are very common on the earthC. Scientists can find a way to prevent earthquakes.D. More earthquakes of higher magnitudes are detected than those of lower ones.39. How do scientists distinguish a signification earthquake from a major earthquake?A. A significant earthquakes is of higher magnitude.B. A significant earthquakes can kill more peopleC. A major earthquakes is of higher magnitudeD. A major earthquakes is of lower magnitude40. The word “ fracture”(Line 1, Paragraph 1) most probably means ______.A. a stress in the crust C. an outer layer of the crustB. a large hole in the rock D. a cracked part in the rockPart III: Cloze (10%)The proficient athlete possesses natural sporting abilities and very good physical coordination, but___41___ these physical assets he/she must be in superb（杰出的）physical condition.

Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction of TV, they might sit around together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our problems—everything, in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illness--- are caused at least in part by failure to communicate. We do not tell each other what is disturbing us. The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another. By using the quiet family hour to1discuss our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better.六(Reading comprehension(20ˊ)AFor some minutes, all was quiet in the street. Then from across the street someone came walking.It looked like a man of middle height, dressed in a big raincoat, a soft hat and rubber-soled boots or shoes, and making little sound whilewalking. No one was in sight. It was a street with two rows of aboutfifty small houses and there were three lamps on either side. The lamp nearest to the child’s house could be seen clearly, but the others were almost hidden by the smoky air. A car passed the end of the street and its lights showed faintly，but clearly enough to show the s mooth skin of a woman’s face. The car disappeared as the woman, wrapped up in her coat, reached the doorway of the child’s house. She put a key in the lock quickly, pushed the door open and stepped inside, then closed the door without looking round. She began to breathe hard.She leaned against the door for a moment, then straightened up as if with an effort, and walked towards the door of the front room, the passage leading to the kitchen, and the narrow staircase. She hesitated outside the door, then went up the stairs quickly but with hardly a sound. There was enough light from the narrow hall to show the four doors leading off a small landing(楼梯平台). Shepushed each door open in turn and shone a torch inside, and thelight fell upon beds, walls, furniture, a bathroom hand-basin, a mirror which flashed brightness back; but this was not what the woman was looking for. She turned away and went downstairs, and hesitated again at the foot of the stairs, then turned towards the kitchen. Clearly there was nothing there, or in the small washroom that she wanted. Two rooms remained; the front room and a smaller one next to it. She opened the front room door. After a moment, she saw the child’s bed and the child.1. The lights of the car passing the end of the street showed that______.A. a woman was driving the carB. someone was standing by a street lamp.C. a man and a woman were walking up the street.D. a woman was walking by herself up the street.2. After the woman closed the front door, she ___________.A. looked round quicklyB. started breathing againC. rested before movingD. walked straight towards the front door3.

Ten inches of rain may be enough for many plants to survive (存活)if the rain is spread throughout the year, If it falls, within one or two months and the rest of the yearis dry, those plants may die and a desert may form.Sand begins as tiny pieces of rock that get smaller and smaller as wind and weather wear them down. Sand dunes (沙丘) are formed as winds move the sandacross the desert. Bit by bit, the dunes grow over the years, always moving with the winds and changing the shape. Most of them are only a few feet tall, but they can grow to be several hundred feet high.There is, however, much more to a desert than sand. In the desertsof thesouthwestern United States, cliffs (悬崖) and deep valleys were formed fromthick mud that once lay beneath a sea more than millions of years ago. Over the centuries, the water dried up. Wind, sand , rain, heat and cold all wore away at the remaining rocks. The faces of the desert mountains are always changing —very, very slowly —as these forces of nature continue to work on the rock.Most deserts have a surprising variety of life. There are plants, animals and insects that :have adapted to life in the desert. During the heat of the day, a visitor may see very few signs of living things, but as the air begins to cool in the evening, the desert comes to life. As the sun begins to rise again in the sky, the desert once again becomes quiet and lonely.9. Many plants may survive in deserts when___________.A. the rain is spread out in a yearB. the rain falls only in a few weeksC. there is little rain in a yearD. it is dry all the year round 10. Sand dunes are formed when___________.A. sand piles up graduallyB. there is plenty of rain in a yearC. the sea has dried up over the yearsD. pieces of rock get smaller411. The underlined sentence in the third paragraph probably meansthat in a desert there is____________.A. too much sandB. more sand than beforeC. nothing except sandD. something else besides sand 12 It can be learned from the text that in a desert____________.A. there is no rainfall throughout the yearB. life exists in rough conditionsC. all sand dunes are a few feet highD. rocks are worn away only by wind and heatDLetter to Editor of TV WeeklyDear Sir/Madam,I read Alison Burnham’s review of When we were 12, and I do not agree withher. I thought the programme was wonderful — I found the old news picturesreally interesting — they helped to bring to life the stories the people were telling.The programme reminds me of many things from my own childhood. For example, one day when I was about five, I was going to school on the bus by myself (this was the late 1960s). My mother had given me exactly the right money for a return ticket. I held out my hand with the money init — one bigcoin on top of one little coin. The bus conductor took the big top coin only and she gave me a ticket, but it was a pink one for a single journey. I needed a white one for a return journey, but I was too frightened to say anything. When school finished for the day, Icouldn’t catch the bus home — I had to walk. As agrown-up, whenever I’ve been in a situation where I need to say something or take some action, this early memory of my bus ride comes back to me, and I’mable to take control of the situation.I would like to say to the director, Bret Chrysler, carry on making this kind of programme. Too much TV these days is quiz shows and so called “realityprogrammes”.I appreciate the human story that can make me laugh and cry.Yours faithfully,Chris Daniels13. What is Chris Daniels’ purpose of writing this letter?A. To persuade Bret Chrysler to turn away from quiz shows.B. To entertain other readers with old news pictures.C. To express his appreciation of the programme.D. To have his story told on the programme.14. Chris Daniels tells the story about the bus ticket to .A. describe how painful his early experience was5B. draw a direct response from Alison BurnhamC. show how the programme made him thinkD. teach the readers of TV Weekly a lesson15. According to the passage, Chris Daniels had to walk home because .A. he hadn’t got a return ticketB. he had lost his bus ticketC. he didn’t like big crowdsD. he missed the bus home16. What does Chris Daniels now think about his experience on the bus?A. He should have told the conductor then.B. He should have been well treated.C. He regrets going to school alone.D. He wishes it hadn’t happened.ET-shirts out; uniforms inSchool uniforms are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A. That’s no surprise, because they offer many benefits. They immediate ly end the powerful social sorting and labeling (标记) that come from clothing. If allstudents are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the “wrong” clothes.Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule — wanting to look just liketheir friends. The difference is that the clothing students choosefor themselves creates social barriers; school uniforms tear those barriers down.As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposesand duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform,he or she becomes,for a time, the symbol (象征) of law and order. The uniform means tothe wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kind or another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children’s “creativity.” First, as noted above, the clothes studentschoose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality (个性). They justcopy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they’re in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.17. In Paragraph 1, the word “benefits” probably means .6A. tasksB. messagesC. differencesD. advantages18. From the passage we learn that uniforms in general .A. prevent the wearers from being laughed atB. help the wearers keep their duties in mindC. are seen as a symbol of powerD. help to create social barriers19. Some people are against school uniforms because .A. they fail to realize that students have accepted the uniformsB. they believe that uniforms will make students less creativeC. they don’t agree that uniforms can remove social barriersD. they think that school uniforms are too popular20. The author would probably agree that .A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or notB. students’ individuality may not come from school educationC. students’ creativity is related to the clothes they chooseD. school uniforms help to create equality among students七、Cloze(10ˊ)On May 27, 1995, our life was suddenly changed. It happened a few minutes past three, 1 my husband, Chris, fell from his horse as it 2 over a fence. Chris was paralyzed (瘫痪) from the chest down, 3 to breathe normally. As he was thrown from his horse, we entered into a life of 4with lots of unexpected challenges. We went from the "haves" to the “have-nots".

Then, suddenly, all of the young people were up out of their seats, screaming and shouting and crying, doing small dances of joy. All except Vingo.Vingo sat there stunned, looking at the oak tree. It was coveredwith yellow handkerchiefs — 20 of them, 30 of them, maybe hundreds, a tree that stood like a banner of welcome billowing in the wind. As the young people shouted, the old con slowly rose from his seat and made his way to the front of the bus to go home.五、Translate the following passage into Chinese.(10’)Let us take a serious, reasonable look at what the results might be if such a proposal were accepted. Families might use the time for a real family hour. Without the distraction of TV, they might sit around together after dinner and actually talk to one another. It is well known that many of our problems—everything, in fact, from the generation gap to the high divorce rate to some forms of mental illness--- are caused at least in part by failure to communicate. We do not tell each other what is disturbing us. The result is emotional difficulty of one kind or another. By using the quiet family hour to discuss our problems, we might get to know each other better, and to like each other better.六、阅读理解(20×1ˊ=20ˊ)1--5 DCDBC 6--10 BBAAA 11--15. DBCCA 16--20.

They have always complained, more or less justly, that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they are possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems —and that they have no sense of humour, at least in parent-child relationships.I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt when young.Young people often irritate their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet been accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste.Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog: you can’t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents’ control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of that plan. You can charm others, especially your parents, into doing things the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do.31. The author is primarily addressing ________.A. parents of teenagersB. those who give advice to teenagersC. newspaper readersD. teenagers32. The first paragraph is mainly about________.A. the teenagers’ criticism of their parentsB. misunderstandings between teenagers and their parentsC. the dominance of the parents over their childrenD. the teenagers’ ability to deal with crises33. Teenagers tend to have strange clothes and hairstyles because they ________.A. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their ownB. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and tasteC. have no other way to enjoy themselves betterD. want to irritate their parents34. Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do because they________.A. have already been accepted into the adult worldB. feel that they are superior in a small way to the adultsC. are not likely to win over the adultsD. have a desire to be independent35. To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be ________.A. obedientB. co-operativeC. responsibleD. independentPassage 2The effects of long-distance running are psychologically uplifting. In a world full of tensions, cruelty and chaos, running helps reinforce the view that life is good and lead the runner to tranquility and harmony.Long-distance running helps a person forget pressing family problems as well as job-related annoyances. An example comes quickly to mind. One day I had a terrible fight with my landlady over some foolish incident. We screamed and yelled at each other. A few minutes later, I set out on my daily run. By the end of the first mile, the argument seemed like a bad dream. At the end of the second, the reason for it seemed trivial. By the end of the fourth mile, I was filled with feelings of remorse and forgiveness toward the landlady. I bought her a beautiful rose, which I gave her as soon as I stepped inside the house. All was quickly well again between us. Running has that kind of effect on most runners. It makes us feel benign and serene.Incorporating long-distance running into a daily routine will significantly change a runner’s life-style. After I had been running for some time I found that I had more energy and could do more. My days grew longer, because I seemed to need less sleep; what sleep I did get seemed more restful. My body became thinner, smoother, firmer. Running also produces a healthful feeling of pleasant excitement, which comes from adherence to a strict routine and the improved physical condition. So, running makes me feel good, about myself and about the world.There are other long-term effects of running which are beneficial. But what benefits running does offer me are already enough to make me addicted to the sport for the rest of my life.36. We can learn from the passage that the author’s attitude towards long-distance running is _________.A. indifferentB. popularC. positiveD. negative37. The meaning of “reinforce” in th e first paragraph is probably ________.A. negateB. createC. criticizeD. strengthen38. The author gives his own example in the second paragraph to illustrate that________.A. it is foolish to quarrel with the landlordB. long-distance running helps you to forget your problems and annoyanceC. we should be friendly with othersD. long-distance running makes you stronger39. Why does long-distance running produce a healthful feeling of pleasant excitement?A. Because you adhere to a routine.B. Because your physical condition is improved.C. Because you meet less unpleasant things in your life.D. Both A and B40. What does the author mean by the last sentence of the passage?A. He will keep the good habit of long-distance running.B. He will ask his family to run with him.C. He will write an article about the benefit of running.D. He will search for other long-term effects of running for the rest of his life.Passage 3Scientists estimate that about 35,000 other objects, too small to detect with radar but detectable with powerful Earth-based telescopes, are also circling the Earth at an altitude of 200 to 700 miles. This debris poses little danger to us on the Earth, but since it is traveling at average relative speeds of six miles per second , it can severely damage expensive equipment in a collision. This threat was dramatized by a cavity one-eighth of an inch in diameter created in a window of a United States space shuttle in 1983. The pit was determined to have been caused by a collision with a speck of paint traveling at a speed of about two to four miles per second. The window had to be replaced.As more and more nations put satellites into space, the risk of collision can only increase.Measures are already being taken to control the growth of orbital debris. The United States has always required its astronauts to bag their wastes and return them to Earth. The United States Air Force has agreed to conduct low-altitude rather than high-altitude tests of objects it puts into space so debris from tests will reenter the Earth's atmosphere and burn up. Extra shielding will also reduce the risk of damage. For example, 2,000 pounds of additional shielding is being considered for each of six space-station crew modules. Further, the European Space Agency, an international consortium, is also looking into preventive measures.41. It can be inferred from the passage that debris was harmful to one of the space shuttles because the debris was________.A. largeB. moving very fastC. radioactiveD. burning uncontrollably42. What effect did orbital debris have on one of the space shuttles?A. It removed some of the paintB. It damaged one of the windowsC. It caused a loss of altitudeD. It led to a collision with a space station43. The word “them” in the second paragraph (Line 4) refers to which of the following?.A. AstronautsB. WastesC. TestsD. Crew modules44. Which of the following questions is NOT answered by the information in the passage? .A. How can small objects orbiting the Earth be seenB. What is being done to prevent orbital debris from increasingC. Why is the risk of damage to space equipment likely to increaseD. When did the United States Air Force begin making tests in space45. What are the main points included in the second paragraph?A. More and more nations put satellites into space.B. The space race is a waste of money.C. Orbital debris will reduce the risk of damage.D. Measures are being taken for protecting spacing vehicles against damage by space debris. Part 3 ClozeIt's never easy to admit you are in the 1 . 2 human, we all need to know the art of apologizing. Look 3 with honesty and think how 4 you've judged roughly, said unkind things, pushed yourself ahead at the 5 of a friend. Then count the 6 when you indicated clearly and truly that you were sorry. A bit frightening, isn't it? Frightening because some deep wisdom in us knows that when even a small wrong has been committed, some mysterious moral feeling is disturbed, and it strays out of 7 until fault is acknowledged and regret expressed.I remember a doctor friend, the late Clarence Lieb, telling me about a man who came to him8 a variety of signs: headaches, insomnia (失眠) and stomach trouble. No physical 9 could be found. Finally Dr. Lieb said to the man, “Unless you tell me what’ s 10 you, I can’t help you.”After some hesitation, the man 11 that, as executor ( 指定遗嘱执行人) of his father’s will, he had been cheating his brother, who lived abroad, of his inheritance. 12 and there the wise old doctor made the man write to his brother asking for forgiveness and 13 a cheque as the first 14 in restoring their good relation. He then went with him to the mailbox in the corridor. As the letter disappeared, the man burst into tears. “Thank you,” he said, “I think I’m 15 .” And he 16 .A heartfelt apology can not only heal 17 relationship but also make it stronger.

In today’s ma terial world, making money or becoming wealthy symbolizes a person’s success and capability. Many people just make every effort, pay any price to attain greater wealth. With money, they can buy nice, large apartments in nice neighborhood; with money, they can own stately luxury cars. Wealth seems to bring all happiness in life.In my opinion, people cannot do anything without money, but money is not everything. What money will bring you depends on your personal belief and goal in life. If you are kind enough to help others, especially the poor, money is a good thing to you. By using money you can do much more for the benefit of people and your country, and it will bring you your own happiness. If you make money just for your own needs, you’ll never be s atisfied or happy.In a word, you should have money spent for more people. Only then can money be the source of your happiness.试题二ⅠVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: This section is to test the use of vocabulary and structure. There are 20 incomplete sentences in it.

You should read the given materials carefully and make the correctchoice ,then write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneFax (facsimile) machines use the telephone network to transmit, within a few seconds, any form of printed, typed or handwritten matter, drawings, diagrams or photographs from one location to another.Replicas of documents can be sent any distance with complete accuracy by combining the speed of the telephone with reproduction facility of the office copier. Equipment of the same type has to be in use at both the sending and receiving ends.Operation of the equipment is simple and in the more sophisticated models loading is automatic; the originals to be transmitted are stacked in a loading tray and, after making telephone contact with the recipient, the operator presses the start button and the copies are reproduced automatically at the recipient’s machine. Copies can also be transmitted automatically without using the service of an operator, an important advantage over telex is that the input material does not have to be typed and checked, and complicated, detailed orders and other business documents can be sent with complete accuracy. Other applications for this equipment include the distribution of technical drawings or branches; gaining access to records stored centrally at a head office; and transmitting advertisement copy to printers.31.Fax is ______ for facsimile.A. a compoundB. a complexC. an abbreviationD. derivative32.Fax machines use the ______ network to transmit.A.

Enormous amounts of money poured into what had been strictly a noncommercial sport. Promoters new to the game signed rich contracts with star players and sent the players on tours across the country and around world. Television coverage carried tennis matches into millions of homes. All these activities helped to change tennis from a minor sport to a major sport within a few short years.36.

Reading ComprehensionNow let us look at how we read. When we read a printed text, our eyes move across a page in short, jerky movement. We recognize words usually when our eyes are still when they fixate. Each time they fixate, we see a group of words. This is known as the recognition span or the visual span. The length of time for which the eyes stop ---the duration of the fixation ----varies considerably from person to person. It also varies within any one person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text. Furthermore, it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness. Unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the printed page. As a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation. For instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second. One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side. Such word patterns are often constructed in the shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive fixation. All these exercises are very clever, but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his abili ty to read a text efficiently. Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words. Consequently, for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training, especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.1. The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts except ________ .A. one’s familiarity with the textB. one’s purpose i n readingC. the length of a group of wordsD. lighting and tiredness2. The author may believe that reading ______.A. requires a reader to take in more words at each fixationB. requires a reader to see words more quicklyC. demands an deeply-participating mindD. demands more mind than eyes3. What does the author mean by saying “but it’s one thing to improve a person’sability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text e fficiently.” in the second para graph?A. The ability to see words is not needed when an efficient reading is conducted.B. The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve both the ability to see and to comprehend words.C. The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve an efficient reading.D. The reading exercises mentioned has done a great job to improve one’s ability to see words.4. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The visual span is a word or a group of words we see each time.B. Many experts began to question the efficiency of eye training.C. The emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleading.D. The eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text.5.
