Since then, innumerable children32 in front of the set. However, many people now worry about the effectof TV on the young. They wonder there had never been 33 invention. Whyare they so afraid? Is television really harmful?Like almost anything else, television has its good as well as itsbad sides. It has 34 joy and interest into the lives of the old, the sick, and the lonely. Without it, some of these people would have little pleasure and no window 35 the world.Unfortunately, some television programs have been extremely harmfulto the young. Children do not have enough 36 . They do not realize that TV programs often show an unreal world. Commercials lie in order to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. Children believe them andwant to 37 what they see on TV. They believe that they will make more friends if they use a certain soap—or some other product. They believe that the murders on TV 38 are normal and acceptable. By the time theyare out of high school, most young people have watched about 15,000hours of television, and have seen about 18,000 violent 39 . If they see violent deaths every day, how can they be shocked by murder in real life?Television has certainly changed our lives and our society. 40 its good points, it has brought many problems.

And even if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor 42 he has a car.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. 43 of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and 44 form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending alot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact 45 the United States never developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public 46 . Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service 47 by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is 48 really made cars popular. Americans don’t like to wait for a bus, or a train or even a plane. They don’t like to have to 49 an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time.

Reading ComprehensionSection A:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).Passage 1In the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $300,000 or more. The ship, lying on the sea-bed has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.51. Divers try to bring up metals because some kinds of them are worth a lot of money.52. Now divers still search for valuable things and try to bring to the earth surface the ships themselves.53. John Light hopes he may be able to sell the whole ship of “Lusitania” for more than $1.5 million.54. The ship “Lusitania” sank off the southwestern coast ofIreland with a lot of people drowned.55. In the past, divers hoped to bring up everything of a sunken ship except metals.Passage 2More and more people today are realizing the importance of regular physical exercise. In the past, work for most people involved manual labor in the fresh open air of the fields. However, nowadays an increasing number of people are employed in offices or factories. Their daily work does not provide them with the amount of exercise theirbodies need. Therefore, they have come to spend part of their free time doing regular physical exercise.There are many different forms of exercise to suit different tastes. For example, those who enjoy competitive sports may take up ball games. Those who prefer to exercise alone can have a run or take a walk in the morning or in the evening. Besides, people can go swimming in summer and go skating in winter. In short, no matter what their interests are, people can always find one or more sports that are suitable to them.However, the form of physical exercise must be chosen carefully. More harm than good will result if peoplechoose the wrong form of exercise. For the aged, Qigong or Tai Ji Quan will suit them better than competitive sports. Those who havelittle spare time may have a regular run in the morning. Only if the kind of exercise is chosen properly and performed regularly, will it benefit people’s health, work and study.56. Nowadays, more people realize the importance of physical exercise.57. It is unnecessary to take some exercise every day.58. People who enjoy competitive sports may take up basketball or football.59. Physical exercise can do more harm than good to people because they will feel tired after it.60.People can always find one or more sports that benefit their health, work and study.IV. Translate the following sentences into Chinese.61. He answered me, but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly.62. With the Mid-autumn Festival round the corner, she is getting more and more homesick.63. Hong Kong is one of the world’s most important financial centers and it is also an important port city.V. Translate the following sentences into English.64. 这篇新闻报导是完全根据实际情况写成的。

No matter how hard he tried, nobody wanted to read his work.One day, Marcel decided that he had had enough. He would be a famous poet or he would die trying. He traveled to Paris and read his poems to anyone who would listen. Still, nobody wanted to buy his work. Marcel began to lose weight and grow weak.

Many things have changed over the years. Before, we used to write letters to communicate with each other. People would often write love letters to each other. A love letter is a special kind of letter that people write to tell someone they love how theyfeel. Today, people often use cell phones to send quick messages, but it is not the same as receiving a letter in the mail.Today, many people text each other messages over the internet. Text messages are quick and easy to send, but they are not very personal. If you write a letter to someone you love, you can take your time and think about the words you want to use. You can use your best handwriting and choose special paper. Writing letters helps you to express yourself in a way that is very personal. But if you send a quick text message, the words are sometimes quick and not very thoughtful.Now that we can talk to one another on the internet, it is not as important to meet in person. In the past, going to meet someone was the only way to talk to them. Today, many people prefer to send a message online first, instead of meeting face-to-face. Even though the internet makes it easy for people to connect, it is not the same as meeting in person.So many things have changed in a very short time. We no longer have to write letters or meet in person to show someone we care. Now we can send quick messages on the internet. While this is fast and easy, it does not have the same personal touch.11. How do people often communicate today than in the past?A. People often send letters and meet face to face.B. People often write letters to each other.C. People often send text messages quickly.D.

A letter written to say you love someone.D. A letter written to ask for help.13. What is said about text messages in comparison to letters?A. Letters are easier to send than text messages.B. Text messages are more personal than letters.C. Text messages are easier to send than letters.D. Letters are more personal than text messages.14. How can you express yourself when writing a letter?A. You can speak very loudly.B. You can write very quickly.C. You can be very thoughtful and take your time.D. You can write everything that comes into your head.15. Why is writing letters better for expressing yourself than sending text messages?A. Because texts can be sent quickly.B. Because letters are very personal and thoughtful.C.

Secondly, we should avoid buying plastic water bottles and opt for reusable water bottles instead. This small change can have a big impact on reducing plastic waste.Furthermore, we can make a conscious effort to choose products with minimal plastic packaging. Whenever possible, we should select products that come in biodegradable or recyclable packaging to reduce our plastic footprint. Additionally, we can reduce our reliance on plastic straws by using biodegradable alternatives or simply skipping the straw altogether.In conclusion, reducing plastic waste in our daily lives is crucial for protecting the environment and preserving our planet for future generations. By making small changes to our habits and choices, we can all contribute to a cleaner and healthier planet. It is our responsibility to take action and make a positive impact on the environment.。

Reading Comprehension (35%)Task 1If you judge by the number of people who go to see the games and by the number of those who actually play it, basketball is probably the most popular sport in the United States. It is also a sport enjoyed by millions of fans in at least 100 countries and one of the best-known sports in the world. It began in 1891.Dr.James A. Naismith, the father of basketball, was an instructor at a YMCA (Young Men’s Christian Association) training school. The school trained people to work in YMCAs. Officials at the school were concerned about the low attendance during the winter months. They felt that people didn’t attend them because the school did not have a good winter sports program. So they asked Dr.Naismith for help. He came up with a new indoor game.Naismith studied current games and found that all the most popular games used a ball. So a ball would be part of his new game, he decided. But kicking the ball or hitting it would be too rough for indoors. So he put two peach baskets up on poles. The players had to try to throw a soccer ball into them. Naismith made thirteen rules for the game. Twelve of them are still in use today. Just seven years after the game began, professional basketball teams were formed.51. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. Americans are fans of basketball.B. Basketball is an indoor game.C. How basketball was born.D. How to play basketball.52. The reason why people didn’t like to go to the training school in winter is that _______.A. it was too cold to play outdoor gamesB. the school didn’t have enough gamesC. the gym instructors were not qualifiedD. the school didn’t have an appropriate winte r game53. Dr.Naismith designed the new indoor game——basketball only because ______.A. he preferred athletic sports in winterB. he was interested in making something newC. he was asked to solve the problem of the low attendance in winterD. he was just studying the current games at that time54. How many rules that Dr.Naismith made are still in use?A. 13B. 12C. 7D. 655. Professional basketball teams were formed in ______.A.1891B. 1898C. 1904D. 1903Task 2Not very long ago, a special family system existed in certain parts of South India. In this system, the actual head of a family unit was the mother’s eldest brother, though the mother also had an important position in the family. In families of this kind, a husband was actually no more than a visitor. He did not live with his wife, but with his own mother, brothers and sisters in another house. He saw his sons and daughters sometimes, but the man who actually fed and cared for them and acted as their father was their uncle—their mother’s brothers.But this system, in which brothers take the place of the father, no longer exists in South India except in a few villages. Economic changes have had far-reaching effect on family life. Family life began to change when men went out to work in factories and offices instead of working with their mothers, brothers, and sisters on the land. When a man went out to work he had money of his own and could buy his own land and build his own family, instead of depending on his mother and his brothers. He wanted to be independent. This is an example of the way in which economic relations can have an effect on family relationships.56. The best title of this passage is _______.A. Husband Actually Visitor in FamilyB. Family System in South IndiaC. Wife Has Important Position in FamilyD. Economic Relations Affects Family Relationships57. Who had the actual control of a family in South India not long ago?A. MotherB. The mother’s eldest brotherC. The fatherD. The father’s mother58.

What has caused such a strange family system to die away?A. The fact that the mother has not got any brother.B. The fact that the father has got his own house and land.C. The changes in economic relations.D. The changes in family relationshipsTask 3Directions: The following is a job advertisement of Atlantic.
