For each question or statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to make the correct choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That' s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they' ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.46. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A. they have to look after their kidsB. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money47.

But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-waming systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies. Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international waming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early waming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it' s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.51. The first paragraph tells us that .A. man can easily defeat the natureB. tsunamis take place only in JapanC. man' s ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible52.

Approaching tsunamis can possibly be picked up by sensors.D. An early warning system is effective when a tsunami is close by.Task 3Directions : This task( No. 56 to No. 60) the same as Task l.Tuangou , also called team buying or group buying, is a recently developed shopping strategy starting in China. Several people connect over the Internet and agree to contact a seller of a specific product so that they can buy the same item as a group at a lower price. And the sellers benefit by selling many products at once.When people agree on group buying,individual members of the buying group can vouch for (替………担保)a particular seller’s quality to the rest of the group,therefore Tuangou helps of similar phenomena in Euroupe and North America.However,most of the group buying in these places is organized and done not by the team members themselves,but through online go-betweens.56.

Persons or companies that pass messages between sellers and buyersTask 4Directions: This task (No. 61 to No. 65) is the same as Task l.Facial expressions carry meanings that are partly determined by culture. For example, many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do, so teachers in the United States sometimes have trouble knowing whether their Japanese students understand and enjoy their lessons.Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰) true feelings. But in different cultures. smiles have different meanings. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even a suspicious behavior.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places, for American culture a smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Therefore some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don' t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.61. The best title for this passage is .A. Russian CultureB.American CultureC.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage oneMany teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the students. If a long reading assignment is given, teachers expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or give an examination. The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades. When research is assigned, the professor in the United States expects the students to take the initiative and complete the assignment with less guidance. Professors will help students who need it, but prefer that their students not be over-dependent on them.In the united States, professors have other duties besides teaching. Often they are responsible foradministrative work within their departments. In addition, they may be obliged to publish articles and books. Therefore the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If a student has problems with classroom work, the student should either approach a professor during office hours or make appointment. Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the students in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student's oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e. listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions and informal lectures.In the teaching of science and mathematics, the dominant mode of instruction is generally traditional with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking note. However, new educational trends have psychology classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are "applied" rather than "theoretical" they stress "doing" and involvement.51、 When research is assigned the professor ______.A. will give the student some necessary guidanceB. will not give student any guidanceC. prefer that student not be dependent on him at allD. expect the student to complete it under his guidance52、 Which of the following is NOT the duty of an American professor? ______A. Solving the students' problem during office hoursB. Being responsible for some administrative work.C. Publishing articles and books.D. Spending a lot of time with the students outside of the class.53、In the teaching of science and mathematics, the dominant mode of instruction is ______.A. classroom discussionB. student presentationC. formal lecturesD. informal lectures54、 New educational trend have emerge in the humanities and social science that stress ______A. the role of readingB. good academic recordC. the professor's illustrationD. the student's participation Passage TwoThe last few years have seen new wealth in the group of white-collar workers in China. Primarily this group consists of lawyers, artists, company presidents and employees of joint-venture companies. This group did not exist ten years ago. Business ventures such as real estate development, computer companies and travel agencies have nurtured this new class of ambitious Chinese who have tasted "the good life" and want even more of it.What are the marks of this group of people? First of all, it is defined by what its members have: cell phones, washing machines, microwave ovens, computers, homes and vacations. But this group is not only marked by material things. A psychological independence and carefree optimism is also present. Middel-aged successful company presidents, young professionals even college students are optimistic, expecting the best in their future.Chinese entrepreneurs(企业家)began accumulating money in the late 1980's. But it was not until the middle 90's that the material possession of the newly-rich——cell phones, computers, cars, houses were easily available. These high-tech entrepreneurs quit state enterprise to start private companies nearly a decade ago, when China started to transform from a planned to a market economy. These early entrepreneurs are now wealthy by any country's standards. However, like any newly-rich Chinese, they seem a little uncomfortable when asked about wealth.One reason for their discomfort is that they realize that the prosperity wealth that has created the group of newly-rich has not benefited all Chinese equally. Some entrepreneurs have move up in social status, but many workers have been laid off, losing their jobs temporarily for economic reason, from state-run factories.For most Chinese, the move into this style of Rife is still a step-by-step progress. It may be slow but many business people are hopeful. As a real estate entrepreneur from Beijing said: "This is not just about money. It's abouta better quality of life."55、The word "nurture" (Line 4, Prara1) probably means ______.A. naturalizeB. nourishC. care for and educateD. help the development of56、 According to the passage, which of the following are NOT marked of the newly-rich Chinese? ______A. Great ambition and the whish for a new lifestyle.B. Houses and vacations.C. Mobile phones and computers.D. Mental independence and optimism.57、Why do many newly-rich Chinese feel embarrassed when saked about wealth? ______A. Because they have higher social status.B. Because they have quit state-run factories.C. Because they have fired many employees.D. Because they know many others are not so wealthy.58、According to the real estate entrepreneur, many business people are looking forward to this Style of Life for the sake of ______.A. more wealthB. higher social statusC. better quality of lifeD. greater famePassage ThreeIn recent years a new and serious problem has arisen for international airlines and their passengers.This is the relatively new crime of hijacking. Once an unheard-of event, it has now become a common occurrence.There is not very much anyone can do once a hijacker is on board an aeroplane. He may be carrying a gun or hand grenades, which, if used, would cause a disaster. The only thing to do is try to ensure that these people never get on the plane in the first instance. So airlines all over the world have security procedures. Before any passenger can get on an airplane at the airport, he must go through a series of security checks to make sure he isn't carrying anything that ispotentially dangerous or could be used as a weapon on board. The security measures vary from airport to airport. At some airports there is very little security. At other airports thesecurity checks are very strict and it can take up to haft-an-hour to get through them all.Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong, China, has a good security system. No aircraft starting its journey from Hong Kong has ever been hijacked. At Kai Tak, when a passenger first checks in, his or her name is matched with the computer list of passengers booked on that particular flight. If the name is not recognised, the passenger will be taken aside and questioned by security guards and may not be allowed on the plane. Next, every suitcase is X-ray checked before it goes into the plane. Any suitcase that seems to have something dangerous in it is not put on the plane. Then the hand baggage which the passengers will carry on to the plane is checked. Each passenger has to open his or her bag and the security clerk examines the contents. If there is anything that could be used as a weapon, a penknife for example, the security staff take it away and keep it in a safe place on the plane until the flight is over. The passenger can then collect it.Finally there is a body check of all passengers. They must pass through a door where X-rays will show if they are carrying anything made of metal, like a gun. If anything suspicious is found, they will be asked to explain. It is only after all these checks that a passenger is allowed to board the plane.59、 According to the first paragraph which of the following will the author disagree? ______A. Hijacking is a relatively new crime.B. Hijacking is practically unheard-of.C. The number of Hijacking is increasing.D. Hijacking is a serious problem facing international airlines.60、 The only thing we can do to prevent the disaster caused by Hijacking is to ______.A. set up a series of security proceduresB. exert control over gunsC. fight bravely against the hijackingD. meet the hijacker's demand61、 If there is anything that could be used as a weapon, the passager______.A. can keep it in a safe place on the planeB. can take it back from the security staff when the flight is overC. may not be allowed on the planeD. will be taken aside and questioned by security guards.62、At Kai Tak a passager has to get through all the following checks before boarding the plane except ______.A. having his name matched with the computer listB. having every suitcase X-ray checkedC. having the hand baggage X-ray checkedD. passing through a door for a body checkSection BDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column. Mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the center.A. Soon after he transferred to the new school, John found that he had great difficulty keeping up with the rest of his class.B. Throughout the project, people have received training and decided to start over their own business.C. Our efforts will pay off if the results of the research can be applied to the development of the new technology.D.

Translate the following paragraph into Chinese: (10 points)Rummaging through the fruit and veg section of my local supermarket, reading the country of origin labels, I am bewildered by the geography of it all. That the fruits of the earth should all be laid out on tidy shelves in this provincial corner of Britain would have been unthinkable a few years ago, yet now it is taken for granted.Once strange and exotic fruits that only the rich could afford, if not now part of everyone’s diet, are certainly part of our everyday shopping experience.

Reading Comprehension (38 points)Passage 1Clearly if we are to participle in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society.Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become of one of the dominating factors of contemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes. Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing,educating and entertaining.Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part, the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back.1. In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the _________ of face-to-face contact in social settings.A natureB limitationC usefulnessD creativity2. It is implied in the passage that_______A local news used to be the only source of informationB local news still takes a significant placeC national news is becoming more popularD international news is the fastest transmitted news3. which of the following statement is INCORRECT?A To possess information used to be a privilegeB Public libraries have replaced private librariesC Communication means more than transmissionD Information influences ways of life and thinking4.From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is________.A indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass mediaB happy about the drastic changes in the mass mediaC pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaPassage 2I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But how realistic is the dream? Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window issky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervous—cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitantsof small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the existing and important events that take place in cities. There’s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on and expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation, and constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that you are at the center of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half-past nine at night. Some people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two; they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life” by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind — they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning” to the locals as they pass by? I’m keen on the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby, I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass, I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening.5. We get the impression from the first paragraph that the authorA used to live in the countryB used to work in the cityC works in the cityD lives in the country6. In the author’s opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPTA a strong sense of fearB lack of communicationC housing conditionsD a sense of isolation7. The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following things in the country EXCEPTA daily necessitiesB fresh fruitsC designer clothesD fresh vegetables8. According to the passage, which of the following adjectives best describes those people who work in large cities and live in villages?A OriginalB QuietC ArrogantD Insensitive9. Do you think the author will move to the country?A Yes, he will do soB No, he will not do soC It is difficult to tellD He is in two mindsPassage 3Ideas about education are changing in the United States. Education todayis not just a high school diploma or a college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. For them, learning does not end with a diploma.Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field. It also gives them a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones.Scientists, mechanics and barbers can take classes to improve their work skills. If they know more or learn more, they can get a better job or earn more money.Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills. There is usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photography, auto repair, furniture repair, or swimming. These are only some of the classes available. Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings or churches. Most classes are in the evening, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive.10. The new idea about education in the U.S. is that__________.A. everyone should get a college degreeB. It’s no use for adults to go to collegeC. a high school diploma is the end of educationD. adults should go on learning after graduating from school11. What’s the purpose for adults to continue their education?A. Enlarge their knowledge and learn new skills.B. Catch up the opportunity to get a higher degree.C. Learn more basic knowledge to get a diploma.D. Make themselves live a more comfortable life.12. Which of the following statement is true?A. There are only a few continuing education classes available for adults.B. Only those who want to get more money should go on with their education.C. People take continuing education can get a good job.D. All the people getting continuing education can get a good job.13. Usually, the continuing education program is given________.A. in a small size and expensivelyB. only for working peopleC. only in community buildings or churchesD. by community colleges and public schools14. The best title for the passage would be _________.A. Continuing Education ClassesB. The Importance of a College DegreeC. A Good Way to Earn More MoneyD. Difference Choices for AdultsPassage 4Human cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successfully. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow for children and adults suffering from leukemia. This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer.Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.15．Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technology by___________.A removing the damaged part of the heartB replacing the old heart with a cloned oneC repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy onesD giving the patients injections of various medicines16. The word “infertile”(Line 1, Para.2) most probably means“____________”.A unable to give birth to a childB with physical and emotional problemsC short of time and moneyD separated from each other for long17. According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology may be in ____________.A the treatment of heart attacksB the bearing of babiesC the cure of blood diseasesD the detection of gene-related diseases18. Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by___________.A attacking the diseased cells with healthy onesB controlling the growth of the cellsC detecting disordered genes in the cancel cellsD activating cancer cells by switching them on19. According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is that___________.A it may be out of human controlB it has brought about few benefits so farC people still know little about itD people are afraid of such technologyVII.

There are physical changes in the body toshow that a person has changed from NREM(non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep.Breathing becomesfaster,the heart rate increases,and,as the name implies,the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in thebody is a very important characteristic of REM sleep.It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61.According to the passage,how often doesREM sleep occur in one night?A.OnceB.TwiceC.Four or five timesD.Fortytimes【答案】C62.The word “deeper” in pagragraph 1 isclosest in meaning to which of the following?A.heavierB.louderC.strongerD.happier【答案】A63.Which of the following shows that aperson is NOT dreaming in his sleep?A.His eyes begin to move.B.His bueathing becomesfaster.C.His heart rate increases.D.His eyes stopmoving.【答案】D64.The subject of this passage is.A.why people sleepB.the human need for REMsleepC.the characteristics of REM sleepD.physical changes in the human body【答案】C65．Which of thefollowing is the best title of the article?A. REM SleepB. Two Types of SleepC. SleepersD. What Happens to Sleepers【答案】DPassage 2Foxes and farmers have never got on well.These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officiallyclassified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services oftheir local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, witha group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch thefox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of itas a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes ofbehavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy. It is estimated that up to 100,000 peoplewatch or take part in fox hunting. But over the lastcouple of decades the number of people opposed to foxhunting, because they think it is brutal (残酷的),has risensharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off withoutsome kind of confrontation (冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteursinterfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox'ssmell, which the dogs follow.Noisy confrontations between hunters andsaboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxesitself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of theParliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wildanimals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.66. Rich people in Britain have beenhunting foxes_______.A.for recreationB. in the interests of thefarmersC. to limit the fox populationD. to showoff their wealth【答案】A67. What is special about fox hunting inBritain?A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.B. It is a costly event which rarelyoccurs.C. The hunters have set rules to follow.D. The hunters have to go through stricttraining.【答案】C68. Fox hunting opponents often interferein the game________.A.by resorting to violenceB. by confusingthe fox huntersC. by taking legal actionD. bydemonstrating on the scene【答案】B69. A new law may be passed by the BritishParliament to________.A.prohibit farmers from hunting foxesB. forbid hunting foxes with dogsC. stop hunting wild animals in thecountrysideD. prevent large-scale fox hunting【答案】B70. It can be inferred from the passagethat ________.A. killing foxes with poison is illegalB. limiting the fox population isunnecessaryC. hunting foxes with dogs is consideredcruel and violentD. fox-hunting often leads to confrontationbetween the poor and the rich【答案】CPassage 3If you listen to American music, watchAmerican television or magazines, you will probably agree that the most popular subject of these forms ofentertainment is love. Romantic love always finds an audience in the United States. Falling in love, solving theproblems of love, and achieving the happy ending --- the big wedding are subjects of interest to the adult as wellas the teenage public. Millions of Americans celebrate Valentine's Day with special cards and gifts that announce theirlove to their mates, their friends, their coworkers, and their families.Popular songs tell us that “all the worldloves a lover”. A popular saying is “Love conquers all”. Numerous columns in magazines and newspapers offeradvice to the lovelorn, those with difficulties of the heart. To most Americans, romantic love is central to ahappy life.Not only do Americans believe in romanticlove but they also believe that it is the best basis for marriage.Despite the high divorce rate in the UnitedStates, young men and women continue to marry on the basis of romantic love. Americans consider marriagea private arrangement between the two people involved. Young Americans feel free to choose their ownmarriage partners from any social, economic, or religious background. The man or woman may have strong ties withparents, brothers, or sisters, but when he or she falls in love, the strongest feelings are supposed to be for the lovedone. When an American couple marries, they generally plan to live apart from both sets of parents and buildtheirown independent family structure.71.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage oneMany teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the students. If a long reading assignment is given, teachers expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or give an examination. The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high grades. When research is assigned, the professor in the United States expects the students to take the initiative and complete the assignment with less guidance. Professors will help students who need it, but prefer that their students not be over-dependent on them.In the united States, professors have other duties besides teaching. Often they are responsible for administrative work within their departments. In addition, they may be obliged to publish articles and books. Therefore the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If a student has problems with classroom work, the student should either approach a professor during office hours or make appointment. Participation in the classroom is not only accepted but also expected of the students in many courses. Some professors base part of the final grade on the student's oral participation. Although there are formal lectures during which the student has a passive role (i.e. listening and taking notes), many courses are organized around classroom discussions, student questions and informal lectures.In the teaching of science and mathematics, the dominant mode of instruction is generally traditional with teachers presenting formal lectures and students taking note. However, new educational trends have psychology classes, for example, are often required to solve problems in groups, design projects, make presentations and examine case studies. Since some college or university courses are "applied" rather than "theoretical" they stress "doing" and involvement.51、 When research is assigned the professor ______.A. will give the student some necessary guidanceB. will not give student any guidanceC. prefer that student not be dependent on him at allD. expect the student to complete it under his guidance52、 Which of the following is NOT the duty of an American professor? ______A. Solving the students' problem during office hoursB. Being responsible for some administrative work.C. Publishing articles and books.D. Spending a lot of time with the students outside of the class.53、 In the teaching of science and mathematics, the dominant mode of instruction is ______.A. classroom discussionB. student presentationC. formal lecturesD. informal lectures54、 New educational trend have emerge in the humanities and social science that stress ______A. the role of readingB. good academic recordC. the professor's illustrationD. the student's participation Passage TwoThe last few years have seen new wealth in the group of white-collar workers in China. Primarily this group consists of lawyers, artists, company presidents and employees of joint-venture companies. This group did not exist ten yearsago. Business ventures such as real estate development, computer companies and travel agencies have nurtured this new class of ambitious Chinese who have tasted "the good life" and want even more of it.What are the marks of this group of people? First of all, it is defined by what its members have: cell phones, washing machines, microwave ovens, computers, homes and vacations. But this group is not only marked by material things. A psychological independence and carefree optimism is also present. Middel-aged successful company presidents, young professionals even college students are optimistic, expecting the best in their future.Chinese entrepreneurs(企业家)began accumulating money in the late 1980's. But it was not until the middle 90's that the material possession of the newly-rich——cell phones, computers, cars, houses were easily available. These high-tech entrepreneurs quit state enterprise to start private companies nearly a decade ago, when China started to transform from a planned to a market economy. These early entrepreneurs are now wealthy by any country's standards. However, like any newly-rich Chinese, they seem a little uncomfortable when asked about wealth.One reason for their discomfort is that they realize that the prosperity wealth that has created the group of newly-rich has not benefited all Chinese equally. Some entrepreneurs have move up in social status, but many workers have been laid off, losing their jobs temporarily for economic reason, from state-run factories.For most Chinese, the move into this style of Rife is still a step-by-step progress. It may be slow but many business people are hopeful. As a real estate entrepreneur from Beijing said: "This is not just about money. It's abouta better quality of life."55、 The word "nurture" (Line 4, Prara1) probably means ______.A. naturalizeB. nourishC. care for and educateD. help the development of56、 According to the passage, which of the following are NOT marked of the newly-rich Chinese? ______A. Great ambition and the whish for a new lifestyle.B. Houses and vacations.C. Mobile phones and computers.D. Mental independence and optimism.57、 Why do many newly-rich Chinese feel embarrassed when saked about wealth? ______A. Because they have higher social status.B. Because they have quit state-run factories.C. Because they have fired many employees.D. Because they know many others are not so wealthy.58、 According to the real estate entrepreneur, many business people are looking forward to this Style of Life for the sake of ______.A. more wealthB. higher social statusC. better quality of lifeD. greater famePassage ThreeIn recent years a new and serious problem has arisen for international airlines and their passengers.This is the relatively new crime of hijacking. Once an unheard-of event, it has now become a common occurrence.There is not very much anyone can do once a hijacker is on board an aeroplane. He may be carrying a gun or hand grenades, which, if used, would cause a disaster. The only thing to do is try to ensure that these people never get on the plane in the first instance. So airlines all over the world have security procedures. Before any passenger can get on an airplane at the airport, he must go through a series of security checks to make sure he isn't carrying anything that ispotentially dangerous or could be used as a weapon on board. The security measures vary from airport to airport. At some airports there is very little security. At other airports the security checks are very strict and it can take up to haft-an-hour to get through them all.Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong, China, has a good security system. No aircraft starting its journey from Hong Kong has ever been hijacked. At Kai Tak, when a passenger first checks in, his or her name is matched with the computer list of passengers booked on that particular flight. If the name is not recognised, the passenger will be taken aside and questioned by security guards and may not be allowed on the plane. Next, every suitcase is X-ray checked before it goes into the plane. Any suitcase that seems to have something dangerous in it is not put on the plane. Then the hand baggage which the passengers will carry on to the plane is checked. Each passenger has to open his or her bag and the security clerk examines the contents. If there is anything that could be used as a weapon, a penknife for example, the security staff take it away and keep it in a safe place on the plane until the flight is over. The passenger can then collect it.Finally there is a body check of all passengers. They must pass through a door where X-rays will show if they are carrying anything made of metal, like a gun. If anything suspicious is found, they will be asked to explain. It is only after all these checks that a passenger is allowed to board the plane.59、 According to the first paragraph which of the following will the author disagree? ______A. Hijacking is a relatively new crime.B. Hijacking is practically unheard-of.C. The number of Hijacking is increasing.D. Hijacking is a serious problem facing international airlines.60、 The only thing we can do to prevent the disaster caused by Hijacking is to ______.A. set up a series of security proceduresB. exert control over gunsC. fight bravely against the hijackingD. meet the hijacker's demand61、 If there is anything that could be used as a weapon, the passager______.A. can keep it in a safe place on the planeB. can take it back from the security staff when the flight is overC. may not be allowed on the planeD. will be taken aside and questioned by security guards.62、 At Kai Tak a passager has to get through all the following checks before boarding the plane except ______.A. having his name matched with the computer listB. having every suitcase X-ray checkedC. having the hand baggage X-ray checkedD. passing through a door for a body checkSection BDirections: Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column.
