Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, munication is acplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally.. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille ( a system of raised dots read with thefingertips), signal flags, ,Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While verbalization is the most mon form of language, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.11. Which of the following best summarize this passage? ( A)A) When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of municationB) Everybody uses only one form of munication.C) Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreignersD) Although other forms of munication exist, verbalization is the fastest12. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? (C)A) There are many forms of munication in existence todayB) Verbalization is the most mon form of municationC) The deaf and mute do not need sign language for municationD) Ideas and thoughts can be transmitted by language13. Which form other than oral speech would be most monly used among blind people? (B)A) Picture sign B) Braille C) Body languageD)Signal flags14. How many different forms of munication are mentioned here? (C)A)2-4 B)5-7 C)8-10 D) over 1015. Sign language is said to be very picturesque and exact and can be used internationally as itdoesn't represent ______A_______.A) Spellings B) whole words C) ideas D)feelingsPassage 2College brings together people from all walks of life. There are so many different types of people in the world but if you go to a college cus, you are sure to find at least one of every kind. The great part about being here with so many different people is thatyou get to interact with some interesting characters and see how to deal with them.You will meet the people you dread the most, the smart – ass, the brain, or the unique spirit, but no matter who it is that is your worst nightmare to be around you will always be paired up with them in a group project. When you get into the real world you are not going to be able to pick your boss or coworkers. Interacting with these people in college and living with different roommates will help you learn how to cooperate with the people in life youfind so unpleasant. College life is fun. The fact that I have been here for a short time just means it has not yet been a life changing experience to me. If I were to give any tips on how to survive, it would not be how to survive college, but how to survive life. I would have to say that one should be outgoing and live life to the fullest.Meet new people whenever you can because they just may be a major influence in your life. Also, get your work done before you go out and party. Lastly, I wouldhave to say, in life if you ever feel lost or alone, talk to someone about it. Everyone gets depressed at times in their life and there is always someone who will listen to your problems.16.What is the theme of the passage? (A)A) Relationships in college B)Homework in collegeC) Freedom in collegeD)Party in college17. What does the author say about group projects?(B)A) They are always unpleasant.

Our son, Tom, wants to go to Yellow Stone Park again to see the bears. We did that last summer and what an experience it was! When we got there, we put up our tent and went to explore.

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 your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Dolphins (海豚) are not fish, but warm-blooded animals. They live in groups, and speak to each other in their own language. In this they are like other animals, such as bees and birds. But dolphins are very different from almost all land animals. Their brain is nearly the same size as our own, and they live a long time --- at least twenty or thirty years.Like some animals, dolphins use sound to help them findtheir way around. They also make these sounds to talk to each other and to help them find food. We now know they do not use their ears to receive these sounds, but the lower part of the mouth, called the jaw.Strangely, dolphins seem to like man, and for thousands of years there have been stories about the dolphin and its friendship with people.There is a story about sailors in the 19th century. In a dangerous part of the sea off the coast of New Zealand, they learnt to look for a dolphin called Jack. From 1871 to 1903 Jack met every boat in the area and showed it the way. Then in 1903 a passenger on a boat called “The penguin” shot and wounded Jack. He recovered and for nine years more continued to guide all ships through the area --- except for “The Penguin”.Today, some people continue to kill dolphins, but many countries of the world now protect them and in these places it is against the law to kill them.36.Dolphins are different from many other animals in that they ______.A. live in groupsB. have large brainsC. are warm-bloodedD. have their own language37.Which of the following does the dolphin use to help it find its way around?A. Its nose.B. Its ears.C. Its mouth.D. Its eyes.38.Why did the sailors off the coast of New Zealand look forJack?A. He was lonely and liked to be with people.B. They enjoyed playing with him.C. He was seriously wounded.D. They wanted his help39.By telling the story of Jack the writer wanted to show that ______.A. dolphins are friendly and cleverB. people are cruel to animalsC. Jack is different from other dolphinsD. dolphins should be protected by law40.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. Dolphins have their own language.B. Dolphins use a part of their mouth to find their way around.C. In many countries one will break the law if he/she kills a dolphin.D. It took Jack nine years to recover after it was wounded by the shot in 1903.Passage 2Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural difference, not an economic one. Knowing your own psychological space needs is important because they strongly affect your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two-child family, and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are, if you have two children or more, that you also will offer separate bedrooms for them. In America, for example, they train people to want to have their own rooms bygiving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many other countries, the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a bed near them.The space in the home also shows a lot about psychological space needs. Some families gather closer to each other and the size of their house has nothing to do with it. Others have separate little corners where family members go to be alone.Although it is true that psychological space needs are not decided by economic reasons, they sometimes have to be changed a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.41.The passage is chiefly concerned with ______.A. American way of livingB. living conditions in different countriesC. space requirements in different culturesD. space requirements and economic factors42.According to the author, the amount of living space a person needs is decided by ______.A. his cultural backgroundB. the relationship between the family membersC. his financial situationsD. how many rooms there are in his house43.The example of American families seems to suggest that ______.A. Americans are more eager to be alone when they are at homeB. psychological space needs are developed when one is very youngC. it is advisable to let the baby sleep with his parentsD. it is advisable to let the baby sleep in a separate room44.Some families gather close to each other at home because ______.A. they have limited living spaceB. it satisfies their psychological space needsC. they have been brought up in a small familyD. they haven’t small corners for themselves45.According to the author, psychological space needs ______.A. will change as one’s incomes are reducedB. will change if you move to a smaller houseC. can be changed at willD. cannot be changed completelyPassage 3People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same places. This means that cities with large populations have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes (烟) from cars. Statistics show that 93 percent of all auto trips are within cities. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.On the average, we throw away more garbage than the year before. The burning of garbage contributes to air pollution. Many major industries are also responsible for the dirty air in the cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add pollution to the air.The effects of air pollution range from slight headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy traffic may cause headaches for loss of clear vision. Wherever coal and oil are usedfor fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants and cause metal to corrode (腐蚀). In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the lives of human beings by contributing to lung diseases and causing early death.46.The key point of the passage is that ______.A. the cause of air pollution is peopleB. the causes and the effects of air pollution are both found in citiesC. the effects of air pollution range from headaches to deathD. air pollution is caused by dirty air47.What is the purpose of this passage?A. To persuade people to stop polluting the air.B. To tell the causes of air pollution.C. To tell why cities are bad places to live in.D. To describe how people living in cities feel about polluted air.48.Why is air pollution more serious in the city than in the country?A. Because there are larger population in cities.B. Because the air in the city is dirty.C. Because there are more cars in the city.D. Because there are much more gas fumes from cars and burning of coal and oil for energyin the city than in the country.49.The fumes from coal and oil may cause metal ______.A. to turn blackB. to become rustyC. to corrodeD. to twist50.In larger cities, the fumes from coal and oil may contributeto ______.A. lung diseasesB. heart diseasesC. loss of clear visionD. serious headachePassage 4A man once sa id how useless it was to put advertisements in newspapers. “Last week,” said he, “my umbrella was stolen from a London church, it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but did not get it back.”“How did you write your advertisement?” asked one of the listeners, a merchant.“Here it is,” said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip from a newspaper. The other man took it and read, “Lost an umbrella from the City church, the man who finds it will receive ten shillings leaving it at No. 10 Br oad Street.”“Now,” said the merchant, “I often advertise and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of extreme importance. Let us try your umbrella again, and if it fails, I’ll buy you a new one.”The merchant the n took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote: “If the man who was seen to take an umbrella from the City Church last Sunday evening does not wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known.”This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown, and his own was among them. Many of them had notes fastened to them saying that they had been taken bymistake, and begging the loser not to say anything about the matter.51.What is an advertisement?A. A news item.B.

Because he knew how to advertise.B. Because he had more money for advertising.C. Because he found it easy to advertise.D. Because he had a friend in the newspaper where he advertised.54.Did the merchant know who had taken the umbrella?A. Sure.B. Not very sure.C. Not at all.D. Probably.55.This is a story about ______.A. a useless advertisementB. how to make an effective advertisementC. how the man lost and found his umbrellaD. what the merchant did for the umbrella ownerPart III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in each of the following passages.

After a while a new manager took the 59 and said slowly, “It was a baseball glove.”Cynthia said she used to 60 a Circle K clerk job as an interim (临时的) one while she looked for something 61 . On her second day behind the counter, she received a(n) 62__ from her nine-year-old son, Jessie. He 63 a baseball glove for the little League. She 64__ that as a single mother, money was 65 , and her first check would have to go for paying __66 .When Cynthia arrived for work the next morning, Patricia, the store manager asked her to come to her small office and handed her a box. “I overheard you 67 to your son yesterday,” she said, “a nd I know that it is 68 to explain things to kids. This is a baseball glove for Jessie. I know you have to pay bills 69 you can buy gloves. You know we can’t 70__ good people like you as 71 as we would like to; but we do 72 and I want you to know how 73 you are to us.”Cynthia’s story shows vividly that people 74 more how much a(n) 75 cares than how much he pays.56.

It is also one of the __77_ objects to the earth: only the moon and, _78_ , Mars are nearer to us than Venus. Why, then, do we know so little about it?The reason is _79_ the surface of Venus is always covered _80_ a thick layer of clouds. These clouds brilliantly reflect the light _81_ reaches them from the sun and make theplanet __82 very bright to us. We are not sure about _83_ the clouds contain, and we don’t know _84_ the surface of Venus 85 look like.One _86_ suggestion is that the clouds of Venus _87_ be vapors of oil. Our earth clouds _88_ water ---because ourtemperature is just _89_ to turn a little of _90_ seas into vapor. The temperature on Venus, _ 91 _ is four times as hot as boiling water, is quite high enough to _92_ some kinds of oil in to vapors. If Venus had any “seas”, they cannot be seas of water. The water there _93_ away millions of years ago. _94_ they may be “sea” of heavy oil. Some kinds of oil would need to be hotter than Venus before they _95_ boil.76.

She said to her, "My husband needs a vacation very much, so whatever happens, please don't bother him with telegrams and letters about business problems while we are away. Just wait till we get back."After Mr. and Mrs. Young had been away about a week, Mr. Young received a letter from his secretary which said, "Something terrible happened to your business, but I'm not going to bother you with it while you are enjoying your vacation."1.

He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could not afford to buy any more chocolate.It all began a year ago when Albert returned home one evening and found a large dog in front of his gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate in his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. It held up its paws and received another piece of chocolate as a reward. Albert called his new friend "Bingo". He never found out the dog's real name, nor who his owner was. However, Bingo appeared regularly every afternoon and it was quite clear that he preferred chocolate to bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with small pieces of chocolate and demanded a large bar a day. If at any time Albert neglected his duty, Bingo got very angry and refused to let him open the gate. Albert was now at Bingo's mercy and had to bribe him to get into his own house!

AA) T B) F10. Albert "had to bribe him" means he had to take care of him. BA) T B) FPassage ThreeShyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person's conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing "the right thing." Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, "You're just saying that to make me feel good.I know it's not true." It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let's not allow shyness to block our chances for arich and fulfilling life.11. What does the author try to prove by citing "what kind of impression am I making?" (Para. 1)__B____A) Shy people benefit from their caring about their appearance.B) People's shyness made them care too much about their appearance and actions.C) It's natural that shy people don't believe other's compliments.D) Shy people think they are different from others.12. According to the writer, self-awareness is __A___.A) a good qualityB) the cause of unhappinessC) harmful to peopleD) a weak point of shy people13. That shy people react to a compliment in such a way is ___B___.A) good B) unreal C) very reasonable D) harmful14. Which of the following statements is true, according to the passage? ___C__A) Shyness helps us to develop our potentialB) Shyness enables us to understand ourselves betterC) Shyness can block our chances for a rich lifeD) Shyness has nothing to do with lack of self-esteem15. It can be inferred from the passage that shy people __B___.A) should find more of their weaknessB) should understand themselves in the right wayC) had better ignore their weaknessD) can get rid of their shyness while maintaining low self-esteemPassage FourWhat makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is "no". It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into alarge set of ideas about how the world works.The scientist's knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the Theory of Relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, Einstein's ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.16. What makes a scientist according to the passage? __B___A) The tools he uses.B) The way he uses his tools.C) His ways of learning.D) The various tools he uses.17. The underlined part in the passage shows__C___.A) the importance of informationB) the importance of thinkingC) the difference between scientists and ordinary peopleD) the difference between carpenters and people with other jobs.18. A sound scientific theory should be one that __A___.A) works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under thesame conditions at other timesB) does not allow any changes even under different conditionsC) can be used for many purposesD) leave no room for improvement19. The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to illustrate __C___.A) that measurements are keys to success in scienceB) that accuracy of mathematicsC) that investigations are important in scienceD) that the mathematical calculations may test his investigations20. What is the main idea of the passage? __D___A) The theory of relativity.B) Exactness is the core of science.C) Scientists are different from ordinary people.D) Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.Part IV ClozeMany people would agree that stress is a major problem in modern life. It is certainly true that worry and quarrel can cause all kinds of illnesses, __D__ backache to severe headaches, or even more serious complaints such as high blood pressure.Many of us think __A__ stress as something that other people impose on us. We often complain about how other people put us __B__ pressure. But we should try not to let such pressure affect us. We should not forget that we are largely responsible for some of the stress ourselves. We sometimes take __E__ more work than our bodies and our minds can handle. We should learn to __C__ our limitations. We should be aware of which things are really important and which are not.1. A) of B) under C) accept D) from E) on2. A) of B) under C) accept D) from E) on3. A) of B) under C) accept D) from E) on4. A) of B) under C) accept D) from E) on5. A) of B) under C) accept D) from E) onPart V Translation1. This box can hold more books than that one.这个箱子比那个箱子能装更多的书。

As I came near to the gates I turned off the headlamps of the car so as to prevent the beam (光荣) from swinging (摇摆) in through the window and waking Jack, who shared the house with me. But needn’t have done so, I noticed that his light was stillon, so he was awake anyway--- unless he had fallen asleep while reading. I put the car away and went up the steps, Then I opened the door quietly and went to Jack’s room. He was in bed awake but he didn’t even turn towards me.“What’s up, Jack” I said.“For God’s sake (看在上帝面上), don’t make a noise,” he said.The way he spoke reminded me of someone in pain who is afraid to talk in case he does himself a serious injury (伤害).“Take your shoes off, Neville,” Jack said.I thought that he must be ill and that I had better humour (迁就) him to keep him happy, “There’s a snake here” he explained, “It’s asleep between the sheets. I was lying on my back reading when I saw it. I knew that moving was o ut of the question. I couldn’t have moved even if I’d wanted to .” I realized that he was serious. “I was relying on you to call a doctor as soon as you came home.” Jack went on.” It hasn’t bitten me yet but I daren’t do anything to upset it. It might wake up. I’m sick of this,” he said, :” I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago.”There was no time to argue or apologize for being late.

That’s what all doctors thought, until they heard about AI Herpin. AI Herpin, it was said, never slept, Could this be true The doctors decided to see this strange man themselves.AI Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised . Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping , In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother having been injurted (伤害) several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason No one could be sure.Herpin died at the age of 94.41.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Have you ever noticed advertisements which say, “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks, or your money back! From the firstday your pronunciation will be e xcellent. Just send …” and so on. Of course it never happens quite like that. The only language that is easy to learn is the mother tongue. And think how much practice that gets. Before the Second World War people usually learnt a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country. Now speaking the foreign language is what most people want. Every year many millions of people start learning one. How do they do it?Some people try at home with books and records or tapes; some use radio or television programs; others go to evening classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, learning it will take a long time, like language learning at school.A few people try to learn a language fast by studying for 6 or more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken. However, most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do their work better. For example, scientists and doctors need to be able to read books and reports in the foreign language. Whether the language is learnt quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines and good books will help but they cannot do the student?s work for him.36.What do the advertisements mean?A. Y ou will learn a lot on the first day.B. Pronunciation is most important in language learning.C. Anyone can learn a foreign language without much money.D. It is possible to learn a language in less than 2 months.37.After the Second World War many people ______.A. found their mother tongue easy to learnB. learn to speak a foreign languageC. don?t learn to read in a foreign la nguageD. only learn to read in a foreign language38.Which, according to the writer, is the best place to learn a foreign language?A. Home.B. Evening classes.C. The country where the language is used.D. Places where people work.39.The writer of the passage thinks that ______.A. it?s difficult to learn a foreign languageB. it?s not necessary for many people to learn a foreign languageC. it?s not important whether a language is learned quickly or slowlyD. it?s much easier to learn a language toda y than in the past40.According to the passage, which statement is true?A. The mother tongue is easy to learn because it is an easy language.B. It is necessary for many of us to go abroad to learn a foreign language.C. Scientists and doctors want to speak an excellent foreign language, so they learn it.D. Though you have good machines and good books to help you learn a foreign language,you must work hard at it.Passage 2During the summer holiday there will be a different schedule for services for the university community. Specific changes for intercampus bus services, cafeteria (自助餐厅) summer hours for the school, hospital and recreational (娱乐的) and athletic (运动的) facilities (设施) will be posted on the bulletin board outside of thecafeteria.

Each type of food contains at least one useful vitamin. For example, fresh fruit contains a lot of vitamin C.Many years ago, people didn?t know about vitamins. When somebody was sick because of lack of vitamins, the doctors didn?t know what to do. For example, they didn?t know a child with rickets (软骨病) needed foods containing vitamin D, e.g. milk, eggs and oily fish.Doctors found out about vitamins by accident. One day a girl aged 4 was ill. The doctors tried to cure her by taking blood from her body but this didn?t succeed. Other doctors put hot c oals on her forehead and used other harmful methods. All these …cures?failed. The girl became worse and worse.One day the girl?s mother was peeling (削皮) apples in the kitchen. The girl came in and ate some of the peel. The next day, her condition was better. The mother thought about the peel and gave her some more. After some days, the girl was much better. The girl?s mother told doctors what had happened. They investigated the chemicals in apple-peel. The results were very interesting, so the doctors started to investigate other food. They discovered the girl had been ill with scurry (坏血病), caused by a lack of vitamin C. In previous centuries, this disease had killed thousands of sailors. When the doctors found out about vitamins, they advised people to eat a variety of different kinds of food.Now, we know this advice is good. Each person needs to eat such things as rice, meat, fish, vegetables and fruit. Milk and butter are good, too.46.which of the following statements is right?A. None of food contains one useful vitamin.B. All of food doesn?t contain one useful vitamin.C. There is n o food which doesn?t contain any useful vitamin.D. All food contains many useful vitamins.47.Before the vitamins were discovered, if a child was sick with rickets, the doctors ______.A. let him/her eat milk, eggs and oily fishB. let him/her take some medicineC. let him/her drink much water and take a restD. didn?t know what to do48.The girl became worse and worse because ______.A. the doctor took blood from her bodyB. the doctor didn?t find a correct way to cure herC. the disease couldn?t be curedD. the doctor only used a common medicine49.According to the girl?s story, we can see ______.A. the peel of the apple can cure lots of diseasesB. as long as we often eat apples, we can?t suffer from diseasesC. vitamin C can cure scurryD. people can cure their own diseases without doctors50.Each person needs to eat a variety of different kinds of food ______.A. because they contain a lot of vitamins and can build up his healthB. in order to raise his living standardC. because of their different kinds of sweet smellD. though he is poor nowPassage 4Mr. Richards was quite good at shooting with a rifle, and he had taken part in several competitions in his small town. He had never actually won a prize, but each time he had done well, and once he had come fourth.Then he had to go to a big city on business for a month, and as he had nothing much to do in the evenings there, he joined the local rifle club, and spent several pleasant evenings shooting there.The rifle club had a very good team, which used to take part in a lot of important shooting competitions. One of these took place while Mr. Richards was with them, and of course he went to see it. But one of the members of the club?s team suddenly fell ill just before the match, and the captain had to choose somebody else to take his place in a hurry. He had heard that Mr. Richards had taken part in several competitions already, and hehad seen for himself at the club that, although he was not really up to the standard of the club?s first team, he was quite a good shot. He therefore invited him to take the sick?s place.Mr. Richards felt greatly honored to be asked to shoot for such a good team, but he also felt very nervous, because he was afraid of making a fool of himself and letting down his team.In fact, he was so nervous that he could not keep his hands from trembling while he was shooting, with the result that he did very badly in the competition. When he took his score card to his captain, he said, “After seeing my score, I feel like going outside and shooting myself.”The captain looked at the card for a few seconds and then said, “Well, you had better take two bullets with you if you do that.”51.Which of the following statements is true?A.

Because he wanted to share his experiences with others.53.Why was Mr. Richards chosen to take the sick?s place?A. Because he had won shooting prizes.B. Because he had taken some competitions and was not a bad shot.C. Because he was as good a shot as any member of the club?s first team.D.

He was trying to make Mr. Richards less uneasy.Part III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in each of the following passages. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D.
