Each passage is followed by some questions7or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Read each passage carefully and decide on the best choice.(1)Computer people talk a lot about the need for other people to become “computer-literate”, in other words, to learn to understand computers and what makes them tick. Not all experts agree, however, that is a good idea.One pioneer, in particular, who disagrees, is David Tebbutt, the founder of Computertown UK. Although many people see this as a successful attempt to bring people closer to the computer, David does not see it that way. He says that Computertown UK was formed for just the opposite reason, to bring computers to the people and make them “people-literate”.David first got the idea when he visited one of America’s best-known computer “guru”figure, Bob Albrecht，in the small university town of Palo Alto in Northern California. Albrecht had started a project called Computertown USA in the local library, and the local children used to call round every Wednesday to borrow some time on the computers there, instead of borrowing library books. Albrecht was always on hand to answer any questions and to help the children discover about computers in their own way.Over here, in Britain，Computertowns have taken off in a big way，and there are now about 40 scattered over the country. David Tebbutt thinks they are most successful when tied to a computer club. He insists there is a vast and important difference between the two, although they complement each other. The clubs cater for the enthusiasts, with some computer knowledge already, who get together and eventually form an expert computer group. This frightens away non-experts, who are happier going to Computertowns where there are computers available for them to experiment on, with experts available to encourage them and answer any questions; they are not told what to do, they find out.David Tebbutt finds it interesting to see the two different approaches working side by side. The computer experts have to learn not to tell people about computers, but have to be able to explain the answers to the questions that people really want to know. In some Computertowns there are question sessions, rather like radio phone-ins, where the experts listen to a lot of questions and then try to work out some structure to answer them. People are not having to learn computer jargons, but the experts are having to translate computer mysteries into easily8understood terms; the computers are becoming “people-literate”.61. According to David Tebbutt, the purpose of Computertown UK is to ______.( )A. train people to understand how computers workB. make more computers available to peopleC. enable more people to fix computers themselvesD. help people find out more about computers62. What does “people-literate”most probably mean?( )A. Being able to understand computers.B. Knowing the answers to the questions people have about computers.C. Being easy for people to understand and use.D. Being ready to teach people about computers.63. We learn from the passage that Computertown USA was a ______.( )A. townB. projectC. libraryD. school64. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT?( )A. Computertowns in the UK have become popular.B. Computertowns and clubs cater for different people.C. Computertowns are more successful than clubs.D. It’s better that computertowns and clubs work together.65. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computertowns?( )A. Experts give lectures and talks on computers.B. Experts are on hand to answer people’s questions.C. People are left to discover computers on their own.D. There are computers around for people to practise on.(2)I had an experience some years ago which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to officiate(主持) at two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died “full of years,”as the Bible would say; both yielded to the normal wearing out of the body after a long and full life. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolence (吊唁) calls on the9two families on the same afternoon.At the first home, the son of the deceased (已故的) woman said to me, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.”At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, “If only I hadn’t insisted on my mother’s going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the abrupt change of climate, was more than she could take. It’s my fault that she’s dead.”When things don’t turn out as we would like them to, it is very tempting to assume that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Priests know that any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out badly, they believe that the opposite course-keeping Mother at home, postponing the operation —would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?There seem to be two elements involved in our readiness to feel guilt. The first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.The second element is the notion that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. Psychologists speak of the infantile myth of omnipotence (万能). A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow that infantile notion that our wishes cause things to happen.66. What is said about the two deceased elderly women?( )A. They lived out a natural life.B. They died due to lack of care by family members.C. They died of exhaustion after the long plane ride.D. They weren’t accustomed to the change in weather.67. The author had to conduct the two women’s funerals probably because ______.( )A. he had great sympathy for the deceasedB. he wanted to console the two families10C. he was priest of the local churchD. he was an official from the community68. People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones because ______.( )A. they believe that they were responsibleB. they had neglected the natural course of eventsC. they couldn’t find a better way to express their griefD. they didn’t know things often turn out in the opposite direction69. In the context of the passage, “... the world makes sense”(Line 2, Para, 4) probably means that ______.( )A. we have to be sensible in order to understand the worldB. everything in the world is predeterminedC. there’s an explanation for everything in the worldD. the world can be interpreted in different ways70. People have been made to believe since infancy that ______.( )A. every story should have a happy endingB. their wishes are the cause of everything that happensC. life and death is an unsolved mysteryD. everybody is at their command(3)Londoners are great readers. They buy vast numbers of newspapers and magazines and even of books—especially paperbacks, which are still comparatively cheap in spite of ever-increasing rises in the costs of printing. They still continue to buy “proper”books, too, printed on good paper and bound between hard covers.There are many streets in London containing shops which specialize in book-selling. Perhaps the best known of these is Charing Cross Road in the very heart of London. Here bookshops of all sorts and sizes are to be found, from the celebrated one which boasts of being “the biggest bookshop in the world”to the tiny dusty little places which seem to have been left over from Dickens’ time. Some of these shops stock, or will obtain, any kind of book, but many of them specialize in second-hand books, in art books, in foreign books, in books on philosophy, politics or any other of the numberless subjects about which books may be written. One shop in this area specializes solely in books about ballet!11Although it may be the most convenient place for Londoners to buy books, Charing Cross Road is not the cheapest. For the really cheap second-hand volume, the collectors must venture off the beaten track, to Farringdon Road, for example, in the East Central district of London. Here there is nothing so grandiose(壮观的) as bookshops. Instead, the booksellers come along each morning and tip out their sacks of books on to small barrows which line the gutters. And the collectors, some professional and some amateur, who have been waiting for them, plunge upon the dusty cascade. In places like this one can still, occasionally, pick up for a few pence an old volume that may be worth many pounds.Both Charing Cross Road and Farringdon Road are well-known haunts of the book buyer. Yet all over London there are bookshops, in places not so well known, where the wares are equally varied and exciting. It is in the sympathetic atmosphere of such shops that the ardent book buyer feels most at home. In these shops, even the lifelong book-browser is frequently rewarded by the accidental discovery of previously unknown delights. One could, in fact, easily spend a lifetime exploring London’s bookshops. There are many less pleasant ways of spending time!71. In the bookshops of Charing Cross Road you can get______.( )A. new books of any kindB. tiny dusty booksC. second-hand books on various subjectsD. both A and C72. The book-browser ______. ( )A. never gets tired of exploring London’s bookshopsB. has many other pleasant ways of spending timeC. always stays at home readingD. goes to bookshops to kill time every day73. According to the passage the best-known bookshops are ______.( )A. in the East Central districtB. throughout the cityC. in the outskirt of the cityD. in the center of the city74. This passage tells us that ______.( )A. Londoners have plenty of time to read booksB. Londoners are rich enough to buy various booksC. Londoners enjoy collecting and reading booksD. Londoners prefer second-hand books.1275. Where in London can a book collector most likely get a valuable book at a good price?( )A. Charing Cross RoadB. Farringdon RoadC. Bookstores all over LondonD. No place in London(4)Most English holidays have a religious origin. Easter is originally the day to commemorate(纪念) the Resurrection(复活) of Jesus Christ. But now for most people, Easter is a secular spring holiday, when everyone hopes to enjoy fine weather, when the days are lengthening fast, when trees are already in bud and leaf, and spring flowers appear, the most welcome of the year ——violets and primroses, daffodils and narcissi. For children, Easter means, more than anything else, Easter eggs or chocolate eggs!Real, natural eggs do not belong of course to single season of the year. They are eaten all the year round (Duck eggs are a rarity in England, and the eggs of smaller birds are rarer still, a luxury for the very rich and privileged). Eggs are everyday food ——inexpensive, nutritious, and especially good for breakfast. Their association with spring, when hens begin to lay after the winter, is older than the manufacture of chocolate eggs. In some places, real eggs are used in an Easter game called “eggrolling.”They are first hardboiled and then given to competitors to roll down a slope. The winner is the person whose egg gets to the bottom first. In some families, the breakfast eggs on Easter Sunday morning are boiled in several pans, each containing a different vegetable dye, so that when they are served the shells are no longer white or pale brown in color, but yellow or pink, blue or green. The dyes do not penetrate the shell of course.Most British children would be very disappointed if these were the only eggs they had at Easter. Chocolate Easter eggs are displayed in confectioners’(糖果店) shops as soon as Christmas is over. The smallest and simplest are inexpensive enough for children to buy with pocket money. These are of two sorts. V ery small ones, perhaps a little longer than an inch in length, are coated thinly with chocolate on the outside and filled with a sweet, soft paste, called fondant. They are wrapped in colored foil in a variety of patterns. Slightly larger eggs, a little bigger, as a rule, than a duck’s egg, are hollow. There is nothing inside at all ——just a wrapped chocolate shell. You break the shell and eat the jagged, irregular pieces.76. Easter is originally the day to ______.( )13A. mark the beginning of the springB. remember the rebirth of Jesus ChristC. sell chocolate eggsD. be enjoyed only by British children77. You cannot eat ______ all the year round.( )A. real natural eggsB. duck eggsC. the eggs of smaller birdsD. Both A and C78. How do the Easter eggs become colorful?( )A.

Confectionery begins to sell Easter sweets ______.( )A. when Easter startsB. as soon as Christmas is overC. in springD. all the year round80. What do the jagged pieces refer to?( )A. They refer to the chocolate shells of large eggs.B. They refer to the duck eggs.C. They refer to the sweet, soft pastes.D. They refer to varieties of patterns.Part Ⅳ: Translation (15%)Section A (2×3%=6%)Directions: Translate the two underlined sentences in the second passage into Chinese.81.
