Markyour answers on ANSWER SHEETl.Text 1It was fifteen past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work.Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her veryfirst job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day.Once inside the lobby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before shecould get on one going to the sixth floor. When shefinally reached the office marked "Smith Enter-prises" , she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no reply. She tapped on the dooragain, but still there was no answer. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound ofvoices, so she opened the door and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she hadthe interview with Mr. Smith, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an officeat all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. In the front of the room,somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter asshe came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others.Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. Smith, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the day's work in the office began just before Mr. Smith arrived. Later she found out that he livedin Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9：35,so that his staff knew exactly when to start working.46. Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because _ .[A] it was her first day in a new job[B] she was a little bit late for work[C] she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong place[D] there was no answer from inside the office47. Marie could hardly recognize the office she went into as .[A] she had been there only once[B] Mr. Smith was not in the office[C] nobody was doing any work[D] the office had a new appearance48. The people in the office suddenly started working because .[A] they saw a stranger in the office[B] their morning break was ended[C] no one wanted to talk to Marie[D] the boss was about to arrive49. We can infer from the text that the employees of the enterprise . .[A] would start their work by listening to a joke[B] were cold to newcomers[C] were always punctual for work[D] lacked devotion to the company50. The best title for this text would be. .[A] Punctual Like a Clock[B] A Cold Welcome[C] An Unpunctual Manager[D] Better Late Than Never。

following passage:In the past,operations were difficult.Until the middle of the eighteen fifti es,surgery was very dangerous.Many patients died after even the smallest ope rations.This was because bacter ia entered the cuts in the patients’bodied and started infection.In some countries,up to90percent of patients died from inf ection afteroperations.In1865,however,Joseph Lister,a British surgeon,fou nd an answer to the problem.He used an“antiseptic”during and after operati ons.This killed the dangerous bacteria and most of his patients lived.Since th en,surgeons have used antiseptics in all operations.Surgery has developed in many important ways since the day of Joseph Lister.Today,when patients go to hospital for an operation,they can expect the best treatment,in clean and hygienic conditions.33.Operations were difficult and dangerous until_______.A.1850B.the middle of1850C.the middle of the fifties of the eighteenth centuryD.the middle of the fifties of the nineteenth century34.In the passage,surgery means__________.A.The performing of an operationB.cureC.treatmentD.medicine35.In the past,up to90percent of patients died after operations mainly b ecause__________.A.bacteria entered the cuts in the patients’bodies and infection took pl aceB.the conditions in hospitals were badC.the skill of surgeons was not so goodD.there were no good medicine at that time36.Which topic of the following best suits the passage?A.Operations were difficult in the pastB.The devotion of Joseph Lister to medical scienceC.Surgery has become saferD.Developments in surgery37.Joseph Lister was________.A.a FrenchmanB.a GermanC.an EnglishmanD.an Americ anPassage2Questions38to42are based on the following passage:Some4000Americans ambitions to become physicians are studying for thei r M.D.s abroad.Many were rejected by U.S.medical schools simply because there was no st year,for example,some13,000of35,000would-be ph ysicians who applied to U.S.schools were accepted.Of those who were turned down,well over600are trying the foreign route.But gaining admittance to a good foreign school may be a problem.British medical schools give priority to Britons,and Canada’s world-renowned McGill University School of Medicine takes only a handful of well qualified American s annually.But several schools do welcome U.S.medical students---if they can master the local language.More than500Americans are enrolled in the Belgian universities at Brussels and Louvain,for example.So me800attend the Italian University at Bologna;175at Rome.Mexico’s Autonomous University of Guad alajara numbers1,300gringos among its4,000students.Despite difficulties abroad,many Americans complete their medical educatio ns,and manage to win the respect of their professors and classmates.One secon d-year student at Louvain has a simple explanation for those successes:“Anyon e who comes here to be motivated.You have to learn a new language,the sch ool is constant hard work,and it’s difficult to get back in to the States to practi ce”.Before they can intern or practice in the United States,graduates of foreign schools must pass a special examination required by medical-education authoriti es.The tough test is designed primarily to weed out those who are unable to s peak English or whose medical education is not up to U.S.standards.38.Which of the following is true about U.S.would-be physicians?A.America medical schools have superfluous applicantsnguage is a big problem all the American students applying to foreign medical schools have to

schools39.Which is following is true about foreign medical education?A.A lot of foreign medical schools do not welcome U.S.students simply because they have to consider the applicants form their own countries first.B.To enter foreign medical schools is much easier than to gain admittance into American medical schools if the problem of language is not regarded.C.There are not many good foreign medical schools according to Ameri can studentsD.There are so many difficulties in studying abroad that not many American students become successful in foreign medical schools40.Which of the following is one of the difficulties the American students at foreign,medical schools have to face.A.Living and medical conditions in foreign countries are not so good a s those in America.B.There is racial discrimination against them.C.They are given no opportunities to practice at local places.D.They are treated the same as foreign physicians and medical school graduates when trying to go back to America to practice.41.What does the word“gringos”mean?A.Americans.B.ForeignersC.Americans in MexicoD. Mexicans42.Which of the following can be the title of this passage?A.Foreign Medical Schools.B.Life at Foreign Medical School sC.The toughForeign Route. D.American Would-be Physicians at Foreign Schools.Passage3Questions31to35are based on the following passage:Summers with father were always enjoyable.Swimming,hiking,boating, fishing—the days were not long enough to contain all of our activities.There never seemed to be enough time to go to church,which disturbed some frien ds and relations.Accused of neglecting this part of our education,my father instituted a summer school for my brother and me.However,his summer cour se included ancient history,which Papa felt our schools neglected,and navigati on,in which we first had a formal examination in the dining room,part of w hich consisted of tying several knots in a given time limit.Then we were eac h separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise in my father’s1 8-foot knockabout,spending the night on board,and loaded down,according to my mother,with enough food for a week.I remember that on my cruise I w as required to formally plot our course,using the tide table,even though our goal was an island I could see quite clearly across the water in the distance.43.What was the original reasons for holding the summer school?A.Friends and relatives thought the children should learn religionB The father wanted the children to learn more about religionC.The children got poor grades in their regular schoolD.The regular school teachers neglected the children44The purpose of the cruise mentioned in the passage was to________.A.have funB.test the author’s sailing abilityC.reward the author for completing summer schoolD.get to the island45.Why did the author have to plot the course of her cruise?A.She had to demonstrate her ability to do so.B.The coast was dangerous.C She was afraid of getting lost. D.The tides were strong46.How long did the author’s cruise last?A.all summerB.overnightC.a weekD.one day,morning till night47Apparently a knockabout is_______.A.an island B a boat C a cruise D a seaman’s knot Passage4 Questions48to52are based on the following passage:The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health.Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat,it has,at the same time,made many foods unfit to eat.Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon . Different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses b ecause of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945 , government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites, commonly used to preserve color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the pack aging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give pen icillin to beef and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in th e milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals n ot for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply try ing to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Alth ough the Food and Drug Administration (FDA has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue. 48. What is the main topic of the passage?A. Food and our health C. Food and cancer B Food and additives D Food and culture 49 All of the following statements are true EXCEPT_______. A Forty percent of cancer is caused by problems related to food. B Researchers have known about the potential danger of food additives for many years C. We eat some of the food additives directly and some indirectly D Drugs are always given to animals for medicinal purposes 50.Why do farmers give drugs to their animals? A. to speed up the growth of animals animals fatter C to make the animals’ meat fit to eat nimals’ meat rich in nutrients 51. It can be inferred from the passage that_________. A scientist have made all the food fit to eat B only in recent year s have people found that the food is related to on e’s illness C all kinds of cancer are related to the diet D some additives are harmful to our health 52. The word “ this” in the second sentence of paragraph 2 most probably refers to __________. 11 / 14 D To make the a B To make theA farmerB penicillinC beef and poultryD the fact that farmers often give penicillin to a beef Part IV: Translation from English into Chinese (10% Directions: In this part, there are four items which you should translate into Chi nese, each item consisting of one sentence.

Choose the best word or phrase for each numbered blank and mark A, B,C, or Don your ANSWER SHEET 1.TextMost young people enjoy physical activities, walking, cycling, football, or mountaineering.These who have a passion 26 climbing high and difficult mountains are often 27 with astonishment. Why are men and women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activities 30 which men give their leisure.There are no man-made rules, as there are for 31 as golf and football. There are, of course, rules of different kinds which it would be dangerous to 32 , but it is this freedom from man-made rules 33 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to their own 34 .If we 35 mountaineering with other more familiar sports, we might think that one big difference is 36 mountaineering is not a “team work”. However, it is only our misunderstanding. There are, in fact, no :matches”37 “teams”of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may 38 , obviously, there is teamwork.A mountain climber knows that he may have to fight with natural 39 that ate stronger and more powerful than man. His sport requires high mental and 40 qualities.A mountain climber 41 to improve on skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions 42 in their early twenties. But it is not 43 for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more 44 than younger men, but they probably climb more skill and less 45 of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.26. [A]for [B]in [C]to [D] of27.

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IFifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which was a temple to me then. It wasn’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor. I would have a lifetime of security is I struck with it. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss’s office. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk,” I began awkwardly. “I came to the Globe when I was twenty-four. Now I’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I’m resigning.” “To another paper?” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, but didn’t say anything. I handed him a letter tha t explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new media company. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly engaged in the change. “I’m glad for you,” he said, quite out of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world,” he concluded. “And if it doesn’t work out, remember, your star is always high here.”Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody —even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into a billion-dollar property. “I’m resigning, Bill, ”I said. He listened while I gave him the story. He wasn’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said, “Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46. From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous _______.[A] newspaper [B] magazine[C]temple [ D ] church47.

This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when your labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: “Get up, Peter! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit if better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.51. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C] he is not sure when his energy is low.[D] he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.52. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D] Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.53. If one wants to work efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier54. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your energy for the day’s work.[B] help you to control your temper early in the day[C] enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D] keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day55. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A] Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B] Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C] Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D] Children have energy cycles, too.Text 3There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels （coal and oil）is creating a “greenhouse effect”—conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world's average temperature. If this view is correct and the world's temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth's temperature — a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would mane agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen （though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible）Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world's temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment ca used by the “advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?56. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _______.[ A ] cause widespread damage in the countryside[ B ] affected the entire eastern half of the United States[ C ] had damaged effect on health[ D ] existed merely in urban and industries areas57. As to the greenhouse effect, the author __________.[ A ] share the same view with the scientist.[ B ] is uncertain of its occurrence[ C ] rejects it as being ungrounded[ D ] thinks that it will destroy the world soon58. The word “offset”in the second paragraph could be replaced by _________.[ A] slip into [ B ] make up for[ C ] set up [ D ] catch up with59. It can be concluded that ____________.[ A ] raising the world's temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earth.[ B] lowering the world's temperature merely a few degrees would lead major farming areas to disaster.[C] almost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decade.[D] the world's temperature will remain constant in the years to come.60. This passage is primarily about __________.[A]the greenhouse effect……[ B ] the burning of fossil fuels……[C] the potential effect of air pollution.[ D] the likelihood of a new ice age. Part BDirections:Read the following article in which five people talk about their ideas of dieting. For questions 61 to 65 , -match name of each speaker to one of the statements （A to C ）given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.AbbeyYou can always recognize dieters from the sour expression on their faces. They spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. They are forever consulting calorie charts, gazing at themselves in mirrors, and leaping on to weighing-machines in the bathroom. They spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips, protruding tummies and double chins. What a miserable lot dieters are!MarlinI began making some dietary and lifestyles changes during my second year of collegeand have been eating this way ever since. I like the way I feel when I don't eat animal foods so much more than the pleasure I used to get from eating them. I have much more energy; I need less sleep; I feel calmer; I can maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat, and I can think more clearly.MaggieDuring my first year of college, I gained forty pounds when I began throwing the javelin. For the next twenty years, I carried all of this extra weight and kidded myself that I was in good shape since that's what I weighed in college. Now that I've lost all that extra weight, I feel great! People say all the time, "Well, how do you live without eating cheeseburgers or this or that?" and I say, "You just don't. It' s not even an option. It's not that hard once you get on it. "BelindaIf you are on a diet, you're always hungry. You can't be hungry and happy at the same time. All the horrible concoctions you eat instead of food leave you permanently dissatisfied. A complete food it may be, but not quite as complete as juicy steak. So at least three times a day you will be exposed to temptation. How miserable to watch others tucking into piles of mouth-watering food while you munch a water biscuit and sip unsweetened lemon juice! And if hunger just proves too much for you, in the end you will lash out and devour five huge guilt-inducing cream cakes at a sitting. Then things will turn out to be even worse.WoodI went on diet when my doctor told me that my blood pressure tended to be high. Only at that time did I realize the danger of being overweight. Since I began making dietary changes in 1982, eating this way has become increasingly accepted. I don't feel I've lost something after dieting. Instead, I've got something valuable. That is good health.Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61. Abbey [A] Being on a diet is a torture.62. Marlin [ B] I feel better with vegetarian food.63. Maggie [C] I lost weight after dieting.[ D] I began dieting for the sake of health.64. Belinda [E] Dieting enables people to enjoy life more.65. Wood [F] Dieting simply causes endless worries.[ G] Dieting does more harm than good to one' s health.Section IV Writing （40 minutes）You should write your responses to both parts on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A66.

Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each question, there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should choose the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 33 to 37 are based on the following passage.When two people are talking to each other, they tend to stand a specific distance apart. Each person has an invisible boundary around their body into which other people may not come. If someone goes beyond this boundary, they will feel uncomfortable and move away to increase the distance between them. (The major exception is family members and other loved ones.) This personal distance is not due to unpleasant body smell or bad breath, but because closeness lends a sense of intimacy (亲密) that is in disagreement with their relationship to the other individual. Interestingly, the average personal distance varies from culture to culture. Americans tend to require more personal space than people in other cultures. So if you try to get too close to an American during your conversation, he or she will feel that you are "in their face" and will try to back away. Try to be aware of this; so if the person to whom you are speaking backs away a little, don't try to close the gap.Also, try to avoid physical contact while you are speaking, since this may also lead to discomfort. Touching is a bit too intimate for nodding acquaintances (相识的人). So don't put your arm around their shoulder, touch their face, or hold their hand. Shaking hands when you initially meet or part is acceptable, but this is only momentary.33. When two people talk to each other theyA) always stand as close to each other as possibleB) usually keep a certain distance between themC) pay no attention to the distance between themD) feel more comfortable if they are close enough34. Which of the following statements' is TRUE according to the passage?A) There is an invisible distance between two speakers.B) Speakers keep a specific distance for the sake of their health.C) Speakers keep a space between them because of their bad breath.'D) Personal space isn't important when family members talk to each other.35. According to the author, during a conversationA) personal distance may differ indifferent culturesB) eastern people require more personal space than western peopleC) western people require more personal space .than eastern peopleD) both sides feel more comfortable if they keep as close as possible36. In a conversation with a nodding acquaintance, you'd betterA) not shake hands with him C) not touch himB) touch him gently first D) contact .him physically37. The best title for the passage can beA) A Sense of Intimacy in CommunicationB) An Invisible Boundary in ConversationC) Different Cultures in CommunicationD) Personal Space in ConversationPassage TwoQuestions 38 to 42 are based on the following passage.Last year I purchased a game for my boys and I played it with them. The trouble was that everyone Won the game. We all arrived at the end together. This seems great in theory, but where's the incentive (刺激) to keep playing? We played the game twice, and it has been there gathering dust ever since.Without a potential winner, a game or contest loses its excitement. If there's nothing to compete for, the drive to do one's best is replaced by a "What's the point" attitude. Competition is closely related to motivation (动力). It's part of human nature to be competitive; after all, survival of the fittest is the basis of evolution. A competitive spirit is the key to our success as adults, so why shouldn't we cultivate it in our children?I'm not suggesting we set our children against each other in heated competitions in all aspects of life. We should guard against coaches who lose the spirit of good sportsmanship (运动员风格) in the heat of the game. But in the right situations, a healthy competition can teach our kids a lot about life. While games and contests illustrate the importance of drive and determination, they also teach our children how to lose. And with that comes other good lessons -- about learning from mistakes, searching for ways to improve and finding the will to try again.38. We can learn from the first paragraph that the game bought by the authorA) proved to be unchallenging C) caused trouble for childrenB) gathered dust very easily D) was played with lots of fun39. The second paragraph mainly tells us that __A) there is a potential winner in all gamesC) humans are competitive by natureB) only adults have a competitive spiritD) only children have a competitive spirit40. The word "drive" (Line2, Paragraph 2) is close in meaning toA) strength B) energy C) ability D) spirit41. According to the author, in a game or contest children should be encouragedA) to obey their coaches strictly C) to develop a competitive spiritB) to compete in all aspects of life D) to compete for nothing but a prize42. What is important for a loser in the game?A) Competition. C) Survival.B) Self-determination. D) Self-improvement.Passage ThreeQuestions 43 to 47 are based on the following passage.Shortly after Charles Darwin published his theory of evolution, a lady was asked what she thought of the idea that humans and animals came down from a common ancestor (祖先). "Let us hope it is not true," she said. "And, if it is true, let us hope it does not become public knowledge."This story is probably untrue, but it illustrates well the attitudes of the time. Today, we are more comfortable with our past. Many people accept Darwin' s view of how we came into being - that our bodies' evolved through the process of natural selection acting on our genes.However, Darwin believed evolution was responsible for far more than just our physical characteristics. He saw it as the major influence in shaping our psychology. Indeed, he predicted that "in the distant future, psychology will be based on a new foundation." This foundation was, of course, his theory of evolution.To those in favor of concepts like free will and personal responsibility, such an idea seems quite stupid. But a growing number of scientists are questioning the extent to which our behavior is controlled by our culture. Their research has revealed increasing evidence that the human mind is made up of natural mechanisms (if; h-g,), which control everything from the way we perceive (感知) time and space, to how we learn survival techniques and choose mates.43. The story about the lady suggests that, in Darwin's time, the theory of evolution made many people feelA) embarrassed B) delighted C) comfortable D) miserable44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?A) People's attitudes towards Darwin's view remain unchanged.B) Darwin's view of man's origin has been widely accepted.C) Natural selection has no effect on our genes.D) The story about the lady has proved to be true.45. The phrase "was responsible for" in Line 1, Paragraph 3 most probably means“ “A) had the ability to influence C) was to blame forB) had the duty of D) was the cause of46. According to Darwin's view, our psychologyA) will change greatly in the futureB) has nothing to do with evolutionC) is mainly shaped by evolutionD) is shaped by our physical characteristics47. If Darwin's view on our psychology is correct, what controls our behavior?A) The characteristics of our culture.B) The mechanisms of our mind.C) The way we perceive time and space.D) The way we live and choose mates.Passage FourQuestions 48 to 52 are based on the following passage.November 7, 2000 is a very special day in the United States. Voters all across the nation are electing representatives in local and national races. Some people think they are voting for the president of our country too. They're not! Again, they're voting for representatives, who are called electors.In most states the electors are chosen on a winner-take-all basis. That makes it possible for one candidate to win the most electors while getting less popular votes nationally than his opponent. The electors will meet in their respective states and cast their votes for the president and the vice-president on December 18, 2000. The Constitution (宪法) does not force the electors to vote for the candidates that they promise to vote for, but they almost always do. On January 6, 2001, just two weeks before the new president and vice-president take office, the votes will be counted in the Congress.If no one gets a majority of the electoral votes, at least 270 out of 538, the winners will be chosen by the Congress. The House of Representatives will choose (one vote per state) the president and the Senate (参议院) will choose the vice-president. It's not likely, but we could actually end up with a president from one party and a vice-president from another.48. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the first paragraph'?.A) Electors are representatives of local and national races.B) Local voters are usually referred to as electors.C) Electors are chosen by representatives for each state.D) Local voters have the right to choose the US president directly.49. What should the electors doA) Promise to vote for popular candidates.B) Vote for the candidates they promise to.C) Gather in the Congress to vote for the president.D) Vote for the president in their respective states.50. A candidate will become the U.S. president if he getsA) about half of the electoral votesB) over half of the electoral votesC) most of the electoral votes from the same partyD) most of the electoral votes from two parties51. The new president will take office after the voting starts.A) in about two weeks C) in about two and a half monthsB) in about two months D) in about half a year52. The main idea of the passage is __ the US president is elected.A) how B) why C) where D) whenPart IV: Translation from English into Chinese (10%) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, there are four items which you should translate into Chinese, each item consisting of one sentence.
