You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once. Questions 41 to 50 are based on the following passage. There is an alarming 41e that our American economy is direction of what some people call a two-tier society--a large population middle-class or higher incomes and values, with a a42 increase at the top, and a large number of people who have been economically and culturally uncouple from the main society.A great many 43k myself included, feel uneasy about the fact that 70 percent of the economy does what is called service work and only 30 percent does what is called goods-related work New 44 n keeps entering the economy and bringing employment into disorder. When you look back at how the American economy developed; you see a 45h off the farm into the factory and out of the factory into the office. The main push has come from technology. There has been 46 b little new machinery to push people out of the office, butthat's changing now. If the computer creates jobs in the office, the service sector will increase and there will be no squeezing of employment. But if technology press service people out of work, I don't know where they are going to go.Personally, I think American 47 i is in for a very severe challenge. We have always considered ourselves virtually to have a right to be number one in the world. But of course we don't have any such right or 48l . And we have to be patiently prepared for unsettling fact that we are number two, or three, or four in many ways. In terms of health, for instance we have fallen 49c behind, and that's a big blow to our self-image.In the next 20 years the government will have to take active steps in providing work and income for the bottom one third of the population. The government 50g provides some sort of income, but it doesn't provide work. And work is essential for people's self-respect and also for the building of many kinds of basic frame works that are needed in the country.A) considerable I) optimismB) relatively J) immigrationC) variously K) economistD) provided L) assuranceE) possibility M) insuranceF) complete N) technologyG) unwillingly O) eventuallyH) migrationQuestions 51 to 60 are based on the following passage. The status of women in 51m North America has been well studied and described and can be briefly 52d. Throughout the colonial period there was a marked shortage of women, which varied with the regions and was always greatest in the frontierareas. This favorable ratio 53g women’s status and position and allowed them to pursue different careers. The puritans, the religious sect （教派）that 54l the early British colonies in North America, regarded 55l as a sin, and believed that life in an underdeveloped country made it absolutely necessary that each member of the community perform an 56h function. Thus work for women, married or single, was not only approved, it was regarded as a civic duty. Puritan town councils expected widows and unattached women to beself-supporting and for a long time provided needy spinsters with parcels of land. There was no social 57i against married women working. On the contrary, wives were expected to help their husbands in their trade and won social 58e for doing extra work in or out of home. Needy children, girls as well as boys, were indentured or apprenticed and were expected to work for their keep.The vast majority of women worked within theirs homes, where their labor produced most articles needed for the family. The entire colonial production of cloth and clothing and partially that of shoes was in the hands of women. In addition to these 59j, women were found in many 60k kinds of employment. They were butchers, silversmiths, gunsmiths, upholsterers. They ran mills, plantations, tankards, shipyards, and every kind of shop, tavern, and boardinghouse. They were gatekeepers, jail keepers, sextons, journalists, printers, apothecaries, midwives, nurses, and teachers.A. extract F. laziness K. differentB. idleness G. enhanced L. dominatedC. digest H. economic M. colonialD. summarized I. sanction N. controlE. approval J. occupations O. professionalsPart III Reading Comprehension(30 points)Section ADirections: There are 3 passages in this section. 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 Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage: Will Rogers (1879–1935) achieved success over a long and varied career with his humorous and incisive commentary on the foibles of American life. Calling himself a cowboy philosopher, he reached a wide following with his stage act, lectures, newspaper and magazine articles, films, radio broadcasts, and books. The youngest of eight children of a comfortable Oklahoma family, he was born on his parents' ranch in 1879. He was not a very dedicated student and never actually graduated from high school; he ran away from the military school where his father sent him to helphim settle down to a responsible life in Oklahoma. Wanting to see the world, he took on a number of jobs that allowed him to travel. He worked as a trick rider in Texas Jack's Wild West Show in South Africa and later toured around Australia and New Zealand with a circus; he then toured the United States as part of a Wild West show and eventually began working in vaudeville shows in New York City as a trick roper. He experienced his first success as a performer when he began telling jokes during his rope act. He worked as a vaudeville performer, interspersing humor with his rope act, for more than a decade.In 1916, Rogers was hired by the Ziegfeld Follies and quickly became a star of the show. He had discovered that newspaper stories provided great material on which to base his humorous commentary; using newspaper stories as his source material, he was able to come up with comic material for three shows daily with the Follies. By 1919, he had gathered enough successful jokes to create two collections of his humor, The Cowboy Philosopher on the Peace Conference and The Cowboy Philosopher on Prohibition After a briefattempt at a movie career in California in 1918, he returned to New York, where he immediately found a different forum for his humorous commentary as an after-dinner speaker. His success as a speaker caught the attention of the McNaught Newspaper Syndicate, and in 1922 he was asked to write a weekly column for the syndicate, a position he maintained for the rest of his life. In 1924, he created a collection of his favorite columns for publication in the book The Illiterate Digest. In 1926, his career expanded even more. In that year, he was sent to Europe to write a series of articles for the Saturday Evening Post;these articles were then compiled into the volume Letters of a Self-Made Diplomat to the President (1926). He was also hired in 1926 to send a daily telegram for inclusion in the New York Times, an assignment that he maintained for the rest of his life. Additionally, in 1926 he made his first radio broadcast, which eventually became a popular series of weekly broadcasts. Rogers' popularity increased dramatically during this period, and he was soon sought after by the film industry for a second attempt at moviemaking. Hebegan a new career in sound films with They Had to See Paris (1929) and continued to make films throughout this period, the best known of which were A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court (1931) and Steamboat 'Round the Bend (1935).Throughout his varied career, Rogers always managed to reflect the essence of life in America, and the public responded enthusiastically to him. Though his criticisms of the country's current foibles could be pointed, overall Rogers reflected a genuine optimism about the future of the country and its citizens, resulting in the immense popularity that he experienced throughout his career.61. It is mentioned in paragraph 1 that Will Rogers was known for all of the following EXCEPT for his work_________________.A) as a rancher B) as a speaker C) as a writer D) as an actor62. According to paragraph 2, when Will Rogers was born, his family was __________.A) friendly B) well-off C) urban D)casual63. According to paragraph 2, it is NOT true that WillRogers____________.A) was a good studentB) failed to graduate from high schoolC) attended a military schoolD) left a military school without explanation64. It is NOT mentioned in paragraph 2 that Will Rogers_____________.A) took part in a Western show in South AfricaB) traveled with a circus in AustraliaC) was a circus performer in the United StatesD) worked as a trick roper in New York65. It is indicated in paragraph 2 that Will Rogers first became successful when he_______.A) began telling jokes during his nightclub actB )introduced humor into his vaudeville actC) incorporated new and exciting tricks into his rope actD introduced a Wild West act into the circus Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage: Over millions of years, the world's climate has undergone a series of dramatic changes that have most likely resulted from oscillations, or pendulum-likeswings, in the rotation of the Earth. One such dramatic climate change was what is commonly called the Ice Age and was in reality a series of phases of colder and warmer weather that commenced approximately two million years ago. What we today refer to as the Ice Age was in reality a series of weaker and stronger glacial periods during which sheets of ice expanded and moved varying distances south followed by interglacial periods when the glaciers melted to varying degrees and retreated to the north. These successive periods of colder and warmer weather have had striking effects on the world's landscape and on the life forms that inhabit the land. Each glacial period in the series of colder and warmer phases had a different impact, depending on how far south the ice extended, how long it lasted before melting, and how much it changed the landscape and sea levels.The effect on the world's landscape that resulted from the changing climate was dramatic. Vast sheets of glacial ice in the northern latitudes of the world cut deep u-shaped valleys that still exist today and caused huge boulders and enormous amounts of clay and dustto be deposited across North America, Europe, and Asia and to reshape the landscape of these areas. As the glacial sheets of ice crept southward on the northern continents, they trapped large amounts of water. Thisserved to reduce the amount of moisture in the atmosphere that could fall as rain or snow, reducing the amount of rainfall and leading to further aridity and the expansion of deserts in the tropical and subtropical regions. In addition, with so much water held in the glacial ice, the sea level fell, resulting in the exposure of land that today is covered with water. During glacial periods there was a land bridge from France to England, the islands of Japan and Java were connected to the Asian mainland, and Asia was linked to North America over what is today the Bering Strait. Then, during interglacial periods, when the glacial ice retreated to the north, more water became available as glaciers melted. Vegetation expanded with the increase in rainfall, and coastlines changed with the increase in ocean water; during interglacial periods, many areas that today are landmasses were covered with water. Prehistoric people seem to have adapted well to theseenvironmental changes. They moved from place to place in response to climatic changes. They could be found living in the grasslands of Asia, in the forests of southeast Asia, and in the temperate areas of southern Europe, and they moved into and out of the more northerly regions as the glacial regions retreated and advanced. Their diet changed to adapt to the changes in plant and animal life during succeeding glacial and interglacial periods, and the use of stone tools, the building of shelters, and the use of clothing came about during this period. It was these sorts of adaptations that enabled humans to survive and progress while many other species failed to survive and thrive during this period in the way that prehistoric people did.66. What is stated about the Ice Age in paragraph 1?A) It caused the rotation of the Earth to swing.B) It was a period of sustained intensely cold weather.C) It came about as a result of variation in the Earth's rotation.D) It lasted for two million years.67. Which of the sentences below expresses theessential information in the highlighted sentence in paragraph 1?A) During the Ice Age, there were periods when the glaciers moved forcefully and other periods when the movement ofglaciers was weaker.B) During glacial periods, the glaciers moved to colder areas in the north, while during interglacial periods, glaciersmoved toward the south.C) During the Ice Age, glaciers tended to freeze north of the equator and melt south of the equator.D) The Ice Age really consisted of colder glacial periods and warmer interglacial periods.68 The word striking in paragraph 1 could best be replaced by __________.A) remarkable B) violent C) attractive D) dangerous69. The word it in paragraph 1 refers to ____________.A) a different impact B) the ice C) melting D) the landscape70. All of the following are mentioned in paragraph 1 as affecting the impact of a glacial periodEXCEPT__________.A) the amount of area that was covered with iceB) the length of time that a glacier lastedC) the effect that a glacier had on the geography of the landD) the effect that a glacier had on the chemistry of the waterQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage: A few common misconceptions. Beauty is only skin-deep. One's physical assets and liabilities don't count all that much in a managerial career. A woman should always try to look her best.Over the last 30 years, social scientists have conducted more than 1,000 studies of how we react to beautiful and not-so-beautiful people. The virtually unanimous conclusion: Looks do matter, more than most of us realize. The data suggest, for example, that physically attractive individuals are more likely to be treated well by their parents, sought out as friends, and pursued romantically. With the possible exception of women seeking managerial jobs, they are also more likely to be hired, paid well, and promoted.Un-American, you say, unfair and extremely unbelievable? Once again, the scientists have caught us mouthing pieties (虔诚) while acting just the contrary. Their typical experiment works something like this. They give each member of agroup-college students, perhaps, or teachers or corporate personnel mangers-a piece of paper relating an individual's accomplishments. Attached to the paper is a photograph. While the papers all say exactly the same thing the pictures are different. Some show a strikingly attractive person, some an average-looking character, and some an unusually unattractive human being. Group members are asked to rate the individual on certain attributes, anything from personal warmth to the likelihood that he or she will be promoted. Almost invariably, the better looking the person in the picture, the higher the person is rated. In the phrase, borrowed from Siphon, that the social scientists use to sum up the common perception, what is beautiful is good.In business, however, good looks cut both ways for women, and deeper than for men. A Utah StateUniversity professor, who is an authority on the subject, explains: In terms of their careers, the impact of physical attractiveness on males is only modest. But its potential impact on females can be tremendous, making it easier, for example, for the more attractive to get jobs where they are in the public eye. On another note, though, there is enough literature now for us to conclude that attractive women who aspire(追求) to managerial positions do not get on as well as women who may be less attractive.71. According to the passage, people often wrongly believe that in pursuing a career as a manager .A. a person's property or debts do not matter muchB. a person's outward appearance is not a critical qualificationC. women should always dress fashionablyD. women should not only be attractive but also high-minded72. The result of research carried out by social scientists show that ____.A. people do not realize the importance of looking one's bestB. women in pursuit of managerial jobs are not likely to be paid wellC. good-looking women aspire to managerial positionsD. attractive people generally have an advantage over those who are not73. Experiments by scientists have shown that when people evaluate individuals on certain attributes .A. they observe the principle that beauty is only skin-deepB. they do not usually act according to the views they supportC. they give ordinary-looking persons the lowest ratingsD. they tend to base their judgment on the individual's accomplishments74. "Good looks cut both ways for women" (Line 1, Para. 5) means that_______.A. attractive women have tremendous potential impact on public jobsB. good-looking women always get the best of everythingC. being attractive is not always an advantage forwomenD. attractive women do not do as well as unattractive women in managerial positions75. It can be inferred from the passage that in the business world ______.A. handsome men are not affected as much by their looks as attractive women areB. physically attractive women who are in the public eye usually do quite wellC. physically attractive men and women who are in the public eye usually get along quite wellD. good looks are important for women as they are for menSection BDirections: In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words) One summer my wife Chris and I were invited by friends to row down the Colorado River in a boat. Our expedition included many highly successful people-the kind who has staffs to take care of life'sdaily work. But in the wilder rapids, all of us naturally set aside any pretenses (矫饰) and put out backs into every stroke to keep the boat from tumbling over. At each night's encampment, we all hauled supplies and cleaned dishes. After only two days in the river, people accustomed to being spoiled and indulged had become a team, working together to cope with the unpredictable twists and turns of the river.I believe that in life as on boat trips _ teamwork will make all our journeys successful ones. The rhythms of teamwork have been the rhythms of my life. I played basketball alongside famous players, and the team I now coach, the New York Knicks, has recovered from years of adversity to become a major contender in the 1990s.I'm persuaded that teamwork is the key to making dreams come true. We all play o a number of teams in our lives-as part of a family, as a citizen, as a member of an agreement, written or unwritten. It contains the values and goals for every team member.For example, in the late 1970s a General Motors plant in Fremont, Calif, was the scene of constant warfare。

You should read the passage through carefully before making your choices.In the past, a typical student at a university in the United States was a white, middle-class male, usually between the ages of 18 and 22. He entered college directly from high school, majored in a technical subject, and had a clear idea of what he wanted to do after graduation. Now, the typical student is different. Today’s university students are diverse in terms of race, gender, age, and background.

With the advent of the internet, social media, andvarious digital devices, our lives have become more connected than ever before. However, this digital revolution has also raised concerns about the impact it has on our mental health. One of the most prevalent issues is the rise in social isolation and loneliness, particularly among young adults.A recent study conducted by the National Institute of Mental Health found that young adults are more likely to experience symptoms of depression and anxiety compared to previous generations. The study attributes this to the excessive use of digital devices and social media, which can lead to a lack of face-to-face interaction and a decline in social skills. According to the study, young adults who spend more time on social media are more likely to report feelings of loneliness and social isolation.The study also highlights the negative effects of social isolation on mental health. Social isolation has been linked to an increased risk of depression, anxiety, and even cardiovascular disease. Moreover, individuals who feel socially isolated may experience a decline in their overall well-being and quality of life.To address these concerns, experts recommend several strategies to mitigate the negative effects of social isolation in the digital age. Firstly, they emphasize the importance of maintaining a healthy balance between digital and face-to-face interactions. This means reducing the amount of time spent on digital devices and making an effort to engage in real-life social activities. Secondly, experts suggest that individuals should be more mindful of theironline behavior and avoid excessive use of social media, especially during stressful or challenging times. Lastly, building a strong support network of friends, family, and community can help combat feelings of social isolation.The digital age has undoubtedly brought numerous benefits, but it is crucial to be aware of the potential negative effects it can have on our mental health. By adopting healthy habits and being proactive in fostering social connections, we can better navigate this digital landscape and maintain our mentalwell-being.Questions:1、What is the main topic of the passage?A.

One of the most significant changes brought about by the Internet is the emergence of online social networks. These networks allow individuals to connect with others, share information, and collaborate on various projects. However, this transformation has also raised concerns about the impact on face-to-face interactions and the potential risks associated with online communication.Online social networks offer numerous benefits. They provide a platform for people to maintain and strengthen existing relationships, as well as toestablish new connections with like-minded individuals. Moreover, these networks enable users to access a wealth of information, resources, and opportunities. For instance, students can join online study groups, professionals can network with peers in their field, and job seekers can find employment opportunities.Despite these benefits, there are potential drawbacks to online social networks. One major concern is the decline in face-to-face interactions. As people become more reliant on digital communication, they may find themselves less inclined to engage in face-to-face conversations, which can hinder the development of interpersonal skills. Additionally, online social networks can expose individuals to various risks, such as cyberbullying, privacy breaches, and identity theft.Online social networks also have the potential to impact mental health. Excessive use of these networks can lead to social isolation, anxiety, and depression. The constant comparison with others’ seemingly perfect lives on social media can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. Furthermore, the rapid spread of false information and misinformation on these platforms can contribute to confusion, polarization, and even violence in society.In order to mitigate the potential negative impacts of online social networks, it is essential to strike a balance between digital and face-to-face interactions. Individuals should be encouraged to maintain and nurture their relationships both online and offline. Additionally, efforts should be made toeducate users about the risks associated with online communication and to promote responsible use of social media platforms.Questions:1.What is the main topic of the passage?A. The benefits of online social networksB. The risks associated with online social networksC. The impact of online social networks on mental healthD. The balance between digital and face-to-face interactions2.According to the passage, which of the following is a potential benefit of online social networks?A. Decrease in face-to-face interactionsB.

Decline in mental health3.What is one concern raised by the passage regarding the decline in face-to-face interactions?A. The loss of interpersonal skillsB. The reduction in access to informationC. The increase in social isolationD. The enhancement of privacy4.How can individuals mitigate the potential negative impacts of online social networks?A. By reducing their usage of social media platformsB. By maintaining and nurturing their relationships both online and offlineC. By avoiding online communication altogetherD.
