yellow,orange,or red'?If you do,you must be an optimist(乐观主义者).a leader.an acive person who enjoys life.people and excitement.Do you prefer greys and blues?Then you are probably quict.shy.and you would rather follow than lead You tend to be a pessimist(悲观主义者).At least.this is what psychologists tell us.and theyshould know.because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colours preference,aswell as the effect that colours have on human beings.They tell us.among other facts.that we donot choose our favourite clour as we growup-we are born with our preference.If you happen tolove brown,you did so as soon as you opened your eyes,or at least as soon as you could seeclearly.Colours do influence our moods------there is no doubt about it.A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one;and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day.On the other hand,black is depressing.A black bridge over the Thames River.Near ed to be the scene of more suicides(自杀)than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green.The number of suicide attempts immediately fell down sharply;perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active.It is an establishedfact that factory workers work better.harder.and have fewcr accidents when their machines arcpainted orange rather than black or grey.36.The sentence"You would rather follow than lead"in paragraph l means that youwould.A.like to lead followersB.be afraid of following othersC.be a member rather than a leaderD.like to be a leader rather than a follower37.If one enjoys life,one is sure to prefer.A.red to yellowB.blue to orangeC.blue to yellowD.red to grey38.Which of the following statements is true?A.People's preference of one colour to another is instinct.B.People's preference of one colour to another is acquired as they grow up.C.Factory workers

River to others because of itsA.shapeB.colourC.structureD.materials40.The main idea of the passage is that_.A.colours affect people's moodB.colours affect people's characterC.bright colours make people more activeD.colours preference shows people's couragePassage2Charlotte Hollins knows she faces a battle.The23-year-old British farmer and her21-year-old brother Ben are fighting to save the farm from the city developers that their fatherworked on since he was14.While she is confident they will succeed.she lists farming's many challenges:"You don't often get a day off.Supermarkets put a lot of pressure on farmers to keepprices down.With fewer people working on farms it can be isolating."she said."There is a highrate of suicide and farming will never make you rich!"Oliver Robinson.25,grew up on a farm in Yorkshire.But he never considered staying onhis father and grandfather's land."I'm sure Dan hoped I'd stay,"he said."I guess it's a nice, straightforward life,but it doesn't appeal.For young ambitious people,farm life would be a hard world."For Robinson.farming doesn't offer much in terms of money or lifestyle.Hollins agreesthat economics stops people from pursuing farming rewards:"providing for a vital human need. while working outdoors with nature."Farming is a big political issue in the UK."Buy British"campaigns encourage consumers not a buy cheaper imported foods.The2001"foot and mouth crisis"closed thousands of farms, stopped meat exports,and raised public consciousness of troubles in British farming.Jamie Oliver's2005campaign to get children to eat healthily also highlighted the issue.This national concern brings hope for farmers competing with powerful supermarkets.While most people buy food from the big supermarkets.hundreds of independent Farmers'Markets are becoming popular.41.Charlotte Hollins is talking about her feeling of a battle between"A.the poor and the richB.farmers and city developersC.young people and their parentsD.small markets and supermarkets42.In the eyes of Charlotte Hollins.makes fewer people work on farms.A.rich life of farmersB.a low rate of suicideC.hard life on the farmsD.high prices of farm products43.According to the passage,more and more young people leave their fathers'land because farming cannot offer.A.a hard worldB.a vital human needC.a nice and straightforward lifeD.enough money and honourable life44."Buy British"campaigns____A.bring benefit to farmersB.stopped meat exportC.closed thousands of farmsD.ask children to eat British foods45.According to the passage,Farmers'Markets are becoming popular because.A.thousands of farms are closedB.farmers are the owners of the marketsC.more people are concerned about healthy foodD.Jamie Oliver's2005campaigns urge people to"Buy BritisW'Passage3No one knows exactly how many disabled people(残疾人)there arc in the word.but estimates suggest the figure is over450million.The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.In the United Kingdom.about one in ten people have some disability.Disability is not just something hat happens to other people:as we get older.many of us will become less mobile.hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life.Some people are born with disabilities.Many others become disabled as they get older.There are many progressive disabling diseases.The longer time goes on.the worse they become.Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness.All are affected by people's attitude towards them.Disabled people face many physical barriers.Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends,imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps,or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic?Butthere are other barriers:prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all.It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through.so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability.not their disability,which counts.46.The first paragraph tells us that.A.the number of disabled people in India is the greatestB.there are less than450million disabled people in the worldC.there are more than450million disabled people in the worldD.the number of disabled people in India is equal to the total population of Canada47.The key word in paragraph4is_A.DisabilityB.IgnoranceC.prejudiceD.barriers48.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.There are about10percent disabled people in the UK_B.There still exists prejudice against the disabled because of ignorance.C.Even the able-bodied might lose some of their body functions when they get older.D.The whole society should pay attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.49.The clause"which counts"in the last paragraph means that_.A.ability is the most importantB.disability is consideredC.disability is includedD.barrier is the most important50.It can be concluded from the passage that_A.we should try our best to prevent disablementB.we should take a proper attitude towards the disabledC.both physical and mental barriers are hard to break downD.the able-bodied will never fully understand the disabledPassage4It is really a surprise that after hundreds of years,educationists have still failed to design anything more efficient and reliable than examinations.It is claimed that examinations test what you know,but it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite.They may be a good means of testing memory,or the skills of working rapidly under extreme pressure,but they can tell you nothing about a person's true ability.As anxiety-makers.examinations are second to none.That is because so much depends on them.They are the mark of success or failure in our society.Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day.No one can show his best in worry,or after a sleepless night,yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do.A good education should,among other things,train you to think for yourself.The examination system however,does anything but that.What has to be learnt is laid down by a syllabus(教学大纲).so the student is encouraged to memorize.Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely,and they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge.Furthermore.teachers themselves are often judged by the results of their students'examinations.Consequently,they have to train their students to master exam techniques which they dislike.They most successful candidates are not always the best educated but the best trained..The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment bysome anonymous(匿名的)examiners.They certainly make mistakes.because they have tomark mountains of scripts(答卷)in a limited amount of time.They work under the same sortof pressure as the candidates.51.The main idea of this passage is that examinations are.A.anxiety-makersB.harmful to educationC.reliable and efficientD.good measures of memory52.It is clear that the author examinations.95A.argues forB.argues againstC.is interested inD.is indifferent to53.The fate of students is decided by_according to the passage.A.examinationcationC.teachingD.learning54.According to the author,the most importance of a good education is to.A.encourage students to read widelyB..teach students how to tackle examsC.train students to think on their ownD.encourage students to seek more knowledge55.Which statement is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Examinations can make students anxious.B.The examiners might make mistakes in marking.C.Teachers'work is.judged based on the results of examinations.D.Tools better than examinations to test students'ability have been found.Part III Cloze(10%)When I come across a good article in reading newspapers.I often want to cut and keep it.But just as I am about to do so I find the560n the opposite side is as much interesting.Itmay be a discussion of the way to57in good health.or a report about58tobehave and conduct oneself in society.If I cut the front article,the opposite one is likely t059 damage,leaving out half of it or keeping the text60the title.Therefore.I should prepare61I start to cut.Or it will be halfway done when I find out the62result.63two things are to be done at the same time.You can only

But he brought courage and hope tp people around the world.Although Nakosi Johnson died, he is still remembered today as an AIDS fighter. This young boy challenged his government’s aids policies and millions of South Africans in the fight against the disease.Johnson was the longest survivor born with HIV positive (艾滋病病毒携带者). He survived with this deadly disease for 12 years before it claimed his life.At first,Johnson was expected to live for nine months when his foster mother, Gail Johnson took him in at the age of two. She now runs Nkosi's Haven across the town from his home in Melville. The Haven is home to 20 children living with HIV or AIDS,and 11 of their mothers.Johnson attracted the world's attention and stole the hearts of thousands of people across the world at the 13th International AIDS Conference in Durban in July 2000. He stood in front of alarge audience including South African President Thabo Mbeki. He told them that he wanted AZT, a drug used to treat AIDS patients, to be given to HIV-positive pregnant (怀孕的) women to prevent the disease being passed on to their unborn babies. He received a loud cheer at the end of his speech.Johnson's speech was broadcast live across the world. With views beyond his age and even a sense of humor, Johnson soon became an international sign of the fight against AIDS and HIV.31. Johnson is remembered as an AIDS fighter because________.A. he was born HIV positiveB. he suffered a lot from AIDSC. he changed the government policesD. he had his own idea to fight against the disease52. What does the underlined words “claimed his life” mean in the third paragraph?A. cause his deathB. made him weakC. saved his lifeD. helped him survive33. From the fourth paragraph, it can be inferred that 20 HIV or AIDS children _____.A. got together to avoid lonelinessB. were taken care of by their mothersC. took the Nkosi’s Haven as their homeD. were looked after by the government34. What idea did Johnson give in his speech?A. He want to be a brave AIDS fighter.B. He want to draw the world’s attention.C. He want to fight against the government.D. He want AZT to treat pregnant AIDS women.35. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. A Child’s Excellent SpeechB. A Brave AIDS FighterC. A Sad Story of an AIDS ChildD. A Deadly Disease -- AIDSPassage 2What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subject than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to do well at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. Knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills.If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. Perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.36. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us?A. The importance of finding a good job.B. The importance of one’s ability in school.C. The importance of doing well in school work.D. The importance of good at all the subjects.37. What knowledge is not necessary in looking for many jobs according to the writer?A. MathematicsB. EnglishC. HistoryD. Typing38. The writer’s attitude towards a part-time job is _______.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. hostile39. It can be inferred from the passage that if a student’s school work is not good, he_____.A. can find his weaknessB. can get a new start in his workC. will fail in looking for a jobD. will feel regret about his ability40. The passage is developed by giving _________.A. a comparisonB. enough evidenceC. some examplesD. some factsPassage 3Until the twentieth century, women did not often participant in sports. Part of the explanation for this is that women simply did not have time. Many women cooked, cleaned, and took care of children. They were so busy that they did not have time for sports. A second reason, especially in the late nineteenth century, is that a woman's image at that time was one of frailty,illness, and delicacy. In the Victorian era, people thought that it was unladylike for a woman to be involved in any sports activity.There have been changes in both the view of women in the modern world, and also changes within the world of sports. These changes have allowed many more women to participate in sports. The general view of women has changed substantially since the Victorian era. Women are no longer considered delicate. People do not think it is unladylike for a woman to compete in sports. Women who win in sports activities are highly regarded. Many women now take part in sports and games of many different kinds, and enjoy doing so. This development is partly the result of a change in the image of women in the modern world.Women also are more active in sports now because of two changes in sports. First, in the early twentieth century, women began to compete regularly in the Olympics. Also, the number of events for women in the Olympics has been growing quite steadily. The fact that women can compete in the Olympics encourages many to become active in the various Olympic activities. In more recent years, television has had a noticeable effect on both the popularity of and participation in women's professional sports. Seeing women in professional sports on TV has made certain sports much more popular among women, as amateurs and as professionals.41. According to the passage, women did not often participate in sports in the past because___.A. they were too busyB. they did not like competitionC. they did not like sportsD. they loved staying at home42. Women began to participate in the Olympics _________.A. in the late nineteenth centuryB. in the Victorian AgeC. in the early twentieth centuryD. in the 21st century43. TV has made women’s sports______.A. well recognizedB. highly regardedC. more professionalD. more popular44. We can infer from the passage that ________.A. women used to be considered too weak for sportsB. women did less housework in the twentieth centuryC. the number of sports events has remained unchanged.D. only women’s tennis matches and golf matched are on TV.45. The best title for this passage is ______.A. The Image of WomenB. Sports in the PastC. Women in SportsD. Modern SportsPassage 4New research is trying to find how we learn and make decision exactly. To the brain, a new thought or idea is like a spider. If it works hard enough, a web of knowledge spins out from it. Photos of the brain taken during learning actually show a kind of nerve cells firing, growing, and forming new connections. This is fascinating in itself, but what’s even more fascinating is that failure can cause this to happen.That’s right; failure can enhance your brain.Stanford University psychologist Carol Dweck has compared the brain waves of people with growth and fixed mind-sets. She finds that, when those with growth mind-sets fail at a task, they would enter a more focused mental state. And as they try again and again, they improve. In effect, they' ve learned, and their brains have “grown.” Those with fixed mind-sets, however, never enter this focused state of learning and show little advancement.Antoine Bechara, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at the University of Southem California, has taken Dweck's work a step further. He recently isolated two equally sized centers in the brain. These areas interact during the decision-making process. Although more research is needed, these centers may turn out to be the physical locations for Dweck's twin mind-sets."We always knew people could learn from their mistakes, but now we're finding out exactly how and where this happens," explains Bechara."In a normally functioning brain, failure is taken as an opportunity for learning and strengthening the species."46. according to the passage, like a spider, a new thought or idea could______.A. come from hard workB. enrich you brainC. be very fascinatingD. form a knowledge web47.Which of the following statements about Antoine Bechara is true?A. He explored how human beings survive.B. He found how the brain normally functions.C. He probably discovered the physical locations for the twin mind-sets.D. He studied the brain waves of people with growth and fixed mind-sets.48. Carol Dweck’s work has something to do with ______.A. how to take photos of the brainB. how failure helps the brain “grow”C. when the areas in the brain interact with each otherD. when nerve cells fire, grow, and form new connections49. The passage is most probably from a ______.A. laboratory journalB. newspaper reportC. medical magazineD. personal resume50. The author’s tone can be best described as ________.A. objectiveB. criticalC. personalD. officialPart III Cloze (15%)At the beginning of 1993, Harrison Textile Company, a plant that makes clothes for people, suffered a disaster. The plant, equipment, stock and so on, were 51 down and turned to ashes.More than 3,000 employees were completely 52 in the face of the unexpected disaster.

That night atdinner I told my big brother Louis about it. "We' II get him back for i近he said. And then we cameup with a plan to do just that!We knew Andre was scared of snakes. So Louis and I went to the near by woods and caughttwo small grass snakes and brought them back to our house. We knew we 'd see Andre the next daybecause we had a large screen TV and Andre liked to watchhis favorite football team - theWoods worth - on the big screen.The next day Andre called and asked if he could come over and watch the Woods worth onour TV. "Sure," we told him. Then my brother Louis and I went to work putting on plan in place!When Andre got there, we just bhangs out and everything was normal - although every once ina while Andre would look at me and we'd have to hold back our smiles. Andre sat where heusually did, in the big chair, the one with several big cushions. He liked to throw plows at thescreen whenever one of his favorite players made a bad play - which happened this day too.But this time, as Andre picked up a cushion, just as he was about to throw it, he noticed asnake swinging from the cushion. And in that same instant, the little snake dropped onto his feet,where, to his horror, yet another little snake was making its way across his leg. Andre let out aterrible scream and jumped ten feet off the chair! He ran out of our house so fast! Louis and Inearly died while laughing - as we still do whenever either of us brings it up.41.

But how and when did people get medicine in the ancient times? Scientists think theearliest time could be traced back to 200.000 years ago, but the earliest drugstore is only 300 or400 years from now. People got medicine from nature, mostly from plants. In fact, the study ofplants started out as a section of medicine. To this day, many people around the world still get theirmedicine from plants.Plants are full of chemicals, ones that they produce themselves. They don't make them for usto use medicinally. Plants can't move around like weanimals do, so they use chemicals toaccomplish a lot of their most basic life functions, everything from fighting off fierce animals tocommunicating, and to producing young.Long ago, humans learned that these same chemicals affect our bodies. Some make us sick oreven kill us, but many are beneficial. Early people must have discovered which was which throughtrial and error, and also by watching animals. Scientists know that some animals treat themselveswith plants when they are sick. Bears in North America have been observed to dig up the roots of a plant, chew the roots, and then spread it all over their fur.Over time, humans developed great skill at diagnosing conditions and knowing just whichplants to prescribe and how to prepare. Much knowledge about those plants wasn't written down,so with the arrival of modern medicine, some of what people used to know was lost.Medicinal plants come in all shapes and sizes. Some grow at the tops of mountains; others inforests; still others, in deep ocean. Probably some are inyour yard, fields, or even narrow gaps insidewalks. Many of the plants you have regularly in food and drink have medicinal elements. Whoknows there is a different kind of drugstore - a vital and ancient one - all around us?46. The ancients knew about medicinal plantsA.700 years agoB. 400 years agoC.300 years agoD.200,000 years ago47. Why do plants produce chemicals?A. To provide food for people.B. To meet their basic needs.C. To provide animals with medicine.D. To meet humans' needs48. The caring people acquired knowledge of medicinal plants by.A digging up plantsB. keeping animals as petsC. observing animalsD. cooking plants at home49. What do we left from the last paragraph?A. Medicinal plants can be found almost anywhere.B. Medicinal plants are only available in food.C. Medicinal plants can be found in drugstores.D. Medicinal plants are different in forms.50. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Plants are better than medicine.B. Some plants make a natural drugstore.C. Plants are more useful than animals.D. Some plants make wonderful food.得分阅卷人.Part I Cloze (15%)Directions: There are 15 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choicesMarked A, B, C and D.

Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters (毛衣). Pretty soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters. There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that for some people bright red is rather unsuitable. The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then the people who follow the example are putting their lives in danger. They are like sheep being led to the slaughter (屠宰). Now, it is likely that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong. You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No.” Develop your own sta ndards and your own judgments. If you know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove, have the courage to bowout gracefully.

We all know that a magician does not really depend on “magic” to perform his tricks, but on his ability to act at great speed. However, this does not prevent us from enjoying watching a magician produce rabbits from a hat, swallow countless eggs, or saw(锯)his wife in two. Probably the greatest magician of all time was Harry Houdini who died in 1926. His real name was Enrich Weiss, but he adopted the name “Houdini” after reading a book which influenced him greatly. This had been written by a famous magician called Robert Houdini. Houdini mastered the art of escaping. He could freehimself from the tightest knots (最牢固的结)or the most difficult locks in seconds. Although no one really knows how he did this, there is no doubt that he had made a close study of every type of lock ever invented. He would carry a small steel needle-like tool fastened to his leg and he used this instead of a key. Houdini once asked the Chicago police to lock him in prison. They bound him in chains and locked him up, but he freed himself in an instant. The police accused him of having used a tool and locked him up again. This time he wore no clothes and there were chains round his neck, waist, wrists(手腕),and legs; but he again escaped in a few minutes. Houdini had probably hidden his “needle” in a wax-like substance and dropped it on the floor in the passage(过道).As he went past, he stepped on it so that it so that it stuck to (粘在)the bottom of his foot. His most famous escape, however, was altogether astonishing. He was heavily chained up and shut in an empty wooden box the lid of which was nailed down. The box was dropped into the sea in New York harbor. In one minute Houdini had swum to the surface. When the box was brought up, it was opened and the chains were found inside. 41. Magicians’ successful tricks mostly depend on the fact that they can ______.。

Reading ComprehensionIt was not much fun to travel on one of the old sailing ships. Life was hard for both passengers and crew. In the 17th century, sailing ships were small and roiled(摇荡)heavily in rough seas, so most of the passengers were seasick. There were no toilets, and the spaces below deck where passengers had to stay during gales(狂风)were often not more than 5 foot high. Water was scarce and the little water they got was brown and smelt terrible. Food was a problem, too—there was only salted meat, ship ' s biscuits and cheese, but the cheese was so hard that sailors often made buttons out of it for their jackets and trousers. There were no vegetables or fruit, so the people on board often fell ill. The sailors, however, were a bit better off than the passengers. They each had a bottle of beer a day, and they needed. The work they had to do was hard and dangerous. Courage was needed, for the heavy sails had to be set and taken down in all kinds of weather, and quite often sailors were swept overboard in a gale. Almost the worst thing about the voyages was the time they took up to 70 days for the journey across the Atlantic. Not surprisingly, everybody was overjoyed when they at last approached land and stepped ashore. But some ships never arrived.SSS_SINGLE_SEL1.In the 17th century______.A life on old sailing ships was enjoyableB people enjoyed sailing old. ships in rough seasC most of the passengers **fortable when the ship was rollingD it was very painful for both passengers and crew during the voyageSSS_SINGLE_SEL2.The passengers______when the ship was heavily rolling.A slept wellB could drink a lot of waterC had to stay below deckD had a big room of more than 5 foot highSSS_SINGLE_SEL3.Which of the following statements is true?A Passengers had a lot of vegetables, but no fruit.B The sailors had four bottles of beer a day.C The people on the ship often fell ill because of the lack of vegetables and fruit.D The food for the passengers was more and better than that for the crew.SSS_SINGLE_SEL4.Which of the following statements is true?A The sailors often had to set the sails in bad weather.B The sailors had no courage.C The sailors were happy to be swept overboard in a strong wind.D A 70-day-journey across the Atlantic was the sailors' happiest thing.SSS_SINGLE_SEL5.When the people saw the land, ______.A only passengers were gladB the sailors had to swim ashoreC they were surprised at the news that some ships never arrivedD all of them were excitedA lot of people are their own enemies. They regard themselves as unlikely to succeed in college and often feel that there have been no accomplishments in their lives. In my first year of college especially, I saw people get themselves down all too quickly. There were two students in my class who failed the first test and seemed to give up immediately. From that day on, they walked into the classroom carrying defeat on their shoulders the way other students carried textbooks under their arms. Both students hang on until about mid-term. When they disappeared for good, no one took much notice, for they had already disappeared in spirit after that first test. They are not the only people in whom I have seen the self-doubt do its work. I have really wanted to shake them by the shoulders and say, "You are not dead. Be proud and pleased that you have broughtyourself here to college. Be someone. Breathe. Hope. Act. "Such people should not use self-doubts as an excuse for not trying. They should pull themselves together and get to work. They should starttaking notes in class and trying to learn. Above all, they should not give up without even trying.SSS_SINGLE_SEL6.The underlined phrase "get themselves down"(Para. 1)probablymeans______.A tell liesB lose confidenceC avoid dangersD waste timeSSS_SINGLE_SEL7.When the two students dropped out, no one took much noticebecause______.A they had long lost heart in class performanceB they were absent from class too oftenC they didn't get on well with other studentsD they were so much cut off from the rest of the classSSS_SINGLE_SEL8.According to the passage, the two students failed in their study because of their______.A shynessB prideC self-doubtD lazinessSSS_SINGLE_SEL9.The author thinks that the two students should______.A give up their college educationB learn from other studentsC feel happy because they are in collegeD try hard before giving upSSS_SINGLE_SEL10.The underlined sentence "Both students hang on until about mid-term"(Para. 1)tells us that______.A they didn' t study wellB they didn't take part in class activitiesC they didn't take notes in classD they didn' t finish their study that termFirst Great Western provides a convenient and accurate ticket selling service.

It listed all the tradesmen in each village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of services which were available on one' s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside. Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of**merce, but its power is still remarkable. Our local grocer' s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of **petition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local newswhile doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket. And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value. His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time. His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend whohappened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hint at a fancy for **modity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figure, instantly obtains it for them?SSS_SINGLE_SEL16.Nowadays **mercial services in the village are______.A still very activeB quickly decliningC unable to flourishD personal to visitorsSSS_SINGLE_SEL17.The local grocer' s shop is expanding because______.A **petition there is weakB it is a place for women to chatC it provides good personal serviceD the goods there are more valuableSSS_SINGLE_SEL18.Which of the following is true about the supermarkets?A Prices there are much higher.B Customers often have to queue up.C Customers can order by telephone.D Their personal services are satisfactory.SSS_SINGLE_SEL19.How do the village grocer' s assistants feel about giving extra service?A They don' t think it a trouble.B They don't think it worthwhile.C They don't consider it a good deal.D They don't consider it a pleasant experience.SSS_SINGLE_SEL20.One special feature of the village shop is that______.A there is a very wide range of goods availableB customers can order goods by word of mouthC customer have to order goods one hour earlierD there is a list of goods to be delivered to doorsteps3.
