READING COMPREHENSIONRead the two passages and choose the most likely answer to each of the questions. Write the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet (2 points each, 20 points in all) Passage 1Friendship and friends continue to remain central to our lives. The relationship that we share with our friends is grounded in a mutual concern as our friends help us in shaping up our personalities as well. Even in this age of online social networking, the need of expanding the network of friends, whether online or offline remains a primary concern for people. We may have a very vague understanding of what makes a friend but we all want to have a good many friends around us.Research has shown that the quality and nature of your friends are one of the key influencing factors in achieving happiness and satisfaction. Friends often affect the health and energy of a person as well. More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and mutual sharing rather than communicating to their relatives; this sociological phenomenon has escalated the desire to make more friends. Though friendship is a relationship developed between two individuals marked by a voluntary, emotional and mutual concern, there are certain steps, which, if followed, can win you friends or at least help you get close to those whom you want to make friends with.The first step to make friends with someone is to make them like you. If they don’t like you in the first place, it is unlikely that they’ll be eager to become your friends. To let someone know that you are genuinely interested in them, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his first name can lay the basic foundation. To make the other person feel important you need to be a good listener and encourage the other person to talk. Give your honest and sincere opinion but do not overtly criticize or make fun of him or her.The second step of making someone your friend is to develop amutual consideration between each other. You need to share his or her perspective and for that it is necessary for you to develop a tendency to see things from the other perso n’s point of view. To become best of friends you must show a genuine concern and consideration for your friend’s desires and opinions.The third and final step towards friendship is to show your unconditional support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the person you want to befriend matches with what that person can and want to contribute in friendship, the developing friendship between you and your friend is assured to grow, making both of you gratified with mutual emotional bonding. Friendship has overwhelming significance on both social and individual levels. Friendship doesn’t only provide us with emotional as well as practical support but it also helps us improve our personal identities. So it is quite natural to feel the urge to reach out and make new friends, expanding your friend’s circle. Friendship remains familiar yet quite ambiguous (模糊的) for our deeper understanding, but then again, friends remain the most important ingredients in the recipe of life!41. The relationship between friends is based on ______.A. the social networking around friendsB. friends’ caring and helping each otherC. the style friends choose to communicateD. an unclear understanding of what makes a friend42. Which of the following statements has been proved correct?A. The better quality your friends have, the happier you will be.B. Communication with friends is healthier than that with relatives.C. The more friends you have, the more satisfied you are with yourself.D. Those you like in the first place are more likely to become your friends.43. The word “escalated” in the second paragraph probably means ______.A. intensifiedB. challengedC. shiftedD. resisted44. It can be inferred from the first suggested step that ______ is NOT likely to win you friends.A. making others talkB. being very talkativeC. telling people you like themD. addressing others in an informal way45. What structure does the author use to organize this passage?A. Effect- cause.B. Comparison- contrast.C. General- specific- general.D. Definition - explanation - example.Passage 2Every single student that applies for a class or course online has certain expectations and they are often extremely high. Unfortunately for most individuals, they will be disappointed. It is a fact that the majority of individuals believe that they will actually enjoy every aspect of their course. The truth is that there is very little in a degree to inspire until an individual actually completes the course and is awarded the degree or certificate that could change his or her life. This is no different with an online education and, in fact, the disappointment may be more obvious because they may face extra difficulties in an online course.Online education expectations are often incredibly high, as previously stated, in terms of what an individual can get from it as well as the manageability of the content itself. However, although an individual will ultimately be proven right about what he or she can get from it, this will not be the case for manageability. Most online education courses are anything butmanageable for those who decide to take them. The level of work would be the same as any other degree or qualification course, but an individual is expected to manage it on his or her own instead of having a tutor or lecturer there to remind him or her about assignments and deadlines. Time management is extremely important, but the nature of these individuals’ life often makes it impossible to manage without feeling the stresses and strains of the burden.It is important to be realistic with your expectations concerning an online education course, but many are completely unrealistic. If you read any of the accounts from students that have already taken and may have even passed an online education course, many will speak in glowing terms; but you should also read between the lines.They claim that their expectations will ultimately be fulfilled in terms of the long-term benefits. However, in the short term they may say they found it difficult to cope with the workload, the lack of time that they actually had to complete it, an unsupportive employer and so on. This last point may not be an issue if you are doing it to advance yourself within your current workplace, but there will otherwise be some sort of resentment bubbling under the surface and that can indeed make your life amisery for a little while. If you expect it and prepare for it then it should not bother you too much, and if the resentment does not come then so much the better!In terms of your own expectations, the best attitude to have is not to go in with any at all. If you do not expect anything then you may be pleasantly surprised. It can be difficult to fit an online education in with personal commitments, such as a family to look after or a job to go to every day whilst trying to study. It does take a lot of effort, but if you do not expect it to be easy or expect that you will just be able to do it without the balance of your life being upset as a result, then you will probably find that you do get a sense of satisfaction from it! Similarly, if you expect the worst then you will probably be pleasantly surprised! Managing your expectations can be difficult, but do not let them get the better of you !46. The manageability is more difficult in online courses than in any other course because ______.A. online courses require higher level of workB. online courses bring much more assignmentsC. online course takers have no way to contact their lecturersD. online course takers have to rely on themselves for management47. According to the passage, one may not have the problem of an unsupportive employer if ______.A. he is fully prepared to deal with any resentment from his bossB. his online education will be beneficial to his current workplaceC. his expectations will be fulfilled in the form of long-term benefitsD. he can discuss the issue width his boss openly and bravely on the table48. According to the writer of this passage, one’s satisfaction in online education might come from ______.A. high expectationsB. diligent effortsC. a realistic attitudeD. a proper balance49. In the last sentence of this passage, the phrase “get the better of you” probably means “______”.A. make a fool of youB. take advantage of youC. get too fancy for you to imagineD. become too high for you to control50. This passage is written mainly for the purpose of ______.A. inspiring its readers to fulfill their expectations through hard workB. persuading its readers to be more practical with their personal commitmentsC. informing its readers about the disadvantages of the courses they take onlineD. preparing its readers for the hardships they may encounter in online educationV.

After protracted discussion and her repeated pleas she had been allowed this weekly visit to the disco run by the church youth club, provided she caught the nine-forty bus without fail. It’d put her down at the “Crown and Anchor” at Cobb’s marsh, only fifty yards from her cottage. From ten fifteen her father would begin watching for the bus to pass the front room where he and her mother would sit half-watching the television, the curtains drawn back. Whatever the programme or weather, he would then put on his coat and come out to walk the fifty yards to meet her, keeping her always in sight. Since the Norfolk Whistler had begun his killings, her father had an added justification for the mild domestic tyranny which she half-realized, he thought right in dealing with his only child and rather enjoyed. The concordat had been early established:“You do right by me, my girl, and I’ll do right by you.”She both loved him and slightly feared him and she dreaded his anger. Now there would be one of those awful rows in which she knew she couldn’t hope to look to her mother for support. It would be the end of her Friday evenings with Wayne and Shirl and the gang. Already they teased and pitied her because she was treated like a child. Now it would be total humiliation. Her final desperate thought was to hire a taxi and chase the bus, but she didn’t know where the cab rank was and she hadn’t enough money; she was sure of that. She could go back to the disco and see if Wayne and Shirl and the gang between them could lend her enough. But Wayne was always skint (⾝⽆分⽂的)and Shirl too mean and by the time she had argued and cajoled(哄骗)it would be too late. 1. What was the girl’s problem now? A. The bus was late B. She was late for the nine-forty bus C. She was afraid to encounter the Norfolk Whistler D. Her father would not come out to meet her on her way home 2. Why did the girl think "This was the end"? A. She had seen the Norfolk Whistle coming B. She would never be able to get home C. Her parents would give her a hard time D. She would never be allowed to visit the disco again 3. How long would it take her to get to the "Crown and Anchor"by bus? A. 40 minutes or so B. About half an hour C. Over an hour D. Hard to tell 4. Which of the following statements is probably true? A. Her father had been strict with her ever since the Norfolk Whistler began his killings B. Her father had always been strict with her since her childhood C. She dreaded her father because he was always angry with her D. Whatever happened her mother always sided by her 5. "She was sure of that."This means that she was sure___ A. she could catch up with the bus if she took a taxi B. she could not borrow any money from either Wayne or Shirl C. she did not have enough money on her to hire a taxi D. she would never be able to get home in time 2. Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experiences? Strangely enough, the answer to both these question is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surrounding. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways. It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If on the other hand we take two identical twins they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to university and the other to factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who lives in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all, are likely to have similar degrees of intelligence. 1. Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Paragraph 1? A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birth B. Intelligence is developed by the environment C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment 2. It is suggested in this passage that___. A. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligence B. close relation usually have similar intelligence C. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligence D. people who lived in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence. 3. Brothers and sisters are likely to___. A. have similar intelligence B. have different intelligence C. go to the same university D. go to the same factory 4. In Paragraph 1 (line 5), the word "surrounding"mean___. A. intelligence B. life C. environments D. housing 5. The best title for this article would be___. A. On Intelligence B. What does Intelligence Mean? C. We are Born with Intelligence D. Intelligence Is Developed by Environments。

READING COMPREHENSIONRead the two passages and choose the most likely answer to each of the questions. Write the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet (2 points each, 20 points in all)Passage 1Friendship and friends continue to remain central to our lives. The relationship that we share with our friends is grounded in a mutual concern as our friends help us in shaping up our personalities as well. Even in this age of online social networking, the need of expanding the network of friends, whether online or offline remains a primary concern for people. We may have a very vague understanding of what makes a friend but we all want to have a good many friends around us.Research has shown that the quality and nature of your friends are one of the key influencing factors in achieving happiness and satisfaction. Friends often affect the health and energy of a person as well. More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and mutual sharing rather than communicating to their relatives; this sociological phenomenon has escalated the desire to make more friends. Though friendship is a relationship developed between two individuals marked by a voluntary, emotional and mutual concern, there are certain steps, which, if followed, can win you friends or at least help you get close to those whom you want to make friends with.The first step to make friends with someone is to make them like you. If they don’t like youin the first place, it is unlikely that they’ll be eager to become your friends. To let someone know that you are genuinely interested in them, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his first name can lay the basic foundation. To make the other person feel important you need to be a good listener and encourage the other person to talk. Give your honest and sincere opinion but do not overtly criticize or make fun of him or her.The second step of making someone your friend is to develop a mutual consideration between each other. You need to share his or her perspective and for that it is necessary for you to develop a tendency to see things from the other person’s point of view. To become best of friends you must show a genuine concern and consideration for your friend’s desires and opinions.The third and final step towards friendship is to show your unconditional support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the person you want to befriend matches with what that person can and want to contribute in friendship, the developing friendship between you and your friend is assured to grow, making both of you gratified with mutual emotional bonding.Friendship has overwhelming significance on both social and individual levels. Friendship doesn’t only provide us with emotional as well as practical support but it also helps us improve our personal identities. So it is quite natural to feel the urge to reach out and make new friends, expanding your friend’s circle. Friendship remains familiar yet quite ambiguous (模糊的) for our deeper understanding, but then again, friends remain the most important ingredients in the recipe of life!41. The relationship between friends is based on ______.A. the social networking around friendsB. friends’ caring and helping each otherC. the style friends choose to communicateD. an unclear understanding of what makes a friend42. Which of the following statements has been proved correct?A. The better quality your friends have, the happier you will be.B. Communication with friends is healthier than that with relatives.C. The more friends you have, the more satisfied you are with yourself.D. Those you like in the first place are more likely to become your friends.43. The word “escalated” in the second paragraph probably means ______.A. intensifiedB. challengedC. shiftedD. resisted44. It can be inferred from the first suggested step that ______ is NOT likely to win you friends.A. making others talkB. being very talkativeC. telling people you like themD. addressing others in an informal way45. What structure does the author use to organize this passage?A. Effect- cause.B. Comparison- contrast.C. General- specific- general.D. Definition - explanation - example.Passage 2Every single student that applies for a class or course online has certain expectations and they are often extremely high. Unfortunately for most individuals, they will be disappointed. It is a fact that the majority of individuals believe that they will actually enjoy every aspect of their course. The truth is that there is very little in a degree to inspire until an individual actually completes the course and is awarded the degree or certificate that could change his or her life. This is no different with an online education and, in fact, the disappointment may be more obvious because they may face extra difficulties in an online course.Online education expectations are often incredibly high, as previously stated, in terms of what an individual can get from it as well as the manageability of the content itself. However, although an individual will ultimately be proven right about what he or she can get from it, this will not be the case for manageability. Most online education courses are anything but manageable for those who decide to take them. The level of work would be the same as any other degree or qualification course, but an individual is expected to manage it on his or her own instead of having a tutor or lecturer there to remind him or her about assignments and deadlines. Time management is extremely important, but the nature of these individuals’ life often makes it impossible to manage without feeling the stresses and strains of the burden.It is important to be realistic with your expectations concerning an online education course, but many are completely unrealistic. If you read any of the accounts from students that have already taken and may have even passed an online education course, many will speak in glowing terms; but you should also read between the lines.They claim that their expectations will ultimately be fulfilled in terms of the long-term benefits. However, in the short term they may say they found it difficult to cope with the workload, the lack of time that they actually had to complete it, an unsupportive employer and so on. This last point may not be an issue if you are doing it to advance yourself within your current workplace, but there will otherwise be some sort of resentment bubbling under the surface and that can indeed make your life a misery for a little while. If you expect it and prepare for it then it should not bother you too much, and if the resentment does not come then so much the better!In terms of your own expectations, the best attitude to have is not to go in with any at all. If you do not expect anything then you may be pleasantly surprised. It can be difficult to fit an online education in with personal commitments, such as a family to look after or a job to go to every day whilst trying to study. It does take a lot of effort, but if you do not expect it to be easy or expect that you will just be able to do it without the balance of your life being upset as a result, then you will probably find that you do get a sense of satisfaction from it! Similarly, if you expect the worst then you will probably be pleasantly surprised! Managing your expectations can be difficult, but do not let them get the better of you !46. The manageability is more difficult in online courses than in any other course because ______.A. online courses require higher level of workB. online courses bring much more assignmentsC. online course takers have no way to contact their lecturersD. online course takers have to rely on themselves for management47. According to the passage, one may not have the problem of an unsupportive employer if ______.A. he is fully prepared to deal with any resentment from his bossB. his online education will be beneficial to his current workplaceC. his expectations will be fulfilled in the form of long-term benefitsD. he can discuss the issue width his boss openly and bravely on the table48. According to the writer of this passage, one’s satisfaction in online education might come from ______.A. high expectationsB. diligent effortsC. a realistic attitudeD. a proper balance49. In the last sentence of this passage, the phrase “get the better of you” probably means “______”.A. make a fool of youB. take advantage of youC. get too fancy for you to imagineD. become too high for you to control50. This passage is written mainly for the purpose of ______.A. inspiring its readers to fulfill their expectations through hard workB. persuading its readers to be more practical with their personal commitmentsC. informing its readers about the disadvantages of the courses they take onlineD. preparing its readers for the hardships they may encounter in online educationV.
