One Friday afternoon he was riding along the track towards the Henderson farm. He was looking for a prize bull which had escaped fro m the Borrogee paddock. He reached the hills and saw at once that he could not go f urther.There had been a fire in the forest which had gone out. But the air was still full o f smoke and fallen trees had blocked the track. Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke. He waited. It was a girl on a horse, and she was riding towards him. “There’s a badly burnt man on the farm,” the girl shouted. “He saved my life. Please help me to save him.”The girl was Cathy Henderson. She had been on horseback for two hours. She ha d to jump over fallen trees that were still burning. Her pony had fallen with her twice. She was thirsty and almost dead from want of sleep. But she rode back to the farm with Jack immediately.Joe Brook was unconscious when they reached him. They lifted him onto Jack’s horse. The ride back to Borrogee was terrible. Cathy was so tired that Jack had to tie her to her pony. The pony was tired too, but its courage was astonishing. It followed J ack right to Borrogee Hospital. Nobody saw them arrive because it was night.“I’ve never seen a horse like that pony,” Jack said. Cathy praised Jack Billabong, but she refused to say anything about the pony, “Joe will write about her in his story,” she said.But she did say one thing: “If flame hadn’t returned to the farm that afternoon, Joe and I would have died.”16.

Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five ye ars. Each couple provided four photographs—one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage a nd another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. T heir judgements were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most ha ppily-married couples.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as som eone else without knowing it. He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones. “Another possible reason,” he says, “is the common experi ence of the couples.” There is a tendency for people who have the same life experi ence to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered fro m a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21. Dr. Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of _________ _.A. imitating the couples’ lifeB. grouping the couples againC. leaving no trace for the testeesD. giving the testees more chances22. The underlined sentence “Their judgements were no better than chance” im plies that the testees __________.A. did a good job in making their choices.B. had difficulty in picking out the partnersC. had no chance to make the right judgementsD. did better with the first group than with the second23. The underlined word “imitate” (in Para. 2) has a similar meaning to _______ ___.A. copyB. changeC. knowD. suffer24. From the passage we can draw the conclusion that ___________.A. couples who look alike can live longerB. most partners have been proved to grow alikeC. the influence between partners can be quite strongD. happily-married couples are often richer than others25. The main purpose of the passage is to ___________.A. explain why couples grow alikeB. tell how couples like each otherC. discuss the function of marriageD. describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThreeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1) “The check is in the mail”, (2) “Of cours e I’ll respect you in the morning”, and (3) “It was a computer error.”Of these three little white lies, the worst is the third. It’s the only one that can n ever be true. Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know what the clerk is sure to say,” It was a computer error.” Nonsense. The computer is re porting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery st ore shows that an item costs more than it actually does. If the innocent buyer points out the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and offer the fa miliar explanation: “It was a compute error.”It wasn’t, of course that computerized cashier is really nothing more than an ele ctric event. The eye reads the Universal Product Code—chat bar of black and white li nes in a corner of the package—and then checks the code against a price list stored i n memory. If the price list is right, you’ll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day—that is, somebody sits at a keybo ard and types in the prices. If the price they type in is too high, there are only two ex planations: carelessness or dishonesty. But somehow “a computer error” is supposed to excuse everything.One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperceptio n that huge, modern computers are electric brain with “artificial intelligence.” At som e point there might be a machine with intelligence but none exists today. The smarte st computer on Earth right now is no more intelligent than your average pen. At this point in the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has instructed it to do.26. Of the three lies, the one about computer is the worst because the compute r itself __________.A. says nonsenseB. cheats customersC. cannot make the errorD. does not admit its error27. According to the author, a computerized cashier is really just ___________.A. a machine to count moneyB. a machine to receive moneyC. an instrument to print codesD. an instrument to read codes28. Grocery store price lists are updated by ____________.A. a computerB. a keyboardC. an employeeD. an electric brain29. The last paragraph of the passage implies that computers ____________.A. are very cleverB. never make mistakesC. have a good memoryD. are controlled by men30. Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage?A. Computers are stupid and inefficient.B. Computer errors are due to its dishonesty.C. Computers help stores update the price list.D. Computer errors are actually human errors.Passage FourI came across an old country guidebook the other day. It listed all the tradesmen in e ach village, and it was impressive to see the past variety of services which were availa ble 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 vi sitors. Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression. On the surface, there has been a decline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer’s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town. Women sensibly prefer to go there and exch ange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermar ket. 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 a t 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 who happened to be passing. The richer customers telephone their sho pping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour. They have only to hin t at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-fi gure, instantly obtains it for them.31. Nowadays the commercial services in the village are ____________.A. still very activeB. quickly decliningC. unable to flourishD. personal to visitor s32. The local grocer’s shop is expanding because _____________.A. the competition there is weakB. it is a place for women to chatC. it provides good personal serviceD. the goods there are more valuable33. Which of the following is true about the supermarkets?A. Prices there are much higherB. Customers often have to queue up.C. Customers can order by telephone.D. Their personal services are satisfactory.34. 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.35. 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 doorstepsPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

For each of them . there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage oneM ichael Phelps has already been considered by some as the greatest all-around competitor in the history of his sport. At the 2023 U.S. Trials, Phelps qualified for Athens in six individual events across every possible stroke. He finally earned five titles of Olympic champion. Should Phelps match Mark Spitz’s record in Athens or Beijing in 2023, he will earn a ＄1 million bonus from his sponsor. Michael Phelps was born to June 30, 1985. His father was a good athlete, and passed his ability on to his kids.Michael’s coach told Michaelc’s mother that her son was a raretelent.Long-limbed with big hands and feet, he took to instruction very well, loved to work hard and never seemed nervous is competition. By all accounts, his frame is perfect for a swimmer. His big hands and feet are like paddles in the water. The butterfly is his signature stroke, but he’s shown the ability to dominate in any event.In 1999,Michael broke a record in the 200-meter butterfly for the 20-year-old age group at th Junior Nationals.At 15, Michael became the youngest swimmer to compete Sydney Olympics for the U.S.in 68 years. In an astonishing performance, he medaled six times and set five world records. Michael won the 200-meter butterfly with a new world mark, and also turned in record times in the 100-meter butterfly and 200-meter individual medley (混合泳)—doing so on the same day, which was a first in swimming history.Outside of his swimming career,Michael was a normal teenager.He didn’t like getting out of the bed in the morning; but refused to slow down once his day began.Michael has his sights set on more than Olympic glory.He wants to transform his sport the way other great athletes like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods have.16.Which of the following is the biggest achievement of Michael Phelps so far?A. An all-around competitor in the history of swimming.B. Breaking of a record in the 200-meter butterfly.C. Six individual events across every possible stroke.D. Five titles of Olympic champion.17. From Paragraph 1 it can be inferred that the passage waswritten_______.A. right in 2023B. at a time between 2023 and 2023C. just before Athens 2023D. immediately after Athens 202318. Michael Phelps turned to be the youngest American swimmer_______.A. in 1999, when he broke a record in the 200-meter butterflyB. in 2023,when he attended Athens 2023C. in 2023, when he attended Sydney OlympicsD. in an astonishing performance at home in the U.S.19. ________hating to get out of his bed in the morning, Michael Phelpswouldn’t slow down once his day began.A. AsB. ThoughC. OnceD. Despite of20. The last sentence of the passage tells us that Michael Phelps is soambitious as to ___________.A. win many more gold medals for the U.S.B. remake history of his sport like M.Jordan and T.WoodsC. become the greatest world record breaker in sport historyD. be by far the greatest sportsman with Olympic gloryPassage TwoMost personnel managers agree that job interviews are one of the least objective recruiment methods.But the advantages of testing are not going to change the attraction of the interview to employers . The appeal of the interview has everything to do with the human factor.Most people believe that they are a reasonable judge of character and trust their instinctive feeling. We might use some kind of test to aid theselection process, but we usually pick a candidate who interviews well, has good qualifications and impressive work record.But suppose the candidate lies or is less than completely honest. “This can be a serious problem for employers”, explains Alan Conrad, Chief Executive at Optimus Recruiment. “The most difficult liars to find are those who tell half-truths rather than complete lies.”Research shows that up to 75 percent of resumes are inaccurate on purpose. The most common practice is omission.Interviewer should therefore concentrate on areas of uncertainy such as gaps between periods of employment and job descriptions that seem strange. “Focusing on these areas will force candidates to tell the truth or become increasingly dishonest. This is usually when people signal their anxiety by their body language. Sweat on the upper lip, false smiles and nervous hand movements all indicate discomfort.”Conrad does not suggest an aggressive policy-style interview technique , but insists that close inspection of a resume is absolutely essential. Only by asking the right questions can you confirm the suitability of the candidate or put pressure on those who are being less than completely honest.21. The best title of this passage can be ___________.A. How to Catch Out the Dishonest CandidateB. How to Find a Job by TricksC. Disadvantages of Job InterviewsD. Advantages of Job Interviews22. The liars hard to recognize are those who tell___________.A. complete truthsB. complete liesC. partial truthsD. mainly truths23. How were the job applicants able to lie without being detected?A. By leaving out some necessary informationB. By providing more information than needed.C. By using their body language.D. By telling some unbelievable lies.24. In order to pick up a qualified and an honest candidate, Conradsuggests that we _____.A. examine the resumes carefullyB. inspect the candidates aggressivelyC. correct the resumes intentionallyD. compare one’s resume with others’25. What is the author’s attitude towards job interviews?A. Most objectiveB. Too subjective.C. SuspiciousD. Credulous.Passage ThreeOur world is wonderful with birds that are absolutely amazing and unbelievable.One kind of such birds is the coot—a clumsy bird so unloved that its name implies something of an old fool.”The bird has a remarkableability to recognize amd count its eggs,” says behavioral ec ologist Bruce Lyon of the University of California at Santa Cruz. Coots need to be tricky because of the nunsual way the animals. Compete: One coot will put its eggs secretly into another’s nest to trick the host into raising the invader’s eggs. But nest owners use their wits to fight back, Lyon finds.Over four summers, Lyon monitored 400 coot nests near Williams Lake in central British Columbia, tagging the eggs with a marker. Of these , 160 coot nests received eggs from unrelated coots. The hosts generally were not fooled, however,. About half the time, coot parents rejected thestrange eggs completely, usually by burying them deep in the nest.“Foreign eggs were not disappearing by chance ---and that can only mean the birds were recognizing them, ”Lyon says. Apparently , the coots were alerted by the unfamiliar colors and patterns on the foreign eggs. In other cases, the parents pushed the foreign eggs to an unfavorable position at the border area of the nest, where there is less heat for hatching.Even if a mother coot didn’t remove the foreign eggs from her nest, she continued to lay a normal hatch number of her own eggs, despite theapparent extra foreign eggs. Lyon thinks that means the coots somehow kept a count of both their own eggs an d the suspicious ones. “That coots can distinguish their own eggs from the foreign ones is a rare but very convincing example of counting wild animal world,” the ecologistconcluded.26. The meaning of the bird’s name “coot”probably is __________.A. wonderful and amazingB. unusual and remarkableC. secret and unbelievableD. old and silly27. In the passage, “foreign eggs” refers to _________.A. the eggs of the nest ownersB. the eggs of the invadersC.the eggs from foreign countriesD. the eggs unable to be hatched28. Which of the following is the particular way coots often compete?A. To steal some eggs from other nests.B. To put their own eggs into others’ nests.C. To hatch other coots’ eggs.D. To protect their own eggs.29. Which would the nest owners do with the foreign eggs according to thepassage?Ⅰ. Burying them deep in the nests.Ⅱ. Pushing them aside to an unfavorable area.Ⅲ. Hatching them as their own.A. Ⅰ.onlyB. Ⅱ.onlyC. Ⅰ.land Ⅱ.D. Ⅰ.,Ⅱ.and Ⅲ.30. Which of the following is the particular ability the ecologist believes thatthe coot has?A. To trick other coots.B. To fight back the tricks.C. To be alert to the foreign eggs.D. To recognize and count its owneggs.Passage FourNational Aviation and Space Administration (NASA) and its partners in the Inter-national Space Station have agreed in principle to let a 28-year-old South African become the second paying tourist on the orbitingoutpost, the U.S. space agency said on Tuesday.Internet magnate Mark Shuttleworth signed a contract on Dec.4 with the Russian Aviation and Space Agency(RASA) to fly aboard a Soyuz space taxi to the station in April 2023, almost exactly a year after lionaire Dennis Tito became the first to experience space as a paying guest.NASA spokeswoman Kristen Larson said by telephone:”We’ve agreed in principle to the flight of Mr. Shuttleworth. However, there are some final details that need to be taken of .”Larson would not say what detailsneeded resolving , but said the station’s international partners---including the space agencies of Russia, Europe, Japan and Canada---had drafted a set of requirements for space travelers covering “physical ability,psychological ability, language ability” and “length and appropriateness of training.”Outgoing commander Frank Culbertson of the space station said the new crew replacing his was going to be extremely busy. “The station is forworkers, and it puts an additional burden on the crew to have people up here that are not doing science or conducting experiments that areproductive. This is a workplace, a laboratory, a research facili ty,” he said. Space Adventures chief Eric Anderson said he could not disclose what Shuttleworth was paying for the trip, but added that a Russian official had been quoted as saying the price was no worse than Tito’s fare, which was widely reported to be ＄20 million.31.
