Answer the questions below each text by choosing [A], [B], [C] or [D]. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1.Text 1A finding in recent years shows that men cannot manufacture blood as efficiently as women can. This makes surgery riskier for men. Because they do not breathe as often as women, men also need more oxygen. But men breathe more deeply and this exposes them to another risk. They draw more of the air when it is polluted.Men's bones are larger than women's and they are arranged somewhat differently. The feminine walk that evokes so many whistles is a matter of bone structure. A man has broader shoulders and a narrower pelvis, which makes him stride out with no waste motion. A woman's wider pelvis, designed for childbearing, forces her to put more movement into each step she takes with the result that she displays a bit of jiggle and sway as she walks.If you think a man is brave because he can climb a ladder to clean out the roof gutters, don't forget it is easier for him thanfor a woman. The angle at which a woman's thigh is joined to her knees makes climbing difficult for her, no matter whether it is a ladder or stairs or a mountain that she is tackling.A man's skin is thicker than a woman's and not nearly as soft. This prevents the sun's radiation from getting through, which is why men wrinkle less than women do. Women have a thin layer of fat just under the skin and there is a plus to this greater fat reserve. It acts as an invisible fur coat to keep a woman warmer in the winter. Women also stay cooler in summer. Because the fat layer helpsinsulate them against heat. Men's fat is distributed differently. And they do not have that layer of it underneath their skin. In fact, they have considerably less fat than women and more lean mass. 41 percent of a man's body is muscle compared to thirty-five percent for women, which means that men have more muscle power. When we mention strength, almost 90 percent of a man's weight is strength compared to about 50 percent of a woman's weight.The higher proportion of muscle to fat makes it easier for men to lose weight. Muscle burns up five more calories a pound than fat does just to maintain itself. So when a man wants to lose weight, the pounds roll off much faster. For all men's muscularity they do not have the energy reserves women do. They have more start-up energy, but the fat tucked away in women's nooks and crannies provides a rich energy reserve that men lack.Cardiologists at the University of Alabama who tested healthy women on treadmills discovered that over the years the female capacity for exercise far exceeds the male capacity. A woman of sixty who is in good health can exercise up to 90 percent of what she could do when she was twenty. A man of sixty has only 60 percent left of his capacity as a twenty-year-old.41. That boys suffer more from air pollution can possibly be justified by the fact that ______.[A] the male have larger bones than the female[B] women can manufacture blood more efficiently than men[C] men usually breathe more deeply than women[D] women breathe as often as men42. The different ways men and women move their body indicatethat ______.[A] bone structures in men and women are arranged differently[B] women's bones are more ready to movement[C] men always move their bodies with waste motions[D] women are good at climbing upwards43. It can be concluded from the passage that ______.[A] men suffer more from sun's radiation than women do[B] men will be more exhausted than women after a long trip[C] the higher proportion of fat in women's body makes themeasier to lose weight[D] an aged man can still exercise his body as he was young44. The best title for the above article is ______.[A] Why Men Lack Capacity for Exercise over the Years[B] How Men's Bones Are Arranged Differently from Women' s[C] Studies on Differences and Similarities between Men and Women[D] Men and Women: Some Differences45. Which of the following statements is NOT true according tothe passage?[A] More oxygen needs to be prepared when a man is having surgery.[B] Man's courage has nothing to do with male's body structure.[C] A woman usually stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter.[D] It is easier for a man to lose his weight.Text 2More than 30,000 drivers and passengers who sit in the front of the vehicles are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third floor building. Wearing a seat belt saves lives: it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than a half.Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in mostvehicles must wear a seat belt. If you do not, you will be fined upto £50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wear your belt. But it will be the driver's responsibility to make sure thatchildren under 14 do not ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.However, when you're reversing your car, you do not have to wear a seat belt; or when you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember that you may be taken to court for not doing so, and you may be fined if you cannot prove that you have been excused from wearing it.46. How many people in the front of the vehicles are killed or seriously injured every year?[A] 30,000.[B] 60,000.[C] Approximately 30,000.[D] Above 30,000.47. Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle ______.[A] reduces road accidents to more than a half[B] saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour[C] reduces the death rate in traffic accidents[D] saves more than 15,000 lives each year48. It is the driver's responsibility to ______.[A] make the front seat passengers wear a seat belt[B] make the front seat children under 14 wear a seat belt[C] stop children riding in the front seat[D] wear a seat belt each time he drives49. According to the text, which of the following people ridingin the front does NOT have to wear a seat belt?[A] Someone who is backing into a parking space.[B] Someone who is picking up the children from the local school.[C] Someone who is delivering invitation letters.[D] Someone who is under 14.50. For some people, it may be better ______.[A] to wear a seat belt for health reasons[B] not to wear a seat belt for health reasons[C] to get a valid medical certificate before wearing a seat belt[D] to pay a fine rather than wear a seat beltText 3I remember the way the light touched her hair. She turned her head, and our eyes met, a momentary awareness in that raucous fifth grade classroom. I felt as though I' d been struck a blow under the heart. Thus began my first love affair.Her name was Rachel, and I mooned my way through the grade and high school, stricken at the mere sight of her, tongue-tied in her presence. Does anyone, anymore, linger in the shadows of evening, drawn by the pale light of a window—her window—like some hapless summer insect? That delirious swooning, asexual but urgent and obsessive, that made me awkward and my voice crack, is like some impossible dream now.I would catch sight of her, walking down an aisle of trees to or from school, and I' d become paralyzed. She always seemed so poised, so self-possessed. At home, I' d relive each encounter, writhing at the thought of my inadequacies. We eventually got acquainted and socialized as we entered our adolescence, she knew I had a case on her, and I sensed her affectionate tolerance for me. "Going steady" implied a maturity we still lacked. Her Orthodox Jewish upbringing and my own Catholic scruples imposed an inhibited grace that made even kissing a distant prospect, however fervently desired. I managed to hold her once at a dance-chaperoned, of course. Our embrace made her giggle, a sound so trusting that I hated myself for what I'd been thinking. At any rate, my love for Rachel remained unrequited. Wegraduated from high school, she went on to college, and I joined the Army.When World War II engulfed us, I was sent overseas. For a time we corresponded, and her letters were the highlight of those grinding endless years. Once she sent me a snapshot of herself in a bathing suit, which drove me to the wildest of fantasies. I mentioned the possibility of marriage in my next letter, and almost immediately her replies became less frequent, less personal. Her Dear John letter finally caught up with me while I was awaiting discharge. She gently explained the impossibility of a marriage between us. Looking back on it, I must have recovered rather quickly, although for the first few months I believed I didn’t want to live. Like Rachel, I found someone else, whom I learned to love with a deep and permanent commitment that has lasted to this day.51. According to the passage, how old was the author when hisfirst love affair began?[A] Before he entered his teens.[B] In his early teens.[C] In his middle teens.[D] When he was just out of his teens.52. How did the author behave as a boy in love?[A] His first love motivated him toward hard study.[B] His first love evoked sentimental memories.[C] He was overpowered by wild excitement and passion.[D] He fulfilled his expectations and desires.53. According to the passage, what held them back from a loving kiss?[A] Her Jewish origin did not allow it.[B] His Catholic adherence forbade it.[C] They were not sure whether it was proper or ethical to kiss in line with their religious decorum.[D] Kissing was found to be inelegant or even distasteful.54. According to the passage, what was Rachel's response to the author's tender affection before the war?[A] She recognized and accepted his love affectionately.[B] She thwarted his affection by flatly turning him down.[C] She fondly permitted him to adore her without losing her own heart to him.[D] She didn't care for him at all and only took delight in playing with his feelings.55. Which of the following best describes the organization of the passage?[A] Statement and example.[B] Cause and effect.[C] Order of importance.[D] Linear description.Text 4In the late years of the nineteenth century, "capital" and "labour" were enlarging and perfecting their rival organizations on modern lines. Many an old firm was replaced by a limited liability company with a bureaucracy of salaried managers. The change met the technical requirements of the new age by engaging a large professional element and prevented the decline in efficiency that so commonly spoiled the fortunes of family firms in the second and third generation after the energetic founders. It was moreover a step away from individual initiative, towards collectivism and municipal and state-owned business. The railway companies, though still private business managed for the benefit of shareholders, were very unlike old family business. Meanwhile the great municipalities went intobusiness to supply lighting, trams and other services to the taxpayers.The growth of the limited liability company and municipal business had important consequences. Such large, impersonal manipulation of capital and industry greatly increased the numbers and importance of shareholders as a class, an element in nationallife representing irresponsible wealth detached from the land and the duties of the landowners; and almost equally detached from the responsible management of business. During the nineteenth century, America, Africa, India, Australia and parts of Europe were being developed by British capital, and British shareholders were thus enriched by the world's movement towards industrialisation. Townslike Bournemouth and Eastbourne sprang up to house large "comfortable" classes who had retired on their incomes, and who had no relation to the rest of the community except that of drawing dividends and occasionally attending a shareholders' meeting to dictate their orders to the management. On the other hand "shareholding" meant leisure and freedom which was used by many of the later Victorians for the highest purpose of a great civilisation.The "shareholders" as such had no knowledge of the lives, thoughts or needs of employees in the company in which they held shares, and their influence on the relations of capital and labour was not good. The paid manager acting for the company was in more direct relation with the workers and their demands, but even he had seldom familiar personal knowledge of the workmen which the employers had often had under the more patriarchal system of the old family business. Indeed the mere size of operations and the number of workmen involved rendered such personal relations impossible. Fortunately, however, the increasing power and organisation of the trade unions, at least in all skilled trades, enabled the workmen tomeet on equal terms the managers of the companies who employed them. The cruel discipline of the strike and lockout taught the two parties to respect each other's strength and understand the value of fair negotiation.56. The author says that old family firms ______.[A] were ruined by the younger generations[B] failed for lack of individual initiative[C] lacked efficiency compared with modern companies[D] were able to supply adequate services to taxpayers57. The growth of limited liability companies resulted in ______.[A] the separation of capital from management[B] the ownership of capital by managers[C] the emergence of capital and labour as two classes[D] the participation of shareholders in land ownership58. The text indicates that ______.[A] some countries developed quickly because of the emergence of the limited liability companies[B] the tide of industrialisation would widely benefit British shareholders greatly[C] shareholders contributed a lot to the fast growth of the British economy[D] the system of shareholding impaired the management of modern companies59. We learn from the text that ______.[A] shareholders often cast negative influence on the well-being of workers[B] owners of traditional firms enjoyed a good relationship with their employees[C] limited liability companies were too large to run smoothly[D] trade unions had a positive role on workers and the management60. The author appears to be very critical of ______.[A] family firm owners[B] shareholders[C] managers[D] landownersPart BRead the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.61) In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality, and this in turn leads to further sharing. 62)In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than their parents did and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather than by the "battle of the sexes".If the process goes too far and man's role is not regarded as important as before—and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in reverse.We should reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of "Momism", but we don't want to changeit into a"Neo-papism". What we need is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equality. 63) There are signs that psychologists and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit, nor all the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman's place is at home. 64) We are beginning,however, to study a man's place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.65) The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family member needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is relevant not only to a healthy democracy, but also to a healthy family.Section Ⅳ WritingDirections:66.

They were waiting for a train that was very late. To pass the time, they began talking to each other. At first, they talked about the weather and their work. Then Paul said, "Tell me—what would you most like to do if your doctor tell you that you have only three months to live?"The other two men thought about this for a while, then Carl spoke.“ Well,” he said, “if I have only three months to live, I’ll take all my money out of the bank and go to foreign countries for holidays with my best friend, Erik. I’d like to travel to the places in the world as many as possible. And I’ll stay at the best hotels and then eat the best food. I think I’ll have a wonderful time.”“That’s very interesting,” Paul said. With these words, he turned to the other man, saying, “And what about you?”“I’ll tell you a secret,” Allan said. “I always want to be a racing driver. So if I have only three months to live, the first thing I’d like to do is to sell my house. With the money I’ll buy the fastest car in the world. Maybe I can enter all the big motor races.”Then he laughed, “I might even end up (以……而告终) world champion.”“Now it’s your turn,” Allan went on, “If your doctor tell you the bad news, what would you most like to do?”“Oh,” said Paul with a smile. “I’ll go and see another doctor.”1.The three men were talking .A.in the post officeB. in the waiting roomC. on the trainD. on the chairs2.The man called answered the question first.A.CarlB.

He was given the silver cup. “It isn’t rightly mine,” he said, when he was holding the cup.” “It was won two years ago when I was on holiday in…”“A family was staying at my hotel at that time. Mrs. Prig, the mother, was told that I played chess; and she begged me to give her young son a game. ‘He’s only ten. ‘ she said, ‘I’ve been told that he plays quite well. ‘“Well, as you can guess, I wasn’t too happy. A player likes the opponent (对手) to play as well as he does. But it was holiday time and I agreed to play. We placed the board (棋盘) in the garden. The game began. I hoped it would be quick —and so it was.“Isoon knew that David Prig was no learner. After ten minutes his sister came outside and began to play tennis against a wall. The boy seemed to lose interest in our game. He moved a piece (棋子) without care. I gave my attention to the board. “Call me when you are ready, Mr. Watson,” he said.When I was ready? I looked up. He had gone off to play with his sister. I studied the board, and found I was driven into corner. So it went on with David: a quick move, then tennis, back to the board, then back to his sister. My difficult condition became impossible to change. I was beaten. Oh, so easily, by a ten-year-old chess player. He was the winner—in twenty-eight minutes.“David Prig, a name to remember. I had a chance to use his game today, and it won this cup for me. To him, of course, it is only o ne of a hundred, or perhaps a thousand, winning games.”6.When Mr. Watson said, “It isn’t rightly mine.

One step is to make sure that the house seems a lived-in one. Living room curtains should be pulled down only half-way. Bedrooms that usually have the curtainspulled down at night should be left down . Another is to make sure that all outside locks are the dead-bolt type (双保险) . Still another is to leave several 100W lights burning and make sure that one is in the kitchen.Lights that turned on and off by themselves are the best. Then, too, it is a good idea to leave the radio turned on and set to a talking station. Any type of speaking makes a thief think twice before trying to enter. Finally, while away on holiday,make sure that nothing collects in front or in the house. Particularly, make certain that the newspaper is stopped and that a trusted neighbour has been asked to pick up the mail. Thieves are especially quick to notice piled-up newspapers and overpiled mail boxes.36. Why did the writer begin this piece with question?A. Because he wanted to catch the readers' attention.B. Because he wanted to have the readers guess the answer before reading.C. Because he wanted to sum up (概括) the topic of the piece.D. Because he wanted to make the readers understand him better.37. The word "live-in" in this passage means ______________.A. left emptyB. lively and cheerfulC. now being used by peopleD. laid inside38. What does the writer advise the people to do?A. Ask a neighbour to pick up the daily mailB. Make sure to have lights that turn on and off by themselves.C. Make sure the newspaper is handed over every day.D. Pull the living room curtains down.39. The most important room to leave a light burning in is the _________.A. bedroomB. kitchenC. living roomD. sitting-room( B )Mr Richards has worked in a small seaside town for about ten years and he and his wife have a comfortable house near the sea.During the winter they would be quite happy, but every summer a lot of their relatives used to spend holiday in their house , and it was much cheaper than staying in hotel . Finally one day in June Mr Richards complained to a clever friend of his who lived in the same place. "One of my wife's cousins is going to bring her husband and children and spend ten days with us next month again. How have you prevented all your relatives from coming to live with you in summer ?" "Oh,"the friend answered, "that is not difficult. I just borrow money from all the rich ones, and lend it to all the poor ones. After that, they seldom come again." Hearing this Mr Richards smiled.40. The relatives preferred to stay in Mr Richards' house because _____________.A. it was cool in summerB. they might spend less moneyC. they were more welcomeD. it was a comfortable place41.

Gradually Mr Richards succeeded in keeping his relatives out in summerD. sNone of Richards' relatives came to the seaside town fortheir holidays again( C )I wonder why American towns looks so much alike that I sometimes mix them up in my memory. The standard influence(影响)of mass production whose agents(代理商)are the travelling salesman, the mail-order house, the five-and-ten cent stores, the chain stores, the movies can hardly explain it. If you stay two days in Bologna and in Ferrare, or in Arles and in Avignon, you will never mix them up in all your life. But it may well happen that after you spend two days in St.Louis and in Kansas City the appearances of these two cities soon mix up. I think the reason for this is that these towns have not yet had time enough to develop their own characters. Similarly, children are much less different from each other than grown people.44. Which two of the following towns look so much alike?A. Bologna and FerrareB. Arles and AvignonC. St. Louis and Kansas CityD. Bologna and St. Louis45. In line 4 the word "it" refers to ____________.A. standard of townsB. similarity of townsC. people's memoryD. mass production46. American towns look very much alike because of ____________.A. the standard influence of mass productionB. their different appearancesC. not being fully developedD. having everything in common( D )Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, but most of them travel alone.And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere neat it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to come near our sun, Just as the sun and the moon raise tides(潮汐)on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun .But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, atlast forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance(动荡) came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space.These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets(行星).47. Millions of stars are _______________.A. following a regular path in spaceB. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universeD. always travelling together48. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because__________.A. a large tidal wave of a star travelled over the surface of the sunB. another star happened to come near the sunC. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD. the star moved away from the sun49. The article suggests that _____________ .A. our earth exists before the sunB. how space formedC. no one knows where the earth comes fromD. our earth used to be a high mountain on the sun50. The expression "the cause of the disturbance" refers to_________.A. the large tidal waveB. the powerful tidal pullC. the star coming near the sunD. one of the sun's planets51. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers __________.A. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itB. how the high mountains were formed on the sunC. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerfulD. where the planets in the universe came from( E )Contacts(交往) between Japan and the rest of the world have grown a great deal in the twentieth century. In the last thirty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices in Japan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world.Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder the foreign businessman and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.The American businessman, for example , wants of start talking business immediately . He wants quick decisions. He does not wait. TheJapanese, on the other hand , likes to arrive at decisions gradually after giving them a great deal of thought.Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is because of cultural difference for a Japanese to say "No" directly.In English, it is easy to say "No" to something we do not want to do. But in Japan it is very difficult to say "No". To refuse an invitation or a request with "No", or a similar phrase, is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish(自私)and unfriendly. So instead of saying "No" directly, the Japanese have developed many ways to avoid saying "No". These enable them to avoid hurting other people's feeling. However, this often makes communication with the Japanese difficult for foreigners to understand and follow.52. Paragraph one tells us that ______________ .A.
