(1 point each, 15 points in ali)Shoe is a covering for the foot. Shoes have a 16A , and most shoes also have a heel. The upper part of most shoes extends no 17D than the ankle. Boots are footwear that reaches beyond the ankle. People wear shoes in order to 18B their feet from the environment, sharp objects, and uncomfortable surfaces.Fashion often determines shoe styles. The desire to be 19A has led to unusual styles. Many European men of the 1300's wore shoes with an extremely long toe. Sometimes the long toe had to be fastened to the knee with a chain so that the 20C would not trip.Most shoes are made of leather. Other shoe materials include canvas, velvet, and such 21C substances as plastics. Materials and styles 22B somewhat, depending on climate, custom, and other 23C . For example, to keep their feet dry from the 24A ground, many farmers in the Netherlands wear heavy wooden shoes.No one knows 25D people first began to wear shoes. The first foot covetings worn in cold regions were probably baglike wrappings made of animal fur. The first known footwear used in 26A surroundings consisted of sandals made of plant fibers or leather. The ancient Egyptians wore such sandals 27B 3700 B.C., and the ancient Greeks and Romans also wore sandals. In China, people wore cloth shoes thousands of years ago.Throughout 28C , people have worn shoes not only for protection but also for decoration and to 29B social status. Shoe styles have gone 30C and out of fashion, just as they do today. For example, the fashion in women's shoes changed to rounded toes in the 1500's, low heels by the late 1500's, and high heels in the 1600's.16. A. sole B. bottom C. base D. core17.

(2 points each, 20 points in all)Passage 1For 28 years I drove a New York City taxi. Now, if you were to ask me what I had for breakfast yesterday, I probably couldn't tell you. But the memory of one fare is so vivid. I'll remember it all my days.It was a sunny spring morning. I was cruising down York Avenue looking for a customer. A well-dressed man reached the cab and jumped in. "LaGuardia Airport, please," he said.As always, I wondered about my passenger. Was this guy a talker, a mummy, a newspaper reader? After a few moments, he started a conversation. "How do you like driving a cab?" "I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes. But if I could get a job making $100 a week more, I'd take it just like you would." His reply intrigued me. "I would not change jobs if it meant I had to take a cut of a hundred a week." I'd never heard anyone say such a thing. "What do you do?" "I'm in the neurology department at New York Hospital."I've always been curious about people, and I've tried to learn what I could from them. Many times during long rides, I'd developed a rapport with my passengers--and quite often I'd received very good advice from accountants, lawyers, and plumbers. Maybe it was that this fellow clearly loved his work; maybe it was just the pleasant mood of a spring morning. But I decided to ask for his help. "Could I ask a big favor of you?" He didn't answer. "I have a son, 15, a good kid. He's doing well in school. He wants a job. But a 15-year-old can't get hired unless hisold man knows someone who owns a business, and I don't." I paused. "Is there any possibility that you might get him some kind of a summer job even if he doesn't get paid?" He still wasn't talking, and I was starting to feel foolish. Finally, at the airport, he said; "Well, the medical students have a summer research project. Maybe he could fit in. Have him send me his school record." He scribbled something and paid me. It was the last time I ever saw him.That evening, sitting with my family, I pulled the scrap from my pocket. "Robbie," I announced proudly, "this could be a summer job for you." He read it out loud: "Fred Plum, N.Y. Hosp.""Is this a joke?" said Robbie.After I nagged, cajoled, yelled, and finally threatened to cut off his allowance, Robbie sent off his grades the next morning. But gradually the incident was forgotten.Two weeks later, when I arrived home from work, my son was beaming. He handed me a letter addressed to him. Robbie got the job. The white lab coat he wore made him feel a lot more important than he really was as he followed Dr. Plum around the hospital, doing minor tasks for him. The following summer, Robbie worked at the hospital again. He was given more responsibility. As high school graduation neared, Dr. Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for college. Much to our delight, Robbie was accepted at Brown University. Robbie worked at the hospital for a third summer and gradually developed a love of the medical profession. He applied to medical school, and Dr. Plum again wrote letters. Robbie was admitted to New York Medical College.Some might call it fate, and I guess it was. But it shows you that big opportunities can come out of ordinary encounters--even something as ordinary as a taxi fide.41. What was ,:he narrator's habit as a taxi driver? (A )A. To guess what kind of persons his customers were.B. To make friends with those customers he liked.C. To complain about his job to his customers.D. To ask for help from his customers.42. What was the narrator's impression of the doctor after some talking? (B )A. He was not very dependable.B. He was happy with his job.C. He was not very sociable.D. He was kind and helpful.43. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "cajoled" in Paragraph 7? (C )A. Promised.B. Protested.C. Persuaded.D. Predicted.44. What role did the doctor play in Robbie’s life? (D )A. He encouraged Robbie to apply to medical school.B. He gave Robbie advice about choosing universities.C. He wrote recommendation letters for Robbie to find jobs.D. He offered Robbie opportunities that helped shape his future.45. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage? (C )A. Wait for OpportunitiesB. An Opportunity from a DoctorC. Unexpected Opportunities in LifeD. Ask for Help at Every OpportunityPassage 2In most of Asia, marriage is widespread and illegitimacy (未婚生育) almost unknown. In contrast, half of marriages in some Western countries end in divorce, and half of all children are born outside marriage.Yet marriage is changing fast in Asia. What's happening there is a flight from marriage. More and more Asians choose to remain unmarried because they are unwilling to get hitched. In fact, a lot of them are not marrying at all. So far, the trend has not affected Asia's two giants, China and India. But it is likely to, as the economic factors that have driven it elsewhere in Asia sweep through those two countries as well.Women are retreating from marriage as they go into the workplace. That's partly because, for a woman, being both employed and married is tough in Asia. Women there are the primary caregivers for husbands, children and, often, for ageing parents; and even when in full-time employment, they are expected to continue to play this role. This is tree elsewhere in the world, but the burden that Asian women carry is particularly heavy. Japanese women, who typically work 40 hours a week in the office, then do, on average, another 30 hours of housework. Their husbands, on average, do three hours. Not surprisingly, Asian women have an unusually pessimistic view of marriage.At the same time as employment makes marriage tougher for women, it offers them an alternative. More women are financially independent, so more of them can pursue a single life that may appeal more than the drudgery of a traditional marriage. More education has also contributed to the decline of marriage, because Asian women with the most education have always been the most reluctant to wed.The flight from marriage in Asia is thus the result of the greater freedom that women enjoy these days, which is to be celebrated. But it is also creating social problems. Compared with the West, Asian countries have invested less in pensions and other forms of social protection, on the assumption that the family will look after ageing or ill relatives. That can no longer be taken for granted. The decline of marriage is also contributing to the collapse in the birth rate. That is beginning to cause huge tlemographic problems, as populations age with startling speed. And there are other less obvious issues. Less marriage might mean more crime.Can marriage be revived in Asia? Maybe, if expectations of those roles of both sexes change, but shifting traditional attitudes is hard. Governments cannot legislate away popular prejudices. They can, though, encourage change. Relaxing divorce laws might, paradoxically, boost marriage. Women who now steer clear of marriage might be more willing to tie the knot if they know it can be untied not just because they can get out of the marriage if it doesn't work, but also because their freedom to leave might keep their husbands on their toes. Family law should give divorced women a more generous share of the couple's assets. Governments should also legislate to get employers to offer both maternal and paternal leave, and provide or subsidize child care. If taking on such expenses helped promote family life, it might reduce the burden on the state of looking after the old.Asian governments have long taken the view that the superiority of their family life was one of their big advantages over the West. That confidence is no longer warranted. They need to wake up to the huge social changes happening in their countries and think about how to cope with the consequences.46. What is the writer's prediction about marriage in China and India? (A )A. The two countries will be affected by the non-marriage trend.B. The roles of both sexes in the two countries will change.C. The divorce rate in the two countries will go up.D. Marriage will be boosted in the two countries.47. What contributes to the decline of marriage in Asian countries? (D )A. The fear that women might lose their jobs.B. The fear that kids might lack parental care.C. The fear that marriage might end in divorce.D. The fear that marriage might keep women overburdened.48. What can be learned about Asian women compared with Western women? (D )A. They are less worried about burdens brought about by marriage.B. They are more confident about their role in marriage.C. They hold more practical ideas about marriage.D. They feel less positive about marriage.49. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "drudgery" in Paragraph 4? (B )A. An annoying idea.B. Boring work.C. Legal protection.D. A happy life.50. What can governments do to deal with the decline of marriage in Asian countries? (C )A. Make laws to fight against prejudices.B. Emphasize the superiority of family life.C. Protect women's rights and relieve their pressure.D. Reduce the divorce rate and stabilize the birth rate.V.

and complete the statements or answer the questions with the correct choices.Write your right letters on the Answer Sheet:(20%)Passage 1“Family”is of course an elastic(弹性的) word.But when British people say that their society is based on family life,they are thinking of “family”in its narrow,peculiarly European sense of mother,father,and children living together alone in their own house as an economic and social unit.Thus,every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent family—hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life.For both the man and the woman,marriage means leaving one's parents and starting one's own life.The man's first duty will then be to his wife,and the wife's to her husband.He will be entirely responsible for her financial support,and she for the running of the new home.Their children will be their common responsibility and theirs alone.Neither the wife's parents nor the husband's,nor their brothers or sisters,aunts or uncles,have any right to interfere with them—they are their own masters.Readers of novels like Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girl's parents,that is,it was the parents' duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter,preferably a rich one,and by skillful encouragement—lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her.Until that time,the girl was protected and maintained in the parents' home and the financial relief(减轻) of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry(嫁妆).It is very different today.Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before their marriage.This has had two results.A girl chooses her own husband,and she gets no dowry.1.What does the author mean by “Family is of course an elastic word"?A.Different families have different ways of life.B.Different times produce different families.C.Different nations have different families.D.Different definitions could be given to the word.2.For an English family,the husband's duty is ______.A.financial while the wife's is running the homeB.defending the family which the wife's is running the homeC.supporting the family while the wife's is financialD.independent while the wife's is dependent3.Everything is decided in a family ______.A.with the help of their parentsB.by the coupleC.by brothers and sistersD.with the help of aunts and uncles4.What is true concerning the book Pride and Prejudice?A.It is the best book on marriage.B.It is a handbook of marriage.C.It provides a lot of information of former time wealthy familiesD.It gives quite some idea of English social life in the past.5.With regard to marriage in Britain,present-ay girls differ from former-ime girls in ______.A.the right familyB.more parental supportC.social positionD.choosing husbandsPassage 2The rat has many enemies and its greatest enemy is man.Nevertheless,rats are survivors.Although man has carried on an endless war against them,rats have methodically and systematically colonized the world.In almost every country from the freezing cold of the Arctic regions to the blazing heat of the tropics,rats are to be found,growing,increasing and multiplying.Apart from their ability to adapt themselves to varying climatic conditions,rats possess another quality that gives them an advantage in extending their boundaries.More so than most other animals,including snakes and spiders,they cause fear.Why should this be so?Certainly they carry disease and man is slow to forget the Black Plague(黑死病)carried by rats,that killed more than one-hird of the earth's population in the fourteenth century.Also rats have been known to bite babi es in their cots,but the number of such attacks is very much exaggerated.One reads of the danger of being attacked by a cornered rat but they belong to fiction;rats do not go for your throat,as many would have us believe.Furthermore,it is difficult to believe that the rats' appearance can be a source of fear;the common black or brown rat can hardly be regarded as an ugly creature while its cousin, the acacia rat,is quite pretty and gentle.6.It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A.man is the rat's worst enemyB.man is no worse than many of the rat's enemyC.man's greatest enemy is ratD.rats have many enemies worse than man7.It can be concluded from the passage that ______.A.rats dislike heat but do not mind the coldB.rats prefer the heat to the coldC.rats dislike both the heat and the coldD.rats do not mind the heat or the cold8.Which of the following is true of the rats?A.They are more harmful than any other animal.B.They make people afraid.C.They are pretty and gentle.D.They frequently attack babies.9.According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?A.The number of rats is decreasing quickly.B.Rats usually go for your throat at night.C.Rats will disappear at last because they carry disease.D.Rats will survive because they can live anywhere.10.By which of the following could the “exaggerated"(sentence

refute the charge by health experts that cigarette smoking can be dangerous to your health.Now the institute has taken a new tack.In an advertising campaign last fall,the industry trade association paid no attention to health questions and emphasized that no smoking could be dangerous to local economy.“Tobacco means $1,193,000,000 to Virginia,"said one advertisement,“Virginia tobacco helps pave Virginia roads,build Virginia parks and support Virginia social programs.Tobacco means 90,000 Virginia jobs." The message was repeated with an appropriate dollar figures in six other tobacco states.The statistics are based on a study by the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School,which calculates that,overall,the U.S.tobacco industry generates $30 billion in tax revenue(税收) each year.\!If you look at the economic contribution tobacco makes to America," says Edward Horrigan,Jr.,Chairman of R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Co.,“there's no reason for us to be ashamed of the business we are in.”The American Cancer Society disagrees.While Virginia is collecting its $1.2 billion in tobacco revenue this year,the Society said,2,900 of its citizens will be victims of lung cancer.Thousands more,the Society could add,will be victims of other diseases strongly associated with smoking.And the U.S. Surgeon General estimates the direct dollar coats of treating smokingrelated illnesses nationally at more than $13 billion a year—not to mention another $25 billion in lost wages and productivity.11.On what ground did the Tobacco Institute dispute with health experts?A.The Tobacco Institute was unwilling to pay more tax.B.The Tobacco Institute argued that much of the government's revenue comes from tobacco tax.C.The Tobacco Institute argued that cigarette smoking can be dangerous to your health.D.The Tobacco Institute argued that cigarette smoking can't be dangerous to your health.12.“Tobacco means $1,193,000,000 to Virginia,"—that is to say:______.A.Virginia will produce $1,193,000,000 tobacco.B.Tobacco is worth $1,193,000,000 in Virginia.C.Virginia will collect $1,193,000,000 in tobacco revenue.D.There is a heavy tax on tobacco in Virginia.13.Which organization pays attention to the health warning?A.The Industry Trade AssociationB.The Tobacco InstituteC.R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Co..D.The American Cancer Society14.The ernment's annual tobacco revenue is ______.A.$22 billionB.$30 billionC.$1,293,000,000D.$1.2 billion15.Why does Edward Horrigan,Jr.say,“there's no reason for us to be ashamed of the business we arein"?A.Because he thinks that tobacco does much damage to the American economy.B.Because he thinks that tobacco is not harmful to people's health.C.Because he thinks that tobacco makes a great contribution to American economy.D.Because he thinks that tobacco can be dangerous to the American people.Passage 4One night,a little before nine o'clock,Dr.Van Eyck answered his telephone.He heard a voice:“This is Dr.Haydon at the hospital in Glens Falls.We have a very sick boy here in our hospital.He has just been brought in with a bullet in his brain.He is very weak and may not live.We should operate at once,but I'm not a surgeon,you know."“I'm 60 miles from Glens Falls,"said Dr.Van Eyck,“Have you called Dr.Mercer?He lives in Glens Falls."“He's out of town,"said Dr.Haydon,“I'm calling you because the boy comes from your city.He was visiting here and shot himself while playing with a gun."“You say the boy is from Albany?"asked Dr.Van Eyck,“What is his name?"“Arthur Cunningham."“I don't think I know him.But I'll get there as soon as I can.It's snowing here,but I think I can get there before 12 o'clock."A few minutes later,the surgeon's car had to stop for a red light at the edge of town.A man in an old black coat opened the door of the car and got in.“Drive on,"he said,“I've got a gun."“I'm a doctor,"said Van Eyck,“I'm on my way to the hospital to operate on a very sick."“Don't talk,"said the man in the black coat,“Just drive."A mile out of town he ordered the doctor to stop the car and get out.Then the man drove away,apparently in a great hurry.A half hour later Dr.Van Eyck found a telephone and called a taxi.It was after two o'clock in the morning when the surgeon arrived at the hospital in Glens Falls.Dr.Haydon was waiting for him.“I did my best,"said Van Eyck,“but I was stopped on the road and my car."“It was good of you to try," said Dr.Haydon,“The boy died an hour ago."The two doctors walked by the door of the hospital waiting room.There sat the man in the old black coat with his head in his hands.“Mr.Cunningham," said Dr.Haydon to the man,“this is Dr.Van Eyck.He is a surgeon who came all the way from Albany to try to save your boy."16.Why did Dr.Haydon ask Dr.Van Eyck to come to Glens Falls?A.The boy wished to see a familiar face.B.He needed an assistant.C.The boy needed the help of a surgeon.D.The boy lived in the same city as Dr.Van Eyck.17.Why did the boy have to go to a hospital?A.He wounded himself while toying with a gun.B.He had a heart attack.C.He had driven a car too fast.D.He had shot himself with a gun in an attempt to commit suicide.18.What did Dr.Van Eyck do after his car was taken?A.He telephoned Dr.Haydon.B.He walked to the hospital.C.He got in touch with Mr.Cunningham.D.He called a taxi.19.What has happened to the boy before Dr.Van Eyck got to the hospital?A.He had left the hospital.B.He had got better.C.He had died.D.He had got worse.20.Who had taken the doctor's car?A.A taxi driver.B.The boy's father.C.Another doctor.D.A robber they didn't know.Ⅶ.Translate the following into English with words or phrases given in brackets,and then write your

Write your right letter on the Answer Sheet:(20%)Passage 13Public goods are those commodities whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively excluded. Everybody is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities and one person’s use does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else’s enjoying the same good.Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect. A flood control dam is a public good. Once the dam is built, all persons living in the area will benefit—irrespective of(不考虑)their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam. The same holds true for highway signs or aids navigation(航海).Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from use of the lighthouse for navigational purposes. National defense is another example. Even a person who voted against military costs or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded.It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefits associated with a pubilc good. There is no practicable way of charging drivers for looking at highway signs, sailors for watching a lighthouse and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense. Because the market does not provide the necessary signals, economic study is to be replaced by the impersonal judgment of the marketplace.1.What does the passage mainly discuss?A. A specific group of commodities.B. The economic structure of the marketplace.C. Mechanisms for safer navigation.D. The advantage of lowering taxes.2.Which of the following would NOT be an example of a public good as described in the passage?A.A stoplight.B.A bridge.C.A fire truck.D.A taxicab.3.In Paragraph 2,the word “holds”(Para. 2,Line 3)could best be replaced by which of the following?A. hasB. isC. graspsD. carries4.According to the passage, finding out the social costs of a public good is a _________.A. matter of personal judgmentB. daily administrative dutyC. difficult procedureD. citizen’s responsibility5.Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the first two paragraphs?A. A general concept is defined and then examples are given.B. Several generalizations are presented from which various conclusions are drawn.C. Persuasive language is used to argue against a popular idea.D. Suggestions for the application of an economic concept are offered.Passage 2At the bottom of the world lies a mighty continent still wrapped in the Ice Age and, until recent times, unknown to man. It is a great landmass with mountain ranges whose extent and elevation are still uncertain. Much of the continent is a complete blank on our maps. Man has explored, on foot, less than one percent of its area.4Antarctica differs fundamentally from the Arctic regions. The Arcitc is an ocean, covered with drifting packed ice and hemmed in by the landmasses of Europe, Asia, and North America. The Antarctic is a continent almost as large as Europe and Australia combined, centered roughly on the South Pole and surrounded by the most unobstructed water areas of the world—the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.The continental ice sheet is more than two miles high in its center; thus, the air over the Antarctic is far more iced than it is over the Arctic regions. This cold air current from the land is so forceful that it makes the nearby seas the stormiest in the world and makes unlivable those regions whose counterparts(配对物) at the opposite end of the globe are livable. Thus, more than million persons live within 2,000 miles of the North Pole in an area that includes most of Alaska, Siberia, and Scandinavia—a region rich in forest and mining industries. Apart from a handful of weather stations, within the same distance of the South Pole there is not a single tree, industry or settlement.6.The best title for this selection would be ______.A. IcelandB. Land of OpportunityC. Utopia at LastD. The Unknown Continent7.At the time this article was written, our knowledge of Antarctica was ______.A. very limitedB. vastC. fairly richD. nonexistent8.Antarctica is bordered by the ______.A. Pacific OceanB. Indian OceanC. Atlantic OceanD. All three9.The Antarctic is made uninhabitable primarily by ______.A. iceB. calm seasC. cold airD. lack of knowledge about the continent10.According to this article ______.A. 2,000 people live on the Antarctic ContinentB. a million people live within 2,000 miles of the South PoleC. weather conditions within a 2,000 miles radius of the South Pole make settlements impracticalD. only a handful of natives inhabit AntarcticaPassage 3If there is any single element that makes for success in living, it is the ability to profit by defeat. Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to study defeat and actually profit by it in his next task. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are sure indeed to fail. For it isn’t defeat that makes you fail; it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are daily incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it without humiliation, study it and learn why you failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to heal its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can arouse(唤起) within use such a compelling desire to succeed. If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended(悬挂).It is this same reaction that should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you use the power which defeat gives, you can5accomplish with it far more than you are capable of.11.What does the author know?A. It’s not mentioned in the passage.B .He knows every success in life.C. He knows at least several cases of success.D. He knows every success that has been achieved by man.12.The person who was able to analyze defeat is likely ______.A. to achieve successB. to be a successorC. to be ashamed of his defeatD. to let a baby grasp a rod13.The author ______.A. advises you to confuse defeat with failureB. wants you to mistake defeat for failureC. orders you to confuse defeat with failureD. warns you not to confuse defeat with failure14.Defeat is valuable ______.A. in that it provides the guide and encouragement to successB. because it forces you to face it without humiliationC. because it makes you failD. because of your own refusal to see in it the guide and encouragement to success15.What does the author advice one to do with the power which defeat gives?One should ______.A. make unfair use of itB. turn it to practical accountC. explore itD. explain itPassage 4Dorothea Dix left home at an early age of her own free will to live with her grandmother.At fourteen, Dorothea was teaching school at Worcester, Massachusetts. A short time after she had begun teaching, she established a school for young girls in her grandparents’ home. Stress was placed on moral character at Dorothea’s school, which she conducted until she was thirty-three.She was forced to give up teaching at her grandparents’ home, however, when she became ill.A few year of inactivity followed.In 1841 Dorothea began to teach again, accepting a Sunday school class in the East Cambridge, Massachusetts’ jail. Here, she first came upon insane people locked up together with criminals.In those days insane people were treated even worse than criminals. There were only a few asylums(疯人院) in the entire country. Therefore jails, poor houses, and houses of correction were used to confine the insane.Dorothea Dix made a careful investigation of the inhuman treatment of the insane. It was considered unfit for a woman to devote herself to such work at this time. But this did not stop Dorothea Dix in her efforts to provide proper medical care for the insane.Gradually, because of her investigations, conditions were improved. More than thirty mental6institutions were founded or reestablished in the United States because of her efforts. Dorothea also extended her investigations to England and to other parts of Europe.During the Civil War, Dorothea served as superintendent(主管) of women hospital nurses in the Union army. When the war was over, she returned to her work of improving conditions for insane people.16.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The Treatment of Mental Illness.B. The Life of a Young English WomanC. An American HumanitarianD. Social Problems of the Nineteenth Century17.The word “stress”in Line 3 could best be replaced by?A. EmphasisB. StrainC. Relative loudnessD. Physical pressure18.How did Dorothea Dix first become aware of the mistreatment of insane people?A. She taught Sunday school in a jailB. She worked in an insane asylum as a young woman.C. Her grandmother treated the mentally ill.D. She was asked to investigate the problem.19.Which of the following statements about Dorothea Dix is best supported by the passage?A. She spent time studying criminal law.B. Many people believed that her work was improper.C. She considered most criminals mentally unstable.D. Her grandmother was a teacher.20.The author implies that Dorothea Dix’s work with the insane was interrupted because of ______.A. an illnessB. her trip to EnglandC. the Civil WarD. her grandmother’s deathⅦ.Translate the following into English with words or phrases given in brackets, and then write your sentences on the Answer Sheet:(25%)1.他出生于两条河流交汇处的一个小镇。

Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to study defeat and actually profit by it in his next task. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are sure indeed to fail. For it isn’t defeat that makes you fail; it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are daily incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it without humiliation, study it and learn why you failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to heal its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can arouse(唤起) within use such a compelling desire to succeed. If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended(悬挂).It is this same reaction that should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you use the power which defeat gives, you can5accomplish with it far more than you are capable of.11.What does the author know?A. It’s not mentioned in the passage.B .He knows every success in life.C. He knows at least several cases of success.D. He knows every success that has been achieved by man.12.The person who was able to analyze defeat is likely ______.A. to achieve successB. to be a successorC. to be ashamed of his defeatD. to let a baby grasp a rod13.The author ______.A. advises you to confuse defeat with failureB. wants you to mistake defeat for failureC. orders you to confuse defeat with failureD. warns you not to confuse defeat with failure14.Defeat is valuable ______.A. in that it provides the guide and encouragement to successB. because it forces you to face it without humiliationC. because it makes you failD. because of your own refusal to see in it the guide and encouragement to success15.What does the author advice one to do with the power which defeat gives?One should ______.A. make unfair use of itB. turn it to practical accountC. explore itD. explain itPassage 4Dorothea Dix left home at an early age of her own free will to live with her grandmother.At fourteen, Dorothea was teaching school at Worcester, Massachusetts. A short time after she had begun teaching, she established a school for young girls in her grandparents’ home. Stress was placed on moral character at Dorothea’s school, which she conducted until she was thirty-three.She was forced to give up teaching at her grandparents’ home, however, when she became ill.A few year of inactivity followed.In 1841 Dorothea began to teach again, accepting a Sunday school class in the East Cambridge, Massachusetts’ jail. Here, she first came upon insane people locked up together with criminals.In those days insane people were treated even worse than criminals. There were only a few asylums(疯人院) in the entire country. Therefore jails, poor houses, and houses of correction were used to confine the insane.Dorothea Dix made a careful investigation of the inhuman treatment of the insane. It was considered unfit for a woman to devote herself to such work at this time. But this did not stop Dorothea Dix in her efforts to provide proper medical care for the insane.Gradually, because of her investigations, conditions were improved. More than thirty mental6institutions were founded or reestablished in the United States because of her efforts. Dorothea also extended her investigations to England and to other parts of Europe.During the Civil War, Dorothea served as superintendent(主管) of women hospital nurses in the Union army. When the war was over, she returned to her work of improving conditions for insane people.16.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The Treatment of Mental Illness.B. The Life of a Young English WomanC. An American HumanitarianD. Social Problems of the Nineteenth Century17.The word “stress”in Line 3 could best be replaced by?A. EmphasisB. StrainC.

She worked in an insane asylum as a young woman.C. Her grandmother treated the mentally ill.D. She was asked to investigate the problem.19.Which of the following statements about Dorothea Dix is best supported by the passage?A. She spent time studying criminal law.B. Many people believed that her work was improper.C. She considered most criminals mentally unstable.D. Her grandmother was a teacher.20.The author implies that Dorothea Dix’s work with the insane was interrupted because of ______.A. an illnessB. her trip to EnglandC. the Civil WarD. her grandmother’s deathⅦ.Translate the following into English with words or phrases given in brackets, and then write your sentences on the Answer Sheet:(25%)1.他出生于两条河流交汇处的一个小镇。

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 1A person may have an idea about himself that will prevent him from doing good work. He may believe that he is not capable of accomplishing something even though there is no reason for it. A child may think he is stupid because he does not understand how to make use of the most of his mental abilities, or he may accept another person's mistaken estimate of his ability. People advanced in years may be handicapped by the mistaken belief that they are incapable of learning anything new because of their age.A person who believes that he is incapable will not make a real effort, because he feels that it would be futile. He won't go at a job (尽全力工作) with the confidence necessary for success, and he won't work hard, even though he may think he is doing so. He is, therefore, likely to fail, and the failure will strengthen his belief in his incompetence.Alfred Adler, a famous psychiatrist (精神病医生) , had an experience that illustrates this. When he was a small boy he got off to a poor start in arithmetic (算术) . His teacher got the idea that he had no ability in arithmetic, and told his parents what she thought so that they would not expect too much of him. In this way, they, too, developed the idea, "Isn't it too bad that Alfred can't do arithmetic?" He accepted their mistaken estimate of his ability, felt that it was useless to try, and ended up very poor at arithmetic, just as was expected.One day, however, he became very angry at the teacher and other students because they laughed when he said he knew how to do a problem, which none of the other students had been able to work out.Alfred succeeded in solving the problem. This gave him confidence. He rejected the idea that he couldn't do arithmetic and was determined to show others that he could. His anger and his newly found confidence stimulated him to be at arithmetic problems with a new vigor. He worked with interest, determination, and purpose. Before long he became extraordinarily good at arithmetic. He not only proved that he could do arithmetic, but he learned early in life from his own experience that if a person goes at a job with all his heart he may astonish himself as well as others with his ability.This experience made him realize that many people have more ability than they think they have. Lack of success is as often the result of lack of knowledge of how to apply one's ability, lack of confidence, and lack of determination as it is the result of lack of ability.41. The word "futile" in Paragraph 2 probably means________.A. unnecessaryB. uselessC. unimportantD. aimless42. Both Alfred's teacher and his parents thought Alfred________.A. had no confidence in himselfB. was lazy in studyC. had no interest in arithmeticD. was slow in arithmetic43. Why did Alfred become angry one day?A. Because he couldn't work out the arithmetic problem.B. Because the teacher didn't show him the arithmetic problem.C. Because he was challenged to solve a difficult arithmetic problem.D. Because no one believed that he could solve the arithmetic problem.44. According to the passage, a person is likely to fail if________.A. he doesn't work hardB. he is too old to learn anythingC. he doesn't have enough knowledgeD. he has accepted a mistaken belief of his ability45. What does Alfred Adler's story tell us?A. Our failures are often caused by our lack of ability.B. Arithmetic is actually not as hard as it seems to be.C. Some teachers expect too much from their students.D. Our self-judgement may have a negative effect on our success.Passage 2When the French Institute in Haiti (海地) asked me to speak on a subject of my own choice, I picked heroism. It's a subject I know well. I've read many books about it.I spoke of some well-known heroes. I suggested that I was something of a hero myself. Then I told how the hero, in the face of danger, discovers all the great, lasting values of life.When I left the platform, a gentleman came to me. "Great lecture," he said. "I'm Doctor Bonbon. I've been asked to make your stay here as pleasant as possible. Would you like to go hunting sharks with me? Y ou seem to enjoy facin danger."I accepted gladly. I saw myself struggling with a huge fish on my rod ...I was to speak again the next afternoon. So we agreed to start early in the morning."By the way," the doctor said as we set out, "you shou ld try out your coucteau.”"My... what?""Y our snorkel (潜水呼吸管) . Y ou need to breathe. I'll show you how to work the underwater gun too. What's the matter? Something wrong?"I had to sit down. I tried to tell myself it wasn't so. But there was no doubt about it. I wasn't to fish with a rod. I was to go right down into the water. I opened my mouth to protest ..."Y ou know," the doctor said, "I can't tell you how much we all enjoyed your lecture on courage."I said nothing. There are times when you have to protect your means of earning a living. I was known as a good speaker. If I had to be eaten by sharks to keep my reputation, I was ready. I put on my mask."Now put on the lead belt. It will get you down there instantly," the doctor said. "They'll go down with you." He pointed to the four big men on board.Bodyguards, I thought with relief."They're the beaters (轰赶猎物的人) ," the doctor said. "They'll go ahead and drive the sharks toward you. Then all you have to do is shoot." I didn't have the courage to object. They helped me over the side.At the bottom the first thing I saw was a big fish. I screamed.I can't quite remember what followed. All I know is that, contrary to what I had said in my lecture, in the face of danger the hero does not discover the great values of life. At last I opened my eyes again. The big fish was gone.I tried to retum to the surface. Then I saw a huge form above my head. I seized my gun. I closed my eyes and pressed the trigger.The gun was torn from me.In seconds I was at the surface. Luckily, the boat was near. I was on board in an instant."Where's your gun?" asked the doctor.I explained that I had hit a shark. The beast had torn the weapon from my hands.The four big men were climbing back into the boat now. One of them had my gun. He spoke to the doctor in his native language."It seems," the doctor said to me, "that you shot at the hull of the boat."He was trying to suggest that I had mistaken the boat passing over my head for a shark. The very idea!When I stepped to the platform that afternoon, Doctor Bonbon was sitting in the front row. But I didn't let his mockingstare disturb me. I was determined to rise once more to the level of my subject."Ladies and gentlemen," I began, "when the hero finds himself facing danger, the first thing he discovers ..."46. When he was told that he was to go down into the water, the writer had to sit down probably because ________ .A. he could not control his shaking legsB. he wanted to have a better look at the waterC. he wanted to get ready for the underwater adventureD. he could not help asking Doctor Bonbon some questions47. What happened under the water?A. He shot at a shark.B. He shot at the boat.C. He was attacked by a shark.D. His gun was torn away by a shark.48. In the sentence "But I didn't let his mocking stare disturb me." the word "mocking" could be replaced by ________ .A. amusingB. sneeringC. concerningD. encouraging49. The afternoon speech probably opened in this way, "When the hero finds himself facing danger, the first thing he discovers ________ ."A. is his true selfB. is the life valueC. is his wrong concept of heroismD. is the challenge from other people50. The story was told in the tone of ________ .A. seriousnessB. admirationC. humourD. criticismV.

and complete the statements or answer the questions with the correct choices.Write your right letters on the Answer Sheet:(20%)Passage 1“Family”is of course an elastic(弹性的) word.But when British people say that their society is based on family life,they are thinking of “family”in its narrow,peculiarly European sense of mother,father,and children living together alone in their own house as an economic and social unit.Thus,every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent family—hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life.For both the man and the woman,marriage means leaving one's parents and starting one's own life.The man's first duty will then be to his wife,and the wife's to her husband.He will be entirely responsible for her financial support,and she for the running of the new home.Their children will be their common responsibility and theirs alone.Neither the wife's parents nor the husband's,nor their brothers or sisters,aunts or uncles,have any right to interfere with them—they are their own masters.Readers of novels like Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girl's parents,that is,it was the parents' duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter,preferably a rich one,and by skillful encouragement—lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her.Until that time,the girl was protected and maintained in the parents' home and the financial relief(减轻) of getting rid of her could be seen intheir giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry(嫁妆).It is very different today.Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before their marriage.This has had two results.A girl chooses her own husband,and she gets no dowry.1.What does the author mean by “Family is of course an elastic word"?A.Different families have different ways of life.B.Different times produce different families.C.Different nations have different families.D.Different definitions could be given to the word.2.For an English family,the husband's duty is ______.A.financial while the wife's is running the homeB.defending the family which the wife's is running the homeC.supporting the family while the wife's is financialD.independent while the wife's is dependent3.Everything is decided in a family ______.A.with the help of their parentsB.by the coupleC.by brothers and sistersD.with the help of aunts and uncles4.What is true concerning the book Pride and Prejudice?A.It is the best book on marriage.B.It is a handbook of marriage.C.It provides a lot of information of former time wealthy familiesD.It gives quite some idea of English social life in the past.5.With regard to marriage in Britain,present-ay girls differ from former-ime girls in ______.A.the right familyB.more parental supportC.social positionD.choosing husbandsPassage 2The rat has many enemies and its greatest enemy is man.Nevertheless,rats are survivors.Although man has carried on an endless war against them,rats have methodically and systematically colonized the world.In almost every country from the freezing cold of the Arctic regions to the blazing heat of the tropics,rats are to be found,growing,increasing and multiplying.Apart from their ability to adapt themselves to varying climatic conditions,rats possess another quality that gives them an advantage in extending their boundaries.More so than most other animals,including snakes and spiders,they cause fear.Why should this be so?Certainly they carry disease and man is slow to forget the Black Plague(黑死病)carried by rats,that killed more than one-hird of the earth's population in the fourteenth century.Also rats have been known to bite babi es in their cots,but the number of such attacks is very much exaggerated.One reads of the danger of being attacked by a cornered rat but they belong to fiction;rats do not go for your throat,as many would have us believe.Furthermore,it is difficult to believe that the rats' appearance can be a source of fear;the common black or brown rat can hardly be regarded as an ugly creature while its cousin, the acacia rat,is quite pretty and gentle.6.It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A.man is the rat's worst enemyB.man is no worse than many of the rat's enemyC.man's greatest enemy is ratD.rats have many enemies worse than man7.It can be concluded from the passage that ______.A.rats dislike heat but do not mind the coldB.rats prefer the heat to the coldC.rats dislike both the heat and the coldD.rats do not mind the heat or the cold8.Which of the following is true of the rats?A.They are more harmful than any other animal.B.They make people afraid.C.They are pretty and gentle.D.They frequently attack babies.9.According to the passage,which of the following statements is true?A.The number of rats is decreasing quickly.B.Rats usually go for your throat at night.C.Rats will disappear at last because they carry disease.D.Rats will survive because they can live anywhere.10.By which of the following could the “exaggerated"(sentence 5,paragraph 2) be best replaced?A.smaller than it really is.B.kept in secret.rger than it really is.D.the same as it is reported.Passage 3For years,the Tobacco Institute has tried unsuccessfully to refute the charge by health experts that cigarette smoking can be dangerous to your health.Now the institute has taken a new tack.In an advertising campaign last fall,the industry trade association paid no attention to health questions and emphasized that no smoking could be dangerous to local economy.“Tobacco means $1,193,000,000 to Virginia,"said one advertisement,“Virginia tobacco helps pave Virginia roads,build Virginia parks and support Virginia social programs.Tobacco means 90,000 Virginia jobs." The message was repeated with an appropriate dollar figures in six other tobacco states.The statistics are based on a study by the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School,which calculates that,overall,the U.S.tobacco industry generates $30 billion in tax revenue(税收) each year.\!If you look at the economic contribution tobacco makes to America," says Edward Horrigan,Jr.,Chairman of R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Co.,“there's no reason for us to be ashamed of the business we are in.”The American Cancer Society disagrees.While Virginia is collecting its $1.2 billion in tobacco revenue this year,the Society said,2,900 of its citizens will be victims of lung cancer.Thousands more,the Society could add,will be victims of other diseases strongly associated with smoking.And the U.S. Surgeon General estimates the direct dollar coats of treating smokingrelated illnesses nationally at more than $13 billion a year—not to mention another $25 billion in lost wages and productivity.11.On what ground did the Tobacco Institute dispute with health experts?A.The Tobacco Institute was unwilling to pay more tax.B.The Tobacco Institute argued that much of the government's revenue comes from tobacco tax.C.The Tobacco Institute argued that cigarette smoking can be dangerous to your health.D.The Tobacco Institute argued that cigarette smoking can't be dangerous to your health.12.“Tobacco means $1,193,000,000 to Virginia,"—that is to say:______.A.Virginia will produce $1,193,000,000 tobacco.B.Tobacco is worth $1,193,000,000 in Virginia.C.Virginia will collect $1,193,000,000 in tobacco revenue.D.There is a heavy tax on tobacco in Virginia.13.Which organization pays attention to the health warning?A.The Industry Trade AssociationB.The Tobacco InstituteC.R.J.Reynolds Tobacco Co..D.The American Cancer Society14.The ernment's annual tobacco revenue is ______.A.$22 billionB.$30 billionC.$1,293,000,000D.$1.2 billion15.Why does Edward Horrigan,Jr.say,“there's no reason for us to be ashamed of the business we arein"?A.Because he thinks that tobacco does much damage to the American economy.B.Because he thinks that tobacco is not harmful to people's health.C.Because he thinks that tobacco makes a great contribution to American economy.D.Because he thinks that tobacco can be dangerous to the American people.Passage 4One night,a little before nine o'clock,Dr.Van Eyck answered his telephone.He heard a voice:“This is Dr.Haydon at the hospital in Glens Falls.We have a very sick boy here in our hospital.He has just been brought in with a bullet in his brain.He is very weak and may not live.We should operate at once,but I'm not a surgeon,you know."“I'm 60 miles from Glens Falls,"said Dr.Van Eyck,“Have you called Dr.Mercer?He lives in Glens Falls."“He's out of town,"said Dr.Haydon,“I'm calling you because the boy comes from your city.He was visiting here and shot himself while playing with a gun."“You say the boy is from Albany?"asked Dr.Van Eyck,“What is his name?"“Arthur Cunningham."“I don't think I know him.But I'll get there as soon as I can.It's snowing here,but I think I can get there before 12 o'clock."A few minutes later,the surgeon's car had to stop for a red light at the edge of town.A man in an old black coat opened the door of the car and got in.“Drive on,"he said,“I've got a gun."“I'm a doctor,"said Van Eyck,“I'm on my way to the hospital to operate on a very sick."“Don't talk,"said the man in the black coat,“Just drive."A mile out of town he ordered the doctor to stop the car and get out.Then the man drove away,apparently in a great hurry.A half hour later Dr.Van Eyck found a telephone and called a taxi.It was after two o'clock in the morning when the surgeon arrived at the hospital in Glens Falls.Dr.Haydon was waiting for him.“I did my best,"said Van Eyck,“but I was stopped on the road and my car."“It was good of you to try," said Dr.Haydon,“The boy died an hour ago."The two doctors walked by the door of the hospital waiting room.There sat the man in the old black coat with his head in his hands.“Mr.Cunningham," said Dr.Haydon to the man,“this is Dr.Van Eyck.He is a surgeon who came all the way from Albany to try to save your boy."16.Why did Dr.Haydon ask Dr.Van Eyck to come to Glens Falls?A.The boy wished to see a familiar face.B.He needed an assistant.C.The boy needed the help of a surgeon.D.The boy lived in the same city as Dr.Van Eyck.17.Why did the boy have to go to a hospital?A.He wounded himself while toying with a gun.B.He had a heart attack.C.He had driven a car too fast.D.He had shot himself with a gun in an attempt to commit suicide.18.What did Dr.Van Eyck do after his car was taken?A.He telephoned Dr.Haydon.B.He walked to the hospital.C.He got in touch with Mr.Cunningham.D.He called a taxi.19.What has happened to the boy before Dr.Van Eyck got to the hospital?A.He had left the hospital.B.He had got better.C.He had died.D.He had got worse.20.Who had taken the doctor's car?A.A taxi driver.B.The boy's father.C.Another doctor.D.A robber they didn't know.Ⅶ.Translate the following into English with words or phrases given in brackets,and then write your
