My name is Kenny. I’m 23, and I went with ILP to China, Russia and Ukraine.
I am Jesherry Jay. I’m 23 years old. I’ve been to Ukraine and Mexico. And I love this because it’s a really good opportunity to get out of the country to experience new cultures, and most of all because I got to teach the kids. And I love it. This is my favorite part ...
Lisa Ginsburg volunteered often during her time at University of Southern California, which inspired her to spend two weeks working for Volunteers for Peace (vfp@) in Bangladesh.
ILP
ILP teaches as many schools across the world, including Mexico, Russia, Ukraine and mainland China.
2. Would you like to work as a volunteer and teach Chinese all over the world? Why (or why not)?
Warming Up
So, just the ability that I have to speak English, and the desire to be with kids qualified me.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Pronouncing a language is a skill. Every normal person is expert in the skill of pronouncing his own language; but few people are even moderately proficient in pronouncing foreign languages. Now there are many reasons for this, some obvious, some perhaps not so obvious. But I suggest that the fundamental reason why people in general do not speak foreign languages much better than they do is that they fail to grasp the true nature of the problem of learning to pronounce, and consequently never set about tackling it in the right way. Far too many people fail to realize that pronouncing a foreign language is a skill —one that needs careful training of a special kind, and one that cannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of itself. I think even teachers of language, while recognizing the importance of good accent, tend to neglect, in their practical teaching, the branch of study concerned with speaking the language. So the first point I want to make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher should be prepared to devote some of the lesson time to this, and his whole attitude to the subject should get the student to feel that there is a matter worthy of receiving his close attention. So, there should be occasions when other aspects of English, such as grammar or spelling, are allowed for the moment to take second place.Apart from the question of the time given to pronunciation, there are two other requirements for the teacher: the first, knowledge; the second, technique.It is important that the teacher should be in possession of the necessary information. This can generally be obtained from books. It is possible to get from books some ideas of the mechanics of speech, and of what we call general phonetic theory. It is also possible in this way to get a clear mental picture of the relationship between the sounds of different languages, between the speech habits of English people and those, say, of your students. Unless the teacher has such a picture, any comments he makes on his students' pronunciation are unlikely to be of much use, and lesson time spent on pronunciation may well be time wasted.31.What does the author actually say about pronouncing foreign languages?A)There aren't many people who are even fairly good at it.B)Only a few people are really proficient.C)No one is really an expert in the skill.D)There are even some people who are moderately proficient.正确答案： C32.The author argues that going about the problem of pronunciation in the wrong way is __________ .A)an obvious cause of not grasping the problem correctlyB) a consequence of not grasping the problem correctlyC) a fundamental consequence of not speaking wellD)not an obvious cause of speaking poorly正确答案： C33.The best way of learning to speak a foreign language, the author suggests, is byA)picking it up naturally as a childB)learning from a native speakerC)undertaking systematic workD)not concentrating on pronunciation much正确答案： C 34.The value the student puts on correct speech habits depends on _______A)how closely he attends to the matterB)whether it is English that is being taughtC)his teacher's approach to pronunciationD)the importance normally given to grammar and spelling 正确答案： C35.How might the teacher find himself wasting lesson time?A)By making ill-informed comments upon pronunciation.B）By spending lesson time on pronunciation.C）By not using books on phonetics in the classroom.D）By not giving students a clear mental picture of the differences betweensounds.正确答案： DPassage Two Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.In the world of entertainment, TV talk shows have undoubtedly flooded every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one varies in style and format. But no two shows are more profoundly opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows. Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "trash talk （废话）". The topics on his show are as shocking as shocking can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show themes of love, sex, cheating, guilt, hate, conflict and morality to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is a display and exploitation of society's moral catastrophes （灾难）, yet people are willing to eat up the intriguing predicaments （困境） of other people's lives. Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its extreme, but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individual's quality of life. Topics range from teaching your children responsibility, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech that sums up the entire moral of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main target audience are middle-class Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and stability to deal with life's tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of an association with the young adults of society. These are 18- to 21-year-olds whose main troubles in life involve love, relationship, sex, money and peers. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned underneath the show's exploitation.While the two shows are as different as night and day, both have ruled the talk show circuit for many years now. Each one caters to a different audience while both have a strong following from large groups of fans. Ironically, both could also be considered pioneers in the talk show world.36.Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are _________ .A)more family-orientedB)unusually popularC)more profoundD)relatively formal正确答案： C37.Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear distasteful, the audience ___________ .A)remain fascinated by themB)are ready to face up to themC)remain indifferent to themD)are willing to get involved in them正确答案： A38.Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A) A new type of robot.B)Racist hatred.C)Family budget planning.D)Street violence.正确答案： C39.Despite their differences, the two talk shows are both ____ .A)ironicalB)sensitiveC)instructiveD)cynical正确答案： B40.We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows __________ .A)have monopolized the talk show circuitB)exploit the weaknesses in human natureC)appear at different times of the dayD)are targeted at different audiences正确答案： DPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) andD). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In the 1950s, the pioneers of artificial intelligence (AI) predicted that, by the end of this century, computers would be conversing with us at work and robots would be performing our housework. But as useful as computers are, they're nowhereclose to achieving anything remotely resembling these early aspirations for humanlike behavior. Never mind something as complex as conversation: the most powerful computers struggleto reliably recognize the shape of an object, the most elementary of tasks for a ten-month-old kid.The problem, the scientists say, is that AI has beentrying to separate the highest, most abstract levels of thought, like language and mathematics, and to duplicate them with logical, step-by-step programs. A new movement in AI, on the other hand, takes a closer look at the more roundabout way in which nature came up with intelligence. Many of these researchers study evolution and natural adaptation instead of formal logic and conventional computer programs. The results of these early efforts are as promising as they are peculiar, and the new nature-based AI movement is slowly but surely moving to the forefront of the field.Imitating the brain's neural network is a huge step in the right direction, says computer scientist and biophysicistMichael Conrad, but it still misses an important aspect ofnatural intelligence. "People tend to treat the brain as if it were made up of color-coded transistors," he explains. "But it's not simply a clever network of switches. There are lots of important things going on inside the brain cells themselves."Right now, the notion that conventional computers andsoftware are fundamentally incapable of matching the processes that take place in the brain remains controversial. But if it proves true, then the efforts of Conrad and his fellow AIrebels could turn out to be the only game in town.31.The author says that the powerful computers of today ____ . A) are capable of reliably recognizing the shape of an objectB) are close to exhibiting humanlikebehaviorC) are not very different in theirperformance from those of the 1950'sD) still cannot communicate with people in a human language正确答案： D32.The new trend in artificial intelligence research stems from _____ . A) the shift of the focus of study on the recognition of the shapes of objectsB) the belief that human intelligence cannot be duplicated with logical, step-by-step programsC) the aspirations of scientists to duplicate theintelligence of a ten-month-old childD) the efforts made by scientists in the study of thesimilarities between transistors and brain cells正确答案： B33.Conrad and his group of AI researchers have been making enormous efforts to_____ . A) find a roundabout way to design powerful computers B) build a computer using a clever network of switchesC) find out how intelligence develops in natureD) separate the highest and most abstract levels ofthought 正确答案： C34.What's the author's opinion about the new AI movement A) It has created a sensation among artificial intelligence researchers. B) It's a breakthrough in duplicating human thoughtprocesses.C) It's more like a peculiar game rather than a realscientific effort.D) It may prove to be in the right direction thoughnobody is sure of its future prospects.正确答案： D35.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase “the only game in town” (in A) The only approach to building an artificially intelligent computer.B) The only way for them to win a prize in artificialintelligence research.C) The only area worth studying in computer science.D) The only game they would like to play in town.正确答案： APassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.It is a devastating prospect. Terrorists electronically break into the computers that control the water supply of a large American city, open and close valves to contaminate the water with untreated sewage or toxic chemicals, and then release it in a devastating flood. As the emergency services struggle to respond, the terrorists strike again, shutting down the telephone network and electrical power grid with just a few mouse clicks. Businesses are paralysed, hospitals are overwhelmed and roads are gridlocked as people try to flee.This kind of scenario is invoked by doom-mongers whoinsist that stepping up physical security since the September 11th attacks is not enough. Road-blocks and soldiers around power stations cannot prevent digital terrorism. "Until we secure our cyber-infrastructure, a few keystrokes and an Internet connection is all one needs to disable the economy andendanger lives," Lamar Smith, a Texas congressman, told a judiciary committee in February.It is true that utility companies and other operators of critical infrastructure are increasingly connected to the Internet. But just because an electricity company's customers can pay their bills online, it does not necessarily follow that the company's critical control systems are vulnerable to attack. Control systems are usually kept entirely separate from other systems, for good reason. They tend to be obscure, old-fashioned systems that are incompatible with Internettechnology anyhow.On September 18th Richard Clarke, America's cyber-security tsar, unveiled his long-awaited blueprint for securing critical infrastructure from digital attacks. It was a bit of a damp squib, making no firm recommendations and proposing no new regulation or legislation. But its lily-livered approach might, in fact, be the right one. When a risk has been overstated, inaction may be the best policy.It is difficult to avoid comparisons with the "millennium bug" and the predictions of widespread computer chaos arising from the change of date to the year 2000. Then, as now, thealarm was sounded by technology vendors and consultants, who stood to gain from scare-mongering. But Ross Anderson, a computer scientist at Cambridge University, prefers to draw an analogy with the environmental lobby.36.We learn from the first paragraph that ____________. A) terrorists could plunge a large American city into chaos through electronic attackB) American people have no experience in dealingwith terrorists C) the computer systems of utility companies arerather vulnerableD) the response of emergency services is far fromsatisfactory正确答案： A37.Speaking of the doom-mongers, the author implies that_____________. A) their worries are quite reasonable B) their warnings should be taken seriously C) they exaggerate the threat utilitycompanies are facingD) they are familiar with the way terroristsstrike正确答案： C38.In the view of Gartner consultant, ___________. A) terrorists may launch another “Pearl Harbor” attack B) terrorists have ample capital and time to prepare a stunning strikeC) it is very costly and time-consuming to attackcritical infrastructureD) it is unlikely that terrorists would resort toelectronic means to attack critical infrastructure正确答案： D39."Lily-livered approach" (in Para. 4) probably means an approach characterized by________.

A) the computer industry suffered heavy loss due to the "millennium bug"B) doom-mongers care more about their owninterests than national securityC) computer scientists have better judgment than doom-mongersD) environmentalists are criticized for theirefforts of protecting environment正确答案： BPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in thispart.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.In the world of entertainment, TV talk shows have undoubtedly flooded every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one varies in style and format. But no two shows are more profoundly opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows. Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "trash talk (废话)". The topics on his show are as shocking as shocking can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show themes of love, sex, cheating, guilt, hate, conflict and morality to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is a display and exploitation of society's moral catastrophes (灾难), yet people are willing to eat up the intriguing predicaments (困境) of other people's lives. Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its extreme, but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individual's quality of life. Topics range from teaching your children responsibility, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors.Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech that sums up the entire moral of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable.Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main target audience are middle-class Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and stability to deal with life's tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of an association with the young adults of society. These are 18- to 21-year-olds whose main troubles in life involve love, relationship, sex, money and peers. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned underneath the show's exploitation.While the two shows are as different as night and day, both have ruled the talk show circuit for many years now. Each one caters to a different audience while both have a strong following from large groups of fans. Ironically, both could also be considered pioneers in the talk show world.31.Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are __________.A) more family-orientedB) unusually popularC) more profoundD) relatively formal正确答案：C32.Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear distasteful, the audience __________.A) remain fascinated by themB) are ready to face up to themC) remain indifferent to themD) are willing to get involved in them正确答案：A33.Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?A) A new type of robot.B) Racist hatred.C) Family budget planning.D) Street violence.正确答案：C34.Despite their differences, the two talk shows are both _________.A) ironicalB) sensitiveC) instructiveD) cynical正确答案：B35.We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows ____________.A) have monopolized the talk show circuitB) exploit the weaknesses in human natureC) appear at different times of the dayD) are targeted at different audiences正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Helen Admas Keller (1880 —1968), is an outstanding example of a person who conquered physical disabilities. A serious illness, which her doctor called "acute congestion of the stomach and brain," destroyed her sight and hearing at the age of about one. For almost five years, she grew up, as she later said, "wild and unruly, giggling and chuckling to express pleasure; kicking, scratching, uttering the choked screams of the deaf-mute to indicate the opposite." Then Helen's father took her to Alexander Graham Bell. He advised Keller to write to the Perkins Institution for the Blind in Boston. Shortly before the child was 7, Anne Sullivan arrived from Boston to teach her, who remained with Helen Keller until her death. Then Mary Agnes "Polly" Thomson, who had been Keller's secretary, took Sullivan's place.First she learned to write. Sullivan was able to make contact with the girl's mind through the sense of touch. Gradually, the child was able to connect words with objects. Once she understood, her progress was rapid. Then she learned to speak. Until she was 10 years old, Keller could talk only with the sign language of the deaf-mute. She decided she would learn to speak and took lessons from a teacher of the deaf. By the time she was 16, she could communicate well enough to go to preparatory school and to college. Finally she helped others. After college, Keller became concerned with the conditions of the blind and the deaf-blind. She became active on the staffs of the American Foundation for the blind and of the American Foundation for overseas Blind. In her later years, she became especially interested in bettering the conditions for the blind in developing and war-ravaged countries. An enthusiastic and untiring traveler, she lectured on their behalf in more than 25 countries on every continent except Antarctica.Keller received many awards of great distinction. They include the Chevalier's ribbon of the French Legion of Honor, the Alumni Achievement Award of Radcliffe College, and decorations from many governments.36.What caused Helen Keller's losing sight and hearing?A) A car accident.B) A serious illness.C) It was caused when Helen Keller's mother was pregnant.D) It just happened, no one knew the reason.正确答案：B37.For several years before Sullivan came, ______.A) Helen had to express herself in simple wordsB) Helen had been a wild and unruly little girlC) no one took care of Helen's studyD) Helen had been unable to make any sound正确答案：B38.At the age of ten, Helen _______.A) had learned to speak a little bitB) could communicate well enoughC) began to go to schoolD) decide to learn to speak正确答案：D39.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A) Helen graduated from college when she was only 20.B) Helen devoted herself to the welfare of the blind and the deaf-blind.C) Helen called on wealthy people to give financial support to the disabled.D) Helen traveled around the world to give lectures.正确答案：C40.What can be inferred from the passage?A) Helen Keller owed her success to her strong character.B) Helen Keller has become a symbol of courage for many people.C) Helen Keller was an active worker for the poor people.D) The disabled will remember Helen Keller forever.正确答案：BPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

In a special school for the hearing-impaired, he learned sign language and got to mix with other disabled children. However, the sight of all the disabled children communicating with one another upset his mother. She wanted him to lead a normal life. So after speaking to an advisor, she sent him to private classes where he learned to read lips and pronounce words.Later on, Adrian's parents decided to send him to a regular school. But the headmaster tried to prevent them from doing so; saying regular school couldn't take care of special needs students. His parents were determined to take the risk and push him hard to go through his work everyday because they wanted to prove that, given the opportunity, he could do anything. Adrian made the grade and got accepted. It was a big challenge. The pace was faster so he had to sit at the front of the class and really pay attention to the teacher, which wasn't always easy. But he stuck to it and did a lot of extra work after school.The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off. Adrian graduated with good grades and got into a top high school. He also achieved a lot in life outside school. He developed a love for the outdoors and went to Nepal to climb mountains. He even entered the World Yacht Race 05/06 – being the first hearing-impaired Asian to do so.But none of these achievements would have been possible without one of the most important lessons from his mother. "If you believe in yourself and work hard, you can achieve great results." She often said.31.How did Adrian communicate with other children and teacher in regular school?A) By speaking.B) By using sign language.C) By learning to read lips and pronounce words.D) By making loud noises.正确答案：C32.Adrian's parents decided to send him to a regular school because ____.A) they wanted to prove the headmaster wrongB) they wanted him to lead a normal lifeC) he wouldn't mix with other disabled childrenD) he wasn't taken good care of in the special school正确答案：B33.The sentence "The efforts made by Adrian and his parents paid off."

More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was unsafe in the densely populated area, which would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would collapse.Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. "This project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be dealt with according to the law," he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over the state to handle the disturbances.The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that read "No Nukes is Good Nukes," "Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power," and "Stop Private Profits from Public Peril." They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired by police failed to dislodge the protestors who had come prepared with their own gas masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to walk away under their own power.

I wasn't quite sure what my journey would involve, but I was 26 who would be at the other end. I steeled myself to travel the road that would lead me to a better understanding of who I was and of what I wanted out of life. I shared my mixed feelings with my husband.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.When I was in 7th grade, I had a lot of trouble reading. My mother used to sit by my side, and explain each paragraph of each school reading assignment to me because I didn't understand what I was reading. She would have to read each paragraph to me, and then after each paragraph, she summarized what we just read.In class, I tried to hide the fact that I couldn't read. My teachers gave us the last 10 minutes of class to start our reading homework, and I would sit there for the last ten minutes of class staring at the page, pretending I was reading it — I remember a terrible feeling of not wanting to get in trouble for not being able to comprehend. I had to wait until I got home so my mother could explain it to me. How did I ever get into Cornell University? By eighth grade I started understanding a little on my own, but I was reading at an incredibly slow rate. In eighth grade, I got hold of all the speed reading books I could get my hands on. I read them all very slowly at the time. I even went out and took a course on speed reading. Then I developed my own system which was easier and produced quicker results. I started practicing these techniques every day, and as I started to read faster, my understanding increased. I found that I stopped daydreaming and thinking about other things while I was reading, and started getting the larger meaning. I was reading faster and comprehending better.I found that when you read slowly, word by word, you get lost in the words, lose the bigger picture, and your comprehension drops. When you read faster, your concentration actually increases and your comprehension goes up because instead of getting lost in the words, you see the overall picture.31.The main difficulty the writer had in reading in her 7th grade was that _____.A) she often forgot her school reading assignmentsB) she had difficulty reading with comprehensionC) she had a poor vocabulary and very bad grammarD) she always looked elsewhere when asked to read正确答案：B32.The writer would pretend to be reading in the last 10 minutes of class because______.A) she was afraid of being found outB) the reading class was terribleC) she had to do what others were doingD) her mother told her to do so正确答案：A33.The writer's reading ability improved a great deal mainly because _____.A) she entered Cornell UniversityB) she took a course on speed readingC) her mother managed to help her outD) she developed her own way of reading正确答案：D34.From her own experience, the writer found that ________.A) one's comprehension drops if one reads too slowlyB) in order to understand better, one has to read slowlyC) one tends to neglect the detailed information if one reads fastD) many people read fast in order to save time正确答案：A35.After reading the passage, we can conclude that the writer wrote the passage in order to_______.A) convince the readers of the importance of higher educationB) tell a story in honor of her motherC) give a detailed description of different reading skillsD) illustrate the necessity of fast reading正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.More and more Americans are finding that they must learn to copewith chronic illness. Granted, for some of the 125 million people with chronic illnesses, the problems are minor, but for 60 million others have multiple chronic conditions that can be serious or life-threatening.The toll of so much illness is enormous — $510 billion annually. But chronic illness exacts an emotional toll as well, and it is in that realm that researchers are increasingly looking to the hard-won wisdom of patients to find ways to help others cope with diseases that might once have engulfed them in shame or despair.One view is that people with chronic illnesses should be neither pitied nor idealized, either by others or by themselves. Pity can come across as condescending. Turning someone into a hero may not help. Other mental health specialists, such as Ann Webster, take a somewhat different view. Some people with chronic illnesses do want to be seen as normal, she said, but others do seem truly heroic and may appreciate some recognition of that. "A lot of people grow and change in profound ways", Webster said. Some long-term survivors in her AIDS group "have changed and grown and turned into some of the most evolved and spiritual people, and they never were that way before." "It's really hard having a chronic illness, and knowing it is changing your life and your future," she said. Some people can throw their energies into beating their disease and returning to normal activities. But others can't beat the illness, no matter how hard they try. Many people can do this on their own, she said, but many also find it helpful to join support groups or see individual counselors. Ultimately, the task is to make meaning in the face of disability or imminent（即将发生的，逼近的）death, to reassess what's still important and what you can still do, when your old goals and dreams can no longer be met.36.Ann Webster is different from other people in that she thinks ______.A) people with chronic diseases may feel encouraged when their heroic deeds are recognizedB) people with chronic illnesses wish to be treated in the same way as a normal personC) idealizing people with chronic illnesses may put them under great mental pressureD) sympathizing people with chronic illnesses may make them feel inferior to others正确答案：A37.Which of the following is NOT TRUE of the people in Webster's group?A) Many people turn to support groups for help.B) Most of them realize they have to fight on their own.C) Some of them return to normal life by fighting hard.D) Some of them fail no matter how hard they try.正确答案：B38.We may infer from the passage that the author most probably agrees to the opinion that _____.A) people should stick to their dreams and goals no matter what happensB) people should keep fighting against diseases and turn themselves into heroesC) people should make their life meaningful by resetting goals when necessaryD) people should never give up fighting so long as there is still hope正确答案：C39.This passage is focused on ______.A) the health condition of American peopleB) the prevention of chronic illnessesC) the serious cases of chronic illnessesD) the spiritual aspect of people with chronic illnesses正确答案： D40.Which of the following statements is TRUE as described in the passage?A) The treatment for chronic illnesses mainly depends on spiritual help.B) People with chronic diseases can conquer their illness if they join support groups.C) People's overcoming chronic illnesses demands enormous cost.D) With people's utmost efforts, any chronic illness can be cured now.正确答案：CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Imagine a mass of floating waste is two times the size of the state of Texas. Texas has a land area of more than 678,000 square kilometers. So it might be difficult to imagine anything twice as big.All together, this mass of waste flowing in the North Pacific Ocean is known as the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch. It weighs about 3,500,000 tons.The eastern part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch is about l,600 kilometers west of California. The western part is west of the Hawaiian Islands and east of Japan. The area has been described as a kind of oceanic desert，with light winds and slow moving water currents. The water moves so slowly that garbage from all over the world collects there.In recent years, there have been growing concerns about the floating garbage and its effect on sea creatures and human health. Scientists say thousands of animals get trapped in the floating waste, resulting in death or injury. Even more die from a lack of food or water after swallowing pieces of plastic.The floating garbage can also have harmful effects on people. There is an increased threat of infection of disease from polluted waste, and from eating fish that swallowed waste. Divers can also get trapped in the plastic.Its existence first gained public attention in l997. That was when racing boat captain and oceanographer Charles Moore and his crew sailed into the garbage while returning from a racing event. Five years earlier, another oceanographer learned of the trash after a shipment of rubber ducks got lost at sea. Many of those toys are now part of the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch.In August, 2009, a team from the University of California, San Diego became the latest group to travel to it. They were shocked by the amount of waste they saw. They gathered hundreds of sea creatures and water samples to measure the garbage patch's effect on ocean environment.31.How did the writer introduce the topic of the passage?A) By giving an example.B) By listing the facts.C) By telling a story.D) By giving a comparison.正确答案：D32.What do we know about the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?A) It is made up of various kinds of plastic products.B) It is a solid mass of floating waste materials.C) It lies l60,000 kilometers east of California.D) It is described as a kind of oceanic desert.正确答案：A33.Why do people pay attention to the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch?A) Because it may prevent the flow of ocean water.B) Because the polluted plastic articles will move up the food chain.C) Because it may be from an island in the pacific.D) Because ships may be trapped in the floating waste.正确答案：B34.Which column can you find the passage on a newspaper?A) Sports and entertainment.B) Media and culture.C) Environment and society.D) Science and technology.正确答案：C35.The purpose of writing this passage is to____________.A) warn people of the danger to travel in the pacificB) analyze what caused the waste patch in the pacificC) give advice on how to recycle waste in the oceanD) introduce the Great Pacific Ocean Garbage Patch正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.More and more, the operations of our business, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap substantial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.It's easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing, but even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers. Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it's disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck.For example, a certain keypunch operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transactions. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off the company that was being robbed. Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out their computer had been misused.They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled the most confidential records right under the noses of the company's executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.36.It can be concluded from the passage that _______.A) it is still impossible to detect computer crimes todayB) computer crimes are one of most serious problems in the operation of the financial institutionsC) computer criminals can escape punishment because they can't be detectedD) people commit computer crimes at the request of their company正确答案：B37.It is implied in the third paragraph that _______.A) more computer crimes go undetected than are discoveredB) the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problemC) most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimesD) most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luck正确答案：A38.Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?A) A strict law against computer crimes must be enforced.B) Companies need to impose restrictions on confidential information.C) Companies will guard against computer crimes to protect their reputation.D) Companies usually hesitate to uncover computer crimes.正确答案：D39.The underlying reason for the computer criminals to get recommendations he needs is that _______.A) they have skills formidably difficult for others to masterB) the employers are afraid that they would take avenge if punishedC) the employers are much afraid of bringing the public into disbelief towards them through the criminals' words in open courtD) those who commit crimes do not mean bad正确答案：C40.What may happen to computer criminals once they are caught?A) With bad reputation they can hardly find another job.B) They will be denied access to confidential records.C) They may walk away and easily find another job.D) They must leave the country or go to jail.正确答案：CPart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.
