Passage One

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

Some years ago the captain of a ship was very interested in medicine. He always took medicine books to sea and liked to talk about different diseases.

One day a lazy sailor on his ship pretended to be ill. He lay on his bunk（铺）and groaned as if he were very sick. The captain came to see him and was very pleased to have a patient to look after. He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work. Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest. Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told the “sick” man to have a rest.

The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do. The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking. At last the mate（船长副手） decided to cure the “sick” men. He mixed up some soap, soot（烟灰）, glue（胶水） and other unpleasant things. Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick” men. When they tasted the medicine, they really did feel ill. It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of his bunk, ran up on deck and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.

The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour, night and day. This soon cured them. They both said they felt better and wanted to start work again. The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.

Passage Two

Questions 6 to l0 are based on the following passage:

When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was so difficult to separate from the ores (矿石) in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum became practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and pans.

Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By mixing it with other metals, scientist have been able to produce a variety of alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.

Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engines of automobiles, in the hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge “airbus”planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them. Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.

Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite (铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.

6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refining

process with the aid of ______.

A. wind power

B. solar energy

C. hydraulic power

D. electricity

7. Aluminum is ______.

A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different forms

B. heavyweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms

C. lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms

D. lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to become

rusty

8. Which of the following is not true?

A. Aluminum is widely used in transportation.

B. Aluminum is also used in many parts of airplanes.

C. Aluminum is being used extensively in the building industry.

D. Aluminum is not used in its pure form.

9. Aluminum is found on earth mostly in the form of ______.

A. pure metal

B. bauxite

C. gold

D. liquid

10. What is the passage talking about?

A. The features of aluminum and its functions.

B. The process of aluminum.

C. The discovery of aluminum.

D. The promising future of aluminum.

Passage Three

Questions 11 to l5 are based on the following passage:

One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night.

Advertising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that if confers

(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.

Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for – how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.

11. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modern

advertising?

A. Indifferent.

B. Shocked.

C. Disapproving.

D. Approving.

12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designs

a product?

A. Stress factors.

B. Man-hours.

C. Machine tolerances.

D. Customer-appeal

13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a product

customer-appeal are ______.

A. customers

B. designers

C. advertisers

D. manufacturers

14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, a

manufacturer will choose to ______.

A. lower the production cost

B. hire a better designer

C. improve its quality

D. alter its image

15. The best title for the passage might be ______.

A. Advertising Since the War

B. Advertising and Manufacturers

C. Advertising – England’s Biggest Industry

D. Advertising and Purchasers

Passage Four

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:

All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we do not know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to go about getting it. Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard (调车场). All of the switches (转辙器) are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we cannot. There is no ambiguity if we can see the

setting of a switch; we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events.

When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our “track” many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will be followed.

16. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the distant future

of the universe because we ______.

A. have too many conflicting theories

B. do not have enough funding to continue our research

C. are not sure how the universe is put together

D. have focused our investigations on the moon and planets

17. What does the author see as the function of the universe’s unseen “switches”?

A. They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.

B. They enable us to alter the course of the universe.

C. They give us information about the lunar surface.

D. They determine which course the universe will take in the future.

18. In the second paragraph, the word “track” could best be replaced by which of

the following?

A. Band

B. Rails

C. Path

D. Sequence

19. For whom is the author probably writing this passage?

A. Train engineers.

B. General audiences.

C. Professors of statistics.

D. Young children.

20. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?

A. A statement illustrated by an analogy(类比).

B. A hypothesis supported by documentation (引用文献).

C. A comparison of two contrasting theories.

D. A critical analysis of a common assumption.
