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.Elizabeth's father died when she was nine. Her family was large, and very poor. She struggled for self esteem, but it was difficult when her clothes weren't as nice as the other kids and her new school was still unfamiliar.During a math lesson, Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard and was struggling to understand a concept. With every stroke of the chalk, she became more confused. She had suffered from chronic ear infections (感染), and had missed many days of her fifth grade year. When she finally got the courage to raise her little hand and ask Mr. Thompson how the problem was done, he became very angry. He marched her up in front of the class and told this insecure child that she was "incapable of learning and extremely stupid."This remark plagued (使…困扰) Elizabeth for years.Elizabeth drifted into marriage. After discovering her husband's long time infidelity (不忠), she found herself divorced with three young daughters. She moved back to her home state and tried to pick up the pieces she had left behind.Knowing that she would be the sole support of these children, and having no desire to remarry, Elizabeth started college. Like most good mothers, she wanted the best for her children. She didn't want to deprive them of their mother. She would rise early and stay up late to get every spare minute she could to study.When she received her first "A" she was confused. She thought there must be some mistake. This was Elizabeth, Elizabeth the stupid. When her good grades piled up, she realized for the first time that maybe Mr. Thompson was wrong. She graduated from Brigham Young University, and will soon be receiving her master's degree at California State University in San Bernardino.36.The reason why Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard was that ______.A) she had ear infections and could not hear very wellB) she was still overwhelmed by the death of her fatherC) too much homework had made her tired and sickD) what the teacher wrote was beyond her understanding正确答案：D37.Mr. Thompson can be best described as a teacher who was ________.A) dull and stupidB) impatient and cruelC) strict with his studentsD) incapable of making himself understood正确答案：B38.We can learn from the passage that Elizabeth started college because she ______.A) was not a very responsible motherB) needed to be able to support her childrenC) knew she could achieve great success in collegeD) wanted her children to have an educated mother正确答案：D39.Why was Elizabeth confused when she got her first "A"A) Because she believed that it was a mistake.B) Because she had not studied hard enough.C) Because she felt hurt by other people's comments.D) Because she did not trust her teacher.正确答案：A40.Elizabeth's case shows that _______.A) people can overcome a negative self-image through hard workB) a student can achieve great success even though he or she is stupidC) people who suffer a lot are more likely to work hard and succeed in the endD) poor children can also receive the best education and rise high in life正确答案：APart III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Does good teamwork require good relationships between team members? Below is an example that seems to 21 that myth.In 1998, the main striking partnership of Manchester United was Andy Cole and Teddy Sheringham. These two had primary 22 for scoring goals. To do so against good opposition required a great deal of cooperation between them.During a game at Bolton, an incident occurred that caused a complete 23 in their relationship. When Bolton scored, Sheringham 24 Cole for it, and Cole then refused to talk to him.The breakdown in relationship was never 25 , and reputedly they never spoke again.In the following season (1998-1999) Andy Cole and Teddy Sheringham continued as the main striking partnership, supported by other players. They continued to play gamesand 26 on the pitch, but off the field they didn't speak.During that season, Manchester United achieved a unique treble that no British club had ever achieved. They won:The Premiership LeagueThe FA CupThe European Cup (the biggest club football prize in Europe)Cole and Sheringham continued to play together during the next season as well, that is 1999-2000. During that time, with Cole and Sheringham as the main striking partnership, Manchester United set up two Premiership League records:They reached 50 goals in just 19 gamesThey scored a total of 97 goals in the seasonHere we have two people whose relationship was allegedly so bad that they hadn't spoken to each other for over a year. Yet, despite the off-field 27 between them, their cooperation on the field was excellent and they made a significant contribution to, arguably, ManchesterUnited's most successful season ever.This may be an 28 example, but it 29 the principle that personal liking, ora 30 relationship, are not essential for good teamwork. What matters is that the behaviorused (in this case, on the pitch) is one that leads to optimum performance.A) praised B) dispel C) cooperate D) friendlinessE) hostility F) harmonious G) extreme H) blamedI) resolved J) fight K) responsibility L) breakdownM) dismissed N) illustrates O) support21. ______________________正确答案：B学生答案：C得分：0分22. ______________________ 正确答案：K学生答案：A得分：0分23. ______________________ 正确答案：L学生答案：L得分：1分24. ______________________ 正确答案：H学生答案：H得分：1分25. ______________________ 正确答案：I学生答案：M得分：0分26. ______________________ 正确答案：C学生答案：K得分：0分27. ______________________ 正确答案：E学生答案：B得分：0分28. ______________________ 正确答案：G学生答案：G得分：1分29. ______________________ 正确答案：N学生答案：O得分：0分30. ______________________正确答案：F学生答案：D得分：0分Section BDirections: There are several passages in this section. 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.You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn't ensure career advancement. You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of engaging in office politics — a better job, a raise, praise — many people are still unable — or unwilling — to "play the game.""People assume that office politics involves some manipulative (工于心计的) behavior,"says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. "But politics derives from the word 'polite'. It can mean lobbying and forming associations. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your superior, and then expecting something in return."In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to pursue one's own self-interest in the workplace. In many cases, this involves some form of socializing within the office environment — not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well."The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis," says Neil P. Lewis, a management psychologist. "But if two or three candidates are up fora promotion, each of whom has reasonably similar ability, a manager is going to promote theperson he or she likes best. It's simple human nature."Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the concept of politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others associate politics with flattery (奉承), fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favors.Experts suggest altering this negative picture by recognizing the need for someself-promotion.31. Why are many people unwilling to "play the game" (underlined part in Para.2)?A) They believe that doing so is impractical.B) They feel that such behavior is unprincipled.C) They are not good at manipulating colleagues.D) They think the effort will get them nowhere.正确答案：B学生答案：D得分：0分32. To get promoted, one must not only be competent but _______.A) give his boss a good impressionB) honest and loyal to his companyC) get along well with his colleaguesD) avoid being too outstanding正确答案：A学生答案：B得分：0分33. "Office politics" (the underlined part in Para.4) is used in the passage to refer to _______.A) the code of behavior for company staffB) the political views and beliefs of office workersC) the interpersonal relationships within a companyD) the various qualities required for a successful career正确答案：C学生答案：B得分：0分34. The author considers office politics to be ______.A) unwelcome at the workplaceB) bad for interpersonal relationshipsC) indispensable to the development of company cultureD) an important factor for personal advancement正确答案：D学生答案：D得分：2分35. It is the author's view that ____.A) speaking up for oneself is part of human natureB) self-promotion does not necessarily mean flatteryC) hard work contributes very little to one's promotionD) many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery正确答案：B学生答案：D得分：0分Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.If you know exactly what you want, the best route to a job is to get specialized training. A recent survey shows that companies prefer the graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.That's especially true of booing fields that are challenging for workers. At Cornell's School of Hotel Administration, for example, bachelor's degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers with salaries ranging from the high teens to the low 20's and plenty of chances for rapid advancement. Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run, too much specialization doesn't pay off. Business, which has been flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval. The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially, but the impact of a degree washes out after five years. As further evidence of the erosion (销蚀) of corporate (公司的) faith in specialized degrees, Michigan State's Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices: although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management. "They want someone who isn't constrained (限制) by nuts and bolts to look at the big picture," says Scheetz.His words sound suspiciously like a formal statement that corporations approve of the liberal-arts graduates. Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have: writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptibility, and the ability to analyze and solve problems. David Birch claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree. "I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things," says Birch. Liberal-arts means an academically thorough and strict program that includes literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behavior — plus a computer course or two. With that under your belt, you can feel free to specialize. "A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace," says Scheetz.36. What kinds of people are in high demand on the job market?A) Students with a bachelor's degree in science.B) People with an MBA degree from top universities.C) People with formal schooling plus work experience.D) People with special training in engineering.正确答案：C学生答案：C得分：2分37. By saying "...but the impact of a degree washes out after five years" (underlined part inPara.3), the author means ________.A) most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundationB) an MBA degree does not help promote to managerial positionsC) MBA programs will not be as popular in five years' time as they are nowD) in five years people will forget about the degree the MBA graduates have got正确答案：B学生答案：C得分：0分38. According to Scheetz's statement (underlined in Para3), companies prefer ________.A) people who have a strategic mindB) people who are talented in fine artsC) people who are ambitious and aggressiveD) people who have received training in mechanics正确答案：A学生答案：C得分：0分39. David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because ________.A) they are more capable of handling changing situationsB) they can stick to established ways of solving problemsC) they are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fieldsD) they have attended special programs in management正确答案：A学生答案：A得分：2分40. Which of the following statements does the author support?A) Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.B) Formal schooling is less important than job training.C) On-the-job training is, in the long run, less costly.D) Generalists will outdo specialists in management.正确答案：D学生答案：C得分：0分Part III Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 minutes )Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Such an attitude would emphasize sharply the values of life. We should live each day with gentleness, vigor, and a keenness of appreciation which are often lost when time stretches before us in the constant panorama of more days and months and years to come. There are those who, of course, who would adopt the epicurean (享乐者) motto of "Eat, drink, and be merry," but most people would be chastened (磨练) by the certainty of impendent death. It has often been noted that those who live, or have lived, in the shadow of death bring a mellow sweetness to everything they do. Most of us, however, take life for granted.

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."

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.

You should decideon 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.Elizabeth's father died when she was nine. Her family was large, and very poor. She struggled for self esteem, but it was difficult when her clothes weren't as nice as the other kids and her new school was still unfamiliar.During a math lesson, Elizabeth stared at the chalkboard and was struggling to understand a concept. With every stroke of the chalk, she became more confused. She had suffered from chronic ear infections (感染), and had missed many days of her fifth grade year. When she finally got the courage to raise her little hand and ask Mr. Thompson how the problem was done, he became very angry. He marched her up in front of the class and told this insecure child that she was "incapable of learning and extremely stupid."This remark plagued (使…困扰) Elizabeth for years.Elizabeth drifted into marriage. After discovering her husband's long time infidelity (不忠), she found herself divorced with three young daughters. She moved back to her home state and tried to pick up the pieces she had left behind.Knowing that she would be the sole support of these children, and having no desire to remarry, Elizabeth started college. Like most good mothers, she wanted the best for her children. She didn't want to deprive them of their mother. She would rise early and stay up late to get every spare minute she could to study.When she received her first "A" she was confused. She thought there must be some mistake. This was Elizabeth, Elizabeth the stupid. When her good grades piled up, she realized for the first time that maybe Mr. Thompson was wrong.

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 school was out, I hurried to find my sister and get out of the schoolyard before seeing anybody in my class. But Barbara and her friends had beaten us to the playground entrance and they seemed to be waiting for us. Barbara said, "So now you're in the A class." She sounded impressed. "What's the A class?" I asked. Everybody made superior yet faintly envious giggling sounds. "Well, why did you think the teacher moved you to the front of the room, dopey? Didn't you know you were in the C class before, way in the back of the room?" Of course I hadn't known. The Wenatchee fifth grade was bigger than my whole school which had been in North Dakota, and the idea of subdivisions within a grade had never occurred to me. The subdividing for the first marking period had been done before I came to the school, and l had never, in the six weeks when I'd been there, talked to anyone long enough to find out about the A, B, and C classes. I still could not understand why that had made such a difference to Barbara and her friends. I didn’t yet know that it was shameful and dirty to be a transient laborer and ridiculous to be from North Dakota. I thought living in a tent was more fun than living in a house. I didn't know that we were gypsies, really (how that thought would have excited me then! ). It didn't occur to me that we were all looked upon as one more of the untrustworthy natural phenomena, drifting here and there like mists or winds, I didn't know that I was the only child who had camped on the Baumann's land ever to get out of the C class. I only knew that for two happy days I walked to school with Barbara and her friends, played hopscotch and jumped rope with them at class intervals, and was even invited into the house for some ginger ale — a strange drink I had never tasted before.31.The tone of this passage as a whole is __________.A) reflectiveB) enthusiasticC) impersonalD) defensive正确答案：A32.The narrator had most probably been placed in the C class because __________.A) she was a poor readerB) she had come from a small schoolC) the marking system confused herD) all children of transient laborers were placed in the C class正确答案：D33.The basic reason why people in the community distrusted the transient workers was that the transient workers ________.A) tended to be lawbreakersB) had little schoolingC) were afraid of strangersD) were temporary residents正确答案：D34.Which of the following is NOT the characteristic of Gypsies?A) Wandering around the world.B) Making ginger ale in their house.C) Never planting something.D) Being foreigners wherever they go.正确答案：B35.Immediately after the narrator was moved to the A class, what was the attitude of Barbara and Barbara's friends towards her?A) Dislike.B) Acceptance.C) Apology.D) Jealousy.正确答案：BPassage 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 theynot 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.

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 thatEnglish 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 by ___________.A) picking it up naturally as a childB) learning from a native speakerC) undertaking systematic workD) not concentrating on pronunciation much正确答案：C34.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 between sounds.正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 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 poisonouswaste 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) 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.

Danish scholar Otto Jespersen wrote in 1905, "The English language would not have been what it is if the English had not been for centuries great respecters of the 21 of each individual and if everybody had not been free to 22 new paths for himself."I like that idea.

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.If you ask people to name one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like "Shakespeare", "Samuel Johnson" and "Webster" but none of these men had any effect at all compared with a man who didn't even speak English — William the Conqueror.Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived people belonging to two major language groups. In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos-Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic Language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to German.But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of England while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of politics and the law come from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a distinction between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more "foreign" than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one man's ambition.31.According to the passage, ___________ had the great effect on the English language.A) ShakespeareB) Samuel JohnsonC) WebsterD) William the Conqueror正确答案：D32.The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were _____.A) Welsh and ScottishB) Nordic and GermanicC) Celtic and Old EnglishD) Anglo-Saxon and Germanic正确答案：C33.Which of the following groups of words are, by inference, rooted in French?A) President, lawyer, beef.B) President, bread, water.C) Bread, field, sheep.D) Folk, field, cow.正确答案：A34.Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first visit to Europe?A) Because most advertisements in France appear in English.B) Because they know little of the history of the English language.C) Because many French words are similar to English ones.D) Because they know French better than German.正确答案：C35.What is the subject discussed in the text?A) The history of Great Britain.B) The similarity of Great Britain.C) The rule of England by William the Conqueror.D) The French influences on the English language.正确答案：DPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Napoleon Bonaparte was keen to learn English while in exile (流放), documents shown in Britain for the first time reveal.The deposed French emperor apparently wanted to learn the language of his foes so he could read what the London papers were writing about him. Scraps of paper from his English lessons in captivity on the island of St Helena go on show at London's National Maritime Museum on Thursday. They include lines of French haltingly translated by Napoleon into English.Count Emmanuel de las Cases, who accompanied the emperor into exile after he surrendered to the English at the Battle of Waterloo, wrote about his desire to learn the language in his memoirs (论文集). According to him, Napoleon had his first lesson on 17 January 1816, when he asked las Cases to dictate to him some sentences in French, which he then translated, using a table of auxiliary verbs and a dictionary.According to historian Dr Peter Hicks, las Cases describes how Napoleon hated being sat down to work like a schoolboy but steeled himself for the task. Dr Hicks said: "He was not necessarily anti-English. He had to fight because it was the enemy of France." He added: "In France people are amazed to find that he was learning English. But he didn't do it for pleasure. He wondered how much money he could have saved in translation if he could have learnt English."The documents are to feature in the Greenwich museum's Nelson and Napoleon exhibition, being held to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Nelson's death at the Battle of Trafalgar. They are among a wide range of letters, paintings, personal items and objects lent by galleries and museums across Europe.
