II. Cloze Test (30 points, 1.5 for each)

Directions:There are 15 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.

I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper(脾气) has _31 me with plenty of opportunities(机会) to make them. In one of my earliest 32 , my mother is telling me, ―Don‘t watch the33 when you say ?I‘m sorry‘. Hold your head up and look the person in the 34 , so he‘ll know you35 it.‖

My mother thus made the key point of a(n) 36 apology: it must be direct. You must never 37 to be doing something else. You do not 38 a pile of letters while apologizing to a person 39 in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your 40 . You do not apologize to a hostess(女主人), whose guest of honor you treat 41 , by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad 42 .

One of the important things you should do for an 43 apology is readiness to 44 the responsibility(责任) for our careless mistakes. We are used to making excuses, which leaves no 45 for the other person to 46 us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling 47 about themselves. That, after all, is the 48 of every apology. It 49 little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault: answering for one‘s50 encourages others to take their share of the blame.

31.A.provided B.mixed C.compared D.treated 32.A.dreams B.courses C.memories D.ideas 33.A.side B.ground C.wall D.bottom 34.A.mind B.soul C.face D.eye 35.A.imagine B.enjoy C.mean D.regret 36.A.useful B.successful C.equal D.basic 37.A.pretend B.forget C.refuse D.expect 38.A.hold on B.put away C.look through D.pick up 39.A.poorer B.weaker C.worse D.lower 40.A.fault B.reason C.result D.duty 41.A.cruelly B.freely C.roughly D.foolishly 42.A.manners B.excuses C.efforts D.roles 43.A.active B.effective C.extra D.easy 44.A.raise B.perform C.admit D.bear 45.A.situation B.need C.sign D.room 46.A.advise B.forgive C.warn D.blame

47.A.wiser B.warmer C.better D.cleverer

Passage 3

For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world‘s greatest poet and greatest dramatist. Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the works of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare‘ s writing that have become part of the common property of English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we use, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of HAMLET and complained that ―it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations. ‖

Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand. There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare‘s day.

61. English people_______________.

A. have never discussed who is the world‘s greatest poet and greatest dramatist

B. never discuss about the world‘s greatest poets or dramatists

C. are sure who is the world‘s greatest poets and dramatist dramatist

D. do not care who is the world‘s greatest poets and dramatist dramatist

62. Every Englishman knows____________.

A. More or less about Shakespeare

B. Shakespeare, but only slightly

C. all the Shakespeare‘s writings

D. only the name of the greatest English writer

63. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. We use all the words, phrases and questions from Shakespeare‘s writings.

B. Shakespeare‘s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.

C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origin of the words they use.

D. All the words people use are taken from Shakespeare‘s writings.

64. ―HAMLET‖ is _____________

A. a play written by Shakespeare

B. a play recommended by Shakespeare

C. a play appreciated by Shakespeare

D. a play people have been complaining about

65. It is worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English because______.

A. English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare‘s time

B. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of English language

C. English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare‘s days

D. English words are now the same in various ways as in Shakespeare‘s days

Section B Short Answer (15 points, 3 for each)

Directions: Answer each of the following questions in less than 10 words.

Sam and Joe were astronauts. There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced astronauts. Knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive.

Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs. When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again, no answer came. Then he hit the door as he could and finally a voice said, ―Who is there ?‖―It‘s me. Who else could it be?‖shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again.

IV. Writing

Children can‘t live happily and healthily without parents, because parents have done a lot during the growth of children. From the necessities such as three meals a day to school education at different levels, parents‘ love of and devotion to children are felt everywhere.

As children have become grown up, they realize how much their parents have done for them and how important it is to repay their parents. Some work so hard to earn large sums of money to provide big houses for their parents. Others are always cooking delicious food or buying expensive clothes for them. Still others arrange for parents to go traveling both home and abroad and the like. Naturally all these would make their parents happy.

However, as far as I am concerned, what parents need most is simply a call, a talk, or a dinner together. To tell you the truth, whenever I have spare time, I try to see them in person, have meals with them, talk with them and share with them my joys and sorrows, which offers them the greatest happiness. In a word, I think we should repay our parents with the deep love from the bottom of our hearts as they have done for us

The servants were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow (暗淡的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a

World of the Future Scientists think that wonderful things may come true in the future. Future means a time that is not yet here. It can be a short time from now or a long time from now. Some of the underwater wonders are almost ready to come true now. Others won't come tree, we think, until a long time from now. Some, of course, may never come true--but who knows for sure? They may. What are some of the wonders that may come true in the future? A world underground The green utopia (an ideally perfect place) underground is going to help us regain a more harmonious relationship between the often opposing sides of large-scale development and our ecosystem. The city may be called Alice City, from Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland, which offers a wonderful world that is almost as fantastical as that was described in the book. A large clear dome (圆顶), within an area of open parkland, leads into a multi-leveled structured metropolis of underground offices, housing, transportation and public areas. There will be everything to make the city as self-sufficient as possible including shopping malls, theatres and sports complexes in addition to facilities (contained in a separate structure) for power generation, heating and waste recycling. Apart from offering an almost limitless space for development, such underground development has many more attractive ecological advantages over traditional forms of housing. It is less disturbing than high rise development and therefore favorable in environmentally sensitive areas. Land above the complex can be set aside for parkland and recreational use. In towns or cities where pollution levels are high, air can be filtered through air pipes in the roof of an underground housing or industrial complex. A world underwater At the docks you step into a shiny metal submarine that is shaped like a shark. The door is closed behind you, and powerful engine starts to push. Down slides the submarine--like a shark diving. Deeper and deeper under the water. Soon all sunlight is gone. The headlights of the diving ship are turned on. Then, six miles below, you come to the sea bottom. From the diving submarine, you change to tiny jet boat and ride along close to the bottom of the ocean, almost as you would skim over the land in an air-plane. As you travel, you have fun looking out the window at the sights on the bottom of the ocean. You see strange fish and underwater mountains, cliffs, and valleys. But more than that--hotels and mining camps and farms and factories! A world in space Let's go back to dry land and take a future journey the other way-up instead of down. Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the Moon Camp. You walk around on the moon in a special moon suit. You visit an observatory where a giant telescope looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been able to see from Earth. You go deep down into one of the moon mines. After you have visited the moon, you visit the Mars Colony and the Venus Exploration Outpost. A new world on the Earth Let's go back to Earth. In the far, far future, girls--and boys, too--may be playing with dolls that look like the people of the planets visited by our spacemen. To control or run all kinds of toys, boys and girls may learn to use special computers --machines that answer questions and do arithmetic faster than you can blink. Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer. Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy (心灵感应) helmets that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! Robots There will be other surprises in the future. How would you like to have a robot playmate? Having robot playmates may not be-so much fun as it seems. But maybe a boy with a wrench (扳手) and a screwdriver can fix the robot so that it won't be too perfect! Food What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial --made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. You don't think that ice-cream or cake or candy or even bread and potatoes made out of these things will taste very good? You may be wrong. These artificial things will be blended so skillfully by food chemists that the food of the future probably will be delicious. It probably will also be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. A longer life Scientists of the future will almost certainly find other ways to make life last longer. They probably will find cures for most diseases. Hospitals will probably have "body banks" that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. TV Are you wondering whether there'll be television in the future? There'll almost certainly be wonderful programs. Television screens probably will be large and flat, hanging on the wall or going across the four walls of a room. People on the screen will look as real as if they were right in the room with you. Highways What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer. Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the "driver" wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving by car will be as safe as being at home. Weather control But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the "weatherman" thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live. But the time you axe living in now was also "a wonderful future" to the people who lived 100 years ago. 1. The underground city would get its name from a book called Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland. A. Y B. N C. NG 2. The multi-leveled structure underground would include everything that is necessary to a city, from offices, shopping malls to power and heating system. A. Y B. N C. NG
