Part II Reading Comprehension (40 %)

Directions^ In this part there are 4 passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the ONE you think is the best answer, then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Passage One

People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for him or her and for invited friends.

People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you; on the train you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spread your books around you.

Once I was traveling on a train to London, I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole table. I had been reading a book about nonverbal communication so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table.

21. What does the first sentence in Paragraph 1 mean?

A. The home matters greatly to Englishmen.

B. The home is more important than the castle.

C. The castle is more important than the home.

D. Englishmen usually live in home instead of a castle.

22. Which of the following is NOT the reason fbr most British to live in houses?

A. They love their houses more than their gardens.

B. They can make changes in the houses where they live.

C. They can own private space like the house and the garden.

D. They can keep the private space to themselves and friends.

23. According to Para. 2, if you spread your books around you in the library, it means___ .

A. you like to spread your books around you

B. you can read one of them easily on the table

C. you find no space fbr your books on the seat

D. you want to tell others the space belongs to you

24. How did the man opposite to the writer show he owned the whole table?

B. He placed his briefcase on the table.

C. He was traveling on a train to London.

D. He was reading a book on communication.

25. The writer tried to get back his space by___ .

A. moving the case off the table

B. reading papers on the briefcase

C. putting papers on the man's case

D. showing the books concerned to the man

Passage Two

Traditional leather men laugh at the claims made for plastic. They say that plastic shoes are hot in summer and cold in winter. It is not so good as leather, and plastic of high quality is not cheap enough to make it profitable for shoemakers to change from leather.

This may be true for men, who buy strong, comfortable and well-made shoes. Women, however, want fashionable shoes, and do not care too much about what they are made of as long as they look smart. The high quality of leather needed to make smart and attractive women's shoes is very expensive and these shoes are so well made that they outlast the rapid changes of fashion. Only a few women can afford to buy a new pair of leather shoes each time the fashion changes.

Perhaps there will be two kinds of shoemakers in the future, those making shoes fbr men and the luxury markets for women, whose material will be leather, and those aiming at the popular market for women. Does this mean that men will only be able to buy strong, lasting, leather shoes, and women only able to afford cheap, fashionable, plastic shoes made to last only fbr a few months?

26. Which of the three paragraphs represents primarily a guess about the future?

A. Only the second. B. Only the third.

C. The first and the second. D. The second and the third.

27. Women seem more likely to use plastic shoes than men because women___ .

A. are more interested in style B. don't want shoes that wear well

C. can't afford to pay as much fbr shoes D. focus more on what the shoes are made of

28. Women who___ will continue to wear leather shoes according to the author.

A. are interested in fashion B. want new shoes frequently

C. search for a bargain D. are wealthy

29. The author's purpose in this passage is primarily to have us___ .

A. become aware of differences between men and women

B. know about modem techniques in shoe making

C. enjoy an interesting story about shoes

D. think about future changes in shoes

30. What is the author's attitude about making shoes of plastic?

A. He does not express his own attitude.

B. He fevors them for both men and women.

C. He favors them fbr women but not for men.

D. He is against them for both men and women.

Passage Three

It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions, the bases fbr the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.

Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only "remembering" things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed^至U) something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.

Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, fbr example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 "words" — ready fbr instant use. An average U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.

The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person's memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.

31. According to the passage, memory is considered to be___ .

A. an intelligence typically possessed by human beings

B. the basis fbr decision-making and problem-solving

C. an ability to store experiences fbr future use

D. the data mainly consisting of words

32. The comparison made between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that the computer's memory capacity is___ .

A. much smaller than an adult human being

B. much smaller even than a teenager's

C. much bigger than a normal adult

D. the same as a teenager's

33. The whole passage implies that___ .

A. animals are able to solve only very simple problems

B. only human beings have problem-solving intelligence

C. animals solve problems by instinct rather than intelligence

D. a person's memory is different from a computer's in every respect

34. The phrase "in terms of9 in the last sentences can best be replaced by___ .

A. “in connection with" B. "expressed by"

C. "existing in,, D. “in contrast with"

35. The topic of the passage is "___ ”.

A. The computer can replace human for storing data in the future.

B. Memory is of vital importance to life.

C. How is a person's memory so different from an animafs?

D. What is contained in memory?

Passage Four

Most Americans would agree, one of the United States' most pressing social problems is the breakdown of the two-parent family. Today, millions of American children grow up without fathers, often in poverty. Too often, these children lack the love and guidance they desperately need—and which they would ordinarily receive from two responsible parents. Traditionally, American parents have placed the needs of their children above their own, often delaying their own gratification (享受)or sacrificing material comforts in the interests of their children's future. At present, however, nearly one half of all new marriages end in divorce, with often troubling consequences for the children involved. Worse, every year, thousands of teenage, unmarried Americans become mothers outside the context of wedlock altogether, with generally disastrous results for the mothers and children alike and for American society more generally. In refreshing contrast, Chinese continue to value intact marriages. This is not to say that Chinese marriages are all perfect~they certainly are not, judging from increasing rates of divorce and extramarital (女昏夕卜)affairs—but the willingness of Chinese to set aside their own needs and stay together fbr the sake of the children is admirable and worthy of study.

36. The passage is mainly concerned with___ .

A. the influence of divorce over children

B. the breakdown of the two-parent family in the US

C. the Chinese marriage is a good example fbr Americans

D. the necessity for parents to place children's needs above their own

37. Which of the following best summarizes the author's attitude towards Chinese marriage?

A. Indifferent. B. Joyful. C. Critical. D. Admiring.

38. According to the author, parents should___ .

A. never divorce if they have children

B. sacrifice everything fbr their children

C. give their children love and guidance

D. avoid troubling children if they've divorced

39. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Most American parents place their own needs above the children's.

B. Unmarried mothers have to bring up their children in poverty.

C. Chinese marriages are not without problems.

D. Divorce rate in the US has reached 50%.

40. The text is taken from___ .

A. a police report C. a medical magazine

B. a legal document D. a cultural exchange essay

Part III Cloze (10%)

Directions^ There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, andD. You should choose the ONE answer that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Knowing why English people always look for an empty compartment and are unwilling to talk to strangers, I thought I was going to have a quiet trip to Scotland. That 41 me as I had a lot of work to do in 42 for my business meeting the following day. I always travel long distance by 43 as I can sit down and work at a table and in any 44 I find both driving and flying very nerve-racking and 45.

The journey turned 46 to be something of a nightmare. Our train was 47 by heavy snowfalls.When it became clear that rescue would take some time, every body piled into one carriage to huddle together for warmth. So I spent the night singing and 48 and listening to stories. We were airlifted out 49 helicopter in the morning.

Despite the 50 on the way, I am glad I took the train as some of my colleagues, traveling by car, never arrived at the morning.

Part IV Translation (20 %)

Directions: Read the following passage carefully. Then translate the underlined sentences marked from 51-55 into Chinese. You should write your translation on the Answer Sheet.

Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? (51) Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one fhce diflferent fh)m another. Yet a very young child…or even an animal, such as a pigeon-can learn to recognize faces. We all take this ability for granted.

We also tell people apart by how they behave. (52) When we talk about someone's personality (個(gè)，性)，we mean the ways in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks and fbels that make that individual different fh)m others.

Like the human face, human personality is very complex. (53) But describing someone's personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his fhce. If you were asked to describe what a “nice face,9 looked like, you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a "nice person,you might begin to think about someone who was kind, considerate, friendly, warm, and so forth.

There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels and acts. Gordon Allport, an American psychologist, found nearly 18 000 English words characterizing differences in people's behavior. (54 ) And many of us use this information as a basis for describing, or typing, his personality. Bookworms, conservatives, military types-people are described with such terms.

People have always tried to "type” each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villain's (i^A) or the hero's role. In fact, the words "person" and "personality" come from the Latin persona, meaning "mask." Today, most television and movie actors do not wear masks. (55) But we can easily tell the “good guys" fhjm the "bad guys" because the two types dififer in apDearance as well as in actions.
