Part ⅡReading Comprehension (35 minutes)
Directions:There are 4 passages 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 and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Passage 1
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
People do not analyze every problem they meet. Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem. They often accept the o pinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking ; they try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.
First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.
Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.
Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully.
After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.
Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum(口香糖)between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.
Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short, he has solved the problem.

Passage 2
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
Stone tools, animal bones and an incised mammoth tusk found in Russia’s frigid far north have provided what archaeologists say is the first evidence that modern humans or Neanderthals lived in the Arctic more than 30,000 years ago, at least 15,000 years earlier than previously thought.
A team of Russian and Norwegian archaeologists, describing the discovery in today’s issue of the journal Nature, said the campsite, at Mamontovaya Kurya, on the Ura River at the Arctic Circle, was the “oldest documented evidence for human resence at this high latitude. ”Digging in the bed of an old river channel close to the Ural Mountains, the team uncovered 123 mammal bones, including horse, reindeer and wolf. “The most important find,” they said, was a four-foot mammoth tusk with grooves made by chopping with a sharp stone edge, “unequivocally the work of humans.” The tusk was carbon-dated at about 36,600 years old. Plant remains found among the artifacts were dated at 30,000 to 31,000 years.
Other archaeologists said the analysis appeared to be sound. But they cautioned that it was difficult, when dealing with riverbed deposits, to be sure that artifacts had not become jumbled out of their true place, and thus time, in the geologic layers. They questioned whether the discoverers could reliably conclude tha the stone tools were in fact contemporary with the bones. But in a commentary accompanying the article, Dr. John A. J. Gowlett of the University of Liverpool in England wrote, “Although there are questions to be answered, the artifacts illustrate both the capacity of early humans to do the unexpected, and the value of archaeologists’ researching in unlikely areas.”
The discoverers said they could not determine from the few stone artifacts whether the site was occupied by Neanderthals, hominids who by then had a long history as hunters in Europe and western Asia, or some of the first anatomically modern humans to reach Europe. In any case, other archaeologists said, the findings could be significant. If these toolmakers were Neanderthals, the findings suggested that these human relatives, who became extinct after 30,000 years ago, were more capable and adaptable than they are generally given credit for. Living in the Arctic climate presumably required higher levels of technology and social organization.
If they were modern humans, then the surprise is that they had penetrated so farnorth in such a short time. There has been no firm evidence for modern humans in Europe before about 35,000 years ago. It had generally been thought that the northernmost part of Eurasia was not occupied by humans until the final stage of the last ice age, some 13,000 to 14,000 years ago, when the world’s climate began to moderate. Dr. Gowlett said the new findings indicated that the Arctic region of European Russia was extremely cold but relatively dry and ice-free more than 30,000 years ago.
26.What is the significance of the discovery?
A) It shows that modern humans lived in the Arctic more than 3,000 years ago.
B) It shows that Neanderthals lived in the Arctic more than 3,000 years ago.
C) It shows the oldest documented evidence for human presence at such high latitude.
D) It shows human could use tools 30,000 years ago.
27.Why the team believed that the four-foot mammoth tusk was the most important find?
A) Because it was the longest tusk ever found.
B) Because there were signs left by human’s tools on it.
C) Because there were grooves on it.
D) Because there are not any mammoth tusk all over the world.
28.When did the Neanderthals extinct?
A) More than 30,000 years ago.B) After 30,000 years ago.
C) Before about 35,000 years ago.D) Some 13,000 to 14,000 years ago.
29.Who were those toolmakers?
A) Neanderthals. B) Modern humans.C) Archaeologists. D) Not determined.
30.What’s the weather like in the Arctic region of European Russia more than 30,000 years ago?
A) Moderate temperature, relatively dry and ice-free.
B) Extremely cold, relatively dry and ice-free.
C) Extremely cold, plenty of raining and ice-free.
D) Extremely cold, relatively dry and ice frosted.
Passage 3
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
After watching my mother deal with our family of five, I can’t understand why her answer to the question, “What do you do?” is always, “Oh, I’m just a housewife.” JUST a housewife?” Anyone who spends most of her time in meal preparation and cleanup, washing and drying clothes, keeping the house clean, leading ascout troop, playing taxi driver to us kids when it’s time for school, music lessons or the dentist, doing volunteer work for her favorite charity, and making sure that all our family needs are met is not JUST a housewife. She’ s the real Wonder Woman.
Why is it that so many mothers like mine think of themselves as second-class or something similar? Where has this notion come from? Have we males made them feel this way? Has our society made “going to work” outside the home seem more important than what a housewife must face each day?
I would be very curious to see what would happen if a housewife went on strike. Dishes would pile up. Food in the house would run out. No meals would appear on the table. There would be no clean clothes when needed. High boots would be required just to make it through the house scattered with garbage. Walking and bus riding would increase. Those scout troops would have to break up. Charities would suffer.
I doubt if the man of the house would be able to take over. Oh, he might start out with the attitude that he can do just as good a job, but how long would that last? Not long, once he had to come home each night after work to more household duties. There would be no more coming home to a prepared meal; he’d have to fix it himself. The kids would all be screaming for something to eat, clean clothes and more bus fare money. Once he quieted the kids, he’d have to clean the house, go shopping, make sure that kids got a bath, and fix lunches for the next day. Once the kids were down for the night, he might be able to crawl into an unmade bed and try to read the morning newspaper.
No, I don’t think many males are going to volunteer for the job. I know I don’t want it. So, thanks, mom! I’ll do what I can to create a national holiday for housewives. It could be appropriately called Wonder Woman Day.
31.By what means do the children of the author’s family go to school?
A) They take school bus.B) They take a taxi.
C) Their mother drives for them.D) Scout troop sends them to school.
32.If a housewife went on strike, which one of the following statements is NOT true?
A) Children would scream for something to eat.
B) No meals would appear on the table.
C) The scout troops would have a wonderful time.
D) The man of the house wouldn’t be able to take over.
33.In the author’s opinion, ____.
A) many males are going to volunteer for housewives’ work
B) housewives deserve a national holiday named Wonder Woman Day
C) the man of the house would be able to take over the housewives’ work
D) housewives are second-class citizens or something similar
34.The author’s attitude toward housewives’ work is ____.
A) critical B) indifferent C) ironical D) appreciative
35.The main idea of the passage is about ____.
A) housewives, the wonder women
B) what would happen if housewives went on strike
C) the replacement of women by men as housewives
D) the setting up of a national holiday for housewives
Passage 4
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
Children are getting so fat they may be the first generation to die before their parents, an expert claimed yesterday.
Today’s youngsters are already falling prey to potential killers such as diabetes because of their weight. Fatty fast-food diets combined with sedentary lifestyles dominated by televisions and computers could mean kids will die tragically young, says Professor Andrew Prentice, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.
At the same time, the shape of the human body is going through a huge evolutionary shift because adults are getting so fat. Here in Britain, latest research shows that the average waist size for a man is 36-38in and may be 42-44in by 2032.
This compares with only 32.6in in 1972. Women’s waists have grown from an average of 22in in 1920 to 24 ins in the Fifties and 30in now. One of the major reasons why children now are at greater risk is that we are getting fatter younger. In the UK alone, more than one million under-16s are classed as overweight or obese — double the number in the mid-Eighties. One in ten four-year-olds are also medically classified as obese. The obesity pandemic — an extensive epidemic — which started in the US, has now spread to Europe, Australia, Central America and the Middle East.
Many nations now record more than 20 per cent of their population as clinically obese and well over half the population as overweight. Prof Prentice said the change in our shape has been caused by a glut of easily available high-energy foods combined with a dramatic drop in the energy we use as a result of technology developments.
He is not alone in his concern. Only last week one medical journal revealed how obesity was fuelling a rise in cancer cases. Obesity also increases the risk factor for strokes and heart disease. An averagely obese person’s lifespan is shortened by around nine years while a severely obese person by many more.
Prof Prentice said: “So will parents outlive their children, as claimed recently by an American obesity specialist?” The answer is yes — and no. Yes, when the offspring become grossly obese. This is now becoming an alarmingly common occurrence in the US. Such children and adolescents have a greatly reduced quality of life in terms of both their physical and psychosocial health. So say No to that doughnut and burger.
36.What does the word “sedentary (Para. 2)” mean?
A) sit still. B) eat too much. C) study very hardh. D) passive thinking.
37.Which statement is TRUE?
A) The average waist size for a man is 36-38in.
B) The average waist size for a woman is 30in.
C) In the mid-Eighties, more than half million under-16s in the UK are classed as overweight.
D) The obesity pandemic has now spread to South America.
38.According to Prof Prentice, what are the reasons for the change in our shape?
A) We eat too much and refuse to do physical exercises.
B) High-energy foods are easy to get and technology develops fast.
C) High-energy foods are the main diet and we use technology.
D) High-energy foods are easy to get and we consume less energy.
39.Obesity increases the risk factor of ____.
A) diabetes, short sight, cancer, strokes
B) diabetes, cancer, strokes, psychosocial illness
C) cancer, strokes, fatty, heart disease
D) strokes, heart disease, diabetes, headache
40.What does the author mean by “So say No to that doughnut and burger”?
A) Answering the question “will parents outlive their children?”.
B) The doughnut and burger should be banned.
C) We should lead a healthy life.
D) We should begin dieting.

The place of the child in society has varied for thousands of years and has been effected by different cultures and religions. In ancient times unwanted children were occasionally abandoned, put to death, exploiting or offered for religious sacrifices, and in any event a large percentage of them didn’t survive their physically hazardous existence to reach to maturity.
In western civilization within the last few hundred years, there have been many changes in attitude with the young. In agricultural Europe, and later with the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the children of the poor work long hours for little or no pay, and there was no public concern on their safety or welfare punishment could be brutal and severe.
By the eighteenth century the harsh and severe methods began to show any change. Society slowly accorded(給予) children a role of importance. Books were written expressly for them and gradually laws were passing for their protection. Efforts were made to create for them a life better than their parents!
In the past few decades parents have become more and more attentive for the needs of their children.Better health care is available and education is no longer reserving for the children from wealthy families.

俄羅斯和挪威的考古學家在俄國極北部發現了石器,動物骨骼及一只帶有石器鑿痕的猛犸象長牙,這證明現代人類或尼安德特人曾在3萬年前就已經生活 在這一地區,比先前認定的提前了一萬五千年。但有些考古學家雖然認為對這些發現的鑒定是正確的,但并不能證明這些石器與動物的骨殖屬于同一年代。不管怎樣,這些發現意義重大:如果制造這些石器的是尼安德特人,那么就證明他們比我們現在認為的要更為能干及適應環境;如果是現代人,那么在人類定居歐洲后,在如此短的時間內就能推進到極北地區,不能不說是非常令人驚訝的。

28. 答 案 B!緟⒖甲g文】 穴居人是何時滅絕的?【試題分析】 細節題。【詳細解答】 文中倒數第二段指出,Neanderthals, …who became extinct after 30,000 years ago,說明尼安德特人是在距今3萬年前以后漸漸消亡的,B項數字正確。
29. 答 案 D!緟⒖甲g文】 誰是工具的制造者?【試題分析】 綜合判斷題!驹敿毥獯稹 縱觀全文,考古學家對居住在此地的人種仍在爭論,不能確定到底是尼安德特人還是現代人曾在此居住,所以D項正確。

現在的孩子們正變得越來越胖,以至于他們可能成為先他們父母而去的一代。由于過度肥胖,現在的孩子們已經變成了一些潛在病魔的獵物,糖尿病就是 其中之一。倫敦衛生及熱帶醫學學院的安德魯?普倫蒂斯教授認為,脂肪含量過高的快餐飲食,加上電視和電腦使得孩子們養成了久坐不動的生活方式,極有可能大 大縮短年輕一代的壽命。與此同時,成人們正越長越胖。為什么現在的孩子們面臨著比我們更大的危險呢?原因之一就在于,他們發胖的年齡比我們早得多。普倫蒂 斯教授說,導致我們體形變化的原因是,現代生活中高熱量食物隨處可見,隨手可得,而科技的發展使得人們每天消耗的熱量卻大大減少。如果下一代繼續長胖,就有可能比他們的父母壽命還短。
36. 答 案 A!緟⒖甲g文】 “sedentary (Para. 2)”的意思是?【試題分析】 指代題。【詳細解答】 sedentary出現在Fatty fast-food diets combined with sedentary lifestyles dominated by televisions and computers could mean kids will die tragically young,…句意為“脂肪含量過高的快餐飲食,加上電視和電腦使得孩子們養成了sedentary的生活方式,極有可能大大縮短年輕一代的壽命”,“電 視和電腦”是養成孩子們sedentary的生活方式的原因,由此可見,sedentary指“久坐不動”。

40. 答 案 C。【參考譯文】 通過 “So say No to that doughnut and burger”作者表達了?【試題分析】 意圖理解題!驹敿毥獯稹 此句意為“所以,就讓我們向油炸圈和夾肉餅說‘不’吧”,這不是回答“孩子們的壽命是否會比他們的父母還短呢?”,其意圖是呼吁人們要有健康的生活方式,不是要禁止油膩食物,也不是要人們一起減肥。因此C項符合作者意圖。

Sample Writing
On Part-time Jobs
People have different views on whether college students should take part-time jobs. I think part- time jobs have both their advantages and disadvantages.
First, part-time jobs may offer students an opportunity to display their ability and help them apply their knowledge in practice, and in return, their experience will make them know better what they have learned in class and books. Second, part-time jobs in business can foster a sense of competition, which they need in future. Part-time jobs make students more confident in themselves because through the work they can realize their own value and prove that they are capable people. Third, it helps students develop a sense of independence, and helps relieve their parents’ economic burdens. With the money earned, they can buy whatever they need for their study.
However, part-time jobs often distract students’ attention from their studies, and some students even play truant. It is evident that they can hardly focus their attention on their study if they work several hours on the job, for they may be preoccupied with how to improve their work most of the time. Though students who have part -time jobs may relieve their parents’ economic burdens, their early contact with society may expose them to some social ills.
Owing to the advantages and disadvantages involved in working part-time, students have to strike a balance between their study and the job. The main task of students is to study hard and learn what is needed for their future career, social experience can be gained after graduation.
