Part ⅡReading Comprehension?

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1 Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. The three main types of secondary education in the United States have been provided by the Latin grammar school,the academy,and the public high school.The first of these was a colonial institution.It began in New England with the establish ment in 1635 of the Boston Free Latin School.The curriculum(课程) consisted mainly of the classical languages,and the purpose of this kind of school was the preparation of boys for college,where most of them would be fitted for the ministry. The academy began in the early 1750’s with Benjamin Franklin’s school in Philadelphia,which later became the University of Pennsylvania.It extended generally to? about the middle nineteeth century,except in the southern states where the public high school was late in developing and where the academy continued to be a principal means of secondary education even after 1900.The academy was open to girls as well as to boys,and it provided a wider curriculum than what the Latin grammar school had furnished.It was designed not only as a preparation for college? but also for practical life in commercial and business activities.Although its wide educational values are evident and are recognized as important contributions? to secondary education in this country,the academy has never been considered a? public institution as the public high school has come to be. The public high school had its origin in Massachusetts in 1821 when the English? Classical School was established in Boston.In 1827,the state enacted(制定)the first statewide public highschool law in the United States.By 1840,there were? perhaps a dozen public high schools in Massachusetts and many in other eastern states by 1850,they could also be found in many other states.Just as the curriculum of the academy grew out of that of the Latin grammar school,the curriculum of? the public high school developed out of that of the academy.The public high school in the United States is a repudiation(推翻) of the aristocratic(贵族的)and selective principle of the European educational tradition.Since 1890,enrollments( 入学)in secondary schools,mainly public high schools,have practically doubled in? this country every ten years. 21.According to the passage,which of the following sequences indicates the? order in which the schools developed? A)Latin grammar school,public high school,academy. B)Latin grammar school,academy,public high school. C)Public high school,Latin grammar school,academy. D)Public high school,academy,Latin grammar school. 22.It is the opinion of the author that the academy,compared with the public high school,was ____. A)obviously academically better B)more discriminatory in student selection C)coeducational D)not generally considered as a public institution 23.The year 1827 marks the ____. A)enactment of the first statewide public highschool law B)founding of the Latin Grammar School in Boston C)establishment of the English classical School in Boston D)year when Massachusetts made free public education compulsory after the eighth? grade 24.One can probably infer from his article that “Latin grammar school”refers to ____. A)the Boston Free Latin School B)all the elementary schools in the United States C)schools which taught Latin,exclusive of all other subjects D)a number of schools which developed in New England 25.It is implied but not stated in the passage that ____. A)European educational systems are not good B)As high schools developed in the united states,the decision was made to make them responsible to people from all classes of socitety. C)There was an aristocratic and selective principle in the European educaional tradition D)public high schools in the United States embraced the European educational tradition ? Passage 2 Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. In the eighteenth—century one of the first modern economists,Adam Smith,thought? that the “whole annual produce of the land and labour of every country” provided revenue to “three different orders of people:those who live by rent,those who live by wages,and those who live by profit”.Each successive stage of the industrial revolution,however,made the social structure more complicated. Many intermediate groups grew up during the nineteenth century between the upper? middle class and the working class.There were small—scale industrialists as we ll as large ones,small shopkeepers and tradesmen,officials and salaried employees,skilled and unskilled workers,and professional men such as doctors and teachers.Farmers and peasants continued in all countries as independent groups. During the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries the possession of wealth inevitably affected a person’s social position.Intelligent industrialists with initiative made fortunes by their wits which lifted them into an economic group far higher than that of their working—class parents.But they lacked social training? of the upper class,who despised them as the “new rich.” They often sent their sons and daughters to special school to acquire soical training.Here their children,mixed with the children of the upper classes,were accepted by them,and very often found marriage partners from among them.In the same way,a thrifty,hardworking labourer,though not clever himself,might save for his son enough to pay for an extended secondary school education in the hope that he? would move in a “whitecollar”occupation,carrying with it a higher salary and? a move up in the social scale. In the twentieth century the increased taxation of higher incomes,the growth of? the social services,and the wider development of educational opportunity have considerably altered the social outlook.The upper classes no longer are the sole, or even the main possessors of wealth,power and education,though inherited social? position still carries considerable prestige. 26.What criterion did Adam Smith seem to go by in his classification of social groups? A)The amount of wealthB)The amount of money C)The social statusD)The way of getting money 27.If you compare the first and second paragraph,what groups of people did? Adam Smith leave out in his classification? A)Officials and employees.B)Peasants and farmers. C)Doctors and teachers.D)Tradesmen and landlords. 28.Who were the ‘new rich’ during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries? A)They were still the upper class people. B)They were owners of large factories. C)They were intelligent industrialists. D)They were skilled workers who made their fortune. 29.According to the passage,what did those people do who intended to make their children move up in the social ladder? A)They saved a lot of money for their children to receive higher education. B)They tried to find marriage partners from the children of the upper class. C)They made greater fortunes by their wits. D)They worked even harder to acquire social training. 30.In the twentieth century class differences have been partly smoothed out? by ____. A)increased income and decreased taxation B)taxation,social services and educational opportunities C)education,the increase of income and industrial development D)the decrease of the upper class population ? Passage 3 Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. Attitudes differed to small errors of grammar and usage,or inappropriateness of? vocabulary and idiom,with the native speakers finding such errors a little irksome(令人厌烦的),though sometimes amusing,while the Chinese panel members paid hardly any attention to such errors as,for example,misuse of phrasal verbs and similar usages:“When I saw the job description,I decided to apply the position.” “I expect to find out a lot of challenge in the job.”“I can deal the emergency situations efficiently.” Errors of idiom or appropriateness caused more comment,during the post interview? discussion,from the native speakers than from the Chinese panel members,on whom? the errors were sometimes lost.For example,one candidate,when asked what salary? he expected,replied:“I don’t care about it.”The message was clear enough,namely that he was primarily interested in the job,but the formulation of the message? was not quite right.Even such ribticklers(笑话)as “I am a wellplanned person .”and “I would like to expose myself in another field”(both actually heard at? interviews) tended to cause lipbiting among the expatriate rather than the Chinese interviewers. Panels with two Chinese and one expatriate used to be more common,but are becoming less common.The reason is that with more of the interview now being conducted? in Chinese,the nonChinesespeaker does not know what has already been asked? and is liable to repeat in English questions that have already been covered in Chinese.This caused,naturally enough,confusion in the interviewee and can adversely affect the whole interview. The sensible procedure would seem to be to open the interview in the mother tongue of the candidates,to put them at their ease,then at a later stage turn to English,to test English proficiency.In practice,however,possibly because of the problem mentioned in the previous paragraph when the panel contains a foreigner,it? is often the reverse,with a few,fairly standard,opening questions in English,and if these are successfully answered,then the job interview properly gets underway in Cantonese. One of the worst interview scenarios(方案)is when a foreigner who thinks she/he? can speak Cantonese (but does so,in fact,badly) decides to question the interviewee in Cantonese.In other circumstances of a social nature the interviewee would? no doubt politely compliment the foreigner on his or her good Cantonese,but in? the seriousness of a job interview situation,the Chinese is confused and slightly embarrassed for the foreigner.These forays(初步尝试)into Chinese usually end pretty quickly with one of the Chinese members of the panel rescuing the foreigner and continuing the interview in English. 31.The word “adversely” in the last sentence of the third paragraph is? closest in meaning to ____. A)positivelyB)negativelyC)hardD)slightly 32.Concerning misuses of phrasal verbs,____. A)both Chinese and the native speakers of English find them amusing B)the Chinese interviewers tend to be tolerant C)the Chinese interviewers and the English native speaker interviewers often have a discussion〖ZK)〗 D)might sometimes become a laughing stock to the native speakers of English but? draw hardly any attention from the Chinese 33.It is implied in the passage that ____. A)Chinese are generally liable to make mistakes in English grammar and vocabular y usage B)expatriate interviewers are generally more friendly with interviews C)braver candidates can often get the upper hand D)the candidates often deliver an improper message for the use of inappropriate? expressions 34.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A)The nonChinesespeaking interviewer might ask the questions which have already been asked by the Chinese and hence cause confusion. B)It is more practicable to start an interview with a few fairly standard questions in English before switching to Chinese. C)The best procedure of an interview would seem to be beginning in Cantonese and? then testing English proficiency. D)The Chinese interviewee often politely compliments the foreign interviewer if? he or she speaks cantonese if it is not actually so good in the interview. 35.This passage is mainly concerned with ____. A)whether language proficiency or work abuility counts in job interviews B)how to avoid awkward situation in a job interview in HongKong C)the language used in a job interview with both Chinese and expatriate panel members D)the sensible procedure of getting on with an interview where the Chinese interviewee’s English is to be tested Passage 4 Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. The concept of personal choice in relation to health behaviors is an important one.An estimated 90 percent of all illnesses may be preventable if individuals would make sound personal health choice and do not like to see it restricted when? it is within the legal and moral boundaries of society.The structure of American? society allows us to make almost all our own personal decisions that may concern our health.If we so desire,we can smoke,drink excessively,refuse to wear seat? belts,eat whatever foods we want,and live a completely sedentary life style without any exercise.The freedom to make such personal decisions is a fundamental aspect of our society,although the wisdom of these decisions can be questioned.Personal choices relative to health often cause a difficulty.As one example,a teenager may know the facts relative to smoking cigarettes and health but may be pressured by friends into believing it is the socially accepted thing to do. A multitude of factors,both inherited and environmental,influence the development of healthrelated behaviors,and it is beyond the scope of this text to discuss all these factors as they may affect any given individual.However,the decision? to adopt a particular healthrelated behavior is usually one of personal choices.There are healthy choices and there are unhealthy choices.In discussing the morals of personal choice,Fries and Grapo drew a comparison.They suggest that to? knowingly give onself over to a behavior that has a statistical probability of shortening life is similar to attempting suicide.Thus,for those individuals who are interested in preserving both the quality and quantity of life,personal health choices should reflect those behaviors that are associated with a statistical? probability of increased vitality and longevity. 36.The concept of personal choice concerning health is important because ____. A)personal health choice help cure most illness B)it helps raise the level of our medical knowledge C)it is essential to personal freedom in American society D)wrong decisions could lead to poor health 37.To “live a completely sedentary lifestyle”(L7,Para.1)in the passage? means____. A)to “live an inactive life” B)to “live a decent life” C)to “live a life with complete freedom” D)to “live a life of vice” 38.Sound personal health choice is often difficult to make because ____.  A)current medical knowledge is still insufficient B)there are many factors influencing our decisions C)few people are willing to trade the quality of life for the quantity of life D)people are usually influenced by the behavior of their friends 39.To knowingly allow oneself to pursue unhealthy habits is compared by Fries and Crapo to ____. A)improving the quality of one’s life B)limiting one’s personal health choice C)deliberately ending one’s life D)breaking the rules of social behavior 40.According to Fries and Crapo sound health choices should be based on ____. A)personal decisions B)society’s laws C)statistical evidenceD)friend’s opinions ? Part Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure??

(15 minutes) Directions:In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements.Read the passage carefully.Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Many parents who welcome the idea of turning off the TV and spending more time with the family are still worried that without TV they would constantly be on call as entertainers for their children. They remember thinking up all sorts of things to do when they were kids. But their own kids seem different, less resourceful, somehow. When there’s nothing to do, these parents observe regret fully, their kids seem unable to come up with anything to do beside turning on the TV. One father, for example, says,“When I was a kid, we were always thinking up things to do, projects and games. We certainly never complained in an annoying way to our parents. ‘I have nothing to do!’”He compares this with his own children today:“They’re simply lazy. If someone doen’t entertain them, they’ll happily sit there watching TV all day.” There is one word for this father’s disappointment: unfair. It is as if he were disappointed in them for not reading Greek though they have never studied the language. He deplores(哀叹) his children’s lack of inventiveness, as if the ability to play were something innate(天生的) that his children are missing. In fact, while the tendency to play is built into the human species, the actual ability to play—to imagine, to invent, to elaborate on reality in a playful way—and the ability to gain fulfillment from it, these are skills that have to be learned and developed. Such disappointment, however, is not only unjust, it is also destructive. Sensing their parents’ disappointment, children come to believe that they are, indeed, lacking something, and that this makes them less worthy of admiration and respect. Giving children the opportunity to develop new resources, to enlarge their horizons and discover the pleasures of doing things on their own is, on the other hand, a way to help children develop a confident feeling about themselves as capable and interesting people. Questions:(注意:答题尽量简短,超过10个词要扣分。每条横线限写一个英语单词,标点符号不占格。) 1.According to many parents, without TV, their children would like them to ____. 2.Many parents think that, instead of watching a lot of TV, their children should ____. 3.The father often blames his children for not being able to entertain themselves.
