Part II. Reading Comprehension (30 points)
Directions: There are nine passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question 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 center. Passage 1
Most of the big towns in Eastern Europe have seen a large increase in population over the last 30 years. This has caused extreme housing shortages, and the vast majority of people living in towns rent flats. By western
standards, the flats are rather small, with a family of four living in two-or three-room flat with kitchen or bathroom. But compared with Western Europe, the
rents are extremely low.
An Eastern European spends on average about 5 percent of his income on

On the other hand, the Eastern European spends a higher percentage of his income on food. Whereas basic items such as bread are very cheap, other things like meat and coffee are extremely expensive.

Moreover, Eastern Europe does not suffer from one of the major problems of Western Europe?s economy―unemployment. All the constitutions of the individual countries state that every citizen has a right and duty to work.
91. The serious housing shortage in big towns of Eastern Europe have been caused mainly by________. C. an increase in population
92. According to the passage, the rents in Western Europe ____. A. are rather high

95. Which of the following is not true? D. Western Europe does not suffer from one of the serious problems of Eastern Europe?s economy. Passage 2 Psychologists now believe that noise has a considerable effect on people?s attitudes and behavior. Experiments have proved that in noisy situations (even temporary ones), people behave more irritably and less cooperatively; in more permanent noisy situations, many people cannot work hard, and they suffer from severe anxiety as well as other psychological problems.
However, psychologists distinguish between “sound” and “noise”.
“Sound” is measured physically in decibels. “Noise” cannot be measured in the same way because it refers to the psychological effect of sound and its
