Passage One

When I was studying English at a training center in Washington D.C. in 1998, I shared a house with two young Americans, Jim and Steve. Jim was studying French and Steve Chinese, both at the Foreign Service Institute. We shared many things in common, but we also thought and acted quite differently. Steve was interested in speaking Chinese. He always tried every opportunity to talk with me with his very English-like pronunciation. I was often touched by his diligence. However, I wanted to practice English with him, too. So we often spoke at the same time in the other's mother tongue. Jim was fresh from college and the youngest of the three. He was going out all the time. The only time we met was at breakfast. There was a small round table in our kitchen, where we sat around to enjoy our food. Steve had Chinese fast food such as dumplings or noodles, and I ate bread and boiled eggs. But Jim often just drank a cup of tea because he had nothing in his fridge. He was too busy dating pretty French girls to do any shopping. I often offered him some of my food. But Steve told me in his poor Chinese that I didn't need to do that. He said that it was Jim's own fault and that it served him right. Although he was learning Chinese, he still held his American sense of values.

Two years later, I returned to China. The three of us still keep in touch. Jim now works in a travel agency in Paris. He got married to one of the pretty girls. He wrote to tell us that he can now enjoy a delicious breakfast with his beautiful wife every morning in their comfortable living room. Steve wants to work in China. And I'm helping him with this. I have introduced him to the dean of the Oversea Section of our university. He is very interested in

Steve. He wants to know if Steve can work here teaching the oversea students Chinese. I have sent the message to Steve. I'm sure he'd be very happy to accept the job. However, I hope he could try harder to improve himself. Otherwise, all the overseas students would speak with his terrible pronunciation!

61. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A、The three of them were all language majors. B、Steve and Jim were more alike in character. C、The author didn't enjoy talking with Steve. D、Their living condition was rather poor. 62. What is the author's opinion of Steve? A、Steve was a very hardworking fellow. B、Steve enjoyed cooking Chinese food. C、Steve enjoyed shopping more than Jim. D、Steve's Chinese accent was quite pure. 63. Which of the following is TRUE about Jim? A、Going out with girls cost him a lot of time. B、He had a French way of making friends.

C、He learned French in order to date Paris girls. D、He liked doing housework.

64. The last sentence of the first paragraph implies that______ . A、Steve didn't like offering help to others B、American people only eat their own food

C、American and Chinese differ in their sense of values D、Steve wanted Jim to do his own shopping

65. From the last paragraph, we can learn that _____. A、Jim is a very good husband B、Steve enjoys teaching Chinese

C、the author works for overseas students D、the three friends still keep in touch

Passage Two

How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told what to do and what not to do. Therefore, a child is not as happy as he wishes to be.

When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from the discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room, he has to work if he wants to live comfortably.

If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself into trouble. If, however, he works hard, goes by the law and has good health, he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.

Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be, but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life, they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving everything to others.

66. The happiest people should be those who ______. A、face up to difficulties in life B、hope to be young again C、enjoy life in different ages D、wish to grow up

67. The underlined word “they” in Para. 2 refers to_____ . A、older people B、new things C、children D、interests

68. A child has his pains because_____ . A、he can not do whatever he wants to B、he is not allowed to play in rain C、he has a lot of new things to learn D、he can not play at the seaside freely

69. When a child becomes a grown-up, he is supposed to _______. A、live comfortably B、take responsibilities C、make progress in jobs D、impress the society

70. The best title of the passage might be _______. A、Pains and Ages B、Differences in Ages C、The Best Age to Be D、Happiness and Ages

Passage Three

Life really should be one long journey of joy for children who are born with a world of wealth at their tiny feet. But experts on psychological research now believe that silver spoons can leave a bitter taste. If suicide statistics are a sign of happiness, then the rich are a miserable lot. Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves.

Dr. Robert Coles, an internationally famous doctor, is the world's top expert on the influence of money on children. He has written a well-received book on the subject, The

Privileged Ones, and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little. “Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich,” says the 53-year-old doctor, “such as better health, education and future work expectation, but most important is the quality of family life. Money can't buy love.”

It can buy a lot of other things, though, and that's where the trouble starts. Rich kids have so much to choose from that they often become confused. Their parents' over favoring can make them spoiled. They tend to travel more than other children, from home to home and country to country, which often makes them feel restless.

“But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world,” adds Mr. Coles, “and they are more self-assured.”

Today's rich parents perhaps have realized that their riches can be more of a burden than a favor to their children. So their priority is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.

71. According to the passage, children of rich families _______. A、enjoy traveling B、can buy love

C、usually commit suicide D、are not always happy

72. Dr. Robert Coles believes that ______.

A、being rich has as many advantages as being poor B、rich children often get too little entertainment

C、rich children sometimes can't enjoy the thing they are most in need of D、rich children aren't given enough things

73. Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage? A、It is love that is always lacking in rich and poor families alike. B、Silver spoons can sometimes leave a bitter taste. C、Money can't buy everything.

D、Rich children are often confused because they have so much to choose from. 74. The expression “silver spoons” in Paragraph 1 means_____ . A、very expensive spoons B、rich people C、wealth

D、spoons made of silver

75. This article is written mainly to tell readers that _______. A、the rich are more likely to do away with themselves B、money can bring a lot of things, including love C、life is always happy for children of rich parents

D、rich parents should realize what is important in the family is love rather than money

Passage Four

Charlene, a 16-year-old student at a high school, found herself faced with a maths test to which she knew none of the answers. Rather than fail, she took the test out with her and filled in the answers with the help of her friends. During a break, she got back into the classroom without being seen, crumpled(揉皱) the test with her shoe, and left it lying on the floor. The teacher thought it had been dropped when the tests were collected; she corrected

it, and Charlene received a B.

Cheating is, of course, nothing new. But today, educators are finding that cheating on the part of students has become more frequent than in the past. Whether it is copying a friend's homework, using a prepared sheet on an exam, stealing advance copies of a final, writing down rules in one's hand, or paying someone else to write a term paper, cheating appears to have gained acceptance among a growing number of students between 13 and 19.

In a 1978 study of cheating at twenty-two high schools in Georgia, it was found that cheating was common among good and poor students alike—although both boys and girls said they thought boys cheated more.

Why is student cheating on the rise? No one really knows. Some blame cheating on a general loss of good values among today's youth. They point to facts showing increased damage of public things and school stealing and think that reports, such as Watergate(水门事件), have disappointed youth about the honesty of people in higher position.

Others think that today's youth are far more practical than their forefathers(先辈). In the late sixties and early seventies, students were filled with imaginations about changing the world, but today's students feel great stress to succeed.

76. According to Paragraph 1, Charlene took the test out because ______. A、her friends could answer none of the problems B、she tore the test paper to pieces

C、she stepped her shoes on the test paper D、she did not want to fail in the maths test 77. Charlene passed the test because ______. A、she answered all the questions by herself B、she did the test by cheating

C、she persuaded her teacher to give her a B D、she returned to the classroom to redo the test

78. Which of the following is not an example to show that cheating is becoming more and more common?

A、A student pays another for doing a test paper.

B、A student writes down something to be tested before an exam. C、A student gets well prepared in his studies before an exam.

D、A student gets homework from his classmate and then copies it. 79. The 1978 study of cheating in Georgia shows that______ .

A、only students in the 24 high schools cheated in examinations B、both good and poor students cheated in examinations C、more girls cheated in examinations than boys did D、boys like cheating while girls do not like it

80. One of the facts for the general loss of good values among today's youth is that_____ . A、more and more public things are damaged B、good values disappoint students

C、more and more students begin to steal D、honest people are in higher positions 四、翻译题(每小题2分,共20分)
