Part I Reading Comprehension (20小题,每小题2分,共40)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 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 One

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.

       People and the sources of air pollution are found in the same place. This means that cities with large population have the biggest problem of dirty air. Air pollution is caused by many different things. A major source of air pollution is the gas fumes (烟尘) from cars. Another major source of dirty air is the burning of coal and oil for energy. This energy is needed to make electricity. Of course, much more electricity is used in the city than in the country.

On the average, we throw away trash and garbage than years before. The burning of garbage leads to air pollution. Many major industries are also the cause of the dirty air in and around cities. The fumes from iron, steel, chemical, and petroleum production add particles (粉尘) to the air.

The effects of air pollution range from mild headaches to death. The levels of pollution found in heavy traffic may cause headaches or loss of clear sight. Wherever coal and oil are used for fuel, fumes may kill trees and plants. In some of the larger cities, these fumes endanger the lives of human beings by leading to lung diseases and causing early deaths.

Passage Two

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.

Everyone has got two personalities --- the one that is shown to the world and the other that is secret and real. You don’t show your secret personality when you’re awake because you can control your behavior, but when you’re asleep, your sleeping position shows the real you. In a normal night, of course, people frequently change their position. The important position is the one that you go to sleep in.

If you go to sleep on your back, you’re a very open person. You normally trust people and you are easily influenced by fashion or new ideas. You don’t like to upset people, so you never express your real feelings.

If you sleep on your stomach, you are a rather secretive (深藏不露的) person. You worry a lot and you’re always easily upset. You’re very stubborn (顽固的), but you aren’t very ambitious. You usually live for today not for tomorrow. This means that you enjoy having a good time.

If you sleep curled up (蜷缩), you are probably a very nervous person. You have a low opinion of yourself and so you’re often defensive. You’re shy and you don’t normally like meeting people. You prefer to be on your own. You’re easily hurt.

If you sleep on your side, you have usually got a well-balanced personality. You know your strengths and weaknesses. You’re usually careful. You have a confident personality. You sometimes feel anxious, but you don’t often get depressed. You always say what you think even if it annoys people.

6. According to the writer, you naturally show your secret and real personality ______.

      A. in a normal night                                      B. when you are asleep

      C. when you are daydreaming                        D. when you refuse to show yourself

Passage Three

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.

Steve and Yaser first met in their chemistry class at an American university. Yaser was an international student from Jordan. He wanted to learn more about American culture. Yaser hoped that he and Steve would become good friends.

At first, Steve seemed very friendly. He always greeted Yaser warmly before class. Sometimes he offered to study with Yaser. He even invited Yaser to eat lunch with him. But after the semester was over, Steve seemed more distant. The two former classmates didn’t see each other very much at school. One day Yaser was hurt by Steve’s change of attitude; he thought they were friends forever.

Yaser is a little confused. He is an outsider to American culture. He doesn’t understand the way Americans view friendship. Americans use the word “friend” in a very general way. They may call both casual acquaintance (相识的人) and close companions (伴侣) “friends”. Americans have school friends, work friends, sports friends and neighborhood friends. These friendships are based on common interests. When the shared activity ends, the friendship may fade.

In some cultures friendship means a strong life-long bond (关系) between two people. In these cultures friendships develop slowly, since they are built to last. American society is one of rapid change. Studies show that one of five American families move frequently. Americans develop friendship quickly, and they may change just as quickly.

People from theUnited Statesmay at first seem friendly. Americans often chat easily with strangers. They may smile warmly and say, “Have a nice day” or “See you later.” Schoolmates may say, “Let’s get together sometime.” But American friendliness is not always an offer of true friendship.

11. Where did Steve and Yaser first meet?

      A. In their history class.                                            B. In their English class.

      C. In their chemistry class.                                        D. In their Chinese class.

12. What is the style of American friendship?

      A. Americans value strong life-long friendship.                                      

      B. American friendship is not a life-long one.

      C. Americans develop friendship slowly.

      D. Americans do not make friends with strange people.

13. The word “fade” (Para. 3) probably means ______.

      A. disappear gradually                                               B. increase sharply

      C. become close                                                       D. last forever

14. In the eyes of Americans, Steve and Yaser are ______.

      A. neighborhood friends                                            B. classmates for ever

      C. sports friends                                                      D. school friends

15. “Let’s get together sometime” (Para. 5) is a way to ______.

      A. be just friendly                                                     B. learn from each other

      C. care about each other                                           D. be unfriendly

Passage Four

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.

Newspapers, along with reporting the news, educate, entertain, and give opinions. An important way for reading a large, big-city newspaper is knowing how to take it apart. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, classified advertisements? Does your paper have other sections?

News stories give facts, not the author’s opinions. Editorials (社论) do the opposite; you can expect an editorial to take sides. Some newspaper editorials have a by-line with the author’s name, but many newspapers have unsigned (未署名的) editorials. These reflect the opinions of the publisher or editor.

You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper. For example, you can expect headlines to omit unnecessary words. You can expect to find the most important facts in the first paragraph of a news story. You can expect important news items to be on the front page. You can expect less important items to be on the inside pages.

Most of all, the more you know about current news, the more you will understand what is in the newspaper; important stories are generally presented one day and followed up on the following days. So, an important way for reading newspapers is reading one frequently.

16. When reading a large newspaper, one should ______.

       A. read it from cover to cover

       B. do some paper-cutting

       C. find separate sections

       D. predict what is inside the newspaper

17. Which of the following statements about news stories is TRUE?

       A. News stories tell the facts without any comments.

       B. News stories contain both facts and opinions.

       C. News stories reflect the opinions of the publisher and editor.

       D. News stories express the writers’ opinion.

18. If you expect the most important facts of a news story, you can go to ______.

       A. the first paragraph

       B. news items on each page

       C. the author’s opinions on the front pages

       D. the headlines on the inside pages
