Ⅳ. Reading Comprehension (30%)

Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 1

The human body naturally prevents attempt（企图）to lose or gain weight. Thus the best way to lower your weight is to do some exercise daily. Although scientists don’t agree exactly how this works to lower the “setpoint”, they do know that exercise helps your body work with you and not against you in at least the following ways:

1. Exercise burns calories（卡路里）: if you walk two miles every day, you use an extra 1400 calories a week － and lose about a pound in two weeks

2. Exercise helps to burn fat and build muscle: since muscle requires more calories than fat does, the more muscle you have, the faster you will burn calories.

3. Finally exercise speeds up your metabolism（新陈代谢）, not just while you’re exercising, but for several hours after exercise ends.

A program of light-to-moderate exercise done for only a half-hour a day is enough to keep your “setpoint” lowered, and thus helps you lose weight and keep it off. If you need to lose more than five pounds, combine regular exercise with a moderate reduction in calories until you reach your goal（目标）.

46. Scientists don’t _______.

A. believe in exercise at all

B. agree exercise helps to lower people’s weight

C. think exercise helps people’s bodies word against them

D. think exercise helps people’s bodies work with them

47. Exercise helps you .

A. save calories and gain weight B. save calories but lose weight

C. burn calories and lose weight D. burn calories but gain weight

48. When you walk .

A. slowly, the fat in your body increases B. fast, the fat in your body reduces

C. faster, you burn less calories D. less, you build more muscles

49. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A. A man of more muscles burns calories faster.

B. Exercise speeds up your metabolism even after it.

C. An hour and a half’s exercise is not enough to keep your “setpoint” lowered

D. To lose more than 5 pounds, just doing exercise is not enough

Passage 2

I rushed into an ugly little shop to have the heels（鞋后跟）of my shoes repaired. “Please hurry, ”I begged.

The shoemaker looked at me over his glasses. “Now, lady, we won’t be long. I want to do a good job. You see, I have a tradition（传统）to live up to. My father was a shoemaker. He always told me, ‘Son, do the best job on every shoe that comes into the shop, and be proud of you fine work.’”

As he handed me the finished shoes, he said, “These will last a long time.”

I left the shop with a warm and grateful（感激的）feeling. This was the beginning of our friendship. Since then I went into his shop very few days just to talk with him.

One day, I went in disappointed and angry because of a poor job some painters had done for me.

“They had no pride in their work,” I said. “They didn’t want to work. They just wanted to collect their money for doing nothing. What can be done about it”

“There’s only one way. Every man or woman who hasn’t a prideful tradition must start building one. No matter what sort of work a man does, if he gives it his best each day, he’s staring a tradition for his children to live up to. And he is making lots of happiness for himself.”

I went to Europe for a few months. When I returned, I learned that the old shoemaker suddenly had got sick two weeks ago, right there in his shop. He had died a few days later. I went home with a heavy heart. I would miss him. He had left me something － an important piece of wisdom（名言）I shall always remember: “If you have a prideful tradition, you must carry it on; if you have not, then start building one now.”

50. The old shoemaker thought to do his best in his work each day was .

A. to build a tradition for his children to be proud of

B. to start a tradition for himself to live up to

C. to make plenty of happiness for himself

D. to make lots of happiness for others

51. According to the old shoemaker’s opinion, if one didn’t do a good job, he .

A. just wanted to collect others’ money B. just wanted to do nothing

C. wasn’t proud of his work D. didn’t have a prideful tradition

52. The old shoemaker died .

A. a few months after the lady went to Europe

B. two weeks before the lady returned from Europe

C. only a few days before the lady returned from Europe

D. a few days after the lady returned from Europe

Passage 3

If you are writing or studying, it makes very much difference where the light comes from. People who use books and pens every day have to be especially careful about the way the light shines on their work.

Every house gets its light either from daylight through the windows — which is the very best to use — or from lamps or electricity; but whichever kind of light it is, the way it shines toward our book or work is a matter of great importance to the eyes.

Take a book, sit with your back toward the window, and try to read. Your shadow（影子）falls all over the page and makes it almost as had for your eyes as if you were in a dark room.

Now turn around and face the window. The page is in the shadow again, while the bright light is in your eyes.

Try sitting with you right side toward the window. This is very well for reading, but if you were writing, the shadow of your hand would fall across the page and bother（打搅）you a little.

There is just one other way: sit with your left side to the window. Now everything is perfect for reading and for writing, too.

Whatever kind of light is the room, the rule about the right to sit is always the same.

53. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. How the light shines on our work is of much importance.

B. The way the light shines on your work makes no difference.

C. We needn’t care about where the light comes from.

D. People can write or study under a light that comes from any direction.

54. You shouldn’t sit with your back towards the window because .

A. the light is too dark B. the light is bad for your eyes

C. you are in a dark room D. your book is in your shadow

55. When you sit with your face towards the window, .

A. your shadow falls on your book B. your book in is a shadow

C. the light is still dark D. the light is on your page

56. The best way both for reading and for writing is to .

A. sit facing the light B. let the light shine from your back

C. sit with your right side towards the light D. have the light come from your left

Passage 4

I grew up knowing I was different, and I hated it. When I started school my classmates made it clear to me how I must look to others: a little girl with an ugly lip. And I was deaf in one ear. I was sure that no one outside my family could love me. Then I entered Mrs. Leonard’s second -grade class.

Mrs. Leonard was round and pretty, with shining brown hair and dark smiling eyes. Everyone loved her. But no one came to love her more than I did. And for a special reason.

The time came for the annual（每年的）hearing test given at our school. The “whisper test” required each child to go to the classroom door, turn sideways, close one ear with a finger, while the teacher whispered something from the desk, which the child repeated. Then the same for the other car. The teacher usually whispered things like “The sky is blue.” or “Do you have new shoes?”

My time came. I turned my bad ear toward her, blocking the other just enough to be able to hear. I waited, and then came the words that God had surely put into her mouth, seven words that changed my life forever.

Mrs. Leonard, the teacher I loved, said softly, “I wish you were my little girl.”

57. Mrs. Leonard, the teacher, _______.

A. loved the little girl more than anybody else. B. loved the little girl while her parents didn’t

C. was loved by the little girl boy D. was loved by all the children in her class

58. In a “whisper test” every child was told to .

59. In the “whisper test” the little girl .

A. had her bad ear shut completely B. had her good ear shut completely

C. could hear the teacher with her good ear D. couldn’t hear the teacher at all

60. What the teacher whispered softly to the little girl .

Passage 1

The sea is very big. Look at a map of the world. There is less land than sea. The sea covers three quarters of the world.

The sea is very deep in some places. There is one spot, near Japan, where the sea is nearly 11 kilometres deep. The highest mountain in the world is about 9 kilometres high. If that mountain were put into the sea at that place, there would be 2 kilometres of water above it.

If you have swum in the sea, you know that it is salty. You can taste the salt. Rivers, which flow into the sea, carry salt from the land into the sea. Some parts of the sea are less salty than other parts. There is one sea, called the Dead Sea, which is very salty. Because it is very salty, swimmers cannot sink! Fish cannot live in the Dead Sea.

In most parts of the sea, there are plenty of fishes and plants. Some live near the top of the sea. Others live deep down. There are also millions of tiny living things that float in the sea. These floating things are very small. It is hard to see them. Many fish live by eating these.

The sea can be very cold. Divers, who dive deep down in the sea, know this. On the top the water may be warm. When the diver goes downwards, the sea becomes colder and colder.

Another thing happens. When the diver goes deeper, the water above presses down on him. It squeezes him. Then the diver has to wear clothes made of metal.

Passage 2

Karen MacInnes had spent nine months in the hospital. As she grew weaker, the 16-year-old girl asked her parents, “Am I going to die?”

Her mother told Karen the truth. After learning the bad news, all Karen wanted was to go home. Her parents decided to satisfy her wish — no matter that medical fund（基金）which had helped pay for Karen’s hospitalization, would not cover any of the full time medical care she would need at home. When she was carried through her front door, Karen smiled for the first time in months.

A friend of the MacInnes family, Sheila Petersen, knew of this and offered to help. She volunteered（自愿）not only to find nurse, but also to raise money for Karen’s car. Money was received from so many people that Sheila created（建立）a fund, “Friends of Karen”.

After leaving the hospital, Karen lived for 11 months. “And those months were happy ones for her,” says her mother, “thanks to Sheila.”

Even after Karen died, people kept sending money. Sheila put it into the fund, tried to find someone else who needed help. By last month, Friends of Karen was helping 70 families.

“I still have a relationship with each family,” says Sheila. “We have four children who are near death now, and I want to be there for them.” Sheila admits（承认）the work is sometimes difficult, but says, “the smile on a child’s face makes it all worthwhile（值得的）.”

50. The mother told Karen that she .

A. was going to die B. was going home C. was growing weak D. was becoming better

51. Her parents agreed to take Karen home because .

A. thus they would save money

B. medical funds wouldn’t cover any of the full time medical care

D. they hoped to make her satisfied

52. Sheila helped Karen’s parents by .

A. giving them money B. raising money from others

C. finding nurses for them D. paying for Karen’s hospitalisation

53. Karen lived for since she had fallen ill.

A. eleven months B. nine months C. twenty months D. twelve months

Passage 3

How Coney Island got its name remains a mystery, though people have found explanations from almost every stage of its history.

A written record came out in 1924. It says that the island was once the home of the Konoh people. The name Konoh was mispronounced and finally became “Coney.”

Another explanation finds the name connected with the arrival of Henry Hudson in New York Harbor in 1609. According to it, John Coleman, Hudson’s right-hand man, was killed by Indians. To honour him, people named the island after him.

The Dutch settled in Manhattan in 1624, and they came to Coney Island soon afterward. Since the Dutch word for rabbit（兔子）was konjin and the island had a large population of wild rabbits, many people have supposed this fact to have led to the name. There was a different story about the Dutch word. The Dutch fought the Indians there and were believed to have said that their enemies “ran like rabbits.”

According to an article in a magazine, an Irish captain named Peter O’ Connor sailed between New York and Ireland in the late 1700s, and he named Coney Island after an island that was close to his home in Ireland and of the same size as the American island.

Unfortunately, there is little evidence（证据）that the Dutch, or the English after them, used any word like “Coney” for several centuries. There is a lot of evidence, however, that the name Coney Island came into use in the first half of the 19th century, after a ferry（渡船）service to carry passengers from the island to the mainland.

54. According to the passage, the name Coney _______.

A. was mispronounced by the Konoh people

B. was given by a man called John Coleman

C. comes from an island close to the English coast

D. is close in pronunciation to a Dutch word

55. The writer believes that the name Coney Island most probably _______.

A. has a history of less than 200 years

B. came into use several hundred years ago

C. was used first by the English, not the Dutch

D. is related to the sail from New York to Ireland

56. From the passage we know that the word mystery means something _______.

A. that history books keep a record of

B. people have found explanations for

C. that has not been known enough about

D. people have not yet thought about

57. It is said that John Coleman _______.

A. used his right hand better than the left one

B. was an important assistant of Henry Hudson

C. killed many Indians in battles in 1609

D. was the first man to reach the island

Passage 4

Since the mid-1800s we have known that all living things are made up of cells. A cell is the smallest unit that can carry on all of the activities of life.

In some ways, a cell is like a submarine（潜水艇）. A submarine has a tough outer surface, which wraps around the complex machinery that makes the submarine function（活动）. A cell is also filled with complex（复杂的）machinery and has a tough outer surface, which is called the cell membrane（膜）. The cell membrane serves the same purpose as the outer surface of a submarine. It separates what is insides from what is outside. Nothing gets into or out of the submarine except through the hatches（舱口）, and nothing gets into or out of a cell except through “gates” in its cell membrane.

What can be said about cell first? It is that they are very small. Your body has about 100 trillion（万亿）cells. If these cells were each the size of a shoe box and were lined up end to end, they would stretch（伸展）in a line about 30 billion km (18.6 billion miles) — to the sun and back 100 times! So cells must be pretty small to fill that many into your body.

Every bit of food and information needed by the cell must enter through the cell membrane. When cells are small, no part of their complex machinery lies too far from the area outside the cell. If a cell were larger, fewer of its inner structures（构造）could be near the cell membrane. That is bad for just the same reason that long supply lines are bad for an army — too many things could go wrong and responses（反映）to information would be too slow. Thus, small cells work better because their supply lines are short.

As a cell grows, it takes in more food and produces more wastes. Since these must pass into and out of the “gates” in the cell membrane, the membrane must be large enough to service the cell’s needs. As the cell grows, so does its membrane. But cells cannot grow indefinitely（不确定地）. So what limits cell size?

It is the relationship between the surface area and the volume of the cell. As a cell grows, its volume increases at a much faster rate（速度）than its surface area. A small cell has enough surface area to meet its needs. But a large cell might not. The ratio（比）of a cell’s surface area to its volume limits how large that cell can become. Cells cannot grow so large that their surface areas become too small to take in enough food and to remove enough wastes.

58. A cell is the smallest unit .

A. that all living things are made up of

B. that can carry on all of the activities

C. that is a submarine in our body

D. that has cell membrane

59. The cell membrane .

A. is the outer surface of a submarine

B. serves the same purpose as the outer surface of a submarine

C. separates what is inside a submarine from what is outside a submarine

D. prevents everything from getting into or out of a cell

60. Cells are very small, so .

A. food and information needed by the cell can enter through the membrane

B. their complex machinery lies too far from the area outside it

C. their inner structures are near the cell membrane

D. their supply lines are as long as those of an army.

Passage 1

During the Crimean War in 1854 many soldiers were wounded or became ill. News reached England that they were receiving very little care. At once Florance Nightingale wrote to the War Office and offered her service. She went with a band（一队）of thirty-eight nurses to the hospitals at Scutari.

What they saw there was even worse than they expected. Dirt and death were everywhere to be seen － and smelled. The officer there did not want any women to tell him how to run a hospital, either. But the brave nurses went to work.

Florance used her own money and some from friends to buy clothes, beds, medicines, and food for the men. Her only pay was in smiles from the lips of dying soldiers. But they were more than enough for this kind woman.

She fell dangerously ill herself, but she did not stop working. Her thin hands worked day and night. Even in the last hours of the night she could be seen working with a lamp past each bed. The soldiers often kissed her shadow as “the lady of the lamp” went by.

46. During the Crimean War .

A. nobody cared for the wounded soldiers B. Florance and her lady-fellows nursed them

C. she never stopped working by her lamp D. she always worked into late night with a lamp

Passage 2

Ben Carson, a doctor at Johns Hopkins Children’s Centre, talks about how he grew up in a poor Detroit neighbourhood, when peer（同龄人）pressure almost controlled his behaviour and even his clothes. He wanted so badly to be considered cool that he begged his mother to buy him an expensive Italian shirt.

“My mother made me a deal,” Carson remembers. “She said, ‘I’ll give all the money I make next week. You’ll be in charge of the family finance（财务）— buying food and other necessities and paying the bills. Whatever you have left over you can spend on whatever you want.’”

“I thought, this is going to be great,” Carson says. “I bought things we needed most and then began going through the bills. Of course I ran completely out of money long before everything was paid.”

“Then I realized my mother, with her third-grade education, was a financial genius（理财能手）” — just to keep food on our table and clothes on our backs with such a small sum of money. I’d been a fool. I wanted her to buy me a $ 75 shirt when she only took home $ 100 a week, cleaning other people’s floors and washing their toilets. I took a hard look at my behaviour and wondered how I could be so selfish.

“I started studying again. My grades went back up to A’s. Some of my peers laughed at me because I did not follow their pattern. But I refused to let that trouble me, because I had a goal.”

The experience had a lasting effect. “I not only saw and felt the difference my mother made in my life, I am living out that difference as a man.”

50. When Ben Carson was young, he _______.

A. wanted to be as cool as other boys of his age B. tried to attract girls with his cool manner

C. was fond of improving family finances D. was seldom good at his lessons

51. By saying “My mother made me a deal”, Ben Carson meant his mother _______.

A. refused to buy him the shirt B. made an agreement with him

C. asked him to deal with the problem D. showed him how to save money

52. Ben Carson’s story tells us that _______.

A. a boy should not learn from his peers

B. he didn’t understand his mother as a boy

C. what his mother taught him has changed his life

D. people with little education may become a genius

Passage 3

Eating disorders（混乱）is very common now. “When I first wrote about this, the problem was pretty much hidden… I didn’t expect it to get as bad it is,” Susie Orbach, an international authority（权威）on eating disorders, said.

Orbach must at times think the anti-diet message of her book “Fat in a Feminist（女权主义的）Issue（问题）” has been lost since it was written more than 20 years ago.

Girls, boys, old people — even the famously well-rounded female（女性）population of Fiji is falling victim（牺牲品）to fat fears.

“If anything, the situation has got much, much worse. We now have kids as young as eight and women in old people’s homes worried about the way they look.” Orbach said.

Even though it has been proved that repeated dieting results in a little more than regaining most of the lost weight, constant dieting（节食）has become a way of life for many women. 48 per cent of British women aged 25 to 35 were on some kind of diet and that 20 per cent of young women dieted all or most of time. Some of them said they would pop a pill to give them their beautiful shape, even if it meant risking their health.

Worldwide, 70 million people have an eating disorder. Most are women, but men are increasingly affected, too.

More than half the women and two-thirds of the men in Britain weigh too much, while in the United States more than one quarter of adults and about one in five children are overweight. The idea that female beauty is a very thin body could be changed, if clothing factories and magazines showed images（形象）of women of all shapes instead of selecting skeletal-like models and stick-actresses.

But that is easier said than done.

To get her message across, Orbach is also considering talking to pop stars such as Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell, both of whom have admitted（承认）having suffered from eating disorders.

53. According to Susie Orbach, .

A. nobody had suffered from eating disorders 20 years before

B. eating disorders had become much commoner than before

C. eating disorders shouldn’t have become so common as it was

D. Victoria Beckham and Geri Halliwell hadn’t suffered from eating disorders

54. Why did people fear being fat? Because .

A. fat was a Feminist Issue

B. girls, boys, old people were falling victim of fat fear

C. even the famously well-rounded women of Fiji were falling victim of fat fear

D. they worried about the may they looked

55. Even if repeated dieting results in more than regaining most of the lost weight, in Britain .

A. forty-eight per cent of old women were on some kind of diet

B. women aged twenty-five to thirty-five dieted all or most of time

C. twenty per cent of young women dieted all or most of time

D. all the people were risking their health to get their beautiful shape

56. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?

A. Seventy million people have an eating disorder in the world.

B. More than 1/2 of the women and 2/3 of the men in Britain have weight problem.

C. More than 1/4 of adults and 1/5 of children in USA weigh too much.

D. Clothing factories and magazines showed images of women of all shape.

Passage 4

One night, a little before nine o’clock, Dr. Van Eyck answered his telephone.

“Ｗe have a very sick boy here. We should operate at once. But we haven’t got a surgeon（外科医生）here at the time.”

“I’m 60 miles from your hospital,” said Dr. Van Eyck. “And it’s snowing here. But I’ll try to get there before 12 o’clock.”

“I should tell you that the boy’s family is very poor. I don’t think that they can pay you anything.”

“That’s all right.” said Dr. Van Eyck.

A few minutes later, the doctor’s car had to stop for a red light. A man in an old black coat opened the door of the car and got in.

“Drive on,” he said. “I’ve got a gun.”

“I’m a doctor,” said Van Eyck. “I’m on my way to the hospital to operate on a very sick…”

“Don’t talk, just drive.”

A mile out of town he ordered the doctor to stop the car and get out. Then the man drove on down the road. The doctor stood there for a moment in the falling sow.

It was after two o’clock in the morning when the surgeon arrived at the hospital.

“I did my best,” said Dr. Van Eyck, “but I was stopped on the road and my car…”

“It was good of you to try. The boy died an hour ago.”

He walked by the door of the hospital waiting room. There sat the man in the old black coat, with his head in his hands.

“Mr. Cunningham,” said a nurse to the man, “this is Dr. Van Eyck. He is the surgeon who came all the way from his town to try to save your boy.”

57. The doctor was late because .

A. it was snowing hard all he way B. he lived 60 miles away from the hospital

C. his car was stopped on the road D. his car was driven away by someone

58. The very sick boy who needed to be operated on couldn’t have died if .

A. it wasn’t snowing that night

B. the doctor hadn’t stopped for that red light

C. the doctor had arrived at one o’clock in the morning

D. the man in the old black coat had known the doctor

59. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?

B. Mr. Cunningham was the man in an old black coat

C. Mr. Cunningham robbed the doctor of his car

D. Mr. Cunningham took the doctor’s car as his own

60. The man in an old black coat got into the doctor’s car .

My Hometown

My hometown is a small village. There was a river flowing right through its centre. Trees were planted on both sides of the river. People, especially children, often swam in the river in summer. The village used to be a very beautiful place.

On the hills to the north there used to be a big forest. But in order to build houses and grow crops the villagers cut down all the trees in the past three years. The forest was destroyed and the green hills changed into wasteland. The river gradually dried up. People can’t water their fields with water pumped form the river. Crops become poorer and poorer. Now people are suffering form what they have done.

Dear Sirs,

I read your advertisement in yesterday’s paper. I think I am the best person fit for the position.

I’m 23 years old. I graduated from Boston University two years ago. My major at university was computer engineering. After graduation I worked as a computer engineer in a big company for two years. Now I have enough experience in this field. And I’m very interested in it.

I like sports and I am in good health. I like hard work. I’m sure I can do your job well if I can become a member of your company.

I’m looking forward to your reply.

Sincerely yours,

Matt Hand
