Each passage is followed by
some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them 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
centre.　　Passage One　　Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.　　On average, American kids ages 3 to 12 spent 29 hours a week in school,
eight hours more that they did in 1981. They also did more household work and
participated in more of such organized activities as soccer and ballet (芭蕾舞).
Involvement in sports, in particular, rose almost 50% from 1981 to 1997: boys
now spend an average of four hours a girls log hall that
time. All in all, however, children's leisure time dropped from 40% of the day
in 1981 to 25%.　　&Children are affected by the same time crunch (危机) that affects their
parents,& says Sandra Hofferth, who headed the recent study of children's
timetable. A chief reason, she says, is that more mothers are working outside
the home. (Nevertheless, children in both double-income and &male breadwinner&
households spent comparable amounts of time interacting with their parents.19
hours and 22 hours respectively. In contrast, children spent only 9 hours with
their single mothers.)　　All work and no play could make for some very messed-up kids. &Play is the
most powerful way a child explores the world and learns about himself,& says T.
Berry Brazelton, professor at Harvard Medical School Unstructured play
encourages independent thinking and allows the young to negotiate their
relationships with their peers, but kids ages 3 to 12 spent only 12 hours a week
engaged in it.　　The children sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing &free
time& watching television. But that, believe it or not, was one of the findings
parents might regard as good news. If they're spending less time in front of the
TV set, however, kids aren't replacing it with reading. Despite efforts to get
kids more interested in books, the children spent just over an hour a week
reading. Let's face it, who's got the time?　　21. By mentioning &the same time crunch& (Line 1, Para. 2) Sandra Hofferth
means _________.　　A) children have little time to play with their parents　　B) children are not taken good care of by their working parents　　C) both parents and children suffer from lack of leisure time　　D) both parents and children have trouble managing their time　　22. According to the author, the reason given by Sandra Hofferth for the
time crunch is _________.　　A) quite convincing　　B) partially true　　C) totally groundless　　D) rather confusing　　23. According to the author a child develops better if _________.　　A) he has plenty of time reading and studying　　B) he is left to play with his peers in his own way　　C) he has more time participating in school activities　　D) he is free to interact with his working parents　　24. The author is concerned about the fact that American kids
_________.　　A) are engaged in more and more structured activities　　B) are increasingly neglected by their working mothers　　C) are spending more and more time watching TV　　D) are involved less and less in household work　　25. We can infer from the passage that _________.　　A) extracurricular activities promote children's intelligence　　B) most children will turn to reading with TV sets switched off　　C) efforts to get kids interested in reading have been fruitful　　D) most parents believe reading to be beneficial to children　　Passage Two　　Questions 26 to :30 are based on the following passage.　　Henry Ford, the famous U.S. inventor and car manufacturer, once said, &The
business of America is business.& By this he meant that the U.S. way of life is
based on the values of the business world.　　Few would argue with Ford's statement. A brief glimpse at a daily newspaper
vividly shows how much people in the United States think about business. For
example, nearly every newspaper has a business section, in which the deals and
projects, finances and management, stock prices and labor problems of
corporations are reported daily. In addition, business news can appear in every
other section. Most national news has an important financial aspect to it.
Welfare, foreign aid, the federal budget, and the policies of the Federal
Reserve Bank are all heavily affected by business. Moreover, business news
appears in some of the unlikeliest places. The world of arts and entertainment
is often referred to as &the entertainment industry& or &show business.&　　The positive side of Henry Ford's statement can be seen in the prosperity
that business has brought to U.S. life. One of the most important reasons so
many people from all over the world come to live in the United States is the
dream of a better job. Jobs are produced in abundance (大量地) because the U.S.
economic system is driven by competition. People believe that this system crates
more wealth, more jobs, and a materially better way of life.　　The negative side of Henry Ford's statement, however, can be seen when the
word business is taken to mean big business. And the term big business --
referring to the biggest companies, is seen in opposition to labor. Throughout
U.S. history working people have had to fight hard for higher wages, better
working conditions, and the fight to form unions. Today, many of the old labor
disputes are over, but there is still some employee anxiety. Downsizing ---- the
laying off of thousands of workers to keep expenses low and profits high --
creates feelings of insecurity for many.　　26. The United States is a typical country _________.　　A) which encourages free trade at home and abroad　　B) where people's chief concern is how to make money　　C) where all businesses are managed scientifically　　D) which normally works according to the federal budget　　27. The influence of business in the U.S. is evidenced by the fact that
_________.　　A) most newspapers are run by big businesses　　B) even public organizations concentrate on working for profits　　C) Americans of all professions know how to do business　　D) even arts and entertainment are regarded as business　　28. According to the passage, immigrants choose to settle in the U.S.,
dreaming that _________.　　A) they can start profitable businesses there　　B) they can be more competitive in business　　C) they will make a fortune overnight there　　D) they will find better chances of employment　　29. Henry Ford's statement can be taken negatively because _________.　　A) working people are discouraged to fight for their fights　　B) there are many industries controlled by a few big capitalists　　C) there is a conflicting relationship between big corporations and
labor　　D) public services are not run by the federal government　　30. A company's efforts to keep expenses low and profits high may result in
_________.　　A) reduction in the number of employees　　B) improvement of working conditions　　C) fewer disputes between labor and management　　D) a rise in workers' wages　　Passage Three　　Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.　　Professor Smith recently persuaded 35 people, 23 of them women, to keep a
diary of all their absent-minded actions for a fortnight. When he came to
analyse their embarrassing lapses ( 差错) in a scientific report, he was surprised
to find that nearly all of them fell into a few groupings, Nor did the lapses
appear to be entirely random (随机的).　　One of the women, for instance, on leaving her house for work one morning
threw her dog her earrings and tried to fix a dog biscuit on her ear. “the
explanation for this is that the brain is like a computer,” explains the
professor. &People programme themselves to do certain activities regularly. It
was the woman's custom every morning to throw her dog two biscuits and then put
on her earrings. But somehow the action got reversed in the programme,& About
one in twenty of the incidents the volunteers reported were these &programme
assembly failures,&　　Altogether the volunteers logged 433 unintentional actions that they found
themselves doing -- an average of twelve each, There appear to be peak periods
in the day when we are at our zaniest (荒谬可笑的). These are two hours some time
between eight a.m. and noon, between four and six p.m. with a smaller peak
between eight and ten p.m. &Among men the peak seems to be when a changeover in
brain 'programmes' occurs, as for instance between going to and from work.&
Women on average reported slightly more lapses -- 12.5 compared with 10.9 for
men m probably because they were more reliable reporters.　　A startling finding of the research is that the absent-minded activity is a
hazard of doing things in which we are skilled. Normally, you would expect that
skill reduces the number of errors we make. But trying to avoid silly slips by
concentrating more could make things a lot worse m even dangerous.　　31. In his study Professor Smith asked the subjects _________.　　A) to keep track of people who tend to forget things　　B) to report their embarrassing lapses at random　　C) to analyse their awkward experiences scientifically　　D) to keep a record of what they did unintentionally　　32. Professor Smith discovered that _________.　　A) certain patterns can be identified in the recorded incidents　　B) many people were too embarrassed to admit their absent-mindedness　　C) men tend to be more absent-minded than women　　D) absent-mindedness is an excusable human weakness　　33. &Programme assembly failures& (Line 6, Para. 2) refers to the
phenomenon that people _________.　　A) often fail to programme their routines beforehand　　B) tend to make mistakes when they are in a hurry　　C) unconsciously change the sequence of doing things　　D) are likely to mess things up if they are too tired　　34. We learn from the third paragraph that _________.　　A) absent-mindedness tends to occur during certain hours of the day　　B) women are very careful to perform actions during peak periods　　C) women experience more peak periods of absent-mindedness　　D) men's absent-mindedness often results in funny situations　　35. It can be concluded from the passage that _________.　　A) people should avoid doing important things during peak periods of
lapses　　B) hazards can be avoided when people do things they are good at　　C) people should be careful when programming their actions　　D) lapses cannot always be attributed to lack of concentration　　Passage Four　　Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.　　It's no secret that many children would be healthier and happier with
adoptive parents than with the parents that nature dealt them. That's especially
true of children who remain in abusive homes because the law blindly favors
biological parents. It's also true of children who suffer for years in foster
homes (收养孩子的家庭) because of parents who can't or won't care for them but refuse
to give up custody (监护) rights.　　Fourteen-year-old Kimberly Mays fits neither description, but her recent
court victory could eventually help children who do. Kimberly has been the
object of an angry custody baffle between the man who raised her and her
biological parents, with whom she has never lived. A Florida judge ruled that
the teenager can remain with the only father she's ever known and that her
biological parents have &no legal claim& on her.　　The ruling, though it may yet be reversed, sets aside the principle that
biology is the primary determinant of parentage. That's an important
development, one that's long overdue.　　Shortly after birth in December 1978, Kimberly Mays and another infant were
mistakenly switched and sent home with the wrong parents. Kimberly's biological
parents, Ernest and Regina Twigg, received a child who died of a heart disease
in 1988. Medical tests showed that the child wasn't the Twiggs' own daughter,
but Kimt only was, thus sparking a custody battle with Robert Mays. In 1989, the
two families agreed that Mr. Mays would maintain custody with the Twiggs getting
visiting fights. Those rights were ended when Mr. Mays decided that Kimberly was
being harmed.　　The decision to leave Kimberly with Mr. Mays rendered her suit debated. But
the judge made clear that Kimberly did have standing to sue ( 起诉) on her own
behalf. Thus he made clear that she was more than just property to be handled as
adults saw fit.　　Certainly, the biological link between parent and child is fundamental. But
biological parents aren't always preferable to adoptive ones, and biological
parentage does not convey an absolute ownership that cancels all the rights of
children.　　36. What was the primary consideration in the Florida judge's ruling?　　A) The biological link.　　B) The child's benefits.　　C) The traditional practice.　　D) The parents' feelings.　　37. We can learn from the Kimberly case that _________.　　A) children are more than just personal possessions of their parents　　B) the biological link between parent and child should be emphasized　　C) foster homes bring children more pain and suffering than care　　D) biological parents shouldn't claim custody rights after their child is
adopted　　38. The Twiggs claimed custody rights to Kimberly because _________.　　A) they found her unhappy in Mr. Mays' custody　　B) they regarded her as their property　　C) they were her biological parents　　D) they felt guilty about their past mistake　　39. Kimberly had been given to Mr. Mays _________.　　A) by sheer accident　　B) out of charity　　C) at his request　　D) for better care　　40. The author's attitude towards the judge's ruling could be described as
_________.　　A) doubtful　　B) critical　　C) cautious　　D) supportive　　Part III Vocabulary (20 minutes)　　Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part. For each

incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or
complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Write your answers in the
spaces provided on the right of the page.　　What personal qualities are desirable in a teacher? I think the following
would be generally accepted.　　First, the teacher's personality should be lively and attractive. This does
not rule out people who are plain-looking, or even ugly, because many such
people have great personal charm. But it does rule out such types as the
over-excitable, sad, cold, and frustrated.　　Secondly, it is not merely desirable but essential for a teacher to have a
genuine capacity for sympathy, a capacity to understand the minds and feelings
of other people, especially, since most teachers are school teachers, the minds
and feelings of children. Closely related with this is the capacity to be
tolerant -- not, indeed, of what is wrong, but of the weaknesses and immaturity
of human nature which induce ( i)~ ) people, and again especially children, to
make mistakes.　　Thirdly, I hold it essential for a teacher to be both intellectually and
morally honest. This means that he will be aware of his intellectual strengths
and limitations, and will have thought about and decided upon the moral
principles by which his life shall be guided. There is no contradiction in my
going on to say that a teacher should be a bit of an actor. That is part of the
technique of teaching, which demands that every now and then a teacher should be
able to put on an act to enliven (使生动) a lesson, correct a fault, or award
praise. Children, especially young children, live in a world that is rather
larger than life.　　A teacher must be capable of infinite patience. This, I may say, is largely
a matter of self-discipline and self-training, for we are none of us born like
that.　　Finally, I think a teacher should have the kind of mind which always wants
to go on learning. Teaching is a job at which one w there
is always something more to learn about it. There are three principal objects of
study: the subjects which the the methods by which the
subjects can best be taught to the particular pupils in the classes he is
and ---- by far the most important -- the children, young people, or
adults to whom the subjects are to be taught. The two fundamental principles of
British education today are that education is education of the whole person, and
that it is best acquired through full and active co-operation between two
persons, the teacher and the learner.　　S1. Plain-looking teachers can also be admired by their students if they
have S1 .　　S2. The author says it is S2 that teachers be sympathetic with their
students.　　S3. A teacher should be tolerant because humans tend to have S3(1) and to
be S3(2) .　　S4. A teacher who is S4 will be able to make his lessons more lively.　　S5. How can a teacher acquire infinite patience? S5　　S6. Since teaching is a job no one can be perfect at, it is necessary for
teachers to keep improving their knowledge of the subjects they teach and their
S6　　S7. Teachers' most important object of study is S7 .　　S8. Education cannot be best acquired without S8 between the teacher and
the learner　　Part V Writing (30 minutes)　　Directions: For this part, you are allowed thirty minutes to write an

&Get up, you are going with me to cut grass.& I felt proud and excited because
my father thought I was responsible enough to help him in his business. Still,
that first day was very hard. From sunrise to sunset, my father, my younger
brother and I cut and t very large yards in well-to-do part of the city. By the
end of the day I was exhausted, but I felt good. I put out a hard day's labor
and earned six dollars. One day, my father spotted some weeds I have miss
cutting and pulled me inside. &Cut that section again!& he said firmly &and
don't make me have to tell you again.” The message was very clear. Today I
stress the importance of doing the job right the first time. Every job I have
held from cutting lawns to wash dishes to working a machine on the construction
site. I have learned something that help me in my next job. If you work hard
enough, you can learn from any job you do.　　11. How did the speaker feel when his father asked him to help cut
grass?　　12. What did his father do when the speaker missed cutting some leaves?　　13. What did the speak want to tell us in this passage?　　Passage Two　　I am living in a small village in the country. My wife and I run a village
shop. We have a very peaceful live, boring some my say. But we love it. We know
all the people in the village. They have plenty of time to stop and chat. I have
plenty of time for my hobbies too--gardening, fishing, walking in the country
side. I love the outdoor life. It wasn't always like this though I used to have
a really stressful job, working so late in the office every evening. I often
bring work home at the weekends. The advertising world is very competitive. And
when I look back, I can't imagine how I stood it. I have no private life at all.
No time for the really important things in life. Because of the pressure of the
job, I used to smoke and drink too much. The crisis came when my wife left me.
She complaint that she never saw me and I had no time for family life. This made
me realize what is really important to me. I talked things through with her and
decided to get back together and started a new and better life together. I gave
up tobacco and alcohol and searched for new hobbies. Now I am afraid of looking
back since the past life seemed like a horrible dream.　　14. What did the speaker do for a living?　　15. What do we know about the speaker's life in the past?　　16. What made the speaker change his life style?　　Passage Three　　&Where is the university?& is the question many visitors to Cambridge ask.
But no one could point at any one direction because there is no campus. The
university consists of 31 self-governing colleges. It has lecture halls,
libraries, laboratories, museums and offices throughout the city. Individual
colleges choose their own students who have to meet their minimum entrance
requirements set by the university. And the graduates usually live and study in
their colleges but they are taught in very full groups. Lectures and
laboratories and practical work are organized by the university and held in
university buildings. There are over ten thousand undergraduates and three
thousand five hundred post-graduates. About 40% of them are women and some 8%
from overseas. As well as teaching, research is of major importance. Since the
beginning of the twentieth century, more than sixty university members have won
Nobel prizes. The university has a huge number of buildings for teaching and
research. It has more than 60 specialist subject libraries as well as the
university library, which as the copy-right libraries, is entitled to a copy of
every book published in Britain. Examinations are held and degrees are awarded
by the university. It allowed women to take the university exams in the 1881,
but it was the not until 1941 that they were awarded degrees.　　17. Why is it difficult to located Cambridge University?　　18. What does the passage tell us about the colleges of the university?　　19. What can be learnt from the passage about the libraries in Cambridge
University?　　20. What does we know from the passage tell us about the women students in
Cambridge university?
