IV.  Reading Comprehension (Choose the best answer for each of the questions or unfinished statements after the reading passages.)
Passage 1
There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.
Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.
Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action. (221 words)
21.         Our long-term goals mean a lot ____________.
    A. If we cannot reach solid short-term goals                B. If we complete the short-term goals
C. If we have dreams of the future                                D. If we put forward some plans
22.         New short-term goals are built upon ____________.  
A. a daily basis                                                        B. your achievement in a week
C. current activities                                                        D. the goals that have been completed
23.         When we complete each step of our goals, ____________.
A. we will win final success                                        B. we are overwhelmed
C. we should build up confidence of success                D. we should have strong desire for setting new goals
24.         What is the main idea of this passage? ____________   
A Life is a dynamic thing.                                        B. we should set up long-term goals
C. Different kinds of goals in life.                                D. The limitation of long-term goals.
25.         Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? ____________
    A. The long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals
B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.
C. Life is a static thing, thus we should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.
Passage 2
The dark smoke that comes out of stacks(大烟囱) or from a burning dump(垃圾) contains tiny bits of solid or liquid matter. The smoke also contains many gases, most of which cannot be seen. Altogether, they make up the serious problems of air pollution. In so many places it keeps us from seeing the sun, irritate(刺痛) our eyes, causes us to cough and makes us ill.
    Air pollution can spread from city to city. It even spreads from one country to another. Some northern European countries have had "black snow" from pollutants that have traveled through the air from other countries and have fallen with the snow. So air pollution is a global problem. It can kill babies, older people and those who have respiratory(呼吸) disease. In 1952, four thousands people die in one week as a result of a serious air pollution breakout in London. In 1948 in a small town of Pennsylvania, 20 people died in a four - day period of air pollution. As often found in cities, air pollution increases the risks of lung disease, such as bronchitis and asthma. Of course, smoking and other factors help to cause these illnesses, too, but these causes have increased greatly during recent years as air pollution has become worse.
26. Which of the following is NOT true about the "black snow" incident?
A. It happened in the northern European countries.
B. It happened there because air pollution in these countries was most serious.
C. Pollutants that fell with snow made it dirty.
D. It is a global problem.
27. Who can be killed by air pollution?
A. Earth and plants.                                                        B. Stones and birds.
C. Those who suffer from respiratory illnesses.        D. Both A and C.
28. How many people died of air pollution in Pennsylvania in 1948?
A. 4,000.                                B. 20.                                C. None.                                D. 4020.
29. What are bronchitis and asthma?
A. Different types of headaches.                                B. Lung disease.
C. Heart diseases.                                                        D. Different types of stomach aches.
30. According to the passage, air pollution increases people's chance of getting ______?
A. Headache.                        B. A lung disease.                C. Stomachache.                D. Nervous breakdown.

IV.  Reading Comprehension (Choose the best answer for each of the questions or unfinished statements after the reading passages.)
Passage 1  
Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles apart.
Last Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary(周年纪念)of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality. The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.
But their relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac’s body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug(拥抱), Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.
The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn’t stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys(调查)show that most French people feel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France’s close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain’s close links with the US.
Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of “doubtful friendship”, they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here’s one: What’s the best thing about Britain’s relationship with France? The English Channel.
21. For centuries, the relationship between Britain and France is ____________.
A. friendly                                                        B. impolite                       
C. brotherly                                                        D. a mixture of love and hate
22. The war in Iraq does ____________ to the relationship between France and Britain.
    A. good                                                                B. harm               
C. neither good nor harm                                D. both good and harm
23. The British are not so friendly to ____________ and the French are not so friendly to ____________.
    A. Germany; America                                        B. America; Germany
C. Germany; Germany                                        D. America; America
24. ____________ are more interested in having holidays in ____________.   
A. American people…Britain                                B. British people … Germany
C. French people … Britain                                D. British people … France
25. What does the last sentence mean?
A. As long as the English Channel exists, no further disagreement will form between France and Britain.
B. The English Channel can prevent anything unfriendly happening in both France and Britain.
C. France and Britain are near neighbors, and this will help balance the relationship between them.
D. The English Channel is the largest enemy between France and Britain.
Passage 2
As long as the sun shines, the earth will not run out of energy. The sun pours more energy on earth than we can ever use. Most of that energy comes to us as heat and light. Energy from the sun is called solar energy.
    Anything to do with the sun is called "solar". The word began with the Roman word for the sun and their god of the sun, who was called Sol. Solar energy is a safe kind of energy. It doesn't make pollution or have dangerous leftovers. That is why scientists and investors are experimenting with ways of harnessing(治理利用)the sun to do some of the jobs fossil fuels have been doing.
    But to make the sun do work like that, they have to solve some problems. They have to collect the sun's energy. Collecting sunshine is not easy, unless you are a plant. Sunshine is not easy to store, either. You can't fill a tank with it or put it in the wood box. You can not move it through a pipe or a wire. You can not just turn it on.
26. What form does most of solar energy take to reach us?
A. Light.                                B. Heat.                                C. gas.                        D. both A and B.
27. Where does the word "solar" come from?
A. Greek.                                B. Roman.                        C. Old English.        D. Chinese.
28. Which of the following is NOT true of solar energy?
A. It is a safe energy.                                        B. It is a green energy.
C. It may cause pollution to the air.                D. It is endless.
29. What are the problems facing scientists who want to use solar energy?
A. It is not easy to collect.                                B. It is not easy to store.
C. It is not easy to find out.                                D. both A and B.
30. What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage?
A. To give a brief introduction to solar energy.
B. To explain the reason why it is not easy to make solar energy.
C. To give information about the advantages of solar energy.
D. To give a brief introduction to the word "solar".

Passage 1
If you've been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.
Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are "talking" online ─ many of them are talking at the same time.
It's fast: trying talking to six people once. It's convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.
And it requires very simple language. There's neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do?
Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (=pardon me for jumping in).
Interested in whom you're talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal's age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.
If something makes you laugh, say you're OTF (=on the floor), or LOL (=laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (=rolling on the floor laughing).
And when it's time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got to go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).
People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feeling, as it takes more time to hold down the "shift" key and use capitals. Punctuation is going too.

Passage 2
I am going to tell you a story about two drivers who wanted to park their cars in the same parking space.

He was very angry and red in the face. He wound down his window and looked at the young man. But the young man wasn't sorry. He had got out his car now and he was laughing. "You have to be young to do that!" he said to the older driver and pointed at the Mini and at the space he had just taken.
    The older man said nothing. He just began to reverse his Rolls Royce again and crashed into the Mini very hard. There was not much of the Mini left when the older driver had finished. The young man watched what was happening and couldn't believe his eyes. He was angry and very red in the face. The older driver looked out of the window and smiled.

IV.  Reading Comprehension (Choose the best answer for each of the questions or unfinished statements after the reading passages.)
Passage 1
Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.  
One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.  
Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.  
Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.

Passage 2
It was Monday. Mrs. Smith's dog was hungry, but there was not any meat in the house. Mrs. Smith took a piece of paper, and wrote the following words on it: "Give my dog half a pound of meat.” Then she gave the paper to her dog and said gently: "Take this to the butcher and he's going to give you your lunch today." Holding the piece of paper in its mouth, the dog ran to the butcher's. It gave the paper to the butcher. The butcher read it carefully, recognized that it was really the lady's handwriting and soon did it as he was asked to. The dog was very happy, and ate the meat up at once. At noon, the dog came to the shop again. It gave the butcher a piece of paper again. After reading it, he gave it half a pound of meat once more. The next day, the dog came again exactly at noon still with a piece of paper in the mouth. This time, the butcher did not take a look at paper, and gave the dog its meat, for he had regarded the dog as one of his customers. But, the dog came again at four o'clock. And the same thing happened once again. To the butcher's more surprise, it came for the third time at six o'clock, and brought with it a third piece of paper. The butcher felt a bit puzzled.

IV.  Reading Comprehension (Choose the best answer for each of the questions or unfinished statements after the reading passages.)
Passage 1
       In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person, who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.

Passage 2
How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
26. The origin of language is _________.
A.a legend handed down from the past                                B.a matter that is hidden or secret
C.a question difficult to answer                                        D.a problem not yet solved
27. What is true about words? _______
A.They are used to express feelings only.                        B.They can not be written down.
C.They are simply sounds.                                                D.They are mysterious.
28. The real power of words consists in their ______.
A.properties                        B.characteristics1                        C.peculiarity                D.representative function
29. By "association" in the last paragraph, the author means ______.
A.a special quality                                                                 B. a joining of ideas in the mind
C.an appearance which is puzzling                                        D.a strange feature
30. Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true? _________
A. He is no more than a master of words.
B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.
C. He can move men to tears.
D. His style is always charming.

IV.  Reading Comprehension (Choose the best answer for each of the questions or unfinished statements after the reading passages.)
Passage 1
Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person's conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing "the right thing." Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, "You're just saying that to make me feel good. I know it's not true." It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.
Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let's not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.
21. What does the author try to prove by citing "what kind of impression am I making?" (Para. 1) __________
A.Shy people benefit from their caring about their appearance.
B.People's shyness made them care too much about their appearance and actions.
C.It's natural that shy people don't believe other's compliments.
D.Shy people think they are different from others.
22. According to the writer, self-awareness is __________.
A.a good quality                                                        B.the cause of unhappiness
C.harmful to people                                                D.a weak point of shy people
23. That shy people react to a compliment in such a way is ___________.
A.good                                B.unreal                                C.very reasonable                        D.harmful

Passage 2
Pubs are supposed to be the Englishman's favorite meeting place, where he can get together with a few friends over a pint of beer and talk about football, or horse racing, or business.
    You may notice that the pub is the place for men, but not for women. Even now it is still not quite respectable for a woman to go into a pub alone; she must have a man to escort(护卫) and protect her. Perhaps that is partly why pubs depress me - they are intended mainly to provide for male interests, which are often pretty narrow. I think this male-dominated atmosphere also reminds me of my life back at school, or in the army, neither of which is an experience I much want to relive.
    However, I'm obviously in the minority. Most Englishmen have their local pubs, where they can escape from the pressures of family life or work, and if they are lucky, tell their troubles to a pretty barmaid. Indeed, many men dream of retiring from their 9 - 5 jobs and buying a little country pub, where they imagine they'll be the host of a seven-night-a-week party. This dream usually dies when cleaning up spilled beer at one o'clock in the morning.
    Still, there's pub for every type of man, from the city sophisticate to the rural primitive, and a man for every type of pub. And I must admit that, for someone who doesn't like them, I spent a lot of time in pubs of various kinds.
26. For what do Englishmen go to the pubs?
A. They go there to make friends.
B. They go to meet and talk with their friends over some beer.
C. They go there to see the pretty barmaid.
