Part II Reading Comprehension

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and you should decide which is the best choice.

Passage One

Questions31 to35 are based on the following passage:

A 1987 survey was given to 5,000 high school seniors. It showed that they did not know geography. Students in Boston were questioned. One-third of them could not name six New England states. Students in Baltimore were questioned. Half could not shade in the United States on a map. Here is what another survey showed. Students did not know history. Most did not know the dates of the American Civil War. Many did not know World War II leaders.

Someone else asked this question. What did students think of social studies? Their answer: Social studies was not important. They said it was the least important of their studies.

What is social studies? It is the study of individuals. It is the study of groups. It is the study of societies. Social studies covers many fields. You have read about history and geography. These are part of social studies. It covers many other areas as well. Let's say you study the way people live together in groups. This is an area of social studies. So is learning about very early people. So is studying government.

Is social studies important? Early Americans thought so. Students then learned history and civics.

This was to make them good citizens. A report from 1916 set a new goal. It said, "The social studies should cultivate a sense of membership in the world community." The world community is very large. But today it is easy to share ideas in it. We have radio and TV. We have phones. We have computers.

Social studies helps us understand the world's people. It helps us know groups and societies. The 1916 goal was important then. It is even more important now. We all need to be good world citizens.

31. Social studies ________.

A) uses radios, TVs, and computers

B) is the study of people, groups, and societies

C) can be understood by questioning students

D) was first taught in 1916

32. Which fact supports the statement that students did not know geography?

A) A survey questioned 5,000 students.

B) Most students did not know when the Civil War was.

C) Many students did not know World War II leaders.

D) Half of the students from Baltimore couldn't locate the United States on a map.

33. This passage makes it clear that ________.

A) we are not members of a world community

B) social studies helps make good world citizens

C) researchers should question more students

D) social studies is not important

34. The quotation marks around the sentence "The social studies should cultivate a sense of membership in the world community." show that it ________.

A) is important

B) is the writer's opinion

C) is the exact words from the 1916 report

D) was spoken by a high school students

35. The word survey in this passage means a ________.

A) general look

B) plan showing boundaries

C) formal study or poll

D) discussion

Passage Two

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

When you put money in a bank account, your money earns interest. This interest is a payment from the bank for the use of your money. The bank may pay you any interest rate it desires; these days the usual rate is around 5 percent. The basic formula for figuring out how much interest you will earn on an investment is fairly simple. To figure out the interest, multiply three things: the principal (or the amount you invest), the interest rate put into decimal form (5 percent would be written .05), and the time in years. The formula can be written as i = prt.

The formula i = prt is for simple interest. It does not help you find interest that is compounded. Compounding occurs when you have your money alone. Then every so often the interest is computed again using a new principal. The formula for compound interest lets you find the value of an investment after some number of years. However, it is a fairly complex formula. If you want to work with it, you'll need a scientific calculator with an exponent（幂数）key.

Most people find the compound interest formula perplexing. They ask a bank or other investment service to do the math for them. But there is a simple way to figure out when your money will double in value. This is called the "Rule of 72." If you divide the annual interest rate

into 72, the answer is the number of years it will take to double your savings. So money invested at 5 percent will take more than 14 years to double (72 divided by 5).

Now here is a question to ponder. What happens if p equals zero? If you put that value for p into the formula, the answer will be zero. In other words, if you invest no principal, you'll get no interest. And although this is the simplest math of all, it is not a good long-term investment strategy!

36. This passage is mostly about ________.

A) understanding mathematical formulas useful in investing

B) calculating interest from investment based on complicated formulas

C) ways to figure out how much money you are earning in a bank account

D) scientific tools needed to work out interest rate

37. The "Rule of 72" helps you find ________.

A) the changing interest rates within 72 years

B) the total interest you can get in 72 years

C) the amount of money you should invest in 72 years

D) the number of years it takes an investment to double in value

38. At 7 percent annual interest, an investment will double in about ________.

A) 10 months

B) 10 years

C) 72 months

D) 72 years

39. Letters are underlined in three words in the first paragraph in order to show that ________.

A) the letters are part of the interest formula

B) the letters should be capitalized

C) the words they are in are spelled incorrectly

D) each letter stands for a number

40. The word perplexing in this passage means ________.

A) unnecessary

B) long

C) confusing

D) involving percents

Passage Three

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:

A normal conversation between strangers involves more than talk. It also involves the dynamics of space interaction. If one person gets too close, the other person will back up. If the first person invades the other's space again, the other will back up again. The person who finds himself or herself backing up is trying to increase the distance of the comfort zone. The person closing in is trying to decrease that distance. Most likely neither person is fully aware of what is going on.

In the 1960s American anthropologist（人类学者）Edward T. Hall was a pioneer in the study of human behavioral use of space. His field of study became known as proxemics. Hall said that personal space for Americans can be defined as having four distinct zones: the intimate zone within 18 inches of your body for whispering and embracing; personal zone of 18 inches to four feet, for talking with close friends; social zone of four to 10 feet, for talking with acquaintances; and the social zone of 10 to 25 feet, for talking to strangers or to a group.

Historians say that our standards of personal space began with the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century. In cities such as London and New York, people of different social and economic classes were suddenly crammed together, so they unconsciously developed a commonly understood rule of polite behavior and space to restrict the area around them.

People exhibit nonverbal messages of discomfort when their zones are violated. Invaded people might pull at their hair, become rigid, or even become angry. As Hall noted in his work, a comfortable conversation needs to include the range of human personal space.

41. This passage is mostly about________.

A) nonverbal communication

B) conversation rules

C) Edward T. Hall

D) distance between speakers

42. Edward T. Hall identified ________ personal space.

A) one

B) two

C) three

D) four

43. If a close friend of yours were taking with you at eight feet away from you, you would probably soon______.

A) move closer to him

B) move farther away from him

C) let him stop talking

D) go on talking at this distance

44. The third paragraph provides _______.

A) a historical view on personal space

B) an economic reason for restricting personal space

C) an overview of Edward T. Hall's field of study

D) a definition of personal space

45. The word dynamics means_____.

A) difficulties

B) readjustments

C) distances

D) movements

Passage Four

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:

At dawn on January 17, 1995, the city of Kobe was rocked by earthquake tremors. The worst tremors reach 7.2 on the Richter scale. Kobe is Japan's sixth largest city. It is also one of the world's largest ports. Within minutes, Kobe was a disaster area.

How bad was the damage? The earthquake was the worst to hit Japan in 72 years. There were more than 6,000 people dead. More than 35,000 were injured, and nearly 310,000 were left homeless. Some 75,000 buildings were damaged or destroyed. Total damage was estimated at $90 billion.

Were the Japanese prepared for earthquakes? They thought they were. They were expecting a big earthquake to strike one of their major cities. But they did not know when, where, or how big the earthquake would be. Architects and engineers believed they had designed earthquake-proof buildings, transportation, and public services. Kobe's few minutes of earth tremors shattered that belief.

What did people learn from the Kobe earthquake? What happened in Kobe suggests that earthquake hazard was not taken seriously enough. Some people believe that more can be done to reduce damage. They propose the following. More work should be put into quake-proofing buildings. Walls should be built to protect towns on the coast from large waves. Providers of emergency services must be better trained and better prepared. Citizens must be better educated on

what to do when an earthquake strikes.

The major barrier to doing more is cost. Japan finds itself trying balance the cost against the risk of a strong earthquake.

46. Which sentence best tells what this passage says?

A) Cities can be made earthquake proof.

B) More can be done to reduce the damage of earthquake.

C) Earthquakes always cause serious damage.

D) Nothing can be done to reduce the damage of earthquake.

47. How many people died in the Kobe earthquake?

A) More than 6,000.

B) At least 100,000

C) Nearly 310000.

D) 75,000

48. What is the major difficulty in doing more to reduce the earthquake damage?

A) People are not given enough training.

B) Engineers do not have the knowledge.

C) Protection is too costly.

D) No one takes earthquakes seriously.

49. The author's attitude in writing this passage is ________.(Only paragraph 1 is chronological!)

A) analytic

B) blaming

C) provocative

D) indifferent

50. "Tremors" probably means ________.

A) earthquake-proving buildings

B) shaking movements

C) heavy thunderstorms

D) natural disasters

Part III Cloze

Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should choose the ONE answer that best fits into the passage.

Many consumer products that you buy frequently come in more than one size. We all 51 that you save money if you buy the largest size you can use, and most of the time this assumption 52 to be true. Sometimes, however, the savings may not be significant. So 53 you automatically 54 the largest size of some product, you might want to do 55 math.

Assume a product 56 two sizes: the smaller size has 24 ounces and costs $1.19; the larger size is 36 ounces 57 $1.69. To find the savings, if any, on the larger size, you can compute the unit prize. (Units are ounces, pounds, or whatever measure the product is sold in.) 58 , the unit price is the cost per ounce for each size, so use a calculator to divide the price 59 the number of ounces. You can see that the 36 ounce-size has a lower unit price, so it is the better buy.

24 ounces for $1.19 $1.19 ÷ 24 ounces = 0.0495 = 4.95 ￠per ounce

36 ounces for $1.69 $1.69 ÷ 36 ounces = 0.0469 = 4.69 ￠per ounce

But how much do you actually save 60 buying the larger size? To find out, subtract the two unit prices to 61 them: $0.0495 －$0.0469 = $0.0026. In this example, the difference in the unit prices is about $0.003 - only 62 of a penny! So if you don't really need the larger size of this 63 product, you probably 64 purchase it. 65 the price, another 66 to consider when choosing the size to buy is the expiration date on the product. If you're not likely to 67 the size to buy 68 the expiration date, then you should buy a smaller size.

The next time you go to the supermarket, take a pocket calculator 69 you and try finding the

unit prices 70 different sizes of some products. You may very well discover that a small size offers you the best value!

Book I译文(大学体验英语)英语第一册

Book I Unit 1 College Life A篇学无止境 故事发生在一所东部大学里。那是终考的最后一天。一幢教学楼的台阶上围着一群大四的工科生，都在谈论即刻就要开始的考试。他们脸上都带着自信。这是毕业前的最后一场考试了，考完后，即是毕业典礼。然后他们将各奔前程。 话题转到了工作上，有的谈起了找好的工作，有的则谈论着要找的工作。4年的大学学习给了他们自信，使他们觉得自己足以征服世界。 眼前这场考试，不过是一碟小菜罢了。老师已经说过可以携带所需的任何书本或笔记，只要不在考试时交头接耳就行了。 学生们兴高采烈地步入教室。试卷发下来了。看到只有5道论述题，他们一个个脸笑上开了花。 3小时过去后，老师开始收卷。学生们先前的那份自信再也看不到了，而是满脸惊慌。老师握着试卷，面对全班，大家都沉默不语。 她扫了一眼眼前这一张张不安的脸，问道："5道题全答完的有多少？" 没人举手。 "做完4道的有多少？" 还是没人举手。 "3道呢？两道呢？" 学生们再也坐不住了。 "那么一道呢？总有做完一道的吧。" 教室里依然鸦雀无声。老师搁下试卷，说道："这我早料到了。" "我只是想让你们牢牢记住，即使你们已经完成了4年工科学习，这个领域你们还有很多东西要学。其实，你们答不出的这些问题在日常生活中很常见。"她笑了笑，接着说，"这门课你们都能通过，但要记住，你们虽然已经大学毕业，但学习才刚刚开始。" 多年后，我已忘了这位老师的姓名，但牢牢记住了她的教诲。 B篇回眸大学 4年的时光已经过去，这一刻终于来临了。不到两周，我就要毕业了。此刻回想起来，我仍不敢相信时光飞逝如斯。我依然记得第一天去上课时的情景，我一边望着课表背面的地图，一边打听教学楼在哪儿。现在我已是大四的学生，常会以羡慕的眼光看着一年级的新生。每天我都祈愿时间会凝滞，接下来的两周过得更慢一些。许多我认识的人都迫不及待地想要毕业，我却恰恰相反。我宁愿时光倒流，再度重温大学生活的每一天。 大学生活使我学到了许许多多，而且大都是在课外学到的。大二的生活也许是我生命中最值得留念的一段。正是这一年，我终于让妈妈相信我住校没有问题，她终于让我去了。正是这一年，我结交了一些终身好友，历经多次的成功与失败使我对自己有了更多的了解。大二生活还有着种种新的尝试，到山地去野营，把信手涂鸦的诗投到报社，还在课堂上给老师画漫画。 走在校园熟悉的路上，不知不觉中就陷入了深深的反思和对往昔的回忆中。发觉自己好想从头来过，再次体味大学生活的欢娱和激动。一想到毕业心里就一阵阵恐慌。从记事起我就一直在读书。我觉得还有很多东西想学，可是却不得不毕业了。世界如此之大，可能发生的事情太多太多。过去4年中，我一直被一张安全的网包围着。学生这个身份总能让人感到欣慰，使我可以躲开外面世界的无情现实。 不到两周就要离校了，每每想到就要毕业，我就打心眼儿里感到不安。因为我从记事起就一直是名学生。我觉得自己是在回避毕业。每当别人问起我大学毕业后打算做什么，我就想大声尖叫，我不知道以后想做些什么。甚至不敢想像早上醒来没有课上会是什么样的情形。

真心希望有一天能重返校园。以前我也说过，谁也不应该辍学，除非他坚信自己正面临着一个一生仅有一次的机会，但就算在那个时候也还是应该深思熟虑。 在俄亥俄州教六年级的老师凯西·克里德兰写道，“我的好几个学生声称你根本没有读完高中。因为你成功了，我的学生就觉得他们也可以不必要接受良好的教育。” 我高中毕业了的! 计算机行业中确实有很多人没有读完大学，但是我从来没有见过有谁高中没读完就成功创业的。确切地说，我认识的人当中根本没有高中辍学的，更没有高中辍学后事业成功的。 我的公司创立早期，有一个相当出色的兼职程序员，声称要从高中辍学来做全职。我们叫他不要这么做。 我们公司里确实有好些人没有读完大学，但我们不希望人们辍学。谁要想在我们公司谋职，有毕业证书肯定会优先考虑。 不一定只有在大学才能获取信息，在图书馆也可以学习。但人家递给你一本书并不能自动地让你学到东西。你需要向别人学习，提问题，将设想付诸实施，设法验证自己的能力。这一切，往往不是读一两本书就可以做得到的。 接受的教育应该是广泛的，虽然对某些领域情有独钟也不失为一件好事。 读高中时，我有一段时间醉心于软件编写，但大部分时间里，我的学习兴趣相当广泛。我父母鼓励我这么做，对此我感激不尽。 大学期间，我修了很多不同的课程，但我从头至尾只选修了一门计算机课。我读书涉猎很广。 有位家长写信说，她15岁的儿子“钻进计算机无底洞里了”。他的网站设计课得了“A”，但别的科目分数都在下降，她写道。 这个孩子犯了一个错误。高中和大学给你提供了最佳机会，你可以广泛学习——数学，历史，各种学科——有机会跟着别的孩子一起做项目，亲身感受到群体的动力。你对计算机、舞蹈、语言或其他任何的科目有深入的兴趣也无可厚非，但太偏执而舍弃学习广度就不是一件好事了。 如果高中阶段兴趣过于集中，你会面临两个问题。第一个就是进了大学以后你很可能没法改变。另一个问题就是如果分数不够高，你就很难考入大学，而无法向那些积极性很高，很有才能的学生一起学习，他们可以真正帮助你了解这个世界。 大学期间可以适当考虑专业的问题。深入掌握自己感兴趣的领域的专业知识，能够引导你走向成功，除非这个专业没有发展前途，或者你并不很擅长这个方面。读研究生是获取专业知识的一个途径，虽然从纯经济角度来看，大学毕业后再接受教育不一定算是明智的投资。 4. 1. was sinking 2. specialty 3. purely 4. discourage 5. unlikely 6. dynamics 7. actually 8. reasonably 9. have perceived 10. extended 5. 1.took a deep interest in 2. fell into 3. sign up

Unit 1> Caring for Our Earth Passage A Frog Story 蛙的故事 A couple of odd things have happened lately. 最近发生了几桩怪事儿。 I have a log cabin in those woods of Northern Wisconsin. I built it by hand and also added a greenhouse to the front of it. It is a joy to live in. In fact, I work out of my home doing audio production and environmental work. As a tool of that trade I have a computer and a studio. 我在北威斯康星州的树林中有一座小木屋。是我亲手搭建的，前面还有一间花房。住在里面相当惬意。实际上我是在户外做音频制作和环境方面的工作——作为干这一行的工具，我还装备了一间带电脑的工作室。 I also have a tree frog that has taken up residence in my studio. 还有一只树蛙也在我的工作室中住了下来。 How odd, I thought, last November when I first noticed him sitting atop my sound-board over my figured that he(and I say he,though I really don’t have a clue if she is a he or vice versa) would be more comfortable in the greenhouse. So I put him in the greenhouse. Back he came. And stayed. After a while I got quite used to the fact that as I would check my morning email and online news, he would be there with me surveying the world. 去年十一月，我第一次惊讶地发现他（只是这样称呼罢了，事实上我并不知道该称“他”还是“她”）坐在电脑的音箱上。我把他放到花房里去，认为他待在那儿会更舒服一些。可他又跑回来待在原地。很快我就习惯了有他做伴，清晨我上网查收邮件和阅读新闻的时候，他也在一旁关注这个世界。 Then, last week, as he was climbing around looking like a small gray / green human, I started to wonder about him. 可上周，我突然对这个爬上爬下的“小绿人或小灰人”产生了好奇心。 So, there I was, working in my studio and my computer was humming had to stop when Tree Frog went across my stopped and turned around and just sat there looking at ,I sat back and looked at him. For five months now he had been riding there with me and I was suddenly overtaken by an urge to know why he was there and not in the greenhouse,where I figured he’d live a happier frog life. 于是有一天，我正在工作室里干活，电脑嗡嗡作响。当树蛙从我面前爬过时，我不得不停止工作。他停下了并转过身来，坐在那儿看着我。好吧，我也干脆停下来望着他。五个月了，他一直这样陪着我。我突然有一股强烈的欲望想了解他：为什么他要待在这儿而不乐意待在花房里？我认为对树蛙来说，花房显然要舒适得多。 “Why are you here,” I found myself asking him. “你为什么待在这儿？”我情不自禁地问他。 As I looked at him, dead on, his eyes looked directly at me and I heard a tone. The tone seemed to hit me right in the center of my mind. It sounded very nearly like the same one as my computer. In that tone I could hear him “say” to me, “Because I want you to understand.” Yo. That was weird. “Understand what?” my mind jumped in. Then, after a moment of feeling this communication, I felt I understood why he was there. I came to understand that frogs simply want to hear other frogs and to

Unit 1 The Evolving Notion of Home “Home, sweet home” is a phrase that expresses an essential attitude in the United States. Whether the reality of life in the family house is sweet or not so sweet, the ideal of home has great importance for many people. This ideal is a vital part of the American dream. This dream, dramatized in the history of nineteenth-century European settlers of the American West, was to find a piece of land, build a house for one’s family, and start a farm. These small households were portraits of independence: the entire family — mother, father, children, even grandparents — living in a small house and working together to support each other. Everyone understood the life-and-death importance of family cooperation and hard work. Although most people in the United States no longer live on farms, the ideal of home ownership is just as strong in the twentieth century as it was in the nineteenth. When U.S. soldiers came home after World War II, for example, they dreamed of buying houses and starting families. So there was a tremendous boom in home building. The new houses, typically in the suburbs, were often small and nearly identical, but they satisfied a deep need. Many saw the single-family house as the basis of their way of life. For the new suburbanites of the 1950s and 1960s, however, life inside their small houses was very different from life on a farm. First, the family spent much less time together in the house. The father frequently drove, or commuted, as much as an hour to work each morning. The children went to school all day and played after school with neighborhood children. The suburb itself was sometimes called a bedroom community because people used their houses basically for sleeping. Second, the suburb was not a stable community: Families moved frequently as the fathers sought upward mobility — better-paying jobs and bigger houses. Although the idea of home was still as precious as always, it had taken on a different meaning. In the 1970s and 1980s, as more women entered the labor force, the family spent even less time together. But the picture is changing: People can now telecommute, or work at home, while being linked to the office by means of their computers. More and more people can now stay at home. So the old expression could change from

Unit 1 4. Fill each of the blanks with an appropriate word. I found a tree frog in my studio some months ago. I took it to my greenhouse , as I thought it would be a better place for the frog.But it came back and insisted taking the residence in th e studio. Why? I couldn’t get an idea. Then, after five months of being together, we seemed to be able to communicate with each other. It may sound wired , but I did feel I came to understand what it wanted me to do. The frog came to me probably attracted by the humming tone of my computer, which sounded like that of other tree frogs, or with a message to tell me that frogs were dying around the world because of their sensitivity to the pollution and global climate change. As frogs are an“indicator species”, what has happened to them may happen to us, if we sit back and do nothing. We must act now, or it would be too late. 六、 audio 声音的，听觉的boundary 分界线 cup (v.) 使成杯状（捧 起） decade 十年 directly 直接的 focus 集中注意力 overtake 追上，赶上 species 品种，物种 subtle 细致的，细微 的 tone 音色，音质 1.The essayist’s language expresses rich and subtle meanings. 散文的语言表达丰富而细微的含义。 2.
