Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points) Directions: There are four 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). You should decide on the best answer and mark it by crossing the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a pencil. Passage one Today we visited the Field Museum to see the new dinosaur (恐龙) exhibit.At first I wasn't interested in seeing an old pile of bones. Why would anyone want to learn about something that's not around anymore? First we walked into a big room.I was staring at the bones of a giant beast! It almost filled the room. Two huge, dark holes in its boney head stared back at me. It was Dinosaur Sue. Our guide told us that when Sue was living, she weighed more than 150 fourth graders put together! He asked us to look at her teeth which were long and sharp. The guide said Sue’s teeth show that she was a meat eater.I’m glad I wasn’t around when the dinosaurs were alive. I might have been lunch for her! As I looked at it,I imagined what the dinosaur had looked like when it was alive.Suddenly I realized that these bones had once belonged to a living creature here on Earth. It made me wonder about other creatures that had once lived here. Now I understand why people want to learn about these creatures.Perhaps I will hunt for dinosaur bones someday. It would be very exciting to find a dinosaur skeleton(骨架). 41. When the author first got to the museum, she . A) was eager to see the giant beast B) didn’t want to know about dinosaurs C) didn’t want to see the boney head D) was sad to look at the dead dinosaurs 42. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the author was . A) worried the dinosaur might be alive B) afraid of being lunch for the dinosaur C) glad that Dinosaur Sue was a meat eater D) surprised by the size of the skeleton 43. After visiting the Museum, the author . A) becomes interested in dinosaurs B) believes dinosaurs are still alive C) doesn’t think dinosaurs are creatures D) doesn’t want to touch dinosaurs
44. Which of the following did Dinosaur Sue have for food? A) Humans. C) Grass. B) Animals. D) Trees. 45. This passage mainly talks about _________? A) the weights and sizes of dinosaurs B) the description of the author’s interests in dinosaurs C) the change of the author’s attitude toward dinosaurs D) the experience of hunting for dinosaur bones Passage Two Is organic food better? Most of the parents say it is, at least in part: “In organic food, there is less pesticide residues (农药残留) ”, say some parents. Early childhood exposure to lead and other poisonous substances at very low levels is now known to be harmful, so parents think caution should be in order. “Clearly if you eat organic product, you have fewer poisonous substances in your body, ” Joel Forman, an associate professor says. That’s particularly important for young children, he says, because they are especially easy to be hurt by chemical exposure while their brains are developing. That puts parents in a difficult situation, because they also want children to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, not less. But organic food still cost more in most cases, and many parents can’t afford to buy it only. Suggestions are made that parents should think about buying organic fruits and vegetables that are more likely to contain more pesticide residue, and going conventional for those that tend to have less. Another similar case is about milk, conventionally – raised cows are often fed antibiotics(抗生素) to stimulate growth, and parents are worried that this may do harm to children. “Growth hormone(激素) in cows doesn’t work in people,” Forman says. “There’ s very little in the milk. And even if there was, it wouldn’t be absorbed. ” 46. Parents are worried about . A) chemical exposure to milk B) high cost of organic vegetables C) poisonous substances in food D) growth hormone in fruits 47. According to this passage, Joel Forman’s remarks . A) caused parents to buy less fruits B) made parents feel easy C) solved patents’ problems D) confirmed parents’ worries 48. Parents are in a difficult situation because . A) there is still pesticide residue in organic fruits and vegetables
B) organic food costs so much that no parents can afford it C) they can hardly afford enough organic food for their children D) children will be exposed to more poisonous substances in organic food 49. A possible solution is to buy organic vegetables and fruits that are likely to contain . A) more pesticide residue B) less pesticide residue C) less growth hormone D) more growth hormone 50. Joel Forman says in the last paragraph that growth hormone in milk _________. A) does little harm B) is very harmful C) stimulates children’s growth D) is completely absorbed by cows Passage Three Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job, and the plan fell apart(失败,破裂). The Jacobs family worked out a solution: They asked and received more aid from the schools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the government loan program. The twin sons will be able to finish school. With unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear more families like the Jacobs. More students are applying for aid, and more families expect to need student loans. College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around. At the same time, tuition(学费)continues to rise and student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade. It is reported that most middle class families have been financing college education through debt. They will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that means a huge amount of debt. Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. The good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted. 51. According to the first paragraph, why did the plan of the Jacobs family fail?
A) The family fell apart. B) The tuition was raised. C) Their savings ran out. D) The father was out of work. 52. How did the Jacobs manage to solve their problem? A) They got help from the schools and the government. B) They borrowed a large sum of money from the schools. C) They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs. D) They told their children to drop out of school. 53. Financial aid administrators believe that . A) college tuition fees will double in the next decade B) the government will receive more letters of complaint C) more families will face the same problem as the Jacobs D) they will have enough money to support poor students. 54. What can we learn about the middle class families from the passage? A) They blame the government for the college tuition increase. B) They earn enough to support their kids’ college education. C) They will try their best to send their kids to college. D) Their debts will be paid off within a decade. 55. According to the past paragraph, the government will . A) provide most students with scholarships B) cut down financial aid to college students C) stop the companies from providing student loans D) go on providing financial support for college students Passage Four Blind imitation (模仿) is self-destruction. But in the early stages of skill or character development, imitation is helpful. When I first learned to cook, I used recipes (菜谱) and turned out some tasty dishes. In daily life, imitation can hurt us if we subconsciously (下意识地) hold poor role models. If, as a child, you observed people whose lives were bad, you may have accepted their fear and pain as normal and gone on to follow what they did. If you do not make strong choices for yourself, you will get the results of the weak choices of others. If you are going to follow someone, focus on their talent, not their bad character or unacceptable behaviors. Blessed(幸福的) is the person willing to act on their sudden desire to create something unique. Think of the movies, books, teachers, and friends that have affected you
most deeply. They touched you because their creations were motivated by inspiration, not desperation. The world is changed not by those who do what has been done before them, but by those who do what has been done inside them. Creative people have an endless resource of ideas. The problem a creator faces is not running out of material; it is what to do with the material knocking at the door of imagination. Study your role models, accept the gifts they have given, and leave behind what does not serve you. 56. Imitation proves useful when you _____. A) have the skill to imitate B) begin to develop your character C) turn out to be a person of good taste D) follow others subconsciously 57. Imitation can be harmful if you . A) focus on someone’s talent B) make strong choices for yourself C) follow your role models blindly D) are fearful of making choices 58. According to the author, the world moves on because of those who are . A) willing to accept others’ ideas B) desperate to influence others with their knowledge C) eager to do what has been done before D) ready to turn their original ideas into reality 59. The trouble a creator faces is _____. A) the imaginative use of material B) the continuous absence of material C) the severe shortage of material D) the strong motivation by material 60. What is the author's purpose in writing this passage? A) To criticize the characters of role models. B) To highlight the importance of creatively. C) To compare imitation with creation. D) To explain the meaning of success. Part III Cloze (10 points) Direction: Thereare10blanksinthefollowingpassage.Foreachblanktherearefourchoices marked A),B),C), and D).
