Fro each question, there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should chose the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage one It is often difficult for visitors to understand Americans’ lack of desire for privacy. They are not a nation of walled gardens and closed gates. Their yards usually run into one another without any fence; they often visit one another’s house without being invited or telephoning first; they leave their office doors open while they work. Their lack of desire for privacy probably results from their history as a nation. America is a big country. There have never been walled cities in the United States, nor was there the need for Americans to protect themselves from neighbouring states. During the early years, America had so few settlers that neighbours were very important; they were not to be shut by doors and fences. Neighbours offered protection and helped with the hard work of settling the land. They depended upon each other. From the nation’s early history has come the desire for openness rather than privacy. Visitors will notice this desire in a number of small ways; there may
be rooms in American homes that do not have doors or that have glass walls If you notice that people forget to close your door when they leave your room. do not think that this is rude, help them to learn that you would like it to be closed, or else become accustomed to new ways. In either case, be patient with the differences 33. According to the passage, visitors to America sometimes have trouble understandi A Americans openness B. Americans lack of desire for privacy C. American's way of humor D. American's style of life 34. Which of the following is true? B. The settlers in the early years needed neighbours help very much C. People get used to American,s openness D. It's difficult to follow American way of life 35. During the early years, people were never shut out by doors because A. they were neighbours B. th C they depended upon each other D. they got accustomed to that 6. Visitors will notice Americans desire for openness in a way A. they walled their house with glass B. they leave their office doors open while working C. they never have fence D. all above 37. Which is the best title for this passage? A No Walled Cities B. The Early Settlers C Americans Lack of Desire for Privacy D. Be patient with differences Passage 2 The murder took place around ten o'clock p. m. on June 10. Thirty-two people watched Kitty being killed right beneath their windows. She was their neighbour. Yet, none of the 32 helped her. Not even one called the police. Was this inhuman cruelty(R C)? Was it lack of feeling for ones fellow ay scientists Dr. Darley and Dr. Fatane. They've found the reasons why people don't act. According to them, a person has to go through two steps before he can help. First he has to notice there is an emergency(紧急情况) Suppose you see a middle-aged man fall onto the ground. Is he having a heart attack, or some other physical trouble? Or is he simply about to sleep off a drunk(Wi)? So it's not always easy to tell if you are faced with a real emergency He must feel that he must help The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. They asked college

In either case, be patient with the differences. 33. According to the passage, visitors to America sometimes have trouble understanding _____. A. American’s openness B.

Yet, none of the 32 helped her. Not even one called the police. Was this inhuman cruelty(狠心)? Was it lack of feeling for one's fellow man? “Not so,” say scientists Dr. Darley and Dr. Fatane. They've found the reasons why people don't act. According to them, a person has to go through two steps before he can help. First he has to notice there is an emergency(紧急情况). Suppose you see a middle-aged man fall onto the ground. Is he having a heart attack, or some other physical trouble? Or is he simply about to sleep off a drunk(醉酒)? So it's not always easy to tell if you are faced with a real emergency. Second and more important, the person faced with an emergency must feel himself responsible. He must feel that he must help. The researchers found that a lot depends on how many people are around. They asked college
students to come in to be tested". Some came alone, some with one or two others, and some in large groups. When they came in, either alone, in pairs, or in groups, a lady went into the next room. Soon the students heard a scream, the noise of something falling and a cry for help. All of this had been pre-recorded on a tape-recorder two ight out of ten of the students taking the test alone acted to help. Of the students in pairs, only out of ten helped Of the students in groups, none helped In other words, in a group, American often fail to act. They feel that others will act. They, themselves, needn,'t. They do not feel any direct responsibility 38. Why didn,'t the thirty-two people act to help Kitty according to the passage? A. Because they were afraid to be killed B.

Americans dont In a group A notice an emergenc B. go through two steps before they act C depend on each other D. feel direct responsibility P The greatest changes have been in the lives of women. During the twenties century there has been a remarkable shortening of the time of womans life spent in caring for children A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five live till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a womans youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by modern living conditions

During the twenties century there has been a remarkable shortening of the time of woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five live till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which health made it unusual for her to get paid work.

Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by modern living conditions
This important change in women's life pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women's economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first chance, and most of them took a full time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never return to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women usually marry younger, more married women stay at least until shortly before their first child is born. Very many more afterwards return to full or part-time job. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the house, according to the abilities and interests of each of them 43. According to the passage, around the year 1900 most women married A. at about twenty five B in their early fifties C. as soon as possible after they were fifteen D at any age from fifteen to forty-five 44. We are told that in a common family in 1890s A. seven or eight children lived to be more than five B. many children died before they were five C. the youngest child would be fifteen D. four or five children died when they were five 45. When she was over fifty, the late nineteenth century mother A. would be healthy enough to take part paid jobs B. was usually expected to die fairly soon C. was unlikely to find a job if she wanted one D would expect to work till she died 46. According to the passage, the women of today usually A instead of get B C have more children under fifteen D. have too few children 47. The best title for this passage is A. Women's life B. The Change of Women's Life C. Womens Marriage D Women's New life services".Advertising aims to increase peoples awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message, and the press offers a fairly cheap method Magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets. Television, al though more expensive, can be very effective. Posters are fairly heap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertising We might ask whether the cost of advertising is paid for by the manufacturer or by the consumer

Women’s New Life Passage 4 Advertising can be thought of "as the means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services". Advertising aims to increase people's awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message, and the press offers a fairly cheap method. Magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Posters are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertising. We might ask whether the cost of advertising is paid for by the manufacturer or by the consumer
Since advertising forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is clear that it is the customer who pays for advertising. However, if large scale advertising leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customer pays less It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertising on sales. When the market growing, advertising helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertising may prevent a bigger fall in scales than would occur without its support What is clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertising if they were not convinced of its value to them 48. Advertising is often used to A. convince customers B promote productio 19.. According to the passage, trade fairs( Paragraph 1)may A replace exhibitions and markets B supply local goods and services C attract possible customers D provide cheap amusements 50. Advertising is in the main paid for by B the prod C. the increased sales D. the decreased costs 51. The author says that advertising can increase demand A. in any period of sales B in any circumstances C in a growing market D. in a shrinking market 52. What the last sentence of this passage actually tells us is that A businessmen usually do not pay more for advertising than they have to B businessmen know well that advertising could bring them more profits C advertising couldn 't convince people of the value of the goods D advertising usually costs businessmen large amounts of money Part IV: Translation from English into Chinese(10%) Directions: In this part, there are four items which you should translate into Chinese, each item consisting of one sentence.
