Declaration of Independence, the American people ignored royal birthdays and began instead to celebrate General Washington’s birthday. This custom started on 1778 during the army’s cold snowy winter at Valley Forge, when one of the military bands marched to Washington’s headquarters and played for him. When the war was ended in 1783, Washington eagerly returned to Mount Vernon. But his peaceful retirement was interrupted when he was unanimously chosen first president of the United States. He took office in 1789 and was reelected in 1792. In 1796, he refused a third term and retired from political life. He died two years later and was buried at Mount Vernon, which one million tourists visit every year. Shortly after his death, Washington was praised in these famous words: “First in war, first in peace, and first in the heart of his countrymen.” To the American people, Washington symbolizes dignity, statesmanship, and, above all, honesty. The famous cherry tree story, which was invented by Washington’s first biographer, has become a lesson in morals for all American schoolchildren. The story goes like this: When George Washington was about six years old, his father gave him a hatchet (small axe), which the little boy loved to play with. One day, he tried the edge of his hatchet on his father’s favorite young cherry tree and did enough damage to kill the tree. Next morning, his father noticed the damage and ran into the house shouting, “George, do you know who killed that beautiful little cherry tree … in the garden?” George’s famous reply was, “I can’t tell a lie, Pa, you know I can’t tell a lie. I cut it with my hatchet.” His father, pleased with the boy’s courage and honesty, quickly forgave him. Because of this story, traditional desserts on Washington’s birthday are cherry pie or a log-shaped cake decorated with cherries. Washington’s Birthday is a legal holiday throughout the U.S.A. It is celebrated on the third Monday in February. In some states, this date is called President’s Day and honors both Washington and Lincoln. 71. George Washington’s birthday was first celebrated a) before the War of Independence. b) after he died. c) after he became the President of the United States. d) during the War of Independence. 72. The famous cherry tree story a) was widely known when George Washington was a child. b) was not a true story. c) shows that honesty can avoid punishment. d) gradually loses its influence. 73. From the passage we can infer that a) Lincoln was born in February. b) the American people love Washington because he was honest. c) Washington was buried near the capital. d) cherry pie is a necessity for Washington’s birthday. 74. The main theme of the passage is a) George Washington’s birthday

b)the famous cherry tree story. c)Washington's ho onesty d)the great merits of George Washington. Text B College costs vary quite a bit,depending upon the type of school attended.For example. at ny of the e more e private scho annual costs (includin m,board,boo ks,travel to and from home,and other exper s)may excee $20,000.Of course,public universities are much cheaper.At these schools,tuition is significantly higher for out-of-state students that it is for those whose permanent residence is within that state.Tuition at community colleges averages about half the in-state cost of public,four-year colleges and universities. For tho e that afford the cost of education,financial aid is the answer.Students in the U.S. recent years,nearly 75%of students in postsecondary programs have been receiving some form of financial aid.There are three main types of financial aid:(a)scholarship (grants),which are gifts that students do not repay:(b)loans to students and/or their udents employment(w ork/ study) which the school st fina aid is need- that is,on students who need the money receive it.Financial assistance to outstanding students who do not need the money (commonly called merit-based aid)is limited. The funds for all of this aid come from three main sources-the federal goverment,state govemments,and private contributions.Every American college university sa financial aid office to help students find out wha kind of aid the might be qualified to get and to assist them in completing the complicated application form.Aliens who are permanent residents in the U.S.A.are qualified to receive government assistance,but foreign students(1-20 visa students)are not. 75.Astudent may pay the least tuition if he studies a)at a community college within his own state b)at a public university c)within his own state d)at a four-vear college 76.Financial aid is largely g ven to those who a)study well. b)need money c)cannot repay d)lose their jobs 77.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true? a)Foreign students if they are permanent residents in the U.S.can receive povernment assistance b)Foreign students withI-20visa cannot receive government assistance Mo e s tudents canr scholarship th rtypes of financial d 78.The main theme ofthe passage is a)the high college costs in the U.S. b)how to get financial aid in a college

b) the famous cherry tree story. c) Washington’s honesty. d) the great merits of George Washington. Text B College costs vary quite a bit, depending upon the type of school attended. For example, at many of the more expensive private schools, annual costs (including tuition, room, board, books, travel to and from home, and other expenses) may exceed $ 20,000. Of course, public universities are much cheaper. At these schools, tuition is significantly higher for out-of-state students that it is for those whose permanent residence is within that state. Tuition at community colleges averages about half the in-state cost of public, four-year colleges and universities. For those that cannot afford the cost of a college education, financial aid is the answer. Students in the U.S.A. receive about $ 20 billion per year in financial aid. In recent years, nearly 75% of students in postsecondary programs have been receiving some form of financial aid. There are three main types of financial aid: (a) scholarship (grants), which are gifts that students do not repay; (b) loans to students and/or their parents; and (c) students employment (work/study), a part-time job which the school gives the student for the academic year. Most financial aid is need-based; that is, only students who need the money receive it. Financial assistance to outstanding students who do not need the money (commonly called merit-based aid) is limited. The funds for all of this aid come from three main sources – the federal government, state governments, and private contributions. Every American college and university has a financial aid office to help students find out what kind of aid they might be qualified to get and to assist them in completing the complicated application form. Aliens who are permanent residents in the U.S.A. are qualified to receive government assistance, but foreign students (I-20 visa students) are not. 75. A student may pay the least tuition if he studies a) at a community college within his own state. b) at a public university. c) within his own state. d) at a four-year college. 76.

c) American higher education. d) College costs and financial aid. Text C Staggering tasks confronted the people of the United States, North and South, when the Civil War ended. About a million and a half soldiers from both sides had to be demobilized, readjusted to civilian life, and reabsorbed by the devastated economy. Civil government also had to be put back on a peacetime basis and interference from the military had to be stopped. The desperate situation of the South had eclipsed the fact that reconstruction had to be undertaken also in the North, though less spectacularly. Industries had to adjust to peacetime conditions; factories had to be retooled for civilian needs. Financial problems loomed large in both the North and the South. The national debt had shot up from a modest $ 65 million in 1861, the year the war started, to nearly $ 3 billion in 1865, the year the war ended. This was a colossal sum of those days but one that a cautious government could pay. At the same time, war taxes had to be reduced to less burdensome levels. Physical devastation caused by invading armies, chiefly in the South and border states, had to be repaired. This difficult task was ultimately completed, but with discouraging slowness. Other important questions needed answering. What would be the future of the four million black people who were freed from slavery? On what basis were the Southern states to be brought back into the Union? What of the Southern leaders, all of whom were liable to charge of treason? One of these leaders, Jefferson Davis, president of the Southern Confederacy, was the subject of an insulting popular Northern song, “Hang Jeff Davis from a Sour Apple Tree,” and even children sang it. Davis was temporarily chained in his prison cell during the early days of his two-year imprisonment. But he and the other Southern leaders were finally released, partly because it was unlikely that a jury from Virginia, a Southern Confederate state, would convict them. All the leaders were finally pardoned by President Johnson in 1868 in an effort to help reconstruction efforts proceed with as little bitterness as possible. 79.

Text D Advice to Freshman You have been at Furnell University for two weeks now. As usual, you need enough time to sleep and eat. You also want to spend time with your new friends and get some exercise. But, after the first two weeks of classes, you have probably concluded that there isn’t enough time to do all these things, because you also have to attend classes, go to labs, do assignments and write papers. Soon you will be in a situation like this one: You are going to have a quiz in your ten o’clock class. You studied for it until 3 a.m. You also have an eight o’clock class. Should you sleep late and skip the eight o’clock class? To some extent the answer depends on the professor of the course. Some instructions announce that they require attendance. In that case you really should go to class. Some don’t say anything. In that case you have to decide. Once in a while it is better to stay in bed and sleep than to get so tired you cannot think. However, it is not a good idea to skip class more than a few times. If you have to skip a class, ask another student for the class notes, announcements and the assignment. Also, come to the next class prepared. If you miss class because you are sick, tell the instructor afterward. He or she may let you make up the work. If you have an important appointment, tell the instructor about it before you miss the class. Here is another common problem. You took the quiz. Even after studying very hard, you could not answer all the questions. In high school you always got every answer right. What went wrong? Nothing. High school works is easy, so a good student is supposed to get a perfect score. In college the teacher wants to challenge even the best students. Therefore, almost nobody answers every question correctly. But maybe there were some very basic ideas in that course you did not understand. Go see the teacher during his or her office hours. Most teachers will gladly explain things again. Of course, they will not be pleased to repeat what they said in class to someone who skipped class. Maybe you really should get up for that eight o’clock class! 83.

c) stay in the dormitory and study. d) make excuses to the teachers. 84. According to the article, a good student in college must also a) know the answer to every quiz question. b) answer only interesting questions. c) know the answers to every question the teacher asks. d) know the answer to a lot of quiz questions but maybe not the hardest ones. 85. Daily attendance is required a) at all American universities. b) only in elementary and high schools in America. c) for bad students only. d) by some college professors. 86. Furnell students usually have a) announcements to make in class. b) a lot of free time c) a lot of work and not much time. d) perfect quiz scores Text E Volcanoes Geologists have been studying volcanoes for a long time. Though they have learned a great deal, they still have not discovered the causes of volcanic action. They know that the inside of the earth is very hot, but they are not sure exactly what causes the great heat. Some geologists have thought that the heat is caused by the great pressure of the earth’s outer layers. Or the heat may be left from the time when the earth was formed. During the last sixty years scientists have learned about radium, uranium, thorium, and other radioactive elements. These give out heat all the time as the heat inside the earth is produced by radioactive elements. Whatever the cause of the heat may be, we do know that the earth gets hotter the farther down we dig. In deep mines and oil wells the temperature rises abut 1 ℉ each 50 feet. At this rate the temperature 40 miles below the earth’s surface would be over 4,000 ℉. This is much hotter than necessary to melt rock. However, the pressure of the rock above keep most materials from melting at their usual melting points. Geologists believe that the rock deep in the earth may be plastic, or puttylike. In other words, the rock yields slowly to pressure but is not liquid. But if some change in the earth’s crust releases the pressure, the rock melts. Then the hot, liquid rock can move up toward the surface. When the melted rock works its way close to the earth’s crust, a volcano may be formed. The melted rock often contains steam and other gases under great pressure. If the rock above gives way, the pressure is released. Then the sudden expansion of the gases causes explosions. There blow the melted rock into pieces of different sizes and shoot them high in the air. Here they cool and harden into volcanic ash and cinders. Some of the material falls around the hole made in the earth’s surface. The melted rock may keep on rising and pour out as lava. In this way, volcanic ash, cinders, and lava build up the cone-shaped mountains that we call volcanoes
