For questions1-10, mark Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. Out of College and Into the Red Michael B. White, a 20-year-old from Brooklyn, passed two milestones in June. He received his bachelor’s degree from Swarthmore College, and his debts to finance his education passed the $10,000 mark. “Paying for college was difficult,” Mr. White said. “My mother’s salary as a teacher, our savings and other sources were not enough to cover my educational expenses, so I took out loans from the Federal Government and a bank.” The debt has affected Mr. White in several ways. During summer vacations, he found a short-time job to earn some money. After graduation, he went to work full time as a writer, postponing graduate studies until he could pay back some of his loans. “I am also considering giving up my original goal of becoming a newspaper reporter,” he said. “With my debts, maybe I should look for a better-paying field.” Mr. White’s experience is not unusual, according to Elain Elkhawas, vice president for research of the American Council on Education. Finances were a serious concern for the class of 1984 because the cost of attending college increased 39 percent while they were undergraduates. In 1983-1984 the typical student spent $6,032 while those at some private institutions spent $14,000. College costs have not changed substantially since the mid-1980s, and at the present time they remain a tremendous burden for many families and affect everything from how the student spends his summers to what career he chooses. Many families find that no matter how carefully they save to finance their children’s education, they do not have enough money. In the late 1980’s most colleges raised tuition and fees at twice the rate of inflation in order to finance increased faculty salaries, computers, libraries, laboratories and rising utility bills. A survey of 324 colleges showed that in the mid-1980’s, 59 percent of students at private colleges and 31 percent of those at public institutions received some form of financial aid. The survey found that students at independent colleges who were financially dependent on their parents borrowed an average of $1,965 and those at public schools borrowed $976. Government sources provided most of the loans. Not long after this survey, college costs leveled off. Later surveys showed that they remained at about the same levels in the 1990’s. Interviews with other experts show that students from middle-income families are the most likely to take out loans because their incomes are too high to qualify for scholarships and grants but not enough to finance an education. Students at colleges in large cities run into fewer debts because it is easier for them to find part time jobs than those in rural areas. To repay these loans, more students are taking off time to work before getting further education. They are concerned about running into debt during graduate or professional training. In most cases, students have to finance their graduate and professional education themselves because the amount parents can provide is usually limited. Parents may have other children to put through undergraduate school or want to set some money aside for retirement or an emergency such as a serious illness. Loans are the primary source for these students because there is not that much scholarship aid available from the government or private sources. Higher education is beginning to pay more attention to the problem of student debts. For example, the University of Chicago charges finishing graduate students less tuition because it has found that they are often hard up for money. In spite of the increased debts, few students fail to repay. “Ninety-five percent of our students who take out loans pay them back on time,” said Mr. Douma of the University of Wisconsin. “One thing that I think will have to be changed, though, is the repayment schedule. It was reasonable to expect a student to repay a loan of $2,000 or so in 10 years, but not now, when loans total as much as $10,000.” Despite the burden, some students like Mr. White are glad they took out loans. “Attending Swarthmore was a tremendous experience,” he said. “I learned so much, and the investment I made in my education was worth every penny. I would do it again.” 1. Mr. White received his bachelor’s degree and his debts for education passed the $10,000 mark. 2. After graduation, Mr. White found a short-time job to earn some money, postponing graduate studies. 3. Mr. White gave up his original goal of becoming a newspaper reporter finally. 4. Most American students have to finance their graduate and professional education themselves. 5. Students at private colleges can always receive more financial aids than those at public institutions. 6. The students from low-income families most likely to take out loans. 7. To repay their loans, more students are taking off time to work before getting further education. 8. American parents seldom finance their children’s education because it is easy for students to find part time jobs. 9. Students who failed to repay their increased debts had to give up their education. 10. Mr. White was glad that he took out loans when he was attending college.

So wrong is simply in doing wrong, not in getting 40 . Yet some people wonder if our inner values matter anymore. After all, hasn’t our noted bank 41 succeeded in every visible way, 42 his moral failing? This question demonstrates a 43 of our modern life. Many have come to believe that the only things we need for success are talent, energy and personality. 44 ______ . During the nation’s first century and a half, almost everything in the literature of success and self-help focused on what could be called the character ethic. Such eminent figures as Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson made clear their belief that 45 ___________________________________________________ . After we moved into the industrial age and after World War Ⅰ, the basic view of success shifted to what we could call the personality ethic. Success became more a function of charm, skills and techniques that lubricate the process of human interaction. 46 __________________. Part IV Reading Comprehension(Reading in Depth) (30%) Section A Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once. Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage. In a family where the 47 of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser 48 , notions of male superiority are hard to 49 . The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for 50 , and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept that equality more easily than did their partners and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by 51 rather than by the “battle of the sexes.” If the process goes too far and man’s role is 52 as less important— and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in reserve. It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired to “Momism”—but we don’t want to exchange it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are signs that doctors, psychologists, social workers, and 53 on the family are becoming more 54 of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit—nor all the 55 . We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place in it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child. The family is a cooperative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways of 56 its own problems. Excessive authoritarianism has unhappy consequences whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is pertinent not only to a healthy democracy, but also to a healthy family.

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 choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passages. Amongst the most popular books being written today are those which are usually classified as science fiction. Hundreds of titles are published every year and are read by all kinds of people. Furthermore, some of the most successful films of recent years have been based on science fiction stories. It is often thought that science fiction is a fairly new development in literature, but its ancestors can be found in books written hundreds of years ago. These books were often concerned with the presentation of some form of ideal society, a theme which is still often found in modern stories. Most of the classics of science fiction, however, have been written within the last one hundred years. Books by writers such as Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, to mention just two well-known authors, have been translated into many languages. Modern science fiction writers don’t write about men from Mars or space adventure stories. They are more interested in predicting the results of technical developments on society and the human mind; or in imagining future worlds which are a reflection of the world which we live in now. Because of this their writing has obvious political undertones. In an age where science fact frequently overtakes science fiction, the writers may find it difficult to keep ahead of scientific advances. Those who are sufficiently clear-sighted to see the way we are going, however, may provide a valuable lesson on how to deal with the problems which society will inevitably face as it tries to master its new technology and come to terms with a continually changing view of the world. 57. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A) Science fiction is fairly new in literature. B) Science fiction is rather popular with people today. C) Science fiction only deals with some form of ideal society. D) Hundreds of books classified as science fiction are printed every year. 专业班级 7 8 ： 姓名： 学号： 下 装 订 线 上 装 订 线

C) No one knows anything about what to do with the problems we are to face. D) Our views of the world are subject to change. Passage Two Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage. In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase; therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city. Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage. Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity. Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages. Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions. 62. There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may _______. A) cause a shortage of apartments B) worry those who rent apartments as homes C) increase the profits of landlords D) encourage landlords to invest in building apartment 63. According to the critics, rent control _______. A) will always benefit those who rent apartments B) is unnecessary C) will bring negative effects in the long run D) is necessary under all circumstances 64. The problem of unemployment will arise _______. A) if the minimum wage is set too high B) if the minimum wage is set too low C) if the workers are unskilled D) if the maximum wage is set 65. The passage tells us _______ . A) the relationship between supply and demand B) the possible results of government controls C) the necessity of government control D) the urgency of getting rid of government controls 66. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A) The results of economic decisions can not always be predicted. B) Minimum wage can not always protect employees. C) Economic theory can predict the results of economic decisions if other factors are not changing. D) Economic decisions should not be based on economic theory.
