13、re are 5 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET._Fear a

14、nd its companion pain are two of the most useful things that men and animals possess, if they are properly used. If fire did not hurt when it burnt, children would play it until their hands were burnt away. Similarly, if pain existed but fear did not, a child would burn itself again and again, becau

15、se fear would not warn it to keep away from the fire that had burnt before. A really fearless soldierand some do existis not a good soldier because he is soon killed; and a dead soldier is of no use to his army. Fear and pain are therefore two guards without which men and animals might soon die out.

16、 In our first sentence we suggested that fear ought to be properly used. If, for example, you never go out of your house because of the danger of being knocked down and killed in the street by a car, you are letting fear rule you too much. Even in your house you are not absolutely safe: an airplane

17、may crash on your house, or ants may eat away some of the beams in your roof so that the latter falls on you, or you may get cancer! The important thing is not to let fear rule you, but instead to use fear as your servant and guide. Fear will warn you of dangers; then you have to decide what action

18、to take. In many cases, you can take quick and successful action to avoid the danger. For example, you see a car coming straight towards you; fear warns you, you jump out of the way, and all is well. In some cases, however, you decide that there is nothing that you can do to avoid the danger. For ex

19、ample, you cannot prevent an airplane crashing onto your house. In this case, fear has given you its warning; you have examined it and decided on your course of action, so fear of this particular danger is no longer of any use to you, and you have to try to overcome it.（分数：6.00）(1).Children would pl

20、ay with fire until their hands were burnt away if_.（分数：2.00）A.they were given no warning beforehandB.they had never burnt themselvesC.they had no sense of painD.they were fearful of the fire(2).A really fearless soldier_.（分数：2.00）A.is of little use to the armyB.is without equalC.is nothing but a dea

21、d soldierD.easily gets killed in a battle(3).Fear should be used properly because_.（分数：2.00）A.an airplane may crash on your houseB.you may get cancerC.fear can only be used as a servant and guideD.men are now letting fear rule them too muchIs the customer always right? The answer, it seems, depends

22、on which country you are in. shopping is very much a part of a countrys culture, and attitudes to shopping and consumers vary from country to country just as much as climate or taste in food. From the air-conditioned American shopping centers to the street market of African towns, the way we shop sh

23、ows the way we seen ourselves and our relationships with other people. Business competition in Europe has given consumers increased power. This has meant falling prices, plenty of special offers and a re-examination of what customer service really means. People often point to America as an example o

24、f excellent customer service. In restaurants in the south of the USA, for example, waiters compliment you on your clothes, ask about your day, compliment you on the wisdom of your order and then return every ten minutes to refill your glass and make sure that everything is to your satisfaction. Anyo

25、ne who has waited 30 minutes to be served in a restaurant might well dream of such attention, but do Europeans really want US style service? As a friend of mine once told me, “By the end of the evening I had spent as much time talking to the waiter as to my wife. “ It is a question of expectation. D

26、ifferent nationalities expect different types of service.A Chinese-American friend loves telling people about how her Chinese mother shops for clothes: “First of all she waits until they are on sale, then she bargains until she gets an even better price and then she finds some small fault with the p

27、roduct and demands a further reduction. She never buys anything at the regular price. “ Could you imagine trying such tricks in a department store in your country? Attitudes to service are, of course, affected by employers attitudes to their workers. As American sales and service personnel are heavi

28、ly reliant on commission and tips, they have more motives to provide more service. But is this fair? Do we think it is fair to ask shop assistants to work late evenings, Sundays and 12 hour shifts? It might not be a case of “Is the customer always right?“ but a case of “How much service is it fair t

29、o expect?“（分数：10.00）(1).The way people shop_.（分数：2.00）A.carries social and cultural valuesB.reflects the developmental stage of a countryC.determines the way they socializeD.reveals their social status(2).The word “compliment“ in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_“.（分数：2.00）A.evaluateB.criticiz

31、or use the Chinese mothers shopping experience as an example?（分数：2.00）A.To warn shop assistants of tough customers.B.To teach people how to get better service as customers.C.To criticize some improper shopping behavior.D.To show how different peoples expectations of service are.(5).According to the

32、last paragraph, the service quality of American sevice personnel may depend on_.（分数：2.00）A.the customers attitude towards themB.the amount of commission and tipsC.the length of their working hoursD.their working experienceHow men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of

33、 language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to repr

34、esent those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associationsthe things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the mo

35、re certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds

36、and emotions. This charming use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully

37、 and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and dull.（分数：12.00）(1).The origin of language is_.（分数：2.00）A.a legend handed down from the pastB.a matter that is hidden secretlyC.a question difficult to answerD.a problem not yet solved(2).One of the reasons why men invented certain soun

39、hey are simply sounds.D.They are mysterious.(4).In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able_.（分数：2.00）A.to confuse the readersB.to move men to tearsC.to move our actionsD.to puzzle our feelings(5).Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?（分数：2.00）A.He is no more a m

40、aster of words than an ordinary person.B.He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C.He can move men to tears.D.His style is always charming.(6).The best title for this passage is_.（分数：2.00）A.The Origin and Function of Language B Language: Measure to CommunicateB.The Power of WordsC.The

41、 Importance of LanguageToday is the anniversary of that afternoon in April a year ago that I first saw the strange and appealing doll (玩具娃娃) in the window of Abe Sheftels toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads: Dr. Sam

42、uel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first hint of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft-coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighborhood. As I turned the corner on my way to work and came to Sheftels, I was made once more aware of the

43、poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the approaching birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending modest gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the confusing colle

44、ction of unappealing objectsa red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft-drinks. And thus it was that my eyes eventually came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming

45、 expression on her face. I could not wholly make her out, due to the shadows and the film of dust through which I was looking, but I was aware that a tremendous impression had been made upon me as though -I had run into a person, as one does sometimes with a stranger, with whose personality one is d
