16、e One(总题数：1，分数：12.50)On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with her money and her key in it, pulled the door behind her to lock it and went to the Over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursdays. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone. At six o“c
17、lock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry. Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might
18、have a key that fitted her front door “a master key“ perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didn“t go to the club. Instead she took a short cut ho
19、me again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait. It was just after four o“clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boi
20、ling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob (门把) on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, and
21、the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.（分数：12.50）(1).Mrs. Clarke looked forward to Thursday because she _.（分数：2.50）A.joined in a special activity in the clubB.could meet her old frien
22、dsC.regularly visited a clubD.had a special visitor to meet(2).Mrs. Clarke thought that if someone had made a forced entry, _.（分数：2.50）A.a door or a window would have been damagedB.he or she might hide somewhere in the houseC.things would have been thrown aboutD.he or she might not have a master key
23、(3).On the third Thursday Mrs. Clarke went out because she wanted to _.（分数：2.50）A.seek help to find out the truth of the cigarette smokeB.see if the thief was hanging about outsideC.resume her normal visit to the clubD.catch the thief by trick(4).Mrs. Clarke didn“t expect that her front door _.（分数：2

25、 just wanted to drop it offD.it was too hot to hold the wire四、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.50)To understand how Americans think about things, it is necessary to understand “the point“. Americans mention it often: “Let“s get right to the point.“ They will say, “My point is.“ “What is the point of all this
26、?“ The “point“ is the idea of the piece of information that Americans suppose is, or should be, at the center of people“s thinking, writings, and spoken comments. Speakers and writers are supposed to “make their points clear“, meaning that they are supposed to say or write clearly the idea of the pi
27、ece of information they wish to express. People from many other cultures have different ideas about the point. Africans traditionally tell stories that express the thoughts they have in mind, rather than stating the point clearly. Japanese traditionally speak indirectly, leaving the listener to figu
28、re out what the point is. Thus, while an American might say to a friend, “I don“t think that coat goes very well with the rest of your outfit,“ a Japanese might say, “Maybe other coats would look even better than the one you have on.“ Americans value a person who “gets right to the point.“ Japanese
29、are likely to consider such a person insensitive if not rude. The Chinese and Japanese languages are characterized by vagueness(模糊) and ambiguity (歧义). The precision and directness Americans associate with “the point“ cannot be achieved, at least not with any grace, in Chinese and Japanese. Speakers
30、 of those languages thus have to learn a new way of reasoning and expressing their ideas if they are going to communicate satisfactorily with Americans.（分数：12.50）(1).According to the passage, Americans expect speakers and writers to _.（分数：2.50）A.be clear about their main ideasB.give as much informat
31、ion as possibleC.express their personal viewsD.be honest about their true feelings(2).Which of the following peoples will tell a story to express what they have in mind?（分数：2.50）A.Americans.B.Africans.C.Japanese.D.Chinese.(3).In the sentence “I don“t think that coat goes very well with the rest of y
32、our outfit “, the word “outfit“ most probably means _.（分数：2.50）A.officeB.timeC.speechD.clothes(4).According to the passage, the Japanese may consider it unacceptable to be _.（分数：2.50）A.indirectB.straightforwardC.poorly-dressedD.curious(5).In order to communicate with Americans satisfactorily, speake
33、rs of Chinese need to _.（分数：2.50）A.learn the language wellB.change their way of thinkingC.be careful about their choice of wordsD.explain their reasons clearly五、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.50)You must be very careful when a woman asks you how she looks because you will never come up with a right answe
34、r. The problem is that women generally do not think of their looks in the same way that men do. Most men form all opinion of how they look in seventh grade, and they stick to it for the rest of their lives. Most of them think of themselves as average looking. But that does not bother them. Women do
35、not look at themselves this way. No matter how attractive a woman may appear to be to others, they think about their appearance as “not good enough“. Why do women have such low self-esteem? There are many complex psychological and societal reasons, but one reason might be that women grow up thinking
36、 they need to look like Barbie doll. This is a difficult appearance standard to live up to, although there is a multibillion-dollar beauty industry devoted to convincing women that they must try. I“m not saying men are superior, but you are not going to get a group of middle-aged men who apply cosme
37、tics(化妆品) to themselves in hope of looking more like Brad Pitt. Men would realize that this task was pointless and meaningless. Of course many women will argue that men, being shallow, want them to look that way. As I see, hey, just because we“re idiots, that doesn“t mean you have to be. So if you a
38、re a man, and a woman asks you how she looks, you can“t say she looks bad. But you also can“t say she looks great, because she“ll think you“re lying. Also, she suspects that you“re not qualified to judge anybody“s appearance. This is because you have shaving cream in your hair.（分数：12.50）(1).Which of
39、 the following statements is true?（分数：2.50）A.All women accept men“s praises for their looks.B.It is impossible for women to become beautiful.C.Women are less confident about their appearance.D.Most men think they are handsome and never worry about their looks.(2).Why does the problem of appearance n
40、ever make men worried?（分数：2.50）A.Because they believe they are handsome.B.Because women never care about men“s appearance.C.Because they don“t care about beauty.D.Because being average-looking is fine for men.(3).Which of the following might not be the reason for women to apply cosmetics to themselv
41、es?（分数：2.50）A.They are not satisfied with their looks.B.They are crazy to follow film stars.C.They believe that men want them to do so.D.They have low self-esteem in their appearance.(4).What is men“s proper reaction when a woman asks how she looks, according to this passage?（分数：2.50）A.To make a mod
42、erate comment on her looks.B.To keep silent or change a topic.C.To tell the woman that she is ugly.D.To tell the truth.(5).What would men think of their own use of cosmetics?（分数：2.50）A.It is useless.B.It is necessaryC.It is good.D.It is unacceptable六、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.50)Thousands of years ag
43、o man used handy rocks for his surgical operations. Later he used sharp bone or horn, metal knives and more recently, rubber and plastic and that was where we stuck, in surgical instrument terms, for many years. In the 1960s a new tool was developed, one which was, first of all, to be of great pract
44、ical use to the armed forces and industry, but which was also, in time, to change greatly the art and science of surgery. The tool is the laser (激光) and it is being used by more and more surgeons all over the world. As we all know, light is hot, any source of lightfrom the sun itself down to a simpl
45、e match burningwill give warmth. But light is usually spread out over a wide area. The light in a laser beam (激光束), however, is concentrated (密集). This means that a light with no more power than that produced by an ordinary electric light bulb becomes intensely strong as it is concentrated to a pinp
46、oint-sized (针尖大小的) beam. Experiments with these pinpoint beams showed researchers that different energy sources produce beams that have a particular effect on certain living cells. It is now possible for eye surgeons to operate on the back of human eye without harming the front of the eye, simply by
47、 passing a laser beam right through the eye-ball. No knives, no stitches (缝针), no unwanted damagea true surgical wonder. Operations which once made patients tired and in need of long period of recovery time now leave them feeling calm and comfortable. So much more difficult operations can now be tri
48、ed. The rapid development of laser techniques in the past ten years has made it clear that the future is likely to be very exciting. Perhaps some cancers will be treated with laser in a way that makes surgery not only safer but also more effective. Altogether, tomorrow may see more and more informat
49、ion coming to light on the diseases which can be treated medically.（分数：12.50）(1).The instruments of surgical operations up until 1960s can be described as _.（分数：2.50）A.traditionalB.complicatedC.magicalD.revolutionary(2).What changes have taken place since the appearance of laser in the 1960s?（分数：2.50）A.Industrial revolution has made medi
