Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and

12、 D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 10 Washington Irving was America s first man of letters to be known internationally. His works were received enthusiastically both in England and in the United States

13、. He was, in fact, one of the most successful writers of his time in the country, and at the same time winning the admiration of fellow writers like Scott in Britain and Poe and Hawthorne in the United States. The respect in which he was held partly owing to the man himself, with his warm friendline

14、ss, his good sense, his urbanity, his gay spirits, his artistic integrity, his love of both the Old World and the New. Thackeray described Irving as “ a gentleman, who, though himself born in no very high sphere, was most finished, polished, witty: socially the equal of the most refined Europeans. “

15、 In England he was granted an honorary degree from Oxford an unusual honor for a citizen of a young, uncultured nation and he received the medal of the Royal Society of Literature. America made him ambassador to Spain. Irving s background provides little to explain his literary achievements. A gifte

16、d but delicate child, he had little schooling. He studied law, but without zeal, and never did practice seriously. He was immune to his strict Presbyterian home environment, frequenting both social gatherings and the theater. 11 The main point of the first paragraph is that Washington Irving was_. (

17、 A) America s first man of letters ( B) a writer who had great success both in and outside his own country ( C) a man who was able to move from literature to politics ( D) a man whose personal charm enabled him to get by with basically inferior work 12 What is implied by the mention of Scott, Poe an

18、d Hawthorne? ( A) Irving enjoyed great popular admiration. ( B) Scott, Poe and Hawthorne were primarily responsible for Irving s success. ( C) Irving s work was not only popular, but also of high literary quality. ( D) More Americans than Britons admired Irving. 13 Which of the following best descri

19、bes the effect of Irving s Presbyterian background on his life? ( A) It fostered his love for the theater. ( B) It developed his skill in business. ( C) It prompted his interest in law. ( D) It had almost no effect on his life. 14 Which of the following best describes the effect of Irving s personal

20、 qualities on his literary success? ( A) His personal qualities were entirely responsible for his literary success. ( B) His personal qualities were primarily responsible for his literary success. ( C) His personal qualities had some effects on his literary success. ( D) His personal qualities had n

21、o effects on his literary success. 15 Why might Irving s literary ability have been surprising to the English? ( A) They feared competition from American writers. ( B) They did not expect the United States to produce good writers. ( C) They disapproved of the language American writers used. ( D) The

22、y thought of the United States as a purely commercial power. 15 Traditionally, universities have carried out two main activities: research and teaching. Many experts would argue that both these activities play a critical role in serving the community. The fundamental question, however, is how does t

23、he community want or need to be served? In recent years universities have been coming under increasing pressure from both the governments and the public to ensure that they do not remain “ivory towers(象牙塔 )“ of study separated from the realities of everyday life. University teachers have been encour

24、aged, and in some cases constrained(强迫 ), to provide more courses which produce graduates with the technical skills required for the commercial use. If Aristotle wanted to work in a university in the UK today, he would have a good chance of teaching computer science but would not be so readily emplo

25、yable as a philosopher. A post-industrial society requires large numbers of computer programmers, engineers, managers and technicians to maintain and develop its economic growth but “man“, as the Bible says, “does not live by bread alone. “ Apart from requiring medical and social services, which do

26、not directly contribute to economic growth, the society should also value and enjoy literature, music and the arts. Because they can also promote economic growth. A successful musical play, for instance, can contribute as much to the Gross National Product through tourist dollars as any other things

27、. 16 The main idea of the first paragraph is that_. ( A) traditional universities do a good job serving the society ( B) universities must meet the needs of the society ( C) research and teaching are of great importance in universities ( D) universities play an important role in our society 17 We ca

28、n infer from the second paragraph that_. ( A) the society is not satisfied with the present college education ( B) the governments interfere too much with college education ( C) teacher are forced to do what they don t like to do ( D) teachers dislike teaching commercially useful courses 18 The Aris

29、totle example is used to make the point that_. ( A) universities in the UK have produced too much good for graduates ( B) such abstract subjects as philosophy is no longer useful ( C) education should serve the social needs ( D) it is advisable for today s philosophers to know computer science 19 Ac

30、cording to the passage, literature, music and the arts_. ( A) do not contribute to economic growth at all ( B) are less useful to the society because they do not make direct contribution to economic growth ( C) are similar to medical and social services in their way of promoting economic growth ( D)

31、 should develop only when they are good for economic growth 20 The author believes that_. ( A) art is useful only when it is made into a money earner ( B) the promotion of economic growth is the only goal of today s society ( C) universities should not provide literature or art courses ( D) the soci

32、ety needs both technical skills and arts 20 All the useful energy at the surface of the earth comes from the activity of the sun. The sun heats and feeds creatures and mankind. Each year it provides men with two hundred million tons of grain and nearly ten million tons of wood, coal, oil, natural ga

33、s, and all other fuels are stored energy from the sun. Some was collected by this season s plants as carbon compounds. Some was stored by plants and trees ages ago. Even waterpower derives from the sun. Water turned into vapor by the sun fails as rain. It courses down the mountains and is converted

34、to electric power. Light transmits only the energy that comes from the sun s outer layer, and much of this energy that is directed towards the earth never arrives. About nine tenths of it is absorbed by the atmosphere of the earth. In fact, the earth itself gets only one half millionth of the suns e

35、ntire output of radiant energy. 21 The sun is the source of all of the following EXCEPT_. ( A) gasoline ( B) natural gas ( C) atomic power ( D) animal fat 22 Radiant energy is stored as carbon compounds by_. ( A) plants ( B) water ( C) rock ( D) creatures 23 The sun s energy provides us with all EXC

36、EPT _.

37、 of radiant energy, the earth receives_. ( A) one tenth ( B) one millionth ( C) all that comes from the surface of the sun ( D) a very small portion 25 Television has changed the lifestyle of people in every industrialized country in the world. In the United States, where sociologists have studied t

38、he effects, some interesting observations have been made. Television, although not essential, has become an important part of most people s lives. It alters people s ways of seeing the world: in many ways, it supports and sustains(维持 )modern life. Television has become a baby-sitter, an introducer o

39、f conversations, the major transmitter of culture and a keeper of tradition. Yet when what can be seen on TV in one day is critically analyzed, it becomes evident that television is not a teacher but a sustainer: the poor quality of programming does not elevate(提高 )people into greater understanding,

40、 but rather maintains and encourages the life as it exists. The primary reason for the lack of quality in American television is related to both the history of TV programming development and the economics of TV. Television in America began with the radio. Radio companies and their sponsors first exp

41、erimented with television. Therefore, the close relationship which the advertisers had with radio programs became the system for American TV. Sponsors not only paid money for time within programs, but many actually produced the programs. Thus, in American society, television is primarily concerned w

42、ith reflecting and attracting society rather than experimenting with new ideas. Advertisers want to attract the largest viewing audience possible. To do so requires that the programs be entertaining rather than educational, attractive rather than challenging. Television in America today remains, to

43、a large extent, with the same organization and standards as it had thirty years ago. The hope for further development and true achievement toward improving society will require a change in the entire system. 26 According to the author, American television is poor in quality because_. ( A) advertiser

44、s are interested in experimenting with new ideas ( B) it is still at an early stage of development, compared with the radio ( C) the programs have to be developed in the interests of the sponsors for economic reasons ( D) it is controlled by radio companies 27 The second paragraph is mainly about_.

45、( A) TV as the sustainer of American life ( B) TV as the major transmitter of culture ( C) the educational effect of TV on society ( D) the strong influence and the poor quality of American TV 28 In the authors view American TV should_. ( A) be critical but entertaining ( B) be creative and educatio

46、nal ( C) change with the development of society ( D) attract as many viewers as possible 29 The author believes that television in the United States has become important to most people because _. ( A) it promotes family unity ( B) it helps them develop their speaking ability ( C) it affects their li

47、fe in many ways ( D) it challenges society 30 The author s attitude towards American television is_. ( A) critical ( B) praising ( C) doubtful ( D) sympathetic 三、 Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%) Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choi

48、ces marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.
