III. Reading Comprehension (35分)
Section A
Directions: For each
blank in the following passage, there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C
and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones
can be wonderful, liberating tools of 50 , freeing us from the confines (界限) of an office and providing more leisure time, they
often do the exact 51 . Cell phone use has 52 the line between work and non-work time,
increasing stress and tension within families and between friends. As Eric
Slate, author of Technoslave commented in his essay:
"It seems the more '
53 ' we are, the more
detached (不相連的) we
become."
There is a risk of being too connected. While
I was hiking in Spain,
I got 54 a few times. I saw new sights
and was surprised by 55 landscapes and towns I wouldn't have otherwise come
across. Back in the US,
whenever I got lost, I would always call a friend for 56 on my cell phone. With a cell phone,
you're less 57 to go down the wrong street and see new
things or unexpectedly meet new people.
So, when I recently returned home to Burlington, Vermont,
I 58 my cell phone and traded in an old, rusty
bike for a regular landline telephone that was connected to the wall and
everything. Now, I go outside and don't make a phone call or check my phone. 59 , I've seen things in my neighbourhood I 60 noticed before, like a big flower
garden around the block and artwork and sculptures down the road. Now that I'm
not __61___ my cell phone, I've met new people on the street and at the
supermarket, started 62 with neighbours
I haven't spoken with before and talk with my friends face-to-face instead of
over the phone. .
Instead of 63 me from the world, getting rid of my cell
phone has helped me become more in touch with my community. I am no longer a 64 of my cell phone.

Section B
Directions: Read the
following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or
unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C,
and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the
passage you have just read.
A
After my husband died suddenly from a heart attack, my world crashed
around me. My six children were all under 10, and I was burdened with the
responsibilities of earning a living, and caring for the children. I was
fortunate to find a wonderful housekeeper to care for the children during the
week, but from Friday nights to Monday mornings, the children and I were alone.
One Friday evening I came home from work to find a big pretty German Shepherd(牧羊犬) on our doorstep. This dog
seemed to intend to enter the house. The children liked “German” immediately
and begged me to let him in. I agreed to let him sleep in the basement. That
night I slept peacefully for the first time in many weeks.
The following morning we made phone calls and checked lost-and-found ads
for German’s owner, but with no results.
On Sunday I had planned to take the children on a picnic. Since I thought
it best to leave German behind in case his owner came by, we drove off without
him. When we stopped to get gas, we were amazed to see German racing to the gas
station after us. No way was he going to be left behind.
Monday morning I let him out for a run. He didn’t come back and we were
all disappointed. We were convinced that we would never see him again. We were
wrong. The next Friday evening, German was back on our doorstep. Again he
stayed until Monday morning, when our housekeeper arrived.
This pattern repeated itself every weekend for almost 10 months. We grew
more and more fond of German. We took comfort in his strong, warm presence, and
we felt safe with him near us. As German became part of the family, he
considered it his duty to check every bedroom to be sure each child was cozy in
bed.
Each week, between German’s visits, I grew a little stronger, a little
braver and more able to handle; every weekend we were no longer alone and
enjoyed his company. Then one Monday morning we patted him on the head and let
him out for what turned out to be the last time. We never saw German again.

A. it was needed most B.
the writer became strong enough
C. the writer was away on a business trip D.

66. The family planned to go on a

67. The writer was ________ the German
Shepherd.

grateful to C.

B
To: manager@
tastytreat.com.ca
Date: Monday, 7 October, 3:34p.m.
From: raymondyuen@ canada.net
Subject: Complaint
Dear Mr.
Price,
I have eaten in your restaurant many times and
have always been happy with the food and service. This makes what happened last
Saturday even more disappointing.
It
was my son’s birthday so we booked a no-smoking table at your restaurant for
7:30 p.m. We arrived on time but were told that our table was not yet ready. At
8:00 p.m., we were given a table in the smoking section. I asked to move but I
was told that there were no other tables. A lot of people were smoking so it
was uncomfortable and unhealthy.
Our first waitress, Janet, was very polite and
helpful. She gave us free drinks for waiting so long. Our food also came
quickly and looked fresh and tasty. When my wife had eaten most of her meal,
she found a dead cockroach (蟑螂) in her vegetables. She was
shocked and wanted to leave. At first, the waitress told us it was a piece of
garlic(蒜). When we told her that garlic does not have legs, she apologized and
took the food away.
We
asked for the bill, expecting not to pay for my wife’s meal. Nobody came. After
15 minutes, I asked to see the manager. The head waiter told us that you were
on holiday. I complained again about the horrible cockroach. He told me Janet
had finished work. He didn’t believe my story and gave me a bill for three meals.
I argued with him but was forced to pay.
The waitress, Janet, was always friendly, but I
would like an apology from your impolite head waiter and a full refund (退款) for our
meal. It cost $68. Until then, I will not be eating at your restaurant or
recommending it to anyone.
You
can contact me at 742-3254 or through e-mail if you want more information.
Thank
you for your attention.
Yours sincerely,
Raymond Yuen

C
Paris has the Eiffel Tower;
New York has the Statue of Liberty; and Brussels, the Manneken
Piss.
Think of the Belgian capital and, if
anything, you think of the small peeing (撒尿)
boy ____ a 60-meter-high
bronze figure standing on a block, supplying a constant stream of water to the
basin under him.
Some might laugh. But for Jacques Stroobants,
the statue is up there with the best of them.
“I’m proud of him. People come from all around the world to see him,” says
60-year-old Stroobants with a fatherly glance at the
little boy.
As the most famous landmark of Brussels,
Manneken Piss has a very special place in the heart
of Belgians.
The original Manneken Piss dates back to 1388,
but the statue tourists see today dates from 1619 when the city built a second
one after the original was destroyed.
Many stories go round Manneken Piss. Nobody
knows why he was made. One story is that he saved Brussels by putting out the flames of a
deadly fire with his well-aimed piss. But the most believable story is that the
boy, the son of a wealthy man, was kidnapped. The father had a statue built in
honor of the way his son was found-peeing against a tree.
Perhaps best-known for his naked beauty, the “peeing boy” has also been
clothed in some of the finest clothes money can buy.
Stroobants has been changing his
clothes for the last 29 years. On average, he has clothes on 300 days a year.
And on special days, he pees beer.
A few of the ways he’s been dressed are; a football player, Mozart and an
army general. Now, he has more than 600 pieces of clothes.
There is no strict charge for those wishing to provide clothes for the
little boy. But certain conditions must be met.
“The clothes cannot include either advertising or political message,” said
Stroobants, because they would cheapen the national
treasure.
But Manneken Piss is still something local
people can make money from ___ by selling all kinds of souvenirs.
72. Which of the following is NOT true about Maneken Piss?
A.
It has a history of more than 600 years. B.
It stands in Brussels.
C.
It is best known for the clothes he wears. D.
It is 60 meters high.
73. The Manneken Piss has a
special place in the heart of Belgians because
.
A.
it’s good-looking with water running constantly
B.
it brings joys to people who see it
C.
it helps people make beer
D.
it’s a symbol of the city.
74. We can learn from the passage that
.
A.
for most of the year, the boy is naked
B.
Stroobants is probably in charge of taking care of
the statue
C.
people can provide any clothes for Manneken Piss
D.
people make money by advertising Manneken Piss
75．Which of the following is not true according to the
passage?
A. Tourists cannot provide
clothes for the peeing boy.
B. The Manneken
Piss has attracted many visitors.
C. The peeing boy is the
national treasure of Belgium.
D. Local people make money
by selling souvenirs.
D
When
companies do business overseas, they come in contact with people from different
cultures. These individuals often speak a different language and have
their own particular custom and manners. These differences can
create problems.
For example, in France,
business meetings begin immediately at the scheduled time and everyone is
expected to be there. Foreign business people who are slow in
acting are often left outside to cool their heels as a means of letting them
know the importance of promptness（準(zhǔn)時）. Unless
one is aware of such expected behaviors he may end up insulting the people with
whom he hopes to establish trade relations.
A second traditional
problem is that of monetary conversions(貨幣兌換). For example, if a
trade is conducted with Russia,
payment may be made in rubles. Of course, this particular type of
money used in Russia
is of little value to the American firm. It is, therefore, necessary to
exchange the foreign money to American dollars. How much are these
Russian rubles worth in terms of dollars? This exchange rate is
determined by every market, where the money of countries are bought and
sold. Thus there is an established rate, although it is often
different from day to day. For example, the ruble may be worth 0.75
on Monday and 0.72 on Tuesday because of an announced wheat shortage in Russia.
In addition, there is the problem associated with exchange at 0.72.
Some financial institutions may be unwilling to pay this price, feeling
that the ruble will sink much lower over the next week. As a
result, exchange may finally come at 0.69. These
"losses" must be accepted by the company as one of the costs of doing
business overseas.
A third unique problem
is trade barriers. For one reason or another, all countries impose
trade barriers on certain goods crossing their borders. Some trade
barriers are directly related to exports. For example, the United States
permits strategic military material to be shipped abroad only after government
permission has been obtained. Most trade barriers, however, are
designed to restrict import. Two of the most common import barriers are
quotas and tariffs.
76. The best title for the passage would be ___.
A. How to Succeed in
International Trade
B. Monetary Conversion
C. Trade Barriers
D. Unique Problems in
International Trade
77. In France,
slow business people ___.
A. are often insulted
B. often suffer from
coldness
C. are often left outdoors
waiting
D. are often asked to polish
their shoes
78. According to the passage, exchange rates ___.
A. seldom change
B. are determined by
financial institutions
C. are agreed upon by two
trading countries
D. vary from day to day
79. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?
A. Misunderstanding may occur because of the culture differences.
B. Exchange rate can bring losses when doing international trade.
C. Most trade barriers are designed to
restrict import.
D. All the exports must get the
permission of the government.

Section C
Directions: Read the
following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each
paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
A Preparation for taking a citizenship
test
B Citizenship tests in European
countries
C Cultural differences and conflicts
D New US
Citizenship Test
E Different views on the new citizenship
test
F Goal of the new citizenship test
80.
Last week, a sample of the new US citizenship
exam was released by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services（US-CIS）.
It will be tried out in 10 cities early next year to replace the current test
in 2008. Instead of asking how many stripes the US flag has, as the current test
does, the new one asks why there are l3 stripes. Instead of having to name the
branches of government, an applicant is asked to explain why there are three.
81.
The newly released US
citizenship exam has included more information and knowledge. People who take
it need to know more about the adopted country and have a deeper insight into
its culture and values. “The goal is to make it more meaningful.” explains
Emilio Gonzalez, director of the US―CIS. Immigrants who pass it are
expected to have a better “understanding and respect” for US civic values,
Gonzalez says.
82.
The US isn't the only country dealing
with citizenship tests that aim to get a “shared commitment” from immigrants
for their adopted country's “values”. In recent years, in addition to the usual
requirement of language／work
skills and economic status, several European countries have adopted citizenship
tests. Britain
introduced a new citizenship test last November. In March, a new Dutch law took
effect requiring all would-be immigrants to take a citizenship test. It involved
watching a video showing nude（裸體的）women
bathing at beaches and gay（同性戀的）men
kissing in public. The aim was to ensure that “newcomers will be comfortable
with the country's liberal social mores（風(fēng)俗）”.
83.
Europe
has been known for welcoming immigrants for decades. But, today, the fact is
that some immigrants are kept apart from local citizens by culture and they
become hostile (敵對的) to each
other. Promoting unity has become a major concern for European countries, after
the rioting in Muslim ghettoes（少數(shù)民族聚居區(qū)）in
France and the killing of Dutch public figures by religious extremists.
84.
Officials believe that a person's attachment
to a country can be tested by his or her knowledge of the country. However,
some critics say that the changes can do little to help people assimilate（同化）themselves. “Immigration is a culture war today. Is
giving a new test the right way to lessen the accusations in that fight?” says
Ali Noorani, of the Massachusetts Immigrant and
Refugee Advocacy Coalition（難民辯護聯(lián)盟）.

7. W: I’m moving to a new place tomorrow.
Could you possibly give me a hand？

too？
Q: What is the man’s suggestion for the woman？

the talk?
9. W: Jim, I can see that you simply couldn’t give up smoking.

this conversation?

Section B Passages
Questions 11 through 13 are
based on the following passage.
In the next few
decades, people are going to travel very differently from the way they do
today. Everyone is going to drive electrically-powered cars. So people won’t
worry about running out of gas. Some of the large automobile companies are
really moving ahead with this new technology. F&C Motors, a major auto
company, for example, is holding a press conference next week. After the press
conference, the company will present its new electrically-operated models.
Transportation in
the future won’t be limited to the ground. Many people predict that traffic
will quickly move to the sky. In the coming years, instead of radio reports
about road conditions and highway traffic, news reports will talk about traffic
jams in the sky. But the sky isn’t the limit. You will probably even be able to
take a trip to the moon. Instead of listening to regular air-plane announcements,
you will hear someone say: the spacecraft to the moon leaves in 10 minutes.
Please check your equipment. And remember no more than 10 ounces of carry-on
baggage are allowed.
Questions:
11. What will be used to power cars in the next few decades?
12. What will future news reports focus on
when talking about transportation？
13. What will passengers be asked to do when
they travel to the moon？
Questions 14 through 16 are based on the following news.
A huge tornado
catches a woman trapped in her vehicle and carries her a quarter of a mile from
town. The woman suffered a broken leg and minor neck injuries, but she was more
worried about her cat swept away by the storm. She’s offering a $1, 000 reward
for the cat.
Bad news for Britain: adding milk to tea ruins the health
benefits of the drink, according to a Germany study. Tea is believed to
help relax, and enable a smoother flow of blood. Scientists at the Charity Hospital
in Berlin
tested a kind of black tea on 16 healthy women volunteers aged more than 50.
The study points out that milk prevents tea from carrying out health-making
work. This could explain why Britain,
a nation where almost everybody adds milk to their cup, fails to make headway
against a kind of heart disease.
A
series of bombings at three western hotels in Amman,
the capital of Jordan,
on Nov. 9 caused 58 deaths. A terrorist organization has claimed the
responsibility for the attacks. The question“why”was immediately raised after the attacks. Its foreign
policy might be able to explain why Jordan became the target. Jordan is a friendly country of the United States and has worked closely with Washington in the war on
terrorism, especially since the 9.11 attacks.
14. Which is the best headline for news item
one？
15. What is the second news story about?
16. Why was Jordan attacked？
Section C Longer Conversations

There is a morning flight on China Eastern Airlines. Are you traveling alone,
sir?
M: Yes, I am. What time does the
