He was glad and stared at it for some time, then wrote "105" on the corner of the trademark with a pencil, meaning he had already drunk 105 bottles of the famous wine. Two days later a stranger came. He offered to pay 5 yuan for the empty Mao Tai bottle. Mr. Chen was pleased and sold it. Several weeks later, his second son brought him another bottle of Mao Tai. While examining and enjoying it, he was suddenly terrified-he found "105"-the very mark on it. 71. The story is mainly about _______.

According to the story, who do you say learned a lesson? A. The stranger B. Mr. Chen C. His neighbour D. Mr. Chen's eldest son Passage Four Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it is painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you're "hot". That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: "Get up, John! You'll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam (鼓起干劲) and work better at your low point. Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get with a leisurely yawl and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble some search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. When ever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours. 76. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably _______. he is a lazy person he refuses to follow his own energy cycle he is not sure when his energy is low he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening 77. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage? A. Unawareness of energy cycles. B. Familiar monologues. C. A change in a family member's energy cycle. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family member. 78. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should _____. A. change his energy cycle C. get up earlier than usual B. overcome his laziness D. go to bed earlier 79. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______. help to keep your energy for the day's work help you to control your temper early in the day enable you to concentrate on your routine work keep your energy cycle under control all day 80. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE? Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy. Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day. Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle. Children have energy cycles, too. Ⅴ.

Passage One All the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!” For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.” One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!” 61. The housewives learnt about the of free goods _______. A. on TV B. from the manager C. at the supermarket D. from the newspaper 62. Mrs. Edwards ________. A. is always very lucky B. had no friends C. hoped to get free shopping D. gets disappointed easily 63. Mrs. Edwards’s husband tried to ________.

A. buy another thing B. talk to the manager C. pay for her shopping D. find her shopping 65. Mrs. Edwards must have been ________. A. pleased B. delighted C. proud D. disappointed Deep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns. The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry. For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water. Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown. 66. The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________. part of a historical cave system the biggest underground lake in the world listed in the Guinness Book of World Records the largest body of water in Tennessee 67. The Craighead Caverns have been known ________. A. through history B. since the time of the Indian nations C. since 1905 D. since divers explored them 68. Who located the Lost Sea in recent times? A. The Cherokee Indians. B. Tourists. C. Ben Sands. D. Scientists. 69. What was found in “The Council Room”? A. A small natural opening. B. A large cave. C. Another series of rooms. D. Many old Indian objects. 70. It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____. A. an underground testing site B. an Indian meeting ground C. a tourist attraction D. a motor boat race course Passage Three Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip. But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent. For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”. 71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______. A. the year the author wrote the article B. 1977 C. any year between 1997 and 1983 D. 1983 72. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______. several studies have been done in the past few years the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s health adults have especially made studies in this field eating little in the morning is good for health 73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance” means ______. anyone without breakfast does improve his performance not giving people breakfast improve performance having breakfast does not improve performance, either people having breakfast do improve their performance 74. The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______. A. stories, poems, plays, etc. B. written works on a particular subject C. any printed material D. the modern literature of America 75.

The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生). It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies. Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time. While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity. 76. College education is _______ in America.

Writing In Money Everything? I don’t think money is everything, but we can’t do without it. Fox example, money can’t buy us happiness and a good education. And for another example, money can’t buy us good health and a long life. But we can not live without money. We need it for our daily necessities such as food, clothes and transportation. What’s more, we need it to live a better life. In short, we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages. |
