Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete sentences.For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage1

When I was studying English at a training center in Washington D.C. in 1998, I shared a house with two young Americans, Jim, and Steve. Jim was studying French and Steve Chinese, both at the Foreign Service Institute. We shared many things in common, but we also thought and acted quite differently. Steve was interested in speaking Chinese. Healways tried every opportunity to talk with me with his very English-like pronunciation. I was often touched with his diligence. However, I wanted to practice English with him, too. So we often speak at the same time in the other’s mother tongue. Jim was fresh from college and the youngest of the three. He was going out all the time. The only time we met was at breakfast. There was a small round table in our kitchen, where we sat around to enjoy our food. Steve had Chinese fast food such as dumplings or noodles, and I ate bread and boiled eggs. But Jim often just drank a cup of tea because he had nothing in his fridge. He was too busy dating pretty French girls to do any shopping. I often offered him some of my food. But Steve told me in his poor Chinese that I didn’t need to do that. He said that it was Jim’s own fault and that it served him right. Although he was learning Chinese, he still held his American sense of value.

Two years later, I returned to china. The three of us still keep in touch. Jim now works in a travel agency in Paris.

He got married to one of the pretty girls. He wrote to tell us that now he can enjoy a delicious breakfast with his beautiful wife every morning in their comfortable living room. Steve wants to work in china. And I’m helping him with this. I have introduced him to the dean of the Overseas Section of our university. He is very interested in Steve. He wants to know if Steve can work here teaching the overseas students Chinese. I have sent the message to Steve. I’m sure he’d be very happy to accept the job. However, I hope he could try harder to improve himself. Otherwise, all the overseas students would speak with his terrible pronunciation!

Passage2

How often one hears children wishing they were grown-up and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child —things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains: He is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things or being punished for what he has done wrong. Therefore, a child is not happy as he wishes to be.

When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room, he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself intotrouble. If, however, he works hard, goes by the law and has good health, he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.

Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all,they can, if their life has been a useful one, fell the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving everything to others.

66. The happiest people should be those who ______.

A. face up to difficulties in life

B. hope to be young again

C. enjoy life in different age

D. wish to be grown up

67. The word “they” underlined in Line 5, part 2 refers to ____.

A. older people

B. new things

C. children

D. interests

68. A child has his pains because____.

A. He can not do whatever he wants to

B. He is not allowed to play in rain

C. He has a lot of new things to learn

D. He can not play at the seaside freely

69. When a child becomes a grown-up, he is supposed to ____.

A. live comfortably

B. take responsibilities

C. make progress in job

D. impress the society

70. The best title of the passage might be ____.

A. Pains and Ages

B. Differences in Ages

C. The Best Age to Be

D. Happiness and Ages

66-70 CBABD

67. 【答案】B

【精析】词语理解题。题干的大意是：第二段第三行画线的单词“they”指的是。从文中第二段第四句可知，生活总是会给孩子的世界增加一些新的东西，而老年人已经对这些新东西失去了兴趣，因为对他们来说这些东西是众所周知的。所以“they”指代的是“new things”，故选项 B正确。

Passage3

Life really should be one long journey of joy for children who are born with a world of wealth at their tiny feet. But experts on psychological research now believe that silver spoons can leave a bitter taste. If suicide statistics are a sign of happiness, then the rich are a miserable lot. Figures show that it is the rich who most often do away with themselves.

Dr. Robert Coles, an internationally famous doctor, is the world’s top expert on the influence of money on children.

He has written a well-received book on the subject, The Privileged Ones, and his research shows that too much money in the family can cause as many problems as too little. “Obviously there are certain advantages to being rich,” says the 53-year-old doctor, “such as better health, education and future work expectation. But most important is the quality of family life. Money can’t buy love.”

It can buy a lot of other things, though, and that’s where the trouble starts. Rich kids have so much to choose from that they often become confused. Their parents’ over favoring can make them spoiled. They tend to travel more than other children, from home to home and country to country, which often makes them feel restless.

“But privileged children do have a better sense of their positions in the world,” adds Mr. Coles, “and they are more self-assured.”

Today’s rich parents perhaps have realized that their riches can be more of a burden than a favor to their children.

Passage 4

Charlene, a 16-year-old student at a high school, found herself faced with a maths test to which she knew none of the answers. Rather than fail, she took the test out with her and filled in the answers with the help of her friends. During a break, she got back into the classroom without being seen, crumpled（揉皱）the test with her shoe, and left it lying on the floor. The teacher thought it had been dropped when the tests were collected; she corrected it, and Charlene received a B.

Cheating is, of course, nothing new. But today, educators are finding that cheating on the part of students has become more frequent than in the past. Whether it is copying a friend's homework, using a prepared sheet on an exam,stealing advance copies of a final, writing down rules in one's hand, or paying someone else to write a term paper,cheating appears to have gained acceptance among a growing number of students between 13 and 19.

In a 1978 study of cheating at twenty-two high schools in Georgia, it was found that cheating was common among good and poor students alike-although both boys and girls said they thought boys cheated more.

Why is student cheating on the rise? No one really knows. Some blame cheating on a general loss of good values among today's youth. They point to facts showing increased damage of public things and school stealing and think that reports, such as Watergate（水门事件）have disappointed youth about the honesty of people in higher positions.

Others think that today's youth are far more practical than their forefathers（先辈）. In the late sixties and early seventies, students were filled with imaginations about changing the world, but today's students feel great stress to succeed.

76. According to Paragraph 1, Charlene took the test out because ____.

A. her friends could answer none of the problems

B. she tore the test paper to pieces

C. she stepped her shoes on the test paper

D. she did not want to fail in the math test

77. Charlene passed the test because ____.

A. she answered all the questions by herself

B. she did the test by cheating

C. she persuaded her teacher to give her a B

D. she returned to the classroom to redo the test

78. Which of the following is not an example to show that cheating is becoming more and more common?

A. A student pays another for doing a test paper.

B. A student writes down something to be tested before an exam.

C. A student gets well prepared in his studies before an exam.

D. A student gets homework from his classmate and then copies it.

79. The 1978 study of cheating in Georgia shows that ____.

A. only students in the 24 high schools cheated in examinations

B. both good and poor students cheated in examinations

C. boys liked cheating while girls did not like it

D. more girls cheated in examinations than boys did

80. One of the facts for the rise of cheating is that ____.

A. more and more public things are damaged

B. good values disappoint students

C. more and more students begin to steal

D. honest people are in higher positions
