Part II Reading comprehension
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the following questions according to the passage you have just read.
(1)
Americans love pets. And it‘s not just puppy lovers, either. Many pet owners treat their furry friends as part of the family. Sometimes they spice up their pets‘ lives with entertaining videos and amusing toys. If they have an eye for fashion, pet owners can dress their pets in stylish clothes. For special occasions, they can use canine perfume to make their dogs smell well, less beastly. You might say Americans treat their pets like they treat their children— sometimes even better.
In America, there are more households with pets than those with children. At least 43 percent of U.S homes have pets of some sort. Exotic creatures, such as monkeys, snakes and even wolves, find a home with some Americans. More common pets include tropical fish, mice and birds. But the all-time favorites are cats and dogs, even at the White House. Americans sometimes have strong feelings about whether dogs or cats make better pets. ―Dog people‖ and ―cat people‖ often enjoy friendly rivalries.
Leading a dog‘s life in America isn‘t a bad thing. Many grocery stores sell gourmet pet foods to owners eager to please their pets. In Houston, Texas, dogs can have their dinner delivered to their homes, just like pizza. Well-to-do canines can attend doggy daycare centers while their owners work. Pets can even accompany their owners on vacation. Fancy hotels are beginning to accommodate both men and beast. Furry guests at Four Seasons Hotels can enjoy gourmet meals served on fine china and sleep in soft beds.
Beneath the fluffy luxuries, there lies a basic American belief: Pets have a right to be treated well. At least 75 animal welfare organizations exist in America. These provide care and adoption services for homeless and abused animals. Veterinarians can give animals an incredible level of medical care for an incredible price. To pay for the high-tech health care, people can buy health insurance for their pets. And when it‘s time to say good-bye, owners can bury their pets in a respectable pet cemetery.
The average American enjoys having pets around, and for good reason. Researchers have discovered that interacting with animals lowers a person‘s blood pressure. Dogs can offer protection from burglars and unwelcome visitors. Cats can help rid the home of unwelcome pests. Little creatures of all shapes and sizes can provide companionship and love. In many cases, having a pet prepares a young couple for the responsibilities of parenthood. Pets even encourage social relationships. They give their owners an appearance of friendliness, and they provide a good topic of conversation.
Pets are as basic to American culture as hot dogs or apple pie. To Americans, pets are not just property, but a part of the family. After all, pets are people.
121.What‘s the meaning of ―spice‖ in paragraph 1?
A. add interest to

C. People who like the dog and the cat often relate very well.
D. People who like the dog and the cat enjoy joking argument.
123.Why does the author say Americans have good reason for keeping pets?
A. Because pets can please their owners.
B. Because pets make their owners more friendly.
C. Because pet owners can talk to their pets.

A. They have no food to eat and no place to love in.

If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington(1876—1947), concluded from other men‘s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favourable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of larger numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man‘s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes an all nature.
Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking.
126.According to the selection, your intelligence probably __________.
A. stays the same throughout the year
B. varies from day to day
C. changes with the seasons
D. changes from year to year
127.Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have __________.
A. a great effect on everyone‘s intelligence
B. some effect on most person s‘ intelligence
C. some effect on a few persons‘ intelligence
D. no effect on most persons‘ intelligence
128.It seems that the cold of winter __________.
A. is the worst season for thinking
B. is the best time for thinking
C. is better for thinking than in very warm weather
D. increases the ability to think
129.One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that __________.
A. all nature, including man, is growing then
B. it lasts longer than the other seasons
C. it is cool
D. both A and C
130.According to the selection, any vacations from thinking should be taken __________.
A. several times throughout the year
B. during spring and fall
C. during the summer
D. as seldom as possible

Birds help us in different ways. Some birds kill enormous quantities of insects, which they
feed to their young. Many birds eat insects throughout the year.
It has been found that during the summer all the birds of a certain state together probably ate over 20,000 bushels of insects a day! Most of these insects were harmful. Think what would happen if all these insects were not killed. Trees and crops would be destroyed, and the air would be filled with insects.
Some birds are thought of as policemen. All summer long, wrens, robins, and many other birds search for all kinds of insects. All day long, swallows and flycatchers are sweeping the air clean of flying insects. At night whippoorwills and nighthawks continue to patrol the air for flying insects.
Many of our common birds are mostly seed eaters. These birds eat large quantities of weed seeds. Weeds keep cultivated plants from growing properly. Farmers and gardeners must fight weeds constantly if they wish good crops or attractive gardens. If it were not for the seed-eating birds, the farmer‘s task would be much harder. A large seed-eating bird, such as the snow bunting, can eat a thousand seeds of pigweed at one meal.
Some of our larger birds are very useful in killing harmful small animals, such as mice and gophers. Such birds are often called birds of prey. The animals that they kill often do much damage to our crops. The hawks and owls are the most helpful birds in this group. The hawks work during the day, and the owls work at night.
Some of our other large birds are useful in eating dead animals or other refuse that would cause bad smells if left to decay. These birds are called scavengers. The turkey buzzard is one of
our best scavengers.
131.The sentence ―Weeds keep cultivated plants from growing properly‖ in Paragraph 4 means ______.
A. Weeds are helpful to the growth of cultivated plants
B. Weeds will keep plants growing in the right way
C. Weeds are useful for the cultivation of plants through growing properly
D. Weeds will do harm to the cultivated plants for their proper growth
132.The ―snow bunting‖ mentioned in the passage is most probably a bird that ______.
A. lives on the snow
B. feeds on pigweed
C. is found in gardens
D. is a seed eater
133.Birds of prey are a particular type of birds that _______.
A. work either during the day or at night
B. kill only small animals, such as mice and gophers
C. kill animals that damage our crops
D. kill animals as their food
134.Which of the following types of birds are NOT mentioned in the passage? _______.
A. Birds that feed on crops

Want to tell a story that will keep your listeners on the edge of their seats? Here are some tips from professional storyteller, Leticia Pizzino, who lives in Salt Lake City and is currently on a six-week storytelling tour.
It sounds pretty basic, but every good story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. When you begin the story, give enough details about the setting and characters so that listeners can create their own pictures in their minds. Describe the scene and tell something about the people and the time so that your listeners know where they are.
Your story should have some kinds of challenge or problem for the characters to solve. This is the heart of your story, and it should be something your listeners can understand. Maybe they had to deal with a similar challenge of their own.
Even if the setting of your story is another galaxy far, far away, the challenge the characters face should be something your listeners can relate to. It might be helping a friend, choosing between good and evil, getting back home, or finding something that was lost. No matter where the story takes place, it can be about a subject or problem people face in their own lives right here.
The story must have a good ending. It doesn‘t have to be a happy ending, although these are the most fun, b ut it does need to conclude. Don‘t leave any loose ends. Your listeners should feel a sense of completion when the story is over.
Many storytellers use various things to help them bring their stories to life. They may add music or sound effects (bell, whistles, drum, even recorded sounds). They might use puppet, props, or costumes to help people imagine what is happening. And letting your audience participate in the story can also make it more fun. (Have them make sound effects, hold props, or sing along.)
Pick a story you like, because it won‘t be fun for your listeners if it isn‘t fun for you. Practice your story, using a tape recorder if you can. Listen to the tape and try to improve. Then, when you‘re ready, find yourself an audience and take it away!

Mr. Smith is well-known in Washington because of his many social blunders. He always likes to attend the various social functions because he wants to expand his circle of friends. Whenever he is invited, he goes, unless he is ill.
Recently he received an invitation to a fashionable banquet. Although he did not know the hostess, he accepted the invitation. He was secretly very pleased, because he felt that his reputation as a desirable guest was growing.
When he arrived at the banquet hall, he found that about one hundred people had been invited. He began to move around the hall. He spoke to other guests whether he knew them or not. He soon realized that he had never met any of the other people present, although they seemed to know each other.
At dinner, he was seated beside a very dignified woman. The woman tried to be friendly even though she had never met Mr. Smith before. She spoke politely, whenever he spoke to her. Between the first and second course of the meal, she turned to Mr. Smith and said, ―Do you see that gray-haired man at the end of the table? The one with the glasses.‖
―Ah, yes. Who is he?‖ asked Smith.
―He‘s the Secretary of the Interior!‖ she replied.
Mr. Smith said: ―So that‘s the Secretary of the Interior! I‘m af raid that I find very little to admire about him, although he is the Secretary.‖
The woman stiffened and did not reply. Smith continued in spite of her coldness. ―I really can‘t see how he received his appointment, unless he is perhaps a relative of the President.‖―It hardly matters whether you like the Secretary or not,‖ she said. ―He was chosen because the President thought he was the man for the job. If he does the job well, you should have no complaint.‖
―That‘s just it,‖ persisted Smith. ―No one does the things he does, unless he is a complete fool!‖
―Sir,‖ said the woman in all her dignity. ―Do you know who I am?‖
―No,‖ replied Smith.
―I am the Secretary‘s wife,‖ she said coldly. Mr. Smith was flabbergasted, but he went on in spite of his embarrassment.
―Madam, do you know who I am?‖
―No, I don‘t,‖ the woman replied.
―Thank goodness!‖ exclaimed Mr. Smith, as he quickly left the table.

How men first learned to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain sings, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds and which could be written down,. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their associations —the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts ion words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
156.The origin of language is __________.
A. legend handed down from the past
B. matter that is hidden or secret
C. a question difficult to answer
D. a problem not yet solved
157.One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions was that __________.
A. they could agree upon certain sings

D. they could combine them
158.What is true about words?
A. They are used to express feelings only.
B. They can not be written down.
C. They are simply sounds.
D. They are mysterious.
159.The real power of words exists in their __________.
A. properties
B. characteristics
C. peculiarity
D. representative functions
160.Which of the following statements about the real poet is not true?
A. He is no more than a master of words.
B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.
C. His style is always charming.
D. His poems can move men to tears.

Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same comment is made from generation to generation and it is always true. It has never been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom.
They grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not blindly accept the ideas of their elders. This is as it should be. Every new generation is different from the one that preceded it. Today the difference is very marked indeed.
The old always assume that they know best for the simple reason that they have been around a bit longer. They don‘t like to feel that their values are being questioned or threatened. And this is precisely what the young are doing. They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and disturbing their complacency. They take leave to doubt that the older generation has created the best of all possible words. What they reject more than anything is conformity. Office hours, for instance, are nothing more than enforced slavery. Wouldn‘t people work best if they were given complete freedom and responsibility? And what about clothing? Who said that all the men in the world should wear drab grey suits and convict haircuts? If we turn our minds to more serious matters, who said that human differences can best be solved through conventional politics or by violent means? Why have the older generation so often used violence to solve their problems? Why are they so unhappy and guilt-ridden in their personal lives, so obsessed with mean ambition and the desire to amass more and more possessions? Can anything be right with the rat-race? Haven‘t the old lost touch with all that is important in life?
These are not questions the older generation can shrug off lightly. Their record over the past forty years or so hasn‘t been exactly spotless. Traditionally, the young have turned to their elders for guidance. Today, the situation might be reversed. The old- if they are prepared to admit it- could learn a thing or two from their children. One of the biggest lessons they learn is that enjoyment is not from their children. One of the biggest lessons they learn is that enjoyment is not ―sinful‖. Enjoyment is a principle one could apply to all aspects of life. It is surely not wrong to live in the present rather than in the past or future. This emphasis on the present is not only to be expected because the young have grown up under the shadow of the bomb: the constant threat of complete annihilation. This is their glorious heritage. Can we be surprised that they should so often question the sanity of the generation that bequeathed it?
161.Which of the following statements about the young is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. The young are better educated and have a lot more money.
B. The young are selfish and only care about themselves.
C. The young are not so dependent on their parents.
D. The young enjoy more freedom.
162.According to the author, what are the young doing?
A. They are enjoying themselves.
B. They are appealing for more freedom.
C. They are questioning their elder s‘ values.
D. They are pursuing the latest fashion.
163.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?
A. The old could learn something from the young.
B. The young should turn to their elders for guidance.
C. The old and the young should live in harmony.
D. The old know best out of their experience.
164.What might be the best title for this passage?
A. Bridge the generation gap.
B. Ease the conflict between generations.
C. The younger generation knows best.
D. Challenge the old values.
165.What‘s the author‘s attitude towards the young?
A. Critical
B. Positive.
C. Indifferent.
D. Doubtful.

The most common form of entrainment in the U.S.A. is television. Nearly everyone watches television at some regular time in their dai1y lives, whether in the morning, at night or on weekends. Most families have color televisions and many have more than one set.
Since its beginning, the television industry in the U. S. A. has been controlled by three companies. Those companies have formed networks of television stations in cities across the country. Each station televises its company's television program. The three national networks are ABC –American Broadcasting Company. CBS—Colombia Broadcasting system and NBC—National Broadcasting Company. Each network has news features, dramatic presentation, comedies and sports events. Each network competes for a larger percentage of the television audience by trying to present programs with wide popular appeal. The programs are financed by advertising. Companies pay the television networks to display their products on television. The more popular a program, the higher the network can charge a company for commercial during the program. There is also a public television network. It has no commercials. Instead, it receives financial support from the government, some private corporations and individual donations.
Recently, a new type of television network has been gaining popularity. These networks are called cable television. Cable te1evision companies sell television programming directly to the public. The viewer pays a monthly fee to the company. The company installs a special line to his television set to receive the program which he has paid the company to watch

Employees need several kinds of satisfactions if they are to remain productive and
enthusiastic in industry. They need to know that their working conditions axe safe and adequate for the kind of work they do. Also, they need reasonable hours of work in order to make their jobs acceptab1e. If they must work overtime several nights a week, their take-home pay may be higher, but their efficiency and feelings about their jobs will decline.
In addition to agreeable working conditions, employees need to have adequate compensation for the work they do. Today potential employees also examine the benefits package management offers to compare them with other companies. If one company offers stocks, insurance, vacations, and even child care, other industries must follow suit, or they lose out on hiring the best employees.
Adequacy of working conditions and financial compensation are hardly enough, however, to keep employees satisfied for long. Employees also need to feel confident of management's abilities to organize the company. The employer who pays weI1 and has a new modern plant to display their product may still fore the loyalty and devotion of employees through 1ack of attention to details and disorganization. One recent research study showed that more than half the smal1 businesses failed not due to lack of n1oney but to the employer's lack of management ski1l. 171.Which of the following could probably be the main idea of this passage?

一、视听说教程 Unit 1 Life is a learning curve 1、Long conversation M: Miranda, let's speak about your performance in class. You're not participating; you're careless with your assignments and often hand them in late. You don't want to be here, do you? W: I'm sorry Dr. Smith. It's just ... I've got lots of things to do. I'm studying Web design and I'm a first-class player on our golf team. It's hard to see why I need to take a Spanish language class! M: Well, I'm sorry you feel that way, but learning another language can improve your performance in all of your efforts. And it can be very useful sometimes, for instance, when you visit your father in Mexico. W: Gosh! What do you mean, professor? Just because my father does business in Mexico I'm supposed to learn Spanish —on top of everything else I have to learn? It's just too much! And if I don't spend enough time on the golf course, I won't remain a first-class player on the golf team. I still don't see why I should learn a language that's so hard for me. There are no verb tenses on the golf course or in Web design! M: Listen Miranda, I've known your father since we were students at university 20 years ago —and have known you since you were a little girl. Of course, there are no verb tenses in golf or Web design. But I am giving you good advice. Please listen. W: Yes, of course, you're like my favorite uncle. M: Your brain isn't like a cup that has water flowing over its edge when it is full. Instead, it's like a muscle. Learning Spanish exercises your brain in new ways, making it stronger. It will strengthen your critical thinking skills and creativity. W: Really?! Then I guess I can give it a try. Question： 1、How is the woman doing in the man's class? 2、What does the woman think of learning Spanish? 3、What do we know from this conversation about the man? 4、What is the woman most likely to do after talking with the man? 2、passage 2 Have you ever heard of homeschooling? It is a legal choice for parents in most countries to provide their children with a learning environment as an alternative to public or private schools outside the home. Parents cite numerous reasons for homeschooling their children. The three reasons that are selected by the majority of parents in the United States are the concern about the traditional school environment, the lack of

Of the colleges, St. Hilda's and Somerville are for women, and the rest are for men and women. 牛津大学有16,300多名学生（1999－2000），其中留学生占将近四分之一。他们来自130多个国家。牛津大学有35个学院，还有5个由不同宗教团体建立的私人学院。5个私人学院中，有3个只招男生。学院中，圣希尔达和萨默维尔学院只收女生，其他均为男女兼收。 At Oxford, each college is a corporate body distinct from the university and is governed by its own head and fellows. Most fellows are college instructors called tutors, and the rest are university professors and lecturers. Each college manages its own buildings and property, elects its own fellows, and selects and admits its own undergraduate students. The university provides some libraries, laboratories, and other facilities, but the colleges take primary responsibility for the teaching and well-being of their students. 牛津的每个学院都是独立于大学的实体，由该学院的院长和管委会成员负责管理。部分管委会成员都称为导师的学院教师，其余的是大学教授和讲师。每个学院管理自己的房产和资产，遴选自己的管委会，选择和招收自己的本科生。大学提供某些图书馆、实验室和其他设施，但教学和学生生活主要由各学院负责。 Each student at Oxford is assigned to a tutor, who supervises the student's program of study, primarily through tutorials. Tutorials are weekly meetings of one or two students with their tutor. Students may see other tutors for specialized instruction. They may also attend lectures given by university teachers. Students choose which lectures to attend on the basis of their own special interests and on the advice of their tutors. 牛津大学给每个学生指定一个导师，他主要通过辅导课监督学生的学习。导师每周和1 到2名学生见面一次，学生如需专业指导，还可以去约见其他的导师，也可选听大学老师讲授的课程。学生选听什么课程是根据自己的兴趣和导师的建议而定的。 The university, not the individual colleges, grants degrees. The first degree in the arts or sciences is the Bachelor of Arts with honors. Oxford also grants higher degrees, diplomas, and certificates in a wide variety of subjects. 学位由大学授予，而不是各个学院。最低文科或理 科学位是优等文学学士。牛津还在其他众多学科领域授予最高的学位，颁发文凭和证书。

《大学英语（1）》命题作业： （1）作业名称：在外语学习中，如何正确认识英语的听说能力？如何有效实现？ 作业要求：请阅读以下材料作答： 有很多这样的场景和例子：学习了多年英语的朋友去国外出差或参加国际学术会议，突然发现到达对方海关，在和对方工作人员进行简单交流的时候，竟然难以表述自己的想法！（请同学们注意，对方的海关工作人员是一个非学术地位的普通职位）；当自己乘坐Taxi或Subway购票的时候，难以表述自己想去的目的地…。这样现实的例子，在生活中不胜枚举。 其实，学英语有一个基本的方法，就是同学们一定不要忽视了基本的听说能力培养。外语教学的目的不仅仅要增加英语学习者的阅读能力和语法分析能力，更重要的是要加强人类基本的交流能力——听与说。 1、以小论文格式完成。 2、表明核心观点并加以阐述。 3、字数控制在800-1000字。
在外语学习中，如何正确认识英语的听说能力?如何有效实现? 经济全球化的影响，促使不同的国家在教育体系中加入了英语教学，提升学生的全面素质。但是在现实生活中会出现很多的沟通障碍，看得懂听不懂的问题更是比比皆是，那么应该怎样改善这样的情况呢？ 个人认为中国人在英语学习中主要有两大客观障碍。一、文化差异以及生活习惯不同造成的障碍。由于英美国人的生活习惯，文化背景等不同，学生听英语时，即使材料中没有生词,难度也不大，学生仍然没听汉语那样顺畅，会存在一定的难度。如果让学生听一篇关于中国的传统节日中秋节的文章和一篇关于外国圣诞节的内容，两者的难易程度几乎相等，但听前篇文章的内容的效果比后一篇要好得多。这主要是受文化背景，风俗习惯影响的结果。二、英语语言环境的缺乏。现在普通话已开始出现在学生们的交际和交流中，但平时用英语去交流交际的学生却很少，周围也很少有英语环境和氛围可以让学生自然地，轻松地用英语交谈。学生接触英语的机会很少，感受英语语言环境也只有在英语课堂。在
