For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should dec ide on the best choices and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Lillian was a young French Canadian girl who grew up on a farm in Ontario. When she was 16, her father thought “Lill” had had enough schooling, and she was forced to drop out of school. In 1922, with English as her second language and limited education and skills, the future didn’t look bright for Lill.

Her father was a strict man who seldom took no for an answer and never accepted excuses. He demanded that Lill find a job. But her limitations left her with little confidence, and she didn’t know what work she could do.

With small hope of gaining employment, she would still ride the bus daily into the “big cities” of Windsor or Detroit. But she couldn’t muster the courage to respond to a Help Wanted ad; she couldn’t even bring herself to knock on a door. Each day she would just ride to the city, walk aimlessly about and at dusk return home. Her father would ask, “Any luck today, Lill?”

“No… no luck today, Dad,” she would respond mildly.

As the days passed, Lill continued to ride and her father continued to ask about her job-hunting. The questions became more demanding, and Lill knew she would soon have to knock on a door.

On one of her trips, Lill saw a sign at the Carhartt Overall Company in downtown Detroit. “HELP WANTED,” the sigh said, “SECRETARIAL. APPLY WITHIN.”

She walked up the long flight of stairs to the Carhartt Company offices. Cautiously, Lill knocked on her very first door. She was met by the office manager, Margaret Costello. In her

broken English, Lill told her she was interested in the secretarial position, falsely stating that she was 19. Margaret knew something wasn’t right, but decided to give the girl a chance.

She guided Lill through the old business office of the Carhartt Company. With rows and rows of people seated at rows and rows of typewriters, Lill felt as if a hundred pairs of eyes were staring at her. With her eyes staring down, the farm girl followed Margaret to the back of the room. Margaret sat her down at a typewriter and said, “Lill, let’s see how good you really are.”

She asked Lill to type a single letter, and then left. Lill looked at the clock and saw that it was 11:40 A.M. Everyone would be leaving for lunch at noon. She thought that she could slip away in the crowd then. But she knew she should at least attempt the letter.

On her first try, she got through one line. It had five words, and she made four mistakes. She pulled the paper out and threw it away. The clock now read 11:45. “At noon,” she said to herself, “I’ll move out with the crowd, and they will never see me again.”

On her second attempt, Lill got through a full paragraph, but still made many mistakes. Again she pulled out the paper, threw it out and started over. This time she completed the letter, but her work was still full of mistakes. She looked at the clock: 11:55---five minutes to freedom.

Just then, the door at one end of the office opened and Margaret walked in. She came directly over to Lill, putting one hand on the desk and the other on the girl’s shoulder. She read the letter and paused. Then she said, “Lill, you’re doing good work!”

Lill was stunned. She looked at the letter, then up at Margaret. With those simple words of encouragement, her desire to escape vanished and her confidence began to grow. She thought, “Well, if she thinks it’s good, then it must be good. I think I’ll stay!”

Lill did stay at Carhartt Overall Company…for 51 years, through two world wars and a Depression, through 11 presidents and six prime ministers--- all because someone had the insight to give a shy and uncertain young girl the gift of self-confidence when she knocked on the door.

Section B: Reading Comprehension 30%

Directions: There are some questions or unfinished statements in this part. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Y ou should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage One

Some desert animals can survive the summer heat and dryness because they are very unusual. The camel, for example, can experience and bear an increase in the temperature of its body and its blood of 9 ℃without anything bad happening to it. In addition, it can drink a lot of water at one time; then store enough water in parts of its body to supply its needs for two weeks or more. The kangaroo rat, on the other hand, gets all the water it needs from water that it produces when it breathes. However, most animals need to maintain a fairly constant body temperature, and will die if it rises more than 5℃. Therefore, they need to find some way to stay away from the heat of the summer sun. Nor can many animals either store or produce water in their bodies, as the camel and kangaroo rat can. So they must find ways to keep their bodies from losing water because of the heat. Because very few desert animals can survive the high temperature of a typical summer’s day, most of them are active only in the night. Only after the sun has set does the desert come fully to life. The night is relatively cool, and the darkness provides protection, not only from the sun, but also from other animals and from the birds. So the coming of darkness is the signal for the large majority of animals and insects to start again their search for water and food. When morning comes, most of them seek shelter again: many go underground; nearly all find some dark and cool place where they can keep away from the sun’s heat.

For many species of insects, living in the desert is easier than for animals. Like many desert plants, they have a waterproof skin which prevents water loss because of the high temperature. In addition, some species spend all or most of their life below ground. Here, for most of the year at least, there is some moisture, and it is generally cooler than on the surface. In the case of ants, only adults leave the underground nests, and they do so only to gather food or to defend the nest against attack.

26. Compared with other desert animals, the camel can bear .

A. a very low body temperature

B. only a little change in body temperature

C. a big increase in body temperature

D. a constant change in body temperature

27. The kangaroo rat is different from other animals in that .

A. it can produce water through breathing

B. it can store water in parts of its body

C. it can maintain different body temperature

D. it can drink a lot of water at a time

28. Why is the desert full of activity in summer nights?

A. Because it is cooler and safer for most animals.

B. Because animals can find food in the dark.

C. Because it is easy to find water at night.

D. Because animals cannot sleep at night.

29. Why is it easy for many species of insects to live in the desert?

A. Because it is not difficult for them to survive there.

B. Because they are not afraid of the heat.

C. Because it is not difficult for them to find food there.

D. Because they have a waterproof skin.

30. Most insects live below the ground because .

A. it is easy for them to build nests there

B. it is easy to find water there

C. it is cooler there than on the surface

D. it is easier to defend their nests

Passage two

Cars are an important part of life in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. An even if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor when he has a car.

Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn’t know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the Unite States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.

There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. First of all, the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.

The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays, there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.

The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular. Americans don’t like to wait for a bus or a train or even a plane. They don’t like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.

The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas.

31. When do most Americans feel they are poor?

A. When they don’t have a car.

B. When they live in a huge country.

C. When they don’t use planes.

D. When they have a car.

32. Why do cars become popular in the United States?

A. The United States is huge.

B. Public transportation is not so good.

C. Americans like to be independent.

D. Americans like to move around.

33. What public transportation is good in the United States?

A. Buses.

B. Trains.

C. Taxis.

D. Planes

34. What has caused a big problem for Americans?

A. A new kind of car.

B. Public transportation.

C. The gas shortage.

D. Poor people.

35. Which of the following is not mentioned according to this passage?

A. Cars have made the nation on wheels.

B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage.

C. Nearly 80% of the American people have cars.

D. Cars have made Americans independent.

Passage three

Ever since I was very small, I’ve had the sense that I ought to be somewhere else. I remember watching trains flash by and wishing I was on board. I remember going to the airport

with my parents when I was 13 and reading the destinations board, seeing all the places that I could go to: Los Angeles, Chicago, London.

But the train passed by and planes took off without me, so I wandered the world through books. I went to V ictorian England in the pages of Middlemarch and A little Princess, and to St. Petersburg before the fall of tsar with Anna Karenina.

My home was in a pleasant place outside Philadelphia. But I really lived, truly lived, somewhere else. I lived within the covers of books. In books I traveled, not only to other worlds, but into my town. I learned who I was and who I wanted to be, what I might achieve, and what I might dare to dream about my world and myself.

I travel today in the way I once dreamed of traveling as a child--- on airplanes and in trains. And the irony is that I don’t care for it very much. I am the sort of person who prefers to stay at home, surrounded by family, friends, books. The only thing I do like about traveling is the time on airplanes spent reading.

It turns out that when my younger self thought of taking wing, she wanted only to let her spirit soar. Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the real destinations, and the journey too. They are home.

36. What did the writer do as a curious child?

A. She visited V ictorian England and Tsarist Russia.

B. She flew to Los Angeles, Chicago and London with her parents.

C. She read all kinds of books.

D. She spent lots of time traveling on trains.

37. How does the author feel about travel today?

A. She doesn’t like it very much.

B. She takes great pleasure in it.

C. She feels tired of it.

D. She feels as excited as when she was young.

38. What did the author learn from books as a child?

A. About many foreign places.

B. About many historical figures.

C. About the outside world as well as her own self.

D. About the ironies of life.

39. We can infer from the passage that when traveling by air, the author spends most of her time

on the way .

A. reading books

B. resting herself

C. imagining things

D. letting her spirit soar

40. In this passage the author mainly talks about .

A. the wonders of travel

B. her growth from an innocent child to a learned woman

C. the benefits of reading

D. the difference between childhood dreams and life’s realities

Passage four

Before World War II, the labor force in the United States was made up almost entirely of man. Those Women who did have jobs were, as a rule, single and usually worked in schools,

business or small factories, particularly in the garment industry. It was only the exceptional married women who worked. Those who did work generally owned their businesses such as a dress shop or a restaurant. They also may have helped their husband in their businesses.

Since World War II, the entrance of both married and single woman in the working world has continued to increase. Today, not only are there more single women available for the labor market, but there are also large numbers of married women, many of whom have children.

One of the primary reasons why there’s a noticeable increase in the number of employed woman is that more women, both single and married, have become aware of the need for personal self-fulfillment. Of course, other factors have also contributed to the increase in the number of working women. Some of these include a change in the education among many women, who are entering very specialized fields such as medicine, law and computer science. Modern appliances have also reduced the amount of housework and a demand for expensive goods has increased the necessity for a “second outcome”.

Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you 86wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the 87that make one face different from another. Y et a very young child--- 88an animal, such as a pigeon---can learn to recognize faces. We all 89this ability for granted.

We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone’s personality, we mean 90in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks, and feels that 91an individual different from others.

Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someone’s personality in words is somewhat easier than 92his face. If you were asked to describe what a “nice face”looked like, you 93have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a “nice person”, you might begin to think about someone who was kind, 94 , friendly, warm, and so forth.

There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels, and acts. Gordon Allport, a U.S. psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people’s behavior. And many of us use this information as a 95for describing, or typing, a personality. Hippies, bookworms, conservatives, military types---people are described with such terms.

Reading Comprehension (2’X20=40’) Directions: Read the following three passages carefully and do the multiple-choice questions. Passage One Dogs are social animals and without proper training, they will behave like wild animals. They spoil your house, destroy your belongings, bark excessively, fight other dogs and even bite you. Nearly all behavior problems are perfectly normal dog activities that occur at the wrong time or place or are directed at the wrong things. The key to preventing or treating behavior problem is learning to teach the dog to redirect its normal behavior problems, but it is the foundation for solving just about any problem. Training opens up a line of communication between you and your dog. Effective communication is necessary to instruct your dog about what you want it to do. Training is also an easy way to establish the social rank order. When your dog obeys a simple request of “come here, sit”, it is showing obedience and respect for you. It is necessary to establish yourself as top dog or leader of the dog pack by using extreme measures. You can teach your dog its subordinate role by teaching it to show submission to you. Most dogs love performing tricks for you pleasantly if they accept that you are in charge. Tainting should be fun and rewarding for you and your dog. It can enrich your relationship and make living together more enjoyable. A well-trained dog is more confident and more safely allowed a greater amount of freedom than an untrained animal. 1. Behavior problems of dogs are believed to _______. A) worsen in modern society B) be just part of their nature C) occur when they go wild D) present at threat to the community 2. The primary purpose of obedience training is to ________. A) enable the dog to regain its normal behavior B) teach the dog to perform clever tricks C) make the dog aware of its owner’s authority D) provide the dog with outlets for its wild behavior 3. Effective communication between a dog and its owner is _______. A) an extreme measure in obedience training B) a good way to teach the dog new tricks C) the foundation for dogs to perform tasks D) essential to solve the dog’s behavior problems 4. Why do pet dogs love performing tricks for their masters? A) To show their willingness to obey. B) To show their affection for their masters. C) To avoid being punished. D) To win leadership of the dog pack. 5. When a dog has received effective obedience training, its owner________. A) will enjoy a better family life. B) can give the dog more freedom C) can give the dog more rewards D) will have more confidence in himself Passage Two: Once upon a time there was a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work. One day he was walking along the shore. As he looked down the beach, he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself at the thought of someone who would dance on the beach. So he began to walk faster to catch up.
