Part I. Reading Comprehension
Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
Passage 1
In the summer of 1978 an English farmer named Ian Stevens was driving his tractor through a field of wheat when he discovered something strange. Some of his wheat was lying flat on the ground. The flattened （被压平的） wheat formed a circle about six meters across. Around this circle were four smaller circles of flattened wheat. In the following years more and more similar circles were found in a field of wheat or corn. So people cannot help but ask the question: What causes the circles? At first, people suspected that the circles were a trick. To prove that the circles were a trick, people tried to copy them: they tried to make circles exactly like the ones the farmers had found. They couldn't do it. They couldn't enter a field of grain without leaving tracks, and they couldn't flatten the grain without breaking it. The circles are apparently not a trick.
Many people believe that beings from outer space are making the circles. Some think that the beings are trying to communicate with us from far away and that the circles are messages from them. Others believe that the beings have actually landed on earth and that the circles are marks left by their spaceships. Several times people reported seeing strange flying objects near fields where circles later appeared.
Scientists say they're not sure what causes them. They have suggested several theories. For example, some scientists say that "microbursts" of wind created the circles. A microburst is a downward rush of cool air — the same downward rush of air that sometimes causes an airplane to crash. Others scientists say that forces within the earth cause the circles to appear. But circles often appear in forms. It is hard to believe that any natural force could create those forms. And recently farmers have discovered not only circles but also other shapes such as triangles in their fields. Could any natural force created a perfect triangle in a field of grain?
In the summer of 1990 some scientists spent three weeks in the part of England where many circles have appeared. They had all the latest high-tech equipment. This equipment — worth 1.8 million dollars — recorded nothing. But one night, as the scientists were watching a field, circles formed in the field behind them. These circles are shown in the photograph. The scientists had neither seen nor heard anything. (402 words)

Passage 2
In the early days of sea travel, seamen lived entirely on salted meat and biscuits. Many of them died of scurvy (坏血病), a disease of the blood which causes swollen gums, pale white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion. On one occasion, in 1535, an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew seriously ill. The men's lives were saved by Iroquois Indians who gave them vegetable leaves to eat. Gradually it came to be realized that scurvy was caused by some lack in the sailors' diet and Captain Cook, who was to discover Australia and New Zealand, established the fact the scurvy could be avoided by provision of fresh fruit for the sailors.
Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious disease if certain important elements are missing. These elements are called "vitamins". Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them, A, B, C, D, and so on. Different diseases are associated with deficiencies of particular vitamins. Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increase significantly our possibility of getting bad colds.
The vitamins necessary for a health body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruit and green vegetables. It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say during extended periods of religious fasting (禁食), or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to make special provision to supply the missing vitamins. (274 words)

Passage 3
He had uncombed hair, dirty clothes, and only 35 cents in his pocket. In Baltimore, Maryland, he got on a bus and headed straight for the restroom. He thought that if he hid in the restroom, he could ride to New York without paying. But a passenger at the back of the bus saw him. She tapped the person in front of her on the shoulder and said, "There's a bum（乞丐）in the restroom. Tell the bus driver." That passenger tapped the person sitting in front of him. "Tell the bus driver there's a bum in the restroom," he said.
The message was passed from person to person until it reached the front of the bus. But somewhere along the way, the message changed. By the time it reached the bus driver, it was not "There's a bum in the restroom" but "There's a bomb in the restroom." The driver immediately pulled over to the side of the highway and radioed the police. When the police arrived, they told the passengers to get off the bus and stay far way. Then they closed the highway. That soon caused a 15-mile-long traffic jam. With the help of a dog, the police searched the bus for two hours. Of course, they found no bomb.
Two similar-sounding English words also caused trouble for a man who wanted to fly from Los Angeles to Oakland, California. His problems began at the airport in Los Angeles's. He thought he heard his flight announced, so he walked to the gate, showed his ticket, and got on the plane. Twenty minutes after takeoff, the man began to worry. Oakland was north of Los Angeles, but the plane seemed to be heading west, and when he looked out his window all he could see was ocean. "Is this plane going to Oakland?" he asked the flight attendant （服务员）. The flight attendant was shocked. "No," she said. "We're going to Auckland — Auckland, New Zealand."
When a Korean woman who lives in the United States arrived at work one morning, her boss asked her, "Did you get a plate?" "No..." she answered, wondering what in the world he meant. She worked in an office. Why did the boss ask her about a plate? At five o'clock, when she was getting ready to go home, her boss said, "Please be on time tomorrow. You were 15 minutes late this morning." "Sorry," she said. "My car wouldn't start, and ..." Suddenly she understood. Her boss hadn't asked her, "Did you get a
plate?" He had asked, "Did you get up late?"
English is not the only language with similar-sounding words. Other languages, too, have words that can cause misunderstandings, especially for foreigners.
Auckland and Oakland. "A plate" and "up late". When similar-sounding words cause a misunderstanding, probably the best thing to do is just laugh and learn from the mistake. Of course, sometimes it's hard to laugh. The man who traveled to Auckland instead of Oakland didn't feel like laughing. But even that misunderstanding turned out all right in the end. The airline paid for the man's hotel room and meals in New Zealand and for his flight back to California. "Oh well," the man later said, "I always wanted to see New Zealand." (551 words)

A. the woman who tapped the person in front of her
B. the driver who radioed the police
C. the police who blocked the road
D. the change of the message from "there is a bum" to "there is a bomb"
2. Before he knew it, the man arrived in ________.
A. Oakland
B. Auckland
C. Los Angeles
D. California

A. an office
B. a workshop
C. a restaurant

4. The sentence "Oh well, I always wanted to see New Zealand." reflects ________.
A. the man's sense of humor
B. the man's frustration
C. the man's disappointment

B. to learn a good pronunciation
C. to speak clearly and slowly
D. to laugh and learn from it
Passage 4
Another example of the dangers of a restricted diet may be seen in the disease known as "beri-beri"（脚气病）, which used to make large numbers of Eastern peoples suffer who lived mainly on rice. In the early years of the 20th century, a Dutch scientist called Eijkman was trying to discover the cause of beri-beri. At first he thought it was transmitted（传送）by a germ (细菌). He was working in a Japanese hospital, where the patients were fed on rice which had had the outer husk（壳）removed from the grain. It was thought this would be easier for weak, sick people to digest.
Eijkman thought his germ theory was confirmed when he noticed the chickens in the hospital yard, which were fed on scraps（碎片）from the patients' plates, were also showing signs of the disease. He then tried to isolate the germ he thought was causing the disease, but his experiments were interrupted by a hospital official, who ruled that the huskless polished rice, even though left over by the patients, was too good for chickens. The chickens should be fed on cheap rice with the outer covering still on the grain.
Eijkman noticed that the chickens began to recover on the new diet. He began to consider the possibility that eating unmilled rice somehow prevented or cured beri-beri — even that a lack of some ingredient in the husk might be the cause of the disease. Indeed this was the case. The element needed to prevent beri-beri was shortly afterwards isolated from rice husks and is now known as vitamin B. The milled rice, though more expensive, was in fact keeping alive the disease the hospital was trying to cure. Nowadays, this terrible disease is much less common thanks to our knowledge of vitamins. (313 words)

Passage 5
Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there — her children, her grandchildren, and her new great-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival (节日).
Yinlan had grown up in China, but she and her family now lived in San Francisco, California. Although they lived in the United States, Yinlan's family celebrated the Harvest Moon Festival just as Yinlan had in China. Then, if the sky was clear, they always walked outside to admire the full moon. Tonight there was not a cloud in the sky, and the full moon shone brightly. Yinlan suggested that they all go outside. Her grandson helped her up from her chair. As Yinlan and her grandson walked toward
the door, she held on to his arm and leaned against him for support. Yinlan was 86 years old. She had not been well the past few months, and her family noticed that she seemed weak.
Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.
Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists（社会学家）studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone （推迟）their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.
Sociologists also studied the death rate of elderly Jewish men around the time of Passover, a Jewish holiday. They discovered the same phenomenon. Passover is a Jewish religious holiday that is a family holiday as well. On the first two days of Passover, families gather in their homes for a ceremony （仪式）. It is an important event for elderly Jewish men — so important that some men postpone their deaths until after Passover.
The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. They tell of grandmother who died after the birth of a grandchild, a grandfather who died after his 92nd birthday party. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts — the drop and rise in death rates — prove that people really can postpone their deaths.
One famous person who may have postponed his death was Thomas Jefferson. Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration of Independence, one of the most important U.S. documents. The Declaration of Independence was signed on July 4, 1776. Thomas Jefferson died exactly 50 years later, on July 4, 1826. He died after asking his doctor, "Is it the Fourth?"
Historians have always thought that Jefferson's death on the Fourth of July was a remarkable coincidence（巧合）. It now seems quite possible that the timing of Jefferson's death was no coincidence at all. (597 words)

D. both of them are a family holiday
3. Thomas Jefferson's death on July the 4th was probably timed by ________.
A. his doctor
B. the Declaration of Independence
C. one famous person
D. himself
4. Which of the following is true?
A. The Jewish holiday Passover can only postpone the deaths of elderly women.
B. The Chinese Harvest Moon Festival can only postpone the deaths of old men.
C. It is facts not stories that prove people can postpone their deaths.
D. Family holidays of all kinds can postpone the deaths of old people.

A. Saving the Old with a Family Holiday

C. More Family Holidays, More Happiness
D. What a Coincidence
Passage 6
A strict vegetarian is a person who never in his life eats anything derived from animals. The main objection to vegetarianism（素食主义）on a long-term basis is the difficulty of getting enough protein — the body-building element in food. If you have ever been without meat or other animal foods for some days of weeks (say, for religious reasons) you will have notice that you tend to get physically rather weak. You are glad when the fast（禁食）is over and you get your reward of a delicious meat meal.
Proteins are built up from about twenty food elements called "amino-acid" (氨基酸) , which are found more abundantly in animal protein than in vegetable protein. This means you have to eat a great deal more vegetable than animal food in order to get enough of these amino-acids. A great deal of the vegetable food goes to waste in this process and from the physiological（生理学的）point of view there is not much to be said in favor of life-long vegetarianism.
The economic side of the question, though, must be considered. Vegetable food is much cheaper than animal food. However, since only a small proportion of the vegetable protein is useful for body-building purposes, a consistent vegetarian, if he is to gain the necessary 70 grams (克) of protein a day, has to consume a great bulk of food than his digestive organs can comfortably deal with. In fairness, though, it must be pointed out that vegetarians claim they need far less than 70 grams of protein a day. (276 words)
1. A strict vegetarian ________.
A. rarely eats animal products
B. sometimes eats eggs
C. never eats any animal products

2. We feel weak when we go without meat and other animal products _____.
A. because we are reducing our food amount
B. because we do not get enough protein
C. because vegetables do not contain protein
D. unless we take plenty of exercise
3. Proteins are built up from ________.
A. about twenty different foods
B. about twenty different vegetables
C. various fats and sugars
D. about twenty different amino-acids
4. Physiologically, life-long vegetarianism may not be good because ______.
A. it makes people very thin
B. the body must process too much waste
C. the farmer lose money
D. vitamin-deficiency diseases may result
5. One thing in favour of vegetarianism is that ________.
A. vegetable food is easier to digest
B. animal food is less expensive
C. vegetable food is cheaper
D. it is good for the digestion
Passage 7
In 1913, the United States government launched (发起) a bold, new nickel. Sculptor James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin that would be "truly American." In his search for symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect unity of theme（主题）."
Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913. A single coining press at the Philadelphia Mint（造币厂）started turning out the nickels at the rate of 120 a minute. But after the first examples were placed in circulation（流通）, the New York Times condemned (谴责) them as a "bad."
Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters（造假币的人）. But the most serious complaint about the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would remove the date and the words Five Cents "beyond understanding."
In 1938, the Department of Treasury staged a competition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson. According to a news item of the day, the Bureau of Indian Affairs didn't receive a single complaint from native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem to mind either. (212 words)

Passage 8
You must face the fact that in your inmost heart you hate the thought of moving. It is easiest not to leave the rooms where your children passed through their wonderful childhood and annoying teens to a friendly but slightly distant community.
Until, suddenly one day, the distance is absolute and they are grown up and gone. Then you find yourself living in too large a house, which consumes in its maintenance too much energy and money. When we found ourselves in this situation a few years ago, we determined to move while we still had the strength and before the emotional tentacles (触角) that the old house had wrapped around us became too powerful to be broken. Move while you can! But be sure you really want to, and do not move too often. It is an exhausting process.
Your first task is to find a house that will suit you. It must be smaller, quieter, easier to run, and more conveniently placed for transport. Not so small, though, that it will not elegantly accommodate (容纳) your largest pieces of furniture, and located not too far from the neighborhood where so many friendships have been built up.
At last we found one: a late Victorian cottage, in a street where the houses, all small, range from late 18th to mid 20th century. It was near enough to where we wanted to live. It had no basement （地下室）, which was a great convenience for aging legs; there were only two floors above ground level: one for ourselves and one where friends, children, and grandchildren could spread themselves when they came to stay. Each floor had two rooms. There was a kitchen on the ground floor, with the bathroom above it. (289 words)

Passage 9
Charlie Chaplin has broken all records in making people laugh. No one has so set a whole world laughing as the little man with the walking stick and the overlarge shoes.
Much has been written about Chaplin's art and his career, and opinions have ranged widely. But perhaps those who called him "the most general human being of our time" came closest to the truth. Those who have called him a genius stress the timeless and common qualities in his work. It is an art filled with sad elements and deep human feeling, with which an audience cannot help but become involved. It is for these reasons, I believe, that the figure of Charlie has attracted generation after generation.
All the writers who give accounts of Chaplin's life agree that Charlie's unhappy early years in the area in London where houses were dirty and worn had a great influence on his development and on the type of films he made. Chaplin himself emphasizes it in his memoirs (回忆录). The more one reads about his earliest period, the more one tends to agree. Indeed, his suffering youth had a lasting influence on him.
Chaplin was never afraid to deal with subjects causing much disagreement in his films. He gave a humorous performance on war only a few weeks before the American soldiers came home from World War I in 1918. This was regarded as madness, but the performance was well received. So perfectly did it hit the nail on the head that even the returning soldiers found it impossible to hate it and deeply appreciated this short and humorous performance on what for them had been unpleasant reality. Chaplin gave numerous performances attacking capital governments, satirizing (讽刺) the cruelty of the machine age and even making fun of Hitler.
Years after his death, the funny films of motion picture actor and director Charlie Chaplin continue to be popular. He is particularly well known for his success as a creator of humorous presentations that make fun of people, the establishment, or networks.
1. All of the following about Charlie Chaplin are true except __________.
A) he was born in the USA B) he was a great film actor
C) he had an unhappy early life D) he made fun of Hitler in his films
2. According to the author, Charlie Chaplin has been popular with generation after generation because _________.
A) he set the whole world laughing
B) his performances get people involved
C) his works appeal to people in different periods
D) both B and C
3. According to Charlie Chaplin's life history writers, _________ had a strong influence on the type of films he made.
A) the society in which he lived
B) the audience who praised and admired him
C) those who called him a genius
D) his unhappy early years in the poor area in London
4. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A) There are timeless qualities in Chaplin's work because he didn't involve himself in political affairs.
B) Chaplin became popular years after his death.
C) Chaplin's performance is funny without any sad elements.
D) Chaplin's films are the combinations of funny and sad elements.
5. This passage was ____________.
A) written by Charlie Chaplin
B) written about Charlie Chaplin
C) advertising one of Charlie Chaplin's films
D) written for students to learn film-making
Passage 10
Although Beethoven could sit down and compose easily, his really great compositions did not come easily at all. They cost him a great deal of hard work and he always found it hard to satisfy himself.
When he was 28, he began to notice a strange noise in his ears. As it grew worse, he went to see doctors, and was told that he was going deaf. This was too much for any composer to bear. Beethoven was without hope; he was sure that he was going to die. He went to the countryside where he wrote a long good-bye letter to his brothers, describing how sad and lonely his deafness made him. He longed to die, and said to death, "Come when you will; I shall meet you bravely."
In fact, Beethoven did something braver than dying. He gathered his courage and went on writing music, though he could hear what he wrote more and more faintly. He wrote the music for which we remember him best after he became deaf. This music was very different from any that had been composed before. Instead of the artistic and grand music that earlier composers had written for their rich listeners, Beethoven wrote stormy, exciting music which reminds us of his troubled and courageous life. His Heroic Symphony (交响乐) and Fifth Symphony both show his courage in struggling with his fate.
In time he went completely deaf, but he wrote more creatively than ever, for he could "hear" his music in his mind. He was lonely and often unhappy but in spite of this, he often wrote joyful music, such as his last symphony, the Ninth. Because of his courage and strong will to triumph, his music has given joy and encouragement to millions of people.
1. How did Beethoven's deafness affect him?
A) It killed him. B) It stopped his writing music.
C) It drove him mad. D) It helped him create good music.
2. Which of the following music works written by Beethoven was joyful?
A) No 3 Symphony. B) No 5 Symphony. C) No 7 Symphony. D) No 9 Symphony.
3. Beethoven longed to die because ____________.
A) he had told death he would meet it bravely
B) he felt his deafness was too much for him to bear as a composer
C) he wouldn't be able to write music for rich listeners after becoming deaf
D) he wouldn't be able to support his family
4. Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A) Music and Musicians B) The Music of Fate
C) Hard to Satisfy D) Deafness in Music
5. According to the passage, which of the following is true?
A) When he was partly deaf, Beethoven's music became more and more gentle and faint.
B) His music became more and more artistic although he was deaf.
C) He wrote fainter and fainter music after he went deaf.
D) He composed exciting and encouraging music that reflected his struggle with his fate.

Passage 12
After having lived for over twenty years in the same district, Albert Hall was forced to move to a new neighborhood. He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could not afford to buy any more chocolate.
It all began a year ago when Albert Hall returned home one evening and found a large dog in front of his gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate in his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. It held up its paws (爪子) and received another piece of chocolate as a reward. Albert called his new friend "Bingo". He never found out the dog's real name, nor who his owner was. However, Bingo appeared regularly every afternoon and it was quite clear that he liked chocolate more than bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with small pieces of chocolate and demanded a large bar a day. If at any time Albert couldn't give it, Bingo got very angry and refused to let him open the gate. Albert was now at Bingo's mercy and had to "buy him" to get into his own house! He spent such a large part of his week's wage to keep Bingo supplied with chocolate that in the end he had to move somewhere else.

D) he was not satisfied with that district
8. Bingo waited for Albert every afternoon at the gate because _________.
A) he wanted some bones B) he wanted the chocolate
C) he liked Albert D) he had no other place to go

1. Today, as in every other day of the year, more than 3,000 U.S. adolescents will smoke their first cigarette on their way to becoming regular smokers as adults. During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3,000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths attributed to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death. Since the late 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised. First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors exceeded that among female by nearly 10 percent. The statistic is reversing. Third, several recent studies have indicate high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent . Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade, no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking levels among youth. 1. According to the author, the deaths among youth are mainly caused by _____. A. traffic accidents B. smoking-related diseases C. murder D. all of these 2. Every day there are over _____young people who will become regular smoker. A. 75 B. 23 C. 30 D. 3,000 3. By "dropout" (in paragraph 3) the author means______. A. students who failed the examination
