Television 31 its first serious appearance in 1939, but it did not become common until the early 1950’s. Since then, innumerable children 32 in front of the set.

Like almost anything else, television has its good as well as its bad sides. It has 34 joy

Unfortunately, some television programs have been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough 36 . They do not realize that TV programs often show an unreal world. Commercials lie in order to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. Children believe them and want to 37 what they see on TV.

Cars are an important part of life in the United States. 41 most people feel that th ey are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor 42 he has a car.

III. Reading Comprehension
Section A:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).
Passage 1
In the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.
One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $300,000 or more. The ship, lying on the sea-bed has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.
T51. Divers try to bring up metals because some kinds of them are worth a lot of money.
T52. Now divers still search for valuable things and try to bring to the earth surface the ships themselves.
F53. John Light hopes he may be able to sell the whole ship of “Lusitania” for more than $1.5 million.

Passage 2
More and more people today are realizing the importance of regular physical exercise. In the past, work for most people involved manual labor in the fresh open air of the fields. However, nowadays an increasing number of people are employed in offices or factories. Their daily work does not provide them with the amount of exercise their bodies need. Therefore, they have come to spend part of their free time doing regular physical exercise.
There are many different forms of exercise to suit different tastes. For example, those who enjoy competitive sports may take up ball games. Those who prefer to exercise alone can have a run or take a walk in the morning or in the evening. Besides, people can go swimming in summer
and go skating in winter. In short, no matter what their interests are, people can always find one or more sports that are suitable to them.
However, the form of physical exercise must be chosen carefully. More harm than good will result if people choose the wrong form of exercise. For the aged, Qigong or Tai Ji Quan will suit them better than competitive sports. Those who have little spare time may have a regular run in the morning. Only if the kind of exercise is chosen properly and performed regularly, will it benefit people’s health, work and study.
T56. Nowadays, more people realize the importance of physical exercise.
F57. It is unnecessary to take some exercise every day.
T58. People who enjoy competitive sports may take up basketball or football.
F59. Physical exercise can do more harm than good to people because they will feel tired after it. T60.People can always find one or more sports that benefit their health, work and study.

Nowadays more and more people are concerned about their health. But how to keep healthy? Different people may give different answers 41 this question. In my opinion, it is essential to do the following.

Every morning 45 people get up early and take much exercise. Some practice Tai Ji Quan and swordplay 46 others run, jog, walk or dance to music. In the afternoon, there are also many people keen down sports. Some play basketball or volleyball or table tennis, others 47 gymnastics or track events. Through sports and exercises, people become healthier and stronger.
Medical researchers have proved that what people eat affects their health. They 48 people to eat more fruits and vegetables and less meat such as beef and pork because meat contains more fat than poultry and fish. Fat can build up in the arteries, block the flow of blood, and cause a heart attack or stroke.
Getting rid of bad habits 49 smoking and drinking alcohol is also an important way to keep healthy. Smoking and drinking alcohol injure one’s health a great deal, and therefore should be given up. Unfortunately few people follow this advice.

Nowadays more and more people are concerned 31 their health. But how to keep healthy? Different people may give different answers to this question. In my opinion, it is essential to do 32 .
First, it is absolutely necessary to take some exercise every day. Research shows that getting 33 of exercise makes the heart beat faster and the lungs work harder. This strengthens the heart, reduces the chance of heart 34 , and helps lower blood pressure. That’s 35 more and more people are becoming active in various kinds of sports and exercises. Every morning many people get up early and 36 much exercise. Some practice Tai Ji Quan and swordplay while others run, jog, walk or dance to music. In the afternoon, there are also many people keen 37 sports. Some play basketball or volleyball or table tennis, others go in for gymnastics or track events. Through sports and exercises, people become healthier and stronger.
Medical researchers have proved that 38 people eat affects their health. They advise people to eat more fruits and vegetables and less meat such as beef and pork because meat
contains more fat than poultry and fish. Fat can build 39 in the arteries, block the flow of blood, and cause a heart attack or stroke.
Getting rid of bad habits like smoking and drinking alcohol is also an important way to keep heal thy. Smoking and drinking alcohol injure one’s health a great deal, and therefore should be given up. 40 few people follow this advice.
If people follow these three ways of keeping fit, they can greatly improve their health.

The mechanics of eating
Correctly, no one should start eating until everyone has been served. 41 , if some people are served before others, the unserved should turn to the served, and say “Don’t wait; please start.” The served do 42 , but pick slowly at their food so that the others will be able to catch up.
The set of silverware 43 you at a classy dinner can be formidable, but the rule is simple: use it from the outside in. That is, you use the outside spoon 44 your soup, the middle one for dessert, and the inner one for your coffee.
We eat nearly everything with a fork, which most people 45 in the right hand. If something has to be cut up, you switch your knife to the right hand and 46 your cutting, then lay down the knife, switch the fork to the right hand and eat. English people prefer the efficiency of keeping the fork in the left hand and knife in the right.
Spoon-feeding
Foods too liquid to be eaten with a fork are eaten with a spoon. It is 47 form to drink from you soup bowl, which should not be lifted from the table. When you are 48 , lay the spoon on the plate under the soup bowl. You show that you have finished by laying the knife and fork side-by-side on the right-hand side of the plate.
The check
49 father and two brothers who went out to dinner may split the check three ways. In a family this is most unusual, but among friends, splitting the check is common. If you don’t owe me and I don’t owe you we have a nice 50 relationship.

III. Reading Comprehension
Section A:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some true-false questions. Decide whether each of them is true (T) or false (F).
Passage 1
AIDS, fifty years ago, didn’t exist. Fifteen years ago a few doctors and public health officials noticed the first cases. Within a few years it was clear that it has now killed almost 14 million people around the world.
Four years ago doctors came up with the first treatment to make a dent in the spiraling death rate. Today that treatment works for some patients, but it’s not clear how long results will last. And still there is no cure.
For the nearly 35 million people around the world now living with HIV, there may never be a cure. Once cells are infected with HIV, it is very difficult —perhaps impossible ―to rid them of the virus. The only sure way to stop AIDS is to prevent infection in the first place, and only a vaccine can do that.
Unfortunately HIV is one of the most changeable viruses known to science. After more than a dozen years, it is still rather difficult to produce effective vaccine.
Still the billions of dollars spent on AIDS research over the past 20 years has not been wasted. As scientists learn more about how HIV survives in the human body, they are realizing that drugs alone may not be enough. To contain the virus effectively, it may take a balance between drug treatments that can keep HIV levels low and a strengthened immune system that can then target and destroy the remaining virus. Until scientists find a vaccine, however, they may control but never cure the century’s final s courge.
F51. AIDS didn’t exist fifteen years ago.
T52. Scientists have found a vaccine which can prevent HIV infection.
T53. Although some treatment works for some patients with HIV, there is still no cure.
T54. HIV is a changeable virus so that it is very difficult to produce effective vaccine.
F55. We have wasted billions of dollars on AIDS research.
Passage 2
Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the differences between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things they learn to do without being taught—to walk, run,
climb, whistle, ride a bicycle—compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer to that problem is, whether or not this is a good way of saying or doing this or that.
If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. L et’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks. Let us throw them all out, let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn and how to measure their own understanding, and how to know what they know or do not know. Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learned at school and used for the rest of one’s life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the world?” Don’t worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.
(F)56. The best way for children to learn a language and other things is for them to make mistakes
and have them corrected by themselves.
F57. School teaching looks as if teachers think that children would notice a mistake and have it corrected themselves.
T58. When it comes to a matter of right answers, teachers should give children the answer book and let them correct their own papers.
(F)59. The author strongly suggests that without correcting children’s mistakes, they would grown
up into adults who are unable to think for themselves.
(F)60. The passage aims to say that it is necessary for parents to teach their children things that
they will need to get on in the world.
IV. Translate the following sentences into Chinese.
61. The little hero prefers to die rather than surrender.

63. We never know the value of water till the well is dry.
我们从来不知道水的价值直到这口井干枯了。
V. Translate the following sentences into English.
64. 办公室已把打字机换成了电脑。(switch…to)
The office has switched the typewriter to computer.

Self-study is a good way of improving our knowledge of things. Some of the great scientists and lecturer couldn't afford to go to school so they just studied at home without anybody's help. Sometimes self-study could be more affective then going to schools and listen to teachers telling you what to do, but sometimes it will be better to learn in schools to furtherly knowing whats going on.

During the twentieth century there has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman’s life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the nineteenth century world probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty years, during which custom, opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a woman’s youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and can be expected to live another thirty-five years and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods. The important change in women’s life-pattern has only recently begun to have its full effect on women’s economic p osition. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full-time job.
