Part ⅢReading Comprehension （单选题，共10小题，每题3分，共90分）There are 6 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.

Passage 1

Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict(迷),” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled(皱的).” Today David wears casual clothes — khaki pants and a sports shirt — to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I’m working harder than ever,” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”

More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work.

In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s,many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday).This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing,” said business adviser Measly Jones.

Why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”

41. David Smith refers to himself as having been “a clothes addict” because ____________.

A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirt

B. he couldn’t stand a clean appearanc e

C. he wanted his clothes to look tidy and clean all the time

D. he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes

42. David Smith wears casual clothes now, because ____________.

A. they make him feel at ease when working

B. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothes

C. he looks handsome in casual clothes

D. he no longer works for any company

43. According to this passage, which of the following is FALSE?

A. Many workers don’t like a conservative dress code.

B. Comfortable clothes make workers more productive.

C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young workers.

D. All the employers in the U.S. are for casual office wear.

44. According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago.

B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.

C. “Dress-down Friday” was first given as a favor from employers.

D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.

45. In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT ____________.

A. saving worker’s money

B. making workers more attractive

C. improving worker’s feeling

D. making workers happier

Passage 2

People in the United States honor their parents with two special days: Mother’s Day, on the second Sunday in May, and Father’s Day, on the third Sunday in June.

Mother’s Day was proclaimed a day for national observance by Presid ent Woodrow Wilson in 1915. Ann Jarvis from Grafton, West Virginia, had started the idea to have a day to honor mothers. She was the one who chose the second Sunday in May and also began the custom of wearing a carnation.

In 1909, Mrs. Dodd from Spokane, Washington, thought of the idea of a day to honor fathers. She wanted to honor her own father, William Smart. After her mother died, he had the responsibility of raising a family of five sons and a daughter. In 1910, the first Father’s Day was observed in Spokane. Senator Margaret Chase Smith helped to established Father’s Day as a national commemorative day, in 1972.

These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care.

These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On Mother’s Day people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery. On these days families get together at home, as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecues for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.

46. According to the passage, which of the following about the second Sunday in May is NOT true?

A. It is a day to show love to mothers.

B. It is a day to wear carnations.

C. It is a day for people to visit the cemetery.

Passage 3

The Boulder Library sponsored Boulder's 42nd Art Fair this weekend. The two-day event was held, as usual, at Memorial Park. Almost 100 artists showed up each day. More than 1000 locals and visitors strolled through the shady park each day, as temperatures remained in the comfortable 21°C all weekend.

All kinds of arts were on display and for sale. Prices ranged from a couple of dollars to a couple of thousand dollars. Oscar, a native of Peru,was selling his beautiful paintings of the mountain village of Ayacucho, where he lives most of the year. “Every year I come to the United States to sell my paintings at about five different art shows. Then I return to my country. That is where I do all my paintings, in our beautiful mountains.” Peter is a photographer. He travels throughout the southwest US. One of his favorite areas is northeast Arizona. A Navajo woman was selling her own rug weavings at the fair. She was busy creating a rug while visitors watched. When asked how long it took , she replied that her creations usually took months.

The exhibit areas were located throughout the park. Artists’ creations included jewelry, bird houses, gourd (葫芦) art, furniture, pottery, handmade musical instruments, music CDs and sculpture. “This was another successful year for our art fair,” said the head librarian . “The artists sold enough of their works to encourage them to return next year, and the library raised almost $700 from sales of various items. We 'll use this money to purchase a few more tables and chairs.”

Passage 4

Nobody expected the film to be such a success. The actors and crew of British movies will no longer be disco uraged as the losers at Oscar’s awards ceremonies. At the recent 81st Oscar’s ceremony, British actors and movies won no less than 11 awards. The list of Oscar winners is usually dominated（主宰）by American films and actors, but 2009 has seen a more international favor to the ceremony.

British actors and actresses have long awaited such global recognition. Kate Winslet was nominated(提名) six times for her brilliant performance in The Reader for an Oscar before she eventually won the Best Actress award at this year’s ceremony. Slumdog Millionaire lived up to its

status as a global success and movie phenomenon. The low-budget movie won eight Oscars, including Best Director and Best Picture. The movie, which documents the life of a young Indian boy after he wins a TV game show, has definitely helped to raise the reputation of the British film industry.

Summarizing the national feeling, British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, issued a statement saying “Britain is showing it has the talent to lead the world.” A spokes man for the UK Film Council agreed with Mr. Brown’s comments but added “many of this year’s movie winners have benefited from national funding and that last night proved that government support for film can deliver success on a global range”.

Addressing the growing passion for British film, Slumdog Millionaire director Danny Boyle has urged people to remain calm and to be realistic after his remarkable Oscar success. “You’ve got to be careful of claiming that this marks the renaissance of the British film industry. It is one film,” he said.

56. What’s the main idea of the passage?

A. Slumdog Millionaire won all the Oscars this year.

B. British film made a hit at the 81st Oscar.

C. Films in Britain get more national funding.

D. American films will no longer dominate Oscar.

57. According to the passage we can conclude that ____________.

A. The British are proud of the success of the UK film at the 81st Oscar

B. The British actors and actresses have never expected to win Oscars

C. British films have never won any Oscars before

D. British films become better than American films

58. Which may be a main reason for the success of British films?

A. They are produced at lower budget.

B. Many international film stars participate in the British films.

C. The directors made great efforts to modify the films.

D. British government is in favor of the film industry.

59. In which column can you most possibly read the passage in a newspaper?

A. Entertainment.

B. Economy.

C. Health.

D. Politics.

60. We can learn from what Danny Boyle said that ____________.

A. he will never win such a success in the future

C. his film can represent the British film industry

D. Slumdog Millionaire is only one of his remarkable films

Passage 5

The Web Way to Learn a Language

The young woman seated next to us at the restaurant had an exotic (异国的) air, her looks and style, we thought, made it likely that she was not American born. But then she spoke in perfect American English, even ending her sentences in a way many young Californians do. As it turns out, however, she wasn't from these parts after all; she was born in Iran and spoke only Persian until her arrival here two years ago. How, we wondered, had she learned English so

Learning a language sometimes seems as difficult as dieting. The solution is to figure out how to stay interested after the novelty wears off. Online language programs have introduced crossword puzzles, interactive videos and other games to reward users for making progress.

How do you choose which program to use? “Sites with human contact work best,” a language professor in Australia said, “The shows the advantage of humans compared to computers.”

The British Broadcasting Corporation (https://www.wendangku.net/doc/bf13104901.html,) offers varying levels of instruction for 36 languages, with features including audio and video playback and translation. Besides, simpler versions of these programs may be used on smart phones and other digital devices. All these represent a new trends in the web way of learning languages. Make use of one or more of these new programs and you will learn languages more effectively.

61.Which of the following statements is true about the young woman seated next to us at the restaurant?

The servants were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow (暗淡的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a

College English Test Part I Skimming and Scanning (Each item: 1 point; total: 10 points) [15 minutes] Directions: In this part, you will go over the passage quickly and choose the best answer to each question and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. For questions 1 - 7, mark A. Y, B. N and C. NG; For questions 8- 10, fill in the balnk with proper words Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. World of the Future Scientists think that wonderful things may come true in the future. Future means a time that is not yet here. It can be a short time from now or a long time from now. Some of the underwater wonders are almost ready to come true now. Others won't come tree, we think, until a long time from now. Some, of course, may never come true--but who knows for sure? They may. What are some of the wonders that may come true in the future? A world underground The green utopia (an ideally perfect place) underground is going to help us regain a more harmonious relationship between the often opposing sides of large-scale development and our ecosystem. The city may be called Alice City, from Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland, which offers a wonderful world that is almost as fantastical as that was described in the book. A large clear dome (圆顶), within an area of open parkland, leads into a multi-leveled structured metropolis of underground offices, housing, transportation and public areas. There will be everything to make the city as self-sufficient as possible including shopping malls, theatres and sports complexes in addition to facilities (contained in a separate structure) for power generation, heating and waste recycling. Apart from offering an almost limitless space for development, such underground development has many more attractive ecological advantages over traditional forms of housing. It is less disturbing than high rise development and therefore favorable in environmentally sensitive areas. Land above the complex can be set aside for parkland and recreational use. In towns or cities where pollution levels are high, air can be filtered through air pipes in the roof of an underground housing or industrial complex. A world underwater At the docks you step into a shiny metal submarine that is shaped like a shark. The door is closed behind you, and powerful engine starts to push. Down slides the submarine--like a shark diving. Deeper and deeper under the water. Soon all sunlight is gone. The headlights of the diving ship are turned on. Then, six miles below, you come to the sea bottom. From the diving submarine, you change to tiny jet boat and ride along close to the bottom of the ocean, almost as you would skim over the land in an air-plane. As you travel, you have fun looking out the window at the sights on the bottom of the ocean. You see strange fish and underwater mountains, cliffs, and valleys. But more than that--hotels and mining camps and farms and factories! A world in space Let's go back to dry land and take a future journey the other way-up instead of down. Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the Moon Camp. You walk around on the moon in a special moon suit. You visit an observatory where a giant telescope looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been able to see from Earth. You go deep down into one of the moon mines. After you have visited the moon, you visit the Mars Colony and the Venus Exploration Outpost. A new world on the Earth Let's go back to Earth. In the far, far future, girls--and boys, too--may be playing with dolls that look like the people of the planets visited by our spacemen. To control or run all kinds of toys, boys and girls may learn to use special computers --machines that answer questions and do arithmetic faster than you can blink. Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer. Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy (心灵感应) helmets that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! Robots There will be other surprises in the future. How would you like to have a robot playmate? Having robot playmates may not be-so much fun as it seems. But maybe a boy with a wrench (扳手) and a screwdriver can fix the robot so that it won't be too perfect! Food What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial --made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. You don't think that ice-cream or cake or candy or even bread and potatoes made out of these things will taste very good? You may be wrong. These artificial things will be blended so skillfully by food chemists that the food of the future probably will be delicious. It probably will also be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. A longer life Scientists of the future will almost certainly find other ways to make life last longer. They probably will find cures for most diseases. Hospitals will probably have "body banks" that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. TV Are you wondering whether there'll be television in the future? There'll almost certainly be wonderful programs. Television screens probably will be large and flat, hanging on the wall or going across the four walls of a room. People on the screen will look as real as if they were right in the room with you. Highways What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer. Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the "driver" wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving by car will be as safe as being at home. Weather control But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the "weatherman" thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live. But the time you axe living in now was also "a wonderful future" to the people who lived 100 years ago. 1. The underground city would get its name from a book called Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland. A. Y B. N C. NG 2. The multi-leveled structure underground would include everything that is necessary to a city, from offices, shopping malls to power and heating system. A. Y B. N C. NG

Such an imbalance exists when the total value of a country’s imports exceeds that of its exports. For example, if a country buys $25 billion of products from other countries, yet sells only $10 billion of its own products overseas, its trade deficit（贸易逆差）is $15 billion. Many underdeveloped nations find themselves in this position because they lack natural resources or the industrial capacity to use these resources, and thus have to import
