A

One day when a famous artist was on his way home, a young man stopped him and required to have a word with him. The artist accepted his request.

The young man asked, “How can you produce so many beautiful paintings and achieve your fame?”

The artist said, “It seems that you have been thinking of becoming famous every day.”

The young man nodded, “Yes. I have been dreaming of being a person as notable(著名的) as you. Every minute I am thinking of how to become reputable(著名的). I don’t know when I can achieve my fame.”

The artist told him, “Don’t worry, young man, If you want to be a famous man this way, you will have to wait until you die!”

“Why should I?” the young man was puzzled.

The artist said, “What your dream is actually a high building. You never think of how to build it with bricks. Thus the building will never come into reality. However, your story can serve as a mirror. People will remember you because of your idleness(闲散,无聊) and laziness. They will often speak of your name while they give warnings to their children. Aren’t you a notorious(声名狼藉) person by then?”

51. The man asked the artist to tell him ______________.

 A. how to paint so many pictures.

 B. how to become famous

 C. how he became a nobleman

 D. how to become an artist.

52. After hearing his talk, the young man was puzzled because the artist told him ___________.

C. he would die before he was famous

D. he would never be famous

53.. The man didn’t achieve his fame because ____________.

A. his wish was too high

B. he was short of hardworking spirit

C. he didn’t learn from others

D. he was too stupid

54. The story mainly tells us ____________.

A. a person needs high spirit

B. one shouldn’t dream of becoming famous

   C. only by hard work can one’s wish come into reality

D. one person sholdn’t be idle and lazy

55. What does the artist’s words implied?

How often one hears children wishing they were grown-ups, and, old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. What’s more, life is always giving new things to the child——things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is repeatedly being told not to do something, or being punished for what he has wrongly done.

When a young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.

56.According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that      .

    A.life for a child is fairly easy

    B.a child is always loved whatever he does

    C.if much is given to a child, he must do something in return

    D.only children are interested in life

57.The main idea of the passage is that       .

    A.life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains

    B.young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard

    C.childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life

    D.one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life

58.The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss      .

    A.examples of successful young men

    B.how to build up one’s position in society

    C.joys and pains of old people

    D.what to do when one has problems in life

C

In the United States today, a large group of people want a college education. However, everyone is not able to attend a four-year college. Many four-year colleges are already too crowed. To give more people a chance to get a college education, some cities and towns have built junior colleges.

The junior college offers a two-year courses of study in a wide range(范围)of subjects. It prepares some young people to go on to a four-year college. It trains others for jobs in business, government, or industry.

Because junior colleges are built in cities, they can serve many people who live in a large community. Many students can not afford to go to a four-year college. But they can save enough to go to a junior college. The entrance fee at a junior college is low. Students can also save money by living at home.

A junior college admits some high school graduates who would not be accepted at other schools. The four-year college turns down students whose high school grades are low. The junior college will often admit a student who might do well in taking a two-year course.

One of the goals of our country is to educate as many people as possible. The junior college is a school meant to serve many people. It puts a college education within the reach of a great number of people. Without these schools, many people would not be able to continue their education past high school.

59.The main idea of paragraph One is that junior colleges      .

    A.offer two-year courses             B.are as good as four-year colleges

    C.are badly needed                 D.are too crowed

60.According to the passage, junior colleges      .

    A.admit those whose high school grades are not very low

    B.can admit more students than four-year colleges

    C.offer very limited subjects

    D.only train students for jobs in business

61.It is known the passage that     .

    A.all high school graduates can go to colleges

    B.junior colleges are built in cities while four-year colleges are in the country

    C.junior colleges are replacing four-year college

    D.junior college help to make college education popular

D

If you planning to study in the United States, you need to consider several factors (因素). Everyone has different opinions about where is the best place to live in. Also, the best places to live in are not always home to the best schools. What’s more, many schools specialize in different areas of study. They Massachusetts Institute of Technology, for example, is a great school for computer science. And if you want to study oceanography, your interests may be better served by attending school in a place which is near the ocean.

Now I will tell you about which states I believe are the best to live in. California is a nice state. Northern California especially has very good weather. As for me, I enjoyed the time I spent in Massachusetts, Virginia and Mary land. These states have a lot of history and culture. The weather is not so perfect as that in California, but is still quite nice. My favourite of America is the Midwest. Middle America, I think, is home to the true American sense of values. Besides, there are many good universities, too.

Also you need to think about your likes and dislikes and then research the different areas. You like sunshine and hate snow? Then you probably won’t like the Midwest or even the Northeast. Open space, nature, peace and quiet? Then you’d better stay away from America’s larger cities. Are you interested in government? Then Washington D.C. is the only place for you. Whatever you decide, put some thought into it.

62. From the first paragraph we can infer that in the USA      .

    A. all colleges and universities lie in big cities

    B. all colleges and universities lie in beautiful places

    C. famous colleges and universities lie in nice places

    D. famous colleges and universities may not lie in nice places

63.        should be considered first if you want to study in the USA.

    A. The climate  B. The scenery  C. The study condition  D.The living condition

64. The writer likes Middle America best because      .

    A. he feels the real character of the nation here   B. the weather is fine here

    C. the life is full of excitement             D. he likes sunshine and hates snow

65. The passage mainly        .

    A. tells us something about American universities.            

B. gives us some advice on studying in America

    C. lets us know about America          

D. describes the scenery of America

   When you enter a supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk between the shelves. You carry a shopping basket and put your food in it. You probably hear soft, low music as you walk between the shelves. __66  .

   Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department.  67  . Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.

   The department selling milk and milk products such as butter and milk powder is called the dairy department.  68  . One store has three different jars of low fat milk. One says “1 percent fat” on the jar. The second says “99 percent fat free.” The third says “LOW FAT” in big letters and “1 %” in small letters. As you can see, all the milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same,   69 . Maybe the customers will buy the milk that costs the most.

    70  . The expensive meat says “Buy me!” as you walk by. The expensive jar says “Buy me! I have less fat.”

A. However, in this store the three jars of milk cost three different amounts of money.

B. If you hear fast music, you walk quickly. The supermarket plays slow music, and you walk slowly and have more time to buy things.

C. Most of the food in the supermarket is very pleasing. It all says “Buy me!” to the customers.

D. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk by all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat.

Advantanges and disadvantages of the Internet

   Fifteen years ago, the Internet was unheard of by most people. Today, the Internet is one of the most powerful tools throughout the world. The Internet is a collection of various services and resources.

   Many fear the Internet because of its disadvantage. They claim (主张) not to use the Internet because they are simply not interested or are afraid of the possible consequences (后果). Children using the Internet has become a big concern. When children talk to others online, they do not realize they could actually be talking to a person who may harm them later. There are many examples that children have been convinced (说服) to meet people they have talked with online.

   The most common thing the Internet is used for is research. Children and students are among the top ones who use the Internet for research. Today, it is almost required that students use the Internet for research. Another popular thing to do on the Internet is to check out the news. Almost all-local news can be got through the Internet.
