Part II Reading Comprehension(35 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D)。 You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage One
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.
My father's reaction to the bank building at 43rd Street and Fifth Avenue in New York city was immediate and definite: "You won't catch me putting my money in there!" he declared, "Not in that glass box !"
Of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is upsetting, but I am convinced that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money .
In his generation money was thought of as a real commodity (实物)that could be carried, or stolen. Consequently, to attract the custom of a sensible man, a bank had to have heavy walls, barred windows, and bronze doors, to affirm the fact, however untrue, that money would be safe inside. If a building's design made it appear impenetrable, the institution was necessarily reliable, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architecture symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money.
But the attitude toward money has, of course, changed. Excepting pocket money, cash of any kind is now rarely used; money as a tangible commodity has largely been replaced by credit. A deficit (赤字) economy, accompanied by huge expansion, has led us to think of money as product of the creative imagination. The banker no longer offers us a safe: he offers us a service in which the most valuable element is the creativity for the invention of large numbers. It is in no way surprising, in view of this change in attitude, that we are witnessing the disappearance of the heavy-walled bank.
Just as the older bank emphasized its strength, this bank by its architecture boasts of imaginative powers. From this point of view it is hard to say where architecture ends and human assertion (人们的说法)begins.
11. The main idea of this passage is that .
A) money is not as valuable as it was in the past
B) changes have taken place in both the appearance and the concept of banks
C) the architectural style of the older bank is superior to that of the modern bank
D) prejudice makes the older generation think that the modern bank is unreliable
12. How do the older generation and the younger one think about money?
A) The former thinks more of money than the latter.
B) The younger generation values money more than the older generation.
C) Both generations rely on the imaginative power of bankers to make money.
D) To the former money is a real commodity but to the latter be a means to produce more money.
13. The word "tangible" (Line 2, Para. 4 ) refers to something .
A) that is precious B) that is usable C) that can be touched D) that can be reproduced
14. According to this passage, a modern banker should be .
A) ambitious and friendly B) reliable and powerful
C) sensible and impenetrable D) imaginative and creative
15. It can be inferred from the passage that the author's attitude towards the new trend in banking is .
A) cautious B) regretful C) positive D) hostile
Passage Two
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.
Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doyle's husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again. Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair. They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.
Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a good-bye close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them.
Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home—the highest in 15 years. Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity.
To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and selfconfidence. Even the finality of death might be preferable. At least it does not imply rejection or failure. Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life.
Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive. "It's typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people's pain and difficulties. Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act. By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty."
The Salvation Army's Investigation Department has a 70 per cent success rate in tracking missing people down. According to Lt. Co. Bramwell Pratt, head of the department, men and women run away for very different reasons though lack of communication is often the biggest motive. "The things that disturb a man's personality are problems like being tied up in debt. Or serious worries about work. And some women make impossible demands on their husbands. Women usually leave for more obvious reasons but fear is at the root of it. Men are more often prepared to give their marriage another try than women, but we are aware that, for some wives, it would be a total impossibility to return after the way they've been treated."
16. When her husband left home, Eileen Doyle .
A) could not forgive him for taking the children
B) had been expecting it to happen for some time
C) could not understand why
D) blamed herself for what had happened
17. Most people who leave their families behind them .
A) do so without warning B) do so because of their debts
C) come back immediately D) change their names
18. The man or woman left behind usually .
A) admits responsibility for the situation
B) wishes the person who has left were dead
C) feels embarrassed and uselesscomes back within a year
D) will have no legal marriage life for seven years
19. Paul Brown regards leaving home in such circumstances as .
A) an act of despair
B) an act of selfishness
C) the result of a sudden decision
D) the result of the enormous sense of guilt
20. The Salvation Army believes that .
A) most men run away because of the impossible demands of their wives
B) men's reasons are more understandable than women's
C) some women never give their men another chance
D) women are often afraid to start marriage again
Passage Three
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
The English have the reputation of being very different from all other nationalities. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed some attitudes and habits distinguishing him from other nationalities.
Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person among people he knows well. Before strangers he often seems inhibited, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a railway compartment any morning or evening to see the truth. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing (打盹) in a corner; no one speaks. An English wit once suggested to overseas visitors, "On entering a railway compartment shake hands with all the passengers." Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, if broken, makes the person immediately the object of suspicion.
It is well known that the English seldom show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion etc. Of course, an Englishman feels no less than any other nationality. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A man of more emotional temperament might describe her as "a marvelous jewel"， while the Englishman will flatly state "Um, she's all right"。 An Englishman may recommend a highly successful and enjoyable film to friends by commenting, "It's not bad." The overseas visitors must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest; he must realize that "all right"， "not bad" are very often used with the sense of "first class"， "excellent"。 This special use of language is particularly common in English.
21. One explanation for the different character of English people is that .
A) they are geographically isolated from the European continent
B) they have nothing to do with the other Europeans
C) they like to keep quiet among their acquaintances
D) they tend to be reserved by nature
22. The word "inhibited" (Line 2, Para. 2) in this passage probably means .
A) unable to have good manners B) unable to express and relax freely
C) able to act properly D) able to talk freely
23. According to the passage, on entering a railway compartment, an overseas visitor is expected to .
A) inquire about the code of behavior in the train
B) shake hands with all the passengers
C) shake hands with the person he knows
D) behave like an Englishman
24. The English way of commenting on something or somebody suggests that .
A) the English are modest in most circumstances
B) the English feel no less than any other nationality
C) the English tend to display less emotion than they feel
D) the English don't take a strong interest in making comment
25. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A) The differences between the English and the other Europeans.
B) The different character of the English man and its reason.
C) The reasons for English people's shyness.
D) The code of behavior of the nationalities in Europe.
Passage Four
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions, the basis for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.
Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It includes not only "remembering" things like arithmetic or historical facts, but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed (嗅出) something suspicious in the grain pile.
Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers, for example, contain devices for storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 "words"—string of alphabetic or numerical characters—ready for instant use. An average U.S. teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information that the teenager has stored. Consider, for example, the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.
The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person's memory is in terms of words and combinations of words. But while language greatly expands the number and kind of things a person can remember, it also requires a huge memory capacity. It may well be this capacity that distinguishes humans, setting them apart from other animals.
26. Which of the following is true about memory?
A) It helps us perceive things happening around us every day.
B) It is based on the decisions we made in the past.
C) It is rooted in our past habits and skills.
D) It connects our past experiences with the present.
27. According to the passage, memory is helpful in one's life in the following aspects EXCEPT that .
A) it involves a change in one's behavior
B) it keeps information for later use
C) it warns people not to do things repeatedly
D) it enables one to remember events that happened in the past
28. What is the author's view about computers and human beings in terms of intelligence?
A) Computers have better memory than a child does.
B) Computers are as intelligent as a teenager is.
C) Computers can understand as many as 100,000 words.
D) Human beings are far superior to computers.
29. What is the major characteristic of man's memory capacity according to the author?
A) It can be expanded by language.
B) It can remember all the combined words.
C) It may keep all the information in the past.
D) It may change what has been stored in it.
30. Human beings make themselves different from other animals by .
A) having the ability to perceive danger
B) having a far greater memory capacity
C) having the ability to recognize faces and places on sight
D) having the ability to draw on past experiences

Part IV Short Answer Questions (15 minutes)
Directions: In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words ( not exceeding 10 words )。
The way our society is structured affects all human relationships. Outside the home we have a system of power relationship: worker/employer, individual/state, etc, and most people feel particularly powerless if their specific situation is beyond their control. The resultant stresses need outlets.
There are many different outlets. Many of us are inclined at least sometimes to take out our frustration(挫折)on people nearest to us. The kind of destructive outlet that a woman uses may be physical—either against her husband or children—but more often it is directed towards her children who cannot walk out. Commonly, women turn violent feelings inwards: twice as many women as men suffer from depression(抑郁症)。 Women are the most vulnerable(脆弱的)to depression. As far as men are concerned, they have been brought up to use their fists—and even encouraged to do so. So a man's outlet can, in its extreme form, involve physical violence against his wife and family. Many women have no way to escape: they cannot easily leave home. Compared with men, women are relatively powerless.
Women are expected to look after their children. Many women are consequently totally dependent on their husbands-incomes, or earn a little money at part-ime, low-paid jobs. Fathers, on the other hand, are not seen by society as responsible for the care of their children. A man can still drink all his earnings if he wishes. One of the reasons some women put up with beating for so long is because they are concerned about how they could bring up the children with little money on their own if they left. Often, women finally leave only when they fear that their children are themselves in physical or mental danger from their fathers.
的Questions:(注意；答题尽量简短，超过10个词要扣分。每条横线限写一个英语单词，标点符号不占格。)
S1. Human relationships outside and inside the home are based on .

Section B
After retiring from 30 years of teaching, Ethbell Pepper could easily have decided to sit back and relax and enjoy a peaceful retirement. But that kind of life is not for Ethbell Pepper. "I just wanted to do something different. If you are going to participate in life, do it. Don't just sit down and look out the window." She says. At 68, she decided to become one of the pioneer participants in a program at the University of California. The program offers campus housing and classes to people over sixty. She enrolled in a class called Human Relationships and Diverse Society. "I taught my minority students in my English and drama classes in a high school for 20 years. But in this course, I found out a lot about other cultures I didn't know then. One of the most important lessons that I'm learning is to perceive, not to judge."
Older adults can add to the educational resources of the university by bringing with them a lot of valuable experience. Their presence on campus helps break some of long beliefs about aging. Young students may have fears of growing older. But that kind of fear can be reduced as they see that older people can be active, healthy, and continue to contribute to society. The younger students can begin to see aging as a natural part of living.
Part II Reading Comprehension
11．主旨题 该题要求学生总结文章的主题。文章主要写了银行发展的两个方面：一是银行的外在建筑风格，过去的银行通常有heavy walls, barred windows 以及bronze doors，给人以非常可靠、的放心踏实的感觉；二是银行的功能转变。选项B正是恰当的概括，所以应该是正确答案。文章并无涉及现在和过去对钱的价值比较，所以A项“钱不如过去值钱”不对。文章也没有对比哪种建筑风格更好，所以C项“过去的银行的建筑风格比现代银行的建筑风格更好”也不对。D项说“偏见使得老一辈人认为现代银行不可靠”，不符合文章意思。
12．细节归纳题 问题问老一代人与年轻一代人对钱的认识态度是什么？老一代人的看法可以从第三段开头看出：“In his generation money was thought of as a real commodity that....”年轻一代对钱的看法可以从第四段第四行至第六行，尤其是“....he offers us a service in which the most valuable element is the creativity for the invention of large numbers.”从上可以归纳出D项为该题的正确答案。
13．语义题 该题较容易，只要参阅第三段“commodity”后的定语从句“that could be carried, or stolen.”这实际上就是解释老一代人对钱的看法，他们认为钱是可以被携带或被偷走，也就是可以能摸得到的实实在在的东西，C项正确。
14．细节推论题 问题问现代银行应该具有什么功能？四选项的意思分别是：A）“充满雄心且友好”；B）“可靠且威力无穷”；C）“明智且不可穿越”；D）“富有想象且有创造性”。要回答这个问题，应定位在文章第四段，从中不难看出现代银行应该是富有想象力并且有创造力。
15．推论题 该题要求学生判断作者对银行的外在风格和功能的转变这一趋势的态度。最明确的提示应该是第四段开头“But the attitude toward money has, of course, changed.”随后进一步分析了现代银行不同于过去银行的功能，作者用了“creative imagination”, 可以看出其态度是肯定的。C项正确。
16．细节理解题 问题问“当她的丈夫离家出走时，Eileen Doyle怎么样？”根据第一段第三行“They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage.”（他们一直是幸福的家庭，就Eileen Doyle所知，他们的婚姻没有丝毫问题。）可以断定C)“（她）不明白为什么”应该是正确答案。其余三项均不符合文章意思。
17．细节理解题 问题问“离开家庭的大多数人”。该题较简单，解题依据应该是文章第二段，其大意为：一年中的每一天都有一小帮男人和女人悄然收拾几件行李，没有留下任何纸条或说一声再见，最后一次关上前门离家出走了，把他们的债务、的他们的忧虑、的还有迷惑不解的家庭抛在身后。A项正确。
18．细节推论题 问题的题干应该在第四段开头，所以答案在此之后“...Worse than that, ... an unfinished marriage,... wait seven years before...”C项“感到尴尬和无用”正是这种意思。
19．细节理解题 依据第五段第二行“It’s typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people’s pain and difficulties.”B项说“这是一种自私行为”，为正确答案。A)“这是种绝望行为”；C)“这是突然决定的结果”；D)“这是沉重负疚感的结果”。
20．细节推论题 A项说“男人女人离家出走是为了交流”与文中最后一段第二句矛盾。依据是文章最后一段最后三行“Men are more often prepared to give their marriage another try than women, but we are aware that, for some wives, it would be a total impossibility to return after the way they’ve been treated.”C的意思正是“做妻子的在饱受折磨后再也不可能重回家园”的批论。D）“害怕重新结婚”不同于“重回家园”，或“重续前婚”。
21．细节理解题 问题问“英国人具有不同性格的一种解释是”。依据第一段第二句“It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it.”意思是：英国人与其他民族之所以很不相同，这与居住在一个与欧洲隔离开来的岛上有很大关系。所以答案应该是A项。
22．语义题 根据该词出现的语境，具体说该词的上文：“...the Englishman is a quiet, shy, reserved person among people he knows well.”从中了解到在熟人面前，英国人都是害羞、的沉静、的寡言的，那么见到陌生人，可知他们必定是拘束的、的不放松的。所以B项应该是正确答案。
23．推断题 文章第二段中引述的“进入车厢时应同所有旅客握手”只是一句戏言，作者的实际意思正好相反，一个人不能违背英国那一套行为规矩。所以D项为正确答案。
24．推论题 文章第三段说“英国人很少公开表露极端的热情和情感，尽管英国人并不比其他民族的人感受少。”随后所举的英国人的谦虚、的淡漠的表达方式表明英国人表现情感很节制，所以C项为正确答案。
25．主旨题 文章主要谈了英国人缄默，情感不外露的性格及其原因。B项是恰如其分的概括。A项范围太范，C项只是局部，不足以概括全文，D项范围太大。
26．细节判断题 依据为第一段第三行“...are to be found in our past experiences, which are brought into the present by memory.”
27．细节判断题 本题考查学生对事实的辨认。A、的B、的D诸项文章均提及，只有C项没有提到。
28．细节归纳题 文章在第三段比较了电脑与人两者都有很大的记忆量，但相对人脑的记忆力而言，那只是很少的一部分（a fraction of the total amount），言下之意，人类优于电脑。D项为正确答案。
29．细节理解题 问题问“作者认为人类的记忆量的主要特征是什么？”根据最后一段内容可知：人的大部分记忆都通过词语完成的，它扩大了人的记忆量的数量和种类。
30．细节理解题 问题问“人类是依靠哪一点和其他动物区别开来的？”该题较简单。依据是文章最后一句“It may will be this capacity that distinguishes humans, setting them apart from other animals.”

Model Essay
Colleges have Opened their Doors Wider
Colleges have opened their doors wider in recent years because the student population has increased enormously from 4 million to more than 7 million in less than six years since 1997. Is this a good thing?
Some argue that the enrollment increase will benefit individuals and the society as well. It allows more students to pursue higher educations and state loans enable children from poor families to complete their education at Universities and colleges. This may in turn contribute to helping them to eliminate poverty for the society.
Others express concerns over the rapid expansion. They are afraid that some problems may arise from it, for example, the problem of employment. A lot more graduates may have great trouble in finding a job after graduation, which will lead a social problem.
In my opinion, the former view is more reasonable. Admittedly, a rapid increase of graduates seemingly places a heavy burden on the society. However, on second thoughts, we find that it is due to the rapid expansion that, to a great extent, we can delay the approach of the upcoming employment wave. Moreover, just as property and wealth once were key to success, education has become the main provider of individual opportunity in our society and an element that most ensures success in life and eliminates poverty. In this sense, I am convinced that the admission expansion is very instrumental.
