For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question. Passage One Being a man has always been dangerous. There are about 105 males born for every 100 females. However, this number changes a great deal, and by the age of maturity , the number of young men is about the same as that of young women. And among 70-year old people, there are twice as many women as men. But this great universal truth is changing. Now, boy babies survive almost as well as girls do. This means that for the first time there will be too many boys in those crucial years when boys are searching for a mate. What is even more troubling is that the survival of so many boys has removed a chance for natural selection to do its work. Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of the difference in weight is due to genes, a force of change has gone. There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15 children. Nowadays the number of births, like the age of death, has become average. Most of us have roughly the same number of |
children. Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have disappeared. For us, this means that people will no longer experience the physical changes that other living things do; our bodies are as perfect as they are ever going to be. Strangely, we have been able to make great advancements without physical change. In the past 100,000 years—even the past 100 years—our lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. We managed to make such changes because of technology and social systems. Darwin had a phrase to describe those ignorant of the process of change; they "look at living beings like a dog looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond their comprehension." No doubt we will be shocked at the ugliness of the 20th century way of life. But however amazed future people may be at how far from perfection we were, those future people will look just like us. 41. According to the author, what was the danger a man had to face in the past? A. Lack of mates. B. Strong competition. C. Lower chance of living to maturity. D. Genes. 42. The sentence "There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide" perhaps means ________________. A. there is another way to stop the society from making progress B. you can kill yourself by another means C. there is another factor to prevent us from evolving D. we have to find a way to do something 43. Women except __________ are having relatively small numbers of children. A. those who live to be very old B. those who live in religious communities C. those who have the advantage of technology D. those who live in poor countries 44. The author argues that our bodies have stopped evolving because ____________________________. A. life has been improved by technological advancement B. the number of female babies has been declining C. we have reached the highest stage of evolution D. the difference between wealth and poverty is disappearing 45. What is this passage mainly about? A. The change in the numbers of boys and girls. B. Ways of continuing man's evolution. C. The evolution future of nature. D. Human evolution going nowhere. Passage Two Jim was a young man who was honest and worthy of trust, so his boss was pleased with him. As he was easy to deal with, he was popular with his workmates, too. Though they made fun of him a great deal, he never got angry with them. But Jim’s one great shortcoming was that he could never tell a lie, no matter how hard he tried, not even a little one. In fact, he was so honest and shy that he would blush (脸红) even when he was telling the truth. He used to stand in front of the mirror and practice lying while looking himself in the eye at the same time. As soon as he told a lie he’d see his face starting to go red he had to look away. One morning, however, he didn’t feel like going to work. He had been to a party the night before that hadn’t ended until the early hours of the morning. And so for the first time in his life he decided to take the day off. But in order to do this, he’d have to lie to his boss. He called his boss, pretending to be a woman. “I’m afraid Jim can’t come to work today. He isn’t feeling very well.” Poor Jim was thankful that his boss couldn’t see him just at that moment because his face was bright red. “Thank you for letting me know,” said Mr. Woods, his boss, and then just as he was about to hang up, he said, “Just a moment, madam, who’s speaking?” “Oh!” Jim stammered (口吃地说), and going all-out to make his voice sound like a woman’s, he cried, “This is my landlady speaking!” 46. Jim’s face would always turn red because ________. A. he was honest B. he became embarrassed whenever he lied C. he did not like to talk D. he was getting sick 47. Jim’s weakness was that ________. A. it was easy for him to turn red B. he was honest with anyone C. he could not tell a lie D. he could not speak on the telephone. 48. Why did Jim spend so much time practicing how to lie? A. He liked to lie. B. His friends told him he should lie. C. His boss told him he should lie. D. He wanted to be convincing. 49. Why did he pretend to be woman when he called his boss? A. He was nervous. B. He stammered. C. He wanted to tell a lie. D. He wanted to impress his boss. 50. From the passage, we can conclude that Jim ________. A. told a lie once before B. cheated his boss C. made his boss angry D. could cheat no one Passage Three Robert Spring, a 19th century forger, was so good at his job that he was able to make his living for 15 years by selling false signatures(签名) of famous Americans. Spring was born in England in 1813 and arrived in Philadelphia in 1858 to open a bookstore. At first he prospered光速城市(生意兴隆) by selling his small but real collection of early U. S. signatures. Discovering his ability at copying handwriting, he began imitating signatures of George Washington and Ben Franklin and writing them on the title pages of old books. To lessen the chance of being found out, he sent his forgeries (伪造品) to England and Canada for sale. Forgers have a hard time selling their products. A forger can't approach a respectable buyer but must deal with people who don't have much knowledge in the field. Forgers have many ways to make their work look real. For example, they buy old books to use the aged paper of the title page, and they can treat paper and ink with chemicals. |
In Spring's time, right after the Civil War, Britain was still fond of the Southern states, so Spring invented a respectable lady known as Miss Fanny Jackson, the only daughter of General "Stonewall" Jackson. For several years Miss Fanny's money problems forced her to sell a great number of letters and manuscripts belonging to her famous father. Spring had to work very hard to satisfy the demand. All this activity did not prevent Spring from dying in poverty , leaving sharp-eyed experts the difficult task of separating his forgeries from the originals. 51. According to the context, what does "forger" mean? A. A forger is a person who opens a bookshop. B. A forger is a person who is good at his job. C. A forger is a person who loves to cheat people. D. A forger is a person who makes false things such as signatures. 52. How did Spring make his first fortune? A. He prospered by selling fake signatures of famous people. B. He became rich by selling books. C. He became rich by selling his collection of real signatures. D. He received a large amount of money from one of his relatives. 53. What was the trouble for forgers in their business mentioned in this passage? A. They could not find anyone who was willing to buy their forgeries. B. They found it very hard to forge the signatures of those famous people. C. They found it difficult to sell their forgeries to people with knowledge. D. They had no way to make their products attractive and true. 54. According to the passage, what can be said about Spring? A. He was very good at forgery and earned money doing it. B. He tried many times to make good forgeries but failed. C. He could not meet the demand of Miss Fanny and was poor for a short time. D. He prospered on his forgery and extended his business to many parts of the world. 55. What is the tone of this passage? A. Boastful. B. Approving. C. Objective D. Critical. Passage Four After-sales service and guarantee(质保，保证) become an integral and essential part of a “good brand” on both local and regional levels, and the provision of such also produces solid ground for customer loyalty. Customers today are a lot more demanding than before. Being able to find after-sales service creates a feeling of convenience and a sense of responsibility from the manufacturer. This is very important to build customer loyalty and explains why more 24-hour hotline centers are available nowadays. Product guarantee is also one of the major factors when a potential customer decides to make a purchase. Whether this is in the form of a written guarantee or a guarantee based on reputation, the importance to the consumer is self-evident. A brand’s research and development, an unavoidable investment, usually back up safety guarantees for marketers nowadays. Product testing and refinement are conducted for both new and existing products. With the help of computerized machinery, quality control has achieved the highest level than ever before to enable consistency in production. For the consumer this means a quality of guarantee for that brand whether it be available at home or abroad. 56. After-sales service and guarantee can provide the customers with ______. A. solid ground for loyalty B. sense of responsibility C. a feeling of convenience D. sense of satisfaction 57. More 24-hour hotline centers appear because ______. A. more and more customers demand after-sales services B. there are more and more complaints from customers C. more companies come to realize the importance of after-sales services D. they have become a new type of investment 58. Product guarantee ______. A. should be in written form B. can be based on a company’s reputation C. is not often provided by companies D. often fails to satisfy customers in reality 59. Product testing and refinement are conducted for ______. A. new products only B. quality products C. dangerous products D. both new and existing products 60. Which is NOT mentioned concerning product guarantee? A. A brand’s research & development. B. Product testing and refinement. C. Quality control. D. Product distribution. |

The most valuable lesson I gained from studying in France wasn’t just to respect the friend people 79 to respect all people, for your next best friend could be just a continent away.
