　　Part II Reading Comprehension (40 %)

　　Passage I

　　What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange, or red'? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观主义者), a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet. shy. and you would rather follow than lead.You tend to be a pessimist (悲观主义者) . At least, this is what psychologists tell us. and they should know. because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colours preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. They tell us, among other facts. that we do not choose our favourite clour as we grow up-we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.

　　Colours do influence our moods------there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing. A black bridge over the Thames River, Near London, used to be the scene of more suicides (自杀) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell down sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.

　　Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better. harder. and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.

　　36. The sentence "You would rather follow than lead" in paragraph l means that you would .

　　A. like to lead followers B. be afraid of following others

　　C. be a member rather than a leader D. like to be a leader rather than a follower

　　37. If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer .

　　A. red to yellow B. blue to orange C. blue to yellow D. red to grey

　　38. Which of the following statements is true?

　　A. People's preference of one colour to another is instinct.

　　B. People's preference of one colour to another is acquired as they grow up.

　　C. Factory workers meet fewer accidents when their machines are painted grey.

　　D. More people happen to love brown because they saw it when they were born.

　　39. Those who committed suicide preferred the bridge over the Thames River to others because of its .

　　A. Shape B. colour C. structure D. materials

　　40. The main idea of the passage is that_ .

　　A. colours affect people's mood B. colours affect people's character

　　C. bright colours make people more active D. colours preference shows people's courage

　　Passage 2

　　Charlotte Hollins knows she faces a battle. The 23-year-old British farmer and her 21-year-old brother Ben are fighting to save the farm from the city developers that their father worked on since he was 14. While she is confident they will succeed. she lists farming's many challenges: "You don't often get a day off. Supermarkets put a lot of pressure on farmers to keep prices down. With fewer people working on farms it can be isolating." she said. "There is a high rate of suicide and farming will never make you rich!"

　　Oliver Robinson. 25, grew up on a farm in Yorkshire. But he never considered staying on his father and grandfather's land. "I'm sure Dan hoped I'd stay," he said. "I guess it's a nice, straightforward life, but it doesn't appeal. For young ambitious people, farm life would be a hard world." For Robinson. farming doesn't offer much in terms of money or lifestyle. Hollins agrees that economics stops people from pursuing farming rewards: "providing for a vital human need .while working outdoors with nature."

　　Farming is a big political issue in the UK. "Buy British" campaigns encourage consumers not to buy cheaper imported foods. The 2001 "foot and mouth crisis" closed thousands of farms, stopped meat exports, and raised public consciousness of troubles in British farming. Jamie Oliver's 2005 campaign to get children to eat healthily also highlighted the issue. This national concern brings hope for farmers competing with powerful supermarkets. While most people buy food from the big supermarkets. hundreds of independent Farmers' Markets are becoming popular.

　　A. the poor and the rich B. farmers and city developers

　　42. In the eyes of Charlotte Hollins, _____makes fewer people work on farms.

　　A. rich life of farmers B. a low rate of suicide

　　43. According to the passage, more and more young people leave their fathers' land because

　　farming cannot offer .

　　A. a hard world B. a vital human need

　　C. a nice and straightforward life D. enough money and honourable life

　　44. "Buy British" campaigns____.

　　Passage 3

　　No one knows exactly how many disabled people (残疾人) there are in the word. But estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.

　　In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people: as we get older. many of us will become less mobile, hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.

　　Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on. the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents.Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.

　　Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But

　　there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through. so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability. not their disability, which counts.

　　46. The first paragraph tells us that .

　　A. the number of disabled people in India is the greatest

　　B. there are less than 450 million disabled people in the world

　　C. there are more than 450 million disabled people in the world

　　D. the number of disabled people in India is equal to the total population of Canada

　　47. The key word in paragraph 4 is _

　　A. Disability B. Ignorance C. prejudice D. barriers

　　48. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

　　A. There are about 10 percent disabled people in the UK.

　　B. There still exists prejudice against the disabled because of ignorance.

　　C. Even the able-bodied might lose some of their body functions when they get older.

　　D. The whole society should pay attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.

　　49. The clause "which counts" in the last paragraph means that .

　　A. ability is the most important B. disability is considered

　　C. disability is included D. barrier is the most important

　　50. It can be concluded from the passage that .

　　A. we should try our best to prevent disablement

　　B. we should take a proper attitude towards the disabled

　　C. both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down

　　D. the able-bodied will never fully understand the disabled

　　Passage 4

　　It is really a surprise that after hundreds of years, educationists have still failed to design anything more efficient and reliable than examinations. It is claimed that examinations test what you know, but it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They may be a good means of testing memory, or the skills of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person's true ability.

　　As anxiety-makers, examinations are second to none. That is because so much depends on them. They are the mark of success or failure in our society. Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day. No one can show his best in worry, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do.

　　A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The examination system however, does anything but that. What has to be learnt is laid down by a syllabus (教学大纲) ,so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, and they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge. Furthermore, teachers themselves are often judged by the results of their students' examinations. Consequently, they have to train their students to master exam techniques which they dislike.They most successful candidates are not always the best educated but the best trained.

　　The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous (匿名的) examiners. They certainly make mistakes. because they have to mark mountains of scripts (答卷) in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates.

　　51. The main idea of this passage is that examinations are .

　　A. anxiety-makers B. harmful to education

　　C. reliable and efficient D. good measures of memory

　　52. It is clear that the author ____ examinations.

　　A. argues for B. argues against C. is interested in D. is indifferent to

　　53. The fate of students is decided by according to the passage.

　　A. examination B. Education C. teaching D. learning

　　54. According to the author, the most importance of a good education is to .

　　A. encourage students to read widely B..teach students how to tackle exams

　　C. train students to think on their own D. encourage students to seek more knowledge

　　55. Which statement is NOT mentioned in the passage?

　　A. Examinations can make students anxious.

　　B. The examiners might make mistakes in marking.

　　C. Teachers ' work is .judged based on the results of examinations.

　　D. Tools better than examinations to test students' ability have been found.

　　Part III Cloze (10%)

　　When I come across a good article in reading newspapers, I often want to cut and keep it.But just as I am about to do so I find the 56 on the opposite side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to 57 in good health, or a report about 58 to behave and conduct oneself in society.

　　In fact that is what 69 is like. We are often 70 with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable 71 a newspaper cutting.

A famous philosopher 74 said "When one door shuts, another opens in life." So a casual choice may not be a 75 one.

　　71. A. To B. for C. Like D. as

　　72. A. After B. Before C. until D. since

　　73. A. Front B. Next C. above D. former

　　74. A. Still B. Ever C. Already D. almost

　　75. A. Good B. Rich C. Bad D. weak
