填空题Ma Jian It"s my own decision. Why? Only for the college and specialty I like. I found my exam results fell short of my expectations. In fact, with the results, I could have entered a decent university and studied quite a good specialty. But that"s not what I like. I think my future job will be largely decided by what I learn in college and I don"t like to have a job which I dislike in future. Although I know what kind of hardships I will experience during this one-year restudy, I feel it is worth one more year restudy. Cui Gong My goal is the Dept. of Biology at Peking University. I failed last year by only a few marks. Although computing is a hot faculty that many people strive to get into, I never felt settled and could not forget my dream. So I decided to quit and prepare for another exam. Indeed I face great pressure primarily because I"ve given up a hot specialty and I may fail the next exam. But I have to try whatever the risk, otherwise, it will remain a knot in my heart the rest of my life. Zhao Zuoyi I think the increasing number of re-applicants who have got high scores is a normal phenomenon. It results from the general social atmosphere that reflects changes in social demand. In the 1950s, for instance, all society needed were those who could read and write. You were respected if you were a primary school graduate. Recently, talents with a higher education background are in great demand. Mr Zheng Learning is not merely for learning, but for application. The purpose of learning is to improve the qualification of the learner, to adapt oneself to social development, to broaden the sphere of employment and finally to create values for oneself and society. If I consent to my son having one-year restudy, outwardly my family loses 7 000 Yuan on tuition, but the actual loss is far more than that amount. Now match each of the persons with the appropriate statement. Note: there is one extra statement. Statements A. I quit computing and decide to achieve my dream. B. I think learners should adapt themselves to the social development. C. I want to have a job which I like in the future. D. I think it reflects changes in social demands. E. I don"t want to lose 7000 Yuan for my son to restudy.

填空题Kenneth: Is this saying really true? I have experienced much pain, sadness and sufferings before I find true happiness. I believe it's true that we have to go through pain and suffering to be happy. I think everybody would agree that if we want something, we have to work for it. It feels good to look back at the things you've gone through when you finally got what you wanted. If we worked hard and achieve something, we feel happy.Andrea: Happiness for me is when I feel loved by those I love.., there arc a few persons who can make me feel high for days when they tell me sweet words, compliments, etc.., or just show they care about me as much as I do about them. Happiness is also when I don't worry, when I know that the persons I love are alive, healthy and ok. And it is when I have hope about something I wish to come true.., hope is important.Thomas: In a world like this, where there is no kind of' stability, no possibility of anything lasting, but where everything is thrown into a restless whirlpool of change, where everything hurries on, flies, and is maintained in the balance by a continual advancing and moving, it is impossible to imagine happiness. It cannot dwell where, as Plato says, continual Becoming and never Being is all that takes place.Robinson: I believe and agree that happiness is based on disposition on the position, it's internally based not external. It's how you look up on things, not how things is working on for you. Happiness is a gift, you must accept to receive it. It's a state or feelings of pride ,joy, contentment, love and the like or a combination of one or all of this feeling. Lastly, I believe it varies on each person receiving or experiencing it, depending on how they express, explain or realize the feelings of bappiness within them.Barbara: The rich are not likely to be happier than the middle income group or even those with very low incomes. People with college education are somewhat happier titan those who didn't graduate from high school, and it is believed that this is mainly because they have more opportunity to control their lives. Yet people with a high income and a college education may be less happy than those with the same income and no college education.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　StatementsA.

填空题{{B}}Directions:{{/B}}{{I}} Read the texts from a magazine article in which five persons talked about their attitude to helping the people in developing countries. For question 61 to 65, match the name of each person (61 to 65) to one of the statements given below, which is the summary of his or her speech. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.{{/I}}{{B}}Judith Rodgers:{{/B}} I was shocked. Last week my lecturer advised me to change a more suitable course. He said that a career in law was unsuitable for women. At first I thought he was joking, it was a stupid thing to say. Women are as intelligent as men. There are some excellent women lawyers. If he doesn't like teaching me, he should change his job. I have a right to study law. I will certainly have my career as a lawyer in the future. I don't think any male prejudice can stop me.{{B}}Peter Mitchell:{{/B}} She's wasting her time studying law. When she gets married and has children she'll be too busy to work. I do believe that an intelligent woman can succeed in any career if she has enough strength to overcome male prejudice. But she has to decide first whether or not she wants to have children. It's impossible to have a successful career and to be a good mother at the same time. That's why all the professions are dominated by men. Women sometimes can't decide things properly, because they are too emotional.{{B}}Doris Newman:{{/B}} What's the role of women in society today? First, as toys for men to play with — naive and charming. Second, as unpaid servants of the despotic husband — hard working and obedient. Third, as factories for producing children. This is kept throughout society, from nursery to university, from sports to politics. Nowhere are women given the same status as men. Nowhere are they allowed to think. How can we fight this discrimination? First by refusing to be played with. Second by refusing to be enslaved by marriage. Third, by refusing to have children. Finally, we must use political force to get equality of opportunity in employment and education. Women must regain their self-respect.{{B}}Muriel Green:{{/B}} I really enjoy being a wife and a mother. I have two lovely little kids and I have a good husband who works hard to pay for everything we need. When he comes home after work he's tired and he has a right to expect the house to be clean and the dinner to be ready. I couldn't do his work and he certainly couldn't do mine. We are both happy with our work. My mother was a good mother and a good wife too. She taught me how to cook and how to sew. God creates men and women, who are different in many ways. Our place is at home. God makes women to be mothers and wives. Women's Liberation should stop interfering.{{B}}Martin Kent:{{/B}} Until I find a job that pays me more money than my wife's getting now, I will do all the housework. Some men might laugh at me, but I don't mind. I am quite happy with this arrangement. They say that housework is a woman's job. That's stupid. If a woman has a skill and get a good salary, why shouldn't she work? My wife is a beautician and she loves her work. I take care of our two kids, drive them to school, prepare dinner for the family and do all the household choirs. I get plenty time to play with my kids in the open, go fishing, hunting and boating. I think this is important for their growth. Of course I also get plenty time for my own hobbies, too. I see no points in keeping my wife at home while I can do most of the repairing that she can't. By doing so, we actually save quite a lot of money. I don't understand those who think that only women can do housework. Men always do their own housework when they are single. {{B}}Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements{{/B}}A. Women should be rid of the traditional roles that they were forced to play and fight for Women's Liberation.B. There are some advantages for the husband to stay at home.C. I am determined to become a lawyer.D. Women are not allowed to think about their own problems.E. Men always do their own housework when they are single.F. Women are born mothers and wives.G. A woman cannot be both successful as a professional and a good mother.

填空题Charleson Then I make a commitment to keep talking even when it might not be comfortable-in other words, to work at it. The will to talk is important to becom a better talker. I think one reason I"ve had a certain amount of success in broadcasting is that the audience can see that. I love what I"m doing. You can"t fake that. And if you try, you will fail. Rew Careful listening makes you a better talker. Good follow-up questions are the mark of a good conversationalist. I find this is always true. Actually, I have an important rule that I remind myself of every morning: nothing I say this day will teach me anything. So if I"m going to learn, I have to do it by listening. Sapir The best conversationalists are capable of talking about issues and experiences beyond their own daily lives. You can expand your world through travel, but you can also do it without leaving your own back yard. The point is:people with backgrounds different from your own can help you and your thinking. Tate Anybody I"ve ever talked to for more than a few minutes knows at least two things about me: I"m from Brooklyn, New York, and I"m Chinese. That"s because I"m deeply proud of both. You should be as open and honest with your conversational partners as you"d want them to be with you, willing to reveal what your background is and what your likes and dislikes are. Aza One of my cardinal rules of conversation is never to stay too serious too long. Similarly, a key quality I look for in a potential guest is a sense of humor, preferably self-deprecating. Frank Sinatra"s never been afraid to make fun of himself-I think the key to his story-and most appealing to the audience-is that he so obviously enjoys retelling this joke at his own expense. Now match each of the persons with the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements A. Be the genuine you. B. You don"t have to be quotable. C. Luck is the key. D. Attitudes counts. E. Keep it light. F. Remember to take turns. G. Broaden your horizons.

填空题Hadley: If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, and then you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be passive smokers without realizing it. Randy: Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It is almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it. Sampson: The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lungs early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements always depict handsome, clean-shaven young men. They suggest it is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great open air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness. What utter nonsense! Rowley: Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better off if smoking were banned altogether. Bernice: Smoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seems to get right. After a day's hard work, the thing I want to do most is smoking. It can be even better than a cup of coffee. It is so enjoyable and relaxing that it relieves stresses of every day life. So why bother to ban it and take the pleasure from us. Statements A．Smoking brings many psychological benefits. B．Tobacco is an important source of income to the government. C．Smoking is sure to cause diseases. D．It's a short sighted policy to depend on tobacco for money. E．The advertisement for it is dishonest and harmful. F．The tobacco industry makes high quality advertisement for smoking G．It's doubtful whether there is link between smokin~ and cancer.

填空题All Thumbs The thumb shaped the human hand. Without it, man might not have survived. Luckily, the hand developed only one thumb. Two thumbs on the hand would be like having two or more cooks in a small kitchen. There are days when this happens to all of us, days when everything we do seems to go wrong. We cannot even get the fight shoe on. The typist cannot hit the right key. The carpenter’s hammer misses the nail and hits his finger. Nothing can be done but throw upon one’s hands and moan, "God, I am all thumbs today." Achilles Heel This is the story-Homer tells in the Iliad. Achilles’ mother bathed him as a baby in the River Styx to make him immortal, deathless like a god. But she held him by the heel and it didn’t get wet. The heel, therefore, was the one spot where Achilles could be hurt, possibly killed. And so he was in the Trojan war. None of the weapons was able to hurt Achilles. The god Apollo, however, knew of Achilles’ weak spot and told Paris about it. Paris then shot an arrow at Achilles’ heel and killed him. Skin of my teeth The character of Job in the Bible will never be forgotten. People everywhere will remember him as a man who suffered every misfortune, but stood firm in his faith and belief in God. Everything, everybody turned against him. "I escaped," says Job, "by the skin of my teeth". This expression has puzzled many people because there is no skin on one’s teeth. However, that makes little difference. The phrase used by Job is a powerful one, describing how near he was to be totally destroyed. So, can you find another phrase whose meaning is close to this one? Stiff upper lip In the early days of the Second World War, the civilian population of England lived through terror and destruction. Nazi bombs rained down with little mercy; London burned from end to end. But the spirit of the people never broke. They were urged by theft leaders to "keep a still lip". And so they did, and won the respect and admiration of the entire world. After reading the passage, what do you think the phrase means? To pull a boner This phrase comes from the old American minstrel shows. There were two men in these shows who were called Mr. Bones, because they carded two small sticks of bone that they used as instruments. They were asked questions by one of the other men in the show just to get stupid but funny answers. This became known as "pull boners". But in time the expression meant something more than getting an answer to make you laugh. It meant something more serious. Can you guess what this phrase means? Now match each of the idioms with the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements A. weak point B. lightening missed me by a hair C. a man who can"t get anything fight D. something not existing E. to keep oneself under control in the face of disaster F. to do funny silly things G. a bad blunder, a mistake that is costly

填空题Erum Nadeem Your article on happiness lifted my spirits. There is one very interesting aspect to note: the eight steps to happiness listed on pages 32-33 may as well be translations of the values of our cultural tradition. If people would see our values from these aspects, there would be no misunderstanding—only happiness. Sander Tideman I applaud your special on the science of happiness. However, the issue would have been more complete had it mentioned the idea of viewing economic development policies in the context of "gross national happiness" or GNH. This concept is based on the recognition that gross national product does not accurately reflect the well-being of a nation. GNH is a bold idea with far-reaching effects. Since happiness has a scientific base, it can be developed and promoted on a larger social scale. Paul Aboh Happiness is a gift, not a commodity. Even the poor have the ability to cultivate and share happiness. We can find pleasure in the small things we often take for granted—a smile, a helping hand, a kiss, a wave, a pat on the back, a glass of water and a promise kept. And when you discover its source, you know it. Sometimes happiness overflows, but it never destroys. Mansoor Malik Happiness is not a product of achievement or wealth or fame. It is the reaction of our mind to the environment. Faith in the values of our long-cherished cultural tradition is a source of well-being. Happiness comes from caring for others and giving whatever we can—help, hope, love, respect, sympathy or just a smile. Peter Fischer At a time when there seem to be so many reasons for being unhappy, I appreciated your special report on happiness. Surely the poorest kids in Africa who are without parents and are often hungry are the ones with the most reasons to be unhappy. What can possibly make them smile? As your article pointed out, however, we cannot wait for enough friends or a lot of money to make us happy. We have an amazing capacity to set ourselves right. Now match the name of each person (61 to 65)to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements. Statements[A] A rich person is not necessarily happy.[B] Things people often overlook may be the very source of happiness.[C] Happiness can be promoted on a scientific basis.[D] We should mainly rely on ourselves for happiness.[E] Happiness lies in giving instead of taking. [F] The environment is a source of happiness. [G] Happiness can be achieved if we stick to the best of our values.

填空题 Article One: Eliminate as many sources of stress as you can. For example, if crowds bother you, go to the supermarket when you know the lines won't be too long. Try renting videotapes rather than going to crowded movie theaters. Clear up the clutter in your life by giving away or throwing away the things that get in your way. A garage sale is one effective way to do this. Article Two: If you are always running late, sit down with a pencil and paper and see how you are actually allot ting your time. Say it takes you 40 minutes to get to work. Are you leaving your house on time? You may be able to solve your problem(and de-stress your life a hit)just by being realistic. If you can't find the time for all the activities that are important to you, maybe you are trying to do too much. Again, make a list of what you do during the day and how much each activity takes. Then cut back. Article Three: If you feel stress(or anything else.is getting the better of you, seek professional help--a doctor or therapist. Early signs of excess stress are loss of a sense of well-being and reluctance to get up in the morning to face another day. Article Four: If you can't remove the stress, remove yourself. Slip away once in a while for some private time. These quiet moments may give you a fresh perspective on your problems. Avoid stressful people. For example, if you don't get along with your father-in-law but you don't want to make an issue of it, invite other in-laws at the same time you invite him. Having other people around will absorb some of the pressure you would normally feel. Article Five: Competing with others, whether in accomplishments, appearance, or possessions, is an avoidable source of stress. You might know people who do all they can to provoke envy in others. While it may seem easy to say you should be satisfied with what you have, it's the truth. Stress from this kind of jealousy is self-inflicted. Now match each of the articles to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.{{B}} Statements{{/B}} A. One thing at a time. B. Reserve time for solitude and avoid stressful people. C. Avoid self-inflicted stress. D. Manage your time according to your priorities and available time. E. Avoid stressful circumstances. F. Learn to idle time away. G. Seek professional help when early signs of stress arise.

填空题 Jennifer The greenhouse effect might be causing the change, but it's a cycle that's been tracked for about a hundred years and in the past 20 years or so it just stopped cycling. And this is only affecting a small part of the world, People talk about greenhouse effect because they want to show how much concern they have about the future of the world. Don't be as silly as them. Carl: Spring just hits here, too. It's so nice--windows open, the fresh air of changing seasons just lights me up. When I was younger this was the season for walking through the melting snow and ice, across roadsides, through square acre forests among the fields. I get so excited to be out in the wild. It's tough to be in the city this time of year. Maybe I'll go camping soon! Susan: In the city you don't have seasons. Spring rain does not make man-made structure grow, and wet roads are not inconvenient for you because you can move around hi your car. Summer's heat is no longer a problem and air-conditioning makes your rooms cool as autumn. The colors of the city don't change because nature is not powerful enough to change them as she changes the color of woods. Winter snow leaves nothing white but muddy roads. Harold: Snow in Georgia is a funny thing. We have been having 24 hours/day weather news on the TV for the past week, just because there is a threat of snow. Schools have closed based on these predictions, and all we got was rain. But the rule is that if it sticks to the ground, school is canceled. It would be a great excuse to get the day off. People rush to the grocery store to buy milk and bread -- I don't know why, but they do. When I was growing up here we used to get 1 or 2 big snowfalls a year, but there has not been any for the last few. Damn global warming. Mike: It's been so nice. I am of the firm belief that in February we get the day like cool autumn season in November... In February it's like a warm period that's been getting stronger and longer every year since my boyhood, and it gets defeated by the final blowing snowstorm of March at least once, but anyone can survive those snowstorms, since we all know they'll be gone in a few days. Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.Statements[A] Future is bright.[B] In the city we can hardly touch nature.[C] We can see the greenhouse effect on the climate.[D] Human beings have to struggle hard against weather.[E] The call of nature is there.[F] He hates spring.[G] Sometimes we worry too much about nothing.

填空题Paragraph 1 A teacher or lecturer recommends a student to read the book which may contain useful information about the topic being studied or it may be invaluable for the ideas or views that puts forward, and so on. In many cases, the teacher doesn't suggest that the whole book should be read. In fact, he may just refer to a few pages which have a direct bearing on the matter being discussed.Paragraph 2 Learners of English usually find that writing is the hardest and the most energy-consuming task. The majority of native speakers of English have to make an effort to write accurately and effectively even on those subjects which they know very well. The non-native learner, then, is trying to do something that the average native speaker often finds difficult himself.Paragraph 3 Students, however, often work out a sentence in their own language and then try to translate it in this way. The result is that very often the reader simply cannot understand what the student has written. The individual words, or odd phrases, may make sense but the sentence as a whole makes nonsense. The student should always try to use sentence patterns which be knows are correct English.Paragraph 4 Many students seem to think that brevity is suspect. It is, on the contrary, a quality which is much admired in English. Most readers understand that a difficult subject can only be written up simple if the writer understands it very well. A student should, therefore, organize all his points very carefully before he starts to write. Paragraph 5 Non-native speakers of English, like their native counterparts, usually find that the opportunity to participate in group discussions is one of the most valuable aspects in their whole academic program. But in order to obtain full value from this type of activity the student must be proficient in asking questions, If he isn't, then any attempt to resolve his difficulties may lead to further confusion, if not considerable embarrassment. Now match each of the paragraphs (61 to 65 ) to the appropriate topic. Note: there are two extra topics.Statements A. Why does a student come to the library. B. Taking part in group discussions. C. How to write a correct sentence. D. Reading for a particular purpose. E. You may write one sentence ff you understand it. F. Simplicity-a quality much admired. G. Writing is the most difficult skill.
