单选题A pension is the money that a worker or his or her family receives after a worker retires, is unable to work or dies. People have pension plans from working in private industry, in the armed forces or in the government. People can also establish their own pension plans. Many of those who create their own plans work for themselves or for a company that does not provide a pension plan. Reports say most American workers have some kind of pension plans. Most pensions of people who worked for the government are paid for with money that came jointly from workers and their agencies. Most private pension plans are paid for by the employer. A federal (联邦的) government programme called Social Security provides money to most American workers after they retire. Social Security is the largest retirement programme in the United States. Workers pay into the programme percentage of what they earn each month. Their employers do the same. Most self-employed people also pay into Social Security. These people then will receive money each month after they retire for as long as they live. People can also establish individual pension plans through banks or insurance companies. They put in so much money each month, then receive payments after they reach about sixty-five years of age.

单选题Miss Liu, I am writing to inform you that I wish to move into a new room next term. The reason for my dissatisfaction with my roommate is his inconsiderate behavior. His friends constantly visit him and he regularly holds noisy parties. In addition, he sometimes uses my things without asking me. Under these circumstances, I find it difficult to concentrate on my studies. I would be grateful if you could find another room for me.

单选题There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied. Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, and native-speaking students. To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test. Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning's results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.

C. , 1600 PennsyLienia Anenica is a very special address. It is the address of the White House, the home of the president of the United States. Originally the White House was gray and was called the Presidential Palace. It was built from 1792 to 1800. At this time, the city of Washington itself was being built. It was to be the nation's new capital city. George Washington, the first president, and Pierre Charlse L'Enfant, a French engineer, chose the place for the new city. L'Enfant then planned the city. The president's home was an important part of the plan. A contest was held to pick a design for the president's home. An architect named James Hogar won. He designed a large three-story house of gray stone. President Washington never lived in the Presidential Palace. The first president to live there was John Adames, the second president of the United States, and his wife Mrs. Adames did not really like her new house. In her letters, she often complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm! In 1812 the United States and Britain went to war. In 1814 the British invaded Washington. They burned many buildings, including the Presidential Palace. After the war James Hogar, the original architect, partially rebuilt the president's home. To cover the marks of the fire, the building was painted white. Before long, it be came known as the White House. The White House is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States. Every year more than 1.5 million visitors go through the five rooms that are open to the public.
