单选题. Danny was just tired about the way things were going. His morn came to the school and went on and on talking about Rick Jackson. It seemed that she would never stop talking. "Somebody's got to stop that boy!" she was shouting, "Rick's troubling everybody in the neighborhood. And, he loves to pick on little boys like Danny." Mrs. Green, Danny's teacher, was concerned a lot. "I didn't know that Danny was being picked on," she answered. "He's never said anything about this to me!" Mrs. Green looked at Danny. "How long has this been going on?" She asked. Danny could only shake his head and look at the floor. He knew if he said a word about this, he would have trouble after school. Danny hadn't said anything about the problem because he wanted to play with the boys in the neighborhood. After all, most of them were nice to him. He hated to leave the gang just because of Rick. Maybe the time had come to find new friends. He felt it hard to make up his mind.1. What we can learn from the passenge is that ______.

单选题. In order to work here the foreigner needs a work permit, which must be applied 1 by his prospective employer. The problem here is that the Department of the Employment has the right to 2 or refuse these permits, and there is little that can be 3 about it. It would be extremely unwise 4 a foreign visitor to work without a permit, since anyone doing so is 5 to immediate deportation. There are some 6 to this rule, most notably people from the Common Market countries, who are 7 to work without permits, and who are often given 8 residence permits of up to five years. Some 9 people, such as doctors, foreign journalists, 10 and others, can work without permits. The problem with the Act is not just that some of its rules are unfair but 11 it is administered, and the people who administer it. An immigration official has the power to stop a visitor 12 these shores coming into the country. If this happens the visitor has the 13 to appeal 14 the Immigration Appeal Tribunal. While the appeals are being considered, the visitor has no 15 but to wait sometimes for quite a long time. Critics of the law say that immigration officials treat the 16 visitors badly, and appear to accept or 17 them for no 18 reason. Which side of the political 19 you are on, there seems to be an urgent need for a good look at the Act, for it causes frequent argument, and in the eyes of many real 20 .1.

单选题. There isn't any question about Washington's greatness. If his administration had been a failure, there would have been no United States. He had all the background that caused him to know how to make it work, because he had worked under the Continental Congress. Some Presidents have limited their roles to being administrators of the laws without being leaders. But Washington was both a great administrator and a great leader. I guess in fact, that the only anti-Washington thing I can say is that he made a mistake when he established the precedent of the two-term President and even there he had a good personal reason for wanting that, at least for himself. He was attacked viciously by the press of his day; he was called so many terrible things that he told friends even during his first term that he wasn't going to run again. But Thomas Jefferson and James Madison and Alexander Hamilton persuaded him to go ahead and serve a second term and finally he did. After he'd gotten through his second term, though, he made up his mind that he just wouldn't take it any more, and he quit.1. Basically the author's opinion of Washington is ______.

单选题. The world is undergoing a great transition marked by uncertainty and complexity which we do not yet understand. This poses (提出) a challenge to young people all over the world, for in about 15 years' time youth will play a fundamental role as never before in the history of the world. Young people will make up over half the population in developing countries—the so-called countries of the South. In the North they wm have the heavy responsibility of providing for societies in which elderly people will generally be in the majority. It is probably not by chance that young people in different parts of the world today represent a movement of challenge and pressure which is shaking government and attempting to impose new values in a universe which they perceive as inhospitable (冷淡的) or even hostile. We have come a long way from the early 20th century concept of perpetual 3% annual growth, which fitted so well with the Newtonian vision of the world-a vision resting on the idea of a perfect giant clockwork mechanism. The dramatic nature of today's crisis is based on our difficulty in understanding—on a lack of intelligibility (可理解性). For in evolution's constant march towards complexity we have just crossed a threshold. Beyond this threshold, everything is different; everything invites us to look anew (重新). But we are prisoners of images which still inhabit our minds because they brought us so much intellectual comfort in understanding our world as it used to be. Prigonine takes us over the threshold and forces us to enter into the new dialogue which is necessary. It is useful to try to transfer this new vision into the spheres of management, business, national sovereignty, and international organization. In this way we may perhaps make progress in governing that which, on first analysis we may judge to be ungovernable.1. The characteristic of the present age of the world is ______.

单选题. Many people believe that Americans love their cars almost more than anything else. They are 1 about cars. Not only is the car the 2 means of transportation in the States, it has 3 become a "plaything". 4 the time youngsters become fourteen years old or even 5 , they're likely to start 6 of having their own cars. In the USA, the 7 family, if the father is not 8 work, can afford to buy a new car every five years. However, many young people 9 after school in order to save money to buy a car.

单选题. A subject which seems to have been insufficiently studied by doctors and psychologists is the influence of geography and climate on the psychological and physical health of mankind. There seems no doubt that the general character of the landscape, the relative length of day and night, and the climate must all play a big part in determining what kind of people we are. It is true that a few studies have been made. Where all the inhabitants of particular area enjoy exceptionally good or bad health, scientists have identified contributory factors such as the presence or absence of substances like iodine, fluoride, calcium, or iron in the water supply, or perhaps types of land that provide breeding places for pests like mosquitoes or rats. Moreover, we can all generalize about types of people we have met. Those living in countries with long dark winters are apt to be less talkative and less vivacious (活泼的) than inhabitants of countries where the climate is more equable (稳定). And where the olive and the orange grow, there the inhabitants are cheerful, talkative, and spontaneous. But these commonplace generalizations are inadequate: the influence of climate and geography should be studied in depth. Do all mountain dwellers live to a ripe old age? Does the drinking of wine, rather than beer, result in a sunny and open temperament? Is the strength and height of one of the Kenyan tribes due to their habitual drinking of the blood of cows? We are not yet sure of the answers to such questions, but let us hope that something of benefit to mankind may eventually result from such studies.1. ______ might serve as a suitable title for this selection.

单选题 While a new school term is about to begin

单选题. All the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was what the notice just in side the entrance promised, it said: "Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!" For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say, "Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free." One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. "Madam," he said, holding out his hand, "I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!"1. The housewives learnt about the offer of free goods ______.
