     Robert and Peter study in the same university. They do everything together and help each other. But they
often play jokes on each other. The school year was over last month and they decided to travel through the
country in America. They drove a car and could stop wherever they were interested in and started whenever

thirsty. They stopped in front of a restaurant by the road. They came in, sat down at a table and ordered some
dishes. Robert looked around and found there was a small bowl on the table. He thought there was some ice
cream in it and took a spoonful of it and put it into his mouth. Immediately he knew it was mustard (芥末), but
it was too late. Tears ran down his face, but he pretended nothing had happened. The other young man, seeing

三節(jié)．閱讀理解（40%）
閱讀理解下面的短文，然后按要求答題。
I was born in New York, but I grew up in San Francisco. I began to live in London 25 years ago. If I am asked now where I want to live forever, I would say London. But I will always be American.
San Francisco, like London, has many parks. Every day my sisters and I were taken to play in the parks as children. I didn't go to school. I only had three hours of formal education when I was five. I was sent to school in the morning but came home at noon on the first day. I said I didn't enjoy it and hadn't learned anything. My parents thought that school was unsuitable for me. They agreed with me, so I never went back to school.
Then my mother taught me and my two sisters at home, in the way of an English lady who had good education. We learned languages and reading more than sciences and maths. Sometimes she taught us herself, but we also had other teachers. They asked us to take lessons every day. About once a week we walked to Golden Gate Park. While we were walking, my mother taught me to read music. One day I noticed a little toy train in the window of a shop and I remember now how I'd like to have it. I couldn't say "r" when I was small. My mother said if I could say an "r" well, I would have the toy train. I practiced and practiced. Then one morning I woke everybody up with my "r"s. I got the toy train. I usually get the things I want in life — but I work hard for them.

第三部分：閱讀理解（共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分）
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)（A、B、C、D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。
A
Prisoner Mitchell King had a visitor— his wife. King was serving a six-year prison term in Auckland, New Zealand for armed robbery. But his wife didn’t want to be away from him for that long. So they held hands and they stuck. She’s rubbed her palms with super glue.
Their new-found closeness was short-lived. And their separation painful. Her technique is not one I'd recommend(introduce) for a closer relationship.
But if you want more closeness; if you desire relationships that are deeper and broader, more meaningful and longer-lasting, then remember the word "TRAVEL."
T is for TRUST. Trust is the glue that holds people together (not Super Glue). A relationship will go nowhere without it.
R is for RESPECT. "Do not save your loving speeches for your friends till they are dead; speak them rather now instead," writes Anna Cummins. It's about respecting others and letting them know that you value them.
A is for AFFECTION. Sometimes affection means love. Sometimes it means a touch. Always it means kindness.
V is for VULNERABILITY(harm). Though we may feel afraid to let another too close, no relationship will go anywhere without risking vulnerability. Entrepreneur Jim Rohn says, "The walls we build around us to keep out the sadness also keep out the joy." And the love.
E is for EMOTIONAL INTIMACY(親密). Learn to be open. Learn to communicate freely. What kinds of relationships you make are largely determined by how openly you have learned to communicate.
L is for LAUGHTER. Victor Borge got it right when he said, "Laughter is the shortest distance between two people." It's also the most enjoyable.
For relationships that can really go somewhere, just remember the word "TRAVEL." Then enjoy the trip!
56．The author intends to _________ by showing us the example in Paragraph One.
A. condemn the wife for her silly behavior
B. introduce new ways for closer relationships
C. tell us King and his wife would never be separated
D. encourage us to follow the wife’s technique
57．The underlined word “it” in Paragraph Four refers to?
A. Trust.                      B. Glue.                       C. Closeness.                D. TRAVEL
58．Which of the following agrees with what Jim Rohn says?
A. Walls should be built to keep out the sadness.
B. It’s unnecessary to avoid vulnerability for closer relationships.
C. Love will be kept out if you let another too close.
D. We shouldn’t let another too close because of vulnerability.
59．What does Victor Borge really mean by his word in the ninth paragraph?
A. Laughter will keep the shortest distance.
B. Laughter will make a closer relationship.
C. No relationship will go without laughter.
D. Laughter is necessary to make friends.

A
Shopping in the United States changes a lot．About ninety years ago most people shopped in small stores that were owned by one person or a family．Women went from the bakery to the butcher's to the grocer and on to the fruit and vegetable seller in order to get their food for the week．
Then about sixty years ago, supermarkets were born．In a supermarket, people could get all the different kinds of food they needed without going to different stores．
The next big change in shopping in the United States was the shopping mall．A shopping mall is a group of stores under one roof．Because malls allowed people to shop without worrying about the weather, they soon became very popular．The mall became a place for people to socialize in addition to shopping．If you walk through a mall, you will see older people sitting, chatting and drinking coffee．Malls are places for teenagers to hang out．Many teens will often just "go to the mall" and spend time with their friends．
The recent change in American shopping was the superstore．Large chain stores such as Wal-Mart, Office Depot and Toys "R" Us have been built all across the United States．Because they are so large, they can buy goods at a great discount and sell them much cheaper than smaller stores．
Sometimes, when they are built near small towns, many of the small town stores have to close．They just cannot compete with their giant neighbors．
And now, online shopping is becoming more and more popular all over the States．People are too busy to go to the physical stores, so they go shopping over the Internet．Online shopping has lots of advantages．For instance, online stores are usually available 24 hours a day．Searching or browsing online shops can be faster than browsing the physical stores．While, online shopping also has its disadvantages．People are at higher risk of being cheated on the part of the merchant than in a physical store．And privacy of personal information may be let out．
56．Which of the following shows the right order of shopping development in the United States?
①small stores  ②superstores   ③shopping malls    ④shopping online
⑤supermarkets
A．①②③④⑤             B．①⑤②③④
C．①⑤③②④          D．②③④①⑤
57．Which is the place for people to spend time with others according to the passage?
A．Shopping malls．           B．Small stores．      
C．Supermarkets．          D．Superstores．
58．Why can the superstores sell products at much lower prices?
A．Because they are built near small towns．
B．Because they are across the United States．
C．Because they sell all kinds of products people need．
D．Because they can buy goods at a reduction in the price．
59．What's the disadvantage of online shopping according to the passage?
A．Wasting time．         B．Leaking personal information．
C．Fixed prices．        D．No chance to do physical activities

第三部分閱讀理解(共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分)

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

A

This week in our Foreign Student Series，we talk about getting an American education online．A student named Hendra has written to us from Indonesia asking about a good online university．Finding the right online program requires research．Talking to advisers and recruiters（招募者）can help．Keep in mind，though，that they might have a financial interest to direct you to certain programs．

The Council on Higher Education Accreditation（CHEA）recognizes a group in Washington，D．C．，to accredit（授權(quán)）schools that offer distance learning．One hundred and ten programs in the United States and six other countries are accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council．

We asked the executive director，Michael Lambert，for advice on choosing a distance learning program．He says the first thing is to go on the CHEA Web site to find if a school is accredited．The address is c-h-e-a dot o-r-g．Next，make sure the school offers what you need．Do you need a degree，or will a certificate or license be enough?

Another consideration is cost．Often the published price does not include all the costs --like books．Technology requirements can also add to the costs．Will you need to get new software or a high-speed Internet connection or even a new computer to take the classes you want?

Also，consider the level of interaction that an online program offers．You might never meet the teacher or other students in person．

Finally，and this is our own advice，find out what others say on the Internet for comments or news stories about schools that interest you．Just remember that what people say is not always fair or true．

56．This passage is probably from ________．

A．a(chǎn) magazine          B．a(chǎn) newspaper    

C．a(chǎn) text book       D．a(chǎn) radio program

57．This passage is mainly about ________．

A．how to get an American education online

B．what to learn in an American university

C．the introductions to schools offering distance learning

D．the advantages of online education

58．What else should be taken into consideration about cost besides the published price?

A．The cost for books and technology requirements．

B．The cost for books and a new computer．

C．The cost for new software and a high-speed Internet connection．

D．The cost for technology requirements and even a classroom．

59．How can you find the information about schools accredited to offer distance learning easily?

A．Ask the members of CHEA．        B．Go on the website of chea.org．

C．Ask Michael Lambert for help．      D．Talk to advisers and recruiters．

60 According to Michael Lambert，________．

A．to get a certificate or a license is much easier than to get a degree

B．it’s not fair for the schools to charge extra money beside the published price

C．the level of interaction that an online program offers is quite considerable

D．people’s comments about schools are always unbelievable
