In the days of Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, life on a steamboat on
the Mississippi River was 41
. One of the most exciting 42
of that period was a race
43
two of the fastest river boats.
The Natchez had steamed up the river from New Orleans to St. Louis in three days,
twenty-one hours, and fifty-eight minutes. John Cannon, 44
of the Robert E. Lee felt
sure that he could 45
this time and challenged the captain of the Natchez.
46
his boat light, Captain Cannon 47
no passengers 48
; he did not 49
the
usual goods. Moreover, he had crews with supplies of coal waiting on floats along the river
so that the boat would not have to put it to shore for 50
.
The race began on June 30, 1870. Being lighter than the Natchez, the Lee jumped
into an early lead. For three days the race continued, 51
the boats travelling at full
steam. They were 52
each other the whole time, 53
short spaces when bends in the
river hid one or the other from view.
Then only a few hours from its goal, the Natchez 54
a rock and ran aground (擱淺) .
The Lee steamed proudly into St. Louis in exactly three days, eighteen hours, and thirty
minutes after she had left New Orleans. Bell rang, and people called 55
the boat
named after the general 56
as an army engineer had prevented the river from changing
its course and St. Louis 57
becoming an inland town.
The Lee 58
a good record---one that brought honor to all rivermen. However, the
great day of the river steamers was drawing to 59
. The 60
won the passenger and
goods business from the river boats.
There are boats on the river today. But they are not the white birds that attracted
young Samuel Clemens.

A new period is coming. Call it what you will: the service industry, the information age,
the knowledge society. It all translates to a great change in the way we work. Already we’re
partly there, the percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen
sharply in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan
(two thirds or more are in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the
number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more
part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breath of the great change can’t be
measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to new way of thinking about the
nature of work itself. Long-held opinions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to
succeed, even the relation between workers and employers—all these are being doubted.
We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one
looking ahead 20 years possibly could have seen the ways in which a single invention, the
chip(芯片), would change our world thanks to its uses in personal computers, and factory
equipment. Tomorrow’s achievements in biotechnology or even some still unimagined
technology could produce a similar wave of great changes. But one thing is certain:
information and knowledge will become even more important, and the people who own it,
whether they work in factories or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth.
Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write.
The ability to deal with problems by making use of information instead of performing
regular tasks will be valued above all else. If you look ahead 10 years, information service
will be leading the way. It will be the way you do your job.
65. Information age means _____________.
A. the service industry is depending more and more on women workers
B. heavy industries are rapidly increasing
C. people find it harder and harder to earn a living by working in factories
D. most of the job chances can now be found in the service industry.
66. Knowledge society brings about a great change that __________
A. the difference between the workers and employers has become smaller
B. people’s old ideas about work no longer exist
C. most people have to take part-time jobs
D. people have to change their jobs from time to time
67. The future will probably belong to those who _________.
A. own and know how to make use of information
B. can read and write well
C. devote themselves to service industries
D. look ahead instead of looking back
(C)
Among various programmes, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on
daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is
different in style(風(fēng)格). But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same
time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows.
Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of “rubbish talk”. The contents on his
show are as surprising as can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk
show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer
show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other
people's lives.
Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top, but Oprah goes in the
opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different
quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week,
to getting to know your neighbors.
Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured
into society. Jerry ends every show with a “final word”. He makes a small speech about the
entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something
very valuable.
Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main viewers are
middleclass Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with
life's tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with
the young adults of society. These are 18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life
include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value
and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.
68. Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey
are_____.
A. more interesting B. unusually popular C. more detailed D. more formal
69. Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who
watch the shows_____.
A. remain interested in them B. are ready to face up to them
C. remain cold to them D. are willing to get away from them
70. Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?
A. A new type of robot. B. Nation hatred.
C. Family income planning. D. Street accident.
71. We can learn from the passage that the two talk shows_______.
A. have become the only ones of its kind B. exploit the weaknesses in human
nature
C. appear at different times of the day D. attract different people
(D)
Advertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for
criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and
because they have so much money to throw around. “It’s iniquitous,” they say, “that this
entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each
year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they
stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who
pays…”
The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create
mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer
goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising
is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the
knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we
read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones
we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than
likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc. , from an advertisement.
Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be
seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what
fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like
without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws
while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in
your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or
a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.
We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets.
Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this
source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many
broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a
newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!
Another thing we mustn’t forget is the “small ads.” which are in virtually every
newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the
community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance,
you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to
be called the ‘hatch, match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is
the personal or “agony” column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining
reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for
advertising there is!
72. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Advertisement.
B. The benefits of advertisement.
C. Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.
D. The costs of advertisement.
73. The attitude of the author toward advertisers is_______.
A. appreciative B. trustworthy C. critical D. dissatisfactory
74. Why do the critics criticize advertisers?
A. Because advertisers often brag.
B. Because critics think advertisement is a “waste of money”.
C. Because customers are encouraged to buy more than necessary.
D. Because customers pay more.
75. Which of the following is NOTtrue?
A. Advertisement makes contribution to our pockets and we may know everything.
B. We can buy what we want.
C. Good quality products don’t need to be advertised.
D. Advertisement makes our life colorful.
76. The passage is_______.
A. Narration B. Description C. Criticism D. Argumentation

Police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5,000 passively resisting protestors
Friday in an attempt to break up the largest antinuclear demonstration ever staged in the
United States. More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site
of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern
New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing
despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on
state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was
unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no
acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go
on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would
collapse.
Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the
power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. “This
project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on
schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be
dealt with according to the law,” he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over
the state to handle the disturbances.
The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke
through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that
read “No Nukes is Good Nukes,” “Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power,” and “Stop Private Profits
from Public Peril.” They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired
by police failed to dislodge the protestors who had come prepared with their own gas
masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to
drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to
walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful
assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.
77. What were the demonstrators protesting about?
A. Private profits. B. Nuclear Power Station.
C. The project of nuclear power construction. D. Public peril.
78. Who had gas-masks?
A. Everybody. B. A part of the protestors. C. Policemen. D. Both B
and C.
79. Which of the following was NOT mentioned as a reason for the demonstration?
A. Public transportation. B. Public peril.
C. Pollution. D. Disposal of wastes.
80. With whom were the jails and courts overloaded?
A. With prisoners. B. With arrested demonstrators.
C. With criminals. D. With protestors.
81. What is the attitude of Governor Stanforth Thumper toward the power project and the
demonstration?
A. Stubborn. B. Insistent. C. Insolvable. D.
Remissible.

testing a person’s knowledge and ability remain as primitive as ever they were. It really is
extraordinary that after all these years, educationists have still failed to device anything
more efficient and reliable than examinations. For all the pious claim that examinations test
what you know, it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They
may be a good means of testing memory, or the knack of working rapidly under extreme
pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person’s true ability and aptitude.
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. It doesn’t matter that you weren’t feeling very well, or
that your mother died. Little things like that don’t count: the exam goes on. No one can give
off his best when he is in mortal terror, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what
the examination system expects him to do. The moment a child begins school, he enters a
world of vicious competition where success and failure are clearly defined and measured.
Can we wonder at the increasing number of ‘drop-outs’: young people who are written off
as utter failures before they have even embarked on a career? Can we be surprised at the
suicide rate among students?
A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The
examination system does anything but that. What has to be learnt is rigidly laid down by a
syllabus, so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a
student to read widely, but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to seek more and
more knowledge, but induce cramming. They lower the standards of teaching, for they
deprive the teacher of all freedoms. Teachers themselves are often judged by examination
results and instead of teaching their subjects, they are reduced to training their students in
exam techniques which they despise. The most successful candidates are not always the
best educated; they are the best trained in the technique of working under duress.
The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective
assessment by some anonymous examiner. Examiners are only human. They get tired and
hungry; they make mistakes. Yet they have to mark stacks of hastily scrawled scripts in a
limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates. And
their word carries weight. After a judge’s decision you have the right of appeal, but not after
an examiner’s. There must surely be many simpler and more effective ways of assessing a
person’s true abilities. Is it cynical to suggest that examinations are merely a profitable
business for the institutions that run them? This is what it boils down to in the last analysis.
The best comment on the system is this illiterate message recently scrawled on a wall: ‘I
were a teenage drop-out and now I are a teenage millionaire. ’

In the days of Samuel Clemens, better known as Mark Twain, life on a steamboat on
the Mississippi River was 41
. One of the most exciting 42
of that period was a race
43
two of the fastest river boats.
The Natchez had steamed up the river from New Orleans to St. Louis in three days,
twenty-one hours, and fifty-eight minutes. John Cannon, 44
of the Robert E. Lee felt
sure that he could 45
this time and challenged the captain of the Natchez.
46
his boat light, Captain Cannon 47
no passengers 48
; he did not 49
the
usual goods. Moreover, he had crews with supplies of coal waiting on floats along the river
so that the boat would not have to put it to shore for 50
.
The race began on June 30, 1870. Being lighter than the Natchez, the Lee jumped
into an early lead. For three days the race continued, 51
the boats travelling at full
steam. They were 52
each other the whole time, 53
short spaces when bends in the
river hid one or the other from view.
Then only a few hours from its goal, the Natchez 54
a rock and ran aground (擱淺) .
The Lee steamed proudly into St. Louis in exactly three days, eighteen hours, and thirty
minutes after she had left New Orleans. Bell rang, and people called 55
the boat
named after the general 56
as an army engineer had prevented the river from changing
its course and St. Louis 57
becoming an inland town.
The Lee 58
a good record---one that brought honor to all rivermen. However, the
great day of the river steamers was drawing to 59
. The 60
won the passenger and
goods business from the river boats.
There are boats on the river today. But they are not the white birds that attracted
young Samuel Clemens.

A new period is coming. Call it what you will: the service industry, the information age,
the knowledge society. It all translates to a great change in the way we work. Already we’re
partly there, the percentage of people who earn their living by making things has fallen
sharply in the Western World. Today the majority of jobs in America, Europe and Japan
(two thirds or more are in many of these countries) are in the service industry, and the
number is on the rise. More women are in the work force than ever before. There are more
part-time jobs. More people are self-employed. But the breath of the great change can’t be
measured by numbers alone, because it also is giving rise to new way of thinking about the
nature of work itself. Long-held opinions about jobs and careers, the skills needed to
succeed, even the relation between workers and employers—all these are being doubted.
We have only to look behind us to get some sense of what may lie ahead. No one
looking ahead 20 years possibly could have seen the ways in which a single invention, the
chip(芯片), would change our world thanks to its uses in personal computers, and factory
equipment. Tomorrow’s achievements in biotechnology or even some still unimagined
technology could produce a similar wave of great changes. But one thing is certain:
information and knowledge will become even more important, and the people who own it,
whether they work in factories or services, will have the advantage and produce the wealth.
Computer knowledge will become as basic a requirement as the ability to read and write.
The ability to deal with problems by making use of information instead of performing
regular tasks will be valued above all else. If you look ahead 10 years, information service
will be leading the way. It will be the way you do your job.
65. Information age means _____________.
A. the service industry is depending more and more on women workers
B. heavy industries are rapidly increasing
C. people find it harder and harder to earn a living by working in factories
D. most of the job chances can now be found in the service industry.
66. Knowledge society brings about a great change that __________
A. the difference between the workers and employers has become smaller
B. people’s old ideas about work no longer exist
C. most people have to take part-time jobs
D. people have to change their jobs from time to time
67. The future will probably belong to those who _________.
A. own and know how to make use of information
B. can read and write well
C. devote themselves to service industries
D. look ahead instead of looking back
(C)
Among various programmes, TV talk shows have covered every inch of space on
daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one is
different in style(風(fēng)格). But no two shows are more opposite in content, while at the same
time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows.
Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of “rubbish talk”. The contents on his
show are as surprising as can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk
show titles of love, sex, cheating, and hate, to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer
show is about the dark side of society, yet people are willing to eat up the troubles of other
people's lives.
Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its top, but Oprah goes in the
opposite direction. The show is mainly about the improvement of society and different
quality of life. Contents are from teaching your children lessons, managing your work week,
to getting to know your neighbors.
Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being poured
into society. Jerry ends every show with a “final word”. He makes a small speech about the
entire idea of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something
very valuable.
Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show's main viewers are
middleclass Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and ability to deal with
life's tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of a connection with
the young adults of society. These are 18-to-21-year-olds whose main troubles in life
include love, relationship, sex, money and drug. They are the ones who see some value
and lessons to be learned through the show's exploitation.
68. Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey
are_____.
A. more interesting B. unusually popular C. more detailed D. more formal
69. Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear unpleasant, people who
watch the shows_____.
A. remain interested in them B. are ready to face up to them
C. remain cold to them D. are willing to get away from them

Advertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for
criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and
because they have so much money to throw around. “It’s iniquitous,” they say, “that this
entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each
year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they
stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who
pays…”
The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create
mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer
goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising
is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the
knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we
read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones
we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than
likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc. , from an advertisement.
Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be
seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what
fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like
without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws
while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in
your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or
a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.
We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets.
Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this
source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many
broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a
newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!
Another thing we mustn’t forget is the “small ads.” which are in virtually every
newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously useful service they perform for the
community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance,
you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to
be called the ‘hatch, match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is
the personal or “agony” column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining
reading or offers such a deep insight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for
advertising there is!

Police fired tear gas and arrested more than 5,000 passively resisting protestors
Friday in an attempt to break up the largest antinuclear demonstration ever staged in the
United States. More than 135,000 demonstrators confronted police on the construction site
of a 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant scheduled to provide power to most of southern
New Hampshire. Organizers of the huge demonstration said, the protest was continuing
despite the police actions. More demonstrators were arriving to keep up the pressure on
state authorities to cancel the project. The demonstrator had charged that the project was
unsafe in the densely populated area, would create thermal pollution in the bay, and had no
acceptable means for disposing of its radioactive wasters. The demonstrations would go
on until the jails and the courts were so overloaded that the state judicial system would
collapse.
Governor Stanforth Thumper insisted that there would be no reconsideration of the
power project and no delay in its construction set for completion in three years. “This
project will begin on time and the people of this state will begin to receive its benefits on
schedule. Those who break the law in misguided attempts to sabotage the project will be
dealt with according to the law,” he said. And police called in reinforcements from all over
the state to handle the disturbances.
The protests began before dawn Friday when several thousand demonstrators broke
through police lines around the cordoned-off construction site. They carried placards that
read “No Nukes is Good Nukes,” “Sunpower, Not Nuclear Power,” and “Stop Private Profits
from Public Peril.” They defied police order to move from the area. Tear gas canisters fired
by police failed to dislodge the protestors who had come prepared with their own gas
masks or facecloths. Finally gas-masked and helmeted police charged into the crowd to
drag off the demonstrators one by one. The protestors did not resist police, but refused to
walk away under their own power. Those arrested would be charged with unlawful
assembly, trespassing, and disturbing the peace.
77. What were the demonstrators protesting about?
A. Private profits. B. Nuclear Power Station.
C. The project of nuclear power construction. D. Public peril.
78. Who had gas-masks?
A. Everybody. B. A part of the protestors. C. Policemen. D. Both B
and C.
79. Which of the following was NOT mentioned as a reason for the demonstration?
A. Public transportation. B. Public peril.
C. Pollution. D. Disposal of wastes.
80. With whom were the jails and courts overloaded?
A. With prisoners. B. With arrested demonstrators.
C. With criminals. D. With protestors.
81. What is the attitude of Governor Stanforth Thumper toward the power project and the
demonstration?
A. Stubborn. B. Insistent. C. Insolvable. D.
Remissible.

We might marvel at the progress made in every field of study, but the methods of
testing a person’s knowledge and ability remain as primitive as ever they were. It really is
extraordinary that after all these years, educationists have still failed to device anything
more efficient and reliable than examinations. For all the pious claim that examinations test
what you know, it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They
may be a good means of testing memory, or the knack of working rapidly under extreme
pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person’s true ability and aptitude.
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. It doesn’t matter that you weren’t feeling very well, or
that your mother died. Little things like that don’t count: the exam goes on. No one can give
off his best when he is in mortal terror, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what
the examination system expects him to do. The moment a child begins school, he enters a
world of vicious competition where success and failure are clearly defined and measured.
Can we wonder at the increasing number of ‘drop-outs’: young people who are written off
as utter failures before they have even embarked on a career? Can we be surprised at the
suicide rate among students?
A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The
examination system does anything but that. What has to be learnt is rigidly laid down by a
syllabus, so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a
student to read widely, but to restrict his reading; they do not enable him to seek more and
more knowledge, but induce cramming. They lower the standards of teaching, for they
deprive the teacher of all freedoms. Teachers themselves are often judged by examination
results and instead of teaching their subjects, they are reduced to training their students in
exam techniques which they despise. The most successful candidates are not always the
best educated; they are the best trained in the technique of working under duress.
The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective
assessment by some anonymous examiner. Examiners are only human. They get tired and
hungry; they make mistakes. Yet they have to mark stacks of hastily scrawled scripts in a
limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates. And
their word carries weight. After a judge’s decision you have the right of appeal, but not after
an examiner’s. There must surely be many simpler and more effective ways of assessing a
person’s true abilities. Is it cynical to suggest that examinations are merely a profitable
business for the institutions that run them? This is what it boils down to in the last analysis.
The best comment on the system is this illiterate message recently scrawled on a wall: ‘I
were a teenage drop-out and now I are a teenage millionaire. ’
