Part A

Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.

Medicine comes in many forms. In its liquid form, medicine affects the body very quickly. But the effects of liquid medicine arch' t usually long-lasting. This is why pills and capsules (胶囊) are also used.

The pills and capsules being sold today arch' t perfect, either. Pills dissolve in the stomach. The medicine in the pills is released when the pills dissolve. But often, the pills dissolve too quickly.

Scientists have been trying to develop a pill that can release medicine slowly over a long period of time. They have applied their knowledge of plants to produce the "osmotic (渗透的) pump pill".

The cell walls of plants are made of cellulose (纤维素). Cellulose is a very porous substance. Their holes are big enough to allow water through the cell walls. As water enters a cell, pressure builds up in the cell. The pressure pumps other substances out of the cell. These substances leave the cell through the cellulose wall. This slow, steady process is called osmosis.

The osmotic pump pill is coated with synthetic cellulose. Liquid medicine is contained in the pill. The holes in the cellulose coating of the pill are big enough to allow water in the pill. As water from the body enters the pill, pressure builds up in the pill. The medicine is then slowly pumped out of the pill.

The passage implies that the osmotic pump pill is better than other pills and capsules because______.

A.it releases medicine slowly over a long period of time

B.it helps to build pressure in the body

C.the medicine in the pill can affect the body quickly

D.the coating doesn't dissolve in the stomach

    正确答案:

    参考范文

    A self-evident prejudice is made clear by the given saying that a woman’s career, particularly if it is successful, is often blamed for the break-up of a marriage, but never a man’s.  Those who support the saying attribute the break-up of a marriage to the successful career of the wife. In their eyes, a successful woman devoted to her career will certainly neglect her duties to her husband, her children and thus results in the break-up of the family. This accusation is unfair and absolutely unacceptable.

    The prejudice lies in the fact that it has been branded in our mind that women should be inferior to men and they should be at home to foster children and to support their husband. In fact, women should be entitled the rights to have their own careers. They have the rights to get the satisfaction from work besides that from their families. This accusation ignores the fact that the responsibilities for break-up of a marriage should be taken by both parties instead of one. Cleary, to blame a carrer woman for the break-up of a marriage is groundless.

    As a conclusion, what has been traditionally taken for granted in our mind should be replaced by more rational ideas. From now on, it should be prescribed in our mind as law of various nations that everyone is born equal and they should be on equal terms.

    正确答案:

    As is illustrated in the picture, the two disabled persons whose crippled legs are bound together do a lot of traveling. Accordingly, this far-reaching picture reflects a common phenomenon in today’s society: the people who are in the dark want to turn the corner but they can not make it respectively and in turn they have to choose to pull together in times of trouble.
      There are several reasons accounting for this. Since we have to live in an on-the-move lifestyle, we may encounter various plights, where we would be at a loss rather than to seek for others’ assistance. Further more, if we do not offer help to each other when we confront dilemma, we would not realize our dream. And no issue in China is as basic to build up the society in harmony as to conduct coordination in face of disasters.
      Judging from what have been argued above, people have come to realize the value of mutual aid. It is, therefore, necessary that some effective steps be made to advocate spirit of supporting each other. To begin with, the government should make laws to encourage people to unite. In addition, people should enhance the awareness of caring each other especially when they are in trouble. Only in those ways, can we make people, even not being acquaintance, help each other.

    Part A

    Directions: Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A,B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET I. (40 points)

    Text 1

    We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? .... When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?" "And Paul—why didn't pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it' s too late.

    Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don' t really listen we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You' re a lucky dog." That' s being friendly. But "lucky dog?" There's a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that the doesn't think you deserve your luck.

    "Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for," is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important. It' s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven' t got a date for Saturday night.

    How can you tell the real meaning behind someone' s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice?

    His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people to you may save another mistake.

    21. This passage is mainly about______.

    A) how to interpret what people say

    B) what to do when you listen to others talking

    C) how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people

    D) why we go wrong with people sometimes

Your essay should cover these three points:  (1)effect of the country’s growing human population on its wildlife  (2)possible reason for the effect  (3)your suggestion for wildlife protection Your essay must be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET.

    正确答案:
    The above graphs show the relation between population growth and wildlife extinction rate in the U.S. The population of America has been increasing all the time since 1800. The other graph reveals that the number of wildlife species remained almost stable from 1600 to 1700. But it is saddening to see that wildlife extinction rate increases very fast from the year of 1700. We can get a rough conclusion: the increasing population endangers the existence of wildlife.
    Several reasons may contribute to this grievous phenomenon. To begin with, millions of wild animals are hunted for food or other purposes. One notorious example is Japan’s whaling fleet. Whales are hunted for whale-bone as well as for blubber, thus its population decreasing each year. Another reason comes from the pollutions human make. The ecosystem has been disturbed and some animals are losing their habitats.
    To stop the situation from becoming worse, we must take action at once. Related laws and regulations should be passed to protect the environment and wildlife. When people’s consciousness of protecting wildlife is raised, the safety of the wildlife will be guaranteed.

    正确答案:
    【参考范文】
    The Problem of the Wildlife Protection in the U.S. The above graphs show that the population of the U.S. increased rapidly during nearly 200 years thanks to the progress in technology and economy. However, the development is achieved at the cost of some wildlife.
    There are various reasons for this situation. But the most prominent one is human being’s weak awareness of wildlife protection, which leads to the decrease and extinction of wildlife as a result of illegal hunting and killing for profits. It is becoming even more difficult for wildlife to survive, with the gradual decrease of forest and pasture coverage area and the increase of pollution and soil erosion due to the explosion of population.
    To solve this problem, the U.S. government needs to enhance people’s awareness of wildlife protection and even to formulate some relevant laws and regulations. What’s more, more investment should be added to the wildlife protection to create a better environment for the existing wildlife.

    Reading Books in Printed Form. or on Computer

    The popularization of computer has made it possible to read books on computer. With it, there is much discussion about whether e-books will replace traditional print-on-paper books.

    Some people say they like only e-books, which are quicker and more convenient to get and use. To get a needed book, one has to spend much time or money in searching for or buying it in bookstores, but one can just type in the title, author or other related information of the book to find it in minutes on internet. Sometimes one can even read the full content of a digitized book free of charge or instantly discuss about a book in an online forum. Moreover, a lot of information of books can be stored in a small compact disc, which is easy to take.

    Other people, however, think printed books are still necessary. In the first place, too much time in front of the computer can cause eyestrain or increase radiation risks. Second, a printed book can be read at your convenience. One can read in bed before sleep or during a boring journey, without fussing with a computer.

    In sum, since e-books and printed books have their respective advantages and can complement each other, I would like to combine the two ways to meet different needs. For quick reference, a digitized book will probably be useful. To appreciate a poem or a novel, I prefer the traditional way of reading on printed books.

    正确答案:
    The Influence of Popular CultureIt seems that image and appearance are attracting more and more attention in the modern world which is full of material desires. Some believe that it is the rise of popular culture including the media, sport and the fashion industry to blame. It is definitely true that this has somewhat brought about some shallow and egoistic people. However, we absolutely should not attribute this to the popular culture itself.
    Popular culture, opposite to exquisite culture, is easy to appreciate and comprehend and is oriented to the common people. Being popular does not mean emphasizing the appearance. The reason why they mislead some people is that they have developed a false concept in their mind. They believe anything popular must be presentational and only related to outer appearance.
    Whether the influence of popular culture is positive or negative depends on how people perceive and treat them. Properly used, they can instruct and entertain the public; on the contrary, they can also produce a generation of skin-deep people.

    Do some soul searching.

    D

    Make your resume distinctive.


    正确答案: A
    解析: 关于找工作的建议,访谈中女士提到,进行核心搜索。接着又提到,按优先次序列出5到10件你认为在工作中最重要的事情。也就是找出你最想要的。另外还谈到,必须使你的简历脱颖而出。故排除B、C、D项。文中并未提及选项A内容,故A项为正确答案。
