Part II. Cloze (Total: 20 points. Each item: 1 point)

Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each blank, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.

For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 31 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 32 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 33 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 34 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 35 in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have 36 meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 37 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 38 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 39 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 40 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 41 reads.

To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 42 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 43 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 44 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 45 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 46 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 47 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 48 Charles Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 49 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute. He is delighted that how he can 50 a lot more reading material in a short period of time.

Part III Reading comprehension (Total: 40 points. Each item: 2 points)

Directions: Read the following passages carefully. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.

Passage 1

It seems that beauty and women are twins. You are joking? No, I am not. Observe for yourself. Ads on fashion flood TV screens, radio programs, magazines, newspapers, and the streets. Whether they have realized or not, women are besieged (包围)by a sea of fashion. They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm. So who dares to neglect dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth?

But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks. The richness of their mind proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their looks. A woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called “aunt” or “granny” can still maintain her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge, ability, a kind heart, great courage and concern for others.

In addition, old and young, beautiful and ugly are relative concepts(概念). People who keep a young mind will never feel old. Curious about new things and eager to learn more, they keep up with the tide. Plainly dressed women may have a type of beauty, which is pure and real.

Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful. Good books are fertile(肥沃的)soil which can feed the flower of one’s heart and looks.

51. Why does the author say that beauty and women are twins?

A. Women are born to be beauties.

B. Women like to show off their beauty.

C. Women try to maintain their beauty by dressing up.

D. Women are proud of their beauty.

52. According to the author, in order to stay young and attractive, women should ______.

A. follow the fashion B. dress up in beautiful clothes

C. do more exercises D. enrich their mind

53. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. As a woman grows old, her beauty will gradually disappear.

B. However old she is, a woman with some excellent qualities can still maintain her beauty.

C. Even a plainly dressed woman may have pure and real beauty.

D. A woman with a young mind never feels old.

54. The word “relative” (line 1, paragraph 3) most probably means _______.

A. similar B. comparative C. related D. independent

55. The author believes that ________.

A. women should lay more emphasis on their own qualities

B. beautiful clothes can make women more attractive

C. women have to show their beauty through their looks

D. women are more curious about new things than men

Passage 2

Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one’s muscles also participate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.

You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to music not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their bodies or, more specifically, some parts of their bodies. Often when one listens to a concert on the radio, he is tempted to direct the band even though he knows there is a competent conductor on the job.

Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot get all possible enjoyment from music unless he participates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels” himself into the music with more or less pronounced motions of his body.

The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process of thinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious because it is less pronounced.

56. Some psychologists maintain that thinking is______.

A. not a mental process

B. more of a physical process than a mental action

C. a process that involves the muscles as well as the whole body

D. a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain

57. The process of thinking and that of listening are similar in that ______.

A. both are mental acts B. muscles participate in both processes

C. both processes are performed by the entire body D. we obtain equal enjoyment from them

58. The pronounced body motions are a listener’s way of ______.

A. “feeling” the music B. participating in the performance

C. deriving enjoyment from the music D. all of the above

59. Body movements are necessary in order for the listener to ______.

A. hear the music B. appreciate the music

C. train the muscle D. figure out the real meaning of a piece of music

60. The best title for this selection is _______.

A. An Ear for Music

B. Music Appreciation

C. How Muscles Participates in Mental Acts

D. A Psychological Definition of the Thinking Process

Passage 3

The Red Cross is an international organization which cares for people who are in need of help. A man in a Paris hospital who needs blood, a woman in Mexico who was injured in an earthquake, and a family in India that lost their home in a storm may all be aided by the Red Cross.

The Red Cross exists in almost every country around the globe. The world Red Cross organizations are sometimes called the Red Crescent, the Red Mogen David, the Sun, and the Red Lion. All of these agencies share a common goal of trying to help people in need.

The idea of forming an organization to help the sick and wounded during a war started with Jean Henri Dunant. In 1859, he observed how people were suffering on a battlefield in Italy. He wanted to help all the wounded people regardless of which side they were fighting for. The most important result of his work was an international treaty called the Geneva Convention. It protects prisoners of war, the sick and wounded, and other citizens during a war.

The American Red Cross was set up by Clara Barton in 1881. Today the Red Cross in the United States provides a number of services for the public, such as helping people in need, teaching first aid, demonstrating water safety and artificial respiration, and providing blood.

61. A good title for this selection is ____.

A. The International Red Cross B. Safety at Home and School

C. Clara Barton and the Sun D. The American Red Cross

62. The word “aided” in paragraph 1 means ______.

A. reported B. understood C. caught D. helped

A. costs very little money B. helps any people in need

C. teaches first aid if necessary D. gets into trouble

64 The person who started the idea of this organization was ______.

A. Cross B. Barton C. Dunant D. a prisoner of war

A. helping people in need

B. teaching first aid, demonstrating water safety and artificial respiration

C. providing blood for the sick and wounded
