Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension

Passage One

An Adjustment to Price

Most American people hate repeating the same work endlessly, especially those who live in West America. They try their best to make their life colorful and their work interesting. If they have to do the same regular work , they'll try to do it in different ways. Repetition and monotony(单调)are what they can't stand.

In the West of America, there is a beautiful old mountain village which is well known for its straw hats. The villagers there can make many different styles of hats-hats for old gentlemen, for sweet and playful children and for beautiful young ladies. People often go there to buy hats.

One day there came a young tourist who entered a hat shop and found a very nice hat that cost five dollars. He said to the shop-keeper, "If you agree to sell at a cheaper price, I'd like to buy two hundred hats of this style." "No, you should pay me at least ten dollars each if you wish to get so many hats of the same style."

"How's that?" The tourist could not understand.

"Well," said the shop-keeper, "If you buy only one hat of this style, I can make it easily. If you order two hundred hats of different styles, I can also manage the business without much difficulty. However,it will almost bore me to death if you want me to make two hundred hats of the same style. So at least you pay me double price."

61、We can learn from the story that ______.

A.Only the straw hats of the same style were sold

B.most American people don't want to do the same work again and again

C.the straw hats were sold only in the mountain village

A.frightened

B.pleased

C.puzzled

D.delighted

64、Why did the shop-keeper demand the tourist to pay him double price? ______

A.Because the shop-keeper couldn't make two hundred hats of the same style.

B.Because the shop-keeper couldn't stand repeating the same work endlessly.

C.Because the shop-keeper didn't want to sell him so many hats.

D.Because the shop-keeper hadn't enough straw to make the hats.

65、"It will bore me almost to death" in Paragraph 5 means that ______.

A.it would be too expensive for the shop-keeper

B.the shop-keeper was bored and would die at once

C.the shop-keeper was dying

D.it would be too boring for the shop-keeper

Passage Two

It is exciting to apply for a job that really appeals to you. In making your application, there are a number of points for you to observe.

In your letter of application, say just enough to give a good account of yourself without being wordy. If you are answering an advertisement, any information for which it asks must, of course, be given. This will usually cover your academic record and any further education and training. You may also be asked to give the names of one or two persons to supply references. For this purpose you should choose people who know you well enough to vouch(保证) for your character and ability; and to be polite, you should seek in advance their permission to be named as referees.

It will depend on circumstances how much you can carefully add about yourself. Your purpose is to bring to the notice of the employer any good reason why you rather than any of the other applicants should be chosen for the job. Therefore, if you feel you have any special skill or talent for the work, or particular interest in the line of the business, let it be known.

Finally, there is your use of language. You cannot go wrong if you keep your sentences and paragraphs short, making sure the sense is clear and well-expressed. Choose plain words so long as they convey the meaning.

66、The aim of writing a letter of application is to ______.

A.indicate why you are most suitable for the job

Passage Three

Doctors have known for a long time that extremely loud noises can cause hearing damage or loss. The noise can be the sound of a jet airplane or machines in factories or loud music or other common sound at home or at work. A person only needs to hear the noise for a little more than one second to be affected. An American scientist has found that using aspirin can increase the temporary hearing loss or damage from loud noise. He did an experiment, using a number of male students at a university who all had normal hearing. He gave them different amounts of aspirin for different periods of time, and then he tested their hearing ability. He found that the students who were given four grams of aspirin a day for two days suffered much greater temporary hearing loss than those who did not use aspirin. The hearing loss was about two times as great. The scientist said millions of people in the United States use much larger amounts of aspirin than were used in the study. He said these people face a serious danger of suffering hearing loss from loud noise.

Passage Four

Ancient people had little idea of the nature of the earth's surface. But if they lived on the seashore, they knew that there was land and sea.

People who lived near the sea noticed that there were two kinds of land. There were, first, little pieces of land surrounded by sea. One Latin word for "sea "is" salum", which means "salt". This is because sea water, unlike rain-water, contains salt--it is salty. So a piece of land in the sea was "in salt" in Latin, and this became isle in English.

Then there was another kind of land that went on and on. It was "continuous" land, and so became known as continent in English from the Latin "continens" meaning continuous. In English, we also speak of a continent as the mainland ("main" comes from the Latin "magnus" meaning "great"), as opposed to island( isle-land).

To the ancient Greek, there seemed to be three continents separated by sea. The-Mediterranean Sea, in fact, gets its name from the Latin "medius" (middle) and "terra"(land). It was a sea that lay in the middle, with three bodies of land around it. The three continents—Asia, Europe and Africa—are actually connected by land. Africa and Asia are connected by only the small Sinai Isthmus, from the Greek "isthmus" meaning "a narrow passage", but Europe and Asia are connected by land for a thousand miles or more and it is customary to speak of Europe as a continent. Many geographers speak of the landmass of Asia plus Europe as Eurasia, and Eurasia plus Africa is sometimes called the World Island. The three together are surrounded by sea, so they form a large island, and they contain about 85 percent of the earth's population.

76、People in ancient times knew ______.

A.a lot about land and sea

B.some continents were connected

C.little about the surface of the earth

D.many people lived on the World Island

77、The word "continent" comes from ______ language.

A.the Latin

B.the Roman

C.the Greek

D.the Hebrew

78、"Eurasia" is the name for the continents of ______.

A.Europe and Asia

B.Europe and Africa

C.Africa and Asia

D.Europe, Asia and Africa

79、What connects Asia and Africa? ______

A.A small island.

B.A large desert.

C.A narrow passage.

D.A wide land.

80、About 85% of the population in the world are living ______.

A.in Europe

B.in Asia

C.in Eurasia

D.on the World Island

81、Learning English has been almost a painful experience for me, one that I wouldn't trade for anything. Not only did learning English teach me the value of hard work, but also gave me insights(领悟) into another culture. The most exciting result of having learned English is that I am able to communicate with many more people than before. Talking with people is my favorite activity, so the newly learned language allows me to meet new people, participate in conversations, and form new and unforgettable friendships.
