Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension

Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 4 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.

Task 1

Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements numbered 36 to 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Linkup, the APP Research and Development Company, has announced it will give more than twenty-five million dollars in money and investments to help the poor. The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives.

James Lee works for Linkup.org—the part of the company that gives money in good causes. He says the company's first project will help identify where infectious diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, Linkup.org will work with partners to strengthen early- warning systems and take action against growing health threats.

Linkup.org's second project will invest in ways to help small and medium-sized businesses grow. James Lee says microfinance is generally small, short-term loans that create few jobs. Instead, he says Linkup.org wants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to create jobs and improve economic growth.

Linkup.org will also give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year. One of these programs studies ways to make renewable (可再生的) energy less costly than coal-based energy. The other is examining the efforts being made to increase the use of electric cars.

The owners of Linkup have promised to give Linkup.org about one percent of company profits and one percent of its total stock value every year. James Lee says this amount may increase in the future.

36、The purpose of the Linkup's investments is to ______.

A．develop new technology               B．explore its own business

C．help poor people                      D．set up new markets

37、According to James Lee, the company's first project is to ______.

A．discover where infectious diseases develop

B．establish a new system to warn people of infectious diseases

C．find out the causes of infectious diseases

D．cure patients of infectious diseases

38、What kind of businesses will benefit from Linkup.org's second project? ______

A．Foreign-funded corporations.

B．Small and medium-sized businesses.

C．Large enterprises.

D．State-owned companies.

39、From the fourth paragraph, we learn that Linkup.org's money is also invested to help ______.

A．start more research programs

B．make more advanced electric cars

C．develop renewable and coal-based energy

D．conduct studies related to climate changes

40、From the last paragraph we learn that the investments by Linkup.org come from ______.

A．Linkup's profits and stock value

B．some international IT companies

C．the company's own interests

D．local commercial bank

Task 2

Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.

If you think 3D printing is only good for making delicate paperweights (压纸器), then you're pretty much right. However, a group of Dutch architects have already begun 3D printing an entire canal house in Amsterdam. Is the first 3D-printed house a gimmick (噱头)? Definitely! Is it an experiment that pushes the possibilities for 3D printing technology and architecture? Maybe!

3D Print Canal House is the brainchild of DUS Architects. "KamerMaker," Dutch for "room maker", is their giant printer built inside a shipping container. Just a few weeks ago, KamerMaker began printing plastic furniture and walls at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam. Smaller versions of the unusual honeycomb (蜂巢) walls have been tested on normal desktop printers, and every one just needed to be scaled up (按比例放大). Well, if only it were that easy.

"The printer did not always manage to spread the plastic evenly (均匀地) , making some of the ribs of the honeycomb structure of the block uneven," reported ARN (Australian Radio Network) to the surprise of no one who has used a 3D printer. But the architects remain optimistic. The first few printed blocks are meant to be test prices as they improve the process.

It takes about a week to print a 3-meter high block right now. The project's leaders hope to eventually get that down to two hours and finish the first of 12 rooms in a year, and the entire house in less than 3 years.

Finally, 3D Print Canal House is an architectural research project, one that is very much being conducted in the public eye. You can actually buy tickets to visit the construction site for 2.5 euros.

The top floors will become more decorated, for example, as newer techniques are incorporated. They'll explore the possibilities of 3D printing, like honeycomb walls or an entire room recycled, redesigned, and built anew. Nobody's going to move into 3D-printed house soon, but, if anyone ever does, something might be learned from this experiment by the canal.

41、Which word can best replace "brainchild" in Paragraph 2? ______

A．Inspiration.                           B．Aspiration.

C．Baby child.                           D．Brain cell.

42、Where did KamerMaker begin printing plastic furniture and walls several weeks ago? ______

A．It was inside a shipping container in Amsterdam.

B．It was at an empty canal-side lot in northern Amsterdam.

C．It was in a canal house in Amsterdam.

D．It was in a room.

43、What is the weakness of the 3D printer mentioned in the passage? ______

A．It cannot always spread the plastic evenly.

B．It needs to be shortened.

C．It cannot make the ribs of the honeycomb structure.

D．It can print anything smoothly.

44、How long will it probably take for the 3D printer to make the canal house in Amsterdam? ______

A．A week.                              B．Two hours.

C．More than 3 years.                     D．Less than 3 years.

45、Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the passage? ______

A．This canal house is being built in the public eye.

B．The top floors of the canal house will be more decorated.

C．Someone is going to move into this canal house soon.

D．One can visit the construction site for 2.5 euros.

Task 3

Directions: The following is a passage. After reading it, you should complete the information by filling in the blanks marked 46 through 50 in the table below. You should write your answer in no more than 3 words on the corresponding Answer Sheet.

Let's say you have a certain amount of money you've saved up for holiday gifts. If you want to get something for everyone on your list, you can't spend much on any single purchase.

But have you ever heard the expression "time is money" ? There's some truth to it! We "spend" time just like we "spend" money, and in both cases, we have to spend it wisely if we want to get something good in return. Just like you might get an allowance of 10 dollars a week, or 30 dollars for a trip to the mall, each day we are given 24 hours of time.

The easiest way to help you get everything done is to budget that time! This is all about:

—Examining your Have-to's and Want-to's and how much time they'll take up.

—Working out a plan that lets you spend the right amount of minutes or hours on each one.

Once you have this plan, a "time budget", you'll be better able to create a Daily Schedule and Weekly Planner. Of course, every day isn't exactly the same as the next, so it may help you to make a different time budget for different days.

Let's look at a sample time budget on Wednesday.

Sleep  8 hours

Shower, dressing, ready for school  1/2 hour

Breakfast  1/2 hour

Bus to school  1/2 hour

School  7 hours

Bus home  1/2 hour

Soccer practice  2 hours

Household chores  1/2 hour

Homework  2 hours

Dinner  1/2 hour

TV time  1 hour

Reading/Personal time  1 hour

Total time spent:  24 hours

Great! That day's budget works out, because it all adds up to 24 hours. If the total came out to be more than that, we would have to choose something to cut back on or drop from that day. When you make these types of decisions, you choose priorities.

Time Budget Tips

Similarities between money and time: both should be spent  46   to get a good return.

The easiest ways to budget time: 1. Decide  47   and Want-to's.

2. Examine how much time they will take up.

3. Work out  48   to allocate the time.

A sample time budget: the day's budget should add up to  49   hours.

You choose  50   to decide which activity to cut down.

Task 4

Directions: In this part, you are going to read a passage with 5 statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the one from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph no more than once. The 5 statements ate numbered 51 to 55. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. You should mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

A. Interest in pursuing international careers has soared in recent years, enhanced by chronic (长期的) personnel shortages that are causing companies to search beyond their home borders for talent.

B. Professionals seek career experience outside of their home countries for a variety of reasons. They may feel the need to recharge their batteries with a new challenge. They may want a position with more responsibility that encourages creativity and initiative. Or they may wish to expose their children to another culture, and the opportunity to learn a second language.

C. When applying for a job, one usually has to submit a resume or CV. The two terms generally mean the same thing: a one page or two pages of document describing one's educational qualifications and professional experience. However, guidelines for preparing a resume are constantly changing. The best advice is to find out what is appropriate regarding the corporate (公司的) culture, the country culture, and the culture of the person making the hiring decision. The challenge will be to embrace two or more cultures in one document. The following list is a good place to start.

D. Educational requirements differ from country to country. In almost every case of "cross-border" job hunting, just stating the title of your degree will not be an adequate description. Provide the reader with details about your studies and any related experience.

E. Pay attention to the resume format you use—chronological or reverse-chronological order. Chronological order means listing your "oldest" work experience first. Reverse-chronological order means listing your current or most recent experience first. Most countries have preferences about which format is most acceptable. If you find no specific guidelines, the general preference is for the reverse-chronological format.

F. If you are submitting your resume in English, find out if the receiver uses British English or American English because there are variations between the two versions. For example, university education is often referred to as "tertiary education" in the United Kingdom, but this term is almost never used in the United States. A reader who is unfamiliar with these variations may assume that your resume contains errors.

51、The author believes that an individual who applies to work overseas seeks either his own or his children's development.

52、When it comes to resume writing, it is best to take cultural factors into consideration.

53、According to the author's advice, the applicants should be aware of the differences between the varieties of British English and American English.

54、Companies are hiring more foreign employees because they have difficulty finding qualified personnel at home.

55、When writing about qualifications, applicants are advised to provide a detailed description of their studies and work experience.
