Part III Reading Comprehension(40%)
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following paage: You must have been troubled by when to say ―I love you‖ because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn‘t love you back? Or if they do say it, but you don‘t feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be ever racking(紧张)and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle(海龟)with no shell.But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakne? Doesn‘ t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand fast?
―A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal,‖ says psychologist Sidney Crown.―But love is seldom equal.‖ All relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in.―That feeling of ‗I‘ve always loved you more‘ may be subverted(颠覆,破坏)for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(大声争吵).― In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful.―The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings,‖ says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins.Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees.―The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative.In fact, the person who says ‗I love you‘ first may also be the one who says ‗I‘m bored with you‘ first.‖ Hall believes that much depends on how ―I love you‖ is said and the motivation
of the person saying it.―Is it said when they‘re drunk? Is it said before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is ‗Please don‘t be unfaithful to me‘? By saying ‗I love you‘, they are really saying ‗Do you love me?‘ If so, wouldn‘t it just be more honest to say that.Collins agrees that intention is everything.―It‘s not what is said, but how it‘s said.What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.‖ 1.What is the main idea of this paage? A.The importance of ―I love you‖.B.The meaning of ―I love you‖.C.The time of saying ―I love you.D.The place of saying ―I love you‖.2.In the first sentence the author means that ________.A.it is easy to say ―I love you‖ B.it is hard to say ―I love you‖
C.we have many troubles in our life D.people usually do not know when to say ―I love you‖
3.According to the expert, a good relationship should be ________.A.fair and equal B.fair and kind C.powerful and equal D.confident and fair 4.In the third paragraph, the phrase ―with the upper hand‖ means ________.A.being low in spirit B.having only one hand C.being active D.being paive 5.What is the most important for you to consider when somebody say ―I love you‖ to you? A.The intention.B.The place.C.The time.D.The determination.Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following paage: Culture shock is the lo of emotional balance, disorientation(茫然失措), or confusion that a person feels when moving from a familiar environment to an unfamiliar one.When it is a common experience, the degree to which it occurs will vary from one person to another.Individual personality, previous cro-cultural experience, and language proficiency all affect a person‘s ability to interact socially in the new culture.The basic cause of culture shock is the abrupt lo of all that is familiar, leading to a sense of isolation.When an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of those familiar signs and hints are removed.He or she is like a fish out of water.No matter how broad-minded or good-willed he may be, a series of properties have been knocked from under him.This may be followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety.People react to the frustration in much the same way.First they reject the environment which causes the discomfort: ―The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad.‖
Another aspect of culture shock is regreion(倒退).The home environment suddenly aumes a tremendous importance, and everything becomes irrationally glorified.All difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered.It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.Common symptoms of culture shock include the following extremes.These are exceive concerns over delays and other minor frustrations;fear of being cheated, robbed or injured;sleeplene or a desire to sleep more;and a great longing to go home.Underlying all these is the uncomfortable feeling of not really belonging, of being an outsider.6.Culture shock is basically caused by ________.A.difficulties in using the language B.being unable to make friends C.feeling desperately homesick D.being away from all that is familiar 7.The degree of culture shock to which one feels varies ________.A.from person to person B.from country to country C.in accordance with a person‘s age D.in accordance with one‘s nationality
8.The first response a person tends to have when setting foot on a new land is ________.A.feeling frustrated B.fearing to be cheated C.having a sense of losing something D.having a sense of being abandoned 9.A home-coming trip will ________.A.draw you back to reality B.make you remember all the good things C.make you forget the troubles D.help you solve the problems 10.Which is NOT a symptom of culture shock? A.Longing to go back home.B.Longing to travel.C.Having fear of being cheated.D.Feeling to be an outsider.There is a paage with ten blanks.You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the paage.Read the paage through carefully before making your choices.Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 11 to 20 are based on the following paage.He looked straight into her eyes, in 11 of a definite answer.―I came here on her behalf,‖ she said, ―She has her words in her letter.‖ He accepted the letter, saw her disap¬pearing amid the throng and got to thinking about what it might tell.The letter read, ―I feel tremendous to you for your sincere friendship.You‘ve sprinkled over my whole life marvelous stars that will never 13.Once I was totally 14 to your deep affection, thorough consideratene that I appreciate so much yet could never repay;neverthele you never mentioned that you‘ve fallen in love with me.You said and I quote: I‘m more of a flower than of a real girl.‖ The very statement brought back in a their beautiful holiday at sea that had impreed him.Yet now everything had 16 such swift changes.―Therefore, I have my time to bloom.I couldn‘t wait any longer, even though I am still immersed in our past, which I really fail to unload.My marriage is 17.In the letter are some aembled photos of us.You can put them away...‖

J)quest K)in turn L)diminish M)thank N)reversed O)flash
There is a short paage with five questions or incomplete statements.Read the paage carefully, and answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest poible words.Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following paage.Young people often wonder at the large number of employers who do not respond to their applications for jobs.They say that despite enclosing return envelopes they hear nothing at all or, at the best, an impersonal note is sent declaring that the post for which they applied has been filled.Applicants often developed the suspicion that vacancies are earmarked(内定)for friends and relatives and that advertisements are only put out to avert this accusation.Many of them tire of writing around and feel that if only they could obtain an interview with the right person their application would meet with succe.Not to acknowledge applicants‘ letters is impolite and there seems little excuse for this.Yet even sending brief replies to the many who apply takes much time and money.That so-called return envelope may not have been stamped by the sender, and a hard-preed office manager may be reluctant to send off long letters of explanation to disappointed job hunters.A brief note is all that can be managed and even that depends on the policy of the firm.But this difficulty is reasonably easy to remove with a little goodwill.16.What is the paage mainly about? ________________________________________________________________________ 17.Many job hunters think that they can get a job if __________________________________.18.The author thinks that a letter to decline an applicant should be ______________________.19.What is the chief reason for a manager not to acknowledge applicants‘ letters?
