keep track of days,months and years.The ancient calendars of China were sometimes divided into 12-year cycle.Each year in the 12-year cycle had the name of an animal.There were twelve animals that were used to name the 12 years of the cycle.These animals are the rat,ox,tiger,rabbit,dragon,snake,horse,sheep,monkey,rooster,dog and boar.You can figure out the animal for any year if you remember the animals names in the above order.Similarly the year of the ox is 1997.The last year of the ox was 1985;before that,1973 and 1961.In ancient times these animals had some significance or meaning for people.There were two common areas of significance that the Chinese calendar was used in.One area of its use was in selecting a marriage partner.For example,a woman who born in the year of the dog was perfectly suited to a man who was born in the year of the rabbit.On the other hand,a man who was born in the year of the snake would not be suitable for a woman who was born in the year of the monkey.People often consulted the charts before selecting a marriage partner.Another area of use for the calendar was in selecting a profession.For example,a person born in the year of the dragon might be good for the medical profession,but not for the legal profession.A person born in the year of the rooster might be suitable for a profession as a cook,but not for a profession as a tailor.According to some accounts,people often consulted the calendar when making choices like these.1.The best title of the passage is _.A.The Ancient Chinese CalendarB.Two Areas of the SignificanceC.Facts about CalendarsD.Functions of Calendars答案：A2.Why are the years1997,1985,1973,1961mentioned in the passage?A.In order to help the people born in the year of the ox.B.In order to give us an example of counting the cycles.C.In order to make us clear about the cycle of 12 years.D.In order to tell us how to match the animals with the years.答案：D3.Which of the functions does NOT a calendar have?A.Selecting marriage partners.B.Dividing a year into parts.C.Telling the exact time.D.Showing the holidays.答案：A4.Which of the following is TRUE?A.A person born in the year of the boar is three years younger than the one in the year of the monkey.B.A person born in the year of the horse in the 21st century will be 12 in 2014.C.In ancient times a woman who was born in the year of the dog was suitable in marriage to a man who was 7 years older in China.D.A boy who was 12 in 1999 was born in the year of the tiger.答案：BBOne spring day I was walking in Paris.At a shop I looked into the window,and then began to walk again.Suddenly a young woman spoke to me in English,“Excuse me,but your coat is dirty.You have white spots on your back.”“I dont think my coat is dirty,”I said.“This is a new coat.”“But I see some white spots on your back,”she insisted.“Someone must have thrown paste at you.I think I can get rid of them.” She began to pull a handkerchief out of her handbag.“Take off your coat right now.I will clean your coat.Oh,this is terrible.” She was so kind that I decided to take off my coat and hand it to her.She spoiled two of her handkerchiefs and made my coat clean again.“Thank you,”I said.But before I put it on again,she began to hurry away from me.I quickly checked my pocket.Oh!My wallet was gone.She was a member of a pickpocket group.Three years later,I was taking pictures in the beautiful city of Alexandria in Egypt.A girl came up to me,asking me to see what was wrong with her camera.“Another young girl!I had better take care of my wallet,” I began to step away from her.Then she called her father.An elderly man came and said,“Excuse me.We are visitors from Israel.We dont know how to change the film.You look like a photographer.Can you do us a favour?”“Sure,”I said.“Its no problem.The fact is that I once had my pocket picked in Paris by a young girl.I have been very nervous about young girls since then.”The father and I laughed,and we became friends.But how difficult it is to tell a good girl from a bad one while they are young and beautiful!5.Someone had thrown paste at the back of the writers coat _.A.without knowing about itB.on

dishwasher,he turned up the radio in the car.“I just turned the corner,and there was Mark,”Murphy said of the police officer who has since made such a difference in his life.Officer Mark Taylor had stopped the car as he heard the blaring（震耳的） music.When he asked for a drivers license,Murphy said that he didnt have one.Murphy told Taylor he couldnt read well enough to take the written part of the licensing test.“He said people just dont help anymore.I told him if he was willing,Id like to help him,”said Taylor.He gave Murphy his phone number.That afternoon Murphy called the officer.For the next three months,the men met several times a week to review the questions which might appear in the test.When Murphy took the test,Taylor went with him.Murphy passed on his sixth attempt.He then sailed through the road test.On September 5,he got his license.Taylors act of kindness won him the Officer of the Month Award（月度奖） from the Knoxville Police Department.“People should help each other if they can,”Taylor said.“Randy did all the work.I just guided him along.”Although Murphy has overcome the difficulty that kept him from getting a drivers license,he hasnt stopped there.“We still meet once a week to read,”Taylor said.“Weve also become friends.”“Im glad he pulled me over now,” said Murphy.9.Murphy was stopped by Taylor because _.A.the music in his car was too loudB.he drove without a drivers licenseC.he made a wrong turn at a cornerD.he listened to the radio while driving答案：A10.After learning Murphys situation,Taylor decided _.A.to put an end to his luckB.to help him learn how

to see people in need of help were not helpedD.he thought it was a policemans duty to help people read答案：CDThere is a difference between science and technology.Science is a method of answering theoretical questions;technology is a method of solving practical problems.Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between things in nature and with finding ways to organize the facts and relationships;technology has to do with tools,techniques,and procedures for making practical use of scientific findings.Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each.Progress in science does not include human factor.Scientists,who seek to understand the universe and know the truth in the most exact way and certain way,cannot pay attention to their own or other peoples likes or dislikes,or to popular ideas about the fitness of things.What scientists discover may shock or anger peopleas Darwins theory of evolution did.But even an upleasant truth is more than likely to be useful.Besides,we can have the choice to refuse to believe it!But hardly so with technology;we cannot have the choice to hear the noise produced by a plane flying overhead;we cannot have the choice to breathe polluted air.Unlike science,progress in technology must be our slave and not the master.The right purpose of technology is to serve peoplepeople in general,not only some people;and future generations,not only those who wish to gain advantage for themselves at present.We can all familiar with the misuse of technology.Many people blame technology itself for widespread pollution,resource waste and social problems in generalso much so that the promise of technology becomes harder to see.That promise is a cleaner and healthier world.If wise application of science and technology do not lead to a better world,what else will?13.Which of the following is TRUE about the relationship between science and technology?A.Science is somewhat theoretical while technology is practical.B.Science has nothing to do with humans while technology affects the world so much.C.Science is to explain the universe while technology is to find the peoples ideas about science.D.Progress in science must be our slave while that in technology must be master.答案：A14.The underlined word “distinction” in Paragraph 2 possibly means _.A.a practical useB.a weak pointC.a common characterD.a clear difference答案：D15.In the last paragraph the writer means to tell us that _.A.there is too much misuse of technology and the world is going to be ruinedB.technology has brought us pollution,resource waste and social problemsC.we may expect a better world if science and technology are made wise use ofD.people may live better without modern science and technology答案：C16.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The right purpose of technology is to gain advantage for people present.B.Progress in science does not have to do with the likes or dislikes of people.C.People dont have to admit the truth of a scientific finding if they dont believe it.D.All our efforts on technology can be described as devotion to future generations.答案：BEWithin a few short years,girls in Europe have become heavier smokers than boys,for reasons experts still fail to understand,according to a British study presented last week to an international conference on smoking.Anti-smoking activists at the second “Tobacco or Health” conference in the Canary Islands pointed out that while adults （grown-ups） were giving up smoking in ever growing numbers,more and more young people were taking up the habit,particularly girls.One 15-year-old in four is a regular smoker,according to a study made in 27 countries in Europe and the United States,Canada and Israelby Edinburgh University together with the World Health Organization.In Western Europe,girls were more likely than boys to smoke.In Germany or in England,one third of the girls were smokers compared to one in four boys.In Eastern Europe,the girls “still fall behind” those in the Western Europe but were “catching up” quickly,said the study.The study dealt with the behavior of 15-year-old in seven European countries over four-year periods between 1986 and 1998.The percentages of young women smoking went from 17 percent to 36 percent in Austria,from 17 percent to 28 percent in Norway,from 21 percent to 28 percent in Hungary.In the seven countries and regions studied,Austria,Finland,Hungary,Norway,Sweden, Switzerland and Walesmore girls smoked than boys in 1998,with the exception of Hungary.17.The number of boy smokers is _ that of girl smokers.A.larger thanB.as large asC.smaller thanD.as small as答案：C18.The study was made by _.A.Edinburgh UniversityB.the World Health
