Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.AA report, published in last weeks Journal of the American Medical Association, offers a picture of how risky it is to get a lift from a teenage driver. Indeed, a 16-year-old driver with three or more passengers is three times as likely to have a fatal (致命) accident as a teenager driving alone. By contrast, the risk of death for drivers between 30 and 59 decreases with each additional passenger.The author also found that the death rates for teenage drivers increased dramatically after 10 p. m., and especially after midnight. With passengers in the car, the driver was even more likely to die in a late-night accident.Robert Foss, a scientist at the University of North Carolina Highway Safety Research Center, says the higher death rates for teenage drivers have less to do with “really stupid behavior” than with just a lack of driving experience. “The basic thing,” he says, “is that adults who are responsible for issuing (发放) licenses fail to recognize how skilled a task driving is.”Both he and the author of the study believe that the way to reduce the harm is to have so-called graduated licensing systems, in which getting a license is a slower process. A graduated license requires that a teenager first prove himself capable of driving in the presence of an adult, followed by a period of driving at night with a limited number of passengers before graduating to get a full driving license.Graduated licensing systems have reduced teenage driver crashes, according to recent studies. About half of the states now have some sort of graduated licensing system in place, but only 10 of those states have number limitation on passengers. California is the strictest, with a new driver prohibited from carrying any passenger under 20 for the first six months.56. Which of the following situations is most dangerous according to the passage?A. Adults giving a lift to teenagers on the highway after 10 p. m.B. A teenager driving after midnight with passengers in the car.C. Adults driving with three or more teenage passengers late at night.D. A teenager getting a lift from a stranger on the highway at midnight.57. According to Robert Foss, the high death rate of teenage drivers is mainly due to _.A. their frequent driving at nightB. their lack of driving experienceC. their improper way of drivingD. their driving with passengers58. Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 3?A. Teenagers should spend more time learning to drive.B. Driving is a skill too difficult for teenagers to learn.C. Teenagers should be limited in taking driving lessons.D. People issuing license are partly responsible for the accidents.59. A suggested measure to be taken to reduce teenagers driving accidents is that _.A. driving in the presence of an adult should be made a ruleB. they should be forbidden to take on passengersC. they should not be allowed to drive after 10 p. m.D. the licensing systems should be improved60. The present situation in about half of the states is that the graduated licensing system _.A. is under discussionB. is about to be set upC. has been put into effectD. has been perfectedB“Confidence” is probably one of the most noticeable traits (特点) in the Americans. They show confidence in the way they talk, the way they smile, the way they dress and the way they walk. Living and peting with all these confident American students, I find it extremely important to be confident as an international student and a foreign instructor. As a student, being confident means you should never hesitate to raise your hand whenever a question or a point es to your mind. Dont mind if it sounds simple or silly. Otherwise you will never get a chance to speak in class at all. Whats worse, the professors may think you are not prepared for the discussion or you do not have your own opinion on the issuethis is the last ment any graduate would like to receive.Being confident for me as a foreign instructor means calmly asking the student to repeat what he or she has said if I did not get it. Pretending to understand what you actually do not may just bring yourself embarrassment or even disgrace. But the time I most need to be confident is when my students e to my office and bargain about the grades I have given for their speeches (The course Im teaching here is Public Speaking). Modesty is a trait highly valued in China, but it wont be of much help here if you want to survive and succeed in a good American graduate program.61. To pete with American students, its very important to _.A. be quite confidentB. be polite and friendlyC. have more discussions with themD. understand what they think about62. A professor will have the worst opinion of a student who _.A. gives a silly or simple answerB. tries to seize any chance to speak in classC. shows no interest in the courseD. is considered to have no opinion of his own63. The author is most likely to feel embarrassed if _.A. he asks a student to repeat what he has saidB. the students bargain with himC. he pretends to know what he doesntD. he has to give a speech64. We learn from the second paragraph that _.A. we should also remain modest in AmericaB. modesty doesnt help you much in AmericaC. Americans also like modest peopleD. modesty can help you get through an American graduate program65. The passage is mainly developed by _.A. providing examplesB. making parisonsC. giving different figuresD. telling personal experiencesCDo you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized(把归类) as “honor” help you create this life of good feelings.Heres an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent, and profit from the clerks mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky (暗中的) excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we dont tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerks attention causes different things to happen. Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased. Whenever we take honorable actions we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions.Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence. And its easy to think and act honorably again when were happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once its started, its easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness.66. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our _.A. self-respectB. financial rewardsC. advertising abilityD. friendly relationship67. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to _.A. lying B. stealingC. cheating D. advertising68. The underlined phrase “bringing the error to the clerks attention” means _.A. telling the truth to the clerkB. offering advice to the clerkC. asking the clerk to be more attentiveD. reminding the clerk of the charged items69. How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?A. Well be very excited.B. Well feel unfortunate.C. Well have a sense of honor.D. Well feel sorry for the clerk.70. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. How to Live TruthfullyB. Importance of PeacefulnessC. Ways of Gaining Self-respectD. Happiness through Honorable ActionsPart Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.No one should be forced to wear a uniform under any circumstance. Uniforms are demanding to the human spirit and totally unnecessary in a democratic(民主的) society. Uniforms tell the world that the person who wears one has no value as an individual but only lives to function as a part of a whole. The individual in a uniform loses all self-worth.Therere those who say that wearing a uniform gives a person a sense of identification with a larger, more important concept. What could be more important than the individual himself? If an organization is so weak that it must rely on cloth and buttons to inspire its members, that organization has no right to continue its existence. Others say that the practice of making persons wear uniforms, say in a school, removes all envy and petition in the matter of dress, such that a poor person who cant afford good quality clothing neednt be looked down upon by a wealthy person who wears expensive, quality clothing. Those persons conveniently ignore such vital concepts as freedom of choice, motivation and individuality. If all persons were to wear the same clothing, why would anyone struggle to be better? Its only a short step from forcing everyone to wear the same clothing to forcing everyone to drive the same car, have the same type of house, and eat the same type of food. When this happens, all inspiration to improve ones life is removed. Why would parents bother to work hard so that their children are going to be forced to have exactly the same life tha
