The book contains many types of selec

10、tion on a wide variety of topics. These selections provide practice (23) using different reading strategies to extract the message of the writer. They also give students practice in four (24) reading skills: skimming, scanning, reading for (25) comprehension, and critical reading.Skimming is quick r

11、eading for the general ideas of a passage. This kind of rapid reading is (26) when you are trying to decide if careful reading is desirable or when there is not time to read something carefully.Like skimming, (27) is also quick reading. However, in this case the search is more (28) . To scan is to r

12、ead (29) in order to locate specific information, when you read to find a particular date, or number you are scanning.Reading for thorough comprehension is (30) reading in order to understand the total meaning of the passage. (31) this level of comprehension the reader is able to summarize the autho

13、rs ideas but has not (32) made a critical evaluation of those ideas.Critical reading demands that a reader (33) judgments about what he or she reads. This kind of reading requires posting and (34) questions such as “Does my own experience support (35) of the author?“, “Do I share the authors point o

14、f view?“ and “Am I convinced by the authors arrangements and evidence?/（分数：30.00）A.usedB.usingC.to useD.useA.thatB.toC.forD.ofA.onB.inC.withD.byA.basisB.baseC.basicD.habitA.betterB.thoroughC.basicD.generalA.appreciateB.appointedC.approvedD.appropriateA.scanningB.skimmingC.thorough readingD.critical

16、ne(总题数：1，分数：12.00)George Mason must rank with John Adams and James Madison as one of the three Founding Fathers who left their personal imprint (印记) on the fundamental law of the United States. He was the principal author of the Virginia Declaration of Rights, which, because of its early formation,

17、greatly influenced other state constitutions framed during the Revolution and, through them, the Federal Bill of Rights of 1791.Yet Mason was essentially a private person with very little inclination for public office or the ordinary operation of politics beyond the country level. His appearances in

18、 the Virginia colonial and state legislatures were relatively brief, and not until 1787 did he consent to represent his state at a continental or national congress or convention. Politics was never more than a means for Masson. He was at all times a man of public spirit, hut politics was never a way

19、 of life, never for long his central concern. It took a revolution to pry him away from home and family at Gunston Hall, mobilize his skill and energy for constitutional constrnction, and transform him, in one brief moment of brilliant leadership, into a statesman whose work would endure to influenc

20、e the lives and fortunes of those “millions yet unborn“ of whom he and his generation of Americans spoke so frequently and thought so constantly.（分数：12.00）(1).The author regards George Masons personal contribution to American law as _.（分数：3.00）A.not comparable to that of Adams or MadisonB.greater th

21、an that of either Adams or MadisonC.of the same importance as that of Adams and MadisonD.second in importance only to that of Adams and Madison(2).Masons relation to the Federal Bill of Rights was one of _.（分数：3.00）A.significant but indirect influenceB.principal authorshipC.sole authorshipD.distant

22、and essentially unimportant influence(3).The passage indicates that, for Mason, political activities were _.（分数：3.00）A.undertaken only when absolutely necessaryB.a fundamental and life long preoccupationC.something he successfully avoided throughout his lifeD.something to which he always wished to d

23、evote more time and attention(4).The author indicated that Masons brilliant leadership ability _.（分数：3.00）A.was exercised throughout his lifeB.had been recognized only by the generations that followed himC.was less important historically than his brilliance as lawyerD.emerged powerfully, but for a b

24、rief time only六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Many people think a telephone is essential. But I think it is a pest and a time waster. Very often you find it impossible to escape from some idle or inquisitive chatter-box, or from somebody who wants something for nothing. If you have a telephone in your

25、own house, you will admit that it tends to ring when you least want it to ring; when you are asleep, or in the middle of a meal or a conversation, or when you are just going out, or when you are in your bath. Are you strong-minded enough to ignore it, to say to yourself, “Ah, well it will all be the

26、 same in a hundred years time?“ You are not. You think there may be some important news or message for you. I can assure you that if a message is really important it will reach you sooner or later. Have you never rushed dripping from the bath, or chewing from the table, or dazed from the bed, only t

27、o be told that you are a wrong number?But you will say, you need not have your name printed in the telephone directory, and you can have a telephone which is only usable for outgoing calls. Besides, you will say, isnt it important to have a telephone in case of sudden emergencyillness, accident, or

28、fire? Of course, you are right, but here in a thickly populated country like England one is seldom far from a telephone in case of dreadful necessity.I think perhaps I had better try to justify myself by trying to prove that what I like is good. I admit that in different circumstancesif I were a tyc

29、oon (实业界巨头), for instance, or bedridden I might find a telephone essential. But then if I were a taxi-driver I should find a car essential. Let me put it another way: there are two things for which the English seem to show particular aptitude: one is mechanical invention, the other is literature. My

30、 own business happens to be with the use of words but I see I must now stop using them. For have just been handed a slip of paper to say that somebody is waiting to speak to me on the telephone. I think I had better answer it. After all, one never knows, it may be something important.（分数：12.00）(1).W

31、hat does the work “pest“ in the second sentence of the first paragraph mean?（分数：3.00）A.Harmful thing.B.Insignificant thing.C.Troublesome thingD.Trivial thing(2).The author says he is not strong-minded enough to ignore the telephone because _.（分数：3.00）A.he hates idle talkB.it always comes at an inopp

32、ortune timeC.it might carry some important messageD.he doesnt want to be impolite to any one on the telephone(3).Which of the following statements may be considered an honor to a telephone?（分数：3.00）A.It provides a means for all kinds of talks whereas the speakers neednt come person to person with ea

33、ch other.B.It can send a message of sudden emergency conveniently.C.It is densely-installed in England.D.It is impossible to ignore the telephone when it rings.(4).The author uses the examples of a tycoon and a taxi-driver to show that _.（分数：3.00）A.different people have different ideas about the tel

34、ephoneB.high income is the precondition for the use of telephoneC.telephone is essential only to those people whose career depends on itD.working people need a telephone七、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.00)It is 2 a. m. You took too long over dinner, the coast is still a couple of hundred kilometers away

35、and it is essential to get that early morning ferry. And your car radiator pipe bas split. At times like that, the documents making up your insurance kit lying in the front of your car seem useless. The nearest phone was passed three kilometers back, and it would be reasonable to expect some delay i

36、n getting breakdown assistance when you have finally phoned through.If on the other hand, youve got a spare in the car, five minutes work should see you on your way again. The majority of breakdowns do involve minor and easily changed parts. A few basic tools and the right mix of spares are well wor

37、th the space they take up. But to sort out which ones are most likely to be needed, and to buy them, can be expensive.That is why the motoring organizations have come up with rental kits. For about 50 pence a day (slightly more to non-members) they will supply a boxed range of spares for a given ear

38、. On returning the kit the motorist pays for any that are used, plus a small fee for repacking. Deposits are about 20.It is much better, however, to reduce the risk of breakdowns by seeing that your car is properly serviced before setting out. Particularly when driving at high speed over long distan

39、ces in hot weather.Finally, it makes sense to purchase a safety triangle and an emergency plastic windscreen before leaving. Make sure all your fellow travellers know where your documents are; give one a spare set of keys, and slip into the back of your wallet a large banknote for the emergencies wh

40、ere a credit card wont do.（分数：12.00）(1).While on a motoring holiday abroad you might find yourself in difficulties because _.（分数：3.00）A.you have brought the wrong documents with youB.your ferry has just left without youC.the nearest phone is out of orderD.a repair to your car might take some time(2)

41、.In order to avoid disaster it would be wise _.（分数：3.00）A.to spend five minutes checking the car before you leaveB.to carry some emergency spares with youC.to buy a cheap set of spares before leavingD.to prevent all breakdowns from happening(3).Motoring organizations, are now offering motorists _.（分

42、数：3.00）A.a discount for becoming membersB.a box which fits nearly into most carC.a selection of parts which may be neededD.a chance to rent a car cheaply(4).Nevertheless, motorists themselves can try to prevent problems from arising by _.（分数：3.00）A.driving short distances in hot weatherB.having thei

43、r car insured for 20C.driving slowly at all timesD.making sure their car is in good working order八、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.00)You ask how to start a business? Here is an example.David Dawson, a serious mountain climber, was dissatisfied with soft iron pitons (锥锤), the only ones he was able to buy.

44、They lasted just one or two climbs, and Dawson wanted to replace them with “chrome-molys“ (铬率合金), which were harder, stronger and longer-lasting. Some climbers made them for limited distribution among friends, but they were not commercially available. So Dawson started Dawson Equipment Ltd. , a purv

45、eyor (承办商) of climbing equipment, as a one-man enterprise in Burbank, California, in 1958. He had no plan, no management experience and no advertising. He worked in a shed using a hand forge purchased with $ 800 of capital borrowed from his mother.What Dawson did have was a knowledge of the kind of

46、equipment that he needed in his own climbs, and a sense that serious climbers would follow his lead. Currently Dawson Equipment is thriving and produces over 200 products.Business opportunities are mere than ample today for the simple reason that many consumers are dissatisfied. Dawsons business sta

47、rted from his being a customer not liking what he bought. I suspect that your business will begin that way too. You know what you want to replace, improve or change. So begin where the tool breaks, the service slips or the shoe pinches.（分数：12.00）(1).Dawson was dissatisfied with soft iron pitons beca
