14、harging四、 Reading Comprehens(总题数：0，分数：0.00)五、Passage One(总题数：1，分数：12.00)One friend once said to me, “Do you know that most college students cant even put semi-colons(分号) in the right place?“ Emphatic voices like his have recently made writing courses popular, strangely popular because of their hard-

15、nosed attitude toward correct writing. Most administrators and teachers extend this medicinal metaphor (隐喻), they agree that students are suffering from a serious disease. Many tests identify increasing numbers of student writers as skills cripples(跛子), and they need treatment. Remedial courses are

16、given every- where. More writing labs are appearing and expanding.Many students are wining to believe that there is really something wrong with them. More students than ever before tell me and my colleagues that they are indeed bad writers and need lots of help with grammar and punctuation. I feel l

17、ike a doctor, my job is to diagnose (诊断) the disease and prescribe cures whenever I read student writing. It would be easy enough for me to circle spelling errors, cross out unnecessary commas, line out wordy sentences. And knowing that this sort of marking can sting, I would of course write, onto t

18、he end of the paper, some- thing about how I know the student really tried hard, something about his rich imagination or his clear potential for doing well.But I wonder whether all these well-intentioned scrawls (潦草写几句话) would do little more than confirm my students fears about how crippled he is.（分

22、clearD.A teacher had better point out the way for each student to improve his writing六、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：12.00)As protector of her familys health, the poineer woman confronted situations she never imagined before crossing the Mississippi. Few women came West prepared to deal with desert sunburn,

23、rattlesnake bites, or arrow wounds. Even when doctors were available, they were of- ten no more knowledgeable than their patients. And most patent (专利) medicines were no more reliable than the itinerant (巡游) merchants who sold them.In certain cases, a woman could draw upon the folk wisdom and remedi

24、es she had learned back home; Western mosquitoes, for example, proved to be as repelled by a paste of vinegar and salt as were their Eastern cousins. More often, however, a woman was guided only by her own ingenuity in concocting (调制的) tonics (补药), powders, poisons, and polishes from whatever she ha

25、d at land: salt made a passable toothpaste, gunpowder was applied to wants, and turpentine to open cuts, goose grease, skunk oil, and the ever present lard were basic liniments; medicinal teas and tonics were brewed from sunflower seeds and roots.（分数：12.00）(1).Which of the following statements best

27、 to the passage, why were doctors in the West sometimes unable to help their patients?（分数：3.00）A.They did not know how to treat the unfamiliar illnesses.B.They were more interested in establishing practices in the cities.C.They were more concerned with doing research than with treating patients.D.Th

29、the pioneers referred to in the passage were originally from where in the United States?（分数：3.00）A.The desert.B.The West.C.The State of Mississippi.D.The East.七、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.00)There is much discussion today about whether economic growth is desirable. At an earlier period, our desire fo

30、r material wealth may have been justified. Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems. Even though we have good intentions, we may be producing too much, too fast.Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down. They believe that society is approachi

31、ng certain limits on growth. These include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible negative effects of industry on the natural environment, and the continuing increase in the worlds population. As society reaches these limits, economic growth can no longer continue, and th9 quality of li

32、fe will decrease.People who want more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world. These proponents of economic growth believe that only more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the wo

33、rld. Furthermore, they argue that only continued growth can provide the financial resources required to protect our natural surroudings from industrialization.This debate over the desirability of continued economic growth is of vital importance to business and industry. If those who argue against ec

34、onomic growth are correct, the problems they mention cannot be ignored. To find a solution, economists and the business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another.（分数：12.00）(1).According to those who argue against economic growth we must slow down fo

35、r the following reasons EXCEPT that _.（分数：3.00）A.our natural surroundings are in danger of being destroyed by industryB.the fixed supply of natural resources marks a point beyond which economic growth cannot continueC.the world population is ever increasingD.more efforts should be made to improve th

36、e quality of our material life(2).Those who want more economic growth believe that continued economic growth _.（分数：3.00）A.is essential to the well-being of society as a wholeB.can provide the solution to many of our social problems todayC.can protect our environment from being polluted by industryD.

37、can provide us with more natural resources for industrialization(3).We may infer from the context that “proponents“ (Par（分数：3.00）A.3) most probably means _.A. arguments in support of somethingB. disagreementsC. people who argue for somethingD. people who argue against something(4).The passage is mai

38、nly about _.（分数：3.00）A.the contradiction between economists and the business communityB.the present debate on economic growthC.the advantages and disadvantages of economic growthD.the importance of the debate on economic growth八、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Sequoyab was a young Cherokee Indian, son o

39、f a white trader and an Indian Squaw (北美印第安女人). At an early age, he became fascinated by “tile talking leaf“, an expression that he used to describe the white mans written records. Although many believe this “talking leaf“ to be a gift from tile Great Spirit, Sequoyah refused to accept that theory.

40、Like other Indians of tile period, he was illiterate, but his determination to remedy tile situation led to the invention of a unique 86 character alphabet based on the sound patterns that he heard.His family and friends thought him mad, but while recuperating (恢复) from a hunting accident, he dilige

41、ntly and independently set out to create a form of communication for his own people as well as for other Indians. In 1821, after twelve years of work, he had successfully developed a written language that would enable thousands of Indians to read and write.Sequoyahs desire to preserve words and even

42、ts for later generation has caused him to be remembered among the important inventors. The giant redwood trees of California, called “sequoias (红杉)“ in his honor, will further imprint his name in history.（分数：12.00）(1).What is the most important reason that Sequoyah will be remembered?（分数：3.00）A.Cali

43、fornia redwoods were named in his honor.B.He was illiterate.C.He created a unique alphabet.D.He recovered from his madness and helped mankin(2).How did Sequoyah s family react to his idea of developing his own “talking leaf“ ?（分数：3.00）A.They arranged for his hunting accident.B.They thought he was cr

But when British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of “family“ in its narrow, peculiarly

46、European sense of mother, father and children living together alone in their own house as an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and independent family-hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life. For both the man and the woman, mar

47、riage means leaving ones parents and starting ones own life. The mans first duty Will then be to his wife, and the wifes to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financial support, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibility and theirs a

48、lone. Neither the wifes parents nor the husbands, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts or uncles, have any right to interfere with themthey are their own masters.Readers of novels like Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times marriage among wealthy families were arranged by th

49、e girls parents, that is, it was the parents duty to find a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement to lead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected and maintained in the parents home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in their giving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry. It is very different today. Most girl
