Weddings ceremonies in the United States vary as much as the people do. But many weddings, no matter where or how they are performed, include certain traditional customs. For instance, the bride and groom often exchange rings at the ceremony. The rings are usually worn on the fourth finger of the left hand, and are exchanged in the middle of the ceremony. Today, the ring shows the couple’s love for one another.

After the ceremony, the couple is often showered with handfuls of uncooked rice by friends and family. Rice, as we know, shows productivity and harvest. And then, there is often a party, where the food is so plentiful that it almost takes the attention away from the people. Soon the bride stands in the center of the room, often on a chair, and throws her flowers to the unmarried women at the party. Tradition says that whoever catches the flowers will be the next bride. Some women eagerly try to catch the flower; others shy away.

And then it is time for the bride and groom to set off the tradition of a honeymoon, a trip after the wedding. The trip nowadays varies greatly by wealth, time and preference. Sometimes the couple will spend a single night at a nearby hotel; or they may spend two weeks at a faraway foreign city as well.

The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with the label: "store in the refrigerator".

In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily. The milkman came daily, the grocer, the butcher, the baker, and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week. The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus(剩余的) bread and milk became all kinds of cakes. Nothing was wasted, and we were never troubled by rotten food. Thirty years on, food deliveries have ceased; fresh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.

The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation.

A vast way of well-tried techniques already existed — natural cooling, drying, smoking, salting, sugaring, bottling ...

What refrigeration did promote was marketing — marketing hardware and electricity, marketing

soft drinks, marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price.

Consequently, most of the world's fridges are to be found, not in the tropics where they might prove useful, but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary. Every winter, millions of fridges hum away(不断地嗡嗡作响) continuously, and at vast expense, busily maintain an artificially-cooled space inside and artificially-heated house —while outside, nature provides the desired temperature free of charge.

The fridge's effect upon the environment has been evident, while its contribution to human happiness has been insignificant. If you don't believe me, try it yourself, invest in a food cabinet

(橱柜)and turn off your fridge next winter. You may miss the hamburgers, but at least you’ll

get rid of that terrible hum.

6. The statement “In my fridgeless Fifties childhood, I was fed well and healthily.” (Para. 2) suggest that____________ .

A. the author was well-fed and healthy even without a fridge in his fifties

B. the author was not accustomed to using fridges even in his fifties

C. there was no fridge in the author's home in the 1950s

D. the fridge was in its early stage of development in the 1950s

7. Why does the author say that nothing was wasted before the invention of fridges?

A. People would not buy more food than was necessary.

B. Food was delivered to people two or three times a week.

C. Food was sold fresh and did not get rotten easily.

D. People had effective ways to preserve their food.

8. Who benefited the least from fridges according to the author?

A. Inventors.

B. Consumers.

C. Manufacturers.

D. Traveling salesmen(巡回推销员).

9. Which of the following phrases in Para.5 indicates the fridge's negative effect on the environment?

A. "Hum away continuously".

B. "Climatically almost unnecessary".

3

C. "Artificially-cooled space".

D. "With mild temperatures".

10. What is the author's overall attitude toward fridges?

A. Neutral.

B. Critical.

C. Objective.

D. Compromising.

Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completes a university degree or diploma course could find a good career quite easily. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs.

Job seekers first have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes, or the relative importance to themselves of such matters as money, security, leadership and caring for others.

The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how

the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.

Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors.

When graduates are asked to attend for interview, they should prepare properly by finding out

all they can about the prospective employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also obviously important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer.

There will always be good career opportunities for people with ability, skills and determination;

the secret to securing a good job is to be one of them.

11. In Para.1, the sentence "... those days are gone, even in Hong Kong ..." suggest that____________.

A. in the past, finding a good career was easier in Hong Kong than elsewhere

B. nowadays, everyone in Hong Kong has an equal chance of finding a good career

C. it used to be harder to find a good job in Hong Kong than in other countries

D. Hong Kong is no longer the good place for finding jobs

12. The word "relative" in Para. 2 could best be replaced by "____________".

A. family

B. comparative

C. considerable

D. slight

13. The advice given in the first sentence of Para.3 is to____________.

A. find out what jobs are available and the opportunities for future promotion

B. examine the careers available and how these will be affected in the future

C. look at the information on, and probable future location of, various careers

D. study the opportunities and the kinds of training that will be available

14. The word "prospective" in Para. 5 is closest in meaning to "____________".

A. generous

B. reasonable

4

C. future

D. ambitious

15. In Para.5, the writer seems to suggest that____________.

A. interviewees should ask a question if they can't think of an answer

B. pretending to understand a question is better than giving an unsuitable answer

C. it is better for interviewees to be honest than to pretend to understand

D. it is not a good idea for interviewees to be completely honest in their answers

Dream is a story that a person “watches” or even takes part in during sleep. Dream events are imaginary, but they are related to real experiences and needs in the dreamer’s life. They seem re al while they are taking place. Some dreams are pleasant, others are annoying, and still others are frightening.

Everyone dreams, but some persons never recall dreaming. Others remember only a little about a dream they had just before awakening and nothing about earlier dreams. No one recalls all his dreams.

Dreams involve little logical thought. In most dreams, the dreamer cannot control what happens to him. The story may be confusing, and things happen that would not happen in real life. People see in most dreams, but they may also hear, smell, touch, and taste in their dreams. Most dreams occur in color, but persons who have been blind since birth do not see at all in dreams.

Dreams are a product of the sleeper’s mind. They include events and feelings tha t he has experienced. Most dreams are related to events of the day before the dream and strong wishes of the dreamer. Many minor incidents of the hours before sleep appear in dreams. Few events more than two days old turn up. Deep wishes or fears——especially those held since childhood——often appear in dreams, and many dreams fulfill such wishes. Events in the sleeper’s surrounding——a loud noise, for example, may become part of a dream, but they do not cause dreams.

Some dreams involve deep feelings that a person may not realize he has. Psychiatrists(精神病医生) often use material from a patient’s dreams to help the person understand himself better.

Dreaming may help maintain good learning ability, memory, and emotional adjustment. People who get plenty of sleep——but are awakened each time they begin to dream——become anxious and restless.

1. This passage is mainly about _________.

A. why we dream during sleep

B. how we dream during sleep

C. what dreams are

D. what benefits dreams bring to people

A. the sleeper’s wishes

A. Dream is a confusing story which involves little logic thought

B. Dream is related to the dream er’s real life.

C. Dream is an imaginary store which seems real while taking place.

D. Dream involves events that always happen in real life.

4. This passage suggests that psychiatrists are _________.

A. trying to help the dreamer recall his earlier dreams

8

B. trying to make the sleeper dream logically

C. studying the benefits of dreams

D. helping the sleeper fulfill his dream

5. We may infer from the passage that dreaming _______.

A. is beneficial to people

B. disturbs people’s life

For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world's greatest dramatist (剧作家). Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare's writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.

Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.

There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness, and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare's day.

6. English people _______.

A. have never discussed who is the world's greatest dramatist

B. never discuss any issue concerning the world's greatest dramatist

C. are sure who is the world's greatest dramatist

D. do not care who is the world's greatest poet and dramatist

7. Every Englishman knows _______.

A. mote or less about Shakespeare

B. Shakespeare, but only slightly

C. all Shakespeare's writings

D. only the name of the greatest English writer

8. Which of the following is true?

A. We use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare's writings.

B. Shakespeare's writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.

C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origins of the words they use.

D. All the words people use are taken from the writings of Shakespeare.

9. What does the word "proverb" mean?

A. Familiar sayings.

B. Shakespeare's plays.

C. Complaints.

D. Actors and actresses.

10. Why is it worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English?

A. English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare's time.

B. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of the English language.

C. English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare's time.

D. Beginners may have difficulty learning some aspects of English usage.

Although America is such a huge country, traveling is really very quick and easy. There are three ways to get across the country without a car:planes, trains and buses. Air travel is the most expensive of the three but in many ways the easiest and most comfortable. There are hundreds of flights a day crossing the country, and it is easy to make a reservation(预订). Traveling by train is cheaper than by airplane. But it costs more than by bus and there are few passenger(旅客)trains. On the trains there are dining cars and bars where meals are served quickly. If you are spending the night on the train you can pay for a "roomette" which is a small room with a bed and a toilet. The most inexpensive way to travel is by bus. There are fast bus services between cities, for example, the Greyhound Bus Service. You can buy special tickets that allow you unlimited travel for a certain period of time. In this way you can stop along the way to visit the places that interest you most.

If you need to travel long distances frequently, however, you'll have to decide which way is the most suitable for you. Hardly anyone can positively enjoy sitting in a train for more than a few hours. It is almost impossible to take your mind off the journey. Reading is only a partial solution. During the day, sleep comes in snatches(瞬间). At night, when you really wish to go to sleep, you rarely manage to do so. Inevitably you arrive at you destination almost exhausted. Long car journeys are even less pleasant, for it is quite impossible even to read. On motorways you can, at least, travel safely at high speeds, but the greater part of the journey is spent on narrow, bumpy roads that are crowded with traffic.

By comparison, trip by sea offers a great variety of civilized comforts. You can stretch your legs on the spacious decks(甲板),play games, swim, meet interesting people and enjoy good food. However, if the sea is rough, you are likely to get seasick. Even if you travel in ideal weather, sea journeys take a long time.

11. If you want to travel easily and comfortably, you should choose to go____________.

A. by sea

B. by plane

C. by train

D. by bus

12. Compared with air travel, traveling by train____________.

A. is cheap but comfortable

B. is not so easily available

C. offer better and quicker meals

D. requires you to pay for a "roomette"

13.Which of the following is the advantage of bus service?

A. It's the cheapest and least comfortable way of traveling.

B. It allows passengers to travel between different cities.

C. It sells special tickets that make it convenient for passengers to take.

D. It travels safely at high speeds.

14.The second paragraph mainly talks about____________.

A. the way of traveling you had better choose

B. what you can do on your journey to kill the time

C. reading and sleep on your journey when you travel by train and by bus

D. the disadvantages of traveling by train and by bus

15.Which of the following is NOT mentioned about trip by sea?

A. You can find more space to stretch yourself.

10

B. You have different choices to enjoy yourself.

C. You should have enough time and prepare for seasickness.

Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are that you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.

Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may say that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what the senses — in this case our eyes — tell us.

Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.

1.What does the passage mainly tell us?

A. Perceiving has nothing to do with seeing.

B. Perceiving differs from seeing.

C. Seeing is closely connected to perceiving.

D. Seeing has much to do with perceiving.

A. with four children following closely behind her

B. with four children tied to each other with a rope

C. with four children dragging a rope held by her

D. with four children dragged in a small cart

3.According to the passage, perceiving is an action ____________.

A. that tells us information through our eyes

B. that gives us senses in the mind

C. that explains what our senses tell us

D. that makes our mind different

4.The psychologists are trying to draw their conclusion____________.

A. by asking different people to tell how they perceive the same scene

B. by using a scientific approach in setting up their experiments

C. by determining how a person experiences the world around him

D. by measuring and charting the results of many experiments

5. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A. Different people may perceive the same scene in a different way.

B. That a policeman gives a motorist a ticket means the motorist is fined.

C. No people share the same perception when they are asked to see the same scene.

D. The psychologists can control all of the factors in their experiments.

The average family spends about one-sixth of its income on food. Because food is expensive, it is important to spend money wisely when you shop. Here are some hints to help you shop better.

Buy only the food that you need. There are several ways to avoid buying extra food. First, make a shopping list before you go to the store. Then when you are at the store, follow your list carefully. Furthermore, do not go shopping if you are hungry. When you are hungry, food looks very delicious

14

and you want to buy more than you need. Finally, go shopping alone if you can. If you shop with young children, they often ask you to buy unnecessary food like candy.

When you have a selection, choose the least expensive brand of a product. There are three points

to remember when you buy a can of tomatoes, for example. First, look at the advertisements in the newspaper to see if your supermarket is having a special on canned tomatoes. In addition, when you

are in the store you should check the price per pound of tomatoes. Sometimes you save money if you

buy the larger size can; sometimes, however, you do not. Remember that a grade A product or a more expensive product is not necessarily more healthful than a grade B or less expensive product. Grade

A tomatoes may look better, but all canned tomatoes have the same nutrients.

Shoppers seem to have special difficulties when they buy fresh fruits and vegetables. There are several things to consider when buying fresh foods. Because fresh foods spoil if not used, you have

to buy the correct amount for the number of people you are serving. Remember that a pound of peas

in their pod is only two to three servings, but a pound of string beans is enough for six servings.

In addition, plan to use fresh foods that are in season because fresh foods are generally less expensive when they are in season. Finally, choose fruits and vegetables that have a bright, fresh color. A good color is often a sign that the food has a lot of vitamins. Careful shoppers try to get as many nutrients as they can for each dollar.

6. The passage mainly tells us____________.

A. how to be a good housekeeper

B. how to get more nutrients with less money

C. how the average family should spend its money

D. how to spend money wisely on food

7.The disadvantage of going shopping when one is hungry is that____________.

A. one will have a better appetite

B. one will like delicious food more

C. one will buy more food than one can eat

D. one will buy unnecessary food like candy

8.If you are not sure which to choose because there are different brands of the same food, remember____________.

A. to look for a discount on canned tomatoes

B. to check the price per pound of tomatoes

C. to buy the larger size to save money

D. that the more expensive does not necessarily do more good to health

9.When one buys fresh fruits and vegetables, all the following should be avoided EXCEPT____________.

A. paying more attention to nutrition than to price

B. buying a larger amount of fruits and vegetables than necessary

C. preferring fresh fruits and vegetables that are out of season

D. choosing fruits and vegetables that do not look bright

Like many of my generation, I have a weakness for hero worship. At some point, however, we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them. This leads us to ask: What is a hero?

Despite huge differences in cultures, heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.

A hero does something worth talking about. A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen. But a hero goes beyond mere fame.

Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves. Like high-voltage transformers (变压器), heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.

The hero lives a life worthy of imitation. Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth, enthusiasm, and meaning. A sure test for would-be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame, they may be famous persons but not heroes. Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous, but who would claim that their fans find life more meaningful?

Heroes are catalysts (催化剂) for change. They have a vision from the mountaintop. They have the skill and the charm to move the masses. They create new possibilities. Without Gandhi, India might still be part of the British Empire. Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King, Jr., we might still have segregated (隔离的) buses, restaurants, and parks. It may be possible for large-scale change to take place without leaders with attractive personalities, but the pace of change would be slow, the vision uncertain, and the committee meetings endless.

11.What does the first sentence "Like many of my generation, I have a weakness for hero worship." in the first paragraph mean?

A. Many of my generation and I are not strong enough to be heroes.

B. Many of my generation and I are too weak to worship heroes.

C. Many of my generation and I do not worship heroes.

D. Many of my generation and I worship heroes.

12. Which of the following is NOT one of heroes' characteristics?

A. Doing something worth talking about.

B. Having a story of adventure to tell.

C. Listening to the opinions of his community.

D. Serving powers or principles larger than themselves.

13.According to the fourth paragraph, in what sense are heroes like high-voltage transformers?

A. They instruct and inspire different cultures with their deeds.

B. They set very good examples for ordinary people to follow.

C. Their characteristics give ordinary people strength and confidence.

D. They receive high energy and transform it into heroic action.

14.In which of the following aspects famous people are different from heroes?

A. Heroes go beyond mere fame.

B. Famous people serve only their own fame.

C. They are willing to live different lives.

D. Both A and B.

15. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that____________.

A. heroes quicken the speed of historical changes

B. heroes change possibilities into reality

16

Like other "aholics", the workaholic has an unhealthy addiction. In this case, the addiction is for work, career, or a belief that they are "the only one who can do the job right". Without this consuming focus, the workaholic may believe he's a failure or has little worth. Often, this is a sign of insecurity or having priorities out of order.

Workaholics will spend most of their lives at work or taking work home with them. They will often have little time for personal lives — family, hobbies, or relaxation. Having a balance is not just a preferable desire; it is needed for overall mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional health.

译文:就像其他的“狂”的工作狂,有不良嗜好。在这种情况下,成瘾是工作,职业,或认为他们是“只

有一个人可以做的工作权利”。没有了这种强烈的专注,工作狂可能认为自己是个失败者或没有多大价值。通常,这是一个不安的信号或优先顺序。

工作狂会花费他们的大部分时间生活在工作或将工作带回家。他们通常很少有时间为个人生活,家庭,爱好,或放松。有一个平衡的不仅仅是一个可取的愿望;它是需要整体的心理,身体,精神,和情绪健康。
