Passage 1
Today Newton is a very clean place. Many years ago, however, there were millions of rats in it. They attacked the cats and dogs. Sometimes a great number of them knocked down a man or woman walking home at night. The rats were very large in size and they harmed many people.

After two weeks there were not many rats in the city, but people still brought many rats to the Government office. The Government officer thought that people were stealing dad rats from the pile. He ordered his men to dig a deep hole and put the rats in it.

passage 2
Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person’s conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, “You’re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it’s not true.” It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.
Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let’s not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.
1. What does the author try to prove by citing “what kind of impression am I making?” (Para. 1)

B. People’s shyness make them care too much about their appearance and actions.

D. Shy people think they are different from others.
2. According to the writer, self-awareness is _______.
A. a good quality
B. the cause of unhappiness
C. harmful to people
D. a weak point of shy people
3. That shy people react to a compliment in such a way is _______.
A. good B. unreal
C. very reasonable D. harmful
4. Which of the following statements is true, according to the passage?
A. Shyness helps us to develop our potential.
B. Shyness enables us to understand ourselves better.
C. Shyness can block our chances for a rich life.
D. Shyness has nothing to do with lack of self-esteem.
5. It can be inferred from the passage that shy people _______.
A. should find more of their weakness
B. should understand themselves in the right way
C. had better ignore their weakness
D. can get rid of their shyness while maintaining low self-esteem
Passage 3
A poor young artist came to the gate of the subway station. He put his hat on the ground and took out a large piece of paper and laid it on the ground. Then he adjusted the violin and began playing.
Before long, the young violinist was surrounded with people, who were all attracted by the words on that paper. It said, “Last night, a gentleman named George Sang put an important thing into my hat by mistake. Please come to claim it soon.”
After about half an hour, a middle-aged man ran there in a hurry and rushed through the crowd to the violinist and grabbed his shoulders and said, “Yes, it’s you. You did come here. I knew that you’re an honest man and would certainly come here.”
The story turned out to be this :George Sang bought a lottery ticket a few days ago. The awards opened yesterday and he won a prize of $500,000. So he felt very happy and he took out 50 dollars for the wonderful music played by the young man. However the lottery ticket was also thrown in.
Later someone asked the violinist: “At that time you needed to pay the tuition fee and had to play the violin every day to make the money. Then why didn’t you take the lottery ticket for yourself?”
The violinist said, “Although I don’t have much money, I live happily; but if I lose honesty I won’t be happy forever.”
Through our lives, we can gain a lot and lose so much. But being honest should always be with us. If we bear ourselves in a deceptive and dishonest way, we may succeed temporarily. However, from the long-term view, we will be a loser. Such people are just like the water on the mountain. It stands high above the masses at the beginning, but gradually it comes down inch by inch and loses the chance of going up.

A. He was playing the violin in the street.
B. He was begging money in public.
C. He was waiting for someone who has lost money.
D. He has written something strange on paper in front of him.
3. Why did the violinist return the lottery to George?
A. He was honest and wantesd to be happy.
B. He was wealthy and did not need the money.
B. He hoped to get some reward from George.
D. He was forced to give the money back to George by the police.
4. The underlined word in the first paragraph means_______.

C. underpass D.building
5. What kind of people can be compared to the water on the mountain?
A. intelligent people B. cunning people
C. political people D. dishonest people
Passage 4
The origin of language is a mystery. All we know is that men, unlike animals, invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
1. The origin of language is ____.
A. a legend handed down from the past
B. a matter that is hidden or secret
C. a question difficult to answer
D. a problem not yet solved
2. What is true about words?
A. They are used to express feelings only.
B. They are simply sounds.
C. They can not be written down.
D. They are mysterious.
3. The real power of words consists in their ____.
A. properties B. characteristics
C. peculiarity D. representative function
4. By “association” in the last paragraph, the author means ____.
A. a special quality B. a joining of ideas in the mind
C. an appearance which is puzzling D. a strange feature
5. Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?
A. He is no more than a master of words.
B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.
C. He can move men to tears.
D. His style is always charming.
Passage 5
Earth is a planet composed of rock and metal. Along with water, all life on earth requires oxygen, carbon, phosphorus, nitrogen and hydrogen. We are often referred to as carbon-based life forms. It is believed that these basic materials would be needed for the emergence of life elsewhere in the universe but some scientists argue otherwise, suggesting that life could form from different elements and materials.
Life on Earth shows a wide diversity in forms, yet many contain basic similarities.
Life is an ongoing process so it seems probable that life exists elsewhere in the universe in a multitude of different forms and stages of progression. Just as it is possible that life exists elsewhere in forms similar to the bacteria and viruses found on Earth, it is also likely that life forms may exist that are more advanced than humans. Even though many planets have harsh conditions in which life as we know it would not be able to exist, we should keep in mind that there are many creatures on Earth that can exist in harsh climatic conditions. Life could exist in the smallest organic molecules or in a form completely unknown to humanity that could go totally unrecognized. We assume that life could not exist on the giant gaseous planets, but it could very well be possible that some form of life completely beyond the scope of our imaginations may exist.
We don't know whether life in any form exists on other planets elsewhere in the universe. Although we have made great strides in our search for extraterrestrial life and the exploration of space our technology is still in its infancy in the cosmic scheme of things.
1. The scientists speculated that there may be life on Mars ______.
A. because of its temperature
B. because of the existence of water on it
C. because of its thin atmosphere
D. because it is similar to Earth in many ways
2. What does the word “diversity” mean in Para. 2?
A. Similarity. B. Variety.
C. Possibility. D. Change.
3. Which sentence is NOT true according to the passage?
A. It seems possible that life exists elsewhere in the universe.
B. It is likely that there are life forms which are more advanced than humans.
C. There can't be lives elsewhere in the universe because many planets have harsh conditions.
D. There are much to be explored and found for the galactic exploration.
4. What does the expression “in its infancy” mean in Para. 4?
A. Becoming an infant. B. At young age.
C. In the process of growing up. D. In the initial stage.
5. What's the author's attitude towards the possibility of life on other planets?
A. Positive. B. Negative.
C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
Passage 6
In choosing a friend, one should be very careful. A good friend can help you study. You can have fun together and make each other happy. Sometimes you will meet a fair weather friend. They will be with you as long as you have money or luck, but when you are down, they will run away. How do I know when I have found a good friend? I look for certain qualities of character, especially understanding, honesty and reliability .
A good friend, above all else, tries to understand how another person is feeling. He is not quick to judge. Instead, he tries to learn from others. He puts himself in the other person’s place, and he tries to think of ways to be helpful. He is also a good listener.
At the same time, a good friend is honest. He does not look for faults in others. He notices their good points. In short, a friend will try to understand me and accept me.
Another quality of a friend is reliability. I can always depend on a good friend. If he tells me he will meet me somewhere at a certain time, I can be sure that he will be there. If I need a favor, he will do his best to help me. If I am in trouble, he will not run away from me.
When I meet someone who is reliable, honest, and understanding, I know I’ve found a friend!

If you travel by air across the center of Africa or South America, you fly over forests for thousands of kilometers. These great forests are the oceans of trees. There are thousands and thousands of different kinds of plants and animals.
However, the world’s forests are getting smaller all the time. We are cutting down the trees because we need wood, and we need more farmland. Some people say that there will not be any forests like these in 20 or 30 years. What will happen if they disappear?
If we cut down our forests, a lot of plants and animals will disappear from the world. In a lot of places the new farmland will soon look like the old deserts. Crops will not grow there.
