    A Pay Rise or Not?

    “Unless I get a rise, I’ll have a talk with the boss, Henry Manley,” George Strong said to himself. George liked his job and he liked the town he lived in, but his wife kept telling him that his pay was not enough to meet the needs of the family. That was why he was thinking of taking a job in Birmingham, a nearby city about 50 miles away. He had been offered a job in a factory there, and the pay was far better.

    George lived in Wyeford, a medium-sized town. He really liked the place and didn’t like the idea of moving somewhere else, but if he took the job in Birmingham, he would have to move his family there.

    Henry manley was the manager of a small company manufacturing electric motors. The company was in deep trouble because, among other reasons, the Japanese were selling such things at very low prices. As a result, Manley had to cut his own prices and profits as well. Otherwise he would not get any orders at all. Even then, orders were still not coming in fast enough, so that there was no money for raises(加工资)for his workers. Somehow, he had to struggle along and keep his best workers as well. He sighed. Just then the phone rang.

    His secretary told him that George Strong wanted to see him as soon as possible. Manley sighed again. He could guess what it was about. George Strong was a very young engineer. The company had no future unless it could attract and keep men like him. Manley rubbed his forehead(前额); his problems seemed endless.

    16 Henry Manley was already deeply in debt.

    A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned

    17 The job that had been offered to George Strong in Birmingham paid better.

    第3部分:概括大意与完成句子(第23~ 30题,每题1分,共8分)

    阅读下面这篇短文,短文后有2项测试任务:(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第2,3,5和6段每段选择1个正确的小标题;(2)第27~30题要求从所给的6个选项中选择4个正确选项,分别完成每个句子。请将答案涂在答题卡相应的位置上。

    Robots

    1 The most sophisticated(先进的)Japanese robots, which have vision systems and work at very high speeds, are still based on American designs. Studies of robots, particularly computer control software, are considered to be generally less advanced in Japan than in America or Europe.

    2 Although industrial robots were originally developed as devices for simply handling objects, today their commonest uses are for more skilled work like welding(焊接),spray-painting and assembling components.

    3 In Britain robot sales appropriately peaked in 1984, but have been declining ever since. This is partly because British wage rates are too low to make robots financially attractive and partly because engineers now have more experience with robots and are more aware of the difficulties of introducing them effectively.

    4 It has been calculated that a robot uses on average about 100 times more energy than a human to do an equivalent job.

    5 It is estimated that 20% of all comic book heroes in Japan are robots. This is an enormous number because comics are so popular that they make up a third of all material published in Japan.

    6 The reliability of robots is measured in their M.T.B.F.or mean time between failures. This has risen form about 250 hours in the mid-1970s to about 10,000 hours today (equivalent to working 18 hours a day for two years). One way robot manufactures have increased reliability is to test every single component they buy, instead of the normal procedure of just testing a small sample.

    7 The biggest single benefit of introducing robots claimed by Japanese companies is that they increase quality control. One programmed, the robots can work more accurately and consistently than humans, who can get tired and bored. 

    A Ongoing Research

    B Extension of Use

    C Robot Heroes

    D Greater Reliability

    E Falling Demand

    F Hidden Danger

    23 Paragraph 2_______________

    24 Paragraph 3_______________

    25 Paragraph 5_______________

    26 Paragraph 6_______________

    27 Even the most sophisticated Japanese robots are____________________

    28 Robots are less popular in Britain to day partly because__________________

    29 One disadvantage of using robots is that they consume_________________

    30 The use of robots increases_____________

    A too much energy

    B based on American designs

    C they are too costly

    D they are not reliable

    E quality control F free of charge

    The use of robots increases_____________

    第4部分:阅读理解(第31~45题,每题3分,共45分)

    下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题,每道题后面有4个选项。请根据文章的内容,从每题所给的4个选项中选择个最佳答案,涂在答题卡相应的位置上。

    第一篇 what Makes a Soccer Player Great?

    Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way—was it through training and practice, or are great players’ born, not made”? First, these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past---players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate(效仿).In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup—three from South America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team—or a really great player—from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at game at the age of three or four.

    Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighbourhood(聚居区)—a poor, crowded area where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool which produced the Beatles(甲壳虫乐队),had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags(破布). And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums(贫民窟)of Belfast.

    All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.

    31 According to the author, which of the following statements is true?

    A Great soccer players are born, not made.

    B Truly great players are rare.

    C Only six countries have ever had famous soccer stars.

    D Soccer is the least popular sport in North America and Asia

    32 The word ”tricks” at the end of Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to

    A “experience”

    B “cheating”

    C “skills”

    D “training”

    33 Pele is cited as an example in the second paragraph to illustrate that

    A famous soccer players live in slum areas

    B people in poor areas are born with some unique quality

    C children in poor areas start playing football at the age of 3 or 4

    D many great soccer players come from poor areas

    34 In the last paragraph the statement “only one became Pele” indicates that

    A Pele is the greatest soccer player

    B the greatest players are born with some unique quality

    C Pele’s birthplace sets him apart from all the other players

    D the greatest players practice with “balls” made of rags

    35 The author attributes a soccer player’s success to all the following factors EXCEPT

    A his family background

    B his neighbourhood.

    C his practice.

    D his height

    第二篇 New Foods and the New World

    In the last 500 years, nothing about people---not their clothes, ideas, or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree(可可树)by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.

    The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine(饥荒)”of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to leave their homeland and move to America.

    There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.

    According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.

    36 According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years?

    A Food

    B Clothing

    C Ideology

    D Language

    37 “some” in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to

    A some cocoa trees

    B some chocolate drinks.

    C some shops

    D some South American Indians

    38 Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine” because

    A they were so dependent on potatoes that they refused to eat anything else

    B they were forced to leave their homeland and move to America

    C the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing potatoes

    D the potato harvest was bad

    39 Which country is the largest coffee producer?

    A Brazil

    B Colombia

    C Ethiopia

    E Egypt

    40 Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage?

    A. One third of the world’s population drinks coffee.

    B. Coffee is native to Colombia

    C. Coffee can keep one awake.

    D. Coffee drinks were first made by Arabs.

    第三篇 Up in Smoke

    I began to smoke when I was in high school. In fact, I remember the evening I was at a girlfriend’s house, and we were watching a movie—a terribly romantic movie. He (the hero of the movie) was in love, she (his lady) was beautiful, and they were both smoking. My friend had only two cigarettes from a pack in her mother’s purse, and she gave one to me. It was my first time.

    My parents didn’t care much. They both smoked, and my older brother did too. My mother told me that smokers don’t grow tall, but I was already5’6”(taller than most of the boys in my class), so I was happy to hear that “fact”. In school, the teachers talked against smoking, but the cigarette advertisements were so exciting. The men in the ads were so good-looking and so successful, and the women were-well, they were beautiful and sophisticated(老于世故的).

    I read a book called how to stop smoking. The writer said that smoking wastes time, and that cigarettes cost a lot of money. “So what?” I thought, the book didn’t say that smoking can take away years of your life. But ten years later, everyone began to hear about the negative effects of cigarette smoke: lung disease, cancer, and heart problems. After that, there was a health warning on every pack of cigarettes. I didn’t pay much attention to the reports and warnings. I felt healthy, and I thought I was taking good care of myself.

    Then two events changed my mind. First, I started to cough. I thought it was just a cold, but it didn’t get better. Second, my brother got lung cancer. He got sicker and sicker. My brother and I used to smoke cigarettes together over twenty years age, and we smoked our last cigarettes together the day before he died. I sat with him in his hospital room, and I decided to quit. “NO more cigarettes, ever,” I said to myself.

    However, it was very hard to stop, Nicotine(尼古丁)is a drug; as a result, cigarettes cause a powerful addiction. I tried several times to quit on my own—without success. I made excuses. I told myself: Smoking helps me keep my figure—i.e. I don’t gain weight when I smoke. Smoking not only relaxes me but it also helps me think clearly. I’m a free, liberated woman. I can smoke when I want to.

    Finally, I ran out of excuses—I might say my excuses went up in smoke. I joined the “Stop Smoking” program at the local hospital, which also ended up in failure.

    41 How the writer started smoking shows the powerful influence of

    A educational institutions

    B one’s social status

    C the mass media

    D public opinions

    42 The “fact” in Paragraph 2 refers to

    A her admiration for the men in the ads

    B her mother’s warning that smokers don’t grow tall

    C her height of 5’6”

    D the teachers’ negative attitude towards smoking

    43 The book called How to Stop Smoking

    A cost the writer a lot of time to read

    B was not taken seriously by the writer

    C warned the reader of the risk of lung cancer.

    D left the writer in confusion

    44 The writer decided to quit smoking partly because

    A she could not afford any more cigarettes.

    B her doctor had advised her to do so

    C her brother had given up smoking.

    D she had started to cough

    45 The writer found it hard to quit smoking because

    A she had been addicted to nicotine.

    B she had been putting on weight.

    C she could not think clearly.

    D she was an independent woman.
