  Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality(合理性), but when it comes to my college education, I am an idealist(理想主义者)and a 36 . In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, 37 , any sensible student with my aims 38 have chosen a college with a large engineering department, famous 39 and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that’s not what I did.
  I 40 to study engineering at a small liberal-arts (文科) university that doesn’t even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a 41 choice; I came here for more noble reasons.

I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who weren’t studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice.

  Now I’m not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideal crashed into 47 , as all noble ideals 48 do. After three years of struggling to 49 math, physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have 50 there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile (协调) engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.
  The reality that has 51 my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts 52 don’t mix as easily as I 53 in high school. Individually(个别地)they 54 a person in very different ways; 55 they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.

  A
  As humans, we are also considered as animals sometimes! But unlike other animals, we have not had to fit the environment in which we live. Instead, we have been the shaper (改造者) of our environment and explorer of nature. While other animals must find a home, we have created our home wherever we are living. We have fitted ourselves in a variety of environments.
  Our skill at doing this has been due to our imagination, creativity and enthusiasm. If we chose to live in the desert, we learned how to save water, build a home among the rocks and mountains and depend on animals rather than vegetables for our food. Sometimes it was necessary for us to follow the animals as they moved, in order not to lose our source of food.
  Living in a place where there was plenty of rain and mild temperatures, we learned that we could plant a greater variety of crops, raise a few animals in a smaller, more contained area and not have to move our home. We have been able to live wherever we choose because we have not accepted the limitations of a particular environment, or rather, we have made the environment fit our needs.
  56. Humans can live where they want to because they _________.
  A. have enough materials to build homes
  B. can use what exists in nature to fit their needs
  C. have plenty of food from plants and animals everywhere
  D. can find a home easily
  57. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
  A. Animals had to fit their environment.
  B. People who lived in the desert mainly ate meat.
  C. Humans always had to follow the animals for food.
  D. Environment was made to fit human needs.
  58. The underlined part “mild temperatures ” means it is__________.
  A. cold B. hot
  C. sometimes cold and sometimes hot D. neither too cold nor too hot
  59.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
  A. Humans and Nature.
  B. Animals and Environments.
  C. Protecting Nature.
  D. Humans and Animals.
  B
  A new computer treatment is being used to deal with obesity (肥胖) in children.
  Connected to a small dining set, consisting of scales and a plate, a mini computer teaches children how to eat and reminds them when to stop.
  “In very fat people, hunger signals from the stomach to the brain stop functioning. But the new computer system teaches the children how to receive these messages again,” says Dr. Julian Hamilton-Shield, the Bristol University senior lecturer leading the treatment trials.
  The computer, called a Mandometer, records and stores the weight loss from the plate when children eat. As the food is leaving the plate, a curve (曲线) is produced on the computer screen suggesting whether the child is eating too quickly.
  “Children with weight problems often eat too quickly. We want them to eat steadily and slowly and the system teaches them to slow down. It’s a bit like retraining, ” says Hamilton-Shield.
  Obesity now represents one of the major threats to the future health of children. About one in five boys and one in four girls aged two to fifteen in England are overweight. But so far no treatments have proven effective in treating children.
  The Mandometer was developed in Sweden, but at present is experiencing further development at the University of Bristol, with 4,400 in funds from BUPA — a global health and care organization. The system could be on the market in two years time. At first, it would be managed by medical clinics.
  60. The text is mainly written to explain ____________.
  A. how a new computer treatment dealing with obesity works
  B. why child obesity becomes a topic of people
  C. how to lose weight with the help of computers
  D. why a computer is effective in dealing with child obesity
  61. The word “functioning” in paragraph 3 probably means __________.
  A. eating B. working C. lasting D. losing
  62. Obesity threats the health of children, which ___________.
  A. people have not cared about
  B. is nothing compared with other diseases
  C. is very serious
  D. has led to many deaths
  63. What can we learn from the text?
  A. The Mandometer will be put into market once it proves effective.
  B. The Mandometer is cheap enough for every family to afford.
  C. The Mandometer is still not perfect.
  D. Slow eating is sure to make people lose weight.

  Good sense is the most equally distributed (分配) thing in the world, for each man considers himself so well provided with it that even those who are most difficult to satisfy in everything else do not usually wish to have more of it than they have already. It is not likely that everyone is mistaken in this, it shows that the ability to judge rightly and separate the truth from the false, which is essentially(本质的)what is called good sense or reason, is by nature equal in all men, and thus that our opinions differ not because some men are better endowed (赋予) with reason than others, but only because we direct our thoughts along different paths, and do not consider the same things, for it is not enough to have a good mind: What is most important is to apply it rightly. The greatest souls are capable of the greatest evils (罪恶); and those who walk very slowly can advance much further, if they always keep to the direct road, than those who run and go astray (迷途).
  For my part, I have never thought my mind to be more perfect than average in any way; I have, in fact, often wished that my thoughts were as quick, or my imagination as exact and distinct (清楚的) , or my memory as good as those of some other men. And I know of no other qualifies than these which make for the perfection of the mind; for as to reason, or good sense, in as much as it alone makes us men and distinguishes ( 区分) us from the beasts. I am quite willing to believe that it is whole and entire in each of us, and to follow in the common opinion of the philosophers who say that there are differences of more or less only among the accidents, and not among the forms, or natures, of the individuals of a single species.
  68.The main idea of the first paragraph is ___________.
  A. all people have an equal portion(部分) of good will when they are born.
  B. great souls are capable of great evil
  C. good sense, in terms of its distribution among persons, may be called common sense
  D. good sense is the mark of the truly good person
  69. According to the passage, the author __________.
  A. has always thought he was cleverer than most persons
  B. has never had the feeling that his mind is more than average in any way
  C. thinks his awareness of his mental superiority (优越) over others is something that grew slowly with experience
  D. actually thinks he is not so clever as the great majority of persons
  70. The author thinks that what sets human beings apart from beasts is __________.
  A. a sense of organization combined with the ability to create
  B. the ability to adapt to the surroundings
  C. a strong sense of practicality
  D. a sense of reason
  71. According to the author, the ability to distinguish between the true and the false is _______.
  A. endowed by nature to all creatures
  B. endowed in equal measure to all persons
  C. mere heavily present is some persons than in others
  D. unnatural character in all persons

  The Olympic Games are seen as the greatest test of an athlete’s ability and are supposed to celebrate the spirit of fair play. But in fact, sportsmen have been using drugs to cheat their way to victory since the Games first began.
  In the early years, athletes ate mushrooms and plant seeds to improve their performance. Nowadays, this kind of cheating has a name doping (服用兴奋剂).
  Just last month, Britain’s top sprinter (赛跑选手) Dwain Chambers and several American athletes tested positive (呈阳性) for the drug THG. Until a coach secretly gave a sample of THG to scientists, no one knew how to test for it.
  “We’re like cops chasing criminals—athletes are always adapting and looking for areas we haven’t investigated,” said Jacques de Ceaurriz, a French anti-doping expert.
  Since the first drugs test was carried out at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City, many cheats have been caught out. The most famous case in history is that of Canadian sprinter Ben Johnson.
  He broke the 100 metres world record in winning gold at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. But days later, he tested positive for drug use, lost his gold medal and was banned from the sport. Five years later, he returned to action—only to be found positive again and banned forever.
  China has also had problems with drug cheats. At the 1994 Asian Games, 11 Chinese athletes —seven of them swimmers — tested positive for banned drugs. Sports organizations promised that cheating on this scale would not happen again.
  Experts are also worried that doping can damage a person’s health. It is believed to increase the risk of liver and kidney (肝肾) diseases, and women may experience reproductive (生育) problems. As long as they can stay ahead of the scientists, it is unlikely the cheats will stop. But experts say there is a limit to what can be achieved and that athletes will not be able to change their bodies using gene technology.
  “For the moment, genetic doping does not exist,” said de Ceaurriz. “Even in 10 or 15 years it will not be done easily — the scientific community will not let it happen.”
  72. Which of the following is not the way that some athletes cheat to their better sports achievements?
  A. Eating mushrooms. B. Taking drug THG.
  C. Taking genetic doping. D. Eating plant seeds.
  73. How may countries are mentioned in the passage in which there were athletes doping?
  A. Two. B. Four. C. Six. D. Eight.
  74. We can infer from the passage that __________.
  A. scientists get a lot of information about drugs before the athletes take doping.
  B. taking doping will never happen again because of the serious test
  C. few athletes used drug cheats before the first drugs test was carried out at the 1968 Olympics
  D. problems with drug cheats are still serious though they are severely tested
  75. Which statement of the following is TRUE?
  A. Many police are sent to chase criminals of taking doping during the Olympic Games.
  B. The drug test was carried out until the 1968 Olympics.
  C. There is the possibility that women athletes taking doping will give no birth to a child.
  D. Ben Johnson was banned from sports forever for being tested positive for drug use at the 1988 Seoul Olympics.

  Dear editor,
  As a student, I don’t want my teachers to visit my home. I prefer my teachers to talk face-to-face with me rather than talk with my parents, especially when I have done something wrong. If he tells my parents about this, I will be punished by them. Besides, it’s a waste of time or energy for the teachers to visit my home since both the teachers and my parents are very busy. Our daily life will be disturbed. Good teachers should also be good friends. They can give us good advice and help us. They should often encourage us. So we will try to do better in our studies and work.
  Yours sincerely
  Li Hong

  M: We want to make a good impression. Not just to be sure that this business deal is a success, but to pay back the wonderful hospitality we received from them in Tokyo last year.
  Text 7:
  M: May I help you ?
  W: Yes, my nephew is graduating from college next week and I’d like to get him a nice gift.
  M: What price of gift are you interested in ? We’ll need to know that before we begin looking.
  W: I usually spend about twenty dollars for a gift. Do you have anything nice for that price?
  M: How about a pen and pencil? We could carve his name on them.
  W: No, my brother gave him that for his birthday last year.
  M: Well, then, would he enjoy a chess set?
  W: No, he doesn’t go in much for chess, but he is quite athletic.
  M: Then you could get him a handball set.
  W: That’s a good idea. I’ll take it.
  Text 8:
  M: Are you going to have a holiday this year?
  W: Yes. We’re thinking of visiting my brother Fred, who is a farmer.
  M: Farming is a very nice job, although farmers have to work hard. They have to get up at 5 in the morning.
  W: Well, as a doctor, you are quite used to getting up in the night. Well, I’ve just heard from Fred. He says his corn is ready for harvest. And he’s thinking of buying some more fields next year.
  M: oh, he must be doing well.
  W: Yes, he’s proud of having the largest farm in Kent.
  M: Have you ever been on the farm before?
  W: Yes. Last summer I was. I tried my hand at milking a cow. The result was terrible!
  Text 9:
  M: Betty, whose keys are these? I’ve just found them on my desk.
  W: They’re not mine, Jack. I saw them this morning after Joe left. He probably forget them.
  M: Why did he leave so early? Did he have a class?
  W: No. When he was playing basketball, he fell and hurt his arm. I’ll see Joe in class this afternoon. I’ll ask him if the keys are his.
  M: If they aren’t his, maybe they’re my uncle’s. He brought me some cakes this morning, you know.
  W: That’s right. But he came by car, didn’t he? Then how could he get into his car without his keys?
  M: Well, they must be somebody’s. I’m sure he’s looking for the keys now.
  Text 10:
  Hello! My name’s Art. I’m 74 years old and I live in a retirement community with my wife Kate. I retired about twelve years ago from the bicycle business. I was in the bicycle business for thirty-five years. Twenty of the thirty-five years I ran my own business. After I decided to sell my business, I became an advisor. I worked as an advisor for five years and then I retired. The retirement community I live in requires one to be forty-eight years or older. In the community I engage in many activities, oil painting, watercolor painting, stained glass projects. My major activity, however, is golf. Weather permitting, I play every day. We have a golf course in the community, and since I played more often than I used to before I retired, my game has improved.
