Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)


Directions:Read

the

following

passages

carefully

and

choose

the

best

answer

from

the

four


choices marked A, B, C and D.


Questions 21 to 25 are based on the same passage or dialog.


Sylvester and I are watching television advertisements because we need information for a class


research project. We have to discuss realism and dreams in television advertising, and so we are


looking for examples of things that are not true in television advertisements. The question we are


asking is,


Sylvester

is

keeping

track

of

the

lies,

and

he

already

has

quite

a

long

list.

He

says

that

all


housewives seem to live in lovely homes, dress beautifully, and love their househo

ld chores. They


smile

and boast about floor cleaners and proudly display their dirty clothes, dirty tabletops, and


dirty children. In addition, he has never seen men doing housework. Sylvester thinks that this view


of family life is filled with things that are not true.


I am keeping track of the people who appear in the advertisements. I have found handsome men


chasing after beautiful women, and they are always recommending brand X toothpaste or brand Y


cologne

(

科隆香水

). I

see

teenagers

and children

with

their

friends,

having

wonderful

time

at


parties

and

at

school,

and

they

are

usually

enjoying

large,

happy family

gatherings.

I

think

that


these advertisements are also filled with things that aren't true.


Sylvester and I have discovered that much of American life is pictured unrealistically on television.


Teenagers do not always have fun at parties, and very few people love doing chores. People do


have problems but few of these are ever shown in advertisements. Instead, we watch Cinderella


discover a miracle floor cleaner, finish the kitchen chores, and waltz off to the ball. Our heads are


filled

with

these

dreams,

and

they

also

suggest

that,

for

any

problem,

brand

Z will

provide

the


instant

cure.

Sylvester

and

I will

have

very

few

facts

and

a

lot

of

dreams

to w

rite

about

in

our


research reports.


21. Why are the speaker and Sylvester watching television?


A. They are looking for good products.


B. They are trying to be like TV people.


C. They are interested in advertising.


D. They are doing a school project.


22. What are they trying to find out about TV advertisements?


A. Whether they tell the truth about life.


B. Whether they have both men and women.


C. Whether they show a good way to live.


D. Whether they are fair to women and men.


23. What does the author think about how teenagers are shown?


A. It is incomplete. B. It is unrealistic.

C. It is true to life.

D. It is too boring.


24.

Sylvester

and

the

author

have

come

to

the

conclusion

that

television

advertising


__________________.


A. truly reflects American life


B. lack in much imagination


C. seldom shows problems


D. gives great fun to children


25. The most suitable title for the passage is _____________________.


A. A

Class Research Project on TV


B. American Life to Be Shown


C. Children Like to See Advertisements


D. Untrue things in TV Advertising

Questions 21 to 30 are based on the same passage or dialog.


The Spelling of English


The spelling of English words is a problem that not even native-born users of the English language


have

ever

been

able

to solve.

Why should

the same

vowel

(

元音

) sound

be

spelt

differently

reality

that

much

much

sense,

sometimes phonetic (

语音的

) (as in the purely phonetic spelling of the negative word


sometimes the way it is because of history (as in


but keeps an initial


Reform Attempts


Over the years, there have been some people who have wanted to make some changes in spelling.


The American dictionary maker Noah Webster, in his first dictionary, gave up


as the

拇指

were as cautious as the British. Modern Webster dictionaries spell the word


silent


George

Bernard

Shaw

left

part

of

his

large fortune

to

set

up

a

phonetic

alphabet

for

English.

A


team of language experts followed his wishes. But their book on the subject caused no enthusiasm.


Use of a Dictionary in Spelling


English

spelling

continued

unchanged.

Publishing

houses

employ what

they

call

editors


experts in spelling, to tidy up the material written by hand of many best-selling authors who can


write excellent stories but who cannot spell!


My

advice

is:

keep

a

dictionary

nearby.

Y

ou

do

not

lose

face

by

using

it.

I can

assure

you

that


thousands

of

native

English

speakers

would

not write

a

page

of

their

own

language

without

a


dictionary

close

at

hand.

Now

that

so

many

people

are

using

computer

programs

that

check


spelling, dictionary searching is much easier. Perhaps one day the computer will do all the spelling


for us but until then keep your dictionary nearby and use it all the time.


Doubling or Not?


Now for a useful spelling tip. It arose from a question I heard from a university graduate whose


only language was native-born English.


Forgetting


but

Is there

any way

of

deciding

when

and where

not

to

double

the

final


letter before the addition of


Here are a few rules. In words of one syllable (

音节

), if the vowel before the final consonant is


long,

no

doubling

of

the

final

consonant

is

done

before

the

addition

of

or

hope,


hoping, hoped; mate, mating, mated. If the vowel is short, then double the final consonant before


the addition of


In words

of

more

than

one

syllable,

if

the

vowel

before

the final

consonant

is

long,

follow

the


same

as

for words

of

one syllable,

that

is,

no

doubling

of the

final

consonant

before

the


addition of


In a word of more than one syllable, if the vowel before the final consonant is short, doubling or


non-doubling of the final consonant depends on where the stress (voice emphasis) falls in speech.


(In the following examples the syllable that carries the stress is printed in CAPITAL LETTERS).


If the stress falls on the final syllable, then double the final consonant before the addition of


or

forGETTing,

transFERRing,

transFERRed.

If

the

stress

falls

elsewhere,

then

do

not


double

the

final

consonant

before

the

addition

of

or

BUDGeting,

BUDGeted,


GARDening, GARDened, OFFering, OFFered.


This will solve most of the problem. But spelling is not an exact science. There are grey areas. For


example, the one-syllable word


available,

while

a

borrowing

like

the

word

results

in

the

variants

Transcript: BCCAB


Is it better to be a small fish in a big pond or a big fish in a small pond?


Sometimes we see two ponds: one is small and the other is big. In the small pond the


big fish seem to enjoy great dignity and priority, while in the big pond a lot of small


fish swim freely. It is also true in the case of work. Job hunters may have to decide


whether to be a big fish in a small pond or a small fish in a big pond.


There are distinct differences between working in large or small enterprises. In large


enterprises, you can derive a deep sense of satisfaction from being a member of a


well-known organization. You may get well paid, have better training and good


working conditions. And you can get in touch with advanced management.


In a small enterprise, however, you have bigger responsibilities that may bring


immediate effect. Normally you are exposed to various experiences and are expected


to do a great many things without much help or guidance.


Questions


1. What's the feeling of big fish in the small pond?


2. What's the feeling of small fish in the big pond?


3. What does big pond refer to?


4. What is the feeling of working in a large enterprise?


5. What is the feeling of working in a small enterprise?

Cloning (

克隆

) Plan Poses New Ethical (

伦理

) Dilemma


Healthy women could be asked to give their eggs for cloning research in an effort to speed up the


development of new treatments for disease.


Until now, cloning experts in Britain have found good excuses for

their work by using only spare


eggs

left

over

from

couples

getting

treatment

at

fertility

(

生育

)

clinics.

The

eggs

are

usually


rejects of the IVF process and are routinely given up if not used in experiments.


Ethical Questions on Giving Eggs


Many scientists working in the field believe their research is severely influenced because the eggs


they

use

are

of

such

poor

quality

that

they

often

do

not

grow

into

healthy

clones.

But

others


believe that asking women to give eggs purely for research introduces a possible financial purpose


that is morally unacceptable.


Critics

claimed

it

turns

human

eggs

and

the

women who

provide

them

into

goods.

They

also


warned that any woman considering giving eggs must be fully informed of the health risks before


going through with the lengthy and sometimes painful process.


Prof. Wilmut, the creator of Dolly, the cloned sheep, said that he hoped to get high quality eggs for


cloning experiments by asking healthy women to give them for his research.


In

May,

a

team

of

scientists

in

Newcastle

announced

they

had

created

the

first cloned

human


embryo

(

胚胎

)

in

Europe

and

only

the

second

in

the

world,

as

part

of

a

project

to

develop


treatments for

diabetes

(

糖尿病

).

They

found

that

the

quality

of

the

eggs

was

important to

the


success of the experiments.


In an interview, Prof. Wilmut said,


we were helping people to have treatment. Our hope and belief is that women who have seen the


bad

effects

of

this

disease will

be

prepared

to

make

such

a

contribution.

The

suggestion

has


already caused anger among some religious groups.


A

representative

with

the

HFEA

refused

to comment

on whether Prof.

Wilmut's suggestion

had


been received but said that an independent committee would make a decision on the matter.


Professor Alison Murdoch, who leads the Newcastle cloning team, said that the lack of more eggs


was influencing research and meant that alternatives to those given up during fertility treatment


were needed greatly.


We're not treating women specifically to get eggs for research. It's part of their fertility treatment.


And until we have more experience, it's not possible for us to know the best way to get eggs. But


asking for contributions is an issue that needs to be discussed,


The

potential

benefits

of

collecting

fresh

eggs

from

women

not

going

through

with

fertility


treatment has already been demonstrated by the world-leading team in Asia. Having gathered eggs


from women who gave eggs purely for research, the team went on to become the first to produce a


cloned human embryo, and earlier this year reported they had produced tissues (

组织

) from clones


tailored to specific patients.


Possible Dangers in Egg Giving


According to Prof. Murdoch, the most pressing issue was to ensure that any woman considering


giving eggs for research was completely informed of the method, its risks, and the subsequent use


of her eggs before she was allowed to do it.


Before a woman can give eggs, she must first go through a process over several days to help her


produce more eggs than normal. The eggs are then taken out surgically. Although this process is


carried out routinely at fertility clinics, it is not without risks, and problems can range from pain


and sickness to more dangerous and even life-threatening conditions.


Josephine

Quintavalle

of

the

pressure

group,

Comment

on

Reproductive

Ethics

(

),

said


concerns for the health of egg donors had prompted the group to draw up an agreement to ensure


that the risks are made clear.


what point does it become right for a woman to go through with something which has risks when


there is no benefit at all for her?


It's no surprise that researchers are looking to fertile women to give eggs because they want them


to produce the best tissues, but there's a danger that researchers have become too cheerful about


this,

she

added.

very

nervous

about

this.

Selfless

contribution

has

a

strong

tradition

in


medicine,

but

any

action

of

trying

to

ask

women

to

give,

whether

it's

moral

or

financial,

is


something we should be aware of. If a woman decides of her own free will that she wants to give


eggs, then that is her decision, but as soon as someone offers a reward, even if it is not financial, it


becomes a worry

.


A

Boys with Eating Disorders (

紊乱,失调

)


Why isn't Tony Eating?


No one knows what Tony does at lunchtime. His friends all gather at the dining hall where they


share stories and eat. They talk about their lives and the things they have seen in movies or read in


books. But Tony doesn't care about these things, and he doesn't join them. In fact, there is only one


thing on Tony's mind-building the perfect body

. And while his friends are chatting away

, Tony

is


in

the

gym

by

himself,

lifting

weights.

Now,

he

is

able

to

lift

more

than

ever.

He

has

also


measured his arms and legs and weighed himself. He knows he is in the best shape of his life. But


it's not enough.


Introduction-a real problem


People say that women and girls are the ones who have body size issues, the ones who develop


eating disorders, and the ones affected most by the media pressure. It is true that women and girls


are affected more, but the same issues also affect men and boys. Experts believe the number of


boys affected is increasing and that many cases may not be reported, since males are reluctant to


acknowledge any illness mostly associated with females.


Where it comes from


There is more and more media pressure for men and boys to take on the look of the well-muscled


athletes

and

actors.

Males

are

becoming

uncomfortable

about

their

physical

appearance

and


self-image. Sports, health, and fitness magazines focus on the importance of having muscles and


the methods to obtain those perfect sports bodies. Boys tend to do a great deal of weight training


and, if they do not see immediate results, they often turn to using steroids (

类固醇

) and vitamins


that advertise unbelievable muscle gain.


The average boy cannot come near meeting the impossible


perfection. They are not going to be Arnold Schwarzenegger or some other action star, or have the


well-muscled body of athletes. The most popular magazines carry images of women and men on


the covers that represent about 3 percent of the population. Obviously, that leaves 97 percent who


cannot measure up to that level of a desired body image.


Magazines, especially those aimed at men and boys, spread the


Advertisements promote weight lifting, body building or muscle toning. The V-shaped body with


great muscles is emphasized as the ideal.


The need to make weight for a sport like boxing can cause eating disorders. The demand for pills


(

药片

) that give energy and decrease a person's desire to eat is high among those needing to make


weight.

Weight

training,

sports,

and conversation with friends

can

lead

boys

to

abnormal

eating


habits, which can lead to eating disorders.


Even the toys they play with create pressure. The toy action figures have more muscles today than


they did in the past. Their bodies are setting unrealistic ideals for boys in much the same way dolls


have been blamed for giving an unrealistic body ideal for girls.


One of the side effects of this body consciousness for both boys and girls is the tendency to turn to


smoking to keep their weight down. Overweight boys in the age range of 9 to 14 were 65% more


likely to think about or try smoking than their peers. The same study found that boys who worked


out every day in order to lose weight were twice as likely to experiment with tobacco. Males with


poor body image are also more likely to take drugs and get angry easily.


The effects of a poor body image


It's not uncommon for people who think poorly of their bodies to have problems in other areas of


their lives, including careers and relationships. One's feelings of self-worth, behavior, and social


confidence can all be related to either a good or a bad body image. How you see yourself affects


every part of your life.


More

and

more

health-care

professionals

are

starting

to

realize

the

degree

that

boys

can

be


influenced by body image. One recent study showed that of boys between the ages of 7 and 9, fifty


percent wanted to reshape their body. This percentage (

百分比

) increases as they reach their teens


and want to take part in sports and impress girls. It is something that can follow you throughout


life if you do not learn to understand that there is more to you than your muscles and body shape.


Advice for people with a poor body image


If you are a boy or a young man who is worried too much about how your body looks, you should


remember that your body is just one part of who you are. And it is not even a very important part.


Y

ou are not just what your body means.

Y

our worth as a person, or your identity as a man, is not


determined by your weight or body shape. Develop your potential. Think about your unique gifts.


Meaningful relationships, well-established goals, and kindheartedness to others lead to a balanced


life and better feelings of one's self. An over-muscled body just doesn't do these.


And if you are still having trouble with doubts or concerns about your body

, rather than work out


more or eat less, see a doctor about your problems. By talking to a psychologist, you may reduce


your

anxieties,

and

finally

make

them

a

thing

of

the

past

so

that

you

can

turn

to

much

more


important things in

life. Psychologists have had a great deal of success stories in treating young


men with the same problem, and, most likely, they will be able to help you as well.

Part 4 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)


(Each item: 1)


Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four


choices marked A, B, C and D.


Questions 26 to 30 are based on the same passage or dialog.


Language

is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were


born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many


problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same


native

language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially

in America, there


are

many

immigrants

that came

from

different countries

to succeed

in

the States.

Because

they


suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to


speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this


situation,

their

children

are

losing

their

ethnic

identity

and,

even

more,

they

are

ignoring

their


parents whose English is not very good.


I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this


doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order


to help them succeed in the US; she did so, hopefully, to help them establish a

Korean

identity.
