Part II. Reading Comprehension
Directions:There
are
three
passages
in
this
part.
Passage
1
and
Passage
2
are
followed
by
five
questions
each.
For
each
question, there are four choices marked
A, B, C, and D. For Passage 3, there are two
choices after each question marked A
(True) and B (False). Choose the ONE
that you think is the best answer.
Passage 1
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
正确答案解析
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

A
解析:
句意理解题。
见文章第一段
“
Not so long ago almost any student ...
career quite easily. However, those days are gone,
even ... in the search for jobs.
”
,理解了这段话的意思,就不难看出选项
A
是正确答案。
12
The word
正确答案解析
A. family
B.
comparative
C. considerable
D. slight
正确答案:
B
解析:句中的名词短语“
the relative
importance to themselves of such matters as ...
”意为“对他们来说一些比较重要的
事情,例如??”
,因此选项
B
是正确答案。
c
onsiderable
意为“相当大的,值得考虑的”
。

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

B
解析:细节题。文章第三段第一句话“
The second
stage is ... to develop in the future.
”
意为“第二步是研究可行的就业
机会并对就业情况未来可能如何发展加以思考”
,所以选项
B
是正确答案。
14
The word
正确答案解析
A. generous
B.
reasonable
C. future
D. ambitious
正确答案:
C
解析:词汇题。

employer

其
中第三和第四句话

try to give positive ...
they are
unsure about. This is much better...and giving an
unsuitable answer.
”告诉被面视者要诚实而不是不懂装懂,因此<
/p>
选项
C
是正确答案。
Passage 2
It is natural for young
people to be critical of their parents at times
and to blame them for most of the misunderstanding
between them. They have always
complained, more or less justly, that they are
possessive and dominant; that they do not
trust
their
children
to
deal
with
crisis;
that
they
talk
too
much
about
certain
problems
—
and
that
they
have no
sense
of
humor,
at least in parent-child relationship.
I think it is true that
parents often underestimate their teenage children
and also forget how they themselves felt when
young.
Young people often irritate parents
with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in
entertainers and music. This is not their
motive. They feel cut off from the
adult world into which they have not yet accepted.
So they create a culture and society of
their own. Then, it turns out that
their music or entertainers or vocabulary or
clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents; this
gives them additional enjoyment. They
feel they are superior, at least in a small way,
and that they are leaders in style and
taste.
Sometimes you are resistant and proud
because you do not want your parents to approve of
what you do. If they did
approve, it
looks as if you are betraying your own age group.
But in that case, you are assuming that you are
the
underdog(
处
于劣势者
):
you can't win but at least you can keep your
honor. This is a passive way of looking at things.
It is natural enough
after long years
of childhood, when you were completely under your
parents' control. But it ignores the fact that you
are now
beginning to be responsible for
yourself.
If
you plan to control your life, cooperation can be
part of that plan. You can impress others,
especially your parents, into
doing
things the way you want. You can impress others
with your sense of responsibility and initiative,
so that they will give
you the
authority to do what you want to do.

Passage 3
The French Revolution broke
out in 1789. At the time France was in a crisis.
The government was badly run and
people
’
s
lives
were miserable. King Louis XIV tried to control
the national parliament and raise more taxes. But
his effort failed. He
ordered his
troops to Versailles. The people thought that
Louis intended to put down the Revolution by
force. On July 14, 1789,
they
stormed
and
took
the
Bastille,
where
political
prisoners
were
kept.
Ever
since
that
day,
July
14
has
been
the
French
National Day. Louis tried to flee the
country in 1792, to get support from Austria and
Prussia. However, he was caught and put
in prison. In September 1792, the
monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis
was executed. A few months later his wife,
Marie, also had her head cut off. The
Revolution of France had frightened the other
kings of Europe. Armies from Austria and
Prussia
began
to
march
against
France.
The
French
raised
republican
armies
to
defend
the
nation.
The
Revolution
went
through a period of terror. Thousands
of people lost their lives. In the end, power
passed to Napoleon Bonaparte.
21
This passage is mainly
about France.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
B
解析:题干的意思是:这篇文章主要讲述法国的有关情况。文章的第一句话提到法国大革命爆发于
< p>1789
年,而其后则
是具体讲述法国大革命爆发
的原因、过程及结果。由此可知,这篇文章主要讲的是法国大革命,而不是法国的有关情
况,因此正确答案为选项
B
。
22
The national economy was
developing rapidly in 1789.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
B
解析:题干的意思是:在
1789
年,国家经济得以快速发
展。从文章的前三句话可以得知,法国大革命爆发于这一年,
当时的法国正在经历一场危
机,
而且政府运行得并不好,
人民生活在痛苦之中,
从而导致了大革命的爆发。
由此可知,
当时的国家
经济并没有得到快速发展,因此正确答案为选项
B
。
23
The political prisoners
were kept in Bastille.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
A
解析:
题干的意思是:

(
Bastille
)
。
根据文章中
“
On July 14,
1789, they stormed and took the Bastille,
where political prisoners were kept.
”
这句话可知,
当时的政治犯是被关押在巴士
底狱
(
Bastille
)
,
因此正确答案为选项
A
。
24
The
underlined word
“
abolished
p>
”
means
“
ended
”
.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
A
解析:题干的意思是:
画线单词“
abolished
”的词义是“终止”
。从文章中找到画线单词所在的句子,其前一句话是说
路易十六被抓起来并
关押在监狱,后一句话说他在同一年被处死,而画线单词所在的句子则是说,
1792<
/p>
年
9
月君主制
被
废除,因此可以推断出“
abolished
”一词的意思应该
是“废除,终止”
。由此可知,正确答案为选项
A
。
25
The king
tried to control the national parliament after the
Revolution.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
B
解析:题干的意思是:国王试图在大革命后控制国家议会。文章的第二、三、四句话“
At the time France was in a crisis.
The government was badly run and
people
’
s lives were
miserable. King Louis XIV tried to control the
national parliament and
raise
more
taxes.
”讲到,当时
的法国正处在一片混乱中,政府腐败,人民生活凄惨,路易十六企图控制议会并增加赋
税
,从而导致了大革命的爆发。因此,国王试图控制国家议会是在大革命之前,而不是在大革命之后,故正确答案为
选项
B
。

Speakers and writers are supposed to
supposed to write clearly the idea or
piece of information they wish to express.
People from
many other cultures have different ideas about
thoughts they have in mind,rather than
stating
to figure out what the point
is. Thus, while an American might say to a

of

if

going

Passage 2
Your success in your
studies will also depend upon your
motivation
(动机)
. This need or
desire to achieve a certain goal
can
make
the
difference
between
success
and
failure.
Motivation
can
come
from
two
sources:from
inside
of
you
or
from
outside
of you. In the first case,motivation comes from
your hopes and expectations,from your desire to do
something or to
be someone. Study
purposes that result from personal inner desires
are individual,and various. If you have not
already done
so,you should think
carefully about what you hope to gain from your
studies,and why. You should set a goal and direct
all your
study efforts toward reaching
it. A goal of this kind is important because it
will determine the direction and degree of your
motivation for study.
Not
everyone
is
highly
motivated from
within and
no
one
is
continuously
motivated
from within.
Fortunately
there
is
another source of
motivation
:
from outside. In
education the most obvious kind of outside
motivation is grades. For many
students,course grades are an
immediate,short-range motivation for study. This
is one of the reasons for examinations and
grades,but
they
must
not
become
a
goal
in
themselves.
Grades
help
to
motivate
you
from
day
to
day,but
they
are
only
small,artificial steps to your ultimate
goal. It would be wrong to set grades as your only
ambition.
A
textbook like this cannot provide you with
motivation
;
that must come
from yourself. But as an encouragement,it is
useful to know that good study habits
depend upon good motivation. And good study habits
are important because they help
you get
more done in less time. It is not a matter of how
much you study
;
more
important is how well you study.
16
Inside motivation comes
from____________.
正确答案解析
A. your
need and desire
B. your hopes and
expectations
C. your desire to do
something or to be someone
D. both B
and C
正确答案:
D
解析:此题问的是内部
动机的来源,这可从文章第一段第四句得出答案,所以正确答案为
D
。
17
Study
purposes____________.
正确答案解析
A. are different from person to person
B. are personal inner
desires
C. share some
common points
D. should be
carefully made
正确答案:
A
解析:根据文章第一段
第五句话,即“因个人内心渴望而产生的学习目的是有个人特点的、多种多样的”
,可知
正确答
案为
A
。
18
If you haven't set a goal
in your studies,____________.
正确答案解析
A. you will most probably become a
failure
B. you will never
be a good student
C. you
may lose direction and lack motivation
D. you won't have good study habits
正确答案:
C
解析:根据文章第一段最后一句话,即“树立这种目标很重要,因为它会决定学习的方向和动机的强弱程度”
,可知如
果你不树立学习目标,就有可能迷失方向和缺乏动机,
所以正确答案为
C
。
19
According to the passage,why are
examinations and grades necessary in education?
正确答案解析
A. Because they can make
the difference between success and failure.
B. Because they can
motivate many students to study harder.
C. Because they can check
what you have gained from your studies.
D. Because they are
small,artificial steps to an ultimate goal.
正确答案:
B
解析:此题问的是教育中为什么需要考试和分数。文章第二段告诉我们,不是所有的人都有强烈的内部动机, 也没有
人能够始终保持内部动机,但幸好还有外部动机。对许多学生来说,考试分数是一
个直接的、短期的学习动机,学生
会为了得高分而努力学习,所以正确答案为
B
。
20
If you want to be an efficient
learner,you must____________.
正确答案解析
A. have clear study purposes
B. be always motivated from
both inside and outside
C.
set grades as your ambition
D. have good study habits
正确答案:
D
解析:根据文章最后一
段第三句话,即“好的学习习惯很重要,因为它们能帮助你在较少的时间里学会更多的东西”
,
可知正确答案为
D
。
Passage 3
By
definition,
heroes
and
heroines
are
men
and
women
distinguished
by
uncommon
courage,
achievements,
and
self-sacrifice made most for the
benefits of others
—
they are people against whom we measure
others. They are men and
women
recognized for shaping
our nation’s
consciousness and development as well as the lives
of thos
e who admire them. Yet,
some people say that ours is an age
where true heroes and heroines are hard to come
by, where the very idea of heroism is
something beyond us
—
an artifact of the past.
Some maintain that because the Cold War is over
and because America is at
peace, our
age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore,
the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been
eased by a strong
and growing economy,
and advances continue to be made in medical
science.
Cultural
icons
(偶像)
are hard to define,
but we know them when we see them. They are people
who manage to go
beyond celebrity
(明星)
, who are legendary, who
somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes
some figures icons
and others mere
celebrities? That
’
s hard to
answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a
story to tell. For instance, the
beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19
married a prince, renounced marriage and the
throne, and died at the moment she
found
true
love.
Good
looks
certainly
help.
So
does
a
special
indefinable
charm,
with
the
help
of
the
media.
But
nothing
confirms an icon
more than a tragic death
—
such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy,
and Princess Diana.
21
The passage mainly deals with heroes
and icons.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
A
解析:题干的意思是:这篇文章主要是讲述的是英雄和偶像。从全文的内容来看,这篇文章主要讲述了英雄和 偶像之
间的关系,因此正确答案为选项
A
。
22
Heroes and
heroines are usually courageous and self-
sacrificing.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
A
解析:
题干的意思是:
英雄通常是勇敢且具有献身精神的。
有文章第一段第一句话
“
By
definition, heroes and heroines are
men
and women distinguished by uncommon courage,
achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the
benefits of others
—
they are people against whom we measure
others.
”中关于英雄的定义可知,英雄们一般都有与众不同的勇气,而且
具有献身精神,是人们学习的典范,因此正确答案为选项
A
。
23
Heroes and
heroines can only emerge in war times.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F
正确答案:
B
解析:
题干的意思是:
英雄只可能在战争年代出现。
由文章第一段中
“
Yet, some
people say that ours is an age where true
heroes and heroines are hard to come
by, where the very idea of heroism is something
beyond us
—
an
artifact of the past.
Some maintain
that because the Cold War is over and because
America is at peace, our age is essentially an
unheroic one.
”这
两句话可知,
“英雄只可能在战争年代出现”只是一部分人的观点,而文章暗含的意思是说,英雄不只是在战争年代才
会出现,因此正确答案为选项
B
。

princess.
正确答案解析
A. T
B. F

For
instance, the beautiful
young Diana
Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced
marriage and the throne, and died at the moment
she found true
love.
”这句话可知,戴
安娜·斯宾塞是在死的时候才找到真爱,而不是在她嫁给王子成为王妃的时候,因此正确答案
为选项
B
。
