Part I. Reading Comprehension:
Directions: In this part there are three passages. Each passage is followed by a number of comprehension questions. Read the passages and answer the questions. Then, mark your answer on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
( 1 )
A computer is a machine designed to perform work mathematically and to store and select information that has been fed into it. It is run by electronic means. These machines can do a great deal of hard work in a very short time. A large computer, for example, can add nine thousand times a second, or divide five hundred times a second.
The heart of an electronic computer lies in its transistors. It works thousand times faster than the human brain. A problem that might take a human being two years to solve can be solved by a computer in one minute, but in order to work properly, a computer must be given directions --- it must be programmed.
Computers can be designed for many specialized aims --- they can be used to guide airplane flights, direct cars, even to play chess. Computers play an important part in modern work in many plants and factories throughout the world.
01. Computer is a machine made to ________.
A. perform work mathematically B. perform hard calculations
C. store and select information D. all of the above
02. Computers are valuable to industry because they ________.
A.perform rapidly
B.find mistakes in human calculations quickly
C.can solve all mathematical problems

03. The passage calls transistors the electronic computer’s ________.
A. store B. brain C. direction D. heart
04. The use of computers for specialized aims depends on the ________.
A. design of the computer B. power used to operate the computer
C. the ability of the programmer D. ways to operate them
05. Which of the following is true?
A.Computers must be fed every day.
B.A computer is a store of information.
C.Computers must be programmed by human beings.
D.A computer can work out a difficult problem within a minute.

Dear Editor:
While a new school term is about to begin, perhaps we should reconsider the matter of examinations. In July, two writers (letters to the editor) praised the cancellation of exams because they believe “tests don’t tell the whole story”.
As a teacher who worked in four countries, I have had the experience that a student who earns good marks is generally a good student, and that a student’s final mark in a subject is usually a grade average of the year’s work. Of course there are exceptions, but they do not have the frequency that would give an unfair picture of a student’s ability.
The simple fact is that proper class work, diligent exam studies and good marks are almost certain indicators of a student’s future performance. The opposite, almost certainly, incompetence.
There is no acceptable substitute for competition and examination of quality. How can teachers and future officials determine what a student has learned and remembered? Should we simply take the student’s word for it? Any institution that “liberates” students from fair and formal exams is misguided, if not ignorant. And surely the “graduates” of such institutions will lack trustworthiness, not to mention being rejected by foreign universities for graduates or other studies.
When all is said and done, I sense that a fear of failure and a fear of unpleasant comparison with others are at the bottom of most ban-exams talk. Excellence and quality fear nothing. On the contrary, they seek competition and desire the satisfaction of being the best.
06. Which of the following will the author of this passage probably agree with?
A.Tests are an effective measure of the student’s abilities.
B.Tests are not effective in measuring the student’s abilities.
C.Tests can only measure some of the student’s abilities.
D.Tests may not be useful for measuring student’s abilities.
07. The two writers mentioned in the first paragraph ________.
A.seem to be worried about the poor marks of their students
B.must have proposed other ways of testing students
C.regard exams as a way of punishing students
D.opposed judging students by the results of exams
08. According to the letter, a student’s final mark ________.
A.is often encouraging
B.often tells whether he likes the subject or not
C.often proves unreliable
D.often gives a fair picture of the year’s work
09. If a student graduated from a university which does not require exams he would ________.
A.have to continue his studies
B.not be admitted by foreign institutions
C.be incompetent
D.often gives a fair picture of the year’s work
10. According to the writer of the letter, those who oppose exams ________.
A. are incompetent teachers B. fear failure
C. have no confidence in competition D. both B and C

The world's population continues to grow. There now are about 4 billion of us on earth. That could reach 6 billion by the end of the century and 11 billion in a further 75 years. Experts have long been concerned about such a growth. Where will we find the food, water, jobs, houses, schools and health care for all these people?
A major new study shows that the situation may be changing. A large and rapid drop in the world's birth rate has taken place during the past 10 years. Families generally are smaller now than they were a few years ago. It is happening in both developing and industrial nations.
Researchers said they found a number of reasons for this. More men and women are waiting longer to get married and are using birth control devices and methods to prevent or delay pregnancy. More women are going to school or working at jobs away from home instead of having children. And more governments, especially in developing nations, now support family planning programs to reduce population growth.
China is one of the nations that have made great progress in reducing its population growth. China has already cut its rate of population growth by about one half since 1970.
Each Chinese family is now urged to have no more than one child. And the hope is to reach a zero population growth with the total number of births equaling the total number of deaths by the year 2000.
Several nations in Europe already have fewer births than deaths. Experts said that these nations could face a serious shortage of workers in the future. And the persons who are working could face much higher taxes to help support the growing number of retired people.
11. The world's population could reach _________.
A. 6 billion in 75 years B. 11 billion in 2075
C. 11 billion by the end of this century D. 600 million in 15 years
12. Population growth is happening __________.
A. in all countries B. in a few countries only
C. in most countries D. mainly in developed countries
13. Which of the following is true?
A. There has been a slower population growth in the past ten years.
B. The world's birth rate is higher than ten years ago.
C. Families are as large as before.
D. Birth control has been well practised in all nations.
14. China has reduced its population growth by _________ since 1970.
A. about 50% B. exactly one half
C. a lot more than 50% D. much less than one half
15. According to the essay, China's population control ___________.
A. should be considered a big success B. is not quite successful
C. is far from being successful D. is a complete failure
( 4 )
Dear Doctor,
My husband and 1 got married in 1965 and for the first ten years of our marriage I was very happy to stay home and raise our three children. Then four years ago, our youngest child went to school and I thought I might go back to work.
My husband was very supportive and helped me to make my decision. He emphasized all of the things I can do around the house, and said he thought 1 could be a great success in business.
After several weeks of job-hunting, I found my present job, which is working for a small public relations firm. At first, my husband was very proud of me and would tell his friends, "'My clever little wife can run that company she's working for."
But as his joking remark approached reality, my husband stopped talking to me about my job. I have received several promotions and pay increases, and I am now making more money than he is. I can buy my own clothes and a new car. Because of our combined incomes, my husband and I can do many things that we had always dreamed of doing, but we don't do these things because he is very unhappy.
We fight about little things and my husband is very critical of me in front of our friends. For the first time in our marriage, I think there is a possibility that our marriage may come to an end.
I love my husband very much, and I don't want him to feel inferior, but I also love my job. I think I can be a good wife and a working woman, but I don't know how. Can you give me some advice? Will I have to choose one or the other or can 1 keep both my husband and my new career?
Please help.
