You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.

Passage One

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

As a place of learn ing, Oxford’s beginnings are equally distant. Legend has it that Alfred laid its foundations at the end of the ninth century. Certainly by the 12th century scholars were teaching in the town, Latin being the lingua franca (通用语). Before long their fame spre ad to the Continent, particularly to the Sorbonne College in Paris, then Europe’s greatest centre of learning. A group of English scholars left the French capital in 1167 to settle in Oxford and the place became an attraction for students and teachers from all over Britain. Forty-seven years later the university received its first charter (许可证) granted by the Pope regulating its administration. Today Oxford is a large, crowded city, but the ancient university buildings in the centre --- colleges, libraries, museums and administrative blocks connected by narrow lanes --- have remained largely untouched.

While most old universities have modernized radically to accommodate their growing populations, Oxford has managed to expand while still preserving its traditional academic structure. The 36 existing colleges, varying from the older houses such as Merton, founded in the 13th century, to the newest, Green, founded in 1979, are independent, self-governing institutions operating under the umbrella of the University of Oxford. Still more foundations are prepared to become full colleges.

26. By the 12th century, ____.

A) Oxford had become the center of learning in Europe

B) scholars were teaching Latin in Oxford

C) French was the prevailing language in Oxford

D) many British teachers and students went to Oxford

27. Oxford was recognized by the church in ____.

A) the 9th century B) 1167 C) the 10th century D) 1214

28. Which of the following statements is NOT true?

A) Many old buildings in Oxford have been removed.

B) Oxford has grown into a large city.

C) Oxford boasts a long history.

D) Many people are now living in Oxford.

29. It can be inferred from the passage that ____.

A) Oxford is left behind by other universities

B) Oxford is backward nowadays in academy

C) many universities have gone too far in modernization

D) the modernization in Oxford is far from radical

30. Which description about today’s Oxford is correct?

A) Latin is the lingua franca.

B) Many new buildings are under construction.

C) The number of colleges is on the rise.

D) All the colleges in Oxford were established in 12th century.

Passage Two

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

Sometimes we like things loose, unstructured, in blue jeans. Sometimes we like things precise, brilliant, and charming. This is the heart of ballet. By all logical assumptions, it should never have survived the French Revolution. An art form developed out of the formality of court life, it boasts an almost mathematical vocabulary of steps and gestures. Ballet in the past few hundred years has both evolved and remained still. Any city worth its charter supports a ballet company and at least one annual production of “The Nutcracker.” Productions of nineteenth-century classics have been a staple (主要内容) of “high” culture to a s mall but devoted audience. But the art form has witnessed some radical experimentation, as well. One of the half-dozen geniuses of the twentieth century, George Balanchine, blew the dust off traditional ballet. He made generous use of composers such as Bruckner, and Stravinsky. Ballet, Balanchine realized, like all great ballet enthusiasts, that the true soul of ballet is music.

What gives the dancing its most heartfelt pleasures are the dancers, their athleticism evidence of what perfection the human body is capable of, their grace of an elegant, physical representation of the music itself. The intellectual thrill of ballet lies in watching the playing out of patterns, the arresting power of a solo, the corps of 50 dancers moving on tiptoes in extreme unity. When all the elements work together, we leave the theater with our postures considerably improved.

31. According to the passage, ballet was developed ____.

A) in the imperial court C) during the French Revolution

B) for the masses D) after the French Revolution

32. It can be inferred from the passage that ballet’s steps and gestures are ____.

A) designed to be precise C) easy to understand

B) casual and emotional D) difficult to follow

33. Stravinsky was most probably a ____.

A) classic composer C) radical composer

B) contemporary composer D) generous composer

34. Balanchine will approve of the opinion that ____.

A) ballet should stick to the tradition

B) the traditional ballet should be thrown away

C) music is the most important element in ballet

D) only genius can understand modern ballet

35. The last sentence implies that ____.

A) we are stunned by the performance of the ballet players

B) we try to imitate the ballet players

C) we are affected by the beautiful postures of the ballet players

D) we used to have ugly postures

Passage Three

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

For anybody who ever failed a maths test, something marvellous happened in Stockholm on December 10, 2000. A soft-spoken fellow from Kansas －a guy who was turned down by the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) because his maths scores were too low and who never had much formal physics training －received the Nobel Prize in physics. This is slightly ironical, because Jack St Clair Kilby is not a physicist.

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences was willing to overlook that minor detail, though, because Kilby did, after all, come up with the most valuable invention of the past half-century: the microchip. Jack Kilby’s idea sparked the information age. The tiny silicon chip at the heart of all digital devices has arguably become the most important industrial commodity since crude oil. Without the chip, there could be no personal computers or mobile phones, no Internet or Play-Stations. The semiconductor integrated circuit has changed the world as fundamentally as did the light bulb, the telephone and the horseless carriage. But somehow the man who made the microchip has never achieved the recognition that Edison, Bell and Ford enjoyed. Thanks to the Nobel Prize, at age 78, Jack Kilby finally received the attention he deserved.

36. Kilby is a(n) ____.

A) American B) Frenchman C) Swedish D) Englishman

37. Kilby won the Nobel Prize for ____.

A) his great research done in MIT

B) he is an excellent physicist

C) he has had much formal training in physics

D) he invented the microchip

38. It was the invention of ____ that brought about the information age.

A) telephone B) microchip C) light bulb D) assembly line

39. Before the invention of the microchip, ____ was the most important industrial commodity.

A) telephone B) light bulb C) automobile D) crude oil

40. The achievements made by Kilby were finally recognized ____.

A) by his winning of Nobel Prize C) after he died

B) after the widespread of computers D) when he was admitted by MIT

Script of Listening Comprehension

each.

Q: What does the man mean?

2. W: Should we have lunch together today? I’ll be downtown.

M: I can’t. I’m really going to be tied up today.

Q: What does the man mean?

3. W: Pardon me, please, but how can I find the non-fiction works?

M: Well, all the works are categorized in colors. The red catalogs label all those science-fictions while the blue ones label non-fictions.

Q: What is the probable relationship between the man and the woman?

4. W: Sam seems to have become dependent on alcohol these days after he lost his first job.

M: We must find some effective ways to stop him. It’s so harmful, you know?

5. W: Have you planted your vegetable garden yet?

M: I’m waiting for it to quit raining so much.

Q: What is the problem?

6. W: I like traveling by air to different places. Don’t you?

W: Well, he said he’d be here at 8:30. But if I know, it would be at least nine o’clock.

Q: What conclusion can you draw from the woman’s statement?

Now you’ll hear the long conversations.

Conversation One

W: I just come to pick up my plastic container that I lent you the other day.

M: Oh, right. Well, I’ve just washed it ac tually, so here you are.

W: Thanks. So did you like that potato salad I made you?

M: It was really nice. I’m not sure how you made it, but I enjoyed it. I wish I could cook like you can.

W: So do you want to go out for dinner again this Saturday?

M: Oh, that sounds like a really good idea, but I’ve had a date.

W: Well, let’s find another day. Um, last time, last week I think we went to “Joyful”, right?

M: Yeah, that’s right. We had rice and things like that. Is that right?

W: Mm-hm, and I think I might have had a hamburger, or something like that.

M: Oh, yes, you did. So, where do you think we should go this time?

W: Uh, I don’t know. Do you want to go for sushi again?

M: Oh, I really like sushi. Yeah.

W: Yeah, the re’s that other sushi shop that we haven’t gone to yet.

M: Ok, well, we could walk there and walk back and we could get some exercise at the same time.

W: Oh, that’s a great idea.

M: Yeah, and then we wouldn’t feel so bad when we’re greedy.

W: Hm, for sure. And then we’ll organize it for tomorrow night.

M: Alright. Bye-bye.

The following questions are based on the conversation you have just heard.

9. What does the woman want back from the man?

10. What did the woman have for last dinner?

11. Where did they eat out last time?

12. When are they dining out again?

M: Good afternoon. Are you Cindy Wilson?

W: Yes, I am.

M: I’m Johnny’s father.

W: Oh, yes. Please have a seat. We have a lot to talk about.

M: All right. What’s the problem?

W: Johnny has probably told you how hard I’ve been coming down on him. I don’t want to have anything against your son. It’s just that I think he should work hard. His grades are not good.

M: Really, Ms. Wilson? I didn’t know he was doing poorly.

W: He daydreams in class all the time instead of doing his assignments. Actually he’s so talented that he can do an excelle nt job. I’m glad you’re here so that we can talk about the problem. Do you have any ideas?

M: Well, the only thing I can think of is that he’s at an awkward age. Everything in him is changing. He seems different from what he used to be. He’s always restless. My wife and I can never get him to sit still for one minute ― not even during meals. Is adolescence that difficult for children?

W: Well, that may be it.

The following questions are based on the conversation you have just heard.

13. Where does the conversation take place?

14. Why has the woman been coming down on Johnny?

15. Did the man know Johnny is doing poorly?

16. What does the man think of Johnny?

Section B

Passage One

People usually want more leisure time on the job itself. In fact, in some countries, like England, the midmorning and midafternoon tea break is a tradition. England is a tea-drinking country. People there don’t really have a coffee break, but the tea break is very important -- usually midmorning about eleven o’clock, and usually in the afternoon again at about three o’clock. This is a very important tradition. In fact, when the tea bre ak has been shortened in a number of factories, strikes have occurred, because the traditional fifteen minutes is required. And it’s a very important part of the day when people can put down tools and get together and have a chat.

The following questions are based on the passage you have just heard.

17. What habit do English people have?

18. When do they have their breaks in the day?

19. How long does the break last?

Passage Two

I came to Japan as a summer school student some five years or so ago, and at that time I had no plans to study Japanese. I landed at Haneda Airport, at about four thirty in the morning, and I looked around without the slightest idea of where to go, when somebody from the plane walked up to me and said to me, “Hey, where are you going now?” I was happy to follow his suggestion, so we both went to Kyoto. And when I got to Kyoto, I came to find out that this young fellow had a Chinese and Japanese major and he had come to Japan to study Japanese. And he said to me, “Well, why don’t you come with me and study Japanese at this particular school in Kyoto for intensive language learning?”

The following questions are based on the passage you have just heard.

20. How long has the narrator been in Japan?

21. What was the narrator’s plan when he came to Japan?

22. What was the young fellow who made the suggestion?

Passage Three

When he heard a knock on the door, Gregory knew that he had delayed too long. It was his brother who had invited him to play tennis, and he was not ready as promised. David, his brother, was an impatient person and Gregory knew better than to take too long to get ready.

Next came David’s sharp voice: “Aren’t you ready yet, Greg?” “What takes you so long! You should have been ready 10 minutes ago. Are you coming or not?”

Gregory opened the door of his room to face David, who was dressed in tennis clothes with a racket in his hand.

“I’m ready, Dave, I’m ready! Cool down. I couldn’t find one of my tennis shoes, and the shoestring broke on the other one.” David believed in quickness. Time was not to be wasted. He had things to do and he wanted to do them on time. In fact, Gregory thought that quickness had almost become a fetish with him. Gregory closed the door of his room and the two of them hurried down the stairs and out into the bright morning sunlight.

The following questions are based on the passage you have just heard.

23. When did David begin to blame Gregory?

24. Which of the following is true?

25. What can we learn about David from this passage?

题目部分，(卷面共有3题,21.0分,各大题标有题量和总分) 一、Fill in the Blanks with the Right Word（实词填空）(1小题,共1.0分) 1．(0.5分) These charges and interest rates are va_______ and the Bank reserves the right to change them from time to time. 二、Reading Comprehension 阅读理解(2小题,共20.0分) 1．(10分)Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. In the United States a university professor is given a few months of freedom from his duties about every seventh year for travel or advanced study. This period of freedom from teaching is called a “study or research leave”. Its purpose is to give the professor experiences which will make him a wiser person and a better teacher when he returns to his university. Few study leaves are interesting enough to be described in national newspapers and magazines. Recently, however, there was an exception. The public learned how Dr. John R. Coleman, president of Haverford College, had spent his study leave. At the age of 51, Dr. Coleman was determined to escape from university life for a few months and to get a variety of experiences in the world of work. He especially wanted to learn about people. People who do hard physical labor were especially interesting to him. “I wanted to get away from the world of words and political matters and parties – the things a president does,” Dr. Coleman later explained to news writers. “As a college president you begin to take yourself very seriously and to think you have power you don't. You forget things about people. I wanted to relearn things I’d forgotten.” Telling no on e of his plans, Dr. Coleman started his study leave on a farm in Canada, hundreds of miles from his college. Getting up at 4:30 each morning, working thirteen hours a day in fields, he prepared himself physically for his next job, digging ditches in Atlanta, GeorgiA、 After that, the college president washed dishes ina Boston restaurant. During the last ten days of his leave, he worked as a garbage collector. 1. The first paragraph is mainly about _______________. A、why a professor should be free from his duties every seventh year B、how professors spend their study leave C、what a study leave is and its purpose D、how a study leave makes a professor a wiser person and a better teacher 2. A study leave is a period of freedom from duties allowed to a university teacher who has taught ________ since his last leave. A、for six years B、for seven years C、for a term D、for a university year 3. People learned about Dr. Coleman's unusual experiences from ________. A、his colleagues B、the boss of a Boston restaurant C、the Canadian newspapers and magazines D、the U.S. newspapers and magazines 4. Dr. Coleman carried out his study leave in an unusual way because ________. A、he hates his university life, especially his job as a president B、he wanted to learn about people, especially people who do hard physical labor

Reading Comprehension (20’) Passage 1 Libraries have traditionally been the public `s access to the important sources of information that are necessary to function in today `s highly technical world. That function has been called into question by the fast-paced development of digital media over the past several decades. In order to continue to fulfill the public interest, libraries everywhere are forced to develop means of granting access to these expensive new services to average citizens. In the past, the publishing industry maintained the rights of the libraries to freely distribute published materials because the libraries bought so many of their books. Because the new electronic publication can easily be copied in their entirety by the patrons of library, the publishing industry is reconsidering its former advocacy of the library system. There have even been attempts to stop libraries from distributing digital media. In addition to waning(衰落的) cooperation of the publishing industry, there is the problem that the newer forms of information are much more specialized than those which they replace. Deciding how to divert already limited resources is increasingly difficult as the options multiply. Whereas a single reference index may have covered an entire field in the past, now there are frequently several specialized indexes available in electronic form. In order to continue to make use of the newer technology, the libraries must decide which materials are most useful to the majority of their patrons. There are many different solutions being applied, but only the process of trial and error will determine the most effective strategy. 21. The best title for this text would be ____ A. The Challenge for Today `s libraries B. Information Technology and the Consumer C. The Benefits of the Digital Revolution D. Changes in Information Technology 22. It can be inferred that the problem with the new technology is that _____ A. it is not intended for use by libraries B. it is too complicated C. it is not as useful as traditional books D. it is used as a political tool 23. In the second paragraph, the word “ maintained ” most closely means ____ A. taken care of B. supported C. used D. announced 24. Why did publishers cooperate with the libraries in the past?
