Passage 1

The elevator door slid open. The crowd inside let out a collective gasp of excitement. But no one was more excited than my mom. This 110-pound woman is not normally rude, but suddenly she rushed through the door, nearly knocking over an elderly German tourist.

My mom wasn’t interested in the sights; she just wanted air. If there’s one thing that frightens my mom more than packed spaces, it’s heights. We were now 889 feet above the Paris cityscape. Maybe we should have taken the Eiffel Tower off our “to do”list.

By the time I caught up with her, she had pressed her entire body against a huge steel girder(大梁). I couldn’t help but laugh.

“What?” she said defensively, her arms wrapped around the support and her face flushed. “I’m having a great time. ”

“Yeah, I can tell. Let’s go, ”I said.

My mom replied,“I can’t. ” Amidst the twinkling reflection of the City of Lights, I saw terror in her eyes. She was so scared of heights, she couldn’t move.

I was going to have to think of something—and fast. “I know, Mom!”I shouted, making her jump. “We don’t have to get back in the elevator. We can walk all the way down. ” Before she could think about it, I took her arm and led her over to the stairs.

Finally, after 20 minutes, we headed down the last flight. “See? That wasn’t so bad. ”

I pushed on the steel exit gate. The gate didn’t move. I felt a fit of panic. I pushed again, still no movement. I shoved again and again against the gate. Out of breath, I felt on the verge of tears.

“Qu’est-ce que c’est la probleme?”

A young French security guard stood on the other side of the gate. He repeated his question. The fact that I didn’t understand French only made me panic more. I banged violently on the door, and rocked against it—still nothing.

The guard smiled now. He pointed up and said in English, “The sign. Read it. ”I followed his pointing finger to a sign that hung above the gate. It said:“Tirez.” I looked at the guard blankly. What did that mean?

“The sign,” the guard told me. “It says, Pull. ”

Stepping back, I stopped pushing the gate. I pulled instead. It swung open easily. Now my face burned with embarrassment, not panic.

“Karen, you really need to learn to relax,” my mom said, laughing as she breezed past me.

21. Karen laughed at her mom because _____________ .

A. she was too nervous

B. she was too excited

C. she was having a great time

D. she was standing against a huge girder

22. Which of the following did Karen’s mom suffer from?

A. Fear of stairs and strangers.

B. Fear of elevators and crowds.

C. Fear of heights and crowded places.

D. Fear of twinkling lights and steel girders.

23. When she saw her mom rushing out of the elevator, Karen _____________ .

A. thought it funny

B. regretted visiting the Tower

C. decided to go down the stairs immediately

D. felt embarrassed about her mother’s rudeness

24. What triggered Karen’s fear?

A. She couldn’t understand the guard’s directions.

B. She thought she and her mom were locked in.

C. She couldn’t read the sign in French.

D. She saw terror in her mom’s eyes.

progress that travel while

Tourism is an important industry in many countries. Humans have traveled 51 since they first appeared on earth. Tourism, however, did not go 52 in hand with travel in the beginning.

In primitive times, people did not 53 for pleasure but to find new places for their herds to feed, to escape 54 hostile neighbors, or to find a more favorable climate. They traveled on 55. Their journeys were long, tiring, and often dangerous. With the 56 of society, they did not travel merely out of necessity, 57 Often for the joy and excitement of seeing and experiencing new things. In every country in the world, there are beautiful sights to visit. It 58 be a beautiful mountain, a national park, a historical monument, or a cathedral.

In fact, tourism has become an important source of income for many countries.

In ten minutes I had seen all that could be seen in the fish, and started to look for the professor—who had, however, left. Half an hour 61—an hour—another hour; the fish began to look disgusting. I 62 it over and around; looked it in the face—ghastly; 63 behind, beneath, above, sideways—just 64 ghastly. I must not use a magnifying glass, 65 instruments of any kind. Just my two hands, my two eyes, and the fish: it seemed a most limited field of 66. With a feeling of desperation again I looked at that fish. I pushed my finger down its throat to feel how 67 the teeth were. I began to count the scales in 68 rows, until I was convinced that was nonsense. At last a happy thought 69 me—I would draw the fish; and now with surprise I began to discover new 70 in the creature. Just then the professor returned.

Passage 1

Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to risk of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the ship-owner knows that his ships may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire nor every ship is lost at sea. If these persons each put a small sum into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contribution are known as insured and those who administer the pool of contributions as insurers.

The legal basis of all insurance is the policy. This is a printed form of contract on a piece of paper in best quality. It states that every year the insured shall pay a named sum of money, which is called the premium; in return, the insurer will pay a sum of money or compensation for loss if the risk or event insured against actually happens.

The premium for an insurance naturally depends upon how likely the risk is to happen, as suggested by past experience. If companies fix their premiums too high, there will be more competition in their area of insurance and they may lose business. On the other hand, if they make the premium too low, they will lose money and may even have to drop out of business. So the ordinary forces of supply and demand keep premiums at a level satisfactory to both the insurer and the insured.

21. By “the pool of contributions” (Para. 1) the writer means______.

A. money paid by the insurers

B. the amount of each premium

C. money paid by all those insured

D. the cost of administering insurance

22. A policy is ______.

A. a named sum of money

B. a kind of legal agreement

C. a printed form of payment

D. a particular kind of insurance

23. Insurance premiums do not become too high because ______.

A. not many people insure themselves

B. premiums depend on the risk of loss

C. insurers have to be more competitive

D. insurance companies can never lose money

24. According to the passage, insurance business is profitable because ______.

A. nearly everyone suffers losses

B. only insured people suffer losses

C. everyone at some time suffers losses

D. only a few of those insured suffer losses

25. The purpose of the passage is ______.

A. to define an insurance policy

B. to introduce insurance business

C. to persuade people to be insured

D. to warn people of possible losses

Passage 2

One evening I went out and left my 17-year-old son in charge of his 8-year-old brother and 4-year-old sister. On this occasion, the chore was made less troublesome by the presence of his girlfriend. I left with complete confidence that the older children would do a wonderful job of babysitting the younger children and the younger children would do a wonderful job of accompanying the older ones. Later, I discovered that complete confidence was the last thing I should have left home with.

I had decided to return home earlier than planned so that my son and his girlfriend could go out. I called home with this happy news. But instead of hearing his cheerful, grateful voice on the other end of the line, all I heard was the sound of a telephone ringing.

It was, I should point out, after 10 p.m., when the two younger children should have been in bed, and when the two older children should have been answering the phone. “I’ll give him a lesson,” I said. I decided they must be outside. Why they might be outside at 10:30 on a wintry night I had no idea, but it was the only explanation I could come up with.

Finally, in desperation, I called his girlfriend’s house. After what seemed like countless rings, his girlfriend answered. “Yes,” she said brightly, “He’s right here.”

He came on the phone. I was not my usual calm, rational self. After all, one of the rules of survival for modern parents is that you can’t trust modern teenagers. “Where are the children?”

I said. He said they were with him. They had done nothing wrong. My son had taken the younger children over to his girlfriend’s house just for ice cream and cake. This was too wholesome to be believed. Well, it turns out that I shouldn’t have believed it. It was only part of the truth.

The following Saturday evening we were at my parents’ home, celebrating my birthday. My oldest son gave me the children’s gifts. Mounted and framed were a series of lovely color photographs of my children, dressed in their best clothes, and wearing their most wonderful expressions. They are pictures to treasure a lifetime, all taken by the father of my son’s girlfriend.

That was the most precious gift of all.

26. The author went out and left her eldest son in charge of the younger children because ______.

A. she knew that his girlfriend was a good baby-sitter

B. she could not find a baby-sitter on that winter night

C. the older children and the younger ones would get along well

D. she believed he was old enough to take care of the younger ones

27. Shortly after the author left home one evening, she discovered that ______.

A. her son had brought his girlfriend home

B. her son had left home with his girlfriend

C. she shouldn’t have completely trusted her son

D. she should have taken the children along with her

28. When the author called home ______.

A. no one answered the phone

B. she expected to hear some good news

C. her son’s girlfriend answered the phone

D. she heard a cheerful voice on the other end

29. The sentence “It was only part of the truth.” (Para. 5) implies that the children not only enjoyed ice-cream but also ______.

A. had a birthday party

B. framed some photographs

C. had their pictures taken

D. showed off their best clothes

30. Which of the following possible titles best expresses the main idea of this passage?

A. An Evening Out

B. Modern Teenagers

C. Mother and Children

D. A Precious Birthday Gift
