Passage
1
Why was Bastille
important to the citizens of Paris? The building of the Bastille
had been started in 1370 under Charles V. By the seventeenth century
it had stopped to be important for defense. Cardinal Richelieu
turned it into a prison. It was not an ordinary prison to punish
common crimes. Its huge doors closed only on enemies of the King.
The Bastille’s workings were secret. Prisoners were taken to it in
closed vehicles. Soldiers on guard duty had to stand with their
faces to the wall. No talking was allowed. Worst of all, a prisoner
never knew if he would be there a day, a week, a year, or forever.
Only the King’s letter could set him free.
Over the years
the number of arrests by King’s letter had become fewer. By the time
of its fall, most of the prisoners were writers who had written
against the corruptions (贪污腐败) of
the government. Voltaire, the famous French writer, spent a year
there in 1717-1718, and another 12 days in
1726.
For those who
believed in free speech and free thinking, the Bastille stood for
everything evil. The day it was captured, only seven prisoners were
found inside. Still, the Bastille was hated by the people. It was a
symbol of the King’s complete power.
31. The Bastille
became a prison ___________.
A. since the
time of Charles V
B. since
1370
C. in the
seventeenth century
D. since the
time of Cardinal Richelieu

the passage, which of the following statements is NOT
true?
A. Anyone who
did something wrong could find himself suddenly in the
Bastille.
B. The Bastille
was only for those who were opposed to the
King.
C. Things done
in the Bastille were hardly known to people
outside.
D. Voltaire was
twice put in the Bastille.
33. At the time
of its fall, the Bastille housed _____________.
A. a large
number of prisoners
B. a lot of
writers who had been against the government
C. some dozens
of people who believed in free speech and free
thinking
D. only a few
prisoners
34. Which of the
following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
A. All prisoners
in the Bastille had to stay there for life.
B. Over the years the number of
prisoners in the Bastille was getting bigger and
bigger.
C. The King
could put people in or let them out of the Bastille as he
wanted.

A. tells how the
prisoners were controlled by the King

Passage

The resources of the
library can be helpful even when we are doing something very
informal, such as trying to devise (设计) a
better way to measure attitudes toward music or looking for a better
way to teach mathematics. The library can be equally helpful when we
are doing something very formal, such as writing a dissertation
(学位论文) or preparing an article for
publication in a professional journal. In either case, our goal
should be to use the library as a useful tool to help us understand
and solve our problem.
The following sections of
this chapter will describe specific resources available in many
libraries. In some cases you may already be aware of a resource and
may use it frequently and successfully. In other cases you may be
completely unfamiliar with a resource. Your goal should be to become
aware of what is available and to know how to use each of these
resources to help you solve the problem they are designed to
solve.
When educators have a piece
of information that they want to share with their colleagues, they
often make this information available in professional journals or at
professional meetings. It would often be useful to have access to
such information, and this chapter will describe the special
services that enable us to locate such
information.
36. The library
resources can be helpful when we
______________.
A. want to find
a better way to measure attitudes toward music
B. are preparing
a paper for a professional journal
C. are writing a
dissertation
D. All of the
above
37. The
familiarity of readers with different resources
____________.
A. is more or
less the same
B. varies
slightly
C. differs
greatly
D. should not be
different
38. The author
believes that _______________.
A. library
resources should be used frequently and
completely
B. library
resources cannot be made good use of if they are not available to
us
C. one is
supposed to be aware of the library resources that are usually not
available
D. one is
supposed to have good knowledge and make good use of
resources
39. When
educators wish to share some information with their colleagues, they
often __________.
A. publish it in
a professional journal
B. get it from
professional meetings
C. get access to
it in the library

some library services
40. The chapter
where this passage is taken ______________.

information on publishing papers in professional
journals

some library services
D. describes
some professional meetings
Passage
3
What will man be
like in the future — in 5,000
or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course,
but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today,
for man is slowly changing all the
time.
Let us take an
obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than
he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller.
Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may
assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again in the modern
world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of
only about 20% of the brain’s capacity (容量). As
time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and
more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to
bring about a physical change too: the head, in particular the
forehead, will grow larger.
Nowadays our eyes
are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often
they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long
period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow
stronger.
On the other
hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a
result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our
fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal
in modern life.
But what about
hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in
course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any
longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be
bald.
Perhaps all this
gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive
creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite
of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common
with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions
similar to our own.
41. The size of
man’s forehead will probably grow bigger because
_______.
A. he will use
his brain more and more as time goes on
B. he makes use
only 20% of the brain’s capacity
C. his brain has
grown larger over the past centuries
D. the other 80%
of his brain will grow in due time
42. What serves
as the evidence that man is changing?
A. Man has got
stronger eyes now than he ever had.
B. Man has been
growing taller over the past 500 years.
C. Man’s hair is
getting thinner and thinner.
D. Man’s arms
and legs have become lighter and weaker.
43. What will be
true about a human being in the future?
A. He will be
hairless because hair is no longer useful.
B. He will have
smaller eyes and will wear better glasses.
C. His fingers
will grow weaker because he won’t have to make use of
them.
D. He will think
and feel in a different way.
44. It is
implied that __________________.
A. human beings
will become more attractive in the future
B. body organs
will become poorer if they are not used often
C. human beings
hope for a change in the future life
D. future life
is always predictable
45. The passage
mainly tells us that _______________.
A. man’s life
will be different in the future
B. man is
growing taller and uglier as time passes
C. future man
will look quite different from us
D. human beings’
organs will function weaker

passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with
a single line through the center.
What do we
mean by a perfect English pronunciation? In one sense there are as
many different kinds of English as there are speakers of it.
61 two speakers speak in
exactly the same way. We can always hear differences 62 them, and the pronunciation
of English shifts a great deal in different geographical 63 . How do we decide
what sort of English to use as a model? This is not a question that
can be 64 in the same way
for all foreign learners of
English.
65 you live in a
part of the world like India or West
Africa, where there is a long 66 of speaking English for
general communication purpose, you should tend to acquire a good
67 of the pronunciation of this
area. On the other hand, if you live in a country
68 there is no traditional use
of English, you must take as your model some form of native English
pronunciation. It does not 69 very much which form you
choose. The most effective way is to take as your model the sort of
English you can 70 most
often.
