8、ons or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1 How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old peo
9、ple wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents,
10、 he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child things that have lost their interest for older people because they are
11、 too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, an
12、d his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps
13、out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society. 21. According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that _. A. life for a child is comparatively easy B. a child is always loved whatever he does C. if much is given to a child, he
14、 must do something in return D. only children are interested in life 22. After a child grows up, he_. A. will have little time playing B. has to be successful in finding a job C. can still ask for help in time of trouble D. should be able to take care of himself 23. Which of the following statements
15、 is NOT true according to the passage? A. People are often satisfied with their life. B. Life is less interesting for old people. C. Adults are freer to do what they want to do. D. Adults should no longer rely on others. 24. The main idea of the passage is that _. A. life is not enjoyable since each
16、 age has some pains B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard C. child hood is the most enjoyable time in ones life D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life 25. The paragraph following the passage will most probably discuss _. A. examples of success
17、ful young men B. how to build up ones position in society C. joys and pains of old people D. what to do when one has problems in life - 2 - Passage 2 Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different from i
18、t. And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted (曲解) one. Here is a great argument in favor of foreign travel and learning foreign languages. It is only by traveling in, or living in a county and getting to know its inhabitants and their la
19、nguage that one can find out what a country and its people are really like. And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be true from the second-hand information gathered from other sources! How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different peop
20、le from ourselves are not very different after all! Differences between peoples do of course, exist and, one hopes, will always continue to do so. The world will be a dull place indeed when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike, and some people might say that we are rapidly approachin
21、g this state of affairs. With the much greater rapidity and ease of travel, there might seem to be some truth in this at least as far as Europe is concerned. However this may be, at least the greater ease of travel today has revealed to more people than ever before that the Englishman or Frenchman o
22、r German is not some different kind of animal from themselves. 26. Every country criticizes ways of life in other countries because they are _. A. distorted B. normal C. similar to each other D. different from its own 27. One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will _. A. find o
23、ut what its people are like B. argue in favor of this country and the language C. know the country and its people better D. like its inhabitants and their language 28. The knowledge one gains by traveling in a foreign county is often _. A. from second-hand information B. gathered from other sources
24、than from its inhabitants C. gained from the arguments about the country D. different from what one had before the travel 29. Differences between peoples _. A. will gradually disappear because of ease of travel B. do exist even though different nationalities behave exactly alike C. will always conti
25、nue to exist and the world will be a dull place D. will not exist as one hopes 30. The underlined word “However” most probably means _. A. somewhat B. by whatever means C. anyhow D. no matter what Passage 3 We arranged that Kissinger would fly to Vietnam for talks early in July and then stop in Paki
26、stan on the way back. There he would develop a stomachache that would require him to stay in bed and not be seen by the press. Then, with President Yahyas cooperation he would be taken to an airport where a Pakistan plane would fly him over the mountains to China. Kissingers trip was given the code(
27、密码) name Polo after Marco Polo, another Western traveler who made history by journeying to China. Everything went without a hitch. His slight illness in Islamabad received only minor attention from reporters covering him. They accepted the story that he would be confined to bed for at least a couple
28、 of days and began making arrangements for their own entertainment. Because of the need for complete secrecy and the lack of any direct communication facilities between Beijing and Washington, I knew that we would have no word from Kissinger while he - 3 - was in China. Even after he had returned to Pakistan it would still be important to maintain secrecy. So before Kissinger left, we agreed on a single code word Eureka which he would use if his mission were successful. On July 11, Al Haig, who knew our code word, phoned me to say that a cable from
