Passage 1
Places
to stay in
Hostels
Cheap,
good-value hostels are aimed at all types of like-minded travelers, who prefer
value over luxury and you don’t have to be young or single to use them.
Youth Hotels
Founded
many years ago to “help all, especially young people of limited means, to a
greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside”, the Youth Hotels
Association is still going strong in the 21st century. The network
of 230 hotels is a perfect gateway for exploring
B&Bs
The B&Bs (bed
and breakfasts) is a great British institution. In essence you get a room in
somebody’s house, and small B&Bs house, and small B&Bs may only have
one guest room, so you’ll really feel like part of the family. Larger B&Bs
may have four or five rooms and more facilities, but just as warm as a welcome.
In country areas
your B&Bs might be in a village or an isolated farm surrounded by fields. Prices
reflect facilities: and usually run from around ￡12 to ￡ 20 per person. City
B&Bs charge about ￡25 to ￡ 30 per person,
although they’re often cheaper as you go further out to the
suburbs.

Passage 2
What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning
that are different from those of others? The answer is “no”. It is not the
tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that make him a scientist. You
will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a
carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how
to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however,
goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to
his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also
works to fit the answer he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas
about how the world works.
The
scientist’s knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right
just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What
works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same
conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist
observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions.
This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert
Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory
through mathematics. The accuracy of this mathematics was later tested through
investigations, Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses
many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make
mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.
16. What makes a scientist according to the passage?
A. The
tools he uses. B.
The way he uses his tools.
C. His
way of learning. D. The
various tools he uses.
17. “The scientist, however, goes one step further…”.
The author says this to show _______.
A. the
importance of information
B. the
importance of thinking
C. the
difference between scientists and ordinary people
D. the
difference between carpenters and people with other jobs
18. A sound scientific theory should be one that
_______.
A.
works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under the same
conditions at other times
B. does
not allow any changes even under different conditions
C. can
be used for many purposes
D.
leave no room for improvement
19. The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to
illustrate _______.
A. that
measurements are keys to success in science
B. that
accuracy of mathematics
C. that
the investigations are important in science
D. that
the mathematical calculations may test his investigations
20. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The
theory of relativity.
B.
Exactness is the core of science.
C. Scientists
are different from ordinary people.
D.
Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.

Passage 3
A
characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to
respect the self-made man — the man who has
risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his
hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor
occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community
than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains
to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of
some sort.
This
attitude toward manual（体力的）labor is now still seen many aspects of American
life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even
luxuriously（豪华地）furnished and in which there is every
evidence of the fact the family has been able to afford foreign travel,
expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess
probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash
dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something
quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie
bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride
in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional may talk about washing
the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help
with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who
is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or
during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to
pay for his education.
21. From paragraph 1, we know that in
A.
people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made man
B.
people can always rise to the top through their own efforts
C.
college professors win great respect from common workers
D.
people feel painful to mention their fathers as labors
22. According to the passage, the hostess cooks
dinner herself mainly because _______.
A.
servants in American are hard to get B.
she takes pride in what she can do herself
C. she
can hardly afford servants D.
It is easy to prepare a meal with canned food
23. The expression “wait on table” in the second
paragraph means “_______”.
A. work
in a furniture shop B.
keep accounts for a bar
C. wait
to lay the table D.
serve customers in a restaurant
24. The author’s attitude towards manual（体力的）labor is
_______.
A.
positive B.
negative C.
humorous D.
critical
25. Which of the following may serve as the best
title of the passage?
A. A
Respectable Self-made Family. B.
American Attitude toward Manual Labor.
C.
Characteristics of American Culture. D.
The Development of Manual Labor.

My Opinion on Cell Phones
Cell
phones do play an important role in people’s daily life, but every coin has its
two sides.
To
start with, as a wireless mobile phone, it’s convenient for the user at any
time to contact others. Secondly, it’s helpful companion. With a
multifunctional cell phone in hand, one can easily surf the net, downloading
what he needs.
However,
the cell phone has many disadvantages. For one thing, the machine itself is very
expensive and its local service is very costly, not to mention its global
service. For another, the radiation from the mobile phones might do harm to the
user’s heath.
In
my opinion, with its expenses being reduced sharply after
