Ⅲ. Reading Comprehension(30 points，2 points each)

从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题纸上将相应的字母涂黑。

Passage One

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

It was a quiet village in which there was a military camp. It was far from the towns and cities and there were some high mountains around. Of course it was a good place for training the new soldiers. But it was difficult for the young men to go outside. Mr. White, an officer of forty, was strict with them and he hardly let them leave the camp.

Once Mr. White was ill in bed. He couldn't work and a young officer, Mr. Hunt, began to train the new soldiers instead of him. He knew the young men well and let nine soldiers go to the nearest town to have a holiday. But night fell and none came back to the camp. He was worried about it and stood at the gate. It was five to twelve when Mr. Hunt decided to go to the town and see what was happening with the young men. He started the car quickly and set off. At that moment the nine soldiers came back. It seemed they were all drunk. Of course they found the officer was angry.

"I'm sorry, sir," said the first soldier. "I left the town on time. But something was wrong with my bus on my way here. I had to buy a horse and made it run fast. Bad luck! It died and I had to run back."

And the other seven soldiers said they were late for the same reasons. It was the last soldier's turn. He said, "I'm sorry, sir. I got on a bus on time, but…"

Having heard this, the officer became even angrier and stopped him at once. He called out, "If you say something was wrong with your bus, I'll punish you at once!"

"No, no, sir," said the young man. "My bus was all right, but the dead horses were in its way!"

21. The military camp was built in the village to _______.

24. The nine soldiers returned to the camp late because _______.

A. something was wrong with their buses

D. The officer won't punish his soldiers.

Passage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage

Business people often spend time and money improving their ability to use foreign languages in order to be able to communicate with other business people from around the world. Language, of course, is very important, but it is only half the problem.

When we are doing business with people of other cultures, there are always rules that we cannot notice easily. And this often results in making mistakes which will make our foreign friends unhappy.

In the West, business cards are given a quick look and put into the pocket. In Japan, they are highly regarded, looked at carefully and left on the table during a business meeting.

In Britain, most business meetings would include a joke. In many other countries, this would be very rare.

Small talk and relationship building are considered very important in some parts of the world; people talk about the weather, the wine and other small things before they begin to talk about business. In other places, people get down to business immediately.

26. In order to communicate with other people from around the world, ______.

A. it is enough for one to know a foreign language

B. it is not enough for one to know a foreign language

27. If you are doing business with people of other cultures, you should ______.

30. Which of the following may be the best topic for this text?

A. How Japanese People Do Business B. Language and Culture

C. Culture and Business D. How Western People Do Business

Passage There

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage

Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, but most of them travel alone. And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere neat it. We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to come near our sun, Just as the sun and the moon raise tides(潮汐)on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun .But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wave must have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance(动荡) came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space.

These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets(行星).

31. Millions of stars are _______________.

A. following a regular path in space

B. moving about without a fixed course

C. seldom wandering about in the universe

D. always travelling together

32. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because __________.

A. a large tidal wave of a star travelled over the surface of the sun

B. another star happened to come near the sun

C. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earth

D. the star moved away from the sun

33. The article suggests that _____________ .

A. our earth exists before the sun

B. how space formed

C. no one knows where the earth comes from

D. our earth used to be a high mountain on the sun

34. The expression "the cause of the disturbance" refers to _________.

A. the large tidal wave

B. the powerful tidal pull

C. the star coming near the sun

D. one of the sun's planets

35. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers __________.

A. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine it

B. how the high mountains were formed on the sun

C. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerful

Then we should treat our friends with courtesy, be careful not to

interfere unreasonably with them,and not to ridicule their proceedings. We should forgive their failures and do our best to help them. In short, when we have established friendship, we ought to cherish and treasure it by means of words and deeds. Only thus, can we develop real friendship and keep the sacred lamp of friendship burning all our life.
