Part III. Reading Comprehension (30%) (30 minutes)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions 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

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.

Research shows that the average high school student will study four hours per week for any major test. The outcome of this four hours of study varies from an A to an F, which means that in high school grades are strongly determined by intelligence since everyone studies the same amount of time.

But college is different. Most of the students are highly intelligent and each has plenty of time for self-study. To score high on any test, a college student has to work hard and, probably

more importantly, know how to use his or her time most efficiently. The problem is that your study habits formed in high school may make you unable to study well in college because you have never experienced what it takes to perform at the college level. That is why the freshman year is the hardest year for all college students.

Based on my extensive observation of student performances on college tests, I recommend the following study time per test: 6 hours per week for an A, 4 hours for a B, 3.5 hours for a C, 2.5 hours for a D and 0 hours for an F. An hour of study is defined as studying for 45 minutes and a break of 15 minutes. Ten hours of continuous study without a break is defined as one hour of study. The brain does not process and store information the way students prefer studying. Occasionally, some succeed by studying at the last minute, but they are exceptions to the rule.

Research also suggests that the slowest 10 percent of the students may need 5 to 6 times as much time to learn the same material as the fastest 10 percent. Each person is very likely to have strengths and weaknesses. Overcoming your weakness increases your strength.

56. According to the writer, the reason why high school students get different test results is that

________.

A. some students have good study habits while others do not

B. some students work harder than the rest of them

C. their intelligence varies from person to person

D. their teachers teach them in different ways

57. The freshman year is considered the hardest for all college students because ________.

A. they feel worried among so many intelligent people

B. they are too anxious to score high on all tests

C. they don’t know yet how to study at the college level

D. they have to take a lot of courses at the same time

58. In order to study efficiently, the writer suggests that one should ________.

A. spend 10% of his time on the most difficult subjects

B. set aside 1/4 of the studying time for break

C. take a one-hour rest after 10 hours of study

D. study 6 hours and then take a good rest

59. What takes the fastest students to learn in one hour may take the slowest students ________.

A. 3 hours

B. 2 hours

C. 4 hours

D. 5 hours

60. From the way this passage is written, it can be concluded that the writer is most probably

________.

A. a high school teacher

B. a college student

C. a high school student

D. a college teacher

Passage 2

Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.

A soap is a popular television drama serial（连续剧）about the daily lives and problems of a group of people. The stories make viewers laugh, cry and wait to see what happens next. Thus, viewers would come.

For some soap fans, it is like the end of the world when “Another World” ends after 35-year run. That’s because soaps these days can’t satisfy devoted viewers. Altogether, daily viewers have decreased from 69.6 million to 48.8 million since 1991. For instance, ABC’s “All My Children” drew 8.3 million in 1991, now 4.5 million.

One reason is that soaps are difficult in an era marked by various electronic games. Girls who used to watch daytime dramas with their mothers now go to their rooms where they can watch cable on their own TV set, or play video games, or wander on the Internet. Besides, the audience was too old, at 47 on average. TV stations have to get the right viewers because women, from 18 to 49, have the income to buy the things pushed by advertisers. It’s gotten to the point where it’s financially driven.

But networks aren’t about to drop soaps, as long as advertisers like them so much. It’s very efficient and cheap to spread heavily a number of ads. On the other hand, there’s not much to replace them. Talk and other shows have a bad record, and they don’t reach a concentrated female audience. The channels believe that they will attract younger viewers, the next generation of soap watchers, by starring new characters and putting in fresh blood into plot（情节）lines. There’s no secret. People want a good story.

61. What is NOT true about “Another World”?

A. It is a TV series.

B. It has been on for 35 years.

C. Some viewers feel sorry for the end of their favorite TV series.

D. Its producers have been threatened for stopping it.

62. Soaps have lost _______ daily viewers since 1991.

A. less than 20,00,000

B. 20,000,000

C. over 20,000,000

D. over 2,000,000

63. The soap industry has to work harder to attract the audience for the following reasons except

that ________.

A. advertisers and faithful viewers need it

B. other TV shows are much better and going to beat the soap

C. there are various means of enjoyment

D. the young generation don’t like soaps

64. What does the author mean by “putting in fresh blood into the plot lines”?

A. To add violence to the story.

B. To create attractive events which make up the story.

C. To add some new words to the story.

D. To make the story look real.

65. The main idea of the passage is about ________.

A. the present condition and prospect of soaps

B. soap’s decline in viewers

C. profits brought by soaps through advertisements

D. a brief history of soaps’ development

Passage 3

Questions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage.

My grandson, Daniel, and I have always been very close. When Daniel's father remarried after a divorce, Daniel, who was eleven, and his little sister, Kristie, came to live with us. My husband and I were more than happy to have kids in the house again.

Things were going along just fine until the diabetes( 糖尿病) I've lived with most of my adult life started affecting my eyes. And then more seriously, my kidney(肾), Then everything seemed to fall apart.

Three times a week, I had to go to the hospital to be hooked up to a dialysis machine (透析机.). I was living, but I couldn't really call it a life -- it was an existence. I had no energy. I dragged myself through my daily chores (家庭杂事) and slept as much as I could, My sense of humor seemed to disappear.

Daniel, seventeen by then, was really affected by the change in me. He tried as hard as he could to make me laugh, to bring back the grandma who loved to clown around(开玩笑) with him. Even in my sorry state, Daniel could still bring a smile to my face.

But things were not improving. After a year on dialysis, My condition was deteriorating(恶化) and the doctors felt that if I didn't receive a kidney transplant within six months, I would surely die. Ne one told Daniel this, but he knew -- he said all he had to do was rock after me, To top it off (更糟糕的是), as my condition worsened, there was a chance I would become too weak to have the transplant surgery at all, and then there would be nothing they could do for me. So we started the tense and desperate wait for a kidney.

I was adamant（坚决的) that I didn't want a kidney from anyone I knew. I would wait until an appropriate kidney became available, or I would literally die waiting. But Daniel had other plans. The time that he took me to my dialysis appointments, he did a little secret research on his own. Then he announced his intentions to me.

We argued. I couldn't let him do it. We both knew that if he gave up his kidney, he'd also give up his life's dream: to play football. That boy ate, drank and slept football. It was all he ever

talked about. And he was good, too. Daniel was co-captain and star defensive tackle( 防守阻截队员 ) of his high school team; he expected to apply for a football scholarship and was looking forward to playing college football. He just loved the sport.

After that, I couldn't argue anymore. So we agreed to see if he was a good donor(~;~4,~-) match, and then we'd discuss it further. When the tests came back, they showed Daniel was a perfect match. That was it. I knew I wasn't going to win that argument, so we scheduled the transplant.

Both surgeries went smoothly. As soon as I came out of the anesthesia(麻醉), I could tell things were different. I felt great! The nurses in the intensive care unit had to keep telling me to lie back and be quiet--- I wasn't supposed to be that lively! I was afraid to go to sleep, for fear I would break the spell (破除魔法) and wake up the way I had been before. But the good feeling didn't go away and I spent the evening joking and laughing with anyone who would listen. It was so wonderful to feel alive again !

The next day, they moved me out of ICU and onto the floor where Daniel was recuperating( 复原 ) three doors away. His grandfather helped him walk down to see me as soon as I was moved into my room. When we saw each other, we didn't know what to say. Holding hands, we just sat there and looked at each other for a long time, overwhelmed by the deep feeling of love that connected us.

Finally, he spoke.

I laughed a little ruefully(懊悔).

66. Grandma's diabetes brought about all the following EXCEPT that _________.

A) her eyes and her kidneys were affected

B) grandma became quite a different person

C) Daniel had to be sent back home to his father

D) everything was thrown into confusion

67. When grandma was at her lowest, what did Daniel do to bring her back to her usual self?

A) He tried his best to make her laugh.

B) He helped her with the daily chores.

C) He gave up his dream of going to college.

D) He searched desperately for a good donor match.

68. How did grandma feel when Daniel announced his intention to give her one of his kidneys?

A) She was moved by Daniel's selfless decision.

B) She wasn't at all happy with Daniel's offer.

C) She felt relieved that an appropriate kidney was available.

D) She was enthusiastic about carrying the kidney of someone she loved.

69. What would giving up a kidney mean to Daniel, according to the passage?

A) He wouldn't be young and healthy thereafter.

B) He didn't have to search for a good match any more.

C) He could apply for a full scholarship to a college he desired.

D) He would also give up his life's dream: to play football.

70. How was grandma when she came out of the anesthesia after the surgery?

C) She was lethargic(无精打采).

D) She was the way she had been before.
