Passage 4
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
Culture shock is an occupational disease (职业病) for people who have been
suddenly transplanted abroad.
Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar
signs and symbols of social intercourse. Those signs are as following: when to
shake hands and what to say when meet people, when and how to give tips, how to
make purchases, when to accept and refuse invitations, when to take statements
seriously and when not. These signs, which may be words, gestures, facial
expressions, or customs, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up
and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we
accept. All of us depend on hundreds of these signs for our peace of mind and
day-to-day efficiency, but we do not carry most at the level of conscious
awareness.
Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these
familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded or full of good will you
may be a series of supports have been knocked from under you, followed by a
feeling of frustration. When suffering from culture shock people first reject
the environment which caused discomfort. The ways of the host country are bad
because they make us feel bad. When foreigners in a strange land get together in

probably react when he is frustrated by the culture shock?
A. He is most likely to refuse to absorb the strange environment at
first.
B. He is really to accept the change and adapt himself to the new
environment.
C. Although he takes the culture difference for granted, he still doesn’t

Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
The idea of a special day to honor mothers was first put forward in America
in 1907. two years later a woman, Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, in the state of
Washington proposed a similar day to honor the head of the family—the father.
Her mother died when she was very young, and her father brought her up. She
loved her father very much.
In response to Mrs. Dodd’s idea that same year—1909, the state governor of
Washington proclaimed (宣布) the third Sunday in June Father’s Day. The idea was
officially approved by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916. in 1924, President
Calvin Coolidge recommended national observance of the occasion “to establish
more intimate (亲密) relations between fathers and their children, and to impress
upon fathers the full measure of their obligations.” The red or white rose is
recognized as the official Father’s Day flower.
Father’s Day took longer to establish on a national scale than Mother’s Day,
but as the idea grained popularity, tradesmen and manufacturers began to see the
commercial possibilities. They encouraged sons and daughters to honor their
fathers with small thank-you presents, such as a tie or pair of socks, as well
as by sending greeting cards.
During the Second World War, American servicemen stationed in Britain began
to request Father’s Day greeting cards to send home. This generated a response
with British card publishers. Though at first the British public was slow to
accept this rather artificial day, it’s now well celebrated in Britain on the
third Sunday in June in much the same way as in America.
Father’s Day seems to be much less important as occasion than the Mother’s
Day. Not many of the children offer their fathers some presents. But the
American fathers still think they are much better fated than the fathers of many
other countries, who have not even a day for their sake in name only.
11. When did Father’s Day officially begin to have national popularity?
A. 1907 B. 1909 C. 1916 D. 1924
12. Who first started the idea of holding the Father’s Day?
A. Mrs. John Bruce Dodd B. Mrs. John Bruce’s Mother
C. The government of Washington. D. Some businessmen.
13. What flower will be popular on Father’s Day?
A. Lily B. Water Lily C. Red rose or white rose D. Sunflower.
14. Which statement is true, a according to this passage?
A. It took even longer for Mother’s Day to gain national popularity.
B. The businessmen helped to make Father’s Day popular.
C. Father’s Day is only celebrated in America.
D. Father’s Day is only a trick of the businessmen to make money.
15. What was the first reaction of the British publishing towards Father’s
Day?
A. They thought highly of it and accepted it at once.
B. They just accepted it at once without any hesitation.
C. They just thought it a joke.
D. They thought it was too artificial and took a long time to accept.

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was
so difficult to separate form the ores in which it was found that its price was
higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was
discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately
three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that
aluminum because practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and
pans.
Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By
mixing it with other metals, scientists have been able to produce a variety of
alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as
much.
Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use
is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engine of automobiles, in the
hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge
“airbus” planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not
exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the
amount of fuel needed to move them, Aluminum is also being used extensively in
the building industry in some countries.
Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite
(铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most
plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can
expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.
6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new
refining process with the aid of .
A. wind B. solar energy C. hydraulic power D. electricity

A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different forms

Passage 4
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
Successful innovations have driven many older technologies to extinction and
have resulted in higher productivity, greater consumption of energy, increased
demand of raw materials, accelerated flow of materials through the economy and
increased quantities of metals and other substances in use each person. The
history of industrial development abounds with examples.
In 1870, horses and mules were the prime source of power on U.S. farms. One
horse or mule was required to support four human beings a ratio that remained
almost constant for many decades. At that time, had a national commission been
asked to forecast the population for 1970, its answer probably would have
depended on whether its consultants were of an economic or technological turn of
mind. Had they been “economists”, they would probably have projected the 1970
horses or mule population to be more than 50 million. Had they been
“technologists”, they would have recognized that the power of steam had already
been harnessed to industry and to learn and ocean transport. They would have
recognized further that it would be the prime source of power on the farm. It
would have been difficult for them to avoid the conclusion that the horse and
mule population would decline rapidly.

Passage 4
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
Culture shock is an occupational disease (职业病) for people who have been
suddenly transplanted abroad.
Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar
signs and symbols of social intercourse. Those signs are as following: when to
shake hands and what to say when meet people, when and how to give tips, how to
make purchases, when to accept and refuse invitations, when to take statements
seriously and when not. These signs, which may be words, gestures, facial
expressions, or customs, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up
and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we
accept. All of us depend on hundreds of these signs for our peace of mind and
day-to-day efficiency, but we do not carry most at the level of conscious
awareness.
Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these
familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded or full of good will you
may be a series of supports have been knocked from under you, followed by a
feeling of frustration. When suffering from culture shock people first reject
the environment which caused discomfort. The ways of the host country are bad
because they make us feel bad. When foreigners in a strange land get together in

first.
B. He is really to accept the change and adapt himself to the new
environment.

Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
The idea of a special day to honor mothers was first put forward in America
in 1907. two years later a woman, Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, in the state of
Washington proposed a similar day to honor the head of the family—the father.
Her mother died when she was very young, and her father brought her up. She
loved her father very much.
In response to Mrs. Dodd’s idea that same year—1909, the state governor of
Washington proclaimed (宣布) the third Sunday in June Father’s Day. The idea was
officially approved by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916. in 1924, President
Calvin Coolidge recommended national observance of the occasion “to establish
more intimate (亲密) relations between fathers and their children, and to impress
upon fathers the full measure of their obligations.” The red or white rose is
recognized as the official Father’s Day flower.
Father’s Day took longer to establish on a national scale than Mother’s Day,
but as the idea grained popularity, tradesmen and manufacturers began to see the
commercial possibilities. They encouraged sons and daughters to honor their
fathers with small thank-you presents, such as a tie or pair of socks, as well
as by sending greeting cards.
During the Second World War, American servicemen stationed in Britain began
to request Father’s Day greeting cards to send home. This generated a response
with British card publishers. Though at first the British public was slow to
accept this rather artificial day, it’s now well celebrated in Britain on the
third Sunday in June in much the same way as in America.
Father’s Day seems to be much less important as occasion than the Mother’s
Day. Not many of the children offer their fathers some presents. But the
American fathers still think they are much better fated than the fathers of many
other countries, who have not even a day for their sake in name only.
11. When did Father’s Day officially begin to have national popularity?
A. 1907 B. 1909 C. 1916 D. 1924
12. Who first started the idea of holding the Father’s Day?
A. Mrs. John Bruce Dodd B. Mrs. John Bruce’s Mother
C. The government of Washington. D. Some businessmen.
13. What flower will be popular on Father’s Day?
A. Lily B. Water Lily C. Red rose or white rose D. Sunflower.
14. Which statement is true, a according to this passage?
A. It took even longer for Mother’s Day to gain national popularity.
B. The businessmen helped to make Father’s Day popular.
C. Father’s Day is only celebrated in America.
D. Father’s Day is only a trick of the businessmen to make money.
15. What was the first reaction of the British publishing towards Father’s
Day?
A. They thought highly of it and accepted it at once.
B. They just accepted it at once without any hesitation.
C. They just thought it a joke.
D. They thought it was too artificial and took a long time to accept.

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was
so difficult to separate form the ores in which it was found that its price was
higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was
discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately
three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that
aluminum because practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and
pans.
Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By
mixing it with other metals, scientists have been able to produce a variety of
alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as
much.
Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use
is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engine of automobiles, in the
hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge
“airbus” planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not
exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the
amount of fuel needed to move them, Aluminum is also being used extensively in
the building industry in some countries.
Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite
(铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most
plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can
expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.
6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new
refining process with the aid of .
A. wind B. solar energy C. hydraulic power D. electricity

A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different forms

Passage 4
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:
Successful innovations have driven many older technologies to extinction and
have resulted in higher productivity, greater consumption of energy, increased
demand of raw materials, accelerated flow of materials through the economy and
increased quantities of metals and other substances in use each person. The
history of industrial development abounds with examples.
In 1870, horses and mules were the prime source of power on U.S. farms. One
horse or mule was required to support four human beings a ratio that remained
almost constant for many decades. At that time, had a national commission been
asked to forecast the population for 1970, its answer probably would have
depended on whether its consultants were of an economic or technological turn of
mind. Had they been “economists”, they would probably have projected the 1970
horses or mule population to be more than 50 million. Had they been
“technologists”, they would have recognized that the power of steam had already
been harnessed to industry and to learn and ocean transport. They would have
recognized further that it would be the prime source of power on the farm. It
would have been difficult for them to avoid the conclusion that the horse and
mule population would decline rapidly.
16. According to the passage, what supplied most of the power on U.S. farms
in 1870?

A. technology began to be more economical
B. the steam engine had been invented
C. the U.S. horse population was about 10 million
D. a national commission was about 10 million
19. In the second paragraph, the author suggests that “economists” would
.
A. plan the economy through yearly forecasts
B. fail to consider the influence of technological innovation
C. value the economic contribution of farm animals
D. consult the national commission on the economy
20. What is the author’s attitude toward changes brought on by technological
innovations?
