Section B (22%)
Directions: Read the following two passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
A
Are some people born clever, and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of person's intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.
Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.
76. Which of these sentences best describes the writer’s point in Paragraph 1?
A. To some extent, intelligence is given at birth.
B. Intelligence is developed by the environment.
C. Some people are born clever and others born stupid.
D. Intelligence is fixed at birth, but is developed by the environment.
77. It is suggested in this passage that_______.
A. close relation usually have similar intelligence
B. unrelated people are not likely to have different intelligence
C. the closer the blood relationship between people, the more different they are likely to be in intelligence
D. people who live in close contact with each other are not likely to have similar degrees of intelligence
78. The phrase “at random”(Line3, para.2) means _______ .
A. purposely B. frequently
C. aimlessly D. independently
79. The best title for this article would be_______.
A. What Dose Intelligence Mean ?
B. On Intelligence
C. We Are Born with Intelligence
D. Environment Plays a Part in Developing Intelligence

CATCH THE BUZZ OF LIFE ON THE RIVER
Souvenirs From the Past
Every weekend, there's a popular flea market. Hunt for treasures of a different kind.

C
In Britain and other countries,young people sometimes take a “gap year”,a year off between high school and college. This idea never gained a big following in America. Recent news reports have suggested that interest may be growing,though there are no official numbers.
Charles Deacon,. Dean of Admissions at Georgetown University in Washington,D. C. ,estimates that in the current first-year class of 1,600 students,only about 25 decided to take a year off. He says this number hasn’t changed much over the years.
Mr. Deacon says the most common reason for taking a “gap year” is to have a chance to travel,but he says international students may take a “gap year” to meet requirements at home for military duty.
Some high school graduates see a year off as a chance to recover after twelve years of required education,but it can also give students a chance to explore their interests. Students hoping to be doctors,for example,could learn about the profession by volunteering in a hospital.
Many colleges and universities support gap-year projects by permitting students to delay their admission. Expels say students can grow emotionally and intellectually as they work at something they enjoy.
The Harvard admissions office has an essay on its Web site called “Time Out or Bum Out for the Next Generation. ’’It praises the idea of taking time off to step back,think and enjoy gaining life experiences outside the pressure of studies. It also notes that students are sometimes admitted to Harvard or other colleges partly because they did something unusual with that time.
Of course,a gap year is not for everyone. Students might miss their friends who go on directly to college,and parents might worry that their children will decide not to go to college once they take time off. Another concern is money. A year off,away from home,can be costly.
Holly Bull’s job is to specialize in helping students plan their gap year. She notes that several books have been written about this subject. She says these books along with media attention and the availability of information on the Internet have increased interest in the idea of a year off, and she points out that many gap-year programs cost far less than a year of college.
83. What is the passage mainly about?
A. It is likely that taking a “gap year” is becoming popular in America.
B. More and more American students are choosing to take a year off.
C. If you want to go to an American university, take a gap year first.
D. Americans hold different opinions towards students’ taking a “gap year”.
84. How many reasons for students’ taking a “gap year” are mentioned in the passage?
A. 2. B. 3. C. 4. D. 5.
85. The essay “Time Out or Bum Out for the Next Generation. ”suggests that______.
A. every student must take a “gap year” before applying for a famous university
B. some famous universities encourage students to gain more life experiences
C. taking a ‘gap year’ Can make students free from life learning
D. the stress of studies does harm to the students’ health
86. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Charles Deacon doesn’t support the idea of the students’ taking a “gap year”
B Parents might disagree with the program,concerned about their children’s future.
C. Books and media have contributed to the students’ interest in school learning.
D. Experts agree taking a year off will benefit the students emotionally and physically.
Section C
Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.
A. One of the nicest things you can do is to cook a Chinese dish and take it with you.
B. Then you are invited into the living room to talk for two or three hours.
C. It was unspeakably painful.
D. It would have been embarrassing to refuse, so we had to accept it.
E. It is completely unnecessary to take a gift with you when you are invited to dinner.
F. The first course is usually raw salad or fruit salad, followed by bread and butter.
Being invited to dinner is a big treat for Americans, but as a new comer who happens to feel sorry for American food, I find it a painful assignment. First, I cannot get used to eating sweet and salty thongs together. Second, terrible-tasting food must be praised to the skies. Third, it is not filling, you have to make yourself another meal after going home.
One time, a colleague said to my husband, “My father is a good cook and invites you two to have a taste of his culinary skill this weekend.”____87____ The meal turned out to be canned chicken with vegetables and rice, which tasted funny. Following this dish was a dessert of cored apples, stuffed with plum jam and coated in sugar. Eating it made me feel like vomiting, but I had to say, “Delicious! Delicious!”____88____
Often when we were invited to dinner by Americans I felt that they were not inviting us to eat but to look at the tableware. They do not use rice bowls. At the beginning of the meal the table is set with three plates, for each person, three glasses, a knife, a fork, a big spoon and a little spoon. The big spoon is seldom used, however, for they do not drink soup but lots of cold water, so the glasses see much service.____89____ After that some strange-looking and odd-tasting little dishes are served while people eat and talk. Then comes the main course, usually a piece of chicken or steak or a slice of ham, with a few fried potatoes and some peas, or whatever, boiled to a pulp. When this is finished, dessert is served, fruit pie or ice cream, and cake, which is murder to eat,for it is tasteless. Last comes coffee or tea.American tea is a bag of tea-leaves in a cup of hot water, at which point, the dinner is considered over.____90____ The Americans talk and laugh, and we do not understand what is being said. It is really unbearably painful. That is why I find eating American meals most troublesome.
