Part II Reading Comprehension
Direction:
There are four reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five question, for each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET.
Passage 1
Many visitors finds the fast pace at which American people move very troubling. One's first impression is likely to be that everyone is in a rush .City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going and are very impatient if they are delayed even for a brief moment.
At first, this may seem unfriendly to you . But drivers will rush you ; storekeepers will be in a hurry as they serve you ; people will push past you as they walk along the street . You will miss smiles, brief conversations with people as you shop or dine away from home . Do not think that because Americans are in such a hurry they are unfriendly. Often , life is much slower outside the big cities, as is true in other countries as well.
    Americans who live in cities such as New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles, often think that everyone is equally in a hurry to get things done; they expect others to "push back", just as city people do in Tokyo, Singapore or Paris, for example . But when they discover that you are a stranger, most Americans become quite kindly and will take great care to help you. Many of them first came to the city as strangers and they remember how frightening a new city can be .If you need help or want to ask a question , choose a friendly looking person and say," I am a stranger here. Can you help me ?"
    Most people will stop, smile at you, and help you find you way or answer your questions. But you must let them know that you need help. Otherwise they are likely to pass you by, not noticing that you are new to the city and in need of help. Occasionally, you may find someone too busy or perhaps too rushed to give you aid. If this happens, do not be discouraged; just ask someone else. Most Americans enjoy helping a stranger.
31. Many people who first visit the United States will find that _______.
A) America is a highly developed country
B) American city people seem to be always in a rush

C) you will feel that Americans do not seem very friendly
D) you will find that Americans don't have much sense of humor
33. In the author's opinion, ___________.
A) it is true that life in New York is much faster than that in any other city
B) people living outside big cities are lazy and miserable
C) most American people enjoy living in the suburbs of big cities
D) those who are busy are not necessarily unfriendly
34. The author mentions big cities such as Tokyo, Singapore and Paris ___________.
A) to show that city people all over the world have a lot in common
B) to let his readers be aware that they are some of the world's biggest cities

A) offer his help             B) stop smiling at you
C) help you find the way      D) reply that he is pleased to meet you
Passage 2
    Mark felt that it was time for him to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work.. The area's city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing . The neighborhood faced many problems.
Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings . People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman..
It was too much for Mark. " The problems are too big ," he thought . He turned to the man next to him and said, "I think this is a waste of my time . Nothing I could do would make a difference here."
    Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. "People should just take care of themselves , " he decided. "That's enough to do . I can't take on all the problems of the world."
    As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn't have a free hand . As Mark got closer, her other child , a littlle boy , suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and groceries started to fall out . Mark ran to take the boy's arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the groceries while the woman smiled in relief. "Thanks!" she said . " You've got great timing!"
    " Just being neighborly," Mark said . As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was " Small acts of kindness add up ." Mark smiled and thought, " Maybe that's a good place to start."

Passage 3
    In every society it is necessary to have a general system of laws to ensure justice. Laws are designed to make certain that people's rights are protected and that people respect each other's rights. Sometimes, however, laws are passed which are specific to a time or situation. For example , a town in Indiana once passed a law making it illegal to shoot open a can of food . Apparently, some gun-carrying citizens forgot their can openers and naturally enough, used their guns to do the job. This disturbed other citizens, and endangered their lives, so a law was passed to prevent it.
    Specific laws sometimes remain in existence long after the problem has disappeared. The laws then seem strange. For example , the Indiana law was no longer necessary when citizens stopped carrying guns and using them as can openers. Since the law was no longer needed, what once made sense now seems like nonsense.
    Sometimes laws designed to serve a good purpose were passed but somehow these became mixed up in their wording. As a result, the laws don't make sense. In one state there is a law which says that it is "illegal to move or to attempt to move a motor vehicle."  Obviously, a massive traffic jam would occur if everyone suddenly obeyed that law . But no one does, of course, because the intention of the law was not to prevent owners from moving their own cars . It was to prevent people from moving (stealing) other people's cars.
    It is often harder to repeal (废止)a law than to pass one, so many of these old laws remain in existence. Because they no longer fit the way people live or because the problem no longer exists, these laws are ignored. Everyone understands that and life goes on. Thus, laws that once made very good sense, now seem like nonsense.
41. According to the passage, laws are designed for the purpose of ____________.
A) protecting people's rights         B) making people respect each other
C) preventing gun-carrying          D) punishing criminals
42. The word "job" in paragraph 1 refers to ___________.
A) working     B) shooting    C) preventing gun-carrying    D) disturbing others
43 The author used the Indiana law as an example to explain _________.
A) how some laws are passed and changed          B) how people in Indiana open cans
C) why some laws may seem strange             D) why people in Indiana no longer use their guns
44. What's the problem with the law concerning motor vehicles?
A) It leads to traffic jams.                  B) It is not clearly written.
C) It is not designed to serve a good purpose.  D) It has been out of date.
45. We can conclude from the passage that ___________.
A) a law system is necessary for every society
B) some laws that don't make sense may also get passed
C) it is more difficult to change the old law than pass a new one
D) some laws may seem strange as time passes
Passage 4
By the Treaty of Paris of 1763, which ended the war with the French and the Indians, England gained possession of Canada and all the territory east of the Mississippi River. French influence on this continent thus came to an end; England now controlled most of North America. But the war had been long and expensive. England had many debts. George III, king of England, after consulting with his advisers, decided that the American colonists(殖民者)should help pay some of the expenses of this war. A standing English army of 10,000 men had been left in the colonies(殖民地)for protection against the Indians. The English government also felt that the colonists should share in the expenses of maintaining this army. The result was a series of measures, the Grenville Program, passed by Parliament and designed to raise money in the colonies. Some of these measures were accepted by the colonists, but one in particular, the Stamp Act, was met with great protest. The Stamp Act required that stamps, ranging in price from a few cents to almost a dollar, be placed on all newspapers, advertisements, bills of sale, wills, legal papers, etc. The Stamp Act was one of the causes of the American Revolution. It affected everyone, rich and poor alike. Some businessmen felt that the act would surely ruin their businesses.
    Of all the voices raised in protest to the Stamp Act, none had greater effect than that of a young lawyer from Virginia - Patrick Henry. Henry had only recently been elected to the Virginia Assembly. Yet when the Stamp Act came up for discussion, he opposed it almost single-handedly. He also expressed, for the first time, certain ideas that were held by many Americans of the time but that never before had been stated so openly. "Is life so dear or peace so sweet, as to be bought at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty(万能)God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!"
46.From the text we learn that ___________________.
A) Britain took over Canada from the Indians in 1763
B) there had been a war between the French and the Indians which ended in 1763
C) France used to have control of Canada and some areas east of the Mississippi River
D) the French still kept some influence in North America through the Treaty of Paris
47.The Grenville Program refers to ___________________.
A) King George III's plan to gather money in North America
B) the British government's desire to raise money in North America
C) a plan to share the expenses of maintaining an army in the American colonies
D) a decision of the British Parliament to collect money in the American colonies
48.The Stamp Act ___________________.
A) was an act about selling stamps at prices from a few cents to almost a dollar
B) required that all commercial and legal documents in America have stamps on them
C) was the main cause of the American Revolution
D) chiefly affected business people who felt it would ruin their businesses

A) had been a member of the Virginia Assembly for a long time
B) didn't know what courses to take to complete his studies as a lawyer
C) was almost the only one who openly protested against the Stamp Act
D) didn't value life or peace as much as other people did
