    On the night of November 14, 1978, a six-year-old Korean boy was flying to the United States. All he knew was that he was on a plane heading for somewhere. The plane landed at Kennedy International Airport, where he was greeted by a family. This young boy was me.

    I have grown up in a town where there were few Asians, so I stuck out in the crowd. I made friends quickly and they treated me just like anyone else. You may ask if anyone made fun of my appearance. Well, of course, I met that kind of person. I just shrugged it off.

    As an adopted child, I have something that others don't have. I have had the benefit of two families. I'm lucky to have got a chance to start a new life. But we must try never to forget our past. Someday I will go back to Korea to find out what kind of culture I left behind.

    There is only one thing that I regret about being adopted. When I argue with my parents and they realize they are losing the argument, they sometimes wonder what I would be doing if I were back in Korea. I don't understand this because I thought the purpose of adopting someone was to give them a better chance of growing up in a family. Some day when I am older, I want to adopt a girl and raise her the way my parents have raised me, but I would do it better, for I know what went well and what did not.

    1.We learn that when the writer was on the way to his new family, ______.

    A. he was with his own parents

    B. he was very happy and excited

    C. he was about ten years old then

    D. he didn't know he was going to be adopted

    2.If someone sticks out in the crowd, it means that he/she_______.

    A. is very good-looking

    B. is very kind-hearted

    C. is easily noticed by others

    D. is disliked by others

    3.When the writer was made fun of by others, he _______.

    A. was deeply hurt

    B. wanted to go back to Korea

    C. didn’t care about it that much

    D. tried to make friends with them

    4.What does the writer want to do when he is older?

    A Go back to live with his parents in Korea.

    B. Tell his parents what they have done wrong.

    C. Find out how to raise children in a better way.

    D. Adopt a girl and raise her in a good way.

    Very soon a computer will be able to teach you English. It will also be able to translate any language for you，too. It's just one more incredible result of the development of microprocessors - those tiny parts of a computer commonly known as "silicon chips". So give up going to classes, stop buying more textbooks and relax. In a couple of years you won't need the international language of English.

    Already Texas Instruments in the United States is developing an electronic translation machine. Imagine a Spanish secretary, for example, who wants to type a letter from the boss to a businessman in Sweden. All he or she will have to do is this: first type the letter in Spanish. The letter will appear on a television screen. After a few seconds the translated letter will appear on another television screen in Stockholm in perfect Swedish.

    And that's not all. Soon a computer will be able to teach you English, if you really want to learn the language. You'll sit in front of a television screen and practice endless structures. The computer will tell you when you are correct and when you are wrong. It will even talk to you because the silicon chips can change electrical impulses into sounds. And clever programmers can predict the responses you, the learner, are likely to make.

    So think of it．You will be able to teach yourself at your own pace．You will waste very little time，and you can work at home．And if after all that，you still can't speak English，you can always use the translating machine．In a few years，therefore，perhaps there will be no need for BBC Modern English，or BBC English by Radio programmes - no more textbooks or teachers of English．Instead of buying an exciting new textbook，the computer will ask you to replace it with a microprocessor．Fast，reliable and efficient language learning and translating facilities will be available to you．Think of that，no more tears or embarrassing moments．One little problem is that a computer can't laugh yet - but the scientists are working on it．Happy learning！

    1.According to the writer, "you won't need the international language of English" because _____.

    A. learning English will no longer be a difficult task

    B. textbooks are no longer necessary

    C. it's better to buy a computer than to go to classes

    D. the computer will be able to translate any language for you

    2.You will _____ if you use a computer to learn the language.

    A. waste much of your time

    B. speak better English

    C. need no translating machine

    D. do everything at your own pace

    3.This passage is mainly about _____

    A. someone who learns English with the help of a computer

    B. the computer teaching the language

    C. fast, reliable and efficient language learning

    D. what language learning could be like when computerized

    阅读下列列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑．

    I was twenty-two, and in Bolivia. I’d been to every other country in South America, and now I was set on getting into Chile, the last on the list.

    After several days, I reached the hills. It was cold, and even the distant mountains were clear. The days were lonely, but one evening I met Filomeno and his fellow teachers. They tried to persuade me not to go to Chile, saying it was a bad place, and that I would be killed. I didn’t believe them. I knew nothing of the current politics; I just wanted to go there.

    So I walked into the mountains, feeling excited, and came to a sign with the word "Chile" on it. A frightening soldier appeared, stuck a gun in my back, and pushed me down a slope to the police station. The police chief then told me, "There’s nothing for you here." I explained that I had come to see this beautiful country. But he was annoyed.

    In the evening they filled me with food. There was laughter, and I was less tense. Then the police chief took me to a tiny cell. I lay down on the mattress (垫子). Even though I had no light and none of my possessions, I felt euphoric. At least I had arrived! And what a story I’d have to tell! The next morning I was released, and I was told that Chile didn’t want me. Throwing my belongings into my backpack, I shouted and screamed at the soldiers. After all this effort I was being sent home! I stomped (以重踏步方式走) towards Bolivia expecting to feel a bullet. But I’d be back! I told myself.

    1.The author went to Chile to ______.

    A. visit his friend Filomeno B. settle there forever

    C. complete his trip plan D. risk his life

    2.The underlined word "euphoric" in Paragraph 4 most probably means "______".

    A. terrible B. shamed C. bored D. excited

    3.According to the last paragraph, the author lost his temper because ______.

    A. he was prevented from entering Chile

    B. he was badly treated by the soldiers in Chile

    C. it was his last chance to travel

    D. his friends had stopped him from going to Chile

    4.What is the passage mainly about?

    A. An exciting fight with soldiers in Chile.

    B. How the author escaped from Chile.

    C. An adventure in Chile.

    D. Why the author went to Chile.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Advertising

    We live in a world of advertising. Advertising is any means of bringing information to the public. 1. What is being presented to the public is usually a product or service, such as a car or camera. Yet it may also be an idea, as in “Vote for Jones”, or an event, as in “Watch the World Series on this channel tomorrow!” Without advertising, people would have a difficult time knowing where goods could be bought or even certain goods or services existed.

    Advertising began with town criers in ancient Greece, who called out the name of items available in the market. 2. The first printed ads appeared in England in 1480, and newspaper ads began in 1648. In the twentieth century extensive new fields for advertising opened up with the invention of radio and television.

    3. Fro example, radio and television ads are costly. But they reach a vast audience. This makes them worthwhile and cost-effective for the advertisers. Newspaper ads can feature coupons(赠券) or information that can be clipped and saved. Magazines often appeal directly to special groups, such as sports fans or teenagers. Other forms of advertising include direct mail, e-mail, billboards…

    4. For the most part, they hire qualified agencies to create their advertising. An advertising agency plans a company’s ads. It also does research. It surveys the market and tests different approaches to determine the most effective way to sell the greatest amount of the product.

    How can we be sure that an ad is accurate? Two government agencies, the Federal Trade Commission and the Food and Drug Administration, check ads against false claims. The Postal Service watches for fraudulent(欺骗性的) ads sent by mail. State and local governments also have watchdog agencies. 5.

    A. Its purpose is to sell something.

    B. Printed ads are found in newspapers and magazines.

    C. Ancient Egyptians carved announcements on stones.

    D. Do business owners themselves think up all those ads?

    E. Advertisers who trick the public face heavy fines or other punishment.

    F. Advertisers use whichever means, or media they think will work best for them.

    G. Advertising developed with the rise of mass production in the late 19th century.
