    The story I am going to tell you happened about three years ago when I started to learn how to drive. At first, I was very frightened, and I thought I could never learn how to drive a car. Driving a car frightened me because in my home country women never drive, but in the United States every woman has to know how to drive. My husband paid an instructor to teach me how to drive. After that, my husband practiced with me for a long time. My husband always told me that I had to learn. It was important to me and my family.
    However, I couldn’t get my license right away. I failed my driving test two times. After practicing for a long time, I decided to go for my third driving test. I had failed my first test because I was very nervous. Everybody encouraged me to continue practicing. Three weeks later, I decided to try it again, but I failed again. After that, I was very embarrassed（困窘的）, and I said I couldn’t get it, so I stopped practicing for a while.
    Not knowing how to drive was bad because I couldn’t do anything. I had two kids, my husband works, and I have to take care of everything. Driving was so necessary that I decided to try it again. And finally, that time, I passed the test. Now I have my license. I know how to drive, and it has changed my life in some important ways. Now I’m driving to the college, learning English and hoping I will get a good job in the future.

    Shopping is not as simple as you may think! There are all sorts of tricks each time we reach out for that particular brand（品牌）of product on the shelf.
    Colouring, for example, varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged（包装）in greens, yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets（包装） are often blue and expensive goods, like chocolates, are gold or silver.
    When some kind of pain-killer （止痛药） was brought out recently, researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually, it came on the market in a dark blue and white package — blue because we think of it as safe, and white as calm.
    The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.
    It is believed that the better-known companies spend, on average, 70 percent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging!
    The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears Soap, who for 25 year has used pretty little girls to promote（促销）their goods, came to the conclusion: “Any fool can make soap, but it takes a genius（天才） to sell it.”
    小题1:. Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text? 
    A．The cost of its packageB．The price of the product
    C．The colour of its packageD．The brand name of the product
    小题2:. The underlined part “the colours turned the customers off” (in Para.3) means that the colours ________ .
    A．attracted the customers stronglyB．had weak effects on the customers
    C．tricked the customers into shoppingD．caused the customers to lose interest
    小题3:. Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales?
    A．The way to promote goods.B．The team to produce a good product
    C．The discovery of a genius. D．The brand name used by successful producers.
    小题4:. Which of the following would be the best title for this text?
    A．Choice of Good Products.B．Disadvantages of Products.
    C．Effect of Packaging on Shopping.D．Brand Name and Shopping Tricks.

    Alaskan black bears hibernate for up to seven months a year, during which time they do not eat or drink, before waking up in virtually the same physical state they fell asleep in．
    Now experts hope to develop methods of putting humans into a similar state which could help astronauts survive long missions and lead to new ways of treating severely ill patients．
    While many studies have examined hibernation in mice and hedgehogs, little research has been done into the same condition in larger mammals such as bears．
    But new research conducted at the Institute of Arctic Biology at the University of Alaska monitored the animals' body temperature, heart rate and muscle movements while they slept.
    The research results showed that during a five-month hibernation the bears’ body temeratures varied between 30℃ and 36℃ in cycles that lasted between two and seven days—a pattern that was previously unknown in hibernating animals.
    The research project leader said, "If our research could help by showing how to reduce metabolic(新陈代谢的) rates and oxygen demands in human tissues, one could possibly save severely ill patients. We simply need to know how to turn things on and off to take advantage of the different levels of hibernation."
    Craig Heller, of Stanford University, who contributed to the study, added: "There has always been a thought that, if there is ever long-distance space travel, it would be good to be able to put people into a state of lower metabolism or a state of hibernation. That's almost science fiction but you can see the logical basis."
    小题1:We know from the text that            .
    A．during winter Alaskan black bears sleep for more than half a year
    B．researchers have examined hibernation in humans
    C．experts have got no results from their research
    D．Craig Heller is a leader from the Institute of Arctic Biology
    小题2:The best topic of the text should be                ．
    ． 
    A．The Latest Research Results
    B．New Methods of Putting Humans into Hibernation
    C．Alaskan Black Bears Hibernate
    D．Astronauts Could Hibernate Like Bears
    小题3:According to the text, we can infer that         .
    A．many studies have examined hibernation in mice and bears as well
    B．humans' body temperatures vary between 30℃ and 36℃ while they sleep
    C．research into hibernation in animals may help deadly patients stay longer
    D．scientists have already take advantage of the different levels of hibernation in space missions

    The market investigation is indispensable to sales promotion. They are as closely related as the lips and teeth, so to speak. What you produce is for sale on the market. It would be impossible to succeed in selling a product without first investigating the market.
    In the international market, goods on sale coming from different countries and suppliers are always facing keen competition. Under such circumstances, they will try everything possible to familiarize themselves with the market conditions. In making investigations, we ought to get information about what similar items the competitors are offering on the market, what prices they are quoting（报价）, what features their products have, who are their regular customers, etc. Then, how can we obtain such information? There are many channels that we can make use of in doing this sort of work. The commercial counselor's offices of our embassies stationed abroad can help us in making market investigations. Nowadays, our import and export corporations send their trade groups abroad every now and then. One of their purposes is to make market surveys on the spot.
    Certainly, face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen are also important channels to get market information. The Chinese Export Commodities Fairs and some other fairs of similar nature as well as visits of foreign businessmen provide us with such opportunities. Of course, there are some other ways of making market investigations.
    小题1:In making market investigations, one should ______.
    A．get enough information concernedB．advertise his products
    C．produce high quality goodsD．none of the above
    小题2:The word "indispensable" in the first line means ______.
    A．impossibleB．necessary
    C．advisableD．available
    小题3: Which of the following statements is NOT true?
    A．The relationship between market investigation and sales promotion is just as that of the lips and
    teeth.
    B．It is impossible to succeed in selling a product without market investigation.
    C．There are various ways of making market investigation.
    D．Production goes before market investigation.
    小题4:All the following are channels to get market information except ________.
    A．to have commercial counsellor' s office of our embassies stationed abroad
    B．to promote the quality of our own products
    C．to send trade groups abroad every now and then
    D．to have face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen

    For many years it was common in the United States to associate Chinese Americans with restaurants and places that wash clothes. People did not realize that the Chinese had been driven into these occupations by the prejudice and discrimination that faced them in this country.
    The first Chinese to reach the United States came during the California Gold Rush of 1849. Like most of the other people there，they had come to search for gold. In that largely unoccupied land， the men staked a claim (立界标表明所有权) for themselves by placing makers’ in the ground. However，either because the Chinese were so different from the others or because they worked so patiently that they sometimes succeeded in getting a mining claim to make a profit ( where others saw no way to do so) ,they became the target".Of their competi­tors. They were troubled and attacked in many ways. Often they were prevented from working their claims; some places even passed regulations forbidding them to own claims. The Chinese therefore started to seek out other ways of earning a living. Some of them began to wash clothes for the white miners; others set up small restaurants. (There were almost no women in California in those days and the Chinese filled a real need by doing this" women's work". ) Some went to work as farmhands or as fishermen.
    In the early 1860's many more Chinese arrived in California. This time railroad companies brought the men in to build the first railroad line from California to the East. They were sorely needed because the work was so hard and dangerous，and it was carried on in such an isolated part of the country that the railroad company could not find other laborers for the job. As in the case of the first Chinese in America， these Chinese were almost all males; and like them，too，they encountered a great deal of prejudice. The hostility grew es­pecially strong after the railroad project was completed，and the Chinese laborers returned to California—thousands of them，all out of work
    Many of today's Chinese Americans are the descendants of some of the early miners and railroad workers.
    小题1: What is the main idea of the passage?
    A．The first Chinese to reach the United States came during the California Gold Rush of 1849.
    B．Many more Chinese arrived in California to construct the first railroad from California to the East.
    C．Early Chinese immigrants to America experienced a lot of prejudice and discrimination.
    D．Prejudice and discrimination that Chinese Americans met.
    小题2: Why did the Chinese become the target of their competitors?
    A．Because the Chinese were different and they worked patiently to achieve a lot of success while others couldn't.
    B．The Chinese were so different from the others.
    C．They worked so patiently with little payment
    D．There were almost no women in California in those days.
    小题3:What was the fate of the Chinese after the construction of the railroad?
    A．They went back to their own country
    B．They stayed to work in the railroad companies.
    C．They went to California to search for gold.
    D．The hostility grew especially strong.
    小题4:What is the meaning of the word" encountered"?
    A．face.B．Count. C．Enter. D．Handle.
    小题5:The following statements are true EXCEPT       .
    A．during the California Gold Rush of 1849，people staked a claim for themselves by placing markers in the ground
    B．the first Chinese went to America because they wanted to work as farmhands or as fishermen

    D．the Chinese were sorely needed because the work was so dangerous

    One of the most widely accepted, commonly repeated assumptions (假设) in our culture is that if you exercise, you will lose weight. I exercise all the time, but I still have got fat that hangs over my belt when I sit. Why isn’t all the exercise getting rid of it?
    It’s a question many of us could ask. More than 45 million Americans now belong to a health club, up from 23 million in 1993. We spend some $19 billion a year on gym memberships. Of course, some people join and never go. Still, as one major study — the Minnesota Heart Survey — found, more of us at least say we exercise regularly.
    And yet obesity (肥胖) figures have risen sharply in the same period: a third of Americans are obese, and another third count as overweight by the Federal Government’s definition. Yes, it’s entirely possible that those of us who regularly go to the gym would weigh even more if we exercised less. But like many other people, I get hungry after I exercise, so I often eat more on the days I work out than on the days I don’t. Could exercise actually be keeping me from losing weight?
    The popular belief that exercise is essential for weight control is actually fairly new. As recently as the 1960s, doctors routinely advised against too much exercise, particularly for older adults who could injure themselves. Today doctors encourage even their oldest patients to exercise, which is sound advice for many reasons: People who regularly exercise are at significantly lower risk for all manner of diseases — those of the heart in particular. They less often develop cancer and many other illnesses. But the past few years of obesity research show that the role of exercise in weight loss has been wildly over-evaluated.
    “In general, for weight loss, exercise is pretty useless,” says Eric Ravussin, exercise researcher at Louisiana State University. Many recent studies have found that exercise isn’t as important in helping people lose weight as you hear so regularly in gym advertisements or on shows like The Biggest Loser — or from magazines like this one.
    小题1: From the passage we learn that ____.
    A．some Americans join a health club but never go there
    B．the number of overweight people has doubled since 1993
    C．more than 45 million Americans now go to the gym regularly
    D．Americans waste too much money each year on sports
    小题2: According to the passage, exercise ____.
    A．has long been believed to be good for older adults
    B．is not properly advertised as an effective way to lose weight
    C．was first recognized as an effective way to lose weight in the 1960s
    D．is less effective in preventing heart disease than what doctors believe
    小题3: According to the writer, people might gain weight because ____.
    A．they have the habit of going to the gym regularly
    B．they eat the same food when they do not exercise
    C．they exercise less than required by doctors
    D．they eat more after they exercise
    小题4: What may be the best title for this passage?
    A．Overweight Is Not Good for Your Health
    B．Exercise Won’t Make You Thin
    C．Gym Is Part of American Lifestyle
    D．Obesity Is a Social Problem in America

    Why are so many people so afraid of failure? Quite simple because no one tells us how to fail so that failure becomes an experience that will lead to growth. We forget that failure is part of the human condition and that every person has the right to fail.
    Most parents work hard at either preventing failure or protecting their children from the knowledge that they have failed. One way is to lower standards. A mother describes her child’s hastily made table as “Perfect!” even though it doesn’t stand still. Another way is to shift(转移)blame. If John fails science, his teacher is unfair or stupid.
    The trouble with failure prevention is that they leave a child unequipped for life in the real world. The young need to learn that no one can be best at everything, no one can win all the time and that it’s possible to enjoy a game even when you don’t win. A child who’s not invited to a birthday party, who doesn’t make the honour roll on the baseball team, feels terrible, of course. But parents should not offer a quick comfort, prize or say “It doesn’t matter.” because it does. The young should be allowed to experience disappointment and be helped to master it.
    Failure is never pleasurable. It hurts grownups and children alike. But it can make a positive contribution to your life once you learn to use it. Step one is to ask “Why did it fail? Don’t blame someone else. Ask yourself what you did wrong, how you can improve. If someone else can help, don’t be shy about inquiring. Success, which encourages repetition of old behaviour, is not nearly as good a teacher as failure. You can learn from a bad party how to give a good one, from an ill-chosen first house what to look for in a second. Even a failure that seems definitive can cause fresh thinking, a change of direction. After twelve years of studying ballet, a friend of mine applied for a professional company. She asked. That ballet master shook his head. “You will never be a dancer,” he said,” you haven’t the body for it.”
    In such cases, the way to use failure is to take stock bravely asking “What have I left? What else can I do?” My friend put away her shoes and moved into dance treatment center, a field where she’s both able and useful. Failure frees one to take risks because there’s less to lose. Often there is recovery of energy — a way to find new possibilities.
    小题1:The first paragraph tells us ______.
    A．failure is very natural for every person
    B．the reason why we don’t know how to fail
    C．the reason why so many people are afraid of failure
    D．one should be ready to face failure at any time
    小题2:How many preventions may parents use when a child fails according to the passage?
    A．only twoB．no more than threeC．less than threeD．more than three
    小题3: Which statement below does the writer support?
    A．Failure is as good an experience as success.
    B．Failure is the mother of success.
    C．Failure is far from a good teacher like success.
    D．Definitive failure gives us nothing but fresh thinking.
    小题4: We can learn from the last paragraph that _______.
    A．failure is the recovery of energy
    B．failure makes one free to do something dangerous
    C．failure should be forgotten in our life
    D．failure is likely to do us good in life

    Two worlds come together
    Imagine landing in a foreign country where you cannot speak the language, understand the culture and don’t know anybody. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a friend who could help you out?
    John Smith, an English explorer who landed in America in 1607, found the best friend ever. She was a Native American named Pocahontas (1595-1617). And she did more than teach Smith the language: she saved his life, twice.   
    Smith was captured(捕获) by members of Pocahontas’s tribe (部落) and was going to be killed. But for some reason, the Chief’s daughter, Pocahontas, felt sorry for Smith (who was probably the first white man she had ever seen) and threw her body over his to protect him. Smith returned safely to the small village he was living in.
    During the winter the English settlers did not know how to get food from nature. Pocahontas often brought food for Smith and his friends.
    A year later Pocahontas’s father tried to kill Smith again because the Native Americans were very scared the English would try to take over their land. Pocahontas warned him and he was able to escape.
    Later she became a Christian and eventually married an Englishman named John Rolfe.
    She spent the last year of her life in London.
    Pocahontas has become an American legend. Her life story has been re-created in many books and films, including Disney’s 1995 film, Pocahontas.
    One of the reasons she is so popular is that many Europeans look at Pocahontas as an excellent example of how a minority can adjust into the majority. Pocahontas is also respected because of her selfless love. She proved that people can be kind and loving even to people of a different race or culture. John Smith was very different from Pocahontas but she could see he was a good man and that was all that mattered. No race or country owns goodness, love and loyalty.
    小题1: What difficulties might early European settlers meet in America EXCEPT ________?
    A．the fierce conflict with Native AmericansB．bad-tempered natives who enjoyed killing
    C．unfamiliarity with a foreign landD．lack of food in winter
    小题2: Pocahontas saved John Smith twice because ______.
    A．he was the first white man she had ever seen in her life
    B．she wanted to become a Christian and marry an Englishman
    C．she believed in general kindness even to people of a different race
    D．she was on the settlers’ side and against her cruel father
    小题3: According to the text, Europeans think Pocahontas _____.
    A．was brave to break away from her own tribe
    B．set a good example for other natives to accept the white settlers
    C．was a selfless Christian who can love her enemy
    D．was open to a more advanced culture
    小题4: What can we infer from the passage?
    A．The battles between early settlers and Native Americans resulted from their fighting for land.
    B．The Europeans think the early settlers should have learned to adjust to the local cultures.
    C．The creation of America is based on the settlers’ victory over the Native Americans.
    D．People from different cultures can never really get along well with each other.
