Passage Two

There were many different cultures in the ancient world,

but the

two that had the most influence on European and

American civilizations were the Greek and the Roman.Often these

two cultures are lumped together in our minds, as if they were

really exactly alike. But that is not the

case. In many waysthe Greeks and the Romans could not have been more different.

The Greeks were truly democratic, often

without

a single

leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the

people. The Romans were

semi-democratic. They had a governing

Senate, but the political power was mostly or completely in

the hands of a single emperor.

Both cultures were great builders. But the construction

interests

of the two cultures were also different. The Greeks

tended to be more

artistic. Their buildings were well

constructed and they were especially interested in

temples,

columns, and decorative forms. The Romans, on the other hand,

were more engineers than artists. They concentrated their

efforts on urban planning, well-functioning water pipes, and

the best roads.

Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures

really similar. Both peoples ate very well indeed: lots of fish,

fresh vegetables and fruits, healthy meals, holding at the

same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.

In fact, it would probably be fair to say that they both loved

life in their warm,sea-oriented climates and they both lived

a full life.

40. What is the first paragraph about?

A. The Greek and the Roman were similar.

B. People misunderstood European civilization.

C.Greek

civilization

was

quite

different

from

Roman

civilization.

D. European civilization influenced American civilization

greatly.

41. Which of the following is TRUE?

A. The Romans had more political awareness.

B. The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.

C.The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.

D. The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.

42. What were the Greeks famous for?

A. The overall planning of a city or a town.

B. The artistic decoration of the buildings.

C. The practical functions of the buildings.a

D. The system of water supply and transportation.

43. How are the two cultures alike?

A. Both loved the sea.

B. Both lived long lives.C. Both loved cooking

D. Both enjoyed talking over meals.

Passage Three

As recently as three decades ago, many Americans believed

that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for

what they bought. Some

even thought

that owing money to a

store or a credit company was something to be ashamed of. Good

citizens, they believed, always bought what they wanted with

real money and they paid the full price immediately.

Today,however,all

that

has

changed.Credit,as

some

observers have noted, has become a way of life in the United

States. More and more Americans now are depending on those small

pieces of plastic, credit cards, to pay for large purchases

such as

televisions, record players

or furniture.

Many

people today would consider

it unusual not to use a credit

card to pay for a costly restaurant dinner, a hotel room or an

airline

trip. And there are some situations in which

Americans must have credit cards. If they want the temporary

use of a car, for example, they first

must give the car rental

company the number of their credit card. That

number is

considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay

Credit cards offer two major services to Americans. First of

all,

they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts

of money. Second, they permit people to borrow, to have the

immediate pleasure of owning

something, even if they do not

have enough money to pay for

it at the time. With credit cards

people pay for

goods or services at the end of each month

instead of when they buy them. And when the time does come to

pay, most credit cards offer people a choice. They can pay all

of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually

between 5 and 10 percent of what they owe.

44. What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays

according to the passage?

A. They consider it valuable.

B. They regard it as a shame.

C. They think it dangerous.

D. They find it quite convenient.

45. Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card

number?

A. To prevent the overuse of the car.

B. To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C. To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.

D. To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned.

46. What advantage can credit card holders have?

A. They can choose not to pay for their purchases.

B. They can easily borrow money at a lower interest.

C. They can own something before they actually pay for it.

D. They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.

47. What is the best title for the passage?

A. Credit-a Way of Life in America

B. Credit Services in America

C. Convenience of Living in America

D. History of Credit Cards in America

Passage Four

At the 1893 Columbian Exposition, a World Fair held in

Chicago, chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was

displayed. It caught the

eye of M. S. Hershey, who saw the

potential for chocolate. He installed chocolate machinery in

his factory in Lancaster, and produced his first

chocolate

bars in 1894.

Other Americans began mixing in other materials to makeup

new candy bars throughout the end of the 1890's and the early

1900's. But it was World War I that really brought attention

to the candy bar.

The U. S. Army Quartermaster Corps

requested various

American

chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound

blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The

blocks were cut into smaller

distributed to American soldiers

in Europe. Eventually the task

of making

smaller pieces was

turned back to the manufacturers. By the end of the war when

the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was

assured. Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of

chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result from

that time on and through the 1920's, candy bar manufacturers

became established throughout the United States, and as many

as 40, 000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.

The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern

coast in such cities as Philadelphia, Boston, and New York. The

industry soon

spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw

materials such as sugar, corn syrup, and milk were easily

available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry

and is even today an important base.48. Why did M. S. Hershey start the production of chocolate

bars?

A. He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.

B. He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become

popular

C. There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.

D. He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at

the fair

49. Which event brought the booming of American candy bar

business?

A. The adding of new materials.

B. The demand in the army during WWI.

C. The purchase of new machines

D. The appearance of smaller candy bars.

50. What does the underlined word "seat"in the last paragraph

most probably mean?

A. Focus.

B. Position.

C. Chair.

D. Center

51. What is this passage mainly about?

A. World Fair held in Chicago in 1893.

B. The popularity of the American candy bar industry.o

C. The candy bar industry during World War.

D. The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.

Passage Five

Mark Twain is one

of America's much-beloved authors,

creating

imaginative and humorous classics for children and

adults alike, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Prince

and The Pauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.

Twain passed away in

1910, leaving behind a treasure of

great literature. But now, 100 years after his death, he'll have

a brand-new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.

Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb it was his wish that

publishers wait until 100 years after his death to publish his

memoirs ) which he spent the last decade of his life working

on.

The autobiography totals more than

5,000 pages,

and

likely won't be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain

harbored some bitterness

against former girlfriends and

ex-friends. He also writes negatively

about politicians of

his day, such as Teddy Roosevelt. It's likely that he requested

such a long lead time for

the memoirs because he didn't want

to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously

published the autobiography has never been available in full,

and should provide great insights into the man behind the

classic books. The first

volume of the set will be available

in November, and the trilogy is being published by the

University of California, Berkeley.

"There are so many biographies of Twain, and many of them

have used bits and pieces of the autobiography", editor Robert

Hirst told The

Independent. "But biographers pick and choose

what bits to quote. By

publishing Twain's book in full we hope

that people will be able to come to their own complete

conclusions about what sort of a man he was."

52. According to Paragraph 1, which of the statements is TRUE

of Mark Twain?

A. He left behind lots of money.

B. His works were written for children.

C. His works are full of adventures.

D. He is famous for his great works.

53. What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the

passage?

A. It has been published against Twain's will.

B. It shows Twain's respect for politicians.

C. It will be published in full.

D. It has been recently finished.

54. What does the underlined word "trilogy" in Paragraph 4 mean?

A. work in three volumes.

B. An imaginative work.

C. collection of stories.

D. Memoirs of famous people.

55. What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?

A. To supplement other biographies.

B. To help readers to understand Mark Twain.
