Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)
Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
There are two methods of fighting, the one by law, the other by force; the first method is that of men, the second of beasts; but as the first method is often insufficient, one must have recourse to the second. It is, therefore, necessary for a prince to know well how to use both the beast and the man. This was covertly taught to rulers by ancient writers, who related how Achilles and many others of those ancient princes were given to Chiron the centaur to be brought up and educated under his discipline. The parable of this semi animal, semi human teacher is meant to indicate that a prince must know how to use both natures, and that the one without the other is not durable. A prince, being thus obliged to know well how to act as a beast, must imitate the fox, and the lion, for the lion cannot protect himself from traps, and the fox annot defend himself from wolves. Those that wish to be only lions do not understand this. Therefore, a prudent ruler ought not to keep faith when by doing so it would be against his interest, and when the reasons which made him bind himself no longer exist. If men were all good, this precept would not be good ; but as they are bad, and would not observe their faith with you, so you are not bound to keep faith with them. Nor have legitimate grounds ever failed a prince who wished to show colorable excuse for the nonfulfilment of his promise. Of this one could furnish an infinite number of examples, and show how many times peace has been broken, and how many promises rendered worthless, by the faithlessness of princes, and those that have best been able to imitate the fox have succeeded best. But it is necessary to be able to disguise this character well, and to be a great feigner and dissembler, and men are so simple and so ready to obey present necessities, that the one who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived.

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
The forest from which Man takes his timber is the tallest and most impressive plant community on Earth. In terms of Man's brief life it appears permanent and unchanging, save for the seasonal growth and fall of the leaves, but to forester it represents the climax of a long succession of events. No wooded landscape we see today has been forest for all time. Plants have minimum requirements of temperature and moisture and, in ages past, virtually every part of Earth's surface has at some time been either too dry or too cold for plants to survive. However, as soon as climatic conditions change in favour of plant life, a fascinating sequence of changes occurs, called a primary succession.
First to colonize the barren land are the lowly lichens, surviving on bare rock.
Slowly, the acids produced by these organisms crack the rock surface, plant debris accumulates, and mosses establish a shallow root?hold. Ferns may follow and, with short grasses and shrubs, gradually form a covering of plant life. Roots probe even deeper into the developing soil and eventually large shrubs give way to the first trees. These grow rapidly, cutting off sunlight from the smaller plants, and soon establish complete domination—closing their ranks and forming a climax community which may endure for thousands of years.
Yet even this community is not everlasting. Fire may destroy it outright and settlers may cut it down to gain land for pasture or cultivation. If the land is then abandoned, a secondary succession will take over, developing much faster on the more hospitable soil. Shrubs and trees are among the early invaders, their seeds carried by the wind, by birds and lodged in the coats of mammals.For as long as it stands and thrives, the forest is a vast machine, storing energy and many elements essential for life.
26.What does the forest strike mankind as permanent?
A) The trees are in community.
B) The forest is renewed each season.
C) Man's life is short in comparison.
D) It is an essential part our lives.
27.What has sometimes caused plants to die out of the past?
A) Interference from foresters.
B) Variations in climate.
C) The absence of wooded land.
D) The introduction of new type of plants.
28.In a “primary succession', what makes it possible for mosses to take root?
A) The type of rock.
B) The amount of sunlight.
C) The amount of moisture.
D) The effect of lichens.
29.What conditions are needed for shrubs to become established?
A) Ferns must take root.
B) The ground must be covered with grass.
C) More soil must accumulate.
D) Smaller plants must die out.
30.Why is a “secondary succession” quicker?
A) The ground is more suitable.
B) There is more space for new plants.
B) Birds and animals bring new seeds.
D) It is supported by the forest.
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
Grandma Moses is among the most celebrated twentieth century painters of the United States, yet she had barely started painting before she was in her late seventies. As she once said of herself: “I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me.” No one could have had a more productive age.
She was born Anna Mary Robertson on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls.(“We came in bunches, like radishes.”) At twelve she left home and was in domestic service until, at twenty seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers. They farmed most of their lives, first in Virginia and then in New York State, at Eagle Bridge. She had ten children, of whom five survived; her husband died in 1927. Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery pictures as a hobby, but only switched to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time. Her pictures were first sold at the local drugstore and at a fair, and were soon spotted by a dealer who bought everything she painted. Three of the pictures were exhibited in the Museum of Modern Art, and in 1940 she had her first exhibition in New York. Between the 1930's and her death she produced some 2,000 pictures: detailed and lively portrayals of the rural life she had known for so long, with a marvelous sense of color and form. “I think really hard till I think of something really pretty, and then I paint it.”she said.
31.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A) Grandma Moses: A Biographical Sketch
B) The Children of Grandma Moses
C) Grandma Moses: Her Best Exhibition
D) Grandma Moses and Other Older Artists
32.According to the passage, Grandma Moses began to paint because she wanted to ____.
A) decorate her home
B) keep active
C) improve her salary
D) gain an international reputation
33.From Grandma Moses' description of herself in the first paragraph, it can be inferred that she was ____.
A) independent B) pretty
C) wealthy D) timid
34.Grandma Moses spent most of her life ____.
A) nursing B) painting
C) embroidering D) farming
35.In line 14, the word “spotted” could best be replaced by ____.
A) speckled B) featured
C) noticed D) damaged
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
The producers of instant coffee found their product strongly resisted in the market places despite their manifest (明顯的) advantages. Furthermore, the advertising expenditure for instant coffee was far greater than that for regular coffee.
Efforts were made to find the cause of the consumers' seemingly unreasonable resistance to the product. The reason given by most people was dislike for the taste. The producers suspected that there might be deeper reasons, however. This was confirmed by one of motivation research's classic studies, one often cited in the trade. Mason Haire, of the University of California, constructed two shopping lists that were identical except for one item. There were six items common to both lists: hamburger, carrots(胡蘿蔔), baking powder, bread, canned peaches and potatoes, with the brands or amounts specified. The seventh item, in the fifth place on both lists, read “11b. Maxwell House coffee” on one list and “Nescafe instant coffee” on the other. One list was given to each person in a group of fifty women, and the other list to those in another group of the same size. The women were asked to study their lists and then to describe, as far as they could, the kind of woman (“personality and character”) who would draw up that shopping list. Nearly half of those who had received the list including instant coffee described a housewife who was lazy and a poor planner. On the other hand, only one woman in the other group described the housewife, who had included regular coffee on her list, as lazy; only six of that group suggested that she was a poor planner. Eight women felt that the instant coffee user was probably not a good wife! No one in the other group drew such a conclusion about the housewife who intended to buy regular coffee.
36.The fact that producers found resistance to their product despite the fact that they spent more advertising money on instant than regular coffee shows that ____.
A) advertising does not assure favorable sales result
B) companies spent more money on advertising than they should
C) people pay little attention to advertising
D) the more one advertises the better the sales picture
37.In this instance, the purpose of motivation research was to discover ____.
A) why people drink coffee
B) why instant coffee did not taste good
C) why regular coffee was successful
D) the real reason why people would not buy instant coffee
3.This investigation indicated that ____.
A) 50 percent of housewives are lazy
B) housewives who use instant coffee are lazy
C) many women believe that wives who use instant coffee are lazy
D) wives who use regular coffee are good planners
39.On the results of this test, the producers probably revised their advertising to show a ____.
A) lazy housewife using regular coffee
B) hard?working housewife using instant coffee
C) lazy housewife using instant coffee
D) man obviously enjoying the taste of instant coffee

Part Ⅳ
短文大意
本篇短文主要說明了個人的主觀能動性是取得成功的主要因素。那些在大學裏學習想獲取很大成就的學生往往比那些標準不高的學生的考分高得多。那麼 個人如何才能獲取較大的成績呢 ?主要靠個人的奮鬥，也就是說，個人必須具有很強烈的獲得成功的積極性。這種積極性不要別人監督，要對自己負責，要具有一定的良好素質——具有較大的成 就，要有很強的積極性，有進取心，而不是僅僅爲了找一份工作，混口飯吃而已。研究表明，有些的確有所作爲的人爲了避免失敗則有更強的進取心。
71. 【參考答 案】individual motivation for work【解題技巧】利用短文中的關鍵詞進行總結。【詳細解答】要找一篇文章的主題，必須首先對全文有所瞭解。本題的答案是不可能從某一句話或某一段落能夠找得到的。這就需要有全局觀念，要有概括能力，要從關鍵詞中找答 案。文章的第一段主要說明了有進取心的學生往往考分較高，這種進取心來自一種動力 (motivation)。第二段主要說明那些有強烈願望取得好成績的人都有一種很強的motivation，這種積極性或原動力是不需要有人監督的。第三段最後一句話高度概括了這一段落的中心意思。然後，把三段的主要內容融合在一起考慮，就不難得出這樣的結論： individual motivation for work。
72. 【參考答案】by working well alone【解題技巧】可以利用原文中的關鍵詞語來確定答案。【詳細解答】要回答這個問題，需要從字行裏去找答 案，因爲有些問題比較直觀。個人如何獲得好成績 ?是靠個人的努力或是靠監管人員的監督?在第二段中有這樣一句話： Their desire for accomplishment is a stronger motivation than any situation the supervisor can provide由此可知，個人的成績是靠自己的努力，靠動力，而不是靠別人的監管。
73. 【參考答案】accept responsibilities for themselves or be responsible for themselves【解題技巧】通過總結和推理找出答案。【詳細解答】根據短文意思，有爭勝心的人往往會自己對自己負責。要回答這個問題是不能從某一句話或某一段落中找答 案的，就必須對整篇文章進行概括和總結，並根據問題的提出進行推理。前面已經講過，學習好要有動力，取得成功要有動力，要靠本人，而不是靠別人的監管和督促，從而也就得出結論：成功要靠自己 (Be responsible for themselves)。
74. 【參考答案】high achievement needs【解題技巧】從段落中的關鍵詞語中找答 案。【詳細解答】招聘人員對大學高年級學生訓練成管理人材的素質要求是：要有很強的事業心和進取精神。這可以從短文的第三段中看得出來，如： Thoughts concerning the achievement drive are often prominent in the evaluations made by the typical employment interviewer who interviews college seniors for excutive training.這段文字的關鍵詞語是：achievement drive(成就動力)，也就是achievement needs。
75. 【參考答案】they are afraid of failing【解題技巧】需要從字行裏找答 案，根據關鍵詞語進行推理。【詳細解答】 What motivates some seniors to succeed?要回答這個問題，需要仔細分析文章的最後一句話： Research indicates that some who do get ahead have an even stronger drive to avoid failure. 研究說明有些的確能夠進取的人甚至有更強的避免失敗的動力。這種避免失敗的動力，實際上就是害怕失敗。

寫作指導
這是一篇描寫文 (Description)。用通俗的話說，描寫文就是用文字給人物、地點、景物畫象。一篇描寫文主要是通過所感受的細節——所見所聞發展而來的。在寫人 時，不僅僅要用細節描寫其外貌，而要注重通過他的言行來表現其人物性格、思想和品德，更要抓住他區別於他人的性格特點，這樣就容易給讀者留下深刻的印象。短文的第一、二段敘述故事發生的時間、地點，故事發生的原因及故事所涉及的人物。文章的三、四、五段描寫的是人物的外貌，穿着及性格特點。通過對人物言行 的簡單描寫來揭示主人翁的助人爲樂的高尚精神。短文的最後一段，要用一句話概括作者對主人翁的看法： A good guy。文章有描述，有議論，要加敘加議，有血有肉，上下文連貫要緊密，首尾要呼應，人和事要給人們留下深刻印象。
Sample Writing
The First Impression of My Roommate
It was my first day at the institute. I got into the building where I was going to live, and looked door after door for my name. At last I found it. In the room, there was already a student making his bed. After we said “how do you do?” to each other, he continued his work, paying no more attention to me. I looked around the room and found that it had been thoroughly cleaned. No doubt it was he who had done it.I looked at him. He was thin, short and dark. His hair was like a bundle of straw. His dirty clothes and tired look told me that he had had a long journey. His clothes were made of cheap cloth, and he wore a pair of rubber shoes, which were very unfashionable. He was not a very smart freshmen at all.
The second time he spoke, his accent told me that he was from the south. “Shall I help you to get your luggage from the office?”
I did not refuse since I really needed help. He was quick in movement. He walked out of the room and was soon far ahead of me to the office.
“A good guy,”I said to myself.“I will make friends with him ”,and I hurried and caught up with him.
