I. Reading Comprehension (本题共15小题,每题2分,共30分)
Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed
by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four
suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.
Passage One
In every school there is “top” crowd that sets the pace, while the others follow
their lead. For example, if the crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red
sweaters, then very soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters.
There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that for some people bright red
sweater is really unsuitable.
The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is
smart to drink and to drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then the people who
follow the lead are endangering their lives. They are like the sheep being led to the
slaughter(屠杀).
Now it’s possible that you have come across situations like these more than
once in your life. In fact you probably did something you knew to be wrong one
time or another. You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.”
Well, let the crowd do it, but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No”.
Develop your own standards(标准)and your own judgment. If you know the
crowd is planning something you disagree to, you’d better take the courage to in a polite way. You’ll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet.

Passage Two
"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in
her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(吃力地喘
着气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby
had been born without ears. Luckily, time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect.
Though the misfortune(不幸)happened to him, he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he
felt ashamed when he communicated with others.
“You should get in touch with other young people,” his mother told him, with a
kindness in her heart. The boy’s father talked with the family doctor about his ears.
“Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of
outer ears, if they could be got,” the doctor replied.
Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You are going to the
hospital, Son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need, but it’
s a secret. ” The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the
diplomatic(外交的)service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave the ears? Who
gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.”
“You could, my son,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to
know…not yet.”
The years kept their secret, but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with
his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly, the father stretched forth(伸出) a "Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut," his father whispered
gently, "and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful, did they?"

Passage Three
To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it
rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. Its first
use was as a shade against the sun!
Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient
times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century
B.C.
We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade.
And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor
and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used
only by royalty or by those in high office.
In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the
umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first
persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient
Romans.
During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it
appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a
symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France, and later
on in England.
By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of
Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they
have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century tha t
women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.
11. According to this passage, the umbrella was probably first invented ________.
A. in ancient China B. in ancient Egypt
C. in ancient Greece D. in ancient Rome
12. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the umbrella?
A. No one exactly knows who the inventor of the umbrella was.
B. The umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sun.
C. The umbrella changed much in style in the eighteenth century.
D. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella.
13. A strange feature of the umbrella’s use is that it was used as ________.
A. protection against rain B. a shade against the sun
C. a symbol of honor and power D. women’s decoration
14. In Europe, the umbrella was first used against the rain ________.
A. during the Middle Ages B. by the eighteenth century
C. in Rome D. in Greece
15. This passage talks mainly about ________.
A. when and how the umbrella was invented
B. why the umbrella was so popular in Europe
C. the development of the umbrella
D. the history and use of the umbrella
