A
I
once brought some foreign friends to visit a Malay kampong a few kilometres
outside the city. These friends from Australia were rather interested in
finding out how Malay villagers lived. I decided the best way was to take them
to an actual Malay kampong where they could see for themselves.
The
kampong we visited was a seaside kampong. Naturally most of the kampong folk
were fishermen although some were engaged in other jobs.
There
were about thirty houses –most of them were wooden structures with attaproofs.
There were no fences to separate the houses ----they had a sort of communal
garden. Each family had its own small plot of land where they planted flowers
or vegetables. They had no piped water supply but depended on wells for their
water.
The
kampong folk kept ducks and chickens which were allowed to wander freely about
the compound. The visitors were surprised that the people in the kampong were
so friendly and helpful towards one another. Although they shared communal
gardens or compounds, there was no bickering or quarrelling.
Most
of the houses were built on stilts and we also found large numbers of coconut
trees growing within the kampong. We were invited into one of the kampong
houses for some refreshments. Later the visitors took some photographs and
walked round the village. We thanked the headman for allowing us the
opportunity of visiting the village.
1. According to the writer, _____.
A. all of the kampong folk were fishermen B.
most of the kampong folk were farmers
C. most of them earn their living by fishing D. not one of them was a fisherman
2. Most of the kampong houses were_____.
A. stone structure B.
made of wood and attap
C. made of mud D.
made of cement and wood
3. The visitors were surprised because
____.
A.
the kampong was so dirty
B.
B. the kampong folk were so
kind and friendly
C. the kampong folk were always quarrelling
D. the villagers kept so many ducks and chickens
4. The kampong houses _____.
A. stood on stilts B.
were built on the sea
C. were built on tree tops D.
stood on the rocks
5. The kampong the writer and his friends
visited______.
A. had piped water supply B.
used sea water
C. depended on wells for their water supply D. had no water supply at all

New
Year’s Day is the world’s oldest celebration. In fact, ancient people
celebrated the new year even before they had exact ways of measuring time. New
Year’s Day also is the one holiday that is observed everywhere in the world, by
people of all national and religious(宗教的)groups.
Not
everyone celebrates the new year at the same time, members of the Russian
Orthodox(东正教)Church,
for examples, observe it on January thirteenth. The Chinese celebrate at
different times each year, sometime between January twenty—first and February
nineteenth. But the majority of people today—including Americans –celebrate the
new year on January first.
In
some countries, the New Year’s holiday is the most important celebration of the
year. This is not true in the United States, even though it is a celebration
that many people enjoy. One reason may be that Christmas comes just one week
before the new year. Christmas is American’s biggest holiday. And many people
give it the importance that people in other countries give the start of a new
year.
The
most popular way to welcome the new year in the United States is with a big
party. Some parties are at private homes. But in recent years, it has become
more and more common for Americans to go to a hotel or eating place on the
night of December thirty—first. There, they can eat a big dinner, drink
champagnes, and dance to orchestra music deep into the night.
6. The best title of this short passage
would be ____.
A. The Oldest Holiday B.
The History of the New Year’s Day
C. New Year’s Celebration D.
The Most Important Celebration
7. It can be learned from the text that
____.
A. different countries celebrate the new year at different time
B. all the countries celebrate the new year at the same time
C. people began to celebrate the new year when they could measure
time exactly
D. some countries, such as Russia, China and so on do not celebrate
the new year
8. Some Russians celebrate the new year on
_____.
A. January first B.
January thirteenth
C. January twenty-first D.
February nineteenth
9. The New Year’s holiday is not the most

A.

celebration
B.
B. they do not think it the
start of a new year
C.
Christmas day is the beginning

new year
10. Nowadays the most common way to welcome
the new year in America is to ____.
A. hold a private party at home B.

C
Plants
seem to know which way is up and which way is down; moreover, they seem to know
right from left. If a cutting from a poplar(白杨)tree is kept alive, new shoots will grow from the end that grew on
the top in the tree.
There
is no clear difference between the top and the bottom of the living stick, even
under a microscope. Even so, the stick will not send out shoots from the end it
regards as bottom even if this end happens to be top!
Scientists
studying this subject further split their cuttings. To their surprise, they
made another interesting discovery. A good many more young leaves grew on the
right-hand side of the split surface than on the left. They split the stick
again and found that the young leaves again grew on the right sides.
The
results of the entire study showed that 40-60%of the cutting preferred the
right side, proving that growing plants are usually “right-handed”.
11.
“Up” and “Down” on a cutting
are decided by the _____.
A.
position in which the cutting
is planted
B.
B. “up” and “down” of the earliest plant
C.
kind of plant from which the
cutting was taken
D.
D. size of the cutting
12.
If a cutting is placed upside
down in the lab, _____.
A. the earliest
“up” will begin to grew leaves B. the part
on top will begin to grow leaves
C. leaves will
grow at either end D.
the cutting will not develop at all
13.
If the cutting is split in
half, the young leaves will ______.
A. appear mostly
on the right surface B.
all appear on the left surface
C. not grow at
all D.
grow on the “down” end
14.
When the scientists split the
sticks a second time, the cuttings_____.
A. failed to
grow young leaves
B. appeared to
lose knowledge of their earliest “up” and “down”
C. no longer
showed knowledge of left and right
D. still showed
“right-handedness”
15.
The best title for this article
is ______.
A. A Well-known
Plant Experiment B.

C. How Plants

D
When you buy a
T-shirt, or a fur coat in a store , it often carries a label(标签)telling who made it or from which
shore it was bought. Indeed, some label show the dress is famous and it is very
expensive, so buyers secretly wish they might be carried for ever. On the other
hand, buyers who deal with the cheapest products(产品) would be pleased to do away with labels entirely.
However,
there is another label more important than the one showing from which store the
dress was bought. When a person buys a fur coat, or a jacket from a store, a
label telling what the product is made of should be carried to it.
This
label is required by law. Besides telling what the product on show is made of,
the label should be in clear English and be where one can find it easily. The
information on the label must be the truth.
The
reason for this label is that most buyers today aren’t expected enough to know
exactly what kind of fur or material they are buying. The buyer must believe in
the store that sells the products or in what the labels say.
16.
The law requires that furs
carry a ______.
A. clean label B
clear label
C. white label D
secret label
17.

A. black-market

_______.
A. making furs
and cloths B.

C keeping the
buyer informed D.
businessmen and sellers
19.
The author doesn’t agree that
_______.
A.
buyers buy the clothes without
labels B. clothing
stores sell cheap dresses
C.
all the products have labels D.
labels are not true
20.
Which of the following is true?
A. A T-shirt
seldom carries a label.
B. A fur coat
with a high price often carries a false label
C. A label only
says what material the product is made of.
D. Not all
buyers know the materials they are buying.

Japan
has a problem many other countries would envy—his workforce works too hard.
Curing
Japanese workers of disease “workaholism” is proving a difficult job partly
because many of them like work better than anything else, experts say.
Last
month, the Japanese government passed a law for a 40-hourworking week, down
from 48 hours, to let people spend time away from the office or factory. But it
could be many years before average work hours fall to the new level.
In
1985, Japanese worker worked an average of 2,168 hours a year. But people in
Britain worked 1,952 hours, the United States 1,924, West Germany 1,659 and
France 1, 643.
Many
Japanese workers work long hour not only because of devotion and the pleasure
of the job, but also because of fear and inefficiency.(无效).
Many
people feel that if they take a week off, they will lose touch with the
business and fall behind other people. So they would rather stay at their
desks. It is also considered bad form in many offices to leave before the boss.
So workers will sit at their desks pretending to be busy until their boss
finally puts on his jacket and heads out the door.
20.
According to the passage, Japan
is facing a problem because many workers____.
A. take days off
because of disease B.

happen when one _____.
A. has to do a
very difficult job B.

hours in a place D.
suffers a lot at work
22.
The passage tells that in Japan
_____.
A. the boss is
usually the last to leave the office
B. the boss is
usually the first to leave the office
C. workers are
usually busier than the boss
D. workers are
the busiest than the boss
23.
The Japanese government is
trying to get workers to _____.
A. work more
efficiently B.
work even harder
C. work fewer
hours D.
stay away from the offices
