engineering was a natural choice because my father, who worked in it all his life, made it sound so interesting. so i took a structural engineering diploma course(文凭课程）at the singapore polytechnic. i found my course interesting. my teacher, mr sia, encouraged us not only to do well in studies, but also in competitions like the singapore river raft race. it was a wonderful feeling when our team came in first. i became very active in the international students interest group and was elected vice-president in my second year. some of my closest friends today came from this group, which provides activities for all the international students. all of us had to do two periods of internship(学习期)as part of our course. i spent the first period of eight weeks in a construction company in my hometown. for the second eight weeks, i was attached to singapores load transport authority, working on road design projects. the internship provided good experience. i completed my course in 1998. despite the economic depression at that time, i was fortunate to find a job almost immediately. for the next year, i worked as a site supervisor (监管). i accepted the offer of permanent resident status in singapore. then i decided to go to the national university of singapore last july. with my polytechnic diploma, i was given direct entry into the second year of the civil engineering degree program. i expect to complete my degree in two years time. civil engineering really interests me and i am looking forward to practicing as a professional engineer.51. in this passage, the writer

himself a job in singapore b. worked on road design projects c. completed his degree in civil engineering d. practiced as a civil engineer(b) san francisco is where i grew up between the ages of two and ten and where i lived for a period when i was about 13 and again as a married man from the ages of 37 to 51. my mother, who is now 90, shit lives in los gatos, about 60 miles south of san francisco. i settled in london over 25 years ago. i was born in new york and love the united states. i have grown new roots(根) in london as i did in france and if i were asked now where i want to live for ever, i would say london. but i will always remain an american citizen.san francisco, like london, has many parks. every day my sisters and i were taken to play in the parks as children. i didnt go to school. my whole formal education lasted three hours when i was five. i was sent to school but came home at noon on the first day and said i didn,t enjoy it, so i hadn,t learned anything. my parents decided, wisely i think, that school was not for me and i never went back.my mother then took over my education and brought up my two sisters and more rather in the way of an english lady who had good education. a lot of attention was paid to languages and reading rather than sciences and mathematics. sometimes she taught us herself, but we also had other teachers and we were required to take lessons every day. about once a week we walked to golden gate park and on our walks my mother taught me to read music. one day i noticed a little toy train in the window of a shop and i remember now how i d like to have it. i couldnt roll myr when i was small and my mother, who was very strict with pronunciation, said if i could pronounce an r well, id have the toy train. i practiced and practiced and one morning woke everybody up with my r s. i got the toy train. i usually get the things i want in lifebut i work hard for them.55. the underlined wordrollin the last paragraph probably means . a. speak b. pronouncec. spelld. turn over and over56. why didn t the writer attend school in america? a. his mother wanted him to go to school in england b. his parents did not think formal

writer got the little toy train by . a. borrowing the money from his sisters b. learning to read mathematics c. succeeding in speaking properly d. working hard at his lessons(c) after years of study, i have known there are only two types of people in this world: those who get to the airport early and those who arrive as the plane is about to take off. if there were any justice in this world, the early-airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late-airport people would be punished. but the early-airport people get ulcers(溃疡), heart attacks and bite their fingernails to the bone(急得团团转). the late-airport people are hardly aware that they are flying. a guy of that kind once said,“don t hurry. if you miss your flight, its because god didn t want you to go.”this is clearly a guy who is never going to get an ulcer. early-airport people suffer another“name”. they are called exactly what they arewimps(懦夫). i know. i am an early-airport person for years. my luggage will get on the plane first, which makes it the last luggage they take off the plane after landing. another strange thing: no matter how early i showed up, i was always told that someone had called two or three years ahead of me and asked for the best seat. i figured it was a trick. i figured there was someone in america who called every airline every day and said,“is that wimp simon flying somewhere today? if he is, give me his seat.”after a lifetime arguing with my wife over whether i really have to pack 24 hours in advance and set the alarmclock four hours ahead, i have learned another fact about early-airport people and late-airport people:they always marry each other.59. we can learn from the passage that . a. late-airport persons often get ulcers or heart attacks b. early-airport persons are always relaxed during the flight c. early-airport persons get their luggage first after landing d. late-airport persons always take things easy60. the fifth paragraph mainly tells us . a. someone always plays tricks on the writer b. the airlines usually fool passengers c. early-airport persons always can t get good seats d. the service of airlines is very bad61. it could be inferred that the writers wife is . a. an early-airport woman b. a late-airport woman c. a hot-tempered woman d. a sensitive woman62. the writing style of the passage would be best described as . a serious b. simplec. humorous d. ironic(d) emotions affect our bodiessometimes people call each other “scaredy-cat”, but have you ever thought about this expression? when a cat is frightened, its heart starts beating faster, its muscles get tense, and there are changes in the chemicals in its blood-stream.although the cat doesnt realize this, its body is getting ready for action.if the danger continues, this animal will do one of the two things. it will defend itself or it will run away as fast as it can.something like this also happens to people. when we are excited, angry, scared, or aroused by other emotions, our bodies go through many physical changes. our hearts beat faster, and our muscles get tense. all of these changes make us more alert and ready to react, we, too, get ready to defend ourselves or run.human beings, however, have a problem that animals never face. if we give way to our feelings and let them take over, we can get into trouble. have you ever said something in anger-or hit somebody-and regretted it later? have you ever shouted at a teacher, told somebody you were lonely or said you were in love, and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut? it isnt always wise to express your feelings freely. does this mean that its smarter always to hide our feelings? no! if you keep feelings of anger, sadness, and bitterness hidden away or bottled up inside, your body stays tense. physical illness can develop, and you can feel churned up inside. it can actually be bad for your health. feelings that you keep all bottled up inside dont just go away. its as if you bought some bananas and stuck them in a cupboard. you might not be able to see them, but before long youd smell them. and if you opened the cupboard chances are youd see little fruit flies hovering all over them. theyd be rotten. you can try to treat emotions as if they were bananas in the cupboard you can hide them and you can pretend they dont exist, but theyll still be around and at last you will have to deal with them, just like those bananas.63. its mentioned in the passage that human beings get into trouble because . a. they are not as alert as animals b. they sometimes cant control their feelings c. they always do something wrong to other people d. they dont pay any attention to their physical changes64. the underlined phrase“churned up”in the sixth paragraph . a. very disappointed b. beaten heavily c. very frightened d. disturbed badly65. the author wants to tell us in the last two paragraphs that . a. youll not completely get away from your feelings b. you should treat emotions as bananas in a cupboard c. feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in d. it is good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside66. the author writes this article in order to . a. tell us that it isnt good to keep feelings inside b. give us some advice on how to express our feelings c. make us dea
