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. Passage One Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any other time in our life. Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are, and few are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion. Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence and deal with every situation confidently and without embarrassment. Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just to dress. A barber today does not cut a boys hair in the same way as he used to, and girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grandmothers did. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case our friends think we are odd or dull. What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can establish a fashion. Take hats for example. In cold climates, early buildings were cold inside, so people wore hats indoors as well as outside. In recent times, the late President Kennedy caused a depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more American men have followed example. There is also a cyclical pattern in fashion. In the 1920s in Europe and America, short skirts became fashionable. After World War , they dropped to ankle length. Then they got shorter and shorter until the miniskirt was in fashion. After a few more years, skirts became longer again. Today, society is much freer and easier than it used to be. It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason, you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans and the untidy look seems to be a reaction against the increasingly expensive fashions of the top fashion houses. At the same time, appearance is still important in certain circumstances and then we must choose our clothes carefully. It would be foolish to go to an interview for a job in a law firm wearing jeans and a sweater; and it would be discourteous to visit some distinguished scholar looking as if we were going to the beach or a night club. However, you need never feel depressed if you dont look like the latest fashion photo. Look around you and youll see that no one else does either! 31. The author thinks that people are _. A) satisfied with their appearance B) concerned about appearance in old age C) far from neglecting what is in fashion D) reluctant to follow the trends in fashion 正确答案： C 32. Fashion magazines and TV advertisements seem to link fashion to _. A) confidence in life B) personal dress C) individual hair style D) personal future 正确答案： A 33. Causes of fashions are _. A) uniform B) varied C) unknown D) inexplicable 正确答案： B 34. Present-day society is much freer and easier because it emphasizes _. A) uniformity B) formality C) informality D) individuality 正确答案： D 35. Which is the main idea of the last paragraph? A) Care about appearance in formal situations. B) Fashion in formal and informal situations. C) Ignoring appearance in informal situations. D) Ignoring appearance in all situations. 正确答案： A Passage Two Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage. Research on friendship has established a number of facts, some interesting, some even useful. Did you know that the average student has 5-6 friends, or that a friend who was previously an enemy is like more than one who has always been on the right side? Would you believe that physically attractive individuals are preferred as friends to those less comely, and is it fair that physically attractive defendants are less likely to be found guilty in court? Unfortunately, such titbits dont tell us much more about the nature or the purpose of friendship. In fact, studies of friendship seem to implicate more complex factors. For example, one function friendship seems to fulfill is that it supports the image we have of ourselves, and confirms the value of the attitudes we hold. Certainly we appear to project ourselves onto our friends; several studies have shown that we judge them to be more like us than they (objectively) are. This suggests that we ought to choose friends who are similar to us rather than those who would be complementary. There have also been studies of pairings, both voluntary (married couples) and forced (student roommates), to see which remained together and which split up. Again, the evidence seems to favor similarity rather than complementarity as an omen of a successful relationship, though there is a complication: where marriage is concerned, once the field has been narrowed down to potential mates who come from similar backgrounds and share a broad range of attitudes and values, a degree of complementarity seems to become desirab1e. When a couple are not just similar but almost identical, something else seems to be needed. Simi1arity can breed contempt, it has also been found that when we find others obnoxious (可憎的), we dislike them more if they are like us than when they are dissimilar! The difficulty of linking friendship with similarity of personality probably reflects the complexity of our personalities: we have many facets and therefore require a disparate (迥然不同的) group of friends to support us. This of course can explain why we may have two close friends who have little in common, and indeed dislike each other. By and large, though, it looks as though we would do well to choose friends (and spouses) who resemble us. If this were not so, computer dating agencies would have gone out of business years ago. 36. Research on friendship has demonstrated that_. A) every student has five or six friends B) judges are always influenced by a pretty face C) ugly people find it harder to make friends than beautiful people D) we tend to grow fond of people if we dislike them at first sight 正确答案： C 37. Studies of friendship have indicated that in seeking friends we_. A) desire to be sympathized and comprehended B) insist on them having similar attitudes to ourselves C) think they resemble us more than they really do D) tend to choose those complementary to us in personality. 正确答案： C 38. Studies of marriage relationships indicate that_. A) exactly the same bases for success apply as for ordinary friendships B) it is first of all necessary to limit prospective partners to people from similar backgrounds C) opposites get on better than similar personalities D) the most successful are those between people who are alike but not exactly the same 正确答案： D 39. Why can two people who have different attitudes towards religion, ethics and aesthetics sometimes become good friends? A) There exist different elements in our personality. B) Our attitudes are always changing. C) We need more friends to help and support us in our life. D) A true friendship can tolerate these differences and last long. 正确答案： A 40.

D) A friend in need is a friend indeed. 正确答案： A Part III Vocabulary and Structure ( 12 minutes ) Directions: There are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.
