places in similar ways Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name Frequently it happens that a place has two names One is named by the people and the other by the government As in many areas old habits died hard and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost Many roads and places in Singapore 新加坡 are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place This is in keeping with traditions in many countries in both the West and the East Another way of naming places is naming them after other places Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places Bras Basah Road is an interesting example Base Basah means wet rice in Malay 马来语 Now why would anyone want to name a road Wet Rice Road The reason is simple During the pioneering days wet rice was laid out to dry along this road A few roads in Singapore are named by their shapes There is Circular Road for one Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes like Paya Lebar Crescent This road is called a crescent 月牙 because it begins on the main road makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again 41 We learn from Paragraph 1 that A the government is usually the first to name a place B many places tend to have more than one name C a ceremony will be held when a place is named D people prefer the place names given by the government 42 What does the underlined phrase die hard in Paragraph 1 probably mean A Change suddenly B Change significantly C Disappear mysteriously D Disappear very slowly 43 Which of the following places is named after a person A Raffles Place B Selector Airbase C Piccadilly Circus D Paya Lebar Crescent 44 Bras Basah Road is named A after a person B after a place C after an activity D by its shape 45 What can be inferred from the passage A Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain B Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes C The way Singaporeans name their places is unique D Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers 36 B37 D38 A39 C40 A C A woman from Japan was telling a friend about her trip to the United States The woman had visited major businesses and investment companies in New York City and Chicago I studied English before I left home she said But I still was not sure that people were speaking English Her problem is easy to understand Americans in business are like people who are in business anywhere They have a language of their own Some of the words and expressions deal with the special areas of their work Other expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry One such saying is get your act together When things go wrong in a business an employer may get angry He may shout Stop making mistakes Get your act together Or if the employer is calmer he may say Let us get our act together Either way the meaning is the same Getting your act together is getting organized In business it usually means to develop a calm and orderly plan of action It is difficult to tell exactly where the saying began But it is probable that it was in the theater or movie industry Perhaps one of the actors was nervous and made a lot of mistakes The director may have said Calm down now Get your act together Word expert James Rogers says the expression was common by the late 1970s Mister Rogers says the Manchester Guardian newspaper used it in 1978 The newspaper said a reform policy required that the British government get its act together Now this expression is heard often when officials of a company meet One company even called its yearly report Getting Our Act Together The Japanese visitor was confused by another expression used by American business people It is cut to the chase She heard that expression when she attended an important meeting of one company One official was giving a very long report It was not very interesting In fact some people at the meeting were falling asleep Finally the president of the company said Cut to the chase Cut to the chase means to stop spending so much time on details or unimportant material Hurry and get to the good part Naturally this saying was started by people who make movies Hollywood movie producers believe that most Americans want to see action movies Many of their movies show scenes in which the actors chase each other in cars or in airplanes or on foot Cut is the director s word for stop The director means to stop filming leave out some material and get to the chase scene now So if your employer tells you to cut to the chase be sure to get to the main point of your story quickly 46 After the woman visited the Untied States she might feel that A her English was poor B It s easy to master English C it s difficult to make money D people weren t very friendly 47 In which situation could the words get your act together be used A A task is completed successfully B Players perform badly in

around the earth It forms a special blanket around the planet This blanket protects the earth from dangerous rays produced by the sun Without the ozone layer the earth s climate could warm to dangerous levels This increase in temperature would threaten our survival Scientists recently have discovered a hole in the ozone layer above the Antarctica Now there is great concern that this warning has started endangering all life on the earth What has destroyed part of the ozone layer Scientists do not know for sure They suspect that our popular spray cans 喷漆罐 have played a part in the damage Many spray cans contain dangerous gases These gases might have destroyed the ozone layer fifteen miles above the earth s surface The chemicals used in refrigerators 冰箱 and air conditioners may contribute to the problem too Many scientists believe that the destruction of the ozone layer is a serious problem for people everywhere Global warming could change weather patterns around the world Farmers and ranchers 牧场主 could find it more and more difficult to produce enough food for the earth s people If more of the sun s dangerous rays reached the earth there also could be an increase in skin cancers Some skin cancers might cause people to die Although some scientists do not believe there is a serious danger obviously no one wants to take any chance on such a possibility Can scientists repair the hole in the ozone layer They really don t know the answer to that question Can people do anything to save the ozone layer that the earth still has Scientists stress the need to limit the use of spray cans and other items that contain the dangerous gases This will not be an easy task People all over the world use these items Solving the problem certainly will require commitment and cooperation from everyone 35 The ozone layer exists to A warm the earth to a proper level for life B protect the earth from dangerous sun rays C make all life on the earth in a

containing dangerous gases C There used to be a term that was used to describe someone who drove their vehicles down the highway while staring at the scenery These drivers just drove slowly taking their own sweet time as if they had nothing to do and no place in particular to go Thus the expression Sunday driver was born Consequently a Sunday driver wasn t necessarily someone who was driving on a Sunday A person could be a Sunday driver any day of the week The expression simply meant that the person was an obstacle to other drivers who were in a hurry The expression probably came about because there was a time when people would often decide to go for a relaxing drive on Sunday afternoons A Sunday drive was a common occurrence years ago and especially on a nice warm sunny day There were no stores open on Sunday because of the blue laws so you needed to be sure and fill up the gas tank and make any other needed purchases before Sunday arrived Some of the states had strict blue laws that even prohibited some activities on Sunday However there is still a lot to be said for the slow gentle life that once existed It was a time when very few people worked on Sunday except for those professions vital to our well being such as those in the medical profession It was a day set apart that was used to rest visit with neighbors and friends or maybe go to grandma s house for supper Today there are many who return to work and children who go back to school overly tired on Monday due to a lack of rest Perhaps there would be less stress related illnesses if we really kept Sunday as a day of rest 39 According to the passage Sunday driver refers to the person who A drives his vehicle on Sundays B drives for fun and relaxation C enjoys a weekend break D makes a Sunday purchase 40 What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph l mean A Sunday
