ComprehensionComprehension 3030 marksmarks Directions Read the following three passages Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements For each of them there are four choices marked A B C and D Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage A A Societies all over the world name 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 die hard and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost Many roads and places in Singapore 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 Bras 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 56 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 57 What does the underlined phrase die hard in Paragraph 1 probably mean 5 A Change suddenly B Change significantly C Disappear mysteriously D Disappear very slowly 58 Which of the following places is named after a person A Raffles Place B Selector Airbase C Piccadilly Circus D Paya Lebar Crescent 59 Bras Basah Road is named A after a person B after a place C after an activity D by its shape 60 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 B B Saturday October 7th was a marathon of sad tasks for Anna Politkovskaya Two weeks earlier her father a retired official in the department of foreign affairs had died of a heart attack as he emerged from the Moscow Metro while on his way to visit Politkovskaya s mother Raisa Mazepa in the hospital She had just been diagnosed 诊断 with cancer and was too weak even to attend her husband s funeral Your father will forgive me because he knows that I have always loved him she told Anna and her sister Elena Kudimova the day he was buried A week later she had an operation and since then Anna and Elena had been taking turns helping her deal with her grief Politkovskaya was supposed to spend the day at the hospital but her twenty six year old daughter who was pregnant had just moved into Politkovskaya s apartment on Lesnaya Street while her own place was being prepared for the baby Anna had so much on her mind Elena Kudimova told me when we met in London before Christmas And she was trying to finish her article Politkovskaya was a special reporter for the small newspaper Novaya Gazeta and like most of her work the piece focused on the terror that can be seen all over the southern republic of Chechnya This time she had been trying to report repeated cruel acts done by people faithful to the Prime Minister Ramzan Kadyrov who are in favour of Russia In the past seven years Politkovskaya had written dozens of accounts of life during wartime many had been collected in her book A Small Corner of Hell reports from Chechnya Politkovskaya was far more likely to spend time in a hospital than on a battlefield and her writing bore frequent witness to robbery and the uncontrolled cruelty of life in a place that few other Russians and almost no other reporters cared to think about 61 Politkovskaya s father died of A tiredness B a heart disease C an attack D an accident 62 From the text we know that Raisa Mazepa A didn t love her husband 6 B didn t attend her husband s funeral C was having an operation the day her husband was buried D was too sad to attend her husband s funeral 63 The underlined word emerged most likely means A came out B went into C disappeared D left for 64 How many members of Anna s family are mentioned in the passage A Three B Four C Five D Six 65 Which of the following words can best describe Politkovskaya s character A Curious B Easy going C Careless D Responsible C C Abby Subark is a mother of two from Boston For my kids I m nervous I don t know if they ll be able to achieve their American dream She may be right More than hard work or education the best way to get rich in America is to be born rich It is the case that somebody who is in the upper third of income poor scores in the bottom on tests when they are in eighth grade is more likely to go to college and finish college than a poor kid with the top scores That s what the working person s children are up against The Economic Policy Institute finds it would take a poor couple with 2 children 9 or 10 generations to achieve middle class status That s about 200 years The hallmark 特征 of American opportunity has always been the ability to do better than your parents But compared with similar developed countries the United States ranks fifth out of six for so called intergenerational mobility 变动 If you look at the mechanisms 机制 for upward mobility that were so readily available 50 years ago they are becoming out of reach like plentiful factory jobs with good wages and affordable education and health care White families are twice as likely as blacks to be upwardly mobile For most people in America today where you end up depends on where you start If you started in the middle income class about 40 to 45 percent of what you are making right now is due to the fact that your parents were in the middle income class The rest is up to you But for the millions of people who find themselves below the poverty line 贫困线 and the millions more who are the working poor their starting point for the American dream leaves them painfully far away from the middle class 66 The main idea of the passage is A How the middle class comes about in the US B It s hard to realize the American dream for the poor C Wealth and social status depend on family background D Upward mobility in America is never easy 67 Which of the statements is NOT true according to the passage A People used to have job opportunities and welfare for upward mobility B A great many poor people can hardly realize their American dream C You can make all your dreams come true in America if born rich D Rich kids are more likely to go to college than poor kids 68 The underlined sentence where you end up depends on where you start most probably means A your starting point cannot determine your destination B only a high goal can ensure success 7 C one s birth has nothing to do with his fate D one s family lays solid foundation for his future achievements 69 Why is Abby Subark nervous A Her kids don t want to compare with other rich kids in achievements B Her kids don t want to achieve success at all C Her kids can achieve success through hard work and education D Her kids can t reach their goal without a rich family 70 What can we infer after reading the passage A Poverty causes people much pain B People below the poverty line can never be in the middle class C Lower starting point makes it hard for people to realize their dream in America D Far fewer poor Americans have their dreams PartPart WritingWriting 4545 marksmarks SectionSection A A 1010 marksmarks Directions Read the following passage Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer Learning to improve your focus throughout the day can be a little difficult only because we are talking about 18 to 24 hours depending on the number of hours you sleep However if we break down your day into manageable time frames it would make it much easier to learn to improve your focus Focus or concentration is a skill that can be taught so there are some exercises you can do to improve your focus Start with easy exercises like staring at a picture on the wall for a few minutes without moving or talking to anyone Once you learn how to block out your surroundings your focus will improve Other mind exercises you can do are internalizing This is when you picture yourself in a desired situation and then you work around your picture Actors do this a lot to block out laughter noise or other distractions An example of this would be to imagine you in a potentially stressful situation like a singer in a concert Try to play out the scene in your mind what you would do if different scenarios were to happen This can actually be a lot of fun and you learn how to improve your focus by concentrating on one thing only If this sounds a little strange to you you could try another strategy Why not make lists Make a list for the things you need to accomplish for the morning another for the afternoon and finally another list for the evening Study your lists carefully and see where you can move things around For instance if you have a dinner to arrange that evening don t bunch up everything in the afternoon right before the guests arrive Divide your chores and errands between morning and afternoon and give yourself an hour or two to relax before the guests arrive Planning helps you focus It will also not stress you out Another way to improve your focus is to take breaks If children have rest and lunch as their breaks adults should also allow themselves the privilege of stopping for a drink or a 30 minute sitcom on TV Of course if you are working in an office you are allowed coffee br
