Xinhua reported that a fairly number of foreign students who earned high scores in TOEFL exam turned out to be very ordinary educational performers after admission.Compared with the TOEFL, the APIEL measures a students ability to read, write, speak and understand English testing his or her skills in listening comprehension, speaking with accuracy(精确) and resourcefulness, and writing with clarity and fluency, Jen said.56. The United States will introduce a new exam because _.A. more and more students want to get further education in the USAB. the Chinese people pay attention to English studies with Chinas entry into the WTOC. the already existing exam systems seem to be far from perfectD. it will bring the US government quite a lot of money57. Which of the following statements is true according to the selection?A. It will take quite a period of time for people to accept the APIEL.B. The TOEFL is more popular with the Chinese than the IELTSC. A student will have to take the APIEL if he or she wants to study in English-speaking countries from 2002.D. Chinese students will prefer the IELTS rather than the APIEL even in the future.58. The underlined word current in the second paragraph means _.A. modernB. presentC. standardD. formal59. Please decide which of the following would be the best title for this news report?A. The key to English-speaking CountriesB. The Four Skills in Learning EnglishC. TOEFL, IELTS and GRE to be out of DateD. New Exam Designed for Students.BPlease be advised that Nairobi like any other large city has a security and crime problem. However, if you observe the following simple guidelines you will stay safe and have a trouble-free seminar(研讨会):1. Do not wear a money belt. This makes you an instant target.2. Cameras of all kinds are a favourite with snatchers. Feel free to use them within the Starehe Campus and the hotel grounds but not in the streets.3. Ladies handbags are also a regular snatch, Avoid carrying one, and if you must, be alert and hold on to it tightly.4. Jewellery and even glasses with valuable frames are also often targeted. Bear this in mind.5. When in a vehicle keep the doors always locked, and the windows only slightly open-especially at traffic lights, junctions and in slow moving traffic.6. Beware of street children, their begging often quickly transforms into something more unpleasant.7. Stay with the main party all the time, and avoid wandering off on your own.8. Finally, the best defence is to be alert at all times and conscious of your environment.Should you have any problem, query or need help at any hour of the day or night call any of the following and they will do their beat for you:OFFICE FIXEDHOME FIXEDMOBILE PHONE1KENNEDY HONGO763856/7612217631820733 76129422FRED OKONO7612217649880733 6044903EDWIN OTIENO761221761642/763011072 70129760. This selection must be delivered by _.A. the Nairobe city governmentB. the police of the Nairobe AirportC. the organizer of the seminarD. Kennedy Hongo, a detective61. After reading this notice, visitors to Nairobe might gain an impression that _.A. Fred Okono and his fellow workmates are very kind and helpfulB. Nairobe is a large city which is very developedC.

Everything will be OK if you always watch out and are clear about the surroundingsCThe common cold is the worlds most widespread illness, which is plagues(瘟疫) that flesh receives.The most widespread fallacy(谬误) of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses(病毒) passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explores have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches(战壕) cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch coldsIn the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp(集中营), naked and starving , were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be dipped with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose.If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more freguent in the winter? Despite the most pains-taking research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain suppressors(止疼片) such as aspirin, but all they do is relieve the symptoms(症状).63. The writer offered _ examples to support his argument.A. 4B. 5C. 6D. 364. Which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage?A. The Eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time.B. Colds are not caused by cold.C. People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.D. A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.65.

Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research UnitA. suffered a lotB. never caught coldsC. often caught coldsD. became very strong67. The passage mainly discusses _.A. the experiments on the common coldB. the fallacy about the common coldC. the reason and the way people catch coldsD. the continued spread of common coldsDHaving taken a room at the hotel at which he had been instructed to stay. Smallwood went out; it was a lovely day, early it August, and the sun shone in an unclouded sky. He had not been to Lucerne since he was a boy, but remembered a covered bridge, though not clearly, a great stone lion and a church in which he had sat, bored yet impressed while they played an organ(风琴); and now wandering along a shady quay(码头) he tried not so much to find his way about a half-forgotten scene as to reform in his mind some recollection(回忆) of the shy and eager boy, so impatient for life, who so long ago had wandered there. But it seemed to him that the most lively of his memories was not of himself, but of the crowd; he seemed to remember the sun and the heat and the people; the train was crowded and so was the hotel, the lake steamers were packed and on the quays and in the streets you found your way among the holiday-makers. They were fat and old and ugly and strange.Now, in wartime, Lucerne was as deserted as it must have been before the world discovered that Switzerland was the play-ground of Europe. Most of the hotels were closed, the streets were empty, the boats for hire rocked idly at the waters edge and there was none to take them, and in the avenue by the lake the only persons to be seen were serious Swiss taking their dogs for their daily walk. Smallwood felt happy and, sitting down on a bench that faced the water, surrendered(听任) himself to the sensation. The blue water, snowy mountains, and their beauty hit you in the face. So long, at all event, as the fine weather lasted he was prepared to enjoy himself. He didnt see why he should not at least try to combine pleasure to himself with advantage to his country.68. Smallwood went to Lucerne _.A. to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the areaB. to finish a special taskC. to visit his friend thereD. to get in touch with the shy and eager boy69.
