Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (Each item: 2) Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 71 to 75 are based on the same passage or dialog.What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any especially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job. Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance at a fresh start at work. 71.Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?A. The importance of doing well at school.B. Using school performance to help to choose a career.C. The importance of being good at all subjects.D.

History.73.The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably _.A. a waste of time that could have been spent on studyB. useful for his future workC. a good way to earn extra moneyD. a good way to find out his weak points74.According to the passage, if a students school record is not good, he _.A. will be a complete failure in his future workB. will not be able to find a suitable jobC. will regret not having worked harder at schoolD. may do well in his future work75.The whole passage centers on _.A. choosing a career according to what one is skilled inB. acquiring knowledge by working hard at schoolC. finding ones strong and weak pointsD. developing ones useful abilities in school workQuestions 76 to 80 are based on the same passage or dialog.As a Canadian bilingual (双语的) teacher, I agree that the Canadian bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. However, Mr. Whelptons suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers. Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom which is a rather sterile explanation. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centered manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests. Mr. Whelptons third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills with others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary? Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Therefore the concept of Cooperative Learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they cooperate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information. 76.How would you describe the writers style?A. Written in an academic style. B. Written in a journalistic style.C. Written in a personal style. D. Written on the basis of widespread research in the area.77.How would you describe the writers attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programs?A. Balanced. B. Unenthusiastic. C. Supportive. D. Critical.78.In Paragraph 1 the writer _.A. agrees completely with Mr. Whelptons argumentB. agrees partially with Mr. Whelptons argumentC. disagrees completely with Mr. Whelptons argumentD. is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelptons argument79.In Paragraph 2 sterile is closest in meaning to _.A. uninformative B. unusual C. exaggerated D. uninspiring80.According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success _.A. because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB. because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the same levelC. because the students can use their first language freelyD. because they work towards real life goalsQuestions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are in limited supply are rationed (供应，分发) among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad (极大数量) of services, including labor, professions, transportation, and public-utility (公用事业) services. The interrelationship of all these prices makes up the system of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else. If one were to ask a group of randomly (任意地) selected individuals to define price, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or, in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far it goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, much more than the money involved must be known. Both the b
