1、長(zhǎng)篇閱讀10題，總分值：20分Directions： You are going to read a passage with 10 statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a l

2、etter.Proactive Strategies to Build a Social LifeA) A lot of people believe that developing a social life is something that should just happen and develop naturally, without you needing to do anything. I disagree. I think that while this can happen for some folks, in certain stages of their life, it

3、s not always the case, which is why many of us today lack a fulfilling social life. If youre in college where you get to hang around lots of other people and youre naturally a social person, your social circle will develop on its own. But if youre an accountant working in cubicle all day and youre k

4、ind of shy and dont go out much, your social life may be seriously deficient.B) In my view, building a social life requires the same active and strategic approach that making money or building a career requires. The approach is based on setting goals and acting on them. Coming from this angle, I wan

5、t to show you some proactive (積極主動(dòng)的) strategies to build a social life.C) A fulfilling social life looks differently for different people. Some of us need lots of friends and a large social circle. Some of us are more fond of having just a few friends, but who are very close to us. And some prefer a

6、 mix of the two. What is your preference? Do you know? Take some time to think about this and visualize what your ideal social circle would look like.D) Another aspect to think about is what kind of people you want in your social circle. Do you prefer people who are artistic, or people who are tech-

7、oriented? People who are outdoorsy or prefer to be indoors? Usually, you will get along best with individuals who are similar to you. So I advise you to consider your dominant traits and consciously decide which of these traits are important for you to find in others. If you know what kind of people

8、 you want in your life, youre much more likely to find them.E) Once you know how many and what kind of friends youre looking for, its time to take action in order to meet them. This may seem obvious, but its something many of us ignore: If you just wait for others to come to you, youll never build a

9、 social circle. You must have the initiative and go to them.F) My recommendation here is to think about activities where you are likely to meet people youd enjoy interacting with, and get involved in a few of them. For instance, you may take a class on a topic youre interested in. You may volunteer

10、for a charity organization or join some sort of club. Even if you dont have any friends whatsoever at this point, you can apply this strategy. You can get involved in such activities all by yourself, and youll meet others there.G) In using this strategy, the Internet is your friend. You can discover

11、 all sorts of classes, social events, clubs and organizations near you online. But keep in mind that this is only the first step. Then you need to actually get out of the house, go there and participate.H) So you attend a training program on, lets say, urban photography. There are lots of other peop

12、le there. What do you do? In general, the passive approach tends to prevail. Many of us just sit around doing nothing and expect others to come talk to us, ask us questions, and be chatty. And this may happen, or it may not. One thing Im certain of, though, is that its not the best approach. You wan

13、t to be friendly first. Be the one to break the ice.I) Walk up to other people and introduce yourself to them. Then start chatting with them. For example, ask them how they found out about the event, how long theyve been interested in urban photography, change from there into other topics, and if th

14、ey seem to enjoy talking to you (which they almost always will), keep the conversation going. Doing this may not be easy at first, especially if youre not used to being this outgoing, but its something you get used to with practice. The trick is not to let hesitancy prevent you from being social. An

15、d I can tell from experience that if you are social and friendly with new people first, theyll love you for it.J) If youre building a new social life from scratch, the beginning is always the hardest part. However, once youve met a few people, it gets a lot easier because you can then make use of th

16、em to meet even more people. You can then meet some of their friends and acquaintances, and expand your social circle further.K) Again, a proactive approach works miracles. Let your friends know that youre interested in meeting new people and youd love to be introduced to other people they know. If

17、they indeed are your friends, theyll love to help you out. They may invite you to come with them to parties they go to, they may call other people to join you when you go out, and theyll introduce you to new people. But you have to let them know their help is desired.L) The best part is that the big

18、ger your social circle becomes, the easier it is to employ this strategy. Your social life will expand faster and faster, and youll find it progressively easier to find people you match well with.M) Your social life is completely in your hands. You can have a social life as rich, connected and diver

19、se as you want. All you need is to do a bit of smart planning in this area, and take massive action. There is certainly no shortage of possibilities to meet people and make friends. Its up to you to capitalize on them. Good luck!1)You will meet some people you would like to interact with when you ta

20、ke part in some activities.F2)Peoples ideas of a satisfying social life vary from person to person.C3)You can enlarge your social circle by taking advantage of your current friends.J4)Nowadays many people lack a happy and satisfying social life because their social life doesnt always develop natural

21、ly as they think.A5)You have complete control over your social life and you can have a fulfilling one by making plans and taking actions.M6)The common thing between building a social life and building a career is that they both require using some methods and strategies actively.B7)Its not easy to be

22、 outgoing and sociable among the people you dont know, but youll be used to it with practice.I8)It will be helpful in building your ideal social circle if you know your major characteristics and personality.D9)Many people often ignore that they should go to find friends actively and not simply wait

23、for others to come to them.E10)Suppose you participate in a training program, you are advised to be friendly and break the silence first.H參考答案：1)F 2)C 3)J 4)A 5)M 6)B 7)I 8)D 9)E 10)H閱讀理解15題，總分值：30分Directions： Read the following passages carefully. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfin

24、ished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best answer to each question.When the telephone rings late at night, most women guess it must be one of only four or five people calling. A sister? Maybe. An emergency? Possibly. A mother?

25、 time of night. Much more likely it is a close female friendsomeone calling to tell you that she has split up with her boyfriend again or perhaps simply that a good movie has just started on TV.At a time when families are spread far and wide and marriages often end in divorce, friendships of intimac

26、y and trust are becoming more and more important. Erika, a 32-year-old lawyer, is strengthened by her ten-year friendship with her married friend Jane. “I was very sick one night, and so I called Jane at about 3:00a.m. to talk about it,” she says. “She was very supportive and even came over to take

27、me to the doctors the next morning.”As American TV shows likeFriends, which follows the lives of a very close group of young friends, have become very popular, many of us are beginning to see the value of such friendships. TV shows like this tell us that our romantic relationships may not last, but

28、we need to keep in touch with our close friends if we want to survive. Also, a TV show calledReal Womenis about the lives and relationships of five former school friends. In this show, family, husbands, and work are all less important than friendships. Friendship is about commitment and loyalty.This

29、 is true of Erika and Janes friendship. With Ericas family 200 miles away, it is Jane who keeps a spare set of keys to Erikas apartment and waters her plants whenever she is away. “Having Jane around gives me a certain amount of freedom. It is not the kind of thing that you could ask anyone to do, b

30、ut she knows I would do the same for her.” Jane, who may move to a different city soon, is worried about leaving such a support system of friends. “My friends have more to do with my life than my parents and, therefore, I dont have to spend a lot of time explaining things to them.

But people in Europe did not like this strange vegetable. Some people thought that if you ate potatoes, your skin wo

37、uld look like the skin of a potato. Other people could not believe that you ate the underground part of the plant, so they ate the leaves instead. This made them sick because there is poison in the leaves. Others grew potatoes for their flowers. At one time in France, potato flowers were one of the

38、most expensive flowers.Around 1780, the people of Ireland started to eat potatoes. They found that potatoes had many advantages.

39、o plant the potatoes, and then they could do other work on the farm. On a small piece of land, a farmer could grow enough potatoes to feed his family.

40、nd. In 1845, a disease killed all the potatoes in Ireland. Two million people died of hunger.
