四、Reading Comprehension(共 4 道试题,共 40 分。)
1. Morgan Rees has always been a good businessman. He used to own three petrol stations and was
busy most of the time. When he was 65, the normal retirement age, he decided that he didn't want to
stop, so he carried on working for another two years. Eventually, when he was nearly 68, his wife, Dolly,
asked him to retire because she wanted to enjoy their old age together. Reluctantly, he handed over the
business to his son.
But he was unhappy. He didn't know what to do with himself. Although he read a lot of books and he
went on holiday to interesting places with his wife, he was bored and began to get depressed because
he hated being retired.
Then one day he saw an advertisement in the newspaper and, without telling his wife, he bought a small
crockery factory. The next week he told his family. They were horrified and worried. They thought he was
too old at 71 to start work again.
He is now 76 and he has expanded the company considerably. He has increased the number of staff
from 6 to 24 and he has found many new customers for the products.
He has developed the export market and has improved profits by 200%. He has opened a new design
office and employed three young designers. They have been all over the world to get new ideas, and

2. Hello, new students!
This is a message from the Students Union Committee.
We've been at the university for at least a year now, so we can give you some good tips. Don't worry –
we remember being new and making a lot of mistakes! And we haven't forgotten feeling a little bit
scared.
First, as you know, there are no longer any grants. If you borrow money from the government, remember
that like all loans, you have to pay it back. Spending all your money in the first week is not a
sensible strategy. Try to make a budget for each term and stick to it. But if you are struggling to make
ends meet, you can get a part-time job–restaurants and bars in the town take lots of students on in the
evenings and at weekends. Come and see us for advice.
Stop worrying about making new friends. Start to join the sports and hobbies societies – they're cheap
and you can begin meeting a lot of people that way. It's a great chance to take up a completely new
hobby.
Living in a new city a long way from home can be very stressful. One tip, don't forget your parents. After
all, they are paying your tuition fees here. You will be very busy working and enjoying yourself, but
stop to phone your parents sometimes and don't forget to go home for the weekend from time to time.
And remember to take your dirty washing!
Finally, remember to work hard and play hard. Go on working steadily towards your first degree (BA or
BSc) throughout your three years here – try to keep things in perspective. You'll always find someone
in the Student Union office if you need to talk.
1). What does the word "scared" mean in the second paragraph?
A. excited
B. frightened
C. worried
D. new
正确答案:C 满分:2 得分:0
2). What does the word "grants" mean in the third paragraph?
A. money given by the government to support the students' study, which they needn't pay back
B. money from the government which the students need to pay back
C. money from the school which is similar to scholarship
D. a kind of loan from the government with low interests
正确答案:B 满分:2 得分:0
3). The sentence "But if you are struggling to make ends meet, …at weekends" in the third
paragraph implies_________.
A. if you are short of money, you can find a part-time job in the restaurants and bars in your
spare time
B. if you want to have a better life than others, you can find a part-time job in your spare time
C. restaurants and bars need more hands in the evenings and at weekends
D. restaurants and bars don't need more hands in the evenings and at weekends
正确答案:B 满分:2 得分:2

home, _________.
A. it's better for new students to talk to their parents over the phone from time to time
B. new students need to do their washing themselves
C. new students should keep themselves as busy as possible so that they will not miss home

3. Lillian Hanson, a college student, expects to graduate in about two years. What makes Mrs Hanson
different from her classmates is her age ? 73 years. She has been studying at college, a few courses
at a time, for 27 years.
When Lillian Hanson graduated from high school, she went to the bank to borrow money for further
education. The banker gave her no encouragement. He didn't think that a country girl should borrow
money to go to college. He thought she should be at home doing work in the house or around the farm.
So Lillian Hanson went home and raised a family of nine children instead of going to college. Mrs
Hanson never forgot her dream of getting a higher education. When her children were grown, she tried
again.
She finds the hardest part of going back to school at her age is to sit in class for long periods of time.
Because she is not as quick as she used to be, Mrs Hanson often gets up and walks around classes
to keep from getting stiff(不灵活). At the beginning of a course in using the computer, the other students
all stood up to give her a warm welcome when she introduced herself and explained why she was there
