Passage 1
One of the oldest customs of mankind is the celebration of the New Year. Some people say the Chinese were the first to start it, others believe it was the ancient Germans, and still others claim it was the Romans.
We know that the Chinese have always had a great festival at the time of their New Year, which comes later than ours. The Chinese New Year festival lasts several days. The ancient Germans established a New Year festival because of the changing seasons. The German winter began at the middle of November. This was the time when they gathered the harvest, because everybody came together at this time for the happy occasion, and because it meant they would have a period of rest from work afterwards. They would make merry and have a great holiday. Even though it was November, they considered it the beginning of the New Year! When the Romans conquered (入侵) Europe, they changed this time of celebration to the first of January.
From then on the coming of the New Year was a symbol of a new life with new hope for the future. This custom and this meaning have lasted to this day. We celebrate the New Year hoping it will bring us a good life.
| 46. | What do you think the author's nationality is? |
| A. Chinese. B. German. C. Roman. D. None of the above. |
| 47. | Who are NOT said to have started the celebration of the New Year? |
| A. Chinese. B. Americans. C. Germans D. Romans. |
| 48. | Why do people celebrate the New Year festival nowadays? |
| A. It means a period of rest from work. B. It brings us a good life. C. It symbolizes a new life with new hope. D. It means a happy occasion. |
| 49. | After the Romans conquered Europe, when did the Germans celebrate their New Year festival? |
| A. November. B. December. C. January D. February. |
| 50. | What's the passage mainly about? |
| A. How to celebrate the New Year. B. The origin of the New Year festival. C. The difference between the Western New Year and the Chinese New Year. D. The significance of the New Year festival. |
Directions: Read the following passage and give brief answers to the questions following it. Use as few words as possible. (5 points)
Passage 1
At university you meet many different types of students. There are lazy students, smart students, and students who are so intelligent that they hardly have to work at all.
An interesting game to play is to put people into types. For example, the ambitious student is very easy to identify. Not only do they work extremely hard but they also make sure that they know the right people and attend the right events. You'll see them chatting to lecturers after a lecture is finished. They usually look serious and carry big bags of books.
The party girl is easily recognized by her fashionable clothes and the fact that at every party you go to she's surrounded by friends.
Then there's the "techy", a student who knows everything about computers and technology. They can be found at most times of the day playing with a computer.
The "organizer" is another type that's very recognizable. They love to organize things, whether it's parties or club meetings. And of course, there's always the "last minute" student. They may be very good students, but they always hand in assignments at the last moment, and they arrive at a lecture one minute before it's about to begin. Although I'd rather not be a "last minute" type, that's what I am, I'm afraid!
51.There is a student who work extremely hard and often chat to lecturers after a lecture is finished.
| What kind of student is he/she?_________________________________________________. |
| 52. | Who can be easily recognized by fashionable clothes?_______________________________________________. |

Passage 1
I don't know how many good teachers there are in the world, but I feel it is deeply important for a student who is in trouble to meet a good teacher.
I had a maths teacher who hates to see struggling maths students. He always ridicules the slow students when he gets a chance. For example, the teacher looks down upon a student due to her failure in maths. It's not that this student is stupid but rather she has no interest in maths. The maths teacher always gives the girl the cold shoulder and says this girl is the stupidest student he has ever seen. One time this student got the lowest score on a maths exam, the teacher made fun of her and then students guessed who had the worst score. When that student had some questions to ask the teacher, he was impatient with her. Finally, the girl said to me that paradise is very far from her. Everyday she feels Eden, but there is no way to reach it. She feels that she is a tiny lantern which is placed into the water and will slowly drift out to sea until it can't be seen. What a lonely vision that is!
All students have different abilities because each of them is unique. No one can foretell his future. The teacher should learn how to treat the slower students properly, how to encourage them and not to hurt their feelings. Please leave a bit of love for these special students.
"It is not how much we do but how much love we put in the doing. It is not how much we give, but how much love we put in the giving," said Mother Terasa. After all, love can creates power.
| 66. | In this article, the writer thinks that when a student is in trouble, it is very important that the student should do his best to turn to some teachers. |
| 67. | The underlined word "ridicule" in the second paragraph means laugh at. |
| 68. | The girl fails in every maths exam because she is tired of the maths teacher. |
| 69. | What the girl tells the writer shows the girl is mentally suffering. |
| 70. | The writer attacks the maths teacher strongly, but he asks all people to collect money to support the special students. |
