Grammar and Vocabulary: 20% Section A Grammar: 10% Two men, both seriously ill, were hospitalized in the same room. One man’s bed was next to the room’s only window. The other had to spend all his time lying on his bed. Every afternoon the man in the bed by the window would sit up, pass the time 25 (describe) to his roommate all the things he could see outside the window. The man in the other bed began to enjoy the one-hour periods 26 his world would be enriched by all the color of the world outside. 　　Outside the window 27 (be) ducks and swans playing on the water while children were sailing their model boats. As the man by the window described all this in beautiful detail, the man on the other side of the room 28 close his eyes and imagine the vivid scene. 　　Days and weeks passed. One morning, the nurse arrived 29__ (bring)water for their baths only to find the man by the window had died peacefully in his sleep. Everyone was saddened. 　　As soon as it seemed appropriate, the other man asked 30 he could be moved next to the window. The nurse was happy to make the change, and after 31 (make) sure he was fortable, she left him alone. Slowly, painfully, he propped himself up(撑着坐起)to take his first look at the real world outside. 　　To the man’s great surprise, there was 32 but a blank wall outside! The man asked the nurse 33 could have driven his dead roommate to describe such wonderful things outside this window. The nurse responded that the man was blind and could not even see the wall.

During the first few weeks after birth，near vision is better 35 than their far vision. They focus on objects held 8 to 15 inches in front of them. At three months of age, infants show 36 for the facial expression of adults. These changes in the infant's attention to facial parts indicate that children give thought to certain areas of the face that 37 them. From birth, infants will turn their heads toward a source or direction of sound or loud noise. The reaction to a sudden loud noise is usually crying. Infants gradually learn to look around to 38 sources of sounds, such as a doorbell. A newborn baby can distinguish between the mother's and father's voices and the voice of a stranger by three weeks old. To 39 their world, young children use their senses in an attempt to learn about the world. Sensory-Perceptual development is the information that is collected through the senses, the ideas that are formed about an object or relationship as a result of what the child learns through the senses. When experiences are 40 , they form a set of perceptions. For example, a child will see a black dog with four legs and a tail and later see a black cat with four legs and a tail and call it a dog. The child will continue 41 the cat as a dog until the child is given additional information and feedback to help him learn the difference between a dog and a cat. Cognitive（认知）development refers to the ways children reason, develop language, solve problems, and gain knowledge. As children gain 42 of the world, their cognitive development can be observed in the ways they play, use language, interact with others, and 43 objects and materials. As children grow and interact with their world, they go through various stages of development. Although the stages are not precisely tied to a particular age, there are 44 that describe children at different ages. III. Cloze Test 15% Crying is hardly an activity encouraged by society. Tears, because of ___45___, anger, or joy, typically make Americans feel unfortable and embarrassed. The shedder of tears(流泪者) is likely to apologize, even when a destructive tragedy was the ____46____. The observer of tears is likely to do everything possible to put an end to the _____47______ expression. But judging from recent studies of crying behavior, links between illness and crying and the chemical position of tears, both those responses to tears are often ______48_____ and may even have the opposite effect. Humans are the only animals definitely known to shed emotional tears. Since evolution has given rise to few, if any, purposeless physiological responses, it is logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that enhance _____49______. Although some observers have suggested that crying is a way to get assistance from others (as a crying baby might from its mother), the shedding of tears is hardly ____50_____to get help. Vocal cries would have been quite enough, more likely than tears to gain attention. So, it appears, there must be something____51____ about tears themselves. Indeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a(n) ____52___role in alleviating(减轻) stress. University of Minnesota researchers who are studying the chemical position of tears have recently ___53_____two important chemicals from emotional tears. Both chemicals are found only in tears that are shed in response to ____54____. Tears shed because of exposure to cutting onion would contain no such ____55_____. Researchers at several other institutions are investigating the _____56_____of tears as a means of diagnosing(诊断) human ills and monitoring drugs.

Reading prehension: 16% A Tsai Chin-chung is one of Taiwan's most famous cartoonists, and his cartoons are enjoyed by people in many different countries in Asia. His books of cartoons have now bee best sellers in Singapore, Malaysia, and even Japan. As soon as he could hold a pencil or a brush, Tsai Chin-hung lived only for drawing. Every day he practiced drawing people and things around him as well as characters and scenes from his favorite stories. When he was only 15 years old, he left home to work for a publisher in Taipei. At first he was only 15 years old and he worked hard to draw pictures for books. So two years later he decided to leave his job as an artist who draws pictures for books and to work on drawing cartoon series. He made up his mind to succeed as a cartoonist even if it meant “living on instant noodles” in order to make himself famous. Now nearly 50 years old, Tsai Chin-chung has achieved something unusual for a modern cartoonist. He has bee extraordinarily successful at changing Chinese literature and philosophy into humorous ic stories. In this way, he had made the Chinese classics known to thousands of people. In recognition of his great achievement, several years ago Tsai Chin-chung was given a prize as one of the 10 Outstanding Young people of Taiwan. Since then, he has won many prizes and his cartoons have bee popular in countries and areas throughout Asia, America and Europe. So far, he has published more than 20 ic books. Ten of these are about ancient Chinese philosophers, and the remainder are based on Chinese historical and literary classics. Many of Tsai Chin-chung's books of cartoons and ics have now been published in English in countries and areas like Singapore. His books have also been translated into several other languages, including Japanese, Korean and Tsai. Even publishers in countries like France and Indonesia have recently signed agreements for permission to publish his cartoon series. 60. Tsai Chin chung left his job because he_____________ . A. preferred drawing cartoons B. wanted to go back to school C. enjoyed drawing pictures for books D. decided to learn how to cool 61. Tsai Chin-chung first became interested in drawing when he_______ . A. left school B. was a very small child C. was fifteen D. started to be a cartoonist 62. Half of the books he has published are about_____________. A. Chinese and foreign ic books B. countries throughout Asia, America and Europe C. learning English and other foreign languages D. Chinese history and literature 63. As a result of his great achievements, Tsai Chin-chung ____________. A. traveled widely in Asia Europe B. went to live in Singapore C. won an important prize in Taiwan D. made a lot of money B Under normal conditions the act of munication requires the presence of at least two persons: one who sends and one who receives the munication. In order to municate thoughts and feelings, there must be a conventional system of signs of symbols which mean the same to the sender and the receiver. The means of sending munications are too numerous and varied for systematic classification, therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving munication. Reception of munication is achieved by our senses. Sight, heating, and touch play the most important roles. Smell and taste play very limited roles, for they cannot receive intellectual expression from fully developed systems of signs and symbols. Examples of visual munication are gesture and mimicry (模仿). Although both frequently acpany speech, there are systems that rely solely on sight, such as those used by deaf and dumb persons. Another means of munication visually is by signals of fire, smoke, flags and flashing lights. Feelings may be simply municated by touch, such as by handshaking or backslapping, although a highly developed system of hand-striking has enabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to municate intelligently. Whistling to someone, applauding in a theater, and other forms of munication by sound rely upon the ear as a receiver. The most fully developed form of auditory munication is, of course, the spoken language. The means of munication mentioned so far have two features in mon: they last only a short time and the persons involved must be relatively close to each other. Therefore, all are restricted in time and space. 64.The author explains he will deal with reception of munication first because ______ A. munication actually takes place when the message is received B. there are more means of receiving than of sending munication C. reception of munications involves use of the senses D. it is difficult to organize by type the means of sending munication 65. Persons who cannot see, hear, or speak are able to municate through a system of _____. A. gesturing B. handshaking C. backslapping D. hand-striking 66. The author specifically mentions that speech is _______. A. often used when municating by touch B. necessary for satisfactory munication by gesture C. the only highly developed system of munication D. the most developed form of munication based on hearing 67. Which of the following statements about munication by touch is true? A. Touch is less important than taste as a means of munication. B. There is no well-developed system of munication based on touch. C. It is possible to municate intelligently by touch alone. D. Touch must acpany visual munication. V. Summary Writing: 10% Directions: Read the following passage and write a summary about the story. In not more than 80 words (including the given words) describe what happened after the curtain went up on the final act of the play. Use your own words as far as possible. Do not include anything that is not in the last paragraph. A famous actor in a highly successful play was once cast in the role of an aristocrat （贵族）who had been imprisoned in the Bastille for twenty years. In the last act, a gaoler (监狱长) would always e onto the stage with a letter which he would hand to the prisoner. Even though the noble was expected to read the letter at each performance, he always insisted that it should be written out in full. One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke on his colleague to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed to learn the contents of the letter by heart. The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. Just then, the gaoler appeared with the precious letter in his hands. He entered the cell and presented the letter to the aristocrat. But the copy he gave him had not been written out in full as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper. The gaoler looked on eagerly, anxious to see if his fellow actor had at last learnt his lines. The noble stared at the blank sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then, squinting(眯着) his eyes, he said:” The light is dim. Read the letter to me.” And he promptly handed the sheet of paper to the gaoler. Finding that he could not remember a word of the letter, either, the gaoler replied: ‘the light is indeed dim, sir. I must get my glasses.”With this, he hurried off the stage. Much to the aristocrat’s amusement, the gaoler returned a few moments later with a pair of glasses and the usual copy of the letter which he proceeded to read to the prisoner. VI.
