Reading Comprehension ( 2 ⅹ 10 = 20) Task One Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find five questions or unfinished statements. For each question or statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best ONE. Do you want to know something about the history of weather? Don’t look at the sky. Don’t look for old weather reports. Looking at tree rings is more important. Correct weather reports date back only one century, but some trees can provide an exact record of of the weather even further back. It is natural that a tree would grow best in a climate with plenty of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable to an unfavorable climate can be determined by reading the pattern of rings in a tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago, count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings, then it is certain that plenty of sunny and rainy weather occurred. If the rings are close together, then the climate was bad for the tree. Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of weather, but also for the history of man. In a region of New Mexico, you can find only sand ----- no trees and no people. However, many centuries ago, a large population lived there. They left suddenly. Why? A scientist studied patterns of dead tree rings there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees; trees were necessary to make fires and buildings. So, after the people destroyed the trees, they had to move. In this instance, studying tree rings helps us discover an exciting fact about the history of man. 41. How do we know the weather of a hundred years ago?C A. By looking at the sky. B. By looking for old weather reports. C. By looking at tree rings. D. By learning history. 42. How does the weather affect the growth of a tree?D A. Plenty of sunlight and rainfall will limit the growth of a tree. B. A tree grows best with little sunlight and rain. C. Some trees provide an exact record of the weather. D. The weather determines the pattern of rings in a tree trunk. 43. If the fifth ring is far from the other rings, then it means that, five years ago, __B_______ . A. the climate was good for the tree B. plenty of sunny and rainy weather occurred C. there was plenty of sunlight and rainfall D. all of the above 44. Why did a large population who once lived in a region of New Mexico suddenly leave there?A A. Because all the trees were cut down. B. Because the weather forced them to leave. C. Because the weather was determined by trees. D. Because they wanted to live in a new place. 45. What is the passage mainly about?B A. Trees are very important to human beings. B. Studying tree rings can tell us the history of weather and man. C. Weather can change the history of man. D. A tree grows best in a climate with plenty of sunlight and rainfall. Task Two Read the following passage as fast as you can and then decide whether the statements that follow are TRUE or FALSE, according to the passage. If you are learning a language, the first step is to cool down and relax your body to get your mind ready. Then, write out the vocabulary you want to learn in the next hour by putting the foreign language words down the right side of the page, and the native language translation on the left side. Next, record the material you wish to learn on your tape recorder, with light music playing in the background on a second tape recorder. The music helps to further relax the mind. Create a quick memory map of the main words you want to remember, connecting words and phrases that are related, using lines and pictures. Then, underline the important words using a colored pen. Close your eyes and try to make up a story, however simple, using the words you have learnt and picturing the scenes in your mind’s eye. When you have some spare time --- like, when waiting for somebody --- make up some flash cards to go over the meanings of these words. These cards will be very helpful in refreshing your memory. 46.
