Part III Reading Comprehension
Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 4 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read this materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.
Task 1
When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.
For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn't sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can't make things work out right, he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it.
If you look at children, you'll see great difference between what we call "bright" children and "not-bright" children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life - he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But, the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.
36. According to this passage, intelligence is __________.
A. the ability to study well
B. the ability to do well in school
C. the ability to deal with life
D. the ability to get high scores on some tests
37. In a new situation, an intelligent person__________.
A. knows more about what might happen to him
B. is sure of the result he will get
C. concentrates on what to do about the situation
D. cares more about himself
38. If an intelligent person failed, he would__________.
A. try not to feel ashamed
B. learn from his experiences
C. try to regret as much as possible
D. make sure what result he would get
39. Bright children and not-bright children__________.
A. are two different types of children
B. are different mainly in their degree of cleverness
C. have difference only in their way of thinking
D. have different knowledge about the world
40. The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about __________.
A. how to determine what intelligence is
B. how education should be found
C. how to solve practical problems
D. how an unintelligent person should be taught
Task 2
Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been demonstrated that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles. When a fragrant flavor was added to the vitamin-enriched fluid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it ,even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water. In time, however ,they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were.
In a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before them. They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced diet.
So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what's best for them. Apparently, there is a kind of "body wisdom," which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habits. Some people eat fox, dog and blackbirds ,while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them..
41. In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rat's drinking water to_________.
A.encourage rats to drink vitamin-enriched water
B. find out rats preference in flavor
C. test whether rats know which drink is good for them
D.demonstrate that vitamins are tasteless
42. The expression "the habit" (para.1, sentence 4) refers to drinking water which_________.
A.has no smell
B. is tasteless
C. has vitamins
D. is flavored
43.According to the passage ,adults eating habits differ from those of babies because_________.
A.adults know better than babies what kind of food are good for their health
B.adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foods
C.adults' eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customs
D.adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns
44. The author implied in the passage that most of us_________.
A. eat a balanced diet
B.choose the food that is of nutrition
C. have the habits influenced by the surroundings
D.like to eat the food with a fragrant flavor
45. As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar in that_________.
A.both have the wisdom to choose a balanced diet
B. both prefer flavored food and drink
C.both have the same eating patterns
D.both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavors
Task 3
Complaining about faulty goods or bad service is never easy. Most people dislike making a fuss. But if something you have bought is faulty or does not do what was claimed for it , you are not asking for a favour to get it put right .It is the shopkeeper’s responsibility to take the complaint seriously and to replace or repair a faulty article or put right poor service, because he is the person with whom you have entered into an agreement. The manufacturer may have a part to play but that comes later.
Complaints should be made to a responsible person. Go back to the shop where you bought the goods, taking with you any receipt you may have. Ask to see the buyer in a large store. In a small store the assistant may also be the owner or you can complain directly. In a store ask to see the manager. If you telephone, ask the name of the person who handles your enquiry, otherwise you may never find out who dealt with the complaint later.
Even the bravest person finds it difficult to stand up in group of people to complain, so if you do not want to do it in person, write a letter,. Stick to the facts and keep a copy of what you write. At this stage you should give any receipt numbers, but you should not need to give receipts or other papers to prove you bought the article. If you are not satisfied with the answer you get, or if you do not get a reply, write to the managing director of the firm, shop, or organization. Be sure to keep copies of your own letters and any you receive.
46.The shopping makes a complaint because .
A) he dislikes causing a fuss
B) it doesn’t do what is claimed for it
C) the article bought is good
D) he was at fault in buying the article
47.What agreement does the shopkeeper NOT make with the customer?
A) To take his complaint seriously.
B) To sell him the goods
C) To replace or repair a faulty article.
D) To put right poor service
48.When complaining in person, you should
A) get a receipt for what you buy
B) speak to someone in authority
C) talk directly to the assistant
D) ask to see the buyer
49.When complaining on the telephone
A) you should speak directly to the owner
B) you must ask for the manager
C) you may never find out who dealt with the matter

Dear father and mother:
Another semester has passed before I know it and the summer vacation will begin. How I miss you and wish to see you! But I have to say sorry to you as I cannot go back at once. Anyway, I am sure that after you know the reasons, you will understand and support me.
I’ve signed up for the social practice in the summer vacation. The reasons for my doing this are, Firstly, through social practice, I can make contact with the society and get better understanding of it. Secondly, I can use the knowledge and skills I have mastered to serve the society and be prepared for my future job. Thirdly, I am not too young now. I’ll make money by myself and be independent and help to reduce your heavy burden.
To sum up, I can get a lot through social practice. I assure you that as soon as I finish the social practice. I’ll go home to see you.
