Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
The horse came into existence before man on earth. Although the earliest remains7 of primitive8 horses have been found on the North American continent, many scientists believe this small species traveled over a land mass. In the Bering Sea to found the beginnings of the modern horse in Asia. It became extinct（绝种的）in America. Other scientists believe that the horse may have originated in Asia. In any event the animal soon spread into China, Europe, and the Middle East. The first modern horses to be introduced into the American continent came with the early Spanish explorers. Horses were bred into many types. The heavy horses developed in the low countries of Europe and were used for work and by the medieval knights10 （中世纪骑士）to ride. The oldest breed of horses is said to be the Arabian. The only true wild horses left in 20th century are found in Mongolia. Horses are said to rate in intelligence after the ape, elephant, the dog.

Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
With tremendous force a great mass of solid rock suddenly moves deep inside the earth. Shock waves travel upward, and the surface of the earth begins to tremble. If the trembling is very strong, trees sway and fall, houses collapse12, bridges twist and slide into rivers. In cities, fires start as gas lines break. With a loud roar, the ground splits open. Earthquake!
Experts cannot tell when earthquakes will occur. But they can tell us why they happen. In the center of the earth a huge, hot mass moves constantly, like rushing water. Vast areas of solid rock, called plates （板岩）, rest on TOP of this mass. Sometimes two plates move and strain against each other. When they finally break, the earths surface moves, and an earthquake begins. Some quakes have other causes.
Most of the worlds earthquakes happen around or in the Pacific Ocean. Called the ring of fire by scientists, this area suffers from about twenty powerful earthquakes each year. But there are others even too small to be felt. They occur a million times a year. However, they take place under the ocean or away from people. Therefore, there is no damage.
Scientists measure the strength of earthquakes with sensitive machines called seismographs （地震仪）. These instruments can record shock waves from earthquakes in any part of the world. Seismographs show us that some earthquakes can give off as much energy as 200 million tons of TNT. That is 10,000 times stronger than an atomic bomb!
Powerful earthquakes can sometimes take an enormous number of human lives. The worst earthquake on record took place in China in 1556. At that time 830,000 people died. In 1737, 300,000 were killed during an earthquake in India. In modern times, China was hit again with the worlds second worst quake in 1976. It left 650,000 dead.
Many cities are taking steps to prevent loss of life in earthquakes. Buildings are being made quakeproof. Rescue teams practice saving victims. Partly because of such steps, the 1989 San Francisco quake took only sixty lives.

A) a great mass of solid rock suddenly moves deep inside the earth

B) more sensitive machines are used to measure the strength of earthquakes
C) people can save themselves when earthquake happens
D) earthquakes do less damage to human beings because many cities are taking steps to prevent loss of life in earthquakes
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
A weather map is an important tool for geographers13. A succession of three or four maps presents a continuous picture of weather changes. Weather forecasters are able to determine the speed of air masses and fronts; to determine whether an inpidual pressure area is deepening or becoming shallow and whether a front is increasing or decreasing in intensity14. They are also able to determine whether an air mass is retaining its original characteristics or taking on those of the surface over which it is moving. Thus, a most significant function of the map is to reveal a synoptic picture of conditions in the atmosphere at a given time.
All students of geography should be able to interpret a weather map accurately15. Weather maps contain an enormous amount of information about weather conditions existing at the time of observation over a large geographical16 area. They reveal in a few minutes what otherwise would take hours to describe. The United States Weather Bureau issues information about approaching storms, floods, frosts, drougths, and all climatic conditions in general. Twice a month it issues a 30-day outlook which is a rough guide to weather conditions likely to occur over broad areas of the United States. These 30-day outlooks are based upon an analysis of the upper air levels which often set the stage for the development of air masses, fronts, and storms.
Considerable effort is being exerted today to achieve more accurate weather predictions. With the use of electronic instruments and earth satellites, enormous gains have taken place recently in identifying and tracking storms over regions which have but few meteorological stations. Extensive experiments are also in progress for weather modification17 studies.
31. One characteristic of weather maps not mentioned by the author in this passage is.
A) storms B) thermal18 changes C) frost D) wind speed
32. The thirty-day forecast is determined19 by examining.
A) daily weather maps
B) upper air levels
C) satellite reports
D) changing fronts
33. The observation of weather conditions by satellites is advantageous20 because it .
A) is modern
B) enables man to alter the weather
C) makes weather prediction easier
D) gives the scientist information not otherwise readily obtained
34. A weather map is synoptic because it.
A) summarizes a great deal of information
B) appears daily
C) shows changing fronts
D) is prepared by the Weather Bureau
35. At the present time, experiments are being conducted in.
A) controlling weather
B) satellites
C) 30-day outlooks
D) controlling storms
Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
Large companies need a way to reach the savings21 of the public at large. The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect（前景）of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling22 to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects. So companies turn to the public, inviting23 people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future profits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the savings of inpiduals both at home and overseas.
When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker24 （证券经纪人）to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.
Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone. The government, local authorities, and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they too, come to the Stock Exchange.
There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another this new money must come from the savings of the country. The Stock Exchange exists to provide a channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance.
36. Almost all companies involved in new production and development must.
A) rely on their own financial resources
B) persuade the banks to provide long-term finance
C) borrow large sums of money from friends and people they know
D) depend on the population as a whole for finance
37. The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projects is.
A) repaid to its original owners as soon as possible
B) raised by the selling of shares in the companies
C) invested in different companies on the Stock Exchange
D) exchanged for part ownership in the Stock Exchange
38. When the savers want their money back they.
A) look for other people to borrow money from
B) transfer their money to a more successful company
C) put their shares in the company back on the market
D) ask another company to obtain their money for them
39. All the essential services on which we depend are.
A) run by the Government or our local authorities
B) in constant need of financial support
C) unable to provide for the needs of the population
D) financed wholly by rates and taxes
40. The Stock Exchange makes it possible for the Government, local authorities and nationalized industries.

If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted39 scientist, Ellsworth Huntington, concluded from other mens work and his own among people in different climates climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.
He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in summer.
Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring mans mental abilities are affected40 by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.
Fall is the next?best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking.

Some Suggestions to the President of Our University
Dear Sir:
Ive been here for two years. I am very satisfied with my university, but it does not follow that there is no room for improvement.
First, I believe a better job can be done with respect to the guidance of our study methods. Although university students have the ability to study independently, sometimes when we try to choose good books to read and appropriate TOPics for our research we still feel at a loss. We need someone to give us some advice. If you could arrange more lectures on how to learn by yourself for us, especially for the freshmen41, it will do much good to our study.
Second, more activities should be arranged to make our campus life more interesting. Im sorry to say that at present life on campus is quite boring. Everyday we have classes, read in the library, or stay in the dormitory. Life becomes a routine. We need more meaningful activities organized to cheer us up and make our study more efficient. I hope you can consider my suggestions.
Thank you.
Yours sincerely, Li Ming
