第二部分：阅读理解 （共20小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
Passage 1
There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington, D.C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Luvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.
FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.
You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art produced electronically (通过电子手段) by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.
Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he starts the museum because computer artistes had no place to show their work.
A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records or floppy discs (软盘), to others to see on their computers. He could also print his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needs an expensive laser（激光）printer.
Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Shostak said the FIU museum would make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.
11. The main purpose of this passage is to give information about_____________.
A. famous museums throughout the world
B. an electronic art museum in Miami, U.S.A.
C. art exhibitions in Florida International University
D. latest development of computer art
12. To see the art in FIU museum, your special needs include_____________.
A. floppy discs
B. a computer and a printer
C. pictures and drawings on paper
D. a computer connected to the museum by a telephone line
13. What are stored in this museum?
A. Paintings drawn by means of the computer.
B. Different styles of paintings.
C. Old paintings.
D. Drawings done by art students of FIU.
14. The museum was started when___________.
A. Robert Shostak wanted to do something for computer scientists
B. Robert Shostak wanted to help computer artists
C. art students needed better places to show their works
D. computer scientists wanted to do something about art
15. The word “audience” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.
A. art students B. computer owners
C. exhibits in the museum D. those who will enjoy art
Passage 2
“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.
“Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.
When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer.
We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.
But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.
16. We know that the word “cool” has had ________.
A. only one meaning B. no meanings
C. many different meanings D. the same meaning
17. In the passage, the word “express” means “________”.
A. see B. show C. know D. feel
18. If you are _______ something, you may say, “It’s cool.”
A. interested in B. angry about
C. afraid of D. unhappy with
19. The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.
A. pleased with B. strange to
C. worried about D. careful with
20. In the passage, the writer suggests（暗示）that the word “cool”________.
A. cannot be replaced by other words
B. usually means something interesting
C. can make your life colourful
D. shouldn’t be overused
Passage 3
For any Englishman, there can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest dramatist (剧作家). Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.
Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.
There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare’s day.
21. English people ____________.
A. have never discussed who is the world’s greatest dramatist
B. never discuss any issue concerning the world’s greatest dramatist
C. are sure who is the world’s greatest dramatist
D. do not care who is the world’s greatest poet and dramatist
22. Every Englishman knows ______________.
A. more or less about Shakespeare
B. Shakespeare, but only slightly
C. all Shakespeare’s writings
D. only the name of the greatest English writer
23. Which of the following is true?
A. We use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings.
B. Shakespeare’s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.
C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origins of the words they use.
D. All the words people use are taken from the writings of Shakespeare.
24. What does the word “proverb” mean?
A. Familiar sayings. B. Shakespeare’s plays.
C. Complaints. D. Actors and actresses.
25. Why is it worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English?
A. English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare’s time.
B. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of the English language.
C. English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare’s time.
D. Beginners may have difficulty learning some aspects of English usage.

Part III Reading Comprehension (30%)
Directions: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.
Passage 1.
When your parents advise you to "get an education" in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.
Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.
Get a college degree, if possible. With a B.A., you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a master's degree, make sure it is an M.B.A, and is famous law of diminishing returns begins to take effect.
Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24000, while the full professors managed to earn just $23030. A Ph.D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph.D.s unemloyed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.
If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or-worst of all-in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands. Thousands of Ph.D.s are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the janitor earns. You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.
51. According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who _____.
A)will not be a disgrace to society B)will become loyal citizens
C)can take care of themselves D)can meet the nation's demands as a source of manpower
52. Many Ph.D.s are out of job because _____.
A)they are improperly educated B)they are of little commercial value to their society
C)there are fewer jobs in high schools D)they prefer easier jobs that make more money
53. The nation is only interested in people _____.
A)with diplomas B)who specialize in physics and chemistry
C)who are valuable to the gross national product D)both A and C
54. Which of the following is not true?
A)Bernard Shaw didn't finish high schools, nor did Edison.
B)One must think carefully before pursuing a master degree.
C)The higher your education level, the more money you will earn.
D)If you are too well-educated, you'll be overeducated for society's demands.
55. The writer sees education as _____.
A)a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a country's demands for technical workers
B)a way to broaden one's horizons
C)more important than finding a job
D)an opportunity that everyone should have
