Nowhere did we find a place where we could have landed: where the jungle did not actually spread right down into the river , banks of soft mud prevented us going ashore . In any case , what would we have sailed by landing ? The country was full of snakes and other dangerous creatures , and the jungle so thick that one would be able to move forward only slowly , cutting ones way with knives the whole way . So we stayed in the boat , hoping that when we reached the sea , a friendly fisherman would pick us up and take us to civilization .We lived on fish , caught with a home-made net of string (we had no hooks ), and fruits and nuts we could pick up out of the water . As we had no fire , we had to eat everything , including the fish ,raw . I had never tasted raw fish before , and I must say I did not much enjoy the experience: perhaps sea fish , which do not live in the mud , are less tasteless . After eating my raw fish , I lay back and dreamed of such things as fried chicken and rice ,and ice-cream . In the never-ending damp heat of the jungle , ice-cream was a particularly frequent dream .As for water , there was a choice ; we could drink the muddy river water , or die of thirst . We drank the water . Men who have just escaped what had appeared to be certain death lose all worries about such small things as diseases caused by dirty water . In fact , none of us suffered from any illness as a result .One day we passed another village , but fortunately nobody saw us . We did not wish to risk being taken prisoners a second time : we might not be so lucky to escape in a stolen boat again .1What they could see in the boat was only .Ahigh walls Bvillages from time to time Cvast land Dheavy woods 2They couldnt land because .Athe mud on the shore was too soft Bthe forest was too thick to let them go through Cthey could not find the mark on the map Dthey could not find anyone 3The passage implies（暗示）that the forest was .Arich of fruits and fish to be served as food Bnot very thick as they could advance slowly by cutting the branches Cfull of various dangerous beings Dfull of ancient tress 4The best title for this passage might be .AEscape BExploration of A River CHow to Live on A Boat DA New Experience BAmy Tan , the American-born daughter of Chinese immigrants , received the Commonwealth Club Gold Award in 1989 for her first work of fiction , the best selling Joy Luck Club . The sixteen stories that make up the work alternate（交替）the tales of four Chinese immigrant mothers and their Americanized daughters , in an exploration of the generational and cultural tensions （紧张关系）experienced by many first-generation daughters of immigrants . Tans parents , like many immigrants , had high expectations for their children and often set puzzling standards , expecting Amy and her two brothers to think like Chinese but to speak perfect English , be excellent at school work , and take advantage of every situation that might lead to success . Tan , however , rebelled （反叛）against her parents expectations and devoted herself to being thoroughly American and dreaming of being a fiction writer .Tan got a bachelors degree in English and linguistics（语言学）and a masters degree in linguistics and established herself as a highly successful business writer . Tan , however , was not satisfied in spite of her material success . Turning to her life long dream , she wrote her first short story , “ Endgame,” and then a second , “Waiting between the trees .” In 1987 Tan visited her half-sisters in China with her mother , a trip that proved to be a turning point in her life and career . Tan felt a sense of completeness , a tie with the country and its culture that she had never expected . Returning from China , Tan was surprised to learn that on the strength of her short stories she had received an advance from a publisher . Tan closed her business and wrote the remaining stories for the Joy Luck Club . It was a great success , well received by the public and appearing on the New York Times bestseller list . It has been translated into seventeen languages , including Chinese , and was made into a movie in 1993 .5What is the writers main purpose in this passage ?ATo analyze（分析）Amy Tans works BTo support Amy Tans decision to become a fiction writer CTo present Amy Tans personal information DTo criticize Amy Tans rebellion against her parents 6According to the passage , Amy Tans visit to China .Awas disappointing Bhad a great pushing effect on her Cwas not surprising in the least Dwas a trip she had always dreamed of taking 7The underlined words “the work” in paragraph 1 refer to .Astories Bwriting CCommonwealth Club Gold Award DJoy Luck Club 8It can be concluded from this passage that .Aparents dont know how to educate their children BTan did not use personal experience in her writing CTan made the right decision when she closed her business DTan thinks and lives more in a American way than in Chinese .CFIRE INSTRUCTIONSTHE PERSON DISCOVERING A FIRE WILL :1)OPERATE THE NEAREST FIRE ALARM .(This will cause the Alarm Bells to ring , and also send a signal to the telephone switchboard operator who will immediately call the Fire Brigade ).2)ATTACK THE TIRE WITH THE AVAILABLE(可得到的)EQUIPMENT, IF IT IS SAFE TO DO SO .FIRE ALARMBELLSThe Fire Alarm Bells will ring either in the area of A Block (working shops and Administration（行政的）Offices ) or in the area of B Block (Teaching ) and C Block (Sports Hall). Those in the area where the Alarm Bells are ringing should take action as indicated （指示）below . Others should continue with their work .ON HEARING YOUR FIRE ALARM :1. Those in class : will go to the Assembly（集合）Area under instructions given by the teacher.2. Those elsewhere : will go to the Assemble Area by the most sensible route , and stay near the Head of their department .ASSEMBLY AREA :The Assembly Area is the playing field which is south of the Sports Hall .

People who have such an addiction are compulsive （难以抑制的）; i . e. , they have a very powerful psychological need that they feel they must satisfy . According to psychologists , many people are compulsive spenders : they feel that they must spend money . This compulsion , like most others , is irrationalimpossible to explain reasonably . For compulsive spenders who buy on credit , charge accounts （按月付款）are even more exciting than money . In other words , compulsive spenders feel that with credit , they can do anything . Their pleasure in spending enormous amounts is actually greater than the pleasure that they get from the things they buy .There is even a special psychology of bargain hunting . To save money , of course , most people look for sales , low prices , and discounts . Compulsive bargain hunters , however , often buy things that they dont need just because they are cheap . They want to believe that they are helping their budgets ，（预算）, but they feel that they are winning . Most people, experts claim , have two reasons for their behavior : a good reason for the things that they do and the real reason .It is not only scientists , of course , who understand the psychology of spending habits , but also business-people . Stores , companies and advertisers use psychology to increase business: they consider peoples need for love , power , or influence , their basic values , their beliefs and opinions , and so on in their advertising and sales methods .Psychologists often use a method called “behavior therapy” to help individuals solve their personality problems . In the same way , they can help people who feel that they have problems with money .13According to psychologists , a compulsive spender is one who spends large amounts of money .Aand takes great pleasure from what he or she buys Bin order to satisfy his or her basic needs in life Cjust to meet his or her strong psychological need Dentirely with an irrational eagerness 14According to the writer , compulsive bargain hunters are often in search of the lowest possible prices .Abecause they want to save money to help their budgets Bbecause they can openly boast of their victory over others in getting things for less money Cand will not have money problems if they can keep to their budget Dbut they seldom admit they feel satisfied if they cant get things for less money than others 15The passage is mainly talking about .Athe psychology of money-spending habits Bthe purchasing habits of compulsive spenders Ca special psychology of bargain hunting Dthe use of the psychology of spending habits in business 16From the passage we may safely conclude that compulsive spenders or compulsive bargain hunters _.Aare really unreasonable Bneed special treatmentCcant be cured Dcan never get any help to solve their problems with moneyEThe most noticeable trend among todays media companies is vertical integration(融合), an attempt to control several related aspects of the media business at once, each part helping the other. Besides publishing magazines and books, Time Warner, for example, owns Home Box Office (HBO), Warner movie studios, various cable TV systems throughout the United States and CNN as well. The Japanese company Matsushita own MCA Records and Universal Studios and manufactures broadcast production equipment.To describe the financial status of todays media is also to talk about acquisitions(获得). The media are buying and selling each other in unprecedented(史无前例的) numbers and forming media groups to position themselves in the market place to maintain and increase their profits. In 1986, the first time a broadcast network had been sold, two networks were sold that year, ABC and NBC.Media acquisitions have increased sharply since 1980 for two reasons. The first is that most big corporations today are publicly traded companies, which means that their stock is traded on one of the nations stock exchanges. This makes acquisitions relatively easy.A media company that wants to buy a publicly owned company can buy that companys stock when the stock becomes available. The open availability of stock in these companies means that anybody with enough money can invest in the American media industries, which is exactly how Rupert Murdoch joined the media business.The second reason for the increase in media alliances is that beginning in 1980, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) gradually removed the regulations from the broadcast media. Before 1980, for example, the FCC allowed one company to own only five TV stations, five AM radio stations, and five FM radio stations; companies also were required to hold onto a station for three years before the station could be sold. The post-1980 FCC got rid of the three-year rule and raised the number of broadcast holdings allowed for one owner. This trend of media acquisitions is continuing throughout the 1990s, as changing technology expands the market for media products.The issue of media ownership is important. If only a few corporations direct the media industries in this country, the outlets for differing political viewpoints and creative ideas could be limited.17Which of the following is true of the media?AThey used to sell and buy each other in great numbers.BThey are trading each other in great numbers today.CThey used to be controlled by two networks ABC and NBC.DThey have stopped the trend of acquisitions in the 1990s.18According to the passage, what makes acquisitions easier?AThe changing technology employed by the media.BThe medias increasing profits in the marketplace.CThe ever tougher regulations of the FCC on the media since 1980.DThe availability of the medias stocks on stock exchanges.19What is the FCCs new policy regarding media alliances ( )?AIt allows companies to sell their stocks publicly.BIt doesnt allow companies to sell their stock publicly.CIt
