Carl Walter was my piano teacher. During one of my lessons he asked how much practicing I was doing. I said three or four hours a day. 
“Do you practice in long stretches, an hour   16  ?” “I try to.” 
“Well, don‟t,” he said loudly. “When you grow up,   17   won‟t come in long 
stretches. Practice in minutes, whenever you can find them five or ten before school, 
after lunch,  18   household tasks.   19   the practice through the day, and 
piano-playing will become a part of your life.”  
When I was teaching at Columbia, I wanted to   20  , but class periods, 
theme-reading, and committee meetings filled my days and evenings. For two years I got practically nothing down on paper, and my   21   was that I had no time. Then I 
remembered what Carl Walter had said. During the next   22   I conducted an 
experiment. Whenever I had five minutes unoccupied, I sat down and wrote a hundredwords or so. To my   23  , at the end of the week I had a rather large manuscript ready for revision, later on I wrote novels by the same piecemeal method.  24   my teaching schedule had become heavier than ever, in every day there were idle moments which 
could be caught and put to use. I   25  took up piano-playing again, finding that the 
small   26   of the day provided sufficient time for both writing and piano practice. 
There is an important   27   in this time — you must get into your work quickly. 
If youhave but five minutes for writing, you can‟t afford to waste four   28   your 
pencil. You must make your mental preparations   29  , and concentrate on your task 
almost instantly when the time comes. Fortunately, rapid   30   is easier than most of 
us realize. 
I   31   I have never learnt how to let go easily at the end of the five or ten 
minutes. But  32   can be expected to supply interruptions. Carl Walter has had a 
tremendous   33   on my life.   34   him I owe the discovery that even very short 
periods of time   35   all useful hours I need. 
16. A. at no time  B. at a time  C. at one time  D. in no time 
17. A. time  B. life  C. work  D. success 
18. A. beyond  B. among  C. beneath  D. between 
19. A. Separate  B. Spread  C. Organize  D. Arrange 
20. A. play B. rest  C. write  D. read 
21. A. excuse  B. reason  C. cause  D. factor 
22. A. time  B. morning  C. week  D. day 
23. A. satisfaction  B. disappointment  C. depression  D. astonishment 
24. A. Though  B. Because  C. Whether  D. Unless 
25. A. often  B. even  C. ever  D. always 
26. A. quantities  B. pieces  C. intervals  D. ranges
27. A. period  B. link  C. stage D. trick 
28. A. chewing  B. sharpening  C. repairing  D. using 
29. A. in mind  B. in advance  C. without delay  D. by chance

Holidaymakers who are bored with baking beaches and overheated hotel rooms 
head for a big igloo. Swedish businessman Nile Bergqvist is delighted with his new 
hotel, the world's first igloo hotel. Built in a small town in Lapland, it has been 
attracting lots of visitors, but soon the fun will be over. 
In two weeks'time Bergqvist's ice creationwill be nothing more than a pool of 
water. "We don't see it as a big problem," he says. "We just look forward to replacing 
it." 
Bergqvist built his first igloo in 1991 for an art exhibition. It was so successful that he designed the present one, which measures roughly 200 square meters. Six workmen spent more than eight weeks piling 1,000 tons of snow onto a wooden base; 
when the snow froze, the base was removed. "The only wooden thing we have left in 
the igloo is the front door," he says. 
After their stay, all visitors receive a survival certificate recording their success. With no windows, nowhere to hang clothes and temperatures below 0℃, it may seem more like a survival test than a relaxinghotel break. "It's great fun," Bergqvist explains, "as well as a good start in survival training." 
The popularity of the igloo is beyond doubt: it is now attracting tourists from all over the world. At least 800 people have stayed at the igloo this season even though 
there are only 10 rooms. "You can get a lot of people in," explains Bergqvist. "The 
beds are three meters wide by two meters long, and can fit at least four at one time." 
36. Bergqvist designed and built the world's first igloo hotel because ______ 
A. he believed people would enjoy trying something new 
B. he wanted to make a name for the small town 
C. an art exhibition was about to open 
D. more hotel rooms were needed 
37. When the writer says "the fun will be over," he refers to the fact that ______ 
A. hotel guests will be frightened at the thought of the hard test 
B. Bergqvist's hotel will soon become a pool of water 
C. holidaymakers will soon get tired of the big igloo 
D. a bigger igloo will replace the present one 
38. According to the text, the first thing to do in building an igloo is ______
 A. to gather a pool of water  B. to prepare a wooden base 
C. to cover the ground with ice  D. to pile a large amount of snow  
39. When guests leave the igloo hotel they will receive a paper stating that _____ 
A. they have visited Lapland 
B. they have had an ice-snow holiday 
C. they have had great fun sleeping on ice 
D. they have had a taste of adventure  
40. Which of the four pictures below is the closest to the igloo hotel as described in 
the text?

C．
The discovery that language can be a barrier (障碍) to communication is quickly made by all who travel, study, govern or sell. Whether the activity is tourism, research, government, policing or business, the lack of a common language can severely delay progress or can stop it altogether.
Although communication problems of this kind must happen thousands of times each day, very few become public knowledge. Publicity comes only when a failure to communicate has major results, such as strikes, lost orders, legal problems or deadly accidents--even, at times, war. One reported example of communication failure took place in 1970, when several Americans ate a species of poisonous mushroom. No remedy was known, and two of the people died within days. A radio report of the case was heard by a chemist who knew of a treatment that had been successfully used in 1959 and published in 1963. Why had the American doctors not heard of it seven years later? Possibly because the report of the treatment had been published only in journals written in European languages other than English.
　　Several comparable cases have been reported. But isolated (孤立的) examples do not give an impression of the size of the problem--something that can come only from studies of the use or avoidance of foreign-language materials and contacts in different communicative situations. In the English-speaking scientific world, for example, surveys of books and documents consulted in libraries and other information agencies have shown that very little foreign-language material is ever consulted. Library requests in the field of science and technology showed that only 13 percent were for foreign language journals.
The language barrier presents itself entirely to firms who wish to market their products in other countries. British industry, in particular, has in recent decades often been criticized for its assumption (设想) that foreign buyers will be happy to communicate in English, and that awareness of other languages is not therefore a matter to be considered first. In the 1960s, over two-thirds o
