第I卷
第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
You almost certainly know the phrase, “A dog is man’s best friend” and I can confirm(确定), from my own experience, that this is the truth. I personally can’t imagine my life without a dog. As a dog owner, a dog’s running towards you, snuggling(依偎)up to you or pleasantly barking are all really great feelings. Moreover, you have something that always listens to you and loves you. Because of these facts dogs are the best and the most beautiful creatures for me.
Dogs aren’t only pets. They can often help people. Firstly, like sheepdogs, they really help with shepherding. Secondly, like sniffer dogs(嗅探犬), they can be trained to search for hard drugs. And lastly, I want to talk about guide-dogs which are actually a great miracle for blind people. These dogs can deal with a lot of issues and problems in a blind person’s life and they are perfect mediators between healthy people and sightless ones. They ensure that handicapped people can live normal lives and this is the best thing that they can do. Their training for this role, however, is not easy. First they are sent to a normal family and then the dogs are specially trained. They have to learn perhaps 50 different tasks or disciplines. And then, when they are fully trained, they are sent to a new family where they try to make life as normal as possible for their owners.
The price of training the dogs is a very high sum. But blind people can usually get the monetary support from some sponsors or some donations from organizations which raise money especially for them. You can help too because in many supermarkets and other shops there are very often places where you can donate. And it’s not just about making a big donation; small amounts help too.
1. A perfect guide-dog must be trained_________.
A. to search for thieves B. by the blind from young
C. to learn certain skills D. to finish over 50 different tasks.
2. The underlined word in the second paragraph means_________.
A. 药品 B. 调解者 C . 治疗者 D. 冥想
3. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The cost of training a sniffer dog is very high.
B. Sheepdogs also can help with the blind man.
C. Guide-dogs are born with special abilities.
D. Guide-dogs contribute a lot to blind men.
4. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Dogs Is Man’s Best Friend B. Blind Man and Dog
C. I like My Dog Very Much D. Those Beautiful Creatures
B
There are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.
Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.
Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.
Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “ What Color is Your Parachute(降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career(职业)since it was first published in 1970.
Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.
5. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Finding a job B. College students’ part-time jobs.
C. Craigslist Web site. D. The relation between study and work.
6. By logging on the Craigslist Web site, you can_________.
A. sell your old things B. do some shopping online
C. create your own announcement board D. get useful information about 450 cities
7. “What Color is Your Parachute?” is a book which gives tips to those who want to_________
A. work on the airplane. B. buy a parachute.
C. publish a book. D. find a suitable job.
8. How many ways of finding a job are mentioned in the passage?
A. Three. B. Four. C. Five. D. Six.
C
When I paid for the bicycle repair, the repairman told me, “ No change, Professor Pan. We’re friends.”
“I’d rather pay,” I replied. “If it’s free, I can’t afford it.”
Chinese often refuse payment for professional services, insisting, “We’re friends now!” But then they show up later to ask me to tutor them in English, or get them into an American university, and I wish I’d have just paid the 30 yuan I owed them in the first place.
According to the Americans, “There’s no free lunch,” meaning that there’s a price for everything, and I’m always looking around to figure out what this means.
Many of our neighbors have given us fruit or flowers or costly teas, never asking anything in return. For years, a bicycle repairman has repeatedly refused to let me pay him. “Wait until you have something major to fix!” he insists.
Chinese generosity is a real education for Americans like me, who would rather avoid social entanglements (纠纷) and just hand over the money. But cash can’t make up for the greatest gift – friendship.
When an American saw some of my friends sitting on bamboo stools under the trees, sipping tea, he said, “They must have nothing better to do.” “Actually,” I said, “they are professors, with plenty to do. But probably you’re right in saying that, at this moment, they have nothing better to do. And neither do I.”
And I joined the group. We chatted about tea and Chinese cooking and how much my boys have grown since we arrived. One man said, “They were pocket-sized when you came here. Now they’re taller than you. How time flies.”
How life flies. And Chinese are smart enough to share what they know they cannot keep. They freely give of their time, never too busy to help a friend. And they are teaching me, slowly, to both give and receive. So the next time someone says, “No charge. We’re friends.” I will thank them heartily. But if they show up later asking me to tutor them in English, I’ll make sure they tutor my son in Chinese as well, because there’s still no free lunch.
9. Why did the author insist on paying the repairman while he was offered free repairs?
    A Because he was an upright man.
    B. Because he didn’t know the repairman.
    C. Because he thought it natural to pay for other’s service.
    D. Because he didn’t want to help others in return.
10. Generally, the author thinks that ___________ .
A. Chinese are generous and always ready to help their friends.
    B. Chinese are good at exchange of equal values.
    C. Chinese are free enough to drink and chat with their friends
    D. Chinese are helpful but don’t treasure time.
11. The best title for the passage should be “_________ ”.
A. Still No Free Lunch  
B. A Good Lesson from Chinese
C. True Help or Not     
D. Learn to Both Give and Receive
12. Which of the following is TRUE?
    A. All the Chinese help foreigners on purpose.
    B. Chinese like to ask for help.
    C. The author thinks little of the Chinese way of life.
    D. The author thinks that Chinese are wise enough to enjoy the limited life.
