Part 2 Cloze （with Options)     
(Each item: 1）
Directions:Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer from the choices。
Questions 41 to 60 are based on the following passage。

In the nineteenth century， the invention of the telegraph made it possible to send noises, signals， and even music over wires from one place to another. 41.， the human voice had never traveled this way。 Many inventors tried to find a 42.to send a voice over wires， and in 1876 some of their 43。were crowned with （使圆满结束） success. Two American 44。， Alexander Graham Bell and Elisha Gray, 45。at almost the same time。 The United States46。Court finally had to decide which of the two 47.the first inventor of the telephone。 The Court decided 48。Bell’s favor.
Born in Edinburg， Scotland， Bell grew up in a family 49。was very interested in teaching people to 50.。 His grandfather had been an actor who left 51。to teach elocution （雄辩术）； his father was a teacher who helped deaf-mutes learn 52。to speak.
However， probably none of the 53。inventions gave Bell the same feeling of triumph 54。he had on the day 55.he spilled some acid from his batteries。 It was after he had worked for months 56。he found ways to send something more 57。metallic twangs （”嘣”的一声） over the wires. Thinking Watson， his helper, was in the next room, Bell called, "Mr。 Watson, 58.。 I want you。” Watson was not in the next room。 He was down in his laboratory, 59.to the receiver。 To Watson’s 60。, he heard the words perfectly。 He ran to tell Bell the news: the wires had carried Bell's voice perfectly。

Questions 61 to 80 are based on the following passage。

Have you ever cheated on a test？ I 61。if I said that I had always had a strong sense of integrity or that I learned my lesson about cheating any way other than the hard way。 62。, I was caught。
My fifth grade teacher was an expert at catching students who cheated. He was 63。letting us grade our own papers。 He read the correct answers aloud and we would follow along and mark them right or wrong。 One 64。was that while I was correcting a particularly tough question on a test, he gave us a 65。answer。 I saw that mine was wrong and changed it。 I don't know how to 66。my cheating。 Maybe it was to 67.an outstanding mark or because my parents were putting excessive 68.on my performance in school。 Whatever the reason， I 69。that my inner compass that guides me to do right was not working。
We handed our papers in to him when he was finished giving us the answers and we were finished making the corrections。 Two days later my teacher 70.the names of six students。 My name was one of them. He instructed us to 71。him in the hall to speak with him individually。 Each student who went to meet with him before me returned with tears in his or her eyes and I became 72.nervous while waiting。 When I went to talk to him, he calmly 73。the question， ”Do you know why you are here?" My 74.begged me to tell him the truth， but still a（n) 75。of me hoped that he didn’t actually know。 He then asked me if I had cheated on the test。 I knew that it was too late to 76。genuine regret by admitting the truth， so I remained silent。 He 77。me that he knew I had cheated。 In fact， I had originally got all of the answers on the test right， but he had given us the strange answer to tempt us 78。changing our first answer. I didn't feel good about myself and I wanted badly to be sent home so that I did not have to face my classmates。 Unfortunately, I only received a firm 79.and had to return to class。 To make matters worse， this particular teacher was also my next-door neighbor。 For weeks， I protested when my mother would tell me to go outside to play， because I was afraid I might 80。him。

Part 3 Reading Comprehension （Multiple Choice)     
（Each item: 2）
Directions:Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B， C and D.

Questions 81 to 85 are based on the same passage or dialog.
Surely the most interesting part of Pamplona’s San Fermin Festival （旁普罗纳的圣佛明节) is its focus on danger and death。 Why would so many people, over hundreds of years， take part in something everyone fears？
The American writer Ernest Hemmingway explores this very question in his 1926 novel, The Sun Also Rises。 The main characters， who begin to feel empty living in modern Paris， travel to Spain， and join in the San Fermin Festival。 There， they see death through Spanish eyes。
By joining in the events of this colorful celebration， they begin to understand how the Spanish， in celebrating death， are actually celebrating life. Through the images of the black bull （公牛）and the bullfighter’s blood—red cloth， they discover that the Spanish find meaning in life by worshipping(崇拜）heroic death。 With people running for their lives， and bullfighters dancing with the bulls， life and death come together at the San Fermin Festival。
First， imagine yourself， along with thousands of others， running for your life towards a bullring （斗牛场) 852 meters ahead! You hear the heavy breath of 600—kilogram bulls running alongside you and feel their power and strange beauty. You are part of a noisy crowd, experiencing something that is more like a dream than reality.
Although all this might seem like a scene from a Hollywood action movie, it is not. It describes what has become known as "the running of the bulls", the most famous part of the Spanish celebration known as San Fermin.
Held every July for nine days in the ancient city of Pamplona, the San Fermin Festival draws hundreds of thousands to what is considered ”the biggest party in Europe"。

Questions 86 to 90 are based on the same passage or dialog.
”Down—to-earth” means being honest， open， and easy to deal with。 It is a pleasure to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to。 He or she accepts others as equals (相等的人)。 Down—to—earth persons may be important members of society， of course， but they do not let their importance go to their heads. They do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. Someone who is filled with self—importance and pride， often without cause， is said to have his nose in the air。 There is no way a person with his nose in the air can be down-to-earth。
Americans use another expression that is similar in some way to ”down—to-earth." The expression is "both feet on the ground.” Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality。 He has what is called "common sense.” The opposite kind of person is one who has his ”head in the clouds.”
The person who is down—to—earth usually has both feet on the ground。 But the opposite is not always true. Someone with both feet on the ground may not be as open and easy to deal with as someone who is down—to—earth。 However， when we have both our feet firmly on the ground, we are realistic （现实的）, and we act honestly and openly toward others， and our lives are like the groun
