You will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and decide whether the statements are true or false, or that the information is not given in the passage. Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Theft Deterrent SystemTo deter the vehicle theft, the system is designed to give an alarm and keep the engine from being started if any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is forcibly unlocked or the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnected when the vehicle is locked. The alarm blows the horn intermittently and flashes the headlights, tail lights and other exterior lights. The engine cannot be started because the starter circuit will be cut. SETTING THE SYSTEM1. Turn the ignition key to the “LOCK” position and remove it.2. Have all passengers get out of the vehicle.3. Close and lock the front, sliding and back doors and hood.The indicator light will come on when the front, sliding and back doors and hood are closed and locked.As the front doors are locked, the system will give you a preparation time of 30 seconds before the setting, during which the front, sliding and back doors and hood may be opened to prepare for the setting.Be careful not to use the key when opening either front door. This will cancel the system.4.After making sure the indicator light starts flashing, you may leave the vehicle. The system will automatically be set after the preparation time elapses. The indicator light will flash to show the system is set. If any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is opened at that time, the setting is interrupted until it is closed and locked. Never leave anyone in the vehicle when you set the system, because unlocking from the inside will activate (使起动) the system.WHEN THE SYSTEM IS SETActivating the systemThe system will give the alarm and cut the starter circuit under the following conditions:If any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is unlocked without using the keyIf the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnectedAfter one minute, the alarm will automatically stop with the starter circuit cut kept on.Reactivating the alarmOnce set, the system automatically resets the alarm each time the front, sliding and back doors and hood are closed after the alarm stops.The alarm will be activated again under the following conditions:If any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is openedIf the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnectedStopping the alarmTurn the ignition key from the “LOCK” to “ACC” position. The alarm will be stopped with the starter circuit cut kept on. Stopping the alarm in this manner will keep the alarm from being reactivated when any of the front, sliding and back doors and hood is opened. Interrupting the settingWith the system set, the back door can be opened with the key without activating or canceling the system. While it is open, the front and sliding doors and hood may be opened in addition, and the system can be activated only by the battery terminal disconnection.To resume the setting, close and lock the front, sliding and back doors and hood. The back door must be closed with the key removed.CANCELLING THE SYSTEMUnlock either front door with the key, or unlock the sliding door with the key when it has been closed. This cancels the system completely and the starter circuit cut will be cancelled at once.INDICATOR LIGHTThe indicator light gives the following three indications when the system is in use. When the light is:FLASHING-The system is set. You need the key to open the front, sliding and back doors and hood. ON-The system will automatically be set when the time comes. The front, sliding and back doors and hood may be opened without a key.OFF-The system is inactive. You may open any door and hood.TESTING THE SYSTEM1. Open the drivers and front passengers windows.2. Set the system as described above. The front doors should be locked with the key. Be sure to wait until the indicator light starts flashing.3. Unlock one of the front, sliding and back doors from the inside. The system should activate the alarm.4. Cancel the system by unlocking either front door with the key.5. Repeat this operation for the other doors and hood. When testing on the hood, also check that the system is activated when the battery terminal is disconnected and then reconnected.

Each passage is followed by some comprehension questions. Read the passages and answer the questions. Then, mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.England is not a big country: from north to south and from east to west it is only about three hundred miles across. But for a small country it has a surprising range of climate. People who have never visited England, or who have visited only one part of it, often make the mistake of thinking that it is a cold and wet country. Except for the summer months of June to September, this is probably true of the north of England and the Midlands. In the south, however, the climate is much more pleasant. One result is that when people retire from a job in the north they often prefer to move down to the milder south. Perhaps the warmest part of the country is the south-west, which consists of the counties of Devon and Cornwall. The warm Gulf Stream flows across the North Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of Mexico (墨西哥湾) and makes the coastal regions of the south-west quite warm. Palm trees, bamboo and many semi-tropical plants grow well in the south-west of England. Flowers and vegetables ripen as much as a month earlier than those elsewhere. Farmers in the area obtain a higher price for their vegetables and flowers because they are ready earlier. In winter there may be several feet of snow in other parts of England but there will probably be no snow at all in the south-west. This may be one of the reasons why the south-west is one of Englands most popular holiday areas. 36The distance from the center of England to the south coast is about _. a. one hundred miles b. three hundred miles c. one hundred and fifty miles d. six hundred miles 37England is a country _. a. with a cold and wet climate b. with a surprising climate c. with a pleasant climate d. with a variety of climates 38According to the passage, _. a. flowers and vegetables from Devon are on the market one month earlier b. farmers in the south-west grow as many vegetables and flowers as farmers elsewhere c. people in the south-west have to pay a higher price for vegetables and flowers d. vegetables in Cornwall ripen as mush as a month earlier than flowers 39In the north of England and the Midlands, _. a. it is cold and wet all the year round b. the climate is pleasant as a whole c. it is warm most of the time in a year d. only the summer is not cold and wet 40In winter, people in Devon and Cornwall _. a. seldom see snow b. never see any snow c. may have several feet of snow d. often see snow I hated almost every day of my time at boarding school and, in any case, my first term was a disaster. I found it very difficult to settle down, and my unhappiness was made worse because I was also unhappy at home. A happy home life gives you a base from which you can go into the world with confidence. But if life at home is difficult, life away at boarding-school is almost impossible. Apart from having to keep a great many rules and customs, many of which seemed to me stupid, we were never allowed to be alone. You had to be with another boy at all times. I am extremely dependent on being alone part of every day, so daily life at school was very hard for me, though the other boys managed fairly well. In the middle of the first term I developed a cough. The school nurse said it was a stomach-cough, whatever that may be, and gave me some pills. However, afterwards, playing football in a sno
