Passage One •
A film was at the Circle Five Ranch to film a Marlboro commercial. This was in 1868, before they prohibited cigarette ads from American television. Darrell Winfield was watching the crew set up the equipment. The scene included an actor crossing a river on horseback, but when the time came to shoot, the man was too drunk to ride. Someone from the crew saw Winfield and asked him if he would ride the horse for 50 dollars. "Hell," said Winfield, "for 50 bucks, I’ll jump that damn horse over the moon!"
To people in many countries, Winfield is just a familiar but nameless face, a simple cowboy with advertising message about a connection between the West and a brand of cigarettes. Few people know that he is 55, a family man who' s been married to the same woman for 37 years and has 5 children and 7 grandchildren. Most surprisingly, he' s a real, working cowboy who raises horses in his ranch in Wyoming.
One of the most striking things about the Marlboro Man is that success hasn’t changed him much. He says that complete strangers sometimes come up to him and say, "I've met you, know you from somewhere." whenever it happens, he says that he gets embarrassed.

6 Which of the following statements is true?
A. Cigarette ads were not allowed on television in America before 1868.
B. Cigarette ads are now welcomed everywhere in America.
C. Malboro commercials were not allowed before 1868.
D. Malboro commercials were allowed on television America before 1868.
7. What does the word “prohibited” in the first paragraph mean?
A. broadcast
B. forbidden
C. produced
D. provided
8. When they filmed the ads, _____________.
A. Winfield was too drunk.
B. The actor in the ads was too drunk.
C. Winfield was setting up the equipment.
D. Winfield was riding a horse.
9. From the passage, we know that Winfield was _____________.
A. an ordinary man.
B. a superstar
C. an actor
D. a rich man
10. When people recognized Winfield, he felt ________.
A. excited
B. happy
C. interested
D. uncomfortable

Passage Two
A friend of mine was fond of drawing horses. He drew horses very well, but he always began at the tail. Mow it is the Western rule to begin at the head of the horse. That is why I was surprised. It struck me that it could not really make any difference whether the artist begins at the head or the tail or the belly or the foot of the horse, if he really knows his business. And most great artists who really know their business do not follow other people' s rule. They make their own rules. Every one of them does his work in a way strange to himself; and the peculiarity means only that he finds it easier to work in that way.
Now the very same thing is true of literature. And the question, "How shall I begin?" only means that you want to begin at the head instead of beginning at the tail or somewhere else. That is, you are not yet experienced enough to trust your own powers. When you become more experienced you will never ask the question, and 1 think that you will often begin at the tail-that is to say, you will write the end of the story before you have even thought of the beginning.

11. A friend of the writer' s drew horses
A. in the way of his own rule
B. in the way of Western rule
C. very well
D. all of the above
12. The writer was surprised because __________.
A. The artist began to draw at the head of the horse.
B. The artist began to draw at the tail of the horse.
C. The artist followed other people’s rules.
D. The artist did not follow other people’s rules.
13. You are not yet experienced because ___________.
A. You don’t know where to begin.
B. You want to begin at the head at the beginning at the tail.
C. You always asked questions.
D. You do not trust your own power.
14. When you become more experienced you will ____________.

A. never ask question
B. often begin at the tail
C. write the end of the story
D. think of the beginning
15. The passage is about _____________.
A. how to draw a horse
B. trust of your own power
C. how to make your own rules
D. how to write a story

Passage 1
How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken, or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their associations, that is, the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more we are reminded of the happy and sad events of our past by certain words; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, a real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.

6. One of the reasons why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and ideas was that ___________.
A. they could express actions and things
B. they could communicate with each other
C. they could agree upon letters
D. they could write and combine them
7. What is true about the words?
A. They are used to express only thoughts and feeling.
B. They are signs.
C. They are simply sounds.
D. They can only be written.
8. Which of the following statements is not true?
A. The more we read and learn, the more the number of words means something to us.
B. The more we read and learn, the more knowledge we will acquire.
C. The more we read and learn, the more learned we are.
D. The more we read and learn, the more literate we become.
9. In expressing their thoughts, great writers are able _______________.
A. to move men to tears
B. to be masters
C. to sing
D. to be charming
10. We will make our speech silly if we _____________.
A. use words carefully
B. use words in a literary style
C. use words without accuracy
D. use words with caution

Passage Two •
Dieting to lose weight has become very popular in recent years. People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more nutritiously (有营养) and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.
Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many avoid the so-called " plastic " fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients （成份） in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxed dinner without phone or TV interruptions.
While dieting may be viewed as beneficial, it has also become a serious problem for Americans, particularly for young women. Dieting for them has actually become a psychological addiction （依赖）They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight, and although they look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat.
The current wave of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public. Many schools, hospitals, health organizations, newspapers and magazines, for example, are offering classes, printing booklet articles, etc. to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet of the dangers of dieting too rapidly, and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to "diet addiction".
