It seems that in the 1980s the principal carriers of the disease were homosexuals, drug users and prostitutes. Now it is becoming evident that heterosexuals also spread the disease, that children can be born with the virus and that patients in hospitals are being infected too.Just as the WHO fought the spread of children’s disease throughout the world in the 1960s, so now they must again use education to fight this killer disease. The organization proposes to write newspaper articles and books, and to make videos and TV programs. These will be translated into the major languages of the world so that as many people as possible can be educated about the danger of AIDS.However, we are still faced with two big questions. Is educating the public enough if we are to control the spread of AIDS? Does the WHO have enough money and resources for hospitals throughout the world to help and care for sufferers? Onefact is becoming clearer and that is that the WHO has not focused enough on the need to educate medical staff. There are still hospitals and health centers in some parts of the world which do not accept AIDS patients, while there are others where too little care is taken to prevent the spread of the disease.1. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?Ca. AIDS is a disease for which a cure has been found.b. AIDS is a disease which has just been found.c. AIDS is a disease which has existed for a long time.d. AIDS is a disease which spreads very slowly.2. Who is easily infected with AIDS?Da. People who use drugs.b. People who visit prostitutes.c. Patients who stay in hospital.d. All of the above.3. In WHO’s opinion, what will help most effectively in fighting against the spread of AIDS?Aa. More education.b. More medicines.c. More doctors.d. More equipment.4. From the passage, we can see that the writer is not happy about ___B___.a. the education the general public get on AIDSb. the education the medical staff get on AIDSc. the TV programs on AIDSd. the newspaper articles on AIDS5. Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage?Ca. It is not enough only to educated the general public.b. There are some hospitals in some parts of the world which do not accept AIDSpatients.c. Great care has been taken to prevent the spread of AIDS everywhere in the worldnow.d. More money and resources are needed to control the spread of AIDS.Passage TwoIn recent years many countries of the world have been faced with the problem of how to make their workers more productive. Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity (生产率)? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker’s life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, then, variety is not an important factor.Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important, and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machinery which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it.Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of theproduct. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than a single large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is the degree of workers’ contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also a factor we can do something about.To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter working hours be so important to them.6. According to the author, many factories of the world have been faced with the problem of ___B___.a. a lack of workersb. how to increase productivityc. product distributiond. low-quality products7. Job variety can ___B___.a. greatly increase productivityb. make the workers’ life more pleasantc. make the workers work harderd. increase the variety of products8. It is not easy for the workers to get freedom to do their job in their own way because _C_____.a. there is a shortage of the workersb. the managers don’t allow them to do soc. modern machinery must be operated in a particular wayd. there are too many production lines9. According to experiments, if a car factory wants the workers to contribute more to the product they are making, it should ___B___.a. expand the factoryb. change a large production line into many small onesc. raise their wagesd. allow them to see just one small part of the product10. What is probably the best way to make the workers more productive, according to the author?Ba. Paying workers more money.b. Making jobs more interesting.c. Shortening working hours.d. Allowing workers more leisure time.Passage ThreeNowadays, if you were to ask 100 people their opinions about what to wear to an interview, the majority would answer: clean and simple clothes without showing off. An interview is not the place to make a fashion statement, though those in the art fields and the very famous can be a little different. Everyone else should choose to have a good enough but ordinary look. More and more companies are returning totraditional professional dress.Whatever you wear should go with the fact that you’re a professional who’s ready to get to work at a new job. let common sense be your guide, and it should be easy to avoid fashion mistakes that could damage your chances of getting to the next level in the process. In this market, it is essential that you look good and your appearance is right for the job.Colors in various shades of blue and gray are the best. Wearing black to the interview could be viewed as too serious. It you do wear black, make sure that there is another color near your face to soften the look. Brown is still considered questionable as a business color, and probably should be avoided. Change your outfit’s look for a second interview by wearing a different color blouse, shirt, scarf or tie.With these in mind, here are some well-thought-out suggestions on how to avoid fashion mistakes. An image consultant says, clothes should be a part of who you are and should not be noticed. She mentions some mistaken ways of dressing to avoid when interview time comes around:1. Wild Nail Polish –for men or women. Extremely long or uncut nails are a real turnoff, too. Your nails should be neatly cut.2. Jewellery That Makes Sounds: Don’t wear more than two rings per hand or only one single earring. If you do wear earrings, make sure they are in pair.3. Bare Legs: Wear stockings, even in hot summer weather. Stockings can be in quiet colors or a fashion color to match your shoes.4. Out-of-Date Suits or Leather Jackets for Men or Women: The style for men’s jackets is full-body and looser rather than fitted or tight. Leather jackets are not good for interviewing purposes. They look like outdoors wear. A tie is preferred, at least at the first meeting. At the very least, wear a collared shirt.5. Short Skirts: Skirts should be more than three inches long below the knee. Don’t even think about wearing pants to the interview.6. Printed or Trendy Handbags for women; Red Briefcases for men –Briefcases, purses and shoes should not be noisy in color and should be in good condition.11. From this passage we know that the author thinks ____A__.a. people in art fields and the very famous can dress themselves differentlyb. dressing oneself up to an interview is very important to attract noticec. traditional dress is the best for any situationd. traditional professional dress is too ordinary12. According to the author, when you are going to an interview, ___C___.a. whatever you wear is OK as long as you get the jobb. you don’t have to bet prepared, since it should be easyc. you should dress yourself in the right way for the job you are seekingd. your common sense will certainly get you through13. In the second paragraph of this passage, the phrase “In this market…” refers to the____D__ market.a. fashionb. image consultantc. clothesd. job14. It is believed that ___B___.a. black color is totally unacceptable since it is too serious for an interviewb. brown should be avoided because people are doubtful about it as a business colorc. dark blue or light gray is the best color for an intervieweed. one should change the color of one’s dress for each interview totally15. Which of the statement is not true according to the passage?Aa. Men should wear a jacket that fits him quite well for an interview.b. Short skirts wouldn’t be suitable dresses for an interviewc. To go to an interview, women should not wear pants.d. Never take a trendy handbag for an interview.Passage FourAccidents are caused; they don’t j ust happen. The reason may be easy to see: an overloaded tray, a shelf out of reach, a patch of ice on the road. But more often than not there is a chain of events leading up to the misfortune – frustration, tiredness, or just bad temper – that show what the accident really is, a sort of attack on oneself.Road accidents, for example, happen frequently after a family quarrel, and we all know people who are accident-prone, so often at odds with (和…争执) themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others.By definition, an accident is something you cannot predict to avoid, and the idea which used to be current, that the majority of road accidents are caused by a minority of criminally careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics. These show that most accidents involve ordinary motorists in a moment of carelessness or thoughtlessness.It is not always clear, either, what sort of conditions made people more likely to have an accident. For instance, the law requires all factories to take safety precautions and most companies have safety committees to make sure that the regulations are observed, but still, every day in Britain, some fifty thousand men and women are absent from work due to accident. These accidents are largely the result of human error or misjudgment –noise and fatigue (疲劳), boredom or worry are possible factors which contribute to this. Doctors who work in factories have found that those drink too much, usually people who have a high anxiety level, run three times the normal risk of accidents at work.16. According to the author, the accidents are mainly caused by __B___.a.external conditionsb.people’s internal conditions influenced by physical or mental factorsc.slippery roadsd. a chain of events17. People used to think that __A___.a.car accidents are mainly caused by some drivers who drive so carelessly thatthey violate the traffic regulationsb.car accidents are mainly caused by ordinary drivers when they are careless orabsent-minded for a momentc.insurance companies support those who drive carelesslyd.an accident is something we cannot predict to avoid18. The passage suggests that __D___.a.safety regulations effectively prevent the accidents at workb.with all the safety precautions, accidents at work cannot be avoidedc.the human error or misjudgment leading to accidents at work are mainly due toworking environmentd.both b. and c.19. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor of accident?Da. Moodb. Tirednessc. Carelessnessd. Weather20.What do you think would be the best title for the passage?Ca. Accidents and Anxiety.b. How Accidents Are Caused.c. Human Factors in Accidents.d. How to Prevent Accidents on Roads and in Factories.Part V ClozeScientists say that the disappearance of the trees is already 1 changes in the climate.

In fact it has brought us nothing but trouble and inconvenience.It worked perfectly well for the first few days and then it began to make trouble. The day before yesterday, there was a football match between the Chinese Team and the Brazil’s. I turned on the TV with great expectation but it flashed a lot with lots of noise. I immediately turned it off and a few minutes later I tried it again. Much to my surprise, it refused to work with no picture and sound. I got very angry and my brother said it was totally dead.I am sure you will agree this is an unsatisfactory situation and it is also unfair toa customer. So I sincerely hope you will send some serviceman here to fix it or arrange for someone to replace it. Failing that, I will insist on a refund for the full price I have paid. Of course I hope we will not go so far.Looking forward to your reply, I am.Yours sincerely,Chen Ming11。
