示例〔A〕〔B〕〔C〕〔D〕Passage 1There are stories about two U.S. preside nts. An drew Jacks on and Mart in Van Bure n, which attempt to explain the American English term OK. We don ' t know if either story is true, but they are both in teresti ng.The first expla nati on is based on the fact that Preside nt Jacks on had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jacks on, he tried to read them and the n had his assista nts expla in what they said.If he approved of a paper, he would write “all correct ” on it. The problem was thathe didn ' t know how to spell, so what he really wrote was “ol korekt ” . After a while, he shortened that term to “ OK .The sec ond expla nati on is based on the place where Preside nt Van Bure n was born,Kin derhook, NewYork.

According to the second story, the term “ OK” was first used ______A. by Van BurenB. in a presidential electionC. to organize the Old Kinderhook ClubD. by t he members of the “ Old Kinderhook Club ”Passage 2Normally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes (施加)a constant (持续不断的)pressure and strain (负担)of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs.Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The student organizations are effective in ensuring that the students observe university regulations. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.16.

If you are invited to a Yuppie dinner party, don ' t be surprised if you are offered freshly cooked insects as a first course. While the idea of eating fried insects fills most of us with horror, insect eating is becoming highly fashionable. For example, in the media industry, successful managers are often seen to eat fried or boiled insects from time to time while working at their desks. These safe-to-eat insects can be found and ordered on the Internet. And young people are logging on to foreign food websites and ordering samples of prepared insects to serve at their dinner parties. Although the idea of eating insects is probably disgusting to most of us, few people would claim that pigs, chickens and some kinds of seafood we often eat are examples of great beauty. One day, insects would be marketed and sold as a food item in supermarkets. According to their fans of Yuppies, they are not only healthy, but also very tasty. But until our attitudes to food change, it seems that insects eaters will remain a select few.21. Why did the speaker say we might be surprised at the Yuppie dinner party?A.

But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” I got that great job, did Jerry really feel good about it as a friend?” Or “Denvy my luck? ” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad.
