    　 When I entered Berkeley, I hoped to earn a scholarship．Having been a Straight-A student，I believed I could l6 tough subjects and really learn something. One such course was World Literature given by Professor Jayne．I was extremely interested in the ideas he l7 in class．

    　 When I took the first exam，I was l8 to find a 77，C-plus, on my test paper,19 English was my best subject，I went to Professor Jayne, who listened to my arguments but remained 20．　

    　 I decided to try harder, although I didn’t know what that 21 because school had always been easy for me．I read the books more carefully, but got another 77，Again，I 22 with Professor Jayne．Again，he listened patiently but wouldn’t change his 23．

    　 One more test before the final exam．One more 24 to improve my grade．So I redoubled my efforts and for the first time 25 the meaning of the word "thorough”. But my 26 did no good and everything 27 as before.

    　 The last hurdle(障碍)was the final．No matter what 28 I got, it wouldn’t cancel three C-pluses．I might as well kiss the 29 goodbye．

    　 I stopped working hard．I felt I knew the course material as well as I ever would．The night before the final，I even 30 myself to a movie．The next day I decided for once I'd have 31 with a test．

    　 A Week later．I was surprised to find I got an A．I hurried into Professor Jayne's office. He 32 to be expecting me．“If I gave you the As you 33，you wouldn’t continue to work as hard．’’

    　 I stared at him，34 that his analysis and strategy were correct. I had worked my head 35, as I had never done before．

    I was speechless when my course grade arrived：A-Plus．It was the only A-plus given．The next year I received my scholarship．I've always remembered Professor Jayne’s lesson：you alone must set your own standard of excellence．

    阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的四个选项中，选出一个最佳答案。

    　　When I asked my daughter which item she would keep; the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer, the TV, or her boyfriend, she said “the phone”． Personally, I could do without the phone entirely, which makes me unusual, because the telephone is changing our lives more than any other piece of technology．

    　　Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more traffic． My daughter comes home from school at 4：00 pm and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the very people she has been at school with all day． If the phone did not exist, would she have anything to talk about?

    　　Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone． “The mobile saved my life , ” says Crystal Johnstone． She had an accident in her Volvo on the A45 between Otley and Skipton． Trapped inside , she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance (救护车) to her rescue．

    　　Point 3 The mobile removes our secrets． It allows marketing manager of Haba Deutsch , Carl Nicolaisen, to ring his sales staff all round the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, any how their last meeting went．

    　　Point 4 The telephone separates us． Antonella Bramante in Rome says , “ We worked in separate offices but I could see him through the window． It was easy to get his number． We were so near－but we didn’t meet for the first two weeks!”

    　　Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives． Today we can talk to several complete strangers simultaneously (同时地) on chat lines (at least my daughter does． I wouldn’t know what to talk about)． We can talk across the world． We can even talk to astronauts (if you know any) while they’re space-walking． And, with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can use the Internet, the biggest library on the Earth．

    1．What does the writer mean by saying “The telephone creates the need to communicate”?

    [　　]

    A．People don’t communicate without telephone．

    B．People communicate because of the creating of the telephone．

    C．People have communicated more since the telephone was created．

    D．People communicate more because of more traffic．

    2．Which of the following best shows people’s attitude towards mobile phones?

    [　　]

    A．Mobile phones help people deal with the emergency．

    B．Mobile phones bring convenience as well as no secret to people．

    C．Mobile phones are so important and should be encouraged．

    D．Mobile phones encourage people to waste time in chatting．

    3．Which points do you think support the idea that phones improve people’s life?

    a． Point 1． b． Point 2． c． Point 3． d． Point 4． e． Point 5．

    [　　]

    A．c, d
    B．a, a
    C．a, c
    D．b, e

    4．It is possible to talk to several complete strangers simultaneously

    [　　]

    A．on the TV screen

    B．with a computer

    C．on chat lines

    D．by telephone

    5．The best title for the passage is

    [　　]

    A．Views on Telephones

    B．Kinds of Phone

    C．How to Use Phones

    D．Advantages of Phones

    阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

    　　One warm May day, two eighteen–year–old students from San Francisco State College decided to cool off with a swim at Bakers’ Beach．The two students were named Robert Kogler and Shirley O’Neill．They headed out to sea for a distance of 50 metres．Robert was in front．

    　　“Suddenly, I heard him scream,” Shirley recalls．“I looked round and saw this great grey thing going up in the air．The water seemed to be alive．”

    　　Robert screamed again．“It's a shark! Get out of here!”

    　　An eye–witness, Army Sergeant Leo P．Day was on guard at the nearby army post．He saw exactly what happened next．“I could see this boy struggling with the shark in the water,” he said．“The sea was red with blood．He was shouting and signalling someone to go back, go back．Then I saw the girl．She was swimming towards him．She completely ignored his warning．”

    　　Shirley reached Robert, and tried to take his hand．

    　　“When I pulled, all I could see was his arm, handing by a thread,” she said．

    　　So she put her arm about Robert's back, and started to swim towards the shore．She kept praying “Don't’ let it attack again!” That journey to the shore seemed to last for hours．At last, as they neared the shore, a fisherman threw them a line, and pulled them both the rest of the way．

    　　The young man had lost a lot of blood, and died two and a half hours later, From the teeth marks, experts identified the attacker as a Great White Shark．

    Reading comprehension

    　　When I was a boy, I belonged to the Boy Scouts so I used to go camping every summer, and once something happened which I have never been able to explain．

    　　We were camping in a place above a river．After arriving, we all rushed down to the river and had a swim．Standing by the river, we noticed that it was surrounded(环绕)by cliffs(悬崖)．If someone wanted to reach the river at this point, he had to walk past our camp．

    　　Several days later, the scoutmaster had to be away for a day．That afternoon, we had supper early．We were sitting round the fire, eating and talking, when a man walked past and went down towards the river．We all felt that this man looked very strange, but, because each of us was afraid of looking very stupid, no one said anything．

    　　We ate rather slowly, taking as long as possible．After finishing, we collected our plates together so that we could take them to the river where we always washed them．But no one moved towards the river梬e stood looking at each other ashamed．Then all shouting at once, we began talking about the man who had walked past us．We agreed how strange he looked and we wondered what he could be doing by the river．We knew that he could only return by passing through our camp．

    　　An hour passed．Then one of the boys suggested we should creep(悄悄移动)down by the river so that we could see what the man was doing．Moving very slowly and keeping in the shadow, we crept down towards the bank．One boy climbed a tree so that he could see everything clearly．He called to us that there was no one there, so we ran down to the bank, looking everywhere carefully．We could not understand where the man had gone．

    　　When it got dark, we went back to our camp feeling bewildered．We told the scoutmaster what had happened in the evening．Smiling, he doubted that we had seen the man, but finally suggested we go and look again．We did, but there was no one there．

    　　Many years have passed, but I still remember it as if it were yesterday．What did we see? I do not know．

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

    　　When I was a little girl, my mom would say,“Half the fun of doing anything is sharing it with others．”　　1　　 Friends and mates allow us to enjoy our successes and our joys, comfort us in our hard moments, and provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves．I've always looked at friends as the family we choose．They enrich our lives．As Robert Louis Steven once said,“　　2　　”

    　　To be a good friend or partner, it's important to be a good listener．Hear what your friend or mate has to say first rather than jump to conclusions or get defensive．　　3　　 When they hear their words repeated back to them, it can help them to realize what they said was not exactly what they meant to say．

    　　　　4　　 You know the old golden rule,“Care for others the way you would like them to care for you．”The support of a friend during a tough time could make the difference between success and failure．Encouragement and confidence are the gifts that can help change a person's life．

    　　Take care, though, with whom you choose to have close relationship, for they can have a great effect on yourself-respect and life path．As someone once told me “　　5　　 They will either take you up or down．”

    A．I am afraid so．

    B．It is quite true

    C．Friendship is the most important factor．

    D．Sometimes it is useful to be their mirror．

    E．A friend is a present which you give yourself．

    F．The attitudes of your friends are like the buttons on a lift．

    G．Patience, sympathy and understanding are also important qualities．
