Just the mention of the TOEFL, GRE and GAMT exams brings a thought of long hours of dull paper work. But that idea is becoming increasingly out of date. As planned, computerized tests will begin next year which will bring a series of changes from test psychology to scoring techniques.
From computer - equipped rooms, examinees will answer the questions on a computer. If they are sure about their choices, they can pass to the next question by pressing the entry (条目) “next”. Then another question will be randomly (任意地) selected from a vast test item bank and appear on the screen. After answering all the questions, examinees can choose the entry “quit” if they are not satisfied with their performance, or “score” if they want to see the result. Scores will be calculated immediately and appear on the screen. By that point, student's marks are official--there is no going back.
Since they greatly shorten the painful waiting process-which used to be two or three months, computerized tests have won worldwide popularity. Besides, there will be no rushing to the registration offices (登记处) for these exams. Computerized tests will be given every workday in an exam center with all three kinds of tests being held in the same room. All test takers need to do is to call the exam center and book their seats for a particular day.
In addition it will become technically possible to apply new testing procedures. In the past, each examinee had the same set of test items despite differences in their ability. Under a computerized system, however, if the computer judges an answer is right, a question of a relatively difficult nature will follow. But if an examinee continues to give wrong answers and is judged as un-qualified by the computer system, he will be automatically denied the chance to go further in the test.
Computerized tests allow the examinee to know their scores ______.
A. immediately on a central computer for scoring test papers
B. a few minutes after the exam with the help of a test center worker
C. on the next day after they have taken the exam
D. immediately after the exam by means of the same computer
If an examinee is not satisfied with his performance ______.
A. he can admit defeat and give it up B. he can ask the computer to give some advice
C. he can ask another chance within a few days D. he is allowed to do it once again
Under a computerized system, all of the following would be possible except that ______.
A. different exams can be taken in the same room
B. one doesn’t need to rush to the registration officer for taking an exam
C. it will be much easier to pass an examination
D. one can take an exam almost at any time of the year
The word denied in the last sentence most probably means ______.
A. refused B. allowed C. lost D. passed

The United States will introduce a new exam system for students who seek to study in the USA and other English-speaking countries, Xinhua News Agency reported from New York．
The exam, which means a great change from the current English level test, was introduced by Theresa Jen, associate director of the International Service of the USA College Board, America's leading educational organization．
"The Advanced Placement International English Language （APIEL） will be offered for the first time all over the world on May 10, 2012," said Jen．
However, the APIEL is a strange title to most Chinese students, and it is unlikely to soon gain the similarity of other already existing exams, such as the TOEFL （Test of English as a Foreign Language）, the GRE （Graduate Record Examination）, or the IELTS （International English Language Testing System）．
"I have never heard of such a test and I would prefer the IELTS if I need another exam," said Xu Jingyan, a graduating student from Beijing University, who wants to study in England and has already taken the TOEFL．
Most of Xu's classmates have never heard of the APIEL．"The APIEL is made for international students who wish to get university studies in English-speaking countries, including the United States, Britain, Canada and Australia．" Jen said．
"The APIEL will be used," said Jen, "because the TOEFL can no longer perfectly show the students' abilities of using English．" Xinhua reported that a large number of foreign students who had high scores in TOEFL exam turned out to be very ordinary educational performers after being admitted．
"Compared with the TOEFL, the APIEL measures a student's ability to read, write, speak and understand 'English through testing his or her skills in listening comprehension, speaking with fluency, and writing in an organized way．" Jen said．
The underlined word "current" in the second paragraph means____．
A．high B．present C．low D．formal
We can learn from the passage that____．
A．the TOEFL is more popular with the Chinese than the IELTS
B．it will take quite a period of time for people to accept the APIEL
C．Chinese students will prefer the IELTS rather than the APIEL even in the future
D．a student will have to take the APIEL if he/ she wants to study in English-speaking countries from 2012
The APIEL is designed for students who want to study in English-speaking countries, such as____．
A．the United States and Canada B．Canada and Ireland
C．Australia and India D．Britain and France
According to the passage, the United States will introduce a new exam because____．
A．it will bring the US government quite a lot of money
B．more and more students want to get further education in the USA
C．the existing exam systems can no longer perfectly show the students' abilities
D．the Chinese pay special attention to English studies with China's entry into the WTO
Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A．A New Exam Designed for Students
B．The Four Skills in Learning English
C．The Key to English-speaking Countries
D．TOEFL, IELTS and GRE to Be out of Date

Section B
Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.
A. environment B. necessarily C. allowed D. cheated E. hardly
F. admitted G. communication H. necessary I. joy J. difficulty
A relative of mine once asked me: “Why should a Chinese take time to learn a language that is not his own?” Obviously he has ___37___ in learning a foreign language. He is not the only one who is mentally against English learning. One reason, as I suspect, is the way English is taught. The emphasis on memorization is such that no ___38___ is left in the process, only endless irritation. What students are presented in the classroom is not the language in real-world ___39___. A Chinese student with extremely high scores for American standardized tests was ___40___ into one of the most famous universities. But his professors soon found out that he could ___41___ understand them in the classroom. Suspecting that he ___42___ in the tests, the school demanded he repeat them. Again, he passed with high scores. Not till then did they realize that the student had mastered the techniques for dealing with the tests, not ___43___ the skills of using the language.
Many people take TOFEL, IELTS, GRE, annual Band 4 and Band 6 exams not because they work in areas where English is a ___44___ tool, but because they have to do it for job promotion or enrolment in certain programmes.
Must English learning be such a pain in the neck?
Create a(n)___45____ where learning English is natural and painless. Don't make it compulsory for people whose work or major does not require it. China will not become more international by adding millions of people who can only say a simple "Hello."
