    My friend Robert started a new job this week and he’s been in the training class for two days. The employer has a very strict dress code—dark blue shirts and pants.
    On the first day, an older gentleman in his class did not have the proper clothes and he was strictly told that he would be fired if he didn’t have the right clothes the next day. He explained, “Sir, I had been told about this, but because of my larger size, it’s sometimes difficult to find the right clothing for a price I can afford.”
    Last night, Robert and I decided that this old man shouldn’t lose the chance of work simply because he couldn’t afford the clothes. I had some cash on hand and Robert took it with him this morning just in case it was needed.
    When training started this morning, the trainer was ready to fire the older gentleman. “You have 10 minutes to be in proper clothes,” he was told. At this point, Robert spoke up and asked if he could have 10 minutes to get him the clothes. He then ran out to the store and bought the proper-sized pants and a shirt; he returned with both and gave them to the older man.
    The older gentleman began to cry and told him that he couldn’t accept such a gift from a stranger. Robert told him he had to because he had lost the receipt(收据) and couldn’t return them—a little white lie. The pants were a perfect fit, the shirt was a bit tight but he was able to keep his job.
    “My wife and I tried to gather together some money last night, but we didn’t have enough to buy the clothes,” he told Robert. “It’s unbelievable to me that a person would do such a thing for only knowing me a day!”
    More unbelievable is how good it has made Robert and me feel to do this.

    1. 1.

      If the older man did not have the proper clothes, he would _____.

      1. A.
        be punished
      2. B.
        be offered another job
      3. C.
        put off the training class
      4. D.
        lose his job
    2. 2.

      The money which was paid for the clothes was _____.

      1. A.
        the trainer’s
      2. B.
        the older man’s
      3. C.
        the writer’s
      4. D.
        Robert’s
    3. 3.

      How did Robert persuade the older man to accept the clothes?

      1. A.
        He told the older man that he would lose his job if he did not take them.
      2. B.
        He told a lie that the clothes didn’t fit himself.
      3. C.
        He told the older man that he could save money and return it later.
      4. D.
        He told the older man that he had no way to send them back.
    4. 4.

      What might be the best title for the passage?

      1. A.
        Proper clothes for a stranger
      2. B.
        Fight against strict rules
      3. C.
        A strange employer
      4. D.
        An unbelievable thing

    What will man be like in the future — in 5,000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today, for man is slowly changing all the time.
    Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we may suppose that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity(容量). As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and finally we shall need our brains more and more, and finally we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring a physical change too: the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.
    Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.
    On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.
    But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.
    Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and motions similar to our own

    1. 1.

      The passage mainly tells us that __________

      1. A.
        Man’s life will be different in the future
      2. B.
        Future man will look quite different from us
      3. C.
        Man is growing taller and uglier as time passes
      4. D.
        Man’s organs’ functions will change
    2. 2.

      What serves as the evidence that man is changing?

      1. A.
        Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had
      2. B.
        Man’s hair is getting thinner and thinner
      3. C.
        Man’s arms and legs have become lighter and weaker
      4. D.
        Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years
    3. 3.

      The change in man’s size of the forehead is probably because __________

      1. A.
        he makes use of only 20% of the brain’s capacity
      2. B.
        his brain has grown larger over the past centuries
      3. C.
        he will use his brain more and more as time goes on
      4. D.
        the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time
    4. 4.

      Which of the following is TRUE about a human being in the future?

      1. A.
        He is hairless because hair is no longer useful
      2. B.
        He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses
      3. C.
        His fingers grow weaker because he doesn’t have to make use of them
      4. D.
        He thinks and feels in a different way
    5. 5.

      It is implied that __________

      1. A.
        human beings will become less attractive in the future
      2. B.
        body organs will become poorer if they are not used often

        human beings hope for a change in the future life

        future life is always predictable

    There are two types of twins; identical and non-identical twins. Identical twins are formed from a single egg in mother’s body which divides to from two separate babies. Identical twins look the same, and are often dressed by their parents in clothes of the same colors. It is often difficult to tell identical twins from each other, even when they are standing side by side. Non-identical twins come into being when the mother produces two separated eggs a the same time, both of which grow to form babies. In this case the twins look like normal brothers and sisters and are easy to tell one from the other.
    In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into twins. He invited many pairs of identical twins to university and asked them to take part in a week of tests. He was particularly interested in adopted (收养) twins who had been separated at birth. He would give the twins different kinds of tests to study their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory, the ways they saw and heard different things, and so on. Time and time again he found separated twins who preferred clothes of the same color, used the same kind of shaving soap, wore the same shaped square glasses and the same colored socks.
    There is a third type of twins, but it is a very unusual one. Twins which are joined together at birth are known in western countries as Siamese twins.

    1. 1.

      It is difficult to tell identical twins apart because _______.

      1. A.
        they are dressed in the same clothes
      2. B.
        they are dressed in the same color
      3. C.
        they are very alike
      4. D.
        they are standing side by side
    2. 2.

      If the twins are easy to tell from each other, they are ______.

      1. A.
        very probably non-identical twins
      2. B.
        surely identical twins
      3. C.
        surely identical twins
      4. D.
        always a brother and a sister
    3. 3.

      Which of the following is NOT true according to this passage?

      1. A.
        In the 1970s and 1980s a scientist did some research into the two main types of twins.
      2. B.
        In the week of tests, he tested their speed of thinking, their speech, their memory and some other things.
      3. C.

      4. D.
        Very often, separated twins were found to choose things of the same kind, the same shape and the same color.

    The physicians in a hospital form the center of medical staff. But they could not provide effective medical care to their patients without the help of numerous other medical employees. From the viewpoint of the patients, the nursing staff is particularly important. Nurses are usually in close contact with patients as long as they are in the hospital.
    A nurse does not study for as many years as a doctor. however, each must be equally dedicated. Caring for sick persons requires a great deal of patience and concern. Most nurses work long days, and they often must work at odd hours or during the night.
    Under the supervision (监管) of the head nurse, the nursing staff must provide nursing services on a 24-hour basis and attend to patients’ needs. This responsibility continues around the clock, and so nurses must work in shifts. A shift is a period of duty, usually eight in length. The nurses on the ward rotate their shifts. Some take turns working night duty; others work odd shifts.
    A nurse must always be alert. She can never afford to be careless. This is true in all nursing situation, but it is especially true in the intensive care unit. Patients under intensive care are critically ill, and they must be monitored at all times. The nurses who do intensive care duty have one of the most demanding jobs in the hospital.
    Serving as a nurse can be a very rewarding job. But it is not an easy one. Not every person is suited to become a nurse. Only very dedicated people have chosen nursing as a profession.

    1. 1.

      1. A.
        are central to the medical staff
      2. B.
        play an important role in caring for patients
      3. C.
        can work effectively without physicians
      4. D.
        are always in close contact with the patients
    2. 2.

      Why don’t nurses study for as many years as doctors?

      1. A.
