　　第36题单选 根据以下材料，回答下面试题

　　It was Ann's first experience of flying. She had always been afraid of heights and so was prepared to be frightened. Only the fact that she was going to meet her son who she had not seen for three years had given her the courage to make the flight.

　　She sat in her seat, her hands gripping its arms, her seat belt already fastened. The air hostess was talking, telling everyone what to do in case of emergency, showing them where their life-jackets were. The plane was crowded, and every seat was full. From her window seat, getting out in a hurry would be impossible, thought Ann.ln any case who would want to get out of a plane in mid-air?

　　The engines began to shake-the noise increased till it was like a great rushing wind. She

　　looked out to see the runway slip past at astonishing speed. She wanted to cry out-to stop the plane before it left the ground, but she knew she was trapped in this great roaring machine. I must scream,she told herself, and put her hands over her eyes.

　　There was a strange feeling as if she were going up in a lift. The noise died down. Carefully she opened her eyes. Through the window she saw a great carpet of cloud above, so beautiful that she stared in wonder, hardly tuming away from the window till they touched down.

　　第40题单选 根据以下材料，回答下面试题

　　There was a river with a small town on either side of it. The towns were linked by a bridge.

　　One day, a hole appeared in the bridge. Both towns agreed that the hole should be mended.However, disagreement came up as to who should mend it. Each town thought that it had a betterreason for the other to mend the hole. The town on the right bank said that it was at the end of the road, so the left-bank town should mend the hole. The town on the left bank, on the other hand, insisted that all the traffic came to the right-bank town, so it was in their interest to mend the bridge.

　　The quarrel went on and on, and so did the hole. The more it went on, the more the hostility between the two towns grew.

　　One day a man fell into the hole and broke his leg. People from both towns questioned him closely about whether he was walking from the right bank to the left or from the left bank to the right, in order to decide which town should be blamed for the accident. But he could not remember, since he got drunk that night.

　　Some time later, a car was crossing the bridge and broke an axle(轴) because of the hole. Neither town paid any attention to the accident, as the traveler was not going from one to the other, but was merely passing through. The angry traveler got out of the car and asked why the hole was not mended.

　　On hearing the reason, he declared, "I'll buy this hole. Who's the owner?"

　　Both towns at once declared that they owned the hole.

　　"One or the other, whoever owns the hole must prove it. "

　　"How shall we prove it?" asked both sides.

　　"That's simple. Only the owner of the hole has the right to mend it. I'll buy the hole from

　　whoever mends the bridge. "

　　People from both towns rushed to do the job while the traveler smoked a cigar and his driver changed the axle. They mended the bridge in no time and asked for the money for the hole.

　　"What hole?" The traveler looked surprised. "I can't see any hole. I' ve been looking for a hole for several years now. I'm prepared to pay a good price for it, but there's no hole here. Are you pulling my leg or what?"

　　He got into his car and drove off.

　　第40题单选 What did the two towns quarrel about?

　　第44题单选 根据以下材料，回答下面试题

　　Public goods are those commodities from whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively excluded.Everybody is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities, and one person' s utilization does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else' s enjoying the same good.

　　Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect. A flood control dam is a public goods. Once the dam is built, all persons living in the area will benefit-irrespective of their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam.The same holds true for highway signs or aids to navigation. Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from the utilization of the lighthouse for navigational purposes. National defense is another example. Even a person who voted against military expenditures or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded.

　　It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefits associated with public goods.

　　There is no practicable way of charging drivers for looking at highway signs, sailors for watching a

　　lighthouse, and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense. Because the mar-ket does not provide the necessary signals, economic analysis has to be substituted for the impersonal judgement of the marketplace.

　　C. A specific group of commodities.

　　D. The advantages of lowering taxes.

　　第48题单选 根据以下材料，回答下面试题

　　There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling.

　　If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher' s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to "play safe". He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language.That's why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.

　　I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personal experience:"This work is terrible ! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible(难以辨认的) . " It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil' s technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child' s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the errors, but if his priorities had centred on the child' s idea, an expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.

　　第48题单选 Teachers are different in their opinions about .

　　A. the difficulties in teaching spelling

　　B. the role of spelling in general language development

　　C. the complexities of the basic writing skills

　　D. the necessity of teaching spelling

　　第49题单选 The expression "play safe" probably means .

　　A. to write carefully

　　B. to do as teachers say

　　C. to use dictionaries frequently

　　D. to avoid using words one is not sure of

　　第50题单选 The writer seems to think that the teacher' s judgement on that sensitive piece of writing Is .

　　A.reasonable

　　B.unfair

　　C.foolish

　　D.careless

　　第51题单选 The major point discussed in the passage is _ .

　　A. the importance of developing writing skills

　　B. the complexities of spelling

　　C. the correct way of marking compositions

　　D. the relationship between spelling and the content of a composition

　　第52题单选 根据以下材料，回答下面试题

　　In ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged in things that could be touched: food,tools, and precious metals and stones.
