11、ur choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage1There are stories about two U.S. presidents, Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, which attempt to explain the American English te

12、rm OK. We dont know if either story is true, but they are both interesting.The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read them and then had his assist

13、ants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write “all correct” on it. The problem was that he didnt know how spell, so what he really wrote was “ol korekt”. After a while, he shortened that term to “OK”.The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was

14、born, Kinderhook, New York. Van Burens friends organized a club to help him become President. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club, and anyone who supported Van Buren was called “OK”.11. The author_.A. believes both of the storiesB. doesnt believe a word of the storiesC. is not sure whether

18、of the “Old Kinderhook Club”Passage2Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林業(yè)), and most of t

19、he rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may still be very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the popu

20、lation now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas (large cities with their suburbs) of more than a million people each a larger proportion than in Germany or England, let alone France. The statistics (統(tǒng)計) of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live i

21、n areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live out of town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical Amer

22、ican lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.16. If now America has 250 million people, how many of them are engaged in agriculture and forestry _A. About 25 million.B.

25、 hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb _A. Because they are the same.B. Because the rush takes place too quickly.C. Because the process is gradual. D. Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas.Passage3If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should p

26、robably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Somet

27、imes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who

28、 lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write,

29、 thy may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in th

30、e past. This we may call remembered history. Some of it has mow been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such s

31、poken stories are often very helpful.21. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage _ A. “Remembered history”, compared with written history, is less reliable.B. Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history.C. A written account of ou

32、r daily activities helps us to be able to answer many questions.D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.22. We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _ .A. there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB. the people there ignored the importance of

33、 keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD. the people there did not know how to write23. “Remembered history” refers to _ .A. history based on a persons imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most imp

34、ortant eventsD. both B and C24. “Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when _ .A. it is written downB. no written account is availableC. it proves to be trueD. people are interested in it25. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than we do now if the anc

35、ient people had _ .A. kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsE. made more songs and dancesPassage 4Mum, can we go to McDonalds, please? Some people might ask, Where would we be today if we did not have

36、fast food? and Where would parents take their children out to eat? It has been reported that approximately 30% of meals consumed by families in the USA are eaten at one of the big chains like Burger King and Taco Bell, though probably none is more famous than McDonalds. The distinctive golden arch c

37、an now be seen in most major cities in the world. In 2002, McDonalds had approximately 25,000 restaurants in over 120 countries and served 29 million people a day. Apparently, the secret of their success is a marketing strategy of think global, act local. McDonalds learnt that if they adapted their

38、Mac meals to different cultures, it was more successful than having a standardised set of products that taste the same everywhere. So now, around 80% of McDonalds restaurants are franchised to local people who serve food with a local flavour. For example, in Hong Kong, food called Shake Shake Fries

39、and Red Bean Sunday can be found on the menu, while in Switzerland, Vegi Macs are served. However, fast food is not popular with everyone. It is often called junk food because it is said to be unhealthy and full of fat. Furthermore, many people claim that fast food chains produce enormous amounts of

40、 waste, while millions of people in developing countries go hungry. At the same time, more and more people no longer cook fresh food at home. Convenience food is just too convenient! It is so easy for people with busy working lives to call into their local branch of Marks and Spencer, or some other

41、supermarket chain, to buy ready-made meals on their way home from work. It is even easier to buy a take-away from a local restaurant or pick up the phone and order a pizza to be delivered to your home. 26.
