PART
FIVE:
READING
A.
Cloze
test
Fill
in each blank
with
one suitable
word.
In
British
English
this standard accent is
known
as R.P. or Received
Pronunciation.
This coupled
with
the sort of
English
described in grammar books
is
the accepted (1) . Its use, however, is restricted (2)
geographically
and
socially;
it is most (3) used among the middle
classes
in the south of England. Its
speakers,
(4) , carry both a
geographical
and (5)
label,
as do the
speakers
of all its variants,
although
the more
socially
mobile someone is the more complex his accent
becomes, and so the more (6) he is to
label.
Attitudes towards this
vary,
from
the parents (7)
train
their
children
not to
speak
with
a
local
(8)
so that "they
will
have a better chance in
life",
to the
liberal,
trendy
young manager who adopts a
local
accent (9) a
form
of
inverted
snobbery. But
these
stances
are extreme, but, nevertheless, the (10)
between language and social
status
is a
potentially
explosive subject
in
British
society.
B.
Reading comprehension
Read
the following
passage
and choose the
best
answers.
A
Japanese
construction company plans to create a huge independent city-state,
akin
to the legendary
Atlantis
in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The city.
dubbed "marin-nation",
would
have
about one
million
inhabitants, two airports,
and possibly even a
space
port. Marin-nation, if
built,
would
be a
separate
country
but could
serve
as a home for international organizations such as the
United
Nations and the
World
Bank.
Aside
from
the many
political
social problems that
would
have
to be
solved,
the engineering task envisaged is monumental. The
initial
stage
requires the
building
of a circular dam 18 miles in diameter attached to the bed
in
relatively shallow place in international waters. Then, several hundred
powerful
pumps, operating for more than a year,
would
suck out the sea water
from
within
the dam. When empty and dry, the
area
would
have
a
city
constructed on it. The actual land
would
be about 300 feet below sea
level.
According
to designers, the
hardest
task
from
engineering point of
view
would
be to
ensure
that the dam is leak
proof
and earthquake proof.
If
all
goes
well,
it is hoped that marin-nation could be ready for habitation at
the end of the second
decade
of the twenty-first century. Whether anyone
would
want
to
live
in such an isolated and
artificial
community, however, it
will
remain
an open question
until
that time.
1.
To what
does
the underlined
phrase
"the city" refer?
A.
A
Japanese
construction company B.
Atlantis
C.
The
United
Nations D. A future
city
2.
What
kind
of
city
will
marin-nation be?
A.
underground B. underwater
C.
marine D. Legendary
3. The tone of the
passage
is .
A.
sarcastic
B. humorous
C.
judgmental D. informative
4.
The problem of
Marin-nation
focused on
here
is mainly .
A.
human B. engineering
C.
political
D. social
5. By referring to
Atlantis
in the
passage,
the author is saying that
A.
marin-nation
will
never be
built.
B.
marin-nation is a
city
in the ocean.
C.
even if
built,
marin-nation
will
fail.
D.
marin-nation is
only
a dream.

The
plan to
join
the
British
Isles to the European continent by
boring
a tunnel
under the sea between Dover, England, and Calais, France, was
originally
proposed in the second
half
of the nineteenth century. The
bill
authorizing the
work
was rejected in 1883. The plan was again proposed in 1930 by many
enthusiastic supporters. The tunnel was to be the longest ever made and an
engineering
wonder. However, the estimated cost, the
military
risks, and the
doubt
as to the
feasibility
of construction lead to the rejection of the proposal in
June
1930.
Finally,
in the 1980s, the proposal was accepted and tunnehng began.

The plan to unite the
British
Isles
with
the European continent
has been proposed three times.

security.

Some people did not
beheve
that the tunnel was a viable idea in
the 1930s.
5
Tunneling
originally
began in Calais, France.
6 The plan was rejected in 1883
because
the people were bored.
7
The
construction
of the tunnel
led
to
the rejection of the proposal
in
1930.
8 The tunnel made in 1930 was the longest ever made.
9 The supporters of the tunnel wanted to hire a
onderful
engineer.

It

B.
Reading
comprehension
Rearrange the following sentences
into
the correct order to
make
a
passage.
EYEWITNESS
GUIDES
1.
It all started just six
years
ago
with
Birds.
Since then. Eyewitness Guides
have become a publishing sensation - 50 subjects covered, 40 countries
conquered, 15
million
copies sold.
2.
We
live
in an age of
television,
video and interactive computing, in
which
children
are
skilled
at absorbing data
from
images at a glance.
While
this
makes them respond favourably to visual learning, the disadvantage is that
they sometimes lack confidence
with
words.
3. One of the main
reasons
behind the books'
success
is the discovery that,
against a white background, even the most famiUar objects can
look
wonderful.
4.
Eyewitness Guides are the outcome of a unique approach, in
which
photographs, models,
maps
and diagrams are specially produced.
5. But the
success
of Eyewitness Guides cannot be measured in statistics
alone, for
these
high-quality reference books have established a
completely
original
way of presenting
information.
6. Everything is done to make certain that they compete
with
the impact of
television
images.
7. So, what the Eyewitness Guides have done is to combine the two
elements, words and pictures, treating them as just one
thing
-
entertainment.
8. Often a single photographic image
will
take up an entire double
page
spread grabbing your attention.
9. But
these
books have one major advantage children can return to them again
and again,
finding
something fresh to read every
time.
10.
Whatever the image,
you'll
always
find
the text
right
along side,
building
your
understanding of the subject.
