Part III  Reading Comprehension. (2x20)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet

 Passage 1

Researchers have found that REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.
   There are physical charges in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.
   Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.
61. According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?
A. Once         B. Twice    C. Four of five times      D. Forty times
62. The word “deeper” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to which of the following?
A. heavier.       B. louder.     C. stronger.             D. happier.
63. Which of the following shows that a person is NOT dreaming in his sleep?
A. His eyes begin to move.          B. His breathing becomes faster.
C. His heart rate increases.          D. His eyes stop moving.
64. The subject of this passage is ________.
A. why people sleep                B. the human need for REM sleep
C. the characteristic of REM sleep     D. physical changes in the human body
65. Which of the following is the best title of the article?
A. REM Sleep  B. Two Types of Sleep  C. Sleepers    D. What Happens to Sleepers

Passage 2

Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been
accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.
　　Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.
　　People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.
　　It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal (残酷的), has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation (冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox's smell, which the dogs follow.
　　Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.

66. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes______________.

　　A) for recreation　　　　　　　　　B) in the interests of the farmers
　　C) to limit the fox population　　　　D) to show off their wealth

67. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?
　　A) It involves the use of a deadly poison. 　　B) It is a costly event which rarely occurs.
　　C) The hunters have set rules to follow. 　　D) The hunters have to go through strict training.

68. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game________.
　　A) by resorting to violence　　　　　　B) by confusing the fox hunters　
　　C) by taking legal action　　　　　　　D) by demonstrating on the scene

69. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to________.
　　A) prohibit farmers from hunting foxes 　　B) forbid hunting foxes with dogs
　　C) stop hunting wild animals in the countryside 　　D) prevent large-scale fox hunting

70. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
　　A) killing foxes with poison is illegal
　　B) limiting the fox population is unnecessary
　　C) hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violent
　　D) fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the rich

In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue（烤肉）restaurant, and then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.
   Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks" sticking to their routine.

Part VI   Writing

Movement of Population

Nowadays, with the development of modern society，there has been a steady rise in the number of movement of population. This phenomenon has aroused considerable concern from the whole society.

Just as a coin has its two sides，the movement of population is no exception. It has brought about many benefits. First and foremost, there is no denying the limited land can no longer produce enough crops for an ever-increasing rural population. In addition, it is obvious that there are far more opportunities in big cities—rural laborers dream of earning money through hard work However，it also has some problems. For one thing，it will increase the pressure of traffic，for another, it also does great harm to the environment.

    On the basis of the above analysis I mentioned above, we can confidently predict the future tendency. There is no denying that if city people and rural laborers have devoted themselves to constructing a healthy city，we will have a promising future.
