此部分共有2篇短文，每篇短文后有5个问题。请从每个问题后的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出对的选项。
Passage 1
In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it’s a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence. (260 words)

Passage 2
There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.
Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.
Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.(221 words)
11. Our long-term goals mean a lot ____________.
A. If we cannot reach solid short-term goals B. If we complete the short-term goals
C. If we have dreams of the future D. If we put forward some plans
12. New short-term goals are built upon ____________. 短期目的是以以前完毕的目的为前提的。
A. a daily basis B. your achievement in a week
C. current activities D. the goals that have been completed
13. When we complete each step of our goals, ____________.每完毕一个目的，将会增长我们成功的信心。
A. we will win final success B. we are overwhelmed
C. we should build up confidence of success D. we should have strong desire for setting new goals
14. What is the main idea of this passage? ____________ 这篇短文的中心思想是什么？
A Life is a dynamic thing. B. we should set up long-term goals
C. Different kinds of goals in life. 目的的不同种类。 D. The limitation of long-term goals.
15. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? ____________
A. The long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals
B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.
C. Life is a static thing, thus we should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.
D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.

第二部分：阅读理解（共10小题；每小题3分，满分30分）
此部分共有2篇短文，每篇短文后有5个问题。请从每个问题后的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出对的选项。
Passage 1
How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.
The power of words, then, lies in their associations-the thing they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.
6. The origin of language is _______. 语言的起源是：
A. a legend handed down from the past B. a matter that is hidden or secret
C. a question difficult to answer D. a problem not yet solved一个尚未解决的问题
7. What is true about words? 关于词汇哪一项是对的？
A. They are used to express feelings only. B. They can not be written down.
C. They are simply sounds. 他们是简朴的声音 D. They are mysterious.
8. The real power of words lies in their _______. 文字的真正力量在于其____
A. properties B. characteristics
C. peculiarity D. representative function 代表功能
9. By “association”, the author means _______. 作者用“联系性”这个词指
A. a special quality B. a joining of ideas in the mind头脑中思想的联接
C. an appearance which is puzzling D. a strange feature
10. Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true?
A. He is no more than a master of words. 他只但是是一个文字的掌握者。
B. He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.
C. He can move men to tears. D. His style is always charming.
Passage 2
Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person’s conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by c
