Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
When Rowland Hill, little more than a hundred years ago, first advocated the introction of cheap postage in England, he had to face many opponents of the scheme; some said that it would not pay, others that it was unworkable. But Hill, supported by general public opinion, eventually overcame opposition, and late in 1839 the Penny Post was established. From then until the first world war the cost of sending a letter any distance within the United Kingdom remained at one penny. The gloomy prophecies (預言) of the critics were not fulfilled: the profits of the Post Office were maintained and improvements in transport and administration made it possible not only to handle the increased volume of correspondence but also to extend postal facilities.
Before this great change took place, the charge for sending a letter varied according to the distance the letter was carried and had to be paid for on delivery by the person to whom it was addressed. The lowest charge was four pence and for long distances as much as eighteen pence. Such high rates, when wages were low, could rarely be afforded by poor people, who were often compelled to refuse letters from their dear ones because they were unable to pay. Under the new scheme, a letter was paid for by the sender, who affixed(貼上) to it an adhesive(粘的) postage stamp, the cost of which was within reach of all. Thus the poor were enabled to exchange news with their relations and friends at a time when many of them had left their homes to seek work elsewhere.�
Businessmen also found cheap postage a boom and, since it soon turned out to be a great financial success, the new scheme was, before long, adopted by every civilized country in the world——a final tribute(明證) to the wisdom and vision of its promoter.
21. 「Some said that it (i.e. Rowland Hill\'s scheme) would not pay」 means ________.
A. some said that people would refuse to pay for the scheme�
B. some said that the scheme would not be profitable�
C. some said that the scheme was not economical�
D. some said that they did not have enough money to pay for the scheme�
22. Rowland Hill\'s system is known as the 『Penny post』 ________.�
A. because it undertook the delivery of all inland letters for the charge of one penny�
B. since it was established late in 1839�
C. because many people who used its facilities were poor�
D. as a result of the gloomy prophecies of those who had said scheme would not pay
23. Postal facilities were extended after the introction of the Penny Post ________.
A. because the volume of correspondence increased�
B. as a result of improvements in transport and administration�
C. until the first world war�
D. provided that the cost of sending a letter remained at one penny�
24. Under the old system the poor had frequently been compelled to refuse letters ________.�
A. because they could not afford to pay the high postage rates which had to be paid on receipt of a letter�
B. unless the charge on them was less than four pence�
C. although rates varied according to the distance letters were carried�
D. because many of them had left their homes to seek work elsewhere�
25. The new postal scheme was adopted by every civilized country in the world ________.
A. because it enabled the poor, as well as the rich, to exchange news�
B. as a tribute to the wisdom and vision of its promoter�
C. since the scheme, in addition to its convenience, had proved financially successful�
D. a hundred years after its adoption by the English
Passage Two
�Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
�We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. 「Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?」 「When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?」「And Paul-why didn\'t I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?」 When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it\'s too late.�
Why do we go wrong about our friends——or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don\'t really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, 「You\'re a lucky dog.」 Is he really on your side? If he said, 「You\'re a lucky guy」 or 「You\'re a lucky gal,」 that\'s being friendly. But 「lucky dog」? There\'s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn\'t see it himself. But bringing in the 「dog」 bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn\'t think you deserve your luck.�
「Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for」 is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn\'t important. It\'s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven\'t got a date for Saturday night.�
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone\'s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says quare with(符合) the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.�
26. In the first paragraph, the writer recalls some things that happened between him and his friends. He ________.�
A. feels happy, thinking of how nice his friends were to him�
B. feels he may not have 「read」 his friends\' true feeling correctly�
C. is sorry that his friends let him down�
D. thinks it was a mistake to have broken up with his girl friends, Helen
27. In the second paragraph, the writer talks about someone saying, 「You\'re a lucky dog.」 He is saying that ________.�
A. the speaker of this sentence is just being friendly�
B. this saying means the same as 「You\'re a lucky guy」 or 「You\'re a lucky gal.」
C. the word 「dog」 shouldn\'t be used to apply to people�
D. sometimes the words give a clue(線索) to the feeling behind the words�
28. This passage tries to tell you how to ________.�
A. avoid mistakes about money and friends�
B. 「size up」 people�
C. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you�
D. keep people friendly without trusting them�
29. In listening to a person the important thing is ________.�
A. to notice his tone, his posture, and the look in his eye�
B. to listen to how he pronounces his words�
C. to check his words against his manner, his tone of voice, and his posture�
D. not to believe what he says�
30. The phrase 『puts you down』 (Para 2, Line 7) can be replaced by another phrase 「________」.�
A. makes you humble B. reces you to silence�
C. press you down D. makes you sad Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
It is not often realized that women held a high place in southern European societies in the 10th and 11th centuries. As a wife, the woman was protected by the setting up of a dowry or decimum. Admittedly, the purpose of this was to protect her against the risk of desertion(拋棄), but in reality its function in the social and family life of the time was much more important. The decimum was the wife\'s right to receive a tenth of all her husband\'s property. The wife had the right to withhold consent(不同意), in all transactions(交易) the husband would make. And more than just a right: the documents show that she enjoyed a real power of decision, equal to that of her husband. In no case do the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and wife.�
The wife shared in the management of her husband\'s personal property, but the opposite was not always true. Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance against husbands who tried to exceed their rights, and on occasion they showed a fine fighting spirit. A case in point is that of Maria Vivas, a Catalan woman of Barcelona(巴塞羅那). Having agreed with her husband Miro to sell a field she had inherited, for the needs of the household, she insisted on co mpensation(補償). None being offered, she succeeded in dragging her husband to the scribe(法律學家) to have a contract ly drawn up assigning her a piece of land from Miro\'s personal inheritance. The unfortunate husband was obliged to agree, as the contract says, 「for the sake of peace.」 Either through the dowry or through being hot�tempered, the Catalan wife knew how to win herself, within the context of the family, a powerful economic position.
31. A decimum was ________.�
A. the wife\'s inheritance from her father
B. a gift of money to the new husband�
C. a written contract�
D. the wife\'s right to receive one�tenth of her husband\'s property�
32. In the society described in the passage, the legal standing(地位) of the wife in marriage was ________.�
A. higher than that of her husband
B. lower than that of her husband�
C. the same as that of her husband
D. higher than that of a single woman�
33. What compensation did Maria Vivas get for the field?�
A. Some of the land Miro had inherited
B. A tenth of Miro\'s land�
C. Money for household expenses
D. Money from Miro\'s inheritance�
34. Could a husband sell his wife\'s inheritance?�
A. No, under no circumstances.
B. Yes, whenever he wished to.�
C. Yes, if she agreed.
D. Yes, if his father in law agreed.�
35. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an effect of the dowry system?�
A. The husband had to share the power of decision in marriage.�
B. The wife was protected from desertion.�
C. The wife gained a powerful economic position.
D. The husband was given control over his wife\'s property. PART TWO

In addition to the numerous hours we 13 hearing other people speak， we may spend several hours listening to the radio or sitting in front of a television set. 14， it is impossible to focus our attention completely on what is said； our mind might be 15 elsewhere. Preoccupation with our personal concerns is 16 reason we don『t always listen carefully. A romance 17 sour or a good grade on a test may take prominence in our mind even as 18 is speaking to us. Furthermore， we are surrounded by all kinds of noises which interfere 19 listening.

Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Many of today『s most trusted sales techniques were invented over a century ago by a young merchant named Eaton in Toronto. When he was young， Eaton worked briefly with his brothers in small-town stores. In 1869， he sep up his own shop in downtown Toronto. He had many competitors， but he was also ambitious and had a plan for success. He offered a unique style of trade， but as was expected， all the other shopkeepers laughed at him， believing he would eventually fail. However， Eaton was not a man to be easily defeated； he came up with a brand new notion of business – 「Goods satisfactory， or money refunded.」 He sold all his goods at fixed prices and only for cash.
With a sharp sense of what the public wanted， he went out of the way to meet their needs. His business grew rapidly. He set up new branches and started mail order service that allowed people to buy from a list of his goods.
Eaton『s list—advertisements of his day—was the first of its kind. It was distributed and read all over the country. It was the only way to access good-quality goods at reasonable prices for people living far away from big cites. It became part of their life. They even called it The Wishing Book. The secret of the list』s success was that Eaton gained the respect of this customers； they trusted him for good prices and quality goods. Probably because he remembered his miserable early days in Ireland， Eaton thought much of the welfare of his employees： better working conditions， shorter weekday hours than his competitors and Saturday afternoons off in the summer. In all this， he was a leader.
21. The best description of Eaton is that ______.
A. he was the richest merchant in Toronto

Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
The threat of a global outbreak （疾病大爆發） of bird flu makes it urgent for the international community to cooperate effectively. Wealthy countries will have to provide hundreds of millions of dollars for the testing and proction of medicines necessary for treating patients suffering from bird flu. Developing countries， particularly in Southeast Asia， where the bird flu virus （病毒） has spread since 1997， must work out special programs so that farmers will not hide sighs of possible outbreaks. In addition， the way such farm birds as chickens and cks are traditionally raised and marketed in the developing world should be changed； there should be more distance between the birds and their keepers. Countries should deal with the disease with joint effort. If one country is inadequately prepared， it will be a threat to every other country.
The potential effects of a national outbreak of bird flu are enormous. Firstly， an outbreak may kill large numbers of people. World Health Organization （WHO） estimates that an outbreak similar to the mild Hong Kong flu of 1968 could kill as many as 7.4 millions people. If it were as dangerous as the 1918 Spanish flu， which killed 50 million， the number would be much higher. Secondly， such an outbreak may cause great financial damage. The latest outbreak of bird flu， which began in December 2003， has cost Southeast Asia more than $10 billion and depressed its GDP by 1.5 percent. If a new outbreak of bird flu were to last for a whole year， $800 billion would be lost.
Despite the 124 human cases and 63 deaths from bird flu since December 2003， the virus remains mainly a disease animals. However， the more animals that die of the disease， the more chances it has of spreading to people. Large numbers of dead or dying birds mean that more people will be exposed to the virus and change into a virus with new characteristics. If the international community works together efficiently， man can surely prevent such a virus and possibly save millions of lives.
26. Faced with the threat of a global outbreak of bird flu， the international community should ________.
A. establish new markets
B. work together effectively
C. stop birds from flying to other countries
D. raise fewer chickens and cks
27. The second paragraph focuses on ______.
A. World Health Organization
B. flus in Hong Kong and Spain
C. the economy of Southeast Asia
D. possible effects of a bird flu outbreak
28. The number of people who have died of bird flu since 2003 is _______.
A. 63 B. 124 C. 7.4 million D. 50 million
29. In the third paragraph， the author is mainly interested in _____.
A. stimulating financial growth B. recing economic damages
C. saving human lives D. protecting bird species
30. The passage deals with all the following aspects bird flu EXCEPT _______.
A. the origin and history of bird flu
B. the importance of international cooperation
C. the possible dangers of a national outbreak
D. the significance of preventing it from spreading
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased. 「We worry more about their safety in the holidays，」 explains one mother from North London. If teenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and potentially dangerous city， they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room！ Well， that『s an extreme picture of the UK today， but many parents are worried about how much freedom they can give their children ring the holidays and at weekends.
Weekends are not the only time to worry！ Newspaper are full of stories about too many school kids going to school by car because their parents do not want them to travel alone on a bus or train. This summer there were more frightening stories of teenagers disappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net. All the Media stories help increase parents fears， but is the UK really so dangerous？
Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier.

I use my mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late.」 Mobiles are not just expensive toys； they help keep young people safe. Most significantly， they help keep young people safe. Most significantly， they make parents feel better. Only one problem is， though， that some young people have been attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.
Young people like going out with friends， but they now need to learn how to get home safely. Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat rooms to make friends， but they， too， need to be careful and never give their personal details to a stranger. Young people today have more opportunities to meet new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did. Now school， television programs and newspapers must help teenagers to enjoy their freedom and to be responsible for their own safety.

There is a clear distinction between one who is supposed to know and another， usually a younger person who is supposed not to know. However， teaching is not necessarily the area of a special group of people， nor should it be looked upon as a technical skill. Teaching can be more like guiding and assisting than forcing information into a blank mind. If you have a certain skill， you should be able to share it with others. You do not have to get a certificate to convey what you know to them or to help them in their attempt to teach themselves. All of us， from the very youngest children to the oldest members of our society， should come to realize our own talent and abilities as teachers. We can share what we know， however little it might be， with others who have need of that knowledge or skill.
