Part 5 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)
(每小题:分)
Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the
four choices marked A, B, C and D.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
In 1913, the United States government introduced a bold, new nickel. James Earle Fraser
said his goal was to design a coin that would be "truly American." In his search for
symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a
Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect
unity of theme."
Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913. A single coining
press at the Philadelphia Mint (造币厂) started turning out the nickels at the rate of
120 a minute. But after the first examples were introduced, The New York Times said they
were "bad."
Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters (造假币的人). But the most serious complaint about the nickel had to do with its inability
to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would
remove the date and the words Five Cents "beyond understanding."
In 1938, the Government staged a competition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson.
According to a news item of the day, the Department of Indian Affairs didn't receive
a single complaint from Native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem
to mind either.
1. In the eyes of Fraser, a __________ is the most distinctive.
A. nickel
B. buffalo
C. Native American
D. unity of theme
2. In the second sentence, Paragraph 2, the word "press" means ________.
A. publication
B. newspaper
C. machine
D. the act of pushing down
3. The design of a buffalo was modified ________.
A. because it was not able to stand heavy use
B. because the words Five Cents were "beyond understanding"
7 / 12
. .
C. because the coin couldn't be pressed by the Philadelphia Mint
D. because the words were too high on the coin
4. According to one collectors' magazine using a Native American and a buffalo was
________.
A. a good idea
B. a bad idea
C. a perfect idea
D. a forced idea
5. It seemed that the new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson ________.
A. won much praise from collectors
B. caused strong protests from American Indians
C. was OK both to the collectors and American Indians
D. was praised both by the collectors and American Indians
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
Time passed and my cards sold well. My enthusiasm for the greeting card business grew
quickly. All along, I had been drawing fantasy art: monsters, dragons, castles, etc.
With the birth of my first son in 1980, the content of my work went through a pretty
dramatic change.
Fantasy went out of the window, and I began to illustrate reality.
In the spring of 1983, we, The Mary Engelbreit Greeting Card Company, took our 12 little
designs to New York to exhibit them at a national card show.
I remember how big the show was. I just couldn't get over it. I had no idea there were
so many different card companies. And it was exciting because our 12 little cards were
getting a lot of attention in that huge place!
I've been told one of the reasons we had so much success at that show is because my card
style was different than anything else at the market. I typically draw complicated
details and use deep colors and funny or meaningful quotations.
By 1985, many greeting card publishers started noticing my art, and two of them approached
me with licensing contracts.
I have always believed if you choose a job you love, you'll never work a day in your
life. If you ask about the mystery of my success, all I can say is this: to imagine is
everything!
6. Before the birth of her first son, Mary Engelbreit's cards focused on ________.
8 / 12
. .
A. reality
B. daily life
C. fantasy
D. dragons
7. The New York show was so big that Engelbreit ________.
A. couldn't walk through it
B. couldn't believe it
C. couldn't stay to the end of it
D. couldn't understand it
8. Engelbreit's cards were successful because ________.
A. they were distinctive in style
B. they had a thank-you sentence
C. they had complicated details
D. they were rich in color
9. A couple of greeting card companies ________.
A. presented Engelbreit with contracts
B. asked Engelbreit to make her cards more distinctive
C. wanted Engelbreit to use more meaningful quotations
D. thought her cards were to complicated
10. According to Mary Engelbreit, the key to success is ________.
A. devotion
B. opportunity
C. good luck
D. imagination
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.
In the early days of sea travel, seamen on long voyages lived exclusively on salted meat
and biscuits. Many of them died of scurvy (坏血病), a blood disease which causes swollen
gums, livid (铅色的) white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion. On one occasion,
in 1535, an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew seriously ill. The men's
lives were saved by Iroquois Indians (易洛魁印第安人) who gave them vegetable leaves
to eat. Gradually it came to be realized that scurvy was caused by something lacking
in the sailors' diet. Captain Cook, on his long voyages of discovery to Australia and
New Zealand, established the fact that scurvy could be warded off by the giving fresh
fruit to the sailors.
Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in
serious diseases if certain important elements are missing. These elements are called
"vitamins". Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to
identify them, A, B, C, D, and so on. Different diseases are associated with a lack of
particular vitamins. Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most
plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increase our chances of catching
9 / 12
. .
colds.
The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet,
including a variety of fruit and green vegetables. It is only when people try to live
on a very restricted diet, say, during the extended periods of religious fasting (斋戒), or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to supply the missing vitamins.
11. Which of the following happens because of scurvy?
A. People become hungry.
B. People lose blood.
C. People become livid.
D. People feel pain in their gums.
12. How would the sailors ward off scurvy on long trips?
A. They took fresh fruit with them.
B. They stopped in places to relax.
C. They often found Indians to help.
D. They ate vegetable leaves regularly.
13. Which vitamin helps protect us against colds?
A. Vitamin A.
B. Vitamin B.
C. Vitamin C.
D. Vitamin D.
14. What supplies all the vitamins we need to be healthy?
A. Any one of the different sorts of green vegetables.
B. Diets like those taken by religious people.
C. Certain important elements known by letters.
D. Mixed diets with different fruits and vegetables.
15. When should people take vitamins?
A. When wanting to be healthy.
B. When joining a religion.
C. When dieting to lose weight.
D. When protecting against sickness.

Part 6 Reading Comprehension (Short Answer Questions)
(每小题:分)
Directions: Read the following passage carefully and give brief answers to the questions.
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
In France, enthusiasm for the American cause was high. In May 1776, France began providing
aid to the colonies, sending 14 ships with war supplies to America. In fact, most of
the guns used by the American armies came from France. After Britain's defeat at Saratoga,
France saw an opportunity to seriously weaken its ancient enemy and correct the balance
of power that had been upset by the Seven Years' War (the French and Indian War). On
February 6, 1778, America and France signed a declaration of friendship and commerce,
in which France recognized America and offered trade deals. They also signed a statement,
which said that if France entered the war, neither country would lay down its arms until
America won its independence, that neither would make peace with Britain without the
agreement of the other, and that each promised to protect the other's possessions in
America. This was the only two-side defense partnership signed by the United States until
1949.
The Franco-American alliance soon broadened the conflict. In June 1778 British ships
fired on French vessels, and the two countries went to war. In 1779 Spain, hoping to
capture territories taken by Britain in the Seven Years' War, entered the conflict on
the side of France, but not as an ally of the Americans. In 1780 Britain declared war
on the Dutch, who had continued to trade with the Americans. The combination of these
European powers, with France in the lead, was a far greater danger to Britain than the
American colonies standing alone.
1. When did France begin to provide aid to the American colonies?
11 / 12
. .
2. What did the declaration of friendship and commerce say about France?
3. Besides American independence, under what condition would either France or America
create peace with Britain?
4. What was one of the results of the alliance between France and America?
5. Why did Spain enter the conflict?
