Passage One

The contractor is not entitled to receive payment in full until the work is satisfactorily completed.

That work must be completed to the satisfaction of the employer, or his representatives, does not give

the employer the right to demand an unusually high standard of quality throughout the works, in the

absence of a prior express agreement. Otherwise the employer might be able to postpone indefinitely his

liability to pay for the works. The employer is normally only entitled to expect a standard of work that

would be regarded as reasonable by the competent persons with considerable experience in the class of

work covered by the particular contract. The detailed requirements of the specification will have a

considerable bearing on these matters.

21. The civil engineering work must be completed to the satisfaction of （ B ）

A. the contractor

B. the promoter or his representative

C. the auditor

D. the workers

22. It does not give the employer the right to demand （ D ）

C. postpone indefinitely D. postpone unjustly

24. The employer is normally only entitled to expect a standard of work would be regarded as

reasonable by （ C ）

A. employers B. top persons

C. competent persons D. all the participants

Passage Two

A civil engineer must understand different stresses the structure withstands when it is in use.

Altogether, three forces can act on a structure: vertical--those that act up or down; horizontal—those that

act sideway; and those that act upon it with a rotating or turning motion. Forces that act at an angle are

combination of horizontal and vertical forces. Since the structures designed by civil engineers are

intended to be stationary or stable, these forces must be kept in balance. The vertical forces, for example,

must be equal to each other. If a beam supports a load above, the beam itself must have sufficient

strength to counterbalance that weight. The horizontal forces must also equal each other so that there is

not too much thrust either to the right or to the left. And forces that might pull the structure around must

be countered with forces that pull in the opposite direction.

25. Horizontal forces （ B ）

A. act up or down

B. act sideways

C. act upon it with rotating or turning motion

D. in a round way

26. Forces acting at an angle are combination of （ A ）

A. horizontal and vertical forces

B. horizontal and rotating forces

C. turning and vertical forces

D. vertical and rotating forces

27. The horizontal forces must equal each other so that （ D ）

A. there is not too much thrust either up or down

B. there is not too much thrust either rotating or turning

C. it can work in a reasonable way

D. there is not too much thrust either to the right or to the left

28. Which of the following is tree? （ B ）

A. Three forces acting on a structure need not be kept in balance

B. Three forces acting on a structure must be kept in balance

C. Three forces acting on a structure must be less

D. Three forces acting on a structure must be more

Passage Three
