Part I Reading Comprehesion（2×20=40）
Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by
some questions or unfinished 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 the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Questions 1 to 5 are base on the following passage:
Shortly before powerful round the world emitting its historic beepbeep, a news item
in Moscow’s newspapers proclaimed the installation of the Soviet capital’s first automatic
shoeshine machine. A squirt(喷射) of polish fell on the customer’s shoe and two rough
brushes rotated to apply a shine, all for fifty kopecks, or five cents. The automatic device
was considered something of a wonder by all who came to see it. Now there are automatic
dispensers for single cigarettes and for soda water in the Soviet Union, and the newspaper
Soviet Russian promises even greater wonders to come.
Invention of such automatic equipment is encouraged in Russia, but the rewards are
small. A committee on inventions and discoveries is empowered to issue a certificate of
invention that certifies its recipient was the first to invent that item. In addition to the title
“inventor,” the Russian receives a sum of money. The amount varies with the importance
of his development, and he gets it only if and when a ministry or a regional economic
council accepts the device for use in a factory or enterprise. No royalties(专利权税)are
paid while invention is in use-only the flat and final sum: thus the return for an invention
seldom amounts to more than six thousand rubles, or six hundred dollars. The explanation
for this policy is that every citizen has a duty to use his creative talents for the good of the
State.

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of
language is a mystery. All we know is that men unlike animals, somehow invented certain
sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could upon certain
signs, called letters, which could upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined
to represent these 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 then, lies in their associations-the things they bring up
before our minds. Words become filled with meanings for us by experience; and the longer
we lie, 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 to us increases.
Great writers are those who not only have great thought 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.
6.The origin of language is .
A. an old story handed down from the past
B. a matter that is hidden or secret
