Passage 2
I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunts house,and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America.We were on the bus then.I was crying,and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me.I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.
I do not remember myself crying for this reason again.In fact,I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives.When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see-the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures.The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.
The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism,but the idea did not come to me at once.For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves.I did not quite know what I was or what I should be.Mother remarried,and things became even more complex for me.Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other.I was often sad,and saw no end to “the hard times.”
My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home.I wrote letters,filled out forms,translated at interviews with immigration officers,took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there,and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.
From my experiences I have learned one important rule: almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up,and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right,even though it will not be that easy.

Passage 3
If the population of the earth goes on increasing at its present rate,there will eventually not be enough resources left to sustain life on the planet.By the middle of the 21st century,if present trends continue,we will have used up all the oil that drives our cars,for example.Even if scientists develop new ways of feeding the human race,the crowded conditions on earth will make it necessary for us to look for open space somewhere else.But none of the other planets in our solar system are capable of supporting life at present.One possible solution to the problem,however,has recently been suggested by American scientist,Professor Carl Sagan.
Sagan believes that before the earths resources are completely exhausted it will be possible to change the atmosphere of Venus and to create a new world almost as large as earth itself.The difficult is that Venus is much hotter than the earth and there is only a tiny amount of water there.Sagan proposes that algae organisms that can live in extremely hot or cold atmospheres and at the same time produce oxygen should be bred in condition similar to those on Venus.As soon as this has been done,the algae will be placed in small rockets.Spaceship will then fly to Venus and fire the rockets into the atmosphere .In a fairly short time,the algae will break down the carbon dioxide into oxygen and carbon.
When the algae have done their work,the atmosphere will become cooler,but before man can set foot on Venus it will be necessary for the oxygen to produce rain.The surface of the planet will still be too hot for man to land on it but the rain will eventually fall and in a few years something like earth will be reproduced on Venus.
()11.In the long run,the most insoluble problem caused by population growth on earth will probably be the lack of.
A.food
B.oil
C.space
D.resources
()12.Carl Sagan believes that Venus might be colonized from earth because.
A.it might be possible to change its atmosphere
B.its atmosphere is the same as the earths
C.there is a good supply of water on Venus
D.the days on Venus are long enough
()13.On Venus there is a lot of.
A.water B.carbon dioxide
C.carbon monoxideD.oxygen
()14.Algae are plants that can.
A.live in very hot temperatures
B.live in very cold temperatures
C.manufacture oxygen
D.all of the above
()15.Man can land on Venus only when.
A.the algae have done their work
B.the atmosphere becomes cooler
C.there is oxygen
D.it rains there
Passage 4
Imagine waking up and finding the value of your assets has been halved.No,youre not an investor in one of those hedge funds that failed completely.With the dollar slumping to a 26year low against the pound,alreadyexpensive London has become quite unaffordable.A coffee at Starbucks,just as unavoidable in England as it is in the United States,runs about $8.
The once allpowerful dollar isnt doing a Titanic against just the pound.It is sitting at a record low against the euro and at a 30year low against the Canadian dollar.Even the Argentine peso and Brazilian real are thriving against the dollar.
The weak dollar is a source of humiliation,for a nations selfesteem rests in part on the strength of its currency.Its also a potential economic problem,since a declining dollar makes imported food more expensive and exerts upward pressure on interest rates.And yet there are substantial sectors of the vast U.S.economy from giant companies like CocaCola to momandpop restaurant operators in Miami for which the weak dollar is most excellent news.
Many Europeans may view the U.S.as an arrogant superpower that has become hostile to foreigners.But nothing makes people think more warmly of the U.S.than a weak dollar.Through April,the total number of tourists was up 6.8 percent from last year.Should the trend continue,the number of tourists this year will finally top the 2000 peak. Many Europeans now apparently view the U.S.the way many Americans view Mexicoas a cheap place to vacation,shop and party,all while ignoring the fact that the poorer locals cant afford to join the merrymaking.
The money tourists spend helps decrease our chronic trade deficit.So do exports,which thanks in part to the weak dollar,soared 11 percent between May 2006 and May 2007.For first five months of 2007,the trade deficit actually fell 7 percent from 2006.
If you own shares in large American corporations,youre a winner in the weakdollar gamble.Last week CocaColas stick bubbled to a fiveyear high after it reported a fantastic quarter.Foreign sales accounted for 65 percent of Cokes beverage business.Other American companies profiting from this trend including McDonalds and IBM.
American tourists,however,shouldnt expect any relief soon.The dollar lost strength, the break up slowly,and then all at once.And currencies dont turn on a dime.So if you want to avoid the pain inflicted by the increasingly pathetic dollar,cancel that summer vacation to England and look to New England.There,the dollar is still treated with a little respect.
()16.Why do Americans feel humiliated?
A.Their economy is plunging.
B.They cant afford trips to Europe.
C.Their currency has slumped.
D.They have lost half of their assets.
()17.How does the current dollar affect the life of ordinary Americans?
A.They have to cancel their vacations in New England.
B.They find it unaffordable to dine in momandpop restaurants.
C.They have to spend more money when buying imported goods.
D.They might lose their jobs due to potential economic problems.
()18.How do many Europeans feel about the U.S. with the devalued dollar?
A.They feel contemptuous of it.
B.They are sympathetic with it.
C.They regard it as a superpower on the decline.
D.They think of it as a good tourist destination.
()19.What is the authors advice to Americans?
A.They treat the dollar with a little respect.
B.They try to win in the weakdollar gamble.
C.They vacation at home rather than abroad.
D.They treasure their marriages all the more.
()20.What does the author imply by saying “currencies dont turn on a dime” (Line 2,Paragraph 7)?
A.The dollars value will not increase in the short term.
B.The value of a dollar will not be reduced to a dime.
C.The dollars value will drop,but within a small margin.
D.Few Americans will change dollars into other currencies.
