Passage One
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.
Scientists are trying to make the deserts into good land again. They want to bring water into desserts so that people can live and grow food. Even so,more and more of the earth is becoming desert all the time.
1
Why? Scientists think that people make deserts. People are doing bad things to the earth.
Some places on the earth do not get very much rain.Yet,they still do not become deserts.This is because there are some small green plants growing there.Plants help keep water in the earth.Plants do not let the wind blow the dirt away.Without plants,the land can become a desert much more easily.
A man decides to make a farm in a very dry place.He digs in the earth and takes away the grass and plants that are already growing on the dry land.
He makes a farm.He puts plants in rows.The sun is very hot.It makes the land even drier.When the rain comes,it runs between the rows of plants.It washes the good dirt away.When the wind comes, it blows between the rows of the plants.It blows the good dirt away.Soon the land is not good enough for a farm any more.The man lets his animals eat all the plants on it.Now the land does not have any plants on it.The sun and wind dry the land and all of the good dirt away.Now the land is a desert. 1.A desert is probably .

Passage Two
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.
There are some people who actually enjoy work--in fact,they love to work. They spend many extra hours on the job each work and often take work home with them. These workaholics are as addicted to their jobs as other people are to drugs or alcohol.
In some city centers, workaholism is so common that people do not consider it unusual. they accept the lifestyle as normal.
Workaholism can be a serious problem. Because true workaholics would rather work than do anything else, they probably don’t know how to relax; that is ,they might not enjoy movies,sports,or other types of entertainment. Most of all, they hate to sit and do nothing. The lives of workaholics are usually stressful,and this stress can cause health problems. In addition, typical workaholics don’t pay much attention to their families. They spend little time with their children,and marriages may end.
Is workaholism always dangerous? Perhaps not.There are ,certainly,people who work well under stress.Some studies show that many workaholics have great energy and interest in life.Their work so pleasurable that they are actually very happy. For most workaholics,work and entertainment are the same thing. Their jobs provide them with a challenge; this keeps them busy and creative. Other people retire from work at age sixty-five,but workaholics usually prefer not to quit.They are still interested in work-and
3
life-in their eighties and nineties.
Perhaps some people are forced to work, but their addiction to work seems to be a safe-even an advantageous-one.
6.The word “workaholics” in the first paragraph refers to those . A.who are always under stress and don’t know how to get rid of it B.who do not have a good relationship with their children and wives C.who don’t know how to enjoy movies or do sports in their spare time D.who spend most of their time working and have no time in other things 7.A problem workaholism may cause is that .

Passage Three
4
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.
Old people are always saying that the young are not what they were. The same comment is made from generation to generation and it is always true. It has never been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to spend and enjoy more freedom. They grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their parents. They think more for themselves and do not accept the ideas of the elders. Events which the older generation remember vividly are nothing more than past history.
The old always assume that they know best for the simple reason that they have been around a bit longer. They don’t like to feel that their values are being questioned or threatened. And this is precisely what the young are doing. They are questioning the assumptions of their elders and disturbing their complacency. Who said that human differences can best be solved through conventional politics or by violent means? Why have the older generation so often used violence to solve their problems? Why are they so unhappy and guilty in their personal lives? Can anything be right with the rat-race? Haven’t the old lost touch with all that is important in life?
Traditionally, the young have turned to their elders for guidance. Today, the situation might be reversed. The old-if they are prepared to admit it-could learn a thing or two from their children.One of the biggest lessons they learn is that enjoyment is not “sinful”. It is surely not wrong to live in the present rather than in the past or future. 11.According to the passage,the young today . A.are forced to remember the old events C.have more money and freedom
B.are more dependent on family D.have more restrictions and problems
12.It can be inferred from the passage that . A.the differences between the young and the old are the greatest B.today the old complain more about the young’s behaviors C.the young are better educated and know more
5
D.the old remember many old events 13.The young can’t understand . A.why they should remember those old events B.why their parents are so progressive of them C.why they should receive better education
D.why the old often resort to violence or war to solve problems
14.Which of the following statements is the reason why the old always assume they know best?
A.they are richer than the young B.they are happier than the young C.they have better memory than the young D.they have lived longer than the young
15.According to the passage, what the old can learn from the young is that . A.one has reason to enjoy life
B.conventional politics is going out the way C.receiving better education is very important D.happiness is the most important thing in life
Passage Four
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.
Human wants seem endless. When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure boats dance into view.
The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants ,another level appears. The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a
6
second level of wants appears:clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.
By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching” level. While the other levels mean physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety and transportation of the human body, this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care and entertainment. Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.
On the fourth level, a greater percentage of consumers spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?
A fifth level probably would be wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime, and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our garages, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health,safety and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.
16.According to the passage, man will begin to think about such needs as housing and clothing only when _______ A. he has saved up enough money
B. he has grown dissatisfied with his simple shelter C. he has satisfied his hunger D. he has learned to build houses
17. It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World War II most Americans
7
______. A. were very rich B. lived in poverty
C. had the good things on the first three levels D. didn’t own automobiles
18.All of the following EXCEPT are related to “physical satisfactions”. A. a successful career C. a good service
B. a cozy home D. a family car
19. The main concern of man on the fourth level is______. A. the more goods the better
B. the more mental satisfaction the better C. the more “luxury” items the better D. the more earnings the better
20. The author is inclined to think that a fifth level______. A. would be little better than the fourth level B. may be a lot more desirable than the first four C. can be the last and most satisfying level
D. will become attainable if the government takes actions
