PASSAGE 3

Promptness is important in American business, academic, and social settings. The importance of punctuality is taug_ ht to young children in school. Tardy slops and the use of bells sig_ nal to the child that punctuality and time itself are to be respected. People who keep appointments are considered dependable. If people are late to job interviews, appointments, or classes, they are often vie_ wed as unreliable and irresponsible. In the business world, "time is money" and companies may fine their executives for tardiness to busi_ ness meetings. Of course, it is not always possible to be punctual. Social and business etiquette also provides rules for late arrivals. Calling on the telephone if one is going to be more than a few minute_ s late for schedule appointments is considered polite and is often ex_ pected. Keeping a date of a friend waiting beyond ten to twenty minute_ s is considered rude. On the other hand, arriving thirty minutes late to some parties is acceptable. Respecting deadlines is also important in academic and professional ci_ rcles. It is expected that deadlines for class assignments or business reports will be met. Students who hand in assignments late may be surp_ rised to find that the professor will lower their grades or even refus_ e to grade their work. Whether it is a question of arriving on time or of meeting a deadline, people are culturally conditioned to regulate t_ ime。

PASSAGE 4

Urban life has always involved a balancing of opportunities and rewards against dangers and stress; its motivating force is, in the broadest s_ ense, money. Opportunities to make money mean competition and competit_ ion is stressful; it is often at its most intense in the largest cities , where opportunities are greatest. The presence of huge numbers of pe_ ople inevitable involves more conflict, more traveling, the overloading of public services and exposure to those deviants and criminals who are drawn to the rich pickings of great cities. Crime has always flourished in the relative anonymity of urban life, but today's ease of movement makes its control more difficult than ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of communities. City dwellers may become trapped in their homes by the fear of crime around them. As a defense against these developments city dwellers tend to use vari_ ous strategies to try and reduce the pressures upon themselves: contac_ ts with other people are generally made brief and impersonal; doors are kept locked; telephone numbers may be ex-directory; journeys outside th_ e home are usually hurried, rather than a source of pleasure. There are other strategies too, which are positively harmful to the individual; f_ or example, reducing awareness through drugs or alcohol. Furthermore, a_ ll these defensive forms of behavior are harmful to society in general; they cause widespread loneliness and destroy the community's concern for its members. Lack of informal social contact and indifference to the mi_ sfortunes of others, if they are not personally known to oneself, are a_ mongst the major causes of urban crime。

A. people do not communicate with their neighbors

B. Criminals are difficult to trace in large population

C. People feel anonymous there

D. The trappings of success are attractive to criminals

38. According to the article, what is the worst problem facing people living in cities?

A. crime

B. finding somewhere to live

C. loneliness

D. drugs and alcoholism

39. The biggest incentive to live in a city is_______

A. rewards

B. stress

C. competition

D. money

40. According to the author, crime is caused by several factors, one of which is _____

A. social isolation

PASSAGE 6


He saw the station in a new light. Here was a mass of human beings, some black, some white, and some brown like himself. Here they mixed with one another, yet each mistrusted the other with an unnatural fear. Each treated the other with suspicion, each move in a narrow, haunted pattern of its own manufacture. One must challenge these things the speaker had said in one's own way. Yet how in one's way? How was one to challenge? Slowly it dawned upon him. Here was his chance, the bench. The railway bench with the legend "Europeans Only" neatly painted on it in white. For one moment it symbolized all the challenge to his rights as a man. There it stood, a perfectly ordinary wooden railway bench, like hundreds of thousands of others in South Africa. That bench, now had concentrated in it all the evils of system, he could not understand. It was the obstacle to himself and humanity. If he sat on it he was a human in a human society. He almost had visions of fighting the pernicious system if only he sat on that bench. Here was his chance. He, Karlie, would challenge。

46. What is this passage about? 47. Who is the main character in the passage? 48. Is he a black person? 49. Where is he? 50. What is he going to do?

Engineeing software technology is constantly evolving, driving the marketplace, allowing companies to bring better products to market faster and at lower cost. Each new software release provides breakthroughs that allow companies to rely more on virtual product development and less on hours of laboratory, build-and-break studies. What used to take companies months or even years, costing a lot to design and build, now can be done in just weeks without great expense. This evolution is a direct result of the changing role of design analysis and optimisation software. Once thought of as "an extra step", today, this software is being applied throughout the product development process, testing ideas early in the development stage. ACME, Inc. develops the software tools that allow companies to build better, safer and more reliable products faster than ever before。
