Passage Two
By the time she got the box open, Nancy was so excited that she could hardly contain herself. Eagerly she removed the cotton surrounding the small object inside the box, and held it up to the light. It glittered and sparkled – made alive by the bright sunlight pouring through the large picture window. Nancy turned the object slowly in her hands, first this way and then that way. It continued to sparkle and shine as if it had a light of its own. She gave a little squeal of delight. Her diamond engagement ring had been found and returned to her, just as that woman on the phone had promised.
For two weeks, Nancy had almost become a nervous wreck after losing the ring on the subway. She had placed ads in the newspaper and over the radio, offering a reward for the return
of the ring. And, she had almost given up hope when the telephone call came.
A kind, elderly female voice informed her that she had found the ring wedged in a seat cushion. She had called, she said, to ascertain the exact address and had promised to return the ring by insured mail the next day. And then she had added sweetly: “There?s no need top send a reward either. I lost my engagement ring once when I was young, and some kind, unknown person returned it to me the next day. I feel I?m only paying back an old debt of gratitude.”
Nancy had thanked the finder profusely and asked her name, but the other woman had said that it wasn?t important. And, now, here was the ring once again in her hand. She slipped it once again on her finger and breathed a huge sigh of relief.

Passage Three
In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps firefighters. The computer contains information about every one of the 350,000 street addresses in the city. When a firefighter answers a call, the computer gives him information about the burning building. The computer can give the location of the burning and its size, type and content.

With this information the firefighters can take special care to find these sick persons and remove them quickly and safely.
The speed of a computer is amazing. Within 2 or 3 seconds after a call is received, the computer provides necessary information for the firefighters. The information is then sent to them by radio from the computer center in the city hall.
The Kansas City computer system also contains a medical record of each of the city?s 900 firefighters. This kind of information is especially useful when a firefighter in injured. With this medical information doctors of a hospital can treat the injured firefighter more quickly and easily. The firefighters themselves greatly appreciate the help from the computer.

A. The computer is of some use in putting out fires.
B. The computer is of great use in finding invalids.
C. The computer is of great use in rescuing injured firefighters.

Passage One
For many years scientists believed that the chimpanzee was the most intelligent animal in the world – not including human beings. But now they are not so sure. Recently they have learned that dolphins are very intelligent too – perhaps more intelligent than chimpanzees.
Many people think that dolphins are fish, but this is not true. Dolphins are different from fish in many important ways. They are mammals. They are warm-blooded, and they cannot stay underwater all the time like fish. They breathe air. They have to come to the surface of the water and take in air every few minutes.
Dolphins live in groups, or schools. Schools of dolphins travel and catch fish together. They use a kind of language to communicate within the group. Scientists do not understand the language, but they know that dolphins can talk to each other and send messages underwater.
Dolphins are very friendly to people, and they are helpful too. A few dolphins have already been trained to do useful things. They carry messages quickly between ships, they find lost objects in the ocean, and they carry equipment underwater to collect information for scientists. In the future dolphins could become the most useful animals in the world.
71. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Intelligent animals.

Passage Two
Package holidays, covering a two weeks?stay in an attractive location are increasingly popular, because they offer an inclusive price with few extras. Once you get to the airport, it is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination. Excursions, local entertainment, swimming, sunbathing, skiing – you name it ---- it?s all laid on for you. There is, in fact, no reason
for you to bother to arrange anything yourselves. You make friends and have a good time, but there is very little chance that you will really get to know the local people. This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost your entire time traveling. Of course, there are carefully scheduled stops for you to visit historic buildings and monuments, but you will probably be allowed only a brief stay overnight in some famous city, with a polite reminder to be up and breakfasted early in time for the coach next morning. You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient, but time is always at your elbow. There is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to spend your holiday with a group of people you have never met before, may not like and have no reasonable excuse for getting away from. As against this, it can be argued that for many people, particularly the lonely or elderly, the feeling of belonging to a group, although for a short period on holiday, is an added bonus. They can sit safely back in their seats and watch the world go by.
76. When you go on a package holiday _____
A. you don?t have to arrange anything yourself.
B. you don?t have to pay for any extra activities.
C. you don?t have to follow the tour schedules.
D. you don?t have to travel in an organized group.
77. People going on package holidays _____
A. are unable to amuse themselves.
B. expect to be amused by tour operators.
C. find most of their interests catered for
D. are able to make friends with lots of local people.
78. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. You?re constantly on the move when you are on a coach tour.
B. A coach tour is always exhausting.
C. You don?t get enough sleep on a coach tour.
D. You get no chance to visit historic buildings or monuments in famous cities on a coach tour.
79. …Time is always at your elbow.? This means _____
A. you can take your time visiting a place.
B. you have to spend a lot of time visiting a place.
C. your time is always limited when visiting a place.
D. there is always no time for you to visit any place.
80. In spite of its disadvantages, spending a holiday with a group is good particularly for _____
A. schoolboys and schoolgirls.
B. the lonely or elderly people.
C. newly married young couples.
D. those who always travel by themselves.
Passage Three
Banking began thousands of years ago in very early civilizations. The first bankers were money-changers. They took foreign money from travelers and gave them local coins.

In the next century, British bankers were the first people to make paper money. They gave their customers paper notes in exchange for their gold and silver. People liked the paper bank notes because they were easy to carry. After a while, everyone accepted bank notes as money.

Bill was in the kitchen cooking. Looking at the messy kitchen, I shouted, “Why do you have to be so messy?” Bill looked hurt, “What?” I sighed and left for the airport. On my last flight, an elderly couple had the seats in my section. They held hands during takeoff. Later I caught them looking into each other’S eyes. Something about that look was familiar. Then I realized: it was the look Bill and I had worn in our wedding photographs. I couldn’t resist asking them about the secret of their long-lasting marriage. “Have fun together”，the man said, “and never take each other for granted.” Her words circled in my head long after we landed. Bill wasn’t perfect. But then, was I? I kept complaining about his messiness and forgot his kindness, his ability to see the bright side of every situation 一qualities that ran so much deeper, the reasons I had married him in the first place. I took out my cell phone and called Bill. “I miss you already.” I said. “I miss you too, Kim，” he said. As soon as my flights were over, I rushed home. Bill met me at the door. “I have a surprise for you.” he said and led me into the kitchen. I glanced around the room. He really had worked hard. In spite of the fingerprints on that microwave door, I could see our reflection in it: my husband and I, our smiles glowing with love for each other, just like in our wedding photos. 1.
