His passport was taken from him. He tried to explain the problem, but no one believed him. He was sent to prison for six days. When he came out, he went immediately to the Fisher bank.

" "But my name is Jackson Frank, not Frank Jackson. " "Oh, that' s all right, sir. It was in our books under the letter 'J', but it's your money. "The clerk laughed, "A human mistake, sir! We're all human beings, aren't we? And so we all make mistakes. A family name like Frank sounds strange to me. " Mr Frank was silent. He really wanted to hit somebody.

Passage 2 To most Africans, tribalism simply means very strong loyalty to one's ethnic group. It is a force that can be both good and bad. By definition tribalism means sharing among members of the extended family. It makes sure that a person is taken care of by his own group. To give a job to a fellow tribesman is not wrong; it is an obligation. Similarly, for a politician or military leader it is considered good common sense to choose his closest adviser from people of his own tribe. This ensures security, continuity, authority. Tribal loyalty may mean a quick promotion--from sergeant to captain, from clerk to manager--within a very short time. Modern African politicians publicly speak out against tribal divisions. Yet it remains perhaps the most powerful force in day - to - day African life. As evidence of tribalism, in 1977 in Kenya, president Jomo Kenyatta's tribe controlled business and politics. Eight of the 21 cabinet posts, including the most important four were filled by Kikuyus. In Uganda in the same year, the president's small Kakwa tribe filled almost all the highest government and military positions! In Agola, Ethiopia, and Nigeria, the fighting in the past ten years can be partly explained by disagreements among tribes.
1. What is the definition of tribalism?

D.People have the same religious belief.

3. In paragraph 2 ," the most important four" refers to ______.

Passage 3 When a new movement in Art attains a certain vogue, it is advisable to find out what its advocates are aiming at, for, however far - fetched and unreasonable their contents may seem today, it is possible that in years to come they may be regarded as normal, With regard to Futurist poetry, however, the case is rather difficult, for whatever Futurist poetry may be--even admitting that the theory on which it is based may be right--it can hardly be classed as Literature. This, in brief, is what the Futurist says for a century ,past conditions of life have been continually speeding up, till now we live in a world of noise and violence and speed. Consequently, our feelings, thoughts and emotions have undergone a corresponding change. This speeding up of life, says the Futurist, requires a new form of expressions. We must speed up our literature too, if we want to interpret modem stress. We must pour out a cataract of essential words, unhampered by stops, or qualifying adjectives, or finite verbs. Instead of describing sounds we must make up words that imitate them; we must use many sizes of type and different colored inks on the same page, and shorten or lengthen words at will. Certainly their descriptions of battles are vividly chaotic. But it is a little disconcerting to read in the explanatory notes that a certain line describes a fight between a Turkish and a Bulgarian officer on a bridge off which they both fall into the river and then to find that the line consists of the noise of their falling are the weights of the officers. "Pluff! Pulff! A hundred and eighty five kilo-grams. This, though it fulfills the laws and requirements of Futurist poetry can hardly be classed as Literature. All the same, no thinking man can refuse to accept their first proposition that a great change in our emotional life calls for a change of expression. The whole question is really this : how we essentially changed?

Passage 2
1. As more and more people lose their jobs, now is perhaps the time to consider the experience of unemployment. What are the first feelings? Well, losing a job, or not being able to find one, almost always brings unwelcome changes. If you've lost a job, the first feeling is often one of shock. As well as the loss of income, many people find the whole routine of their life is shattered, their contact with other people reduced, their ambitions halted and their identity as a worker removed. At first there may be good feelings too--a new and better job is just around the corner--it' s nice to be able to lie in bed in the morning or spend more time with the children; have more time to think. But, unless a better job does turn up, the chances are the days start getting longer and time becomes harder to fill. Many people pass through periods of difficulty in sleeping and eating. They feel irritable and depressed, often isolated and lonely. Despite all these problems though, unemployment can be a chance for a fresh start. You can discover that it provides an opportunity to sort out or rethink what you want from life and how best you can get it. You can use the time to plan how to find a new job, learn a new skill, develop your hobbies or see if you can run your own business.What is the writer's main message in the passage?
A.Unemployment brings downward changes in people's lives.
B.One should try to make the best of unemployment.
C.Many people have no problems with unemployment.
D.Unemployment results in negative psychological effects.
1. The gap in attitudes between the older and younger generations is well known. But why does the gap exist? Is it, as some believe, because people become more conservative as they age? Or is it simply that today's younger generation has adopted attitudes that differ from those of their elders? One researcher found that people's ideas do change somewhat as they grow older, but they don't change much. Attitudes formed in the late teens and early twenties are pretty stable. Thus the generation gap seems to result from each generation's entering adulthood with different attitudes.Which is NOT true according to the passage?
A.Generation gap is a result of different attitudes.
B.People become far more conservative as they grow older.
C.Attitudes formed in the early twenties do not change easily.
D.Attitudes of the younger generation are different from those of their elders.
1. Daily newspaper has an editorial page. Here opinion is expressed on events and personalities in the news. But editorial judgment is so persuasively presented that many people accept these opinions as facts. Good journalists uphold a code of ethics which distinguishes between news and editorial opinion.This code holds that in an editorial column the publisher is entitled to advocate any cause he chooses. It is understood that there he is speaking as a partisan and may express any view he desires. Because a modern newspaper is so expensive to produce and so costly to establish, newspapers have increasingly become big business organizations. Although there are exceptions, these large newspapers tend to reflect the views of their owners in their editorials on economic and political matters. In the news columns, however, the complete and unbiased facts should be reported. The better metropolitan newspapers and the great press associations usually can be relied on to keep their news impartial. But the less ethical publications often deliberately "color" the news to favor or oppose certain group or movements.The author states that no modern newspaper_____.

Section B Short Answer Questions DirectionsIn this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words). Our world is filled with sounds we never hear. The human auditory(听觉的) range is limited to begin with: if we could hear sounds lower than 20 vibrations per second, we would be driven mad by the rumblings and creakings of our muscles, intestines and heartbeats; every step we take would sound like an explosion. But even with our auditory range we select, focus, pay attention to a few sounds and blot out the rest. We are so assaulted(困扰) by sound that we continually "rum off". But in the process we shut out the glorious symphony(交响乐) of sound in which the living world is bathed. The sound-tormented city dweller who habitually "turns off his audio" loses a dimension of social reality. Some people, for example, possess the ability to enter a crowded room and from the sounds encountered know immediately the mood, pace and direction of the group assembled. Everything becomes more real when heard as well as seen. It is, in fact, quite hard really to know a person by sight alone, without hearing his voice. And it is not just the sound of the voice that informs. Even the rhythm of footsteps reveals age and variations of mood--delight, depression, anger, joy. Hearing can also soothe and comfort. The snapping of logs in the fireplace, the gossipy whisper of a broom, the inquisitive wheeze of a drawer opening--all are savored sounds that make us feel at home. In a well-loved home, every chair produced a different, recognizable creak, every window a different click, groan or squeak. The kitchen by itself is a source of many pleasing sounds. Every place, every event has a sound dimension. The sense of hearing can perhaps be restored to modern man if he better understands its worth and how it works. Most people would be surprised to discover how far the sense can be pushed by cultivation. At a friend' s house recently, my wife opened her purse and some coins spilled out, one after another, onto the floor. "Three quarters, two dimes, a nickels and three pennies," said our host as he came in from the next room. And as an after thought : "One of the quarters is silver. " He was right, down to the last penny. "How did you do it?" we asked. "" Try it yourself. " he said. We did, and with a little practice we found it easy. Curiously, evidence indicates that people need sound. When we are lost in thought, we involuntarily drum with our fingers or tap with a pencil--a reminder that we are still surrounded by a world outside ourselves. Just cutting down reflected sound can produce some odd results. The nearest thing on earth to the silence of outer space, for example, is the "anechoic chamber" at the Bell Telephone Laboratories in Bur ray Hills, N.J. , which is lined with material that absorbs 99.98% of all reflected sound. Men who have remained in the room for more than an hour report that they feel nervous and out of touch with reality. Questions:
1. S1. According to Paragraph One. Why do we blot out the sounds we don' t want to hear?
Because there’re numerous sounds around US．
[解析] 利用原文中的提示，用自己的话重组答案。 [详细解答]此题在第一段中能找到答案。即“We are so assaulted by sound that we continually turn off．”。但回答应具体化，不能照般原话。根据第一段的内容可知“Our world is filled with sounds．”，因此可把“assaulted by sound”更换成“numerous sounds around us”就更直接，更具体。
2. S2. The writer believes that the rhythm of our footsteps changes as
4. S4. What' s the main idea of Paragraphs 4 and 5 ?
Practice helps improve our souse of hearing．
[解析] 概括段落大意时，尽可能利用原文中现有的词。 [详细解答]第四段的第一句说明听觉是可以提高的。下文接着说可以通过培养来提高听觉。在后面的例子中，作者证实了这一点。因此这两段的主要意思是可以通过训练，提高听觉。在这两段中分别出现了“the sense of heating”，“restored”，“cultivation"，“practice"，可以利用这些词来组织答案。
5. S5. The whole passage tells us that by ignoring most of the sound around us we miss much that could give us
pleasure and information．
[解析] 此题找不到现存的答案，需要进行总结，从第一段最后一句可知如果我们对周围的声音充耳不闻，我们便无法享受声音所带来的种种乐趣。从第二段可知声音是社会现实的一个层面，能揭示人的心情等，且倒数第二：句：“…voice that informs”说明声音能提供信息。从第三段的第一句可知声音还能给人安慰、是令人愉快的。最后一段则说明没了声音，人们会感到紧张，与现实隔绝。总而言之，声音能提供快乐信息和安慰，安慰可并入愉悦之内，因为令人高兴当然会令人感到安慰。因此推导出答案 为Pleasure and information，如果加上comfort也可以。
Part Ⅳ Writing Directions: For this part ,you are required to write a composition about "What Would Happen If There Were No power" in three paragraphs.

1. Ever since early the last century, electricity has become an essential part of our modem life. ______________ 2. If there were no electric power,_______________ 3. Therefore,____________
写作指导 这是一篇给出了各段首句的议论文，要求对每句——即各段的主题句进行适当展开论述。议论文通常由论点，论据，结论构成。本文已给出了三个分论点，要求考生分别展开，并使三段话形成统一的整体。 第一段主题句意思是：从上个世纪初以来，电已成为现代生活不可或缺的一个组成部分。以下各句紧扣不可或缺的作用，选举了工农业生产，日常生活等方面的典型例子来论证；并以一句总结，重申该观点。 第二段首句“假如没有电的话”，本段可视为第一段的一个反面论证，举例时应尽量避免和第一段重复。 第三段首句是：因此。本段自然会谈到节约能源问题，此处可联系现实生活中世界上一些国家出现的能源危机来论述。 Sample Writing What Would Happen If There were No Power Ever since early the last century, electricity has become an essential part of our modern life. Our industrial and agricultural production depends on it to mendacious kinds of machines. The modern wonder-corn-puters work on electricity too. It provides light, heat and power for us. If we want to watch TV or films or to listen to the radios we also need it. Nobody can deny that the development of our civilization depends on electricity. If there were no electric power, our modem world would be in trouble. For one thing all the wheels would stop because the motors that power the machines would fail. For another, many, if not all, of our industries would cease production. All the world transport system, in addition, would be felt on the world’s communication systems. Thus our modem world would be impossible without electricity. Therefore, we should make better use of electric power. On the other hand, we should educate people to economize using electricity and not to .waste the energy resources with no thought for the future. At the same time we must do our best to exploit more electric resources to meet the requirements of the human beings and to avoid energy crisis in the future.
