selecting new blood for you If the blood is too different from your own the transfusion could kill you There are four basic types of blood A B AB and O A simple test can indicate a person s blood type which like hair color and height is inherited from parents Because of substances contained in each type the four groups must be transfused carefully Basically A and B cannot be mixed A and B cannot receive AB but AB may receive A or B O can give to any other group hence it is often called the universal donor For the opposite reason AB is sometimes called the universal recipient However because so many reactions can occur in transfusions patients usually receive only salt or plasma liquid until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital In this way it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality Among Europeans and people of European ancestry about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O The rarest is type AB Other races have different percentages For example some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O 1 A good title for this passage is A Getting Blood and Plasma B Special Blood Types C Human Blood Types D The Blood Bank of a Hospital 2 The word hence in line 10 means A always B often C therefore D seldom 3 In a blood transfusion it is easiest to find the acceptable type of blood for a person with the blood type of A A B B C AB D O 4 The purpose of using salt and plasma before a blood transfusion is to allow time A to test the reactions to the transfusion B for matching the blood to be transfused with the patient s blood C for the blood to be delivered from the blood bank D to select a new type of blood for the patient 5 Most Europeans have blood type A A B B C O D A or O 2 In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken not written In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches In the European universities of the Middle Ages students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their Field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor s degree Generally however modern examinations are written The written examination where all students are tested on the same questions was probably not known until the nineteenth century Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry A room full of candidates for a state examination timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory Certainly during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines One type of test is sometimes called an objective test It is intended to deal with facts not personal opinions To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions each of which has only one correct answer Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly 1 In the Middle Ages students A took objective tests B were timed by clocks C specialized in one subject D never wrote exams 2 The main idea of paragraph 2 is A workers now take examinations B the population has grown C there are only written exams today D examinations are now written and timed 3 The kind of exam where students must select answers is A personal B objective C spoken D written 4 Modern industry must have developed A before the Middle Ages B in Greece or Rome C around the 19lh century D machines to take tests 5 It may be concluded that testing A should test only opinions B should always be written C has changed since the Middle Ages D is given only in factories 3 Learning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking I d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course Invariably a few hands would go up What did you learn in that course I d ask Well the main thing was learning how to face an audience not to be inhibited 拘謹(jǐn) not to be nervous Exactly when you take a course in public speaking nowadays you don t hear much about grammar and vocabulary Instead you re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed how to speak without a prepared script how to read out to the live audience before you Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your long standing nervous inhibitions The same is true of writing The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who ll read what you wrote You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and read out to the person at the other end of the line Of course in public speaking with the audience right in front of you the problem is easier You can look at them and talk to them directly In writing you re alone It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her But that effort is necessary or at least it s necessary until you ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously talk on paper 1 The topic of the passage is A how to be a good writer B how to be a good speaker C how to express yourself with your words D how to get rid of nervousness in public speaking 2 The public speech course mainly teaches students A how to make an attractive speech using perfect grammar and vocabulary B how to express themselves exactly and vividly C how to collect data needed and organize it D how to get over their nervousness when making a speech 3 The similarity between making a public speech and writing is that A you have to do a lot of preparation work beforehand B you should get over your nervous inhibitions C you should know grammar and vocabulary well to accomplish them D both of them have audience 4 In the opinion of the author public speaking is much easier than writing because A public speaking requires less effort than writing B it s unnecessary for you to write a lot for speech and you can say anything as you like C you face the audience directly in public speaking while writing is otherwise D in public speaking the audience have to listen to you whether they like it or not 5 The author of this passage probably is a A boss B politician C writer D professor 4 The pen is more powerful than the sword 劍 There have been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong Mrs Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them She was born in the USA in 1811 One of her books not only made her famous but has been described as one that excited the world and was helpful in causing a civil war and freezing the slaves The civil war was the American Civil War of 1861 in which the Northern States fought the Southern States and finally won This book was named Uncle Tom s Cabin There was time when every English speaking man woman and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery Not many people read it today but it is still very interesting The book has shown us how a warm hearted writer can arouse 喚起 people s sympathies 同情 The writer herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave The Southern Americans were very angry at the novel which they said did not at all represent 代表 true state of affairs but the Northern Americans were wildly excited over it and were so inspired 激勵 by it that they were ready to go to war to set the slaves free 1 According to the passage A every English speaking person had read Uncle Tom s Cabin B Uncle Tom s Cabin was not

I had left school against the advice of my teachers I had without telling anyone tried to continue my studies in literature 文學(xué) at evening classes It was a tiresome walk from one end of the city to another and to sit among adults was uninteresting I was the youngest in the class so the friendship I knew at school was absent I put up with 忍受 it for a short period It was too long a walk on cold winter s nights and it was hard to put my heart into Shakespeare with wet shoes and trousers So I continued reading books and started writing poetry at home By chance I won some prizes and awards 獎 for literature A young woman from a TV company came to the college one day She told me that I had won a national poetry award I stared at her in astonishment and disbelief She wanted to make a short film about me to which I said No I couldn t do that Not that I had any real excuse I was just frightened In the end she persuaded me that 1 should do it the following day So I did They made a short film of me reading one of my poems and I became more interested in literature than ever I wondered what I should do after this and decided some weeks later that 1 could not imagine myself spending the rest of my days dealing with machines So one evening I hesitatingly told my parents that I wanted to return to school They were greatly surprised and I think a little afraid but they did not try to

because once we truly understand and accept it Then life is no longer difficult Most people do not fully see this truth Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy It seems to them that difficulties represent 代表 a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families their class or even their nation What makes life difficult is the process of facing and solving problems and it is a painful one Problems depending on their nature cause us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger of fear These are uncomfortable feelings often as painful as any kind of physical pain And since life causes an endless series of problems life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy Yet it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning Pro
