PART II READING COMPREHENSION (30 MIN)
In this section there are four reading passages followed by a total of 20 multiplechoice questions Read the passages and then mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO
TEXT A
I used to look at my closet and see clothes These days whenever I cast my eyes upon the stacks of shoes and hangers of shirts sweaters and jackets I see water
It takes 569 gallons to manufacture a Tshirt from its start in the cotton fields to its appearance on store shelves A pair of running shoes 1247 gallons
Until last fall Id been oblivious to my water footprint which is defined as the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce goods and services according to the Water Footprint Network The Dutch nonprofit has been working to raise awareness of freshwater scarcity since 2008 but it was through the Green Blue Book by Thomas M Kostigen that I was able to see how my own actions factored in
Ive installed graywater systems to reuse the wastewater from my laundry machine and bathtub and reroute it to my landscape systems that save on average 50 gallons of water per day Ive set up rain barrels and infiltration pits to collect thousands of gallons of storm water cascading from my roof Ive even entered the last bastion of greendom installing a composting toilet
Suffice to say Ive been feeling pretty satisfied with myself for all the drinking water Ive saved with these bigticket projects
Now I realize that my daily consumption choices could have an even larger effect –not only on the local water supply but also globally 11 billion people have no access to freshwater and in the future those who do have access will have less of it
To see how much virtual water 1 was using I logged on to the Green Blue Book website and used its water footprint calculator entering my daily consumption habits Tallying up the water footprint of my breakfast lunch dinner and snacks as well as my daily dose of overthecounter uppers and downers coffee wine and beer Im using 512 gallons of virtual water each day just to feed myself
In a word alarming
Even more alarming was how much hidden water I was using to get dressed Im hardly a clotheshorse but the few new items I buy once again trumped the amount of water flowing from my faucets each day If Im serious about saving water I realized I could make some simple lifestyle shifts Looking more closely at the areas in my life that use the most virtual water it was food and clothes specifically meat coffee and oddly blue jeans and leather jackets
Being a motorcyclist I own an unusually large amount of leather boots and jackets in particular All of it is enormously water intensive It takes 7996 gallons to make a leatherjacket leather being a byproduct of beef It takes 2866 gallons of water to make a single pair of blue jeans because theyre made from waterhogging cotton
Crunching the numbers for the amount of clothes I buy every year it looks a lot like my friends swimming pool My entire closet is borderline Olympic
Gulp
My late resolution is to buy some items used Underwear and socks are of course exempt from this strategy but 1 have no problem shopping less and also shopping at Goodwill In fact Id been doing that for the past year to save money My clothes outrageous water footprint just reintbrced it for me
More conscious living and substitution rather than sacrifice are the prevailing ideas with the water footprint Its one Im trying and thats had an unusual upside I had a hamburger recently and I enjoyed it a lot more since it is now an occasional treat rather than a weekly habit
(One gallon 38 litres)
11 According to the passage the Water Footprint Network
A made the author aware of freshwater shortage
B helped the author get to know the Green Blue Book
C worked for freshwater conservation for nonprofit purposes

A He made contribution to drinking water conservation in his own way
B Money spent on upgrading his household facilities was worthwhile
C His house was equipped with advanced watersaving facilities
D He could have made even greater contribution by changing his lifestyle
13 According to the context how mv own actions factored in means
A how I could contribute to water conservation
B what efforts I should make to save fresh water
C what behaviour could be counted as freshwatersaving
D how much of what I did contributed to freshwater shortage
14 According to the passage the author was more alarmed by the fact that
A he was having more meat and coffee
B his clothes used even more virtual water
C globally there will be less fresh water
D his lifestyle was too extravagant
15 My entire closet is borderline Olympic is an example of
A exaggeration B analogy
C understatement D euphemism
16 What is the tone of the author in the last paragraph
A Sarcastic B Ironic C Critical D Humorous
TEXT B
In her novel of Reunion American Style Rona Jaffe suggests that a class reunion is more than a sentimental journey It is also a way of answering the question that lies at the back of nearly all our minds Did they do better than I
Jaffes observation may be misplaced but not completely lost According to a study conducted by social psychologist Jack Sparacino the overwhelming majority who attend reunions arent there invidiously to compare their recent accomplishments with those of their former classmates Instead they hope primarily to relive their earlier successes
Certainly a few return to show their former classmates how well they have done others enjoy observing the changes that have occurred in their classmates (not always in themselves of course) But the majority who attend their class reunions do so to relive the good times they remember having when they were younger I
n his study Sparacino found that as high school students attendees had been more popular more often regarded as attractive and more involved in extracurricular activities than those classmates who chose not to attend For those who turned up at their reunions then the old times were also the good times
It would appear that Americans have a special fondness for reunions judging by their prevalence Major league baseball players fraternity members veterans groups high school and college graduates and former Boy Scouts all hold reunions on a regular basis In addition family reunions frequently attract blood relatives from faraway places who spend considerable money and time to reunite
Actually in their affection for reuniting with friends family or colleagues Americans are probably no different from any other people except that Americans have created a mindboggling number and variety of institutionalized forms of gatherings to facilitate the satisfaction of this desire Indeed reunions have increasingly become formal events that are organized on a regular basis and in the process they have also become big business
Shell Norris of Class Reunion Inc says that Chicago alone has 1500 high school reunions each year A conservative estimate on the national level would be 10000 annually At one time all high school reunions were organized by volunteers usually female homemakers In the last few years however as more and more women have entered the labour force alumni reunions are increasingly being planned by specialized companies rather than by parttime volunteers
The first college reunion was held by the alumni of Yale University in 1792 Graduates of Pennsylvania Princeton Stanford and Brown followed suit And by the end of the 19th century
most 4year institutions were holding alumni reunions
The variety of college reunions is impressive At Princeton alumni parade through the town wearing their class uniforms and singing their alma mater At Marietta College they gather for a dinnerdance on a steamship cruising the Ohio River
Clearly the thought of cruising on a steamship or marching through the streets is usually not by itself sufficient reason for large numbers of alumni to return to campus Alumni who decide to attend their reunions share a common identity based on the years they spent together as undergraduates For this reason universities that somehow establish a common bond – for example because they are relatively small or especially prestigious tend to draw substantial numbers of their alumni to reunions In an effort to enhance this common identity larger colleges and universities frequently build their class reunions on participation in smaller units such as departments or schools Or they encourage affinity reunions for groups of former cheerleaders editors fraternity members musicians members of military organizations on campus and the like
Of course not every alumnus is fond of his or her alma mater Students who graduated during the late 1960s may be especially reluctant to get involved in alumni events They were part of the generation that conducted sitins and teachins directed at university administrators protested military recruitment on campus and marched against establishment politics If this generation has a common identity it may fall outside of their university ties or even be hostile to them Even as they enter their middle years alumni who continue to hold unpleasant memories of college during this period may not wish to attend class reunions
17 According to the passage Sparacinos study
A provided strong evidence for Jaffes statement
B showed that attendees tended to excel in high school study
C found that interest in reunions was linked with school experience
D found evidence for attendees intense desire for showing off success
18 Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a distinct feature of US class reunions
A US class reunions are usually occasions to show off ones recent success
B Reunions are regular and formal events organized by professional agencies
C Class reunions have become a profitable business
D Class reunions have brought about a variety of activities
19 What mainly attracts many people to return to campus for reunion
A The variety of activities for class reunion
B The special status their university enjoys
C Shared experience beyond the campus
D Shared undergraduate experience on campus
20 The rhetorical function of the first paragraph is to
A introduce Rona Jeffes novel
B present the authors counterargument
C serve as prelude to the authors argument
D bring into focus contrasting opinions
21 What is the passage mainly about
A Reasons for popularity and (non)attendance for alumni reunions
B A historical perspective for alumni reunions in the United States
C Alumni reunions and American university traditions
D Alumni reunion and its social and economic implications
TEXT C
One time while on his walk George met Mr Cattanzara coming home very late from work He wondered if he was drunk but then could tell he wasnt Mr Cattanzara a stocky baldheaded man who worked in a change booth on an IRT station lived on the next block after Georges above a shoe repair store Nights during the hot weather he sat on his stoop in an undershirt reading the New York Times in the light of the shoemakers window He read it from the first page to the last then went up to sleep And all the time he was reading the paper his wife a fat woman with a white face leaned out of the window gazing into the street her thick white arms folded under her loose breast on the window ledge
Once in a while Mr Cattanzara came home drunk but it was a quiet drunk He never made any trouble only walked stiffly up the street and slowly climbed the stairs into the hall Though drunk he looked the same as always except for his tight walk the quietness and that his eyes were wet George liked Mr Cattanzara because he remembered him giving him nickels to buy lemon ice with when he was a squirt Mr Cattanzara was a different type than those in the neighbourhood He asked different questions than the others when he met you and he seemed to know what went on in all the newspapers He read them as his fat sick wife watched from the window
What are you doing with yourself this summer George Mr Cattanzara asked l see you walkin around at night
George felt embarrassed I like to walk
What are you doin in the day now
Nothing much just now Im waiting for a job Since it shamed him to admit that he wasnt working George said Im reading a lot to pick up my education
What are you readin
George hesitated then said I got a list of books in the library once and now Im gonna read them this summer He felt strange and a little unhappy saying this but he wanted Mr Cattanzara to respect him
How many books are there on it
I never counted them Maybe around a hundred
Mr Cattanzara whistled through his teeth
I figure if l did that George went on earnestly it would help me in my education 1 dont mean the kind they give you in high school I want to know different things than they learn there if you know what I mean
The change maker nodded Still and all one hundred books is a pretty big load for one
summer
It might take longer
After youre finished with some maybe you and I can shoot the breeze about them said Mr Cattanzara
When Im finished George answered
Mr Cattanzara went home and George continued on his walk After that though he had the urge to George did nothing different from usual He still took his walks at night ending up in the little park But one evening the shoemaker on the next block stopped George to say he was a good boy and George figured that Mr Cattanzara had told him all about the books he was reading From the shoemaker it must have gone down the street because George saw a couple of people smiling kindly at him though nobody spoke to him personally He felt a little better around the neighbourhood and liked it more though not so much he would want to live in it forever He had never exactly disliked the people in it yet he had never liked them very much either It was the fault of the neighbourhood To his surprise George found out that his father and his sister Sophie knew about his reading too His father was too shy to say anything about it he was never much of a talker in his whole life but Sophie was softer to George and she showed him in other ways she was proud of him
22 In the excerpt Mr Cattanzara was described as a man who
A was fond of drinking B showed a wide interest
C often worked overtime D liked to gossip after work
23 It can be inferred from the passage that
A Mr Cattanzara was surprised at Georges reading plan
B Mr Cannazara was doubtful about George throughout
C George was forced to tell a lie and then regretted
D George lied at the beginning and then became serious
24 After the street conversation with Mr Cattanzara George
A remained the same as usual
B became more friendly with Mr Cattanzara
C began to like his neighbours more than ever
D continued to read the books from the list
25 We can tell from the excerpt that George
A had a neither close nor distant relationship with his father
B was dissatisfied with his life and surroundings
C found that his sister remained skeptical about him
D found his neighbours liked to poke their nose into him
TEXT D
Abraham Lincoln turns 200 this year and hes beginning to show his age When his birthday arrives on February 12 Congress will hold a special joint session in the Capitols National Statuary Hall a wreath will be laid at the great memorial in Washington and a webcast will link school classrooms for a teachin honouring his memory
Admirable as they are though the events will strike many of us Lincoln fans as inadequate even halfhearted and another sign that our appreciation for the 16th president and his towering achievements is slipping away And you dont have to be a Lincoln enthusiast to believe that this is something we cant afford to lose
Compare this years celebration with the Lincoln centennial in 1909 That year Lincolns likeness made its debut on the penny thanks to approval from the US Secretary of the Treasury Communities and civic associations in every comer of the country erupted in parades concerts balls lectures and military displays We still feel the effects today The momentum unloosed in 1909 led to the Lincoln Memorial opened in 1922 and the Lincoln Highway the first paved transcontinental thoroughfare
The celebrants in 1909 had a few inspirations we lack today Lincolns presidency was still a living memory for countless Americans In 2009 we are farther in time from the end of the Second World War than they were from the Civil War families still felt the loss of loved ones from that awful national trauma
But Americans in 1909 had something more an unembarrassed appreciation for heroes and an acute sense of the way that even longdead historical figures press in on the present and make us who we are
One story will illustrate what lm talking about
In 2003 a group of local citizens arranged to place a statue of Lincoln in Richmond Virginia former capital of the Confederacy The idea touched off a firestorm of controversy The Sons of Confederate Veterans held a public conference of carefully selected scholars to reassess the legacy of Lincoln The verdict no surprise was negative Lincoln was labeled everything from a racist totalitarian to a teller of dirty jokes
I covered the conference as a reporter but what really unnerved me was a counterconference of scholars to refute the earlier one These scholars drew a picture of Lincoln that only our touchyfeely age could conjure up The man who oversaw the most savage war in our history was described by his admirers remember as nonjudgmental unmoralistic comfortable with ambiguity
I felt the way a friend of mine felt as we later watched the unveiling of the Richmond statue in a subdued ceremony But hes so small
The statue in Richmond was indeed small like nearly every Lincoln statue put up in the past half century it was lifesize and was placed at ground level a conscious rejection of the heroic approachable and human yes but not something to look up to
The Richmond episode taught me that Americans have lost the language to explain Lincolns greatness even to ourselves Earlier generations said they wanted their children to be like Lincoln principled kind compassionate resolute Today we want Lincoln to be like us
This helps to explain the long string of recent books in which writers have presented a Lincoln made after their own image Weve had Lincoln as humorist and Lincoln as manicdepressive Lincoln the business sage the conservative Lincoln and the liberal Lincoln the emancipator and the racist the stoic philosopher the Christian the atheist Lincoln over easy and Lincoln scrambled
Whats often missing though i s the timeless Lincoln the Lincoln whom all generations our own no less than that of 1909 can lay claim to Lucky for us those memorializers from a century ago and through them Lincoln himself have left us a hin t of where to find him The Lincoln Memorial is the mos t visited of our presidential monuments Here is where we find the Lincoln who endures in the words he left us defining the country weve inherited Here is the Lincoln who can be endlessly renewed and who 200 years after his birth retains the power to renew us
26 The author thinks that this years celebration is inadequate and even halfhearted because
A no Lincoln statue will be unveiled
B no memorial coins will be issued
C no similar appreciation of Lincoln will be seen
D no activities can be compared to those in 1909
27 According to the passage what really makes the 1909 celebrations different from this years
A Respect for great people and their influence
B Variety and magnitude of celebration activities
C Structures constructed in memory of Lincoln
D Temporal proximity to Lincolns presidency
28 In the authors opinion the counterconference
A rectified the judgment by those carefully selected scholars
B offered a brand new reassessment perspective
C came up with somewhat favourable conclusions
D resulted in similar disparaging remarks on Lincoln
29 According to the author the image of Lincoln conceived by contemporary people
A conforms to traditional images
B reflects the presentday tendency of worship
C shows the presentday desire to emulate Lincoln
D reveals the variety of current opinions on heroes
30 Which of the following best explains the implication of the last paragraph
A Lincolns greatness remains despite the passage of time
B The memorial is symbolic of the great mans achievements
C Each generation has it own interpretation of Lincoln
D People get to know Lincoln through memorializers

In some cases intelligent people implementing intelligent policies are responsible for producing a boomerang effect they actually create more of whatever it is they seek to reduce in the first place
The boomerang effect has been achieved many times in recent years by men and women of goodwill State legislatures around the nation have recently raised the drinking age back to 21 in an effort to reduce the prevalence of violent deaths among our young people But such policies seem instead to have created the conditions for even more campus violence Some college students who previously drank in bars and lounges under the watchful supervision of bouncers (夜总会酒吧等保安员) (not to mention owners ea~er to keep their liquor licenses) now retreat to the sanctuary of their fraternity houses and apartments where they no longer control their behaviour or their drinking
The boomerang effect has also played a role in attempts to reduce the availability of illicit drugs During recent years the federal government has been quite successful in reducing the supply of street drugs As fields are burned and contraband (违禁品)confiscated the price of street drugs has skyrocketed to a point where cheap altematives have begun to compete in the marketplace Unfortunately the cheap alternatives are even more harmful than the illicit drugs they replace
