Passage 1 (5 分) 单项选择

It’s over three years since I began to learn English. I’m glad that I am getting on well with it.

I find English quite difficult, but very interesting. When I first started, I thought I had only to remember the new words and learn some grammar I knew little about English idioms(习语).I thought each English word had the same meaning in Chinese. When I learn to say“I see a book on the desk,” I thought the English word “see ” was just like the Chinese word “ kan ”，So one day when my teacher asked me,“ what are you doing?”, I answered， “I’m seeing a book.” “That’s wrong .” the teacher said, “you don’t see a book, You read a book. You can’t use English word like a Chinese one.. Be sure not to make the same mistake again.”

After that I began to pay more attention to the differences between Chinese and English. For example, in English we say a“ high mountain”, but a“ tall man. ” In Chinese we use the same word “gao ” for both.。Again in English we say“ take part in the sports meeting ”, “ attend the meeting ” and“ join the army,” while in Chinese we can use “can jia ” for all three. Interesting ，isn't?

So to study English doesn't only mean hard wok, it can be great fun, too! We not only have to pay attention to pronunciation, grammar spelling and handwriting, we also have to unde rstand English idioms. We can learn English well only in the way!

But all this is only a beginning and I still have a long way to go. I’ll try my best and work even harder than before. I must speak and listen to English more both in and out of class. I must learn English wel l so that I can work well when I grow up.

Passage 2. ( 5 分)

What is your favorite color? Do you kike yellow, orange, or red? If you do, you must be an active person who enjoys life. Do you like blue? Then you are p robably quiet, shy , would rather follow than lead.

Colors do influence our moods(情绪)。 A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(令人压抑的). There was a black bridge over the Thames River near London,. The number of people who killed themselves on that bridge used to be larger than on any other bridge in the area-----until it was repainted green.

Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. In the factory, the workers will work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black.
