Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (2×20)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.
                   Passage 1
A library is more than just a place where books are stored. A library is a source of information. That information may come from books (fiction, nonfiction, or reference books), from periodicals (newspapers, magazines, and journals), from audio-visual materials (records, cassettes, microfilm, video tapes, etc. ), or even from a computer terminal.
Students go to libraries to study and to write research papers. The periodicals room of a university library is where foreign students often find newspapers and magazines from their countries. In the reference room, they can find catalogs from many universities in the U.S. and other countries. If you are buying a used car, the reference librarian can show you the Blue Book, which lists the prices of new and used cars. People who need information in a hurry can telephone the reference librarian at many libraries.
There are as many different library services as there are types of people who use them.  Children’s libraries provide materials for young readers. They sometimes have story tellers who read stories to groups of children, and a few have computers for the children to play with. Music lovers can listen to recordings of their favorite musicians in music libraries. Some libraries offer special services for blind people, such as books in Braille, “talking” books, and Kurzweil Reading Machines.
Libraries provide entertainment as well as information. Novels and short stories from a library’s fiction collection are a good source of enjoyable reading practice. Public libraries often sponsor lectures on topics of interest to members of the community, and a few even offer concerts and films. No matter what your interests are, you will find that a library can be a great place to enjoy yourself while you learn.
41. In libraries，readers can get information from _________ .
A. computer terminal, books, periodicals or nonfiction

                               Passage 2
The scope of mankind’s activities has experienced expansion from land to ocean, from ocean to atmosphere, and from atmosphere to outer space. Space technology, which emerged in the 1950s, opened up a new era of man’s exploration of outer space.

                              Passage 3
There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.
The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things. Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied.
The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.
Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them. These people should change this bad habit. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.
51. People who are to be unhappy  _________ .
A. always consider things differently from others
B. are usually influenced by the results of certain things
C. can discover the unpleasant part of certain things
D. usually have a fault-finding habit
52. When those unhappy people meet others, they will  _________ .
A. have a good taste of the pleasures of society
B. feel depressed about the pleasures of society
C. be happy with the pleasures of society
D. enjoy the pleasures of society
53. According to the passage, it can be safely said that  _________ .
A. if they realize the harmfulness of their habits the unhappy people may get rid of it
B. if people are in misery, they will be critical about everything
C. we should not pity these unhappy people for their self-criticism
D. these unhappy people are not content with anything they have
54. “And scarcely that” in the last paragraph means  _________ .
A. just like that            B. almost not like that
C. more than that            D. not at all like that
55. lf such unhappy persons don’t change their bad behavior, the authors suggests that people  _________ .
A. avoid contact with them
B. criticize their misconduct
C. help them recognize its bad effects
D. show no respect and politeness to them
                              Passage 4
Farmers often feel they need a lot of sunshine to produce a good crop. But lots of vegetables grow well without much sun.
The Rodale Institute in Pennsylvania published a report about this subject some years ago in its magazine Organic Gardening. The report said many different kinds of foods, from blueberries to beans, can be grown in the shade.
Some vegetables do need a lot of sun. A vegetable crop expert at the University of Maine advised putting these vegetables where they can get from eight to ten hours of sunlight a day. Tomatoes, melons, squash and peppers are among those that need the most sun. Plants that produce root crops, such as carrots and beets (甜菜), need from six to eight hours of sunlight every day. But leafy vegetables, such as lettuce (莴苣) and spinach, need only six hours of sunlight a day. Nut trees such as filbert(榛子) and yellow horn produce well with only sun in the morning.
Some fruits also do well without a lot of sunlight. In the United States, blueberries , raspberries  (树莓), and several kinds of pears need only a little sun each day. In Asia, the hardy kiwi grows well in the shade. Many herbs (香草) grow well without much sun. Mint  (薄荷)  plants, for example, grow well in the shade. So do sage, dill, oregano, borage, chamomile and several kinds of thyme.
The Rodale Institute says a garden should be planned carefully especially if you grow different kinds of foods. For example, rows of vegetables should be planted in an east-west direction. That way, as the sun passes overhead, all the plants will receive an equal amount of light. This is especially important when the plants grow to different heights.
The owner of a garden seed company warned against removing shade trees. He cut down all his shade trees to provide more sun for his crops. But then he had to protect his summer lettuce from the heat of the sun by hanging a piece of cloth to provide shade. Instead of cutting trees, he suggested putting plants that need a lot of sunlight, such as tomatoes, in containers. That way they can be moved as the sun moves.
56.  What does“ Organic Gardening” mainly publish?
A. Something related to human organs.
B. Articles on how to grow plants organically.
C. Articles on how to play organ.
D. Articles on how to arrange the garden in an organic way.
57. How many hours of sunlight does potato probably need one day?
A. Ten hours.            B. Nine hours.
C. Seven hours.            D. Five hours.
58. Among the following plants, which may not need sunlight at all?
A. Walnut.            B. Water melon.
C. Raspberry.            D. Borage.
59. Why should the vegetables be planted in an east-west direction?
A. All the plants in the garden can obtain the same amount of sunlight.
B. The plants which do not need much sunlight can be shaded.
C. It is good for different vegetables to get the same nutrition.
D. It is easy for you to arrange the garden in this way.
60. According to the passage, which statement is true?
A. To provide more sun for the plants, trees in the garden should be removed.
B. To get more sunlight, melons may be planted in movable containers.
C. The owner of a seed company planted tomatoes in containers.
D.  Being planted in containers, plants can get enough sunlight.
