Part I Reading Comprehension (40%)
Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage One
There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals. Short-range goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possible months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, out long-term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.
The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-range goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.
Long-range goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.

Passage Two
Women are also underrepresented in the administration and this is because there are so few women full professors. In 1985, Regent Beryl Milburn produced a report blasting the University of Texas System administration for not encouraging women. The University was rated among the lowest for the system. In a 1987 update, Milburn commended the progress that was made and called for even more improvement.
One of the positive results from her study was a System-wide program to inform women of available administrative jobs.
College of Communication Associate Dean Patrica Witherspoon, said it is important that woman be flexible when it comes to relocating if they want to rise in the ranks.
Although a woman may face a chilly climate on campus, many times in order for her to succeed, she must rise above the problems around her and concentrate on her work.
Until women make up a greater percentage of the senior positions in the University and all academia, inequities will exist.
"Women need to spend their energies and time doing scholarly activities that are important here at the University." Spirduso said. "If they do that will be successful in this system. If they spend their time in little groups mourning the sexual discrimination that they think exists here, they are wasting valuable study time."

b. call for further improvement in their working conditions
c. spend their energies and time fighting against sexual discrimination

Passage Three
The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat ,it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. Different cultures are more likely to cause certain different illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, about 35 years ago, government researchers realized that nitrates, commonly used to preserve color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives which we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to beef and living animals, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cow. Sometimes similar drugs are given to animals not for medical purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.
11. What is the best possible title of the passage?
a. Drug and Food
b. Cancer and Health
c. Food and Health
d. Health and Drug
12. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
a. Drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons
b. Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some are given to the living animals
c. Researchers have known about the potential dangers of food additives for over thirty-five years.
d. Food may cause forty percent of cancer in world.
13. How has science done something harmful to mankind?
a. Because of science , diseases caused by polluted food haven been virtually eliminated.
b. It has caused a lack of information concerning the value of food.
c. Because of the application of science, some potentially harmful substances have been added to food.
d. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables.
14. What are nitrates used for?
a. They preserve flavor in packaged foods.
b. They preserve the color of meats.
c. They are the objects of research.
d. They cause the animals to become fatter.
15. The word ‘carcinogenic' most nearly means ‘_____'.
a. trouble-making
b. color-retaining
c. money-making
d. cancer-causing
Passage Four
What is your favourite colour? Do you like yellow, orange,red? If you do,you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You tend to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colours preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. They tells us, among other facts, that we do not choose our favourite clour as we grow up----we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.
Colours do influence our moods----there is no doubt about it .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. A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene of more suicides than any other bridge in the area ----until it was repainter green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder ,and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey.
16."You would rather follow than red" means_______.
a. you don't like to follow others
b. you would be a member rather than a leader
c. you would be afraid of following others
d. you would like to be a leader rather than a follower
17. If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer________.
a. red to yellow
b. blue to orange
c. red to grey
d. blue to yellow
18."They tell us, among other facts, that we don't choose our favourite colours as we grow up." "Among other facts" means______.
a. besides other facts
b. in regard to other facts
c. not considering other facts
d. according to other facts
19. Which of the following is facts?
a. People's preference of one colour to another is instinct
b. People's preference of one colour to another is acquired as they grow up.
c. More people happen to love brown because they saw something brown when they were born
