正确答案: Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed. Task 1 Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. At the turn of the century it is estimated that a student living alone requires on average A$12000 (Australia dollars) in living expenses for each year of study in Australia. Of course, these costs increase with time. Upon arrival, students should have funds in excess of the average to cover the cost of text books and establishment expenses such as rental payment and basic furniture items. The amount spent on food, recreation, and entertainment expenses will vary according to requirements, budget, and location. Those who are prepared to live in shared accommodation, which may not be suitable for all, might manage on A$10000 per year. It is preferable for overseas students whose English is in need of practice to take advantage of living in situation with native speakers whenever possible. However, sharing with friends who are easy to communicate with is probably more sensible at first. The above figures do not include the cost of large non-essential items such as household equipment or a car. Owning and maintaining a motor vehicle is expensive in Australia. Insurance is compulsory and costly and parking both on and off campus can be a problem requiring additional expense. It is not advisable for a student to own a car unless it is absolutely necessary. A reasonable second hand car can cost more than A $4000. Educational institutions are almost always serviced by reliable public transport. The university and college campuses within the major cities are well served by public buses. In addition, the large cities have extensive train systems. For example, in Sydney, most college and university campuses are only 10 or 20 minutes from a rail station. 36. Sharing accommodation is _______________. A) 10 000 per year cheaper than living alone B) more expensive than living alone C) not always suitable for students D) suitable for most students 37. Students buying a car should take into account _______________. A) the interest of the loan C) the age of the car B) insurance costs D) the family objections 38. Students who share with others in accommodation will probably spend an average of ___________________.
39. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A) It is not preferable for overseas students to share accommodation with others. B) Students are encouraged to buy second-hand cars because transportation is not convenient. C) It is better to find a roommate who is ready to help you in your English study. D) It is much easier to reach major cities by train. 40. What does the sentence “Of course, these costs increase with time” (Para.1) mean?
A) Costs of education will rise in the future.
B)Costs of living expenses will rise in the future.
C)Costs of living expenses never decrease in the past.
D)The longer you study in Australia, the more you will spend.
Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45. Milk has become a popular drink for modern Chinese, not only its nutritional value appreciated, it seems even to have taken the role making the whole nation strong. Milk industry has only about 180 years of history among the Han people. For a long time, milk was considered a luxury drink by common people. A widespread saying in the country was that Japan used a cup of milk to strengthen the constitution of its people. That sounds reasonable because the rich “Ca” in milk definitely benefits the constitution. The average annual consumption per capita in Japan has risen from less than 10 kilograms immediately after World War II to 68 kilograms today. The average height of Japanese has increased by 11 centimeters during this period. The Chinese Government also hopes to improve the constitution of local people, and since milk is the most obvious nutritious food, it has naturally been picked up. But due to tradition, Chinese people are not in the habit of drinking milk regularly. The annual output of milk in the country is about 10 million tons, compared with an output of alcohol reaching 8 million tons. The annual milk consumption per capita is about 7 kilograms in China while the world’s average is about 100 kilograms. The government has noticed the huge gap and plans to raise consumption to 10 kilograms per capita by 2005 and 16 kilograms by 2010. The government has also started plans for “school milk” since the beginning of this century. 41. Chinese government encourage people to drink milk and hope that ___________. A) the whole nation will become stronger B) the milk industry will have a faster development C) milk will no longer be considered a luxury drink D) its nutritional value will be more appreciated 42. For decades, milk was considered a luxury drink because common people _____. A) did not like drinking milk C) were not used drinking milk B) could find no way to get milk D) could not afford drinking milk 43. The phrase “per capita” (Line 1, Para. 2) might be new to you. The meaning of this is probably “____________________”.
A) per cent C) for each person
B) for each family D) per capital
44. The purpose for the author to mention the output of alcohol in the 2nd paragraph is to say that ___________________.
A) We haven’t produced enough milk C) we haven’t produced enough alcohol
B) We have produced too much milk D) we have produced too much alcohol
45. Since the beginning of the 21st century, the government has started _________. A) a plan to produce more milk C) to produce milk for more people B) a plan to offer milk to school children D) to ask schools to offer milk

You should write your answers briefly (in no more than 3 words) on the Answer Sheet correspondingly. Most libraries require you to register before you are allowed to borrow any of their materials. This means you will probably be asked to fill out and sign a registration card. When you do this, you are not only giving the library your name and address for their files, you are also signing an agreement. The agreement says, basically, that you will obey the rules of the library. Once you are registered, you will be issued a library, or borrower’s card. Each time you check out, that is, officially borrow something from the library, you will have to present this card to the librarians. You usually check out and return borrowed materials at the same desk. The library staff member at this desk will take your card and stamped the book card with a date. This is the date by which you are expected to return the materials to the library, so others can have the chance of borrowing it. Some libraries charge a fine for each day a library book is overdue. There are also other fines for books returned damaged or written in. Should you lose a library book, you may be required to pay the library the amount it was worth.
