三、阅读理解（共 3 道试题，共 30 分。）
1.  
John Preston lives in a flat in north London. He moved there after his wife died four years ago to be closer to his daughter's family, and because his big detached house and garden were too much work for him as he got older. It's easier in the flat because the letting agent does everything that needs doing.

The agent has had the roof repaired and got the gutter replaced, but at the moment John is not satisfied because the window frames need painting and the garden looks neglected. The agent had the windows painted two years ago, but the painters didn't do it very well, so they need doing again. John pays over ￡1,500 a year for service and maintenance, and he thinks that it's not good enough because the flats look shabby and a lot of things need repairing.

His daughter, June, and her husband, Pete, on the other hand, have to do everything themselves or find builders to do it. They live in a large semi-detached house further out from the centre of London than John, but they are still near enough to see him often. They live in the suburbs with a nice garden where their children play. They moved there four years ago to have more space. The only drawback is that June's husband has to commute into the centre of London every day, but, overall, they are happy with their decision. When they bought the house, a lot needed doing to it and it still does. June says, "We have a list of things to do as long as your arm - the roof needs repairing and the chimney needs mending. The bedrooms need decorating and we haven't had the broken windowpanes replaced yet in the conservatory. We need to fix the gate and repair the path - it looks dreadful when you arrive."
1).  What does the word "replaced" mean?
A.
renewed.
B.  refilled.
C. put back.
D. recovered.
2). The word "shabby" means _________.

satisfactory
B. in good condition
C. in bad condition
D.  attractive
3). The word "drawback" most likely means _________.
A.
advantage
B. disadvantage
C. return
D.  feature
4). The sentence "we have a list of things to do as long as your arm" means _________.
A.
we have to use our arms to do a lot of things
B. we have few things to do
C. we have quite a few things to do
D. we have nothing to do
5). Which of the following is TRUE about June and Pete's house?
A.
It's detached one with a large garden.
B.  It's a located near the centre of London.
C. It was in a good state when they bought it.
D. It generally please them.
2.  
I had two jobs growing up and they all helped shape my life.

When I was about 12, I started caddying (当球童) at a nearby country club. All the kids in the neighborhood did it, and I liked it a lot. I go to watch people who were generally pretty wealthy. They were businessmen and doctors. I would listen to them talking about things and see how they behaved with each other. It was like a fly on the wall at a meeting.

The second job was at a shoe store. I constantly met people from all walks of life and the challenge was exciting. I'd start bringing them different kinds of shoes and get right down there and put them on their feet. If they didn't like a certain shoe, I always tried to be thinking ahead to a pair they might like better. It was like stepping up to the plate in a baseball game. Every time someone walked into that store, I was going to bat and taking a swing. I never wanted to let a customer get out of that store without buying a pair of shoes to his satisfaction.

This job helped teach me an important business lesson: You have to take risks in business. If you take a risk and fail, get up to bat and swing again.

1). The author thinks what he has learned from his first job is ____________.
A.
how to learn to like a job
B. how to talk and behave properly
C. how to become wealthy
D. how to listen to people
2). The phrase "people from all walks of life" means people ____________.
A.
walking in different ways
B. having different interests in life
C. coming from different parts of the city
D.  working in different occupations
3). The author thinks his second job is ____________.
A.
challenging
B. important
C. different
D. satisfying
4). The author compares his second job to ____________.
A.
a fly on the wall at a meeting
B. stepping into a golf course
C.  joining a baseball game
D. taking a bat to swing
5). The business lesson the author gets from selling shoes is ____________.
A.
thinking ahead of the customers
B. trying every possible way to satisfy a customer
C. never be afraid of taking risks
D. never let go anyone walking into the shop

Hello, new students! This is a message from the Students Union Committee.

We've been at the university for at least a year now, so we can give you some good tips. Don't worry — we remember being new and making a lot of mistakes! And we haven't forgotten feeling a little bit scared.

First, as you know, there are no longer any grants. If you borrow money from the government, remember that like all loans, you have to pay it back. Spending all your money in the first week is not a sensible strategy. Try to make a budget for each term and stick to it. But if you are struggling to make ends meet, you can get a part-time job-restaurants and bars in the town take lots of students on in the evenings and at weekends. Come and see us for advice.

Stop worrying about making new friends. Start to join the sports and hobbies societies — they're cheap and you can begin meeting a lot of people that way. It's a great chance to take up a completely new hobby.

Living in a new city a long way from home can be very stressful. One tip, don't forget your parents. After all, they are paying your tuition fees here. You will be very busy working and enjoying yourself, but stop to phone your parents sometimes and don't forget to go home for the weekend from time to time.

And remember to take your dirty washing!

Finally, remember to work hard and play hard. Go on working steadily towards your first degree (BA or BSc) throughout your three years here -- try to keep things in perspective. You'll always find someone in the Student Union office if you need to talk.
1). What does the word "scared" mean?
A.
excited.
B. frightened.
C. worried.
D. new.
-----------------选择：     
2). What does the word "grants" mean?
A.
money given by the government to support the students' study, which they needn't pay back.
B. money from the government which the students need to pay back.
C. money from the school which is similar to scholarship.
D. a kind of loan from the government with low interests.
-----------------选择：     
3). The sentence "But if you are struggling to make ends meet, …at weekends" implies_________.
A.
if you are short of money, you can find a part-time job in the restaurants and bars in your spare time
B. if you want to have a better life than others, you can find a part-time job in your spare time
C. restaurants and bars need more hands in the evenings and at weekends
D. restaurants and bars don't need more hands in the evenings and at weekends
-----------------选择：      
4). From the fifth paragraph, we can infer that in order to overcome the stress of living far away from home, _________.
A.
it's better for new students to talk to their parents over the phone from time to time
B. new students need to do their washing themselves
C. new students should keep themselves as busy as possible so that they will not miss home
D. new students should stop phoning their parents
-----------------选择：      
5). This passage is written for the purpose of _________.
A.
telling new students the problems facing them in the university
B. telling new students how to budget their money
C. offering new students some advice about their university life
D.  talking new students into joining them
-----------------选择：
