Passage 1

In the United States，it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day，while he is shaving or having breakfast，the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11: 00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it’s a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.

In social life，time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world，it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus，misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt，they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence. (266)

10. From the passage we can safely infer that the meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.

Passage 2

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium–range and long–term goals.

Short–term 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 possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, 1ong-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–term 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–term 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. (231)

11. Our long–term goals mean a lot .

A. if we cannot reach solid short–term goals B. if we complete the short–term goals C. if we have dreams of the future D. if we put forward some plans 12. New short–term goals are built upon .

A. a daily basis B. your achievement in a week C. current activities D. the goals that have been completed 13. When we complete each step of our goals, _______.

A. we will win final success B. we are overwhelmed

C. we should build up confidence of success

D. we should have strong desire for setting new goals 14. What is the main idea of this passage? .

A. Life is a dynamic thing B. We should set up long–term goals C. Different kinds of goals in life D. The limitation of long–term goals 15. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? .

A. The long–term goals cannot amount to very munch without the achievement of solid short–term goals

B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short–term goals

C. Life is a static thing，thus we should never allow a long–term goal to limit us or our course of action

D. We should often add new short–term goals to those which have been completed 第三部分：词汇与结构（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
