What do we mean by a perfect English pronunciation? In one 21 there are as many different kinds of English as there are speakers of it. None of the two speakers speak in exactly the same 22 . We can always hear differences between them, and the pronunciation of English 23 a great deal in different geographical areas. How do we decide what sort of English to use as a 24 ? This is not a question that can be answered in the same way for all foreign learners of English. 25 you live in a part of the world like India or West Africa, where there is a long 26 of speaking English for general communication purpose, you should aim to acquire a good variety of the pronunciation of this area. It would be 27 in these circumstances to use as a model BBC English or anything of the sort. On the other hand, if you live in a country 28 there is no traditional use of English, you must take as your model some form of 29 English pronunciation. It does not matter very much which form you choose. The most 30 way is to take as your model the sort of English you can hear most often.

Passage 1
Penguins (企鹅)live together in large and busy colonies. Every pair has a little piece of ground. When a penguin wants to walk through his neighbor’s ground he must ask permission. If he does not，he will have to fight.
Penguins come and go all day. They fight，fish and look after their children. All penguins are good parents--the Emperor penguins are perhaps the best parents in the world. They walk in from the sea in the middle of the dark Antarctic winter. They choose their wives in the dark. They can only hear them——not see them. Then the females lay their eggs and go away for two months. The males look after the eggs. They hold them on their feet inside a fold of skin. If the eggs get cold there will be no chicks. There is no food. The snow falls. The wind blows--sometimes at 150 kilometres an hour. The penguins do not move. When the females return from the sea they will not remember their husbands. It does not matter. Only one thing matters--the eggs. Emperor penguins never fight--unless a penguin leaves a chick for a minute. Then they fight because they all want it. They are strange and wonderful birds.
31. Each pair of penguins lives together with_______.
[A] their parents
[B] some good neighbors
[C] many other penguins
[D] their chicks

[D] a chick left alone by its parents
33. What is very important is______.
[A] female penguins
[B] male penguins
[C] eggs
[D] a piece of ground
34、Penguins are strange and wonderful birds because_______.
[A] they only care about their children
[B] the females do not look after their eggs
[C] the males eat nothing while holding their eggs inside their warm fold of skin
[D] all of the above.
35、This passage mainly tells readers something_______.
[A] strange about the best parents in the world
[B] wonderful about Emperor penguins
[C] interesting about penguins' life.
[D] funny about the fight between the male penguins
Passage 2
Thomas Alva Edison was awarded more patents（专利）on inventions than any other American. When he died in 1931，Americans wondered how they could best show their respect for him.
One suggestion was that the nation observes a minute or two of total blackout. All electric power would be shut off in homes，streets，and factories.
Perhaps this suggested plan made Americans realize fully what Edison and his inventions meant to them. Electric power was too important to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would have led to complete confusion. A Blackout was out of the question. On the day of Edison's funeral，many people silently dimmed their lights. In this way they honored the man who had done more than anyone else to put the great force of electricity at his country people's fingertips.
36. People decided to honor Edison when______.
[A] he made the first electric light
[B] electric power was 100 years old
[C] the country realized electricity's importance
[D] he died in 1931

[A] turn off the lights in factories and schools
[B] observe a few minutes of total silence
[C] dim all electric lights
[D] shut off all electricity for a short time
38. Americans fully realized what Edison's inventions meant when they_______.
[A] heard of his death
[B] heard of the plan to honor him
[C] first used electric power
[D] tried to carry out the plan
39. The plan was never carried out because_______.
[A] not everyone wanted to honor Edison
[B] it was too difficult
[C] electric power was too important to the country
[D] it honored only one of Edison's inventions
40. This passage was probably written to______.
[A] tell about Edison's inventions
[B] explain electricity
[C] prove that people wished to honor Edison
[D] show what a great man Edison was
Passage 3
Friends or contemporaries(同龄人)are a great influence on the actions，thoughts，and words of young people. This influence，known as peer pressure，is quite common among children. Why are children so easily affected by what their peers do，think，or say?
Most of us，children included，feel a strong need to be liked by others. We seek acceptance and friendship. In order to gain them，we act like our friends，and listen to their advice，whether or not it is helpful. Some of us even begin to think like our friends，sometimes at the expense of our own beliefs and values. An example that comes to mind is the young person who gets involved with drugs because his peer group is experimenting with them. Parents may try to exert pressure to keep him away from drugs，but frequently peer pressure is too great. This conflict between being your own person and，at the same time，responding to the pressures of a group remains a problem for young people.
41. The passage mainly talks about_______.
[A] friendship
[B] peer pressure
[C] conflicts between young people and their parents

[A] children
[B] strong needs to be liked by others

[C] keeping yourself away from drugs
[D] having enough self-confidence
44. The second paragraph focuses on_______.
[A] what peer pressure is
[B] how young people start to take drugs
[C] what parents should do for their children
[D] why young people are easily influenced by their peers
45. Who can influence us on the actions, thoughts?
