You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Passage 1
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
According to Forrester Research, 8.6 million online shoppers access the Internet via a high-speed connection, compared to 12 million using dial-up. Taken alone, those findings are hardly groundbreaking. What’s noteworthy is the rest of the picture that emerges from that study: Those broadband users are younger, richer , and better informed than their narrowband counterparts. They spend more time and money online and are more likely to buy customized products and services.
So why hasn’t the Internet become the focus for broadband companies seeking to establish relationships with a demographic that has demonstrated a preference for their product? Simply put, until recently, their attempts fell flat. Just over a year ago, our agency launched an online performance-based e-marketing campaign to promote a broadband service. Despite engaging creative and a compelling offer, it met with resounding silence. Six months later, the response was only marginally better. So we were only cautiously optimistic two months later when we launched another campaign for the same advertiser, using the same offer. This time, it was a success. Response rates tripled and the customer acquisition cost dropped from $300 to under $100.
Clearly, the floodgates have opened and the most sought-after consumers are rushing through to broadband. And while the surge in response wasn’t a complete surprise given the emphasis placed on marketing broadband services, it was enough to make us curious about what other factors were at play. What we discovered was a scenario where so many people have experienced broadband’s superiority at work, school, and even in friends’ homes that they know what they’re missing.
According to U.S. News & World Report, some 20 million households nationwide now have broadband, with another 100,000 signing up each week. That saturation has created a market of increasingly discontent dial-up subscribers for broadband companies to reach. Imagine the impact when -- as dial-up users impatiently wait for Web pages to load -- an ad pops up promising lightning-fast access. Their response starts an on going relationship managed through newsletters and other e-mail communications designed to keep them informed about value-added services, special promotions, etc. Not only is it a demographic pre-disposed to online CRM, it is also one that is far from oversold. In fact, less than one-third of U.S. households will subscribe to a broadband service by 2006. And as services designed specifically for broadband increase and support for dial-up declines, the 42 percent of Internet users who said they didn’t need broadband will become receptive to a well-focused CRM program. But it won’t last forever. While the window of opportunity to reach broadband buyers online is open, it’s not likely to stay that way. Broadband may be the current heir apparent for connectivity, but wireless has given every indication it will be a sleeper hit, emerging from nowhere to take the top spot.
In short, the time for broadband companies to establish online customer relationships is now -- before the window slams shut.
21. What is NOT mentioned as the result of Forrester Research in the first paragraph?
A) A lot of online shoppers access the Internet by broadband.
B) Broadband users get more information than the dial-up users.
C) It is probable for broadband users to buy the products specially made for them.
D) It is the first time for people to find out the number of broadband and narrowband users.
22. What did the online performance-based e-marketing campaign bring at first?
A) The promotion of a broadband service.
B) Cautious responses.
C) No response at all.
D) Some marginal responses.
23. Why did another campaign become a success later?
A) Because the agency has used a compelling offer.
B) Because people have enjoyed the broadband’s advantages in their daily life.
C) Because the agency has spent a lot of money on the advertisements.
D) Because people become curious about the broadband.
24. It can be inferred from the passage that____.
A) Few is likely to use dial-up in the future.
B) Broadband companies should establish online customer relationships now.
C) About 20 million households nationwide now have broadband.
D) People design more services specially for broadband.
25. What is the main idea of this passage?
A) How Forrester Research got the valuable information.
B) Why people want to use broadband.
C) How broadband services find success in online CRM.
D) Broadband services have great influence on people.
Passage 2
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
The following passage is an opening speech by Lord Weidenfeld, founder of the Europaeum and Chairman, Weidenfeld and Nicolson PublishersI am very privileged and gratified to talk to you today. I think it is most appropriate to have this meeting at the Humboldt University, Berlin, because of the impulse to the creation to the European network, to the sequence of events, and that great turning point of history, which is symbolised by the fall of the Berlin wall. It was that particular impulse that started an enterprise to bring together teachers and students in, first of all, Western European Universities to offer resources to those universities which had only recently emerged in other parts of Europe. So we started the Europaeum network. Six universities joined us initially. We then approached the University of Prague to join us for the beginning of an enlargement, which would also to include universities previously behind the Iron Curtain. The group that we assembled around the Europaeum logo is by no means exclusive and we would very much like to enlarge it. The term ’variable geometry’ is very fashionable in international politics, but I think it also applies to our intentions, we want it to expand and include other universities either as full members or associates so free standing research institutes.
Thanks to the generosity of our German sponsor DaimlerChrysler, particularly the Davies Group of the organization, Dr Klaus Mangold and Dr Bensel, we are now engaging in a study of the roles of the universities in the future. We have a number of ideas regarding how to set about answering these three major questions: What is the future role of the university? If we have established what it is, how do we equip it to produce the resources and do its job and what role does it play in our society? We hope to have a number of ongoing conferences and exchanges of views on the subject thanks to the friendly and co-operation of Humboldt University.
We are now in a new era since 11 September. I think that one day we will regard that approximate decade from the fall of the wall in Berlin and the destruction of the World Trade Centre in New York. Here it is important that we play our role. In what we now see in the plateau of Central Southeast Asia, a holy alliance of barbarism, fanaticism and high tech product of the information society. The University, by having as a component an important dosage of humanism, makes all the difference between a Robespierre like revolution or a continuation of the human spirit with the new resources and tools, carefully husbanded, monitored and controlled.
Thanks to President of Humboldt University, Professor Michael Kreile, Professor Pera, Paul Flather and colleagues.

Passage 3
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
When a heart-lung machine was invented that could take over the job of the heart, put oxygen into the blood and keep the circulation going during surgery, surgeons could stop the heart while they were cutting and suturing. Recently, in certain cases, some surgeons have begun operating without the pump while the heart continues to beat.
“The benefits of off-pump surgery are tremendous for patients who meet the criteria for this procedure,” says Dr. Jim Zellner with the Alliance of Cardiac, Thoracic and Vascular Surgeons. “There is less need for blood products, less chance of complications during and after surgery, earlier recovery and earlier return to regular activity.”
Seawood Murray feels he was led by God to find Dr. Zellner and Memorial Hospital and to have off-pump surgery.
A veteran of the United States Navy as a nuclear weapons security officer and commanding officer of a mine assembly group for more than 31 years, Seawood has never complained about stress or pain. He saw three tours of duty off the coast of Vietnam.
However, after suffering from chest pain for almost a year and being misdiagnosed with chronic heartburn, Seawood knew something was seriously wrong. At the Veteran’s hospital in Murfreesboro, he learned he had heart disease and was told to come back in six weeks.
“I didn’t want to wait that long and asked for a referral to The Chattanooga Heart Institute,” Seawood says. “Dr. Noel Hunt found that 40% of my heart was not getting the amount of blood it needed to operate properly.” Four days later, Seawood was undergoing off-pump triple bypass surgery at Memorial Hospital under the hand of Dr. Zellner. “I was sitting up that evening, walking around the second day and feeling good enough to go home the third day, but I stayed till the fourth morning,” Seawood says. “Two others who had on-pump bypass surgery the same day I had mine off-pump were barely walking when I left.”
31. How do surgeons usually operate on a heart-attacker according to the passage?
A) They operate without a pump.
B) They operate with a heart-lung machine.
C) They operate by stopping the heart.
D) They operate with nothing but cutting and suturing.
32. Which of the following statements is NOT the benefit of off-pump surgery?
A) The heart-attack patients will be recovered in one day.
B) There are fewer chances for heart-attack patients to suffer from other new diseases during the course of hear attack.
C) Off-pump surgery needs fewer blood products.
D) The heart-attack patients will be well again earlier.
33. What’s wrong with Seawood Murray?
A) He suffered from chronic heartburn.
B) He suffered from heart attack.
C) He had three tours of duty off the coast of Vietnam.
D) His heart couldn’t get blood it needed to operate.
34. What did Dr. Zellner do for Seawood Murray’s disease?
A) Dr. Zellner gave him a surgery with a heart-lung machine..
B) Dr. Zellner diagnosed his disease as chronic heartburn.
C) Dr. Zellner gave him an off-pump triple bypass surgery.
D) Dr. Zellner referred him to another hospital.
35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A) Seawood Murray could hardly walk four days after the surgery.
B) Seawood Murray got recovered more slowly than other patients.
C) Seawood Murray felt well and went home the third day after the surgery.
D) Seawood Murray went home the fourth day after the surgery.
Passage 4
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
The key element to successful interviewing is not your experience, your grades,what classes you took, your extracurricular activities, or any of the other basic necessities. Those skills are what got you the interview. The key element to uccessful interviewing can be summed up in one word: attitude. If you want to rise above others with better experience, better grades, or better anything, you will need to work on developing a highly positive work attitude.
Your attitude determines whether you will “make the cut” or be discarded. Remember, there are plenty of competitors with the ability to do almost any given job-- especially at the entry level. The way most employers differentiate at the entry level is by candidates’ attitudes toward the job. Your attitude is often what recruiters will remember when the dust has settled after reviewing ten, twenty, or even one hundred candidates--the one who was sincerely willing to put forth his very best effort. If you have the attitude of wanting to do your very best for the company, of being focused on the company’s needs, of putting yourself forth as the person who will be committed and dedicated to fulfilling their needs, you will likely be the one chosen.
Why is attitude so important? Because most companies already have their full share of multi-talented superstars who care about no one but themselves. Ask any manager who the most valuable member of his team is, and he will point not to the overrated superstar, but to the person who has the “can do” attitude, the person who can be counted on in any situation, the person who truly strives for excellence. Give me a team player who is achieving at 99% and I will take her over a flashy superstar who is running at 50% efficiency any day of the week. And so will 99% of all hiring managers.
So don’t worry if you are not “superstar” quality. If you can show me, in your words and actions, that you are ready to put forth your very best effort toward achieving excellence, you will be chosen over the superstar. You can show your winning attitude in the way you present yourself. Incorporate the actual words “positive attitude,” “excellence,” and “striving to be my best” into your interview language. Then show by your stories and examples how these words positively affect your life. Show me when and where and how you have put forth extra effort above and beyond the call of duty. Show me how you beat a deadline, how you excelled in a project, or how you made a difference by going the extra mile. If you can show me, by words and examples, your “can do” attitude, it is you I will hire, while all of the superstars will receive polite rejection letters to add to their growing collections.

75. 把close改成closure。the …of 结构中间应该用名词。

80. 去掉 north前的the。north在这里用作副词。
Part Ⅴ
Sample Writing
Dear Sir,
I am interested in your Master’s degree in Architecture, and wish to enter this program in Fall of 2004. My academic background is as follows:
A citizen of the People’s Republic of China, I am 26 years old. In 1999, I graduated and earned a diploma from Hunan University with a major in Architecture. Hunan University is a key university in the Chinese educational system. There I have the chances to listen to many famous scientists’ report on the most advanced subjects. Most of the professors of my classes are authorities in this area. They taught me not only the knowledge but also the principle on how to be an excellent architect. Hunan University has a big library that houses millions of books, which gives me exhaustive new readings and information. I have made strong foundation on my major through the four-year study and I am the top student in my departmentIf I am lucky enough to advance my future study in your esteemed university, I will go on with my favorite field of Architecture. As I studied more on Architecture, I frequently found my knowledge confined. I realized I should pursue graduate study to broaden my views, to stimulate more original ideas, and to establish my own systematic way in design. In graduate study, I would like to devote more thoughts to Urban Design, Culture and Technology, Design Theories, and Computational Design.
Your early reply will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely yours,
Yang Ming
