Passage Four There was once a man in South America who had a
parrot (鹦鹉), a pet bird that could imitate (模拟), human speech. The p
arrot was unique. There was no other bird like him in the whole world.
He could learn to say any word except one. He could not say the name
of his native town, Cotano. The man did everything he could to teach t
he parrot to say “Cotono” but he never succeeded. At first he was ver
y gentle with the bird, but gradually he lost his temper, “You stupid bir
d! Why can’t you learn to say that One word! Say ‘Cotano’ or I’ll kill you
!” But the parrot would not say it. Many times , the man screamed (大
声叫), “Say ‘Cotano’ or I’ll kill you!” But the bird would never repeat the
name. Finally the man gave up. He picked up the parrot and threw him
into the chicken house. “You are even more stupid than the chickens!
”
In the chicken house, there were four old chickens waiting to be kille
d for Sunday’s dinner. The next morning, when he went out to the chic
ken house, the man opened the door. He was shocked by what he sa
w. He could not believe his eyes and ears. On the floor lay three dead
chickens, the parrot was screaming at the fourth, “Say ‘Cotono’ or I’ll k
ill you!”

Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points)
Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is follo
wed by five questions or statements. Choose the best answer to each
learn.open.com .cn/S tudentC enter/O nLineJob/P aper?courseE xerciseId=316508& key=9e2ede5c50bcκ 7/12
question or decide T/F for each statement.
Passage One
People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean
that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain liv
e in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This
means that they can make them personal, and change them in any wa
y they like- Most houses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and th
e garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private sp
ace of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a
private space which is only for him or herself and for invited friends.
People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you ma
y have spread your towels around you; on the train you may have put
your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spr
ead your books around you.
Once I was travelling on a train to London. I was in a section for four p
eople and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had
his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table
at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole ta
ble. I had been reading a book about nonverbal communication, so I to
ok various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did
this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out of his
head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers of
f in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of t
he table.

Passage Two There are about 5,000 different kinds of ladybugs in th
e world. They come in many different colors. Their bright colors warn
other animals or insects not to eat them. Ladybugs taste bad. A bird or
a frog that eats a ladybug will remember the bright colors and it will no
t eat another ladybug with the same colors again. When ladybugs are i
n danger, they will give out a fluid (液体) that tastes terrible.
In many cultures, the ladybug is considered to be a symbol of good lu
ck. Most ladybugs are kind to humans. They eat other insects which d
estroy crops. One ladybug can eat up to 5,000 insets in its lifetime.
Ladybugs have six short legs. They live in many different places, inclu
ding green lands, forests, cities, the countryside and along rivers. Diff
erent ladybugs have different spots (点). Some of them don’t have spo
ts at all. The most common kind in North America is the 7-spotted lady
bug. The 7-spotted ladybugs are the most active from spring to autum
n. When the weather turns cold, they look for a warm place to sleep, s
uch as under stones or in houses.

The workers who brought the girl to the orphanage（孤儿院）kne
w little about her. The streets where they found her had been her
home for many years. Her parents were unknown. They left her lo
ng ago. At the orphanage, the girl, like all the children there, was
taught to read and write. While she was studying at the orphana
ge, she learned something else－to be independent. At twenty-o
ne，she left the orphanage and began work as a secretary. And th
en，in 1975, while she was still working as an ordinary secretary,
something special happened. She entered the Miss Hong Kong co
mpetition and won it. This was the turning point in her life. Now
her name, Mary Cheung, was known to everybody.
Mary entered the competition because she wanted to show that
orphanage girls could be something. Winning the competition g
ave her the chance to start a new life. This led her first into televis
ion and then into business as a manager. When she was working
as a manager, she had trouble with her reports. “My English just
wasn't good enough.” she says. Luckily, she had a boyfriend (wh
o later became her husband) to help her.
Mary studied management at Hong Kong Polytechnic and gradua
ted in 1980. She started her own business in 1985. But she did no
t stop developing herself. She then studied at the University of H
ong Kong. Since 1987, she had spent a lot of time on photograp
hy. She has held several exhibitions of her work in many places－
China, New Zealand and Paris. She still found time, however, to
work on TV, write for newspapers and bring up her family.

ot finished yet.
