Passage 2
Have you ever heard “Tuhao, let’s be friends”? Are you puzzled, wondering
61
it means? Then you’re possibly out of date.
Nowadays, the Chinese words “tuhao” and “dama” have become so familiar
62
many Chinese people that they often play jokes on each other when
63
(chat) about the daily life. For example, if you take out your new
64
(fashion) mobile phone, your naughty friends may call you “tuhao”, laughing loudly and happily.
Amazingly, the two wildly popular words have become hot words in English too. Recently, the BBC
65
(produce) a program to introduce “tuhao”.
66
the Internet, “tuhao” can be translated into “new money (暴发户)” in English. Besides, The Wall Street Journal has also borrowed “dama” from the Chinese pinyin
67
(describe) bargain-hunting middle-aged Chinese women, calling
68
“a force in the global gold market”. Experts say
69
Chinese language’s influence on English will continue during the entire 21st century,
70
it is expected that “tuhao” will be welcomed by the Oxford University Press to appear in the new word lists.
Passage 3
Mike: I’d like to buy a computer. Could you please give me
61
advice?
Rose: Yes, with
62
(please). I’ve got some information about computers. Computers with a P4 work much
63
(fast) than other ones.
Mike : How about computers with a P3 ?
Rose: Oh, very good,
64
they don’t work as fast as P4 computers, yet they are much cheaper. Generally
65
(speak), they can meet people’s
66
very well.
Mike: I think I
67
buy the fastest one I can get. My old computer was out of work lately. It
68
(work) slowly. I’ve got tired of that working speed.
Rose: I don’t think
69
is necessary for you to buy the fastest one. It would be a waste of money. A P3 computer is
70
( probable) good enough for you.
Mike: Thank you for your advice. Can you help me choose one?
Passage 4
Lori:
Good morning, Chuck. Are you here
66
(wait) for Professor Johnson?
Chuck: Oh, yes. Good morning, Lori. The professor asked me to come here
67
(have) an interview. Do you know something about job as
68
teacher’s assistant?
Lori:
Oh, yes. I know all about it
69
I have work experience in this field. Last year, I did it for a long time.
Chuck: Really? How did you like
70
?
Lori:
Well, actually I think it was
71
(good) I had ever had at school. I was paid nine dollars an hour, which
72
(be) three dollars more than the school post office paid us.
Chuck: Yeah, I bet this is a good salary. But what did you do?
Lori:
My responsibility was to help Professor Johnson grade the students’ homework. It wasn’t hard and the professor was always available
73
there were any questions. I
74
improve myself through doing this job.
Chuck: I think I would enjoy this kind of work. But I’m a little worried about how much
75
it might take.
Lori:
Only about five or six hours a week and you can do that in your room.
Chuck: It sounds good.
Passage 5

Passage 6
Today I received a sweet letter from Brianna, one of my “cookies”. It was wonderful to hear
61
her. You see
62
I taught kindergarten, I called all
63
sweet children “cookies”. Brianna said that every day she would walk into kindergarten and see a smile
64
my face. I named them “cookies” because I always feel that children can bring great happiness and
65
(excite) to my life. I still feel that all children are the
66
(great) joy I could ever have.
So far I
67
(adopt) and taught children for over 35 years. All my children were
68
are now a great joy of my life.
69
(hope), I feel much fortunate to be able to use my life’s talent to teach children and have fun
70
(do) it every day. I am able to spread my wings and help my “cookies” to spread their wings.
Passage 7
Tony and I are good friends. We tried to walk across the United States of America. We’re not exactly sure why we were doing it. Part of 61 was to test ourselves; to see if we could face the challenges. When I was 62 teenager I often daydreamed that I was going to walk across the United States after I 63 (graduate) from high school.64, I didn’t do that.
Before I knew it I was 65 my thirties ,married , a job, yet still had this idea in my mind with each passing year. I figured I was too old and my opportunity 66 (pass). Then, a few years ago, I met Tony , 67
was in his thirties and quit his job as a civil engineer in New York City to walk across the United States.He wasn’t doing it for a cause as part of an organization. He was doing it 68
(simple) because he loved to walk and discover. The idea was back and I no longer had an excuse. We planned on averaging 20 miles a day and taking some days off 69 (rest), so we expected the walk to take about 6 months realizing it could take70(long). We were in no hurry: The total distance would have been about 3,100 miles.
