If you asked people today why they used the telephone to communicate with their friends or why they turned to the television for entertainment, they would look at you as if you were crazy. We don’t 21 about a telephone or a television or a car as being oddities（新奇东西）.These things have become such a 22 part of life that they are no longer 23 , let alone remarked upon.
In the 24 way, within a decade no one 25 notice the Web. It will just be there, a necessary part of life. It will be a 26 reaction to turn to the 27 for shopping, education, entertainment and communication, just as it is natural today to pick up the telephone to talk to 28 .
There is incredible 29 in the Web. Yet it is still in its infancy. The technology 30 the speed of response are about to 31 forward. This will move more and more people to the Web as part of their everyday lives. 32 , everyone’s business card will have an 33 mail address. Every lawyer, every doctor and every businessman-from large to small-will be 34 .
In United States elections, people now turn to the Internet to see 35 results. The Pathfinder mission to Mars and the 36 with the Mir Space Station drew millions of people to the Web for more up-to-date details than they were available elsewhere.
A change like this is often 37 from generation to generation. Older people have to 38 something new outside their everyday experiences. Kids who grow up with a new technology simply treat 39 as given. College campuses in 40 are providing the necessary element to create the critical mass for a Web ready culture.

第二部分：阅读理解（共25小题；第一节每小题2分，第二节每小题2分；满分50分）
A
Applying for a job in the United States involves a few specific steps. After finding a job that interests you, you must prepare a resume to submit to the company. Then, if the company is interested, they will arrange an interview with you. Knowing what to expect and how to prepare for this process is the key to finding the right job.
When preparing a resume, it is important that you know what information to include. The main purpose of a resume is to give employers a brief overview of your work experience and background. You should focus on experience that is related to the job you are applying for. Be sure to state your goals and objectives briefly. Your objectives should clearly describe what kind of position you hope to obtain. Also include information about your educational background, such as the name of the institution, the year of graduation and the degree you received. In the United States you should not include information about your physical appearance, age, marital status or hobbies. People do not normally include a photograph either, which may seem strange to people who are not from the U.S. Employers cannot decide whom to hire based on this information, unless it is directly related to the day-to-day duties of the position.
After your resume has been reviewed you may be asked to go in for an interview to discuss the position further. This is very important part of the process. Not only is it your opportunity to make a good impression, but it also gives a chance to get an impression of the company. On the day of the interview you should pay close attention to your appearance; dress properly, have a neat hairstyle and clean fingernail. You should look as if you already have the job. It is considered polite to arrive a few minutes before the scheduled appointment. If you cannot avoid being delayed, it is best to call and let the interviewer know this. During the interview you will be asked to talk more about the information you provided in your resume. You will probably have to answer questions about your strengths and weaknesses and how you would react in difficult situations.
Immediately after the interview it is a good idea-but not necessary-to send a short note or email to the interviewer. In this note you should thank the person for meeting with you and reaffirm your interest in the job. At this point in the job application process all you can do is wait for a response from the company If you take the time to be fully prepared and informed about this process, you will be well on your way to finding the right job.
41．Which of the following is not a step in the process of finding a job in the U.S.?
A．Sending a resume. B．Being interviewed.
C．Including a photography. D．Writing a short note.
42．A resume is known as a .

C．job interview D．work experience
43．What shouldn’t you do on the day of your interview?
A．Arrive late. B．Dress nicely
C．Make a good impression D．Talk about your job.
44．What should you do if the interviewer asks what you are good at?
A．Be modest. B．Be honest.
C．Refuse to answer the question. D．Be silent.

There is a debate going on in American public schools over the best way to teach English to foreign students. Many schools use bi- lingual education. This means that students study their core subject classes such as science, mathematics and social studies in their native tongue. They also take a few hours of English.
Recently, many educators have begun to criticize bi-lingual education. Opponents claim that bi-lingual education not only slows students’ development of language skills, but also their adjustment to American life. They often remain separated from the mainstream student body. These critics have proposed the immersion（融入）method. This means that a student will take only English classes until they can function effectively in regular subject classes. Proponents of immersion theory argue that in order to prepare these foreign students for college or the job market, they must be able to communicate in English.
Despite this disagreement, nearly all educators agree that English is a necessary tool for improving the quality of one’s life in America.
45．In bi-lingual education programs, students .
A．study in their native country
B．study their core subject classes in their native language
C．study only English until they can function in regular classes
D．mainly work on adjustment to American life
46．A proponent is someone who .
A．supports a certain idea or policy
B．is against a certain idea or policy

Who is there among us who hasn’t dreamed of having his or her own small (maybe , several years later , even big )business , and having wonderful freedom , both from a boss and from the time clock ; the freedom to make up our own rules for our work , and our own plans —arranging our own hours of work ?

Well , in fact it isn’t quite as simple as that . Yes , it is true that being the boss has its satisfactions and that you can arrange your working hours freely if you own your own small business .

E
The old idea that child prodigies（神童） “burn themselves” or “overtax their brains” in the early years, therefore, are prey to failure and (at worst) mental illness is just a myth. As a matter of fact, the outstanding thing that happens to bright children is that they are very likely to grow into bright adults. To find this out, 1,500 gifted persons were followed up to their thirty-fifth year with these results: On adult intelligence tests, they scored as high as they did as children. They were, as a group, in good health, physically and mentally. Eighty-four percent of their group were married and seemed content with their life.
About 70 percent had graduated from colleges, though only 30 percent had graduated with honors. A few had even flunked out（退学）,but nearly half of these had returned to graduate.
Of the men, 80 percent were in one of the professions or in business, managers or semiprofessional jobs. The women who had remained single had offices, business, or professional occupations.
The group had published 90 books and 1,500 articles in scientific, scholarly, and literary magazines and had collected more than 100 patents（专利权）.
In a material way they didn’t do badly either. Average income was considerably higher among the gifted people, especially the men, than for the country as a whole, despite their comparative youth when last surveyed.
In fact, far from being strange, maladjusted（难以适应）people locked in an ivory tower, most of the gifted were turning their early promises into practical reality.
57．From the passage, we can conclude that .
A．most of the gifted children became white collars
B．half of the gifted followed up graduated from colleges
C．each of the talented published at least one article
D．bright men got higher income than bright women
58．Which of the following is mentioned in the passage?
A．The gifted could not be fit for their social positions.
B．Most of the bright and successful women kept single.
C．The gifted men got full marks in intelligence tests.
D．Most of the gifted appeared satisfied with their life.
59．The underlined part “turning their early promises into practical reality” most probably means .
A．earning their living and keeping promises
B．doing practical jobs and facing reality
C．doing what they have promised
D．realizing what they were expected
60．The main idea of the passage is .
A．how many gifted children turned successful when they grew up
B．that bright children were unlikely to be physically and mentally healthy
C．that gifted children were most likely to become bright grown-ups
D．that when the bright children grew up, they would become ordinary
