Part III: Reading Comprehension (40%) (40 minutes)

You should choose the best answer then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Many teenagers feel that the most important people in their lives are their friends. They believe that their family members, especially their parents, do not know them as well as their friends do. In large families, it is quite often for brothers and sisters to fight with each other and then they can only go to their friends for advice.
Of course, it is important for teenagers to have a nice and warm family. It is very necessary for them to have one or several good friends; they usually spend a lot of time talking among themselves on the telephone. This communication is very important in children’s growing up, because friends can discuss something difficult to say to their family members.
However, parents often try to choose their children’s friends for them. Some parents may even stop their children from meeting their good friends. The question of “which friends to choose” is an interesting one. Have you ever thought of the following questions?
---- Who chooses your friends?
---- Do you choose your friends or your friends choose you?
---- Have you got a good friend or your parents don’t like?
---- Why do parents want to choose friends for you?
．．．．．．
You can always discuss these questions with your friends.

Business people often spend time and money in improving their ability in using foreign languages in order to be able to communicate with other business people from around the world. Language, of course, is very important but it is only half the problem.
When we are doing business with people of other cultures, there are always rules that we can’t notice easily. It is all too easy to “put your foot in it” by making mistakes which can make your foreign friends unhappy.
In the West, business cards are given a quick look and put into the pocket. In Japan, they are highly regarded, carefully looked at and left on the table during a business meeting.
In Britain, most business meetings would include a joke. In many other countries, this would be very rare.
Small talk and relationship building are considered very important in some parts of the world; people talk about the weather, the wine and other small things before they begin to talk about business. In other places, people get down to business immediately.
Therefore, we should always remember that national backgrounds, personal backgrounds and even company culture all play in successful communication with people from different cultures.

Have you ever heard of the sayings. “Never judge a book by its cover”? This is a good rule to follow when you are trying to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have minds that shine only in certain situation. A young man with an unusual gift in writing may find himself unable to say a single word in front of a pretty girl. When he speaks, he may not be able to find the right words. But don’t make the mistakes of thinking him stupid; with a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.
Other people may fool you into thinking highly of their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens carefully and takes notes in class is found to make a favorable impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class.
It all boils down to this: you can’t judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a person’s intelligence is to get to know him or her.

Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time.
This new technology will let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about. I know from personal experience.
E-mail makes it easy for me to work at home, which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings. My working hours aren’t much shorter than they once were, but I spend fewer of them at the office. This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she’d been born before electronic mail (e-mail) became such a practical tool.
With e-mail, I just write one note about my experience, at my convenience, instead of calling my friends one by one, I address it to them. They can read my message when they have time, and read only as much as they want to do. They can reply at their convenience, and I can read what they have to say at my convenience.
E-mail is also an expensive way to stay I close touch with people who live far away. More than a few parents use e-mail to keep in touch, even daily touch, with their children off at college.
We just have to keep it in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch. They don’t eliminate any of the old ways.
