Paris (Reuters)---- It’s summer in Paris and the French capital is preparing to offer bikes for anyone who wants to take a ride.
By July 15, the city plans to park 10,648 bikes at 750 stations and nearly double that by 2008 ,with riders able to take bikes from one station and drop them off at another. Work on “Velib”(short for free bike in French) is just starting, but it is already sparking enormous interest.The concept evolved from utopianbike-sharing programs in Europe in the 1960’s, aimed at reducing the use of cars and cutting down on traffic congestion and air pollution.The most famous case was Amsterdam---- a failure because bikes were either stolen or too beaten-up to ride. Now many cities are giving it a go again by partnering with advertising firms that will provide bikes equipped with anti-theft systems in return for city-wide advertising opportunities.
In the residential 15th district in southwestern Paris, a parking spot next to a corner café is being adapted to become a fleet of beautiful grey bicycles.
“I think the program is a good thing , and it helps reduce the number of cars on the street,” said Jean-Michel Bourdet, who owns a nearby video store.
“I used to ride bikes all the time, but they all kept getting stolen. I am going to start riding again,” he said.
1. What is the purpose of this bike-sharing program?
A. offer free ride for the poor people B. offer free ride for those who don’t want to use public transportation
C. cut down on traffic jams and air pollution. D. encourage people to use public transportation
2. What did Paris do to ensure the success of the program?
A .increase the number of bikes B. open more stations
C. partner with advertising firms D.offer wider city advertising opportunities.
3. What can we infer from the passage?
A more people will buy bikes B the city will become cleaner
C few people will take buses D fewer cars will be stolen
B
When Anthoney Kluk set off for Leeds University to read physics with two Asand two Bs in his pocket he thought it was going to be the first day of the rest of his life: a bright new start in a brave new world. It didn’t quite work out likethat.
“Once I got to university I found myself repeating the material I had studied for the last two years. I was forced to spend hours in the laboratory doing what can only be described as watching paint dry.” “And since Leeds was filled with alcohol-fuelled distraction, as well as my complete lack of motivation, I started every day with a hangover. I decided to cut my losses and start my career.” One year into his course he dropped out. Two years on he is happily employed as a corporate banker. Similar self-doubt has also crept into the campuses of Oxford and Cambridge. None of this is what Toney Blair wants to hear with his vision of a country where half the population is university-educated.
At first glance the need for a degree is no-brainer. Professions allow entry only to graduates, and many companies insist on recruits people with a degree---or even two. Yet employers also insist that a degree alone is not an accurate measure of employability; indeed 40% of them believe the qualification has become devalued. Some of the most important skills---- innumeracy , literacy and communication ---are supposed to be instilled in school but are still lacking in many students emerging from university.
4.What attitude does the writer take towards universities in Britain?
A. positive B. negative C. objective D. subjective
5. Why did a student dropped out of the university?
A. because the material was old B. because he lacked motivation
C. because it was a waste of time D. because many students drank
6. From the passage we can infer________.
A. employers only hire a person with a degree
B. a recruit with a degree can always do a better job
C. most of important skills are learned in schools
D. many graduates lack basic skills which should be gained at school
四、任務型閱讀
閱讀下篇短文，然后根據短文內容在表格的每空處填一個恰當的詞。
Some people believe that greed and selfishness has become the basis of modern society, and we should return to the old traditions of family and community then we will have a better life. To what extent do you agree or disagree with the above opinion?
In this fast-paced world, many values are undergoing major changes. While people traditionally prioritize caring, sharing and generosity in life and work, modern people seem to be more self-absorbed and self-concerned.
Modern people act selfishly to survive the harsh competition of life. They say that it is a jungle out there. To survive, you have to fight with whatever means that come handy. Obviously greedy and selfishness go perfectly well with such ideas. In a company, employees do everything they can to get better pay and higher position, even at the cost of colleagues. We are in any way advocating any selfish conduct. It is just that people are pressured to act in a certain way due to outside influences.
In spite of common practice, it is hard to conclude that modern society is built on greed and selfishness, both of which are not newly invented vocabulary. In ancient times people also did greedy and selfish things though such behaviors were more condemned then. But we can not ignore the fact that people in the past lived a relatively more isolated life and faced less pressure compared with their modern counterparts.
Are we happier to share with others and be generous to them? There is no fixed answer either. Some people take great pleasure helping and giving to others while others feel happy doing the opposite. But I personally think that people should not be too selfish. Caring for others can actually encourage the development of a mutually beneficial relationship.
In conclusion, modern people appear to be more self-centered than those in the past due to strong outside pressure. However, we should encourage people to know the importance of being caring and generous and to build a mutually beneficial relationship with others.
Are Modern People Becoming More Selfish?

二、閱讀理解
A
My wife and I got our first jobs in New York years ago in a fur factory, located in a street on Broadway.
I believe that most Americans would not want my job. I worked from nine to five , six days a week. The room I worked in was 14 by 20 feet. Ten people worked in that space. There were no windows. We were given twenty minutes for lunch. The pay was all on a piece-rate that worked out to be less than minimum wage. We got paid in cash and there was no overtime pay. Also, the factory offered no accommodations so we had to find place to live in. Finally I got a place at the subway station for free. Our life here was difficult in many different ways.
Most of all, the fur factory, didn’t officially exist because it had no legal papers. In those days, immigration used to search this street unexpectedly. One day, immigration came here suddenly, asking for our papers. Men and women in the factory dived into piles of clothes, or tried to hide in the toilet. Later I was told that one of my friends working in a neighboring restaurant had even hidden in the freezer for 20 minutes.
Most of time, we were afraid of being caught by the officers in immigration, which made us worried over the years. If we were unluckily caught, we would be driven back to Ecuador [厄瓜多爾] for sure. Therefore, this possibility made us upset, which was not like the life in Ecuador. There we were part of Ecuador’s middle class. She was a music teacher, working in a private school, and I work in a government office. Although we belonged to the middle class in our hometown, we still wanted to make more money in America. Getting from Ecuador to New York required a lot of money at that time and it was really a luxury for people of a middle class in our country. However, a lot of our friends in Ecuador often struggled to live and work in America because there were more opportunities to develop themselves in this developed country.
Since then, my wife and I decided to move again. And we went to Jersey City---of all the places I had dreamed of visiting.
1. Which of the following is NOT the factor why the writer didn’t like the job in the fur factory?
A. The resting hour between the work was too short. B. The working place was too small.
C. The pay they got was too low. D. They could have a long break between their work.
2. Which of the following statements is true according to the writer?
A. Over the years, most of their relatives had come to New York.
B. His wife was a lab technician, and he worked in a government office in Ecuador.
C. Getting from Ecuador to New York required a lot of money.
D. They led a difficult life in Ecuador.
3. According to the passage, what was the writer’s constant fear?
A. They would be out of work and couldn’t earn more money.B. The immigration officers would inspect them.
C. The factory would fire them. D. They had no hope of succeeding in America.
4. Why did men and women hide anywhere?
A. To escape the search by immigration officers. B. To avoid the gas bomb.
C. To search for something. D. To escape the punishment by the boss.
B
When cold weather is coming, some birds will hibernate. However, other birds will leave us to fly away to the warm places, leaving human beings to deal with the snow and ice. So the bird’s migrations always puzzle many people, because birds don’t have maps---so how do they know where they’re going? And how do they get the energy to get there? Now look at following tips given by the researchers and you’ll know the reasons.
How do they know where to go?
。Sighting the landscape features like rivers, coastlines, and mountain ranges.
。Flying by Earth’s magnetic field, obviously with their visual system and with something called magnetite[磁鐵礦] in their heads.
。Using the stars for guidance at night or if the weather is not sunny.
。Using the sense of smell.
。Probably with the help of their neighbors or experienced birds. It is observed that many birds migrate in large flocks, followed by their neighbors and experienced birds.
How do they get the energy to get to the destination?
。Flying slowly and steadily. This is the most basic way that birds use. Many other birds migrants keep beating their wings until they land during their long journey.
。Taking advantage of updrafts. Smarter birds know how to make full use of updrafts of air caused by solar heating, to take a free ride high into the sky.
。Flapping and gliding(moving in a smooth, effortless manner). These birds wave their wings for a few beats, and then glide for a while. After they lose some speed, they flat some more.
。Bounding (Leaping forward or upward). This is a combination of flapping and gliding.
5. What does the text mainly tell us?
A. The birds migrants are good at flying. B. How birds know the direction and the good way of flying
C. The birds migrants are good at finding ways. D. The birds will fly to warm places when winter comes.
6. Which of following is NOT true about how birds find the direction?
A. Birds can use the sun for help. B. Birds can observe the landscape.
C. Birds can use the weather condition. D. Birds can be guided by the stars.
7. Which of the following means the underlined word “updrafts”?
A. a strong wind against birds B. heat given out by the sun
C. a rising current of warm air D. weather condition
8. What does the underlined word “flapping” mean in the passage?
A. waving wings up and down B. closing wings for a short while
C. following down all the time D. resting wings on the body of another bird
