Passage 1

If you don't use a dictionary,what should you do instead?The first thing you can do is trying to guess what the word neans.Often the surrounding context gives a very clear idea of the meaning of the word.Even if you can't work out the meaning exactly,you may be able to get a vague idea,enough to enable you to continue reading.

Sometimes it is impossible to guess the meaning of a word from the context and then you will have to decide whether the word is important enough to make it worth while stopping and looking it up in a dictionary

，or whether you can just pass it by.

Many times in your reading,you will come across words which you don't know,but which do not prevent you from understanding all the main points of the text.You can make your dictionary use much more efficient if you only look up the words which are necessary to understand the text,and this means that you must develop the skill to decide whether the words are worth looking up.

A.without knowledge of English

B.when we look up words in a dictionary

Passage 2

There are some steps you can take yourself to avoid cat catching cold.Contrary to popular belief,colds are not caused by exposure to severe weather.Colds are caused by viruses(病毒)harbored in the body,and you're better off out on the ski slopes even waiting for the bus on a snowy day than you are in a rather warm room,surrounded by friends,co-workers,or fellow students,who just may be passing the virus around.If you feel a chill(發(fā)冷)when you're coming down with a cold,you're already sick.A shill is an early symptom:It's the cold that caused the chill,not the other way around

While the virus can spread through droplets propelled into the air when a cold-sufferer coughs or sneezes,surprisingly,this is not the most common route of transmission.Studies have now shown that the overwhelming majority of colds are “caught”by hand contact.A cold-sufferer rubs her nose,thereby transferring the virus to her hand.Then a friend comes to visit.“Don't kiss me,”she cautions,so the friend steps back and presses her hand.The friend then wipes her own nose or eye-and several days later is stricken with a cold.Or parents pick up their child's discarded tissues(面紙)and carefully throw them away,but fail to wash their hands afterward.

Cold viruses also can be transferred to objects-telephones,towels,

plates-and remain in fectious for up to three hours.Frequent hand-washing-on the part of the cold-sufferer as well as other members of the household-will minimize the spread of viruses in this way.

5)Which of the following steps you take will most probably cause you to catch a cold?

A.To expose yourself to sever weather.

B.To be on the ski slopes.

C.To wait for the bus on a snowy day.

D.To stay in a rather warm room with a lot of prople.

6)To prevent viruses from spreading,we should________.

A)shake hands with our friends instead of kissing them

B)never touch the telepones,towels or plates

C)often wash our hands

D)often rub our noses and eyes

7)The best title for this passage might be________.

A.Colds and Viruses

B.Ways to Avoid Colds

C.The Spread of Viruses

D.Hand Contact and Transmissions of Viruses

Passage 3

When young people get their first real jobs,they may tace a lot of new,confusing situations.They may find that everything is different from the way things were at school.It is also possible that they will feel uncomfortable and insecure in both professional and social situations.Eventually,they realize that university classes can't be the only preparation for all of the different situations that arise in the working world.
