Directions: Read the texts from an article, For five questions, match each rule (1 to 5) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answer on your ANSWER SHEET.Bob Davis: It was so loud that I couldn’t hear my own voice. You see, I had a terrible headache. I couldn’t sleep at all that night. I just tossed and turned. In the morning I phoned the police, but they said they couldn’t do anything about it. Why not Don’t I have a right to peace and quiet inside my own home I tell you, next time the van comes, I am going to get a hammer and smash its windows.Mr. White: Making a noise isn’t a crime, so I can’t prevent it. Mr. Davis should complain to the ice-cream company. I’m sure they would agree to turn down the volume a little, for the sake of good public relations. I mean, if he starts smashing windows, I’ll have to arrest him, however much I sympathize with you.Mr. Bolton: Of course we have to make a noise. If we didn’t, the kids wouldn’t know we were there, would you And then they wouldn’t get their ice-creams. I mean, we have to make a living, don’t we Besides, everyone knows our jingle and they love it. It is one of the most popular sounds in town. If Mr. Davis doesn’t like it, he can just close his windows.Mrs. Green: There are plenty of ice-cream shops in town. Anyone who wants to buy an ice-cream can go and buy one from the shop. Why should we all put up with that terrible noise just so a few people can buy their ice-creams without going to the shop I mean, what would happen if I sold my fruit the same way Or all the other shopkeepers The noise would be unbearable, wouldn’t it We would all go deaf, wouldn’t we It seems to me the ice-cream company is making money at everyone else’s expense.Mr. Croft: We’re following a very old tradition. For thousands of years merchants in this city have identified themselves with individual sounds: bells, whistles, shouts and so on. We’ve chosen a nice tune which children can remember. Our jingle is one of many natural neighbor hood sounds. For example: church bells, school singing, cheering at football matches and so on. Well, it isn’t noisy and it’s not unpleasant. If making a noise were a crime, then car horns, washing machines and road drills would all be forbidden. Now match each of the schools to the appropriate statement. Note: there are two extra statements.[A] The ice-cream van should stop making such noise and the ice-cream company is making money at everyone else’s expense.[B] A policeman can’t arrest those who make a noise, but he will arrest those if they start smashing the windows of the ice-cream van.[C] Some people perhaps get used to the noise around them but a lot of people can’t and don’t.[D] I can’t stand the noise and I have a right to peace and quiet inside my own home[E] Very loud noises can cause brain damage and nervous diseases.[F] I have to play a jingle to attract the children’s attention, I mean, we have to make a living.[G] Using a familiar sound to attract customers is an old tradition, and I don’t agree that the jingle the company has chosen is noisy and unpleasant. ( ) Mrs. Green

Part ADirections: Read the following texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answer on ANSWEB SHEET.Text 1 As my father grew old he became odd. He became mean where once he had been open-handed, and complained about the bills run up by the students who sometimes lived with him. He often woke up at four in the morning and started to go out of the house. And he mislaid things, but he had never in his life had to find anything or file anything. He told the same stories, but he had always repeated stories, absorbed in the telling and unaware of the listener’s expression of recognition or boredom. Now he had fewer stories to tell. But the structure of his personality remained intact and his mind was as keen and fresh, as alert to anything new and interesting as it had ever been. The spring before he died I gave a seminar to a group who thought of themselves as avant-guard (先锋派), but he was the most searching questions. In the summer of 1956, after he had to move from the little house in which all the mementos of his life were in place, he was obviously failing. Although his grandchildren found a hotel in which he could live independently and still cause little trouble by leaving his door open or the bath running, because there was someone to watch out for such things, he felt close to the end. When summer school was over, his club, which he had founded and in which he ate lunch every day, closed. He was more alone, but the nephew of an old friend had breakfast with him to be sure that he had one good meal a day, and he himself made a last effort to see those of his old friends who were still alive. He died in his sleep the night he knew I was crossing the Atlantic on my way home. It was my father whose career was limited by the number of his children and his health, who defined for me my place in the world. Although I have acted on a wider stage than either my mother or my father, it is still the same stage—the same world, only with wider dimensions. I have been fortunate in being able to look up to my parents’ minds well past my own middle years. And I watched my father grow—he rejected his earlier racial prejudices and came to respect new institutions of the federal government, such as Social Security and public ownership. Watching a parents grow is one of the most reassuring experiences anyone can have, a privilege that comes only to those whose parents live beyond their children’ s early adulthood. The last paragraph tells the reader that the author’s father ______.
