PART ⅡREADING COMPREHENSION（45 MIN）

SECTION A MULTIPLE-CHOICE QUESTIONS

In this section there are several passages followed by fourteen multiple choice questions. For each multiple

choice question, there are four suggested answers marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Choose the one that you think is

the best answer and mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET TWO.

PASSAGE ONE

(1) When it came to concealing his troubles, Tommy Wilhelm was not less capable than the next fellow. So at

least he thought, and there was a certain amount of evidence to back him up. He had once been an actor—no, not

quite, an extra—and he knew what acting should be. Also, he was smoking a cigar, and when a man is smoking a

cigar, wearing a hat, he has an advantage; it is harder to find out how he feels. He came from the twenty-third floor

down to the lobby on the mezzanine to collect his mail before breakfast, and he believed — he hoped — that he

looked passably well: doing all right. It was a matter of sheer hope, because there was not much that he could add

to his present effort. On the fourteenth floor he looked for his father to enter the elevator; they often met at this hour,

on the way to breakfast. If he worried about his appearance it was mainly for his old father’s sake. But there was no

stop on the fourteenth, and the elevator sank and sank. Then the smooth door opened and the great dark-red uneven

carpet that covered the lobby billowed toward Wilhelm’s feet. In the foreground the lobby was dark, sleepy. French

drapes like sails kept out the sun, but three high, narrow windows were open, and in the blue air Wilhelm saw a

pigeon about to light on the great chain that supported the marquee of the movie house directly underneath the

lobby. For one moment he heard the wings beating strongly.

(2) Most of the guests at the Hotel Gloriana were past the age of retirement. Along Broadway in the Seventies,

Eighties, and Nineties,a great part of New York’s vast population of old men and women lives. Unless the weather

is too cold or wet they fill the benches about the tiny railed parks and along the subway gratings from Verdi Square

to Columbia University, they crowd the shops and cafeterias, the dime stores, the tearooms, the bakeries, the beauty

parlors, the reading rooms and club rooms. Among these old people at the Gloriana, Wilhelm felt out of place. He

was comparatively young, in his middle forties, large and blond，with big shoulders；his back was heavy and strong，

if already a little stooped or thickened.After breakfast the old guests sat down on the green leather armchairs and

sofas in the lobby and began to gossip and look into the papers；they had nothing to do but wait out the day.But

Wilhelm was used to an active life and liked to go out energetically in the morning.And for several months，because

he had no position，he had kept up his morale by rising early；he was shaved and in the lobby by eight o’clock.He

bought the paper and some cigars and drank a Coca-Cola or two before he went in to breakfast with his father.After

breakfast—out，out，out to attend to business.The getting out had in itself become the chief business.But he had

realized that he could not keep this up much longer，and today he was afraid.He was aware that his routine was

about to break up and he sensed that a huge trouble long presaged（预感）but till now formless was due.Before

evening，he’d know.

（3）Nevertheless he followed his daily course and crossed the lobby.

（4）Rubin，the man at the newsstand，had poor eyes.They may not have been actually weak but they were

poor in expression，with lacy lids that furled down at the corners.He dressed well.It didn’t seem necessary—he was

behind the counter most of the time—but he dressed very well.He had on a rich brown suit；the cuffs embarrassed

the hairs on his small hands.He wore a Countess Mara painted necktie. As Wilhelm approached，Rubin did not see

him；he was looking out dreamily at the Hotel Ansonia，which was visible from his corner，several blocks away.The

Ansonia，the neighborhood’s great landmark ，was built by Stanford White.It looks like a baroque palace from

Prague or Munich enlarged a hundred times，with towers，domes，huge swells and bubbles of metal gone green

from exposure, iron fretwork and festoons. Black television antennae are densely planted on its round

summits.Under the changes of weather it may look like marble or like sea water，black as slate in the fog，white as

tufa in sunlight.This morning it looked like the image of itself reflected in deep water，white and cumulous above，
