Faces, like fingerprints are unique. Did you 11 wonder how it is possible for us to 12 people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the 13 that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child-- 14 an animal, such as a cat----can learn to recognize faces. We all 15 this ability for granted. We also tell people 16 by observing how they behave .When we talk about someones personality, we mean the 17 in which he or she acts, speaks, thinks or feels that 18 that individual different from others. Like the human face, human personality is very complex. But describing someones personality 19 words is somewhat easier than 20 his face.

Passage one Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. Many visitors finds the fast pace at which American people move very troubling. Ones first impression is likely to be that everyone is in a rush .City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going and are very impatient if they are delayed even for a brief moment. At first, this may seem unfriendly to you. But drivers will rush you ; storekeepers will be in a hurry as they serve you ; people will push past you as they walk along the street . You will miss smiles, brief conversations with people as you shop or dine away from home . Do not think that because Americans are in such a hurry they are unfriendly. Often , life is much slower outside the big cities, as is true in other countries as well. Americans who live in cities such as New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles, often think that everyone is equally in a hurry to get things done; they expect others to "push back", just as city people do in Tokyo, Singapore or Paris, for example . But when they discover that you are a stranger, most Americans become quite kindly and will take great care to help you. Many of them first came to the city as strangers and they remember how frightening a new city can be .If you need help or want to ask a question , choose a friendly looking person and say," I am a stranger here. Can you help me ?" Most people will stop, smile at you, and help you find you way or answer your questions. But you must let them know that you need help. Otherwise they are likely to pass you by, not noticing that you are new to the city and in need of help. Occasionally, you may find someone too busy or perhaps too rushed to give you aid. If this happens, do not be discouraged; just ask someone else. Most Americans enjoy helping a stranger.
21. Many people who first visit the United States will find that ____.
22. When the author says " You will miss smile ", he means ____.
23. In the author's opinion, _____.
24. The author mentions big cities such as Tokyo, Singapore and Paris _____.
25. If you say to an American that you are a stranger there, most probably be will ____.
Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. Mark felt that it was time for him to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work.. The areas city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing . The neighborhood faced many problems. Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings . People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.. It was too much for Mark. " The problems are too big ," he thought . He turned to the man next to him and said, "I think this is a waste of my time . Nothing I could do would make a difference here." Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. "People should just take care of themselves , " he decided. "Thats enough to do . I cant take on all the problems of the world." As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didnt have a free hand . As Mark got closer, her other child , a littlle boy , suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and groceries started to fall out .

Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. In every society it is necessary to have a general system of laws to ensure justice. Laws are designed to make certain that peoples rights are protected and that people respect each others rights. Sometimes, however, laws are passed which are specific to a time or situation. For example , a town in Indiana once passed a law making it illegal to shoot open a can of food . Apparently, some gun-carrying citizens forgot their can openers and naturally enough, used their guns to do the job. This disturbed other citizens, and endangered their lives, so a law was passed to prevent it. Specific laws sometimes remain in existence long after the problem has disappeared. The laws then seem strange. For example , the Indiana law was no longer necessary when citizens stopped carrying guns and using them as can openers. Since the law was no longer needed, what once made sense now seems like nonsense. Sometimes laws designed to serve a good purpose were passed but somehow these became mixed up in their wording. As a result, the laws dont make sense. In one state there is a law which says that it is "illegal to move or to attempt to move a motor vehicle." Obvionsly, a massive traffic jam would occur if everyone suddenly obeyed that law . But no one does, of course, because the intention of the law was not to prevent owners from moving their own cars . It was to prevent people from moving (stealing) other peoples cars. It is often harder to repeal (废止)a law than to pass one, so many of these old laws remain in existence. Because they no longer fit the way people live or because the problem no longer exists, these laws are ignored. Everyone understands that and life goes on. Thus, laws that once made very good sense, now seem like nonsense.
31. According to the passage, laws are designed for the purpose of______.
32. The word "job " in paragraph 1 refers to _____.
33. The author used the Indiana law as an example to explain _____.
34. What's the problem with the law concerning motor vehicles?
