[03:36.14]Section B   Passage One
[03:40.97]A long time ago,the Israelites lived happily in Egypt.
[03:47.42]But one day,a cruel man became pharaoh.
[03:52.57]king of Egypt,and he hated the Israelites.
[03:58.32]"There are too many Israelites in Egypt now",he said to himself.
[04:04.56]"and they are strong too.
[04:08.32]One day they may take over Egypt. I'd better get rid of them.
[04:14.46]So he made a law that every baby boy born into an Israelites family should be killed.
[04:22.82]and thrown into the river Nile.
[04:27.08]The pharaoh's soldiers searched all the Israelite house。
[04:32.12]and they threw every baby boy into the river.
[04:37.08]But one woman from the Levi family tried to save her baby son.
[04:44.03]So she hid him,and nobody saw him for three months.
[04:50.66]The baby grew big and strong and noise.
[04:55.50]Soon the poor mother could hide him no longer.
[04:59.86]So she wove a basket out of rushed.
[05:04.30]She covered the rushes with thick clay mixed with oils to stop any water getting inside.
[05:12.16]Then she made a tightly fitting lie.
[05:16.32]Gently,she put her baby inside the basket and went down to the river.
[05:22.95]She watched the basket float away on the water and went home sadly.
[05:29.38]praying that the river would carry her baby to safety.
[05:34.71]Her daughter,Miriam,had followed her down to the river.
[05:40.77]Miriam decided to watch and see what would happen to her little brother.
[05:47.01]Just then,the pharaoh's daughter came with her slaves to bathe at the water's edge.
[05:54.77]The princess moved some rushes to one side and saw the basket.
[06:01.01]She asked her slaves to bring it to her.
[06:05.35]How surprised she was to find a baby inside.
[06:10.10]The baby started to cry and the princess said,
[06:14.65]"Oh dear, this baby is an Israelite.
[06:19.40]my father's soldiers will kill him if they find him.
[06:25.25]But if I adopt him, he will be safe."
[06:29.90]At that moment Miriam came out from her hiding place.
[06:34.97]She said, "I know a kind woman who could nurse this baby for you.
[06:41.82]"Please bring her to me at once," said the princess.
[06:46.78]Miriam ran home and brought the woman.
[06:51.22]who was, of course, her own mother.
[06:56.08]"I will pay you well if you look after this baby for me.
[07:01.43]the pharaoh's daughter said to her.
[07:05.38]Miriam's mother was very happy to carry her son home again.
[07:11.44]She looked after him well and, when he was older
[07:17.19]the princess took him to live in her palace.
[07:21.94]She called him Moses, which means "pull out of water".
[07:28.78]11. What did the haraoh do to the Israelite baby boys?
[07:35.44]12. What did Miriam see happen to her little brother?
[07:42.00]13. Why did the princess name the baby boy Moses?
[07:48.45]Passage Two
[07:51.48]The difference between life in one country and another is quite often now.
[07:57.52]so great as the difference between city life and village life in the same country.
[08:04.36]In an English village,everybody knows everybody else;
[08:10.29]they know what time you get up.
[08:14.26]what time you go to bed and what you usually have for dinner.
[08:20.11]If you want any help,
[08:23.56]you will always get it and be glad to help anyone else in return.
[08:30.12]In a large city like London,
[08:33.85]there are many things to see and many places to go to.
[08:39.11]However,people often do not know each other well.
[08:44.67]It sometimes happens that you have never seen your next door neighbour.
[08:50.52]don't know his name or anything about him.
[08:54.96]People living in London are often very lonely,particularly after work.
[09:01.31]This is because the people they are with all day.
[09:06.25]are scattered over large areas in the evenings and weekend.
[09:11.71]If you walk through the streets in the centre of London on a Sunday.
[09:17.24]it is almost like an empty town.
[09:21.58]One is sorry for old people who do not live with their children.
[09:27.22]and have no work to go to during the day.
[09:32.16]14. What is this article about?
[09:38.30]15. Which of the following is true?
[09:43.03]16. Which of the following is not mentioned?
[09:49.17]Passage Three
[09:52.01]In early days,no medical college took a woman student.
[09:57.76] Elizabeth Black well, however was determined to become a doctor.
[10:04.11]The young American wrote again and again to a number of medical college
[10:10.35]asking if she could be enrollee but each time the answer was NO.
[10:17.40]Then one day,to her surprise
[10:21.74]she got a letter from the dean of a college in Geneva which said YES.
[10:30.07]At first Geneva College, like the other college
[10:35.64]was not willing to enrol Liza.
[10:39.79]But later the important people of that college.
[10:44.83]Learn that Liza's application had the support of a famous doctor.
[10:51.78]and they were afraid to offend that man.
[10:56.25]So the dean decided to play a trice
[11:00.40]by turning the matter over to the students' general meeting of the college
[11:06.54]thinking that the students would be the last to agree to take Liza.
[11:12.71]When the student body met
[11:16.15]most students took no interest in the matter.
[11:20.59]Of the rest some considered the young American's idea interesting
[11:26.26]and some thought by having Liza
[11:30.49]they could be proud of their college training the world's first woman doctor.
[11:37.26]Very soon the students all agreed to accept Elizabeth.
[11:42.62]The dean of Geneva College was of course very sorry to learn this
[11:48.47]but seeing that he could do nothing to keep Elizabeth out, he gave in.
[11:54.92]17. What was her aim to enter a medical college?
[12:00.56]18. What did the dean of the medical college think?
[12:06.62]19. Whom did Geneva College have to satisfy finally?
