• 2．I first met Paul Newman in 1968，when George Roy Hill，the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid，introduced us in New York City．When the studio didn't want me for the film-it wanted somebody as well known as Paul-he stood up for me．I don't know how many people would have done that；they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers．
  The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference，we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV．We were respectful of craft（技藝）and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play．Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors：humorous，aggressive，and making fun of each other-but always with an underlying affection．Those were also at the core（核心）of our relationship off the screen．
  We shared the brief that if you're fortunate enough to have success，you should put something back-he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill，and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival．Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly，but sharing that brought us together．We supported each other financially and by showing up at events．
  I last saw him a few months ago．He'd been in and out of the hospital．He and I both knew what the deal was，and we didn't talk about it．Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words．
  
  （1）Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to author at first？

  
  A．Paul Newman wanted it．
  B．The studio powers disliked his agent．
  C．He wasn't famous enough．
  D．The director recommended someone else．
  （2）Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship？

  
  A．They were of the same age．
  B．They worked in the same theater．
  C．They were both good actors．
  D．They have similar characteristics．
  （3）What does the underlined word"that"in paragraph 3 refer to？

  
  A．Their belief．
  B．Their care for children．
  C．Their success．
  D．Their support for each other．
  （4）What is the author's purpose in writing the text？

  
  A．To show his love of films．
  B．To remember a friend．
  C．To introduce a new movie．
  D．To share his acting experience．

• 3．Your house may have an effect on your figure.Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.You can make your environment work for you instead of against you.Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.
     Open the curtains and turn up the lights.Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating，for people are often less self-conscious（難為情）when they're in poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food.If your home doesn't have enough window light，get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.
     Mind the colors.Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites.In one study，people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room.Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing，while cold colors make us feel less hungry.So when it's time to repaint，go blue.
     Don't forget the clock—or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories（卡路里） per meal than those who rush through their meals.Begin keeping track of the time，and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes.And while you're at it，actually sit down to eat.If you need some help slowing down，turn on relaxing music.It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.
     Downsize the dishes.Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat.We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate.When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one，total intake（攝入）jumps by 14 percent.And we'll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short，wide glass than a tall，skinny glass.
  
  （1）The text is especially helpful for those who care about

  .
  A．their home comforts
  B．their body shape
  C．house buying
  D．healthy diets
  （2）A home environment in blue can help people

  .
  A．Digest food better
  B．Reduce body intake
  C．Burn more calories
  D．Regain their appetites
  （3）What are people advised to do at mealtimes？

  
  A．Eat quickly.
  B．Play fast music.
  C．Use smaller spoons.
  D．Turn down the lights.
  （4）What can be a suitable title for the text？

  
  A．Is Your House Making You Fat？
  B．Ways of Serving Dinner
  C．Effects of Self-consciousness
  D．Is Your Home Environment Relaxing？

• 4．In its early history，Chicago had floods frequently，especially in the spring，making the streets so muddy that people，horses，and carts got stuck．An old joke that was popular at the time went something like this：A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street．Asked if he needs help，he replies，"No，thanks．I've got a good horse under me．"
  The city planner decided to build an underground drainage （排水） system，but there simply wasn't enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level．The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city．
  An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt．This raised the level of the city's streets by as much as 12 feet．
  This of course created a new problem：dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago．Building owners were faced with a choice：either change the first floors of their buildings into basements，and the second stories into main floors，or hoist the entire buildings to meet the new street level．Small wood-frame buildings could be lifted fairly easily．But what about large，heavy structures like Tremont Hotel，which was a six-story brick building？
  That's where George Pullman came in．He had developed some house-moving skills successfully．To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel，Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews （螺旋千斤頂） beneath the building's foundation．One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews．At Pullman's signal each man turned his jackscrew the same amount at the same time，thereby raising the building slowly and evenly．Astonishingly，the Tremont Hotel stay open during the entire operation，and many of its guests didn't even notice anything was happening．
  Some people like to say that every problem has a solution．But in Chicago's early history，every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem．Now that Chicago's waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River，the city's next step was to clean the polluted river．
  
  （1）The author mentions the joke to show

  ．
  A．horses were fairly useful in Chicago
  B．Chicago's streets were extremely muddy
  C．Chicago was very dangerous in the spring
  D．the Chicago people were particularly humorous
  （2）The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to

  ．
  A．build the pipes above ground
  B．lower the Chicago River
  C．fight against heavy floods
  D．get rid of the street dirt
  （3）The underlined word"hoist"in Paragraph 4 means"

  "．
  A．change
  B．lift
  C．repair
  D．decorate
  （4）The passage is mainly about the early Chicago's

  ．
  A．popular life styles and their influences
  B．environmental disasters and their causes
  C．engineering problems and their solutions
  D．successful businessmen and their achievements．
