Passage one
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
Sleep is generally divided into five stages. In the first two stages, a person sinks into a light sleep ; muscles relax, breathing and pulse rate slow down. In the third and fourth stages of deep sleep, a sleeper can only be awakened by a loud and unusual noise; the heart beats slowly and blood pressure drops. It is in the fifth stage that the body regenerates( 恢复体力等) and a person dreams. Dreams are an important part of healthy sleep. They help the brain adapt and respond to life experience. The brain is almost as active at this time as when a person is awake.
The secrets of a good night’s sleep are a good mattress(床垫) and reasonable eating habits. A heavy meal and too much wine will destroy a good night’s sleep. When buying a mattress, you should test it to make sure that when lying on it you are comfortable and your body sinks into a side position easily. The mattress should be of the right size----20 to 30 centimeters longer than the sleeper’s stretched-out body and at least 95 centimeters wide.
A comfortable bed and a slightly darkened bedroom are important to a good sleep, too. It is true that a good night’s sleep must be long, deep and with do disturbance, so that both the brain and the body will regenerate during sleep.

In 1921 he won the Noble Prize for Physics and was greatly honored and respected in Germany. However, his life was again disrupted.

Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
The day after my high school graduation, I boarded a plane heading for South Korea. My parents had registered me in a cultural summer program at a university in Seoul. For five weeks I was to live in a dormitory with hundreds of fellow second-generation Korean American teenagers.
The first week of the program flew by, greatly damaging my self-confidence. My language skills were poor; the natives could not understand me when I spoke Korean. What’s more, I was having a difficult time adapting to the climate. The weather was hot and there was no air-conditioning.
I didn’t know where to begin when I called my mother to tell her about my first days, but there was something I wanted to ask since stepping off the plane.
“Mom, what does ‘gyo-po’ mean? I asked Grandma, but she didn’t seem to understand my question in Korean. ‘Gyo-po’ is what the natives—taxi drivers, waiters and saleswomen—are calling me every where I go.”
“It means foreigner, my girl,” answered my mon.
As I didn’t want to stand in the phone booth (电话亭) for too long, I got into the habit of writing down everything to tell my parents before calling them. It was boiling both inside and outside and the air felt hotter than my own breath. In a letter to my friend, I told her that in Seoul you didn’t move from one place to the next, you swam, as if you were in Africa.
“Oh, it means foreigner?” I replied in surprise. I didn’t have much else to say to my mom that day. Nothing on my list seemed important anymore.

VII.E-C Translation (15 points)
Children are encouraged to “leave the nest” at certain age and begin their own life. After children leave home they will establish social relationships and look for financial support outside the family. Usually parents do not arrange marriages for their children. Yet, even if children choose their own husband or wife, they still hope their parents will approve of their choices.
In many families, children are encouraged to make major life decisions themselves. Living away from parents does not mean that parents and children do not love each other. Strong love between parents and children is universal and this is no exception in American families.
