二、Reading comprehension
(2×10=20) Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.
11.(1)Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity such as walking, cycling, a game of some kind of football or mountaineering.Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women wiling to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risk on high mountains? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for such games as golf and football There are, of course, rules of a different thing that it would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports, we might think that one big diffidence is that mountaineering is not a "team game". We should be mistaken in this. There are, it is true, no "matches" between "teams" of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is obviously teamwork.The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than men. He has to fight the fores of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. But it is not unusual for a man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time than younger men, but they probably climb with more skill and less waste of efforts, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.The word “passion" in Line 1 Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A.strong emotion
B.good way
C.better feeling
D.enough affection
12. The difference between a sport and a game has to do with the kind of ____ .
A.activity
B.rules
C.uniform
D.climbers
13.Mountaineering can be called a team sport because ____ .

B.teams compete against each other
C.mountaineers depend on each other while climbing
D.there are five climbers on each team
14.Mountaineers compete against ____ .
A.nature
B.each other
C.other teams
D.International standards
15.What is the best title for the passage?
A.Mountaineering Is Different from Golf and Football.
B.Mountaineering Is More attractive than Other Sports.
C.Mountaineering Quality,
D.Mountaineering
16.(2)Growing cooperation among branches of tourism has proved valuable to all concerned. Government bureaus, trade and travel associations carriers and properties are all working together to bring about optimum conditions for travelers.Travel operators, specialists in the field of planning, sponsor extensive research programs. They have knowledge of all areas and all carrier services, and they are experts in organizing different types of tours and in preparing effective advertising campaigns. They distribute materials to agencies, such as journals, brochures and advertising projects. They offer familiarization and workshop tours so that in a short time agents can obtain first-hand knowledge of the tours.Tourist counselors give valuable seminars to acquaint agents with new programs and techniques in selling In this way agents learn to explain destinations and to suggest different modes and combinations of travel- panes, ships, trains, motor-coaches car-rentals and even car purchases. Properties and agencies work closely together to make the most suitable contracts, considering both the comfort of the clients and. their own profitable financial arrangement. Agencies rely upon the good services of hotels, and, conversely, hotels rely upon agencies to fulfill their contracts and to send them clients.The same confidence exists between agencies and carriers, including ca-rental and sight-seeing services. Carries are dependent upon agencies to supply passengers, and agencies are dependent upon caries to preset them with marketable tours.

六、Passage translation
(10×2=20)Directions: Translate the following passages into Chinese.
51.The travel agent's role is dissimilar to that of most other retailers, in that agents do not purchase a product for resale to their customers. Only when a customer has decided on a travel purchase do agents approach their principal on their customer's behalf to make a purchase. The travel agent does not, therefore, carry "stock' of travel products. This has two important implications for the businesses of travel distribution. First, the cost of setting up in business is comparatively small compared to that of other retail business, and second, agents are not seeking to dispose of products they have already purchased, so will therefore display less brand loyalty towards a particular product or company. However, in the past few years negotiations between principals and agents have led to higher commissions being paid to agents who achieve target sales, and this is causing agents to become more commercial in their approach to sales.
52.Visitors can find almost any kind of restaurant in most of the large cities in America. The telephone book lists restaurants for each city according to name, area of the city, or kind of food. Restaurants in large cities vary greatly in price. Many restaurants post their menus in the window so you can have some idea of the price and kind of food before you enter. If the menu is not posted, and you are uncertain about how expensive the place is, ask to see a menu before you are seated at a table, or else just ask about the price range. Appearances from the outside can be misleading- -what looks like a small, informal restaurant may rally be very expensive, and what looks like a large, expensive restaurant may be very reasonable.
