根据构词法，英语单词可以为简单词、复合词、派生词。其中，派生词是由词根加派生词缀（前缀和后缀）构成。词根是派生词的基础，同一词根加不同的词缀可以表示不同的意义和不同的词性。大多数前缀不影响词根的词性，而仅对词根的意义加以修饰，表示否定、相反、相背、贬低、程度、时间、方位等意义。大多数后缀不改变词根的基本意义，而是改变词性。
后缀-en可以加在一些形容词之后使原来的词性动词化，例如：
bright(明亮的)→brighten(点亮，变亮，使---光彩起来)

Part 2 Reading Comprehension
Direction: There are passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question, there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the ONE that you think is the best answer.
Passage 1
Not so long ago almost any student who successfully completes a university degree or diploma course could find a good career quite easily. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs.
Jon seekers first have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes, or the relative importance to themselves of such matters as money, security, leadership and caring for others.
The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.
Job application forms and asked to attend for interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can about the prospective employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also obviously important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understand a question and giving an unsuitable answer.
There will always be good career opportunities for people with ability, skills and determination; the secret to securing a good job is to he one of them.
11.In Part. 1, the sentence“----those days are gone, even in Hong Kong---”suggest that

C. it is better for interviewees to be honest than to pretend to understand
D. it is not a good idea for interviewees to be completely honest in their answers
Passage2
It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for
most of the misunderstanding between them. They have always complained, more or less
justly, that they are possessive and dominant; that they do not trust their children to deal with
crisis; that they talk too much about certain problems — and that they have no sense of
humor, at least in parent-child relationship .
I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget
how they themselves felt when young .
Young people often irritate parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in
entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world
into which they have not yet accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own.
Then, it turns out that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or hairstyles irritate their
parents; this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a
small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste .
Sometimes you are resistant, and proud because you do not want your parents to
approve of what you do. If they did approve ,it looks as if you are betraying your own age group .But in that case ,you are assuming that you are the underdog :you can’t win but at least you keep your honor.This is a passive way of looking at things.It is natural enough after long years of childhood ,when you were completely under your parents’ control .But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself .
If you plan to control your life ,cooperation can be part of that plan .You can impress others ,especially your parents ,into doing things the way you want .You can impress others ,especially your parents ,into doing things the way you want .You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative ,so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do .
16. This passage is primarily meant for ________.
A. parents B. teenagers C. educators. D. psychologists
17. The fist paragraph is mainly about __________.
A. the teenagers’ criticism of their parents
B. the misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents
C. the parent’ complaints about their children
D. the dominance of the parents over their children
18. Teenagers tend to have strange clothes and hairstyles because they___________.
A. want to irritate their parents
B. have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste
C. have no other way to enjoy themselves better
D. want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own
19. Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do because they____________.
A. have a desire to be dependent
B. feel that they are superior in a small way to the adults
C. are not likely to win over the adults
D. have already been accepted into the adult word
20. To omprove parent-child relationships ,teenagers are advised to be _________.
A. obedient B. independent C. responsible D. cooperative
Passage 3
The fridge is considered a necessity. It has been so since the 1960s when packaged food first appeared with label: “store in the refrigerator”.
In my fridgeless Fifties childhood , I was fed well and healthily . The milkman came daily ,the grocer , the butcher , the baker ,and the ice-cream man delivered two or three times a week .The Sunday meat would last until Wednesday and surplus bread and milk became all kinds of cakes . Nothing was wasted ,and we were never troubled by rotten food .Thirty years on , food deliveries have ceased ;resh vegetables are almost unobtainable in the country.
The invention of the fridge contributed comparatively little to the art of food preservation . A vast way of well-tired techniques already existed –natural cooling , drying ,smoking ,salting , sugaring ,botting…
What refrigeration did promote was marketing --- marketing hardware and electricity , marketing soft drinks ,marketing dead bodies of animals around the globe in search of a good price .
Consequently , most of the world;s fridge are to be found , not in the tropics where they might prove useful , but in the wealthy countries with mild temperatures where they are climatically almost unnecessary . Every winter ,millions of fridges hum away ( 不断地嗡嗡作响)continuously ,and at vast expense ,busily maintain an artificially—cooled space inside and artificially – heated house – while outside , nature provides the desired temperature free of charge .
The fridge’s effect upon the environment has been evident ,while is contribution to human happiness has been insignificant . If you don’t believe me , try yourself , invest in a food cabinet（橱柜）and turn off your fridge next winter . You may miss the hamburgers , but at least you ‘ll get rid of that terrible hum.
21. The statement “In my fidgeless Fifties childhood ,I was fed well and healthy .”(Para .2)suggest that ________.
A. the author was well –fed and healthy even without a fridge in his fifties
B. the author was not accustomed to using fridges even in his fifties
C. there was no fridge in the author’s home in the 1950s
D. the fridge was in its early stage of development in the 1950s
22. Why does the author say that nothing was wasted befor the invention of the fridges?
A. People would not buy more food than was necessary
B. Food was delivered to people two or three times a week
C. Food was sold fresh and did not get rotten easily
D. People had effective ways to preserve their food
23. Who benefited the least from fridges according to the author ?
A. Inventors B.Consumers C. Manufacturers D. Traveling salesmen (巡回推销员)
24. Which of the following phrases in Para.5 indicates the fridge’s negative effect on the environment ?
A. “Hum away continuously”
B. “ Climatically almost unnecessary ”
C. “Artificially-cooled space ”
D. “ With mild temperatures ”
25. What is the author’s overall attitude toward fridges?
A . Neutral B. Critical C. Objective D. Compromising

Passage 1
Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street cornor and tell you what they
see. Chances are that you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene,

Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may say that sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what the senses — in this case our eyes — tell us.
Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors.
