For her first twenty-four year, she’d been known as Debbie---a name that didn’t suit her good looks and elegant manner.” My name has always made me think I should be a cheerleader, ”She complained.”I just don’t feel like a Debbie!”
One day ,while filling out an application form for publishing job, the young woman suddenly changed middle name, Lynne, for her first name Debbie.“That was the smartest thing I ever did,” She says now.“ As soon as I stopped calling myself Debbie.I felt more comfortable with myself… and other people started to take me more seriously”.Two years after her successful magazine editor--- friends and associates call her Lynne.
Naturally, the name change didn’t cause Debbie/Lynne’s professional achievement--- but it surely helped if only by adding a bit of self-confidence to her talents.Social scientists say that what you are called can affect your life.Through history, names have not only identified people but also described them.”… As his name is, so is he …? says the Bible.For better or worse, qualities such as friendliness or reserves, simpleness or charm may be suggested by your name and encourage other people before they even meet you.
Of course , names with a good sense can work for you ---even encouraging new acquaintances.A recent survey showed that American men thought Susan to be the attractive female name, while women believed Richard and David were the most attractive to men.One woman I know turned down a blind date with a man named Harry because “he sounded dull.” Several evenings later she came up to me at a party, pressing for an introduction to a very nice man with whom they looked at each other all evening.“Oh, “ I said.” You mean Harry?” She was ill at ease.

The human body is a living machine, and, like all machines, it needs "fuel" (燃料) to supply it with energy.This is provided by the food we eat.But how much do we need to stay healthy?
The energy value of food is usually measured in calories.A calorie is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1℃.The number of calories people need per day is different.Also, the number of calories you use at any one moment normally depends on the activity you are in.For example, you need more calories for standing than for sitting, more for running than for walking, and so on.
The energy in food is in the form of three kinds of chemical materials-carbohydrate(碳水化合物), protein(蛋白质)and fat.Carbohydrate provides 3.8 Cal/gm, protein 4.0 Cal/gm, and fat 8.8 Cal/gm.Each food contains different amount of these materials, as the round pictures show.
1.The amount of calories supplied by equal amounts of milk, rice, and peanuts is the largest in the case of ________.
A.milk B.rice C.peanuts D.rice or peanuts
2.Choose one statement from among A-D that agrees with the passage and the pictures above.
A.You need more calories for swimming than for mountain climbing.
B.Food contains energy in the form of carbohydrates, proteins and fuel.
C.Different people need different amounts of energy depending on their age, sex and the activities they are in.
D.3 grams of milk provides 16.6 calories because carbohydrate provides 3.8 Cal/gm, protein 4.0 Cal/gm and fat 8.8 Cal/gm.
3.This article mainly tells us ________.
A.all the energy is in food B.the human body needs energy
C.the number of calories depends on your activity

Section B
Directions: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
Matsushita, the world’s largest provider of consumer electronics, has decided to move in on Hollywood. Last weekend, Matsushita company leaders met with movies VIPs from MCA, Inc., the entertainment community that produced the movies as “Jaws” and “E.T. the Extra-terrestrial”. If the negotiations are successful, Matsushita will pay somewhere between $6 billion and $7.5 billion for MCA, by far the largest U.S. buying by a Japanese company.
The deal is larger than last year’s $5 billion buying of Columbia Pictures by Matsushita’s competitor, Sony Corporation. The movement by the Japanese companies shows Tokyo’s growing interest in the entertainment world. It is surprising for both sides of the Pacific Ocean. Why does a disciplined, no-nonsense nation like Japan want to get into show business? The answer is quite simple: To make money. Japanese corporation leaders feel the global potential of the entertainment business and recognize that there is an increasing market for movies and television in the rapidly industrializing world.
1. The movement of buying American entertainment companies by the Japanese shows that____ _.
A. American movies are better than Japanese
B. Japan has growing interest in the entertainment world
