Can you imagine working on a writing project for seventeen years? J.K. Rowling first(31)__________up with the idea of Harry Potter in 1990 but it was not until 2007 that she finally completed the last book in the series. In 1990, of course, she had no idea how much Harry would take over her(32)______,or that she would end up as a multimillionaire. But since then, the books have been translated in to over 60 languages and also been made into films, each of which has been a hit with cinema (33)_____________.
It is not just J.K. Rowling's life that has been transformed. The same can be said of Daniel Radcliffe, the teenage actor who plays HarryPotter.(34)_____________he made his acting debut in 1999, it was in the role of Harry Potter that he found his route to stardom.

Glass is a remarkable substance made from the simplest raw materials. It can be colored or colorless, monochrome or polychrome, transparent, translucent, or opaque. It is lightweight impermeable to liquids, readily cleaned and reused, durable yet fragile, and often very beautiful Glass can be decorated in multiple ways and its optical properties are exceptional. In all its myriad forms - as table ware, containers, in architecture and design - glass represents a major achievement in the history of technological developments.
Since the Bronze Age about 3,000 B.C., glass has been used for making various kinds of objects. It was first made from a mixture of silica, line and an alkali such as soda or potash, and these remained the basic ingredients of glass until the development of lead glass in the seventeenth century. When heated, the mixture becomes soft and malleable and can be formed by various techniques into a vast array of shapes and sizes. The homogeneous mass thus formed by melting then cools to create glass, but in contrast to most materials formed in this way (metals, for instance), glass lacks the crystalline structure normally associated with solids, and instead retains the random molecular structure of a liquid. In effect, as molten glass cools, it progressively stiffens until rigid, but does so without setting up a network of interlocking crystals customarily associated with that process. This is why glass shatters so easily when dealt a blow. Why glass deteriorates over time, especially when exposed to moisture, and why glassware must be slowly reheated and uniformly cooled after manufacture to release internal stresses induced by uneven cooling.
Another unusual feature of glass is the manner in which its viscosity changes as it turns from a cold substance into a hot, ductile liquid. Unlike metals that flow or "freeze" at specific temperatures glass progressively softens as the temperature rises, going through varying stages of malleability until it flows like thick syrup. Each stage of malleability allows the glass to be manipulated into various forms, by different techniques, and if suddenly cooled the object retains the shape achieved at that point. Glass is thus amenable to a greater number of heat-forming techniques than most other materials.
Question 36: Why does the author list the characteristics of glass in lines 1-5? A. To demonstrate how glass evolved
B. To show the versatility of glass C. To explain glassmaking technology
D. To explain the purpose of each component of glass
A. lasting B. delicate C. heavy D. Plain
Question 38: According to the passage, how is glass that has cooled and become rigid different from most other rigid substances?
A. It has an interlocking crystal network. B. It has an unusually low melting temperature.
C. It has varying physical properties. D. It has a random molecular structure.
Question 39: The word "customarily" in line 16 is closest in meaning to_____.
A. naturally B. necessarily C. usually D. certainly
Question 40: What must be done to release the internal stresses that build up in glass products during manufacture?
A. The glass must be reheated and evenly cooled. B. The glass must be cooled quickly.
C. The glass must be kept moist until cooled.
D. The glass must be shaped to its desired form immediately
Question 41: The word "induced" in line 20 is closest in meaning to_____.
A. joined B. missed C. caused D. lost
Question 42: According to the passage, why can glass be more easily shaped into specific forms than can metals
A. It resists breaking when heated B. It has better optical properties.
C. It retains heat while its viscosity changes.
D. It gradually becomes softer as its temperature rises.
Telecommuting is some form of computer communication between employees’ homes and offices. For employees whose job involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data or typing reports, the location of the computer is of no
consequence. If the machine can communicate over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office computer and transmit the material to their employers. A recent survey in USA Today estimates that there are approximately 8,7 million telecommuters. But although the numbers are rising annually, the trend does not appear to be as significant as predicted when Business Week published “The Portable Executive” as its cover story a few years ago. Why hasn’t telecommuting become more popular?
Clearly, change simply takes time. But in addition, there has been active resistance on the part of many managers. These executives claim that supervising the
telecommuters in a large work force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managing them are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager’s responsibilities.
It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are reluctant to accept the opportunity. Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and many are concerned that they will not have the same consideration for advancement if they are not more visible in the office setting. Some people feel that even when a space in their homes is set aside as a work area, they never really get away from the office.
Question43: With which of the following topics is the passage primarily concerned?
A. The advantages of telecommuting. B. A definition of
telecommuting.
C. An overview of telecommuting. D. The failure of
telecommuting.
Question 44:How many Americans are involved in telecommuting?
A. More than predicted in Business Week. B. More than 8 million.
Question 45: The phrase “of no consequence” means ________ . A. of no use B. of no good C.
unimportant D. irrelevant
Question 46:The author mentions all of the following as concerns of telecommuting, EXCEPT ________ .
A. the opportunities for advancement. B. the different system of
supervision.
C. the lack of interaction with a group. D. The work place is in the home.
Question 47:The word “executives” in line 10 refers to ________ . A. telecommuters B. managers C.
employees D. most people
Question 48: The word “them” in line 10 refers to ________ . A. systems B. telecommuters C.
executives D. responsibilities
Question 49:The reason why telecommuting has not become popular is that the employees ________
A. need regular interaction with their families.
B. are worried about the promotion if they are not seen at the office. C. feel that a work area in their home is away from the office.
D. are ignorant of telecommuting.
Question 50: When Business Week published “The Portable Executive”, it implied that ________
A. systems for managing telecommuters were not effective.
B. there was resistance on the part of many managers about telecommuting. C. the trend for telecommuting was optimistic.
D. most telecommuters were satisfied with their work.
