There were two things in the world that Ghagra Geeta Bali hated. The first was the way，Rani，the domestic help．combed her hair．The second was，you guessed it，her name. She hated her name so much that she prayed to god every night：Dear god，let me be born again. So I can have a name like Rita or Preeti．A short，smart one-word name.
On Tuesday，Ghagra Geeta Bali and her mother went for their usual shopping. There was a long queue of children just outside the record store．They went loser to look. It was yet another scheme to sell a few audio cassettes．Everyone who bought a cassette qualified for the scheme.
In this case，the artist whose songs were featured on the cassette was a young sensation called Malik Fafidabadi，a great favorite with teenagers. Ghagra Geeta Bali was no exception.
A friendly young man was writing down the names of the people who wanted to participate in the scheme．Out of this long list Malik would pick one name，and the chosen one would get to meet him．plus of course，win many freebies（贈品）.
But when her mother asked her to participate，Ghagra Geeta Bali said no. She didn't want to speak out her name in front of so many people and make herself the butt（笑料）of amusement. But mothers being mothers，she just went up to the man and told him in firm tones：“Please enter my daughter's name. It is Ghagra Geeta Bali.”
“It is what?” the man asked，naturally a little taken aback.
“G-h-a-g-r-a G-e-e-t-a B-a-l-i. There she is，”she replied while pointing to her daughter. The crowd standing around also turned to stare. All Ghagra Geeta Bali wanted then was for the earth to open up and swallow her.
That did not happen．But the following week she received a call．It was from the recording company that had announced the scheme. And they told her that she was the chosen one
“It is all because of your name，” said the public relations  man  who had called.“Mr Faridabadi took one look at it in the list and said that he couldn't wait to meet the brave girl bearing it．”

第三部分閱讀理解(共20小題；每小題2分，滿分40分)
閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中，選出最佳選項，并在答題卡上將該項涂黑。
A
This week in our Foreign Student Series，we talk about getting an American education online．A student named Hendra has written to us from Indonesia asking about a good online university．Finding the right online program requires research．Talking to advisers and recruiters（招募者）can help．Keep in mind，though，that they might have a financial interest to direct you to certain programs．
The Council on Higher Education Accreditation（CHEA）recognizes a group in Washington，D．C．，to accredit（授權(quán)）schools that offer distance learning．One hundred and ten programs in the United States and six other countries are accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council．
We asked the executive director，Michael Lambert，for advice on choosing a distance learning program．He says the first thing is to go on the CHEA Web site to find if a school is accredited．The address is c-h-e-a dot o-r-g．Next，make sure the school offers what you need．Do you need a degree，or will a certificate or license be enough?
Another consideration is cost．Often the published price does not include all the costs --like books．Technology requirements can also add to the costs．Will you need to get new software or a high-speed Internet connection or even a new computer to take the classes you want?
Also，consider the level of interaction that an online program offers．You might never meet the teacher or other students in person．
Finally，and this is our own advice，find out what others say on the Internet for comments or news stories about schools that interest you．Just remember that what people say is not always fair or true．
56．This passage is probably from ________．
A．a(chǎn) magazine          B．a(chǎn) newspaper

     The need for love is deeply rooted in the human psyche(靈魂).   1    Separateness, according to
psychologists, means to be cut off, helpless and alone in the world. It is the source of all anxiety.
      2   It can be selfish and possessive, or unselfish and giving. Abraham Maslow distinguishes between
two kinds of love: B-love or "being love" means love for another person: unselfish love not dependent
upon your own needs. D-love or "deficiency-love" is a selfish possessive love which is based upon
someone else's ability to satisfy your needs.
     D-love is conditional. It depends upon whether personal needs continue to be met…But B-love is
unconditional.    3   Furthermore, as it depends upon who you are, it is possible only when you allow
yourself to be known to the other person.
     The psychologist Erich Fromm also distinguished between two types of love.  4    Symbiotic union is
an immature love based upon the satisfaction of needs and is similar to Maslow's concept of D-love.
     Mature love, on the other hand, is a relationship that allows individuals to retain(保持) their
independence, their identity, and their integrity. In mature love people can overcome their sense of
separateness yet continue to be themselves. The mature lover would say , "I love you because I need
you," but the mature one: " 5   "
A.There are two types of love.
B.I need you because I love you.
C.Love is a way of overcoming the feeling
D.Every one of us needs love.
E.It depends not upon what you do, but who you are.
F.They are immature love, called by him symbiotic union(共同體), and mature love.
G.These two types are quite different from each other.

                                                          The Value of Tears
     Tears can ruin make-up, bring conversation to a stop, and give you a runny nose. Tears leave you
embarrassed and without energy. Still, crying is a fact of life, and your tears are very useful. Even when
you're not crying, they make a film over the eye's surface.   1   
     When tears fall, they reduce stress. But we tend to fight them for all sorts of reasons. "People worry
about showing their emotions, afraid that once they lose control they'II never get it back. "     2    After
we cry , the feelings that caused the tears often disappear.
    Sometirnes people become much stressed and can't cry. Whatever emotion  they  are  feeling-shock ,
anger, fear , or sadness-is being held back.
      But everyone has the need to try. Psychologist Vera Diamond explains that her treatment often
consists of giving people permission to cry.   3   Patients practice crying just to become used to expressing emotions. She suggests safe , private  places  to  cry , like  under the  bedcovers or in the car.
     Crying is a way of reducing tension, but people don't like it when others cry because it makes them
tense.   4   And they'll do just about anything to make you stop.
     In certain situations, such as at work, tears are not appropriate. It's good not to cry during a tense
business discussion.   5   You should also act out the whole situation again and be as noisy and angry as
you Iike. It will help you feel better. "And,"  she adds, "once your tears have taken away the stress , you
can begin to think calmly of ways to deal with the problem. "
     Tears are a sign of our ability to feel. If you find yourself near someone crying, deal with it. And never
be afraid to cry yourself.
A. They too may be holding back a need to cry.
B. They cry for different reasons.
C. She gives crying exercises.
D. It contains a chemical against infection.
E. The fact is that no emotion lasts forever.
F. It forms in response to the stress on the surface of the eye.
G. But once you're safely behind closed doors,don't just cry.
