Just the mention of the TOEFL, GRE and GAMT exams brings a thought of long hours of dull paper work. But that idea is becoming increasingly out of date. As planned, computerized tests will begin next year which will bring a series of changes from test psychology to scoring techniques.

From computer - equipped rooms, examinees will answer the questions on a computer. If they are sure about their choices, they can pass to the next question by pressing the entry (条目) “next”. Then another question will be randomly (任意地) selected from a vast test item bank and appear on the screen. After answering all the questions, examinees can choose the entry “quit” if they are not satisfied with their performance, or “score” if they want to see the result. Scores will be calculated immediately and appear on the screen. By that point, student's marks are official--there is no going back.

Since they greatly shorten the painful waiting process-which used to be two or three months, computerized tests have won worldwide popularity. Besides, there will be no rushing to the registration offices (登记处) for these exams. Computerized tests will be given every workday in an exam center with all three kinds of tests being held in the same room. All test takers need to do is to call the exam center and book their seats for a particular day.

In addition it will become technically possible to apply new testing procedures. In the past, each examinee had the same set of test items despite differences in their ability. Under a computerized system, however, if the computer judges an answer is right, a question of a relatively difficult nature will follow. But if an examinee continues to give wrong answers and is judged as un-qualified by the computer system, he will be automatically denied the chance to go further in the test.

Computerized tests allow the examinee to know their scores ______.

  A. immediately on a central computer for scoring test papers

  B. a few minutes after the exam with the help of a test center worker

  C. on the next day after they have taken the exam

  D. immediately after the exam by means of the same computer

If an examinee is not satisfied with his performance ______.

  A. he can admit defeat and give it up         B. he can ask the computer to give some advice

  C. he can ask another chance within a few days D. he is allowed to do it once again

Under a computerized system, all of the following would be possible except that ______.

  A. different exams can be taken in the same room

  B. one doesn’t need to rush to the registration officer for taking an exam

  C. it will be much easier to pass an examination

  D. one can take an exam almost at any time of the year

The word denied in the last sentence most probably means ______.

  A. refused           B. allowed         C. lost          D. passed

Jealousy is a very common problem in daily life. It’s everywhere. For example, if someone does better than you, you will get annoyed because you want to be No. 1. We may become jealous of a best friend’s top marks in an exam, or of the girl in art class who is praised by the teacher all the time. We get annoyed because these good things are happening to someone else but not to us.

It’s bad to feel jealous. We should be pleased with the things we have. But we still wish we had the money of this person and the talent of that person. Instead of sharing their happiness, we just feel jealous and unhappy with ourselves. And, too often, these feelings are expressed by speaking ill of the people we envy.

However, envy is also a kind of compliment to others. We see that other people have styles and talents different from our own. By comparing ourselves with others, we can know what we lack. And we can turn this comparison, the envy of others, into a kind of power.

Therefore, being a bit jealous of others lets us know what we are like and what we want to be like. It can push us to become what we really want to be.

根据短文内容,从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出能回答所提问题或完成所给句子的最佳答案。

1.According to the first paragraph, why do you get annoyed?

A.Because the teacher dislikes others.

B.Because others do something better than you.

C.Because you are an annoying person.

D.Because you want to be No.1 in the exam and you do.

2.The Chinese meaning of the underlined part “speaking ill of” probably is “_____".

A.赞美             B.说…的坏话        C.憎恨             D.说…病了

3.What should be the right attitude towards jealousy?

A.It’s a good thing.

B.It’s just a bad thing.

C.It’s a kind of compliment to others.

D.It makes us know what we are like and what we want to be like.
