Passage One

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

In March 2004，Joe Ryan got a notice from a billing agency for a hospital near Denveg Colorado.The hospital wanted payment for surgery totaling $41，1 88.Ryan had never set foot in that hospital.Obviously there was some mistake.“I thought it was a joke，”says Ryan.

But when he called the billing agency, nobody laughed.Someone，who’s also named Joe Ryan，using Ryan’s Social Security number, had indeed been admixed for surgery.He figured clearing this up would take a just few phone calls.

Two years later, Ryan continues to suffer from the damage to his credit rating and still doesn’t know if his medical record has been cleared of wrong information.

Joe Ryan was the victim of a little—known but frightening type of consumer cheating that is on the rise：medical identity theft，which involves using your name to get drugs，expensive medical treatment and even cheating insurance payments.

As Ryan discovered，money isn’t the half of it.When someone steals your name to receive health care，his medical history becomes part of your record--and setting the record straight Can be extremely difficult.That’s because，in part，the information is handed out among dozens of caregivers，from doctors to medicine stores to insurance companies and labs.

“I wanted to help straighten this out，”says Ryan，“So I went to the hospital，and they had a three-inch—thick record for me.but they wouldn’t let me see it.I showed them my ID，and they said that’s not Joe Ryan’s signature.Well，of course not! They had this other guy’s signature.”

Ryan had fallen into a victim’s Catch-22：If your record doesn’t appear to be yours，you may not have the right to read it，much less change it.

Ryan’s next step was a visit to the police department.But the police said that there was not much they could d0，that the local.1aw enforcement has little experience with medical ID theft，and cases like this can end up being considered  a civil matter.

21.The billing agency sent Joe Ryan’s a notice to ____

A. play a joke on him for medical treatment

B. inform him of the payment for his surgery

C. clear up the wrong information in his medical record

D. correct the mistakes about payment for his surgery

22.Joe Ryan initially thought his problem was ____

A.easy to settle

B.difficult to settle

C.impossible to solve

D.unnecessary to solve

23.The number of the medical identity theft cases is ____

A.increasing

B.decreasing

C.countable

D.changeable

24.An even worse consequence of medical ID theft is ____

A. some trouble in obtaining insurance payments

B. a big loss of money and damage to credit rating

C. the widely spread medical information of the victim

D. the difficulty in changing the wrong medical history

25.It can be known mat the medical ID theft is ____

A.a civil matter

B.a medical case

C.a political issue

D.a domestic event

Passage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage

Rob Reiner, co-founder of Castle Rock Entertainment，was greatly surprised when he saw his studio’s film Proof of Life.“Wow, why is Meg Ryan smoking up a storm?” Reiner says.“It didn’t add to the plot.”Fourteen months later, Castle Rock has、a policy of discouraging tobacco use.Any actor, director or screenwriter who wants.to de, depict it must first meet with Reiner.‘‘They have to make a really good case，”he says. “Movies are basically advertising cigarettes to kids.”

Movie characters light up more often than people do in real life，argues Stanton Glantz, a professor of medicine who has launched a “Smoke-Free Movies” newspaper ad campaign.His study found that on average the 20 top-grossing film featured 50% more instances of smoking an hour in 2000 than in l 960.And an American Lung Association survey discovered that 61%of the tobacco use in films last year occurred in movies rated G, PG and PG-l3.With teen smoking up dramatically in the past decade，a movement is building to hold Hollywood accountable.So Glantz says，“The entertainment industry is in denial.”

But it’s getting an education.Susan Moses, deputy director of Harvard’s Center for Health Communication，and Lindsay Doran，former head of United Artists，have been going from one studio to another.They hit the bosses with hard  facts：a million teens a year become daily smokers.and a third of those will eventually die from tobacco—related illness.When Doran and Moses met with executives from Imagine Pictures，says Doran，“They said，‘Smoking is not in any of our scripts.’But then they called the next day and said，‘We looked，and it’s everywhere.’”Karen Kehela, co-chairman of Imagine，recalls trying to take smoking out of one script after the meeting，“but the actor insisted on smoking，”she says.In fact，many movie stars can’t leave their cigarettes in the dressing room.“Actors who smoke look for any reason to integrate it into their characters，”Reiner says. “‘You have directors who don’t care about the social implications or are yielding to the actors.”

26.Reiner Was astonished at the film Proof of life made In his studio because

A.one of the characters smoked a lot

B.smoking added something to the plot

C.smoking in the film resulted in a storm

D.tobacco use was prohibited from films

27.Glantz found that the number of smoking scenes in hit movies were

higher than 40 years ago.

A.20% B.50% C.61% D.80%

28.The word “it” in Line 4.Para1 refers to .

A.film B.plot C.smoking D.advertising

29.Executives from Imagine Pictures

A. failed to tell actors about the seriousness of tobacco use

B. should have informed actors of the bad effects of smoking

C. didn’t admit the existence of tobacco use scenes in their films

D. didn’t know there were smoking scenes in their movies at first

30.In Reiner’s opinion， should be held mainly responsible for smoking

scenes in movies.

A.bosses B.actors

C.directors D.screenwriters

Passage Three

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

I met him on the Internet and we chatted for several months.Every time I suggested we meet in person，he would come up with an excuse.I thought it was strange--but he told me that he had not gotten over the death of his wife and he was still grieving for her.

I thought that he needed a friend and decided that I could be that friend.We sent cards，exchanged gifts，talked on the phone and I was sure that we would meet someday.I had spoken with his children so I was sure that what he told me was true.I could not wait for the day when we would meet.I was so looking forward to being able to reach out and touch him.To hug him，to hold him and feel his big strong arms around me.

After almost two years of time，thousands of dollars on long distance phone calls，I was very frustrated at the endless stream of excuses as to why we could never seem to make a time to meet.Finally，I contacted the website-WhoisHecom and asked if they could check out the man who had taken up so much of my heart，my energy and my life.I had enough information about him and felt that if I could confirm what he had been telling me一I could feel okay about these delays.I had hopes that I didn’t want to dash if he was telling the truth.I believed I could wait a little while longer.

Well，I am glad that I decided to have him checked out-he was nothing he claimed to be.He was first and foremost a married man.He was not a man grieving for the loss of his wife. He was a man cheating on his wife，with me-一and I found out later.with countless others on the “net”.He did not care that he had hurt me in a very deep and pathetic way.He talked of spending his life together with me.He told my son that he wanted to make me happy.Basically，he just lied.He was such a good liar I did not see it coming.It was as if he had been able to worm his way into my heart--and hedidn’t care about the effect he had on my hopes and dreams.

Each of US should look at the signs that are so clear if we are willing to see them.Do not let someone keep making excuse after excuse.If something feels wrong-一likely it is.It is good to know the truth and be able to deal with it.Next time I will pay more attention—may never be able to trust someone online again.

31.It can be inferred from Para.4 that

A. the man was a single person in reality

B. the woman was the man’s only girlfriend

C. the man had too many girlfriends on the net

D. the woman had countless online boyfriends

32.The job of WhoisHe.com is to

A.help people find true love

B.write single men’s biographies

C.verify the truth of friends’ words

D.offer information about single men

33.It Can be concluded from the passage that

A.the man loved his wife passionately

B.the woman loved the man deeply

C.the man dearly loved the woman

D.the woman hated the man’s wife

34.The woman felt badly hurt because she

A.gave many gifts to the man

B.spent a lot of time with the marl

C.failed to find true love from the man

D。spent too much money on the phone
