Part IV Reading Comprehension (reading in depth) (25 minutes)
Section A
Directions: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select
one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank
following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making
your choices. Each choice in bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the
corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line
through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more
than once.
Questions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.
Years ago, doctors often said that pain was a normal part of life. In particular, when
older patients __47__ of pain, they were told it was a natural part of aging and they
would have to learn to live with it.
Times have changed. Today, we take pain __48__. Indeed, pain is now considered
the fifth vital sign, as important as blood pressure, temperature, breathing rate and pulse
in __49__ a person’s well-being. We know that chronic (慢性的) pain can disrupt (扰乱)
a person’s life, causing problems that __50__ from missed work to depression.
That’s why a growing number of hospitals now depend upon physicians who
__51__ in pain medicine. Not only do we evaluate the cause of the pain, which can help
us treat the pain better, but we also help provide comprehensive therapy for depression
and other psychological and social __52__ related to chronic pain. Such comprehensive
therapy often __53__ the work of social workers, psychiatrists (心理医生) and
psychologists, as well as specialists in pain medicine.
This modern __54__ for pain management has led to a wealth of innovative
treatments which are more effective and with fewer side effects than ever before.
Decades ago, there were only a __55__ number of drugs available, and many of them
caused __56__ side effects in older people, including dizziness and fatigue. This created
a double-edged sword: the medications helped relieve the pain but caused other problems

Section B
Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some

marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark
the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the
centre.
Passage One
Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.
I’ve been writing for most of my life. The book Writing Without Teachers introduced
me to one distinction and one practice that has helped my writing processes tremendously.
The distinction is between the creative mind and the critical mind. While you need to
employ both to get to a finished result, they cannot work in parallel no matter how much
we might like to think so.
Trying to criticize writing on the fly is possibly the single greatest barrier to writing
that most of us encounter. If you are listening to that 5th grade English teacher correct
your grammar while you are trying to capture a fleeting (稍纵即逝的) thought, the
thought will die. If you capture the fleeting thought and simply share it with the world in
raw form, no one is likely to understand. You must learn to create first and then criticize
if you want to make writing the tool for thinking that it is.
The practice that can help you past your learned bad habits of trying to edit as you
write is what Elbow calls “free writing.” In free writing, the objective is to get words
down on paper non-stop, usually for 15-20 minutes. No stopping, no going back, no
criticizing. The goal is to get the words flowing. As the words begin to flow, the ideas
will come from the shadows and let themselves be captured on your notepad or your
screen.
Now you have raw materials that you can begin to work with using the critical mind
that you’ve persuaded to sit on the side and watch quietly. Most likely, you will believe
that this will take more time than you actually have and you will end up staring blankly at
the pages as the deadline draws near.
Instead of staring at a blank start filling it with words no matter how bad. Halfway
through you available time, stop and rework your raw writing into something closer to
finished product. Move back and forth until you run out of time and the final result will
most likely be far better than your current practices.
