25、She didnt have much in common with other girls in her school, however. She played football better than most boys, and unfortunately she made a rather had impression on many of her teachers. Amy just didnt act the way they thought a girl should. She studied at a university and later took a job as a t
26、ypist. Although she was enthusiastic and did her best, she made many mistakes and was poorly paid. She didnt want to be a typist anyway -she dreamed of becoming a pilot!Amy moved to London, borrowed some money, and learned to fly. Nobody, however, wanted to hire a female pilot. She decided to fly al
27、one to Australia to prove that she could fly as well as any man. Her parents lent her money to buy an airplane.Amy set off on May 5, 1930. Her route took her over Vienna, Constantinople, and Baghdad. She was caught in a sandstorm and had to make an emergency landing in the desert. But she landed in
28、India six days later. She had broken the record to India by two days. Over Burma she ran into a monsoon (季风), and was able to save herself only by landing on a football field.

32、lotPassage Three: Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Time to RelaxLeisure plays an important part in British life. There are four main reasons for this.First of all, people spend less time working now than they used to, mostly due to the introduction of new technology in industry.
33、 The normal British working week is Monday to Friday, 9.00 am to 5.00 pm, although some people regularly work a few hours overtime each week. Secondly, all working people get a minimum of two weeks paid holiday a year. In addition, there are six or more bank holidays a year when all banks and busine
34、sses are closed. In some cases the dates of these national holidays change from year to year and in different parts of Britain.Another reason is that, thanks to modern medicine and higher living standards, people live longer now. This means that after retirement, people have quite a few years of lei
35、sure left. Nowadays a much higher proportion of the population is over sixty, but in this group there are more women than men.Finally, fewer babies are born each year and the average family in Britain has two children.

42、 tighter job market, great importance has been attached to an interview by both the employer and the applicant. The interview, so to speak, has become indispensable for getting a satisfactory job. On the one hand, the interviewer can take advantage of the occasion to learn about the candidates, such
43、 as their work experiences, education and their personalities, so as to pick out the right person for the company. On the other hand, the interviewee can make use of the opportunity to get to know the job he is going to take up, the salary, the working conditions and many other things about the job
44、he is interested in. Therefore, the job interview is very important to a job-hunter. But how can one succeed in it? Firstly of all, the interviewee must pay attention to his or her appearance. The first impression is always where we start. Get dressed properly and neatly. Secondly, good manners are
45、equally important. Dont be too proud, and neither too timid. Just be courteous. Thirdly, the interviewee must demonstrate his aptitude and skills for the job and his knowledge about eh job-related areas. Be confident. Last but not the least, the interviewee ought to be honest about his or her person
46、al as well as academic background, for honesty is the best policy. To sum up, the job interview is indeed important, but there is no need to be nervous. As long as the interviewee has the ability for the job, with careful preparation and a fairly confident and honest performance, his or her success
47、can be ensured. TEST OF SPECTRUM III BNAME _ STUDENT NUMBER _Part I: (30*1%=30%)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.
