大学体验英语第三册作业题及参考答案
大学体验英语第三册作业题作业题一Part I. Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:At this time the state of South Carolina was having hard times. Year after year the soil had been planted to the same crop. It was farmed by uneducated and careless slaves, and the planters knew little about soil conservation. Because the soil was beginning to wear out, crops were smaller. The younger people were not satisfied to raise cotton on the poor soil of the old South. Many of them moved westward and started cotton plantations in Alabama and Mississippi. Moreover, so much cotton had been shipped to factories in England and New England that they had as much cotton as they could use. This brought the price of cotton down. More and more slaves were needed to work on the new and larger plantations, and higher and higher prices were demanded for them. Planters found their expenses rising and their incomes from the sale of cotton reduced. Hard times had come to South Carolina.1. The best title of this passage is ______.A) Ignorance of Planters About FarmingB) Economic Rivalry in the SouthC) Deterioration of the Soil in South CarolinaD) Economic Difficulties of South Carolina2. Which of the following sentences can best summarize the main idea ofthe passage?A) Hard times had come to South Carolina planters.B) Planters found their expenses rising and their incomes from thesale of cotton reduced.C) Year after year the soil of South Carolina had been planted withthe same crop.D) Because the soil was beginning to wear out, crops were smaller.3.

The fact that cotton prices were falling is mentioned by the author toshow that ______.A) cotton shipments should have been regulatedB) poorer soil produced poorer quality cropsC) the planters were having hard timesD) there were reasons why young people moved westwardQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:A unique laboratory at the University of Chicago is busy only at night. It is a dream laboratory where researchers are at work studying dreamers. Their findings have revealed that everyone dreams from three to seven times a night, although in ordinary life a person may remember none or only one of his dreams.While the subjects--usually students--are asleep, special machines record their brain waves and eye movements as well as the body movements that signal the end of a dream. Surprisingly, all subjects sleep soundly.Observers report that a person usually moves his body restlessly before a dream. Once the dream has started, his body relaxes and his eyes become more active, as if the curtain had gone up on a show. As soon as the machine indicates that the dream is over, a buzzer wakens the sleeper. He sits up, records his dream, and goes back to sleep--perhaps to dream some more.Researchers have found that if the dreamer is wakened immediately after his dream, he can usually recall the entire dream. If he is allowed to sleep even five more minutes, his memory of the dream will have faded.6. According to the passage, researchers at the University of Chicago arestudying ______.A) the content of dreams B) the meaning of dreamsC) the process of sleeping D) dreamers while they dream7.

A person is most likely to remember the dream that _______.A) is of most interest to himB) occurs immediately after he goes to sleepC) occurs just before he wakes upD) both A) and B)Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:The existence of oil wells has been well known for a long time. Some of the Indians of North America used to collect and sell the oil from the wells of Pennsylvania. No one, however, seems to have realized the importance of this oil until it was found that paraffin-oil could be made from it; this led to the development of the wells and to the making of enormous profits. When the internal combustion engine was invented, oil became of world-wide importance.What was the origin of the oil which now drives our motor-cars and aircraft? Scientists are confident about the formation of coal, but they do not seem so sure when asked about oil. They think that the oil under the surface of the earth originated in the distant past, and was formed from living things in the sea. Countless billions of minute sea creatures and plants lived and sank to the sea bed. They were covered with huge deposits of mud, and by processesof chemistry, pressure and temperature were changed through long ages into what we know as oil. For these creatures to become oil, it was necessary that they should be imprisoned between layers of rock for an enormous length of time. The statement that oil originated in the sea is confirmed by a glance at a map showing the chief oilfields of the world; very few of them are far distant from the oceans of today. In some places gas and oil come up to the surface of the sea from its bed. The rocks in which oil is found are of marine origin too. They are sedimentary rocks, rocks which were laid down by the action of water on the bed of the ocean. Almost always their remains of shells, and other proofs of sea life, are found close to the oil. A very common sedimentary rock is called shale, which is a soft rock and was obviously formed by being deposited on the sea bed. And where there is shale there is likely to be oil.There are four main areas of the world where deposits of oil appear. The first is that of the Middle East, and includes the regions near the Caspian Sea, the Black Sea, the Red Sea and the Persian Gulf. Another is the area between North and South America, and the third, between Asia and Australia, includes the Islands of Sumatra, Borneo and Java.The fourth area is the part near the North Pole. When all the present oil-fields are exhausted, it is possible that this cold region may become the scene of oil activity. Yet the difficulties will be great, and the costs may be so high that no company will undertake the work. If progress in using atomic power to drive machines is fast enough, it is possible that oil-driven engines may give place to the new kind of engine. In that case the demand for oil will fall, the oilfields will gradually disappear, and the deposits at the North Pole may rest where they are forever.11. Mineral oil didn't become very important until _______.A) the internal combustion engine was inventedB) the oil wells in Pennsylvania were developedC) American Indians began to collect and sell itD) oilfields were exhausted12. Scientists think that _______.A) coal was formed from shale under the surface of the earthB) oil was formed from sea creatures caught between layers of rockC) oil was formed from large deposits of mud on the sea bedD) oil was formed from sea water by processes of chemistry,pressure and temperature13. "Where there is shale, there is likely to be oil." The authorsays this in order to show that ______.A) oil was first formed under seaB) shale is a sedimentary rockC) oil was made from shaleD) shale is another form of oil14.

Progress in using atomic power may _______.A) save all the trouble of drilling for oilB) give rise to a new kind of oil-driven engineC) reduce the cost of drilling near the North PoleD) make it necessary to drill near the North PoleQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:A very important world problem is the rapidly increasing pressure of population on land and on land resources.It is not so much the actual population of the world but its rate of increase which is important. It works out to be about 1.6 per cent per annum net increase. In terms of numbers this means something like forty to fifty-five million additional people every year. Canada has a population of twenty million--rather less than six months' climb in world population. Take Australia. There are ten million people in Australia. So, it takes the world less than three months to add to itself a population which peoples that vast country. Let us take our own crowded country--England and Wales: forty-five to fifty million people--just about a year's supply. By this time tomorrow, and every day, there will be added to the earth about 120,000 extra people, just about the population of the city of York.This enormous increase of population will create immense problems. By A.D. 2000, unless something desperate happens, there will be as many as 7,000,000,000 people on the surface of this earth! So this is a problem which you are going to see in your lifetime.Why is this enormous increase in population taking place? It is really due to the spread of the knowledge and the practice of what is coming to be called Death Control. Death Control is something rather different from Birth Control. Death Control recognizes the work of the doctors and the nurses and the hospitals and the health services in keeping alive people who, a few years ago, would have died of some of the incredibly serious killing diseases, as they used to be. Squalid conditions, which we can remedy by an improved standard of living, caused a lot of disease and dirt. Medical examinations at school catch diseases early and ensure healthier school children. Scientists are at work stamping our malaria and other more deadly diseases. If you are seriously ill there is an ambulance to take you to a modern hospital. Medical care helps to keep people alive longer. We used to think seventy was a good age; now eighty, ninety, it may be, are coming to be recognized as a normal age for human beings. People are living longer because of this Death Control, and fewer children are dying, so the population of the world is shooting up.Imagine the position if you and I and everyone else living on earth shared the surface between us. How much should we have each? It would be just over twelve acres--the sort of size of a small holding. But not all that is useful land which is going to produce food. We can cut out one-fifth of it, for example, as being too cold. That is land which is covered with ice and snow--Antarctica and Greenland and the great frozen areas of northern Canada. Then we can cut out another fifth as being too dry--the great deserts of the world like the Sahara and the heart of Australia and other areas where there is no known water supply to feed crops and so to produce food. Then we can cut out another fifth as being too mountainous or with too great an elevation above sea level. Then we can cut out another tenth as land which has insufficient soil, probably just rock at the surface. Now, out of the twelve acres only about four are left as suitable for producing food.. But not all that is used. It includes land with enough soil and enough rainfall or water, and enough heat which, at present, we are not using, such as, for example, the great Amazon forests and the Congo forest and the grasslands of Africa. How much are weactually using? Only a little over one acre is what is required to support one human being on an average at the present time.16. The world's population is increasing because _______.A) the number of babies born every year is about 16 percent of thetotal populationB) the birth rate is about 1.6 percent higher than the death rateC) the birth rate is going up by 1.6 percent per annumD) the death rate is going down by about 1.6 percent every year17. The author mentions the different populations of Canada, Australia,and England and Wales in order to _______.A) show how small these countries areB) show how quickly those countries are populatedC) emphasize the low rate of increase of world populationD) emphasize the high rate of increase of world population18. According to the passage which of the following is not the cause fordeath?A) Poor living condition. B) Fatal diseases like malaria.C) Poor medical service. D) Less food to feed people.19. By "Death Control" the author means _______.A) a rather different kind of Birth ControlB) control of the world's populationC) the prevention or cure of diseasesD) the spread of knowledge in the world20. From the passage we can conclude _______.A) the problem of land is not very seriousB) the problem of land can be solved by removing Death ControlC) the problem of land should be solved by reducing the populationD) there is still potential to tap in the use of landPart II.

Reading Comprehension (35 minutes):Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Aristotle, the Greek philosopher, summed up the four chief qualities of money some 2,000 years ago. It must be lasting, easy to recognize, to divide, and to carry about. In other words it must be, 'durable, distinct, divisible and portable'. When we think of money today, we picture it either as round, flat pieces of metal which we call coins, or as printed paper notes. But there are still parts of the world today where coins and notes are of no use. They will buy nothing, and a traveler might starve if he had none of the particular local 'money' to exchange for food.Among isolated peoples, who are not often reached by traders from outside, commerce usually means barter. There is a direct exchange of goods. Perhaps it is fish for vegetables, meat for grain, or various kinds of food in exchange for pots, baskets, or other manufactured goods. For this kind of simple trading, money isn't needed, but there is often something that everyone wants and everybody can use, such as salt to flavor food, shells for ornaments, or iron and copper to make into tools and vessels. These things--salt, shells or metals--are still used as money in out-of-the-way parts of the world today.Salt may seem rather a strange substance to use as money, but in countries where the foodof the people is mainly vegetable, it is often an absolute necessity. Cakes of salt, stamped to show their value, were used as money in Tibet until recent times, and cakes of salt will still buy goods in Borneo and parts of Africa.Cowrie sea shells have been used as money at some time or another over the greater part of the Old World. These were collected mainly from the beaches of the Maldives Islands in the Indian Ocean, and were traded to India and China. In Africa, cowries were traded right across the continent from East to West. Four or five thousand went for one Maria Theresa dollar, an Austrian silver coin which was once accepted as currency in many parts of Africa.Metal, valued by weight, preceded coins in many parts of the world. Iron, in lumps, bars or rings is still used in many countries instead of money. It can be either exchanged for goods, or made into tools, weapons or ornaments. The early money of China, apart from shells, was of bronze, often in flat, round pieces with a hole in the middle, called 'cash'. The earliest of these are between three thousand and four thousand years old--older than the earliest coins of the eastern Mediterranean.Nowadays, coins and notes have supplanted nearly all the more picturesque forms of money, and although in one or two of the more remote countries people still keep it for future use on ceremonial occasions such as weddings and funerals, examples of primitive money will soon be found only in museums.1. The best title for this passage is ______.A) The Development of Money B) Salt--A Best Form of MoneyC) Money D) Primitive Money in Use2. In some parts of the world a traveller might starve ______.A) even if his money was of the local kindB) even if he had no coins or notesC) if he did not know the local rate of exchangeD) even if he had plenty of coins and notes3. One type of early Chinese money was _______.A) made from bones B) called 'cash'C) better than eastern Mediterranean coinsD) in the form of bronze bars4. According to the passage, if a traveller goes to a out-of-the-waycountry, _______.A) it's better to take some salt, shells or metals with himB) it's better to take his own foodC) he will probably starveD) he should take some coins and notes with him5. According to the passage, primitive money ______.A) is almost out of circulationB) is still used in trade in remote countriesC) will be used in museumsD) was made of metalQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The discovery of the Antarctic not only proved one of the most interesting of all geographical adventures, but created what might be called the heroic age of Antarctic exploration. By their tremendous heroism, men such as Shackleton, Scott, and Amundsen caused a new continent to emerge from the shadows, and yet that heroic age, little more than a century old, is already passing.Modern science and inventions are revolutionizing the techniques of former explorers, and, although still calling for courage and feats of endurance, future journeys into these icy wastes will probably depend on motor vehicles equipped with caterpillar traction rather than on the dogs that earlier discoverers found so invaluable.Few realize that this Antarctic continent is almost equal in size to South America, and an enormous field of work awaits geographers and prospectors. The coasts of this continent remain to be accurately charted, and the mapping of the whole of the interior presents a difficult task to the cartographers who undertake the work. Once their labors are completed, it will be possible to prospect the vast natural resources which scientists believe will provide one of the largest treasure deposits of metals and minerals the world has yet known, and almost inexhaustible sources of copper, coal, uranium, and many other ores will become available to man. Such discoveries will bring about an era of practical exploitation of the Antarctic wastes.Plans are already on foot to set up permanent bases on the shores of this continent, and what so few years ago was regarded as a "dead continent" now promises to be a most active center of human life and endeavor.6. The reason the author mentioned Shackleton, Scott and Amundsen in thefirst paragraph is probably that they ______.A) proved that the discovery of the Antarctic was one of the mostinteresting of all geographical adventuresB) are improving the techniques for Antarctic explorationC) created the heroic age of Antarctic explorationD) contributed much to the exploration of the Antarctic7. According to the passage, future Antarctic exploration _______.A) still requires courage and feats of enduranceB) can be performed by machineryC) can be performed by dogsD) will mainly rely on charts and maps8. Before the natural resources of the Antarctic can be exploited andutilized, ______.A) people must realize the significance of the exploration of thenew continentB) an enormous field of work of geographic surveys must be carriedoutC) permanent bases must first be set up on the new continentD) it must be known how to make natural resources available to man9. The title of this passage may be _______.A) Antarctic--A Continent to be ExploredB) Antarctic and its Heroic AgeC) Antarctic--A Mysterious ContinentD) Antarctic--A Continent of Adventure10. According to the author, the exploration of the Antarctic is of greatsignificance because the new continent _______.A) is of the same size as South AmericaB) is abundant in natural resourcesC) will be the place for a heroic age of geographical adventuresD) both A) and B)。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and you should decide which is the best choice. (40 points)Passage 1Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:The United States is full of automobiles. There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or even more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are necessary part of life.Cars are used for business. They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they have to drive in order to carry their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies.Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school buses are used only when children live more than a mile from the school. When the children are too young to walk that far, their mothers take turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Mondays, taking her own children and neighbors' children as well. Another drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesdays, and so on. This is called forming a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work.More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer automobiles on the road and to use less gasoline. Parking is a great problem, and so is the traffic in and around cities. Too many cars are being driven. Something will have to be done about the useof cars.26. Many families in the U.S. own cars because ________.A) cars are a source of pleasure for themB) they need a car to form a car poolC) they live more than a mile away from the schoolD) cars form necessary part in their life27. Which of the following groups is NOT mentioned though they certainly drive cars?A) Office workers.B) Police and mail carriers.C) Salesmen and farmers.D) Factory workers.28. Paragraph 3 suggests that in the United States ________.A) children have to walk to schoolB) school buses take all the children to schoolC) mothers drive children to schoolD) families usually live within a mile from the school29. "A car pool" most probably means ________.A) a number of people sharing the use of a carB) a place for parking carsC) a group of tourists driving alternativelyD) a place for learning to drive30. What is the author's advice about the use of cars?A) To provide larger parking spaces.B) To build better roads.C) To produce fewer automobiles.D) To form more car pools.Passage 2Question 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Recent fires have destroyed much of Indonesian forests and pose the latest threat to the survival of the endangered orangutans(红毛猿). Thirty orangutans fleeing their burning forest home have been killed by villagers, who see the animals as crop raiders. Orangutan mothers have been killed so that their young can be captured and sold into the illegal wildlife pet trade. Orangutan experts continue to receive orangutan infants whose mothers have been killed while searching for food in plantations and fields.The fires, caused by drought and coupled with fire-setting methods to clear forests, have destroyed more than two million acres. When fire gets into the rainforests' layer of dry peat (partly decayed plant material which covers the soil), it can burn slowly off and on for months or years after the original fire. These fires continue until heavy rainfall soaks the peat through and through. Orangutans once numbered in the hundreds of thousands, but their population has dropped to roughly 25 000 due to fire, the destruction of forests from felling trees for timber and agriculture, and losses linked to the live-animal trade. Before the fires, only 40percent of the orangutans' original habitat remained, and now, their habitat has become even smaller.31. What can be the best title for this passage?A) Fires Drive Orangutans to Danger.B) Orangutans Are Precious Animals.C) Fires in Indonesia Keep on Flaming.D) Orangutans Endanger the Crops of Indonesia.32. Which of the following is true about villagers?A) They set fire in order to kill orangutans for food.B) They are ignorant of wild life pets trade.C) They dislike orangutans because they destroy crops.D) They continue to receive orangutans infants.33. According to this passage, fires in Indonesia ________.A) will not end until it starts to rainB) will be eventually put out by human effortC) will die out when the winds stop blowingD) will only stop when the peat is totally wet34. Some people buy orangutans because ________.A) they want to save orangutansB) they want to keep orangutans as petsC) they want to build new homes for orangutansD) they want to take care of orangutan infants35. Which of the following is NOT a reason for the decreasing of orangutans in Indonesia?A) The forests have been burned to make land for agriculture.B) Most of orangutans' forests have been destroyed.C) Mother orangutans have been caught and sold in pet-animal market.D) Trees have been cut down for human profits.Passage 3Question 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Don't try kicking the tires on a very modern and strange car developed by students at Coventry University. Not only does the car have no tires, it has no steering wheel, either.The Coventry Concept Car, as it is called is a completely new design that looks more like a snail(蜗牛)than an automobile. No working model, or functional form of the vehicle exists yet, but its designers recently introduced a life-sized model and explained how a real one would work.Electric motors would move rapidly undulating pad(形成波浪状气垫)underneath the car; moving the vehicle in any direction at speeds up to 480 km per hour. The motion would be a much faster way of crawling ? the way snails move. (Muscles in the bottom of a snail's flat foot contract(收缩)in waves that push the snail along the ground.)Steering of the snail car would be handled automatically by an onboard computer, which would receive signals from orbiting satellites. Those signals would help guide the snail car along a preprogrammed route.Even the car's color could be computer-controlled, the student designer suggested. Instead of a painted out appearance, the snail car would sport an electronically sensitive film that changes color according to its surroundings.36. The Coventry Concept Car is designed mainly based on ________.A) the appearance of a snailB) the movement of a snailC) the life-size of a snailD) the behavior of a snail37. Which of the following is true about the Coventry Concept Car?A) Its first working model can run at 480 km per hour.B) Its direction is controlled by a steering wheel.C) It moves in all directions on a pair of flat feet.D) It travels automatically along preprogrammed routes.38. The color of the car can be changed ______.A) by applying different films onto its exteriorB) automatically in accordance with its surroundingsC) by signals received by the car computerD) according to the customer's requirement39. The word "sport" in the last but one line most probably means _______.A) applyB) wearC) runD) notice40. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A) A Car at a Speed of a SnailB) A Computer-Controlled Electronic VehicleC) A Car Without Tires and Steering WheelD) A Car with No Functional FormPassage 4Question 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Have you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?Many people are afraid to assert themselves(坚持自己的权利). Dr. Alberti, author of Stand Up, Speak Out, and Talk Back, thinks it's because their self-respect is low. "Our whole set-up is designed to make people distrust themselves," says Alberti. "There's always a 'superior' around: a parent, a teacher, a boss who 'knows better'." But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help those people assert themselves. They offer "Assertiveness Training" courses ? AT for short. In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves. They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so. They learn to be aggressive without hurting other people.In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear. A group taking an AT course will help the timid person to lose his fear. But AT uses an even stronger motive ? the need to share. The timid person speaks out in the group because he wantsto tell how he feels.Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image. If someone you face is more "important" than you, you may feel less of a person. You start to doubt your own good sense.You go by the other person's label. But, why should you? AT says you can get to feel good about yourself. And once you do, you can learn to speak out.41. The problem the writer talks about is that _______.A) some people buy things they don't wantB) some people are afraid of arguing for themselvesC) there are too many "superiors" around usD) there is too much pressure from our society42.

(40 points)Passage 1Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:An unusual cooperation between the local university and other education providers in East Anglia has seen the establishment of Norwich's new Learning Shop. At thecity center shop, local people can look through booklets and leaflets to find out about learning opportunities ranging from evening classes to postgraduates(研究生)degrees. Skilled staff are on hand to give accurate information about courses and training in the region.More than 11,000 people have visited the shop since it opened in 1997. The majority of inquiries have been about courses in further education, but 17 percent have related to higher education in general.Customer feedback(反馈)confirms how valuable the resource is. A woman's comment is typical: "It's a brilliant idea ― less daunting tha n going to the different institutions." A seller told us: "This really gives you hope you can get back into something."Fellow institutions are welcome to set up exhibitions and events at the shop: to date, these have included poetry readings, a recorder concert and numerous exhibitions and displays. The shop is staffed by two advisers and other colleagues from the fellowinstitutions in the region.Speaking at the "Norwich as a Learning City" conference, Prof. Mike Campell at the local university, said the first barrier(障碍)to learning was lack of information. The Learning Shop aims to break down that barrier.26. For what purpose is the Learning Shop set up?A) To help people know more about higher education.B) To sell booklets and leaflets of the institutions.C) To provide educational opportunities to old people.D) To promote courses and training in the region.27. The word "daunting" (Line 2, Para. 3) is close to________ in meaning.A) disappointingB) boringC) worryingD) discouraging28. What are the visitors to the Learning Shop mainly interested in?A) Further education courses.B) University degree courses.C) Evening classes.D) Part-time courses.29. The events we can find in the Learning Shop include the following EXCEPT________.A) recorder concertsB) local conferencesC) poetry readingsD) displays and exhibitions30. Which of the following is TRUE according to Prof. Mike Campell?A) The city authorities should run more learning shops.B) People have difficulties in finding out about learning opportunities.C) The staff should provide customers with accurate information.D) Most people want to go back to college.Passage 2Question 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Not all language is verbal. Some of our communication occurs without words. We often use our entire bodies for communication. We may raise our eyebrows(眉毛)to indicate surprise. Perhaps we nod our heads to show that we agree with something. There are hundreds of nonverbal signals that can be used to communicate. These signals are part of language, and they are governed by rules in the same way that our spoken language is. For this reason, people who speak different languages often use different nonverbal signals as well.In addition to verbal communication and the type of nonverbal communication discussed above, there are other message systems that we use to communicate. When we speak to some people, we may stand very close to them, while we may stand far away from other people. Use of space, then, is a way we can communicate the relationship we feel with another person. The way we dress can also communicate for us. The person who wears dirty jeans and a T-shirt communicates a different attitudefrom a person who wears neat trousers and an attractive shirt. We can even use time to communicate. The person who is on time for an appointment shows a different attitude from the person who is an hour late does. Can you think of other message systems we use in communication?31. Language, according to the passage, is actually ________.A) verbal onlyB) verbal and nonverbal as wellC) the use of our bodiesD) nonverbal signals32. Nonverbal signals ________.A) have few rulesB) are more useful than speechC) are often used in communicationD) are entirely separate from language33. If a person wears a suit and a tie, it is a matter of ________.A) attitudeB) relationshipC) formalityD) habit34. People who do not speak the same language ________.A) have no nonverbal signals in commonB) cannot communicate with nonverbal signalsC) often have different nonverbal signalsD) use the same nonverbal signals35. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a form of nonverbal communication?A) Pace.B) Time.C) Dressing.D) Space.Passage 3Question 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:The market is a concept. If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale, you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbors and some to the manager of a local store. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you may stop producing.If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing service for the market. If your father is a steelworker or a truck driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or services for the market.When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. If you spend money in stores, supermarkets, gas stations, and restaurants, you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck(送货车), he is buying your labor in the labor market.The market is everywhere, and it's very real. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won't be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something. It's。

Washington, D.C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Luvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art produced electronically (通过电子手段) by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he starts the museum because computer artistes had no place to show their work.A computer artist could only record his pictures electronicallyand send the records or floppy discs (软盘), to others to see on their computers. He could also print his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needs an expensive laser(激光)printer.Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Shostak said the FIU museum would make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.11.The main purpose of this passage is to give information about_____________.A. famous museums throughout the worldB. an electronic art museum in Miami, U.S.A.C. art exhibitions in Florida International UniversityD. latest development of computer art12.To see the art in FIU museum, your special needs include_____________.A. floppy discsB. a computer and a printerC. pictures and drawings on paperD. a computer connected to the museum by a telephone line13.What are stored in this museum?A. Paintings drawn by means of the computer.B. Different styles of paintings.C. Old paintings.D. Drawings done by art students of FIU.14.The museum was started when___________.A. Robert Shostak wanted to do something for computer scientistsB. Robert Shostak wanted to help computer artistsC. art students needed better places to show their worksD. computer scientists wanted to do something about art15.The word “audience” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.A. art studentsB. computer ownersC. exhibits in the museumD. those who will enjoy artPassage 2“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.“Cool” ca n be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer.We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words s uch as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can youthink of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.16.We know that the word “cool” has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning17.In the pa ssage, the word “express” means “________”.A. seeB. showC. knowD. feel18.If you are _______ something, you may say, “It’s cool.”A. interested inB. angry aboutC. afraid ofD. unhappy with19.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried aboutD. careful with20.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word “cool”________.A. cannot be replaced by other wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colourfulD. shouldn’t be overusedPassage 3For any Englishman, t here can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest dramatist (剧作家). Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed sinc e Shakespeare’s day.21.English people ____________.A. have never dis cussed who is the world’s greatest dramatistB. never discuss any issue concerning the world’s greatest dramatistC. are sure who is the world’s greatest dramatistD. do not care who is the world’s greatest poet and dramatist22.Every Englishman knows ______________.A. more or less about ShakespeareB. Shakespeare, but only slightlyC. all Shakespeare’s writingsD. only the name of the greatest English writer23.Which of the following is true?A. We use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s wr itings.B. Shakespeare’s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.C.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Passage 1.When your parents advise you to "get an education" in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.Get a college degree, if possible. With a B.A., you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a master's degree, make sure it is an M.B.A, and isfamous law of diminishing returns begins to take effect.Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24000, while the full professors managed to earn just $23030. A Ph.D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph.D.s unemloyed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or-worst of all-in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands. Thousands of Ph.D.s are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the janitor earns. You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.51.According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who _____.A)will not be a disgrace to society B)will become loyal citizensC)can take care of themselves D)can meet the nation's demands as a source of manpower52.Many Ph.D.s are out of job because _____.A)they are improperly educated B)they are of little commercial value to their societyC)there are fewer jobs in high schools D)they prefer easier jobs that make more money53.The nation is only interested in people _____.A)with diplomas B)who specialize in physics and chemistryC)who are valuable to the gross national product D)both A and C54.Which of the following is not true?A)Bernard Shaw didn't finish high schools, nor did Edison.B)One must think carefully before pursuing a master degree.C)The higher your education level, the more money you will earn.D)If you are too well-educated, you'll be overeducated for society's demands.55.The writer sees education as _____.A)a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a country's demands fortechnical workersB)a way to broaden one's horizonsC)more important than finding a jobD)an opportunity that everyone should havePart IV Translation ( 英译汉) 15% 请将以下句子翻译成中文:1、The lecturer at the conference turned out to be the daughter of an old friend of mine.大会报告人原来是我的一位老朋友的女儿。

Each passage is followed by five question, for each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET.Passage 1“You must be mad” was the general comment of family, friends and colleagues. “Giving up a teaching post now, when there isn’t much chance of finding another one, ever!”“And what about all that lovely money you’re earning, and all those long holidays!”But I had already come to my lonely decision, after months of concealed suffering. The devil of unemployment should be enough to make those of us fortunate enough to have a job pulling up the drawbridge (吊桥) behind us, and yet here was I, prepared to join the noisy army on the opposite bank.But I knew I could no longer continue in the teaching profession. To wake up in the morning with a fear of the day ahead, to force ahasty breakfast down an unwilling throat and then set off for work with pounding heart and frozen face had become habitual, and I had turned to tranquilizers (镇定剂) to help me along.It had not always been as bad as this. Ten years before I had managed well enough, and the holidays used to come round just in time.But I, in common with most other teachers, am enormously self-critical, and I knew now that I was no longer “managing”. My classes were noisy, the children were not learning very much, and my’ attempts to cope with changing teaching methods produced very little effect. At one time my very presence in the doorway would be enough to ensure a partial silence. Now they give a vague “Hello, Miss”, and carry on. I had run out of enjoyment and enthusiasm. It was time to stop.But was it all my own failure? In fairness to myself, I don’t think it was. I had plenty of ideas, I loved my subject, and, by and large, I liked children.I had been idealistic. But the reality I faced was bored children, over-stimulated by video-watching the night before and tired out by a late bedtime. They were children who were given the wrong food at the wrong time, who came breakfast-less to school and then stuffed themselves with gum, chocolates and sweets bought on the way; who were “high” with hunger in the lesson before lunchtime and giggled (咯咯地笑) restlessly as the cooking smell from the school kitchen came drifting to all floors.I have been trying to create the basic conditions in which teaching becomes possible, but I have failed, and no longer have the stomach for the job. And that is why I’m giving up.31. What does “the noisy army” (Para. 3) refer to? CA) a military force B) a labour union C) the unemployedD) demonstrators32. The writer decided to quit her job chiefly because _____C_______.A) the teaching profession is too much for herB) she was too hard on herself and therefore unhappy with her teaching effectC) the class had become impossible to teachD) she didn’t like new teach ing methods33. Which of the following statement is closest in meaning to “At one time my verypresence in the doorway would be enough to ensure a partial silence.” (Para6)? AA) Formerly, my arrival at the classroom would very well make at least some ofthe students stop talking or playing.B) For a while, when I appeared in the doorway, the class would quite down.C) Every time I made my appearance in the doorway, the students would becomesilent.D) Once in the past, I could silence half of the class simply by standing in thedoorway!34. All of the following are reasons that children couldn’t concentrate in class EXCEPT ____B____.A) they were tired because they went to bed too lateB) they were fed up with their lessons and school workC) they were not properly fed by their parentsD) they were overexcited by too much video-watching the night before35. Which of the following about the writer is true? BA) Being too young, the writer found it difficult to grow affectionate for children.B) As she set off for work, she felt nervous at the prospect of teaching.C) It was very difficult for her to give up teaching.D) Although she was responsible, she never truly enjoyed teaching.Passage 2Today’s kids absorb lots of me ssages, values and attitudes from the media and from friends. Advertisements whet their appetite for many things they don’t need. What they do need is an understanding of the value of the dollar.How do kids learn to be economically savvy (机智的) ? Most schools do not teach the financial facts of life; it’s up to parents to help kids grow into responsible and skillful money earners, savers and spenders.To learn about money, kids first need to have some. Early on, parents often hand out money on an as-needed basis. But experts say paying a regular allowance isthe best way to teach children the meaning of money, how to use it and how to plan. Some call it “learning capital”.A child is ready for an allowance around age five or six, when he becomes aware of the relationship between money and shopping, can differentiate coins, can add and subtract, has spending opportunities and asks parents to buy him things.How much allowance? Some experts recommend giving a dollar for each year of age, but Sharon Danes, a professor at the University of Minnesota disagrees: “I think $ 5 a week is too much for a five-year-old, and $15 is probably not enough for a 15-year-old.” What’s right for the child depends on three factors: the child’s level of development, what the parents can afford, and what the parents expect him to pay for.Whatever the amount, kids will soon feel they need more. But Sharon Danes insists that children don’t need an automatic raise each year. “There’s no lesson to be learned when children expect an increase just because they’re a year older,” she says. “The reason for getting a greater part of the family-income pie is so they can learn more about balancing demands and resources.”36. In Para. 1, “whet their appetite” most pr obably means ______A______.A) make them wish for more B) spoil their appetiteC) sharpen their sensation D) stimulate their consuming power37. What is the best way for children to learn to be economically savvy? CA) Parents don’t give them money until they really need it.B) Children are taught the financial facts of life at school.C) Parents regularly give them a certain amount of money.D) Parents help children become skillful money earners.38. At the age of five or six, children are capable of all the following EXCEPT _D__.A) identifying the face value of moneyB) solving simple arithmetic problemsC) knowing that with money they can get things from storesD) going shopping themselves39. What is Professo r Sharon Danes’ attitude toward the proposal of giving children a dollar for each year of age? CA) She believes this will surely encourage children to ask for more.B) She doubts whether there is such thing as “right amount” for parents to give t otheir children.C) She thinks it is unnecessary to increase the amount each year.D) She insists that children can only get money when they study well.40. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the last sentence of the passage?AA) The purpose of giving children money is to let them know more about how touse money and how to plan.B) If they want to get more from the family income, they must have enoughknowledge of family economy.C) Children can get more money on the condition that they are able to balancedemands and resources.D) To give children more money is to make them understand the importance ofbalancing demands and resources.Passage 3A number of recent books have reworked subjects, forms and writingte chniques. Today’s children read stories about divorce, death, drugs, air pollution, political extremism and violence. Relying on the magic of the illustrator, all kinds of books are being published.Before they know to read, babies can play with books made of cloth or books made to take in the bath. Later on, they are given picture books that may be cubical(立方形)or triangular, outsized or very small. They also likework-books which come with watercolors and paintbrushes, and comic books(漫画册)filled with details where they have to spot a figure hidden among thousands of others.Not that the traditional chil dren’s books are being neglected. There are still storybooks where the pages pop up(跳起)when they are opened, to make a forest or a castle. Among the latest ideas are interactive stories where readers choose the plot(情节)or ending theywant, and books on CD, which are very popular in rich industrialized countries.The public has enthusiastically greeted the wealth of creativity displayed by publishers. "Previously, giving a child a book as often seen as improper," says Canadian author Marie-France Hebért. Her books, published by a French-language publisher, sell like hot cakes in hundreds of thousands of copies. "There’s a real appetite for reading these days and I try to get across to children the passion forreading which is food for the mind and the heart, like a medicine or a vitamin."41."Reworked" as used in Paragraph 1 means "_________D__________".A) rewordedB) rewrittenC) processedD) revised42.In the second paragraph the author lists the kinds of books ______D____________.A) recently publishedB) of various shapesC) babies likeD) popular among children43.Which of the following statements is true? CA) Books made of cloth came out earlier than picture books.B) When you buy work-books you will be given free comic books.C) Traditiona l children’s books are not being removed from market.D) Babies cannot have books while taking a bath.44. The expression "get across to children" in the last paragraph probably means"_______A____________".A) pass on to childrenB) make children believeC) teach childrenD) get around to children45.The main idea of the last paragraph is that people have ______B_____________.A) warmly welcomed the abundance of wealth shown by publishersB) warmly welcomed the enormous amount of creativity shown by publishersC) showed great enthusiasm in publishers of treat wealthD) reacted strongly to the unlimited creativity of publishersPassage 4Every body gets sick. Disease and injury make us suffer throughout our lives until, finally, some attack on the body brings our existence to an end. Fortunately, most of us in modern industrialized societies can take relatively good health for granted most of the time. In fact, wetend to fully realize the importance of good health only when we or those close to us become seriously ill. At such times we keenly appreciate the ancient truth that health is our most precious asset, one for which we might readily give up such rewards as power, wealth, or fame(荣誉).Because ill health is universal problem, affecting both the individual and society, the human response to sickness is always socially organized. No society leaves the responsibility for maintaining health and treating ill health entirely to the individual. Each society develops its own concepts of health and sickness and authorizes certain people to decide who is sick and how the sick should be treated. Around this focus there arises, over time, a number of standards, values, groups, statuses, and roles: in other words, an institution(体系;机构).To the sociologist(社会学家), then, medicine is the institution concerned with the maintenance of health and treatment of disease.In the simplest pre-industrial societies, medicine is usually an aspect of religion. The social arrangements for dealing with sickness are very elementary, often involving only two roles: the sick and the healer(治疗者).The latter is typically also the priest(牧师), who reliesprimarily on religious ceremonies, both to identify and to treat disease: for example, bones may be thrown to establish a cause, songs may be used to bring about a cure. In modern industrialized societies, on the other hand, the institution has become highly complicated and specialized, including dozens of roles such as those of brain surgeon, druggist, hospital administrator, linked with various organizations such as nursinghomes, insurance companies, and medical schools. Medicine, in fact, has become the subject of intense sociological interest precisely because it is now one of the most pervasive and costly institutions of modern society.46.Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 1? BA) Nowadays most people believe they can have fairly good health.B) Human life involves a great deal of pain and suffering.C) Most of us are aware of the full value of health.D) Ancient people believed that health was more expensive than anything else.47.The word "authorize" in Paragraph 2 means "______B_____________".A) make way forB) give power toC) write an order forD) make it possible for48.In Paragraph 2, we learn that the sociologist regards medicine as_________A__________.A) a system whose purpose is to treat disease and keep people healthyB) a universal problem that affects every societyC) a social responsibility to treat ill healthD) a science that focuses on the treatment of disease49.According to Paragraph 3, which of the following is NOT true? CA) In the past, bones might be used to decide why people fell ill.B) In pre-industrial societies priests sometimes treated patients by singing.C) Modern medicine is so complicated that sociology no longer has a place in it.D) There were only two roles in an elementary medical system, the patient and the one who tried to cure him.50.The author of this passage is mainly concerned with _______A____________.A) sociological aspects in medicineB) medical treatment of diseasesC) the development of medical scienceD) the role of religion in medicinePart III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

(10*2′= 20 marks)Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal (残酷的), has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation (冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox’s smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.1. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes________.A. for recreationB. in the interests of the farmersC. to limit the fox populationD. to show of their wealth2. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.B. It is a costly event which rarely occurs.C. The hunters have set rules to follow.D. The hunters have to go through strict training.3. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game________.A. by resorting to violenceB. by confusing the fox huntersC. by taking legal actionD. by demonstrating on the scene4. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to________.A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxesB. forbid hunting foxes with dogsC. stop hunting wild animals in the countrysideD. prevent large-scale fox hunting5. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. killing foxes with poison is illegalB. limiting the fox population is unnecessaryC. hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violentD. fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the rich Passage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.The home computers industry has been growing rapidly in the United States for the last ten years. Computers used to be large, expensive machines that were very difficult to use. But scientists and technicians have been making them smaller and cheaper while at the same time they have been made easier to use. As a result, their popularity has been increasing as more people have been buying computers for their homes and businesses. Computers have been designed to store information and compute complex problems. Some have voices that speak with the operators. Stores use computers to keep records of their inventories and to send bills to their customers. Offices use computers to type letters, record business and communicate with other offices. People have been using computers in their homes to keep track of expenses and turn appliances on and off.One important new use for computers is for entertainment. Many new games have been designed to be played on the computers. People of all ages have been playing these games. They have been going to Arcades where the computer games can be played for a small cost. People also have been buying home computers to play computer games at home. They have become very popular indeed.6. Computers in the United States used to be ________.A. too small to useB. niceC. heavyD. large and expensive7. Computers have been getting more popular ________.A. because the Americans want to appear richB. because they are smaller, cheaper and easier to useC. because they can help Americans do everythingD. because they can type letters8. According to the passage computers can be used to do the following EXCEPT ________.A. to turn machines on and offB. to work out complex problemsC. to produce machinesD. to keep tracks of expenses9. ________ have been playing computer games.A. ChildrenB. Young peopleC. Old peopleD. People of all ages10. It may be concluded that ________.A. computers have been widely used by AmericansB. Computers can’t solve complex problemsD. Computers are new machines.Ⅳ. Cloze.(10*1′= 10 marks)For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade and publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have 6 meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 7 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 8 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 9 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization-sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.1. A. applying B. doing C. offering D. getting2.

The warning: The sun’s summe rtime rays are more dan gerous than once thought.A team of scientists from 80 nations recently reported to the United Nations that a layer of ozone in the atmosphere, which protects humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet radiation, will be thinner over the United States this summer. The thinner layer allows more ultraviolet rays from the sun to reach earth. The extra amount of ultraviolet radiation could caused an increase in the number of cases of skin cancer.Scientists first became concerned about the ozone layer in the mid-1980s when a hole was discovered in the layer above Antarctica during the winter. The hole was caused by chemicals used in refrigerators and air conditioners. When these chemicals are sent out into the atmosphere, they produce gases that destroy the ozone.Concern about the protective ozone layer rose more recentlywhen data from satellites and ground stations showed that ozone levels were dropping over areas other than Antarctica. Low ozone levels were recorded in the spring and summer over the United States and over other populated areas in the world.Although many countries have already begun stopping the use of ozone-destroying chemicals, the new findings are expected to advance the timetable for a total ban of the chemicals1.The scientists have observed the ozone layer ______A_______-.A.since 1980B.since last winterC.for more than 10 yearsD.for about one year2.The ozone layer in the atmosphere can _____D_______.A.do a lot of good to human beings in many waysB.protect humans from diseases caused by bad weatherC.do a lot of harm to human beings in the summertimeD.protect humans from harmful levels of ultraviolet radiation3.Scientists first found that there was a hole in the ozone layer____B_______.A.above Arctic during the winter in the mid-1980sB.above Antarctica during the winter in the mid-1980sC.over somewhere in the north of the equator in 1980sD.over the U. S. A. in the summertime in the mid-1980s4.The damage to the ozone layer was caused by________B_____.A.the changeable weatherB.ozone-destroying chemicalsC.chemicals from refrigeratorsD.chemicals from air conditioners5.Which of the following is Not true? AA.The use of ozone-destroying chemicals have already been stopped.B.The ozone levels in the spring and summer over U. S. A. were low.C.More and more people have begun to protect the natural surroundings.D.Many countries have already taken measures to protect ozone layer. Passage TwoDoes a bee know what is going on in its mind when it navigates its way to distant food sources and back to the hive (蜂房), using polarized sunlight and the tiny magnet it carries as a navigational aid? Or is the bee just a machine, unable to do its mathematics and dance its language in any other way? To use Dondald Griffin’s term, does a bee have “awareness”, or to use a phrase I like better, can a bee think and imagine?There is an experiment for this, or at least an observation, made long ago by Karl von Firsch and more recently confirmed by James Gould in Princeton. Biologists who wish to study such things as bee navigation, language, and behavior in general have to train their bees to fly from the hive to one or another special place. To do this, they begin by placing a source of sugar very close to the hive so that the bees (considered by their trainers to be very dumb beasts) can learn what the game is about. Then, at regular interval, the dish or whatever is moved progressively farther and farther from the hive, in increments (增加量) of about 25 percent at each move. Eventually, the target is being moved 100 feet or more at a jump, very far from the hive. Sooner or later,while this process is going on, the biologist shifting the dish of sugar will find the bees are out there waiting for them, precisely where the next position had been planned. This is an uncomfortable observation to make.6. The best title for the passage is ___C__.A. Teaching the Bees to NavigateB. Testing the Awareness of BeesC. Navigational Techniques of BeesD. Behaviorists Versus Biologists: A Zoological Debate7. The word “awareness” in paragraph 1 appears in quotation marks in order to ___C__.A. show the author's preference for the termB. indicate that it is being used humorouslyC. acknowledge Donald Griffin’s previous use of the termD. point out that it was used differently earlier in the passage8. In the second paragraph Karl von Frisch is mentioned ___A__.A. to introduce his observation on bee behaviorB. to contrast his theories with those of James GouldC. acknowledge Donald Griffin’s previous use of the termD. point out that it was used differently earlier in the passage9. According to the author, sugar was used in the study __B___.A. to reward the bees for performing the experiment correctlyB. to train the bees to travel to a particular placeC. to ensure that the bees knew where the hive wasD. to ensure that the bees would obey the orders10. The result of the experiment explained in the passage seems to indicate that __D___.A. research using bees is too dangerous to be conductedsuccessfullyB. bees are unable to navigate beyond 100 feet their hiveC. scientists can teach bees to navigateD. bees are able to perform limited reasoning tasks《大学体验英语3》模拟试题B卷Part I Fill in the blanks(每题2分,共60分)1.Cancer is second only __B____ heart disease as a cause of death.A. ofB. toC. withD. from2.They are considering ________A________ before the prices go up.A. of buying the houseB. with buying the houseC. buying the houseD. to buy the house3.The dying soldier had the message _____A______ straight to the commander.A. sentB. be sentC. to be sentD. being sent4.There is not the ___A_____ doubt about what he said.A. slightestB. smallestC. weakestD. thinnest5.______A_______ had Jane reached school than the bell rang.A.

It is the most traditional American holiday. The first Thanksgiving was held in Massachusetts in 1621.After a year of great hardship, the colonists wanted to givethanks to God for their first harvest. They invited their Indian friends to join them in a big feast. Today the holiday is still celebrated as a day for giving thanks. But it wasn’t a regular national holiday until President Lincoln declared that the last Thursday in November would thereafter be Thanksgiving Day in 1863. It is a day of family reunion and it is customary to invite friends to share the meal. In some large cities, there are important football games that are played on Thanksgiving Day.For Americans, Thanksgiving Day is one of the few days of the year when the entire family gets together. Everyone is glad to see everyone else and there is a very busy exchange of greetings. The women soon disappear into the kitchen to help prepare the dinner. The men, meanwhile, settle down to watch a football game on television, or to discuss or politics. If weather permits, some of the more athletic men go outside to play ball with the children. Then everyone will sit down to dinner, in which traditional Thanksgiving foods such as stuffed turkey, sweet potatoes, chestnuts, and pumpkin pies are served. After dinner, people will sit around and talk.1.According to the passage, the first Thanksgiving Day was celebrated ____C________.A.in 1863B.in primitive timesC.over 300 years agoD.at the very beginning of civilization2.Which of the following statements about Thanksgiving Day is FALSE? AA.It falls on the same day in November every year.B.It is the most traditional American holiday.C.It is a regular national holiday.D.It is a day of family reunion.3.All of the following are customs associated with Thanksgiving Day EXCEPT_____B____.A.family members usually get together on Thanksgiving DayB.people send greeting cards to each otherC.in some cities, there are important football gamesD.people usually have Thanksgiving dinner served with traditional Thanksgiving foods4.President Lincoln is mentioned because ______A______.A.it is Present Lincoln who made Thanksgiving Day a regular national holidayB.Present Lincoln once took part in the celebration of Thanksgiving DayC.President Lincoln introduced the Indian holiday to the AmericansD.President Lincoln is the first U. S. President5._____D_____ serves as the best title for the passage.A.“Thanksgiving Dinner”B.“Thank God for a Good Harvest”C.“Thanksgiving Food”D.“Thanksgiving, a National Holiday”Passage TwoMore and more, the operations of our businesses, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purposes can reap big reward. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and been caught at it have managed to get away without punishment.It’s easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it’s disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may have been the victims of uncommonly bad luck.Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail,computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer had been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled (诈骗) the most confidential (保密) records right under the noses of the company’s executives, accountants, and security staff. An d so another computer criminal departs with just the recommendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.6. It can be concluded from the passage that ____A___________.A. it is still impossible to detect computer crimes todayB. people commit computer crimes at the request of their companyC. computer criminals escape punishment because they can’t be detectedD. computer crimes are the most serious problem in theoperation of financial institutions7. It is implied in the third paragraph that _______C__________.A. most computer criminals who are caught blame their bad luckB. the rapid increase of computer crimes is a troublesome problemC. most computer criminals are smart enough to cover up their crimesD. many more computer crimes go undetected than are discovered8.

Yet by the age of three they will have mastered the basic structure of their native language and will be well on their way to communicative competence. Acquiring their language is a most impressive intellectual feat.Studies of how children learn language generally agree that the most remarkable aspect of this feat is the rapid acquisition of grammar. Nevertheless, the ability of children to conform to grammatical rules is only slightly more wonderful than their ability to learn words. It has been estimated that the average highschool graduate in the United States has a reading vocabulary of 80,000words, which includes idiomatic expressions and proper names of people and places. This vocabulary must have been learned over a period of 16 years. From the figures, it can be calculated that the average child learns at a rate of about 13 new words per day. Clearly a learning process of great complexity goes on at a rapid rate in children.1. According to the passage, approximately how long does it take children to learn the basic structure of their native language? BA. One year.B. Three years.C. About two and half years.D. Thirteen years.2. What is the main subject of the passage? AA. Language acquisition in children.B. Teaching languages to children.C. How to memorize words.D. Communicating with infants.3. The word “feat” underlined is closest in meaning to which of the following? DA. Experiment.B. Idea.C. Activity.D. Accomplishment.4. The underlined word “which” refers to ___A____.A. reading vocabularyB. their abilityC. idiomatic expressionD. learning process5. According to the passage, what is impressive about the way children learn vocabulary? CA. They learn words before they learn grammar.B. They learn even very long words.C. They learn words very quickly.D. They learn the most words in high school.Passage TwoI am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the county. But how realistic is the dream?Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of fiats. Children become aggressive and nervous - cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough, whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t e ven say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the exciting and important。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and you should decide which is the best choice.Passage OneQuestions31 to35 are based on the following passage:A 1987 survey was given to 5,000 high school seniors. It showed that they did not know geography. Students in Boston were questioned. One-third of them could not name six New England states. Students in Baltimore were questioned. Half could not shade in the United States on a map. Here is what another survey showed. Students did not know history. Most did not know the dates of the American Civil War. Many did not know World War II leaders.Someone else asked this question. What did students think of social studies? Their answer: Social studies was not important. They said it was the least important of their studies.What is social studies? It is the study of individuals. It is the study of groups. It is the study of societies. Social studies covers many fields. You have read about history and geography. These are part of social studies. It covers many other areas as well. Let's say you study the way people live together in groups. This is an area of social studies. So is learning about very early people. So is studying government.Is social studies important? Early Americans thought so. Students then learned history and civics.This was to make them good citizens. A report from 1916 set a new goal. It said, "The social studies should cultivate a sense of membership in the world community." The world community is very large. But today it is easy to share ideas in it. We have radio and TV. We have phones. We have computers.Social studies helps us understand the world's people. It helps us know groups and societies. The 1916 goal was important then. It is even more important now. We all need to be good world citizens.31. Social studies ________.A) uses radios, TVs, and computersB) is the study of people, groups, and societiesC) can be understood by questioning studentsD) was first taught in 191632. Which fact supports the statement that students did not know geography?A) A survey questioned 5,000 students.B) Most students did not know when the Civil War was.C) Many students did not know World War II leaders.D) Half of the students from Baltimore couldn't locate the United States on a map.33. This passage makes it clear that ________.A) we are not members of a world communityB) social studies helps make good world citizensC) researchers should question more studentsD) social studies is not important34. The quotation marks around the sentence "The social studies should cultivate a sense of membership in the world community." show that it ________.A) is importantB) is the writer's opinionC) is the exact words from the 1916 reportD) was spoken by a high school students35. The word survey in this passage means a ________.A) general lookB) plan showing boundariesC) formal study or pollD) discussionPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:When you put money in a bank account, your money earns interest. This interest is a payment from the bank for the use of your money. The bank may pay you any interest rate it desires; these days the usual rate is around 5 percent. The basic formula for figuring out how much interest you will earn on an investment is fairly simple. To figure out the interest, multiply three things: the principal (or the amount you invest), the interest rate put into decimal form (5 percent would be written .05), and the time in years. The formula can be written as i = prt.The formula i = prt is for simple interest. It does not help you find interest that is compounded. Compounding occurs when you have your money alone. Then every so often the interest is computed again using a new principal. The formula for compound interest lets you find the value of an investment after some number of years. However, it is a fairly complex formula. If you want to work with it, you'll need a scientific calculator with an exponent(幂数)key.Most people find the compound interest formula perplexing. They ask a bank or other investment service to do the math for them. But there is a simple way to figure out when your money will double in value. This is called the "Rule of 72." If you divide the annual interest rateinto 72, the answer is the number of years it will take to double your savings. So money invested at 5 percent will take more than 14 years to double (72 divided by 5).Now here is a question to ponder. What happens if p equals zero? If you put that value for p into the formula, the answer will be zero. In other words, if you invest no principal, you'll get no interest. And although this is the simplest math of all, it is not a good long-term investment strategy!36. This passage is mostly about ________.A) understanding mathematical formulas useful in investingB) calculating interest from investment based on complicated formulasC) ways to figure out how much money you are earning in a bank accountD) scientific tools needed to work out interest rate37. The "Rule of 72" helps you find ________.A) the changing interest rates within 72 yearsB) the total interest you can get in 72 yearsC) the amount of money you should invest in 72 yearsD) the number of years it takes an investment to double in value38. At 7 percent annual interest, an investment will double in about ________.A) 10 monthsB) 10 yearsC) 72 monthsD) 72 years39. Letters are underlined in three words in the first paragraph in order to show that ________.A) the letters are part of the interest formulaB) the letters should be capitalizedC) the words they are in are spelled incorrectlyD) each letter stands for a number40. The word perplexing in this passage means ________.A) unnecessaryB) longC) confusingD) involving percentsPassage ThreeQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:A normal conversation between strangers involves more than talk. It also involves the dynamics of space interaction. If one person gets too close, the other person will back up. If the first person invades the other's space again, the other will back up again. The person who finds himself or herself backing up is trying to increase the distance of the comfort zone. The person closing in is trying to decrease that distance. Most likely neither person is fully aware of what is going on.In the 1960s American anthropologist(人类学者)Edward T. Hall was a pioneer in the study of human behavioral use of space. His field of study became known as proxemics. Hall said that personal space for Americans can be defined as having four distinct zones: the intimate zone within 18 inches of your body for whispering and embracing; personal zone of 18 inches to four feet, for talking with close friends; social zone of four to 10 feet, for talking with acquaintances; and the social zone of 10 to 25 feet, for talking to strangers or to a group.Historians say that our standards of personal space began with the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century. In cities such as London and New York, people of different social and economic classes were suddenly crammed together, so they unconsciously developed a commonly understood rule of polite behavior and space to restrict the area around them.People exhibit nonverbal messages of discomfort when their zones are violated.

The worst tremors reach 7.2 on the Richter scale. Kobe is Japan's sixth largest city. It is also one of the world's largest ports. Within minutes, Kobe was a disaster area.How bad was the damage? The earthquake was the worst to hit Japan in 72 years. There were more than 6,000 people dead. More than 35,000 were injured, and nearly 310,000 were left homeless. Some 75,000 buildings were damaged or destroyed. Total damage was estimated at $90 billion.Were the Japanese prepared for earthquakes? They thought they were. They were expecting a big earthquake to strike one of their major cities. But they did not know when, where, or how big the earthquake would be. Architects and engineers believed they had designed earthquake-proof buildings, transportation, and public services. Kobe's few minutes of earth tremors shattered that belief.What did people learn from the Kobe earthquake? What happened in Kobe suggests that earthquake hazard was not taken seriously enough. Some people believe that more can be done to reduce damage. They propose the following. More work should be put into quake-proofing buildings. Walls should be built to protect towns on the coast from large waves. Providers of emergency services must be better trained and better prepared. Citizens must be better educated onwhat to do when an earthquake strikes.The major barrier to doing more is cost. Japan finds itself trying balance the cost against the risk of a strong earthquake.46. Which sentence best tells what this passage says?A) Cities can be made earthquake proof.B) More can be done to reduce the damage of earthquake.C) Earthquakes always cause serious damage.D) Nothing can be done to reduce the damage of earthquake.47. How many people died in the Kobe earthquake?A) More than 6,000.B) At least 100,000C) Nearly 310000.D) 75,00048. What is the major difficulty in doing more to reduce the earthquake damage?A) People are not given enough training.B) Engineers do not have the knowledge.C) Protection is too costly.D) No one takes earthquakes seriously.49. The author's attitude in writing this passage is ________.(Only paragraph 1 is chronological!)A) analyticB) blamingC) provocativeD) indifferent50. "Tremors" probably means ________.A) earthquake-proving buildingsB) shaking movementsC) heavy thunderstormsD) natural disastersPart III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should choose the ONE answer that best fits into the passage.Many consumer products that you buy frequently come in more than one size. We all 51 that you save money if you buy the largest size you can use, and most of the time this assumption 52 to be true. Sometimes, however, the savings may not be significant. So 53 you automatically 54 the largest size of some product, you might want to do 55 math.Assume a product 56 two sizes: the smaller size has 24 ounces and costs $1.19; the larger size is 36 ounces 57 $1.69. To find the savings, if any, on the larger size, you can compute the unit prize. (Units are ounces, pounds, or whatever measure the product is sold in.) 58 , the unit price is the cost per ounce for each size, so use a calculator to divide the price 59 the number of ounces. You can see that the 36 ounce-size has a lower unit price, so it is the better buy.24 ounces for $1.19 $1.19 ÷ 24 ounces = 0.0495 = 4.95 ¢per ounce36 ounces for $1.69 $1.69 ÷ 36 ounces = 0.0469 = 4.69 ¢per ounceBut how much do you actually save 60 buying the larger size? To find out, subtract the two unit prices to 61 them: $0.0495 -$0.0469 = $0.0026. In this example, the difference in the unit prices is about $0.003 - only 62 of a penny! So if you don't really need the larger size of this 63 product, you probably 64 purchase it. 65 the price, another 66 to consider when choosing the size to buy is the expiration date on the product. If you're not likely to 67 the size to buy 68 the expiration date, then you should buy a smaller size.The next time you go to the supermarket, take a pocket calculator 69 you and try finding theunit prices 70 different sizes of some products. You may very well discover that a small size offers you the best value!。

We are busy第二部分:阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分30分)Passage 1There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington, D.C. has the National Gallery of Art; Paris has the Luvre; London, the British Museum. Florida International University (FIU) in Miami also shows art for people to see. And it does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. You just need a computer linked to a telephone.You can call the telephone number of a University computer and connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer. It is computer art produced electronically (通过电子手段) by artists on their own computers. In only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.Robert Shostak is director of the new computer museum. He says he starts the museum because computer artistes had no place to show their work.A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records or floppy discs (软盘), to others to see on their computers. He could also print his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needs an expensive laser(激光)printer.Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Shostak said the FIU museum would make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.11.The main purpose of this passage is to give information about_____________.A. famous museums throughout the worldB. an electronic art museum in Miami, U.S.A.C. art exhibitions in Florida International UniversityD. latest development of computer art12.To see the art in FIU museum, your special needs include_____________.A. floppy discsB. a computer and a printerC. pictures and drawings on paperD. a computer connected to the museum by a telephone line13.What are stored in this museum?A. Paintings drawn by means of the computer.B. Different styles of paintings.C. Old paintings.D. Drawings done by art students of FIU.14.The museum was started when___________.A. Robert Shostak wanted to do something for computer scientistsB. Robert Shostak wanted to help computer artistsC. art students needed better places to show their worksD. computer scientists wanted to do something about art15.The word “audience” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.A. art studentsB. computer ownersC. exhibits in the museumD. those who will enjoy artPassage 2“Cool” is a word with many meanings. Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the word has had many different meanings.“Cool” ca n be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.” You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer.We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new” or “surprising”. Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.16.We know that the word “cool” has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning17.In the passage, the word “express” means “________”.A. seeB. showC. knowD. feel18.If you are _______ something, you may say, “It’s cool.”A. interested inB. angry aboutC. afraid ofD. unhappy with19.The writer takes an example to show he is ________ the way the word is used.A. pleased withB. strange toC. worried aboutD. careful with20.In the passage, the writer suggests(暗示)that the word “cool”________.A. cannot be replaced by other wordsB. usually means something interestingC. can make your life colourfulD. shouldn’t be overusedPassage 3For any Englishman, t here can never be any discussion as to who is the world’s greatest dramatist (剧作家). Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the work of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s writings that have become part of the common property of the English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we used, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of Hamlet and complained that it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations.Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, makes full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal use of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand.There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare’s day.21.English people ____________.A. have never dis cussed who is the world’s greatest dramatistB. never discuss any issue concerning the world’s greatest dramatistC. are sure who is the world’s greatest dramatistD. do not care who is the world’s greatest poet and dramatist22.Every Englishman knows ______________.A. more or less about ShakespeareB. Shakespeare, but only slightlyC. all Shakespeare’s writingsD. only the name of the greatest English writer23.Which of the following is true?A. We use all the words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’s wr itings.B. Shakespeare’s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origins of the words they use.D. All the words people use are taken from the writings of Shakespeare.24.What does the word “proverb” mean?A. Familiar sayings.B. Shakespeare’s plays.C. Complaints.D. Actors and actresses.25.Why is it worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English?A. English word s have changed a lot since Shakespeare’s time.B. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of the English language.C. English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare’s time.D. Beginners may have difficulty learning some aspects of English usage.第三部分:词汇和结构(共25小题;每小题1分,满分25分)26.I didn’t hear the phone.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Passage 1.When your parents advise you to "get an education" in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.Get a high school diploma, at least. Without that, you will be occupationally dead unless your name happens to be George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully dropout in grade school.Get a college degree, if possible. With a B.A., you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you go for a master's degree, make sure it is an M.B.A, and is famous law of diminishing returns begins to take effect.Do you know, for instance, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24000, while the full professors managed to earn just $23030. A Ph.D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degree can quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph.D.s unemloyed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages or-worst of all-in philosophy, you run the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands. Thousands of Ph.D.s are selling shoes, driving cars, waiting on table, and endlessly filling out applications month after month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the janitor earns. You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.51.According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who _____.A)will not be a disgrace to society B)will become loyal citizensC)can take care of themselves D)can meet the nation's demands as a source of manpower52.Many Ph.D.s are out of job because _____.A)they are improperly educated B)they are of little commercial value to their societyC)there are fewer jobs in high schools D)they prefer easier jobs that make more money53.The nation is only interested in people _____.A)with diplomas B)who specialize in physics and chemistryC)who are valuable to the gross national product D)both A and C54.Which of the following is not true?A)Bernard Shaw didn't finish high schools, nor did Edison.B)One must think carefully before pursuing a master degree.C)The higher your education level, the more money you will earn.D)If you are too well-educated, you'll be overeducated for society's demands.55.The writer sees education as _____.A)a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a country's demands fortechnical workersB)a way to broaden one's horizonsC)more important than finding a jobD)an opportunity that everyone should havePart IV Translation ( 英译汉) 15% 请将以下句子翻译成中文:1、The lecturer at the conference turned out to be the daughter of an old friend of mine.大会报告人原来是我的一位老朋友的女儿。
