新程专转本2011强化班阅读理解补充资料(李仁杰编审)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Sometimes you‘ll hear people say that you can‘t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you‘ll hear people say that you can‘t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you‘ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we‘re the people of our parents‘ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we are great talents and our uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it‘s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you built a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own mind‘s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be, thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do everyday. Don‘t allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can‘t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you are silly because you aren‘t good at math. Find a tutor. If you think you are weak because you can‘t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you are dull because you don‘t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat your self on the back, you‘ll know you‘re well on your way.1. You need to build a positive self-image when you _______.A. dare to challenge yourselfB. feel it hard to change yourselfC. are unconfident about yourselfD. have a high opinion of yourself2. According to the passage, our self-images________.A. have positive effectsB. are probably untrueC. are often changeableD. have different functions3. How should you change your self-image according to the passage?A. Keep a different image of others.B. Make your life successfulC. Understand your own worldD. Change the way you think4. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare for your successB. How to face challenges in your lifeC. How to build a positive self-imageD. How to develop your good qualities5. Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. ParentsB. AdolescentsC. EducatorsD. People in generalPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as ―honor‖ helps you create this life of good feelings.Here‘s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent and profit from the clerk‘s mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quite sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we don‘t tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk‘s attention causes different things to happen. Immediately, the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier experience. And it is easy to think and act honorably again when we are happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it‘s started, it‘s easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind which is important for our happiness.6. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our ___________.A. self-respectB. financial rewardsC. advertising abilityD. friendly relationship7. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to _____.A. lyingB. stealingC. cheatingD. advertising8. The phrase ―bringing the error to the clerk‘s attention‖ means_______.A. telling the truth to the clerkB. offering advice to the clerkC. asking the clerk to be more attentiveD. reminding the clerk of the charged item9. How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?A. We‘ll be very excitedB. We‘ll feel unfortunateC. We‘ll have a sense of humorD. We‘ll feel sorry for the clerk10. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. How to live truthfullyB. Importance of peacefulnessC. Ways of gaining self-respectD. Happiness through honorablePassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Sesame Street has been called ―the longest street in the world‖. That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of America‘s exports soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969.In the United States more than 6 million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half of the nation‘s pre-school children. Although some educators object to certain elements in the program, parents praise it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned from ―Sesame Street‖ are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships. Tests have shown that children have benefited from watching ―Sesame Street‖. Those who watch five times a week learn more than the occasional viewers. In the United States the program is shown at different times during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.Why has ―Sesame Street‖been so much more successful than other children‘s shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the educational theories of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mothers watch ―Sesame Street‖ along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on ―Sesame Street‖. But the best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.11. Why has Sesame Street been called ―the longest street in the world‖?A. the program has been shown ever since 1969.B. the program became one of America‘s major exports soon after it appeared on TVC. the program is now being watched in most parts of the world.D. the program is made in the longest street in New York.12.

So many children in the United States watch the program because______.A. it uses songs, stories and jokes to give them basic knowledgeB. it is arranged for most children to watch it regularlyC. tests have shown that it is beneficial to themD. both A and B14. Mothers often watch the program along with their children because______A. they enjoy the program as much as their childrenB. they find their children have benefited from watching the programC. they are attracted by some famous adult stars on the showD. they can learn some educational theories from the program15. What is the most important reason for the success of the program according to the author?A. the creators have good educational theories in making the programB. the young viewers find they can learn something from it.C. famous adult stars often appear in the programD. It gets support from the government and private businessPassage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.You will have no difficulty in making contact with the agent. As you enter his office, you will be greeted immediately and politely asked what you are looking for. The Estate Agent‘s negotiator-as he is called-will probably check that you really know your financial position. No harm in that, but you can always tell him that you have confirmed the position with the XYZ Building Society. He will accept that.He will show you the details of a whole range of properties; many of them are not really what you are looking for at all. That does not matter. Far better turn then down than risk missing the right one.The printed details he will give you are called ―particulars‖. Over the years, a whole language has grown up, solely for use in Agent‘s particulars. It is flowery, ornate and, providing you read it carefully and discount the adjectives, it can be very accurate and helpful.Since the passing of the Trades Description Act, any trader trying to sell something has had to be very careful as to what they say about it. Estate Agents have, by now, become very competent at going as far as they dare. For instance, it is quite acceptable to say ―delightfully‖situated. That is an expression of his opinion. You many not agree, but he might like the idea of living next to the gasworks. If, on the other hand, he says that the house has five bedrooms when, in fact, it has only two, that is a misstatement of fact and is an offence. This has made Estate Agents and others for that matter rather more careful.Basically, all that you need to know about a house is : how many bedrooms it has; an indication of their size; whether the house has a garage; whether there is a gardenand whether it is at the back or the front of the house; whether its semi-detached of terraced.16. The Estate Agent‘s negotiator will ________.A. want all details of your financial circumstancesB. want to satisfy himself that you understand the financial implications of buying a house.C. check your financial position with the XYZ Building SocietyD. accept any statement you make about your financial position17. The author believes ________.A. it is better to be given information about too many properties than too fewB. you should only look at details of properties of the kind you have decided to buy.C. the agent will only show you the details of properties you have in mind.D. it doesn‘t matter if you miss a few properties you may be interested in.18. The adjectives in Agent‘s particulars are ______.A. accurateB. helpfulC. both accurateD. safe to ignore19. The Trades Description Act applies to ___________.A. house agents onlyB. most estate agentsC. any traderD. buyer of houses20. The phrase ―going as far as they dare‖ probably means______.A. covering as wide an area as possibleB. selling houses as far from the estate agent‘s housesC. telling lies about properties if nobody is likely to find out about it.D. trying every possible means to make the description of houses sound attractive Passage 5Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to finding a partner, though matchmaking is still the most common way for boys to meet girls.Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American dollars by introducing suitable marriage partners to each other, but partners also plays a role in the process during which young Koreans meet.In Korea, when marriage is regarded as more of a business contract than a sacred thing, the scene of the first meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the main hotels around Seoul.The business of continuing the family lineage(血统) and keeping the bloodlines pure is often too important to be left to romance and chance encounters.Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with her mother, from which her parents can tell if she is interested.For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk shows that she wants them to stay.Sometimes the matchmaking is not always so formal, with the introduction being made byfriends.But whether through friends or families, there is hardly a Korean manor woman in the country who has not gone through this process—sometimes six or seven times.1. The word ―matchmaking‖ in this passage means .A. a very formal ritual (仪式) attended by boys and girlsB. introducing boys and girls to know each other for the purpose of marriageC. producing matches to make a fire or light cigaretteD. arranging games between men and women2. The fact that the first meeting is repeated again and again in coffee shops in the main hotels suggests that .A. Koreans like drinking coffee in coffee shops very muchB. men and women want to meet as many times as possibleC. they are busy with communicating with different peopleD. marriage is seen as a business contract instead of something sacred3. Why does the matchmaking still exist in Korea?A. Because most people want to keep the bloodlines pure and chance encounters romantic.B. Because most people try to avoid romance and keep the bloodlines pure.C. Because most people regard marriage as continuing family lineage and romance.D. Because most people try to break family lineage and bloodlines.4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Almost every man or woman in Korea has to go through the matchmaking.B. From the signal the boy‘s parents know whether their son is interested in the girl or not.C. At young Koreans no longer need matchmaking to keep them find partners.D. Only a girl and a boy will appear in the first meeting.5. The passage is mainly about .A. the practice of matchmaking in KoreaB. the importance of a business contractC. the work of a business matchmakersD. the first meeting between men and women Passage 6In the university Jim was a fast-tracker. He made good grades with little effort, and his classmates thought of him ―most likely to succeed‖. After graduation, he joined a large company and at first did well. However, he switched to several smaller companies where the same pattern developed time and again: well-liked, regarded as a fast-tracker. People wonder why he isn‘t doing better.Then there was Tom who was always regarded as ―average‖ However, he set his goals high, and then found a way to achieve his goal. Today he owns a million-dollar company.Researchers have found that school performance is little related to job competence. Qualities like ―steady and dependable‖ and ―practical and organized‖ are more important.―You don‘t need talent to succeed,‖ insist some expert. ―All you need is a big pot of glue(胶水).You put some on your chair, you sit down, and you stick to every project until you‘ve done the best you can do.‖ Average achievers stay glued to their chairs and postpone pleasure so they canreceive future benefits. Many fast-trackers, on the other hand, expect too much too soon. When rewards don‘t materialize instantly, they may become disappointed and unhappy6.

A proper title for the passage can be ________.A. The Magic of GlueB. The Way to SuccessC. Why Talented People often Succeed QuicklyD. How Average Achievers Do Better than OthersPassage 7From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures n life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in hand we could never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they represent unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, but friends we make in books could never weary us with their company. By turning the pages we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy and encouragement.One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us can travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travelby book we need no bank account to pay for our way, no airship or ocean liner or streamlined train to transport us, no passport to enter the land of our heart‘s desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains or cross the scorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. The beauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture, the marvels of engineering, are all open to the wonder and enjoyment of those who read.11. The main idea of the first paragraph is________.A. pleasure can only be derived from reading good booksB. a good book may distract our attentionC. people can read good books in different waysD. enjoyment and satisfaction can be derived from reading good books12. The main reason that people like their acquaintances in books is________.A. they are like human friends exactlyB. they never bore us in comparisonC. they never hurt our feelingsD. they give human beings friendship, sympathy and encouragement13. We forget our surroundings and even our identity because________.A. the reading environment is very goodB. the book is extremely interesting and attractiveC. we are alone and no one interrupts usD. we are asked to return the book the second day14. Which of the following is NOT true?A. All of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books.B. We can travel by book free of charge to our heart‘s content.C. We should rely on reading to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life.D. Valuable experiences can be obtained from reading good books.15. ―The whole world is ours for the asking‖ implies that________.A. the world is more accessible in books than in realityB. the world is easy to travel around as long as we walkC. the world belongs to us whenever we askD. round-the-world trips can be made by everyonePassage 8Increasingly over the past 10 years, people especially young people have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.Natural foods, for example, include vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soilthat is rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount—but not the quality—of foods grown in commercial farming areas.Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry: There are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables, certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis placed on the eating of whole meal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on ―healthy eating‖ .16. People have become more interested in natural foods because_______.A. they like changing their diet from time to timeB. they want to eat food that is more deliciousC. much of the food they eat is no longer considered to be healthyD. they want to be fashionable17. Soil that is rich in organic matter________.A. has nothing nutritious added to itB. is essential for producing fruit and vegetablesC. contains unused vegetable matterD. has had chemicals and fertilizers added to it18. According to the author, the use of chemicals and fertilizers_______.A. will not necessarily increase the production of foodsB. is a good way to improve the quality of foodsC. promotes the foods both in quality and in quantityD. is no good for health19. Chickens can be called ―natural foods‖ only when_______.A. they are deliciousB. they are fed on food little better than rubbishC. they lay eggs rich in vitamins every dayD. they are allowed to move about and eat freely20. Which of the following is considered good for healthy eating?A. Unrefined flour and vegetables.B. White bread and honey.C. Canned beans and fruits.D. Mass-produced chickens and eggs. Passage 9Questions 11-15 are based on the following passageMoods, say the experts, are emotions that tend to become fixed, influencing one‘s outlookfor hours, days or even weeks,. That‘s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem if you are sad, anxious, angry or simply lonely.Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out. Sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology offers a lot of tranquilizers, antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs. What many people don‘t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug approaches to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as dregs, and have the added benefit of being non-poisonous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don‘t head for the drugstore, try the following approach.Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic exercise seems to be the most efficient cure for a bad mood. ―If you could keep the exercise, you‗d be in high spirits,‖ says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compared favorably to drugstore as a mood-raiser. Physical exertion such as housework, however, does little. The sky is aerobic exercise ---running .cycling , walking , swimming or other repetitive and tamed activities that boost the heart rate , increase circulation and improve the body‘ swimming utilization of oxygen . Do them for at least twenty minutes a session, there or five timeshare a week.11.What is the main subject of the passage?A.how to beat a bad moodB.How to do physical exerciseC.How to talk bad moods outD.How to get involved in aerobic exercise12.It can be inferred from the passage that-----A.the best way to overcome a bad mood is to talk to oneselfB.when one is in a bad mood , he or she may not work very efficientlyC.some drugstore are more effective than physical exerciseD. a person can make a big profit if he is not a good mood13.―Feel out of sorts‖ in the second paragraph could be best replaced by ------A.Put things in orderB. be in a bad moodC. search for tranquilizersD. –need a mood-raiser14. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Doing housework can also help you overcome a bad moodB. Aerobic exercise can make you in high spirit.C. Swimming, walking, or running is an efficient cure for a bad moodD. Taking anti-anxiety drugstore might do harm to people‘s health.15. Which of the following best describes the organization of this passage?A. A procedure is explained and its significance is emphasized.B. A problem is pointed out and solutions are givenC. Two contrasting views of a problem are presentedD. Recent pharmacological advancements are outlined in order of importance.Questions 16-20 are based on the following passageThe average person swallows about half-a-ton of food a year—not counting drink—and though the body is remarkably efficient at extracting just what it needs from this huge mixture , it can only cope up to a point. If you go on eating too much of some things and not enough of others, you‗ll eventually get out of condition and your health will suffer. So thin before you start eating .It may look good. It may taste good. Fine! But how much good is it really doing you?What you eat and the way it affects your body depend very much on the kind of person you are. For one thing, the genes you inherit from your parents can determine how your body metabolism copes with particular foods. The tendency to put on weight rather easily, for example, often runs in a family—which means that they have to take particular care.And your parents may shape your future in another way. The way you are brought up shapes some basic attitudes to food—like whether you have a sweet tooth, nibble between meals, take big mouthfuls or eat chipset with everything. Eating habits, good or bad, tend to get passed on.And then there is your lifestyle. How much you spend on food (time as well as money), how much exercise you get –these can alter the balance between food and fitness.And finally, both your age and your sex may affect this balance. For example, you‘re more likely to put on weight as you get older, especially if you‘re a woman.So, everybody is different and the important thing is to know yourself.16.Before eating something ,we are advised to consider---A.how good it t will taste C. why we want to eat itB.whether we really need it D. if we have eaten too much of it17.We can infer from the passage that----A.in order to keep fit , we should spend as little time and money as possible on foodB.nibbling between meals is a bad habit that will throw our body out of conditionC.if other members of our family get fat quite easily ,we probably will tooD.we can eat as much as we want and leave it to our body to select what it needs18.If we love sweet things , it‘s probably due to ----A.our body‘s needs C. our basic instinctB.our parents‘ influence D. the taste of the food19.According to the passage , which person is most likely to put on weight ?A. A successful young businessman C. A man with a good appetiteB. A. child who is quickly about food D. A woman who has just retired20.What conclusion can we draw from this passage?A.People need a standard to guide their eatingB.Proper eating is the sky to one‘s healthC.Woman should pay more attention to what they eatD.The balance between food and fitness is hard to maintain。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneResearchers have found that REM(rapid eye movement)sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep, lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a person's sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical changes in the body to show that a person has changed fromNREM(non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61. According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?A. OnceB. TwiceC. Four or five timesD. Forty times62. The word “deeper”in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to which of the following?A. HeavierB. LouderC. StrongerD. Happier63. Which of the following shows that a person is NOT dreaming in his sleep?A. His eyes begin to move.B. His breathing becomes faster.C. His heart rate increases.D. His eyes stop moving.64. The subject of this passage is _____.A. why people sleepB. the human need for REM sleepC. the characteristics of REM sleepD. physical changes in the human body65. Which of the following is the best tile of the article?A. REM SleepB. Two Types of SleepC. SleepersD. What Happens to SleepersPassage TwoFoxes 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 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 foxhunting 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.66. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes _____.A. for recreationB. to limit the fox populationC. in the interests of the farmersD. to show off their wealth67. 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.68. 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 scene69. 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 hunting70. 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 richPassage ThreeIf you listen to American music, watch American television or magazines, you will probably agree that the most popular subject of these forms of entertainment is love. Romantic love always finds an audience in the United States. Falling in love, solving the problems of love, and achieving the happy ending—the big wedding are subjects of interest to the adult as well as the teenage public. Millions of Americans celebrates Valentine’s Day with special cards and gifts that announces their love to their mates. Their friends ,their co-workers and their families. Popular songs tell us that “all t he world loves a lover”. A popular saying is “Love conquers all”. Numerous columns in magazines and newspapers offer advice to the lovelorn, those with difficulties of the heart. To most Americans ,romantic love is essential to a happy life.Not only do Americans believe in romantic love but they also believe that it is the best basis for marriage. Despite the high divorce rate in the United States, young men and women continue to marry on the basis of romantic love.Americans consider marriage to private arrangement between the two people involved young Americans feel free to choose their own marriage partners from any social ,economic, or religious backward. The man or woman may have strong ties with parents, brothers, or sisters, but when he or she falls in love, the strongest feelings are supposed to be for the loved one. When an American couple marries, they generally plan to live apart from both sets of parents and build their own independent family structure.71.

They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years,first a theater,then a barbecue(烤肉)restaurant.,then another drive-in. But in their new operation,they offered a new,shortened menu: French fries,hamburgers,and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service,no waiters or waitresses,and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity(一致性),for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food,and they insisted on their cooks’ sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular,particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954,when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营)other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment,even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today McDonald’s is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to orderfifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976,McDonald’s had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its firsttwenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.76.

Cloze (30 points)Directions: For each blank in the following passage, there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. Choose the one that is most suitable and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Scientists have been struggling to find out the reason behind blushing(脸红). Why would human evolve(进化) a 21 that puts us at a social disadvantage by 22 us to reveal that we have cheated or lied.Charles Darwin pointed out that 23 all people of all races blush, animals do not. When it came to explaining the reason, he was 24 a loss. That has not stopped others from trying.One 25 is that blushing started out as a way to show we obey authoritative members of the group. Later, as our social interactions became 26 complex, it became involved with higher, self-conscious 27 such as guilt, shame and embarrassment. This would seem to put individuals ata disadvantage, but blushing might actually make it a person more 28 or socially desirable.29 that women blush more than men, one university researcher suggests that blushing might have evolved as a way for women to 30 their honesty to men so as to win their support in raising children. Some zoologists also think blushing could have emerged as away to foster trust. "If you were to go hunting31 a stone-faced partner, you could never 32 what he wants." he says. Once blushing became 33 with embarrassment, anyone who did not blush might have been at a disadvantage because we are 34 likely to trust someone who appears never to feel 35 about anything.21. A. response B. reply C. reflection D. recall22. A. forbidding B. forcing C. encouraging D. preventing23. A. when B. while C. since D. because24. A.on B. in C. at D. of25.

A. say B. speak C. tell D. talk33. A. united B. related C. contacted D. associated34. A. more B. that C. less D. so35. A. ashamed B. disappointed C. satisfied D. pleasedIV. Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneJune came and the hay(干草) was almost ready for cutting. On Midsummer's Eve, which was a Saturday, Mr. Jones went into Willington and got so drunk at the Red Lion that he did not come back until midday on Sunday. His men had milked the cows in the early morning and then had gone out chatting without bothering to feed the animals. When Mr. Jones got back, he immediately went to sleep on the living-room sofa with the "News of the World" over his face. When evening came, the animals were still not fed. At last, they could stand no longer. One of the cows broke into the door of the storehouse with her horns and all the animals began to help themselves to the grains.It was just then that Mr. Jones woke up. The next moment he and his four men were in the storehouse with whips in their hands, whipping in all directions. This was more than the hungry animals would bear. Together, though nothing of the kind had been planned beforehand, they jumped upon their masters. Mr. Jones and his men suddenly found themselves being stuck with the horns and kicked from all sides. The situation was quite out of their control. They had never seen animals act like this before. This sudden rebellion of the creatures, which they were used to beating and whipping just as they chose, frightened them. After only a moment or two, they gave up trying to defend themselves. A minute later all five of them were in full fright down the road with the animals running after them joyfully.36.The four men did not feed the cows because ______.A. they had not cut the hay yetB. Mr. Jones wasn't at homeC. they did not have time to feed themD. the cows had fed themselves37.The cows broke into the storehouse because ______.A. they did not like their mastersB. Mr. Jones forgot to lock the doorC. they were kept in the cow-house too longD. they were too hungry to wait for the feed38. What did the five men finally do with the cows?A. They chased and drove the cows away.B. They continued beating the cows.C. They gave up defense and ran away.D. They gave in and fed the cows.39. We can learn from the passage that ______.A .the cows often ran out to look for foodB. the cows often had fights with their mastersC. Mr. Jones and his men often beat the cowsD. Mr. Jones and his men often forgot to feed the cowsPassage TwoIt was sunrise on an August morning when the captain and his crew cast their nets some 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. As the net was pulled over, the contents poured out followed by excited cries of "Coins! Coins!" The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fisherman's dream: sunken treasure! And not just any treasure, but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.In 1784, at the end of the American Revolutionary War, a heavily armed ship was bound for the port of New Orleans. On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars. Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans, yet not a single one arrived. With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage, historians can only guess at what happened. Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasure-hungry pirates(海盗). Whatever happened, the secret -- along with a treasure valued near $ 100,000,000 in today's dollars -- was sent to a watery grave some 300 feet below the ocean's surface.Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans. Widely used and accepted as payment in the thirteen colonies, the United States government gave them the status of official legal tender. Unfortunately, even though they were struck in large quantities, not many of them survive today. After the Civil War, the government withdrew them from circulation and they were melted down.Due to the historic discovery of this treasure, GovMint. com is releasing these coins to the public for an amazingly low price. For a limited time, these authentic silver dollars are priced at $49 plus shipping and handling -- a dramatic reduction from the market price of this coin anywhere else worldwide.40. What surprised the fishermen on an August morning?A. Their net contained a big strange-looking fish.B. They found the treasure sunken 210 years ago.C. They found some pieces of a sunken ship in the net.D. Their net suddenly got caught by something deep in the water.41.What happened to the ship heading for New Orleans in 1874?.A. Loaded with too much cargo, it hit on the rocks.B. Robbed by pirates, it cost $100,000,000's worth of goods.C. It disappeared but nobody knew exactly what had happened.D. It was caught in a terrible storm and went down into the ocean.42.What do we know about "Spanish Silver Dollars"?A. Today one coin equals to 49 dollars in the world market.B. They were widely used in America after the Civil War.C. Issued in small amounts, not many of them survive.D. They were officially accepted in the 13 colonies.43.In which section of a magazine would you probably find this article?A. Sports.B. Housing.C. History.D. Fashion.Passage ThreeThe environment affects the way people interact. To examine this conclusion, two researchers "decorate" three rooms. One room was refurnished to look ugly. The second room was intended to look average. The third room was designed to be beautiful. Individuals were asked to sit in one of the three rooms and rate several pictures of people's faces. The results indicated that the environment has a significant effect on the way people rated the faces. Subjects in the beautiful room gave the pictures higher rates than did subjects in the ugly room. In addition, subjects in the ugly room found the task more unpleasant and boring than did subjects assigned to the beautiful room.Color is one environmental factor that can affect your mood and even your ability to concentrate. One researcher concluded that the most pleasant colors, listed in order of preference, were blue, green, purple, red and yellow. The colors listed from most to least arousing were red, orange, yellow, violet, blue and green.Lighting also affects behavior. Elegant restaurants with dim lighting create a mood of intimacy(亲密) that encourages conversation. The bright lights of an office or classroom, on the other hand, arouse and stimulate thinking.Room decoration, color, lighting, and even music and temperature all influence communication with others, but there is no all-purpose environment. The ideal environment depends on the task that will be performed as well as on the needs and expectations of those present. The same environmental factors that encourage lively conversation and dancing at a New Year's Eve party cannot be expected to create a serene climate in which to study for final exams.44.Paragraph 1 shows that subjects in the ugly room tend to be ______.A. less patientB. less considerateC. more enthusiasticD. more confident45.Which color is the most helpful for keeping a good mood?A. GreenB. BlueC. OrangeD. Red46.What effect can dim lights of an eating environment bring about?A. Arousing active thinking.B. Improving work efficiency.C. Creating a tense atmosphere.D. Stimulating talks among people.47.The underlined word "serene" in the last sentence is closest in meaning to ______.A. serious and graveB. calm and peacefulC. pleasant and friendlyD. cold and indifferentPassage FourThere is nothing more possible than a new hip or knee that can put the spring back in your step. Patients receiving joint implants(移植) often are able to resume many of the physical activities they love, even those as vigorous as tennis and hiking. No wonder, then, that joint replacement is growing in popularity.In the United States in 2007, surgeons performed about 806,000 hip and knee implant (the joints most commonly replaced), double the number performed a decade earlier. Though these procedures have become routine, they are not failure free.Implants must sometimes be replaced, said Dr. Henrik Malchau, an orthopedic surgeon (矫形外科医生) at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. A study published in 2007 found that 7 percent of hips implanted in Medicare patients had to be replaced within seven and a half years.The percentage may sound low, but the finding suggests that thousands of hip patients eventually require a second operation, said Dr. Malchau. Those patients must endure additional recoveries, often painful, and increased medical expenses.The failure rate should be lower, many experts agree. Sweden, for instance, has a failure rateestimated to be a third of that in the United States. Sweden also has a national joint replacement registry, a database of information from which surgeons can learn how and why certain procedures go wrong. A registry also helps surgeons learn quickly whether a specific type of implant is particularly problematic. "Every country that has developed a registry has been able to reduce failure rate significantly," said Dr. Daniel Berry, chief of orthopedic surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.A newly formed American Joint Replacement Registry will begin gathering data from hospitals in the next 12 to 18 months. It's good news for those who are considering replacing a knee or hip.48.What is the problem with hip or knee replacements in the U.S.?A.A lots of patients need a second operation.B. Doctors are not well trained to ensure successful operations.C. Demands for hip replacements exceed the number of surgeons.D. Replacement operation is becoming too expensive in U.S. hospitals.49.Why does Sweden have a lower rate of hip implant failure?A. Sweden has more advanced technology.B. Sweden has a patient data collecting system.C. Sweden has a much larger number of patients.D. Swedish doctors are most responsible and skillful.50.The U.S. Is trying to reduce joint replacement failure rate by ______.A. strictly controlling the number of replacement operations.B. asking hospitals to follow up each case for 12-18 months.C. setting up a national joint replacement database.D. sending doctors to be trained in Sweden.51.People who need a new knee or hip would possibly feel ______ about data gathering in the U.S.A. indifferentB. assuredC. puzzledD. hopefulPassage FiveThe Saturday Evening Post "became symbolic of the reading fare of middle-class America". In 1897 Curtis began to revive(重振) the Post on the proposition that a man's chief interest in life is the fight for livelihood -- business. Fiction and articles about romantic business and successful businessmen filled its pages, and products backed by its advertisements directed at the needs anddesires of the business world. The general interest weekly reached new audiences. Its conservative viewpoint and strong admiration for material success appealed to the tastes of the millions who settled in an easy chair with it each Thursday evening. As a more commercial, mass-circulation magazine than The New Yorker, the widely readable Post set out to interpret America to itself.As a national and international institution, The Saturday Evening Post made its mark in the lives of massive numbers of men and women, and served society as a stabilizing influence. Its editorial matter addressed the problems and interests of the readers as never before. Neither highbrow nor lowbrow, the Post set out to interpret average middle-class America, for that was its audience. However, this magazine lost touch with the mood of the American people in the 1930s. The Post's editor Lorimer, opposed Roosevelt and the New Deal and changed his magazine from an organ of entertainment and enlightenment into a weapon of political warfare. He believed that in opposing the New Deal he had spoken for the majority of voters, but the 1936 election proved him wrong. His conservatism extended beyond politics, it dominated the magazine's content and style causing a decline in reputation and authority. The Post met its greatest success when it went beyond the tastes of the masses, challenging its readers to acknowledge the genius of contributors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and William Faulkner. It was later reformed in an effort to fulfill its responsibility to awaken lethargic(昏昏欲睡的) America, however, The Saturday Evening Post seemed to play to conventions while The New Yorker took off to redefine the character of American Humor.52.According to Paragraph 1, who are primarily the readers of the Post?A. Businessmen.B. College students.C. HousewivesD. Politicians.53.What is the earliest time that readers can read the Post every week?A. Monday.B. ThursdayC. SaturdayD. Sunday54.Why did the Post lose much of its audience in the 1930s?A. It changed its original style and was heavily involved in politics.B. Readers couldn't afford a newspaper because of the Depression.C. The new editor was not interested in Roosevelt's politics.D. It failed to absorb sufficient advertisements.55.What makes the Post so commercially successful?A. Presenting American style humor.B. Sticking to the tastes of the middle-class.C. Carrying articles and novels by local writers.D. Staying in close contact with the business world.V. Daily Conversation (15 points)Directions: Pick out the appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.When do you need itB. Do you have anyavailableC. What do you meanD. May I come overtomorrow to take a lookE. Can I leave a messageF.

And ... 59 .Sarah: Sounds good. 60 ?Manager: Sure. See you tomorrow then.VI. Writing (25 points)Directions: For this part ,you are supposed to write an essay in English in 100~120 words based on the following information. Remember to write it clearly.61. 请以低碳生活(a low carbon life)为主题写一篇100-120词的短文,内容包括:·流行低碳生活的背景(如:极端气候、各种灾害、环境污染等);·实施低碳生活的若干方式(如家庭生活、工作学习、外出旅游中的节约行为等);·低碳生活带来的积极影响。

On Midsummer’s Eve, which was a Saturday, Mr. Jones went into Willington and got so drunk at the Red Lion that he did not come backuntil midday on Sunday. His men had milked the cows in the early morning and then had gone outchatting without bothering to feed the animals.

As the net was pulled over, the contents poured out followedby excited cries of “Coins! Coins!” The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fisherman dream sunken treasure! And not just any treasure, but early American silver dollars that had gone down210 years earlier.In 1784, at the end of the American Revolutionary War, a heavily armed ship was bound for theport of New Orleans. On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars. Hundreds of thousands of themwere loaded for the trips to New Orleans, yet not a single one arrived. With no survivors from theill-fated voyage, historians can only guess at what happened. Some say powerful storms took her downwhile others speculate it was treasure-hungry pirates(海盗).Whatever happened, the secret along with awas sent to a watery grave some 300 feet belowtreasure valued near $100,000,000 in today’s dollars –s surface.the ocean’Spanish Sliver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans. Widely used and accepted aspayment in the thirteen colonies, the United States government gave them the status of official legaltender. Unfortunately, even though they were struck in large quantities, not many of them survivetoday. After the Civil War, the government withdrew them from circulation and they were melteddown.Due to the historic discovery of this treasure, is releasing these coins to the public for anamazingly low price.

FashionPassage ThreeThe environment affects the way people interact. To examine this conclusion, two researchers“decorated” three rooms. One room was refurnished to look ugly. The second room was intended tolook average. The third room was designed to be beautiful. Individuals were then asked to sit in one ofthe three rooms and rate several pictures of people’s faces. The results indicated that the environment has a significant effect on the way people rated the faces. Subjects in the beautiful room gave thepictures higher rates than did subjects in the ugly room. In addition, subjects in the ugly room found thetask more unpleasant and boring than did subjects in the beautiful room. Subjects assigned to the uglyroom attempted to leave sooner than did subjects assigned to the beautiful room.Color is one environmental factor that can affect your mood and even your ability to concentrate.One researcher concluded that the most pleasant colors, listed in order of preference, were blue, green,purple, red and yellow. The colors lists from most to least arousing were red, orange, yellow, violet,blue, and green.Lighting also affects behavior. Elegant restaurants with dim lighting create a mood of intimacy (亲密) that encourages conversation. The bright lights of an office or classroom, on the other hand, arouseand stimulate thinking.Room decoration, color, lighting, and even music and temperature all influence communicationwith others, but there is no all-purpose environment. The ideal environment depends on the task thatwill be performed as well as on the needs and expectations of those present. The same environmentalfactors that encourage lively conversation and dancing at a New Year’s Eve party cannot be expected to create a serene climate in which to study for final exams.44.

No wonder, then, that joint replacement is growing inpopularity.In the United States in 2007, surgeons performed about 806,000 hip and knee implants (the jointsmost commonly replaced); double the number performed a decade earlier. Though these procedureshave become routine, they are not failure free.Implants must sometimes be replaced, said Dr. Henrik Malchau, an orthopaedic surgeon(矫形外科医生)at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. A study published in 2007 found that 7 percentof hips implanted in Medicare patients had to be replaced within seven and a half years.The percentage may sound low, but the finding suggests that thousands of hip patients eventuallyrequire a second operation, said Dr. Malchau. Those patients must endure additional recoveries, oftenpainful, and increased medical expenses.The failure rate should be lower, many experts agree. Sweden, for instance, has a failure rateestimated to be a third of that in the United States. Sweden also has a national joint replacementregistry, a database of information from which surgeons can learn how and why certain procedures gowrong. A registry also helps surgeons learn quickly whether a specific type of implant is particularlyproblematic. ‘‘Every country that has developed a registry has been able to reduce failure ratesd Dr. Daniel Berry, chief of orthopaedic surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester,significantly,” saiMinn.A newly formed American Joint Replacement Registry will begin gathering data from hospitals inplacing a knee or hip.the next 12 to 18 months. It’s good news for those who are considering re48. What is the problem with hip or knee replacements in the U.S.?A. A lot of patients need a second operation.B.

Why dose Sweden have a lower rate of hip implant failure?A. Sweden has more advanced technology.B. Sweden has a patient data collecting system.C. Sweden has a much larger number of patients.D. Sweden doctors are more responsible and skilful.50. The U.S. is trying to reduce joint replacement failure rate by______.A. strictly controlling the number of replacement operationsB. asking hospitals to follow up each case for 12-18 monthsC. setting up a national joint replacement databaseD. sending doctors to be trained in Sweden51. People who need a new knee or hip would possibly feel _____about data gathering in the U.S.A. indifferentB. assuredC. puzzledD. hopefulPassage FiveThe Saturday Evening Post“because symbolic of the reading fare of middle-class American”. In1897 Curtis began to revive (重振)the Post on the proposition that a man’s chief interest in life is thefight for livelihood— business. Fiction and articles about romantic business and successfulbusinessmen filled its pages, and products backed by its advertisements directed at the needs anddesires of the business world. The general interest weekly reached new audiences. Its conservativeviewpoint and strong admiration for material success appealed to the tastes of the millions who settledin an easy chair with it each Thursday evening. As a more commercial, mass-circulation magazine thanThe New Yorker, the widely readable Post set out to interpret America to itself.As a national and international institution, The Saturday Evening Post made its mark in the livesof massive numbers of men and women, and served society as a stabilizing influence. Its editorialmatter addressed the problems and interests of the reader as never before. Neither highbrow norlowbrow, the Post set out to interpret average middle-class America, for that was its audience.However, this magazine lost touch with the mood of the American people in the 1930s. The Post’seditor Lorimer, opposed Roosevelt and the New Deal and changed his magazine from an organ ofentertainment and enlightenment into a weapon of political warfare. He believed that in opposing theNew Deal he had spoken for the majority of voters, but the 1936 election proved him wrong. Hisconservatism extended beyond politics, it dominated the magazine’ content and style causing a decline in reputation and authority. The Post met its greatest success when it went beyond the tastes of themasses, challenging its reader to acknowledge the genius of contributors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald andWilliam Faulkner. It was later reformed in an effort to fulfill its responsibility to awaken lethargic (昏昏欲睡的)America, however. The Saturday Evening Post seemed to play to conventions while TheNew Yorker took off to redefine the character of American Humor.52. According to Paragraph 1, who are primarily the readers of the Post?A. Businessmen.B. College students.C. Housewives.D. Politicians.53. What is the earliest time that readers can read the Post every week?A. MondayB. ThursdayC. SaturdayD. Sunday.54. Why did the Post lose much of i ts audience in the 1930’s?A. It changed its original style and was heavily involved in politics.B. Reader couldn’t afford a newspaper because of the Depression.C. The new editor was not interested in Roosevelt’s politics.D. It failed to absorb sufficient advertisements.55. What makes the Post so commercially successful?A. Presenting American style humor.B. Sticking to the tastes of the middle class.C. Carrying articles and novels by local writers.D. Staying in close contact with the business world.Ⅴ.Daily Conversation (15 point)Directions: Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.Sarah: Hello, I ’m calling to rent an apartment you advertised.Manager: Yes.

Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. 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 and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Questions l to 5 are based on the following passage.Everyone loves to eat! People in every country enjoy this activity, There are so many different kinds of food in the world - Chinese food, Italian food, South American food,Indian food, and many others. It's fun to eat and compare, different types of cuisine, Italian food is sometimes very spicy, but South AmericanSome wonderful food comes from the Eastern countries. Chinese food is popular in many parts of the world. Lots of people love Chinese style vegetablesbecause they are so crispy. Because Chinese-style vegetables are usually cooked for a much shorter time, they are crisper than American-style vegetables. In fact, they are probably the crispest cooked vegetables you can find.Some people don't like American-style food. They think it is often less tasty and sometimes less nutritious than food in other countries. Americans spend nearly half their food dollars on meals away from home. They eat more "fast food", such as hamburgers, hot dogs, pizzas, canned and frozen food, for fast food takes a short time to prepare. Often, Americans feel they are too busy to spend a lot of time cooking. It's easier to pick up a pack of fried chicken on the way home from work or take the famlily out for pizzas or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long, hard day.Of course, in some other countries, like France, cooking is still an "art form". Some people believe that French cuisine is the best in the world. Certainly, each person has a different opinion, about which country has the tastiest food. But people in many places agree that French food is the most delicious and the best prepared.1. The main idea of this passage is that____.A.

And not just any cell phone - the iPhone 3G.According to Asiajin, about 550 students and staff members in the School of Sociallnformatics at Tokyo-based university Aoyama Gakuin received the iPhone 3G for free aspart of their study materials.This is the result of a deal that Aoyama Gakuin signed with SoftBank, theThe phone will work as a study tool for students. As it comes with the global positioning system (GPS), the university plans to use it to check student attendance. Dropping classes is a big problem in Japan, where regular attendance is an important factor in determining a student's grade. Students often fake attendance by getting classmates to answer roll calls.Now, with the iPhone 3G, the school plans to keep better tabs on (监控) its students. Students are allowed to use the phone for attendance reporting (but only if they are actually in the classroom, a fact that will be proved by the phone's GPS), lecture podcasting, and online examinations. A student can't answer the roll call using the phone from any location other than the classroom.Students can, of course, still cheat the new system by leaving their phones with fellow classmates, but this is not very likely to happen, as people tend to keep a lot of private information on their phones that they don't want to share with others.As for calling and data plans, the university covers the basic fee. The hardware itself is free, but students will have to pay when they exceed downloading limits.6.

Still others are not avoiding work; strictly speaking, they are simply putting off their work.farm when the apple hit him and he devised the theory of gravity. All of us would like to have someone "lazy" build the car we buy, particularly if that "laziness" were caused by the worker's taking time to check each step of his work and to do his job right.

There are 4 tasks for you to fulfill. Y ou should read this materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome , testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working foradvanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor's degree.Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same question, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers ,resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Generally, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.One type of test is sometimes called an "objective" test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like correct answers to students who have not learned the material properly.51. In the Middle Ages students_________.A.took objective testsB.specialized in one subjectC.were timed by electric clocksD.never wrote exams52. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that_________.A.workers now take examinationB.the population has grownC.there are only written examsD.examinations are now written and timed53. The kind of exams where students must select answers are_________.A.personalB.spokenC.objectiveD.written54. Modern industry must have developed_________.A.before the Middle AgesB.around the 19th centuryC.in Greece or RomeD.machines to take tests55. It may be concluded that testing_________.A.should test only opinionsB.should always be writtenC.has changed since the Middle AgesD.is given only in factoriesTask 2Adam Smith was the first person to see the importance of the division of the labor. He gave us an example of the process by which pins were made in England."One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, and a fifth gives it a head. Just to make the head requires two or three different operations. The work of making pins is divided into about eighteen differentoperations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them.Ten men, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4800 pins a worker. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not have made twenty pins in a day and not even one.There can be no doubt that division of labor is an efficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this, but he also took it for granted that division of labor is itself responsible for economic growth and development and it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But division of labor adds nothing new, it only enables people to produce more of what they already have.56.According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to__________A. take advantage of the physical laborB. introduce the division of labor into EnglandC. understand the effects of the division of laborD. explain the bad causes of the division of labor57.Adam Smith saw that the division of labor__________A. enabled each worker to design pins more quicklyB. increased the possible output per workerC. increased the number of people employed in factoriesD. improved the quality of pins produced58.Adam Smith mentioned the number 4800 in order to__________A. show the advantages of the old labor systemB. stress how powerful the individual worker wasC. show the advantages of the division of laborD. stress the importance of increased production59.According to the writer, Adam Smith's mistake was in believingthat the division of labor__________A. was an efficient way of organizing workB. was an important development in methods of productionC. finally led to economic developmentD. increased the production of existing goods60.According to the writer, which one of the following is NOT true?A. Division of labor can enable fewer people to make more pins.B. Division of labor helps people to produce more of what they already have.C. Division of labor is by no means responsible for economic growth.D. Division of labor is an efficient way of organizing work.Task 3A new poll shows that people believe that computers and the Internet have made life better for Americans, but people also see some dangers in the trend toward computerization.The poll found that the public favors some government protection fromcyber-problems, but in general people are not essentially concerned with issues such as information overload or the never-ending flow of phone calls, faxes and e-mails. A separate survey of children aged 10-17 shows that they have a more positive attitude about computers than adults do, and most have made use of up-to-date technology in their schools.The survey found that enthusiasms for computers and the Internet is found in all income groups, all regions of the country, all races, and most age groups. However, people over 60 and those toward the lower end of the income rank tend to show lower rates of computer ownership and Internet usage. The survey shows that “some kind of gap has been crossed: computers are part of everyday life for most Americans, and the Internet is close behind.”61.The first paragraph shows thatA. the new poll about computers and the Internet is helpfulB. people should explore the dangers of computerizationC. people can not do without computers and the InternetD. computerization has its advantages and disadvantages62.The word “enthusiasm” is closest in meaning toA. great loveB. great hatredC. problemD. advantage63.What are the Americans concerned about according to the poll?A. Age of children using the InternetB. Government protection from the Internet problemsC. Information overloadD. The flow of phone calls, faxes, and e-mails.64. American adults tend to than teenagers.A. care more about information overloadB. like using computers moreC. dislike using computers moreD. face less danger65. We can learn from the passage thatA. all the American children have used the latest technology in schoolsB. computers and the Internet are very popular with AmericansC. Americans tend to place more importance in the Internet usage than computersD. the public in America do not hate the Internet problemsTask 4Directions: After reading it, you should give brief answers below it (numbered 66 through 70).

You are required to read the passages below carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Task 1Directions : After reading the following passage, you will find five questions or unfinished statements ( No.46 to No. 50). For each question or statement there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to make the correct choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Many post-80s couples are complaining that going to the movies, shopping or attending parties have become impossible since their kids were born. That' s the way most parents are living their lives, no weekends of their own, no time to visit friends, not even a chance of promotion in their jobs.Asking help from their parents might be a way out,but problems are that some aging parents are not strong enough to take care of the kids, and that the kids may also become too spoiled by their grandparents.Then, here comes a solution: families with kids can form a small group, and parents of each family can take turns to look after all the kids in this group on weekends. Thus, other parents can have some quiet time and feel free to do something they' ve been planning for a long time. At the same time, the kids can make new friends and won' t be hanging around their parents all day long. This is baby-pooling.46. Many post-80s couples can't go to the movies, shop or attend parties because .A. they have to look after their kidsB. they have to look after their parentsC. they are busy with their workD. they have no money47.

All of the above.50. The passage mainly discusses .A. post-80s couples and their friendsB. post-80s couples and baby-poolingC. post-80s couples and their parentsD. kids and their grandparentsTask 2Directions : This task ( No. 51 to No. 55) is the same as Task l.It is a terrible illustration of man ' s weakness to nature ,and the tsunami(海啸) that struck the Japanese coast in March, 2011 has illustrated the difficulty of fighting against natural disasters, even for a prosperous nation.Totally preventing tsunami-damage is impossible. But there is much that can be done to minimize damage and loss of life. Measures that can be taken include designing solid buildings, and developing early-waming systems, public education programs and evacuation(疏散) strategies. Moreover, the approach of a tsunami is possibly picked up by the sensors of complicated international waming systems. Countries can use radio and television broadcasts as well as loudspeaker networks to warn the public.But an early waming system depends on how far the tsunami strikes, if it' s close by, the warning system is not going to be very effective. When people are faced with an unstoppable force like a tsunami the massive waves created by events like underwater earthquakes, the best course of action for them is to get inland and to the higher ground as quickly as possible.51. The first paragraph tells us that .A. man can easily defeat the natureB. tsunamis take place only in JapanC. man' s ability to cope with natural disasters is limitedD. the tsunami-damage in Japan is not so terrible52. To prevent tsunami-damage, the following measures can be taken EXCEPTA. designing firm buildingsB. developing early-warning systemsC. developing evacuation strategiesD. keeping the public unaware of the seriousness of tsunamis53.

Which of the following statements is correct according to che passage?A. The total prevention of tsunamis is possible.B. Rich countries are less affected by tsunamis than poor countries.C. Approaching tsunamis can possibly be picked up by sensors.D. An early warning system is effective when a tsunami is close by.Task 3Directions : This task( No. 56 to No. 60) the same as Task l.Tuangou , also called team buying or group buying, is a recently developed shopping strategy starting in China. Several people connect over the Internet and agree to contact a seller of a specific product so that they can buy the same item as a group at a lower price. And the sellers benefit by selling many products at once.When people agree on group buying,individual members of the buying group can vouch for (替………担保)a particular seller’s quality to the rest of the group,therefore Tuangou helps of similar phenomena in Euroupe and North America.However,most of the group buying in these places is organized and done not by the team members themselves,but through online go-betweens.56.

What does the word "go-betweens" mean in the last paragraph?A. Online shopping.B. Going from one place to another.C. Traveling between two places.D. Persons or companies that pass messages between sellers and buyersTask 4Directions: This task (No. 61 to No. 65) is the same as Task l.Facial expressions carry meanings that are partly determined by culture. For example, many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do, so teachers in the United States sometimes have trouble knowing whether their Japanese students understand and enjoy their lessons.Another example is the smile. As a common facial expression, it may show affection, convey politeness, or disguise(掩饰) true feelings. But in different cultures. smiles have different meanings. Many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even a suspicious behavior.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places, for American culture a smile is typically an expression of pleasure. Therefore some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don' t smile enough. In Southeast Asian cultures, a smile is frequently used to cover emotional pain or embarrassment. Vietnamese people may tell the sad story of how they had to leave their country but end the story with a smile.61. The best title for this passage is .A. Russian CultureB.American CultureC. Facial FunctionsD.Facial Expressions and Culture62.

专转本英语语法词汇概念测试1.不定式完成体的构成及含义:2.不定式进行体一般用在哪些词语后面:3.现在完成进行时的构成和含义:4.分词完成体的否定形式:5.many a 后面的谓语动词有单数还是复数:6.would rather 后面用什么时态:7.could have done表示什么含义:8.表示过去没有必要做却做了用:9.when的特殊用法:10.not until 的两个主要考点是:11.while作为考点的两个意思是:12.get型被动语态的构成:13.如何表示过去不应该做却做了:14.表示对过去事情肯定推测用:15.lest后面一定要接什么:16.列举接doing的常考动词:17.deny的两个考点:18.involve 的两个考点:19.对将来的虚拟的两种主要构成:20.列举表示“出现”的动词:21.列举表示“以前的”的形容词:22.“我认为”的高分表达:23.“就我所知”的高分表达:24.如何表示“人们普遍认为”:25.表示“第几次做某事”:26.列举表示“雇佣”的词语:27.列举表示“挑剔”的短语:28.列举“上课讲过的几个作为答案项的考点”:29.“有证据表明”翻译:30.列举表示“无论如何”的短语:31.列举表示“绝不”的短语:32.如何表示“要是……该多好啊”:33.分词完成体的被动形式的构成:34.ing分词和ed分词的主要区别:35.now that和in that分别表示什么意思:36.如何表示“竞争的压力”:37.将来完成时的基本构成:38.如何表示“逃避罚款”:39.如何表示“把……归因于”:40.忙于做某事的若干表达:41.举例阐释so …that和such…that的区别:42.remember to do/doing 的区别:43.主谓一致中的“就近原则”举例说明:44.列举表示“由……构成”的短语:45.anything but /nothing but的意思分别是:46.respectful 和respective 分别表示什么意思?47.后面必须接of的动词有哪些:48.extent、extend和expand在意思上的区别:49.表示忍受的词和短语:50.接to的形容词短语有哪些:定语从句考点1.关系代词That也可以指人,如,He is the man whom/ that I saw yesterday. 他就是我昨天见的那个人。
(whom/that在从句中作宾语)2.Whose 也可用来指物,可以同of which互换,如Please pass me the bookwhose (of which) cover is green.请递给我那本绿皮的书。
3.只能用that的情形:* 当先行词是anything, everything, nothing , none等不定代词时,* 或者是由every, any, all, some, no, little, few, much等修饰时等,这时的that常被省略* 还有先行词前有序数词或形容词最高级修饰时,或先行词就是序数词或最高级时.* 以及先行词中既有人又有物时.* 还有句中前面有which时,都只能用that。
4.表示时间“time"一词的定语从句只用when引导,有时不用任何关系代词,当然也不用that引导。
By the time youarrive in London, we will have stayed there for two weeks. I still remember the first time I met her.5.which引导的非限定性定语从句来说明前面整个句子的情况或主句的某一部分。
My house, which I bought last year,has got a lovely garden.我去年买的的那幢房子带着个漂亮的花园。
He seems not to have grasped what I meant, which greatly upsets me. 他似乎没抓住我的意思,这使我心烦。
6. where指地点,在定语从句中做地点状语(1) Shanghai is the city where I was born.(2) The house where I lived ten years ago has been pulled down.7. why指原因,在定语从句中做原因状语(1) Please tell me the reason why you missed the plane.(2) I don’t know the reason why he looks unhappy today.8. 用关系代词,还是关系副词完全取决于从句中的谓语动词。
不及物动词后面无宾语,就必须要求用关系副词或者是介词加关系代词;而及物动词后接宾语,则要求用关系代词。
例如:This is the mountain village where I stayed last year.I'll never forget the days when I worked together with you.(错)This is the mountain village where I visited last year.(错)I will never forget the days when I spent in the countryside.(对)This is the mountain village (which) I visited last year.(对)I'll never forget the days (which) I spent in the countryside.9. that前不能有介词。
某些在从句中充当时间,地点或原因状语的"介词+关系词"结构可以同关系副词when ,where和why 互换。
This is the house in which I lived two years ago./ Do you remember the day on which you joined our club?10. 由as, which 引导的非限定性定语从句,as和which可代整个主句,相当于and this 或and that。
As一般放在句首,which在句中。
As we know, smoking is harmful to one's health. / The sun heats the earth, which is very important to us.11. As 的用法the same… as;such…as 中的as 是一种固定结构, 和……一样……。
I have got into the same trouble as he (has). 当先行词受such, thesame修饰时,常用as(1) I have never heard such a story as he tells.(2) He is not such a fool as he looks.(3) This is the same book as I lost last week.12. 不用that的情况(a) 在引导非限定性定语从句时。
(错)The tree, that is four hundred years old, Is very famous here.(b) 介词后不能用。
We depend on the land from which we get our food.We depend on the land that/which we get our food from.13. 定语从句such…as …与结果状语从句such… that…的区别:as在所引导的定语从句中作主语,宾语;that在结果状语从句中不做成分He has such a good laptop as I want to buy.He has such a good laptop that I want to by one.14. 混淆关系代词与关系副词有的同学一看到先行词是表示时间、地点、原因的名词,就认为一定要用关系副词,其实也不一定。
在此情况下,还要看关系词在定语从句中是用作什么成分,若是用作状语,则用关系副词,若不是用作状语(如用作主语、宾语等)则不能用关系副词,而用关系代词。
比较:This is the factory where I want to work. 这就是我想工作的工厂。
(work为不及物动词where在从句中用作状语)This is the factory that I want to visit. 这就是我想参观的工厂。
(visit为及物动词,that用作visit的宾语)The reason why he can’t come is that he is ill. 他没来的是因为他病了。
(come为不及物动词,why在定语从句中用作状语)15.做定语从句试题时, 大体上要分清以下几点:1.是定语从句还是其他从句( 从句意和句法功能等方面去考虑)。
2.是用关系代词还是关系副词。
关系代词和关系副词的选择主要看关系词在句中的句法功能。
一般说来,关系代词(that,which,who,whom 等)主要用作主语和宾语;关系副词(when,where,why)主要用作状语;作定语时用whose。
3.受定语从句修饰的先行词是指人(who,whom,that) 还是指物(that,which);是作主语(who,that,which)还是作宾语(which,whom,who)等。
4.关系代词可否省略(在通常情况下,只有限制性定语从句中用作宾语的关系代词才能省略)。
5.是限制性定语从句还是非限制性定语从句(关系代词that以及关系副词why等均不能引导非限制性定语从句)。
6.在“介词+which”结构中,介词的正确选择(主要看相关名词和动词的习惯搭配)。

That he likes you is very obvious. 很显然他喜欢你。
