For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a singleline through the center.Passage OneAre some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reached those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.16.The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him __________.A.at birthB.through educationC.both at birth and through educationD.more at birth than through education17.If a child is born with low intelligence he can __________.A.never become a geniusB.still become a genius if he should be given special educationC.exceed his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsD.not exceed his intelligence limits even in rich surroundings18.In the second paragraph “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population--”means if we __________.A.pick any two personsB.take out two different personsC.choose two persons who are relativeD.choose two persons with different intelligence19.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows __________.A.the importance of their intelligenceB.the role of environment on intelligenceC.the importance of their positionD.the part that birth places20.The best title of this passage can be __________.A.SurroundingsB.IntelligenceC.Dependence on EnvironmentD.Effect of EducationPassage TwoBefore the grass has thickened on the roadside verges and leaves have started growing on the trees it is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become. The pavements are stained with chewing gum that has been spat out and the gutters are full of discarded fast food cartons. Years ago I remember travelling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags, discarded bottles and soiled nappies at the edge of every road. Nowadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gone wrong?The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lot longer than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in the undergrowth for years;a semi-permanent reminder of what a tatty little country we have now.Firstly, it is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These will take anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot. However, it is not as if there is no solution to this. A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister, Michael Meacher attempted tointroduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastics industry protested, of course. However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before it could draw breath, leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined effort, both individual and collective, before it is too late. The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a country that looks like a vast municipal rubbish tip. We may well be at the tipping point. Yet we know that people respond to their environment. If things around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surrounded by squalor, they behave squalidly. Now, much of Britain looks pretty squalid. What will it look like in five years?21.The writer says that it is a good time to see Britain before the trees have leaves becauseA. Britain looks perfect.B. you can see Britain at its dirtiest.C. you can see how dirty Britain is now.D. the grass has thickened on the verges.22.According to the writer, things used to be___________.A. worse abroad.B. the same abroad.C. better abroad.D. worse, but now things are better abroad.23.To solve the problem of plastic bags, Michael Meacher__________A. followed the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.B. tried to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.C. made no attempt to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.D. had problems with the plastics industry who weren't bothered about the tax.24.As to what can be done, the writer thinks __________A. it is too late to do anything.B. we are at the tipping point.C. there is more than one way to solve the problem.D. we need to work together to solve the problem.25.The writer thinks that__________A. people are squalid.B. people behave according to what they see around them.C. people are clean and tidy.D. people are like a vast municipal rubbish tip.Passage ThreeThe men who planned and constructed the first American railroads were men of great vision. They predicted that their “iron horses” would open vast expanses of land to farming and industry. They knew that towns would spring up along the new railroads. Yet few of these pioneers could have guessed that American railroads would establish the system of time used throughout most ofthe world today.Until the 1880s, all time in the United States was sun time. Farmers set their clocks to noon when the sun appeared to be overhead. In towns, people set their clocks by a courthouse clock or factory whistles. One town’s time was often different from the time in a neighboring town.As the new railroads expanded, large numbers of people began to travel. But the railroads were unable to print accurate timetables when most towns along their tracks have their clocks set differently. There was need for a change, and the railroads led in planning it.In 1883, railroads in the United States and Canada adopted standard time, a system which divided the continent into four time zones. Within each zone, all railroad clocks were set to an identical time. When it was noon in the Eastern Zone, it was nine o’clock in the Pacific Zone. Railroad time signals were sent out by the newly-invented telegraph.Standard time quickly spread. Traveling businessmen set their watches to correspond to the railroad clocks. Factories and schools followed the railroad’s lead. Soon, nearly everyone in the United States and Canada was using the four-zone time system – standard time.Today, nearly all the world keeps standard time according to an international system of twenty-four time zones.26.Implied but not directly stated: ___________.A.Farmers set their clocks according to the factory whistlesB.The correct time was not too important before the 1800sC.Only people who traveled on trains ever knew timeD. A standard system was set up by the pioneers27.On the whole, the article tells about __________.A.pioneers who rode on “iron horses”rge numbers of people who traveledC.the establishment of standard timeD.the accurate timetable in the United States28.Which statement does this article lead you to believe?A.Accurate timetelling is important in many industries.B.Accurate time is important only in the United States.C.Accurate time is owned by the men who built railroads.D.Accurate time is owned by pioneers.29.Why weren’t railroads able to print accurate timetables?A.Towns along the tracks set their clocks differently.B.No one was able to read timetables that were accurate.C.Farmers preferred to read the sun instead of timetables.D.Railroad workers had no watches.30.What does the word “identical” mean?A.differentB.difficultC.similarPassage FourUntil recently, women in advertisements were one of three things – an apron, a glamorous dress or a frown. Although that is now changing, many women still feel angry enough to deface offending advertisements with stickers protesting. “This ad degrades women.” Why does this sort of advertising exist? How can advertisers and ad agencies produce, sometimes, after months of research, advertisements that offend the consumer?The advertising Standards Authority (the body which deals with complaint about print media) is carrying out research into how women feel about the way they are portrayed in advertisements. Its conclusions are likely to be what the advertising industry already knows; although women are often irritated by the way they are seen in ads, few feel strongly enough to complain.Women are not only the victims of poor and boring stereotypes – in many TV commercials men are seen neither as useless, childish oafs who are unable to perform the simplest household tasks, or as in considerate boors, permanently on the lookout for an escape to the pub. But it is women who seem to bear the impact of the industry’s apparent inability to put people into an authentic present-day context.Yet according to Emma Bennett, executive creative director of a London advertising agency, women are not infuriated by stereotypes and sexist advertising. It tends to wash over them. They are not militant or angry – they just find it annoying or tiresome. They reluctantly accept outdated stereotypes, but heave a sigh of relief when an advertisement really gets it right.She says that it is not advertising’s use of the housewife role that bothers women, but the way in which it’s handled. “Researchers have often asked the wrong questions. The most important thing is the advertisement’s tone of voice. Women hate being patronized, flattered or given desperately down-to-earth commonsense advice.”In the end, the responsibility for good advertising must be shared between the advertiser, the advertising agency and the consumer. Advertising does not set trends but it reflects them. It is up to the consumers to tell advertisers where they fail, and until people on the receiving end take the business seriously and make their feelings known, the process of change will remain laboriously slow.31.Despite recent changes in attitudes, some advertisements still fail to __________.A.change women’s opinions of themselvesB.show any understanding of people’s feelingsC.persuade the public to buy certain productsD.meet the needs of the advertising products32.According to the writer, the commonest fault of present-day advertising is to __________.A.condemn the role of the housewifeB.ignore protests about advertisementC.present a misleading image of womenD.meet the needs of the advertising industry33.Research suggests that the reaction of women towards misrepresentation by advertisements is__________.B.hostilityC.consentD.unbelief34.Emma Bennett suggests that advertisement ought to __________.A.give further emphasis on practicee male images instead of female onesC.change their style rather than their contentD.pay more compliments to women than before35.Ultimately the advertising industry should __________.A.take its job more earnestlyB.do more pioneering workC.take notice of the public opinionD.concentrate on the products advertisedPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试模拟试题(5)I.Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. 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 with a single line through the center.Passage 1Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educated children only for the aim of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life. Life is varied; so is education.In some countries with advanced industries, they have free education for all. Under this system, people, no matter rich or poor, clever or foolish, have a chance to be educated at universities or colleges. By free education for all they are expected to be able to solve all the problems of a society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough. We find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degree than there are jobs for them to fill. As a result, they refuse to do what they think is “low” work. In fact, to work with one’s hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in suchcountries.But, is the work of a completely uneducated farmer as important as that of a professor? We can live without education, but we should die if none of us grew crops. On the other hand, if all the farmers were completely uneducated, their production would remain low. As the population grows larger and larger in the modern world, we would die if we did not have enough food.1.What does the author mean to tell us in this article?A.The importance of free education for all in our society.B.Everyone should be educated so as to do various jobs.C.The advantages and disadvantages of free education.cation should fit people to varied life.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Not everyone needs to be educated to do his job well.B.Free education for all has more disadvantages than advantages forthe people and society.C.A proper education system is more important than education itself.cation is so important that people can’t live without it.3.Which is NOT the result of free education?A.The more degrees people get, the fewer jobs they can find.B.People with degrees often consider themselves superior to othersdoing manual work.C.People with better education often refuse to do physical work.D.Some people with degrees can’t find jobs they want.4.What does the expression “low work” mean in the passage?A. work with low payB. work that is less attractiveC. work that needs manual laborD. work with less importance5.What can be inferred from the passage?A.The purpose of education is to make people intelligent citizens.B.Those who choose a job according to his ability can contribute tothe society.C.The system of free education for all doesn’t work in advancedcountries.D.Uneducated farmer are as important as professors in modernsociety.Passage 2The science of meteorology(气象学) is concerned with the study of the structure, state, and behavior of the atmosphere. The subject may be approached from any vantage(优势) point. Different views must be combined to give perspective to the whole picture.One may consider the condition of the atmosphere at a given moment and attempt to predict changes from that condition over a period of a fewhours to a few days ahead. This approach is covered by the branch of the science called synoptic (概要的) meteorology.Synoptic meteorology is the scientific basis of the technique of weather forecasting by means of the preparation and analysis of weather maps and meteorological diagrams. In serving the needs of shipping, aviation(航空), agriculture, industry, and professional forecast advice, great benefits are obtained in the form of the saving of human lives and property and in economic advantages of various kinds. One important purpose of the science of meteorology is constantly to make great efforts, through study and research, to increase our knowledge of the atmosphere with the aim of improving the accuracy of weather forecasts.The tools needed to advance our knowledge in this way are disciplines of mathematics and physics applied to solve meteorological problems. The use of these tools forms that branch of the science called dynamic (动力的) meteorology.6.Which of the following could be the best title for the passage?A.Limitation of Meteorological ForecastingB.New Advances in Synoptic MeteorologyC.Approaches to the Science of MeteorologyD.The Basic of Dynamic Meteorology7.The predictions of synoptic meteorologists are directly based on the_______.A.application of the physical scienceB.preparation and study of weather mapsC.anticipated needs of industryD.observations of commercial airline pilots8.The author implies that increased accuracy in weather forecasting willlead to _______.A.more funds given to meteorological researchB.greater protection of human lifeC.a higher number of professional forecastersD.less-specialized forms of synoptic meteorology9.Which of the following statements best describes the organization ofthe third paragraph of the passage?A.A scientific theory is explained.B.Two contrasting views of a problem are presented.C.Recent scientific advancements are outlined in order ofimportance.D.A problem is examined and possible solutions are given.10.In the last sentence of the passage the phrase “the tool”refer to________.A. weather forecastB. meteorological problemsC. mathematics and physicsD. economic advantagesPassage 3Imagine one day reading that you had been a subject in a risky science experiment without knowing it. At school, you had been fed cereal (谷类食物) laced with radioactive chemicals so scientists could learn more about the digestive system. Because the food was radioactive, scientists could easily trace its path through the body.Scientists now know that exposure to large amount of radiation can cause cancer, a group of diseases in which bodily cells grow wildly out of control. Some people who were part of the radiation studies later developed cancer and blamed the radiation for causing the cancer. Others are worried the radiation will some day make them sick.Some doctors say that, in many cases, such fears are unjustified because the radiation doses（剂量）used in the experiments were too small to cause harm. They also say that since dangers of radiation were less well understood then than they are now, even researchers who used high doses of radiation didn’t do anything wrong.Some critics claim that no excuse is acceptable for not informing subjects about the nature of an experiment and giving them a chance to refuse to participate.

An adult giraffe's head is about six feet above its heart. This means that to 67 enough blood up to the brain the circulatory 68 must be strong enough to keep the blood at very high pressure.Biologists have known for some time that giraffes solve this problem by having 69 high blood pressure, about 70 that of human beings. But an international team of biologists began to 71 about this. If giraffes have such high blood pressure, they should have a 72 problem with swelling in their legs and feet. Why don't giraffes have swollen feet?Giraffes should have 73 problem, too. Every time they bend heads 74 to drink, the blood should 75 to their heads and have a hard time 76 back up (when the head is down) to the heart. How come giraffes don't black out when they drink?The answer to the 77 feet problem, the researchers found, is that giraffes have 78 the researchers call a "natural anti-gravity suit". It 79 out that the skin and other 80 in their legs and feet are 81 stiffer and tougher than those of other 82 . As a result, the blood vessels in the leg cannot swell.Therefore, the blood has nowhere to go but back to the heart. What about blood rushing to the head 83 the giraffe bends down to drink? The researchers found that the giraffe's jugular vein, which 84 blood from the head back to the heart, has lots of one-way valves in it. In the giraffe's neck, there are lots of muscles that flex and relax repeatedly as the animal moves its head and sucks 85 drinking water. By squeezing the valved jugular vein, they 86 blood moving back to the heart even while the animal is drinking.一个成年长颈鹿的头以上的心脏大约六英尺。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a singleline through the center.Passage OneAre some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reached those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.16.The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him __________.A.at birthB.through educationC.both at birth and through educationD.more at birth than through education17.If a child is born with low intelligence he can __________.A.never become a geniusB.still become a genius if he should be given special educationC.exceed his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsD.not exceed his intelligence limits even in rich surroundings18.In the second paragraph “if we take two unrelated people at random from the population--”means if we __________.A.pick any two personsB.take out two different personsC.choose two persons who are relativeD.choose two persons with different intelligence19.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows __________.A.the importance of their intelligenceB.the role of environment on intelligenceC.the importance of their positionD.the part that birth places20.The best title of this passage can be __________.A.SurroundingsB.IntelligenceC.Dependence on EnvironmentD.Effect of EducationPassage TwoBefore the grass has thickened on the roadside verges and leaves have started growing on the trees it is a perfect time to look around and see just how dirty Britain has become. The pavements are stained with chewing gum that has been spat out and the gutters are full of discarded fast food cartons. Years ago I remember travelling abroad and being saddened by the plastic bags, discarded bottles and soiled nappies at the edge of every road. Nowadays, Britain seems to look at least as bad. What has gone wrong?The problem is that the rubbish created by our increasingly mobile lives lasts a lot longer than before. If it is not cleared up and properly thrown away, it stays in the undergrowth for years;a semi-permanent reminder of what a tatty little country we have now.Firstly, it is estimated that 10 billion plastic bags have been given to shoppers. These will take anything from 100 to 1,000 years to rot. However, it is not as if there is no solution to this. A few years ago, the Irish government introduced a tax on non-recyclable carrier bags and in three months reduced their use by 90%. When he was a minister, Michael Meacher attempted to introduce a similar arrangement in Britain. The plastics industry protested, of course. However, they need not have bothered; the idea was killed before it could draw breath, leaving supermarkets free to give away plastic bags.What is clearly necessary right now is some sort of combined effort, both individual and collective, before it is too late. The alternative is to continue sliding downhill until we have a country that looks like a vast municipal rubbish tip. We may well be at the tipping point. Yet we know that people respond to their environment. If things around them are clean and tidy, people behave cleanly and tidily. If they are surrounded by squalor, they behave squalidly. Now, much of Britain looks pretty squalid. What will it look like in five years?21.The writer says that it is a good time to see Britain before the trees have leaves becauseA. Britain looks perfect.B. you can see Britain at its dirtiest.C. you can see how dirty Britain is now.D. the grass has thickened on the verges.22.According to the writer, things used to be___________.A. worse abroad.B. the same abroad.C. better abroad.D. worse, but now things are better abroad.23.To solve the problem of plastic bags, Michael Meacher__________A. followed the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.B. tried to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.C. made no attempt to follow the Irish example with a tax on plastic bags.D. had problems with the plastics industry who weren't bothered about the tax.24.As to what can be done, the writer thinks __________A. it is too late to do anything.B. we are at the tipping point.C. there is more than one way to solve the problem.D. we need to work together to solve the problem.25.The writer thinks that__________A. people are squalid.B. people behave according to what they see around them.C. people are clean and tidy.D. people are like a vast municipal rubbish tip.Passage ThreeThe men who planned and constructed the first American railroads were men of great vision. They predicted that their “iron horses” would open vast expanses of land to farming and industry. They knew that towns would spring up along the new railroads. Yet few of these pioneers could have guessed that American railroads would establish the system of time used throughout most of the world today.Until the 1880s, all time in the United States was sun time. Farmers set their clocks to noon when the sun appeared to be overhead. In towns, people set their clocks by a courthouse clock orfactory whistles. One town’s time was often different from the time in a neighboring town.As the new railroads expanded, large numbers of people began to travel. But the railroads were unable to print accurate timetables when most towns along their tracks have their clocks set differently. There was need for a change, and the railroads led in planning it.In 1883, railroads in the United States and Canada adopted standard time, a system which divided the continent into four time zones. Within each zone, all railroad clocks were set to an identical time. When it was noon in the Eastern Zone, it was nine o’clock in the Pacific Zone. Railroad time signals were sent out by the newly-invented telegraph.Standard time quickly spread. Traveling businessmen set their watches to correspond to the railroad clocks. Factories and schools followed the railroad’s lead. Soon, nearly everyone in the United States and Canada was using the four-zone time system – standard time.Today, nearly all the world keeps standard time according to an international system of twenty-four time zones.26.Implied but not directly stated: ___________.A.Farmers set their clocks according to the factory whistlesB.The correct time was not too important before the 1800sC.Only people who traveled on trains ever knew timeD. A standard system was set up by the pioneers27.On the whole, the article tells about __________.A.pioneers who rode on “iron horses”rge numbers of people who traveledC.the establishment of standard timeD.the accurate timetable in the United States28.Which statement does this article lead you to believe?A.Accurate timetelling is important in many industries.B.Accurate time is important only in the United States.C.Accurate time is owned by the men who built railroads.D.Accurate time is owned by pioneers.29.Why weren’t railroads able to print accurate timetables?A.Towns along the tracks set their clocks differently.B.No one was able to read timetables that were accurate.C.Farmers preferred to read the sun instead of timetables.D.Railroad workers had no watches.30.What does the word “identical” mean?A.differentB.difficultC.similarD.understandablePassage FourUntil recently, women in advertisements were one of three things – an apron, a glamorous dress or a frown. Although that is now changing, many women still feel angry enough to deface offending advertisements with stickers protesting. “This ad degrades women.” Why does this sort of advertising exist? How can advertisers and ad agencies produce, sometimes, after months of research, advertisements that offend the consumer?The advertising Standards Authority (the body which deals with complaint about print media) is carrying out research into how women feel about the way they are portrayed in advertisements. Its conclusions are likely to be what the advertising industry already knows; although women are often irritated by the way they are seen in ads, few feel strongly enough to complain.Women are not only the victims of poor and boring stereotypes – in many TV commercials men are seen neither as useless, childish oafs who are unable to perform the simplest household tasks, or as in considerate boors, permanently on the lookout for an escape to the pub. But it is women who seem to bear the impact of the industry’s apparent inability to put people into an authentic present-day context.Yet according to Emma Bennett, executive creative director of a London advertising agency, women are not infuriated by stereotypes and sexist advertising. It tends to wash over them. They are not militant or angry – they just find it annoying or tiresome. They reluctantly accept outdated stereotypes, but heave a sigh of relief when an advertisement really gets it right.She says that it is not advertising’s use of the housewife role that bothers women, but the way in which it’s handled. “Researchers have often asked the wrong questions. The most important thing is the advertisement’s tone of voice. Women hate being patronized, flattered or given desperately down-to-earth commonsense advice.”In the end, the responsibility for good advertising must be shared between the advertiser, the advertising agency and the consumer. Advertising does not set trends but it reflects them. It is up to the consumers to tell advertisers where they fail, and until people on the receiving end take the business seriously and make their feelings known, the process of change will remain laboriously slow.31.Despite recent changes in attitudes, some advertisements still fail to __________.A.change women’s opinions of themselvesB.show any understanding of people’s feelingsC.persuade the public to buy certain productsD.meet the needs of the advertising products32.According to the writer, the commonest fault of present-day advertising is to __________.A.condemn the role of the housewifeB.ignore protests about advertisementC.present a misleading image of womenD.meet the needs of the advertising industry33.Research suggests that the reaction of women towards misrepresentation by advertisements is__________.A.indifferenceB.hostilityC.consentD.unbelief34.Emma Bennett suggests that advertisement ought to __________.A.give further emphasis on practicee male images instead of female onesC.change their style rather than their contentD.pay more compliments to women than before35.Ultimately the advertising industry should __________.A.take its job more earnestlyB.do more pioneering workC.take notice of the public opinionD.concentrate on the products advertisedPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

The California State Railroad Museum.BHow Coney Island got its name remains a mystery, though people have found explanations from almost every stage of its history.A written record came out in 1924. It says that the island was once the home of the Konoh people.The name Konoh was mispronounced and finally became “Coney.”Another explanation finds the name connected with the arrival of Henry Hudson in New York Harbor in 1609. According to it, John Coleman, Hudson’s right-hand man, was killed by Indians. To honor him, people named the island after him.The Dutch settled in Manhattan in 1624, and they became to Coney Island soon afterwards. Since the Dutch word for rabbit (兔子) was konijn and the island had a large population of wild rabbits, many people have supposed this fact to have led to the name. There was a different story about the Dutch word. The Dutch fought the Indians there and were believed to have said that their enemies “ran like rabbits.”According to an article in a magazine, an Irish captain named Peter O’ Connor sailed between New York and Ireland in the late 1700s, and he named Coney Island after an island that was close to his home in Ireland and of the same size as theAmerican island.Unfortunately, there is little evidence (证据) that the Dutch, or the English after them, used any word “Coney” for several centuries. There is a lot of evidence, however, that the name Coney Island came into use in the first half the 19th century, after a ferry (渡船) service to carry passengers from the island to the mainland.（）4. According to the passenger, the name Coney__________.A.was mispronounced by the Konoh ColemanB. was given by a man called John Colemanes from an island close to the English coastD.is close in pronunciation to a Dutch word（）5. It is said that John Coleman__________.ed his right hand better than the left oneB.was an important assistant of Henry HudsonC.killed many Indians in battles in 1609D.was the first man to reach the island（）6. The writer believes that the name Coney Island most probably__________.A. has a history of less than 200 yearsB. came into use several hundred years agoC.was used first by the English, not the DutchD.is related to the sail from New York to Ireland（）7. From the passage we know that the word mystery means something .A. that history books keep a record ofB. people have found explanations forC. that has not been known enough aboutD. people have not yet thought about补全对话五提示：一位女士在商店为儿子挑选T 恤衫，大小和式样都合适，也有喜欢的颜色，但价格太高。

学位英语模拟试卷(五套)
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试模拟题(1)(考试时间120分钟)Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three 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.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:When Christopher Columbus "discovered" the New World in 1492, he thought he had reached the continent of Asia and had landed in India. He called the people he found in this new land "Indians"—the ancestors of the American.Indians had come from Asia thousands of years before Columbus saw them.Thousands of years ago, the Earth was in an ice age. (76)People who lived in northeastern Asia found their homeland growing colder. Huge sheets of ice were spreading over the land, and animals people hunted for food were being forced away. The people also had to move, to stay near the animals. Some groups of people crossed Bering Strait from Asia to North Pacific Ocean, which separates northeastern Asia from Alaska. (77)These people slowly traveled east and south, searching for areas where hunting was good. Their children and all those who came after them continued to spread throughout the New World.The Indians do not have yellowish skin that many Asian people have. Their skin is reddish brown. But like the people of Japan and other countries of Asia, Indians usually have high cheekbones and straight black hair.1. In 1492, Christopher Columbus __A. found American Indians in AsiaB. thought he had reached IndiaC. landed in IndiaD. reached the continent of Asia2. Thousands of years ago people were forced to leave their homeland because __A. the earth was in an ice ageB. they found their homeland getting colderC. huge sheets of ice were spreading over the landD. they had to stay near the animals they hunted for food3. Bering Strait is __A. part of the largest ocean in the worldB. in the southern part of the Pacific OceanC. a river which separates Asia and North AmericaD. a river which separates northeastern Asia and Alaska4. According to the writer, the New World means __A. AsiaB. AlaskaC. North AmericaD. the land on the both sides of the Bering Strait5. Which of the following statements is not correct?A. The Indians have yellowish skinB. The Indians have straight black hairC. People of Japan have high cheekbonesD. The Indians have reddish brown skin Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.What makes one person more intelligent than another? What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old question and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental (done with the mind) exercise is particularly important for young children. (78)Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about.(79)The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive (helpful) things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "You are such a smart child."6. The words "intelligent" and "brilliant" in the first paragraph probably mean __ while "dull" in the second paragraph means __A. bright and splendid.., slow in thinking and understandingB. pretty and handsome.., ordinary-lookingC. great and important.., commonD. hopeful and helpful.., careless7. According to the context we can guess that a genius is __ while an idiot is___.A. a normal person.., a funny personB. a strong person.., a weak personC. a highly intelligent person.., a foolish or weak-minded personD. a famous person.., an ordinary person8. A person __ is more likely to become a genius.A. whose parents are cleverB. often thinking about difficult problemC. often helped by his parents and teachersD. born with a good brain and putting it to active use9. It is better for parents_____________A. to praise and encourage their children more oftenB. to be hard on their childrenC. to leave their children alone with nothing to doD. to give their children as much help as possible10. Which of the following is not true according to the article?A. Parents play an important part in their children's growth.B. The less you use your mind the duller you may become.C. Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.ID. Parents should always encourage their children.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Scientists were embroiled(使…卷入) last week in an international row over genetically modified cotton (GM cotton).A study in China suggested for the first time that the crop was permanently damaging the environment and that insects were building up resistance to it.The study, by the Nanjing institute of Environmental Science, combined the laboratory and field work from four Chinese scientific institutes. The study was done over a several-year period.GM cotton had a gene resistance to the cotton bollworm棉铃虫) and isolated from thebacterium (细菌) named Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt), but the study found that it harms the natural parasitic （寄生的) enemies of the cotton bollworm.It also indicated that populations of pests besides the bollworm had increased in Bt cotton fields and some had replaced the bollworm as the primary pest.However, the leading GM company, the US's Monsanto, which controls more than 80 per cent of the Bt cotton grown worldwide, dismissed the research.It said that the industry has always cited GM cotton as its biggest success, because it can increase yields by up to 60 per cent and reduce the need for pesticides(杀虫剂) by 80 per cent.But, unfortunately for the industry, (80) the scientists also found that the resistance of Bt cotton to bollworm decreased significantly over time.11. Why scientists say no to GM cotton?A. Because the cotton was genetically modified.B. Because the cotton was found to damage the environment.C. Because the cotton harms the bollworm.D. Because Monsanto dismissed the research.12. The underlined word "yields" means________A. plantsB. giving upC. establishmentD. productions13. In Bt cotton fields, some pests replaced the bollworm as the primary pest because __A. their favorite food is Bt cottonB. the bollworms were killed out by the Bt cottonC. both their enemies and the bollworm were all killed by Bt cottonD. people used the pesticides14. Which of the following is NOT the difference between Bt cotton and common cotton?A. Bt cotton is stronger than common cotton.B. Bt cotton yields more than common cotton.C.

His works were received enthusiastically both in England and in the United States. He was, in fact, one of the most successful writers of his time in the country, and at the same time winning the admiration of fellow writers like Scott in Britain and Poe and Hawthorne in the United States. The respect in which he was held partly owing to the man himself, with his warm friendliness, his good sense, his urbanity, his gay spirits, his artistic integrity, his love of both the Old World and the New. Thackeray describedIrving as "a gentleman, who, though himself born in no very high sphere, was most finished, polished, witty; socially the equal of the most refined Europeans." In England he was granted an honorary degree from Oxford—an unusual honor for a citizen of a young, uncultured nation—and he received the medal of the Royal Society of Literature. America made him ambassador to Spain.Irving"s background provides little to explain his literary achievements. A gifted but delicate child, he had little schooling. He studied law, but without zeal, and never did practice seriously. He was immune to his strict Presbyterian home environment, frequenting both social gatherings and the theater.SSS_SINGLE_SEL1.The main point of the first paragraph is that Washington Irving was ______.A America"s first man of lettersB a writer who had great success both in and outside his own countryC a man who was able to move from literature to politicsD a man whose personal charm enabled him to get by withbasically inferior work该题您未回答:х该问题分值: 2答案:B[解析] 推理判断题。

Passage OneGuide to Stockholm University LibraryOur library offers different types of studying places and provides a good studying environment.ZonesThe library is divided into different zones. The upper floor is a quiet zone with over a thousand places for silent reading, and places where you can sit and work with your own computer. The reading places consist mostly of tables and chairs. The ground floor is the zone where you can talk. Here you can find sofas and armchairs for group work.ComputersYou can use your own computer to connect to the wi-fi specially prepared for notebook computers; you can also use library computers, which contain the most commonly used applications, such as Microsoft Office. They are situated in the area known as the Experimental Field on the ground floor.Group study PlacesIf you want to discuss freely without disturbing others, you can book a study room or sit at a table on the ground floor. Some study rooms are for 2－3 people and others can hold up to 6－8 people. All rooms are marked on the library maps.There are 40 group study rooms that must be booked via the website. To book，you need an active University account and a valid University card. You can use a room three hours per day，nine hours at most per week.Storage of Study MaterialThe library has lockers for students to store course literature. When you have obtained at least 40 credits(学分)，you may rent a locker and pay 400 SEK for a year's rental period.Rules to be FollowedMobile phone conversations are not permitted anywhere in the library. Keep your phone on silent as if you were in a lecture and exit the library if you need to receive calls.Please note that food and fruit are forbidden in the library, but you are allowed to have drinks and sweets with you.11．The library's upper floor is mainly for students to ________．A. read in a quiet placeB．have group discussionsC．take comfortable seatsD．get their computers fixed12．Library computers on the ground floor ________．A. helps students with their field experimentsB．Contain software essential for schoolworkC．Are for those who want to access the wifeD．Are mostly used for filling out application forms13．What condition should be met to book a group study room?A.

Following the rules…planning your next move . . . acting as a team member…these are all “game” ideas that you will c ome across throughout your life.Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Such games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dramas that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating (合作) .Many children’s games have a practical side Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones. Which sharpens the hand-eye coordination（协调）needed in hunting.Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition. People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.Sports are also an event that unites people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it—some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.16. Through playing hide-and-seek, children are expected to learn to ________. A. be a team leader B. obey the basic rules C. act asa grown-up D. predict possible danger17. The underlined part in Paragraph 2 most probably means that games can________.A. describe life in an exciting wayB. turn real-life experiences into a playC. make learning life skills more interestingD. change peop le’s views of sporting events18. According to the passage, why is winning Olympic medals so encouraging? A. It inspires people’s deep love for the country. B. It proves the exceptional skills of the winners. C. It helps the country out of natural disasters. D. It earns the winners fame and fortune. 19. Iribarne’s goal of forming the foundation is to _______. A. bring fun to poor kids . B. provide soccer balls for children C. give poor kids a chance for a better life[ks5u. com. D. appeal to soccer players to help poor kids 20．What can be inferred from the passage?A．Gamed benefit people all their lives. B．Sports can get all athletes together. C．People are advised to play games for fun. D．Sports increase a country’s competitiveness.Passage ThreeIn what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early postwar era, there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are faced with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting of computers and are reluctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction.Obviously, there would be no point in investing in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone awry. Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days. Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.21.What is the main purpose of this passage?A. To look back to the early days of computers.B. To explain what technical problems may occur with computers?C. To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.D. To warn against a mentally lazy attitude towards computers.22. According to the passage, initial concerns about computers were that they might_____A. lead us into the post-war eraB. be quite widespreadC. take controlD. take over routine tasks23. The passage recommends those dealing with computers to_____A. be reasonably skeptical abort themB. check all their answersC. substitute them for basic thinkingD. use them for business purposes only24.An “internal computer” is_____A. a computer uses exclusively by one company for its own problemsB. a person’s store of knowledge and the ability to process itC. the most up-to-date in-house computer a company can buyD. a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable25.The passage suggests that the present-day problem with regard to computers is_____A. challengingB. psychologicalC. dramaticD. malfunctioningPassage FourSeveral recent studies have found that being randomly (随机地) assigned to a roommate of another race can lead to increased tolerance but also to a greater likelihood (可能性)of conflict.Recent reports found that lodging with a student of a different race may decrease prejudice and compel students to engage in more ethnically diverse friendships.An Ohio State University study also found that black students living with a white roommate saw higher academic success throughout their college careers. Researchers believe this may be caused by social pressure.In a New York Times article, Sam Boakye – the only black student on his freshman year floor -said that "if you're surrounded by whites, you have something to prove."Researchers also observed problems resulting from pairing interracial students in residences.According to two recent studies, randomly assigned roommates of different races are more likely to experience conflicts so strained thatone roommate will move out.An Indiana University study found that interracial roommates were three times as likely as two white roommates to no longer live together by the end of the semester.Grace Kao, a professor at Penn said she was not surprised by the findings. "This may be the first time that some of these students have interacted, and lived, with someone of a different race," she said.At Penn, students are not asked to indicate race when applying for housing."One of the great things about freshman housing is that, with some exceptions, the process throws you together randomly," said Undergraduate Assembly chairman Alec Webley. "This is the definition of integration.""I've experienced roommate conflicts between interracial students that have both broken down stereotypes and reinforced stereotypes," said one Penn resident advisor (RA). The RA of two years added that while some conflicts "provided more multicultural acceptance and melding (融合)," there were also "jarring cultural confrontations."The RA said that these conflicts have also occurred among roommates of the same race.Kao said she cautions against forming any generalizations based on any one of the studies, noting that more background characteristics ofthe students need to be studied and explained.26. What can we learn from some recent studies?A)C onflicts between students of different races are unavoidable.B)S tudents of different races are prejudiced against each other.C)I nterracial lodging does more harm than good.D)I nterracial lodging may have diverse outcomes.27. What does Sam Boakye's remark mean?A)W hite students tend to look down upon their black peers.B)B lack students can compete with their white peers academically.C)B lack students feel somewhat embarrassed among white peersduring the freshman year.D)Being surrounded by white peers motivates a black student towork harder to succeed.28. What does the Indiana University study show?A)Interracial roommates are more likely to fall out.B)F ew white students like sharing a room with a black peer.C)R oommates of different races just don't get along.D)A ssigning students' lodging randomly is not a good policy.29. What does Alec Webley consider to be the "definition of integration"?A)Students of different races are required to share a room.B)I nterracial lodging is arranged by the school for freshmen.C)L odging is assigned to students of different races withoutexception.D)The school randomly assigns roommates without regard to race.30. What does Grace Kao say about interracial lodging?A. It is unscientific to make generalizations about it without further study.B. Schools should be cautious when making decisions about student lodging.C. Students' racial background should be considered before lodging is assigned.D. Experienced resident advisors should be assigned to handle the problems.Part Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points) Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section .For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B , C and D .Choose the one that best completes the sentence.

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.We all know that it is possible for ordinary people to make their homes on the equator (道), although often they may feel uncomfortably hot there. Millions do it. But as for the North Pole (北极)——we know that it is not only a dangerously cold place, but that people like you and I would find it quite impossible to live there. At the present time only the scientists and explorers can do so, and they use special equipment. (76) Men have been travelling across and around the equator on wheels, on their feet or in ships for thousands of years; but only a few men, with great difficulty and in very recent time, have ever crossed the ice to the North Pole. So it may surprise you to learn that, when traveling by air, it is really safer to fly over the North Pole than over the equator. Of course, it is not true about landings in the polar region, but the weather, if we are flying at a height of 5,000 meters above the Pole is a delight. At 4,000 meters and move above the earth you can always be sure that you will not see a cloud in the sky as far as your eyes can reach. In the tropics (热带), on the other hand, you are not certain to keep clear of bad weather even at such heights as 18,000 or 20,000 meters.Aeroplanes can't climb as high or as quickly in cold air as in warm. Nor can clouds. (77) In practice, this is an advantage to the aeroplane, which is already at a good height when it reaches the polar region and so does not to climb，while at the same time cold air keeps the clouds down low.第16题："Millions do it." in this sentence "do it" refers toA.feeling uncomfortably hot on the equatorB.flying over the North PoleC.flying over the equatorD.making homes on the equator参考答案：D答案解析：事实细节题。

His works were received enthusiastically both in England and in the United States. He was, in fact, one of the most successful writers of his time in the country, and at the same time winning the admiration of fellow writers like Scott in Britain and Poe and Hawthorne in the United States. The respect in which he was held partly owing to the man himself, with his warm friendliness, his good sense, his urbanity, his gay spirits, his artistic integrity, his love of both the Old World and the New. Thackeray described Irving as "a gentleman, who, though himself born in no very high sphere, was most finished, polished, witty; socially the equal of the most refined Europeans." In England he was granted an honorary degree from Oxford—an unusual honor for a citizen of a young, uncultured nation—and he received the medal of the Royal Society of Literature. America made him ambassador to Spain.Irving"s background provides little to explain his literary achievements. A gifted but delicate child, he had little schooling. He studied law, but without zeal, and never did practice seriously. He was immune to his strict Presbyterian home environment, frequenting both social gatherings and the theater.（分数：10.00）(1).The main point of the first paragraph is that Washington Irving was ______.（分数：2.00）A.America"s first man of lettersB.a writer who had great success both in and outside his own country √C.a man who was able to move from literature to politicsD.a man whose personal charm enabled him to get by with basically inferior work解析：[解析] 推理判断题。
