(10 points)In our contemporary culture, the prospect of communicating with— or even looking at — a stranger is virtually unbearable. Everyone around us seems to agree by the way they fiddle with their phones, even without a 1 on subway.It's a sad reality — our desire to avoid interacting with other human beings—because there's 2 to be gained from talking to the stranger standing by you. But you wouldn't know it, 3 into your phone. This universal armor sends the 4 : “Please don't approach me.”What is it that makes us feel we need to hide 5 our screens?One answer is fear, according to Jon Wortmann, executive mental coach. We fear rejection, or that our innocent social advances will be 6 as "creepy,". We fear we'll be 7 . We fear we'll be disruptive. Strangers are inherently 8 to us, so we are more likely to feel 9 when communicating with them compared with our friends and acquaintances. To avoid this anxiety, we 10 to our phones. "Phones become our security blanket," Wortmann says. "They are our happy glasses that protect us from what we perceive is going to be more 11 .”But once we rip off the bandaid, tuck our smartphones in our pockets and look up, it doesn't 12 so bad. In one 2011 experiment, behavioral scientists Nicholas Epley and Juliana Schroeder asked commuters to do the unthinkable: Start a 13 . They had Chicago train commuters talk to their fellow 14 . "When Dr. Epley and Ms. Schroeder asked other people in the same train station to 15 how they would feel after talking to a stranger, the commuters thought their 16 would be more pleasant if they sat on their own," the New York Times summarizes. Though the participants didn't expect a positive experience, after they 17 with the experiment, "not a single person reported having been snubbed."18 , these commutes were reportedly more enjoyable compared with those sans communication, which makes absolute sense, 19 human beings thrive off of social connections.

Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A new study suggests that contrary to most surveys, people are actually more stressed at home than at work. Researchers measured people‟s cortisol, which is a stress marker, while they were at work and while they were at home and found it higher at what is supposed to be a place of refuge.“Further contradicting conventional wisdom, we found that women as well as men have lower levels of stress at work than at home, ” writes one of the researchers, Sarah Damske. In fact women even say they feel better at work, she notes.“ It is men, notwo men, who report being happier at home than at work. ”Another surprise is that findings hold true for both those with children and without, but more so for nonparents. This is why people who work outside the home have better health.What the study doesn‟t measure is whether people are still doing work when they‟re at home, whether it is household work or work brought home from the office. For many men, the end of the workday is a time to kick back. For women who stay home, they never get to leave the office. And for women who work outside the home, they often are playing catch-up-with-household tasks. With the blurring of roles, and the fact that the home front lags well behind the workplace a making adjustments for working women, it‟s not surprising that women are more stressed at home.But it‟s not just a gender thing. At work, people pretty much know what they‟re supposed to be doing: working, marking money, doing the tasks they have to do in order to draw an income. The bargain is very pure: Employee puts in hours of physical or mental labor and employee draws out life-sustaining moola.On the home front, however, people have no such clarity. Rare is the household in which the division of labor is so clinically and methodically laid out. There are a lot of tasks to be done, there are inadequate rewards for most of them. Your homecolleagues-your family-have no clear rewards for their labor; they need to be talked into it, or if they‟re teenagers, threatened with complete removal of all electronic devices. Plus, they‟re your family. You cannot fire your family. You never really get to go home fromhome.So it‟s not surprising that people are more stressed at home. Not only are the tasks apparently infinite, the co-workers are much harder to motivate.21.According to Paragraph 1, most previous surveys found that home_____[A] offered greater relaxation than the workplace[B] was an ideal place for stress measurement[C] generated more stress than the workplace[D] was an unrealistic place for relaxation22. According to Damaske, who are likely to be the happiest at home?[A] Childless wives[B] Working mothers[C] Childless husbands[D] Working fathers23.The blurring of working women's roles refers to the fact that_____[A] it is difficult for them to leave their office[B] their home is also a place for kicking back[C] there is often much housework left behind[D] they are both bread winners and housewives24.The word“moola”(Line4,Para4)most probably means_____[A] skills[B] energy[C] earnings[D] nutrition25.The home front differs from the workplace in that_____[A] division of labor at home is seldom clear-cut[B] home is hardly a cozier working environment[C] household tasks are generally more motivating[D] family labor is often adequately rewardedText 2For years, studies have found that first-generation college students- those who do not have a parent with a college degree- lag other students on a range of education achievement factors. Their grades are lower and their dropout rates are higher. But since such students are most likely to advance economically if they succeed in higher education, colleges and universities have pushed for decades to recruit more of them. This has created “a paradox” in that recruiting first- generation students, but then watching many of them fail, means that higher education has “continued to reproduce and widen, rather than close” ab achievement gap based on social class, according to the depressing beginning of a paper forthcoming in the journal Psychological Science.But the article is actually quite optimistic, as it outlines a potential solution to thisproblem, suggesting that an approach (which involves a one-hour, next-to-no-cost program) can close 63 percent of the achievement gap (measured by such factors as grades) between first-generation and other students.The authors of the paper are from different universities, and their findings are based on a study involving 147 students ( who completed the project) at an unnamed private university. First generation was defined as not having a parent with a four-year college degree. Most of the first-generation students(59.1 percent) were recipients of Pell Grants, a federal grant for undergraduates with financial need, while this was true only for 8.6 percent of the students wit at least one parent with a four-year degree.Their thesis- that a relatively modest intervention could have a big impact- was based on the view that first-generation students may be most lacking not in potential but in practical knowledge about how to deal with the issues that face most college students. They cite past research by several authors to show that this is the gap that must be narrowed to close the achievement gap.Many first- generation students “struggle to navigate the middle-class culture of higher education, learn the …rules of the game,‟ and take advantage of college resources,” they write. And this becomes more of a problem when collages don‟t talk about the class advantage and disadvantages of different groups of students. Because US colleges and universities seldom acknowledge how social class can affect students ‟educational experience, many first-generation students lack sight about why they are struggling and do not understand how students‟ like them can improve.26. Recruiting more first- generation students has_______[A] reduced their dropout rates[B] narrowed the achievement gap[C] missed its original purpose[D] depressed college students27. The author of the research article are optimistic because_______[A] the problem is solvable[B] their approach is costless[C] the recruiting rate has increased[D] their finding appeal to students28. The study suggests that most first- generation students______[A] study at private universities[B] are from single-parent families[C] are in need of financial support[D] have failed their collage29. The author of the paper believe that first-generation students_______[A] are actually indifferent to the achievement gap[B] can have a potential influence on other students[C] may lack opportunities to apply for research projects[D] are inexperienced in handling their issues at college30. We may infer from the last paragraph that_______[A] universities often reject the culture of the middle-class[B] students are usually to blame for their lack of resources[C] social class greatly helps enrich educational experiences[D]colleges are partly responsible for the problem in questionText 3Even in traditional offices, “the lingua franca of corpora te America has gotten much more emotional and much more right-brained than it was 20 years ago,” said Harvard Business School professor Nancy Koehn. She started spinning off examples. “If you and I parachuted back to Fortune 500 companies in 1990, we would see much less frequent use of terms like journey, mission, passion. There were goals, there were strategies, there were objectives, but we didn‟t talk about energy; we didn‟t talk about passion.”Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very“team”-oriented—and not by coincidence. “Let‟s not forget sports—in male-dominated corporate America, it‟s still a big deal. It‟s not explicitly conscious; it‟s the idea that I‟m a coach, and you‟re my team, and we‟re in this together. There are lots and lots of CEOs in very different companies, but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win.”These terms are also intended to infuse work with meaning—and, as Khurana points out, increase allegiance to the firm. “You have the importation of terminology that historically used to be associated with non-profit organizations and religious organizations: Terms like vision, values, passion, and purpose,” sai d Khurana.This new focus on personal fulfillment can help keep employees motivated amid increasingly loud debates over work-life balance. The “mommy wars” of the 1990s are still going on today, prompting arguments about why women still can‟t have it all and books like Sheryl Sandberg‟s Lean In, whose title has become a buzzword in its own right. Terms like unplug, offline, life-hack, bandwidth, and capacity are all about setting boundaries between the office and the home. But if your work is your “passion,” you‟ll be more likely to devote yourself to it, even if that means going home for dinner and then working long after the kids are in bed.But this seems to be the irony of office speak: Everyone makes fun of it, but managers love it, companies depend on it, and regular people willingly absorb it. As Nunberg said, “You can get people to think it‟s nonsense at the same time that you buy into it.” In a workplace that‟s fundamentally indifferent to your life and its meaning, office speak can help you figure out how you relate to your work—and how your workdefines who you are.31. According to Nancy Koehn, office language has become_____[A] more emotional[B] more objective[C] less energetic[D] less strategic32. “Team”-oriented corporate vocabulary is closely related to_______[A] historical incidents[B] gender difference[C] sports culture[D] athletic executives33.Khurana believes that the importation of terminology aims to______[A] revive historical terms[B] promote company image[C] foster corporate cooperation[D] strengthen employee loyalty34.It can be inferred that Lean In________[A] voices for working women[B] appeals to passionate workaholics[C] triggers debates among mommies[D] praises motivated employees35.Which of the following statements is true about office speak?[A] Managers admire it but avoid it[B] Linguists believe it to be nonsense[C] Companies find it to be fundamental[D] Regular people mock it but accept itText 4Many people talked of the 288,000 new jobs the Labor Department reported for June, along with the drop in the unemployment rate to 6.1 percent, as good news. And they were right. For now it appears the economy is creating jobs at a decent pace. We still have a long way to go to get back to full employment, but at least we are now finally moving forward at a faster pace.However, there is another important part of the jobs picture that was largely overlooked. There was a big jump in the number of people who repot voluntarily working part-time. This figure is now 830,000(4.4 percent)above its year ago level.Before explaining the connection to the Obamacare, it is worth making an important distinction. Many people who work part-time jobs actually want full-time jobs. They takepart-time work because this is all they can get. An increase in involuntary part-time work is evidence of weakness in the labor market and it means that many people will be having a very hard time making ends meet.There was an increase in involuntary part-time in June, but the general direction has been down. Involuntary part-time employment is still far higher than before the recession, but it is down by 640,000(7.9percent)from is year ago level.We know the difference between voluntary and involuntary part-time employment because people tell us. The survey used by the Labor Department asks people is they worked less than 35 hours in the reference week. If the answer is “yes”, they are classified as worked less than 35hours in that week because they wanted to work less than full time or because they had no choice .They are only classified as voluntarypart-time workers if they tell the survey taker they chose to work less than 35 hours a week.The issue of voluntary part-time relates to Obamacare because one of the main purposes was to allow people to get insurance outside of employment. For many people , especially those with serious health conditions or family members with serious health conditions ,before Obamacare the only way to get insurance was through a job that provided health insurance.However, Obamacare has allowed more than 12 million people to either get insurance through Medicaid or the exchanges. These are people who may previously have felt the need to get a full-time job that provided insurance in order to cover themselves and their families. With Obamacare there is no longer a link between employment and insurance.36. Which part of the jobs picture are neglected?[A] The prospect of a thriving job market.[B] The increase of voluntary part-time market.[C] The possibility of full employment.[D] The acceleration of job creation.37. Many people work part-time because they_____.[A] prefer part-time jobs to full-time jobs.[B] feel that is enough to make ends meet.[C] cannot get their hands on full-time jobs.[D] haven‟t seen the weakness of the market.38. Involuntary part-time employment is the US_____.[A] is harder to acquire than one year ago.[B] shows a general tendency of decline.[C] satisfies the real need of the jobless.[D] is lower than before the recession.39. It can be learned that with Obamacare,_____.[A] it is no longer easy for part-timers to get insurance[B] employment is no longer a precondition to get insurance[C] it is still challenging to get insurance for family members[D] full-time employment is still essential for insurance40. The text mainly discusses_______.[A] employment in the US[B] part-timer classification[C] insurance though Medicaid[D] Obamacare‟s troublePart BDirections:In the following text, some sentences have been removed. For Questions 41-45, choose the most suitable one from the list [A]-[G] to fit into each of the numbered blank. There are two extra choices, which do not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET.

We are going through life facing sad experiences. Moreover, we are grieving various kinds of loss: a friendship, a romantic relationship or a house. Hard times may hold you down at what usually seems like the most inopportune time, but you should remember that they won‟t last forever.When our time of mourning is over, we press forward, stronger with a greater understanding and respect for life. Furthermore, these losses make us mature and eventually move us toward future opportunities for growth and happiness. I want to share these ten old truths I‟ve learned along the way.41._____________________________Fear is both useful and harmful. This normal human reaction is used to protect us by signaling danger and preparing us to deal with it. Unfortunately, people create inner barriers with a help of exaggerating fears. My favor ite actor Will Smith once said, “Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create. Do not misunderstand me. Danger is very real. But fear is a choice.” I do completely agree that fears are just the product of our luxuriant imagination.42_____________________________If you are surrounded by problems and cannot stop thinking about the past, try to focus on the present moment. Many of us are weighed down by the past or anxious about the future. You may feel guilt over your past, but you are poisoning the present with the things and circumstances you cannot change. Value the present moment and remember how fortunate you are to be alive. Enjoy the beauty of the world around and keep the eyes open to see the possibilities before you. Happiness is not a point of future and not a moment from the past, but a mindset that can be designed into the present.43______________________________Sometimes it is easy to feel bad because you are going through tough times. You can be easily caught up by life problems that you forget to pause and appreciate the things you have. Only strong people prefer to smile and value their life instead of crying and complaining about something.44________________________________No matter how isolated you might feel and how serious the situation is, you shouldalways remember that you are not alone. Try to keep in mind that almost everyone respects and wants to help you if you are trying to make a good change in your life, especially your dearest and nearest people. You may have a circle of friends who provide constant good humor, help and companionship. If you have no friends or relatives, try to participate in several online communities, full of people who are always willing to share advice and encouragement.45________________________________Today many people find it difficult to trust their own opinion and seek balance by gaining objectivity from external sources. This way you devalue your opinion and show that you are incapable of managing your own life. When you are struggling to achieve something important you should believe in yourself and be sure that your decision is the best. You live in your skin, think your own thoughts, have your own values and make your own choices.Section III TranslationDirections:Translate the following text from English into Chinese. Write your translation on ANSWER SHEET 2. (15 points)Think about driving a route that‟s very familiar. It could be your commute to work, a trip into town or the way home. Whichever it is, you know every twist and turn like the back of your hand. On these sorts of trips it‟s easy to zone out from the actual driving and pay little attention to the passing scenery. The consequence is that you perceive that the trip has taken less time than it actually has.This is the well-travelled road effect: people tend to underestimate the time it takes to travel a familiar route.The effect is caused by the way we allocate our attention. When we travel down a well-known route, because we don‟t ha ve to concentrate much, time seems to flow more quickly. And afterwards, when we come to think back on it, we can‟t remember the journey well because we didn‟t pay much attention to it. So we assume it was shorter.Section IV WritingPart A47.

2015学位英语真题
2015. 05.09学位英语真题Part I Reading comprehensionPassage 1Maggie Walker was born in 1976 in Richmond, Virginia. Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman’s house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggies’mother started doing laundry in her home. Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school. She was a very good student, especially in math.After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a hob as a teacher. In 1886, she married Armistead Walker. They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them. She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead. Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization. The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other.Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization. In 1895, she suggested that St. Luke begin a program for young people.(76) This program became very popular with schoolchildren. In 1899, Walker became Grand Secretary Treasure of the St. Luke organization. However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St. Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over. It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank. But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that. (77) Her idea was to get new members to join the organization. In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members. The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55. Now Walker was ready for her next big step.1.Maggie’s father died ___________.A. when she finished high schoolB. before she was bornC. when she was very youngD. after she got married2.Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.Maggie had two children.B. Maggie was once a slave.C. Maggie was good at math.D. Maggie taught for a while.3. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Maggie loved to help other African Americans.B. Maggie was very popular with schoolteachers.C. Maggie was the founder of the Order of St. Luke.D. Maggie was better paid than men as Grand Secretary Treasurer.4. The word impoverished in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ___________.A. difficultB. richC. famousD. poor5. After Paragraph 4, the author will probably talk about Maggie’s ___________.A. educationB. next projectC. payD. childhoodPassage 2When Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year, he promised to end a controversial (有争议的), citywide cell-phone ban (禁令) in public schools, which is not equally enforced in all schools. Now, under his leadership, the city is preparingto end the ban. It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class.Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, “If we don’t see it, we don’t know about it.” That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets.But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, the ban has been strictly enforced. The detectors were installed to keep weapons out of schools, but the scanners (扫描仪) can also detect cell phones. So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them.The ban was put into place in 2007 under Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban. Workers in vans (厢式货车) that resemble food trucks store teens’ cell phones and other devices for a dollar a day.(78) Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency. They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory. Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who can’t afford to pay to store their phones.Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy. (79) It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests.6. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. New York City will give financial aid to poor students.B. New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries.C. New York City plans to install metal detectors in all public schools.D. New York City will soon end a ban on cell phones in schools.7. Students pay___________ a day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school.A. a dollarB. two dollarsC. five dollarsD. ten dollars8. Metal detectors were installed in 88 city schools, mainly to keep ___________ out of schools.A. cell phonesB. weaponsC. alcoholD. drugs9. The word discriminatory in Paragraph 5 probably means ___________.A. necessaryB. toughC. strictD. unfair10. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. After the cell-phone ban is ended, students can use their phones during class.B. The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools.C. The cell-phone ban was put into place in 2008 under Mayor Bill de Blasio.D. A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses. Passage 3Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned moremoney than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）.“B reast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits,” says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in the Lancet Global Health.(80) Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby’s health. This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who’s breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby’s IQ by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding.Horta says these previous studies didn’t follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he had his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests. Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breast-fed stayed longer in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.11. From the passage, we learn that Horta___________.A. is from BrazilB. conducts his research in the U.S.C. has 30 researchers on his teamD. is well-known in developing countries12. Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT mentioned?A. They stayed longer in school.B. They were happierC. They were smarterD. They made more money13. Which of the following is TRUE?A. Doctors don’t understand the benefits of breast-feeding.B. Horta is concerned with water contamination in poor countries.C. Horta’s research project lasted about 30 years.D. Breast-feeding is the only way to improve a baby’s health.14. The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closet in meaning to ___________.A. finishedB. interestedC. clearedD. polluted15. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Researchers Have Pointed Out the Disadvantages of Breast-feedingB. Researchers Have Found Out the Shortcomings of FormulaC. Breast-feeding Improves Chances of SuccessD.

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. 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 single bar through the center of the letter.Passage OneHere's a familiar story. You're sitting at the dinner table with a furry, four-legged friend scratching at your feet. When you look down, those cute eyes are almost impossible to resist.What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A new study by Japanese scientist Miho Nagasawa seems to have found the answer, and it has to do with something called the cuddle(爱抚)chemical.The cuddle chemical has another, more scientific name: oxytocin. Oxytocin is a substance in the blood that encourages bonding. Levels of oxytocin increase, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true when we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs. It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals. The wolves would eat the food left behind by the humans.Humans realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and eventually both species began to work together toward survival.Over time, the wolves that interacted with the humans began to change. They became more loyal to their human partners. The wolves and humans started to depend on each other and bond with each other. These changes are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we now know as dogs, a new specie^ evolved to better survive in their environment.This process depended a great deal on the bond humans formed with them. And according to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytocin, the cuddle chemical.11. What do we know about oxytocin?A. It regulates blood flow.B. It promotes bonding.C. It is in the human gene.D. It is good for health.12. When we look deeply into a dog's eyes, the levels of our oxytocin ____.A. reduce over timeB. go either up or downC. are on the riseD. remain unchanged13.

Big monopolies try to buy inventions and turn them to their own profits. When they fail, they resort to other tricks. Inventors have to overcome thousands of difficulties put in their path before they can see their dreams realized.When George Stephenson was experimenting with the stream engine, there was much opposition from the Parliament, the newspaper, and landlords. They claimed that the noise and the smoke would kill cows, horses and sheep, that the engine would burst or that hot coals from it wouldSo it was a very difficult matter for George Stephenson to persuade the people that trains could go on smooth rails, could pull carriages and wagons full of people and goods, and that there was no great danger of accidents.However, he was able to do it, and the first train driven by Stephenson himself showed that the newly invented steam engine was a complete success.56、The word "those" in the first sentence refers to C、interests57、Why do big monopolies buy inventions? C、They want to make more money.58、Which of the following is not the very reason for the opposition to Stephenson's experiment? C、It would waste coal.59、The word "dream" in the first paragraph refers to B、inventors' plans for invention60、What is the main idea of this paragraph? D、Oppositions to Stephenson the inventor.（二）、As a young girl, Elizabeth Barrett (Browning英国作家勃朗宁) ruptured a blood vessel on the lungs which did not heal. The physician consigned her to a milder climate for the winter and she went Devonshire for restoration. Among the members of her family who accompanied her to those healing shores was her eldest brother.For a whole year they lived side by side in affectionate companionship, she all the while being greatly benefited by mild sea breezes of Torquay.One summer morning her brother went board a small sailboat with two friends for a trip of several hours around the coast. Just as the vessel came in sight of the window where Miss Barrett sat watching, the boat struck a sunken reef; and all who were in it went down and perished in the sea, before assistant could be rendered. None of the bodies were ever found although the whole village, full of sympathy, assembled in search. This was the tragedy which utterly prostrated for some years afterwards the health and soul of Elizabeth Barrett. Somehow she felt that she herself had in some measure been the cause of all this horror, and she suffered accordingly. Her whole being seemed shattered, and a year longer elapsed before, she was able to be more to London. This fatal event, which so saddened her youth gave also a still deeper devotional feeling to hue of sorrow so apparent in many of her earlier pieces.61、What sort of climate did Elizabeth's doctor prescribe? A、Temperate.62、How many people were drowned when the boat sank? C、Three63、How did the tragedy affect Elizabeth? D、It affected her both physically and emotionally.64、Whom did she blame for the accident? B、Herself.65、The incident had _____ on her poetry. D、a strong influence六、写作题（共15分）Directions: For this part, you are required to write a composition on the topic Is Competition a Good or Bad Thing?

When you enjoy something, it's a lot easier to do it well.五、阅读理解（每题1分，共20分）（一）、Television ,the modern wonder of electronics, brings the world into your own home in sight and sound,1. And the word "television" means "seeing far".Television works in much the same way as radio. In radio, sound is changed into electromagnetic (invisible light) waves which are sent through the air. Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago. By the 1920s inventors and researchers had turned the early theories into working models.Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become an industry.The influence of TV on the life of people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life. It can also add to their store of knowledge. Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects. Some hospitals use TV for medical students to get close-up views of operations. At first television programs were broadcast in black-and -white. With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones. Since the launching of the first communications satellite, more and more programs are telecast "live" from all over the world. People in San Francisco were able to watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. And live telecasts now come from outer space. In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic "moon walk" to viewers on the earth. Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth.56、Television is said to be the modern wonder of electronics, because C、it brings the world into people's own home in sight and sound57、Television became an industry in D、the 1950s58、The word "incalculable" means A、very great59、The development of science and technology made it possible for television programs to D、be telecast in full color60、The launching of communications satellites made it possible for people to C、watch the 1964 Olympic Games in T okyo（二）、The seriously depressed person sees himself in a very negative way.He is sure that he is alone and hopeless. He often blames himself for ordinary faults and shortcomings which he exaggerates. He is very discouraged about himself, the world, and his future. He becomes less interested in what is going on around him and doesn't get satisfaction from things he used to enjoy. Fatigue and early morning sleeplessness are quite common. The depressed person may want to sleep more than usual. He may lose his appetite and lose weight, or eat more than normally and gain weight. Another particular sign, seen in women, is crying spells. Many of these spells are short and common.Depressives share the feeling that they have lost something very important to them, though often this is not really the case. From a feeling of loss, the depressed person progresses to false ideas that he is a loser and will always be a loser, that he must be worthless and perhaps not fit to live. He may even attempt suicide.So many very depressed people attempt suicide that depressive illness may be considered the only fatal mental illness. Not all those suffering from depressive illness do attempt suicide. But the relationship is striking. It is estimated that as many as 75 percent of those who attempt suicide are seriously depressed. Other studies show that the person hospitalized for depression is about 36 times more likely to commit suicide than is the non-depressed person. The greatest risk occurs during or immediately after hospitalization. After age 40, the possibility of suicide increases in very depressed person. Almost twice as many women as men suffer from depressive illness. Almost twice as many women as men attempt suicide, but three times more men than women succeed.61、Depressives share the feeling that they C、have lost something62、Depressive illness may be considered the only mental illness A、which is fatal63、Of the people who attempt suicide, C、most suffer from depression64、The greatest risk of suicide occurs C、just after hospitalization65、Statistics show that A、more men than women commit suicide（三）、It was not yet eleven o'clock when a boat crossed the river with a single passenger who had obtained his transportation at that unusual hour by promising an extra fare. While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pocket for money, the ferryman lifted a lantern, by the aid of which, together with the newly risen moon, he took a very accurate survey of the stranger's figure. He was a young man of barely eighteen years, evidently country bred, and now, as it seemed, on his first visit to town. He was wearing a tough gray coat, which was in good shape, but which had seen many winters before this. The garments under his coat were well constructed of leather, and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular legs; his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister, and on his head was a three-cornered hat, which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father. In his left hand was a walking stick, and his equipment was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung. Brown, curly hair, well-shaped features, bright, cheerful eyes were nature's gifts, and worth all that art could have done for his adornment. The youth, whose name was Robin, paid the boatman, and then walked forward into the town with a light step, as if he had not already traveled more than thirty miles that day. As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.66、The story took place in D、winter67、The boatman was willing to take Robin across the river because A、he wanted to make extra money.68、The stockings that Robin wore were obviously C、handmade69、From the way he looked, it was evident that Robin was B、a country boy70、How did Robin appear as he walked into the town? A、He was cheerful and excited.六、写作题（共15分）Directions: For this part, you are required to write a composition on the topic My Way to Spend Holidays.

电大工商管理英语考试-阅读理解Word版
Monarch butterflies（黑脉金斑蝶）are a common summer sight in the northern United States and Canada . These large orange and black insects（昆虫）brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers . What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate（迁飞）—all the way to California or Mexico and back . They are thought to be the only insect that does this .Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south . Those heading for Mexico go first for the Louisiana-Mississippi area , then fly across the Gulf of Mexico into Texas . Once in Mexico , they settle themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees . Each place provides a winter home for millions of monarchs . The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees . When spring comes , they begin their long journey north .The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year . And the answer is no . The average monarch lives about nine months . So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then die . The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky ; the eggs of the next generation may end up in Wisconsin or Michigan . The last generation of the season , about the fourth , will make their way back to Mexico and restart the journey .Scientists learn about monarchs’ migration by catching and making marks on the insects . By recatching a monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from , the next scientist can get to know things like the butterfly’s age and its routing （路线）.1. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is ________.A. the Gulf of MexicoB. an area in MississippiC. a forest in MexicoD. a plain in Texas2. The routing of monarchs’ migration can be le arned ________.A. by examining the marks made on themB. by collecting their eggs in the mountainsC. by comparing their different agesD. by counting the dead ones in the forests3. What is the subject discussed in the passage ?A. Migration of monarchs .B. Scientists’ interest in monarchs .C. Winter home of monarchs .D. Life and death of monarchs .答案：1. C 2. A 3. ASYDNEY: As they sat sharing sweets beside a swimming pool in 1999 , Shane Gould and Jessicah Schipper were simply getting along w ell , chatting about sport , life and “ anything else that came up . ”Yet in Sydney next month , they will meet again by the pool , and for a short time the friends will race against each other in the 50-meter butterfly（蝶泳）in the Australian championships at Homebush Bay .Gould , now a 47-year-old mother of four , has announced she will be making a return to elite competition （顶级赛事）to swim the one event , having set a qualifying（合格的）time of 30.32 seconds in winning gold at last year’s United States Master s championships . Her comeback comes 32 years after she won three golds at the Munich Olympics . Schipper , now a 17-year-old from Brisbane with a bright future of going to Athens for her first Olympics , yesterday recalled（回忆）her time with Gould fie years ago .“ I was at a national youth came on the Gold Coast and Shane had come along to talk to us and watch us train , ” Schipper explained . “ It seemed as if we had long been god friends . I don’t know why . We just started talking and it went from there . ”“ She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp . She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what it’s like to be on an Australian team . It was really interesting . ”Next time , things will be more serious . “I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals , so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Shane Gould , ” said Schipper , who burst onto the scene at last year’s national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterfly .1. What is the passage mainly about ?A. Stories happening in swimming competitions .B. Two women swimmers winning Olympic golds .C. Lessons learned from international swimming championships .D. Friendship and competition between two swimmers .2. Gould and Schipper are going to ________ .A. talk about sport and lifeB. go back to elite competitionC. set a qualifying time and win goldD. take part in the same sports event3. Gould won her three Olympic golds when she was ________ .A. 15B. 17C. 22D. 304 .The underlined word “ it ” in the fifth paragraph probably refers to ________ .A. the OlympicsB. the youth campC. the friendshipD. the Australian team5. What Schipper said showed that she ________ .A. was no longer G ould’s friendB. had learned a lot from GouldC. was not interested in Gould’s storiesD. would not like to compete against Gould答案：1.D 2.D 3.A 4.C 5.BWith a good shopping position and the right amount（数量）of money , any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop . It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop . But the hours of work are very long-I was only doing a part-time job , but my boss put in a seventy-hour week ,besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books . The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life , however , is that while I was in it I lost my love of books . A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books , and that gives him a dislike for them . There was a time when I really did love books—loved the sight and smell and feel of them—if they were fifty or more years old , that is . Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds . There is a peculiar flavour（独特的味道）about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection: little-known eighteenth-century poets , or out-of-date geography books . For occasional（偶尔的）reading—in your bath , for example , or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed—there is nothing as good as a very old picture story-book .But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books . Seen in a mass . five or ten thousand at a time , books were dull and even a little tiresome . Nowadays I do buy one occasionally , but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow , and I never buy rubbish .1. According to the passage , ________is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop .A. an educated shop-ownerB. a good position at a street cornerC. a regular journey out of the shopD. the force of large chain-stores2. The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because________.A. he hated his job of selling booksB. selling books was only a part-time jobC. the books in the shop gave him a dislikeD. he was unable to be honest about the books he sold3. The books preferred by the author should be those ________ .A. stories making readers sleeplessB. valuable ones bought on saleC. peculiar ones with great expectationD. geography ones from the eighteenth century4. The author will only buy new books ________ .A. if he feels dull and tiredB. after he gives up his job as a booksellerC. which are interesting but hard to borrowD. when he throws away old ones答案：1.A 2.D 3.B 4.CMillions of aircraft take off around the world every year . The skies they fly in seem limitless—miles of empty space . But , with the number of flights increasing each year , this emptiness no longer exists . Researchers in the world of aviation（航空）are worried about the increasing pressure on pilots and ground controllers . And increasing collisions , occurring at or near an airport , have called attention to the need for more aids（辅助设备）to aviation control .People who travel the skies are not certain about air safety . A great deal of money is spent on new and bigger aircraft and airports to deal with the vast increase in passengers travelling by air . Only a small percentage of this money is spent on navigation（导航）and other aids . Actually , suitable electronic equipment has long existed , and many companies market safety aids designed to make it safer for aircraft to take off , fly any distance , and land , whatever the weather . Yet , there are two problems to be solved . The first is to get governments , airlines and airport officials to agree to basic levels of safety aids . The second problem is to find a way of meeting these basic requirements .But no matter how well the equipment works , operators of the equipment still play an important role . Communications between pilots and ground controllers are extremely important to air safety . It is worth pointing our that the mishearing or misunderstanding of instructions in English , and the use of another language , in an international conversation , have led to two recent aircraft accidents . A new type of instrument（仪器）called FLIGHTWATCH would help pilots prevent airport collisions . It would be particularly helpful near airports .1. The increasing number of flights leads to the fact that ________ .A. flying is no longer limited in the skyB. there is no empty space for aids to aviation controlC. piloting and controlling planes is getting more difficultD. the pressure on the ground becomes greater2. There is uncertainty about air safety because ________ .A. planes become bigger for the increasing number of passengersB. money spent on electronic equipment is far from enoughC. suitable electronic equipment hasn’t been invented yetD. it is dangerous for planes to take off or land3. The underlined word “ collisions ” probably means ________ .A. accidents in which two planes hit each otherB. misunderstandings between pilots and ground controllersC. quarrels among passengersD. breakdowns of new types of instrument4. It can be inferred from the passage that ________ .A. governments and officials have paid great attention to air safetyB. there should be more companies to sell new safety aidsC. English should be used in an international conversationD. understanding between pilots and ground controllers should be improved答案：1.C 3.B 3.A 4.DArt museums are places where people can learn about various cultures（文化）. The increasingly popular “ design museums ” that are opening today , however , perform quite a different role . Unlike most art museums , the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public . These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall .People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology . But their role is not simply a matter of sales-it is the honoring of excellently invented products . The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something , while the second tells you the success of a sale .One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled（困惑）. This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass-produced products work and look as they do , and how design has improved the quality of our lives . Art museum exhibits , on the other hand , would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding .In recent years , several new design museums have opened their doors . Each of thesemuseums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum , for example , shows a collection of mass-produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins . The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums , and visitors may also sense the humorous（幽默的）part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life .1. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because theyA. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do2. The author believes that most design museum visitors ________ .A. do not admire mass-produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well3. The choices open to design museums ________ .A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed to interest the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits4. The best title for this passage is ________ .A. The forms of design museumsB. The exhibits of design museumsC. The nature of design museumsD. The choices open to design museums1. D2. C3. D4. AAGeneva is situated between the Jura Range and the Alps on the western end of Lake Geneva. Capital of Peace is one of its names— the European headquarters of the United Nations lies here in Palais des Nations. Another worthy name for this city with a humanitarian tradition（人道主义传统）and international character is the World’s Smallest Metropolis. Parks,splendid stores and lively streets in the old part of town and its 2000 — year history wait to be discovered.he Jet d’Eau together with the Flower Watch are the main attractions every year for the tourists visiting Geneva. The Jet d’Eau has become the symbol(象征)of Geneva for a long time. This is a 140 meters high water monument with a rich history. Eight 13,500—watt projectors light the grand column(圆柱)of the fountain in the evening, from early March until the second Sunday of October. The Flower Watch, which was created at the edge of the English Garden in 1955,reminds us about that Geneva is the birthplace of the Swiss clock and watch making, and that this industry has become internationally famous, as well through the quality of the watches as through their beautiful appearance.Sails on Lake Geneva are also enjoyable.

Yes, that is the Taj Mahal, one of the most famous buildings in the world. And the tale behind the construction is just as impressive(印象深刻的) as the building itself. First, there’s the emperor of northern India, Shah Jehan, also called the King of the World. In 1612, Shah Jehan married Mumtaz Mahal. Madly in love, they had 14 children over the next 20 years. But then sadness came. As Mumtaz was about to give birth to child number 14, she said she had heard her unborn baby cry out. It was a sign of death. And as Mumtaz lay dying, she asked Jehan to build a lasting memorial(纪念物) to celebrate their love.When the heartbroken Jehan appeared eight days after his wife’s death, his people were shocked to see that his coal-black hair had turned snow-white.Putting a way his sadness, Jehan ordered his wife’s dying wish carried out. More than 20,000 workers labored nearly 22 years to complete the construction. In 1653, Jehan placed Mumtaz’s remains in the center under the building.And then, son number five, Aurangzeb, murdered his brothers and took over the power from his aging father. Hehan lived the rest of his days－eight years, to be exact －imprisoned not far from the Taj Mahal. Jehan was only allowed to climb onto the top of his prison to see the timeless treasure from a distance. But never again would he be allowed to visit it－until he was buried next to his wife.Today 25,000 people visit the Taj Mahal each day. Though the reason for building the tower was a strange, sad story, those who see its breath-taking beauty are reminded of the happiness that inspired(激发……的灵感) its construction.59．The first two paragraphs were written to show that _____.A.the Taj Mahal is an unusual historic buildingB. ancient Indian emperors were cruelC. construction workers led a hard life in ancient IndiaD. India has some of the most famous buildings in the world60．The Taj Mahal was first built as _____.A. a prisonB. a gift to MumtazC. a memorial buildingD. a tourist attraction 61．We learn from the text that Mumtaz probably died in _____.A. 1626B. 1632C. 1634D. 165362．The underlined word “happiness” in the last sentence refers to _____.A. the married happiness of the emperor and his wifeB.

I always Promised myself that I’d get out as soon as possible. Now, at age 20,I have a good job and a nice house, and I’m really proud of the independence I’ve achieved.Here’s the problem: several of my friends who still live with their parents wish they had places like mine — so much so that they make mine theirs.It started out with a couple of them spending the weekends with me. But now they seem to take it for granted that they can shou up any time they like. They bring boyfriends over, talk on the phone and stay out forever.I enjoy having my friends here sometimes—it makes the place feel comfortable and warm— but this is my home, not a party house. I was old enough to move out on my own, so why can’t I seem to ask my friends to respect my privacy(隐私)?JoanEdward’s reply to JoanDear Joan:If your family didn’t pay attention to your needs when you were a child, you probably have trouble letting others know your needs now.And if you’ve gathesed yourfriends around you to rebuild a happy family atmosphere(气氛),you may fear that saying no will bring back the kind of conflict you grew up with—or destroy the nice atmosphere you now enjoy. You need to understand that in true friendship it’s okay to put your own needs first from time to time.Be clear about the message you want to send. For example, “I really love yourc ompany but I also need some privacy. So please call before you come over.”63. We can learn from the first letter that Joan Edward ________ .A. lives away from her parentsB. takes pride in her friendsC. knows Mr Expert quite wellD. hates her parents very much64.We can infer from the first letter that ________ .A. Joan considers her friends more important than her privacyB. Joan’s friends visit her more often than she can acceptC. Joan doesn’t like the parties at allD. Joan dislikes the boyfriends her friends bring over65. According to Mr Expert, why can’t Joan tell her friends her feelings?A. She is afraid of hurting her friends.B. She does not understand true friendship.C. Her family experience stops her from doing so.D. She does not put her needs first.66. The underlined word “conflict” in the second letter means ________ .A. dependent lifeB. fierce fightC. bad mannersD. painful feeling67.The second letter suggests that Mr Expert ________ .A. is worried about Joan’s problemB. warns Joan not to quarrel with her friendsC. advises Joan on how to refuse peopleD. encourages Joan to be brave enoughDHave you ever had the strange feeling that you were being watched? You turned around and ,sure enough, someone was looking right at you!Parapsychologists(灵学家)say that humans have a natural ability to sense when someone is looking at them. To research whether such a “sixth sense”really exists, Robert Baker, a psychologist(心理学家)at the University of Kentucky, performed two experiments.In the first one, Baker sat behind unknowing people in public places and stared at the backs of their heads for 5 to 15 minutes. The subjects（受试者）were eating, drinking, readingstudying, watching TV, or working at a computer. Baker made sure that the people could not tell that he was sitting behind them during those periods. Later, when he questioned the subjects, almost all of them said they had no sense that someone was staring at them.For the second experiment, Baker told the subjects that they would be stared at from time to time from behind a two way mirror in a laboratory setting. The people had to write down when they felt they were being stared at and when they weren’t. Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were stared at and when they were n’t .Baker found that the subjects were no better at telling when they were started at than if they had just guessed.Baker concludes that people do not have the ability to sense when they’re being stared at.If people doubt the outcome of his two experimen ts, said Baker, “I suggest they repeat the experiments and see for themselves.”68. The purpose of the two experiments is to ________ .A. explain when eople can have a sixth senseB. show how people act while being watched in the labC. study whether humans can sense when they are stared atD. prove why humans havea sixth sense69.In the first experiment, the subjects ________ .A. were not told that they would be stared atB. lost their sense when they were stared atC. were not sure when they would be stared atD. were uncomfortable when they were stared at70.The underlined word “outcome” in the last paragraph most probably means________ .A. valuB. resultC. performanceD. connection71. What can be learned from the passage?A. People are born with a sixth sense.B. The experiments support parapsychologists’idea.C. The subjects do not have a sixth sense in the experiments.D. People have a sixth sence in public places.EBesides giving off gases and dusts into the air, humans produce waste that is poured on the environment. Often, this waste produced by major industries and people is harmful to both nature and human life.One of the main causes of the large amount of dangerous waste is that people do not realize how large a problem it is. Because it can be simply removed and sent to a landfill(废渣填埋场),the problem is often believed to end there. In addition, industries have often shown an unwillingness to find ways to deal with dangerous waste because of the related expenses. Many industries and governments build simple landfills to store waste, and often just pour waste chemicals into nearby bodies of water. Often, chemicals used for industrial production cause dangerous forms of waste.The amount of these chemicals has increased greatly in the past, but it is often difficult and expensive to get rid of these chemicals or to store them in a way safe to human life and the environment.Every year, major health problems result from dangerous waste. Sadly, it is often only after someone has died or become seriously ill that governments will take measures to reduce levels of harmful waste.Some governments have realized how serious the dangerous waste problem is and are now trying to settle this problem. They are also trying to limit the amount of waste industries are allowed to produce.Not only governments but ordinary people as well must work together to solve the problem. They can choose not to buy those products which require the production of dangerous waste, and produce less harmful waste themselves. Many scientists think that waste production can be cut. The waste can be reduced by at least one third using existing technologies and methods.72. What would be the best title for the text?A. Measures of Reducing Dangerous WasteB. Danger of Harmful Waste to MankindC. Dangerous Waste and Water PollutionD. Environmental Protection73.According to the text, people ________ .A. do not produce harmful waste in their daily lifeB. do not know where to place the dangerous wasteC. are not clear about how serious the dangerous waste problem isD. are not sure about where harmful waste ends74.What troubles industries most in dealing with the dangerous waste problem?A. How to get government support.B. How to increase their productionC. How to store harmful waste.D. How to cut down the related costs.75. What can be inferred from the passage?A. The polluting industries are not allowed to sell their products.B. Present technologies have settled the harmful waste problem.C. Everyone should obey the government rules for the problem.D. To solve the problem requires the efforts of the whole society.56-60 BADAD 61-65 ADABC 66-70 BCCAB 71-75 CBCDDATired of Working in Your Country"!With over 500 instructors and 20 years of experience, we are the leader in the field of teaching foreign languages.
