Write your answers on the Answer Sheet.(1)The isles of Greece, the Isles of Greece!Where burning Sappho loved and sung,Where grew the arts of war and peace,Where Delos rose, and Phoebus sprung!Eternal summer gilds them yet,But all, except their sun, is set.The Scian and the Teian muse,The hero’s harp, the lover’s lute,Have found the fame your shores refuse;Their place of birth alone is muteTo sounds which echo further westThan your sires’ “Islands of the Blest.”……Place me on Sunium’s marbled steep,Where nothing, save the waves and I,May hear our mutual murmurs sweep;There, swan-like, lit me sing and die:A land of slaves shall ne’er be mine—Dash down yon cup of Samian wine!1. Who is the writer of these lines? Which poem is it taken from?2. Please interpret this section.(2)It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighborhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered as the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters.“My dear Mr. Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?”Mr. Bennet replied that he had not.“But it is,” returned she; “for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it.”Mr. Bennet made no answer.“Do not you want to know who has taken it?” cried his wife impatiently.“You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it.”This was invitation enough.“Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four to see the place, and was so much delighted with it that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of hisservants are to be in the house by the end of next week.”“What is his name?”“Bingley.”“Is he married or single?”“Oh! single, my dear, to be s ure! A single man of large fortune;four or five thousand a year.What a fine thing for our girls!”“How so? how can it affect them?”“My dear Mr. Bennet,” replied his wife, “how can you be sotiresome! You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them.”“Is that his design in settling here?”“Design! nonsense, how can you talk so! But it is very likely thathe may fall in love with one of them, and therefore you must visithim as soon as he comes.”3. Which novel is this passage taken from? Who is the author?4. Please interpret this passage.(3)For a week after the commission of the impious and profane offence of asking for more, Oliver remained a close prisoner in the dark and solitary room to which he had been consigned by the wisdom and mercyof the board.It appears, at first sight not unreasonable to suppose, that, if he had entertained a becoming feeling of respect for the prediction of the gentleman in the white waistcoat, he would have established that sage individual’s prophetic charact er, once and for ever, by tying one end of his pocket-handkerchief to a hook in the wall, and attaching himself to the other.To the performance of this feat, however, there was one obstacle:namely, that pocket-handkerchiefs, being decided articles of luxury, had been, for all future times and ages, removed from the noses of paupers by the express order of the board, in council assembled:solemnly given and pronounced under their hands and seals.There was a still greater obstacle in Oliver’s youth and childis hness.He only cried bitterlyall day; and, when the long, dismal night came on, spread his little hands before his eyes to shut out the darkness, and crouching in the corner, tried to sleep, ever and anon waking with a start and tremble, and drawing himself closer and closer to the wall, as if to feel even its cold hard surface were a protection in the gloom and loneliness which surrounded him.5. Which novel is this passage taken from? Please interpret this passage.Part Ⅴ: Give brief answers to the follow ing questions. (15%)1. State the major characteristics of modernism.2. Give a brief analysis of the themes of The Waste Land.。

READING COMPREHENSIONRead the two passages and choose the most likely answer to each of the questions. Write the letter corresponding to your choice on the answer sheet (2 points each, 20 points in all)Passage 1Friendship and friends continue to remain central to our lives. The relationship that we share with our friends is grounded in a mutual concern as our friends help us in shaping up our personalities as well. Even in this age of online social networking, the need of expanding the network of friends, whether online or offline remains a primary concern for people. We may have a very vague understanding of what makes a friend but we all want to have a good many friends around us.Research has shown that the quality and nature of your friends are one of the key influencing factors in achieving happiness and satisfaction. Friends often affect the health and energy of a person as well. More and more people are increasingly turning towards their friends for support and mutual sharing rather than communicating to their relatives; this sociological phenomenon has escalated the desire to make more friends. Though friendship is a relationship developed between two individuals marked by a voluntary, emotional and mutual concern, there are certain steps, which, if followed, can win you friends or at least help you get close to those whom you want to make friends with.The first step to make friends with someone is to make them like you. If they don’t like you in the first place, it is unlikely that they’ll be eager to become your friends. To let someone know that you are genuinely interested in them, simple gestures like a little smile and calling him by his first name can lay the basic foundation. To make the other person feel important you need to be a good listener and encourage the other person to talk. Give your honest and sincere opinion but do not overtly criticize or make fun of him or her.The second step of making someone your friend is to develop a mutual consideration between each other. You need to share his or her perspective and for that it is necessary for you to develop a tendency to see things from th e other person’s point of view. To become best of friends you must show a genuine concern and consideration for your friend’s desires and opinions.The third and final step towards friendship is to show your unconditional support and encouragement towards your friend. Moreover, you also need to be very clear about your expectations from your friend. If what you expect from the person you want to befriend matches with what that person can and want to contribute in friendship, the developing friendship between you and your friend is assured to grow, making both of you gratified with mutual emotional bonding.Friendship has overwhelming significance on both social and individual levels. Friendship doesn’t only provide us with emotional as well as practical supp ort but it also helps us improve our personal identities. So it is quite natural to feel the urge to reach out and make new friends, expanding your friend’s circle. Friendship remains familiar yet quite ambiguous (模糊的) for our deeper understanding, but then again, friends remain the most important ingredients in the recipe of life!41. The relationship between friends is based on ______.A. the social networking around friendsB. friends’ caring and helping each otherC. the style friends choose to communicateD. an unclear understanding of what makes a friend42. Which of the following statements has been proved correct?A. The better quality your friends have, the happier you will be.B. Communication with friends is healthier than that with relatives.C. The more friends you have, the more satisfied you are with yourself.D. Those you like in the first place are more likely to become your friends.43. The word “escalated” in the second paragraph probably means ______.A. intensifiedB. challengedC. shiftedD. resisted44. It can be inferred from the first suggested step that ______ is NOT likely to win you friends.A. making others talkB. being very talkativeC. telling people you like themD. addressing others in an informal way45. What structure does the author use to organize this passage?A. Effect- cause.B. Comparison- contrast.C. General- specific- general.D. Definition - explanation - example.来源:考试大-自考站Passage 2Every single student that applies for a class or course online has certain expectations and they are often extremely high. Unfortunately for most individuals, they will be disappointed. It is a fact that the majority of individuals believe that they will actually enjoy every aspect of their course. The truth is that there is very little in a degree to inspire until an individual actually completes the course and is awarded the degree or certificate that could change his or her life. This is no different with an online education and, in fact, the disappointment may be more obvious because they may face extra difficulties in an online course. Online education expectations are often incredibly high, as previously stated, in terms of what an individual can get from it as well as the manageability of the content itself. However, although an individual will ultimately be proven right about what he or she can get from it, this will not be the case for manageability. Most online education courses are anything but manageable for those who decide to take them. The level of work would be the same as any other degree or qualification course, but an individual is expected to manage it on his or her own instead of having a tutor or lecturer there to remind him or her about assignments and deadlines. Time manage ment is extremely important, but the nature of these individuals’ life often makes it impossible to manage without feeling the stresses and strains of the burden. It is important to be realistic with your expectations concerning an online education course, but many are completely unrealistic. If you read any of the accounts from students that have already taken and may have even passed an online education course, many will speak in glowing terms; but you should also read between the lines. They claim that their expectations will ultimately be fulfilled in terms of thelong-term benefits. However, in the short term they may say they found it difficult to cope with the workload, the lack of time that they actually had to complete it, an unsupportive employer and so on. This last point may not be an issue if you are doing it to advance yourself within your current workplace, but there will otherwise be some sort of resentment bubbling under the surface and that can indeed make your life a misery for a little while. If you expect it and prepare for it then it should not bother you too much, and if the resentment does not come then so much the better! In terms of your own expectations, the best attitude to have is not to go in with any at all. If you do not expect anything then you may be pleasantly surprised. It can be difficult to fit an online education in with personal commitments, such as a family to look after or a job to go to every day whilst trying to study. It does take a lot of effort, but if you do not expect it to be easy or expect that you will just be able to do it without the balance of your life being upset as a result, then you will probably find that you do get a sense of satisfaction from it! Similarly, if you expect the worst then you will probably be pleasantly surprised! Managing your expectations can be difficult, but do not let them get the better of you !46. The manageability is more difficult in online courses than in any other course because ______.A. online courses require higher level of workB. online courses bring much more assignmentsC. online course takers have no way to contact their lecturersD. online course takers have to rely on themselves for management47. According to the passage, one may not have the problem of an unsupportive employer if ______.A. he is fully prepared to deal with any resentment from his bossB. his online education will be beneficial to his current workplaceC. his expectations will be fulfilled in the form of long-term benefitsD. he can discuss the issue width his boss openly and bravely on the table48. According to the writer of this passage, one’s satisfaction in online education might come from ______.A. high expectationsB. diligent effortsC. a realistic attitudeD. a proper balance49. In the las t sentence of this passage, the phrase “get the better of you” probably means “______”.A. make a fool of youB. take advantage of youC. get too fancy for you to imagineD. become too high for you to control50. This passage is written mainly for the purpose of ______.A. inspiring its readers to fulfill their expectations through hard workB. persuading its readers to be more practical with their personal commitmentsC. informing its readers about the disadvantages of the courses they take onlineD. preparing its readers for the hardships they may encounter in online education 来V.

三、阅读理解Passage 1Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history. An American university president once commented that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity (特性) of time and space and so on — but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to become a professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War.Einstein hated violence. The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work.In the years following the First World War, honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whilhem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize for Physics, and he was highly honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism (纳粹主义) when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.21.The first paragraph is mainly about _____.A.a new outlook of the universeB.the feelings of an American college presidentC.the change in human thought caused by EinsteinD.the difficulty in teaching Einstein's theory解：C[解析]本题是主旨题第⼀段的主题句是第⼀句“Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history”表明爱因斯坦对科学和历史都有极⼤的影响，⽽第⼆句说明了爱因斯坦使⼈们对世界观，对宇宙有了⼀个新的认识。

全国2011年10月高等教育自学考试英语阅读（二）试题课程代码：00596全部题目用英文作答（翻译题除外），请将答案填在答题纸相应位置上I. Reading Comprehension (50 points, 2 points for each)Directions: In this part of the test, there are five passages. Following each passage, there are five questions with four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and then write the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet.Passage OneToward twelve o’ clock, when we were crossing a high land, we heard the cry of a young animal, which we all recognized to be a baby ape. We crawled through the bush as silently as possible, still hearing the baby-like cry. Then a frightened little ape came into our sight. I could not tell my surprise when I saw that the baby ape’ s face was pure white - very white indeed - pallid. The little one was about a foot in height. One of the men threw cloth over its head and we secured it with a rope.I called him Tommy, to which name he soon began to answer. He had a great affection for me, and used constantly to follow me about. When I sat down, he was not content till he had climbed upon me and hid his head in my breast. He was extremely fond of being petted and fondled and would sit for hours while any one stroked his head or back.He soon began to be a great thief. When the people left their huts he would steal in and make off with their plantains or fish. He watched very carefully till all had left the house, and it was difficult to catch him in the act.From me he stole constantly. He soon found out that my hut was better furnished with ripe bananas and other fruit than any other; and also he discovered that the best time to steal from me was when I was asleep in the morning. At that time he used to crawl in on his tiptoes, move slyly toward my bed, look at my closed eyes, and, if he saw no movement, with an air of great relief go up and pluck several plantains. If I stirred in the least he was off like a flash, and would presently reenter for another inspection. If my eyes were open when he came in on such a predatory trip, he at once came up to me with an honest face, and climbed on and caressed me. But I could easily detect an occasional wishful glance toward the bunch of plantains.浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第1页共15页He kept the run of mealtimes, and was present at as many meals as possible; that is, he would go from my breakfast to half a dozen others, and beg something at each. He was very fond of boiled meat - particularly boiled fish - and was constantly picking bones. He wanted always to taste my coffee, and would beg of me, in the most serious manner, for some.Tommy had a great deal of intelligence; and if I had had leisure I think I might have trained him to some kind of good behavior, though I despaired of his thieving disposition. He lived so long, and was growing so accustomed to civilized life, that I began to have great hopes of being able to carry him to America. But, one morning he refused his food, seemed downcast, and was very anxious to be petted and held in the arms. I got all kinds of forest berries for him, but he refused all. He did not seem to suffer, but ate nothing; and the next day, without a struggle, died. I was very sorry, for he had grown to be quite a pet companion for me.Questions1-5 are based on Passage One.1. How did the author find the little ape?A. He saw it in remote distance.B. It jumped right in front of him.C. He heard its frightened cry.D. He was told that it was there.2. Which of the following is true of Tommy?A. He liked to climb upon the author and scream in his breast.B. He liked to be petted and fondled by the author.C. He liked to chase the author about when he was very excited.D. He liked to play balls with the author in front of the house.3. When would Tommy steal food from the author?A. He would do it when the author lay still with his eyes closed.B. He would do it only when the food looked inviting.C. He would do it when he was not allowed to get the food.D. He would do it only when he was hungry.4. What kind of food did Tommy like?A. Milk and juice.B. Ripe bananas.C. Bread and butter.D. Boiled fish.5. Tommy __________ when he was dying.A. was restless and excited浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第2页共15页B. had a good appetite for wild berriesC. was anxious to be cared forD. ate few berries and plantainsPassage TwoFor some time past it has been widely accepted that babies - and other creatures - learn to do things because certain acts lead to “rewards”; and there is no reason to doubt that this is true. But it used also to be widely believed that effective reward, at least in the early stages, had to be directly related to such basic physiological “drives” as thirst or hunger. In other words, a baby would learn if he got food or drink or some sort of physical comfort, not otherwise.It is now clear that this is not so. Babies will learn to behave in ways that produce results in the world with no reward except the successful outcome.Pap began his studies by using milk in the normal way to “reward” the babies and so teach them to carry out some simple movements, such as turning the head to one side or the other. Then he noticed that a baby who had enough to drink would refuse the milk but would still go on making the learned response with clear signs of pleasure. So he began to study the children’s responses in situations where no milk was provided. He quickly found that children as young as four mont hs would learn to turn their heads to right or left if the movement “switched on” a display of lights - and indeed that they were capable of learning quite complex turns to bring about this result, for instance, two left or two right, or even to make as many as three turns to one side.Pap’s light display was placed directly in front of the babies and he made the interesting observation that sometimes they would not turn back to watch the lights closely although they would “smile and bubble” when the displ ay came on. Pap concluded that it was not primarily the sight of the lights which pleased them, it was the success they were achieving in solving the problem, in mastering the skill, and that there exists a fundamental human urge to make sense of the world and bring it under intentional control.Questions 6-10 are based on Passage Two.6. According to the author, babies learn to do things which __________.A. are directly related to pleasureB. will meet their physical needs浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第3页共15页C. will bring them a feeling of successD. are good for their psychological development7. Pap noticed in his studies that a baby __________.A. would continue the simple movements even without milkB. would begin to make learned responses even without milkC. would carry out learned movements when it had enough to drinkD. would turn its head to right or left when it had enough to drink8. In Pap’ s experiment babies make learned movements of the head in order to __________.A. be praisedB. please the researcherC. be rewarded with milkD. have the lights turned on9. The babies would “smile and bubble” at the lights because __________.A. the sight of the lights was amusingB. they succeeded in “switching on” the lightsC. they didn’ t need to turn back to watch the lightsD. the lights went on and off quickly10. According to Pap, the pleasure babies get in achieving something is a reflection of __________.A. a basic human desire to understand and control the worldB. the satisfaction of certain physiological needsC. their strong desire to solve complex problemsD. a fundamental human urge to display their learned skillsPassage ThreeWhen trying to understand why some people have trouble living within their means, we tend to blame factors such as high interest rates and irresponsible spending. Now researchers have found another possible factor to add to the list: a gene linked to credit-card debt.Earlier work has shown that genetics plays a role in how we handle money. But a recent study was the first to show that a particular gene affects financial behavior outside the lab. Researchers at the University of California, San Diego, and the London School of Economics looked at genetic data and questionnaires already collected from more than 2,000 young adults aged 18 to 26 as part of the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health. In particular, they浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第4页共15页looked at whether these young adults said they had any credit-card debt and what version of the MAOA gene they had.Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) (甲型单胺氧化酶) is an enzyme that breaks down the signaling chemicals called neuro-transmitters in the brain. Previous studies have linked the low-efficiency versions of the MAOA gene - the variants that cause less MAOA to be produced by brain cells - to impulsiveness.In the new study, people with one “low” MAOA gene and one “high” MAOA gene reported having credit-card debt 7.8 percent more often than did people with two “high” versions, the researchers found, even when they controlled for factors such as education and socioeconomic status. For people with two “low” versions of the gene, that number jumped to 15.9 percent.The researchers were surprised by the magnitude of the difference. “The effect is almost as big as financial litera cy,” meaning people’ s ability to digest complicated financial information, says Jan-Emmanuel de Neve, an author of the study.But, de Neve cautions, an individual’ s version of the MAOA gene does not predict whether he or she is carrying debt. The gene affects credit-card debt the way other genes have been found to play a role in breast cancer: a particular version of the gene increases risk, but many other genetic and environmental factors are important, too.Questions 11-15 are based on Passage Three.11. The recent study has found that __________.A. credit-card debt is mainly attributed to high interest ratesB. reckless spending is a major cause of a person’ s debtC. young adults tend to spend more money than they earnD. whether we overspend or not is probably determined by a particular gene12. What have earlier studies proved?A. The way we deal with money is related to our genetic features.B. A particular gene affects financial behavior outside the lab.C. Adolescents’genetic grouping affects their health.D. Too much MAOA may cause someone to behave impulsively.13. What does MAOA refer to?A. A neuro-transmitter.B. A gene.浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第5页共15页C. An enzyme.D. A brain cell.14. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. People with two different MAOA genes run a greater risk of carrying debt than those with two low MAOA genes.B. How much MAOA can be produced by brain cells depends on what versions of MAOA genes a person has.C. People with two high MAOA genes are less likely to make ends meet than those with two different MAOA genes.D. How much MAOA can be produced by brain cells is related to how many MAOA genes a person has.15. According to the last paragraph, what does de Neve want to clarify about their research findings?A. Different genes play different roles: one type of gene can’ t take the place of other genes.B. The same gene that affects credit-card debt may also increase the risk of breast cancer.C. The low version of MAOA gene is bound to leave people heavily in debt.D. The low version of MAOA gene alone may not necessarily result in overspending.Passage FourPublic health experts have long been skeptical about the beneficial effect of pets on the health of their owners. After all, dogs bite and pass on parasites, and pigeons and parrots cause lung disease. However, in 1991, researchers at the University of Cambridge in Britain discovered that a short time after acquiring a cat or a dog, some people suffer less from health problems such as headache, backache and flu. It was also announced recently that Australians who keep pets tend to have less cholesterol in their blood than non-pet owners with comparable lifestyles, making them less likely to develop heart disease.For the time being, the findings are little more than puzzling correlations. Why should owning a pet make you less likely to suffer from backache? Why should it reduce your cholesterol level? Many researchers suspect that answers will be found in the subtle links between mental and physical well-being. If the newly discovered correlations between human health and pet ownership can be confirmed, they are likely to trigger fresh research on the psychological and physiological effects of keeping pets.浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第6页共15页The hint that pets could help some people to live longer came from a discovery made over a decade ago. Erica Friedmann, working at the University of Maryland in the United States, investigated whether a person’s social life and degree of social isolation might influence their ability to survive a heart attack. Friedmann interviewed 92 recovering male patients and quizzed them in detail about their lifestyle, a few questions touching upon pets. A year later fourteen of the 92 men had died. Friedmann went back to her data to look for differences between those who had and those who had not survived. She found that socially isolated people were more likely to fall victim, and that those who had pets were more likely to recover.Or the explanation is that pets can provide owners with a special kind of emotional support which is lacking or at least uncommon in relationships between people. An animal’ s muteness is a benefit, not a burden. The problem with language is that although we use it to communicate the deepest thoughts and emotions, we also use it to deceive, misinform, criticize and insult others. The fact that pets listen and seem to understand, but do not question or evaluate, may be one of their most endearing assets as companions. It resembles the relationships some psychotherapists try to build.Questions 16-20 are based on Passage Four.16. For a long time doctors have been doubtful if __________ .A. animals make good petsB. pets help spread diseasesC. pets have good effects on their owners’healthD. happy pets rarely suffer from heart disease17. Researchers in Britain have now found that pet owners __________ .A. rarely experience headache, backache and fluB. suffer only from minor health problemsC. have little cholesterol in their bloodD. are usually free from heart disease18. One well-established belief among researchers is that __________ .A. one’ s mental state has nothing to do with his physical well-beingB. people who keep pets have no chance of getting heart diseaseC. pets bring about health hazards to their owners浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第7页共15页D. one’ s mental state has much to do with his physical health19. Friedmann’ s investigation suggests that __________ .A. pets help the owners survive their diseasesB. isolated people outnumber pet owners in developing a heart diseaseC. owning a pet actually cures the owner’ s diseasesD. pets make little difference for patients’recovery20. What makes pets good companions?A. They are able to express the deepest feelings.B. They just listen quietly without any comments.C. They do not show signs of stress themselves.D. They can resemble human emotions.Passage FiveConcern about individual privacy on the Internet has been rising. E-commerce continues to grow, but many online shoppers are concerned about how their personal information is being or might be used. According to a Harris poll, many people do not shop online because of this concern, and of those who do shop online, 41% say they are very concerned about how a company uses their personal information. Now a clear majority of Americans - 57% - favor some sort of laws regulating how personal information is collected and used. Just as people are angry at intrusions into their physical space, they now want to protect the privacy of their virtual space.For most companies, the Web can be a vast source of information about customers. Each buying that a user conducts on a Web site, from a single click to an actual online purchase, can be stored and analyzed. A company can learn about visitors to its Web site through “cookies”, which are small data files that the site creates on the first visit and stores in the user’s computer. A cookie contains a unique tracking number, which enables sites to “remember” users on all subsequent visits. When you visit a site, it places electronic bits of data in your computer that tell the site a lot about you: what your e-mail address is, which portions of a Web site you looked at, what purchases you made, and so on. Many people do not even know that these “cookies” are being placed into their computers. Privacy advocates point out that if Web profiles ever became available for sale on the open market, such information could be used against people. For example, someone might not be hired for a future job if it became known that he or she had sought certain浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第8页共15页health advice on the Web. Or let’ s say a customer has purchased a lot of ice cream and wine on the Web. An insurance company could use that information against the person, assuming he or she would be a candidate for high cholesterol or alcoholism, and refuse to provide insurance. Questions 21-25 are based on Passage Five.21. Many people refuse to do on-line shopping because they are afraid that __________.A. the quality of the product they buy cannot be guaranteedB. their personal information might be illegally usedC. the goods they buy cannot be delivered in timeD. the goods they buy will be lost during delivery22. What’s the meaning of “virtual” at the end of paragraph one?A. Of particles with extremely short lifetimes.B. Nearly as described but not completely.C. Not physically existing but produced by a computer.D. Of points where rays meet if produced backward.23. A company can collect the personal information of shoppers visiting its Web site__________ .A. through small data files established in the user’ s computerB. the first time an online shopper uses a unique tracking numberC. when the shopper conducts a transaction onlineD. from Web profiles bought on the market24. What is the major function of “cookies”?A. To store visitors’information on the web site.B. To record a tracking number of each visitor.C. To inform users on all their visits.D. To tell the site a lot about the visitors.25. The fact that an online shopper buys a lot of ice cream __________ .A. may indicate his economic statusB. may make it harder for him to get insuranceC. may suggest his brand preferenceD. may reveal the web sites he often visits浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第9页共15页II. Vocabulary (10 points, 1 point for each)Directions: Scan the following passage and find the words which have roughly the same meanings as those given below. The number in the brackets after each word definition refers to the number of paragraph in which the target word is. Write the word you choose on the Answer Sheet.By far, the most vulnerable older persons are women, who are more likely than men to lack basic literacy and numerical skills, less likely to have paid work, and less likely to be eligible for pensions - where they are available. When women are eligible for pension, because of their lower pay and interrupted work histories, they are likely to receive lower pensions. Older women who have lost their partners greatly outnumber their male counterparts. In some countries, widows are often denied access to or control over resources. Also, women’s inheritance rights are poorly established in many societies. For these and other reasons, women, especially in developing countries, are much more likely to sink into poverty in their older years. Security schemes to alleviate poverty must take into account that most of the older poor are women, of whom many have limited experience in the labor force.The demand for new skills and knowledge places older workers at a disadvantage, as their training and skills developed earlier in life become obsolete. But age discrimination compounds many of the difficulties older workers face in the labor market. Biased attitudes hamper the efforts of older workers to find new employment and discourage employers from providing them with training. However, there is evidence that prejudices against the abilities of older workers are unfounded, and that the average difference in work performance between age groups is significantly less than the differences between workers within each age group.Training and education are particularly important in helping older workers to adapt to changing demand and opportunities. Lifelong learning, which is increasingly recommended by social policy experts, is an important cultural and economic asset. Implicit in the concept of lifelong learning is the rejection of a society structured on the basis of age, in which education and training are one-time undertakings experienced only early in life.26. open to emotional or physical danger or harm (Para. 1)浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第10页共15页27. the ability to read and write (Para. 1)28. qualified, suitable (Para. 1)29. make something more bearable or less severe (Para. 1)30. out-of-date, not used any more (Para. 2)31. makes a problem or difficult situation worse; worsens (Para. 2)32. prevent the free movement, action, or progress of (Para. 2)33. biased and unreasonable opinions or feelings (Para. 2)34. suggested but not communicated directly (Para. 3)35. tasks or projects (Para. 3)III. Summarization (20 points, 2 points for each)Directions: In this part of the test, there are ten paragraphs. Each of the paragraphs is followed by an incomplete phrase or sentence which, summarizes the main idea of the paragraph. Spell out the missing letters of the word on your Answer Sheet.Paragraph OneCaring for people is one area where the states of Eastern Europe are far in advance of other parts of the world. Most medical and social services are provided free, and in some countries workers do not even have to make contributions to the health and insurance funds, since these contributions are made by the employer.36.In Eastern Europe, people can usually enjoy very good medical and social s_____________ . Paragraph TwoSome pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.37. Possible p___________ of automobiles.Paragraph ThreeIn the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground 浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第11页共15页vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. These are called smart buildings.38. Different ways to i__________ quake-resistance of a building.Paragraph FourCommon interests appear to be a significant factor in selecting friends. Very close and trusted friends share faith in each other. They feel secure that they will not be ridiculed, and their faith will be respected. Betraying a trust is a very quick and painful way to terminate a friendship. 39. Common faith helps k_________ friendship.Paragraph FiveThere are a large number of dieting programs to be found online, each promising you significant weight loss. Experts warn people against going for any and every diet program. If your diet is too strict you might harm your health. Your motive should be to lose weight in a healthy way.40. Strict dieting is an u__________ way of losing weight.Paragraph SixLove and knowledge led me upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Children in famine, helpless old people and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to destroy the evil, but I can’ t and I too suffer.41. S___________ is one of the essential qualities of the speaker.Paragraph SevenIt is important to remember that all children who live through a divorce do not react in the same way. Self-blame virtually disappears after the age of 6, fear of abandonment diminishes after the age of 8, and the confusion and fear of the young child is replaced in the older child by shame, anger, and self-reflection.42. There is some r_____________ between age and children’ s characteristic reaction to divorce. Paragraph EightKnowing our genetic makeup can help us gauge whether or not we may be stricken by a particular illness, such as cancer. Even before birth, we are able to do genetic screenings to 浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第12页共15页determine what a child’s genetic disorders will be. In addition to predicting genetic predispositions toward diseases, gene therapies may provide new treatments or cures for serious diseases.43. Great progress in g___________ engineering.Paragraph NineThe US Federal Reserve raised American interest rates last night for a thirteenth time in a row and signaled that, while it remains set to push them still higher, its 18-month campaign of increases will start to wind down next year.44. This year’ s repeatedly rising interest rates will probably f____________ next year. Paragraph TenProbably the most primitive reason for teenage rebelliousness is physical in nature. At about the beginning of adolescence, children are undergoing profound hormonal changes as their bodies go through puberty. Their bodies are telling them that they are no longer children, and yet their parents are still treating them as children.45. Reasons why teenagers r_____________ their parents.IV. Translation. (20 points, 4 points for each)Directions: In the following passage, there are five groups of underlined sentences. Read the passage carefully and translate these sentences into Chinese. Write the Chinese version on your Answer Sheet.Our society is consumer oriented - dangerously so. To keep the wheels of industry turning, we manufacture consumer goods in endless quantities, and, in process, are rapidly exhausting our natural resources. But this is only half the problem. What do we do with manufactured products when they are worn out? They must be disposed of. Unsightly junkyards full of rusting automobiles already surround every city in the nation. Americans throw away 80 billion bottles and cans each year, enough to build more than ten stacks to the moon.It wasn’ t always like this. 46. Only 100 years ago man lived in harmony with nature. There weren’ t so many people then and their wants were fewer. Whatever waste were produced could be absorbed by nature and were soon covered over. Today this harmonious relationship is threatened by man’ s lack of foresight and planning, and by his carelessness and greed. For man is 浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第13页共15页slowly poisoning his environment.Pollution is a “dirty” word. To pollute means to contaminate - to spoil something by introducing impurities which make it unfit or unclean to use. Pollution comes rn many forms. We see it, smell it, taste it, drink it, and stumble through it. 47. We literally live in and breathe pollution, and, not surprisingly, it is beginning to threaten our health, our happiness and our very civilization .Once we thought of pollution as meaning simply smog - the choking, stinging, dirty air that hovers over cities. But air pollution, while it is still the most dangerous, is only one type of contamination among several which attack the most basic life function.Through the uncontrolled use of insecticides, man has polluted the land, killing the wildlife. By dumping sewage and chemicals into rivers and lakes, we have contaminated our drinking water. 48. We are polluting the ocean, too, killing the fish and thereby depriving ourselves of an invaluable food supply.Part of the problem is our exploding population. More and more people produce more wastes. But this problem is intensified by our “throw-away” technology. Each year Americans dispose of 7 million autos, 20 million tons of waste paper, 25 million pounds of toothpaste tubes and 48 million cans. We throw away gum wrappers, newspapers, and paper plates. It is easier and cheaper to buy a new one and discard the old, even though 95 percent of its parts may still be functioning. Baby’ s diapers, which used to be made of reusable cloth, are now paper throwaways. 49. Soon we will wear clothing made of paper: “Wear it once and throw it away,” will be the slogan of the fashion conscious.Where is this all to end? Are we turning the world into a gigantic dump, or is there hope that we can solve the pollution problem? Fortunately, solutions are in sight. A few of them are positively ingenious.Take the problem of discarded automobiles, for instance. Each year over 40,000 of them are abandoned in New York City alone. Eventually the discards end up in a junkyard. But cars are too bulky to ship as scrap to a steel mill. They must first be flattened. 50. This is done in a giant compressor which can reduce a Cadillac to the size of a television set in a matter of minutes. Any leftover scrap metal is mixed with concrete and made into exceptionally strong bricks that are浙00596# 英语阅读（二）试卷第14页共15页。

浙江10月自考英语写作试题及答案解析

浙江省2018年10月自学考试英语写作试题课程代码：10053Task 1. Supply the missing introduction (20%)Directions: Study the following passage carefully and write an introduction in no more than 100 words. Make sure that the tone and vocabulary you use are in unity with the passage provided.Various Kinds of Lectures____________Talks on current issues come first. Nowadays, even though college students concern much about events happening across the country and the globe, due to the lack of experience and limited vision, our views may not be mature. The well-read teachers speak on some hot domestic or international issues, such as the international significance of the return of Hong Kong and the re-election of Clinton. They present the latest information and facts from diversified sources, analyze them and give personal comments on them. Their interpretation is less dogmatic than what we hear over the mass media. The lectures on current issues and events attract most of the grades.Tips on English studies are closely related to our major courses. These lectures usually deal with a single aspect of the English language. For example, in the lecture entitled “The stress and stress shift in English,”the lecturer discussed the stress problems in English pronunciation and explained some basic principles on how to stress a two-yllable or a multi-syllable word. After attending the lecture, we feel more confident about the stress of English words. Likewise, several lectures on common errors in English usage clarified our confusion on synonyms. Lectures of this kind serve as complements to our academic courses and help to reinforce the knowledge we learn in class. Both the sophomores and freshmen are the frequent attendants of these lectures.As English majors, the better acquainted we are with the English and American society, the easier it becomes for us to learn the language well. Cultural notes are lectures providing diversified background information on western society. They cover a broad range of topics, including music, sports, religion, and etiquette and daily lives of the people in English-speaking countries. This kind of one-hour presentation enjoys great popularity among students. Once a lecture captioned “American Country Music”even createda sensation on the campus. The lecture room that evening was virtually packed. All the students remainedfervently faithful even during the blackout in the middle of the lecture. Both the lecture and the music the teacher played refreshed us; not only did we get knowledge but also entertainment. Cultural notes are welcomed by both freshmen and grades.Short as they are, these lectures offer much background knowledge and information beyond textbooks, sharpening our language skills, deepening our understanding of western culture and society. Compared with the regular classes we have everyday, these mini lectures are more relaxing and more lively. As the attendance is not compulsory, we can choose the ones we are particularly interested in. Therefore, we concentrate better and get more out of the lectures. As a plus, they offer us a chance to taste different teaching styles of the speakers.Task 2. Write an outline (20%)Directions: Read the following passage carefully and try to compose an outline for the passage provided.Why I Came to CollegeWhy have I chosen to attend college? I have put this question to myself many times and in various forms during the past three and a half months which have constituted the first semester of my freshman year.Have I come because of the influence from my parents, or because I have some goal of my own that I wish to pursue? After pondering these questions on many occasions, I have finally reached the conclusion that I have come to college not just for one reason, but for many.Originally, my parents did influence my opinions about education in general. My mother, an elementary school teacher, was always proud of my academic successes, but she never really pushed me or demanded thatI achieve excellent grades. However, from the beginning of my schooling, my parents seemed to assume that Iwould attend college, and by the time I reached high school, I had become accustomed to that idea as well.When I entered high school, I enrolled in the college preparatory program offered there, looking forward to college life. In truth, at that time I was more concerned about the challenges to be presented to me in high school than about thoughts of what would follow in college. However, as I proceeded further through high school into my junior and senior years, I became genuinely interested in many of the subjects which I was studying. Chemistry, Physics, and Calculus were the courses which held my interest most strongly and I felt that I wanted to continue to study those areas beyond the high school level. Up to that point in my life, I had always claimed that I wanted to attend college, but I never truly knew why.As my high school career drew to a close, I was beginning to recognize in myself a strong drive for knowledge. I knew that I would not be content to simply end my educational career with high school and enter the working world. I truly felt a need to continue learning in order to gain a better understanding of the world around me. My final decision to attend college seemed a natural one, and my choice of engineering as a field of study came easily as well, since the profession fit well with my academic preferences.The fact that I enjoy learning and gaining knowledge was the main reason for choosing to enter college, but I must admit that it was not the sole reason. In today's world, a college education has become almost essential if one wishes to compete in the job market. In the next several years, this trend will surely continue, with a bachelor's degree becoming almost indispensable if one wishes to find a respectable position, and a master's degree becoming highly desirable for advanced positions. Although it may sound materialistic, I felt that attending college was a practical and necessary step to ensure a secure future for myself and my family. I made my choice to study engineering primarily on the basis of my love of mathematics and the physical sciences; however, the fact that it is a well paying and respected profession did have some influence on my final decision to study engineering, rather than a pure science curriculum. Either field would have allowed me to study those subjects which hold my interest, but the decision to pursue the one which would ultimately be more profitable was not a difficult choice to make.A third reason that I am attending college is that I have always hoped that I could, in some way, makecontributions to the world. I knew that a career involving science and technology would give me the best opportunity to do this. I also knew that in order to pursue such a career, I would be required to go through college. Hopefully, this will someday enable me to make contributions to the expansion of the frontiers of science, and in some way to benefit mankind.Finally, I chose to attend a diversified college, as opposed to a purely technical institute, because I feel that college should allow a person to grow in areas other than pure academics. It should also expose the student to a variety of social and political ideas, helping to expand his mental horizons. Attending Qinghua University has definitely allowed me to come into contact with a wide variety of lifestyles which could only be found together on a collegiate campus. Additionally, while I am able to major in a scientific field at Qinghua, I am able to simultaneously take courses which explore other fields of study and allow me to become a more diversified and well-rounded person. This overall gain of general knowledge, which is available only to college students, is another reason that I was lured toward the pursuit of a higher education.Thus, I came to college not for one reason, but for several different ones. It was something which I had planned, even without fully knowing why, for several years. It was certainly the next logical step in my educational career after the completion of high school. However, only in my final two years of high school did I actually begin to recognize in myself the inherent desire to obtain information and learning which pushed me toward college. I knew that a college degree would allow me to pursue the other goals which I had set for myself. 1 also knew that I wanted to become a more diversified person, and that a college education was the best means to attain that end.Why have I chosen to attend college? Sometimes I am unsure of the exact reason myself. I am sure, however, that it is what I should do and what I want to do with the next four years of my life.Task 3.

Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. Read the following passages and choose the best answers from the three choices marked A, B, C and D. Then write your answers on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Waste can be seen everywhere in the school. Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources, we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.16. From the passage we know that some students often _______ in the school. [单选题] *A. eat too muchB. don’t work hardC. waste thingsC. waste things (正确答案)D. throw rubbish everywhere17. 17. Which is not mentioned in this passage? [单选题] *A. Fresh water.B. Forest. (正确答案)C. Oil.D. Coal.18. What may happen in 100 years? [单选题] *A. We may still have enough oilB. We may still have enough coal.C. We may have a little oil.D. We may have no coal or oil to use.(正确答案)19. Which of the following is right? [单选题] *A. Waste brings problems. (正确答案)B. Waste can bring no problem.C. China is rich in fresh water.D. Students never waste things.20. Which is the best title of this passage? [单选题] *A. Stop Wasting(正确答案)B. School lifeC. Waste in the SchoolD. Rich Resources in ChinaPassage 2Napoga is a 12-year-old girl in Ghana(加纳), Africa. It is hard for her family to get clean water. Every morning, she leaves home at half past five to get clean water for her familyin a village far away. It takes her six hours to get enough clean water for daily cooking and drinking. She has no time to go to school or to play with her friends. Millions of people in the world are like Napoga. They can’t get enough clean water to keep healthy.Earth Day is April 22. But on all other days, we must also remember it. The water we use is the most important natural resource on the earth.Water covers 70% of the earth’s surface. But most of that is sea water. We can’t use it for very many things. Fresh water covers only 1% of the earth’s surface.You probably feel lucky that your life isn’t as hard as Napoga’s. But that doesn’t mean you don’t have to worry about water. We all face serious water problems. One of them is water pollution. All kinds of things from cars, factories, farms and homes make our rivers, lakes, and oceans dirty. Polluted water is very bad for people to drink. And dirty water is bad for fish, too. Now, 34% of all kinds of fish are dying out.How do cars and factories make our water dirty? First, they pollute the air. Then, when it rains, the rain water comes down and makes our drinking water dirty. Dirty rain, called acid rain, is also bad for plants, animals and buildings.Scientists say that in 30 years, more than half of the people in the world won’t have enough clean water. We have to learn how to save more water for ourselves and our children. Here is some advice for saving water:●Turn off the water while you brush your teeth. You can save as much as 450 liters each month.●Leaky taps waste a lot of water. Fix them right away!●You can easily cut your 10-minute showers in half—and you’ll be just as clean.●When you wash dishes, don’t let the water run.●Only wash clothes when you have a lot to wash. If your washing machine isn’t full, you’re wasting water!21. Every morning Napoga went to get clean water _______. [单选题] *A. before she went to schoolB. after she finished schoolC without going to school(正确答案)D. after she played with her friends22. On the earth, _______. [单选题] *A. sea water is widely used than fresh waterB. there is very little water for our living(正确答案)C. there is 71% of fresh waterD. we don’t need to worry about water23. Acid rain _______. [单选题] *A. is only bad for living thingsB. can be produced in factoriesC. doesn’t do harm to people, but it’s bad for plants, animals and buildingsD. doesn’t just do harm to human beings but to animals, plants and buildings(正确答案)24. Which of the following wastes water? [单选题] *A. We need ten minutes if we want a clean shower.(正确答案)B. We should put in enough clothes when we wash them in washing machines.C. You can keep yourself clean by having a shower for five minutes.D. Don’t let the water run when we brush our teeth and wash dishes.25. What’s the main idea of the passage? [单选题] *A. Something must be done to prevent water from being polluted.B. Clean water means much to human beings and living things around usC. It’s time to take care of the water we use.(正确答案)D. Water is the most important natural resource on the earth.Passage 3Visitors exploring one of Britain's many historic buildings might expect to see beautiful objects and learn more about history. What they won’t expect is to meet one of the former residents，and to be able to talk to them about their life and times. But，don’t worry. Although many old buildings are said to be frequently visited by ghosts(幽灵），these people are not ghosts at all.All across Britain historic sites will be brought to life by real people. They will be dressed in period costumes ( clothes worn in an earlier time in history) and will recreate life as it was once lived at different times during Britain’s history. Activities like these are called “living history”，and have become increasingly popular in recent years.An organization named English Heritage, which maintains historic buildings and sites across England, will organize over 500 living history events, ranging from reenactment (再次展现）of battles to traditional story-telling for children.The people who dress up in costumes and take part in these events come from all kinds of backgrounds. Some are trained actors, while others do it as a hobby. What they all have in common, however, is that they do not simply “act”. Instead, they learn about every aspect of the period they are bringing to life — everything from the way people behaved to the way they spoke.26. What may a visitor expect to see in a “living history” activity? [单选题] *A. Beautiful objects.B. Historic events brought to life.(正确答案)C. Local residents.D. Old buildings visited by ghosts.27. One of the main purposes of English Heritage is to help visitors_____________. [单选题] *A. to explore ancient battle fieldsB. to protect ancient buildings(正确答案)C. to learn about British historyD. to meet former residents28. English Heritage will do all of the following EXCEPT _________________. [单选题] *A. have all visitors dressed in costumes (正确答案)B. take care of historic buildingsC. organize many living history eventsD. keep historic sites in good condition29. The people who take part in a “living history” event must ____________. [单选题] *A. play roles like actorsB. have a common interestC. behave and speak the way the local residents doD. know everything about the period brought to life(正确答案)30. The best title for this passage should be _______________. [单选题] *A. Touring in Britain TodayB. Exploring Historic SitesC. Experiencing History(正确答案)D. 500 Living History EventsPassage 4At present, it seems impossible to visit the satellites of other stars in search of life. Our present theories of physics indicate that it is impossible to move at a -peed greater than that of light. Even at such a speed it would take many years to reach the nearest star that might have planets. Most of such stars are many lifetimes away.Perhaps someday we shall invent ways of travelling or sending messages that will allow man to find other living things in the universe.Even more interesting is the possibility that they may find us! If the steady-state theory of the universe is correct, there must be many “solar systems” that are much older than ours. On some of these, intelligent life may have evolved (进化) long ago. If so, these creatures might be exploring the universe today.Serious scientific projects in recent years have been studying the skies with radio telescopes, hoping to find signals sent by such intelligent beings. It has been suggested that the puzzling quasars （类星体） might be the wakes ( 航迹 ) left by spaceships travelling faster than light.Thus far, we have found no definite evidence of other intelligent life in the universe. Perhaps we never shall. Yet the search and the hope will remain an exciting possibility for the future.31. Today we cannot visit other stars because________________. [单选题] *A. they have no planets and satellitesB. we cannot travel at the speed of lightC. we need further research in physicsD. they are beyond our travelling distance(正确答案)32. The last sentence in the first paragraph talks about _________________. [单选题] *A. the speed of light travelling in the universeB. The existence of life on other planets.C. the remoteness of other stars(正确答案)D. the shortness of our life33. According to the author, the existence of intelligent life on the planets of other stars is ________. [单选题] *A. a factB. a possibility(正确答案)C. a discoveryD. a mystery34. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to this passage? [单选题] *A. Attempts have been made to find life on other planets.(正确答案)B. It seems unlikely that life exists on other planets.C. Intelligent beings from other planets have visited the earthD. Spaceships have been launched by other intelligent beings.35. As for the evidence of other intelligent life in the universe, the author of the passage believes that in the future _______________. [单选题] *A. we shall give up hope and stop searching for itB. these creatures will send us signals to confirm itC. it is definitely impossible for us humans to find ItD. it is possible for us humans to continue to search for it(正确答案)Passage 5Bill Fulton doesn’t remember losing his wallet, but its return helped him remember the pa st. The leather stayed smooth and the cowboy design unblemished. And when he looked i nside, the contents brought back memories from 1946, when he apparently dropped the w allet behind the balcony bleachers in the Baker Middle School gym.Fulton’s Social Security Card and bicycle license, bearing the address where he lived duri ng his teenage years, were positioned in their respective compartments, apparently untouc hed since the year after World War Π ended. Worker Nathan Osborne found the wallet — along with old homework, lost library books and a 1964 talent show program —while removing the bleachers for renovations on June 17. It was brought to Fulton’s doo r the following day by Melanie Trindle, the Baker Middle School secretary.Middle School Principal Mindi Vaughan said the brown pine bleachers were connected to the gym balcony’s brick wall and had remained in the same place since the school, kno wn as the Helen M. Stack Building, opened in 1936. Fulton, 78, said he probably lost the wallet while cheering for the Baker High basketball team with a group of friends. Fulton said the bicycle ID was needed because he delivered medicine for Rodamar Drug.He was surprised, however, that his bicycle ID wasn’t inside. He said he always kept it th ere.But rather than focus on what was inside the wallet, Fulton said the recovery has led him to reflect on his life —one that took him to the Korean War and Berlin before the return to Baker City. He work ed at Ellingson Lumber Company for 30 years, from March 1964 to April 1994.Since his retirement, Fulton has enjoyed spending time with his 11-year-old black dog, Smokey. The two often hike the nearby mountains.Trindle’s knock on the door, wallet in hand, induced a slight ripple in his life, prompting him to consider the times he hadn’t thought about in many years.“Where did all the times go？” Fulton said with a deep sigh. “It’ s hard to believe that the times have gone so fast.”36. When the wallet was found, it________. [单选题] *A. was still in good condition (正确答案)B. was a little damagedC. had just lost colorD. was just repaired37. The wallet was important to Fulton because ________. [单选题] *A. he could get his bicycle ID backB.it called up his memories of the past (正确答案)C.it could help him to find his student IDD.it made him think of his school days38. Fulton lost the wallet when________. [单选题] *A. he was doing his homework on the balcony bleachersB. he was doing some exercise in the Baker Middle School gymC. he was removing the bleachers for renovations on June 17D. he was watching a basketball match with his friends(正确答案)39. After he retired, Fulton________. [单选题] *A. lived a peaceful and pleasant life (正确答案)B. often regretted losing his walletC. lived a hard life by raising dogs in the mountainsD. quite missed his past life40.Which of the following best describes Fulton’s feeling when the wallet was returned? [单选题] *A. Thankful.B. Overjoyed.C. Surprised. (正确答案)D. Doubtful.。

浙江省2018年10月自学考试英语写作试题课程代码：10053Ⅰ. Supply the missing paragraph. (20 points)The following passage is incomplete with the ending paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully and write the paragraph in no more than 100 words. Make sure your tone and diction are in unity with the passage provided.Living in the PresentAbout one of man’s frailties（弱点）Thomas Wolfe wrote, “he talks of the future and he wastes it as it comes.”This observation is related to a principle by which I try (without always succeeding) to live. I believe in living in the present because it is futile（无用的）to dwell on the past, to worry about the future, or to miss anything in the only reality I know.It is futile to dwell on the past. What existed or happened in the past may have been beautiful or exciting and may now bring profound and precious memories; but the past is dead, and it is not healthy for living spirits to linger over a world inhabited by ghosts. The past may also be a place of horror, of regret, of spilled milk, of unfortunate deeds that “cannot be done”, of sad words like “might have been”. However, it is painful and pointless to fixate on a period that cannot be relived or repaired. It is unproductive self-punishment. The past must be kept in its place, outlived and outgrown.It is also useless to worry about the future. Why fly to heaven before it is time? What anxious visions haunt the person who thinks too much about the future? He may imagine his own life going awry, appointments missed; advancements given to someone else; his house burned to the ground; his love lost; everything in his life as in a nightmare, slipping away from him. There is no end to the disasters a person can worry about when he focuses anxiously on the future. There are events in his future, including his own demise, over which he has little or no control, but he can ruin his life worrying about them. There are some disasters he may be able to prevent, but he must do that by living well in the present, not simply by worrying about the future.The present moment, which is even now moving into the past, is the reality I know, and I don’t want to miss it. The wild-cherry cough drop dissolving in my mouth is sweet and soothing. Even my sore throat and back-ache have meaning. The cool night air, the crackling noises of my furnace, my cat yawning and stretching——these are the tangible realities I can recognize. They exist in this moment, together with my own breathing, the warm lamp overhead, the jerking of my typewriter. Along with these are the realities of other people and of all life on this earth, which is important to me now, not at some past or future time.Ⅱ. Write an outline. (20 points)Read the following passage carefully and compose a “sentence outline”for it.Missing outWhy does a person turn into a workaholic? Ever since George Ramirez took over his father’s store last year, he’s done nothing but work. He arrives at the store by seven in the morning and doesn’t leave until eight at night. He does paperwork at home every evening and spends most Saturdays and Sundays at the store as well. George is a man who has made work his sole priority and has lost sight everything else of value.George rarely allows himself a free moment to do anything other than work. He used to read books, play cards, and go biking. Now the only reading he does is work related, and the only activities he participates in involve invoices, purchase orders, and store inventory.George has abandoned his friends. For example, he used to play basketball in a local gym once or twice a week with two old buddies. He hasn’t seen or even spoken to either one for months. Even Daniel, his closest friend, rarely talks with George anymore. When Daniel phones him at the store, George’s assistant intercepts the call. Tell him I’ll call back later, George tells his assistant, but he seldom does.Most disturbing of all, George has forgotten the meaning of family. His working hours leave him little time to spend with his wife, and even less to spend with his two children. In fact, in some respects his wife and children feel and act as though theirs is a one-parent family. Family activities such as going to the playground, checking homework, and visiting the library or a museum have all become exclusively his wife’s domain. George’s children no longer expect his presence or participation and seem surprised on those rare occasions when their father is around.George is neglecting himself, his friends, and his family. Whatever internal demons have been driving him to work so fanatically is also pushing him away from the simple joys of life and, more important, from the people who love him. George used to say, “Call me, and I’ll be there.”Now he’s never “there”anymore. It’s not just his friends and children who are hurt by his absence. I miss George too. I miss my husband.Ⅲ.
