If you hired someone to do house hold work and you were able to control what they did and how they did it, you had a household employee; this is true even if you gave the employee freedom for action. What matters is that you had the right to controlthe details of how the work was done. For example, you paid Betty Oak to babysit(临时照看孩⼦)your child and do light homework 4days a weak in your home. Betty followed your specific instructions about household and child care duties. You provided the household equipment and supplies Betty needed to do her work. Betty is your household employee. Household work is done in or around your home. Some examples of workers who do household work are: babysitters, caretakers, cleaning people, drivers, health aides(助⼿), housekeepers, private nurses, yard workers.If a worker is your employee, it does not matter whether the work is full or part time or whether you hired the worker through an agency or from a list provided by an agency or association. Also, it does not matter if the wages paid are for work done hourly, daily, weekly, or by the job.Cash wages include wages paid by checks, money orders, etc. Cash wages do not include value of food, lodging, clothing, or other non-cash items you give a household employee.446. A household employee is someone ______.A) to do work at home and outside itB) you ask for advice about houseworkC) who works in an employment officeD) who is in charge of all families in a community47.

For years scientists have asked themselves this question. Does laughter help us to survive in any way? The answer seems to be like this: smiling and laughter help us relax, reducing tension(紧张) and preventing illnesses which arecaused by stress. Laughter really is the best medicine!But if you are unhappy, it cannot do you any good to smile, can it? Not true. Obviously, the positive effects of smiling are just the same whether you feel like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked a group of actors to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fear just using their faces. Changes in their heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were written down. Most of the feelings they acted did not cause changes, but when the actors smiled their heart rate and their blood pressure went down. So even if we feel sad inside, smiling seems to make us feel better.A sense of humor also helps to keep things on their positive side. Interfering friends or a flat tire (轮胎漏⽓) won’t seem so bad if you can see the funny side. So if you find yourself in a stressful situation, try to imagine how it must seem to an5outside with a sense of humor and let yourself laugh it off. A scientist writes: “If youtry to show a positive reaction and start to laugh, you willactually become happier.”51. According to the writer, laughter and smiling_______.A) protect human beings from heart attacksB) are the main cause for man to live longC) can help people to feel relaxedD) help people to keep good relations52.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ,_______.A) A sense of humor is essential for one to gain successB) Stress may be relieved by smiling even if you are actingC) Laughing is the best way to overcome difficultiesD) Sadness can be covered up by laughter and smiles53. The study of the scientist in California is to find out_________.A) the relations between different human feelingsB) the connection between one’s feeling and actingC) whether other animals can laugh and smileD) whether laughter and smile can be good to man’s health54. The scientist discovered that ________.A) laughter and smiles did help the actors to feel relaxedB) most actors acted well according to his instructionsC) the actors’ feeling s reflected what they really feltD) different feelings have different effects on the actors55. The writer tends to suggest that we should ________.A) face difficulties with great courageB) find out the positive side of thingsC) overcome our sad feeling with a smileD) learn to have a sense of humorYang Cai is now in his sixth job after graduation. He is a computer programmer in a German company in Nanchang.The job also marks the latest of several moves he has made in thelast four years. In that period, he has worked in several cities including Nanchang, Wuhan, and now Nanchang.His first job, also his longest, was for a State-owned enterprise producing communication products and lasted one year. His last job, also his shortest, was in designing web pages and lasted three months.“I am not the most frequent changer of jobs in this industry,” Yang said.“Working in IT (information technology) companies, I have become accustomed to welcoming new colleagues today and to seeing them off the next month.”“I have always been in a turbulent (动荡的) situation, and no job gives me afeeling of stability,”In sharp contrast with Yang, Wendy, a lawyer in the Nanchang branch of a Beijing-based big law firm, dared not ask for a half a day’s leave to go hospital when6she was suffering from a serious cold and cough.“The boss warns us to work 24 hours a day and you would be mad to ask for leave for illness” said Wendy. So she would work until midnight and give herself medicine she bought to work.“It’s not easy to get a suitable position nowadays. The boss can easily replace you with someone from the lines of applicants waiting outside the door for your position.”She said.56. Yang is an employee who_______.A) dislikes to be engaged in challenging workB) seems not to feel sure of his positionC) doesn’t get along well with his colleaguesD) has no interest in the information industry57According to Yang’s experience, workers in the IT companies_______.A) shift their jobs frequentlyB) are young and intelligentC) often complete with each otherD) learn more than those in other fields58 The case with Wendy shows that_________.A) her colleagues are satisfied with their jobsB) law is a less popular field than ITC) she has to work hard to keep the jobD) there are many lawyers59 Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?_______.A) Young people like to change their jobsB) Sex is an important factor in job hunting.C) Bosses want their workers to remain in the same position.D) Different jobs have different comments on their companies.60. This passage is most probably taken from _________.A) a textbookB) an advertisementC) an instruction bookD) a news reportUnemployment may be one of the biggest problems our people as wellas our government are faced with today. According to an official report, in one big city alone, since 1986, nearly 1,000,000 adult workers have lost their jobs because of factory closing and cutbacks either temporarily laid off or permanent forced to retire.Many people, especially the policy makers, believe that forcingadult workers, those who are over 45 to retire is an effective means to relieve the tension of unemployment, for it can provide more job opportunities for the jobless young. But they fail to notice thatforcing a person who is still able to work and has a family to support to retire brings serious financial problems as well as emotional and physical ones. They also fail to realize that actually, workers aged 45-60 tend to be more stable,7more skillful and more experienced than workers of any other ages, that, to some extent, this age is the prime time for one’s productivity and creativity. To force themto retire is a huge waste of the nation’s best resources. On the contrary, if we turn our attention to the other end of the range of ages, a more effective way might appear. Today only 3% school leavers are allowed to go to college, leaving the majority of the young people under 18 without adequate preparation to join the labor force. If, however, more of them are able to attend college and begin fulltime employment at later age, more job opportunities will be created as the number of years that anaverage person works fulltime shrinks.Most importantly, we should not be merely satisfied to solve the problem of unemployment, but rather we should improve the quality of the work force at the same time by keeping the skilled adults and employing the well educated young.61. Forcing middle aged persons to retire might cause ________.A) the loss of valuable resources B) shortage of the work forceC) elderly people to feel upset D) families to be unstable62. The word “prime” in line 7, para .2. most probably means____.A) first B) early C) major D) spring63. Which of the following suggestions did the writer make? ______.A) Young people should work harder in order to go to college.B) Colleges should be open to more high school leavers.C) The old should be allowed to work as long as they want to.D) Policy makers should create more job opportunities.64. What is the writer’s attitude towards the present situation of employment?__A) Concerned B) Hopeless C) Interested D) Satisfied65. The best TITLE for this passage might be ________.A) Should Workers Be Forced To Retire?B) Why Don’t We Educate the Young?C) How to Solve Unemployment Problem?D) Are the Policy Makers Wise?Part IV Translation (66-70 略)Part V ClozeThe head of my daughter’s school said to me, “She may be upto__71___we’retrying to acco mplish.” He was really saying she didn’t have the__72___.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneAll the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Y our Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manage r of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Y our Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! Y ou are our lucky customer and everything yo u have in your basket is free!”61. The housewives learnt about the of free goods _______.A. on TVB. from the managerC. at the supermarketD. from the newspaper62.

Mrs. Edwards went back to the supermarket quickly because she had to _______.A. buy another thingB. talk to the managerC. pay for her shoppingD. find her shopping65. Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.A. pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawledthrough a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66. The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.A. part of a historical cave systemB. the biggest underground lake in the worldC. listed in the Guinness Book of World RecordsD. the largest body of water in Tennessee67. The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A. through historyB. since the time of the Indian nationsC. since 1905D. since divers explored them68. Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?A. The Cherokee Indians.B. Tourists.C. Ben Sands.D. Scientists.69. What was found in “The Council Room”?A. A small natural opening.B. A large cave.C. Another series of rooms.D. Many old Indian objects.70. It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____.A. an underground testing siteB. an Indian meeting groundC. a tourist attractionD. a motor boat race coursePassage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the numbe r of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feelpain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing w rong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A. the year the author wrote the articleB. 1977C. any year between 1997 and 1983D. 198372. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.A. several studies have been done in the past few yearsB. the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC. adults have especially made studies in this fieldD. eating little in the morning is good for health73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance” means ______.A. anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB. not giving people breakfast improve performanceC. having breakfast does not improve performance, eitherD. people having breakfast do improve their performance74. The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______.A. stories, poems, plays, etc.B. written works on a particular subjectC. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America75. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.A. breakfast does not affect performanceB. Dr. Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningC. not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenD. Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生). It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76. College education is _______ in America.A. quite commonB. very rareC. something difficultD. almost impossible77. Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A. entrance examinationsB. taking part in many activitiesC. GPAD. college prep classes78. How can poor studentsattend private schools?A. Only by working at part-time jobs.B. Only by working at full-time jobs.C. Only by earning scholarships.D. All of above.79. The American college students like to _______ most of all.A. discuss problems on philosophyB. play ballsC. earn enough moneyD. go to the cinemas or theatres80. The best title for this passage is _______.A. Part-time jobsB. American collegeC. Popular activityD. A new systemⅤ.

2002年江西省专升本英语统一考试试题Part I Listening comprehension (20 points)Part II Reading Comprehension (30 Points)Directions: In this section there are four passages. Each of them is folded by five questions.

That started a debate over the wisdom of spending billons of dollars to keep nearly 2 million people locked up. According to statistics, the United States ends 1999 with 1,983,084 men and women in prisons. That shows an increase nearly 840,000 prisoners during the 1990s and makes the United States the country with the highest prison population in the world. With the cost of housing a prisoner at about $20,000 a year, the cost in 1999 keeping all these prisoners behind bar is about $39 billion.Some experts argue that the money is well spent, saying the cost of keeping prisoners behind back doesn’t seem much in comparison to the cost of crime to society. They also point out that the rise in the prisoner population in the 1990s coincided with (与……相一致) a steady drop in the US crime rates. It is reported that serious crime has decreased for seven years continuously. “There are a noticeable number of people who don’t do crimes because they don’t want to go to prison,”they say.21.

Enter the homepage (主页) of 8848. net, and you can purchase your various goods via the Internet.The sales of 8848. net last month were 12.5 million yuan, equal to the turnover (营业额) of a middle-sized supermarket.

With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever readinganyone. If my mother has a question, I just leave the answer on her phone.As almost every contact between human beings gets automated (自动的), the more people feel they are strangers to each other.

Why say good morning to the attendant when you can pay with your credit card and save yourself the bother of human contact?Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just insert your credit card into the automatic contact?Pretty soon you won’t have the burden of making eye contact at the food store.

In fact. it 54 looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around 55 . At the far end of the room, somebody56 have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch,57 his hands and said something to the others.Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any, attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office.

We had not suffered much from the war there. But both at home and at school I had be-come accustomed to the phrases " before the war" and "when the war' s over". 'Before the war" .apparently. things had been better, though I was too young to understand why, except that there had been no bombs then, and people had eaten things like ice-cream and bananas. which I had only heard of. When the war was over we would go back to London. but this meant 1iide to me. I did not remember what London was like.What I remember now about VE (Victory in Europe) Day was the May evening. After dinner I said I wanted to see the bonfire (大火堆) . so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street. The bonfire was ver7 high. and somehow people had collected some old clothes to dress the unmistakable figure with the moustache (胡子) they had to put on top of it. Just as we arrived. They set light to it. The flames rose and soon swallowed the "guy". Everyone was cheering and shouting, and an old woman came out of her house with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep it going. I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down. not knowing what to say. He said nothing, either. He had fought in the First World War and may have been remembering the end of that. At last he said. "Well. that' s it. son. Let' s hope that this time it really will be the last one. "66.Where did the author live before the Second World War? _,A. In London.B. In a small town.C. in Europe.D. In the countryside.67. What kind of food had the author certainly not tasted during the war? _,A. Bread.B. Butter.C. Meat.D. Ice cream and bananas.68.

IL has very little oxygen and water; the temperature at night is below -50'C and winds of 100 miles per hour cause severe dust storms. However . the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it some time in the past, and it is believed that there ia enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melts. Although there is no life on the Mars now, some scientists think that there may have been some form of life long time ago. At that time, the planet had active volcanoes; the atmosphere was thicker and warmer; and there was water. In fact, in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth, where life exists.Some people believe that the Mars could support 1ife in the future if the right conditions were produced. The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Sun's heat in the planet's atmosphere. With warmth, water and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) , simple plants could begin to grow. These plants could slowly make the Mars more suitable for living. it is estimated that the whole process might take between 100,000 and 200,000 years. In the meantime. people could been to live on the planet in special closed environments. They would provide a lot of useful information about conditions on the Mars and the problems connected with 1iving there.71. Some scientists think there may have been life on the Mars in the past because _ .A. there is no life there nowB. there is a large amount of water at the polesC. the Mars may be able LO support life in the futureD. conditions may have been similar to those on the Earth72.

The author's attitude towards the possibility of 1ife on the Mars in the future is________A. doubtfulB. positiveC. negativeD. uninterested75. Which is the best title for this passage?A. The Possibility of Life on the MarsB. Future Conditions on the MarsC. The Mars and the EarthD. A Study of the Climate of the MarsPassage FourIt is physically impossible for a well-educated intellectual. or a brave man to make money the chief object of his thoughts ; as physically impossible as it is for him to make his dinner the principal object of them. All healthy people like their dinner, but their dinner is not the main object of their lives. So all healthy-minded people like making money-ought to like it and to enjoy the satisfaction of winning it; but the main object of their lives is not money; it is something betterthan money.A good soldier, for instance, mainly wishes to do his fighting well. He is glad of his pay-very properly so, and just complains when you keep him ten months without it; still. his main opinion of life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them.So of doctors They like fee9 no doubt-ought to like them; yet if they are brave and well educated. the entire object of their lives is not fees. They would rather cure their patient and lose their fees than kill him and get it. And so with all other brave and rightly trained men ; their work is first, their fees second, very important always. but still second.76. The main idea of this passage is that______ .A. money matters more than workB. money is not necessary at allC. money is as important as workD. money comes second to work in importance77. The passage implies that healthy-minded people best enjoyA. the happiness of accomplishing their workB. the satisfaction of making moneyC. the pleasure of having their dinnerD. the fun of fighting battles78. According to the author, a good soldier ..A. dislikes his payB. ignores his payC. ought to enjoy his payD. doesn't complain when kept without pay for months79. The author believes that a good doctor .A. makes money the entire object of his lifeB. places curing his patient above allC. doesn't like making moneyD. enjoys his work only80.

江西专升本统考英语历年真题(2003-2012) 5

2003年江西省“专升本”英语统一考试试卷(120分钟)Part ⅠListening comprehension (20 points)(略)Part ⅡReading Comprehension (30 points)Directions:In this section there are four passages. Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through BritainD) in the countryside in England22.

Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, th eir cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will gobankrupt (破产); that is, it won’t make enou gh money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out of business. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27.

According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutio nD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses’ chance of making profit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operation will soon be gone.In addition to cre ating a favorable business environment, the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.

For each question there are four suggested answers marked A), B), C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.High school graduation --- the bittersweet feelings are as much a part of me now as they were twenty-one years ago.As graduation day approached, excitement increased. Being out of high school meant I was finally coming of age. Soon I would be on my own, making my own decisions, doing what I wanted and it meant going to school with boys---a welcome change coming from an all-girl high school.There was never any question in my mind that I would go to a college away from home. My mother’s idea, on the other hand, was just the opposite. Trying her best not to force her ideas on me, she would subtly (含蓄的)ask whether I had considered particular schools all of which happened to be located in or near my hometown of Chicago. Once it was established that, if it was financially feasible (可行的), I would go away anyway, my family’s ideas changed. Their concern shifted from whether I was going away to how far I would go. The schools I was considering on the East Coast suddenly looked far more attractive than those in California.But which college I would attend was just one of what seemed like a never-ending list of unknowns. What would college be like? Would I be unbearably lonely not knowing anyone else who was going to the same school?…. What if the college 1 selected turned out to be a horrible mistake?Then panic set in. My feelings took a 180 degree rum.21.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the writer according to the passage?A)She graduated from a high school for girls only.B)She wanted to leave home forever.C)Her hometown is on the West Coast.D)Her family was strongly against her leaving home.22.The writer was excited about her graduation because________.A)that means she could go to work away from homeB)that means she would be independentC)she could invite her friends homeD)she would be allowed to go out with boys23.The writer’s mother asked her whether she had considered particular schools because her mother wanted ____________.A)her to try different schools B)her to stay at home C)her to go to an all-girl college D)her to go to a college near home24.The writer would go away from home_____________.A)to find a better university B)if her parents agreed to let her go C)if she had the money D)no matter what might happen to her25.Why did the writer’s feelings take a 180 degree turn in the end? A)Because she was not sure about her college life.B)Because she was lonely in her choice of college.C)Because in fact she was afraid of leaving her family.D)Because the college she selected was a horrible mistake.Quesfions26 to 30 are based on the following passage:Early last season, I wrote an article about a random(随意的)act of kindness I had seen Jordan (乔丹)do to a disabled child outside the Stadium (体育馆)after a game.The day after the article was published; I got a call from a man in the western suburbs. He said, “I read what you wrote about Jordan, and I thought I should tell you what I saw”.Here it comes, I thought. It always does. Write something about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.What the caller said, though, was this: he and his wife had been to a football game, and their car had broken down. They’d had to wait about 45minutes after the end of the game to get a taxi ride to the suburbs.“We were four blocks from the stadium in a bad area; and at one corner under a streetlight was Jordan’s car,” the man said. “He was standing outside the car, talking with some boys from the neighborhood. It was late at night, and they were just talking.I thought it was nice of him, but I wonder why he stopped. ”A few weeks later Jordan and I were talking about something else before a game, and I brought up what the man had said. Was the man right? Had Jordan really been talking to those two boys in that dark neighborhood?“Not two boys,” Jordan said, “But four, I see them every night.” Every night? Why?He smiled. “If I don’t stop, I’ll go home knowing they’re waiting for me anyway,” he said, “If you knew my four guys you’d know that they’re going to be out whether it’s raining or snowing. They’re there.”26.What is the usual reaction if someone is praised according to the writer?A)They will show no interest.B)They will tell something similar.C)They will want to know more.D)They will speak badly of the person.27.The man from the western suburbs called the writer to________.A)expose Jordan’s secret B)tell him about Jordan’s bad side C)say something good about Jordan D)make clear of some facts28.What does the word “dark” in Para. 6 mean?A)Distant.B)Backward C)Wild D)Dirty29.Jordan stopped to talk to those boys every night to_______.A)have fun B)build up his fameC)keep his promise.D)avoid disappointing them30.It can be inferred from the passage that________. A)Jordan knows the way to attract fans B)Jordan is the man who cares about othersC)Jordan is the man who doesn’t mind others’view D)Jordan tries every means to please the publicQuestions31 to 35 are based on the following passage:One summer day my father sent me to buy wire and fencing for our farm. At 16, I liked nothing better than getting behind the wheel of our family pickup (小货运车), but this time there was something bothering me. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit (赊账)at the store. Sixteen is a proud age, when a young man wants respect, not pity. It was 1976, and the ugly shadow of racism (种族主义)was still a fact of life in some parts of the country. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then be rudely asked whether they were “good for it”.My family was honest. We paid our debts. But before harvest, cash was short.Would the store owner trust us?At Davis Brothers General Store, Buck Davis stood behind the register (记帐台), talking to a farmer. Buck was a tall, weathered man in a red hunting shirt, and I nodded as I passed him on my way to the hardware counter. When I brought my purchases to the register, I said carefully, “I need to put this on credit”.The farmer gave me a strange look. But Buck’s face didn’t change. “Sure,” he said easily. “Your daddy is always good for it.” He turned to the other man, “This boy is one of James Williams’ sons.”The farmer nodded in a friendly way. I was filled with pride. James Williams’ son. Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.That day I discovered that a good name was of great value. The good name my father and mother had earned brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors. Everyone knew what to expect from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself too much to do wrong.31. The writer begins this article with _______.A)a small joke B)a personal experienceC)a pleasant fact D)a serious comment32.The purpose of this short article is most probably to tell us ______.A)that the ugly shadow of racism still exists in the 1970’sB)how he felt when he was asking for credit at a storeC)that the family’s good name helped him win others’respect and trustD)what the relationship was like between a store owner and his customers33.The sentence “I liked nothing better than getting behind the wheel of our family pickup…” means _______.A)I enjoyed picking up friends in our family car mostB)I enjoyed running after our family car mostC)I liked to sit in my father’s car to pick up purchasesD)I liked driving the small truck of our family best34.When the writer brought my purchases to the register, he said “ I need to put this on credit carefully” because ______.A)he was afraid of being refusedB)he was afraid that the owner didn’t understand himC)he was ashamed of being in debtD)he was not sure whether he could pay the debt back35.The word “decent” in the last sentence most probably means ______.A)frank B)honest C)poor D)modestPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: In this section there are 45 incomplete sentences.

江西省历年专升本英语试题

2001年江西省“专升本”英语统一考试试卷(120分钟)Part ⅠListening comprehension (20 points)(略)Part ⅡReading Comprehension (30 points)Directions: In this section there are four passages. Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through BritainD) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ______.A) try to catch the snakeB) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victimD) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders _______.A) normally friendly towards peopleB) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see themD) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually ______.A) move out of your pathB) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quicklyD) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will go bankrupt (破产); that is, it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out of business. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that _______.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutionD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses’ chance of making pr ofit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operation will soon be gone.In addition to creating a favorable bu siness environment, the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.

Being out of high school meant I was finally coming of age. Soon I would be on my own, making my own decisions, doing what I wanted and it meant going to school with boys — a welcome change coming from an all-girl high school.There was never any question in my mind that I would go to a college away from home. My mother’s idea, on the another hand, was just the opposite. Trying her best not to force her ideas on me, she would subtly(含蓄地)ask whether I had considered particular schools—all of which happened to be located in or near my hometown of Chicago. Once it was established that, if itwas financially feasible(可行的), I would go away anyway, my family’s ideas changed. T heir concern shifted from whether I was going away to how far I would go. The schools I was considering on the east Coast suddenly looked far more attractive than those in California.But which college I would attend was just one of what seemed like a never-ending list of unknowns. What would college be like? Would I be unbearably lonely not knowing anyone else who was going to the same school?… What if the college I selected turned out to be a horrible mistake?Then panic set in. My feelings took a 180-degree turn.21. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the writer according to the passage?A) She graduated from a high school for girls only.B) She wanted to leave home forever.C) Her hometown is on the West Coast.D) Her family was strongly against her leaving home.22. The writer was excited about her graduation because ________.A) that means she could go to work away from home.B) that means she would be independentC) she could invite her friends homeD) she would be allowed to go out with boys23. The writer’s mother asked her whether she had considered particular schools because her mother wanted ______.A) her to try different schoolsB) her to stay at homeC) her to go to an all-girl collegeD) her to go to a college near home24. The writer would go away from home _______.A) to find a better universityB) if her parents agreed to let her goC) if she had the moneyD) no matter what might happen to her25. Why did the writer’s feeling take a 180-degree turn in the end?A) Because she was not sure about her college life.B) Because she was lonely in her choice of college.C) Because in fact she was afraid of leaving her family.D) Because the college she selected was a horrible mistake.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passage:Early last season, I wrote an article about a random(随意的) act of kindness I had seen Jordan(乔丹) do to a disabled child outside the Stadium(体育馆) after a game.The day after the article was published, I got a call from a man in the western suburbs. He said:”I read what you wrote about Jordan, and I thought I should tell you what I saw.”Here it comes, I thought. It always does. Write something nice about a person, and people call you up to say that the person is not so nice.What the caller said, though, was this: he and his wife had been to a football game, and their car had broken down. They’d had to wait about 45 minutes after the end of the game to get a taxi ride to the suburbs.“We were four blocks from the Stadium in a bad area, and at one corner unde r a streetlight was Jordan’s car,” the man said, “He was standing outside the car, talking with some boys from the neighborhood. It was late at night, and they were just talking. I thought it was nice of him, but I wonder why he stopped.”A few weeks later Jordan and I were talking about something else before a game, and I brought up what the man had said. Was the man right? Had Jordan really been talking to those two boys in that dark neighborhood?“Not two boys,” Jordan said. “But four. I see them every n ight.”Every night? Why?He smiled. “If I don’t stop, I’ll go home knowing they’re waiting for me anyway,” he said. “If you knew my four guys you’d know that they’re going to be out there whether it’s raining or snowing…they’re there.”26. What is the usual reaction if someone is praised according to the writer?A) They will show no interest. C) They will want to know more.B) They will tell something similar. D) They will speak badly of the person.27.

At 16, I liked nothing better than getting behind the wheel of our family pickup(小货运车), but this time there was something bothering me. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit(赊款) at the store.Sixteen is a proud age, when a young man wants respect, not pity. It was 1976, and the ugly shadow of racism(种族主义) was still a fact of life in some parts of the country. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then be rudely asked whether they were “good for it”.My family was honest, we paid our debts. But before harvest, cash was short. Would the store owner trust us?At Davis Brothers General Store, Buck Davis stood behind the register(记帐台),talking to a farmer. Buck was a tall, weathered man in a red hunting shirt, and I nodded as I passed him on my way to the hardware counter. When I brought my purchases to the register, I said carefully, “I need to put this on credit.”The farmer gave me a strange look. But Buck’s face didn’t change. “Sure”, he said easily. “Your daddy is always god for it.” He turned to the other man. “This boy is one of James Williams’ sons.”The farmer nodded in a friendly way. I was filled with pride. James Williams’ son. Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.That day I discovered that a good name was of great value.The good name my father and mother had earned brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors. Everyone knew what to expect from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself too much to do wrong.31. The writer begins this article with ______.A) a small joke C) a pleasant factB) a personal experience D) a serious comment32.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneAll the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything yo u have in your basket is free!”61. The housewives learnt about the of free goods _______.A. on TVB. from the managerC. at the supermarketD. from the newspaper62. Mrs. Edwards ________.A. is always very luckyB. had no friendsC. hoped to get free shoppingD. gets disappointed easily63.

Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.A. pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66. The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.A. part of a historical cave systemB. the biggest underground lake in the worldC. listed in the Guinness Book of World RecordsD. the largest body of water in Tennessee67. The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A. through historyB. since the time of the Indian nationsC. since 1905D. since divers explored them68. Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?A. The Cherokee Indians.B. Tourists.C. Ben Sands.D. Scientists.69. What was found in “The Council Room”?A. A small natural opening.B. A large cave.C. Another series of rooms.D. Many old Indian objects.70. It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____.A. an underground testing siteB. an Indian meeting groundC. a tourist attractionD. a motor boat race coursePassage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the numbe r of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feelpain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing w rong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A. the year the author wrote the articleB. 1977C. any year between 1997 and 1983D. 198372. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.A. several studies have been done in the past few yearsB. the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC. adults have especially made studies in this fieldD. eating little in the morning is good for health73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance” means ______.A. anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB. not giving people breakfast improve performanceC. having breakfast does not improve performance, eitherD. people having breakfast do improve their performance74. The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______.A. stories, poems, plays, etc.B. written works on a particular subjectC. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America75. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.A. breakfast does not affect performanceB. Dr. Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningC. not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenD. Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76. College education is _______ in America.A. quite commonB. very rareC. something difficultD. almost impossible77. Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A. entrance examinationsB. taking part in many activitiesC. GPAD. college prep classes78. How can poor studentsattend private schools?A. Only by working at part-time jobs.B. Only by working at full-time jobs.C. Only by earning scholarships.D. All of above.79. The American college students like to _______ most of all.A. discuss problems on philosophyB. play ballsC. earn enough moneyD. go to the cinemas or theatres80. The best title for this passage is _______.A. Part-time jobsB. American collegeC. Popular activityD. A new systemⅤ.
