基础英语1复习题厦门大学网络教育2011-2012学年第一学期《基础英语1》复习题一、阅读理解Passage OneEvery day, in all kinds of weather, many thousands of men and women run very slowly for long distances. This slow running is called jogging. Why has jogging become so popular? Most joggers begin because they hear that it is very good exercise. Jogging makes the heart stronger and helps people lose weight. It can also help them feel better about themselves.How fast should you go if you take jogging exercise? Jog with a friend and talk to each other as you run. If you have difficulty talking, you are going too fast. How far should you jog? Remember not to go too far too soon. In fact, you should walk, not run, the first few times. Then do some short jogs, but no more than what you can do comfortably. After that, increase your distance a quarter or half mile every two weeks or so. Maybe in a few years, you too can run in a Marathon. Thousands of people do.1.What is jogging according to this passage?A. Slow running for long distances.B. Slow running for short distances.C.

Y ou should run as if you were taking a walk.B. Y ou should talk to your friend and let him tell you how fast you should run.C. Y ou should run at a speed that you do not feel difficult talking with friends.D. If you feel comfortable, just run as fast as you can.4.What is the proper way to start jogging exercise?A.

Y ou should increase a quarter of mile every two or four weeks.C. Y ou should increase a quarter or half mile every two weeks or so.D. Y ou should increase a quarter or half mile every three weeks or so.Passage TwoIn most large cities, it is impossible to be served a meal at any hour of the day and night. Many restaurants close on Sunday. Check the telephone book for the locations and hours of restaurants that are open on Sundays or late at night. If you are outside a major city, it may be difficult to find an eating placethat will serve dinner after 8:30 p.m., although coffee shops and drugstores are usually open late.Some places offer Sunday “brunch”, which is a combination of breakfast and lunch, served at about 11:30 or noon, for late Sunday sleepers.In private homes, eating times vary considerably. In cities, the main meal is usually served in the evening, at about 7:00 or 7:30 p.m.. Many people who work in large cities such as New Y ork or Washington, for example, live an hour or more from their office. In general, however, Americans dine relatively early; 6:30 p.m. is quite common for dinner. On farms, however, the main meal may be served at noon, probably because people who live on farm begin their day so much earlier than those who live in cities.6. Where can you find information about restaurants that are open on Sundays?A. In newspapers.B. In the telephone book.C. At drugstores.D. Over the radio on Sundays.7.

In the late afternoon.C. At noon.D. At night.Passage ThreeAt the beginning of the 20th century, a new music called Jazz was born in NewOrleans. It was a kind of lively music intended to make people happy, but it was not so much a kind of music as a style of playing. The New Orleans musicians learned to work together to produce a relaxed beat. The beat is so powerful that the listeners cannot help but dance, or at least move their feet along with it.The best and almost the only place to hear the original New Orleans jazz is in Preservation Hall in the French Quarter of the city. There, seven different bands, made up mostly of very old men, play the old music for four and a half hours each evening. Some of the people in the audience are tourists, but most are serious music lovers who are willing to spend time sitting on plain wooden chairs and benches, and even on the floor. The musicians play the music they want to play, but the audience can ask for a particular song if they are willing to pay for it. Traditional songs cost one dollar and all others cost two.Old-style New Orleans jazz is in danger of disappearingbecause the players are getting old. Many of them are well over seventy. The music did disappear once before, when people lost interest in it and the musicians had to make their living doing other things. But in 1938 the current jazz revival began, when music historian William Russell found the famous trumpet player Bunk Johnson working in the fields and brought him back to New Orleans to play. When Preservation Hall reopened in 1961, the old music finally had a place to live again, and its popularity had grown ever since.11. What is this passage mainly about?A. The revival of old-style jazz music in New Orleans.B. The popularity of jazz music in New Orleans.C. Jazz music and audience paritcipation.D. The ups and downs of old-style jazz musc in New Orleans.12. What was most unusual about New Orleans jazz bands?A. They only played for serious misic lovers.B. Most members of the bands were quite advanced in years.C. They provided old-style jazz.D. The members of the bands played old music fro hours every evening.13. Who was Bunk Johnson?A. A serious music lover.B. A music historian.C. A famous jazz musician.D. A well-known jazz band leader.14. When did Preservation Hall reopen?A. In 1961.B. In 1938.C. In the early 1900s.D. In the late 1900s.15. Why did jazz disappear once before?A. The musicians were too old to play.B. The audience had lost interest in it.C. The bands were short of good trumpet players.D. Preservation Hall was closed.二、词汇与语法结构1、The new bridge will _____ the cities on the opposite banks of the river.A. attachB. connectC. communicateD. span2、If you are careless, you’ll _____ trou ble.A.feed intoB.look intoC. get intoD. fit into3、You look awful, I think you'd better ______ a doctor.A. seeB. seeingC. to seeD. saw4、To know about Britain and the British people, he made many social ______ while he was studying in that country.A. contactsB. compactsC. contractsD. concerns5、He told the story as if it _____ to him.A. happenedB. had happenedC. was happenedD. would happen6、Canada has two official languages, _______.A. the French and the EnglishB.

K201603《英语1》复习题
厦门大学网络教育2015-2016学年第二学期《英语1》课程复习题I. Reading Comprehension:Passage 1Millions of stars are traveling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, but most of them travel alone. And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere near it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering through space happened to come near our sun. Just as the sun and the moon raise tides on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wave must have traveled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space. These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets.1. Millions of stars are _______.A. following their own paths in spaceB. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universeD. always traveling together2. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because_______.A. a large tidal wave of a star traveled over the surface of the sunB. another star happened to come near the sunC. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD. the star moved away from the sun3. The article suggests that _______.A. our earth exists before the sunB. how space formedC. no one knows where the earth comes fromD. our earth used to be part of a high mountain on the sun4. The expression "the cause of the disturbance" refers to _______.A. the large tidal waveB. the powerful tidal pullC. the star coming near the sunD. one of the sun's planets5. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers _______.A. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itB. how the high mountains were formed on the sunC. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerfulD. where the planets in the universe came fromPassage 2By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children's language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children's language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child's language skills increase.A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, "What is the doggie doing?" rather than "Is the doggie running away?" The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers.At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5.5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.6. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.B. Parents who listen to their children can teach them more.C. Active children should read more and be given more attention.D. Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods.7. What does "it" in line 2 can most probably be replaced by?A. Parents increasing children's language developmentB. Reading techniques being simpleC. Parents reading to childrenD. Children's intelligence development8. According to the author, which of the following questions is the best type to ask children about?A. Do you see the elephant?B. Is the elephant in the cage?C. What animals do you like?D. Shall we go to the zoo?9. The difference between the control group and the experimental group was __________.A. the training that parents receivedB. the age of the childrenC. the books that were readD. the number of the children10. The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that __________.A. parents should be trained to read to their childrenB. the more children read, the more intelligent they will becomeC. children's language skills increase when they are required to respond activelyD. children who read actively seem six months olderPassage 3Different as they are, advertisements are alike in one important way. They have the samepurpose, to get people to buy something.In the days of the cave men there was no advertising. There was no need for it. But as soon as people began to make things to sell, advertising was found to be useful. The businessmen of ancient Egypt employed "criers" to walk through the streets shouting or singing about the things they wanted to sell. Newsboys still "cry" their papers now.In the Middle Ages businessmen hung picture signboards over their shop door showing what they had to sell. A large picture of a shoe above a shop door meant that it was a shoemaker's shop. It suggested buying shoes or having old ones mended.As more things were made to be sold, advertising grew. Today advertising is one of the biggest businesses. A great many people work at the advertisement. Every year billions of dollars are spent on advertising.Advertising helps sell more things to more people. This in turn makes it possible to produce more things to sell. Sometimes it even helps make things cost less. Radios, for example, used to cost much more than they do because they were turned out slowly and expensively by hand. But advertising made more people want radios. When producers began making them by the thousands, they found quicker and cheaper ways of doing the job.11. Advertising is almost all made ___________..A. by people who sell thingsB. by people who buy thingsC. by employed "criers"D. by ancient Egyptians12 All advertisements are the same in that ___________.A. they are of the same colorB. they help sell thingsC. they are made on televisionD. they often look alike13. It is not mentioned in the passage that__________ .A. advertising can be in both spoken and written formsB. advertising on TV is much preferredC. the cave men did not make any advertisementD. advertising today employs many "criers"14. Radios used to cost much more than they do today because_____________.A. people did not advertiseB. no one wanted to buy themC. they were made slowly by handD. they were made quickly by machines15 Advertising which is one of the biggest businesses probably began __________.A. in the days of the cave menB. in the Middle AgesC. in the modern timeD. when there were things to sellPassage 3Recycling—using materials for the second time—is nothing new. Waste paper, rags, scrap-iron and many other things have been recycled and used again in many different ways for years. It is only the word that is new. But now that natural materials are becoming more difficult to find, many countries are experimenting with other ways of keeping materials.In the USA, a publishing firm has brought out several books on pollution and waste. The books are made of recycled paper—that is paper that has been used before. In this way, several thousand trees are saved. Multiply those books by a hundred, or even a thousand, and whole forests are saved. One clever schoolboy has worked it out that if every schoolbook in the USA wasrecycled, there would be enough paper for fifty packets of peanuts for every child in the world for five years. He does not say where the peanuts are to come from.Several firms are experimenting with making containers from a hard plastic which, when the contents of the containers are finished, can be used as building materials, a kind of brick. If the mountains of empty cans all over the world can be changed into building materials that are not too expensive, that, too, is a new source of material.16. Waste paper, rags and scrap-iron can _______.A. be thrown awayB. not be used againC. not be keptD. be recycled and used again17. Since natural materials are becoming ______, people are finding ways of making use of wastematerials.A. more valuableB. more usefulC. more expensiveD. more difficult to find18. Firms using _______ may save money.A. old paperB. recycled paperC. new paperD. imported paper19. Empty containers made of ______ can be used as building materials.A. ironB. a hard plasticC. tinD. a soft plastic20.Which of the following can best describe the main idea of this passage?A. building materialB. pollutionC. recyclingD. experimentingII.

厦门大学网络教育2014-2015学年第一学期《英语1》课程复习题
厦门大学网络教育2014-2015学年第一学期《英语1》课程复习题I. Reading Comprehension:Passage 1Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what the senses---in this case our eyes---tell us.Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.1.The best title for this passage is B .A. How We SeeB. Learning About Our Minds Through ScienceC. What Psychologists PerceiveD. Interesting Experiments2.Seeing and perceiving are C .A. the same actionB. two actions carried on entirely by the eyesC. two separate actionsD. actions that take place at different times.3.Perceiving is an action that takes place D .A. in our eyes.B. only when we think very hard about something.C. only under the directions of a psychologistD. in every person’s mind4.Perception involves what D .A. our senses tell usB. our minds interpretC. we see with our eyes onlyD. both A and B5.Psychologists study perception by A .A. setting up many experimentsB. asking each other what they seeC. looking out of windowsD. studying people’s eyesPassage 2Benjamin Franklin was born in 1706 in Boston, Massachusetts. His mother and father were of Puritan(清教徒的）religion. They left England and moved to the English colony of Massachusetts in order to escape persecution(迫害）for their religion. In Boston, Franklin left school when he was ten years old and worked for his father for two years. Then he went to work on his brother’s newspaper. He became the editor of this paper when he was sixteen. Because he wanted to be independent, he went to Philadelphia. There he bought his own newspaper. He worked hard and save his money. Any by the age 24 he was one of the most successful men inPhiladelphia.In 1732 Franklin published a book “POOR RICHARD’S ALMANAC(历本）”. Most almanacs contained information for farmers, such as information about the days and weeks of the year and about the weather. To his almanac, Franklin added wise sayings, his observations about life, and some of these sayings are still famous today. For example, “Early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.” and “Waste not, want not,” and “A penny saved is a penny earned.”6. Benjamin Franklin was A .A. English originB. French originC. American originD. not mentioned7.

At the age of 11, he worked for B .A. his brotherB. his fatherC. himselfD. someone else9. He moved to Philadelphia because D .A. his brother didn’t like himB. he wanted to be dependent.C. he became the editor of the paper.D. he wanted to live on himself10 .Franklin’s almanacs contained D .A. information for farmersB. wise sayingsC. poor Richard’s ideas.D. both A and BPassage 3A four-year study conducted by the Infant (婴儿) Testing Center in San Francisco, California, suggests that babies feel more comfortable around other babies than with strange adults. According to the study, babies benefit by being with their fellow infants daily. Whereas a baby might show fear of an adult stranger, he is likely to smile and reach out for an unfamiliar infant. By the time babies are one year old, they have begun to form friendships of a sort.The above findings, based on observation of 100 babies aged three months to three years, might prove interesting to working parents who must find day care for their babies. Family care in a private home, with several babies together, is probably the ideal way to care for babies under three. Dr. Benjamin Spock, well-known pediatrician (儿科医生) and author of books about babies, supports the idea. He says that family day care is better in theory than hiring a housekeeper or a babysitter.11. What would be a good title for the passage? CA. How to Test InfantsB. Parents and ChildrenC. Day Care for BabiesD. Choosing a Babysitter12. A baby is likely to feel more at ease with ___B__.A. a housekeeperB. an infantC. an adult strangerD. teenage children13. What does Dr. Benjamin Spock do? BA. He recommends babysitters.B. He writes baby books.C. He conducts studies on infants.D. He directs a testing center.14. According to the passage, how should working parents provide care for their babies? AA. Find a private home with other babies.B. Take their babies with them to work.C. Hire an adult to come into the home.D. Search for a large nursery with a good reputation.15. The author is talking to __D__.A. babies under threeB. researchers on infantsC. pediatriciansD. working parentsPassage 4About one hundred and thirty years ago, Thomas Edison of the US invented the light bulb(电灯). Edison's bulb has turned night into day ever since. But today, many want to turn the light off.The European Union recently decided that by 2009, people should stop using the Edison-style light bulb. Instead, they should use compact fluorescent lamps (节能灯)."CFLs save energy and last longer. They can save money in the long run," said a British official. CFLs use 67 percent (67%) less electricity than the older bulbs. They last up to 10 times longer. Scientists say that if everyone used CFLs, electricity use would be cut by 18 percent. There would also be much smaller amounts of greenhouse gas given off.But it's difficult to make people change their lighting habits. First the CFLs are more expensive. They cost eight times the price of the older bulbs. Many people don't like the CFL bulb. They find it too bright. You cannot change the light of a CFL, either.16. When was the Edison-style light bulb invented? BA. Early this century.B. About 130 years ago.C. A century ago.D. In the 1920s.17. What do many people want today? AA. To turn off the light.B. To make night even brighter.C. To turn day into night.D. To turn night into day.18. Who says that CFLs should take the place of the Edison-style light bulb? BA. Great Britain.B. The European Union.C. The United States.D. The United Nations.19.

厦门大学网络教育2010-2011学年第二学期《基础英语1》复习题一、阅读理解Passage OneFlorence Nightingale was born in Florence，Italy，while her wealthy English parents were traveling in Europe．As a child，she traveled to many places with her family and learned how to speak several languages．When Nightingale was 17，she told her family that she was going to help sick people．Her parents did not approve，but Nightingale was determined．She traveled to hospitals all over Europe．She saw that doctors were working too hard．She saw that patients died because they did not get enough care．Nightingale felt that women could be doing more to help doctors take care of sick people．Nightingale knew that in order for nurses to do more，they needed special training in how to take care of sick people．Nightingale went to a hospital in Germany to study nursing．Then she returned to London and became the head of a group of women called Gentlewomen During Illness．These women cared for sick people in their homes．In 1854．England was fighting a war with Russia．No reporters wrote about the terrible conditions in the hospitals that cared for the wounded．People demanded that something be done about it．A leader of the government asked Florence Nightingale to take some nurses into the war hospitals．So，in November 1 854，Nightingale finally got to work in a hospital．She took along 38 nurses whom she had trained herself．At first, the doctors on the battlefields did not want Nightingale and her nurses in their hospitals．They did not believe that women could help．But in fact，the nurses did make a difference．They worked around the clock，tending the sick．Thanks to their hard work，many wounded soldiers survived．After the war, Nightingale and her nurses were treated 1ike heroes．Finally，in 1 860，she started the Nightingale School for Nurses．In time，thanks to Florence Nightingale，nursing became an important part of medicine．（答案：CBADC）1.

Nightingale played a great role in __C_____ .A. the building of war hospitalsB. the education of womenC. the development of nursingD. the improvement of working conditions for womenPassage TwoIn most large cities, it is impossible to be served a meal at any hour of the day and night. Many restaurants close on Sunday. Check the telephone book for the locations and hours of restaurants that are open on Sundays or late at night. If you are outside a major city, it may be difficult to find an eating place that will serve dinner after 8:30 p.m., although coffee shops and drugstores are usually open late.Some places offer Sunday “brunch”, which is a combination of breakfast an d lunch, served at about 11:30 or noon, for late Sunday sleepers.In private homes, eating times vary considerably. In cities, the main meal is usually served in the evening, at about 7:00 or 7:30 p.m.. Many people who work in large cities such as New York or Washington, for example, live an hour or more from their office. In general, however, Americans dine relatively early; 6:30 p.m. is quite common for dinner. On farms, however, the main meal may be served at noon, probably because people who live on farm begin their day so much earlier than those who live in cities.（BBDAC）6.

In the late afternoon.C. At noon.D. At night.Passage ThreeIn the last 500 years, nothing about people---not their clothes, ideas, or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree（可可树）by South American Indians. The Spanish intr oduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine(饥荒)”of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to leave their homeland and move to America.There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.(答案：ACDAB)11.

厦门大学网络教育2011-2012学年第二学期《英语1》复习题I. Reading Comprehension:Passage 1A young man who lived in London was in love with a beautiful girl. Soon she became his fiancee. The man was very poor while the girl was rich. The young man wanted to make her a present on her birthday. He wanted to buy something beautiful for her, but he had no idea how to do it, as he had very little money. The next morning he went to a shop. There were many fine things there: rings, gold watches, diamonds—but all these things were too expensive. There was one thing he could not take his eyes off. It was a beautiful vase. That was a suitable present for his fiancee. He had been looking at the vase for half an hour when the manager of the shop noticed him. The young man looked so pale, sad and unhappy that the manager asked what had happened to him.The young man told him everything. The manager felt sorry for him and decided to help him. A brilliant idea struck him. The manager pointed to the corner of the shop. To his great surprise the y oung man saw a vase broken into many pieces. The manager said: “I can help you. I shall order my servant to pack it and take it to your fiancee. When he enters the room, he will drop it.”On the birthday of his fiancee the young man was very excited. Everything happened as had been planned. The servant brought in the vase, and as he entered the room, he dropped it. There was horror on everybody’s face. When the vase was unpacked the guests saw that each piece was packed separately. (278 words) BBDCB1.

Most of these colleges were established in the 19th century; they were designed to offer women the education they could not receive anywhere else. At that time major universities and colleges accepted only men. In the past 20 years many young women have chosen to study at colleges that accept both men and women. As a result some women's colleges decided to accept men students too. Others, however, refused to change. Now these schools are popular (流行的) again.The president of Trinity College (三一大学) in Washington, D.C. said that by the end of the 1980s women began to recognize that studying at the same school with men did not mean women were having an equal chance to learn. The president of Smith College in Massachusetts says a women's college permits women to choose classes and activities freely. For example, she says that in a women's college a higher percentage of students studies mathematics than in a college with both men and women.Educational experts say men students in the United States usually speak in class more than women students do. In a women's college, women feel freer to say what they think. Women's schools also bring out leadership capabilities in many women. Women are represented everywhere. For example, at a women's college every governing office is held by a woman. Recent studies reportedly show that this leadership continues after college. American women who went to women's colleges are more likely to hold successful jobs later in life. (266 words) ABACB6. Women's colleges were established to ________________.A. give women the same right of education that men enjoyB. make changes to the traditional educational system (系统)C. defy men's privilege (特权) in societyD. train women in particular fields7. Studying at the same school with men does not mean ________________.A. women can do the same thing as menB. that women are given the same chance as menC. women are allowed more freedom to develop themselvesD. the present educational system does not allow other choices8. According to the passage, in women's schools _________________.A. women are freer than if they study at the same school with menB. women could do anything they wantC. they teach things peculiar to womenD. men are openly challenged9. Which one of the following statements is NOT true about women's college?A. Women feel freer to say what they think.B. More women can participate in the management of the college.C. A very high percentage of women will become leaders later.D. Women are more likely to be successful in their later careers.10. The title of this passage is most likely to be ______.A. Female Education in the United StatesB. Women's Schools in the United StatesC. Women Should be Given the Same Education as MenD. Education in AmericaPassage3Television carries more national advertising than any other medium in the United States. The same is true in some smaller countries such as Spain and Portugal, where it is the only medium reaching a general national audience. In many countries, (Sweden and Denmark, for example) the state-owned television accepts no advertising. In many other countries the amount of commercial (商业广告) time is very much limited, as in France, Germany, and Italy. Russian state-owned television began accepting a limited amount of advertising in 1988.The chief reason that television is so well liked among United States advertisers is that it reaches a vast number of people at the same time. While it can cost well over 100,000 dollars, a 30-second commercial on network television can be seen and heard by as many as 25 million viewers. For companies that must make prospects aware of their products and convince them of their benefits immediately, there is nothing as efficient as television advertising.Because it employs motion as well as words, pictures, sounds, and music, television is a valuable medium for products that lend themselves to demonstration. No other medium is as effective in showing how quickly an automobile can move or how well a certain type of wristwatch will stand up under heavy use and continue to run. In the same way, it is an ideal medium for showing how some products can make a person feel better about him- or herself, such as long-distance telephone calls.（250 words）CCADB11. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. There is less advertising on TV in Spain than in Sweden.B. One can never see any commercial on TV in Denmark since it is not accepted at all.C. The amount of commercial time is very much limited in most European countries.D. French people don't have to worry about being troubled by commercials.12. According to the passage, what is the main reason United States advertisers like television so much?A. It communicates information more quickly.B. Every household has at least one TV set.C. It communicates information to a vast number of people at the same time.D. American people love watching TV more than reading.13. The word prospects in the 2nd paragraph means _____________.A. potential customersB. competitorsC. working staff at TV stationsD. partners14. Which of the following is employed in TV advertising?A. MotionB. Sounds and music.C. PicturesD. All of the above.15. Which of the following statements is true?A. Television is as efficient as newspaper in demonstration benefits of a certain product or service.B. Television is a valuable medium in demonstrating benefits of a certain product or service.C.

厦门大学网络教育2013-2014学年第一学期《英语1》复习题I. Reading Comprehension:Passage 1Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of 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 number of people who didn‟t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain 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 wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E.

It is common for big markets in many places to sell cat food and dog food. However, in a small town in France, there is a special restaurant for dogs. Dogs are the only customers.

Reading ComprehensionPassage 1If you’ve been joining in chat room conversations, or exchanging e-mails with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” online—many of them are talking at the same time.People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “Shift” key and used capitals. Punctuation is going, too.1.

Here health professionals reveal their favorite methods.Go green. Coffee, loaded with hidden sources of caffeine, stimulates (刺激) the nervous system and can make you feel stressed more easily.

It is practiced at objects which are properly monitored and usually quite safe. Only certain handguns are true “sporting weapons”, seen as such by the sport’s lovers.People must understand that handguns and hunters are separate matters. Because most of the hunters use a rifle or a shotgun, there is no reason why their search for game and sport should be affected by handgun control. Mixing the anti-hunting matter with the handgun matter confuses the killing of animals with the killing of people.1. In the writer’s opinion, people should use handguns only when ______.C. objects are under control2. Most stats limit the type of guns used for hunting because ______.D. hunters should take a humane approach toward animals3.

Goodbye, dear, and thanks again.” It had not been an easy telephone call for Mrs. Robinson to make. Her daughter had been very kind, of course, and had immediately agreed to pick her up and drive her to the station, but Mrs. Robinson hated to admit that she needed help. Since her husband had died ten years before, she had prided herself on her independence. She had continued to live in their little house, alone.“I know,” Kate interrupted gently. “It’s nice to have something alive in the room.” But in the little house, the two goldfish had stopped their circling. They were floating on the water, in the room with empty walls.1. What kind of person was Mrs. Robinson, according to the passage?C. She did not like asking people for help.2.

They make a fuss over (对……关怀备至) the children in the family, show off to their friends the achievements of this child or that child, and show countless pictures of new babies. Grandfathers can fix anything, and grandmothers always have homemade biscuit around.1. What is the position of grandparents in the family according to the writer?B.

WealthPassage 7“Congratulations, Mr. Jones, it’s a girl.”It is argued by some writers that the change to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must make to the mother’s role. The mothe r’s role seems to require a complete change in daily routine and adjustment, and the father’s role is less demanding and immediate.

厦门大学继续教育2015英语复习题
2015-2016 学年第一学期厦门大学网络教育2 》课程复习题《英语I. Reading Comprehension:Passage 1Trees should only be pruned (修剪) when there is a good and clear reason for doing so and, fortunately, the number of such reasons is small. Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrownand unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged by the thought thatmore damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tree to grow in its own way.First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size. The objectmay be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of small side branches which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pruning may bedone to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or branches that arerubbing against each other and thus cause wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventing the free movement of air.One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entryfor disease, but it is a wound that will heal. Often there is a race between the healing and thedisease as to decide whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is atrisk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible. It is essential to make the area which has been pruned smooth and clean, for healing will be sloweddown by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it withone of the substances available from garden shops produced especially for this purpose. Pruning is usually done in winter, for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference fromthe leaves and also it is very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is,of course, impossible to paint them properly.1. Pruning should be done to _____. BA. make the tree grow tallerB. improve the shape of the treeC. get rid of the small branchesD. make the small branches thicker2. Trees become unhealthy if the gardener _____. AA. allows too many branches to grow in the middleB. does not protect them from the windC. forces them to grow too quicklyD. damages some of the small side branches3. Why is a special substance painted on the tree? BA. To make a wound smooth.B. To prevent disease entering a wound.C. To cover a rough surface.D. To help a wound to dry.4. A good gardener prunes a tree _____. CA. at intervals throughout the yearB. as quickly as possibleC. occasionally when necessaryD. regularly every winter5. What was the author's purpose when writing this passage? AA. To give practical instructions for pruning a tree.B. To give a general description of pruning.C. To explain how trees develop diseases.1D. To discuss different methods of pruning.Passage 2Instead of a boost to productivity, many firms are discovering that the Internet is having the opposite effect in the workplace. Employees are surfing the web, checking their stocks, tuning in to web-broadcasts, all while being paid to work. A recent study suggests that German companies lose almost $50 billion each year through employees' personal workplace web surfing. It's been estimated that as many as 60% of all employees with desktop Internet access go online at least once daily for non-business activities. On average they spend some 3.2 hours a week of company time online.The German government, always eager for new sources of tax revenue, has announced that it is investigating ways to tax Internet access by employees for personal use, the theory being that free surf time is a taxable employee benefit -- like a company car.Imposing such a tax would be difficult, but the threat helps to highlight employers' need to keep employees' noses to the grindstone. Of course, one company's problem can be another company's opportunity. Filtering and monitoring software is a booming business -- and the future looks bright. The Internet access control software business will likely generate over $500 million in annual sales by 2004. That means more firms will be installing software like Super Scout by Surf Control, which not only knows where you surfed, but can block access to nonessential sites. So, if the next time you go surfing your board seems a little bit smaller, it could be because Big Brother is going along for the ride.6. What is the headache to many firms? CA. Employees' surf time is increasing.B. The difficulty of imposing tax on Internet access by employees for personal use.C. The increasing money paid for employees' personal use online.D. Business is slow with the coming of the Internet.7. The opposite effect of the Internet, in the eyes of many firms, is that ________ .CA. employees are surfing without realizing the passage of timeB. employees have an access to the Internet for their own benefit free of chargeC. employees pay less attention to their work while they have to pay for the undesirableD. the fluctuation in stock market can affect employees' incentives8. “to keep employees' noses to the grindstone”( Paragraph 3) means ________. AA. to make employees continue to work hard without interruptionB. to prevent employees from going surfing onlineC. to encourage employees to go surfing while workingD. to punish employees for wrongdoing9. Who will benefit from this issue? CA. The German government.B. The firms.C. The software company.D. The company collecting taxes.10. What can be concluded from the last paragraph? CA. There will be a boost to productivity with the help of Surf Control.B. The German government will sooner or later find a new way of increasing tax revenue.C. You are likely to be watched and controlled while online in workplace.2D. Your employer is likely present while you go surfing.Passage 3Millions of stars are traveling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, but most of them travel alone. And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For the most part each star makes its journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well over a million miles from its nearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhere near it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wanderingthrough space happened to come near our sun. Just as the sun and the moon raise tides on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on the surface of the sun. But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in our oceans; a large tidal wave must have traveled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the cause of the disturbance came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before the star began to move away again, its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off small parts of itself into space. These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets.11. Millions of stars are _______. AA. following their own paths in spaceB. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universeD. always traveling together12. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because_______. BA. a large tidal wave of a star traveled over the surface of the sunB. another star happened to come near the sunC. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD. the star moved away from the sun13. The article suggests that _______. DA. our earth exists before the sunB. how space formedC. no one knows where the earth comes fromD. our earth used to be part of a high mountain on the sun14. The expression he cause of the disturbance refers to _______. CA. the large tidal waveB. the powerful tidal pullC. the star coming near the sunD. one of the sun's planets15. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers _______. DA. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itB. how the high mountains were formed on the sunC. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerfulD. where the planets in the universe came fromPassage 4Cars are important in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor.3And even if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor when he has a car.Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn't know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the United States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. First of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developedan efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence iswhat really made cars popular. Americans don't like to wait for a bus or a train or even a plane. They don't like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not be abigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas.16. When do most Americans feel they are poor? AA. When they don't have a car.B. When they live in a huge country.C. When they don't use planes.D. When they have a car.17. What is the most important reason that cars become popular in the United States? CA. Because the United States is huge.B. Because public transportation is not so good.C. Because Americans like to be independent.D. Because Americans like to move around.18. What public transportation is good in the United States? DA. Buses.B. Trains.C. Taxis.D. Planes.19. What has caused a big problem for Americans? CA. A new kind of car.B. Public transportation.C. The gas shortage.D. Poor people.20. Which of the following is not mentioned according to this passage? CA. Cars have made the nation on wheels.B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage.C. Nearly 80% of the American people have cars.D. Cars have made American independent.II. V ocabulary and Structure：1.

基础英语1厦门大学网络教育2011-2012学年第二学期《基础英语1》复习题一、阅读理解Passage OneBlue jeans are the all-American, all-purpose clothing. Farmers and laborers wear them to work in. Children wear them to play in. Teenagers and adults wear them to look fashionable (时髦). Before the 1950’s, blue jeans were popular only in the West and the Southwest. Today almost everyone wears them.Levi Strauss and Company makes about one-third of all the jeans in the United States and about one-seventh of those in other countries. In fact, for a long time people used the word Levi’s as a synonym（同义词）for blue jeans. That’s because Levi’s were the first jeans ever made. Their inventor was a German immigrant(移民) named Levi Strauss.Levi Strauss left Germany in 1848, when he was a young man. He came to New Y ork City to be near his two brothers. For two years, he was a door-to-door salesman. He worked hard, but he didn’t make much money. Then like many other Easterners, he decided to go to San Francisco.When Levi went West, he brought some canvas ( a very strong cloth) with him. He wanted to sell it to the gold miners for making tents. His canvas was the wrong kind for tents, but Levi found another use for it. A miner told Levi that he needed a strong pair of pants because digging for gold was hard work. When Levi heard that, he made him a pair of canvas pants. The miner paid Levi $6 in gold dust and told the others about “those pants of Levi’s”. Levi quickly sold a lot of pants, but h e ran outof canvas. He wrote to his bothers in New Y ork and told them to send more. Instead, they sent him some heavy cotton cloth called denim. Much of this kind of cloth came from Genes (the French name for the city of Genoa, Italy). Levi changed the spelling of Genes to jeans.He also dyed (染) the denim blue. He called his new pants blue jeans.1. According to the passage, blue jeans didn’t become popular across the United States untilafter ________ .A. the mid-17th centuryB. the mid-18th centuryC. the mid-19th centuryD. the mid-20th century2. The purpose of Levi Strauss’ moving from Germany to the U.S. was to ________.A. live near his two brothers in New Y orkB. make money as a door-to-door salesmanC. find gold in California with other EasternersD. invent and sell blue jeans to miners3. Which language is the word “jeans” from ?A. EnglishB. FrenchC. GermanD. Italian4. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Levi Strauss made the first jeans for a Western gold miner.B. Levi Strauss went West because he was unsuccessful in New Y ork.C. Levi Strauss began his business career as a gold miner.D. Levi Strauss was the first in the world to make jeans.5. Blue jeans are _______ .A. made of denim instead of canvasB. the strong pants only for hard work like gold-miningC. well-loved by a limited number of people at a certain ageD. the fashionable clothing invented by Levi and his brothersPassage TwoAll big cities are quite similar. Living in a modern Asian city is not very different from living in an American city. The same cannot not be said about living on farms, however.In many parts of the world, farmers and their families live in villages or towns. In the United States, however, each farm family lives on its own fields, often beyond the sight of any neighbors. Instead of traveling from a village to the fields every morning, American farmers stay on their land throughout the week. They travel to the nearest town on Saturdays for shopping or on Sundays for church. The children ride on buses to large schools which serve all of the farm families living in the area. In some areas, there are small schools serving a few farm families, and the children walk to school.Of course life keeps changing for everyone, including farmers. Today there are cars, good roads, radios, and television sets. And of course there are modern machines for farming. All of these have changed farm life.For many years, however, farming in American was often a lonely way of living. Farmers had to deal with their own problems, instead of getting help from others. They learned to try new methods, and to trust their owm ideas instead of following older ways.6. Where do farm families in the United States live?A. In towns.B. In villages.C. Near churches.D. On their own fields.7. What have you learned about American farmers’ life in the past?A. Happy.B. Independent.C. Colorful.D. Dull.8. How do farmers’ children got to school according to the passage?A. Either on foot or by car.B. Either by bus or on foot.C. Either by car or by bus.D. Either on foot or on bike.9. What can you learn from the passage?A. City life differs from country to country.B. Rural life is very much the same everywhere in the world.C. Living on a farm in the U. S. is different from that in many other countries.D. Nowadays life on a farm is very similar to life in a city.10. What can you infer from the passage?A. Life for farmers is as monotonous as before.B. Life is becoming easier for farmers.C. Life is changing for the better for city people only.D. Life is becoming more challenging for farmers.Passage ThreeRed Cross is an international organization which cares for people who are in need of help. A man in a Paris hospital who needs blood, and a family in India that lost their home, and awoman in Mexico who was injured in an earthquake may all be aided by Red Cross.Red Cross exists in almost every country around the globe. The world Red Cross organizations are sometimes called the Sun or the Red Line. All of these share a common aim of trying to help people in need.The idea of forming an organization to help the sick and wounded during a war started with Jean Dunant.

The most important result of his work was international. It protects prisoners of war, the sick and the wounded and other citizens during the war.11. Which of the following statements is not true?A.

厦门大学网络教育2012-2013学年第二学期《基础英语1》课程复习题一、阅读理解Passage OneTed Schredd doesn’t like cars. He expects people to stop driving because cars make the air dirty. Ted had an idea. He said, “I’m going to cycle around North America. I want to show everyone that cycling is a fun way to get around. If more people ride bikes, the air will be cleaner.”He left his hometown with $160 in his pocket. When he got to San Diego, he met another cyclist. The cyclist invited Ted to speak at a big meeting about the environment. He said, “We’ll pay your airfare to Texas and we’ll pay you to talk about your cycling trip.”Two hours later, Ted was on a plane to the environment conference and to a big surprise!While he was at the conference, he met Deanna. It was love at first sight! They talked for six hours straight.The next day, Ted called Deanna and asked her to finish the trip with him. Deanna said yes, sold everything in her apartment, gave her notice at work, and was on the road with Ted 20 days later!“It was difficult at first,” said Deanna. “Ted got up at 6:00 a.m., but I wanted to sleep until noon.”After a few days, they started having fun. As they cycled from Florida to Montreal and then back to Vancouver, every day was an adventure. People paid for their food in restaurants and gave them extra money. Some people gave them $50 or $100. They slept in people’s backyards and drank beer with motorcycle gangs.On their way back to Vancouver, they stopped in Edmonton to visit Ted’s ralatives. During the stopover, they got married. People tied a “Just Married” sign and tin cans to the backs of their bikes.

One Alaska island is only two miles from a Russian island. The nearest state is Washington, 500 miles away.Alaska is more than twice as big as Texas. It has many different kinds of weather. Around Fairbanks the temperature has gone as low as 70 below zero Fahrenheit. It has also gone as high as 100 above zero Fahrenheit.Alaska has a longer coastline than all the other states together. The ocean water is full of sea life. Alaska’s fish catch is one of the biggest of all the states.

A Brief Introduction to AlaskaPassage FourTo us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun!Nobady knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh centurey B.C.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellaas protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority.

Many restaurants close on Sunday. Check the telephone book for the locations and hours of restaurants that are open on Sundays or late at night. If you are outside a major city, it may be difficult to find an eating place that will serve dinner after 8:30 p.m., although coffee shops and drugstores are usually open late.Some places offer Sunday “brunch”, which is a combination of breakfast and lunch, served at about 11:30 or noon, for late Sunday sleepers.In private homes, eating times vary considerably. In cities, the main meal is usually served in the evening, at about 7:00 or 7:30 p.m.. Many people who work in large cities such as New York or Washington, for example, live an hour or more from their office. In general, however, Americans dine relatively early; 6:30 p.m. is quite common for dinner. On farms, however, the main meal may be served at noon, probably because people who live on farm begin their day so much earlier than those who live in cities.21. Where can you find information about restaurants that are open on Sundays?A. In newspapers.B. In the telephone book.C. At drugstores.D. Over the radio on Sundays.22.

在退休的前一天，彼得恳请其说出真相，结果令彼得恍然大悟。
答案简析1．D。
根据下文这个工人越过边界后，走下山坡，所以到达边界之前应在朝山上走。
故选up。
2．C。
这名工人是在推着一辆装有稻草的自行车，故选动词pushing。
3．D。
这里表达的是到达边界之意arrive, come为不及物动词不可直接接the frontier，故选reached。
4．C。
ask与order后接不定式的复合结构时，动词前应有to, make后接不定式的复合结构时，动词前to要省去。
根据下文应选make。
5．A。
彼得想发现这个工人在走私什么，所以应仔细地检查。
故选carefully。
6．D。
这里根据文意，应选择表示“是否”之意的whether作宾语从句的引导词。
7．A。
根据常理，彼得应先检查这个工人的口袋才能让他捆起稻草走人，故选before。
8．B．根据文意，彼得心中一直怀着查获走私物品的希望，故选hoping。
9．B。
这里things和hide之间是被动关系,现在分词hiding作定语时表示主动，所以应用过去分词hidden作后置定语表被动。
10．D。
本句中否定词never及文意决定了这里应选anything。
11．B。
四个选项从语法上讲都可以，只能从文意上进行区分，smuggling意为“走私”，是正确选项。
12．C。
固定结构be able to do sth. 意为“能够干某事”。
13．A。
习惯用语look through 意为“彻底检查”。
14．D。
“as usual”为固定短语，意为“象平常一样”。
15．D。
tell, order后面应直接接人作宾语表示告诉某人和命令某人，而用say应为say to sb. 故said为正确选项。
16．C．这里应选择一个介词构成介词短语在句中做状语。
介词past 表“经过”；across 强调“从一边到另一边”；而into 表示“进入到……里面”。
根据文意across应为正确选项。
17．C。
“on the job”为一常用短语。
意为“执行公务”。
18．C。
因为今天是彼得最后一天上班说明明天他就要退休retire。
19．B。
根据句中否定词not 及文意应选anyone。
20．D。
本句说明这个工人回答彼得的问题之前沉默了一会儿。
A选项应用a moment；C选项表示某一点时间；D选项表示一段时间或一会儿，为正确选项。
