北京地区成人本科学位英语考试历年真题及答案(2008年4月-2010年5月)
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2008.04.19Part I Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Question 1to 5 are based on the following passage.If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find h ow “foolish” the Finnish people are.Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. (77) They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in sucha society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”.(78) In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others?1. While taking a taxi in Finland, _____A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driverB. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi rideC. a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to goD. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration before they leave without paying2. We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland_____A. provide meal for only those who live in the hotelsB. provide meals for any dinersC. provide free wine and charge for foodD. are mostly poorly managed3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.B. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees.C. The workers are always honest with their working hours.D. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay.4. The word “those” in the last paragraph p robably refers to _____A. people who often take taxisB. people who often have meals in big hotelsC. people who are dishonestD. people who are worthy of trust5. It can be concluded that _____A. Finnish people are not smart enough in daily lifeB. Finland has been a good place for cheatsC. the Finnish society is of very high moral levelD. all the Finns are richPassage 2Question 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:There are many factors which may have an influence on adults and children being able to lead a healthy life.Nowadays, people are very busy. Often, both parents work outside the home. Children are expected to take on more responsibility at home to help their parents. They also have sporting and leisure activities as well as school expectations.The busyness also adds another factor: the need to use cars to get from one place to another quickly.Today, society places a lot of emphasis on technology. Computers, DVDs. CDs, television, PlayStations and Xboxes have become major leisure activities, rather than traditional more active pursuits. This has led to a more sedentary lifestyle.The media provide entertainment and information. (79)Unfortunately, they also promote fast food which fits easily into busy lifestyles. It is much more convenient at times to buy a quick takeaway rather than prepare a meal. The media constantly bombard(轰炸) their audience with …perfect‟ body images, the need to buy the mos t fashionable clothes, the most up-to-date computer games, the best places to visit and the best things to do.Environments vary. We may be exposed to pollution , such as cigarette smoke. This can be harmful to people who suffer from breathing difficulties. (80)Environments where passive smoking is unavoidable make it difficult to lead a healthy life.It is important factor influencing healthy lifestyles is motivation. Or the desire to be healthy.

This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books ,which some might honor with the title of scientific research.But curiosity ,a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack.

最新5月北京地区成人学士学位英语统一考试真题及答案
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2015.05Part I Reading Comprehension Directions: There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests.The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil.The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s,stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula(配方奶粉)."Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits," says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in the Lancet Global Health.(76) Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health.This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated.For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed.In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ(智商)by a few points.But a recent study with siblings(兄弟姊妹) found little advantage to breast-feeding.Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects.So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth.They are now in their 30s.First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests.Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breastfed stayed the longer in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.第1题 From the passage, we learn that Horta .A.is from BrazilB.conducts his research in the U.S.C.has 30 researchers on his teamD.is well-known in developing countries答案：A第2题 Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT

should take care of each other.Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization.In1895, she suggested that St.Luke begin a program for young people.(77)This program became very popular with schoolchildren.In 1899, Walker became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization.However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St.Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over.It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank.But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that.(78)Her idea was to get new members to join the organization.In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members.The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55.Now Walker was ready for her next big step.第6题 Maggie's father died.A.when she finished high schoolB.before she was bornC.when she was very youngD.after she got

enforced in all schools.Now, under his leadership, the city is preparing to end the ban.It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class.Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, "If we don't see it, we don't know about it." That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets. "But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, the ban has been strictly enforced.The detectors were installed to keep weapons out of schools, but the scanners(扫描器) can also detect cell phones.So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them.The ban was put into place in 2007 under mayor Michael Bloomberg.Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban.Workers in vans(厢式货车) that resemble food trucks store teens' cell phones and other devices for a dollara day.(79) Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency.They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory.Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who can't afford to pay to store their phones.Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy.(80)It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests.第11题 Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A.New York City will give financial aid to poor students.B.New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries.C.New York City plans to install metal detectors in all public schools.D.New York City will soon end a ban on cell, phones in schools.答案：D第12题 Students paya day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school.A.a dollarsB.two dollarsC.five dollarsD.ten dollars答案：A第13题 Metal detectors were installed in 88 city schools, mainly to keepout of schools.A.cell phonesB.weaponsC.alcoholD.drugs答案：B第14题 The word discriminatory in Paragraph 5 probably means.A.necessaryB.toughC.strictD.unfair答案：D第15题 According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A.After the cell-phone ban is ended, students can use their phones during class.B.The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools.C.The cell-phone ban was put into place in 2008 under Mayor Bill de Blasio.D.A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses.答案：DPart Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.第16题 A: Excuse me, sir.But can you tell me if there is a hotel near here?B : Eh...there is one at the street corner, two blocks away.A: Thank you very much!B:__________!A.Nice to see youB.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试(A).doc
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试(A)2009.11.21Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:According to a recent surv, ey, employees in many companies today work longer hours than employees did in 1979. They also take shorter vacations than employees in 1979. It seems that Americans are working harder today than ever before. Or are they? A management consultant, Bill Meyer, decided to find out. For three days, he observed an investment banker hard at work. Meyer wrote down everything the banker did during his long workday. At the end of the three-day period, Meyer reviewed the banker's activities with him. What did they find out? They discovered that the man spent 80 percent of his time doing unnecessary work. For example, he attended unnecessary meetings, made redundant (多余的) telephone calls, and spent time packing and unpacking his two big briefcases.(76) Apparently many people believe that the more time a person spends at work, the more he or she accomplishes. When employers evaluate employees, they often consider the amount of time on the job in addition to job performance. Employees know this. Although many working people can do their job effectively during a regular 40-hour work week, they feel they have to spend more time on the job after normal working hours so that the people who can promote them see them.A group of headhunters (猎头) were asked their opinion about a situation. They had a choice of two candidates for an executive position with an important company. The candidates had similar qualifications for the job. For example, they were both reliable. One could do the job well in a 40-hour work week. The other would do the same job in an 80-hour work week just as well. According to a headhunting expert, the 80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job. The time this candidate spends on the job may encourage other employees to spend more time at work, too. Employers believe that if the employees stay at work later, they may actually do more work.However, the connection between time and productivity (生产率) is not always positive. (77) In fact. many studies indicate that after a certain point, anyone's productivity and creativity begin to decrease. Some employees are not willing to spend so much extra, unproductive time at the office. Once they finish their work satisfactorily, they want to relax and enjoy themselves. For these people, the solution is to find a company that encourages people to do both.1. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Many people work long hours but do not always do a lot of work.B. Most people can get more work done by working longer hours.C. Most Americans work 80 hours a week, and some work even longer.D. People can make more money by working longer hours.2. The management consultant wanted to fmd outA. how hard the investment banker worked during his work hoursB. when people spent time doing unnecessary work in their officeC. if people needed vacation after working hard for a certain period of timeD. whether Americans were really working harder than they had done before3. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The more time a person spends at work, the more he or she accomplishes.B.Employers do not judge their employees' job performance according to theamount of working time.C. Some people work more than 40 hours a week in the hope of getting promotion.D. Allemployees are willing to spend extra time at work.4. The 80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job because employers believe_____.A. that he is more reliableB. his example would lead other employees to work longer hoursC. he has better qualificationsD. he could encourage other employees to do a better job5. The expression “to do both”in the last paragraph is_____.A. to finish their work satisfactorily and relax and enjoy themselvesB. to pay attention to both performance and productivityC. to work long hours and have short vacationsD. to relax and enjoy themselves quite frequentlyPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Many private institutions of higher education around the country are in danger. Not ail will be saved, and perhaps not all deserve to be saved. There are low-quaiity schools just as there are low-quality businesses. We have no obligation to save them simply because .they exist. But many thriving institutions that deserve to continue are threatened. They are doing a fine job educationally, but they are caught in a financial difficulty, with no way to reduce rising costs or increase revenues (收入) significantly. Raising fees doesn't bring in more revenue, for each time fees go up, the, enrollment (注册人数) goes down, or the mount that must be given away in student aid goes up. (78) Schools are bad businesses, whether rmblic or orivate, not usually because of bad management but because of the nature of the business. They lose money on every customer, and they can go bankrupt either from too few students or too many students. Even a very good college is a very bad business.It is such colleges, thriving but threatened, that I worry about. Low enrollment is not their chief problem. Even with full enrollments, they may go under. Efforts to save them, and preferably to keep them private, are a national necessity. (79) There is no basis. for arguing that private schools are bound to be better than public schools. There are plentiful examples to the contrary. Anyone can name state universities and colleges that rank as the finest in the nation and the world. It is now inevitable that public institutions will be dominant, and therefore diversity (多样性) is a national necessity. Diversity in the way we support schools tends to give us a healthy diversity in the forms ofeducation. In ah imperfect society such as ours, uniformity of education throughout the nation could be dangerous, ha an imperfect society, diversity is a positive good. Eager supporters of public higher education know the importance of keeping private higher education healthy.6. In the passage, the author asks the public to support_____ .A. private higher education in generalB. public higher education in generalC. high-quality private universities and collegesD. high-quality state universities and colleges7. According to the passage, schools are bad businesses because of_____.A. the nature of schoolB. poor teachersC) bad management D. too few students.8. The phrase “go under”in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _____.A. have low feesB. get into difficultiesC. do a bad ]ob educationallyD. have low teaching standards9.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.There are many cases indicating that private schools are superior to public schools.B. The author thinks diversity of education is preferable to uniformity of education.C. A high-quality university is always a good business.D. Each time fees are raised, the enrollment goes up.10.In the author's opinion, the way that can save private schools lies in_____.A. full enrollmentB. raising feesC. reducing student aidD. national supportPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following passage:The fourth-graders atChicago's McCormick Elementary School don't know Chinese is supposed to be hard to learn. For most, who speak Spanish at home, it's becoming their third language. They've been heating and using Chinese words since nursery, and it's natural to give a “ni hao”when strangers enter the classroom.“It's really fun!”says Miranda Lucas, taking a break from a lesson that includes a Chinese interview with Jackie Chan. “I'm teaching my mom to speak Chinese.”The classroom scene at McCormick is unusual, but it may soon be a common phenomenon in American schools, where Chinese is rapidly becoming the hot new language. Government officials have long wanted more focus on useful languages like Chinese, and pressure from them -- as well as from business leaders, politicians, and parents -- has produced a quick growth in the number of programs.Chicago city officials make their best effort to include Chinese in their public schools. Their program has grown to include 3,000 students in 20 schools, with more schools on a waiting list. Programs have also spread to places like Los Angeles, New York City, and North Carolina. Supporters see knowledge of the Chinese language and culture as an advantagein a global economy where China is growing in importance. “This is an interesting way to begin to engage with the world's next superpower,”says Michael Levine, director of education at the Asia Society, which has started five new public highschools that offer Chinese. “Globalization has already changed the arrangements in terms of how children today are going to think about their careers, The question is when, not whether, the schools are going to adjust.”(80) The number of students leaming Chinese is tiny compared with how many study Spanish or French. But one report shows that before-college enrollment (报名人数) nearly quadrupled between 1992 and 2002, from 6,000 to 24,000. Despite the demand, though, developing programs isn't easy. And the No. one difficulty, everyone agrees, is having enough teachers. Finding teacher “is the challenge,”says Scott McGinnis, an academic adviser for a language institute and a Chinese teacher for 15 years at the college level. “Materials are easy comparison. Or getting schools funded.”11. The best title for this passage might be_____.A. Next Hot Language to Study: ChineseB. Next Hot Language to Study: SpanishC.Next Hot Language to Study: FrenchD. Chicago Is the Place to Learn Chinese12. The most difficult thing to do is finding _____.A. enough textbooks for the Chinese programsB. enough money for the Chinese programsC. enough teachers for the Chinese programsD. enough students for the Chinese programs13. We learn from the passage that_____.A. Scott McGinnis has been a Chinese teacher for 15 yearsB. Jackie Chan is a Chinese teacher at McCormick Elementary SchoolC. Chicago officials ire required to learn ChineseD. Scott McGinnis is good at giving his opinions on everything14. According to the passage, all the following statements are true EXCEPT_____.A. the number of students learning Chinese is smallB. Chinese programs have found their way in several major Cities in the U.S.C. g0vernment officials don't like the pressure from businessleaders and parents to start Chinese programsD. China is becoming more and more influential in the world15 The word "quadrupled"in the last paragraph is close in meaning to “multiplied by_____”.A. three timesB. four timesC. five timesD. six timesPart ⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence. Then blacken the Corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.16.

北京2010年5月成人学位英语考试A卷真题及答案
北京2010年5月成人学位英语考试A卷真题及答案收藏本页【大中小】 [ 2011年4月20日]北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2010.05.08（A卷）Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or un finished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The multi-billion-dollar Western pop music industry is under fire. It is being blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide, "The most worrying development is a culture of drug-friendliness," says the UN's International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year.The 74-page study says the pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-sette r for young people of most cultures. "Some songs encourage people to take drugs. (78)Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle," the study says.Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite the occa sional shock of death by overdose(过量用药). "Such incidents end to be seen as an occasion to mourn (哀悼) the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect of drug use," it notes. Since the 1970s, several internationally famous singer and movie stars—including Elvis Presley, Janice Jo phlin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Jonathan Melvin and Andy Gibbs—have died of either drug abuse or drug related illnesses. With the globalization of popular music, messages promoting drug abuse are now r eaching beyond their countries of origin. "In most countries, the names of certain pop stars have become familiar to the members of every household," the study says.The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug incidents, which encourages rather than prevents drug abuse. "Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is increasingly rega rded as being acceptable or even attractive," says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. "Powerful press ure groups run political campains aimed at legalizing controlled drugs," he says. Ghodse also points out t hat all these developments have created an environment which is tolerant (容忍的) of or even favorable t o drug abuse and spoils international drug prevention efforts currently under way.The study focuses on demand reduction and prevention within an environment that has become toler ant of drug abuse. The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties, and to act againstthe pro-drug（赞成吸毒）messages of the youth culture to which young people increasingly are being ex posed.1. Which of the following statements does the author tend to agree with?A. The use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes is an acceptable part of a person's lifestyle.B. The spreading of pop music may cause drug abuse to beyond country boundaries.C. No efforts have been made to prevent the spreading of drug abuse.D. Governments have no ability at act against the pro-drug messages of the youth culture.2. The expression "under fire" in the first paragraph means ________.A. in an urgent situationB. facing some problemsC. being criticizedD. in trouble3. From the third paragraph, we learn that the youth ________.A. tend to mourn the pop stars who died of overdose as role modesB. are shocked to know even pop stars may abuse drugsC. try to face the deadly effect of drug useD. may stop abusing drugs4. Which of the following is not mentioned as tolerant of drug abuse?A. The spreading of pop music.B. The media.C. Political campaigns run by powerful pressure groups.D. The low price of some drugs.5. According to the passage, pop music ________A. has a great influence on young people of most culturesB. attracts a small number of young peopleC. is not a profitable industryD. is alone responsible for drug abusePassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organiz ation, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries. For exa mple, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percen t. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? (76) One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disabilit y(残疾). Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.(77)Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensu re the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination(歧视)in employment. Life-long learning prog rams need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.6. The proportion of older people________.A. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countriesB. is one-seventh of the population in developing countriesC. will increase much faster in China than in FranceD. will be sixty percent in developing countries by 20207. According to passage, which of the following are governments most worried about?A. The diseases and disability of older people.B. The longer life and good health of people.C. The loss of taxes on older people.D. The increasing respect for older people.8. It is stated directly in the passage that older people should ________.A. be treated differently in different culturesB. enjoy a similar lifestyleC. be ignored as society changesD. be valued by the yonger generations9. Which of the following measure is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.B. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.C. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.D. Providing free health care for sick older people.E. Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.10. The author concludes in the last paragraph that ________.A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problemB. population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgentlyC. people are too busy to solve the population ageing problemD. much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problemPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:(79)Extensive new studies suggest that the world has made extraordinary progress in reducing povert y in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and contin ued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberaliz ation(自由化)after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International E conomics in Washington, find that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1980 and 12 percent in 1999. by some o ther measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agree that poverty has plunged in ke y nations such as India and especially China, thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic f reedom. "This is a huge success for the world as a whole," says Harvard University economist Richard Cooper. "We are doing something right."The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington- an event t hat has been troubled in recent years by protests that the Bank and its sister Institution, the International Monetary Fund(IMF国际货币组织)，have done too little for the world's poor. (80)The new economic r esearch will not put an end to that dispute. Vast populations remain poor, and many still question the wi sdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are helpful to understand what policies should be followed by those institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dramatic gains are under way, the present policies-callin g for open markets, free business activities, and tight monetary control-are working and correct.But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic success stories as Japan, C hina, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more than just "free" markets. These nations have manage d to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their domestic industries were y oung, pushing exports to rich nations, and putting controls on purely international financial flows. The ha ve been open to foreign-owned factories but have often insisted that those investors share the knowledge and skill on modern technologies.11. The word "plunged" in the first paragraph means ________.A. decreasedB. climbedC. increasedD. dropped into water12. From the passage, we learn that ______.A. World Bank has done nothing to help the poor in the worldB. IMF only helps the rich in the worldC. World Bank controls all the banks in the worldD. There are some demonstrations against World Bank in recent years13. According to this passage, in _____, the world had the largest number of poor people.A. 1999B. 1980C. 1950D. 199014. According to the author, the economy of East Asian countries grew very fast because of the foll owing measures EXCEPT ______.A. encouraging exportB. opening up to foreign investmentsC. limiting international financial flowsD. controlling import15. The best title for this passage might be ______.A. China's Contribution to the Reduction of Poverty in the WorldB. World Bank's Extraordinary Progress in Recent DecadesC.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试(A)
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试（A）2002.6Part I Reading Comprehension (40%)Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1 Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage:In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor’s degree.Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same question, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Generally, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.One type of test is sometimes called an “objective” test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like correct answers to students who have not learned the material properly.1. In the Middle Ages students _________A. took objective testsB. specialized in one subjectC. were timed by electric clocksD. never wrote exams2. The main idea of paragraph 3 is that _________A. workers now take examinationsB. the population has grownC. there are only written examsD. examinations are now written and timed3.The kind of exams where students must select answers are _________A. personalB. spokenC. objectiveD. written4. Modern industry must have developed ________A. before the Middle AgesB. around the 19th centuryC. in Greece or RomeD. machines to take tests5. It may be concluded that testing _________A. should test only opinionsB. Should always be writtenC. has changed since the Middle AgesD. is given only in factoriesPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The market investigation is indispensable to sales promotion. They are as closely related as the lips and teeth, so to speak. What you produce is for sale on the market. It would he impossible to succeed in selling a product without first investigating the market.In the international market, goods on sale coming from countries and suppliers are always facing keen competition. Under such circumstances, they will try everything possible to familiarize themselves with the market conditions. In making investigations, we ought to get information about what similar items the competitors are offering on the market, what prices they are quoting (报价), what features their products have, who are their regular customers, etc. Then, how can we obtain such information? There are many channels that we can make use of in doing this sort of work. The commercia l counselor’s offices of our embassies stationed abroad can help us in making market investigations. Nowadays, our import and export corporations send their trade groups abroad every now and then. One of their purposes is to make market surveys on the spot.Certainly, face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen are also important channels to get market information. The Chinese Export Commodities Fairs and some other fairs of similar nature as well as visits of foreign businessmen provide’ us with such oppor tunities. Of course, there are some other ways of making market investigations.6. In making market investigation, one should _______.A. get enough information concernedB. advertise his productsC. produce high quality goodsD. none of the above7. The word “indispensable” in the first line means _________.A. impossibleB. essentialC. advisableD. available8. Which of the following statements is not true?A. The relationship between market investigation and sales promotion is just as that of the lips and teeth.B. It is impossible to succeed in selling a product without market Investigation.C. There are various ways of making market investigation.D. Production goes before market investigation.9. Making market investigation is very important because ________.A. in market ,goods on sale are numerousB. every producer is facing keen competitionC. it can greatly promote salesD. all of the above10. All the following are channels to get market information except________.A. to have commercial counsello r’s office of our embassies stationed abroadB. to promote the quality of our own productsC. to send trade groups abroad every now and thenD. to have face-to-face talks with foreign businessmenPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:On November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln went to Gettysburg in Pennsylvania to speak at the National Soldiers Cemetery. The Civil War was still going on. There was much criticism of President, Lincoln at the time. He was not at all popular. He had been invited to speak at Gettysburg only Out of politeness. The principal speaker was to be Edward Everett, a famous statesman and speaker of the day. Everett was a handsome man and very popular everywhere.It is said that Lincoln prepared his speech on the train while going to Gettysburg. Late that night , alone in his hotel room and tired out, he again worked briefly on the speech. The next day Everett spoke first. He spoke for an hour and 57 minutes. His speech was a perfect example of the rich oratory of the day. Then Lincoln rose. The crowd of 15,000 people at first paid little attention to him. He spoke for only nine minutes. At the end there was little applause. Lincoln turned to a friend and remarked, “I have failed again.” On the train back to Washington, he said sadly,” That speech was a flat failure, and the people are disappointed.Some newspapers at first criticized the speech. But little by little people read the speech they began to understand better. They began appreciate its simplicity and its deep meaning. It was a speech which only Abraham Lincoln could have made.Today, every American school child learns Lincoln’s Gettysb urg Address by heart. Now everyone thinks of it as one of the greatest speeches ever given in American history.11. In 1863, Abraham Lincoln was ________A. very criticalB. unpopularC. very popularD. very courteous12.

Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address is memorized by every American school child.D. Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address is the greatest speec h ever delivered in the United States.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been demonstrated that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, prefer water with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles. When a fragrant flavor was added to the vitamin-enriched fluid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it, even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water. In time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were.In a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before them. They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in. We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced diet.So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what’s best for them. Apparently, there is a kind of “body wisdom,” which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habits. Some people eat fox, dog and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them.16. In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rat’s drinking water to ________A. encourage rats to drink vitamin-enriched waterB. find out rats preference in flavorC. test whether rats know which drink is good for themD. demonstrate that vitamins are tasteless17. The expression “the habit” (para. 1, sentence 4) refers to drinking water which _______A. has no smellB. is tastelessC. has vitaminsD. is flavored18. According to the passage, adults eating habits differ from those of babies because _________A. adults know better than babies what kind of food are good for their healthB. adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foodsC. adults’ eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customsD. adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patterns19. The author implied in the passage that most of us _________A. eat a balanced dietB. choose the food that is of nutritionC. have the habits influenced by the surroundingsD. like to eat the food with a fragrant flavor20. As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar in that _________A. both have the wisdom to choose a balanced dietB. both prefer flavored food and drinkC. both have the same eating patternsD. both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavorsPart II Vocabulary and Structure (40%)Directions: In this part there are 40 incomplete sentences.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2010.05.05（A卷）Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The multi-billion-dollar Western pop music industry is under fire. It is being blamed by the Uni ted Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide, “The most worrying development is a culture of drug-friendliness,| says the UN’s International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year.The 74-page study says the pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-setter for young people of most cultures. “Some songs encourage people to take drugs. (78)Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person’s lifestyle,”the study says.Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite the occasional shock of death by overdose(过量用药). “Such incidents end to be seen as an occasion to mourn (哀悼) the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect of drug use,: it notes. Since the 1970s, several internationally famous singer and movie stars—including Elvis Presley, Janice Jophlin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Jonathan Melvin and Andy Gibbs—have died of either drug abuse or drug related illnesses. With the globalization of popular music, messages promoting drug abuse are now reaching beyond their countries of origin. “In most countries, the names of certain pop stars have become familiar to the members of every household,” the study says.The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug incidents, which encourages rather than prevents drug abuse. “Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is in creasingly regarded as being acceptable or even attractive,” says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. “Powerful pressure groups run political campains aimed at legalizing controlled drugs,” he says. Ghodse also points out that all these developments have created an environment which is tolerant (容忍的) of or even favorable to drug abuse and spoils international drug prevention efforts currently under way.The study focuses on demand reduction and prevention within an environmentthat has become tolerant of drug abuse. The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties, and to act against the pro-drug（赞成吸毒）messages of the youth culture to which young people increasingly are being exposed.6.Which of the following statements does the author tend to agree with?A.The use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes is an acceptable part of aperson’s lifestyle.B.The spreading of pop music may cause drug abuse to beyond countryboundaries.C.No efforts have been made to prevent the spreading of drug abuse.ernments have no ability at act against the pro-drug messages of theyouth culture.7.The expression “under fire” in the first paragraph means ________.A.in an urgent situationB.facing some problemsC.being criticizedD.in trouble8.From the third paragraph, we learn that the youth ________.A.tend to mourn the pop stars who died of overdose as role modesB.are shocked to know even pop stars may abuse drugsC.try to face the deadly effect of drug useD.may stop abusing drugs9.Which of the following is not mentioned as tolerant of drug abuse?A.The spreading of pop music.B.The media.C.Political campaigns run by powerful pressure groups.D.The low price of some drugs.10. According to the passage, pop music ________A. has a great influence on young people of most culturesB. attracts a small number of young peopleC. is not a profitable industryD. is alone responsible for drug abusePassage 2Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage:There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. Alittle-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developingcountries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? (76) One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability(残疾).Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.(77)Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society.In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination(歧视)in employment. Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country’s development.Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.1.The proportion of older people________.A.is bigger in developed countries than in developing countriesB.is one-seventh of the population in developing countriesC.will increase much faster in China than in FranceD.will be sixty percent in developing countries by 20202.According to passage, which of the following are governments most worriedabout?A.The diseases and disability of older people.B.The longer life and good health of people.C.The loss of taxes on older people.D.The increasing respect for older people.3.It is stated directly in the passage that older people should ________.A.be treated differently in different culturesB.enjoy a similar lifestyleC.be ignored as society changesD.the valued by the yo7nger generations4.Which of the following measure is NOT mentioned to solve the populationageing problem?A.Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.B.Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.C.Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.D.Providing free health care for sick older people.E.Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.5. The author concludes in the last paragraph that ________.A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problemB. population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgentlyC. people are too busy to solve the population ageing problemD. much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problemPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:(79)Extensive new studies suggest that the world has made extraordinary progress in reducing poverty in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberalization(自由化)after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Economics in Washington, find that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1980 and 12 percent in 1999. by some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agree that poverty has plunged in key nations such as India and especially China, thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom. “This is a huge success for the world as a whole,” says Harvard University econom ist Richard Cooper. “We are doing something right.”The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington- an event that has been troubled in recent years by protests that the Bank and its sister Institution, the International Monetary Fund(IMF国际货币组织)，have done too little for the world’s poor. (80)The new economic research will not put an end to that dispute.Vast populations remain poor, and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are helpful to understand what policies should be followed by those institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dramatic gains are under way, the present policies-calling for open markets, free business activities, and tight monetary control-are working and correct.But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic success stories as Japan, China, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more than just “free”markets. These nations have managed to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, bylimiting imports when their domestic industries were young, pushing exports to rich nations, and putting controls on purely international financial flows. The have been open to foreign-owned factories but have often insisted that those investors share the knowledge and skill on modern technologies.11.The word “plunged” in the first paragraph means ________.A. decreasedB. climbedC. increasedD. dropped into water12.From the passage, we learn that ______.A. World Bank has done nothing to help the poor in the worldB. IMF only helps the rich in the worldC. World Bank controls all the banks in the worldD. There are some demonstrations against World Bank in recent years13.According to this passage, in _____, the world had the largest number of poorpeople.A. 1999B. 1980C. 1950D. 199014. According to the author, the economy of East Asian countries grew very fast because of the following measures EXCEPT ______.A. encouraging exportB. opening up to foreign investmentsC. limiting international financial flowsD. controlling import15. The best title for this passage might be ______.A. China’s Contribution to the Reduction of Poverty in the Worl dB. World Bank’s Extraordinary Progress in Recent DecadesC. India’s Leading Role in Reducing Global PovertyD. Global Progress in Reducing PovertyPart II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.
