A.
When I first knew Mike, we lived in a small village inScotland. It was very different from Mike’s life inLondonnow. We went to school together on our bicycles. Every morning I went to his house and knocked on the door. Every morning Mike’s mum said,“I’m sorry. He’s a bit late this morning”, and so I had to wait. Each day we were late for school, and I remember the teacher got very annoyed with us. I never told her we were late because of Mike. Now, 25 years later, I play tennis with Mike. I usually drive him to the tennis club. I go to his flat and he opens the door and says,“I’m sorry. I’m a bit late today.”The only reason he wasn’t late for his own wedding is that we lied to him about the time!

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1It is curious that Stephen Koziatek feels almost as though he has to justify his efforts to give his students a better future.Mr. Koziatek is part of something pioneering. He is a teacher at a New Hampshire high school where learning is not something of books and tests and mechanical memorization,but practical. When did it become accepted wisdom that students should be able to name the 13th president of the United States but be utterly overwhelmed by a broken bike chain?As Koziatek knows, there is learning in just about everything. Nothing is necessarily gained by forcing students to learn geometry at a graffitied desk stuck with generations of discarded chewing gum. They can also learn geometry by assembling a bicycle.But he’s also found a kind of insidious prejudice. Workingwith your hands is seen as almost a mark of inferiority. Schoolsin the family of vocational education “have thatstereotype...that it’s for kids who can’t make it academically,”he says.On one hand, that viewpoint is a logical product of America’s evolution. Manufacturing is not the economic engine that itonce was. The job security that the US economy once offered tohigh school graduates has largely evaporated. More educationis the new principle. We want more for our kids, and rightfullyso.But the headlong push into bachelor’s degrees for all –and the subtle devaluing of anything less – misses an important point: That’s not the only thing the American economy need.Yes, a bachelor’s degree opens more doors. But even now, 54percent of the jobs in the country are middle-skill jobs, such asconstruction and high-skill manufacturing. But only 44 percentof workers are adequately trained.In other words, at a time when the working class has turnedthe country on its political head, frustrated that the opportunitythat once defined America is vanishing, one obvious solution isstaring us in the face. There is a gap in working-class jobs, butthe workers who need those jobs most aren’t equipped to do them. Koziatek’s Manchester school of Technology HighSchool is trying to fill that gap.Koziatek’s school is a wake-up call. When education becomes one-size-fits-all, it risks overlooking a nation’s diversity of gifts.21. A broken bike chain is mentioned to show students’lack of .[A] practical ability[B] academic training[C] pioneering spirit[D] mechanical memorization22. There exists the prejudice that vocational education isfor kids who .[A] have a stereotyped mind[B] have no career motivation[C] are not academically successful[D] are financially disadvantaged23. We can infer from Paragraph 5 that high schoolgraduates .[A] used to have big financial concerns[B] used to have more job opportunities[C] are reluctant to work in manufacturing[D] are entitled to more educational privileges24. The headlong push into bachelor's degrees for all .[A] helps create a lot of middle-skill jobs[B] may narrow the gap in working-class jobs[C] is expected to yield a better-trained workforce[D] indicates the overvaluing of higher education25. The author's attitude toward Koziatek’s school can be described as .[A] supportive[B] tolerant[C] disappointed[D] cautiousText 2While fossil fuels—still generate roughly 85 percent of the world’s energy supply, it’s clearer than ever that the futurebelongs to renewable sources such as wind and solar. The moveto renewables is picking up momentum around the world: Theynow account for more than half of new power sources going online.Some growth stems from a commitment by governmentsand farsighted businesses to fund cleaner energy sources. But increasingly the story is about the plummeting prices ofrenewables, especially wind and solar. The cost of solar panelshas dropped by 80 percent and the cost of wind turbines byclose to one-third in the past eight years.In many parts of the world renewable energy is already aprincipal energy source. In Scotland, for example, wind turbines provide enough electricity to power 95 percent of homes. Whilethe rest of the world takes the lead, notably China and Europe,the United States is also seeing a remarkable shift. In March, forthe first time, wind and solar power accounted for more than 10 percent of the power generated in the US, reported the USEnergy Information Administration.President Trump has underlined fossil fuels—especially coal —as the path to economic growth. In a recent speech in Iowa,he dismissed wind power as an unreliable energy source. Butthat message did not play well with many in Iowa, where windturbines dot the fields and provide 36 percent of the state’s electricity generation—and where tech giants like Microsoft are being attracted by the availability of clean energy to powertheir data centers.The question “What happens when the wind doesn’t blow or the sun doesn’t shine?” has provided a quick put-down for skeptics. But a boost in the storage capacity ofbatteries is making their ability to keep power flowing aroundthe clock more likely.The advance is driven in part by vehicle manufacturers, whoare placing big bets on battery-powered electric vehicles.Although electric cars are still a rarity on roads now, thismassive investment could change the picture rapidly in coming years.While there’s a long way to go, the trend lines for renewables are spiking. The pace of change in energy sources appears to be speeding up—perhaps just in time to have a meaningful effect in slowing climate change. What Washington does—or doesn’t do—to promote alternative energy may mean less and less at a time of a global shift in thought.26. The word “plummeting”(Line 3, Para. 2) is closest in meaning to .[A] stabilizing[B] changing[C] falling[D] rising27. According to Paragraph 3, the use of renewable energy in America .[A] is progressing notably[B] is as extensive as in Europe[C] faces many challenges[D] has proved to be impractical28. It can be learned that in Iowa, .[A] wind is a widely used energy source[B] wind energy has replaced fossil fuels[C] tech giants are investing in clean energy[D] there is a shortage of clean energy supply29. Which of the following is true about clean energy according to Paragraphs 5&6?[A] Its application has boosted battery storage.[B] It is commonly used in car manufacturing.[C] Its continuous supply is becoming a reality.[D] Its sustainable exploitation will remain difficult.30. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that renewable energy____.[A] will bring the USA closer to other countries.[B] will accelerate global environmental change.[C] is not really encouraged by the USA government.[D] is not competitive enough with regard to its cost.Text 3The power and ambition of the giants of the digital economy is astonishing-Amazon has just announced the purchase of the upmarket grocery chain Whole Foods for$l3.5bn,but two years ago Facebook paid even more than that to acquire the WhatsApp messaging service, which doesn't have any physical product at all. What WhatsApp offered Facebook was an intricate and finely detailed web of its users' friendships and social lives.Facebook promised the European commission then that it would not link phone numbers to Facebook identities, but it broke the promise almost as soon as the deal went through. Even without knowing what was in the messages, the knowledge of who sent them and to whom was enormously revealing and still could be. What political journalist, what party whip, would not want to know the makeup of the WhatsApp groups in which Therea May's enemies are currently plotting? Itmay be that the value of Whole Foods to Amazon is not so much the 460 shops it owns, but the records of which customers have purchased what.Competition law appears to be the only way to address these imbalances of power. But it is clumsy. For one thing, it is very slow compared to the pace of Change within the digital economy. By the time a problem has been addressed and remedied it may have vanished in the marketplace, to be replaced by new abuses of power. But there is a deeper conceptual problem, too. Competition law as presently interpreted deals with financial disadvantage to consumers and this is not obvious when the users of these services don't pay for them. The users of their Services are not their customers. That would be the people who buy advertising from them-and Facebook and Google, the two virtual giants, dominate digital advertising to the disadvantage of all other media and entertainment companies.The product they're selling is data, and we, the users, convert our lives to date for the benefit of the digital giants.Just as some ants farm the bugs called aphids for the honeydew the produce when they feed, so Google farms us for the data that our digital lives yield. Ants keep predatory insects away from where their aphids feed; Gmail keeps the spamme out of our inboxes. It doesn't feel like a human or democratic relationship, even if both sides benefit.31. According to Paragraph 1, Facebook acquired WhatsApp for its .[A] digital products[B] user information[C] physical assets[D] quality service32. Linking phone numbers to Facebook identities may .[A] worsen political disputes[B] mess up customer records[C] pose a risk to Facebook users[D] mislead the European commission33. According to the author, competition law .[A] should sever the new market powers[B] may worsen the economic imbalance[C] should not provide just one legal solution[D] cannot keep pace with the changing market34. Competition law as presently interpreted can hardlyprotect Facebook users because .[A] they are not defined as customers[B] they are not financially reliable[C] the services are generally digital[D] the services are paid for by advertisers35. The ants analogy is used to illustrate .[A] a win-win business model between digital giants[B] a typical competition pattern among digital giants[C] the benefits provided for digital giants ’customers[D] the relationship between digital giants and their usersText 4To combat the trap of putting a premium on being busy, CalNewport, author of Deep Work: Rules for Focused Success in aDistracted World, recommends building a habit of “deep work”-the ability to focus without distraction.There are a number of approaches to mastering the art ofdeep work- be it lengthy retreats dedicated to a specific task;developing a daily ritual; or taking a “journalistic” approachto seizing moment of deep work when you can throughout theday. Whichever approach, the key is to determine your lengthof focus time and stick to it.Newport also recommends “deep scheduling” to combat constant interruptions and get more done in less time. “At any given point, I should have deep work scheduled for roughly thenext mouth. Once on the calendar, I protect this time like Iwould a doctor’s appointment or important meeting”, he writes.Another approach to getting more done in less time is torethink how you priorities your day – in particular how we craftour to-do lists. Tim Harford, author of Messy: The Power ofDisorder to Transform Our Lives, points to a study in the early1980s that divided undergraduates into two groups: some wereadvised to set out monthly goals and study activities; otherswere told to plan activities and goals in much more detail, dayby day.While the researchers assumed that the well-structureddaily plans would be most effective when it came to theexecution of tasks, they were wrong: the detailed daily plans demotivated students .Harford argues that inevitabledistractions often render the daily to-do list ineffective, whileleaving room for improvisation in such a list can reap the bestresults.In order to make the most of our focus and energy, we alsoneed to embrace downtime, or as Newport suggests, “be lazy”.“Idleness is not just a vacation, an indulgence or a vice; it isas indispensable to the brain as vitamin D is to the body …”[idleness]is, paradoxically, necessary to getting any work done,”he argues.Srini Pillay, an assistant professor of psychiatry at HarvardMedical School, believes this counterintuitive link betweendowntime and productivity may be due to the may our brainsoperate. When our brains switch between being focused andunfocused on a task, they tend to be more efficient.“What people don’t realise is that in order to completethese tasks they need to use both the focus and unfocus circuitsin their brain,” says Pillay.36. The key to mastering the art of deep work is to .[A] keep to your focus time[B] list your immediate tasks[C] make specific daily plans[D] seize every minute to work37. The study in the early 1980s cited by Harford showsthat .[A] distractions may actually increase efficiency.[B] daily schedules are indispensable to studying[C] students are hardly motivated by monthly goals[D] detailed plans may not be as fruitful as expected38. According to Newport, idleness is .[A] a desirable mental state for busy people.[B] a major contributor to physical health[C] an effective way to save time and energy[D] an essential factor in accomplishing any work39. Pillay believes that our brains’ shift between being focused and unfocused .[A] can result in psychological well-being[B] can bring about greater efficiency[C] is aimed at better balance in work[D] is driven by task urgency40. This text is mainly about .[A] ways to relieve the tension of busy life[B] approaches to getting more done in less time[C] the key to eliminating distractions[D] the cause of the lack of focus timePart BDirections:Read the following text and answer the questions by choosing the most suitable subtitles from the list A-G for each numbered paragraph (41-45). There are two extra subtitles which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)A.Just say itB.Be presentC.Pay a unique compliment, places, thingsE.Find the “me too”sF.Skip the small talkG.Ask for an opinionFive ways to make conversation with anyoneConversations are links, which means when you have aconversation with a new person a link gets formed and everyconversation you have after that moment will strengthen thelink.You meet new people every day: the grocery worker, thecab driver, new people at work or the security guard at the door.Simply starting a conversation with them will form a link.Here are five simple ways that you can make the first moveand start a conversation with strangers.41、______________________________________________Suppose you are in a room with someone you don’t know and something within you says “I want to talk with this person”-this is something that mostly happens with all of us. Youwanted to say something-the first word –but it just won’tcome out, it feels like it is stuck somewhere. I know the feelingand here is my advice: just get it out.Just think: what is the worst that could happen? They won’t talk with you? Well, they are not talking with you now!I truly believe that once you get that first word outeverything else will just flow. So keep it simple: “Hi”,“Hey”or “Hello”- do the best you can to gather all of theenthusiasm and energy you can , put on a big smile and say“Hi”。

2018年电大考试人文英语2考试题及答案
19. If I ______ the mayor of the city, I would introduce severe punishment for crimes.
A.am
B.were
C.was
答案:B
译文:假如我是市长,我会采取严厉的手段来惩罚犯罪。
解析:本题考查虚拟语气的用法。这个句子里只是表达说话人的一个主观意愿,不是事实,因此用虚拟语气,表示与现在事实相反的情况时,从句谓语用were,所以答案是B。
C.I'm ill, so I shouldn't go out.
答案:B
解析:本题考查“表示询问”的交际用语。拒绝他人一般不直接说No,而要婉言谢绝(通常会说明理由),并要声明自己是愿意接受的,但由于某种原因不能接受,所以答案是B。
2. —Would you be interested in coming to the cinema with me tonight?
3. —The Internet is magic. Can we get everything from it?

英语II(1)期末复习资料——阅读理解1.选择题Once the king of India fell ill and sent for his doctor. The doctor came, examined him and said, “You will be well again in a few days if you take bull’s milk.” The king was very surprised, for he had never heard of a bull that ga ve milk. “How is it possible?” he asked.“Order Gulbo, the scholar, to get it for you. He can do anything.” The doctor was an enemy to Gulbo, and thought this would b e a way of making him suffer. When the king told Gulbo what the doctor had said and ordere d him to get bull’s milk, Gulbo immediately understood what the doctor was trying to do.When he got home he sat thinking how to get out of the difficulties. His daughter, seeing him worried, asked what was the matter. On hearing what the king had asked fo r, she said, “Don’t worry, father, I’ll help you.”The next day she took some old clothes, went to the bank of the river near the palace, and chose a place below the king’s bed room window. In the middle of the night, when everyone was in bed, she started to do her washing. She made so much noise that the king could not sleep. The king got very angry and set a guard to find out w hat was the matter. The soldier found the girl, and led her to the king. “Why do you wash your clothes here at night?” asked the ki ng.The girl pretended to be afraid and said, “I had to wash clothes at night. This afternoon my father had a baby. I was busy al l day because of that. Then I found there were no clean clothes for the baby, so I had to come and wash them now.”“What!” cried the king, “Are you trying to make a fool of me? Who ever heard of a man having a baby?”“Well, if the king himself orders someone to get bull’s milk for him, why can’t a man have a baby?”The king smiled and said, “You must be Gulbo’s daughter. Go and tell your father that he may keep the bull’s milk for his baby.”1. According to the doctor in the story, the king’s illness can be cured by ___B___.A. making Gulbo sufferB. drinking bull’s milkC. seeing another doctorD. feeding him with cow’s milk2. The doctor told the king to ask Gulbo to find bull’s milk because he ____B__.A. admired Gulbo greatlyB. hated Gulbo very muchC. thought Gulbo was a scholarD. tried to make Gulbo another doctor3. How did Gulbo feel after getting the king’s order?AA. He was upset.B. He was excited.C. He was surprised.D. He was disappointed.4. Why did Gulbo’s daughter wash clothes below the king’s bedroom window at night?DA. Because she was forced to do it.B. Because she often washed clothes there.C. Because she enjoyed washing clothes there.D. Because she wanted the king to notice her.5. From the dialogue between the king and the girl, we know that after hearing the girl’s story, the king ___D___.A. wanted to see the babyB. became angry with herC. thought the girl was a foolD. understood the girl’s meaningPeople all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by man’s release of completely new and often artificial (人造的) substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance (物质),such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up three of four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bot tles or tins which can’t be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metal and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess use and careless disposal (处理) of the products we use in our daily lives.1. The main cause of pollution is _____A_____.A. the release of artificial or natural substances into the environmentB. the production of new industrial goodsC. increased amounts of a natural substanceD. our ever-increasing population2. Much of the pollution could be controlled if only ___C_______.A. people would pay more attention to the problemB. governments would take effective measuresC. all sides concerned would make more effortsD. farmers would use less artificial fertilizers3. Food packages, bottles and tins for drinks can cause _______B___.A. air and water pollutionB. both a litter problem and a waster of resourcesC. to pay for the serviceD. to produce the receipt4. Which of the following can not help solving the problem of pollution?BA. Cutting out unnecessary buying.B. Eating.C. Reduce excess use.D. Carefully dispose our daily products.5. What does the underlined word “litter” mean in paragraph 2?CA. not manyB. serious problemC. bits of waste thingsD. industrial pollutionThousands of years ago, in the middle of an ocean, miles from the nearest island, an undersea volcano broke out. The hot liquid piled higher and higher and spread wider and wider. In this way, an island rose up in the sea.As time went on, hot sun and cool rains made the rock split and break to pieces. Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being.Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow first. Only they, in sunlight, could produce food from the minerals of the soil, water and air. While many animals landed on the island, they could find no food. A spider spun its web in vain, because there were no insects for its web to catch. Insects couldn’t stay until there were plants for them to eat. So plants had to be the pioneer life on this new island.1. The passage centers on _______D___.E. how an undersea volcano broke outF. how an island rose up in the seaG. how soil was formed on a new islandH. how life began on a volcano-produced island2.According to the passage, the island got its first soil from ______C____.A. sea wavesB. the sand brought by the windC. its own rockD. cool rains3.The word “naked” (in para. 3) could be replaced by which of the following?DA. hiddenB. newC. mysteriousD. bare4.The order of coming into being on the island is ____A______.A. soil, plants and animalsB. soil, little creatures and plantsC. soil, birds and plantsD. soil, human beings and animals5. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE ?CA. Spiders were the first life that could live on the island.B. The island is far away from any piece of land.C. Insects could not live on the island without plants.D. Plants were brought to the island by human being.In 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 by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced 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”of 1845-6, and thousands more were forced to emigrate 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 large st grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a goatherd name Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-aw ake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.1. According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years? AA. Food C. PotatoB. Chocolate D. Coffee2. “Some” in “Some still exist today” means ____C_____.A. some cocoa trees C. some shopsB. some chocolate drinks D. some South American Indians3. Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine” because ___D______.A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB. they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD. the potato harvest was bad4. Coffee originally came from___C______.A. BrazilB. ColombiaC. EthiopiaD. Arabia5. The Arabic legend is used to prove that ____D_____.A. coffee was first discovered by KaldiB. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi’s goatsC. coffee was first discovered in south American countriesD.coffee drinks were first made by ArabsCrime Prevention InitiativesThe chances that you will be a victim of violent crime are low. But you can avoid risk in the following ways.AT HOME·You should make sure your house or flat is secure. Always lock the door from the inside at night, but you must keep the key nearby, so that you can use it to get out quickly if there is a fire.·You must never give keys to workmen as they can easily make copies.·If you wake up and hear a burglar, stay quietly in bed. Pretend you are asleep. If you feel more confident, switch on the light and make a lot of noise; even if you are on your own you should call out loudly to an imaginary companion, so that the burglar thinks you are not alone and runs away. You should have a phone or a mobile in your bedroom to alert the police immediately.·If you come home and think you see signs of a break-in, you shouldn’t go in, the burglar may be inside. You should go to a neighbour and call the police.ON THE STREETAt night:·Always walk facing the traffic, so that a car cannot pull up behind you.·You mustn’t go through parks or woods.·If you think someone is following you, cross the road one or two times. If he or she continues to follow you, go to a pub or other public place.·Always carry your bag close to you, but carry your house keys in your pocket so that you can open the door quickly. If someone attacks you - remember your safety is more important than your property.1. This passage mainly focuses on _____A___.A. how to avoid the crimes both at home and in the streetB. where to stay if you want to be safeC. what you should do at home if there is a burglaryD. how to avoid the crime at night in the street2. If you want to guarantee you are secure at home, you should ___B______.A. always lock the door and put the key in a secret place far away from the doorB. never leave the keys to workmen since they can easily make copiesC. keep silent all the time even if you are on your own when a burglar steals into yourhouseD. go in immediately when you suspect (怀疑) someone is breaking into your house3. Based on the passage, if you notice someone following you, it’s better for you to______B___.A. shout loudlyB. go to public placesC. stop, turn around and look at himD. run quickly4. Why should you have a telephone in the bedroom?A. Because we might use it to alert the burglary. CB. Because it’s convenient for us to talk to our friends while lying on bed.C. Because it’s convenient for us to report to the police in case there is a burglary.D. Because it we might use it to make a phone call at midnight.5. From the passage, we can infer that we might be victims if ____A_____.A. we cannot part with the money when being attackedB. we always walk facing the trafficC. we don’t walk in the empty streetD. we carry too much cashAn Extraordinary Change of DirectionMolly Wilson had been a dancer and a mother for many years when she decided to sail round the world to raise money for charity.As a child she had trained as a ballet dancer, but at 15 she had grown too tall for classical ballet, so she became a member of a pop dance team.She got married, and after she had children she retired from show business to bring them up. They grew up, and when they were 18 they left home.She says, “When I decided to do the round-the-world race, my husband thought I was bored because the children had left home. He was also worried because I had never sailed before. I was not bored, but I had met some people who told me about the race.They had taken part in it, but they had only done one section, say, from New Zealand to Australia. I wanted to do the whole ten-month journey.”Before Molly left she did a lot of training, but it hadn’t prepared her for the worst weather which they experienced. She tells one story. “One night the sea was very rough and it was very cold. I had gone downstairs when a huge wave smashed into the boat and injured two men on the deck. One of the men couldn’t move because he had broken his leg. They were taken to hospital by helicopter. That was the worst time.”By the end of October last year, she had raised more than £50,000 for charity.She says, “Sometimes I ask myself, what did I do? How did I do it? But then I think, it’s the same as being a dancer. Before I left on the trip, I had trained hard. I had got very fit and had prepared myself completely. Then on the trip I was simply a good team member.”1. What does the word “extraordinary” mean in the title? BA. very ordinaryB. very unusual and surprisingC. not specialD. extreme2. The sentence “…my husband thought I was bored …” in Para. 4 meant that myhusband thought I felt_A________.A. dissatisfied because I had nothing better to do at homeB. annoyed because I had to wait long for my children to come back homeC. happy because I could do something I was interested in instead of taking care ofchildrenD. sad because all the children left me when they grew up3. The word “section” in Para. 4 most probably means here ____C_____.A. group of peopleB. part of the trainingC. part of the route of sailD. part of the job4. Which of the following is nearest (closest) in me aning to “rough” in the sentence “One night the sea was very rough …” in Para. 5?CA. not exactB. difficultC. not smooth because of huge wavesD. pleasant5. The last paragraph suggests that _____A____.A. the qualities she needed for the trip were the same as those for a dancerB. many years of dancing had already prepared her for the sail completely, so sheneedn’t do anything before the journeyC. she should be kind to other team members during the tripD. she should not forget dancing during the tripThere have been changes in all sorts of different areas of British society. In recent years in the UK we have had a very large increase in the number of couples who get divorced.After 1969 and the Divorce Law Reform Act we had a very rapid increase in the number of divorces. The rate increased steadily and in recent years has increased much more rapidly. But there are also quite a lot of people who do actually get married. At present the marriage rate in the UK is about 70 per cent, which has gone down since the number of people who marry has gone down quite a lot in the last 20 years, but more significantly in the last 10 years. Quite high proportions of people now live together without marrying, and, for example, 40 per cent of children born in the UK are born to couples who aren't married or are born to lone parents. There are quite a large number of lone parent families, 90 per cent of these are headed by a woman rather than a man.The average family size now in the UK is 1.8 children per couple, which means that there's been quite a decline in the birth rate in the UK along with other European countries.C1. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The declining divorce rate in the UK.B. The declining marriage rate in the UK.C. The increasing divorce rate in the UK.D. Trends in marriage and divorce in the UK.2. During the last ten years, ____A______.A. the marriage rate has gone down more rapidly in the UKB. the marriage rate has gone up a lot in the UKC. 40% of children were born to unwed couples in the UKD. 40% of children were born to single parents in the UK3. According to the passage, the cohabitation rate in the UK tends to ______B___.A. declineB. soar (急剧上升)C. stay stableD. not mentioned in the passage4. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true? AA. The highest divorce rate was around 1969.B. The marriage rate has gone down in recent years.C. The marriage rate is currently 70 percent.D. 90 percent of lone parent families are headed by women.5. The last paragraph tells us _____D_____.A. the birth rate in the UK is increasing at the momentB. at present any family in the UK is 2 children at mostC. the birth rate in other European countries keeps increasingD. the birth rate in the UK is decreasing rapidly nowSome people think they have an answer to the troubles of automobile crowding and dirty air in large cities. Their answer is t he bicycle, or “bike”.In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example, they want the city to draw bicycle lanes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders have to use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents. Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea - they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. Only on weekends, Central Park is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only. But Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.1. According to the passage, bicycles ____D________.A. are more convenient than carsB. are safer traffic tools than carsC. are ridden by most people in the U.SD. are the solution to some city problems2. The idea of special bicycle lanes is most favored by ____B________.A. the city governmentB. some bike ridersC. people living far from downtownD. some store owners3. “Bicycle lanes” in the third paragraph probably means ___C________.A. narrow passages between buildings for bicyclesB. roads full of bicyclesC. special parts of the road for bicycle riders onlyD. roads for bicycles only4. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. Bike for a Better City members ride bicycles to work. ___D____B. Sometimes accidents may occur when cars and bikes are on the same lanes.C. The Central Park is closed to cars on weekends.D. In New York City, many people use bikes as they have special lanes.5. The best title for this passage is ___D_________.A. Traffic Crowding in New York CityB. Air Pollution in New York City by CarsC. Special Lanes for PassengersD. Solution to Traffic Problem in New York2、正误判断题“Get up, the water is coming.” Yan Xinzhi, director of the neighborhood committee of Chaoyang Street, Taiyuan, capital of Sha nxi Province, would knock at the door of every household at midnight to have people collect water; otherwise, the tap water would soon run dry when everyone in the city got up and joined the “water rush” in the morning. Yan, an elderly lady about 60, had served as committee director for more than 20 years; her major work was to rou se her neighbors from their sleep to get water. As time went by, residents could not go to sleep before one o’clock in the mo rning.Chaoyang Street was not the only street in Taiyuan that lacked water, and Taiyuan was not the only city in China with water in short supply.Niu Maosheng, Minister of Water Resources, told China Today that more than 300 cities nationwide lack water; in 118 cities the situation has become critical. The annual deficit of water has reached 6 billion cubic meters, leading to a loss of RMB 200 billion (approximately US $24 billion) in industrial output.T1.

The passage reveals that all the cities in China suffer from water shortage.3. The passage is written by a water expert.F4.

Most color-blind people can see yellow and blues, but confuse reds with greens. It is very rare for a person to be blind to all colors, but they may see everything in shades of black, white, and gray.It is interesting to note that many color-blind people don’t even realize that they are color-blind. They don’t know that the colors they are seeing and naming are not the actual colors that people with normal vision can see. This can be particularly dangerous when a color-blind person confuses the red and green of a traffic light.Color blindness is thought to be inherited (遗传). And although doctors have thought up tests to determine(测定)color blindness, there is no cure to treatment for it.F1. A color-blind person can tell correctly red and green.T2. Many color-blind people are unaware (没意识到) that they are color-blind.F3. It’s especially dangerous for a color-blind person to cross a street when there are no traffic lights at the cross of the streets.NG4. A person who is color-blind is not allowed to drive.F5. Up to now, doctors have found a way to free a person from his color blindness.答案F T F NG FLily is 70 years old and she takes care of her 91-year-old mother. She told us about caring for her mother.I wake up early every day, it’s usually about 6.30 am, and wait until I hear Tilly, my mum, moving about. Then I make her a c up of tea. At about half past seven she gets up and we have breakfast together. We normally just have toast, but on Sundays we always have bacon and eggs. After breakfast she reads the newspaper, then she sits by the window and waves to the neighbours as they walk by.She hardly ever goes out but she is very proud of her personal appearance, so she goes to the hairdresser once a month.She doesn’t like being left on her own for very long, so I always arrange for a neighbour to come and sit with her when I go out. Now and again, my friend and neighbour, Joan, comes to spend the day with her, and I can go and have lunch with another friend, May, who lives in town.I have a brother, Syd. He comes to stay two or three times a year. He is very good and keeps in touch, but he lives 300 miles away. Once a year, he collects mum and takes her to stay with him in London fora week. She doesn’t really like going because it’s a long journey, but I need the rest.Sally, the nurse, comes to see mum regularly. My next-door neighbour, Jack, often calls in. In the evening we usually watch TV and we sometimes play cards. Mum is fantastic for her age. But I can never decide to go anywhere spontaneously. I always have to plan it, so I feel a bit trapped.

Joan sometimes spends the day with Lily's mother.F4. Lily's brother comes to visit every three weeks.F5. Lily and her mother play cards more than they watch TV.答案T NG T F FBenjamin Disraeli, the famous nineteenth century prime minister, said, “London is not a city, it is a nation.” Today this is an understatement; London, with its vast range of different ethnic groups, is a world. Certainly, London is the most culturally diverse city in the world. The city was founded by the Romans and since then new arrivals have constantly added to its character and prosperity.Within 10 years 40% of Londoners will be from ethnic minority groups, including the growing number of Londoners of mixed ethnic origin, but most of them will have been born in Britain. Children of Caribbean-Chinese marriages will go to school with children of Russian-Irish couples. None of them will be English, but all of them will be Londoners.Most of Britain's ethnic minority residents live in the capital, speaking over 300 languages. Nearly all of the African population and many of the Caribbean population of Britain live in London (83% and 58% respectively); 39% of the Chinese population of Britain and 36% of the Asian population of Britain live in London. The largest migrant community is from the Irish Republic with 256,000 people, 3.8% of the total population of London.There are an estimated 330,000 refugees and asylum seekers living in London, with most recent arrivals coming from Eastern Europe, North Africa and Kurdistan.Young people, in particular, are skilled at dealing with a large number of different and hybrid cultures. They themselves often have several different ethnic identities since their parents and grandparents may come from several different backgrounds, and their friends and par tners do also. They are “skilled cross-cultural travellers” without leaving their home-town.F1. London is a nation.T2. The city of London was founded by the Romans.F3. All African population live in London.F4. 39% of the total population of London are Chinese.NG5. Old people are also “skilled cross-cultural travelers”.答案F T F F NG。

Some children in the hospital must stay in bed for many weeks. Toys are needed to keep the sick children happy and quiet. Money for them can be sent to the hospital.After Mrs. Weeks read the story,she said,"This story gave me an idea.""You want us to bring some money for the toys."

Whatever your budget is the choice -from basic barn to small hotel, from tiny cottage to grand castle - is all part of fun. HostelsCheap, good-value hostels are aimed at all types of like-minded travelers, who prefer value over luxury and you don't have to be young or single to use them. Britain's independent hostels and backpackers hostels also offer a great welcome. Facilities and prices vary, especially in rural areas, where some hostels are a little more than a bunkhouse (临时住房) while others are remarkably comfortable - almost like bargain hotels.Youth HotelsFounded many years ago to "help all, especially young people of limited means, to a greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside", the Youth Hotels Association is still going strong in the 21st century. The network of 230 hotels is a perfect gateway for exploring Britain's towns and countryside.B&BsThe B&B (bed and breakfast) is a Great British institution, In essence you get a room in somebody's house, and small B&Bs may only have one guest room, so you'll really feel like part of the family. Larger B&Bs may have four or five rooms and more facilities, but just as warm as a welcome.In country areas your B&B might be in a village or an isolated farm surrounded by fields. Prices reflect facilities: and usually run from around £12 to £20 per person. City B&Bs charge about £25 to £30 per person, although they're often cheaper as you go further out to the suburbs.Pubs & InnsAs well as selling drinks and meals, Britain's pubs and inns sometimes offer B&B, particularly in country areas. Staying a night or two can be great fun and puts youat the heart of the local community.Rates range from around £15 to £25 per person. Pubs are more likely to have single rooms.(1)、In this passage the author mainly ________.A:tells us where to stay while visiting BritainB:advises readers to pay a visit to BritainC:introduces the wonderful public services in BritainD:gives us some information about British life答案: A(2)、________ are mainly built for young visitors.A:Pubs & InnsB:Youth HotelsC:HostelsD:B&Bs答案: B(3)、If you travel alone and want to know better about family life in Britain, you'd better stay in ________.A:Pubs & InnsB:Youth HotelsC:HostelsD:B&Bs答案: D(4)、If you are interested in travelling with your friends but only with limited means, where is the better place for you to stay? _________.A:Pubs & InnsB:Youth HotelsC:HostelsD:B&Bs答案: C(5)、Which of the following is NOT true according to the last part of the passage? __________A:Pubs and inns usually provide visitors bed and breakfast.B:all pubs and inns offer visitors bed and breakfast.C:Pubs and inns charge a visitor £25 at the most.D:If you want a single room, you are more likely to get one in pubs.答案: B三、词汇与语法1、I have been looking forward to ____ from my parents.A:hearB:being heardC:be heardD:hearing答案: D2、He has been ______ for nearly three weeks after the death of his dear pet.
