Reading Comprehension (50%)Directions: There are 4 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 write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Passage OnePopulation tends to grow at an exponential(指数的)rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate take one penny and double every day for one month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cent, but after the fourth week you would have over a million dollars.This helps explain why the population has come on“all of a sudden”took from he beginning of human 1ife to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That repents(缓慢进行) a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960 only thirty years and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion which is another billion people in only fifteen years.World population is increasing at a rate of 9, 000per hour, 220,000 per day and 80 million per year. This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number of births has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are doubling their population about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of 3.3 percent a year or more. The United States is doubling its population about very eighty-seven years, with a rate of 0.8 percent per year. （81）Every time a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food and medicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult to achieve for the more rapidly growing countries.41. This passage chiefly discussesA. the growth of world population.B. one type of the exponential rate.C. the population problem of more rapidly growing countries.D. the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth.42. According to the passage what helps to explain why the population problem has come on “all of a sudden”?A. The penny that doubles itself every day for one month.B. The time span of at 1east two million years in human history.C. An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the author.D. The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week.43. It took for the world to increase its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.A. 100 yearsB. 175 yearsC. 1975 yearsD. over two million years44. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minute.B. Lower death rate also contributes to world population growth.C. The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 years.D. The United States is usually doubling its population on about every 87 years.45. When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything including __.A. hospitals and medicinesB. schools and studentsC. food and manpower resourcesD. all of the aboveQuestions 46 to 50 based on the following passage:Passage TwoWomen are on the whole more verbal than men. They are good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning. while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial(视空)abilities. In fact, along with aggression these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology(神经生理学), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain males are specialists while women are generalists.But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial and it’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to beextensions of their identity. （82）A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.46. According to the passage, women are usually good at_____.A. body languageB. logical reasoningC. tasks demanding for the use of wordsD. both A and B47. The word "accepted” in the last sentence of the first paragraph, roughly means_____.A. believedB. assumedC. receivedD. reconciled48. In the author’s opinion, visual and spatial abilities are good for______.A. achieving one’s objects.B. mind and body.C. programming talents into the brain.D. imagination and communication.49. All the following tasks involve visual-spatial abilities EXCEPT____.A. imagining and handling objects.B. providing a computer with a set of instructionsC. shooting a gun and driving an automobileD. planning and making things as an engineer does50. Why do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves?A. Because they have no visual-spatial skills.B. Because they are only good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning.C. Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspects.D. Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles, computers, etc.Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Passage ThreeThe US. government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers of earthquakes by publishing a map. This map shows the chances of an earthquake in each part of the country. （83）The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake “belt”. The government is, spending a great deal money and is working hard to help discover the answer to these two questions: l. Can we predict earthquake? 2. Can we control earthquakes?To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault(断层)systems in the country such as the San Andreas fault in California, a fault is break between two sections of the earth’s surface. These breaks between sections are the place where earthquake occurs.Scientists look at the faults for changes that might show that an earthquake was about to occurs. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes accurately. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.Nevertheless, there have been some interesting developments in the field of controlling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes.Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4000 meters below surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection of water, there were a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other. When the water“oiled”the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was released. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a connection between injection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big destructive earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change one big earthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes.51. Earthquake belts are .A. maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occurB. zones with a high probability of earthquakesC. breaks between two sections of the earth’s surfaceD. the two layers of earth along a fault52. The San Andreas’ fault is .A. an active fault systemB. a place where earthquakes have been predicted accuratelyC. a place where earthquake have been controlledD. the location of the Rocky Mountain53. What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal？A. They occur at bout 4000 meters below ground levelB. The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurring.C. They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.D. Harmful earthquakes can be possibly prevented by causing small harmless earthquake.54. What can be said about the experiments at Rocky Mountain Arsenal?A. They have no practical value in earthquake prevention.B. They may have practical value in earthquake prevention.C. They are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.D. he article does not say anything about their practical value in earthquake prevention.55. What is the most appropriate title for the passage?A. Dangers of EarthquakeB. Earthquake Belts and PredictionC. Earthquake Prediction and ControlD. Earthquake Engineering in CaliforniaQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:Passage FourSporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior. Viewed biologically, the modern footballer is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey into a goalmouth. If his aim is accurate and he scores a goal, he enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey.To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look back at our forefathers. They spent over a million years evolving(进化) as Cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting field. （84）Under this pressure their whole way of life, even their bodies, became greatly changed：They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attack.Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting the food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life was put to a new use——that of controlling and domesticating (驯养) their prey. The hunt became suddenly out of date. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.(85)The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets. Hunting for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting sequences(后果), but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skill against prey that was no longer essential to their survival. To be sure, the kill may have been eaten, but there were other purposes, much simpler of obtaining a meaty meal.56. What is the main idea of the passage?A.Hunting is very important in human civilization.B.Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern society.C.It’s hunting that provides human beings with food.D.The importance of sporting activities in modern society.57. According to the author, sporting activities .A. are essential to the survivalB. have actually developed from huntingC. evolve as biological developmentD. are football games58. For over a million years. our forefathers were basically .A. skillful sportsmenB. successful farmersC. runners and jumpersD. cooperating hunters59. The word“operation (Par. 4)refers to .A. sports activitiesB. huntingC. farmersD. prey killing60. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The goalmouth is equal to the weapon in hunting.B. Without hunting our forefathers couldn’t live.C. After our forefathers became farmers they still hunted for food.D. Farmers are satisfied with stable lives and they didn’t have enthusiasm for hunting any moreIII. Cloze Test (20分)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

The right side controls our imagination;it controls our understanding of music and our sense of rhythm.It is the right side of our brain which makes daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar:they both use the two sides of their brain.It is well-known that Albert Einstein as a great scientist also enjoyed art,playing the violin and sailing.Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis reason and language.He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking.He got ideas by using his imagination.He then used the left side of brain to use analysis.number and reason and then he used language to explain it.Usual education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our nguage, number,analysis and reasons are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.In fact,all of us need both sides of our brain.We need to use or imaginations to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy feeling and creative experiences.And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to live in this world.It is true that some people find it easier to use one side of the brain rather than the otherbut all of us can use both sides and all of us benefit by using all the powers we have. Nietzsche,the well-known philosopher,said that we add to our knowledge by making conscious the unconscious.66.According to the passage, of our brain controls our understanding of music.A.the left sideB.the right sideC.both sideD.neither side67.Albert Einstein's example is used to support the idea that .A.all scientific discoveries are based on imagination.B.people should do nothing but daydreaming two sides of brain is importantD.scientists are good at imagining what may happen68.It is implied in the passage that school education .A.suggests using both sides at the brainB.finds it very important to have daydreamsC.claims that analysis and reason are of no valueD.fails to develop the sight side of the brain69.What did Nietzsche soy about adding to the knowledge we have?A.Learning happens when we are not conscious.B.Learning happens when we make unconscious decisions.C.Learning happens when we become aware of things inside us.D.Learning happens when we think about things logically.70.The author's attitude toward using two sides of the brain is .A.positiveB.neutralC.illogicalD.criticalPassage ThreeFor many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and magazines:a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job or advancing one,the ability to read and comprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age,and never get over them The main problem lies in language itself-words.Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases,sentences and paragraphs. Unfortunately,however,the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He reads one word at a time,often regressing to reread words or passages.Regression or looking back over what you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization-sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits.some reading clinics use a device called accelerator (加速器)which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate than the reader finds comfortable,in order to "stretch"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast making word by word reading,regression and vocalization virtually impossible.At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas, you will not only read faster but your comprehension will improved.Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some training.71.According to the passage,today many people no longer read for .A.newsB.their workrmationD.entertainment72.Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly because .A.they don't read groups of wordsB.they don't like to be trained in reading skillsC.they don't realize they have pour reading habitsD.they don't understand words when out together73.The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPT .A.regressionB.reading for ideas onlyC.vocalizationD.word by word reading74.How does an accelerator help people to read?A.It helps people read at a comfortable speed.B.It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.C.It forces people to overcome bad reading habitsD.It lets people look back over what they have just read.75.What does "At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed."mean?A.The reader reads fast,but he understands everything he reads.B.The reader reads slowly,and he understands everything he reads.C.The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.D.The reader reads slowly,but he doesn't understand everything he reads.Passage FourWhen the dog named Juddy spotted the first sheen in her life she did what cones naturally.The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and being a city animal,lost both her sheep and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of cliff （悬崖）and fell 100 feet bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and celled the coastguard of Cornwall who turned up in seconds.Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home fromhis holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the neat two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve Tregear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.A birdwatcher.armed with a telescope found the pet sitting desperately on a rock While he sounded the alarm,the student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious（失去知觉的）but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge."The dog was very thin and hungry"Steve Tregear said,"it was a very dog.She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water",he added.It was,.as Mr.Holden admitted,“a minor miracle（奇迹）”76.The dog Judy fell down the cliff when she was .A.rescuing her ownerB.caught in a hurricaneC.blocked by a rockD.running after a sheep77.Who spotted Judy after the accident?A.bird watcherB.A student from LeedsC.Six volunteersD.The coastguard of Cornwall78.What can be inferred from the passage?A.People like to travel with their pets.B.Judy was taken to the fields for huntingC.Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.D.Holden cared little where Judy was buried.79.According to the passage,which of the following statements is Not True?A.Mr.Holden called the coastguard after his dog fell down the cliff.B.Judy was strong and healthy when she was foundC.People thought Judy died after a 90-minute search.D.Judy survived because she had fresh water and food.80.The best title for the passage can be.A.Miracle of the Coastguard.B.Surviving a HurricaneC.Dangers in the wild.D.A narrow Escape.III.Translation (20 points)Directions:In this part,there is one paragraph in English.Read the paragraph carefully andtranslate it into Chinese.How should we react to disasters?I think it is reasonable to face them.No one expects disasters,but if they come,they are there,and we must accept them as they are.In this way it might

Reading ComprehensionDirections: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by five 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 centre.Passage OneMost American people hate repeating the same work endlessly, especially those who live in West America. They try their best to make their life colorful and their workinteresting. If they haveto do the same regular work, they’ll try to do it in different ways. Repetition and monotony ( 单调 )are what they can't stand.In the West of America, there is a beautiful old mountain village which is well known for its straw hats. The villagers there can make different styles of hats—hats for old gentlemen, for sweet and playful children, and for beautiful young ladies. People often go there to buy hats.One day there came a young tourist who entered a hat shop and found a very nice hat that cost five dollars. He said to the shop-keeper,”If you agree to sell at a cheaper price, I'd like to buy two hundred hats of this style.”“No, you should pay me at least ten dollars each if you wish to get so many hats of the same style.”“How's that?” The tourist could not understand.“Well,” said the shop-keeper, “if you buy only one hat of this style, I can make it easily. If you order two hundred hats of different styles, I can also manage the business without much difficulty. However, it will almost bore me to death if you want me to make two hundred hats of the same style. So at least you pay me double price.”61.We can learn from the story that .A.only the straw hats of the same style were soldB.most American people don't want to do the same work again and againC.the straw hats were sold only in the mountain villageD.the price will be cheaper if you buy a lot of hats of the same style62.How much did the nice hat cost?A. $5B. $10C. $15D. $2063.The answer of the shop-keeper really made the tourist .A.frightenedB. pleasedC. puzzledD. delighted64.Why did the shop-keeper ask the tourist to pay him double price?A.Because the shop-keeper couldn't make two hundred hats of the same style.B.Because the shop-keeper couldn't stand repeating the same work endlessly.C.Because the shop-keeper didn't want to sell him so many hats.D.Because the shop-keeper hadn't enough straw to make the hats.63.“It will bore me almost to death” in Paragraph 5 means that .A.it would be too expensive for the shop-keeperB.the shop-keeper was bored and would die at once C the shop-keeper was dyingD. it would be too boring for the shop-keeperPassage TwoIt is exciting to apply for a job that really appeals to you. In making your application, there are a number of points for you to observe.In your letter of application, say just enough to give a good account of yourself without being wordy. If you are answering an advertisement, any information for which it asks must, of course, be given. This will usually cover your academic record and any further education and training. You may also be asked to give the names of one or two persons to supply references. For this purposeyou should choose people who know you well enough to vouch(保证) for your character and ability;and to be polite, you should seek in advance their permission to be named as referees.It will depend on circumstances how much you can carefully add about yourself. Your purpose is to bring to the notice of the employer any good reason why you rather than any of the other applicants should be chosen for the job. Therefore, if you feel you have any special skill or talent for the work, or particular interest in theline of business. let it be known.Finally, there is your use of language. You cannot go wrong if you keep your sentences and paragraphs short, making sure the sense is clear and well-expressed. Choose plain words so long as they convey the meaning.66.The aim of writing a letter of application is to .A.indicate why you are the most suitable for the jobB.reveal to the employer your academic recordC.show your character and abilityD.give more information about yourself67.In your letter of application, try to .A.keep it as long as possibleB.give more information about your education and trainingC.cover more of your academic recordD.say briefly with enough information68.The author suggests you choose words so long as they express your meaning.A.beautifulB. plainC. specialD. particular69.The underlined word “referees” in Paragraph 2 refers to people .A.who examine the application lettersB.who write reference books for the employeesC.who solve problems for the employersD.who give you reference letters70.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A.Making a Job Application.B. Effective Letter Writing.C. Writing Letters to Employers.D. Writing for Advertisements.Passage ThreeDoctors have known for a long time that extremely loud noises can cause hearingdamage or loss. The noise can be the sound of a jet airplane or machines in factories or loud music or other common sounds found at home or at work. A person only needs to hear the noise for a little more than one second to be affected. An American scientist has found that using aspirin can increase the temporary hearing loss or damage from loud noise. He did an experiment, using a number of male students at a university who all had normal hearing. He gave them different amounts of aspirin for different periods of time, and then he tested their hearing ability. He found that the students who were given four grams of aspirin a day for two days suffered much greater temporary hearing loss than those who did not use aspirin. The hearing loss was about two times as great. The scientist said millions of people in the United States use much larger amounts of aspirin than were used in the study. He said these people face a serious danger of suffering hearing loss from loud noise.71.Hearing damage or loss may be caused by .A.loud musicB. the sound of a jet airplane or machinesC. common sounds at home or at workD. all of the above72.The passage suggests that one's hearing .A.will be damaged even if he hears a loud noise for a little more than one secondB.will be damaged even if he hears a loud noise for a little less than one secondC.will not be damaged even if he hears a loud noise for a little more than one secondD.will not be damaged even if he hears a loud noise for a little less than one second73.According to this passage, we can draw a conclusion that aspirin . A.should never be taken more than four grams a dayB.makes hearing damage from noise worseC.decreases hearing damage by two timesD.should never be taken for more than two dayslions of Americans are in danger of suffering hearing loss from loud noise because they .A. take too much aspirinB. like listening to loud musicC. make loud noise at home and at workD. often take jet airplanes75.The scientist found from his experiment that a day for two days would affect a person's hearing.A. one gram of aspirinB. two grams of aspirinC. three grams of aspirinD. four grams of aspirinPassage FourAncient people had little idea of the nature of the earth's surface. But if they lived on the seashore, they knew that there was land and sea.People who lived near the sea noticed that there were two kinds of land. There were, first, little pieces of land surrounded by sea. One Latin word for “sea” is “salum”, which means “salt”. This isbecause sea water, unlike rain-water, contains salt—it is salty. So a piece of land in the sea was “insalt” in Latin, and this became isle in English.Then there was another kind of land that went on and on. It was “continuous land, and so became known as continent in English from the Latin “continēnts”meaning continuous. In English, we also speak of a continent as the mainland (“main” comes from the Latin “magnus” meaning “ great”), as opposed to island( isle-land).To the ancient Greek, there seemed to be three continents separated by sea. The Mediterranean Sea, in fact, gets its name from the Latin “medius”(middle) and “terra” (land). It was a sea that layin the middle, with three bodies of land around it. The three continents—Asia, Europeand Africa—are actually connected by land. Africa and Asia are connected by only the small Sinai Isthmus, from the Greek “isthmus”meaning “a narrow passage”, but Europe and Asia are connected by land for a thousand miles or more and it is customary to speak of Europe as a continent. Many geographers speak of the landmass of Asia plus Europe as Eurasia, and Eurasia plus Africa is sometimes called the World Island. The three together are surrounded by sea, so they form a large island, and they contain about 85 percent of the earth's population.76.People in ancient times knew .A. a lot about land and seaB. some continents were connectedC. little about the surface of the earthD. many people lived on the World Island77.The word “continent” comes from language.A.the LatinB. the RomanC. the GreekD. the Hebrew78.“Eurasia” is the name for the continents of .A.Europe and AsiaB. Europe and AfricaC. Africa and AsiaD. Europe, Asia and Africa79.What connects Asia and Africa?A. A small island.B. A large desert.C. A narrow passage.D. A wide land.80.About 85% of the population in the world are living .A.in EuropeB. in AsiaC. in EurasiaD. on the World IslandPart III. TranslationDirections: In this part, there is one passage in English. Read the passage carefully and translate it into Chinese.Learning English has been almost a painful experience for me, one that I wouldn’t trade for anything. Not only did learning English teach me the value of hard work, but also gave meinsights( 领悟) into another culture. The most exciting result of having learned English is that I amable to communicate with many more people than before. Talking with people is my favorite activity, so the newly learned language allows me to meet new people, participate in conversations, and form new and unforgettable friendships.Part IV. WritingDirections: For this part, you are required to write a composition of 120 to 180 words. Your writing should be based on the title and outline given below.College Students' Doing Part-time Jobs1.大学生做兼职的益处;2.大学生做兼职的弊端;3.你的看法。

your favorite color?We are all sensitive to color.There are some colors we like a lot and some we don't like at all.Some colors comfort us,others excite us,some make us happy,and others make us sad.People are affected by color more than they realize because color is tied to all aspects of our lives.Experts in colorogenic,the study of the language of color,believe that the colors we wear say a lot about us.Do you know why you select a shirt or dress of a certain color when you look through your c lothes in the morning?Colorogenic experts say that we unconsciously choose to wear certain colors in order to communicate our desires,emotions,and needs.Colorogenic experts claim that our clothes send messages to others about our mood,personality,a nd desires.Pink expresses the peace and contentment of the wearer.People who often wear pink are s upposed to be warm and understanding.The message is that you would like to share your peace and ha ppiness with others.Red garments,on the other hand,indicate a high level of physical energy.People who wear red like to take life at a fast pace.Brown is the color of wealth,and it shows a need for indep endence and material security.Wearers of green have a love of nature and enjoy peaceful moments.Th ey often like to be left alone with their thoughts.Although colorogenic may be a recent area of study,a ssociating colors with emotions is not new.Colors have always been used to describe not only our feeli ngs but also our physical health and attudes."Red with rage describes anger;in the pink means to be in good health;feeling blue is a sad way to feel;and"green with envy indicates a jealous attude.In conclusion,the study of color can help us to understand ourselves and to improve our lives.It o ffers an alternative way to heal the body and spirit,and it can help us understand what others are trying to communicate.61.Why are people affected by color more than they realize?A.colors make people more sensitive.B.colors bring people different feelings.C.colors are everywhere in people's lives.D.colors give people excitement.答案：C62.According to the passage,_____.A.people wear different colors to show their feelings.B.people communicate better when wearing their favorite colors.C.people like to wear different colors in the morning.D.people choose different colors without knowing they do it purposely.答案：D63.The underlined word"contentment"in Para3means"___"in Chinese.A.满意B.目录C.内容D.容量答案：A64.From the passage,people____want to share peace and happiness.A.who wear green clothesB.who wear pink clothesC.who wear blue clothesD.who wear white clothes答案：B65.Why is the study of color useful in our life?A.Because it helps us to express our ideas more clearly.B.Because it helps us to control our emotions and desires.C.Because it helps us to feel happier and more excited.D.Because it helps us to understand ourselves and others.答案：DPassage TwoRoger Sperry and Robert Einstein of the California Institute of Technology won a Nobel Prize in1 972.They discovered that the human brain has two sides,and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number;it analyses and reasons.The right s ide controls our imagination;it controls our understanding of music and our sense of rhythm.It is the right side of our brain which makes daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar:they both use the two sides of their brain.It iswell-known that Albert Einstein,as a great scientist,also enjoyed art,playing the violin and sailing.Ei nstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis,reason and la nguage.He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking.He got ideas by usin g his imagination.He then used the left side of brain to use analysis,number and reason and then he us ed language to explain it.Usual education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our nguage,number,ana lysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.In fact,all of us need both sides of our brain.We need to use our imaginations to think of solution s to problems and to enjoy feeling and creative experiences.And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to live in this world.It is true that some people find it easier to use one side of the brain rather than the other but all of us can use both sides and all of us benefit by using all the powers we have.Nietzsche,the well-known philosopher,said that we add to our knowledge by making conscious the unconscious.66.According to the passage,____of our brain controls our understanding of music.A.the left sideB.the right sideC.both sidesD.neither sides答案：B67.Albert Einstein's example is used to support the idea that___A.all scientific discoveries are based on imagination.B.people should do nothing but daydreaming two sides of brain is important.D.scientists are good at imagining what may happen答案：C68.It is implied in the passage that school educationA.suggests using both sides of the brainB.finds it very important to have daydreamsC.claims that analysis and reason are of no valueD.fails to develop the right side of the brain答案：D69.What did Nietzsche say about adding to the knowledge we have?A.Learning happens when we are not conscious.B.Learning happens when we make unconscious decisions.C.Learning happens when we become aware of things inside us.D.Learning happens when we think about things logically.答案：C70.The author's attitude toward using two sides of the brain is_____.A.positiveB.neutralC.illogicalD.critical答案：APassage ThreeFor many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and ma gazines:a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job or advancing in one,the ability to read and co mprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure.Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early a ge,and never get over them.The main problem lies in language itself--words.Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases,sentences and paragraphs.Unfortunately,however,the u ntrained reader does not read groups of words.He reads one word at a time,often regressing to rereadwords or passages.Regression,or looking back over what you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization--sounding each word ei ther orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits,some reading clinics use a device called accelerator(加速器),which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate t han the reader finds comfortable,in order to stretch"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, making word-by-word reading,regression and vocalization virtually impossible.At first,comprehensi on is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas,you will not only read faster,but your com prehension will improve.Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some trainin g.71.According to the passage,today many people no longer read forA.newsB.their workrmationD.entertainment答案：D72.Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly becauseА.they don't read groups of wordsB.they don't like to be trained in reading skillsC.they don't realize they have poor reading habitsD.they don't understand words when put together答案：A73.The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPTA.regressionB.reading for ideas onlyC.vocalizationD.word-by-word reading答案：B74.How does an accelerator help people to read?A.It helps people read at a comfortable speed.B.It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.C.It forces people to overcome bad reading habits.D.It lets people look back over what they have just read.答案：C75.What does“At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed”(Para.2,Sentence4)mean?A.The reader reads fast,but he understands everything he reads.B.The reader reads slowly and he understands everything he reads.C.The reader reads slowly,but he doesn't understand everything he reads.D.The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.答案：DPassage FourWhen the dog named Judy saw the first sheep in her life,she did what came naturally.The four-ye ar-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and,being a city animal,lost both her shee p and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of the cliff(ằ)and fell100feet,jumping off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden was worried and called the coastguard of Cornwall,who appeared in sec onds.Six volunteers went down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her aliv e after a90-minute search.Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home from his holi day upset,believing his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve T regear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holden if he would like his dog back.A birdwatcher,using a telescope,found the pet sitting on a rock.While he sounded the alarm,a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to pick up Judy.The dog had been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge.The dog was very thin and hungry,"Steve Tre gear said,It was a very lucky dog.She survived because of the fresh water around,"he added.It was,as Mr.Holden admitted,"a miracle(奇迹)".76.The dog Judy fell down the cliff when she was____.A.rescuing her ownerB.caught in a hurricaneC.blocked by a rockD.running after a sheep答案：D77.Who spotted Judy after the accident?A.A birdwatcherB.A student from LeedsC.Six volunteersD.The coastguard of Cornwall答案：A78.What can be inferred from the passage?A.People like to travel with their pets.B.Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.C.Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.D.Holden cared little where Judy was buried.答案：C79.According to the passage,which of the following statements is Not True?A.Mr.Holden called the coastguard after bis dog fell down the cliff.B.Judy was strong and be healthy when she was found.C.People thought Judy died after a90-minute search.D.Judy survived because she had fresh water and food答案：B80.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Miracle of the Coastguard.B.Surviving a Hurricane.C.Dangers in the WildD.A narrow escape.答案：DII.Translation(20points)How should we react to disasters?Firstly,I think it is reasonable to face them.No one expects disast ers,but if they come,they are there,and we must accept them as they are.In this way,it might be easie r for us to recover from the shock they bring to us.Secondly,we should concentrate on what we can do to relieve the bad effect of the disaster.We can't undo what is done,but we can make things a little better with our effort.Finally,in the face of disaster,we should help each ot her and try to make up for the losses caused by them.答案：我们该如何应对灾难?首先，我认为面对他们是合理的。

Translate the following paragraph into Chinese: (10 points) Rummaging through the fruit and veg section of my local supermarket, reading the country of origin labels, I am bewildered by the geography of it all. That the fruits of the earthshould all be laid out on tidy shelves in this provincial corner of Britain would have been unthinkable a few years ago, yet now it is taken for granted.Once strange and exotic fruits that only the rich could afford, if not now part of everyones diet, are certainly part of our everydayshopping experience. So much so that instead of focusing on the novel, I am drawn to the commonplace. Here, among the humble vegetables, something strange and disturbing is going on.V.

Reading Comprehension (38 points)Clearly if we are to participle in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members ofsociety.Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of has become of one of the dominating factors ofcontemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes.Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing,educating and entertaining.Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is apart, the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse,and there is no turning back.1. In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the _________ offace-to-face contact insocial settings.A natureB limitationC usefulnessD creativity2. It is implied in the passage that_______A local news used to be the only source of informationB local news still takes a significant placeC national news is becoming more popularD international news is the fastest transmitted news3. which of the following statement is INCORRECT?A To possess information used to be a privilegeB Public libraries have replaced private librariesC Communication means more than transmissionD Information influences ways of life and thinking4.From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is________.A indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass mediaB happy about the drastic changes in the mass mediaC pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaI am one of the many city people who are always saying that giventhe choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt andnoise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself thatit werent for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But howrealistic is the dream?Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the populationlive in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervouscooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks dont even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the existing and important events that take place in cities. Theres little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, andfor anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on and expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves forthe country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peaceand quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation, and constant noise batters the senses.But one of its main advantages is that you are at the center of things, and that life doesnt come to an end at half-past nine at night. Some people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two; they have expressed their preference for the quiet life by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring morning to the locals as they pass by? Im keen on the idea, but you see theres my cat, T oby, Im not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass, I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening.5. We get the impression from the first paragraph that the authorA used to live in the countryB used to work in the cityC works in the cityD lives in the country6. In the authors opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPT A a strong sense of fear B lack ofcommunicationC housing conditionsD a sense of isolation7. The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following thingsin the country EXCEPT A daily necessities B fresh fruitsC designer clothesD fresh vegetables8. According to the passage, which of the following adjectives best describes those people who work in large cities and live in villages?A OriginalB QuietC ArrogantD Insensitive9. Do you think the author will move to the country?A Yes, he will do soB No, he will not do soC It is difficult to tellD He is in two mindsIdeas about education are changing in the United States. Education today is not just a high school diploma or a college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. For them, learning does not end with a diploma.Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field. It also gives them a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones.Scientists, mechanics and barbers can take classes toimprove their work skills. If they know more or learn more, they can get a better job or earn more money.Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills. There is usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photography, auto repair, furniture repair, or swimming. These are only some of the classes available.Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings or churches. Most classes are in the evening, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive.10. The new idea about education in the U.S. is that__________.A. everyone should get a college degreeB. Its no use for adults to go to collegeC. a high school diploma is the end of educationD. adults should go on learning after graduating from school11. Whats the purpose for adults to continue their education?A. Enlarge their knowledge and learn new skills.B. Catch up the opportunity to get a higher degree.C. Learn more basic knowledge to get a diploma.D. Make themselves live a more comfortable life.12. Which of the following statement is true?A. There are only a few continuing education classes available for adults.B. Only those who want to get more money should go onwith their education.C. People take continuing education can get a good job.D. All the people getting continuing education can get a good job.13. Usually, the continuing education program is given________.A. in a small size and expensivelyB. only for working peopleC. only in community buildings or churchesD. by community colleges and public schools14. The best title for the passage would be _________.A. Continuing Education ClassesB. The Importance of a College DegreeC. A Good Way to Earn More MoneyD. Difference Choices for AdultsHuman cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successfully. Couples go through physically and emotionally painfulprocedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow for childrenand adults suffering from leukemia. This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer.Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.15Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technologyby___________.A removing the damaged part of the heartB replacing the old heart with a cloned oneC repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy onesD giving the patients injections of various medicines16. The word infertile(Line 1, Para.2) most probablymeans____________.A unable to give birth to a childB with physical and emotional problemsC short of time and moneyD separated from each other for long17. According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology may be in____________.A the treatment of heart attacksB the bearing of babiesC the cure of blood diseasesD the detection of gene-related diseases18. Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by___________.A attacking the diseased cells with healthy onesB controlling the growth of the cellsC detecting disordered genes in the cancel cellsD activating cancer cells by switching them on19. According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is that___________.A it may be out of human controlB it has brought about few benefits so farC people still know little about itD people are afraid of such technologyVII.

Each passage is followed by some questionsor unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D .You should decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Passage OnePopulation tends to grow at an exponential( 指数的 )rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate take one penny and doubleevery day for one month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cent, but after thefourth week you would have over a million dollars.This helps explain why the population has come on“ all of a sudden ” took from he beginningof human 1ife to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. Thatrepents( 缓慢进行 ) a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960 only thirtyyears and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion which is another billion people inonly fifteen years.World population is increasing at a rate of 9, 000per hour, 220,000 per day and 80 million per year.This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number ofbirths has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are doubling their population about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of percent ayear or more. The United States is doubling its population about very eighty-seven years,with a rate of percent per year. （81）Every time a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food andmedicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult to achievefor the more rapidly growing countries.This passage chiefly discussesȀ⸀Ā⸀Ā⸀Ā⸀Ā⸀he growth of world population. B.one type of the exponential rate.the population problem of more rapidly growing countries.the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth.According to the passage what helps to explain why the population problem has comeon “all of a sudden ”A. The penny that doubles itself every day for one month.B. The time span of at 1east two million years in human history.C. An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the author.D. The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week.43.It took for the world to increase its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.A. 100 yearsB. 175 yearsC. 1975 yearsD. over two million yearsWhich of the following statements is NOT trueA. World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minute.When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much ofeverything including __.A. hospitals and medicinesB. schools and studentsC. food and manpower resourcesD. all of the aboveQuestions 46 to 50based on the following passage:Passage TwoWomen are on the whole more verbal than men. They are good at 1anguage and verbalreasoning. while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial(视空)abilities.In fact, along with aggression these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining andmanipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talentsprogrammed into the brain In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology( 神经生理学 ), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain malesare specialists while women are generalists.But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial and it ’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a cartask that involve visual-spatial skills.They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in lovewith the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions oftheir identity.（82）A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.46. According to the passage, women are usually good at_____.A. body languageB. logical reasoningC. tasks demanding for the use of wordsD. both A and B47.The word "accepted ” in the last sentence of the first paragraph, roughly means_____.A. believedB. assumedC. receivedD. reconciled48. In the author’s opinion, visual and spatial abilities are good for______.A.achieving one’s objects.B. mind and body.C. programming talents into the brain.D. imagination and communication.All the following tasks involve visual-spatial abilities EXCEPT____.A. imagining and handling objects.B. providing a computer with a set of instructionsC. shooting a gun and driving an automobileD. planning and making things as an engineer doesWhy do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objectsthemselves A. Because they have no visual-spatial skills.B. Because they are only good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning.C. Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspects.D. Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles, computers, etc.Questions 51 to 55are based on the following passage:Passage ThreeThe US. government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers ofearthquakes by publishing a map. This map shows the chances of an earthquake in eachpart of the country.（83）The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely tooccur are called earthquake “ belt ” . The government is, spending a great deal moneyand is working hard to help discover the answer to these two questions: l. Can we predict earthquake 2. Can we control earthquakesTo answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault( 断层 )systems in the country such as the San Andreas fault in California, a fault is break between two sections of the earth ’s surface. These breaks between sectionsare the place where earthquake occurs. Scientists look at the faults for changes thatmight show that an earthquake was about to occurs. But it will probably be many yearsbefore we can predict earthquakes accurately. And the control of earthquakes is evenfarther away.Nevertheless, there have been some interesting developments in the field ofcontrolling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes. Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4000 meters below surfaceof the ground. Shortly after this injection of water, there were a small number ofearthquakes. Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other. When the water “ oiled ” the fault, the fault became slipperyand the energy of an earthquake was released. Scientists are still experimenting atthe site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a connection betweeninjection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that might bepossible to use this knowledge to prevent very big destructive earthquakes, that is,scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change one bigearthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes.51. Earthquake belts are .A. maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occurB. zones with a high probability of earthquakesC. breaks between two sections of the earth ’ s surfaceD. the two layers of earth along a fault52. The San Andreas ’ fault is .What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky MountainArsenal A. They occur at bout 4000 meters below ground levelB. The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes fromoccurring.C. They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.D. Harmful earthquakes can be possibly prevented by causing small harmlessearthquake.54. What can be said about the experiments at Rocky MountainArsenal A. They have no practical value in earthquake prevention.B. They may have practical value in earthquake prevention.C. They are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.D. he article does not say anything about their practical value inearthquake prevention.What is the most appropriate title for thepassage A. Dangers of EarthquakeB. Earthquake Belts and PredictionC.Earthquake Prediction and Control D.Earthquake Engineering in CaliforniaQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:Passage FourSporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior. Viewed biologically, the modern footballer is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey into a goalmouth. If his aim isaccurate and he scores a goal, he enjoys the hunter ’ s triumph of killing his prey.To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look back at our forefathers. They spent over a million years evolving( 进化 ) as Cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting field. （84） Under this pressure their whole way of life, even their bodies, became greatly changed： They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attack.Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting the food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life wasput to a new use—— that of controlling and domesticating ( 驯养 ) their prey. The hunt became suddenly out of date. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.(85)The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets.Hunting for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all theoriginal hunting sequences( 后果 ), but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoidstarvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skill against prey that was no longer essential to their survival. To be sure, the kill may have been eaten, but there were other purposes, much simpler of obtaining a meaty meal.What is the main idea of the passageHunting is very important in human civilization.Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern society.It ’s hunting that provides human beings with food.The importance of sporting activities in modern society.57. According to the author, sporting activities.A. are essential to the survivalB. have actually developed from huntingC. evolve as biological developmentD. are football games58. For over a million years. our forefathers were basically.A. skillful sportsmenB. successful farmersC. runners and jumpersD. cooperating hunters59. The word“ operation (Par. 4)refers to.A. sports activitiesB. huntingC. farmersD. prey killingWhich of the following is true according to the passageA. The goalmouth is equal to the weapon in hunting.B. Without hunting our forefathers couldn’ t live.C. After our forefathers became farmers they still hunted for food.D. Farmers are satisfied with stable lives and they didn ’ t have enthusiasm for hunting any more得分评卷人III. Cloze Test (20 分 )Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

陕西省专升本英语作文历年真题
陕西省专升本英语作文历年真题I am unable to provide a personal response or incorporate emotional elements into my writing. However, I can certainly help you with the essay by providing a sample essay that meets the requirements. Here's a sample essay on a topic related to the requirements:The topic of education is a complex and multifaceted issue that affects individuals, communities, and societies as a whole. In the context of the Shaanxi Province, the specialized entrance examination for adult students seeking to further their education, known as '专升本' in Chinese, is a significant aspect of the education system. This essay will explore the challenges and opportunities associated with the '专升本' examination, considering the perspectives of adult learners, educational institutions, and the broader society.From the perspective of adult learners, the '专升本' examination presents both opportunities and challenges. On one hand, it provides a pathway for individuals who may have missed out on higher education earlier in life to pursue further studies and enhance their career prospects. Many adult learners see the '专升本' examination as a second chance to fulfill their academic aspirations and improve their socio-economic status. However, preparing for the examination while juggling work, family responsibilities, and other commitments can be extremely demanding and stressful. The pressure to succeed in the examination can take a toll on the mental and emotional well-being of adult learners, leading to feelings of anxiety and self-doubt.Educational institutions also face unique challenges and opportunities in relation to the '专升本' examination. On one hand, they have the opportunity to cater to the specific needs of adult learners by offering flexible study options, tailored support services, and relevant course offerings. By accommodating the diverse backgrounds and experiences of adult learners, educational institutions can create a more inclusive and accessible learning environment. However, they also face the challenge of ensuring the quality and rigor of the educationprovided to '专升本' students. Balancing the academic standards of the examination with the support needs of adult learners requires careful planning and resource allocation.From the perspective of society, the '专升本' examination has broader implications for workforce development, social mobility, and economic growth. By enabling more adults to obtain higher education qualifications, the examination has the potential to enhance the overall skill level of the labor force and contribute to the development of a knowledge-based economy. This, in turn, can lead to greater innovation, productivity, and competitiveness on a regional and national level. However, the societal perception of '专升本' graduates and the recognition of their qualifications in the job market can be a challenge. Overcoming stereotypes and biases against non-traditional students is essentialfor realizing the full potential of the '专升本' examination in contributing to societal advancement.In conclusion, the '专升本' examination in Shaanxi Province embodies a complex set of challenges and opportunities for adult learners, educational institutions, and society at large. By considering the multiple perspectives involved, it becomes clear that addressing the needs of adult learners, ensuring the quality of education, and recognizing the societal value of '专升本' qualifications are crucial for the continued success of the examination. Only through a holistic and inclusive approach can the full potential of the '专升本' examination be realized for the benefit of individuals and society as a whole.。

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 write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Passage OnePopulation tends to grow at an exponential( 指数的 )rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate take one penny and double every day for one month. After thefirst week, you would have only 64 cent, but after the fourth week you would have over a million dollars.This helps explain why the population has come on“ all of a sudden” took from he beginning of human1ife to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That repents( 缓慢进行 ) a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion.The next billion was added by 1960 only thirty years and in 1975 world population reached 4 billionWorld population is increasing at a rate of 9, 000per hour, 220,000 per day and 80 million per year.This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number of births has not declinedat the same rate as the number of deaths.Some countries such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica and the Philippines are doubling theirpopulation about every twenty-one years with a growth rate of 3.3 percent a year or more. The United Statesis doubling its population about very eighty-seven years, with a rate of 0.8 percent per year. （ 81） Everytime a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals,schools, resources, food and medicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult toachieve for the more rapidly growing countries.41. This passage chiefly discussesA. the growth of world population.B. one type of the exponential rate.C. the population problem of more rapidly growing countries.D. the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth.42. According to the passage what helps to explain why the population problem has come on“ all of a sudden ” ?A. The penny that doubles itself every day for one month.B. The time span of at 1east two million years in human history.C. An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the author.D. The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week.43. It took for the world to increase its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.A. 100 yearsB. 175 yearsC. 1975 yearsD. over two million years44.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minute.B.Lower death rate also contributes to world population growth.C.The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 years.D.The United States is usually doubling its population on about every 87 years.45. When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything including__.A. hospitals and medicinesB. schools and studentsC. food and manpower resourcesD. all of the aboveQuestions 46 to 50 based on the following passage:Passage TwoWomen are on the whole more verbal than men. They are good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning.while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual-spatial( 视空 )abilities. In fact, along with aggressionthese are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.Words are tools for communicating with other people especially information about people. They aremainly social tools. Visual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and forcommunicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newestand most controversial research in neurophysiology( 神经生理学 ), it has been suggested that when it comesto the brain males are specialists while women are generalists.But one knows that, if anything this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering isboth Visual and spatial and it ’s true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women becomejust as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also doequally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem lesslikely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to beextensions of their identity. （ 82）A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.46.According to the passage, women are usually good at_____.A. body languageB. logical reasoningC. tasks demanding for the use of wordsD. both A and B47.The word "accepted ”in the last sentence of the first paragraph, roughly means_____.A. believedB. assumedC. receivedD. reconciled48.In the author ’s opinion, visual and spatial abilities are good for______.A. achieving one’ s objects.B. mind and body.C. programming talents into the brain.D. imagination and communication.49.All the following tasks involve visual-spatial abilities EXCEPT____.A.imagining and handling objects.B.providing a computer with a set of instructionsC.shooting a gun and driving an automobileD.planning and making things as an engineer does50.Why do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves?A.Because they have no visual-spatial skills.B.Because they are only good at 1anguage and verbal reasoning.C.Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspects.D.Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles, computers, etc.Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Passage ThreeThe US. government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers of earthquakes by publishing a map. This map shows the chances of an earthquake in each part of the country. （ 83）The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake “belt”. Thegovernment is, spending a great deal money and is working hard to help discover the answer to these two questions: l. Can we predict earthquake? 2. Can we control earthquakes?To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault( 断层)systems in the country such as the San Andreas fault in California, a fault is break between two sections of the earth ’ surface. These breaks between sections are the place where earthquake occurs.Scientists look at the faults for changes that might show that an earthquake was about to occurs. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes accurately. And the control ofearthquakes is even farther away.Nevertheless, there have been some interesting developments in the field of controlling earthquakes. The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes.Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4000 meters below surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection of water, there were a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other. When the water “ oiled ” the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was released. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a connection between injection of the waterand the earthquake activity. They have suggested that might be possible to use this knowledge toprevent very big destructive earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like waterinto faults and change one big earthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes.51. Earthquake belts are.A. maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occurB. zones with a high probability of earthquakesC. breaks between two sections of the earth ’s surfaceD. the two layers of earth along a fault52. The San Andreas’fault is.A. an active fault systemB. a place where earthquakes have been predictedaccurately C. a place where earthquake have been controlledD. the location of the Rocky Mountain53.What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal ？A.They occur at bout 4000 meters below ground levelB.The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurring.C.They are usually caused by the oil in the faults.D.Harmful earthquakes can be possibly prevented by causing small harmless earthquake.54.What can be said about the experiments at Rocky Mountain Arsenal?A.They have no practical value in earthquake prevention.B.They may have practical value in earthquake prevention.C.They are certain to have practical value in earthquake prevention.D.he article does not say anything about their practical value in earthquake prevention.55.What is the most appropriate title for the passage?A.Dangers of EarthquakeB.Earthquake Belts and PredictionC.Earthquake Prediction and ControlD.Earthquake Engineering in CaliforniaQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:Passage FourSporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior. Viewed biologically, the modern footballer is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey into a goalmouth. If his aim is accurate and he scores a goal, he enjoys the hunter’s triumph of killing his prey.To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look back at our forefathers. They spent over a million years evolving(进化) as Cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting field. （84） Under this pressure their whole way of life, even their bodies, became greatly changed： They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attack.Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting the food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life was put to a new use—— that of controlling and domesticating ( 驯养 ) their prey. The hunt became suddenly out of date. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.(85)The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets. Hunting for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting sequences(后果), but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skillagainst prey that was no longer essential to their survival. To be sure, the kill may have been eaten,but there were other purposes, much simpler of obtaining a meaty meal.56. What is the main idea of the passage?A.Hunting is very important in human civilization.B.Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern society.C.It ’ s hunting that provides human beings with food.D.The importance of sporting activities in modern society.57. According to the author, sporting activities.A. are essential to the survivalB. have actually developed from huntingC. evolve as biological developmentD. are football games58. For over a million years. our forefathers were basically.A. skillful sportsmenB. successful farmersC. runners and jumpersD. cooperating hunters59. The word “ operation (Par. 4)refers to.A. sports activitiesB. huntingC. farmersD. prey killing60.Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. The goalmouth is equal to the weapon in hunting.B. Without hunting our forefathers couldn’tlive.C. After our forefathers became farmers they still hunted for food.D. Farmers are satisfied with stable lives and they didn ’thave enthusiasm for hunting any more得分评卷人III. Cloze Test (20分)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.
