1、Man has always wanted to fly. Even as long as eight hundred years ago, an Englishman had tried. He made a pair of 1 from chicken feathers and fixed them to his shoulders. Then he jumped from a tall building. As you can imagine, he did not fly very far. 2 , he fell to the ground and broke several bones. The first real attempt at flying took place in France in 1783. The two Mongolian brothers knew that hot air rose. If they could fill a large balloon with hot air, they thought it would rise into the air and 3 . They were right. They made a very large hot air balloon of cloth and paper. It measured ten meters in diameter. They filled it with hot air and the balloon got two hundred meters into the air. It fell to earth about three kilometers 4 .At the next attempt, they arranged for a balloon to carry passengers. We do not know what the passengers felt about the trip as they were a cock, a duck, and a sheep. But we 5 know that the trip lasted eight minutes and the animals landed safely.(1)、A：InsteadB：wingsC：doD：awayE：fly答案：B(2)、A：InsteadB：wingsC：doD：awayE：fly答案：A(3)、A：InsteadB：wingsC：doD：awayE：fly答案：E(4)、A：InsteadB：wingsC：doD：awayE：fly(5)、A：InsteadB：wingsC：doD：awayE：fly答案：C阅读理解40、Oil is so important that it is sometimes called "black gold". Almost half of our energy comes from oil. We use it to run our cars and factories and to heat our homes, offices and schools. Many everyday things are made from oil. Your shirt may have oil in the material. The soap you wash your hands with might also be made from oil. Your favorite plastic toy is made from oil.Oil is hard to find, because it is trapped deep under the earth. Once the only way people knew there was oil someplace if it leaked out of the ground. Today, however, we have many ways of finding oil. One tool measures the pull of gravity. Places where gravity is weaker are more likely to have oil. Another tool is sound waves. Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds. We can use them to find the rocks that have oil in them.We need a lot of oil, and we are using up the oil wells we know about. Soon we must find new ways of looking for this "black gold".(1)、From this passage, we can know oil is a source of energy. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、According to the passage, we can tell that oil is found only under water. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(3)、Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(4)、Many things are made from oil. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(5)、The main idea of the whole story is that oil is important for us but hard to find. ___________B：F答案：A41、The undersea world is very beautiful. Now more and more people want to dive in the water to find the secrets there. Scuba（戴水肺）diving is a new sport today. It can take you into a wonderful undersea world.You will find many strange animals in the sea. Some are like a school bus. Many sea animals give out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea, everything is blue and green. When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can't dive too deep. And you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It is cold, and it is dark, too. The deeper it is, the less sunlight there is. At about 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is very dark in the sea. Many fishes have no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side.Besides the coldness and the darkness, deep-sea animals face a third danger - other animals.Animals eat! They must find food to eat. Many animals eat plants. However, some animals eat meat. This means these sea animals have two big jobs. They need to find animals as food, and they have to try not to become other animals' meal.(1)、People want to dive in the sea because they want to find the secrets of the undersea world. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、In the daytime, when you dive in the sea, you can see everything green and blue. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、Animals will meet four types of danger under the deep sea. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(4)、When you do scuba diving, you can dive freely without any danger. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、At the depth of 3,000 feet under the sea, all animals can find their way with the help of theireyes. ___________A：TB：F答案：B全套完整新版题库，全中文翻译，群内考前突击，提供简化版，提供作文辅助输入工具，全程免费答疑。

All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.(1)、The origin of language is _________.A：a legend handed down from the pastB：a matter that is hidden or secretC：a question difficult to answerD：a problem not yet solved答案：D(2)、What is true about words? _______A：They are used to express feelings only.B：They can not be written down.C：They are simply sounds.D：They are mysterious.答案：C(3)、The real power of words consists in their ______.A：propertiesB：characteristicsC：peculiarityD：representative function(4)、By "association" in the last paragraph, the author means ______.A：a special qualityB：a joining of ideas in the mindC：an appearance which is puzzlingD：a strange feature答案：B(5)、Which of the following statements about the real poet is NOT true? _________A：He is no more than a master of words.B：He can convey his ideas in words which sing like music.C：He can move men to tears.D：His style is always charming.答案： A三、词汇与语法1、The Japanese, ______ average, live much longer than the Europeans.A：withB：inC：toD：on答案：D2、Why not ______and do some outdoor activities?A：goes outB：go outC：to go outD：going out答案：B3、- It's a good idea.

46、People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for himself or herself and for invited friends.People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you; in the rain you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spread your books around you.Once I was traveling on a train to London. I was on a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole table. I had been reading a book about nonverbal （非语言的）communication so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out （突出）of his head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table.(1)、The home matters greatly to Englishmen. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The British can own private space like the house and the garden. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、According to Paragraph 2, if you spread your books around you in a library, it means you want to tell others the space belongs to you. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(4)、The man opposite to the writer showed that he owned the whole table by reading a book. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The writer tried to get back his space by moving the case off the table. ___________A：TB：F答案：B47、Our child's behavior is greatly influenced by the way we react to what he has done. Our reactions help to determine whether our child will repeat his behavior or whether he will do something different. This statement is a very important part of a principle of behavioral psychology.The principle states that a behavior is influenced or affected by how the environment ---- people, places and things ---- immediately responds to the behavior. Perhaps without realizing it, you have used this principle many times.On the occasion when you told your child what a good boy he was after he cleaned up his room, you used the principle. When you sent your child to his room for fighting with his brother, you used the principle. When I gave Kim a cookie after she started to cry, I used the principle. In each of these examples, a particular behavior occurred first ---- cleaning up a room, fighting, and crying.In addition, there was a reaction to each behavior ---- the child was praised, sent to his room, or given a cookie. By these actions, we have influenced the previous behaviors and have helped to determine whether those behaviors will occur again in the future.(1)、The lecture is mainly about Children's behavior and our response. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The lecture is based on the principle in behavioral psychology. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、The audience at this lecture might be social workers. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(4)、According to the lecture, the child was sent to his room as a kind of reward. ___________ A：TB：F答案：B(5)、People, places and things are elements of "environment" meant by the lecturer. ___________ A：TB：F答案：A全套完整新版题库，全中文翻译，群内考前突击，提供简化版，提供作文辅助输入工具，全程免费答疑。

Don't look at the sky. Don't look for old weather reports. Looking at the tree rings is more important. Some weather reports go back only one century，but some trees can show us an exact record of the weather even further back.It's clear that a tree would grow best in a climate with lots of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable (有利的) to an unfavorable climate can be reading the tree rings in tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago，count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings，then we are sure that lots of sunny and rainy weather happened. If the rings are close together，then the climate was bad for the tree.Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of the weather，but also for the history of man. In a place of New Mexico you can find only sand－no trees and no people. However，many centuries ago a lot of people lived there. They left suddenly. Why?A scientist studied the dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were used to make fires and buildings. So, after the people cut down the trees，they had to move.66.(判断题) (1)、It is understood that in a favorable climate tree rings grow far from each other.参考答案：T67.(判断题) (2)、Trees brought lots of sunlight and rainfall.参考答案：F68.(判断题) (3)、The scientists are interested in studying tree rings because they can tell whether the climate was favorable or not.参考答案：T69.(判断题) (4)、Studying dead tree rings shows how the people left.参考答案：F70.(判断题) (5)、The people had to leave the place of New Mexico because they had cut down all the trees.参考答案：T（二）Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles st Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary (周年纪念) of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality. The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.Butthe Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac's body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug, Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn't stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys show that most French people feel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France's close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain's close links with the US.Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of "doubtful friendship", they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here's one: What's the best thing about Britain's relationship with France? The English Channel.71.(单选题) (1)、For centuries, the relationship between Britain and France is______.A：friendly B：impolite C：brotherly D：a mixture of love and hate参考答案：D72.(单选题) (2)、The war in Iraq does ______ to the relationship between France and Britain.A：good B：harm C：neither good nor harm D：both good and harm参考答案：D73.(单选题) (3)、The British are not so friendly to ______ and the French are not so friendly to ______.A：Germany; America B：America; Germany C：Germany; Germany D：America; America参考答案：A74.(单选题) (4)、_____ are more interested in having holidays in _________.A：American people … Britain B：Br itish people … GermanyC：French people … Britain D：British people … France参考答案：D75.(单选题) (5)、What does the last sentence mean? _______A：As long as the English Channel exists, no further disagreement will form between France and Britain.B：The English Channel can prevent anything unfriendly happening in both France and Britain.C：France and Britain are near neighbors, and this will help balance the relationship between themD：The English Channel is the largest enemy between France and Britain.参考答案：C（三）If you travel by air across the center of Africa or South America, you fly over forests for thousands of kilometers. These great forests are the oceans of trees. There are thousands and thousands of different kinds of plants and animals.However, the world's forests are getting smaller all the time. We are cutting down the trees because we need wood, and we need more farmland. Some people say that there will not be any forests like these in 20 or 30 years. What will happen if they disappear?If we cut down our forests, a lot of plants and animals will disappear from the world. In a lot of places the new farmland will soon look like the old deserts. Crops will not grow there. It will not rain very often, and the weather will get very hot. Perhaps the climate of the world will change. This will be dangerous for everyone in the world. That is why we must take care of our forests.76.(判断题) (1)、The passage mainly tells us about the importance of taking care of plants.参考答案：T77.(判断题) (2)、Forests are homes for different kinds of animals.参考答案：T78.(判断题) (3)、The need for more wood and more land help to protect our forests.参考答案：F79.(判断题) (4)、We'll have more and greater forests in 20 or 30 years in some people's view.参考答案：F参考答案：T（四）In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person, who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.81.(单选题) (1)、What is the main idea of this passage? ________A：It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S.B：The role of time in social life over the world.C：If people are late, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D：Not every country treats the concept of time as the same.参考答案：B82.(单选题) (2)、What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? _______ A：A matter of work. B：A matter of life or death.C：You want to see him or her.

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.YouthHotelsFounded 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 you at the heart of the local community.Rates range from around ￡15 to ￡25 per person. Pubs are more likely to have single rooms.91.(单选题) In this passage the author mainly ________.A：tells us where to stay while visiting Britain B：advises readers to pay a visit to BritainC：introduces the wonderful public services in Britain D：gives us some information about British life参考答案：A92.(单选题) (2)、________ are mainly built for young visitors.A：Pubs & Inns B：Youth Hotels C：Hostels D：B&Bs参考答案：B93.(单选题) (3)、If you travel alone and want to know better about family life in Britain, you'd better stay in ________.

They are studying the relationship between diet and health. At this time, over one hundred experiments are being done in this laboratory.In one of these experiments, the scientists are studying the relationship between the amount of food the mice eat and their health. The mice are in three groups. All three groups are receiving the same healthy diet. But the amount of food that each group is receiving is different. The first group is eating one cup of food each day, the second group is eating two cups, and the third group of mice is eating three cups.After three years, the healthiest group is the one that is only eating one cup of food each day. The mice in this group are thinner than normal mice. But they are more active. Most of the day, they are running, playing with one another, and using the equipment in their cages. Also, they are living longer. Mice usually live for two years. Most of the mice in this group are still alive after three years.The second group of mice is normal weight. They are healthy, too. They are active, but not as active as the thinner mice. But they are only living about two years, not the three years or more of the thinner mice.The last group of mice is receiving more food than the other two groups. Most of the day, these mice are eating or sleeping. They are not very active. These mice are living longer than the scientists thought - about a year and a half. But they aren't as healthy. They're sick more often than the other two groups.96.(判断题) The scientists in the laboratory are studying the relationship between the amount of food and diet.参考答案：F97.(判断题) The first two groups are receiving the most food.参考答案：F98.(判断题) The first group is the thinnest because they do not have a healthy diet.参考答案：F99.(判断题) Normal mice usually live for two years.参考答案：T100.(判断题) The text tells us that people who eat less and exercise more will live longer.参考答案：T（八）The French Revolution broke out in 1789. At the time France was in a crisis. The government was badly run and people's lives were miserable. King Louis XIV tried to control the national parliament and raise more taxes. But his effort failed. He ordered his troops to Versailles. The people thought that Louis intended to put down the Revolution by force. On July 14, 1789, they stormed and took the Bastille, where political prisoners were kept. Ever since that day, July 14 has been the French National Day. Louis tried to flee the country in 1792, to get support from Austria and Prussia. However, he was caught and put in prison. In September 1792, the monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis was executed. A few months later his wife, Marie, also had her head cut off. The Revolution of France had frightened the other kings of Europe.

They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation's consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us - an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星), who are legendary, who somehow mange to become mythic. But what makes。

When he was young, he was strongly influenced by Thoreau and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi's idea of non-violent resistance. Having received a Ph. D (Doctor of Philosophy) from Boston University, he became a political and religious leader of the non-violent civil relights movement in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he led over 250,000 Americans on a march in Washington D.C. to fight for the Civil Rights Law to guarantee equality for all people, and delivered his best known speech "I Have a Dream" before the Lincoln Memorial.

Almost half of our energy comes from oil. We use it to run our cars and factories and to heat our homes, offices and schools. Many everyday things are made from oil. Your shirt may have oil in the material. The soap you wash your hands with might also be made from oil. Your favorite plastic toy is made from oil.Oil is hard to find, because it is trapped deep under the earth. Once the only way people knew there was oil someplace if it leaked out of the ground. Today, however, we have many ways of finding oil. One tool measures the pull of gravity. Places where gravity is weaker are more likely to have oil. Another tool is sound waves. Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds. We can use them to find the rocks that have oil in them.We need a lot of oil, and we are using up the oil wells we know about. Soon we must find new ways of looking for this "black gold".(1)、From this passage, we can know oil is a source of energy. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、According to the passage, we can tell that oil is found only under water. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(3)、Sound waves travel through different kinds of rocks at different speeds. ___________B：F答案：A(4)、Many things are made from oil. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(5)、The main idea of the whole story is that oil is important for us but hard to find. ___________ A：TB：F答案：A41、The undersea world is very beautiful.

Many sea animals give out light in the dark and some have sharp teeth.During the day, there is enough light. Here, under the sea, everything is blue and green. When fish swim nearby, you can catch them with your hands. When you have bottles of air on your back, you can stay in deep water for a long time. However, you can't dive too deep. And you must be very careful when you dive in deep water.The deep sea is not an easy place to live in. It is cold, and it is dark, too. The deeper it is, the less sunlight there is. At about 3,000 feet, there is no light at all. It is very dark in the sea. Many fishes have no eyes. Some have big eyes. A few have eyes on one side.Besides the coldness and the darkness, deep-sea animals face a third danger - other animals.Animals eat! They must find food to eat. Many animals eat plants.

Although they were built thousands of years ago, they are still standing. And remember: the people who built them had only simple tools. They did not have the kind of machinery that builders and engineers have today.""I agree that the pyramids in Egypt are wonderful," the second man said, "but I do not think they are the greatest wonder. I believe computers are more wonderful than the pyramids. They have taken people to the moon and brought them back safely. In seconds，they carry out mathematical calculations that would take a person a hundred years to do."He turned to the third man and asked, "What do you think is the greatest wonder in the world？"The third man thought for a long time，and then he said, "Well，I agree that the pyramids are wonderful, and I agree that computers are wonderful, too. However, in my opinion, the most wonderful thing in the world is this thermos."And he took a thermos out of his bag and held it up.The other two men were very surprised. "A thermos?" they exclaimed. "But that's a simple thing.""Oh, no，it's not, "the third man said. "In the winter you put in a hot drink and it stays hot. In the summer you put in a cold drink and it stays cold. How does the thermos know whether it's winter or summer？"(1)、The underlined word "thermos" in Chinese means "保温瓶"___________.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、That the three men could not agree on what the world's greatest wonder was because they all had different ideas. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、The first man thought the pyramids were the most wonderful thing in the world because they had been built with very simple tools. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(4)、The third man thought a thermos was the most wonderful thing in the world because it cost less than a computer. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The third man was not very clever because he could not think of anything to say.___________A：TB：F答案：B43、People have been talking about health for a long time because people know the importance of it. People's understanding of health also becomes deeper with the progress in scientific research. Recently the term "health" has come to have a wider meaning than it used to. It no longer means just the absence of illness. Today, health means the well-being of your body, your mind and your relationship with other people. This new concept of health is closely related toanother term－quality of life. Quality of life is the degree of overall satisfaction that a person gets from life.Why has the emphasis of health shifted from the absence of disease to a broader focus on the quality of a person's life? One reason for this has to do with the length and conditions of life that people can now expect. Medical advances have made it possible for people today to live longer, healthier lives. Imagine for a moment that you were born in the year 1900. You could have expected on average to live until about the age of 47. In contrast, if you were born in the year 1999, you could expect to live to the age of 75.(1)、Progress in scientific research leads to people's deeper understanding of health. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、According to the passage, to people of today, health means absence of illness. ___________ A：TB：F答案：B(3)、The emphasis of health has shifted nowadays because people enjoy better conditions of living and they can live longer. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(4)、We can infer from the passage nowadays the emphasis of health has a broader focus because of improvements in the quality of food. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、This passage is mainly about different understandings of the term "health".___________A：TB：F答案：A44、Man has always wanted to fly. Some of the greatest men in history had thought about the problem. One of them, for example, was the great Italian artist, Leonardo Da Vinci. In the sixteenth century he made designs for machines that would fly, but they were never built.Throughout history, other less famous men had wanted to fly. An example was a man in England 800 years ago. He made a pair of wings from chicken feathers. Then he fixed them to his body and jumped into air from a tall building. He did not fly very far. Instead, he fell to the ground and broke every bone in his body.The first real steps took place in France, in 1783. Two brothers, the Montgolfiers, made a very large "hot air balloon". They knew that hot air rises. Why not fill a balloon with it? The balloon was made of cloth and paper. In September of that year, the King and Queen of France came to see the balloon. They watched it carry the very first air passengers into the sky. The passengers were a sheep and a chicken. We do not know how they felt about the trip. But we do know that the trip lasted eight minutes and that the animals landed safely. Two months later, two men did the same thing. They rose above Paris in a balloon of the same kind. Their trip lasted twenty-five minutes and they traveled about eight kilometers.(1)、Leonardo Da Vinci made designs for flying machines. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、Eight hundred years ago an Englishman made a kind of flying machine. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(3)、In fact, the Englishman who tried to fly lost his life. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(4)、The very first air passengers in the balloon were two Frenchmen. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The two Frenchmen rose above Paris in November 1783. ___________A：TB：F答案：A45、The fourth Thursday in November is called Thanksgiving Day. In the United States, it is an annual occasion to show thanks to God for his goodness.As a historical, national and religious holiday, Thanksgiving Day began with the English in Plymouth Colony. As far back as 1621, after a long bitter winter and the gathering of the first harvest, these early settlers shared a feast with the local Indians and offered prayers of thanksgiving. The first national Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed（颁布）by President Washington on November 26, 1789. President Lincoln revived the custom in 1863.It was not until 1941 that the U.S. Congress adopted a resolution（决定）, setting the fourth Thursday of November as an annual Thanksgiving Day. Thus what began as a religious celebration of the harvest has since become a nationwide holiday.Now Thanksgiving Day is usually a family day, celebrated with a traditional turkey dinner and a happy reunion. Schools are closed on Thanksgiving Day and the day after. Many people, including students studying in another state, often travel long distances to spend the holiday at home.(1)、The passage is mainly about how Thanksgiving Day came into being. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、Thanksgiving Day was first celebrated in 1621 by English settlers of the Plymouth Colony. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、President Washington set Thursday, November 26, 1789 as the First National Thanksgiving Day. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(4)、Since 1863, the fourth Thursday of November has been set as an annual Thanksgiving Day, a nationwide holiday. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The pattern of the Thanksgiving celebration has not changed through the years. The basic traditional food on Thanksgiving Day is roast turkey. ___________A：TB：F答案：A46、People often say that the Englishman's home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for himself or herself and for invited friends.People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you; in the rain you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spread your books around you.Once I was traveling on a train to London. I was on a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole table. I had been reading a book about nonverbal （非语言的）communication so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out （突出）of his head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table.(1)、The home matters greatly to Englishmen. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The British can own private space like the house and the garden. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、According to Paragraph 2, if you spread your books around you in a library, it means you want to tell others the space belongs to you. ___________A：T答案：A(4)、The man opposite to the writer showed that he owned the whole table by reading a book.___________A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The writer tried to get back his space by moving the case off the table. ___________A：TB：F答案：B47、Our child's behavior is greatly influenced by the way we react to what he has done. Our reactions help to determine whether our child will repeat his behavior or whether he will do something different. This statement is a very important part of a principle of behavioral psychology.The principle states that a behavior is influenced or affected by how the environment ---- people, places and things ---- immediately responds to the behavior. Perhaps without realizing it, you have used this principle many times.On the occasion when you told your child what a good boy he was after he cleaned up his room, you used the principle. When you sent your child to his room for fighting with his brother, you used the principle. When I gave Kim a cookie after she started to cry, I used the principle. In each of these examples, a particular behavior occurred first ---- cleaning up a room, fighting, and crying.In addition, there was a reaction to each behavior ---- the child was praised, sent to his room, or given a cookie. By these actions, we have influenced the previous behaviors and have helped to determine whether those behaviors will occur again in the future.(1)、The lecture is mainly about Children's behavior and our response. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The lecture is based on the principle in behavioral psychology. ___________A：T答案：A(3)、The audience at this lecture might be social workers. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(4)、According to the lecture, the child was sent to his room as a kind of reward. ___________ A：TB：F答案：B(5)、People, places and things are elements of "environment" meant by the lecturer. ___________ A：TB：F答案：A48、There was once a large, fat woman who had a small, thin husband. He had a job in a big company and was given his weekly wages every Friday evening. As soon as he got home on Fridays, his wife used to make him give her all his money, and then she used to give him back enough to buy his lunch in the office every day.One day the small man came home very excited. He hurried into the living-room. His wife was listening to the radio and eating chocolates there."You'll never guess what happened to me today, dear," he said.He waited for a few seconds and then added, "I won ten thousand pounds on the lottery!""That's wonderful!" said his wife delightedly. But then she thought for a few seconds and added angrily, "But wait a moment! How could you afford to buy the lottery tickets?"(1)、The small man was allowed to keep just enough to buy his lunch in the office every day.___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The man won a lottery one day. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(3)、The woman is good-natured. ___________A：TB：F答案：B(4)、The woman was pleased yet suspicious when her husband won a lottery. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(5)、The man had to give almost all his money to his wife every week. ___________A：TB：F答案：B49、Americans, like many people elsewhere in the world, like to invite friends to their homes for an evening of food, drink and conversation. Formal dinners in fine homes and hotels in the United States are much the same as formal dinners anywhere in the world. But as most people in the United States have no servants, their dinner parties at home are decidedly informal. As many new small homes have no separate dining room or just have very small dining space, guests can also serve themselves and eat in the living room, holding their plates or trays on their knees.A more enjoyable form of entertainment is the picnic. Americans are great picnickers, and almost every family has a picnic basket. Summer invitations are often for a picnic at a park or in the open countryside. Unless hamburgers or hot dogs are cooked over a fire, picnic food is usually cold －sandwiches, salads, potato chips, pickles. Watermelon is a favorite dessert, followed very often by baseball for the young and active, and naps for the old and weary.(1)、Americans like to invite their friends over to dinner at their homes. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、Most Americans prefer informal parties because they cannot afford formal ones. ___________ A：TB：F答案：B(3)、Guests sit and eat at an informal dinner, in the dining room or in the living room.___________A：TB：F答案：A(4)、According to the passage, people seldom have hot food at a picnic. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(5)、The picnic is considered a more enjoyable form of meal because a dessert is always serveal. ___________A：TB：F答案：B50、 A guide dog is a dog especially trained to guide a blind person. Dogs chosen for such training must show good disposition, intelligence, physical fitness and sense of responsibility.At the age of about fourteen months, a guide dog begins an intensive course that lasts from three to five months. It becomes accustomed to the leather harness and stiff leather handle it will wear when guiding its blind owner. The dog learns to watch the traffic and to cross the street safely. It also learns to obey such commands as "forward", "left", "right" and "sit" and to disobey any command that might lead its owner into danger.The most important part of the training course is a four-week program in which the guide dog and its future owner learn to work together. However, many blind people are unsuited by personality to work with dogs. Only a tenth of the blind find a guide dog useful.(1)、A guide dog is a dog trained to help the blind. ___________A：TB：F答案：A(2)、A guide dog begins its training course at the age of fourteen months. ___________A：TB：F答案：A。

2014年大学英语B统考,远程网络大学英语B综合卷
These days, children often think of superheroes(超级英雄) as cute(帅气的), cool and strong supermen. A poor, short and thin boy wearing glasses may not interest the kids today. Yet in less than 4 years, Harry Potter has taken the world by the storm. J. K. Rowling, the writer of Harry Potter, was a British single mother out of work and living on money given to her by the government. One day, when she was on a long train trip，she had the idea for this book. She wrote the first book of the seven in the cafe with her baby daughter sleeping beside her. Last year, the fans welcomed the birth of the fourth by lining outside the bookstores. Today these books are still popular among people. Harry Potter is something more than fantasy (幻想). Rowling tries to tell the readers how things are not always what they seem to be. However, millions of the fans don't care about such a lesson. They would like to spend many sleepless nights waiting in line for the fifth, the sixth and the seventh to come. For them, surprising stories of the little boy are what they want.(1)、J.K. Rowling was very poor and didn't get work for herself when she wrote the first book. A：TB：F答案：A(2)、When Rowling thought of the idea of writing her book, she was on her way to find work. A：TB：F答案：B(3)、Four books of the seven have come out according to this passage.A：TB：F答案：A(4)、Rowling wants to show to her readers,how things are not always what they seem to be.A：TB：F答案：A(5)、Rowling wrote the first book with her daughter's help.A：TB：F答案：BComputers can injure you. Most other injuries happen suddenly. For example，if you fall off a bike and break your arms，it happens very quickly. But computer injuries happen slowly.You probably know how to ride a bike safely. Now learn to use a computer safely.Your eyesToo much light can injure your eyes，so never sit too close to a computer screen. Your eyes should be at least 50cm from the screen. Remember to look away from it sometimes. This gives your eyes a rest.When you use a computer, the window should be on your left or your right. If it is behind you, the light will reflect on (反射) the screen. If the window is in front of you, the sun and the screen will both shine into your eyes.Your hands and wristsHand and wrist injuries can happen because the hands and wrists are moved in the same way hundreds of times. If you use a keyboard for a long time，follow these three rules:1) Rest your wrists on some thing. 2) Keep your elbows (肘) at the same height as the keyboard. 3) Stop sometimes and exercise your hands，wrists and fingers in a different way.Your backSome people sit for many hours in front of a computer. If you sit in the wrong way，you can injure your back or your neck. So you should sit with your back straight. The top part of the screen should be in front of your eyes. Your forearms，wrists，hands and the upper part of your legs should all be parallel (平行) to the floor. If you are sitting for a long time，get up every 30 minutes and exercise your arms，legs and neck.Enjoy your computer，but use it safely.(1)、A computer screen may injure your eyes if your eyes are too close to it.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、Hand and wrist injuries are caused when you get plenty of exercise.A：TB：F答案：B(3)、Your eyes and hands will be safe if you often take rests from working.A：TB：F答案：A(4)、It is good for your back and neck if you sit in the right way.A：TB：F答案：A(5)、The best title for the text is "How to Protect Your Eyes."A：TB：F答案：BDo you want to know something about the history of weather? Don't look at the sky. Don't look for old weather reports. Looking at the tree rings is more important. Some weather reports go back only one century，but some trees can show us an exact record of the weather even further back.It's clear that a tree would grow best in a climate with lots of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable (有利的) to an unfavorable climate can be reading the tree rings in tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago，count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings，then we are sure that lots of sunny and rainy weather happened. If the rings are close together，then the climate was bad for the tree.Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of the weather，but also for the history of man. In a place of New Mexico you can find only sand－no trees and no people. However，many centuries ago a lot of people lived there. They left suddenly. Why?A scientist studied the dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were used to make fires and buildings. So, after the people cut down the trees，they had to move.(1)、It is understood that in a favorable climate tree rings grow far from each other.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、Trees brought lots of sunlight and rainfall.A：TB：F答案：B(3)、The scientists are interested in studying tree rings because they can tell whether the climate was favorable or not.A：TB：F答案：A(4)、Studying dead tree rings shows how the people left.A：TB：F答案：B(5)、The people had to leave the place of New Mexico because they had cut down all the trees. A：TB：F答案：AWhen you want to go shopping，decide how much money you can spend for new clothes. Think about the kind of clothes you really need. Then Look for those clothes on sale.There are labels inside all new clothes. The labels tell you how to take care of your clothes. The label for a shirt may tell you to wash it in warm water. A sweater label may tell you to wash by washing in cold water. The label on a coat may say "dry clean only. Washing may ruin this coat." If you do as the directions say on the label，you can keep your clothes looking their best.Many clothes today must be dry cleaned. Dry cleaning is expensive. When buying new clothes，check if they will need to be dry cleaned. You will save money if you buy clothes that canbe washed.You can save money if you buy clothes that are well made. Well-made clothes last longer. They look good even after they have been washed many times. Clothes that cost more money are not always better made. They do not always fit better. Sometimes less expensive clothes look and fit better than more expensive clothes.(1)、If you want to save money, you can buy clothes that can be washed.A：TB：F答案：A(2)、The labels inside the clothes tell you how to save money.A：TB：F答案：B全套完整题库，全中文翻译内容，复习更方便，提供简化版，全程免费答疑。

大学英语b统考题库及答案3篇
大学英语b统考题库及答案Passage 1:I have a colleague who is very passionate about animal rescue. She is always sharing heartwarming stories of dogs and cats who have been given a second chance at life because someone cared enough to help them.One story that really touched me was about astray dog who was found with a severe infection in his hind leg. The infection was so bad that the vet advised putting him down. But my colleague refused to give up on him. She took him to a specialist who was willing to try an experimental treatment. Months of care and rehabilitation later, the dog was able to walk again. A family adopted him and he now lives a happy life with them.This story reminds me that even small acts of kindness can make a big impact. It is easy to feel overwhelmed by the suffering in the world and to think that we can't make a difference. But we can show compassion to those we encounter in our daily lives, whether it be a stray animal or a person in need. Maybe we can't solve all the problems in the world, but we can certainly make a positive difference, oneact of kindness at a time.Passage 2:Social media has become an integral part of our daily lives. We use it to connect with friends and family, share our thoughts and photos, and even keep up with the news. But with all the benefits of social media comes its pitfalls.One of the biggest issues is the spread of misinformation. False information can be spread instantaneously and reach a large audience. This can be particularly harmful in situations where public safety is at risk. In addition, social media can be a breeding ground for cyberbullying, hate speech, and online harassment.Another issue is the impact of social media on mental health. Studies have shown that excessivesocial media use can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. People often feel pressure to present a perfect image of themselves online, creating unrealistic expectations and leading to insecurity and low self-esteem.While social media can certainly have negative effects, it also has the power to bring about positive change. Social media has been instrumental in social movements such as the Arab Spring and #MeToo. It can serve as a platform for marginalized voices to be heard and for important issues to be brought to theforefront.As with any tool, social media can be used for good or for harm. It is up to us to use it responsibly and with awareness of its effects.Passage 3:The importance of physical exercise cannot be overstated. Regular exercise has many benefits for both our physical and mental health. It helps us maintain a healthy weight, strengthens our muscles and bones, and reduces our risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease and diabetes.But the benefits don't stop there. Exercise has also been shown to improve our mental health. It can reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety, and improve our mood and overall sense of well-being. Exercise can also help us cope with stress, giving us an outlet to release tension and clear our minds.Despite the numerous benefits of exercise, manyof us struggle to make it a regular part of our lives. We may feel self-conscious about our bodies, be short on time, or lack the motivation to get started. But the key is to find an activity that we enjoy and that fits into our schedule. It doesn't have to be a formal workout at the gym – activities such as walking, cycling, dancing, and gardening can all be great forms of exercise.The bottom line is that exercise is an essentialcomponent of a healthy lifestyle. It is never too late to start, and even small amounts of activity can have a big impact on our health and well-being. So let's make a commitment to move more and take care of our bodies and minds.。

Don't look at the sky. Don't look for old，but some trees can show us an exact record of the weather even further back.It's clear that a tree would grow best in a climate with lots of sunlight and rainfall. It is also expected that little sunlight or rainfall would limit the growth of a tree. The change from a favorable (有利的) to an unfavorable climate can be reading the tree rings in tree trunk. To find out the weather of ten years ago，count the rings of a tree trunk from the outside to the inside. If the tenth ring is far from the other rings，then we are sure that lots of sunny and rainy weather happened. If the rings are close together，then the climate was bad for the tree.Studying tree rings is important not only for the history of the weather，but also for the history of man. In a place of New Mexico you can find only sand－no trees and no people. However，many centuries ago a lot of people lived there. They left suddenly. Why?A scientist studied the dead tree rings which had grown there. He decided that the people had to leave because they had cut down all the trees. Trees were used to make fires and buildings. So, after the people cut down the trees，they had to move.66.(判断题) (1)、It is understood that in a favorable climate tree rings grow far from each other.参考答案：T67.(判断题) (2)、Trees brought lots of sunlight and rainfall.参考答案：F68.(判断题) (3)、The scientists are interested in studying tree rings because they can tell whether the climate was favorable or not.参考答案：T69.(判断题) (4)、Studying dead tree rings shows how the people left.参考答案：F70.(判断题) (5)、The people had to leave the place of New Mexico because they had cut down all the trees.参考答案：T（二）Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles st Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary (周年纪念) of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality. The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.But their relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac's body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug, Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn't stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys show that most French people feel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France's close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain's close links with the US.Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of "doubtful friendship", they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here's one: What's the best thing about Britain's relationship with France? The English Channel.71.(单选题) (1)、For centuries, the relationship between Britain and France is______.A：friendly B：impolite C：brotherly D：a mixture of love and hate参考答案：D72.(单选题) (2)、The war in Iraq does ______ to the relationship between France and Britain.A：good B：harm C：neither good nor harm D：both good and harm参考答案：D73.(单选题) (3)、The British are not so friendly to ______ and the French are not so friendly to ______.A：Germany; America B：America; Germany C：Germany; Germany D：America; America参考答案：A74.(单选题) (4)、_____ are more interested in having holidays in _________.A：American people … Britain B：British people … GermanyC：French people … Britain D：British people … France参考答案：D75.(单选题) (5)、What does the last sentence mean? _______A：As long as the English Channel exists, no further disagreement will form between France and Britain.B：The English Channel can prevent anything unfriendly happening in both France and Britain.C：France and Britain are near neighbors, and this will help balance the relationship between themD：The English Channel is the largest enemy between France and Britain.参考答案：C（三）If you travel by air across the center of Africa or South America, you fly over forests for thousands of kilometers. These great forests are the oceans of trees. There are thousands and thousands of different kinds of plants and animals.However, the world's forests are getting smaller all the time. We are cutting down the trees because we need wood, and we need more farmland. Some people say that there will not be any forests like these in 20 or 30 years. What will happen if they disappear?If we cut down our forests, a lot of plants and animals will disappear from the world. In a lot of places the new farmland will soon look like the old deserts. Crops will not grow there. It will not rain very often, and the weather will get very hot. Perhaps the climate of the world will change. This will be dangerous for everyone in the world. That is why we must take care of our forests.76.(判断题) (1)、The passage mainly tells us about the importance of taking care of plants.参考答案：T77.(判断题) (2)、Forests are homes for different kinds of animals.参考答案：T78.(判断题) (3)、The need for more wood and more land help to protect our forests.参考答案：F79.(判断题) (4)、We'll have more and greater forests in 20 or 30 years in some people's view.参考答案：F80.(判断题) (5)、The writer thinks it necessary to protect the forests.参考答案：T（四）In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person, who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.81.(单选题) (1)、What is the main idea of this passage? ________A：It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S.B：The role of time in social life over the world.C：If people are late, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D：参考答案：B82.(单选题) (2)、What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? _______ A：A matter of work.

They are studying the relationship between diet and health. At this time, over one hundred experiments are being done in this laboratory.In one of these experiments, the scientists are studying the relationship between the amount of food the mice eat and their health. The mice are in three groups. All three groups are receiving the same healthy diet. But the amount of food that each group is receiving is different. The first group is eating one cup of food each day, the second group is eating two cups, and the third group of mice is eating three cups.After three years, the healthiest group is the one that is only eating one cup of food each day. The mice in this group are thinner than normal mice. But they are more active. Most of the day, they are running, playing with one another, and using the equipment in their cages. Also, they are living longer. Mice usually live for two years. Most of the mice in this group are still alive after three years.The second group of mice is normal weight.not the three years or more of the thinner mice.The last group of mice is receiving more food than the other two groups. Most of the day, these mice are eating or sleeping. They are not very active. These mice are living longer than the scientists thought - about a year and a half. But they aren't as healthy. They're sick more often than the other two groups.96.(判断题) The scientists in the laboratory are studying the relationship between the amount of food and diet.参考答案：F97.(判断题) The first two groups are receiving the most food.参考答案：F98.(判断题) The first group is the thinnest because they do not have a healthy diet.参考答案：F99.(判断题) Normal mice usually live for two years.参考答案：T100.(判断题) The text tells us that people who eat less and exercise more will live longer.参考答案：T（八）The French Revolution broke out in 1789.

On July 14, 1789, they stormed and took the Bastille, where political prisoners were kept. Ever since that day, July 14 has been the French National Day. Louis tried to flee the country in 1792, to get support from Austria and Prussia. However, he was caught and put in prison. In September 1792, the monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis was executed. A few months later his wife, Marie, also had her head cut off. The Revolution ofFrance had frightened the other kings of Europe.
