Each passage is followed by four questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating.It can also bring long-lasting rewards,especially for people working with Western businesses.The main activity of debate is presenting one's opinion and supporting it with evidence,such as statistics or facts.It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the"Discover Debate"method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business.Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion,reasons and support."What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact(交流)with someone else's opinion,rather than brush their opinion aside."Debate skills are also important in selling a product,he says.In that situation,the judges are the customers."So on Monday,for example,one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they"ll make as strong a ease asthey can.On Tuesday,the next day,another company will come in and present their ease to the /doc/b813960983.html,ually the party that can present the strongest case wins”Debate also strengthens critical thinking.In other words,it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone's reasons and evidence.lift-.Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying.Then,they look for the weak points in someone else's opinion or argument.He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else' s point of view.Mr.Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind."There's an expression in English:don't criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes.I think the wonderful thing about debate is,it puts us in another person's shoes."36.According to Paragraph1,what is the purpose of debate?A.To bring long-lasting material rewards.B.To present evidence such as statistics and facts.C.To respond to questions in a systematic way.D.To persuade people to accept your opinions.37.Why is debate important.A.It helps people understand others better.B.It allows people to present their opinions.C.It develops one's thinking and communicative competence.D.It gives one the opportunity to brush others'opinion aside.38.What does the underlined word“case”in Paragraph3refer to?A.Container.B.Evidence.C.Problem.D.Product.39.What can debaters benefit fro m“walking in another person' s shoes”.A.Becoming more broad-minded.B.Developing critical thinking.C.Finding others'weak points.D.Trying out others'methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero,and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all.You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone,risking--and at times losing--their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups,or from the traditional Herding Group.These types include the Bloodhound,Labrador Retriever,Newfoundland,German Shepherd,Golden Retriever,and Belgian Malinois--all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength,loyalty,and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell--to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas.As highly trained animals,they serve in many different fields,including specialist search,snow slide rescue,dead body location,and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker,a dog must display certain qualities.In addition to intelligence and strength,the dog must be swift,confident,easily trainable,adaptable,and have a high level of stamina(耐力)and endurance.A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during"down"time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many,many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty.Training is not for the faint-hearted.Certification training can take from two to three years,working three to four hours a day,three to sixdays a week,often in group,team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training.Rescue training,for instance,includes"air scenting"--where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim's scent(气味)and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40.Rescue dogs are chosen probably because__A.they are loyalB.they are braveC.they have amazing appearancesD.they have good eyesight41.What does"faint-hearted"in Paragraph5mean??A.Courageous.B.Cowardly.C.Energetic.D.Slow.42.Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A.Sharp hearing.B.Swift movement.C.Extraordinary smelling.D.A strong memory.43.What is the passage mainly about?A.Selection process of rescue dogs.B.Qualities and training of rescue dogs.C.Risks rescue dogs are faced with.D.Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn't keep the doctor away,but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year.That's according to a new study that investigates whether there's any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis,of the University of Michigan School of Nursing,asked8,399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health.A total of753were apple eaters,consuming at least149g of raw apple per day.The remaining7,646were classed as non-apple eaters.When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year,the apple eaters were found to be27%less likely to visit the druggist for drugs. Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption,though."Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away.However,the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications,"the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters.While apples do not compete with oranges,they do contain some immune(免疫的)system-increasing vitamin C,which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less.With over8mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit,an apple canprovide roughly14%your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type2diabetes(二型糖尿病),improved lung function and a lower risk of colon(结肠)cancer.44.How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A.149.B.7,646.C.753.D.8,399.45.What is the conclusion of the study?A.Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults'trips to the doctor.B.An apple a day does keep the doctor away.C.Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D.A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.46.What can we learn from the passage?A.Apples are better than oranges.B.Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.C.Apples can help cure certain diseases.D.Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47.What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A.Objective.B.Creative.C.subjective D.persuasivePassage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government's efforts to improve schools:new standards andtests to be applied,strict teacher evaluations,and threats of school closures and job losses.They frighten the school employees,not to mention the students.Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas--which is what fear does to us--research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach.In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools,Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing:psychological safety or safety to speak one's mind,to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn't working,to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn't come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider,the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity(正直).The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught,each teacher had different expectations about how much effort teachers should put into their work--a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening.And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken,it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person's behavior.As we all Imam,assumptions are often wrong. For example,parents and teachers my think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement ratherthan hat"s best for the students.don't feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations,trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.48.According to Paragraph1,why does the author scratch his head?A.Because he doesn't know what to do once schools are closed.B.Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.C.Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D.Because he is not in favor of the government's reform efforts.49.According to Bryk and Schneider,what was most important for successful school improvement?A.New standards and tests in schools.B.Positive social relationships.C.Strict teacher and student evaluations.D.Assistance of the government.50.What is meant by trust in school?A.Freedom to express one's views,B.Extra effort teachers put into their work.C.Independence of the teachers in schools.D.Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51.What does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person's behavior?A.They should be trusted.B.They are often bold.C.They are often incorrect.D.They should be encouraged.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe,Latin America,Asia and the US that live to be100have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role,but these folks also have strong social ties,tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones,as described in author Dan Buettner’s latest book,The Blue Zones Solution,we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions.In fact,Buettner's Blue Zones Beverage Rule--a kind of guideline summarized from his15or so years of studying these places--is:"Drink coffee for breakfast,tea in the afternoon,wine at5p.m"Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea.Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea,as well as foods like cocoa.Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break1007Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke,heart disease and several cancers.One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism(新陈代谢).If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria,the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean,you won't be offered any tea made with tea leaves.Instead,Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day--either rosemary,wild sage,oregano,maijoram,mint or dandelion,all plants that may have anti-inflammatory(消炎的)properties,which may help lower bloodpressure.This could explain Ikaria's very low dementia (痴呆)rate,since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52.What does the underlined word"centenarians"in Paragraph 1refer to?A.People who have secret lifestyles.B.People who enjoy physical exercise.C.People who are one hundred years old or older.D.People who carry the gene for being slim.53.According to Paragraph3,what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A.In the morning.B.Any time of a day.C.In the early evening.D.In the afternoon.54.What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A.To improve metabolism.B.To lower blood pressure.C.To lower life stress.D.To improve social relationships.55.What might be the best title of the passage?A.Tea-Drinking TipsB.Lifestyle Secrets of IkariansC.Tea-Drinking Ceremony in OkinawaD.Blue Zones SolutionsⅤ.Daily Conversation(15points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.Can I speak to Mr.Johnson,pleaseB.I’ll tell him you’ve calledC.I’ll give him the messageD.What can I do for youE.Can you tell him that we can meet tomorrow afternoon in my officeF.Can I take a messageG.Can you ask him to call me back as soon as possibleH.That’s rightWoman:Hello,Mr.Johnson's office.Man:Good morning.56?Woman:Sorry,he's in a meeting at the moment.57?Man:Yes.This is Steve Lee from Bright light Systems.58?Woman:Tomorrow afternoon in your office.Man:59Woman:Okay.60Man:Thank you.第Ⅱ卷(非选择题,共25分)Ⅵ.Writing(25points)Directions:For this part,you are supposed to write an essay in English in100-120words based on the following information. Remember to write it clearly.61.你(Li Yuan)组织同学进行了一次烧烤野餐(barbecue)。
2017年江苏省专转本英语模拟试题第七套(含答案)
2017年江苏省专转本英语模拟试题7Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed bysome questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, D. You should decide the best choice and mark the correspondingletter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Modern mass-production methods lower the cost of making goods, and thus give us better values. At the same time, American ingenuity and science are constantly at work improving the quality of products. In this way, better quality products at good values are continually being brought to the people of all income groups.As an example of how this works, when facial tissues were first put on the market in 1924, they were made in limited quantities and sold at 65 cents per box of 200. People liked these facial tissues immediately and began asking for them when they went into different stores. Because there was such a demand for the product, manufacturers began making tissues in larger and larger quantities. Because the manufacturers were making tissues in greater quantities, their production costs were lowered, so that the cost of tissues went down. In the meanwhile, the quality of facial tissues was constantly improved because more manufacturers went into the business of making tissues and each manufacturer strove to make his product better than his competitors. Today, instead of costing 65 cents, a box of 200 facial tissues costs around one-third of that price, and they are both softer and stronger.When people are free to compete—when they are free to make more things and make them better—everyone benefits.1.According to the passage, we know the word “tissue”(Para. 2, Line 1) means “” .A. cellB. soft paperC. organizationD. thin fiber2. When the demand for facial tissues increased, the supply________.A. was not stoppedB. became more competitiveC. remained unchangedD. was increased to keep up with the demand3. The price of facial tissues goes down when_________.A. fewer customers buy themB. more and more of them are producedC. their quality become poorerD. more manufacturers produce them4. The improved quality of facial tissues resulted from_________.A. mass-production methodsB. popular demand for a better productC. a decrease in priceD. competition among manufacturers5. In regard to the production of goods in greater quantities, the author statesthat_______.A. the price of the goods would dropB. the price of the goods would riseC. the quality and the price would riseD. the quality would rise and the price would dropPassage 2It is true that times are changing for the old people in Britain. But not all the changes are bad ones. Modern medicine, for example, has made old people healthier than ever before. Another advantage is that there are many more old people than there used to be. This means that old people often have a good social life with their own clubs and organizations. Old people, too, have more money now than their own parents and grandparents had.The biggest disadvantage of modern life is loneliness. The young leave home when they grow up and many old people live alone. Fewer old people have brothers and sisters. An old person’s one or two children may have moved to another part of the country. Even when they live nearby, the young people have their own work to do and their own children to look after. They have not much time for the old. Problems of loneliness often startwhen people stop work. When people retire they often find it difficult to start a new life without their jobs.The world has changed so fast since 1900 that it is difficult for old people to understand the problems of the young. And the world is changing even faster these days than it was fifty years ago. It makes you thin, doesn’t it? What will it be like when today’s young people are old?6. To the old people, the changes in society are _________.A. better than they expectedB. not as good as they wishC. both good and badD. difficult to understand7. According to this passage, the old people today_____.A. often go to clubs with their brothers and sistersB. prefer lonely life to social lifeC. live more happily than their parents and grandparentsD. like to share their feeling and thoughts with other people8. Although some old people live near their sons or daughters, _________.A. they still feel lonelyB. they want to move to other placesC. they have no time to look after the young people’s childrenD. they like to live with their own brothers and sisters9. In the last century, old people did not have so many problems because_______.A. they had big familiesB. they lived with their childrenC. the young were kind to the oldD. the society didn’t change so rapidly10. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Modern society only belongs to the young.B. Modern life has brought new problems to the old.C. Today’s young people are happier than their parents.D. It is necessary to take better care of the old people.Passage 3One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screens and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights at night.Advising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer.At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another some alteration seems called for—how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.11. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modern advertising?A. Indifferent.B. Shocked.C. DisappearingD. Approving12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designsa product?A. Stress factors.B. Man-hours.C. Machine toleranceD. Customer-appeal13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a product customer-appeal are_____.A. customersB. designersC. advertisersD. manufacturers14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, a manufacturer will choose to _________.A. lower the production costB. hire a better designerC. improve its qualityD. alter its images15. The best title for the passage might be_______.A. Advertising since the WarB. Advertising and ManufacturersC. Advertising—England’s Biggest IndustryD. Advertising and PurchasersPassage 4Some people say that the best way to reduce the body’s mid-section is to do stomach exercise. Many people believe that when specific muscles are exercised, the fatty tissues in the immediate area are “burned up”. The truth is that exercise burns fat from all over the body and not from one specific area, no matter what kind of exercise. Of course, if you reduce the fat throughout your body, you will certainly see results around your waist too.It is said that you need to exercise only twice a week in order to keep a sufficient level of physical fitness. Studies conducted by American scientists show that unexercised muscles lose their strength very quickly. After 48 to 72 hours, you must use the muscles again to reestablish the good physical effects. And what does that mean to you? American scientists concluded that while daily exercise is most helpful, every other day, three days a week will keep a sufficient level of physical fitness.Is it true that you burn more calories running one mile than walking the same distance? The answer is no. The truth is that you use the same amount of energy whether you walk or run a mile, since in both cases you are moving the same weight the same distance. The speed does not matter. Of course, if you run rather than walk for 30 minutes, you will cover more distance, and therefore burn more calories.If your breathing doesn’t return to normal within minutes after you finish exercising, you have exercised too much. Five minutes or so after exercising your breathing should be normal, your heart shouldn’t be beating, and you shouldn’t be exhausted.16. If you want to reduce your fat in a specific part, you________.A. should exercise all the muscles of your bodyB. should exercise that specific part of your bodyC. should do stomach exercisesD. can do any kind of exercise17. According to the text, a proper way to keep a sufficient level of physical fitness is that you need to________.A. exercise any half of the weekB. exercise any two days of the weekC. exercise every other day, three days a weekD. exercise three days a week at most18. The third paragraph mainly tells us that__________.A. you will lose more weight running one mile than walking the same distanceB. you will use more energy walking one mile than running the same distanceC. for the same distance the faster you walk, the more energy you will useD. whether you run one mile or walk the same distance, you use the same energy19. You can not judge whether you have exercised too much or not by_________.A. your breathingB. your heart beatingC. your exercising timeD. whether you are exhausted20. What can you learn from this text about the best method to keep fit?A. Do more running than walking every day of the week.B. Exercise regularly, every other day of the week.C. The more exercises you do, the healthier you will be.D. In order to lose weight, you’d better walk faster.PartⅡ Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Animals react to the changing seasons with changes in mood and behavior and human beings are no exception. Most people find they eat and sleep slightly more in winter and dislike the dark mornings and short days. For some, however, symptoms (症状) are severe enough to damage their lives and to cause considerable stress. These people are suffering from SAD. The symptoms tend to start from around September each year lasting until April, but are at their worst in the darkest months.The standard figure says that around 2% of people in Northern Europe suffer badly, with many more (10%) putting up with milder symptoms. Across the world the incidence (发生率) increases with distance from the equator (赤道), except where there is snow on the ground, when it becomes less common. More women than men are found having SAD. Children and young people can also suffer from it.The problem stems from the lack of bright light in winter. Researchers have proved that bright light makes a difference to the brain chemistry, although the exact means by which sufferers are affected is not yet known.As the cause is lack of bright light, the treatment is to be in bright light every day by using a lightbox or a similar bright treatment. (Going to a brightly-lit climate, whether skiing or somewhere hot, is indeed a cure). The preferred level of light is about as bright as a spring morning on a clear day and for most people sitting in front of a lightbox, allowing the light to reach the eyes, for between 15 and 45 minutes daily will be sufficient to alleviate the symptoms. The user does not have to stare at the light, but can watch TV or read a book, just allowing the light to reach the eyes. OUTSIDE IN have a complete range of suitable lights, all in line with the research findings from medical and academic facilities. They are all available on our pioneering HOME TRIAL SYSTEM.1. What happens to SAD patients, according to the passage?A、They eat more and sleep less.B、They are cheerless and worried.C、They react to the changing seasons.D、They dislike long days with dark mornings.2. In which month do SAD symptoms become worst?A、December.B、September.C、April.D、February.3. Which of the following statements is false according to the passage?A、Going skiing is one of the good cures for SAD.B、The percentage of SAD sufferers is high in North Europe.C、Doctors now know how lack of bright light causes SAD.D、People of all ages and both sexes may suffer from SAD.4. What does the word “alleviate” (Paragraph 4) most probably mean?A、“cause”B、“produce”C、“show”D、“reduce”5. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?A、Why people suffer from SAD.B、How SAD patients can be treated.C、How long an SAD treatment lasts.D、Where people can go for SAD treatment.Passage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: Increasingly, over the past ten years, people – especially young people – have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for the health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods.Natural foods, for example, are vegetable, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic (有机的) matter, in simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished (滋养) by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins (维生素) and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the quantity – but not the quality – of foods grown in commercial farming areas.Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy farms. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry: there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.There are other aspects of healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on diet. Take, for example, the question of sugar. This is actually a non-essential food. Although a natural alternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten food if this is necessary, we can in fact do without it. It is not that sugar is harmful in itself. But the problem is that the quantity we use has grown steadilyover the last two centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds a year! Yet all it does is provide us with energy, in the form of calories. There are no vitamins in it, no minerals, and no fiber.6. Why do people now prefer natural foods?A、Because they grow fast and cost less.B、Because they fit people’s eating habits.C、Because they are good to people’s health.D、Because they are simply processed foods.7. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 2?A、Fertilizers are important in growing natural foods.B、Soil for natural foods usually lacks organic matter.C、Natural foods are grown in commercial farming areas.D、Chemicals are used to increase the quantity of foods grown.8. What is the writer’s attitude towards chickens fed on battery farms?A、Supportive.B、Doubtful.C、Hopeful.D、Negative.9. What is the most important point the writer wants to make about sugar?A、People use it to sweeten food.B、It gives us much-needed energy.C、People take too much of it.D、It is actually a kind of honey.10. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “diet” (Paragraph 4)?A、“food”B、“rice”C、“animals”D、“agriculture”Passage ThreeQuestions11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Friends play an important part in our lives, and although wemay take the friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few – for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their shared interest vary enormously. As we get to know people we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of prime importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and interests in common – they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they rely on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to break a promise. Equally, friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to tolerate differences of opinion.In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.11. What does the passage say about making friends?A、People usually have fewer friends than they think.B、People do not have to like each other to become friends.C、People become friends when they get on well with each other.D、People consider age and background unimportant in makingfriends.12. Which of the following statements is true according to Paragraph 2?A、Tolerance is vital to friendship.B、Friends are usually interdependent.C、Friends do not rely financially on each other.D、Annoying habits are worse than promise breaking.13. What does the passage imply about marriage?A、There is no friendship involved in it.B、There is usually a special occasion for it.C、 It requires shared experiences and emotions.D、It is a much closer relationship than friendship.14. Which of the following contributes to friendship the most?A、Similarities in class and race.B、Similarities in age and background.C、 Similarities in habits and beliefs.D、Similarities in opinion and feelings.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A、Friends and FriendshipB、Marriage and FriendshipC、Benefits from FriendsD、The Art of Making FriendsPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisionsmakes for equality and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather by the “battle of the sexes”.If the process goes too far and man’s role is regarded as less important—and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in reverse.It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of “Monism”—but we don’t want to exchange it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are sings that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit—nor the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place on it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.The family is a co-operative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism (命令主义) has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is pertinent (相关的,切题的) not only to a healthy democracy, but also to16. The ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is .A. fundamental to a sound democracyB. not pertinent to healthy family lifeC. responsible for MonismD. what we have almost given up17. The danger in the sharing of household tasks by the motherand the father is that .A. the role of the father may become an inferior oneB. the role of the mother may become an inferior oneC. the children will grow up believe that life is a battle ofsexesD. sharing leads to constant arguing18. The author states that bringing up children .A. is mainly the mother’s jobB. belongs among the duties of the fatherC. is the job of schools and churchesD. involves a partnership of equals19. According to the author, the father’s role in the home is.A. minor because he is an ineffectual parentB. irrelevant to the healthy development of the childC. pertinent to the healthy development of the childD. identical to the role of the child’s mother20. With which of the following statements would the author bemost likely to agree?A. A healthy, co-operative family is a basic ingredient of aB. Men are basically opposed to sharing household chores.C. Division of household responsibilities is workable only in theory.D. A woman’s place is always in the home.Part II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences. Each sentence is followed by four choices.

One of the questions that isalways asked of me is 61 I became an animal collector in the first 62 .The answer is that I have always been interested in animals and zoos.

2017年江苏省专转本英语作文范文背诵模板
作文范文选1. Is a Test of Spoken English Necessary?(A3)A test of spoken English will be included as an optional component of the College English Test (CET). Some people argue that it is absolutely necessary to hold a test of spoken English in China because we have been informed frequently that a Chinese student who has been learning English for over ten years cannot even communicate with a native speaker. Sometimes even those top students who excel in grammar and writing skills find their English inadequate to express their thoughts freely. A test of English will bring the college students an awareness of the importance of oral English, and will thus help them with their communicating skills.On the other hand, some others still maintain that a good command of reading and writing skills will be enough for the English learners. To some extent their opinion derives from the fact that students are already under considerable pressure from their coursework. Another required test will only add to their burden. Moreover, some students may take the shortcut by focusing on several guessed questions according to the fixed format of the test, hoping for a coincidence to bring them good luck.In my opinion, a test of spoken English will do more good than harm. Since China will continue its policy of opening and reform, the ability to speak English fluently is a must for anyone who wants to surpass others in a highly competitive society. Whether I take the test or not, I shall spare no efforts to practice oral English in the remaining years of my college study.2. Interests(A2)It is no doubt that everyone has his interests. For example, your sister is interested in stamp collecting; your brother takes interest in physics; and you yourself have a liking for computer.To develop your interests will help you make way in the world. If you like to be a teacher and you receive adequate education, you will certainly make yourself a successful one. If you cultivate your various interests properly, you will probably find it easier to find a job or profession.Sometimes you have to give up your interests for one thing or another. If you have a family and still you have a great interest in watching TV or some other pastime, you have to give it up from time to time so that you can help with housework or spend time with your lovely kid.3. Honesty(A1)What is honesty? Honesty means telling the truth and being fair and upright in act. Honesty is a good virtue. He who lies and cheats is dishonest. Those who gain fortunes, not by hard labour, but by other means, are dishonest.Honesty is the best policy. If you are honest in all matters, you'll be trusted and respected by others. A liar is always looked down upon and regarded as a black sheep by the people around. Once you have lied, people will never believe you even if you are telling the truth. The fable of the shepherd boy just makes a typicalexample. Honest, your reputation will become great. Dishonest, your name will be spoiled and your personality degraded.Since honesty is so important, we must cultivate it. We should tell the truth at all times instead of making such an excuse as "A little dishonesty is only a trifle thing". We should eradicate immediately the seed of dishonesty once it is sowed in our minds.4. The Generation Gap(A1)The generation gap is the different ideas and attitudes toward the same matter between different generations.What causes the differences then? It is the rapid changes in a society that make many things different. Different generations receive distinct education, and therefore have different knowledge and experiences. Parents want their children to follow their old-fashioned and traditional rules and values. But the youngsters like to accept the modern ones and reject to maintain the old ones. Each generation has different things to do and they tend to have different attitudes towards many matters. Therefore, generation conflicts always arise.In order to narrow the gap, each generation is supposed to be aware of the needs of the other. Has the idea ever occurred to you that each generation should respect the other, listen to the other and discuss problems with the other patiently?5. Travelling(A3)People who like travelling have their reasons. They maintain that travelling can help them expand their scope of knowledge, especially geographical and historical learning. They go on to point out that touring provides more chance for them to enjoy food and try on clothes, which otherwise would be impossible.Those who dislike travelling have their reasons, too. They would argue that travelling means a considerable amount of money and energy. For example, traffic and accommodation calls for money and walking while seeing sights often tires you. In practice, travelling does more good than harm. If your finance and health permit, you might as well do some travelling from time to time. It will at least enable you to get familiar with people and things that you may well grow to like and love.6. A Good Friend(A2)Everyone wants a friend who encourages the best in him. Such a friend shows he is interested in strengthening another. He can be counted on to give his support, and he will criticize, too, because he knows a person has to have feedback to grow and change.A good friend thinks carefully before he criticizes. He always asks himself whether his criticism is fair. He tries to find out all the facts involved in a situation because he knows how harmful inaccuracy can be.Kindness is also important to him. He wants to understand what the other personis feeling and respect those feelings. If a friend is both accurate and kind as a critic, everyone respects what he says. His criticism is something like love.7. Automobiles(A2)Automobiles, as the product of modern civilization, have been playing a vital part in the daily activities of human society. Industry needs automobiles for transportation. Agriculture needs automobiles for farming as well as transportation. Every day, automobiles drive people to or from work. At weekends, automobiles take families to joyful outings. And during travelling seasons, automobiles are all the more a common sight everywhere, even in remote areas. It can be said that the wheels of automobiles move human society forward.But automobiles have also given rise to a series of problems. For example, cities are overcrowded with automobiles. They make big noises and cause traffic accidents which disable or kill many people each year. Worst of all, perhaps, the air is polluted by the gases produced by automobiles. Some of the gases are poisonous and dangerous to health.Obviously, automobiles, like anything else, have more than one side. While they are so indispensable to mankind, they also bring us serious problems. It's only hoped that mankind, while making the most out of automobiles, will eventually find satisfactory solutions to problems.8. The World Is Getting Smaller And Smaller(A1)Most of us may have such experiences: When you go to some place far away from the city where you live and think you know nobody there, you are surprised to find that you run into one of your old classmates on the street. Perhaps both of you would cry out, "What a small world!"Why is the world getting smaller and smaller? For one thing, faster and safer means of transport have greatly reduced distance. In the past it took people eight weeks to cross the Pacific Ocean, but now an air journey from Shanghai to New York only takes eight hours. For another, the quickening pace of modern society creates more opportunities for people to visit each other. For example, business activities and cultural exchange have brought peoples into constant contact with the world. So we may safely draw the conclusion that the more advanced a society and technology, the smaller the world will be.9. Make Our Cities Greener(A1)In recent years, while our industries and business have developed quickly, the number of tress in many big cities has dramatically reduced. Efforts are being made to prevent more trees from being fallen down, but it is of importance to realize the significance of making cities greener.Making cities greener has many advantages. First, it can make our air cleaner. Scientific research has proved that trees can reduce great amount of carbon in the atmosphere through absorption. Second, it can render our cities more beautiful. With trees and flowers everywhere, there is a pleasant feeling that we live in a beautifulgarden. Finally, it can produce timber — an effective way to solve the problem of the limited supply of natural resources.Making our cities greener requires a nationwide effort. There should not only be a widespread awareness of its contribution to urban environment, but also a common action to plant more trees and preserve them from commercial use.10. Health(A1)Health is the foundation of one's future success. If you become sick, it is impossible for you to go on with your study or your work.. On the contrary, if you are strong, you can overcome the difficulties that lie ahead of you.How can you have good health? Firstly, you should do exercise every day to strengthen your bodies. Secondly, you should form some good habits, such as early rising. If you get up early, you can breathe fresh air. Thirdly, you should pay great attention to your health. If you are getting sick, you'd better go and see a doctor. In a word, nothing is more valuable than health. In good health, a student may absorb more knowledge and solve more complex problems. In good health, scientists can achieve more success and make more contributions.11. Advantages and Disadvantages of Telephone(A2)Telephone is one of the most welcome and popular communication means. It is a great carrier of massages. Many people use it almost every day. I can hardly imagine how we would get on if we didn't have telephones.There are some advantages of telephones. The first is speed and the second is directness. If you want to get an immediate connection, it is obviously quicker to phone someone than to write a letter. If you want information, it is probable to get it directly by telephone. Another advantage is that telephone can give you a personal feeling. If you want to talk or get in contact with a friend or a relative, you feel much closer to them when you are talking to them on the telephone.However, telephones have some disadvantages. If you have a telephone at home, it often rings at an inconvenient time. It may ring when you are having a bath or when you are watching your favourite television program. Another disadvantage is that sometimes you might misunderstand what somebody is saying. If it is a matter of really important information, it is probably safer to have it in a letter than on telephone.12. Ways of Relaxing(A1)"All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy" is a popular saying in English. There is much truth in it. It means that in order to keep ourselves in good health, we must take sufficient recreations.Everyone has his own way of relaxing. For people who sit much of the time at work, cycling is said to be a capital means of exercise. A good brisk walk is one of the finest forms of exercise, too. For people engaged in outdoor work, reading is an excellent change if suitable books are chosen.I like sports and enjoy participating in them. My favourite sport is table-tennisbecause it brings the whole body into action. In fact, it doesn't matter whether I play a game of ping-pang or concentrate on the bridge table. It is important for me to relax from time to time.13. The Way to Success(A1)Everyone tries to achieve success in his career. However, someone finally attains his goal while another fails. Why? The one continues his cause to the end through long periods of hard struggling, but the other is easily disappointed or stops halfway.Strong will, perseverance and diligence are the three essentials of success.A man of strong will and perseverance always has an inflexible spirit. He sticks to his cause no matter how tough it might be. Dr. Sun Yat-sen was such a man. Many of his attempts failed, but he held to his purpose with firmness and finally succeeded in overthrowing the Qing Dynasty. Diligence means steadiness in one's work and study. Su Qin stabbed himself in order to keep attentive to studies. Marx often worked 15 hours a day. Life is short and we have many things to do. Without diligence no one can achieve anything.I believe that where there is a will there is a way, and that success belongs to those who can suffer long years of patient toil and constant efforts.14. Money(A2)As we all know, money is as important as air and water in the commercial world. Whatever we buy, wherever we go, we need money. Without it, there is nothing we can do, so to speak.However, we cannot take it for granted that money is everything. It has its negative effects, too. For example, some people may misuse money by gambling, drinking excessively or addicting themselves to drugs. Some others may even commit crimes in order to get much money.In my opinion, money itself is neither good nor bad. What counts lies in how to make good use of it. We need money in our daily life, but we should not be the slaves of money.17. My View on Fate(A1)There is no consensus of opinions among people as to the view of fate. Some people believe that everyone is born to a certain fate that he can not change, while some other people think that every man is the master of his own life.As far as I am concerned, I agree with the latter opinion. There is a saying, "Everyone is the architect of his own future," which means one's fate is decided in his own hands. In fact, no one is destined to a certain fate in his or her life. Those who claim that they were born to fail or be unlucky just can't realize how much inner strength and ability they have. We must depend on ourselves to change our lives and make us successful and happy.Let's take Hellen Keller, an extraordinary American woman, for example. Whenshe was only 19 months old, she became blind and deaf. Instead of accepting her misfortune helplessly, she showed great courage and unconquerable spirit in fighting against her destined fate and was awarded the President's Medal of Freedom in 1964 because of the achievements she had made for helping the blind, the deaf and the speechless. This story tells us that a wise man is always creating his own fate rather than waiting for good luck.In conclusion, I believe that everyone is born equal and is the builder of his own fate. We can have good fortune only if we take pains and work hard. We should bear the following saying in mind, "Every man is the master of his own fate."(266)18. My View on Wealth(A1)There is no consensus of opinions among people as to the view of wealth. Some people claim that wealth is the most powerful and important thing in life, while some other people believe that there are many things that can not be bought with wealth.As far as I am concerned, I agree with the latter opinion. Just as an old saying goes "Money can cure hunger, but it can't cure sadness," which means wealth can buy us some material things but can not make us happy and free from sadness and worries. In fact, happiness, true love, friendship, time, health are the most valuable things in the world and can never be bought with money. Those who try every means to make money for nothing just can't realize the true meaning of life and become the slaves of wealth. We should not live for money and consider it to be everything.For example, a millionaire who suffered from serious cancer was willing to buy his health at the expense of his whole fortune, but he failed and soon died in despair. This story tells us that money is far from omnipotence.In conclusion, I believe that money is not all powerful and there are some more important things that make our life meaningful and worth living. What we should bear in mind is that, "Money is a good servant but a bad master."(234)19. My View on the Negative Effects of Films(A1)Nowadays, people constantly find themselves exposed to various films. Films are indeed necessary to people. But some of the films really have negative effects on our life.The negative effects of these films are obvious. Some films are misleading. For example, some contain violence. The children like to imitate what they see in the films. So they are more likely to commit a crime when they grow up. Some films bring spiritual contamination. For instance, vulgar scenes sometimes appear in the films. Thus people's daily life is affected by the negative films.Therefore a strict law should be issued to keep the films under proper control. Under the guidance of this law, I think, films will play a better and better role in the future.20. Advantages of Advertisement(A1)Advertisement is an effective way for the producer to introduce his productsand the customer to know about the products he intends to buy. It is advantageous to both the producer and the customer.The producer, in an advertisement, usually offers detailed information about the products advertised, such as their good quality, their cheap price and their popularity. As a result, the products may sell well and the producer may benefit a lot.For the customer, advertisements provide him a good chance to get necessary information about the products he needs. For example, he can know where to get what he is badly in need of, and he can choose some products to his liking. Without advertisements people might have to grope in the dark.So we can safely say that advertisements are necessary and beneficial to both the producer and the customer. In fact, there are many things to be said for it. And I haven't said them all.(160)21. Should Smoking be Banned?(A3)Should smoking be banned? Answers to this question vary greatly.Some people are in favor of the idea of smoking. They always insist that it can get rid of the tiredness and make them refreshed. And giving and being given cigarettes in their views is a sign of friendship. Therefore, they carry cigarettes with them wherever they go.But other people consider it very harmful to people's health. They have heard the official reports that one person in the world dies from smoking every second. And doctors have been warning that smokers are more likely to have lung cancer and stand more chances of having heart attack. In addition, smoking pollutes the air and may cause fire accidents. Thus it has become a major threat to people's life and property.There is some truth in both arguments, but human's life and property outweighs anything else. If smoking brings us illness and death, why not have it banned by the government? Without cigarettes, can't we come up with better ways to express our friendship and make us refreshed?22. Is Television a Blessing or a Curse?(A3)Now, it is generally accepted that television plays an important part in people's lives. But there is an ongoing heated discussion as to whether television is a blessing or a curse.As is often pointed out by some people, television keeps one better informed about current events, allows one to follow the latest development in politics and science, and offers and endless series of programs which are both instructive and interesting. The most distant countries, the strangest customs and the most attractive scenes of nature are brought right into one's room.However, other people insist that television is a curse rather than a blessing. They argue that it has brought about many serious problems. The major one is its effects on young people. They are now so used to getting their information, education and entertainment from television that their literacy as well as physical abilityhas been greatly weakened. Even worse than that, vulgar commercials and indecent programs may cultivate their bad tastes, distort their viewpoints towards human life to such a degree that their minds might be corrupted.In summary, television has both advantages and disadvantages. Whatever effects it has, one thing is certain, television in itself is neither good nor bad. It is the use to which it is put that determines its value to society.23. Getting to Know the World Outside the Campus(A1)It is important for college students to get to know as much as possible about the world outside the campus. One reason is that knowledge without practical experience is just like trying to walk on one leg. Another reason is that maintaining contact with the world outside the campus helps the student become mature and responsible.There are many ways in which a student can get to know about the outside world. First, the mass media can keep the student up to date on political, cultural and sporting events, as well as the latest development in science and technology. Second, voluntary social services, home tutoring and surveys of factories or farms all offer students wide opportunities to get to know how ordinary people live.Personally, I intend to study hard to lay solid foundation for my future career. At the same time, I will take every opportunity to gain experience about the world beyond the campus by doing part-time jobs.24. Getting to Know the World Outside the CampusWith the development of our society, the campus should no longer be an "Ivory Tower". It is necessary for college students to go outside to get to know the world. They should acquire knowledge not only from books but also from the society. Thus they can adapt to society more quickly after graduate from school.Science and technology are developing rapidly with each passing day. Most students can keep themselves informed by watching TV, listening to the radio, reading newspapers and using computers. It's also good to take a part-time job, such as tutoring, or working in a restaurant. Any of these methods will enable students to get in touch with society.Summer vacation will soon be here. I've already enrolled to be a volunteer to help others. I think I can do well. Although I won't be paid, the most important thing is that I can learn a lot about society.25. Practice Makes Perfect(A1)Practice is the key to success in all fields of activity. It is practice alone that enables us to build up speed and efficiency. When we accomplish something perfectly without wasting effort, this is the result of long practice.Take the study of English for example. Only practice can enable us to spell words correctly and master the rules of grammar. And it is also through practice that we can become fluent in speaking and writing, there is no other way. Another good exampleis sports. Practice is the only way to become stronger and run faster. Besides, in team games practice is what improves our sense of cooperation and helps the team to win.To sum up, there can be no achievement which is not based on a solid foundation of practice.26. My Most Favorite Program(A1)China Central Television (CCTV) today offers a great variety of programs to satisfy different needs and tastes. For example, the weather forecast is of special interest to farmers. For another example, the concert program appeals greatly to music lovers. The sports world attracts large numbers of sports fans. My most favorite TV program, however, is the news network.The news network has several points that are worth mentioning, as far as its contents and features are concerned. For one thing, it covers news about important events at home and abroad. Besides, the news it provides is timely and reliable. Finally, broadcast in the evening during the so-called "golden time", the news network program reaches a wide range of audience.As for me, I like the program chiefly for two reasons. One is that it keeps me informed of the state of the nation and the world at large, which is essential to a college student. The other reason is that, since the news covers a comprehensive area and is fairly brief, it saves me much time from reading other newspapers for current affairs. In short, watching the news network on CCTV has become an indispensable part of my daily life.27. Advantages of a Job Interview(A1)You may have a job interview first if you want to get a good job before graduation. For an interviewer, he may have a lot of interviewees to choose, and for an interviewee, he may also have many jobs to choose. Therefore, both the interviewer and interviewee should be careful about their decision. It is only through the interview that both of them can know more about each other.On the one hand, the interviewer will make the interviewee know something about the job such as the property, the working conditions, salary, welfare, and ect. He may also ask the interviewee the reasons of applying for the job in order to know what he is. All these will help the interviewer to decide whether the interviewee is fit for the job or not.On the other hand, the interviewee will try to introduce himself in order to leave the interviewer a good impression. He will make the interviewer get some ideas of his educational background, ability, character, interest and viewpoint of the job. Remember to show your confidence in yourself. All these help the interviewer to decide whether you are suitable for the job or not.28. No Pains, No Gains(A1)No pains, no gains. This is a proverb full of logic. If we are to reach the top of a mountain, we must climb it. If we hope to achieve success, we have to do hardand painstaking work. On the contrary, the less one pains, the less he gains. To do nothing is to bring ruins upon oneself.Examples can be easily found to make a case for this proverb. A scientist may be well-known for his discovery. He is greatly rewarded for it and praised wherever he goes. Yet, how many sleepless nights did he spend doing experiments in his laboratory? No one knows. For a champion athlete, all the sweat proves to be necessary. Even a student's scholarship is preceded by hard work.In a word, happiness brought by success goes along with sacrifice of rest, relaxation and entertainment. Gains and pains unexceptionally go hand in hand.29 Jobs for Graduates(A1)Job hunting has always been a headache for college graduates. Though many graduates are employed right after graduation, some are not. Most serious of all, some still have no idea where to go working even a long time after graduation. The reasons for this phenomenon are various. On the one hand, a few years ago colleges and universities enrolled so many students in popular majors, such as economy, finance and so on that the number of graduates was greater than the need in the market. On the other hand, most graduates would rather stay in large cities without suitable job to do than go to the country.I think the problem can be solved if both colleges and students take measures. First, they should research the market and develop special skills to suit its need. Second, students' attitude towards employment should be changed. They should go to some small cities and country. There they can also give full play to their professional knowledge. In a word, if we pay much attention, the problem can be solved.3、图表作文:1)表格图特点:(1)数据多(2)点到为止2)表格图策略:首尾呼应[标题] Changes in People's DietDirections: Write a three-paragraph composition to:1.

2017专转本英语全真模拟卷(二)第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分.共40分)Directions:In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions.Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Some years ago the captain of a ship was very interested in medicine. He always took medicine books to sea and liked to talk about different diseases.One day a lazy sailor on his ship pretended to be ill. He lay on his bunk(铺)and groaned as if he were very sick. The captain came to see him and was very pleased to have a patient to look after. He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work. Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest. Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told the “sick” man to have a rest.The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do. The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking. At last the mate(船长副手) decided to cure the “sick” men. He mixed up some soap, soot(烟灰), glue(胶水) and other unpleasant things. Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick” men. When they tasted the medicine, they really did feel ill. It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of his bunk, ran up on deck and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour, night and day. This soon cured them. They both said they felt better and wanted to start work again. The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.1. The first sailor pretended to be ill because he wanted to ______.A. test the captain’s knowledge of medicineB. be free from workC. have the best food on the shipD. play a joke on his friends2. When the captain knew a sailor was ill, he ______.A. didn’t care muchB. sent for a doctorC. looked after him and told him to have a restD. gave him some medicine3. The patients felt better quickly because ______.A. they had been given proper treatmentB. they learned that the captain had found out the truthC. they were laughed at by their friendsD. the medicine the mate gave them was horrible4.

A Sudden Cure.B. Two Patients.C. Captain and Sailors.D. A Difficult Voyage.Passage TwoQuestions 6 to l0 are based on the following passage:When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was so difficult to separate from the ores (矿石) in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum became practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and pans.Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By mixing it with other metals, scientist have been able to produce a variety of alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engines of automobiles, in the hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge “airbus”planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them. Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite (铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refiningprocess with the aid of ______.A. wind powerB. solar energyC. hydraulic powerD. electricity7. Aluminum is ______.A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different formsB. heavyweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsC. lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsD. lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to becomerusty8. Which of the following is not true?A. Aluminum is widely used in transportation.B. Aluminum is also used in many parts of airplanes.C. Aluminum is being used extensively in the building industry.D. Aluminum is not used in its pure form.9. Aluminum is found on earth mostly in the form of ______.A. pure metalB. bauxiteC. goldD. liquid10. What is the passage talking about?A. The features of aluminum and its functions.B. The process of aluminum.C. The discovery of aluminum.D. The promising future of aluminum.Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to l5 are based on the following passage:One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night.Advertising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that if confers(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for – how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.11. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modernadvertising?A. Indifferent.B. Shocked.C. Disapproving.D. Approving.12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designsa product?A. Stress factors.B. Man-hours.C. Machine tolerances.D. Customer-appeal13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a productcustomer-appeal are ______.A. customersB. designersC. advertisersD. manufacturers14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, amanufacturer will choose to ______.A. lower the production costB. hire a better designerC. improve its qualityD. alter its image15. The best title for the passage might be ______.A. Advertising Since the WarB. Advertising and ManufacturersC. Advertising – England’s Biggest IndustryD. Advertising and PurchasersPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we do not know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to go about getting it. Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard (调车场). All of the switches (转辙器) are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we cannot. There is no ambiguity if we can see thesetting of a switch; we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events.When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our “track” many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will be followed.16. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the distant futureof the universe because we ______.A. have too many conflicting theoriesB. do not have enough funding to continue our researchC. are not sure how the universe is put togetherD. have focused our investigations on the moon and planets17. What does the author see as the function of the universe’s unseen “switches”?A. They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.B. They enable us to alter the course of the universe.C. They give us information about the lunar surface.D. They determine which course the universe will take in the future.18. In the second paragraph, the word “track” could best be replaced by which ofthe following?A. BandB. RailsC. PathD. Sequence19. For whom is the author probably writing this passage?A. Train engineers.B. General audiences.C. Professors of statistics.D. Young children.20. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?A. A statement illustrated by an analogy(类比).B. A hypothesis supported by documentation (引用文献).C. A comparison of two contrasting theories.D. A critical analysis of a common assumption.Part II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences. Each sentence is fallowed by four choices.

江苏省2017专转本英语全真模拟卷(三)
2017专转本英语全真模拟卷(三)第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分.共40分)Directions:In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions.Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Ask three people to look out the same window at a busy street corner and tell you what they see. Chances are you will receive three different answers. Each person sees the same scene, but each perceives something different about it.Perceiving goes on in our minds. Of the three people who look out the window, one may say that he sees a policeman giving a motorist a ticket. Another may say that he sees a rush-hour traffic jam at the intersection. The third may tell you that he sees a woman trying to cross the street with four children in tow. For perception is the mind’s interpretation of what the senses – in this case our eyes – tell us.Many psychologists today are working to try to determine just how a person experiences or perceives the world around him. Using a scientific approach, these psychologists set up experiments in which they can control all of the factors. By measuring and charting the results of many experiments, they are trying to find out what makes different people perceive totally different things about the same scene.1. Seeing and perceiving are ______.A. the same actionB. two separate actionsC. two actions carried on entirely by eyesD. several actions that take place at different times2. Perceiving is an action that takes place ______.A. in our eyesB. only when we think very hard about somethingC. only under the direction of a psychologistD. in every person’s mind3. People perceive different things about the same scene because ______.A. they see different thingsB. some have better eyesightC. they cannot agree about thingsD. none of these4. Which of the following is implied but not stated in the passage?A. Psychologists do not yet know how people see.B. The experiments in which all factors are controlled are better.C. The study of perception is going on now.D. Perception does not involve psychological factors.5. The best title for this selection is ______.A. How we seeB. Learning about our minds through scienceC. What psychologists perceiveD. How to become an experimental psychologistPassage TwoQuestions 6 to l0 are based on the following passage:The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that 40 percent of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon (结肠). Different cultures are more prone to get certain illnesses because of the food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites (亚硝酸盐), commonly used to preserve color in meats, and other food additives, caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which things on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful. The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to beef and poultry (家禽), and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows. Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices continue.6. How has science done a disservice to mankind?A. Because of science, most of the foods we eat today are contaminated.B. It has caused a lack of information concerning the value of food.C. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added to our food.D. The scientists have preserved the color of meats, but not of vegetables.7. What are nitrates used for?A. They preserve flavor in packaged foods.B. They preserve the color of meats.C. They are the objects of research.D. They cause the animals to become fatter.8. The FDA has tried repeatedly to control ______.A. the attempt to fatten the animalsB. the attempt to cure sick animalsC. the using of drugs to animalsD. the using of additives to preserve the color of food9. The word “carcinogenic” means most nearly the same as ______.A. trouble-makingB. color-retainingC. money-savingD. cancer-causing10. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Drugs are always given to animals for medical reasons.B. Some of the additives in our food are added to the food itself and some aregiven to the living animals.C. Researchers have known about the potential hazards of the food additives forover thirty-five years.D. Food may cause forty percent of cancer in the world.Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to l5 are based on the following passage:Unlike their American or European counterparts, car salesmen in Japan work hard to get a buyer. Instead of lying lazily around showrooms waiting for customers to drop by, many Japanese car salesmen still go out to get them. They walk wearily along the streets selling cars door-to-door. New customers are hunted with a determination and existing ones entertained with fruit and cakes on their birthdays. But life is getting tough, and not just because new-car sales are falling.With more Japanese women (who often control the household budget) going out to work, the salesmen increasingly find nobody at home when they call. That means another visit in the evening or at the weekend. Then they face an extra problem: more people, especially the young, prefer to choose a new car from a showroom where they can compare different models.Even as late as the mid-1980s some 90% of new cars were sold door-to-door. In some rural areas most new cars are still sold this way. But in the big cities more than half the new cars are now sold from showrooms.Although investing in showrooms is expensive because of the high cost of Japanese land, dealers have little choice. A labor shortage and higher expectations among Japan's workforce are making it difficult to hire door-to-door salesmen. Most of a Japanese car salesman's working day is spent doing favors for customers, like arranging insurance or picking up vehicles for servicing, rather than actually selling.Japan's doorstep car salesmen are not about to vanish. The personal service they provide is so deep-rooted in Japan that they are likely to operate alongside the glittering new showrooms. The two systems even complement each other. What increasingly happens is that the showroom attracts the interest of a potential buyer,giving the footsore salesmen a firm lead to follow up with a home visit.11. Japanese car salesmen usually do not wait at showrooms for customers to dropby; instead, ______.A. they sell cars door-to-door.B. they buy presents for their customersC. they enjoy themselves in recreation centersD. they go out to do market researches12. Implied but not stated: the competition in car market is ______.A. lightB. moderateC. fierceD. unfair13. Young people like to buy a new car ______.A. at homeB. from a showroomC. made in the U.S.A.D. made in Japan14. The squadron of Japanese car salesmen is reducing because of ______.A. a labor shortageB. higher expectations among Japan's workforceC. high cost landD. both A and B15. Japanese car salesmen do their customers many favors such as ______.A. showing them around in an exhibitionB. arranging insuranceC. paying them a visit on weekendsD. selling old cars for themPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Every change in exchange rates, whether upward or downward, helps some firms and individuals and hurts others. When a country's currency appreciates, its export industries suffer, as do industries that compete with imports. However, consumers benefit from the availability of low-cost imports, and they profit from efforts by domestic producers to cut costs and improve quality in response to foreign competition. Also, profits rise and the number of jobs increases in sectors that use imported raw materials and in those devoted to marketing and servicing imported goods.When a country's currency depreciates, the effects are reversed: Consumers face higher prices; people who sell and service imported goods suffer; but export industries boom, and import-competing industries enjoy a relief from international competition. The former winners become the losers, and vice versa. These effects insure that exchange rates are a matter of constant concern for policymakers.16. When a country's currency appreciates, its export industries ______.A. benefitB. sufferC. are not affectedD. increase their profits17. When a country's currency depreciates ______.A. consumers face higher pricesB. people who sell and service imported goods sufferC. export industries boomD. A,B, and C will happen18. In response to foreign competition, the domestic producers ______.A. cut cost and improve qualityB. hire more peopleC. fire some peopleD. lower their product prices19. When a country's currency appreciates ______.A. consumers benefit from low cost importsB. consumers profit from foreign competitionC. consumers have more work opportunitiesD. both A and B20. According to the article, the exchange rates are a matter of ______.A. constant concern for policymakersB. occasional concern for policymakersC. temporary concern for policymakersD. unimportant concern for policymakersPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

江苏省2017年普通高校专转本选拔考试英语真题附参考答案
江苏省2017年普通高校专转本选拔考试Part 1 Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions There are 4 passages in this part,Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements,For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passageWe use both words and gestures to express our feelings,but the problem is that these words and gestures can be understood in different waysIt is true that a smile means the same thing in any language,So does laughter or crying.There are also a number of striking similarities in the way different animals show the same feelings .Dogs, tigers and humans,for example, often show their teeth when they are angry. This is probably because they are born with those behavior patternsFear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In Chinese and English literature, a phrase like “he went pale and begin to tremble” suggests that the man is either very afraid or deep shocked, However,” he opened his eyes wide” is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surprise In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase li ke “they stretched out their tongues” Sticking out your tongue in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislikeEven in the same culture, people differ in ability to understand and express feelings,Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear,anger,love and happiness on people’s faces,Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do.1.According to the passage,——BA.We can hardly understand what people’s gestures meanB.words and gestures may have different meaning in different culturesC.words can be better understood by older peopleD.gestures can be understood by most of the people while words can not2.People’s facial expressions may be misunderstood because——BA people of different ages may have different understandingB people have different culturesC people of different sexes may understand a gesture differentlyD people of different countries speak different languages3 .Even in the same culture. people ——AA.have different abilities to understand and express feelingsB.have exactly the same understanding of somethingC.never fail to understand each otherD.are equally intelligent4.From this passage, we can conclude ——CA words are used as frequently as gesturesB words are often difficult to understandC words and gestures are both used in expressing feelingsD gestures are more efficiently used than words5.The best title for this passage may be ——BA.Words and FeelingsB.Words,Gestures and FeelingsC.Gestures and FeelingsD.Culture and UnderstandingPassage TowQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passageThe English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are"copper" and "bobby" the first name comes from the verb "to cop". (which is also slang).meaning to take or to capture". and the second comes from the first name of Sir Robert Peel, the nineteenth-century politician, who was the of the police force as we know it today. An early nickname for the policeman was "peeler" but this one has died out.Whatever we may call them,the general opinion of the police seems to be a favorable one, except, of course, among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more derogatory nicknames which originated in America, such as "fuzz" or "pig". Visitors to England seem to be very impressed by the English police. It has. In fact, become a standing joke that the Visitor to Britain, when asked tar his views of the country. will always say, at some point or other, "I think your policemen are wonderful."Well,the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character. A music-hall song of some years ago was called "If You Want To Know The Time, Ask A Policeman". Nowadays. most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen. In London, the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else.Two things are Immediately noticeable to the stranger, when he sees an English policeman for the first time. The first is that he does not carry a pistol and the second is that he wears a very distinctive of headgear. the policeman's helmet ,His helmet, together which his height,enables an English policeman to he seen from a considerable distance, a fact that is not without its usefulness. From time to time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a pistol and that his helmetshould be taken from him, but both these suggestions are resisted by given and that his helmet should be taken from him ,but both suggestions are resisted by the majority of the public and the police themselves.6.Nowadays British people call the policeman ——CA.pigB. peelerC. BobbyD. Fuzz7. Which of the following statements is TRUE? BA. There are fewer criminals America than tn Britain.B. The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors.C. The English bobby is friendly but not helpful.D. The English police enjoy having pistols.8.

Visitors praise the English police because ——AA.they are polite and helpfulB. they obey ordersC. they often given thanksD. they are armed with modem equipmentPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory. The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to he found in our pastexperiences,which are brought into the present by memory.Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It not only includes "remembering" things like arithmetic or historical facts but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers. for example, contain devices from storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000" words" -ready for instant use. An average American teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider. tar example- the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.The use of words is the bass of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person's memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.11.According to the passage, memory is considered to be ——BA.the basis for decision making and problem solvingB. the ability to store information for future useC. an intelligence typically possessed by human beingsD. the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words12.The comparison between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that——Cputer's memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager'sB. computer's memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being'sC. computer's memory's capacity is much smaller even than a teenager'sD. computer's memory's capacity is the same as a teenager's13.1t is implied in the passage that ——CA. only human beings have problem-solving intelligenceB a person's memory is different from a computer's in every respectC. animals can solve very simple problemsD animals solve problems by instincts rather than intelligence14.The phrase “in terms of”in the last sentence can be best replaced by——BA.in connection withB.expressed byC.consistingD.by means of15.The main idea of the passage is——BA.What life would be like without memoryB.Memory is of vital importance to lifeC.How a person’s memory different from an animal’s or a computer’sD.What memory carriesPassage fourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passageClearly if we are to participate 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 to have our views challenged by other members of society.Face to face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advanced imprinting, 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( 黯然失色) by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to(只限于) a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. For 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 modem 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 part, the vast modem network of communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back.16.The first paragraph the writer emphasizes the ——of face-to-face contact in social setting. DA.nature B.limitation C.creativity D.Usefulness17.The development of the communication industry in contemporary society results from ——BA.the advances and revolutionsB.the inventiveness and speedC.the art of mass communicationD.the advances and speed18.It is implied in the passage that —— C .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 news19.Which of the following statements is NOT true? AA.Public libraries have replaced the private libraries.B.To possess information used to be a privilegeC.Communication means more than transmission.D.Communication influences ways of life and thinking.20.It can be inferred from the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is ___A___.A.concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaB.Happy about the flexible change in the mass mediaC.Pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD.Indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass medPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions : there are 40 incomplete sentences in this part For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.

This is probably because they are born with those behavior patterns .Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world . In Chinese and English literature , a phrase like “he went pale and began to tremble”suggests that the man is either very afraid or deeply shocked . However , “he opened his eyes wide ” is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surprise . In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase like “they stretched out their tongues ”. Sticking out your tongue in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislike .Even in the same culture , people differ in the ability to understand and express feelings Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear ,anger love and happiness on people’s faces . Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do .1.According to the passage , _________.A.we can hardly understand what people’s gestures meanB.words and gestures may have different meanings in different culturesC.words can be better understand by older peopleD.gestures can be better understand by most of the people while words can not2.People’s facial expressions may be misunderstand because______。

I mean he is so special and so good at everything he does. Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team.Well, to be honest, I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star. I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father’s Day writing competition for the whole school. “I hope we have a winner right here in my class.”When I got home, I started to think about what to write. My father is an astronaut. NO. I wouldn’t start like that. That was the way others saw him. How did I see my father? Hmm.I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream. I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car. Y es, these were the things I was going to write. To me, he wasn’t just a world-famous astronaut. He was my dad.My parents and I went to school Thursday night. There were so many people in the big hall! My dad looked at me, and I shrugged (耸肩).The third prize was announced (宣布) and it was not me. I was relieved (释然) and disappointed at the same time. The second prize was announced. It was me.I went up to the stage and read what I had written. “My father’s son.” When I finished, the people stood up and cheered. I saw my father blowing his nose. Tears were running down my mother’s face. Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder. “Son, this is the proudest moment of my life.”It was the proudest moment of my life, too. Maybe I’ll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my father’s son.16.

For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneThis is not the world we know. This world is controlled by computers. Men and women can be seen, but they are following orders given to them by machines. The machines were designed by mad scientists, but at some point even the mad scientists were taken over by their super-inventions.Does this sound familiar? You have probably read something like it in magazines or books, or seen it in a film. Why is it so popular? One of the reasons is that it reflects the fears of many people; fear of the unknown, fear of what is not understood or, at least, fear of something that is not completely understood.The fact is that every day it seems that computers take control of another area of our lives. Some factory jobs are now done by robots and the robots are controlled by computers. Our bank accounts are managed by computers. At the airport, our tickets are sold by a computer. Certainly, many of these operations are made more efficient by computers, but our admiration is sometimes mixed with unsafe feelings. And this lack of safety is caused by the fact that we do not know how computers do these things, and we really don’ t know what they might do next.But we can find out how computers work, and once we understand them, we can use computers instead of worrying about being used by them. Today, there is a new generation of computer wizards (奇才 who know exactly how computers get things done. These young men and women, usually university students, are happy to sit for hours, sometimes for days, designing programs, not eating, not sleeping, but discovering whatcan be done by these wonderful slaves which they have learned to control. These computer wizards have learned to use the computer and search for new tasks for their machines.161. We can know that the scientists who designed the machines _____________.A. are careless in their daily lifeB. are unkind and cruelC. are out of their mindD. have great abilities162. The reason why many people are afraid of computers is that ____________.A. they don't know anything about computersB. they haven't really understood computersC. there are so many computer gamesD. computers are often down163. The author mentions computer wizards in order to point out that ____________.A. computers can be controlled by manB. there should be more people devoted to computersC. only young people are interested in computersD. more time and energy is required to control computers164. This passage is probably written to suggest that ____________.A. some day computers can deal with all human problemsB. computers can be used in place of traveling to our jobsC. people should not fear computersD. computer technology will not meet people’ s needs in various situations165. The author's attitude (态度 towards widely used computers is_________.A. positiveB. anxiousC. worriedD. curiousPassage TwoKnowledge is power. But there is another thing we must remember. An intelligent mind needs a strong body to make it most useful.There are a great many good exercises for building up our bodies. Many of them may be done indoors in rainy weather. Indoor exercises, however, are never as helpful as those taken out of doors because in the open air there is more oxygen. The air in the house is not fresh. But out of doors it is very fresh, especially in the morning.But what shall we play? There are a number of games such as football, basketball, races and so on. Any game with plenty of exercises is good.Do not neglect your health. It is of as much importance as your mind. Our country now needs people with creative minds, good judgment, and healthy bodies.166. One who has an intelligent mind is ______ .A. very strongB. very healthyC. very cleverD. very stupid167. “ An intelligent mind needs a strong body to make it useful.” mea ns ______ .A. if you want to make your strong body useful, you must have an intelligent mindB. in order to make your intelligent mind useful, you must have a strong bodyC. to make your strong mind and strong body most useful you need a strong bodyD. if you have a strong body you will have a strong mind168. Which of the following statements is true?A. Indoor exercises are as helpful as outdoor ones.B. Indoor exercises are no more helpful than outdoor exercises.C. Neither indoor exercises nor outdoor exercises are helpful.D. Outdoor exercises are more helpful than indoor ones.169. The air in the house does not remain fresh very long. It’ s because ______.A. the fresh air can’ t come into the houseB. there is only a little fresh air coming in and a little waste going outC. the air in the house can’ t move at allD. the house gives off wastes170. Our country now ______ with creative minds, good judgment and healthy bodies.A. needs men and womenB. only needs menC. only needs scientistsD. does not need women but menPassage ThreeSurvival is an art. Survivors are artists. The best acting is done in daily life, not on the stage. My late uncle Sir Alexander Korda, the motion-picture producer who could “ charm money out of an empty safe ” , was a gift ed survivor.Once, a group of investors called him in to complain that he had lost 5 000 000 of their money. Most men would have tried to defend themselves. Alex did not. “ You are right,” he said quietly, “ I have been wasteful, and careless. I have chose n the wrong。
