In fact, even though he was the first American man to ever win the downhill skiing event, many 26 him as a true Olympic hero. He was a rebellious kid who came from a troubled background, and he boasted too much. Moreover, he only became 27 in skiing because a judge sent him to a ski school after he had stolen a car at age 17. There was no lifelong 28 to the sport. He did not 29 the Olympic spirit. He did not gain distinction by continuously training for his event.Still, few failed to 30 his marvelous race in the 1984 Winter Olympic Games in Sarajevo. He was just a natural skier and his technique was 31 for the course. And so even before the race began, he was 32 victory. "This course was made for me. Nothing can stop me," he had boasted. He also caused some comments when he talked about the millions of dollars he would be able to make after he won the race. This made many skiers 33 toward him. That just 34 him even more. Then on the day of the event, he turned out the fastest. "It takes a lot of courage to throw yourself down a mountain," Bill Johnson 35 proudly after he won a gold medal for the United States. "Not many can do that."第 2 页共 5 页命题教师：刘艳茹审核人：Ⅲ Read the following passages and choose the best answer. （2 points each ， 30 points in all ）Passage 1I'm beginning to wonder whether my grandmother isn't right when she complains, as she frequently does, that children nowadays aren't as well-mannered as they used to be. Whenever she gets the opportunity, she describes in detail how she used to be told to respect her elders and betters. She was taught to speak only when she was spoken to, and when she went out on her own, she was reminded to say "please" and "thank you". Children in her day, she continues, were expected to be seen and not heard, but these days you are lucky if you ever hear parents telling their children to mind their p's and q's.If you give her the chance she then takes out of her desk the old photograph album which she keeps there, and which she never tires of displaying. Of course when you look at pictures of her parents you feel sure that, with a father as hard-looking as that, you, too, would have been "seen and not heard". Beside him sits his wife, with their children around her: Granny and her elder brothers. It always occurs to me that perhaps those long, stiff, black clothes were very heavy to a little girl, that she hadn't enough breath left to talk, let alone bad. It must have been a dull and lonely life too, for she stayed mainly at home during her childhood, while her brothers were sent away to school from an early age.That said, my childhood was much freer than Granny's. I went to school with my brother, and I played football with him and his friends. We all spoke a common language and we got up to the same trouble. I would have died if I had had to stay indoors, wear a tight frock (女式礼服), and sew.36. How can we understand "children in her day were expected to be seen and not heard"? A. Children were not supposed to be heard by others.B. Children were not supposed to hear their parents' conversation.C. Children were not supposed to speak in the face of others.D. Children were not supposed to speak until asked to do it.37. What is the expression of "mind their p's and q's" supposed to mean?A. To mind their own business. B. To remember to say "please". C. To remember to say "thank you". D. To be well-mannered.38. Which of the following words can be used to describe Granny's feelings of her own childhood?A. Lonely. B. Dull. C. Proud. D. Happy.39. How did the author feel about her Granny's childhood?A. Disappointed.B. Unbearable.C. Respectable.D. Indifferent.40. Why did Granny often complain about modern children's behavior?A. She missed those good old days. B. She was too harsh on children. C. She didn't like kids who talk a lot. D. She was not open to new things.Passage 2Time spent in a bookshop can be most pleasant, whether you are a book-lover or merely there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. You soon focus on some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent too much time there and must hurry off to keep some forgotten appointment.This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is the main attraction of a bookshop. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can range round such places to your heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the greeting, "Can I help you?" You needn't buy anything you don't want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished reading. Then, and only then, are his services necessary.Once a medical student had to read a textbook which was far too expensive for him to buy. He couldn't obtain it from the library and the only copy he could find was in a bookshop. Every afternoon, therefore, he would go to the shop and read a little of the book at a time. One day, however, he was disappointed to find the book missing from its usual place. He was about to leave, when he noticed the owner of the shop making a gesture to him with his hand. Expecting to be scolded, he went towards him. To his surprise, the owner pointed to the book which was put away in a corner. "I put it there in case anyone had a desire to buy it!" he said, and left the delighted student to continue his reading. 41. Time spent in a bookshop can be most pleasant _______________.A. only when you can find the book you want to buy B. only when you are a book-loverC. even when you enter it to avoid a sudden showerD. even when you know you are late for an appointment42. A bookshop is of much attraction because ______________ .A. it offers you an opportunity to forget about everyday life第 3 页共 5 页命题教师：刘艳茹审核人：B. it offers you an opportunity to listen to as much music as possibleC. it allows you to learn about new ideas and ways of doing thingsD. it allows you to have a good excuse for being late for an appointment 43. In a good bookshop __________.A. an assistant should always follow youB. an assistant should frequently approach you and offer helpC. you needn't buy anything you don't wantD. you can communicate freely with an assistant44. The medical student went to a bookshop every day _____________.A. to look for useful books B. to read a textbookC. to talk with the shop ownerD. to use the computer at the shop45. The owner of the bookshop put away the book ______________.A. in case other people wanted to buy itB. in case the medical student wanted to buy itC. because he wanted to sell it at a high priceD. because he wanted to keep it for himself Passage 3Open or distance learning has had a major effect on higher education through the Open University, the only university to provide education exclusively for adult learners studying at a distance. Our 100,000 students are currently studying at the Open University. We found limited development of distance learning in the case studies, with the exception of some postgraduate and professional courses. Even here, however, there seemed to be limits on further growth because of the high costs involved in setting up new distance learning courses, as well as uncertainties of demand (particularly in terms of the perceived financial returns on study). One of the case study universities provided video facilities and visiting staff to a rural area for a group of undergraduate students about 50 miles away. This was a new development which was working well and likely to be expanded to involve other universities.The main reason for general lack of development of distance learning, especially at the undergraduate level, may be that other universities have been unable to afford the considerable set-up costs and student support facilities. As costs of technology come down this might change. The Open Learning Foundation is developing connections between universities to set open learning approaches within existing programs of study and thus encourage their greater use. This is seen as likely to develop further in the future.46. The Open University provides an education for _________________.A. students who do not like attending regular universitiesB. students who failed the College Entrance ExaminationC. students who are adults and away from a universityD. students who are limited in their ability to learn47. Among other things, the further growth of distance learning at postgraduate and professional levels is limited by ____________________.A. the high costs involved B. a low student demand C. a lack of educationD. the poor rural technology48. The attempt of one case study university to provide equipment and staff to a rural group of students _________. A. would be expanded B. did not work well C. might help learning D. could cost a lot49. The cost of setting up a distance learning program might change ______________.A. as new developments are made B. as more students take classes there C. as the Open University helps more D. as technology becomes cheaper50. The tone of this passage can best be described as ________________. A. discouraging B. encouraging C. persuasive D. scientificIV Translate the following sentences into Chinese.（10 points in all ）“We are slaves to nothing but the clock, ”it has been said. Time is treated as if it were something almost real. We budget it, save it, waste it, steal it, kill it, cut it, account for it; we also charge for it. It is a precious resource. Many people have a rather acute sense of the shortness of each lifetime. Once the sands have run out of a person’s hourglass, they cannot be replaced.ⅤWriting （15 points in all ）Direction: For this part, you are asked to write a short essay on the topic: Shopping on the Internet .

It was lunchtime and he felt very hungry. “Well, here is a restaurant. I am going to have something to eat.” He walked towards the restaurant when he saw the notice. “American people are really strange. They even eat dinners on the house! But how can I get up to the top of the house?” he said to himself. He looked around and found a ladder against a tree nearby. He was very glad. But as he reached the top he heard someone shouting at him.“Hey, what are you doing up there?” Mr. Smith was looking at him angrily and beside him was a policeman.“Doesn‟t your notice say …Meals on the House for Three Days‟? Is it just a joke?” the foreign student answered.Hearing this, both Mr. Smith and the policeman la ughed. “Do you know what ON THE HOUSE mean? Look it up in the dictionary.” the policeman suggested (建议).( )1. How did Mr. and Mrs. Smith attract customers?A. They played a lot of jokes on them.B. They offered them meals 24 hours a day.C.

In the last forty years, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreign companies now have offices in Japan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world. Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder foreign businessmen and make doing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.The American businessman, for example, wants to start talking business immediately. He does not want to wait. The Japanese businessman, on the other hand, likes to arrive at decisions after giving them serious thought. Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is because of cultural differences between Japanese and Western society(社会), Which make it difficult for a Japanese to say "No" directly.In the USA, it is easy to say "No" to something one does not want to do. But in Japan, it is very difficult to say "No". To refuse an invitation or a request(请求) with "No" is felt to be impolite. It is thought to be selfish and unfriendly. So instead of saying "No" directly, the Japanese have developed many ways to avoid(避免) saying "No". These can help them avoid hurting other people's feelings. However, this often makes their ways of doing business rather difficult for foreigners to understand and follow.( ) 1. What often makes foreigners feel difficult to do business in Japan?A. Their different ways of doing business.B. Their different lifestyles.C. The fact that the Japanese never say "No".D. The fact that the Japanese are slow to take action.( ) 2. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined expression "bewilder foreign businessmen" in Paragraph One?A. cause foreign businessmen to change their minds.B. give a feeling of surprise to foreign businessmen.C. attract foreign businessmen's attention.D. make foreign businessmen think wrongly.( ) 3. What fact does the passage lead you to believe?A. American businessmen do things more slowly than Japanese ones.B. American businessmen like to say "Yes" and "No".C. Americans usually say what they are thinking.D. Americans do not say what they think or feel clearly.( ) 4. From the passage we can infer(推断) that __________.A. Japanese businessmen are good at businessB. foreign businessmen should try to know Japanese ways of doing businessC. foreign businessmen must be more politeD. you must learn from Japanese businessmen if you want to succeed第二卷五．词汇运用1.

Now I will talk about the differences between them.The first difference is in appearance. Going around in the U.S., I found that American youth do not really care about their appearance. In the morning, they choose something in their closet and wear it with another thing., often of different colors and styles, without wondering whether their choices make them look strange. The reason behind this is that they don’t care what people look like, but are just interested in their ideas. I think it’s great, but it also causes problems. Since they don’t care about their appearance, they don’t really care about their weight. Often they get fat without realizing it.I observed that there are differences in relationships too. When the American youth fall in love, they don’t really think of the future. Also, there are differences in the rules concerning behavior that is allowed. In some respects, the French are more accepting. For example, in America it is generally unacceptable to make physical display of love. Lovers, in theory, can’t kiss or hold each other everywhere they want. People think that not showing love in public places is a way to respect others. On the contrary, the French youth can do almost everything they want, and they are usually more concerned about the future of the relationship than the American youth.With regard to other types of relationships, there are also big differences. Americans act differently from French people in front of unknown people. When an American girl, for example, arrives in front of people she has never met before, she will talk with them, trying to create a kind of bond between her and this new circle of people. The French girls will just think about rather than really do this kind of thing because they are too shy and lacking in self-confidence.To finish, I noticed that in American classes, when pupils want to say or ask something, they just do it. In general, they don’t really care how the others will judge them. In France, it’s not the same case. If somebody wants to ask something, he/she will think about it before speaking up. I appreciate the freedom in Americans’behavior, ideas, and ways of expressing themselves.1.In this article, the author talks about_____ between American youth and French youth.A)the friendship B) the differences and similaritiesC) the similarities D) the differences2. American young people __________.A) are more concerned about appearanceB) show more interest in people’s ideasC) are just interested in people’s clothesD) care more about their weight3.American youth often____.A) wonder why they look strange B) care what people look likeC) neglect their weight D) cause problems with their ideas4.When American youth fall in love with each other, they_____.A) will kiss wherever they likeB) will always think about their futureC) will not hold each otherD) will rarely display their love in public5 If French pupils want to ask questions in class, they will_______.A) ask for the teacher’s permission firstB) speak up before the teacher permitsC) try to control themselves not to do soD) think about it before they do soKeys: DBCDDPassage 2Building Your Business, Building Your PeopleWhat an exciting thing to do ----developing a successful business ! I have been part of the building .And developing of four active , successful businesses. We are in a great stage of growth and development right now at my company, Progress Productions, and i am reminded every day of some of the most important ideas for progress.Here are five ideas to keep in mind that can make a significant difference in a team:Understand Your PeopleIf I want my team to go and grow with me, I need to find out what excites them. What are their personal drives and what keeps them form being at their best? What do they need in their work environment to improve their mental well-being? What are their fears and concerns,, and how can I help them manage these fears and concerns? What are their values and goals, and how can I ensure they are in agreement with mine? It is important to remember that all your careful planning, you goals, and your purposes will be useless if you need other people to help youmake them happen and those people do not have the same level of commitment to them as you.Help People Build Self--confidenceThis is a major discovery for me, During my early years in management. I realized the great power of expectations on performance. As I found, people largely lived up to my expectation of them. SO i learned that if u want to build my business through my people, I have to build their own belief in their capacity to achieve, This belief must be educated. Not to the point of any false belief about current performance, but with a real conviction about potential If I want to lift their achievement, i must help them lift their trust in themselves first.Give People Floors, Walls, but No CeilingsWhile we are growing, we usually want a level of security beneath us ,a floor or a foundation. Keep your people informed of your plans and your activities, so that they know where they stand . Allow them freedom of operation within defined and measurable frameworks, and let them know the sky is the limit for achievement, for recognition, and for reward.Teach people to Treasure RecognitionWherever I speak and give advice to people, they tell me they do not get enough recognition. Sad, is not it? I usually ask them how much recognition they give. They look at me as if i am crazy, but a good culture of recognition should be carefully developed, with praise and appreciation shown both up and down, and sideways, in a team. Find interesting ways to encourage everyone in your team to recognize achievement in others, but be careful to keep it genuine, spontaneous and both individual--and team--based. Teach your team to ask for the opinions of others if they are not receiving recognition the way they want it, and teach them they have the responsibility for creating it.Encourage People to Be CreativeEach one of us has created our life just the way we choose to have it, or at least the way we have settled for it . Those who have been told they are creative will probably use their creativity bravely. Others who have not had their creativity encouraged will mostly believe they are uncreative, I suggest you encourage your people to be creative and brave in trying out new ideas.Building a business is greatly rewarding and building your people is equally rewarding. Seeing your people develop as a result of your encouragement, advising, and management is a great joy!!!1 Form the first paragraph we know the authors present company is _________A, developing quicklyB. creating important ideasC. progressing productionsD. making a significant difference2 It is necessary to find out your team’s personal drives so that you _________A.can improve their mental well--beingB.Can help them manage their fearsC.Can keep them at their bestD.Can agree with their values and goals3 Careful planning, goals, and purposes will be useful only when_______A.your team members come to helpB.Your team members are resourcefulC.Your team members are interested in themD.Your team members are as committed to them as you4 If you help your employees believe in themselves, you can ______A.receive more educationB.Lift their achievementC.Get more trust from themD.Have more opportunities5 According to the author, an employer should______A.give his people the freedom to do whatever they likeB.Reward his people within defined frameworksC.Provide his people freedom of operation within measurable frameworksD.Tell his people the sky is the limit for operationKey: ACDBCPassage 3Computer VirusesThe computer virus is an outcome of the computer overgrowth in the 1980s. The term computer virus comes from the likeness between the viruses that harm the body and the harmful programs that infect computers. When inside a body, viruses create factories that breed other viruses. However, computer viruses are small programs. They reproduce by attaching a copy of themselves to another program.Once attached to another program, viruses then look for other programs to “infect”. In this way, the virus can spread quickly throughout a single computer or an entire network when it infects a LAN or a multi-user system. At some point, the virus attacks according to how it isprogrammed. The timing of the attack can be linked to a number of situations, such as a certain time or date, the presence of a particular object, the security level of the user, and the number of times a program is used. Similarly, the pattern of attack comes in different ways. The so-called “harmless”viruses might simply show a message, like the one that infected IBM’s main computer system in 1987 with Christmas greetings. Harmful viruses are designed to damage the system. They can wipe out data, cross out information, or rewrite the hard disk.Main Types of VirusesThere are four main types of viruses: shell, intrusive(侵扰的)，operating system, and source code(源代码).Shell viruses wrap themselves around a host program, but don’t change it. Shell programs are easy to write, which is why about half of viruses are of this type.Intrusive viruses invade an existing program and actually place a part of them into the host program. Intrusive viruses are hard to write and very difficult to remove without damaging the host file.Shell and intrusive viruses usually attack executable program files --- those with a .com or .exe extension, although data files are also at risk.Operating system viruses work by replacing part of the operating system with their own code. They are very difficult to write and have the ability, once loaded, to take total control of your syste.Operating system viruses are intrusive programs that are inserted into a source program such as those written in Pascal prior to the program being followed. They are the least common viruses because they are not only hard to write, but also have a limited number of hosts compared with the other types.Be Cautious About the Second Network VirusesDo you believe it? Network viruses can steal money! And they are coming for your computer right now. So far the Internet has become the main channel through which computer viruses spread. Even without getting information from the network, your computer can be infected by the second network computer viruses, which are hidden in some machines on the network.The virus that can steal your money is a kind of the second network viruses. It was designed and inserted in some machines on the network. When your computer is linked to one of these machines, the virus will invade your hard disk and search whether Intuit Quicken, an accounting program, is installed. One of this accounting program’s functions is to transfer accounts automatically. Once the program is infected, your money will be transferred to an additional account opened by the virus program without anybody knowing it.1. Computer viruses are small programs, which _________A, are similar to the viruses that harm the human bodyB. invade a living cell and produce other virusesC. reproduce by attaching a copy of themselves to another programD. come into being during the computer overgrowth in the 1990s2. Viruses can infect other programs if only they are _________E.affected by another programF.spread throughout a computerG.attached to another programH.attacked by other programs3.

About 50% of viruses are shell viruses, because shell viruses______E.reproduce fastF.invade an existing programG.are easy to writeH.have a host programKey: CCBDCPassage 4 Bright HeartLast Tuesday I was invited to participate in a party for Tuesday’s Children,an organization that helps children with the AIDS virus. I was asked to attend because I’m on a television show. I don’t think that most of the kids recognized me as a famous person, but as a big kid who came to play with them for the day. I think I liked it better that way.At the party, they had all kinds of activities. I was drawn to one in particular because all the children were taking part in it. In that activity, anyone who wanted toparticipate could paint a square. Later all the painted squares were going to be sewn together to make a wall hanging. The wall hanging would be presented to a man who had devoted much of his life to this organization and would soon be retiring. They gave everyone some paints in bright, beautiful colors and asked the kids to paint something that would make the wall hanging beautiful. As I looked around at all the squares, I saw pink hearts and bright blue clouds, beautiful orange sunrise, and green and purple flowers. The pictures were all bright, positive, and uplifting. All except for one.The boy sitting next to me was painting a heart, but it was dark, empty, and lifeless. It lacked the bright, lively colors that his fellow artists had used.At first I thought maybe he took the only paint that was left and it just happened to be dark. But when I asked him about it, he said his heart was that color because his heart felt dark and because he was very sick. He said that his sickness was not ever going to get better. He looked straight into my eyes and said, “There is nothing anyone can do that will help.”I told him I was sorry that he was sick and I could certainly understand why he was so sad. I could even understand why he had made his heart a dark color. But I also told him that it isn’t true that there is nothing anyone can do to help. Other people may not be able to make him better, but we can do things like sharing our time and our love, which in my experience can really help when people are feeling sad. I told him that if he liked, I would be happy to spend some time talking with him so that he could see what I meant. But instead of talking with me, he did something different. He instantly came near to me and wrapped his arms around my neck. When he did this, I thought my own heart would burst with the love for this sweet little boy.He sat there talking with me for a long time and when he had had enough, he jumped down to finish his coloring. I asked him if he felt any better and he said that he did, but he was still sick and nothing would change that. I told him I understood. I walked away feeling sad, but I determined that I would do whatever I could to help. As the day was coming to an end and I was getting ready to head home, I felt a slight pull on my jacket. I turned around and standing there with a smile on his face was the little boy. He said, “My heart is changing colors. It is getting brighter.

I thought, at the time, 22this was just a story but then I 23 it with my own eyes many times.On the afternoon I arrived at the station, as I was I sorting out my' accommodation, I heard a loud noise 24 from the bay. We ran down to the shore in time to see an enormous animal opposite us throwing 25out of the water and then crashing down again. It was black and white and fish-shaped.

I looked down 33 the water and could see Old Tom swimming by the boat, 34 us the way . A few minutes later, there was no Tom, so George started beating the water with his oar and there was Tom, 35 back to the boat, leading us to the hunt again.Using a telescope we could see that 36 was happening. As we drew closer, I could see a whale being attacked by a 37 of about six other killers."What're they doing?" I asked George."Well, it's teamwork - the killers over there are throwing themselves on top of the whale's blow-hole to stop it breathing. And those others are stopping it 38 or fleeing out to sea," George told me, pointing towards the hunt. And just at that 39 , the most extraordinary thing happened.

Just then and old doctor stepped forward.“Oh, we shall certainly obey your order,” he said, “but it takes time. We have to dig a mineral from the KunLun Mountains when the snowmelts(融化) for the second time. The snow melts on those mountains only once in six years.

新视野大学英语(第二册)十五选十期末复习练习版 (附答案)

The Internet has made English learning much easier. English learners used to be (1) to spend their time in libraries looking for the books that would help them in their language studies. It was very inconvenient because a lot of materials could only be found in (2) and uninteresting textbooks and readers. But today authentic content on a variety of subjects is only a click away. This is especially (3) for those who wants to learn English earnestly.In order to achieve fluency in English, you need to be comfortable using at least 10,000 words. The (4) materials on the Internet make it possible for you to choose appropriate content to read and listen to. These materials can be (5) to your level if you input some key words in the search engine. But how can you remember the (6) of unfamiliar words?In this case, the Internet (7) makes it easier to learn vocabulary. You can use online dictionaries to instantly find out their grammatical (8) and the specific meaning of these words. The Internet helps you to (9) accumulate vocabulary based on lively and interesting language content, which greatly reduces your (10) caused by inability to remember the new words. The efficiency of this vocabulary learning is one of the reasons why the Internet has become an ideal place to learn English.Through exploration of the humanities, we learn how to think creatively and critically, to analyze, and to ask questions. Because these skills allow us to gain new (1) into everything from poetry and paintings to business models and politics, humanistic subjects have been at the heart of a liberal arts (2) since the ancient Greeks first used them to educate their citizens.Research into the human experience helps to (3) our knowledge about our world. Through the work of humanities scholars, we learn about the values of different cultures, about what goes into making a work of art, and about the (4) of how history is made. Their efforts depict the great accomplishments of the past, help us understand the world today, and give us tools to imagine the (5) of our future.Today, humanistic knowledge continues to (6) the ideal foundation for exploring and understanding the human experience. Learning another language might help to (7) you with great insights as well as gain much (8) of different cultures. Taking a close look at a sculpture might make you think about how an artist's life (9) his creative decisions. Reading a book from another region of the world might help you (10) about the meaning of democracy. Listening to history courses might give you a clearer picture of what the future will be like.There is a special life stage that our generation goes through. It is the (1) period, during which we move from teenage to adolescence. We learn who we are and what we stand for and what inspires us. Also, in this period we are (2) with a lot of pressure from our parents who want us to make something out of ourselves.My parents have already expressed feelings of (3) over my future with academics and life. When I expressed to them recently that I would not mind graduating in five years instead of four in order to study abroad to (4) myself with the world, they seemed so shocked. That idea sounded foreign and to them was (5) to lack of ambition.Apart from that, my mother has (6) to me that she is worried that I am not searching for a boyfriend. I (7) this stupid idea of marrying out of college since it does not suit me one bit. Women today can get what they want out of life without a man, even children, as it becomes more(8) for women to adopt children.I personally want to stay in school as long as I can to (9) my academic work, possibly complete a law degree and start a career, and then after, and only after, begin to think about (10) to marriage. If my math is correct, that means I will be more or less "ready" for marriage at the age of 29 or 30, the age when my mother had me.Traditional dating is a self-paced, general meeting of two people. The two usually (1) with spending extra time together, getting to know one another and seeing how (2) they could be to each other. A good example is a man meeting a woman and sensing her (3 . He then extends a formal invitation for a date. With traditional dating, you get to go at a steady pace, (4) yourself and your date to get to know each other through extensive contact.There are many (5) that can be expected from traditional dates. Men, who are supposed to (6) these traditional values, will open the door for the woman, stand up when she leaves the table, pay for everything, and (7) to the next move. In the1950s, a man would usually ask a woman out several days ahead for a specific date and time. If she accepted, they would (8) for a time to pick her up. He would then take her to a dinner and a movie.Today the rules of traditional dating are less clear. Twenty years ago, if a young lady asked a men out on a date, it was thought to be (9) . Now, women are being encouraged to take the initiative and ask men out. A date may consist of a brief meeting at a café or a trip to the (10) art museum. Men often pay on the first date, but the woman may offer to go Dutch. The traditional dating style has been found much less common now.To spend or save is a question which many people have. There is always a(n) (1) whether one should spend the money that he has earned or save that money for the future. Well, there is no (2) answer to the question as different people have different (3) on their life, and that is the reason why some people tend to spend all the money earned while others (4) control over their money.People who spend all the money do not think much about the future. The only thing that they enjoy doing most is to (5) pleasure from spending money. For example, if they like a particular car, mobile phone or laptop, they will buy it without giving it a thought. For them, the most important thing is to satisfy their material (6) . People who have their first job or who haven't married often fall in this category.In the long run, saving is a good (7) for one's life as saving helps an individual to plan for future (8) needs. That is also the reason why many people save money for a rainy day. Individuals who can (9) their spending save money successfully. Instead of buying on impulse, they delay their purchasing decision and won't be easily (10) by commercial ads. Individuals who have responsibility for their family belong to this category.Simplifying is not necessarily about less. It can be about more: more time, more enjoyment, more accomplishment, and more of what (1) you. If you do a lot of things that don't bring you joy or support your long-term plan, then doing less of that kind of things makes sense because you can't (2) everything. The purpose of simplifying is to remove what's not important.To understand what should be (3) , try to think of activities and things as either assets or obligations. An asset is something that is valuable. Some (4) examples are stocks, bonds, buildings, land, gold, etc., but a little more broadly, an asset is anything that can strengthen and (5) you, moving you closer to your goals. However, obligations are debts. An obligation is anything that (6) you, moves you farther from your goals, provides negative stress, creates anxiety, and decreases your health. Then how can you (7) the idea of simplifying? Think about your daily activities and start with just one area. For example, you may begin with(8) by making a long list of your daily activities. Your list may(9) around such routines as paying bills and planning a birthday party for a friend, etc. Do the activities get you closer to your goals? If not, (10) the list. Remove what is unnecessary in order to concentrate more on something important in your life.It's obvious that women have come a long way as successful professionals. Women in the workplace are (1) as an increased number of women have made their presence felt in many industries and professions. The sector of the female workforce has (2) with more and more strength and thus has its (3) importance in the professional world.Whether they like it or not, men have to accept that women are marching up the management ladder confidently and (4) . Women used to be much more "quiet and passive" due to the relatively small number of female employees in (5) to males. Women today, on the other hand, have begun seeking their (6) positions by using all their powers of intelligence. Men are hierarchical and (7) of the "beauty power" that allows women to get certain things based on their physical assets. Even though there is a(n) (8) whether many professional females got into positions of power by using their appearance to their advantage, the (9) fact is the majority of women have worked hard to achieve their desired success. Women were considered as (10) in the workplace for many years and it was believed that the only jobs that they could handle were those of teachers or secretaries, but today's women can not only hold their own positions in the workplace, but they also have the dual task of raising their families.答案Unit1 LCJAI ONEHF Unit2 CHDJB LMGFAThe animal rights movement is a social movement which seeks an end to using animals in the research, food, clothing, and entertainment industries, (1) being called animal liberation. It advocates the idea that the most basic interests of non-human creatures should be (2) the same consideration as those of human beings.Advocates (3) for animal rights from different aspects, ranging from the focus on animal suffering in laboratories to the argument that (4) on not casting animals as properties of human beings. Despite the different approaches, advocates broadly (5) to the opinion that animals should be viewed as non-human members of the moral community and should be (6) from being food, clothing, entertainment, or research subjects. The idea of (7) rights to animals wins the support of several prominent scholars.However, some critics argue that animals are unable to enter into a social contract or moral (8) and for that reason cannot be granted rights. Only humans have duties and, therefore, only humans have rights. There is nothing wrong or (9) about using animals as resources so long as there is no unnecessary suffering. From within the animal rights movement itself, there has also been (10) of certain forms of animal rights activism, in particular the destruction of fur farms and animal laboratories.Unit5 BDOEF CKHNI Unit6 MDHOF LICJA。

Building Solid FoundationsWhen it comes to the construction (建造) of a building, few people would argue about the importance of establishing a strong foundation. It's not different in building a business, a family, or a life.In 2000, we watched the failure of many Internet-based companies. One of the reasons for this is that these companies were built without solid foundations. A company needs more than just money and material to satisfy its basic needs; it also requires a firm base from which to build.The emphasis (重点) today is on instant satisfaction. But if we want to build something of value, something that will last, we must build a foundation that will support our goal. It takes effort and it takes conviction, but the rewards are worth it.Keep Your Eyes on What You're BuildingThere was once a man passing by a construction site. He stopped and asked one of the tradesmen what he was doing. The worker replied simply, "I'm laying bricks(砖), can't you see that?" The man watched a while longer and then asked another worker what he was doing. "I'm just earning a living," he replied. A third time the man asked a worker and the response was much different, "I'm building a beautiful church."No doubt the personal happiness and the quality of the work from the last man was much better than from the first two.And what about us? Are we just collecting a pay check, doing hard dull work — laying bricks? Or are we building churches?By staying focused on what we're building and seeing the task at hand as accomplishing that purpose, we'll gain greater satisfaction, our work will be lighter, and we'll create more excellence.Foundations Take TimeI recently watched a building being built. (I must admit I was tempted to ask some of the workers what they were doing.) For months, there seemed to be little progress. There was plenty of dust, lots of activity, but very few signs that anything was really happening.That's because they were building the foundation—the foundation to support a great structure. And that takes time.The engineers, the head builders, and the owner certainly weren't standing around saying, "Where's the building? Why can't I seemore progress?" They knew that a majority of the time to construct the building would be spent in laying the groundwork.Once the foundation is ready, the rest of the construction happens at fast speed. Even mistakes made in the superstructure (上层建筑) can be corrected without too much difficulty. But faults in the foundation CANNOT be easily repaired and will threaten the entire structure.And why should what we build be any different? We need to put strong foundations under our dreams, our businesses, and our relationships. I believe that this is where many people struggle. They're too focused on the rewards and don't give enough attention to the hard work and careful planning required in building the substructure (基础建筑). They want to start putting up walls and bringing in the business too soon. And in the end, most fail because there is not the right support.A strong foundation, built with good materials and a great deal of effort, will make your structure one that stands up to all attacks and fully supports your efforts.547 words)1.In creating something, it's important to ________________.A. have a strong foundationB. have the support of familyC. have few people to argueD. have a firm construction2.Many internet companies failed, because people thought________________.A. failing was impossibleB. having money and material was enoughC. satisfying themselves was basicD. having a firm base came first3.Our focus today is on ________________.A. supportive foundationsB. instant convictionC. immediate satisfactionD. worthwhile rewards4.Which of the men had personal happiness?________________A.

Although Beethoven could sit down and compose easily, his really great compositions did not come easily at all. They cost him a great deal of hard work and he always found it hard to satisfy himself.When he was 28, he began to notice a strange noise in his ears. As it grew worse, he went to see doctors, and was told that he was going deaf. This was too much for any composer to bear. Beethoven was without hope; he was sure that he was going to die. He went to the countryside where he wrote a long good-bye letter to his brothers, describing how sad and lonely his deafnessmade him. He longed to die, and said to death, "Come when you will; I shall meet you bravely."In fact, Beethoven did something braver than dying. He gathered his courage and went on writing music, though he could hear what he wrote more and more faintly. He wrote the music for which we remember him best after he became deaf. This music was very different from any that had been composed before. Instead of the artistic and beautiful music that earlier composers had written for their rich listeners, Beethoven wrote stormy, exciting music which reminds us of his troubled and courageous (勇敢的) life.

Culture shock might be called an expected disease of people who have suddenly moved to some foreign countries. Like most diseases, it has its own symptoms and cure.Culture shock is started by the anxiety that results from losing all our familiar signs and sights of social activities. Those signs or cues (提示) include the thousand and one ways in which we find our place in the situation of daily life: when to shake hands and what to say when we meet people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and when to refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These cues, which may be words, gestures, expressions with the face, customs, or norms, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and are as much a part of our culture as the languagewe speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend for our peace of mind and our efficiency on hundreds of these cues, most of which we do not carry on the level of conscious awareness.Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are removed. He or she is like a fish out of water. No matter how broad-minded or full of goodwill you may be, a number of supports have been knocked out from under you followed by a feeling of frustration and anxiety. People respond to the frustration in much the same way. First they reject the environment which causes the discomfort. "The ways of the host country are bad because they make me feel bad." When foreigners in a strange land get together to complain about the host country and its people, you can be sure they are suffering from culture shock. Another stage of culture shock is regression. The home country suddenly assumes a great importance. To the foreigner everything becomes much greater than it really is. All the difficulties and problems are forgotten and only the good things back home are remembered. It usually takes a trip home to bring one back to reality.6.According to the passage, culture shock is_________________.A. an expected disease of foreign peopleB. may lead to very serious symptomsC. actually not a diseaseD. something that can't be changed7.According to the passage, culture shock results from________________.A. the sudden loss of our own signs and sights of socialactivitiesB. the sudden change of our daily habitsC. the sudden change of the social situation and customsD. the discomfort that we feel when faced with a foreigner8.Which one of the following may NOT be the symptoms ofculture shock?A. You don't know how to express your thanks.B. You don't know how to greet other people.C. You suddenly forget what a word means.D. You don't understand why a foreigner acts in a certainway.9.How would a person who stays abroad most probably actwhen he is frustrated by the culture shock according to thepassage?A. He is most likely to refuse to absorb the strangeenvironment at first.B. He may begin to hate the people or things around him.C. He is ready to accept the change and change himself tothe new environment.D. Although he takes the cultural differences to be regular, hestill doesn't know what to do with them.10.This passage is most likely taken from ______________.A. a news reportB. a grammar bookC. a book on medicine and psychologyD. an essay on human customs答案图例：Right Wrong To be marked by instructorPart 1 Vocabulary and Structure (每小题: 1 分; 满分：15 分)(In the case of True/False type of questions, A stands for True and B for False, or A for Y, B for N and C for NG.)小题得分对错学生答案Correct1. 1 D D2. 1 B BCABBCDABCADCAentirely convention significance principles customsexist absolute assessthose practice increasingly consciousness used to be difference individual's communities weightSometurnconductingABCDABCthe entire structure careful planning support your effectsacuteinclined competentemailenhanceinsistprobe contemporary sparecapitalD A B C D A A C B D。

She is recalling old times as she waits for her family's arrival. The nursing home has been Melinda's new settlement ever since Thomas passed away a week ago. Thomas had fought a long and hard battle against lung cancer for three years. Unfortunately, he has broken the promise that he and Melinda had made: to be with each other for every birthday. Melinda knew this was unrealistic but agreed to the promise for Thomas’s sake.“Thomas, you are completely a dreamer!” Melinda shouted to Thomas as h e dragged on about living on an island with his beautiful wife. That s what she loved about him most—he had a vivid imagination. They got married at age eighteen and began having children right away. Mary came within the year，followed by Thomas Benjamin II, Lilly-Ann, and Joseph “Little Joey' George. The family lived an exultant life filled with laughter and love.“Mom!” Lilly shouted, but it really sounded like a howl. Melinda had lost herself in thinking about the life she had shared with her late husband. Lilly pushed her down the long dark halls of the nursing home until they arrived at the recreational room.When the doors opened, Melinda put her hand over her mouth and was completely speechless. The room was crowded with the people nearest and dearest to her and the warmth and love was felt instantly. The night went on; stories and cocktails were shared and everything was perfect. However, when Melinda caught a moment to herself she looked around at her family. With a smi le on her face, she raised her Manhattan and called out for a toast. “This one is for you, Thomas，though you are not here.”36. Why did Thomas break his promise?A. He was busy with his work.B. He died of lung cancer.C. He had to serve in the army.D. He stopped loving Melinda.37. Which of the following best explains “exultant” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Peaceful.B. Simple.C. Stressful.D. Happy.38. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Melinda，children forgot their father.B. Melinda was tired of noise.C. Melinda missed her husband badly.D. Melinda liked to drink alcohol,39. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. A Particular BirthdayB. A Woman at a Nursing HomeC. Memories of Old DaysD. A Big Surprise for MelindaPassage BSpotify can tell if you’re sad. Here’s why that should scare you. Want to figure out if someone is a patient with a mental disability? Ask them what their favorite song is. A New York University study last year found that people who loved Eminem's Lose Yourself and Justin Bieber's What Do You Mean? were more likely to have trouble with mental disabilities than people who were into Dire Straits.Over the past few years，Spotify has been improving the ability to analyze information to help businessmen target consumers with advertisements made specially for their needs. They conclude this from the sort of music you’re listening to, combined with where and when you’re listening to it, along with third-party data that might be available.Now, to be clear, there’s nothing significantly illegal about what Spotify is doing with your information. I certainly don't think that they are working with shadowy consulting firms to serve you ads selling a culture struggle while you're listening to music that suggests you might be in a terrible situation. However, I find it disappointing that our personal, private moments with music are increasingly being turned into information points and offered to advertisers.You can see where this could go，can’t you? As ad targeting gets ever more accurate, businessmen will have the ability to target our feelings in potentially improper ways. According to one study, you are more likely to spend more on a product if you’re feeling sad. You can imagine some companies might take advantage of that. And on that note，I’m feeling a littledown about all this. Head off to treat myself to something expensive.40. What's the purpose of the first paragraph?A. To introduce a new song.B. To draw readers’ attention.C. To help more patients.D. To promote a new medium.41. Spotify improves its ability to analyze information to______.A. provide services for the governmentB. work with shadowy consulting firmsC. get listeners' personal informationD. help businessmen attract consumers42. What s th e author’s attitude towards Spo tify?A. Uncertain.B. Supportive.C. Positive.D. Dissatisfied.43. Who is the text probably designed for?A. Internet users.B. Officials.C. Researchers.D. Managers.Passage CAn exciting landing process of Chang'e-4 lunar probe (月球探测器）was seen through the monitor at Beijing Aerospace Control Center in Beijing，Jan. 3, 2019. It touched down on the far side of the moon at 10:26 a.m. Beijing Time, becoming the first spacecraft soft-landing on the moon’s unknown side nev er visible from Earth.China’s Chang'e-4 probe has started the exploration on the far side of the moon thanks to the relay satellite that provides a communication link with ground control. The relay satellite, named Queqiao, meaning Magpie Bridge, after a Chinese legend, was launched on May 21,2018，and became the first communication satellite operating in the halo orbit, nearly 500,000 km from the earth. It can also provide communication for probes from other countries. The relay satellite will also be used for scientific and technological experiments. The maximum distance between the satellite and the Chang'e-4 probe on the far side of the moon is 79,000 km. The satellite processes data from the probe and sends it to Earth.The satellite can stay in its orbit for a long time due to its relatively low fuel consumption, as the earth’s and moon's gravity balances its orbital moving. While in orbit, it can “see” both the earth and the far side of the moon.The concept of using a relay satellite in the halo orbit was first put forward by U.S. space expertsin the 1960s, but was realized by Chinese space engineers.Researchers hope to use the cameras on the satellite to record asteroids (小行星）hitting the far side of the moon. To control the cost of the Chang'c-4 probe, the relay satellite was designed to be relatively small, weighing about 400 kg.Researchers had just 30 months to develop the satellite, putting them under high pressure. To promote public interest in space exploration, the China National Space Administration invited people to write down their wishes for lunar and space exploration, and the relay satellite carries the names of tens of thousands of participants and their messages.44. What do we learn from the second paragraph?A. The relay satellite was launched on Jan. 3, 2019.B.Chang'e-4 probe was the first communication satellite.C. The relay satellite only explores the far side of the moon.D. The relay satellite can handle data from Chang'e-4 probe.45. Why was the size of the relay satellite relatively small?A. To reduce the cost as much as possible.B. To make it circle Moon for a longer time.C. To avoid being crashed by other satellites.D. To follow American space experts，advice.46. What made researchers suffer from great stress?A. Few people interested in the exploration on the moon.B. The relay satellite carrying too much equipment.C. Their lacking enough time to develop the relay satellite.D. People’s never being optimistic about the relay satellite47. What is the main idea of the text?A. China is a new space power after the USA.B.Change-4 probe lands on Moon’s far side.C. Chinese space engineers make much progress.D. Space exploration is a dangerous challenge.Passage DLast year marked the 100th anniversary of the end of World War I. There were events around theworld in memory of those who died in the conflict. We have picked out three of them in European countries. Let's take a look.BelgiumIn a park, the famous Belgian artist Koen Vanmechelen had an exhibition called Coming World, Remember Me. The work consisted of 600,000 individual(单独的）clay sculptures, one for exhibition was a big egg made of clay each person killed during the World War. In the center of the exhibition was a big egg made of clay, symbolizing a new world.UKIn a small town called Aldridge. almost 100 houses in one street were covered with 24,000poppies and statues of sold.They stood for the men from the area who had been killed in the war. The flowers were chosen because of a poem written by the Canadian doctor John McCrea in1915. They made people think of fields of blood.FranceThe British artist Guy Denning arrived in La Feuille，a small town in the northwest of France, to stick life-size drawings of soldiers who never came back home. Armed with glue and a brush, Denning stuck his drawings carefully on walls. Before long 112 men, ma.nly young adults, were brought back to mind, if not to life.48. What do we know about Coming World. Remember Me?A. It's the name of an exhibition.B. It's a film about World War I.C. It's a work standing for peace.D. It's a sculpture made of clay.49. Why were poppies chosen to symbolize the dead soldiers?A. The British people preferred them.B. They showed the cruelty of war.C. A Canadian doctor suggested them.D. The fields were filled with them.50. How was the end of World War I marked in France?A. A memorial to the dead soldiers was built.B. 112 wounded soldiers in the war were helped.C. Drawings of some dead soldiers were put up.D. Young adults were encouraged to join the army.Part IV Skimming and Scanning (10%)Technology in education: Current trendsA)Computers and Internet connections are becoming widely available in schools and classrooms. In 1999, 99 percent of teachers in the United States had access to a computer in their schools, and 84 percent had one or more computers in their classrooms. At the same time, Internet connections were also widespread, with 95 percent of schools and 63 percent of classrooms having access. Worldwide, many countries are making the creation and diffusion of information and communications technology (ICT) an important priority.The use of technology to find educational resourcesB) In the past, teachers attempting a problem-based curriculum felt the need to limit problems to those for which they had expertise or the local library had resources. Now the World Wide Web brings a seemingly endless amount of information on almost any subject, and it is possible for students to choose topics based on personal interest rather than availability of resources.C) Internet research projects are gaining popularity. In the spring of 1998, 30 percent of teachers surveyed (and 70 percent of those with high-speed Internet connections) reported they had assigned Internet research tasks to their students during the school year. Use of the Internet to gather information for solving problems sometimes resembles a modern version of library research, in which students gather and synthesize information from published reports. Despite the fact that the task seems traditional, the characteristics of this new medium require special skills for students. The sheer volume of information allows students to study almost any topic, but also makes it more difficult to locate precisely the right information from among the thousands, or even millions, of sites. In addition, the ease of publishing materials on the Internet increases the likelihood that students will encounter inaccurate or biased information. As a result, students must learn new strategies for conducting searches and evaluating the information thatthey retrieve.D) Students carrying out scientific investigations can use the Internet to make observations and collect data. For example, the fourth and fifth graders in California collected insects and sent them to San Diego State University. Using two-way audio and video connecting the school and the university, scientists guided the students in using an electron microscope to examine their specimens. Technology has made it possible to collect data from places students could never visit. In recent projects, high school students explored the floor of the Monterey Bay by studying the video from remotely operated robots, and middle school students were given time to use the Hubble telescope. Students also use technology to collect data in their schools and communities. For example, using handheld computers outfitted with various types of probes （探测仪），students can monitor the water quality at various locations in nearby streams or lakes. By transmitting their individual readings to a laptop computer in a field laboratory they can quickly graph their data and visually compare readings.The use of technology to summarize and present findingsE) In the past, students memorized and used formulas and models created by others to solve problems. Students often used these formulas, especially in the early stages of learning, with little understanding. In the early 21st century computer tools provide the opportunity for students to construct and test their own models using tools such as spreadsheets （电子制表软件）or concept maps （概念图）. This type of instruction deepens students' understanding of abstract concepts and allows these concepts to be taught at an earlier age.F) Once students have summarized their data and other information, they typically communicate their findings to others. Writing reports is still the most widespread use of ICT, with 61 percent of US teachers assigning students word-processing tasks. In addition to text, students also use computer-created graphics, videos, and animations to communicate their ideas.G) The teacher is not the only audience for students' presentations. Students frequently expect to present their work to and receive feedback from their peers and the world outside their classroom. Whether they are using presentation software to accompany a face-to也cepresentation or developing materials to put on the Web, the trend is for students to be able to communicate their work to a broad audience. This increases students' perception that problem-based learning is real work for real audiences.The use of technology for collaboration and distance educationH) There are many opportunities for individual students to use technology to enhance their learning. These include online courses that provide students in remote locations with opportunities for customized curriculum and advanced placement courses （先修课程）. These courses are conducted entirely online and offer asynchronous （异步的）interaction among faculty and students. Because they allow students to participate anytime and from anywhere, online courses are becoming increasingly popular among postsecondary （高等教育）students whose job and personal commitments do not allow them to meet a regular class schedule.I) Opportunities for interaction with peers from other countries can also contribute to knowledge and understanding of other cultures. ICT makes this type of communication possible for anyone with Internet access. For example, the Kidlink project encourages students up to age 15 to use the Internet to build a global network of friends. Kidlink participants discuss issues ranging from how to make and keep friends to war and peace.J) Monitoring students' independent learning in these flexible environments will be supported by sophisticated new assessment technologies that will help teachers collect and analyze students' data and make instructional decisions. These tools will continually assess students' work and provide feedback to them and their teachers. Such assessment has the potential to make time-consuming standardized testing unnecessary and to personalize the curriculum for every student. Ubiquitous，well-integrated technology tools will bring educators closer to redefine the educational enterprise and provide customized, just-in-time solutions for the learning needs of students.____1 Students find it more difficult to locate the right information from among a large number of websites.____2 Teachers will use sophisticated new technologies to assess students' learning in flexible environments and make instructional decisions.____3 Collecting information from the Internet is similar to that in the library as students obtain published reports and process the information in both cases.____4 While teachers had to limit problems to those with resources in the process of teaching in the past, students nowadays can make their own interest-based choices because of a large amount of information available on many subjects.____5 Students of higher education prefer online courses to those given at fixed time and in fixed places due to their other businesses.____6 The Kidlink project encourages students up to 15 to make foreign friends and have discussions about a wide range of issues on the Internet.____7 Many countries around the world prioritize the creation and spread of ICT.____8 By means of two-way audio and video, scientists in San Diego State University instructed the fourth- and fifth-grade students in California to observe specimens with electronic devices. ____9 Face-to-face presentations accompanied by software indicate the trend that students can communicate their work with more people.____10 Because of computer tools, abstract concepts can be better understood by students and be taught at an earlier age.Part V Translation (10%)1. 孔子的许多思想，尤其是教育思想，对中国社会产生了深远的影响。

Melinda had lost herself in thinking about the life she had shared with her late husband.Lilly pushed her down the long dark halls of the nursing home until they arrived at the recreational room.When the doors opened,Melinda put her hand over her mouth and was completely speechless.The room was crowded with the people nearest and dearest to her and the warmth and love was feltinstantly.The night went on;stories and cocktails were shared and everything was perfect.However,when Melinda caught a moment to herself she looked around at her family.With a smi le on her face,she raised her Manhattan and called out for a toast.“This one is for you,Thomas，though you are not here.”36.Why did Thomas break his promise?A.He was busy with his work.B.He died of lung cancer.C.He had to serve in the army.D.He stopped loving Melinda.37.Which of the following best explains“exultant”underlined in Paragraph2?A.Peaceful.B.Simple.C.Stressful.D.Happy.38.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.Melinda，children forgot their father.B.Melinda was tired of noise.C.Melinda missed her husband badly.D.Melinda liked to drink alcohol,39.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.A Particular BirthdayB.A Woman at a Nursing HomeC.Memories of Old DaysD.A Big Surprise for MelindaPassage BSpotify can tell if you’re sad.Here’s why that should scare you.Want to figure out if someone is a patient with a mental disability?Ask them what their favorite song is.A New York University study last year found that people who loved Eminem's Lose Yourself and Justin Bieber's What Do You Mean?were more likely to have trouble with mental disabilities than people who were into Dire Straits.Over the past few years，Spotify has been improving the ability to analyze information to help businessmen target consumers with advertisements made specially for their needs.They conclude this from the sort of music you’re listening to, combined with where and when you’re listening to it,along with third-party data that might be available.Now,to be clear,there’s nothing significantly illegal about what Spotify is doing with your information.I certainly don't think that they are working with shadowy consulting firms to serve you ads selling a culture struggle while you're listening to music that suggests you might be in a terrible situation. However,I find it disappointing that our personal,privatemoments with music are increasingly being turned into information points and offered to advertisers.You can see where this could go，can’t you?As ad targeting gets ever more accurate,businessmen will have the ability to target our feelings in potentially improper ways.According to one study,you are more likely to spend more on a product if you’re feeling sad.You can imagine some companies might take advantage of that.And on that note，I’m feeling a littledown about all this.Head off to treat myself to something expensive.40.What's the purpose of the first paragraph?A.To introduce a new song.B.To draw readers’attention.C.To help more patients.D.To promote a new medium.41.Spotify improves its ability to analyze information to______.A.provide services for the governmentB.work with shadowy consulting firmsC.get listeners'personal informationD.help businessmen attract consumers42.What s th e author’s attitude towards Spo tify?A.Uncertain.B.Supportive.C.Positive.D.Dissatisfied.43.Who is the text probably designed for?A.Internet users.B.Officials.C.Researchers.D.Managers.Passage CAn exciting landing process of Chang'e-4lunar probe(月球探测器）was seen through the monitor at Beijing Aerospace Control Center in Beijing，Jan.3,2019.It touched down on the far side of the moon at10:26 a.m.Beijing Time,becoming the first spacecraft soft-landing on the moon’s unknown side nev er visible from Earth.China’s Chang'e-4probe has started the exploration on the far side of the moon thanks to the relay satellite that provides a communication link with ground control.The relay satellite, named Queqiao,meaning Magpie Bridge,after a Chinese legend, was launched on May21,2018，and became the first communication satellite operating in the halo orbit,nearly500,000km from the earth.It can also provide communication for probes fromother countries.The relay satellite will also be used for scientific and technological experiments.The maximum distance between the satellite and the Chang'e-4probe on the far side of the moon is79,000km.The satellite processes data from the probe and sends it to Earth.The satellite can stay in its orbit for a long time due to its relatively low fuel consumption,as the earth’s and moon's gravity balances its orbital moving.While in orbit,it can“see”both the earth and the far side of the moon.The concept of using a relay satellite in the halo orbit was first put forward by U.S.space expertsin the1960s,but was realized by Chinese space engineers.Researchers hope to use the cameras on the satellite to record asteroids(小行星）hitting the far side of the moon.To control the cost of the Chang'c-4probe,the relay satellite was designed to be relatively small,weighing about400kg.Researchers had just30months to develop the satellite,putting them under high pressure.To promote public interest in spaceexploration,the China National Space Administration invited people to write down their wishes for lunar and space exploration,and the relay satellite carries the names of tens of thousands of participants and their messages.44.What do we learn from the second paragraph?A.The relay satellite was launched on Jan.3,2019.B.Chang'e-4probe was the first communication satellite.C.The relay satellite only explores the far side of the moon.D.The relay satellite can handle data from Chang'e-4probe.45.Why was the size of the relay satellite relatively small?A.To reduce the cost as much as possible.B.To make it circle Moon for a longer time.C.To avoid being crashed by other satellites.D.To follow American space experts，advice.46.What made researchers suffer from great stress?A.Few people interested in the exploration on the moon.B.The relay satellite carrying too much equipment.C.Their lacking enough time to develop the relay satellite.D.People’s never being optimistic about the relay satellite47.What is the main idea of the text?A.China is a new space power after the USA.B.Change-4probe lands on Moon’s far side.C.Chinese space engineers make much progress.D.Space exploration is a dangerous challenge.Passage DLast year marked the100th anniversary of the end of World War I.There were events around theworld in memory of those who died in the conflict.We have picked out three of them in European countries.Let's take a look.BelgiumIn a park,the famous Belgian artist Koen Vanmechelen had an exhibition called Coming World,Remember Me.The work consisted of600,000individual(单独的）clay sculptures,one for exhibition was a big egg made of clay each person killed during the World War.In the center of the exhibition was a big egg made of clay,symbolizing a new world.UKIn a small town called Aldridge.almost100houses in one street were covered with24,000poppies and statues of sold.They stood for the men from the area who had been killed in the war.The flowers were chosen because of a poem written by the Canadian doctor John McCrea in1915.They made people think offields of blood.FranceThe British artist Guy Denning arrived in La Feuille，a small town in the northwest of France,to stick life-size drawings of soldiers who never came back home.Armed with glue and a brush, Denning stuck his drawings carefully on walls.Before long112 men,ma.nly young adults,were brought back to mind,if not to life.48.What do we know about Coming World.Remember Me?A.It's the name of an exhibition.B.It's a film about World War I.C.It's a work standing for peace.D.It's a sculpture made of clay.49.Why were poppies chosen to symbolize the dead soldiers?A.The British people preferred them.B.They showed the cruelty of war.C.A Canadian doctor suggested them.D.The fields were filled with them.50.How was the end of World War I marked in France?A.A memorial to the dead soldiers was built.B.112wounded soldiers in the war were helped.C.Drawings of some dead soldiers were put up.D.Young adults were encouraged to join the army.Part IV Skimming and Scanning(10%)Technology in education:Current trendsA)Computers and Internet connections are becoming widelyavailable in schools and classrooms.In1999,99percent of teachers in the United States had access to a computer in their schools,and84percent had one or more computers in their classrooms.At the same time,Internet connections were also widespread,with95percent of schools and63percent of classrooms having access.Worldwide,many countries are making the creation and diffusion of information and communications technology(ICT)an important priority.The use of technology to find educational resourcesB)In the past,teachers attempting a problem-based curriculum felt the need to limit problems to those for which they had expertise or the local library had resources.Now the World Wide Web brings a seemingly endless amount of information on almost any subject,and it is possible for students to choose topics based on personal interest rather than availability of resources.C)Internet research projects are gaining popularity.In the spring of1998,30percent of teachers surveyed(and70percent of those with high-speed Internet connections)reported they had assigned Internet research tasks to their students duringthe school e of the Internet to gather information for solving problems sometimes resembles a modern version of library research,in which students gather and synthesize information from published reports.Despite the fact that the task seems traditional,the characteristics of this new medium require special skills for students.The sheer volume of information allows students to study almost any topic,but also makes it more difficult to locate precisely the right information from among the thousands,or even millions,of sites. In addition,the ease of publishing materials on the Internet increases the likelihood that students will encounter inaccurate or biased information.As a result,students must learn new strategies for conducting searches and evaluating the information thatthey retrieve.D)Students carrying out scientific investigations can use the Internet to make observations and collect data.For example, the fourth and fifth graders in California collected insects and sent them to San Diego State ing two-way audio and video connecting the school and the university,scientists guided the students in using an electron microscope to examinetheir specimens.Technology has made it possible to collect data from places students could never visit.In recent projects,high school students explored the floor of the Monterey Bay by studying the video from remotely operated robots,and middle school students were given time to use the Hubble telescope. Students also use technology to collect data in their schools and communities.For example,using handheld computers outfitted with various types of probes（探测仪），students can monitor the water quality at various locations in nearby streams or lakes.By transmitting their individual readings to a laptop computer in a field laboratory they can quickly graph their data and visually compare readings.The use of technology to summarize and present findingsE)In the past,students memorized and used formulas and models created by others to solve problems.Students often used these formulas,especially in the early stages of learning,with little understanding.In the early21st century computer tools provide the opportunity for students to construct and test their own models using tools such as spreadsheets（电子制表软件）or concept maps（概念图）.This type of instruction deepens students'understanding of abstract concepts and allows theseconcepts to be taught at an earlier age.F)Once students have summarized their data and other information,they typically communicate their findings to others.Writing reports is still the most widespread use of ICT, with61percent of US teachers assigning students word-processing tasks.In addition to text,students also use computer-created graphics,videos,and animations to communicate their ideas.G)The teacher is not the only audience for students' presentations.Students frequently expect to present their work to and receive feedback from their peers and the world outside their classroom.Whether they are using presentation software to accompany a face-to也cepresentation or developing materials to put on the Web,the trend is for students to be able to communicate their work to a broad audience.This increases students'perception that problem-based learning is real work for real audiences.The use of technology for collaboration and distance educationH)There are many opportunities for individual students to use technology to enhance their learning.These include online courses that provide students in remote locations with opportunities for customized curriculum and advanced placement courses（先修课程）.These courses are conducted entirely online and offer asynchronous（异步的）interaction among faculty and students.Because they allow students to participate anytime and from anywhere,online courses are becoming increasingly popular among postsecondary（高等教育）students whose job and personal commitments do not allow them to meet a regular class schedule.I)Opportunities for interaction with peers from other countries can also contribute to knowledge and understanding of other cultures.ICT makes this type of communication possible for anyone with Internet access.For example,the Kidlink project encourages students up to age15to use the Internet to build a global network of friends.Kidlink participants discuss issues ranging from how to make and keep friends to war and peace.J)Monitoring students'independent learning in these flexible environments will be supported by sophisticated new assessmenttechnologies that will help teachers collect and analyze students'data and make instructional decisions.These tools will continually assess students'work and provide feedback to them and their teachers.Such assessment has the potential to make time-consuming standardized testing unnecessary and to personalize the curriculum for every student.Ubiquitous，well-integrated technology tools will bring educators closer to redefine the educational enterprise and provide customized, just-in-time solutions for the learning needs of students. ____1Students find it more difficult to locate the right information from among a large number of websites.____2Teachers will use sophisticated new technologies to assess students'learning in flexible environments and make instructional decisions.____3Collecting information from the Internet is similar to that in the library as students obtain published reports and process the information in both cases.____4While teachers had to limit problems to those with resources in the process of teaching in the past,students nowadays can make their own interest-based choices because ofa large amount of information available on many subjects.____5Students of higher education prefer online courses to those given at fixed time and in fixed places due to their other businesses.____6The Kidlink project encourages students up to15to make foreign friends and have discussions about a wide range of issues on the Internet.____7Many countries around the world prioritize the creation and spread of ICT.____8By means of two-way audio and video,scientists in San Diego State University instructed the fourth-and fifth-grade students in California to observe specimens with electronic devices.____9Face-to-face presentations accompanied by software indicate the trend that students can communicate their work with more people.____10Because of computer tools,abstract concepts can be better understood by students and be taught at an earlier age.Part V Translation(10%)1.孔子的许多思想，尤其是教育思想，对中国社会产生了深远的影响。

For each of the questions there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best answer and write down the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage 1As prices and building costs keep rising, the …do-it-yourself‟ (DIY) trend in the U.S. continues to grow.“We needed furniture for our living room,” says John Ross, “and we just didn't have enough money to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs.”John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Roses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. “I was deeply upset about it. Now I've finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself.”John and Jim are not unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a “do-it-yourselfer”, you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don't have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself. 1. We can learn from the text that many newly married people _____ .A. find it hard to pay for what they needB. have to learn to make their own furnitureC. take DIY courses run by the governmentD. seldom go to a department store to buy things2. John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to _____ .A. run a DIY shopB. make or repair thingsC. save time and moneyD. improve the quality of life3. When the writer says that Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim______ .A. makes shoes in his homeB. does extra work at nightC. does his own car and home repairD. keeps house and looks after his children4. Jim Hatfield decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when .A. his car repairs cost too muchB. the car repair class was not helpfulC. he could not possible do two jobsD. he had to raise the children all by himself5. What would be the best title for the text?A. The Joy of DIYB. You Can Do It Too!C. Welcome to Our DIY Course!D. Ross and Hatfield: Believes in DIYPassage 2Today, roller skating is easy and fun. But a long time ago, it wasn't easy at all. Before 1750, the idea of skating didn't exist. That changed because of a man named Joseph Merlin. Merlin's work was making musical instruments. In his spare time he liked to play the violin. Joseph Merlin was a man of ideas and dreams. People called him a dreamer.One day Merlin received an invitation to attend a fancy dress ball(化装舞会). He was very pleased and a little excited. As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party. He had an idea. He thought he would get a lot of attention if he could skate into the room.Merlin tried different ways to make himself roll. Finally, he decided toput two wheels under each shoe. These were the first roller skates. Merlin was very proud of his invention and dreamed of arriving at the party on wheels while playing the violin.On the night of the party Merlin rolled into the room playing his violin. Everyone was astonished to see him. There was just one problem. Merlin had no way to stop his roller skates. He rolled on and on. Suddenly, he ran into a huge mirror that was hanging on the wall. Down fell the mirror, breaking to pieces. Nobody forget Merlin's grand entrance for a long time!6. The text is mainly about _____.A. a strange manB. an unusual partyC. how roller skating beganD. how people enjoyed themselves in the 18th century7. People thought Merlin was a dreamer because he _____.A. often gave others surpriseB. was a gifted musicianC. invented the roller skateD. was full of imagination8. “As the day of the party came near, Merlin began to think how to make a grand entrance at the party.”What does the underlined word mean in the passage?A. bigB. importantC. excellentD. splendid9. Merlin put wheels under his shoes in order to .A. impress the party guestsB. arrive at the party soonerC. test his inventionD. show his skill in walking on wheels10. What is the main point the writer is trying to make in the last paragraph?A. the roller skates needed further improvement.B. the party guests took Merlin for a fool.C. Merlin succeeds beyond expectation.D. Merlin got himself into trouble.Passage 3To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun.Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C..We know that the umbrella was also used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East, in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellas as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in 16th century. And again it became a symbol of power and authority.Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn‟t until the twentieth century that women‟s umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.11. The first use of umbrella was as_____.A. protection against rainB. a shade against the sunC. a symbol of powerD. a symbol of honor12._____were regarded as the people who first used umbrellas.A. RomansB. GreeksC. ChineseD. Europeans13. The umbrella was used only by royal people or those in highoffice______.A. in European in the eighteenth centuryB. in ancient Egypt and BabylonC. in the Far East in ancient timesD. during the Middle Ages14. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Women enjoy using umbrella with varies kinds of colorsB. The inventor of the umbrella is unknownC. Once ordinary people had no right to use umbrellasD. Umbrellas were popular and cheap in the ancient times15. Which of the following may be the best title for the passage?A. When Was the Umbrella InventedB. The Role of Umbrella in HistoryC. The Colors and Shapes of UmbrellaD. Who Needed Umbrella FirstPart VI Translation﹙10’﹚Section A﹙5x1’=5’﹚Directions: Complete the following sentences by translating the Chinese into English.1. （尽管天气很差），they decided to go climbing this weekend.2. It was an exciting game （即使没有进球）.3. I don't like （他教英语的方式）.4. （不想在那看到John）, she refused to attend the party5. He is going to buy the factory, （即使他们提价）. Section B ﹙5’﹚Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese.Be yourself. Many how-to books advise you to stride into a room and impress others with your qualities. They instruct you to greet them with “power handshakes” and tell you to fix your eyes on the other person. If you follow all this advice, you'll drive everyone crazy—including yourself. The trick is to be consistently you, at your best. The most effective people never change from one situation to another.内蒙古民族大学学生考试试卷2012 —2013 学年度第二学期专业班级：11级日、俄语专业日、俄语班课程：新视野（1）试卷编号：BANSWER SHEET08级第二外语（英）答题卡Part I Vocabulary﹙20x1’=20’﹚Section A ﹙10 x 1’=10’﹚1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. 7. 8. 9. 10.Section B ﹙10 x 1’=10’﹚1. 2. 3.4. 5. 6.7. 8. 9.10._________________Part II Blank filling (10 x 1’=10’)1. 2. 3. 4. 5.6. __7. __8. ___9. _ 10. ____ Part III Sentence rewriting (5 x 2’=10’)1.2. 3.4.5.Part IV Cloze ( 20 x 1’=20’ )1._______2._________3._________4.__________5.________6._______7._________8._________9.__________10________11.______12.________13.________14._________15.________16.______17.________18.________19._________20.________Part V Reading comprehension ( 15x2’=30’ )1._______2._________3._________4.__________5.________6._______7._________8._________9.__________10________11.______12.________13.________14._________15.________Part VI Translation﹙10’﹚Section A﹙5x1’=5’﹚1.2.3.4.5.Section B ﹙5’﹚_______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________11级日、俄语专业新视野（1）B答案I.Section A:range match contact acquire threatenedboast immune employment contrary dumpSection Bdistracts…from guard against at risk in place of sign up fortakes…seriously at her best Lighten up made up one‟s mind focus onII.as upon/on up by in to with of At withIII.1.I will never forget the city where Mary and I spent our childhood.2.So does she.3.It rained for two weeks on end, completely flooding the village.4.He had his ears pierced even though I told him not to.5.No/Neither can Ann.IV.CCBAC BCACC BBACA BCAABV.ABDAB CDDAC BCCDCVI.Section A1.Despite the bad weather2.even though no goals were scored3.the way he teaches English4.Not wanting to see/meet John there5.even if they raise the priceSection B很多指导性的书籍会建议你大步走进一个房间，用你的优点给别人留下深刻印象。
