大学英语(三)-2习题及答案

大学英语(三)-2习题及答案一、阅读理解April Fool’s Day is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fool’s errands(差事), and fool the unsuspecting. No one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in France.The closest point in time that can be identified as the beginning of thistradition was in 1582, in France. New Year was celebrated on March 25 and celebrations lasted until April 1st. When New Year’s Day as changed from March 25 to January 1st in the mid-1560’s by King Charles IX, there were some people who still celebrated it on April 1st and those peoplewere called April Fools.Tricks performed on April Fool’s Day range from the simple to th eelaborate. Setting a roommate’s alarm clock back an hour is common. The news media even gets involved. For instance, a British short film onceshown on April Fool’s Day was a fairly detailed documentary about“spaghetti farmers” and how they harvest thei r crop from the spaghettitrees. Whatever the prank, the trickster usually ends it by yelling to hisvictim, “April Fool!” April Fool’s Day is a “for-fun-only” observance. Nobody is expected to buy gifts or to take their “significant other” out to eat in afancy restaurant. Nobody gets off work or school. It’s simply a fun littleholiday, but a holiday on which one must remain forever vigilant(警惕的), for he may be the next April Fool!Each country celebrates April Fool’s differently. In France, the April Fool’s is called “April Fish”. The French fool their friends by taping a paper fish to their friends’ backs. In England, tricks can be played only in the morning. Ifa trick is played on you, you are a “noodle”.(4.0 分)1. April Fool’s Day was first celeb rated in_________.A.EnglandB.AmericaC.FranceD.Rome得分:4(4.0 分)2.

It’s convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There is neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do? Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI(=pardon me for jumping in). Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/N Y as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OFT (=on the floor), or LOL(=laughing out loud), or joining the two into ROTEL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got t o go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals.(4.0 分)6.

When you watch television, you hear and see an advertisement. If you turn the pages of a newspaper or magazine, again you find an advertisement. If you walk down the street, you see one advertising board after another. All day, every day, people whowant to sell you something compete to catch your attention. As a result, advertisements are almost everywhere. In the West, advertisements are the fuel that makes mass media work. Many TV stations, newspapers, magazines, radio stations are privately owned. The government does not endorse them. So where does the money come from? From advertisements. Without advertisements, there would be no private businesses.Have you ever asked yourself what advertising is? Through the years, people have given different answers to the question. For some time it was felt that advertising was a means of “keeping yo ur name before the public”, and some people thought that advertising was “truth well told”. Now, more and more people perceive it in this way: advertising is the paid, non-personal, and usually persuasive presentation of goods, services and ideas by some certain sponsors through various media.First, advertising is usually paid for. Various sponsors pay for the advertisements we see, read, and hear over various media. Second, advertising is non-personal. It is not face-to-face communication. Although you may feel that a message in a certain advertisement is aimed directly at you, in reality, it is directed at large groups of people. Third, advertising is usually persuasive. Directly or indirectly it asks people to do something. All advertisements try to make people believe that the product, idea, or service advertised can benefit them. Fourth, the sponsors of the advertisement must show their names. From the advertisement, we can see if the sponsor is a company, or an individual. Fifth, advertising reaches us through traditional and modem mass media. Included in the traditional media are newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and films. Modern media include emails, matchbox covers, and boards on top of buildings.Comprehension Questions:Choose the best answer for the following questions.1. The existence of the privately owned mass media depends on the support of_____.所选答案: C. advertisers2. According to the passage, different definitions of advertising are given due to_______.所选答案: A. the change of time3. Which of the following is true about people’s understanding of advertising now?所选答案: C. The purpose of advertising is to make people believe insomething.4. We know from the context “sponsor” means _______________.所选答案: B. the one who pays for media in return for advertising5. The last paragraph is mainly about ____________________.所选答案: B. features of advertisingPassage 2America is growing older. Fifty years ago, only 4 out of every 100 people in the United States were 65 or older. Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly the graying of America. has made us a very different society — one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his/her social position, marriage or he alth. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop working isn’t as strong as it used to be. I t doesn't surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public notions are changing.Many people say, "I am much younger than my mother — or my father — was at my age." No one says "act your age" anymore. We've stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.6. It can be learnt from the text that the aging of the population in America _________.所选答案:C. has changed people’s understandingof age7. The underlined word “one” refers to_______ .所选答案: A. a society8. We can infer from the text that if a 25-year-old man becomes general manager of abig firm, the writer would most probably consider it _________.所选答案: A. normal9. “Act your age” means people should ____ .所选答案:B. do the right thing at theright age10. This passage is mainly about ____________________.所选答案:D. how American people’s ideas about age havechanged.第三部分词汇与结构(共5题,每题3分,共15分)Many _____ shops will be forced to close if the new supermarket is built.所选答案: A. local__________ her job.所选答案: B. withWe are _________ our trip until the weather grows warmer.所选答案: D. postponing4.

It’s convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There is neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious time telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB (=be right back) will do? Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI(=pardon me for jumping in). Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/N Y as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OFT (=on the floor), or LOL(=laughing out loud), or joining the two into ROTEL (=rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (=got t o go) or TTYL (=talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals.(4.0 分)6.

Reading ComprehensionPassage OneThere are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.(221 words) 31. Our long-term goals mean a lot ____________.( B)A. If we cannot reach solid short-term goalsB. If we complete the short-term goalsC. If we have dreams of the futureD. If we put forward some plans32. New short-term goals are built upon ____________. (D)A. a daily basisB. your achievement in a weekC. current activitiesD. the goals that have been completed33. When we complete each step of our goals, ____________. (C)A. we will win final successB. we are overwhelmedC. we should build up confidence of successD. we should have strong desire for setting new goals34. What is the main idea of this passage? ____________ (C)A Life is a dynamic thing. B. we should set up long-term goalsC. Different kinds of goals in life.D. The limitation of long-term goals.35. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passage? ____________ (C)A. The long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goalsB. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.C. Life is a static thing, thus we should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.Passage two 英法既爱又恨的关系Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles apart.Last Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary(周年纪念)of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality. The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.But their relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac spea king out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac’s body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug(拥抱), Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn’t stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. Howev er, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys(调查)show that most French people feel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France’s close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain’s close links with the US.Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years o f ―doubtful friendship‖, they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here’s one: What’s the best thing about Britain’s relationship with France? The English Channel.36. For centuries, the relationship between Britain and France is ____________. (D)A. friendlyB. impoliteC. brotherlyD. a mixture of love and hate37. The war in Iraq does ____________ to the relationship between France and Britain. (D)A. goodB. harmC. neither good nor harmD. both good and harm38. The British are not so friendly to __( A)______ and the French are not so friendly to _ ( A)_____.A. Germany; AmericaB. America; GermanyC. Germany; GermanyD. America; America39. ____________ are more interested in having holidays in ____________. (D)A. American people…BritainB. British people … GermanyC. French people … BritainD. British people … France40. What does the last sentence mean? (C)A. As long as the English Channel exists, no further disagreement will form between France and Britain.B. The English Channel can prevent anything unfriendly happening in both France and Britain.C. France and Britain are near neighbors, and this will help balance the relationship between them.D. The English Channel is the largest enemy between France and Britain.Passage 3 社区服务是我们大学中一个重要的组成部分Community service is an important component of education here at our university. We encourage all students to volunteer for at least one community activity before they graduate. A new community program called ―One On One‖ helps elementary students who’ve fallen behind. Your education majors might be especially interested in it because it offers the opportunity to do some teaching, that is, tutoring in math and English.You’d have to volunteer two hours a week for one semester. You can choose to help a child with math, English, or both. Half-hour lessons are fine, so you could do a half hour of each subject two days a week.Professor Dodge will act as a mentor to the tutors —he’ll be available to h elp you with lesson plans or to offer suggestions for activities. He has office hours every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon.

Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering an d doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night. (292 words)46. Which of the following statements is NOT true? ( B)A. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country.C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city.47. With the same money needed for (C) , one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.A. getting a small flat with a gardenB. having a small flat with a gardenC. renting a small flat without a gardenD. buying a small flat without a garden48. When the garden is in blossom, the one _______ has been rewarded. ( B)A. living in the countryB. having spent time working in the gardenC. having a garden of his ownD. having been digging, planting and watering49. People who think happiness lies in the city life would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London. ( A)A. their life was meaninglessB. their life was invaluableC. they didn’t deserve a happy lifeD. they were not worthy of their happy life50.

第2次作业一、阅读理解(本大题共100分,共5小题,每小题20分) 1.Prehistoric men and women enjoyed a more varied diet than people do now, since they ate species of plant and several hundreds thousands types of living things. But only a tiny percentage of these were ever domesticated. Modern shops have hastened a trend towards specialization which began in the earliest days of agriculture. The food of the rich countries has become cheaper relative to wages. It is speedily distributed in supermarkets. But the choice annually becomes less and less great. Even individual foods themselves become more standardized. We live in theworld of carrot specially blunted in order to avoid making a hole in the bag, and the tomato grown to meet a demand for a standard weight of weighting tomatoes to a kilo. Siri von Reis asks: "Only the three major cereals (谷物类食物)and perhaps ten other widely cultivated species stand between famine and survival for the world" s human population and a handful of drug plants has served Western civilization for several thousand years. A rather obvious question arises: Are we missing something?” After all, there are 800 000 species of plant on earth.(1). Tn prehistoric times people.A.ate much more than we do todayB.lived mainly on plant foodC.had a wide-ranging dietD.were more fussy about what they ate(2).Most of us have come to expectA.no variation in our dietB. a reduction in food suppliesC. a specialist dietD.food conforming to a set standard(3). The specialization of food was started byA .B . the emergence of supermarkets the rise of agriculture the rich countries the modern shops (4).According to the passage, people in the West today survive on.A.carrots and tomatoesB.several thousand types of plants and cerealsc.a very small number of cultivated foodsD. special species planted one thousand years ago(5). The conclusion seems to be that we.A.could make use of more natural speciesB.don't cultivate the right kind of foodc.produce more food than we needD.cultivate too many different species2.human body is distributed (分布)in two different ways. Some fat people have a large chest and no waistline(腰身),looking rather like apples. Others are fatter below the waist, looking more like pears.Doctors in Cambridge, England have been examining the relationship between health and fat (脂肪)distribution. They find that the pear- shaped fat people have fewer problems than the apple-shaped fat people. What seems to be most important is not how much fat you have but where you have it. The doctors measured the apple-shaped women and peai,--shaped women with X-ray scanners (X 光扫描器).Human beingshave two types of fat:one is outside fat, that is the fat below the skin, and the other is inside fat that lies inside the body. Using the X-ray scanners, the doctors found that the “apples” have a large amoun t of inside fat.Tf this inside fat is much more than outside fat, it wi11 probably cause heal th problems such as obesi ty (月巴月半症). The best treatment for obesity is to reduce the inside fat. But unfortunately diet treatment (饮食疗法)simply makes an apple-shaped person into a smaller apple and a pear-shaped person into a smaller pear. At the moment there is no effective way of reducing the inside fat.(1).According to the relation between heal th and fatnessA.apple-shaped fat people have fewer problems than pear-shaped peopleB.it' s better to be apple-shaped than to be pear-shapedc.it' s better to be pear-shaped than to be apple-shapedD. fatness is the most dangerous enemy to health(2). The most important thing about fat people seems to beA.the amount of fat they haveB.the knowledge of which typo of the fat people they belong toC.the amount of the outside fat they haveD.the place where they have the fat(3).The basic reason why some people suffer from obesity is that •A.they take very little exercise every dayB.they have much more inside fat than is neededc.they are examined by X-ray scanners quite oftenD.they eat too much(4).According to what is mentioned in the passage, the best treatment for obesity at present is .A.to reduce the amount of food and drinksB.to make the body shape smallerC.already known to those people in troubleD.still to be found.3.University of Arizona researcher Dr. William Rathji says that after a study based on looking into garbage cans, the average family wastes at least $150 per year in food."Homemakers go out of their way to save pennies at the store and thendon't real ize that waste of edible (可食用的)foods adds up much moreat homo," said Dr. Rathji. He was one of about 100 food experts who metin Boise for a conference on food waste and ways to prevent it.American families throw out between 8% and 20% of edible food at a costof $4. 5 billion per year. That" s almost as much as the federal government spends every year for food stamps and child nutrition programs.He found that food items which are costly and in short supply tend to be wasted more. During the 1973 meat shortage, meat waste increased to 9%, compared with 3% in 1974 and 1975. Sugar and sugar products waste jumped to 19% in 1975, when sugar prices doubled from the previous year.Dr. Rathji theorizes that high prices force consumers to experiment, sometimes buy in large quantities. In the case of meat, sometimes low-priced cuts for unappetizing varieties are purchased, consumers then tend to waste more.Ilis theory is that the more variety in food bought, the more wasted. Regular bread is wasted at about a 10% rate, but specialty breads and rolls are wasted at a 20% rate.If people are eating the same thing every day, they learn how to manage it. But if you" re trying to pull something out of the cookbook every night, that's bound to be some waste.Another finding is that lower income families waste less food than middle and upper income families. And the study found that dog food, which accounts for 8% of a shopping cart, is rarely wasted. Fresh produce and frozen items arc more likely to be wasted.The study also showed people with the most knowledge of safe, edible food waste the least. Much food is tossed out because a homemaker suspects it is spoiled when it is not.(1).Large quantities of food are thrown out because a homemaker.A.thinks they are not deliciousB.says they taste bitter and hotC.thinks they smell badD.suspects they are spoiled when they are not(2).American families throw out between of edible food every year.A.5%〜8%B.8%-10%B.20%〜28%D.8%—20%(3).When sugar prices doubled, waste of sugar.A.went downB.went upc.stayed the sameD. was cut in half(4).Which of the following statements is true?A.American housewives are not good homemakers.B.Upper-income families are more wasteful than lower-income ones.c.American families throw away almost as much food as they consume.D.Americans waste a great deal of dog food.(5).When do American families waste more food?A.When prices arc high.B.When food is scarce.c.When they think it is spoiled.D. Al 1 of the above.4.Harvard University named historian Drew Gilpin Faust as its first female president on Sunday, ending a lengthy and secretive search to find a successor (接任者)to Lawrence Summers .The seven-member Harvard Corporation elected Faust, a noted scholar on History of the American South and dean of Harvards Radcliffe Institutefor Advanced Study, as the university' s 28th president.“This is a great day, and a historic day for Harvard. ” James R. Houghton, chairman of the presidential search committee, said in a statement. "Drew Faust is an inspiring and accomplished leader, a superb scholar, a dedicated (献身的)teacher, and a wonderful human being."Her selection is noteworthy given the heated debates over Summers' comments that genetic differences between the sexes might help explain the lack of women in top science jobs.Faust has been dean of Radcliffe since 2001, two years after the former women" s college was combined into the university as a research center with a mission to study gender issues(性另ij问题).Some professors have quietly groused that the 371-year-old university is appointing a fifth president who is not a scientist. No scientist has had the top job since James Bryant Conant retired in 1953; its last four have come from the fields of classics, 1aw, literature and economics.Faust is the first Harvard president who did not receive a degree from the university since Charles Chauncy, a graduate of Cambridge University, who died in office in 1762. She attended the University of Pennsylvania.“Teaching staff turned to her constantly. ” said Sheldon Hackney, a former president of the University of Pennsylvania and historian who worked closely with Faust. "She' s very clear. She has a sense of humor, but she' s very strong-minded.

accident.It is necessary to give you a bloodtransfusion because you lost a great deal of bloodin the accident.However,special careshould be taken in selecting new blood for you.If the blood is too different from yourown,the transfusion could kill you.There are four basic types of blood:A,B,AB,and O.A simple test can indicate aperson’s blood type,which,like hair and height,is inherited from parents.Because of substances contained in each type,the four groups must be transfusedcarefully.Basically,A and B cannot be mixed.A and B cannot receive AB,but AB mayreceive A or B.O can give to any other group;hence it is often called the universal donor.For the opposite reason,AB is sometimes called the universal recipient.However,because so many reactions can occur in transfusions,patients usually receive only saltorplasma(liquid)until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank ofa hospital.In his way,it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality.AmongEuropeans and people of European ancestry, about42percent have type A while45percent have type O.The rarest is type AB.Other races have different percentages. Forexample,some American Indian groups have nearly100 percent type O.16.A good title for this passage is___C_______A)Getting Blood and Plasma B)Special Blood TypesC)Human Blood TypesD)The Blood Bank of a Hospital17.The word“hence”in line8means___C______A)always B)often C)therefore D)seldom18.In a blood transfusion,it is easiest to find the acceptable type of blood for a personwith the blood type of____C___.A)A B)B C)AB D)O19.The purpose of using salt and plasma before a blood transfusion is to allowtime____B____.A)to test the reactions to the transfusionB)for matching the blood to be transfused with the patient’s blood.C)for the blood to be delivered from the blood bankD)to select a new type of blood for the patient20.Most European have blood type_____D____A)A B)B C)O D)A or OPassage3An old woman walked into a clothes shop.She asked the salesgirl to let her have a look at a new dresson display,but the girl stood still behind the counter,taking no notice of the request(要求).The oldwoman spoke to the girl again,raising her voice a bit,but still received no answer.The old womanlooked at the girl and said to herself:"I am too old to see well,I can't even tell a plastic model from areal girl!"On hearing this the rude salesgirl shouted at the old woman,"What?

I can’t afford to pay my bills, let alone a new flat.所选答案: D. You must be jokingPassage 1The mass media influences all aspects of our lives, including the learning of gender roles. Newspapers and magazines, television, and film all have an influence on how we view the roles of women and men and on how we think they should behave.Four decades ago, traditional women’s magazines such as Good Housekeeping and Family Circle talked to women as though they were children who needed to learnthe basics of how to care for their families. Today, magazines do not do this. However,they still tend to define the female role in terms of homemaking and motherhood, and tooffer beauty advice to help women attract men and please husbands. There are now afew less traditional magazines such as Ms. that show women in a range of roles andthat cover a much wider range of topics.Television commercials have also, until recently, presented women primarily assex objects and as housewives. Young sexy women were shown admiring older menwho smoked a particular cigarette brand. Housewives were shown smiling joyfully abouttheir clean bathrooms, or looking guilty for not using the right laundry soap to wash theirhusband’s clothes. These days advertisers are mo re careful about the way they presentwomen, and they are presented in a variety of roles. However, it is still quite common tosee advertisements where beautiful young women are dressed in sexy clothes to sellcars or other products. One study also found that the changes are mainly on nighttimetelevision, with daytime commercials still tending to portray women doing householdchores.Prime-time television programs also often used to stereotype women. In pastdecades, women were usually portrayed as lovers, as mothers, or as weak, passivegirlfriends of powerful, effective men. Today’s TV programs are somewhat different.Women are more likely to be presented as successful and able to support themselvesand their families, but the traditional stereotypes of women are still there. Even whenwomen are depicted as career women, the storylines suggest that they should be sexyas well.问题1. The best title for this passage is _______所选答案: A. Gender Roles in the Media2. What makes Ms. different from other women’s magazines?所选答案: A. Ms. offers women tips of caring for their families.问题 8 得 3 分,满分 3 分3. It can be inferred that ____________ might be a new type of women image on thetelevision commercials.所选答案: D. career women who enjoys her career success4. From the context we know “to stereotype women” (Line 1, Paragraph 4) refers to______________.所选答案: to tag on women some fixed roles and images5. Which of the following statement do you think the writer would least agree with in terms of the media’s attitude towards women?所选答案:The mass media always presents to us a variety of women images as they are in daily life.Passage 2There has been a record of significant interaction between Eastern and Western medical systems for several hundred years. However, the first part of the 20th century was very much a one way flow of information as the developments in Western medicine flooded into China. In Western countries Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) was relatively unknown until President Nixon’s groundbreaking visit to China in 1971 and the accounts of the use of acupuncture for pain control appeared in the New York Times.Since then there has been a rapid growth in the awareness and use of TCM in Western countries. Universities around the world are now offering degrees in TCM. In the UK there are several thousand practitioners offering herbal medicines, acupuncture and other techniques within a Western clinical setting.There are several reasons for this rapid rise in popularity. The initial appeal of the foreign culture was replaced by research reports indicating the effectiveness of TCM treatments. The groundbreaking studies on the successful use of Chinese herbal medicines in the treatment of eczema at Great Ormond Street Hospital hit the national headlines and established medical journals.TCM is now frequently used for this and many other forms of skin disease. Alongside the evidence supporting the use of TCM there was also a growing sense of dissatisfaction with the limitations of modern medical treatment. The lack of a holistic perspective, short consultation times and the side effects of pharmaceutical drugs have indicated that more and more people are seeking additional forms of health care. In recent years improved standards of education and professional organization, and a new emphasis on quality control have indicated that now there is a network of well qualified TCM practitioners offering the benefits of this ancient tradition to the Western public.6.

One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies are "Procedures or techniquesthat learners can use to facilitate a learning task." Instructing students of English in learning strategies can help them becomebetter learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming independent, confident learners. Finally, students become more motivated as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success in learning English. Students need to develop an awareness of the learningprocess and strategies that lead to success. Students who reflect on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems encountered, and evaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students accustomed to having a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the sole judge of their progress. Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves.Because learning strategies are mental processes with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concrete as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to explore new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.(1). Better learning strategies can make language learning more( ).A. funB.interestingC.efficientD.exciting(2). Students who reflect on their own ( )will be more successful in learning.A. thinkingB.evaluationC.performanceD. activities(3). Teachers should encourage students to rely more on ( )A. booksB.notesC.tutorsD.themselves(4). Learning strategies are unobservable mental processes, so teachers should make them ( )A.simplerB.more familiarC.more concreteD. more applicable(5). Which of the following statements is true? ( )A. Students learn learning strategies from the teachers only.B.Learning strategies are completely unobservable.C.Students need to explore new learning strategies for themselves.D.Teachers are the sole judges of students’ progress.2.To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under you control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear.Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not move motionless before his class; he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanation, and his face to express his feeling. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn''t mean he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher''s word and the actor''s. The actor has to speak words which has been learnt by heart, he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don''t understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his audience, which is his class. He can''t learn his part in a stage-play, because their brains couldn''t keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what other had written.(1). A good teacher ( ).A. knows how to hold the interest of his studentsB.must have a good voiceC.knows how to act on the stageD.stands or sits motionless while teaching(2). In what way is a teacher''s work different from an actor''s? ( )A. The teacher must learn everything by heart.B.He knows how to control his voice better than an actor.C.he has to deal with unexpected situations.D. He has to use more facial expressions.(3). The main difference between students in class and theatre audience is that ( ).A. students can move around in the classroomB.students must keep silent while theatre audienceC.no memory work is needed for the studentsD. the students must take part in their teachers'' plays3.Ever since humans have inhabited the earth, they have made use of various forms of communication. Generally, this expression ofthoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words and ideas. Tourists, the deaf, and the mute have had to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very picturesque and exact and can be used Internationally; spelling, however, cannot. Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of flirting or indicating that the party is only joking. A nod signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction. Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals. Road maps and picture signs also guide, warn, and instruct people. While verbalization is the most common form of language,other systems and techniques also express human thoughts andfeelings.(1). Which of the following best summarizes this passage? ( )A. When language is a barrier, people will find other forms of communication.B.Everybody uses only one form of communication.C.Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners.D. Although other forms of communication exist, verbalization is the fastest.(2). Which of the following statements is not true according to the passage? ( )A. There are many forms of communication in existence today.B.Verbalization is the most common form of communication.C.The deaf and mute do not need sign language for communication.D.

Most animals have little connection with animals of different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership ( 伙伴关系 ) which does goodto both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生虫 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals (珊瑚) of the sea. In their skins they havetiny plants act as "dustman", taking some of the waste products form the corals and giving in return oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are ever prevented from lighting so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.(1). Some birds like to sit on a sheep because ( ).A. they can eat its parasitesB. they depend on the sheep for existenceC. they enjoy traveling with the sheepD. they find the position most comfortable(2).

Exercise is one of the few factors with a positive role in long-term maintenance of body weight. Unfortunately, that message has not gotten through to the average American, who would rather try switching to “light” beer and low-calorie bread than increase physical exertion. Doctors found that less than one-fourth of overweight adults who were trying to reduce weight said they were combining exercise with their diet.Still, exercise’s supporting role in weight reduction is necessary.A study confirmed that those who dieted without exercise regained almost all their old weight, while those who worked exercise into their daily routine maintained their new weight.If you have been sedentary and decide to start walking one mile a day, the added exercise could burn an extra 100 calories daily. In a year’ time, assuming no increase in food intake, you could lost ten pounds. By increasing the distance of your walks gradually and making other dietary adjustments, you may lose even more weight.(1). According to the passage, what is the advantage of exercise mentioned by the author? ( )A. It can help you keep good health.B.It can help you maintain body weight.C. It can help you get rid of illness.D.It can help you find a good job.(2). When American people decided to lose their weight, what would they rather try? ( )A. To do exercise.B.

This passage is mainly about ( ).A. the meaning of exerciseB. the way to reduce weightC. the relation between lose weight and exerciseD. the importance of losing weight6. A Reading is not the only way to gain knowledge of the work in the past. There is another large reservoir ( 知识库 ) which may be called experience, and the college student will find that every craftsman ( 工匠 ) has something he can teach and will generally teach gladlyto any college student who does not look down upon them . The information from them differs from ( 不同于 ) that in textbooks and papers chiefly in that its theoretical ( 理论的 ) part -- the explanations of why things happen -- is frequently quite fantastic ( 神奇的 ) . But the demonstration ( 示范 ) and report of what happens , and how it happens are correct even if the reports are in completely unscientific terms ( 术语 ). Presently the college student will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One important thing for a college student to remember is that ifAristotle could talk to the fisherman, so can he.Another source of knowledge is the vast store of traditional (传统的) practices handed down from father to son , or mother to daughter, of old country customs (习惯), of folklore (风俗). All this is very difficult for a college student to examine, for much knowledge and personal experience is needed here to separate good plants from wild grass. The college student shouldlearn to realize and remember how much of real value science has found in this wide, confused wilderness and how often scientific discoveries of what had existed in this area long age. (1). In the last paragraph the phrase "this wide, confused wilderness" refers to ( ).A. personal experienceB. wild weeds among good plantsC. the information from the parents ?the vast store ofD. traditional practices(2). Which of the following statements is supported by the passage? ( )A. The college students have trouble separating good plants from wild grassB. Craftsman s experience is usually unscientificC. The contemptuous ( 傲慢的 ) college students will receive nothing from craftsmenD. Traditional practices are as important as experience for the college student(3). From this passage we can infer that ( ).A. we ll invite the craftsman to teach in the collegeB. schools and books are not the only way to knowledgeC. scientific discoveries late based on personal experienceD. discoveries and rediscoveries are the most important source of knowledge for a college student(4). The author advises the college student to ( ) .A. be contemptuous to the craftsmanB. be patient in helping the craftsman with scientific termsC. learn the craftsman s experience by judging it carefullyD. gain the craftsman s experience without rejection(5). The main idea of this passage is about ( ).A. what to learn from the parentsB. how to gain knowledgeC. why to learn from craftsmanD. how to deal with experience答案:一、单项选择题(70分,共 35 题,每小题 2 分)1. D2.

第2次作业一、阅读理解(本大题共100分,共5小题,每小题20分) 1.Prehistoric men and women enjoyed a more varied diet than people do now, since they ate species of plant and several hundreds thousands types of living things. But only a tiny percentage of these were ever domesticated. Modern shops have hastened a trend towards specialization which began in the earliest days of agriculture. The food of the rich countries has become cheaper relative to wages. It is speedily distributed in supermarkets. But the choice annually becomes less and less great. Even individual foods themselves become more standardized. We live in theworld of carrot specially blunted in order to avoid making a hole in the bag, and the tomato grown to meet a demand for a standard weight of weighting tomatoes to a kilo. Siri von Reis asks: "Only the three major cereals (谷物类食物)and perhaps ten other widely cultivated species stand between famine and survival for the world" s human population and a handful of drug plants has served Western civilization for several thousand years. A rather obvious question arises: Are we missing something?” After all, there are 800 000 species of plant on earth.(1). Tn prehistoric times people.A.ate much more than we do todayB.lived mainly on plant foodC.had a wide-ranging dietD.were more fussy about what they ate(2).Most of us have come to expectA.no variation in our dietB. a reduction in food suppliesC. a specialist dietD.food conforming to a set standard(3). The specialization of food was started byA .B . the emergence of supermarkets the rise of agriculture the rich countries the modern shops (4).According to the passage, people in the West today survive on.A.carrots and tomatoesB.several thousand types of plants and cerealsc.a very small number of cultivated foodsD. special species planted one thousand years ago(5). The conclusion seems to be that we.A.could make use of more natural speciesB.don't cultivate the right kind of foodc.produce more food than we needD.cultivate too many different species2.human body is distributed (分布)in two different ways. Some fat people have a large chest and no waistline(腰身),looking rather like apples. Others are fatter below the waist, looking more like pears.Doctors in Cambridge, England have been examining the relationship between health and fat (脂肪)distribution. They find that the pear- shaped fat people have fewer problems than the apple-shaped fat people. What seems to be most important is not how much fat you have but where you have it. The doctors measured the apple-shaped women and peai,--shaped women with X-ray scanners (X 光扫描器).Human beingshave two types of fat:one is outside fat, that is the fat below the skin, and the other is inside fat that lies inside the body. Using the X-ray scanners, the doctors found that the “apples” have a large amoun t of inside fat.Tf this inside fat is much more than outside fat, it wi11 probably cause heal th problems such as obesi ty (月巴月半症). The best treatment for obesity is to reduce the inside fat. But unfortunately diet treatment (饮食疗法)simply makes an apple-shaped person into a smaller apple and a pear-shaped person into a smaller pear. At the moment there is no effective way of reducing the inside fat.(1).According to the relation between heal th and fatnessA.apple-shaped fat people have fewer problems than pear-shaped peopleB.it' s better to be apple-shaped than to be pear-shapedc.it' s better to be pear-shaped than to be apple-shapedD. fatness is the most dangerous enemy to health(2). The most important thing about fat people seems to beA.the amount of fat they haveB.the knowledge of which typo of the fat people they belong toC.the amount of the outside fat they haveD.the place where they have the fat(3).The basic reason why some people suffer from obesity is that •A.they take very little exercise every dayB.they have much more inside fat than is neededc.they are examined by X-ray scanners quite oftenD.they eat too much(4).According to what is mentioned in the passage, the best treatment for obesity at present is .A.to reduce the amount of food and drinksB.to make the body shape smallerC.already known to those people in troubleD.still to be found.3.University of Arizona researcher Dr. William Rathji says that after a study based on looking into garbage cans, the average family wastes at least $150 per year in food."Homemakers go out of their way to save pennies at the store and thendon't real ize that waste of edible (可食用的)foods adds up much moreat homo," said Dr. Rathji. He was one of about 100 food experts who metin Boise for a conference on food waste and ways to prevent it.American families throw out between 8% and 20% of edible food at a costof $4. 5 billion per year. That" s almost as much as the federal government spends every year for food stamps and child nutrition programs.He found that food items which are costly and in short supply tend to be wasted more. During the 1973 meat shortage, meat waste increased to 9%, compared with 3% in 1974 and 1975. Sugar and sugar products waste jumped to 19% in 1975, when sugar prices doubled from the previous year.Dr. Rathji theorizes that high prices force consumers to experiment, sometimes buy in large quantities. In the case of meat, sometimes low-priced cuts for unappetizing varieties are purchased, consumers then tend to waste more.Ilis theory is that the more variety in food bought, the more wasted. Regular bread is wasted at about a 10% rate, but specialty breads and rolls are wasted at a 20% rate.If people are eating the same thing every day, they learn how to manage it. But if you" re trying to pull something out of the cookbook every night, that's bound to be some waste.Another finding is that lower income families waste less food than middle and upper income families. And the study found that dog food, which accounts for 8% of a shopping cart, is rarely wasted. Fresh produce and frozen items arc more likely to be wasted.The study also showed people with the most knowledge of safe, edible food waste the least. Much food is tossed out because a homemaker suspects it is spoiled when it is not.(1).Large quantities of food are thrown out because a homemaker.A.thinks they are not deliciousB.says they taste bitter and hotC.thinks they smell badD.suspects they are spoiled when they are not(2).American families throw out between of edible food every year.A.5%〜8%B.8%-10%B.20%〜28%D.8%—20%(3).When sugar prices doubled, waste of sugar.A.went downB.went upc.stayed the sameD. was cut in half(4).Which of the following statements is true?A.American housewives are not good homemakers.B.Upper-income families are more wasteful than lower-income ones.c.American families throw away almost as much food as they consume.D.Americans waste a great deal of dog food.(5).When do American families waste more food?A.When prices arc high.B.When food is scarce.c.When they think it is spoiled.D. Al 1 of the above.4.Harvard University named historian Drew Gilpin Faust as its first female president on Sunday, ending a lengthy and secretive search to find a successor (接任者)to Lawrence Summers .The seven-member Harvard Corporation elected Faust, a noted scholar on History of the American South and dean of Harvards Radcliffe Institutefor Advanced Study, as the university' s 28th president.“This is a great day, and a historic day for Harvard. ” James R. Houghton, chairman of the presidential search committee, said in a statement. "Drew Faust is an inspiring and accomplished leader, a superb scholar, a dedicated (献身的)teacher, and a wonderful human being."Her selection is noteworthy given the heated debates over Summers' comments that genetic differences between the sexes might help explain the lack of women in top science jobs.Faust has been dean of Radcliffe since 2001, two years after the former women" s college was combined into the university as a research center with a mission to study gender issues(性另ij问题).Some professors have quietly groused that the 371-year-old university is appointing a fifth president who is not a scientist. No scientist has had the top job since James Bryant Conant retired in 1953; its last four have come from the fields of classics, 1aw, literature and economics.Faust is the first Harvard president who did not receive a degree from the university since Charles Chauncy, a graduate of Cambridge University, who died in office in 1762. She attended the University of Pennsylvania.“Teaching staff turned to her constantly. ” said Sheldon Hackney, a former president of the University of Pennsylvania and historian who worked closely with Faust. "She' s very clear. She has a sense of humor, but she' s very strong-minded. You come to trust in her because she' s so solid."(1).Which is NOT true about Drew Gilpin Faust?A.She is the 28th president of Harvard University.B.She is a famous scholar from the American South.c.She isn' t a graduate from Harvard University.D.She was head of Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study.(2).Lawrence Summers held the view that .A.women cannot achieve as much as men in management B.women cannot hold important positions in society c.women can match men in science jobsD.few women make top scientists owing to genes (3).Which might be the best title for the passage? A.Harvard named its 1st female president.B.History of Harvard University changed.c.Debates on female equality ended.D.Drew GiIpin Faust, a famous woman historian.(4).This passage probably appears in a .A.biographyB.personal letterc.research paperD.newspaper report5.Jessica Alba rebelled(叛离)from her "strict" parents when she was just five. The 29-year-old actress admits her Catholic (天主教)education made her want to "break away" from her mother Catherine and father Mark.She explained: 〃It‘s always been weird(古怪的)because I grew up in a very traditional, Catholic household.
