The wordthat has the opposite meaning is “decrease,” which means to make smaller or less. Among the options, “decrease” in option C is the correct answer.3、The word “communicate” is pronounced as:A. /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/B. /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/C. /kəˈmjuːniːkeɪt/D. /kəˈmjuːniːkeɪt/Answer: AExplanation: The correct pronunciation of “communicate” is /kəˈmjuːnɪkeɪt/. The “c” in “communicate” is not hard, as it does not precede a double vowel.4、Which of the following words has the correct pronunciation?A. “Environment” - /ɪnˌvaɪrənˈmeɪnt/B. “Education” - /ˌɛdʒuˈkeɪʃən/C. “Imagine” - /ɪˈmædʒɪneɪt/D. “Compass” - /kəˈmæpəs/Answer: BExplanation: The correct pronunciation of “education” is /ˌɛdʒuˈkeɪʃən/. The “e” in “education” is long, as it is followed by a “g” which is silent. The other options have mispronounced vowels or consonants.5、The sentence “She always has a smile on her face” emphasizes that sheis always __________.A. cheerfulC. nervousD. sadAnswer: A. cheerfulExplanation: The word “always” in the sentence indicates a constant state or behavior. The phrase “has a smile on her face” suggests that she is in a good mood or happy, which is best described by the word “cheerful.” The other options do not accurately capture the positive connotation of the sentence.二、词汇与语法知识（本大题有15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1、Choose the correct word or phrase to complete the sentence below.The_______of the meeting was quite impressive.A. atmosphereB. audienceC. attendanceD. occasionAnswer: CExplanation: The correct answer is “attendance” because it refers to the number of people who were present at the meeting. The other options do not fit the context of the sentence.2、Select the word that does not belong in the following list.A. enthusiasticC. exhaustedD. alertAnswer: CExplanation: The word “exhausted” does not belong in the list because it is an adjective that describes someone who is very tired, whereas “enthusiastic,” “energetic,” and “alert” all describe someone who is full of energy or has a positive, watchful attitude.3、Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The teacher___________the students to be quiet during the examination.A. requestedB. suggestedC. orderedD. recommendedAnswer: C. orderedExplanation: The correct choice is “ordered” because it indicates a direct command or instruction from the teacher. The other options, while they could be used in some contexts, do not convey the same level of authority or necessity as “ordered” does in this sentence.4、Complete the sentence using the correct form of the verb in parentheses.If you________(be) more careful, you would not have made so many mistakes.A. areB. wereC. will beD. had beenAnswer: B. wereExplanation: The correct form of the verb to use in this sentence is “were,” which i s the past subjunctive form of “to be.” The sentence is expressing a hypothetical situation, which is a situation that is not real but is being considered for the sake of argument. The past subjunctive is used to describea condition that is not true but could have been or would have been.5、Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The professor___________the students’ questions eagerly.A. ignoredB. addressedC. neglectedD. overlookedAnswer: B. addressedExplanation: The correct word to complet e the sentence is “addressed,” which means to speak to or write to someone formally or officially. The professor is expected to address the students’ questions, not ignore, neglect, or overlook them.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses.They___________(be) discussing the project when the meeting was called toorder.A. wereB. had beenC. have beenD. isAnswer: A. wereExplanation: The correct form of the verb is “were,” which is the past continuous tense. The sentence describes an action that was happening at a specific past time (when the meeting was called to order), so the past continuous tense is appropriate. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the context or the tense required.7、Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The teacher was surprised by the student’s_ability to understand complex concepts.A)surpriseB)surprisedC)surprisingD)surpriseablyAnswer: C) surprisingExplanation: The correct answer is “surprising” because it is the adjective form that describes the student’s ability. “Surprise” is a noun, “surprised” is the past participle form of the verb, and “surpriseably” is not a word.8、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the given verb in brackets.They (be) (not) aware of the changes that (take) place in the company last month.A)wereB)areC)wasD)beAnswer: A) wereExplanation: The correct answer is “were” because the subject “they” is plural, and the past perfect tense “had taken” indicates that the cha nges occurred before the awareness of them. Therefore, “were” is the correct past tense form of “be.”9.Choose the word that best completes the sentence.I can’t believe how____________changes have occurred in this small town over the past decade.A)numerousB)rapidC)suddenD)gradualAnswer: D) gradualExplanation: The sentence is describing changes that have occurred over a period of time, suggesting a process that was not immediate or extreme. “Gradual” fits this context best, indicating changes that happen slowly over time.10.Select the correct form of the verb to complete the following sentence.The professor___________us a detailed outline of the research project before the deadline.A)gaveB)has givenC)will giveD)is givingAnswer: B) has givenExplanation: The sentence implies that the action of giving the outline has already occurred before the deadline. The present perfect tense (“has given”) is used to describe actions that have a present relevance or result.11.Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The manager was_about the new project, but the team was confident.A)apprehensiveB)optimisticC)indifferentD)enthusiasticAnswer: A) apprehensiveExplanation: The correct answer is “apprehensive” because it means feeling or showing anxiety or fear about something, which fits the context of the manager being concerned about the new project. The other options do not convey the same sense of worry or anxiety.12.Select the word that is closest in meaning to the underlined word:The teacher’s_appr oach to teaching made the subject much more engaging.A)traditionalB)innovativeC)passiveD)objectiveAnswer: B) innovativeExplanation: The underlined word “innovative” means introducing new methods or ideas. The sentence suggests that the teacher’s approach was different and made the subject more engaging. The word “traditional” would imply a more conventional method, “passive” would suggest a lack of interest, and “objective” would imply a neutral approach, none of which fit the context as well as “innovative.”13.Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The company’s new policy has been widely __________, with both positive and negative reactions.A. criticizedB. implementedC. supportedD. rejectedAnswer: B. implementedExplanation: The correct word here should reflect that the policy has been put into effect. “Implemented” means to carry out or put into effect, which fits the context. “Criticized” would imply there are negative reactions,“supported” would imply positive reactions, and “rejected” wo uld imply outright refusal, none of which fully capture the act of the policy being put into practice.14.Select the correct form of the verb to complete the sentence.She_______(go) to the market every morning, but now she has a car.A. used to goB. uses to goC. used goD. uses goAnswer: A. used to goExplanation: The correct phrase to use in this context is “used to” followed by the base form of the verb, which indicates a past habit or practice that has since changed. “Used to go” is the correc t past simple form that indicates a habit in the past. The other options are grammatically incorrect or do not convey the intended meaning.15.Choose the correct word or phrase to complete the sentence.The professor___________the students to study hard for the exam.A. advisedB. recommendedC. suggestedD. proposedAnswer: B. recommendedExplanation: The correct answer is “recommended” because it is the most appropriate word to express the professor’s advice. “Advised,” “suggested,” and “proposed” can also mean giving advice or suggestions, but “recommended”is often used in a more formal context, such as in an academic setting.三、完形填空（30分）Passage:In the small town of Willow Creek, there was once a charming old library that stood at the heart of the community.

The community was shocked and immediately rallied to save their beloved library. They organized a series of events, including a book sale, a bake sale, and a benefit concert, to raise funds.The most successful event was the “Willow Creek Reads” program, where local authors were invited to read to the children and talk about their writing process. The children were excited and inspired, and the adults were reminded of the power of books to bring people together.As the days went by, more and more people began to donate books and moneyto the library. Mrs. Thompson was overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from the community. She knew that the library would not only survive but thrive.One evening, as Mrs. Thompson was organizing a new shelf of donated books, she noticed a mysterious note tucked inside one of the books.

With just a few clicks, we can connect with people from all over the world, access a vast amount of information, and even conduct transactions online.

Social media platforms have become an integral part of daily life,allowing individuals to connect with others across the globe. However, this shift in communication has raised concerns about the impact on face-to-face interactions and the potential loss of traditional social skills.One of the most popular social media platforms is Instagram, which is known for its focus on visual content. Users can share photos, videos, and stories, and follow others who share similar interests. While Instagram can be a great way to stay connected with friends and discover new things, it also has its downsides.A recent study found that excessive use of Instagram can lead to feelings of loneliness and depression. The constant comparison with others’ seemingly perfect lives can create a sense of inadequacy. Additionally, the platform’s algorithm can create a filter bubble, where users are only exposed to content that aligns with their existing beliefs and interests, thus limiting their exposure to diverse perspectives.Despite these concerns, many people find Instagram to be a valuable tool for networking and personal growth. It can provide a platform for artists, writers, and entrepreneurs to showcase their work and connect with potential audiences. Moreover, it can be a source of inspiration and motivation, as users are exposed to the achievements and stories of others.Questions:1、What is the main topic of the passage?A) The benefits of using social media platforms.B) The negative effects of Instagram on social interactions.C) The history of social media platforms.D) The role of technology in modern communication.2、Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a potential negative effect of using Instagram?A) Feelings of inadequacy.B) Limited exposure to diverse perspectives.C) Improved communication skills.D) Increased feelings of loneliness and depression.3、What is the author’s attitude towards Instagram?A) Highly critical.B) Indifferent.C) Positive and supportive.D) Ambiguous.Answers:1、B) The negative effects of Instagram on social interactions.2、C) Improved communication skills.3、D) Ambiguous.第三题Reading Passage:In the small town of Greenfield, there was a long-standing tradition of the annual Greenfield Festival.

It was a time for celebration, a showcase of local talent, and a chance for the community to come together and enjoy the arts.One of the highlights of the festival was the “Greenfield Talent Show,” where local residents could audition to perform.

Online shopping has become increasingly popular due to its convenience and the vast variety of products available. However, this shift has also brought about challenges and changes in the retail industry.One of the main advantages of e-commerce is the convenience it offers. Customers can shop from the comfort of their own homes at any time of the day or night. This eliminates the need to travel to physical stores and wait in long queues. Additionally, online platforms often provide detailed product descriptions, customer reviews, and even virtual try-ons, which can help customers make more informed purchasing decisions.Despite these benefits, e-commerce has also presented challenges fortraditional retailers. Many have had to adapt to the changing landscape by investing in their online presence and offering competitive pricing and customer service. However, some have struggled to keep up and have been forced to close their doors.The retail industry is also witnessing a shift in consumer behavior. Customers are becoming more environmentally conscious and are increasingly looking for sustainable and ethical products. This has led to a rise ineco-friendly shopping options and a decline in demand for fast fashion.1.What is the main advantage of e-commerce mentioned in the passage?A) Competitive pricingB) ConvenienceC) Eco-friendly optionsD) Detailed product reviews2.How has e-commerce affected traditional brick-and-mortar stores?A) They have become more profitable.B) They have had to adapt and invest in online presence.C) They have seen a significant increase in foot traffic.D) They have closed down due to increased competition.3.What is the trend in consumer behavior mentioned in the passage?A) Customers are looking for more affordable products.B) Customers are becoming more environmentally conscious.C) Customers are preferring fast fashion over sustainable options.D) Customers are no longer interested in online shopping.Answers:1.B) Convenience2.B) They have had to adapt and invest in online presence.3.B) Customers are becoming more environmentally conscious.第五题Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.In recent years, there has been a growing interest in online education. This shift is primarily due to the convenience and flexibility it offers to students. Online courses allow individuals to learn at their own pace, from any location, and often at a lower cost compared to traditional in-person classes. However, despite these advantages, online learning also comes with its own set of challenges.One of the main concerns is the potential for reduced social interaction. In traditional classrooms, students have the opportunity to engage with their peers and professors, which can enhance their learning experience. Online students, on the other hand, may feel isolated and disconnected from the academic community. This can lead to a lack of motivation and engagement in the course material.Another challenge is the need for self-discipline. Online courses require students to be self-motivated and organized. Without the structure of a traditional classroom, students must set their own schedules and manage their time effectively. This can be difficult for some individuals, especially thosewho are accustomed to the routine of attending classes on campus.Despite these challenges, many online learners find that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. They appreciate the ability to work around their other commitments, such as full-time jobs or family responsibilities. Additionally, online courses often provide access to a wider range of resources and expertise than traditional courses.1.The primary reason for the growing interest in online education is:a) the opportunity for social interactionb) the flexibility and convenience it offersc) the lower cost compared to traditional in-person classesd) the access to a wider range of resources2.What is one of the main concerns mentioned about online learning?a) The convenience of learning at one’s own paceb) The potential for reduced social interactionc) The lower cost of online coursesd) The increased access to expertise3.According to the passage, which of the following is a challenge for online learners?a) The ease of engaging with peers and professorsb) The need for self-discipline and organizationc) The lower cost of online coursesd) The ability to work around other commitmentsAnswers:1.b) the flexibility and convenience it offers2.b) The potential for reduced social interaction3.b) The need for self-discipline and organization五、补全对话（本大题有5小题，每小题3分，共15分）第一题A: Excuse me, could you help me with some English vocabulary?B: Sure, I’d be happy to.

In the past, people had to rely on traditional media sources such as newspapers, magazines, and television to stay informed. Today, with just a few clicks, we can access a wealth of information from around the world. This shift has had a significant impact on the media industry.One of the most noticeable changes is the decline in newspaper circulation. As more people turn to online news sources, newspapers have been forced to adapt. Many have shifted their focus to digital platforms, offering online subscriptions and digital editions. However, this hasnot been enough to offset the loss of print readership.The rise of social media has also had a profound effect on the media landscape. Platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram have become powerful tools for news dissemination. They allow users to share stories, opinions, and videos with their networks, which can rapidly spread information. However, this has also led to concerns about the spread of misinformation and fake news.Moreover, the internet has given rise to new media formats such as podcasts and online video content. These formats have provided new opportunities for creators to reach audiences. However, they have also created a more fragmented media landscape, with audiences fragmented across various platforms.Despite these challenges, the internet has also brought about several benefits. It has democratized access to information, allowing people to consume news and media from a wide range of sources. It has also enabled new forms of storytelling and creative expression.Questions:16. What is the main topic of the passage?A) The decline of traditional media.B) The rise of social media.C) The impact of the internet on the media industry.D) The benefits of online news.17. According to the passage, what has been the most significant change in the media industry?A) The rise of podcasts.B) The decline in newspaper circulation.C) The spread of misinformation.D) The fragmentation of the media landscape.18.

It has caused a decline in newspaper circulation and led to the rise of social media platforms. Additionally, the internet has facilitated the growthof new media formats such as podcasts and online video content. Despite the challenges, the internet has democratized access to information and provided new opportunities for storytelling and creative expression.Part IV Writing (15 points)Write an essay of about 150-200 words on the following topic:How has technology changed the way we communicate with each other?You should use your own ideas, knowledge, and experience and supportyour argument with examples.Note: This is just a sample essay; the actual essay should be written by the candidate.Technology has significantly transformed the way we communicate with each other. In the past, communication was limited to face-to-face interactions, letters, and phone calls. Today, with the advent of the internet and mobile technology, communication has become faster, more convenient, and more diverse.One of the most notable changes is the rise of social media platforms. These platforms have revolutionized the way we share information, photos, and videos with our friends and family. We can now stay connected with people across the globe in real-time, sharing our daily lives and experiences.Moreover, the internet has made communication more accessible and cost-effective. Email, instant messaging, and video conferencing havereplaced traditional forms of communication, making it easier to communicate with others regardless of their location. This hasparticularly benefited businesses, which can now conduct international meetings and negotiations without the need for travel.However, technology has also brought about challenges, such as privacy concerns and the potential for misinformation. It is crucial to use these tools responsibly and be aware of their limitations.In conclusion, technology has had a profound impact on the way we communicate. While it has brought about many benefits, it is essential to be mindful of its potential drawbacks.。

For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneWhen my daughter first began competing in school chess tournaments, I often chatted with otherparents. Sometimes, I’d ask if they played chess themselves. Usually, the reply was no. When Ivolunteered that I was learning to play, their tone was cheerfully joking:“Good luck with that!” If thisgame is so good for kids, why are adults ignoring it? Seeing someone playing smart phone games, lwanted to say:“Why are you having your kids do chess while you do that?”Sure, we parents had work to do, work that helped pay for the lessons our kids were enjoying. But I also wondered if we were sending a subtle message:that learning was for the young. During one tournament, I saw a group of parents. They were playing chess! Just then, a group of kids passed me “Why are adults learing chess?” one asked, in a vaguely teasing tone.I was tired of sitting on the sidelines.I wanted in.And that is how I got a membership card andstarted throwing myself in.Early on, I was nervous, even though I really had nothing to lose,except mypride.“A master can sometimes play badly,” as one grandmaster(国际象棋大师)put it,“a fan.never!” And fan I was. It was three hours of concentration and thinking, with my phone turned off.Itfelt like a gym for the brain.Being a beginner can be hard at any age, but it gets harder as you get older.The phrase “adultbeginner” has an air of gentle pity. It implies the learning of something that you should have perhapsalready learned.36. What can we learn about other parents from their remarks in Para. 1?A. They were indifferent to adult learners.B. They agreed on the idea of learning chess.C. They gave congratulations to the adult learner.D. They thought it odd for an adult to learn chess.37.What was a group of parents doing during one tournament in Para. 2?A. Playing chess.B. Enjoying chatting.C. Watching kids play chessD. Helping kids with their lessons.38.Which of the following is closest in meaning to “ sitting on the sidelines in Para. 3?A. Not being noticedB. Expressing vague ideasC. Not being involvedD. Following what others do.39.What did the writer think of his experience of learning to play chess?A. It helped him remain calm.B. It helped him train his brain.C. It made him proud of himself.D. It made him question himself.Passage TwoThere’s an old fixed understanding about the difference between cats and dogs. Dogs are loving andloyal, while cats are aloof (冷漠离群的) and indifferent. Most cat people, however, probablydisagree. Overall, cat research suggests cats do form emotional bonds with their owners. Cats seem toexperience separation anxiety, respond to their owners’ voices more than to strangers’ and look for comfort when scared.But a new study reveals a more complicated picture of our relationship with cats. Adapting a methodpreviously used to study dogs, the scientists found cats--unlike dogs--don't avoid strangers who refuseto help their owners. This doesnt mean that the cats in this study were selfish , but they simply didn'tunderstand how human beings respond to each other. They weren't aware that some of the strangerswere being unhelpful.In an experiment, a cat watched as her owner tried to open a box to get at something inside. Twostrangers sat on either side of the owner and the owner turned to one of them and asked for help. In“helper trials, the stranger helped the owner to open the box. In “ non-helpertrials, the strangerefused. The other stranger sat passively, doing nothing. Then , both strangers offered the cat a treat,and the scientists watched to see which stranger the cat approached first. Did she prefer to take food froma helpful stranger over a passive one? Or did she avoid taking food from the non-helper?When this method was used to test dogs, they showed a clear preference. The dogs preferred not to take food from a stranger who refused to help their owner. In contrast, the cats in the study werecompletely indifferent. They showed no preference for the helpful person and no avoidance (避开) ofthe unhelpful person. Apparently , as far as cats are concerned , food is food.What should we take from this? An attractive conclusion would be that cats are selfish and don'tcare about how their owners are treated at all. This is an example of human-centered thinking ofanimals. To really understand cats , we have to get out of this view and think of them as cats.40.What do most cat people probably disagree with , according to Para. 1?A. Cats are strange.B. Cats are loving.C. Cats are caring.D. Cats are cold.41.What does most research about cats show?A. Thev don't need their owners’ attention.B. They are emotionally attached to their ownersC. They don't experience separation anxiety as dogs do.D. They respond to their owners’ voices less than dogs do.42.What can be learned from the study?A. Cats take food no matter who feeds them.B. Cats refuse food from unhelpful strangers.C. Dogs refuse food from those who anger them.D. Dogs take food no matter how they are treated.43.What should we do to better understand cats , according to the last paragraph?A. To treat them as friends.B. To compare them with dogs.C. To regard them as animals.D. To care about their behavior.Passage ThreeScientists have shown that exercise is linked to brain changes throughout all stages of life and canhelp the brain develop and stay healthy. Babies, for example , need regular exercise to form connectionsin the brain. In children, research suggests that exercise "improves attention , focus and' schoolperformance. In the elderly, exercise has been shown to help slow memory loss.Then how does exercise help the brain? Over the last 20 years, scientists have learned that exercisecan help keep the mind sharp in a number of ways. Exercise improves blood flow to the brain. The bloodcarries oxygen, contributing to more efficient connections between brain cells. Increasing blood flow isone way that exercise can improve mental abilities. The positive effects of exercise on the brain can beseen in babies, pre-teenagers and adults.Babies are in near-constant movement, which is extremely important for development. Thismovement not only strengthens their muscles, but also helps their brains form connections. The processcontinues throughout life but is most intense in infancy (婴儿期) and toddlerhood (学步期), whenchildren are mastering brand-new skills like sitting, standing, walking, running and jumping.Exercise is also healthy for pre-teenagers’ brains. In fact, some research suggests that regularexercise can improve school performance. A study found that the effects depended on how much kidsexercised. The more days the children attended the exercise program, the more their focus improved.Finally, exercise helps keep the mind sharp during adulthood. Research suggests exercise canincrease the size of the hippocampus, an important area of the brain, which becomes smaller with age.and can increase levels of a protein (蛋白质) that aids the growth of new brain cells.

During thisvoyage the explorers met a lot of resistance (抵抗) from the local Indians. In one particular tribe thewomen fighters were so fierce that they drove their male fighters in front of them with spears. Thus theriver was named after the famous women fighters of the ancient Greek stories , the Amazons.This voyage also started our wonder of the greatest river and the largest area of rainforest in theworld. About 20% of all fresh water carried to the oceans is from the Amazon River. The Amazon basinis the world's largest, about the size of Europe. The river is a product of the rainy season, which bringshuge rains every summer. This also produces a large area of rainforest, which supports the largestnumber of diverse plants and animals of anv area in the world.The Amazon rainforest is also important when it comes to the future of global warming, as it is a huge natural store of carbon. Up until recently it was thought that the Amazon had fully grown and thus could not take up any more CO2. Experiments have shown this could be wrong and that the Amazor rainforest might be sucking up an additional five tons of CO2, from the atmosphere per hectare (公顷) per year. This is because plants react favorably to increased CO2; because it is the raw material for photosynthesis(光合作用）, the more of it the better. So having more CO2 in the atmosphere acts like a fertilizer, stimulating plant growth. Because of the size of the Amazon rainforest, it seems that presently it is taking up a large percentage of our CO2, pollution in the atmosphere, about 75% of the world’s car pollution.48.After whom was the Amazon River named?A. The Indian women fighters.B. The head of an Indian tribe.C. The first explorer of the river.D. The women fighters in ancient Greek stories.49.Which of the following statements is true?A. The Amazon basin is the largest in the world.(B. The Amazon River causes huge rains every summer.C. The Amazon rainforest supports about 20% of the world's plants.D. The Amazon River carries 75% of the world's water to the oceans.50.Why is CO2, compared to a fertilizer in Para. 3?A. They both absorb light.B. They both store heat.C. They both help plants grow.D. .They both cause global warming.51.What is implied in the last paragraph?A. The Amazon rainforest may disappear soon.B. The Amazon may take up more CO2, in the future.C. The size of the Amazon basin may become smaller.D. People may change the name of the Amazon River.Passage FiveThe AIDA model is the foundation of modern marketing and advertising practice. It outlines the fourbasic steps that can be used to persuade potential customers to make a purchase. The first three steps liein creating attention (A) , developing interest (I) , and building desire ( D) for the product, before thefourth step--the “call to action”( A)--tells them exactly how and where to buy. AIDA can channel thecustomer's feelings through each stage of the communication process toward reaching a sale.Attracting the customers attention is the first challenge, and this may be achieved by using anattractive phrase, offering a discount or something for free, or demonstrating how a problem can besolved. Once someone's attention has been seized, it must be turned into real interest. This is best doneby providing a brief description of the product's benefits to the consumer, rather than simply listing theproduct's main features. Problem-solving claims, or results-based advice can be used to create desire.before finally laying out a simple way for that desire to be met--the means to buy. On websiteadvertising, this might be a direct link; on TV or print, it may be a website or telephone number.In the movie industry, the stages of AIDA are used to great effect. Movie studios often begin theirmarketing campaigns months in advance with giant posters to attract attention to the new movie. Shortattractive previews follow, which develop interest by offering an attractive glimpse of the movie withoutgiving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview, which is carefully designedto show the exciting moments of the movie , from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue. On theopening weekend, advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie's release , invitingthe consumer to go and buy a ticket.52. What is the .purpose of creating the AIDA model?A. To promote potential sales.B. To simplify the daily business.C. To describe the types of markets.D. To lay the foundation for advertising.53.Which of the following can turn customers’ attention into real interest?A. Listing the product's main features.B. Describing the benefits of a product.C. Selling a product at a great discount.D. Offering free samples through a link.54.In which stage of the AIDA model are giant posters used?A. Attention.B. Interest.C. Desire.D.Action.55.What is the writer's tone in introducing the AIDA model?A. Surprised.B. CriticalC. ObjectiveD. HopefulV.Daily Conversation(15 points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Brown: Hello, I need to catch a plane tomorrow at 9 a. m.___57__?Clerk: Of course.__58___?Brown: Room 423.Clerk: OK, we will call you then.__59___?Brown: Yes.

2024年成人高考成考(高起本)英语试题与参考答案

2024年成人高考成考英语(高起本)模拟试题与参考答案一、语音知识（本大题有5小题，每小题2分，共10分）1、Listen to the following words and choose the one whose underlined part is pronounced differently from the others:A. dropB. sportC. workD. wordAnswer: CExplanation: In this option, the underlined part is pronounced /ɜːr/, while in the other options, it is pronounced /ɔː/ or /ɑː/ depending on the context.2、Choose the word whose underlined part has a different pronunciation from the others:A. withB. thickC. richD. witherAnswer: DExplanation: The underlined part in “thick” and “rich” is pronounced /ɪ/, while in “with” and “wither,” it is pronounced /ɪ/. The difference lies in the “th” in “wither,” which changes the pronunciation to /iː/.3、Listen to the following sentences and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the rest:A. catB. canC. carD. cartAnswer: B (can)Explanation: The other words are all pronounced with the “k” sound at the beginning. The word “can” has the “k” sound before the “an” vowel combination, but it’s not pronounced as a separate “k” sound.4、Choose the sentence that contains an example of the schwa sound:A. She has a cat.B. It is a small cat.C. The cat is beautiful.D. With a cat in the room.Answer: B (It is a small cat)Explanation: The schwa sound is represented by the symbol əand is a weak vowel sound. In option B, the word “is” is pronounced with a schwa sound, which is characteristic of the schwa. The other sentences don’t contain an example ofthe schwa sound.5、Listen to the following sentence and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the others.A. appleB. bananaC. catD. fatherAnswer: CExplanation: The words “apple,” “banana,” and “father” are all pronounced with a short /æ/ sound. The word “cat,” however, is pronounced with a long /æ/ sound. Therefore, “cat” is the word that is pronounced differently.二、词汇与语法知识（本大题有15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1、The conference will be held in the auditorium____all the sports stars are expected to attend.A. whereB. whichC. thatD. asAnswer: A. whereExplanation: “Where” is used here as a relative adverb to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause. In this context, “where all the sports starsare expected to attend” describes the location of the auditorium. The use of “which” or “that” would make the clause restrictive, which is not requiredin this sentence.2、Despite the heavy rain, the workers___on time for the site meeting.A. had comeB. comeC. cameD. were comingAnswer: C. cameExplanation: “Came” is the past tense of the verb “to come,” fitting the past tense context of the sentence. “Had come” and “were coming” suggesta past perfect and continuous aspect, which is not required in this context. “Come” is th e simple present tense, which does not match the past tense indicator in the beginning of the sentence.3、Choose the word that does not belong in the following list:a)translate b) eventual c) elect d) renovateAnswer: c) electExplanation: The word “elect” is the odd one out because it means “choose” or “select,” whereas the other words are all related to the process of changing or transferring something. “Translate” means to convert words from one language to another, “eventual” refers to an outcome that wi ll happen eventually, and “renovate” means to repair, update, or improve something.4、Choose the correct past participle form of the verb in parentheses:The students__________(visit) the museum on the weekend.a)visited b) has visited c) having visited d) will visitAnswer: a) visitedExplanation: The correct past participle to use with the modal verb “have” and the past tense of the verb “visit” is “visited.” Therefore, the correct sentence is “The students visited the museum on the weekend.” Options b) and d) are incorrect because “has visited” is the present perfect tense and “will visit” is the future simple tense. Option c) “having visited” is incorrect as it seems to suggest an ongoing action, while the sentence is about a completed action.5、Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The speaker was___________by the audience, who cheered and applauded enthusiastically.A)ignoredB)admiredC)appreciatedD)overwhelmedAnswer: D) overwhelmedExplanation: The context of the sentence suggests that the speaker was positively affected by the audience’s reaction. “Overwhelmed” means to be affected emotionally in a very strong way, often with feelings of excitement or happiness. The other options do not fit the context as well: “ignored” means not paid attention to, “admired” means regarded with respect or approval, and“appreciated” means to be grateful for or to recognize the value of something.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses: Although the weather was terrible, the marathon runners___________(be) determined to finish the race.A)areB)wereC)isD)were beingAnswer: B) wereExplanation: The sentence describes an action that happened in the past. The phrase “Although the weather was terrible” sets the scene, and the main clause “the marathon runners” is referring to people who were running in the past. Therefore, the correct form of the verb to use is the past simple tense, “were.” The other options are incorrect because “are” is the present simple tense, “is” is the singular present tense, and “were being” is the past continuous tense, which does not fit the context of the sentence.7、He was told not to go abroad. As a result, he .A) has decided to stayB) decided to stayC) will decide to stayD) decides to stayAnswer: B解析：本题考查时态。

Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneIn the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the “Lusitania”, which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1,500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300,000 or more. The ship lying on the sea-bed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about $ 1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.61.Divers today try to bring to the surface .A. gold and jewelsB. parts of shipsC. whole shipsD. all of the above62.Diver try to bring up metals because.they have been in the sea for a long timegold and jewels are not valuable thingssome kinds of metals are worth a lot of moneyit is easy to bring up metals63.The word “surface” in the passage means the.A. marketB. airC. top of a liquidD. sea64.John Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the partsof the “Lusitania” for about.A. $12,000B. $300,000C. $1,200,000D. $1,800,00065.John Light bought the “Lusitania”.A. before 1915B. before it sankC. after it sankD. after they had brought up the propellersPassage TwoMan's first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it. The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature—no living thing was ever created with wheels. How, then, did man come to invent the wheel? Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the carcass of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected, at their centers by a string stick. This would roll along just as the logs did, yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being and with them the first carts.66.The wheel is important because.A. it was man's first real inventionB. all transportation depends on itC. every machine depends on itD. both B and C67.The wheel is called.A. simpleB. complicatedC. strangeD. unusual68.It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel becauseA. it led to many other inventionsB. man had no use for it thenC. there were no wheels in natureD. all of the above69.The wheel was probably invented by.A. a group of early huntersB. the first men on earthC. a great prehistoric thinkerD. the man who made the first cart70.This selection says that the first wheel may have been aA. round piece of stoneB. heavy logC. piece of metalD. slice of logPassage ThreeEating in space is different from eating on earth. The food that astronauts carry with them does not look like the food you eat. Some food is carried in closed bags. It is cooked and frozen before the astronauts get it. All the water is removed from the food. In the spaceship the astronaut puts t he water back. He “shoots” hot or cold water into the food bag with a special gun. He eats the food through a small hole in the bag.Other foods come in bite sizes. The astronaut puts a whole piece in his mouth at once. There an be no crambs. Crambs would float around the spaceship and get in the way. Meat and cake often come in bite-sized pieces. Astronauts can' t drink water from open cups. The water would float in drops in the air. The water is put in the special gun. Theastronaut shoots the water into his mouth. Eating in space is not easy. Astronauts must learn to eat this way.71.Some space foods are carried in.A. water gunsB. lunch boxesC. closed bagsD. crumbs72.The story does not say this, but from what we have read, we can tell that.you get much hungrier in space than you doyou can't have water to drink in a spaceshipastronauts must learn many new and different thingsyou can't eat anything in a spaceship73.Why can't astronauts drink water from cups?The water would come from the open cups.The water would spill all over their food.Crambs would float in the cups.The cups would float in the air.74.The main idea of the whole story is that.there is more food and water in space than on eartheating and drinking in space is a special problemastronauts can never eat or drink in a spaceshipthere is no food or water in a spaceship75.Which of the following does the story lead you to believe?Food for astronauts must be made in a special way.All meat on earth comes in bite-sized pieces.Astronauts will only eat cakes made from crambs.Astronauts have to go hungry in a spaceship.Passage FourThe energy which the sun radiates goes in every direction, and only a minute part of it falls on the earth. Even so, it represents power of about 5,000,000 horsepower （马力）per square mile per day; the sun gives us as much energy every miunte as mankind utilizes in a year. At present, we use this energy indirectly, and it is our final source of power. Coal represents the chemical action of the sun on green plants thousands of years ago. Water power results from the rain formed by vapor which comes from the evaporation of water under the sunshine. Even windmills operate because of air currents set in motion by the different heating affects of the sun in different places. Some day, through chemistry or some type of solar engine, we shall harness this great source of energy more directly. Already a scientist has worked out an engine, surprisingly efficient, in which the sun's rays are concentrated through mirrors on a tube of water to create steam.76.How much energy given off by the sun reaches the earth?A. 100% but indirectly.B. 5%.C. 50%.D. only a very tiny amount.77.The reason why all the solar energy falling on the earthcan't be utilized is that.only a very small part is available the sun is too distant from the earthit takes thousands of years for this energy to be stored up in coal and oilour scientific knowledge is not sufficient78.Which of the following statements is NOT true?Even windmill's action depends on the sun.The sun produces enormous energy for man to make use of.Some day man will be able to utilize 100% of the solar energy that gets to the earth.The sun produces different heating effects in different places.79.In order to support this argument, the writer gives the example that.a machine using solar energy efficiently has already been developedthe sun is our final source of powerman uses only a tiny part of the sun's energythe part of the sun's energy we use is used indirectly80.This passage centers mainly on.harnessing energy through chemistryour last source of powerhow water power is producedthe amount of solar energy that can be utilizedV.

Other people believe that women have the ability to compete with men. There have been many famous women state leaders and great scientists in the world. We should fully carry out the principle “to each according to his work” so that the enthusiasm of both men and women for work can be fully aroused.。
