I. Reading comprehension Passage 1 Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger（ 汉堡包 ） stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries. With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald ’ s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the localMcDonald ’ s, called the Big Mac Index （ 巨无霸指数 ）.That ’ s not to say thatevery nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald ’ s in India doesn ’ t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism （ 沙文主义 ）, and European nations in particular haveviewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A2015-11-07北京地区成人学士学位英语考试试题French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he anda group of people destroyed a McDonald's underconstruction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, abomb exploded in a FrenchMcDonald’ s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) (76)No one claimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’ s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of pea ceful globalization.1.According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE.A.McDonald's was founded in 1948.B.McDonald ’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.C.McDonald ’s has over 30,000 locations in theworld now.D.McDonald ’s was very small in scale in the beginning.2.The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean .A. very crowdedB. very deanC. existing everywhereD. occurring frequently3.From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that .A.McDonald ’ s designs its menu to suit the local peoplelions of young adults got their first job with McDonaldC.the McDonald’ s menu sticks to old -fashioned favorites such as the Big MacD.the low prices McDonald ’ s bring tens of millions of people through its doors every day4.What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's?A.They organized a strike.B.They protested outside a McDonald ’ s.C.They refused to go to a newly- built McDonald ’ s.D.They destroyed a McDonald ’ s under construction.5.In ___ , an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald’ s restaurantin France.A. 1998B. 1999C. 2000D. 2001Passage 2Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory (印第安人保护区) that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native Americanchildren then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the timehe was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left schoolfor two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete( 运动员) in several sports,including baseball, running and football. He won many awards for hisathletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U. SOlympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race.The decathlon hasten track and field and filed events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. Whent he King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his twoSir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.gold medals, he said,Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “ Thanks, King. ”6.From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in .A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD.Sweden7.According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT ___ .A. fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing8.Jim Thorpe started to play sports .A. before he was nine years old.B. when he was 16 years oldC. when he was 24 years oldD. before his parents passedaway9.The word decathlon in paragraph 3 probably means _ .A. jumpingB. five track and field eventsC. throwingD. ten track and field events10.Which of the flowing is NOT TRUE?A.In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B.Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C.Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D.In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. Passage 3It can be really frustrating（使人沮丧的） for an overweight person to goto a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “ skinny ” members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are , well, zaftig.It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up withthat?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering（迎合） to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “ skinny ” people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommendedf unctional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs（六块腹肌）. （79）They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves,or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted( 有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80)Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it ’s a step in the right direction.11.The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12.We can infer from the first two paragraphs that __ .A.most large gym chains really want members to show up frequentlyB.overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC.regular gyms don ’ t accept overweight people to participate intheir programsD.overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13.What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A. To achieve functional fitness.B. To build six-pack abs.C. To look like a fitness model.D. To be able to run longdistances.14.As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A.The machines are designed for larger people.B.Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C.There are larger mirrors on the walls.D.The training goals are more realistic.15.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Improving Women ’ s Self -confidence through ExercisesB.The Traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its CustomersC.The Fitness Industry Is Look for New DirectionsD.Specialization Gyms Designed for Overweight People16.When Bill came in, I with my friends.A. will talkB. talkC. was talkingD. have talked17.John made her __ him everything about her plan for the trip.A. to tellB. tellC. toldD. tells18.Lucy goes to school by bike every day, she?A. doesB. doesn'tC. isD. isn't19.I can help _whether we should go without raincoats.A. wonderB. to wonderC. wonderingD. wondered20.Never in her life ____ in such an important party, where she saw so many pop stars.A.

5月北京市成人英语三级真题
5月北京市成人英语三级真题2014.05.10Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter m the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten, usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is “morally wrong”. This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.(76) Pre.school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr, Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child. It later became known tha t “every” meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line—equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.(77) Some critics say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results wereannounced from a study of 9.to.l 1.year.olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended pre.school had better literacy (读写能力), language, maths and science skills. And two years of pre.kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school.based early education.1.Kindergarten in rich countries other than America usually begins at the age of _______A. eightB. sevenC. sixD. four2.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Poor pre.school kids have a larger vocabulary than rich kids.B. President Obama believes that early education can solve all economic and social problems.C. Rich pre.school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.D. President Obama’s education secretary thinks it is morally wrong to let kids start kindergarten early.3.Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?A. There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.B. New Jersey has created a new Head Start to help disadvantaged kids.C. Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.D. Two years of pre.kindergarten were better than one.4.The phrase “single out” in the last paragraph means _______.A. chooseB. think aboutC. countD. depend on5.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Secondary EducationB. Pre.school EducationC. Poor Kids’EducationD. Rich Kids’ EducationPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Humans may not have landed on Mars (火星) just yet, but that isn’t shopping a European company from devising a plan to send four people to the Red Planet within the next few years. (78) This project, called Mars One, aims to send a small group of people to Mars in 2022 and eventually establish a permanent colony on the planet.“Everything we need to go to Mars exists,” said Mars One co.founder Bas Lansdorp in March 2014. “We have the rockets to send people to Mars, the equipment to land on Mars, the robots to prepare the settlement for humans. For a one.way mission, all the technology exists.” Yet the four astronauts (宇航员) chosen for the trip will be stuck on Mars—forever. And despite Mars One’s thorough planning, there are a number of challenges that may prevent the mission from ever taking place. (79) The biggest road block could be the missi on’s huge cost ($6 billion). However, Lansdorp is confident that Mars One will be able to fund the project by selling the broadcast rights for the mission and subsequent experiences living on the planet.Those broadcast rights will also play a part in helping to select the people who will be sent to Mars. Lansdorp said the company will hold a selection process similar to a reality show. Lansdorp is expecting at least 1 million applications from people around the world. In additon to the cost, several other potential problems could inhibit (阻止) the mission to Mars.“It’s even more challenging to send people there with life support, with food, with air, with all the other things like books, entertainment, means of communication and of providing for the ir own resources for a long stay on Mars,” said Adam Baker. senior lecturer in space engineering at Kingston University in London. “The sheer size of the rockets you’d need to do this would be absolutely colossal.”6. According to Project Mars One, humans could send four people to Mars within the next _______ years.A. sevenB. eightC. tenD. six7.According to Bas Lansdorp, which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. For a one.way trip to Mars, all the technology exists.B. He could not come up with the fund for Mars One.C. We humans have the rockets to send people to Mars.D. We humans have the equipment to land on Mars.8.According to the passage, all the following statements are TRUE EXCEPT that _______.A. a competition process will be held to select the four astronautsB. the cost of Mars One could go as much as $6 billionC. if it goes as planned, we could expect to watch Mars One on TVD.the four astronauts could return to Earth after a few years’stay on Mars9. The word “colossal” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. very largeB. very smallC. mediumD. average10. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Ready for a Round Trip to MarsB. Ready for a Short Visit to MarsC. Ready for a One.way Trip to MarsD. Ready for a Walk on MarsPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:When the United States Congress created Yellowstone National Park in 1872, the goal was to set aside a place where Americans could enjoy the beauty of nature for years to come. Now, 142 years later, there are hundreds of national parks across the country, and technology is changing the way people experience them. Should park visitors be able to use cell phones, or should their use be restricted?“Connectivity presents a real challenge to all of us.” Al Nash says. He is a public affairs officer at Yellowstone National Park. He says cell phone service at Yellowstone is available in parts of the park with stores and campgrounds. This makes it easy for visitors to share photos of their trip on social networking sites and to stay in touch with friends and family members. (80) If a nark visitor is hurt or in danger, cell phones make it easier to get help. Some say the ability to download applications that provide information about plants and animals in the park can enrich a visitor’s experience.Others say cell phones disturb people’s enjoyment of our national parks. In their vi ew, cell phone towers are an eyesore, and they’d rather hear the sound of birds than the ring of an incoming call. Can you imagine looking out a peaceful lake or field of grass only to be disturbed by a person shouting into their phone, “Can you hear me no w?”Nash says Yellowstone tries to strike a balance. “Ultimately, our job is to let visitors understand and enjoy nature better while protecting what people find special about Yellowstone, and one of those things that’s special is the ability to get aw ay fromthe hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of one’s daily life.”11.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Which U.S. National Park Has the Most Visitors?B. Should National Parks Allow the Use of Cell Phones?C. What Did Yellowstone Do to Enrich Park Visitors’Experience?D. Can Technology Transform the Way People Experience Nature?12.National parks were established _______.A. to show respect to former presidentsB. to raise public awareness about climate changeC. to preserve areas of natural beautyD. to create job opportunities13.According to the passage, which of the following statements about the cell phone service at Yellowstone is TRUE?A. It is limited to certain areas in the park.B. It is available everywhere in the park.C. It is not available in the park.D. It is available to visitors at a fee.14.The word “eyesore” in the third paragraph probably means _______.A. something unpleasant to look atB. something harmful to healthC. beautiful sceneD. serious threat15.What’s the position of Yellowstone on cell phone use?A. Supportive.B. Neutral.C. Negative.D. Doubtful.。

北京地区成人英语三级考试真题
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2016.05.07Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage i s followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of t hem there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Ans wer SheetPassage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a lar ger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use. If Governor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will became the second state, afte r Hawaii, to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other to bacco products. More than 100 cities in the U.S., including New York and Boston, have already raised the age limit.A week ago, the California Assembly approved the measure，which-in addition to raising the age limit-treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products，expands smoke-free areas，increases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly’s vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased th e age to by tobacco products to 21.California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying（游说）from tobacco interests. The measure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in policing p eople’s personal choices. “I don’t smoke. I don’t encourage my ch ildren to,”said Republican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. “But they’re adults, and it’s our job to treat our citizens as adults,”But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legall y purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. “This will save the medical system millions of dollars,”said Democratic Assem blyman Jim Wood. (76) “It will save thousands of lives.” A 2015 s tudy by the Institute of Medicine “found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nationwide, tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today’s teens reached adulthood. I n addition, there would be 223,000 fewer premature(过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer.”1. Which of the following is the first state to raise smoking age to 21?A. California.B. Hawaii.C. New York.D. Washington.2. The California law includes all the following measures EXCEPT ____A. enlarging no-moking areasB. allowing counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettesC. increasing smoking bansD. punishing parents who encourage their children to smoke3. The word policing in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.A. enrichingB. controllingC. understandingD. protecting4. Who is against the bill?A. Governor Jerry Brown.B. Assemblyman Donald Wagner.C. Assemblyman Jim Wood.D. The mayor of San Francisco.5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for the passage?A California Lawmakers Vote to Raise Smoking Age to 21B. San Francisco Increased the Age to Buy Tobacco Products to 21C. Hawaii has Already Raised the Age to buy tobaccoD.A California Bill Faces Opposition from Many RepublicansPassage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Dr. James Barry was the first woman in England to go to medical school. When she was growing up, women could not go to medical school. (77) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man.No one knows Dr. Barry’s real name, her birth date, or her family’s background. Some records show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at theUniversity of Edinburgh.James Barry’s classmates made fun of her because she didn’t have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At het age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later, she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the army physical examination.For the next 45 years, Dr James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Everyone admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. (78) At that time. England had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was soon known as the best doctor and surgeon in the governor’s daughter, and later she became the governor’s personal doctor. People admired Dr Barry, but she also had a reputation as a troublemaker. If people talked about her high voice or tiny figure, she became very angry. She was an excellent swordsman, and she started fights often.6. According to the passage, Dr. Barry was made fun of because she _____.A. had a low voiceB. had a funny beardC. was tallD. was short7. Which of the following about James Barry is a fact?A. She had a rich father.B. She became a medical student in 1810.C. She was born in Edinburgh.D. She was a royal princess.8. Which of the following about James Barry is NOT TRUE?A. She was a troublemaker.B. She worked in many foreign countries.C. She made great contributions to the British Army.D. She was the best doctor in London.9. Dr, Barry was not happy when people talked about her ____.A. family.B. job.C. university.D. voice10. The word swordsman in paragraph 4 probably means _____.A. someone who is skilled at fighting with a swordB. someone who is skilled at fighting with a gunC. someone who often fights with other peopleD. someone who often makes trouble for other peoplePassage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage: Chokwe Selassie is on a mission to help drivers avoid potholes (路面坑洼). The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his mission on a re cent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the s treet in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. “I decided I was g oing to do something about the pothole problem in my city,”Chokwe says. His solution: an app(手机应用) that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez. Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks, “When the app detects a pothole, it is highlighted(突出显示) in red,”Chokwe says. “And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you”Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. “It works by using the city’s311 call system, so i t uses information already stored in a database,”Chokwe says. (79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems-which include potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined th at focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype (原型)。

But he didn’t h ave lave or friendship because he couldn’t buy them. All his life he used his money to control everything and every one around him. In the end, he lost control of everything, even himself.Howard Hughes was born in 1905 in Houston, Texas. His father started the Hughes Tool Company. He was a workaholic （工作狂）and made a lot of money. He bought everything he wanted. He even gave money to schools so Howard could get into th em. From his father, Howard learned to be a successful but merciless businessman. Hughes’s mother, Allene also had a big influence on his life. Howard was her only child. Sh e protected him and gave him everything. Unfortunately Allen e had mental problems.

Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive. Even if global warning were to right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken t o address the problem, the reefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）.(78) The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “the rainforests of the sea", because they provide shelter for a wi de variety of sea life. In addition, the reefs serve as b arriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powe rful storms.Coral are used in medical research for cures to disea ses. They are key to local economies as well, since the r eefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other busin esses, bringing in billions of dolllars.（79）Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to dr ive out the algae（水藻）. Then the corals turn white in a process called “ble aching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage. In 1998, whe n sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded his tory, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severebleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of c onditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover.Although reefs face other threats from pollution, indus trial activities, and overfishing, it is global climate chan ge that most concerns scientists. Scientists remain hopeful that it’s not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experiments to accomplish that goal.6. Which of the following is the best title for thepassage?A.

But nowhere in history have students ban ned（禁止）bottled water. Until nowThe bottled water ban, which Parted on just a few campuses, has now spread nationwide to mor e than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completelybanned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some hav e taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water w astes money and harms the environment. They say that bottle d water is unnecessary because public water supplies in theU.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains an d reusable bottles with easy access（获取）to filling stations are a better choice.An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plasti c bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water aday costs each person 49 cents annually, while drinking f rom plastic containers costs $I,400 per year. Plastic bottle s contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causes dep ression, but in large doses can even lead to death.The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations. The makers of bo ttled water see the movement as a threat. (80) They argue that plastic bottles make UP a small portion of the nati on’s total waste. It's unfair to single out （单独挑出）their product when so many other items are packaged in pla stic containers. Plus, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that arc also sold at school.,11.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A.Many universities ban or restrict the sale of bottle d water.B.Many states ban or restrict the sale of bottled wat er.C.The bottled water industry is concerned about its de creasing sales.D.Many people are opposed to the bottled water ban.12. According to Ban the Bottle, drinking bottled wate r costs _____ dollars per year。

北京成人三级英语真题及答案
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试真题(A卷)Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)Directions:There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Questions1to5are based on the following passage: According to a recent survey,employees in many companies today work longer hours than employees did in1979.They also take shorter vacations than employees in1979.It seems that Americans are working harder today than ever before.Or are they?A management consultant.Bill Meyer,decided to find out.For three days,he observed an investment banker hard at work.Meyer wrote down everything the banker did during his long workday. At the end of the three-day period,Meyer reviewed the banker's activities with him.What did they find out?They discovered that the man spent80percent of his time doing unnecessary work. For example,he attended unnecessary meetings,made redundant (多余的)telephone calls,and spent time packing and unpacking his two big briefcases.(76)Apparently,many people believe that the more time a person spends at work,the more he or she accomplishes.When employers evaluate employees,they often consider the amount of time on the job in addition to job performance.Employees know this. Although many working people can do their job effectively during a regular40-hour work week,they feel they have to spend more time on the job after normal working hours so that the people who can promote them see them.A group of headhunters(猪头)were asked their opinion about a situation.They had a choice of two candidates for an executive position with an important company.The candidates had similar qualifications for the job.For example,they were both reliable.One could do the job well in a40-hour work week. The other would do the same job in an80-hour work week just as well.According to a headhunting expert,the80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job.The time this candidate spends on the job may encourage other employees to spend more time at work, too.Employers believe that if the employees stay at work later, they may actually do more work.However,the connection between time and productivity(生产率)is not always positive.(77)In fact,many studies indicate that after a certain point,anyone's productivity and creativity begin to decrease.Some employees are not willingto spend so much extra,unproductive time at the office.Once they finish their work satisfactorily,they want to relax and enjoy themselves.For these people,the solution is to find a company that encourages people to do both.1.What is the main idea of this passage?A.Many people work long hours but do not always do a lot of work.B.Most people can get more work done by working longer hours.C.Most Americans work80hours a week,and some work even longer.D.People can make more money by working longer hours.2.The management consultant wanted to find out______.A.how hard the investment banker worked during his work hoursB.when people spent time doing unnecessary work in their officeC.if people needed vacation after working hard for a certain period of timeD.whether Americans were really working harder than they had done before3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.The more time a person spends at work,the more he or she accomplishes.B.Employers do not judge their employees'job performanceaccording to the amount of working time.C.Some people work more than40hours a week in the hope of getting promotion.D.All employees are willing to spend extra time at work.4.The80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job because employers believe______.A.that he is more reliableB.his example would lead other employees to work longer hoursC.he has better qualificationsD.he could encourage other employees to do a better job5.The expression“to do both”in the last paragraph is______.A.to finish their work satisfactorily and relax and enjoy themselvesB.to pay attention to both performance and productivityC.to work long hours and have short vacationsD.to relax and enjoy themselves quite frequently Passage2Questions6to10are based on the following passage:Many private institutions of higher education around the country are in danger.Not all will be saved,and perhaps not all deserve to be saved.There are low-quality schools just as there are low-quality businesses.We have no obligation to save them simply because they exist.But many thriving institutionsthat deserve to continue are threatened.They are doing a fine job educationally,but they are caught in a financial difficulty,with no way to reduce rising costs or increase revenues(收入)significantly.Raising fees doesn't bring in more revenue,for each time fees go up,the enrollment(注册人数)goes down,or the amount that must be given away in student aid goes up.(78)Schools are bad businesses,whether public or private,not usually because of bad management but because of the nature of the business.They lose money on every customer, and they can go bankrupt either from too few students or too many students.Even a very good college is a very bad business. It is such colleges,thriving but threatened,that I worry about. Low enrollment is not their chief problem.Even with full enrollments,they may go under.Efforts to save them,and preferably to keep them private,are a national necessity.(79) There is no basis for arguing that private schools are bound to be better than public schools.There are plentiful examples to the contrary.Anyone can name state universities and colleges that rank as the finest in the nation and the world. It is now inevitable that public institutions will be dominant, and therefore diversity(多样性)is a national necessity. Diversity in the way we support schools tends to give us a healthy diversity in the forms of education.In an imperfectsociety such as ours,uniformity of education throughout the nation could be dangerous.In an imperfect society,diversity is a positive good.Eager supporters of public higher education know the importance of keeping private higher education healthy.6.In the passage,the author asks the public to support_____.A.private higher education in generalB.public higher education in generalC.high-quality private universities and collegesD.high-quality state universities and colleges7.According to the passage,schools are bad businesses because of____.A.the nature of schoolB.poor teachersC.bad managementD.too few students8.The phrase“go under”in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to_____.A.have low feesB.get into difficultiesC.do a bad job educationallyD.have low teaching standards9.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.There are many cases indicating that private schools are superior to public schools.B.The author thinks diversity of education is preferable touniformity of education.C.A high-quality university is always a good business.D.Each time fees are raised,the enrollment goes up.10.In the author's opinion,the way that can save private schools lies in____.A.full enrollmentB.raising feesC.reducing student aidD.national support Passage3Questions11to15are based on the following passage:The fourth-graders at Chicago's McCormick Elementary School don't know Chinese is supposed to be hard to learn.For most, who speak Spanish at home,it's becoming their third language. They've been hearing and using Chinese words since nursery,and it's natural to give a"ni hao"when strangers enter the classroom,“It's really fun!”says Miranda Lucas,taking a break from a lesson that includes a Chinese interview with Jackie Chan.“I'm teaching my mom to speak Chinese.”The classroom scene at McCormick is unusual,but it may soon be a common phenomenon in American schools,where Chinese is rapidly becoming the hot new ernment officials have long wanted more focus on useful languages like Chinese, and pressure from them—as well as from business leaders, politicians,and parents—has produced a quick growth in thenumber of programs.Chicago city officials make their best effort to include Chinese in their public schools.Their program has grown to include3,000students in20schools,with more schools on a waiting list.Programs have also spread to places like Los Angeles,New York City,and North Carolina.Supporters see knowledge of the Chinese language and culture as an advantage in a global economy where China is growing in importance.“This is an interesting way to begin to engage with the world's next superpower,”says Michael Levine,director of education at the Asia Society,which has started five new public high schools that offer Chinese.“Globalization has already changed the arrangements in terms of how children today are going to think about their careers.The question is when,not whether,the schools are going to adjust”(80)The number of students learning Chinese is tiny compared with how many study Spanish or French.But one report shows that before-college enrollment(报名人数)nearly quadrupled between1992and2002,from6,000to24,000.Despite the demand, though,developing programs isn't easy.And the No.one difficulty,everyone agrees,is having enough teachers.

北京地区成人英语考试历年真题
2013年真题及答案Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:For 20 months the wrecked Costa Concordia has been lying on its side near the coast of Giglio，a small Italian island. But on Tuesday, as part of the largest salvage（打捞）operation ever conducted，the large ship was finally moved to the upright position. The next step is for the vessel to be removed from the area entirely.The Costa Concordia is twice the weight of the Titanic. The ship itself didn’t budge（稍微移动）for the first three hours of the operation, Sergio Girotto told reporters. He and other engineers worked for 19 hours before Concordia was declared completely upright.The Costa Concordia capsized on January 13, 2012，after its captain, Francesco Schettino，brought the ship too close to the shore. The ship hit coastal rocks, which caused serious damage and allowed water to pour in. (76) Most of the 4,200 people on board made it to land safely, but more than 30 people were killed in the disaster. Two people remain missing. The Concordia’s captain is currently on trial for causing a shipwreck and abandoning his ship.The operation to right the ship is called parbuckling. While parbuckling is a standard operation to right capsized ships，it has never before been used on such a large ship.（77）Workers had been waiting for favorable weather conditions to undertake the operation. On Monday，authorities gave the final go-ahead.The process was expected to take no more than 12 hours. But problems with the large system of steel chains caused delays. Engineers worked through the night using cables and metal water tanks to roll the ship onto special platforms.The Concordia is expected to be pulled away from Giglio in the spring of 2014 and turned into scrap metal (废金属). The ship’s owner, Costa Cruises, will pay for the recovery, which has already cost more than $800 million.1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Ship Safety ManagementB. Shipwrecks: an Environmental ThreatC. The Costa Concordia DisasterD. The Costa Concordia Salvage2. The word “capsized”in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to ______A. turned overB. delayedC. departedD. set sail3. According to the passage, the Concordia’s captain has been charged with causing the crash and ______.A. drug useB. alcohol abuseC. abandoning his postD. setting fire4. According to the passage，which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The Costa Concordia is three times the weight of the Titanic.B. Engineers in Italy have successfully righted the wrecked Concordia after an operation that lasted around 12 hours.C. The salvage operation went ahead despite bad weather conditions.D. As a common means of righting wrecked ships, parbuckling had never been carried out on a vessel of the Concordia’s size.5. What will happen to the Concordia eventually?A. It will be pulled away to be broken up for scrap metal.B. It will be repaired and put into use again.C. It will be turned into a museum for tourists.D. It will be sunk to the ocean floor.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:(78) Would you risk your life for a country that considered you a second-class citizen? Would you join a military that asked you to risk sacrificing your life but separated you from other soldiers because of the color of your skin? That is precisely what the Tuskegee Airmen did. They were brave, intelligent, African-American men and women who foughtfor the United States in World War II.In 1940, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt agreed to allow African Americans to fly airplanes in the military. Before that, African Americans could only serve in the Armed Forces as part of the ground troops. The first African American airmen reported for duty in 1941. They began their training outside of Tuskegee, Alabama. (79) The soldiers were completely separated bv race and the two races could not communicate. About 450 African American pilots finished the training. These men were the original Tuskegee Airmen.The Tuskegee Airmen had an amazing record. They did not lose any of the bombers they wereescorting (护航) When the war was over in 1945，the Tuskegee Airmen were heroes. But when they returned to America, they were appalled to find out that they were still treated like second-class citizens. They faced the same segregation (种族隔离）and discrimination (歧视）as they had before they began their training.Frederick Henry, one of the original Tuskegee Airmen, lives in Detroit, Michigan. Because he was from the North，he would often forget the segregation rules of the South. Once, Henry was on a bus alone with a white bus driver. Soon, after the two had talked for a while，a wave of other passengers came on the bus. A problem arose when some white passengers were still standing, which was against the rules. Henry was put off the bus, even though he was the first person to board the bus and had paid his fare.One thing did change, however. In 1948，President Harry S. Truman signed an executive order prohibiting segregation in the military. Eventually, the Tuskegee Airmen were officially thanked for their amazing efforts in the war.6. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. American Soldiers in World War IIB. American Civil Rights MovementC. The Tuskegee AirmenD. Racial Discrimination in the U. S.7. What docs the word “appalled”in the third paragraph probably mean?A. Reluctant.B. Pleased.C. Shocked.D. Relieved,8. It can be inferred from the passage that Henry ___________.A refused to give up his seat to a white passengerB. refused to pay his bus fareC. had a fight with the bus driverD. was the last person to board the bus.9. In __________, President Harry S. Truman ordered to end military segregation.A. 1940B. 1941C. 1945D. 194810. According to the passage, which of the following statements about the Tuskegee Airmen is TRUE?A In World War II，they never lost a bomber to enemy fire.B. They were the first group of black soldiers ever trained by the ground troops.C. They were not subjected to racial discrimination in the army.D. They were already soldiers in the ground troops before their training at Tuskegee began. Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Coffee is a powerful drink. On a personal level, it helps keep us awake and active. (80) On a much general level, it has helped shape our history and continues to shape our culture.Coffee plants grow wild in parts of Africa and were probably used by travelling tribes (部落）for thousands of years, but it wasn’t until the 1400s that people figured out they could roast its seeds. “Then it really took off,”said historian Mark Pendergrast—author of Uncommon Grounds: the History of Coffee and How It Transformed Our World. By the 1500s, the drink had spread to coffeehouses across the Arab world within another 150 years, it took Europe by storm. “It actually had a major impact on the rise of business,”Pendergrast says. Coffeehouses became a spot not just to enjoy a cup but to exchange ideas.The insurance industry was founded hundreds of years ago in one of London’s 2,000 coffeehouses. Literature, newspapers and even the works of great composers like Bach and Beethoven were also inspired in coffeehouses.It is often said that after the Boston Tea Party of 1773, when American colonists (殖民者）attacked British tea ships and threw large boxes of tea into the harbor, Americans everywhere switched over to drinking coffee. “There’s a lot of truth to the story, I found,”Pendergrast says. He mentions a letter John Adams wrote to his wife, Abigail, in which theFounding Father declares his love of tea but says he will have to learn to accept coffee instead, because drinking tea had become unpatriotic (不爱国的).For all the upsides coffee has brought the modem world, it also brought its fair share of downsides, too. Europeans carried coffee with them as they colonized various parts of the world, and this frequently meant they made people into slaves in order to grow it.11. According to the passage，which of the following has nothing to do with coffee?A. Literature.B. Newspapers.C. The insurance industry.D. The oil industry.12. According to the passage，which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. The Boston Tea Party took place in 1773.B. Europeans figured out ways to use coffee during the 1670s.C. During the 1770s, more and more Americans began to drink coffee*D. Coffee is a refreshing drink.13. The author of the book believes that__________.A. drinking coffee was unpatrioticB. 2000 insurance companies were set up hundreds of years agoC. Europeans were responsible for the existence of slaveryD. coffee actually influenced the rise of business14. The phrase “took off”in the second paragraph means “_________”.A. dropped to the groundB. became very successfulC. removed its coatD. went away suddenly15. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. When Coffee Became PopularB. Coffee Is a Powerful DrinkC. How Coffee Influenced the Course of HistoryD.

2013年5月北京地区成人英语三级试题及答案解析
Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages inthis part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decideon the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Is that 6 a.m. workout getting in the way of good sleep? Don’t think your fat cells won’t notice. A new study published in The Annals of Internal Medicine (a medical journal) finds that inadequate shut-eye has a harmful effect on fat cells, reducing their ability to respond to insulin (胰岛素) by about 30 percent. Over the long-term, this decreased response could set the stage for type-2 diabetes(a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood),fatty liver disease and weight gain.The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there’s “an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good, healthy body weight,” says sleep expert Helene Emsellem, director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase, Maryland. (76) But Americans don’t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night. More than 1 in 5 of us, according to a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night, on average.So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper? Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young,thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hour s a night,” says Brady.Then, a month later, they came back for four additional nights—but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit,researchers got a sample of their fat. (77) Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “I was very surprised to be honest,” he says.Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin.“Fat cells are actually your friend,” he says. “They’re there to store lipids (血脂).” when lipids stay inside the cells, your body can utilize the fat when you’re exercising or sleeping or going about your day. “However, when fat cells start to become insulin resistant, the lipids start to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream,” Brady says.1. According to the passage, lack of sleepfor a long while can probably lead to all of the following EXCEPT_____.A. heart diseaseB. weight gainC. diabetesD. liver disease2. The main idea of the third paragraph is_____.A. how to write a medical research paperB. how to avoid sleep lossC. how the research was conductedD. how to conduct a medical experiment3. What does the word “leach” in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Leap. C. Lean.B. Lead. D. Leak.4. Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to the passage?A. We will be in trouble if our fat cells become less responsive to insulin.B. More and more studies are done to study the link between sleep and weight.C. More than 20% of Americans are not getting enough sleep.D. Fat cells are there to help us maintain a good health.5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Poor Sleep May Lead to Too Much Stored Fat and DiseaseB. Sleep Experts Had Exciting Findings in a Fat StudyC. Americans Should Have More Than Six Hours of SleepD. Bad Things Happen if Fat Cells Become Our Friend1.【答案】A。
