第二部分英语知识运用参考译文芝加哥大学有一个特别的实验室只有在晚上才繁忙。

这是一个进行梦的研究的实验室。

在这里研究人员对做梦的人进行研究。

他们从研究发现中总结出每天晚上每人都做3—7个梦,尽管通常情况下一个人只能记住一个或忘记他所做的全部的梦。

当被研究对象睡眠时,特殊的机器记录下他们的脑电波、眼球的运动及表示梦结束的身体的运动。

令人惊奇的是所有的被研究对象都睡得很熟。

观察人员发现人在做梦之前身体会不安地移动。

一旦梦开始了,身体会放松,眼部则开始活跃起来,就像帷幕已经拉开,演出即将开始。

当机器表明梦已结束时,蜂鸣器会叫醒睡眠者。

他会站起来,记录下他的梦,然后继续睡,或许会做更多的梦。

研究人员发现如果一个做梦的人在他的梦结束之后马上被叫醒,那么他一般能够回忆出整个的梦。

如果他再睡上5分钟,对于梦的记忆就会逐渐消失。

这就是为什么大多数人晚上做很多梦,但早上却几乎都不记得了。

答案及解析26.C【解析】此题考查对这篇文章的主要内容的宏观掌握。

本篇是关于研究人员在实验室里研究人做梦的类型。

a t n i g h t符合题意。

27.B【解析】联系上一句“在芝加哥大学的一个特殊实验室里”。

只有B符合题意。

28.A【解析】“s t u d y i n g”在文中作伴随状语,B、C、D项则不合适。

29.A【解析】实验证明每人每夜都会做3—7个梦。

其他选项与题意不合。

30.D【解析】从上下文可以得出此处应填表转折关系的词。

t h e r e f o r e因此;i f如果;d e s p i不管,均不合题意。

31.B【解析】本句意为“但在日常生活中,一个人可能记不住或只记住一个梦。

公共英语三级(PETS3)模拟真题试卷附答案(2)

公共英语三级(PETS3)模拟真题试卷附答案(2)2016年公共英语三级(PETS3)模拟真题试卷(附答案)[D]all of the aboveText 3Fishing adds only about one percent to the global economy, but on a regional basis it can contribute extremely to human survival. Marine fisheries contribute more t the world’s supply of protein than beef, poultry or any other animal source.Fishing typically does not need land ownership, and because it remains, generally, open to all, itis often the employer of last resort in the developing world an occupation when there are no otherchoices. Worldwide, about 200 million people rely on fishing for their livelihoods. Within Southeast Asia alone, over five million people fish full time. In northern Chile forty percent of the populationlives off the ocean. In Newfoundland most employment came from fishing or servicing that indus-try--until the collapse of the cod fisheries in the early 1990s that left tens of thousands of people outof work.Though debates over the conservation of natural resources are often cast as a conflict betweenjobs and the environment ,the restoration of fish populations would i fact boost employment. MichaelP. Sissenwine and Andrew A. Rosenberg of the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service have esti-mated that if depleted species were allowed to rebuild to their long term potential, their sustainable use would add about $8 billion to the U.S. gross domestic product and provide about 300,000 jobs. Iffish poupulations were restored and properly managed, about twenty million metric tons could be added to: the world’s annual catch. But restoration of ecological balance, fiscalprofitability (收益) andeconomic security will require a continual reduction in the capacity of the commercial fishing industryso that wild populations can recover.The necessary reductions in fishing workforce need not come at the expense of jobs. Governments could increase employment and reduce the pressure on fish populations by guiding subsidies away from highly mechanised ships. For each $1,000,000 of investment, industrial scale fishing operations require only one to five people, while small scale fisheries would employ between 60 and 3,000. Industrial fishing itself threatens tens of millions of fishermen working on a small scale by depleting the fish on which they depend for subsistence.56. The animal source which provides the most protein for human being is________[A]beef[B]fish[C]pork[D]chicken57. Paragraph 2 indicates that________[A]most of man’s employment is from fishing[B]man can always turn to fishing for employment[C]forty percent of Chileans live on fishing boats or ships[D]fishing has been the biggest industry in Newfoundland58. In the conflict between jobs and the environment,the author takes sides with those who are in favour of________[A]increasing the annual catch[B]creating more jobs[C]getting greater fiscal profitability[D]conserving natural resources59. The balance between jobs and the environment can bekept if____[A]fishing capacity is further increased[B]fishing jobs are further increased[C]fewer well-equipped fishing ships are used[D]fewer species are allowed to rebuild60. The passage suggests that making less use of modern technology may________[A]reduce pressure on fish populations[B]threaten the world’s annual catch[C]increase government's investment[D]cost tens of thousands of fishermen’s jobsPaula:The furore is determined by the actions of the present day. The responsibility we have for the fu-ture begins when we recognize that we ourselves create the future-that the future is not somethingimposed upon us by fate or other forces beyond our control. We ourselves build the future boththrough what we do and what we do not do.Mrs. John:The future will see more unbelievable things. In the future, people will be able to predict theirperformance from the strength of the brain’s electrical activity. Doctor Kramer has found that thestrength of the brain’s electrical activity can be measured through the scalp (头皮). Bosses couldmeasure brain activity through the scalp and tell whether a worker is performing well, working hard,or too tired to do the job properly.Mary:In the new century, things around us will be more fascinating. The chemical element in the heart issaid to increase your desire for fat, when is stimulated. This means that disturbances of thischemical ge-latin can lead to overeating. Doctor Sarah Leibowits presented an academic paper suggesting that the ap-petite for fat rich food can be controlled through drugs that block the effects of gelatin.Judy:In the future our life will change dramatically. It is quite certain that computers will play animportant part in our life. You will visit your doctor, and find that he uses a computer screen andvisual information about your condition, instead of his text books. Computers in your home will enable you to answer interactive questions about your health and show the alternative results whichwill affect you if you act in a certain way.Carrie:In the future, computers will change the way the doctors diagnose and treat their patients. Alsodoctors will change their traditional notion of medicine. Although pills for tension, heart conditions, being overweight and other life threatening conditions are prescribed by western doctors, most doctors now require patients to focus on healthy way of living by changing diets and doingmore exercise as a means to keep fit.Now match each of the items (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61.

Please write a notice entitled "No Smoking" to put on the carriages of a train. You should use approximately 100 words. It may include the following points:1) no smoking in the carriages. Smoking is only permitted in the Smoking Area.2) smoking is not only bad for smokers' health but also bad for people around them.3) anyone who smokes in the carriages will be fined.Part B67.

T-shirts are worn on the playground, on the beach or in town. They can also be worn for work. Because the T-shirts are relatively inexpensive,smart,comfortable and convenient to wear, they have become one of the newest ideas in fashion over the world. Although T-shirts are now available in a wide variety of bright materials and styles,the most popular kind is the traditional cotton T-shirts with a slogan or a picture printed on the front.AT-shirt may bear a single word,a popular phrase,pictures of sportsmen, or an advertisement.

From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities.When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning, Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams' daily paper butsoft mouth specially evolved for the safe carrying of huntedcreatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, neverWilliams was a railwayman, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams' slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previouslyA curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William's hand.

There are different forms of colour blindness. A man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully. For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal to each other. A green light may mean “Advance” and a red light may mean “Danger! Keep back!”, You can see what will happen ifsomebody thinks that red is green! Colour blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, These help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colours. There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside. Look round you and try to seeBirds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colours. As far as we know, bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs cannot see colours asseem grey and dull to us, but to insects they may appear beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see.

It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolicverbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think,rously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fearThere are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches,instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them.

Markyour answers on your ANSWER SHEET.If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be passive smokers without realising it.Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements alwaysmanly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associatedwith the great open air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better off if smoking were banned altogether.Smoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seem to get right. After a day's hard work, the thing I want to do most is smoking. It can be even better with a cup of coffee. It's so enjoyable and relaxing that it relieves stresses of every day life. So why botherNow match each of the people (1 to 5) to the appropriate61. Hadley C63.65.

Worry can keep you awake, tossing and 26 in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually 27 asleep. When you wake up, you don' t feel 28 , but tired and worn out and 29 to face a new day. Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article 30 Stress and Sleep, 31 that stress and lack of sleep are directly 32 . Dr. Winkle says, "the more we worry, the 33 we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with 34 If we can find a way to get a good night' s sleep," he 35 ,"we can often find the 36 to deal with what' s worrying us. " So, what is a good night' s sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy 37 a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount, 38 strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache 39 of making you feel more refreshed. Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselves a short 40 and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise 41 in the day should help you to feel physically as well as 42 tired.

Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. Text 1 An embarrassing experience It was the small hours of the morning when we reached London Airport. I had cabled London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunate happening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question ,"have you read this?" I replied with extreme foolishness, "Yes, hundreds of times. " "And you have nothing to declare?""Nothing. " "How long have you been out of this country?""About three months. " "And during that time you have acquired nothing?""Nothing but what is on the list I have given you. "He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected. "Where did you get that watch?" I could have kicked myself. Two days before, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey. I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement. "It is not a question of confiscation," he said, "there is a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?" It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband; then he began to search my luggage. 46. When did the writer arrive at London airport? [A] In the early morning. [B] Late at night. [C] At noon. [D] Late in the morning. 47. What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer? [A] He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions. [B] He must have noticed the writer's ugly watch. [C] He wanted to embarrass the writer. [D] He must have noticed the writer's tiredness. 48. What did the writer think of the watch he bought in the market? [A] He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex. [B] He found the watch useful though it was very cheap. [C] He didn't like the watch at all. [D] He was indifferent to the watch. 49. What must have happened to the writer in the end? [A] He must have spent a long time at the customs and must have been let go without any punishment. [B] He must have been given a fine as a punishment. [C] His Rolex must have been confiscated. [D] His cheap watch must have been confiscated. 50. What do you think is the tone of the story? [A] Humorous. [B] Sarcastic. [C] Solemn. [D] Matter-of-fact. Text 2 You must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life. What if you say it first and your partner doesn' t love you back? Or if they do say it but you don't feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerve-racking(紧张) and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn' t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand first? "A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist Sidney Crown. "But love is seldom equal. " All relationships go through power struggles but, he says ,if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. "That feeling of ' I' ve always loved you more' may be subverted(*,破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(⼤声争吵). In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. "The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings," says educational psychologist lngrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says ' I love you' first may also be the one who says ' I' m bored with you' first. " Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying it."Is it said when they' re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is ' Please don' t be unfaithful to me' ? By saying I love you' ,they really say' Do you love me?' If so, wouldn' t it just be more honest to say that?" Collins agrees that intention is everything."It' s not what is said, but how it' s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker. "51. What is the main idea of this passage? [A]The importance of "I love you" [B]The meaning of "I love you" [C]The time of saying "I love you" [D]The place of saying "I love you" 52. In the first sentence the author means that__________. [A]it is easy to say "I love you" [B]it is hard to say "I love you" [C]we have many troubles in our life [D]people usually do not know when to say "I love you" 53. According to the expert, a good relationship should be__________. [A]fair and equal [B]fair and kind [C]powerful and equal [D]confident and fair 54. In the third paragraph, the phrase "with the upper hand" means__________. [A]being low in spirit [B]having only one hand [C]being active [D]being passive 55. What is the most important for you to consider when somebody says "I love you" to you? [A]The intention. [B]The place. [C]The time. [D]The determination. Text 3 At the European Commission in Brussels, they have a joke about the work interpreters do-"Languages", they say, "have nothing to do with interpretation, it helps to know them. "Anyone thinking of becoming an interpreter would bear this so well in mind. Translating languages, especially in a political context, involves far more than mere linguistic ability. To work in an international organization, such as the United Nations, you need to be approved by one of the various international translators or interpreters' associations. To achieve this, you must experience rigorous and lengthy training, either at an accrediting organization' s own school, or on a post graduate course at university. But a qualification in languages is not the only route into the job .At London' s University of Westminster, candidates get offered a place on the interpreter' s course if they can show that they have "lived a bit", in the words of one lecture. Young people who have just left university often lack adequate experience of life. The University also looks for candidates who have lived for long time in the countries where their acquired languages are spoken. They are also expected to have wide cultural interests and a good knowledge of current affairs. This broad range of interests are essential in a job which can require interpreting discussions of disarmament (裁军) on Monday, international fishing rights on Tuesday ,multinational finance on Wednesday, and the building and construction industry on Thursday. Interpreters also rely on adrenaline(肾上腺素)--which is caused by the stress and challenges of the job--to keep them going through their demanding schedules. Many admit that they enjoy the buzz of adrenaline they get from the job, and it' s known that their heart rates speed up while they are working. It' s also a job with its own risks and excitement. Interpreters are needed in war zones as well as in centers of international diplomacy, like the U. N. 56. According to the passage, what does the underlined phrase "lived a bit "mean? [A]To be older than others. [B]To travel to more countries. [C]To have abundant life experience. [D]To have longer training in interpreting. 57. Candidates for the training course in London' s University of Westminster need the following qualifications EXCEPT [A]having wide cultural interests [B]having a good knowledge of current affairs [C]being familiar with the languages they translate [D]being eloquent lecturers 58. The interpreters rely on adrenaline because [A]it can help finish their work quickly [B]it can make them excited [C]it can prevent them from heart disease [D]it can make them work harder 59. According to the passage, we can infer that [A]language has nothing to do with interpreting [B]only those postgraduates from the foreign language universities can work as interpreters [C]interpreters must live in the country where the required language is spoken [D]interpreters build the bridge for international communication 60. The job as an interpreter has the following characteristics EXCEPT [A]funny [B]intrepid [C]dangerous sometimes [D]excitingPart B Directions:The 12,000 members of the Electricity Workers' Union went on strike last week and since then there has been no electricity.

Butwhen British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of "family"in itsnarrow, peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together in their own houseas an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and in-dependent family--hence thetremendous importance of marriage in British life. For both man andwoman, marriage means leaving one’s parents and starting one’s own life. The man’s first duty willthen be to his wife, and the wife’s to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financialsupport, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibilityand their alone. Neither the wife’s parents nor the husband’s, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts oruncles, have any right to interfere with them-they are their own masters.Readers of novels likeJane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times, marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girl’s parents, that is, it was the "parents' duty tofind a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement tolead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected andmaintained in the parents' home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in theirgiving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry (嫁妆). It is very different today.Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before theirmarriage. This has had two results. A girl chooses her own husband, and she gets no dowry. Everycoin has two sides; independence for girls is no exception. But it may be a good thing for all of thegirls, as their social status are much higher and they are no longer the subordinate(部下,下级) oftheir parents and husbands.46. What does the author mean by "Family is of course an elastic word"?[A]Different families have different ways of life.[B]Different definitions could be given to the word.[C]Different nations have different families.[D]Different times produce different families.47. For an English family, th e husband’s duty is________[A]supporting the family while the wife is working out[B]defending the family while the wife is running the home[C]providing financial support while the wife is running the home[D]independent while his wife is also independent48. Everything is decided in a family________[A]by the couple[B]with the help of their parents[C]by brothers and sisters[D]with the help of aunts and uncles49. What is TRUE conceming the book Pride and Prejudice?[A]It is the best book on marriage.[B]It is a handbook on marriage.[C]It gives some idea of English social life in the past.[D]It provides a lot of information of former-time wealthy families.50. With regard to marriage in Britain, present-day girls differ from former-time girls in________[A]the right family[B]more parental support[C]choosing husbands[D]social positionText 2Steveland Morris is a household name in America.

He became Stevie Wonder composer, singer, and pianist.

In the evenings and on weekends, Stevie would play different in-struments and sing popular rhythm and blues tunes on the front porches (走廊) of neighbors' homes.One of Stevie’s sessions was overheard by Ronnie White, a member of a popular singing groupcalled The Miracles. Ronnie immediately recognized Stevie’s talent and took him to audition (试听)for Berry Gordy, the president of Hitsville USA, a large recording company now known as Motown.Stevie recorded his first smash hit "Fingertips" in 1962 at age twelve, and the rest of Stevie’s story ismusic history.51.

Part A Possible answerDear Sir or Madam,I was a tourist of your agency.I caught a bad cold during my last trip to Mount Tai.I had a fever and felt very awful.I really had no idea how to do at that moment.Fortunately,my tourist guide helped me a lot。

She gave me some medicine,and prepared some porridge for me.Thanks to her warm care,I felt better very soon.1 write to show my gratitude tomy guide-and your travel agency.Many thanks.Yours,Wang Lin 67. Part B Possible answer:This picture shows the serious overcrowding problem in a scenic place during thenational holiday.As we can see from the picture,there are tourists everywhere.There are a lot of people enjoying boating in the small lake.Almost every inch of the bridge above the lake is covered by tourists.Tourists with their children spread on the land surrounding the lake.In a word,the only impression of the scenic place on national holiday is too crowded.The cause of the overcrowding problem is obvious.One is more and more people choose to travel during holidays.The other is the improvement of people's living standard.Here are some suggestions to avoid such a phenomenon.First,the scenic agency can show the number of the tourists who have booked the tickets on net.Those who plan to visit the scene can see the possible number of tourists beforehand.In this way,they can make another choice.Second,those who really want to enjoy their holidays had better avoid travelling in golden weeks. one who would like enjoy his holiday should be more reasonable.If all of the tourists choose to travel at the same time,no one can actually enjoy their holidays.2009年3月公共英语三级真题及答案(总分85,考试时间90分钟)section ⅰ listening comprehension1—25(略)section ⅱ use of englishdirections: read the following text。

Not everyone in the world requires the same amount of living space. The amount of space a person needs around him is a cultural preference, not an economic one. Knowing our own psychological space needs is important because they strongly influence your choices, including, for example, the number of bedrooms in the home. If you were brought up in a two child family and both you and your sister or brother had your own bedrooms, the chances are, if you have two children or more, that you also will provide separate bedrooms for them. In America they train people to have their own private rooms by giving them their own rooms when they are babies. This is very rare in the world. In many cultures the baby sleeps in the same bed with his parents or in a small bed near his parents’bed. The area in the home also reveals a lot about psychological space needs. Although it is true that psychological space needs are not determined by economic factors, they sometimes have to be limited a little because of economic pressures. It is almost impossible, however, to completely change your psychological space needs.22.Which factor determines human beings’ psychological space needs?A.Economic factors.B.Pressure in life.C.Individual preference.D.Cultural preference.正确答案:D23.Where do the babies live in America?A.In his/her own room.B.In a small bed near the parents’ bed.C.On their parents’ bed.D.In his/her brother’ s or sister’ s room.正确答案:A24.What does the author think of the American way of training people?A.It’s common.B.It’s realistic.C.It’s uncommon.D.It’s inhuman.正确答案:C25.Why are the psychological space needs limited?A.Because of financial pressures.B.Because of individual liking.C.Because of local customs.D.Because of cultural difference.正确答案:ASection II Use of English (15 minutes)Directions: Read the following text. Choose the best word or phrase for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on ANSWER SHEET 1.The whole of the United States cheered its latest hero, Ashley Smith, with the Federal Bureau of Investigation saying it was planning to give a big reward to her for having a brave heart and wise mind. 【B1】______She was moving into her apartment in Atlanta, Georgia early on the morning of March 12, when a man followed her to her door and put a gun to her side. “I started walking to my door, and I felt really, really afraid,” she said in a TV interview last week. The man was Brian Nichols, 33. He was suspected of killing three people at an Atlanta courthouse(法院)on March, 11 and later of killing a federal agent. 【B2】______ Nichols tied Smith up with tape, but released her after she repeatedly begged him not to take her life. “I told him if he hurt me, my little girl wouldn’ t have a mummy,” she said. In order to calm the man down, she read to him from The Purpose-Driven Life, a best-selling religious boot. He asked her to repeat a paragraph “about what you thought your purpose in life was—what talents were you given. 【B3】______ “ I basically just talked to him and tried to gain his trust,”Smith said. Smith said she asked Nichols why he chose her. “ He said he thought I was an angel sent from God, and we were Christian sister and brother, “ she said. “And that he was lost, and that God led him to me to tell him that he had hurt a lot of people.【B4】______She said Nichols was surprised when she made him breakfast and that the two of them watched television coverage(报道)of the police hunt for him. “I cannot believe that’s me, “ Nichols told the woman. Then, Nichols asked Smith what she thought he should do. She said, “I think you should turn yourself in. If you don’t, lots more people are going to get hurt. “Eventually, he let her go.【B5】______A $60,000 reward had been posted for Nichols’capture. Authorities said they did not yet know if Smith would be eligible(有资格的)for that money.[A]She even cooked breakfast for the man before he allowed her to leave.[B]Smith thanked the man for his kindness.[C]Smith tried very hard to kill Nichols.[D]The local police were searching for him.[E]And the two of them discussed this topic.[F]Then she called the police.[G]Smith is a 26-year-old single mother with a daughter.26.【B1】正确答案:G解析:文章第二段是对事件发生背景的介绍,选项G介绍了当事人的年龄和身份,因此选项G是正确。
