For each of them there are fourchoices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choiceand mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the center.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:After reading so much, you may wonder how to make a book. It’s time for you to have a try!Have you ever wondered how a book is made? It takes a lot of people to make a book. It can take months, or even years, for a book to go from an idea to a finished product.A book begins when an author comes up with an idea for a book. Authors get ideas in different ways. They may get ideas from their own lives, from watching the world around them, orfrom reading.Next, an author may plan the book by making an outline ( 提纲 ). Sometimes authors do research to gather information. They may read books or articles. They may interview people orvisit places.Then, the author begins to write. Authors may write for months or years to finish a manuscript. A manuscript is the text an author produces for publication.Finally, the author sends the completed manuscript to a publisher. If the publisher decides topublish the book, the author works with an editor. An editor reads the manuscript. Then he or sherecommends changes to improve the book. A copy editor reads the manuscript to correct anygrammatical mistake.After an author makes the suggested changes, a designer may decide how the book will look.The designer may choose the size, shape, and type styles for the book. Some picture book authorscreate their own illustrations（插图）. If not, an illustrator is chosen to create pictures for the book.The illustrator makes sketches of pictures that will go on each page. The sketches are sent tothe publishing company. The editor makes sure the pictures clearly tell the story. The designerchecks how the words and pictures will fit together on the pages.2After the design changes are made, the illustrator begins creating the final pictures. He or shemay change the colours, the perspective, or the composition of pictures. It may take months tocreate all the pictures.The finished art is then sent to the publisher. The designer adjusts（调整）how the picturesand words fit together on the pages. The completed pages are sent to the printer. Many books arestill made into books with paper pages.The printer uses huge printing presses to make the pages. The pages are fixed together. Thebook cover is added. The finished books are then sent to the publisher’s warehouse. They arestored there until they are bought by libraries and bookstores.E-readers have changed how some books are made. Some authors do not use a publisheratall. Instead of sending a manuscript to a publisher, some authors turn their manuscripts intoeBooks themselves. Finally, an author’s eBook is uploaded（上传）to virtual bookstores on theInternet. Customers can buy and download eBooks from these websites.1. According to the passage, the designer’s job is to ________. [单选题] *A. create pictures for the book.B. make an outline of the book.C. decide how the book will look.(正确答案)D. correct grammatical mistakes in the book.2. Your first book will be published soon. What will first happen to it after the illustrator hascreated the final pictures? [单选题] *A. B.C.(正确答案)D.3. The writer uses the LAST paragraph to ________. [单选题] *A. introduce the history of eBooks.B. describe the disadvantages of eBooks.C. show the development of making a book.(正确答案)D. ask customers to support authors in making a book.4.

From Idea to Book(正确答案)B. Different Kinds of BooksC. Workers in the Publishing HouseD. Between Publishers and CustomersPassage TwoGrown-ups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practiced ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming foryears can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle aftermany years and still ride away. He can play catch and hit a ball as well as his son. A mother whohas not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins "Twinkle,twinkle, little star" or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks and the Three Bears.One explanation is the law of overlearning , which can be stated as follows: Once we havelearned something, additional learning trials(尝试) increase the length of time we will rememberit.In childhood we usually continue to practice such skills as swimming, bicycle riding, and playing baseball long after we have learned them. We continue to listen to and remind ourselves ofwords such as "Twinkle, twinkle, little star" and childhood tales such as Cinderella and Goldilocks.We not only learn but overlearn.The multiplication tables(乘法口诀表) are an exception to the general rule that we forget rather quickly the things that we learn in school, because they are another of the things weoverlearn in childhood.The law of overlearning explains why cramming(突击学习) for an examination, though itmay result in a passing grade, is not a satisfactory way to learn a college course. By cramming, astudent may learn the subject well enough to get by on the examination, but he is likely soon toforget almost everything he learned. A little overlearning, on the other hand, is really necessary forone's future development.6. What is the main idea of paragraph 1? [单选题] *A. People remember well what they learned in childhood.(正确答案)B. Children have a better memory than grown-ups.C. Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D. Stories for children arc easy to remember.7. The author explains the law of overlearning by_________. [单选题] *A. presenting research findingsB. selling down general rulesC. making a comparisonD. using examples(正确答案)8. According to the author, being able to use multiplication tables is_______.4 [单选题] *A. a result of overlearning(正确答案)B. a special case of crammingC. a skill to deal with math problemsD. a basic step towards advanced studies9. What does the word "they" in Paragraph 4 refer to? [单选题] *A. Commonly accepted rules.B. The multiplication tables.(正确答案)C. Things easily forgotten.D. School subjects.10. What is the author's opinion on cramming? [单选题] *A. It leads to failure in college exams.B. It's helpful only in a limited way.(正确答案)C. It's possible to result in poor memory.D. It increases students' learning interest.Passage ThreeQuestions1 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Not so long ago, most people didn’t know who Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce was going to become. She was just an average high school athlete. There was every indication that she was justanother Jamaican teenager without much of a future. However, one person wanted to change this.Stephen Francis observed then eighteen-year-old Shelly-Ann at a track meet and was convincedthat he had seen the beginnings of true greatness. Her times were not exactly impressive, but evenso, he sensed there was something trying to get out, something the other coaches had overlookedwhen they had assessed her and found her lacking. He decided to offer Shelly-Ann a place in hisvery strict training sessions. Their cooperation quickly produced results, and a few years later atJamaica's Olympic trials in early 2008, Shelly-Ann, who at that time only ranked number 70 in theworld, beat Jamaica's unchallenged queen of the sprint (短跑).“Where did she come from?” asked an astonished sprinting world, before concluding that she must be one of those one-hit wonders that spring up from time to time, only to disappear againwithout signs. But Shelly-Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one-hit wonder. At theBeijing Olympics she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 meters Olympic gold. She did it again oneyear on at the World Championships in Berlin, becoming world champion with a time of 10.73 —the fourth fastest time ever.Shelly-Ann is a little woman with a big smile. She has a mental toughness that did not comeabout by chance. Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything butsmooth and effortless. She grew up in one of Jamaica's toughest inner-city communities known asWaterhouse, where she lived in a one-room apartment, sleeping four in a bed with her mother andtwo brothers. Waterhouse, one of the poorest communities in Jamaica, is a really violent andoverpopulated place. Several of Shelly-Ann's friends and family were caught up in the killings;one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived. Sometimes herfamily didn't have enough to eat. She ran at the school championships barefooted because shecouldn't afford shoes. Her mother Maxime, one of a family of fourteen, had been an athlete herselfas a young girl, but, like so many other girls in Waterhouse, had to stop after she had her first baby.5Maxime's early entry into the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determination toensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse's roundabout of poverty. One of the firstthings Maxime used to do with Shelly-Ann was taking her to the track, and she was ready tosacrifice everything.It didn't take long for Shelly-Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse.On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008, all those long, hard hours of work and commitmentfinally bore fruit. The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty,surrounded by criminals and violence, had written a new chapter in the history of sports. But Shelly-Ann's victory was far greater than that. The night she won Olympic gold in Beijing, the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped.The dark cloud above one of the world's toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared fora few days. “I have so much fire burning for my country,” Shelly said. She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse. Shehopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons. She intends to fight to make it awoman's as well as a man's world.As Muhammad Ali puts it, “Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them. A desire, a dream, a vision.” One of the things Shelly-Anncan be proud of is her understanding of this truth.11. Why did Stephen Francis decide to coach Shelly-Ann? [单选题] *A. He had a strong desire to free her family from trouble.B. He sensed a great potential in her despite her weaknesses.(正确答案)C. She had big problems maintaining her performance.D. She suffered a lot of defeats at the previous track meets.12. What did the sprinting world think of Shelly-Ann before the 2008 Olympic Games? [单选题] *A. She would become a promising star.B. She badly needed to set higher goals.C. Her sprinting career would not last long.(正确答案)D. Her talent for sprinting was known to all.13. What made Maxime decide to train her daughter on the track? [单选题] *A. Her success and lessons in her career.B. Her interest in Shelly-Ann’s quick profit.C. Her wish to get Shelly-Ann out of poverty.D. Her early entrance into the sprinting world.(正确答案)D. Her early entrance into the sprinting world.14. What can we infer from Shelly-Ann’s statement underlined in Paragraph 5? [单选题] *A. She was highly rewarded for her efforts.B. She was eager to do more for her country.(正确答案)C. She became an athletic star in her country.D. She was the envy of the whole community.15. By mentioning Muhammad Ali’s words, the author intends to tell usthat______________. [单选题] *A. players should be highly inspired by coachesB. great athletes need to concentrate on patienceC. hard work is necessary in one’s achievementsD. motivation allows great athletes to be on the top(正确答案)Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:One evening in February 2007, a student named Paula Ceely brought her car to a stop on aremote road in Wales. She got out to open a metal gate that blocked her path .That’s when sheheard the whistle sounded by the driver of a train. Her Renault Clio was parked across a railwayline. Seconds later, she watched the train drag her car almost a kilometre down the railway tracks.6Ceely’s near miss made the news because she blamed it on he GPS (导航仪). She had neverdriven the route before. It was dark and raining heavily. Ceely was relying on her GPS, but itmade no mention of the crossing. “I put my complete trust in the device and it led me right intothe path of a speeding train,” she told the BBC.Who is to blame here? Rick Stevenson, who tells Ceely’s story in his book When MachinesFail Us, points the finger at the limitations of technology. We put our faith in digital devices, hesays, but our digital helpers are too often not up to the job. They are filled with small problems.And it’s not just GPS devices: Stevenson takes us on a tour of digital disasters involving everything from mobile phones to wireless keyboards.The problem with his argument in the book is that it’s not clear why he only focuses on digital technology, while there may be a number of other possible causes. A map-maker mighthave left the crossing off a paper map. Maybe we should blame Ceely for not paying attention.Perhaps the railway authorities are at fault for poor singalling system. Or maybe someone hasstudied the relative dangers and worked out that there really is something specific wrong with theGPS equipment. But Stevenson doesn’t say.It’s a problem that runs through the book. In a section on cars, Stevenson gives an account ofthe advanced techniques that criminals use to defeat computer-based locking systems for cars. Heoffers two independent sets of figures on car theft; both show a small rise in some parts of thecountry. He says that once again not all new locks have proved reliable. Perhaps, but maybe it’salso due to the shortage of policemen on the streets. Or changing social circumstances. Or somecombination of these factors.The game between humans and their smart devices is amusing and complex. It is shaped byeconomics and psychology and the cultures we live in. Somewhere in the mix of those forces theremay be a way for a wiser use of technology.If there is such a way, it should involve more than just an awareness of the shortcomings ofour machines. After all, we have lived with them for thousands of years. They have probably beenfooling us for just as long.16.What did Paula Ceely think was the cause of her accident？ [单选题] *A. She was not familiar with the road.B. It was dark and raining heavily then.C. The railway workers failed to give the signal.D. Her GPS device didn’t tell her about the crossing.(正确答案)17.The phrase “near miss” (Paragraph 2) can best be replaced by______. [单选题] *A. close hitB. heavy lossC. narrow escape(正确答案)D. big mistake18. Which of the following would Rick Stevenson most probably agree with? [单选题] *A. Modern technology is what we can’t live without.B. Digital technology often falls short of our expectation.(正确答案)C. Digital devices are more reliable than they used to be.D. GPS error is not the only cause for Ceely’s accident.19. In the writer’s opinion, Stevenson’s argume nt is _______. [单选题] *A. one-sided(正确答案)B. reasonableC. puzzlingD. well-based20. What is the real concern of the writer of this article? [单选题] *A. The major causes of traffic accidents and car thefts.B. The relationship between human and technology.(正确答案)C. The shortcomings of digital devices we use.D. The human unawareness of technical problems.Part II Vocabulary and Structure (20%)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

He placed h is large hand lovingly on his treasure and said, “I have 800 karaoke songs in here.You can take your 70 and I’ll record them for you. That should get you started.”I could have cried.

Advocates argue that bilingual education can provide numerous cognitive, academic, and societal benefits to students. One of the most well-known benefits of bilingual education is that it can improve students' cognitive abilities. Research has shown that bilingual individuals tend to have better problem-solving skills, greater mental flexibility, and enhanced creativity compared to monolingual individuals.In addition to cognitive benefits, bilingual education can also have academic advantages. Studies have found that bilingual students often outperform their monolingual peers in subjects such as reading and mathematics. These academic advantages can set bilingual students up for success in higher education and the workforce.Finally, bilingual education can have positive societal impacts as well. By promoting multiculturalism and diversity, bilingual education can help foster understanding and empathy among students of different backgrounds.

2024江西学士学位英语考试真题
2024江西学士学位英语考试真题全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇12024 Jiangxi Bachelor's Degree English ExamPart I Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are 4 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The brain has many paths, which help us to make decisions and interact with the world. But does the brain have a center? Is there one spot where consciousness arises, or is consciousness a product of many different areas working together in complex ways?Recent research has shown that conscious thoughts and decisions are actually a result of the brain's different centersworking together in harmony. Studies have found that no single area of the brain is solely responsible for consciousness. Instead, many areas work in sync, creating our sense of self and agency.One important area involved in this process is the default mode network (DMN). This network of brain regions is active during wakeful rest, when we are not focused on the outside world or any tasks. It is thought to play a key role in our sense of self and the ability to daydream or self-reflect.Overall, consciousness is a complex interplay of different brain areas, each contributing in its own way to our understanding of the world and ourselves.1. According to the passage, consciousness is ___________.A. solely controlled by one specific area of the brainB. a result of the brain's different centers working togetherC. primarily dependent on the default mode networkD. a product of daydreaming and self-reflection2. The default mode network (DMN) is active ___________.A. when we are focused on the outside worldB. only during sleepC. when we are not engaged in any particular tasksD. when we are making important decisions3. What role does the default mode network play in consciousness?A. It is responsible for controlling all brain functions.B. It is the only area of the brain involved in consciousness.C. It helps us focus on the outside world.D. It contributes to our sense of self and the ability to daydream or self-reflect.4. From the passage, we can infer that ___________.A. consciousness is a simple and straightforward processB. different brain areas do not work together to create consciousnessC. the brain has a central spot where consciousness arisesD. consciousness is a result of the brain's different centers working together5. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The brain has a center responsible for consciousness.B. The default mode network controls all brain functions.C. Consciousness is a complex interplay of different brain areas.D. Daydreaming and self-reflection are important for consciousness.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Climate change is a global issue that affects everyone, regardless of where they live. In recent years, the impact of climate change has become increasingly evident, with extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and melting ice caps. While individual actions such as recycling and reducing energy consumption are important, systemic changes are needed at a larger scale to combat climate change effectively.One key aspect of addressing climate change is transitioning to renewable energy sources. Fossil fuels are a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions, which are the main drivers of climate change. By investing in solar, wind, and hydroelectric power, we can reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and lower our carbon footprint.Additionally, protecting and restoring ecosystems such as forests, wetlands, and oceans is crucial for combating climate change. These natural habitats sequester carbon dioxide and provide valuable services such as regulating temperature and supporting biodiversity. Restoring degraded ecosystems can help offset carbon emissions and mitigate the impact of climate change.Overall, tackling climate change requires a multi-faceted approach that involves both individual actions and systemic changes. By working together and implementing sustainable practices, we can create a healthier and more resilient planet for future generations.6. What is the main topic of the passage?A. The impact of climate change on the environmentB. Individual actions to combat climate changeC. Transitioning to renewable energy sourcesD. Tackling climate change through ecosystem protection7. According to the passage, why is transitioning to renewable energy sources important?A. To reduce our reliance on fossil fuelsB. To increase greenhouse gas emissionsC. To support biodiversity in natural habitatsD. To create extreme weather events8. How do ecosystems such as forests and wetlands help combat climate change?A. By increasing carbon dioxide emissionsB. By supporting renewable energy sourcesC. By sequestering carbon dioxideD. By contributing to rising sea levels9. What is the primary message of the passage?A. Individual actions are sufficient to combat climate change.B. Systemic changes are not necessary to address climate change.C. Tackling climate change requires a multi-faceted approach.D. Renewable energy sources have no impact on climate change.10. Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A. Climate change is caused by individual actions.B. Renewable energy sources are essential for combating climate change.C. Protecting ecosystems has no impact on climate change.D. The impact of climate change is limited to extreme weather events.Part II Writing (30 points)Directions: Write an essay based on the following information.

A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.
