河南成人本科学位英语真题2011年_真题-无答案(263)
河南成人本科学位英语真题2011年(总分100,考试时间120分钟)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 choiPassage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Television has opened windows in everybody’s life. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914, Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count. Unfortunately, television’s influence has been extremely harmful to the young. (76)Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television gene rations” are more violent than their parents and grandparents. Also, the young are less patient.(77)Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’t do funny things like the people on children’s programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the time it takes on the screen.1. In the past, many young people ______.A. knew the effects of warB. went in for politicsC. liked to save the wounded in warsD. were willing to be soldiers2. Now with TV people can _____.A. discus politics at an information centerB. show more interest in politicsC. make their own decisions on political affairsD. express their opinions freely3. The author thinks that TV advertisements _____.A. are not reliable on the wholeB. are useless to peopleC. are a good guide to adultsD. are very harmful to the young4. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. People have become used to crimes now.B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.C. People now like to read books with picture.D. The adults are less violent than the young.5. From the passage, we can conclude that _____.A. children should keep away from TVB. TV programs should be improvedC. children’s books should have picturesD. TV has a deep influence on the youngPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talking. (78) The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry. For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to . The “eye contact” provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other tha n there is between people who don’t like each other. (79)The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about. On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone who is always smiling, and with little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.6. According to the passage, nonverbal communication _____.A. is a method often used by people who cannot speakB. can tell something that words cannotC. can be used to talk with people who cannot bearD. is less used than words7. The South American _____.A. tends to keep a distance between himself and the person he is speaking toB. usually stands close to the person he is talking toC. is often unfriendly when spoken toD. is often cold and distant when speaking8. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.B. The longer one looks at you , the more interest he has in you.C. There is more eye contact between people who like each other.D. Shorter eye contact show more interest in what one is talking about.9. Too long a gaze _____.A. may upset people being looked atB. shows one’s great confidenceC. indicates one’s interest in the talkD. tells you how friendly one is10. Constant smiling without apparent reason _____.A. is a sign of one’s friendlinessB. is a sign of one’s unfriendlinessC. makes people fell happyD. makes people feel uncomfortablePassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage: In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, Mostly married. (80) The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago - so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than gibing them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. Ti probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.11. According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children _____.A. sensible and sensitiveB. competitive and interestedC. curious and friendlyD. happy and co-operative12. Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think _____.A. children are reluctant to help each otherB. schools lay too much emphasis on co-operationC. children should grow up with competitive ideasD. schools give little actual instruction to children13. The auth or’s attitude towards American education can be best described as _____.A. favorableB. negativeC. tolerantD. unfriendly14. The American educational system emphasizes _____.A. material wealthB. competitionC. co-operationD. personal benefit15. The word “sociable” (Line 8, Paragraph2) most probably means _____.A. fond of talking freelyB. friendly with other peopleC. concerned about social welfareD. happy at schoolPart II V ocabulary and Structure (30%) Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete sentences. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Researchers have found that REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep, lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical changes in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61.According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?A. OnceB. TwiceC. Four or five timesD. Forty times62.The word “deeper” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to which of the following?A. heavierB. louderC. strongerD. happier63.Which of the following shows that a person is NOT dreaming in his sleep?A. His eyes begin to move.B. His breathing becomes faster.C. His heart rate increases.D. His eyes stop moving.64.The subject of this passage is .A. why people sleepB. the human need for REM sleepC. the characteristics of REM sleepD. physical changes in the human body65.Which of the following is the best title of the article?A. REM SleepB. Two Types of SleepC. SleepersD. What Happens to SleepersPassage2Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox, they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are w ealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal (残酷的), has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation ( 冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs ( 阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox’s smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.66.Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes .A. for recreationB. in the interests of the farmersC. to limit the fox populationD. to show off their wealth67.What is special about fox hunting in Britain?A. It involves the use of a deadly poison.B. It is a costly event which rarely occurs.C. The hunters have set rules to follow.D. The hunters have to go through strict training.68.Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game .A. by resorting to violenceB. by confusing the fox huntersC. by taking legal actionD. by demonstrating on the scene69.A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to .A. prohibit farmers from hunting foxesB. forbid hunting foxes with dogsC. stop hunting wild animals in the countrysideD. prevent large-scale fox hunting70.It can be inferred from the passage that .A.killing foxes with poison is illegalB.limiting the fox population is unnecessaryC.hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violentD.fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the richPassage3If you listen to American music, watch American television or magazines, you will probably agree that the most popular subject of these forms of entertainment is love. Romantic love always finds an audience in the United States. Falling in love, solving the problems of love, and achieving the happy ending --- the big wedding are subjects of interest to the adult as well as the teenage public. Millions of Americans celebrate Valentine's Day with special cards and gifts that announce their love to their mates, their friends, their coworkers, and their families. Popular songs tell us that “all the world loves a lover”. A popular saying is “Love conquers all”. Numerous columns in magazines and newspapers offer advice to the lovelorn, those with difficulties of the heart. To most Americans, romantic love is central to a happy life.Not only do Americans believe in romantic love but they also believe that it is the best basis for making a happy marriage. Despite the high divorce rate in the United States, young men and women continue to marry on the basis of romantic love.Americans consider marriage a private arrangement between the two people involved. Young Americans feel free to choose their own marriage partners from any social, economic, or religious background. The man or woman may have strong ties with parents, brothers, or sisters, but when he or she falls in love, the strongest feelings are supposed to be for the loved one. When an American couple marries, they generally plan to live apart from both sets of parents and build their own independent family structure.71.What is the most popular subject of all forms of entertainment?A. Marriage.B. Love.C. Family.D. Friendship.72.Who is interested in the subject of love?A. Adults who are single.B. Teenagers whose parents are divorced.C. Old people who have no children.D.

Many people long for it, but it is unbelievable.74.What factors do young Americans consider when choosing their own marriage partners?A.They will think about their social background.B.They think economic background is essential.C.They won’t choose a marriage partner from different religious background.D.they don’t think social economic or religious background is important.75.What does an American couple plan to do when they marry?A.They continue to live with their parents after their marriage.B.They plan to live by themselves.C.They plan to earn more money to buy a house.D.They plan to travel all over the world.Passage4In 1939 two brothers,Mac and Dick McDonald,started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernardino,California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater ,then a barbecue(烤肉)restaurant.,then another drive-in. But in their new operation,they offered a new,shortened menu: French fries,hamburgers,and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity(一致性), for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks’ sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular,particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954,when he was selling milkshake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers’ fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营)other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment,even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today McDonald’s is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976,McDonald’s had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.76.This passage mainly talks about .A. the development of fast food servicesB. how McDonald’s became a billion-dollar businessC. the business careers of Mac and Dick McDonaldD.

SpecialB. financialC. attractiveD. peculiarPart ⅣTranslation (1.5×10)Directions: There are 10 sentences in this part.

Some people like drinking coffee, for it has _____ effects.A. promotingB. stimulatingC. enhancingD. encouragingPart Ⅱ 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.(76)I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there\'s a big difference between "being a writer\' and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. "You\'ve got to want to write," I say to them, "not want to be a writer".The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartmentbuilding. It didn\'t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn't gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn't going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? (77 )I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1. The passage is meant to ______.A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it\'s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career2. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B. A writer\'s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D. The chances for writer to become successful are small3. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He wasn\'t able to produce a single book.B. He hadn\'t seen aching for the better.C. He wasn\'t able to have a rest for a whole year.D. He though that he lacked imagination.4. "…people who die wondering: What if ?"(Lin4-5, Para-3) refers to "those _____".A. who think too much of the dark side of lifeB. who regret giving up their career halfwayC. who think a lot without making a decisionD. who are full of imagination even upon death5. "Shadowland" in the last sentence refers to _____.A. the wonderland on often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. the state of uncertainty before one\'s final goal is reachedD. a world that exists only in one\'s imaginationPassage 2uestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Toady, experts believe that nearly two-thirds of the world\'s population live within eighty kilometers of the seacoast.(78)In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man\'s needs in the future.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man\'s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, copper and so on exist on the ocean floor.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. For example, warm temperature of the ocean can be used as the steam in a steamship. Sea may also offer a source of energy as electricity for mankind.Technology is enabling man to explore even deeper under the sea. It is obvious that the technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. (79)By the 2050, experts believe that the problems to explore the food, minerals and energy resources of the sea will have been largel7y solved.6. What is the beat title for the passage?A. Needs of Man.B. Sea Harvest and FoodC. Sea and Sources of EnergyD. Sea Exploring Technology.7. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. man hasn\'t completely made use of the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC. harvesting rice in the sea will be made possibleD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor8. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ships.C. To argue that man should use steamships.D. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.9. According to the author, technology is important because ______.A. resources on land are running short in ten yearsB. man can use it to explore the deeper seaC. it is a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used it to explore the sea10. According to the author, when will the problems to explore the deeper sea largely be solved?A. In the next generation.B. By the end of the 20th century.C. In the near future.D. By the middle of the 21st century.Passage 3estions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit. About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly. It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women. Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person\'s smoking habit. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.(80)There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11. What do we know from the first paragraph ?A. More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B. There are more smoking women than smoking men in USA.C. It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D. The U.S. has more smoking people than any other country.12.What factors determine a person\'s smoking habits ?A. Age, income and education.B. Age, sex and income.C. Occupation, income and sex.D. Occupation, income and education.13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?A. City people are less likely to smoke.B. People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C. Men with higher income tend to smoke.D. Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.14.What is the smoking situation for women ?A. The situation is quite the same for women as for men .B. Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C. There are more women smokers with low incomes.D. Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ?A. The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B. The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C. High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D. Farmers\' children tend to smoke more.Part Ⅲ Identification (10%)Directions: Each of the following sentences has four underlined parts marked A, B, C and D. Identify the one that is not correct.

Like most English children I learned French at school and I had often 57 to France, I so I was used 58 a foreign language to people who did not understand 59 . But when I went to America I was really looking forward to 60 a nice easy holiday without any 61 problems.How wrong I was ! the misunderstanding began at the airport. I was looking for a 62 telephone to give my American friend Danny a 63 and tell her I had arrived. A friendly old man saw me 64 lost and asked 65 he could help me.

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 Answer SheetPassage 1Researchers have found that REM (rapid eye movement) sleep is important to human beings. This type of sleep generally occurs four or five times during one night of sleep lasting five minutes to forty minutes for each occurrence. The deeper a person’s sleep becomes, the longer the periods of rapid eye movement.There are physical charges in the body to show that a person has changed from NREM (non-rapid eye movement) to REM sleep. Breathing becomes faster, the heart rate increases, and, as the name implies, the eyes begin to move quickly.Accompanying these physical changes in the body is a very important characteristic of REM sleep. It is during REM sleep that a person dreams.61. According to the passage, how often does REM sleep occur in one night?A. OnceB. TwiceC. Four of five timesD. Forty times62. The word “deeper” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to which of the following?A. heavier.B. louder.C. stronger.D. happier.63. Which of the following shows that a person is NOT dreaming in his sleep?A. His eyes begin to move.B. His breathing becomes faster.C. His heart rate increases.D. His eyes stop moving.64. The subject of this passage is ________.A. why people sleepB. the human need for REM sleepC. the characteristic of REM sleepD. physical changes in the human body65. Which of the following is the best title of the article?A. REM SleepB. Two Types of SleepC. SleepersD. What Happens to SleepersPassage 2Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long beenaccused of killing farm animals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunt to control the fox population. Hunting consists of pursuing a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox they kill it or a hunter shoots it.People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport; they wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behavior. But owning a horse and hunting regularly is expensive, so most hunters are wealthy.It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people opposed to fox hunting, because they think it is brutal (残酷的), has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of confrontation (冲突) between hunters and hunt saboteurs (阻拦者). Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly saboteurs interfere with the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox's smell, which the dogs follow.Noisy confrontations between hunters and saboteurs have become so common that they are almost as much a part of hunting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox hunting face a much bigger threat totheir sport. A Labour Party Member of the Parliament, Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.66. Rich people in Britain have been hunting foxes______________.A) for recreation B) in the interests of the farmersC) to limit the fox population D) to show off their wealth67. What is special about fox hunting in Britain?A) It involves the use of a deadly poison. B) It is a costly event which rarely occurs.C) The hunters have set rules to follow. D) The hunters have to go through strict training.68. Fox hunting opponents often interfere in the game________.A) by resorting to violence B) by confusing the fox huntersC) by taking legal action D) by demonstrating on the scene69. A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to________.A) prohibit farmers from hunting foxes B) forbid hunting foxes with dogsC) stop hunting wild animals in the countryside D) prevent large-scale fox hunting70. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A) killing foxes with poison is illegalB) limiting the fox population is unnecessaryC) hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and violentD) fox-hunting often leads to confrontation between the poor and the richPassage 3If you listen to American music, watch American television or magazines, you will probably agree that the most popular subject of these forms of entertainment is love. Romantic love always finds an audience in the United States. Falling in love, solving the problems of love, and achieving the happy ending—the big wedding are subjects of i nterest to both the adult and the teenage public. Millions of Americans celebrate Valentine’s Day with special cards and gifts that announce their love to their mates, their friends, and their families. Popular songs tell us that “all the world loves a lov er “A popular saying is “Love conquers all”. Numerous columns in magazines and newspapers offer advice to lovelorn, those with difficulties of heart. To most Americans, romantic love is central to a happy life.Not only do Americans believe in romantic love but they also believe that it is the best basis for making a happy marriage. Despite the high divorce rate in the United States, young men and women continue to marry on the basis of romantic love. Americans consider marriage a private arrangement between the two people involved. Young Americans feel free to choose their own marriage partners from any social, economic, or religious background. The man or woman may have strong ties with parents, brothers, or sisters, but when he or she falls in love, the strongest feelings are supposed to be for the loved one. When an American couple marries, they generally plan to live apart from both sets of parents and build their own independent family structure.71. What is the most popular subject of all forms of entertainment?A. MarriageB. Love C Families D. Friendship72. Who is interested in the subject of love?A. Adults who are single.B. Teenagers whose parents are divorced.C. Old people who have no children.D. Both adults and teenagers.73. What do most Americans think of romantic love?A . It is central to a happy life. B. It is not the basis for marriage.C. It is not necessarily important in people’s life.D. Many people long for it, but it is unbelievable.74.What factors do young Americans consider when choosing their own marriage partners?A. They will think their social background.B. They think economic background is essential .C. They won’t choose a marriage partner from different religious backgrounds.D. They don’t think social, economic or religious background is important.75.What does an American couple plan to do when they marry?A. They continue to live with their parents after their marriage.B. They plan to live by themselves.C. They plan to earn more money to buy a house.D.

They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue(烤肉)restaurant, and then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks" sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success until they met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milk shake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers" fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营)other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today M cDonald’s is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decades since the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald’s had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.76.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneAll the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61. The housewives learnt about the of free goods _______.A. on TVB. from the managerC. at the supermarketD. from the newspaper62. Mrs. Edwards ________.A. is always very luckyB. had no friendsC. hoped to get free shoppingD. gets disappointed easily63.

Mrs. Edwards went back to the supermarket quickly because she had to _______.A. buy another thingB. talk to the managerC. pay for her shoppingD. find her shopping65. Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.A. pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66. The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave systemthe biggest underground lake in the worldlisted in the Guinness Book of World Recordsthe largest body of water in Tennessee67. The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A. through historyB. since the time of the Indian nationsC. since 1905D. since divers explored them68. Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?A. The Cherokee Indians.B. Tourists.C. Ben Sands.D. Scientists.69. What was found in “The Council Room”?A. A small natural opening.B. A large cave.C. Another series of rooms.D. Many old Indian objects.70. It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____.A. an underground testing siteB. an Indian meeting groundC. a tourist attractionD. a motor boat race coursePassage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does n ot affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71. The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A. the year the author wrote the articleB. 1977C. any year between 1997 and 1983D. 198372. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.several studies have been done in the past few yearsthe omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthadults have especially made studies in this fieldeating little in the morning is good for health73. “…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance”means ______.anyone without breakfast does improve his performancenot giving people breakfast improve performancehaving breakfast does not improve performance, eitherpeople having breakfast do improve their performance74. The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to _______.A. stories, poems, plays, etc.B. written works on a particular subjectC. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America75. What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.breakfast does not affect performanceDr. Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningnot eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenProfessor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However,gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76. College education is _______ in America.A. quite commonB. very rareC. something difficultD. almost impossible77. Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A. entrance examinationsB. taking part in many activitiesC. GPAD. college prep classes78. How can poor students attend private schools?A. Only by working at part-time jobs.B. Only by working at full-time jobs.C. Only by earning scholarships.D. All of above.79. The American college students like to _______ most of all.A. discuss problems on philosophyB. play ballsC. earn enough moneyD. go to the cinemas or theatres80. The best title for this passage is _______.A. Part-time jobsB. American collegeC. Popular activityD. A new systemⅤ.

Grandfathers can fix anything,and grandmothers always have homemade biscuits around.When you are small,it's fun to stay with your grandparents because they always let you do things you can't do at home,and,of course,they buy you things.They are always able to babysit because they don't go out much and actually prefer to see their grandchildren.They are usually good for a small loan now and then doesn't need to be paid back because they turn it into a gift.You respectfully listen to their advice but don't thank them politely for what they do for you,and then don't call or visit them until you need something else.And,of course,you never tell them how dear they are to you because they know how you feel about them anyway.Then all of a sudden,they are no longer there to do the things that only grandparents can do,and you find yourself wishingthat you had told them what they meant to you as people and not just as grandparents.21.What is the position of grandparents in the family according to the writer?A.They are the most important people among family members.B.They are the least important people among family members.C.They are the ones at whom their children or grandchildren usually laugh.D.They are the ones whom their children or grandchildren respect most.22.Grandparents usually do many things except .A.buy their grandchildren thingsB.look after their grandchildrenC.let their grandchildren do things they can't do at home.D.tell their grandchildren how dear they are to home.23.Why don't children need to pay back the loan from their grandparents?A.Their grandparents will forget the loan.B.Their grandparents pay back the loan for them.C.Their grandparents die before they have enough money to pay it back.D.Their grandparents turn the loan into a gift.24.Children never tell their grandparents how dear they are to them because .A.they don't like their grandparents.B.they take for granted everything their grandparents do for them.C.their grandparents know how they feelD.they do not respect their grandparents25.How do children feel after their grandparents die?A.They regret they didn't express their true feelings to them.B.They feel sorry that grandparents are the least valued in the family.C.They miss them very much because no one does the things that grandparents do.D.They wish they had visited and called them more often.Passage 2Many American colleges permit foreign students to live in college housing or housing not owned by the university,such as an apartment.College housing is usually in a dormitory,or dorm for short.Many foreign students say that the dorms are less costly than apartments.They say dorms offer quiet study areas and areas for social activities or sports.They say dorms are close to places they go every day,like the library,computer center and classrooms.They also say that living in the room provides the best chance to get to know other students.Dormitories may have as few as twelve students or as many as one thousand.Some dorms are organized into areas called suites.Suites have several bedrooms,a large living area and a bathroom.Six or more people may live in one suite.Other dorms have many rooms along a hallway.Two students usually live in each room.On each floor there is a large bathroom for all the students who live on that floor.Sometimes there is also a kitchen for preparing food.In most universities ,males and females live in the same dorm.They may even live on the same floor.But they usually may not live in the same room or suite.Most universities have some dorms for men and women.26.Where do some foreign students in American colleges prefer to live?A.In a hotelB.In a houseC.In an apartmentD.In a friend's home27.What may be the reason for a foreign student to choose to live in a dorm?A.It i s cheaperB.It has a big living roomC.It i s cleanerD.It is owned by the university28.How many students can a dorm hold at most according to the passage?A.TwoB.sixC.TwelveD.A thousand29.One of the advantages of living in a dorm is that .A.it is easier for the students to get in touch with other studentsB.the students can go to school library every dayC.the students can use personal computers freelyD.more than two students may live in one room30.Which of following statement is TURE according to the passage? A.Allthe students in a dorm share one large bathroom B.Students are notallowed to cook in the dormC.Female students and male students cannot live in the same dormD.Livingin the dorm is helpful to develop your relation with othersPassage 3Cars are an important part of life in th United States.Without a car, most people feel that they are poor.An even if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor when he has a car.Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers.He probably didn't know how much the car was going to affect American culture.The car made the Unite States a nation on wheels.And it helped make the United States what it is today.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States.First of all,the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it.The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation.With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation.Long-distance have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world.Nowadays,there is a good system of air-service provided by planes.But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one,though.The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular.Americans don't like to wait for a bus or a train or even a plane.They don't like to have to follow an exact schedule.A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time.And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans.But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation.The real solution will have to be a new kind of car,one that does not use so much gas.31,When do most Americans feel they are poor?A.When they don't have a carB.When they live in a huge countryC.When they don't planes.D.When they have a car32.Why do cars become popular in the United States?A.The United States is huge.B.Public transportation is not so good.C.Americans like to be independentD.Americans like to move around33.What public transportation is good in the United States?A.BusesB.TrainsC.TaxisD.Planes34.What has caused a big problem for Americans?A.A new kind of carB.Public transportationC.The gas shortageD.Poor people35.Which of the following is NOT mentioned according to this passage?A.Cars have made the nation on wheels.B.Cars have made the United States have a gas shortgeC.Nearly 80%of the American people have cars.D.Cars have made American independent.Passage 4There is a difference between science and technology.Science is a method of answering theoretical questions;technology is a method of solving practical problem.Science has to do with the facts and relationships between observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships;technology has to do with tools,techniques,and procedures for implementing the finding of science.Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each.Progress in science excludes the human factor.Scientists,who seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth with the highest degree of accuracy and certainty,cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things.What scientists discover may shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution.But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful;besides,we have the choice of refusing to believe it!But it's hardly so with technology and we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead;we do not have the choice of refusing to breathe polluted air;and we do not have the choice of living in a non-atomic age.Unlike science progress,technology must be measured in terms of the human factor.The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve people in general,not merely some people;and future generantions,not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.Technology must be humanistic if it is to lead to a better world.36.Which of the following statements about science is NOT true?A.Scinece provides answers to theoretical questions.B.Scineceseeks to comprehend the universe.C.Scinece aims to discover the inter-connections of facts and rules that explain them.D.Scinece serves people in general and can be measured in terms of the human factor.37.Which of the followig statements about technology is NOT true?A.Technology provides answer to practical problems.B.Technologyseeks to establish theories based on facts. C.Technology helps changethe material world.D.Technology has to do with new desings and ways of making the we use in our daily life.38.According to the author,scientific theories .A.must be strictly objective.ually pay attention to peopleC.should conform to popular opinions.D.always convince everyone39.The author states that technology itself .A.is responsible for pollution and resource exhaustionB.should serve those who wish to gain advantage for themselvesC.will lead to a better w orld if put to wise useD.will inevitably be for bad motivation40.The tone of the author i n this passage is .文章来源:/p/ck.html 更多成考资源资料下载完全免费。

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneOf all the foods we k now, fruit is one of the m ost healthful. It is also one of the m ost tasty foods. Al m ost e v eryone enjoys fruit. Fruit is grown in al m ost e v ery part of the world. There are hundreds of different k inds of fruits. And there are thousands of different v arieties. In the United States alone, there are se v eral hundred types of apples.In general thought, there are separate groups. There are tropical fruits. These are m ost i m portant. In this group, we ha v e bananas and pineapples. They are shipped fro m tropical countries and are eaten all o v er the world.Next co m e the subtropical fruits. The m ost i m portant of these are the citrus (柑橘属果树) fruits. Oranges, tangerines (柑橘), li m es (酸橙), and grapefruit are fa v orites. Other fruits in this class are fi gs, dates, and oli v es.The last group co m es fro m the te m perate z one. In this group are pears, apples, grapes, and plu m s. Many k inds of berries fi t this group, too. Fruits are v ery i m portant to the hu m an diet. Besides being tasty, they pro v ide i m portant acids, salts, and v ita m ins. Also, they are easy to digest. Nutrition experts say that the m ore fruit people eat, the healthier they beco m e.31. Of all the foods we know, fruit is one of the most _______.A. colorfulB. healthfulC. deliciousD. Both B and C32. Pineapples are grown in _______ climate.A. cold and dryB. hot and humidC. snowy and wetD. mild and dry33.

Strawberries probably belong to _______.A. tropical fruitsB. subtropical fruitsC. temperate fruitsD. None of the above35. Fruits are popular because they are easy to _______.A. plantB. digestC. serveD. tastePassage TwoMost people who bother with the m atter at all would ad m it that the E nglish language is in a bad way, but it is generally assu m ed that we cannot by conscious action do anything about it. Our ci v ili z ation is decadent (堕落的) and our language — so the argu m ent runs —m ust ine v itably share in the general collapse. It follows that any struggle against the abuse of language is a senti m ental archais m (拟古), li k e preferring candles to electric light or handso m e cabs to airplanes. Underneath this lies the half conscious belief that language is a natural growth and not an instru m ent which we shape for our own purposes.Now it is clear that the decline of a language m ust ulti m ately ha v e political and econo m ical causes: it is not due to the bad influence of this or that indi v idual writer. But an effect can beco m e a cause, reinforcing the original cause and producing the sa m e effect in an intensi fi ed for m, and so on inde fi nitely.A m an m ay ta k e to drin k because he feels hi m self to be a failure, and then fail all the m ore co m pletely because he drin k s. It is rather the sa m e thing that is happening to the E nglish language. It beco m es ugly and inaccurate because our thoughts are foolish, but the slo v enliness of our language m a k es it easier for us to ha v e foolish thoughts. The point is that the process is re v ersible. Modern E nglish, especially written E nglish, is full of bad habits which spread by i m itation and which can be a v oided if one is willing to ta k ethe necessary trouble. If one gets rid of these habits one can thin k m ore clearly, and to thin k clearly is a necessary fi rst steptowards political re v i v al: so that the fi ght against bad E nglish is not foolish and is not the exclusi v e concern of professional writers.36. Many people believe that nothing can be done about the English language because _______.A. it has been bad for a long timeB. we live in a decadent civilizationC. there are too many bad writersD. people are too lazy to change their bad habits37. T he word “slovenliness” in the second paragraph most probably means _______.A. slow developmentB. careless useC. widespreadD. original influence38. The author believes that _______.A. it is now too late to do anything about the problemB. the decline in the language can be stoppedC. language is a natural growth and cannot be shaped for our own purposesD. the process of an increasingly bad language cannot be stopped39. The author believes the first stage towards the political revival of the language would be _______.A. getting rid of bad habitsB. clear thinkingC. avoiding being foolish about itD. the fight against bad English40. It can be learned from the passage that _______.A. both professional writers and all other people should fightagainst bad EnglishB. professional writers are especially responsible for better language habitsC. bad language habits are inevitable because English is becoming uglyD. any attempt to improve language habits is senseless when people are foolishPassage ThreeReading is not the only way to acquire k nowledge of preceding wor k. There is another large reser v oir which m ay be called experience, and the college student will fi nd that e v ery crafts m an has so m ething he can teach and will generally teach gladly to any college student who does not loo k down upon the m with ill concealed disdain. The infor m ation fro m these quarters differs fro m that in textboo k s and papers chie fl y in that its theoretical part ― the explanations of why things happen ― is frequently quite fantastic. But the de m onstration and report of what happens, and how it happens, are sound e v en if the reports are in co m pletely unscienti fi c ter m s. Presently the college student will learn, in this case also, what to accept and what to reject. One i m portant thing for a college student to re m e m ber is that if Aristotle could tal k to the fi sher m an, so can he.Another source of k nowledge is the v ast store of traditional practices handed down fro m father to son, or m other to daughter, of old country custo m s, of fol k lore. All this is v ery dif fi cult for a college student to explore, for m uch k nowledge and personal experience is needed here to separate good plants fro m wild weeds. The college student should learn to reali z e and re m e m ber how m uch of real v alue science has found inthis wide, confused wilderness and how often scientific disco v eries turned out to be redisco v eries of what had existed in this wilderness long ago.41. The phrase “this wide, confused wilderness” in paragraph 2 refers to _______ .A. personal experienceB. wild weeds among good plantsC. the information from the parentsD. the vast store of traditional practices42. Which of the following statements is supported by the passage?A. The college students have trouble separating good plants from wild weeds.B. Craftsman’s experience is usually unscientific.C. The contemptuous college students will receive no instructions from craftsmen.D. Traditional practices are as important as experience for the college student.43. From this passage we can infer that _______ .A. we’ll invite the craftsman to teach in the collegeB. schools and books are not the only access to knowledgeC. scientific discoveries are based on personal experienceD. discoveries and rediscoveries are the most important source of knowledge44. The author advises the college student to _______ .A. be ill concealed toward the craftsmanB. be patient in helping the craftsman with scientific termsC. learn the craftsman’s experience with a critical eyeD. obtain the craftsman’s experience without rejection45. The main idea of this passage is about _______ .A. what to learn from the parentsB. how to acquire knowledgeC. why to learn from the craftsmanD. how to deal with experiencePassage FourThe proble m of what to do with ato m ic waste, the har m ful unwanted products of ato m ic energy, is being studied by m any scienti fi c m inds.Large ato m ic reactors produce har m ful radioacti v e ele m ents at the sa m e ti m e that they produce energy. The ato m ic waste is so powerful that it will be a danger for centuries. What can be done with it? Where can it be placed so that it will not har m hu m an beings?No one now has the fi nal answer, but hundreds of scientists are searching for it.What would you do with radioacti v e ato m ic waste? Mix it with water and pour it in the ocean? You would not do that if you li v ed near the water. A box the si z e of a pac k age of cigarettes would hold the radioacti v e waste produced by an ato m ic reactor in fiv e m inutes. If you poured it into a body of water m ore than one hundred m iles long and about fifteen m iles wide, this s m all a m ount of ato m ic waste could be disco v ered by a Geiger counter anywhere within its harbors and bays in less than twenty-four hours. This shows the great si z e of the proble m of what to do with ato m ic waste.Ato m ic waste cannot be burned, boiled away, or m ade har m less by m ixing it with other m inerals. We are not wor k ing with a substance that can be destroyed. We are trying to destroy energy, and that is i m possible. The only thing we can do is to k eep the waste in a place where it will be har m less.Throwing it into the ocean is one m ethod that has been tried. Ato m ic waste is placed in m etal barrels that are then put in containers as thic k and strong as stone. The cases are ta k en to the deepest part of the ocean and thrown in. For se v eral reasons, howe v er, throwing the ato m ic waste into the ocean is not a fi nal answer to the proble m.First, the cost of preparing the double containers and ta k ing the m to sea is v ery great. Second, it is not k nown how long these strong cases can endure the deep ocean currents. How long will it be before the m etal and stone cases are bro k en open by the force of the water? How great a danger will the ato m ic waste be when it escapes into the deep ocean.46. Which of the following describes the author’s purpose in writing the above passage?A. To explain and inform.B. To question and criticize.C. To amuse and entertain.D. None of the above.47. Those are the reasons why the atomic waste is so difficult to deal with except _______.A. it can not be burned or boiled awayB. it can be neutralized with other elementsC. its radioactive elements will do harm to environmentD. it is too powerful and its energy can not be destroyed48. From paragraph 4 we know _______.A. people find a good way to deal with atomic wasteB. radioactive elements can melt in waterC. atomic waste can travel very slow in waterD. even small amount of atomic waste has great polluting power49. It can be inferred from the passage _______.A. atomic waste is a great treasure to human beingsB. there is no other place where people can throw atomic wasteC. it is easy to throw atomic waste into waterD. at present the most practical way to deal with atomic waste is to throw it into the ocean50. What do you think the author would talk about after the passage?A. Where we can find radioactive mineral.B. Places where people can throw atomic waste.C. The use of atomic energy.D. The danger of the atomic waste under the sea.Part III Cloze (20 points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.
