职称英语等级考试综合类(A级)试题及答案10
职称英语等级考试综合类(A级)试题及答案10第5部分:补全短文·46 c 文章的题目是:用较快的速度阅读。
第二段的第一个句子说的是:在美国五个小学生中至少有一个在学习阅读方面有困难,虽然这些学生其他科目都不错。
这是一个总的说明,接着的句子应该具体化了。
c就是进一步的说明:科学家说:这些孩子中的许多人的困难是如何使得读音和字母对应起来。
47 B 第四段的第一句话说的是:每天老师帮助他们弄懂字母如何表达叫做音素的语音单位的。
光弄懂是不够的,还需要实践。
B就是实践:学生还练习朗读和拼写。
48 E 第六段说的是:作为研究的一部分,研究人员用一个特殊的机器拍摄学生大脑的动作照片。
B说的是:照片显示左大脑后部的活动增加了。
非常连贯。
49 D 倒数第二段的第一句讲的是试验组的情况,D讲的是用传统方法的情况。
放在一起可以构成对比,也很连贯。
50 F 最后一段的第一句说的是:然而,有些研究人员仍然不太相信这一研究。
从提供的选项中的第一个词组可以看出,只有F是合适的,因为它的起始词是“They’,回指“some researchers”。
第六部分:完形填空51 B 该段中有这样一个短语“particularly difficult to catch”(很难找到他),“wellknown for keeping himself to himself”是“以与世隔绝为大家熟知”。
可以看出,根据下文,用“well known”最为合适。
52 A hold:抱住;拿住。
run into和bump into都有“撞上”的意思,这是不由一个人的主观意志所能控制的。
53 D 对第一段做解释时,提到了上下文可以帮助我们做出正确的判断。
紧随其后的是“It came as a complete surprise.”(这个奖来得很突然)。
“shock”和“surprise”意思很接近,因此选择“shocked”是对的。
54 c like作“喜欢”解时是动词,而此处需要的是一个名词。

At any rate, that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty's government - every man of them. That is the will of parliament and the nation. The British empire and the French republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous states have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail.

职称英语综合类A级真题及答案(完整版)(4)c. female badgers did not mix with male badgers.d. they may get some of the water they needed from fruit.39. which of the following is a typical feature of male badgers?a. they don’t run very quickly.b. they defend their territory from other badgers.c. they hunt over a very large area.d. they are more aggressive than females.40. what happened when honey badgers got used to humans around them?a. they became less aggressive towards other creatures.b. they lost interest in people.c. they started eating more.d. other animals started working with them.第三篇why so many childrenin many of the developing countries in africa and asia, the population is growing fast. the reason for this is simple: women in these countries have a high birth rate---from 3.0 to 7.0 children per woman. the majority of these women are poor, without the food or resources to care for their families. why do they have so many children? why don't they limit the size of their families? the answer may be that they often have no choice. there are several reasons for this.one reason is economic. in a traditional agricultural economy, large families are helpful. having more children means having more workers in the fields and someone to take care of the parents in old age. in an industrial economy, the situation is different. many children do not help a family;instead, they are anexpense. thus, industrialization has generally brought down the birth rate. this was the case in italy, which was industrialized quite recently and rapidly. in the early part of the twentieth century, italy was a poor, largely agricultural country with a high birth rate. after world war ii, italy’s economy was rapidly mod ernized and industrialized. by the end of the century, the birth rate had dropped to 1.3 children per woman, the world's lowest.however, the economy is not the only important factor that influences birth rate. saudi arabia, for example, does not have an agriculture-based economy, and it has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. nevertheless, it also has a very high birth rate (7.0). mexico and indonesia, on the other hand, are poor countries, with largely agricultural economies, but they have recently reduced their population growth.clearly, other factors are involved. the most important of these is the condition of women. a high birth rate almost always goes together with lack of education and low status for women. this would explain the high birth rate of saudi arabia. there, the traditional culture gives women little education or independence and few possibilities outside the home. on the other hand, the improved condition of women in mexico, thailand, and indonesia explains the decline in birth rates in these countries. their governments have taken measures to provide more education and opportunities for women.another key factor in the birth rate is birth contro1. women may want to limit their families but have no way to do so. in countries where governments have made birth control easily available and inexpensive, birth rates have gone down. this is the case in singapore, sri lanka, and india, as well as in indonesia, thailand, mexico, and brazil. in these countries, women have alsobeen provided with health care and help in planning their families.these trends show that an effective program to reduce population growth does not have to depend on better economic conditions. it can be effective if it aims to help women and meet their needs. only then, in fact, does it have any real chance of success.41. in a traditional agricultural economy, a large familya. can be an advantage.b. may limit income.c. isn't necessary.d. is expensive.42. when countries become industrialized,a. families often become larger.b. the birth rate generally goes down.c. women usually decide not have a family.d. the population generally grows rapidly.43. according to this passage, italy today is an example of ana. agricultural country with a high birth rate.b. agricultural country with a low birth rate.c. industrialized country with a low birth rate.d. industrialized country with a high birth rate.44. saudi arabia is mentioned in the passage because it shows thata. the most important factor influencing birth rate is the economy.b. factors other than the economy influence birth rate.c. women who have a high income usually have few children.d. the birth rate depends on per capita income.5. in mexico, thailand, and indonesia, the government。

请根据文章的内容,从每题所给的4个选项中选择1个最佳答案,涂在答题卡相应的位置上。
第二篇Star QualityA new anti-cheating system for counting the judges' scores in ice skating is flawed,according to leading sports specialists.Ice skating's governing body announced the new rules last week after concerns that a judge at the Winter Olympics may have been unfairly influenced.Initially the judges in the pairs figure-skating event at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City voted 5 to 4 to give the gold medal to a Russian pair,even though they had a fall during their routine.But the International Skating Union suspended the French judge for failing to reveal that she had been put under pressure to Vote for the Russians.The International Olympics Committee then decided to give a second gold to the Canadian runners-up(亚军).The ISU,skating's governing body, now says it intends to change the rules.In future 14 judges will judge each event,but only 7 of their scores--selected at random--will count,The ISU won't finally approve the new system until it meets in June but already UK Sport.the British Government's sports body.has expressed reservations."I remain to be convinced that the random selection system would offer the guarantees that everyone concerned with ethical sport is looking for'',says Jerry Bingham,UK Sport's head of ethics(伦理).A random system can still be manipulated,says Mark Dixon,a specialist on sports statistics from the Royal Statistical Society in London."The score of one or two judges who have been nobbled(受到贿赂)may still be in the seven selected." Many other sports that have judges,including diving,gymnastics,and synchronized swimming.have a system that discards the highest and lowest scores.If a judge was underpressure to favour a particular team,they would tend to give it very high scores and mark down the opposition team,so their scores wouldn't count.It works for diving,says Jeff Cook,a member of the international government body's technical committee."If you remove those at the top and bottom you're left with those in themiddle,SO you're getting a reasonable average.''Since the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, diving has tightened up in its system still further.Two separate panels of judges score different rounds of diving during top competitions.Neither panel knows the scores given by the other.‘'We have done this to head off any suggestion of bias."says Cook.Bingham urged the ISU to consider other options."Tms should involve examining the wayin which other sports deal with the problem of adjudicating(裁定)on matter of style andpresentation,"he says.36 Who won the gold medal in the pairs figure-skating event?A The Russian pair.B The Canadian pair.C Both the Russian pair and the Canadian pair.D The French pair.37 According to the new rules proposed by the ISU,which of the following is right?A The number of judges will be doubled.B Only half of the judges will score.C Only some selected judges will score.D Only half of the scores will count.38 What does Jerry Bingham express by saying "I remain to be convinced"?A His anger.B His criticism.C His agreement.D His doubt.39 The attitude of those concerned in the UK to the new rules proposed by ISU Can be best described asA indifferent.B reserved.C enthusiastic.D positive.40 Which of the following is NOT true of the scoring system for diving?A It is more biased.B It is more reasonable.C It is fairer.D It is tighter.第三篇Eat More,Weigh Less,Live LongerClever genetic detective work may have found out the reason why a near。

The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 through 45.The human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is system of nerves, we couldn’t know what’s happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture (折磨) is based on the human body being open to pain.But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir (苦行僧) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle right through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, “This will hurt a little,” it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation (感觉) , we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life.41. The human body has developed a system of nerves that enable us to _________.A) stay relaxedB) avoid painC) stand tortureD) feel pain42. what does the writer mean by saying “we pay for our sensitivity” in the first paragraph?A) We have to take care of our sense of pain.B) We suffer from our sense of feeling.C) We should try hard to resist pain.D) We are hurt when we feel pain.43. When the author mentions the Indian fakir, he shows that _________.A) fakirs possess magic powerB) Indians are not afraid of painC) people can learn to cope with painD) some people are born without a sense of pain44. What is essential for people to stand pain according to the writer?A) Their relaxation.B) Their interest.C) Their nerves.D) Their attitude.45. The author believes that _________.A) feeling pain is part of our lifeB) pain should be avoided at all costsC) feeling pain can be an interesting thingD) magic power is essential for reducing painTask 3Directions: The following is an advertisement.
