苏天教育江苏专转本模拟考试英语试卷Part One Reading Comprehension（共20小题，每小题2分，共40分）Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choice marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without waiting his time in useless regrets.Childhood is the time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has good parents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child—things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older people are; he is continually being told what to do and what not to do. Therefore, a child is not happy as he wishes to be.When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from the discipline of school and parents; but at the same time he is forced to accept responsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room, he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself into trouble. If, however, he works hard, goes by the law and has good health, he may feel satisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up for himself his own position in society.Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessary for the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help others with advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children making progress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and, perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happiness of having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time when they can lie back and rest, leaving everything to others.1. The happiest people should be those who _____________.A. face up to difficulties in lifeB. hope to be young againC. enjoy life in different agesD. wish to be grown up2.

The best title of the passage might be ______________.A. Pains and AgesB. Differences in AgesC. The Best Age to BeD. Happiness and AgesPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.In March 2004, Joe Ryan got a notice from a billing agency for a hospital near Denver, Colorado. The hospital wanted payment for surgery totaling $ 41,188. Ryan had never set foot in that hospital. Obviously there was some mistake. “I thought it was a joke,” says Ryan.But when he called the billing agency, nobody laughed. Someone, who’s also named Joe Ryan, using Ryan’s Social Security number, had indeed been admitted for surgery. He figured clearing this up would take a just few phone calls.Two years later, Ryan continued to suffer from the damage to his credit rating and still doesn’t know if his medical record has been cleared of wrong information.Joe Ryan was the victim of a little-known but frightening type of consumer cheating that is on the rise: medical identity theft, which involves using your name to get drugs, expensive medical treatment and even cheating insurance payments.As Ryan discovered, money isn’t the half of it. When someone steals your name to receive health care, his medical history becomes part of your record—and setting the record straight can be extremely difficult. That’s because, in part, the information is handed out among dozens of caregivers, from doctors to medicine stores to insurance companies and labs.“I wanted to help straighten this out,” says Ryan, “so I went to the hospital, and they had a three-inch-thick record for me, but they wouldn’t let me see it. I showed them my ID, and they said that’s not Joe Ryan’s signature. Well, of course not! They had this other guy’s signature.”Ryan had fallen into a victim’s Catch-22: If your record doesn’t appear to be yours, you may not have the right to read it, much less change it.Ryan’s next step was a visit to the police department. But the police said that there was not much they could do, that the local law enforcement has little experience with medical ID theft, and cases like this can end up being considered a civil matter.6. The billing agency sent Joe Ryan a notice to ___________.A. play a joke on him for medical treatmentB. inform him of the payment for his surgeryC. clear up the wrong information in his medical recordD. correct the mistakes about payment for his surgery7. Joe Ryan initially thought his problem was ___________.A. easy to settleB. difficult to settleC. impossible to solveD. unnecessary to solve8. The number of the medical identity theft cases is ___________.A. increasingB. decreasingC. countableD. changeable9. An even worse consequence of medical ID theft is ___________.A. some trouble in obtaining insurance paymentB. a big loss of money and damage to credit ratingC. the widely spread medical information of the victimD. the difficulty in changing the wrong medical history10. It can be known that the medical ID theft is ___________.A. a civil matterB. a medical caseC. a political issueD. a domestic eventPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Parents can have a great impact on the development of their children’s creativity in art. But first, they have to know how. They may find the following advice interesting and instructive.Encourage free drawing rather than coloring books. Coloring books stop the possibility of self-expression. A child may just enjoy colorful pictures and never learn how to express himself. As an art teacher says, “Children have a very powerful instinct to draw freely and roughly. Such practice makes them learn language easily.” In fact, a child expresses himself in rough drawing. This is the beginning of literacy and creativity. Also, parents should not teach their kids “how”to draw and they should not make their kids draw realistic pictures to entertain themselves. Experience tells us that such teaching from the parents will discourage children, making them think they can’t do it the “right” way.Competition and rewards should also be avoided in the process of artistic creation. A child’s natural instinct to create will disappear if he or she thinks about prize while drawing.Parents should be role models for their kids. They should not say things like, “I can’t draw a straight line.” Instead, they should learn to say, “I love to create.” This teaches children that the process of creation is more important than the product. If children see their parents drawing, cooking or building creatively, they will do the same.Buy a notebook for your child to use every day. This can be a journal for making up stories, writing ideas and drawing pictures. Even the youngest child can use it to draw freely and roughly, expressing himself.Take your child to places that promote ideas and creativity. Art museums, science centers, libraries and children’s museums all are great places to see other people’s creativity. That will inspire children to make their own creations and inventions.Give children choices and free time. Some of the best ideas come from daydreaming and imagining.In short, parents should allow their kids to have the freedom to invent for themselves. That means not always teaching and commanding.11. To develop their artistic creativity, children should be encouraged to ___________.A. draw freely and roughlyB. learn to draw realistic picturesC. know how to draw before they startD. learn to draw good pictures to get prizes12. Parents are encouraged to be role models for their kids because ___________.A. parents love to createB. parents can draw straight linesC. children tend to follow their parents’ examplesD. children like the product of their parents’ creativity13. It can be inferred from the passage that in artistic creation ___________.A. product is more important than processB. process is more important than productC. process and product are equally importantD. both process and product are unimportant14. To be inspired by other people’s creativity, children should ___________.A. write ideasB. make up storiesC. buy good notebooksD. visit museums, libraries, and science centers15. The main idea of this passage is that ___________.A. children should be encouraged to draw freelyB. children should follow their parents’ examplesC. parents should know how to cultivate their kids’ creativityD. most parents teach their kids confidently and instructivelyPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.It is often said that politeness costs nothing. In fact, it seems that a little more politeness could save businesses £5 billion every year. Frequently hearing the phrase “thank you” or “well done” means the same to staff as a modest pay rise.Praise and encouragement also makes employees more likely to work hard and stay in their jobs. In this way the business companies can save the cost of finding new employees. A third of 1,000 workers surveyed by a consulting firm said they did not get thanked at all when they did well—and a further third said they were not thanked enough. In both cases, staff said they felt undervalued, meaning they were less likely to exert themselves and were more likely to look for employment elsewhere.The result of the survey shows that there would be around £5.2 billion loss in productivity if the employees felt less appreciated. According to the firm, praising staff has the same positive effect as a 1 percent pay rise—and works out much cheaper for bosses. Three out of four employees said that regular acknowledgement by their bosses was important to them, but only a quarter said they were actually given as much praise as they felt they needed.The survey found that those in blue-collar and manual jobs were less likely to be given any recognition for doing well. But it seems that they most need such praise.In regional terms, Scottish staff felt most undervalued. Four out of ten workers said they were never thanked and eight out of ten said they would like more praise. However, workers in the North-East are less impressed by being praised by the boss, as only 69 per cent said they felt the need to be told “well done” regularly. Older employees and women need the most reassurance, according to psychologist Averil Leimon. She said that words of praise did more than creating a pleasant place to work—they could even promote profits.16. The survey indicates that politeness could save businesses a huge amount of money every year because__________.A. politeness makes employees expect pay riseB. politeness is less likely to make staff work harderC. politeness helps employers find proper employeesD. politeness helps employers reduce the cost of staff employment17. Workers doing well but not getting thanks from their bosses will probably ____________.A. leave for jobs elsewhereB. work harder to get praise from their bossesC. “exert themselves in their work to get pay riseD. work harder to get encouragement from their bosses18. According to the survey, ___________ of the employees believed they were praised as much as expected.A. 25%B. 30%C. 40%D. 75%19. The survey shows that those who do not pay much attention to praise are _____________.A. staff from ScotlandB. workers in North-EastC. older and women employeesD. employees of blue-collar and physical jobs20. It can be concluded from the passage that ____________.A. blue-collar employees are expecting more pay riseB. pleasant workplace could promote business profitsC. pay rise is an important motivation for manual workersD. words of praise could possibly increase business profitsPart Two Vocabulary and Structure（共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.
