2013年成人高考英语模拟试题及答案（5）

⽆忧考为⼤家整理的2013年成⼈学位英语模拟试题及答案（5），供⼤家参考：　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 choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. What exactly is a lie？Is it anything we say which we know is untrue？Or is it something more than that？For example，suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you. You say “I wish I could help you but I'm short of money myself.” In fact，you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debt and you don't want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this rally a lie？ Professor Jerald Jellison of the University of Southern California has made a scientific study of lying. （76）According to him，women are better liars than men，particularly when telling a “white lie”，such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks awful. However，this is only one side of the story. Other researchers say that men are more likely to tell more serious lies，such as making a promise which they have no intension of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at：the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or gain in some way. Research has also been done into the way people's behavior changes in a number of small，apparently unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the time，they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. To the trained observer they are saying “I wish I were somewhere else now.” They also tend to touch certain parts of the face more often，in particular the nose. One explanation of this may be that lying causes a slight increase in blood pressure. The tip of the nose is very sensitive to such changes and the increased pressures make it itch. Another gesture which gives liars away is what the writer Desmond Morris in his book Manwatching calls “the mouth cover”。

The study reveals that in cultures where emotional control is the standard，such as Japan，focus is placed on the eyes to interpret emotions. Whereas in cultures where emotion is openly expressed，such as the United States，the focus is on the mouth to interpret emotion.“These findings go against the popular theory that the facial expressions of basic emotions can be universally recognized，” said University of Alberta researcher Dr Takahiko Masuda. “A person's culture plays a very strong role in determining how they will read emotions and needs to be considered when interpreting facial expressions.”These cultural differences are even noticeable in computer emotions(情感符号)，which are used to convey a writer's emotions over email and text message. The Japanese emotions for happiness and sadness vary in terms of how the eyes are drawn，while American emotions vary with the direction of the mouth. In the United States the emotions：)and：－)show a happy face，whereas the emotions：(or：－(show a sad face.However，Japanese tend to use the symbol(∧∧)to indicate a happy face，and(；_；)to indicate a sad face.“We think it is quite interesting and appropriate that a culture tends to mask its emotions. The Japanese would focus on a person's eyes when determining emotions，as eyes tend to be quite subtle(微妙的)，” said Masuda.“In the United States，where open emotion is quite common，it makes sense to focus on the mouth，which is the most expressive feature on a person's face.”16．The text mainly tells us that ________.A．cultural differences are expressed in emotionsB．culture is the key to interpreting facial emotionsC．different emotions are preferred in different culturesD．people from different cultures express emotions differently17．Which emotion is used by Americans to show a happy face？A．(；_；)B．：－)C．：－(D．：(18．If a Japanese wants to detect whether a smile is true or false，he will probably ________.A．read the whole faceB．focus on the mouthC．look into the eyesD．judge by the voice19．People used to believe that ________.A．some facial expressions of emotions were too complex to be recognizedB．people in the world interpreted basic emotions in different waysC．people could only recognize the facial expressions of basic emotionsD．people all over the world understood basic emotions in the same way20．The computer emotions used by the Americans show that ________.A．they express their feelings openlyB．they tend to control their emotionsC．they are good at conveying their emotionsD．they use simpler emotions to show their feelingsⅢ.阅读表达阅读下面短文并回答问题，然后将答案写到相应的横线上(请注意问题后的词数要求)。

In a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the language does not change either. The earliest known languages had difficult grammar but a small, limited vocabulary. Over the century, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew. For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth century gave names to all the new plants and animals they found. In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies. Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too.There are several major(主要) language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently. The languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. About 3 percent of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families.46. The early language had ________.A. a lot of problemsB. words and easy grammarC. words but no grammarD. grammar but not many words47. In the next few hundred years we can expect language to _____.A. stay exactly the sameB. change a great dealC. change only a littleD. ask more words and drop some grammar48. What this article shows is that _____.A. languages change fastB. languages really don't want to changeC. language really with changes in societyD. Spanish and English changeB 篇In Canada you can find dogs, cats, horses, etc. in almost every family. These are their pets. People love these pets and have them as their good friends. Before they keep them in their houses, they take them to animal hospitals to give them injections（注射）so that they won’ t carry disease. They have special animal food stores, though they can get animal food in almost every kind of store. Some people spend around two hundred Canadian dollars a month on animal food. Whenyou visit people’ s houses, they would be very glad to show you their pets and they are very proud of them. Y ou will also find that almost every family has a bird feeder in their garden. All kinds of birds are welcomed to come and have a good meal. They are free to come and go and nobody is allowed to kill any animal in Canada. They have a law against killing wild animals. If you killed an animal, you would be punished. If an animal happened to get run over by a car, people would be very sad about it.People in Canada have many reasons to like animals. One of them might be: Their family ties are not as close as ours. When children grow up, they leave their parents and start their own life. Then the old will feel lonely. But pets can solve this problem. They can be good friends and never leave them alone.49. The passage mainly talks about ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿.A. how to keep disease from petsB. pets in CanadaC. how to take good care of petsD. life of the old in Canada50.

Seeing it falling down，I said to my kids：“I'm going to Afghanistan.”And a few weeks later，International Medical Corps sent me to set up 20 clinics in provinces where people had no health care.In these field clinics surrounded by frightening shoots or deadly bombs，we were eventually serving 27,000 patients a month in a very busy schedule.Tired and nervous，I gradually had a sense of achievement, a sense of purpose，and my depression went away.In the years to follow，I went to Indonesia after the tsunami(海啸)，Pakistan after the earthquakes，Sudan after the civil war, and Iraq after more and more bombs.Each time after disasters one after another, hundreds of people were killed，wounded and many more had to flee.We once set up movable clinics in an area with 19,000 refugees,_and it was supposed to hold 13,000 originally.Flu broke out, one of the biggest killers of kids in refugee camps, and it spread like wildfire.Water and food were also serious problems.“Adventures or not？” I often asked myself.When my wife passed away，I thought my life was done.But in reality, it was just getting started.At the end of her life，she went unconscious.I held her head in my hands and told her of all the places we would visit and the exciting adventures we would have.I think about the moment many times during my “adventures”．I didn't know how predictive those words would be.But I know that she is still with me.31．Where has the doctor been in the past few years?A．Some countries where he could set up clinics.B．Some African countries where flu broke out.C．The places where the earthquakes happened.D．The places where the horrible disasters struck.32．How would the doctor describe his life after he had worked in Afghanistan?A．Tired and troublesome.B．Busy and risky.C．Meaningful and helpful.D．Frightening and depressing.33．The underlined word “refugees” means people________.A．who are robbed, killed, or woundedB．who suffer from flu in movable clinicsC．who like to take adventuresD．who have lost homes because of disasters34．Which of the following is true according to the passage?A．The doctor's wife encouraged him to work in foreign countries.B．What the doctor said to his wife before her death became reality.C．The doctor's adventures made him understand the love of his wife.D．With the true love of his wife，the doctor started to change his life.Ⅳ.任务型读写请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。
