Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice. Passage OneRows of new school desks equipped with bike pedals (踏板) are allowing students in Mexico to power through their class work while doing some light exercise, burning off calories in a country known for its alarming obesity rates.But for the students at a high school just outside the bustling city of Monterrey, the new bike desks offer benefits beyond exercise.“When we're physically active it also helps keep us focused,” said 13-year-old Reimy Rodriguez, in her first year at Public High School 24. “It's actually incredible.”A third of all Mexicans are obese and as children age, many pack on the pounds. A recent national study showed about 8% of children under 5 were overweight or obese, which rises to almost 19% for kids between 5-11 years old.Sanjuanita Garcia, the school's principal, points to the bike desks' post-pandemic benefits, especially for boys more vulnerable to excessive weight gain.The school currently features two classrooms fully decked out with the new desks, but the plan is to gradually add them to all 21 classrooms.Large amounts of excess body weight during early years poses numerous dangers to children’s health, including increased risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, bone and joint problems, and asthma.Most children do not outgrow weight problems acquired in early life, and obesity in adulthood is known to contribute to strokes, heart disease, and dementia.11. What can you learn from the first 3 paragraphs?A. Besides burning off calories, the new desks help to keep students focused.B. All schools in Mexico have been equipped with new bikes.C. The bike desks are designed to keep students focused.D. The bike desks are welcomed by both teachers and students.12. How do you understand “more vulnerable to excessive weight gain” in Paragraph 5?A. easier to gain excessive weightB. sensitive to the fact of gaining weightC. gaining weight voluntarilyD. urgent to gain weight13. Obesity in adulthood may cause the following illness EXCEPT________.A. StrokeB. Low blood pressureC. Heart diseaseD. Dementia14. Which of the following can NOT be learned from the passage?A. Mexico is a country with high obesity rates.B. About 8% of children under 5 were overweight or obese.C. Large amounts of excess body weight during early years pose numerous dangers to children’s health.D. The school referred in the text has equipped bike desks to 21 classrooms.15. The best title for this passage could be “________”.A. A New Step to Lose Weight, A Bigger Achievement to Fight ObesityB. The Significance of Proper DesksC. Bike Desks Help Mexican Students Learn While Burning CaloriesD. Alarming Obesity Rates, How Will Mexicans Solve It?Passage TwoThere are many good reasons to continue to explore space. But in space exploration the “real reasons” - that are the most important - are as follows.First, most of us want to be, both as individuals and as societies, the first or the best in some activity. We want to stand out. This behavior is rooted in our genes. We are today the descendants(后代) of people who survived by outperforming others.A second reason is curiosity. Who among us has not had the desire to know what's over the next hill? What child has not been drawn to explore the unfamiliar places beyond the neighborhood?Finally, we humans have, since the earliest civilizations, built monuments(纪念碑). We want to leave something behind to show the next generation, or the generations after that, what we did with our time here. This is why cathedrals (大教堂), pyramids (金字塔) , art galleries and museums have been built.Cathedral builders would understand what I mean by real reasons. The monuments they built required a far greater percentage of their gross domestic product (国内生产总值) than we will ever put into the space business, but we look back across 600 or 800 years of time, and we are still awed (敬畏的) by what the builders accomplished. Those buildings, therefore, also stand monuments to the builders.The return the cathedral builders made on their investment could not have been summarized in a cost/benefit analysis. They gained societal advantages that were probably even more important than learning how to build walls and roofs. The people who started the cathedrals didn’t live to finish them. The society as a whole had to be dedicated to the completion of those projects.16. What kind of behavior is rooted in our genes according to the passage?A. Making money.B. Finding other lives in space.C. Looking for another suitable planet.D. Surpassing others.17. What does it illustrate that the child is drawn to explore the unfamiliar places?A. Humans are curious.B. Humans want to leave something for next generations.C. Humans want to excel.D. Humans have a constancy of purpose.18. Which of the following can NOT be regarded as a monument according to the passage?A. Art galleries.B. Museums.C. Parks.D. Pyramids.19. What's the meaning of the sentence “Those buildings, therefore, also stand monuments to the builders.”?A. It requires a great percentage of GDP.B. It can stand for hundreds of years.C. It serves as a symbol of power.D. It represents the builders’ accomplishments.20. What can be gained from building monuments or cathedrals?A. Increase in GDP.B. Gains of societal advantage.C. Economic returns.D. More investment in space exploration.Passage ThreeWith buying power rising among young, heritage-minded consumers, domestic cosmetics brands are winning hearts with guochao -a trend that is seeing younger buyers drawn to products with Chinese cultural elements.In one case, brands are embracing solar term or jieqi, a concept based onChina's ancient calendar, incorporating elements of lunar and solar calendars, which divides the year into 24 periods. This type of marketing is used to inject a sense of nature into beauty routines.Grain Rain, a Chinese skincare brand, is inspired by the sixth solar term, guyu, referring to early crops, which starts around April 20. It was accompanied by a spring-inspired marketing campaign represented by actress Zhou Dongyu in April 2022. It uses the solar term's traditional association with picking herbs to reinforce the label's herbal skincare branding.Generation Z - those born from the mid-to-late 1990s and into the 2000s and a major consumer group - is being affected by the country's cultural renaissance and the development of the internet. They are more independent in their choices and have a greater sense of national identity, experts said.With the rise of guochao, and the influence of the expansion of China's manufacturing ability, consumers are showing an increased preference for domestic cosmetics brands, according to a recent report issued by consulting firm Ernst & Young. Although China's high-end cosmetics market has been dominated for a number of years by international brands, the market influence of homegrown brands has been rapidly rising.In China's third-tier and smaller cities, the penetration rate of domestic cosmetics surpasses 90 percent, and the growth rate of lip balm and lipstick sales has been over 60 percent for two consecutive years, according to a report launched by Juhuasuan, the group-buying arm of e-commerce giant Alibaba.21. Which of the following is similar to the word “drawn” in the first paragraph?A. paintedB. attractedC. pulledD. pushed22. How many solar terms are there in China?A. 20B. 22C. 24D. 1223. Which of the following is NOT correct?A. Grain Rain is a domestic cosmetic brand.B. The brand Grain Rain was created in April 2022.C. Zhou Dongyu does not like herbal skincare branding.D. Grain Rain starts around April 20.24. Which of the following statements is true?A. More and more Chinese consumers prefers international brands to domestic brands.B. China’s high-end cosmetics market has been occupied by international brands for years.C. Generation Z are more likely to be influenced by others when choosing cosmetics.D. The market influence of homegrown brands has been steady in China.25. What does the word “surpass” mean in the last paragraph?A. come acrossB. pass byC. go acrossD. exceedPassage FourI have become obsessed (着迷) with the idea that people can live the lives they want instead of the lives they have. I have been examining the disconnect (脱节) between where people say they want to be and where they are. We work toward achieving those things that we want, whether it is better health and fitness, a car, a house or a great relationship. However, too many of us are settling for less than we want, since we have been taught to believe that “making a living” takes precedence over (优先于) life.I work with individuals who find themselves at a career crossroads. Many of them are mid-level, mid-career professionals. They have been working in one typeof job or career for a while, and now that job or career no longer makes them happy. They have a feeling that there must be "something else out there” for them, but they don’t know what it is.My experience is that mid-career professionals are looking for work that has meaning and value. They want to feel that what they do in the course of their work will leave some sort of imprint (印记) on the world.I know a lot of people want to think they don't have a choice. They believe they are victims (受害者) of circumstances beyond their control. They are not. No one is a victim of circumstance unless they choose to be. But you get to choose how you look at your life and your aspirations. I can't tell you what your dream job is or what your dreams might look like. I can tell you that you owe it to yourself to consider that it is possible for you.So, consider: What do you really want in your life? Is it possible to live the life of your dreams? I maintain that it is. Do you have to settle for less than you want or deserve? Do you want to make a life instead of just eking out a living (勉强度日)? You can, but only if you want to. You get to choose.26. Why are so many people settling for less than they want?A. Because hope keeps them going.B. Because there is always a disconnect between where people say they want to be and where they are.C. Because they believe “making a living” takes precedence over life.D. Because they are not struggling hard enough.27.What’s happening to those mid-level, mid-career professionals at career crossroads?A. They stop feeling happy any more.B. They feel “something else out there” for them.C. They know clearly what they are pursuingD. They need to find more challenges.28. What's missing for the mid-career professionals?A. Work that has meaning and value.B. Experience that can benefit the organization.C. Partners that will be appreciated.D. Company that makes people feel validated29. If you are struggling with what you want in your work, you should________.A. look for an advisorB. discuss it with your friendsC. remember you can always chooseD. listen to your heart30. To those who think they don’t have a choice, the author's advice is________.A. that they are victims of circumstancesB. that it's up to them to decide their livesC. that something is just out of controlD. that they should eke out a livingPart III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section.

For each numbered blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice.A multi-institutional team of researchers conducted the first study to evaluate how the duration of nightly sleep early in the semester affects first year college students end-of-semester grade point average (GPA). Using Fitbit sleep trackers,they found that students on 51 sleep 6.5 hours a night, but 52 outcomes accumulate when students received less than six hours of sleep a night. The results are 53 in the Feb. 13 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Sleep guidelines 54 teenagers get 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night. Many college students experience irregular and insufficient sleep.David Creswell, the William S. Dietrich II Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience at the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences, led a team of researchers to 55 the relationship between sleep and GPA. College students often push themselves to achieve.“Animal studies have shown how critical sleep is for learning and memory,” said Creswell. "Here we show how this work translates 56 humans. The less nightly sleep a first-year college student gets at the beginning of the school term predicts lower GPA at the end of the term. Lack of sleep may be hurting students’ ability to learn in their college classrooms.”The study evaluated more than 600 first-year students across five studies at three universities. The students wore wrist Fitbit devices to monitor and record their sleep 57 . The researchers found that students in the study sleep on average 6.5 hours a night.More surprisingly, the researchers found that students who receive 58 six hours of sleep experienced a pronounced decline in academic performance.59 , each hour of sleep lost corresponded to a 0.07 decrease in end-of-term GPA.“Once you start dipp ing below six hours, you are starting to accumulate massive sleep debt that can impair a student’s health and study habits, compromising the whole system,” said Creswell. “Most surprising to me was that no matter 60 we did to make the effect go away, i t persisted.”51. A. average B. whole C. purpose D. schedule52. A. positive B. negative C. promising D. biased53. A. conspicuous B. available C. printing D. confirmed54. A. research B. find C. recommend D. require55.

However C. In addition D. To some extent60. A. how B. what C. when D. whichPaper Two 试卷二(55 minutes)Part V Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.Learning is something we do our entire lives. I took up learning a foreign language well into my 30s, which has made me rediscover the joys and challenges of learning. I have studied the language for a few years now, but I have never studied using a textbook or by doing homework and exercises. I know this is the tried and tested method for the vast majority of language learners, but it is just not an appropriate way for me. I learn the language by chatting and listening, making mistakes, carrying on, making the same mistakes again, and at some point, subconsciously the mistake remedies itself somehow. This way of learning has allowed me to express myself with far more clarity, ingenuity, and personalization than any textbook could ever have.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are to write in no less than 100 words on the topic “The Problems I Face on My Learning?” You could base your composition on the Chinese outline given below.你在学习中都遇到了什么样的困难?为了解决这些困难,你打算怎么办?英语试卷(答案)Part I Dialogue Communication (10 minutes, 10 points)1-5: BCDBA 6-10: CDAABPart II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes, 40 points)11-15: AABDC 16-20: DACDB21-25: BCCBD 26-30: CBACBPart III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)31-35: ADCBD36-40: BBDDA41-45: ACADA46-50: ACBBCPart IV Cloze Test (10 minutes, 10 points)51-55: ABBCB 56-60: DAACBPart IV Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)学习是我们一生都在做的事情。

But the first supermarket was opened only fifty years ago in New York.A supermarket is different from other types of stores in several ways. In supermarkets, goods are placed on open shelves. The customers choose what they want and take them to the check-out counter. This means that fewer employees are required than in other stores.The way products are displayed is another difference between supermarkets and many other types of stores. For example, in supermarkets, there is usually a display of small inexpensive items just in front of the check-out counter: candies, chocolate, magazines, cheap books and so on. Why are they there?Most customers who go to a supermarket buy from a shopping list. They know exactly what they need to buy. They shop according to a plan. By the time heor she reaches the check-out counter, the customer is feeling pleased and relaxed because the task of shopping is finished. In this happy mood, the customer sees an attractive display of inexpensive goods that were not on her shopping list. Now she feels like buying something just for her own pleasure and enjoyment. Many customers buy from these displays of products near the check-out counter, and this is exactly what the owner of the supermarket hopes they will do.Another important fact in helping a customer choose what to buy is where a product is placed on a shelf. A product that is placed at eye level on a shelf sells much better than one which is placed on a lower or higher shelf. A product which is easy to see sells best. Manufacturers pay a higher price to have their products placed at eye level on the shelves.The comfort and convenience of shopping centers is another factor which makes them popular with customers. Large parking spaces are provided, and many supermarkets stay open until very late at night.26. According to the passage which statement is NOT TRUE?A. Today supermarkets are found in almost every big city.B. Customers buy inexpensive goods near the counter for pleasure.C. A supermarket is different from other kinds of stores in two ways.D. The first supermarket was opened in New York.27. According to the passage which statement is TRUE?A. The customers prefer supermarkets to other kinds of stores.B. Supermarkets need more clerks than other stores.C. The customers often go to supermarket without a shopping list.D. In supermarkets goods are placed on closed shelves.28. Where do manufacturers want to place their products on the shelves?A. on a lower shelfB. on a higher shelfC. as high as one’s eyesC. as high as one’s waist29. According to the way small inexpensive items are displayed we can infer that the owner of a supermarket has a good knowledge of ___A. biologyB. biophysicsC. physiologyD. psychology30. The shopping centers are popular among customers because of the following factors except_______.A. It is comfortable.B. It has more kinds of goods.C. It provides large parking places.D.

To get more international students, some schools are advertising in other countries and working to keep the number of Chinese students they have. International students usually pay the whole tuition amount, unlike American students, many of whom ask for financial aid. University observers say there are several reasons for the falling numbers of Chinese students. They include trade conflicts and political tensions between China and the United States. There also is increasing competition for college students, visa issues and the growth of China's higher education system.Part V Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are going to write in no less than 100 words on the topic “The Importance of Taking Part in Social Practices While in College” Youcould base your composition on the Chinese outline given below.社会实践有很多种,如演讲比赛、辩论比赛、志愿者活动、支教活动……为什么要参加社会实践活动……英语试卷(A卷)Part I: Dialogue Completion (10 minutes, 10 points)1-5: DCBAC6-10: ABBADPart II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes, 40 points)11-15: BCBDC 16-20: BACDB21-25: CACBC26-30: CACDBPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes, 20 points)31-35: CBBDC36-40: DCCBB41-45: AACBC46-50: ADDCBPart IV Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)美国大学的中国留学生数量一直在增长。

The investment in all forms in the production.答案: CIn only two decades Asian Americans have become the fastest-growing U.S. minority. As their children began moving up through the nation schools, it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nation's best universities, where mathematics, science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character. This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their education abroad arrived in the U. S. with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English. They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after college. Asians feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively. And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree.Most Asian-American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer. An effective measure of parental attention is homework.Asian parents spend more time with their children than American parents do, and it helps. Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success, such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image. Many can remember when Chinese, Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social isolation. Indeed, it was not until 1952 that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.26.While making tremendous achievements at college, Asian-American students ______.A. feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of EnglishB. are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian characterC. still worry about unfair treatment in societyD. generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents答案:C27.What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?A. A solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture.B. Hard work and intelligence.C. Parents'help and a limited knowledge of English.D. Asian culture and the American educational system.答案:A28.Few Asian-American students major in human sciences mainly because ______.A. their English is not good enoughB. they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areasC. there is a wide difference between Asian and Western culturesD. they know little about American culture and society答案:B29. Why do “both explanations” (Line 1, Para.3) worry Asian Americans?A. They are afraid that they would again be isolated from American society in general.B. People would think that Asian students rely on their parents for success.C. Asian Americans would be a threat to other minorities.D. American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian character.答案:A30. The author's tone in this passage is ______.A. sympatheticB. doubtfulC. criticalD. objective答案:D三、词汇和语法31.

成人本科学位证英语考试真题河北Adult undergraduate degree English exam questions in Hebei ProvincePart I: Reading ComprehensionDirections: Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.The popularity of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar power, has increased significantly in recent years. These sources generate electricity without releasing harmful greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. However, there are still challenges to overcome in the transition to a fully renewable energy system.One of the main challenges is the storage of excess energy generated by wind and solar power. Because these sources are intermittent, storing excess energy for use during periods of low generation is crucial. Batteries have been a popular choice for storing energy, but they can be expensive and have limited lifespans. Other technologies, such as pumped hydroelectric storage and compressed air energy storage, are being developed to address this issue.Another challenge is the integration of renewable energy sources into the existing power grid. The grid was designed with centralized power plants in mind, so integrating decentralized sources like wind and solar power can be complex. Grid operators must carefully manage the flow of electricity to ensure stability and reliability.Despite these challenges, the transition to renewable energy is essential for combating climate change and reducing dependence on fossil fuels. Governments, businesses, and individuals must work together to overcome these obstacles and create a sustainable energy future.1. What is one of the main challenges in transitioning to renewable energy sources?2. How are batteries currently being used to store excess energy?3. Why is the integration of renewable energy sources into the power grid difficult?Part II: VocabularyDirections: Choose the best word to complete each sentence.1. The ______________ of the new policy is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.A. purposeB. effectC. resultD. reason2. The government is ______________ new regulations to promote the use of solar energy.A. reducingB. implementingC. increasingD. ignoring3. The ______________ of wind and solar power has led to a decrease in coal consumption.A. popularityB. declineC. stabilityD. oppositionPart III: WritingDirections: Write an essay on the following topic.Topic: The benefits of renewable energy sourcesIn your essay, discuss the advantages of using renewable energy sources like wind and solar power. Provide examples of how these sources can help combat climate change and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Consider the economic and environmental benefits of making the switch to renewable energy.Remember to support your points with relevant examples and evidence. Your essay should be well-organized and demonstrate a clear understanding of the topic.This concludes the English exam questions for the adult undergraduate degree program in Hebei Province. Good luck on your exam!。

Food is weightless, just as men are.Food for space has to be packed in special ways・ Some of it goes into tubes that a man can squeeze into his mouth. Bitesized cookies are packed in plastic・・There is a good reason for covering each bite. The plastic keeps pieces of food from travelling in the spaceship. On the earth very small pieces offood would simply fall to the floor. But gravity doesn't pull them to thefloor when they are out of the plastic in a spaceship. They move here andthere and can get into a man's eyes or into the spaceship's instruments・ If any of the instruments is blocked, the astronauts may have trouble getting safely home・As astronauts travel on longer space trips, he must take time to sleep. An astronaut can fit himself to his seat with a kind of seat belt. Or, if he wants to, he can sleep in a sleeping bag which is fixed in place under his seat.

The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.欧阳歌谷创编2021年2月To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training. But to be skillful requires greater time. The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This person alsoknows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed. A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body・ But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles ・Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture. They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth,A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep .It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.21.Acupuncture is _______________ ・A. a medical operationB. a medical needleC. a medical techniqueD. a medical machine22.Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture?A.He knows where to place the needles without pain.B.He knows where the operation is to be performed.C.He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D.He knows how to use the needles in an operation.23.To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person _______________ .A.several monthsB. a couple of weeksC. a little timeD.almost one month24.It can be learned from the passage that _______________ ・A.the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needlesB.an operation now needs fewer needles than in the pastC.acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 yearsD.few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals25.Which is implied but not stated in the passage?A.The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B.The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture ・C.The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world・D・ Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curingdiseases.Passage FourSpending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna (天线).But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. n What we showed is glucose(葡萄糖)metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity)increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna/ said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals.Volkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation (电仓玆辐射)from cell phones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings, do not shed any light on whether cell phones cause cancer. "This study does not in any way indicate that. What the study does is to show the human brain is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures・H Use of the devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early 1955s,with about 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide.Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain cancers, but a large study by the World Health Organization did not offer a clear answer to this. Vblkowl team studied 47 people who had their brain examinedwhile a cell phone was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the phone was turned off. While there was no complalete change in brain metabolisthey found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the cell: phone antenna when the phone was on.Experts said the results were interesting, but urged that they be understood with great care・"Although the biological significance, if any, of increased glucose metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require further investigation/ Henry Lai of the University of Washington in the U・ S・ and Dr. Lennart Hardell of University Hospital in Sweden, wrote in an article in JAMA・H Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects/1 They wrote.26.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Cell phone use is dangerous・B.Cell phone use causes cance匚C.The human brain is an electromagnetic field.D.There are about 5 billion cell phone users in the world right now.27.Doctor Volkow was astonished because ___________________A.her research has shed light on her understanding of cell phoneB.she found that cell phone exposure is harmful to human brainC.she found that using a cell phone for about 50 minutes could influence or change brain activityD.human brain is not responsive to electromagnetic radiation2& According to the passage, cell phones were launched ___________________ ・A.in the late 1970sB.between 1955 and 1960C.in the late 1955sD.in the early 1990s29.What does the word n that H stand for in the second paragraph?A.Brain activity・B.Her research findings・C.The fact that cell phone use may cause cancer.D.Her research progress・30.Which of the following is an appropriate tire for this passage?A.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Harmful?B.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Useful?C.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Healthy?D.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Weak?Part III Vocabulary and Structure (lOminutes, 10 points)Directions: In this part there are 20 incomplete sentences・ For each 欧阳歌sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

The spot, titled "First," uses numerous still photos to highlight landmarks in Mrs.Clinton's career, while the voiceover says she is "more than a first lady."There is no mention of Mrs. Clinton's rival for New York's Senate seat, New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani.Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson said the ad was "positive" and "biographical," instead of focusing on the first lady's opponent.Mrs. Clinton has previously aired radio ads, but has generally stayed with a strategy of making extensive campaign appearances instead of using television spots, while Giuliani has already run statewide TV ads.Text of Hillary Commercial:First she became a lawyer, named one of the top hundred in America. Her first cause was children, fighting abuse and chairing the board of the Children's Defense Fund. Her first priority was public schools, helping to establish teacher testing. More than a first lady. For 30 years, she's fought for children and families. As New York's senator, she'll fight for better schools and heath care for children.

First Lady's Senator CampaignB. Hillary's TV AdvertisementC. A Rivalry for New York's Senate SeatD. The Focuses of Hillary Campaign答案:AEvery human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem-how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bubs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no conventional fuel is needed to make the campus's six buildings comfortable.Some parts of most modern buildings-theaters and offices as well as classrooms are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing it is called "heat recovery." A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University's system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and re-use it in others.Along the way, pit has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. (76.Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hardworking, overweight male genius.16. Until recently, body heat has caused problems because it ______.A. was difficult to collectB. came in a variety of formsC. was difficult to get rid ofD. tended to be absorbed by physical objects答案:C17. Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstown campus?A. The heat is supplied by human bodies only.B. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and other heat-emitting objects.C. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and conventional fuel.D. The heat is supplied by human bodies, other heat-emitting objects, and conventional fuel.答案:B18.The phrase "even in winter" (in line 8.most nearly means ______.A. if the winter is especially warmB. during all of the year except the winterC. in the winter as well as in other seasonsD. during the evenings in the winter答案:C19. The phrase "heat recovery" refers to a ______.A. method of concealing the source of heatB. special form of air conditioningC. supplementary hot water systemD. way of reclaiming and re-using heat答案:D20. According to the passage which of the following would produce the LEAST amount of heat?A. A fat female who studies hard.B. A thin female who does not study.C. A fat male who does not study.D. A thin male who studies hard.答案:B下载文档润稿写作咨询。

He believes that physical appearance is often culturally programmed. In other words, we learn our looks-we are not born with them. A baby has generally unformed facialfeatures. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around-family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some regions of the United States look so much alike. New Englanders or Southerners have certain common facial characteristics that cannot be explained by genetics. The exact shape of the mouth is not set as birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after permanent teeth are set. For many, this can be well into adolescence. A husband and wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile more than those in other areas. In the United States, for example, the South is the part of the country where the people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York state still less. Many Southerners find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenus smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in densely populated urban areas also tend to smile and greet each other in public less than people do in rural areas and small towns.11. Ray Birdwhistell believes that physical appearance ______.A. has little to do with cultureB. can be influenced by cultureC. is ever changingD. varies from place to place答案: B12. According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed ______.A. before birthB. as soon as one's teeth are permanently setC. sometime after permanent teeth are setD. around 15 years old答案: C13.Ray Birdwhistell can tell what region of the United Statesa person is from by ______.A. how much he or she laughsB. how he or she raises his or her eyebrowsC. what he or she likes bestD. the way he or she talks答案: A14. People who live ______ are more friendly.A. in densely populated areasB. in the countryC. in New York cityD. in the North答案: B15. This passage might have been taken out of a book dealing with _____.A. physicsB. biologyC. chemistryD. none of the above答案:DWhere do pesticides(杀虫剂)fit into the picture of environmental disease? We have seen that they now pollute soil, water, and food, that they have the power to make our streams fishless and our gardens and woodlands silent and birdless. Man, however much he may like to pretend the contrary, is part of nature. Can he escape a pollution that is now so thoroughly distributed throughout our world?We know that even single exposures to these chemicals, ifthe amount is large enough, can cause extremely severe poisoning. But this is not the major problem. The sudden illness or death of farmers, farm workers, and others exposed to sufficient quantities of pesticides is very sad and should not occur. For the population as a whole, we must be more concerned with the delayed effects of absorbing small amounts of the pesticides that invisibly pollute our world.Responsible public health officials have pointed out that the biological effects of chemicals are cumulative over long periods of time, and that the danger to the individual may depend on the sum of the exposures received throughout his lifetime. For these very reasons the danger is easily ignored. It is human nature to shake off what may seem to us a threat of future disaster. "Men are naturally most impressed by diseases which have obvious signs," says a wise physician, Dr.Rene Dubos, "yet some of their worst enemies slowly approach them unnoticed."16.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the sentence "Man, ... is part of nature."(Line 3, Para.1)?A. Man appears indifferent to what happens in nature.B. Man acts as if he does not belong to nature.C. Man can avoid the effects of environmental pollution.D. Man can escape his responsibilities for environmental protection.答案: B17.What is the author's attitude towards the environmental effects of pesticides?A. Pessimistic.B. Indifferent.C. Defensive.D. Concerned.答案: D18.In the author's view, the sudden death caused by exposure to large amounts of pesticides_____.A. is not the worst of the negative consequences resulting from the use of pesticidesB. now occurs most frequently among all accidental deathsC. has sharply increased so as to become the center of public attentionD. is unavoidable because people can't do without pesticides in farming答案: A19.People tend to ignore the delayed effects of exposure to chemicals because ______.A. limited exposure to them does little harm to people's healthB. the present is more important for them than the futureC. the danger does not become apparent immediatelyD. humans are capable of withstanding small amounts of poisoning答案: C20.It can be concluded from Dr.Dubos'remarks that _____.A. people find invisible diseases difficult to deal withB. attacks by hidden enemies tend to be fatalC. diseases with obvious signs are easy to cureD. people tend to overlook hidden dangers caused by pesticides答案: DLet us look now at some examples. A department store's inputs include the land upon which the building is located, the labor of the employees, capital in the form of building,equipment and merchandise, and the management skills of the store managers. On a farm, the operation system is the transformation that occurs when a farmer's inputs (land, equipment, labor, etc.) are converted into such outputs as corn, wheat or milk. The exact form of the conversion process varies from industry to industry, but it is an economic phenomenon that exists in every industry. Economists refer to this transformation of resources into goods and services as the production function. For all operation systems, the general goal is to create some kind of value-added outputs that are worth more to consumers than just the sum of the individual inputs. To the consumers, the resulting products offer utility due to the form, the time, or the place of their availability from the conversion process.However, the process is subject to random fluctuations. Unplanned or uncontrollable influences may cause the actual output to differ from planned output. Random fluctuations can arise from external disruption (fire, floods or lightning, for example) or from internal problems inherent in the conversion process. Inherent variability of equipment, material imperfections, and human errors all affect output quality. In fact, random variations are the rule rather than the exception in production processes; therefore, reducing variation becomes a major management task.The function of the feedback is to provide information linkages. Without some feedback of information, management personnel cannot control operations because they don't know the results of their directions.21. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. The transformation process of a department store from inputs into outputs is different from that of a farm.下载文档。

Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of themthere are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choosethe best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the centre.Passage OneConcerning money or anything else, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect a power struggle. Conflicts between parent and child often centre around the same issue. As children enter adolescence, they begin to demand greater freedom to go where they please, do what they please,and make decisionswithout parental interference. Many American parents do not know how to deal with their teenagers and seek advice from books, lectures, and parent training courses. Parents want to maintain a friendly relationship with their teenagers and also want to guide them so that their behavior will be whatever the parents consider proper and constructive.But in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values, parents and children often disagree about what is important and what is right.Arguments may concern such unimportant matters as styles of dress or hairdos. But quarrels may also concern school work, after school jobs, decisions,use of the family car, dating, and sex behavior. Some families have serious problems with teenagers who drop out of school, run away from home, or use illegal drugs. Because so much publicity is given tothe problem teenager, one gets the impression that all teenagers are troublemakers. Actually, relatively few adolescents do anything wrong, and nearly all grow up into "solid citizens" who fulfill most of their parents’ expectations. In fact, recent studies show that the "generation gap" is narrowing. The vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents’ values and ideas. Many parents feel that they get along with their adolescents quite well.11. According to the writer, conflicts between husband and wife usually reflect__________.A. feeling of hatredB. power straggleC. that they don't care for each otherD. that they may appeal to divorce12. As children enter adolescents, they begin to do the following EXCEPT__________.A. demanding greater freedom to go wherever they pleaseB. making decisions without parental interferenceC. getting married whenever they pleaseD. doing what they please13. "...generation gap is narrowing. "means__________.A. the adolescents now become timidB. parents come to get along with their childrenC. the vast majority of teenagers share most of their parents’values and ideasD. parents and teenager don’t like to quarrel14. Parents and children often disagree about what is important or right because__________.A. they have different styles of lifeB. they hate each otherC. parents think that their children are troublemakersD. they are in a society of rapidly changing social and moral values15. When many American parents don’t know how to deal with their children they seek advice from the following EXCEPT__________.A. neighborsB. parenttraining coursesC. booksD. lecturesPassage TwoAnother thing an astronaut has to learn about is eating in space. Food is weightless, just as men are.Food for space has to be packed in special ways. Some of it goes into tubes that a man can squeeze into his mouth. Bitesized cookies are packed in plastic. .There is a good reason for covering each bite. The plastic keepspieces of food from travelling in the spaceship. On the earth very small pieces of food would simply fall to the floor. But gravity doesn't pull them to the floor when they are out of the plastic in a spaceship. They move here and there and can get into a man's eyes or into the spaceship’s instruments. If any of the instruments is blocked, the astronauts may have trouble getting safely home.As astronauts travel on longer space trips, he must take time to sleep. An astronaut can fit himself to his seat with a kind of seat belt. Or, if he wants to, he can sleep in a sleeping bag which is fixed in place under his seat. But be careful he must put his hands under the belt when he goes to .sleep. This is because he is really afraid that he might touch one of controls that isn't supposed to be touched until later.16. Why would astronauts cover each bite of food in space?A. Because small pieces of food would fall down to the floor.B. Because weightless pieces of food might make trouble when they travel around.C. Because they haven't enough food for longer trips.D. Because astronauts don't want to waste food.17.

Because he doesn’t want to touch any controls when he sleeps.C. Because the instruments of the spaceship are easily broken.D. Because he is afraid that the seat will move.20. The best title of this article is__________.A. Eating and Sleeping in SpaceB. How Astronauts Eat in SpaceC. Food for SpaceD. How Astronauts Sleep in SpacePassage ThreeThe Chinese have used a method called acupuncture (针灸) to perform operations for about4,000 years without putting the patient to sleep. This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body. The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training. But to be skillful requires greater time. The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This person alsoknows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body. But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture. They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth,A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep. It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.21. Acupuncture is__________.A. a medical operationB. a medical needleC. a medical techniqueD. a medical machine22. Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture?A. He knows where to place the needles without pain.B. He knows where the operation is to be performed.C. He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D. He knows how to use the needles in an operation.23. To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person__________.A. several monthsB. a couple of weeksC. a little timeD. almost one month24. It can be learned from the passage that__________.A. the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needlesB. an operation now needs fewer needles than in the pastC. acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 yearsD. few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals25. Which is implied but not stated in the passage?A. The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B. The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.C. The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.D. Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curingdiseases.Passage FourSpending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna (天线). But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. "What we showed is glucose(葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna," said Dr. Nora V olkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals.V olkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation (电磁辐射) from cell phones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings, do not shed any light on whether cell phones cause cancer. "This study does not in any way indicate that. What the study does is to show the human brain is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures. " Use of the devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early 1955s, with about 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide.Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain cancers, but a large study by the World Health Organization did not offer a clear answer to this. V olkow’s team studied 47 people who had their brain examined while a cell phone was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the phone was turned off. While there was no complalete change in brain metabolisthey found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the cell: phone antenna when the phone was on.Experts said the results were interesting, but urged that they be understood with great care. " Although the biological significance, if any, of increased glucose metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require further investigation," Henry Lai of the University of Washington in the U. S. and Dr. Lennart Hardell of University Hospital in Sweden, wrote in an article in JAMA. "Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects." They wrote.26. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Cell phone use is dangerous.B. Cell phone use causes cancer.C. The human brain is an electromagnetic field.D. There are about 5 billion cell phone users in the world right now.27. Doctor V olkow was astonished because__________.A. her research has shed light on her understanding of cell phoneB. she found that cell phone exposure is harmful to human brainC. she found that using a cell phone for about 50 minutes could influence or change brain activityD. human brain is not responsive to electromagnetic radiation28. According to the passage, cell phones were launched__________.A. in the late 1970sB. between 1955 and 1960C. in the late 1955sD. in the early 1990s29. What does the word "that" stand for in the second paragraph?A. Brain activity.B. Her research findings.C. The fact that cell phone use may cause cancer.D. Her research progress.30. Which of the following is an appropriate tire for this passage?A. Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Harmful?B. Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Useful?C. Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Healthy?D. Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Weak?Part III V ocabulary and Structure (10minutes, 10 points) Directions: In this part there are 20 incomplete sentences.
