But that is not the case. In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more diferent.The Greeks were tmuly democratic , often without a single leader but instad govemed by a group of men chosen by the people. The Romans were semi-democratic. They had a governing Senate , but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders. But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic. Theirbuildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples，columns , and decorative forms. The Romans, on the other hand , were moreengineers than artists. They concentrated their efforts on urban planning , well-functioning water pipes, and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar. Both peoples ate very well indeed: lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits, healthy meals ，holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact, it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lfe in their warm, sea-oriented climates, and they both lived a full life.40.

S. Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide 20 to 40 pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases. The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed toAmerican soldiers in Europe. Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers. By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home, the American candy bar business was assured. " Why? Because the returming soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same. As a result, from that time on and through the 1920' s, candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States, and as many as 40 ,000 different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston, and New York. The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar , com syrup, and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48. Why did M. S. Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?——[单选题]A He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popular.C There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair.正确答案：B49、Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?——[单选题]A The adding of new materials.B The demand in the army during WWI.C The purchase of new machines.D The appearance of smaller candy bars.正确答案：B50、What does the underlined word“seat" in the last paragraph most probably mean?——[单选题]A FocusB PositionC ChairD Center正确答案：D51、What is this passage mainly about?——[单选题]A A World Fair held in Chicago in 1893.B The popularity of the American candy bar industry.C The candy bar industry during World Ward ID The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.正确答案：B52、 Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America ’s much-beloved authors ，creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and a dults alike, such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, The Prince and The Pauper , and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Twain passed away in 1910, leaving behind a treasure of great literature. But now , 100 years after his death, he' ll have a brand new book on the shelves: a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb: it was his wish that publishers wait until 100 years afer his death to publish his memoirs (自传), which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than 5 ,000 pages, and likely won' t be all sunshine and roses. It seems that Twain habored some biternes against former gnfiends and ex fiends. He also writes negatively about plitins of his day, such as Teddy Roosevlt.It' s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn' t want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sectiois of the memoirs have been periously published ，the autobiography has never been avilable in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the Classic books. The first volume of the set will be available in November, and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.“There are so many bogaphies of Twain, and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography, ”edior Robert Hirst told The Independent.“ But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote. By pubising Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following statements is TRUE of Mark Twain?——[单选题]A He left behind lots of moneyB His works were written for children.C His works are full of adventures.D He is famous for his great works.正确答案：D53、What can we learn about Mark Twain' s autobiography from the passage?——[单选题]A It has been published against Twain’s will.B It shows Twain’s respect for politicians.C It will be published in full.D It has been recently finished.正确答案：C54、What does the underlined word“trilogy" i n. Paragraph 4 mean?——[单选题]A A work in three volumes.B An imaginative work.C A collection of stories.D Memoirs of famous people.正确答案：A55、What is the purpose of publishing Twain’s autobiography?——[单选题]A To supplement other biographies.B To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C To introduce Mark Twain' s works.D To expose new discoveries about Mark Twain.正确答案：B56、V.

It was a cheap self-service place with long tables to sit at. I put my heavy bag down on the floor, put the newspaper and chocolate on the table to keep a place and went to get a cup of coffee.When I came back with the coffee, there was someone in the next seat. It was one of those wild-looking boys, with dark glasses and old clothes, and his hair was colored bright red at the front. Not so unusual these days. What did surprise me was that he‟d started to eat my chocolate!Naturally, I was rather uneasy about him, but I didn‟t want to make more trouble. I just looked down at the front page of the newspaper, tasted my coffee and took a bit of chocolate. The boy looked at me closely. Then he took a second piece of my chocolate. I could hardly believe it. Still I didn‟t say anything to him. When he took a third piece, I felt more angry than uneasy. I thought, “Well, I shall have the last piece.” and I got it.The boy gave me a strange look, then stood up.

Fire!” what terrible words to hear when one wakes up in a stran ge house in the middle of the night! It was a large, old wooden house----the sort that burn beautifully-----and my room was on the floor. I jumped out of the bed, opened the door and stepped out into the passage. It was full of thick smoke.I began to run, but as I was still only half-awake, instead of going towards the stairs I went in the opposite direction. The smoke grew thicker and I could see flames all around. The floor became hot under my bare feet. I found an open door and ran into a room to get to the window. But before I could reach it, one of my feet caught in something soft and I fell down. The thing I had fallen over felt like a bundle of clothes, and I picked it up to protect my face from the smoke and heat. Just then the floor gave way under me and I crashed to the floor below with pieces of burning wood all around me.I saw a flaming doorway in front, put the bundle over my face and ran. My feet burned me terribly, but I got through. As I reached the cold air out side, my bundle of clothes gave a thin cry.I nearly dropped it in my surprise. Then I saw a crowd gathered in the street. A woman in a nightdress and a borrowed man‟s coat screamed as she saw me and came running madly.“My baby! My baby!” she cried. The crowd cheered wide ly as she took the smoke-blackened bundle out of my arms. I had some difficulty in recognizing her. She was the Mayor‟s wife, and I have saved her baby.

It was still too early for me to have my evening meal, so I walked along the seafront (滨海马路) for about an hour until I began to feel hungry. By that time I was not far from a favorite restaurant of mine, where I often went to eat two or three times a week. I knew the owner well and frequently complimented (赞美, 恭维) him on hisexcellent cooking.I went into the restaurant, which was already crowded, and ordered my meal. While I was waiting for the soup to arrive, I looked around to see if I knew anyone in the restaurant. It was then that I noticed that a man sitting at a corner table near the door kept glancing in my direction, as if he knew me, I certainly did not know him, for I never forgot a face. The man had a newspaper open in front of him, which he was pretending to read, though all the while I could see that he was keeping an eye on me. When the waiter brought my soup, the man was clearly puzzled by the familiar way in which the waiter and I addressed each other. He became even more puzzled as time went on and it grew more and more obvious that I was well known in the restaurant. Eventually he got up and went into the kitchen. After a few minutes he came out again, paid his bill and left without another glance in my direction.When I had finished and was about to pay my bill, I called the owner of the restaurant over and asked him what the man had wanted. The owner was a little embarrassed by my question and at first did not want to tell me. I insisted. “Well,” he said, “that man was a detective.” “Really?” I said, considerably surprised. “He followed you here because he thought you were a man he was looking for,” the owner of the restaurant said. “When he came into the kitchen, he showed me a photograph of the wanted man. He certainly looked like you! Of course, since we know you here, I was able to convince him that he had made a mistake.” “It‟s lucky I came to a restaurant where I am known,” I said, “otherwise I might have been arrested!”91.When the author got to his favorite restaurant, it was ___________ .A. already nine o‟clockB. eight o‟clock on the do tC. about two minutes past eightD. slightly later than eight o‟clock92.The man sitting at the corner table near the door kept glancing in the direction of the author because he was __________________ .A. interested in the personality of the authorB. making a study of the authorC. looking up and down the authorD. keeping a lookout over the author93.The author was followed by the detective probably because he ___________ .A. took after a suspectB. was similar to a criminal in personalityC. was an accompliceD. looked like a murderer94.The detective had a newspaper open in front of him in order to ____________ .A. read it in detailB. cover up what he was really doing thereC. have it recheckedD. wait for his food95.According to the text, if the author had been a stranger in the restaurant, he would have been ____________________.A. taken to courtB. followedC. capturedD. sentenced to a few years‟ imprisonmentPassage DAt Harton College---an English boarding school for boys---there are many rules. Fifteen-year-old Bob Sanders often breaks these rules.The boys can go into town in the afternoon after classes. But they must return to the school at six o‟clock. One afternoon B ob walked to the town. He looked at the shops and then went to the cinema. After the film he looked at his watch. It was after eight o‟clock.

It was on the third floor. The window was open. But it was quite dark and he went round the school building to another door. That one was locked too. He couldn‟t climb up the wall very easily. Then he saw another open window on the ground floor. It was the window of the headmaster‟s study.He looked into the room-----no one was there. Bob quickly climbed on to the window sill (窗台) and jumped into the room. Just then he heard a noise. Then some one turned on a light in the corridor. Bob looked around and then hid under the sofa. One minute later, Mr. Mannering, the headmaster, came in. He turned on the light on his desk, and sat down on the sofa. Then he opened a book and began to read.Bob lay under the sofa as quietly as possible. He could not move. The floor was cold and uncomfortable. He looked at the headmaster‟s shoes and socks for an hour.“Why doesn‟t he get up and go to bed?” he thought.Finally, the headmaster closed his book and stood up. He put the book on a shelf and walked towards the door.“Thank heavens, he didn‟t find me under the sofa!” thought Bob.Then Mr. Mannering stopped and spoke towards the sofa. “Would you turn off the light when you leave?” he said and left the study.96.According to the passage, it is required that students of Harton College _________ .A. come back to the college at six o‟clock if they go to town after classesB. may stay out until midnight if they likeC. should leave school when class is overD. may do whatever they like97.When Bob realized it was too late to return to Harton College as required, it was already ___________ .A. 8:00B. 9:00C. later than 8:00D. midnight98.Bob stole into the courtyard of his college by means of ________ .A. the main entranceB. going around the school building to another doorC. jumping over the wallD. climbing into the window of his headmaster‟s study99.Bob hid himself under the sofa probably because he was afraid of ______________ .A. being punished for his theftB. being found to have returned lateC. being dismissed for his wrongdoingD. being capture alive on the spot100.In the light of what his headmaster said towards the sofa, it can be safely concluded that the headmaster had already ________________ .A. excused BobB. forgiven BobC. found Bob hiding under the sofaD. punished BobV.

The legal limit is.08.Sergeant J.Litchie said Dennison also had been charged with a DUI in January when she crashed at the same spot and registered a blood alcohol level of.380.If found guilty of the second offense,she faces up to10years in prison and fines in excess of$2,000.A telephone message the Associated Press left at a listing for Dennison in Truckee on Tuesday was not immediately returned. 36.Who is the author of the passage?A.A passenger.B A policeman.C.A judge.D.A journalist.37.Why couldn't the woman stand and walk?A.She had lost too much blood.B.She was scared.C She drank too much.D.She had a sudden stomachache.38.Why could the woman be Imprisoned for10years?A.She was caught DUI twice.B.She had her car crashed.C.She refused to take a blood test.D.She drove without a driving license.39.What does the word"nabbed"in the title mean?A.Arrested.B.Attacked.C.Charged.D.Punished.Passage TwoThere were many different cultures in the ancient world,butthe two that had the most influence on European and American civilizations were the Greek and the Roman.Often these two cultures are lumped together in our minds,as if they were really exactly alike.But that is not the case.In many ways the Greeks and the Romans could not have been more different.The Greeks were truly democratic,often without a single leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the people.The Romans were semi-democratic.They had a governing Senate,but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders.But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic.Their buildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples,columns,and decorative forms.The Romans,on the other hand,were more engineers than artists.They concentrated their efforts on urban planning,well-functioning water pipes,and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar.Both peoples ate very well indeed:lots of fish,fresh vegetables and fruits,healthy meals,holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines.In fact,it would probably be fair to say that they both loved lifein their warm,sea-oriented climates,and they both lived a full life.40.What is the first paragraph about?A.The Greek and the Roman were similar.B People misunderstood European civilization.C.Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilization.D.European civilization influenced American civilization greatly.41.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The Romans had more political awareness.B.The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.C.The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.D.The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.42.What were the Greeks famous for?A.The overall planning of a city or a town.B.The artistic decoration of the buildings.C.The practical functions of the buildings.D.The system of water supply and transportation.3.How are the two cultures alike?A.Both loved the sea.B.Both lived long lives.C.Both loved cooking.D Both enjoyed talking over meals.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or a thing to be credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a way of life in the United States. More and more Americans now are depending on those small pieces of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant diner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay for using it.Credit cards otter two major services to Americans.First of all, they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money. Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediatepleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between5and10percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?A.They consider it valuable.B.They regard it as a shame.C.They think it dangerous.D.They find it quite convenient.45.Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card number?A.To prevent the overuse of the car.B.To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C.To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.D.To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned46.What advantage can credit card holders have？A.They can choose not to pay for their purchasesB.They can easily borrow money at a lower interestC.They can own something before they actually pay for it.D.They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.47.What is the best tittle for the passage?A.Credit--a Way of Life in AmericaB.Credit Services in America.C.Convenience of Living in AmericaD.History of Credit Cards in AmericaPassage FourAt the1893Columbian Exposition,a World Fair held in Chicago, chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed.It caught the eye of M.S.Hershey,who saw the potential for chocolate.He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster,and produced his first chocolate bars in1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to make up new candy bars throughout the end of the1890's and the early 1900's.But it was World War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U.S.Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide20to40pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases.The blocks were cut into smaller pieces and distributed to American soldiers in Europe.Eventually the task of making smaller pieces wasturned back to the manufacturers.By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home,the American candy bar business was assured.Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same.As a result.from that time on and through the1920’s,candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States,and as many as 40,000different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston,and New York.The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar,corn syrup,and milk were easily available. Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48.Why did M.S.Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?A.He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B.He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popular.C.There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D.He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair.49.Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?A.The adding of new materialsB.The demand in the army during WWIC The purchase of new machinesD.The appearance of smaller candy bars50.What does the underlined word"seat"in the last paragraph most probably mean?A.FocusB.PositionC.ChairD.Center51.What is this passage mainly about?A.A World Fair held in Chicago in1893.B.The popularity of the American candy bar industry.C.The candy bar industry during World War I.D.The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors, creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike,such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,The Prince and The Pauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Twain passed away in 1910,leaving behind a treasure of great literature.But now,100 years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves:a three-volume autobiography.Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb:it was his wish that publishers wait until100years after his death to publish his memoirs(自传),which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than5,000pages,and likely won't be all sunshine and roses.It seems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends.He also writes negatively about politicians of his day,such as Teddy Roosevelt.It,s likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published,the autobiography has never been available in full,and should provide great insights into the man behind he classic books.The first volume of the set will be available in November,and the trilogy is being published by the University of California, Berkeley.There are so many biographies of Twain,and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography,editor Robert Hirst told The Independent."But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote.By publishing wain's book in full,we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sortof a man he was.”52.According to Paragraph1,which of the following statements is TRUE of Mark Twain？A.He left behind lots of money.B.His works were written for children.C.His works are full of adventures.D.He is famous for his great works.53.What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the passage?A.It has been published against Twain's will.B.It shows Twain's respect for politicians.C.It will be published in full.D.It has been recently finished.54.What does the underlined word"trilogy"in Paragraph4 mean?A.A work in three volumes.B An imaginative work.C.A collection of stories.D.Memoirs of famous people.55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?A.To supplement other biographies.B.To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C.To introduce Mark Twain's works.D.To expose new discoveries about Mark Twain.V.Daily Conversation(15points) Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue byblackening the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.A.When shall we set offB.What is the timeC.have a wonderful timeD.start packingE.be great funF.What could I getG.What should I takeH.where toMary:How do you like the idea of having a picnic this Saturday?

Sometimes,the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class.When you are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics,remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying.You are not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends—you are ina slightly unnatural situation where a large group of people will remain silent,waiting to hear what you have to say.You must speak up so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout of appearing to force yourself.Remember,too,that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you.The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease but the situation is

droughts(干旱)and floods.Unfortunately,in many parts of the world,man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important.In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees,he has cut them down in large numbers.Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships,with which to gain itself an empire.It gained the empire but,without its trees,its soil became bare and poor.When the empire fell to pieces,the country found itself faced by flood and starvation.Even though a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees,it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this.They cult down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees.So,unless the government has a good system of control,or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees.The results are even more serious:for where there are trees,their roots break the soil up,allowing the rain to sink in and also bind the soil.This prevents the soil from being washed away.But where there are no trees,the rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface,and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow.When all the topsoil is gone,nothing remains but worthless desert.16.Trees are useful to man mainly in three ways,the most important of which is thatthey can.A)make him draw quick profit from themB)keep him from the hot sunshineC)enable him to build warshipsD)protect him from droughts and floods17.It's great pity that.A)man hasn't found out that he has lost all tressB)man is eager to profit from treesC)man hasn't realized the importance of trees to himD)man is only interested in building empires18.Sooner or later the forests will disappear unless.A)all people are taught the importance of planting treesB)a country has a plenty supply of treesC)the government punishes those who cut trees instead of planting themD)people stop cutting down their trees19.The word"bind"in paragraph5means.A)to wash awayB)to improveC)to make stay togetherD)to make wet20.When there is a heavy rain,trees can help to prevent floods,as they can.A)prevent the soil from being washed awayB)cause the soil to allow rainwater to sink inC)make the topsoil stick togetherD)keep rain from falling down to soft groundSection

2018年河北省专接本英语考试真题
2018年河北省专接本英语考试真题2018 Hebei Province College English Test for Specialty TransferPart I Reading comprehension (30 points)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.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:We like to think that today's technological wonders are entirely our own creation. But a new study suggests that the human brain has been building networks of personal computers for over 50,000 years." Long before we had computers, long before we had a written language, we were using technology to store information outside our bodies, " says Chet Sherwood, a physical anthropologist at George Washington University.Sherwood made an analysis of the brain of a Neanderthal, an extinct species of them last shared a common ancestor with man some 300,000 to 400,000 years ago. We often associate the Neanderthals with a lack of mental power and language, but Sherwood's findings suggest that they were ahead of their time." You can't really use the Neanderthals as a punch line anymore," Sherwood says, "There is clear evidence that they were at least attempting literacy in some manner.In the view of course, they were technology geeks of their day. They built tools, mastered fire, and organized their out-of-body information network using tree bark and bone."Sherwood's team put a cast of the brain cavity of a150,000-year-old Neanderthal alongside one of a modern human. It found that Neanderthals had larger brains than humans. Sherwood believes their brain was built not only for complex thoughts, but was also structured to accommodate the laborious steps of literacy.Converting oral information into something written is a technology almost as complex as building a computer network.Neanderthals, it seems, were walking around with a lot more technology than we ever got them credit for - especially giventhat their tools were, in evolutionary time satellite, less than a blink of the eye away from today's computers.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Information technology.B. The history of literacy.C. The brain of a Neanderthal.D. The technology of the Neanderthals.2. The word "punch" (Line 9) could best be replaced byA. jab.B. exclamation.C. applause.D. humor.3. What does Sherwood suggest in the passage?A. Computers are a natural evolution of writing.B. Computing power is a recent human novelty.C. The Neanderthals likely had a written language.D. Neanderthals possessed modern-like computers.4. What does the passage say about the Neanderthals' brain size?A. It was smaller than that of early humans.B. It was unsuitable for literacy.C. It was not as large as that of modern humans.D. It was larger than that of modern humans.5. According to the passage, what can be said about Neanderthals?A. They were relatively unintelligent.B. They used tools.C. They were not technology geeks.D. They used oral information networks.根据以上文章完成以下问题1. 整个文章主要讨论什么？2.第9 行的“punch”一词最好用什么词来代替？3. 文章中谢尔伍德暗示了什么？4. 文章谈到了尼安德特人的大脑尺寸吗？5. 根据文章，关于尼安德特人，哪个说法是正确的？Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:You cannot see the beauty of Beijing in winter by taking only daytime tours. Beijing at night is simply stunning. A night stroll along the streets or a night view from a high hill offers visitors quite a different impression. Beijing night exists in two opposite forms: ancient and modern. If you walk through the narrow alleys of a fading old street in the Shichahai area or the Forbidden City at nightfall, you could easily get lost and feel like you have traveled back in time to Yuan, Ming or Qing Dynasties of China. Modern pavilions with colorfully painted windows provide quite a contrast to the surrounding dark grey bricks. The detour to the narrow Longfusi embedded in the hutongs (alley ways) in Dongcheng District can also help you get a better understanding of the history of old Beijing. Night scenes of the forbidden City, especially of light reflections in the shichahai Lakes and Beihai Park, are extremely charming. Pay special attention to the reflections of the old Chinese wooden architecture during your walks.Those who love excitement will feel the charm in the modern form of night life in Beijing. The impressive nightscape of Beijing is worth spending an evening to enjoy. The modern night life usually happens in the inner city areas where modern bars, discos, and amusement parks abound. When you walk around the central business district Wangfujing and Guomao, you will bedazzled by neon lights, glamours shops and abundant luxurious cars driving through – Beijing at night is Beijing at its most modern. The bird's eye view of night Beijing from the central television tower or the international Club will impress you so much that it seems to be too beautiful to be true.6. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The best time to visit Beijing.B. Traditional Chinese architecture.C. Beijing's night-time charm.D. Beijing's modern nightlife.7. The word "abound" (Line 14) is closest in meaning toA. disappear.B. lack.C. rest.D. be plentiful.8. Which of the following would NOT be a place to experience modern night life in Beijing?A. The international Club.B. Wangfujing.C. The Forbidden City.D. Guomao.9. According to the passage, what contrast is there in Beijing's night scene?A. Neatness versus disorder.B. Modernity versus tradition.C. Light versus darkness.D. Large versus small buildings.10. What is it about the old wooden architecture that the author wants tourists to pay attention to?A. Its age.B. Its paint.C. Its reflections.D. Its color.。

Choose the best and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1If you are going to be a straight talker, you have to believe that it’s a virtue, that it’s an quality you want to have.If you have an opinion and you just state it, it allows the other person to either try to challenge your opinion, to agree with you, or to disagree——they have an action they can take. If you are quiet, people think you agree. How can you then further the conversation when you are at different points and it’s not really exposed? Agreeing is easy. Disagreeing takes more guts.Several years back, when I was CEO at a company; there was a very senior woman who was very smart and well spoken, but she did not wear appropriate clothes. It was distracting and she was not being taken seriously. I said to her manager, who was male, “you need to tell her.” he said, “oh, no way.”So I called her in and directly stated what I thought was happening, “you’re not getting the respect you deserve,” I said, “go to the store and get a personal shopper. Just say, ‘I am a senior businessperson and need help dressing formally.’” She came back, and she was completely a different person. She said she felt really good. And currency went way up.Early in my business career, if people asked me a question, I’d try to answer it honestly. And it was rewarded. I had managers who wanted me around because I would actually tell them what was happening.I was raised by my grandma, and she was a pretty straight talker because she thought you would handle it. My advice is to be realistic. Being honest and truthful is part of being a good worker, a good associate, and a good leader.31.The woman did not get promoted because she did not .A.dress appropriatelyB. take her work seriouslyC. get on well with her colleaguesD. follow her manager’s instructions32.The underlined phrase “takes more guts” in Paragraph 2 refers to .A.demand more wisdomB. attract more attentionC. take more courageD. need more communication33.According to the writer, talking in a straight way allows one to .A.become an opinion leaderB. make friends easilyC. become a respectable personD. take further a ction34.From the last passage, it can be inferred that the writer tends to talk frankly possibly due to the influence of .A.his workmatesB. his leadersC. his friendsD. his family35.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Straight talkersB. Different opinionsC. Agree or disagreeD. Importance of speechPassage 2A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.The unpunctual man, on the contrary, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but the lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. The unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset （财产）as well as other's. The unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has to be attended to.Failure to be punctual in keeping one’s appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the host and all other guests present.Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to do one’s duty, whether public or private. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow m en.36.The main difference between a punctual person and an unpunctual person is that a punctual person .A.has lots of appointments while an unpunctual one has few appointmentsB.does everything at the right time while an unpunctual one seldom does soC.has much time to do everything while an unpunctual one has little time to do anythingD.does everything ahead of time while an unpunctual one does everything behind schedule37.What is the main reason why a person is always unpunctual according to the passage?A.He doesn’t care much about time.B.He is much busier than other people.C.He is always in a hurry when he w orks.D.He always mismanages and wastes his time.38.The third paragraph is developed by giving .A.a factB. an opinionC. an exampleD. an evidence39.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that .A.an unpunctual person usually loses his f riendsB.an unpunctual person often fails doing any important taskC.unpunctuality may result in fewer appointments and opportunitiesD.unpunctuality may lead to heavy losses for both public and private affairs40.What does the passage mainly talk a bout?A.Valuable timeB. Popular appointmentC. Harm of unpunctualityD. Advantage of p unctualityPassage 3Once upon a time, two brothers, Jack and Tom, who lived on neighboring farms, fell into conflict. For the past 20 years, they had been on good terms farming side by side, sharing machinery, and trading labor and goods as needed. The dispute began with a small misunderstanding and grew into a major difference, and finally exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.One morning there was a knock on Jack’s door. It was a carpenter looking for a few day s’ work. Jack offered him a job saying, “Look across the steam at that farm. That’s my neighbor, in fact, it’s my younger brother. There used to be a meadow between us. Last week he pulled down the dam on the small river and now there is a stream instead. Well, he may have done this to offend me, but I’ll do him one better.”“See that pile of lumber (木材) by the house? I want you to build me a fence—an 8-foot fence.” The carpenter said, “I think I understood the situation. Show me the nails and the post-hole digger (打桩机) and I’ll be able to do a job that please you.”Jack had to go into town, so he helped the carpenter get the material ready and then he was off for the day. The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring, sawing and nailing. About sunset when Jack returned, the carpenter had just finished his job.Jack’s eyes opened wide, his jaw dropped. There was no fence there at all. It was a bridge—a bridge stretching from one side of the stream to the other! A fine piece of work! His younger brother was coming toward them with hands outstretched. “Y ou are quite a fellow to build this bridge after all I’ve said and done.” The two brothers stood at each end of the bridge, and then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hand.They turned to see the carpenter lift his toolbox onto his shoulder. “No, wait! Stay a few days, I have a lot of other projects for you.” Said Jack, “I’d love to stay on.” The carpenter said, “ but I have many more bridges to build.”41.In the past 20 years, Jack and Tom kept their relationship .A.seriousB. tenseC. distantD. close42.Jack decided to build a fence to .A.protect himselfB. fight backC. please TomD. give in43.What does underlined expression “quite a fellow” mean in paragraph 5 ?A.A powerful manB. A rich manC. A generous manD. A capable man44.The carpenter built the bridge instead of a fence to help Jack and Tom .A.meet each otherB. store the lumberC. regain brotherly affectionD. renew their business45.What can we learn from the passage ?A.Better make friends than make enemies.B.A good friend brings a far land near.C.Family ties are close than social relations.D.A tooth for a tooth.Passage 4Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. The researchers at university of Missouri (MU) are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度) ,” said Jac kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope (放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical b atteries.”Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various systems. Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous.” he said. “however nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor. Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure（晶体结构）of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “by using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that p roblem.”Together with J.David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said their battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.46.The passage gets started by .A.an introductionB. an exampleC. a questionD. a conclusion47.What do you know about Jae Kwon？A.He is teaching chemistry at MU.B.He developed a chemical battery.C.He was good at computer e ngineering.D.He is working on a nuclear energy s ource.48.Which of the following is true according to paragraph 3 and 4？A.The writer introduces methods of providing power density.B.The writer intends to describe a nuclear-power system.C.The writer introduces nuclear batteries which/that can be safely used.D.The writer is likely to show chemical batteries are widely applied.49.Liquid semiconductor is used to .A.control the lattice structureB.show the power of nuclear b atteriesC.decrease the size of nuclear batteriesD.reduce the damage to lattice structure50.The passage is most probably f rom a .A.science news reportB. book reviewC. science fiction novelD. newspaper advertisementPart III Cloze (15%)Direction: There are 15 blanks in the following passage.

The Greeks were truly democratic,often without a single leader but instead governed by a group of men chosen by the people.The Romans were semi-democratic.They had a governing Senate,but the political power was mostly or completely in the hands of a single emperor.Both cultures were great builders.But the construction interests of the two cultures were also different.The Greeks tended to be more artistic.Their buildings were well constructed and they were especially interested in temples, columns,and decorative forms.The Romans,on the other hand, were more engineers than artists.They concentrated their efforts on urban planning,well-functioning water pipes,and the best roads.Only in cooking and eating habits are the two cultures really similar.Both peoples ate very well indeed:lots of fish, fresh vegetables and fruits,healthy meals,holding at the same time long discussions and tasting excellent wines. In fact,it would probably be fair to say that they both loved life in their warm,sea-oriented climates and they both liveda full life.40.What is the first paragraph about?A.The Greek and the Roman were similar.B.People misunderstood European civilization.C.Greek civilization was quite different from Roman civilization.D.European civilization influenced American civilization greatly.41.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The Romans had more political awareness.B.The Romans had less political freedom and democracy.C.The Romans had more freedom to choose their leader.D.The Romans had fewer people elected into the government.42.What were the Greeks famous for?A.The overall planning of a city or a town.B.The artistic decoration of the buildings.C.The practical functions of the buildings.aD.The system of water supply and transportation.43.How are the two cultures alike?A.Both loved the sea.B.Both lived long lives.C.Both loved cookingD.Both enjoyed talking over meals.Passage ThreeAs recently as three decades ago,many Americans believed that using credit was an unwise and dangerous way to pay for what they bought.Some even thought that owing money to a store or a credit company was something to be ashamed of.Good citizens,they believed,always bought what they wanted with real money and they paid the full price immediately.Today,however,all that has changed.Credit,as some observers have noted,has become a way of life in the United States.More and more Americans now are depending on those small pieces of plastic,credit cards,to pay for large purchases such as televisions,record players or furniture.Many people today would consider it unusual not to use a credit card to pay for a costly restaurant dinner,a hotel room or an airline trip.And there are some situations in which Americans must have credit cards.If they want the temporary use of a car,for example,they first must give the car rental company the number of their credit card.That number is considered a guarantee that they will return the car and pay Credit cards offer two major services to Americans.First of all,they are easier and safer to carry than large amounts of money.Second,they permit people to borrow,to have the immediate pleasure of owning something,even if they do not have enough money to pay for it at the time.With credit cards people pay for goods or services at the end of each month instead of when they buy them.And when the time does come to pay,most credit cards offer people a choice.They can pay all of what they owe for the month or they can just pay usually between5and10percent of what they owe.44.What do Americans feel about using credit cards nowadays according to the passage?A.They consider it valuable.B.They regard it as a shame.C.They think it dangerous.D.They find it quite convenient.45.Why does the car rental company ask for the credit card number?A.To prevent the overuse of the car.B.To make sure that the car won't be damaged.C.To make sure the user return the car and pay for using it.D.To ensure that the car is safely and timely returned.46.What advantage can credit card holders have?A.They can choose not to pay for their purchases.B.They can easily borrow money at a lower interest.C.They can own something before they actually pay for it.D.They can pay only a small amount of what they owe.47.What is the best title for the passage?A.Credit-a Way of Life in AmericaB.Credit Services in AmericaC.Convenience of Living in AmericaD.History of Credit Cards in AmericaPassage FourAt the1893Columbian Exposition,a World Fair held in Chicago,chocolate-making machinery made in Germany was displayed.It caught the eye of M.S.Hershey,who saw the potential for chocolate.He installed chocolate machinery in his factory in Lancaster,and produced his first chocolate bars in1894.Other Americans began mixing in other materials to makeup new candy bars throughout the end of the1890's and the early 1900's.But it was World War I that really brought attention to the candy bar.The U.S.Army Quartermaster Corps requested various American chocolate manufacturers to provide20to40pound blocks of chocolate to be shipped to quartermaster bases.The blocks were cut into smaller distributed to American soldiers in Europe.Eventually the task of making smaller pieces was turned back to the manufacturers.By the end of the war when the soldiers arrived home,the American candy bar business was assured.Why?Because the returning soldiers had grown fond of chocolate candy and wanted more of the same.As a result from that time on and through the1920's,candy bar manufacturers became established throughout the United States,and as many as40,000different candy bars appeared on the scene.The original candy bar industry had its start on the eastern coast in such cities as Philadelphia,Boston,and New York.The industry soon spread to the Midwest because shipping and raw materials such as sugar,corn syrup,and milk were easily available.Chicago became the seat of the candy bar industry and is even today an important base.48.Why did M.S.Hershey start the production of chocolate bars?A.He was deeply impressed by the Columbian Exposition.B.He realized that it was possible for chocolate to become popularC.There was nothing to produce in his factory in Lancaster.D.He was interested in the chocolate machinery displayed at the fair49.Which event brought the booming of American candy bar business?A.The adding of new materials.B.The demand in the army during WWI.C.The purchase of new machinesD.The appearance of smaller candy bars.50.What does the underlined word"seat"in the last paragraph most probably mean?A.Focus.B.Position.C.Chair.D.Center51.What is this passage mainly about?A.World Fair held in Chicago in1893.B.The popularity of the American candy bar industry.oC.The candy bar industry during World War.D.The spread of the candy bar business to the Midwest.Passage FiveMark Twain is one of America's much-beloved authors, creating imaginative and humorous classics for children and adults alike,such as The Adventures of Tom Sawyer,The Prince and The Pauper,and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Twain passed away in1910,leaving behind a treasure of great literature.But now,100years after his death,he'll have a brand-new book on the shelves:a three-volume autobiography. Twain hasn't been keeping busy in his tomb it was his wish that publishers wait until100years after his death to publish his memoirs)which he spent the last decade of his life working on.The autobiography totals more than5,000pages,and likely won't be all sunshine and roses.It seems that Twain harbored some bitterness against former girlfriends and ex-friends.He also writes negatively about politicians of his day,such as Teddy Roosevelt.It's likely that he requested such a long lead time for the memoirs because he didn't want to hurt the feelings of anyone mentioned in this work.Although small sections of the memoirs have been previously published the autobiography has never been available in full, and should provide great insights into the man behind the classic books.The first volume of the set will be available in November,and the trilogy is being published by the University of California,Berkeley."There are so many biographies of Twain,and many of them have used bits and pieces of the autobiography",editor Robert Hirst told The Independent."But biographers pick and choose what bits to quote.By publishing Twain's book in full we hope that people will be able to come to their own complete conclusions about what sort of a man he was."52.According to Paragraph1,which of the statements is TRUE of Mark Twain?A.He left behind lots of money.B.His works were written for children.C.His works are full of adventures.D.He is famous for his great works.53.What can we learn about Mark Twain's autobiography from the passage?A.It has been published against Twain's will.B.It shows Twain's respect for politicians.C.It will be published in full.D.It has been recently finished.54.What does the underlined word"trilogy"in Paragraph4mean?A.work in three volumes.B.An imaginative work.C.collection of stories.D.Memoirs of famous people.55.What is the purpose of publishing Twain's autobiography?A.To supplement other biographies.B.To help readers to understand Mark Twain.C.To introduce Mark Twain's works.D.To expose new discoveries about Mark TwainV.Daily Conversation(15points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.When shall we set offB.What is the timeC.have a wonderful timeD.start packingE.be great funF.What could I getG.What should I takeH.where toMary:How do you like the idea of having a picnic this Saturday?

Choose the best and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1If you are going to be a straight talker, you have to believe that it’s a virtue, that it’s an quality you want to have.If you have an opinion and you just state it, it allows the other person to either try to challenge your opinion, to agree with you, or to disagree——they have an action they can take. If you are quiet, people think you agree. How can you then further the conversation when you are at different points and it’s not really exposed? Agreeing is easy. Disagreeing takes more guts.Several years back, when I was CEO at a company; there was a very senior woman who was very smart and well spoken, but she did not wear appropriate clothes. It was distracting and she was not being taken seriously. I said to her manager, who was male, “you need to tell her.” he said, “oh, no way.”So I called her in and directly stated what I thought was happening, “you’re not getting the respect you deserve,” I said, “go to the store and get a personal shopper. Just say, ‘I am a senior businessperson and need help dressing formally.’” She came back, and she was completely a different person. She said she felt really good. And currency went way up.Early in my business career, if people asked me a question, I’d try to answer it honestly. And it was rewarded. I had managers who wanted me around because I would actually tell them what was happening.I was raised by my grandma, and she was a pretty straight talker because she thought you would handle it. My advice is to be realistic. Being honest and truthful is part of being a good worker, a good associate, and a good leader.31.The woman did not get promoted because she did not .A.dress appropriatelyB. take her work seriouslyC. get on well with her colleaguesD. follow her manager’s instructions32.The underlined phrase “takes more guts” in Paragraph 2 refers to .A.demand more wisdomB. attract more attentionC. take more courageD. need more communication33.According to the writer, talking in a straight way allows one to .A.become an opinion leaderB. make friends easilyC. become a respectable personD. take further a ction34.From the last passage, it can be inferred that the writer tends to talk frankly possibly due to the influence of .A.his workmatesB. his leadersC. his friendsD. his family35.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Straight talkersB. Different opinionsC. Agree or disagreeD. Importance of speechPassage 2A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.The unpunctual man, on the contrary, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but the lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. The unpunctual man is forever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset （财产）as well as other's. The unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has to be attended to.Failure to be punctual in keeping one’s appointments is the sign of disrespect towards others. If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as a great disrespect to the host and all other guests present.Unpunctuality, moreover, is very harmful when it comes to do one’s duty, whether public or private. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be their proper place at the appointed time. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by his friends or fellow m en.36.The main difference between a punctual person and an unpunctual person is that a punctual person .A.has lots of appointments while an unpunctual one has few appointmentsB.does everything at the right time while an unpunctual one seldom does soC.has much time to do everything while an unpunctual one has little time to do anythingD.does everything ahead of time while an unpunctual one does everything behind schedule37.What is the main reason why a person is always unpunctual according to the passage?A.He doesn’t care much about time.B.He is much busier than other people.C.He is always in a hurry when he w orks.D.He always mismanages and wastes his time.38.The third paragraph is developed by giving .A.a factB. an opinionC. an exampleD. an evidence39.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that .A.an unpunctual person usually loses his f riendsB.an unpunctual person often fails doing any important taskC.unpunctuality may result in fewer appointments and opportunitiesD.unpunctuality may lead to heavy losses for both public and private affairs40.What does the passage mainly talk a bout?A.Valuable timeB. Popular appointmentC. Harm of unpunctualityD. Advantage of p unctualityPassage 3Once upon a time, two brothers, Jack and Tom, who lived on neighboring farms, fell into conflict. For the past 20 years, they had been on good terms farming side by side, sharing machinery, and trading labor and goods as needed. The dispute began with a small misunderstanding and grew into a major difference, and finally exploded into an exchange of bitter words followed by weeks of silence.One morning there was a knock on Jack’s door. It was a carpenter looking for a few day s’ work. Jack offered him a job saying, “Look across the steam at that farm. That’s my neighbor, in fact, it’s my younger brother. There used to be a meadow between us. Last week he pulled down the dam on the small river and now there is a stream instead. Well, he may have done this to offend me, but I’ll do him one better.”“See that pile of lumber (木材) by the house? I want you to build me a fence—an 8-foot fence.” The carpenter said, “I think I understood the situation. Show me the nails and the post-hole digger (打桩机) and I’ll be able to do a job that please you.”Jack had to go into town, so he helped the carpenter get the material ready and then he was off for the day. The carpenter worked hard all that day measuring, sawing and nailing. About sunset when Jack returned, the carpenter had just finished his job.Jack’s eyes opened wide, his jaw dropped. There was no fence there at all. It was a bridge—a bridge stretching from one side of the stream to the other! A fine piece of work! His younger brother was coming toward them with hands outstretched. “Y ou are quite a fellow to build this bridge after all I’ve said and done.” The two brothers stood at each end of the bridge, and then they met in the middle, taking each other’s hand.They turned to see the carpenter lift his toolbox onto his shoulder. “No, wait! Stay a few days, I have a lot of other projects for you.” Said Jack, “I’d love to stay on.” The carpenter said, “ but I have many more bridges to build.”41.In the past 20 years, Jack and Tom kept their relationship .A.seriousB. tenseC. distantD. close42.Jack decided to build a fence to .A.protect himselfB. fight backC. please TomD. give in43.What does underlined expression “quite a fellow” mean in paragraph 5 ?A.A powerful manB. A rich manC. A generous manD. A capable man44.The carpenter built the bridge instead of a fence to help Jack and Tom .A.meet each otherB. store the lumberC. regain brotherly affectionD. renew their business45.What can we learn from the passage ?A.Better make friends than make enemies.B.A good friend brings a far land near.C.Family ties are close than social relations.D.A tooth for a tooth.Passage 4Batteries can power anything from small sensors to large systems. While scientists are finding ways to make them smaller but even more powerful, problems can arise when these batteries are much larger and heavier than the devices themselves. The researchers at university of Missouri (MU) are developing a nuclear energy source that is smaller, lighter and more efficient.“To provide enough power, we need certain methods with high energy density (密度) ,” said Jac kwon, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering at MU. “The radioisotope (放射性同位素) battery can provide power density that is much higher than chemical b atteries.”Kwon and his research team have been working on building a small nuclear battery, presently the size and thickness of a penny, intended to power various systems. Although nuclear batteries can cause concerns, Kwon said they are safe.“People hear the word ‘nuclear’ and think of something very dangerous.” he said. “however nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pace-makers, space satellites and underwater systems.”His new idea is not only in the battery’s size, but also in its semiconductor. Kwon’s battery uses a liquid semiconductor rather than a solid semiconductor.“The key part of using a radioactive battery is that when you harvest the energy, part of the radiation energy can damage the lattice structure（晶体结构）of the solid semiconductor,” Kwon said, “by using a liquid semiconductor, we believe we can minimize that p roblem.”Together with J.David Robertson, chemistry professor and associate director of the MU Research Reactor, Kwon is working to build and test the battery. In the future, they hope to increase the battery’s power, shrink its size and try with various other materials. Kwon said their battery could be thinner than the thickness of human hair.46.The passage gets started by .A.an introductionB. an exampleC. a questionD. a conclusion47.What do you know about Jae Kwon？A.He is teaching chemistry at MU.B.He developed a chemical battery.C.He was good at computer e ngineering.D.He is working on a nuclear energy s ource.48.Which of the following is true according to paragraph 3 and 4？A.The writer introduces methods of providing power density.B.The writer intends to describe a nuclear-power system.C.The writer introduces nuclear batteries which/that can be safely used.D.The writer is likely to show chemical batteries are widely applied.49.Liquid semiconductor is used to .A.control the lattice structureB.show the power of nuclear b atteriesC.decrease the size of nuclear batteriesD.reduce the damage to lattice structure50.The passage is most probably f rom a .A.science news reportB. book reviewC. science fiction novelD. newspaper advertisementPart III Cloze (15%)Direction: There are 15 blanks in the following passage. For each blank, there are four choices. Choose the one best answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Bill Fuller, a mailman, whistled cheerfully as he 51 up the hill towards Mrs. Carter’s house. His work for the day was almost 52 , and his bag, usually quite heavy when he started out on his rounds, was 53 now except for the letter that he had to deliver to Mrs. Carter. She lived quite a few blocks away, so when Bill had mails for her, he usually finished his day’s work much 54 . He was happy that Mrs. Carter often 55 him coffee and a piece of her special cake.When Bill got to Mrs. Carter’s house, he was 56 that she did not work in the yard.

Puzzled, he returned to the front of the house and knocked loudly on the front door. There was no 59 . Bill thought that it was very strange because he knew that Mrs. Carter 60 left the house. Just then he noticed that her bottle of milk, which is always delivered early in the morning, was still on the porch. This 61 him. If Mrs. Carter had not taken her milk, maybe she was 62 .

hear what you have to say.You must speak up so that they can hear you—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout of appearing to force yourself.Remember,too,that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your school or a government official who might meet you.The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease but the situation is

him shade;and they help to prevent droughts(干旱)and floods.Unfortunately,in many parts of the world,man has not realized that the third of these services is the most important.In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees,he has cut them down in large numbers.Two thousand years ago a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships,with which to gain itself an empire.It gained the empire but,without its trees,its soil became bare and poor.When the empire fell to pieces,the country found itself faced by flood and starvation.Even though a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees,it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this.They cult down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees.So,unless the government has a good system of control,or can educate the people, the forests slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees.The results are even more serious:for where there are trees,their roots break the soil up,allowing the rain to sink in and also bind the soil.This prevents the soil from being washed away.But where there are no trees,the rain falls on hard ground and flows away on the surface,and this causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow.When all the topsoil is gone,nothing remains but worthless desert.16.Trees are useful to man mainly in
