Cigarette smoke in her house?How?How?Had someone got in?She checked the back door and the windows.All were locked or fastened,as usual.There was no sign of forced entry.Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone had a key that fitted her front door―a master key perhaps.So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened.Was anyone watching her movements?On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time,dres sed as usual,but she didn’t go to the club. Instead she took a short cut home again,letting herself in through her garden and the back door.She settled down to wait.It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang.Mrs.Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time.The bell rang again,and then she heard her letter-box being pushed open.With the kettle of boiling water in her hand,she moved quietly toward the front door.A long piece of wire appeared through the letter box,and then a hand.The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door-lock.Mrs.Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand.There was a shout outside,and the skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove.The wire fell to thefloor,the hand was pulled back,and Mrs.Clarke heard the sound of running feet.31.On Thursday,Mrs Clarke usually_____.A.went on an outingB.visited a clubC.worked at a clubD.went to see a friend32.No one made a forced entry,because_____.A.she smelt cigarette smokeB.she found nobody in the houseC.she came into the house as usual and locked the door广东专插本英语D.she found the door and windows remained the same33.On the second Thursday,nothing happened and Mrs.Clarke was wondering_____.A.whether her guess was wrongB.whether someone had a master keyC.whether her movements were being watchedD.whether someone took a short cut to the house34.The wire fell to the floor_____.A.because it was too hot to holdB.when t he man’s glove dropped offC.because the man just wanted to run awayD.when the man’s hand was badly hurt by hot water35.It can be inferred from the passage that Mrs.Clarke was_____.A.calm and cleverB.brave and luckyC.anxious and worriedD.scared and frightenedPassage2We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching.On the contrary,both their knowledge and experience are enriched.We feel that there are many disadvantages in dividing pupils into different groups.It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates.It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child.After all,it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides,it is rather unusual to grade pupils just according to their intellectual ability.This is only one aspect of their total personality.We are concerned to develop the abilities of all ourpupils to the full,not just their academic ability.We also value personal qualities and social skills,and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms,we work in various ways.The pupils often work in groups:this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate,to share,and to develop leadership skills.They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as how to think,to make decisions,to analyze and evaluate,and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs;sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments,and they can do this at their own speed.They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate.We encourage our pupils to use the library,and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this effectively.An advanced pupil can do advanced work.It doesn’t matter how old the child is.We expect our pupils to do their best,not their least,and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.36.The phrase held back in Line1means being_____.A.forced to study hardB.stopped from making progressC.unwilling to study hardD.pushed to make great progress37.The writer’s attitude towards mixed-ability teaching is_____.A.approvingB.negative广东专插本英语C.criticalD.indifferent38.According to the writer,the main concern of a teacher should be the development of the students’_____.A.social skillsB.total personalityC.personal qualitiesD.intellectual ability39.Which of the following is NOT __ED in the third paragraphA.Pupils can learn how to be capable organizers.B.Pupils can learn how to work together with others.C.Pupils can learn how to be participate in teaching activities.D.Pupils can learn how to develop their reasoning abilities.40.This passage aims to_____.A.offer advice on the effective use of the libraryB.emphasize the importance of teaching the skillsC.discuss pair work and group work for classroom activitiesD.argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classPassage3In the1960s,medical researchers Thomas Holmes and Richard Rahe developed a checklist of stressful events.They appreciated the tricky point that any major change can be stressful.Negative events like serious illness of a family member were high on the list,but so were some positive life-changing events,like marriage.When you take the Holmes-Rahe test you must remember that the score does not reflect how you deal with stress―it only shows how much you have to deal with.And we now know that the way you handle these events dramatically affects your chances of staying healthy.By the early1970s,hundreds of similar studies had followed Holmes and Rahe. And millions of Americans who work and live under stress worried over the reports. Somehow,the research was described briefly in a memorable message.Women’s magazines ran headlines like Stress causes illness!If you want to stayphysically and mentally healthy,the articles said,avoid stressful events.But such simple advice is impossible to follow.Even if stressful events are dangerous,many―like the death of a loved one―are impossible to avoid.Moreover, any warning to avoid all stressful events is a prescription()for staying away from opportunities as well as trouble.Since any change can be stressful,a person who wanted to be completely free of stress would never marry,have a child,take a new job or move.The notion that all stress makes you sick also ignores a lot of what we know about people.It assumes we’re all weak and passive in the face of difficulties.But what about human initiative and creativity?Many people come through periods of stress with more physical and mental energy than they had before.We also know that a long time without change or challenge can lead to boredom,and physical and mental strain.41.Holmes-Rahe made a medical research on_____.A.what to do to avoid stress广东专插本英语B.what to do to cope with stressC.what kind of events can cause stressD.what kind of stress can cause changes42.The score of the Holmes-Rahe test shows_____.A.how much you have to deal with stressB.how positive events can change your lifeC.how negative events can change your lifeD.how you can deal with life-changing events43.The studies on stress in the early1970s made people_____.A.feel more stressful in working and livingB.believe that it’s impossible to avoid stressC.worry about their mental and physical healthD.believe that it’s possible to avoid stressful events44.If a person wanted to avoid stress completely,he would have to_____.A.avoid any changesB.make some changesC.be free of dangerous thingsD.stay away from the opportunities45.Which of the following best describes the writer’s tone in the passageA.Critical.B.Objective.C.Subjective.D.Prejudiced.Passage4Even plants can run a fever,especially when they're under attack by insects or disease.But unlike humans,plants can have their temperature taken from3,000feet away-straight up.A decade ago,adapting the infrared()scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites,physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under attack.The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide()spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field,which always includes plants that don't have pes()problems.Even better,Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye.An infrared scanner,on a plane flying at3,000feet at night,measured the heat sent out by crops.The data was turned into a color-coded map showing where plants were running“fevers".Farmers could then spot-spray,using50to70percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in1984,after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term supports were hard to find.But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce,and refinements in infrared scanning,Paley hopes to get back into operation.Agriculture experts have no doubt about how the technology works."This technique can be used on75 percent of agricultural land in the United States,"says George Oerther of Texas AM. Ray Jackson,who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture,thinks long-distance infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade,but only if Paley finds the financial support which he failed to obtain10years ago.广东专插本英语46.Plants will run a fever when they are_____.A.sprayed with pesticidesB.facing an infrared scannerC.troubled with insects or diseaseD.having their temperature taken47.In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely,we can use infrared scanning to_____.A.draw a color-coded mapB.locate the problem areaC.attract insects and treat diseaseD.estimate the damage to the crops48.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by_____.A.making use of spot-sprayingB.transforming poisoned rainC.consulting infrared scanning expertsD.detecting crop problems at an early stage49.The difficulty in applying infrared scanning technology to agriculture is_____.A.its high costB.the financial problemC.the decreased productionD.the lack of official support50.The passage mainly talks about the_____.A.problems of cropsB.temperature of plantsC.roles of Paley’s companyD.function of infrared scanningPart Cloze15%A friend of mine met with an accident driving in the darkness.His legs were so hurt that he couldn't move.What was the___51__was that he found himself una ble to ask for help―his mobile phone went out of___52__because of the exhausted battery.___53__could be done but to wait in the cold wilderness.It was eight hours later that day broke,and then the rescue arrived.It can___54__that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long.Even more surprising was his___55__,"First of all,I checked up my physical conditions and found myself not in mortal danger.As there was no tools to___56__help,I leaned back in my seat trying my best to___57__the wound from bleeding.In this way I dozed off."His story put an end to my regret for the sadness of an exploration adventure that happened last year.A group of young men___58__to explore a mountain cave and got lost.___59__to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of___60__.Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion.

This innovative program offers an alternative route to obtaining a bachelor's degree, bridging the gap between associate degrees and traditional four-year undergraduate programs. However, this path is not without its challenges and opportunities.One of the primary challenges facing students pursuing the Cha Ben route is the rigorous academic requirements. The program demands a high level of academic performance and commitment, as students must complete both undergraduate and associate degree courses in a compressed timeframe. This can be a daunting task, particularly for those who may lack the necessary academic preparation or time management skills.Moreover, the competitive nature of the Cha Ben programs adds another layer of complexity. With limited spots available, students must compete with peers who are often academically strong and well-prepared. The selection process can be highly competitive, and only the most qualified candidates are admitted into the program.Despite these challenges, the Guangdong Intercalated Bachelor's Degree Program presents numerous opportunities for personal and academic growth. For instance, it offers students the flexibility to pursue their passions and interests while simultaneously earning a degree. This flexibility allows students to customize their educational journey, exploring different fields and disciplines that may not be available through traditional undergraduate programs.Additionally, the Cha Ben program fosters a sense of community and camaraderie among students. As they navigate the rigorous academic requirements together, students form strong bonds and support systems that can be invaluable in their academic and personal development.Moreover, the program prepares students for the demands of the job market.

Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters （毛衣）.Pretty soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters. There is nothing wrong with that, except thefact that for some people bright red is rather unsuitable. The situation can even become dangerous,if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then thepeople who follow the example are putting their lives in danger. They are like sheep being led tothe slaughter （屠宰）.Now, it is likely that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life.In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong.You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, butdon’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No.” Develop your own standards and your own judgments. Ifyou know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove, have the courage to bow out gracefully. You’ll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet.36.The main idea of this passage is that ______.A.in every school there is a “top” crowd that sets paceB.it is a mistake to follow the “top” crowd blindlyC.at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrongD.people who follow the “top” crowd are putting their lives in danger37.The author disapproves of wearing red sweaters if ______.A.the crowd is wearing themB.one can’t afford themC.one doesn’t look good in redD.it is against school rules38.People who follow the “top” crowd blindly ______.A.are rebels （叛逆者）without a causeB.have no respect for their parentsC.are good-for-nothingsD.sometimes dothings against their better judgment39.The underlined phrase “to bow out” may probably mean ______.A.not to take partB.to make an excuseC.to feel sorryD.to beashamed40.The author urges the reader to ______.A.follow the crowdB.take the advice from the “top” crowdC.be independentD.do whatever he wantsPassage 2The fact that everybody enjoys a good mystery explains why magicians are such popular entertainers. We all know that a magician does not really depend on “magic” to perform his tricks,but on his ability to act at great speed. However, this does not prevent us from enjoying watchinga magician produce rabbits from a hat, swallow countless eggs, or saw（锯）his wife in two.Probably the greatest magician of all time was Harry Houdini who died in 1926. His realname was Enrich Weiss, but he adopted the name “Houdini” after reading a book which influenced him greatly. This had been written by a famous magician called Robert Houdini.Houdini mastered the art of escaping. He could free himself from the tightest knots （最牢固的结）or the most difficult locks in seconds. Although no one really knows how he did this, there is nodoubt that he had made a close study of every type of lock ever invented. He would carry a small steel needle-like tool fastened to his leg and he used this instead of a key.Houdini once asked the Chicago police to lock him in prison. They bound him in chains and locked him up, but he freed himself in an instant. The police accused him of having used a tool and locked him up again. This time he wore no clothes and there were chains round his neck, waist, wrists（手腕）,and legs; but he again escaped in a few minutes. Houdini had probably hidden his “needle” in a wax-like substance and dropped it on the floor in the passage（过道）.As he went past, he stepped on it so that it so that it stuck to （粘在）the bottom of his foot. His most famous escape, however, was altogether astonishing. He was heavily chained up and shut in an empty wooden box the lid of which was nailed down. The box was dropped into the sea in New York harbor. In one minute Houdini had swum to the surface. When the box was brought up, it was opened and the chains were found inside.41. Magicians’ successful tricks mostly depend on the fact that they can ______.A.create any animals mysteriouslyB.eat a lot of eggsC.cut their wives in twoD.perform tricks quickly42. Enrich Weiss used the name Harry Houdini because ______.A. his father had this as his family nameB. he respected another magician Robert Houdini very muchC. he got the name because of his successD. he learned his art from Robert Houdini and was named after him43. Harry Houdini’s best art was perhaps that ______.A. he could use a steel needle-like tool instead of a keyB. he could invent all kinds of knots and locks in a minuteC. he could free himself quickly while bound or locked upD. he made a close study of all types of lock44. Harry Houdini was once locked in prison, being bound in chains, as ______.A. he was accused of crimes and was arrested by police in ChicagoB. he wanted to show to the police how skillful he was at escapingC. the police wanted to know whether their prison was secureD. the police wanted to see whether he could escape with nothing on45. The best title of this passage might be ______.A. Harry Houdini, the Great MagicianB. The History of MagiciansC. Why People Like Magicians So MuchD. How Magicians WorkPassage 3I lose so many things that I was sure they just get up and walk. Perhaps I have never admitted it—even to myself, but I am extremely jealous of people who are so orderly that they never lose anything. Most of my friends always seem to have a place for everything and everything is in its place. I hate comparing myself with them. They have special cupboards for tools, hooks to hang things on and drawers to put things in . It is quite impossible for me to compete.Some things have a terrible habit of disappearing the moment I need them. Pencils and ballpoint pens are never anywhere near the telephone when it rings, no matter how much care Itake. Screw-drivers and tin-openers always manage to walk into the garden and, as a result, screws remain loose, and tins remain unopened. Boxes of matches move under the radio, and needles disappear every time I want to sew a button on a shirt.The situation was getting so much out of control that I decided to organize myself. I had a large cupboard put into the kitchen. On the shelves I neatly arranged a number of boxes and tins, the contents of which I clearly printed in ink on the outside. I had one box for pins, another for nails, and a special place for screw-drivers. There was a new address book in one corner so that I could make a note of telephone numbers and addresses. Before this I had always written addresses on bits of paper——which I quickly lost. Soon everything was tidily arranged in its place, from pairs of scissors to cakes of soap and spare lamps. Having made such a sincere attempt to prevent things from running away, I felt very proud of myself. But it was not long before the matches disappeared and the hammer decided to hide itself in the waste-paper basket. I soon got my revenge, however. I had a lock fitted to the cupboard and thus made sure that nothing could escape. This was an admirable solution——until I lost the key to the cupboard.46. This passage is something written to ______.A. tell readers a jokeB. complain about his toolsC. teach readers some tricksD. criticize himself humorously47. The author loses so many things because ______.A. the things can really get up and walkB. other people never lose anythingC. he doesn’t have special cupboards for toolsD. he can not organize himself well48. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The author’s things will escape when they are needed.B. When the author needs to take notes, he can’t find his pencils.C. You can often find screw-drivers and tin-openers in the kitchen.D. Boxes of matches often stay where they should not be.49. After the author decided to improve the situation, he did everything below except that ______.A. he had different boxes for different toolsB. he put some boxes and tins on the shelvesC. he wrote telephone numbers and addresses on paper piecesD. he had a large cupboard put in the kitchen50. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Ever since his new arrangement, everything was brought under control.B. The offorts he made turned out to be a failure.C. He had a lock fitted to the cupboard, which proved to be an effective measure.D. He was very proud of himself for his clever measure.Passage 4While the history of technology can be traced along many lines, one of the most intriguing （引人入胜的）development is that photo technology, the technology of light. From the prehistoric invention of fire to laser beams （激光束）and fiber optics （光纤）, light has “continually occupied the minds of inventors.” Their inventions fall into two groups: the use of light to aid vision and, more interestingly, the use of light for purposes of communication.The use of light for communication is one of the major directions that technology has taken ever since the middle of the nineteenth century. From still （静态的）photography to movies to television (with a development from black-and-white to color imagery in each), photo technology has had a great effect upon mass communication and mass education. Unlike the printed word, visual images have more impact because they are more immediate: They copy reality in a way that the printed word cannot. Unlike letter shapes, they are not abstract; unlike words, they require no symbolic interpretation by the mind. Combined with the widespread and uniform spreading of such images, phototechnology affects the thinking of vast audiences and shapes their view of reality.As the number of commercially available television channels grows, the viewe r’s freedom of choice increases, but so does the burden of that choice.51. It can be learned about the technology of light from the first paragraph that ________.A. its mere practical use is to enable people to see wellB. it achieved a remarkable development in the early nineteenth centuryC. its development is related to the study of the history of technologyD. is has aroused the interest of inventors ever since ancient times52. According to the passage, visual images differ from the printed words in that ________.A. they have much deeper meaningsB. they have a greater immediate influence upon the viewerC. they fail to produce a beneficial effect upon youngstersD. they enable the viewer to use his imagination fully53. It can be learned from the passage that with the development of phototechnology, ________.A. more and more people seem to prefer TV programs to reading activitiesB. the number of TV viewers has become greater than that of film goersC. more and more television channels are openedD. it takes less time for a new idea to be absorbed54. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. The use of light for communication is one of technologists’ concerns.B. The printed words and visual pictures copy reality in much the same way.C. TV viewers have no trouble making a wise choice.D. Phototechnology hasn’t changed people’s view of reality.55. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss ________.A. the ease and fast speed of mass communicationB. the response of the viewer to too much informationC. the difference between right and wrong in the history of technologyD. the influence of phototechnology on mass communicationPart III Cloze (10%)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters （毛衣）.Pretty soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters. There is nothing wrong with that, except thefact that for some people bright red is rather unsuitable. The situation can even become dangerous,if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then thepeople who follow the example are putting their lives in danger. They are like sheep being led tothe slaughter （屠宰）.Now, it is likely that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life.In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong.You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, butdon’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No.” Develop your own standards and your own judgments. Ifyou know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove, have the courage to bow out gracefully.

However, this does not prevent us from enjoying watchinga magician produce rabbits from a hat, swallow countless eggs, or saw（锯）his wife in two.Probably the greatest magician of all time was Harry Houdini who died in 1926.

Unlike letter shapes, they are not abstract; unlike words, they require no symbolic interpretation by the mind. Combined with the widespread and uniform spreading of such images, phototechnology affects the thinking of vast audiences and shapes their view of reality.As the number of commercially available television channels grows, the viewe r’s freedom of choice increases, but so does the burden of that choice.51. It can be learned about the technology of light from the first paragraph that ________.A. its mere practical use is to enable people to see wellB. it achieved a remarkable development in the early nineteenth centuryC. its development is related to the study of the history of technologyD. is has aroused the interest of inventors ever since ancient times52. According to the passage, visual images differ from the printed words in that ________.A. they have much deeper meaningsB. they have a greater immediate influence upon the viewerC. they fail to produce a beneficial effect upon youngstersD. they enable the viewer to use his imagination fully53. It can be learned from the passage that with the development of phototechnology, ________.A. more and more people seem to prefer TV programs to reading activitiesB. the number of TV viewers has become greater than that of film goersC. more and more television channels are openedD. it takes less time for a new idea to be absorbed54. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. The use of light for communication is one of technologists’ concerns.B. The printed words and visual pictures copy reality in much the same way.C. TV viewers have no trouble making a wise choice.D. Phototechnology hasn’t changed people’s view of reality.55.

专升本插班生入学考试公共课公共英语历年试题集(含标准答案)1998年广东省普通高等学校本科插班生考试英语试题Part I Reading Comprehension(40%)Passage IThe computer is a wonderful machine.It is the most important invention since the type of engine used in cars.Today it has the greatest effect on science,industry,and business,but it is being used more in education and medicine.By the end of this century it will touch the lives of everyone,even people in distant villages.It is a revolutionary invention.The oldest kind of computer is the abacus used in China since the sixth century.In the seventeenth century an adding machine was invented,but the furst large,modern computer was built in 1937.A few years later a computer could do 5000 additions per second.Now the computations are so fast that they are measured in nanoseconds(毫微秒).Today most computers have a memory.They are getting smaller and smaller,and computing faster and faster.Even in a large computer,the part that does the actual computing is about the size of the end of a finger. Computers can do all kinds of work.When someone buys something in a department store,information about the sale goes into a computer,A scientist can talk to the computer about the rocks,and the computer answers the questions.A doctor can talk to the computer and explain what is wrong with a patient.If the doctor asks why,the computer goes through its stored information and explains exactly why.When early humans began farming,it was a revolutionary change in human life.It was hundreds of thousands of years later that people developed a writing system(方法).In less than fifty years people have developed computers that can do most of the things humans can do .This could be a frightening development.1.The computer is considered a wonderful machine because_____.A.it has effect on all aspects of man’s lifeB.it is widely used in education and medicineC.it has the function of an engineD.it is useful even in distant villages2.The abacus has been used in China for_____.A.some 5,000

countriesC.people all over the worldD.people in the Western world1Passage 2In the traditional marriage,the man worked at a job to earn money for the family.Most men worked in an office,a factory,or some other place away from the home.Since the man earned the money,he paid the bills.The money was used for food,clothes,a house,and other family needs.The man made most of the decisions.He was the boss.In the traditional marriage,the woman seldom worked away from the house.She stayed at home to care for the children and her husband.She cooked the meals,cleaned house,washed the clothes,and did other household work.Her job at home was every important.In recent years,many couples continue to have a traditional relationship of this kind.The man has a job and earns the money for the family.The woman stays at home and cares for the children and the house.Many Americans are happy with this kind of marriage.But some other Americans have a different impression of marriage and family responsibilities.There are two important differences in male and female roles now.One is that both men and women have many more choices.They may choose to marry or to stay single.They may choose to work or stay at home.Both men and women may choose roles that are comfortable for them.A second difference in male and female roles is that within marriage many decisions and responsibilities are shared.The husband and wife may choose to have children,or they may not.If they have children,the man may take care of them some of the time, all of the time,or not at all.The woman may want to stay at home and take care of the children.Or she may want to go to work.Men and Women now decide these things together in a marriage.Many married people now share these decisions and the responsibilities

traditional marriage.B.The woman’s job at home was very important in the past.C.Many Americans still have a traditional marriage.D.Everyone tries to get married.Passage 3Did you know that the empty plastic soft drink bottles you throw away every day can be turned into carpet or automobiles parts?That used glass bottles and aluminum cans can be turned into new ones?And that yesterday’s newspaper can be turned into tomorrow’s?It all happens because of recycling(再利用).The simple waste we throw away is a “natural resource”that,with recycling,can be used to produce a variety of new products.Unfortunately,America recycles only 10% of its rubbish,burns 10% and deposits 80% in waste desposal grounds,As a result,it is having to cope with a serious solid waste problem.Every year,Americans throw away about 160 million tons of rubbish.Of that total,plastics make up less than 8%,paper about 36%,and glass and metal about 20%,all by weight.Plastics are naturally lighter,but still,when pressed together,accout for only about 20% by volume.As a result,in the past 10 years the United States’ waste disposal grounds have decreased from about 18,500 to 6,000.In five years 2,000 more will close.In the process of finding solutions,some people have proposed to stop using plastics.Unfortunately,stop using plastics would do much harm and no good.We would lose all of the safety,health and convenience features of plastics.Besides,packaging would still be needed.A 1987 study shows what would happen if plastics were not used--the energy needed to produce other packaging,its cost,and the volume of waste collected would all rise greatly.Some Americans believe part of the a nswer to America’s waste problem lies in recycling everything from glass to metals to paper to plastic.Today,recycling is on the rise.There are now more than 1,000 waste recycling programs in the U.S.Many are beginning to recycle plastics.Right now,almost 200 companies are recycling millions of used plastic containers into toys,traffic signs,waste baskets,floor materials,and park benches.Plastics are among the easiest materials to recycle.More than 150 million pounds or 20% of all plastic soft drink bottles were recycled in 1987.11.What can’t the plastic soft drink bottles be turned into?A.Newspapers.B.Automobile parts.C.Toys.D.Traffic signs.312.Of all the rubbish in the U.S.,plastics account for_____by weight and_____by volume.A.20%; 20%B. 8%; 20%C.36%; 8%D.20%; 36%13.On average,waste plastics are_____other wastes.A.as heavy in density asB.heavier in density thanC.lighter in density thanD.the same by weight as14.In 5 years,the U.S.will have only_____waste disposal grounds.A.2,000B.6,000C.4,000D.18,50015.The author of this passage_____the proposal of stopping using plastices.A.says nothing aboutB.is sympathetic withC.agrees toD.disagrees toPassage 4There are two kinds of memory:short-term and rmation in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed.The information may be kept for days or weeks.However,information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds,usually by repeating the information over and over.The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary.The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students.They represented all levels of ability in English:beginning,intermediate,advanced,and native-speaking students.To begin,the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English.Following the recording,the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered.Each question had four choices.The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording.Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike.For example,weather,whethet,wither,and wetter are four words that sound alike.Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning.Method,way,manner,and system would be four words with the same meaning.Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike;students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning.Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of wor ds in their short-term memory,and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.16.Henning made the experiment in order to study_____.A.how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB.how students learn English vocabularyC.how to develop students' ability in EnglishD.how long information in short-term memory is kept17.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?rmation in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B.Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C.It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.4D.Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.18.From Henning’s results we can see that_____.A.beginners have difficulty in distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB.advanced students remember words by their meaningC.it is defficult to remember words that sound alikeD.it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning19.The word “subject” in the pa ssage means_____.A.the college course the students takeB.the theme of the listening materialC.a branch of knowledge studiedD.the student experimented on20.The passage centers on_____.A.memoryB.two kinds of memoryC.short-term memoryD.an experiment on studentsPart II.

still,when pressed together,accout for only about 20% by volume.As a result,in the past 10 years the United States’ waste disposal grounds have decreased from about 18,500 to 6,000.In five years 2,000 more will close.In the process of finding solutions,some people have proposed to stop using plastics.Unfortunately,stop using plastics would do much harm and no good.We would lose all of the safety,health and convenience features of plastics.Besides,packaging would still be needed.A 1987 study shows what would happen if plastics were not used--the energy needed to produce other packaging,its cost,and the volume of waste collected would all rise greatly.Some Americans believe part of the answer to America’s waste problem lies in r ecycling everything from glass to metals to paper to plastic.Today,recycling is on the rise.There are now more than 1,000 waste recycling programs in the U.S.Many are beginning to recycle plastics.Right now,almost 200 companies are recycling millions of used plastic containers into toys,traffic signs,waste baskets,floor materials,and park benches.Plastics are among the easiest materials to recycle.More than 150 million pounds or 20% of all plastic soft drink bottles were recycled in 1987.11.What can’t the plastic soft drink bottles be turned into?A.Newspapers.B.Automobile parts.C.Toys.D.Traffic signs.12.Of all the rubbish in the U.S.,plastics account for_____by weight and_____by volume.A.20%; 20%B. 8%; 20%C.36%; 8%D.20%; 36%13.On average,waste plastics are_____other wastes.A.as heavy in density asB.heavier in density

stopping using plastices.A.says nothing aboutB.is sympathetic withC.agrees toD.disagrees toPassage 4There are two kinds of memory:short-term and rmation in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed.The information may be kept for days or weeks.However,information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds,usually by repeating the information over and over.The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary.The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students.They represented all levels of ability in English:beginning,intermediate,advanced,and native-speaking students.To begin,the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English.Following the recording,the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered.Each question had four choices.The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording.Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike.For example,weather,whethet,wither,and wetter are four words that sound alike.Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning.Method,way,manner,and system would be four words with the same meaning.Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike;students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning.Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory,and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.16.Henning made the experiment in order to study_____.A.how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB.how students learn English vocabularyC.how to develop students' ability in EnglishD.how long information in short-term memory is kept17.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?rmation in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B.Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C.It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.D.Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.18.From Henning’s results we can see that_____.A.beginners have difficulty in distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB.advanced students remember words by their meaningC.it is defficult to remember words that sound alikeD.it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning19.The word “subject” in the passage means_____.A.the college course the students takeB.the theme of the listening materialC.a branch of knowledge studiedD.the student

A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on proceeds at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone’s satisfaction.For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else-he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman brings out such a substitute bluntly; he does so with skill and polish:“I know this jacket is not thestyle you want, sir , but would you like to try it for size. It happens to be the color you mentioned.”Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is:“This is theright color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mindwhat she wants, and she is only“having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeedshe sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She willtry on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of valuewhen they buy clothes. They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain.
