The favorite place to buy a hamburger is a fast food restaurant. At fast food restaurants, people order their food, wait a few minutes, and carry it to their tables themselves. People also take their food out of the restaurant and eat it in their cars or in their homes. At some fast food restaurants, people can order their food, pay for it and pick it up without leaving their cars.There are many kinds of fast food restaurants in the United States. The greatest in number sell hamburgers, French fries and so on. They are popular food among Americans. Besides, fast food, Italian food, chicken, seafood and ice-cream are very many. The idea of a fast food restaurant is so popular that nearly every kind of food can be found in one.Fast food restaurants are popular because they reflect American life style. Customers can wear any type of dress when they go to a fast food place. Second, they are fast. People who are busy do not want to spend time preparing their own food or waiting while someone prepares it . In fast food restaurants the food is usually ready before the customer even orders it. Finally, most food in a fast food restaurant is not expensive. Therefore people are able to buy and eat at fast food restaurant often, while they may not be able to go to a more expensive restaurant very often.41.

There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we cannot detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver, Similarly, we cannot sense radioactivity without a radio detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other things.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hurt anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright, your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they re-produce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in a deformed way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or liable to serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth. 46. The author' s purpose in writing this passage is __________.A. to explain what nuclear power isB. to explain what nuclear radiation isC. to warn people of the danger of nuclearD. to list the bad points of nuclear power 47. All of the following are the shared qualities of nuclear radiation and common radio waves,except __________.A. they are all around usB. they cannot be touchedC. they cannot be seenD. they cannot be detected by human senses 48. The least serious damage nuclear radiation may do on a person is to __________.A. kill a few cells outright, which will be replaced with healthy onesB. damage a fen cells, which will reproduce themselvesC. kill masses of cells in vital organsD. deform some brain cells 49. Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can __________.A. kill large number of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediatelyB. damage cells which may grow into cancer years laterC. affect the healthy growth of the offspringD. all of the above50. We can infer from the passage that __________.A. the danger of nuclear radiation should not be emphasizedB. only nuclear radiation can cause cancerC. some people might have been hurt by nuclear radiation without their realizing itD. nuclear radiation can cause accidentsPassage 3Telephone, television, radio, and the Internet help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices (设备) , ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster (灾难) , such as a flood, can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. This is because modern technology information travels fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller.Of course, this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America. This time difference influenced people's actions. For example, a few battles in the war of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided (避免). A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans (新奥尔良) was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty (条约) had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now. There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.51. Why does news spread fast?A. Because of a peace agreement.B. Because of the changes of the world.C. Because of new technology.D. Because of modem transportation.52. According to this passage, ________ is very important to people in a disaster area.A. the newsB. new ideasC. fast communicationD. modern technology53. Which of the following statements is true based on the text?A. The world now seems smaller because of the faster communication.B. The world is actually smaller today.C. The world is changing in size.D. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812.54. Two hundred years ago, news between the continents was carried _________.A. by telephoneB. by landC. by airD. by sea55. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement had been signed _________.A. by both sidesB. in timeC. in AmericaD. in EnglandPassage 4Anna Douglas was seventy-two years old when she started writing her newspaper column. She had been the director of a school before she retired, but she needed to keep busy. She was even willing to work without pay. That was the reason she found a volunteer job with an agency. The agency that she chose to work for was a business that helped other businesses find jobs for old people. Every day she talked with other retired people like herself. By talking, she recognized two things. Old people had abilities that were not being used. Old people also had problems--mostly problems with communication.Mrs. Douglas found a new purpose for herself. Through the years, from time to time she had written stories about people for national magazines. Now there was a new subject; old people like herself. She began to write a newspaper column called "Over Sixty", which focuses on getting old. She writes about the problems of old people, especially their problems with being misunderstood.Anna Douglas uses her thinking ability to see the truth behind a problem. She understands the reasons why problems begin. She understands old people and young people, too. For example, one of her readers said that his grandchildren left the house as soon as he came to visit. Mrs. Douglas suggested some ways for him to increase understanding with his grandchildren. She told him to listen to young people's music and to watch the most popular television shows."It's important to know something about your grandchildren's world," says Mrs. Douglas. "But most of all, keep your mind open. Do not close out other people. Listen to the other people in your family. Keep on talking. And above all else, keep on listening and communicating. You stop living when you stop sharing ideas with other."56. Mrs. Douglas, aged 72, is _________.A. the director of an agencyB. the director of a schoolC. a business managerD. a columnist57. What Mrs. Douglas needs is _________.A. moneyB. to keep busyC. an easy lifeD. to talk with old people58.

Undoubtedly, they have proved valuable, but they also have disadvantages. For example, they have increased our already large number of crimes.Hacking was the first computer crime that most of us became aware of. By using their computing expertise, hackers can gain unauthorized access to someone else's computer and make use of the data they find there. They may, for example, find lists of their competitors' clients and use these lists to build up their own businesses or they may use hacking technology to fnd out a rival company's plans. Other hacking activities may be more obviously criminal, because hackers may log on to financial data in someone else's computer and alter it illegally or use it for fraudulent(欺诈的)purposes.The possibility of serious financial fraud has been greatly increased by the modern practice of purchasing goods through the Internet. Apparently, the use of credit cards to pay for purchase has led to many people being swindled(骗取) out of a great deal of money. Banks are working hard to improve online security and to provide safeguards for customers, but frauds are working just as hard to improve their techniques of deceiving people.Many computer users worry about thoir Systems bcing alfected by computor viruses. Pcople who introduce these bugs into other people'8 compuler programs may not intentionally commit a crime but may do so as an act of mischief. The motive does not really matter to people whose data has been deleted or altered or whose files have been corrupted. Computers are part of a highly technical method of working,in which there are constantly new developments. Unfortunately, there is also a constant stream of new developments in the fraud industry associated with them. All computer users must be on their guard.41. From the passage we can know that ________.A. computers are not a relatively new inventionB. computers have proved to be a curse rather than a blessingC. computers have proved to be of utue significanceD. computers have walked into our lives recently42. According to the passage, which of the following can make shopping online safe?A. Improving the banking security systemB. Always using credit cards.C. Withdrawing money from a bank only when you need it .D.Asking friends to shop online for you43.According to the passage, ________.A. computer users must be on guard against computer crimesB. hackers have authorized access to someone else's computerC people don't have to care much about computer virusesD. computer crimes can be prevented easily44. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as an example of hacking?A. Accessing someone else's financial dataB. Finding out a competitor's plansC. Sending computer viruses to the publicD. Finding the lists of a competitor's clients45. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A. Advantages of ComputersB Disadvantages of ComputersC. Computer HackinD. Computers Have Become a Must in PeoPassage 2The terms “global warming” and “climate change” are used by many, seemingly interchangeably. But do they really mean the same thing?Scientists shaped the history of the terms while attempting to accurately describe how humans continueto alter the planet. Later, political strategists adopted the terms to influence public opinion.In 1975, geochemist Wallace Broecker introduced the term “climate change” in an article published by Science. In 1979, a National Academy of Sciences report used the term “global warming” to define increases in the Earth’s average surface temperature, while “climate change” more broadly referred to the numerous effects of this increase, such as sea-level rise and ocean acidification (酸化).During the following decades, some industrialists and politicians launched a campaign to sow doubt in the minds of the American public about the ability offossil-fuel use, deforestation and other human activities to influence the planet’s climate.Word use played a critical role in developing that doubt. For example, the language and polls expert Frank Luntz wrote a memo encouraging the use of “climate change” because the phrase sounded less scary than “global warming”, reported the Guardian.However, Luntz’s recommendation wasn’t necessary. A Google Ngram Viewer chart shows that by 1993 climatechange was already more commonly used in books than global warming. By the end of the next decade both words were used more frequently, and climate change was used nearly twice as often as global warming. NASA used the term “climate change” because it more accurately reflects the wide range of changes to the planet caused by increasing amounts of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.The debate isn’t new. A century ago, chemist Svante Arrhenius started one of the first debates over the potential for humans to influence the planet’s climate. Arrhenius calculated the capability of carbon dioxide to trap heat in the Earth’s atmosphere, but other chemists disagreed. Some argued that humans weren’t producing enough greenhouse gases, while others claimed the effects would be tiny. Now, of course, we know that whatever you call it, human behavior is warming the planet, with grave consequences ahead.51.Why did politicians use the two terms“ "global warming”“ and“ climate change？A) To sway public opinion of the impact of humanactivities on Earth.B) To more accurately describe the consequences ofC) To win more popular votes in their campaign activities.D) To assure the public of the safety of existing industries52. As used in a National Academy of Sciences report.,the term“ "climate change" differs from“ global warming”in that_______A) it sounds less vagueB)it looks more scientifC)it covers more phenomenaD)it is much closer to reality53. What did industrialists of the late20 Oth century resort to in order to mislead Americans?A)Made-up survey resultsB)Hired climate expertsC)False research findingsD)Deliberate choice of words54. Why did NASA choose the term "climate change"?A) To obtain more fundsB.For greater precisionC)For political needsD) To avoid debate55. What is the author's final conclusion?A)Global warming is the more accurate termB) Accuracy of terminology matters in scienceC)Human activities have serious effects on EarthD)Politics interferes with serious scientific debate翻译1.Wearing a seat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.2.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of themthere are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decideon thebest choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1It is very important to develop a powerful strategy throughoutthe job hunting process that has three main components: a solidresume format based on your achievements, a dynamic resume coverletter that gets an employer’s attention, and a cons istent strategythat binds everything together.FIRS (First Impression Resume Services) offer personally designedresume and cover letter strategies and interview training by aCertified Professional Resume Writer and Certified EmploymentInterview Profess ional.

By knowing the right questions to ask, First I mpression can help you look ahead and uncover related information you may have overlooked.We ascribe to a professional Code of Ethics and guarantee prompt, courteous, professional, and ethicals. First Impression offers professional resume writing help, job readiness, and personal support to adults who are in need.61. A good resume design must include _____.A. achievements, cover letter and a consistent strategyB. a solid resume format, grabs an employer's attention; binds everything togetherC. format design, cover design and consistence considerationD. none of the above62. It was most probably that First Impression Resume Services was _____.A. an office that interviews people who are looking for a jobB. an office that gives advice to job-hunting people on how to succeed in getting employedC. an office that interviews people who are looking for a jobD. an office that gives advice to young people who want to start a profession63. What does the office offer?A. A variety of resume samples.B. Interview training.C. Personally designed resumes and cover letter strategies.D. All of the above.64. From the context, we can guess that the word “tip” (inparagraph 3) probably means________.A. extremityB. pointC. premiumD. advice65. The office guarantees that _____.A. they will give theirs on the basis of the Code of EthicsB. they will give perfectsC. they will offer professional help to all kinds of peopleD. all of the abovePassage 2When your parents tell you to “get an education” in order to raise your income, they tell you only half the truth. What they really mean is to get just enough education to provide manpower for your society, but not so much that you prove an embarrassment to your society.At least, you need to get a high school diploma, without it, you will be occupationally dead unless your name is George Bernard Shaw or Thomas Alva Edison, and you can successfully drop out in grade school.If possible, get a college degree. With a B.A, you are on the launching pad. But now you have to start to put on the brakes. If you study for a master’s degree, make sure it is an MBA, and is famous law of diminishing returns begins to happen. Do you know, for example, that long-haul truck drivers earn more per year than full professors? Yes, the average 1977 salary for those truckers was $24000. While the full professors can earn just $ 23030.A Ph.D. is the highest degree you can get. Except for a few specialized fields such as physics or chemistry where the degreecan quickly be turned to industrial or commercial purposes, if you pursue such a degree in any other field, you will face a dim future. There are more Ph.D.s unemployed or underemployed in this country than any other part of the world.If you become a doctor of philosophy in English or history or anthropology or political science or languages, or worst of all in philosophy, you have the risk of becoming overeducated for our national demands. Not for our needs, mind you, but for our demands. Thousands of Ph.D.s are driving cars, selling shoes, waiting on table, and filling out applications every month. They may also take a job in some high school or backwater college that pays much less than the doorkeeper earns.You can equate the level of income with the level of education only so far. Far enough, that is, to make you useful to the gross national product, but not so far that nobody can turn much of a profit on you.66. According to the writer, what the society expects of education is to turn out people who ____.A. will not be a disgrace to societyB. will become loyal citizensC. can take care of themselvesD. can meet the nation’s demands as a sour ce of manpower67. Many PhDs are out of job because _____.A. they are improperly educatedB. they are of little commercial value to their societyC. there are fewer jobs in high schoolsD. they prefer easier jobs that make more money68. The nation is only interested in people _____.A. with diplomasB. who specialize in physics and chemistryC. who are valuable to the gross national productD. both A and C.69. Which of the following is not true?A. Bernard Shaw didn’t finish high schools, nor did Edison.B. One must think carefully before pursuing a master degree.C. The higher your education level, the more money you will earn.D. If you are too well-educated, you’ll be over educated for society’s demands.70. The writer sees education as _____.A. a means of providing job security and financial security and a means of meeting a c ountry’s demands for technical workersB. a way to broaden one’s horizonsC. more important than finding a jobD. an opportunity that everyone should havePassage 3Not all Americans are fit, or even try to be fit. The overall population is becoming heavier, because of bad eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle. Some researches estimate that less than half of Americans exercise in their leisure time. Experts say that it is not be cause Americans “don’t know what’s good for them”? They just don’t do it. Compared to the beginning of the 1980s, 75% of Americans in the 1990s say that physical fitness is more important to them now than it was then. But the National Center for Health Statistics reports that the number of people who are at least 20% over their desirable weight has risen from one in four to one in three Americans.Full of information on nutrition and proper diet is on newspapers and magazines. Television news programs urgepeople to eat more vegetables and warn of the dangers of high-fat diets and high cholesterol levels, particularly heart disease and certain types of cancer. Since 1994 the government has required uniform labeling so that consumers can compare the fat and calories in the food they buy. More than half of Americans say that they pay attention to the nutritional content of the food they eat, but they also eat what they really want whenever they feel like it.Experts say that it is a combination of social, cultural, and psychological factors that determine the way people eat. An article on America’s weight problems refers to “the culture of over-indulgence seemingly ingrained in American life”. “The land of plenty seems destined to include plenty of pounds as wel l,” they conclude. Part of the problem is that Americans eat larger portions and often go back for second helpings, in contrast to the reasonable amount people in many other countries have.Another factor is A mericans’ love of fast food. Some estimates are that 50% of Americans eat pizza once every two week, a percentage that is no doubt quite a bit higher among high school and college students. Americans are having more and more hamburgers, French fries, and soft drinks at restaurants, not only because they like them, but because these foods are the cheapest items.Another important factor is Americans’ busy lifestyle. Since so many women are working, families are eating a lot of fast food, frozen dinners, and restaurant “takeout”. Some experts think that Americans have really lost control of their eating; it is not possible to limit fat and calories when they eat so much restaurant and packaged food. It takes some time to preparefresh vegetables and fish; stopping at KFC on the way home from work is a much faster choice. Often American families eat "on the run" instead of sitting down at the table together.71. More than half of Americans do not exercise in their leisure time because______.A. they want to live a comfortable lifeB. they don’t know what’s good for themC. they are busyD. they just don't do it72. The number of overweighed people is _______.A. one in fourB. one in threeC. 20 percent of the populationD. 50 percent73. What does the word “over-i ndulgence” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Eating too much.B. Extreme work.C. Exercising too much.D. Sleeping too much.74. Americans like fast food because _______.A. it is cheapB. it is available everywhereC. Americans are quite busyD. all of the above75. We infer from the passage that _______.A. Americans usually sit down at the table and enjoy their foodB. Americans often eat at restaurantsC. Americans often eat in a hurryD. Americans often eat with their familiesPassage 4Beauty has always been regarded as something praiseworthy by people. Almost everybody thinks attractive people are healthier and happier, and have better marriage and have more respectable jobs. Consultants give them better advice for finding jobs. Even judges are kinder on attractive defendants. But in the executive circle, beauty can become a liability.While attractiveness is relatively positive for a man in his way up the executive ladder, it is harmful to a woman. Handsome male executives were regarded as having more integrity than plainer men; effort and ability were considered to account for their success. While attractive female executives were thought to have less integrity than unattractive ones; their success was attributed not to ability but to factors such as luck.All unattractive women executives were thought to have more integrity and capability than the attractive female executives. It is interesting that the rise of the unattractive overnight success was attributed more to personal relationships and less to ability than was that of attractive overnight success.Why are charming women not thought to be capable? An attractive woman is considered to be more feminine (and an attractive man more masculine.) Thus, an attractive woman has an advantage in traditional female jobs, but an attractive woman in a traditionally masculine position appears to lack the “masculine” qualities that are required.This is true even in politics. “If the only clue is how he or she looks, people treat men and women differentl y,” says Anne Bowman, who recently published a study on the effects of attractiveness on political candidates. She asked 125undergraduate students to rank two groups of photos, one of men and one of women, in order of attractiveness. The students were told the photos were of candidates for political offices. They were asked to rank them again, in the order that they would vote for them. The results showed that attractive males utterly defeated unattractive men, but the women who had been ranked most attractive invariably received the fewest votes.76. The word “liability” in Paragraph 1 most probably means “_______”.A. misfortuneB. instabilityC. disadvantageD. burden77. In traditionally female jobs, attractiveness _______.A. reinforces the feminine qualities requiredB. makes women look more honest and capableC. is of primary importance to womenD. often enables women to succeed quickly78. Bowman’s experime nt reveals that when it comes to politics, attractiveness _____.A. turns out to be an obstacle to menB. affects men and women alikeC. has as little effect on men as on womenD. is more of an obstacle than a benefit to women79. It can be inferred from t he passage that people’s views on beauty are often _____.A. practicalB. prejudicedC. old-fashionedD. radical80. The author writes this passage to _______.A. discuss the negative aspects of being attractiveB. give advice to job seekers who are attractiveC. demand equal rights for womenD. emphasize the importance of appearancePart ⅣTranslation ( 2 × 10 points)Directions: There are 10 sentences in this section. Please translate sentences 81～85 from Chinese into English, and translate sentences 86～90 from English into Chinese. Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.81.当我最后终于有时间去医院看他时，已经为时太晚。

Reading Comprehension (50points)Passage OneStories don't just happen ; they are created. There are no stories in the everyday course of events; there are only the ingredients for stories. A dozen people may watch a man standing on the fifth-floor ledge or a small child crying. There is no story involved in either case unless one of the dozen chooses to make one up—to surround the isolated event with a beginning and an end, thereby giving what we call a meaningto human action. In other words, there has to be a story-maker--a story-teller--if there is to be a story.You as the story-maker or writer are in complete control of all of the details of your story. You have control over who the characters are, what they do, and why they do it. You also have control over how the story is to be told and who is going to tell it. You can adopt one of a number of points of view, each of which will give a quite different total story.Broadly speaking, there are two major approaches a writer can take: (1) you can present the story as if told by someone who is completely outside it, or (2) you can present the story as if told by one of its characters. In either case, the teller's role is an assumed role.1. The author of this passage uses ingredients to mean ______.A. creative featuresB. unimportant detailsC. misleading factsD. raw materials2. Who controls all the details of the story?A. The story-maker.B. The characters.C. The publisher.D. The proofreader.3. The main idea of this passage is ______.A. stories are createdB. nonfiction stories are trueC. legends are a type of storyD. most stories are historical accounts4. Based on the two approaches mentioned in the passage, the story can be told by ______.A. the one who writes the storyB. people who create storiesC. the man who is watched by peopleD. the one who is one of the charactersPassage TwoThe thought of not sleeping for twenty-four hours or more is not a pleasant one for most people. The amount of sleep that each person needs varies. In general, each of us needs about eight hours of sleep each day to keep our bodies healthy and happy. Some people, however, can get by just a few hours of sleep at night.It doesn't matter when or how much a person sleeps. But everyone needs some rest to stay alive. Few doctors would have thought that there might be an exception on this. Sleep is, after all, a very basic need. But a man named A1 Herpin turned out to be a real exception, for supposedly, he never slept!A1 Herpin was 90 years old when doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They hoped to negate the claims that he never slept. But they were surprised. Though they watched him every hour of the day, they never saw Herpin sleeping. He did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The closest that Herpin came to resting was to sit in a rocking chair and read a half dozen newspapers. His doctors were baffled by this strange case of permanent insomnia. Herpin offered the only clue to his condition. He remembered some talk about his mother having been injured several days before he had been born. Herpin died at the age of 94, never having slept a wink.5. This passage centers on ______.A. dream interpretationB. patterns of sleepC. A1 Herpin's sleepless lifeD. sleeps and dreams6. The expression "get by", in the last sentence of the first paragraph is ______.A. a confusing expressionB. a rude expressionC. an everyday expressionD. an improper expression7. A1 Herpin's condition could be regarded as ______.A. normalB. curableC. healthfulD. rare8. The most likely reason on Herpion's insomnia was ______.A. his mother's injury before he was bornB. that he never got tiredC. his magnificent physical conditionD. that he got enough rest rockingPassage ThreeAmericans are well known for the strange diets they always seem to be following. It seems that Americans like to diet almost as much as they like to eat. New types of diet plans are always coming out. Usually, though, they don't stay popular for long.There are many diets on the market. It is often difficult to know which ones really work. It's also hard to believe how fast a dieter is supposed to shed pounds. A lot has been written about dieting. And some interesting facts about diets and foods have been discovered.For example, did you know that the more celery you eat, the more weight you will lose.9 Celery has "negative" calories. The body burns up more calories digesting a piece of celery than there are in the celery stick itself.Dieters shun potatoes because they think they are fattening. But they aren't. A potato has about the same number of calories as an apple. To gain a single pound, you would have to eat eleven pounds of potatoes!Some dieters even worry about getting fat from licking postage stamps. But they have nothing to worry about. The glue on an average stamp has only about one-tenth of a calorie. Maybe a diet of postage stamps would be popular?9. This passage is all about ______.A. vegetablesB. fadsC. AmericansD. dieting10. Celery is a good food for the dieter because ______.A. it has a lot of proteinB. vegetables are not fatteningC. it has "negative" caloriesD. it is easy to digest11. The shun is to ______.A. loveB. hateC. avoidD. fear12. One could conclude from this passage that ______.A. dieting is not a healthy practiceB. everyone dietsC. there is only one good way to lose weightD. dieting can be confusingPassage FourHow can we get rid of garbage? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs?These are two important questions that many people are asking today. Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time. They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the same time it can save the land tohold garbage.For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped it on empty land. Now, empty land is scarce. But more and more garbage is produced each year. However, garbage can be a good fuel to use. The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas; but they are chemically similar to these fossil fuels. As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source. Burning garbage is not a new idea. Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years. The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water. The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings. In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year. The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.Our fossil fuel supplies are limited. Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs. This method could also reduce the amount if garbage piling up on the earth.13. What two problems can man solve by burning garbage?A. The shortage of energy and air pollution.B. The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.C. Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuel.D. Air pollution and the shortage of land to hold garbage.14. According to the passage, using garbage is ______.A. for heating in France each yearB. a new way in a modern societyC. a good way to solve the problem of energy shortageD. too expensive as an energy source15. What is the author's attitude?A. Delighted.B. Sad.C. Agreeing.D. Disagreeing.16. The best title for the passage may be ______.A. Garbage and the EarthB. Fossil Fuel and GarbageC. Land and GarbageD. Garbage? Energy SourcePassage FiveIn 1924, Nordic ski events were held at the first Winter Olympics in Chamonix, France. But the American skiers came home without medals. Norway took most of the medals for cross-country and ski jumping events that year. They did the same for many years after. From 1924 through 1972, the American skiers had no medals to show for their Olympic trips. The U.S. was generally thought to be weak in ski competition.But in 1974 it was discovered that the U. S. record was slightly better than people had been led to believe. And Norway's record was not quite as good. The discovery was a surprise and a delight to American ski fans, but even more so to American skier Anders Haugen. After fifty years, Anders got the medal he should have won back in 1924.In the ski jump event at Chamonix in 1924, Haugen had scored in fourth place. He had just missed earning a medal. His score was 17.916, just slightly behindThorleif Haug of Norway. Haug's score of 18 had won him the bronze medal.But in 1974, Norway's National Olympic Committee did a check of all final Olympic results. There had been an error in computing Haug's score! So Haugen, now, an elderly man, traveled across the ocean for his award. On September 12,1974, he was given a bronze medal in a special ceremony at the Norway Ski Museum.17. The best title for this passage would be ______.A. the 1924 OlympicsB. Norway's SkiersC. An Olympic Record CorrectedD. American Skiers in the Olympics18. From 1924-1972, U. S. skiers were considered weak in Olympic competition because they ______.A. had won only two medalsB. had won no medalsC. had never entered jumping eventsD. had won only one medal19. The writer says "the discovery was a surprise and a delight to American ski fans" in order to ______.A. show that the error and its correction were important to ski fans as well as to HaugenB. show that the error was more important to fans than to HaugenC. suggest that the Americans eared more about the error than the NorwegiansD. suggest that there had been no error20. The best definition for the word computing is ______.A. writingB. judgingC. figuringD. multiplyingⅡ. Translation (25points)1.It won’t make much difference whether you leave or stay.2.In spite of all the difficulties, they are determined to carry out their promises.3.A product that is placed at eye level on a shelf sells much better that one which is placed on a lower or higher shelf.4.As well as being used for taking photographs, X-rays are also used for treating disease parts of the body in order to kill the disease.5.In Britain today it is easier for young people to commit crimes because they have more freedom to go where they like and more money to do what they like.V.

The first building was a castle.In 1190, it was the king’s castle with high walls and a round tower.It had a river to keep out the enemies.Over the years, the number of the buildings around the castle grew.By 1350, the castle no longer needed to be extended.The Louvre became a palace home for French kings and queens.During times of peace, new treasures were brought in.During the days of war, many treasures were stolen, and the buildings, were damaged.When FrancisI became king of France in 1515, he brought in many artists from other countries.One of the artists was Leonardo da Vinci from Italy.Da Vinci’s "Mona L isa" is the best-known painting in the museum today.In 1793, the Louvre became a public museum, just as it is now.It is a place where art treasures are kept for everyone to enjoy, Every year millions of people from all over the world come to the Louvre to see the masterpieces.（）40.How long has the Louvre been a public museum?A.For over 800 years.B.Since 1350C.Since 1515D.For over 200 years.（）41.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A.Da Vinci once stayed in France.B."Mona Lisa" is kept in the Louvre.C.The Louvre was once a church as well as a palace.D.The Louvre is a place of interest to different people from all over the world.（）42.We know from the passage that _____.A.French kings and queens ordered people to build another buildings as their palace home in 1350B.many treasures were brought into the Louvre in 1190C.FrancisI came into power in 1515 and damaged some buildingsD.Some works of art in the museum have been collected from many countries（）43.The passage is mainly about _____.A.an art museum called the LouvreB.an Italian artist named Leonardo da VinciC.a king of France named Francis ID.the best-known painting in the Louvre Passage ThreeOn the first day of class, Mr. Whiteson gave us a lecture about a creature(生物) called cattytiger, a kind of cat-like animal that completely disappeared during the Ice Age.He passed round a skull (头骨) as he talked, and we all felt interested and took notes while ter, we had a test about that.When he returned my paper, I was very, very surprised.There was a very large cross through each of my answers.And so it was with everyone else’s in our class.What had happened? Everyone was wondering and couldn’t wait to get the answer.Very simple, Mr. Whiteson explained.He had made up all that story about the cattytiger.There had never been such an animal.So why none of us noticed that and how could we expect good marks for the incorrect answers?Needless to say, we got very angry.What kind of teacher was this?We should have guessed it out, Mr. Whiteson said.After all, at the very moment he was passingaround the cattytiger skull (in fact, a cat’s), hadn’t he been telling us that it completely disappear ed during the Ice Age? Clearly he was telling a lie.But we just kept busy making notes and none used his head.We should learn something from this.Teachers and textbooks are not always correct.（）44.We failed in the test because we didn’t _____.A.take notes while listeningB.show interest in what Mr. Whiteson saidC.listen to the teacher carefullyD.think carefully（）45.We got angry because _____.A.Mr. Whiteson didn’t tell us the truth about cattytigerB.we failed in the testC.we didn’t know why he played the joke on usD.there was no cattytiger（）46.Mr. Whiteson gave us a special lesson_____ .A.to show his special way of teachingB.to play a joke on usC.to help us learn our lessons betterD.so that we would no longer believe him（）47.Mr. Whiteson meant that _____.A.teachers couldn’t make any mistakesB.textbooks might be wrong sometimesC.we should speak up if we thought our teacher or the textbook was wrongD.we shouldn’t believe our teachers because sometimes they might tell liesPassage FourShopping is not as simple as you may think！There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand （品牌）of product on the shelf.Colouring,for example.,varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged （包装）in greens,yellows or browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods,like chocolates,are gold or silver.When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently,researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually.,it came on the market in a dark blue and white package—blue because we think of it as safe,and white as calm.The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn’t contain as much as it appears to.It is believed that the better-known companies spend,on average,70 percent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging！The most successful producers know that it’s not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears soap,who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote （推销）their goods,came to the conclusion：“Any fool can make soap,but it takes a genius （天才）t o sell it.”（）48. Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text？A. The cost of its package.B. The price of the product.C. The colour of its package.D. The brand name of the product.（）49. The underlined part“the colours turned the customers off”（in Para. 3 ）means that the colours _____.A. attracted the customers stronglyB. had weak effects on the customersC.tricked the customers into shoppingD. caused the customers to lose interest（）50. Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales？A. The way to promote goods.B.The discovery of a genius.C. The team to produce a good product.D. The brand name used by successful producers. （）51. Which of the following would be the best title for this text？A. Choice of Good ProductsB.Disadvantages of ProductsC. Effect of Packaging on ShoppingD. Brand Names and Shopping TricksPassage FiveHave you ever argued with your loved ones over simple misunderstandings(误解)？Little wonder. We often believe we’re more skillful in getting our point across than we actually are，according to Boza Keysar，a professor at the University of Chicago. In his recent study，speakers tried to express their meanings using unclear sentences. Speakers who thought listeners understood were wrong nearly half the time. Here’s some good advice to reduce misunderstanding：(1)Don’t trust what you see from the listener. Listeners often nod，look at you or say"uhhuh"to be polite or move the conversation along. But it’s easy to consider these as signs of understanding.(2)Train the editor(编辑)in your head. If you say，"Beth discusses her problems with her husband，"it’s not clear whether she’s talking to her husband or about him. Try instead，"Beth talks to her husband about her problems."or"Beth talks to others about the problems with her husband."(3)Ask listeners to repeat your message. Introduce your request by saying"I want to be sure I said that right."Questions like"How does that sound？"or"Does that make sense？"may also work. (4)Listen well. When on the receiving end，ask questions to be sure you’re on the same page. After all，it isn’t just the speaker’s job to make his speech understood.（）52. Why does the writer give us the advice？A.We’re not skillful enough to make clear sentences.B.Misunderstanding is damaging our normal lives.C. Misunderstanding occurs now and then.D.It’s impolite to say NO to others.（）53. The writer suggests that when talking to others，the speaker should _____.A. know that listeners will show him that they understand his wordsB.express himself clearly even when he sees signs of understandingC. notice listener’s signs of understandingD.look directly into his listener’s eyes（）54. By Train the editor in your head，the speakers are advised _____.A. to get themselves trained by a good editorB. to discuss problems with their husbands or wivesC. to express themselves in long but simple sentencesD.to make sure each sentence has only one meaning（）55. In the last paragraph，the underlined words you’re on the same page mean that _____.A. you’re following the speakers closelyB. you’re reading the same page as the speaker doesC.you should know which page the speaker refers toD. your story is written on the same page as the speaker’sV.Daily Conversation (15 points)Direction:Pick out five appropriate expression from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.See you this eveningB.I’ve gotta runC.See you againD.won’t be back for supperE.I’ll go to the officeF.Take careG.Don’t worryH.I’ll just take the subway Gary:Dear,I have to go to the office early today.Can you take Sally to school?Ada:Sure.Want me to give you a ride?Gary:No,forget it. 56 .It’s very quick.I’ll pick Sally up this afternoon.You can just comehome after work.Ada:OK.Oh,I almost forgot.I probably 57 .I’ve made an evening appoin tment with Mr.Stevento talk about our next project.Gary:Oh,I see. 58 .Hurry Sally up a little.She hasn’t even had her breakfast yet.Ada:OK. 59 .Love you,honey.Gary:I love you,too. 60 .Directons:For this part, you are supposed to write a composition of about100~200 words according to the following topic.Where to Live—in the City or in the Country？Base your composition on the outline given below.61、（1）. 一些人喜欢住在城市，因为城市生活有许多便利。

Each section 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 write your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1It remains to be seen whether the reserves of raw materials would be sufficient to supply a world economy which would have grown by 500 per cent. Southeast Asia alone would have an energy consumption five times greater than that of Western Europe in 1970. Incidentally, if the underdeveloped countries started using up pet petrol at the same rate as the industrialized areas, then world reserves would already be exhausted by 1985.All this only goes to show just how important it is to set up a plan to conserve and divide up fairly natural resources on a world－wide scale．This is a matter of life and death because world population is exploding at an incredible rate．By the middle of the next century population will expand every year by as much as it did in the first 1500 years after Christ. In the southern, poor part of the globe, the figures are enough to make your hair stand on end．Even supposing that steps are taken to stabilize world population in the next fifty years, the number of inhabitants per square kilometer will increase by from 4 in the United States to 140 in Southeast Asia．What can we do about it?In the first hypothesis we do nothing．By the year 2000, the southern parts of the world would then have a population greater than the total world population today. Calcutta would have 60 million inhabitants. It is unthinkable．Alternatively, we could start acting tight now to bring births under control within fifteen years ago so that population levels off．Even then the population in the southern areas would not stop growing for seventy－five years.71．By the year 2000 the world economy will have grown by ______.A．500 per centB．100 per centC．four timesD．an unknown amount72．World petrol reserves will be used up by 1985 if ______.A．Western European consumption continues to expandB．Southeast Asia does not limit its consumptionC．underdeveloped countries start to use petrol at the same rate as Western EuropeD．World population continues to expand73．If we took effective measures right now, the world’s population _________.A.could stabilize in thirty－five years’ timeB．would not stop growing for seventy－five yearsC．would stop growing in about fifteen years’ time from nowD.could stabilize in about seventy－five years’ time74．The author suggests in the passage that _________.A．world petrol supplies will have been exhausted by 1985B．we need to use natural resources carefully and divide them up equallyC．to slow down the economic growth in developed countries might be a best policyD．raw materials will not be enough for the world economy in 200075．The purpose of the author in writing this passage is to _________.A．urge people to start taking action right awayB．tell people about the astounding rate of population growthC．describe the problems the world will be faced withD．give an account of the relationship between population growth and industryPassage 2Why do some new products succeed, bringing millions of dollars to innovative companies, while others fail, with great losses? The answer is not simple, and certainly we cannot say that “good” products succeed while “bad” products fail. Many products that function well and seem to meet consumer needs have fallen by the wayside．Sometimes, virtually identical products exist in the market at the same time with one emerging as profitable while the other fails.McNeal Laboratories’ Tylenol has become successful as an aspirin substitute, yet Bristol－Meyers entered the test market at about the same time with Neotrend, also a substitute for aspirin, which quickly failed．The nature of the product is a factor in its success or failure, but the important point is the consumer’s perception of the products need－satisfying capability. Any new product conception should be aimed at meeting a customer need, and the introductory promotion should seek to communicate that need satisfying quality and motivate the customer to try the product. Often, attitude change is involved, and, in the extreme, changes in life－style may be sought.Here the company walks a tightrope．A new product is more likely to be successful if it represents a truly novel way of solving a customer problem, but this very newness, if carried too far, may asked the customer to learn new behavior patterns. The customer will make the change if the perceived benefit is sufficient, but inertia is strong and consumers will often not go to the effort that is required．During the late sixties and early seventies Bristol－Meyers met with new product failures that exemplify both of these problems. In 1967 and 1968 the company entered the market with a $5 million advertising campaign for Fact toothpaste, and an $11 million campaign to promote Resolve．Both products failed quickly, not because they didn’t work or because there was no consumer need, but apparently because consumers just could see no reason to shift from an already satisfactory product to a different one that promised no new benefit.76．The first sentence of first paragraph is a question, to which, the answer is _______.A．that the good products succeed while the bad failB．that the “good” are not really good but the “bad” are actually badC．that new products will succeed if they function well and fail if they don’tD．not given in the paragraph77．What are Tylenol and Neotrend?A．They are names of two drug manufacturers.B．They are probably two brands of medicine which serve as a substitute for aspirin.C．Tylenol is a drug manufacturer whereas Neotrend is a new substitute medicine for aspirin.D．They are probably the names of two laboratories.78．The success or failure of a product seems to be determined by a number of factors, one of which, the author emphasizes, is the consumer’s perception of the product’s _______.A．quality and priceB．usefulness and durabilityC．need－satisfying capabilityD．appearance and inner packing79．What does the author mean when he says “the company walks a tightrope” （see sentence 1, paragraph 3）?A．The company has both the chance to succeed and to fail in dealing in a new product.B．The company has to study the customer’s behavior before a new product is introduced．C．The company has to find a new way to solve customer’s problems before a new product is put on the market.D．The company has to make a great effort to overcome the customer’s intertia．80．Bristol－Meyers failed in promoting Fact toothpaste and Resolve because _____.A．these products were too expensive as compared with their direct competitorsB．both products failed to meet the customers’ needC．the customers could see no sense of a radica1 change of their habitsD．the company forgot an English saying: “You cannot teach an old dog new tricks”Passage 3The more women and minorities make their way into the ranks of management, the more they seem to want to talk about things formerly judged to be best left unsaid．The newcomers also tend to see office matters with a fresh eye, in the process sometimes coming up with critical analyses of the forces that shape everyone’s experience in the organization.Consider the novel views of Harvey Coleman of Atlanta on the subject of getting ahead．Coleman is black．He spent 11 years with IBM, half of them working in management development, and now serves as a consultant to the likes of AT&T, Coca－Cola, Prudential, and Merch．Coleman says that based on what he’s seen at big companies, he weighs the different elements that make for long－term career success as follows: performance counts a mere 10％; image, 30％; and exposure, a full 60％.Coleman concludes that excellent job performance is so common these days that while doing your work well may win you pay increases, it won’t secure you the big promotion. He finds that advancement more often depends on how many people know you and your work, and how high up they are．Ridiculous beliefs? Not to many people, especially many women and members of minority races who, like Coleman, feel that he scales have dropped from their eyes. “Women and blacks in organizations work under false beliefs,” says Kaleel Jamison, a New York－based management consultant who helps corporations deal with these issues. “They think that if you work hard, you’ll get ahead – that someone in authority will reach down and give you a promotion.” She adds, “Most women and blacks are so frightened that people think they’ve gotten ahead because of their sex or color that they play down their visibility.” Her advice to those folks: learn the ways thatwhite males have traditionally used to find their way into the spotlight.81．According to the passage, “things formerly judged to be best left unsaid” （Lined 3, Pare．1）probably refers to “______”.A.criticisms that shape everyone’s experienceB．the opinion which contradict the established beliefsC．the tendencies that help the newcomers to see office matters with a fresh eyeD．the ideas which usually come up with new ways of management in the organization82．To achieve success in your career, the most important factor, according to the passage, is to _____.A．let your superiors know how good you areB．project a favorable image to the people around youC．work as a consultant to your superiorsD．perform well your tasks given by your superiors83．The reason why women and blacks play down their visibility is that they ______.A．know that someone in authority will reach down and give them a promotionB．want to give people the impression that they work under false beliefsC．don’t want people to think that their promotions were due to sex or colorD．believe they can get promoted by reason of their sex or color84．The author is of the opinion that Coleman’s beliefs are ________.A．biasedB．popularC．insightfulD．superficial85．The best title for this passage would be ________.A．Role of Women and Minorities in ManagementB．The Importance of Being VisibleC．Job Performance and AdvancementD．Sex and Career SuccessPassage 4Geologists have been studying volcanoes for a long time．Though they have learned a great deal, they still have not discovered the causes of volcanic action, they know that the inside of earth is very hot, but they are not sure exactly what causes the great heat. Some geologists have thought that the heat is caused by the great pressure of the earth’s outer layers. Or the heat may be left from the time when the earth was formed．During the last sixty years scientists have learned about radium, thorium, and other radioactive elements. These give out the heat all the time as they change into other elements. Many scientists now believe that much of the heat inside the earth is produced by radioactive elements.Whatever the cause of the heat may be, we do know that the earth getter hotter the farther down we dig．In deep mines and oil wells the temperature rises about IF. for each 50 feet. At this rate the temperature 40 miles below the earth’s surface would be over 4000 F. This is much hotter necessary to melt rock．However, the pressure of the rock above keeps most materials from melting at their usual melting points. Geologists believe that the rock deep in the earth may be plastic, or puttylike．In other words, the rock yields slowly to pressure but is not liquid．But if some changes in the earth’s crust releases the pressure, the rock melts. Then the hot, liquid rock can move up toward the surface．When the melted rock works its way close to the earth’s crust, a volcano may be formed．The melted rock often contains steam and other gases under great pressure．If the rock above gives way, the pressure is released．Then the sudden expansion of the gases causes explosions. These blow the melted rock into pieces of different sizes and shoot them high in the air．Here they cool and harden into volcanic ash and cinders. Some ofthis materials falls around the hole made in the earth’s surface．The melted rock may keep on rising and pour out as lava．In this way, volcanic ash, cinders, and lava build up the cone－shaped mountains t that we call volcanoes.86．This passage mainly deals with the ______.A．A. causes of volcanic actionB．formation of volcanoesC．results of volcanic actionD．work of geologists87．The cause for the heat in interior of the earth is _____.A．radioactive elementsB．the great pressure of the earthC．not mentioned in the passageD．the heat remaining from the formation of the earth88．From the information given in the passage, most minerals would melt ____.A．A. at 400 F, 5000 feet above sea levelB．at 400F, 5000 feet below sea levelC．at 4000F, at sea levelD．with the pressure of the rock above89．From the passage we know that “thorium”（para．1）may be _____.A．volcanoB．radioactive elementC．the earth’s out layerD．heat inside the earth90．The main idea of the last paragraph is _____.A．what causes explosionsB.cause of volcanoesC．formation of volcanoes at earth’s surfaceD．melted rockPartⅤTranslation. （4’* 5 ＝20’）91．所有想制止战争的努力都失败了。

Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are 12 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneThis is not the world we know. This world is controlled by computers. Men and women can be seen, but they are following orders given to them by machines. The machines were designed by mad scientists, but at some point even the mad scientists were taken over by their super-inventions.Does this sound familiar? You have probably read something like it in magazines or books, or seen it in a film. Why is it so popular? One of the reasons is that it reflects the fears of many people; fear of the unknown, fear of what is not understood or, at least, fear of something that is not completely understood.The fact is that every day it seems that computers take control of another area of our lives. Some factory jobs are now done by robots and the robots are controlled by computers. Our bank accounts are managed by computers. At the airport, our tickets are sold by a computer. Certainly, many of these operations are made more efficient by computers, but our admiration is sometimes mixed with unsafe feelings. And this lack of safety is caused by the fact that we do not know how computers do these things, and we really don’t know what they might do next.But we can find out how computers work, and once we understand them, we can use computers instead of worrying about being used by them. Today, there is a new generation of computer wizards (奇才) who know exactly how computers get things done. These young men and women, usually university students, are happy to sit for hours, sometimes for days, designing programs, not eating, not sleeping, but discovering what can be done by these wonderful slaves which they have learned to control. These computer wizards have learned to use the computer and search for new tasks for their machines.161. We can know that the scientists who designed the machines _____________.A. are careless in their daily lifeB. are unkind and cruelC. are out of their mindD. have great abilities162. The reason why many people are afraid of computers is that ____________.A. they don't know anything about computersB. they haven't really understood computersC. there are so many computer gamesD. computers are often down163. The author mentions computer wizards in order to point out that ____________.A. computers can be controlled by manB. there should be more people devoted to computersC. only young people are interested in computersD. more time and energy is required to control computers164. This passage is probably written to suggest that ____________.A. some day computers can deal with all human problemsB. computers can be used in place of traveling to our jobsC. people should not fear computersD. computer technology will not meet people’s needs in various situations165. The author's attitude (态度) towards widely used computers is_________.A. positiveB. anxiousC. worriedD. curiousPassage TwoKnowledge is power. But there is another thing we must remember. An intelligent mind needs a strong body to make it most useful.There are a great many good exercises for building up our bodies. Many of them may be done indoors in rainy weather. Indoor exercises, however, are never as helpful as those taken out of doors because in the open air there is more oxygen. The air in the house is not fresh. But out of doors it is very fresh, especially in the morning.But what shall we play? There are a number of games such as football, basketball, races and so on. Any game with plenty of exercises is good.Do not neglect your health. It is of as much importance as your mind. Our country now needs people with creative minds, good judgment, and healthy bodies.166. One who has an intelligent mind is ______ .A. very strongB. very healthyC. very cleverD. very stupid167. “An intelligent mind needs a strong body to make it useful.” means ______ .A. if you want to make your strong body useful, you must have an intelligent mindB. in order to make your intelligent mind useful, you must have a strong bodyC. to make your strong mind and strong body most useful you need a strong bodyD. if you have a strong body you will have a strong mind168. Which of the following statements is true?A. Indoor exercises are as helpful as outdoor ones.B. Indoor exercises are no more helpful than outdoor exercises.C. Neither indoor exercises nor outdoor exercises are helpful.D. Outdoor exercises are more helpful than indoor ones.169. The air in the house does not remain fresh very long. It’s because ______.A. the fresh air can’t come into the houseB. there is only a little fresh air coming in and a little waste going outC. the air in the house can’t move at allD. the house gives off wastes170. Our country now ______ with creative minds, good judgment and healthy bodies.A. needs men and womenB. only needs menC. only needs scientistsD. does not need women but menPassage ThreeSurvival is an art. Survivors are artists. The best acting is done in daily life, not on the stage. My late uncle Sir Alexander Korda, the motion-picture producer who could “charm money out of an empty safe”, was a gifted survivor.Once, a group of investors called him in to complain that he had lost 5 000 000 of their money. Most men would have tried to defend themselves. Alex did not. “You are right,” he said quietly, “I have been wasteful, and careless.I have chosen the wrong scripts, paid too little attention to the budgets. I am too old for this business. I will retire.I only hope you will forgive me.”。

Cloze Test (30 points, 1.5 for each)Directions:There are 15 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper(脾气) has _31 me with plenty of opportunities(机会) to make them. In one of my earliest 32 , my mother is telling me, ―Don‘t watch the33 when you say ?I‘m sorry‘. Hold yourhe ad up and look the person in the 34 , so he‘ll know you35 it.‖My mother thus made the key point of a(n) 36 apology: it must be direct. You must never 37 to be doing something else. You do not 38 a pile of letters while apologizing to a person 39 in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your 40 . You do not apologize to a hostess(女主人), whose guest of honor you treat 41 , by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad 42 .One of the important things you should do for an 43 apology is readiness to 44 the responsibility(责任) for our careless mistakes. We are used to making excuses, which leaves no 45 for the other person to 46 us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling 47 about themselves. That, after all, is the 48 of every apology. It 49 little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault: answering for one‘s50 encourages others to take their share of the blame.31．A．provided B．mixed C．compared D．treated 32．A．dreams B．courses C．memories D．ideas 33．A．side B．ground C．wall D．bottom 34．A．mind B．soul C．face D．eye 35．A．imagine B．enjoy C．mean D．regret 36．A．useful B．successful C．equal D．basic 37．A．pretend B．forget C．refuse D．expect 38．A．hold on B．put away C．look through D．pick up 39．A．poorer B．weaker C．worse D．lower 40．A．fault B．reason C．result D．duty 41．A．cruelly B．freely C．roughly D．foolishly 42．A．manners B．excuses C．efforts D．roles 43．A．active B．effective C．extra D．easy 44．A．raise B．perform C．admit D．bear 45．A．situation B．need C．sign D．room 46．A．advise B．forgive C．warn D．blame47．A．wiser B．warmer C．better D．cleverer48．A．purpose B．method C．end D．advantage49．A．cares B．matters C．depends D．remains50．A．facts B．states C．rights D．actionsIII.

The university is the city. You can find classroom buildings, libraries, museums and offices of the university all over the city. And most of its members are the students and teachers or professors of the thirty-one colleges.Cambridge was already a developing town long before the first students and teachers arrived 800 years ago. It grew up by the river Granta, as the Cam was once called. A bridge was built over the river as early as 875.In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries more and more land was used for college buildings. The town grew much faster in the nineteenth century after the opening of railway in 1845. Cambridge became a city in 1951 and now it has a population of over 100,000.

Community colleges have become popular and their enrollments have increased rapidly. Largeuniversities are offering more courses in the evenings for adult students. In this way, the demand for more education is being met. One reason for this is that many older people are changing their professions. They are looking for different careers. Another reason is that repair costs have increased. Adults are taking courses like plumbing and electrical repair. This way they hope that the high costs for repair can be avoided. Advanced technology is the most important reason for the rise in adult education. Engineers, teachers and businessmen are taking adult education classes. They have found that more education is needed to do their jobs well. Various courses are offered. Computers and business courses are taken by many adult students. Foreign languages, accounting and communication courses are also popular. Some students attend classes to earn degrees. Others take courses for the knowledge and skills that they can receive.

Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the works of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare‘ s writing that have become part of the common property of English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we use, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of HAMLET and complained that ―it was fullof well-known proverbs and quotations. ‖Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand. There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare‘s day.61. English people_______________.A. have never discussed who is the world‘s greatest poet and greatest dramatistB. never discuss about the world‘s greatest poets or dramatistsC. are sure who is the world‘s greatest poets and dramatist dramatistD. do not care who is the world‘s greatest poets and dramatist dramatist62. Every Englishman knows____________.A. More or less about ShakespeareB. Shakespeare, but only slightlyC. all the Shakespeare‘s writingsD. only the name of the greatest English writer63. Which of the following is TRUE?A. We use all the words, phrases and questions from Shakespeare‘s writings.B. Shakespeare‘s writings have become the prope rty ofthose who are learning to speak English.C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origin of the words they use.D. All the words people use are taken from Shakespeare‘s writings.64. ―HAMLET‖ is _____________A. a play written by ShakespeareB. a play recommended by ShakespeareC. a play appreciated by ShakespeareD. a play people have been complaining about65. It is worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English because______.A. English words have change d a lot since Shakespeare‘s timeB. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of English languageC. English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare‘s daysD. English words are now the same in various ways as in Shakespeare‘s da ysSection B Short Answer (15 points, 3 for each)Directions: Answer each of the following questions in less than 10 words.Sam and Joe were astronauts. There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced astronauts. Knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive. Sam and Joe, however, thought, it would be exciting though a little dangerous. ―We are the best men for the job, ‖ they said to the boss. ―There may be problems, but we can find the answers. ‖―They are the last people I‘d trust,‖ thought theboss. ―But all the other astronauts have refused to go. ‖Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs. When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again, no answer came. Then he hit the door as he could and finally a voice said, ―Who is there ?‖―It‘s me. Who else could it be?‖shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again.66. Why were most of the astronauts unwilling to go on a trip?They thought they ________________________________.67. Why were Sam and Joe chosen? They were the only men who ________________________.68.What did the two astronauts think the trip would be like? _______________________________.69. Joe didn‘t want to work with Sam again.

WritingChildren can‘t live happily and healthily without parents, because parents have done a lot during the growth of children. From the necessities such as three meals a day to school education at different levels, parents‘ love of and devotion to children are felt everywhere.As children have become grown up, they realize how much their parents have done for them and how important it is to repay their parents. Some work so hard to earn large sums of money to provide big houses for their parents. Others are always cooking delicious food or buying expensive clothes for them. Still others arrange for parents to go traveling both home and abroad and the like. Naturally all these would make their parents happy.However, as far as I am concerned, what parents need most is simply a call, a talk, or a dinner together. To tell you the truth, whenever I have spare time, I try to see them in person, have meals with them, talk with them and share with them my joys and sorrows, which offers them the greatest happiness. In a word, I think we should repay our parents with the deep love from the bottom of our hearts as they have done for us。

The air quality in some areas is not good. The air is polluted with soot. The officials worry that the air is harmful to the people who breathe the air. The officials are experts. They study the environment. They discuss ways to stop the air pollution. The panel decided to make some changes to the law.The new plan places strict limits on how much soot can be released into the air. Now, a measurement of 65 parts of soot is considered safe. The new plan would reduce that number to 30. The daily limit of pollution in the air would be cut in half.These new standards would affect industry. The limits would also affect people who own wood stoves and fireplaces. The county will keep track of the air quality every day. People would be required to stop burning wood when the levels are high. They could also install a kind of special fireplace. These fireplaces burn very little wood. They do not pollute the air as much. Some counties will punish families who violate the ban. They will have to pay a fine for not complying with the law.Some states do not have much industry. Their pollution problem is not too bad. They would still have to regulate how much pollution is released into the air. The experts hope that this ban will help keep the air cleaner.Before the plan becomes a law the public will have a chance to comment on it. Citizens will have ninety days to ask questions and voice concerns about the plan. Then it will become a law.5. The panel is made up of ______.A. scientistsB. homeownersC. citizensD. factory owners6.

Unfortunately for bird watchers, the grand phoenix lived only in the imaginations of the ancient Greeks and Egyptians.According to Greek mythology, only- one phoenix at a time lived on earth. The phoenix, a male, was brightly colored, with gold and red feathers. Legend has it that the single bird lived for exactly 500 years. Just before it was to die, it would build a nest, The mythical bird's last task was to sit patiently on the nest, waiting for the sun to start the dry twigs burning and set the nest ablaze. But as the proud phoenix sacrificed itself in flame, a tiny worm would crawl from beneath the ashes. This worm grew in to a new phoenix. Its first task was to gather up its father's ashes and bury them in the temple of the Egyptian sun god in Heliopolis, the City of the Sun. Each reborn phoenix lived out the remainder of its life in Arabia.Today, the phoenix symbolizes immortality. Also, someone who succeeds where he or she had previously failed is often referred to as a phoenix.9. This passage discusses an ancient ______.A. kingB. mythC. fairy taleD. god10.

The life of the phoenix is described ______.A. with the use of factsB. in a humorous wayC. in an unclear wayD. step-by-stepPassage FourThe frog is an amphibian, which means "double living" or both water and land living. That is, it is able to get oxygen from water at one stage in its life and from the air at another stage. Perhaps you have heard the term amphibian used for military vehicles which can travel on both land and water. Toads and salamanders, as well as frogs, are amphibians. In the development of animals over the world's history, amphibians were the first vertebrates to live at least part time on land.As a tadpole, the frog spends the beginning of its life living in the water. The tadpole breathes by means of tiny gills. When the lungs begin to develop, the gills disappear. By the time they are adults, all frogs have lungs for breathing while on land. In this way, the animal becomes essentially a land-adapted animal.In addition to having lungs, frogs and salamanders have a moist skin through which oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged. This moist skin is very important in the winter weather when amphibians hibernate in the mud at the bottom of ponds and lakes. They get what little oxygen they need through the skin.Like fish, amphibians are cold-blooded animals. This means that their body temperature rises and falls with that of their surroundings.13. This passage mainly talks about one of the amphibian, ______.A. salamanderB. toadC. tadpoleD. frog14. A land-adapted animal is one which has developed the ability ______.A. to live under groundB. to move swiftly both on land and in waterC. to breath and function when out of the waterD. to maintain a constant body temperature when on land15. In addition to breathing with its lungs, an adult frog has the ability to breathe through its ______.A. spoutB. gillsC. skinD. tongue16. Based on paragraph 4, we conclude that ______.A. frogs cannot move about in snowy conditionsB. frogs are cold-blooded animalsC. the body temperature of frogs rises during the winter timeD. the surroundings are too dangerous for frogs to remain on landPassage Five"No matter where you are or what time it is, there's something going on at a Hard Rock Care. All over the world our cafes not only serve great food, but they serve up great music. "The first Hard Rock Care (HRC) opened its doors to the public on June 14, 1971, in London.

Reading Comprehension (50points)Passage OneWhat makes a person famous? This is a mystery that many people have pondered. All kinds of myths surround the lives of well-known people.Most people are familiar with the works of William Shakespeare, one of the greatest English writers of the sixteenth century. Yet how many know Shakespeare the person, the man behind the works?After centuries of research, scholars are still trying to discover Shakespeare's personal history. It is not easily found in his writings. Authors of the time could not protect their works. An acting company, for example, could change a play if they wanted to. Nowadays writers have copyrights that protect their work.Many myths arose about Shakespeare. Some said he had no formal education. There are rumors that he left home when accused of stealing a horse. Others believe that he began his career by tending the horses of wealthy men.All of these myths are interesting, but are they true? Probably not. Shakespeare's father was a respected man in Stratford, a member of the town council, He sent young William to grammar school. Most people of Elizabethan times did not continue beyond grammar school; so, Shakespeare did have, at least, an average education.Some parts of Shakespeare's life will always remain unknown. The Great London Fire of 1666 burned many important documents that could have been a source of clues. We will always be left with many questions and few facts,1. This passage deals with ______.A. the Great London FireB. the lost documents of ShakespeareC. scholars of ShakespeareD. Shakespeare's personal history2. Parts of Shakespeare's life continue to remain a mystery because ______.A. people are not interestedB. researchers do not have the expertise to find the factsC. writers had no claim over their worksD. the Great London Fire burned important documents3. From this passage we can infer that Shakespeare ______.A. was a horse thiefB. had no educationC. is surrounded by mythsD. was popular in Stratford4. The first sentence arouses interest by presenting ______.A. a direct statementB. a questionC. an emotional appearD. a contrastPassage TwoThe people who run Yosemite National Park want to make some changes. They say there are too many cars in the park. Sometimes, no more people can fit into the park.The cars, trucks, and campers cause many problems. The cars make too much noise. People cannot hear each other talk. The best view of Yosemite Falls is from the parking lot.The new plan is to keep most cars out of the park. Some people come only for one day. They will have to leave their ears outside the park. They will have to ride buses into the park. Some people have reservations at hotels or campgrounds at Yosemite. They can bring in their cars, but they will have to leave them in the parking lot.The new plan will include removing some roads. It will include removing bridges over the river. It will include making new paths for hiking and biking.Floods last year hurt in the park in many ways. Congress wants the people who run Yosemite to fix up the park. But Congress does not want Yosemite like it was before the floods. They want it to be better.5. Some people make arrengements at ______ or campgrounds at Yosemite.A. hotelsB. restaurantsC. parking lotsD. apartments near the park6. People ______ might not like the changes.A. in CongressB. who like drivigC. who like cyclingD. who like camping7. How might the park be different after the changes?A. It will be more quiet.B. There will be less people.C. There will be no cars at all.D. Everybody will have to walk around the park.8. Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?A. Floods-Destroyed Park.B. Changes in the Park.C. Yosemite Car Ban.D. No Cars.Passage ThreeThere has been a boom in "karaoke" in Japan. Many people, no matter what their age or gender, go there often to enjoy singing out loud, to seek relief from daily stress or just for fun. The "kara" of kara-oke means "empty", while the "oke" is a Japanese abbreviation of the English word, "orchestra. " These two words coming together mean an orchestra without a singer. Karaoke systems are widespread in many countries nowadays. "Karaoke bars" are well known by Americans, but actually we have few karaoke bars in Japan. What we call "karaoke box" is more popular in Japan.To relish karaoke is not difficult at all. All you have to do is to find some friends to go with you. After you have settled into the room and gotten something to eat or drink, you are already to sing. You look up one of the songbooks and choose a song you wish to sing in two different ways: either by the singer's name or title of the song. Then enter the code numbers of the song into the remote control. Soon your music will start. Some karaoke sets even have a voice change system. You can change your voice from a woman's to a man's, or a man's to a woman's. This is very interesting. But the important thing here is you should listen to other people singing at the same time. Usually people like to have audiences, and you want them to listen to you while you are singing, too. You can feel like a real singer if you have someone to listen to you, and that's what people like when doing karaoke.Since you will have your own room and there will be no unfamiliar people watching you, you will feel more comfortable singing in a karaoke box than singing in front of many people, like in karaoke bars. You can spend the time in a more relaxed atmosphere, which is more enjoyable.Once you have experienced karaoke, you might want to go again and again, though some people would not like singing in front of people even if they were friends or family. But you can still have a lot of fun there, even if you don't sing. We make jokes and we talk as if we were at home. I personally like karaoke very much. I like singing and I have so much fun every time I go. I think we are seeking a way to express ourselves to people whom we like.9. In Japanese, the word "Karaoke" come from "kara" and "oke. " What do these words mean?A. Sing and together.B. Sing and have fun.C. Orchestra and singer.D. Empty and orchestra.10. What does the writer say is the important thing to do to enjoy Karaoke?A. Enter the code number.B. Choose many different types of music.C. Listen to others singing so everyone has an audience.D. Change your voice from a woman to a man or vice-versa.11. What is the advantage of a Japanese Karaoke box over a Karaoke bar?A. There are no unfamiliar people watching you so you won't feel nervous.B. It is more technologically advanced.C. The employees are friendlier.D. The food is better.12. How would you describe the writer's attitude toward Karaoke?A. She often goes, and likes it sometimes and sometimes not.B. She thinks it is not only fun, but stress relieving as well.C. She has not tried it herself so has no attitude about it.D. She feels it is a waste of time.Passage FourPoeple are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity.For example, my aunt, who has been living in Chicago for twenty-five years, has three children and they were all born in the States. The eighteen-year old daughter speaks English as a native language and she speaks Korean very well too. She has no problems talking with her parents, but she still doesn't understand Korean jokes, and there are sometimes misunderstandings. The second daughter is fourteen years old, and she doesn't want to speak Korean. My aunt often gets upset with her because she is very Americanized and they cannot understand each other. Even when my aunt punishes her, this daughter does not understand what my aunt is talking about. The third child is a twelve-year old son. He speaks English to his parents and my aunt speaks Korean to him as she does to the second daughter. He also has a problem communicating with his parents. My aunt is trying to teach him to speak both languages, but it is very hard for him because he speaks English all day and does not understand why he should learn to speak Korean.We must realize that language is important and valuable for many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is very important, not only for the harmony of the family, but also in helping the second generation establish their identity.13. What do you think this article is about?A. Learning a second language.B. Immigrants who become sick in the U. S.C. Schools attended by immigrants to the U. S.D. Language and its effect on the identity of immigrants.14. To whom does the mother speak Korean?A. Her oldest daughter only.B. Her two daughters only.C. All of her children.D. Only to her son.15. Why did the author's aunt try to teach her children to speak Korean?A. To help her improve her Korean language skills.B. To help them establish a Korean identity.C. To help them succeed in the U. S.D. To help them find a good job.16. Based on the passage, the phrase " your identity" means ______.A. your homeB. your dignityC. who you areD. where you are fromPassage Five1.

专升本（英语）模拟试卷100(题后含答案及解析) 题型有：1. 书本知识和实践经验哪一类更重要? 2．我的理由。
正确答案：Not Everything That Is Learned Is Contained in Books Would you want a doctor to operate on you who has only learned about operations from a textbook? Would you want a dentist to drill your tooth who has never before done so? The answer to these questions is obviously“no”．Knowledge gained from books must always be complemented by knowledge gained from actual experience，to be of real value．Of the two，the latter is certainly more important．The reasons are as follows：The first and most important reason is that knowledge from books is theoretical knowledge，while that gained from experience is applied knowledge．In any field of endeavor，actual experience is a must to fully understand how to do something，whether it be driving，teaching or cooking. The second reason why knowledge gained from experience is more important than book knowledge is that all new inventions and all creative endeavors do not come from books，but from experiments and experience．In other words，the knowledge contained in books is old knowledge．In conclusion，while knowledge gained from books is important，and can lay a basic foundation for learning，it is our actual experience which enables us to really learn how to do something，how to face and resolve the inevitable issues that come up which were not covered in the books．。

There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we cannot detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver, Similarly, we cannot sense radioactivity without a radio detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other things.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells in vital organs. But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hurt anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright, your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they re-produce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in a deformed way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years.This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the victim being aware at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or liable to serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.46. The author' s purpose in writing this passage is __________.A. to explain what nuclear power isB. to explain what nuclear radiation isC. to warn people of the danger of nuclearD. to list the bad points of nuclear power47.

Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can __________.A. kill large number of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediatelyB. damage cells which may grow into cancer years laterC. affect the healthy growth of the offspringD. all of the above50. We can infer from the passage that __________.A. the danger of nuclear radiation should not be emphasizedB. only nuclear radiation can cause cancerC. some people might have been hurt by nuclear radiation without their realizing itD. nuclear radiation can cause accidentsPassage 3Telephone, television, radio, and the Internet help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices (设备) , ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster (灾难) , such as a flood, can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. This is because modern technology information travels fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course, this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach America. This time difference influenced people's actions. For example, a few battles in the war of 1812 between England and the United States could have been avoided (避免). A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans (新奥尔良) was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty (条约) had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now. There was a good reason why the world seemed so much larger than it does today.51.

She had been the director of a school before she retired, but she needed to keep busy. She was even willing to work without pay. That was the reason she found a volunteer job with an agency. The agency that she chose to work for was a business that helped other businesses find jobs for old people. Every day she talked with other retired people like herself.

She told him to listen to young people's music and to watch the most popular television shows."It's important to know something about your grandchildren's world," says Mrs. Douglas. "But most of all, keep your mind open. Do not close out other people. Listen to the other people in your family. Keep on talking. And above all else, keep on listening and communicating.
