Unlike you, they also studied Greek and Latin. In fact, students spent more than half their time studying Greek and Latin.The same was true for most students in Europe. Until the seventh century, all educated Europeans knew Latin.It did notmatter if they lived in England or Italy or France orSpain.If they were educated, they knew Latin.During the seventh century, educated Europeans began to study Greek as well as Latin. Greek and Latin had been the leading languages of the ancient Greeks and Romans. All educated Europeans were expected to know these languages.To educated Europeans, the languages ofthe Greeks and the Romans were important. The ideas of the Greeks and Romanswere also important. People knew that many of their own ideas had come from the Greeks and the Romans. To understand their own culture, they must understand its origin.They knew that those beginnings lay in the classical world.Today we have so many things to study that few peoplehave time to learn Greek and Latin. Few of you will study either language in school. Yet the ideas of the Greeks andthe Romans are still important to us. These ideas still helpto shape Western culture today. To understand our own culture, we must understand the culture of the classical world.36. A good synonym for "origin" is__________.A. peopleB. futureC. beginningD. culture37. According to this passage, all educated Europeans of the seventh century were expected to study__________.A. physical science and chemistryB. Greek and LatinC. democracy and communismD. French and Spanish35. Today, most of people won't study either Greek or Latin because__________.A. they are no longer importantB. people do not have enough timeC. they are no longer existedD. people can not learn them well39. What can we conclude from this passage?A. Greeks and Romans significantly influenced European culture.B. The Greeks were the founders of democracy.C. The Greeks and Romans were bitter enemies.D. People of the classical world were barbaric and uneducated.Passage TwoWould you eat a bacon, lettuce and love apple sandwich? You probably have eaten many of them.Love apple was the name used many years ago for the tomato.The tomato is originally an American plant.It was foundin South America by early Spanish explorers. The word tomato comes from the native Nahuatl word tomatl. But when it moved north, the plant earned a different name. Remarkably, the settlers in North America thought it was poisonous.They believed that to eat it was surely to die. It wassaid that deserted suitors would threaten to eat a tomato to cause their coldhearted lovers regret. Because of this legend, the settlers called the tomato a"love apple. " While people enjoyed other native plants such as corn and sweet potatoes, everyone avoided the tomato.No one knows who first dared to eat a tomato. Perhaps someone was brave enough, or lovesick enough, to try out the truth of the rumors. Of course, whoever ate this fruit was perfectly safe. No one died from eating a love apple. Still,it was many years before the people fully believed that the tomato was a safe, and even good food. But its use did become common, and the plant was sent across the ocean to becomepart of many traditional European dishes.40. The language from which we derived the word tomato isA. PortugueseB.

What Happens to the BrokenheartedC. The History of the TomatoD. Vegetables in Our DietPassage ThreeNature has devised many ways to protect creatures'eyes.The most common protection is the eyelid--a fold of skin that closes over the eye, protecting it from damage.Eyelashes are useful for keeping out dust and other irritants, and tears wash away any particles that get through the other defenses.Some creatures, including most birds, have three eyelids.The upper and lower lids act like human lids and keep out twigs, dirt and sand. The third eyelid, however, is a semitransparent tissue that crosses over the eye from the inside corner to the outside corner.Because of thisprotective membrane, birds seldom have to blink. They close their eyes only when they go to sleep. In ducks,this third eyelid self as an underwater diving mask that helps the ducks find food.Most fish and snakes have no eyelids at all. Instead, a hard glassy covering protects their eyes. In fish, water constantly sweeps away dirt from the covering. And a snake's eyesight is usually so bad that a little dirt obscuring its vision does not disturb it greatly.Eyelashes defend the eye by shading it from glare. They also act like miniature brushes to remove dust. Camels have lashes that are four inches long to protect their eyes from windblown sand in the desert.44. A camel has long eyelashes__________.A. to keep windblown sand out of its eyesB. that get in the way of its sightC. to help it see betterD. to attract other camels45. The writer implies that eyelids are__________.A. not found on lizardsB. nice to look atC. always covered with eyelashesD. the most effective eye protection46. The author compares the duck's third eyelid toa__________.A. tissueB. glassy coveringC. tiny brushD. diving mask47. A good title for this passage would be__________.A. Look OutB. Birds' EyesC. Eyes in the NightD. Protecting the EyePassage FourAs part of an ongoing campaign against polyvinyl chloride (聚氯乙烯), a Virginia-based environmental advocacy group today called on manufacturers and retailers to phase out its use in shower curtains. The Center for Health, Environment and Justice ( CHEJ), released the results of a small study indicating that PVC (聚氯乙烯)-containing shower curtains are capable of emitting scores of potentially harmful materials, into people's bathrooms. A previous study, conducted by Environmental Protection Agency researchers, also found that plastic shower curtains can emit toxic compounds into the air.There's still debate among scientists about just how serious the health effects are especially at low doses. However, CHEJ urges consumers to avoid using PVC shower curtains, as well as many otherPVC products.For people who are concerned about their shower curtains, there are alternatives. IKEA phased out PVC shower curtains 11 years ago, switching to ethylene vinyl acetate(乙烯醋酸共聚物). The company has said that 88 percent of its shower curtains would be PVC free by spring of 2008.Manufacturers are not required to label shower curtains, but some do list" PVC" or" vinyl"on the packaging. Numerous online retailers, sell shower curtains--primarily cotton or hemp--that are free of PVC. However, mildew(发霉) can be a problem with cotton and hemp products.48. What did the study released by the Center for Health, Environment and Justice show?A. That PVC stands for polyvinyl chloride.B. Manufacturers are not required to label shower curtains.C. That most shower curtains sold at IKEA are made from PVC.D. That PVC shower curtains may release potentially harmful materials.49. What material are the shower curtains sold at IKEA made from?A. Ethylene vinyl acetate.B. Polyvinyl chloride.C. Cotton.D. PVC and EVA.50. What's the biggest problem with hemp and cotton shower curtains?A. They are see-through.B. They are too expensive.C. They may cause mildew.D. They emit harmful materials.51. Is it easy for consumers to tell that a showercurtain is made from PVC?A. Yes, that information is always on the shower curtain label.B. Not always, because shower curtains don't have to be labeled.C. Yes, but only if they're made by IKEA after 2008.D. No, because they only contain low doses of PVC.Passage FiveCompanies that employ illegal immigrants are to be named and shamed in a further attempt to crack down on people smuggling.The move by the Home Office comes four months after officials launched a concerted effort to identify and prosecute companies breaking the law.More than 200 companies have already been fined for hiring illegal labor. The HomeOffice says names of companies and directors are to be published on the UK Border Agency website. The agency will publish how many illegal immigrants the company was employing and how much it was fined.By May this year there had been 137 prosecutions under the new rules leading to fines totaling500,000--almost 3,000 per firm.The total number of prosecutions was 10 times more than were carried out in 2007, and double the total for the previous decade.Immigration chiefs are also switching their focus from small-time illegal employers,such as takeaway restaurants, in an effort to major organized criminal enterprises supplying illegal labor, often relying on international networks to smuggle people into the UK.Some 7,500 immigration officers will be re-organized into more localized teams with police and customs officials in an effort to better target what the Home Office says are illegal working hotspots.These could include areas of the economy where there is a high demand for labor including agriculture,construction and hospitality.Nobody knows how many people are working without permission in theUK--although estimates put the number of illegal residents at more than 500,000.Trade Union leaders have also raised concerns about the government's strategy, arguing that it could drive the worst employers further underground, penalizing exceptionally poor workers unable to break out of a situation they did not necessarily choose.52. What has happened in the first four months of the campaign to crack down on companies hiring illegal workers?A. Nothing. The campaign is still in its beginning stage.B.7,500 immigration officers will be re-organized into more localized teams.C.200 companies have been fined.D.3,000 small-time illegal employers have been cracked down.53. What steps will officials take to "shame" these companies?A. They will publish their names as well as the details of the offence online.B. They will shut down their business.C. They will inform the police about the illegal hiring.D. They will give poor workers working permission.54. Immigration officials are now focusing on__________.A. small-time illegal employersB. fining individual workersC. large-scale organized criminal operationsD. the government's strategy55. Trade Union officials fear that this new campaign (战役) might end up unjustly penalizing __________, by driving the employers further underground.A. employersB. workersC. illegal residentsD. companiesV.

For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Re member, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of th e supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61.

It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sandscrawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66.

成考高起点《英语》模拟试题及答案（2）2016年成考高起点《英语》模拟试题及答案Ⅳ. Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions:There are four 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 one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneIn the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the “Lusitania”, which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1,500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300,000 or more. The ship lying on the sea-bed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about $ 1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.61. Divers today try to bring to the surface _______.A. gold and jewelsB. parts of shipsC. whole shipsD. all of the above62. Diver try to bring up metals because ________.they have been in the sea for a long timegold and jewels are not valuable thingssome kinds of metals are worth a lot of moneyit is easy to bring up metals63. The word “surface” in the passage means th e ______.A. marketB. airC. top of a liquidD. sea64. John Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the parts of the “Lusitania” for about _____.A. $12,000B. $300,000C. $1,200,000D. $1,800,00065. John Light bought the “Lusitania” _______.A. before 1915B. before it sankC. after it sankD. after they had brought up the propellersPassage TwoMan’s first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it. The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature—no living thing was ever created with wheels. How, then, did man come to invent the wheel? Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the carcass of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected, at their centers by a string stick. This would roll along just as the logs did, yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being and with them the first carts.66. The wheel is important because _______.A. it was man’s first real invent ionB. all transportation depends on itC. every machine depends on itD. both B and C67. The wheel is called _______.A. simpleB. complicatedC. strangeD. unusual68. It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel because _______.A. it led to many other inventionsB. man had no use for it thenC. there were no wheels in natureD. all of the above69. The wheel was probably invented by ______.A. a group of early huntersB. the first men on earthC. a great prehistoric thinkerD. the man who made the first cart70. This selection says that the first wheel may have been a ______.A. round piece of stoneB. heavy logC. piece of metalD. slice of logPassage ThreeEating in space is different from eating on earth. The food that astronauts carry with them does not look like the food you eat. Some food is carried in closed bags. It is cooked and frozen before the astronauts get it. All the water is removed from the food. In the spaceship the astronaut puts the water back. He “shoots” hot or cold water into the food bag with a special gun. He eats the food through a small hole in the bag.Other foods come in bite sizes. The astronaut puts a whole piece in his mouth at once. There an be no crambs. Crambs would float around the spaceship and get in the way. Meat and cake often come in bite-sized pieces. Astronauts can’t drink waterfrom open cups. The water would float in drops in the air. The water is put in the special gun. The astronaut shoots the water into his mouth. Eating in space is not easy. Astronauts must learn to eat this way.71. Some space foods are carried in _______.A. water gunsB. lunch boxesC. closed bagsD. crumbs72. The story does not say this, but from what we have read, we can tell that ______.you get much hungrier in space than you doyou can’t have water to drink in a spaceshipastronauts must learn many new and different thingsyou can’t eat anything in a spaceship73. Why can’t astronauts drink water from cups?The water would come from the open cups.The water would spill all over their food.Crambs would float in the cups.The cups would float in the air.74. The main idea of the whole story is that _______.there is more food and water in space than on eartheating and drinking in space is a special problemastronauts can never eat or drink in a spaceshipthere is no food or water in a spaceship75. Which of the following does the story lead you to believe?Food for astronauts must be made in a special way.All meat on earth comes in bite-sized pieces.Astronauts will only eat cakes made from crambs.Astronauts have to go hungry in a spaceship.Passage FourThe energy which the sun radiates goes in every direction, and only a minute part of it falls on the earth. Even so, itrepresents power of about 5,000,000 horsepower (马力) per square mile per day; the sun gives us as much energy every miunte as mankind utilizes in a year. At present, we use this energy indirectly, and it is our final source of power. Coal represents the chemical action of the sun on green plants thousands of years ago. Water power results from the rain formed by vapor which comes from the evaporation of water under the sunshine. Even windmills operate because of air currents set in motion by the different heating affects of the sun in different places. Some day, through chemistry or some type of solar engine, we shall harness this great source of energy more directly. Already a scientist has worked out an engine, surprisingly efficient, in which the sun’s rays are concentrated through mirrors on a tube of water to create steam.76. How much energy given off by the sun reaches the earth?A. 100% but indirectly.B. 5%.C. 50%.D. only a very tiny amount.77. The reason why all the solar energy falling on the earth can’t be utilized is that ______.only a very small part is available the sun is too distant from the earthit takes thousands of years for this energy to be stored up in coal and oilour scientific knowledge is not sufficient78. Which of the following statements is NOT true?Even windmill’s action depends on the sun.The sun produces enormous energy for man to make use of.Some day man will be able to utilize 100% of the solar energy that gets to the earth.The sun produces different heating effects in different places.79. In order to support this argument, the writer gives the example that _______.a machine using solar energy efficiently has already been developedthe sun is our final source of powerman uses only a tiny part of the sun’s energythe part of the sun’s energy we use is used indirectly80. This passage centers mainly on ________.harnessing energy through chemistryour last source of powerhow water power is producedthe amount of solar energy that can be utilizedⅤ.

WritingShould Men and Women Be Equal?People have different ideas about this issue, Some people say that men are superior to women in ability because men are physically stronger, do most of the hard labor in the world and hold most important positions. Other people believe that women have the ability to compete with men. There have been many famous women state leaders and great scientists in the world. We should fully carry out the principle “to each according to his work” so that the enthusiasm of both men and women for work can be fully aroused.。

But scientists and technicians have been making them smaller and cheaper while at the same time they have been made easier to use. As a result, their popularity has beenincreasing as more people have been buying computers for their homes and businesses.Computers have been designed to store information and compute problems that are difficult for human beings to work out.

Offices use computers to copy letters, record business and keep in touch with other offices. People have been using computers in their homes to keep track of the money they spend.One important new use for computers is for entertainment.

He was glad and stared at it for some time, then wrote “105”on the corner of the trademark with a pencil, meaning he had already drunk 105 bottles of the famous wine. Two days later a stranger came. He offered to pay 5 yuan for the empty Mao Tai bottle. Mr. Chen was pleased and sold it. Several weeks later, his second son brought him another bottle of Mao Tai. While examining and enjoying it, he was suddenly terrified—he found “105”—the very mark on it.71.

According to the story, who do you say learned a lesson?A. The strangerB. Mr. ChenC. His neighbourD. Mr. Chen’s eldest sonPassage FourDo you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it is painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues (自言自语) as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗) your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll get up steam (鼓起干劲) and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get with a leisurely yawl and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the trouble some search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. When ever possible, do routine work inthe afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.76. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably_______.he is a lazy personhe refuses to follow his own energy cyclehe is not sure when his energy is lowhe is at his peak in the afternoon or evening77. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?A. Unawareness of energy cycles.B. Familiar monologues.C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family member.78. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should _____.A. change his energy cycle C. get up earlier than usualB. overcome his laziness D. go to bed earlier79. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.help to keep your energy for the day’s workhelp you to control your temper early in the dayenable you to concentrate on your routine workkeep your energy cycle under control all day80. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.Children have energy cycles, too.参考答案Ⅰ.
