For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneOn June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they could now read the whole “map” of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things named “genes” in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word”means, we can help save more people from several illnesses.Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people。

"He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop, "How much will you give me for these?" The man looked at them and then said: "Two dollars.""What !" said Tom. "I had guessed they were worth at least five dollars.""No," said the man, "they aren't worth a cent more than two dollars.""Well," said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket. "Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价)of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth."Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say.1.

2024五年制师范类专转本英语模拟试卷English:1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using technology in the classroom?The use of technology in the classroom has both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, technology can enhance the learning process by providing students with access to more diverse and up-to-date information. It can also make the learning experience more engaging and interactive, as students can use multimedia tools to explore concepts in depth and collaborate with their peers. Additionally, technology can help improve the efficiency of teachers by enabling them to manage and assess student performance more easily.On the other hand, technology can be a distraction for students, leading to a decrease in their attention span and overall performance. Moreover, technology can promote a passive learning environment where students rely on the internet and other resources rather thanactively participating in the learning process. Additionally, not all students have equal access to technology, which can lead to further disparities in learning outcomes between students from different socioeconomic backgrounds.In conclusion, while technology can provide many benefits in the classroom, it is essential to balance its use with traditional teaching methods and ensure that all students have equal access to these resources.中文翻译:在课堂上利用技术有其优势和缺点。

Part I Reading Comprehension(30 points)Passage OneThere is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and procedures for implementing the finding of science.Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy and certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe polluted air; and we do not have the option of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science progress, technology must be measured in terms of the human factor. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve people in general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves. Technology must be humanistic if it is to lead to a better world.1. The difference between science and technology lies in that _____.A) the former provides answers to theoretical questions while the latter to practical problemsB) the former seeks to comprehend the universe while the latter helps change the material worldC) the former aims to discover the inter-connections of facts and the rules that explain them while the latter, to discover new designs and ways of making the things we use in our daily lifeD) all of the above2. Which of the following may be representative of science?A) The improvement of people's life. B) The theory of people's life.C) Farming tools. D) Mass production.3. According to the author, scientific theories _____.A) must be strictly objective B) usually take into consideration people's likes and dislikesC) should conform to popular opinions D) always appear in perfect and finished forms4. The author states that technology itself _____.A) is responsible for widespread pollution and resource exhaustionB) should serve those who wish to gain advantage for themselvesC) will lead to a better world if put to wise useD) will inevitably be for bad purpose5. The tone of the author in this passage is _____.A) positive B) negative C) factual D) criticalPassage TwoAmericans have always been ambivalent in their attitudes toward education. On the one hand, free and universal public education was seen as necessary in a democracy, for how else wouldcitizens learn how to govern themselves in a responsible way? On the other hand, America was always a country that offered financial opportunities for which education was not needed: on the road from rags to riches, schooling-beyond the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic-was an unnecessary detour.Even today, it is still possible for people to achieve financial success without much education, but the number of situations in which this is possible is decreasing. In today's more complex world, the opportunities for financial success is closely related to the need for education, especially higher education.Our society is rapidly becoming one whose chief product is information, and dealing with this information requires more and more specialized education. In other words, we grow up learning more and more about fewer and fewer subjects.In the future, this trend is likely to continue. Tomorrow's world will be even more complex than today's world, and, to manage this complexity, even more specialized education will be needed.6. The topic treated in this passage is _____.A) education in general B) Americans' attitudes C) higher education D) American education7. Americans' attitudes toward education have always been _____.A) certain B) contradictory C) ambitious D) unclear8. Today, financial success is closely related to the need for _____.A) higher education B) public education C) responsible citizens D) learning the basics9. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _____.A) information is our only product B) education in the future will be specializedC) we are entering an age of information D) we are living in an age of information10. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) The History of American Education. B) The Need for Specialized Education.C) The Future of the American Educational System. D) Attitudes toward American Education.Passage ThreeA growing world population and the discoveries of science may alter this pattern of distribution in the future. As men slowly learn to master diseases, control floods, prevent famines, and stop wars, fewer people die every year; and in consequence the population of the world is steadily increasing. In 1925 there were about 2,000 million people in the world; by the end of the century there may well be over 4,000 million.When numbers rise the extra mouths must be fed. New lands must be brought under cultivation, or land already farmed made to yield larger crops. In some areas the accessible land is so intensively cultivated that it will be difficult to make it provide more food. In some areas the population is so dense that the land is parceled out in units too tiny to allow for much improvement in farming methods. Were a large part of this farming population drawn off into industrial occupations, the land might be farmed much more productively by modern methods. There is now a race for science, technology, and industry to keep the output of food rising faster than the number of people to be fed. New strains of crops are being developed which will thrive in unfavorable climates: there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia and North America; irrigation and dry-farming methods bring arid lands under the plough, dams hold back the waters of great rivers to ensure water for the fields in all seasons and to provide electric power for new industries; industrial chemistry provides fertilizers to suit particular soils; aeroplanes spray cropsto destroy locusts and many plant diseases. Every year some new means is devised to increase or to protect the food of the world.11. The author says that the world population is growing because _____.A) there are many rich valleys and fertile plains B) the pattern of distribution is being alteredC) people are living longer D) new land is being brought under cultivation12. The author says that in densely populated areas the land might be more productively farmed if _____.A) the plots were subdividedB) a large part of the people moved to a different part of the countryC) industrial methods were used in farmingD) the units of land were made much larger13. We are told that there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle. This has been made possible by _____.A) producing new strains of crops B) irrigation and dry-farming methodsC) providing fertilizers D) destroying pests and disease14. Which of these words is nearest in meaning to the word "strains"?A) types B) sizes C) seeds D) harvests15. The author's main purpose is to _____.A) argue for a belief B) describe a phenomenon C) entertain D) propose a conclusion Part II Vocabulary and Structure (15 points)1.

Part I Reading Comprehension (共20题,每小题2分,共40分)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Life is difficult.But life is no longer difficult once we truly understand and accept it.Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that their difficulties represent a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems depending on their nature cause in us sadness or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet, it is in this whole of solving problems that life has its meaning.Problems are the serious test that tells success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of the human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, “Those things that hurt, instruct." It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.1 From the passage, it can be inferred that .A. not everybody has problemsB. we become stronger by facing and solving the problems of lifeC. life is difficult because our problems bring us painD. people like to complain about their problems2. The writer probably uses just one short sentence in the first paragraph toA. save spaceB. persuade readersC. make readers laughD. get readers' attention3. The main idea of paragraph 3 is .A. most people feel life is easyB. the writer feels life is easyC. the writer likes to complain about his problemsD. most people complain about how hard their lives are4. According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to .A. encourage them to learnB. teach them to fear the pain of solving problemsC. help them learn to deal with painD. teach them how to respect for problems5. The saying from Benjamin Franklin“Those things that hurt, instruct.”suggests that .A. we do not learn from experienceB. we do not learn when we are in painC. pain teaches us important lessonsD. pain cannot be avoidedPassage 2Harvard University is on the both sides of the Charies River. The oldest institution of higher learning in the United States was founded in 1636. In 1638 it was named for John Harvard, its first founder. During the 1640s the college was enlarged although it was short of money. Meant to be an institution for the education of Puritan ministers (清教牧师), it grew to be an institution of general education, and new and more subjects and policies were introduced. In the 18th century, particularly under John Leverett, the number of the students and campus equipment increased while the religious color decreased. In its early years, the college was largely supported by the English colony and the New England community as a whole, but support soon came in the form of gifts, and in 1823 the state money was received for the last time. Under Charles W.Eliot, the college became a great modern university. Its basic courses improved and enlarged, the graduate school was set up for those who finished their four-year undergraduate study, and the law and medical school were reorganized. Eliot is also famous for his introduction of the elective system at Harvard. Besides Harvard College, the university includes schools of divinity (1816), law (1817), arts and science (1872), education (1920), engineering (1935), reorganization of Lawrence Science School of 1847, public administration (1935). Harvard also has schools of business administration (1908), medicine (1782), public health (1922), and dental health (1941). Radcliffe College for women is connected with Harvard; its students are taught by Harvard professors and receive diplomas given by Harvard. The university library, among the nation's finest, houses over 8 million volumes, and the Fogg Museum of Art is one of the finest university museums in the world. Harvard is closely connected with a large number of research institutions as well.6. Harvard University .A. has a history of more than 450 yearsB. was enlarged in the middle of the 17th centuryC. was first meant to be an institution for general education since its foundationD. was founded by John Leverett7. One of John Leverett's greatest contributions to Harvard University is most probably that .A. he set up Harvard UniversityB. he freed Harvard University from the support of the stateC. he made Harvard a Puritan universityD. he helped develop general education in Harvard University8. Which of the following statements might NOT be true about Charles W.Eliot?A. Under his leadership, Harvard University became a modern university.B. He introduced the elective system at Harvard University.C. He improved and enlarged Harvard University, making it a modern university.D. He tried hard to reduce the religious colour of Harvard University.9. Based on the passage, between 1816 and 1941 Harvard .A. had at least 10 more schools added up to itB. founded Lawrence Science SchoolC. went through a period of slow progressD. reorganized Harvard College10. Which of the following statements is true about Harvard University according to the passage?A. Harvard is a large and modern university with a long history.B. Harvard has the world's finest library with its 8 million of books.C. Harvard University has the nation's best art museum.D. Radcliffe College for men is one of the schools of Harvard University.Passage 3The Certificates in English Languages Skills (CELS) are a set of modular tests that allow you to test in one or more of the four languages skills, or combine tests at different levels.T ests are available at three levels: CELS Higher, CELS Vantage and CELS Preliminary.So, if, for example, you are particularly good at reading but have difficulty in speaking English, you could take a CELS Higher test in Reading, CELS Vantage tests in Listening and Writing, and, for speaking, a CELS Preliminary test. Or you could decide not to take a speaking test at all.Those are linked to other Cambridge ESOL examination levels, such as the First Certificate in English. CELS is also accredited as part of the UK National Qualifications Framework.For more information on these, you can download a copy of the CELS Handbook from Cambridge Esol Chinese website at www. cambridgeesolchina. com. cn You can also visit www. alte. org for an overview of the “Can Do" statements, which specify what you are expected to be able to do at each levels.11.

This passage is .A. written for all language learnersB. an advertisementC. a storyD. a careful introduction to CELSPassage 4The producers of instant coffee found their product strongly resisted in the market places despite their manifest advantages. Furthermore, the advertising expenditure for instant coffee was far greater than that for regular coffee. Efforts were made to find the cause of the consumers “seemingly unreasonable resistance to the product”. The reason given by most people wasdislike for the taste. The producers suspected that there might be deeper reasons. However, this was confirmed by one of motivation research's classic studies, one often cited in the trade. Mason Haire, professor of the University of California, constructed two shopping lists that were identical except for one item. There were six items common to both lists:. hamburger, carrots, baking powder, bread, canned peaches and potatoes, with the bands or amounts specified, which were identical except for one item. The seventh item, in the fifth place on both lists, read “1 Ib. Maxwell House coffee”on one list and “Nescafe instant coffee”on the other. One list was given to each person in a group of fifty women, and the other list to those in another group of the same size. The women were asked to study their lists and then to describe, as far as they could, the kind of woman (“personality and character”) who would draw up that shopping list. Nearly half of those who had received the list including instant coffee described a housewife who was lazy and a poor planner. On the other hand, only one woman in the other group described the housewife, who had included regular coffee on her list, as lazy; only six of that group suggested that she was a poor planner. Eight women felt that the instant-coffee user was probably not a good wife. No one in the other group drew such a conclusion about the housewife who intended to buy instant coffee.16. The fact that producers found resistance to their product despite the fact that they spent moreadvertising money on instant than regular coffee shows that .A. advertising does not assure favorable sales resultsB. companies spent more money on advertising than they shouldC. people pay little attention to advertisingD. the more one advertises, the better they sales picture17. In this instance, the purpose of motivation research was to discover .A. why people drink coffeeB. why instant coffee was successfulC. why regular coffee was successfulD. the real reason why people would not buy instant coffee18. This investigation indicates that .A. 50 percent of housewives are lazyB. housewives who use instant coffee are lazyC. many women believe that wives who use instant coffee are lazyD. wives who use regular coffee are good planners19. On the results of this test, the producers probably revised their advertising to show a .A. lazy housewife using regular coffeeB. hard-working housewife using instant coffeeC. lazy housewife using instant coffeeD. man obviously enjoying the taste of instant coffee20. Which statement is implied but not stated: .A. Despite its advantages, most people dislike instant coffee because of its taste.B. The advertising expenditure for instant coffee was greater than for regular coffee.C. Very often we do not know the real reasons for doing thing.D. T aste is the principal factor in determining what we buy.Part II. Vocabulary and Structure (共40题,每小题1分,共40分)21.

Cassatt, a leading banker of Philadelphia, shouted when his twenty-year-old eldest daughter announced that she wanted to become an artist. In the 19th century, playing at drawing or painting on dishes was all right for a young lady, but serious work in art was not. And when the young lady’s family racked among (挤身于) the best of Philadelphia’s social (社会各界的) families, such an idea could not even be considered.That was how Mary Cassatt, born 1844, began her struggle as an artist. She did not tremble before her father’s anger, she opposed him with courage and at last made him change his mind. Mary Cassatt gave up her social position and all thoughts of a thousand and a family, which in those times was unthinkable for a young lady. In the end, after long years of hard work and perseverance (坚持), she became America’s most important woman artist and the internationally recognized leading woman painter of the time.11. How did Mr. Cassatt react when his daughter made her announcement?A. He feared for her life.B. He was very angry.C. He nearly killed her.D. He warned her.12.

He did not believe his daughter wanted to work seriously in art.C. He believed an artist’s life would be too hard for his daughter.D. Ladies of good families simply did not become artists in those times.13. What made Mary Cassatt’s “struggle” to become a recognized artist especially hard?A. She was a womanB. Her father opposed her.C. She had no social position.D. She didn’t come from an artist’s family.14. What do we know about Mary Cassatt’s marriage?A. Her marriage failed because she never gave a thought to her husband and family.B. She never married because she did not want to be just a wife and mother.C. After marriage she decided to give up her husband rather than her career.D. She did not marry because for a lady of her social position to marry below her was unthinkable.15.

2023年江苏五专转本英语统考真题

江苏省2023年五年一贯制高职“专转本”考试英语统考试卷(90分钟)I. Reading ComprehensionPassage OneThe TV play Zheng He is broadcasted on CCTV and the great Chinese traveler comes gradually back to us. It reminds us of a lot of excitement.Zheng He, the Columbus of the east, was an amazing man. He was born in 1371 and, 11 years later, was caught by the army of a rich young man called Zhu Di and made to word for him. Over time the rich man saw that Zheng He was very clever and strong and they became close friends. In 1403, Zhu Di was made the king of China and asked Zheng He to join his new government.The King wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power. He ordered many new ships to be built and made Zheng He the leader. Between 1405 and 1433, he led seven sea ships to different parts of the world. He certainly traveled to India, Africa and the Middle East. Some people insist that his ships may have even reached South Africa and Australia.Each trip lasted between two and four years and it is believed he sailed more than 50,000 kilometers during his travels. With 28,000 men and over 300 ships, such as boats for food, water and even soldiers’ horses, Zheng He led a fleet whose size would not be equaled by Europeans for over 500 years.On these trips, he brought with him many Chinese goods like silk and medicine to give to the foreign kings or to sell for local goods. He returned from each trip with boats filled with expensive things such as gold and jewellery, foreign guests and strange animals like a giraffe.It is a pity that we may never learn everything about Zheng He’s travels. After he died in 1433, the new king, who thought these trips were unlucky and cost too much, had them stopped and he burned almost all the books a bout Zheng He’s travels. It is only in the last 50 years, that historians have carefully studied the adventures of the great Zheng He.1. Why did the Chinese King order Zheng He to sail to many different countries?A. To bring new countries under the control of China.B. To show the world his power.C. To receive gifts from the kings of other countries.D. To discover unusual animals.2. What do we know about Zheng He from the passage?A. He sailed across the world.B. Each of the trips lasted one year.C. He died at the age of 62.D. He was a successful soldier.3. Which of the following did Zheng He bring with him from China?A. GoldB. JewelleryC. MedicineD. Giraffes4. What happened after Zheng He died?A. He was forgotten forever.B. His ships were all destroyed.C. The new king wrote a book about himD. Sea trips to foreign countries were stopped.5. In what order did the following happen?a. Zhu Di become the King.b. Zheng He was caught by soldiers.c. The books about Zheng He were all burned.d. Foreigners were invited to China.e. Zheng He visited India.f. New ships were built.A. e-b-a-f-d-cB. b-a-e-d-c-fC. f-a-b-d-c-eD. b-a-f-e-d-cPassage TwoWhen John was growing up, other kids feel sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the rubbish and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “Boys who worked in the home or co mmunity gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,” said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery, “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”Vaillant’s study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men’s mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores. Scores were given to such things as part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.The link between what the men had down as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working –at any age –is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence – the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.”6. What do we know about John?A. He enjoyed his career and marriage.B. He had few childhood playmates.C. He received little love from his family.D. He was envied by others in his childhood.7. Vaillant’s words in Paragraph 2 serve as __________.A. a description of personal values and social valuesB. an analysis of how work was related to competenceC. an example for parents’ expectations of their childrenD. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men8. Vaillant’s team obtained their fin dings by __________.A. recording the boys’ effort in schoolB. evaluating the men’s mental healthC. comparing different sets of scoresD. measuring the men’s problem-solving ability9. What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4?A. quick to reactB. having a thin edgeC. clear and definiteD. sudden and rapid10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Competent adults know more about love than work.B. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.D. Independence is the key to one’s success.Passage ThreeAlthough some traditional meals in Britain, like roast beef and pudding or fish and chips, remain popular, there had been a significant change in eating habits among the population over the last ten years or so. The increase in the consumption of rice and pasts may be partly responsible for the decline (下降) in that of potatoes. The consumption of meat – with the exception of that of poultry (禽类) which is now at a record level – has also fallen. Skimmed milk now constitutes more than half of the total household consumption of liquid milk. There has been a decline in the total consumption of cooking and spreading fats, with large falls in butter usage. Instead, the consumption of vegetable and salad oils and reduced fat spreads increase rapidly. A switch in fish consumptionaway from fresh white fish towards canned fish and shellfish has been evident. There has been a small increase in the intake (摄入) of fibre (纤维).Britain has many restaurants, offering cuisine from almost every country. Chinese, Italian and Greek food style restaurants are among the most popular.11. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The increase in the consumption of British traditional foodB. The popularity of traditional food in BritainC. The change of eating habits in BritainD. The popularity of foreign restaurants in Britain12. What causes the fall in the consumption of potatoes?A.

This is because many countries have wonderful teams for the World Cup. The World Cup is held every four years.To remember 2002 FIFA World Cup, children from different countries and more than 60 children from Japanese schools came together and spent three weekends drawing a big picture called “Dream(梦幻) World Cups” in Japan. The children drew animals, flowers and people playing soccer under a blue bright sky. They wished each football team good luck by drawing the flags(旗帜) of all the countries that will take part in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. The picture was put up in a park near a playground in Yokohama. Some football teams will have games there.Are you a football fan (迷)? The World Cup makes more and more people interested in football Teenagers (青少年) like playing and watching football.

Many teenagers owe the pictures of some football stars because .A. they are interested in footballB. they are football fansC. they think their favourite players are greatD. all of A, B and CPassage TwoFor years and years people have been saying that the rail ways are dead. ―We can do without railways‖, people say as if motorcars and planes have made the railways unnecessary. We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, that they’re dying. But this is far from the truth. In these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place. They are cheaper than planes. And they have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. What is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. It doesn’t leave you as a plane does, miles and miles from the city center. It doesn’t hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams. And a single train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do.Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive, Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning. For we have just entered the age of superfast trains(超速列车), trains traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorways we can‘t use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we can’t fly in for the same reason.6. Some people think the railways are unnecessary for many reasons except that .A. planes and motorcars have taken the place of trainsB. oil is expensive todayC. trains are slowD. railways lose money7. The writer’s idea seems to be that .A. we can do without railwaysB. trains have much in common with motorcars and planesC. motorcars and planes are not as good as trainsD. trains are as good as motorcars and planes8. According to the writer, which of the following is not true?A. It is cheaper to travel by train than by plane.B. The railway station is usually at the center of a city.C. When you get off the plane you’ll find yourself right in he city center.D. No motorcar or plane can carry as many goods as a train does.9. The writer thinks that the railways, far from being dad, are very much alive because .A. we can have a smooth and untroubled journeyB. we’ll not have enough money to fly in planesC. we can now travel in super-fast trainsD. all of the above10. The best title for this passage may be .A. Not the End , but the BeginningB. Which is the Best: Train, Motorcar or PlaneC. Trains Are More Competitive than Motorcars or PlanesD. Oh, Super-fast TrainsPassage ThreeThere has been, in history, a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived to tell the tale. The man's name is James Bartley.The records to prove his unusual experience are in the British Admiralty.Bartley was making his first trip on the whaling ship Star of the East. Suddenly the lookout found a huge whale. The whalers knew it was a huge whale by the size of the spray it blew into the air. They lowered their small boats. James Bartley was in the first longboat . The men rowed until they were close to the whale. A harpoon(鱼叉) was thrown and it found its mark. It sank into the whale' s flesh. The maddened beast jumped out of the water and broke the boat into pieces. When the survivors were picked up, James Bartley was missing.Shortly before sunset, the whale was finally caught. The sailors tied the whale's carcass to theside of the ship.Because of the hot weather it was important that they cut up the whale right away. Otherwise, the meat would begin to rot and the oil would begin to spoil. When they got to the stomach, they felt something moving about wildly. They thought it would be a big fish still alive inside. But when they opened the stomach they found James Bartley. After this trip, Bartley settled in Gloucester, England, and never returned to sea.11. This passage is mainly about .A. how to hunt whales for their oil and meat.B. the hard and dangerous lives that whalers had to live.C. the duties of each man on a whaling ship.D. a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived.12. The sailors knew that something was in the whale's stomach because .A. they could feel it moving about wildly.B. the whale seemed very heavy .C. the whale was bulging (鼓起来) at one spot.D. the captain heard Bartley crying for help.13. James Bartley never went to sea again because .A. he wanted different kinds of adventuresB. of fright and shock.C. he was hurt by the whale.D. he often got seasick.14.The author, in telling James Bartley's story, gives us information by .A. making us laughB. talking about whaling in general.C. comparing whaling to other fishing.D. dramatically telling what happened.15.The word carcass refers to the .A. whale's tail.B. whale's stomach.C. dead body of the whale.D. whale's side.II.

五年制高职专转本英语考试模拟卷1

五年制高职专转本英语考试模拟卷(考试时间:90分钟)I. Reading Comprehension (本题共15小题,每题2分,共30分)Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneIn every school there is “top” crowd that sets the pace, while the others follow their lead. For example, if the crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters, then very soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters.There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that for some people bright red sweater is really unsuitable.The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink and to drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then the people who follow the lead are endangering their lives. They are like the sheep being led to the slaughter(屠杀).Now it’s possible that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact you probably did something you knew to be wrong one time or another. You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No”.Develop your own standards(标准)and your own judgment. If you know the crowd is planning something you disagree to, you’d better take the courage to bow out in a polite way. You’ll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet.1. The main idea of the passage is that _____________.A. in every sc hool there is a “top” crowd that sets the paceB. it’s a mistake to follow the “top” crowd blindlyC. people who follow the “top” crowd are endangering their livesD. you probably did something wrong more than once in your life2. The author(作者)doesn’t thi nk it good wearing red sweaters if _______.A. the crowd is wearing themB. you can't afford themC. you don't look good in redD. it is against school rules3. The writer encourages the readers to ___________.A. respect his or her parentsB. find excuses when he or she is wrongC. learn to stand on their own two feetD. take the advice of his or her elders4. What does the underlined phrase “bow out” in the passage probably mean?A. 鞠躬B. 退出C. 参与D. 应允5. The best title for this passage is __________.A. Follow the LeaderB. The “Top” CrowdC. Being YourselfD. Rules for TeensPassage Two"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(吃力地喘着气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby had been born without ears. Luckily, time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. Though the misfortune(不幸)happened to him, he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he felt ashamed when he communicated with others.“You should get in touch with other young people,” his mother told him, with a kindness in her heart. The boy’s father talked with the family doctor about his ears. “Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of outer ears, if they could be got,” the doctor replied.Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You are going to the hospital, Son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need, but it’s a secret.”The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交的)service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.”“You could, my son,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.”The years kept their secret, but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly, the father stretched forth(伸出) a hand and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears."Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut," his father whispered gently, "and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful, did they?"6. Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?A. Because her son had a tiny face.B. Because she saw her son crying.C. Because her son was in her arms.D. Because her son was born imperfect.7. Who gave the son the ears?A. His mother.B. His father.C. A doctor.D. A stranger.8. The underlined word “reveal” in the last but one paragraph means “________”.A. seeB. showC. findD. search9. The best title for the passage would be ________.A. Mother’s hairB. An unforgettable memoryC. Who gave me the ears?D. Who is my best respectable person?10. The main purpose of the passage is to tell readers that ________.A. The secret was kept until the mother died.B. Real love lies in what is done but not known.C. The operation on the boy was a great success.D. The boy entered the diplomatic service when he grew up.Passage ThreeTo us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun!Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France, and later on in England.By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.11. According to this passage, the umbrella was probably first invented ________.A. in ancient ChinaB. in ancient EgyptC. in ancient GreeceD. in ancient Rome12. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the umbrella?A. No one exactly knows who the inventor of the umbrella was.B. The umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sun.C. The umbrella changed much in style in the eighteenth century.D. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella.13. A strange feature of the umbrella’s use is that it was used as ________.A. protection against rainB. a shade against the sunC. a symbol of honor and powerD. women’s decoration14. In Europe, the umbrella was first used against the rain ________.A. during the Middle AgesB. by the eighteenth centuryC. in RomeD. in Greece15. This passage talks mainly about ________.A. when and how the umbrella was inventedB. why the umbrella was so popular in EuropeC. the development of the umbrellaD. the history and use of the umbrellaII.

五年制专转本模拟试题

五年制专转本模拟试题

Part I Reading Comprehension(30 points)Passage OneThere is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method of answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships between observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to organize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and procedures for implementing the finding of science.Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comprehend the universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy and certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or dislikes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover may shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of refusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the sonic boom produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead; we do not have the option of refusing to breathe polluted air; and we do not have the option of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science progress, technology must be measured in terms of the human factor. The legitimate purpose of technology is to serve people in general, not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves. Technology must be humanistic if it is to lead to a better world.1. The difference between science and technology lies in that _____.A) the former provides answers to theoretical questions while the latter to practical problemsB) the former seeks to comprehend the universe while the latter helps change the material worldC) the former aims to discover the inter-connections of facts and the rules that explain them while the latter, to discover new designs and ways of making the things we use in our daily lifeD) all of the above2. Which of the following may be representative of science?A) The improvement of people's life. B) The theory of people's life.C) Farming tools. D) Mass production.3. According to the author, scientific theories _____.A) must be strictly objective B) usually take into consideration people's likes and dislikesC) should conform to popular opinions D) always appear in perfect and finished forms4. The author states that technology itself _____.A) is responsible for widespread pollution and resource exhaustionB) should serve those who wish to gain advantage for themselvesC) will lead to a better world if put to wise useD) will inevitably be for bad purpose5. The tone of the author in this passage is _____.A) positive B) negative C) factual D) criticalPassage TwoAmericans have always been ambivalent in their attitudes toward education. On the one hand, free and universal public education was seen as necessary in a democracy, for how else wouldcitizens learn how to govern themselves in a responsible way? On the other hand, America was always a country that offered financial opportunities for which education was not needed: on the road from rags to riches, schooling-beyond the basics of reading, writing, and arithmetic-was an unnecessary detour.Even today, it is still possible for people to achieve financial success without much education, but the number of situations in which this is possible is decreasing. In today's more complex world, the opportunities for financial success is closely related to the need for education, especially higher education.Our society is rapidly becoming one whose chief product is information, and dealing with this information requires more and more specialized education. In other words, we grow up learning more and more about fewer and fewer subjects.In the future, this trend is likely to continue. Tomorrow's world will be even more complex than today's world, and, to manage this complexity, even more specialized education will be needed.6. The topic treated in this passage is _____.A) education in general B) Americans' attitudes C) higher education D) American education7. Americans' attitudes toward education have always been _____.A) certain B) contradictory C) ambitious D) unclear8. Today, financial success is closely related to the need for _____.A) higher education B) public education C) responsible citizens D) learning the basics9. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _____.A) information is our only product B) education in the future will be specializedC) we are entering an age of information D) we are living in an age of information10. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) The History of American Education. B) The Need for Specialized Education.C) The Future of the American Educational System. D) Attitudes toward American Education.Passage ThreeA growing world population and the discoveries of science may alter this pattern of distribution in the future. As men slowly learn to master diseases, control floods, prevent famines, and stop wars, fewer people die every year; and in consequence the population of the world is steadily increasing. In 1925 there were about 2,000 million people in the world; by the end of the century there may well be over 4,000 million.When numbers rise the extra mouths must be fed. New lands must be brought under cultivation, or land already farmed made to yield larger crops. In some areas the accessible land is so intensively cultivated that it will be difficult to make it provide more food. In some areas the population is so dense that the land is parceled out in units too tiny to allow for much improvement in farming methods. Were a large part of this farming population drawn off into industrial occupations, the land might be farmed much more productively by modern methods. There is now a race for science, technology, and industry to keep the output of food rising faster than the number of people to be fed. New strains of crops are being developed which will thrive in unfavorable climates: there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia and North America; irrigation and dry-farming methods bring arid lands under the plough, dams hold back the waters of great rivers to ensure water for the fields in all seasons and to provide electric power for new industries; industrial chemistry provides fertilizers to suit particular soils; aeroplanes spray cropsto destroy locusts and many plant diseases. Every year some new means is devised to increase or to protect the food of the world.11. The author says that the world population is growing because _____.A) there are many rich valleys and fertile plains B) the pattern of distribution is being alteredC) people are living longer D) new land is being brought under cultivation12. The author says that in densely populated areas the land might be more productively farmed if _____.A) the plots were subdividedB) a large part of the people moved to a different part of the countryC) industrial methods were used in farmingD) the units of land were made much larger13. We are told that there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle. This has been made possible by _____.A) producing new strains of crops B) irrigation and dry-farming methodsC) providing fertilizers D) destroying pests and disease14. Which of these words is nearest in meaning to the word "strains"?A) types B) sizes C) seeds D) harvests15. The author's main purpose is to _____.A) argue for a belief B) describe a phenomenon C) entertain D) propose a conclusion Part II Vocabulary and Structure (15 points)1.

Needless to say, it was too hot to do anything outside. But it was also scorching in our apartment. This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years. So my brother and I decided to leave the apartmentto find someplace indoors. He suggested we could see a movie. It was a brilliant plan.Movie theaters were one of the few places you could sit all day and —most important —sit in air conditioning. In those days, you could buy one ticket and sit through two movies. Then, the theater would show the same two movies again. If you wanted to, you could sit through them twice. Most people did not do that, but the manager at our theater. Mr. Bellow did not mind if you did.That particular day, my brother and I sat through both movies twice, trying to escape the heat.We bought three bags of popcorn and three sodas each. Then, we sat and watched The Music Man followed by The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. We’dalready seen the second movie once before. It had been at the theater since January, because Mr. Bellow loved anything with John Wayne in it.We left the theater around 8, just before the evening shows began. But we returned the nextday and saw the same two movies again, twice more. And we did it the next day too. Finally, onthe fourth day, the heat wave broke.Still, to this day I can sing half the songs in The Music Man and recite half of John Wayneand Jimmy Stewart ’disalogue from The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance!

At theage of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet”or “Mum Bett. ”For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley fa mily. One day, Ashley ’s wife tried to strike Mumbet’s sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, sheleft the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued( 起诉) for her freedom.While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then shethought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom---- the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution.Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for themas a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829,but her legacy lived on in her many descendants( 后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B.Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights.Mumbet’stombstone still stands in the Massachusetts cemetery where she was buried.

A trial that shocked the whole worldPassage ThreeThe rise of the Internet has been one of the most transformative developments in humanhistory, comparable in impact to the invention of the printing press and the telegraph. Over twobillion people worldwide now have access to vastly more information than ever before, and cancommunicate with each other instantly, often using Web-connected mobile devices they carryeverywhere. But the Internet ’s tremendous impacts has only just begun.“Massadoption of the Internet is driving one of the most exciting social, cultural, andpolitical transformations in history, and unlike earlier periods of change, this time the effects arefully global, ”Schmidt and Cohen write in their new book. The New Digital Age.Perhaps the most profound changes will come when the five billion people worldwide whocurrently lack Internet access get online. The authors do an excellent job of examining theimplications of the Internet revolution for individuals, governments, and institutions like the newsmedia. But if the book has one major shortcoming, it ’thsat authors don’stpend enough timeapplying a critical eye to the role of Internet businesses in these weeping changes.In their book, the authors provide the most authoritative volume to date that describes —andmore importantly predicts —how the Internet will shape our lives in the coming decades. Theypaint a picture of a world in which individuals, companies, institutions, and governments mustdeal with two realities, one physical, and one virtual.At the core of the book is the idea that “technology is neutral, but people aren ’t. ”By using this concept as a starting point, the authors aim to move beyond the now familiar optimist vs.pessimist dichotomy( 对立观点)that has characterized many recent debates about whether the riseof the Internet will ultimately be good or bad for society. In an interview with TIME earlier thisweek, Cohen said although he and his co-author are optimistic about many aspects of the Internet,they ’re also realistic about the risks and dangers that lie ahead when the next five billion peoplecome online, particularly with respect to personal privacy and state surveillance( 监视).11.

They are unpredictable.D. They are contaminating.13. In what respect is the book The New Digital Age considered inadequate?A. It fails to recognize the impact of the Internet technology.B .It fails to look into the social implications of the Internet.C. It lacks an objective evaluation of the role of Internet businesses.D. It does not address the technical aspects of Internet communication.14. What will the future be like when everybody gets online?A. People will be living in two different realities.B. People will have equal access to information.C. People don ’t have to travel to see the world.D. People don ’t have to communicate face to face.15. What does the passage say about the authors of The New Digital Age?A. They leave many questions unanswered concerning the Internet.B. They are optimistic about the future of the Internet revolution.C. They have explored the unknown territories of the virtual world.D. They don’t take sides in analyzing t h e effects of the Internet.Part Ⅱvocabulary and structure 每(题1 分,共15分)Directions: for each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A 、B、C and D. choose the one answer that best completes the sentence.16.
