Education is all enormous and expensive part of American life. Its size is matched by its variety. Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of othercountries lie in the fact that education here has long been intended for everyone—not just for a privileged elite(精英，精华). Schools ale expected to meet the needs of every child, regardless of ability, and also the needs of society itself．This means that public schools offer more than academic subjects．It surprises many people when they come here to find high schools offering such courses as typing，sewing，radio repair, computer programming or driver training，along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics，history, and languages．Students choose their curricula(课程)depending on their interests，future goals，and level of ability．The underlying(潜在的) goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities，and to give each one a sense of civic and community consciousness.Schools have traditionally played an important r ole in creating national unity and “Americanizing” the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many different backgrounds and origins. Schools still play a large role in the community, especially in the small towns． The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many, not only because it is informal，but also because there is not much emphasis on learning facts．Instead，Americans try to teach their children to think for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and creative abilities．Students spend much time，learning how to use resource materials libraries, statistics and computers．Americans believe that if children are taught to reason well and to research well, they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the rest of their lives．Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than the accumulation of facts．This is America’s answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking themselves in the fast-moving time：“How Can one prepare today’s child for a tomorrow that one can neither predict nor understand?”1．Which of the following best states the goal of American education?A)To teach every learner some practical skills．B)To provide every learner with rich knowledge．C)To give every student the opportunity to fully develop his／her ability．D)To train every student to be a responsible citizen．2．It is implied in the passage that __________A)all high-school students take the same courses．B)every high school student must take some practical ability training courses．C)every public school offers the same academic subjects．D)the subjects every student takes may vary．3．American schools place great emphasis on the learner’_________A)enrichment of knowledge． B)accumulation of facts．C)acquisition of the ability to be creative．D)acquisition of the ability to work with his hands．4．According to the passage，American education meets the needs of all the followingEXCEPT ________A)the brightest students． B)the slow students． C)the students from foreign countries． D)the immigrants．5. Which of the following best states the feature of American education that makes it different from education in other countries?A)The large number of its schools． B)The variety of the courses offered in its schools． C)Its special consideration given to immigrants.D)Its underlying goal to develop every child’s abilities to the fullest extentThe common cold is the world's most widespread illness, which is plagues (瘟疫) that flesh receives. The most widespread fallacy (谬误) of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses (病毒) passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches (战壕) cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds.In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp (奥斯维辛集中营), naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be dipped with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose. If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? Despite the most pains- research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain suppressors (止痛片) such as aspirin, but all they do is relieve the symptoms (症状).6. The writer offered ________ examples to support his argument.A. 4B. 5C. 6D. 37. Which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage?A. The Eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time.B. Colds are not caused by cold.C. People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.D. A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.8. Arctic explorers may catch colds when _________ .A. they are working in the isolated arctic regionsB. they are writing reports in terribly cold weatherC. they are free from work in the isolated arctic regionsD. they are coming into touch again with the outside world9. Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit ______ .A. suffered a lotB. never caught coldsC. often caught coldsD. became very strong10. The passage mainly discusses __________ .A. the experiments on the common coldB. the fallacy about the common coldC. the reason and the way people catch coldsD. the continued spread of common colds Passage ThreeWhen a consumer(消费者) finds that something he or she bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to what the producer says for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单),or any other records that might help, at the store of buying. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it doesnot, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain(投诉) directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up” the consum er takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favour, taking it as true that he or she has a just right.Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of buying, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can show clearly what is wrong with what was bought in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example,“The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “This stereo(立体音响) does not work.”.The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer, if so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the expected result, the consumer can go a step further. He or she can threaten(恐吓) to take the seller to court or report the seller to a public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.11. When a consumer finds what he bought has a fault in it, he should first _____.A. complain personally to the managerB. show something provable in written form to the storeC. threaten to take the matter to courtD. writer a firm letter of complaint to the store12. If a consumer wants a quick settlement of his problem, it's better to complain to ______A. a shop assistantB. the producerC. a public organizationD. a store manager13. The most effective complaint about what was bought can be made by ________.A. showing the fault of it to the producerB. saying firmly it is of poor qualityC. asking politely to change itD. explaining exactly what is wrong with it14. The passage tells us______.A. how to make the complaint have a good effectB. how to settle a consumer's complaintC. how to avoid buying something wrongD. how to deal with complaints from consumers15. According to the passage, the last way a consumer has to use is _______A. to write to the producerB. to quarrel with the managerC. to warn the seller that he or she will turn to the court or a consumers' organization for helpD. to collect several fighters to threaten the sellerPassage FourDo you have bright ideas? Ideas or inventions that change society or, at least, make life easier for somebody? Perhaps we all do sometimes, but we don’t often make the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a competition called British Designers for Tomorrow. The competition encourages young people to carry out their bright ideas. There were two groups in the contest. Group One was for school children under 16; Group Two was for school children over 16. And there were eleven prize-winners altogether.Neil Hunt, one of the prize winners, was called “Sunshine Superman.” It’s important when people studythe weather to be able to record sunshine accurately. We need to know how many hours of sunshine we have and how strong it is. Most sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Neil’s is more accurate and this is very important for research into the way of using solar power.You can do so much with animated cartoon. Look at Simon West’s idea for animated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to move as you go nearer to or father from them. This isn’t a new idea. But it is new to use these pictures on road signs. “ We found that people were more likely to see moving signs,” said Simon. So now, you can really see rocks falling, trains moving, horses running or a car falling over the edge of a cliff. Quite a warning！The ideas in the competitions were so inventive that we are surprised that British industry doesn’t ask more school children for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of “pupil power”!16. The writer believes that people seldom______.A. have bright ideasB. turn their bright ideas into realityC. make their life easierD. think of inventing something17. The organizers of the competitions hoped the school children who took part in it would_______.A. become good designers for future BritainB. invent something for immediate useC. design something useful for the next dayD. win as many prizes as they could18. Neil Hunt’s design would finally lead to the improvement of the way of____.A. recording direct sunshineB. recording the hours of sunshineC. using the energy of the sunD. knowing how strong sunlight is19. What’s the use of Simon West’s animated road signs?A. To warn people to be careful on the roads while working.B. To warn people on the roads of the danger ahead.C. To add to the beauty of a city.D. To help people make a car trip more exciting.20. The writer seems to be encouraging the British industry to_____.A. take better care of school childrenB. help school children in their studiesC. stop asking school children for suggestionsD. pay more attention to school children’s inventive powerPart III Vocabulary and Structure21．If you don’t take away all your things from the desk, there won’t be enough _____ for my books.A. areaB. placeC. roomD. surface22.

Chambers suggested they go home, but Smith 53 that there were still several hours of daylight 54 and there was one other place they might try a bit longer before 55 .Smith drove his pickup (小货车) a couple of miles along the 56 road to get to the other side of the lake. This road, in the truest sense, was a path wagging in the heavy 57 area. Even with the sun still high in the cloudless sky, the 58 of trees formed a leafy 59 over the road and it suddenly seemed 60 in the evening.“A guy could get lost and nobody would ever find him,” said Chambers.Smith smiled, “We're 61 there,” he said. A few seconds later, the smile was 62 from his face.“What the hell is that?”He braked to a stop. Less than twenty feet away was what appeared to be a 63 . For several minutes the two men sat in the pickup 64 to decide whether they had happened to 65 someone's bad practical joke or something far more serious. Smith with his brother-in-law got out of the pickup and 66 walked towards that thing some distance before them.It was a young man who was already dead. They got to tell 67 . Back into the pickup, Smith backed the pickup down the road 68 he could turn around, then 69 back. With the dead young man still on his mind, Smith felt as if he was going to be sick.

江西省专升本英语模拟试题
2020年江西省“专升本”英语统一考试模拟试卷一PartⅠListening comprehension（10points）(略)PartⅡReading Comprehension（40points）Directions:In this section there are four passages.Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions16-20are based on the following passage.There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence.The first is the sort of brain he is born with.Human brains differ considerably,some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with,an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.So the second factor is what happens to the individual—the sort of environment in which he is brought up.If an individual is handicapped(不利)environmentally,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individual's intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins,Peter and Mark.Being identical,the twins had identical brains at birth,and their growth processes were the same.When the twins were three months old,their parents died,and they were placed in separate foster(抚养)homes.Peter was raised by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college.He was read to as a child,sent to good schools,and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens,when they were given tests to measure their intelligence.Mark's I.Q.was125,twenty-five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother.Given equal opportunities,the twins,having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.16.This selection can best be titled____________.A.Measuring Your IntelligenceB.Intelligence and EnvironmentC.The Case of Peter and MarkD.How the Brain Influences Intelligence17.The best statement of the main idea of this passage is that_______.A.human brains differ considerablyB.the brain a person is born with is important in determining his intelligenceC.environment is crucial in determining a person's intelligenceD.persons having identical brains will have roughly the same intelligence18.According to the passage,the average I.Q.is___.A.85.B.100C.110D.12519.The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that_______.A.individuals with identical brains seldom test at the same levelB.an individual's intelligence is determined only by his environmentck of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligenceD.changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain20.This passage suggests that an individual's I.Q.____.A.can be predicted at birthB.stays the same throughout his lifeC.can be increased by educationD.is determined by his childhoodQuestions21-25are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder(奎蛇).In Scotland,in fact,there are no other snakes at all.The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite.It can be found almost anywhere,but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country,including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal(致命的)misfortune,but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal.Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself,with amateurs(外行人)heroically,but mistakenly,trying do-it-yourself surgery(手术)and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth,so that all snakes can bite,but only the bite of the adder presents any danger.British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them.The adder will attack only if it feels threatened,as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally,or if you try to catch it or pick it up,which it dislikes intensely.If it hears you coming,it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can,but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably.It depends upon several things,one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten.The bigger the person,the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults.A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain,and though these bites can make some people very ill,there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect,as there are of serious illness.21.Adders are most likely to be found_______.A)in wider parts of Britain and Ireland B)in Scotland but nowhere elseC)on wild land through Britain D)in the countryside in England22.If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder,you should______.A)try to catch the snake B)not treat the bite yourselfC)not worry too much about the victim D)operate him as soon as possible23.We are told that adders_______.A)normally friendly towards peopleB)unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC)likely to attack people whenever they see themD)not afraid of human beings24.If an adder hears you approaching,it will usually______.A)move out of your pathB)take no notice of you at allC)disappear very quicklyD)wait until you are close and then attack25.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A)Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B)The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions26-30are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all,companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business.For example,if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles,their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company.People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars.Automobile Company X will go bankrupt (破产);that is,it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials.It will then go out of business.Of course,no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices,the cost of all manufacturers will be equal.So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution.The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26.If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t,it will have to_______.A)change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB)sell its products at a more expensive priceC)buy materials at a higher priceD)pay more money to its workers27.The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that_______.A)manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB)few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC)air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD)people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28.According to the writer,anti-pollution standards ensure that______.A)no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB)less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC)manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29.The purpose of this passage is_______.A)to describe how a company can go bankruptB)to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC)to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutionD)to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30.What can be inferred from thin passage?A)Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B)A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C)The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D)It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure. Questions31-35are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages:mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together,these two considerations improve businesses’chance of making profit.Within the single market,the Community(欧共体)is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets,as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests.At the same time,it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so.The days when taxesare an obstacle to Europe-wide business operation will soon be gone.In addition to creating a favorable business environment,the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies.The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry,information technology,biotechnology(生物技术)and textiles.These measures,at national and community level,will influence the quality of products,the technology used to manufacture them,the training the workforce receives,and the development of new outlets.In short,a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training,research and development and communications networks.The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31.The European Community has found______.A)a single market to carry out mass productionB)the Community market to produce high quality goodsC)a large market to increase business with other countriesD)a new market to make it easier to get profits32.We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy______.A)helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB)encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC)emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD)brings the customer more imported goods33.One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that_______.A)there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB)companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC)there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD)small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.The European Community has adopted some special measures to_______.A)make long-term development of industries possibleB)place some industries before other industriesC)open new markets in other countriesD)enable new technology to be used in manufacturing35.which of the following is likely to be the

Reading comprehension ( 20x1’=20’ )Task1Last year my husband developed a terrible disease. Dale became fearful of going anywhere alone or of being alone as some of his seizures(发作) were quite severe, even putting him in the hospital on three separate occasions.We decided that a trained medical service dog would greatly help Dale. It would be a companion for Dale, and the dog would be trained to stay with him. If he had a seizure, with a service dog beside a downed person, others could see and will be more likely to help.A local person sold us a black Labrador puppy at a reduced price. Nevaeh was eight weeks old when we got her. At that point, we turned to the local papers for help. We hoped that getting Dale’s story out would help raise funds to pay for the puppy’s training. Dale has been on disability, and his need to have someone with him at all times means I can not work either. We don’t have a lot of money left over at the end of the month.Fundraising started off with the help of family donations, but we had a long way to go. Then one day there was a knock at the door. I went to answer it; a stranger stood there holding the newspaper article about Dale in her hand. She introduced herself as June and told me that her daughter’s dog had warned her of a cancer she never knew she had, probably saving her life. Now, she felt obliged to help our dog because a dog had helped her. She shocked us when she gave us $100! We never expected such caring and kindness from a complete stranger.Dale had been feeling the world didn’t care, but this help renewed his faith. The next thing that happened was that Dale emailed local vets, asking for care for our puppy. We received a response from Dr. Noonan, who has since provided Nevaeh’s care for free. The staff and the vet are the most loving,caring people we have met. They even helped us find a local trainer who cut the training costs by more than half. If it weren’t for such amazing people, Dale probably would have become a total recluse, feeling he could never go anywhere alone.1．Why did the couple think a medical service dog would be of great help?A．It could accompany Dale, and when a seizure came, it could attract people to help.B．It could accompany Dale, and in a seizure, it could save Dale.C．People are more likely to save a person if he is a dog lover.D．Dale would not be so lonely, and would get well again soon.2．What made Dale gain confidence again?A．Getting a service dog. B．A lady offered an amount of money to him.C．The vets offered to help. D．His being able to go anywhere.3．Why did the couple think the staff and the vet are the most loving, caring people they have met?A．They provided the puppy’s care for free.B．They trained the puppy for the couple.C．They provided the puppy’s care for free and cut the training cost by half.D．They not only provided the puppy’s care for free but also found a trainer with less than half the cost. 4．What does the underlined sentence “She felt obliged to help…”mean?A．She felt it a duty to help. B．She felt she was forced to help.C．She felt willing to help. D．She felt grateful to help.5．What is the purpose of writing this passage?A．To show how important a good service dog is.B．To show a united family is important.C．To show thanks to those kind people. D．To encourage people not to give up.Task2Forgiving someone who has hurt you or let you down is never an easy thing. Several new studies, however, say that it could have a lot of health benefits. When you think of forgiveness, you probably don’t think of it as being a health or medical problem. Studies from Stanford University, on the other hand, show that something like anger can change your well-being.When cartoon book characters like the Incredible Hulk get angry, they change colours and often gain special power. In the real world, anger is less obvious and may be more dangerous. That’s why Professor Fred Luskin, founder of the Stanford Forgiveness Project and author of Forgive for Good, says holding on to anger and hatred can harm your physical and mental health. Two new studies seem to show the same idea.The studies find that people who are able to forgive feel less stress, less back pain, and less depression.They also have fewer headaches, lower blood pressure, and fewer problems on sleeping.So it doesn’t matter if your anger is caused by the traffic or other things. Learning to let it go is important. Techniques such as deep breath or thought can help. Or just ask yourself if it’s worth hurting yourself by staying angry with someone else.Forgiveness does not mean that you simply accept what happened and say it’s OK. Instead, it’s a way of making peace with yourself about what happened in the past.6. The author of the passage tries to make his viewpoint clear ______.A. by raising his own examples.B. based on his own experience.C. by mentioning some studies.D. by mentioning some typical patients.7. The example of the cartoon book characters is taken in the passage to______.A. support the viewpoint that anger and hatred harm physical and mental health.B. introduce a famous expert.C. let the reader know the different colours of cartoon faces.D. show how to control one’s temper.8. The underlined phrase “holding on to”in this passage possibly means“______”.A. removing.B. keeping up.C. getting rid of.D. learning about.9. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in this passage?A. People who are able to forgive feel less stress.B. People who are able to forgive feel less depression.C. People who are able to forgive have fewer problems on sleeping.D. People who are able to forgive feel less tired.10. The best title for this passage is probably _______.A. Forgiveness.B. Forgiveness Is Good for Health.C. A Secret to Keeping Health.D. Anger Is Bad for Health.Task3If women are mercilessly exploited(剥削) year after year, they have only themselves to blame. Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford tothrow away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; necklines are lowered or raised, and so on.No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability(耐用). They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn’t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusions to be drawn are obvious. Do the constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability(不稳定)? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.11. Designers and big stores always make money ______.A. by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry.B. because they are capable of predicting new fashions.C. by constantly changing the fashions in women’s clothing.D. because they always improve quality of women’s clothing.12. To the writer, the fact that women change their old-fashioned dresses is seen as ______.A. a quality of instability.B. a waste of time.C. an expression of taste.D. an expression of creativity.13 The writer would be less critical if fashion designers placed more stress on the _____ of clothing.A. costB. appearanceC. comfortD. suitability14. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. New fashions in clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.B. The constant changes in women’s clothing reflect their strength of character.C. The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.D. Fashion designs should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.15. By saying “the conclusions to be drawn are obvious”, the writer means that ______.A. women’s changeableness in their choice of clothing is often laughed at.B. women are better able to put up with discomfort.C. men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers.D. men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion.Task 4In 1909 an English newspaper offered £ 1,000 to the first man to fly across the English Channel in an aeroplane. Today, modern jets cross it in minutes. But at that time it still seemed a good distance. The race to win the money soon became a race between two men. Both were very colourful.One was Louis Bleriot. He owned a factory in France that made motor car lamps. He was already well known as a pilot (飞行员) because he had had accidents several times. Some people laughed at him. One man said, “He may not be the first to fly across the Channel but he will certainly be the first to die in an accident!” But Bleriot was really a good and brave pilot. He also had many good ideas about aeroplane design.The other man was Hubert Latham. He was half French and half English. He took up flying when his doctors told him he had only a year to live. “Oh, well,” he said, “if I’ m going to die soon, I think I shall have a dangerous and interesting life now.” L atham was the first to try the flight (飞行) across the Channel. Ten kilometres from the French coast, his plane had some trouble. It fell down into the water and began to sink under the water. A boat reached Latham just in time. He was sitting calmly on the wing and was coolly lighting a cigarette (香烟). Bleriot took off six days later. He flew into some very bad weather and very low cloud. He somehow got to the English side and landed in a farmer’s field. When he did so, a customs (海关) officer rushed up to his plane. Planes have changed since then, but customs officers have not. “Have you anything to declare?” The officer demanded.16.The story took place ____ .A. in the early 20th centuryB. in the 19th centuryC. right after World War ID. at a time not mentioned in the passage17. Bleriot was well known as a piton because ____ .A. he was unusually braveB. he was quite richC. he had many good ideas about aeroplane designD. he had had a few accidents18. Why did Hubert Latham want to fly across the Channel?A. He thought he could manage it easily.B. He wanted to be the first one to cross the Channel.C. He knew he only had a year to live.D. He had always been interested in flying.19. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Latham became a pilot on the doctor’s advice.B. He was told he could live another yea r.C. His plane had some trouble.D. He was saved by a boat when his plane was20. “Do you have anything to declare?” means ____ .A. “Do you want any help?”B. “Is there anything wrong?”C. “Have you brought anything on which custom duties must be paid?”D. “Do you have anything to say to the public?”Part Ⅳ.

By 65, most people will start to notice the signs: you forget people’s names and the teapot occasionally turns up in the fridge.Here is a good reason why our memories start to let us down. At this stage of life, we are steadily losing brain cells in critical areas. This is not too much of a problem at first; even in old age, the brain is flexible enough to compensate. At some point, though, the losses start to make themselves felt.Clearly, not everyone ages in the same way, so what’s the difference between a happy, intelligent old person and a forgetful, bad-tempered granny? and can we improve our chances of becoming the former?Exercise can certainly help. Numerous studies have shown that gentle exercise three times a week can improve concentration and abstract reasoning in older people, perhaps by encouraging the growth of new brain cells. Exercise also helps steady our blood sugar. As we age, our blood sugar control worsens, which causes a large increase in blood sugar levels. This can affect an area that helps form memories. Since physical activity helps control blood sugar, getting out and about could reduce these peaks and, potentially, improve your memory.Coordination training could also help. Studies have shown that specifically targeting motor control and balance improves learning function in 60 to 80-year-old. Brain training was once considered strange, but a study concludes that computerized brain exercises can improve memory and attention in the over 65s. Importantly, these changes were large enough that participants reported significant improvements in everyday activities, such as remembering names or following conversations in noisy restaurants. Avoiding the complaints is even easier. In fact, your brain is doing all it can to ensure a contented retirement. By 65, we are much better at increasing the experience of positive emotion, says Florin Dolcos, a neurobiologist at the University of Alberta in Canada. In experiments, he found that people over the age of 60 tended to remember fewer emotionally negative photographs compared with positive ones than younger peopleIt is usual for retired people to have ________（）A.a distant memoryB.a terrible memoryC.a painful memoryD.a changeable memory35.Strategic times are best for us to____（）A.save energyB.check e-mailsC.tudy efficientlyanize activities36.Studies show that _____ make poor nutritional decisions（）A.a great number of individualsB.some individualsC.almost no individualsD.a small number of individuals37.Children are important for advertising because they are _______（）A.important for the societyB.the most potential buyersC.easily influenced by adsD.easily affected by poor products38.Why are some restaurants turning up the pressure to sell bottled water（）A.Bottled water brings in huge profitspetition from the wine industry is intenseC.Most diners find bottled water affordableD.Bottled water satisfies diners'desire to be fashionable六、作文(1题)39.1.目前，越来越多的大学生做兼职。

Jim was studying French and Steve Chinese, both at the Foreign Service Institute. We shared many things in common, but we also thought and acted quite differently. Steve was interested in speaking Chinese. He always tried every opportunity to talk with me with his very English-like pronunciation. I was often touched by his diligence. However, I wanted to practice English with him, too. So we often spoke at the same time in the other's mother tongue. Jim was fresh from college and the youngest of the three. He was going out all the time. The only time we met was at breakfast. There was a small round table in our kitchen, where we sat around to enjoy our food. Steve had Chinese fast food such as dumplings or noodles, and I ate bread and boiled eggs. But Jim often just drank a cup of tea because he had nothing in his fridge. He was too busy dating pretty French girls to do any shopping. I often offered him some of my food. But Steve told me in his poor Chinese that I didn't need to do that. He said that it was Jim's own fault and that it served him right. Although he was learning Chinese, he still held his American sense of values.Two years later, I returned to China. The three of us still keep in touch. Jim now works in a travel agency in Paris. He got married to one of the pretty girls. He wrote to tell us that he can now enjoy a delicious breakfast with his beautiful wife every morning in their comfortable living room. Steve wants to work in China. And I'm helping him with this. I have introduced him to the dean of the Oversea Section of our university. He is very interested in Steve.He wants to know if Steve can work here teaching the oversea students Chinese. I have sent the message to Steve. I'm sure he'd be very happy to accept the job. However, I hope he could try harder to improve himself. Otherwise, all the overseas students would speak with his terrible pronunciation!Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage（）A.The three of them were all language majorsB.Steve and Jim were more alike in characterC.The author didn't enjoy talking with SteveD.Their living condition was rather poor50.We can know from the passage that _________（）A.half the parents feel doubtful about public educationB.most parents have religious considerationC.some parents want to escape the compulsory educationD.public schools should not interfere in private education51.Which of the following statements about your personal data is true（）A.They will be of much help to your interviewB.They are more important than the interviewC.They should be written as simply as possibleD.They should include all your personal information52.Persons who are overweight should watch their diet carefully in order to lose pounds. The best way to do this is to start a weight control program. At first it is wise to talk with your doctor. He can advise you of the number of calories （卡路里）you should have in your meals each day. He can tell you about exercising while on your diet. A good rule is to lose slowly. A loss of a pound or two is plenty.Plan meals around foods you know. This means that it is wise to include foods that you are used to and that are part of your regular eating habits. When you have lost the weight you wish, simple items can be added to your diet so that you can maintain the weight you want. While you are dieting, try to build a pattern of eating that you can follow later to maintain your desired weight. When dieting, choose low-calorie foods. Avoid such items as fats, fried food, sweets, cakes, cream and soft drinks. Try to take coffee and tea without sugar or cream. Snacks can be part of your diet. For example, a piece of fruit or asimple dessert saved from mealtime can be eaten between meals.Keep busy! This way you will not be tempted to go off the diet. Make full use of opportunities to exercise. Try walking instead of riding whenever possible. Happy dieting!What is the main idea of the passage（）A.How to dietB.Why we should dietC.What we should dietD.Where we should diet53.How were the job applicants able to lie without being detected（）A.By leaving out some necessary informationB.By providing more information than neededC.By using their body languageD.By telling some unbelievable lies六、作文题(1题)54.According to the given information, you are required to write a composition entitled The Importance of Humor in about 100 words.

Well, you can. The forecast is written in clouds. If you can read that writing, you can tell something about the atmosphere. With some practice, you can become a pretty good weather forecaster. Who knows, you might even do as well as meteorologists.Meteorologists use much more information than just the appearance of the clouds to make their forecast. They collect data from all over the world.Then they put it into powerful, high-speed computers. This does give the meteorologists an advantage, because they can track weather patterns as theymove from west to east across the country. But you have an advantage, too. You can look at the sky and get your data directly. A meteorologist uses a computer forecast that’s several hours old to make a local forecast.What are you seeing when you look at a cloud? A picture of moisture is doing in the atmosphere, says meteorologist Peter Leavitt. There’s moisture throughout the atmosphere. Most of the time you don’t see it, because it’s in the form of an invisible gas called water vapor. Sometimes, the temperature of the air gets cold enough to cause the water vapor to change to liquid water. It’s called condensation, and we see it happen all the time （for example,when humid air from the shower hits the cold glasses of a mirror）. Whenenough water vapor condenses, droplets（小水滴）come in the air. These droplets scatter light. A cloud is seen.Watching clouds over a day or two tells you a lot more than a single cloud about the weather to come. Changes in clouds show changes in the atmosphere. You should begin to notice patterns. Certain clouds, following each other in order, can signal an approaching storm. But don’t take our word for it; see for yourselfWhat does meteorologists refer to _________（）A.People who study the earth's atmosphere and its changesB.people who broadcast weather on TVC.people who are in charge of weather forecastD.people who study the earth’s rocks and the history of its development51.For many people, having your own business sounds like the perfect job. You can do work that you love. You can set your own business schedule and wear jeans to work. You never have to listen to a boss, and you make all the decisions yourself. You can even raise your salary any time you want.But the reality is different. Having your own business can be lonely, says David Paik. After working for an advertising agency for six years, he started a website design business at home. His first income in the first two months was ＄0. Finally, he got a big project creating a website for a magazine. Then he had a new problem: his schedule. I was working twelve hours a day, seven days a week, because I didn’t have employees to help me. Today, Paik Web Design is successful, but David says, I really wasn’t prepared to be a business owner. I didn’t understand the challenges.Some of the challenges are practical. With no boss, it’s easy to take too much time off and get too little work done. With no co-workers, you might feelbored or lonely. You have to pay for your own benefits like vacations, insurance, and a retirement plan. and if you make a bad business decision, you could lose all the money you invested. For all of the reasons, more than half of all new businesses fail within one year.Another problem is balancing work with personal life. As a business owner, you can’t just stop at 5 p.m. and forget about your work until tomorrow. Even when I’m watching TV in the evening, I’m always thinking about my clients and my projects, says David Paik.Still, hundreds of people around the world start business every day, and most enjoy the experience. There are lots of advantages to having your own business, says Denise Williams, the owner of a women’s clothing store. You can decide exactly how to do your work, how much money you want to make, and who will work for you. Williams borrowed money from family members to get her business started. She began by making and selling T-shirts in her apartment, and she has just opened a new, large store.Laura Castro, owner of a translation service, agrees. When you are your own boss, there are no limits. I started five years ago, translating Spanish and English. Now I have employees who work with six different languages. and five years from now? I can’t imagine! she smilesAccording to David Paik, being your own boss is（）A.enjoyableB.perfectC.challengingD.easy52.Passage TwoThe average person swallows about half-a-ton of food a year—not counting drink—and though the body is remarkably efficient at extracting（摄取）justwhat it needs from this huge mixture, it can only cope up to a point. （67）If you go on eating too much of some things and not enough of others, you’ll eventually get out of condition and your health will suffer. So think before you start eating. It may look good. It may taste good. Fine! But how much good is it really doing you?What you eat and the way it affects your body depend very much on the kind of person you are. For one thing, the genes you inherit from your parents can determine how your body metabolism（新陈代谢）copes with particularfoods. The tendency to put on weight rather easily, for example, often runs in families—which means that they have to take particular care.And your parents may shape your future in another way. The way you are brought up shapes some basic attitudes to food—like whether you have a sweet tooth, nibble between meals, take big mouthfuls or eat chips with everything. Eating habits, good or bad, tend to get passed on.And then there is your lifestyle. How much you spend on food （time as wellas money）, how much exercise you get—these can alter the balance betweenfood and fitness.And finally, both your age and your sex may affect this balance. For example, you’re more likely to put on weight as you get older, especially if you’re a woman.So everybody is different and the important thing is to know yourself Before eating something, we are advised to consider____（）A.how good it will tasteB.whether we really need itC.why we want to eat itD.if we have eaten too much of it53.Who most probably knows best how to describe people’s personality（）A.The ancient Greek audienceB.The movie actorsC.PsychologistsD.The modern TV audience六、作文题(1题)54.Directions:This part is to test your ability to do practical writing.

However, at an on-campus job 41in Jiangsu Province students found it difficult to get a good offer from big companies. It seemed that most companies preferred undergraduates.42, some of the postgraduates ascribed （归因于）their failure in job hunting to the 43three-year education.In my opinion, this phenomenon has much to do 44 our educational system. In China, most students work hard only45 a high score on exams, while totally ignoring the importance of practical skills. Young college students choose to continue their studies for a higher degree, because they believe the diploma can make them more 46 in job hunting. However, it is a misunderstanding that all companies will think 47 of the applicant with a master's degree. In fact, what most transnational corporations want is an employee with rich work experience. Nowadays, employers pay more attention to48 skills and innovation ability，49 will enable their employees to make greater contributions and bring more benefits to the company. In this situation, those who have a higher degree but lack practical skills will not be50.Furthermore, postgraduates usually51 a higher salary, while undergraduates tend to be satisfied with a lower starting salary. The best way to52 a company is to save costs and improve work efficiency. If you were the employer, would you be willing to pay more money53 an employee with less experience? I guess the answer is negative.In a word, it is important for both undergraduates and postgraduates to 54 their knowledge structure and improve practical skills to survive in the55 social competition41.（）A.meetingB.fairC.sceneD.sight18.43.（）A.tearfullyB.seriouslyC.carefullyD.calmly19.2（）A.connectedB.expandedC.exposedD.extended20.64（）A.askB.warnC.tellD.promise三、翻译(3题)21.We can certainly overcome these difficulties so long as we are closely united22.The 16-year-old girl decided to travel abroad on her own despite her parents'strong opposition23.皮特太年轻，无法明白这一切四、词汇与语法(3题)24.surprised me most was such a little boy of seven could play the violin so well（）25._______ you want to chat about, we’ll do it tonight（）26.A news report is usually very short, _________ when it is about something very important（）五、单选题(0题)27.The departure time of the plane has been postponed, so we have nothing to do now but_________（）A.waitB.to be waitingC.to waitD.waiting六、单选题(0题)28.She put an extra blanket over the baby lest he a cold（）A.catchesB.should catchC.caughtD.could catch参考答案1.A2.B比尔和他的父母都不在家，所以我们最好下次来。

Education is all enormous and expensive part of American life. Its size is matched by its variety. Differences in American schools compared with those found in the majority of othercountries lie in the fact that education here has long been intended for everyone—not just for a privileged elite(精英,精华 . Schools ale expected to meet the needs of every child, regardless of ability, and also the needs of society itself. This means that public schools offer more than academic subjects. It surprises many people when they come here to find high schools offering such courses as typing, sewing , radio repair, computer programming or driver training , along with traditional academic subjects such as mathematics , history, and languages. Students choose their curricula(课程 depending on their interests, future goals, and level of ability. The underlying(潜在的 goal of American education is to develop every child to the utmost of his or her own possibilities, and to give each one a sense of civic and community consciousness.Schools have traditionally played an important role in creating national unity and “Americanizing” the millions of immigrants who have poured into this country from many different backgrounds and origins. Schools still play a large role in the community, especially in the small towns . The approach to teaching may seem unfamiliar to many, not only because it is informal, but also because there is not much emphasis on learning facts. Instead , Americans try to teach their children to think for themselves and to develop their own intellectual and creative abilities. Students spend much time, learning how to use resource materials libraries, statistics and computers. Americans believe that if children are taught to reason well and to research well, they will be able to find whatever facts they need throughout the rest of their lives . Knowing how to solve problems is considered more important than the accumulation of facts . This is America’s answer to the searching question that thoughtful parents all over the world are asking themselves in the fast-moving time:“How Can one prepare today’s child for a tomorrow that one can neither predict nor understand?”1. Which of the following best states the goal of American education?ATo teach every learner some practical skills. BTo provide every learner with rich knowledge. CTo give every student the opportunity to fully develop his/her ability. DTo train every student to be a responsible citizen .2. It is implied in the passage that __________Aall high-school students take the same courses. Bevery high school student must take some practical ability training courses. Cevery public school offers the same academic subjects. Dthe subjects every student takes may vary.3. American schools place great emphasis on the learn er’_________Aenrichment of knowledge . Baccumulation of facts . Cacquisition of the ability to be creative . Dacquisition of the ability to work with his hands.4. According to the passage, American education meets the needs of all the followingEXCEPT ________Athe brightest students . Bthe slow students . Cthe students from foreign countries . Dthe immigrants .5. Which of the following best states the feature of American education that makes it different from education in other countries?AThe large number of its schools. BThe variety of the courses offered in its schools. CIts special consideration given to immigrants.DIts underlying goal to develop every child’s abilities to the fullest extentThe common cold is the world's most widespread illness, which is plagues (瘟疫that flesh receives. The most widespread fallacy (谬误 of all is that colds are caused by cold. They are not. They are caused by viruses (病毒 passing on from person to person. You catch a cold by coming into contact, directly or indirectly, with someone who already has one. If cold causes colds, it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos to suffer from them forever. But they do not. And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes.During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches (战壕cold and wet, showed no increased tendency to catch colds.In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp (奥斯维辛集中营 , naked and starving, were astonished to find that they seldom had colds.At the Common Cold Research Unit in England, volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time. After taking hot baths, they put on bathing suits, allowed themselves to be dipped with cold water, and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room. Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion. Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose. If, then, cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds, why are they more frequent in the winter? Despite the most pains- research, no one has yet found the answer. One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times, and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on.No one has yet found a cure for the cold. There are drugs and pain suppressors (止痛片 such as aspirin, but all they do is relieve the symptoms (症状 .6. The writer offered ________ examples to support his argument.A. 4B. 5C. 6D. 37. Which of the following does not agree with the chosen passage?A. The Eskimos do not suffer from colds all the time.B. Colds are not caused by cold.C. People suffer from colds just because they like to stay indoors.D. A person may catch a cold by touching someone who already has one.8. Arctic explorers may catch colds when _________ .A. they are working in the isolated arctic regionsB. they are writing reports in terribly cold weatherC. they are free from work in the isolated arctic regionsD. they are coming into touch again with the outside world9. Volunteers taking part in the experiments in the Common Cold Research Unit ______ .A. suffered a lotB. never caught coldsC. often caught coldsD. became very strong10. The passage mainly discusses __________ .A. the experiments on the common coldB. the fallacy about the common coldC. the reason and the way people catch coldsD. the continued spread of common colds Passage ThreeWhen a consumer(消费者 finds that something he or she bought is faulty or in some other way does not live up to what the producer says for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单 ,or any other records that might help, at the store of buying. In most cases, this action will produce results. However, if it doesnot, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain(投诉directly to the store manager. In general, the “higher up” the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled. In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favour, taking it as true that he or she has a just right.Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of buying, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can show clearly what is wrong with what was bought in question. If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements. For example,“The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear” is better than “This stereo(立体音响does not work.”.The store manager may advise the consumer to write to the producer, if so, the consumer should do this, stating the complaint as politely and as firmly as possible. But if a polite complaint does not achieve the expected result, the consumer can go a step further. He or she can threaten(恐吓 to take the seller to court or report the seller to a public organization responsible for protecting consumers' rights.11. When a consumer finds what he bought has a fault in it, he should first _____.A. complain personally to the managerB. show something provable in written form to the storeC. threaten to take the matter to courtD. writer a firm letter of complaint to the store12. If a consumer wants a quick settlement of his problem, it's better to complain to ______A. a shop assistantB. the producerC. a public organizationD. a store manager13. The most effective complaint about what was bought can be made by ________.A. showing the fault of it to the producerB. saying firmly it is of poor qualityC. asking politely to change itD. explaining exactly what is wrong with it14. The passage tells us______.A. how to make the complaint have a good effectB. how to settle a consumer's complaintC. how to avoid buying something wrongD. how to deal with complaints from consumers15. According to the passage, the last way a consumer has to use is _______A. to write to the producerB. to quarrel with the managerC. to warn the seller that he or she will turn to the court or a consumers' organization for helpD. to collect several fighters to threaten the sellerPassage FourDo you have bright ideas? Ideas or inventions that change society or, at least, make life easier for somebody? Perhaps we all do sometimes, but we don’t often make the idea a reality. Recently, in Britain, there was a competition called British Designers for Tomorrow. The competition encourages young people to carry out their bright ideas. There were two groups in the contest. Group One was for school children under 16; Group Two was for school children over 16. And there were eleven prize-winners altogether.Neil Hunt, one of the prize winners, was called “Sunshine Superman.” It’s important when people studythe weather to be able to record sunshine accurately. We need to know how many hours of sunshine we have and how strong it is. Most sunshine recorders only record direct sunlight. Neil’s is more accurate and this is very important for research into the way of using solar power.You can do so much with animated cartoon. Look at Simon West’s idea for animated road signs. He uses pictures which appear to move as you go nearer to or father from them. This isn’t a new idea. But it is new to use these pictures on road signs. “ We found that people were more likely to see moving signs,” said Simon. So now, you can really see rocks falling, trains moving, horses running or a car falling over the edge of a cliff. Quite a warning!The ideas in the competitions were so inventive that we are surprised that British industry doesn’t ask more school children for suggestions. Perhaps this will be the start of “pupil power”!16. The writer believes that people seldom______.A. have bright ideasB. turn their bright ideas into realityC. make their life easierD. think of inventing something17. The organizers of the competitions hoped the school children who took part in it would_______. A. become good designers for future Britain B. invent something for immediate useC. design something useful for the next dayD. win as many prizes as they could18. Neil Hunt’s design would fi nally lead to the improvement of the way of____.A. recording direct sunshineB. recording the hours of sunshineC. using the energy of the sunD. knowing how strong sunlight is19. What’s the use of Simon West’s animated road signs?A. To warn people to be careful on the roads while working.B. To warn people on the roads of the danger ahead.C. To add to the beauty of a city.D. To help people make a car trip more exciting.20.
