2024年江苏省一般高等学校“专转本”统一考试高校英语第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共40分)Passage oneUnder proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected from a hillside or other such obstruction. Sound travels at the rate of about one-fifth of mile per second. If the hill is eleven hundred feet away, it takes two seconds for the sound to travel o the hill and back. Thus, by timing the interval between a sound and its reflection (the echo), you can estimate the distance to an obstruction.During word war 2 the British used a practical application of this principle to detect German planes on their way to bomb London long before the enemy was near the target. They used radio waves instead of sound waves, since radio waves can penetrate fog and clouds. The outnumbered Royal Air Force (RAF) always seemed to the puzzled Germans to be lying in wait at the right time and never to be surprised. It was radio echoes more than anything else that won the Battle of Britain.Since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the RAF planes and the distance to send them (their range of flight, in other words), the device was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials the word radar was coined. (files come from )1. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the.A. heigt of the hillB. speed of soundC. distance to the hillD. intensite of sound2. Practical applications of this principles resulted in.A. New electronic instruments for planesB. A radio directing and ranging deviceC. New radio sets for RAF bombersD.

Both A and B4.It can be inferred from the passage thatA. Light waves could be used in a device similar to radarB. Radar was a practical application of a well-known principleC. Radar greatly increased the effectiveness of the Royal Air ForceD. Sound waves are reflected from a hillside under all conditions5. The author of this passage probably intended to explainA. Exactly how radar worksB. Why the British used radio waves in their deviceC. How radar (work and device) came to beD. How radar helped the British win the Battle of BritainPassage TwoIn general, the ancient Romans were a practical people. They cared less about philosophy and pure mathematics than did the Greeks. The Romans were the best of the ancient engineers and architects. They were brilliant students of Greek geometry and trigonometry (三角学) , and they applied their knowledge to the construction of fine bridges, roads, aqueducts (渠道) , and public buildings.They knew about the smelting of iron ore, but they used the iron they produced mainly for spears, swords, and shields, rather than for building construction.While the Romans accomplished practical wonders, they did very little theoretical scientific thinking. Because of their frequent wars, many of their inventions were no more than improvements in the design of Greek weapons with which they were familiar.There are two reasons for the Romans neglect of philosophy and pure mathematics. First, they were apparently too busy conquering nearby nations and forming them into a rapidly growing empire to waste time on abstract thinking. Secondly, they were handicapped (阻碍) by the rigidity of their numerical system. (Try to multiply XI by LVII orto divide CXLIII by IX; it simply cannot be done with pencil and paper.) The Romans did all of their arithmetic on an abacus, the ancient counterpart of the modern computing machine. Their number system discouraged the study of pure mathematics.6. The author calls the Romans “practical” because theyA. Cared little about philosophyB. Applied their knowledge to constructionC. Saw the necessity for developing theoretical scienceD. Studied the past and learned from it7.The ancient Romans did not concern themselves withA. Theoretical or abstract thoughtB. applied mathematicsC. StudyingD. either A or C8.In construction, the Romans made extensive use ofA. Iron oreB. peometry and trigonometryC. StudyingD. both B and C9.Many Romans inventions were based on Greek weapons because theA. Greeks had superior weaponsBromines were involved in frequent warsC. Romans were not familiar with many types of weaponsD. Greek proved himself or herself inspired inventor10.The author of this passage probably wanted to explain whyA. He considers the Romans a practical peopleB. Roman were involved in frequent warsC. Theoretical thinking is necessary fir the growth of a nationD. The Romans contributed little to philosophical thoughtPassage ThreeProfessor Barry Wellman if University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interacts these days. The term to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet ande-mail, our social networks involved live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and Americans Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the coputer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that’s a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with MORE real people than expected-helpful-people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million American told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them major life decisions.Thanks to the computer. “networked individuals” are able to be alone and together with other people-at the same time!11. the pew study was conducted inA. the United StatesB.

Which of the following was NOT one of the discoveries of Pew study?A. The Internet has put us in touch with more people than expected.B. People use the Internet to get advice on careers, medical problems, and otherquestions.C. For many Americans, the Internet plays an important role in helping them makeimportant decisions.D. “Internet addiction” is a growing problem among people who use computers. Passage four(非英语类学生必做)Summers with father were always enjoyable. Swimming, hiking, boating, fishing-the days were not long enough to contain all of activities. There never seemed to be enough time to go to church, which disturbed some friends and relations. Accused of neglecting this part of our education, my father instituted a summer school for my brother and me. However, his summer course included ancient history, which Papa felt our schools neglected, and navigation, in which we first had a formal examination in the dining room, part of which consisted of tying several knots in a given time limit. Then we were each separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise in my father’s 18-foot knockabout, spending the night on board, and loaded down, according to formally plot our course, using the tide table, even though our goal was an island I could see quite clearly across the water in the distance.16.

The first of these was a colonial institution. It began in New England with the establishment in 1635 of the Boston Free Latin School. The curriculum consisted mainly of the classical languages, and the purpose of this kind of school was the preparation of boys for college, where most of them would be fitted for the ministry.The academy began in the early 1750’s with Benjamin Franklin’s school in Philadelphia, which later became the University of Pennsylvania. It extended generally to about the middle of the nineteenth century, except in the southern states where the public high school was late in developing and where the academy continued a principal means of secondary education even after 2900. the academy was open to girls as well as to boys, and it provided a wider curriculum than the Latin grammar school had furnished. It was designed not only as a wider curriculum than the Latin grammar school had furnished. It was designed not only as a preparation for college but also for practical life in commercial and business activities. Although its wide educational values were evident and are recognized as important contributions to secondary education in this country, the academy was never considered a public institution as the public high school has come to be.The public high school had its origin in Massachusetts in 1821 when the EnglandClassicalSchool was established in Boston. In 1827, that state enacted the first state-wide public high-school law in the United States. By 1840, there were perhaps a dozen public high schools in Massachusetts and many in other eastern states; by 1850, they were also to be found in many other states.Just as the curriculum of the academy grew out of that of the Latin grammar school, so the curriculum of the public high school developed out of the academy. The public high school in the United States is a rejection of the aristocratic (贵族) and selective principle of the European educational tradition. Since 1890, enrollments in secondary schools, mainly public high schools, have practically doubled in this country every ten years.16. According to the author, the main types of secondary education in the United States have been provided byA.

From the airport, my friend and I 66 a taxi to my hotel. On the way, I saw the skyline of Manhattan for the first time and I stared in 67 at the famous Word Trade Centre, the tallest building in the word. My friend helped me 68 at the hotel and then left because he had to go 69 to work. He promised to return the next day.Shortly after he left, I went to a 70 near the hotel to get something to eat. As I cou ldn't speak 71 of english, I couldn’t tell the 72 what I wanted. I was very upset and started to make some gestures, but the waiter didn’t 73 me.

But how much sleep do we actually need?For most of us, eight hours seems to be about the right amount. Yet we know that there are many people who get 61 perfectly with less sleep, and some who may need 62 . A great deal depends on the 63 we live. But a good general rule 64 is to sleep as long as we have to in order to feel happy and be able to work 65 our best when we awaken.There are actually different 66 of sleep. There is a deep sleep and shallow sleep. In a shallow sleep our body does not get the same kind of rest it gets in a 67 sleep, 68 after eight hours of a shallow sleep we may still feel tired. But a short, deep can be very 69 .Alexander the Great was able to get a deep sleep 70 he needed it. Once, during the night before an important battle, he remained 71 longer than anyone else. 72 he wrapped himself in a cloak and 73 down on the earth. He slept so 74 that his generals had to wake him three times for him to give the 75 to atack!Normally when we sleep, our “sleep center” blocks off nerves so that 76 our brain and body go to sleep. 77 prevents us from wanting to do anything, and the other 78our internal organs and limbs go to sleep. 79 sometmes only one goes to sleep and the other does not.

2020年江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语真题(总分:150.00,做题时间:150分钟)一、Reading Comprehension(总题数:4,分数:40.00)Passage OneWhen Beverly Goodman was in elementary school, she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic: disasters. She told her classmates about the eruption that buried Pompeii, the black plague, and famous shipwrecks likethe Titanic and the Lusitania. Today, at 45, she's a marine geoarchaeologist(地理考古学家)who excavates coastlines for clues to erosion, past tsunamis(海啸), and other disasters. “It's fun ny now that I'm a disaster scientist, basically,” she says. “It all came together.”Human settlements have long been built around access to water. Goodman studies how coastal change affected our ancestors: Were people forced to leave? Did they find innovative ways to adapt to the changes? This knowledge, she says, can help us “prepare responsibly for what this landscape is going to look like in the future.” That was the case when Goodman and her team of scientists proved tsunamis had struck the coast of what is now Israel over the course of thousands of years. Partly as a result of their research, the country in 2014 developed its first tsunami preparedness plan.Humans are manipulating coastlines more dramatically than ever, says Goodman. To learn what effe ct this will have, “we need to be working faster, and we need more people working on it.” She believes ancient clues buried underwater can save lives, particularly in places without written records.(分数:10)(1).When Goodman was a little girl , she might be interested in________.(分数:2)ndscapesB.art and literatureC.science and technologyD.disasters in history √解析:be interested in定位到文章“favorite”,原文第一句“she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic:disasters.

I. Reading Comprehension(本题共 20 小题,每题 2 分共 40 分)Directions: There are 4 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 OneIf one is asked about the best way to improve one's reading ability, it is of course, to read. As a student, you must make a real effort to improve both your reading speed and your comprehension. Too many students read passively and without judgment; they simply start at the first word and read through to the end. You should read a passage actively, selectively and purposefully. You must believe that you indeed have the ability to read faster and understand more, and that you will.Reading, like everything else in life, is best done when you are relaxed. The key to improve it is concentration. You must be willing to break some old habits and form new ones. Extra body movement, such as turning the head from side to side, pointing at the line with a finger or a pencil, or moving the lips, should be stopped immediately. Reading is mostly a mental process and body movement helps neither speed nor comprehension. Then you shouldsee words as part of a whole sentence or paragraph, not just in isolation. This is why a slow, word-by-word student often understands far less, missing much of the joy and excitement of reading.The student must learn to improve reading skills on their own, and not just when a teacher is looking over his shoulder. Reading improvement takes discipline and effort.

Many people spend all their lives to forget those bitter ones. Violence and traffic accidents, esp. can leave people with terrible physicaland emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body from releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories."Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions." said Roger Pit man, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity(特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out." said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.6.The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. an argument about the research on the pillC. a way of erasing painful memoriesD. a new research on the pill7.American researchers are developing a pill to .A. comfort those people who are in a frightening experienceB. help those people to forget their frightening experienceC. persuade those people to forget their frightening experienceD. test those people's degree of fright in a frightening experience8.The drug tested on people can .A. prevent the body from producing certain chemicalsB. relieve people of the mental tensionC. cause the brain to fix memoriesD. wipe out the memories of bad experiences9.We can infer from the passage that .A. people supporting the research believe that the pill will stop people's bad experiencesB. people supporting the research believe the pill will help people to reduce the harm caused by bad experiencesC. people against the research believe that the effect of the pills may not bed desirableD. people against the research believe that the pill will cause them to make mistakes10. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. The pill will reduce people's suffering from bad memories.D. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.Passage ThreeLarge modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who live in them. Persons living in cities are obliged by their environment to take a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and the rhythm of the nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are difficult to obtain. and therefore are highly valued. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere. Tall building hide the sun completely. Even the distinction between day and night is lost.rge modem cities impose their living condition on people in thatA. sunshine and fresh air are availableB. living conditions are improvedC. beautiful landscape can be foundD. air-conditioned houses are provided12.Which is NOT one of the reasons why city life is not more desirable?A. Tall buildings hide the sun completely.B. Modern cities are too big to control.C. Modern cities offer better schools and more chances of employment.D. People are barely conscious of the seasons.13.According to the passage, the following can be the reasons for the loss of distinction between day and night except thatA. persons living in cities live in air-conditioned housesB. people lose touch with the natureC. people are traveling through different time zonesD. the sun was hidden from view by tall buildings14.If you want to know what season it is,A. it is advisable for you to live in an air-conditioned houseB. you'd better visit a public parkC. you should go out to see the sunshine and breathe the fresh airD. you should walk on the pavement15.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Large modern cities are too big to controlB. Sunshine and fresh air are rare in large modern cities.C. There are many disadvantages of living in large modern cities.D. All the simple, good things of life are imposed on the people who live in large cities.Passage FourRobots in use now are taking over the blue-collar jobs of less educated Americans, but artificial intelligence (AI) is probably ready to shake up college-educated employees in higher-paying jobs. This will leave no worker unaffected by the influence of technology on the American workforce.AI is generally regarded as programming computers to do things that normally require human intelligence-tasks such as planning, learning, reasoning and problem-solving. Muro, asenior fellow at the Brookings Institute, and his colleagues analyzed which jobs would be the most highly affected by artificial intelligence. What they learned is that almost every profession will feel Al's effects.But it’s hard to predict whether AI will take the place of more highly skilled workers in the same way robots have done to lower-skilled workers. AI might create entirely new jobs for humans. "We can't really say whether AI will lead to the support of work or its opposite. Both things could happen." says Muro.Jobs performed by people with a four-year college degree could be the hardest hit. These include market research analysts, sales managers, programmers, management analysts and engineers. Positions that are heavily involved in pattern-oriented or “predictive work” are more likely to be affected, according to the analysis.Of course, this is not the first time American workers have been influenced or potentially influenced by technology. The challenge, as Muro sees, it is to determine how humans can add value. He believes that human beings are durable in the face of new technologies. The question is how to help people accept training again, seek new work, and how they can adjust to it, or if their careers break down from this, how to provide a better social safety net.16.Who can AI affect most in the American workforce?A. Senior workers.B. Blue-collar workers.C. More-educated employees.D. Inexperienced employees.17.What did Muro and his colleagues find out?A. AI is considered as programming computers to complete tasks.B. AI can deal with tasks such as planning and reasoning.C. AI is better at problem-solving than humans.D. AI can affect almost every field.18.What can we infer from what Muto says?A. AI will replace some skilled workers.B. AI will play as a double-edged sword.C. AI will develop in the same way as robots.D. AI will create entirely new jobs for humans.19.Which of the following positions are NOT likely to be replaced by AI?A. Management analysts.B. Sales managers.C. Programmers.D. Fashion designers.20.What should human beings do in face of the challenges posed by AI?A. Use their potential to adjust to it.B. Work harder than before.C. Wait for another opportunity.D. Learn to be durable.II. Vocabulary and Structure ( 本题共 15 小题,每题 1 分,共 15 分 )Directions: For each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A.B.C and D.

江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语测试题(二)及答案江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语测试题(二)Part I Reading Comprehension(共20 小题,每小题2 分,共40 分)Passage OneA student is learning to speak British English. He wants to know: Can I speak with American? Can they understand me? Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British English and American English? How important are these differences?Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English. There are a few differences in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say "in hospital" and "Have you a pen?" Americans say "in the hospital" and "Do you have a pen?" Pronunciation is sometimes different.Americans usually sound the 'r's in words like "bird" and "hurt". Speakers of British English do not sound the 'r's in these words. There are differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example, "colour" and "honour" are British English. “Color” and "hono r" are American English. These differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary are not important, however, for the most part, British and American English are the same language.1. According to this passage, a student who is learning to speak American English might be afraid that _____.A. British people can't understand himB. American people can't understand himC. the grammar is too hard for himD. the spelling is too hard for him2. American English and British English are different in _____.A. spellingB. pronunciationC. grammarD. all of the above3. What is not mentioned in the passage?A. Whether there are differences between British English and American English.B. Whether British and American English are one language or twoC. How the differences between British English and American English came aboutD. How important the differences are4. Most _____ say “Do you have a watch”.A. British peopleB. AmericansC. childrenD. teachers5. According to the passage, British people and Americans have _____ difficulty in understanding each other.A. littleB. muchC. someD. greatPassage TwoHappiness is contagious, researchers reported on Thursday.People with the most social connections — spouses, friends, neighbors and relatives —were also the happiest, the data showed. “Each additional happy person makes you happier,” Christakis said.“Imagine that I am connected to you and you are connected to others and others are connected to still others. It is this fabric of humanity, like an Ameri can patch quilt.”Each person sits on a different colored patch. “Imagine that these patches are happy and unhappy patches. Your happiness depends on what is going on in the patch around you,” Christakis said.“It is not just happy people connecting with h appy people, which they do. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.”And happiness is more contagious than unhappiness, they discovered.“If a social contact is hap py, it increases the likelihood that you are happy by 15 percent,” Fowler said. “A friend of a friend, or the friend of a spouse or a sibling (兄弟姐妹), if they are happy, increases your chances by 10 percent,” he added.A happy third degree friend —the friend of a friend of a friend —increases a person’s chances of being happ y by 6 percent.“But every extra unhappy friend increases the likelihood that you’ll be unhappy by 7 percent” Fowler said.The finding is interesting and it is useful, too, Fowler said.“Among other benefits, happiness has been shown to have an important effect on reduced mortality (死亡率), pain reduction, and improved cardiac (心脏的) function. So better understanding of how happiness spreads can help us learn how to promote a healthier society,” he said.The study also fits in with other data suggested in 1984 that having $ 5,000 extra increased a person’s chances of becoming happier by about 2 percent.“A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000,” Christakis said.6. According to the research, your happiness ________.A. has nothing to do with your workmates or schoolmatesB. has something to do with anyone who has a close relationship with youC. depends on those who are in favour of you or are against youD. has little to do with what social connections you have7. The underlined word “contagious” in the first paragraph means ________.A. infectiousB. beautifulC. effectiveD. prior8. It can be inferred that________.A. happiness spreads as fast and widely as unhappinessB. unhappiness spreads faster and more widely than happinessC. happiness spreads faster and more widely than unhappinessD. the spread of unhappiness has not been studied by researchers9. Which of the following will increase your chances of becoming happier most?A. Being in a party with a happy atmosphere.B. A happy experience of your brother or your parents.C. A happy trip to a foreign country of your friends.D. Happiness of your friend’s friend.10. What does Christakis mean by saying “A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000” ?A. A happy friend can help you bring in a wealth of $20,000.B. A happy friend is a wealth which is worth about $20,000.C. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 2%.D. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 8%.Passage ThreeMost people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future-for example, getting into college or getting a good job-that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, do good things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.11. The best title of this passage is ________.A. The Secrets of HappinessB. Money Makes You HappyC. Ideas for Helping Other People to Be HappyD. Good Friends Make You Happy12. The second paragraph tells us that ________.A. the more friends you have, the happier you'll beB. we shouldn't think about our futureC. happiness is to enjoy the simple things in lifeD. some people fail to live a happy life13. The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four14. The writer thinks that ________.A. everyone knows how to live a happier lifeB. it's wrong to spend time on workC. hobbies take up too much timeD. doing good things for someone can make you happier15. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A. Reading a good book.B. Traveling to a foreign country.C. Playing a sport.D. Spending time with close friends.Passage FourSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that"reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible."Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that processis not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest (探索) for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children."When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.16. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that _______.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading17. The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.A. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable18. The word "scrutiny" in Para.3 most probably means " ________".A. inquiryB. observationC. controlD. suspicion19. According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when _______.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children's experience20. The main idea of the passage is that ______.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated than generally believedPart II Vocabulary and Structure(共40 小题,每小题1 分,共40 分)21.

A student can't answer the roll cal usingthe phone from any location other than the classroom.Students can, of course, still cheat the new system by leaving their phones with fellow classmates, but this is not very likely to happen, as people tend to keep alot of private information on their phones that they don't want to share with others.As for calling and data plans, the university covers the basic fee.

2021年江苏专转本(英语)真题试卷_6
2021年江苏专转本(英语)真题试卷一、1.1.After a day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to another. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move quickly ( although your eye-lids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep.A good title for this passage is______.A.SleepB.Good HealthC.DreamsD.Work and Rest2.The word drowsy in the last paragraph means______.A.sickB.asleepC.a little sleepyD.nosy3.This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you______.A.dream more oftenB.have poor healthC.nervousD.breathe quickly4.During REM, ______.A.your eyes move oftenB.you dreamC.you are restlessD.both A and B5.The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is______.A.approximately six hoursB.around ten hoursC.about eight hoursD.not stated here7.For years, children in the industrial areas of Europe and America seldom left their smoky cities to see the beauties of the countryside. This was not because the woods and fields were always far away, but because they were too far from the city to permit people to make a day trip between morning and nightfall.In 1970, a young German schoolmaster had an idea which changed this state of affairs. He decided to turn his little schoolhouse into a dormitory or hostel for the summer holidays. Anyone who brought his sleeping bag and cooking equipment along could stay there for a very small quantity of money. The idea was a success.A few years later, the schoolhouse was much too small to hold the many young people who wanted to stay there. As a result,a dormitory was set up in an old castle nearby. This was the first Youth Hostel.Today, young students and workers of every country can meet in the hostel and get to know each other. When young people arrive at the hostel, they have only to show their card of membership in a hostel organization in their own country. This card will permit him to use the facilities of hostels all over the world for very low prices.Often, at the evening meal, a group of boys and girls from various parts of the country or the world will happen to meet at the same hostel. They may put their food together and prepare a dinner with many kinds of dishes. Sometimes a program will be organized after the meal with dances, songs, or short talks followed by a question period. One can learn a lot of things about other places, just by meeting people who come from those places. For this reason, a few weeks spent hostelling can be just as useful a part of ones education as classes in school. The author says children in the city seldom went to the woods and fields becauseA.all these places were too far away for them to go between morning and nightfallB.it was impossible for them to go and get back in one dayC.they were not old enough to take such a tripD.they were not permitted to go to these places8.By saying His idea was a success , the author means______. A.the school master made a lot of money and got rich B.the school master became very famous among young students C.more and more young people went to the hostel for summer holidaysD.more and more young students came to study at his school 9.According to the passage, young people can pay less for their stay in the hostel ifA.they share their food with each otherB.they can prove they have joined the hostel organization C.they have brought enough equipment with themD.they can prove that they are from a foreign country10.In the authors opinion, young people can learn a lot during the days they spend hostelling because______.A.they meet a lot of people from different places B.they have such useful classes in the hostel as they dont have in schoolsC.they have more interesting activities than at school D.they are very much interested in life in the hostel11.Which do you think might be the proper title for this passage? A.Youth Organization.B.International Travel.C.Education Out of School.D.Summer Holidays.13.One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night.Advertising has been among Englands biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer.At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerance and stress factors. So they just go aheadand make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that it confers(给予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for—how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.Which of the following can best describe the authors attitude toward modern advertising?A.Indifferent.B.Shocked.C.Disappearing.D.Approving.14.According to the author, which is NOT the designers chief concern when he designs a product?A.Stress factors.B.Man-hours.C.Machine tolerance.D.Customer-appeal.15.It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a product customer-appeal areA.customersB.designersC.advertisersD.manufacturers16.According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, a manufacturer will choose to______.A.lower the production costB.hire a better designerC.improve its qualityD.alter its image17.The best title for the passage might be______.A.Advertising since the WarB.Advertising and ManufacturersC.Advertising—Englands Biggest IndustryD.Advertising and Purchasers19.All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we dont know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exacdy what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to go about getting it. Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard(调车场). All of the switches(转辙器) are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we cannot. There is no ambiguity if we can see the setting of a switch; we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events. When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our track many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fatesto consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will be followed. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the distant future of the universe because we______.A.have too many conflicting theoriesB.do not have enough funding to continue our research C.are not sure how the universe is put togetherD.have focused our investigations on the moon and planets20.What does the author see as the function of the universes unseen switches?A.They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.B.They enable us to alter the course of the universe. C.They give us information about the lunar surface. D.They determine which course the universe will take in the future.21.In the second paragraph, the word track could best be replaced by which of the following?A.Band.B.Rails.C.Path.D.Sequence.22.For whom is the author probably writing this passage?A.Train engineers.B.General audiences.C.Professors of statistics.D.Young children.23.Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?A.A statement illustrated by an analogy (类比)B.A hypothesis supported by documentation(引用文献)C.A comparison of two contrasting theories.D.A critical analysis of a common assumption.二、2.Vocabulary and Structure0.

Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by fourcomprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet. Passage OneQuestions 1~5 are besed on the following passage.Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to finding a partner, though matchmaking is still the most common way for boys to meet girls.Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American dollars by introducing suitable marriage partners to each other, but partners also play a role in the process during which young Koreans meet.In Confucius Korea, where marriage is regarded as more of a business contract than a sacred thing, the scene of the first meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the main hotels around Seoul.The business of continuing the family lineage (血统)and keeping the blooding pure is often too important to be left to romance and chance encounters. Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with her mother, from which her parents can tell if she is interested.For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk shows that she wants them to stay.Sometimes the matchmaking is not always so formal, with the introduction being made by friends.But whether through friends or families, there is hardly a Korean man in the country who has not gone through this process --- sometimes six or seven times. 1. The word “matchmaking” in the passage means ____. A.a very formal ritual(仪式)attended by boys and girlsB. introducing boys and girls to know each other for the purpose of marriageC. producing matches to make a fire or light a cigaretteD. arranging games between men and women2. The fact that the first meeting is repeated again and again in coffee shops in the main hotelssuggests that ____.A. Koreans like drinking coffee in coffee shops very muchB. menand women want to meet as many times as possible C. they are busy with communicating with different peopleD. marriage is seen as a business contract instead of something sacred3. Why does the matching still exist in Korea?A. Because most people want to keep the bloodlines pure and chance encounters romantic.B. Because most people try to avoid romance and keep the bloodlines pure.C. Because most people regard marriage as continuing family lineage and romance.D. Because most people try to break family lineage and bloodlines. 4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Almost every man or woman in Korea has to go through the matchmaking.B. From the signal the boy’s parents know whether their son is interested in the girl or not.C. At present young Koreans no longer need matchmaking to help them find partners.D. Only a girl and a boy will appear in the first arranged meeting. 5. The passage is mainly about____. A. the practice of matchmaking in Korea B. the importanceof a business contract C. the work of professional matchmakersD. the first meeting between men and women Passage TwoQuestions 6~10 are based on the following passage.In the university Jim was a fast-tracker. He made good grades with littleeffort, and hisclassmates thought of him “most likely to succeed”. After graduation, hejoined a large company and at first did well. However, he switched to severalsmaller companies where the same pattern developed time and again: well-liked,regarded as a fast-tracker. People wonder why he isn’t doing better.Then there was Tom who was always regarded as “average”. However, he sethis goals high, thenfound a way to achieve his goal. Today he owns a million-dollar company.Researchers have found that school performance is little related to job performance. Qualities like “steady and dependable” and “practical andorganized” are more important. “You don’t need talent to succeed”,insist some experts. “All you need is a big pot of glue (胶水). You put someon your chair, you sit down, and you stick to every project until you’ve donethe best you can do.” Av erage achievers stay glued to their chairs andpostpone pleasure so they can receive future benefits. Many fast-trackers, onthe other hand, expect too much too soon. When rewards don’t materializeinstantly, they may become disappointed and unhappy. 6.

A proper title for the passage can be ____. A. The magic of Glue B. The Way to SuccessC. Why Talented People Often Succeed QuicklyD. How average Achievers Do Better than Others Passage ThreeQuestions 11~15 are based on the following passage.From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget oursurroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in hand we need never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because theyresemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they represent unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, but friends we make in books need never weary us with their company. By turning the pages we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy and encouragement.One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay for our way, no airship or ocean liner or streamlined train to transport us, no passport to enter the land of our heart’s desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains or cross thescorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. Thebeauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture, the marvels of engineering, are all open to thewonder and enjoyment of those who read. 11. The main idea in the first paragraph is ____.A. pleasure can only be derived from reading good booksB. a good book may distract our attentionC. people can read good books in different waysD. enjoyment and satisfaction can be derived from reading good books12. The main reason that people like their acquaintances in books is ____.A. they are like human friends exactlyB. they never bore us in comparison with our human friendsC. they never hurt our feelingsD. they give human beings friendship, sympathy and encouragement 13. We forget our surroundings and even our identity because ____.A. the reading environment is very goodB. the book is extremely interesting and attractiveC. we arealone and no one interrupts usD. we are asked to return the book the second day 14. Which of the following is NOT true?A. All of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books.B.We can travel by book free of charge to our heart’s content.C. We should rely on reading to escape from the seemingly dull realitiesof everyday life. D. Valuable experiences can be obtained from reading good books. 15. “The whole world is ours for the asking” implies that____. A. the world is more accessible in books than in reality B. the world is easy to travel around as long as we walk C. the worldbelongs to us whenever we ask D. round-world trips can be made by everyonePassage Four(非英语专业做)Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Increasingly over the past ten years, people --- especially young people --- have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because muchof the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods whichdo not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.Natural foods, for example, include vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of whichis to increase the amount --- but not the quality --- of foods grown in commercial farming areas. Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this withwhat happens in the mass production of poultry: there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an importantpart of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. Itis interesting to note that in countries where the national diet containslarge quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables, certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis placed on the eating of whole mealbread and more vegetables by modern experts on “healthy eating”.16. People have become more interested in natural foods because ____.A. they like changing their diet from time to timeB. they want to eat food that is more deliciousC. much of the food they eat is no longer considered to be healthyD. they want to be fashionable17. Soil that is rich in organic matter ____. A. has nothing nutritious added to itB. is essential for producing fruit and vegetablesC. containsunused vegetable matterD. has had chemicals and fertilizers added to it18. According to the author, the use of chemicals and fertilizers ____.A. will not necessarily increase the production of foodsB. is a goodway to improve the quality of foodsC. promotes the foods both in quality and in quantityD. is no goodfor health19. Chickens can be called “natural foods” only when ____. A.they are deliciousB. they are fed on food little better than rubbishC. they lay eggsrich in vitamins every dayD. they are allowed to move about and eat freely20. Which of the following is considered good for healthy eating? A. Unrefined flour and vegetables. B. White bread and honey.C. Canned beans and fruits.D. Mass-produced chickensand eggsPassage Four(英语专业必做)Questions 16~20 are based on the followlng passage.Drunken driving-sometimes called America's socially accepted form of murderhas become a national epidemic. Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past decade.Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American macho(男子汉)image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken slaughter has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially involving your children, that public opinion is no longer so tolerant.Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trendin the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the numberof people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21.Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effectunless accompanied by educational programs to help young people todevelop“responsible attitude”about drinking and teach them to resist peerpleasure to drink. New laws have led to increased arrests and tests inmany areas already, to a marked decline in fatalities. Some states are also penalizing bars for serving customers too many drinks. A tavern(酒栈) in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more brandies to a customer whowas“obviously intoxicated”and later drove off the road, killing a nine-year-old boy.As the fatalities continue to occur daily in every state, some Americansare even beginning to think well of the 13 years of national prohibition ofalcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the \drinking, but encouraged political corruption and organized crime. As with the becoming drug trade, there is no easy solution.16. Drunken driving has become a serious problem in America because ____.A. most drunken drivers drive their cars at top speedB. most drivers regard heavy drinking are part of the American macho imageC. fatalities caused by drunken driving have been greatly increased感谢您的阅读,祝您生活愉快。

Words and FeelingsB. Words,Gestures and FeelingsC. Gestures and FeelingsD. Culture and UnderstandingPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage .The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are “copper〞 and “bobby〞. The first name comes form the verb “to cop〞 ( which is also slang ) , meaning “to take〞or“to capture〞 , and the second comes form the first name of Sir Robert Peel , a 19th century politician , who was the founder of the police force as we know it today . An early nickname for the policeman was “peeler〞 , but this one has died out .Whatever we may call them , the general opinion of the police seems to be a favorable one , except , of course , among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more derogatory nicknames which originated inAmerica , such as “fuzz〞or “pig〞 . Visitors to England seem to be very impressed by the English police . It has , in fact , because standing joke that the visitor to Britain , when asked for his views of the country , will always say , at some point or other , “I think your policemen are wonderful〞.Well , the British bobby not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character . A music-hall song of some years ago was called “If You Want To Know The Time , Ask A Policeman 〞 . Nowadays , most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policeman . In London , the policeman spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else .Two things are immediately noticeable to the stranger when he sees an English policeman for the first time . The first is that does not carry a pistol and the second is that he wears a very distinctive type of headgear , the policeman’s helmet . His helmet , together with his height , enables an English policeman to be time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a pistol and than his helmet should be taken form him , but both suggestions are resisted by the majority of the public and the police themselves .6. Nowadays British people call the policeman________.A.pigB.peelerC.bobbyD.fuzz7.Which of following statements is TRUE?A.There are fewer criminals in America than in Britain .B.B.The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors .C.The English bobby is friendly but not helpful .D.The English police enjoy having pistols .8.If you see an English policeman for the first time , you will probably notice at once that_______.A.he often tells people time C.he has a helmet on the headB.he is usually very helpful D.he wears special clothes9.That an English policeman can be seen form some distance is______.A.a standing jokeB.of no helpD.of some helpC.strange and funny10.Visitors praise the English police because______.A.they are police and helpful C.they often give thanksB.they obey ordersD.they are armed with modern equipmentPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage .It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory . The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions , the bases for the decisions we make , and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences , which are brought into the present by memory .Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for latter for later use . It not only includes “remembering〞things like arithmetic or historical facts but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves . Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile . Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat .Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines . Computers , for example , contain devices for storing data for later use . It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being . The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words〞—ready for instant use . An average American teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English . However , this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored . Consider , for example , the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight .The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence of human beings . A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words .11.According to the passage , memory is considered to be________.A.the basis for decision making and problem solvingB.the ability to store information for future useC.an intelligence typically possessed by human beingsD.the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words12.The comparison between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that______.A puter’s memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager’sB puter’s memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being’sC puter’s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenager’sD puter’s memory capacity is the same as a teenager’s13.It is implied in the passage that______.A.only human beings have problem-solving intelligenceB.a person’s memory is different from a computer’s in every respectC.animals can solve very simple problemsD.animals solve problems by instinct rather than intelligence14.The phrase “in term of〞in the last sentence can be best replaced by “______〞 .A.in connection with C.consistingB.expressed by D.by means of15.The main idea of the passage is________.A.what life would be like without memoryB.memory is of vital importance to lifeC.how a person’s memory is different form an animal’s or a computer’sD.what memory carriesPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage .Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people . A great deal of communication is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech . If we travel in buses , buy thing in shops , or eat in restaurants , we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions , receive news or comment ,and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society .Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society . Two things , above others , have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry . Firstly , inventiveness has led to advances in printing , telecommunications , photography , radio and television . Secondly , speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news , which itself is often almost eclipsed〔黯然失色〕by international news .No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority . In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate , but today there are public libraries . Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema , but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme the is being channeled into millions of homes .Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information . The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information ,education and entertainment .The printing , broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing , educating and entertaining .Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part , the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse . However , the mass media are with us for better or for worse , and there is no turning back .16.The first paragraph emphasizes the ______ of face-to-face contact in social settings .efulnessB.limitationC.natureD.creativity17.The development of the communication industry in contemporary society results form ______.A.the advances and revolutions C.the art of mass communicationB.the inventiveness and speed D.the advances and speed18.It is implied in the passage that _______ .A.local news still takes a significant placeB.National news is becoming more popularC.Local news used to be the main source of informationD.International news is the fastest transmitted news19.Which of the following statements is NOT true ?A.Public libraries have replaced private libraries .B.To possess information used to be a privilege .C munication means more than transmission .D munication influences the way of life and thinking .20.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the writer is______.A.concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaB.happy about the drastic changes in the mass mediaC.pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD.Indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass mediaPart II Vocabulary and Structure〔共40 小题,每题1 分,共40 分〕Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part .

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. The fall of the consumption of meatB. The increase of the consumption of rice and pastsC. The rise of the consumption of poultryD. The eating of traditional meals13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. People prefer canned fish and shellfish to fresh white fish.B. People like fresh white fish better than canned fish and shellfish.C. It is evident that fresh white fish is eaten more than canned fish and shellfish.D. Fish consumption increases the intake of fibre.14. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The consumption of meat has declined.B. Skimmed milk consumption is popular now.C. Butter is now not often used in cookingD. Chicken is consumed less than other meat.15.

ClozeMany teachers believe that the responsibility (责任,职责) for learning lies with the student. 36 a long reading assignment is given, teachers expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading. The 37 student is considered to be one who learns for the sake of 38 , not the one interested only in getting high grades. Sometimes homework is returned 39 brief written comments but without a grade. Even if a grade is not given, the student is 40 for learning the material assigned.

2021年江苏专转本(英语)真题试卷_3
2021年江苏专转本(英语)真题试卷一、1.1.Vegetable gardening is the relaxing art and science of turning a love for growing plants into a meaningful activity. Having vegetables in the backyard makes home gardening appealing for many people. In addition, vegetable gardening provides exercise and fun for both urban and suburban families. 〔Vegetable gardeners agree that many home-grown vegetables are superior to those purchased from markets. 〕 From spring through late fall, a well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables, thus increasing the nutrition of the family diet.Freezers make it possible to keep some of the vegetables to be enjoyed at a later date. Other vegetables can be stored for a few months in a cool area.Although the money spent for a garden may be little, one cannot escape the fact that gardening requires hard work and time. Many of the gardening tasks must be performed at times that are most inconvenient. Not doing jobs that should be done on a regular basis may result in failure and a negative feeling toward gardening.〔One should not plant a garden that is too large for him to care for〕. A small, well-kept garden is more enjoyable and profitable than a large neglected one. Vegetables do well in full sunlight and need at least five or six hours of sun during the middle of the day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables. If possible, the garden should be near the house, so the gardener can work in it whenever they are free. Soils for vegetables should be easily broken up and porous (多孔的) for quick water drainage and good aeration(透气). Usually the home owner has little choice in the type he can choose. Fortunately, many vegetables can be grown on poor soils if the soils are properly prepared.Many people find home gardening______.A.expensive and boringB.interesting and enjoyableC.time consuming and inconvenientD.neither interesting nor enjoyable2.A well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables______.A.all year roundB.whenever you need nutritious foodC.for a greater part of the yearD.throughout spring3.The amount of money you spend on your garden______.A.can be largeB.must be largeC.can not be largeD.must not be small4.Which of the following statements is true?A.Vegetables need to have as much shading as possible. B.A small garden is much better than a large one. C.Homeowners can freely choose the soil for their vegetable garden.D.Whenever possible, the vegetable garden should be close to your home.5.From the passage we can conclude that______.A.vegetables need little care while growing B.vegetables can be grown on almost any kind of soil C.vegetable gardening is an indispensable part of life for urban and suburban peopleD.vegetable gardening is a good pastime for retired people 7.In old days, when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something so shocking as to distract the serious work of an office, secretaries were men.Then came the First World War and the male secretaries were replaced by women. A mans secretary became his personal servant, in charge of remembering his wifes birthday and buying her presents; taking his suits to the dry-cleaners; telling lies on the telephone to keep away people he did not wish to speak to; and, of course, typing and filing and taking shorthand. Now all this may be changing again. The microchip(芯片) and high technology is sweeping the British office, taking with it much of the routine clerical(文书的) work that secretaries did. Once office technology takes over generally, the status of the job will rise again because it will involve the high-tech work and then men will want to do it again.That was said by one of the executives(male) of one of the biggest secretarial agencies in this country. What he has predicted is already under way in the U. S.Once high technology has made the job of secretary less routine (乏味的) , will there be a male takeover? Men should be careful of thinking that they can walk right into the better jobs.〔There are a lot of women secretaries who will do the job as well as men〕—not just because they can buy negligees(妇女长睡衣) for the bosss wife, but because they are as efficient and well trained to cope with word processors and computers as men.Before 1914 female secretaries were rare because they______. A.were less efficient and less trained than men B.were looked down upon by menC.would have disturbed the other office workersD.wore stockings and were not as serious as men8.A female secretary has been expected, besides other duties, to______.A.be her bosss memoryB.do everything her boss asks her to doC.clean her bosss clothesD.telephone the bosss wife9.Secretaries, until recently, had to do a lot of work now done by______.A.machinesB.other staffC.servantsD.wives10.A secretary in the future will______.A.have more work to doB.be better paidC.have higher statusD.have less work to do11.The writer believes that before long______.A.both men and women can act as secretariesB.men will be better than machinesC.men will take over womens jobs as secretariesD.women will operate most office machines13.Humanity is a new experiment on planet Earth. For most of its history, life on Earth was restricted to the sea. Living things began to populate the land slightly over 400 million years ago. And humans have existed for no more than 3 million years.One way to represent the evolution of life is to compress the 4. 6-billion-year history of Earth into a 1-year-long film. In such a film, Earth forms as the film begins on January 1, andthrough all of January and February it cools and is cratered(变成坑状) and the first oceans form. 〔But those oceans remain lifeless until sometime in March or early April, when the first living things develop〕. The 4-billion-year history of Precambrian (前寒武纪) evolution lasts until the film reaches mid-November, when primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organisms such as trilobites(三叶虫).If we examine the land instead of the oceans, we find a lifeless waste. But once our film shows plant and animal life on the land, about November 28, evolution proceeds rapidly. Dinosaurs, for example, appear on about December 12 and vanish by Christmas Eve, as mammals (哺乳动物) and birds flourish.Throughout the 1 -year-run of our film there are no humans, and even during the last days of the year as the mammals rise and dominate the landscape, there are no people. On the early evening of December 31, vaguely human forms move through the grasslands, and by late evening they begin making stone tools. The Stone Age lasts until about 11:45 p. m. , and the first signs of civilization, towns and cities, do not appear until 11:54 p. m. The Christian era begins only 14 seconds before the New Year, and the Declaration of Independence is signed with one second to spare.In comparing all of Earths geological evolution to one calendar year, the author showsA.just how recently humanity has arrived on the scene B.just how simple it is to understand the history of Earth C.just how early humanity appears on planet EarthD.just how difficult it is to understand the history of Earth 14.According to the passage, primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organismsA.in the middle of DecemberB.when Earth is crateredC.at the beginning of NovemberD.when the land is still a lifeless waste15.It is indicated in the passage that______.A.Earth is cool at firstB.Earth is hot at the beginningC.there are oceans at the beginningD.there is life in the ocean in late February16.In the 1-year-long film dinosaurs______.A.die out on December 25B.appear after December 25C.die out on December 24D.appear on December 2417.In the compressed history of Earth the Declaration of Independence is signed______.A.a long time before the New YearB.immediately after the New Years DayC.just one second before the New YearD.right on the New Years Day19.Internet-addicted job seekers may be partly the cause of the fact that it is taking the unemployed 23% longer to find a new position than it took during the last recession (经济萧条) , when the benefits of online job searching were unavailable. A growing number of unemployed Americans waste time browsing(浏览) the estimated 4,000 to 5 ,000 online job sites, filling them with resumes, and then waiting for replies. It is common for long-time joblessness, argues Professor John A. Challenger. Although the Internet has the potential to be very useful for job seekers and it has become the primary tool for many, Challenger believes that it should be considered secondary to the traditional technique of meeting would beemployers in person.In addition to slowing job search efforts, the Internet is making the hiring process longer for the employer. In a survey of 5,000 hiring managers by an online resume site, 72% said that a majority of the resumes they received in response to an online job posting did not match the positions description.The more unrelated resumes managers have to go through in order to select the few to bring in for interviews, the longer it takes to fill the position, points out Challenger.

Some people don't like American-style food. They think it is often less tasty and sometimes less nutritious than food in other countries. Americans spend nearly half their food dollars on meals away from home. They eat more "fast food", such as hamburgers, hot dogs, pizzas, canned and frozen food, for fast food takes a short time to prepare. Often, Americans feel they are too busy to spend a lot of time cooking. It's easier to pick up a pack of fried chicken on the way home from work or take the famlily out for pizzas or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long, hard day.Of course, in some other countries, like France, cooking is still an "art form". Some people believe that French cuisine is the best in the world. Certainly, each person has a different opinion, about which country has the tastiest food. But people in many places agree that French food is the most delicious and the best prepared.1. The main idea of this passage is that___d_.A. American food is less delicious than food in other countriesB. people in many countries prefer Chinese foodC. it's interesting to compare a variety of food in different countriesD. people enjoy different kinds of food in the world2.

South American food is not so spicy as Indian foodD. the most wonderful food comes from Eastern countries3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? ___c_.A.

American food is believed to be the most difficult to cook4. Americans eat a lot of "fast food" because__d__.A. they believe American food is the bestB.

Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? __c__.A. Chinese-style vegetables are often cooked for a short timeB. American food is often believed to be less tastyC. Everyone in the world dislikes Indian foodD.

And not just any cell phone - the iPhone 3G.According to Asiajin, about 550 students and staff members in the School of Sociallnformatics at Tokyo-based university Aoyama Gakuin received the iPhone 3G for free aspart of their study materials.This is the result of a deal that Aoyama Gakuin signed with SoftBank, the only sales representative of the iPhone in Japan. The number of students using theiPhone is expected to reach about l,000. This is the first time a particular cell phone has been used on such a huge scale at a Japanese university.(许多学生用这部苹果手机的需求(达到)1000,第一次一个特别的手机已经被大量运用在日本大学)The phone will work as a study tool for students. As it comes with the global positioning system (GPS), the university plans to use it to check student attendance. Dropping classes is a big problem in Japan, where regular attendance is an important factor in determining a student's grade. Students often fake attendance by getting classmates to answer roll calls.Now, with the iPhone 3G, the school plans to keep better tabs on (监控) its students. Students are allowed to use the phone for attendance reporting (but only if they are actually in the classroom, a fact that will be proved by the phone's GPS), lecture podcasting, and online examinations. A student can't answer the roll call using the phone from any location other than the classroom.Students can, of course, still cheat the new system by leaving their phones with fellow classmates, but this is not very likely to happen, as people tend to keep a lot of private information on their phones that they don't want to share withothers.As for calling and data plans, the university covers the basic fee. The hardware itself is free, but students will have to pay when they exceed downloading limits.6. According to the passage, American children are _a_(B)__at school.A. encouraged to use cell phonesB. not encouraged to use cell phonesC. offered a new type of free cell phonesD. allowed to use free cell phones7.

The following functions of the iPhone 3G are mentioned in the text EXCEPT__b_(D)_.A. attendance reportingB. lecture podcastingC. online examinationsD. downloading payment10. This passage is mainly about __b_(A)_.A. the uses of the iPhone 3G at a Japanese universityB. the advantages of the iPhone 3G in Japanese universitiesC. the control of dropping classes in a Japanese schoolD. the use of GPS to locate students at schoolPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Coco Chanel, a French woman, is very famous for her success in the fashion world. The life of Coco Chanel is a classic rags-to-riches story. Born in 1883, she was abandoned by her father after her mother died. She was raised by her aunts who taught her to sew and gave her the nickname Coco, which means "little pet".Starting out as a hat designer, Coco went against the fancy hats being worm at the time. "How can a brain function under those things," she wondered. Instead, she created simple, but beautiful designs which became popular with fashionable young women of Paris.Strangely enough, World War I gave her the chance to develop her idea of simple elegance from hats to clothing. Due to the shortage of material during the war, she took the opportunity to show that less can truly be more, introducing turtle-neck (叠领)sweater and pants for women.(由于战争期间对材料的短缺,她抓住这个机会展示少的东西可以创造更多,(引进)为女人们介绍叠领穿着着和帽子(女士短裤)In 1923, Coco launched her line of perfumes. "A woman who does not wear perfume has no future!" she said, and women believed her. Since its first appearance, Chanel No. 5 has been the world's most popular perfume, with another bottle being sold every 30 seconds. And Coco herself inspired generations of women designers and businesswomen to pursue their dreams.11. The world famous brand "Chanel" is named after_d___.A. a little animalB. a hat companyC. the nickname of a French womanD. the surname of a French girl12.

The launch of Chanel perfumes is based on the belief that_a___.A. a woman who does not wear perfume has no futureB. it will be the world's most popular perfumeC. it will be sold every 30 secondsD. women are fond of all kinds of perfumes15. Coco Chanel's success story tells us that_c___.A. becoming rich is not so difficultB. women are more likely to succeedC. people can pursue their dreamsD. the poor are more likely to succeedPassage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Everyone knows that laziness is not good. We have probably all bad lectures telling that laziness is immoral, that it is wasteful, and that lazy people will never gain anything in life. But laziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complex reasons. Some people who appear to be lazy are suffering from much more serious problems. They may not trust their fellow workers and they are unable to join in any group task for fear of being laughed at or for fear of having their ideas stolen. (他们不信任在一起的他们的工人,和他们不能够加入集体任务因为担心被嘲笑或海派他们的主意被利用剽窃)These people who seem lazy may be affected by a fear of failure that prevents successful work. Some people are so busy planning great deals that they are unable to deal with "easier" work on hand.Still others are not avoiding work。
