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.

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 has happened since the invention of the Internet and email?A. people are talking on the phone more than ever.B. Interaction through the computer has replaced a lot of person to person interaction.C. Americans are turning into hermits.D. Sixty million Americans have bought computers.15. 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.

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. Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the table was eating.

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. A very tired soldier can sometimes 80 asleep (brain sleep) and keep on marching, because his body is not asleep.61. A. across B. away C. along D. over62. A. more B. much C. least D. little63.

江苏2024专升本英语考试真题加答案全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇1江苏2024专升本英语考试真题加答案Section A: Reading ComprehensionRead the following passage and answer the questions.One of the most common complaints heard by teachers is that students lack critical thinking skills. Critical thinking is the ability to think clearly and rationally, understanding the logical connection between ideas. It involves reflective and independent thinking, evaluating arguments and evidence to reach awell-founded conclusion.In today's fast-paced and information-rich world, critical thinking skills are more important than ever before. It is not enough for students to memorize facts and figures; they must also be able to analyze and interpret them. Critical thinking allows individuals to make informed decisions, solve problems creatively, and communicate effectively.Despite its importance, critical thinking is not often explicitly taught in schools. Instead, students are often taught to memorize information and regurgitate it on exams. This approach does little to develop critical thinking skills, as students are not encouraged to question, analyze, or evaluate the information they are learning.To address this gap, educators must incorporate critical thinking skills into their teaching practices. This can be done through activities that encourage students to think independently, analyze evidence, and draw logical conclusions. For example, teachers can ask students to evaluate a persuasive argument, identify logical fallacies, or analyze data to make informed decisions.By teaching critical thinking skills, educators can help students become more thoughtful and engaged learners. In a rapidly changing world, the ability to think critically is a valuable skill that will serve students well in their academic and professional careers.Questions:1. What is critical thinking?2. Why are critical thinking skills important in today's world?3. How can educators incorporate critical thinking skills into their teaching practices?Answers:1. Critical thinking is the ability to think clearly and rationally, understanding the logical connection between ideas. It involves reflective and independent thinking, evaluating arguments and evidence to reach a well-founded conclusion.2. Critical thinking skills are important in today's world because they allow individuals to make informed decisions, solve problems creatively, and communicate effectively. In afast-paced and information-rich world, critical thinking skills are essential for success.3. Educators can incorporate critical thinking skills into their teaching practices by using activities that encourage students to think independently, analyze evidence, and draw logical conclusions. For example, teachers can ask students to evaluate a persuasive argument, identify logical fallacies, or analyze data to make informed decisions.Section B: WritingWrite an essay on the following topic:"Is technology making us more alone?"In your essay, consider the following questions:- How has technology changed the way we communicate with others?- Are social media and smartphones making us more isolated?- What steps can individuals take to maintain meaningful relationships in the digital age?Your essay should be approximately 500 words long.Answer:In today's digital age, technology has transformed the way we communicate with others. With the rise of social media and smartphones, it is easier than ever to stay connected with friends and family. However, some argue that technology is making us more isolated and alone.Technology has undoubtedly changed the way we communicate with others. With the click of a button, we can send a message to someone on the other side of the world. Social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram allow us to share updates about our lives with hundreds of friends and followers. Smartphones have made it possible to stay connected 24/7, with instant access to email, texts, and social media notifications.While technology has made it easier to stay in touch with others, it has also led to concerns about isolation and loneliness. Studies have shown that excessive use of social media can lead to feelings of loneliness and depression. Instead of engaging in face-to-face interactions, many people prefer to communicate through screens, leading to a lack of meaningful connections.To combat the negative effects of technology on our relationships, individuals can take steps to maintain meaningful connections in the digital age. One way to do this is to limit screen time and prioritize face-to-face interactions. By spending time with friends and family in person, we can strengthen our relationships and deepen our connections.Additionally, individuals can use technology in a positive way to enhance their relationships. For example, instead of mindlessly scrolling through social media, we can use video calls to stay connected with loved ones who are far away. Technology can be a tool to facilitate communication, but it is important to strike a balance between online and offline interactions.In conclusion, technology has changed the way we communicate with others, but it is up to individuals to maintain meaningful relationships in the digital age. By prioritizingface-to-face interactions and using technology in a positive way, we can combat feelings of isolation and loneliness.This concludes the Jiangsu 2024 Specialized Undergraduate English Exam with Reading Comprehension and Writing sections.篇2Jiangsu 2024 Adult Education College English Exam Questions and AnswersSection A: Reading ComprehensionRead the following passage and answer the questions below.In recent years, the concept of sustainable development has gained increasing attention worldwide.

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. She told her classmates abo ut some disasters in history”,Beverly Goodman就自己喜欢的话题:灾难,做了一些系列的演讲,她给她的同学讲述了许多有关历史上的灾难。

Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.When Beverly Goodman was in elementary school, she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic: disasters. She told her classmates about some disasters in history, for instance, the Titanic. Today, at 45, she’s a marine geoarchaeologist (地理考古学家) who explores coastlines for clues to erosion, past tsunamis (海啸), and other disasters. “It’s funny 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 t he 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 effectthis 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.英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第1页(共10页)1.When Goodman was a little girl, she might be interested in ______.A. landscapesB. art and literatureC. science and technologyD. disasters in history2. According to the passage, her present job ______.A. is a disaster for herB. is well-known to ordinary peopleC. is closely related to her childhood interestD. has nothing to do with her childhood hobbies3. It can be learned from Paragraph Two that ______.A. where there is water, there are human beingsB. people usually settled down along watersC. people prefer to live in mountains areasD. people prefer to live along grasslands4. According to Goodman, which of the following in true?A. People need to pay more attention to coastline researchB. People show little interest in coastlines.C. People have no knowledge about coastlines.D. People have no written records about coastlines.5. The best title of this passage could be “______”.A. The Changes of the WorldB. The Coastal LandscapeC. Life Style of Ancient AncestorsD. Goodman's Underwater ResearchPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.One of the most common reasons why people don't succeed at introducing a permanent exercise habit in their lives is because their workouts are boring. They do the same things over and over again, and even if they work in the beginning, the body quickly adapts to them and stops responding to them in the same way as in the beginning.When the effectiveness drops down and a person gets tired of doing the same thing, the outcome is predictable: you no longer want to work out any more.That’s why I’m so strongly against any kind of structured fitness classes at the gym that you attend because you think it’s the only way to exercise.Seek something enjoyable and exciting that won’t feel like dreadful exercise. if you can't find it, keep looking until you do. Ultimately, it’s the only way to successfully maintain an exercise habit in your life.英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第2页(共10页)However, please note that even if you're doing something exciting, no matter how fantastic it is in the beginning, if you d on’t change your routine every now and then, it also might get boring. Mixing it up every now and then by focusing on a different aspect of the activity, doing it in a different place, with different intensity or with different people will boost your excitement, shock your body, and ensure that you’ll stick to physical activity for the long haul.6. Why do people fail to develop a good exercise habit? Because ______.A. people usually get bored of the same exerciseB. the exercises are tough to performC. people are too busy with their workD. there are lots of interesting exercises7. What might happen if people do the same exercise too many times?A. They might get excited.B. They might stop doing it.C. They might easily get hungry.D. They might lose their temper.8. The author’s attitude toward structured fitness classes is ______.A. supportiveB. appreciativeC. neutralD. negative9. According to the passage, which of the following helps develop a lifetime exercise habit?A. Attending gym classes.B. Joining a sports club.C. Keeping notes of your exercises.D. Trying enjoyable and exciting exercises.10. If you would like to keep a routine exercise lifelong, you’d better NOT ______.A. do it in a different place.B. do it on a regular basis.C. do it with different intensity.D. do it with different people.P assage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Everyone knows that the average human body temperature is 37℃- but everyone is wrong. It turns out that the bodies of people in the US have been cooling since the 1860s.Physicians studying body temperature have known for decades that 37℃was too high,says Julie Parsonnet at Stanford University in California, “But they've always thought that it was just measurement error in the past, not because temperature had actually dropped.”To find out what really happened, Parsonnet and her team combined three data sets. The first set covered nearly 24,000 Union Army veterans (老兵) from the American Civil War, whose temperatures were measured between 1860 and 1940. The other two ranged from 1971 to l975 and from 2007 to 2017. In total, the team analyzed more than 677,000 temperature measurements.英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第3页(共10页)On average, American body temperature has declined by 0.03°C per decade. Body temperatures of men born in the early 19th century were 0.59°C higher than those of men today.Women’s average temperature has dropped by 0.32°C compared with that of women born in the 1890s.That means average body temperature today is about 36.6°C, not 37°C as widely thought.The change isn’t simply the result of older thermometers(温度计) being unreliable. We know this because the cooling trend is visible within the more modern data sets, in which the thermometers were probably more accurate.“The most likely explanation in my view is that, microbiologically, we’re very different peop le than we were,”says Parsonnet. People have fewer infections, thanks to vaccines and antibiotics, so our immune systems are less active and our body tissues less inflamed (发炎).11. The average human body temperature has been ______since the 1860s.A. risingB. droppingC. turning upD. narrowing down12. The word “it” (Line 2, Para. 2) refers to the fact that ______.A. 37℃was too highB. 37℃was too lowC. 37℃was irregularD. 37℃was regular13. According to Parsonnet and her team’s research, which of the following is NOT true?A. Body temperatures of men born in the early 19th century were 0.59°C higher than those men of today.B. Women’s average temperature has fallen by 0.32°C compared with that of women born in the 1890s.C. US body temperature has declined by 0.03°C for decades on average.D. The average body temperature today is lower than 37°C.14. It is less likely for people to get infected because of ______.A. climate changesB. environment pollutionC. vaccines and antibioticsD. better thermometers15. It could be concluded from the passage that ______.A. we are getting cooler as body temperature fallsB. we are getting warmer as body temperature fallsC. we are getting cooler as body temperature risesD. we are getting warmer as body temperature rises英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第4页(共10页)Passage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Being a female tree is hard.A study of a species that can change sex has revealed that most striped maple trees die while female.“We had a suspicion they were changing sex, which is relatively rare among plants.” says Jemnifer Blake-Mahmud at Princeton University. Between 2014 and 2017, she and Lena Struwe at Rutgers University in New Jersey observed the lifecycle s of 457 striped maples in New Jersey, recording their health, diameter and whether they had female or male flowers each spring.They found that 54 percent of the trees changed sex during that time, and one fourth of those did so at least twice. A model based on these findings showed that, contrary to previous suggestions, healthy trees were more likely to be male and a tree's size doesn't influence its sex.The growth rate of trees that remained female for many years declined. Of the trees that died, 75 percent had recently produced female flowers. “It's remarkable,” says Blake- Mahmud. “When I see a tree that's dead and I look back in my datasheet, it was almost always female the year before.”It isn't clear why this is the case. It could be that female trees need more nutrients because they produce seeds, and it may increase the death rate of female trees, she says.But it could also be that dying trees become female as a last effort to create offspring and pass their genes on to the next generation.“These populations have a lot more male trees than female trees in general, so just by luck, a female has a better chance of being a parent of the next generation than a male,” says Blake-Mahmud. “If you're going to die anyway, then being female is the way to go. That would make more evolutionary sense.”16. Which factor mentioned in the passage does NOT influence the striped maple trees' sex?A. Health.B. SizeC. Season.D. Age.17. The word“declined”(Line l, Para. 4) is closest in meaning to ______.A. got worseB. died awayC. went downD. wore out18. Female maple trees need more nutrients because______.A. they create offspringB. they change their sexC. they are less healthyD. there are fewer female trees英语试题卷(非英语类专业)第5页(共10页)19.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Healthy maple trees are more likely to be female.B. Dying maple trees are more likely to be male.C. Female maple trees are less likely to be parents.D. Sex changing could be the natural life process of the maple trees.20.What's the best title of the passage?A. Female Maple Trees More Likely to Die.B. A Contrast of Female and Male Maple Trees.C. Relationships between Female and Male Maple Trees.D. Differences between Female and Male Maple Trees.PartⅡVocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE that best completes the sentence. Then mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.单选题分析:单选有结构(语法类别):2020年真题词汇考题比往年多,语法单选题基本是往年常考题,有一定的模式可寻,属于结构类别的比较多。

20江苏专升本英语试题及答案

20江苏专升本英语试题及答案一、阅读理解(共20分)1. 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

In the past, it was believed that the Earth was the center of the universe. This view, known as the geocentric model, was widely accepted until the 16th century when the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus proposed a new model. According to Copernicus, the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the universe. This heliocentric model was later supported by the observations of Galileo Galilei and the laws of planetary motion formulated by Johannes Kepler.The geocentric model was based on the idea that the Earth was stationary and all other celestial bodies, including the Sun, revolved around it. This belief was reinforced by the fact that the Earth's motion could not be detected by the naked eye. However, Copernicus argued that the Earth, along with other planets, revolved around the Sun. This idea was revolutionary at the time and challenged the established religious and scientific beliefs.Galileo's observations through his telescope provided evidence that supported the heliocentric model. He observed the phases of Venus, which could only be explained if Venus orbited the Sun, and the mountains on the Moon, which indicated that the Moon was not a perfect sphere as previously thought. Kepler's laws of planetary motion further supported the heliocentric model by describing the elliptical orbits of the planets around the Sun.The acceptance of the heliocentric model marked a significant shift in the understanding of the universe and laid the foundation for modern astronomy.问题:(1) What was the geocentric model based on?A. The belief that the Sun was the center of the universe.B. The belief that the Earth was stationary and other celestial bodies revolved around it.C. The belief that the Earth revolved around the Sun.D. The belief that the Earth was the center of the universe and moved.答案:B(2) Who first proposed the heliocentric model?A. Galileo GalileiB.

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. Don't give up.1.If you want to improve your reading ability, you should .A. read each word in the passage carefullyB. read with choice, purpose and confidenceC. start at the first wordD. read a passage completely from the beginning to the end2.The best title of the passage might be “”.A. How to Improve Your Reading AbilityB. How to Cultivate Good Habits in ReadingC. Developing Reading MethodsD. Getting Rid of Your Bad Habits While Reading3.Best reading efficiency can be achieved if one .A. reads paragraph by paragraphB. reads in great detailC. reads with focusD. reads as fast as possible4.According to the author, all the following are the bad habits in reading EXCEPT.A. moving the lipsB. pointing at words with somethingC. holding a book in handsD. turning the head from side to side5.The phrase "looking over his shoulder" in Paragraph 3 may best be replaced by “”.A. watching himB. examining his shoulderC. encouraging himD. looking at someone behind himPassage TwoOur memories can be both sweet and bitter. 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.

2022年江苏省五年制专转本考试英语真题(试卷+答案)精选全文

精选全文完整版(可编辑修改)江苏省2022年五年一贯制高职“专转本”考试英语统考试卷Part I Reading Comprehension(本题共15小题,每题2分,共30分)Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneWhen John and Victoria Falls arrived in New York City for one-year stay, they did not bring very many things with them. They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America's fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couples—people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes . Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don't like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.1.Which of the following has become one of America's fastest growing businesses?A. Selling home furnishings.B. Renting furnished apartments.C. Selling used furniture.D. Renting home furnishings.2. Why do some people prefer to rent furniture?A. Because the furniture they get in this way is fashionable.B. Because it saves them a lot of time.C. Because it saves them much trouble and money.D. Because new furniture may pollute the environment.3. Young people liked renting home furniture in that ________?A. they like second-hand furniture.B. they dislike new furniture.C. they want to buy something more important with their money.D. they don't have much money and don't want to buy the cheap furniture.4. Which of the following is true?A. The idea of renting furniture is still quite new now.B. The idea of renting furniture has existed for a long time.C. Only those who don't have enough money like to rent furniture.D. The furniture people rent is usually not as good as they have expected.5. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Rent or Buy?B. A New Way of Getting Home Furnishings.C. Furnished Apartments.D. A New Idea.Passage TwoYou don't need millions to be happy. In fact, at The Happiness Institute in Australia, a couple of hundred dollars may be enough. The institute opened its doors last year, and, since then, men and women of all ages have been paying $140 for lessons on how to feel happy. “You can actually increase your happiness levels. That's what we teach," said Timothy Sharp, founder of the institute. Experts say that only about 15 percent of happiness comes from income, assets and other financial factors. As much as 85 percent comes from things such as attitude, life control and relationships. Most of us have more money than our parents and grandparents, but happiness levels haven't changed to reflect that. Studies show that once the basic needs of shelter and food aremet, additional wealth adds very little to happiness. Part of the reason we are richer but not happier is because we compare ourselves to people better off materially. “The argument is that if you want to be happy there's a very simple thing you can do: Compare yourself to people who are less well off than you.” said Sharp. The Happiness Institute aims to show you how to overcome these unhappiness factors by focusing on “more than just your bank account.” “If Icompare myself to Bill Gates then I'm always going to be down,” said Sharp. A better thing to compare with, he said, might be Kerry Packer, Australia's richest person who has had a kidney transplant and heart surgery in recent years.6. The main purpose of the Happiness Institute is to ________ (Para.1).A. teach you how to increase your happiness levels.B. teach you how to be better-off financially.C. help you find the right partner of your life.D. help you understand the importance of wealth to happiness.7. Most of the happiness comes from ________.A. incomeB. assetsC. attitudeD.food8. Which of the following is true?A. Just as we are richer than our parents and grandparents, so we are happier.B. Happiness levels have been increasing since the days of our parents and grandparents.C. The key to happiness is to get as rich as possible.D. Additional wealth adds little to happiness if the basic needs for shelter and food are met.9. How can you increase your happiness levels?A. Always focus on enlarging your bank account.B. Compare yourself to people who are less well off than you are.C. Try to earn more money than others.D. Compare yourself to Bill Gates.10. What is this passage mainly about?A. Ways to maintain a happy marriage.B. Ways to take care of your assets.C. Increasing your happiness levels by earning more money.D. How non-financial factors add to your happiness.Passage ThreeIn the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself . He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got marriedand moved with his wife to a very rich neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses. Momand went riding horses every day. When he saw that rich people had servants. Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. His series were very popular at that time.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.11. Some people want to “keep up with the Joneses” because they ________.A. want to be as rich as their neighborsB. want others to know or to think that they are richC. don't want others to know they are richD. want to be happy12.

The underlined word neighborhood in the second paragraph means ________.A. a person who lives near another.B. people living in an area.C. an area near the place referred to.D. an area in another town or city.14.

2023年江苏五专转本英语统考真题

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

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

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

江苏专转本英语试卷

江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Different countries and different races have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink. He leaves a little, to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he enjoys it.We should like to find out the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or to animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he lines up to wait his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an older person or a lady who is standing. If he accidentally bumps into (碰撞)someone, or gets in their way, he says “Excuse me” or “I’m sorry”.He says “Please” when making a request, and “Thank you” when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated. He does not talk too much about himself. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food.1. According to the passage, a knowledge of the customs of other races ______.A. is very usefulB. is unnecessaryC. is unimportantD. does not mean much2. A person with good manners thinks of ______.A. the older before himselfB. himself before othersC. no one but himselfD. his personal interests3. Which of the following is NOT true? A well-mannered person usually ______.A. says “Please” when making a requestB. makes an apology for bumping into someone accidentallyC. sits where he is when speaking to a ladyD. tries to help those who are in trouble4. If you want to be well-mannered, ______.A. you laugh at people when they are in troubleB. it’s all right to speak with your mouth full of foodC. you should stop someone when he is talkingD. you should speak after someone else has finished talking5. As different countries have different manners, ______A. it’s unnecessary to learn their mannersB. we should try to find out the differences in the customsC. it should be wrong to go out of one’s way to do anythingD. learning a little language would be helpedPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.I entered St. Thomas’s Hospital as a medical student at the age of 18 and spent five years there. I was an unsatisfactory student, for my heart was not in it. I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evenings, after my tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called Liza of Lambeth, which I sent to a publisher and was accepted. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. Looking back now, and knowing the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk.The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of £100 a year. Then I had a bit of luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed. The next play he arranged to put on was not ready, and he was at his wit’s end. He read a play of mine and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind could be produced. It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while, I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town.6. When the author was a medical student, he ______.A. had some trouble with his heartB. was a very good studentC. wanted to be a writer after graduationD. was satisfied with what he was doing at the time7. When the author wrote his first novel, ______.A. he sent it to a publisher but it was not acceptedB. he was still studying at the medical schoolC. he succeeded in publishing it though it was not a success.D. he had graduated from the medical school.8. The author gave up medicine because at that time ______.A. he thought he could make a living by writingB. he knew the success of the book was naturalC. he knew it was no risk to be a writerD. he was quite rich after the success of his book9. For the first ten years of his writing career after his graduation, the author earned an average of £100 a year, which was ______.A. a great sumB. a bit of luckC. a small sumD. a moderate success10. The manager of the Court Theatre agreed to put on the author’s play because ______.A. he thought the author was a good playwrightB. he liked the author’s plays very muchC. he failed to arrange a new play in timeD. he heard that the author had studied medicine beforePassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In the last 500 years, nothing about people –-- not their clothes, ideas or languages --- has changed asmuch as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1500, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it was soon widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine” of 1845-46, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Columbia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a goatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake”feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.11. According to the passage, ______ has changed the most in the last 500 years.A. foodB. chocolateC. potatoD. coffee12. “Some” in “Some still exist today” (Para.1) means ______.A. some cocoa treesB. some chocolate drinksC. some shopsD. some South American Indians13. Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine” because ______.A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB. they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD. the potato harvest was bad.14. Coffee originally came from ______.A. BrazilB. ColumbiaC. EthiopiaD. Arabia15. The Arabic legend is used to prove that ______.A. coffee was first discovered by KaldiB. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi’s goatsC. coffee was first discovered in South American countriesD. coffee drinks were first made by ArabsPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure ---- those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate thrill from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge, or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles.You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour till the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is estimated that 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly under threat. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in a comparatively safe environment; they buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such as bungee jumping.16. The best title for the passage would be ______.A. Dangerous Sports: What and WhyB. The Boredom of Modern LifeC. Bungee Jumping: Is It Really Dangerous?D. The Need for Excitement17. More and more people today ______.A. are trying activities such as bungee jumpingB. are climbing the highest mountainsC. are coming close to death in sportsD. are exploring unknown places18. In bungee jumping, you ______.A. jump as high as you canB. slide down a rope to the groundC. attach yourself to a rope and fall towards the groundD. fall towards the ground without a rope19. People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ______.A. they have a lot of free timeB. they can go to hospital if they are injuredC. their lives lack excitementD. they no longer need to hunt for food20. The writer of the passage has a ______ attitude towards dangerous sports.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. nervousPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)21.

江苏省2018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 about Zheng He’s travels. It is onl y 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 community 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. Inter views 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 findings by __________.A. recording the boys’ effort in scho olB. 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 consumption away 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.

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 37student 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. When research is assigned, the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with 41 guidance. It is the 42 responsibility to find books, magazines, and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain 43 a university library works, they expect students, particularly graduate students, to be able to search for the reference 44 in the library. Professors will help students who need it, but 45 their students not be 46 dependent on them. In the United States, professors have many other duties 47 teaching, such as administrative (行政的) or research work. 48 the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited.
