Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneThe rich have traditionally passed their wealth on to their children. But an increasing number of billionaires are choosing not to. The reason? They want their children to live on themselves—and not to turn into spoiled successors.Nicola Horlick or “supermum”, a famous British billionaire, owing to fact that she has high-flying jobs and five kids has spent her career making a reported £250m. She now seems determined to throw off large parts of it. She already gives away about 25% of her income each year; she has just revealed, in a report on the state of charity in the city, that she will not be leaving most of the remainder to her children. “I think it is wrong to give too much inherited wealth to children,” Horlick told the report’s authors. “I w ill not be leaving all my wealth to my children because that would just ruin their lives.”She is by no means the first to go public with this conviction. Bill Gates has put an estimated $30bn into the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. This was supplemented, in 2023, by another $24bn or so from his friend Warren Buffett.Buffett has always been colorful, quotably clear on where he stands. His daughter often tells a story of finding herself without change for a car parking ticket—her father lent her $20, then promptly made her write him a check. “To suggest that the children of the wealthy should be just as wealthy,” he has said, “is like saying the members of America’s 2023 Olympic team should be made up only of the children of the 1980 Olympic team.”Anita Roddick, the late founder of the Body Shop, told her kids that they would not inherit one penny. The money that she made from the company would go into the Body Shop Foundation, which isn’t one of those awful tax shelters, like some in America. It just functions to take themoney and give it away.31.The billionaires mentioned in the passage don’t want toleave much of their wealth to their children because ________.A. they prefer to give their wealth to charityB. they want their business to go on healthilyC. they believe too much wealth will harm their childrenD. they hope their children can make more money themselves32.What do we learn about Nicola Horlick?A.She has already given away about 25% of her wealth.B.She is the first one who declares to give away her wealth.C.She will leave only a small portion of her wealth to her kids.D.She inherited most of her wealth from her parents.33.Buffett distinguishes himself for ________.A.his clear-cut positionB.being strict with his childrenC.his talent in financial managementD.being a giant in the stock market34.According to Buffett’s daughter, her father ________.A.refuses to lend her moneyB.wants her to invest in the Olympic GamesC.never gives her more money than necessaryD.always makes sure that she returns his money35.It is implied in the last paragraph that some foundations are used by the rich to ________.A.provide shelter for the poorB.build good fameC.avoid paying taxD.support their businessPassage TwoIt is football time again. Currently, the qualifying rounds are being played to decide which countries will send teams to the 2023 World Cup. Soccer is becoming more and more popular on a worldwide scale and these qualifying legs are causing much excitement.The game is popular at club level as well. Many fans go every week to support their team, whether the event is a home or away one, hoping to get a result. They all hope an attacking game, with a lot of goals being scored. Obviously, they do not want to see a boring, defensive match where the players are aimlessly passing the ball to each other.Sadly, not all the action always takes place on the ground. All too frequently, there is action in the stands, too. Football supporters, most of whom declare their loyalty by wearing their team’s colours, in the form of shirts, are not known for their quiet behaviour. They are often very noisy,shouting noisy encouragement to their team and singing deafening songs.There is much rivalry between supporters. Mostly, this is good-natured, but trouble can easily arise. Fans get angry if they feel that a referee has made a wrong decision, perhaps giving one of their team a red or yellow card unfairly, or perhaps failing to notice a foul (犯规) committed by a member of the other team.When trouble breaks out in a football crowd, it can be difficult to control. Stadium officials often seat the opposing fans in separate parts of the ground as a precaution against fighting. However, preventing trouble is more difficult outside the ground. In the worst cases, riot police have to be called in.Unfortunately, there are some fans who enjoy this violent aspect of football. These football hooligans (流氓) really enjoy a running battle with the police, and call up other people to throw stones and bottles at them. Theyregard football not as a sport, but as an excuse for troublemaking. Inevitably, their behaviour spoils the reputation of the game.36.The qualifying rounds are played to _______.A.attract soccer fansB.select the best teams for the next roundsC.raise funds for the organizersD.decide which players are the best37.What do the football fans hope to see?A.A home game.B.A defensive game.C.An evenly matched game.D.An exciting game.38.Fans get angry when they think _______.A.the referee is unfairB.their team is losingC.their team is not playing wellD.there is an intentional foul39.Riot police are called in _______.A.to separate the opposing fans inside the groundB.as a precaution against trouble inside the groundC.to stop fighting occurring outside the groundD.as a precaution against fighting outside the ground40.It is implied in the last paragraph that _______.A.football fans enjoy spoiling gamesB.football hooligans are crazy about the gamesC.football can be an excuse for troublemakingD.football has a poor reputationPassage ThreeOur sense of smell, which we normally take for granted, is nowadays being increasingly used for purposes which might surprise us if we were aware of them. Onearea in which smells are created to achieve particular results is marketing. For some time manufacturers have taken advantage of our sense of smell with regard to household goods. Millions of dollars are spent on product research in the hunt for the right smell as it is believed perfume influences the way consumers perceive a brand. In a survey in the United States, when people were asked what was the most important factor in their choice of detergent (洗衣粉), smell was rated highly, above ingredients and price.Now stores are becoming even more direct in their use of smell. The smell of fresh bread in a supermarket tends to encourage people to buy, and people selling their houses are recommended to have coffee being heated when potential buyers arrive. Suddenly smell is becoming big business. One company specializing in the use of smells to attract customers now has many large stores on its own list of customers. They find that when pleasant smells are filtered through a store’s air conditioning system, people tend tospend longer in the store and buy more.Research shows that smells can increase people’s view of the value of a product. In a test, people looked at the same types of shoes in two rooms—one filled with purified air, the other with a smell of mixed flowers. 84% of the people preferred the shoes in the room with the smell of flowers. In fact, many said they would be prepared to pay up to US$10 more for a pair.Smells also have other potential uses. Some companies are experimenting with different smells to produce different effects in their workers according to the time of day. For example, early in the morning they might put the smell of lemon in the air conditioning system to wake people up. In the middle of the morning, when the atmosphere tends to become more tense, the smell of wood could be used to calm people down. Before lunchtime the smell of melting butter would encourage people to go to lunch on time. After lunch, when people often begin to lose concentration, thesmell of mint (薄荷) would increase their alertness.41.Which is the most appropriate title for the passage?A.How to avoid being affected by smellsing smells to influence peopleC.The power of our sense of smellD.New smells in supermarkets42.In the survey, when selecting detergent, people considered smell ________.A.not importantB.as important as priceC.less important than ingredientsD.more important than price43.To attract more customers, some large stores ________.A.employ a company specializing in the use of smellsB.provide free coffee for themC.filter purified air through air conditioningD.decorate themselves with fresh flowers44.The majority of people in the test (Para. 3) preferred ________.A.the smell of shoes to that of flowersB.the smell of flowers to that of shoesC.the shoes in the room with purified airD.the shoes in the room with appealing smells45.To produce a calming effect, some companies use thesmell of ________.A.lemonB.woodC.melting butterD.mintPassage FourThe First Rule of Finance is to live within your means by spending no more than 80% of your take-home pay. If you take home $100 per week, spend no more than $80.But ever look at what people spend their money on? I have relatives and friends deeply in debt, spending $12 forevery $10 they earn instead of the $8 you know they should be spending. When I see them, they’re proud of their new whatever. “What do you think of my new truck?” asked one from the driver’s seat. “Do you like my new shoes?” asked another on high heels. “Check out my new big screen,” said a third while holding the remote in his living room. We’ve all heard people fishing for compliments on their new toys.Every one of them was proud of what they’d finance d. They seem to have bought it for the purpose of being proud, of showing off, of keeping up with the Joneses. “Look at my new…” is everybody’s favorite phrase, even when the object in question isn’t theirs at all and won’t be new when they’ve finally paid for it, if they ever do.They’re proud of being stupid. They think it’s cool to drive the financed car, wear the financed shoes, and watch the financed TV, but to smart people, whose opinions are the only ones we should respect, these people look dumb as rocks.The Joneses, nine times out of 10, are financially stupid. That’s why they have all that stuff, on borrowed money. Why try to copy them? Worse, why try to impress them? Copy and impress smart people, the ones who own their stuff. If you want to impress smart people, debt is the last way to go about it. Trying to impress a money-smart person by going into debt is like trying to impress Olympic swimming champion Michael Phelps by drowning in a pool. Michael Phelps is impressed by good swimming, and a money-smart person by good money management.46.According to the author, the new truck, shoes and bigscreen mentioned in Para. 2 are ________.A.indicators of wealthB.necessities to the buyersC.just a waste of moneyD.examples of showing off47.“… the object in question isn’t theirs” (Para. 2) means ______.A.it is bought for other peopleB.it is bought with loaned moneyC.it will finally be owned by the bankD.it will finally be owned by the buyers48.According to the author, buying new objects on borrowed money is ________.A.unwiseB.shamefulC.understandableD.impressive49.“Smart people” in the last paragraph refer to ________.A.clever businessmenB.people with high IQsC.fashionable wealthy peopleD.people good at money management50.The purpose of this passage is to ________.A.show sympathy with poor consumersB.criticize consumption of luxuriesC.advise people to become money-smartD.persuade people to keep off fashionsPart IV Cloze Test (15 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each numbered blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.There is one fairly standard reason why some thinkers regard the meaning-of-life question as being itself meaningless. They argue __51___ meaning is a matter of language, not objects. It is a __52__ of the way we talk about things, not a feature of things themselves, __53___ shape, weight or color. A cabbage or a computer is not meaningful in itself; it becomes __54___ only by being caught up in our conversation. On this theory, we can make life __55__ by our talk about it; but it cannot have a meaning in itself, __56___ than a cloud can. It would not __57__ sense, for example, to speak of a cloud as being true or false. ___58__, truth and falsehood are functions ofour humman judgements about clouds. However, there are problems with this argument, __59___ there are with most philosophical arguments. We shall be __60___ a few of them later on.51. A. that B. how C. if D. what52. A. means B. question C. problem D. method53. A. with B. for C. like D. as54. A. this B. that C. such D. so55. A. rich B. important C. meaningful D. colorful56. A. not more B. far moreC. much moreD. any more57. A. make B. bring C. take D. give58. A. Hence B. Rather C. Still D. Therefore59. A. when B. since C. as D. for60. A. writing about B. hunting forC. listening toD. looking at英语试卷二Part V Translation (30 minutes, 10 points)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.Human friends may come and go, but a horse could be one of your most loyal, long-term friends if you treat it right.Horses understand words better than expected, since horses can hear the human voice better than even dogs can, due to their particular range of hearing. And scientists predict that trainers could have greater success if they use more verbal commands in their horse training programs.Horses possess excellent memories, which allow horses to not only recall their human friends after a long period of separation but also to remember some complex human instructions for ten years or more. The bonds with humans are likely an extension of horse behavior in the wild, since horsesvalue their own horse relatives and friends, and are also open to new, non-threatening acquaintances. Horses maintain long-term bonds with several members of their family group, but they also interact temporarily with members of other groups when forming herds.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are to write in no less than 120 words on the topic of “The Country I Would Like to Visit”. You may base your composition on the clues given below:1.假如有机会到国外度假两周，你会选择哪个国家?2.请至少给出三个理由。

在职申硕(同等学力)英语真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)在职申硕（同等学力）英语真题试卷（题后含答案及解析）一、阅读理解阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
Passage 1Scientists are learning more about the effects of stress on our bodies. Long-term stress may increase the risk of obesity(肥胖), heart disease, and even asthma, according to new research.Stressful experiences---such as mental illness in a family, unemployment, poverty, or abuse---continue to affect our health and well-being far longer than the actual event. This is becoming a major concern for public health professionals.Researchers at the University of California discovered that childhood stress could permanently affect a person’s DNA. They found that kids who went through traumatic (创伤性的) experiences at a young age had shorter telomeres（端粒）than tho se who hadn’t. Telomeres are the protective tips at the end of our DNA, and shorter telomeres are linked to a variety of health problems. The researchers concluded that early childhood trauma has a lasting impact on our overall health.In another study, scientists in Sweden measured the stress levels of 17,000 adults, and then tracked them for 11 years. The results showed that the most stressed-out participants had a 45% higher risk of developing heart disease. The study also revealed that those with stressful jobs were more likely to take sick leave due to heart problems.Furthermore, researchers in New Zealand found that children who suffered ongoing stress before the age of 15 had a higher chance of developing asthma later in life. This finding suggests that reducing stress in early childhood could have long-term health benefits.Overall, these studies emphasize the need for stress reduction strategies and interventions, particularly in high-risk populations. Whether through therapy, meditation(冥想), or lifestyle changes, it is essential that we find healthy ways to manage and cope with stress to protect our long-term health.1. According to the passage, long-term stress may lead to _______.A. mental illnessB. shorter telomeresC. unemploymentD. poverty答案：B解析：根据第一段中的“Long-term stress may increase the risk of obesity(肥胖), heart disease, and even asthma, according to new research.”可知，长期的压力可能会增加肥胖、心脏病甚至哮喘的风险，选项B中的“shorter telomeres”（更短的端粒）对应文章中提到的短端粒与健康问题有关。

This trend can be attributed to the numerous benefits it offers, including career advancement opportunities, personal development, and financial reasons.Firstly, one of the main advantages of pursuing a Master's degree while working is the opportunity for career advancement. In today's competitive job market, having a higher level of education is often a requirement for higher positions or promotions. By obtaining a Master's degree, individuals can enhance their skills and knowledge, making them more competitive and desirable to employers. This can open up new career opportunities and help them climb the corporate ladder.Secondly, pursuing a Master's degree while working allows individuals to continue their personal development. Education is not only about gaining knowledge but also about personal growth. Through academic studies, people can improve their critical thinking abilities, communication skills, and problem-solving capabilities. These skills are transferable and can benefit individuals in various aspects of their lives, both personally and professionally.Additionally, financial reasons play a significant role in the decision to pursue a Master's degree while working. Studying full-time often requires individuals to give up their jobs, resulting in a loss of income. By choosing to study while working, individuals can maintain a stable income while obtaining a higher degree. This provides financial security and reduces the burden of student loans or other forms of financial assistance.However, pursuing a Master's degree while working also presents challenges. The juggling act of balancing work, studies, and personal commitments can be demanding and often requires exceptional time management skills and discipline. It may require individuals to sacrifice leisure time and personal relationships. Nonetheless, with proper planning and dedication, it is possible to overcome these challenges and reap the benefits of this unique educational path.In conclusion, pursuing a Master's degree while working offers numerous advantages, including career advancement opportunities, personal development, and financial stability. It provides individuals with the chance to enhance their skills, expand their knowledge, and remain competitive inthe job market. Despite the challenges it may present, with determination and perseverance, this educational path can lead to a brighter future.。

Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring NSWER SHEET.Passage OneUntil last spring, Nia Parker and the other kids in her neighborhood commuted to school on Bus 59. But as fuel prices rose, the school district needed to find a way to cut its transportation costs. So the school's busing company redrew its route map, eliminating Nia's bus altogether. Now Nia and her neighbors travel the haft mile to school via a “walking school bus”a group of kids, supervised by an adult or two, who make the walk together.Like the rest of us, school districts are feeling pinched by rising fuel costs—and finding new ways to adapt. The price of diesel fuel has gone up 34 percent in the past two years. For the typical American school district, bus bills total 5 percent of the budget. As administrators look to trim, busing is an inviting target, since it doesn't affect classroom instruction (or test scores). More than one third of American school administrators have elim/nated bus stops or routes in order to stay within budget.Many parents are delighted to see their kids walking to school, partly because many did so themselves: according to a 1969 survey, nearly half of school kids walked or biked to school, compared with only 16 percent in 2001. Modem parents have been unwilling to let kids walk to school for fear of traffic, crime or simple bullying, but with organized adult supervision, those concerns have diminished.Schools and busing companies are finding other ways to save. In rural areas where busing is a must, some schools have even chosen four day school weeks. Busing companies instruct drivers to eliminate extra stops from routes and to mm off the engine while idling. They are also using computer software to determine the most fuelefficient routes, which aren't always the shortest ones.There could be downsides, however, to the busing cutbacks. If every formerly bused student begins walking to school, it's an environmental winbut if too many of their parents decide to drive them instead, the overall carbon footprint can grow. Replacing buses with many more parent driven cars can also increase safety risks: A 2002 report concluded students are 13 times safer on a school bus than in a passenger car, since buses have fewer accidents and withstand them better due to their size. And some students complain about the long morning hikes, particularly when the route contains a really big hill.31. The “walking school bus” _________.A. does not consume fuelB. aims to keep children fitC. seldom causes traffic jamsD. is popular with school kids32. In America the responsibility for busing kids to school lies with _______.A. individual schoolsB. school districtsC. teachersD. parents33. As regards walking to school, modern parents seem much concerned with the_____.A. time spent on the wayB. changes in the routeC. kids' physical strengthD. safety of their children34. To save money, some schools choose to _____________.A. take the shortest routesB. shorten the school weekC. give drivers better trainingD. use fuelefficient buses35. Busing cutbacks may eventually lead to ___________.A. fiercer competition among bus companiesB. more students taking public transportationC. an increase in carbon dioxide emissionsD. a decrease in the safety of school buses36. Which of the following best describes the author's attitude towards busing cutbacks?A. Favorable.B. Critical.C.Objective.D. Indifferent.Passage TwoPeople are living longer than eve Two r, but for some reason, women are living longer than men. A baby boy born in the United States in 2003 can expect to live to be about 73, a baby girl, about 79. This is indeed a wide gap, and no one really knows why it exists. The greater longevity (长寿) of women, however, has been known for centuries. It was, for example, described in the seventeenth century. However, the difference was smaller thenthe gap is growing.A number of reasons have been proposed to account for the differences. The gap is greatest in industrialized societies, so it has been suggested that women are less susceptible to work strains that may raise the risk of heart disease and alcoholism. Sociologists also tell us that women are encouraged to be less adventurous than men (and this may be why they are more careful drivers, involved in fewer accidents).Even smoking has been implicated in the age discrepancy. It was once suggested that working women are more likely to smoke and as more women entered the work force, the age gap would begin to close, because smoking is related to earlier deaths. Now, however, we see more women smoking and they still tend to live longer although their lung cancer rate is climbing sharply.One puzzling aspect of the problem is that women do not appear to be as healthy as men. That is, they report far more illnesses. But when a man reports an illness, it is more likely to be serious. Some researchers have suggested that men may die earlier because their health is more strongly related to their emotions. For example, men tend to die sooner after losing a spouse than women do. Men even seem to be more weakened by loss of a job.(Both of these are linked with a marked decrease in the effectiveness of the immune system.) Among men, death follows retirement with an alarming promptness.Perhaps we are searching for the answers too close to the surface of the problem. Perhaps the answers lie deeper in our biological heritage. After all, the phenomenon is not isolated to humans. Females have the edge among virtually all mammalian (哺乳动物) species, in that they generally live longer. Furthermore, in many of these species the differences begin at the moment of conception; there are more malev miscarriages (流产). In humans, after birth, more baby boys than baby girls die.37. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs?A. Men's lifespan remains almost unchanged.B. Researchers have found the causes of the age gap.C. The more advanced a society, the greater the age gap.D. The age gap was noticed only recently.38. As is suggested in Paragraph 2, the two factors relevant to women's longer lifespan are _____.A. diseases and road accidentsB. industrialization and work strainsC. their immunity to heart disease and refusal of alcoholD. their endurance of work strains and reluctance for adventure39. According to Paragraph 3, which of the following statements is true?A. The great number of male smokers contributes to the age gap.B. The growing number of smoking women will narrow the age gap.C. Female workers are more likely to smoke than male workers.D. Smoking does not seem to affect women's longevity.40. Which of the following phenomena makes researchers puzzled?A. Men's health is more closely related to their emotions.B. Though more liable to illnesses, women still live longer.C. Men show worse symptoms than women when they fall ill.D. Quite a number of men die soon after their retirement.41. The word “edge”in Paragraph 6 means“___________”.A. marginB. sideC. advantageD. quality42. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The greater longevity of women remains a mystery.B. That women are healthier than men well explains their longevity.C. People are living longer as a result of industrialization.D. Women are less emotionally affected by difficulties in life.Passage ThreeMany are aware of the tremendous waste of energy in our environment, but fail to take advantage of straightforward opportunities to conserve that energy. For example, everyone knows that lights should be switched off when no one is in an office. Similarly, when employees are not using a meeting room, there is no need to regulate temperature.Fortunately, one need not rely on human intervention to conserve energy. With the help of smart sensing and network technology, energy conservation processes such as turning off lights and adjusting temperature can be readily automated. Ultimately, this technology will enable consumers and plant managers to better identify wasteful energy use and institute procedures that leadto smarter and more efficient homes, buildings and industrial plants.Until now, wires and cables for power and connectivity have limited the widespread adoption of sensor (传感器) networks by making them difficult and expensive to install and maintain. Batterypowered wireless networks can simplify installation and reduce cost. But their high power consumption and the corresponding need for regular battery replacement has made wireless networks difficult and costly to maintain. Nobody wants to replace hundreds or thousands of window sensor batteries in a large building on a regular basis.The promise of wireless sensor networks can only be fully realized when the wiring for both the data communication and the power supply is eliminated. Doing so requires a tree batteryfree wireless solution, one that can utilize energy harvested directly from the environment. To facilitate the widespread deployment of wireless sensor networks, GreenPeak has developed an ultralowpower communication technology that can utilize environmental energy sources such as light, motion and vibration. This technology, employing onboard power management circuits and computer software to monitor energy harvesters and make the best use of harvested energy, enables sensors to operate reliably in a batteryfree environment.Wireless sensor networks deployed in our offices and homes will have an enormous impact on ourdaily lives, helping to build a smarter world in which energy is recycled and fully utilized. These wireless platforms, equipped with advanced sensing capability, will enable us to better control our lives, homes and environment, creating a truly connected world that enables people worldwide to live in a more comfortable, safer, and cleaner environment.43. By “human intervention”(Paragraph 2), the author refers to ________.A. the reduction of great energy waste in the environmentB. the grasping of straightforward opportunities availableC. acts like turning off lights when no one is in the roomD. the adoption of smart sensing and network technology44. Batteries are not an ideal energy source for sensor networks because they__________.A. have to be replaced from time to timeB. contain metals that pollute the environmentC. require automatic rechargingD. are difficult and costly to maintain45. Battery-free wireless sensor networks are made possible by the fact that______.A. there is energy in the environment to be utilizedB. the cost of using them has been drastically reducedC. modem data communication consumes little energyD. their maintenance has been greatly simplified46. According to the passage, Green Peak ___________.A. is the first company to install wireless sensor networksB. promotes the application of wireless sensor networksC. supplies batteries operating on harvested energyD. benefits handsomely from communication technology47. The focus of Paragraph 4 is on the ____________.A. replacement of batteries in harvestersB. monitoring of energy harvested from the environmentC. elimination of batteries in sensor networksD. impact of sensor networks on power supply48. Wireless sensor networks promise to ___________.A. bring businesses high profitsB. further develop the sensing technologyC. turn motion into a major source of energyD. improve the daily lives of people worldwidePassage FourIf you haven't heard or seen anything about Road Rage in the last few months, you've probably been avoiding the media. There have been countless stories about this new and scary phenomenon, considered a type of aggressive driving. You have most likely encountered aggressive driving and/or Road Rage recently if you drive at all.While drunk driving remains a critical problem, the facts about aggressive driving are surely as disturbing. For instance, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, 41,907 people died on the highway last year. Of those fatalities, the agency estimates that about twothirds were caused at least in part by aggressive driving behavior.Why is this phenomenon occurrifig more than ever now, and why is it something that seemedalmost nonexistent a few short years ago? Experts have several theories, and all are probably partially correct. One suggestion is sheer overcrowding. In the last decade, the number of cars on the roads has increased by more than 11 percent, and the number of miles driven has increased by 35 percent. However, the number of new road miles has only increased by 1 percent. That means more cars in the same amount of space; and the problem is magnified in urban areas. Also, people have less time and more things to do. With people working and trying to fit extra chores (琐事) and activities into the day, stress levels have never been higher. Stress creates anxiety, which leads to short tempers. These factors, when combined in certain situations, can spell Road Rage.You may think you are the last person who would drive aggressively, but you might be surprised. For instance, have you ever yelled out loud at a slower driver, sounded the horn long and hard at another car, or sped up to keep another driver from passing? If you recognize yourself in any of these situations, watch out!Whether you are getting angry at other drivers, or another driver is visibly upset with you, there are things you can do to avoid any major confrontation. If you are susceptible to Road Rage, the key is to discharge your emotion in a healthy way. If you are the target of another driver's rage, do everything possible to get away from the other driver safely, including avoiding eye contact and getting out of their way.49. The first sentence in Paragraph 1 implies that ______________.A. people not interested in the media know little about recent happeningsB. Road Rage has received much media coverage in the last few monthsC. one may be raged by media reports and wants to avoid themD. the media coined the term "Road Rage" only a few months ago50. According to the National Highway Transportation Safety Association, last year______.A. drunk driving remained the No. 1 killer on the highwaysB. more people were killed by aggressive driving than by drunk drivingC. two thirds of drivers were killed by aggressive drivingD. 41,907 people fell victim to aggressive driving51. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a cause of aggressive driving?A. Increasing number of cars.B. Drivers' stress and anxiety.C. Overcrowded roads.D. Rush hour traffic.52. The word “spell” in Paragraph 3 means“______________”.A. speakB. causeC. describeD. spare53. Which of the following characterizes aggressive driving?A. Talking while driving.B. Driving fast.C. Yelling at another driver.D. Sounding the horn when passing.54. The last paragraph is intended to ____________.A. tell people how to cope with Road RageB. inform people how aggressive drivers could beC. tell people how to control themselves when angryD. warn people against eye contact with another driverPassage FiveIn the early 20th century, a horse named Clever Hans was believed capable of counting and other impressive mental tasks. After years of great performance, psychologists discovered that though Hans was certainly clever, he was not clever in the way everyone expected. The horse wascleverly picking up on tiny, unintentional bodily and facial signals given out not only by his trainer, but also by the audience.Aware of the “Clever Hans” effect, Lisa Lit at the University of Calif ornia and her colleagues wondered whether the beliefs of professional dog handlers might similarly affect the outcomes of searches for drugs and explosives. Remarkably, Dr Lit found, they do.Dr Lit asked 18 professional dog handlers and their dogs to complete brief searches. Before the searches, the handlers were informed that some of the search areas might contain up to three target scents, and also that in two cases those scents would be marked by pieces of red paper. What the handlers were not told was that none of the search areas contained the scents of either drugs or explosives. Any “detections” made by the teams thus had to be false.The findings reveal that of 144 searches, only 21 were clean (no alerts). All the others raised one alert or more. In total, the teams raised 225 alerts. While the sheer number of false alerts struck Dr Lit as fascinating, it was where they took place that was of greatest interest.When handlers could see a red piece of paper, allegedly marking a location of interest, they were much more likely to say that their dogs signalled an alert. The human handlers were not only distracted on almost every occasion by the stimulus aimed at them, but also transmitted that distraction to their animals who responded accordingly. To mix metaphors, the dogs were crying “wolf” at the unconscious signal of their handlers.How much that matters in the real world is unclear. But it might, If a handler, for example, unconsciously “profiled” people being sniffed by a drugor explosivedetect ing dog at an airport, false positives could abound. That is not only bad for innocent travellers, but might distract the team from catching the guilty.55. What did psychologists find out about Clever Hans?A. He was as clever as people claimed.B. He was really good at counting.C. He could understand human language.D. He merely responded to human signals.56. Lisa Lit and her colleagues ___________.A. questioned the “Clever Hans” effectB. discovered the “Clever Hans” effectC. confirmed the “Clever Hans” effectD. rejected the “Clever Hans” effect57. The dog handlers learned before the searches that __________.A. each search area contained three target scentsB. there was actually no target scent in the search areaC. some target scents may be labelled with a special markD. their dogs were expected to f'md the scents of red paper58. What was most significant about the experiment, according to Dr. Lit?A. The location of the false alerts.B. The regularity of the false alerts.C. The number of the false alerts.D. The timing of the false alerts.59. It can be concluded from the experiment that ___________.A. dog handlers are more likely to be distracted than their dogsB. dogs may act in response to their handlers' bodily signalsC. the cooperation between dogs and their handlers is key to successD. welltraineddogs can better understand their handlers' signals60. The author thinks that Dr. Lit's findings _____________.A. should raise our concern in real lifeB. may not be useful in real situationsC. should be backed up by further evidenceD. will be widely applied in the near futurePart IV Close (15 minutes, 15 points, 1 for each)Directions: In this part, there is a passage with 15 blanks.

Presently some zoos have become scientific and educational 63 that have contributed to the understanding and conservation of wild animal populations. 64 the challenges facing modern zoos are the cost of upgrading old facilities, the struggle to obtain 65 operating funds, and the need to attract more visitors to new and entertaining exhibits.Many 66 zoos in American dries have undergone renovation (翻新) during the last decades of the twentieth century. Among the recent trends in zoo 67 is the construction of new enclosures that resemble natural habitats (栖息地). The replacement of traditional steel bars and concrete floors 68 appropriately designed surroundings improves visitor appreciation of the animals. Such renovations may. 69 stress on animals and allow them to interact with one another more naturally. Several major zoos conduct captive propagation programs. A captive propagation program includes the breeding of 70 zoo or wild animals to obtain offspring, usually for release to 71 or for transfer to other zoos. Captive breeding is one method of 72 some species from extinction.Zoos have expanded and improved public education programs also, with education departments that develop programs 73 zoo exhibits. Public activities include inschool programs, zoo tours, special events, and websites. The Zoological Society of New York, for example, conducted a major project with a Western African government to monitor an elephant herd 74 it moved throughout its range.The importance of zoos will increase as natural habitats are diminishing. Through their efforts 75 conservation, education, and environmental advocacy, zoos will continue to play a critical role in wildlife preservation throughout the world.61.

Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneIt happens to us all, however hard we may try to delay the process---we grow old. Surgery may remove wrinkles (皱纹), skin which has become less firm may be tightened by a surgical operation on the face, and hair dressers may dye grey hair a more youthful color. But we cannot remain young forever.Advances in medicine have made it possible for more people to stay alive longer. However what is important is the quality of life, and people age differently. Some people remain quite well and able to look after themselves when they get old. But others of the same age are not so lucky. They have to go into a nursing home in order to receive adequate care.The worst aspect of ageing is that often the mind becomes less alert. As people grow older, they often experience loss of short-term memory, although they may well be able to recall quite easily events that happened long ago. Later they may suffer from dementia (痴呆), a disease which gets gradually worse.By no means all elderly people are in this category. Many senior citizens are in possession of all their faculties and see retirement as a time of freedom. Not only that, if they have a generous retirement pension, they are likely to be quite well off, with money to spend on holidays and other luxuries. Because of this, both businesses and government have a new respect for what is known as grey power.By no means, however, does everyone treat OAPs with respect. There are some cultures which are noted for the great respect with which they treat their old people, but many people in other cultures regard the old as having a very low status in society and treat them accordingly. They often consider old people as having one foot in the grave. Someone should remind them that they, too, will be old one day.31. Elderly people who cannot look after themselves go to ______.A. nursing homesB. residences close to hospitalsC. community centersD. homes of their children32. The worst aspect of ageing is ________.A. inability to look after oneselfB. low retirement pensionC. getting more and more forgetfulD. inadequate medical care33. What is the reason that businesses respect the elderly?A. The elderly are wise.B. The elderly have knowledge.C. The elderly are mentally alert.D. The elderly have spending power.34. ―OAP‖( Para.5 ) most likely means ―_________‖.A. old age programB. old age powerC. old age partyD. old age pensioner35. According to the author, how people treat the elderly relates to _______.A. their occupationsB. their cultural backgroundsC. their education levelsD. the amount of their free timePassage TwoThe swan is mostly silent through its life, unable to sing sweet songs like most other birds, In Ancient times, however, people believed a swan sings the most beautiful song just before it dies. The ancient Greek philosopher Socrates talked of this 2, 300 years ago. Socrates explained that the swan was singing because it was happy. T he bird was happy because it was going to serve the Greek God Apollo. Swans were holy to Apollo, the god of poetry and song.The story of the swan’s last song found a place in the works of other writers, including the early English writers Chaucer and Shakespeare. And the expression ―swan song ‖ has long been a part of the English language. At first, ―swan song ‖ meant the last work of a poet, musician or writer. Now, it means the final effort of any person. Someone’s swan song usually is also considered that person’s finest work.A politi cal expression with a similar meaning is ―the last hurrah‖. The expression may be used to describe a politician’s last campaign, his final attempt to win cheers and votes. The last hurrah also can mean the last acts of a politician, before his term in office ends. Writer Edwin O’Connor made the expression popular in 1956. He wrote a book about the final years in the political life of a long time mayor of Boston. He called his book The Last Hurrah.Some language experts say the expression came from a name given to noisy supporters of Andrew Jackson, America’s seventh president. They cheered hurrah so loudly for Andy Jackson during his presidential campaign that they became known as the hurrah boys.Jackson’s hurrah boys also played a part in the election to choose the next president. Jackson’s choice was his vice president, Martin Van Buren. A newspaper of the time reported that Van Buren was elected president: ―…by the hurrah boys, and those who knew just enough to shout hurrah for Jackson.‖ President Jac kson really heard his last hurrahs in the campaign of the man who would replace him in the White House.36. In ancient times, people believed that a swan sings most beautifully _______.A. before deathB. when is happyC. for ApolloD. in front of other birds37. According to Socrates, swans were __________.A. holy birdsB. happy birdsC. pets of a Greek GodD. in front of other birds38. The English expression ―swan song‖_________.A. was first used by ChaucerB. changed its meaning through timeC. means the best song ever createdD. refers to a work of Shakespeare39. Martin Van Buren _______.A. was the U.S. president before JacksonB. served as the eighth U.S. presidentC. is the author of The Last HurrahD. was a politic al rival of O’Connor40. President Jackson’s last hurrah was to ________.A. express his gratitude to his supportersB. win the final cheers from his supportersC. defeat another candidate in the electionD. help his vice president get electedPassage ThreeThere is no question that academic enterprise has become increasingly global, particularly in the sciences. Nearly three million students now study outside their home countries——a 57% increase in the last decade. Foreign students now dominate many U.S. doctoral programs, accounting for 64% of Ph. Ds in computer science, for example.Faculty members are on the move, too. Half of the world’s top physicists no longer work in their native countries. And major institutions such as New York University are creating branch campuses in the Middle East and Asia. There are now 162satellite campuses worldwide, an increase of 43% in just the past three years.At the same time, growing numbers of traditional source countries for students, from South Korea to Saudi Arabia (沙特阿拉伯), are trying to improve both the quantity and quality of their own degrees, engaging in a fierce and expensive race to recruit students and create worldclass research universities of their own.Such competition has led to considerable hand-writing in the West. During a 2008 campaign stop, for instance, then-candidate Barack Obama expressed alarm about the threat that such academic competition poses to U.S. competitiveness. Such concerns are not limited to the United States. In some countries worries about educational competition and brain drains have led to academic protectionism. India, for instance, places legal and bureaucratic in front of Western universities that want to set up satellite campuses to enroll local students.Perhaps some of the anxiety over the new global academic enterprise is understandable. Particularly in a period of massive economic uncertainty. But educational protectionism is as big a mistake as trade protectionism is. The globalization of higher education should be embraced. not feared——including in the United States. There is every reason to believe that the worldwide competition for human talent, the race to produce innovative research, the push to extend university campuses to multiple countries, and the rush to train talented graduates who can strengthen economics increasingly knowledge –based economics will be good for the United States, as well.41. A feature of the globalization of the academic enterprise is that more students _____.A. study in foreign countriesB. major in computer scienceC. take joint doctoral programsD. return home after studying abroad42. A satellite campus is probably a branch campus that a university sets up _________.A. in developed countriesB. in another countryC inside another university D. on the Internet43. The word ―hand-wringing ‖(Para.4) probably means ―________‖.A. angerB. in another countryC. interestsD. delight44. Academic protectionism is characterized by _____.A. enlarging enrollment of local studentsB. limiting the growth of Ph. D. programsC. creating more satellite campuses abroadD. restricting satellite campuses of foreign universities45. In the last paragraph, the author tries to emphasize that _____.A. the academic enterprise has become globalB. academic competition has led to protectionismC. worries over educational competition are understandableD. educational protectionism cannot be justifiedPassage FourWho says your job leaves you no time to hit the gym? A detailed new study of U. S. physical activity patterns shows that men who work full-time whether their jobs are active or sedentary end up getting more exercise than healthy working –age men without a job.The new study comes from researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), As part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2003, some, 1, 800 working-age adults were asked questions about their lifestyle and work habits, and, most importantly, they then agreed to wear an accelerometer—a device to measure their physical activity — over the course of several days.Those data from the accelerometers provide a rare opportunity to nail down how much activity the typical American actually does.They show that men or women who work in active jobs do more physical activity on weekdays than men or women working in sedentary jobs. That’s perhaps not surprising, but the NIH researchers suggest that it still matters because of an ongoing shift in the economy toward sedentary work.The more surprising finding is the one that compares full-time workers to people who don’t work. The study shows that men with full-time jobs do more physical activity than healthy men without jobs. (―Healthy man, ‖ in this case, were those men wh o said their primary reason for being out of work was something other than health or disability.) In fact, even sedentary fulltime workers performed more weekday physical activity overall than the healthy non-workersThe results looked very different for women. Women in sedentary jobs did less physical activity on weekdays than their healthy non-working peers.So what drives the gender (性别)difference? The study looks at the patterns, and unfortunately can’t provide too much detail about their causes. Th ere could be many possible answers, including, perhaps, different abilities to pay for leisure time activities, or different attitudes about work and physical activity. It could also be that more non-working women than men are choosing to be at home running around full-time after the kids.But the NIH researchers do find evidence, they write, to suggest that, whatever causes the difference, healthy non-working women ―are replacing work with active pursuits whereas ‖ for some reason —―[non-working ]men gen erally are not.‖46. A sedentary job ( Para. 1 ) is one that involves ________.A. staying seated a lotB. intensive concentrationC. moving about a lotD. superb skills47. What is the function of the accelerometers in the study?A. They record people’s physical activities.B. They measure people’s workload.C. They distinguish gender differences.D. They push people to be more active.48. What is a possible reason for non-working women to be physically active?A. They are well-educated.B. Their kids keep them busy.C. They are open-minded.D. Their husbands influence them.49. The study tries to identify________.A. the ongoing economy trendB. evidence for gender differencesC. the American physical activity patternsD. the relation between work and leisure50. Who are the least physically active according to the study?A. Men with sedentary jobs.B. Men with active jobs.C. Healthy women with no jobs.D. Healthy men with no jobs.Part IV Cloze Test (15 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each numbered blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Ants first captured the attention of software engineers in the early 1990s. A single ant cannot do much on its own. But a group of ants 51 can solve complex problems. That inspired people like Marco Dorigo, who is one of the founders of a 52 known as group intelligence.Ants are good at choosing the shortest possible route between a food 53 and their nest. This reminds us of a classic computational travelling-salesman problem. Given a list of cities and their 54 apart, the salesman must find the shortest route needed to visit each city once. As the number of cities 55 , the problem gets more complicated.Ants solve their own problem using chemical signals called pheromones (信息素).When an ant finds food, she takes it back to the nest, 56 a pheromone trail that will attract others. The more ants that 57 the trail, the stronger it becomes. 58 the pheromones evaporate (挥发)quickly, so once all the food has been collected, the trail soon goes cold. This rapid evaporation means long trails are less 59 than short ones, all else being equal. Pheromones thus turn the 60 intelligence of the individual ants into something more powerful.51. A. by the way B. as a wholeC. for some timeD. on the average52. A. field B. profession C. company D. fund53. A. range B. source C. chain D. origin54.

A. interrupted B. limited C. considerable D. unreliablePart V Translation (30 minutes, 10 points)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.One of the keys to speaking English like a native is the ability to use and understand casual expressions, or idioms, American English is full of idioms. You won’t learn these expressions in a standard textbook. But you will hear them all the time in everyday conversations. You’ll also meet them in books, newspapers, magazines, and TV shows.Idioms add color to the language. Master idioms and your speech will be less awkward, less foreign. You’ll also understan d more of that you read and hear. Often a student of English tries to translate idioms word-for-word, or literally. If you do this, you can end up asking, ‖what could this possibly mean?‖ This is why idioms are difficult: they work as groups of words, not as individual words. If you translate each word on its own, you’ll miss the meaning and in many cases end up with nonsense.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are to write in no less than 120 words on the topic of ―What Do I Do to Stay Healthy? ‖. You may base your composition on the Chinese clues given below and put your composition on the ANSWER SHEET.健康的标志是……为了健康，最重要的是要……我个人保持健康的做法是……2011年在职攻读硕士学位全国联考英语试题答案1. CADDB BCDBA11. ADCDB CBDAC21.
