Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions:There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there arefour choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the bestchoice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with asingle line through the center.Passage OneNormally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of 36 courses, each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes perweek for fifteen weeks. While attending a university a student will probably attend 4 or 5 courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take 4 years attending 2 semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during the degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes pressure from the strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find timefor great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example by cheating, has to appear before a student court. With enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity.A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him or her later in his or her career.21. Normally a student would at least attend __________ classes each week.A. 10B. 12C. 15D. 2022. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed _______.A.to live in a different universityB.to take a particular course in a different universityC.to live at home and drive to classesD.to get two degrees from two different universities23. American university students are usually under pressure of work because______.A.their academic performance will affect their future careers.B.they are heavily involved in student affairsC.they have to observe university disciplineD.they want to run for positions of authority in student organizations24. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probablybecause_____.A.they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB.they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC.such positions help them get better jobsD.such positions are usually well paid25. The student organizations seem to be effective in ___________.A.dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB.ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC.evaluating students, performance by bring them before a courtD.keeping up the students, enthusiasm for social activities.Passage TwoIt’s very interesting to note where the debate about diversity(多样化) is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool of potential employees. And in looking at where birth rates are growing and at where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women, and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that doesn’t occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the businessmanagers they will need.Like wise, I don't hear people in the academy saying, ―Let’s go backward. Let’s go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy(不拘一格选人才)‖ (which was never true-we never had a meritocracy, although we’ve come closer to it in the last 30 years). I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus has doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined the community, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus. Now, all of us feel the university is better because of the diversity. So where we hear this debate is primarily in political circles and in the media –not in corporate board rooms or on college campuses.36. The word ―imperative‖ (Para.1) most probably refers to something___________.A. superficialB. remarkableC. debatableD. essential37. Which of the following groups of people still differ in their views on diversity?A. MinoritiesB. Politicians.C. ProfessorsD. Managers.38. High corporate leaders seem to be in favor of promoting diversity so as to____________.A. lower the rate of unemploymentB. win equal political rights for minoritiesC. be competitive in the world marketD. satisfy the demands of a growing population39. It can be inferred from the passage that _____________.A. meritocracy can never be realized without diversityB. American political circles will not accept diversityC. it is unlikely that diversity will occur in the U.S. mediaD. minorities can only enter the fields where no debate is heard about diversity40. According to the passage diversity can be achieved in American society by___________.A. expanding the pool of potential employeesB. promoting policies that provide skills to employeesC. training more engineers, scientists, lawyers and business managers.D. providing education for all regardless of race or sexPassage ThreeDrug-taking is widespread. It is apparently very easy for sportsman and sportswomen to get drugs. The strangest thing about the use of drugs in sports is the fact that there is no real evidence to show that they improve athletic performance. And they can cause liver cancer, and have led to the death of two world-class athletes.Now taking urine samples of athletes is practiced worldwide, yet drug-taking remains a serious problem. To fight it, the Sports Council in Britain has started in-and-out-of-competition of drug testing program. Before, competitions were tested at random, which means a few people were selected without knowing beforehand. This was mostly done during matches. Now, athletescan be tested when they train as well. This way the authorities will be able to catch more drug-takers, who will never know beforehand when they have to take a drugs test.Many people think of drugs as something only found in chemicals. But even cough medicine, alcohol and caffeine which is found in coffee, are considered drugs if a test shows an athlete has taken too much. Of course, an athlete is allowed to drink coffee. For some drugs, a certain amount is permitted. For other drugs, such as steroids( 类固醇), any amount in urine samples leads to a ban.41. It is implied in the passage that _________.A. drugs are losing their market in the sports circleB. fewer and fewer athletes are taking drugs nowadaysC. sportsmen lose in competition as a result of drug-takingD. drugs don’t seem to make athletes perform better in competition42. What is new about the drug testing program as compared with the previouspractice?A. Urine samples are taken and tested.B. Athletes are selected and tested during and after the competition.C. More athletes are selected to be tested during matches.D. Athletes are tested in training as well as during competition for testing43. To make the result of the drug test negative, sportsmen must _________beforetaking a test.A. avoid being selected for testingB. not take much medicineC. give up drinkingD. limit intake of liquids also considered to be drugs44. What happens when steroids is found in urine samples?A. Competitors are banned from participating in sports events.B. Competitors are expelled from their teams.C. Drinks containing the drug are removed from the market.D. Drinks containing the drug are destroyed.45. According to the passage, the main reason why drug-taking is not permitted forsportsmen is that _________.A. it does harm to their healthB. it makes them make progress too rapidlyC. they cheat the audience without showing their real skillsD. they are naturally strong enough themselvesPassage FourNative Americans from the southeastern part of what is now the United States believed that the universe in which they lived was made up of three separate, but related, worlds: the Upper World, the Lower World, and This World. In the last there lived humans, most animals, and all plants. This world, a round island resting on the surface of waters, was suspended from the sky by four cords attached to the island at the four cardinal points of the compass. Lines drawn to connect the opposite points of the compass, from north to south and from east to west, intersected This World to divide it into four wedge-shaped segments. Thus a symbolic representation of the human world was a cross within a circle, the cross representing the intersecting lines and the circle—the shape of This World.Each segment of This World was identified by its own color.According to Cherokee doctrine, east was associated with the color red because it was the direction of the Sun, the greatest deity of all. Red was also the color of fire, believed to be directly connected with she Sun, with blood, and therefore with life. Finally, red was the color of success. The west was the Moon segment, it provided no warmth and was not life-giving as the Sun was. So its color was black. North was the direction of cold, and so its color was blue (sometimes purple), and it represented trouble and defeat. South was the direction of warmth; its color, white, was associated with peace and happiness.The sou theastern Native Americans’ universe was one in which opposites were constantly at war with each other, red against black, blue against white. This world hovered(徘徊)somewhere between the perfect order and predictability of the UpperWorld and the total disorder and instability of the Lower World. The goal was to find some kind of halfway path, or balance, between those other worlds.46. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.One Civilization’s View of the UniverseB.The Changing of the Seasons in the SoutheastC.The Painting of Territorial Maps by Southeaster Native AmericansD.The War Between Two Native American Civilizations47. The author implies that This World was located____.A. inside the Upper WorldB. inside the Lower WorldC. above the Upper WorldD. between the Upper World and the Lower World48. According to the passage southeastern Native Americanscompared This Worldto the ____.A. WatersB. skyC. an animalD. an island49. According to the passage, southeastern native Americans associated red with all of the following EXCEPT _____.A. fireB. troubleC. bloodD. success50. The shape of This World is closest to that of which of the following?A. A circle.B. A triangle.C. A Square.D. A cube.III.

Select the correctchoice for each blank.Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have 81 how difficult it is to write a 82 children’s book. Either the author has aimed too 83 , so that the children can’t follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 84 the story seems to be talking to the readers.The best c hildren’s books are 85 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 86 who hears the story and the adult who 87 it.Unfortunately, there are in fact 88 books like this, 89 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 90 to solve.This may be why many of books regarded as 91 of children’s literature were in fact written for 92 . Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland is perhaps the most 93 of this.Children, left for themselves, often 94 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or 95 and he will 96 willinglychoose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children’s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the 97 of teachers and right-thinking parents.Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash children into 98 our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so99 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the 100 books. So I suppose we’ll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.81.

北京成人本科英语真题2007年11月Part ⅠReading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements, For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point: work is helpful to health,Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (76) Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill. Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(77) From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1. The underlined word "average" in Paragraph 1 means ______.A.healthyzyC.ordinaryD.poor答案：C这道题属于词汇细节题，考查在句子语境中对词汇的理解。

Whenever we turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine, we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type of orange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us to notice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us want what they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed to advertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisements everywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part of our everyday lives. But do that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that the special power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attention to it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising company for many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected by them. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lower our defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in and stored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that the effects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of time they have a powerful effect on the masses.A market analyst says that all advertising, no matter how innocent, is misleading in some way.When asked about the power of advertising in research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almost everyone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of ads they see every day affect them.【】51. Ads exist to make people want .A. a new type of orange juiceB. X-brand jeansC. to watch the latest filmD. what they advertise【】52. The more we see ads, the less we .A. pay attention to themB. feel tired of themC. neglect themD. put up with them【】53. Although we may think we are not affected by them, Dr. Krugman believes that advertisements affect .A. all of usB. most of usC. some of usD. a few individuals【】54. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing ads, we begin to .A. like themB. be on guard against themC. accept themD. dislike them【】55. When asked about the power of ads, most people agree that ads are ineffective on .A. individualsB. massesC. othersD. themPassage 2Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.”【】56. From the passage, we understand that .A.the author did not understand the importance of giving until hewas in late thirtiesB.the author was like most people who were mostly receiversrather than giversC.the author received the same education as most people duringhis childhoodD.the author liked most people as they looked upon life as aprocess of getting【】57. According to the author .A.giving means you will lack moneyB.the excitement of giving can bring you moneyC.you don’t have to be rich in order to giveD.when you give away money, you will be rich【】58.The author wrote a note of appreciation to the post office because.A. he knew what such a note would mean to the post office.B. he had discovered giving-away made life all the more exciting.C.he believed he would get something back by doing so.D.the postman delivered an important letter in time.【】59. When the author needed a post office box, .A.he had to put his name on a waiting listB.he wrote the postmaster a note of appreciationC.many people had applied for post-office boxes before himD.he asked the postmaster to make one for him【】60. In reply to the postmaster’s question, the author said .A.it was the special deliveryB.it was the post-office boxC.it was the note of appreciation he wroteD.it was he who wrote him a letter a year agoPassage 3Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest years for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33 percent―from 8.8 million to 11.7 million―according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.”Said Arnold E.Bender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London. “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. “T he literature,”says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.【】61. The passage is mainly concerned with .A. a study of the Chicago-based Market Research CorporationB.one of life’s essentialstest figures of people who don’t eat breakfastD.breakfast and human health【】62. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that .A.several studies have been done in the past few yearsB.not eating breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC.adults have especially made studies in this fieldD.eating little in the morning may be good for health【】63. In the third paragraph, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” means .A.anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB.not giving people breakfast improves performanceC.people having breakfast do improve their performanceD.having breakfast does not improve performance, either【】64. The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to .A.stories about breakfastB.written works on a particular subjectC.any printed materialsD.the modern novels of American【】65. What is implied but not stated by the author is that .A.not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenB.breakfast does not affect performanceC.Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition inLondonD.People who don’t eat breakfast have increasedPassage 4Each day, computers help millions of people do their jobs more effectively. For example, they can help managers decide on a future course of action, and they can then help with the follow-up checks on performance to see if planned goals are being achieved. By using accurate and timely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do a better job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not need to spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggered report if actural performance varies from what was planned. The time saved in controlling may allow managers to give more attention to employees’ concerns, and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气)。

Each passage is followed by a number of questions for comprehension. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.Passage OneSea horses are unusual animals. The female sea horses lay the eggs, but unlike other creatures, it's the males that give birth to the young.Male sea horses have a fold of skin on their bellies that forms a pocket, called a brood pouch (育儿袋) . During the breeding season, the sea horse's pouch swells to receive eggs. A female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time in the pouch. Then she swims off, leaving her male partner to care for the developing eggs and give birth to young sea horses. The female will return every day to check on her mate and the eggs, but she doesn't stay long, nor does she take part in the birth.It takes about six weeks for the eggs in the male's pouch to develop. During this time the male avoids open water and hides in sea grass. His big pouch makes it difficult for him to swim, so the male often uses his tail to grasp a piece of sea grass. Firmly gripping the grass, he will stay perfectly still for hours or even days. The male sea horse will change his color to blend with his surroundings and avoid being seen by eaters who will try to eat him or poke holes in his pouch to get the eggs.The eggs hatch inside the male's pouch. When the babies begin moving around, the male sea horse knows it's time for them to be born. He grabs a sea grass stem with his tail and begins rocking, bending his body back and forth. This causes the opening to enlarge until it is wide enough for the first baby sea horse to shoot out. The father sea horse continues rocking, bending, and stretching his body so that the rest of the babies can be born. Sometimes he has to press his pouch against a rock or some stiff seaweed to force the young out.Usually it takes two days for the father sea horse to give birth to all his young. He is very tired when it's over.36. Which fact does the author want you to remember most?A. Baby sea horses are born in groups of five or more.B. The female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time.C. The male sea horse gives birth to the young.D. The female will return every day to check on the eggs.37. What important part does the female sea horse play in having babies?A. Laying the eggs.B. Checking the eggs.C. Protecting the eggs.D. Hatching the eggs.38. To protect himself and his eggs, the male sea horse does all the following EXCEPT .A. changing his colorB. gripping a piece of grassC. staying motionlessD. enlarging his pouch39. The author suggests when sea horse babies are ready to be born .A. the male sea horse seems very happyB. it is difficult for them to come outC. the female sea horse joins the maleD. they need large space in the pouch40. What can you learn from the article about giving birth to baby sea horses?A. It is most dangerous for the female.B. It happens only once every ten years.C. It is hard work for the male.D. It happens only in the deepest part of the ocean.Passage TwoA scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain data both on resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.If an economist was asked which of the three groups borrow most ---people with rising incomes, stable incomes or declining incomes ---he would probably answer: those with declining income. Actually, in the years 1947-1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional ideas about earning and spending are not always reliable.Another traditional idea is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will hurry to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The typical attitude was expressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices, "In a few months," she said, "we'll have to pay more for meat and milk; we'll have less to spend on other things." Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. Furthermore, the rise in prices that has already taken place may arouse resentment and buyer's resistance may be aroused. This is shown by the following typical comment: "I just don't pay these prices; they are too high."The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America. Investigations conducted at the same time in Great Britain, however, produced results that were more in agreement with traditional ideas about saving and spending patterns. The condition most conducive (有助于) to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, and they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of keeping stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology.41. It can be inferred that to predict how consumers will spend their money, one should .A. rely on traditional approachesB. try to encourage or discourage consumersC. carry out investigationsD. do researches in a laboratory first42. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Consumers' behavior in time of price increase.B. Price increase stimulates people to hasten to buy things.C. What consumers normally buy when they expect prices to go up?D. Consumers' attitude towards price change.43. According to the survey, if Englishmen expect prices to go up, they will .A. spend lessB. buy moreC. buy only what they needD. postpone buying44. From the results of the surveys, the writer concludes that .A. maintaining stable prices is a correct business policyB. the saving and spending patterns in Great Britain are better than those in AmericaC. the consumers always expect prices to remain stableD. consumers should adapt to the change of prices45. Which of the following statements is always TRUE according to the surveys mentioned in the passage?A. Consumers will put off buying things if they expect price to decrease.B. Consumer behavior is influenced by the price condition.C. Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect prices to increase.D. Traditional ideas about earning and spending are reliable.Passage ThreeThe youthful addiction to mobile phones that dismays so many parents and teachers could be providing a big benefit that "mobiles" could be turning teenagers away from tobacco.Smoking has declined among British teenagers from 30% in 1996 to 23% in 1999 while ownership of the ubiquitous ( 到处存在的) mobile phones among 15-17-year-olds rose rapidly to 70% by August 2000.Adults say their mobile phones are the only way they can keep in touch with work, family and friends. But for teenagers the pocket-sized devices are smart, stylish and adult. And like cigarettes, they are important in socializing. Pre-paid cards for mobiles a popular alternative to monthly bills could be consuming teens' pocket money that might otherwise go for cigarettes. Anne Charlton, professor of the University of Manchester, has even noted a similarity between mobile marketing and tobacco campaigns. "Mobile phones are marketed in a similar way to cigarettes with a sales pitch that focuses on self-image, identity and confidence," she said in a statement. Clive Bates and Anne Charlton stressed that at this stage it is only a hypothesis (假设) . But they believe it is a plausible one.The health hazards of smoking are well documented but the potential risks of using a mobile phone are still uncertain. Some researchers have suggested that they can cause brain damage and that the young are particularly easy to be affected. "With smoking you have a very visible body count. In the UK there are about 120,000 ---in the world there are about four million deaths a year from smoking-related diseases," Bates said.46. By "mobiles could be turning teenagers away from tobacco" in Paragraph 1, the author means ______.A. teenagers are probably more addicted to mobile phones than smokingB. teenagers do not carry tobacco with them when they travel by carC. teenagers usually smoke a lot when they drive automobilesD. teenagers have to stop smoking when they use their mobile phones47. The ownership of mobile phones among teenagers went up rapidly mainly because .A. teenagers know nothing about the danger of using mobile phonesB. mobile phones are getting more important in socializingC. teenagers have realized the danger of smokingD. mobile phones are much cheaper than they used to be48. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Mobile phones and cigarettes are marketed in completely different ways.B. The declining of smoking and the rising of mobiles are just a coincidence.C. Adults and teenagers think differently about mobile phones.D. Many parents and teachers welcome the youthful addiction to mobile phones.49. The underlined word “plausible” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .A. strangeB. unreasonableC. unbelievableD. reasonable50. Concerning the disadvantages of using mobile phones, the author implies that .A. people know little about the health hazards of mobiles nowB. mobiles have fewer health hazards than smoking doesC. people are certain about the health hazards of mobilesD. mobiles are a big waste of money for teenagers at schoolPassage FourA person may have an idea about himself that will prevent him from doing good work. He may have the idea that he is not capable of it. A child may think he is stupid because he does not understand how to make the most of his mental faculties, or he may accept another person's mistaken estimate of his ability. Older people may be handicapped by the mistaken belief that they are incapable of learning anything new because of their age.A person who believes that he is incapable will not make a real effort, because he feels that it would be useless. He won't go at a job with the confidence necessary for success. He is therefore likely to fail, and the failure will strengthen his belief in his incompetence.Alfred Adler, a famous doctor, had an experience which illustrates this. When he was a small boy he got off to a poor start in arithmetic. His teacher got the idea that he had no ability in arithmetic and told his parents what she thought in order that they would not expect too much of him. In this way, they too developed the idea, "Isn't it too bad that Alfred can't do arithmetic?" He accepted their mistaken estimate of his ability, felt that it was useless to try, and was very poor at arithmetic, just as they expected.One day Adler succeeded in solving a problem which none of the other students had been able to solve. This gave him confidence. He rejected the idea that he couldn't do arithmetic and was determined to show them that he could. His new found confidence stimulated him to go at arithmetic problems with a new spirit. He now worked with interest, determination and purpose, and he soon became extraordinarily good at arithmetic.This experience made him realize that many people have more ability than they think they have, and that lack of success is as often the result of lack of knowledge of how to apply one's ability, lack of confidence and lack of determination as it is the result of lack of ability.51. According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?A. A child may accept another person's underestimate of his ability.B. A child may think he is too young to make the most of his mental faculties.C. A person may have the idea that he is incapable of doing good work.D. Some old people don't believe that they are capable of learning anything new.52. A person who believes in his incompetence will .A. make no real effortsB. fail to go at a jobC. show a complete lack of confidenceD. all of the above53. As a boy, Alfred Adler was poor at arithmetic because .A. he lost his self-confidenceB. he was mentally retardedC. his teacher had no confidence in herselfD. his parents expected too much of him54. Which of the following is the most important factor to Adler’s success?A. Spirit and experience.B. Interest.C. Confidence and determination.D. Purpose and knowledge.55. Adler’s experience made him realize that .A. people are not as capable as they thinkB. lack of ability results in lack of determinationC. lack of knowledge leads to failureD. people can be more capable than they think机密*启用前2007年天津市高等院校“高职升本科”招生统一考试英语第Ⅱ卷(非选择题共55分)注意事项：1．答第Ⅱ卷前，考生须将密封线内的项目填写清楚。

Wheneverwe turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine,we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type oforange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us tonotice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us wantwhat they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed toadvertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisementseverywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part ofour everyday lives. But does that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that thespecial power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attentionto it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising companyfor many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected bythem. D. Krugman believe that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lowerour defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in andstored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that theeffects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of timethey have a powerful effect on the masses.When asked about the power of advertisingin research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almosteveryone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of adsthey see every day affect them.51. Ads exist to make people want ________ .A. a new type of orangejuiceB. X-brand jeansC. to watchthe latest filmD. what they advertise52. The more we see ads, the less we ________ .A. pay attention tothemB. feel tired of theC.neglect themD. put upwith them53.

When asked about the power of ads, mostpeople agree that ads are ineffective on ________ .A.individualsB. massesC.othersD. themPassage 2Like most people, I was brought up to lookupon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that Imade this important discovery giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need notworry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an ideafor improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I stepin and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made aboutgiving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this worldwithout getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpectedform. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important specialdelivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrotethe postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a postoffice box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window thatthere were no boxes left, and that myname would have to go on a long waitinglist. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He hadoverheard our conversation. “Wasn't it you that wrote us that letter a year agoabout delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “ Well, youcertainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make onefor you. You don't know what a letter like that means to us. We usually getnothing but complaints.”56. From the passage, we understand that________ .A. the author did not understand theimportance of giving until he was in late thirtiesB. the author was like most peoplewho were mostly receivers rather than giversC. the author received the sameeducation as most people during his childhoodD. the author liked most people asthey looked upon life as a process of getting57. According to the author ________.A. giving means you will lack moneyB. the excitement of giving canbring you moneyC. you don't have to be rich inorder to giveD. when you give away money, youwill be rich58. The author wrote a note of appreciationto the post office because ________ .A. he knew what such a note wouldmean to the post office.B. he had discovered giving-awaymade life all the more exciting.C. he believed he would getsomething back by doing so.D. the postman delivered an importantletter in time.59. When the author needed a post officebox, ________ .A. he had to put his name on awaiting listB. he wrote the postmaster a note ofappreciationC. many people had applied forpost-office boxes before himD. he asked the postmaster to makeone for him60. In reply to the postmaster's question,the author said ________ .A. it was the specialdeliveryB. it was the post-office boxC. it was the note of appreciationhe wroteD.it was he who wrote him a letter a year agoPassage 3Generations of Americans have been broughtup to believe that a good breakfast is one of life's essentials. Eatingbreakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary asputting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of foodfirst thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all theefforts, the still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest yearsfor which figures are available, the number of people who didn't have breakfastincreased by 33 percent-from 8.8 million to 11.7 million-according to theChicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about noteating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the lastfew years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong withomitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.” saidA mold E. Bender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth Collegein London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast tobetter health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of therecent work involves children, not adults. “The literature,” says one researcher,Dr. Emesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.61. The passage is mainly concernedwith ________ .A. a study of theChicago-based Market Research CorporatioB. one of life's essentialsC. latest figures of peoplewho don't eat breakfastD. breakfast and human health62. For those who do not take breakfast,the good news is that ________ .A. several studies have beendone in the past few yearsB. not eating breakfast does no harm toone's healthC. adults have especially made studies inthis fieldD. Eating little in the morning may be good forhealth63. In the third paragraph, “nor doesgiving people breakfast improve performance,” means ________ .A. anyone without breakfastdoes improve his performanceB. not giving people breakfastimproves performanceC. people having breakfast do improvetheir performanceD. having breakfast does not improve performance,either64. The word “literature” in the lastsentence refers to ________ .A. stories aboutbreakfastB. written works on a particular subjectC. any printedmaterialsD. the modern novels of American65. What is implied but not stated by theauthor is that ________ .A. not eating breakfast mightaffect the health of childrenB. breakfast does not affectperformanceC. Professor Bender oncetaught college courses in nutrition in LondonD. People who don't eatbreakfast have increasedPassage 4Each day, computers help millions of peopledo their jobs more effectively. For example, they canhelp managers decide on afuture course of action, and they can then help with the follow up checks onperformance to see if planned goals are being achieved. By using accurate andtimely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do abetter job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not needto spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggeredreport if actual performance varies from what was planned. The time saved incontrolling may allow managers to give more attention to employees' concerns,and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气).But employment benefits certainly aren't restrictedto managers. Healthcare researchers and other scientists also use computers toconduct research into complex problem areas that couldn't otherwise be wyers use online legal data banks to locate precedent(先前的) cases inorder to serve clients better. Salespeople can receive more timely informationabout products in stock, can promise customers that their sales orders will behandled promptly, and can thus improve their sales performance because of thecomputer system. And the job duties of some office and factory workers havechanged from routine, repetitive operations to more varied and appealing tasksthrough computer usage. For example, office workers who understand textprocessing, computing, and data communication usually have vital roles and aregiven critical office functions to perform.66. Which of the following examples showsthe controlling function of a computer?A. Helping managers decide ona future course of actionB. Helping managers check ifplanned goals are reachedC. Helping managers save timein writing a reportD. Helping managers design aspreadsheet package67. Employees may have better morale if________ .A. they have more time torestB. a computer is used in their workC. the manager spends moretime with themD. themanagers pay more attention to them68. Which of the following is the mostessential to a successful businessman?A. He can use computers in hiswork.B. He can handle orders promptly.C. He can get timelyinformation.D. He can improve his sales performance.69. The office duties used to be ________ .A.difficultB.boringC. heavyD. appealing70. Which of the following is the bestsuggested title?A.

专转本大学英语第I卷（共100分）Part I Reading Comprehension （共40分）（18分）Passage one(12分钟）Under 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.1. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the .A. heigt of the hillB. speed of soundC. distance to the hillD. intensite of sound2. Practical applications of this principles resulted in .A. New electronic instruments for planesB. A radio directing and ranging deviceC. New radio sets for RAF bombersD. An electronic detecting device3. Radar enabled the English to .A. Detect German planes on their way to LondonB. Direct the outnumbered RAF planes effectivelyC. Confuse German bomber pilotsD. Both A and B4.It can be inferred from the passage that1A. 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 Two accident（意外，事件）In general, the ancientRomans 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 ironore, 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 (妨碍) by the rigidity of their numerical system. (Try to multiply XI by LVII or to 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 with2A. Theoretical or abstract thoughtB. applied mathematicsC. StudyingD. either A or C8.In construction, the Romans made extensive use ofA. Iron oreB. geometry and trigonometryC. StudyingD. both B and C9.Many Romans inventions were based on Greek weapons because theA. Greeks had superior weaponsB romines 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 why AA. 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 thought11. the pew study was conducted in C (A)Passage 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 and e-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 computer 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 Americantold Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them major life decisions.3Thanks to the computer. “networked individuals” are able to be alone and together with other people-at the same time!A. the United StatesB. CanadaC. the U.S. and CanadaD. Europe12. in the article, a network is a group of connected CA. radio or TV stationsB. peopleC. computersD. roads13. before the invention of the Internet, our connections with people tool place mainly D (A)A. in personB. by phoneC. by letterD. by e-mail14. Which of the following has happened since the invention of the Internet and email? BA. 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? DA. 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 othe r questions.C. For many Americans, the Internet plays an important role in helping them make important decisions.D. “Internet addiction” is a growing problem among people who use computers.Passage fourSummers 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.416. What was the original reason for holding the summer school?A. The father wanted the children to learn more about religion.B. The children got poor grades in their regular school.C.

For him, it’s the thrill of doing things that have never been done before. He also enjoys testing his own endurance and skills.Altogether, Fossett has 115 world records and world firsts to his name. His most recent success came in February 2006 when he broke the world’s flight distance record. He traveled more than 26,000 miles in 76 hours.Surprisingly, 62-year-old Fossett is not strong or athletic, but he is very persistent. His efforts to complete the first solo hot-air balloon ride round the world show his determination. He made sixattempts over five years and finally succeeded in 2002.Fossett developed his appetite for adventure early. At the age of 11, he started rock climbing. While he was a student at Stanford University, he spent his summers climbing mountains and doing endurance swims throughout Europe.After graduating from Stanford, Fossett earned a master’s degree in business from Washington University in St. Louis. In 1968, he began making his fortune as a stock trader in Chicago. By the late 1980s, he had become a millionaire. But, he spent his free time participating in endurance sports. In 1990, he finally decided to become afull-time adventurer and a part-time businessman.Fossett participated in numerous endurance competitions, including skiing, biking, swimming and car racing. But in the mid-1990s, Fossett began to change his focus. Instead of simply finishing races, he wanted to set word records.Fossett focused on sailing and aviation.

What is probably the best title for this passage?A. Hobbies in Spare TimeB. Life of Steve FossettC. Hunger for AdventureD. A Strange MillionaireQuestions 33 to 35 are based on the following passage.A supersonic airliner like Concorde flies at twice the speed of sound. A passenger can leaveLondon at noon and arrive in New York at ten o’clock that same morning! There is a five-hour time difference between the two cities and Concorde can fly the Atlantic in only three hours. That evening the passenger will feel it is time to go to bed when it is only six o’clock. The evening will only just be beginning. Airline pilots suffer fromthis very much. It may be in the middle of the night in Hong Kong but their stomachs are still on London time, where it is dinner time. Pilots and other airline crew have to adjust to constant changes in time. That is why they often look fifty years old when they are only forty. This adjustment to sudden changes causes all sorts of problems.Air travel is getting faster all the time. Engineers say that soon people will be “shot” to theirdestinations in huge rockets. These rockets will be shot high above the earth’s atmosphere and land on the other side of the earth forty-five minutes after take-off. They will be able to cross the Pacific Ocean in only eighteen minutes.But, of course, passengers will face the same problems on the ground that they face at present.We shall still spend hours getting to the airport. Today, the shortest part of the journey and the least difficult is in the air. The worst and longest part is on the roads leading from the center of town to the airport. The roads become more and more crowded while our planes become faster and faster.33. In a plane like Concorde you can ________.A. arrive in New York 5 hours earlier than the time you leave LondonB. forget all about the time difference between citiesC. adjust to time changes without problemsD. get across the Atlantic in three hours34. Pilots often look older than they really are because ________.A. they eat dinner in the middle of the nightB. they suffer a lot from the changes in timeC. they have to work at the weekendD. they live far away from the airport35. According to the passage, we can see that ________.A. the speed of sound is only half that of a ConcordeB. the rocket is the fastest and least difficult means of travelC. a supersonic plane can fly the Pacific in only eighteen minutesD. people will spend less time on the ground as air travel is getting fasterPart III ClozeDirections: There is a passage in this part with 10 blanks in it.

Geographerscompare and contrast various places on the earth. But they also go beyond the individual placesand consider the earth as a 36.The word geography 37 _ from twoGreek words, gee, the Greek word for” earth" and graphein, 38 means"to write.” The English word geography means "to describe the earth.”Some geography books focus on a small area like a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation,or a 39 continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another way to dividethe study of 40 is to distinguish between physicalgeography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world;the 41. Starts with human beings andstudies how human beings and their environment act upon each other. But whengeography is considered as a single subject, _ 42 branches can neglectthe other.A geographer might be described 43 onewho observes, records, and explains the differences between places. If places 44 alike,there would be little need for geographers.We know, however 45 notwo places are exactly the same.Geography, then, is a point of view,a specialway of looking at places.36.

For each question or statementthere are 4 choices. You should make thecorrect choice and put the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.I remember quite clearly the first time Iwas really shaken by my wife's intuition.We were looking; for a second-hand car,and I had been much taken by a rather nice drop-head with a well-cared-forappearance."Well, she runs nicely,” I told mywife after the try-out. “Good start-up,engine sounds sweet, low mileage and the right price. What do you think?""I don't like it“Why not?""I don’t know.Ther e’s just something about lie salesmanthat I don’t believe.A few weeks after we had bought anothercar elsewhere, I happened to find out the history of the drop-head. It had beenseriously damaged in a crash before we saw it, and cleverly done up. The carwas, indeed, a very bad risk.Of all the things about women that theirhusbands do not understand, perhaps the biggest question is this: How can sheoften be right about things of which she has absolutely no knowledge? How doesa woman’s intuition wor k? What is this strange power that tells her exactlywhen her husband isn’t working late on business, however honest he pretends tobe? Is it guesswork, or some sixth sense that men don't have?46. When was the"first time" the husband felt "really shaken" by his wife'sintuition?A. When they bought another car.B. When he learned about the historyof the drop-head.C. When he realized she knew so muchabout cars.D. When his wife spoke about thesalesman.47.

Things which were consideredimpolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it wasconsidered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on the street. No man whothought of himself as being a gentleman would make a fool of himself by smokingwhen a lady was in a room.Customs also differ from country tocountry. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country?Or doesn’t it matter? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Shouldleave one in your lap or on the table?The Americans and the British not onlyspeak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. Forexample, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet eachother for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman oroffer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness isimportant both in England and in America. That is, if a dinner invitation isfor 7 0' clock, the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls upto explain his delay.The importantthing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might makeother people feel uncomfortable-especially if they are your guests. When thefood was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. Theother guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knifeand began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make hisguest feel foolish or uncomfortable.51. If one hasaccepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is to be late for thedinner?A.

It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what the causes of stress inourlife are, and whether we can do anything about it.Are we under-employed or overburdened withtoo many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure(闲暇)in our lives? Are our relationships withfamily, friends or- fellow workers all they should be?All these things can be a cause ofstress, and it.is.best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations(失意)into the open.People who have a good row and thenforget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle theirfeelings.If our self-examination has brought any causesof stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them.

It is we who allow other people to make ourselvesunhappy. Often the littlethin gs thatdisturb us are not worth an hour's anger.

Don't watch the sun set while you areangryTask 4(3 points each, 15 points inall)Directions: This task is the same as Task l(No.61 through No.65).Scientists have developed a slimming (减肥) drug that successfully suppresses appetite andresults in a dramatic loss of weight without any apparent ill effects.The drug interferes with appetite controland prevents the build-up of fatty tissue. Laboratory mice given the drug lostup to a third of their total body weight.Within 20 minutes of being given thedrug, called C75, the mice lost interest in eating and survived apparentlycontent on just 10 percent of the food they would normally eat.As a result, mice taking the drug lost45 percent more weight than mice fed the same amount of food, which compensatefor the lack of food by becoming more lazy.Scientists, from the Johns HopkinsUniversity in Baltimore, said that C75 is likely to produce a similar effect onhumans because appetite control in brain is thought to be based on the, samechemical pathways as those in mice." We are not claiming to havefound a fabled(神奇的) weight-lossdrug. What we have found, using C75, isa major pathway in the brain that body uses naturally in regulating appetite atleast in mice," said Francis Khaddar, a pathologist and senior teammember.61. The newly-developed drug __ .A. controls appetite and causes obviousweight loss.B. reduces weight with some ill-effectC. interferes with appetite and builds upfatty tissueD. is still going through laboratory tests62. One of the reasonsthat the drug helps to lose weight is that _.A. it helps mice sleepwellB. it keeps fattytissue from growingC. it controlseatingD. it prevents overeating63.

C75 is likely toproduce weight-loss effect on humans because .A. mice and humans have similar brainstructureB. humans are likely to be more lazy thanmiceC. human's appetite is regulated throughthe same pathway as mice'sD. mice and human body use differentpathways of appetite control65. What is theattitude of the scientists toward the slimming drug?A. indifferentB. excitingC. negativeD. confidentⅣ.Translation (35 points)(I) Translate thefollowing sentences from English into Chinese (4 points each for No. 66 throughNo. 68; 6 points for No. 69; 18 points in all).66.

Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneLearning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.“Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience… not to be inhibited(拘谨；抑制)… not to be nervous…”Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowdays, you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.It is the same in writing. (81)The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ll read what you wrote. Y ou must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out to the person at the other end of the line.Of course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. Y ou can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or he r. But that effort is necessary or at least it’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously “talk on paper.”41. The main task of public speech course is to .A. teach spoken language expressionsB. teach how to use gestures to assist speechC. help the learners overcome nervousnessD. teach how to control the volume of the speaker’s voice42. Learning how to write is similar to learning how to speak in public in that a writer should .A. overcome his or her nervousness in the first placeB. watch his or her grammar and vocabularyC. collect a lot of dats before writingD. take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing43. In the author’s opinion, .A. writing needs more experience and skill than public speakingB. both writing and public speaking require effortC. writing is imaginativeD. public speaking is not so natural as writing44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Not many students feel the need to learn public speaking.B. Training is necessary before you can speak with a script.C. In public speaking ,the audience are more nervous than the speaker.D. Writing is just like making a public speech on paper.45. This selection is mainly about learning how to .A. make a public speechB. talk on paperC. behave properly in public speechD. express strong emotions on paper Passage TwoIn the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. (82)Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. V aluable amounts of minerals such as iron, nickel and copper exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by oriental peoples.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydro electric power.Technology is enabling man to explore ever deeper under the sea. The new underseateachnology is providing divers with diving suits and undersea chambers that are kept at sea level pressure. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year 2000, experts believe that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.46. What is the best title for the passage?A. Needs of ManB. Sources of EnergyC. Sea HarvestD. Sea Exploring Technology47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because .A. man cannot travel farther into spaceB. resources on land are running shortC. it’s a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used to explore the sea48. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ship.C. To argue that man should use steamships more than other means of transportation.D. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.49. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. man hasn’t completely cultivated the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been foundC. planting rice in the sea will be made possible in a short timeD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor50. The word “exploit” in the last paragraph could best be replaced by .A. evaluateB. developC. gatherD. scatterPassage ThreeY our passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. In Europe, where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a passport. A passport is final proof of identity in almost every country in the world.In 1979, almost 15 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if you travel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country.When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. Y ou may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket, and check into a hotel or casino. As a passport is an official U.S. document, it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires, or war.Don’t confuse passports and visas. (83) Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and V enezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of thecountry you wish to visit.Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New Y ork, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. To get your first passport, you must submit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures.51. The main purpose of the passage is to .A. discuss traveling in other countriesB. distinguish between passports and visasC. discuss the financial uses of a passportD. provide information about passports52. Passports are beneficial for .A. exchanging currencyB. using a credit cardC. checking into hotelsD. all of the above53. We can infer from the passage that .A. every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenB. not every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenC. only countries like Argentina, Brazil and V enezuela now require visas from U.S. citizensD. countries like Argentina, Brazil and V enezuela only require visas from U.S. citizens54. The passage suggests that .A. most people don’t realize how important passports areB. passports aren’t important once you are in the country you’ve chosen to visitC. passports are simple to obtain through the mailD. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country55. As used in this passage, the word “valid”(Para. 2) means .A. foreignB. legalC. monetaryD. illegalPassage FourI hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. Y ou should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching(抓住) at one another’s hands for reassurance.They claim that they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They are off in new directions in music, but somehow they all end up huddled(拥挤) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting inthusand such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon(茧) into a larger cocoon.(84)It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days, every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents hav e come to award high marks for the popularity of their children.

学位英语历年真题带答案07-04

成人本科学位英语统一考试（A卷）07年04月21日Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.(76) I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer’ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer”.The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? (77 ) I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1. The passage is meant to ______.A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career2. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B. A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D. The chances for writer to become successful are small3. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He wasn’t able to produce a single book.B. He hadn’t seen aching for the better.C. He wasn’t able to have a rest for a who le year.D. He though that he lacked imagination.4. “…people who die wondering: What if ?”(Lin4-5, Para-3) refers to “those _____”.A. who think too much of the dark side of lifeB. who regret giving up their career halfwayC. who think a lot without making a decisionD. who are full of imagination even upon death5. “Shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _____.A. the wonderland on often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reachedD. a world that exists only in one’s imaginationPassage 2uestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Toady, experts believe that nearly two-thirds of the world’s population live within eighty kilometers of the seacoast.(78)In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs in the future.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and g as explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, copper and so on exist on the ocean floor.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. For example, warm temperature of the ocean can be used as the steam in a steamship. Sea may also offer a source of energy as electricity for mankind.Technology is enabling man to explore even deeper under the sea. It is obvious that the technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. (79) By the 2050, experts believe that the problems to explore the food, minerals and energy resources of the sea will have been largel7y solved.6. What is the beat title for the passage?A. Needs of Man.B. Sea Harvest and FoodC. Sea and Sources of EnergyD. Sea Exploring Technology.7. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. man hasn’t completely made use of the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC. harvesting rice in the sea will be made possibleD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor8. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ships.C. To argue that man should use steamships.D. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.9. According to the author, technology is important because ______.A. resources on land are running short in ten yearsB. man can use it to explore the deeper seaC. it is a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used it to explore the sea10. According to the author, when will the problems to explore the deeper sea largely be solved?A. In the next generation.B. By the end of the 20th century.C. In the near future.D. By the middle of the 21st century.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit. About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly. It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women. Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’s smoking habit. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.(80)There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11. What do we know from the first paragraph ?A. More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B. There are more smoking women than smoking men in USA.C. It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D. The U.S. has more smoking people than any other country.12.What factors determine a person’s smoking habits ?A. Age, income and education.B. Age, sex and income.C. Occupation, income and sex.D. Occupation, income and education.13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?A. City people are less likely to smoke.B. People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C. Men with higher income tend to smoke.D. Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.14.What is the smoking situation for women ?A. The situation is quite the same for women as for men .B. Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C. There are more women smokers with low incomes.D. Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ?A. The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B. The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C. High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D. Farmers’ children tend to smoke more.Part ⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D .
