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 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:People say that money cannot buy happiness. This was true for Howard Hughes. (76) He was one of the richest and most powerful men of his time. He had everything: good look success, power, and a lot of money. But he didn’t have love or friendship because he couldn’t buy them. All his life he used his money to control everything and everyone around him. In the end, he lost control of everything, even himself.Howard Hughes was born in 1905 in Houston, Texas. His father started the Hughes Tool Company. He was a workaholic（工作狂）and made a lot of money. He bought everything he wanted. He even gave money to schools so Howard could get into them. From his father, Howard learned to be a successful but merciless businessman. Hughes’s mother, Allene also had a big influence on his life. Howard was her only child. She protected him and gave him everything. Unfortunately Allene had mental problems. (77)She was afraid of germs and diseases. She was obsessed with Howard's health，and he became obsessed with it too.Allene died when Howard was 16 years old. Two years later his father died. Hughes inherited the Hughes Tool Company. Then he married Ella Rice. He and Ella moved to Los Angeles, California. It was there that Howard Hughes began to become a legend （传奇人物）. Hughes began to invest his money in movies. He became an important producer soon after he moved to California. He worked hard, but he also played hard. He became obsessed with power and control. When he couldn’t get something legally, he gave money politicians and businessmen so they would help him. He owned a lot of businesses, including airplane companies, a movie studio（制片厂）, Las Vegas hotels, gold and silver mines, and radio and television stations. Once he bought a television studio so he could watch movies all night He also bought a hotel because he wanted to stay in his favorite room for one weekend.1.Accordign to the passage ,Howard Hughes was not _____.A. good-lookingB. wealthyC. friendlyD. powerful2.

Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive. Even if global warning were to right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem, the reefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）.(78) The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “the rainforests of the sea", because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea life. In addition, the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms.Coral are used in medical research for cures to diseases. They are key to local economies as well, since the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other businesses, bringing in billions of dolllars.（79）Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to drive out the algae（水藻）. Then the corals turn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage. In 1998, when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover.Although reefs face other threats from pollution, industrial activities, and overfishing, it is global climate change that most concerns scientists. Scientists remain hopeful that it’s not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experiments to accomplish that goal.6.

But nowhere in history have students banned（禁止）bottled water. Until now.The bottled water ban, which Parted on just a few campuses, has now spread nationwide to more than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access（获取）to filling stations are a better choice.An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plastic bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water a day costs each person 49 cents annually, while drinking from plastic containers costs $I,400 per year. Plastic bottles contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causes depression, but in large doses can even lead to death.The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations. The makers of bottled water see the movement as a threat. (80) They argue that plastic bottles make UP a small portion of the nation’s total waste. It's unfair to single out （单独挑出）their product when so many other items are packaged in plastic containers. Plus, water is a healthy choice compared to some sodas and juices that arc also sold at school.,11.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A.Many universities ban or restrict the sale of bottled water.B.Many states ban or restrict the sale of bottled water.C.The bottled water industry is concerned about its decreasing sales.D.Many people are opposed to the bottled water ban.12.

2018年5月学位英语真题

2018年5月12日北京地区成人学士学位英语考试Part ⅠReading 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:In 1866, sailors on a German ship called Paula threw a bottle with a message into waters hundreds of miles off the western coast of Australia. One hundred and thirty-one year later, (76) the bottle was found on an Australia island.It’s believed to be the oldest-known message in a bottle, in terms if the amount of time that has passed between when it was written and when it was found. Before this discovery, Guinness(吉尼斯) world Records said that the oldest was 108 years old, found in Germany in 2015. Australian and German researchers worked together to check whether the note is real or not.Tonya Illman was walking on the beach in January when she spotted the old bottle. “I picked it up thinking it might look nice on display in my home,” Illman says, according to an account on her husband’s website.(77) The bottle was partially filled with wet sand. Shortly after, Illman’s son’s girlfriend poured out the contents and found a tightly rolled note covered in a piece of string.Too damp to open initially, according to the account, the group waited for it to dry and were amazed to see that it was carefully handwritten in German. “The first thing that caught my eye was the year 1866,” said Illman’s husband Kym. “It seemed totally unlikely to us that the note and bottle could have lasted that long.”The pair reached out to the Western Australia Museum, which set out to study the document. “Extraordinary finds need extraordinary evidence to support them, so we contacted colleagues in German for help to find more information,” Ross Anderson, who is in charge of works of art in the museum, said in a statement.But this message is no SOS or love letter.1. According to Guinness World Records, the second oldest message was found ________.A. in 2014B. in 2015C. 2017D. in 20162. Which of the following is TRUE?A. A sailor named Paula threw the old bottle into waters in 1866B. Kym found the old bottle firstC. This oldest message was found in GermanyD. The oldest message was 131 years old3.

The note was written in English4. The word damp in Paragraph 4 is closet in meaning to _________.A. wetB. dryC. coolD. hot5. Which of the following is probably the best title for this passage?A. The Oldest-Known Message Found in AustraliaB. The Old-Known Message Found in GermanyC. An Extraordinary Evidence of HistoryD. A Guinness Beer BottlePassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:A handwritten note from Albert Einstein sold for more than $1.5 million at an auction (拍卖会). He gave the note to a hotel porter in Japan in 1922. Einstein was not carrying money when the porter came to his room. (78) He was unable to give a cash tip, as a guest normally would. Instead he gave a tip on how to live life.“A calm and modest life brings more happiness than pursuit of su ccess combined with constant restlessness.” Einstein wrote. The note was written in German. It was written on notepaper from the imperial Hotel in Ginza, Tokyo, where Einstein was delivering a series of lectures.He was travelling to Asia when news that he had won the Nobel Prize for Physics reached him via telegraph. Einstein was unable to attend the prize-giving ceremony in Stockholm.Gal Wiener is head of the auction house in Jerusalem, Israel, where the note was sold. He said Einstein told the hotel porter to keep the note since it will probably be worth more than a regular trip.Bidding(拍卖中的出价) on the note began at $2000. It was expected to sell for no more than $8000. But 25 minutes later, the auction house made the major sale.(79) A second Einstein note was sold at the auction. It went for more than $200,000. “where there a will, there’s a way.” the note says.The identity of the person or group that sold the notes has not been made public. Nor has that of the buyer or buyers.6. The word tip in Line 4 paragraph 1 probably mean _____________.A. adviceB. trickC. newsD. trend7. The note was written in_________.A. EnglishB. JapaneseC. GermanD. French8. Albert Einstein went to Japan to __________.A. visit some friendsB. do some sightseeingC. receive the Nobel PrizeD. give a series of lectures9.

Einstein gave the porter the note instead of a tip.B. The buyer of the second note was a Japanese businessman.C. Einstein learned that he had won the Nobel Prize during his trip to Japan.D. Einstein told the porter to keep the note since it might become valuable.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:In 1950, Helena Rubinstein was one of the richest women in the world. She started with nothing. She had no money, no education, and no one to help her. All she had were 12 jars of face cream and a lot of energy and ambition.

Helena sold them her cream and then ordered more.Helena’s borrowed $1,500 and opened a shop to sell the cream. (80)She worked 18 hours a day, seven days a week. She lived simply and saved all of her profits. She also learned how to make different kinds of creams and showed women how to take care of their skin. It was the first shop of this kind in the world.In less than two years, Rubinstein had paid her loan and saved $50,000. She made more and more money every year. All this time, she thought only of work and success. A newspaper reporter named Edward Titus was in love with her. But she was not interested in him.

This was true for Howard Hughes. (76) He was one of the richest and most powerful men of his time. He had everything: good look success, power, and a lot of money. But he didn’t have love or friendship because he couldn’t buy them. All his life he used his money to control everything and everyone around him. In the end, he lost control of everything, even himself.Howard Hughes was born in 1905 in Houston, Texas. His father started the Hughes Tool Company. He was a workaholic（工作狂）and made a lot of money. He bought everything he wanted. He even gave money to schools so Howard could get into them. From his father, Howard learned to be a successful but merciless businessman. Hughes’s mother, Allene also had a big influence on his life. Howard was her only child. She protected him and gave him everything. Unfortunately Allene had mental problems. (77)She was afraid of germs and diseases. She was obsessed with Howard's health，and he became obsessed with it too.Allene died when Howard was 16 years old. Two years later his father died. Hughes inherited the Hughes Tool Company. Then he married Ella Rice. He and Ella moved to Los Angeles, California. It was there that Howard Hughes began to become a legend （传奇人物）. Hughes began to invest his money in movies. He became an important producer soon after he moved to California. He worked hard, but he also played hard. He became obsessed with power and control. When he couldn’t get something legally, he gave money politicians and businessmen so they would help him.

Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive. Even if global warning were to right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem, the reefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）.(78) The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “the rainforests of the sea", because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea life. In addition, the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms.Coral are used in medical research for cures to diseases. They are key to local economies as well, since the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other businesses, bringing in billions of dolllars.（79）Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to drive out the algae（水藻）. Then the coralsturn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage. In 1998, when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover.Although reefs face other threats from pollution, industrial activities, and overfishing, it is global climate change that most concerns scientists. Scientists remain hopeful that it’s not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experiments to accomplish that goal.6.

But nowhere in history have students banned（禁止）bottled water. Until now.The bottled water ban, which Parted on just a few campuses, has now spread nationwide to more than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access（获取）to filling stations are a better choice.An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plastic bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water a day costs each person 49 cents annually, while drinking from plastic containers costs $I,400 per year. Plastic bottles contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causes depression, but in large doses can even lead to death.The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations. The makers of bottled water see the movement as a threat. (80) They argue that plastic bottles make UP a small portion of the nation’s total waste.

BrandonU. ca/AdmissionsC. BrandonU. ca/Future-StudentsD. BrandonU. ca/Future-Students/ProgramsQuestions 20 to 23 are based on the following passage.Viktor Frankl，a famous Jewish psychiatrist(精神病医生）, wrote his bestselling 1946 book Mans Search for Meaning in nine days about his experiences in Nazi concentration camps. Frankl concluded that the difference between those prisoners who had lived and those who had died came down to one thing ：Meaning, an insight he came to early in life.In 1991, the Library of Congress listed Man5s Search for Meaning as one of the 10 most influential booksin the United States. It has sold millions of copies worldwide. Now, over twenty years later, the book s ideas—its emphasis on meaning, the value of suffering, and responsibility to something greater than the self—seem to be at odds with our culture, which is more interested in the pursuit of individual happiness than in the search for meaning. But happiness cannot be pursued. It follows. One must have a reason to be happy ,” Frankl wrote.According to Gallup, the happiness levels of Americans are at a four-year high. Gallup also reports that nearly 60% of all Americans today feel happy, without a lot of stress or worry. On the other hand, according to the Center for Disease Control, about 4 out of 10 Americans have not discovered a satisfying life purpose. 40% either do not think their lives have a clear sense of purpose or are neutral about whether their lives have purpose. Nearly a quarter of Americans do not have a strong sense of what makes their lives meaningful.Research has shown that having purpose and meaning in life increases overall well-being and life satisfaction, improves mental and physical health, and decreases the chances of depression. On top of that, the single-minded pursuit of happiness is leaving people less happy, according to recent research.20. According to Paragraph 1, we know that Viktor Frankl_____________ .A. wrote his early life experience as a soldierB. lost his hope of seeking the meaning of lifeC. spent nine days in Nazi concentration campsD. survived with the spiritual support of life meaning21. The book’s ideas don't agree with American culture because Americans are more interested in searchingfor____.A. happinessB. meaningC. sufferingD. stress22. The percentage of Americans who don’t have a satisfying life purpose is______________ .A. 25%B. 60%C. 40%D. 10%23. Which of the following is the idea the author intends to convey?A. Mental health is the most important factor in life.B. Pursuit of happiness is the most important thing in life.C. Physical health can be improved if you are happy.D. Realizing the meaning of life is important to happiness.Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage.If you’ve ever lost your wallet (钱包), then you know that it’s a very terrible experience. Most people keep a lot in their wallets. That’s where they keep their drivers license, their credit cards, and all kinds of other important things. Of course，that’s also where most of us keep our cash.We all need cash in our lives. However, something called digital currency is slowly replacing cash. A currency is a kind of money. Usually, we use currency when we talk about a country’s money. For example, the UK is the pound, and the USA is the dollar. If something is digital, it only exists on a computer. So “digital currency” meansmoney that only exists on computers.Lots of people have digital currency accounts. They use a credit card to change their real money into digital money, and then the money goes into the digital currency account. A lot of people wonder, “Why in the world should I change my real money into digital money? ” This is a fair question, but there’s a good answer. If you want to buy something online, then you usually have to use digital currency. For example，if you’re in China and you want to buy something in Canada, then you’ll have to pay with digital currency.Many people still don’t trust digital currency. Some people think that if they can’t hold their money in their hand, then it doesn’t seem real. These people don’t feel comfortable when they see numbers on a computer screen. The computer tells them that their money is safe, but these people don’t feel safe. Another problem is security. There are hackers all over the world. A hacker is a person who steals computer information. If a hacker gets the password of your digital currency account, he or she can steal your money.You have to decide whether or not you trust this new invention. Just remember one thing：If you want to buy something online, then you probably won’t have a choice. You’ll have to use digital money.24. The word “fair”（Para. 3) is closest in meaning to__________ .A. beautifulB. equalC. pleasantD. reasonable25. Which of the following is probably a hacker according to the passage?A. A person who uses a computer to steal things.B. A person who composes computer programs.C. A person who uses a computer to buy things.D. A person who owns a lot of digital currency.' 26. How do those who don’t trust digital currency think about money?A. The money on a computer screen is safe.B. The money in their hand is real.C. Real money is worth more than digital money.D. Real money and digital money are the same.27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Hacker problems in the world.B. Currencies used in particular countries.C. A new kind of money.D. Safety of digital currency.Questions 28 to 31 are based on the following passage.Zoos are hugely popular attractions for adults and children alike. But are they actually a good thing?Critics of zoos would argue that animals often suffer physically and mentally by being enclosed (封闭). Even the best artificial environments can^ come close to matching the space and freedom that animals have in their natural environments. This enclosure causes many zoo animals to become stressed or mentally ill. Capturing animals in the wild also causes much suffering by splitting up families. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally. For example, in some parks dolphins (海豚)are forced to perform tricks, who may die decades earlier than their wild relatives. And some even try to kill themselves.On the other hand, by bringing people and animals together, zoos have the potential to educate the public about conservation issues and inspire people to protect animals and their natural environments. Some zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated by people, or pets which have been abandoned. Zoos also carry out important research into subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illnesses. One of the most important modern functions of zoos is supporting international breeding(繁殖) programmes, particularly for endangered species(种群). In the wild，some of the rarest species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding. A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed in secure environments.So, are zoos good for animals or not? Perhaps it all depends on how well individual zoos are managed, and thebenefits of zoos can surely outweigh their harmful effects. However, it is understandable that many people believe imprisoning animals for any reason is simply wrong.28. The expression “artificial environments” (Para. 2)is used in contrast to_______________.A. natural environmentsB. some zoosC. breeding programmesD. modern functions29. Why are dolphins mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. They are ocean animals.B. They are good at performing.C. They are made to behave unnaturally in some parks.D. They are supported by international breeding programmes.30. According to the passage, international breeding programmes are particularly important to________.A. animals in zoosB. split-up familiesC. dolphins in parksD. endangered species31. What is the author’s attitude towards zoos?A. NegativeB. PositiveC. CriticalD. UnderstandableQuestions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage.How many times, when finding yourself in a difficult situation, have you heard something like, “You just need to go somewhere, change your environment, and meet new people.” Upon hearing this, we think such advice can be annoying：going through hard times, you rather expect help, sympathy, or at least something more practical, rather than “You know，you should travel”. However, the surprising truth is that this is probably one of the most useful and practical pieces of advice you can get.Of course, you cannot abandon everything and set off to go on a world trip. All of us have duties, responsibilities, debts, connections. However, the advice to travel does not necessarily imply something like departing to Nepal and living among monks(僧侣) for years. In fact, small but regular journeys are available almost to everyone, and the positive effects they can have on your mental condition and your ability to cope with difficulties are significant.When you are stressed，your thoughts obviously cannot be positive and optimistic(乐观的). So, whether you want it or not, you will view your life situation from a rather pessimistic perspective(悲观的视角). However，when you board a plane and fly overseas, you almost immediately start to feel your problems fade. “Out of sight, out of mind,’’ as the saying goes. Of course, I am not saying the easiest way to feel better is to escape from problems; I rather mean that taking a break and allowing yourself to breathe in some fresh air can give you a new perspective. Having a good rest is a necessary condition of any recovery, and your mind definitely needs rest from time to time.Speaking of new perspectives, when travelling, you will inevitably meet a lot of new people. Some of them will become friends of yours; some will remain strangers. Psychologists have known that perhaps the most honest and sincere communication often occurs between strangers；this is called "the companion effect”. Use it to your advantage. Whether you need advice, help, or a person who would quietly listen to you as you share your hardships, there is no better opportunity to get all this from strangers while travelling. Travelling can not solve your problems but will help you recover from your mental wounds, get rid of the excessive stress, and give you the skills to deal with your hardships as you return home.32. While in a difficult situation, people think the suggestion “ You just need to go somewhere”______. .A. annoyingB. surprisingC. practicalD. useful33. What does the advice to travel really mean in this passage?A. Finding a temple and living with the monks.B. Giving up your duties and departing to Nepal.C. Starting a small journey and getting yourself refreshed.D. Forgetting everything and starting a trip around the world.34. What does the word “ it ” （Para. 4) refer to?A. A trip.B. The communication.C. A new perspective.D. The companion effect.35. What is the probable title for this passage?A. Sincere Communication Is a Way Out of ProblemsB. Travelling Offers New Perspectives in Life SituationC. Going Through Hard Times Needs Help and SympathyD. Travelling Is the Best Way to Escape from ProblemsPart Ⅲ ClozeDirections: There is a passage in this part with 10 blanks in it.

Nearly a quarter of Americans do not have a strong sense of what makes their lives meaningful.Research has shown that having purpose and meaning in life increases overall well-being and life satisfaction, improves mental and physical health, and decreases the chances of depression. On top of that, the single-minded pursuit of happiness is leaving people less happy, according to recent research.20. According to Paragraph 1, we know that Viktor Frankl_____________ .A. wrote his early life experience as a soldierB. lost his hope of seeking the meaning of lifeC. spent nine days in Nazi concentration campsD. survived with the spiritual support of life meaning21. The book’s ideas don't agree with American culture because Americans are more interested in searchingfor____.A. happinessB. meaningC. sufferingD. stress22. The percentage of Americans who don’t have a satisfying life purpose is______________ .A. 25%B. 60%C. 40%D. 10%23. Which of the following is the idea the author intends to convey?A. Mental health is the most important factor in life.B. Pursuit of happiness is the most important thing in life.C. Physical health can be improved if you are happy.D. Realizing the meaning of life is important to happiness.Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage.If you’ve ever lost your wallet (钱包), then you know that it’s a very terrible experience. Most people keep a lot in their wallets. That’s where they keep their drivers license, their credit cards, and all kinds of other important things. Of course，that’s also where most of us keep our cash.We all need cash in our lives. However, something called digital currency is slowly replacing cash. A currency is a kind of money. Usually, we use currency when we talk about a country’s money. For example, the UK is the pound, and the USA is the dollar. If something is digital, it only exists on a computer. So “digital currency” meansmoney that only exists on computers.Lots of people have digital currency accounts. They use a credit card to change their real money into digital money, and then the money goes into the digital currency account. A lot of people wonder, “Why in the world should I change my real money into digital money? ” This is a fair question, but there’s a good answer. If you want to buy something online, then you usually have to use digital currency. For example，if you’re in China and you want to buy something in Canada, then you’ll have to pay with digital currency.Many people still don’t trust digital currency. Some people think that if they can’t hold their money in their hand, then it doesn’t seem real. These people don’t feel comfortable when they see numbers on a computer screen. The computer tells them that their money is safe, but these people don’t feel safe. Another problem is security. There are hackers all over the world. A hacker is a person who steals computer information. If a hacker gets the password of your digital currency account, he or she can steal your money.You have to decide whether or not you trust this new invention. Just remember one thing：If you want to buy something online, then you probably won’t have a choice. You’ll have to use digital money.24. The word “fair”（Para. 3) is closest in meaning to__________ .A. beautifulB. equalC. pleasantD. reasonable25. Which of the following is probably a hacker according to the passage?A. A person who uses a computer to steal things.B. A person who composes computer programs.C. A person who uses a computer to buy things.D. A person who owns a lot of digital currency.' 26. How do those who don’t trust digital currency think about money?A. The money on a computer screen is safe.B. The money in their hand is real.C. Real money is worth more than digital money.D. Real money and digital money are the same.27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Hacker problems in the world.B. Currencies used in particular countries.C. A new kind of money.D. Safety of digital currency.Questions 28 to 31 are based on the following passage.Zoos are hugely popular attractions for adults and children alike. But are they actually a good thing?Critics of zoos would argue that animals often suffer physically and mentally by being enclosed (封闭). Even the best artificial environments can^ come close to matching the space and freedom that animals have in their natural environments. This enclosure causes many zoo animals to become stressed or mentally ill. Capturing animals in the wild also causes much suffering by splitting up families. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally. For example, in some parks dolphins (海豚)are forced to perform tricks, who may die decades earlier than their wild relatives. And some even try to kill themselves.On the other hand, by bringing people and animals together, zoos have the potential to educate the public about conservation issues and inspire people to protect animals and their natural environments. Some zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated by people, or pets which have been abandoned. Zoos also carry out important research into subjects like animal behavior and how to treat illnesses. One of the most important modern functions of zoos is supporting international breeding(繁殖) programmes, particularly for endangered species(种群). In the wild，some of the rarest species have difficulty in finding mates and breeding. A good zoo will enable these species to live and breed in secure environments.So, are zoos good for animals or not? Perhaps it all depends on how well individual zoos are managed, and thebenefits of zoos can surely outweigh their harmful effects. However, it is understandable that many people believe imprisoning animals for any reason is simply wrong.28. The expression “artificial environments” (Para. 2)is used in contrast to_______________.A. natural environmentsB. some zoosC. breeding programmesD. modern functions29. Why are dolphins mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. They are ocean animals.B. They are good at performing.C. They are made to behave unnaturally in some parks.D. They are supported by international breeding programmes.30. According to the passage, international breeding programmes are particularly important to________.A. animals in zoosB. split-up familiesC. dolphins in parksD. endangered species31. What is the author’s attitude towards zoos?A. NegativeB. PositiveC. CriticalD. UnderstandableQuestions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage.How many times, when finding yourself in a difficult situation, have you heard something like, “You just need to go somewhere, change your environment, and meet new people.” Upon hearing this, we think such advice can be annoying：going through hard times, you rather expect help, sympathy, or at least something more practical, rather than “You know，you should travel”. However, the surprising truth is that this is probably one of the most useful and practical pieces of advice you can get.Of course, you cannot abandon everything and set off to go on a world trip. All of us have duties, responsibilities, debts, connections. However, the advice to travel does not necessarily imply something like departing to Nepal and living among monks(僧侣) for years. In fact, small but regular journeys are available almost to everyone, and the positive effects they can have on your mental condition and your ability to cope with difficulties are significant.When you are stressed，your thoughts obviously cannot be positive and optimistic(乐观的). So, whether you want it or not, you will view your life situation from a rather pessimistic perspective(悲观的视角). However，when you board a plane and fly overseas, you almost immediately start to feel your problems fade. “Out of sight, out of mind,’’ as the saying goes. Of course, I am not saying the easiest way to feel better is to escape from problems; I rather mean that taking a break and allowing yourself to breathe in some fresh air can give you a new perspective. Having a good rest is a necessary condition of any recovery, and your mind definitely needs rest from time to time.Speaking of new perspectives, when travelling, you will inevitably meet a lot of new people. Some of them will become friends of yours; some will remain strangers. Psychologists have known that perhaps the most honest and sincere communication often occurs between strangers；this is called "the companion effect”. Use it to your advantage. Whether you need advice, help, or a person who would quietly listen to you as you share your hardships, there is no better opportunity to get all this from strangers while travelling. Travelling can not solve your problems but will help you recover from your mental wounds, get rid of the excessive stress, and give you the skills to deal with your hardships as you return home.32. While in a difficult situation, people think the suggestion “ You just need to go somewhere”______. .A. annoyingB. surprisingC. practicalD. useful33. What does the advice to travel really mean in this passage?A. Finding a temple and living with the monks.B. Giving up your duties and departing to Nepal.C. Starting a small journey and getting yourself refreshed.D. Forgetting everything and starting a trip around the world.34. What does the word “ it ” （Para. 4) refer to?A. A trip.B. The communication.C. A new perspective.D. The companion effect.35. What is the probable title for this passage?A. Sincere Communication Is a Way Out of ProblemsB. Travelling Offers New Perspectives in Life SituationC. Going Through Hard Times Needs Help and SympathyD. Travelling Is the Best Way to Escape from ProblemsPart Ⅲ ClozeDirections: There is a passage in this part with 10 blanks in it.

Reading comprehensionPassage 1汉) stand to a Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger (堡包global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries.With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index (巨无霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) (76)No one claimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization.1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE.A. McDonald's was founded in 1948.B. McDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.C. McDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now.D. McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean ____.A. very crowdedB. very deanC. existing everywhereD. occurring frequently3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that ____.A. McDonald’s designs its menu to suit the local peopleB. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald’sC. the McDonald’s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big MacD. the low prices McDonald’s bring tens of millions of people through its doors every day4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's?A. They organized a strike.B. They protested outside a McDonald’s.C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald’s.D. They destroyed a McDonald’s under construction.5. In ____, an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald’s restaurant in France.A. 1998B. 1999C. 2000D. 2001Passage 2Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory（印第安人保护区that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim,）and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U. S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon hasten track and field and filed events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”6. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ______.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden7. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT _____.A. fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing8. Jim Thorpe started to play sports _____.A. before he was nine years old.B. when he was 16 years oldC. when he was 24 years oldD. before his parents passed away9. The word decathlon in paragraph 3 probably means _______.A. jumpingB. five track and field eventsC. throwingD. ten track and field events10. Which of the flowing is NOT TRUE?A. In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B. Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C. Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D. In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.Passage 3丧) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out It can be really frustrating(使人沮的with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny”members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are , well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering(迎合) to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny” people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.块).Trainers recommended functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六腹肌(79)They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals,and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image.The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted(有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it’s a step in the right direction.11. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that ___________.A. most large gym chains really want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC. regular gyms don’t accept overweight people to participate in their programsD. overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13.

As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. The machines are designed for larger people.B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C. There are larger mirrors on the walls.D. The training goals are more realistic.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Improving Women’s Self-confidence through ExercisesB.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2018年5月真题Passage 1In 1866, sailors on a German ship called Paula threw a bottle with a message into waters hundreds of miles off the western coast of Australia. One hundred and thirty-one years later,(76) the bottle was found on an Australia island.It's believed to be the oldest-known message in a bottle, in terms of the amount of time that has passed between when it was written and when it was found. Before this discovery, Guinness(吉尼斯) World Records said that the oldest was 108 years old, found in Germany in 2015.Aus-tralian and German researchers worked together to check whether the note is real or not.Tonya IIlman was walking on the beach in January when she spotted the old bottle. “I picked it up thinking it might look nice on display in my home, " Illman says, according to an account on her husband's website.(77)The bottle was partially filled with wet sand. Shortly after, Illman's son's girlfriend poured out the contents and found a tightly rolled note covered in a piece of string.Too damp to open initially, according to the account, the group waited for it to dry and were amazed to see that it was carefully handwritten in German. "The first thing that caught my eye was the year 1866,” said Illman's husband Kym. "It seemed totally unlikely to us that the note and bottle could have lasted that long."The pair reached out to the Western Australia Museum, which set out to study the document, "Extraordinary finds need extraordinary evidence to support them, so we contacted colleagues in Germany for help to find more information,”Ross Anderson, who is in charg e of words of art in the museum, said in a statement.But this message is no SOS or love letter.1. According to Guinness World Records, the second oldest message was found ___.A. in 2014B. in 2015C. in 2017D. in 20162. Which of the following is TRUE?A.

Illman 's son broke the bottle to take out what was insideD. the note was written in EnglishB. dryC. coolD. hot5. Which of the following is probably the best title for this passage?A.

A Guinness beer bottlePassage 2A handwritten note from Albert Einstein sold for more than $1. 5 million at an auction(拍卖会).He gave the note to a hotel porter in Japan in 1922.

The note was written in German. It was written on notepaper from the Imperial Hotel in Ginza, Tokyo, where Einstein was delivering a series of lectures.He was traveling to Asia when news that he had won the Nobel Prize for Physics reached him via telegraph. Einstein was unable to attend the prize-giving ceremony in StockholmGal wiener is head of the auction house in jerusale israel where the note was sold. He Said Einstein told the hotel porter to keep the note since it "will probably be worth more than a reg-ularti p”.Bidding(拍卖中的出价) on the note began at$2,000. It was expected to sell for no more than $8, 000. But 25 minutes later, the auction house made the major sale.(79 )A second Einstein note was also sold at the auction. It went for more than $200, 000. “Where theres a will, theres a way,” the note says.The identity of the person or group that sold the notes has not been made public.

He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory（印第安人保护区）that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim,and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic goldmedal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, hismother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor,so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team.(77) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jimwas a star athlete(运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running and football. He won manyawards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of thepoints for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U. S Olympic team. Hecompeted in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great abilityand strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the1,500-meter race. The decathlon hasten track and field and filed events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the Kingof Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest ath the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”6. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ______.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden7. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT _____.A. fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing8.

In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.Passage 3It can be really frustrating(使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work outwith a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny”members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are , well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classesor while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now thefitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering(迎合) to overweight andweight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny” people are not allowed There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommended functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). (79)They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on theirown weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors,and tinted(有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea isa very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more andimprove our fitness level, it’s a step in the right direction.11. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that ___________.A. most large gym chains really want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC. regular gyms don’t accept overweight people to participate in their programsD. overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13.

As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements i s NOTTRUE?A. The machines are designed for larger people.B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C. There are larger mirrors on the walls.D. The training goals are more realistic.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?-confidence through ExercisesA. Improving Women’s SelfB.

It is a long.dry and difficult.journey. Frequently, the only available water is the Grumeti Ri ver, 58 represents both life and death.Unlike some creatures that can take moisture 59 the grass they eat, wildebees ts must drink from the river to live.The river supports other wildlife. including 60 that kill and eat other animals.Though thirsty 61 traveling, the wildebeests stand back from the water, sensin g possible danger.Moving slowly toward the bank can 62 hours, as an individual wildebeest step s forward.steps back and then carefully steps forward again. More wildebeests gat her together and advance,gradually pushing the leaders to the river, 63 they want to go or not. It's been a long time 64 theydrink last time, and you feel their anxiety for water.Lions are possibly on the 65, saving energy as they wait for an opportunity for lunch.
