全国英语等级考试四级模拟试题完型填空完型填空模拟试题Passage 1The first and smallest unit that can be discussed in relation to language is the word. In speaking, the choice of words is 41 the utmost importance. Proper selection will eliminate one source of 42 breakdown in the communication cycle. Too often, careless use of words 43 a meeting of the minds of the speaker and listener. The words used by the speaker may 44 unfavorable reactions in the listener 45 interfere with his comprehension; hence, the transmission-reception system breaks down.46 inaccurate or indefinite words may make 47 difficult for the listener to understand the 48 which is being transmitted to him. The speaker who does not have specific words in his working vocabulary may be 49 to explain or describe in a 50 that can be understood by his listeners.41 ［A］of ［B］at［C］for ［D］on42 ［A］inaccessible ［B］timely［C］likely ［D］invalid43 ［A］encourages ［B］prevents［C］destroy ［D］offers44 ［A］pass out ［B］take away［C］back up ［D］stir up45 ［A］who ［B］as［C］which ［D］what46 ［A］Moreover ［B］However［C］Preliminarily ［D］Unexpectedly47 ［A］that ［B］it［C］so ［D］this48 ［A］speech ［B］sense［C］message ［D］meaning49 ［A］obscure ［B］difficult［C］impossible ［D］unable50 ［A］case ［B］means［C］method ［D］wayPassage 2Sleep is divided into periods of so-called REM sleep, characterized by rapid eye movements and dreaming, and longer periods of non-REM sleep. 41 kind of sleep is at all well understood, but REM sleep is 42 to serve some restorative function of the brain. The purpose of non-REM sleep is even more 43 . The new experiments, such as these 44 for the first time at a recent meeting of the Society for Sleep Research in Minneapolis, suggest fascinating explanations 45 of non-REM sleep.For example, it has long been known that total sleep 46 is 100 percent fatal to rats, yet, 47 examination of the dead bodies, the animals look completely normal. A researcher has now 48 the mystery of why the animals die. The rats 49 bacterial infections of the blood, 50 their immune systems—the self—protecting mechanism against diseases—had crashed.41 ［A］Either ［B］Neither［C］Each ［D］Any42 ［A］intended ［B］required［C］assumed ［D］inferred43 ［A］subtle ［B］obvious［C］mysterious ［D］doubtful44 ［A］maintained ［B］described［C］settled ［D］afforded45 ［A］in the light ［B］by virtue［C］with the exception ［D］for the purpose46 ［A］reduction ［B］destruction［C］deprivation ［D］restriction47 ［A］upon ［B］by［C］through ［D］with48 ［A］paid attention to ［B］caught sight of［C］laid emphasis on ［D］cast light on49 ［A］develop ［B］produce［C］stimulate ［D］induce50 ［A］if ［B］as if［C］only if ［D］if onlyPassage 3Vitamins are organic compounds necessary in small amounts in the diet for the normal growth and maintenance of life of animals, including man.They do not provide energy, 41 do they construct or build any part of the body. They are needed for 42 foods into energy and body maintenance. There are thirteen or more of them, and if 43 is missing a deficiency disease becomes44 .Vitamins are similar because they are made of the same elements—usually carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and 45 nitrogen. They are different 46 their elements are arranged differently, and each vitamin 47 one or more specific functions in the body.48 enough vitamins is essential to life, although the body has no nutritional use for 49 vitamins. Many people, 50 , believe in being on the “safe side” and thus take extra vitamins. However, a well-balanced diet will usually meet all the body's vitamin needs.41. A) either B) so C) nor D) never42.

Every morning, its people 41 into the offices and factories of America, seeking a day's work for a day's pay. One day at a time. 42 industrial giants like General Motors and IBM struggle to survive 43reducing the number of employees, Manpower, based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is booming.44 its economy continues to recover, the US is increasingly becoming a nation of part-timers and temporary workers. This “45” work force is the most important 46 in American business today, and it is 47 changing the relationship between people and their jobs. The phenomenon provides a way for companies to remain globally competitive 48 avoiding market cycles and the growing burdens 49 by employment rules, healthcare costs and pension plans.

They 41 that in the long run industrialization greatly raised the standard of living for the 42 man. But they insisted that its 43 results during the period from 1750 to 1850 were widespread poverty and misery for the 44 of the English population. 45 contrast, they saw in the preceding hundred years from 1650 to 1750, when England was still a 46 agricultural country, a period of great abundance and prosperity.This view, 47 , is generally thought to be wrong. Specialists 48 history and economics, have 49 two things: that the period from 1650 to 1750 was 50 by great poverty, and that industrialization certainly did not worsen and may have actually improved the conditions for the majority of the populace.41. ［A］admitted ［B］believed ［C］claimed ［D］predicted42. ［A］plain ［B］average ［C］mean ［D］normal43. ［A］momentary ［B］prompt ［C］instant ［D］immediate44. ［A］bulk ［B］host ［C］gross ［D］magnitude45. ［A］On ［B］With ［C］For ［D］By46. ［A］broadly ［B］thoroughly ［C］generally ［D］completely47. ［A］however ［B］meanwhile ［C］therefore ［D］moreover48. ［A］at ［B］in ［C］about ［D］for49. ［A］manifested B］approved ［C］shown ［D］speculated50. ［A］noted ［B］impressed ［C］labeled ［D］markedPassage 6Industrial safety does not just happen. Companies 41 low accident rates plan their safety programs, work hard to organize them, and continue working to keep them 42 and active. When the work is well done, a 43 of accident-free operations is established 44 time lost due to injuries is kept at a minimum.Successful safety programs may 45 greatly in the emphasis placed on certain aspects of the program. Some place great emphasis on mechanical guarding. Others stress safe work practices by 46 rules or regulations. 47 others depend on an emotional appeal to the worker. But, there are certain basic ideas that must be used in every program if maximum results are to be obtained.There can be no question about the value of a safety program. From a financial standpoint alone, safety 48 . The fewer the injury 49 , the better the workman's insurance rate. This may mean the difference between operating at50 or at a loss.41. ［A］at ［B］in ［C］on ［D］with42. ［A］alive ［B］vivid ［C］mobile ［D］diverse43. ［A］regulation ［B］climate ［C］circumstance ［D］requirement44. ［A］where ［B］how ［C］what ［D］unless45. ［A］alter ［B］differ ［C］shift ［D］distinguish46. ［A］constituting ［B］aggravating［C］observing ［D］justifying47. ［A］Some ［B］Many ［C］Even ［D］Still48. ［A］comes off ［B］turns up ［C］pays off ［D］holds up49. ［A］claims ［B］reports ［C］declarations ［D］proclamations50. ［A］an advantage ［B］a benefit ［C］an interest ［D］a profitPassage 7If a farmer wishes to succeed, he must try to keep a wide gap between his consumption and his production. He must store a large quantity of grain 41 consuming all his grain immediately. He can continue to support himself and his family 42 he produces a surplus.He must use this surplus in three ways: as seed for sowing, as an insurance 43 the unpredictable effects of bad weather and as a commodity which he must sell in order to 44 old agricultural implements and obtain chemical fertilizers to 45 the soil. He may also need money to construct irrigation 46 and improve his farm in other ways. If no surplus is available, a farmer cannot be 47 . He must either sell some of his property or 48 extra funds in the form of loans. Naturally he will try to borrow money at a low 49 of interest, but loans of this kind are not 50 obtainable.41 ［A］other than ［B］as well as ［C］instead of ［D］more than42 ［A］only if ［B］much as ［C］long before ［D］ever since43 ［A］for ［B］against ［C］of ［D］towards44 ［A］replace ［B］purchase ［C］supplement ［D］dispose45 ［A］enhance ［B］mix ［C］feed ［D］raise46 ［A］vessels ［B］routes ［C］paths ［D］channels47 ［A］self-confident ［B］self-sufficient［C］self-satisfied ［D］self-restrained48 ［A］search ［B］save ［C］offer ［D］seek49 ［A］proportion ［B］percentage ［C］rate ［D］ratio50 ［A］genuinely ［B］obviously ［C］presumably ［D］frequentlyPassage 8The government is to ban payments to witnesses by newspapers seeking to buy up people involved in prominent cases 31 the trial of Rosemary West.In a significant 32 of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a 33 bill that will propose making payments to witnesses 34 and will strictly control the amount of 35 that can be given to a case 36 a trial begins.In a letter to Gerald Kaufman, chairman of the House of Commons media select committee, Lord Irvine said he 37 with a committee report this year which said that self regulation did not 38 sufficient control.39 of the letter came two days after Lord Irvine caused a 40 of media protest when he said the 41 of privacy controls contained in European legislation would be left to judges 42 to Parliament.The Lord Chancellor said introduction of the Human Rights Bill, which 43 the European Convention on Human Rights legally 44 in Britain, laid down that everybody was 45 to privacy and that public figures could go to court to protect themselves and their families.“Press freedoms will be in safe hands 46 our British judges," he said.Witness payments became an 47 after West was sentenced to 10 life sentences in 1995.

Yet much had happened 21 . As was discussed before, it was not 22 the 19th century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic 23 , following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the 24 of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution 25 up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading 26 through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures 27 the 20th-century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in 28 . It is important to do so.It is generally recognized, 29 , that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century, 30 by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s,radically changed the process, 31 its impact on the media was not immediately 32 . As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became “personal" too, as well as33 , with display becoming sharper and storage 34 increasing. They were thought of, like people, 35 generations, with the distance between generations much36 .It was within the computer age that the term “information society" began to be widely used to describe the 37 within which we now live. The communications revolution has 38 both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been 39 views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. “Benefits" have been weighed 40“harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.21. ［A］between ［B］before ［C］since ［D］later22. ［A］after ［B］by ［C］during ［D］until23. ［A］means ［B］method ［C］medium ［D］measure24. ［A］process ［B］company ［C］light ［D］form25. ［A］gathered ［B］speeded ［C］worked ［D］picked26. ［A］on ［B］out ［C］over ［D］off27. ［A］of ［B］for ［C］beyond ［D］into28. ［A］concept ［B］dimension［C］effect ［D］perspective29. ［A］indeed ［B］hence ［C］however ［D］therefore30. ［A］brought ［B］followed［C］stimulated ［D］characterized31. ［A］unless ［B］since ［C］lest ［D］although32. ［A］apparent ［B］desirable［C］negative ［D］plausible33. ［A］institutional ［B］universal［C］fundamental ［D］instrumental34. ［A］ability ［B］capability ［C］capacity ［D］faculty35. ［A］by means of ［B］in terms of ［C］with regard to ［D］in line with36. ［A］deeper ［B］fewer ［C］nearer ［D］smaller37. ［A］context ［B］range ［C］scope ［D］territory38. ［A］regarded ［B］impressed ［C］influenced ［D］effected39. ［A］competitive ［B］controversial［C］distracting ［D］irrational40. ［A］above ［B］upon ［C］against ［D］withPassage 10Teachers need to be aware of the emotional, intellectual, and physical changes that young adults experience.

Growing bodies need movement and 23 , but not just in ways that emphasize competition. 24 they are adjusting to their new bodies and a whole host of new intellectual and emotional challenges, teenagers are especially self-conscious and need the 25 that comes from achieving success and knowing that their accomplishments are 26 by others. However, the typical teenage lifestyle is already filled with so much competition that it would be 27 to plan activities in which there are more winners than losers, 28 , publishing newsletters with many student-written book reviews, 29 student artwork, and sponsoring book discussion clubs. A variety of small clubs can provide 30 opportunities for leadership, as well as for practice in successful 31 dynamics. Making friends is extremely important to teenagers, and many shy students need the 32 of some kind of organization with a supportive adult 33 visible in the background.In these activities, it is important to remember that young teens have 34 attention spans. A variety of activities should be organized 35 participants can remain active as long as they want and then go on to 36 else without feeling guilty and without letting the other participants 37 . This does not mean that adults must accept irresponsibility. 38 they can help students acquire a sense of commitment by 39 for roles that are within their 40 and their attention spans and by having clearly stated rules. 21.［A］thought ［B］ideal［C］opinion ［D］advice22. ［A］strengthen ［B］accommodate［C］stimulate ［D］enhance23. ［A］care ［B］nutrition［C］exercise ［D］leisure24. ［A］If ［B］Although［C］Whereas ［D］Because25. ［A］assistance ［B］guidance［C］confidence［D］tolerance26. ［A］claimed ［B］admired［C］ignored［D］surpassed27. ［A］improper ［B］risky［C］fair ［D］wise28. ［A］in effect ［B］as a result［C］for example［D］in a sense29. ［A］displaying ［B］describing［C］creating ［D］exchanging30. ［A］durable ［B］excessive［C］surplus ［D］multiple31. ［A］group ［B］individual［C］personnel ［D］corporation32. ［A］consent ［B］insurance［C］admission ［D］security33. ［A］particularly ［B］barely［C］definitely［D］rarely34. ［A］similar ［B］long［C］different ［D］short35. ［A］if only ［B］now that［C］so that ［D］even if36. ［A］everything ［B］anything［C］nothing ［D］something37. ［A］off ［B］down［C］out ［D］alone38. ［A］On the contrary ［B］On the average［C］On the whole ［D］On the other hand 39. ［A］making ［B］standing［C］planning ［D］taking40. ［A］capabilities ［B］responsibilities［C］proficiency ［D］efficiencyPassage 11Many theories concerning the causes of juvenile delinquency (crimes committed by young people) focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence. Theories 21 on the individual suggest that children engage in criminal behavior 22 they were not sufficiently penalized for previous misdeeds or that they have learned criminal behavior through 23with others. Theories focusing on the role of society that children commit crimes in 24 to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status 25 as a rejection of middle-class values.Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from disadvantaged families, 26 the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes. The latter may commit crimes 27 lack of adequate parental control. All theories, however, are tentative and are 28 to criticism.Changes in the social structure may indirectly 29 juvenile crime rates. For example, changes in the economy that 30 to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment 31 make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain. The resulting discontent may in 32 lead more youths into criminal behavior.Families have also 33 changes these years. More families consist of one parent households or two working parents.34 , children are likely to have less supervision at home 35 was common in the traditional family 36 . This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other 37 causes of offensive acts include frustration or failure in school, the increased 38 of drugs and alcohol, and the growing 39 of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act, 40 a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.21.［A］acting ［B］relying ［C］centering ［D］cementing22.［A］before ［B］unless ［C］until ［D］because23. ［A］interactions［B］assimilation ［C］cooperation ［D］consultation24. ［A］return ［B］reply ［C］reference ［D］response25. ［A］or ［B］but rather ［C］but ［D］or else26.［A］considering ［B］ignoring ［C］highlighting ［D］discarding27. ［A］on ［B］in ［C］for ［D］with28. ［A］immune ［B］resistant ［C］sensitive ［D］subject29. ［A］affect ［B］reduce ［C］chock ［D］reflect30. ［A］point ［B］lead ［C］come ［D］amount31. ［A］in general ［B］on average ［C］by contrast ［D］at length32. ［A］case ［B］short ［C］turn ［D］essence33. ［A］survived ［B］noticed ［C］undertaken ［D］experienced34. ［A］contrarily ［B］consequently ［C］similarly ［D］simultaneously35. ［A］than ［B］that ［C］which ［D］as36. ［A］system ［B］structure ［C］concept ［D］heritage37. ［A］assessable ［B］identifiable ［C］negligible ［D］incredible38. ［A］expense ［B］restriction ［C］allocation ［D］availability39. ［A］incidence ［B］awareness ［C］exposure ［D］popularity40. ［A］provided ［B］since ［C］although ［D］supposing1 ACBDC ABCDD2 BCCBD CADAB3 CDABC ADBCA4 ACDAB DCBAD5 ABDAD DABCD6 DABAB CDCAD7 CABAC DBDCD8 DADBA CDBBA BCBAC ADCDC9 ADCBB ADDCB DAACB DACBC 10．ABCDC BDCAD ADBDC DBACA 11．CDADA BCDAB ACDBA BBDAC。

In a small store the assistant may also be the owner so you can complain (37).

In certain cases you may have the right to refuse the goods and ask for your money back , but this is only where you have hardly used the goods and have acted at once. Even when you cannot refuse the goods you may be able to get some money back as well. And if you have suffered some (43) loss, if for example a new washing machine tears your clothes, you might receive money to replace them.

If the shopkeeper refuses to give you money, ask for (44) from your Citizens' Advice Bureau before you accept a credit note.In some cases the shopkeeper does not have to give you your money back--if, for example, he changes an article simplybecause you don't like it or it does not fit.

In this (36), every group has a culture, however savage, undeveloped, or uncivilized it may seem to us.To the professional anthropologist (人类学家), there is no intrinsic(37)of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic hierarchy(等级制度) among languages.People once thought of the languages of backward groups as (38) and undeveloped forms of speech, consisting largely of grunts and groans. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of grunts and groans, it is a fact established by the study of "backward" languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, by our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the (39) of ideas. They fall behind our Western languages not in their sound patterns or (40 ) structures, which usually are fully adequate for all language needs, but only in their vocabularies, which（41）the objects and activities known to their speakers.

But many of these students decided to stay on in the developed countries when they had finished their training.In the 1960s, some Latin American countries tried to solve this problem by setting up special "return" programs to encourage their professionals to come back home. These programs received support from international bodies such as the International Organization for Migration, which in 1974enabled over 1,600（38）scientists and technicians to return to Latin America.In the 1980s and 1990s, "temporary return" programs were set up in order to make the best use of trained personnel (39) strategic positions in the developed countries. This gave rise to the United Nations Development Program's Transfer of Knowledge through Expatriate Nationals, which encourages technicians and scientists to work in their own countries for short periods. But the brain drain from these countries maywell increase in (40) to the new laws of the international market in knowledge.Recent studies (41) that the most developed countries are going to need more and more highly qualified professionals around twice as many as their educational systems will be ableto produce, or so it is thought. As a (42) there is an urgent need for developing countries which send students abroad to give (43) to fields where they need competent people to give muscle to their own institutions, instead of encouraging the training of people who may not come back because there are no professional outlets for them. And the countries of the South must not be content with institutional structures that simply take back professionals sent abroad; they must introduce (44) administrative procedures to encourage them to return.

Go back to the shop where you bought the goods, taking with you any (36) you may have. Ask to see the buyer in a large store. In a small store the assistant may also be the owner so you can complain (37). In a chain store ask to see the manager.Even the bravest person finds it difficult to complain face to face, so if you do not want to do it in (38), write a letter. Be sure to（39）to the facts and keep a copy of whatyou write. At this stage you should give any receipt numbers, but you should not need to give receipts or other papers to prove you bought the article. If you are not (40) with the answer you get, or if you do not get a reply, write to the managing director of the firm, shop, or organization. Be sure to keep copies of your own letters and any you receive.If your complaint is a just one, the shopkeeper may offer to (41) or repair the faulty article. You may find this an (42) solution. In certain cases you may have the right to refuse the goods and ask for your money back, but this is only where you have hardly used the goods and have acted at once. Even when you cannot refuse the goods you may be able to get some money back as well. And if you have suffered some (43) loss, if for example a new washing machine tears your clothes, you might receive money to replace them. If the shopkeeper offers you a credit note to be used to buy goods in the same shops but you would rather have money, say so. If you accept a credit note remember that later you will not be able to ask for your money. If the shopkeeper refuses to give you money, ask for (44) from your Citizens' Advice Bureau before you accept a credit note.

They have developed a hitlist of our main fears: natural resources are（1）out the population is ever growing, leaving less and less to eat species are becoming （2）in vast numbers, and the planet's air and water are becoming ever more polluted.But a quick look at the facts shows a different picture. First, energy and other natural resources have become more（3） not less so, since the book 'The Limits to Growth' was published in 1972 by a group of scientists. Second, more foodis now produced per 4 of the world's population than at any time in history. Fewer people are （5） . Third, although species are indeed becoming extinct, only about 0.7% of them are expected to disappear in the next 50 years, not 25~50%, as has so often been（6）. And finally, most forms of environmental pollution either appear to have been （7） , or are transient - associated with the early stages of industrialization and therefore best cured not by restricting economic growth, but by（8）it. One form of pollution - therelease of greenhouse gases that causes global warming - does appear to be a phenomenon that is going to extend well into our future, but its total impact is unlikely to（9） a devastating (令人心神不安的) problem.

The possibility of earning a fixed (12) in a factory or office wasmore attractive than the possibility of staying on the farm and having one's work (13) by frost, storms, or droughts. Furthermore, thedevelopment of agricultural machinery made it possible for fewer people to do the same (14) of work.Thus, at the same time when the industrial revolution made it possible to produce goods more (15) and more quickly in factories, agricultural revolution also took place. Instead of leaving fields empty every third year, farmers began to plant clover or some other crop that would (16) the soil. Instead of using only animal fertilizer, farmers began to use chemical fertilizers to keep the soil rich. These methods have enabled French farmers, for example, to get five times as much wheat as was (17) from the same land two centuries ago.In many countries farmers find it more (18) to raise only one crop or one kind of animal. They choose the kind that gives the best results. Then they sell all that they produce, instead of trying to grow a little of everything and consume what they grow. This is a more feasible type of (19) because modern methods and machinery are adapted to specific animals and specific crops.

The same (13) of walls crushed hundreds of thousands of people during the 1976 Tangshan quake in China.A decade ago, Atwater would have paid little notice to schoolroom walls. But over the last several years, he and other scientists have found (14) signs that the Pacific Northwest hasexperienced giant quakes in the distant past and that the area may be headed for a destructive shock in the near future.At a meeting of the American Geophysical Union in December, researchers discussed the (15) uncovered evidence of quake potential in the Pacific Northwest. While some remain unconvinced that huge earthquakes—with magnitudes of 8 or higher—do indeed (16) this region, a growing number consider such shocks a serious possibility.What's worrisome, they say, is that northwestern cities such as Portland, Seattle and Vancouver have not prepared for earthquakes of this magnitude, which could shake the region's (17) centers with enough force to make the recent San Francisco area damage seem (18) in comparison."I think it's quite true to say that nothing has really been designed with one of these earthquakes in mind," says seismologist Paul Somerville of Woodward.

There may still be a trillion barrels of recoverable oil in the Middle East. But the oil crisis of 1974 has (11) to renewed interest in coal and to a search for （12） sources of energy. Solar, geothermal, and nuclear energy will play a large role in the years to come.Solar energy is available in （13） forms. Buildings can be heated and cooled by direct use of solar radiation, crops and trees, which are the most efficient converters of sunlight into energy, can be grown for their energy potential, wastes can be burned as （14） , sunlight can be converted into DC (direct current) electricity, electric power can be （15） from thesun-warmed surface waters of the ocean, and lastly, solar radiation can be converted into heat that will drive electric power generators. Serious problems still remain as to （16）and storage of solar energy.Geothermal energy is the energy contained within the earth. Heat is abundantly available deep in the earth's core and is constantly being produced. However, this heat is usually located at too deep a level for （17） exploitation. In short, very little is known on the use of geothermal energy, and it has （18） been exploited.Nuclear energy is produced in nuclear power plants. At these plants atoms of uranium are split, thus （19） masses of energy. Another source of energyunder development is the nuclear fusion of certain atoms of hydrogen.

Despite （11）alarms, the country escaped any postwar depression and lived in a （12） of boom. An economic survey of the year 1955, atypical year of the 1950's, may be typical as （13） the rapid economic growth of the decade. The national output was （14）at 10 percent above that of 1954(1955 output was estimated at 392 billion dollars). The production of manufactures was about 40 percent more than it had （15） in the years immediately following World War I . The country's business spent about 30 billion dollars for new factories and machinery. National income （16） for spending was almost a third greater than it had been in 1950.

To some observers this was a sad reflection of the mid-1920's. As farmers' share of their products （19） , marketing costs rose.

As the trade winds lessen in ____32____, the ocean temperatures rise causing the Peru current flowing in from the east to warm up by as much as 50C.The warming of the ocean has far-reaching effects. The hot, humid(潮湿的)air over the ocean causes severe ___33___thunderstorms.The rainfall is increased across South American, ____34____floods to Peru.

Many in-home jobs that used to be done__31__ by women----ranging from familyshopping to preparing meals to doing __32__work--still need to be done by someone .Husbands and children now do some of these jobs, a __33___ that has changed the target market for many products. Or a working woman may face a crushing “poverty of time “and look for help elsewhere , creating opportunities for producers of frozen meals, child care centers, dry cleaners, financial services, and the like.Although there is still a big wage __34__ between men and women, the income working women __35__ gives them new independence and buying power. For example, women now __36__ about half of all cars. Not long ago, many cars dealers __37__ women shoppers by ignoring them or suggesting that they come back with their husbands. Now car companies have realized that women are __38__ customers. It’s interesting that some leading Japanese car deal ers were the first to __39__ pay attention to women customers. In Japan, fewer women have jobs or buy cars ---- the Japanese society is still very much male—oriented. Perhaps it was the __40__ contrast with Japanese society that prompted American firms to pay more attention to women buyers.Years ago, doctors often said that pain was a normal part of life.

Such comprehensive therapy often __37__ the work of social workers, psychiatrists (心理医生) and psychologists, as well as specialists in pain medicine.This modern __38__ for pain management has led to a wealth of innovative treatments which are more effective and with fewer side effects than ever before. Decades ago, there were only a __39__ number of drugs available, and many of them caused __40__ side effects in older people, including dizziness and fatigue. This created a double-edged sword: the medications helped relieve the pain but caused other problems that could be worse than the pain itself.模拟试题4As war spreads to many corners of the globe, children sadly have been drawn into the center of conflicts.

One great way to do this is by having students write in a journal in class every day.Writing ability is like strength training. Writing needs to be done___37___, just like exercise ; just as muscles grow stronger with exercise , writing skills improve quickly with writing practice. I often see a rise in student confidence and ___38___ after only a few weeks of journal writing .Expressing oneself in writing is one of the most important skills I teach to strengthen the whole student. When my students practice journal writing, they are practicing for their future academic, political, and ___39___ lives . They build skills so that some day they might write a great novel, a piece of sorely needed legislation, or the perfect love letter. Every day that they write in their journals puts them a step ___40___ to fluency , eloquence (雄辩), and command of language .The popular notion that old people need less sleep than younger adults is a myth, scientists said yesterday. While elderly people __31__ to sleep for fewer hours than they did when they were younger, this has a(n) __32__ effect on their brain's performance and they would benefit from getting more, according to research.Sean Drummond, a. psychiatrist (心理医生) at the University of California, San Diego, said older people are more likely to suffer from broken sleep, while younger people are better at sleeping __33__ straight through the night.More sleep in old age, however, is __34__ with better health, and most older people would feel better and more __35__ if they slept for longer periods, he said.“The ability to sleep in one chunk (整块时间) overnight goes down as we age but the amount of sleep we need to __36__ well does not change,” Dr Drummond told the American Association for the Advancement of Science conference in San Diego.“It's __37__ a myth that older people need less sleep. The more healthy an older adult is, the more they sleep like they did when they were __38__. Our data suggests that older adults would benefit from __39__ to get as much sleep as they did in their 30s. That's __40__ from person to person, but the amount of sleep we had at 35 is probably the same amount as we need at 75.”With the world's population estimated to grow from six to nine billion by 2050, researchers. businesses and governments are already dealing with the impact this increase will have on everything from food and water to infrastructure (基础设施) and jobs.

Although these educators may have good 31 , their advice to families is misguided, and it 32 from misunderstandings about the process of language acquisition. Educators may fear that children hearing two languages will become 33 confused and thus their language development will be 34 ; this concern is not documented in the literature. Children are capable of learning more than one language, whether 35 or sequentially（依次地）．In fact, most children outside of the United States are expected to become bilingual or even, in many cases, multilingual. Globally, knowing more than one language is viewed as an 36 and even a necessity in many areas.It is also of concern that the misguided advice that students should speak only English is given primarily to poor families with limited educational opportunities, not to wealthier families who have many educational advantages. Since children from poor families often are 37 as at-risk for academic failure, teachers believe that advising families to speak English only is appropriate. Teachers consider learning two languages to be too 38 for children from poor families, believing that the children are already burdened by their home situations.If families do not know English or have limited English skills themselves, how can they communicate in English? Advising non-English-speaking families to speak only English is 39 to telling them not to communicate with or interact with their children. Moreover, the 40 message is that the family's native language is not important or valued.Some performance evaluations require supervisors to take action. Employees who receive a very favorable evaluation may deserve some type of recognition or even a promotion. If supervisors do not acknowledge such outstanding performance, employees may either lose their 31 and reduce their effort or search for a new job at a firm that will 32 them for high performance. Supervisors should acknowledge high performance so that the employee will continue to perform well in the future.Employees who receive unfavorable evaluations must also be given attention. Supervisors must 33 the reasons for poor performance. Some reasons, such as a family illness, may have a temporary adverse ___34__ on performance and can be corrected. Other reasons, such as a badattitude, may not be temporary. When supervisors give employees an unfavorable evaluation, they must decide whether to take any __35 __ actions. If the employees were unaware of their own deficiencies, the unfavorable evaluation can pinpoint (指出) the deficiencies that employees must correct. In this case, the supervisor may simply need to monitor the employees 36 and ensure that the deficiencies are corrected.If the employees were already aware of their deficiencies before the evaluation period, however, they may be unable or unwilling to correct them. This situation is more serious, and the supervisor may need to take action. The action should be 37 with the firm's guidelines and may include reassigning the employees to new jobs, 38 them temporarily, or firing them. A supervisor's action toward a poorly performing worker can 39 the attitudes of other employees. If no 40 is imposed on an employee for poor performance, other employees may react by reducing their productivity as well.Cell phones provide instant access to people. They are creating a major 31 in the social experiences of both children and adolescents. In one recent U. S. survey, about half the teens polled said that their cell phone had 32 their communication with friends. Almost all said that their cell phone was the way they stayed in touch with peers, one-third had used the cell phone to help a peer in need, and about 80% said the phone made them feel safer. Teenagers in Australia, 33 , said that their mobile phones provided numerous benefits and were an 34 part of their lives; some were so 35__ to their phones that the researchers considered it an addiction. In Japan, too, researchers are concerned about cell phone addiction. Researchers in one study in Tokyo found that more than half of junior high school students used their phones to exchange e-mails with schoolmates more than 10 times a day.Cell phones 36 social connections with peers across time and space. They allow young people to exchange moment-by-moment experiences in their daily lives with special partners and thus to have a more 37 sense of connection with friends. Cell phones also can 38 social tolerance because peers, cell phones connect children and parents. Researchers studying teenagers in Israel concluded that, in that ___39__ environment, mobile phones were regarded as "security objects" in parent-teen relationships—important because they provided the possibility of 40 and communication at all times.答案部分模拟试题11.F2.B3.E4.L5.K6.J7.N8.A9.O10.I模拟试题21.H2.N3.O4.A5.L6.C7.K8.G9.D10.F模拟试题31.L2.G3.I4.D5.O6.F7.B8.M9.J10.C模拟试题41.K2.M3.A4.J5.D6.G7.F8.I9.O10.E模拟试题51.D2.H3.O4.G5.M6.J7.B8.N9.C10.A模拟试题61.M2.I3.F4.E5.H6.D7.B8.J9.C10.A模拟试题71.N2.L3.H4.B5.A6.J7.F8.O9.E10.G模拟试题81.H2.A3.N4.O5.D6.M7.C8.G9.K10.B模拟试题91.F2.L3.I4.B5.K6.A7.E8.H9.D10.N模拟试题101.H2.L3.I4.J5.A6.F7.G8.N9.B10.K模拟试题111.N2.J3.O4.L5.B6.H7.E8.F9.I10.C。

Once you are in habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often 12 to be. A certain amount of stress is 13 to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor 14 and ill health.The amount of stress a person can 15 depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are 16 prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of 17 difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make choice between "fight" or "flight" and in more primitive days the choices made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so 18 , but however little the stress, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued 19 to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links withstress. Since we cannot 20 stress from our lives(it would be unwise to do so even if we could) , we need to find ways to deal with it.A.cancelB. paceC. extremeD. automaticallyE.removeF. vitalG. performanceH. supposedI.rate J. exposure K. achievement L. unusualMobviously N withstand O harsh参考答案11.

If you do, you must be an optimist, a leader, an active person who 11 life, people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead. You 12 to be a pessimist. At least, this is what psychologists tell us, and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, as well as the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us, among other 13 , that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up—we are born with our preference. If you happen to love brown, you did so, as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly.Colors do 14 our moods—there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is 15 .A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the 16 of more suicides than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell 17 ; perhaps it would have fallen even more ifthe bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.Light and 18 colors make people not only happier but more active.
