The Games have been a great success in promoting international friendshiop and understanding,and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sport.One small source of disappointment forthose who organize and take part in the games,however,has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able-bodied.Perhaps a few more years are still needed to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athlets should not be excluded.1.The first games for the desabled were held_____after Sir Ludwig Guttmann arrived in England.A.40yearsB.21yearsC.10yearsD.9years2.Besides Stoke Mandeville,surely the games for the disabled were once held in_____.A.New YorkB.LondonC.RomeD.Los Angeles3.In Paragraph3,the word"athletes"means_____.A.people who support the gamesB.people who watch the gamesC.people who organize the gamesD.people who compete in the games4.Which of the following statements in NOT true?A.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an early organizer of the games for the disabled.B.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an injured soldier.C.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is from Germany.D.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is welcomed by the British government.5.From the,we may conclude that the writer is_____.A.one of the organizers of the games for the disabledB.a disabled person who once took part in the gamesC.against holding the games for the disabledD.in favour of holding the games for the disabled四、书面表达：请起草一份中学学校通知，用一段话说明以下要点：参观日期：3月25日，星期天时间：早上8点钟出发。

Many even argue that each incoming freshman should have permanent access to his or hcr own microcomputer. What advantages do computers offer the college students?Any student who has used a word processor will know one compelling reason to use a computer: to write papers. Although not all students feel comfortable composing on a word processor, most find revising and editing much easier on it. One can alter, insert, or delete just by pressing a few keys, thus eliminating the need to rewrite or re-type. Furthermore, since the revision process is less burdensome, students are more likely to revise as often as is necessary to end up with the best paper possible. For these reasons, many freshmanEnglish courses require the use of a word processor.Computers are also useful in the context of language courses, where they are used to drill students in basic skills. Software programs reinforce ESL(English as a Second Language ) instruction, as well as instruction in French, German, Spanish, and other languages. By using these programs on a regular basis, students can improve their proficiency in a language while proceeding at their own pace.Science students take advantage of computers in many ways. Using computer graphic capabilities, for example, botany students can represent and analyze different plant growth patterns. Medical students can learn to interpret computerized images of internal body structures. Physics students can complete complex calculations far more quickly than they could without the use of computer.Similarly, business and accounting students find that computer spreadsheet programs are all but indispensable to many aspects of their work, while students pursuing careers in graphic arts. marketing, and public relations find that knowledge of computer graphic is important. Education majors learn to develop grading systems using computers, while social science students use computers for analyzing and graphically displacing their research results.It is no wonder, then, that educators support the purchase and use of microcomputers by students. A versatile tool, the computer can help students learn. And that is, after all, the reason for going to college.56. The word "literacy" (Line 1, Paragraph 1) means__________.A. the ability to read and writeB. the ability to useC. literatureD. the knowledge of language57. The main purpose of this passage is to __________.A. persuade the educators to increase computer use in their own classroomB. analyze advantages and disadvantages of computer use among college studentsC. identify some of the ways that computers benefit college studentsD. describe how computers can be used to teach foreign languages58. According to the author, a word processor can be used to __________.A. revise papersB. retype papersC. reduce the psychological burden of writing papersD. improve the writing skills of a student59. In this passage, the writers argument is developed primarily through the use of __________.A. cause-effect analysisB. comparison and contrastC. inductionD. examples60. According to the author, the reason for students to go to college is__________.A. to learn somethingB. to perfect themselvesC. to improve computer skillsD. to make the best use of computers英语四级仔细阅读模拟试题答案：56.B定位：根据题干信息可将答案直接定位到第一段第一句。

Watch the Mess.Don’t study in a messy or cramped area.Clear yourself a nice,open space that’s free of distractions.Set Manageable Goals.Break large projects into smaller and doableparts and you’ll feel a positive sense of accomplishment as you finish each part.Ocean Dumping.Visualize yourself walking on a beautiful beach,carrying a sandpail.Stop at a good spot and put your worries into the pail.Drop the pail andwatch as it drifts away into the ocean.Think Good Thoughts.Create a set of positive but brief affirmations and mentally repeat them to yourself just before you fall asleep at night,and you will feel a lot more positive in the morning.ImagineYourself Succeeding.Close your eyes and remember a real life situation in which you did well. Imagine facing your stressful situation with the same feelingsof e Your Bed for Sleeping,not Studying.Your mind may start toassociate your bed with work,which will make it harder for you to fall asleep.Soothing Sounds.If you want to play music,keep it low in the background.Classical music especially can aid the learning process.Take a Hike,Pal.Need a study break?Take a short,brisk walk.Clear your mind.26.If you meet a great difficulty,how can you reduce your stress?A.To retreat from it.B.To imagine that you are successful.C.To turn to others.D.To divide it into small parts and finish them one after another.27.“Ocean Dumping”really means____.A.putting things into the oceanB.forgetting one’s worriesC.swimming in the oceanD.sailing across the ocean28.The passage might be taken from____.A.a science fictionB.a report of a psychologistC.a popular magazineD.a text book29.According to the passage,which kind of people are easy to come underpressure?A.Open minded people.B.People with tidy habbits.C.Self confident people.D.Work addicts.30.As for the following statements about how to reduce one’s stress,which one hasn’t been mentioned?A.To work in a nice and neat environment.B.To smile when one fails.C.To divide an object into small parts.D.To have a rest after a long time’s work.Questions31to35are based on the following passage:It isn’t often that an entire industry is symbolized in the figure of a singlehuman being,and such is the case with Canadian aviation and the aircraft industry.The man is the Hon.John A.D.McCurdy,and the life story of this still vigorous,distinguished Canadian is at once and at the same time the thrilling history of aviation’s progress in Canada.It all began one cold February day in1909at Baddeck,Nova Scotia,when JohnMcCurdy confounded the critics by flying the Silver Dart,an aircraft designed by himself,for half a mile over the ice of Bras deor Lakes.This was the first powered flight in Canada and the first by a British subject in the Commonwealth.McCurdy gave proof of his flying ability—and of the development and the use of the aileron by being the first man in the world to execute a figure eight in the air.He became the first to pilot a flying boat,taking off from Long Island Sound.He flew the first airplane to Mexico. In1911he had made the longest flight to date,and that over open sea90miles from Key West to Havana.He won the first cross country race in Canada40miles from Hamilton to Toronto—and he transmitted the first radio message from aircraft.When World WarⅡcame,McCurdy took on board supervisory authority for Canadian aircraft production by serving with the government in various senior positions.Following World WarⅡ,McCurdy was honored by being made lieutenant governorof Nova Scotia where he made Canada’s first historic flight.He now lives in Montreal with a summer home in Baddeck,site of his first flight.31.According to the pasage,which of the following statements is NOT true about McCurdy?A.He was a Canadian.B.He is regarded as the symbol of Canadian aviation and aircraft industry.C.He is the first man to finish a figure eight in the air.D.He now lives in Baddeck.32.The“Silver Dart”is____.A.the name of a weaponB.a plane bought by McCurdyC.the nickname of a famous Canadian pilotD.a plane designed by McCurdy33.McCurdy is NOT the first one to____.A.fly in CanadaB.pilot a flying boatC.fly from Key West to TorontoD.fly to Mexico34.Nowadays,McCurdy____.A.lives in Montreal in summerB.is the lieutenant governor of Nova ScotiaC.is still very active and energeticD.is the government’s counsellor35.The best title for this passage is____.A.How McCurdy Became a Famous Canadian PilotB.McCurdy’s Legendary ExperienceC.McCurdy and the Canandian AviationD.McCurdy—the Symbol of American Aviation and the Aircraft IndustryQuestions36to40are based on the following passage:The oldest and simplest method,then of describing differences in personality was to classify people according to types,and such a system is called a Typology.A famous example of this method was set forth in Greece about the year400BC.A physician named Hippocrates theorized that there were four fluids,or humors,in the body. Corresponding to each humor,he believed,there existed a definite type of personality.The four humors were blood,yellow bile,black bile,and phlegm.A person in whom all four humors were in perfect balance had a harmonious personality.If a person had too much blood,he was called sanguine(血红色),or cheerful and optimistic.Someone with too much yellow bile was choleric, or irritable and easily angered.Too much black bile made a person melancholy,or depressed and pessimistic.An oversupply of phlegm caused a human being to be phlegmatic,or slow and unfeeling. Scientists have long since discarded Hippocrates’fluid theory.But the names of the humors, corresponding to these temperaments,have survived and are still useful,to some extent,in describing personality.Other features of people,such as their faces and physics,have also been used to classify personality.Today,however,personality theories and classifications may also include factors such as heredity(遗传特征),the environment,intelligence,and emotional needs.Psychology, biology,and sociology are involved in these theories.Because of the complexity of human personality,present day theories are often very different from one another.Psychologists vary in their ideas about what is most important in determining personality.36.According to Hippocrates’fluid theory,a man with too much phlegm will be____.A.optimisticB.easily angeredC.unexcitableD.pessimistic37.The main idea of this passage is about____.A.the complicated factors in determining one’s personalityB.Hippocrates’fluid theory and its developmentC.the past and today of personality classifications and theoriesD.different personalities and their details38.At present,psychologists____.A.have common opinion about personality theories and classificationse biology,archaeology and sociology to study personality theoriesC.have abandoned Hippocrates’fluid theory entirelyD.all agree that human beings are characterized with complex personalities39.The third paragraph mainly talks about____.A.Hippocrates’fluid theoryB.scientists’points of view on Hippocrutes’fluid theoryC.Hippocrates’fluid theory and its fateD.defects in Hippocrates’fluid theory40.According to this passage the factors which are still NOT used to classify personality are ____.A.one’s born features and needs of love and successB.one’s height and weightC.one’s hobbies and idealsD.the environment and intelligencePartⅢVocabulary and Structure(20minutes)Directions:There are30incomplete sentences in this part.For each sentence there are four

大学英语四级阅读模拟题及答案(3篇)

大学英语四级阅读模拟题及答案阅读1空调的危害Although many of us may feel air-conditioners bring relief from hot,humid or polluted outside air,they pose many potential health hazards.Much research has looked at how the movement of air inside a closed environment---such as an office building---can spread disease or expose people in the building to harmful chemicals.One of the more widely publicized dangers is that of Legionnaire’s disease,which was first recognized inthe1970s.This was found to have affected people in buildings with air-conditioning systems in which warmair pumped out of the system’cooling towers was somehow sucked back into the air intake(通风口),in mostcases due to poor design.The warm air,filled with bacteria,was combined with cooled,conditioned air andwas then circulated around various parts of the building. Studies showed that even people outside such buildings were at risk if they walked past air exhaust pipes.Large air-conditioning systems add water to the air they circulate by means of humidifiers(湿度调节器).Inolder systems,the water used for this process is kept in special reservoirs,the bottoms of which providebreeding grounds for bacteria which can find their way into the ventilation (通风)system.The risk to human health from this situation has been highlighted by the fact that the immune systems(免疫系统)of approximately half of workers in air-conditioned office buildings have developed the ability to fight off the organisms found at the bottom of system reservoirs. But chemicals called“biocides”are added to reservoirs to make them germ-free,and they are dangerous in their own right in sufficient quantities,as they often contain compounds strongly linked to cancers.Finally,it should be pointed out that the artificial climatic environment created byair-conditioners canalso affect us.In a natural environment,whether indoor or outdoor,there are small variations in temperature and humidity.Indeed,the human body has long been accustomed to these normal changes.In an air-conditioned living or working environment,however,body temperatures remain well under37℃,our normal temperature.This leads to a weakened immune system and thus greater exposure to diseases such as colds and flu.练习题：Choose correct answers to the question:1.What do we know about Legionnaire's disease from the passage?A.It was the most widely concerned office hazard.B.It can affect people both inside and outside the building.C.It happens only in air-conditioned office buildings.D.It does not develop in well-designed buildings.2.In the old air-conditioned systems,bacteria first develop______.A.in the reservoirsB.in the ventilation systemc.in the humidifiersD.in the air intake3.The fact that about half of workers developed the ability to fight off the bacteria may__.A.relieve people’s worry about the danger caused by the bacteriaB.help people find an effective way to get rid of the bacteriaC.reflect the serious danger brought by the bacteriaD.cause serious disease such as cancers to people4.The author most probably wants the readers to treat biocides with an attitude of_.A.cautionB.trustC.enthusiasmD.criticism5.The last paragraph implies that our immune system can be weakened when_•A.we live in an artificial climatic environmentB.there are variations in temperature and humidityC.our body temperatures often remain not high enoughD.we are often exposed to diseases such as colds and flu答案解析：1.[B]事实细节题。

大学英语四级精选模拟试卷及答案(2)

大学英语四级考试精选模拟试卷（2）Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题，每小题2分，共40分)Directions:In this part there are four passages.Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions.Read the passage and answer the questions.Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Questions1to5are based on the following passage:In Washington D.C.,1600Pennsylvania Avenue is a very special address.It is the address of the White House,the home of the president of the United States.Originally the White House was gray and was called the Presidential Palace.It was built from 1792to1800.at this time,the city of Washington itself was being built;it was to be the nation’s new capital city.George Washington,the first president,and Pierre Charles L’Enfant,a French engineer,chose the place for the new city.L’Enfant then planned they city.The president’s home was an important part of the plan.A contest was held to pick a design for the president’s home.An architect named James Hoban won.He designed a large three-story house of gray stone.President Washington never lived in the President Palace.The first president to live there was John Adams,the second president of the United States,and his wife Mrs.Adams did not really like hew new house.In her letters,she often complained about the cold.Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm!In1812the United States and Britain went to war.In1814the British invaded Washington.Theu burned many buildings,including the Presidential Palace.After the war James Hoban,the original architect,partially rebuilt the president’s homes.To cover the marks of the fire,the building was painted white.Before long it became known as the White House.The White House is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States.Every year more than1.5million visitors go through the five rooms that are open to the public.1.The White House was built in Washington.A.because a French engineer was invited to design itB.because President George Washington liked to live in itC.because the British invaders lived in it in1812-1814D.because it was to be the nation’s capital city2.The Presidential Palace was.A.painted gray and whiteB.made of gray stoneC.made of white stoneD.made very warm in winter3.The president’s home and the city of Washington were.A.built by the American armyB.built by the British troopsC.planned by George WashingtonD.planned by the French4.The original home of the president needed to be rebuilt.A.because John Adam’s wife did not like itB.because it was cold in winter even with50fireplacesC.because it had burned down during the warD.because George Washington was not willing to live in it5.The new presidential home was painted white to.A.cover the marks of fireB.attract tourist from FranceC.to please Mrs.John AdamsD.keep it warm in winterPassage2Questions6to10are based on the following passage:There are two kinds of memory:shot-term and rmation in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed.The information may be kept for days or weeks.However, information over and over.The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were75college students.They represented all levels of ability in English:beginning,intermediate,and native-speaking students.To begin,the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording,the subjects took a15-question test to see which words they remembered, each question had four choices.The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike.For example,weather,whether,wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike.Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning.Method,way,manner,and system would be four words with the same meaning.Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike;students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning.Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory,and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.6.Henning made the experiment in order to study.A.how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB.how students learn English vocabularyC.how to develop students’ability in EnglishD.how long information in short-term memory is kept7.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?rmation in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B.Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C.It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.D.Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.8.From Henning’s result we can see that.A.beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB.advanced students remember words by their meaningC.it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD.it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning9.The word“subjects”in the passage means.A.memoryB.the theme of listening materialC.a branch of knowledge studiedD.the students experimented onPassage3Questions11to15are based on the following passage:The cowboy is the hero of many movies,.He is,even today,a symbol of courage and adventure. But what was the life of the cowboy really like?The cowboy’s job is clear from the word cowboy.Cowboy were men who took care of cows and other cattle.The cattle were in the West and in Texas.People in the cities of the East wanted beef these cattle.Trains could take the cattle east.But first the cattle had to get to the trains. Part of the cowboy’s job was to take the cattle hundreds of miles to the railroad town.The trips were called cattle drivers.A cattle drive usually took several months.Cowboys rode for sixteen hours a day.Because they rode so much,each cowboy brought along about eight horses.A cowboy changed horses several times each day.The cowboys had to make sure that cattle arrived safely.Before starting on a drive,the cowboys branded the cattle.They burned a mark on the cattle to show who they belonged to.But these marks didn’t stop rustlers,or cattle thieves.Cowboys had to protect the cattle from rustlers.Rustlers made the dangerous trip even more dangerous.Even though their work was very difficult and dangerous,cowboys did not earn much money.They were paid badly.Yet cowboys liked their way of life.They lived in a wild and open country.They lived a life of adventure and freedom.11.A cowboy is a symbol of.A.courage and adventureB.a hard life and big payC.movies in the pastD.cows and other cattle12.The cowboys’job was.A.to be a hero in real lifeB.to be a hero of the movieC.to take care of cattleD.to be a dangerous rustler13.During a cattle driver,cowboys took a group of cows from a wild and open country to.A.the West states and TexasB.the cities of the East StatesC.the people who eat beef in citiesD.the railroad towns hundred miles away14.On their way of cattle drivers,the cowboys protected the cattle by.A.burning a mark on their cowsB.keeping an eye on cattle thievesC.making the trip more dangerousD.looking after eight cows each person15.Cowboys enjoyed themselves because.A.they liked their way of lifeB.they made a lot of moneyC.they had a vary difficult jobD.they were heroes in moviesPassage4Questions16to20are based on the following passage:Successful innovations have driven many older technologies to extinction and have resulted in higher productivity,greater consumption of energy,increased demand of raw materials,accelerated flow of materials through the economy and increased quantities of metals and other substances in use each person.The history of industrial development abounds with examples.In1870,horses and mules were the prime source of power on U.S.farms.One horse or mule was required to support four human beings a ratio that remained almost constant for many decades. At that time,had a national commission been asked to forecast the population for1970,its answer probably would have depended on whether its consultants were of an economic or technological turn of mind.Had they been“economists”,they would probably have projected the1970horses or mule population to be more than50million.Had they been“technologists”,they would have recognized that the power of steam had already been harnessed to industry and to learn and ocean transport. They would have recognized further that it would be the prime source of power on the farm.Itwould have been difficult for them to avoid the conclusion that the horse and mule population would decline rapidly.16.According to the passage,what supplied most of the power on U.S.farms in1870?A.AnimalsB.HumansC.EnginesD.Water17.Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the author as a consequence of new technological developments?A.Older technologies die away.B.The quality of life is Improved.C.Overall productivity increase.D.More raw materials become necessary.18.It can be inferred from the passage that by1870.A.technology began to be more economicalB.the steam engine had been inventedC.the U.S.horse population was about10millionD.a national commission was about10million19.In the second paragraph,the author suggests that“economists”would.A.plan the economy through yearly forecastsB.fail to consider the influence of technological innovationC.value the economic contribution of farm animalsD.consult the national commission on the economy20.What is the author’s attitude toward changes brought on by technological innovations?A.He is excited about them.B.He accept them as natural.C.He is disturbed by them.D.He questions their usefulness.Questions16to20are based on the following passage:This semester I began to have a series of teacher nightmares,something that had not happened to me for years,not since my first year of teaching when I was in a perpetual state of dread.I would be rushing to get to class on time,trying to gather up notes from a maelstrom of papers on my desk,not certain what subject we were covering today,indeed not even certain what course I was teaching.My heart was pounding.I was late.I would not find my notes.A hundred people were waiting for me in the classroom,their pens poised to take down my every syllable,and I had nothing to say.Them Mr.Winthrop’s big blonde face with those dark eyes would loom at the door of my office,and with that mocking grin,he would say,“Professor,the class is waiting for you,”and I would faint dead onto the floor.Or sometimes in my dream I would make it to the podium(讲台),start to lecture on some aspect of criminal law or causation,only to have Mr.Winthrop raise his hand,and without even waiting to be called upon,presumably ask a question. Presumably because I could not make out his words.I could see his mouth moving underneath his baseball cap,and muffled sounds resounded in my ears,but I could not understand him.All eyes in the classroom were on me,and my students began to laugh,but not Mr.Winthrop.He continued to move his mouth,and I felt as if I was watching TV with the sound off except that my head was all a buzz with the laughter and the shuffling of feet as my students exited in disgust.Again, I ended the nightmare by fainting dead away onto the floor,and then I would wake up,my sheets damp from desperation.It was enough to make a man get out of bed and mix a drink at four in the morning even if he had the eight o’clock class.16.From this passage,it is indicated that.A.the first year of teaching is unforgettable and frightening for me foreverB.nightmares have happened to me more often than not since my first year of teachingC.in my first year of teaching,I was always full of fearsD.as a teacher,I feel uneasy all the time17.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.I was quite clear about the subject I was to deal with before class.B.I would give the lectures on time.C.I prepared the notes carefully before class.However,I forgot to take them with me to the classroom.D.My heart was beating faster and faster before class.18.Mr.Winthrop is.A.a presumable studentB.a baseball loverC.the student who often teases the teacherD.the student who answers the teacher’s question in a humorous way19.In my nightmare,it would happen to me except that.A.I sometimes was very calm to see that my students were in disguiseB.when I gave the lecture,Mr.Minthrop was the only student to ask a questionC.I often fall down to the floor losing my consciousness before I woke upD.I would rather wake up to have a good drink in the early morning than have the nightmare20.The tone of this passage is.A.provokingB.sensationalC.desperateD.profoundPart II Vocabulary and

Part ⅡReading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1.For questions 1~7, markY (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage;N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage;NG (for NOT GIVEN)if the information is not given in the passage.For questions 8~10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.The T rouble with T elevisionIt is difficult to escape the influence of television. If you fit the statistical averages, by the age of 20 you will have been exposed to at least 20,000 hours of television. Y ou can add10,000 hours for each decade you have lived after the age of 20. The only things Americans do more than watch television are work and sleep.Calculate for a moment what could be done with even a part of those hours. Five thousand hours, I am told, are what a typical college undergraduate spends working on a bachelors degree. In 10,000 hours you could have learned enough to become an astronomer or engineer. Y ou could have learned several languages fluently. If it appealed to you, youcould be reading Homer in the original Greek or Dostoyevsky in Russian. If it didn t, you could have walked around the world and written a book about it.The trouble with television is that it discourages concentration. Almost anything interesting and rewarding in life requires some constructive, consistently applied effort. The dullest,the least gifted of us can achieve things that seem miraculous to those who never concentrate onanything. But television encourages us to apply no effort. It sells us instantgratification（满意）. It diverts us only to divert, to make the time pass without pain. Television s variety becomes a narcotic（麻醉的）, nor a stimulus. Its serial, kaleidoscopic （万花筒般的）exposures force us to follow its lead. The viewer is on a perpetual guidedtour: 30 minutes at the museum, 30 at the cathedral, 30 for a drink, then back on the bus to the next attraction—except on television, typically, the spans allotted arc on theorder of minutes or seconds, and the chosen delights are more often car crashes and people killing one another. In short, a lot of television usurps（篡夺；侵占）one of the mostprecious of all human gifts, the ability to focus your attention yourself, rather than just passively surrender it.Capturing your attention—and holding it—is the prime motive of most television programming and enhances its role as a profitable advertising vehicle. Programmers live in constantfear of losing anyone s attention—anyone s. The surest way to avoid doing so is to keep everything brief, not to strain the attention of anyone but instead to provide constantstimulation through variety, novelty, action and movement. Quite simply, television operates on the appeal to the short attention span.It is simply the easiest way out. But it has come to be regarded as a given, as inherent in the medium itself; as an imperative, as though General Sarnoff, or one of the other augustpioneers of video, had bequeathed（遗留；传于）to us tablets of stone commanding that nothing in television shall ever require more than a few moments Concentration.In its place that is fine. Who can quarrel with a medium that so brilliantly packages escapist entertainment as a mass marketing tool? But I see its values now pervading this nationand its life. It has become fashionable to think that, like fast food, fast ideas are the way to get to a fast moving, impatient public.In the case of news, this practice, in my view, results in inefficient communication. I question how much of television s nightly news effort is really absorbable and understandable.Much of it is what has been aptly described as “machine gunning with scraps.”I think the technique fights coherence. I think it tends to make things ultimately boring (unless theyare accompanied by horrifying pictures) because almost anything is boring if you know almost nothing about it.I believe that TV s appeal to the short attention span is not only inefficient communication but decivilizing as well. Consider the casual assumptions that television tends tocultivate: that complexity must be avoided, that visual stimulation is a substitute for thought, thatverbal precision is an anachronism. It may be old fashioned, but I was taughtthat thought is words, arranged in grammatically precise.There is a crisis of literacy in this country. One study estimates that some 30 million adult Americans are “functionally illiterate” and cannot read or write well enough to answer thewant ad or understand the instructions on a medicine bottle.Literacy may not be an inalienable human right, but it is one that the highly literate Founding Fathers might not have found unreasonable or even unattainable. We are not only notattaining it as a nation, statistically speaking, but we are falling further and further short of attaining it. And, while I would not be so simplistic as to suggest that television is thecause, I believe it contributes and is an influence.Everything about this nation—the structure of the society, its forms of family organization, its economy, its place in the world—has become more complex, not less. Y et itsdominating communications instrument, its principal form of national linkage, is one that sells neat resolutions to human problems that usually have no neat resolutions. It is allsymbolized in my mind by the hugely successful art form that television has made central to the culture, the 30 second commercial: the tiny drama of the earnest housewife whofinds happiness in choosing the right toothpaste.When before in human history has so much humanity collectively surrendered so much of its leisure to one toy, one mass diversion? When before has virtually an entire nationsurrendered itself wholesale to a medium for selling?Some years ago Y ale University law professor Charles L. Black. Jr. wrote: “… forced feeding on trivial fare is not itself a trivial matter. I think this society is being forced, fed with trivialfare, and I fear that the effects on our habits of mind, our language, our tolerance for effort, and our appetite for complexity are only dimly perceived. If I am wrong, we will havedone no harm to look at the issue skeptically and critically, to consider how we should be residing it. I hope yo u will join with me in doing so.”注意：此部分试题在答题卡1上作答；8~10题在答题卡1上。

As a typical application, the use of PPT in class is becoming increasingly popular.As we know, every coin has two sides. On one hand, the use of PPT in class expands knowledge and makes teaching easy, wonderful and vivid. In place of complex explanation output by teachers, show of text, sound, image and video in PPT stimulates students’ interests and help them understand intuitively especially in face of abstract concepts. Lesson study becomes more effective and interesting for students.On the other hand, relying too much on PPT weakens teachers’ ability. Many teachers read PPT directly lacking communications with students. Besides, some design of PPT is overwhelming which distracts students’ attention.As far as I am concerned, PPT is just a kind of teaching assistant. Teachers is expected to use it appropriately rather than pursuit its effects excessively.【选词填空第2套】26.I normal27.E definitely28.D considerable29.J possibly30.B argued31.K proposition32.N tend33.C avoid34.F extreme35.G inaction【信息匹配第2套】Why are Asian Americans Missing from out textbook?36.

It may be a free period or a regular wait, say in the queue for a bus or meal --- even while eating breakfast. One famous surgeon always made it a rule to spend at least 15 minutes on general reading before he went to sleep each night. Whether he went to bed at 10 pm or 2:30 am made no difference. Even if you cannot keep to this kind of discipline, it is a good idea to make sure you always have a general interest book in your pocket. Don't forget it should be a book which entertains you and the English must not be too difficult for you.Nearly all "speed reading" courses have a "pacing" element --- some timing device which lets the student know how many words a minute he is reading. You can do this simply by looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes and noting down the page number you have reached. Check the average number of words per page for the particular book you are busy reading. Well, this is difficult at first. A friend can help by timing you over a set period, or you can read within hearing distance of a public clock which strikes the quarter hours. Pace yourself every three or four days, always with the same kind of easy, general interest book. You should soon notice your habitual w.p.m. rate creeping up.6.The passage recommends setting aside __C__ for reading practice.A two hours a dayB one hour a dayC 15 minutes or half an hour a dayD three minutes a day before meal7.One famous surgeon always made it a rule to read __B__ .A 15 minutes at 10 pm each nightB for at least 15 minutes at bedtimeC no matter it was early or lateD whenever he had a spare moment8.It is a good idea always to carry in your packet _D___ .A a book you will never forgetB a serious bookC several books of various kindsD an easy and interesting English book9.According to the passage, a "pacing" device ___A_ .A measures a student's reading speedB is not included in most speed reading coursesC is an aid to vocabulary learningD should be used whenever we read alone10.Looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes __D__ .A avoids the need for reading fasterB is not the same as pacingC is not easy at firstD helps you to remember the page number you were at last timePassage 2Old Japanese living alone can now hire a "family" for lunch and a few hours' pleasant talk. Just give them a telephone call and ask for, say, a daughter, son-in-law and grandchild. They will show up at your door, and greet you emotionally as if they hadn't seen you for years.Some 15 couples have so far hired "families". "We have nearly 80 people on the waiting list." Said the president of the company that offers such services, "What is common about these senior citizens is that they are thirsty for human love. We are helping them make their dreams come true."Where once big families with three or more generations living together were common, now numbers are reducing fast. In cities there are very few indeed. Many old people see their families only rarely, if at all. This may be because the children's bosses have sent them to a distant city, even abroad, or just because busy family members cannot find time to visit their parents."We've seen many cases in which parent-children relations are not in a happy state," company president continues. "When a son finally visits his parents after a long while, it is often just to ask for money or for them to let him have their property （财产）early."Loneliness is not a one-way street. "One young mother came to us to ask about grandparents," he added.The company is now developing into other fields. Their services include providing "employees" for businessmen to scold and "lovers" for young people unlucky in love. Company's "lovers" for hire is not a service to be misunderstood, company president makes clear."You shouldn't think about our lover too romantically," he said, "She's there to act as an adviser on how to find a girlfriend."11,Old couples in Japan hire family members__C___.A to ask for help when they are illB to realize their big-family dreamsC to seek love and comfortD to strengthen parent-children relations12.In the sentence "what is common about these senior citizens is that they are thirsty for human love", "senior citizens" could best be replaced by _D___.A high-ranking officials in citiesB rich old couples living in citiesC respectable ladies and gentlemenD old people13.Which of the following is not the reason that Japanese grown-ups seldom visit their parents?A They are too busy.B They work in distant cities.C They can't afford expensive visits to their parents.D Their relations are not very tight.14."Loneliness is not a one-way street" means that ___A__ .A both the old and the young will feel lonelyB living alone is not a one-way streetC young mother with a little child will feel lonelyD one young mother will hire "grandparents" for their child15.
