That’s all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see the strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping.In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one. The only rest Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother’s having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? Nobody was sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.31. The main idea of this passage is that .A. large numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep32. The doctor came to visit Herpin, expecting .A. to cure him of his sleeplessnessB. to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC. to find out why some old people didn’t need any sleepD. to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping33. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was .A. his mother’s injury before he was bornB. that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC. that he hadn’t got a bedD. his magnificent physical condition34. Herpin’s condition could be regarded as .A. a common oneB. curableC. very healthyD. a rare onePassage BOn April 26, 1986, I was five years old. I can’t remember this day very well, but it turned out to be a disaster not only for our family, but also for thousands of people from many countries. It was a really nice, warm and sunny day.I was outside with my elder brother and my little 13-day-old sister, who was sleeping in a pram under a tree.Suddenly dark clouds appeared in the sky and a strong wind started to blow. Our mum told us to come into the house. While we were gathering our toys, she was trying to take the pram. The first drop of “rain” fell on my sister. It was only later that we found out the rain was radioactive water.At first we were not told anything about the accident. The government “didn’t want people to panic.”But they were afraid that the second reactor(反应堆)would blow up. Trains were made ready to send people away from our city.Since then the word “radiation”has come into and changed our life. Chernobyl deprived(剥夺) me of many joys of my childhood. Life went on as usual. I grew up and went to school. I studied very well. In 1998, I graduated from high school with honors and dreamed of entering a university. And here again Chernobyl interfered. Iwas diagnosed with a brain tumor(脑瘤). My parents came back from Minsk, where my sister had just undergone a brain tumor operation. I didn’t know how to tell mum that we had to go back to Minsk again for another operation straight after my sister’s. This was how Chernobyl poisoned my youth.35. People didn’t know the accident of Chernobyl at first, because .A. the government wanted to keep it secretB. the weather was too badC. the train took them awayD. nobody knew the truth36. Who got the same terrible illness as I did after the accident?A. My elder brother.B. My little sister.C. My mother.D. My father.37. What does “blow up” in the fourth paragraph mean?A. Fly.B. Close.C. Explode.D. Move.38. Why did the parents have to go back to Minsk again?A. Because my sister would have another operation.B. Because I would have an operation.C. Because Minsk was far from danger.D. Because I entered a university there.Passage COn December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was planning to take the bus home from work as usual. She had just finished working as a seamstress(女裁缝) at a department store and then walked to the bus stop. As she first boarded the bus, she noticed that the driver was the same man who had sent her off his bus years earlier because she would not go around to the back door after she was already on the bus. She decided to get on anyway and sit down, but she did not sit at the very front of the bus. She took a seat next to a black man in the first row that “colored” people were allowed to sit in. At the next stop, some white people got on the bus. After they filled up the white seats, one man was left standing. When the driver noticed him standing, he told Rosa and the others in her row to let the man have a seat. Three people stood up, but the driver saw that Rosa was still sitting there. He asked if she would stand up, and she refused. Then he told her he would have her arrested, and Rosa told him he could do that.A few minutes later, two policemen got on the bus. When the driver told them that Rosa would not stand up, the policemen walked over to her and asked her why she wouldn’t get up. Rosa said she didn’t think she should stand up and asked, “Why do you push us around?” One policeman answered,“I don’t know, but the law is the law, and you are under arrest.”As soon as he said that, Rosa stood up. Then one of the policemen picked up her purse while the other picked up her shopping bag, and the three left the bus. Finally, they took Rosa to the police station in the car.Rosa’s action that day started a citywide boycott(联合抵制) of the bus system by Blacks that lasted more than a year. This later resulted in the decision against segregation on city buses in the US.39. The driver told Rosa that he would have her arrested because .A. she refused to give her seat to a white manB. she was sitting in the row for white peopleC. she was not allowed to have a seat on the busD. she was black40. Where was Rosa Parks taken finally?A. The bus stop.B. The police station.C. The department store.D. The next bus.第Ⅱ卷(共45分)四、英汉互译(15*2=30分)41.

But news about one person actually doing harm to another changes our estimate of other people for the worse."函授站名:年级 09 机械.法学层次升学号学生姓名成绩In an early experiment in 1968, Dr. Hornstein and his associates, who had been dropping wallets (钱包) for two years to test the honesty of people, discovered that on June 4, 1968, not one wallet was returned."That was the night Robert F. Kennedy was shot," he recalled. "Strangers suddenly seemed dangerous, and nobody wanted to return a lost wallet to a stranger."But good news on the other hand, lifts us up," he stressed, citing the date of July 4, 1976, America's Bicentennial (两百年的) celebration. "On that day, we all felt safe and good. Being American was the thing. We all felt as if we all belonged together."Recent tests support these conclusions. In one experiment, 60 subjects were exposed to good news, bad news or music. Then they were told to play a game with a non-existent person supposedly in another room. It was a game of choice that emphasized cooperation or competition.After hearing good news, the overwhelming majority, 91 percent, played cooperatively. But after hearing bad news, competitive responses were over three times as high –up to 28 percent, from 9 percent."If we watch television and see a lot of blood," said Dr. Hornstein, "we're probably assuming that the world is a dirtier place than we assumed before we saw that TV violence. And we'll deal with the next individual we come upon as if he is part of that grim (冷酷的) picture of humanity. After the good news, it's the reverse."26. According to the findings of researchers at Columbia University, when people hear good news, they feel__________.A)happier B)more kindly toward othersC)safer than they really are D)more competitive27. Dr. Harvey Hornstein found that when people hear news about one person actually doing harm to another, they tend to ________.A)regard other people as worse than they really areB)treat total strangers as suspects of cruel crimesC)become hostile towards neighbors and friendsD)think about the common problems facing mankind28. What did Dr. Harvey Hornstein and his associates discover on the night of June 4, 1968?A)Robert F. Kennedy was shot.B)Their wallets were lost.C)People in America suddenly became dishonest.D)Nobody returned the wallets they dropped.29. We can infer from the passage that on July 4, 1976, most probably ________.A)people drank and sang and danced B)lost wallets were returned to their ownersC)everybody wanted to be American D)even criminals were friendly to others30. We can conclude from the passage that ________.A)violence on TV leads to more violence on the streetsB)broadcasters should emphasize good news rather than bad newsC)the world is a dirtier place than we assume it to beD)people are more competitive when they are faced with challengesPassage TwoLaura walked towards the man. "It is terribly cold," she said."Colder than ever," the man said. "Now tell me what the hell you want." He stared at Laura for a few seconds, and then grinned. "Maybe you'd like to come inside and warm up.""No. No, I don't want to come in." She took a deep breath. "I just wanted to know if you're interested in selling your dog.""That worthless mutt?" The man pointed to a dog in the yard and laughed for a few seconds, then suddenly stopped. "I was just joking about the worthless part. He's a pretty good dog. Yeah, I might be interested.""Well, he's the kind of dog I'm looking for, and it doesn't look to me like you're too fond of him. I mean he's tied up outside. I don't see any food or water.""You just wait a minute. I take good care of that dog. The guy I got him from said he was a trained guard dog. Trouble is the stupid thing doesn't even bark when strangers come around. But then I guess that wouldn't matter to you. You're probably just looking for a pet, huh?""Yeah, well here's your chance to get rid of him. I'll give you twenty dollars."He snorted (哼着鼻子说). "You expect me to sell a purebred guard dog for twenty dollars? Fifty dollars. That's my price. You bring me fifty dollars, honey, and you got yourself a dog." The man smiled. "Sure you don't want to come in?"Laura shook her head. "I'll be back with the money." Breakfast forgotten, she searched for and found a cash machine four blocks away. I can't afford this, she thought as she punched the numbers into the machine. The dog will need a vet (兽医) and where am I going to get the money for that? Her fears faded (消退) as she pictured the dog, curled up, not outside on the cold, hard ground, but in front of a glowing fireplace. Blue ceramic bowls filled with food and water sat in the corner of the kitchen, and she saw him, head held high, matching her stride (大步) on their daily walk.With the money in her purse she hurried back to the man's house.31. Why did Laura walk up to the man?A)To ask him where she could buy a pet. B)To see if she could buy his dog.C)To give him a morning greeting. D)To ask him to let her in and warm up.32. For what purpose had the man bought the dog?A)To protect his home. B)To get rid of his loneliness.C)To breed pet dogs. D)To make money.函授站名:年级 09 机械.法学层次升学号学生姓名成绩33.

How come Laura's worry about money faded?A)The dog will lead a happy life under her good care.B)She will soon get a good job and earn money to pay the vet.C)She will have a guard dog beside her as she takes a walk.D)She's got the money in her purse to pay for the pet she desired.Passage ThreeAlthough Thomas Jefferson did not begin the effort of designing the University of Virginia until late in his life, the education of the common man had occupied his thoughts for decades. He believed ignorance (无知) to be the enemy of freedom, and he wanted to correct what he considered to be the weaknesses of educational institutions (机构) modeled on European settings. He imagined that an "academical village" around a tree-lined lawn would provide an ideal setting in which to pursue higher education. The center of such a village would be a Temple of Knowledge that would house the university library. When Virginia decided to set up a state university in 1818, the retired U.S. President finally was able to devote his talent, time, and energy to creating this new kind of educational institution. By the time he was finished with his design, Jefferson had invented an entirely new American setting for higher education: the college campus. In 1812, Jefferson chose to begin building his "academical village," the University of Virginia, in Charlottesville, VA, far away from the city center. He intended this spot to promote learning because it was natural and unspoiled, and far from anything that could distract or harm the students. The University consists of two rows of houses, five on each side, leading to a main building. This main building, the Rotunda, became the most important part of the University, because it contained the library. By focusing his entire institution on the library, instead of around the church, Jefferson revolutionized American university architecture. Jefferson's aim was to create a new institutional form for his ideal educational system, a system he thought should give every citizen the information he needs for carrying out his daily business. This new approach to citizenship and education demanded a new type of university, one where students and professors could coexist and share ideas. He attempted to create this environment by combining the professors' houses and students' classrooms, and linking all the buildings with covered walkways so intellectual exchanges between departments could go on smoothly. Jefferson had also recognized the importance of the students' whole life, and given much thought and planning to the students' dining, living, and exercise facilities (设施).36. Jefferson devoted much of his thought to the education of the common man because he believed _______.A)everyone who loved freedom hated ignoranceB)a country could not be strong without educationC)an uneducated man could not gain full freedomD)European educational institutions did not suit America37. According to Jefferson, the center of a university should be _______.A)the church B)the libraryC)the lawn D)the classrooms38. Jefferson chose to locate the University of Virginia far away from the city center because _____. A)land in the city center could not be found B)there was a tree-lined lawn thereC)this was a European tradition D)there was no distraction for the students39. In Jefferson's view, an ideal educational system should ________.A)be one under which every citizen enjoys equal opportunityB)give everyone the information he needs for conducting his businessC)ensure that everyone has a chance to enter an institution of higher learningD)provide students with a natural and unspoiled setting for learning40. What was made easy by the revolutionized American campus?A)Students' learning.B)Intellectual exchange.C)Professors' teaching.D)Both students' and professors' life.Part III CloseWhy don’t birds get lost on their long flights? Experiments showed that birds depend 41 the sun to guide them during daylight 42 . But what about birds that fly mainly by night? Tests with artificial stars have proved that night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their 43 flights.One such bird, a warbler, had 44 its lifetime in a cage and never has flown under a 45 sky. Yet it showed a great ability to use stars for guidance. When the birds cage 46 under an artificial star-filled sky, the bird tried to fly in the same direction 47 that taken by its outdoor cousins.Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance, Stare are their principal means of navigation (导航) 48 night. What do they do when the 49 are hidden by clouds? Clearly, they found their way by mountains, coast lines and rivers. But when it is too dark to see these, the warblers circle helplessly, 50 to get their direction.函授站名:年级 09 机械.法学层次升学号学生姓名成绩41. A. to B. at C. on D. in42. A. moments B. hours C. seasons D. weeks43.

AA taxi driver was found yesterday on the driver's seat of his car with a knife in his back, but police said that he had not been murdered.The 55-year-old was discovered falling forward on the steering wheel(方向盘)with only his head and shoulders inside the car. His unconscious body was found in Compass Close at about 6.30 am.The driver was wearing a tie and a waistcoat and appeared to have been upstairs when he was attacked. He was bleeding heavily from a wound in his back,believe to have been caused by a large knife or a sword.There was no sign of a car robbery(抢劫).The driver noticed nothing until he was knifed (刺伤), said a spokesman after a three-hour police search of the scene(现场)."We know the wounds couldn't have been self-inflicted(自我施伤)and the knife couldn't have been thrown from some distance," he said. Detectives were concentrating(集中注意力)on two possibilities.The first is that the driver was searching for a customer of his who stopped him from serving another customer nearby. It is suggested that the man was working on behalf of an illegal taxi business and got angry because of the competition.The second possibility is that the passenger not only had bus coat, but also had a sniper and fired with it at the driver from some distance away.Detectives refused to say why it was believed the first attacker was the more likely of the two.

Do you "Google" something to find an answer and use Wikipedia to learn about events in history? It seems strange to think that not long ago, students used books as their primary source of information.The internet has undoubtedly made learning more convenient. Gone are the days of spending hours in a library searching through countless books for information. Instead, we can now access a wealth of information with just a few clicks.However, with convenience comes the challenge of finding reliable sources. Not everything you read online is accurate, so it is important to evaluate the information you find. Here are some tips to help you determine whether a website is reliable:Check the source: Is the website run by an established organization, like a university or reputable news outlet? Does the author have relevant qualifications or expertise?Look for citations: Reliable sources usually list their references and give credit to the original authors. This allows you to verify the information and ensure its credibility.Consider the date: Is the information up to date? Some topics change rapidly, so it is important to find current and accurate information.Evaluate the website design: Professional and well-designed websites are more likely to be reliable. If a website has poor layout and many spelling errors, it may not be trustworthy.Read critically: Even if a website seems reliable, it is still important to think critically about the information you find. Look for biases or agendas in the content.In conclusion, the internet provides a wealth of information at our fingertips. However, it is crucial to evaluate sources and think critically about the information we consume. With these skills, we can make the most of the internet as a tool for learning and knowledge sharing.6. According to the passage, what did students use before the internet?A. Computers.B. Books.C. Libraries.D. Wikipedia.7. What is the challenge of using the internet for learning?A. Finding reliable sources.B. Spending too much time in the library.C. Searching through countless books.D.

For each question there arefour choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answerto each question.Passage 1Most Americans don’t like to get advice from members of theirfamily. When they need advice, they don’t usually ask people theyknow. Instead many Americans write letters to newspapers andmagazines which give advice on many different subjects, includingfamily problems, sex, the use of language, health, cooking, childcare, clothes, and how to buy a house or a car.Most newspapers regularly print letters from readers withproblems. Along with the letters there are answers written bypeople who are supposed to know how to solve such problems.Some of these writers are doctors; others are lawyers or educators.But two of the most famous writers of advice are women withoutspecial training for these kinds of work. One of them answersletters addressed to “Dear Abby”. The other is addressed as “DearAnn Landers”. Experience is their preparation for giving advice.There is one writer who hasn’t lived long enough to have muchexperience. She is a girl named Angel Cavaliere, who startedwriting advice for newspaper readers at the age of ten. Her adviceto young readers now appears regularly in the Philadelphia Bulletinin a column called DEAR ANGEL.11. What are most Americans usually do if they need advice?______.A.

By intelligence we mean a way of living andbehaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want totest intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead ofhow much he knows what to do.For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happento him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediatelyand tries to do something about it. He probably isn’t sure how itwill all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can’t make thingswork out right, he doesn’t feel ashamed that he failed; he just triesto learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is veryyoung, has a special outlook on life, and a special feeling about life,and knows how he fits into it. If you look at children, you’ll seegreat difference between what we call “bright children” and “notbright children”. They are actually two different kinds of people,not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. Forexample, the bright child really wants to find out life- he tries to getin touch with everything around him. But, the unintelliegent childkeeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to havea wall between him and life in general.16. According to this passage, intelligence is ______.A. the ability to study wellB. the ability to do well in schoolC. the ability to deal with lifeD. the ability to get high scores17. In a new situation, an intelligent person______.A. knows more about what might happen to him.B. concentrates on what to do about the situationC. is sure of the result he will getD. cares more about himself18. If an intelligent person failed, he would______.A. try not to feel ashamed.B. learn from his experiencesC. try to regret as much as possibleD. make sure what result he would get19. Bright children and not-bright children______.A. are two different types of childrenB. are different mainly in their degree of clevernessC. have different only in their way of thinkingD. have different knowledge about the world20. The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about______.A. how to determine what intelligence isB. how education should be foundC. how to solve practical problemsD how an unintelligent person should be taughtPart III Vocabulary & Structure 词汇与结构 (20×2=40)Directions: In this section there are 20 incomplete sentences.

When a piece of ice is taken into a warm room, it is no more ice very soon. It is turned into water by the heat.When clothes are washed in cold days, they are often hung up near a fire. Steam rises from the wet clothes. A basin of water will soon be covered with ice outside the door in winter.Most matter has three states: solid, liquid and gas. If we raise their temperature high enough, solids can usually be turned into liquids and liquids into gases. On the other hand, gases canoften be turned into liquids and liquids into solids if they are made cold enough.By the changes of these three states, the steam engine has been invented, and many things are made from iron or steel through melting and moulding.61.How can ice be turned into water?A.

But one thing still puzzles old Harold. How is it that he can leave Betty and her friend Joan sitting on the sofa, talking, go out to a ballgame, come back three and a half hours later, and they' re still on the sofa? Talking?What in the world, Harold wonders, do they have to talk about?Betty shrugs. Talk? We are friends.Researching this matter called friendship, psychologist Lillian Rubin spent two years interviewing more than two hundred women and men. No matter what their age, their job, their sex, the results were completely clear: women have more friendships than men, and the difference in the content and the quality of those friendships is "marked and unmistakable."More than two-mirds of the single men Rubin interviewed could not name a best friend. Those who could were likely to name a woman. Yet three-quarters of the single women had no problem naming a best friend, and almost always it was a woman. More married men than women named their wife/husband as a best friend, most trusted person, or the one they would turn to in time of emotional distress (感情危机). "Most women," says Rubin, "identified at least one, usually more, trusted friend to whom they could turn in a troubled moment, and they spoke openly about the importance of these relationships in their lives.""In general," writes Rubin in her new book, "women*s friendships with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but men* s relationships are marked by shared activities. " For the most part, Rubin says, interactions (交往) between men are controlled—a good fit with the social requirements of "manly behavior”"Even when a man is said to be a best friend," Rubin writes, "the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a woman’ s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn’ t unusual to hear a man say he didn’t know his friend’s marriage was in serious trouble until he appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa."71. What old Harold cannot understand or explain is the fact that .A. he is treated as an outsider rather than a husbandB. women have so much to shareC. women show little interest in ballgamesD. he finds his wife difficult to talk to72.

Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves.B. Women are more serious than men about marriage.C. Men often take sudden action to end their marriage.D. Women depend on others in making decisions.75.

That’s all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see the strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping.In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one. The only rest Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother’s having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? Nobody was sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.31. The main idea of this passage is that .A. large numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep32. The doctor came to visit Herpin, expecting .A. to cure him of his sleeplessnessB. to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC. to find out why some old people didn’t need any sleepD. to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping33. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was .A. his mother’s injury before he was bornB. that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC. that he hadn’t got a bedD. his magnificent physical condition34. Herpin’s condition could be regarded as .A. a common oneB. curableC. very healthyD. a rare onePassage BOn April 26, 1986, I was five years old. I can’t remember this day very well, but it turned out to be a disaster not only for our family, but also for thousands of people from many countries. It was a really nice, warm and sunny day.I was outside with my elder brother and my little 13-day-old sister, who was sleeping in a pram under a tree.Suddenly dark clouds appeared in the sky and a strong wind started to blow. Our mum told us to come into the house. While we were gathering our toys, she was trying to take the pram. The first drop of “rain” fell on my sister. It was only later that we found out the rain was radioactive water.At first we were not told anything about the accident. The government “didn’t want people to panic.”But they were afraid that the second reactor(反应堆)would blow up. Trains were made ready to send people away from our city.Since then the word “radiation”has come into and changed our life. Chernobyl deprived(剥夺) me of many joys of my childhood. Life went on as usual. I grew up and went to school. I studied very well. In 1998, I graduated from high school with honors and dreamed of entering a university. And here again Chernobyl interfered. Iwas diagnosed with a brain tumor(脑瘤). My parents came back from Minsk, where my sister had just undergone a brain tumor operation. I didn’t know how to tell mum that we had to go back to Minsk again for another operation straight after my sister’s. This was how Chernobyl poisoned my youth.35. People didn’t know the accident of Chernobyl at first, because .A. the government wanted to keep it secretB. the weather was too badC. the train took them awayD. nobody knew the truth36. Who got the same terrible illness as I did after the accident?A. My elder brother.B. My little sister.C. My mother.D. My father.37. What does “blow up” in the fourth paragraph mean?A. Fly.B. Close.C. Explode.D. Move.38. Why did the parents have to go back to Minsk again?A. Because my sister would have another operation.B. Because I would have an operation.C. Because Minsk was far from danger.D. Because I entered a university there.Passage COn December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was planning to take the bus home from work as usual. She had just finished working as a seamstress(女裁缝) at a department store and then walked to the bus stop. As she first boarded the bus, she noticed that the driver was the same man who had sent her off his bus years earlier because she would not go around to the back door after she was already on the bus. She decided to get on anyway and sit down, but she did not sit at the very front of the bus. She took a seat next to a black man in the first row that “colored” people were allowed to sit in. At the next stop, some white people got on the bus. After they filled up the white seats, one man was left standing. When the driver noticed him standing, he told Rosa and the others in her row to let the man have a seat. Three people stood up, but the driver saw that Rosa was still sitting there. He asked if she would stand up, and she refused. Then he told her he would have her arrested, and Rosa told him he could do that.A few minutes later, two policemen got on the bus. When the driver told them that Rosa would not stand up, the policemen walked over to her and asked her why she wouldn’t get up. Rosa said she didn’t think she should stand up and asked, “Why do you push us around?” One policeman answered,“I don’t know, but the law is the law, and you are under arrest.”As soon as he said that, Rosa stood up. Then one of the policemen picked up her purse while the other picked up her shopping bag, and the three left the bus. Finally, they took Rosa to the police station in the car.Rosa’s action that day started a citywide boycott(联合抵制) of the bus system by Blacks that lasted more than a year. This later resulted in the decision against segregation on city buses in the US.39. The driver told Rosa that he would have her arrested because .A. she refused to give her seat to a white manB. she was sitting in the row for white peopleC. she was not allowed to have a seat on the busD. she was black40. Where was Rosa Parks taken finally?A. The bus stop.B. The police station.C. The department store.D. The next bus.第Ⅱ卷(共45分)四、英汉互译(15*2=30分)41.

Reading comprehension. 20%AFilling in company application forms can become a boring and repetitive task . Yet any carelessness on an applicant's part can draw a negative reaction from readers .Each company or organization usually uses its own specially designed form that , although it generally asks for the same basic information , may vary in detail . Therefore the suggestions below apply mainly to the approach you should take rather than suggest what you should write .When visiting future employers , always carry your personal data record with you so that you can readily search for details such as dates , telephone numbers , and other useful information .Treat every application form as though it is the first one you are completing—write carefully and neatly .Use words that describe the responsibility and different aspects of each job you have held rather than list only the duties you performed . Particularly describe social activities that show your involvement in the community , or activities in which you held a teaching or coaching role .Pay particular attention of there is a section on the form that asks you to comment on how your education and past experience have especially prepared you for the position . Think this through very carefully before you write so that what you say shows a natural progression from past experience to the job you are applying for . If you can , and if they fit naturally , add a few words to demonstrate how the position fits your overall career plan.1. The first sentence of the passage means that ___.A. You may have to fill in a long application formB. the filling up of an application form takes much timeC. one may have to fill in many application forms before one gets a jobD. application forms should be filled carefully , with no misleading2.

When writing about the duties you have been engaged in , you should ___.A. put down the names of your colleaguesB. describe the nature of the dutiesC. relate them to other major dutiesD. describe what responsible positions you have held5. Which of the following would be the best TITLE of the passage ?A. Importance of Application FormsB. How to Fill in an Application FormC. Job and Its Application FormD. Nature of Application FormsBMan is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two—thirds of the world's population live within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive (=continue to live). Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many of man's needs.The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man's technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined.Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2000 the problems that prevent us from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.6. The major things that the sea offers man are ______.A. fish and oilB. minerals and oilC. warm temperature and ocean currentsD. the food, energy sources, and minerals7. The sea serves the needs of man because ______.A. in provides man with foodB. it offers oil to manC. it supplies man with mineralsD. all of the above8. We can conclude from this passage that ______.A. the sea resources have largely been used upB. the sea, in the broad sense, has not yet been developedC. the problems that prevent us from using the food, minerals, and energy sources ofthe sea have already been solved.D. by the year 2000 , the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources9. The underlined words Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably mean ______. A. the people in Asia B. African peopleC. European peopleD. American people10.

"It was seeing people with snake bites (伤口) that led me to this career," he said.In 1963, after his army service, Shu entered a medical school and later became a doctor of Chinese medicine. As part of his studies he had to work in the mountains. There he often heard of people who had their arms and legs cut off after a snake bite in order to save their lives."I was greatly upset by the story of an old farmer I met. It was a very hot afternoon.The old man was pulling grass in his fields when he felt a pain in his left hand. He at once realized he had been bitten by a poisonous snake. In no time he wrapped a cloth tightly around his arm to stop the poison spreading to his heart. Rushing home he shouted 'Bring me the knife!' Minutes later the man lost his arm forever.""The sad story touched me so much that I decided to devote myself to helping people bitten by snakes," Shu said.1.

Which of the following words can take the place of the word career in the first paragraph(段)?A. conclusionB. storyC. incidentD. jobBGrandma Moses is among the most famous twentieth-century painters of the United States, yet she did not start painting until she was in her late seventies. As she once said of herself:" I would never sit back in a rocking chair, waiting for someone to help me." No one could have had a more productive old age.She was born Anna Mary Robertson on a farm in New York State, one of five boys and five girls. At twelve she left home and was in domestic(家庭的) service until, at twenty—seven, she married Thomas Moses, the hired hand of one of her employers.

She had ten children , of whom five survived ; her husband died in 1927.Grandma Moses painted a little as a child and made embroidery(刺绣) pictures as a hobby, but only changed to oils in old age because her hands had become too stiff(硬的) to sew and she wanted to keep busy and pass the time.

Reading Comprehension (30 points)Directions:There are four reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneIn the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the “Lusitania”, which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1,500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300,000 or more. The ship lying on the sea-bed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about $ 1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.61. Divers today try to bring to the surface _______.A. gold and jewelsB. parts of shipsC. whole shipsD. all of the above62. Diver try to bring up metals because ________.they have been in the sea for a long timegold and jewels are not valuable thingssome kinds of metals are worth a lot of moneyit is easy to bring up metals63. The word “surface” in the passage means the ______.A. marketB. airC. top of a liquidD. sea64. J ohn Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the parts of the “Lusitania” for about _____.A. $12,000B. $300,000C. $1,200,000D. $1,800,00065. John Light bought the “Lusitania” _______.A. before 1915B. before it sankC. after it sankD. after they had brought up the propellersPassage TwoMan’s first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it. The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature—no living thing was ever created with wheels. How, then, did man come to invent the wheel? Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the carcass of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected, at their centers by a string stick. This would roll along just as the logs did, yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being and with them the first carts.66. The wheel is important because _______.A. it was man’s first real inventionB. all transportation depends on itC. every machine depends on itD. both B and C67. The wheel is called _______.A. simpleB. complicatedC. strangeD. unusual68. It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel because _______.A. it led to many other inventionsB. man had no use for it thenC. there were no wheels in natureD. all of the above69. The wheel was probably invented by ______.A. a group of early huntersB. the first men on earthC. a great prehistoric thinkerD. the man who made the first cart70. This selection says that the first wheel may have been a ______.A. round piece of stoneB. heavy logC. piece of metalD. sliceof logPassage ThreeEating in space is different from eating on earth. The food that astronauts carry with them does not look like the food you eat. Some food is carried in closed bags. It is cooked and frozen before the astronauts get it. All the water is removed from the food. In the spaceship the astronaut puts the water back. He “shoots” hot or cold water into the food bag with a special gun. He eats the food through a small hole in the bag.Other foods come in bite sizes. The astronaut puts a whole piece in his mouth at once. There an be no crambs. Crambs would float around the spaceship and get in the way. Meat and cake often come in bite-sized pieces. Astronauts can’t drink water from open cups. The water would float in drops in the air. The water is put in the special gun. The astronaut shoots the water into his mouth. Eating in space is not easy. Astronauts must learn to eat this way.71. Some space foods are carried in _______.A. water gunsB. lunch boxesC. closed bagsD. crumbs72. The story does not say this, but from what we have read, we can tell that ______.A. you get much hungrier in space than you doB. you can’t have water to drink in a spaceshipC. astronauts must learn many new and different thingsD. you can’t eat anything in a spaceship73. Why can’t astronauts drink water from cups?A. The water would come from the open cups.B. The water would spill all over their food.C. Crambs would float in the cups.D. The cups would float in the air.74. The main idea of the whole story is that _______.A. there is more food and water in space than on earthB. eating and drinking in space is a special problemC. astronauts can never eat or drink in a spaceshipD. there is no food or water in a spaceship75. Which of the following does the story lead you to believe?A. Food for astronauts must be made in a special way.B. All meat on earth comes in bite-sized pieces.C. Astronauts will only eat cakes made from crambs.D. Astronauts have to go hungry in a spaceship.Passage FourThe energy which the sun radiates goes in every direction, and only a minute part of it falls on the earth. Even so, it represents power of about 5,000,000 horsepower (马力) per square mile per day; the sun gives us as much energy every miunte as mankind utilizes in a year. At present, we use this energy indirectly, and it is our final source of power. Coal represents the chemical action of the sun on green plants thousands of years ago. Water power results from the rain formed by vapor which comes from the evaporation of water under the sunshine. Even windmills operate because of air currents set in motion by the different heating affects of the sun in different places. Some day, through chemistry or some type of solar engine, we shall harness this great source ofenergy more directly. Already a scientist has worked out an engine, surprisingly efficient, in which the sun’s rays are concentrated through mirrors on a tube of water to create steam.76. How much energy given off by the sun reaches the earth?A. 100% but indirectly.B. 5%.C. 50%.D. only a very tiny amount.77. The reason why all the solar energy falling on the earth can’t be utilized is that ______.A. only a very small part is availableB. the sun is too distant from the earthC. it takes thousands of years for this energy to be stored up in coal and oilD. our scientific knowledge is not sufficient78. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Even windmill’s action depends on the sun.B. The sun produces enormous energy for man to make use of.C. Some day man will be able to utilize 100% of the solar energy that gets to the earth.D. The sun produces different heating effects in different places.79. In order to support this argument, the writer gives the example that _______.A. a machine using solar energy efficiently has already been developedB. the sun is our final source of powerC. man uses only a tiny part of the sun’s energyD. the part of the sun’s energy we use is u sed indirectly80. This passage centers mainly on ________.A. harnessing energy through chemistryB. our last source of powerC. how water power is producedD. the amount of solar energy that can be utilized参考答案Ⅰ.

For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lu cky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61.

Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.A. pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea. It is list ed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in acave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66. The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave systemthe biggest underground lake in the worldlisted in the Guinness Book of World Recordsthe largest body of water in Tennessee67.
