He rented a cottage in the country, although he rarely spent much time there. The cottage, however, had no comfortable furniture in it, many of the windows were broken and the roof leaked, making the whole house damp.On our first evening, we sat around the fire after supper listening to the stories our uncle had had to tell of his many adventures in distant countries. I was so tired after the long train journey that I would have preferred to go to bed, but I could not bear to miss any of my uncle’s exciting tales.He was just in the middle of describing a rather terrifying experience he had, when there was a loud crash from the bedroom above, the one where my brother and I were going to sleep.“It sounds as if the roof has fallen in!” shouted my uncle, with a loud laugh.When we got to the top of the stairs and opened the bedroom door, a strange sight met oureyes. A large part of the ceiling had collapsed (), falling right on to the pillow of my bed. I was glad that I had stayed up late to listen to my uncle’s stories, otherwise I should certainly have been seriously injured, perhaps killed.That nigh we all slept on the floor of the sitting room downstairs not wishing to risk our lives by sleeping under a roof which might at any moment collapse on our heads. We left for London the very next morning and my uncle gave up his cottage in the country. This was not the kind of adventure he cared for, either!31. What does the writer say about his uncle during the war?A、He made a lot of money.B、He enjoyed many of his adventures.C、He had a lot of adventures.D、He fought as a soldier.32. When did the story most likely happen?A、In the spring.B、In the summer.C、In the fall.D、In the winter.33. Why did the writer wish to go to bed at first?A、He thought his uncle’s stories would be boring.B、He was really tired from the long journey.C、He had the habit of going to bed early.D、His uncle’s stories made him sleepy.34. Why was the writer glad after the accident?A、He realized he would have a good sleep.B、He had heard many exciting stories.C、He had a narrow escape from death.D、He had experienced a great adventure.35. What did the writer’s uncle most likely do with the cottage after the accident?A、He bought it and had it repaired.B、He gave it to his neighbors.C、He sold it to others.D、He returned it to the landlord.Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40are based on the following passage:Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to risks of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the ship owner knows that his vessel may be lost at sea; the father knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family the poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire, nor every vessel lost at sea. If these persons each put a small sum into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer loss. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contributions are known as “insured” and those who control the pool of contributions as “insurer”.Not all risks lend themselves to being covered by insurance. Broadly speaking, the ordinary risks of business cannot be covered. The risk that buyers will not buy goods at the prices offered is not a kind that can be estimated in numbers and risks can only be insured against if they can be estimated.The legal basis of all insurance is the “policy”. This is a printed form of contract on thick paper of the best quality. It states that in return for regular payment by the insured of a named sum of money, called the “premium”, which is usually paid every year, the insurer will pay a sum of money for loss, if the risk or event insured against actually happens.36. Why does the writer mention the father in the passage?A、The writer uses the father as an example to illustrate his point.B、The writer believes the father knows better than the mother.C、The writer wants to persuade the father to buy insurance.D、The writer wishes to set an example for fathers.37. Which of the following can be covered by insurance?A、All risks of business.B、All houses damaged by fire.C、Goods with clearly marked prices.D、Things whose values can be estimated.38. What do insurers firmly believe?A、People don’t like to spend their money.B、No one can avoid any risks.C、Almost all people trust insurance.D、Most people like to help others.39. What does “premium” (Para.3)most probably mean in the passage?A、The money paid by the insured.B、A printed form of contract.C、The money paid for the loss.D、The contributions of insurers.40. What is the main idea of the passage?A、Insurance is a way of sharing risks among people.B、Insurance has a solid legal basis.C、Only a few people suffer loss in their daily life.D、Insurance is not worth buying.Passage ThreeQuestions 41 to 46 are based on the following passage:Kate, a student in 8th grade, asked lots of questions in math class—until the teacher told her to stop. “He said I was confusing the other kids with my questions,” she recalls. “When boys asked questions, he took them a lot more seriously.”You might have thought that such obvious forms of discrimination (歧视)had ended by now. But Esther Green glass, a psychology professor at York University in Toronto, says many recent studies have found that girls may still be faced with mixed messages about self-confidence and success, which can lower their self-esteem and discourage them from achieving their potential.The problem worsens at about age 11 or 12, when girls start hitting puberty (青春期)and discovering boys. Many girls’ grades drop, and so does their self-esteem. “Girls get the message that, if you’re going to be popular, you can’t be too smart because the boys won’t like you,” says Green glass, who has written extensively on sex roles and discrimination.Often, girls also sense that boys are considered more capable. In studies in the United States, researchers found that when teachers asked questions, they almost always made eye con?tact with boys, unless they had attended courses raising their level of awareness. Adding to the problem, according to Green glass, is the lack of female role models in old textbooks still found in many Canadian schools.How are girls’ attitudes affected? Studies have shown that boys usually attribute their success to their superior ability, while girls attribute their own success to luck. When boys fail at a task, they tend to blame it on external factors; when girls fail, they blame their own lack of ability. Boys are more likely to try a second time to succeed.41. The first paragraph intends to tell us that _______.A、girls usually ask more questions than boys in classB、girls often confuse teachers with many questionsC、teachers tend to give much more attention to boysD、teachers believe that boys ask more serious questions42. Findings by Professor Esther Greenglass indicate that _______.A、sex discrimination in schools has disappeared in CanadaB、Canadian school girls are more self-confident than boysC、school girls in Canada are confused about their rolesD、in Canada girls and boys achieve equal success at school43. Researchers in the United States found that when teachers asked questions, _______.A、they would first turned to boys for answersB、they wanted to raise the awareness of boysC、boys responded to them ImmediatelyD、girls avoided eye contact with teachers44. We can learn from the passage that girls' lack of self-confidence has led to _______.A、their misjudgment of their own success and failureB、boys’ misunderstanding of their superiorityC、their inability to achieve academic successD、boys’ blaming external factors for their failu res45. What is the best title of the passage?A、Male and Female Role Models.B、Puberty and Sex Difference.C、Girls, Boys, and Success.D、Sex Roles and Discrimination.Part III Fill in the blanks (选择填空)((每小题1分,共10分))46. We should do something _______ just talking about it.47. After hard work, we usually ______ by going to the movies at the weekend.48. The population of the town ______ dramatically in the first half of the country.49. Things got so bad ________ that he decided to go on a diet.50.

For each question there are four sug gested answers marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the best answe r and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 26-30 are based on Passage One:Go ahead, laugh. It’s strong medicine, r esearchers are learning. Even the physical act is good for you, says William Fry, professor at Stanford University and pioneer in laughter research. It increases b lood flow and contracts abdominal muscles. But the benefits go beyond a workout. The most ast onishing evidence of laughter’s power comes from a 1997 study of 48 heart-attack patients. Half-watched comedy sh ows for 30 minutes every day; the rest served as controls. After a ye ar, ten patients in the control group had suffered repeat heart attac ks, compared with only two in the group that watched the shows.Can a good laugh help patients get well? In an experiment at the Univ ersity of California at Los Angeles, called Rx Laughter, scientists p lan to test the effect of laughter in children with serious illnesses, including cancer. Early results suggest that funny videos help kids handle uncomfortable or painful procedures.Justin Ybarra, 13, already knows that. He was in considerable pain wh en he woke up from surgery --- until Bill Marx, a volunteer for Rx La ughter, appeared at his bedside. Marx told jokes, made faces and danc ing around the hospital room. “Having something to laugh at took my mind off the pain,” says Justin. “When you’re laughing, you can’t help but feel better.”26. The author implies that ________.A) a good laugh helps one recoverB) funny videos help patients get wellC) children are fond of jokes and funny moviesD) even there’s nothing to laugh at, the act of laughing benefits27. RX Laughter is the name of ________.A) a kind of laughter B) a scientific labC) an experiment D) a laughter research center28. Laughter benefits the patients because ________.A) it makes them stronger B) it can cure their illnessesC) it help them recover more quickly D) it controls their blood flo w29. Justin said laughter could make him ________.A) exercise his abdominal muscle B) have a better appetiteC) excited and happy D) forget the pain from the surgery30. The main idea of the passage is ________.A) researchers are doing experiments on laughterB) laughing is good medicine for the patientsC) patients usually prefer comedies to tragediesD) children all like clowns very muchQuestions 31-35 are based on Passage Two:Under proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected from a hil lside or other such obstruction. Sound travels at the rate of about o ne fifth of a mile per second. If the hill is eleven hundred feet awa y, it takes two seconds for the sound to travel to the hill and back. Thus, by timing the interval between a sound and its reflection (the echo), you can estimate the distance to an obstruction.During World War II the British used a practical application of this principle to detect German planes on their way to bomb London long be fore the enemy was near the target. They used radio waves instead of sound waves, since radio waves can penetrate fog and clouds. The outn umbered Royal Air Force (RAF) always seemed to the puzzled Germans to be lying in wait at the right time and never to be surprised. It was radio echoes more than anything else that won the battle of Britain. Since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the RAF planes and the distance to send them (Their range of light, in other words), the device was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials the word radar (雷达) was coined.31. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the ___ _____.A) height of the hill B) speed of soundC) distance to the hill D) intensity of sound32. The estimate is based on the ________.A) direction of the hill B) accepted speed of soundC) interval between sound and echo D) both B and C33. Practical application of this principle resulted in ________.A) new electronic instruments for planesB) a radio directing and ranging deviceC) new radio sets for RAF bomberD) an electronic detecting device34. Radar enabled the English to ________.A) detect German planes on their way to LondonB) direct the outnumbered RAF planes effectivelyC) confuse German bomber pilotD) both A and B35. The British used radio waves because they ________.A) were more exact than sound waves B) could not be detectedC) could penetrate fog and clouds D) were easier to use than sound wavesQuestions 36-40 are based on Passage Three:Some psychologists maintain that mental acts such as thinking are not performed in the brain alone, but that one’s muscles also parti cipate. It may be said that we think with our muscles in somewhat the same way that we listen to music with our bodies.You surely are not surprised to be told that you usually listen to mu sic not only with your ears but with your whole body. Few people can listen to music that is more or less familiar without moving their bo dy or, more specifically, some part of their body. Often when one lis tens to a symphonic (交响乐) concert on the radio, he is tempted to d irect the orchestra even though he knows there is a competent conduct or on the job.Strange as this behavior may be, there is a very good reason for it. One cannot derive all possible enjoyment from music unless he partici pates, so to speak, in its performance. The listener “feels” himsel f into the music with more or less pronounced motions of his body. The muscles of the body actually participate in the mental process ofthinking in the same way, but this participation is less obvious bec ause it is less pronounced.36. Some psychologists maintain that thinking is ________.A) not a mental processB) more of a physical process than a mental actionC) a process that involves our entire bodiesD) a process that involves the muscles as well as the brain37. The process of thinking and that of listening are similar in that ________.A) both are mental actsB) muscles participate in both processesC) both processes are performed by the entire bodyD) we derive equal enjoyment from them38. The pronounced body motions are a listener’s way of ________.A) “feeling” the musicB) participating in the performanceC) deriving enjoyment from the musicD) all of the above39. Body movements are necessary in order for the listener to _______ _.A) hear the music B) appreciate the musicC) enjoy the music fully D) completely understand the music40. According to selection, muscle participation in the process of th inking is ________.A) deliberate B) obvious C) not readily apparent D) very pronounced Questions 41-45 are based on Passage Four:Chess must be one of the oldest games in the world. An Arab trave ler in India in the year 900 wrote that it was played “long, long ag o”. Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played eve rywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name “chess” is intere sting. When one player is attacking the other’s king, he says, in En glish, “check”. When the king has been caught and cannot move anywh ere, he says “check mate”. These words come from Persian. “Shah ma t” means “the king is dead”. That is when the game is over, and on e player has won.Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could on ly move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the b oard. It would be interesting to know why this has happened! Chess ta kes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You d on’t have to be a champion in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Amer icans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the c hess masters are able to play many people at the same time. The recor d was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must make chess the slowest game in the world.41. Which of the following is known to be TRUE?A) Chess is an old Indian traveling game.B) Chess is the oldest game in the world.C) Chess was played in Japan and Europe before 1400.D) Chess was played in India long before 900.42. One player has won the game when ________.A) he attacks the other player’s kingB) he says some Persian wordsC) the other player’s king can not move anywhereD) he says “check” to the oth er player43. Which of the following will you hear when one player has won the game?A) “Shah mat”. B) “Check”. C) “The king is dead”. D) “Check mate”.44. Which of the following is NOT correct?A) All kinds of people can play chess.B) Only two people sitting at the same table can play chess.C) Some people write to each other while playing chess.D) The Russians lost the game played by radio.45. According to the old rules of the game, ________.A) the queen was the strongest piece on the boardB) the king had to be attacked all the timeC) the queen could move no more than one square at a timeD) the king could not move anywherePart III Vocabulary and Structure (15 points 1×0.5)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

For each question there are suggested answersChoose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter. Passage OneIn the United States, teaching is very important. If teachers do not teach well, students complain. If many students do not understand, people think that the teacher does not do a good job. The teacher has big responsibility to make sure students understand. In a sense, students are consumers and the teacher is offering services. Students have the right to evaluate their teachers, and they usually do so at the endof each course. That evaluation includes lots of aspects of teaching, such as explanation,preparation, using good examples, answering questions, and organization of classes. Students are supposed to read required textbooks and recommended books before classes. Without reading them, they will find it very difficult to understand the class. Basic courses on doing research and writing papers are taught at the beginning of theprogram. They teach things very concretely(具体地) and clearly. Students areexpectedto apply what they have learned to their studies.Classes are usually divided into lectures and seminars. There are some lecture classes, where the teacher just gives a lecture, and students ask questions at the end. Most graduate level classes are lectures and discussions. Participating in discussionsisvery important. Higher level classes involve very little lecturing. They emphasize discussion and presentation by the students.1.( )According to the passage, good teachers should ___________.A.try to please their students B.treat their students as consumers7卷大学英语试题B make sure their students understand understand their students well D..C)What are students expected to do before attending a class?2.(Understand the textbooks well.

Travel information can be seen everywhere on the Internet and there are so many vacation packages waiting for you tochoose. All this can make travel planning confusing and time consuming. To make a choice, tourists and business people often turn to travel agents, who provide them withthe best possible travel arrangements.In general, travel agents give advice on places you should go to, and make arrangements for transportation, hotel accommodations, car rental, sightseeing, and entertainment. They may also tell you about weather conditions, restaurants, and touristsattractions. For international travel, agents also make sure that you have the necessary papers such as passports and visas, and tell you how to go through the customs. They sometimes provide information on money exchange rates.Travel agents will search all kinds of sources for information on departure and arrival times, fares, hotel ratings and accommodations. They may visit hotels and7卷大学英语试题B restaurants to know more. In this way they will be able to provide their customers withmore valuable advice on travel.Travel agents also promote their services, using phones, direct mail and the Internet. They arrange advertising displays for some social groups, and suggest company trips tobusiness managers. Travel agents no longer receive commission from domestic airline,and they face more and more competition from the Internet for low cost fares. In ordersto find a small business in the Market, many travel agents now specialize in travel to certain regions or for certain groups of people, such as honeymooners, grandparents, etc.)This passage mainly tells us ______. 6.

And am I getting the right kind?Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis, and this has something to do with their diet— the food they take in. A person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed, with the possible exception of D.The problem is that there are many people who don’t choose foods wisely, don’t get enough variety, and don’t eat the basic fo ods they need to get their vitamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not be stored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them, It is even harmful to put too much of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in.What foods supply what vitamins? Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1, which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. VitaminB2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps boned and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certain fruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.21. Our body needs _________ for life and health.A. small amounts of each vitaminB. extra vitaminsC. all vitamins except vitamin DD. large amounts of certain vitamins22. Vitamin A is needed by _________ and can be found in _________.A. bones, porkB. nervous system, milkC. eyes, green vegetablesD. teeth, meats23. Vitamin B1 is very important to_________.A. the digestive systemB. bonesC. liverD. skin24. What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need?A. They will do great harm to our body.B. We get all the vitamins needed.C. Our body will function moreD. Our body simply gets rid of them.properly.25. The passage has probably been taken from_________.A. a sports magazineB. a journal of medical scienceC. an aged magazineD. a youth journalPassage TwoIdeal conditions for flying a kite are a large open space like field or a beach, and a steady wind, blowing from one direction, without any sudden gusts. Avoid spots such as clearings or river banks, where the wind is likely to change suddenly, Small kites will be much easier to launch in a gentle wind, and may well tear if the wind is too strong. Big kites on the other hand, will only take off in a reasonably strong wind. Stand with your back to the wind and un wind several meters of line, holding the kite at arm’s length and pulling on the line gently. With a larger kite, ask friend to help. He should stand a little way off, the kite held out in front of him and let go when you give the signal. A kite should never be thrown into the air, but simply released when the wind is strong enough to lift it.Be very careful how you handle your kite and try to avoid any sudden movement once it is in the air. If a particularly violent gust of wind causes it to lose height, unwind a little of the line. Never pull it along on the ground once it has come down, or you will tear it.If you want to bring kite down in a hurry, make the line fast or give it to someone to hold, put your arm over the line and run towards the kite. Always take a pair of scissors, some glue and two or three strips of crepe paper with you for on-the-spot repairs.Never fly a kite near a railway line or a busy road. If the kite comes down suddenly in front of a car, it may cause and accident. Never fly a kite in stormy weather because it could act as a lightning conductor (with you as the earth)!26. Where do people often fly kites?A. In a large open field with sudden gusts.B. In a large open area with a strong wind.C. In a large open space with a steady wind blowing fro one direction.D. At a beach with a gentle wind.27. The passage is mainly about_________.A. the significance of flying a kiteB. the place selection and ways of flying akiteC. some warnings to flying a kiteD. both B and C.28. The underlined word “clearings” in the first paragraph probably means_________.A. open spacesB. large playing-groundsC. places for clearing thingsD. areas which are very clear29. According to the passage, how should we bring a kite down in a hurry?A. Pull the line gently and run towards the kite.B. Fix the line to a place, put the arm over the line and run towards the kite.C. Give the kite to someone to hold, put the arm over the line and run towards the kite.D. Pull the kite and wind the line fast.30. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Most people like to fly kites.B. Flying a kite near a railway line is dangerous.C. It is very difficult to find and ideal space for flying a kite.D. There are many ways in which people fly their kites.Passage ThreeMany people think that when they become rich and successful, happiness will naturally follow. Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth. The world is full of very rich people who are as miserable as if they ere living in hell. We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs. Quite clearly, money is not the only answer to all problems.Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness. Lottery winnings do not bring happiness. Gambling winnings do not bring happiness. To my mind, the secret to happiness lies in your successful work, in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in luck or dishonest means, you will know that it is ill-gamed money. If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others, your wealth will not be happy with it. You will think you are a base person.Long-term happiness is based on honesty, productive work, contribution, and self-esteem. Happiness is not an end: It is a process. It is a continuous process of honest, productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful, worthy person. As Dr. Wayne wrote, “Ther e is no way to happiness. Happiness is the way.” There is no use saying “Someday when I achieve these goals, when I get a car, build a house and own my own business, then I will be really happy.” Life just does not work that way. If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on the external circumstances of life to make you happy, you will always feel unfulfilled. There will always be something missing.31. The best title for this passage is______.A. What is HappinessB. HappinessC. Wealth and HappinessD. Process of Happiness32. According to this passage, which of the following statement is right?A. The richer you’re, the happier you’re.B. Wealth means happiness.C. Movie stars are happy.D. Rich people are not always happy.33. In the second paragraph, the word “means” is equal to ______. .A. waysB. worksC. placesD. hearts34. Long-term happiness is based on the following except______.A. self-esteemB. contributionC. productive workD. lottery winnings35. According to the passage, a person feels happy when he______.A. gets a carB. builds a houseC. owns his own businessD. feels that he is a useful, worthy personPassage FourUnder normal conditions, the act of communication requires the presence of at leasttwo persons: one who sends and one who receives the communication. In order to communicate thoughts and feelings, there must be a conventional system of signs orsymbols that mean the same to the sender and the receiver.The means of communication are too numerous and varied for systematic classification; therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving communication. Reception of communication is achieved by our senses. Sight, hearing, and touching seem to play themost important roles. Smell and taste play very limited roles, for they cannot receive intellectual expression from fully developed systems of sings and symbols.Examples of visual communication are gesture and imitation. Although both frequently accompany speech, there are systems that rely solely on sight, such as those used by deafand dumb persons. Another means of communicating visually is by signals of fire, smoke,flags, or flashing light. Feelings may be simply communicated by touch, such as by handshaking or backslapping, although a highly developed system of hand-stroking hasenabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to communicate intelligently. Whistling to someone, applauding in a theater, and other forms of communication by sound rely upon the ear as areceiver. The most fully developed form of auditory communication is, of course, thespoken language.The means of communication mentioned so far have two features in common: they lastonly a short time, and the persons involved must be relatively close to each other. Therefore,all are restricted in time and space.36. Reception of communication ___________A. is more important than sending messagesB. depends on two personsC. involves use of the sensesD. play only limited roles37. Applauding is specifically mentioned as an example of __________.A. communication by soundB. gesture and imitationC. communication by sending a messageD. communication between the listener and speaker38. Persons who cannot see, hear, or speak are able to communicate through_________.A. gesturingB. handshakingC. smellingD. hand-stroking39. The author specifically mentions that speech is ____________ .A. often used when other means are impossibleB. necessary for normal communicationC. the only highly developed system of communicationD. the most developed form of communication based on hearing40. According to the passage means of communication __________.A. can develop quickly if there is enough time and space/B. all have the same featuresC. have some limitations even if they are fully developedD. depend on the persons involvedPart III Vocabulary and Structure (25 points)Section ADirections: There are 15 incomplete sentences in this part.

(阅读理解题)Passage 1Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Ours is a big world, and full of many different people. People with many varying (不同的) points of view are often running up against others who have different opinions. Those of us who smoke are just one group of many. Recently, the activism (采取行动) of non-smokers has reminded us of the need to be considerate (体谅的) of others when we smoke in public.But, please! Enough is enough! We should like to remind non-smokers that being polite is a two-way street. If you politely request thatsomeone not smoke you are more likely to receive an agreeable response than if you give an ugly look and say something unkind. If you speak directly to someone, you are more likely to get what you want than if you complain to the management.Many of us have been smoking for so long that we sometimes forget that others are not used to the smell of burning tobacco. We' re human, and like everyone else, we occasionally offend unknowingly. But most of us are open to friendly suggestions and comments, and quite willing to change our behavior to accommodate others.Smokers are people, too. We laugh and cry. We have hopes, dreams, and aspirations. We have children, mothers, and pets. We eat our hamburgers with everything on them and give respect to the flag at Fourth of July picnics. We hope you'll remember that the next time a smoker light up in public.(1). (单选题) The purpose of the first paragraph is __( )____.(本题3.0分)A、 to inform the reader of the bigness of the worldB、to declare that the author belongs to the group of smokersC、to tell non-smokers that smokers will be considerateD、to reveal the author's reason for writing this essay学生答案: D标准答案:D解析:得分: 3(2). (单选题) What does the second sentence in the second paragraph imply?

(单选题) According to the author, how can you get an agreeable response from smokers if you don't feel like someone smoking beside you? ( )(本题3.0分)A、Complain to his boss.B、Tell him directly that you hate smokers.C、Keep from complaining but do something to suggest your feelings.D、Tell him politely that you are not used to smoke.学生答案: D标准答案:D解析:得分: 3(4). (单选题)According to the author, why do some smokers smoke in public? ( ) (本题3.0分)A、 Because they cannot stop from smoking.B、Because they forget that others do not like the smell cigarettes.C、Because they are humans and they cannot avoid offending people.D、Because there is no law against it.学生答案: B标准答案:B解析:得分: 3(5). (单选题)How does the author try to persuade the reader? ( )(本题3.0分)A、He uses reasons.B、 He appeals to people's feelings.C、He gives examples in his argument.D、 He simply states his opinion.学生答案: B标准答案:B解析:得分: 337. (阅读理解题)Passage 2Nature has supplied every animal except man with some covering for his body such as fur, feathers, hair, seals, shells or a thick hide. But man has nothing but a thin skin. If someone were to ask us, "Why did human beings start to cover their bodies with clothes?" most of us would answer, "To keep themselves warm, of course."It is only when we begin to think about it a little that we realize that clothes are worn for a great many reasons that have nothing to do with our need for warmth at all. For instance, we wear clothes to some extent in order to decorate ourselves -- to make ourselves, if possible, look more graceful or dignified (高贵的) than we are.Clothes of a special kind are often worn to show that the wearer has authority or power. The individual wearing them is treated with respect because he occupies a certain office. The judge in the court, for instance, might look a very ordinary and unimpressive figure without his wig (假发) and gown. Clothes are an essential part of all ceremonial occasions, whether it is connected with religion, the law, parliament, royalty, the fighting forces, or the state.Sometimes, even in civilized countries, people wear some article of clothing, or some jewel, because they believe that it will bring them luck or protect them from evil or illness, or because it is connected with their beliefs.None of these reasons for wearing clothes — to decorate ourselves, to show our position in the world, for ceremonial purposes, for "luck", to give ourselves dignity and authority — have anything to do with our need for warmth and protection from the weather.(1).

(单选题)According to the passage, which statement is true? ( )(本题3.0分)A、Animals other than humans don’t wear clothes to keep warm.B、Humans wear clothes only to keep warm.C、 Humans also have hair to keep themselves warm.D、Animals all rely on their hair and feather to keep warm.学生答案: A标准答案:A解析:得分: 3(5).

in total)Direction:There are 4passages in this part.Each passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B)C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and write down the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet .Passage OneQuestions 21to 25are based on the following passage:Unless we spend money to spot and prevent asteroids (小行星)now,one might crash into Earth and destroy life as we know it,say some scientists.Asteroids are bigger versions of the meteoroids (流星)that race across the night sky.Most orbit the sun far from Earth and don’t threaten us.But there are also thousands of asteroids whose orbits put them on a collision course with Earth.Buy $50million worth of new telescopes right now.Then spend $10million a year for the next 25years to locate most of the space rocks.By the time we spot a fatal one,the scientists say,we’ll have a way to change its course.Some scientists favor pushing asteroids off course with nuclear weapons.But the cost wouldn’t be cheap.Is it worth it?Two things experts consider when judging any risk are:1)How likely the event is;and 2)How bad the consequences if the event occurs.Experts think an asteroid big enough to destroy lots of life might strike Earth once every 500,000years.Sounds pretty rare-but if one did fall,it would be the end of the world.“If we don’t take care of these big asteroids,they’ll take care of us,”says one scientist.“It’s that simple.”The cure,though,might be worse than the disease.Do we really want fleets of nuclear weapons sitting around on Earth?“The world has less to fear from doomsday (毁灭性的)rocks than from a great nuclear fleet set against them,”said a New York Times article.21.What does the passage say about asteroids and meteoroids?A)They are heavenly bodies different in composition.B)They are heavenly bodies similar in nature.C)There are more asteroids than meteoroids.D)Asteroids are more mysterious than meteoroids.22.What do scientists say about the collision of an asteroid with Earth?A)It is very unlikely but the danger exists.B)Such a collision might occur once every 25years.C)Collisions of smaller asteroids with Earth occur more often than expected.D)It’s still too early to say whether such a collision might occur.23.What do people think of the suggestion of using nuclear weapons to alter the courses of asteroids?A)It sounds practical but it may not solve the problem.B)It may create more problems than it might solve.C)It is a waste of money because a collision of asteroids with Earth is very unlikely.D)Further research should be done before it is proved applicable.45624.We can conclude from the passage that ______________.A)while pushing asteroids off course nuclear weapons would destroy the worldB)asteroids racing across the night sky are likely to hit Earth in the near futureC)the worry about asteroids can be left to future generations since it is unlikely to happen in our lifetimeD)workable solutions still have to be found to prevent a collision of asteroids with Earth25.Which of the following best describes the author’s tone in this passage?A)Optimistic.B)Critical.C)Objective.D)Arbitrary.Passage TwoQuestions 26to 30are based on the following passage:Believe it or not,optical illusion (错觉)can cut highway crashes.Japan is a case in point.It has reduced automobile crashes on some roads by nearly 75percent using a simple optical illusion.Bent stripes,called chevrons (人字形),painted on the roads make drivers think that they are driving faster than they really are,and thus drivers slow down.Now the American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety in Washington D.C.is planning to repeat Japan’s success.Starting next year,the foundation will paint chevrons and other patterns of stripes on selected roads around the country to test how well the patterns reduce highway crashes.Excessive speed plays a major role in as much as one fifth of all fatal traffic accidents,according to the foundation.To help reduce those accidents,the foundation will conduct its tests in areas where speed-related hazards are the greatest-curves,exit slopes,traffic circles,and bridges.Some studies suggest that straight,horizontal bars painted across roads can initially cut the average speed of drivers in half.However,traffic often returns to full speed within months as drivers become used to seeing the painted bars.Chevrons,scientists say,not only give drivers the impression that they are driving faster than they really are but also make a lane appear to be narrower.The result is a longer lasting reduction in highway sped and the number of traffic accidents.26.The passage mainly discusses __________.A)a new way of highway speed control B)a new pattern for painting highways C)a new approach to training drivers D)a new type of optical illusion27.On roads painted with chevrons,drivers tend to feel that __________.A)they should avoid speed-related hazards B)they are driving in the wrong lane C)they should slow down their speedC l a s s N a m eS I C n u m b e r E x a m T i m e E x a m R o o m装订线D)they are approaching the speed limit28.The advantage of chevrons over straight,horizontal bars is that the former ___________.A)can keep drivers awakeB)can cut road accidents in halfC)will have a longer effect on drivers D)will look more attractive29.The American Automobile Association Foundation for Traffic Safety plans to __________.A)try out the Japanese method in certain areas B)change the road signs across the countryC)replace straight,horizontal bars with chevrons D)repeat the Japanese road patterns30.What does the author say about straight,horizontal bars painted across roads?A)They are falling out of use in the United StatesB)They tend to be ignored by drivers in a short period of time.C)They are applicable only on broad roads.D)They cannot be applied successfully to traffic circles.Passage ThreeQuestions 31to 35are based on the following passage:Amtrak (美国铁路客运公司)was experiencing a downswing in rider ship(客运量)along the lines comprising its rail system.Of major concern to Amtrak and its advertising agency DDB Needham,were the long-distance western routes where ridership had been declining significantly.]At one time,trains were the only practical way to cross the vast areas of the west.Trains were fast,very luxurious,and quite convenient compared to other forms of transportation existing at the time.However,times change and the automobile became America’s standard of convenience.Also,air travel had easily established itself as the fastest method of traveling great distances.Therefore,the task for DDB Needham was to encourage consumers to consider other aspects of train travel in order to change their attitudes and increase the likelihood that trains would be considered for travel in the west.Two portions of the total market were targeted:1)anxious fliers-thoseconcerned with safety,relaxation,and cleanliness and 2)travel-lovers-those viewing themselves as relaxed,casual,and interested in the travel experience as part of their vacation.The agency then developed a campaign that focused on travel experiences such as freedom,escape,relaxation,and enjoyment of the great western outdoors.It stressed experiences gained by using the trains and portrayed western train trips as wonderful adventures.Advertisements showed pictures of the beautiful scenery that could be enjoyed along some of the more famous western routes and emphasized the romantic names of some of these trains (Empire Builder,etc.).These ads were strategically placed among family-oriented TV shows and programs involving nature and America in order to most effectively reach target audiences.Results were impressive.The Empire Builder,which was focused on in one ad,enjoyed a 15percent increase in profits on its Chicago to Seattle route.31.What’s the author’s purpose in writing this passage?A)To show the inability of trains to compete with planes with respect to speed and convenience.B)To stress the influence of the automobile on America’s standard of convenience.C)To emphasize the function of travel agencies in market promotion.D)To illustrate the important role of persuasive communication in changing consumer attitudes.32.It can be inferred from the passage that the drop in Amtrak ridership was due to the fact that ________.A)trains were not suitable for short distance passenger transportationB)trains were not the fastest and most convenient form of transportationC)trains were not as fast and convenient as they used to be D)trains could not compete with planes in terms of luxury and convenience33.To encourage consumers to travel by train,DDB Needham emphasized __________.C l a s s N a m eS I C n u m b e rE x a m T i m eE x a m R o o m装订线A)the freedom and convenience provided on trains B)the practical aspects of train travel C)the adventurous aspects of train trips D)the safety and cleanliness of train trips34.The train ads were placed among family-oriented TV programs involving nature and America because ____________.A)they could focus on meaningful travel experiencesB)they could increase the effectiveness of the TV programs C)their profits could be increased by some 15percentD)most travel-lovers and nervous fliers were believed to be among the audiences35.According to the passage,the Empire Builder enjoyed an increase in ridership and profits because ___________.A)the attractiveness of its name and route was effectively advertised B)it provided an exciting travel exper5ienceC)its passengers could enjoy the great western outdoorsD)it was widely advertised in newspapers and magazines in Chicago and SeattlePassage FourQuestions 36to 40are based on the following passage :Why does cram go bad faster than butter?Some researchers think they have the answer,and it comes down to the structure of the food,not its chemical composition-a finding that could help rid some processed foods of chemical preservatives.Cream and butter contain pretty much the same substances,so why cream should sour much faster has been a mystery.Both are emulsions-tiny globules (小球体)of one liquid evenly distributed throughout another.The difference lies in what’s in the globules and what’s in the surrounding liquid,says Brocklehurst,who led the investigation.In cream,fatty globules drift about in a sea of water.In butter,globules of a watery solution are locked away in a sea of fat.The bacteria which make the food go bad prefer to live in the watery regions of the mixture.“This means that in cream,the bacteria are free to grow throughout the mixture,”he says.When the situation is reversed,the bacteria are locked away in compartments (隔仓室)buried deep in the sea of fat.Trapped in this way,individual colonies cannot spread and rapidly run out of nutrients (养料).They also slowly poison themselves with their waste products.“In butter,you get a self-limiting system which stops the bacteria growing,”says Brocklehurst.The researchers are already working with food companies keen to see if their products can be made resistant to bacterial attack through alterations to the food’s structure.Brocklehurst believes it will be possible to make the emulsions used in salad cream,for instance,more like that in butter.The key will be to do this while keeping the salad cream liquid and not turning it into a solid lump.36.The significance of Brocklehurst’s research is that ____________.A)it suggested a way to keep some foods fresh without preservativesB)it discovered tiny globules in both cream and butterC)it revealed the secret of how bacteria multiply in cream and butterD)it found that cream and butter share the same chemical composition37.According to the researchers,cream sours fast than butter because bacteria _________.A)are more evenly distributed in creamB)multiply more easily in cream than in butter C)live on less fat in cream than in butter D)produce less waste in cream than in butter38.According to Brocklehurst,we can keep cream fresh by ___________.A)removing its fat B)killing the bacteriaC)reducing its water content D)altering its structure39.The word “colonies”(Line 2,Para.4)refers to __________.A)tiny globules B)watery regionsC)bacteria communities D)little compartmentsmercial application of the research finding will beC l a s s N a m eS I C n u m b e r E x a m T i m e E x a m R o o m 装订线possible if salad cream can be made resistant to bacterial attack _____________.A)by varying its chemical composition B)by turning it into a solid lumpC)while keeping its structure unchanged D)while retaining its liquid

Reading Comprehension(30 points)Directions: There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C,and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter.Passage OneIn the United States, teaching is very important. If teachers do not teach well, students complain. If many students do not understand, people think that the teacher does not do a good job. The teacher has big responsibility to make sure students understand. In a sense, students are consumers and the teacher is offering services.Students have the right to evaluate their teachers, and they usually do so at the end of each course. That evaluation includes lots of aspects of teaching, such as explanation, preparation, using good examples, answering questions, and organization of classes.Students are supposed to read required textbooks and recommended books before classes. Without reading them, they will find it very difficult to understand the class. Basic courses on doing research and writing papers are taught at the beginning of the program. They teach things very concretely(具体地) and clearly. Students are expected to apply what they have learned to their studies.Classes are usually divided into lectures and seminars. There are some lecture classes, where the teacher just gives a lecture, and students ask questions at the end. Most graduate level classes are lectures and discussions. Participating in discussions is very important. Higher level classes involve very little lecturing. They emphasize discussion and presentation by the students.1.( )According to the passage, good teachers should ___________.A.try to please their students B.treat their students as consumersC.understand their students well D.make sure their students understand2.( )What are students expected to do before attending a class?A.Go over the lessons thoroughly.

Travel information can be seen everywhere on the Internet and there are so many vacation packages waiting for you to choose. All this can make travel planning confusing and time consuming. To make a choice, tourists and business people often turn to travel agents, who provide them with the best possible travel arrangements.In general, travel agents give advice on places you should go to, and make arrangements for transportation, hotel accommodations, car rental, sightseeing, and entertainment. They may also tell you about weather conditions, restaurants, and tourists attractions. For international travel, agents also make sure that you have the necessary papers such as passports and visas, and tell you how to go through the customs. They sometimes provide information on money exchange rates.Travel agents will search all kinds of sources for information on departure and arrival times, fares, hotel ratings and accommodations. They may visit hotels andrestaurants to know more. In this way they will be able to provide their customers with more valuable advice on travel.Travel agents also promote their services, using phones, direct mail and the Internet. They arrange advertising displays for some social groups, and suggest company trips to business managers. Travel agents no longer receive commission from domestic airline, and they face more and more competition from the Internet for low cost fares. In orders to find a small business in the Market, many travel agents now specialize in travel to certain regions or for certain groups of people, such as honeymooners, grandparents, etc.6.

Howard had recently been in a hospital for lung disease. Fern helped Howard to a first-floor window, told him to climb out, and then ran to her daughter.Still inside, King appeared at Pearl’s window, making squeaking sound. When she ran toward Pearl’s bedroom, Fern realized her husband hadn’t yet escaped. She made her way back through the smoke and fire. Following King’s sound, she found Howard lay on the floor. Fern helped him get outside. King came out only after both were safe.At daybreak, the Carlsons saw that King’s entire body was badly burned. His chain collar had gotten so hot that it burned his throat. He couldn’t bark normally now. Only after the seven-year-old dog refused food did they find pieces of wood in his mouth.

AWomen nowadays are stronger and smarter than they were 50 years ago,and they can expect to live longer. Japanese women,for example,can expect to live 82 years,which is the longest in the world. Just 50 years ago,Japanese women could expect to live only 54 years.Many women are working today. In Japan,75% of women are working now,compared to 37% 50 years ago. The reason why so many women are working is that they're getting more education these days. The rate of Japanese women going to junior college and universities is higher than the rate for men. In 1947,the average Japanese woman got married at the age of 23. Today,the average age is 26. At the same time,divorce has increased by 50%.As for having babies,today the birth rate is only 1.5 babies for each woman. Fifty years ago,the birth rate was much higher,4.5 babies.In a recent survey,Japanese women were asked whether they would choose to be a man or a woman in the future life. 65% said they would prefer to be born again as a woman. In 1960,only 27% said they would want to be a woman again in the future. This suggests that nowadays more Japanese women are happier with their lives.36. The rate of women who are working now has increased by ______ percent compared with50 years ago.A. 37B. 38C. 50D. 7537. More and more women are working in Japan because _______ .A. they have to raise their familyB. they don't have anything else to doC. they have more education than beforeD. they want to be independent38. It can be inferred from the survey that _______ .A. more Japanese women would like to be a womanB. more Japanese women want to receive more educationC. more Japanese women want to be independentD. more Japanese women are satisfied with their present livesBWilliam Shakespeare was born more than 440 years ago and spent his childhood in his hometown,Stratford-on-Avon. Little was known about his childhood though many stories are told,some of which may be true. He probably went to Grammar school at Stratford. At thirteen he had to leave school as his father became poorer at one time. So William had to make his own living. At the age of eighteen he married a farmer's daughter.Not long after he left Stratford for London. London was growing rapidly. All kinds of people could be found in it,and here Shakespeare met travelers,students,and scholars,and he was very interested in the stories they told. He also met writers and actors. He soon found some work in a theatre. Before long he became an actor and writer of plays too. There were a few theatres in London. One of the most famous of these was called Globe. Shakespeare himself became one of the owners of this theatre. His became famous as a writer of plays soon after. He made use of the writing of others and found ideas in the old poems of Chaucer. By his gift he turned all these old stories into great works of his own. Shakespeare wrote no fewer than thirty-seven plays in his life. Now his works are loved and studied all over the world.39.

But unlike most of her colleagues(同事),she turned her pain into money: Today she is the boss of Taryn Rose International, a $528 million company that makes nice and comfortable shoes.At the beginning, Rose realized the only thing that could stop her was fear of, failure. "I could hear my friends and family saying, 'Why did you leave a good job?' If I failed, would I be okay facing them? And: t thought, 'So what? I can go back for further study in medicine.' I started to accept that it would be okay to say, 'I failed, but I tried.' Once I was comfortable with that th6fight, the fear came to an end. I realized I feared regret more than failure. And after you turn to the path you choose, there is nothing acceptable but Success"Now, Rose has no regrets about leaving medicine. "What I'm doing is not all that different from: what I Was doing as a doctor. The goal is the same: to relieve (减轻) pain. A former professor told me: 'You're helping hundreds of thousands of women with your shoes. As a doctor, you would have helped only the few who went to your office. You're having a much greater effect.'Looking back, Rose admits she caught a couple of lucky breaks. "To me, luck is about being prepared for those opportunities (机会) that come knocking. You have to have an open mind, the right skilis and all your senses working 'to see what opportunities present themselves. Luck can open the door, but you still have to walk through it."42.
