Many big fires are caused by carelessness. A lighted cigarette thrown （32） a car or a train window，or a broken bottle lying on dry grass can （33） a fire. Sometimes a fire can start on its own. Wet hay can begin of itself. This is （34）it happens：The hay starts to rot and begins to （35）heat which is trapped inside it. Finally，it bursts into flames. That is why farmers cut and store their hay when it's dry.Fires have destroyed （36）cities. In the 17th century，a small fire which （37）in a shop burst down nearly every building in London. Moscow was set fire to during the war against Napoleon. This fire （38）burning for seven days. Even today，in spite of modern fire-fighting （39），fire causes a great deal of damage each year both in our cities and in the countryside. It has been widely （40）that fire is a good servant but a very bad master.（）31A.his B.its C.our D.their（）32.A.into B.out of C.from D.over（）33.A.happen B.light C.make. D.start.（）34.A.what B.why C.how.

I've slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it's an ugly town now.Things have changed. For everybody，England meant gentlemen，fair play，and good manners. The fair play is going，unfortunately，andso are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners-people shut doors heavily in your face and politeness is disappearing.I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You're forced to live indoors. In Paris I go out much more，to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub，and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.As a woman，I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb on taxis because I will not take public transport after 10 p. m. I used to use it，but now I'm afraid.The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and that's typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbour who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles away，but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.（）41. The writer doesn't like London because she ______.A. is not used to the life there nowB. has lived there for seventeen yearsC. prefers to live in an old-fashioned houseD. has to be polite to everyone she meets there（）42. Where do people usually meet their friends in England？A. In a cafe.B. In a restaurant.C. In a nightclub.D. In a pub.（）43. The underlined part “it” （in Para. 4）refers to______.A. a taxiB. the moneyC. a bombD. public transport（）44. The writer took her neighbour to France for Christmas because he ______.A. felt lonely in EnglandB. had never been to FranceC. was from a typical French familyD. didn't like the British idea of familyBIf the world were a village of 1，000 people it would include：o 584 Asianso 124 Africanso 95 Eastern and Western Europeanso 84 Latin Americanso 55 former Soviets （including Lithuanians，Latvians，Estonians，and other national groups）o 52 North Americanso 6 Australians and New ZealandersThe people of the village would speak：o 165 Mandarino 86 Englisho 83 Hindu/Urduo 64 Spanisho 58 Russiano 37 ArabicThe above list covers the mother tongues of only half the village.One-third of the people in the village are children，and only 60 are over the age of 65. Just under half of the married women in the village have access to modem equipments.This year 28 babies will be bom. Ten people will die，3 of them for lack of food，1 from cancer. Two of the deaths will be of babies bom within the year. With the 28 births and 10 deaths，the population of the village next year will be 1，018.In this village of 1，000 persons，200 people receive 75 percent of the income；another 200 receive only 2 percent of the income.About one-third have access to clean，safe drinking water.Of the 670 adults in the village，half can not read nor write.The village has a total yearly budget （预算），public and private，of over $3 million-$ 3 ，000 per person if it is distributed evenly. Of the total $3 million：$ 181，000 goes to weapons and warfare$ 159，000 to education$ 132，000 to health careThese weapons are under the control of just 100 of the people. The other 900 are watching them with deep anxiety，wondering whether they can learn to get along together.（）45. Which of the following is true about Mandarin accordingto the text？A. Nearly one-third of Asian people speak Mandarin in the village.B. About 8.25 per cent of the people speak Mandarin in the village.C. About 16. 5 per cent of the people speak Mandarin in the village.D. Nearly all the Mandarin-speaking people are from Asia in the village.（）46. Which of the following problems is NOT mentioned in the text？A. Poverty.B. Education.C. Environment.D. Marriage.（）47. The underl ined part “have access to” （in Para. 4）means_____.A. useB. buyC. produceD. try（）48. The last sentence in the text implies that most of the people long for _____.A. a peaceful worldB. good educationC. better health careD. a life without anxietyCShopping is not as simple as you may think！There are all sorts of tricks at play each time we reach out for that particular brand （品牌）of product on the shelf.Colouring，for example，varies according to what the producers are trying to sell. Health foods are packaged （包装）in greens，yellowsor browns because we think of these as healthy colours. Ice cream packets are often blue and expensive goods，like chocolates，are gold or silver.When some kind of pain killer was brought out recently，researchers found that the colours turned the customers off because they made the product look weak and ineffective. Eventually，it came on the market in a dark blue and white package-blue because we think of it as safe，and white as calm.The size of a product can attract a shopper. But quite often a bottle doesn't contain as much as it appears to.It is believed that the better-known companies spend，on average，70 per cent of the total cost of the product itself on packaging！The most successful producers know that it's not enough to have a good product. The founder of Pears soap，who for 25 years has used pretty little girls to promote （推销）their goods，came to the conclusion：“Any fool can make soap，but it takes a genius （天才）to sell it.”（）49. Which of the following may trick a shopper into buying a product according to the text？A. The cost of its package.B. The price of the product.C. The colour of its package.D. The brand name of the product.（）50. The underlined part “the colours turned the customers off”（in Para. 3 ）means that the colours _____.A. attracted the customers stronglyB. had weak effects on the customersC. tricked the customers into shoppingD. caused the customers to lose interest（）51. Which of the following is the key to the success in product sales？A. The way to promote goods.B. The discovery of a genius.C. The team to produce a good product.D. The brand name used by successful producers.（）52. Which of the following would be the best title for this text？A. Choice of Good ProductsB. Disadvantages of ProductsC. Effect of Packaging on ShoppingD. Brand Names and Shopping TricksDPulling heavy suitcases all day in the summer is hard work，especially when you're a thin 14-year-old. That was me in 1940-the youngest and smallest baggage boy at New York City's Pennsylvania Railway Station.After just a few days on the job，I began noticing that the otherfellows were overcharging passengers. I'd like to join them，thinking，“Everyone else is doing it.”When I got home that night，I told my dad what I wanted to do. “You give an honest day's work，” he said，looking at me straight in the eye. “They're paying you. If they want to do that，you let them do that.”I followed my dad's advice for the rest of that summer and have lived by his words ever since.Of all the jobs I've had，it was my experience at Pennsylvania Railway Station that has stuck with me. Now I teach my players to have respect for other people and their possessions. Being a member of a team is a totally shared experience. If one person steals，it destroys trust and hurts everyone. I can put up with many things，but not with people who steal. If one of my players were caught stealing，he'd be gone.Whether you're on a sports team，in an office or a member of a family，if you can't trust one another，there's going to be trouble.（）53. What can be inferred about the baggage boys？A. They could earn much，but they had to work hard.B. Many of them earned money in a dishonest way.C. They were all from poor families.D. They were all thin，young boys.（）54. What does the father's advice imply？A. It is wrong to give more pay to the passengers.B. Don't believe them if they are paying you more.C. Don't follow others to overcharge the passengers.D. It is difficult to work hard and live as an honest boy.（）55. The writer can't put up with stealing because he thinks that ______.A. it is a totally shared experienceB. it is considered as the most dangerousC. it does great harm to human relationshipD. it may lead to the loss of his sports teamV. Daily ConversationA.I'm doing great.B. Yes.I'm pretty busy lately.C.It's still early.D.They are fine，thank you .E.I think so .F. My pleasure.G. She is mad . H. You didn't have to do it.（）56.Tony：How's your family>Tom：__________________.（）57.Amy：How about your studies？Ronald：___________________.（）58.Guest：I'm afraid I've got to go now.Host：______________________.（）59.Peter：Thank you for all you've done for me.Andrew：________________________.（）60. Hello. Haven't seen you for ages.Gary：____________________.V. WritingDirection：For this part，you are supposed to write an announcement in 100-120 words based on the following situation.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneIn ancient times wealth was measured and exchanged in things that could be touched: food, tools, and precious metals andToday electronic monetary systems are gradually being introduced that will transform money into even less tangible forms, reducing it to a series of “bits and bytes”, or units of computerized information, going between machines at the speed of light.

For the firstgroup the room was painted white; for the second, dark brown. Movement of each group was followed by an electrical equipment under the carpet. The experiment showed that those who entered the dark brown walked more quickly, covered more area, and spent less time in the room than people in the white one. Dark brown made people more active, but the activity ended sooner. Not only the choice of colors but also the general appearance of a room affects those inside. Another experiment presented people with photographs of faces whose energy was to be commented. Three groups of people wereordinary-looking or ugly rooms.66. Which of the following is the best expression of the main idea of this passage?People in beautiful rooms tend to give higher marks to photos of faces than people in ugly roomsThe color and general appearance of a room have a deeper effect on the behavior of the people in itThe University of Kansas has studied the effects of the color of room on people’s behaviorBeautifully furnished, light-coloured rooms make people more comfortable than ugly, dark rooms67.

At least how many tests were carried out by the scientists referred to in this passage?A. ThreeB. TwoC. Only oneD. No one knowsPassage ThreeThe water we drink and use is running short in the world. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our limited water. One of the steps we should take is to find ways of reusing it. Experiments have already been done in this field.Today in most large cities, fresh water is used only once, then it runs into waste system. But it is possible to pipe the used water to a purifying factory. There it can be filtered and treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as it were fresh from a spring.But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. T hen we could turn to the oceans. All we’d have to do to make use of the seawater on earth is to get rid of the salt. This process is called desalinization, and it is already in use in many parts of the world.B. purify the used water and reuse itC. use fresh water once againD. make use of seawater72. The following tells us how to reuse the used water. Which is the right order of the passage?A. to have the used water filteredB. to put chemicals in itC. to pipe it to the usersD. to pipe the used water to be purified to a factory73. There wouldn’t be enough water for us if we didn’t _________.A. turn to the oceans for more waterB. reuse used water and make use of seawaterC. desalt seawaterD. take steps to reuse all water on earth74. The would “it” in the last sentence refers to _______.A. seawaterB. purified waterC. the process of getting rid of the salt in seawaterD. the process of collecting salt from the sea oceans75. The best title for the passage is “_______”.A. How to Reuse WaterB. Two Solutions to the Problem of Water ShortageC. Stop Wasting Our Limited WaterD. How to Make Use of SeawaterPassage FourSome people hate everything that is modern. They cannot imagine how anyone can really like modern music; they find it hard to accept the new fashions in clothing; they think that all modern painting is ugly; and they seldom have a good word for the new buildings that are being built everywhere in the world. Such people look for perfection in everything, and they take their standards of perfection from thepast. They are usually impatient with anyone who is brave enough to experiment with new or to express himself or the age in materials original ways. It is, of course, true that many artists do not succeed in their work and instead produce works that can only be considered as failures. If the work of art is a painting, the artist’s failure concerns himself alone, but if it is a building, his failure concerns others too, because it may damage the beauty of the whole place. This does sometimes happen, but it is completely untrue to say, as some people do, that modern architecture is nothing.We can’t judge every mo dern building by the standards of the ancient time, even though we admire the ancient buildings. Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced. The modern architect knows he should learn from the ancient works, but with his greater resources of knowledge and materials, he will never be content to imitate the past. He is too proud to do that.76. Some people hate everything that is modern because _______.C. they take their standards of perfection from the GreekD. they look at things by the standards of the past77. The writer of the passage thinks that ________.it is true to say artists fail in their workit is untrue to say artists fail in their workit is true to say some artists fail in their workit is true to say only painters fail in their work78. The writer thinks the failure of a building _______.A. means nothingB. concerns othersC. concerns only the artistD. concerns all the people in the world79. The writer thinks that _________.we can’t judge buildings by the ancient standardswe can’t judge all the buildings by the ancient standardswe can’t judge all the modern buildings by the ancient standardswe can’t judge modern buildings80. Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced. The sentence means _____.the ancient architects had no technologythe modern architects use more advanced technologythe modern buildings are advanced because they are completely different from the ancient buildingsthe modern buildings are more beautifulⅤ. Writing (20 points)Directions:For this part, you are allowed 20 minutes to write a short composition of about 80 words on the title: Where to Live-in the City or in the Country? Base your composition on the outline given below.1.⼀些⼈喜欢住在城市，因为城市⽣活有许多便利。

2024年成人高考成考(高起本)英语试题与参考答案
2024年成人高考成考英语(高起本)模拟试题与参考答案一、语音知识（本大题有5小题，每小题2分，共10分）1、Listen to the following words and choose the one whose underlined part is pronounced differently from the others:A. dropB. sportC. workD. wordAnswer: CExplanation: In this option, the underlined part is pronounced /ɜːr/, while in the other options, it is pronounced /ɔː/ or /ɑː/ depending on the context.2、Choose the word whose underlined part has a different pronunciation from the others:A. withB. thickC. richD. witherAnswer: DExplanation: The underlined part in “thick” and “rich” is pronounced /ɪ/, while in “with” and “wither,” it is pronounced /ɪ/. The difference lies in the “th” in “wither,” which changes the pronunciation to /iː/.3、Listen to the following sentences and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the rest:A. catB. canC. carD. cartAnswer: B (can)Explanation: The other words are all pronounced with the “k” sound at the beginning. The word “can” has the “k” sound before the “an” vowel combination, but it’s not pronounced as a separate “k” sound.4、Choose the sentence that contains an example of the schwa sound:A. She has a cat.B. It is a small cat.C. The cat is beautiful.D. With a cat in the room.Answer: B (It is a small cat)Explanation: The schwa sound is represented by the symbol əand is a weak vowel sound. In option B, the word “is” is pronounced with a schwa sound, which is characteristic of the schwa. The other sentences don’t contain an example ofthe schwa sound.5、Listen to the following sentence and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the others.A. appleB. bananaC. catD. fatherAnswer: CExplanation: The words “apple,” “banana,” and “father” are all pronounced with a short /æ/ sound. The word “cat,” however, is pronounced with a long /æ/ sound. Therefore, “cat” is the word that is pronounced differently.二、词汇与语法知识（本大题有15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1、The conference will be held in the auditorium____all the sports stars are expected to attend.A. whereB. whichC. thatD. asAnswer: A. whereExplanation: “Where” is used here as a relative adverb to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause. In this context, “where all the sports starsare expected to attend” describes the location of the auditorium. The use of “which” or “that” would make the clause restrictive, which is not requiredin this sentence.2、Despite the heavy rain, the workers___on time for the site meeting.A. had comeB. comeC. cameD. were comingAnswer: C. cameExplanation: “Came” is the past tense of the verb “to come,” fitting the past tense context of the sentence. “Had come” and “were coming” suggesta past perfect and continuous aspect, which is not required in this context. “Come” is th e simple present tense, which does not match the past tense indicator in the beginning of the sentence.3、Choose the word that does not belong in the following list:a)translate b) eventual c) elect d) renovateAnswer: c) electExplanation: The word “elect” is the odd one out because it means “choose” or “select,” whereas the other words are all related to the process of changing or transferring something. “Translate” means to convert words from one language to another, “eventual” refers to an outcome that wi ll happen eventually, and “renovate” means to repair, update, or improve something.4、Choose the correct past participle form of the verb in parentheses:The students__________(visit) the museum on the weekend.a)visited b) has visited c) having visited d) will visitAnswer: a) visitedExplanation: The correct past participle to use with the modal verb “have” and the past tense of the verb “visit” is “visited.” Therefore, the correct sentence is “The students visited the museum on the weekend.” Options b) and d) are incorrect because “has visited” is the present perfect tense and “will visit” is the future simple tense. Option c) “having visited” is incorrect as it seems to suggest an ongoing action, while the sentence is about a completed action.5、Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The speaker was___________by the audience, who cheered and applauded enthusiastically.A)ignoredB)admiredC)appreciatedD)overwhelmedAnswer: D) overwhelmedExplanation: The context of the sentence suggests that the speaker was positively affected by the audience’s reaction. “Overwhelmed” means to be affected emotionally in a very strong way, often with feelings of excitement or happiness. The other options do not fit the context as well: “ignored” means not paid attention to, “admired” means regarded with respect or approval, and“appreciated” means to be grateful for or to recognize the value of something.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses: Although the weather was terrible, the marathon runners___________(be) determined to finish the race.A)areB)wereC)isD)were beingAnswer: B) wereExplanation: The sentence describes an action that happened in the past. The phrase “Although the weather was terrible” sets the scene, and the main clause “the marathon runners” is referring to people who were running in the past. Therefore, the correct form of the verb to use is the past simple tense, “were.” The other options are incorrect because “are” is the present simple tense, “is” is the singular present tense, and “were being” is the past continuous tense, which does not fit the context of the sentence.7、He was told not to go abroad. As a result, he .A) has decided to stayB) decided to stayC) will decide to stayD) decides to stayAnswer: B解析：本题考查时态。

At the age of fifteen, Bolt was 196 cm tall and he dominated the 2002 World Junior Championships, becoming the youngest person ever (23)______ (win) the 200 metres. He turned professional when he left high school, (24)______ (age) seventeen. During the first couple of years of Bolt’s professional life, he got a few injuries, but his health soon improved and he began to winall the major championships. He went from strength to strength, (25)______ (amaze) the world with his speed.So, how does he do it? Bolt says that he is naturally fast—just something he was born (26)______.

Take, for example, the disagreement about his ___31___. The Spanish say he was from Spain, and the Italians claim he was from Italy. There is, in fact, some ___32___ that he was born in 1451 in Genoa, which is now part of Italy.Columbus became a sailor at an early age and had made journeys as far as Iceland and Guinea before he made his famous voyage in 1482. Contrary to popular ___33___. Co lumbus didn’tsail to the Americas in order to find out whether the Earth was round: at the end of the 15th century almost everyone knew it was round. We do know that he sailed in part to fulfill a religious quest: he saw journeys as a fulfillment of a divine(神圣的) plan for his life.Of course, the other ___34___ known reason for this voyage was that Columbus was looking for a new route to the Spice Islands (now part of Indonesia), and he believed he could reach them by sailing west rather than east. The discovery of the New World was therefore a(n) ___35___ case of “serendipity”(机缘凑巧). In 1492, when he unexpectedly discovered the Americas, he had been traveling for five weeks and has sailed for 3,000 miles. He thought he had arrived in the East Indies.Columbus left on the voyage of discovery from the south of Spain, with a(n) ___36___ made up mainly of experienced sailors from the area. He made two ___37___ voyages before the end of the century, taking Europeans across to the new lands. On his third voyage in 1498, he also took women to the New World.This third voyage was not a happy one for Columbus. The settlers ___38___ against him, and he was unable to send a lot of gold back, so he was arrested and returned to Spain in chains. However, the King and Queen soon apologized, saying there had been a mistake, and Columbus was freed. By this time, 1500, Columbus was not a well man and he died quietly at the age of 55 in Valladolid, Spain, on May 20, 1506, in his own apartment ___39___ by family and friends. He was a(n) ___40___ rich man at the time of his death.III. Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there arefour words or phases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Agree to DisagreeIn a world of 6.5 million opinionated people, arguments are sure to happen. Many people see arguments as an inevitable and negative part of life. Inevitable, yes; ___41___, maybe not. Arguments can often lead to positive change—if you argue ___42___.Arguing “well”“There ___43___ is such a thing as a ‘healthy argument’,” says Marian Donahue, a human relations professional, San Diego. “In a healthy argument, one’s own goal should be to explain the issues in detail, to communicate the upset behind the issues, and to really seek to move forward toward a ___44___,” she says. “The minimum goal should be to preserve the relationship well enough to keep ___45___ alive.”What not to doNothing ___46___ a healthy argument like a personal attack, and personal attacks are a big no-no if you want an argument to end positively. Dina Connolly, a graduate student at Northwestern University, Illinois, says that when professional relationships start amassing(积累) personal baggage, ___47___ arguments are just around the corner.“The structure or wall of professionalism collapses,” Connolly says, “taking down any filters as well. ___48___, after an individual interrupted and then corrected me while making a public speech, I later ended up in an argument where I completely lost my temper and raised my voice. I was embarrassed, and because my relationship with that person was already so deconstructed and unprofessional, I ___49___ with thatperson directly and unprofessionally in an unfiltered attack.”D on’t be ___50___ the heatDonahue ___51___ that personal issues must be left at the door—but that doesn’t mean arguments won’t get heated. “Passion and conflict are ___52___ in an argument as long as you keep to the issue,” she says, “Attacking the other p erson is not useful. That kind of argument closes down the ___53___ on both sides to keep talking.”By actively listening, many arguments can be ___54___ altogether. If you do find yourself in the thick of one, listening with an open mind can bring about a swift ___55___ to the argument and perhaps a positive resolution.41. A. sure B. argumentative C. negative D. changing42. A. confidently B. correctly C. heatedly D. hesitantly43. A. definitely B. barely C. accidentally D. clearly44.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)Things changed for Ben Southall when the Australian state of Queensland advertised a job for someone to look after Hamilton Island in the Great Barrier Reef. They knew it sounded like the best job in the world, but they were surprised when over 35,000 people applied for the job. Then they had to make a difficult decision—which person to choose from so many candidates? After a lot of testing and interviewing, they announced 34-year-old Ben Southall from England as the winner. Ben now works for the Queensland Tourist Board and his job is to look after the island and to promote tourism there. Because of the unique nature of the job, the Tourist Board wanted a unique person, with a range of skills and qualities. It was a long interview process, involving a variety of tasks to find out about each candidate.Fitness was very important; swimming ability was particularly essential. Ben can swim very well and he also likes running, climbing, diving and mountain biking. It is clear that, physically, he can do almost anything. The ability to communicate was as important as fitness. For the last part of the interview process, the final sixteen candidates did various tests and tasks, including talking to TV and radio reporters. The competition was touch and the candidates needed to show what they could do. The interviewers were interested in how the candidates performed in the tasks, how they handled the press attention and their abilityto write about their adventures in a daily log. The candidates did their best to impress the interviewers and they knew they couldn’t make any mistakes at this final stage.Before he went, Ben was confident about his abilities to handle the challenge. He couldn’t do everything they asked him in the interview, as he can’t speak any other languages, but he felt that his other skills and his personality were impressive. He made a huge effort during the interview process and he was able to convince the interviewers that he was the best person for the job. Even so, he says he was amazed when he got the job; he couldn’t believe it! He hopes to do a good job and promote the island successfully: he has to get to know every part of the island and tell the world about it in numerous media interviews. When you read Ben’s blogs from his interview tasks, it is easy to see why they chose him. He is funny and easy-going and he will certainly get the attention of any potential tourist to this beautiful place.56. According to the passage, Ben’s job includes all of the following EXCEPT ______.A. knowing Hamilton Island very wellB. going to Hamilton Island once a dayC. being interviewed in different mediaD. drawing travellers’ attention to the island57. During the interview process, the candidates were asked to ______.A. go through a fitness trainingB. take part in various TV showsC. write about their own interviewsD. communicate with the press58. Why was Ben chosen for the job?A. He is easy to get along with.B. He kept his personal blog very well.C. He used to be a swimming champion.D. He can several foreign languages.59. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Hamilton Island gets well protectedB. The funniest job in the worldC. Ben gets dream jobD. Tourism in Australia(B)Preview Sections Before You ReadEach chapter consists of three, four, or five sections. These sections focus on shorter periods of time or on particular historical themes.

Blue heads label the major topics; red subheads signal smaller topics within a major topic. Together, these heads give you a quick outline of the section.60. The passage is most probably found in ______.A. a magazineB. a newspaperC. a textbookD. a guidebook61. In which section is a reader most likely to find what aperson thinks of a historical event?A. Main IdeaB. Why It Matters NowC. Terms & NamesD. One American’s Story62. Heads are presented in different colours in order to ______.A. gives readers a whole picture of the sectionB. help readers find different kinds of topicsC. attract readers’ attention, especially young readersD. get readers to identify most important points(C)In 1851, Auguste Comte, the French philosopher and father of sociology, coined the new word altruism as part of a drive to create a non-religious religion based on scientific principles. He defined it as “intentional action for the welfare of others that involves at least the possibility of either no benefit or a loss to t he actor”. At that time, studies of animal behavior and phrenology(颅相学)led him to locate egotistical(自我本位的)instincts at the back of the brain, altruistic ones at the front.Today, we have a far more sophisticated knowledge of the neurological(神经学的)and biochemical factors that underpin kind behavior. And this science forms the bases of two books aimed at general readers—but also at those who, despite the research, still doubt the existence of altruism.However, the books may end up providing more information for those who are doubtful. Take The Altruistic Brain by neuroscientist Donald Pfaff. On solid scientific ground, he builds a five-step theory of how altruism occurs, which depends on an idea that is unconvincing and may achieve the opposite result. Pfaff argues that to act altruistically you should first visualize the receiver of your good will, then mentally transform their image into your own, “from angle to angle and curve to curve”. Doesit really work?At the core of evolutionary biologist David Sloa n Wilson’s Does Altruism Exist? is another contentious(有争议的)idea: altruism has evolved as the result of group selection. But Wilson argues his corner masterfully, providing a clever reply to the belief that natural selection occurs only at the level of the selfish gene: “Selfishness beats altruism within groups. Altruistic groups beat selfish groups,” he says.In other words, we cooperate when doing so gives our team the advantage. That doesn’t sound very selfless either.Wilson acknowledges this, but argues that thoughts and feelings are less important than actions. According to evolutionary theory, pure altruists do exist, but it doesn’t matter why people choose to help others—their reasons may be difficult even for themselves to understand. What matters is that humans can coordinate their activities in just the right way to achieve common goals. Other animals do this too, but we are masters. “Teamwork is the signature adaptation of our species,” he says.Pfaff goes further, insisting that our brain biology “urges us to be kind”. He believes this knowledge alone will inspire individuals to be more altruistic. His desire to create a better world is admirable and some of his ideas are interesting, but Wilson’s analysis is clearer.While it is in our nature to be altruistic, Wilson says, we also have a healthy regard for self-interest and a resistance to being pushed around. Which one comes to the fore depends on the environment in which we find ourselves. Ethics, he says, cannot be taught at individual level, b ut are “a property of the whole system”.63. Which of the following can be considered an altruisticbehaviour according to Comte’s definition?A. A person offers to donate his liver to another who needs one.B. A clerk returns the umbrella to his colleague which he has kept for a long time.C. A student volunteers to wok in the orphanage to collect data for his research.D. A police officer spots a car parking in the no-parking area, finding a child in the trunk.64. What does Donald Pfaff think people should do in order to behave altruistically?A. Draw a picture of the person they are going to help.B. Transform the receiver into a kind person.C. Visualize what they are going to do in mind first.D. Imagine they themselves are to be helped.65. Which of the following statements is David Sloan most likely to agree with in his book?A. Being kind is not something people are born with.B. People in groups are less likely to be selfish.C. People may well act selflessly because of where they are.D. Most people know clearly why they are ready to help others.66. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Figuring out what makes us behave selflessly is a tricky business.B. Unlike Donald Pfaff’s book, David Sloan’s book aims at professional readers.C. Comte’s d efinition of altruism proves to be impractical in modern times.D. Both Donald Pfaff and David Sloan lay emphasis on teamwork.Section CDirections: Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.I owe it all to my community collegeIn 1974, I graduated from Skyline High School in Oakland, California, an underachieving student with poor SAT scores. I couldn’t afford tuition for college anyway. ___67___.For thousands of commuting students like me, Chabot was our Harvard, offering course in physics, stenography, automechanics, certified public accounting, foreign language, journalism and so on. Classmates included veterans(老兵)back from Vietnam, married women returning to school, middle-aged men wanting to improve their employment prospects and paychecks. We could get our general education requirements out of the way at Chabot—credits we could transfer to a university—which made those two years an invaluable head start.Classes I took at Chabot have rippled(起涟漪)through my professional pond. I produced the HBO mini-series John Adams with an outline format I learned from a pipe-smoking historian, James Coovelis, whose lectures were interesting. Mary Lou Fitzgerald’s “Studies in Shakespeare” taught me how the five-act structures of Richard III, The Tempest, and Othello focused their themes.In Herb Kennedy’s “Drama in Performance,” I read plays like The Hot L Baltimore and Desire Under the Elms, then saw their productions. I got to see the plays he taught, through student rush tickets at the American Conservatory Theater in San Francisco and the Berkeley Repertory Theatre. ___68___. I got anA. Some hours I stayed in the huge library, where I first read the New York Times, frustrated by its lack of comics.If Chabot’s library still has its collection of vinyl records(黑胶唱片), you will find my name repeatedly on the takeout slip of Jason Robards’s performance of the monologue of Eugene O’Neill. ___69___.Chabot College is still in Hayward, though Mr. Coovelis, Ms. Fitzgerald, and Mr. Kennedy are no longer there. I drove past the campus a few years ago with one of my kids and summed up my two years there this way:”___70___”A. I listened to it 20 times at least.B. That place made me what I am today.C. Community colleges have improved a lot these years.D. Those plays filled my head with expanded dreams.E. Of course, I enjoyed the pleasure of eating French fries between classes.F. So I sent my test results to Chabot, a community college in nearby Hayward, California, which accepted everyone and was free.IV. Summary WritingDirections: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Learn from mistakesThe best way to learn something is to make mistakes first. Thomas Edison, who invented the light bulb, told his colleagues:” Of the 200 light bulbs that didn’t work, every failure told me something I was able t o incorporate into the next attempt.” Benjamin Franklin, the US statesman and scientist once said: “ I haven’t failed. I have had 10,000 ideas that didn’t work.”Both these people understood that failures and false starts are the condition of success. In fact, a surprising number of everyday objects had their beginnings in a mistake or a misunderstanding. Post-it-notes, packets of crisps and even bread are all unexpected inventions. In 2600 BC, a tired Egyptian slave invented bread when the dough rose during his sleep . And crips were first cooked by a chief in the USA when a customer complained that his fried potatoes were not thin enough.In 1958 Spencer Silver was trying to develop a strong adhesive when he accidentally invented a very weak glue instead. His colleague, Art Fry , decided to use it six years later, in 1974, to hold his bookmarks in his books and the post-it note was invented.Successful businesspeople have often made big , expensive mistakes in their past. When an employee of IBM made a mistake that cost the company $600,000, Thomos Watson, the chairman, was asked if he would fire the man.” “ Of course not,” he replied. “ I have just spent $600,000 training him. I am not going to let another company benefit from experience.”The important thing to remember is that you need to learn from your mistakes. If you don’t ,then there is no sense in making them.”V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1. 熬夜会大大消耗你的体力。

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Of the thousands of different kinds of animals that exist in the world man has learned to make friends with an enormous number. Some are pets, offering him companionship; some give protection, and some do hard work which man cannot do for himself. Others, unfortunately, are kept as food. Dogs, which serve man in all four capacities(Korea and China are big dog eaters), are found in various breeds(品种)in all countries of the world. The Husky can live in the cold polar regions, and the Saluki is a1 home in the hottest parts of Central Africa. The inhabitants of certain countries are dependent for their very lives on the camel. In the West Indies the little donkey, strong and sure-footed, carrying heavy loads even in mountainous places, is a familiar sight. Trained and tamed for many generations, domestic animals are not accustomed to roaming in search of food and shelter. They look to their masters to provide for their needs, and as long as these are supplied, they are content to do what their masters require. All domestic animals need proper food. It must he suitahle for them, sufficient in quantity, fresh and clean. Some people feed a pet dog or cat on left-over food, and then wonder why the animal seems listless(倦怠的)and dull. The quantity of food depends on the size of the animal and the amount of exercise it takes. Overfeeding is as bad as underfeeding. Containers for food and water must be washed regularly if the animal is to maintain good health. Even well-cared-for animals may sometimes fall ill. If this happens, the wise master seeks the best advice he can get. All sorts of medicines and treatments are available for sick animals, and in some countries organizations exist to provide them free or at a cheap price. Useful, friendly and hardworking animals deserve to have some time, money and attention spent on their health.1．What does the author mainly want to convey in the first paragraph?A．There exist thousands of species of animals in the world.B．Man came to establish a close relationship with a number of animals.C．In some regions dogs seem to be more closely related to man.D．Most animals existing in the world are kept by humans now.正确答案：B解析：本题属于主旨大意题，提问的是作者在第一段中主要传达什么意思。

It has brought about many changes in the way we live and work. In this passage, we will explore some of the advantages and disadvantages of the Internet.The Internet has made it possible for people to communicate with each other more easily than ever before. We can now send emails, instant messages, and even video calls to our friends and family, no matter where they are in the world. This has greatly reduced the distance between us and made it easier to keep in touch with loved ones.However, the Internet also has its disadvantages. One of the biggest concerns is the potential for addiction. Many people spend too much time online, which can lead to problems with their health, relationships, andwork. Additionally, the Internet can be a source of misinformation and scams, which can harm individuals and society as a whole.Another disadvantage of the Internet is the impact it has on our privacy. With the vast amount of data collected by companies and governments, our personal information is at risk of being misused. This can lead to identity theft, fraud, and other serious consequences.Despite these disadvantages, the Internet has brought many benefits to our lives. One of the most significant advantages is the access to information. We can now find information on virtually any topic within seconds, which has made learning and research much more efficient. This has opened up opportunities for people to educate themselves and improve their skills.The Internet has also transformed the way we work. Many businesses now operate entirely online, which has made it possible for people to work from home or any location. This has increased flexibility and productivity, as well as reduced commuting time and costs.Furthermore, the Internet has provided a platform for social activismand community organizing. People can now come together to support causes they care about, share information, and take action to make a difference.In conclusion, the Internet has brought about many changes in our lives, both positive and negative. While it has made communication easier, provided access to information, and transformed the way we work, it also has its drawbacks. It is important for us to be aware of these advantages and disadvantages and use the Internet responsibly.31.

Regular exercise can improve mood, reduce stress, and increase self-esteem.One study found that individuals who exercised regularly reportedfeeling happier and more energetic than those who did not. Exercise stimulates the release of endorphins, which are natural painkillers and mood elevators. Additionally, physical activity can distract from negative thoughts and improve sleep quality.Another study showed that exercise can help reduce symptoms of depression. Participants who engaged in regular physical activity reported fewer symptoms of depression than those who did not. This is likely due to the fact that exercise promotes the release of neurotransmitters, such as serotonin, which are associated with mood regulation.In addition to improving mood and reducing stress, exercise can also increase self-esteem. Individuals who engage in regular physicalactivity often experience a sense of accomplishment and pride in their achievements. This can lead to a more positive self-image and increased confidence.It is important to note that the type of exercise does not matter as much as consistency. Any form of physical activity, such as walking, jogging, cycling, or swimming, can have a positive impact on mental health. The key is to find an activity that you enjoy and make it a regular part of your routine.41. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Exercise is beneficial for physical health.B. Exercise is beneficial for mental health.C. Exercise is beneficial for both physical and mental health.D. Exercise is not beneficial for anyone.42. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a benefit of exercise in the passage?A. Improved moodB. Reduced stressC. Increased self-esteemD. Increased anxiety43. What does the passage suggest about the type of exercise?A. It is important to choose a specific type of exercise.B. Any form of physical activity can have a positive impact.C. Only certain types of exercise are beneficial.D. It is not important to exercise regularly.44. How does exercise help reduce symptoms of depression?A. It stimulates the release of endorphins.B. It promotes the release of neurotransmitters.C. It improves sleep quality.D. It distracts from negative thoughts.45. What is the author's attitude towards exercise?A. NegativeB. NeutralC. PositiveD. IndifferentPassage 2The Internet has revolutionized the way we live and work, but it hasalso brought about challenges in terms of privacy and security. With the vast amount of data collected by companies and governments, our personal information is at risk of being misused.One of the biggest concerns is identity theft. Cybercriminals can use stolen personal information to open new accounts, make unauthorized purchases, and commit fraud. This can lead to financial loss and damage to credit scores.Another concern is the surveillance of our online activities. Many companies and governments monitor our internet usage to collect data on our preferences and behaviors. This can lead to a loss of privacy andthe potential for misuse of our personal information.To protect our privacy and security online, it is important to take certain precautions. One of the most important steps is to use strong passwords and two-factor authentication. This can help prevent unauthorized access to our accounts.Another important measure is to be cautious about the information we share online. We should avoid posting sensitive personal information, such as our address, phone number, or social security number, on social media platforms.It is also important to use secure and up-to-date software on our devices. This can help protect us from malware and viruses that can compromise our personal information.In conclusion, while the Internet has brought many benefits to our lives, it also poses significant risks to our privacy and security. By taking steps to protect our personal information, we can mitigate these risks and enjoy the benefits of the Internet while minimizing the potentialfor harm.46. What is the main idea of the passage?A. The Internet has revolutionized the way we live and work.B. The Internet has brought about challenges in terms of privacy and security.C.

With the rapid development of industries and urbanization,our planet is facing numerous environmental challenges. In this essay, I will discuss the importance of environmental protection and the measures we can take to protect our environment.Firstly, environmental protection is crucial for the health and well-being of human beings. Air and water pollution, deforestation, andglobal warming are all caused by human activities. These environmental issues can lead to various health problems, such as respiratory diseases, cancer, and cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, the destruction ofnatural habitats can result in the loss of biodiversity, which is essential for maintaining ecological balance.Secondly, environmental protection is essential for the sustainabilityof our planet. Natural resources are finite, and their exploitation without proper management can lead to depletion. For example, the overuse of fossil fuels contributes to climate change, while excessive deforestation leads to soil erosion and desertification. Therefore, itis crucial to develop renewable energy sources and promote sustainable land use practices.To protect our environment, we can take several measures. Firstly, governments should implement strict environmental regulations andenforce them effectively. Secondly, individuals should adopt eco-friendly habits, such as reducing waste, conserving water and energy,and using public transportation. Thirdly, businesses should adopt sustainable practices and invest in green technologies.In conclusion, environmental protection is of paramount importance for the health, well-being, and sustainability of our planet. By taking collective action, we can ensure a better future for ourselves and future generations.。
