Evidence shows that the joble ss are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever t he unemployment.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (79)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they ar e working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and war mth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Word makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his s tudents grow, they are happy beyond words.(80)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1.The underlined word “average ” in Paragraph I means __ . CA.healthyB. lazyC. ordinaryD. poor2.The reason why housewives are not as healthy as career women is that ___ ___. CA.housewives are poorer than career womenB.housewives have more children than career womenC.housewives have less chance to communicate with othersD.housewives eat less food than career women3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2? DA.Busy people have nothing to do at home.B.High achievers don ' t care about their families.C.There is no friendship and warmth at home.D. A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.4.We can infer from the passage that those who do not work . AA.are likely to live a shorter lifeB.will lose everything at homeC.can live as long as those who workD.have more time to make new friends5.The best title for this passage may be . BA.People Should Find a JobB.Working Hard Is Good for HealthC.People Should Make More Friends by WorkD.The Loss of Word Means the Loss of EverythingPassage 2A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture t han is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history cours es concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information a bout thedaily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art. （78） In shor t, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history b ooks.In history books, objective information about the political life of a coun try is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective（主观的）: it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first t ruly “ political ” artist. In his well -known painting The Third of May , 1808, h e criticized the Spanish government for its abuse （滥用） of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a culture ' s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn ' t read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church wal ls. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was （andstill is） its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islami c belief that statues （雕像） are not holy.6.More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because ___. CA.art history shows us nothing but the political valuesB.general history only focuses on politicsC.art history gives us an insight （洞察力） into the essential qualities o f a time and a placeD.general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psycholog y7.Art is subjective in that . AA. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through itB.it only reflects people ' s anger or sadness about social problemsC.it can easily arouse people ' s anger about their governmentD.artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society8.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? CA.In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B.Francisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808C.In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on pala ces or other building.D.For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.9 The passage mainly discusses . BA.the development of art historyB.he difference between general history and art historyC.what we can learn from artD.the influence of artists on art history10.It can be concluded from the passage that . CA.Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in thei r paintingsB.it is more difficult to study art history than general historyC. a history teacher must be quite objectiveD.artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their politica l beliefsPassage 3Blind people can “ see” things by using other parts of their bodies. Thisfact may help us to understand our feelings about color. If blind people can se nse color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciousl y（无意识地）。

Answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C and D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Passage OnePrior to the 20th century, many languages with small numbers of speakers survived for centuries. The increasingly interconnected modern world makes it much more difficult for small language communities to live in relative isolation, a key factor in language maintenance and preservation.It remains to be seen whether the world can maintain its linguistic and cultural diversity in the centuries ahead. Many powerful forces appear to work against it :population growth, which pushes migrant populations into the world’s last isolated locations; mass tourism; global telecommunications and mass media; and the spread of gigantic global corporations. All of these forces appear to signify a future in which the language of advertising, popular culture, and consumer products become similar. Already English and a few other major tongues have emerged as global languages of commerce and communication. For many of the world’s peoples, learning one of these languages is viewed as the key to education, economic opportunity, and a better way of life.Only about 3,000 languages now in use are expected to survive the coming century. Are most of the rest doomed in the century after that?Whether most of these languages survive will probably depend on how strongly cultural groups wish to keep their identity alive through a native language. To do so will require an emphasis on bilingualism（mastery of two languages）. Bilingual speakers could use their own language in smaller spheres---at home, among friends, in community settings---and a global language at work, in dealings with government, and in commercial spheres. In this way, manysmall languages could sustain their cultural and linguistic integrity alongside global languages, rather than yield to the homogenizing（同化的）forces of globalization.Ironically, the trend of technological innovation that has threatened minority languages could also help save them. For example, some experts predict that computer software translation tools will one day permit minority language speakers to browse the Internet using their native tongues. Linguists are currently using computer—aided learning tools to teach a variety of threatened languages.For many endangered languages, the line between revival and death is extremely thin. Language is remarkably resilient（有活力的）,however. It is not just a tool for communicating, but also a powerful way of separating different groups, or of demonstrating group identity. Many indigenous（原生的，土著的）communities have shown that it is possible to live in the modern world while reclaiming their unique identities through language.41.Minority languages can be best preserved in __________.A．an increasingly interconnected worldB．maintaining small numbers of speakersC．relatively isolated language communitiesD．following the tradition of the 20th century42.According to Paragraph 2, that the world can maintain its linguistic diversity in the future is _______.A．uncertain B．unrealistic C．foreseeable D．definite43.According to the author, bilingualism can help_________.A．small languages become acceptable in work placesB．homogenize the world’s languages and culturesC．global languages reach home and community settingsD．speakers maintain their linguistic and cultural identityputer technology is helpful for preserving minority languages in that it_________.A．makes learning a global language unnecessaryB．facilitates the learning and using of those languagesC．raises public awareness of saving those languagesD．makes it easier for linguists to study those languages45.In the author’s view, many endangered languages are________.A．remarkably well-kept in this modern worldB．exceptionally powerful tools of communicationC．quite possible to be revived instead of dying outD．a unique way of bringing different groups togetherPassage TwoEveryone，it seems，has a health problem。

DA.Busy people have nothing to do at home.B.High achievers don’t care about their families.C.There is no friendship and warmth at home.D. A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.4. We can infer from the passage that those who do not work _____. AA.are likely to live a shorter lifeB.will lose everything at homeC.can live as long as those who workD.have more time to make new friends5. The best title for this passage may be _____. BA.People Should Find a JobB.Working Hard Is Good for HealthC.People Should Make More Friends by WorkD.The Loss of Word Means the Loss of EverythingPassage 2A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture t han is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history cours es concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information a bout the daily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art. (78) In shor t, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history b ooks.In history books, objective information about the political life of a coun try is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主观的): it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first t ruly “political” artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, h e criticized the Spanish government for its abuse (滥用) of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundre ds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn’t re ad, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church wal ls. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues (雕像) are not holy.6. More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than ge neral history because ___. CA. art history shows us nothing but the political valuesB. general history only focuses on politicsC. art history gives us an insight (洞察力) into the essential qualities o f a time and a placeD. general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psycholog y7. Art is subjective in that _____. AA. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through itB. it only ref lects people’s anger or sadness about social problemsC. it can easily arouse people’s anger about their governmentD. artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society8. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? CA. In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B. Francisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808C. In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on pala ces or other building.D. For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.9 The passage mainly discusses _____. BA. the development of art historyB. he difference between general history and art historyC. what we can learn from artD. the influence of artists on art history10. It can be concluded from the passage that _____. CA. Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in thei r paintingsB. it is more difficult to study art history than general historyC. a history teacher must be quite objectiveD. artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their politica l beliefsPassage 3Bl ind people can “see” things by using other parts of their bodies. This fact may help us to understand our feelings about color. If blind people can se nse color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciousl y(无意识地)。

National Car Rental wanted to have 2,500 square meters of dirt paved 38 the cars could be on site 39 the airport opened, and the official opening was only ten days away! 40 other local paving company wanted to do the job, 41 it couldn’t be done in such a short time.“Because we were new and really needed the work, we were 42 to try harder. We gave National Car Rental our offer and 43 our best effort to get the job finished within ten days. We also 44 them that if we failed, they would be no worse off, 45 they had plenty to gain if we succeeded.“We got the job and immediately went into 46 . Working at night needed lights, so I renteda machine to produce electricity for the site. Our 47 challenge was to keep the rock mixture48 enough. All the available water wagons (洒水车) were rented out for the airport construction, and we certainly couldn’t afford to buy a new one. 49 , I got a special 50 to rent fire engine hoses (消防水龙带) and connect them to nearby hydrants (消防栓); then I 51 held one of those hoses to 52 down the rock.“Those ten days were filled with challenges that 53 one creative idea after another. Nine days later, the night before the airport opened, National Car Rental was the 54 company that had cars on the parking lot.“The key to our success was having the 55 to take on any job and then being creative in our approach to getting it done.”36.

Her friend, Kate, found this article and sent it to her.56. Which part of the text gives you information on how to lock up your bicycle when you leaveit?A. Locks.B. Marking.C. Registration.D. Basic Security.57. The underlined phrase “act as a deterrent to a thief” means ______.A. help you recognize your bikeB. help the police find your bicycleC. stop someone stealing your bicycleD. stop you worrying about your bike58. The article advises you to keep a record of your bicycle _______.A. in the bike shop and your computerB. in the police station and a security companyC. in a security company and your universityD. by yourself and in a security company59. The main purpose of this article is _________.A. to tell you what to do if your bicycle is stolenB. to suggest ways of keeping your bicycle safeC. to give you advice on where to buy a good lockD. to say why you shouldn’t keep your bicycle in a quiet placeBProfessor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact (互动) these days. The term is “networked individualism”. This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals (个体) and be networked at the same time? Y ou need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to- person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that’s a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated (孤立) us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected —helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other people —at the same time!60. The underlined phrase “networked individualism”probably means that by using computerspeople ________.A. stick to their own ways no matter what other people sayB. have the rights and freedom to do things of their own interestC. do things in their own ways and express opinions different from other peopleD. are able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people61. According to the Pew study, what do many people rely on to make major life decisions?A. Networks.B. Friends.C. Phones.D. Parents.62. It can be inferred from the Pew study that _______.A. people have been separated from each other by using computersB. the Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonelyC. the Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communicationD. a lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing63. Which would be the best title for this passage?A. We’re Alone on the Internet.B. We’re Communicating on the Internet.C. We’re Alone Together on the Internet.D. We’re in the Imaginary World of the Internet.CExperience the newly opened Grand Canyon (大峡谷) West Skywalk in Colorado.

Walk on air for 70 feet over the edge of Grand Canyon West.This Skywalk has been open since March 28, 2007. Daily visitorship to the Skywalk has been over 4,000 people.

South Rim→West Airport→Eagle Point→West Airport→Guano Point→South RimDThinking◆Some scientists claim that we humans are the only living things that are conscious(有意识的) —we alone are aware that we are thinking.◆No one knows how consciousness works —it is one of science’s last greatmysteries.◆All your thoughts take place in the cerebrum (大脑皮质), which is at the top ofyour brain, and different kinds of thought are linked to different areas, calledassociation areas.◆Each half of the cerebrum has four rounded ends called lobes (脑叶) —two at thefront (frontal and temporal lobes) and two at the back (occipital and parietal lobes).◆The frontal lobe is linked to your personality and it is where you have your brightideas.◆The temporal lobe is where you hear and understand what people say to you.◆The occipital lobe is where you work out what your eyes see.◆The parietal lobe is where you record touch, heat and cold, and pain.◆The left half of the brain controls the right side of the body. The right half controlsthe left side.◆One half of the brain is always dominant (in charge). Usually, the left brain isdominant, which is why 90% of people are right-handed.68.

My mom was one of those people.My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love. Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, “Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it.”At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her. A year later, I returned to school—walking on my own!When the Great Depression (大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra $2 for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽车旅馆) for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mother’s words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world —Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1,759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $ 1 billion a year.Y ou may not have started out life in the best situation. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.71. What Kemmons’ mom often told him during his childhood was ______.A. caringB. movingC. encouragingD. interesting72. According to the author, who played the most important role in making him walk back to schoolagain?A. Doctors.B. Nurses.C. Friends.D. Mom.73. What caused Kemmons to start a motel by himself?A.

2007年成人学位英语试题

2007Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension（30 minutes 30%）Directions: In this part there are four reading passages. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You are required to choose the best answer from the four choices. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage.I heard many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. (86) Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching at one another’s hands of reassurance.The claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up huddled round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and –such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoons(茧) and entered a larger one.(87) It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or t\her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-with the only kind of popularity that really counts.16. In the passage, the author wants to tell .A. readers how to be popular with people aroundB. people how to understand and respect each otherC. parents how to control and guide their childrenD. teenagers how to learn to decide things for themselves17. According to the author, many teenagers think they are brave enough to act on their own, but, in fact, most of them .A. are too young to do soB. are much afraid of getting lostC. dare not cope with problems single-handedD. have much difficulty understanding each other18. Which of the following is NOT true?A. There is no popularity that really counts.B. It is not necessarily bad for a teenager to disagree with his or her classmates.C. What many parents are doing is in fact hindering their children from finding their own paths.D. Most teenagers claim that they want to do what they like to , but they are actually doing the same.19. What does the author think of advertisement?A. ConvincingB. InfluentialC. InstructiveD. Authoritative20. During the teenage years, one should learn to .A. find one’s real selfB. get into the right reason and become popularC. differ from others in as many ways as possibleD. rebel against parents and the popularity waveQuestions 21-25 are based on the following passage.In order to learn a foreign language well, it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is communication, the mistakes are secondary consideration that may be dealt with gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases. On the other hand, students should not ignore their mistakes. (88) The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them. For example, a Spanish speaker who has been saying“I do it”to express willingness to do something in the immediate future, could, by interacting with native speakers of English, observe that native speakers actually say “I’ll do it. ”The resulting discrepancy(差异) can serve as a basis for the student to modify his way of using the present tense in English. But a student who is unwilling to interact in the first place would lose this opportunity to learn by trial and error.21. According to the passage, foreign language students should not worry too much about making mistakes because .A. native speakers will ignore their mistakesB. communication is the primary goal of language learningC. native speakers like foreign students who try to learn their languageD. everyone makes mistakes when trying to communicate in a strange language22. The passage indicates that the present tense in English is .A. basically the same in English as it is in SpanishB. not the most difficult problem for foreign studentsC. not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate futureD. used with some verbs but not with others to express future intention23. The author thinks that language learners can reduce the number of their mistakes by .A. asking native speakers for explanationsB. reading good books in the foreign languageC. speaking without regard to native speakersD. comparing their speech with that of native speakers24. The passage implies that foreign students who do not interact with native speakers will not .A. have to worry about making mistakesB. learn very much about the foreign cultureC. learn about the history of the foreign languageD. take advantage of available language models25. The author’s major conclusion about the function of mistakes in foreign language learning is that .A. mistakes do not interfere with communicationB. learners are often very afraid of making mistakesC. mistakes are not important in the process of learning a languageD. making mistakes can help the learner discover the rules of the languageQuestions 23-30 are based on the following passage.During a state of deep relaxation, several physiological changes take place in the body: the body’s oxygen consumption is reduced; the heart beat decreases; muscle tension and sweating ease, and there is decreased sympathetic(交感的) nervous system activity. This restful state not only allows the body to repair and restore itself, but it has a calming effect on the consciousness.How to achieve this state of relaxation, however, is a matter of opinion, and in some medical circles, a matter of controversy. A recent report by Dr. David Holmes of the University of Kansas in the journal American Psychologist said that simple sitting in an armchair has just as many beneficial characteristics for the body as meditation（冥想）does. Researchers of other relaxation techniques disagree. These experts believe that more structured techniques, such as meditation, lead to a condition of deep relaxation.(89) The debate goes on, but one thing appears to be clear: the relaxation response can be reached by a number of methods, and the methods themselves are not as important as getting there. One day, one method may work best; on another day, an alternative method may be more appropriate, Once you are aware of all the methods, you can find the one that works best for you.Some of the relaxation techniques are meditation, autoanalysis (自我心理分析) and progressive muscle relaxation response than just sitting quietly in a chair, they have the added benefit of structure and discipline, and for these reasons appear to be more effective for most individuals.26. The passage indicates that a state of deep relaxation is not only good for one’s body, but also beneficial to .A. heart beatB. consciousnessC. muscle tensionD. sympathetic nervous system27. People seem to agree that .A. sitting in an armchair benefits a person as meditation doesB. what people are struggling for is s state of deep relaxationC. to achieve a state of deep relaxation is possible through various meansD. structured consciousness relaxation techniques are more beneficial for a person28. In the third paragraph, the phrase“getting there”most probably means .A. arriving at one’s destinationB. getting what one wants mostC. reaching a state of deep relaxationD. finding out a suitable relaxation technique29. As far as relaxation is concerned, the author indicates that .A. aims are more important than aimsB. means are more important than aimsC. some relaxation techniques are better than othersD. more and more people are interested in relaxation techniques30. The author’s attitude toward relaxation is best described as .A. criticalB. objectiveC. optimisticD. subjectiveQuestions 31-35 are based on the following passage.I am not a computer expert. I never learned much in the way of math. And I am quite puzzled by things like engineering or electronics.Then why am I able to write about computers? I can write on this subject because of these shortcomings. The last two years of learning has been a severe test for me. By hard work I have managed to learn enough to use computers well, and to work with people who know a great deal more than I. Since I have learned all this at such personal cost, I would like to share my knowledge with others.The best way to learn is to take a course. However, many people do not have the time for this. They will have to find some other way to get basic information. I hope to be able to help them by writing about some of the things I have learned myself.I have a home computer on which I have learned in my own time. I have used it like a home study course. I have sat down with it day after day, night after night, I have forced it to give up some of its secrets. Now I can use it to do some of the work that I get paid for. And I can do this work in my own home, instead of in an office. Many people may soon be working on a computer at home, just as many now take in other people’s typing.Some things about computers are easier than you may fear. First, computers are logical. Things that at first seem difficult will make sense to you after you learn the rules. Second, it is really not hard to learn enough to use today’s machines. You do not need to be a great brain. But you do have to learn to think in new. And you do have to keep a good bit of information in your head. (90) Finally, there are many people around who are really enthusiastic about computers. These people are always happy to be of help.A. difficultB. puzzling D. secret32. It can be inferred that the author had to in order to write about computers.A. learn electronicsB. study very hardC. learn from other peopleD. take a home study course33. The phrase“a great brain”in the last paragraph most probably means .A. a great manB. a person with a big headC. a remarkable successD. an intelligent personB. has known a lot of things about computersC. has got enough knowledge about science and mathD. has known more about computers than her colleagues35. The main idea of the last paragraph is that to learn to use a computer .A. must take enough courseB. should be with a clever brainC. is not so difficult as one thinksD. is hard to think in new waysPartⅢVocabulary and Structure(20 minutes 15％)Directions：In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.

学位英语历年真题带答案07-04

成人本科学位英语统一考试（A卷）07年04月21日Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.(76) I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer’ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer”.The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? (77 ) I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1. The passage is meant to ______.A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career2. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B. A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D. The chances for writer to become successful are small3. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He wasn’t able to produce a single book.B. He hadn’t seen aching for the better.C. He wasn’t able to have a rest for a who le year.D. He though that he lacked imagination.4. “…people who die wondering: What if ?”(Lin4-5, Para-3) refers to “those _____”.A. who think too much of the dark side of lifeB. who regret giving up their career halfwayC. who think a lot without making a decisionD. who are full of imagination even upon death5. “Shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _____.A. the wonderland on often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reachedD. a world that exists only in one’s imaginationPassage 2uestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Toady, experts believe that nearly two-thirds of the world’s population live within eighty kilometers of the seacoast.(78)In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs in the future.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and g as explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, copper and so on exist on the ocean floor.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. For example, warm temperature of the ocean can be used as the steam in a steamship. Sea may also offer a source of energy as electricity for mankind.Technology is enabling man to explore even deeper under the sea. It is obvious that the technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. (79) By the 2050, experts believe that the problems to explore the food, minerals and energy resources of the sea will have been largel7y solved.6. What is the beat title for the passage?A. Needs of Man.B. Sea Harvest and FoodC. Sea and Sources of EnergyD. Sea Exploring Technology.7. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. man hasn’t completely made use of the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC. harvesting rice in the sea will be made possibleD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor8. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ships.C. To argue that man should use steamships.D. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.9. According to the author, technology is important because ______.A. resources on land are running short in ten yearsB. man can use it to explore the deeper seaC. it is a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used it to explore the sea10. According to the author, when will the problems to explore the deeper sea largely be solved?A. In the next generation.B. By the end of the 20th century.C. In the near future.D. By the middle of the 21st century.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit. About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly. It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women. Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’s smoking habit. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.(80)There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11. What do we know from the first paragraph ?A. More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B. There are more smoking women than smoking men in USA.C. It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D. The U.S. has more smoking people than any other country.12.What factors determine a person’s smoking habits ?A. Age, income and education.B. Age, sex and income.C. Occupation, income and sex.D. Occupation, income and education.13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?A. City people are less likely to smoke.B. People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C. Men with higher income tend to smoke.D. Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.14.What is the smoking situation for women ?A. The situation is quite the same for women as for men .B. Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C. There are more women smokers with low incomes.D. Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ?A. The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B. The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C. High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D. Farmers’ children tend to smoke more.Part ⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D .
