Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letterThe dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal and a slave to Williams. From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him 公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities.When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur“Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning, Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams' dailypossessed a large soft mouth specially evolved for the safe carrying of hunted creatures, so the paper and the tobacco cameWilliams was a railwayman, an engine driver, and he worea blue uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams' slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow andice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not untilhe got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However,two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William's hand.

There are different forms of colour blindness. A man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades ofgreen. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything a stranin shades of green—In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully. For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal toeach other. A green light may mean “Advance” and a red light may mean “Danger!

In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, These help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colours.There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside. Look round you and try toBirds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colours. As far as we know, bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs cannot seemay seem grey and dull to us, but to insects they may appear beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see.

To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears,dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fearThere are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, c., do not exist;and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, 公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics.

For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (1 to 5) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heartdisease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be passive smokers without realising it.Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost likea tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements stit is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great open air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better off if smoking were banned altogether.Smoking can provide constant consolation.

We can see from the picture that a girl is playing happily on her tired father`s back under the cruel sunlight. I think this phenomenon is associated with family`s education.

And now, the ban has extended to several suburbs, including Mentougou, Fangs- han, Tongzhou, Shunyi, Daxing, Pinggu and Miyun.The barbecue ban was announced to reduce Beijing' s air pollution, as barbecue has long been accused as one of the major contributors to haze.According to Wang Yuesi, a researcher from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Chinese Academy of Sciences, barbecuing can generate a lot of PM 2.5, harmful airborne particles measur- ing less than 2.5 microns in diameter."Considering the seriousness of the air pollution in Beijing, we have to ban everything that may do harm to our environment!" Wang said.The issue has divided Chinese netizens, as half agreed with the policy while the other half called this grand plan nothing but "empty talk.

She was talking to her boyfriend on her mobile phone, but suddenly went silent.After the boyfriend failed to get a response in a prolonged period of time, he rushed to Zhao' s home. It was already too late, as the phone had clearly exploded in her hands, and her entire chest had been burned.This piece of news draws public attention to the using safety of electronic devices, especially the most commonly used mobile phone, and provides information that will be of great value in as sessing the safety of cell phone use.Liang Guangchuan, a researcher from Hebei University of Technology, says the tragedy could be caused by a faulty charger and electric leakage of the lithium battery.

Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letterThe dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal and a slave to Williams. From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him 公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities.When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur“Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet.

He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams' slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow andice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not untilhe got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However,two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William's hand.

Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything a stranin shades of green—In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully.

To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears,dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once.

Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heartdisease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be passive smokers without realising it.Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost likea tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.公共英语3级(PET3)模拟试题The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements stit is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great open air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better off if smoking were banned altogether.Smoking can provide constant consolation.

My name is... and this is my colleague... He/She is just going to be listening to us.And your names are... and... ?Would you tell me your candidate numbers so I can check them,please?Thank you.(Hand over the mark sheets to the assessor. )First of all we’d like to know something about you,Candidate A,so I’m going to ask you some questions.The ideal jobWhat job do you think is best for you after you graduate?What’s your most consideration when looking for a job?Where would you like to work after you graduate, in a big city or in a small town?What factors influence you most in your choice of a job?Some people would rather not work if they can’t find the ideal job. What’s your opinion of this?Why does our government encourage young people to leave home and work in less developed areas?Do you have any work experience? (If yes) Would you tell us something about it?(If not) Why not?How would you prepare for a job interview?Do you think it is desirable to have a job in the same city where your parents live?Give your reasons, please.正确答案：E First of all we’d like to know something about you,Candidate A, so I’m going to ask you some questions.E What job do you think is best for you after you graduate?A In the past three years of my college life I have never ceased to think what kind of work I shall take up upon graduation. Although my ideas are not consistent, I have now decided on a college teacher as my lifelong career. A number of reasons have led me to choose this occupation. Firstly, teaching is learning. Secondly, teaching means freedom and independence. As a teacher, I’m free to use my own ideas and make my own decisions. Finally, I like teaching because it offers a certain peace of mind. No more rush to catch a morning bus, no more anxiety to please a boss, no more worries about your paycheck which is steady, if not handsome.E What’s your most consideration when looking for a job?A Work can keep me alert, growing, and helps me to maintain my dignity. Therefore, the biggest consideration for a job is to know whether the job is promising and full of challenges. If the job is not promising and there is no challenge in the job, I won’t choose it no matter what high rank it is. In my opinion, at the beginning of my job, I should learn from my colleagues. After that I want to play an important role in my department or company, I mean, I want to contribute to my company by my valuable work. Maybe I will be a bit tired, but I like the challenges.E Where would you like to work after you graduate, in a big city or in a small town? A I’d like to work in the city. There are many challenges in a big city. We can find a good job. I think that working in the city may have more pleasant working environment than in the country. Working in a big city may offer us moretime to enjoy ourselves, for example, after work, we may go to the pub, or a concert, or we may go to see an interesting film. While in a small town, we can not be satisfied. The other reason why I like working in a big city is that we may have more chances to find the right job if we are not satisfied with the present one, while in a small town, we have fewer chances. Finally, I like the big cities’ quick pace, and they are full of challenges. E What factors influence you most in your choice of a job?A I’d like to choose a job in which there are challenges and competition. Challenges and competition make me creative. They are the production of the development of society and they give me a sense of the pursuit of excellence. It is my inborn nature. Nothing can stop me from bringing my intelligence into full play. Certainly, I also take income and other factors into consideration, but challenges and competition are the most important factors in my opinion. Otherwise my life will be humdrum by keeping idle in my work.E Thank you. Now we’d like to know something about you, Candidate B, so I’m going to ask you some questions.E Some people would rather not work if they can’t find the ideal job. What’s your opinion of this?B I’d rather find temporary work if I can’t find the ideal job. Firstly, in fact my ideas are not very consistent, because I’m afraid that my ideal job is not for me in practice. In temporary jobs, maybe I can gradually find the most suitable job for me,and I’ll change my job after that. In fact, I don’t think it’s very easy to find my ideal job after graduation, because I haven’t rich work experience. I’d like to enrich my experience and progress myself through temporary jobs. It’s helpful to my ideal job-hunting.E Why does our government encourage young people to leave home and work in less developed areas?B The development of the less developed areas is critical to China’s overall economic rise. What’s more, it’s the only way to decrease the imbalance of economic development in China. During the development of an area, the amount of the persons with ability is very important. Nowadays, most of our young people have at least a bachelor’s degree. They have a great deal of knowledge which is of great help to the construction of these less developed areas. Besides, leaving home can make young people more self-dependent.E Do you have any work experience? (If yes) Would you tell us something about it? (If not) Why not?B Yes, I have rich work experience. I used to be the tutor of several girls and boys. Tutoring was my first part-time job, through which I learned how to get along with children, adults and old men. Last year I had a part-time job in a website corporation. I was the manager of the information department. So I learned how to manage, how to cooperate with other persons. Now I’m working in a foreign bank, in which I can learn some academic knowledge. I think by these part-time jobs, I got rich experience. I believe it’s helpful to my job-hunting.E How would you prepare for a job interview?B A job interview is very important for both interviewer and interviewee, especially the latter. In a job interview, the two parties can know each other. To prepare for a job interview, you have several things to do. Firstly, you should read some books on interviewing. In these books, there is a great deal of valuable information you can use for reference, such as the questions often asked by the interviewer. Secondly, you must acquaint yourself with the company which will interview you.You can visit the company’s website to know the history, the departments, and the system of it. Finally, you must be formallydressed when you go to an interview. In general, you should prepare for your job interview, otherwise, you can’t even pass the first run of the interview.E Do you think it is desirable to have a job in the same city where your parents live? Give your reasons, please.B Yes, I think it is desirable to have a job in the same city where my parents live. The most important reason is that I can look after my parents. I take this into consideration because I am their only child and they are now weak and getting on in age. I’ve the responsibility to look after them. If I live in the same city with them, I can visit them very often and help them whenever it is necessary. I think they will be very happy to live near me. It’s helpful to their health.考生相互问答2．Interlocutor:Now,I’d like you to talk about something for about 3 minutes. I’m just going to listen. I’d like you to discuss about the most common means of communication.Talk to each other about it. It is not necessary to agree with each other. You have only about 3 minutes for this.Candidates: (approximately 3 minutes) Interlocutor:Thank you. (Retrieve picture sheet. )正确答案：E Now, I’d like you to talk about something for about 3 minutes. I’m just going to listen. I’d like you to discuss about the most common means of communication.A I think the most common means of communication for our students is the telephone. Nowadays almost every dorm owns one telephone. It’s so quick and convenient to talk with our friends on the phone, especially when you have something urgent to tell them.B Well, partly I agree with you. I think if my friends are in the same city, I’ll choose the telephone as the best means of communication. But if they are in other cities, other provinces or even other countries, I can’t afford it. It’s so expensive. In this matter, I’d choose letter writing as the best means. As long as I have time I’d rather write to my friend. Sometimes I just think telephones make people lazy and lengthens the distance between people.A Yes, I agree with you. Furthermore, there is another cheap and convenient means of communication. It’s e-mail. With the popularity of computers, more and more people are now starting to send e-mails to each other, especially on university and college campuses.B But not every student can afford to buy a computer and knows how to send and receive e-mails. As far as my class is concerned, most students write letters to communicate with friends. Everyday I see a large pile of letters sent to my class from different places. Sometimes you see students using telephones but most of them are talking on the phone with their friends who just live in the same city or in the same school.A I don’t think there are any students in our university who do not know how to send and receive e-mails.B I think sometimes if a student wants to send and check e-mails, he must go to the computer center. It’s really not convenient. But for telephone calls, it is very convenient, if we use IP and 193 cards. The students I know use the telephone more often. A Why did you say that telephones make people lazy and lengthen the distance between people?B Nowadays people are becoming too dependent on telephones. Even when they have time to write a letter, they prefer telephones. With the little magical implement at hand,it isn’t difficult for a man to find an excuse for not writing letters and feel at ease. Telephones are making people lazy. When a person writes, he must organize his mind, express his ideas and think more logically. People not only greet each other but also exchange thoughts by letters. From this viewpoint, telephone lengthens the distance between people.B How do you usually keep in touch with your friends?A I usually keep in touch with my friends by e-mail. It’s a very quick, cheap and convenient means of communication for me. I have my own computer, and the internet is free in my university. I need not pay anything for the e-mails. Most of my friends have their own computers too. I used to use telephones very often, but it’s really so expensive if I talked with them on the phone. Most of my friends are in other cities, provinces or even other countries. Occasionally, I write letters to some friends, but not very often. I think writing and reading letters is quite a pleasant thing. But most often, I keep in touch with my friends by e-mail.A Which way of corresponding do you think will be most popular in the near future? B I think corresponding through sending e-mails will be the most popular way in the near future. With the popularity of computers, more and more people are now starting to send e-mails to each other. The pace of modern society is faster and faster, and writing letters is no longer a good way to communicate. Although the telephone is a quick and convenient means of communication, it’s so expensive especially for long-distance phone calls. It’s cheaper to send e-mails than to talk on the telephone.B Do you think letters will eventually be replaced by e-mail or fax? Please give your reasons.A I don’t think letters will eventually be replaced by e-mail or fax. E-mail and fax are just becoming more and more popular in our modern society. However it’s not a traditional way to communicate. There are still some people who will prefer writing letters to their friends in the future. They think that writing down their thoughts on some beautiful paper and writing by pen instead of by keyboard are really very pleasant things. In addition, not every person has a computer or a fax machine. They have to write letters instead of sending e-mails. Finally, I think writing letters can promote people’s writing ability. So, letters will never be replaced by e-mail or fax.A What do you think is the most efficient way for people to keep in touch with each other and why do you think so?B Nowadays more and more households in China own at least one telephone, through which people can easily talk to each other. We can make phone calls whenever and wherever we want to. So I think telephone calls are the most efficient way for people to keep in touch with each other, especially when you have something urgent to tell somebody. It’s quicker than writing letters, and more convenient than e-mails.继续性问答3．Interlocutor:Now,I’d like each of you to talk on your own for about one and a half minutes.

I’m going to give each of you a different picture and I’d like you to talk about it. Candidate A,here is your picture. Please let Candidate B have a look at it.A Everybody likes week-long holidays. Now in China, there are three week-long holidays, Spring Festival, May Day and National Day. Week-long holidays have a lot of advantages. As the saying goes, “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. “ In these holidays, we have more time to relax. We can travel. There are so many wonderful places in China. You can go to Huang Shan to climb the mountain and enjoy the beautiful scenery. It’s really a good way to visit. If we don’t like traveling, we can stay at home to do anything we like. You can get up late in the morning, and have a good sleep; you can play chess with your family after lunch; you can listen to a favorite record or jog in a park on late afternoons. Your time is always at your own disposal. Also, you can visit your friends. Friendship is very important in everyone’s life. Maybe you are too busy to communicate with your good friends for a long time, so you can visit them in the week-long holiday. In addition, a week-long holiday is a golden time to enjoy reading, because we don’t have to worry about any disturbance. In a word, it’s so exciting to have a week-long holiday.E Thank you. Candidate B, is there anything else you would like to say about this picture?B I’m always expecting a week-long holidays such as Spring Festival, May Day and National Day. In these holidays, I have more time to study, and I think it is very important to me —a university student. This term I have seven subjects, every day I have at least six classes, and I have only three nights every week to go to the library. It’s not enough to review the knowledge taught in class. So in week-long holidays, I have time to review my lessons. Secondly, a week-long holiday is a good time for me to learn English. I can watch some English movies to practice my listening. Also I can practice my reading, speaking and writing. In addition, I can visit some museums, art galleries, exhibitions, etc. , through which my horizons can be broadened. I like week-long holidays, and expect to study freely in these holidays.E Candidate B,here is your card. Please let Candidate A have a look at it. (Hand over the picture to Candidate B.)I’d like you to describe the picture and also tell us how you feel about the two pictures. Remember you have only about one and a half minutes for this.B From my point of view, week-long holidays have a lot of disadvantages. Most students play too much, and their minds keep idle in these holidays. The negative effects outweigh the positiveeffects. Firstly, although there will be more time that can be disposed by ourselves in the holidays, we have less time to study actually. For example, you may get up late and sit in front of the computer playing games or visiting some useless websites just for fun. Secondly, since you play too much, you tend to forget what has been learned, especially English. English needs to be practiced very often. Finally, if you go on an outing, traveling, or playing until midnight every day in your holiday, you will be exhausted after a week-long holiday. Maybe when you begin your study and work, you would be tired.E Thank you. Candidate A, is there anything you would like to say about this picture? A As for a university or college student, there are so many disadvantages to having a week-long holiday. It puts pressure on students who are financially disadvantaged. They maybe have no money for traveling, so they have to ask their parents for money. Usually the expenditure of traveling is very large, so it will make their parents’ burden heavier. What’s more, they maybe have no money to eat out. So, while, most of their classmates and roommates go out to travel or eat, but they have to stay in the dormitory. So, they will have a strong feeling of loneliness. In general, poor students won’t have a good time in the week-long holidays.。

The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities.When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning, Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams' daily paper butsoft mouth specially evolved for the safe carrying of huntedcreatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, neverWilliams was a railwayman, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams' slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previouslyA curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William's hand.

There are different forms of colour blindness. A man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully. For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal to each other. A green light may mean “Advance” and a red light may mean “Danger! Keep back!”, You can see what will happen ifsomebody thinks that red is green! Colour blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, These help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference between colours. There are also millions of “rods” but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside. Look round you and try to seeBirds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colours. As far as we know, bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs cannot see colours asseem grey and dull to us, but to insects they may appear beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see.

It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolicverbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think,rously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fearThere are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches,instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them.

Markyour answers on your ANSWER SHEET.If you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even these few people might be passive smokers without realising it.Tobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.The advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements alwaysmanly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associatedwith the great open air life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.Of course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be much better off if smoking were banned altogether.Smoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seem to get right. After a day's hard work, the thing I want to do most is smoking. It can be even better with a cup of coffee. It's so enjoyable and relaxing that it relieves stresses of every day life. So why botherNow match each of the people (1 to 5) to the appropriate61. Hadley C63.65.

It wasn’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there — moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor.I would have a lifetime of security is I struck with it. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss’s office. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk,” I began awkwardly. “I came to the Globe when I was twenty-four. Now I’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I’m resigning.”“To another paper?” he asked.I reached into my coat pocket, but didn’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new media pany. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly engaged in the change. “I’m glad for you,” he said, quite out of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world,” he concluded. “And if it doesn’t work out, remember, your star is always high here.”Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody — even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe.

At British hardware chain B&Q,its"elder worker"stores in Manchester and Exmouth were18percent more profitable than its regular outlets—due in part,the company says,to six times less employee turnover and60percent less shoplifting and breakage.1.Jeeba's difference from a conventional company mainly lies in______.A the age of its employeesB the number of its ownersC the quality of its productsD the scope of its operations2.In the developed world,compared with young people,the elderly______.A are better at businessB are greater in numberC have healthier lifestylesD have more job opportunities3.According to the writer,m the current situation companies are faced with the tough task of______.A creating good positionsB employing retired workersC filling vacant positionsD replacing unskilled workers4.For future prosperity,many European countries will have to______.A increase the number of young workersB offer many senior-friendly jobsC improve services for seniorsD raise their retirement ages5.B&Q's"elder worker"stores are mentioned to show that the employment of older workers______.A does not reduce a company's competitivenessB does not affect older workers"lifestyle choicesC is not a usual practice among competitive firmsD is not good news to those who are eager to retireText2Here's how I want to watch the2014Winter Olympics.I want to go to a Web site to see any event I want,whenever I want to watch it,on whatever screen I choose. I"ll gladly pay.The technology exists to make this happen today.Yet nearly two decades after the introduction of the World Wide Web,this remains a fantasy.NBC,which broadcasted the Vancouver Olympics in the United States,wouldn"t put videos on its Web site until they had been shown on prime-time TV.So Americans had the weird experience of learning from a news report during the day that something fantastic hadjust happened,and then having to wait until that night's broadcast to see it.Bloggers complained,but NBC wouldn"t give way.Its research shows that people like me,who want to watch the Olympics online,represent only7percent of the total audience.The other,bigger concern is:the Internet doesn"t deliver any money.Advertisers remain willing to pay big money to show their commercials on prime-time TV.But on the Internet?Not so much.So NBC clings to the old way of doing things.As it sees it,the prime-time show is the most important.To make matters worse,NBC was already expecting to lose $250million on the2010Vancouver Games.Good luck persuading it to invest in a risky Web project.It's easy to blame the network executives.But the NBC guys and their like are only doing what makes sense.They"re going where the money is.That needs to change.Yes,selling reporting of Olympic events over the Internet would drain away some of the prime-time audience,but my sense is many of the online subscribers would still watch the prime-time show.And over time,the subscription dollars could become a substantial revenue stream.Instead of viewing the Internet as a threat to prime time,the TV networks should see the Web as a way to sell even more of their product to a small but passionate subset of their audience.I"m hoping that by2014,that will have changed.1.According to the writer,watching the Olympics online as one likes______.A is technologically impossibleB is still denied to the audienceC has been a dream for20yearsD will no longer be free in20142.We learn that what Americans saw about the Vancouver Olympics______.A was unavailable onlineB differed from the newsC seemed weird to themD was first shown on TV3.Bloggers complained about NBC's______.A neglect of those in the minorityB excessive online advertisementsC delay in providing videos onlineD limited reporting on sports news4.After the2010Vancouver Games,NBC is likely to______.A improve its prime-time showB continue its current practiceC raise its price for advertisingD try its luck in a web program5.The writer thinks the TV networks should view the Web as a potential to help them to______.A make dramatic profitsB develop new productsC satisfy their subscribersD divide prime-time revenuesText3One important thing during the pre-Christmas rush at our house was the arrival of my daughter's kindergarten report card.She got high praise for her reading, vocabulary and overall enthusiasm.On the other hand,we learnt that she has work to do on her numbers and facility with the computer,though the detailed handwritten report her teachers prepared is absent of any words that might be interpreted as negative in describing her efforts.A number system indicates how she's measuring up in each area without any mention of passing or failing.All of which seems to make my daughter's school neither fish nor fowl when it comes to the debate over the merits of giving formal grades to kids.At one level,the advantages and disadvantages are obvious.A grade system provides a straightforward standard by which to measure how your child is progressing at school—and how he or she is getting on compared to other children.But as writer Sue Ferguson notes, "Grades can deceive."The aim should be"to measure learning,not simply what a student can recall on a test."The two aren"t the same—and if you doubt that as an adult,ask yourself whether you could sit down without any preparation and still pass those high-school-level examinations.If you"re old enough,you've lived through this debate before.At one time,it was considered unfair to put children in direct competition with one another if it could be avoided.The intention behind that may have been good,but it ignored the fact that competition,and the will to come out on top,are essential components of the human condition.This time around,educators working with a no-grades approach are emphasizing different reasons.The thing is,that approach is much more commonplace in the adultworkplace than is the traditional pass-fail system we place on our children.Many workplaces conduct regular employee evaluations.There are usually fairly strict limits to what an employer can tell an employee in those evaluations—and even then, negative evaluations can be challenged by the employee.No matter where you sit in the debate over the grade system,then,the real question is this:if it's so good for kids, why isn"t that also true for adults?1.The school report indicates that the writer's daughter______.A lacks interest in her school workB ranks among the best at languageC has some trouble with her handwritingD needs to improve in math and computer skills2.We can learn that the girl's school tries to deliver the report______.A in a positive wayB in a scientific wayC in an attractive wayD in an enthusiastic way3.Sue Ferguson seems dissatisfied with the grade system for its focus on ______.A the process of getting the knowledgeB the capability of memorizing for the testC the procedure of measuring learningD the standard of comparing schools4.The writer would agree that cutting children off from competition is______.A fit for human developmentB fit for their age and experienceC against a key part of human natureD out of consideration for children5.It can be learned that today's educators supporting the no-grades approach insist that______.A kids be allowed to challenge the negative evaluationsB the traditional teacher-student relationship be changedC the evaluation system for kids be similar to that for adultsD strict rules be set up in evaluating school childrenPart BDirections:Read the texts from a magazine in which five people voice their different opinions in response to an article on the issue of praising.For questions61-65,match the name of each person(61-65)to one of the statements(A-G)given below.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1.Mike:Praise often and sincerely—it's as simple as that.Employees want to feel needed and appreciated.By offering sincere praise with examples about what they did right, you"ll go far in creating an energetic team.Meanwhile,I don"t agree with the assertion that"to focus on what needs improving isn"t good management."In fact,it's the balance of praise along with constructive criticism that drives employees to work smarter and reach higher.Frank:This article makes a valid point that needs to be understood,especially for thenew generation of workers,my generation.We don"t see ourselves as parts in the machine to be put in the dark to work.My generation needs respect in return from our employer,we need to feel appreciated beyond just a pay check,it's the difference between being fulfilled at our career and being sad at our job.Joyce:One skill missing in today's workplace is the ability to build effective business relationships.At the core of that relationship is the need for consistent feedback.

2018英语三级考试题与答案解析
2018英语三级考试题与答案解析2018成人学士学位英语考试试题I. Reading comprehensionPassage 1Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger (汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries.With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index (巨无霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) (76)No one claimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen a s one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization.1. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE.A. McDonald's was founded in 1948.B. McDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.C. McDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now.D. McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.2. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean ____.A. very crowdedB. very deanC. existing everywhereD. occurring frequently3. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that ____.A. McDonald’s designs its menu to suit the local peopleB. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald’sC. the McDonald’s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big MacD. the low prices McDonald’s bri ng tens of millions of people through its doors every day4. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's?A. They organized a strike.B. They protested outside a McDonald’s.C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald’s.D. They destroyed a McDonald’s under construction.5. In ____, an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on a McDonald’s restaurant in France.A. 1998B. 1999C. 2000D. 2001Passage 2Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory（印第安人保护区）that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员) in several sports, including baseball, running and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U. S Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon hasten track and field and filed events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to competein both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in bothevents. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.”Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”6. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ______.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden7. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT _____.A. fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing8. Jim Thorpe started to play sports _____.A. before he was nine years old.B. when he was 16 years oldC. when he was 24 years oldD. before his parents passed away9. The word decathlon in paragraph 3 probably means _______.A. jumpingB. five track and field eventsC. throwingD. ten track and field events10. Which of the flowing is NOT TRUE?A. In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B. Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C. Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D. In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.Passage 3It can be really frustrating(使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym andwork out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny”members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are , well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering(迎合) to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny”people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommended functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). (79)They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted(有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow innumbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it’s a step in the right direction.11. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______.A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that ___________.A. most large gym chains really want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC. regul ar gyms don’t accept overweight people to participate in their programsD. overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13. What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A. To achieve functional fitness.B. To build six-pack abs.C. To look like a fitness model.D. To be able to run long distances.14. As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. The machines are designed for larger people.B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C. There are larger mirrors on the walls.D. The training goals are more realistic.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Improving Women’s Self-confidence through ExercisesB.
