Passage 1 Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage: Spending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna(天线). But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will notlikely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. “What we showed is glucose (葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna,” said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. (76) The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals。

2014年5月北京地区成人学士学位英语统一考试真题及答案

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2014.05Part I Reading Comprehension 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten, usually begins between the ages of five and six.Among rich countries such a late start is very strange.President Obama believes itis an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is "morally wrong".This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families-a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime.Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.(76) Pre-school can help close this gap.So in a speech last month, Mr.Obama called for apartnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child.It later became known that "every" meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line--equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.(77) Some critics say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work.The evidence suggests otherwise.For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9-to-ll-year-olds in New Jersey.This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended pre-school had better literacy (读写能力), language, maths and science skills.And two years of pre-kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crimerates and other factors that may eventually burden society.Critics have singled out a governmentscheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school-based early education.第1题Kindergarten in rich countries other than America usually begins at the age of________A.eightB.sevenC.sixD.Four答案：D第2题According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Poor pre-school kids have a larger vocabulary than rich kids.B.President Obama believes that early education can solve all economic and social problems.C.Rich pre-school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.D.President Obama' s education secretary thinks it is morally wrong to let kids start kindergarten early.答案：C第3题Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?A.There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.B.New Jersey has created a new Head Start to help disadvantaged kids.C.Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.D.Two years of pre-kindergarten were better than one.答案：D第4题The phrase "single out" in the last paragraph means________A.chooseB.think aboutC.countD.depend on答案：A第5题Which of the following is an appropriate tire for this passage?A.Secondary EducationB.Pre-school EducationC.Poor Kids' EducationD.Rich Kids' Education答案：BHumans may not have landed on Mars (火星) just yet, but that isn't stopping a European company from devising a plan to send four people to the Red Planet within the next few years.(78) This project, called Mars One, aims to send a small group of people to Mars in 2022 and eventually establish a permanent colony on the planet."Everything we need to go to Mars exists," said Mars One co-founder Bas Lansdorp in March 2014."We have the rockets to send people to Mars, the equipment to land on Mars, the robots to prepare the settlement for humans.For a one-way mission, all the technology exists." Yet the four astronauts (宇航员) chosen for the trip will be stuck on Mars--forever.And despite Mars One' s thorough planning, there are a number of challenges that may prevent the mission from ever taking place.(79) The biggest road block could be the mission' s huge cost ($6billion).However,Lansdorp is confident that Mars One will be able to fund the projectby selling the broadcast rights for the mission and subsequent experiences living on the planet.Those broadcast rights will also play a part in helping to select the people who will be sent to nsdorp said the company will hold a selection process similar to a reality nsdorpis expecting at least 1 million applications from people around the world.In addition to the cost,several other potential problems could inhibit (阻止) the mission to Mars."It' s even more challenging to send people there with life support, with food, with air, with all the other things like books, entertainment, means of communication and means of providing for their own resources for a long stay on Mars," said Adam Baker, senior lecturer in space engineering at Kingston University in London."The sheer size of the rockets you' d need to do this would be absolutely colossal."第6题According to Project Mars One, humans could send four people to Mars within the next________years.A.SevenB. B.eightC. C.tenD. D.six答案：B第7题According to Bas Lansdorp, which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.For a one-way trip to Mars, all the technology exists.B.He could not come up with the fund for Mars One.C.We humans have the rockets to send people to Mars.D.We humans have the equipment to land on Mars.答案：B第8题According to the passage, all the following statements are TRUE EXCEPT that________A.a competition process will be held to select the four astronautsB.the cost of Mars One could go as much as $6 billionC.if it goes as planned, we could expect to watch Mars One on TVD.the four astronauts could return to Earth after a few years' stay on Mars答案：D第9题The word "colossal" in the last paragraph is closest in meaningto________A.very largeB.very smallC.mediumD.average答案：A第10题Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.Ready for a Round Trip to MarsB.Ready for a Short Visit to MarsC.Ready for a One-way Trip to MarsD.Ready for a Walk on Mars答案：CWhen the United States Congress created Yellowstone National Park in 1872, the goal was to set aside a place where Americans could enjoy the beauty of nature for years to come.Now, 142 years later, there are hundreds of national parks across the country, and technology is changing the way people experience them.Should park visitors be able to use cell phones, or should their use be restricted?"Connectivity presents a real challenge to all of us." A1 Nash says.He is a public affairs of ricer at Yellowstone National Park.He says cell phone service at Yellowstone is available in parts of the park with stores and campgrounds.This makes it easy for visitors to share photos of their trip on social networking sites and to stay in touch with friends and family members.(80) If a park visitor is hurt or in danger, cell phones make it easier to get help.Some say the ability to download applications that provide information about plants and animals in the park can enrich a visitor' s experience.Others say cell phones disturb people' s enjoyment of our national parks.In their view, cellphone towers are an eyesore, and they' d rather hear the sound of birds than the ring of an incoming call.Can you imagine looking out a peaceful lake or field of grass only to be disturbed by aperson shouting into their phone, "Can you hear me now?"Nash says Yellowstone tales to strike a balance."Ultimately, our job is to let visitors understand and enjoy nature better while protecting what people find special about Yellowstone, and one of those things that' s special is the ability to get away from the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of one' s daily life."第11题Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Which U.S.National Park Has the Most Visitors?B.Should National Parks Allow the Use of Cell Phones?C.What Did Yellowstone Do to Enrich Park Visitors' Experience?D.Can Technology Transform the Way People Experience Nature?答案：B第12题National parks were establishedA.to show respect to former presidentsB.to raise public awareness about climate changeC.to preserve areas of natural beautyD.to create job opportunities答案：C第13题According to the passage, which of the following statements about the cell phone service at Yellowstone is TRUE?A.It is limited to certain areas in the park.B.It is available everywhere in the park.C.It is not available in the park.D.It is available to visitors at a fee.答案：A第14题The word "eyesore" in the third paragraph probably meansA.something unpleasant to look atB.something harmful to healthC.beautiful sceneD.serious threat答案：A第15题What' s the position of Yellowstone on cell phone use?A.Supportive.B.Neutral.C.Negative.D.Doubtful.答案：BPart Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.第16题All the passengers________in the accident were sent to the nearby hospital in no time.A.to find injuredB.finding injuredC.to be found injuredD.found injured答案：D第17题The big fire lasted as long as 24 hours________it was brought under control.A.afterB.beforeC.sinceD.while答案：B第18题In this workshop, the output of July was three times________of January.A.thatB.thisC.oneD.it答案：A第19题Seeing her father come back,________A.tears ran down her cheeksB.her tears ran outC.she burst into tearsD.tears burst into her答案：C第20题________singer and________dancer is also good at drawing.A.The; aB.The; theC.A; aD.The; /答案：D第21题It' s such a difficult problem________no one can work it out.A.asB.thatC.soD.Thus答案：B第22题I' d rather you________there next week.A.wentB.goC.should have goneD.had gone答案：A第23题By the end of this term, we________3,000 English words in all.A.will learnB.will have learnedC.learnedD.had learned答案：B第24题________is known to all, the earth moves around the sun once a year.A.ThatB.AsC.WhatD.It答案：B第25题________I admit that she has shortcomings, I still like her.A.WhenB.AsC.WhileD.Once答案：C第26题to our great________, tom' s illness proved not to be as serious as we had feared.A.anxietyB.reliefC.viewD.judgment答案：B第27题The meeting is to begin at 4:00 p.m., but as assistants, we're________to be there a bit earlier.A.InvitedB.supposedC.encouragedD.hoped答案：B第28题Can you________the differences between the two pictures?A.tellB.talkC.speakD.say答案：A第29题Do you know the________of the saying I just quoted?A.resourceB.sourceC.courseD.cause答案：B第30题The Internet has brought________big changes in the way we work.A.aboutB.outC.upD.back答案：A第31题Dr.Hampton: Good morning, Professor Smith.Professor Smith : ________, Dr.Hampton.Dr.Hampton: May I come in?Professor Smith: Of course, please.A.Good morningB.

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.（分数：10.00）__________________________________________________________________________________________ 解析：Impatience has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuck in traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past. Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology.They suggest that "digital technology, from cellphones to emails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from this technology have in turn increased our desire for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives." Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that " we have become an immediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When that doesn' t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied." Some believe that e-mailis losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people who send messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as with letter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider such formalities (客套)to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging. Many people do not take the time to proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical and spelling errors. The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the digital communications. People seem to be losing their ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast, driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a traffic light to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the first paragraph, people______.（分数：2.00）A.have been patient for a long timeB.were more patient in the past √ed to be patient while stuck in trafficed to be patient while waiting in line解析：(2).Nowadays people lose their patience because______.（分数：2.00）A.their desire for satisfaction has increasedB.they are bored with what they haveC.their life has been changed by technology √D.they have more things to do than before解析：(3).Some believe that e-mail could soon become outdated because______.（分数：2.00）A.it takes a long time to start the computerB.people value formalities between friendsC.cellphones are more popular nowadaysD.people can hardly wait for a response √解析：(4).The pursuit of instant results causes people to______.（分数：2.00）A.have more errors in their writings √B.become more impolitee voice messages instead of emailsD.lose many of their abilities in life解析：(5).The best title for the passage might be "______"（分数：2.00）A.Are We Less Patient Today? √B.What Are the Problems Caused by Impatience?C.What Happened to Technology?D.Has Digital Technology Changed Our Lives?解析：Kids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she had two normal legs. Scout, 18, answers, "No. I have never known anything different, and it would seem weird to me. Besides, if it weren't for the missing leg, I wouldn't have the opportunities I have today!" Scout has faced big challenges. When she was only months old, she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg was especially damaged, and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14, she got a high-tech leg made for sports and put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. " I remember being terrified because this was my first time," she says. "But my doctor said, ' You have to start somewhere .' " Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athleteSarah Reinertsen came up and said, "I' ve been doing this for a while. Let me give you some tips." Reinertsen, who lost her leg when she was seven, is the first disabled woman to have finished the Ironman Triathlon (铁人三项)in Hawaii. She works with an organization to help support people like Scout. Reinertsen' s encouragement changed the teenager' s life. She lost that first race, but gained the confidence that she needed to compete. If Sarah could do it, she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also finds time to share her story with school groups. " Sometimes people look at me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even if you aren' t physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind—maybe with family, or homework, or friends. No matter what it is, you can overcome that obstacle," she says. "Everything you need is inside your heart. Take small steps. As time goes by, the steps will get bigger and you will reach your dream."（分数：10.00）(1).Why does Scout answer "No" when asked if she wants two normal legs?（分数：2.00）A.She' s scared of changing her current situation.B.She couldn' t have them even if she wanted to.C.She's satisfied with what she has achieved as a disabled. √D.She has never thought about it before.解析：(2).What does the doctor mean by saying "You have to start somewhere" (Para. 2)?（分数：2.00）A.She has to find the right place to start.B.She has to do it sooner or later. √C.That will be a memorable first time.D.That is a perfect time to start.解析：(3).Scout's childhood experiences______.（分数：2.00）A.were the cause of her shynessB.were a nightmare until she reached 14C.didn' t have much influence on her later lifeD.didn't stop her from fulfilling herself √解析：(4).Which of the following statements is true?（分数：2.00）A.Sarah shared her story with school students.B.Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C.Scout joined Sarah' s organization to help others.D.Scout has been inspired by Sarah' s success. √解析：(5).Through Scout' s story, the author wants to tell us that______.（分数：2.00）A.inner strength can help one overcome difficulties √B.the disabled are mentally stronger than othersC.good things will come no matter whatD.everybody has to challenge himself解析：It was a chilly November evening in New York City, and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. Nora noticed a guy sitting inside a cardboard box next to a newsstand. She pulled at my coat sleeve and said, "That man' s cold, Daddy. Can we take him home?" I don't remember my reply, but I do remember a sudden heavy feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in flight or children playing. But now she was noticing suffering and poverty. She wasn' t even four. A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who delivered meals to elderly people. The volunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning, picked up a food package, and delivered it to an elderly person. I signedus up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person we' d been assigned. She invited us right over. The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showed us some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to say good-bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that' s good for yourself as well as for others? Indeed, the poverty my daughter and I helped lessen that Sunday afternoon was not the woman' s alone—it was in our lives, too. Now Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and collect clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I' ve watched her grow over these past four years, I still wonder—which of us has benefited more?（分数：10.00）(1).The man Nora noticed on that evening was probably______.（分数：2.00）A.one of those homeless √B.asking for foodC.taken home by the authorD.buying a newspaper解析：(2).The author had a sudden heavy feeling (Para. 2), because______.（分数：2.00）A.he did not want to take the guy homeB.his daughter had noticed the dark side of life √C.he felt a deep sympathy for the guyD.his daughter was afraid of what she saw解析：(3).Their volunteer job was to______.（分数：2.00）A.visit poor homesB.serve meals at a nearby schoolC.deliver food to needy, elderly people √D.pick up packages for poor, elderly people解析：(4).The word "us" in the last paragraph refers to______.（分数：2.00）A.the author and the old womanB.the giver and receiver of the helpC.the author and the guy in the boxD.the author and his daughter √解析：(5).The best title for this passage might be "______".（分数：2.00）A.A Loving KidB.Volunteers at WorkC.How to Help the NeedyD.A Lesson in Caring √解析：Scientists measured the impact that people have on the environment using a term called carbon " footprint." That footprint reflects the amount of carbon dioxide that is emitted (排放)into the atmosphere as a result of someone' s daily activities. Carbon footprints tend to be low for city dwellers(城镇居民). Living in a suburb outside a city, however, can turn that footprint into a bootprint. Energy researchers Christopher Jones and Daniel Kammen calculated carbon footprints for people in every zip code across the United States. People living in city centers had small footprints, the researchers found. "It is much easier to have a low carbon impact if your homeis close to where you work, shop and play," explains Jones. Living within walking or biking distance cuts back on the amount of carbon dioxide associated with moving people by cars. And cities with extensive bus and subway networks allow people to travel great distances while keeping releases of climate-altering greenhouse gases low. Not everyone can afford to live in the city, however. And not everyone wants to. Rings of suburbs have popped up around major cities across the world. Suburbs offer more space, allowing people to build larger homes. Suburbs may offer better schools for a family' s kids. But those homes are typically well beyond walking distance from where their owners work, play or learn. So people who live in suburbs often drive long distances. The new findings are an important contribution to climate research, says Matthew Kahn, an environmental economist at the University of California, who was not involved with the study. Kahn would like to see the analysis applied to other parts of the world—Europe, India and China, for instance. That would give scientists a better feel for how culture might mix with location to influence our carbon footprints.（分数：10.00）(1)."Footprint" refers to the amount of carbon dioxide released by______.（分数：2.00）A.an individual √B.an industryC.a regionD.a country解析：(2).What is the new finding concerning the footprints of people living in cities and those living in suburbs?（分数：2.00）A.The two are not at all comparable.B.The former are higher than the latter.C.The former are similar to the latter.D.The latter are higher than the former. √解析：(3).What is the key factor mentioned to explain the new findings?（分数：2.00）A.Spending habits.B.Distance travelled by cars. √C.Size of families.D.Attitude towards energy saving.解析：(4).What does Matthew Kahn think of the new findings?（分数：2.00）A.He thinks highly of them. √B.He is confused by the mixed messages.C.He can easily understand them.D.He doubts their validity.解析：(5).What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?（分数：2.00）A.To call on people to reduce carbon footprints.B.To offer tips on how to live a low-carbon life.C.To introduce the research on carbon footprints. √D.To clear up misunderstandings about carbon emission.解析：三、 Vocabulary and Structure(总题数：21，分数：42.00)2.Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.

学位英语真题及答案

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2011.11.05Part 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating(迁徙的) route, can be deadly for birds.“We live in an age of glass,”said Ms. Laurel,an architect. (76) “It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.”About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into buildings in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat (栖息地) loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year.(77) As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too have calls to makethem less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standards for new buildings in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this fall as part of its environmental certification process.There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet (紫外线的) signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and nets are the main options available.Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. "You don't necessarily have to treat every window," Ms. Laurel said. "It would be too expensive to do the whole building." The Jacob IC Javits Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns.1. What is the main idea of the passage?A. New York is a city of glass towers.B. Glass towers are dangerous for migrating birds.C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings.D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States.2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds?A. Climate change.B. Habitat loss.C. Lack of food.D. Crashing into buildings.3. What does the word“fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean?A. Choices.B. Explanations.C. Solutions.D. Developments.4. are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.A. Dot patternsB. ShadesC. NetsD. Covers5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes.B. The Jacob K. Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of birdcrashes.C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year.D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F. D. R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations (革新) are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was at Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital (数字的), they are impatient to get on with life.The easiest way to fred kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship (企业家才能) education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation, which finances programs to promote innovation on campuses, noted that more than 5,000 entrepreneurship programs are offered on two- and four-year campuses-up fromjust 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell, a Kauffman vice president, says that the foundation is extending the reach of its academic influence, which used to be found only inbusiness schools. Now, the concept of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical schools, and even in the liberal arts. “Our interest is inall the programs,”she says.“We need to spread out from the business school.”Either as class projects or on their own_, students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas, writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and, often, market. In their spare time, students in agricultural economics at Purdue invent new uses for bean; industrial design majors at Syracuse, in a special laboratory, create wearable technologies.(78) The entrepreneurship movement has its critics' especially among those who see college asa time for extensive academic exploration. “I just don't think that entrepreneurship ranks so high in terms of national: need,”says Daniel S. Greenberg, author of Science for Sale: The Perils, Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.Leonard A. Schlesinger, Babson College's president, says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is“an age-old argument.”6. When Google and Facebook were established, the founders were still__________.A. in high schoolB. in the armyC. in primary schoolD. at college7. According to the passage, what is the main purpose of entrepreneurship education?A. To prepare students for future academic life.B. To prepare students to fred oppommities and seize them.C. To prepare students for overseas career.D. To prepare students to develop interpersonal skills.8. Theword“prototype”in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean __________A. modelB. strategyC. methodD. stage9. What does Daniel S. Greenberg think of entrepreneurship education?A. Entrepreneurship, or at least certain elements of it, can be taught.B. An entrepreneurship program can help students find what they really like and entrepreneurshipisn't all about business.C. Entrepreneurship should be spread across different fields.D. Colleges shouldn't put too much emphasis on entrepreneurship programs.10. What is the main ideaof the passage?A. Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.C. Entrepreneurship education in colleges.D. Kids in the information age.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following passage:Regret is as common an emotion as love or fear, and it can be nearly as powerful. So, in a new paper, two researchers set about trying to find out what the typical American regrets most. In telephone surveys, Neal Roese, a psychologist and professor of marketing at the School ofmanagement at Northwestern UniverSity, and Mike Morrison, a doctoral candidate in psychology at University of Illinois, asked 370 Americans, aged 19 to 103, to talk about their most notable regret. Participants were asked what the regret was, when it happened, whether it was a result of something they did or didn't do, and whether it was something that could still be fixed.The most commonly mentioned regrets involved romance (浪漫的事) (18%)——lost loves or unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came in second (16%), with people still feeling badly about being unkind to their brothers or sisters in childhood. Other frequently reported regrets involved career (13%), education (12%), money (10%) and parenting (9%).Roese and Morrison's study, which is to be published in Social Psychological and Personality Science, is significant in that it surveyed a wide range of the American public, including people of all ages and socio-economic and educational backgrounds. Previous studies on regret have focused largely on college students, who predictably tend to have education-focused regrets, like wishing they had studied harder or a different major. The new survey shows that in the larger population, a person's "life circumstances accomplishments, shortcomings, situation in life- inject considerable fuel into the fires of regret," the authors write.(79) People with less education, for instance, were more likely to report education regrets. People with higher levels of education had the most career regrets. And those with no romantic parmer tended to hold regrets regarding love.Broken down (分解、细分) by sex, more women (44%) than men (19%) had regrets about love and family not surprising, since women "value social relationships more than men," the authors write. In contrast, men (34%) weremore likely than women (27%) to mention work-related regrets, wishing they'd chosen a different career path, for instance, or followed their passion. (80) Many participants also reported wishing they had worked less to spend more time with their children.There was an even split between regrets about inaction (not doing something) and action (doing something you wish you didn't). But, like previous studies, the current research found that some regrets are more likely than others to persist over time: people tend to hang on longer to the regret of inaction; meanwhile, regrets of action tend to be more recent.11. In the second paragraph, the author shows__________.A. the researchers' findingsB. the importance of familyC. the importance of moneyD. the importance of career12. According to the passage, college student participants mainly had regrets abouttheir__________.A. family and childhoodB. study and majorC. career and jobD. romance and fear13.

More women than men had regrets about love and family.D. The regret of action seems to last longer than that of inaction.15. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How regret is understood by a typical American.B. Common regrets Americans have.C. Why regret is more important than love and hate.D. How regret has shaped Americans.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.

2014年5月成人本科学位英语全真试卷及答案解析

2014年5月成人本科学位英语全真试卷及答案解析(1~5/共15题)Reading ComprehensionDirections: 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.The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten, usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is "morally wrong" This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.Pre-school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr. Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child. It later became known that "every" meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line—equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.Some critics say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9-to-11-year-olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended pre-school had better literacy (读写能力), language, maths and science skills. And two years of pre-kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services ices including school-based early education.第1题Kindergarten in rich countries other than America usually begins at the age of ______.A.eightB.sevenC.sixD.four第2题According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Poor pre-school kids have a larger vocabulary than rich kids.B.President Obama believes that early education can solve all economic and social problems.C.Rich pre-school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.D.President Obama´s education secretary thinks it is morally wrong to let kids start kindergarten early.第3题Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?A.There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.B.New Jersey has created a new Head Start to help disadvantaged kids.C.Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.D.Two years of pre-kindergarten were better than one.第4题The phrase "single out" in the last paragraph means ______.A.chooseB.think aboutC.countD.depend on第5题Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.Secondary EducationB.Pre-school EducationC.Poor Kids´ EducationD.Rich Kids´ Education下一题(6~10/共15题)Reading ComprehensionDirections: 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.Humans may not have landed on Mars (火星) just yet, but that isn´t stopping a European company from devising a plan to send four people to the Red Planet within the next few years. This project, called Mars One, aims to send a small group of people to Mars in 2022 and eventually establish a permanent colony on the planet."Everything we need to go to Mars exists," said Mars One co-founder Bas Lansdorp in March 2014. "We have the rockets to send people to Mars, the equipment to land on Mars, the robots to prepare the settlement for humans. For a one-way mission, all the technology exists. " Yet the four astronauts (宇航员) chosen for the trip will be stuck on Mars—forever. And despite Mars One´s thorough planning, there are a number of challenges that may prevent the mission from ever taking place. The biggest road block could be the mission´s huge cost ($6 billion). However, Lansdorp is confident that Mars One will be able to fund the project by selling the broadcast rights for the mission and subsequent experiences living on the planet.Those broadcast rights will also play a part in helping to select the people who will be sent to Mars. Lansdorp said the company will hold a selection process similar to a reality show. Lansdorp is expecting at least 1 million applications from people around the world. In addition to the cost, several other potential problems could inhibit (阻止) the mission to Mars."It´s even more challenging to send people there with life support, with food, with air, with all the other things like books, entertainment, means of communication and means of providing for their own resources for a long stay on Mars," said Adam Baker, senior lecturer in space engineering at Kingston University in London. "The sheer size of the rockets you´d need to do this would be absolutely colossal."第6题According to Project Mars One, humans could send four people to Mars within the next ______ years.A.sevenB.eightC.tenD.six第7题According to Bas Lansdorp, which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.For a one-way trip to Mars, all the technology exists.B.He could not come up with the fund for Mars One.C.We humans have the rockets to send people to Mars.D.We humans have the equipment to land on Mars.第8题According to the passage, all the following statements are TRUE EXCEPT that ______.A.a competition process will be held to select the four astronautsB.the cost of Mars One could go as much as $6 billionC.if it goes as planned, we could expect to watch Mars One on TVD.the four astronauts could return to Earth after a few years´ stay on Mars第9题The word "colossal" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A.very largeB.very smallC.mediumD.average第10题Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.Ready for a Round Trip to MarsB.Ready for a Short Visit to MarsC.Ready for a One-way Trip to MarsD.Ready for a Walk on Mars上一题下一题(11~15/共15题)Reading ComprehensionDirections: 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.When the United States Congress created Yellowstone National Park in 1872, the goal was to set aside a place where Americans could enjoy the beauty of nature for years to come. Now, 142 years later, there are hundreds of national parks across the country, and technology is changing the way people experience them. Should park visitors be able to use cell phones, or should their use be restricted?"Connectivity presents a real challenge to all of us." A1 Nash says. He is a public affairs officer at Yellowstone National Park. He says cell phone service at Yellowstone is available in parts of the park with stores and campgrounds. This makes it easy for visitors to share photos of their trip on social networking sites and to stay in touch with friends and family members. If a park visitor is hurt or in danger, cell phones make it easier to get help. Some say the ability to download applications that provide information about plants and animals in the park can enrich avisitor´s experience.Others say cell phones disturb people´s enjoyment of our national parks. In their view, cell phone towers are an eyesore, and they´d rather hear the sound of birds than the ring of an incoming call. Can you imagine looking out a peaceful lake or field of grass only to be disturbed by a person shouting into their phone, "Can you hear me now?"Nash says Yellowstone tries to strike a balance. "Ultimately, our job is to let visitors understand and enjoy nature better while protecting what people find special about Yellowstone, and one of those things that´s special is the ability to get away from the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of one´s daily life."第11题Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Which U.S. National Park Has the Most Visitors?B.Should National Parks Allow the Use of Cell Phones?C.What Did Yellowstone Do to Enrich Park Visitors´ Experience?D.Can Technology Transform the Way People Experience Nature?第12题National parks were established ______.A.to show respect to former presidentsB.to raise public awareness about climate changeC.to preserve areas of natural beautyD.to create job opportunities第13题According to the passage, which of the following statements about the cell phone service at Yellowstone is TRUE?A.It is limited to certain areas in the park.B.It is available everywhere in the park.C.It is not available in the park.D.It is available to visitors at a fee.第14题The word "eyesore" in the third paragraph probably meansA.something unpleasant to look atB.something harmful to healthC.beautiful sceneD.serious threat第15题What´s the position of Yellowstone on cell phone use?A.Supportive.B.Neutral.C.Negative.D.Doubtful.上一题下一题 Part ⅡVocabulary and StructureDirections: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.

On the one hand, smartphones have greatly enhanced our communication efficiency. With a smartphone, we can easily make phone calls, send text messages, and use social media to connect with people around the world. This has made long-distance communication much more convenient and instantaneous. Moreover, smartphones allow us to access information and entertainment anytime and anywhere. We can read news articles, watch movies, play games, and listen to music on our smartphones. This has made our lives more enjoyable and convenient.On the other hand, there are also disadvantages to using smartphones. First of all, smartphones can be a distraction and affect our productivity. With the constant notifications and access to social media, it’s easy to get distracted from our work or studies. Furthermore, the excessive use of smartphones can lead to physical and mental health problems. Many people develop neck and back pain, as well as eye strain, from staring at the screen for long periods of time. Additionally, excessive use of social media on smartphones can lead to feelings of loneliness and depression as people compare themselves to others.In conclusion, while smartphones have brought many benefits to modern society, it’s important to also recognize the drawbacks. We should use smartphones in moderation and be aware of the potential negative impacts they can have on our lives.（以上文档为示例，实际内容和答案需根据具体考试而定，此处为虚构内容，仅用于展示格式）。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B ,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer onthe ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneKids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she had two normal legs. Scout, 18,answers, “No. I have never known anything different, and it would seem weird to me. Besides, if it weren^t for themissing leg, I wouldn?t have the opportunities I have today!”Scout has faced big challenges. When she was only months old,she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg wasespecially damaged,and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14,she got a high-tech leg made for sportsand put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. “I remember being terrified because this was my firsttime，’’ she says. “But my doctor said，‘You have to start somewhere. ’ ”Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athlete Sarah Reinertsen came up and said，“I’ve beendoing this for a while. Let me give you some tips. ’’ R einertsen，who lost her leg when she was seven, is the firstdisabled woman to have finished the Ironman Triathlon(铁人三项）in Hawaii. She works with an organization tohelp support people like Scout.Reinertsen’s encouragement changed the teenager^s life. S he lost that first race, but gained the confidence thatshe needed to compete. If Sarah could do it,she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also findstime to share her story with school groups.“Sometimes people look at me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even ifyou arenJt physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind —maybe with family，or homework,orfriends. No matter what it is,you can over-come that obstacle，” she says. “Everything you need is inside your heart.Take small steps. As time goes by,the steps will get bigger and you will reach your dream.”16. Why does Scout answer “No” when asked if she wants two normal legs?A. She?s scared of changing her current situation.B.She couldn't have them even if she wanted to.C.She has never thought about it before.D.She’s satisfied with what she has achieved as a disabled.17. What does the doctor mean by saying “You have to start somewhere”（Para. 2)?A.She has to do it sooner or later.B.She has to find the right place to start.C.That will be a memorable first time.D.That is a perfect time to start.18. Scout’s childhood experiences____.A.were the cause of her shynessB.were a nightmare until she reached 14C.didn’t stop her from fulfilling herselfD.didn’t have much influence on her later life19. Which of the following statements is true?A.Sarah shared her story with school students.B.Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C.Scout has been inspired by Sarah’s success.D.Scout joined Sarah’s organization to help others.20. Through Scout’s story，the author wants to tell us that ____ .A.the disabled are mentally stronger than othersB.inner strength can help one overcome difficultiesC.good things will come no matter whatD.everybody has to challenge himselfPassage TwoImpatience has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuckin traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past.Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. They suggest that"digital technology, from cellphones to e-mails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from thistechnology have in turn increased our appetite for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives."Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become animmediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When thatdoesn7t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied. “Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people whosend messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as withletter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider suchformalities(客套)to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging. Many people do not take the timeto proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical andtypographical errors.The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the realm of digital communications. People seem to be losingtheir ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast,driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a trafficlight to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.21. According to the first paragraph,people______ .A. were more patient in the pastB. have been patient for a long timeC. used to be patient while stuck in trafficD. used to be patient while waiting in line22. Nowadays people lose their patience because .______A. their desire for satisfaction has increasedB. they are bored with what they haveC. they have more things to do than beforeD. their life has been changed by technology23. Some believe that e-mail could soon become outdated because_______ .A. it takes a long time to start the computerB. people value formalities between friendsC. people can hardly wait for a responseD. cellphones are more popular nowadays24. The pursuit of instant results causes people to __.A. become more impoliteB. have more errors in their writingsC. use voice messages instead of emailsD. lose many of their abilities in life25. The best title for the passage might be “”A. What Are the Problems Caused by Impatience?B. Are We Less Patient Today?C. What Happened to Technology?D. Has Digital Technology Changed Our Lives?Passage ThreeScientists measured the impact that people have on the environment using a term called carbon “footprint. ” Thatfootprint reflects the amount of carbon dioxide that is emitted(排放）into the atmosphere as a result of someone’sdaily activities. Carbon footprints tend to be low for city dwellers(城镇居民）. Living in a suburb outside a city,however, can turn that footprint into a bootprint.Energy researchers Christopher Jones and Daniel Kammen calculated carbon footprints for people in every zipcode across the United States. People living in city centers had small footprints, the researchers found. ,lIt is mucheasier to have a low carbon impact if your home is close to where you work, shop and play,” explains Jones. Livingwithin walking or biking distance cuts back on the amount of carbon dioxide associated with moving people by cars.And cities with extensive bus and subway networks allow people to travel great distances while keeping releases ofclimate-altering greenhouse gases low.Not everyone can afford to live in the city, however. And not everyone wants to. Rings of suburbs have popped uparound major cities across the world. Suburbs offer more space, allowing people to build larger homes. Suburbs mayoffer better schools for a family?s kids. But those homes are typically well beyond walking distance from where theirowners work, play or learn. So people who live in suburbs often drive long distances. The new findings are an important contribution to climate research, says Matthew Kahn,an environmentaleconomist at the University of California, who was not involved with the study. Kahn would like to see the analysisapplied to other parts of the world—Europe, India and China, for instance. That would give scientists a better feel forhow culture might mix with location to influence our carbon footprints.26. “Footprint” refers to the amount of carbon dioxide released by.A. an industryB. an individualC. a regionD. a country27. What is the new finding concerning the footprints of people living in cities and those living in suburbs?A. The two are not at all comparable.B. The former are higher than the latter.C.

To introduce the research on carbon footprints.Passage FourIt was a chilly November evening in New York City,and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. Noranoticed a guy sitting inside a cardboard box next to a newsstand. She pulled at my coat sleeve and said, “That manJscold,Daddy. Can we take him home?”I don’t remember my reply,but I do remember a sudden heavy feeling inside me. I had always been delighted athow much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in flight or children playing. But now she wasnoticing suffering and poverty. She wasn’t even four.A few days later,I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who delivered meals to elderly people. Thevolunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning,picked up a food package,and delivered it to an elderlyperson. I signed us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easilysee how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person weMbeen assigned. She invited us right over.The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. Shetook the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showedus some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to saygood-bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that’s good for yourself aswell as for others?

北京成人自考本科学士学位英语统一考试考试时间：2014.05.10Part 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 blacken the corresponding letter m the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten, usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is "morally wrong". This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.(76) Pre.school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr, Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child. It later became known that "every" meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line—equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.(77) Some critics say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9.to.l 1.year.olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended pre.school had better literacy (读写能力), language, maths and science skills. And two years of pre.kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school.based early education.1．Kindergarten in rich countries other than America usually begins at the age of _______A. eightB. sevenC.six D. four2．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Poor pre.school kids have a larger vocabulary than rich kids.B. President Obama believes that early education can solve all economic and social problems.C. Rich pre.school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.D. President Obama's education secretary thinks it is morally wrong to let kids start kindergarten early.3．Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?A. There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.B. New Jersey has created a new Head Start to help disadvantaged kids.C. Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.D. Two years of pre.kindergarten were better than one.4．The phrase "single out" in the last paragraph means _______.A. chooseB. think aboutC. countD. depend on5．Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Secondary EducationB. Pre.school EducationC. Poor Kids’ EducationD. Rich Kids' Education答案详解：1. D four第一段第一句说美国的幼儿园一般在五到六岁开始，第二句说在富裕国家里这么晚才开始是十分奇怪的，所以是在五岁以前，综合答案选择D，四岁。

2. C Rich pre-school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.第一第四句中提到，根据调查，贫困家庭的孩子在词汇方面要落后于富有家庭的孩子，而这种差距往往会持续一生。

所以选C。

3. D Two years of pre-kindergarten were better than one.倒数第二段第三四句讲到，参加学前教育的孩子在读写能力、语言能力、数学能力和科学能力上均有更好的表现，而有两年的学前教育效果要好于一年，所以选D。

4. A choose本句的句意是批评者们选择了一个叫做“头脑启蒙”政府计划来……其他的选项分别都B 考虑 C计数 D依赖5. B Pre-school Education本文通篇都在探讨的是学前教。

A选项未提到，CD均为学前教育研究的一部分，所以选B。

Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Humans may not have landed on Mars (火星) just yet, but that isn't shopping a European company from devising a plan to send four people to the Red Planet within the next few years. (78) This project, called Mars One, aims to send a small group of people to Mars in 2022 and eventually establish a permanent colony on the planet."Everything we need to go to Mars exists," said Mars One co.founder Bas Lansdorp in March 2014. "We have the rockets to send people to Mars, the equipment to land on Mars, the robots to prepare the settlement for humans. For a one.way mission, all the technology exists." Yet the four astronauts (宇航员) chosen for the trip will be stuck on Mars—forever. And despite Mars One's thorough planning, there are a number of challenges that may prevent the mission from ever taking place. (79) The biggest road block could be the mission's huge cost ($6 billion). However, Lansdorp is confident that Mars One will be able to fund the project by selling the broadcast rights for the mission and subsequent experiences living on the planet.Those broadcast rights will also play a part in helping to select the people who will be sent to Mars. Lansdorp said the company will hold a selection process similar to a reality show. Lansdorp is expecting at least 1 million applications from peoplearound the world. In additon to the cost, several other potential problems could inhibit (阻止) the mission to Mars.“It’s even more challenging to send people there with life support, with food, with air, with all the other things like books, entertainment, means of communication and of providing for their own resources for a long stay on Mars," said Adam Baker. senior lecturer in space engineering at Kingston University in London. "The sheer size of the rockets you'd need to do this would be absolutely colossal.”6. According to Project Mars One, humans could send four people to Mars within the next _______ years.A. sevenB. eightC.ten D. six7．According to Bas Lansdorp, which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. For a one.way trip to Mars, all the technology exists.B. He could not come up with the fund for Mars One.C. We humans have the rockets to send people to Mars.D. We humans have the equipment to land on Mars.8．According to the passage, all the following statements are TRUE EXCEPT that _______.A. a competition process will be held to select the four astronautsB. the cost of Mars One could go as much as $6 billionC. if it goes as planned, we could expect to watch Mars One on TVD.the four astronauts could return to Earth after a few years’ stay on Mars9. The word "colossal” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. very largeB. very smallC. mediumD. average10. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Ready for a Round Trip to MarsB. Ready for a Short Visit to MarsC. Ready for a One.way Trip to MarsD. Ready for a Walk on Mars答案详解：6. B eight第一段最后一句说计划在2022年送一组人上火星，可知答案是八年，选择B。
