I am suspended in the air, I touch nothing, and I am surrounded by lights. Now I dress myself afresh, and now I am naked, and I am in the heat and the cold, by night and by day.

【例题】Section CQuestions 71—75 are based on the following passage.Alaska is disappearing slowly but surely. Since the 1950s, it is estimated that as much as 15 percent of Alaska’s area has disappeared. But how can a whole state be disappearing?One reason for Alaska’s gradual disappearance is the melting of its glaciers. According to one geologist at the US Geological Survey, about 98 percent of Alaska’s glaciers are either unmoving or diminishing. This diminishing seems mainly due to the increase in global temperatures. Since the 1960s, the average year-round temperature has increased by 5℃. Furthermore, the average winter temperature has increased by 8℃. Presently, an estimated 24 cubic miles of ice is disappearing from Alaskan glaciers every year. It may be even more in the near future, as some scientists predict that the average world temperature could go up 2.5 to 10℃ bythe year 2100.Another problem contributing to Alaska’s gradual disappearance is its thawing permafrost. Much of the land in Alaska was permanently frozen, or frozen for most of the year, thus maintaining its integrity. Now, the thawing permafrost is causing a number of problems on land. Roads and utility poles are collapsing. Also, the hard permafrost which originally prevented beaches from eroding during violent storms is now melting. Affected villages are forced to relocate. For villages on small low islands, one terrible storm could wipe out the entire community.The melting permafrost and increasing temperature are also having a negative impact on the forests of Alaska.As the permafrost under the forests melts, insects that normally don’t turn up until the warmer seasons are appearing sooner. The spruce-bark beetle, for example, is increasing in numbers as a result of global warming. It usually takes about two years for these beetles to grow and reproduce in very cold weather. However, due to the increase in temperatures, spruce-bark beetles are damaging as many trees in one year as they previously damaged in two. At this rate, Alaska’s forest won’t survive the turn of the century.Some scientists believe that human activity is linked to a global increase in weather temperature. Whether the rising temperatures are caused by human activity or natural changes, the fact remains that Alaska is warming. Some others argue that global warming may be a normal trend on the Earth’s temperature chart. One theory argues that we are near the end of a so-called “Little Ice Age”, and the retreat of the glaciers is a natural result of this cycle.Whether natural or produced by humans, there is little hope for the immediate future of glaciers as we know them. Horribly, this could be a preview of what will happen to the rest of the world in the next century.Questions 71—73Answer the following questions briefly according to the passage.71. What are disappearing in Alaska actually?72. How much ice is melting each year according to the survey?73. Why do insects damage more trees than before?【例题解析】71. Glaciers and forests。

全国大学生英语竞赛C类复习整理(超全)

全国大学生英语竞赛C类资料整理Part I听力特别注意：听力内容均是只播放一遍！Section A 5段短对话，分别1个小问题。

Section B 2段长对话，分别5个小问题。

前两部分的长短对话难度其实不是很大，主要是尽快让自己进入状态，听力只有一遍，上一题没听到，就赶紧猜一个，千万不要影响后面的题目。

Section C 5段短新闻，分别1个小问题，内容均是摘自BBC或VOA的新闻。

现在只剩下一个月时间，要大家一直对着BBC或是VOA广播听也不是办法，建议大家上沪江英语学习的BBC或VOA小组，里面的内容一般都是筛选过的，每天听一些，熟悉一下英美人士的发音就好。

Section D 1段长文章，共有10个空格，注意要填写的可能是单词也可能是短语。

最后就是关于考听力的一些提示，毕竟英语竞赛的听力考试是播放录音的，各考场分配到的带子质量不一，考场环境有好有坏。

假设你实在太倒霉了，带子播放不清晰，环境吵杂（监考老师也很可能帮不了你，因为大多监考老师不是英语老师），也不要心慌，冷静下来尽量听到关键词，加上自己的大胆猜测，蒙对的概率也是很大的。

全国大学生英语竞赛A、B类词汇与语法真题汇编三[单选题]151.The second report was ______ by August 2005, but one year later it was still nowhere in sight.A.submittedB.to have submittedC.to submitD.to have been submitted参考答案：D（江南博哥）第二份报告应该在2005年8月之前交上去，但一年之后还是不知道在哪儿。

something is to be done表示某事将要被做或被完成。

有by引导的时间状语的句子要用完成时态。

August 2005是过去的时间点，句子要用过去完成时态，故选项D正确。

in sight被看到，在眼前。

[单选题]152.In this experiment, the students’studies are stopped several times during the listening test and asked to report what they ______ during the pause before answering the questions.A.had just been thinking aboutB.have just been thinking aboutC.are just thinking aboutD.had just thought about参考答案：B在这个试验中，学生们在听力测验的过程中被数次打断，并被要求报告在答题前的短暂停顿中想了什么。

has/ have been + 动词的现在分词是动词的现在完成时结构。

现在完成时表示从过去某时开始一直持续到现在并且还将持续下去的动作或者是表示在说话时刻之前刚刚结束的动作。

Just表明停顿中的所想是发生在被打断之前刚刚结束的动作，所以用现在完成进行时。
