In his eagerness to draw quick profit from the trees, he has cut them down in large numbers.Two thousand years ago, a rich and powerful country cut down its trees to build warships, with which to gain itself an empire（帝国）. It gained the empire but, without its trees, its soil became bare and poor. When the empire fell to pieces, the country found itself faced by floods and starvation（饥饿）. Even where a government realizes the importance of a plentiful supply of trees, it is difficult sometimes to make the people realize this. They cut down the trees but are too careless to plant and look after new trees. So, unless the government has a good system of control, or can educate the people, the forests will slowly disappear.This does not only mean that there will be fewer trees. The results are even more serious. For where there are trees, their roots break the soil up, allowing the rain to sink in, and also bind the soil. This prevents the soil from being washed away. But where there are no trees, the rain causes floods and the rain carries away the rich topsoil in which crops grow. When all the topsoil is gone, nothing remains but worthless desertTrees are useful to man mainly in three ways, the most important of which is that they can_____（）A.make him draw quick profit from themB.keep him from the hot sunshineC.enable him to build warshipsD.protect him from droughts and floods46.According to this passage, some animals have the gift of ______（）A.telling people apart by how they behaveB.typing each otherC.telling good people from bad peopleD.recognizing human faces47.What type of patients does a pediatrician probably treat（）A.Patients with mental problemsB.Patients with physical problemsC.ChildrenD.Old people48.Every time a person eats something he makes a nutritional decision. He accepts or rejects the food available to him at home for meals or snacks.Or he selects food for himself at many places in the community, such as supermarkets, drive-ins,restaurants,and food counters in drug stores. These selections make a difference in how an individual looks,how he feels,and how well he can work and play.When a good assortment of food in appropriate amounts is selected and eaten, the consequences are more likely to be a desirable level of health and enough energy to allow one to be as active as he needs and wants to be. When choices are less than desirable,the consequences are likely to be poor health or limited energy or both.Studies of diets of individuals in the United States show that food selection is a highly individual matter,even among young children. Furthermore, far too many individuals of all ages aremaking poor choices day after day and are either now living with the consequences or will be in the future. Nutritionists and workers in allied professions have been concerned about helping people learn to select and enjoy a wide variety of food combinations that can add up to a good diet.Most people believe that they are well-fed—that the choices they make are good ones. After all,they are not really sick; neither are they hungry. However,their nutrition is really poor in one respect or another. Milk and milk products,such as cheese,icecream,buttermilk,and yogurt，are often neglected. Then people may leave out in their diets many fruits and vegetable, particularly those that are good sources of vitamins A and C. These includedark green,leafy vegetables; deep yellow vegetables; and citrus fruits and vegetables,such as cabbages,tomatoes,and green peppersThe passage mentions all of the following influences of food selection except （）A.how an individual looksB.how an individual feelsC.how well an individual works and playsD.how an individual looks at life49.The underlined word they in Par2 refers to（）A.older peopleB.new thingsC.childrenD.interests50.Dr. Robert Coles believes that ______（）A.being rich has as many advantages as being poorB.rich children often get too little entertainmentC.rich children sometimes can't enjoy the thing they are most in need ofD.rich children aren't given enough things51.Passage OneA wealthy Persian Prince loved good stories. The older he grew, the fonder he became of them. But he always regretted they had to have an end. So he decided to give half his wealth and his beautiful daughter to the man who could tell him a story without an end. Anybody who failed would be sent to prison for life. The risk was so great that nobody came to the palace to tell the Prince a story for a whole year. Then one day, a tall, handsome young man came and said he wanted to tell a story that would go on forever. The Prince agreed but warned him what would happen if he failed. The risk is worth your fair daughter, the young man replied poetically（有诗意地）. He then began this well-known story:Once upon a time there was a certain King who feared famine. So he ordered his men to build an enormous storehouse, which he filled with corn. Then, when it was up, made water-proof and fire-proof, the King felt happy. But one day he noticed a small hole in the roof and as he looked at it, a locust came out with a grain of corn. A minute later, another locust came out with another grain of corn. Then a third locust with another grain of corn. Then a fourth locust, flying at great speed, pushed through the hole and came out with two grains of corn. Then a fifth locust came and….Stop, shouted the Prince. I can't, answered the young man. I must go on untilI tell you what happened to each grain of the corn. But that will go on forever. The Prince protested. Exactly, the young man replied, and he smiled as he turned towards the Prince's beautiful young daughterThe Prince always felt regretted about stories because（）A.he had too much wealthB.there was a terrible famineC.all stories have endsD.there was no story-teller52.According to Jae Kwon, his nuclear battery ______（）es a solid semiconductorB.will soon replace the present onesC.could be extremely thinD.has passed the final test53.Some people argue that self-plagiarism（自我剽窃）is impossible bydefinition because plagiarism is theft and people cannot steal from their own work. But, thisis not correct in law. And there are circumstances, such as insurance fraud, etc., where it is possible to steal from oneself.Self-plagiarism, however, must be carefully distinguished from the recycling of one's work that to a greater or lesser extent everyone legally does.Self-plagiarism in academic publications is a grey area. However, many universities indirectly recognize the practice as deceptive（欺骗性的）. Theypublish rules preventing students from handing in basically the same essay for credits in different courses. There are also rules against someone handing in the same graduate thesis to different universities. Among established academics, self-plagiarism is a problem. It means basically the same article or book is handed in on more than one occasion for salary raising or promotion.Like all plagiarism the essence of self-plagiarism is the author's attempts to cheat the reader. This happens when no indication is given the work that is being recycled or when an effort is made to disguise（掩饰）the originaltext. For example, an author just makes cosmetic changes to make the same article, chapter, or book look different. But actually it remains unchanged in its central argument. In this case, disguising a text occurs. Authors change such things as paragraph breaks, capitalization, or the substitution of technical terms in different languages. What he has done is to make readers believe theyare reading something completely new.This practice is self-plagiarismIn the second sentence of the first paragraph, this refers to _______（）A.all the activities about plagiarismB.the activities of self-plagiarismC.the argument for the impossibility of self-plagiarismD.the argument for the possibility of self-plagiarism六、作文题(1题)54.Directions:For this part, you are supposed to write a Notice in at least 100 words based on the following information given in Chinese below.

山西省2024年专升本考试模拟试题 英语（二）
山西省2024年专升本考试模拟试题英语（二）作者：***来源：《山西教育·招考》2024年第02期域.Reading Comprehension（20 points， 2 points for each）Passage 1In England， we look forward to our birthdays for 364 days a year！ We invite special people to celebrate it with us.The PresentsPresents are opened as soon as the children are awake. They can’t wait for the birthday cake later in the day！The CardsFriends and family send birthday cards. Sending birthday cards is a custom that began in England about a century ago.The PartyWhat the birthday child will have is a party to which friends and family are invited. Visitors to the party bring presents for the birthday child. The children play games such as musical chairs and pass the parcel（包裹）.The CakeThe birthday cake is decorated on a theme. A candle for each year is lit and placed on top and the child blows out the candles making a wish. We don’t put objects inside the cake as stated on many websites.The Bumps（碰撞）It used to be traditional for the birthday child to have the bumps. Friends would hold the child by the legs and under the arms and lift the child up and down bumping them gently on the ground. The number of bumps given is the age of the child plus one for extra good luck. As this can be dangerous， clapping is often done instead.The SweetsSome children do take sweets to school to share with their classmates on their birthdays.Passage 2A war m drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers have discovered that“night milk”contains more melatonin（褪黑激素）， which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.The study， by researchers from Seoul， South Korea， involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.The mice given night milk， which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin， were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime， according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.While the effect of cows milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now， taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content， which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime， the greater burden you will put on your body at night.芋.

You should choose the one that best fits into the passage.To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students; you must be a 1 speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 2 what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. 3 a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still 4 his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his 5 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 6 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 7 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn"t mean that he will indeed be able to act 8 on the stage, for there are very important 9between the teacher"s work and the actor"s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 10 words each time he plays a certain part; 11 his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 12 on the stage.A good teacher 13 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 14 ; they ask and answer questions; they obey orders; and if they don"t understand something, they will say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 15 it as he goes along.1.A. clearB. slowC. quickD. loud2.A. actB. talkC. sayD. repeat3.A. ListenB. LookC. WatchD. Observe4.A. forB. beforeC. behindD. with5.A. tongueB. wordsC. soundD. arms6.A. hearB. seeC. thinkD. guess7.A. talkingB. thinkingC. hearingD. saying8.A. goodB. badlyC. wellD. actively9.A. thingsB. differencesC. pointsD. jobs10.A. differentB. sameC. aboveD. following11.A. justB. neverC. everD. even12.A. naturalB. realC. falseD. clear13.A. isB. worksC. hasD. teaches14.A. groupB. partyC. classD. paly15.A. inventB. discoverC. teachD. continueⅢ．Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are four reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer.Passage 1Being a salesman, the most important thing is to understand people. You"ve got to know what they"re thinking. If you can figure that out, you cab get them to do a lot. **e in with an idea about what they want. You get them talking about themselves, about what they like.If it"s a man, you talk about football, or something like that. If it"s a woman, you ask her about fashions. That way they **fortable with you. You ask them a lot of questions and get them saying yes. Then they just get into the habit of saying yes.In the end, you can put them into anything you want, if you"re really good. For example, if they need a little ear for the city, you send them home a truck. Of course, I wouldn"t really do that. It wouldn"t be right. You"ve got to sell on this job, but you also have to be fair. It"s not fair to take advantage of people too much. There are some people in this business who"d do anything. But I don"t believe in that.1. To be a good salesman, the most important thing is to ______.A. learn from different kinds of peopleB. understand what people are thinkingC. see what people usually do in daily lifeD. watch what changes people have made2. According to the passage, you can make a woman **fortable by ______.A. talking about fashionsB. playing football togetherC. sending a small gift to herD. saying yes to her questions3. One way to make people get into the habit of saying yes is to ______.A. ask them to say what they likeB. tell them to do anything you wantC. help them feel confident in themselvesD. get them to say yes to a lot of your questions4. According to the last paragraph, the author believes that ______.A. it is right to do anything in businessB. it is useless to believe in what customers sayC. it is unfair to take too much advantage of peopleD. it is dangerous to listen to the advice of a salesman5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Most women like to talk about sports events.B. Some business people would do anything to sell.C. It"s difficult to understand other people very well.D. You can make people do anything by talking with them.Passage 2When it comes to human resources, hiring highly-skilled staff is not usually enough for a company to function successfully. Besides the knowledge in their particular fields, employees must always have additional skills—those of co-operation. In the case that work tasks can only be carried out by communicating with people, **mon decisions, solving problems, sharing information and helping one another, teamwork skills are vital.While some jobs may require talent, the ability to work as a team is learned. There are no complicated formulas; you don"t need to have any special qualities or exceptional mental abilities. Individuals can be effective as a team if they have developed certain behaviors or habits of communication. **panies, clubs and organizations use team building activities. Team building activities may include a number of teamwork elements. They are aimed at encouraging active participation in task accomplishment while all members have their roles as individuals and are able to co-operate towards a common goal as a team.Many team building activities focus on problem solving and discussing team issues; thus argument as a way to common consensus (共识) is encouraged. Team building activities often involve recognition and identification of team member skills, talents, knowledge, and experiences which allow the team members to learn more about each other and fully utilize those skills where appropriate. Many team activities are focused on developing keys to trust during challenging times.1. In the author"s opinion, which of the following is vital for a company to be successful?A. Specialized knowledge.B. Highly-skilled staff.C. Exceptional talent.D. Teamwork skills.2. According to the second paragraph, co-operation skills ______.A. require special qualities and abilitiesB. are learned while working in a teamC. need exceptional mental abilitiesD. are **plicated to learn3. Team building activities are good for ______.A. hiring employees with special talentB. encouraging employees to co-operateC. helping employees work independentlyD. training employees in their special fields4. Why are team members encouraged to argue in team building activities?A. To come to an agreement.B. To identify their own skills.C. To learn more about **pany.D. To build up their own confidence.5. What is the best title of the passage?A. Team BuildingB. Problem SolvingC. Communication SkillsD. Company ManagementPassage 3Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict(迷)," he jokes. "I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled(皱的)." Today David wears casual clothes—khaki pants and a sports shirt—to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. "I"m working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to **fortable."More and **panies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s, **panies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress-down Friday" or "casual Friday". "What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing," said business adviser Maisly Jones.Why have so **panies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it"s easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don"t want to dress up for work," says the owner of a **pany, "so it"s hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are **fortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said. "For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes."1. David Smith refers to himself as having been "a clothes addict" because ______.A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB. he couldn"t stand a clean appearanceC. he wanted his clothes to look tidy and clean all the timeD. he didn"t want to spend much money on clothes2. David Smith wears casual clothes now, because ______.A. they make him feel at ease when workingB. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC. he looks handsome in casual clothesD. he no longer works for **pany3. According to this passage, which of the following is FALSE?A. Many workers don"t like a conservative dress code.B. Comfortable clothes make workers more productive.C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young workers.D. All the employers in the U.S. are for casual office wear.4. According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago.B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.C. "Dress-down Friday" was first given as a favor from employers.D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.5. In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT ______.A. saving worker"s moneyB. making workers more attractiveC. improving worker"s feelingD. making workers happierPassage 4Many things about language are a mystery, and many will always remain so. But some things we do know.First, we know that all men in the world have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language. And, in historical times, there has never been a race of men without a language.Second, there is no such thing as a primitive language. There are many peoples whose cultures are undeveloped, who are, as we say, uncivilized, but the languages they speak are not primitive. In all known languages we can **plexities that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing. This has not always been well understood; indeed, the direct contrary has often been stated. Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate. Many people have supposed that the **municated in a very primitive way. Study has proved this to be nonsense. There are, or were, hundreds of American Indian languages, and all of them turn out to be **plicated and very old. They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with, but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate. That is, each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language.Finally, we know that language changes. It is natural and normal for language to change; the only languages which do not change are the dead ones. This is easy to understand if we look backward in time. Change goes on in all aspects of language. Grammatical features change as do speech sounds, and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rapidly. V ocabulary is the least stable part of any language.1. What can be inferred from the second paragraph?A. Some backward race of men doesn"t have a language of their own.B. Some race of men in history didn"t possess a language of their own.C. Any human race, whether backward or not, has a language.D. Some race of men on earth **municate without language.2. What kind of language can peoples of undeveloped cultures have?A. Complicated.B. Uncivilized.C. Primitive.D. Well-known.3. People used to think **municated ______.A. **plicated languageB. in a primitive wayC. with hand gesturesD. through body movements4. What does the word "adequate" (Line 1, Para. 4) most probably mean?A. Primitive.B. Unique.C. Sufficient.D. Proper.5. According to the author, language changes are most likely to occur in ______.A. grammarB. pronunciationC. vocabularyD. intonationⅣ．Writing1. Directions: For this part, you"re required to write a composition on the topic Raising Pets. You should write at least 100 words, and **position should be based on the outline given in Chinese below and write **position on the Answer Sheet.Outline:(1)有些人喜欢养宠物，理由……(2)有些人反对养宠物，理由……(3)你的观点。

Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years. Each couple provided four photographs—one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. The background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later. Some testees were asked to pick out the partners. They failed totally with the first group. Their judgements were no better than chance. But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.Dr. Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation. One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it. He says humans begin to imitatethe expressions of the faces of their loved ones. Another possible reason, he says, is the common experience of the couples. There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways. For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar wayDr. Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of（）A.imitating the couples'lifeB.grouping the couples againC.leaving no trace for the testeesD.giving the testees more chances45.Passage OneWhat you've always heard? We're eating way too much salt. The average American gets about 3.4 grams of sodium every day, far more than the upper limit of 2.3 grams recommended by the USDA. The Institute of Medicine estimates that reducing sodium intake nationwide could prevent 100,000 deaths every year.The headlines now? It's time to get tough. The New York city health department recently kicked off a national effort to cut the amount of salt in packaged and restaurant food by 25 percent over five years. Eighty percent of the salt in the average person's diet comes from those sources, not from the saltshaker.But wait! The benefits of salt reduction are surprisingly murky. At least 13 studies have tried to tease out what happens to people who choose to eat salty or not-so-salty food—and the results have pointed in every direction. Some studies suggest that cutting salt protects the heart; others suggest that intense salt reduction can actually increase heart problems. What's needed, Dr. Michael Alderman says, is a randomized, controlled trial, in which people are put on different diets and followed for years. It's the only way to get a reliable answer, but it's never been done.So what should you do? Go easy on processed foods and eat more produce. Those changes will improve your diet in a variety of ways and cut the amount of sodium you consume. If your blood pressure is high, work with your doctor to control it with drugs and lifestyle changes. If your blood pressure is healthy? At this point, there's no convincing reason for you to count every grainIt is stated in Paragraph 1 that our sodium intake（）A.is within the healthy rangeB.is a bit over the upper limitC.is well below the lower limitD.is far beyond what is necessary46.What is the best title of the text（）A.The Guide to AdmongoB.An Education Website for ChildrenC.A Popular Online Video GameD.A Website Aimed at Adults47.The passage mainly talks about _______（）A.the American virtuesB.the American characterC.the American faultsD.the American lifestyle48.What is the best title of the passage（）A.The Language Made by One ManB.A Talk About the World LanguageC.English as a Second Language for EveryoneD.Esperanto—a Better Language Than English49.The Bedouin people think most highly of one who is __________（）A.devoted to his country and his leaderB.from an ordinary familyC.proud of his ancestors and relativesD.faithful to his family and tribe50.The best title for the passage might be _____（）A.Ways of Gathering IntelligenceB.National Defense Against All ThreatsC.Which Is More Threatening: Terrorists or SpiesD.What We Do as Intelligence Officers51.What effect has the Internet had on music piracy（）A.It has made it easier to fight piracyB.It has increased the number of pirate CDs availableC.It has made it easier to illegally copy musicD.It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available52.Passage OneI strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist formore than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is that love is just not enough. I'll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I'll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water. Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes ofthose we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier—our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, as loveFrom the passage we know that（）A.the author complains about her parents'being too understandingB.the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC.people divorced mainly because they didn't love each otherD.some people divorced because they couldn't understand each other53.What is the author's attitude towards the fidgeting habit（）A.ConfidentB.NegativeC.SatisfiedD.Objective六、作文题(1题)54.Directions:For this part, you are required to write A Letter of Recommendation for your student Li Weihua. You should write at least 100 words based on the following information given in Chinese below.假如你是李明，你的学生李伟华想在你的美国朋友约翰逊教授的大学申请一个职位，请写一封推荐信以帮助他成功通过申请参考答案1.D两家公司决定就动物克隆的项目展开合作。

You should choose the one that best fits into the passage.To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students; you must be a 21 speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 22 what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. 23 a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still 24 his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his 25 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 26 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 27 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't mean that he will indeed be able to act 28 on the stage, for there are very important 29 between the teacher's work and the actor's. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 30 words each time he plays a certain part; 31 his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 32 on the stage.A good teacher 33 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 34 ; they ask and answer questions; they obey orders; and if they don't understand something, they will say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 35 it as he goes along.21、 A. clear B. slow C. quick D. loud22、 A. act B. talk C. say D. repeat23、 A. Listen B. Look C. Watch D. Observe24、 A. for B. before C. behind D. with25、 A. tongue B. words C. sound D. arms26、 A. hear B. see C. think D. guess27、 A. talking B. thinking C. hearing D. saying28、 A. good B. badly C. well D. actively29、 A. things B. differences C. points D. jobs30、 A. different B. same C. above D. following31、 A. just B. never C. ever D. even32、 A. natural B. real C. false D. clear33、 A. is B. works C. has D. teaches34、 A. group B. party C. class D. paly35、 A. invent B. discover C. teach D. continueⅢ．Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are four reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer.Passage 1Being a salesman, the most important thing is to understand people. You've got to know what they're thinking. If you can figure that out, you cab get them to do a lot. They come in with an idea about what they want. You get them talking about themselves, about what they like.If it's a man, you talk about football, or something like that. If it's a woman, you ask her about fashions. That way they get comfortable with you. You ask them a lot of questions and get them saying yes. Then they just get into the habit of saying yes.In the end, you can put them into anything you want, if you're really good. For example, if they need a little ear for the city, you send them home a truck. Of course, I wouldn't really do that. It wouldn't be right. You've got to sell on this job, but you also have to be fair. It's not fair to take advantage of people too much. There are some people in this business who'd do anything. But I don't believe in that.36、 To be a good salesman, the most important thing is to ______.A. learn from different kinds of peopleB. understand what people are thinkingC. see what people usually do in daily lifeD. watch what changes people have made37、 According to the passage, you can make a woman feel comfortable by ______.A. talking about fashionsB. playing football togetherC. sending a small gift to herD. saying yes to her questions38、 One way to make people get into the habit of saying yes is to ______.A. ask them to say what they likeB. tell them to do anything you wantC. help them feel confident in themselvesD. get them to say yes to a lot of your questions39、 According to the last paragraph, the author believes that ______.A. it is right to do anything in businessB. it is useless to believe in what customers sayC. it is unfair to take too much advantage of peopleD. it is dangerous to listen to the advice of a salesman40、 Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Most women like to talk about sports events.B. Some business people would do anything to sell.C. It's difficult to understand other people very well.D. You can make people do anything by talking with them. Passage 2When it comes to human resources, hiring highly-skilled staff is not usually enough for a company to function successfully. Besides the knowledge in their particular fields, employees must always have additional skills—those of co-operation. In the case that work tasks can only be carried out by communicating with people, accepting common decisions, solving problems, sharing information and helping one another, teamwork skills are vital. While some jobs may require talent, the ability to work as a team is learned. There are no complicated formulas; you don't need to have any special qualities or exceptional mental abilities. Individuals can be effective as a team if they have developed certain behaviors or habits of communication. Many companies, clubs and organizations use team building activities. Team building activities may include a number of teamwork elements. They are aimed at encouraging active participation in task accomplishment while all members have their roles as individuals and are able to co-operate towards a common goal as a team.Many team building activities focus on problem solving and discussing team issues; thus argument as a way to common consensus (共识) is encouraged. Team building activities often involve recognition and identification of team member skills, talents, knowledge, and experiences which allow the team members to learn more about each other and fully utilize those skills where appropriate. Many team activities are focused on developing keys to trust during challenging times.41、 In the author's opinion, which of the following is vital for a company to be successful?A. Specialized knowledge.B. Highly-skilled staff.C. Exceptional talent.D. Teamwork skills.42、 According to the second paragraph, co-operation skills ______.A. require special qualities and abilitiesB. are learned while working in a teamC. need exceptional mental abilitiesD. are quite complicated to learn43、 Team building activities are good for ______.A. hiring employees with special talentB. encouraging employees to co-operateC. helping employees work independentlyD. training employees in their special fields44、 Why are team members encouraged to argue in team building activities?A. To come to an agreement.B. To identify their own skills.C. To learn more about the company.D. To build up their own confidence.45、 What is the best title of the passage?A. Team BuildingB. Problem SolvingC. Communication SkillsD. Company Management Passage 3Five years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. "I was a clothes addict(迷)," he jokes. "I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes got wrinkled(皱的)." Today David wears casual clothes—khaki pants and a sports shirt—to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. "I'm working harder than ever," David says, "and I need to feel comfortable."More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the changes from formal to casual office wear have been slow. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their workers to wear casual clothes on Friday (but only on Friday). This became known as "dress-down Friday" or "casual Friday". "What started out as an extraone-day-a-week benefit for workers has really become an everyday thing," said business adviser Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their workers to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it's easier for a company to attract new workers if it has a casual dress code. "A lot of young people don't want to dress up for work," says the owner of a software company, "so it's hard to hire people if you have a conservative dress code." Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study made by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that casual dress improves employee morale. Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a side effect on work. Supporters of casual office wear also say that a casual dress code helps them save money. "Suits are expensive, if you have to wear one every day," one person said. "For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes."46、 David Smith refers to himself as having been "a clothes addict" because ______.A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB. he couldn't stand a clean appearanceC. he wanted his clothes to look tidy and clean all the timeD. he didn't want to spend much money on clothes47、 David Smith wears casual clothes now, because ______.A. they make him feel at ease when workingB. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC. he looks handsome in casual clothesD. he no longer works for any company48、 According to this passage, which of the following is FALSE?A. Many workers don't like a conservative dress code.B. Comfortable clothes make workers more productive.C. A casual clothes code is welcomed by young workers.D. All the employers in the U.S. are for casual office wear.49、 According to this passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Company workers started to dress down about twenty years ago.B. Dress-down has become an everyday phenomenon since the early 1990s.C. "Dress-down Friday" was first given as a favor from employers.D. Many workers want to wear casual clothes to impress people.50、 In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT ______.A. saving worker's moneyB. making workers more attractiveC. improving worker's feelingD. making workers happierPassage 4Many things about language are a mystery, and many will always remain so. But some things we do know.First, we know that all men in the world have a language of some sort. There is no race of men anywhere on earth so backward that it has no language. And, in historical times, there has never been a race of men without a language. Second, there is no such thing as a primitive language. There are many peoples whose cultures are undeveloped, who are, as we say, uncivilized, but the languages they speak are not primitive. In all known languages we can see complexities that must have been tens of thousands of years in developing. This has not always been well understood; indeed, the direct contrary has often been stated. Popular ideas of the language of the American Indians will illustrate. Many people have supposed that the Indians communicated in a very primitive way. Study has proved this to be nonsense. There are, or were, hundreds of American Indian languages, and all of them turn out to be very complicated and very old. They are certainly different from the languages that most of us are familiar with, but they are no more primitive than English and Greek.A third thing we know about language is that all languages are perfectly adequate. That is, each one is a perfect means of expressing the culture of the people who speak the language.Finally, we know that language changes. It is natural and normal for language to change; the only languages which do not change are the dead ones. This is easy to understand if we look backward in time. Change goes on in all aspects of language. Grammatical features change as do speech sounds, and changes in vocabulary are sometimes very extensive and may occur very rapidly. Vocabulary is the least stable part of any language.51、 What can be inferred from the second paragraph?A. Some backward race of men doesn't have a language of their own.B. Some race of men in history didn't possess a language of their own.C. Any human race, whether backward or not, has a language.D. Some race of men on earth can communicate without language.52、 What kind of language can peoples of undeveloped cultures have?A. Complicated.B. Uncivilized.C. Primitive.D. Well-known.53、 People used to think Indians communicated ______.A. with complicated languageB. in a primitive wayC. with hand gesturesD. through body movements54、 What does the word "adequate" (Line 1, Para. 4) most probably mean?A. Primitive.B. Unique.C.Sufficient. D. Proper.55、 According to the author, language changes are most likely to occur in ______.A. grammarB. pronunciationC. vocabularyD. intonationⅣ．Writing56、Directions: For this part, you're required to write a composition on the topic Raising Pets.

You should choose the one that best fits into the passage.To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your students; you must be a 21 speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to 22 what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear. 23 a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still 24 his class: he stands the whole time when he is teaching; he walks about, using his 25 , hands and fingers to help him in his explanations, and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will 26 the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is 27 about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't mean that he will indeed be able to act 28 on the stage, for there are very important 29 between the teacher's work and the actor's. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the 30 words each time he plays a certain part; 31 his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem 32 on the stage.A good teacher 33 in quite a different way. His students take an active part in his 34 ; they ask and answer questions; they obey orders; and if they don't understand something, they will say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his students. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must 35 it as he goes along.21、 A. clear B. slow C. quick D. loud22、 A. act B. talk C. say D. repeat23、 A. Listen B. Look C. Watch D.

Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer.Passage 1Being a salesman, the most important thing is to understand people. You've got to know what they're thinking. If you can figure that out, you cab get them to do a lot. They come in with an idea about what they want. You get them talking about themselves, about what they like.If it's a man, you talk about football, or something like that. If it's a woman, you ask her about fashions. That way they get comfortable with you. You ask them a lot of questions and get them saying yes. Then they just get into the habit of saying yes.In the end, you can put them into anything you want, if you're really good. For example, if they need a little ear for the city, you send them home a truck. Of course, I wouldn't really do that. It wouldn't be right. You've got to sell on this job, but you also have to be fair. It's not fair to take advantage of people too much. There are some people in this business who'd do anything.
