The body needs them for life and health. So naturally, many people are concerned with the question: Am I getting enough vitamins, and am I getting the right kind2 Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis. And this has something to do with their diet — the food they take in. A person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed with the possible exception of vitamin D. The problem is that there are many people who don’t choose foods wisely, don’t get enough variety, and don’t eat the basic foods they need to get their v itamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not be stored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them. It is even harmful to put too much of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in.3 What foods supply what vitamins Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1 which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. Vitamin B2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps bones and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certainfruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.1. Our body needs ___A___ for life and health.A) small amounts of each vitamin B) extra vitaminsC) all vitamins except vitamin D D) large amounts of certain vitamins2. C Vitamin A is needed by___C_ and can be found in ______.A) bones, pork B) nervous system, milkC) eyes, green vegetables D) teeth, meats3. A Vitamin B1 is very important to __A____.A) the digestive system B) bones C) liver D) skin4. What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need DA) They will do great harm to our body. B) We get all the vitamins needed.C) Our body will function more properly. D) Our body simply gets rid of them.5. The passage has probably been taken from _B_____.A) a sports magazine B) a journal of medical scienceC) an aged magazine D) a youth journalPassage Two1 Many centuries ago, a group of Jews (犹太人) landed in India and immediately went to the king. They told him that they were lost and wanted to settle in his kingdom.2 In those days any foreigner was viewed with suspicion (怀疑), so the king was hesitant about letting them in. He sent for one glass of milk and one glass of water. He asked the leader of the Jews to taste the milk. Then he poured out some milk and added some water. He asked the leader to taste the milk again and said, “What is the difference in taste”3The leader said, “The second time the milk tastes terrible.” “That is because of the water added to the milk,” said the king.“The water dilutes the milk and spoils its taste. So too your addition (加入) will s poil the kingdom.” The leader of the Jews thought for a moment and asked for another glass of milk. He then added sugar to the milk and asked the king to taste it. “It tastes sweet,” said the king.4The leader of the Jews bowed his head and said, “Oh, ki ng！That is how we would like to live here：as the small amount of sugar which sweetens the large quantity of milk and not as the water which dilutes the milk.” Pleased with him the king granted them perm ission to stay.6. The leader of the Jews went to the king because ___C_____ for life and health.A) they wanted to ask directions B) they wanted to drink some milk C) they wanted to live there D) they wanted to go through the kingdom7. Why was the king hesitant AA) Because he was suspicious of the foreigners.B) Because in those days any foreigner was viewed as a bad guy.C) Because he thought the Jews would rob them of their milk.D) Because Jews were not trusty.8. The king asked the leader of the Jews to taste the milk added with water just to show that __B______.A) the taste was terrible B) if the Jews joined them, they would destroy the countryC) the taste was different from the pure milk D) the taste was sweet9.

The passage implies that the leader of the Jews was ____B____.A) humorous B) witty C) foolish D) unbelievablePassage Three1 Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning Do you sometimes oversleep Are you often late for work or school Yes Then Hiroyuki Sugiyama of Japan has a special bed for you. Hiroyuki’s bed will get you up in the morning! Here is how it works:2 The bed is connected to an alarm clock. First, the alarm clock rings. You have a few minutes to wake up. Next, a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music or other pleasant sounds. A few minutes later, a second recording plays. The second recording can be loud music or unpleasant sounds. If you don’t get up after the second recording, you’ll be sorry. A mechanical “foot” is in the bed. The mechanical foot kicks yo u in the head. Then the bed waits a few more minutes. What! You’re still in bed! Slowly, the top of the bed rises hi gher and higher. The foot of the bed goes lower and lower. Finally, the bed is vertical. You slide off the bed and onto the floor. You are awake and out of bed.3 Hiroyuki made his bed because he wanted to win a contest. He works for Honda Motor Company. Once every two years, Honda has a contest—the “All Honda Idea Contest”.

D) Because he sometimes overslept.15. Who is Hiroyuki BA) A scientist. B) A company worker. C) An inventor. D) A carpenter.Passage 41 Each of us fails from time to time. If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary part of the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we deny this same right to our children. We tell them that failure is something to be ashamed of, that nothing but top performance will meet with our approval.2 When I see a child subject to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie, my youngest third-grader，he was a shy, nervous perfectionist. His fear of failure kept him from classroom games that other children played with joyous abandon. He seldom answered questions — he might be wrong. Written assignments, especially math, reduced him to nail-biting frustration. He seldom finished his work because he repeatedly checked with me to be sure he hadn't made a mistake3 I tried my best to build his self-confidence. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned to our classroom. She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included, adored her. But even enthusiastic, loving Mary was baffled by this little boy who feared of making mistake.4 Then one morning we were working math problems at the blackboard. Donnie had copied the problems with painstaking neatness and filled in answers for the first row. Pleased with his progress, I left the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in tears. He'd missed the third problem.5 Mary looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face brightened. From the desk we shared, she got a canister of pencils.6“Look, Donnie,” she said, kneeling beside him and gently lifting the tear-stained face from his arms. She placed the pencils on his desk. “See these pencils, Donnie” she continued. “They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are worn That's because we make mistakes too, lots of them. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That’s what you must learn to do, too.”7She kissed him and stood up. “Here,” she said, “I’ll leave one pencil to you so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, even teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and just a glimmer of a smile.8The pencil became Donnie’s prize. That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement and unfailing praise for even Donnie’s small successes, gradually persuaded him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again.16. In the author’s opinion, we should consider failures _C_______.A) a shame可耻的 B) mistakes错误的 C) acceptable可接受的 D) accessible方便的17. Donnie is a perfectionist, which means he __A______.A) cannot afford any mistakes B) often makes mistakes C) is always perfect D) seldom makes any mistakes18. Mary Anne was puzzled by Donnie because __D______.A) he bit his nails B) he adored her C) he made mistakes in math problems D) his fear of making mistakes19. Mary changed Donnie after ___A_____.A) giving him a pencil B) kneeling beside him and lifting his face from his armsC) persuading hi m that it’s ok to make mistakes D) erasing his mistakes20. This article tells us that __D______.A) the influence of a teacher is important to a student老师的影响是重要的一个学生B) there are growing pains in a student’s life这是一个学生的生命成长的烦恼C) you should erase your mistakes and try again你应该删除你的错误并再次尝试D) making mistakes is not such a big deal, as long as you try again 犯错并不是什么大不了的，只要你再试试。

大学英语（2）期末考试复习资料模拟题一、阅读：( 1 )A young man who lived in London was in love with a beautiful girl. Soon she became his fiancée （未婚妻）. The man was very poor while the girl was rich. The young man wanted to make her a present on her birthday. He wanted to buy something beautiful for her, but he had no idea how to do it, as he had very little money. The next morning he went to a shop. There were many fine things there: gold watches, diamond… but all these things were too expensive. There was one thing he could not take his eyes off. It was a beautiful vase. That was a suitable present for his fiancée. He had been looking at the vase for half an hour when the manager of the shop noticed him. The young man looked so pale, sad and unhappy that the manager asked what had happened to him.The young man told him everything. The manager felt sorry for him and decided to help him. A bright idea struck him. The manager pointed to the corner of the shop. To his great surprise the young man saw a vase broken into many pieces. The manager said: "When the servant enters the room, he will drop it."On the birthday of his fiancée the young man was very excited. Everything happened as had been planned. The servant brought in the vase, and as he entered the room, he dropped it. There was horror on everybody's face. When the box was opened, the guests saw that each piece was packed separately.1.

Why did the shop manager come to talk to the young man?A. He looked very excited.B. He was poorly dressed.C. He looked pale and sad.D. He said he wanted to buy a beautiful vase.5. On the birthday of his fiancée, the young man was excited because ____.A. the girl was in love with himB. the girl looked beautifulC. he was not sure whether his trick would be seen throughD. the girl was happy and gay( 2 )A few years ago it was common to speak of a generation gap between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come.6. The first paragraph tells us that ______.A. the problem of the generation gap draws much attention from peopleB. it is out of date to talk about the generation gapC. children and parents are trying to understand each otherD. it is very important for people to frequently communicate with each other7. In a more traditional society, old people_______.A. have their children respect and listen to themB. do not care for their children at allC. expect their children to rebel against themD. do not live together with their children8. In American society young people________.A. do not need to find jobsB. leave home at an early ageC. have better education than their parentsD. marry people younger than them9. Which of the following is NOT the cause of the generation gap?A. Young people like to depend more on themselves.B. Parents do not love their children dearly.C. American society changes rapidly.D. Parents expect too much of their children.10. The main idea of the passage is ________.A. that the generation gap needs consideringB. when the generation gap is necessary in American societyC. why the generation gap existD. how we can reduce the generation gap二、交际用语(此部分共有10个未完成的对话，针对每个对话中未完成的部分有4个选项，请从A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出一个最佳选项。

You are awake and out of bed.Hiroyuki make his bed because he wanted to win a contest. He w orks for Honda Motor Company. Once every two years, Honda has a con test —the “All Honda Idea Contest”.

In 1973, over 500 organizations had adopted the idea, and by 1974, its number had risen to over 200,000.Flexible working hours were invented in Germany in the late 196 0s but reached Britain only in 1972. The system allows workers to s tart and finish work whenever they want, with only two requirements. These are, firstly, that all workers must be present for certain“k ey”times in the day and secondly, that all workers must work an a greed total number of hours per week.The system has proved an almost total success wherever it has been tried. A survey of 700 workers on flexible hours showed three main advantages: a better balance between working and private life, a voidance of the need to travel during rush hours, and the ability t o be able to finish a certain task before leaving.From the employers’point of view, the system tends to increase productivity, reduce labor turnover and give the worker a greater s ense of duty.11.According to the passage, the _________invented the “flexible working hours”.A. JapaneseB. AmericansC. GermansD. British12. The phrase “catch on”(in Para. 1) most probably means ________ _.A. understandB. become popularC. perceiveD. seize13. What is one of the advantages of “flextime”for workers?A. They can earn more moneyB. They can avoid busy traffic.C. They will do less work.D. They can avoid working hard.14. Which one is NOT an advantage of “flextime”for employers?A. A better balance between working and private life.B. It reduces labor turnover.C. It gives the workers a greater sense of duty.D. It tends to increase productivity.15. The author _________“flextime”according to the passage.A. supportsB. is againstC. criticizesD. hatesPassage 3Human beings, however, have something that no animal has. Human beings have the ability to express their actions, feelings and ideas through words. They can also write words down in order to communicat e past events and to send messages to people far away.Even though some birds have learned to repeat words, they d o not understand the meaning of the words, and therefore they cannot use them to communicate ideas.How did man first learn to speak? Perhaps we shall never k now. However, we do know that as man’s knowledge increased he needed to use more sounds in order to express a greater number of feelin gs and ideas. It became necessary for him to communicate about a gr eater number of things. He began to make more and more different so unds, and gradually he put these sounds together to form, first, wor ds, then groups of words, and then sentences. In different parts of t he world, people developed their own systems of sounds and words. To day, we call these systems ”languages”.There are now about five thousand different languages and di alects in the world, and each of them contains many thousands of wo rds.16. Why can’t some birds use words to communicate ideas though they have learned to repeat them?A. Because they don’t understand the meaning of the words.B. Because they cannot put them into sentences.C. Because they cannot remember them.D. Because they don’t often use them.17. How did human beings first learn languages?A. Maybe nobody will know.B. Surely we’ll know later.C. Certainly nobody knows.D. Perhaps we have known.18. Why did man need to use more sounds as man’s knowledge increase d?A. In order to form words.B. In order to communicate about more things.C. In order to develop a language.D. In order to sing songs.19. What are languages?A. They are sounds.B. They are w ords.C. They are systems of sounds and words.D. They are letters.20. How many languages are there in the world?A. 15, 000.B. 5,000.C. 500.D. 50,000. Passage 4Thomas Alva Edison was awarded more patents on inventions than any other American. When he died in 1931, Americans wondered how the y could best show their respect for him.One suggestion was that the nation observe a minute or two of total blackout. All electric power would be shut off in homes, stree ts, and factories.Perhaps this suggested plan made Americans realized fully what Ed ison and his inventions meant to them. Electric power was too import ant to the country. Shutting it off for even a short time would ha ve led to complete confusion. A blackout was out of the question. On the day of Edision’s funeral, many people silently dimmed their l ights.

Pruning involves the cutting away of overgrown and unwanted branches, and the inexperienced gardener can be encouraged bythe thought that more damage results from doing it unnecessarily than from leaving the tr ee to grow in its own way.First, pruning may be done to make sure that trees have a desired shape or size.The obj ect may be to get a tree of the right height, and at the same time to help the growth of sm all side branches, which will thicken its appearance or give it a special shape. Secondly, pru ning may be done to make the tree healthier. You may cut out diseased or dead wood, or b ranches that are rubbing against each other and thus causing wounds. The health of a tree may be encouraged by removing branches that are blocking up the center and so preventi ng the free movement of air.One result of pruning is that an open wound is left on the tree and this provides an easy entry for disease, but it is a wound that will heal. Often there is a race between the healin g and the disease as to whether the tree will live or die, so that there is a period when the tree is at risk. It should be the aim of every gardener to reduce that risk of death as far as possible. It is essential to make the area, which has been pruned, smooth and clean, for h ealing will be slowed down by roughness. You should allow the cut surface to dry for a few hours and then paint it with one of the substances available from garden shops produced e specially for this purpose. Pruning is usually done in winter, for then you can see the shape of the tree clearly without interference from the leaves and it is, too, very unlikely that the cuts you make will bleed. If this does happen, it is, of course, impossible to paint them pr operly.1. Pruning may be done to ______.A. make the tree grow tallerB. improve the shape of the treeC. get rid of the small branchesD. make the small branches thicker2. Trees become unhealthy if a gardener _____.A. allows too many branches to grow in the middleB. does not protect them from the windC. forces them to grow too quicklyD. damages some of the small side branches3. A special substance is painted on the tree ______.A. to make a wound smoothB. to prevent disease entering a woundC. to cover a rough surfaceD. to help a wound to dry4. A good gardener prunes a tree ______.A. at intervals throughout the yearB. as quickly as possibleC. occasionally when necessaryD. regularly every winter5. What was the writer's purpose when writing this passage?A. To give practical instructions for pruning a tree.B. To give a general description of pruning.C. To explain how trees develop diseases.D. To discuss different methods of pruning.答案：BABCB(2)、 In every society it is necessary to have a general system of laws to ensure justice. Laws are designed to make certain that people's rights are protected and that people resp ect each other's rights. Sometimes, however, laws are passed which are specific to a time or situation. For example, a town in Indiana once passed a law making it illegal to shoot op en a can of food. Apparently, some gun-carrying citizens forgot their can openers and natu rally enough, used their guns to do the job. This disturbed other citizens, and endangered t heir lives, so a law was passed to prevent it.Specific laws sometimes remain in existence long after the problem has disappeared. Th e laws then seem strange. For example, the Indiana law was no longer necessary when citi zens stopped carrying guns and using them as can openers. Since the law was no longer n eeded, what once made sense now seems like nonsense.Sometimes laws designed to serve a good purpose were passed but somehow these bec ame mixed up in their wording. As a result, the laws don't make sense. In one state there i s a law which says that it is "illegal to move or to attempt to move a motor vehicle." Obvio usly, a massive traffic jam would occur if everyone suddenly obeyed that law. But no one d oes, of course, because the intention of the law was not to prevent owners from moving th eir own cars. It was to prevent people from moving (stealing) other people's cars.It is often harder to repeal (废止)a law than to pass one, so many of these old laws remain in existence. Because they no longer fit the way people live or because the problem no longer exists, these laws are igno red. Everyone understands that and life goes on. Thus, laws that once made very good sen se now seem like nonsense.1. According to the passage, laws are designed for the purpose of ____________.A. protecting people's rightsB. making people respect each otherC. preventing gun-carryingD. punishing criminals2. The word "job " in paragraph 1 refers to ___________.A. workingB. shootingC. preventing gun-carryingD. disturbing others3. The author used the Indiana law as an example to explain _________.A. how some laws are passed and changedB. how people in Indiana open cansC. why some laws may seem strangeD. why people in Indiana no longer use their guns4. What's the problem with the law concerning motor vehicles?A. It leads to traffic jams.B. It is not clearly written.C. It is not designed to serve a good purpose.D. It has been out of date.5. We can conclude from the passage that ___________.A. a law system is necessary for every societyB. some laws that don't make sense may also get passedC. it is more difficult to change the old law than pass a new oneD. some laws may seem strange as time passes答案：ACCBD(3)、 Trees should only be pruned when there is a good and clear reason for doing so a nd, fortunately, the number of such reasons is small.

The body needs them for life and health. So naturally, many people are concerned with the question: Am I getting enough vitamins, and am I getting the right kind 2 Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis. And this has something to do with their diet — the food they take in. A person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed with the possible exception of vitamin D. The problem is that there are many people who don’t choose foods wisely, don’t get enough variety, and don’t eat the basic foods they need to get their vitamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not be stored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them. It is even harmful to put too much of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in. 3 What foods supply what vitamins Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1 which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. Vitamin B2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps bones and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certainfruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.1. Our body needs ___A___ for life and health.A) small amounts of each vitamin B) extra vitaminsC) all vitamins except vitamin D D) large amounts of certain vitamins2. C Vitamin A is needed by___C_ and can be found in ______.A) bones, pork B) nervous system, milkC) eyes, green vegetables D) teeth, meats3. A Vitamin B1 is very important to __A____.A) the digestive system B) bones C) liver D) skin4. What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need DA) They will do great harm to our body. B) We get all the vitamins needed.C) Our body will function more properly. D) Our body simply gets rid of them.5. The passage has probably been taken from _B_____.A) a sports magazine B) a journal of medical scienceC) an aged magazine D) a youth journalPassage Two1 Many centuries ago, a group of Jews (犹太人) landed in India and immediately went to the king. They told him that they were lost and wanted to settle in his kingdom.2 In those days any foreigner was viewed with suspicion (怀疑), so the king was hesitant about letting them in. He sent for one glass of milk and one glass of water. He asked the leader of the Jews to taste the milk. Then he poured out some milk and added some water. He asked the leader to taste the milk again and said, “What is the difference in taste ”3 The leader said, “The second time the milk tastes terrible.” “That is because of the water added to the milk,” said the king. “The water dilutes the milk and spoils its taste. So too your addition (加入) will spoil the kingdom.” The leader of the Jews thought for a moment and asked for another glass of milk. He then added sugar to the milk and asked the king to taste it. “It tastes sweet,” said the king.4 The leader of the Jews bowed his head and said, “Oh, king！That is how we would like to live here：as the small amount of sugar which sweetens the large quantity of milk and not as the water which dilutes the milk.” Pleased with him the king granted them permission to stay.6. The leader of the Jews went to the king because ___C_____ for life and health.A) they wanted to ask directions B) they wanted to drink some milk C) they wanted to live there D) they wanted to go through the kingdom7. Why was the king hesitant AA) Because he was suspicious of the foreigners.B) Because in those days any foreigner was viewed as a bad guy.C) Because he thought the Jews would rob them of their milk.D) Because Jews were not trusty.8. The king asked the leader of the Jews to taste the milk added with water just to show that __B______.A) the taste was terrible B) if the Jews joined them, they would destroy the countryC) the taste was different from the pure milk D) the taste was sweet9. The underlined word “dilutes” means _____D___.A) reduce B) weaken C) make less delicious D) make (a liquid) thinner by adding another liquid such as water10. The passage implies that the leader of the Jews was ____B____.A) humorous B) witty C) foolish D) unbelievablePassage Three1 Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning Do you sometimes oversleep Are you often late for work or school Yes Then Hiroyuki Sugiyama of Japan has a special bed for you. Hiroyuki’s bed will get you up in the morning! Here is how it works:2 The bed is connected to an alarm clock. First, the alarm clock rings. You have a few minutes to wake up. Next, a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music or other pleasant sounds. A few minutes later, a second recording plays. The second recording can be loud music or unpleasant sounds. If you don’t get up after the second recording, you’ll be sorry. A mechanical “foot” is in the bed. The mechanical foot kicks you in the head. Then the bed waits a few more minutes. What!

If we are wise, we accept these failures as a necessary part of the learning process. But all too often as parents and teachers we deny this same right to our children. We tell them that failure is something to be ashamed of, that nothing but top performance will meet with our approval.2 When I see a child subject to this kind of pressure, I think of Donnie, my youngest third-grader，he was a shy, nervous perfectionist. His fear of failure kept him from classroom games that other children played with joyous abandon. He seldom answered questions — he might be wrong. Written assignments, especially math, reduced him to nail-biting frustration. He seldom finished his work because he repeatedly checked with me to be sure he hadn't made a mistake3 I tried my best to build his self-confidence. But nothing changed until midterm, when Mary Anne, a student teacher, was assigned to our classroom. She was young and pretty, and she loved children. My pupils, Donnie included, adored her. But even enthusiastic, loving Mary was baffled by this little boy who feared of making mistake.4 Then one morning we were working math problems at the blackboard. Donnie had copied the problems with painstaking neatness and filled in answers for the first row. Pleased with his progress, I left the children with Mary Anne and went for art materials. When I returned, Donnie was in tears. He'd missed the third problem.5 Mary looked at me in despair. Suddenly her face brightened. From the desk we shared, she got a canister of pencils.6 “Look, Donnie,” she said, kneeling beside him and gently lifting the tear-stained face from his arms. She placed the pencils on his desk. “See these pencils, Donnie ” she continued. “They belong to Mrs. Lindstrom and me. See how the erasers are worn That's because we make mistakes too, lots of them. But we erase the mistakes and try again. That’s what you must learn to do, too.”7 She kissed him and stood up. “Here,” she said, “I’ll leave one pencil to you so you’ll remember that everybody makes mistakes, even teachers.” Donnie looked up with love in his eyes and just a glimmer of a smile.8 The pencil became Donnie’s prize. That, together with Mary Anne’s frequent encouragement and unfailing praise for even Donnie’s small successes, gradually persuaded him that it’s all right to make mistakes — as long as you erase them and try again.16. In the author’s opinion, we should consider failures _C_______.A) a shame 可耻的 B) mistakes错误的 C) acceptable 可接受的 D) accessible方便的17. Donnie is a perfectionist, which means he __A______.A) cannot afford any mistakes B) often makes mistakes C) is always perfect D) seldom makes any mistakes18.

Mary changed Donnie after ___A_____.A) giving him a pencil B) kneeling beside him and lifting his face from his armsC) persuading him that it’s ok to make mistakesD) erasing his mistakes20. This article tells us that __D______.A) the influence of a teacher is important to a student老师的影响是重要的一个学生B) there are growing pains in a student’s life这是一个学生的生命成长的烦恼C) you should erase your mistakes and try again你应该删除你的错误并再次尝试D) making mistakes is not such a big deal, as long as you try again 犯错并不是什么大不了的，只要你再试试。

Besides its persuasive powers, eye contact helps hold listener interest. A successful speaker must maintain eye contact with an audience. To have good rapport (关系) with listener, a speaker should maintain direct eye contact for at least 75 percent of the time. Some speakers focus exclusively (唯一的) on their notes. Others gaze over the heads of their listeners. Both are likely to lose audience interest and esteem. People who maintain eye contact while speaking, whether from a podium (演讲台) or from across the table, are ―regarded not only as exceptionally well-disposed by their target but also as more believable and earnest.‖To show the potency (力量，效应) of eye contact in daily life, we have only to consider how passers-by behave when their glances happen to meet on the street. At one extreme are those people who feel obliged to smile when they make eye contact. At the other extreme are those who feel awkward and immediately look away. To make eye contact, it seems, is to make a certain link with someone.Eye contact with an audience also lets a speaker know and monitor the listeners. It is, in fact, essential for analyzing an audience during a speech. Visual cues (暗示) from audience members can indicate that a speech is dragging, that the speaker is dwelling on (to think, speak, or write a lot about) a particular point for too long, or that a particular point requires further explanation. Aswe have pointed out, visual feedback from listeners should play an important role in shaping a speech as it is delivered.1. This passage is mainly concerned with ______.A. the importance of eye contactB. the potency of nonverbal techniquesC. successful speech deliveryD. an effective way to gain visual feedback2. According to the passage, a good speaker must ______.A. ―sell‖ his or her ideas to an audienceB. maintain direct eye contact with listenersC. be very persuasive and believableD. be exceptionally well-disposed3. The word ―target‖ in the last sentence of the first paragraph can best be replaced by ______.A. ―destination‖B. ―goal‖C. ―audience‖D. ―followers‖4. In daily life, when the glances of two passers-by happen to meet, these two persons will inevitably (不可避免地) ______.A. smile to each otherB. feel awkward and look away immediatelyC. try to make a conversation with each otherD. none of the above5. Eye contact with an audience, according to the author, has all the following benefits for the speaker except that it doesn’t ______.A. help the speaker to control the audienceB. help the speaker to gain audience interest and esteemC. help the speaker to know whether he is talking too much about a certain pointD. help the speaker to analyze his audience when he is beginning his speechPassage 2There is a new type of small advertisement becoming increasingly common in newspaper classified columns. It is sometimes placed among ―situation vacant‖, and sometime s it appears among ―situation wanted‖. What it does is to offer help in applying for a job.―Contact us before writing your application‖, is how it is usually expressed. The growth and apparent success of such a specialized service is, of course, a reflection on the current high levels of unemployment. It is, also an indication of the growing importance of the curriculum vitae (简历).There was a time when job seekers simply wrote letters of application. ―Just put down your name, address, age and whether you have passed any exams‖, was about the average level of advice offered to young people applying for their first jobs when I left school. It was explained, everything else could and should be saved for the interview. And in those days of full employment the technique worked. The letter proved that you could write and were available for work. Your eager face and intelligent replies did the rest.Later, as you moved up the ladder, something slightly more sophisticated was called for. The advice then was to put something in the letter which would distinguish you from the rest. It might be the aggressive approach. ―Your search is over, I am the person you are looking for,‖ wasa widely used trick that occasionally succeeded.There is no doubt, however, that it is the increasing number of applicants with university education at all points in the process of engaging staff that led to the greater importance of the curriculum vitae.1. The purpose of this new type of advertisement is ______.A. to offer advice to job-huntersB. to provide jobs for unemployed peopleC. to tell people where they can get well-paid jobsD. to inform employers of how important curriculum vitae are2. The success of this specialized service makes people think badly of ______.A. newspaper advertisementsB. current high levels of unemploymentC. job-seekers competing for jobsD. employers who are indifferent to job-hunters3. What did a job-hunter do in the past?A. He just wrote a letter of application informing the employer of his education.B. He telephoned the employers informing that he would like to take the job.C. He first filled out a job application and then had an interview with the employer.D. He first wrote an application letter and then had an interview with the employer.4. It can be inferred from the selection that in the past ______.A. jobs were hard to getB. jobs were easy to obtainC. a lot of people were unemployedD. few people wanted to take part-time jobs5. The curriculum vitae becomes important for a person when he hunts a job because ______.A. jobs are not so easy to obtain as they were in the pastB. there has been an increase in the number of jobs advertisedC. there has been an increase in the number of applicants with university educationsD. other ways of applying for jobs are more complicatedPassage 3A famous scientist and inventor, Hero of Alexandria, who lived in ancient times, stated that there are five simple machines: the lever, the wedge (楔), the screw, the wheel, and the pulley (滑轮).These several devices can be called simple machines. They are built of two or more parts for the purpose of performing a task. But today we consider these devices not as separate machines but as important parts of more complex machines.In the days of ancient Greece there was little reason to invent machines to do man’s work because there was no great need for them. Slave labor had bee n plentiful since man’s early history. We have no actual records to tell us how slavery came into existence. Perhaps the first slaves were prisoners of war, who were put to work to help with the crops and other tasks. In the late 18th century, however, the ideas of human dignity (尊严) and liberty were developed and accepted. That was the beginning of the end of slavery.The awakening spirit of personal freedom and of exploration, along with the perfecting of thesteam engine in 1765, prepared Europe for new things. At the same time there came the desire to develop a whole new continent, North America. Here engineers met new conditions of climate and great size.Engineers work mostly with metals, particularly steel. Their work is the building of machines, plants, buildings, bridges, and ships. For this work, the engineer has developed various tools used by mechanics —people who are skilled in using tools or in making, operating, and repairing power–driven machines. These tools form a large and varied family, called machine tools. They are listed either as metal-cutting machines or metal- forming machines.1. The five simple machines mentioned in the first paragraph are regarded as ______.A. parts of more complicated machines in GreeceB. a part of a more complex machine in AmericaC. parts of more complicated machines nowadaysD. a part of a separate device2. The passage tells us that the great number of slaves in ancient Greece ______.A. made machines unnecessaryB. stimulated the development of machinesC. made the invention of machines unreasonableD. made it impossible to invent machines3. What led to the end of slavery in 18th century?A. The invention of more machines.B. The idea of human rights.C. The mercy of the ruling class.D. The man’s reduced work.4. The ―new things‖ in the fourth paragraph most probably stands for ______.A. new explorationsB. new desiresC. new machinesD. new conditions5. According to the passage, the formation of the machine tools family is based on ______.A. farm workB. salves’ workC. man’s workD. engineers’ work三、词汇与结构1. It is not considered _______ to litter in public.A. respectiveB. respectingC. respectfulD. respectable2. My camera can be _______ to take pictures in cloudy or sunny conditions.A. adjustedB. accustomedC. adoptedD. allowed3. The writer’s choice of words in his writing is merely a matter of _______ style.A. personnelB. personalC. privateD. primary4.

AFor 30 years, Randy J. Murphy drove without being stopped by the police —and without a driver’s license (驾驶执照).The 46-year-old man’s luck came to an end last May. On his way home from his job as a dishwasher, he turned up the radio in the car.“I just turned the corner, and there was Mark,” Murphy said of the police officer who has since made such a difference in his life.Officer Mark Taylor had stopped the car as he heard the blaring (震耳的) music. When he asked for a driver’s license, Murphy said that he didn’t have one.Murphy told Taylor he couldn’t read well enough to tale the written part of the licensing test. “He said people just don’t help anymore. I told him if he was willing, I’d help him,” said Taylor. He gave Murphy his phone number. That afternoon Murphy called the officer.For the next three months, the men met several times a week to review the questions which might appear in the test. When Murphy took the test, Taylor went with him. Murphy passed on his sixth attempt (尝试). He then sailed through the road test. On September 5, he got his license.Taylor’s act of kindness won him the Officer of the Month award(奖) from the Knoxville Police Department. “People should help each other if they can,” Taylor said. “Randy did all the work. I just guided him along.”Although Murphy has overcome the difficulty that kept him from gettinga driver’s license, he hasn’t stopped there. “We still meet once a week toread,” Taylor said. “We’ve also become friends.”“I’m glad he pulled me over now,” said Murphy.29. Murphy was stopped by Taylor because_________.A. the music hi his car was too loudB. he drove without a driver’s licenseC. he made a wrong turn at a cornerD. he listened to the radio while driving30. After learning Murphy’s situation, Taylor decided ________.A. to put an end to his luckB. to help him learn how to readC. to take away his driver’s licenseD. to stop him from doing silly things31. In “he then sailed through the road test” sailed through is close in meaning to______.A. tried his best inB. nearly failed inC. suffered a lot inD. easily succeeded in32. According to Taylor, he helped Murphy pass the licensing test because_______.A. he felt sorry for the bad situation of the poorB. he wanted to win the Officer of the Month awardC. he hated to see people in need of help were not helpedD. he thought it was a policeman’s duty to help people readBYou start to introduce an old friend to someone, and suddenly you can’t remember that someone’s name even though you sense it is just there in your memory. Or you can’t quite bring back the name of a film you just saw. Such tip-of-the-tongue or TOT incidents happen to almost everyone, notesDeborah Burke, a scientist at Pomona College in Claremont, California.These lapses(失误) have nothing to do with remembering the meaning ofa word, but rather with its sound. “Often, the sound of a word is arbitrary (任意的) and senseless,” says Burke. This arbitrariness sometimes can make it difficult to bring back the word.The best way to prevent the problem is to use the name of a person or object as frequently as possible. “I tell people to do what salespeople often do-repeat people’s name several times just before you plan to see them,” says Liz Zelinski of the University of South California in Los Angeles.A TOT experience can seem worse when a similar-sounding(发音相似的)，but incorrect, word comes into your head unexpectedly and stays there.Burke tells the story of a student who was trying to remember the name of a particular car. The student wanted the word Winnebago, but she could only come up with rutabaga. When this happens, think of something else, suggests Burke. “If you stop feeling worried about it, the correct word sooner or later will come to you.”33. People sometimes find it hard to bring back a word they know well, for__________.A. it is impossible to remember every wordB. the pronunciation seldom matches the spellingC. some words do not have any exact meaningD. its sound is decided for no good reason34. TOT incidents are more likely to happen ________.A. with words similar in pronunciationB. with the name of a strange person or objectC. when a word you don’t like gets into your mindD. when you pay too much attention to certain subjects35. When you cannot come up with the right word you’re trying to remember,you may ______.A. think of more words of similar soundB. stop feeling worried but keep thinking of itC. do something else for a while and then try againD. forget it for the moment and pay attention to something elseCCopernicus was born in Torun, Poland, on February19, 1473. Little is known about his early life except that his father died when he was 10. An uncle adopted (收养) him, his two sisters, and his brother. The uncle saw to it that the two boys received a good education. Copernicus went to the University of Cracow. There he studied such subjects as Latin, mathematics, and astronomy. It was probably at that time that he changed his Polish name, Niklas Kopernigk, to the Latin form of Nicolaus Copernicus. In 1946 Copernicus went to Italy, where he spent the next 10 years studying at various universities.In Copernicus’ time people still believed that all things—the sun, the stars, and the planets—moved around the earth. It was an old belief that few men had ever questioned. Aristotle had based his theory of astronomy on his belief. Because the Church had long been the center of learning, the theory was also linked to religious (宗教的) beliefs.In 1506 Copernicus returned to his homeland. A few years later he began to work for the Church. All those years Copernicus carried on his work on astronomy. He had just the most basic equipment and, like other scientists of his day, made observations with only his eyes. Still, using mathematics and logic (逻辑)，Copernicus worked out a different theory, which held that the planets went around the sun.Copernicus did not announce his ideas. He did not want to make trouble. But he could not hide the scientific truth. So he talked about his theory withhis friends, who strongly advised him to have his work published. His great book. On the Revolution of the Heavenly Bodies appeared at the very end of his life. Copernicus saw the first copy on the day he died, May 24, 1543.36. Which of the following is TRUE about Copernicus?A. He had two brothers and a sisterB. He used to be called Niklas KopernigkC. He lost his father soon after he was bornD. He spent 10 years at the University of Cracow37. From the passage we can see that astronomy is _____________.A. the life experience of great menB. the movement of the stars and the planetsC. the scientific study of natural objects in spaceD. the theories developed by scientists of old times38. Copernicus developed his theory ________.A. using various telescopesB. based on Aristotle’s beliefsC. through observations and reasoningD. under the encouragement of his friends39. The writer of the passage wants us to know that ______________.A. Copernicus did not tell about his theory until the day of his deathB. for many years Copernicus dared to do nothing openly against the ChurchC. pushed by his friends Copernicus decided to write a book in May1543D. shortly before he got back to Poland Copernicus started to work for the ChurchDThere was a river with a small town on either side of it. The towns were linked by a bridge.One day，a hole appeared in the bridge. Both towns agreed that the holeshould be mended. However，disagreement came up as to who should mend it. Each town thought that it had a better reason for the other to mend the hole. The town on the right bank said that it was at the end of the road，so the left-bank town should mend the hole. The town on the left bank，on the other hand，insisted that all the traffic came to the right-bank town，so it was in their interest to mend the bridge.The quarrel went on and on，and so did the hole. The more it went on，the more the hostility between the two towns grew.One day a man fell into the hole and broke his leg. People from both towns questioned him closely about whether he was walking from the right bank to the left or from the left bank to the right，in order to decide which town should be blamed for the accident. But he could not remember，since he got drunk that night.. Some time later，a car was crossing the bridge and broke an axle（轴）because of the hole. Neither town paid any attention to the accident，as the traveler was not going from one to the other，but was merely passing through. The angry traveler got out of the car and asked why the hole was not mended.On hearing the reason，he declared，“I'll buy this hole. Who‘s the owner？”Both towns at once declared that they owned the hole.“One or the other，whoever owns the hole must prove it.”“How shall we prove it？”asked both sides.“That's simple. Only the owner of the hole has the right to mend it. I‘ll buy the hole from whoever mends the bridge.”People from both towns rushed to do the job while the traveler smoked a cigar and his driver changed the axle. They mended the bridge in no time and asked for the money for the hole.“What hole？”The traveler looked surprised. “I can't see any hole. I‘ve been looking for a hole for several years now. I'm prepared to pay a good price for it，but there’s no hole here. Are you pulling my leg or what？” He got into his car and drove off.40. What did the two towns quarrel about？ A. Which of them should mend the hole. B. Whether the hole should be mended. C. Why there was a hole in the bridge. D. When they should mend the hole.41. The man who had fallen into the hole failed to answer any questions because he ______. A. had one of his legs broken B. was busy changing the axle C. had drunk too much wine D. was afraid to blame anybody42. Both towns rushed to mend the hole in order to prove that ______. A. they owned the whole bridge B. they had the right to sell the hole C. they were able to mend the hole D. they could afford to mend the hole43. In “Are you pulling my leg or what？”，the phrase pulling my leg refers to ______.A. trying to stop meB. laughing at meC. putting me in troubleD. making fun of me三、翻译：分别将下面两句话翻译成中文和英文。
