江西专升本统考英语历年真题(2001-2010)
2001年江西省“专升本”英语统一考试试卷（120分钟）Part ⅠListening comprehension （20 points）(略)Part ⅡReading Comprehension （30 points）Directions:In this section there are four passages. Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.V ery few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through BritainD) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ______.A) try to catch the snakeB) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victimD) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders _______.A) normally friendly towards peopleB) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see themD) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually ______.A) move out of your pathB) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quicklyD) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, th eir cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don‟t have the extra money or who don‟t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will go bankrupt (破产); that is, it won‟t make enou gh money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out ofbusiness. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don‟t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that _______.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government‟s role In preventing pollutio nD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses‟ chance of making profit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission‟s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operation will soon be gone.In addition to cre ating a favorable business environment, the community‟s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community‟s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.

That started a debate over the wisdom of spending billons of dollars to keep nearly 2 million people locked up. According to statistics, the United States ends 1999 with 1,983,084 men and women in prisons. That shows an increase nearly 840,000 prisoners during the 1990s and makes the United States the country with the highest prison population in the world. With the cost of housing a prisoner at about $20,000 a year, the cost in 1999 keeping all these prisoners behind bar is about $39 billion.Some experts argue that the money is well spent, saying the cost of keeping prisoners behind back doesn‟t seem much in comparison to the cost of crime to society.

Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题，每题2分，共40分)Directions：In this part there are four passages．Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions．Read the passage and answer the questions．Then mark your answer On the answer sheet．Passage OneQuestions 1~5 are based on the following passage.Vegetable gardening is the relaxing art and science of turning a love for growing plants into a meaningful activity. Having vegetables in the backyard makes home gardening appealing for many people. In addition, vegetable gardening provides exercise and fun for both urban and suburban families.Vegetable gardeners agree that many home-grown vegetables are superior to those purchased from markets. From spring through late fall, a well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables, thus increasing the nutrition of the family diet.Freezers make it possible to keep some of the vegetables to be enjoyed at a later date. Other vegetables can be stored for a few months in a cool area.Although the money spent for a garden may be little, one cannot escape the fact that gardening requires hard work and time. Many of the gardening tasks must be performed at times that are most inconvenient. Not doing jobs that should be done on a regular basis may result in failure and a negative feeling toward gardening.One should not plant a garden that is too large for him to care for. A small, well-kept garden is more enjoyable and profitable than a large neglected one. Vegetables do well in full sunlight and need at least five or six hours of sun during the middle of the day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables. If possible, the garden should be near the house, so the gardener can work in it whenever they are free.Soils for vegetables should be easily broken up and porous (多孔的) for quick water drainage and good aeration (透气). Usually the home owner has little choice in the soil type he can choose. Fortunately, many vegetables can be grown on poor soils if the soils are properly prepared.1. Many people find home gardening____A. expensive and boringB. interesting and enjoyableC. time-consuming and inconvenientD. neither interesting nor enjoyable2. A well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of freshvegetables_____A. all year roundB. whenever you need nutritious foodC. for a greater part of the yearD. throughout spring3. The amount of money you spend on your garden ___A. can be largeB. must be largeC. can not be largeD. must not be small4. Which of the following statements is true?A. Vegetables need to have as much shading as possible:B. A small garden is much better than a large one.C. Homeowners can freely choose the soil for their vegetable garden.D. Whenever possible, the vegetable garden should be close to your home.5. From the passage we can conclude that_____A. vegetables need little care while growingB. vegetables can be grown on almost any kind of soilC. vegetable gardening is an indispensable part of life for urban andsuburban peopleD. vegetable gardening is a good pastime for retired peoplePassage TwoQuestions 6~10 are based on the following passage.In old days, when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something so shocking as to distract the serious work of an office, secretaries were men.Then came the First World War and the male secretaries were replaced by women. A man's secretary became his personal servant, in charge of remembering his wife's birthday and buying her presents; taking his suits to thedry-cleaners; telling lies on the telephone to keep away people he did not wish to speak to; and, of course, typing and filing and taking shorthand.Now all this may be changing again. The microchip (芯片) and high technology is sweeping the British office, taking with it much of the routine clerical (文书的) work that secretaries did. "Once office technology takes over generally, the status of the job will rise again because it will involve thehigh-tech work-and then men will want to do it again."That was said by one of the executives (male) of one of the biggest secretarial agencies in this country. What he has predicted is already under way in the U. S.Once high technology has made the job of secretary less routine (泛味的), will there be a male takeover? Men should be careful of thinking that they can walk right into the better jobs. There are a lot of women secretaries who will do the job as well as they--not just because they can buy negligees (妇女长睡衣) for the boss's wife, but because they are as efficient and well-trained to cope with word processors and computers as men.6. Before 1914 female secretaries were rare because they_____A. were less efficient and less trained than menB. were looked down upon by menC. would have disturbed the other office workersD. wore stockings and were not as serious as men7. A female secretary has been expected, besides other duties, to____A. be her boss's memoryB. do everything her boss asks her to doC. clean her boss's clothesD. telephone the boss's wife8. Secretaries, until recently, had to do a lot of work now done by____A. machinesB. other staffC. servantsD. wives9. A secretary in the future will __A. have more work to doB. be better paidC. have higher statusD. have less work to do10. The writer believes that before long __A. both men and women can act as secretariesB. men will be better than machinesC. men will take over women's jobs as secretariesD. women will operate most office machinesPassage ThreeQuestions 11~15 are based on the following passage.Humanity is a new experiment on planet Earth. For most of its history, life on Earth was restricted to the sea. Living things began to populate the land slightly over 400 million years ago, and humans have existed for no more than 3 million years.One way to represent the evolution of life is to compress the 4.6-billion-year history of Earth into a l-year-long film. In such a film, Earth forms as the filmbegins on January 1, and through all of January and February it cools and is cratered (变成坑状) and the first oceans form. But those oceans remain lifeless until sometime in March or early April, when the first living things develop. The 4-billion-year history of Precambrian (前寒武纪) evolution lasts until the film reaches mid-November, when primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organisms such as trilobites (三叶虫).If we examine the land instead of the oceans, we find a lifeless waste. But once our film shows plant and animal life on the land, about November 28, evolution proceeds rapidly. Dinosaurs, for example, appear about December 12 and vanish by Christmas Eve, as mammals (哺乳动物) and birds flourish.Throughout the 1-year-run of our film there are no humans, and even during the last days of the year as the mammals rise and dominate the landscape, there are no people. In the early evening of December 31, vaguely human forms move through the grasslands, and by late evening they begin making stone tools. The Stone Age lasts until about 11 ~ 45 pm, and the first signs of civilization, towns and cities, do not appear until 11 ~ 54 pm. The Christian era begins only 14 seconds before the New Year, and the Declaration of Independence is signed with 1 second to spare.11. In comparing all of Earth's geological evolution to one calendar year, theauthor shows____A. just how recently humanity has arrived on the sceneB. just how simple it is to understand the history of EarthC. just how early humanity appears on planet EarthD. just how difficult it is to understand the history of Earth12. According to the passage, primitive ocean life begins to evolve intocomplex organisms_____A. in the middle of DecemberB. when Earth is crateredC. at the beginning of NovemberD. when the land is still a lifeless waste13. It is indicated in the passage that_____A. Earth is cool at firstB. Earth is hot at the beginningC. there are oceans at the beginningD. there is life in the ocean in late February14. In the one-year-long film dinosaurs____A. die out on December 25B. appear after December 25C. die out on December 24D. appear on December 2415. In the compressed history of Earth the Declaration of Independence issigned____A. a long time before the New YearB. immediately after the New Year's DayC. just one second before the New YearD. right on the New Year's DayPassage FourQuestions 16~20 are based on the following passage.Internet-addicted job seekers may be partly the cause of the fact that it is taking the unemployed 23 % longer to find a new position than it took during the last recession (经济萧条),when the "benefits" of online job searching were unavailable. "A growing number of unemployed Americans waste time browsing ( 浏览) the estimated 4,000 to 5,000 online job sites, filling them with resumes, and then waiting for replies. It is common for long-time joblessness,” argues Professor John A. Challenger. Although the Internet has the potential to be very useful for job seekers and it has become the primary tool for many, Challenger believes that it should be considered secondary to the traditional technique of meeting would-be employers in person.In addition to slowing job search efforts, the Internet is making the hiring process longer for the employer. In a survey of 5,000 hiring managers by an online résumé~ site, 72 % said that a majority of the resumes they received in response to an online job posting did not match the position's description."The more unrelated résumés managers have to go through in order to select the few to bring in for interviews, the longer it takes to fill the position," points out Challenger. "One result of this has been the increased use of screening software by employers. This will make it even more difficult for job seekers to get their résumés in front of the hiring executive for an interview.""All of this is not to say that the Internet has not revolutionized job hunting. It has certainly made it easier for someone in San Francisco, for example, to search for job openings in Miami. In addition, the ability to conduct keyword searches has reduced the amount of time it takes to find the type of position a person is seeking.""Job seekers must learn how to use the Internet as a tool, rather than just relying on it as a means for submitting electronic résumés," concludes Challenger.16. According to the passage, the coming of online job searching brings __A. longer waiting time for the unemployedB. longer computer technology training for the job seekersC. more unemployment throughout the U. S. A.D. more job opportunities in the Internet world17. Professor Challenger thinks ___ should be considered more important bythe unemployed.A. browsing the Internet job sitesB. sending résumés by emailC. going to a traditional training centerD. meeting the potential employers in person18. The Internet is making the hiring process longer for the employer because__A. the speed of the Internet is not fast enoughB. there is a lot of false information on the NetC. the hiring position cannot be fully described on the NetD. it has drawn many unfitting résumés19. It can be inferred that "screening software" in Paragraph 3 is used to____A. draw more job seekers to the websitesB. get rid of some unrelated resumesC. serve as a bridge between the job seekers and the employersD. provide the job seekers with more chances to visit the employers inperson20. According to the passage-the Internet has revolutionized job huntingby____A. changing the recession cycleB. opening more chances for job seekersC. improving the reemployment situationD. reducing the interview timePart ⅡVocabulary and Structure ( 共40小题,每题1分，共40分) Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

If you hired someone to do house hold work and you were able to control what they did and how they did it, you had a household employee; this is true even if you gave the employee freedom for action. What matters is that you had the right to controlthe details of how the work was done. For example, you paid Betty Oak to babysit(临时照看孩⼦)your child and do light homework 4days a weak in your home. Betty followed your specific instructions about household and child care duties. You provided the household equipment and supplies Betty needed to do her work. Betty is your household employee. Household work is done in or around your home. Some examples of workers who do household work are: babysitters, caretakers, cleaning people, drivers, health aides(助⼿), housekeepers, private nurses, yard workers.If a worker is your employee, it does not matter whether the work is full or part time or whether you hired the worker through an agency or from a list provided by an agency or association. Also, it does not matter if the wages paid are for work done hourly, daily, weekly, or by the job.Cash wages include wages paid by checks, money orders, etc. Cash wages do not include value of food, lodging, clothing, or other non-cash items you give a household employee.446. A household employee is someone ______.A) to do work at home and outside itB) you ask for advice about houseworkC) who works in an employment officeD) who is in charge of all families in a community47.

For years scientists have asked themselves this question. Does laughter help us to survive in any way? The answer seems to be like this: smiling and laughter help us relax, reducing tension(紧张) and preventing illnesses which arecaused by stress. Laughter really is the best medicine!But if you are unhappy, it cannot do you any good to smile, can it? Not true. Obviously, the positive effects of smiling are just the same whether you feel like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked a group of actors to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fear just using their faces. Changes in their heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were written down. Most of the feelings they acted did not cause changes, but when the actors smiled their heart rate and their blood pressure went down. So even if we feel sad inside, smiling seems to make us feel better.A sense of humor also helps to keep things on their positive side. Interfering friends or a flat tire (轮胎漏⽓) won’t seem so bad if you can see the funny side. So if you find yourself in a stressful situation, try to imagine how it must seem to an5outside with a sense of humor and let yourself laugh it off. A scientist writes: “If youtry to show a positive reaction and start to laugh, you willactually become happier.”51. According to the writer, laughter and smiling_______.A) protect human beings from heart attacksB) are the main cause for man to live longC) can help people to feel relaxedD) help people to keep good relations52.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage ,_______.A) A sense of humor is essential for one to gain successB) Stress may be relieved by smiling even if you are actingC) Laughing is the best way to overcome difficultiesD) Sadness can be covered up by laughter and smiles53. The study of the scientist in California is to find out_________.A) the relations between different human feelingsB) the connection between one’s feeling and actingC) whether other animals can laugh and smileD) whether laughter and smile can be good to man’s health54. The scientist discovered that ________.A) laughter and smiles did help the actors to feel relaxedB) most actors acted well according to his instructionsC) the actors’ feeling s reflected what they really feltD) different feelings have different effects on the actors55. The writer tends to suggest that we should ________.A) face difficulties with great courageB) find out the positive side of thingsC) overcome our sad feeling with a smileD) learn to have a sense of humorYang Cai is now in his sixth job after graduation. He is a computer programmer in a German company in Nanchang.The job also marks the latest of several moves he has made in thelast four years. In that period, he has worked in several cities including Nanchang, Wuhan, and now Nanchang.His first job, also his longest, was for a State-owned enterprise producing communication products and lasted one year. His last job, also his shortest, was in designing web pages and lasted three months.“I am not the most frequent changer of jobs in this industry,” Yang said.“Working in IT (information technology) companies, I have become accustomed to welcoming new colleagues today and to seeing them off the next month.”“I have always been in a turbulent (动荡的) situation, and no job gives me afeeling of stability,”In sharp contrast with Yang, Wendy, a lawyer in the Nanchang branch of a Beijing-based big law firm, dared not ask for a half a day’s leave to go hospital when6she was suffering from a serious cold and cough.“The boss warns us to work 24 hours a day and you would be mad to ask for leave for illness” said Wendy.

This passage is most probably taken from _________.A) a textbookB) an advertisementC) an instruction bookD) a news reportUnemployment may be one of the biggest problems our people as wellas our government are faced with today. According to an official report, in one big city alone, since 1986, nearly 1,000,000 adult workers have lost their jobs because of factory closing and cutbacks either temporarily laid off or permanent forced to retire.Many people, especially the policy makers, believe that forcingadult workers, those who are over 45 to retire is an effective means to relieve the tension of unemployment, for it can provide more job opportunities for the jobless young. But they fail to notice thatforcing a person who is still able to work and has a family to support to retire brings serious financial problems as well as emotional and physical ones. They also fail to realize that actually, workers aged 45-60 tend to be more stable,7more skillful and more experienced than workers of any other ages, that, to some extent, this age is the prime time for one’s productivity and creativity. To force themto retire is a huge waste of the nation’s best resources. On the contrary, if we turn our attention to the other end of the range of ages, a more effective way might appear. Today only 3% school leavers are allowed to go to college, leaving the majority of the young people under 18 without adequate preparation to join the labor force. If, however, more of them are able to attend college and begin fulltime employment at later age, more job opportunities will be created as the number of years that anaverage person works fulltime shrinks.Most importantly, we should not be merely satisfied to solve the problem of unemployment, but rather we should improve the quality of the work force at the same time by keeping the skilled adults and employing the well educated young.61. Forcing middle aged persons to retire might cause ________.A) the loss of valuable resources B) shortage of the work forceC) elderly people to feel upset D) families to be unstable62.

Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only ifit feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick itup, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of theperson bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill,there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through BritainD) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ______.A) try to catch the snakeB) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victimD) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders _______.A) normally friendly towards peopleB) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see themD) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually ______.A) move out of your pathB) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quicklyD) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws2to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out ofbusiness. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on theirautomobiles, their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will gobankrupt (破产); that is, it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out ofbusiness. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land andair and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices,the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want tostop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollutionstandards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that _______.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutionD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturingcosts of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerationsimprove businesses’ chance of making profit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards whichhelp European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-qualityproducts available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individualbusiness interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed toensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide businessoperation will soon be gone.In addition to creating a favorable business environment, the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronicsindustry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and communitylevel, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforcereceives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the futureof European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development andcommunications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way whichmaximizes the benefit to European industry.331. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34. The European Community has adopted some special measures to _______.A) make long-term development of industries possibleB) place some industries before other industriesC) open new markets in other countriesD) enable new technology to be used in manufacturing35. which of the following is likely to be the title of the passage?A) Advantages of a Single Large-scale MarketB) Development of European IndustriesC) Imports and Exports of European CommunityD) Policies of European CommunityPart Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: In this section there are 45 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there four choices markedA),B),C),and D). Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.

2005年江西省高校专升本考试英语试卷（供2006年高校专升本考生参考）Part II Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage oneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.In the past, a cit y’s major shopping district was in its downtown area. People could get downtown more easily than they could get to other parts of the city. Before the 1960s, the best way to travel in a city was on a street-car, a subway, a railroad, or an elevated train. All of these ran on tracks that led downtown.As our cities grew outward, people living far from the center of town needed a place they could drive to quickly. Driving downtown was difficult. Finding a parking space downtown was something almost impossible. People also needed a shopping place where they could park easily.To meet the shopping needs of people living in the suburbs, groups of businesses moved farther out, too. Today, most suburbs have large shopping centers.Modern and well-planned shopping centers are built on large areas of ground. They have even more space for parking than they do for stores. The shopping centers have many different kinds of stores. Often, the shoppers can do all their shopping in one place.The very large shopping centers have malls which make shopping pleasant. The mall is an area between stores set aside for walking. Shoppers can stroll（漫步）from store to store and enjoy beautiful fountains, statues, and plants. There are benches so that shoppers may rest. Some shopping centers have malls with roofs that protect shoppers from the weather outside.21. The first paragraph tells us that in the past ________.A) few people drove cars to do shoppingB) it was convenient to do shopping downtownC) people liked to live in downtown areasD) street-cars were the main vehicle within a city22. Why did some businesses move from downtown to the suburbs?A) They needed more space to build modern large stores.B) People no more liked to do shopping in city centers.C) Shopping downtown was difficult due to heavy traffic.D) Downtown businesses were not as good as before.23. Nowadays people prefer to go shopping in big malls because malls ________.A) are close to their homesB) have much larger walking spaceC) can shelter people from sunshineD) are more pleasant for shoppers24. The passage is mainly about ________.A) changes of people’s shopping habitsB) the need for modern shopping centersC) people’s life in the center of big citiesD) how to run a business in the suburbs25. We can conclude from the passage that ________.A) suburban areas are beautiful and pleasant placesB) elevated trains will be built to connect shopping centersC) only city people visit big shopping centersD) suburban people will have more shopping centersPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.When I arrived in Beijing more than five years ago, I had already given blood 79 times.I wanted to continue to be a donor（献血者）. But entering a Red Cross clinic（诊所）in Beijing, I was surprised to be received as a hero. For me, a blood donation was simply a good habit and gift of love to humans.In Canada, donors can give 450 ml each time, every 51 days. That means six times a year. In China, we can give only 200 ml, every four months.In 1984, there were only 19 donors in Beijing who offered their blood for free. One year later, there were 141. In 1986, 1,083, and so on until the figure reached 10,046 in 1990, 14,016 in 1992 and more than double that the following year. There were 41,037 in 1994, and my statistics stop here. I’m so glad to see that the Chinese have understood that giving blood is not dangerous, and that it’s a way to say, in a real co mmunist spirit, “Brother, I love you”.In fact, every time I give blood, I think of my blood running in a man or a woman’s veins（血管）. Through donation thirteen Chinese have become my relatives now. Giving blood is like giving birth. Some of these thirteen people may have died without my donation; doesn’t that make it worth becoming a volunteer（志愿者）? What makes me even happier is when I can convince a Chinese friend to come with me and become a donor too.Things have become easier since May 1, 1996. A Hong Kong donor offered a well-equipped mobile unit to the Red Cross here. The vehicle stands in front of the Xidan Shopping Mallevery Wednesday and Sunday morning, from May to the end of October. Donors just need a few minutes. I hope this public example will encourage new donors, and blood donation will become a social trend among the population.26. When the writer first went to the Red Cross clinic in Beijing to donate his blood he was surprised ____.A) how he was respected by the people thereB) what a good habit blood donation isC) that donors only gave 200 ml each time in ChinaD) that most Chinese people were willing to donate blood27. The number of voluntary blood donors in Beijing in 1993 is ____.A) more than 30,000B) more than 28,000C) more than 15,000D) more than 14,00028. According to the writer, more and more Chinese are giving blood free because _______.A) they know the advantage of blood donationB) they have learned how to donate bloodC) they have realized its great significanceD) they know it’s a way to show their generosity29. The word “that” in Line 3, Para. 4 mostly probably means ____.A) Becoming a volunteerB) donating bloodC) having relativesD) saving people’s life30. The purpose of the writer in writing this passage is to ____.A) explain blood donation is not harmful to the donor’s healthB) convince readers of the importance of blood donationC) tell us his donation experience in ChinaD) show people how to give blood freePassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Don’t Waste Advertising DollarsThe most important aspect of direct mail marketing（直邮营销）isn’t a creative letteror an attracti ve offer. It’s a good mailing list of customers. In fact, advertising professionals say that as much as 60 percent of your success in direct mail depends on getting the right names. But before you can find the perfect list, you need to define your ideal customer based on factors such as:l Geographic locationl Age, sex and income levell Profession or educational levell Hobbiesl Size of a companyIf you’re trying to sell luxury cars（豪华轿车）to rich people, it’s obviously a waste of money to mail an offer to those who earn $30,000 a year. But that’s just what some companies do. This is truly one area where you can be “penny wise and pound foolish.”You can try to search for mailing lists yourself. But it’s generally best to find a broker（经纪人）who can identify the right lists for your company. Then, make sure the names are readily available. A list may be only 12 months old and has many names and addresses on it. But it can no longer be accurate（精确）because people move, close post office boxes, retire, and make other changes.31. The phrase “an attractive offer” (Line 2, Para. 1) in the passage probably means ________.A) valuable productsB) direct mail marketingC) a good mailing listD) something cheap32. What is considered most important in direct mail marketing?A) Writing a friendly letter.B) Getting the right names.C) Giving a low price.D) Having a list of customers.33. What is an ideal customer (Line 4, Para. 1) according to the passage?A) One who will buy your products or service.B) One who will buy a luxury car.C) One who is richer than others.D) One who is not very poor.34. If a man is “penny wise and pound foolish” (Line 3, Para. 2), people think he is ________.A) a person who saves up every bit of moneyB) a person who is only capable of doing small thingsC) a person who is sometimes clever and sometimes foolishD) a person who can deal with different kinds of situations35. It’s very important that you can get in touch with the names on the list, because ________.A) people are always changingB) people move frequentlyC) mailing lists are very expensiveD) mailing lists are seldom accuratePassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.The laptop computer（便携式电脑）is popular all over the world because it is small enough for us to put on the upper part of our legs. People use them on trains and airplanes, in airports and hotels. These computers connect people to their workplace. In the United States today, they also connect students to their classmates.Westlake College in Virginia will start a laptop computer program that allows students to do schoolwork anywhere they want. Within five years, each of the 1500 students at the college will get a laptop. Westlake College has started a large computer program for its students. With laptop computers, the students will be connected not only to the Internet but also to libraries. In addition, they can use e–mail to “speak” with their teacher s, their classmates, and their families. However, the most important part of the laptop computer program is that students will be able to use computers without going to computer labs. They can work with it at home, in a fast–food restaurant or under thetrees---anywhere at all.At Westlake College, more than 90 percent of the students use computers, either desktop （台式）or laptop, but the laptop users can work and study in any of the places. Just as one of the Westlake teachers said, “Here we are in the middle of the city and we’re giving students a window on the world.”36. The laptop computer is becoming more and more popular because it is _________.A) very convenient to use in a lot of placesB) cheap enough for everyone to get oneC) small enough to put into one’s pocketD) easy to take to and from classrooms37. What is the main purpose of the laptop computer program in Westlake College?A) To give the students more free time to do their school work..B) To give the students help in their homework out of classes.C) To offer the students more chances to work in the future.D) To allow the students to do school work anywhere.38.

What is the meaning of the words “giving the students a window on the world” in the lastsentence of the passage?A) Showing them pictures of the world.B) Giving them chances to travel around the world.C) Offering them Information from around the world.D) Inviting their teachers from other countries.40. We can learn from the passage that __________.A) laptop computers are difficult to useB) laptop computers are more powerful than desktopC) Westlake College is a very rich universityD) Westlake College’s students will mainly use laptopsPart III Vocabulary and Structure (15 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

On that particular day, a south wind had been gusting （劲吹） on and off all morning. It was not strong enough to cause us any concern, so we carried on our daily work not suspecting what was about to happen.The storm gave us very little warning. Black clouds loomed over the distant horizon （地平线） so suddenly that we were taken by surprise. Even then, we were not really worried, as the clouds seemed to be moving over our house and towards the distant mountains. Then, just as the clouds had moved inland, the wind suddenly swung around in a full circle and we were facing a major storm.Instantly, we were busily preparing for the worst. The whole family had experienced such a storm before and everyone remembered the damage it had caused to stock and crops. There was very little we could do about the corps. But we needed to protect the animals in case the river flooded again. My older brother called his sheep-dog and began driving our small flock of sheep to higher ground above river. If the river flooded, they should be safe there.In the meantime, my father was mending a shed roof that had partly fallen down after many years of fine service. If the tin flew off, it could damage the house. My younger brother began hurriedly carrying firewood under the shelter. My job was to help Mum board up the windows. If the storm developed into a cyclone （旋风）, the boards would protect the glass.The storm raged for four hours, pouring more rain on us than we had seen in the last five years. As expected, the river broke its banks and came slowly up towards the house and the stock.Then, just as we were beginning to lose hope, the storm stopped as suddenly as it had begun. The animals were safe, and the roof was still nailed on. "All's well that ends well, " said my mother.(1) When the black clouds appeared suddenly in the distance.A. the family were surprisedB. they were extremely worriedC. they were preparing for the worstD. they faced the storm bravely(2) "There was very little we could do about the crops" indicates that.A. little damage would be done to the cropsB. they had everything ready for the cropsC. they felt unablet to protect the cropsD. the crops should be safe enough there(3) The underlined word "stock" in the third paragraph refers to.A. money owned by the familyB. goods for saleC. suppplies for family useD. farm animals(4) It can be inferred from what the mother said that.A. they had no damage at allB. everything went beyond their expectationC. everything was under controlD. the family could have suffered a greater loss18、【来源】 2006年高考真题江西卷（B篇）第60~63题8分(每题2分)Buster Brown was a thief-and a good one, too, he thought. He'd never been caught by the police because he never took chances. He was always prepared for any unforeseen event or emergency.Confidently, he stood outside the house of his intended victim （受害者） and read the sign on the front gate of the house. "Don't worry about the dog - be aware of the owner!" it said. Buster smiled and found his way in.The house looked quite normal outside, but inside it was very exotic with fascinating objects on display. As he began putting them into his bag, a dog came into the room. It stopped when it saw Buster, then wagged its tail madly and went over to him, licking his outstretched hand. "Good boy, " Buster whispered. "What a great guard dog you are - trying to lick me to death."Satisfied he'd made friends with the dog, Buster began to wander round the house, choosing items to put in his bag. His skilled eye picked out only the best antiques （古董）: a pair of silver candleholders, a silver tea-and-coffee service, etc. His new friend, the dog, sat and watched, as if wondering what was happening."Well, boy, " Buster whispered, finally. "That might do. Any more and I won't be able to carry it!" He swung the heavy bag onto his shoulders, just as the lights came on, nearly blinding him. He shielded his eyes with his hand."You're a very silly person, " the figure in the doorway said, his voice dry as dust. As the man came closer, Buster could see he was well dressed. His face seemed familiar, but Buster couldn't quite place where he had seen him before."You should have taken more notice of the sign outside, " the man rasped. "I knew about this attempted robbery last week and I also know you will end up behind bars for 20 years. Fancy trying to rob the house of the world's greatest fortune-teller!"(1) Why was Buster so confident?A. He was not afraid of dogs.B. He knew the owner of the house lived alone.C. He had never been caught by the police.D. The house had no security alarm.(2) Which of the definitions is closest in meaning to the word "exotic" in the third paragraph?A. Messy and untidy.B.

They lived in eaves in very small' elan' groups. They collected or killed only enough for the dan's survival. Early clans were nomadic, which means that they did not stay in one place. Instead, they moved around, following the animals that were their main food source and seeking areas where seasonal plants grew wild. Moving around seasonally helped to protect the environment. The land had time to recover and animals had time to breed （繁殖） before the clan returned for the next season.As time went by, these small family clans joined with others to form larger groups for protection. Joining with other clans gave them more hunters and more women to help cut up the meat and share it between families. Eventually, people tamed （驯养） wild animals such as dogs and horses. People settled around rivers and fertile plains to share responsibilities and duties. Then, people began to plant crops instead of moving to areas where the plants grew. This development changed the environment.Traditional forms of work also changed. Some people were hatter at performing a particular task than other clan members, so they began to specialize in things they were good at doing. This also meant that they began to exchange their goods for things that others produced.People began to communicate with distant tribes. Land was cleared for roads. Foreign plants and animals were transported to places where they had not existed before. Specialization also gave people more free time. So art, dance and music became important ways of expressing feelings and thoughts. This was how many great civilizations started.Compared to the past, modern civilization has experienced many changes to become the highly developed society that exists today. Populations have increased rapidly. Forests have been cleared for farms. Inventions and technology have made work easier.However, pollution and other serious problems have also resulted from human progress. As concerned citizerns, it is up to us to learn from past mistakes and to help maintain and improve our environment.(1) Early tribes didn't have much effect on animal population because.A. they kept animals for themselvesB. they ate only vegetablesC. they killed only enough for foodD. they loved animals(2) The main purpose for small clans to join together was.A. to hunt animalsB. to seek safetyC. to share cavesD. to protect environment(3) Which of the following is TRUE according to this passage?A. Early people moved to new places looking for new sources of food.B. Modern civilization began when people started to live together in big groups.C. Modern advancements are always good for the environment.D. People began to exchange goods because they didn't have enough money.(4) It can be concluded from the passage that.A. human progress has brought civilization to the societyB. civilization has improved traditional forms of workC. our environment has been affected by human progressD. early people understood environmental protection20、【来源】 2006年高考真题江西卷（D篇）第68~71题8分(每题2分)An ichthyologist is a scientist who studies fish. Most people who do this job say they love their work because it is very rewarding and varied. They work not only inside a laboratory, but also out in the field. Fieldwork includes traveling to river, oceans and lakes in order to collect information and specimens（~2~）, reading, writing and speaking me also very important to the job, fish scientists need to read the research of other scientists. They must be able to write up their own research clearly so that others can follow it. They also need to be able to give lectures about their findings, so that they can spread knowledge.Ichthyologists who wish to specialize can choose any one of three areas of study. The first area is aquaculture （水产养殖）. This involves the study and practice of fish farming and management. Because it is a rather new study, there are very few job opportunities available. However, as there is so much to discover, many see it as an exciting area for a new ichthyologist to enter. The second area is fisheries science, which means working with a team of scientists to find out more about different fish species. The third area is about the protection of natural fish populations. This is very important today, given that many fish species are in danger of dying out because of the actions of humans.To become a successful fish scientist, you need to have a curious mind and be able to work on your own. You also need to be able to handle equipment and perform experiments; but most importantly, you must love fish. To become an ichthyologist, you will need to train at a university to pass a Bachelor of Science degree. For this, you will need to be good at mathematics, physical science and biology. Then, you will need to study for another year to complete an honours degree in ichthyology. This honours degree contains coursework about all aspects of fish. You also need to complete a research paper.(1) What makes the jobs of ichthyologists so varied?A. They study fish habits and collect information.B. They have to study science and mathematics.C. They work in fields as well as in laboratories.D. They read research papers written by others.(2) Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. An ichthyologist has an interesting and varied profession.B. Aquaculture is the study of fish protection.C. The life of an ichthyologist can involve lots of travel.D. A fish scientist needs to be independent and curious about things.(3) Who is most likely to become an ichthyologist?A. Tom, because he likes fishing and outdoor sports.B. Jack, because he likes to travel and read adventure books.C. Jenny, because she likes science, mathematics and reading about dinosaurs.D. Jane, because she likes mathematics, science, biology and searching rock-pools.(4) The passage is probably written for.A. university studentsB. science researchersC. fisheries expertsD. fish farmers21、【来源】 2006年高考真题江西卷（E篇）第72~75题8分(每题2分)Answering the Community Needs of Our City The Silver City Council recognizes that citizens have certain needs.

Each passage is followed by some question or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C),and D).You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheer with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Unemployment may be one of the biggest problems our people as well as our government are faced with today. According to an official report, in one big city alone, since 1986.nearly 1,000,000 adult workers have lost their jobs because of factory closings and cutbacks—either temporarily(暂时)laid off or permanently forced to retire.Many people, especially the policy makers, believe that forcing adult workers, those who are over 45 retire is an effective means to relieve the tension of unemployment, for it can provided more job opportunities for the jobless young .But they fail to notice the forcing a person who is still able to work and has a family to support to retire serious financial problems as well as emotional and physical ones. They also fail to realize that actually, workers aged 45-60 tend to be more stable, more skillful and more experienced than workers of any other ages, that to some extent th is age is the prime time for one’s productivity and creativity. To force them to retire is a huge waste of the nation’s best resources. On the contrary, if we turn our attention to the other end of the age line, a more effective way might emerge. Today, only3% of school-leavers are allowed to go to college, leaving the majority of young people under 18 without adequate preparation to join the labor force. If, however, more of them are able to attend college and begin full-time employment at a later age, more job opportunities will be created.Most importantly, we should not to be satisfied merely to solve the problem of employment, but rather, we should improve the quality of the work force at the same time—by keeping the skilled adults and accepting the well—educated young.21. Forcing middle-aged persons to retire might cause____________A) the loss of valuable resources C) elderly people to feel upsetB) shortage of the work force D) families to be unstable22. The wo rd “prime” in Line 7 Para 2 may be replaced by “____________________”A) first B) early C)major D)spring23.

What is the writer’s atti tude towards the described employment situation ?A) Concerned B) Hopeless C) Doubted D) Satisfied25. The best title for this passage might be “___________”.A) How to Solve Unemployment Problem? B) Should People Be Forced to Retire??C) Why Don’t We Educate the Young?D) Are the Policy Makers Wise?Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:It’s common knowledge that today’s workplace is more volatile(易变的) than it once was. One has to know how to make the necessary changes to compete in this mew, high-tech world.The Career Coach offers experienced advice and strategies that people are increasingly turning to professional career advisers to get.Written by Gordon Miller, the book is aimed at both job seekers, people remerging the workforce and those farther along their career paths.It gives advice on how to search for a job or change jobs (or industries) successfully in today’s job market. You’ll learn how to conduct a good interview, and how to free yourself from the constrains of the traditional resume.It also has advices on how to become a good performer at the job you currently have, and the right way and time to ask for a raise or a promotion.There are strategies for improving job performance within a company and how to shape your career to secure a future in an ever-changing economy..The book is filled with countless stories about people who, with a little coaching, were able to steer their careers in a new direction: A mediocre salesman turns into an excellent performer by learning to use his time more wisely. A recent college graduate wins a key position with a high tech company.26. The book Career coach is intended for____________.A) people who are quitting a job B) people who seek expert career adviceC) people who face a raise or promotion D) people who are successful in their careers27. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A)People usually turn to career advisers for career advice.B)The author of the book is a successful businessman.C)The book is only suitable for people who are hunting for a job.D)The book offers many examples of successful executives.28.

The last paragraph indicates that .A) career coach is essential to job seekersB) a college student can become a star performerC) a salesman can be successful through hard workD) career advisers can help people achieve their goalsPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:College is a new and challenging experience, and new and challenging experiences tend to produce stress. Consequently, stress is a common problem that many college students must face. How to reduce stress1. Eliminate the source of stress. Identify possible sources of stress, and work towardeliminating them. If a math course is creating stress, for instance, take action: Go to the learning lab or math lab for assistance or inquire about instructors.2. Establish a daily routine. To eliminate daily hassles(混乱) and make daily tasks as simpleas possible, establish a daily routine. A routine eliminates the need to make numerous small decisions, thus giving you a sense of “smooth sailing”.3. Review your achievements.

Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a frie nd wants to borrow some money from you, you say: “I wish I could help you but I’m short of money myself.” In fact, you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debts and you don’t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this.

However, this is only one side of the story. Other researches show that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intention of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the man hopes to profit or gain in some way.Research has also been done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, unimportant ways when they lie.
