2024年江苏省一般高等学校“专转本”统一考试高校英语第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共40分)Passage oneUnder proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected from a hillside or other such obstruction. Sound travels at the rate of about one-fifth of mile per second. If the hill is eleven hundred feet away, it takes two seconds for the sound to travel o the hill and back. Thus, by timing the interval between a sound and its reflection (the echo), you can estimate the distance to an obstruction.During word war 2 the British used a practical application of this principle to detect German planes on their way to bomb London long before the enemy was near the target. They used radio waves instead of sound waves, since radio waves can penetrate fog and clouds. The outnumbered Royal Air Force (RAF) always seemed to the puzzled Germans to be lying in wait at the right time and never to be surprised. It was radio echoes more than anything else that won the Battle of Britain.Since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the RAF planes and the distance to send them (their range of flight, in other words), the device was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials the word radar was coined. (files come from )1. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the.A. heigt of the hillB. speed of soundC. distance to the hillD. intensite of sound2.

Both A and B4.It can be inferred from the passage thatA. Light waves could be used in a device similar to radarB. Radar was a practical application of a well-known principleC. Radar greatly increased the effectiveness of the Royal Air ForceD. Sound waves are reflected from a hillside under all conditions5. The author of this passage probably intended to explainA. Exactly how radar worksB. Why the British used radio waves in their deviceC. How radar (work and device) came to beD. How radar helped the British win the Battle of BritainPassage TwoIn general, the ancient Romans were a practical people. They cared less about philosophy and pure mathematics than did the Greeks. The Romans were the best of the ancient engineers and architects. They were brilliant students of Greek geometry and trigonometry (三角学) , and they applied their knowledge to the construction of fine bridges, roads, aqueducts (渠道) , and public buildings.They knew about the smelting of iron ore, but they used the iron they produced mainly for spears, swords, and shields, rather than for building construction.While the Romans accomplished practical wonders, they did very little theoretical scientific thinking. Because of their frequent wars, many of their inventions were no more than improvements in the design of Greek weapons with which they were familiar.There are two reasons for the Romans neglect of philosophy and pure mathematics. First, they were apparently too busy conquering nearby nations and forming them into a rapidly growing empire to waste time on abstract thinking. Secondly, they were handicapped (阻碍) by the rigidity of their numerical system. (Try to multiply XI by LVII orto divide CXLIII by IX; it simply cannot be done with pencil and paper.) The Romans did all of their arithmetic on an abacus, the ancient counterpart of the modern computing machine. Their number system discouraged the study of pure mathematics.6. The author calls the Romans “practical” because theyA. Cared little about philosophyB. Applied their knowledge to constructionC. Saw the necessity for developing theoretical scienceD. Studied the past and learned from it7.The ancient Romans did not concern themselves withA. Theoretical or abstract thoughtB. applied mathematicsC. StudyingD. either A or C8.In construction, the Romans made extensive use ofA. Iron oreB. peometry and trigonometryC. StudyingD. both B and C9.Many Romans inventions were based on Greek weapons because theA. Greeks had superior weaponsBromines were involved in frequent warsC. Romans were not familiar with many types of weaponsD. Greek proved himself or herself inspired inventor10.The author of this passage probably wanted to explain whyA. He considers the Romans a practical peopleB. Roman were involved in frequent warsC. Theoretical thinking is necessary fir the growth of a nationD. The Romans contributed little to philosophical thoughtPassage ThreeProfessor Barry Wellman if University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interacts these days. The term to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet ande-mail, our social networks involved live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and Americans Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the coputer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that’s a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with MORE real people than expected-helpful-people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million American told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them major life decisions.Thanks to the computer. “networked individuals” are able to be alone and together with other people-at the same time!11. the pew study was conducted inA. the United StatesB.

Interaction through the computer has replaced a lot of person to person interaction.C. Americans are turning into hermits.D. Sixty million Americans have bought computers.15. Which of the following was NOT one of the discoveries of Pew study?A. The Internet has put us in touch with more people than expected.B. People use the Internet to get advice on careers, medical problems, and otherquestions.C. For many Americans, the Internet plays an important role in helping them makeimportant decisions.D. “Internet addiction” is a growing problem among people who use computers. Passage four(非英语类学生必做)Summers with father were always enjoyable. Swimming, hiking, boating, fishing-the days were not long enough to contain all of activities. There never seemed to be enough time to go to church, which disturbed some friends and relations. Accused of neglecting this part of our education, my father instituted a summer school for my brother and me. However, his summer course included ancient history, which Papa felt our schools neglected, and navigation, in which we first had a formal examination in the dining room, part of which consisted of tying several knots in a given time limit. Then we were each separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise in my father’s 18-foot knockabout, spending the night on board, and loaded down, according to formally plot our course, using the tide table, even though our goal was an island I could see quite clearly across the water in the distance.16.

The first of these was a colonial institution. It began in New England with the establishment in 1635 of the Boston Free Latin School. The curriculum consisted mainly of the classical languages, and the purpose of this kind of school was the preparation of boys for college, where most of them would be fitted for the ministry.The academy began in the early 1750’s with Benjamin Franklin’s school in Philadelphia, which later became the University of Pennsylvania. It extended generally to about the middle of the nineteenth century, except in the southern states where the public high school was late in developing and where the academy continued a principal means of secondary education even after 2900. the academy was open to girls as well as to boys, and it provided a wider curriculum than the Latin grammar school had furnished. It was designed not only as a wider curriculum than the Latin grammar school had furnished. It was designed not only as a preparation for college but also for practical life in commercial and business activities. Although its wide educational values were evident and are recognized as important contributions to secondary education in this country, the academy was never considered a public institution as the public high school has come to be.The public high school had its origin in Massachusetts in 1821 when the EnglandClassicalSchool was established in Boston. In 1827, that state enacted the first state-wide public high-school law in the United States. By 1840, there were perhaps a dozen public high schools in Massachusetts and many in other eastern states; by 1850, they were also to be found in many other states.Just as the curriculum of the academy grew out of that of the Latin grammar school, so the curriculum of the public high school developed out of the academy. The public high school in the United States is a rejection of the aristocratic (贵族) and selective principle of the European educational tradition. Since 1890, enrollments in secondary schools, mainly public high schools, have practically doubled in this country every ten years.16. According to the author, the main types of secondary education in the United States have been provided byA.

My friend was coming for me when my 63 landed at Kennedy Airport at three o’clock in the afterno on. The weather was very 64 and it was snowing, but I was 65 excited to mind. From the airport, my friend and I 66 a taxi to my hotel. On the way, I saw the skyline of Manhattan for the first time and I stared in 67 at the famous Word Trade Centre, the tallest building in the word. My friend helped me 68 at the hotel and then left because he had to go 69 to work. He promised to return the next day.Shortly after he left, I went to a 70 near the hotel to get something to eat. As I cou ldn't speak 71 of english, I couldn’t tell the 72 what I wanted. I was very upset and started to make some gestures, but the waiter didn’t 73 me. Finally, I ordered the same thing the man at the table was eating.

But how much sleep do we actually need?For most of us, eight hours seems to be about the right amount. Yet we know that there are many people who get 61 perfectly with less sleep, and some who may need 62 . A great deal depends on the 63 we live. But a good general rule 64 is to sleep as long as we have to in order to feel happy and be able to work 65 our best when we awaken.There are actually different 66 of sleep. There is a deep sleep and shallow sleep. In a shallow sleep our body does not get the same kind of rest it gets in a 67 sleep, 68 after eight hours of a shallow sleep we may still feel tired. But a short, deep can be very 69 .Alexander the Great was able to get a deep sleep 70 he needed it. Once, during the night before an important battle, he remained 71 longer than anyone else. 72 he wrapped himself in a cloak and 73 down on the earth. He slept so 74 that his generals had to wake him three times for him to give the 75 to atack!Normally when we sleep, our “sleep center” blocks off nerves so that 76 our brain and body go to sleep. 77 prevents us from wanting to do anything, and the other 78our internal organs and limbs go to sleep. 79 sometmes only one goes to sleep and the other does not.

2020年江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语真题(总分:150.00,做题时间:150分钟)一、Reading Comprehension(总题数:4,分数:40.00)Passage OneWhen Beverly Goodman was in elementary school, she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic: disasters. She told her classmates about the eruption that buried Pompeii, the black plague, and famous shipwrecks likethe Titanic and the Lusitania. Today, at 45, she's a marine geoarchaeologist(地理考古学家)who excavates coastlines for clues to erosion, past tsunamis(海啸), and other disasters. “It's fun ny now that I'm a disaster scientist, basically,” she says. “It all came together.”Human settlements have long been built around access to water. Goodman studies how coastal change affected our ancestors: Were people forced to leave? Did they find innovative ways to adapt to the changes? This knowledge, she says, can help us “prepare responsibly for what this landscape is going to look like in the future.” That was the case when Goodman and her team of scientists proved tsunamis had struck the coast of what is now Israel over the course of thousands of years. Partly as a result of their research, the country in 2014 developed its first tsunami preparedness plan.Humans are manipulating coastlines more dramatically than ever, says Goodman. To learn what effe ct this will have, “we need to be working faster, and we need more people working on it.” She believes ancient clues buried underwater can save lives, particularly in places without written records.(分数:10)(1).When Goodman was a little girl , she might be interested in________.(分数:2)ndscapesB.art and literatureC.science and technologyD.disasters in history √解析:be interested in定位到文章“favorite”,原文第一句“she gave a series of presentations on her favorite topic:disasters.

I. Reading Comprehension(本题共 20 小题,每题 2 分共 40 分)Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A.B.C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneIf one is asked about the best way to improve one's reading ability, it is of course, to read. As a student, you must make a real effort to improve both your reading speed and your comprehension. Too many students read passively and without judgment; they simply start at the first word and read through to the end. You should read a passage actively, selectively and purposefully. You must believe that you indeed have the ability to read faster and understand more, and that you will.Reading, like everything else in life, is best done when you are relaxed. The key to improve it is concentration. You must be willing to break some old habits and form new ones. Extra body movement, such as turning the head from side to side, pointing at the line with a finger or a pencil, or moving the lips, should be stopped immediately. Reading is mostly a mental process and body movement helps neither speed nor comprehension. Then you shouldsee words as part of a whole sentence or paragraph, not just in isolation. This is why a slow, word-by-word student often understands far less, missing much of the joy and excitement of reading.The student must learn to improve reading skills on their own, and not just when a teacher is looking over his shoulder. Reading improvement takes discipline and effort. Don't give up.1.If you want to improve your reading ability, you should .A. read each word in the passage carefullyB. read with choice, purpose and confidenceC. start at the first wordD. read a passage completely from the beginning to the end2.The best title of the passage might be “”.A. How to Improve Your Reading AbilityB. How to Cultivate Good Habits in ReadingC. Developing Reading MethodsD. Getting Rid of Your Bad Habits While Reading3.Best reading efficiency can be achieved if one .A. reads paragraph by paragraphB. reads in great detailC. reads with focusD. reads as fast as possible4.According to the author, all the following are the bad habits in reading EXCEPT.A. moving the lipsB. pointing at words with somethingC. holding a book in handsD. turning the head from side to side5.The phrase "looking over his shoulder" in Paragraph 3 may best be replaced by “”.A. watching himB. examining his shoulderC. encouraging himD. looking at someone behind himPassage TwoOur memories can be both sweet and bitter. Many people spend all their lives to forget those bitter ones. Violence and traffic accidents, esp. can leave people with terrible physicaland emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body from releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories."Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions." said Roger Pit man, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity(特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out." said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.6.The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. an argument about the research on the pillC. a way of erasing painful memoriesD. a new research on the pill7.American researchers are developing a pill to .A. comfort those people who are in a frightening experienceB. help those people to forget their frightening experienceC. persuade those people to forget their frightening experienceD. test those people's degree of fright in a frightening experience8.The drug tested on people can .A. prevent the body from producing certain chemicalsB. relieve people of the mental tensionC. cause the brain to fix memoriesD. wipe out the memories of bad experiences9.We can infer from the passage that .A. people supporting the research believe that the pill will stop people's bad experiencesB. people supporting the research believe the pill will help people to reduce the harm caused by bad experiencesC. people against the research believe that the effect of the pills may not bed desirableD. people against the research believe that the pill will cause them to make mistakes10. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. The pill will reduce people's suffering from bad memories.D. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.Passage ThreeLarge modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who live in them. Persons living in cities are obliged by their environment to take a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and the rhythm of the nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are difficult to obtain. and therefore are highly valued. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere. Tall building hide the sun completely. Even the distinction between day and night is lost.rge modem cities impose their living condition on people in thatA. sunshine and fresh air are availableB. living conditions are improvedC. beautiful landscape can be foundD. air-conditioned houses are provided12.Which is NOT one of the reasons why city life is not more desirable?A. Tall buildings hide the sun completely.B. Modern cities are too big to control.C. Modern cities offer better schools and more chances of employment.D. People are barely conscious of the seasons.13.According to the passage, the following can be the reasons for the loss of distinction between day and night except thatA. persons living in cities live in air-conditioned housesB. people lose touch with the natureC. people are traveling through different time zonesD. the sun was hidden from view by tall buildings14.If you want to know what season it is,A. it is advisable for you to live in an air-conditioned houseB. you'd better visit a public parkC. you should go out to see the sunshine and breathe the fresh airD. you should walk on the pavement15.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Large modern cities are too big to controlB. Sunshine and fresh air are rare in large modern cities.C. There are many disadvantages of living in large modern cities.D. All the simple, good things of life are imposed on the people who live in large cities.Passage FourRobots in use now are taking over the blue-collar jobs of less educated Americans, but artificial intelligence (AI) is probably ready to shake up college-educated employees in higher-paying jobs. This will leave no worker unaffected by the influence of technology on the American workforce.AI is generally regarded as programming computers to do things that normally require human intelligence-tasks such as planning, learning, reasoning and problem-solving. Muro, asenior fellow at the Brookings Institute, and his colleagues analyzed which jobs would be the most highly affected by artificial intelligence. What they learned is that almost every profession will feel Al's effects.But it’s hard to predict whether AI will take the place of more highly skilled workers in the same way robots have done to lower-skilled workers. AI might create entirely new jobs for humans. "We can't really say whether AI will lead to the support of work or its opposite. Both things could happen." says Muro.Jobs performed by people with a four-year college degree could be the hardest hit. These include market research analysts, sales managers, programmers, management analysts and engineers. Positions that are heavily involved in pattern-oriented or “predictive work” are more likely to be affected, according to the analysis.Of course, this is not the first time American workers have been influenced or potentially influenced by technology. The challenge, as Muro sees, it is to determine how humans can add value. He believes that human beings are durable in the face of new technologies. The question is how to help people accept training again, seek new work, and how they can adjust to it, or if their careers break down from this, how to provide a better social safety net.16.Who can AI affect most in the American workforce?A. Senior workers.B. Blue-collar workers.C. More-educated employees.D. Inexperienced employees.17.What did Muro and his colleagues find out?A. AI is considered as programming computers to complete tasks.B. AI can deal with tasks such as planning and reasoning.C. AI is better at problem-solving than humans.D. AI can affect almost every field.18.What can we infer from what Muto says?A. AI will replace some skilled workers.B. AI will play as a double-edged sword.C. AI will develop in the same way as robots.D. AI will create entirely new jobs for humans.19.Which of the following positions are NOT likely to be replaced by AI?A. Management analysts.B. Sales managers.C. Programmers.D. Fashion designers.20.What should human beings do in face of the challenges posed by AI?A. Use their potential to adjust to it.B. Work harder than before.C. Wait for another opportunity.D. Learn to be durable.II. Vocabulary and Structure ( 本题共 15 小题,每题 1 分,共 15 分 )Directions: For each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A.B.C and D.

Germany, have measured people's 45 performance at different times of the day. They have found that it is highest between two and four in the afternoon.

第Ⅰ卷Part ⅠReading Comprehension (共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 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 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else t o love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we’re the people of our parents’eyes, and that our Grandmas think we are great talents and our uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you built a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own mind’s pic ture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images areoften quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be, thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do everyday. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you are silly because you aren’t good at math. Find a tutor. If you think you are weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you are dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat your self on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way.1. You need to build a positive self-image when you _______.A.dare to challenge yourself B. feel it hard to change yourselfC. are unconfident about yourselfD. have a high opinion of yourself2. According to the passage, our self-images________.A. have positive effectsB. are probably untrueC. are often changeableD. have different functions3. How should you change your self-image according to the passage?A. Keep a different image of others.B. Make your life successfulC. Understand your own worldD. Change the way you think4. What is the passage mainly about?A. How to prepare for your successB. How to face challenges in your lifeC. How to build a positive self-imageD. How to develop your good qualities5. Who are the intended readers of the passage?A. parentsB. AdolescentsC. educatorsD. people in general Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Do you want to live with a strong sense of peacefulness, happiness, goodness, and self-respect? The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as “honor” helps you create this life of good feelings.Here’s an example to show how honorable actions create happiness.Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item. If we keep silent and profit from the clerk’s mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement. Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune. On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be gratefuland thank us for our honesty. We would leave the store with a quite sense of honor that we might never share with another soul.Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we don’t tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen. Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief. In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect. We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends. We damage our own reputations by telling others. In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk’s attention causes different things to happen. Immediately, the clerk knows us to be honorable. Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility.There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions. Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions. Honorable actions lead us to a happier experience. And it is easy to think and act honorably again when we are happy. While the positive cycle can be difficult to start,once it’s started, it’s easy to continue. Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind which is important for our happiness.6. According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our ___________.A. self-respectB. financial rewardsC. advertising abilityD. friendly relationship7. The author thinks that keeping silent about the uncharged item is equal to _____.A. lyingB. stealingC. cheatingD. advertising8. The phrase “bringing the error to the clerk’s attention” means_______.A. telling the truth to the clerkB. offering advice to the clerkC. asking the clerk to be more attentiveD. reminding the clerk of the charged item9. How will we feel if we let the clerk know the mistake?A. We’ll be very excitedB. We’ll feel unfortunateC. We’ll have a sense of humorD. We’ll feel sorry for the clerk10. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. How to live truthfullyB. Importance of peacefulnessC. Ways of gaining self-respectD. Happiness through honorablePassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Sesame Street has been called “the longest street in the world”. That is because the television program by that name can now be seen in so many parts of the world. That program became one of America’s exports soon after it went on the air in New York in 1969.In the United States more than 6 million children watch the program regularly. The viewers include more than half of thenation’s pre-school children. Although some educators object to certain elements in the program, parents praise it highly. Many teachers also consider it a great help, though some teachers find that problems arise when first graders who have learned from “Sesame Street”are in the same class with children who have not watched the program.The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relationships. Tests have shown that children have benefited from watching “Sesame Street”. Those who watch five times a week learn more than the occasional viewers. In the United States the program is shown at different times during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.Why has “Sesame Street”been so much more successful than other child ren’s shows? Many reasons have been suggested. People mention the educational theories of its creators, the support by the government and private businesses, and the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks. Perhaps an equally important reason is that mother s watch “Sesame Street”along with their children. This is partly because famous adult stars often appear on “Sesame Street”. Butthe best reason for the success of the program may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.11. Why has Sesame Street been called “the longest street in the world”?A. the program has been shown ever since 1969.B. the program became one of America’s major exports soon after it appeared on TVC. the program is now being watched in most parts of theworld.D. the program is made in the longest street in New York.12. Some educators are critical of the program because________.A. they don’t think it fit for children in every respectB. it takes the children too much time to watch itC. it causes problems between children who watched it and those who have notD. some parents attach too much importance to it13. So many children in the United States watch the program because______.A. it uses songs, stories and jokes to give them basic knowledgeB. it is arranged for most children to watch it regularlyC. tests have shown that it is beneficial to themD. both A and B14. Mothers often watch the program along with their children because______A. they enjoy the program as much as their childrenB. they find their children have benefited from watching the programC. they are attracted by some famous adult stars on the showD. they can learn some educational theories from the program15. What is the most important reason for the success of the program according to the author?A. the creators have good educational theories in making the programB. the young viewers find they can learn something from it.C. famous adult stars often appear in the programD. It gets support from the government and private businessPassage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.You will have no difficulty in making contact with the agent. As you enter his office, you will be greeted immediately and politely asked what you are looking for. The Estate Agent’s negotiator-as he is called-will probably check that you really know your financial position. No harm in that, but you can always tell him that you have confirmed the position with the XYZ Building Society. He will accept that.He will show you the details of a whole range of properties; many of them are not really what you are looking for at all. That does not matter. Far better turn then down than risk missing the right one.The printed details h e will give you are called “particulars”. Over the years, a whole language has grown up, solely for use in Agent’s particulars. It is flowery, ornate and, providing you read it carefully and discount the adjectives, it can be very accurate and helpful.Since the passing of the Trades Description Act, any trader trying to sell something has had to be very careful as to what they say about it. Estate Agents have, by now, become very competent at going as far as they dare. For instance, it is quite acceptable to say “delightfully”situated. That is an expression of his opinion. You many not agree, but he might like the idea of living next to the gasworks. If, on the other hand, he says that the house has five bedrooms when, in fact, it has only two, that is a misstatement of fact and is an offence. This has made Estate Agents and others for that matter rather more careful. Basically, all that you need to know about a house is : how many bedroomsit has; an indication of their size; whether the house has a garage; whether there is a garden and whether it is at the back or the front of the house; whether its semi-detached of terraced.16. The Estate Agent’s negotiator will ________.A. want all details of your financial circumstancesB. want to satisfy himself that you understand the financial implications of buying a house.C. check your financial position with the XYZ Building SocietyD. accept any statement you make about your financial position17. The author believes ________.A. it is better to be given information about too many properties than too fewB. you should only look at details of properties of the kind you have decided to buy.C. the agent will only show you the details of properties you have in mind.D. it doesn’t matter if you miss a few properties you may be interested in.18. The adjectives in Agent’s particulars are ______.A. accurateB. helpfulC. both accurateD. safe to ignore19. The Trades Description Act applies to ___________.A. house agents onlyB. most estate agentsC. any traderD. buyer of houses20. The phrase “going as far as they dare” probablymeans______.A. covering as wide an area as possibleB. selling houses as far from the estate agent’s housesC. telling lies about properties if nobody is likely to find out about it.D. trying every possible means to make the description of houses sound attractivePart Ⅱ Vocabulary and StructureDirections: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

2006 - 2012江苏专转本英语真题(附答案)

2006年江苏省普通高校“专转本”统一考试大学英语第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Passage 1Vegetable 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. Form 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 enjoyed 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 one day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables. If possible, the garden should be near the house, so the garden can work in it whenever they are free.Soils for vegetables 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 frown on poor soils if the soils are properly prepared.1. Many people find home gardeningA. 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 fresh vegetablesA. 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 gardenA. 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 thatA. 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 and suburban peopleD. vegetable gardening is a good pastime for retired peoplePassage 2In old days, when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something so shocking as 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 suits to the dry-cleaners; telling lies on the telephone to keep away people he did not wish to speak to; and, of course, typing and filling 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 tat secretaries did.“Once office technology takes over generally, the status of the job will rise again because it will involve the high-tech work—and then men will want to do it again.”That was said by one of the executive (male) of one of the biggest secretarial agencies in this country. What he has predicted is already under was in the U. S.Once high technology has made the job of secretary less routine (乏味的) , 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 job as well as men—not just because they can buy negligees (女士长睡衣) for the boss's wife, but because they are as efficient and well-trained to cope with word processors and computers and computers as men.6. Before 1914 female secretaries sere rare because theyA. were less efficient and less trained than menB. were looked down upon by menC. would have disturbed the other office workersD. wore stocking and were not as serious as men7. A female secretary has been expected, besides other duties, toA. be her boss’s memoryB. do everything her boss asks her to doC. clean her boss’s clothsD. telephone the boss’s wife8. Secretaries, until recently, had to do a lot of work now done byA. machinesB. other staffC. servant’sD. wives9. A secretary in the future willA. have more work to doB. be better paidC. have higher statusD. have less work to do10. The writer believes that before longA. 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 3Humanity is new experiment on plant Earth. For most of its history, life on Earth was restricted to the sea. Living things began to popular 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 1-year-log film. In such a film, earth forms as the film begins 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 sometimes in March or early April, when the first living things develop. The 4-million-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 aboutDecember 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 shout 11:45 pm, and the first signs of civilization, towns and cities, do not appear until 11:45 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, the author showsA. 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 into complex organismsA. 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 thatA. Earth id cool at firstB. Earth id 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 dinosaursA. 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 is signedA. 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 DayPassage 4 (非英语类考生必做)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 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 be 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 resume 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 resumes 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 get their resumes 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 opening in Miami. In addition, the ability to conduct keyword searches have reduces 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 replying on it as a means forsubmitting electronic resumes,” 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 searchersC. more unemployment throughout the U.S.A.D. more job opportunities in the Internet world17. Professor Challenger thinks should be considered more important by the unemployed.A. browsing the Internet job sitesB. sending resumes by mailC. 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 in the NetD. it has drawn many unfitting resumes19. It can be inferred that “screening software” in Paragraph 3 is used to .A. draw more job seekers to the websitesB. get rid of more unrelated resumesC. serve as bridge between the job seekers and the employersD. provide the job seekers and the employers20. According to the passage, the Internet has revolutionized job hunting by .A. changing the recession cycleB. opening more chances for job seekersC. improving the employment situationD. reducing the interview time(英语类学生必做)A new World Bank report warns that children who do not get enough good food in the first two years of life suffer lasting damage. They may be underdeveloped or underweight. They may suffer from poor health or limited intelligence. In addition, poorly nourished children are more likely to drop out of school and earn less money as adults.The report notes that too little food is not the only cause of poor nutrition. Many children who live in homes with plenty of food suffer for other reasons. For example, the study says that mothers often fail to give their newly born babies their breast milk. This milk-like substance is called colostrums (初乳). It is full of nutrients that improve a baby’s ability’s to fight infections and disease.The study also links malnutrition (营养不良) to economic growth in poor countries. A lack of nutrition in early childhood can cost developing nations up to three percent of their yearly earning. Many of these same countries have economies that are growing at a rate of two to three percent yearly. The study suggests that poor countries could possibly double their economic growth if they improved nutrition.Africa and South Asia are affected the most by poor nutrition. The study says about half of all children in India do not get enough good food. The World Bank study also notes that rates of malnutrition in South Asia are almost double those in central and southern Africa. Other parts of the world are also severely affected, including Indonesia, Uzbekistan, Yemen, Guatemala and Peru.The study recommends that developing countries change their policies to deal with malnutrition. Instead of directly providing food, the study suggests educational programs in health and nutrition for mothers with young babies. It also recommends cleaner living conditions and improvements in health care.World Bank nutrition specialist Meera Shekar said the period of life between pregnancy and two years is extremely important. Governments with limited resources should take direct action to improve nutrition for children during this period.16. What’s the main topic of the passage?A. Poor nutrition in developing countries.B. World Bank research.C. Economic growth rate.D. Ways to fight malnutrition in developed countries.17. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that children who get sufficient food might suffer malnutrition because .A. they eat too much rubbish food everydayB. they take little physical exerciseC. they are lacking in some kinds of necessary nutrientsD. their mothers do not have time to take care of them in the day18. If a poor country managed to provide enough food for children, the yearly economic growth rate would .A. dropB. not changeC. riseD. exceed 2 percent19. According to Paragraph 4, nearly 50 percent of children suffer malnutrition in .A. UzbekistanB. South AsiaC. South AfricaD. India20.

Students are allowed to use the phone for attendance reporting (but onlyif they are actually in the classroom, a fact that will be proved by the phone's GPS),lecture podcasting, and online examinations. A student can't answer the roll cal usingthe phone from any location other than the classroom.Students can, of course, still cheat the new system by leaving their phones with fellow classmates, but this is not very likely to happen, as people tend to keep alot of private information on their phones that they don't want to share with others.As for calling and data plans, the university covers the basic fee.

江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语真题附参考答案

江苏省2017年普通高校专转本选拔考试Part 1 Reading Comprehension 共20小题;每小题2分;共40分Directions There are 4 passages in this part;Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements;For each of them there are 4 choices marked A;B;C and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passageWe use both words and gestures to express our feelings;but the problem is that these words and gestures can be understood in different waysIt is true that a smile means the same thing in any language;So does laughter or crying.There are also a number of striking similarities in the way different animals show the same feelings .Dogs; tigers and humans;for example; often show their teeth when they are angry.This is probably because they are born with those behavior patternsFear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world.In Chinese and English literature; a phrase like “he went pale and begin to tremble”suggests that the man is either very afraid or deep shocked; However;”he opened his eyes wide”is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it means surprise In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase like “they stretched out their tongues”Sticking out your tongue in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislikeEven in the same culture; people differ in ability to understand and express feelings;Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear;anger;love and happiness on people’s faces;Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do.1.According to the passage;——BA.We can hardly understand what people’s gestures meanB.words and gestures may have different meaning in different culturesC.words can be better understood by older peopleD.gestures can be understood by most of the people while words can not2.People’s facial expressions may be misunderstood because——BA people of different ages may have different understandingB people have different culturesC people of different sexes may understand a gesture differentlyD people of different countries speak different languagesA.3 .Even in the same culture.people ——AB.have different abilities to understand and express feelingsB.have exactly the same understanding of somethingC.never fail to understand each otherD.are equally intelligent4.From this passage; we can conclude ——C5.A words are used as frequently as gesturesB words are often difficult to understandC words and gestures are both used in expressing feelingsD gestures are more efficiently used than words5.The best title for this passage may be ——BA.Words and FeelingsB.Words;Gestures and FeelingsC.Gestures and FeelingsD.Culture and UnderstandingPassage TowQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passageThe English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are"copper" and "bobby" the first name comes from the verb "to cop".which is also slang.meaning to take or to capture".and the second comes from the first name of Sir Robert Peel; the nineteenth-century politician; who was the of the police force as we know it today.An early nickname for the policeman was "peeler" but this one has died out.Whatever we may call them;the general opinion of the police seems to be a favorable one; except; of course; among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more derogatory nicknames which originated in America; such as "fuzz" or "pig".Visitors to England seem to be very impressed by the English police.It has.In fact; become a standing joke that the Visitor to Britain; when asked tar his views of the country.will always say; at some point or other; "I think your policemen are wonderful."Well;the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character.A music-hall song of some years ago was called "If You Want To Know The Time; Ask A Policeman".Nowadays.most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen. In London; the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else.Two things are Immediately noticeable to the stranger; when he sees an English policeman for the first time.The first is that he does not carry a pistol and the second is that he wears a very distinctive of headgear.the policeman's helmet ;His helmet; together which his height;enables an English policeman to he seen from a considerable distance; a fact that is not without its usefulness.From time to time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a pistol and that his helmetshould be taken from him; but both these suggestions are resisted by given and that his helmet should be taken from him ;but both suggestions are resisted by the majority of the public and the police themselves.6.Nowadays British people call the policeman ——CA.pigB.peelerC.BobbyD.Fuzz7.Which of the following statements is TRUE BA.There are fewer criminals America than tn Britain.B.The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors.C.The English bobby is friendly but not helpful.D.The English police enjoy having pistols.8.If you see an English policeman for the first time.you will probably notice at once that ——CA.he often tells people timeB.he is usually very helpfulC.he has a helmet on the headD.he wears special clothes9.That an English policemen can be seen from some distance is ——DA.standing jokeB.Of no helpC.Strange and funnyD.Of some help10.Visitors praise the English police because ——AA.they are polite and helpfulB.they obey ordersC.they often given thanksD.they are armed with modem equipmentPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory.The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions the bases for the decisions we make; and the roots of our habits and skills are to he found in our past experiences;which are brought into the present by memory.Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use.It not only includes "remembering" things like arithmetic or historical facts but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves.Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile.Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and puters.for example; contain devices from storing data for later use.It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being.The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100;000" words" -ready for instant use.An average American teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100;000 words of English.However; this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored.Consider.tar example- the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.11.The use of words is the bass of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings.A large part of a person's memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.12.According to the passage; memory is considered to be ——BA.the basis for decision making and problem solvingB.the ability to store information for future useC.an intelligence typically possessed by human beings13.D.the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words14.The comparison between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that——Cputer's memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager'sputer's memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being'sputer's memory's capacity is much smaller even than a teenager'sputer's memory's capacity is the same as a teenager's13.1t is implied in the passage that ——CA.only human beings have problem-solving intelligenceB a person's memory is different from a computer's in every respectC.animals can solve very simple problemsD animals solve problems by instincts rather than intelligence14.The phrase “in terms of”in the last sentence can be best replaced by——BA.in connection withB.expressed byC.consistingD.by means of15.The main idea of the passage is——BA.What life would be like without memoryB.Memory is of vital importance to lifeC.How a person’s memory different from an animal’s or a computer’sD.What memory carriesPassage fourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passageClearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live; we must communicate with other people.A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech.If we travel inbuses; buy things in shops; or eat in restaurants; we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions; receive news or comment; and very likely to have our views challenged by other members of society.Face to face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society.Two things; above others; have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry.Firstly; inventiveness has led to advanced imprinting; telecommunications photography; radio and television.Secondly; speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news; which itself is often almost eclipsed 黯然失色by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to只限于a privileged minority.In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate; but today there are public libraries.For years ago people used to flock to the cinema; but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes.Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information.The modem communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information; education and entertainment.The printing; broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing; educating and entertaining.Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is part; the vast modem network of communications is open to abuse.However; the mass media are with us for better; for worse; and there is no turning back.16.The first paragraph the writer emphasizes the ——of face-to-face contact in social setting. DA. natureB. limitationC. creativityD. Usefulness17.The development of the communication industry in contemporary society results from ——BA.the advances and revolutionsB.the inventiveness and speedC.the art of mass communicationD.the advances and speed18.It is implied in the passage that —— C .A. local news used to be the only source of informationB. local news still takes a significant placeC. national news is becoming more popularD. international news is the fastest transmitted news19.Which of the following statements is NOT true AA. Public libraries have replaced the private libraries.B. To possess information used to be a privilegeC. Communication means more than transmission.D. Communication influences ways of life and thinking.20.It can be inferred from the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is ___A___.A.concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaB.Happy about the flexible change in the mass mediaC.Pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD.Indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass medPart II Vocabulary and Structure 共40小题;每小题1分;共40分Directions : there are 40 incomplete sentences in this part For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A;

第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共40分)Passage 1Sometimes, people simply do not realize they are being ill mannered. Take Ted, for example. He prides himself on speaking his mind, and has something to say on everything. But his frankness is often extremely embarrassing.He is incapable of sayi ng, “I thought that last advertising campaign had a lot of good ideas in it, but perhaps next time we could give the copy more vitality (活力) .”Instead, he could say, “That campaign was a disaster. A child of three could have done be tter!”The fact that he is often right does not help. Other employees dislike his manner even more, he is too sensitive to notice.Another character among the list of ill-mannered employees is Sally, who seems to regard just being at work as a severe punishment. Everything is done unwillingly. Asking her to do a task beyond her basic job description is often not worth the trouble. It will be done, but half-heartedly.Fergus is just the opposite. He shows an over-familiarity to his boss. When an important visitor is shown into the manager’s office, Fergus cannot take the hint and leave. In stead he w3illattempt to take part in the conversation, declaring, “You can talk in font of me. Henry and I don’t have many secrets, do we? ” Over the years Pergus has fallen behind his former equals. But he seeks to maintain the same close relationship that he imagines existed in their younger days.1. Which of the following words describes Ted best?A. ColdB. TactlessC. StupidD. Warm-hearted2. It can be inferred from the passage that Ted .A. is well-known for his honestlyB. tends to blame others rather than himselfC. often gives the right idea in the wrong wayD. is treated unfairly by the management3. Which of the following is true about Sally?A. She thinks it’s unfair to have so much work to do.B. She is unhappy to help others.C. She hates being ordered about.D. She does everything half-heartedly.4. Form the passage, we can infer that Fergus .A. was once close to all his colleaguesB. has remained in the same position for yearsC. doesn’t kn ow what a hint isD. knows everything that happens in the office5. The writer is taking the point of view of .A. a colleagueB. people like TedC. an employeeD. a managerPassage 2A lot of real businesses are focusing on the Internet as a way of building sales, but some people with nothing to sell are creating their own Web sites to announce wedding plans, show off pictures of their kids or just have communication. It’s not as hard as you think and it can be a lot of fun. Carol Masser has so me tips on building you own Web site. “Like my living room, or my study, it’s where I put, mementos (纪念品), collectibles (收藏物), books and paintings and things that I would like to show to my friend s and relatives.”Renne Tubegeihan uses his own Web site to invite people into his virtual home. While John Marashod designed his own Web site to attract other parents of disabled children. “I’d say the goal of this site is to basically link parents inthe same situation with disabled children and exch ange ideas with one another.”Renne and John are part of a growing number of surfers who have established their own Web site. If you want to weave a Web yourself, it’s easier than you think. The first step is to get your own Web address. They’re sold by Web service p roviders like Microsoft, A T&T, and other local companies. You are expected to pay between 15 and 25 dollars every month to rent space for your site. But some companies, like Tripod and Geocities, issue the site for free if you agree to allow their advertising on your page.Before you get into setting up your own Web site, you should go around and do some surfing and check out other sites. Once you know what you want to do, it’s time to build. If you just want the basics, you can use Microsoft’s free Intern et Assistant; or if you want to get a little fancier, you can by a softwareprogram like Adobe Page Mill for 100 dollars or Microsoft’s FrontPage Editor for 150 dollars.6. According to the passage, some people create their own Web sites in order to .A. sell their personal thingsB. set up family businessC. communications with othersD. show off their Web-site building skills7. What is the main goal of John Marashod’s Web site?A. To contact parents who like to share their ideas on raising children.B. To link parents who offer free service to disabled children.C. To send information to disabled children.D. To link parents with disabled children so as to communicate with each other.8. Some companies offer free Web address provided that .A. their advertisements are allowed to be put on the Web siteB. the Web service providers agree to put their advertisement on their Web sitesC. Microsoft and other service providers pay the monthly rentD. 25 dollars are to Microsoft, A T&T or other local companies9. What do you need to do after you get your Web site address according to the passage?A. You need to contact a local company for free advertising.B. You need to surf some web sites so as to decide what will be included in your Web site.C. You need to learn the basic skills of creating a Web site.D. You need to buy a software program called Adobe Page Mill.10. What does the author think about creating one’s own Web site?A. It’s very complicated.B. It’s expensive by American stand ard.C. It’s much ea sier than we think.D. It’s just too simple.Passage 3Moods, say the experts, are emotions that tend to became fixed, influencing one’s outlook for hours, days or even weeks. That’s great if your mood is a pleasant one, but a problem i f you are sad, anxious, angry or simple lonely. Perhaps the best way to deal with such moods is to talk them out: sometimes, though, there is no one to listen. Modern pharmacology (药物学) offers a lot of tranquilizers (镇静剂), antidepressants and anti-anxiety drugs. What many pe ople don’t realize, however, is that scientists have discovered the effectiveness of several non-drug approaches to make you free from an unwanted mood. These can be just as useful as drugs, and have the added benefit of being non-poison ous. So next time you feel out of sorts, don’t head for the drug-store, try the following approach.Of all the mood-altering self-help techniques, aerobic (增氧健体的) exercise seems to be the most efficient cure for a bad mood. “If you could keep the exercise, you’d be in high spirits.”Says Kathryn Lance, author of Running for Health and Beauty.Researchers have explained biochemical and various other changes that make exercise compared favorably todrugs as a mood-raiser. Physical exertion such as housework, however, does little. The key is aerobic exercise—running, cycling, walking, swimming or other repetitive and tamed activities thatboost the heart rate., increase circulation (血液循环) and improve the body’s utilization (利用) of oxygen. Do them for at least 20 minutes a session, three of five times a week.11. What id the main subject of the passage?A. How to beat a bad mood.B. How to do physical exercise.C. How to talk bad moods out.D. How to get involved in aerobic exercise.12. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. the best way to overcome a bad mood is to talk to oneselfB. when one is in a bad mood, he or she may not work very efficientlyC. some drugs are more effective than physical exerciseD. a person can make a big profit if he is in a good mood13. “Feel out of sorts” in the second paragraph could be best replaced by “ ”.A. put things in orderB. be in bad moodC. search for tranquilizersD. need a mood-raiser14. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Doing housework can also help you overcome bad mood.B. Aerobic exercise can make you in high spirits.C. Swimming, walking, or running is an efficient cure for a bad mood.D. Taking anti-anxiety drugs might do harm to people’s health.15. Which of the following best describes the organization of this passage?A. A procedure is explained and its significance is emphasized.B. A problem is pointed out and solutions are given.C. Two contrasting views of a problem are presented.D. Recent pharmacological advancements are outlined in order of importance.Passage 4(非英语类学生必做,英语类学生不做,16—20小题。

Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by fourcomprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet. Passage OneQuestions 1~5 are besed on the following passage.Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to finding a partner, though matchmaking is still the most common way for boys to meet girls.Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American dollars by introducing suitable marriage partners to each other, but partners also play a role in the process during which young Koreans meet.In Confucius Korea, where marriage is regarded as more of a business contract than a sacred thing, the scene of the first meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the main hotels around Seoul.The business of continuing the family lineage (血统)and keeping the blooding pure is often too important to be left to romance and chance encounters. Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with her mother, from which her parents can tell if she is interested.For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk shows that she wants them to stay.Sometimes the matchmaking is not always so formal, with the introduction being made by friends.But whether through friends or families, there is hardly a Korean man in the country who has not gone through this process --- sometimes six or seven times. 1. The word “matchmaking” in the passage means ____. A.a very formal ritual(仪式)attended by boys and girlsB. introducing boys and girls to know each other for the purpose of marriageC. producing matches to make a fire or light a cigaretteD. arranging games between men and women2. The fact that the first meeting is repeated again and again in coffee shops in the main hotelssuggests that ____.A. Koreans like drinking coffee in coffee shops very muchB. menand women want to meet as many times as possible C. they are busy with communicating with different peopleD. marriage is seen as a business contract instead of something sacred3. Why does the matching still exist in Korea?A. Because most people want to keep the bloodlines pure and chance encounters romantic.B. Because most people try to avoid romance and keep the bloodlines pure.C. Because most people regard marriage as continuing family lineage and romance.D. Because most people try to break family lineage and bloodlines. 4. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Almost every man or woman in Korea has to go through the matchmaking.B. From the signal the boy’s parents know whether their son is interested in the girl or not.C. At present young Koreans no longer need matchmaking to help them find partners.D. Only a girl and a boy will appear in the first arranged meeting. 5. The passage is mainly about____. A. the practice of matchmaking in Korea B. the importanceof a business contract C. the work of professional matchmakersD. the first meeting between men and women Passage TwoQuestions 6~10 are based on the following passage.In the university Jim was a fast-tracker. He made good grades with littleeffort, and hisclassmates thought of him “most likely to succeed”. After graduation, hejoined a large company and at first did well. However, he switched to severalsmaller companies where the same pattern developed time and again: well-liked,regarded as a fast-tracker. People wonder why he isn’t doing better.Then there was Tom who was always regarded as “average”. However, he sethis goals high, thenfound a way to achieve his goal. Today he owns a million-dollar company.Researchers have found that school performance is little related to job performance. Qualities like “steady and dependable” and “practical andorganized” are more important. “You don’t need talent to succeed”,insist some experts. “All you need is a big pot of glue (胶水). You put someon your chair, you sit down, and you stick to every project until you’ve donethe best you can do.” Av erage achievers stay glued to their chairs andpostpone pleasure so they can receive future benefits. Many fast-trackers, onthe other hand, expect too much too soon. When rewards don’t materializeinstantly, they may become disappointed and unhappy. 6. A fast-trackerin this passage refers to a person who ____.A. feels happy with everythingB. makes others disappointed andunhappy C. is an excellent student D. learns new thingsquickly7. According to the passage, which of the following is true about a fast-tracker? A. He is very talented in his work. B. He is not likelyto get rich. C. He may not stick to his work. D. He isdependable and practical. 8. The word “materialize” in the lastparagraph means “____\ A. matter B. appear C. match D. attract 9. It is implied in the passage that ____. A. one hasno pleasure until he succeeds B. glue can help one focus on one’s work.C. success has nothing to do with special talentD. success is closely related to patience and steadiness10. A proper title for the passage can be ____. A. The magic of Glue B. The Way to SuccessC. Why Talented People Often Succeed QuicklyD. How average Achievers Do Better than Others Passage ThreeQuestions 11~15 are based on the following passage.From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget oursurroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading, our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in hand we need never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because theyresemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they represent unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, but friends we make in books need never weary us with their company. By turning the pages we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. When human friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy and encouragement.One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay for our way, no airship or ocean liner or streamlined train to transport us, no passport to enter the land of our heart’s desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains or cross thescorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. Thebeauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture, the marvels of engineering, are all open to thewonder and enjoyment of those who read. 11. The main idea in the first paragraph is ____.A. pleasure can only be derived from reading good booksB. a good book may distract our attentionC. people can read good books in different waysD. enjoyment and satisfaction can be derived from reading good books12. The main reason that people like their acquaintances in books is ____.A. they are like human friends exactlyB. they never bore us in comparison with our human friendsC. they never hurt our feelingsD. they give human beings friendship, sympathy and encouragement 13. We forget our surroundings and even our identity because ____.A. the reading environment is very goodB. the book is extremely interesting and attractiveC. we arealone and no one interrupts usD. we are asked to return the book the second day 14. Which of the following is NOT true?A. All of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books.B.We can travel by book free of charge to our heart’s content.C. We should rely on reading to escape from the seemingly dull realitiesof everyday life. D. Valuable experiences can be obtained from reading good books. 15. “The whole world is ours for the asking” implies that____. A. the world is more accessible in books than in reality B. the world is easy to travel around as long as we walk C. the worldbelongs to us whenever we ask D. round-world trips can be made by everyonePassage Four(非英语专业做)Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Increasingly over the past ten years, people --- especially young people --- have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because muchof the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods whichdo not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.Natural foods, for example, include vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of whichis to increase the amount --- but not the quality --- of foods grown in commercial farming areas. Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this withwhat happens in the mass production of poultry: there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an importantpart of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables.

Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past decade.Heavy drinking used to be an acceptable part of the American macho(男子汉)image and judges were lenient in most courts, but the drunken slaughter has recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially involving your children, that public opinion is no longer so tolerant.Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trendin the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the numberof people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21.Reformers, however, fear raising the drinking age will have little effectunless accompanied by educational programs to help young people todevelop“responsible attitude”about drinking and teach them to resist peerpleasure to drink. New laws have led to increased arrests and tests inmany areas already, to a marked decline in fatalities. Some states are also penalizing bars for serving customers too many drinks. A tavern(酒栈) in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more brandies to a customer whowas“obviously intoxicated”and later drove off the road, killing a nine-year-old boy.As the fatalities continue to occur daily in every state, some Americansare even beginning to think well of the 13 years of national prohibition ofalcohol that began in 1919, which President Hoover called the \drinking, but encouraged political corruption and organized crime. As with the becoming drug trade, there is no easy solution.16. Drunken driving has become a serious problem in America because ____.A. most drunken drivers drive their cars at top speedB. most drivers regard heavy drinking are part of the American macho imageC. fatalities caused by drunken driving have been greatly increased感谢您的阅读,祝您生活愉快。

That is almost l out of every 3 people in the United States. Some people go on diets. This means they eat less of certain foods, especially fats and sugars. people exercise with special equipment, take diet pills, or even have surgery. Losing weight is hard wor it can also cost a lot of money. So why do so many people in the United States want to lose weight?Many people in the United States worry about not looking young and attractive. For many people, looking good also means being thin. Other people worry about their health. Many doctors say being overweight is not healthy. But are Americans really fat?Almost 30 million Americans weigh at least 20 percent more than their ideal weight. In fact, the United States is the most overweight country in the world. "The stored fat of adult Americans weighs 2.3 trillion pounds," says University of Massachusetts anthropologist( 人类学家 ) George Americans. He says burning off that stored energy would produce enough power for 900,000 cars to go 12,000 miles.Losing weight is hard work, but most people want to find a fast and easy way to take off fat. Bookstores sell lots of diet books. These books tell readers how to lose weight. Each year, dozens of new hooks like these are written. Each one boasts to help people to get rid of fat.11.

One of them was from my school days, when our ninth grade teacher, Miss Raber, would pick out words from Readers Digest to test our vocabulary.Today, more than 45 years later, I always check out "It pays to Enrich Your Word Power" first when the Digest comes each month. I am impressed with that idea, word power. Readers Digest knows the power that words have to move people to entertain, inform and inspire. The Digest editors know that the big word isn't always the best word. Take just one example, a Quotable Quote from the February 1985 issue: "Time is a playful thing. It slips quickly and drinks the day like a bowl of milk. "Seventeen words, only two of them more than one syllable, yet how much they convey ! That's usually how it is with Reader s Digest. The small and simple can be profound.As chairman of a foundation to restore the Statue of Liberty, I've been making a lot of speeches lately. I keep them fairly short. I use small but vivid words: words like "hoe" , "guts", "faith" and "dreams". Those words that move people and say so much about the spirit of America.Don't get me wrong. I'm not against using big words, when it is right to do so, but I have also learned th small word can work a small miracle-if it's the right word, in the right place, at the right time. It's a"secre that I hope I will never forget.16. The passage is mainly about ____.A. one of the many old memoriesB. using simple words to express profound ideasC. Readers Digest and school speechesD. how to make effective speeches17. It seems that Reader's Digest is a magazine popular with ____.A. people of all agesB. teenagersC. school teachersD. elderly readers18.The example the author gives in the second paragraph might mean ____.A. one spends his day playing and drinkingB. don't waste your time as one doesC. time slips easily if you don't make good use of itD. time is just like drinking milk from a bowl19.The author's "secret" is ____.A. to avoid using big words at any timeB. to use words that have the power to move peopleC. to work a miracle by using a small wordD. to use small and simple words where possible20. According to the author, well-chosen words can give people ____.A. hope, courage, and ideasB. confidence, determination, and strengthC. pleasure, knowledge, and encouragementD. entertainment, information, and power Part Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure(20﹪, 25minutes)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

Words and FeelingsB. Words,Gestures and FeelingsC. Gestures and FeelingsD. Culture and UnderstandingPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage .The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are “copper〞 and “bobby〞. The first name comes form the verb “to cop〞 ( which is also slang ) , meaning “to take〞or“to capture〞 , and the second comes form the first name of Sir Robert Peel , a 19th century politician , who was the founder of the police force as we know it today . An early nickname for the policeman was “peeler〞 , but this one has died out .Whatever we may call them , the general opinion of the police seems to be a favorable one , except , of course , among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more derogatory nicknames which originated inAmerica , such as “fuzz〞or “pig〞 . Visitors to England seem to be very impressed by the English police . It has , in fact , because standing joke that the visitor to Britain , when asked for his views of the country , will always say , at some point or other , “I think your policemen are wonderful〞.Well , the British bobby not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character . A music-hall song of some years ago was called “If You Want To Know The Time , Ask A Policeman 〞 . Nowadays , most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policeman . In London , the policeman spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else .Two things are immediately noticeable to the stranger when he sees an English policeman for the first time . The first is that does not carry a pistol and the second is that he wears a very distinctive type of headgear , the policeman’s helmet . His helmet , together with his height , enables an English policeman to be time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a pistol and than his helmet should be taken form him , but both suggestions are resisted by the majority of the public and the police themselves .6. Nowadays British people call the policeman________.A.pigB.peelerC.bobbyD.fuzz7.Which of following statements is TRUE?A.There are fewer criminals in America than in Britain .B.B.The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors .C.The English bobby is friendly but not helpful .D.The English police enjoy having pistols .8.If you see an English policeman for the first time , you will probably notice at once that_______.A.he often tells people time C.he has a helmet on the headB.he is usually very helpful D.he wears special clothes9.That an English policeman can be seen form some distance is______.A.a standing jokeB.of no helpD.of some helpC.strange and funny10.Visitors praise the English police because______.A.they are police and helpful C.they often give thanksB.they obey ordersD.they are armed with modern equipmentPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage .It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory . The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions , the bases for the decisions we make , and the roots of our habits and skills are to be found in our past experiences , which are brought into the present by memory .Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for latter for later use . It not only includes “remembering〞things like arithmetic or historical facts but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves . Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile . Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat .Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines . Computers , for example , contain devices for storing data for later use . It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being . The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “words〞—ready for instant use . An average American teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English . However , this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored . Consider , for example , the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight .The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence of human beings . A large part of a person’s memory is in terms of words and combinations of words .11.According to the passage , memory is considered to be________.A.the basis for decision making and problem solvingB.the ability to store information for future useC.an intelligence typically possessed by human beingsD.the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words12.The comparison between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that______.A puter’s memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager’sB puter’s memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being’sC puter’s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenager’sD puter’s memory capacity is the same as a teenager’s13.It is implied in the passage that______.A.only human beings have problem-solving intelligenceB.a person’s memory is different from a computer’s in every respectC.animals can solve very simple problemsD.animals solve problems by instinct rather than intelligence14.The phrase “in term of〞in the last sentence can be best replaced by “______〞 .A.in connection with C.consistingB.expressed by D.by means of15.The main idea of the passage is________.A.what life would be like without memoryB.memory is of vital importance to lifeC.how a person’s memory is different form an animal’s or a computer’sD.what memory carriesPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage .Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people . A great deal of communication is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech . If we travel in buses , buy thing in shops , or eat in restaurants , we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions , receive news or comment ,and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society .Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society . Two things , above others , have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry . Firstly , inventiveness has led to advances in printing , telecommunications , photography , radio and television . Secondly , speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news , which itself is often almost eclipsed〔黯然失色〕by international news .No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority . In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate , but today there are public libraries . Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema , but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme the is being channeled into millions of homes .Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information . The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information ,education and entertainment .The printing , broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing , educating and entertaining .Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part , the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse . However , the mass media are with us for better or for worse , and there is no turning back .16.The first paragraph emphasizes the ______ of face-to-face contact in social settings .efulnessB.limitationC.natureD.creativity17.The development of the communication industry in contemporary society results form ______.A.the advances and revolutions C.the art of mass communicationB.the inventiveness and speed D.the advances and speed18.It is implied in the passage that _______ .A.local news still takes a significant placeB.National news is becoming more popularC.Local news used to be the main source of informationD.International news is the fastest transmitted news19.Which of the following statements is NOT true ?A.Public libraries have replaced private libraries .B.To possess information used to be a privilege .C munication means more than transmission .D munication influences the way of life and thinking .20.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the writer is______.A.concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaB.happy about the drastic changes in the mass mediaC.pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD.Indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass mediaPart II Vocabulary and Structure〔共40 小题,每题1 分,共40 分〕Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part .

江苏省2023年五年一贯制高职“专转本”考试英语统考试卷(90分钟)I. Reading ComprehensionPassage OneThe TV play Zheng He is broadcasted on CCTV and the great Chinese traveler comes gradually back to us. It reminds us of a lot of excitement.Zheng He, the Columbus of the east, was an amazing man. He was born in 1371 and, 11 years later, was caught by the army of a rich young man called Zhu Di and made to word for him. Over time the rich man saw that Zheng He was very clever and strong and they became close friends. In 1403, Zhu Di was made the king of China and asked Zheng He to join his new government.The King wanted to learn more about the world and show other countries his power. He ordered many new ships to be built and made Zheng He the leader. Between 1405 and 1433, he led seven sea ships to different parts of the world. He certainly traveled to India, Africa and the Middle East. Some people insist that his ships may have even reached South Africa and Australia.Each trip lasted between two and four years and it is believed he sailed more than 50,000 kilometers during his travels. With 28,000 men and over 300 ships, such as boats for food, water and even soldiers’ horses, Zheng He led a fleet whose size would not be equaled by Europeans for over 500 years.On these trips, he brought with him many Chinese goods like silk and medicine to give to the foreign kings or to sell for local goods. He returned from each trip with boats filled with expensive things such as gold and jewellery, foreign guests and strange animals like a giraffe.It is a pity that we may never learn everything about Zheng He’s travels. After he died in 1433, the new king, who thought these trips were unlucky and cost too much, had them stopped and he burned almost all the books a bout Zheng He’s travels. It is only in the last 50 years, that historians have carefully studied the adventures of the great Zheng He.1. Why did the Chinese King order Zheng He to sail to many different countries?A. To bring new countries under the control of China.B. To show the world his power.C. To receive gifts from the kings of other countries.D. To discover unusual animals.2. What do we know about Zheng He from the passage?A. He sailed across the world.B. Each of the trips lasted one year.C. He died at the age of 62.D. He was a successful soldier.3. Which of the following did Zheng He bring with him from China?A. GoldB. JewelleryC. MedicineD. Giraffes4. What happened after Zheng He died?A. He was forgotten forever.B. His ships were all destroyed.C. The new king wrote a book about himD. Sea trips to foreign countries were stopped.5. In what order did the following happen?a. Zhu Di become the King.b. Zheng He was caught by soldiers.c. The books about Zheng He were all burned.d. Foreigners were invited to China.e. Zheng He visited India.f. New ships were built.A. e-b-a-f-d-cB. b-a-e-d-c-fC. f-a-b-d-c-eD. b-a-f-e-d-cPassage TwoWhen John was growing up, other kids feel sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the rubbish and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “Boys who worked in the home or co mmunity gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society,” said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery, “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”Vaillant’s study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men’s mental-health scores with their boyhood-activity scores. Scores were given to such things as part-time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.The link between what the men had down as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working –at any age –is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence – the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn’t everything. As Tolstoy once said “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one’s work.”6. What do we know about John?A. He enjoyed his career and marriage.B. He had few childhood playmates.C. He received little love from his family.D. He was envied by others in his childhood.7. Vaillant’s words in Paragraph 2 serve as __________.A. a description of personal values and social valuesB. an analysis of how work was related to competenceC. an example for parents’ expectations of their childrenD. an explanation why some boys grew into happy men8. Vaillant’s team obtained their fin dings by __________.A. recording the boys’ effort in schoolB. evaluating the men’s mental healthC. comparing different sets of scoresD. measuring the men’s problem-solving ability9. What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4?A. quick to reactB. having a thin edgeC. clear and definiteD. sudden and rapid10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Competent adults know more about love than work.B. Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.C. Love brings more joy to people than work does.D. Independence is the key to one’s success.Passage ThreeAlthough some traditional meals in Britain, like roast beef and pudding or fish and chips, remain popular, there had been a significant change in eating habits among the population over the last ten years or so. The increase in the consumption of rice and pasts may be partly responsible for the decline (下降) in that of potatoes. The consumption of meat – with the exception of that of poultry (禽类) which is now at a record level – has also fallen. Skimmed milk now constitutes more than half of the total household consumption of liquid milk. There has been a decline in the total consumption of cooking and spreading fats, with large falls in butter usage. Instead, the consumption of vegetable and salad oils and reduced fat spreads increase rapidly. A switch in fish consumptionaway from fresh white fish towards canned fish and shellfish has been evident. There has been a small increase in the intake (摄入) of fibre (纤维).Britain has many restaurants, offering cuisine from almost every country. Chinese, Italian and Greek food style restaurants are among the most popular.11. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The increase in the consumption of British traditional foodB. The popularity of traditional food in BritainC. The change of eating habits in BritainD. The popularity of foreign restaurants in Britain12. What causes the fall in the consumption of potatoes?A. The fall of the consumption of meatB. The increase of the consumption of rice and pastsC. The rise of the consumption of poultryD. The eating of traditional meals13. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. People prefer canned fish and shellfish to fresh white fish.B. People like fresh white fish better than canned fish and shellfish.C. It is evident that fresh white fish is eaten more than canned fish and shellfish.D. Fish consumption increases the intake of fibre.14. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The consumption of meat has declined.B. Skimmed milk consumption is popular now.C. Butter is now not often used in cookingD. Chicken is consumed less than other meat.15.

ClozeMany teachers believe that the responsibility (责任,职责) for learning lies with the student. 36 a long reading assignment is given, teachers expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading. The 37 student is considered to be one who learns for the sake of 38 , not the one interested only in getting high grades. Sometimes homework is returned 39 brief written comments but without a grade. Even if a grade is not given, the student is 40 for learning the material assigned. When research is assigned, the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with 41 guidance. It is the 42 responsibility to find books, magazines, and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain 43 a university library works, they expect students, particularly graduate students, to be able to search for the reference 44 in the library.

2021江苏专转本英语真题及答案

2021江苏专转本英语真题及答案江苏省 2021 年普通高校专转本统一英语考试第一卷(共 100 分)Part I Reading Comprehension(共 20 题,每题 2 分,共 40 分) Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.American researchers have developed a technique that may become animportant tool in fighting AIDS. The technique stops the AIDS virus from attacking its target-cells in the body's defense system. When AIDS virusenters the blood, it searches for blood cells called T4 lymphocytes (淋巴细胞). The virus connects to the outside of T4 lymphocytes, then forces its way inside. There it directs the cells' genetic (基因的) material to produce copies of the AIDS virus. This is how AIDS spreads.Researchers think they may be able to stop AIDS from spreading by preventing virus from connecting to T4 cells. When AIDS virus finds a T4 cell, it actually connects to a part of the cell called CD4 protein.Researchers want to fool the virus by putting copiesor clones of the CD4 protein into the blood. This way the AIDS virus will connect to the cloned protein instead of the real ones. Scientists use the genetic engineering methods to make the clones. Normally a CD4 protein remains on the T4 cell at all times. The AIDS virus must go to it.In a new technique, however, the cloned CD4 protein is not connected to a cell. It floats freely, so many more can be put into the blood to keep the AIDS virus away from realCD4 proteins on T4 cells. One report says the AIDS virus connects to thecloned proteins j ust as effectively as to real protein. That report was based on tests with blood cells grown in labs. The technique is just now beginning t o be tested in animals. If successful, it may be tested in humans within a year. 1. The new technique can ________. A. cure AIDS B. kill the AIDS virusC. prevent the AIDS virus from spreadingD. produce new medicines for AIDS2. When the AIDS virus enters the blood, it is reproduced by ________. A. the inside of the virus itself B. any blood cells in the body C. the CD4 protein D. the genetic material of T4 cells3 The AIDS virus connects to cloned proteins instead of to the real ones because ________. A. the cloned proteins stay on the T4 cellsB. the cloned proteins can float freely in the bloodC. it connects to cloned proteins more effectively than to the real onesD. the cloned proteins are made by genetic engineering methods 4. Which ofthe following statements is NOT true?A. The new technique has been tested in labs.B. The new technique isbeing tested in animals. C. The new technique may be tested in humans. D. The new technique is now under clinical test. 5 Which of the following could bethe best title of this passage?A. AIDS---a Fatal Disease.B. A New Technique in fighting AIDS.C. A Report on the Spread of AIDS Virus.D. The Technique of Cloned CD4 Protein.Passage TWOQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.During the early ears of last century, wheat was seen as the verylifeblood of Western Canada.When the crops were good, the economy was good; when the crops failed,there was depression. People on city streets watched the yields and the priceof wheat with almost as much feeling as if they wee growers. The marketing of wheat became an increasingly favorite topic of conversation. War set the stage for the most dramatic events in marketing the western crop. For years, farmers mistrusted speculative(投机的) grain selling as carried on through the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Wheat prices were generally low in the autumn, but farmers could not wait for markets to improve. It had happened too often that they sold their wheat soon after harvest when farm debts were coming due(到期),only to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various occasions, producer groups asked for firmer controls, but governments had no wish to become involved, at least not until wartime wheat prices threatened to run wild.Anxious to check(控制) inflation(通货膨胀) and rising living costs, the federal government appointed a board(董事会) of grain supervisors to handle deliveries from the crops of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was suspended (暂停) and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle the crop of 1919, the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board, withfull authority to buy, sell, and set prices.6. The author uses the term “lifeblood”(Line1, para1.) to indicate that wheat was _______. A. difficult to produce in large quantities B. was easilyaffected by animals and plants C. essential to the health of the country D. expensive to gather and transport7. According to the passage, most farmers’ debts had to be paid__________. A. when the autumn harvest had just been completed B. because wheat prices were highC. as soon as the Winnipeg Grain Exchange demanded payment D, when crop failure caused depression8. According to the passage, wheat prices became uncontrolled because of conditions caused by _____.A. farmersB. supervisorsC. weatherD. war 9. The w ord “check” (Line 1, Para.3) could best be replaced by which of the following? A. control B. investigate C. finance D. reinforce 10. According to the passage, a preliminary step in the creation of the Canadian Wheat Board was the appointment of ______.A. the Winnipeg Grain ExchangeB. a board of supervisorsC. several producer groupsD. a new government Passage ThreeQuestions 10 to 15 are based on the following passage.Yellowstone Park is visited by two million people every summer and is the oldest, largest and most visited wilderness in the world. All are welcome and are invited on arrival to leave their cars and explore on foot. Yellowstone, a national park for ever 100 years, lies in the State of Wyoming, to the east of the Rocky Mountain. It is also in the center of the North American continent, midway between the equator and the North Pole, at a height of over 2300 meters. The very cold winter in this area closes the park around mid-November andlasts until April or even May. In February thetemperature falls as low as 60F degree below freezing, and the animalsthat spend winter in the park are best able to live in the conditions such as bison, wapiti, beavers and otters. Fortunately, the area around the hotsprings and geysers becomes a centrally heated oasis(绿洲) in the desert ofsnow, providing warmth and a certain mount of food for the animals. Bison used to go around the plains in their millions until they were hunted almostto extinction(灭绝) by white men with guns. In 1900 only two dozen of them remained in the park. However, since they become a protected animal, their numbers have risen to over two thousand. The end of winter is the mostdangerous time for the animals as food becomes even less and they take great risks(冒险) to find it, such as walking across thin ice. This period is known as “winterkill”, when many of the weak and the old die, often from being too tired out, thus providing food for scavengers such as the coyote (a kind of wolf). With the arrival of summer, plants reappear and the animals fill themselves with rich food. The young grow strong and the tourists return to enjoy the warmth or 4 months before Yellowstone Park freezes over again.11 Bison used to go in danger. With the protection, the number is ________ now. A. falling down B. going up C. staying the same D. becoming less12The Rocky Mountains are _____________ A. in the center of Wyoming B. to the west of Yellowstone Park C. in the north of Yellowstone Park D. tothe east of Yellowstone Park 13Which of the following is NOT an animal? A.otter B. beaver C. geysers D. coyote 14.At the end of the 19thcentury_______________. A. bison ran around the plains in their millions B. bison were hunted almost to extinction C. bison became a kind of protected animal D. their number rose more than 200 15.From the text, we can know that “ scavengers in the last paragraph are_______________ A. animals which feedon other dead animalsB. places where water comes naturally from the groundC. birds which live in grass seedsD. animals which always eat as much as possible Passage FourQuestions 15 to 20 are based on the following passage.What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoy life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologist(心理学家) tell us and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning ofcolor preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tellus that we don’t choose our favourite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(压抑). Lightand bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a factthat factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray. Remember, then,that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things.

Part I Reading Comprehension(共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions:There are4passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there arc4choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions1to5are based on the following passage.“Cool”is a word with many meanings.Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold.As the world has changed,the word has had many different meanings.“Cool”can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famous car in the street,maybe you will say,“It’s cool.”You may think,“He’s so cool,”when you see your favorite footballer.We all maximize the meaning of“cool”.You can use it instead of many words such as“new”or “surprising”.Here’s an interesting story we can use to show the way the word is used.A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall they had visited.On one student’s paper was just the one sentence,“It’s so cool.”Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity(贫乏)of words.Without“cool”,some people have no words to show the same meaning.So it is quite important to keep some credibility.Can you think of many other words that make your life as colorful as the word“cool”?I can.And I think they are also very cool.1.According to the passage,the word“cool”has had▲.A.only one meaningB.only a few meaningsC.many different meaningsD.the same meaning2.In the passage,the word"express"(Para.2)means▲.A.seeB.showC.knowD.feel3.If you are▲something,you may say,"It's cool."A.interested inB.careful aboutC.afraid ofD.angry about4.The writer gives an example to show he is▲the way the word“cool”is used.A.moved byB.strange toC.dissatisfied withD.unfamiliar with5.In the passage,the word”they”refers to▲..A.many other colorsB.many other peopleC.many other meaningsD.many other wordsPassage TwoQuestions6to10are based on the following passageWhen we talk about intelligence,we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school.By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new situation.If we want to test intelligence,we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do.For example,when in a new situation,an intelligent person thinks about the situation,not about himself or what might happen to him.He tries to find out all be can,and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it.He probably isn't sure how it will all work out,but at least he tries.And if he cannot make things work out right,he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed,he just tries to learn from his mistakes.An intelligent person,even if he is very young,has a special outlook on life,a special feeling about life,and how he fits into it.If you look at children,you'll see great difference between what we call“bright”children and“non-bright”children.They are actually two different kinds of people,not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence.For example,the bright child really wants to find out about life-he tries to get in touch with everything around him.But the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world:he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.6.According to this passage,intelligence is▲.A.the ability to study wellB.the ability to do well in schoolC.the ability do deal with lifeD.the ability to get high scores on some tests7.In a new situation,an intelligent person▲.A.cares more about himselfB.is sure of the result he will getC.concentrates on what to do about the situationD.knows more about what might happen to him8.If an intelligent person failed,he would▲.A.try not to feel ashamedB.learn from his mistakesC.try to regret as much as possibleD.make sure what result he would get9.Bright children and non-bright children▲.A.are two different types of childrenB.have different knowledge about the worldC.have difference only in their way of thinkingD.are different mainly in their degree of cleverness10.An unintelligent person can become intelligent if he▲.A.keeps more to himselfB.stay in his dream worldC.has a wall before himD.tries to find out what life isPassage ThreeQuestions11to15are based on the following passage.Nowadays,Internet shopping is becoming increasingly popular and many high street stores and supermarkets are now offering this facility.You can shop for just about anything in the comfort of your own home,and all you need to do is to sit in your armchair and order things directly on the Internet.Shopping on the Internet offers convenience and time-saving benefits to shoppers,as compared to traditional storefront(店面)shopping.People can shop for a variety of products on the Internet,ranging from physical products,such as books,CDs,clothes and food,to information products,such as online news or magazines stories.The Internet operates24hours a day,seven days a week,unlike traditional storefronts which have fixed opening hours.No wonder that some research findings indicate that consumers views the Internet as an“instrument of convenience”.Despite the advantages of Internet shopping,there are also disadvantages of Internet shopping.The main disadvantage is that you cannot actually see the products you are buying or check their quality. Sometimes the computer image of the products can hardly compare with those that can be touched for quality and put on for comfort.Furthermore,Internet shopping cannot provide the social interaction and the sense of community.Many people will find it completely unpleasant because they may miss the opportunity to talk to friends.Some people are worried about paying for goods using credit cards,so Internet companies are now finding ways to make online payment safe.As a new type of shopping,Internet shopping is bound to become more and more popular in the future. Moreover,if the problem of the security of the payment can be overcome,there will be more people willing to try online shopping.11.According to the passage,the greatest advantage of internet shopping is▲.A.the reasonable priceB.the quality of the goodsC.the convenience it brings to youD.the speed the goods are delivered to you12.The phrase“physical products”(Para.2)means▲.A.anything you can useB.things useful for health careC.things connected with studyD.things you can see or feel13.Online news and magazine stories are▲.A.not yet available on the InternetB.the most popular products on the Internetrmation products available on the InternetD.everywhere on the Internet and free to download14.If can be learn from the third paragraph that▲.A.a delivery charge discourages people from shopping onlineB.the quality of the goods is not always exactly what you expectC.online payment is so safe that people can shop on the Internet securelyD.people who enjoy the social experience will not choose online shopping15.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that▲.A.shopping is made easier on the InternetB.shopping on the Internet is a relatively new shopping modeC.sometimes people worry about the money they pay onlineD.people need to get used to computer system for a secure way of shoppingPassage FourQuestions16to20are based on the following passageOpen up most fashion magazines and you will see incredibly thin models with impossible hair and wearing unreasonably expensive,impracticably styled clothes.But shouldn’t clothes be comfortably durable and make a principle of being simple for the individual who wears them?Why are we constantly told that we need to buy new clothes and add fresh pieces to our collection?Fashions change year after year so lots of people can make piles of money.If folks are convinced that they need a different look each season,and that this year’s sweater’s length and shoes style are important, they can be persuaded to buy.The fashion industry would have you ignore your shortcomings and just make you feel beautiful and happy.In fact,it is not only a phenomenon we can find in people’s dressing.Fashion controls our lives.Fashion controls what we wear,what we eat,what we drink,the way we cut our hair,the makeup we buy and use,the color of the cars we drive.Fashion even controls our ideas.You don’t believe me?How many of your friends are vegetarians?Why are they vegetarians Because it is fashionable!Where does fashion come from?Often the reasons are quite logical.Scientists and historians study the fashions of the past and discover the secrets of each fashion.When girls see an attractive guy,their blood pressure rises and their lips become redder.That’s why guys think that girls wearing lipstick are beautiful.Why do guys shave their heads?In the past soldiers shaved their heads to kill the insects that lived in their hair.Now guys shave their heads so that they look strong and masculine,like soldiers.People spend a lot of time and money on fashion.But are they wasting their money?Changes in fashion help to develop new technologies.Changes in style create work for people all over the world.Many people work in the fashion industry,particularly in the fashion capitals of London,New York,Paris and Milan.And finally,fashion makes you feel good,doesn’t it?When you are dressed in the latest style,dancing to the most fashionable music,after watching the latest hit film,you feel great,don’t you?16.In the first paragraph,the attitude towards the models and their hairstyles and clothes is▲.A.UnbiasedB.IndifferentC.CriticalD.Appreciative.17.It is indicated in the first paragraph that clothes should be▲.fortable and durableB.new and freshC.expensive and fashionableD.simple and unique18.The fashion industry makes profits by▲.A.creating a need in youB.making you look more beautifulC.selling the products at high pricesD.helping you get rid of your shortcomings19.According to the author,what has been found about fashions by the scientists and the historians is▲.A.incredibleB.amazingC.reasonableD.creative20.The passage mentions the advantages of fashion EXCEPT that▲.A.it can help promote technological developmentB.it can help people to remain up-to-dateC.it can create more job opportunities for peopleD.it can make people achieve a great feelingPartⅡVocabulary and

江苏省2013年普通高校专转本考试真题Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 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 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.When Mrs. Joseph Groeger died recently in Vienna, Austria, people asked the obvious question. “W hy did she live to be 107” Answers were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who had reached the age of 100. What was surprising was that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities. Although cities are often regarded as unhealthy places, city living provides benefits that country living may lack. One factor seems to be important to the longevity(长寿) of those interviewed.This factor is exercise. In the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than to wait for a bus. Even taking public transportation often requires some walking. Smaller apartment houses have no elevators, and so people must climb stairs. City people can usually walk to local supermarkets. Since parking spaces are hard to find, there is often no choice but to walk.On the other hand, those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day. In fact, the opposite is often true. To go to school, work, or almost anywhere else, they must ride in cars.1.The Vienna survey may help to explain __________.A.the complaints of people in apartment housesB.the causes of Mrs. Groeger’s deathC.the longevity of people like Mrs. GroegerD.the image of cities in general2.The second paragraph lists some ___________.A.disadvantage of walkingB.occasions for walking in city lifeC.problems of city livingments made by city people3.To reach the third floor of a building, it would probably be most healthful ___________.A.to take the elevatorB.to walk up the stairsC.to ride in a carD.to find an alternative walking4.People who live in the country usually do more driving than walking because ___________.A.they don’t live near business areasB.they don’t need exerciseC.they don’t like walkingD.they can’t afford to take the bus5.We can draw a conclusion from this passage that _________.A.air pollution is not seriousB.anyone can live to be 107C.country people should move to citiesD.walking is a healthful exercisePassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.The Bedouin people, a tribe living in the deserts of Arabia and Northern African, think most highly of people who show loyalty. To them loyalty does not mean that one is devoted to a country, a place, or a leader. Loyalty means being faithful to one’s family and tribe.The Bedouin people are proud of their ancestors(祖先). They do not admire a hero from an ordinary or poor family as much as one who comes from an honored family. They especially respect those who have inherited(继承) a good family name and then have passed it on to their children.A man’s position among his people depends upon his ancestors, relatives, and fellow tribesmen. If they are honored, he is also honored. If they are disagreed, he, too, is disgraced. Therefore, one carefully guards the honor of his family and his tribe.A man can protect his family’s honors by being brave and generous and by giving protection to those who ask for it. He also guards it by carefully watching the women of his family.A Bedouin woman cannot bring honor to her family, but she can bring disgrace. Even if a woman only looks as if she has done something wrong, she may be killed. The honor of her family depends upon her virtue(美德).6. The best title for this passage can be __________.A. Life of the Bedouin PeopleB. Women’s Position in the Bedouin FamilyC. Bedouin People’s Idea of Loyalty and HonorD. How to Guard Honors7. The Bedouin people think most highly of one who is ______.A. devoted to his country and his leaderB. from an ordinary familyC. proud of his ancestor and relativesD. faithful to his family and tribe8. It is learned from the passage that ___________.A. a hero from an honored family is more admiredB. one can not live in the tribe without a good family nameC. all the Bedouin people are kind, brave and generousD. family traditions can never be passed to children9. The word “disgraced” (Para. 3) means “ __________”.A. disappearedB. disappointedC. dishonoredD. discouraged10. It is implied in the passage that the Bedouin women are __________.A. treated as the equals of menB. respected for what they doC. not interested in positionD. not respected as much as menPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Up until about 100 years ago, newspaper in the United States attracted only the most serious readers. They used no illustrations (插图) and the articles were about politics or business.Two men changed that---Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World and William Randolph Hearst of the New York Journal. Pulitzer bought the New York World in 1883. He changed it from a traditional newspaper into a very exciting one overnight. He added lots of illustrations and he told his reporters to write articles on every crime they could find. And they did. One woman reporter even pretended she was mad and was sent to a hospital. She then wrote many articles about the poor treatment of patients in those hospitals where madmen were kept. In 1895, Hearst came to New York from California. He wanted the Journal to be more exciting than the World. He also wanted it to be cheaper, so he lowered the price by a penny. Hearst attracted attention because his newspaper heading were bigger than any one else’s. He often said, “Big print makes big news.”Pulitzer and Hearst did anything they could to sell newspaper. For example, Hearst sent Frederic Remington, the famous illustrator, to draw pictures of the Spanish-American War. When he got there, he told Hearst that no fighting was going on. Hearst answered, “ You provide the pictures. I’ll provide the war.11. About a century ago, American newspaper carried news about __________.A. all kinds of exciting newsB. crimes and mad peopleC. the poor treatment of patientsD. serious matters only12. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following statements is TRUEA. Pulitzer and a woman news reporter changed the world overnight.B. Pulitzer bought the Journal with the help of his reporter.C. A woman news reporter pretended to be mad.D. A woman reporter became mad and was sent to a hospital.13. Hearst attracted readers’ attention by ______________.A. using bigger headingsB. reporting big war newsC. raising the price of the newspaperD. reporting politics and business only14. __________ was asked to draw war pictures.A. HearstB. RemingtonC. PulitzerD. A woman reporter15. This passage tells us that ________.A. Pulitzer and Hearst were the most famous reporters of the United StatesB. newspaper owners sometimes hired mad men as their news reportersC. the world and the journal were not popular newspaper at that timeD. Pulitzer and Hearst used every possible means to win over each otherPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.It is hard to imagine life without Arabic numbers(数字). No other number system ever invented has a simple way to write a number like 1984. In Roman numeral, it comes out like this MCMLXXXIV. Imagine how difficult it would be for a school pupil to remember it!The Arabs, however, call their numbers “Indian numerals”. This is probably because they got the original idea a long time ago from India. There were no printed newspapers or scientific magazine then, so mathematics traveled along the same routes that silk did, as businessmen sold and bought goods. The Arabs took the new numbers and made improvements that quickly led to advances in technology.The achievement of Arabic technology can be seen from a passage in a 10th-century book about an Arabic city:” The neighboring country showed the results of careful work in agriculture, trade, and industry. Rice and many other plants were grown in fields with water supplied by Arab engineers. The city included 900 public baths, stone-covered streets, fountains, and beautiful buildings.” At this time, London was a small town with dirty streets, and Berlin was a farming village. In fact, cities outside the Arab world did not reach the same level of social development until centuries later.16.
